hello and welcome if you're watching in the uk or around the world. a boeing 737 passenger plane — carrying 62 people — is believed to have crashed into the sea in indonesia. the authorities have had to suspend their search overnight for the airlinesjet — which appeared to fall around ten—thousand feet in less than a minute after taking off from the capitaljakarta en route to pontia—nak. jonathan head reports. flight sj182 had only been in the airforfour minutes when all contact was lost. with no emergency call from the pilots, indonesian officials struggled to piece together what might have happened.

transport minister budi karya sumadi described the boeing aircraft veering off—course before disappearing from radar screens. the flight tracking app, flightradar, monitored the plane making an apparent plunge from 10,000 feet to near sea level before it vanished. friends and relatives were left waiting at its destination in the city of pontianak, but there was no information to give them. the authorities are now setting up a crisis centre for them in the capital, jakarta. a depressingly familiar scene in indonesia, which has a poor aviation safety record. several boats were sent out to search for any signs of the missing plane. some reported finding what looked like debris, but by nightfall, the search had to be called off until morning. translation: we are deeply sorry for what has happened to flight sj182. we hope our prayers can help with the searching process and that everything goes well.

the plane disappeared close to where lion air flight 610 crashed two years ago. that exposed flaws in the design of the brand—new boeing 737 max. this flight involved a much older plane, though sriwijaya air says there was no known problems with it. the airline is one of dozens which have proliferated in indonesia in the past 20 years, giving millions access to air travel for the first time, but raising worrying questions about safety. jonathan head, bbc news, bangkok. i'm joined now by former pilot mark weiss. he flew boeing 737s as a captain for american airlines and heads the weiss consulting group. thank you so much forjoining us. we don't know very much but i wanted to ask you, what are the protocols after an apparent disaster like this

one? well, every accident follows a procedural method. we all grieve for the families, for the loved ones that we lost in the aircraft. typically, what is going to happen 110w typically, what is going to happen now is the investigating agencies of indonesia, because it was a us air plane, the nationals transportation safety boa rd will plane, the nationals transportation safety board will be brought in, the manufacture of the engines, french us and other management —— major component men fanny —— manufacturers in britain will be brought in to see there are any difficulties or problems with parts of the aircraft, whether it was the engines, the wings, whether it was fuel contamination. investigators will go over every bit in detail over every inch of that aircraft, from the history of that aircraft, what happened to the pilots, give us the

left —— a list, 2a hours of the crew, where they slip, where they flying a lot, tell me of the aeroplane? this was the third —— the third leg of that aircraft during that day so it was at a different crew? did they have problems of the aeroplane? so, it is what they are looking for, in terms of the wreckage that is found and perhaps the black boxes, also what they are listening for. well, the black boxes will be critical because that will determine whether or not there were sounds in the cockpit of perhaps an explosion. they will look at the wreckage and find out how the metal was bent in or out, which could be a potential explosive device. where their missiles in the area? we saw that just over a their missiles in the area? we saw thatjust over a year ago with the ukrainian 737 that was shot down. the sound you get from the cockpit

voice recorder and information from the flight data recorder will be critical. that aeroplane reached an altitude of approximately 11,000 feet and then plunged in a vertical dive at 28,000 for a minute. there was no time to recover from something like that so they will be looking at everything, structural failure, every aspect of what could have bought a plane down. this was not a 737 max but is it still potentially a problem for boeing? not really, not in the sense that it had it been a max, where everyone is attuned to and then going back, no, this is not going to be the same effect had it been a max. , and remember thousands of these aeroplanes, there are just under 5000 737 fly around the world today.

thank you so much forjoining us. thank you so much forjoining us. thank you. us prosecutors say they've arrested three prominent figures in wednesday's riots at the us capitol. the fbi is appealing for public help in its search for those responsible for the attack. president donald trump also is facing a renewed drive by democrats to remove him from office, for his role in wednesday's storming of the us capitol. for more, we can speak to our correspondent lebo diseko who joins us from washington first, some fairly high—profile arrests. yes, philippa, probably some of the most infamous pictures from wednesday penang riots in the capital. authorities —— from wednesday's riots in the capitol. the first two were arrested today, a man known as jacob chandler, he may be the one people remember most, he

was dressed in a bearskin headdress, horns, had his face painted with an american flag. they have also arrested a man called richard barnett, he is the man alleged to have been in nancy pelosi's 0ffice with his feet up. and then a third man, adam johnson, named with his feet up. and then a third man, adamjohnson, named by prosecutors as a man who was carrying the speaker like turn through the halls. all three have been charged with disorderly conduct and violent entry as well. so, a lot of people here feeling the heat in terms of criminal pursuit, what about donald trump? he is feeling the heat from the democrats. yes, well, in the last hour or so, one of the architects of the impeachment article tweeted saying they now have 180 co—sponsors so even more momentum behind this effort to impeach him. the first stage, the

