channel tomorrow. time for a look at the weather. here's ben rich. good afternoon. it felt we flipped the calendar back to winter over the weekend. it turned much colder from the north, it remains rather chilly through today, blustery as well but dry for most of us. having said that, the view from space, you can see some speckled shower clouds which have been pushing on across northern and eastern parts of the uk, we will continue to see some showers through the afternoon across parts of eastern england and the northern part of scotland. largely dry further west but for the far north, east and south of the uk, very wind. kent, potential of 50 mile an hour gusts so that is just accentuating a chilly feel with temperatures this afternoon between 9-14. temperatures this afternoon between 9—14. through this evening and overnight, the showers in eastern england tend to fade, similarfor northern ireland but you'll see some showers pushing in from the north

across scotland with temperatures generally hovering around about freezing. some spots seeing a touch of frost taking us into tomorrow morning. tomorrow, high—pressure out to the west but this frontal system will bring some rain into northern scotla nd will bring some rain into northern scotland with some snow as well as we see a renewed surge of cold air. for england, wales and northern ireland, a largely fine start with sunshine but increasing amounts of cloud and the odd shower into the afternoon. scotland, here comes the rain at snow likely on the back edge, even 100 metres above sea level as cold air attacks in. these are the temperatures at 4pm tomorrow, aberdeenjust 5 are the temperatures at 4pm tomorrow, aberdeen just 5 degrees. some spells of sunshine through scotla nd some spells of sunshine through scotland and through northern ireland england and wales, sunny spells with large amounts of cloud in the sky with one or two showers but not as wind as today across the south. tomorrow evening, that band of rain with snow mixing in pushing further southwards which should

clear away as we get into wednesday. a largely dry day on wednesday with cloud bubbling up and spreading out in the skies of a lot of cloud by the afternoon and temperatures, no great shakes, 7—15. those temperatures will start to lift a little at the end of the week with oui’ little at the end of the week with our area of little at the end of the week with ourarea of high little at the end of the week with our area of high pressure slightly changing shape. it builds more strongly towards the uk which cuts off the feed of very cold air from the north, bringing the airfrom off the feed of very cold air from the north, bringing the air from the north—west instead. initially not a heatwave, just less cold but things should warm up by the weekend come into the 20s down towards the south and a lot of dry weather on the way. back to you. a reminder of our top story... the prime minister is going to give more details amid claims of a lack of clarity over plans to get people working again. there will be a special programme hit on bbc one at three p m covering borisjohnson‘s

address to parliament with special coverage of the prime minister's press c0 nfe re nce coverage of the prime minister's press conference this evening taking questions from the public and press, with fiona bruce 7pm on bbc one. that's all from the bbc news at one, so it's goodbye from me, and on bbc one we nowjoin the bbc‘s news teams where you are. good afternoon. it's 1.30pm and here's your latest sports news. it's a big week ahead for the premier league with decisions being made as to whether the current season can resume and be completed. club officials are meeting today to continue talks on project restart. our sports news reporter laura scottjoins me now. laura, plenty for the clubs to discuss and even before talks began there seemed to be a number of dissenting voices? exactly, this will be a big week for finding out if there is an appetite

still to finish the season but as you mentioned, we are aware of about six or seven clubs resisting some of the plans involved in the so—called project restart. a lot of those seemingly reluctant to play at neutral venues but that would have to go through. it's either at neutral venues or no football for the season. there also concerns amongst players about their own health and welfare but clearly a lot to still be worked out and a lot of challenges still to be overcome in the coming days and weeks. and after today what is the next step likely to be? there is a shareholders meeting today of the premier league to try today of the premier league to try to finalise their return to training protocols and medical protocols covering things like testing, and then they plan to take those to consultations with players and managers later this week. more meetings of the governments medical experts as well. then a club a vote early next week but a lot could rest on what the government's guidance today means for the chances of the

