those parts of england and then those showers following on behind. weather system showers following on behind. weather syste m m oves showers following on behind. weather system moves away on sunday night into monday morning so very mild with the low pressure setting towards the north—west of the uk feeding on those brisk south — south—westerly winds, essentially sunshine and bands of showers and wetter weather across western areas, pushing into scotland, showered through the english channel, so drier weather but not completely dry gci’oss drier weather but not completely dry across the midlands and eastern england. fairly mild with the temperature 11—12 for much of the country. still very mixed through the rest of the week, the ones not quite as strong, wet and windy weather on thursday and probably returning on friday as well. thursday looks like it should be a bit drier and brighter with some sunshine.

hello, this is bbc news. we'll be taking a look at tomorrow morning's papers in a moment with martin lipton and penny smith. first, the headlines. talks between the eu and the uk are continuing overnight in brussels, with both sides warning they're unlikely to reach a post—brexit agreement by tomorrow's deadline. four royal navy patrol ships are being put on standby to help protect britain's fishing waters in the event of a no—deal brexit. the uk, china and india are among the countries to have made pledges to cut carbon emissions at a virtual climate summit. the us regulator authorises the pfizer biontech coronavirus vaccine. donald trump says it'll be rolled out immediately.

hello and welcome to our look ahead to what the papers will be bringing us tomorrow. with me are the chief sports reporter at the sun, martin lipton and the broadcaster, penny smith. first, though, look at tomorrow's front pages. the observer leads with the talks between britain and the eu about a post—brexit trade deal. the paper claims that some senior tories and business leaders are angry over the prime minister's readiness to embrace a no—deal brexit. the sunday telegraph also goes with brexit, detailing plans being drawn up by the cabinet for a multi—billion—pound bailout package to bolster industries hardest hit by a no—deal brexit. the independent has a story on its front page claiming the uk bought personal protective equipment from firms accused of slavery, despite warnings from within government. ‘hours from a no deal‘ says the sunday mirror,

as the paper raises the prospect of potential job cuts and price hikes in the event of a no—deal brexit. let's begin now, martin and penny. thank you both of us for talking to us thank you both of us for talking to us this evening. let's start with the sunday mirror. britain stands hours from a no—deal brexit, raising fears of price hikes and job cuts. it looks like the clock really is ticking down to the end. it isn't a really cheery, upbeat or end. it isn't a really cheery, y end. it isn't a really cheery, d end. it isn't a really cheery, upbeat or happy good mood front page. doom, gloom and despair seem to be the tone of it. the sort of three—part element to the story. unacceptable meaning continues as today's deadline looms, fears of huge price rises and job cuts. i think this is the latest deadline.

it isa think this is the latest deadline. it is a week after the last week's latest deadline, which was a week after the previous last deadline. i think we're all getting sick to the back teeth of deadlines. we'll find out if this one is real. we will be utterly shocked if we go into extra time at the end of extra time, because that seems to be the process , because that seems to be the process, but it seems that we are at the tipping point at d—day. it increasingly looks as though there will be no deal, or we will have an australian style wto terms exit from the eu. and i think most people will feel that that's not ideal, but it appears to be where we're heading. penny, what do you think?” appears to be where we're heading. penny, what do you think? i do rather objected to this australian terms. maybe the australians themselves, if you don't want that we've got, we've agreed it's not very good. you can equally call it the ethiopian deal. it'sjust wto

deal, isn't it? when you look at the figures, when i am so glad that i'm not in an organisation in a company that actually does anything with the eu block, when you look at the figures, they are scary. 43% of british export last year went to the eu. we're going to have 35%, some meat more than 45%, we're going to be ok for efficient land and i can say that fairly safely. it might be a problem with medicines from europe, that could be disruptive. there'll lots of people are saying who cares. there are lots of businesses who support the city. i do think it's very sick gary. the thing is though that we should perhaps not just come thing is though that we should perhaps notjust come straight on how bad this is for britain, this could be for britain, it could also be extraordinarily bad for the rest of europe. —— i do think it's very

scary. france will use 3.6 billion euros of year, wine exports being hardly hit. germany, uk is the fifth largest market for german goods and services. they've got problems in the belgian... ithink services. they've got problems in the belgian... i think it was earlier this morning about how the government there is dusting off this really old treaty from charles ii, where they actually gave fishing rights in perpetuity to 50 fishing boats. 50, it's notjust that this is bad news for us. we really ought to get a deal. i think there will be so to get a deal. i think there will be so many people who say for goodness' sake, how can we go down to the wire like this? if we look at the observer, tory grandees, according to the headline, i agree with what penny is saying.