stage that is in the house of representatives should be fairly easy for democrats to get through, it just needs easy for democrats to get through, itjust needs a simple majority. the challenge for them will come when it comes to the senate. the set is where they will vote on whether to find donald trump guilty or not, and that takes a two thirds majority. of course, that would have to include a number of republicans and whether or not they will sign up to that is something we don't know at this stage it doesn't seem unlikely. separately, also there is the question of timing. mitch mcconnell reportedly circulating a memo to his senators, he is a top senator in the senate, top republican, he says the proceedings for the trial could not begin untiljanuary 28, which as you will know, isjoe biden's inauguration day. proceedings go ahead, he cannot get his cabinet confirmed until it is over. ahead, he cannot get his cabinet confirmed until it is overlj suppose if this goes through just the one stage in the house of

representatives, he still becomes a president who makes history for the wrong reasons. absolutely. and speaking to supporters of the democrats that i know, they say that for them, this is a bad consequences. whether or not the trial is successful and they managed to the victim, they want him to go down in history as the president, the only president ever to have been impeached twice. 0n the other hand, i suppose that a lot of republicans, the first time around, i remember speaking to a number kind of middle—of—the—road republicans are saying that the first impeachment really galvanised their support for donald trump, they felt it was a witch hunt, they felt he was being u nfa i rly witch hunt, they felt he was being unfairly blamed, so we will see what effect this has on his legacy long term. but certainly for a lot of democrats it is about making sure he goes down with that title in history. thank you. in an interview released on saturday, pope francis said people working against democracy must be condemned whoever they are,

and lessons should be learned from this week's attack on the us capitol by supporters of president donald trump. speaking to an italian tv station, he said the assault on the capitol was "against democracy and against common good." i was astonished because americans are people that are so disciplined in democracy but it is in reality evenin in democracy but it is in reality even in the most developed democracy there is always something that is not working with people taking apart against the community, against democracy and against the common good. scientists and senior public health officials in the uk are warning, that despite the lockdown, even tougher restrictions are needed in england to curb the surge in coronavirus cases, hospital admissions, and deaths. government figures show that since the pandemic began, more than 80,000 people in the uk have died within 28 days of a positive covid—19 test. our health correspondent, katharine da costa reports.

the race is on to protect the most vulnerable. this the home of bristol city football club, now one of seven mass vaccination centres. final preparations are being made ahead of monday, when it willjoin hundreds of gp sites and hospital hubs across the country. they have been working genuinely day and night and they're working all through weekends as well, to make sure that their populations get vaccinated. it's not like flu clinics — this has been hugely complex. more than 32,000 patients are currently being treated for covid across the country, 11,000 more than during the first wave in the spring, and with new admissions now at 4,000 a day, nhs staff say this year's winter pressure is off the charts. it really is unprecedented, in terms of the numbers of patients that require intensive care, being put on ventilator at one time and most hospitals have reached...

have expanded their intensive care capacity to somewhere in the region of three times their normal capacity. there's now an urgent need to free up some beds at some hospitals. this hotel in south london's preparing to take on a small number of homeless or vulnerable covid patients from king's college hospital, while they continue their recovery. once more, we must all stay home. a simple and clear message in this new government campaign, reinforcing just how critical it is to follow the social distancing rules, wear a mask, wash your hands and ventilate indoor spaces, because even with the uk—wide lockdowns, experts warn the new variant spreads more easily, which is likely to make the virus much harder to control. because we have the more infectious variant, which is somewhere around 50% more infectious than last time round in march, that means that if we were to achieve the same results as we got in march, we would have to have a stricter lockdown than then,

and it's not stricter, it's actually less strict. vaccinations will eventually help relieve pressure on the nhs. today, the queen and duke of edinburgh received their first doses, but with new infections still at record levels, hospital admissions and deaths are expected to continue rising for several weeks to come. katharine da costa, bbc news. well, let's take a look now at the latest government figures in detail. there were 59,937 new coronavirus cases recorded in the latest 24—hour period. and there were 1,035 deaths — that's people who died within 28 days of a positive covid—19 test. it takes the total number of deaths, so far, across the uk, to 80,868. buckingham palace has confirmed that both the queen and the duke of edinburgh have been vaccinated against covid—19. royal sources say the jabs were administered by a household doctor at windsor castle —

