good morning. welcome to breakfast with charlie stayt and mega munchetty. our headlines today: # amazing grace... an emotional memorial service is held for george floyd — the black man killed while being detained by police officers in minneapolis. everybody wants justice, we want justice for george. he is going to get it. he's going to get it. face coverings are to be made compulsory on public transport in england from june 15th, but there are concerns about how it will be enforced.

good morning. is retail ready for it reopening? with just over a week to go, i'm at a shopping centre in watford to find out what it will look like when it reopens. for the first time in over 20 years, test cricket will be back on the bbc this summer. there'll be highlights of every england match, starting with three tests against the west indies next month. good morning. we have the cooler, u nsettles good morning. we have the cooler, unsettles battle of whether set to continue with strong winds to contend with today and tomorrow —— u nsettled contend with today and tomorrow —— unsettled spell of weather to contend with today and tomorrow. i'll have the full details later. it's friday, june 5. our top story. there've been emotional scenes at a memorial service in minneapolis to george floyd, the 46—year—old black man whose death at the hands of four white police officers has sparked protests across the united states. a lawyer for the family told mourners that a "pandemic of racism" led to his death. thousands of people have

demonstrated in american cities for a tenth consecutive day, the marches have been largely peaceful. jane o'brien has more. # amazing grace...# a moving farewell to george floyd from minneapolis, the city where he met his death. family members described him as a loving father, son, and brother. george was somebody who made everybody feel welcome, like they we re everybody feel welcome, like they were special. everybody wants justice for george, he's going to get it. he's going to get it. the reverend al sharpton, a black activist, spoke the eulogy, but also urged protesters to seize the moment while the eyes of the world were watching to demand lasting police reform and confront racial injustice.

what happened to floyd happens every day in this country in education, in health services, and in every area of american life! it's time for us to stand up in george's name and say "get your knee off our necks!" because of the coronavirus pandemic, the service was closed, but hundreds of people gathered at this makeshift memorial of flowers placed around the block where mr floyd died when a police officer knelt on his neck. it's still a crime scene, but it's also become a place for people to reflect and respond to the tragedy. this is supposed to be the land of opportunity and grace. look at this. i think this is so important, especially since i'm from the suburbs. this has raised a whole new movement talking about black lives matter and how we really need to come together and address this issue. the service ended with eight minutes and 46 seconds of silence

to represent the amount of time mr floyd was pinned to the ground and eventually stopped breathing. chanting: george floyd! what do we want? justice! his body will be taken to north carolina for a public viewing and then to houston, texas for burial. jane o'brien, bbc news, minneapolis. let's get the latest from our los angeles correspondent, david willis. this was an emotionally charged memorial service. just tell us a bit more about how important that occasion wasn't how it was received in the us? well, charlie, very moving indeed. and at that ceremony the reverend, al sharpton, a leading civil rights activist here said it doesn't matter if you wear blue jeans or a blue uniform, you must pay for the crime you commit. now, we had further protests in many cities overnight here, but so far no

reports of violence. indeed, the reverend, al sharpton, said he expected protest to continue in this country through until the summer. we are expecting a memorial service for george floyd in about three different states over the next six days, prior to his funeral in texas next tuesday. and reverend al sharpton said he plans a mass demonstration in august in the nation's capital, washington, dc to mark the famous martin luther king march on, where of course outside the lincoln memorial doctor martin luther king delivered that famous i have a dream speech —— that famous march on. and what about politicians? what reaction have you heard from them over the past 2a hours or so? i have to say president

trump has come under some criticism for his robust, some would say rather bellicose response to the protests that have sprouted up around the country. he has urged state governors to exercise a no—nonsense type approach, bringing the national guard where necessary, and so on. that is in stark contrast to his presumptive democratic presidential rival, joe biden, who has been urging people to come together, a much more unity and talking to each other, rather than confronting each other. so it is a starkly different tone set by these two men, just 22 weeks to go before the presidential elections here. david, thank you very much. shortly, we'll be speaking to a friend of george floyd's. there've been a series of demonstrations here in the uk — the latest in birmingham.

the organisers said britain had a duty to stand in solidarity with the us and said they wanted to expose racism and police brutality in the uk. west midlands police said an estimated 4,000 people took part. face coverings will be made compulsory for anyone using public transport from june 15, in england, to help stop the spread of coronavirus. failure to comply with the new measures could lead to a fine. it comes as the number of people that have died from the virus in the uk reaches almost 40,000, as keith doyle reports. it does not seem that long ago that people wearing face coverings out and about were an oddity. now it seems perfectly normal. and from june 15 in england it will be obligatory on buses, trains, trams, ferries, and planes. loudspeaker: use a face covering while travelling... there will be some exceptions for children and disabled people, but the transport secretary said that wearing a face covering will be a condition of travel. you cannot travel unless you're wearing the face covering

and we'll have people there to remind you, there will be posters that remind you, it will be quite a visual thing that peter is working on. there will also other powers, so ultimately it could lead to fines. i very much hope we won't be in that situation. in scotland, where face coverings are recommended on public transport, the government will consider making them compulsory. in northern ireland, they are recommended where social distancing isn't impossible. and wales has not yet made any recommendations on face coverings. transport unions have welcomed the move, which they said is overdue, and the doctors' union, the bma, has asked why the requirement is being brought in right away and that it should be widened to other areas where social distancing isn't always possible. voiceover: nhs test and trace will contact you to trace people you might have infected. the nhs test and trace scheme in england is key to controlling the spread of the virus. it's up and running with thousands of people in place to contact those who'ave come in contact with the virus. voiceover: the nhs covid-19 app...

part of this is a smart phone app which has been trialled in the isle of wight. the government says this should be up and running by the end of the month. the app will be up and running this month? it was running in the isle of wight and we will make sure it will be running as soon as we make — as soon as we think it is robust. 0k, ijust want to check, you said it'll be in place this month. it will be rolled out across the uk this month? i would like to think we would be able to manage it by this month, yes. the 14—day quarantine for most arrivals into the uk, which starts on monday, has caused a rift between the government and the airline industry. british airways did not take part in a meeting with the home secretary, priti patel, yesterday. it's thought agreement on air bridges, which would help the tourism industry, is still way off. keith doyle, bbc news. let's get more on this, our political correspondent iain watsonjoins us now from westminster. iain, good morning to you. this is quite a move moving towards

compulsory face coverings, it isn't coming in untiljune is? compulsory face coverings, it isn't coming in untiljune 15? that's coming in untiljune15? that's right. june 15 could be quite significant, that is when non—essential retailers, department stores, all the rest of it will be allowed to reopen in england. more people will be going to work, more people will be going to work, more people going out shopping. so i think the government making this compulsory rather than something simply recommended, recognising it will be impossible to maintain social distancing on some forms of public transport and in some cities, therefore, face coverings may well help people who are asymptomatic from passing on the disease. but it is quite a turnaround from the government because previously the transport secretary grant shapps, said as masks orface transport secretary grant shapps, said as masks or face coverings give people a false sense of security. he says they will offer some limited protection. that is because the government is quite keen to see if they can get the economy moving again. i think this is as much a political and economic decision as much as a medical decision. and this

includes what the prime minister himself was saying at the end of april, face coverings may well give people the confidence to go back to work. certainly the mayor of london, city can't, things this is long overdue. he was recommending this for some time. —— sadiq khan, overdue. he was recommending this forsome time. —— sadiq khan, but the government thinks people will co—operate, it could become less popular if people end up being fine. indeed. 0k, iain, thank you very much indeed. iain watson there. we'll be speaking to the transport secretary grant shapps at 7:30am. patients are being warned not to expect business as usual when dentists are allowed to reopen in england on monday, due to a shortage of protective equipment. nhs england insists it's continuing to work with dentists, but the british dental association says a survey of 2,000 practices suggests only a third are ready to carry out routine appointments. we are in a situation where many of my colleagues are really quite stressed with the timelines they have been given to actually deliver

face—to—face services for patients. we are delighted we have been given the opportunity, we haven't really had the support we need, i don't think. many of my colleagues are reporting that monday is a deadline to reopen is not really something that they will be able to hit. the luxury car maker bentley is to cut 1,000 jobs in the uk, about a quarter of its workforce. the firm's manufacturing site at crewe is working at half its normal capacity because of a downturn in sales. bentley, which is owned by volkswagen, is expected to give more details later today. those are the main stories. it is 6:12am. take a look at these pictures from norway. it's the moment a powerful landslide caused a house to topple over and others to be swept into the sea in the town of alta. it happened after hours of heavy rain. nobody is reported to have been hurt, but a dog had to be rescued

by helicopter. can see the rescue under way there, well despite a bit of trauma. clearly the dog being airlifted away from some of the damage there. amazing image. the dog is ok, no—one injured. it could have been such a different story. it's certainly good. . it is 6:13am. the harrowing footage of the last moments of george floyd's life as he died under the knee of a police officer has sparked the worst civil unrest in the united states for decades. it's not the first time americans have believed they had evidence that would result in justice. 30 years ago, a video emerged of black motorist rodney king being beaten by four white policemen. when the officers were acquitted, los angeles erupted into violence. 0ur los angeles correspondent sophie long has been talking to people who remember those events, and asking if they believe the protests over george floyd's

death will finally bring change. you may find some of the images contained in this report upsetting. i immediately knew what i was seeing. there was an unconstitutional, savage, brutal beating. and i said, we have a videotape this time. those of us that had spent years and years fighting against police abuse almost cheered, because we said finally, it can't be denied now. it was denied. when the acquittals came down, not guilty, not guilty, i called the fourth, i colonised up. i said get your children, go home, the city is going to blow. we are getting word this evening of rockthrowing values in south—central los angeles. this evening of rockthrowing values in south-central los angeles. an already simmering fire exploded. sto ked already simmering fire exploded. stoked by racial and economic inequality, just as it has now. many thought the unrest would mark a turning point, just as they do now.

nojustice, no peace! we were hopeful the uprising would free us from the foot of policing on our necks, but it didn't. most recognise there have been steps in the right direction, but they say the mission of the lapd needs to change. until it does, this uniform will remain a symbol of persecution, not protection in most poor, black communities. until you go to guardian policing and provide safety for poor people, as opposed to persecution and mass incarceration, you are going to see riots every generation. nearly 30 years ago, the focal point of much of the rioting was here. not this time. now they are intensively protesting in affluent areas of los angeles, is even the people of beverly hills and bel—air, don't feel their pain, they will here. while the location has changed, the faces and chance a new generation, the messages the same.

we have a right to our rage. this time, we have black lives matter, we have a movement for black lives. we have a movement for black lives. we have brilliant organisers who are saying, you know what? let's make sure we move the work into spaces of white affluence, let's disrupt their spaces, let's notjust keep the pain and angerand rage spaces, let's notjust keep the pain and anger and rage in black communities, let's spread it out. then a young college student who became an icon, mark reddie, says 2020 will be another important milestone. they made the most powerful man in the world go inside of his bunker. that is symbolic. when the history books are written, that is what is going to be remembered. the protists isa going to be remembered. the protists is a rainbow protists. i see who is protesting and it is a whole new

generation and, considering that i have been fighting the abuse of police on african americans literally for 47 years, i am inspired that there is a new generation ready to take up the fight. that was sophie long reporting. let's speak now to one of george floyd's friends, pastor patrick ngwolo. thank you for talking to us on brea kfast thank you for talking to us on breakfast this morning. may i pass on maicon ——my condolences, you have lost a friend. i met george floyd 2010 - 2011. i was lost a friend. i met george floyd 2010 — 2011. i was a student pastor in eastern texas and we were trying to reach the neighbourhood and, in trying to reach the neighbourhood, we threw a hip—hop concert, passed

out flyers in the neighbourhood and hoped that people from the neighbourhood, even though they did not know was, would come. 0n the night of the concert, we looked, we saw people from everywhere but we did not see people from the neighbourhood and out in the distance we saw one of our friends at the time and george floyd. we ran to him, he was the tallest person in the building at the time and so that was the first time we met him. fast forward two years later, at resurrection euston, a church, we we re resurrection euston, a church, we were trying to reach the neighbourhood and what the bible calls people like george floyd are persons of peace, or calls people like george floyd are persons of peace, 01’ sons calls people like george floyd are persons of peace, or sons of peace. they are essentially people who opened the village to outsiders and

we we re opened the village to outsiders and we were an outsider and we were trying to break in and do ministry and he was hospitable and he opened up and he was hospitable and he opened up the neighbourhood so that people would not be suspicious of us and we could do the work we believe god called us to do. we have seen the pictures of the memorial service yesterday, marking, celebrating george floyd's life. what do you think george floyd's death has now done to how people feel in america about race relations and how this has been dealt with?” about race relations and how this has been dealt with? i think george floyd's death is an inflection point in our country and it looks like the world and what i mean by that is either we're to master the scriptures as they say, the original sin of racism or the original sin of

racism will master us. i think we are at that virgins. it is a call for first limitation to grieve the life of someone who was special. ——we are at that edge. from lamentations we moved to national repent and in these are yet to be united states in the original sin of racism and it is a call for national and local and state leaders to come to the table and have real conversations to allow those of us who have been in the struggle to sit and have those conversations and to begin to enact policy that actually inaudible and hopefully here and enter world. we want to take the neighbourhood of america and turn it

into a brotherhood. does it encourage you that now conversations are happening amongst everyday people who were trying to understand each other better? i think the conversations encourage me but i also think there is an undercurrent anything communities i am from, i think people are fatigued, tired of the hashtags, one after the other and it seems like every time we have and it seems like every time we have a conversation there is nothing that moves and so i think the caution will be, we have to have meaningful conversations but, more than that, these conversations need to lead to some type of action. i began this conversation with you talking about the memorial service in minneapolis and of course there is one happening in houston on monday. what is the plan? i believe that it will be a

celebration of his life, similar to the one in minnesota. he is a houston son and so we have a particular way of sending out folk off. it will be a part of morning and grieving but one part of celebrating someone whose life touched so many people and whose death seems to have sparked a movement all over the world. i was just looking the other day at a mural in the middle of war—torn northern syria, a mural of george floyd, and just the impact that he has had in his death, we are thankful if this means it is going to move the conversation. it appears that, as the scriptures would say, god has heard the blood of george floyd and is answering the call.

