hello. this is bbc news. we'll be taking a look at tomorrow morning's papers in a moment. martin lipton and the sun penny smith —— from the sun and penny smith —— from the sun and penny smith join smith —— from the sun and penny smithjoin us. first, the headlines. the uk education secretary warns the longer england's schools are closed, the more children miss out — as the government presses forward with plans to re—open them. people heed warnings not to overwhelm beaches, beauty spots and parks on the first

weekend after lockdown rules in england eased. people in italy will be able to travel both internally — and in and out of the country — from the beginning ofjune, as the country's strict lockdown eases more space for pedestrians and cyclists. could social distancing permanently change the way we travel? and football — but not as we know it. germany's bundesliga becomes the first major european league to restart. hello and welcome to our look ahead to what the papers will be bringing us tomorrow. with us is chief sports reporter of the sun, martin lipton.

i wonder if he has been glued to the bundesliga today. and the broadcaster, penny smith. let's start with the front pages. we begin with the sunday telegraph. they are hailing the discovery of what they call a "breakthrough treatment" using blood thinners to prevent deaths from coronavirus. the mirror covers the story of an eight—month—old baby who died of a rare childhood disease related to covid—19. the observer leads with what they say is a revolt over the easing of lockdown measures and a subsequent drop in borisjohnson‘s approval ratings. the mail on sunday accuses doctors of being "at war" with schools as the debate surrounding pupils‘ return to classrooms continues. the independent says that tory mps are calling on the government to scrap new immigration rules — suggesting the nhs and social care is at risk from the crackdown.

and "britain on fast—track to vi rus recovery" is the express‘ headline. so let's begin. there was some debate, martin, as to how you were going to do your normal sort of conveyor belt of papers. i thought a bit of blue tack on the wall behind you would have worked. nice to see you both, at a distance, sadly. let's begin with the observer. the headline, revolt over easing of lockdown spreads as poll slump hits the prime minister. in particular, penny, this is quoting the meier of manchester, andy burnham, who says that he, along with lots of other large towns and cities weren't aware that the stay at home message was going to be abandoned last week. yes, he had no advance notice of the message, he said, at the start of a working week, nobody let us know, there were

going to be more cars on the roads, all sorts of a completely different situation and nobody thought to speak to us and, in fact, he really points the finger, writing in the observer, points to finger at boris johnson's chief advisor dominic cummings. he actually says "far from a planned safety net approach, this looks like another exercise in dominic cummings' chaos theory." i think the main thing that this shows, and there will be many people who will agree with andy burnham's stance, which is that it is very london centric. you know, london, we passed the peak in april to 12th, i say we because i live in london, and obviously we still have still got the virus and it is awful for every single family and every single person who died, but we are in the downslope but it is not the same everywhere else and i do wonder why

they haven't got more representation on some of these meetings that are happening. we also hear something similar from happening. we also hear something similarfrom mark happening. we also hear something similar from mark drakeford, happening. we also hear something similarfrom mark drakeford, the first minister of wales, nicola sturgeon, first minister of scotland, martin, who say that we would much prefer a four nation approach, that we all moving concert and, of course, it is england that has made the greatest number of changes. yes, england have made the changes. yes, england have made the changes and we talked last week about the number of new cases in london being down to a very small number, but there are still huge numbers across the country and i think it has always been the case that the government and society has been seen to be london centric, that the regions get forgotten quite swiftly because everything is focused on the capital and one understands why in terms of the economics of the country but i think it isa economics of the country but i think it is a legitimate critique that could be made of every single

government, notjust could be made of every single government, not just this could be made of every single government, notjust this one, since time immemorial, it has been the case. but i do think there seems to bea case. but i do think there seems to be a view, particularly outwith england, that there hasn't been unity of purpose, there hasn't been sufficient discussion and conversation. i am sure the government will push back firmly at this criticism and the fact here that we have a series of labour mayors criticising the government, led by andy burnham, adds to the politicisation of the issue and that won't be helpful because it has to be questioned but it has to be done without any political affiliation and this starts to look like there may be political concerns underpinning the critique. in the mail on sunday, boris johnson's

