ahead of this week's budget, an early announcement of help for struggling businesses — £5 billion in grants. more than 20 million people in the uk have now received their first dose of a coronavirus vaccine. a violent crackdown by troops in myanmar. at least 18 people are killed in protests against the military coup. hello, and welcome to our look ahead to what the papers will be bringing us tomorrow. with me are the author and journalist yasmin alibhai—brown, and the executive chairman of the cicero group, iain anderson.

welcome to both of them, and we'll catch up with both of them, they've had an advance of the front pages, so i want to bring you up—to—date with what we have on the papers that we've received so far this evening. the i leads on the news that six cases of the brazilian variant of coronavirus have now been discovered in the uk, and highlights the fact that one of the infected sorry about that, i just needed sorry about that, ijust needed to have a cough. and highlights the fact that one of the infected travellers remains unidentified. that story also the lead for the telegraph — the paper says the hunt is on to find that unidentified traveller. bbc rugby reporter sonja mclaughlan is featured on the front page. the online abuse she faced following her post match interviews at the england—wales game on saturday has been widely condemned. the guardian says that the existence of the brazilian variant in the uk means there are growing calls

for tougher measures at the border. the paper also shines a light on the protests in myanmar — at least 18 people have been killed in clashes over the past day. the daily mail carries the results of its own investigation — which has found more than half of the uk's police stations have closed in the past decade. and the metro pays tribute to tv soap icon, johnny briggs, who's died at the age of 85. he played coronation street's mike baldwin for 30 years. good job i've got both of you with me to save me from my failing voice. lovely to have you both, thank you very much for being with us. let's start with the front of the i.

from where we've been so long, optimism and hope, the vaccination programme's going well. and then, every time you allow yourself to think like that, something comes along, new variants come along, and we have no idea whether the vaccine — i've had my firstjab — whether that will protect me against the new variants, and the brazilian one is the most recent of them. and i think the most recent of them. and i think the rush is on to find out a, how it got here, and b, whether the vaccinations will have to get a boost. psychologically it's terrifying, actually.- boost. psychologically it's terrifying, actually. ian, what you make of it? _ terrifying, actually. ian, what you make of it? mutant _ terrifying, actually. ian, what you make of it? mutant brazil- terrifying, actually. ian, what you make of it? mutant brazil strain l terrifying, actually. ian, what you| make of it? mutant brazil strain in the uk sort of implies that there are lots of cases. we know that there are six definite cases, but we don't know if it's spread beyond that? ., �* ,

"hunt for uk patient with brazil variant." for want of a better phrase, this is the mystery patient, the one who hasn't received any result and they're trying to trace his person. but there is a wider point, isn't there, these people apparently returned a few days before the measures were introduced to protect people from the variance, of which brazil is one. we know weeks after portugal closed their borders to travellers from brazil, does it raise concerns about how quickly we've responded to the question of foreign travel and these new variants?— the question of foreign travel and these new variants?- they l the question of foreign travel and these new variants? 50mg. they are these new variants? sorry. they are

of control, for example, that australia has imposed. it seems to me that the government has always been torn between not wanting to be big state authoritarians, and get having to be. do big state authoritarians, and get having to be— big state authoritarians, and get havin: to be. ., ., . having to be. do you want to reflect on that? she's _ having to be. do you want to reflect on that? she's also _ having to be. do you want to reflect on that? she's also picked - having to be. do you want to reflect on that? she's also picked up - having to be. do you want to reflect on that? she's also picked up on . having to be. do you want to reflect| on that? she's also picked up on the front page of the guardian, which sounds alarm over border restrictions. do you think there is that tension in the government? look, all the way through this, the inclinations — look, all the way through this, the inclinations of boris johnson look, all the way through this, the inclinations of borisjohnson in particular— inclinations of borisjohnson in particular has been to, you know, almost _ particular has been to, you know, almost move at the last moment to try and _ almost move at the last moment to try and keep as much economic activity— try and keep as much economic activity and travel as possible. and i do activity and travel as possible. and i do think— activity and travel as possible. and i do think as — activity and travel as possible. and i do think as i said earlier, when we get _ i do think as i said earlier, when we get to— i do think as i said earlier, when we get to the public inquiry, this is going — we get to the public inquiry, this is going to — we get to the public inquiry, this is going to be one of the issues

guardian, because the front page photograph — battlefield in myanmar. it's a very striking image, obviously not thankfully the image of someone who's died, but there are plenty enough now of fatal casualties from the army's actions. do you think the myanmar military underestimated the response, given the history? underestimated the response, given the histo ? , ., the history? exactly, and i don't think we should _ the history? exactly, and i don't think we should refer— the history? exactly, and i don't think we should refer to - the history? exactly, and i don't think we should refer to it - the history? exactly, and i don't think we should refer to it as . the history? exactly, and i don't think we should refer to it as a i think we should refer to it as a class. the power is on the right side —— one side, and the right is on the other. just as with the arab spring, these protesters are young. we knew this was going to happen. 0ne we knew this was going to happen. one of the things one must remember is that covid has given some of the worst people around the world and excuse to behave in the most grotesquely authoritarian ways. i

