‘ low moved off with that area of low pressure into scandinavia. we are starting to see this influence of this is bbc world news. high pressure, albeit briefly, as the headlines... the weather front comes in later, but it basically means today will be a final night out for some ahead of an announcement on new coronavirus a quieter story, a few scattered restrictions in england. showers running down the north sea there are last—minute meetings coast slightly, and a few scattered in government to iron out the details as local leaders warn showers across wales and south—west england. lighter winds from a more financial assistance is needed. northerly direction, so not a warm when the state says, "you may not go to work, source, temperatures may well struggle, but i suspect in sheltered you may not trade," then people areas where we see the best of the should be getting 100% compensation. sunshine we might see 15 or 16 degrees, noticeably cooler along the east coast. as we move out of sunday a warning from england's deputy chief medical officer that the country is at a tipping afternoon, we will start to see that cloud and rain gathering from the west, so western fringes of point in the fight against covid—19. scotland, northern ireland, seeing some wetter weather through the the white house doctor says president trump is no longer night. claudia weather ahead of it, a transmission risk to others, but we could see more across the but has not said whether he's tested negative for covid—19. east and south—east, temperatures here dipping down into low single rescuers search for survivors figures. a bright start, not for after a missile attack on azerbaijan's second—biggest city long, clouding over quite quickly, as a brief truce in the nagorno—kara bakh conflict shows the cloud and rain moves steadily

out of northern ireland and scotland signs of unravelling. down through northern england, and here it may well linger for much of the day, and if that does so, temperatures really could struggle, perhaps just a maximum temperatures really could struggle, perhapsjust a maximum of nine or 10 here's all the sport degrees. the rain not arriving into the london area until the end of the with holly hamilton. day, but a brighter story by the end it's another sequel in an already of the afternoon to scotland and gripping saga as novak djokovic northern ireland. now, that weather and rafa nadal clash in another front could lingerfor a northern ireland. now, that weather front could linger for a time on sunday. it sinks its way steadily grand slam final. south and east. the isobars swing ran toa south and east. the isobars swing ran to a north—easterly direction, so ran to a north—easterly direction, so the winds swinging around to a it's the french open title at stake here — a win for nadal would see him equal north—easterly, showery outbreaks of rain across england clearing at the roger federer‘s all—time men's record of 20. south—east corner, and the temperatures again still struggling, just a maximum on tuesday of 10—13, way down on where they should be in he is the defending champion but he the middle part of october. if you knows all too well what djokovic is wa nt the middle part of october. if you want something that little bit drier capable of. and more optimistic, wednesday into to play against novak, thursday, high pressure builds, i need to play my best. quieten things down, but still not 00:01:57,301 --> 4294966103:13:29,430 particularly one with it. take care. you know, without playing my best, then this situation is very difficult.

i know that is a court that i have been playing well for such a long time, so that helps. but at the same time, he has an amazing record here too, being in the final rounds almost every single time. so, he's one of the toughest opponents possible. to be close to the trophy, you know, in the last match of the tournament and playing against the biggest rival — it's the biggest obstacle and challenge that you can have. and this is what it comes down to. so i have been there. i have done it. i understand what needs to be done and how i need to prepare myself, so i'm looking forward to it. well, from djokovic's 17 grand slams to this woman's very first — what a moment for polish teenager iga swiatek, who beat australian open champion sophia kenin to claim the women's final yesterday. she's 19 years old, the the lowest—ranked woman

to win at roland garros in history. and she did so convincingly. she didn't drop a set during the entire tournament. apparentlyjust a week ago, she had beens unsure whether she would commit to tennis long—term or go to university. and britain's alfie hewett completed a perfect french open, claiming his fourth grand slam wheelchair singles title. he also won the doubles title on friday with gordon reid. lewis hamilton has another chance to equal michael schumacher‘s record of 91 formula one victories later today. he starts from second on the grid at the eifel grand prix. his mercedes team—mate valtteri bottas was quarter of a second quicker around germany's nurburgring, ending hamilton's run of five poles in a row. not all is not lost for hamilton as four of the last five winners at this circuit have started from second on the grid. i'm 0k. i don't really know what happened in 03. so in my mind, i'm curious as to what led us to lose a little bit of pace. but, you know, you don't

have to get them all, so i'm pretty chilled. britain's alex dowsett won stage 8 of the giro d'italia. the time—trial specialist broke away with 11 miles to go, and held on to win the stage by over a minute. he rides for the israel start—up nation team, who chris froome isjoining next year. portugal'sjoao almeida still leads overall. all four home countries are in nations league action today. the third round of fixtures. arguably, england have the toughest game against belgium. gareth southgate welcomes back tammy abraham and jadon sancho. they missed the win against wales after breaking covid—19 rules at a party last weekend. they've obviously missed a bit of training, so that's a bit of a concern in terms of their load through the week. but, no, it's done. you know, that situation is done. they are back with the group and we move forward. the backmarkers are out