pastor patrick ngwolo, i wish you well and thank you very much for talking to us this morning. thank you for having me, take care. the royal hospital in chelsea — home of the chelsea pensioners — has been hosting its annualfounders day parade this week. but it's been a more sombre and scaled back event than normal because of the coronavirus pandemic. like many care homes it's been particularly hit hard, with ten of the army veterans dying from the virus, and dozens more infected. 0ur defence correspondent jonathan beale has been to see how they've been coping. earth to earth, ashes to ashes, dust to dust... with an average age of 82, death is part of life for the chelsea pensioners but, with the coronavirus, it has hit this community of army veterans especially hard. he was one of lives gentleman... lockton has prevented

attending friends funerals they still remember life lost with a simple service in the grounds. the chaplain, it has been particularly busy. my normaljob is to take funerals but we have had 18 in ten weeks, ten through covid—19, eight through other causes. we have been unable to hold funerals in the chapel. people have told me this is much worse than anything they have ever encountered during many of service. the royal hospital went into lockdown will be for the rest of the country and the 300 pensioners who live here, they took careful precaution including military discipline social distancing but that did not stop covid—19 from breaching the defences. monica parrott is one of the 74 pensioners who contracted the virus and recovered. she says she feels blessed. it was awful but what

was horrible as well is, you are a bit scared, you do start to think negatively about what is going to be happening to you and you feel a bit sorry for yourself and have a little cry now and again, a big cry now and again. in this crisis, they soldiered on. this is normally the grandest of occasions, with most of the pensioners on parade with family and hundreds of guests. this year it has had to be scaled back with most pensioners watching from windows. royal hospital is better resourced than most homes with dedicated staff and even their own hospital on side but that has not kept them immune from the virus. somehow, despite all our drills, it got in here and that is an illustration ofjust how difficult this disease is to deal with and hospital care all around the country have found that, despite their best efforts, it gets past the

defences and so the key is to have the procedures inside the place but contain it. that is what we have in place now. # we will meet again, don't know where, don't know when... # singing song along with dark humour have kept their spirits up. they have even turned the lawn into an aptly named outdoor pub. with the lockdown easing, they will still be confined to base but they are looking forward to better times ahead. i have been in trenches and up ahead. i have been in trenches and up in the hills of saudi arabia, at least here i get three meals a day and go to my bed and at best of all, nobody is shooting at me. have no fear, don't worry about it, we will

meet. # i know we will meet again some sunny day... #. you cannot really argue with a pensioner who basically says, there is no—one shooting at me, i am fine. lovely scenes because, in and amongst them is beautiful sunshine. maybe we will not see that for a little while? good morning, they might be some glimpses of sunshine over the next few days but it is in fairly short supply because we have a low pressure in charge. the dry warm weather we started the week with is now leaving us. it will be turning windy through today and especially into tomorrow as well. it is down to the fact of this

developing area sitting out towards the north—east at the moment. this morning showers from the word go. more persistent rain clearing the south—eastern for much of the uk it will be a day of sunny spells but also heavy, blustery showers and thunderstorms stop fewer wish i was down across southern parts of england for the middle of the afternoon but as we had north, plenty of showers across wales. thunderstorms in the north—east of england. 40 miles per hour winds for most of us. chris got lead and the irish sea possibly 60 miles per hour gusts. —— scotland. temperatures around 9— 17 degrees, feeling colder when you add on the strength of the winds and that they could cause some disruption. rain pushing south into northern ireland, northern england. quite a chilly night where you keep

the clear skies. tomorrow, low pressure still very much in charge. a real squeeze into the isobars as well. a particularly windy day with further outbreaks of showery rain. bearin further outbreaks of showery rain. bear in mind that if you are travelling. particularly across the northern half of the uk with 60 miles per hour winds causing perhaps some travel disruption. the showery rain moving south. the heaviest of the showers with hail and thunder across eastern parts of england. more rain across scotland and northern ireland in the afternoon. quite a chilly day for many of us. working through into the second half of the weekend into sunday and this frontal system moving across eastern parts bringing rain, particularly for eastern england. further west, drier and less windy but still rather chilly, particularly around the eastern areas of england. a

little bit of sunshine down towards the south and south—west. as we head through the weekend, this is a look at the rainfall total. many areas up to 30 millimetres. the wettest area across parts of scotland and northern england but for many of us, more rain on the clouds than we thought through the whole of may. a very unsettled picture. things turning drier and warmer as we had on into the next week. it's 6:30am. hello this is breakfast with charlie stayt and naga munchetty. we'll bring you all the latest news and sport in a moment, but also on breakfast this morning — from online dating to making sure we never had an excuse to miss a work meeting — we're looking at how zoom revolutionised our lockdown lives. social media megastar and rapper ksi will be joining us to talk

about his stint on the new series of celebrity gogglebox. and we'll be hearing from rebecca front and holly walsh about their hilarious new bbc comedy, the other one. good morning. here's a summary of today's main stories from bbc news. an emotional memorial service has been held for george floyd — the black man killed while being detained by police officers in minneapolis. his death sparked protests across america and around the world. members of mr floyd's family and the reverend jesse jackson were among several hundred people at the service at north central university in downtown minneapolis. all these people came to see my brother and that is amazing to me, that he touched so many people's hearts, people are crying now, that's how much they loved him. you know, i'm just staying as strong as

they came because i need to get it out. —— as strong as i can. there've been a series of demonstrations here in the uk — the latest in birmingham. the organisers said britain had a duty to stand in solidarity with the us and said they wanted to expose racism and police brutality in the uk. west midlands police said an estimated 4,000 people took part. from june the 15th, almost everyone travelling on public transport in england will have to wear a face covering. the new government guidelines come into force as more people are expected to return to work and school. anyone who doesn't comply with the measures will not be able to travel and could face a fine. young children and people with disabilities would be exempt. the luxury carmaker bentley is to cut 1,000 jobs in the uk, about a quarter of its workforce. the firm's manufacturing site in crewe is working at half its normal capacity because of a downturn in sales. bentley, which is owned by volkswagen, is expected to give

more details later today. those of the main stories right now. it's 6:32am. it's time now to check in with a gp. joining us from bristol is dr alison bolam. very good morning to you. however you? good morning, charlie. i'm very well, thank you. how are you? good. and tell us about your practice and how things are. many gps we have spoken to recently seeing the good news is you are seeing more people, some literally are seeing, but more people are coming forward, which is a good thing. absolutely. that's correct. yes, i work in bristol, as you say, at warfield health and in bristol in the north, a large health practice. and over the last couple of months we have been seeing most of months we have been seeing most of our patients or dealing with them over the telephone or sometimes a video consultation. and that is still the case but the number of people seeing us has now steadily started increasing. and that is good. absolutely. a couple of things i would like to go through with you.

you may be well aware whatever means there is today is about in england face coverings will become compulsory on public transport. and ijust wonder, how many people over the past weeks and months in other circumstances as well have been asking you those questions about what constitutes a face covering, the phrase being used, and also those people for whom it might be a problem? yes. good point. of course, as you say yesterday the government announced from june 15 it will become compulsory to wear a face covering on public transport. and by that, i understand that they mean it can bea that, i understand that they mean it can be a cloth mask, and it can also bea can be a cloth mask, and it can also be a scarf, or it can be a bandanna type thing that you tie around your face. and the government guidance on the website gives you advice on how to make one at home, which seems quite simple. i think the key m essa g es quite simple. i think the key messages it is not to be a surgical,

nhs type mast, because were to keep those people working in the health and care system, so yes, it can be anything will cover your face. and then people who don't have to wear it, so, young children, people with breathing problems, and people with disabilities who wouldn't be able to manage themselves would be exempt from that. when you say as a doctor, people with breathing problems, you understand you will need some kind of official documentation, because in theory it is a condition of travel, that is what they are saying, isn't it? you aren't allowed on unless you are wearing a mask. it is your understanding may be without a letter from someone like yourself proving it is a medical issue which gives you an exemption?” proving it is a medical issue which gives you an exemption? i haven't seen any information about that yet. i think that it might be quite, so we're talking about people with

perhaps a condition called copd, which we might call chronic bronchitis. those of the sort of people who should still be trying to maintain very good social distancing, and perhaps shouldn't be on public transport. so this may not bea on public transport. so this may not be a very common situation. i'm hoping they won't need a letter from theirgp, hoping they won't need a letter from their gp, because gps have a lot of work to do and we hopefully won't have to do those kind of letters. i am hoping the transport police or whoever it is checking this will allow people to explain that they have this condition. we are speaking to grant shapps a little later on this morning, we will maybe put some of those thoughts to him. all of these things matter, and how it works in practice most of all. more generally, there are concerns at this stage of what everyone says is a fragile time in the damage about a

second wave. that is a real concern, isn't it, to people in your profession? absolutely. we need to avoid that second wave. and i do think, i have been having a little look at the evidence around face coverings and, look, there has been some research done about this. and it seems the point of wearing a face covering in a crowded space, where it is more difficult to maintain that crucial to me to separation —— that crucial to me to separation —— that 2m separation is that it protects people around you, not necessarily you. so if i'm carrying the virus, i don't know it, otherwise i definitely wouldn't be on public transport, but if i am carry “— on public transport, but if i am carry —— carrying it and i cough or sneeze next year, and i'm wearing a face covering, about 95% of the virus particles from you will to you. we are trying to keep that all—important r number below one. it

is below one, the virus will go away from our society. and what we to do. this is one way of helping that. i think, from the evidence. doctor bolam, thank you very much. what time does surgery open? it opens at eighta.m.. i time does surgery open? it opens at eight a.m.. i will be in early, i think. just in time for a cup of tea. thank you very much. my pleasure. thank you very much for having me. it is 6:40am. we are going to speak to mike. mike, you must be bouncing in your seat at the thought of live cricket coming back on the telly? it is grams of comfort for people who cannot watch sport themselves in the flash. at least second best on tv. and this is the first time in history over 20 years that test cricket will be back on the bbc, with highlights of every test and one—day international this summer. it starts with three tests against the west indies, with the rest of the summer's

fixtures, still to be decided. moments like shane warne's ‘ball of the century‘ because of the way it spins, 27 years ago at old trafford, used to be regular fixtures on the bbc, and they'll be back once again next month. it's worth looking at this again! i don't know how he does it. the science there, defied. there will be highlights from every match on bbc 2 — starting with the first day of the first test at the ageas bowl in southampton on the eighth ofjuly. former england captain sir alastair cook will be part of the presentation team and to get you in the mood for things. there will be highlights from classic games every weekend in june. now, a number of american football players have called on their sports governing body, the nfl, to speak out against racism. in a video posted on social media, the players say the organisation has failed to speak out since the death of george floyd. this is what we, the players, would like to hear. we, the national

football league condemn racism in the systematic oppression of black people. we, the national football league, admit we were wrong in silencing our placement peacefully protesting was that we, the national football league believe black lives matter. black lives matter. black lives matter. well, the nfl have responded, pointing to the millions of dollars they donate to help address systemic racism. michaeljohnson says no—one should stay silent in the fight against racism. the four—time olympic champion believes the movement has more momentum than he's seen before. this is not only black people, who are sounding this alarm. this is eve ryo ne are sounding this alarm. this is everyone who understands and appreciates furnace. and, you know, are fed up and they are demanding change. and so i'm hopeful that a

year from now we are not looking back at this time and nothing has happened. now, when the premier league resumes in less than two weeks' time, there will be some rule changes. for example, teams will be allowed to make up to five substitutions in a game, rather than the traditional three. and each team will also be allowed to have nine players on their bench, instead of the usual seven. it's all to do with player welfare, with shorter recovery times between matches coming thick and fast and the risk of more injuries. matches start up again on the 17th ofjune and burnley goalkeeper, nick pope, says watching the bundesliga has given the players hope that football can work behind closed doors. a lot of people watched the bundesliga, and it's by no means 100% of what the bundesliga is, but it's great to have the sport on the telly and to see them still playing again. so it gives us hope moving forward. hopefully, not fortoo again. so it gives us hope moving forward. hopefully, not for too long because everybody wants to play in football stadiums, that's part of

what is great about being a player and what is great about premier league. the rest of the nba basketball season looks like it will be finished at disney world in florida. players, coaches and staff from 22 teams will all stay at the resort for the duration of the season to isolate themselves while the remaining eight games are played from the end of the july. disney world has been closed to the public since march. frankie dettori set a new course record on the first day of one of flat racing's main meetings of the year at newmarket. it had been seven months since the course hosted any racing but seven weeks late the guineas festival is under way. coronavirus restrictions though, meant there was no crowd, and very few people at all, to see dettori ride to victory in the second race of the day. it was quite weird to go racing at newmarket with no spectators and it was dead quiet. i mean, once the stalls open, its business as usual, but it's quite weird as we passed

the furlough point approaching the line, there is no roar. and finally going forward, we are looking for new ways of doing things with social distancing in mind. in germany, a couple of amateur football teams, took a more physical approach to enforcing the two—metre rule. determined to play at matches again, they did so using shopping trolleys to make sure each player had their own space. no shopping lists to slow the game down, still some sweeping moves there and goals — but don't try this here, as it will still breach the guidelines. and anyway, you'd never get a trolley into your kit bag. looks like chaos, and potentially very painful. i always bang my shins a nyway very painful. i always bang my shins anyway doing shopping at the supermarket, let alone playing football. you ever do that scream when you stub your toe? yes! because you have hit your shin and they don't have shin pads at the supermarket. i'm glad we are in the

same boat. you know you aren't supposed to take the trolleys away from the supermarket?” supposed to take the trolleys away from the supermarket? i know, and that's why it's silly. yes, there is silly. i think that will be on one of the lists of sports to try. what, no. you have to draw a line? i didn't know there was a line. now you know. on monday we were at an outdoor market in barnsley as it reopened, now attention is turning to other shops in england which will be able to open up again injust over a week. ben is at a centre in watford. good morning. we are looking at what could look and feel very different when shops in england start to open from next week. for a start you will have to queuejust to get week. for a start you will have to queue just to get in and once you are inside all the usual things getting increasingly used to,

