later this morning. good morning. many building boom. sales of toys are soared during the pandemic and a third of them were sold to adults. i am finding out about the firm is cashing in here on breakfast this morning. novak djokovic sets up a french open semifinal with rafael nadal. but he was celebrating alone after beating matteo berrettini because, the match had earlier stopped to get fans out before the paris curfew. good morning. ifell good morning. i fell cloudy good morning. ifell cloudy start good morning. i fell cloudy start to the day to day but the cloud should and break—in parts, especially across central and eastern areas where there will be more sunshine, but windy across the far north—west. all the details in ten minutes. it's thursday the 10th ofjune. our top story. the us presidentjoe biden is in cornwall today, where he'll meet with borisjohnson in advance of the g7 summit of world leaders.

they'll discuss the re—opening of travel between the uk and us — and the need to maintain peace in northern ireland. our diplomatic correspondent paul adams reports on the historic meeting. it's not every day the american president comes calling. joe biden, accompanied by his wife, touching down in newquay late last night. a warm welcome at the start of a complex, challenging week of diplomacy. earlier at raf mildenhall, a chance to mingle with american troops and set out his stall. i'm heading to the g7, then to the nato ministerial and then to meet with mr putin to let him know what i want him to know. america, he said, was back — ready to work with allies to tackle coronavirus and climate change, and prove that democracies still work in the face of 21st—century challenges. mr biden sits down with boris johnson later today.

the president says america's relationship with britain is still special. the prime minister says this is a big moment. don't forget, this is the first time in six months in office almost thatjoe biden, the us president, has been able to come overseas for a major trip. it's his first time on the european continent. it's the first time any of us really have been able to to see each other face—to—face since the pandemic began. and the pandemic, let's face it, was a pretty scratchy period for the world. downing street is talking of a new atlantic charter, modelled on the 1941 joint statement in which winston churchill and franklin roosevelt set out their vision of a post—war world. it sounds lofty, but includes more immediate objectives — like opening up travel between the us and uk as soon as possible. borisjohnson will also seek to reassure his guest that a row over sausages

and the northern ireland protocol does not threaten the good friday agreement. american officials say their concern runs very deep. paul adams, bbc news. the prime minister borisjohnson has given his most downbeat assessment yet of whether the remaining coronavirus restrictions in england will be lifted onjune the 21st. he said it's clear that covid cases are rising and hospitalisations are increasing — and that the government is still working to establish whether vaccines had built up enough protection within the population. here's our political correspondent helen catt. it's a week and a half until the legal caps on how many people can meet up in england could be lifted, places like theatres and nightclubs could reopen, and big weddings could be back. for weeks, ministers have said they could see nothing in the data to suggest that those things can't happen onjune the 21st. but the mood among some in government is now more downbeat. on a visit in cornwall yesterday,

the prime minister himself sounded more gloomy. i think what everybody can see very clearly is that cases are going up, and in some places hospitalisations are going up. and i think what we need to assess is the extent to which the the vaccine roll—out — which has been phenomenal — has built up enough protection in the population in orderfor us to go ahead to the next stage. and so... and so that's what we'll be looking at. and there are arguments being made one way or the other but we'll be driven by the data, we'll be looking at that and we'll be — as i say, we'll be sitting down on monday. as i say, we'll be setting it out on monday. yesterday, 7,540 new infections were recorded, and six deaths. the number of people in hospital with the virus has risen above 1,000

for the first time since mid—may. the concern is the delta variant of coronavirus. surge testing is being carried out in hotspot areas such as parts of northwest england, and there's a push on vaccines in greater manchester and lancashire. nationally, 40.7 million people have now had their first dose of the vaccine — over 77% of uk adults. and 28.5 million have had both doses — over 54% of uk adults are now fully vaccinated. ministers will be watching closely over the coming days to assess whether the vaccine or the virus is ahead, and if that means the last phase of reopening can happen onjune the 21st or not. helen catt, bbc news. school children in england face a culture in which sexual harassment has become "normalised". that's according to a review by the education watchdog, 0fsted. inspectors spoke to more than 900 young people after thousands of anonymous testimonials were posted online. they found nine out of ten girls reporting incidents of sexist name—calling and being sent unwanted explicit pictures or videos.

being sent unsolicited photographs, pornographic material being circulated that the recipients just don't want to see. all of these kinds of nuisance came through very strongly in all schools and colleges that we visited — notjust in a handful, in all of them. this is a general problem. new research has found huge regional variations in the number of people waiting more than a year for non—urgent surgery across england. castle point and rochford, in essex, had the highest proportion of people waiting over 52 weeks for care — followed by southend and blackpool. nhs england says it has created a £1 billion fund to get services back to pre—covid levels. the health secretary, matt hancock, will face questions from a group of mps this morning to defend his record in handling the coronavirus pandemic. the health select committee is expected to quiz him over an accusation from the prime minister's former chief adviser, dominic cummings, that he was "disastrously incompetent". mr hancock denies the claim and says he has been guided

by the science throughout. if you look up to the skies later this morning — and the clouds stay away — you may see part of the sun blocked out by the moon. that's because an annular eclipse is due to take place — it's where the moon will pass directly in front of the sun but not completely block out its light. 0ur science correspondent rebecca morelle explains. it's one of nature's most dazzling sights — the moon casting its shadow across the sun. the northernmost parts of the world — canada, greenland and siberia — will be treated to the full eclipse, and it's a special solar event, known as an annular eclipse. an annular eclipse happens when the moon isjust a little bit further away from the earth, so it looks smaller in the sky. and what you'll be able to see is a sort of ring around the moon.

and so this is why the annular solar eclipses are sometimes known as the ring of fire. they're incredibly beautiful eclipses to spot, as well. but across the uk, we'll get to see some of it — a partial eclipse will be visible with about 20% of the sun obscured in the south of england, to nearly 40% in the shetland islands. so how can you safely watch the eclipse? well, you should never look at the sun directly or through sunglasses, because you can seriously damage your eyes. instead, you can use two pieces of card, one with a little hole in it, to make a projection of the sun. or if you can get hold of a pair of certified eclipse viewers, you can use these to watch the spectacle instead. it will look like the sun is being eaten. now, there may be some sunspots on the sun — these are dark features on the surface of the sun — and they might be visible, too, depending on the techniques that you use to view the partial eclipse. so there is a lot to see.

the partial eclipse will start from about 10am across the uk, finishing two and a half hours later. the hope is the weather stays clear. rebecca morelle, bbc news. if you were lucky enough a little bit later this morning you will see that. �* ,., , that. and we will get some expert advice on how— that. and we will get some expert advice on how to _ that. and we will get some expert advice on how to look _ that. and we will get some expert advice on how to look because - advice on how to look because obviously you don't want to look directly stocking of expert advice on when and how. the queen has been given a new rose — named after the duke of edinburgh — to mark the day that would have been his 100th birthday. the hybrid rose — which is deep pink, dappled with white lines and double—flowered — was created by the royal horticultural society and planted in the gardens at windsor castle last week. the queen described the flower as "lovely" and said it was a very kind tribute. lovely to see the queen out and about in the sunshine. i wonder if

we will all get some sunshine. i think so. there has been talk... good morning to you. talk of a heatwave, technically a heatwave. you could be right, actually. to date not all of us will see the sunshine. we are starting up a quite cloudy note but over the next few days we will see some sunshine around. not much rain in the forecast, just very little, and the heat is building for the weekend, particularly on sunday, when some parts of the south could hit 28, possibly 29 degrees, but even as we travel further north temperatures will be higher than they have been. easily the low to mid 20s. a lot of cloud around this morning, the brightest skies first thing are in parts of the east and south—east, also some mist and fog. through the day the cloud will break up and more it will cease in china. the lion's share will be in central and eastern areas. through the moray firth and ireland, some sunshine, and windy across the fine request where we

have temperatures 16 to 21. around the moray firth come in longer spots of sunshine, 24. top temperature today likely to be 26 around ten hole, as yesterday. for the evening and overnight, a lot of cloud spreading across us. not particularly heavy rain, and it will weaken as we go through the course of the night. these are our night—time temperatures, following a way to 11 to 16 degrees. this rain coming in is courtesy of a cold front. it will feel fresher behind that in the north of scotland, but it will still be quite humid as we push further south. i will have more details and a longer weather forecast in about half an hour, but forecast in about half an hour, but for now back to naga and charlie. that was said particularly warmly, i think, this morning, for thursday morning. that was lovely, thank you. shall we see if it lasts? laughter

of course it will! ., ~ laughter of course it will! . ~ laughter ofcourseitwill! . ., ., sales of model trains, planes, cars and buildings have surged over the past year — as a lot of us had more time on our hands. and it's notjust children who have been buying. ben's at a model railway in buckinghamshire for us. good morning. good morning. look at m six foot good morning. good morning. look at my six foot seven, _ good morning. good morning. look at my six foot seven, i _ good morning. good morning. look at my six foot seven, i feel _ good morning. good morning. look at my six foot seven, i feel like - good morning. good morning. look at my six foot seven, i feel like a - my six foot seven, i feel like a giant at the best of times. this place is not helping. where better to talk about toys than here? we are at bekonscot model village. the oldest in the world, they say, built in 1929. it has been so interesting, all of the winners and losers from this pandemic, but it seems that toymakers have cashed in. they have had a real boom during the pandemic, we have got a bit more time on our hands. but that is also proving to

be good news for the makers, firms and sellers, but also adults because toymakers selling most of their toys toymakers selling most of their toys to kids, you would imagine, but a third of all toys made these days are sold to adults. it is what the industry calls kidults. 0wen was introduced to making models from kits by his dad — but quickly became hooked. i think ithinkl i think i have always been quite a technical— i think i have always been quite a technical person as well as a bit artistic, — technical person as well as a bit artistic, so_ technical person as well as a bit artistic, so i love following the instructions and seeing how parts go together— instructions and seeing how parts go together and building something in 3d. i together and building something in 3d i find _ together and building something in 3d. i find that challenge really enjoyable and fascinating. i really love the _ enjoyable and fascinating. i really love the fact that you can really kind of— love the fact that you can really kind of get stuck in. it requires quite _ kind of get stuck in. it requires quite a — kind of get stuck in. it requires quite a lot— kind of get stuck in. it requires quite a lot of concentration so you are just _ quite a lot of concentration so you are just focused on creating this one thinq — are just focused on creating this one thing. when you are finished with it _ one thing. when you are finished with it you — one thing. when you are finished with it you can look at it and, you know, _ with it you can look at it and, you know. you — with it you can look at it and, you know, you can see all the hard work you've _ know, you can see all the hard work you've out _ know, you can see all the hard work you've put into it and have something physical to display. it is

about the demands they have seen. quite clearly, as well as the toy industry doing pretty well, attractions in general, we know, during lockdown, have struggled. they will be hoping for the lifting of restrictions of course coming up soon, if that timetable goes ahead as planned. that will mean they can get bigger groups for example so we'll talk about that. it's a delight there have been winners and losers of the pandemic and— someone of them. and while some people have faced pretty tough times, it will get a sense of how these places have fared and what lifting of restrictions mean for them. more from me looking like a giant a little later. there have been two observations here in the studio. charlie is concerned you haven't been following the arrows. you have been the wrong way around the park.—