for the final round of the the pga championship at wentworth, and they're all trying to chase down tyrrell hatton. he made an eagle and three birdies on his way to 1a under par for a three shot lead. actually, what he was wearing caused debate. his hoodie caused a bit of a controversy about golf‘s dress code, he's not worried though and knows what he has to do later. even if guys get off to a really hot start and i don't, there's so many opportunities out there if you play well, and ijust have to allow myself to give myself opportunities to do that, so just have to stay in the moment and see how it plays out. here's another englishman rather pleased with his efforts — it's jordan smith. he got a hole in one from 139 yards on the par—three second hole. it took him a while before

he realised, though. he even had to ask the question, did it actually go in? yes, it did. that is all of the sport for now. now on bbc news, here is ben with that papers. hello and welcome to our look ahead to the morning's papers. with me are katherine forster, journalist for the sunday times, and ben chu, economics editor at the independent. thank you very much for being with us. the observer says that northern voters have been betrayed by the prime minister, over the financial support being offered to locked down areas. the sunday express has more on the backlash — saying that northern mayors are planning legal action.

boris johnson is compared to margaret thatcher in the sunday people, because of how areas in the north are being treated. the sunday mirror highlights infection rates in the constituencies of tory ministers, where local lockdowns haven't been introduced. the sunday telegraph says pubs will close in hotspots, but restaurants are set to remain open. meanwhile, the sunday times is reporting that local authorities will be given more control over the test and trace system. and the mail on sunday has a story accusing the health secretary, matt hancock, of making what's described as a crass joke about test and trace failings, in a house of commons bar. let's kick off with ben. why don't you start off? the sunday telegraph have got everybody on tenterhooks about what exactly is going to be announced tomorrow in terms of restrictions. the sunday telegraph story is that millions will be

ordered not to leave local areas? this will feel like a return to lockdown for many people who are being hit with what is called these cheer three restrictions, so that is talking about nonessential shops closing again, beauty parlours, leisure facilities. it is talking about people not being allowed to travel unless it is for essential purposes. schools are being allowed to stay open, but like i said, for many it will be likely lockdown in march and april. the big question is for those businesses who are going to be very, very hard hit by that, while they only get in, according to the chancellor last week, two thirds of their salaries of their employees rather than the 80% that they were getting in the full lockdown? is it really that different? what is the justification for that? the implication of these businesses for the return to these restrictions would be just as great in many cases as it was back then. that is the question that the government needs to ask and they also need to give a

broader sense of what the strategy is. is itjust a wait for the vaccine to come along? is it to get people to go at spending in areas of the country where they are not being hit by these restrictions? these are questions that have not been a nswered questions that have not been answered yet, and we need to hear the answers this week. going in on this question of local leaders asking for more control, a bigger slice of the say in the decision—making process, tone holes to ta ke decision—making process, tone holes to take control on decision—making is the headline? —— town halls. to take control on decision—making is the headline? —— town hallslj think is the headline? —— town halls.|j think many local leaders are absolutely infuriated. don't forget that some of these areas have been under restrictions for many weeks. infections haven't necessarily been falling and instructions have come from central government. so now they

are saying that we are going to work with you, local leaders, they are going to give them more power. there is talk about teams of volunteers being set up which would go and knock on people's doors that have been identified as needing to isolate, work with the local community and hopefully get much more local community service to my. i think that is a positive because obviously you want —— buy—in. a lot of people in these areas, unfortunate for these areas and also for the government,... unfortunate for these areas and also for the government, . .. the government wants to keep them onside and they feel they are being hammered, basically. let us go to the mail on sunday. they have got this story about the health

secretary making a tasteless coronavirus joke when he was drinking too late in the house of commons bar, they allege. it is not clear when he stopped drinking. i think he didn't deny that he ordered a drink at 20 to ten in the commons bar. he said he then went off to vote. 0thers bar. he said he then went off to vote. others are saying he came back. it is all a bit mysterious at the moment. the tastelessjoke, a p pa re ntly the moment. the tastelessjoke, apparently he said at the drinks are on nearby public of england is inside of the payment methodology, soi inside of the payment methodology, so i won't be paying anything. 0bviously so i won't be paying anything. obviously in reference to those missing test results from last week. whether it is tasteless or not, i am not sure, but it is not particularly funny, and i don't think the british public will find amusing all the other thing is that the government has messed up in the last couple of weeks, from the testing, to the

