a police officer has been killed in an attack near the us capitol building in washington, after a man drove his car into two officers before getting out of the vehicle and lunging at them with a knife. the man was then shot by police — he later died. a minneapolis homicide investigator has said police officer derek chauvin used "totally unnecessary" deadly force when kneeling on george floyd's neck during an arrest last may. mr chauvin denies the charges against him. police have been questioning the manager of the construction site whose truck is suspected of causing a train crash in which at least 50 people died. the train hit the lorry that slid onto the tracks from the building site causing hundreds of people to be trapped for hours.

during the pandemic, video games have been a growing source of entertainment and a way for many people to socialise online. the last year has seen increased investment in the uk games sector, so much so that developers are hiring new staff in large numbers. marc cieslak reports on the games industry's expansion. the uk games industry has experienced massive success in the last 12 months. one example of this is developer based in east london's olympic park, it's grown as a business so much, it's moving to new, bigger offices. so this area here is where programmers and artists will be. it's very much been set up for a new way of working. as a studio, we've been going forjust under 30 years. originally started in two kids�* bedrooms in shropshire. since then, we've grown to 200. in london's brick lane, the games might be on a smaller scale, like this mobile title mochi

from indie developer love shark, but expansion is occurring here too. so we've been around for about three years now, and we make games for teenage girls. so these days 84% of teenage girls play video games. it's actually more popular of a hobby than shopping. so we've doubled the size of our team in the last year. during covid, gaming has seen a huge boom. this has led to massive financial success. last year, the uk games market generated £7 billion — up nearly 30% on the year before. as the jobs market is left reeling from the effects of the covid—19 pandemic, could a career in video games beckon for many? and are people equipped with the right skills for a career in the industry? the unfortunate reality is that there is a skills gap. there are lots ofjobs that people could retrain to be looking to do. if you've worked in sales, with the kind of mind that you've got, that's constantly looking at numbers and looking

at targets, and analysing those to find out who you need to be calling to sell to, retrain to be a data analyst, because it's not just games that need more data analysts, it's every company in the uk needs more people looking at data. as big as the video games industry is, can it really have a significant impact on the uk jobs market? it's a relatively small portion of overalljobs. if you supportjobs across a number of sectors, obviously that builds up to a bigger number. i think it's legitimate to have a strategy that focuses on specific industries. a source of entertainment and employment, video games are a truly successful 21st—century combination of art, commerce and technology. now on bbc news, the travel show. coming up on this week's show: we are going to go into freefall.—

once—in—a—lifetime destinations. so rich in culture, scenery, wildlife, share life force, is one of those places that once you visit, you never quite forget. so week we are taking a look back at some of our favourite travel show adventures in brazil, argentina, chile and peru. so stick around, and who knows, maybe get some inspiration for the next time we can all travel again. let's kick off with a stick —— trip to chile but krista met in 2016 where she met the servers fighting to save their favourite set of coastline from developers, against a backdrop of some truly awesome pacific waves. i have arrived here in a particular good time because what has gone around that this morning because maxwell will be unusually strong with waves of “p unusually strong with waves of up to 30 feet. these huge waves have been tracked all the way from antarctica, and have drawn

out locals and people from across the world to watch them come in and crash against these rocks. if you look really carefully out there, what looks like little birds bobbing on the surface of the water, are surfers taking on these gargantuan waves at the risk of their lives. it's pretty incredible. everyone keeps talking about how amazing these waves are, so i've got on my wetsuit, about to jump on a surfboard and try it out for myself. my teacher is chacha, a local who introduces novices to the art of surfing every day. i suspect, however, that he's used a rather ——used to rather more coordinated students. it turns out surfing is definitely not as easy as it looks.

i got whacked in the face with about ten waves in a row, so i've swallowed most of that water, i think. it was super fun, thank you. 0k. gracias. but despite its idyllic appearance, this place is not all paradise. in fact, it's been the site of a battle between local private interests and conservationists. until recently, punta de lobos was relatively unknown, but over the past couple of decades, its popularity has soared as a surfing and a tourist destination. these days, 5,000 visitors arrive to the point daily during summertime. perhaps not surprisingly, this has attracted developers, keen to capitalise on the area's newfound popularity. much of the coast is in the hands of private owners,

and plans were made for extensive building along the cliffs. matias is a director of the punta de lobos foundation — a non—profit organisation created among locals to fight the development plans. along with other conservation bodies, such as save the waves, they've worked to halt shoreside construction and to keep the cliffs open to the public. but that was only their first challenge. it was a mess here. if you put 1,000 or 1,500 cars here, you could take an hour, 1.5 hours to just go a mile out back to the highway. and the second thing is that there were no bathrooms here, so people would do their needs in the cliffs, in wherever, and this would be very dirty. the foundation responded