suggestions of wearing a face mask, keeping a distance and hand sanitising. vicki is one of the people responsible for this. the first thing i am noticing, loss of arrows on the floor. these are to ensure we maintain social distancing as much as possible in what is normally a crowded place and it would be a different experience. keep to the left, follow the route and keep social distancing. there is and keep social distancing. there is a one—way system and these grey arrows outside shops? the stores are working hard themselves to be ready but we appreciate they may not have room inside too cute so we are helping them outside of it. you are responsible for these public space whereas on a high street, it is hard to know who will keep a check on

those cues. how do you manage that? we will be controlling numbers carefully coming into the centre and carefully coming into the centre and car park. working in watford and i do know the local authorities are doing what they can working with local businesses as well. trying to keep a check on who is queueing and where. they may choose to walk away and come back when you think you is and come back when you think you is a bit shorter. some shops will be open some not. it will be really different to the experience. people are really keen to get back out into the shops again but naturally feeling anxious so safety is our numberone feeling anxious so safety is our number one priority, as it always is but ina number one priority, as it always is but in a different way now. we also know visitors will be functional in their shopping and they know what they want and it may not be the same

way before you would come in and get something to eat and dwell. as a shopping centre firm, traditionally you would want people to stick around, have a coffee, have a meal. your food court is a close, around, have a coffee, have a meal. yourfood court is a close, and not opening the cinema. it will be a different experience. it is and we look forward to the time we can have the leisure element coming back, later in the year hopefully. but we are excited to open shops again. we have some fantastic retailers. we are all keen to get our plans in place and welcome people back but we wa nt place and welcome people back but we want people to feel safe. you have about a week to get a lot of work done. a lot of retailers have their mother's day stuff install, all the march stock. a lot of logistics going on behind the scene. retailers

are coming back to set up behind the scenes. some have been here previously, some are still to do it. if you want to know which stores are open, go to our website because we will keep that up—to—date. open, go to our website because we will keep that up-to-date. good luck. a lot of work still to do. i know you have done a lot already. that is the current state of play in places like that. they have about a week to make sure all of those places are ready. but the experience of coming somewhere like this is going to look and feel very different from now. but it is important to get these non—essential retailers back up and going. it'll be so different. it is different to how shopping malls are trying to make it work. dentists across england will be allowed to start seeing patients again from monday, but the british dental association

says that shortage of protective equipment means many of them will be remain closed. nhs england insists its continuing to work with dentists on safety. the surgery is now closed... empty surgery and patient left in place. the surgery will not be resuming at this time. dentistry felt the lockdown more than most. and now, there is a real struggle to reopen on monday. unfortunately they were not many patients here that we are hoping ina not many patients here that we are hoping in a week's time we might be able to start seeing our own emergencies and doing some basic treatment. normal dental treatment is not going to be happening for a long time. this waiting room is going to be empty for months. ensuring the virus does not spread

will have a huge impact.|j ensuring the virus does not spread will have a huge impact. i would normally see 50—60 patients on an average day. now, when we start treating people and doing proper treatment with the drill, i think the most i will be able to see is five. 0nly the most i will be able to see is five. only one patient would be in the surgery at a time and equipment will be repeatedly changed and much more cleaning. i reckon we're looking at 1.5 hours between each patient. we have been given a guidance with less than one working day in place. we have had no help, no guidance. we're not expecting to see routine care patients for three months. it will be open on monday but only for urgent cases. across england so many dentists say they just are not ready. childcare is a massive problem. the biggest challenge has been sourcing ppe.

patient will not be able to get through on the telephone. please be patient. it is not a case of getting a mask or opening the doors. we have to get policies in place. patients are bringing us up, they want to come in, we want to see our patients. they have been left to treat themselves with only limited emergency care available. this was linda's attempt to do her own feeling. so much need, so little capacity. we are going to come back toa capacity. we are going to come back to a very big mess. it is disappointing as a professional that those who are in charge of us give us so those who are in charge of us give us so limited time. no message has gone out to the public which is really misleading. i have had patients shouting at me on the telephone. i wanted to leave

dentistry ijust telephone. i wanted to leave dentistry i just thought, telephone. i wanted to leave dentistry ijust thought, why am i bothering. what about the cost of all this? spiralling. ppe is generally up 1000%. fresh challenges keep coming. we have to prioritise people in pain but there are people out there who have paid for treatment, who are mid treatment, who need stuff doing and who will not be seen for months and months. it is not that i don't want to but i wa nt to it is not that i don't want to but i want to see them in a safe manner. dentistry is nowhere near being back to normal and it is possible it never will be. dan johnson, bbc news. it is one of the biggest winners of the global pandemic, and when lockdown hit, zoom went from an obscure video conferencing service to a household staple almost overnight. this week the company reported nearly 300 million participants a day were taking part in its conference calls at the peak

of the lockdown. jayne mccubbin looks at the highs and lows of a service hardly anyone knew the name ofjust a few months ago. zoom, it is everywhere, on the bbc... we are well-positioned to control crowds and social distancing. well, we have lost scott parson for the time being. in the house of commons... in the great news of this, great community spirit... please, carry on. technology no—one had flipping herd of ten months ago but in lockdown we we re of ten months ago but in lockdown we were living our best or worst zoom life. let's cross over to oxford university where a high level meeting of academics is taking place

via videoconference call. with a whole group of people on the screen and in the last minute i could see reach behind me. that's the husband, unaware the camera could see him. he crawled across the floor. this is in a group chat with 0xford academia, the elite. how is the dating by zoom going? i have given it up. this is john, we have met before, back when we sampled seem dating. what can you talk about, you are not doing anything. it is the same old conversation. it is like, i am watching some tv, just like the last five nights you have asked me. what can you do? i cannot go out

anywhere. hello, introduce yourself. idoa anywhere. hello, introduce yourself. i do a podcast and i believe you're calling me about my social media zoom calling me about my social media zoom faux pas. you bet we. we selected a select group of arches fa ns to selected a select group of arches fans to meet one of the cast and then... the first 30 seconds it went really well and then all of a sudden i heard this kind of eastern european techno and i did not know what the hell was going on. what happened is not appropriate for a brea kfast happened is not appropriate for a breakfast audience but it involves a security breach now known as a zoom bomb. i never slept down the lead of my laptop so fast. i will not lie to you, i was angry as hell but it was a baptism of fire. it sounds like

it. it can be carnage but, for family and friends like this, and this, and this, purejoy. all hail the zoom quiz. which thousands of you are sorting out every week. should we start and take a moment to celebrate the beauty of your vegetable self—portraits. celebrate the beauty of your vegetable self-portraits. we started with quite conventional zoom quizzes, one of the seven wonders of the world, what is the capital of morocco but then it became more elaborate. the number of people getting involved. my grandmother are now video call with which i never thought would happen. it is amazing

to get that connection. it is actually really nice. last question, who won the vegetable—based self—reported competition? who won the vegetable—based self-reported competition? that was me. idid self-reported competition? that was me. i did went with a potato carving. i think altogether, me. i did went with a potato carving. ithink altogether, let's join in, a round of applause for david. final round of applause. add round of applause for the technology which is keeping us connected. jayne mccubbin, bbc news that is one of the weirdest films i have seen on this programme for quite a while. just quirky. vegetable painting. sarah has played close attention. have you had any zoom close attention. have you had any zoom instances? that is quite familiari zoom instances? that is quite familiar i do the weekly quizzing with some friends. that is the round

we're doing week, vegetable portraits. inspiration for the zoom quizzes. the weather is looking hit and miss. strong winds into the forecast. much cooler than this time last year. almost 20 degrees cooler for some of us and showers around. this is a scene in derbyshire. menacing showers. and the next few days to keep the cooler, showering weather. it will get windier. winds could be causing disruption. low pressure setting out towards the north—east. of isobars under the map as well so driving those risk northerly winds. a day of sunshine and showers once the initial rain please away. the show was heavier and more frequent in northern and eastern england. southern england will avoid the showers in the afternoon. 35 miles per hour gusts in the south. plenty of heavy

blustery showers further north. gusts reaching possibly 60 miles per hour so enough to cause a bit of disruption. temperature was, highs of about 9— 70 degrees but feeling colder when you add the strength of the wind. —— 17 degrees. into this evening, most of the showers in the south fade away but then we have a persistent rain working south across northern ireland, wales, northern england as well. either side, and the clear skies, quite a chilly night with temperatures down to single figures. tomorrow, whether driven by this of low pressure. especially towards the north and north—west. blustery conditions. in fa ct north—west. blustery conditions. in fact through the day to day and tomorrow, especially across the northern half of the uk, you could see gusts of 60 miles per hour. it

could cause some travel disruption. heavy showers moving south again some hail and thunder possible and temperatures in the mid— teams. i sunday, most of the wet weather towards the east. the headlights coming up next. —— good morning. welcome to breakfast with charlie stayt and naga munchetty. an emotional memorial service is held for george floyd who was killed while being detained by police officers in minneapolis. # amazing grace...# everybody wants justice, we want justice for george. he is going to get it. face coverings are to be made

compulsory on public transport in england from june 15th, but there are concerns about how it will be enforced. police say they have received hundreds of e—mails and calls from the public about a new suspect in the madeleine mccann case. good morning. is retail ready to reopen? as stores prepared to be open their doors in england next week, the experience of shopping could look and feel very different. i'll explain what changes could be coming. good morning. the first time in over 20 years, good morning. the first time in over 20 yea rs, test good morning. the first time in over 20 years, test cricket will be back on the bbc this summer. there will be highlights of every england match darting with three tests against the west indies next month. —— starting with. it's friday, june 5. our top story. there've been emotional scenes at a memorial service in minneapolis to commemorate the life of george floyd, the 46—year—old man whose death at the hands of four police officers has sparked protests across the united states.

a lawyer for the family told mourners that a "pandemic of racism" led to his death. thousands of people have demonstrated in american cities for a tenth consecutive day, the marches have been largely peaceful. jane 0'brien has more. # amazing grace...# a moving farewell to george floyd from minneapolis, the city where he met his death. family members described him as a loving father, son, and brother. george was somebody who was always welcome and made everybody feel like they were special. everybody wants justice for george, he's going to get it. he's going to get it. the reverend al sharpton, a black activist, spoke the eulogy, but also urged protesters to seize the moment while the eyes

of the world were watching to demand lasting police reform and confront racial injustice. what happened to floyd happens every day in this country in education, in health services, and in every area of american life! it's time for us to stand up in george's name and say "get your knee off our necks!" because of the coronavirus pandemic, the service was closed, but hundreds of people gathered at this makeshift memorial of flowers placed around the block where mr floyd died when a police officer knelt on his neck. it's still a crime scene, but it's also become a place for people to reflect and respond to the tragedy. this is supposed to be the land of opportunity and grace. look at this. i think this is so important, especially since i'm from the suburbs. this has raised a whole new movement talking about black lives matter and how we really need to come together and address this issue.

the service ended with eight minutes and 46 seconds of silence to represent the amount of time mr floyd was pinned to the ground and eventually stopped breathing. chanting: george floyd! what do we want? his body will be taken to north carolina for a public viewing and then to houston, texas for burial. jane 0'brien, bbc news, minneapolis. there've been a series of demonstrations here in the uk, the latest in birmingham. the organisers said britain had a duty to stand in solidarity with the united states and said they wanted to expose racism and police brutality in the uk. west midlands police said an estimated 4,000 people took part. face coverings will be made compulsory for anyone using public transport from june the 15th, in england, to help stop the spread of coronavirus. failure to comply with the new measures could lead to a fine. it comes as the number of people who have died from the virus

in the uk reaches almost 40,000, as keith doyle reports. it does not seem that long ago that people wearing face coverings out and about were an oddity. now it seems perfectly normal. and from june 15 in england it will be obligatory on buses, trains, trams, ferries, and planes. loudspeaker: use a face covering while travelling... there will be some exceptions for children and disabled people, but the transport secretary said that wearing a face covering will be a condition of travel. you cannot travel unless you're wearing the face covering and we'll have people there to remind you, there will be posters that remind you, it will be quite a visual thing that peter is working on. there will also other powers, so ultimately it could lead to fines. i very much hope we won't be in that situation. in scotland, where face coverings are recommended on public transport, the government will consider making them compulsory. in northern ireland, they are recommended where social distancing isn't impossible. and wales has not yet made any recommendations on face coverings. transport unions have welcomed the move, which they said

is overdue, and the doctors' union, the bma, has asked why the requirement is being brought in right away and that it should be widened to other areas where social distancing isn't always possible. voiceover: nhs test and trace will contact you to trace people you might have infected. the nhs test and trace scheme in england is key to controlling the spread of the virus. it's up and running with thousands of people in place to contact those who'ave come in contact with the virus. voiceover: the nhs covid-19 app... part of this is a smart phone app which has been trialled in the isle of wight. the government says this should be up and running by the end of the month. the app will be up and running this month? well, it was running in the isle of wight and we will make sure it will be running as soon as we make — as soon as we think it is robust. 0k, ijust want to check, you said it'll be in place this month. it will be rolled out

across the uk this month? i would like to think we would be able to manage it by this month, yes. the 14—day quarantine for most arrivals into the uk, which starts on monday, has caused a rift between the government and the airline industry. british airways did not take part in a meeting with the home secretary, priti patel, yesterday. it's thought agreement on air bridges, which would help the tourism industry, is still way off. keith doyle, bbc news. let's get more on this, our political correspondent iain watsonjoins us now from westminster. so, face coverings, once they weren't necessary, now they are going to be compulsory? that's right. i think quite a few things have changed since that initial assessment, and argo. there were worries about the shortage of ppe in the health service, with people trying to get face masks, perhaps deprived people who really need them. the government says face coverings, not necessarily medical standard, you could have home—made

face coverings to travel on public transport. that is one thing that has changed. the other is simply this, on june 15 has changed. the other is simply this, onjune 15 in england, lockdown is going to be eased further, department stores, for example will be able to do non—essential retail, that will increase demand for public transport and there is recognition from the government that people may find it difficult to socially distance when they are on public transport. so i think they are now adopting a better safe tha n think they are now adopting a better safe than sorry approach. that said, the scientific evidence is very mixed on this. dominic raab, when standing infor mixed on this. dominic raab, when standing in for borisjohnson said the science was —— his stance was nuanced, i think that is code for disagreement among advisers. this does seem to be a political decision as well as a medical decision. boris johnson mentioned at the end of april, a possible clue, he was advising people but not forcing people to wear masks at the time and said this may give people the confidence to move back to work,