quoted as saying "i know that this will not be easy, the first baby steps never are, but i hope that when we look back, the changes we've made this week will be seen as an important moment on the road to our nation's recovery." that is the case, isn't it, penny, with the gift of hindsight, which is 2020, we don't know at the moment. lots of countries are going through this in very different ways and you can't apply, for example, in england, what denmark has done because society is totally different. and, also, we live in different ways. we are a very squashed nation and i think it was always going to be a problem. it is just like parenting, was always going to be a problem. it isjust like parenting, it is extremely easy to say you are not allowed to go in the fridge but if somebody says, what if i want mail? you say only if you have mail. what if they say, it is not cow milk are, oi’ if they say, it is not cow milk are, or cheese comes from cow milk, or it

becomes extraordinarily complicated when she moved from stay home, do not go out, only work if you absolutely have to do, and then you have to start being a bit more nuanced. and i think there are a few people who are saying, you know, common sense, let us exercise a little common sense. if we have been on our own little common sense. if we have been on ourown and little common sense. if we have been on our own and haven't seen anybody for a week, we are probably going to bea for a week, we are probably going to be a bit safer to go out then somebody doing something else, which isn't quite as safe. there is no such thing as 100% safety in anything, even in crossing the road. some people would say we have not had a proper lockdown, unlike countries like spain and italy which we re countries like spain and italy which were much tougher about it. the sunday telegraph, martin, drugs to thin blood can prevent virus deaths. hopes raised of a breakthrough treatment with some anti—clotting medicine. there are so many trials going on on so many different drugs at the moment. yes, there have been lots of them and i think some of the

other front pages talk about vaccines and treatments like that, but this seems potentially a hugely important step. this is a study that has been done at the royal bolton hospital and the professor quoted is a memberof sage hospital and the professor quoted is a member of sage and he says he has seena a member of sage and he says he has seen a really quite an extraordinary story, doing cat scans of lungs, which found the patients who suffered the worst and died, they found clots in their lungs and the potential cure for this will be blood thinning. he said we have not seen this before in any virus and explains the extraordinary clinical picture we have uncovered but he says with those whose blood has become very low on oxygen when they have no obvious breathing problems, suddenly, this could be an absolute game changer, if this is correct and

blood thinning treatments, which are very fairly standard, if they are effective in warding off the worst of the excesses of the virus, it will give a significant number of people are much greater chance of surviving when they might otherwise not have done and, if so, that is a massive step forward. the mail on sunday is where we will go next. now it is doctors at war on schools, a difference of opinion amongst some doctors as to whether children should be sent back to school, primary school children in particular we are talking about, at the beginning of next month. particular we are talking about, at the beginning of next monthlj particular we are talking about, at the beginning of next month. i know, and, of course, it comes down to the way you look at statistics and we we re way you look at statistics and we were always taught, were we not, as journalists, there are lies, damned lies and statistics, you can skew them one way or another and one is accusing another of looking at it through the wrong prism. i think when it comes down to it, the

problem is that we come back to what the education secretary kevin williamson said, he is saying the problem is by not going back to school, you are really hitting the most disadvantaged the hardest —— gavin williamson. they are the ones that often do not have a device or one whole family shares it, maybe they are in a home where they are not safe anyway and you look at the difference between state schools and private schools, already, private schools, a lot of them, they are saying, listen, you are not going back until september, that is it. but the point is, those are people that already are advantage to children and are not going to benefit. now there is a suggestion that maybe there might be special summer camps that maybe there might be special summer camps to help children catch up summer camps to help children catch up andi summer camps to help children catch up and i was thinking, that's a really good idea because, after all, you could say 700,000 state pupils are not being set anywhere... that