fury over the pm's nationalist no—deal brexit. there is a little taste over a comment article. all that's missing is a spread of evidence —— a shred of evidence. the ideal element is not sitting well with a lot of people within the tory grandees element, but some say within the candidate as well —— the cabinet. i have to be honest, he was a great figure in british politics, but he hasn't been for a quarter of the century. he is now u nfortu nately, the century. he is now unfortunately, in truth, a voice from the past, a voice in the wilderness. does his experience count for nothing these days and politics? surely is a good thing.|j think the experience we have of the last 12 months says anything can change in the space of 30 seconds. i think it's interesting, they talk

about the ridiculous scenario, absolutely irresponsible, he says, to speak about sending boat diplomacy into the north sea. i can just about remember the wars in 1976 against iceland. we didn't even beat iceland in the cod wars. are we going to win the cod wars against the whole of europe? i do not know. damien green who until 18 months ago was the deputy prime minister says no rational person believes a no deal is a good thing. well, there area deal is a good thing. well, there are a lot of people who it seems to wa nt are a lot of people who it seems to want a no deal. they think it's going to be for the better that we will come out of this stronger, united and unified. i'm unconvinced, but this is certainly the position. if all this rising tide of anger is there, i think to phrase a long—ago

film, the prime minister will be frank frankly, he won't give a damn. he seems very frankly to go down this path. the defender of the uk's independence, and he's willing, it seems, to go to the very edge of the unknown. and we are going into, it would have to be said, the great unknown. penny, isn't that the prime minister who said that no—deal brexit is a million to one chance? then recently, a no—deal brexit will have a glorious future. as soon as he said that, a lot of the other people were saying hold on a second, why are we bothering to hammerouta a second, why are we bothering to hammer out a deal? i think the thing is, we all know that what happens, it's like any divorce. if you think about divorces, two separate and so many things seem to be going ok. you do this, you do that, and then it

comes down to the finances, and that's when it always comes unstuck, where somebody says you did that, i did that first, but i put the money in. we're sort of like that, and i do think we will get through it, of course will not get through it. there was a comment —— of course we'll get through it. there was a comment saying we willjust have to put upa comment saying we willjust have to put up a brave answer and get on with it. you talked about going into the unknown in terms of a no deal. on the telegraph front page, getting a little taste of what we do know. billions and no deal health for farmers and factories. cabinet ministers drawing up a multi—billion pound bailout package to bolster some of the industry's hardest hit bya some of the industry's hardest hit by a no—deal brexit. some of the industry's hardest hit by a no-deal brexit. yes, farmers, fishermen, car manufacturers and chemical suppliers. between eight

and £10 billion. that's on top of the bill for covid. remember, we had this question about where is the magic money tree? the answer was in the treasury garden. it was always there. they just found the treasury garden. it was always there. theyjust found it. the amount of money being spent by governmentjust over the 12 month period that we're coming to the end ofan into period that we're coming to the end of an into the next is inconceivable in size. this is a recognition of the genuine issue that's coming down the genuine issue that's coming down the track if we go down this path. it is going to be hugely expensive, and at some point, we've got to pay for it and realise the big issue. is itan for it and realise the big issue. is it an elaborate bluff? that's a big question. i genuinely don't know. talks again today between boris johnson and ursula von der leyen, the head of the eu. maybe this is a bit of a game being played so each