people who were worried mixing with other people while the virus was possibly still in the community. so i think this may give people confidence to go out and who knows? maybe in due course the government may yet look at its two metre distancing recommendations and perhaps if people get used to wearing face coverings, those may be revised as well. iain, thank you very much. we'll be speaking to the transport secretary, grant shapps, at 7:30am. police say they have received hundreds of emails and calls from the public about a new suspect in the madeleine mccann case. prosecutors say they believe madeleine — who disappeared in portugal in 2007 — is dead, and they are investigating a convicted sex offender who is in prison in germany. let's get the latest now from our correspondent gavin lee, who's in praia da luz. good morning to you. this was a major development yesterday and part of this was an appeal or information

and there was a big response? yeah, more than 270 calls to the met police. this £20,000 reward for information that leads to the conviction of the person responsible for the disappearance of madeleine mccann from apartment five a, the apartment behind me, at the hotel clu b apartment behind me, at the hotel club complex back in 2007. it's interesting, there is no visible police presence in praia da luz, there is no appeal action going on that we are aware of. what we understand is portuguese police believe while they are cooperating with german and english investigators, they say the focus is on trying to attract the attention of possibly tens of thousands of tourists who were here in may, 2007, who by chance may have a picture of video footage of the suspect or the two videos he was driving. the police, having published two of the

pictures of the properties he was living out, one of the properties, a farmhouse, one local told us she recognised him living there, she recognised him living there, she recognised the picture, the partial naming. when she saw it, christian b, she said that was something she remembered from the 905. and the campervan as well. she once remembered an argument with him and his partner, shouting, thank you didn't seem to be a volatile per5on. she was surprised he was arrested, but we had a picture of a man who was living a life of criminality. source5 telling us he was involved in drugs, he was involved in burglary a5 in drugs, he was involved in burglary as well, a possibility he initially tried to commit a burglary here first. we are starting to get a picture. the moment —— but at the moment portuguese police are giving very little away. just a little dropout on the line there. let's see if we can carry on if the line is 0k. if we can carry on if the line is ok. you mentioned the specifics of some of the lines there, asking to look at. there are two vehicles,

aren't there? and if anyone found in or around that time inadvertently, there may have been information contained that you wouldn't have been aware of before? yeah, i think the three things, the two cars, the jaguar xj kr, the iconic old volkswagen, the we5tralia, and getting a picture of what was happening ju5t getting a picture of what was happening just before and a portuguese phone number they have also published. i think they are also published. i think they are also hoping, there were reports he told a friend in a bar in germany during the 10th anniversary of the disappearance of madeleine mccann. there is a possibility people who

knew him or tourists may have some sort of footage. notjust a strong development, but solid evidence in this case. yesterday we spoke to clarence mitchell, the spokesperson for the family. the spokesperson for kate and gerry mccowan, they say they welcome developments but this must be an agonising time for them, as it has been over the years —— gerry mccann. the investigations from the portuguese and british, remember it was only six years ago the british met police were conducting searches for the body of madeleine mccann, back in 2014. when i was at the farmhouse yesterday, one of the two properties that christine b was using, it is less than e—mail from where the met police were doing that search. —— less tha n police were doing that search. —— less than one male, so we are starting to see an area that is quite close and where they were before, we're still waiting. we still need information from the

portuguese police as to what their involvement will be now that they have this information from germany. the germans have been working on this for three years, solidly, privately and quietly. they are putting out this information. they have gotte n putting out this information. they have gotten to a point where they need public information now if they are to progress any further. gavin, thank you very much stop gavin reporting from praia da luz this morning. the luxury car maker bentley is to cut 1,000 jobs in the uk — about a quarter of its workforce. the firm's manufacturing site in crewe is working at half its normal capacity because of a downturn in sales. bentley which is owned by volkswagen is expected to give more details later today. take a look at these pictures from norway. it's the moment a powerful landslide caused a house to topple over and others to be swept into the sea in the town of alta. it happened after hours of heavy rain. nobody is reported to have been hurt, but a dog had to be rescued by helicopter and is said to be ok.

that could have gone horribly the other way. heavy rainfall is what caused that. we have had rain but i do not think it is going to be as bad as that. many of us do need heavy rainfall for our gardens and there is some innovative forecast over the next few days. in fact, as we head into the weekend, we can see more rain on the weekend than during the whole of may. it is also the strength of the wind to take note of. this is the picture in

derbyshire. the could be a bit of hailand derbyshire. the could be a bit of hail and thunderstorms as well. but cool and showering for the next few days and turning windier, all down to the deep area of low pressure setting in the north—east at the moment. those went picking up further as we head through tonight and entered tomorrow. blustery showers for many of us and most of them across part of northern and eastern england. further south, fewer showers, a bit of sunshine around but really gusty winds, 35—45 miles per hour winds. heavy showers in wales. north—eastern england, some thunderstorms and hail as well. scotland, more persistent rain through the day and gusts of wind possibly reaching 60 miles per hour. with the trees in full leaf, that could cause disruption. temperature is only about nine — 17 degrees. the lower pa rt is only about nine — 17 degrees. the lower part for the time of year, especially when you add on the

strength of the wind. more persistent rain working its way south across northern ireland, northern england, northern wales. either side of the rain, it will turn quite chilly. temperatures down into the mid— single figures on saturday morning. saturday's weather dominated by a deep area of low pressure moving south across the uk. you can see the real squeeze into the isobars. not just you can see the real squeeze into the isobars. notjust today but entered tomorrow. be aware that could be of up to 60 miles per hour, especially across the northern half of the uk. travel disruption is possible. saturday, bit of sunshine here and there. no—one is immune to a few showers. probably the heaviest across parts of eastern england with hail possible. into sunday, drier and less windy. some rain around eastern england. further north and

west fewer rain. a chilly around the east coast. 10— 13 degrees. 19 celsius towards the south—west. u nsettled, celsius towards the south—west. unsettled, plus street through the weekend. next week, largely dry, a bit of sunshine reappearing, like to wind and it will gradually warm up into next week. as protests sparked by george floyd' 5 death continue across america, social media has been filled with images of people standing in solidarity with the anti—racism movement. this footage, which has been viewed more than 22 million times, demonstrates that unity. it shows the moment when 18—year—old leonardo monteiro kneels in a peaceful protest in front of the police. as the officers move forward his friend alex ariel kneels in front of him, helping him to his feet as the police push them back towards the barriers. we can now speak

to leonardo and alex. theyjoin us from washington. good morning from the uk and thank you from joining us. what happened? you decided to go to this demonstration to protest and then? well, we decided to go to this protest, we took a shuttle 30 minutes into dc, it is not far from where we live. we made our way to the front of the barricade and people were mostly trying to speak to the officers that we re trying to speak to the officers that were there... that is kind of where

that situation occurred. that is not what should have been blown up that is what was blown up. we had a bit ofa is what was blown up. we had a bit of a confrontation that but it remained peaceful. all the other confrontations started to boil a little bit but that one remained pretty peaceful and that is how 20 minutes later we decided to split up and make our way back so we could find of full the protectors, guess you could say and that is when the second part of the walk broke out and turned viole nt second part of the walk broke out and turned violent against us. that was that part of it at least. how did it feel, tell us about the atmosphere? you obviously there to show your solidarity with the anti—

race movement. it was electric. i could not give you a number but it felt like there were thousands of people on our side. you had the best day ever and shall appear and feel the emotion in the air and have it almost drained from you, that feeling of animosity when you could feeling of animosity when you could feel that something was just off. the anger wasjust feel that something was just off. the anger was just so thick, sadness was so the anger was just so thick, sadness was so prevalent. it was something to see and be there. everybody felt the same way that you did, if not more or less. it was something else. i have never been anything like that or beena i have never been anything like that or been a part of anything close to it. it was definitely something surreal. there was a feeling around

those times, how would you like things to progress from here in terms of what should happen next? things to progress from here in terms of what should happen next7m the future, with everyone using their voices and getting involved, there are lots of movements going on and the progress where people can live and contribute to this group and actually make a difference and make a change, maybe donating or acting in communities where they can participate. things that can help the community. we want to start locally and then from there try to expand. we are from the northern virginia area which is pretty

popular. there is a lot that goes through here, 30 minutes from dc. honestly, if we could start here and build our community, let them know that we are here and trying to build something strong together, i think we can open some eyes and then from there we can get the message out that these people are for real. they wa nt that these people are for real. they want to be taken seriously and want some change. we have been working with unknown profit movement, apap, andl with unknown profit movement, apap, and i have been talking to the head of that and they have done some really good stuff. we have been working on think in the community and hope to expand. thank you very much for talking to us today. it's just advice for now, but in a matter of days wearing

a face covering will become compulsory on public transport in england. it's a move the mayor of london, sadiq khan, has been calling for, for months. hejoins us now from his home in south london. good morning to you and thank you for your time. it is worth reminding people because this is a new ruling, a condition of travel that will come to pass in england and of course that will affect london and you are the mayor of london. remind people exactly what it will mean. if you wa nt to exactly what it will mean. if you want to use public transport in our city, the bus, the tube, the tram, the underground, a condition of using public transport is that you must wear a non—medical facial covering and the advantage of doing so, it stops you spreading the disease if you are asymptomatic or presymptomatic and it can also stop it catching it as well if other people wearing. all the evidence

from china to south korea, from germany to austria, is that doing so can lead to the spread of the virus being less fast. but keep your social distancing, do not leave home u nless social distancing, do not leave home unless you have to, hand sanitiser and additionally wearing non—medical facial masks when you cannot keep your distance. were you always of the opinion that this would have been the right thing to do for health reasons in london and if you we re health reasons in london and if you were why did you not make it happen sooner? the evidence was quite clear from early march and april, speaking to colleagues doing this, and i was lobbying the government for more than two months to do this. my concern about going it alone, it is important when you have a crisis that you have message clarity and you have a national consensus. for

example, in london, all the public transport is under my control what we did not want was confusion in relation to commuters coming from outside london but also a blurring of the messaging so that is why it was important to try to persuade the government to do the right thing and my concern and i will go as far as saying my anger is the delay it has taken because this could mean more people having caught the virus in the community because there are sometimes when you can not keep the social distancing and this delay has been no good for anybody. you are in an accountable position and what you seem to be saying, you could have brought this in sooner, albeit, i am not quite clear which part of the tra nsfer system not quite clear which part of the transfer system is not within your control, but you could have done something sooner. yes, the commuter trains coming into london are not under our control. and there is concern about london having a different message from the rest of

the country. it is important to have a national response but also i am well aware that many, many londoners, from national media and other forms of media, it would have been really confusing for londoners who may have been inadvertently been breaking the rules without being aware therefore it is important to have clarity from the government and no confusion. i am pleased the government has done this u—turn. from monday week, anybody wants to use public transport across england will have to wear a mask. this is not a surgical mask, pp should be reserved for healthcare workers. you can make it at home with class, a bandanna, it is easy to do so. how does this work in practice? i turn up does this work in practice? i turn up to get on the trip and i am not

wearing a face mask and i tell whoever is at the gate, i say, well, i have a breathing condition so i cannot wear a mask. what happens next? do i have to prove it? who decides, given that information, do you take it on face value? there would be discretion and in good faith so stuff will be applying discretion and if you have a good explanation you will not be forced to wear, similar to a child. but us wearing this. the virus spreading faster. no—one would want people with a health condition to force them to wear it... if i may, with a health condition to force them to wear it... if! may, in terms of how it works in practice, and it may be a particular problem in london but he can apply elsewhere. if you are on a bus or train or the elsewhere. if you are on a bus or train orthe tube, elsewhere. if you are on a bus or train or the tube, free people sitting opposite you are not wearing face mask, you might well have a

problem with that. on a practical level but also you might think, do i need to ask them why are they not allowed to? it could end up in awkward situations. how do you advise people around that? absolutely and that is one of the reasons i want to educate the public. a lot of this will boil down to positive peer pressure but also do not take the law into your hands. speak to a member of staff to make sure it is an force. the national police chief councils and other transport authorities across england are making sure we have consistency but i have been really impressed by the overwhelming majority of londoners and those across the country following the rules and i am confident that by and large most people follow the rules voluntarily but if there are examples of people not wearing facial covering, people

will ask and they can explain why they are not or pressure is put on them ina they are not or pressure is put on them in a way and they will start wearing one. going back to the reasons why you did not bring in the ruling further. i have heard your explanation. there might be people listening to that and thinking, there is an uncomfortable truth that that delay would have cost lives. do you think that is the case? my concern is the delay in this being mandatory may have led to people catching the virus in the community which may not have done. we need to make sure that there is still social distancing and the maximum capacity should be 30% across the tube system and bus stops as well. now double—decker buses only 20 people are allowed. it is normally 85. by and large, people have abided by this. people who use public

transport, they have been asked to avoid rush—hour. the reality is, for the foreseeable future, where discouraging people to use public transport. but where face covering from monday week. thank you very much for your time, sadiq from monday week. thank you very much foryourtime, sadiq khan, the mayor of london. hello this is breakfast with charlie stayt and naga munchetty. our main story this morning — an emotional memorial service has been held for george floyd — the man killed while being detained by police officers in minneapolis. his death sparked protests across america and around the world. members of mr floyd's family and the reverend jesse jackson were among several hundred people at the service at north central university in downtown minneapolis. all in downtown minneapolis. these people came to s! brother all these people came to see my brother and that is amazing to me, that he touched so many people's hearts, because he did touch our

hearts. you come to where we're from, people are crying right now, that's how they loved him. you know, iamjust that's how they loved him. you know, i am just staying as strong as i can because i need to get it out. it's a rule the government has been against enforcing for months, but from june the 15th face coverings will be made compulsory, for anyone using public transport in england. similar measures are already in place across europe, where infection rates are much lower. so, why now? we're joined by the transport secretary, grant shapps. good morning to you. thank you for joining us on the programme. why now? the government said they weren't necessary just weeks now? the government said they weren't necessaryjust weeks ago. the— the evidence looks quite marginal on this. the reason now, or rather monday week, on the 15th, we will see a big uplift in the number of people using public transport, because that is when non—essential retail returns. it is when some