premier league returning, so the picture could well become a lot clearer this afternoon but clearly a big meeting to take place with the clu bs big meeting to take place with the clubs and players and managers. laura scott, thank you very much. former fa chief executive mark palios believes clubs in the lower divisions may have to enter administration to secure their long—term survival. palios is now chairman of league one side tranmere, who could find out this week that their league is being cancelled, along with the league two campaign. when the premier league sort themselves out there may be more cash that comes down to give us an indication of a different way of sharing out the parachute payments etc. all along you can see at some stage you might even have to consider using the administration as a positive thing so insolvency doesn't necessarily mean the end of clu bs doesn't necessarily mean the end of clubs as we have seen in the past, but actually is a way of actually reshaping the situation clubs are m, reshaping the situation clubs are in, but there still have a hell of a

long way to go on noting the economic reality are starting to dawn on all parties. well, the government has given the green light for unlimited outdoor exercise for people in england from wednesday. that means golf courses can re—open, with people allowed to play on their own or with members of the same household. however, the policy hasn't changed in scotland. david rickman from the royal and ancient says there's nothing they can do to stop people crossing the border to play. i think golfers have been very respectful and completely understood the circumstances in which we are currently living and, above all, we all need to act reasonably responsibly with a greater emphasis on safety, so if one or two people choose to cross the border to play golf, then so be it.

the british horseracing authority is continuing talks with the government about a potential return for the sport following yesterday's address. it comes on the day that horse racing returned in france behind closed doors. there were empty seats in the paris longchamp stands for the first races in nearly eight weeks. in the feature race of the day the prix d'harcourt, the odds—on favourite "sottssas" failed to make to the top three with "shaman" taking victory. nice to see some live sport again, isn't it? that's all the sport for now. you can find more on all those stories on the bbc sport website. jane, see you later. thank you very much. as we've been hearing, the government is encouraging those who can't work from home to return to work. the construction industry has been cited as an example of one that could begin a return to normal. however, the industry itself says the rules around the opening

of building sites haven't always been clear with some remaining open throughout lockdown. brian berry is the ceo of the federation of master builders. good afternoon to you. good afternoon. clarity is what people are calling for so what do make of what you know so far of the prime minister plans? it's good that the prime minister has announced its 0k to go back to work. the construction industry could work until now there was confusion about the safety of going on site, so i think yesterday's announcement was very positive, but we do need to see the guidance about ppe and travelling to work which we are waiting to see at the moment. particularly given the latest 0ns figures, construction workers are more likely to die from covid—19. workers are more likely to die from covid-19. i haven't seen those figures myself, but obviously, we need to ensure the safety of construction workers, which is why it's important to know they can access ppe and that's been one of

the major issues and we have been calling on the government to clarify, and i'm hoping very much the guidance produced later today or tomorrow will say how building companies can access ppe so as not to divert it away from the front line. are you talking about the foreground, the mask, everything? construction workers will need it depending on whether work is being done. domestic work in peoples homes, they need to make sure they are protecting themselves and the householder, so we are recommending the use of masks to protect them and my members are saying words you access my members are saying words you a ccess fro m my members are saying words you access from and taking it away from the nhs, so we do need to know from government what they are saying about ppe to make sure it is safe for construction workers and householders to have building work done. and yet, here we are at this

stage of a pandemic, and many business sites have been open throughout. the government has a lwa ys throughout. the government has always had construction work can continue. there's a difference between a site and indoors. 0utside it could continue. indoors, the government said only essential work should continue. it has been a rather confusing message, i appreciate that, so that's why the prime minister is announcement yesterday going back to work was helpful, but it would have been helpful, but it would have been helpful if the guidance had been produced at the same time so we all understood how it would be safe to go back to work. what about the divergence between the nations which seems to be getting wider? does that bother you and cause problems because scotland said no, we don't wa nt because scotland said no, we don't want construction workers going back to work. it doesn't help we have different policies in the home nations. my members do cross—border work particularly between wales and england, so if there are different regulations in different parts of

the uk that's unhelpful to business. it causes more confusion. where possible, we would like to the home nations pulling together and following the same policies. the difficulty with this is we saw the shots from a helicopter this morning over construction sites, that to me to distance and doesn't seem to be happening as a rule. —— two metre distance. we have our own guidance on that and they will be cases where it is not possible and so it has to bea it is not possible and so it has to be a sensible common—sense approach, and that's why the use of ppe is so important, particularly in small confined spaces in peoples houses. it's impossible to say at all times two metres can be adhered to, but if it can't be, we need to make sure builders and clients are protected. everyone is concerned for safety serve somebody turns up at a building site or wherever, and doesn't feel safe, will they still get paid? will they be told to go