"why so glum?" is the question to the prime

minister from the daily mail. the paper reports three pieces of good news which it says gives a huge boost for the case to end lockdown on 21 june. the daily mirror says it isjoining a campaign to save a pub in lancashire, which needs to be bought by sunday or will be lost. the paper says nearly a fifth of pubs face being closed by august after being devastated by the pandemic. and in the daily record there's a call for school children to be able to watch scotland's euro match on monday when they play the czech republic. "you'll never take our fitba" is the headline. a quick look at one story that has caught my eye in the telegraph. a new telescope is detecting hundreds of mysterious radio bursts from space, prompting a string of theories about where they are coming from. fast radio bursts, very short, intense pulses of radio waves. this

so we celebrate what might have been, and his life, and and i think we try to turn it into something that's that's very positive. i think it's very important to do that. you must miss him. yes. yes, and... but it's been a very difficult year, 18 months, because, i mean, luckily... so last summer, we were able to spend a reasonable amount of time together. but, yes, it's been very difficult during this period, not being able to spend... but then, like so many otherfamilies, you know, we've all been separated and parted. so it has been very difficult for so many people. and, you know, we're no different in that sense. it has now been two months since he died. i wonder how you now reflect on that period of time and how the public responded afterwards. the funeral was... it was an extraordinary day, but it's because it was also very strange. you know, what should have been an occasion for so many people and so many people that, you know, he had touched his

life not being there. it was very strange, coming from the the outside with all the pageantry and the... and then coming into into st george's chapel, especially into the nave, which was completely empty. it was a very moving, very sombre experience. but, gosh, we were blessed with a beautiful day, and i'm just so glad that, you know, that we were able to do that bit at least, and to do it — as this country does it — really, really well. and a lot of people were moved by seeing your mother, as well, in the chapel, sitting alone in her mask. it must have been very difficult for you to not be alongside her and able to comfort her that day. yes, exactly that — and the same for everybody, really, we were all sitting in our family groups — but then that's no different to what so many other families have been experiencing up and down the country throughout this past year. we can't escape the fact that it has been a difficult few months

for the royal family on a number of levels, but particularly around the situation with the duke and duchess of sussex and how that has played out so publicly — that has been difficult. i wonder how you view that now, or how you look at that particular situation. i stay way out. it's much the safest place to be. and do you feel any sadness about how it's played out? 0h, of course, you know, i mean, it's... there are all sorts of issues and circumstances there. but, you know, we've all been through there. we've all had that same spotlight shone on our lives. we've been subjected to massive intrusion, all the rest of it, and we will deal with it in different ways. and we all deal with it in different ways. a new baby for harry and meghan this week — baby lilibet, a name that will be very meaningful for your family. well, wejust wish them all happiness — that's fantastic news. and... yeah, absolutely, i hope they're very happy and... yeah. how would you like your father to be remembered? everybody will have their own memories. he was that sort of larger—than—life person. 0nce met, never forgot. i'm sure!

your royal highness, the earl of wessex, thank you very much. thank you. it is true, of any family member, everyone has their own snippets and idea of what that person and their place in the family. we'll play a longer version of that interview at around 8.10. you're watching bbc breakfast. still to come on the programme... "welcome to newcastle, mr ford." we're used to seeing him in a galaxy far, far away but now the star wars legend harrison ford has been spotted closer to home — in newcastle and north shields. more on that in just over an hour. time now to get the news, travel and weather where you are. good morning, i'm sonja jessup. there've been calls for the government to shut down a quarantine hotel in reading after an outbreak of covid—19.

the local council says penta hotel has been linked to a "significant" number of positive cases. it's understand 44 residents and staff at the site — run by the department for health and social care — have tested positive. the department has yet to comment. the government says thousands of homes will be better protected from flooding across surrey and the surrounding area, after it approved the latest stage of the river thames scheme. many homes and businesses were damaged in serious flooding in 2014. the scheme, costing more than £500 million, includes constructing two new flood relief channels at runnymede and spelthorne. a year on from the black lives matter movement, an illustrator from south london has written a book for children aimed at exploring the experiences young black people face as they're growing up. �*hey you, by dapo adeola, is said to address issues in an honest but hopeful way, and it includes pictures by 19 other black illustrators. i never saw books that represented me as a kid.

for example, i would colour in disney characters to make them look like me. so, for example, cinderella would be brown, ariel would be brown. anything possible so that i could see myself. hi, my name isjoelle avelino and i am a london—based illustrator. it's quite a personal piece, so i related it to a lot to things i was into as a child. it was literallyjust to go wild. as a little girl, i wish i had something like this. while many of us will be enjoying the capital's green spaces in the sunshine, londoners are being asked not to feed the wildlife or get too close. the royal parks charity — which looks after eight of london's open spaces — has launched a campaign urging people to admire animals and birds from afar. let's take a look at the travel situation now. the tube is off to a good start. no reported problems on any of those lines there. and in stockwell, stockwell road is closed between the a3 and a23 following an earlier accident.

time for the weather with elizabeth rizzini. hello, good morning. it's a mild and muggy start to the day — we've seen some rather humid, moist air move through — so it won't be as sunny as it was yesterday. there will be a lot more cloud around and that cloud will tend to be thickening from the west. so, as we head through the morning, still some bright, some limited spells of sunshine — probably best the further east you are. still a chance of seeing the partial solar eclipse, which will peak at 11.13, later on this morning. remember, don't look directly at the sun — even if we do still have sun — but we should see that cloud break up somewhat as we head through the afternoon. there will be some brighter spells, some sunny spells later on through the day. the winds are light, it will stay dry, and temperatures will still peak at around 23 or 24 degrees celsius, particularly in central london. as we head through this evening and overnight, still that rather muggy feel to things, and clear spells. clouding over in time for friday morning. and then on friday, variable amounts of cloud — there will be some sunshine at times. we'll start to lose that rather humid—feeling air by the end of the day. so there will be a lot more sunshine as we head through the weekend, and temperatures will climb.

i'm back in half an hour. now it's back to naga and charlie. bye for now. good morning, and welcome to breakfast with naga munchetty and charlie stayt. coming up on breakfast this morning. the shocking images which show why rail bosses are concerned that the easing of covid restrictions will lead to more incidents of trespass on the tracks. there'll be a partial eclipse of the sun later this morning so we'll be speaking to a sky—gazer with one of the uk's best vantage points — on shetland. and we'll hear how a group of caroline flack�*s friends will be scaling 24 peaks in 24 hours to honour the late tv presenter�*s memory — and to raise money for the samaritans. with 5,000 extra police officers on duty, secret service personnel

on the beaches and warships patrolling the coast, cornwall is having an extraordinary few days — thanks to the g7 summer. but while world leaders are cocooned inside the ring of steel, how is the event affecting local businesses and residents? breakfast'sjohn maguire is in st ives to tell us more. we are crossing to you but using the image of the bay there. it is a beautiful place, but i know that locals are not necessarily terribly happy about how the g7 and the business that goes with this are affecting their daily lives. it’s a affecting their daily lives. it's a com - lex affecting their daily lives. it's a complex picture, _ affecting their daily lives. it's a complex picture, as _ affecting their daily lives. it's a complex picture, as you - affecting their daily lives. it's a complex picture, as you can i affecting their daily lives. it�*s —. complex picture, as you can imagine. 0ne complex picture, as you can imagine. one of the things that struck me being here all week is that normally at the uk when you walk around the park or down the local street all you can hear is people talking about covbid and restrictions and whether or not they have had it and when

things get back to normal. but over the last week here, the conversations about the g7, good and bad, people excited, people concerned, but as the leader start to arrive we will see there has been a lot of talk about the american helicopters that have been flying over, that type of thing, but we will see in a minute how the positives on the negatives of the summit are affecting people. as you say, the harbour is looking beautiful this morning and there is a warship in the bay i spotted and a couple of police boats, and as i was driving down the royal navy bomb disposal teams were heading in the opposite direction towards falmouth as a suspicious package has been found in a hotel, which is where the media centre is, around 20 miles away from st ives. we don't know much about it yet. it's probably nothing but they have just done it out of that sense of caution, really. i think it is an illustration that security has tightened, and there is a heightened

sense of security and people are reacting in different ways. the first group shot of the g7 leaders may not portray them in the most flattering light, but it's certainly eye catching. all of this waste, you know, it needs to be recycled. it needs to be repairable, you know, or it needs to be made to last longer because all this stuff is going into landfill. they are for one use and we've got to get the hang of this situation and find a way of being less wasteful. in a nod to mount rushmore, which depicts former american presidents, this is called mount recyclemore, made of everyday electrical components maligning our disposable culture. if people stick their smartphone in a drawer and get another one, that smartphone could be handed back to these organizations, which redistribute tech that's only a few years old. somebody else can use a relatively new smartphone.