secondary schools and year ten and 12 come back. so we expect to see more people on the transport system, even though we are asking people to go out of their way to avoid it for the time being. and therefore, the possibility of not being able to maintain distancing becomes more real. but we have seen and you have seen, we had sadiq khan on the programmejust seen, we had sadiq khan on the programme just a few minutes ago, people crammed and packed into tubes, and not told by the government you should be wearing face coverings. of course there was general optional face coverings. but now you are telling us we have two. that's right. now people who were packed, crammed into tubes in the rush hour, and you told them then they didn't have too.|j rush hour, and you told them then they didn't have too. i want to pick up they didn't have too. i want to pick up on that, actually. i had asked ms hendy, who did the olympics transport, and talking about network rail, to look out the crowding situation. in fact, there hasn't

been much rounding going on, which is because they have managed to manage the number of additional trains very actively, the number of additional buses coming back up, but of course the main message has been please avoid public transport. i think going forward there is the chance that people won't be able to at all times maintain social distancing. i think that in fact the guidance explicitly recommends that case. and we will make it compulsory to re m ove case. and we will make it compulsory to remove doubt that that is what people need to do. while people aren't using the system, and the system has been at about 5% of usual usage, to give you an indication of how empty it has been by and large, it hasn't really been a particular advantage. apart from the ones who are stuck in a crowded tube? when you say that, where you talking about? wejust you say that, where you talking about? we just showed you pictures from london. ijust want

about? we just showed you pictures from london. i just want to take issue with that. you keep showing one picture from canning town on a specific day which was very early on. it isn't the case as you were saying. transport being overcrowded, we have been watching, very carefully. and i said this quite openly when i announced we would make it compulsory yesterday, it's not by comparison to washing your hands, carrying hand sanitiser and doing things like, for example, making sure you are maintaining social distancing, not touching your face, face covering is some way down the list. we just think we should do absolutely everything possible, particularly as these numbers start to come down and as the number of people travelling will indeed increase. so it's an additional measure. it was marginal, we accept that it was marginal, the scientists aren't in full agreement about it but we think we should do everything possible as the numbers come back up again. in the event of wanting to do everything possible, if you are land

garrett has been in touch and says why don't you implement the measures today? what are you waiting for? —— len garrett. only about 3% of people using the transport system, it's by and large very empty. it's only of marginal assistance and thirdly, when we see numbers come which we will do on june 15, that when we see numbers come which we will do onjune15, that is the when we see numbers come which we will do onjune 15, that is the time for, you know, the british transport police and others and train companies to be ready for it. it seems like sensible timing for me. this is not some panacea, wearing a face covering, that has been argued about and scientists have said that before. i have commented on their advice before. and that has been that it advice before. and that has been thatitis advice before. and that has been that it is a debatable point because

as people take mass coverings of and on “— as people take mass coverings of and on —— on and off, it can lead to cross infection. but i do think on balance it is right to do everything possible, that is why we are going to re m ove possible, that is why we are going to remove the doubt and provide some reassurance to passengers as well. it isn't some sort of panacea that if only we had done this they would have been a largely different outcome. very few people have been travelling on public transport. it has been a bit of a moot point until now. you can sit will get busier on the 15th of this month and therefore this is a good time to do it. when sadiq khan on this programme is says this delay, has been good for no—one and suggested it could have prevented more deaths, you profoundly disagree with him? he is disagreeing with the scientists if he is saying that as the scientists have been very clear. they have been

struggling to provide conclusive evidence on balance. we are convinced it can't do any harm, i think it will do some good, and that is why it is a good idea to introduce it. but there is no point introducing it — the most important thing is two metres social distancing, so if you have two to social distancing, this is a marginal impact, but nonetheless we know that and the guidance says that. we know in some circumstances you won't be able to maintain two metres of social distancing when you are on public transport or perhaps entering into public transport. and even though it may only be fleeting, as you passed somebody, there is something else you can do. wejust wa nt to something else you can do. wejust want to clarify that by making it a compulsory condition of travel, a condition of actually using public transport in order to remove the doubt from the situation. people i have been speaking to our broadly welcoming that. i think it will help remove ambiguity about that. it's

interesting. i'm listening to the language you're using and you saying it is marginal, it can't do any harm, it's not exactly persuasive language, is it? yeah, well i'm afraid, i would love to make it com pletely afraid, i would love to make it completely beyond any doubt. but that isn't the advice scientists have been able to provide. there had been numerous studies on this and there hasn't been conclusive — but we are now certain on balance it won't do harm and it will certainly reassure passengers to do it. i think it is something people can do, knowing that if anything it is going to assist other passengers, when you wear a face covering, what you are doing is helping potentially to prevent that from spreading to other people. understood. so it's the law, will it be against the law to wear a face covering on public transport? it will be a condition for travel. you won't be able to use public transport unless you are wearing it,

and so you could be asked to leave. you could be fined, i don't believe that will be necessary. in the vast majority of cases, the person i asked said we haven't seen mass overcrowding on public transport. sir peter handy also brought in the alcohol ban on tfl london transport and there were all of these discussions. in the end, most people wa nt to discussions. in the end, most people want to do the right thing and get on top of this disease. here's something small, but important, that we can do to try to help. so i think most people would be very keen to follow doubt. boris johnson on may 20, during prime minister '5 time, talking about test and trace now, said "we will have a world beating testing and tracing programme." a senior official in the guardian said

this may not be fully operational until september or october. what is the problem? i saw that, but it was utterly commenting on how the app will continue to improve. anyone with a phone who downloads apps knows about that and all of the rest of it. it will be continually improved. and right now we have this minute and nhs test and trace system which is indeed on global scales, extremely impressive. to give you an example, yesterday it was announced 233,000 example, yesterday it was announced 233, 000 tests example, yesterday it was announced 233,000 tests have been carried out, i think that is a new record. now, right now, if anyone watching this is feeling ill and they think they might have covid—19 symptoms, they can go online right this minute and book a test and there are tests available. the scale of testing

available. the scale of testing available now is certainly amongst the best in the world. we have 25,000 contract razors right now who are making thousands of goals —— 25,000 contact tracers, and they are seeking information like you they have spoken to, who they have been in contact with, so any chest contact and trace —— so the nhs contact and trace —— so the nhs contact tracing operation is in place. and i think the app continue to improve, i think apps are never really finished. so is the app at world beating ability? if anyone has coronavirus symptoms right now, you can go to guv .uk —— gov.uk...

coronavirus symptoms right now, you can go to guv .uk -- gov.uk... is nhs test and trace world beating, today? the prime minister promised it would be world—class and world —class it would be world—class and world—class beating by the first of june. let me give you the facts. we have unbelievable amount two of testing available, 25,000 contact tracers, which i imagine as well beating in terms of numbers of people. and they have contact thousand —— contacted thousands of people. they think this is substantial and very quickly built contact tracing system. grant shapps, transport secretary, thank you for speaking to us this morning. thank you. mike has news of test cricket highlights returning to the bbc. for the first time in over 20 years, test cricket will be back on the bbc, with highlights of every test and one day internationals this summer. i guess we took three to our sport

on tv for granted. —— free—to—air sport on tv for granted. it starts with three tests against the west indies, with the rest of the summer's fixtures, still to be decided. moments like shane warne's ‘ball of the century‘ — because of the way it spins, 27 years ago that was at old trafford. moments like this used to be regular on the bbc, and they'll be back once again next month. there will be highlights from every match indeed on bbc 2, starting with the first day of the first test in southampton. former england captain sir alastair cook will be part of the presentation team, and to get you in the mood for things classic games will feature every weekend in june. a number of american football players, have called on their sports governing body, the nfl, to speak out against racism. in a video posted on social media,

the players say the organisation, has failed them since the death of george floyd. this is what we, the players... ..would like to hear you state. we, the national football league condemn racism... ..and the systematic oppression of black people. we, the national football league, admit we were wrong in silencing our players' peacefully protesting. we, the national football league believe black lives matter. black lives matter. well, the nfl have responded, pointing to the millions of dollars they say they donate to help address systemic racism. michaeljohnson says no one, should stay silent in the fight against racism. the four—time olympic champion, believes the movement has more momentum than he's seen before. this is not only black people, who are sounding this alarm. this is everyone who understands and appreciates fairness. and, you know, are fed up and they're demanding change. and so i'm hopeful that a year from now we're not looking back at this time and

nothing has happened. when the premier league resumes in less than two weeks' time there will be some rule changes. for example, teams will be allowed, to make up to five substitutions in a game, rather than the traditional number. each team will also be allowed to have 9 players on their bench, instead of the usual 7. it's all to do with player welfare, with shorter recovery times between matches and the risk of more injuries. matches start up again on the 17th ofjune. frankie dettori, set a new course record, on the first day, of one of, flat racing's main meetings of the year, at newmarket. it had been seven months, since the course hosted any racing, but, 7 weeks late, the guineas festival is underway. coronavirus restrictions though, meant there was no crowd, and very few people at all, to see dettori ride to victory, in the second race of the day. and this is building up to the first classic of the season, the 2000 guineas tomorrow

first run in1809, when it was named after the prize money 2000 guineas which in today's money is 1 pound and 5 p. a little bit of history for you. thank you very much. just checking the old money figure was right. laughter. on monday we were at an outdoor market in barnsley as it reopened, now attention is turning to other shops in england which will be able to open up again injust over a week. ben is at a shopping centre in watford. right now it is great but they are busy trying to come up with ways of making shopping possible. yes, you are right. it is a little bit creepy actually being in here with everything so close. you might notice, some of the shops have winter things, they are advertising easter around the corner so just

logistical challenge to make sure they have the right stuff in the shop when they reopened but crucially as well how they can reopen safely. the retail director is here with me. it is a logistical challenge. they have been shut ten weeks and now potentially in england they will be next monday. huge job. there are two parts, particularly in somewhere like this. there is the centre and making sure staff and stores are safe. and then the store have to organise themselves. it is not just about putting have to organise themselves. it is notjust about putting stickers on the floor and the rustic is on the floor but once it is reopened, making sure all the customers adhere. —— there are stickers on the floor. they can manage the queue here. it is much harder to do that

ona high here. it is much harder to do that on a high street because who polices that? that is exactly right. it is easier in a confined controlled environment like a shopping centre ora environment like a shopping centre or a retail park. you can control people once they are in that because it isa people once they are in that because it is a managed space. you have people that can control crowds. the high street it is much more flexible and dynamic. there is not an overarching ownership. the companies that manage the space. they have ambassadors to help move around making sure that happens is quite challenging. it will be a really different experience, shopping. it is not going to be a day out or particularly fun. what should people expect when they come to somewhere like this. it is going to be different from the way it was but

we're starting from a new base, a place where we are not shopping at all and people are desperate to get out and have some form of social interaction. that will set people '5 expectations but they will have to accept they may not be able to enter accept they may not be able to enter a shopping centre or even a high street when they want to. they may have to make an appointment. they may not touch the stock as they did. and they will need to limit their troops so if you have an appointment in the store, the appointment ends and they will have to leave. those types of changes will be quite confronting for a lot of people but from now where we are not able to do anything, people will accept that. for some retailers, it is really tough because i have to get a new stock in stock, lots of unsold stock

from the spring. are we going to expect big sales to get rid of some of the old stock? that is an interesting point. we track customer activity and we have seen it drop in april by 80% and over 90% in london. you can see the depth of change that has happened. we are starting from a com pletely has happened. we are starting from a completely new base and the point is that we will see some sales, some retailers will want to get rid of that winter stop, particularly in fashion but a lot of retailers stop their orders and so we will find with some retailers, they will not be as much stock as we envisage and therefore we will not have as many sales stop for a lot of retailers it is not seasonal. toyshop would have been selling easter toys but that will not be relevant for every retailer. i think you will be surprised at the few number of sales

we see. thank you and really good to see you. that is a sense of how shopping could look and feel very different when shops reopen in england from monday. all the usual stuff, looking around before, about the logistics that have been put in place here. suggestions you might have a mask and hand sanitise, remember coffee shops and food because it will not be open. it will because it will not be open. it will bea because it will not be open. it will be a functional visit, get in and get what you need but nonetheless all part of the big plan to try to get the economy moving again and retail a huge employer and a huge pa rt retail a huge employer and a huge part of our economy so the idea that it can get back to some normality. more from me later. does it feel really eerie being in a shopping mall with not many people there? really eerie being in a shopping mall with not many people there 7m

thisjob we are mall with not many people there 7m this job we are often in place as much earlier and before things open but it does feel strange seeing easter stock in the windows. they have a hugejob on easter stock in the windows. they have a huge job on their hands to make sure they get the right stuff in the shops at the right time so we can go out and buy it. easter seems so long ago now. a lifetime ago. it really does and it is interesting to see how they look at the layers and practicalities as and when it works out. i imagine we will be showing you how it works because people will be able to stick to those distancing. the royal hospital in chelsea — home of the chelsea pensioners — has been hosting its annualfounders day parade this week. but it's been a more sombre and scaled back event than normal because of the coronavirus pandemic. like many care homes it's been hit particularly hard, with 10 of its army veterans

dying from the virus, and dozens more infected. 0ur defence correspondentjonathan beale has been to see how the hospital is coping. earth to earth, ashes to ashes, dust to dust... with an average age of 82, death is part of life for the chelsea pensioners but, with the coronavirus, it has hit this community of army veterans especially hard. he was one of life's gentleman... lockdown has prevented them from attending the funerals of friends but they still remember every life lost with a simple service in the grounds. for the chaplain, it has been particularly busy. my normaljob is to take funerals but we have had 18 in ten weeks — ten through covid, eight other causes. and we have been unable to hold funerals here in the chapel. people have told me that this has been much worse than anything they ever encountered during many years of service.

