the points, and i think well deserved. we played an amazing first half and the second half we suffered in the first 15 minutes of the quality and we did not come out of the dressing room with the same intensity, like in the first half. so we suffered instantly from their quality and physicality, but we came back strong. congratulations to watford fans at this moment, they confirm that their promotion back to the premier league. these were the scenes in the dressing room — after watford beat millwall i—o yesterday. they'll be returning to the top flight along with norwich, who beat qpr — but couldn't secure the title because of watford's win. hibernian are the first team through to the scottish cup semi—finals after they beat motherwell in a thriller. hibs had led 2—0 but squandered it and the game ended up going to penalties — ryan porteus with the decisive spot kick. rangers play stjohnstone and aberdeen are up against dundee united today. in the women's super league, bristol city have kept alive their hopes of avoiding relegation. they fought back from 2—0 down to draw 2—2 with fellow

correspondentjohn murray. there are some big announcements in the team, whether harry kane will be fit to play in this match which is obviously a very significant from a tottenham point of view and whether kevin de bruyne will be fit to play and also sergio aguero, he has had five matches out, leaving manchester city at the end of the season, we have the extraordinary situation whereby a young man, 29 years old, ryan mason, will manage the team in only his second match in the job after the sacking ofjose mourinho at the start of the week. that is a very unusual position for him to be in. in a row after beating france at twickenham stoop. there was only one try in the 10—6 victory which was scored by poppy cleall

who's features editor at the independent, and sian griffiths, who's education editor at the sunday times. good morning, both of you. we have got plenty of good stuff to talk about, let's look first of all at what is on the front pages. it is being dominated by the fallout from the row between dominic cummings and downing street, the sunday telegraph says downing street insiders are fearful of dominic cummings releasing emails and memos from his time in government. the mail on sunday carries counter—claims from downing street regarding mr cummings�* behaviour. the pm doesn't follow protocol by using an encrypted mobile phone, according to allegations in the sunday mirror. the observer says labour are aiming to grill a senior tory minister in parliament, over the growing sleaze crisis. it also has a striking image of those fires in county down. and an exclusive for the sunday express, which says the government have made a new order of pfizerjabs to help avoid an autumn lockdown.

let's go straight to james and sian, as i said at you can see, clearly dominic cummings stuff is nominating, i wanted to pick up in particular on the front page on the mail on sunday. number ten rages at nasty sexist dominic cummings says the headline. i wanted to pick up on some comments in the observer which give a very colourful depiction of how it is being seen inside number ten to an extent. the paper says, as word spread in downing street of a coordinated plan to accuse dominic cummings of a string of damaging leaks of insiders was bafflement, quickly followed by dread, decision had been made to poke the bear and it was hard to see what a good outcome would look like. it is crazy

said one insider of the plan, another tory strategist was more blunt, it is beyond moronic, and one senior mp, the paper says, noted, they have obviously not watched the terminator. quite a fight to pick! who wants to go first? it terminator. quite a fight to pick! who wants to go first?— terminator. quite a fight to pick! who wants to go first? it seems to me they are _ who wants to go first? it seems to me they are really _ who wants to go first? it seems to me they are really taking - who wants to go first? it seems to me they are really taking a - who wants to go first? it seems to me they are really taking a huge . me they are really taking a huge risk here, i understand why in the telegraph says there is fear and loathing in downing street. if you kick a hornets nest you will get stung and there is nobody more stinging and vicious than dominic cummings when he is aroused. that is the suggestion this mail on sunday headline is a classic dead cat strategy to try and distract from the original allegations but to me it seems absurdly risky. dominic cummings is somebody who kept copious notes, carried a box out when he left downing street and people speculate what treasure trove

he may have to use against the government. they are calling him nuclear dom in downing street. he is a man you don't want to cross. sign. a man you don't want to cross. sian, what do you — a man you don't want to cross. sian, what do you think _ a man you don't want to cross. sian, what do you think is _ a man you don't want to cross. sian, what do you think is the _ a man you don't want to cross. sian, what do you think is the strategy, is that one or have they waded into something that is deeper than they imagine? i something that is deeper than they ima . ine? ~ , something that is deeper than they imauine? ~ , ., imagine? i think it is all getting completely _ imagine? i think it is all getting completely out _ imagine? i think it is all getting completely out of _ imagine? i think it is all getting completely out of control - imagine? i think it is all getting completely out of control and i | completely out of control and i think_ completely out of control and i think the — completely out of control and i think the really interesting question will be what does dominic cummings— question will be what does dominic cummings come up with. he is due to appear— cummings come up with. he is due to appear before a select committee of mps this_ appear before a select committee of mps this week and i think people in downing _ mps this week and i think people in downing street are very worried about _ downing street are very worried about what people say, in particular in relation _ about what people say, in particular in relation to that second lockdown in relation to that second lockdown in last— in relation to that second lockdown in last year— in relation to that second lockdown in last yearand in relation to that second lockdown in last year and who was opposed to that and _ in last year and who was opposed to that and exactly what was said. there _ that and exactly what was said. there are — that and exactly what was said. there are stories swirling around in the papers — there are stories swirling around in the papers that he may be talking about _ the papers that he may be talking about some rather inflammatory comment— about some rather inflammatory comment made around the time of the