think amnesty said 83 countries at the moment have had all their freedoms suppressed and so on. in my mind, it is a terrible, terrible example of how military rule behaves, you know? we must remember that other things are happening beyond covid, i suppose, so it's good to have this on the front page of the guardian. ian. good to have this on the front page of the guardian.— of the guardian. ian, it raises as ever the question _ of the guardian. ian, it raises as ever the question of _ of the guardian. ian, it raises as ever the question of what - of the guardian. ian, it raises as ever the question of what the i ever the question of what the international community does. we've had a talk of sanctions, we were talking on bbc world news earlier saying that we need to get the un security council and it needs to take some direct action. we had the un ambassadorfrom take some direct action. we had the un ambassador from myanmar sacked take some direct action. we had the un ambassadorfrom myanmar sacked on friday because he'd spoken on friday saying he represents the lawfully elected government, not the people who've taken over now. but it raises the question, what can you do from

the question, what can you do from the outside that will be effective without further weakening the economic existence, the day—to—day existence of the ordinary people living in the country?— existence of the ordinary people living in the country? what can you do and what _ living in the country? what can you do and what is _ living in the country? what can you do and what is the _ living in the country? what can you do and what is the international- do and what is the international community want to do? you know, given— community want to do? you know, given the _ community want to do? you know, given the fact that so much of global— given the fact that so much of global life has been disrupted — all our lives _ global life has been disrupted — all our lives have been disrupted in the past year. _ our lives have been disrupted in the past year, and politically there's probably— past year, and politically there's probably a lot of reluctance from nation _ probably a lot of reluctance from nation states to get involved in this conversation. yes, passing some resolutions _ this conversation. yes, passing some resolutions at the un always happens, but where will be the real action— happens, but where will be the real action to _ happens, but where will be the real action to intervene here? i don't see it _ action to intervene here? i don't see it now— action to intervene here? i don't see it. now a change in the white house, _ see it. now a change in the white house, a — see it. now a change in the white house, a change tojoe biden is

put them back on and tell us what it's like. well, it's certainly immersive, of course. this is designerjenn lee's show. it was shot in live action so that viewers can experience it in a vr headset or google cardboard. it's a great 360 view around, although i feel like i'm at a circus, but i guess that's just high fashion for you! and what's really struck me is that this goes so much further than just putting clothes online. four years ago, a mysterious model stirred up the fashion industry. her name was shudu and nobody knew where she came from. turns out shudu wasn't real — she came from the imagination of fashion photographer cameronjames wilson and she became an internet sensation. she even appeared in a digital—only swarovski dress at the 2019 baftas

in london, with her movements provided by a real model in canada. such was shudu's success that wilson decided to create a model agency called the diigitals and design six more models to create a more diverse line—up, including galaxia, a much—needed alien model. in all seriousness, wilson thinks that his approach can tackle one of the biggest issues that the fashion industry faces — sustainability. in the next 3—5 years, many of the brands that we know today are going to be using 3d in their pipelines in some way, shape orform — whether that's designing the clothes or creating campaigns with digital models so, as you can imagine, that means that digital models are going to become more and more in demand as it makes much more sense to put your 3d clothes on 3d models. it allows them to visualise and even sell clothes that

haven't even been made yet, so they can do things like a pre—order on collections and that way, they have not wasted any materials in making those garments. one of the biggest sources of waste within the fashion industry is returns and having too much stock. that all goes to waste or it's burned. doing anything that can help stop that and reduce that is extremely important. and designer collective the fabricant are trying to do exactly that, creating 3d garments from scratch with only digital models in mind. and notjust supermodels like these, but us too — our avatars. we create clothes that are always digital and never, ever physical so with that, we try to change the landscape of what fashion will look like for the 21st century. and we're trying to see how we can reshape the way we wear, produce and create clothes, and to see if we can create

a more sustainable way. fabricant�*s founder, amber slooten, became concerned about the environmental impact of fast fashion when she was a student at the amsterdam fashion institute. so she decided to put down her needle and thread, pick up a computer and mouse, and start creating virtual garments for some of the world's biggest fashion brands. this one was sold for almost $10,000 — a custom frock which has not and never will exist in the reals. i think maybe 50 peoples are walking their day in real life but, like, millions and millions of people saw her wearing that dress online. and then, my question always is, like, what is the difference, right? and, like, even in this culture still, the only sort of proof we have of our identity is our pictures. i think maybe 50 people saw her walking that day. cameronjames has been dressing

some of his 3d models using fabricant�*s free collection. we downloaded some of their free clothing — which they call �*ffrops' — from their website and put them on one of our models called boyce. he looked absolutely amazing in them, and it highlighted the way that the 3d fashion industry can work. we can collaborate with each other across the world and for free. you know, there's no waste involved. there's certainly a lot of motivation to cut waste, both in materials and in transport. the european union has promised to save 55% of their c02 footprint. from where is that coming from and how do we save that? look around you — all of the industries are digitised. change takes time, so it will take time. the good thing with digital fashion is that it's utterly scalable and it's very fast so, like, once you hit a critical mass, it can happen really, really quickly. but what started as an attempt to make fashion more environmentally friendly may lead to something equally world—changing.

