terms of, we could be too early in terms of, we could be too early in terms of, we could potentially experience a resurgence or asjohn was saying a second wave of this virus? definitely in the uk. some of the things we are seeing, and of the economy has to keep on going but i've seen huge queues for nonessential shops and i know people are trying hard to social distance but you can see the hundreds and hundreds of people are starting to mix together again. it's only natural to have concerns about a potential second wave of this pandemic. certainly the focus when it comes to the japan times. the election campaign taking place there. this fear of a second wave of coronavirus. election shining a spotlight on two topics. those countermeasures to stop infections and also the olympics that had to be supposed —— postponed.

and also the olympics that had to be supposed -- postponed. the governor of tokyo, the first female governor ina fairly of tokyo, the first female governor in a fairly strong position because they have done reasonably well there. that the question of the olympics in 17 candidates and the election injuly, 17 candidates running instantly want they'll be expanded, suspended in the money spent on helping the economy re cove red. spent on helping the economy recovered. and who can blame them? who would contemplate running in olympic events in a time like this? it's near impossible i would have thought stop and you put a lot of pressure on the athletes competing. there is an insurgency of when they are going to train and take part. of course training schedules are very fine tuned and athletes will be on various cycles. for some years it's

a four years of lytic cycle and that mightjust not a four years of lytic cycle and that might just not work for the a four years of lytic cycle and that mightjust not work for the training programme. very difficult for them but i wanted to see this story at some of the candidates for the governor of tokyo are saying it should just be cancelled altogether. i was just surprised because there's a huge prestige event generating a lot of money. i thought bursting into 2021 might seem most likely but some of these candidates are asking for to be called off altogether. o nto for to be called off altogether. onto the telegraph which has the images of sir winston churchill from the five past of the red arrows in the five past of the red arrows in the french equivalent. the story underneath is these ideas about how it's possible that we could potentially go on holiday. so many other issues when it comes to coronavirus but a lot of people eager to talk about summer holidays. and the idea is that air breaches

could be created. yes, and that's with countries favourable to the uk like france or spain and portugal. and one suspects that this initiatives his coming heart on the heels of one of criticism even from the tory of having to quarantine for 14 days after coming into the country. why on earth bringing a rule like that now? why not right at start? i'd be watching planes from new york, the epicentre of this outbreak flying over my house every day, chuck people getting into public transport in court all over the country. many of them completely unaware the restrictions. air breaches seem to be a common—sense solution, a halfway house if you like. the very popular with uk residents of course and perhaps save a few red faces and what is seen by many people to be a very late piece

of legislation depending quarantine for all people arriving here. of legislation depending quarantine for all people arriving harem seems within the government there's a bit of, not everybody is as enthusiastic. the telegraph saying dominic raab is less enthusiastic than the transport secretary. we've heard about this for a long time. the transport secretary and his air breaches idea is not across the board what the excepted or thought to bea board what the excepted or thought to be a particularly good idea. and i'm not sure who will win out on that one. dominic is a very influential number of cabinets, foreign secretary. i know some people thought the idea which is not work at all and thought it was a bit silly. but if you do any kind of polling, british people of their summer holidays abroad it would be a huge morale boost. it'sjust whether those other countries, do they want

british holiday—makers flocking to their beaches? are we going to be popular if we end up blocking these holidays? i do think a lot of this is about morale and economic choices being made by the government to keep the economy afloat basically. also i wonder if you notice can be a habit ofa wonder if you notice can be a habit of a discussion about to brexit. the mr macron and of a discussion about to brexit. the mrmacron and mr of a discussion about to brexit. the mr macron and mrjohnson discussing talks over the post brexit deal. the french president being told by mr johnson that does not make sense to have prelaunch negotiations into the autumn. something we have been hearing. and he has been staying there for quite a while now. to be quite frank with you the credibility of this government is not at its strongest to put it mildly. what is said one day is often a reverse of the next. borisjohnson does not wa nt the next. borisjohnson does not want these talks and would use the