means more work for teachers in summer holidays, some schools have never closed, and have remained open for vulnerable children and children of key workers. i want to move on if i may. it is so difficult not having you here and having to yell at you both. the independent next, a wonderful picture of an empty stadium. "it's all gone quiet over there", the bundesliga became the first major european league to get cracking again, did you watch it?|j did watch some of the game. it is foot ball did watch some of the game. it is football not as we know it and i think we will have to get used to it. there was a slightly antiseptic feel about the match that i saw in dortmund, and then the one in frankfurt. they are normally very raucous stadiums, 80,000 in dortmund, 55 also in frankfurt. a really good febrile proper football venues and they were silent, apart from the shouts of the players. if we do have the premier league

returning, the only difference is they will be more swearing that we have to blank off on the microphone spurt, essentially, it will be the same thing and we have to get used toa same thing and we have to get used to a version of the game that isn't what anybody has grown up and taken as the norm. and it is going to take as the norm. and it is going to take a degree of getting used to. but you have to start somewhere. the premier league will be looking at this, i'm sure, they've got a big meeting on monday and saying this was a positive step, that if the germans can get their league season back under way, following all of the safety advice which the premier league has taken its blueprint from, the german blueprint, then why can't we? and it will be moving that way. but, remember, we are not looking to restart until mid june. what of germany have a second wave of covid? lam not germany have a second wave of covid? i am not so sure they will still be playing which will make it much more difficult. let's go back to the

sunday telegraph, penny. alfresco pubs and dining to save the high street. i am quite excited about this. either way, can street. i am quite excited about this. eitherway, can i street. i am quite excited about this. either way, can i add to martin, and i'm sure it has been said before, iam martin, and i'm sure it has been said before, i am loving the fact that they are not allowed to spit in football, it is great. this is talking about sunday trading laws being relaxed to try and help and, also, that if you have a restaurant oi’ also, that if you have a restaurant ora pub oran also, that if you have a restaurant or a pub or an area you can set up outside, that maybe you could have a sort of slightly more continental town centre this summer, with people being outside, so that they can socially distance, which i am so desperate for. i mean, iam socially distance, which i am so desperate for. i mean, i am a great pub goer. i don't have to go and sing loads of points but ijust love the pub. don't shatter that illusion! and i am also very sad for

all of these people who are desperately, desperately trying to make the companies that they have set up, the restaurants in the pubs in the cafes that they have set up and put so much work into, just to make them survive. i'm going to go and help as soon as i can.|j make them survive. i'm going to go and help as soon as i can. i think a lot of people will feel the same, when day, martin, if they have been stuck indoors, stuck at home —— one day, martin. if they can safely go out and support local businesses, even just out and support local businesses, evenjust a out and support local businesses, even just a cup of coffee you haven't had to make yourself as a treat. i think so and it may be that one of the ways to make this more viable is to pedestrianise temporarily at night some town ce ntre temporarily at night some town centre streets, so they can spill into the street without being run down. anything that would help to galvanise or kick—start the economy and, in particular, in the re sta u ra nt and, in particular, in the restaurant entertainment sector has got to be beneficial, because, otherwise, we will go to a point in

the future and these places won't exist any more. i still feel there is going to be a huge number of casualties in the catering, restaurant, pub trade from what's gone on. we have to give people a chance. they are playing the music, they want us to stop. it is like the oscars. just like the oscars. that's it for the papers this hour. martin lipton and penny smith will be back at 11:30 for another look at the papers. goodbye for now. next — it's click. that's it for the papers this hour. hello you, and, hello, lara, how are you doing?