home? everyone needs to feel safe and employers have a duty to make sure the workplace complies with health and safety, so obviously nobody should be put into a situation where they don't feel safe and that the guidance we are giving our members, to actually only carry on working if it's safe to do so. 0k, on working if it's safe to do so. ok, it's really good to do so. thank you for your time this afternoon. willie walsh, chief executive of international airlines group, which runs british airways, appeared in front of mps on the transport select committee this morning. he said there was nothing positive in the prime minister's plan that was outlined last night. a very severe, very significant crisis and, quite honestly, the likelihood of it improving in the short—term is zero. the announcements yesterday of a 14—day period coming into the uk is...

well, it's definitely going to make it worse. there's nothing positive in anything i heard the prime minister say yesterday. so we had been planning to resume on a pretty significant basis of flying in july. i think we'll have to review that based on what the prime minister said yesterday. so how have the changes to the lockdown, proposed by the prime minister yesterday evening, gone down with the public? graham satchell has been finding out. it is now almost two months since the people of this country began to put up with restrictions on theirfreedoms... in sitting rooms across the united kingdom, people gathered last night in their millions to watch the prime minister. and you have shown the good sense to support those rules overwhelmingly. 0k, right, everyone know what they're doing? charlotte has been locked down with her three children and her parents, both in their 70s. i thought boris's speech was a little vague. for me as a mum and the owner

of a nursery, it sort of like quite a lot of clarity. i suppose i was a little disappointed because i wanted a few more clear guidelines to work with. charlotte has been home—schooling her three children. she wants things to get back to normal but worries, if her children do go back to school, they may spread the virus. and she is confused by the new message in england — not stay at home but stay alert. even my 11—year—old said, what does that mean, mummy? because it was all clear, we just stay at home, we keep safe, that is a very clear message. and now he was saying, so, we canjust go out to? and i said, no, you can only go out if you have to work, and if it is safe. and they have a perplexed eyebrow, and i think we are the same. it is thanks to your effort and sacrifice... james was watching the speech in liverpool. he runs three restaurants, employs 50 people.

we will hope to reopen at least some of the hospitality industry and other public places, provided they are safe and enforce social distancing. this is a promotional video for one of james's restaurants on albert dock in liverpool. reopening safely will be a huge challenge. the amount of space in kitchens, and washrooms, splash rooms, bathrooms, it's minimal. so, the safe working conditions problem is not going to go away, and many, many sites are just not suitable for opening with social distancing. so, work from home if you can, but you should go to work if you can't work from home. this part of last night's speech urging people back to work alarmed preity moyal, who works in a large office in canary wharf and would normally get the tube. will you be going to work this morning? no, i will not be going

to work this morning! no. it is very hard at rush—hour to maintain a two metre distance, people are normally nose to nose on the tube, newspaper to newspaper in the face on the tube, there is no vaccine, this virus is still out there. we will be driven not by mere hope... preity is particularly worried by studies showing a higher death rate for people of a minority ethnic background. and i must stress again that all of this is conditional. there's no vaccine. as a british asian, i know people that have passed unfortunately due to covid—19, and they are from an asian background like myself. there needs to be a higher protection for people who are more at high risk. by this experience, i believe we can be stronger and better than ever before. the prime minister was very careful to say last night that there could only be serious changes in england if the infection rate comes down and stays down. but his speech seems to have left many confused, with more questions than answers.

graham satchell, bbc news. more than 55,000 people have downloaded the nhs contact tracing app this week, which is being tested on the isle of wight. the app is part of a track and trace strategy, designed to identify and alert users who come into contact with anyone who tests positive for covid—19. 60% of the population in england would need to use the technology for it to be successful, and there are concerns around privacy. duncan kennedy reports. there's an app for everything. but not many can claim to save lives. this one is designed to do just that, by helping track those people with coronavirus and ease it out of our society. the man leading the team of around 60 that's developed it is doctor geraint lewis. in his first network interview, he told me that the response from people on the isle of wight has been "overwhelming" and that its roll—out to the rest