of them can claim a victory when in fa ct, of them can claim a victory when in fact, all they're doing is drawing. i don't really care in that regard. i think genuinely, for most people, we just want to get it finished. we wa nt to we just want to get it finished. we want to have a deal or no deal. we wa nt want to have a deal or no deal. we want a solution. we want it now. we are four years of human vacillation, failure to get to a position of certainty. even if people don't like the certainty, perhaps having certainty helps. penny, you had a bit of a confused face when martin was talking about playing games. bit of a confused face when martin was talking about playing gameslj was talking about playing gameslj wasjust thinking... my was talking about playing gameslj was just thinking... my goodness, they're playing for high—stakes if that's what they're doing. having these daily meetings, i suppose like probably most companies who deal with the eu, the point is you're

better off putting all these things right there in place earlier on rather than scrabbling around at the la st rather than scrabbling around at the last minute. it does seem to me that a lot of people have been talking about it and all of the newspapers actually, that it doesn't seem terribly sorted and together. particularly when we were promised this oven ready deal, this is the worst of and ready deal i think we've ever had. when it was set in front of you, you just look at it and say, thanks very much, i think i'll go to the pub. the pub may be closed if you're into your three. —— in tier 3. energy users to get the best deal automatically. this has to be good news for customers. instead of having to look for the best energy deals, there are now plans afoot to

end of the so—called loyalty penalties of getting people onto the best deal possible. this is good for consumers. this is very good news. the amount that you say by switching this £387 for a family, do the one thing and if there is a comment in this piece what says, you do still have to look around. although you might get the best tariff with that company you're with, it could still alter and change somewhere else. this is all because we're trying to be carbon neutral. it goes on to talk about how we need to be zero emissions by 2050. today, uk co—hosted this international online climate summit, where the prime minister talked about... and it's also mentioning that there is going

to bea also mentioning that there is going to be a roll—out of that home discount which is given to eligible pensioners. that means that is going to bea pensioners. that means that is going to be a around 2 million households. it starts off by saying that goes into those other items of. martin, briefly, your response to this move against what someone called this ripoff. i think everyone would welcome this. my only concern, where is the money coming from to pay for it all? of the power companies actually going to give up on their profits? even if they're forced to, they have a way of robbing peter to pay paul. let's hope this is good news and it is concrete news. we know the government have been talking about green energy and green power, and that's definitely sensible. martin and penny, i know

you'll be back at 11.30, so thank you'll be back at 11.30, so thank you so much to both of you and thank you so much to both of you and thank you for your company. that's it from us, bye—bye. hey, welcome to click! hope you're doing ok. it may be getting cold up here in the northern hemisphere but this is the year when we're all being encouraged to spend as much time as possible outside — ventilation and all — and one person who spends a lot of time outside is lara lewington. yes, i've been running outside more than ever. i think itjust gives you a sense of freedom and at the moment, some sort of sense of normality — although i have been getting very annoyed. this week, people have not been

indicating properly! the cars are just turning around the corner! but i do understand that runners aren't actually that popular at the moment. don't run on the road! now, listen, talking of which, a lot more people have been doing this as well lately. in the last year or so, i've e—scootered around bits of london, copenhagen, wellington and auckland. seems like a lifetime ago now. it certainly does. they are legal in many countries but in the uk, you could only ride them on private land — untiljuly this year, that was, where a trial to see how rental e—scooters could work in uk cities commenced. there are some concerns, though — one being the safety of the riders and other people, and another being the fact that not every e—scooter on the road is allowed to be there. in a follow—up to last year's report, omar mehtab has been taking a look at what's being done to tackle these issues. sirens wail.