the royal hospital went into lockdown well before the rest of the country, and the 300 pensioners who live here they took careful precaution, including military discipline social distancing, but that did not stop covid from breaching their defences. monica parrott is one of the 74 pensioners who contracted the virus and recovered. she says she feels blessed. it was awful but what was horrible as well is the fact that you are a bit scared. you do start to think a bit negatively about what is going to be happening to you and, you know, you feel a bit sorry for yourself and having a little cry now and again, a big cry now and again. even in this crisis, they've soldiered on. founders day is normally their grandest of occasions, with most of the pensioners on parade, with family and hundreds of guests. this year it has had to be

scaled back, with most pensioners watching from their windows. the royal hospital is better resourced than most care homes, with their own dedicated staff and even their own hospital on site, but that has not kept them immune from the virus. somehow, despite all our drills, it got in here and i think that is an illustration ofjust how difficult this disease is to deal with and hospitals, care homes all around the country have found that, despite their best efforts, it gets past the defences, and so the key is to have the procedures inside the place but contain it. that is what we have in place now. # we'll meet again, don't know where, don't know when...#. singing old song, along with a bit of military dark humour have kept their spirits up throughout this crisis. they have even turned a lawn into an aptly named 0utdoor pub.

while elsewhere the lockdown is now easing, they will still remain confined to base, but the pensioners too are looking forward to better times ahead. the upside is i have been in damnsite worse places than this and i've been in trenches and and i've been in sangers up in the hills of saudi arabia, at least here i get three meals a day and go to my bed at night and, best of all, nobody is shooting at me. have no fear, don't worry about it, we will meet again. # i know we'll meet again some sunny day...#. bravo, bravo. it isa it is a lovely piece and you are left with those words ringing in your ear, left with those words ringing in yourear, i left with those words ringing in your ear, i have been in worse places, have no fear. that wasjonathan beale reporting. sunshine that but not sure we will

get lots of this week. good morning. ican get lots of this week. good morning. i can promise you a little bit of sunshine out there today but it will be in between showers. some blue skies to start off the day in suffolk. many places are starting the day with an uncertain note with showers around. 0ver the day with an uncertain note with showers around. over the next few days, cooler and showery and turning windier, particularly tomorrow. low pressure driving our weather. the high—pressure we started the week with has faded away. really a day of sunny spells and heavy showers for many of us. the most frequent and heaviest of the showers across parts of northern and eastern england, further south, fewer of the showers. but certainly no—one is immune to catching one or two. 45 miles per hour winds along with showers and across parts of scotland and through

the irish sea, 55 miles per hour, possibly 60 miles per hour. more persistent rain across northern parts of scotland and a bit of snow over the highest mountain. hail and thunder likely at times as well. temperatures below par for the time of year, 9— 17 degrees. shay was fading away overnight but then this next batch of wet weather. —— showers fading away. under the clear skies, temperatures quite chilly and down into the single figures. saturday, you can see the squeeze in the isobars, particularly when conditions across scotland, northern ireland and wales. 0ver conditions across scotland, northern ireland and wales. over the next few days, gusts of around 60 miles per hour. trees in full leaf, that is enough to cause disruptions. heavy

scattered showers and thunderstorms across parts of eastern england. the rain across scotland and northern ireland. still rather cool for the time of year. a little bit drier and less windy by sunday. the headlights coming up next. good morning, welcome to breakfast with charlie stayt and naga munchetty. 0ur headlines today. # amazing grace #. an emotional memorial service is held for george floyd, who was killed while being detained by police officers in minneapolis. everybody wants justice. we want justice for george. he's going to get it. applause. face coverings are to be made compulsory on public transport in england from june 15th — but there are concerns about how it will be enforced. police say they have received hundreds of emails and calls from the public about a new suspect

in the madeleine mccann case. for the first time in over 20 years test cricket will be back on the bbc this summer. there will be highlights of every england match, starting with three tests against the west indies next month. it's friday the 5th ofjune. our top story. there've been emotional scenes at a memorial service in minneapolis to commemorate the life of george floyd, the 46—year—old man whose death at the hands of four police officers has sparked protests across the united states. a lawyer for the family told mourners that a "pandemic of racism" led to his death. thousands of people have demonstrated in american cities for a tenth consecutive day, the marches have been largely peaceful. jane 0'brien has more. # amazing grace...#. a moving farewell to george floyd from minneapolis, the city where he met his death.

family members described him as a loving father, son, and brother. george was somebody who was always welcome and made everybody feel like they were special. everybody wants justice for george, he's going to get it. he's going to get it. the reverend al sharpton, a black activist, spoke the eulogy, but also urged protesters to seize the moment while the eyes of the world were watching to demand lasting police reform and confront racial injustice. what happened to floyd happens every day in this country in education, in health services, and in every area of american life! it's time for us to stand up in george's name and say "get your knee off our necks!" because of the coronavirus pandemic, the service was closed,

but hundreds of people gathered at this makeshift memorial of flowers placed around the block where mr floyd died when a police officer knelt on his neck. it's still a crime scene, but it's also become a place for people to reflect and respond to the tragedy. this is supposed to be the land of opportunity and grace. look at this. i think this is so important, especially since i'm from the suburbs. this has raised a whole new movement talking about black lives matter and how we really need to come together and address this issue. the service ended with eight minutes and 46 seconds of silence to represent the amount of time mr floyd was pinned to the ground and eventually stopped breathing. chanting: george floyd! what do we want? his body will be taken to north carolina for a public viewing and then to houston, texas for burial. jane 0'brien, bbc news, minneapolis.

there've been a series of demonstrations here in the uk — the latest in birmingham. the organisers said britain had a duty to stand in solidarity with the us and said they wanted to expose racism and police brutality in the uk. west midlands police said an estimated 4,000 people took part. face coverings will be made compulsory for anyone using public transport from june the 15th in england, to help stop the spread of coronavirus. failure to comply with the new measures could lead to a fine. let's get more on this from our political correspondent iain watson, who joins us now from westminster. much talked about, this measure. why now? i think the reason why now from the point of view of the government is that this goes in step with their easing of the lockdown and so on june 15 when this becomes mandatory rather than advisory to wear face coverings on public transport, that is also when so—called nonessential

retail is opening, so for example department stores and the likes. there will be more people working in shops and more people shopping, demand for public transport will go up demand for public transport will go up and there is a recognition that in some cases it will be difficult to maintain social distancing if transport becomes more crowded. it was interesting in the interview with grant shapps on this programme, the transport secretary, that he didn't sound entirely enthusiastic about his own policy. he said at various times that this was no pa na cea , various times that this was no panacea, quite low down the list of things to do to avoid coronavirus, not as effective as washing your hands, and he pointed out that the scientific evidence was mixed. the scientists have been very clear that they are struggling... they've been struggling to provide the conclusive evidence on it. on balance, we are convinced that it certainly can't do any harm, we think it will do some good, and that's why we think it's a good idea to introduce. but, as i say, there's no point introducing it if... the most important thing is two metres' social distancing,

so if you've got two metres' social distancing, then this is a marginal impact. so there you go. a marginal impact says grant shapps but the government wa nts to says grant shapps but the government wants to be seen to be doing everything possible, he said, and wa nted everything possible, he said, and wanted to provide reassurance for passengers. i think this is partly a political and economic decision rather than just a scientific one. he was also keen to reject suggestions from the mayor of london and others that this should have been introduced very much earlier because he said the capacity on public transport was good enough for a social distancing, only 5% of the normal usage of public transport, but as that begins to tick up, then face masks, orface coverings i should say, will become compulsory. for the moment, thank you. the luxury carmaker bentley is to cut 1,000 jobs in the uk — about a quarter of its workforce. the firm's manufacturing site in crewe is working at half its normal capacity because of a downturn in sales. bentley, which is owned

by volkswagen, is expected to give more details later today. eight take a look at these pictures from norway. it's the moment a powerful landslide caused a house to topple over and others to be swept into the sea in the town of alta. it happened after hours of heavy rain. nobody is reported to have been hurt, but a dog had to be rescued by helicopter and is said to be ok. all is well. we will have the sport coming up a little later on. also all the business news and the weather, which has changed, as you will be aware, by now. patients are being warned not to expect business as usual when dentists are allowed to re—open in england on monday, due to a shortage of protective equipment. the british dental association says that many practices won't be ready because they claim guidelines came so late they've not had time to meet

the safety criteria. 0ur reporter dan johnson is at a dental surgery in birmingham for us this morning. good morning. we have heard from dentists for some time now that they face real issues about how and when they can be open and the supplies they can be open and the supplies they need. this is upcoming now. what are they saying? yes, good morning, there is realfrustration among dentists and i've never spoken to as many patients who were as desperate to get in the dentist chair because there are so many who have been suffering for so long now but they are being warned that if they have been waiting to see a dentist they will still not be able to see one anytime soon. and this is why. this dental surgery looks more like a why. this dental surgery looks more likea building why. this dental surgery looks more like a building site because there is so much work to do to get things ready to operate safely. i have to put social distancing measures in place and ppe has been a shortage, been a real issue, as well. that is

the only type of drill they will be picking up here, at least for the next few days. you can see at a reception they have to install these screens to keep staff safe. there is all sorts of work to do before they can see patients again. there will be no patients coming through the door here on monday, and according to the british dental association survey, that will be the same at two thirds of england's dental practices. phone rings. answering machine message: the surgery is now closed... empty surgeries and patients left in place. empty surgeries and patients left in pain. normal surgery will not be resuming at this time... dentistry felt the lockdown more than most. despite the government's announcement... and now, there is a real struggle to reopen on monday. unfortunately there will not be any patients here. we are hoping that a week's time we might be able to start seeing some of our own emergencies and do some very basic treatment. normal dental treatment is not

going to be happening for an awfully long time. this waiting room is going to be empty for months. and even then, ensuring the virus does not spread will have a huge impact. i would normally see between 50—60 patients on an average day. and what about now? now, um, when we start treating people and doing proper treatment with the drill, i think the most i will be able to see is five. only one patient will be in the surgery at a time, protective equipment will be repeatedly changed and there will be much more cleaning. so i reckon we're looking at 1.5 hours between each patient. we have literally just been given a guidance. it's given us less than one working day to get things in place. we have had to do all of this on our own, we've had no help, no guidance. we're not expecting to see routine care patients for 2—3 months. we will be open on monday but it will only be for urgent cases.

across england so many dentists say they just are not ready. we don't have key worker status. childcare is a massive problem. the biggest challenge has been sourcing correct personal protective equipment, ppe. patients will not be able to get through on the telephone because we're expecting to be very busy so, if that is the case, then just be patient. it is not a case ofjust getting a mask or opening the doors. we have to get policies in place. patients are ringing us up, they want to come in, we want to see our patients. i get to be a dentist today. so they have been left to treat themselves with only limited emergency care available. ahh. this was linda's attempt to do her own filling. ahh, it came out. so much need, so little capacity. we are going to come back to a very big mess. it is disappointing as a professional that those who are in charge of us

give us so limited time. and a message, knowing that a message has gone out to the public which is really misleading. i have had patients shouting at me on the telephone, because they want to get their treatment finished. i wanted to leave dentistry, ijust thought, why am i bothering? what about the cost of all this? spiralling. ppe generally is up 1,000%. this treatment room is now an equipment store and fresh challenges keep coming. we have obviously got to prioritise people in pain but there are people out there who have paid for treatment, who are mid—treatment, who need stuff doing, who will not get seen for months and months. and it is not that i don't want to, it's just that i want to see them in a safe manner. dentistry is nowhere near being back to normal and it is possible it never will be. so there are some major challenges ahead and a lot of work to be done

before dentists can actually get back to thejob. before dentists can actually get back to the job. if we come through to the treatment room, eddie is one of the dentists here, who is also whether the british dental association. what are the biggest hurdles to getting back to being reopen? many of my colleagues have been struggling for the past week, since the announcement, to try to get hold of ppe. we have had to source some of this from outside the uk. i understand the situation is beginning to improve but it is far too late for us to be ready and open on monday. this is the protective equipment, the sort of stuff you need to keep yourselves and patients safe from the virus. and as you can see from outside the whole throughput of patients through the practice will be relit restricted with what we have to do, and the ppe is obviously a major issue. if we don't have it we cannot see the patients. this is getting more expensive. absolutely. the amount of inflation on these because of the demand is huge. what do you think

the reality will be for patients next week and then looking further ahead? i think communication needs to be made centrally from the government to tell patients that it is not business as normal. many of our patients have been calling since the announcement on the tv and thinking they were coming in for a checkup next monday. they are certainly not and they probably will not be for quite a long time. where has this gone wrong? have dentists just not been prepared properly, have you not have the right guidance? it is a combination of things. communication throughout the whole thing has been poor. many of my colleagues only got last night the standard operating procedures we need to operate from. many of my colleagues have really been not happy at all with the communication that has come down centrally to them. i have spoken to some dentists who say they just cannot them. i have spoken to some dentists who say theyjust cannot make money if they can't see patients in the volume that they used to. are you worried that practices will go out of business, that patients would be able to see dentist at all, what do

you think the long—term future is? i'm worried. we will need financial support for a long time. many of my private colleagues have had financial support at all. if they go under it will put a huge dress under the nhs, which is already very difficult to. some big waiting list that will not be reduced any time soon. thank you very much. this is a situation in england with the hope that dentists will reopen on monday. there is no date yet in scotland, wales or northern ireland, but were saying things their do seem to have been better through the lockdown. there has been a lot more provision outside of england. a lot of challenges ahead and it could be a long while for anybody who is suffering before they are back in that chair. dan, thank you. we should also say that the british dental association is saying it will continue to work with dentists, support them, affect the latest guidance from public health england

and the government on ppe and infection control. it is 8:15am exactly. herfamily have never given up hope that they'd find her, but 13 years after she went missing, prosecutors in germany say they believe madeleine mccann is dead. the suspect has been named as christian b. in 1995 he left germany for portugal, which is where he lived until 2007. police say they have received hundreds of emails and calls from the public about him. for some of that time he used a house between lagos and praia da luz. police say he was in the resort and used a mobile on the night that madeleine disappeared. he's now serving time in a german prison. let's get the latest now from our correspondent gavin lee in praia da luz. if you would take us through some of the key elements of what german police have said and what they are asking people to do. the information they are looking for. this is an

appeal based on a number of... basically the sense of the life that he had here in praia da luz and what people might have seen or for example the places he lived. they put out images of two vehicles, jaguar xjr, put out images of two vehicles, jaguarxjr, and a put out images of two vehicles, jaguar xjr, and a volkswagen camper van, which he was using in and around may 2007, just before madeleine mccann disappeared from apartment 5a behind me in praia da luz. also the two buildings, an old farmhouse in the hills about a kilometre away from here that was said to have been used by him for that we are hearing from sources that we are hearing from sources that he used it for a storage depot for stolen goods. and a separate empty property he would frequent nearby, as well. and he called a mobile number, he was called on mobile number, he was called on mobile number, he was called on mobile number in praia da luz an hour before she went missing and