hello. i'm good, thank you, and you seem to have cut your hair. yes, the haircut has finally happened, and i have to say, the relationship survived. there was no blood and to be honest, i think she has done a pretty good job, don't you? it is looking good, but has the colour changed a bit? yes, i am trying a new artificial silver colour, shall we say — don't worry, i will be returning to my natural colour of suspiciously brown as soon as i can get back to a proper hairdresser. you have had a good week, you had a lockdown birthday. that's right, it was very nice but i don't think the years need to count in lockdown. in your house, though, there has been an important birthday. i had the terrifying task of hosting a 10th birthday for my son and seven of his friends on video chat. and it's notjust children who are missing events. we all are. and music has been a real casualty of this — so much has been cancelled, music festivals are off, the venues are closed, and it's hard to imagine when we'd next be going to a concert. true, but musicians are not

giving up so easily. this is not your typical gig venue. but, earlier this month, more than 700,000 people logged in live to watch helsinki's annual may day concert performed in this virtual arena complete with digital fireworks. fans far away as the usa and germany jammed online with finnish rappers jvg. now, virtual gigs aren't new. last year, 10 million people watched dj marshmello headline the first concert held inside the game fortnite. then in stomped rapper travis scott to smash that record in april when 12.3 million players logged in to watch his astronomical event live. now i assumed that despite the huge audience figures, thisjust

wouldn't appeal to the more traditional musicians, who thrive from playing to a live audience. i mean, world—famous jazz genius jamie cullum would think this was an absolute travesty — right? i love this idea. i am a big computer game fan, so, in recent years, as computer games have got more advanced, i am not an online player so much but i love the big open—world games like grand theft auto, the last of us, red dead redemption — they really thought very hard about their soundtracks. i've actually discovered music through the radio stations as you drive around in a stolen car in grand theft auto. i would be first in line if they had opened up a jazz club in grand theft auto and i could play in it — or any type of concert. so all bets are off, it seems, and anything is possible. while i have been at the jazz clubs,

minecraft gamers have taken it upon themselves to create their own massive gigs from their bedroom. open pit started in may 2018 when producer/dj/friend max schramp decided to throw his 21st birthday in minecraft. it went better than anyone expected. since then, hundreds of thousands of fans attended their festivals to see massive music stars like 100 gecs and charli xcx. it's the only game that really allows us to do what we do. we have no affiliation to microsoft or minecraft and we can still run our events completely independently. and musicians have started to build their own arenas too. as a tribute to the cancelled music festival south by southwest, indie band courier club have launched block by blockwest. if you are a small artist in a small musical niche, it's going to be really hard for you to pack a club out

and tour the world, or rather, even tour your nation. but if you can book a show on a virtual platform and bring everyone that is spread out in your community together, you can put on a full show, and you could monetise it and the money can go directly to the artist, rather than kind of circumventing through third parties. the idea is that it breaks down financial barriers, it breaks down geographical barriers and it kind of disrupts the whole festival circuit. and for artists like pussy riot, breaking down political barriers is just as important as breaking financial ones. to me it opens up the possibility to play for a russian audience, like i really wish i could play physically, but even when it was not coronavirus, pussy riot are still enemies of the state so sometimes when we just leave the house, cops are arresting us forjust bleep leaving the house. i'm originally from a small

provincial town, and western musicians never come to these cities, it doesn't matter if it is coronavirus or not coronavirus time. so it doesn't matter where you are, you can have access to this concert, that's awesome. so i think that is the future, to just cut all the people in the middle who take the money, basically, while producing nothing. and so to the question of money. in these extraordinary times, many artists are giving their performances away for free, or, like during twitch streamaid, to encourage donations for health workers. but if artists are already making less money from their music sales, can they really afford to give away their live performances for nothing? you have got what erykah badu is doing, who is charging for hers and making it like a full production. and her argument is even though i'm not about to go bankrupt, i have a big crew of people

and by bringing them together and making some money out of this we can keep things going. she has done some incredibly experimental stuff. of course, there is no substitute for a real gig, but i think it is wonderful for artists to stay connected to the people who love their music. and just as physical venues split concerts fees with the artist, virtual venues are exploring the same idea. over the course of the last few years, we have seen a quadrupling in the amount of non—gaming content on twitch. i do think that one of our sustainable strengths over time which ensures that musicians have a high likelihood of broadcasting on twitch after social distancing ends is that they will see this as an entirely new revenue stream. even if artists can make money from online performances, you have to admit the atmosphere of an actual live performance is pretty unique. i asked chart topping artist andrewjohn hozier—byrne,