the unedifying edifice looks out across the bay to where the summit talks will take place and carries a clear message. talk to each other, talk to each other and sort this mess out. as the royal navy protects the bay, kat keeps an ever watchful eye on the shoreline. when she's not guarding the beach for the rnli, she's part of the lifeboat crew, which will spend the weekend at the lifeboat station to guarantee they can respond to any emergency. obviously, it's going to take a lot longer to get to the boathouse because of the g7 and police and traffic, etc. so all of us will be there on call, ready to go. cornish businesses have been promised an extra £50 million from the g7 and the chance to beam these beaches around the world. but some in carbis bay itself say the disruption has proved too much. we'd normally have a fully booked restaurant at this time of year. we were full all last week and instead we found that when customers rang to inquire

about booking for that period and we tell them you have to follow four or five—mile diversion, we've been told to expect major disruptions that could take as much as two to four hours to get from here to st ives. unsurprisingly, people are put off coming here. the government's pledged legacies for the environment and for cambourne, penzance and st ives. so, john, this is the edward hayne memorial hospital building, which is what the community is asking for back. where the town's hoping this former hospital could be given to the community. what we'd really like to happen is that the government show the same philanthropy that was shown to our town 100 years ago by edward hayne and his family and gift this building back to the town so we can decide exactly what happens in it next. dear president biden and dr biden... many people are excited that a small town is hosting such big players. 8—year—old zoe's mum,

jennifer, is american, has written to the potus and flotus to say, "join us for a pastie." cornwall is famous for pasties. i was wondering if you'd like to come and get a pasty and ice cream with me and my momma. i think it's not great timing - with covid, but it's really exciting to have the world leaders . here and to show them how beautiful cornwall is. as the leaders arrive in the county, it's now up to the g7 to recognise that beauty and to leave a meaningful legacy for cornwall�*s future. let's have a chat to matthew stevens, and you have been telling me that your family is been involved in fishing for more than hundred years and you have a daughter and granddaughter working for you now. absolutely. the grandparents were fishermen in the harbour in the 18005 fishermen in the harbour in the 1800s and there is a history of fishing in my family and my father

was unfortunately a bad saver —— sailor and came ashore and was a fishmonger. so the family goes back in fishing and fish merchanting. when you sit down and write the autobiography, what do you write about the g7? what chapter does it make? it’s about the g7? what chapter does it make? �* , , . ., ., make? it's very exciting and we are fortunate to — make? it's very exciting and we are fortunate to have _ make? it's very exciting and we are fortunate to have the _ make? it's very exciting and we are fortunate to have the g7 _ make? it's very exciting and we are fortunate to have the g7 here - make? it's very exciting and we are fortunate to have the g7 here and l make? it's very exciting and we are fortunate to have the g7 here and i | fortunate to have the g7 here and i look over my shoulder, look at the harbour and the beach and beyond there is the carbis bay beach, why not st ives or in this area? it's a beautiful part of the world and we are proud to have them here. yes, there are issues about it and i understand that as well, a lot of security and there will be protesters, but i hope we can see the best things of the g7 and the best things for cornwall around the g7. that is what we are looking forward to. g7. that is what we are looking forward to-_ forward to. there will be at -- there will— forward to. there will be at -- there will be _ forward to. there will be at -- there will be a _ forward to. there will be at -- there will be a bit _ forward to. there will be at -- there will be a bit of— forward to. there will be at -- i there will be a bit of short-term there will be a bit of short—term pain for long—term gain. there will be a bit of short-term pain for long-term gain.- there will be a bit of short-term pain for long-term gain. there is a bit of ain pain for long-term gain. there is a bit of pain as _ pain for long-term gain. there is a bit of pain as we _ pain for long-term gain. there is a bit of pain as we have _ pain for long-term gain. there is a bit of pain as we have restricted i bit of pain as we have restricted areas and some people can't come out of their houses unless they are escorted out, but it's minimalfor

go stop questions being asked, why start the match at eight o'clock when the previous match had finished nearly two hours earlier and they could have started then. questions to be asked. it all meant, the fans missed the 4th set conclusion and the moment, when novak djokovic, reached the semi—finals of the french open, beating matteo berrettini. after play had to be, stopped to allow fans to leave as a result of the 11 pm curfew in paris, there was an eerie silence. djokovic, says it had given him a little break, and completed the victory in 4 sets and you can see how much it meant to him, his roars ofjoy, making up for the lack of noise..in the now empty court. he'll face rafa nadal next after the spaniard beat argentina's diego schwartzmann in a tough match. nadal aiming for a record extending 14th title at the french open. england's build up to the second test against new zealand has once after a number of offensive

historical tweets have been discovered by multiple members of the squad. the ecb have said they will be looking into it. this follows 0lly robinson apologising for his racist tweets. joe root says the squad wants to move forward in a positive way. we faced ugly truths and there will be challenges moving forward but the players _ challenges moving forward but the players we have right now are very much _ players we have right now are very much committed to moving the game forward _ much committed to moving the game forward and making it a better place and more _ forward and making it a better place and more inclusive and to educate ourselves— and more inclusive and to educate ourselves further. the delayed european championship gets underway tomorow when italy take on turkey in rome. wales are the first of the home nations in action, they face switzerland on saturday in azerbaijan. whilst england and scotland matches will both see fans in attendance, welsh supporters have been advised not to travel to baku. scotland have arrived at their training camp ahead of their first match on monday against the czech republic at hampden park. we'll hear from the team later today

while england manager gareth southgate, is trying to keep his players relaxed just like at the last world cup, when they were in the pool with inflatable unicorns, and played some ten pin bowling. it looks like the squad have already found, a way to keep themselves entertained at this tournament as jack grealish took on some of the journalists in a game of darts. i think they let him win two keep his confidence up. there he is, looking confident, flexing the shoulders, looking for the bull's—eye. and then again, the press conference saying it was his dream come through. look at the team spirit. a dream come true to play for england. n spirit. a dream come true to play for england-— spirit. a dream come true to play for encland. . . for england. i always get concerned when i see for england. i always get concerned when i see a _ for england. i always get concerned when i see a dark _ for england. i always get concerned when i see a dark bird _ for england. i always get concerned when i see a dark bird and - for england. i always get concerned when i see a dark bird and i - for england. i always get concerned when i see a dark bird and i don't i when i see a dark bird and i don't see a huge blackboard. —— a dart board.

6:42am. carol it is 642. are you there? i certainly icertainly am. i certainly am. good morning to you as well. 0ver i certainly am. good morning to you as well. over the next few days you will notice the heat will continue to build, especially through the weekend went by the time we get to sunday we could hit 28 or 29 degrees, somewhere in the south—east, but for the whole of the uk it will be warmer than it has been. not much rain in the forecast although we have a few fronts flirting with us coming in from the north—west, and that will eventually introduce rain and will slowly sink south, but look at the isobars, particularly windy across the far north—west where we will have gusts of 40 or 45 miles an hour but breezy wherever you are. we have mist and fog first thing, patchy across southern areas and we will find that will lift and there is a lot of cloud which will break in the best of the sunshine is in central and eastern areas and these are the average wind speeds, so gusts will

be higher than that and temperatures ranging from 15 in lerwick and we could see 24 around the moray firth if we see enough sunshine and the crowd breaks up at the top temperature is likely to be in whole where it was 26.4, wearing the warmest part of the uk. it is tempting to the beach, the water is on the nippy side. 11 to about 15 degrees and we see the temperatures peak at the end of september. if you are tempted, you might want to bring are tempted, you might want to bring a hanky because these are the pollen levels, very high across the south—east and a lot of england. low or moderate everywhere else. through the evening and overnight we see a return to a lot of cloud and a weather front coming in from the north—west sinking south and taking the ring with it and it pushes south but it is a cold front so behind it we see pressure conditions overnight but still quite muggy as we push to the south. heading into friday, here

is the same weather front slipping south, a cold front, and it's not going to be particularly active as it goes steadily south, in factjust a few spots of rain and cloud image. the breeze breaking up tomorrow and the temperatures because of the amount of cloud will not be as high and you will also note where the weather front is, to the north of that, temperatures will be lower than they will be today and to the south of it we are still looking at 25 or 26. this weekend high pressure does re—establish itself across the uk so we see a return to settled conditions and also higher temperatures. this is saturday with a lot of dry weather, a bit more cloud coming in from the south—west and turning the sunshine into sunshine with temperatures between 18 and the north and 25 in the south. a lot of dry weather during the course of sunday and a bit more cloud with the weather front and a spot of rain across the far north—west and temperatures, here we

90, north—west and temperatures, here we go, 24 in aberdeen and newcastle, 21 in belfast and 29 in london, way above average for this time of year. it is getting warm. thank you very much. let's return now to one of our top stories — and the growing uncertainty over whether covid restrictions in england will be lifted onjune the 21st. the prime minister said he'll be led by the data — but he also said it's clear that covid cases are rising and hospitalisations increasing. doctor mohit mandiratta is one of our regular gps and hejoins us now from birmingham. good morning to you. how are you? good morning to you. how are you? good morning. very well. how are you? very well. where are you when it comes to the opening date, the potential more easing of restrictions on the 21st ofjune? what are your concerns? we've always been guided by the data and the research out there and i know from what politicians on the government have said is that that is what they will look at in the coming days and

what they have been over the last few weeks. cases were inevitably going to rise as restrictions has eased and we are mixing more, hugging more, meeting in doorand eased and we are mixing more, hugging more, meeting in door and we hear of the delta variant and statistics say it might be between 40 and 60% more transmissible so cases were going to rise, but the big hope is that the vaccinations break the link with the cases in hospitalisations and deaths. 0bviously hospitalisations, particularly in certain areas, are creeping up but we are hearing that those going to hospital are younger and thankfully less seriously unwell but the majority of them are unvaccinated or haven't had both vaccinations, so having completed the course, which shows the effectiveness of the vaccine programme, so it is a plea that if you've not had your vaccine yet and you've not had your vaccine yet and you are eligible, please come forward. , ., , you are eligible, please come forward, , ., , , forward. sorry to interrupt, but what are you — forward. sorry to interrupt, but what are you hearing _ forward. sorry to interrupt, but what are you hearing in - forward. sorry to interrupt, but what are you hearing in terms i forward. sorry to interrupt, but| what are you hearing in terms of younger people when you are talking to them about getting the vaccination, just anecdotally? taste

vaccination, 'ust anecdotally? we had been vaccination, just anecdotally? - had been concerned about hesitancy and complacency but we hadn't seen that at all. we heard on tuesday and i've not been lucky enough to go to glastonbury, but there was a glastonbury, but there was a glastonbury style rush with a million oxidations booked on the tuesday, which is fantastic. 0n the ground, i haven't seen the complacency and hesitancy we might have expected —— a million vaccinations. that is really good news. there are lots of concerns about third wave predictions and we are seeing cases rise, obviously, and hospitalisations and i know you made the point it was younger people in hospital but the fact is if they are in hospital, they are still ill enough to be in hospital. when it comes to a third wave, how concerned are you about that, and in terms of pressure on the likes of you and of course the nhs and hospitals? it is a concern. we are hearing about the waiting list we have got and that's had a an inevitable impact from the fact that a few months ago the