they are trying to find out more detail of who was on the other end of the call. there was obviously some success in terms of the response, we have had more than 270 called to the metropolitan police in the uk. the german police say 5 million people watched their equivalent of crimewatch and they have very useful information so far. what is interesting is here in portugal, praia da luz, there is no sense of a police appeal, no visibility on the streets, and we are hearing from portuguese police that they are saying this should be directed really at the thousands of tourists who are here in 2007 who may by chance have pictures or images of the suspect or his vehicles in the background to piece together and perhaps go from a significant development to clear evidence. considering how you were saying portuguese police feel that witnesses will be important, how locally is this being received? this has been going on since 2007. yes,

and there are some locals we have been speaking to in the past 24 hours who are aware of the suspect, partially named as christian b stop one person told us they were contacted up to two years ago by german authorities asking questions about this man. they remembered he lived in the 19905 in this fun has come and up until the early 2000 they recognise the vehicle and said that she remembered two encounters. 0ne that she remembered two encounters. one where he was involved in almost a fight, very aggressive row with another german man, a second incident with a big row and screaming against his partner stop she said she was completely surprised, had no idea of the reports of past child six weight convictions in germany and another resident saying they were aware he was frequenting one flat possibly use to store drugs and that he was involved in drugs and he was always without money. we are starting to get more of a picture so it is interesting that portuguese police

are very interesting that portuguese police are very reluctant to give detail. it is also because they felt personally hurt the criticism that they failed to properly investigate allegations in the early stages of this enquiry. i think that is part of it, as well. we will start to get more detail, i think, as the days progress. no doubt you will keep us up—to—date. gavin lee, our europe correspondent in praia da luz. julian reichelt — editor—in—chief at bild 0nline — who's in berlin. good morning to you. it is worth saying on the outset that there are rules and generate governing the identification of the suspect, so we will stick to those with you. i wonder if you could tell us a little more about what you are reporters are discovering in terms of what you know about this man. well, our reporters have had a chance yesterday to take a look at his file and criminal record and this is one

of the most astonishing criminal records for such relatively young man that i have seen in my career as a journalist. his criminal career goes back all the way to his youth, with the first child abuse offence and conviction in 1994, so in his teen years, basically. it went on from there with pretty much everything you would find in a law code, there is hardly a law he has not broken. there were offences of drug production, selling drugs, driving under the influence, driving without a licence, stealing, theft. all of that in there. and obviously it seems german investigators seem very confident they are close to solving this but there is also another rape charge or conviction that he is serving time in prison

for now, which apparently also happened in portugal and, ironically, he may have, from what we have learned in the past hours, he has taped that crime and then became the victim of burglars. burglars found the tape and turned it into the police and that is how they got on him for the separate case of rape, where he was convicted for raping an elderly woman. when we look at his biography, his history, he has done nothing else pretty much in his life... if! he has done nothing else pretty much in his life... if i may, he has done nothing else pretty much in his life... if! may, a question a lot of people are asking. i'm sure you have asked, as well. given that we know there were links to the region on the praia da luz, in that particular area at that time, it seems extraordinary that this man is only being investigated now. do you have any clue as to why that has

happened? that really it will be the huge question for the weeks to come. from what we have learned police have investigated, looked at him in 2008. then somehow dropped him and considered him irrelevant to the case. and then picked up on him again in 2018 and we have learned in the past hours that there is a very similar missing child case in germany. a girl that shockingly looks similar to madeleine, was pretty much the same age when she disappeared and from what we have learnt now, he was in the area and owned a piece of land in the area and had been on the pace of land when the other german girl disappeared. police have searched that piece of land back in 2016. they found a usb stick that held child pornography and somehow they dropped it anyway was that there we re dropped it anyway was that there were so many leads pointing to

christian b and still those leads we re christian b and still those leads were not followed. those leads were dropped over and over again. not only in that madeleine mccann case but also in other cases, the one of the german missing child. there will be lots of questions to answer and the only one anyone can explain it is that they were so many different police entities, authorities involved and the exchange of data that was apparently nonexistent, that was apparently nonexistent, that he was able to evade prosecution for so many years. ok, thank you very much. julian is from bild 0nline, speaking to us from berlin. we can speak now to rob gladstone, the vicar of rothley parish church — which has been supporting madeleine's family over the years. thank you so much for taking the time to talk to us this morning. tell us how you have been supporting the family over the years. we are very much, as the local church, have

wa nted very much, as the local church, have wanted to gather together to pray for madeleine and the family but also at the family's request to pray for all missing children and so on the anniversary of madeleine's abduction each year, a whole number of people gathered from the community for a little service together to pray and that is a once a year thing but throughout the year, many within the local churches pray for madeleine and the family. you obviously can't speak for the family, even though you are very familiar with the family, but you can, isuppose, familiar with the family, but you can, i suppose, say familiar with the family, but you can, isuppose, say how familiar with the family, but you can, i suppose, say how you feel about this latest development. of course, from what we have just heard, there are shocking things been revealed about this chap in germany, but we must not forget there is a family at the heart of this and it must be incredibly unsettling and distressing for them. they are both key workers working in the national health service on the front line, helping to save lives at the moment. and really, ithink

front line, helping to save lives at the moment. and really, i think our most important thing we can be doing is praying for them, supporting them. because we trust in the lord jesus christ and he knows what it is to suffer so badly and we pray very much that they continue to know him and walk in hope and faith with him. i know you have been close and helped the family a lot over the yea rs. helped the family a lot over the years. how have they coped? well, i think it would be wrong for me to speculate and speak for them. they have put out various announcements help they are coping and feeling and so on. but i think it doesn't take rocket science to realise what a difficult time this has been for them over the years and why it is so important we continue to support them in our prayers. thank you very much for your time with us this morning on breakfast. thank you. 8:26am. now let's get the weather with sarah.

you have news of... i don't know. this morning as we came in there was a lot of rain. is that elsewhere? there is a rainbow! we can take that. we can take that. the recipe for rainbows. some really heavy showers around, bit of sunshine in between heavy showers. but what you will notice is the wind will pick up. some quite squally and gusty winds around those showers. this picture comes from north ayrshire this morning but many of us will see scenes like this through today. a glimpse of the blue sky, heavy downpours, and that is the story over the next couple of days. cool, showery and certainly turning windier particularly tomorrow. that is all down to the fact that high pressure that was here at the beginning of the week has a to, low pressure firmly in charge. lots of isobars and the showers are rotating around the area of low pressure. a brisk north—westerly wind, nowhere immune to catching a shower but they will be heaviest and most frequent possibly across east and north—east

england, a few of the showers further south so if you are hoping for rain, not too much around today. the winds will cost around 35 to 45 mph widely, even 50, possibly 60 mph across the forehead north west of scotland and through the irish seacoast. also more persistent rain heading across the north of scotland later through today. temperatures only about nine to 13 degrees, below par, especially when you add on the stream winds and showers. the odd rumble of thunder into the evening hours but most of those heavy showers fade for a time before the next batch of rain works its way across northern ireland, north wales, into northern england. some clearer skies either side of that area of rain, so quite a chilly night with temperatures widely down in single figures first thing saturday morning. this area of low pressure still very much with us on saturday and you can see the real squeeze on the isobars, particularly for northern and western scotland, northern ireland, into wales. through today and tomorrow, be prepared for some gales at times. gusts of wind possibly up to about

60 mph, especially across the northern half of the uk but blustery wherever you are. through saturday, bit of sunshine between the showers but most showers will work their way north to south through the day. heaviest through parts of the midlands and eastern england and temperatures mid—teens for most, could see 19 or so towards the west of scotland in any sunny spells. into some day, still some rain and mainly across eastern parts of england. further west, less mainly across eastern parts of england. furtherwest, less likely to catch the showers. less windy by the time we get to sunday. temperatures are still below par, especially around the east coast with the northerly breeze coming in. temperatures up to around 18 or 19 degrees for the one is to spots and as we look through next week, still as we look through next week, still a few showers but generally dry it with lighter winds. thank you very much. it is coming up to 8:30am. you are watching brackets. for the past few months our train and bus stations have been very quiet, but as more people are expected to return to school

and work in the coming weeks — new guidence will have to be followed. from june the 15th, people in england will have to wear face coverings when using public transport. but how will these new measures be enforced ? we're joined now by graham vidler from the confederation of passenger transport, along with robert nisbet from the rail delivery group. good morning to you both. graham, lets start with you. you represent the bus and coach sector. hearing this news about face masks, are you encouraged, perhaps, that people might feel it is more safe to travel by bus and coach? because numbers have been down. good morning. yes, i think yesterday's announcement is a sensible boost to the existing safety measures that bus operators have put in place. we have done things like enhance our cleaning protocols, a variety of techniques to help passengers keep social distance on board and while queueing, putting on extra buses

where necessary. this new requirement to wear a face covering while travelling, i think, will give passengers even more confidence that it is absolutely safe to travel by bus. what will travel on buses and coaches look like in terms of where you sit, in terms of capacity, how many would be on to usual numbers? so, the guidance we are going to passengers on both and coaches is to keep social distance by keeping a seat empty next to you, keeping a row of seats empty in front of and behind you. that is unless you are travelling with another member of your household. in practice, what that means is the capacity of a vehicle is down to about 20% or 25%. a double—decker bus that would normally take 80 people, it would ta ke normally take 80 people, it would take about 20 people at the moment. robert nisbet, you are director of the nations and regions rail delivery group. pick up on the preparedness issue. this is only a

few days away, the 15th ofjune. art train service is going to be ready in that short space of time? clearly, the policy was announced yesterday and there was a lot of work now to look at the detail of this. that is going to involve the british transport police, rail industries, the government, we need to sit around the table and work out how to implement this. as graham said, this is very similar in the rail industry, we already have a numberof rail industry, we already have a number of measures to make travelling as safe as possible. this isjust an travelling as safe as possible. this is just an extra layer, travelling as safe as possible. this isjust an extra layer, i think, of reassurance to people who may be nervous about getting back onto a train. but, of course, we would reiterate the guidance that we have been given to people, which is to only use public transport if you have no other option at the moment and leave that limited capacity that graham was talking about for the people that really need it, like key

workers. grant shapps, transport secretary, he didn't seem to have any question marks over how it would be implement it. he seemed to think, i've decided it is going to happen and that is it. are you saying train companies had no input prior to the decision? no, we have been having ple nty of decision? no, we have been having plenty of discussions with government, as you would imagine. we've been making the case for some time that we wanted stronger language on face coverings. because we have seen the impact it has had on the continent. in germany, for example. because social distancing and public transport are not easy bedfellows. it's an obvious statement, but where we are telling people to keep that two metre distance apart, there are certain pinch points in the system, notjust on trains themselves but at interchanges, where that isn't possible. any extra level of protection is obviously one that we would support. but how it is prevented, how we communicate that information to our staff, the support we get from british transport police, we will put that

into place now the policy is in place. you made the point you haven't had much time to think this through. but can i put a scenario to you? people will be thinking about the reality or practicality straightaway. you are on a train on the person next to you was wearing a mask, takes it off. you are on a two hour train journey. what happens next? first, we think that most people are going to play ball with this. no, clearly, those who do is not a problem, what you have to think through is, what happens next if there is a problem? well, as we understand it, and what the secretary of state has said is that this would be a change to the conditions of travel. that pretty much as a contract between the passenger and the train operator. it would be the same as if someone were travelling without a ticket, without a valid ticket for that particular service. clearly, the rail staff will be giving advice and will be helping to implement this with the

support of the british transport police. i don't want to get into hypotheticals, but this is clearly something we have to work out over the next few days that we can safely implement. sorry to interrupt, i wa nt to implement. sorry to interrupt, i want to ask the same question to graham. would rail staff then tell that passage that wasn't wearing a mask to leave the train? because thatis mask to leave the train? because that is what happens when you don't have a valid ticket. sorry, was that it graham or me? to you, because i am going to ask the same question to graham ina am going to ask the same question to graham in a moment. i don't want to get into hypothetical scenarios but, yes. if we are talking about the conditions of travel having been updated, yes, it would be the same as someone travelling without a ticket that was valid for that journey, with the support of the transport police. graham, how does it work on the buses? i will take the question charlie asked. a passenger gets on, we have heard a lot about the pressure that drivers are under, whether or not they feel

safe with this. perhaps there are some reassurance there, passengers are now wearing masks. it is compulsory. a passenger gets on the bus, one decides to take their mask off on bus, one decides to take their mask offona bus, one decides to take their mask off on a two hourjourney, what happens? whose responsibility is it to make sure the person wears the mask or gets off the bus? well, like robert says, we need to work with the government on the detail of the limitation of the policy over the next ten days. like robert, i also expect the vast majority of passengers will comply with this policy willingly. drivers and other bus staff will help them in making the right decision about wearing face coverings, but we'll need to work very closely with government and unions to understand what the role of the driver is. as you say, the driver already has a difficult jobs. we've taken a lot of steps to make sure drivers are protected behind safety screens, and we don't wa nt behind safety screens, and we don't want drivers having to come out to

police disputes on buses and putting themselves at greater risk of infection. ok, good to talk to both of you. thanks very much. good to see how your plans take shape ahead ofjune the see how your plans take shape ahead of june the 15th. lets say hello to mike. the latest sport to map out its return is rugby union — the sport with the most physical contact, but the english premiership has announced its targetting saturday 15th august, for its resumption. the date was agreed following the decision to allow clubs to resume the first stage of training. the league says nothing will happen until it is safe, but it is important to give clubs clarity about when the season could resume. exeter were five points clear at the top of the table, when the season was suspended, with each club still to play nine more games, when and if the season resumes. sports stars continue to speak out

after the death of george floyd, and the four—time 0lympic champion, michaeljohnson, believes history needs to be taught differently. you can't empathise with something you don't even understand, you know? if it appears that we all ended up here, we are all equal and started in the same place, then you don't understand. talking about airbrushing history, i'm not trying to hear this whole thing about airbrushing history because of a statue of a confederate soldier, general lee in the south, we are airbrushing history every day, and people argue feverishly about not including those things in our history books. for the first time this century, test cricket will be back on the bbc, with highlights of every test and one day internationals this summer. not since the ‘905 has the bbc had rights to show anything of england's test matches.

