public transport. when that doesn't happen it has implications for the economy. they have been lots of chatter over the last couple of days about this big campaign that was going to be launched, even some people suggesting that this whole threat was going to be held over the head of office workers if they didn't go back to work in there will face the sack and there was going to bea face the sack and there was going to be a public information campaign urging people to get back to work. the issue here has been the government owned guidelines in terms of social distancing which was reduced to one metre some time ago although we are actually nuance around that messaging is that to me this is still possible, it makes it difficult to get all your members of staff back to work and even the newspaper offices although we are very keen to go back to me can sometimes be difficult given the social distancing measures that aborted been introduced. and i think borisjohnson is very keen to see why he will eat on the front of this issue and has found that even that

issue and has found that even that is difficult. so very much this campaign that was due to start this week has been delayed and there is now concerned about what that impact will have on the economy. before the reasons i explained in terms of the impact on the city and the people spending power. what is shared reading of this? is the message confusing or are we to simply, the initial message of stay—at—home, are we adhering to that too much or too well? what is your reading?” we adhering to that too much or too well? what is your reading? i think there are two things going on. the first one is that a lot of people don't feel safe enough to go back to work. that has to do with partly the miscommunication from the government, they don't know what they are supposed to be doing or are allowed to do. and the other reason is people are still concerning the virus is not yet adequately under control for them to feel safe enough to go out. everything to a point made a while ago by the american economist unless you control the virus, there is no way of really consoling these economic problems. that has to be the number one issue.

then the other issue of our people going to go back to the normal going to work 95, monday to friday in office when the crisis is over. widespread acceptance now amongst many companies they will save money and boost productivity by allowing their workers to work from home a few days a week. for some reason, i don't exactly know why the government is not happy about this idea that people will not be working from home more. and the issue potentially around people not using the high street shops and those sorts of things when they go to offices. there are plenty of ways to deal with that and ultimately the government should be concerned about his productivity, which is been very low for many years now and this is potentially the way businesses think they might be able to boost that. let's turn away from coronavirus but we will stay with the paper some of the daily telegraph. a picture of harry and meghan markle. they have

removed themselves from the british royalfamily, but removed themselves from the british royal family, but they have signed now a deal with a netflix. what can we expect? they are following what obamas did, producing and documentary making wit netflix. we will see them for another camera? do we know much about the deal? there seems to be splitting up hanging at the moment as to whether or not they will indeed appear in front of the camera. there is suggested they will be involved in a documentary about their lives but in some ways this is their lives but in some ways this is the announcement we've been waiting for. ever since harry and megan announced they will go to the good become self—sufficient. a lot of question the marks how they would earn enough money and live in america when they were completely independent of taxpayer support over here. —— harry and meghan. we know meghan markle is an actress. she has strong winds in america with the entertainment industry. theyjust

had this big book which they claim the having cooperated with but has given a big high profile look at their lives. it was inevitable that something of this magnitude was in the ether in the course today we see the ether in the course today we see the announcement finally. they want to make television programmes that inspire young people, children's television programmes and documentaries we can certainly be expecting to see a lot more of meghan markle and harry in the future. another question is one of the things they will be looking at as new parents, they want to look at families or all of that, but i think we all want to know how much they are getting further disagrees. as we touch upon this, they have moved to the us and buy a rather expensive, very expensive new home, we don't know about how much this deal is worth. i think we can assume it will bea worth. i think we can assume it will be a lot. we can also assume that netflix is ultimately going to do better offer this. it is one of those tech stocks that same quite significant rallies over the last

couple of months. —— that has seen quite significant. watching tv from home more. i imagine netflix will probably be perfectly able to provide a large enough sum of money to tempt harry and meghan over what's up i think the question .. to tempt harry and meghan over what's up i think the question is to tempt harry and meghan over what's up i think the quest good for netflix. i it will deal for netflix. i imagine it will be. probably a lot of demand for the shows. so, yes, we will see force of good for them they managed to move from royalty to independency. we will wait and see. not much time. in a few sentences, the gulf news, foreigners can retire, resident, foreigners can retire, resident, foreigners can retire in dubai. this is about a global campaign which is now being launched to encourage foreigners to resign and retire and to the quality of life there. it

used to be spain that will have people retiring there. now dubai is inviting people to come and live there and this will all be about stimulating the economy and the coronavirus, no country has gone unscathed. everybody wants to attract. this is just unscathed. everybody wants to attract. this isjust the unscathed. everybody wants to attract. this is just the latest idea from those in dubai to do that. ina idea from those in dubai to do that. in a sentence, do you reckon this will take be picked up on, grace? this seems like it will be a growing trend over the next decade or so. it will be increased competition between states for wealthy individuals. we will see wealth inequality rise, no question. whether because of intervention by central banks are just the facts of the pandemic. states will try to compete for those individuals and hopefully they want to using regret of measures like taxation cuts. thank you both so much for the first edition. we will be back in under an

hour's time. join us for that as well. they can for washing. —— thank you for writing. good evening... british number two kyle edmund has come up short against the world number one and i7—times grand slam champion novak djokovic in the second round of the us open. edmund started well and produced an ace to take the first set on a tie break. djokovic though rediscovered his touch and took the next two sets 6—3 , 6—4. he broke edmund straightaway at the start of the fourth and duly wrapped the match. djokovic will face germany's jan—lenna rd struff in the third round. in the women's draw,

at a very difficult time. i think that was the problem with other cricketers notjust david capel but at that time when england were searching for another ian bothem, david was in that category. he was just a fine cricketer called david capel. there were a few like him in that same generation who look back on that time and think they had it quite difficult. finally stephen hendry is targetting the uk championship at york in novemberfor his return to the professional snooker tour. the seven time world champion retired eight years ago and is 51 now, but he's accepted a two year invitation to play on tour. earlier he told us about his decision. working as a pendant, when you're out of the arena, the crucible, i a lwa ys out of the arena, the crucible, i always wished that i had it in my hand. i'm jealous of the two players playing when i'm working. in the back of my mind i think i would be great to be back out there again doing this. i'm not saying i will be

in the world championships but if i get to walk down the stairs and things get back to normal and it is fa ct, things get back to normal and it is fact, to each side of the every in it and going back to whatever table you player, that would be an incredible feeling. and that's all the sport for now. good night. hello. it'll be a much milder start to this morning. why? we've more cloud. in fact, that cloud gave some heavy rain through the night, heavy, thundery rain. it's easing, but it's still with us as it pushes its way across england and wales. with it, a lot of misty low cloud shrouding the hills and the headlands in fog, so quite a grey start for many. it brightens for wales, the midlands, northern england, already across scotland and northern ireland, with showers, though, on a brisk wind pushing into the north and west, near gale force to the far north of scotland. temperatures on par with those that we saw yesterday, and still into the low 20s despite the cloud further south,

which will move away, allowing another cooler night as we move into friday morning. still showers, still a brisk wind in the north. as you can see, those temperatures dipping a little over. we will continue to see a brisk atlantic wind throwing in showers as we go through friday, into the weekend. some uncertainty on friday's rain. eventually, the high pressure is starting to ease those winds later in the weekend.