a—levels to the handling of the dominic cummings business. also, the house of commons bar times, that didn't go down well with the public, either. something else that might leave a bitter taste in the mouth of the public, katherine, is margaret ferrier, the snp mep who travelled after testing positive with coronavirus. she has done an interview with the scotland son on sunday. i have to say, this makes me completely furious and i am sure many other people will feel similarly. she has given an interview to the scottish sun basically saying, i had a tickly throat so i thought i had better get a test. then i felt fine, so i went to london. clearly, she had taken a test, it was possible. she went to

london because you can only take pa rt london because you can only take part in the debate in person. she got the result, she was astonished that she was positive, and then she panicked. she doesn't have a flat in london and didn't want to be in a hotel, so she got on a train. she saidi hotel, so she got on a train. she said i wore my mask the whole way. i am sorry, this isjust absolutely appalling. i think it is totally inexcusable. the snp have withdrawn the whip from her, she has been suspended from the party. but she is still an suspended from the party. but she is stillan mp on suspended from the party. but she is still an mp on 81,000 a year saying, i made a mistake. ithink still an mp on 81,000 a year saying, i made a mistake. i think that is not good enough. it is absolutely indefensible. if this is the sort of people from people in power, if you are in that sort of position, you have to be held to the highest standard. she has failed to do that. they expect everybody to abide by the rules and play to the letter of the rules and play to the letter of the law, and something like this i think isjust the law, and something like this i think is just disgraceful. the law, and something like this i think isjust disgraceful. let us go to donald trump, a big picture in the sunday times taking off his

mask. and also interesting story that they have, and angle which is that they have, and angle which is that number ten is dumping trump and wooing joe biden because they are convinced he is going to win at the election. apparently private polling seen election. apparently private polling seen by number ten says that biden has an 85% chance of winning which is the reason, as you said, the paper is reporting that they are giving up on trump and trying to woo joe biden's people. it is funny, these computer models and private polling showed exactly the same as what all of the public polling data is showing, that biden is the overwhelming favourite to win next month. so they are not getting anything that we are not getting. but, of course, how much store do you put by polls when they were so wrong for years ago when champ unexpectedly beat hillary clinton bismarck i think you would be wise not to take them at face value ——

trump beat hillary clinton. does bring significant problems because of their stunt about northern ireland and the brexit, with the internal market spell which is seen by many as threatening the good friday agreement. the democrats are massively unimpressed by that, and biden himself tweeted that he would not allow any us, uk trade deal to go through if itjeopardised the good friday peace agreement. it is not surprising that number ten is slightly worried about the chance of a biden presidency. perhaps he is 20 smooth things over behind—the—scenes as we speak. in the telegraph, paris to protect statues. statues have been the source of so much controversy this year in the wake of black lives matter. the telegraph is reporting that they are going to

give robertjenrick, reporting that they are going to give robert jenrick, the reporting that they are going to give robertjenrick, the housing secretary, to veto appalachians from local councils to have statues and memorial pipes removed —— veto plans from local councils. this is the government venturing into the culture war, i suppose. they have made noises about this previously but they are actively going to intervene now. it will be with the housing secretary. i think that is interesting and, obviously, the culture secretary has also separately written to museums, galleries, etc, that get public money saying that they are going to risk their funding money saying that they are going to risk theirfunding and money saying that they are going to risk their funding and disappearing is they start removing artefacts. i think this is an area where the conservatives may decide to really ta ke conservatives may decide to really take a stand going forward.

apparently in tower hamlets and a couple of london boroughs, they are looking into certain statues. the other story in the sunday telegraph is about the home secretary priti patel and the government supposedly preparing to use nets to stop the dinghies that are carrying migrants across the channel? this comes from an interview with the clandestinely channel threat commander. nets are a p pa re ntly channel threat commander. nets are apparently the next bright idea from the home office, having seen a moving asylum seekers into the middle of the atlantic for processing. they have the idea of waves being generated to push these dinghies back to france. nets is the new one. it is a bit hysterical, almost. i think it is very important in this migrant issue to bear in mind some context. yes, the numbers going up and we should be concerned

about the exploitation of people by people smugglers. but the uk receives far fewer asylum seekers per head of population than the eu asa per head of population than the eu as a whole. we receive significantly fewer asylu m as a whole. we receive significantly fewer asylum applications than france does. we are not being overwhelmed by these people, these guineas, despite some attempts by newspapers to present it as a huge threat to the uk. —— dinghies. the way to solve these issues is cooperation with france, that is what we should be focusing on, not these harebrained ideas about and waves and these other measures which serve to frighten people and overemphasise the scale of the problem here. something else that might be considered a harebrained idea, certainly according to football fans, is this idea of