this was dominic cork getting a hat—trick against the west indies, who are this summer's first opponents. the highlights of all three tests and one day internationals will be on bbc two. the hope is that it might attract younger audiences, and who knows, it might even attract the attention of the googleboxers. celebrity gogglebox returns to our screens tonight, and as usual some famous faces will be casting their eyes over the weird and wonderful of television. social media star and rapper ksi — also known as jj 0latunji — will be joined in front of his tv by his friend, the music producer sam gumbley, or s—x. we'll speak to them in a minute, but first let's take a look. i love them so much, man. look at their little smiles. they're the 0gs of tv, bro. they're just like little cuddly... they haven't changed, bro, since we were kids, do you know? yeah, yeah, they've just been doing the same thing. how old do you think they are? 40. higher!

a little snippet of what you might see. ks! and s—onin us now. good morning. how are you doing? what should viewers, big fans of gogglebox, expect from celebrity gogglebox? well, you'rejust going to enjoy it. it's quite funny, because it's quite similar to what i do on my channel anyway. i do a lot of reaction videos on my second channel. it's just similar to that, and me and sam had a lot of fun with it. s-x, have you seen much of gogglebox before going on it? my mum got me to start watching it when we found out we were going on it. i had seen bits of it, but to be honest with you, no, but then i became a fan. the joy of gogglebox as you have your favourite families, and you kind of see why you become

almost obsessed with what they are going to say, because they say similar things. did you have a persona you thought you were going to put across when you went on gogglebox? for me? no. iwasjust kind of myself. you know, ijust reacted how i would normally react. ijust had reacted how i would normally react. i just had fun reacted how i would normally react. ijust had fun with it. there's actually a really cool experience, i think it's one of the best tv experiences i've ever had. it was just so relaxed and easy. it was literally just just so relaxed and easy. it was literallyjust me chilling with my mate, just watching some funny things on tv. yeah. s-x, just explain that to us. i think in a way you know you are being watched while you know you are being watched while you are watching something else. everyone knows that is the gist of the programme. it is there a better view that second guesses your comments, or can you, ask asi was saying, just completely relax? were you able to do that or did it take a while? you kind of know the cameras

are on you, but when it settles a new kind of forget they are there and you really do just be yourself, naturally. the reactions are real. you will see me and ks! very different, funny humour. it's good. you're going to enjoy it. one of the other things people are fascinated with, gogglebox generally, notjust generally, they like seeing people's living rooms, the places that they watch tv in. the sofa, the chair, often people have favourite shares ora often people have favourite shares or a certain position. ksi, do you have a tv watching place? i assume it is not where you are now. do you have a place where you watch tv?” have a place where you watch tv?” have a place where you watch tv?” have a living room, where ijust sit and watch tv. i was hoping for a bit more, really. a bit more of a description! laughter

we see you sitting on the sofa together, is there a routine? you are sitting down to a film, a certain programme, a soap opera or whatever. some people have rituals, a cup of tea, popcorn, biscuits. i knew you would like a biscuit. what about you, s—x, what is the ritual? a for me, i like everything, i am a thick boy, i've got biscuits, crisps, all of the snacks going. i think that's what we did, right? we had it all going? we just ate, we drank, we chilled. it was very standard. i had some chocolate, we had some crisps. it was a very normal, casual thing. had some crisps. it was a very normal, casualthing. sorry, i'm interrupting, i don't know how this thing works, ksi, you are asked to watch things you might not normally

watch? what are you normally don't wa nt watch? what are you normally don't want tv? and where you asked see things that you weren't really across? normally, i'm into anime, also sports, i'm also intojust watching youtube videos etc. i was there watching something, a lot of tv that i wouldn't normally watch. but i was thoroughly entertained. i think there was one called the favourite, it won many 05cars. and i didn't expect to enjoy it. i thought, it's an old—fashioned movie, it's set in victorian times or something around them. and i thought, this is going to be boring. and then i started watching it, and we so started enjoying it! with certain things happening. yeah! it was actually just really entertaining as well. yeah, we loved it. i think it's a great film, i'm glad you liked it, i would have

recommended it. s—x, what surprised you that you were told to watch and you that you were told to watch and you might have thought, oh, really? a show called paramedic, we were laughing at the name at first. what's it called? ambulance, that's it. we just thought, what's it called? ambulance, that's it. wejust thought, 0k, what's it called? ambulance, that's it. wejust thought, ok, this what's it called? ambulance, that's it. we just thought, ok, this is weird. and then it really caught was at the heartstrings. there was a scene, and it was a really good experience to watch. what michael weir talking to a lot of people about lockdown. how is that going, ksi, how is it for you? it's been cool ksi, how is it for you? it's been cool, i've just been ksi, how is it for you? it's been cool, i'vejust been keeping ksi, how is it for you? it's been cool, i've just been keeping fit, trying to run around 40 kilometres every week. i've been trying to eat well, playing games with the boys, you know, war zone, i've been working on music, watching youtube videos, i've been very active! i don't know, for me, i always have to keep going. i can't everjust stop.

0bviously keep going. i can't everjust stop. obviously i have my lowdown times, when i talk to my friends and family, but besides that, i'm always just working. is interesting, hearing ksi, we have met him before, he's got this very upbeat attitude to things, but a lot of people are saying there are times when it's not so good, for all sorts of reasons? yeah, i mean, life is real, you know? and that's about as real as you can say. especially as a creative person, there's times when you can kind of get in your head. for me, the lockdown was quite a blessing in disguise, because i was able to really stay in my house, i like to be outside, go for late night drives. this time round, i've been indoors, just working on my album. and i canjust focus on that. it's been pretty straightforward, to be honest. is interesting, we started off talking about something very buoyant, and we have spoken

about lockdown, we can't avoid the main story today, we are taking a look at the impact that the death of george floyd has had. i know you are both aware of this, and in your social media channels you will have seen your followers, your fans, reacting to this. i'd be really keen to just reacting to this. i'd be really keen tojust get your reacting to this. i'd be really keen to just get your reaction to how you think the world is looking at this issue right now? ksi, if we start with you? for me, i think racism isn't just with you? for me, i think racism isn'tjust happening with you? for me, i think racism isn't just happening in with you? for me, i think racism isn'tjust happening in america, it's also happening right here in the uk. you know, like every black person on this earth, i'm just exhausted, really. i'vejoined the protests in london, i got to see john boyega speaking for us, it was a monument moment, seeing that passion. and ifelt it. it's real, it's true. you know, i've donated thousands to black lives matter

organisations, i've pushed a narrative on my youtube videos, i've posted on instagram, really raising as much awareness as i can. posted on instagram, really raising as much awareness as i can. the list goes on. what we really need right now as everyone to just stand with us. that's really it, you know? both of you, everyone in the studio, and eve ryo ne of you, everyone in the studio, and everyone watching, to really vocally support us on stand with us. you know, educate yourselves, do your research, sign petitions, join the marches. be vocal in your support. 0k, as you are talking... marches. be vocal in your support. ok, as you are talking... don't be racist! i was just ok, as you are talking... don't be racist! i wasjust going to say, s-x, racist! i wasjust going to say, s—x, you are nodding along as ksi is talking. for you, what is your reaction? a i'mjust talking. for you, what is your reaction? a i'm just going to go on with what jj reaction? a i'm just going to go on

with whatjj said, when reaction? a i'm just going to go on with what jj said, when we reaction? a i'm just going to go on with whatjj said, when we say reaction? a i'm just going to go on with what jj said, when we say stand with what jj said, when we say stand with us, people say, how can i do that? there are black history books, ways that you can open your mind and educate yourself. there is a reason why this is happening, notjust in america but across the world. it's something that needs to change now. there are a lot of people saying all lives matter, but in order for that to happen, black lives need to matter as well, that is clearly not happening. so it's a serious thing. we need everybody on board to stand with us and to make the change. sign the petitions, open up your mind, if you are unaware of what is going on, dojust that, you know? s-x, thanks for your thoughts. ksi as well. good to catch up with you. it looks like a lot of fun you had on the sofa for gogglebox. that's nice. i was going to say go easy on the biscuits, but go for the biscuits. that's what i say. enjoy the biscuits, and the crisps. i like your plans. celebrity gogglebox starts tonight

at 9pm on channel 4. it is one of the biggest winners of the global pandemic, and when lockdown hit, zoom went from an obscure video conferencing service to a household staple almost overnight. do you feel with the name that you need to kind of go, zoooom! not really, but feel free... this week the company reported nearly 300—million participants a day were taking part in its conference calls at the peak of the lockdown. jayne mccubbin looks at the highs and lows, of a service hardly anyone knew the name ofjust a few months ago. zoom, it's everywhere. 0n the bbc... we are really well—positioned to control crowds, to maintain social distancing. well, we have lost scott parson for the time being. ..in the house of commons... in the good news of this, great community spirit...

bleep please, carry on. technology no—one had heard of few months ago but in lockdown we were living our best or worst zoom life. let's cross over to the dreamy spires of oxford university where a high level meeting of academics is taking place via video conference call, including sara. i was having a zoom with a whole group of people on the screen and in the next minute i could see rich behind me and then he ducked down. rich is the husband, unaware the camera can see him. then he crawled across the floor and then handed this note that said, "do you want a drink?". this is in a group chat with oxford academia, the elite. hello, how are you? how is the dating by zoom game going? no, i have given it up. this isjohn, we have met before, back when we sampled a bit of zoom virtual dating together. it's not for me. what can you talk about,

you are not doing anything? it is the same old conversation all the time. it just fizzles out. you check in with each other, it is like, i am watching some tv, again, just like the last night and probably the last five nights you have asked me. what can you do? i can't go out anywhere. hello. introduce yourself. i'm roifield brown of the dumteedum podcast and i believe you're calling me about my social media zoom faux pas. oh, you bet we are. let me take you back. roifield had invited a select group of arches uberfans on to a zoom chat to meet one of the cast and then... at first, the first 30 seconds it went really well, all of a sudden i heard this kind of eastern european techno and i did not know what the hell was going on.

what happened is not appropriate for a breakfast audience but it involved a security breach now known as a zoombomb. i have never slapped down the lid of my laptop so fast. i'm not going to lie to you, i was angry as hell but it was a baptism of fire. it sounds like it. an utter baptism of fire. it can be carnage but, for family and friends like this, and this, and this, purejoy. all hail the zoom quiz. hello, zoom quizzers. which thousands of you are sorting out every weekend. should we start and take a moment to celebrate the beauty of your vegetable self—portraits. we started with quite conventional zoom quizzes, what are the seven wonders of the world, what is the capital of morocco, as time went on we got more and more creative and peaked at the quiz last week when we were making

vegetable self— portraits. i think it provided with the best laguh so far. what's new is the number of people getting involved in videocalling. i don't know for other people but my grandmother i now video call with which i never thought would happen. it is really nice to have that connection. last question, who won the vegetable—based self—portrait competition? that was me. i did win with a potato carving. that's one hour of my life i'm not getting back. i think altogether, let'sjoin in, a round of applause for david. final round of applause. and round of applause for the technology which is keeping us connected, when it works. jayne mccubbin, bbc news. we are going to talk about a new

comedy. it is delving in the world of secret second families. "the other one" follows two women — both called catherine walcott — who are sisters, but have no idea of each other‘s existence until theirfather dies. we're nowjoined by rebecca front, who plays colin's widow in the series, and by the writer holly walsh. give us a sense of the plot, a life in one place and suddenly changes? two sisters who didn't know each other existed until their dad suddenly dies. so, they had no idea that there was another family, he was father to another child and they are basically the same age. he calls them both catherine. so, if anyone ever stopped him in the street and says, how is catherine, he could just answer without even blinking. it sort of covered his secret a bit more. as is often the case, you start with a trauma, a family in

mourning, and then from that comes quite a bit of comedy? yeah, well, we kind of kill off the two timing dad very early on in the show. and then it's all about how everyone else deals with it. all of the two women, the others of his children, and his two daughters, the two catherines. that's how that happens. it is important at times like this, during lockdown, we are all on skype, zoom or whatever, we need to laugh. we've been talking a lot about the arts, and the importance of making sure there is something fresh and new for people? absolutely. and we are in this weird, restricted bubble at the moment. clearly, the other one is a show that was shot before lockdown happened, but i think we have it in everybody's interests to find stuff to laugh at while lockdown is going

on and support the arts. i think it has made us appreciate how important television, media and theatre are. are you keeping busy, rebecca? so many people have had projects cancelled or postponed indefinitely. i've definitely had a big project postponed, but hopefully not indefinitely. i've been able to work from home because i do a lot of voice—overs, so i've been able to do some work from home. all television has been suspended for the time being. but hopefully not for too much longer. holly, i know you drew inspiration from the other much longer. holly, i know you drew inspiration from the other one from an actual story you heard, because somebody did this. what is inspiring you during lockdown? we are writing a new series of motherland, and that has kept me pretty busy. it's been really nice, just having a reason to logon, we do it over group chat, zoom, there are former writers and it is like having a friendship group every day. it has saved me from being quite lonely, sitting alone in

the room, trying to write. i'm so lucky to have a job and be working. sol lucky to have a job and be working. so i can't complain. but we've just been making each other laugh over zoom the whole time. so far, i've had quite a fun working life during lockdown. that's good to hear. rebecca, we get a little bit off and out of looking around people's houses when we catch up with them. you are delivering nothing on that front. what is that? come on! where is the bookcase with some books we canjudge you is the bookcase with some books we can judge you with. what is going on? it is completely intentional! i don't like anybody knowing anything about me. even my sofa is not actually this colour, it is hidden, lam actually this colour, it is hidden, i am completely paranoid, i don't wa nt i am completely paranoid, i don't want people looking inside my house and thinking, she likes that, does she? a wise thing. holly, what did you say? you have painted the corner of one of your beautiful floral

rooms white? i'm actually in a prison cell, thanks for drawing everybody's attention to it. the other one is on bbc 0ne tonight at 9pm. that's all from breakfast for today, but i'll be back withjon tomorrow from six. goodbye!