hospitals were full and intensive care was full and doctors and nurses were redeployed and now there is a real focus on trying to catch up with all the elective procedures like joint replacements, with all the elective procedures likejoint replacements, cataract surgeries, hernia surgeries that have been delayed and people are clearly struggling with symptoms and i'm seeing that in the gp practices. time will tell. it's difficult to predict what will happen but we will be guided by the data and the information we have is that the vaccines are extremely affected after both doses against the alpha and delta variant but that is where my plea would be, while we are waiting to complete the vaccine programme, people need to follow the restrictions that are there, the guidance there, hand, space, face, fresher guidance is as important as it always was. there are lots of variables and we have the variance we are concerned about in winter pressures will come in the pandemic is still here and we have to see what happens with cases and hospitalisations. it's going to be interesting to see what decisions are made. thankfully they are above my pay grade and from people a lot

more important than me. the my pay grade and from people a lot more important than me.— my pay grade and from people a lot more important than me. the uk did record another— more important than me. the uk did record another 5740 _ more important than me. the uk did record another 5740 coronavirus - record another 5740 coronavirus cases, the highest daily total since the end of february. a quick word, the end of february. a quick word, the health minister nadine dorries making comment suggesting that women need to be more assertive and insistent when they are talking to gps. how is this panning out when you are having conversations? are you are having conversations? are you conscious that women in particular may feel that they don't push hard enough? i particular may feel that they don't push hard enough?— push hard enough? i think it's difficult to _ push hard enough? i think it's difficult to comment. - push hard enough? i think it's i difficult to comment. personally, push hard enough? i think it's - difficult to comment. personally, as a gp, and we've heard it that women's health is incredibly important and it is an area that's not well researched and well understood and there is a lot of education to be done across the gps and the health sector and more for us to learn about conditions like endometriosis, and we've heard a lot about menopause and there's been a lot of publicity around that. whenever we make a management plan, it's a mutually agreed plan and i

would always want to discuss with my patients what the best way forward is and i give my medical input and give a negotiated plan where both parties are happy. that aspect of medicine has always been there. it's no longer the medicine that it was which was quite paternalistic in a way, it's more of a mutual management plan, but i think education is important and sexism or discrimination in any workplace should not be tolerated and there is a lot of work to be done both in the nhs and other industries to tackle any discrimination and sexism there. doctor, thank you very much, have a good day. there's a partial eclipse of the sun taking place this morning. we might even get to see it — if the clouds stay away. 0ur reporter ben boulos is at the royal 0bservatory in greenwich to tell us more. morning, ben. i know you are keen if anyone has

and businesses in and around surrey that were hit by devastating floods seven years ago have moved forward. hundreds of residents had to be rescued from their properties when the river burst its banks in 2014. the government has approved a business case for the £500 million river thames scheme. but part of the project covering berkshire is no longer going ahead. an illustratorfrom south london has written a book for children aimed at exploring the experiences young black people face as they're growing up. hey you — by dapo adeola — is said to address issues of systematic racism in an honest but hopeful way, and it includes pictures by 19 other black illustrators. i never saw books that represented me as a kid. for example, i would colour in disney characters to make them look like me. so, for example, cinderella would be brown, ariel would be brown. anything possible so that i could see myself. hi, my name isjoelle avelino and i am a london—based illustrator. it's quite a personal piece, so i related it to a lot to things i was into as a child.

it was literallyjust to go wild. as a little girl, i wish i had something like this. while many of us will be enjoying the capital's green spaces in the sunshine, londoners are being asked not to feed the wildlife or get too close. the royal parks charity — which looks after eight of london's open spaces — has launched a campaign urging people to admire animals and birds from afar. travel now. the tube is off to a good start — no reported problems on any of those lines there. and there's a burst water main in wood lane — it's closed between du cane rd and north pole road. time for the weather with elizabeth rizzini. hello, good morning. it's a mild and muggy start to the day — we've seen some rather humid, moist air move through — so it won't be as sunny as it was yesterday. there will be a lot more cloud around and that cloud will tend to be thickening from the west. so, as we head through the morning, still some bright, some limited spells of sunshine — probably best the

further east you are. still a chance of seeing the partial solar eclipse, which will peak at 11.13, later on this morning. remember, don't look directly at the sun — even if we do still have sun — but we should see that cloud break up somewhat as we head through the afternoon. there will be some brighter spells, some sunny spells later on through the day. the winds are light, it will stay dry, and temperatures will still peak at around 23 or 24 degrees celsius, particularly in central london. as we head through this evening and overnight, still that rather muggy feel to things, and clear spells. clouding over in time for friday morning. and then on friday, variable amounts of cloud — there will be some sunshine at times. we'll start to lose that rather humid—feeling air by the end of the day. so there will be a lot more sunshine as we head through the weekend, and temperatures will climb. i'm back in half an hour. plenty more on our website. now it's back to naga and charlie. bye for now. good morning, welcome to breakfast with naga munchetty and charlie stayt. 0ur headlines today.

president biden arrives in cornwall for talks with borisjohnson ahead of the g7 summit. northern ireland, and resuming trans—atlantic travel are high on the agenda. here in cornwall the security cordons are all in place. the ring of steel also at the g7 talking begins. as covid hospitalisations rise, the prime minister strikes a more pessimistic tone about england's reopening onjune 21st. good morning. and many building boom, sales of toys soared during lockdown and a third of them were sold to adults. i am here in buckinghamshire this morning looking at the firms that are cashing in. making up for the sound of no crowd. novak djockovich roars into the semi—finals of the french open but by the time he beat matteo berretini, the five thousand fans had been sent

home because of a curfew in paris. good morning. it is a fairly cloudy start to the day. we hang on to the cloud in western areas with some drizzle coming into the north—west. it will be windy but for central and eastern areas it will brighten up with some one sunshine. full details and about ten minutes. it's thursday the 10th ofjune. our top story. the us presidentjoe biden is in cornwall today, where he'll meet with borisjohnson in advance of the g7 summit of world leaders. they'll discuss the re—opening of travel between the uk and us — and the need to maintain peace in northern ireland. 0ur diplomatic correspondent paul adams reports on the historic meeting. it's not every day the american president comes calling. joe biden, accompanied by his wife, touching down in newquay late last night. a warm welcome at the start of a complex, challenging week of diplomacy.

earlier at raf mildenhall, a chance to mingle with american troops and set out his stall. i'm heading to the g7, then to the nato ministerial and then to meet with mr putin to let him know what i want him to know. america, he said, was back — ready to work with allies to tackle coronavirus and climate change, and prove that democracies still work in the face of 21st—century challenges. mr biden sits down with boris johnson later today. the president says america's relationship with britain is still special. the prime minister says this is a big moment. don't forget, this is the first time in six months in office almost thatjoe biden, the us president, has been able to come overseas for a major trip. it's his first time on the european continent. it's the first time any of us really have been able to to see each other face—to—face

since the pandemic began. and the pandemic, let's face it, was a pretty scratchy period for the world. downing street is talking of a new atlantic charter, modelled on the 1941 joint statement in which winston churchill and franklin roosevelt set out their vision of a post—war world. it sounds lofty, but includes more immediate objectives — like opening up travel between the us and uk as soon as possible. borisjohnson will also seek to reassure his guest that a row over sausages and the northern ireland protocol does not threaten the good friday agreement. american officials say their concern runs very deep. paul adams, bbc news. let's talk more about this with our chief political correspondent adam fleming, who's within the "ring of steel" in st ives. we can see the bay behind you. there

is a lot of security there, and todayit is a lot of security there, and today it is just before the meeting itself starts, a one—on—one meeting between boris johnson itself starts, a one—on—one meeting between borisjohnson and the us president. between boris johnson and the us resident. ., , , president. good morning. yes, sadly because of the _ president. good morning. yes, sadly because of the gloom _ president. good morning. yes, sadly because of the gloom you _ president. good morning. yes, sadly because of the gloom you cannot i president. good morning. yes, sadly| because of the gloom you cannot see the worship station in the bay because of the leaders will be meeting at a hotel which is a little bit around the bay. the meeting of the leaders doesn't start until tomorrow. the meeting we are focusing on today is the first face—to—face conversation between borisjohnson and face—to—face conversation between boris johnson and joe face—to—face conversation between borisjohnson and joe biden. 0n the upside they will be discussing this new atlantic charter based on the documents that churchill and roosevelt signed in 1941, focusing on the challenges the world faces like trade, technology, the promotion of democracy in the face of china and russia, and also the stuff about the travel task force to re—establish travel between the uk

and the us. does that mean that the us will lift its ban on british people entering the us? does that mean that the us will go on the uk's green list where you don't need to quarantine if you come to the uk from there? we don't know and i'm not sure when we will know because the task force is onlyjust starting work now. that is the upside. more of the downside we can expect a slightly tense conversation about what is going on with the brexit deal and particularly the bit to do with northern ireland. us is very worried that the is not sticking to its word that it agreed with the eu, which sees some eu rules continuing to apply in northern ireland. the uk would say they are trying to uphold the good friday agreement because thatis the good friday agreement because that is meant to be protecting trade between great britain and northern ireland as much as trade between northern ireland and ireland. what we will do later on his cheque statements from the two sides that come out after those meetings just

to see, reading between the lines, what went on between the men. for the moment, thank you. the prime minister borisjohnson has given his most downbeat assessment yet of whether the remaining coronavirus restrictions in england will be lifted onjune the 21st. he said it's clear that covid cases are rising and hospitalisations are increasing — and that the government is still working to establish whether vaccines had built up enough protection within the population. here's our political correspondent helen catt. it's a week and a half until the legal caps on how many people can meet up in england could be lifted, places like theatres and nightclubs could reopen, and big weddings could be back. for weeks, ministers have said they could see nothing in the data to suggest that those things can't happen onjune the 21st. but the mood among some in government is now more downbeat. on a visit in cornwall yesterday, the prime minister himself sounded more gloomy. i think what everybody can see very clearly is that cases are going up, and in some places hospitalisations are going up.