sometimes a favourite gold wallpaper, are we going to get the gold wallpaper gate here at family —— that finally brings down the government. it does nothing to instill confidence in public life. borisjohnson instill confidence in public life. boris johnson says instill confidence in public life. borisjohnson says people do not give a monkey's about it but i think they do because it undermines trust in the system, and that is vital. let's move on to what might happen injune, we have the date of the end ofjune, 21st, when restrictions are supposed to end but there has been debate around what happens then and the sunday telegraph has an open letter calling, publishing an open letter calling, publishing an open letter signed by 22 leading scientists and academics which says a good society cannot be created by an obsessive focus on a single cause of ill—health and they want all social distancing to be abolished to enable people to take back control of their own lives. sian, what are

your thoughts on this? in particular, what is happening in india is a kind of, it is in the background for us as a sign of how quickly things can turn around. yeah, i mean, iam interested in yeah, i mean, lam interested in this story — yeah, i mean, lam interested in this story. we've seen it recurring since _ this story. we've seen it recurring since the — this story. we've seen it recurring since the start of the pandemic, scientist. — since the start of the pandemic, scientist, some scientists, scientists divided on the issue. there — scientists divided on the issue. there are — scientists divided on the issue. there are some scientists who think iockdowns _ there are some scientists who think lockdowns do more damage than good. and you _ lockdowns do more damage than good. and you have to weigh up the terrible — and you have to weigh up the terrible things that are happening such as _ terrible things that are happening such as to— terrible things that are happening such as to education 0tley mental health— such as to education 0tley mental health of— such as to education 0tley mental health of the nation and you have balance _ health of the nation and you have balance that against the death toll from covid if one does not lockdown. some _ from covid if one does not lockdown. some of— from covid if one does not lockdown. some of the signatories on this letter— some of the signatories on this letter are — some of the signatories on this letter are familiar, carl hennigan from _ letter are familiar, carl hennigan from oxford university, robert dingeii. — from oxford university, robert dingell, they have been consistently

just because at the moment we are doing _ just because at the moment we are doing relatively better than we were in the _ doing relatively better than we were in the uk _ doing relatively better than we were in the uk does not mean the situation _ in the uk does not mean the situation will continue. james. _ situation will continue. james, i guess people, even if it is not mandated to wear a facemask, people have got used to it to an extent and take comfort from that level of protection, i wonder how long many of us will continue winning them out of choice. absolutely. —— continue wearing them out of choice. sian is right, you can'tjust wean out of choice. sian is right, you can't just wean yourself off out of choice. sian is right, you can'tjust wean yourself off it overnight, you have to have a very slow and long process of becoming accustomed to life without masks. we are using it almost as a psychological prop now. it shows not only we care about ourselves but more importantly that we care about society and that's the problem i

have with the antique facemask demonstrations taking place. they are saying almost i don't care about other people —— the antique to me that is just selfish and that sends a very bad message. i think if we carry on using masks for as long as we can, i have no problem with that and i think it sends an altruistic message that we should all embrace. tote altruistic message that we should all embrace-— altruistic message that we should all embrace. ~ ., ., all embrace. we mention india, the sunday times _ all embrace. we mention india, the sunday times has _ all embrace. we mention india, the sunday times has an _ all embrace. we mention india, the sunday times has an extraordinaryl sunday times has an extraordinary statistic, already bad enough in india, 350,000 cases every day, the sunday times along with a very dramatic picture says it is braced for 500,000 infections per day, the report saying the crisis may have a further two weeks to run before the predicted peak of half a million cases a day. inside, in the editorial, reminding us how quickly this has turned around saying it is

a far cry from a few weeks ago when india claimed to have beaten the virus. borisjohnson was supposed to travel to the country and visit the facility that is crucial to vaccine supply. facility that is crucial to vaccine supply, trip was cancelled in india was added to the red list of countries. sian, you mentioned that being the element in the background for us to look at, but it is difficult going forward to not be held back by fear but also to be very conscious of how quickly situations can turn. yes, absolutely. and also it is a global— yes, absolutely. and also it is a global pandemic and went the sign to say what _ global pandemic and went the sign to say what we need to do is get the vaccine _ say what we need to do is get the vaccine out — say what we need to do is get the vaccine out across the world, and not just _ vaccine out across the world, and not just to — vaccine out across the world, and not just to the rich countries, that is obviously — not just to the rich countries, that is obviously true —— when the scientists— is obviously true —— when the scientists say. looking at the figures — scientists say. looking at the figures in _ scientists say. looking at the figures in india, that brings it home — figures in india, that brings it home the _ figures in india, that brings it home the scale of this tragedy. the photograph is terrible. it shows the