by regulating the traffic with a roundabout and installing eco bathroom facilities, along with a recycled fence along the cliff line to protect it from the erosion of visitors' feet. as a landmark conservation case for chile — one that could have a much broader impact than just protecting one favoured surfing spot. krista and she lay back in 2017. and i am pleased to say that the campaign to protect the punta de lobos is still going strong. while we will wait to find out if this year's postponed olympics are still going ahead in tokyo, and

thereafter the last olympics in brazil, we went to the high hills of rio to meet some of the locals and try his hand at giving some of them a haircut. we got the place! at}!!! giving some of them a haircut. we got the place!— we got the place! off to heaven- _ we got the place! off to heaven. this _ we got the place! off to heaven. this is - we got the place! off to - heaven. this is unbelievable. this is a sprawling favela sitting high on the hills of rio. overlooking the city. i live in that building, i live on the left side.— live in that building, i live on the left side. since the financial _ on the left side. since the financial downturn, - on the left side. since the | financial downturn, favelas here have seen a spike in volatility. tourists are recommended to go and organise groups like this. this recommended to go and organise groups like this.— groups like this. this is our electricity _ groups like this. this is our electricity system, - groups like this. this is our electricity system, i - groups like this. this is our electricity system, i don't l electricity system, i don't know how, but it works. fiur know how, but it works. our tour guide — know how, but it works. our tour guide edison, _ know how, but it works. our tour guide edison, grew up in this favela. it is not a tourist place. - this favela. it is not a tourist place. of- this favela. it is not a l tourist place. of course this favela. it is not a - tourist place. of course there

the competition happens in two parts. one for the best cut, and the other more artistic creations. i can't believe this guy is actually trusting me to cut his hair. here we go. all right. like this? like that. before you are a barber, what was your life like? three, two, one, there we go! clearly a natural? thank you very much. you have got to

admit, ayo was pretty nifty with those clippers, but not sure i am ready to let him anywhere near my hair yet. we are now heading to argentina way back in 2019 mark got the chance to swim with some pretty unusual companions. 0k! ok! different experience to have a salon, let me tell you right now. ——a different experience to having a saddle on, let me tell you that right now. woo! omar, there's a crocodile right there, should we be worried? un cocodrilo, una caiman... no importa, eh? "don't worry about it." "don't worry about it,

that's what we do." as the river deepens, and the horse can't reach the bottom, the trick is to slip off and hold on for the ride. now? ok, so, right hand, no, left hand here? right hand behind, grab the tail... oh, and we're away! laughs. this is one of the craziest things i've done in my entire life. the water doesn't taste very good. and there's miscellaneous things — some slimy, some spiky — rubbing against most of my body. almost having my arm attached like a moving train! horse nickers. they're strong animals, even in the water. woo! omar, we made it! good job!

what a truly amazing experience. now unless you are afraid of crocodiles and water, i guess. stay with us because coming up, more from mike in argentina when he got up close with some of the localjaguars. then you make eye contact with the best this size your heart just goes- - -_ the best this size your heart 'ust noes... �* ., , just goes... and carmen accept that the chance to abseil down one of the largest waterfalls in the world in paroo. the waterfall _ in the world in paroo. the waterfall is _ in the world in paroo. the waterfall is so _ in the world in paroo. the waterfall is so close! - in the world in paroo. the waterfall is so close! this | in the world in paroo. iia: waterfall is so close! this is amazing!— waterfall is so close! this is amazinu! ~ ., ., ~ ~' amazing! well, or from mike aaain amazing! well, or from mike again now — amazing! well, or from mike again now in _ amazing! well, or from mike again now in this _ amazing! well, or from mike again now in this look- again now in this look back at some of ourfavourite some of our favourite travel show adventures in south america. here is the time he came face—to—face with one of the most beautiful and the most dangerous animals on the continent during that visit to the birrer wetlands in

argentina. —— ebr. welcome to estancia, san alonso, the island home of rewilding argentina — a project aiming to re—introduce jaguars to the wild. oh my... guys, this is... when you make eye contact with a beast this size, your heartjust goes... imiates heart thumping. she's isa, she's a brazilian panther, orjaguar. she's about six years old. yeah, she's quite young. and how will the wetlands benefit from introducing this beautiful animal? well, these animals were part of this ecosystem.

they have been here for hundreds and thousands of years. they disappeared from the wetlands and now, this ecosystem is lacking from this top predator. and under the supervision of magali, the co—ordinator, i'm allowed into the enclosure to prepare isa's meal. ok, we've got one hanging fish, we've got one piece of mystery meat. ready to go? 0k. she looks a little bit — a little annoyed. normally, i don't think food arrives this late. blows whistle. wow, ok, look, here she comes.