though we've not been told which vaccination they received. it's being reported that the decision to release the news was made by the queen, so as to prevent any inaccuracies or further speculation. 0ur royal correspondent, nicholas witchell has more details. normally, of course, the queen and the royals are very sensitive about disclosing medical details, but in this instance, clearly, they want to set an example and encourage people to come forward and have the vaccinations. so buckingham palace has let it be known, and it is the queen's decision that both she and the duke of edinburgh had their covid—19 vaccinations earlier today. they were administered by a doctorfrom the medical household at windsor castle, and of course they are both, at their ages — the queen 94, just a few months short of her 95th birthday, the duke 99 — they are both, of course, in the categories that are entitled to early vaccination, so there is no question of, sort of, jumping of the queue, but they will want this to be

generally known that they have received their vaccinations in the hope that this will encourage any of those who have misgivings about the vaccination process. the headlines on bbc news... a boeing 737 passenger plane has crashed into the sea shortly after takeoff from jakarta, indonesia. sixty two people were on board. the second impeachment process against donald trump could begin as early as monday — according to democrats who've circulated a draft of their resolution to remove him. the uk has now recorded more than three million cases of coronavirus since the start of the pandemic. nearly 60,000 people tested positive for covid—19 on saturday — with more than a thousand deaths. a huge power cut has left vast swathes of pakistan without power. officials said they are working on restoring the supply. let's get mroe on this. secunder kermani joins me

from islamabad by candlelight. what is happening? well, around two hours ago, midnight local time, powell was cut to homes across the country, including as you say to my one here in islamabad. the power minister has appealed for calm, he said this had been caused by a drop in frequency in the transmission system and he said that officials are working on restoring the service —— restoring services. this has been a really nationwide blackout with residents from every major city, every province, talking about power outages in their areas. we are now getting reports that in some places, power is being restored but officials had said it could take several hours for services to be fully restored right across the country. and how unusual is that? has it ever happened before? well,

this is unusual. i have been in pakistan reporting the four years and sadly we have never seen anything like this. power cuts are not uncommon, they but definite on the scale, often what you would see at the height of summer when a lot of people are using fans and air conditioning units because of the heat would be a couple of hours are a number of hours of power cuts but certainly something like this has really ta ke n certainly something like this has really taken people by surprise. there is concern, of course, about what the impact could be on hospitals for example but because power cuts, even if they are not on this scale, are not uncommon, places like hospitals, places like airports, even many individual better off families have diesel powered generators which can provide electricity for a period of time, so have been speaking to some apples and some hospitals and they savour the moment they are all 0k. —— some airports some hospitals. but if this

continued for a lot longer, concerns would be rising. but for the moment, people seem to be fairly calm. there isa people seem to be fairly calm. there is a wedding happening down the street from me and it has continued despite the power cut. thank you. let's get more on the storming of the us capitol on wednesday by pro—trump supporters. the way the crowd managed to breach the building's security has many in the us and around the world asking questions about the differences between the policing of black lives matter protests, compared with what we saw earlier in the week. (vt) anytime black people gather, we are met tear gas, rubber bullets, we are beaten with batons, told to move back. and then to witness a group of people violently stormed the us

capitol with little police resistance, it was a sort of the tale of two americas. as a pro-trump march stormed the us capitol, many black americans called out the double standards in policing, pray teach wisdom and protest. when i was watching everything, i wasjust, oh, my god. if that was us, we would have been murdered. let's look at the police response. no one can tell me that if that had been agreed at black lives matter is protesting yesterday, they would not have been —— they would have been treated very, very differently. that the mob of thugs that stormed the capitol. and it is unacceptable, totally unacceptable. after the death of george floyd, lily dived national guard is 1600 troops were sent to sent to dc to defend the city and we re sent to dc to defend the city and were placed close to where

protesters had been expected. this time it was different. note dryer police, no national guard on the steps in the belief that whether we re steps in the belief that whether were not enough. just educate yourself on the history of this country. and you will realise that it is totally about race. these people literally took over the capitol with weapons, and they were welcomed in an taking selfies with the police. capitol police ely race was a factor as say officers were overwhelmed. it took office as four hours to secure the us capitol and at least five people have died. and why law enforcement is looking to file additional charges, so far the majority of arrests have been for violating curfew. 68 people were arrested on wednesday night... we are going to walk down to the