well, hey! i'm riding a e—scooter around! ona road! brakes squeal. chuckles. whoa! right. that might not seem like a big deal, but it is. and the reason is because up until recently, you couldn't ride e—scooters on public roads in the uk. ok, let's rewind to last year when i first looked at these light e—vehicles. even then, e—scooters were taking over cities around the world. their growth was supercharged by a cheap and easy rental system. find one, download an app, scan a code and ride away, paying by the minute. but while they have excited consumers, they have proven a major headache for regulators and the uk's position was to put the brakes on their roll—out — both for rental companies and private ownership. it hasn't stopped people buying and riding them on the road. now, let's fast—forwa rd

to may 2020, when the uk's transport minister grant shapps announced a year's trial of rental e—scooters, designed to give people an alternative to public transport during the pandemic. this is a big deal, because the uk is finally joining the likes of france, germany, most states in the us, australia and many others in allowing e—scooters on public roads. we went to milton keynes to visit e—scooter rental company lime and their warehouse, and ride one of their vehicles. they're the first operator allowed to rent them in a town in the uk. now, this was filmed a couple of months ago and since then, places in the uk such as nottingham, birmingham, manchester have started running these trials, and london as well is close to having most boroughs running these services in the near future. but there are some caveats. you must ride your rental e—scooter on the road — not on pavements, just roads.

and other light e—vehicles such as hover boards or e—skateboards, they're still illegal — you cannot ride them out in public. and when it comes to your e—scooter, it must be a rental, it cannot be privately owned. if it is, because it is classed as a motor vehicle, you need things like tax and mot, insurance — things you cannot readily get for e—scooters at the moment. but not everyone is getting that message. like other areas around the city, where i live in east london has not yet allowed the rental of e—scooters, but that's not stopping people from riding their personal ones around. this one even zipped past as we were filming a couple of times. so, i asked a couple of riders if they knew. did you know that these are illegal? ah, yeah, yeah, yeah. you know they are illegal? yeah, yeah, yeah. but you still ride it around anyway? they say if you want to use it, you can use it, it is up to you, but you can use this one only on the park. only on the park, ok. but you used it on the road as well, so you're just hoping

that they don't catch you? yes, sometime i can use it. even when i go to inaudible, there is a lot of people then. and the police as well, they don't complain about it. now, as you heard, someone thought that it's still ok to ride one, despite knowing it's illegal, just because they saw others do so too. is that a good enough reason? no, that's a — that's a pathetic argument, isn't it? to say "i know it is illegal but i see other people doing it, therefore i'm going to do it" is a pathetic argument that just, you know, passes the buck to other people. if you're riding this, you're committing the offences, you're putting yourself at risk and you're putting other people at risk. but now, companies are coming up with innovative solutions to keep riders safe. e—scooter rental company tier includes a collapsible helmet as standard. so, all you do is you take it out, build the thing — if i can. but that is not the only innovation that they have come up with. they've also got indicators

on the handlebars, letting pedestrians as well as cars know when you're turning. there's even a wireless charging slot for your phone. dog barks. and then there's link e—scooters. they have some pretty unique features. link scooters can check their gps location against maps stored directly on the vehicle and immediately enforce geofences around no—go zones, such as pavements or restricted land. and so, this bypasses any phone—to—cloud lag that you would normally have. so, what should happen, thanks to the geofencing here, is that as soon as i get on the pavement, it starts cutting out. you get a beeping... scooter beeps. ..there we go, there we go. and it's limiting my speed, like, a lot. it's not going, it's not going! chuckles. now, it did take a second or two to power off, but that is because i don't want to suddenly stop and launch over the handlebars.

hasn't stopped! but its features did not always work perfectly. this is — this is not working again. it's cut out again. now, to be fair, the e—scooter needs to ride in the geofenced area quite a few times to increase its accuracy, and it did improve over time. i can't ride it any more! and there is another company that allows automatic braking of their e—scooters. voi has integrated an ai computer vision system. developed by luna, an array of cameras and sensors allows scooters to detect hazards in its path, even if the rider does not see them, and by accounting pedestrians, the system can even detect where the scooter is being ridden. so, it looks like companies are quickly innovating to try and combat any objections. and with the uk's transport committee of mps pushing for legislation, it does not seem like a question of if they will be legalised, but when. so, what does the uk

have to look forward to? let's hear from a city where they've been legal and hugely popularfor a while. my suggestion would be do as much community—led engagement and safety sort of launches around how to safely ride a scooter, how to ethically ride a scooter. it's nice to be able to convey to somebody how many miles have been ridden, how many trips have been taken to really demonstrate to people what — how important this is and how it's offsetting trips from their commute. i don't see an end to it anytime soon. the popularity of it is too great for us to not to lean into it and find a way to make it safer over time. for the first time in months, i'm making a video outside of my house! so, i have gone straight into a darkened room to play games in front of a computer screen!