charging them £15 every time they watch their premier league team on television. and there was a really searing piece from oliver in the mail on sunday, really greedy clubs will squeeze fans until they squeak? it isa will squeeze fans until they squeak? it is a time when budgets are increasingly squeezed and people are increasingly squeezed and people are increasingly worried about losing their jobs increasingly worried about losing theirjobs if they have not already and people generally have a lot less money and i having a tough time. the premier league, in its infinite wisdom, had decided it would be a goodidea wisdom, had decided it would be a good idea to take people for even more money, and bearing in mind lots of these people have already shelled out hundreds and hundreds of pounds on season tickets that they are not able to use. they would like to charge 14 pounds 95 to watch a match, any match that is not being cove red. match, any match that is not being covered. 0n the vote on friday,

shout out to leicester city because they were apparently the only ones that stood against this. by the time it got to leicester, it was pretty clear that this was going to happen, but they made a stance, so good for them. there was a very serious piece because as he is saying, the supermarkets don't help out corner shops and deliveroo doesn't help out the little cafes. but the premier league has so much money. they are a vastly profitable organisation. they are making less money at the moment but it has been pointed out that people do ultimately have a choice. the choice is wait and watch the highlights on match of the day with your bbc tv licence. it could be that this comes back to bite them. it could be that they get a lot of bad press. i going to shell out £15

to watch that? i don't shell out on any football, so i don't watch that. people don't regard clubs as businesses. 0liver people don't regard clubs as businesses. oliver is right. the comparison between clubs and supermarkets is incorrect because people don't support their local supermarket in the way that they support their local football club. they expect their clubs in a time when a whole country is facing an economic disaster, high unemployment, big pressure on living standards, to have a consideration for that. this £15 per match price does not reflect that consideration. katherine, let's end up with this teen queen as she is being proclaimed.

iga swiatek, she was thinking about going to university. she is only 19. she sailed through the french open. she sailed through the french open. she was thinking about, should i even carry on with my tennis career? she had a place to go to university in the autumn, and she has no 11—4p, and it was not even close in the end. she won 6—4, 6—1. lots of sports stars have been coming out to say she is going to do fabulous things in the future. certainly one for us to watch. congratulations to you both. thank you for being with us. you both. thank you for being with us. great paper review, as ever. thank you for being with us. headlines coming up at the top of the hour. hello there. part two of the weekend

looks a little more promising, with more sunshine around and certainly fewer showers than we had yesterday. frequent showers in the finals of scotland. look at argyll and bute for the moment. looks the perfect day for messing about on the water with just some day for messing about on the water withjust some fair day for messing about on the water with just some fair weather cloud. yesterday's showers have moved off into scandinavia. this influence of high pressure, a weatherfront topples in a later on today. it basically means that today will be a quieter story. a few scattered showers running down through north sea coasts. a few scattered charities across wales and south—west england. lighter winds. not a warm sauce. temperatures may well struggle. i suspect in sheltered areas where we get to see the best of the sunshine, we might see 15 to 16 degrees. perhaps cooler along that coast. we search to see cloud and main gathering into the afternoon in the west. western fringes of scotland, northern

ireland seems somewhat weather into the night. cloud ahead of it. we could see showers across western and south—western england here. temperatures dipping out into single figures in rural parts. a chilly start here but a bright start. not for long. clouding over quickly. the cloud and rain moves steadily out of scotla nd cloud and rain moves steadily out of scotland and northern ireland down through northern england. here, it might well lingerfor the through northern england. here, it might well linger for the day and temperatures could struggle. perhaps a maximum of nine or 10 degrees. the rain not arriving into the london area until the end of the day, but a brighter story in the end of the afternoon in scotland and northern ireland. that weather front could lingerfor ireland. that weather front could linger for a ireland. that weather front could lingerfor a time on ireland. that weather front could linger for a time on sunday. ireland. that weather front could lingerfor a time on sunday. it sinks its way steadily south and east. the isobars swing around into a north—easterly direction, so the wind swings around into a north—easterly. salary outbreaks of rain slipping its way across england, slipping its way across

england, slipping its way across england, clearing the of ten or 13 celsius. away down on weather should be in the middle part of october. if you want something drier and more optimistic, wednesday to thursday, high pressure builds and pointing things down. but still, not particularly warm temperatures again struggling. a maximum on tuesday of ten or 13 celsius. away down on weather should be in the middle part of october. if you want something drier and more optimistic, wednesday to thursday, high pressure builds and pointing things down. but still, not particularly warm with it.