and i think what we need to assess is the extent to which the vaccine roll—out — which has been phenomenal — has built up enough protection in the population in orderfor us to go ahead to the next stage. and so... and so that's what we'll be looking at. and there are arguments being made one way or the other but we'll be driven by the data, we'll be looking at that and we'll be — as i say, we'll be setting it out on monday. yesterday, 7,540 new infections were recorded, and six deaths. the number of people in hospital with the virus has risen above 1,000 for the first time since mid—may. the concern is the delta variant of coronavirus. surge testing is being carried out in hotspot areas such as parts of northwest england, and there's a push on vaccines in greater manchester and lancashire. nationally, 40.7 million people have now had their first dose of the vaccine —

over 77% of uk adults. and 28.5 million have had both doses — over 54% of uk adults are now fully vaccinated. ministers will be watching closely over the coming days to assess whether the vaccine or the virus is ahead, and if that means the last phase of reopening can happen onjune the 21st or not. helen catt, bbc news. the health secretary, matt hancock, will face questions from a group of mps this morning to defend his record in handling the coronavirus pandemic. the health select committee is expected to quiz him over an accusation from the prime minister's former chief adviser, dominic cummings, that he was "disastrously incompetent". mr hancock denies the claim and says he has been guided by the science throughout. the queen has been given a new rose — named after the duke of edinburgh — to mark the day that would have been his 100th birthday. the hybrid rose — which is deep pink

and double—flowered — was created by the royal horticultural society and planted in the gardens at windsor castle last week. proceeds from its sale will go to the duke of edinburgh award scheme. the queen described the flower as "lovely" and said it was a very kind tribute. carol has some flowers with her this morning, as well. good morning, what are they? morning, as well. good morning, what are the ? ., g morning, as well. good morning, what arethe? ., g i, are they? neither do i! my eyesight isn't that good. _ are they? neither do i! my eyesight isn't that good, either. _ are they? neither do i! my eyesight isn't that good, either. good - isn't that good, either. good morning. they are very nice and here for a reason. morning. they are very nice and here fora reason. notjust morning. they are very nice and here for a reason. notjust to look at the beautiful sky which is very cloudy at the moment, you can hardly see it, but the flowers remind me that the pollen levels are high in the south—eastern corner and high across much of england. for the rest of the uk, low to moderate levels and a mild start across the board, wherever you are in the uk. liverpool standing out at the moment. we also have some rain in

the forecast, enough cloud to produce some drizzle in northern and western areas, the rain coming into the outer hebrides. through the day it will advance a little bit further south. possibly getting into the northern isles later on and also the west of mainland scotland. if you want to see the eclipse of the best chance you have is in central and eastern areas, but do not look at it with the naked eye. through the day we will see it breaking up grass that marry first. temperatures could get up to 24 degrees. after a cloudy study northern ireland the sun come out and across central and eastern parts of england and wales we will see some sunny breaks. the west always more prone to more cloud, through the evening and overnight thatis through the evening and overnight that is certainly the case. one will see some cloud, a weather front sinks further south as a fairly weak feature and it will not be a cold night by any stretch. most are staying in double figures but feeling fresher behind the weather front in the north. i am off to look at my flowers.

the behaviour policy and sanctions. let's make sure that the whole package really hangs together in sending very strong messages from the very beginning to create the best possible environment for young people to grow up in. so it's about moving from the reactive to the preventive, i think, is the change in emphasis we'd like to see throughout the system. let's speak now to soma sara, who founded the everyone's invited website which sparked that 0fsted report. good morning to you. shall we start first of all, if anyone who doesn't know, everyone's invited, you said to anyone at a school or college who had been affected by so—called rape culture to get in touch, another is mostly if necessary, put down their experiences. what was your reaction to the responses? it

and the acknowledgement but again we are disappointed because, you know, nothing really has changed since 2016. we are just wondering what has happened since then and why we are seeing such high levels of sexual harassment and online sexual abuse now, in 2021. but harassment and online sexual abuse now. in 2021.— now, in 2021. but this report has 'ust now, in 2021. but this report has just come _ now, in 2021. but this report has just come out — now, in 2021. but this report has just come out so _ now, in 2021. but this report has just come out so it _ now, in 2021. but this report has just come out so it is _ now, in 2021. but this report has just come out so it is about i now, in 2021. but this report has i just come out so it is about making change in the future, so do you think enough is being proposed by this report to make the change? j this report to make the change? i think something that could be very, very helpful is acknowledging the importance of anonymity because, as the report very much highlights, there is a huge gap between incidences and reporting and we believe implementing some kind of anonymous system available in schools well actually really help young people and pupils feel able to share and come forward with these experiences. we now have 15,554

testimonies on the everyone's invited website and these are all anonymous testimonies and we just see that it has become abundantly clear that anonymity is very crucial in allowing survivors to share. the nspcc is working with the department for education to provide a bespoke helpline for students who have experienced abuse at school. do you think that is a useful step forward? yes, i do think it is useful. it is very important that all young people and students and pupils should be able to find any help that they can access any help they want or need, and i do believe the nspcc helpline provides this. and i do believe the nspcc helpline provides this-— and i do believe the nspcc helpline provides this. gavin williamson, the education secretary, _ provides this. gavin williamson, the education secretary, said _ provides this. gavin williamson, the education secretary, said that i provides this. gavin williamson, the education secretary, said that this i education secretary, said that this report rightly highlighted work to take urgent action, the 0fsted report, but has said there are wider societal influences at play, meaning schools and colleges cannot be expected to tackle the issues alone.

what do you make of that? yes. expected to tackle the issues alone. what do you make of that?- what do you make of that? yes, i think that this — what do you make of that? yes, i think that this problem _ what do you make of that? yes, i think that this problem is - think that this problem is everywhere and it is in all of society and i don't think the burden should be only placed on the schools. i think everyone has a responsibility in tackling this problem. i think parents also have a huge responsibility in educating their children and this can begin really early on. we can start with just instilling important values such as empathy and boundaries and introducing the concept of consent and i would really like to see schools and parents working more closely together in the future. but i think everyone in society, in all sectors, could be doing a lot better in this area. sectors, could be doing a lot better in this area-— in this area. soma sara, founder of everyone's — in this area. soma sara, founder of everyone's invited, _ in this area. soma sara, founder of everyone's invited, thank - in this area. soma sara, founder of everyone's invited, thank you. i in this area. soma sara, founder of i everyone's invited, thank you. thank ou ve everyone's invited, thank you. thank you very much- _ if you have been affected by any of the issues raised in that interview you can visit bbc.co.uk/actionline for more information. or you can call the bbc action line to hear recorded information on 0800 077 077.

network rail bosses have released cctv footage of children playing on train tracks — and even lying down to take selfies. they say trespassing increased as covid restrictions were lifted — and now they've launched a new campaign to tackle the problem. piers hopkirk has the details. lying on the tracks, seemingly for a selfie — this extraordinary footage taken at a level crossing in eridge near crowborough — two girls potentially risking their lives for likes. children playing on the railway are just not aware of the risks that they are putting themselves in. if you are struck by a train, the consequences are catastrophic. additionally, touching the electric conductor rail will deliver a shock of 750 volts, which is fatal in nearly all circumstances. i implore people to use the level crossings as designed. and here, a group of boys on the

tracks at bewbush in crawley — the speed limit here 85 miles an hour. network rail says the lifting of lockdown has seen incidents of trespass on the tracks increase as restrictions are eased. it's why they've released a new video warning of the dangers. me and rav started chanting, "go... go...go, go, go, go—go—go—go, g0!" and he went for it! last year, there were nearly 3,500 instances of youths trespassing on the tracks across england, scotland and wales. the busiest single month was august, with no fewer than 431 incidents. but it was the ending of lockdown in july that saw the biggest surge, with incidents increasing 40% month—on—month. annually, we see an increase in people misusing the railway, which starts around the easter holidays and goes through to october. this year, that situation has been exacerbated by the covid lockdown, with people venturing out into the countryside

and using level crossings, perhaps for the first time, with no real knowledge of what they should be doing. this is why we've got signage at every level crossing and we want people to read it and obey it. the children in these pictures have received a warning from transport police. their example serves as a sobering warning, too, to others. piers hopkirk, bbc news. jade kenyon died while walking next to a railway near her home in kent in 2006. she was 17. her mum racheljoins us now. very good morning to you. i'm very mindful first very good morning to you. i'm very mindfulfirst up that very good morning to you. i'm very mindful first up that i believe you have an anniversary ofjade's mindful first up that i believe you have an anniversary of jade's death coming up soon, is that right? good mornin: , coming up soon, is that right? good morning. very _ coming up soon, is that right? good morning, very soon, _ coming up soon, is that right? good morning, very soon, within - coming up soon, is that right?

particularly when you have an anniversary coming up. j particularly when you have an anniversary coming up.- particularly when you have an anniversary coming up. i am very mindful of— anniversary coming up. i am very mindful of that _ anniversary coming up. i am very mindful of that as _ anniversary coming up. i am very mindful of that as we _ anniversary coming up. i am very mindful of that as we speak i anniversary coming up. i am very mindful of that as we speak to i anniversary coming up. i am very. mindful of that as we speak to you but i can only imagine what you are thinking as you watch those images of young people taking those risks. it saddens me, it does sadden me. i don't blame young children and young adults, i think everyone has a duty of care to educate. and if we don't know the risks, you don't know you are taking a risk, and generally young children, young adults, they do push the boundaries and they take risks and it is about educating them and showing them the consequence, talking to them, and it needs to be in schools, it needs to be on the tv, it needs to be everywhere because releasing the videos is great, but if it is not filtering through to the youngsters and young adults, and they are not

understanding, they will not stop and i hope not to see another family go through what we went through. you and our go through what we went through. you and yourfamily go through what we went through. you and your family have learnt this in the worst possible way and as we look at these images, i am not sure if you can see them, it really is terrifying what is happening. are you 0k taking us through what happened with jade? you ok taking us through what happened with jade?— you ok taking us through what happened with jade? yeah. i mean, jade was sitting _ happened with jade? yeah. i mean, jade was sitting her— happened with jade? yeah. i mean, jade was sitting her first _ happened with jade? yeah. i mean, jade was sitting her first year - happened with jade? yeah. i mean, jade was sitting her first year of i jade was sitting her first year of a—levels, so she was very understanding. i thought she knew dangers and things like that, but as i've said before, you know, it is not something you think to educate your kids. you tell them to be careful of the roads, all the different safety things you think are about. you tend to forget about the railway because it is not in your mind until something like this happens. she was doing her a—levels,

it was the last day of school, she was out celebrating with a few friends. she was a bit late coming home. we have had a bit upset because i couldn't get hold of her and when i did get hold of her i was quite angry. she missed the last train, so she... that was sort of just a 10pm, i think. she walked along the outside of the railway to walk home and tragically she touched the live rail and i never realised the live rail and i never realised the live rail can be anywhere on that track. it can be the middle, the outside and it is a silent killer. ~ ., , ., ., killer. when i hear you telling that sto , it killer. when i hear you telling that story. it is — killer. when i hear you telling that story, it is heartbreaking. - killer. when i hear you telling that story, it is heartbreaking. do i killer. when i hear you telling that story, it is heartbreaking. do you. story, it is heartbreaking. do you think... we hear about statistics and moments ago and the increase recently, even during the pandemic, of the incidents involving people on