a new cult is rising. i'm a 19—year—old musician, change seeker, taco truck expert and robot. from virtual models to virtual social media stars, all wearing virtual clothing. is this what we'll all be spending our money on soon? those models are incredible, but we've been doing some modelling of our own. drumroll cheering and applause yeah, so that was actually a digital outfit built for me especially by a company called dressx. at the moment, their digital clothing can only be shown on still images, but what did you think? did i cut the mustard? 0h, brilliant! and i loved the branding! spencer isn't the only one who's been virtually dressing up, though. the fashion industry predicts that digital garments will become big business over the next two decades.

the idea of buying virtual goods has long existed in gaming, where in—game purchases have played their part in creating a digital—only goods market. but these new online shops are full of brands that are hoping to unite the digital and the real world. a bit like the effects on video chat, one day we might be wearing virtual designer outfits as well. definitely, we understand that dressx is a product literally for everyone who has any kind of a digital identity online. right now, the process is pretty straightforward and actually replicates our shopping habits. 0n the product page, you upload your photo and then you check out. you will receive your result next day and it is ready to be shared. so, of course, i had a go

too, but i was pretty underwhelmed by the result. as much as i may have always dreamt of a click dress, the fit wasn't great and you can see my sleeves — although if i provided an original picture in swimwear, that would have overcome that issue. this is early days, but companies are working on being able to dress customers live in video, and it's then that our real wardrobes may have some competition. colourful flowers are starting to blossom, inspiring ourfashion and make—up choices for a new season. experimenting with spring colours and make—up is challenging at the moment with many beauty store counters closed, but new apps are providing perfect make—up matches using ai and glasses you can use at home or even in the park. these are zozoglass by japanese

online fashion retailer, zozo. they're designed with these different colour swatches around your eyes and when using them with their smartphone app, you can find the perfect foundation colour for your skin tone without leaving your home. the first step is using your smartphone's camera to look at all of the colours on the frame. as you look around, the app sees how each of the colours are affected by the environment. this environmental lighting is calculated and then removed from the image, revealing the true colour of your skin, hair and eyes. your face is shown split into different zones with the best foundation shades for each section. it also detects percentages of haemoglobin and melanin in your skin and your personal colour for clothing that would suit your skin tone. we will also be enabling ar make—up, but colour—corrected ar make—up, so that you put the glasses on for about three seconds and then you can do make—up virtually,

but that colour correction really shows what you would really look like wearing that make—up because it is corrected. the company has already released remote shopping products like the zozomat, which measures your feet, and the zozosuit, which measures your body. the new platform will launch injapan in march and the glasses will be shipped to customers for free. another beauty app that has been inspired by the lockdown and will help you shop from home is chanel�*s lipscanner. we tried it outside on different flowers. you pick the exact area of colour you like and lipscanner recommends the closest shade of product to match. as well as the colour, you can see if it looks better as a gloss or a matte. if you decide you don't like the colour suggested you can flick through different ones and they all appear on your lips. chanel�*s app takes into account your

skin tone and lip shape when making recommendations. the perfect shade is then sent to your home. and it really is amazing how close the colour match is to what i did on my video. so this is shade a7, daring red, and it's almost exactly the same. i'm really impressed because the way it's applied in the app is much better than the way that i have applied it on my own lips. it is incredible! so while beauty counters remain under wraps around the world, innovations making it easier to find make—up from home will become more advanced. brilliant! that wasjen finishing the short version of what i think has been an incredibly fashionable show. what do you reckon? just call us the click catwalk! yeah, indeed! the full—length version of this week's program is waiting for you right now on iplayer. and as ever, you can keep up with the team on social media throughout the week. find us on youtube, instagram, facebook and twitter at @bbcclick. thank you for watching

and we will see you soon. bye— bye. hello again. the next few days on the weather front looking pretty quiet, really, weather—wise. there'll be some morning frost and a little bit of fog to come, some dry weather with sunshine. but as the week goes by, it probably turns a bit cloudier and certainly a lot cooler as we head towards thursday and indeed friday as well. here's the weather picture at the moment. clear skies being replaced by low cloud, mist and fog across east anglia. the midlands, central and eastern parts of wales turning pretty murky as well. got quite a bit of cloud in scotland, so that's keeping the frost at bay here for quite a few. but where we do have those clearer skies, it's going to be cold with temperatures down to about —3 celsius.

and for some of you, yes, it will be quite a grey start to the day. now, i think the worst of the low cloud and the mist and fog probably stretching across east anglia, the midlands, central and eastern parts of wales. and along this zone, there will be some areas that keep it all day. where that happens, it will be quite cool. further northwards, cloud tending to thin in scotland. some sunny spells here. sunshine, too, developing in northern ireland, much of western wales and southern england. highs about 11 celsius.

this is bbc news with the latest headlines for viewers in the uk and around the world. he says his journey is "far from over". who knows? i may even decide to beat them for a third time, 0k? cheering a violent crackdown by troops in myanmar — exactly four weeks since the military coup. at least 18 people have been killed since the military takeover. six cases of the brazilian variant of coronavirus are found in the uk for the first time.