capitol, and we are going to cheer on our brave senators and congressmen and women. president donald trump has been accused of riding them up with false claims of a stolen election. when black life matters activists were actively protesting someone being killed, they have been classified, you know, as folks, as extremists, the president classified as as anarchists, anti—american, but somehow these terrorists are protesters. go home, we love you, your very special. he later condemned their actions and the national guard was deployed after rioters reached the capitol. to those who broke the law, you will pat’- those who broke the law, you will pay. but for some, it was too little too late. the very reason why the

police show extreme restraint and even police show extreme restraint and eve n we re police show extreme restraint and even were unprepared were these white domestic terrorists are some of the same reasons why the police refused to show restraint in too many cases and end up killing black people. i'm like, yellow, this is america, and it is the america that we literally tried to dismantle. we say defined the police, this is what we are talking about, they don't keep us safe. the world's oldest living olympic champion is celebrating her 100th birthday. the hungarian gymnast, agnesh kellerti, won 10 medals in the helsinki and melbourne games in the 1950s —— 5 of them gold. she escaped the holocaust and has a new book about her life.jatinder jatinder dhillon reports. she'sjust turned 100, but agnes keleti's bubbling energy and enthusiasm has no bounds. celebrating her birthday with close

family, she says of her remarkable long life that it so far has passed by in a flash. translation: 100 years seemsjust like 60 to me, really. i love to live and i wish for health and there it is! i like to live and i live well. what else is better? i'm healthy and i like my life very much. in her elegant apartment in budapest, this feisty 0lympian and holocaust survivor is surrounded by mementos and medals of her life story, which include adventures and great achievements, but also heartbreak and tragedy. herfirst love was music, but inspired by her father's love of rowing with the family on the danube, agnes swapped her cello for a leotard and took up gymnastics, winning several national medals. in 1940, during the second world war, she was barred from taking part

in any of her country's sporting activities because of herjewish background. after the nazi german occupation of hungary in 1944, she skipped deportation to a death camp by assuming the identity of a maid and went into hiding. her father and several relatives were killed in auschwitz. her mother and brother escaped to sweden. she made her mark as an 0lympian, winning five gold medals in the 1952 helsinki games, and at the 1956 melbourne games, which were won after she turned 30 and was competing against gymnasts half her age. when the soviet tanks crushed the hungarian revolution in 1956, she stayed first in australia and then moved to israel, only returning to hungary in 2015. the queen of gymnastics! and now, to mark her centenary, there's a new book about her life, and the energetic spirit of hungary's most successful gymnast remains intact.

translation: am i 100 years old? let's blow those candles out! jatinder dhillon, bbc news. now it's time for a look at the weather with chris fawkes. hello there. we are seeing a real mixture of weather around today. across parts of east anglia, fog lingered all day, with temperatures for some staying below freezing, sa nton downham, for example. temperatures about —1.5 celsius at best. sunshine did come out elsewhere across the uk and in the sunnier moments temperatures reached around 3 or 4 degrees quite widely, but the mildest weather was in western scotland, where the hebrides saw temperatures as high as 8 celsius and that milder air will continue to push into western scotland as we go through the night. there will be some rain around, maybe a bit of wintriness for a time across parts of scotland, just enhancing the risk of icy stretches here and certainly there will be some snow showers at times in shetland. and that fog reforming, re—thickening across parts of east anglia and across parts of southern england as well. now, tomorrow the mist

and fog should clear. we will see the brighter skies work in as we go through the morning into the afternoon, looking fine across southern portions of the uk. further north we have got cloud and rain, damp weather at times for northern ireland, the north—west of england and wales, but the heaviest rain will be in western areas of scotland. temperatures milder, looking at highs across the uk of 5—7, although still cold air loitering in shetland with further snow showers here. 0n into monday, we are getting even milder air pushing in off the atlantic, but with that comes some stronger west— south—westerly winds and some rain. now, the rain is going to be at its heaviest in western scotland, where combined with snowmelt there is a risk of seeing some localised flooding building on here. so to the northern edge of the system we may well see some snow, certainly some snow showers again affecting shetland and perhaps 0rkney as well, whereas further south it is mild, temperatures 8 or 9 celsius, so those temperatures are a lot higher than we have seen for a couple of weeks

for most of us. now, as that rain works through, for tuesday we start to pull in northerly winds again, bringing a short, sharp blast of cool air. so there will be some frost around to start the day on tuesday, but sparkling visibility, good sunny spells for most of us, the risk is a few showers just coming down on the north sea coasts. now, temperature—wise it is going to be a colder day for many areas, 3—4c across open areas, but still relatively mild further south, 8, 9, maybe 10 degrees towards the south—west, but on into wednesday a band of rain pushes through, may well turn to snow just for a short time before the milder air works in from the west and that will be with us for much of the rest of the week.