better known as hozier, about gigging online. it is just that hard feeling of knowing that there could be hundreds of thousands of people looking at you at the moment and you are in stark silence. that is very odd. once the messages start coming in there is a sense of ok, there is a community there, and that is a very, very good feeling. i am reading your messages, guys, thank you so much. i was quite surprised i have to say how fulfilling that was, having interacted in real time with people — which, to be fair, is not something you can do in a gig. # take me to church # i'll worship like a dog # at the shrine of your light... audio glitching one of the biggest culprits of bad quality video on a conference call is poor wi—fi signal. maybe you are sitting too far

away from the router with solid walls between you and it, or perhaps other people in your household are hammering the wi—fi network with streaming videos and games. we also host diplomats and other foreign leaders when they visit. or it could be that the channel your wi—fi is being carried on by your router is just too crowded with other routers. this wifi analyzer app for android will reveal what is going on around you. there are a range of channels available and most routers default to the same few. that is why you see everybody crowded around down here. but see this? that's me out on my own, a bandwidth hog of the ninth order. so how did i get that vip channel just for me? well, it's not that hard. but don't tell everyone, ok? you need to open your router's admin tools,

which can be accessed by entering the default gateway ip in the address bar of any browser on a device connected to the router. your ip address may well be the same as mine, so give that a try. if not, open your network and internet settings, then view your network properties to find the default address. you will need the admin password, which if you have never accessed this part of your router before, should be in the paperwork that came with it. in the wireless settings, if five gigahertz is available make sure that it enabled, to change your wi—fi channel you might need to take it off auto settings, then just use a different channel and see if it improves the signal. one final quality tip to get you going — set your camera at eye level and make sure the strongest light source is in front of and not behind you. now we have been looking at some of the entertainment that has had

to be cancelled and this weekend. i have been looking looking forward to the eurovision song contest, but what has happened is the ai eurovision song contest that we talked about a few weeks ago. and something ifound rather amusing was that britain's entry was called rentree. would you believe, i picked the winner? my favourite was australia's uncanny valley and it was the favourite with the public too. i think it was the totally bonkers lyrics that won it. maybe and, wow, clearly you are very talented at predicting the desirability of poppy, ai—generated, cheesy pop. the desirability of partly ai—generated, cheesy pop. well done. yes, it's my main superpower. listen, that's it for this week. please check out the full version on bbc iplayer. and you can find us on social media, facebook, instagram

and twitter. thanks for watching. good evening. temperatures are set to climb over the next few days, a lot of dry weather as well, but there is a chance of rain the further north and west you are across the uk, and actually we will see some rain across parts of scotland and northern ireland through tonight, some rain across the far north, and also these outbreaks of rain pushing in from the west. i think as cloud amounts increase, parts of northern england, north wales, north midlands could just see the odd spot of drizzle. further south and east, some clear breaks, one or two places in south—east england could to 3—4 degrees. for the vast majority, it is frost free into tomorrow morning. and then for tomorrow, the further south you are, a lot of dry weather, some hazy sunshine, outbreaks of patchy rain across the northern half of the uk,

will tend to ease for a time, but then wet weather likely return to northern ireland and western scotland later on. temperatures here around 15 degrees, but further south and east, warmer than today, highs of 20, temperatures climbing in the south as we head towards the middle of the coming week, but there will be some rain at times across the north of the uk.

this is bbc news with the latest headlines for viewers in the uk and around the world. the uk education secretary warns the longer england's schools are closed, the more children miss out — as the government presses forward with plans to re—open them. the best way of protecting children, the best way of giving them the best opportunities in life is actually to have them coming back into school. out of 28 children in my class, we've had ten responses saying they will send their children but even a lot of those parents still have reservations about that and queries they would like answered before they do make that choice. people heed warnings not to overwhelm beaches, beauty spots and parks on the first weekend after lockdown rules in england eased. people in italy will be able to travel both internally — and in and out of the country — from the beginning ofjune —