a train right. why is it do you think the message is not getting through? j think the message is not getting throu~h? .. think the message is not getting throu~h? ~ .,, think the message is not getting throu~h? ~ ., ~ through? ithink, as i said, ithink youngsters _ through? ithink, as i said, ithink youngsters feel — through? ithink, as i said, ithink youngsters feel invulnerable, i youngsters feel invulnerable, indestructible. you have a lot of imagery in culture all over the place. tv, games, everything like that. that gives us a false sense of reality. we have all been there, you are young, you take risks, you do silly things. that is not saying it is ok because it is not ok, but i think generally everybody has to have an understanding or understand being young again that you do take risks and you need to understand the youngsters and be able to educate them and tell them about the dangers, and i think it goes up because it is summer, the kids are out, they egg each other on and it is sort of like... it is that

risk—taking but not realising the risks that they are taking. they're sort of sense that they are indestructible and we all get that sense, we don't always realise our own mortality and i think that is particularly when we are young and as i said, you watch images on tv, you watch films, they watch games and you lose that sense of reality, of death, of what those things can do to you. thus of death, of what those things can do to ou. �* . ., of death, of what those things can doto ou. a ., , of death, of what those things can doto ou. a . , ., of death, of what those things can doto ou. . , do to you. as i am listening to you, i'm sure do to you. as i am listening to you, im sure a — do to you. as i am listening to you, im sure a lot— do to you. as i am listening to you, i'm sure a lot of— do to you. as i am listening to you, i'm sure a lot of parents _ do to you. as i am listening to you, i'm sure a lot of parents will- do to you. as i am listening to you, i'm sure a lot of parents will be i i'm sure a lot of parents will be thinking the same, they know exactly what you are talking about and you can almost see the faces of your children when you do give that message about something, at risk of some kind, maybe train lines, maybe traffic, all those things. as you are telling them you can almost see them switching off, it's like another parental warning about something they already know about and i think we have all seen that when we try to pass on that message. which is why i think... when it is

in schools, and i know before when i have been in schools, we have done a bit of a safety talk. general safety talk, notjust included railways, it is about thinking about things on your phone, walking across the road with ear plugs in and not listening and not looking. ithink with ear plugs in and not listening and not looking. i think it is really important to get the message across, to get the kids to make videos to each other, you know? enter into a programme of well—being and safety and within schools. it is really difficult for schools because they are under a lot of pressure, but if the kids are doing projects together, if there is... your story before i was talking about the internets and our culture and it is about the well—being of kids, making them understand, but i think if you are in schools and you have a general well—being and safety lesson, and getting them to do little videos to each other and talk

about graffiti art, things that touch them and, you know, not seeing that graffiti art is ok but it is things that they associate with the railway and things like that and getting projects together that the youngsters can join in getting projects together that the youngsters canjoin in and do together. i think if you have youngsters doing those sort of things together, the message goes much deeper and that applies to safety, well—being, all areas that we are trying to educate our kids in. ., , we are trying to educate our kids in. . we are trying to educate our kids in. really appreciate you talking to us toda , in. really appreciate you talking to us today. thank — in. really appreciate you talking to us today, thank you _ in. really appreciate you talking to us today, thank you very _ in. really appreciate you talking to us today, thank you very much. i in. really appreciate you talking to i us today, thank you very much. thank ou, us today, thank you very much. thank you. goodbye- — time now to get the news, travel and weather where you are. good morning, i'm sonja jessup. there've been calls for the government to shut down a quarantine hotel in reading

after an outbreak of covid—19. the local council says penta hotel has been linked to a "significant" number of cases. it's understand 44 residents and staff at the site, run by the department for health and social care, have tested positive. the department has yet to comment. defences for thousands of homes and businesses in and around surrey that were hit by devastating floods seven years ago have moved forward. hundreds of residents had to be rescued from their properties when the river burst its banks in 2014. the government has approved a business case for the £500 million river thames scheme. but part of the project covering berkshire is no longer going ahead. an illustrator from south london has written a book for children aimed at exploring the experiences young black people face as they're growing up. �*hey you'— by dapo adeola — is said to address issues of systematic racism, in an honest but hopeful way. and it includes pictures by 19 other black illustrators. i never saw books that represented me as a kid. for example, i would colour

in disney characters to make them look like me. so, for example, cinderella would be brown, ariel would be brown. anything possible so that i could see myself. hi, my name isjoelle avelino and i am a london—based illustrator. it's quite a personal piece, so i related it to a lot to things i was into as a child. it was literallyjust to go wild. as a little girl, i wish i had something like this. while many of us will be enjoying the capital's green spaces in the sunshine, londoners are being asked not to feed the wildlife or get too close. the royal parks charity has launched a campaign warning over—feeding can be harmful. it urges to people to admire animals and birds from afar. 0nto travel now. the hammersmith and city line has minor delays— some trains have been cancelled which is hitting services and there's a burst water main in wood lane— it's closed between du cane road and north pole road time for the weather

with elizabeth rizzini. hello, good morning. it's a mild and muggy start to the day — we've seen some rather humid, moist air move through — so it won't be as sunny as it was yesterday. there will be a lot more cloud around and that cloud will tend to be thickening from the west. so, as we head through the morning, still some bright, some limited spells of sunshine — probably best the further east you are. still a chance of seeing the partial solar eclipse, which will peak at 11.13, later on this morning. remember, don't look directly at the sun — even if we do still have sun — but we should see that cloud break up somewhat as we head through the afternoon. there will be some brighter spells, some sunny spells later on through the day. the winds are light, it will stay dry, and temperatures will still peak at around 23 or 24 degrees celsius, particularly in central london. as we head through this evening and overnight, still that rather muggy feel to things, and clear spells. clouding over in time for friday morning. and then on friday, variable amounts of cloud — there will be some sunshine at times. we'll start to lose that rather humid—feeling air by the end of the day. so there will be a lot more sunshine as we head through the weekend, and temperatures will climb.

i'm back in an hour. bye for now. good morning and welcome to breakfast with naga munchetty and charlie stayt. the us presidentjoe biden is in cornwall this morning. he arrived there last night and will be staying until sunday for the g7 summit. he's in a luxury and heavily guarded hotel at carbis bay, near st ives. let's see the sort of views he can enjoy with his morning coffee. gorgeous blue sea, regardless of the sky. it'sjoe biden's first foreign trip as president, although he did travel extensively

as vice—president to barack 0bama, and a senator before that. let's get an idea of what he'll be hoping to achieve and what topics will be on the table when he meets the prime minister, borisjohnson. 0ur north america editorjon sopel is in plymouth. good morning, john. can you do and explain for us, because we saw st ives, carbis bay, where the g7 talks will take place and you are down the road in plymouth but that is because a lot of the team, the diplomatic team is staying there and you've beenin team is staying there and you've been in conversation with them ahead of what will happen.— of what will happen. exactly. the white house _ of what will happen. exactly. the white house travelling _ of what will happen. exactly. the white house travelling press i of what will happen. exactly. the i white house travelling press party actually, believe it or not, they were massively delayed getting out of washington yesterday. why? because of sick carders on the runway. to be more precise, in the engines of the press plane that was going to carry them over here —— cicadas. the white house press pool are based in plymouth, some might

say the wrong county, but that is where they decided to put themselves for the night, but let's go to the substance of what they will talk about today and it's an important meeting that will take place between borisjohnson and meeting that will take place between boris johnson and joe meeting that will take place between borisjohnson and joe biden and they have a lot to discuss and a lot to catch up on, a lot they agree on, and there will be odd areas whenjoe i __ and there will be odd areas whenjoe i ——joe brydon and there will be odd areas whenjoe i —— joe brydon will arch an eyebrow at some of what borisjohnson is doing and we will see that over the subject of northern ireland and the protocol and whether that puts in jeopardy the 1998 good friday agreement. before they flew, i spoke to the president's national security adviser, jake sullivan, and this is what he had to say.— adviser, jake sullivan, and this is what he had to say. whatever way the find what he had to say. whatever way they find to _ what he had to say. whatever way they find to proceed _ what he had to say. whatever way they find to proceed a _ what he had to say. whatever way they find to proceed a must, i what he had to say. whatever way they find to proceed a must, at i what he had to say. whatever wayj they find to proceed a must, at its core. _ they find to proceed a must, at its core, fundamentally protect the gains _ core, fundamentally protect the gains of— core, fundamentally protect the gains of the good friday agreement are not— gains of the good friday agreement are not imperil that, gains of the good friday agreement are not imperilthat, and gains of the good friday agreement are not imperil that, and that is the message president bridal will send when he is in cornwall. -- president _ send when he is in cornwall. -- president biden. as you said with comments like this from jake sullivan and the relationship

johnnies —— borisjohnson had with donald trump, this relationship perhaps not so cosy underlined when it comes to political thinking. yes. it comes to political thinking. yes, but i think that — it comes to political thinking. yes, but i think that the _ it comes to political thinking. yes, but i think that the really - but i think that the really important part is that british prime ministers have had to cope with changing presidents. remember, tony blair and bill clinton, changing presidents. remember, tony blairand bill clinton, it changing presidents. remember, tony blair and bill clinton, it was like a brotherly romance, and tony blair forged a good relationship with george bush, some say too good a relationship and i think boris johnson will do his best and on issues like climate change and defence cooperation, security and a vision for a global trading world, they are pretty aligned, and i think borisjohnson will be doing his best to work withjoe biden and equally it important forjoe biden to have the british onside, which they normally are. i think the past is the past and they will get on with the past and they will get on with the relationship that is more about the relationship that is more about the future. but the relationship that is more about the future. �* .,

the future. but also, something we've spoken — the future. but also, something we've spoken about _ the future. but also, something we've spoken about a _ the future. but also, something we've spoken about a lot - the future. but also, something we've spoken about a lot and i the future. but also, something i we've spoken about a lot and you've alluded to, northern ireland, the border protocols, and joe biden has been very clear about his own irish heritage and also his concern about what is happening when it comes to border controls and the relationship since brexit. border controls and the relationship since l“exit-— since brexit. people can be frivolous — since brexit. people can be frivolous about _ since brexit. people can be frivolous about his - since brexit. people can be frivolous about his irish i since brexit. people can be i frivolous about his irish roots, since brexit. people can be - frivolous about his irish roots, but actually they are incredibly important to him. i listened to him when he arrived last night and about three times he quoted irish poetry in his remarks. it's a very big part of who he is and he has made it fundamentally clear that he does not want to see anything that could in any way be interpreted as damaging the good friday agreement, and the northern ireland protocol is part of what was agreed for the british departure from the european union and if there is any concerted move by the british side to leave that