of england is now "imminent." in three, six, nine, 12 months from now, do you see the vast majority, tens of millions of people in britain, using this app? well, if we look at the rate of uptake on the island, i would hope it would happen much, much sooner than that. the aim of the app is to be here for the duration of the pandemic and then at the end of that it would probably be mothballed so that it's available if, heaven forbid, another pandemic were to come in the future. the app creates a series of electronic handshakes between smartphones. if one person is infected with covid—19 and tells the nhs, the other users who came close to him or her are alerted. but doctor lewis says this new app won't yet work on all phones. it can't be used, for example, with huawei phones, or older android and iphones. so he says he's encouraging people to update their operating systems and make sure they've got bluetooth technology. last week, mps said

the app raised concerns about the protection of people's data. doctor lewis says it complies with all data protection laws. 0n the isle of wight, 50,000 people have now downloaded it. it's not actually giving out any of my general information. so i feel quite safe with it. is that important to you? er, yeah, making sure that people actually don't get any of my information. yeah, that is important. we both downloaded it the first day it came out. and it seems to be working 0k, doesn't it? any issues, any concerns? not for our own personal phones, they've worked 0k. yeah. the app will be continually updated, so the current version will change. yourteam, yourapp, could save many, many lives. indeed. it's a huge weight on my shoulders. i've not had much sleep for the last few weeks, thinking about all the things that might go wrong. but, yes, i think it's part of a combination of different things which together will help us overcome this virus and hopefully return life

to normal as soon as we can. the app is one of several tools aimed at covid—19. this is science, people and technology, converging to overwhelm the disease of our age. duncan kennedy, bbc news, on the isle of wight. the pandemic is having all kinds of unexpected side effects borisjohnson said people peoples in reception in year one and six could go back first. jane mccubbin has been to a primary school in merseyside to see whether parents and pupils feel ready to return. this is a small slice of st elizabeth's primary school in merseyside. we miss them all. we hope in many ways that we see them, however obviously we hope it's safe for them to come back. and there's the rub. is it the right time

to get back to class? when will the government ring the school bell? alexis says now, linda says no. yes, i won't to go back. i'm really excited. it's too soon. lindsay and dean want this over, but it's complicated. are you bored? yeah, iam. to tea rs ? yes. i've got mixed feelings. he's got asthma. i really want to be sure he's safe to go back. if you had that certainty, you'd be springing on? getting him out of the house. yes, definitely, yeah. while lindsay's worried about her son's health, tony is worried about the health of other vulnerable family members. my parents are going to have take them to school and they are going to be outside the school gathering so it's not really going to contain the virus, is it? if the government says it's time for year 6 to go back, do you think you might take the decision then to go, "no, i'm keeping him home." yeah, i'd probably not let him go back to school. alicia has barely missed a school day. her mum is a carer so she is one of only 15 kids who have still been going to school every week

and she's struggling. you are really missing your best mate, aren't you? i want to give her a big hug and say i miss you. she's been getting really upset at times. the government might say we're going to slowly phase this in, maybe year 6 first of all. well, her school has two year 6 classes, so that's near enough 60 children going back to school all at once. almost all the parents i met felt a long way from confident about the idea of sending kids back into st elizabeth's playground long before the end of this school year. head teacher mr daniels wants clarity. the longer period of time we get to prepare, the better. june 1 is a date that is kind of being thrown around. it does seem like a very short timescale to get things back to normal, but we will see. most children might be itching to get back, but not all. leo is super aware of the virus which has changed his world. it's like when we go back to school and things start to change, it will be a bit weird

because you don't want to get distracted about it because you don't want to bring home an infection. you are saying, leo, the time isn't now, but dad...? i think the time possibly, if it's not now, it's not far away. if you're a child and your parents are both shielded, you could be a carrier, you don't want to take it home. that child can possibly be exempt but for those who aren't in that situation, i feel as though we should move towards the education because they need to get prepared for what's coming up next in their life. every family wants what is best for their kids. that means different things to different people. it's the homeschooling, isn't it? we're enjoying it, aren't we? well, a bit. what, enjoying it? i do really want to do my sats. no, he does, don't you — just to see how clever you really are. because i actually want someone who's actually professional to, like, teach me. by the way, he's not. lleyton is going to have to wait until at leastjune 1 for that, with guidance to schools