we've hung the fish up, let's see if she can find it. 0h! that's a predator, ladies and gentlemen. wow! and breakfast is served. talia, this jaguar is not going to be put back in the wild? no, she was donated to our project as a breeder. these animals that come from captivity, they cannot be released. as you saw, they relate humans with food, so if they live free and saw a human, they would go directly to ask for food, and that's not what we want. talia hopes isa will breed with their other captive jaguar, a reclusive male called nahuel. nearby, two cubs born to another female are being prepared for release. and i'm going to ask a question that i'm sure everyone at home, including myself, wants to know the answer to.

can we see a babyjaguar? no, i'm sorry to tell you we won't see one. but there are some here? yes, they are just right behind us, but they're in another special enclosure where you will see some black meshes, so they can't see people, they don't relate but we can see them with the cameras. this is a female and she's in her swimming pool. is this — this is one right here? yeah, it's there, yeah. you can see — you have a good eye! thank you! and when they are released, what do you hope will happen? well, we are all very anxious to get to that moment. we expect them to stay close to this place, to the protected area, to find their food here and their home here.

we expect them to reproduce and have more cubs, and it will be successful if that happens. i think it will be time to say that the ibera ecosystem is complete again, as it used to be in the past. including the cubs, a total of five jaguars are set for release, signalling the return of the wetlands' most iconic beast. and if you want to keep track of the process, —— progress, rewilding argentina posts regular updates on its social media pages. mike there in argentina. we were desperate to find out whether they managed to release those beautiful baby jaguars, despite such a difficult year. i'm pleased to say it's good news. , i'm pleased to say it's good news, , , ., i'm pleased to say it's good news. _ ., news. so this year in january we released _ news. so this year in january we released the _ news. so this year in january we released the first - news. so this year in january we released the first jaguarsj we released the first jaguars

america, finish up in paroo where back in 2016 carmen literally took a step often unknown and she abseil down the side of one of the tallest waterfalls in the world —— peru. seriously, five years on, there are still parts of this film that ijust cannot watch. it looked absolutely terrifying! so this is where it starts. i'm going to rappel down here, down this little waterfall, about ten or 12 metres into a pool, and from there we will abseil down the rest of the waterfall which is about a 70 metre drop. and i'm one of the first people to do this. before we can start, the team must meticulously anchor a system of ropes into the rock face. then it is my turn to prepare. neverthat face. then it is my turn to prepare. never that glamorous getting into a wetsuit but i will be glad of it because this water scolding to remain —— this water looks cold! i'm

last part of the descent and i'm so relieved to finally get to the bottom. i know it's crazy, i didn't expect so much water! that was amazing! what a rush! . , water! that was amazing! what a rush! tag! hi five. the cold rush! yay! hi five. the cold and the _ and the terror disappear, unlucky to be one of the few people to experience this wilderness while it is still a bit of a secret from the outside world. carmen enjoying those absolutely amazing views over the peruvian amazon on backin over the peruvian amazon on back in 2016. well, that's all we've got time for this week, but catch us next week when

it's likely to be a dry day for most of the united kingdom today, but there will be contrasts. where we keep the cloud, as we had yesterday, temperatures will be held into high single figures but in the sunshine, potentially 14—15. now, under the starry skies, that's where we see the frost as we start this saturday morning but you can see the thicker cloud across northern scotland, central and eastern england, perhaps east wales, and there could also be a little bit of mist and fog where we've kept the clear skies as well but the day is likely to give us quite a bit of cloud across central and eastern areas. it's likely to lift a little as we go through the day and the skies brighten. similarly so across northern scotland, we keep quite a bit. for the likes of lincolnshire, east anglia and the south east, though, it could remain overcast all day. and with that keen breeze still quite gusty through the channel, only eights and nines, but 13—15 in the sunnier spells. now, as we go through the evening and overnight, we tend to thicken our cloud in the north, but under the starry skies elsewhere, again we can expect a touch of frost. but you may have noticed the approach of some rain for the north of scotland, and that's the start

of the transition to much colder air. it's this particular weather front here, as you can see, and behind it, there's arctic air following. so, we are going to have another blast of cold air as we head through in towards easter monday, but for sunday, easter day, a little bit of mist and fog around. actually, we should see a bit more sunshine for england and wales, but cloudier skies with rain for scotland followed by snow and cloudier skies for northern ireland. eventually, we'll see some of that wet weather coming in through the afternoon. but notice the temperatures — we've lost that keen north—easterly, they're a little bit higher, temporarily. but overnight sunday into monday, that weather front introduces that colder air right the way across the uk, an arctic blast for all of us — and notjust the cold air, but a strong to gale force north wind, as well, which will accentuate the chill. clearly, the showers are quite prevalent for northern scotland but they may well work their way down through the irish sea, down the east coast of both england and scotland as well, but there should be some sunshine between, but itjust will feel much colder — more like winter. these are the temperatures

on the thermometer but you add on that wind chill and it will feel significantly colder. so big changes afoot, and that may well last into the start of the new week into tuesday, as well, as you can see. as ever, you can keep up to date on the weather on the website. that's where all the warnings are. bye— bye.