good friday agreement in any kind of danger, joe biden will be making his views extremely clear to boris johnson, and i think whatjake sullivan said to me said it's not a warning, they'vejust sullivan said to me said it's not a warning, they've just got to know how deeply we care about the issue. pay attention. we care deeply. jt’s pay attention. we care deeply. it's interesting the way you say about this that the talks behind the scenes will be tougher and if ever there were a time when the g7 nations wanted to show a unanimous front, bearing in mind the pandemic and what the world is going through, this surely will be it in terms of the big messages that come out. is that fair to say?— that fair to say? yes, i think it is, and that fair to say? yes, i think it is. and they — that fair to say? yes, i think it is, and they will— that fair to say? yes, i think it is, and they will be _ that fair to say? yes, i think it is, and they will be wanting i that fair to say? yes, i think it is, and they will be wanting to j is, and they will be wanting to show, that if you look at the pandemic and vaccine diplomacy, you could argue very clearly that may be russia and china have stolen a march on the west by giving their vaccines to poorer nations. i think the west

will want to be seen to be in the driving seat of a lot of that and will be trying to catch up with what russia and china have done, so that's part of what they have got to do as well, but given the rise of auto cracks of the strong men in power, i think to show the case for liberal democracy is also important to all of the people who have gathered. i went on donald trump's first trip when he went to the g7 and the nato summit and, my word, was it abrasive. and dysfunctional in an awful lot of ways. i thinkjoe biden, if he has a message at all to deliver to the rest of the people that are there, and the rest of the world, it is that america is back in a more traditionalform world, it is that america is back in a more traditional form that you know and maybe, to some extent, have come to love. j know and maybe, to some extent, have come to love-— come to love. i know you were reminiscing — come to love. i know you were reminiscing about _ come to love. i know you were reminiscing about time - come to love. i know you were reminiscing about time spent i reminiscing about time spent travelling while donald trump was present. how do you think the relationship between journalists and the president of the united states

there was an eerie silence then as novak djokovich took the lith set, to complete his quarter final victory over matteo berrettini at the french open. the match had been going 3 hours, when play had to be stopped to allow fans to leave as a result of the 11 pm curfew in paris. berrettini seemed to miss the fans, more than djokovic who said he had benefited from having a little break as they left, and you can see how much it meant to him. he'll face rafa nadal in the semis, after the spaniard beat argentina's diego schwartzmann in a tough match. nadal is aiming for a record— extending, 14th title at the french open. the waiting is almost over. the delayed european championship gets underway tomorow when italy take on turkey in rome. england face croatia on sunday and there have been increasing calls forjack grealish to start. he impressed against romania at the weekend, a performance that caught the attention of paul gascoigne — recognition that flatters the aston villa midfielder.

people see that television image of how she is doing, this is what she does. ,, . . how she is doing, this is what she does. ,, ., ., ., ., , does. shall we have another listen to this. roaring normally you wouldn't get the full impact because the crowd are joining in that raw and all i saw was carol. makes the hair stand up on the back of the neck. it makes the hair stand up on the back of the neck-— of the neck. it all comes out, all the anger- _ of the neck. it all comes out, all the anger- can _ of the neck. it all comes out, all the anger. can we _ of the neck. it all comes out, all the anger. can we have - of the neck. it all comes out, all the anger. can we have a - of the neck. it all comes out, all the anger. can we have a tease| of the neck. it all comes out, all - the anger. can we have a tease from carol about — the anger. can we have a tease from carol about what _ the anger. can we have a tease from carol about what she _ the anger. can we have a tease from carol about what she normally - the anger. can we have a tease from| carol about what she normally does? you want a demonstration? fish three minutes to six, and we all tremble. it takes me a good half hour to recover. good morning,.

whatever. good morning, everybody, half an hour ago i showed you this lovely weather watchers picture and we did not know what the plant was. it is a red valerian, and the weather watchers picture is from west sussex. and you can see a lot of cloud. over the next few days there will be some cloud around, but not much rain coming from it. the heat will build for the weekend, particularly so on sunday. we have a moving front bringing rain to the outer hebrides and it will wave back into the atlantic and come back in our way later on. a lot of cloud to start the day, some fog in southern areas, and the best of the sunshine in central and eastern areas, so if you want to see the partial solar eclipse, you might be lucky. even through the afternoon we will see cloud break across northern ireland and the moray firth and these are wind gust speeds, so 45 or 47 miles

an hour across the north west. temperatures today, we could hit 2a in the sunshine around the moray firth but the top temperature is likely to be in east yorkshire when it reached 26.4. if this tempts you to the beach, the sea is cold around the shores, between 11 and 15 degrees. it peaks in september, but even then, it's not particularly warm compared to the mediterranean. pollen levels today are high or very high across much of england but the rest of england and wales and northern ireland and scotland see the levels low or moderate. through the levels low or moderate. through the evening and overnight we see a return to a lot of cloud and the weather front is a cold front which sinks south, weakening all the time, so some splashes of rain within it, but not a lot and behind it it will turn fresher but still humid ahead of it. all of us staying in double figures. tomorrow, here is the weather front continuing the journey moving south, still with a lot of cloud around it and the odd spot of

rain and we will see further showers coming in across the north and west. the isobars tell us it will be a breezy day but nothing too significant and temperature wise, when the sun comes out once again we are looking at 25 degrees but behind the weather front the cold front with the cloud, it won't feel as warm as it is going to do today. high pressure really starts to build across our shores and that settles the weather down and there will be a lot of sunshine around but one or two weather fronts in the atlantic which skirt buy will bring some cloud in across northern ireland in western scotland, but a lot of sunshine and temperatures responding again, up to 25 or 26 degrees. on sunday we have cloud and may be rain getting in from the weather front through the day, but a lot of dry weather, and by then temperatures could get up to 29 in the south—east, and here are a few details about the partial eclipse if you hope to see it this morning, and remember, don't look at it with the

naked eye. what you need to do is get a cardboard box, put it on your head and face away from the sun with a pin prick on the other side. we have been showing _ pin prick on the other side. we have been showing that _ pin prick on the other side. we have been showing that in _ pin prick on the other side. we have been showing that in the _ pin prick on the other side. we have been showing that in the shetlandsl been showing that in the shetlands this morning. it would really suit you. this morning. it would really suit ou. �* , ., , this morning. it would really suit ou.�* ., ., this morning. it would really suit ou. ., ., y you. are you saying a box over my head? it's — you. are you saying a box over my head? it's a _ you. are you saying a box over my head? it's a good _ you. are you saying a box over my head? it's a good idea _ you. are you saying a box over my head? it's a good idea and - you. are you saying a box over my head? it's a good idea and it - you. are you saying a box over my i head? it's a good idea and it works, as we saw. if head? it's a good idea and it works, as we saw-— as we saw. if you could do that later, as we saw. if you could do that later. to _ as we saw. if you could do that later, to show _ as we saw. if you could do that later, to show us _ as we saw. if you could do that later, to show us how- as we saw. if you could do that later, to show us how it - as we saw. if you could do thatj later, to show us how it works. could you roar with the box on your head as well?— could you roar with the box on your head as well? goodness, look at the time. i head as well? goodness, look at the time- i will — head as well? goodness, look at the time. i will see _ head as well? goodness, look at the time. i will see you _ head as well? goodness, look at the time. i will see you just _ head as well? goodness, look at the time. i will see you just after - time. i will see you 'ust after eiaht. if you've ever been to tyneside you'll know it has some beautiful coastline, lovely people and fascinating industrial heritage. what you probably fon't expect to see is one of the world's most famous film stars, out for a bike ride. this week, however, harrison ford has been spotted in both newcastle and north shields. he's filming the latest indiana jones nearby, and stuart whincup has been on his trail. welcome to newcastle, mr ford! spotted by the quayside, the hollywood a—lister was out

taking in the sights around newcastle. he had been cycling but few recognised the man in the shades and lycra. that was until he stopped here for lunch. well, we obviously noticed who it was straightaway. you can't not notice that face. it's just a bit surreal, if i'm honest. we were just having a casual, normal day, and the next minute you look up and han solo is there, and it'sjust like, whoa. as he sat with friends and ordered the mussels and sea bass, the staff were finding it a little difficult to play it cool. everyone was a bit starstruck. everybody was coming out saying, "is it really harrison ford?" we almost didn't believe it was kind of him. it was just great. he was just a normal guyjust popping in, really nice, really friendly to everyone. butjustin was the real man in the know, and it seems harrison is not the only hollywood a—lister heading this way. happy days, great for the area. the area is up and coming now and it's attracting people from hollywood, and apparently brad pitt's coming down next week,

so i don't know how true that is, but that is the rumour on the fish quay this morning. if it's good enough for hollywood, it's good enough for north shields. we had hoped that harrison would return to north shields. we sent our cameras out far and wide and recruited an eager army to keep watch. and he stopped for an ice cream. he didn't, no. if he did, i didn't recognise him, and if he did, he didn't tip. brilliant, absolutely brilliant. i think it's fantastic. we were hoping to meet him today. he's up there with the top six actors in your life. _ his latest adventure had already taken him from north yorkshire, then on to newcastle before cycling up the coast to north shields. but nobody knows when or where the hollywood superstar will be spotted next.