for richard miller, known as c, the new head of m16 —— richard moore. he said the mission is to spy on china pots pollution levels. it's one of those things obviously we note this spine happens but i guess the level of openness, what do you make of that —— we know that spying happens. great scoop by the sunday times. it shows the level of threat posed by climate change. it is absolutely right that mi6 is spying on countries not fulfilling their obligations. last week the us, this country and the eu all made a very specific commitments, china did not make a specific commitment to reducing climate change and that is worrying. the other aspect is the slightly comical idea ofjames bond

turning into a sort of green campaigner, will he now wears sandals and order a green keen whilst moving... it is absolutely vital we are aware of the threat and monitoring companies that do not take it seriously because this, let's be serious, is the biggest threat to the planet and we have to keep our very original and i own it. sian, i know it is your paper's the story but we are running out of time. well done on the scoop and i want to move on to the next study which is the sunday telegraph, i like this one, students must be taught how to disagree well. in the time of cancelled culture we have a warning in the paper here from the vice chancellor of university couege vice chancellor of university college london, doctor michael arthr, saying students need to be

taught how to disagree with each other, the core issue he says is be forgotten how to disagree well, practising the norms of disagreeing well and not making an enemy of other people and trying to work towards common ground our core intellectual skills. towards common ground our core intellectualskills. do towards common ground our core intellectual skills. do you think these skills have been lost notjust by students but by lots of us? i by students but by lots of us? i think they are skills being lost and definitely— think they are skills being lost and definitely in universities this is a very hot— definitely in universities this is a very hot issue. one of the points michael— very hot issue. one of the points michael arthur makes is when ucl was founded _ michael arthur makes is when ucl was founded in— michael arthur makes is when ucl was founded in 1826 people had to be founded in1826 people had to be taught— founded in 1826 people had to be taught how to learn the art of having — taught how to learn the art of having a _ taught how to learn the art of having a good coffee room debates and now _ having a good coffee room debates and now students have to be taught how to _ and now students have to be taught how to debate in a civilised fashion online _ how to debate in a civilised fashion online as _ how to debate in a civilised fashion online as well as a face to face. in universities — online as well as a face to face. in universities we've seen some terrible — universities we've seen some terrible rows and arguments in recent— terrible rows and arguments in recent years with students trying to no platform speakers with whose views _ no platform speakers with whose views they disagree. amber rudd, for instance. _ views they disagree. amber rudd, for instance, was no platforms at oxford

story about lack of recognition for films this year according to some research in early. the most nominated film mank has only 15% recognition amongst people asked about it. i wondered from you both, are you going to be watching, have you enjoyed the films this year? what are your thoughts? i will be watching, i write quite a lot about the arts and i think it's a fascinating list with some tremendous films. the acquisition it is very worthy and take it to use this word because it's such a trigger word for people, but it is very woke, lots of the subject seem to touch on subject people deem woke. it's interesting to so many british people are playing americans. eight out of four nominees are playing american characters and they are doing it really well, the one exception might be sasha baron cohen who is a brilliant comic actor but the expert

that the sunday times has found said his accent is more worcester, uk and worcester, massachusetts. all the brits are far better than dick van dyke, anyone old enough to remember is a legit cockney in mary poppins will be delighted that the brits are in a different league from that accent. sian, very quickly, tell us your thoughts. i sian, very quickly, tell us your thoughts— thoughts. i think it is great we have more _ thoughts. i think it is great we have more british _ thoughts. i think it is great we | have more british nominations thoughts. i think it is great we - have more british nominations this year since — have more british nominations this year since any time since 2002. i 'ust year since any time since 2002. i just really— year since any time since 2002. i just really hope some of these names. — just really hope some of these names, carrie mulligan, sasha baron cohen. _ names, carrie mulligan, sasha baron cohen. gary— names, carrie mulligan, sasha baron cohen, gary oldman, i hope some of them _ cohen, gary oldman, i hope some of them win— cohen, gary oldman, i hope some of them win tonight, that would be fantastic — them win tonight, that would be fantastic. i should say i've seen trial— fantastic. i should say i've seen trial 0f— fantastic. i should say i've seen trial of the chicago seven and it is brilliant _ trial of the chicago seven and it is brilliant. even though we don't rate sasha _ brilliant. even though we don't rate sasha baron cohen a's accent in the sunday— sasha baron cohen a's accent in the sunday times today, i thought he .ave sunday times today, i thought he

this is bbc world news. i'm joanna gosling. our top stories... india's prime minister narendra modi says the surge in coronavirus cases has shaken the nation — his comments come as the country hits a record number of new cases for the fourth day in a row. pressure grows on the prime minister over his flat refurbishment — labour calls for the government to face mps. the government has to answer to why they had given up the ends of pounds of money to their cronies and their friends and they will not even declare it through the current laws. but the government has denied claims that borisjohnson broke the rules of refurbishing his downing street flat.

everything has