opportunity today, as he said before put a tiger in the tank of these talks. bold enough to remember that phrase and its commercial use for a petrol company. i'm going to show my age because i do have recollections of that. the figures showing president macron and london for the historic broadcast by charles de gaulle. he is with prince charles, kate and typical rain, but this is quite a historic moment that present macron came to london for it.|j quite a historic moment that present macron came to london for it. i felt a little bit of politics as usual to have a president visiting the uk. it symbolically 80th anniversary of his call on the radio to france, but also the fact that he's meeting

johnson face—to—face. this is quite important at as we go into these a p pa re ntly important at as we go into these apparently ramped up brexit talks, this post for things to happen in july and not roll into the autumn i'm sure even if they had 45 minutes face—to—face shoe that was a very valuable discussion and something that he's not had in quite a long time. the metro dedicating the front page to a beautiful picture of dame vera lynn. a few people you have in interviews which you have a wonderful story of the time you spent with damon vera lynn, please do share it with us. yes a lovely lady. it is a series for a tv that was a sort of religious take of desert island spaces, people charged with your life and times are an hour or so and chose their favourite hymns to go with that. i went to her house, absolutely lovely lady. everything you heard about her absolutely true. charming lovely

lady full of wonderful anecdotes about her time as the forces sweetheart. going to burma and talking to the troops. went to burma because they gotten entertainment and so she went to burma and egypt, she slept on a stretcher balanced on two chairs one day. lovely lady. i really very modest lady. don't forget this was an iconic figure who boosted the morale of this country. we could do with someone like her right now. and the queen used we will meet again in that speech were she tried to boost the comments. greenhills far—away was one of her favourites, because there was a green hill near her house and got to play her face and torture herself about her faith. i was privileged to be there. i thought i'd been close to greatness. a lovely lady and not

lady brought up in the east end of london put on the stage by her mother, told by her tutor that she would never make it and she defied to the mall and became one of our greatest ever ever ladies. in extreme loss. a beautiful story and thank you for sharing those memories. it's with her majesty the queen quotes, repeats the words of damon vera lynn, to such a famous song that that goes to show the mood of the nation really needed to hear that. a beautiful tribute. i remember herfrom that. a beautiful tribute. i remember her from the celebrations, the 50th anniversary and remember that being a big deal in primary school. absolutely wonderful to see this lady as a young woman. what an amazing tribute from your words. we are going to see a lot of these

beautiful images of her. it's very, very moving. it's wonderful for people to know her story and how much she did inspire and rally the troops. but also how long lasting and fitting those words are. just so happy to see this lovely picture of her as a young woman because that's not however remember her, i remember her as not however remember her, i remember heras an not however remember her, i remember her as an older lady. is an absolutely stunning image and i'm sure some of the next pages that we will be getting, i'm sure we will see many more such images. thank you both so much for the time being, it was really lovely to see you both. we will be back in about half an hour past my time. we will see very soon. thanks to our guest and thank you forjoining us for the papers. we look forward to seeing you very shortly. the hashtag is bbc papers. i will see you very soon. bye—bye for now.

good evening. it's been a fine day for parts of scotland. plenty of sunshine. not too many showers through the day, at least in northern ireland. but for england and wales, it's been cool and cloudy and wet for many parts. and actually overnight into wednesday morning, over a month's worth of rain fell in the south and east. now, that has started to ease away and we've had a few thunderstorms following, but the rain has persisted for much of the day across southwestern parts of england, parts of wales. it's moving through the evening and overnight into northern ireland, scotland and northern england. so with all that cloud around, it is going to be quite a warm night again and quite a misty and murky one, with sea fog around in the east and some hill fog around in the west. and it's still with us tomorrow morning. so quite a grey start, with some mist and some fog to clear away, and then outbreaks of rain will work their way northwards. so the devil's in the detail, really, for friday, but it looks as if it won't be so wet across the southern half of the uk.

but we will not escape all of the showers. there will be some slow—moving downpours once again, but some warmth in the sunshine and still relatively light winds until later, when they start to freshen. it's more likely we'll see some heavier downpours across north wales, northern england, northern ireland and parts of scotland, so more rain that we've had