in england out later. in scotland, wales and northern ireland, parents will stay in the homeschooling hot seat for some weeks to come. jayne mccubbin, bbc news. as countries look for new ways to unlock society without exposing the elderly, one dutch care home has opened a customized glass cabin that keeps elderly people protected and isolated without forcing them to sacrifice seeing their loved ones. anna holligan reports scrubbing a shield to protect vulnerable people... ..from the invisible danger their loved ones may pose to them. this is what a family reunion looks like under lockdown. hi, mum. hello. the way so many of us have been keeping in touch with each other just don't make sense to everyone. for zoom, for half our residents it's too difficult for half our residents to understand. they are looking at an ipad

and thinking they are watching the picture or a video. they don't understand it is real life, real—time, so they don't respond. and in here they get the full picture. for me, being able to really see her, the way she walks, just her whole body and her body language is incredible. initially, it was really difficult and the family were trying to reassure mrs stope that this is the new normal but she was confused. she couldn't understand why she couldn't cuddle them. but they reassured her the 1.5 metre distance is being followed by everyone now you can see they're quite relaxed. this is a way for the family to reach out in person without the risk. everybody prefers to really see and touch and feel and hug your mum.

but it is better than nothing. but how do you explain to an 85—year—old woman with dementia who just lost her husband and went into a nursing home two weeks before lockdown that the whole world has changed, not just hers? she thinks she is in some kind of prison but we are all stuck at home. it's happier that i can see them. but this is a strange world for me. so i have been always very happy and now i am a bit less happy. this glasshouse offers a quick fix, a chance to remind relatives in real life that they haven't been forgotten.

now it's time for a look at the weather with ben rich. hello there. it felt as if we turn the calendar backin it felt as if we turn the calendar back in the wrong direction over the weekend. we were put back into winter by a cold northerly wind and in that northerly flow you can see on the satellite picture from early on the satellite picture from early on some speckles of showers. many places remaining dry through today with spells of sunshine. we will a lwa ys with spells of sunshine. we will always see one or two showers particular across northern scotland released in scotland and eastern england. temperatures too impressive for this time of year. 9—111. it stays windy as well and they will only slowly ease as we go through tonight. we will see further showers pushing on across northern parts of scotland, some of these wintry, a few of them into northern ireland and england but not as not as cold as last night across northern parts of the uk. the further south you are, some spots will get close to freezing so for tomorrow, high pressure to the west, but this frontal cold system pushing into northern scotland will provide a

renewed surge of cold air. there will be drank and going for the one or two showers breaking out, northern ireland, northern england, the midlands, and then our weather front bringing a band of rain across northern scotland but as cold air texting behind the rain band, we are likely to see some snow developing and not only the highest ground, down to 100 metres above sea level. you could see some snow. those are your temperatures at apm. 5 degrees in aberdeen but 13 in glasgow. set in scotland, england and wales, a predominantly dry day, one or two showers. quite a lot of cloud by the afternoon, and not as windy as today. to evening, the band of cloud, rain and snow will continue southwards. that will push away on wednesday. dry weather on wednesday but a wednesday. dry weather on wednesday butafairamount wednesday. dry weather on wednesday but a fair amount of cloud, may be showery rain in the far north—west of scotland, and the temperature is below par for many. 7 degrees in aberdeen. cardiff and plymouth, 15.

wednesday into thursday, high—pressure which has been sitting to the west starts to build in a little more strongly across the british isles. that should cut off the feed of very cold air from the north. we have a north—west air coming in instead. not a heatwave, not initially anyway, but as we go to the weekend for the temperatures we re to the weekend for the temperatures were left to the low 20s in the south and a lot of dry weather on the way.

hello, this is bbc news. the government has just published a 50 page document laying out plans in detail to ease restrictions in england. it says all workers who cannot work from home should travel to work if their workplace is open but avoid using public transport. the government is now advising that people should aim to wear a face covering enclosed spaces like on public transport or in shops. people can meet one person from outside their own household and drive to outdoor open spaces irrespective of distance. the government says its ambition is for all primary school children to return to school before the summer for a month if