back in 2016, i went to a tech show in paris where i tried out a virtual reality gaming booth that worked with projectors instead of a headset. and four years later, this mightjust be an idea whose time has come. this is the electric gamebox. it's sort of like a cross between an escape room and virtual reality. but instead of the headset, ijust need to wear a visor with this tree of tracking dots on, and those let the cameras and computer know where in the room i am. there are eight rooms at this venue with four projectors in each, providing 360 degrees of visuals. the walls are touch sensitive and, of course, there are motion—tracking cameras. in this game, i'm being tested by aliens to see how intelligent i am, and i've got to control this character and collect as many coins as i can, moving him around with my body. 0h! no, this way! the business was co—founded by will dean, who is also behind the tough mudder endurance events.

this year's have had to be postponed due to the pandemic, but electric gamebox has been able to reopen two of its venues. at the moment, you can only play with your household or bubble, but groups are separated from one another and the equipment is all easily cleaned after use. the question is after months of zoom quizzes and video calls, will people want this type of screen time? well, we believe that what we're doing here is making screen time social again. i went and did an immersive vr experience, and i went with a friend of mine, and when we finished i realised i really have not been with my friend at all. the trouble with vr is it's almost too immersive. here, the fundamental ethos and mission of the business is bringing people together through the value of shared play. some people have compared this to an escape room. obviously in an escape room, there's a lot more physical props. won't people find that more immersive? well, an escape room is a static adventure. it's once and done. here, in some ways, we are a bit more like a movie theatre or a cinema. you can come back, you can play different content each time and as such, we believe we have far more potential

because people keep coming back time and time again. there's also the potential to beat your old score, and we see a lot of people coming back to do that. as well as providing a pandemic—proof activity for families to do, venues like this could help breathe new life into the high street, which has seen big brands fall into administration or even close this year. while shops are struggling, there is a growing appetite for experiences. electric gamebox is about to open its first venue in the united states, and its manchester venue will reopen once restrictions there are relaxed. and that's it for the short cut of click for this week. as ever, the full version, which is brilliant and well worth a watch, is on iplayer right now. and don't forget, you can keep up with the team on social media on youtube, instagram, facebook, and twitter at @bbcclick. thanks for watching and we'll see you soon. bye— bye.

hello. the weather looks very unsettled over the coming few days, with showers or longest of the rain all coming in from the atlantic. we should see this cloud standing across eastern parts of england but lingering in the northeast of scotland and then some clear skies will see temperatures dropping the odd mist or fog patch before the cloud increases. we start to see rain coming into wales in the southwest in northern ireland and lifting temperatures. ahead of that advancing cloud we will see clear skies and may be temperatures close to freezing. it clouds over quickly from the west and we see rain pushing northwards and eastwards come heavy rain probably over the hills of wales in northwest england and heading up toward scotland in the afternoon. maybe some sunshine and showers following into northern ireland and a stronger wind around

understanding sending us come up or tickly around coastal areas, quite strong winds here in the woods coming in from the south or southwest and temperatures in scotland in the northeast of england, seven or 8 degrees, milder elsewhere and possibly 1a celsius in the southwest.

this is bbc news, with the latest headlines for viewers in the uk and around the world. the general in charge of the us coronavirus vaccination drive has said the first innoculations will take place on monday. within the next 2a hours, they will begin moving vaccines from the pfizer manufacturing facility to the ups and fedex hubs. as the festive season continues, health care trusts across england want the government to proceed with caution because of a possible third wave of infections. people are really worried that if we relax the restrictions now, the nhs simply won't be able to cope with all of the work that it needs to do in late december, january, and february. five years since the paris agreement, 45 countries offer