and why wouldn't you be? gorgeous there. much of harrison ford's filming was in north yorkshire — where tom cruise was also shooting scenes a couple of months ago. richard knight works for the film agency screen yorkshire and joins us now from sheffield. lovely to talk to you this morning, and it is a special place. you have the scenery and the facilities there to attract hollywood productions. absolutely, good morning. the yorkshire film industry is absolutely booming at the moment. in 20 years in the industry i've never seen anything like it. it's the same across the whole of the uk. i think some of it was due to covid last year and we had a quiet year and some of the projects had been put on hold until this year, but we were in a general boom anyway, so it's unbelievable, the amount of stuff happening. unbelievable, the amount of stuff ha eninu. ., . unbelievable, the amount of stuff haueninu. ., . . , ., . ., happening. you are a production liaison for— happening. you are a production liaison for screen _ happening. you are a production liaison for screen yorkshire. - happening. you are a production. liaison for screen yorkshire. what do you do?— liaison for screen yorkshire. what do oudo? . �*, . ., do you do? that's right. we are the one-stop shop _ do you do? that's right. we are the one-stop shop for _ do you do? that's right. we are the one-stop shop for filming - do you do? that's right. we are the one-stop shop for filming in - one—stop shop for filming in yorkshire, any project of any size

but take a look at this. i'm a bit scared of squashing anyone with my big size 12 shoes. you are absolutely right. during lockdown it has been boom time for toymakers, and places like this have done pretty well with a renewed interest because we all have a bit more time on our hands so it means we've been able to spend a bit of time and money on some new hobbies and it is interesting. toys are necessarily for children. there has been a huge surge in sales of toys but nearly 30% of them were sold to adults and that means good business for some of those toy firms themselves and lego told us their sales were up by over 20%, and hornby, sales were up by 33%, and that aims and even those little corgi cars. just this morning it has told us that it bounced back from a loss of nearly £3 million last year i made a

president biden arrives in cornwall for talks with borisjohnson ahead of the g7 summit. northern ireland, and resuming trans—atlantic travel are high on the agenda. cornwall is ready. the painting, the planting, the tarmac is done. it is now time for the g7 talking to begin. on the day that would have been the duke of edinburgh's 100th birthday, prince edward speaks to the bbc about continuing his father's legacy. he wasn't really looking forward to the centenary, even if we were, but... so i think that we go ahead and we celebrate what might have been, and his life, and and i think we try to turn it into something that's very positive. a partial solar eclipse will be visible in parts of the uk later this morning — as long as the clouds clear roaring into the semi finals of the french open,

but novak djockovic was celebrating alone as when he finally beat matteo berretini — the 5,000 fans had been sent home because of a curfew in paris. good morning. there is quite a bit of fog across southern areas this morning and a lot of cloud around. best of the breaks today in central and eastern areas. i'm on to one sunshine here. some drizzle in the west and rain in the final request. all the details in about ten minutes. it's thursday the 10th ofjune. our top story. borisjohnson will meetjoe biden for the first time today — in cornwall — on the us president's first overseas visit since he was elected to the white house. they'll discuss the re—opening of travel between the uk and us, climate change, and the need to maintain peace in northern ireland. our diplomatic correspondent, paul adams, reports on the historic meeting. it's not every day the american president comes calling. joe biden, accompanied by his wife, touching down in newquay late last night.

a warm welcome at the start of a complex, challenging week of diplomacy. earlier at raf mildenhall, a chance to mingle with american troops and set out his stall. i'm heading to the g7, then to the nato ministerial and then to meet with mr putin to let him know what i want him to know. america, he said, was back — ready to work with allies to tackle coronavirus and climate change, and prove that democracies still work in the face of 21st—century challenges. mr biden sits down with boris johnson later today. the president says america's relationship with britain is still special. the prime minister says this is a big moment. don't forget, this is the first time in six months in office almost thatjoe biden, the us president, has been able to come overseas for a major trip. it's his first time

on the european continent. it's the first time any of us really have been able to see each other face—to—face since the pandemic began. and the pandemic, let's face it, was a pretty scratchy period for the world. downing street is talking of a new atlantic charter, modelled on the 1941 joint statement in which winston churchill and franklin roosevelt set out their vision of a post—war world. it sounds lofty, but includes more immediate objectives — like opening up travel between the us and uk as soon as possible. borisjohnson will also seek to reassure his guest that a row over sausages and the northern ireland protocol does not threaten the good friday agreement. american officials say their concern runs very deep. paul adams, bbc news. let's talk more about this with our chief political correspondent adam fleming, who's within the "ring of steel" in saint ives.

good morning. just so people get an understanding of how this works, you are within this ring of steel, the exclusion zone. causing problems locally for people but there is big business to be done and some talking between joe business to be done and some talking betweenjoe biden and borisjohnson starts today. between joe biden and boris johnson starts toda . . between joe biden and boris johnson starts toda . , between joe biden and boris johnson starts today-— starts today. yes, so life is pretty normal down _ starts today. yes, so life is pretty normal down in _ starts today. yes, so life is pretty normal down in st _ starts today. yes, so life is pretty normal down in st ives _ starts today. yes, so life is pretty normal down in st ives by - starts today. yes, so life is pretty normal down in st ives by the - normal down in st ives by the harbour, although it is quite busy, lots of people in suits walking around rather than shorts and t—shirts although it is not shorts and t—shirt weather today. you come up and t—shirt weather today. you come up hill and enter the ring of steel and there is an even more inner ring of steeljust over there and there is an even more inner ring of steel just over there which and there is an even more inner ring of steeljust over there which is where the leaders will meet tomorrow. that is big stuff happening tomorrow. today the big stuff is this first face—to—face meeting between joe stuff is this first face—to—face meeting betweenjoe biden and the prime minister borisjohnson. the plan is for them to meet on the coast with one of the uk's new

aircraft carriers in the sea behind them, though if it doesn't stop raining i am not sure we will be able to see it. on the upside of that meeting they will sign this new atlantic charter, an update of the document signed by winston churchill and franklin roosevelt in 1941, which will be all about the challenges that countries will work together on, whether it is trade, the promotion of democracy or technology. there are lots of questions about that task force that has been set up to look at travel. does that mean the us will lift its ban on british people going to america? does that mean the us will go on the uk's a green list? we don't know what we might not win sometime because it isjust don't know what we might not win sometime because it is just acting work. on the downside of that meeting, it looks like the white house has some quite serious concerns about whether the uk is picking to the letter of the deal it did with the eu over brexit and northern ireland and the impact that could have on the good friday peace process. it will be very interesting to see what the two side to say

about that meeting, which is happening this afternoon. hopefully in the sunshine rather than in the pouring rain. hate in the sunshine rather than in the pouring rain-— pouring rain. we look forward to that, pouring rain. we look forward to that. thank— pouring rain. we look forward to that, thank you _ pouring rain. we look forward to that, thank you very _ pouring rain. we look forward to that, thank you very much. - the prime minister borisjohnson has given his most downbeat assessment yet of whether the remaining coronavirus restrictions in england will be lifted onjune the 2ist. he said it's clear that covid cases are rising and hospitalisations are increasing — and that the government is still working to establish whether vaccines had built up enough protection within the population. school children in england face a culture in which sexual harassment has become "normalised". that's according to a review by the education watchdog, 0fsted. inspectors spoke to more than 900 young people after thousands of anonymous testimonials were posted online. they found nine out of ten girls reporting incidents of sexist name—calling and being sent unwanted explicit pictures or videos.

being sent unsolicited photographs, pornographic material being circulated that the recipients just don't want to see. all of these kinds of nuisance came through very strongly in all schools and colleges that we visited — notjust in a handful, in all of them. this is a general problem. new research has found huge regional variations in the number of people waiting more than one year for non—urgent surgery across england. castle point and rochford, in essex, had the highest proportion of people waiting more than 52 weeks for care — followed by southend and blackpool. nhs england says it has created a £1 billion fund to get services back to pre—covid levels. the health secretary, matt hancock, will face questions from a group of mps this morning to defend his record in handling the coronavirus pandemic. here he is leaving his house this morning. the health select committee is expected to quiz him over an accusation from the prime minister's former chief adviser, dominic cummings, that he was "disastrously incompetent". mr hancock denies the claim and says he has been guided by the science throughout.

if you see a lot of people outside with cardboard boxes over their heads just after ten o'clock this morning — don't worry. they're just trying to safely view a partial eclipse of the sun. an annular eclipse is due to take place. the cardboard box thing could last over one hour. that's when the moon passes directly in front of the sun but doesn't completely block out its light. our science correspondent rebecca morelle explains. it's one of nature's most dazzling sights — the moon casting its shadow across the sun. the northernmost parts of the world — canada, greenland and siberia — will be treated to the full eclipse, and it's a special solar event, known as an annular eclipse. an annular eclipse happens when the moon isjust a little bit further away from the earth, so it looks smaller in the sky. and what you'll be able to see is a sort of ring around the moon.

and so this is why the annular solar eclipses are sometimes known as the ring of fire. they're incredibly beautiful eclipses to spot, as well. but across the uk, we'll get to see some of it — a partial eclipse will be visible with about 20% of the sun obscured in the south of england, to nearly 40% in the shetland islands. so how can you safely watch the eclipse? well, you should never look at the sun directly or through sunglasses, because you can seriously damage your eyes. instead, you can use two pieces of card, one with a little hole in it, to make a projection of the sun. or if you can get hold of a pair of certified eclipse viewers, you can use these to watch the spectacle instead. it will look like the sun is being eaten. now, there may be some sunspots on the sun — these are dark features on the surface of the sun — and they might be visible, too, depending on the techniques that you use to view the partial eclipse. so there is a lot to see.

the partial eclipse will start from about 10am across the uk, finishing two and a half hours later. the hope is the weather stays clear. rebecca morelle, bbc news. it is going to be beautiful if we get to see it. it depends on the cloud coverage, as rebecca said. the only person who can really tell us if it is going to be cloudy or not, who has all the power and, as we made very clear, don't upset her, it's carol. good morning. look at you, look at us looking forward to an eclipse and you bring us fog stuck in a sorry! good morning. it is quite foggy in some southern parts and it will slowly lift, some into low cloud. quite a cloudy start. the best of any sunshine today will be across central and eastern parts of the country. shrouded in cloud in the west,

producing drizzle, damp conditions, for northern ireland a cloudy start. as it is across northern england and scotland with one or two exceptions in the north—east of england and northern scotland. summer rain coming in the outer hebrides, gusty winds. that will pull back into the atlantic and come back again later. through the day we will see price rates develop, especially in the afternoon. northern ireland, around the moray firth, we could hit 24 degrees. like yesterday, top temperatures likely to be around hull. as we head into the evening and overnight, what cloud comes in and overnight, what cloud comes in and we also have a weather front sinking slowly southwards. here it is as a weak affair, still producing spots of rain. a cold front, so behind it will feel fresher, more comfortable for sleeping. i had a bit it will still feel comfortable for sleeping. i had a hit it will still feel fairly humid. tomorrow that when the front continues to advance south—eastwards. again a lot of

cloud around it with some spots of rain making down to the south—east. behind it, not as high temperatures as we are looking at today. some brighter breaks developing, but ahead of it we are still looking at 25 or 26 degrees. as we head on into the weekend, if anything it is going to turn it warmer. for some it will be hot. high pressure re—establishes itself across the uk and on sunday in london for example it could hit 29 degrees. on sunday it will be warmer across the whole of the uk. thank you very much.— today would have been the duke of edinburgh's 100th birthday — and in his memory the queen has been given a rose named after him. the hybrid rose — which is deep pink and double—flowered — was created by the royal horticultural society and planted in the gardens at windsor castle last week. proceeds from its sale

will go to the duke of edinburgh award scheme. the queen described the flower as "lovely". the earl of wessex has told the bbc that his father would not have relished his centenary celebrations because he preferred to avoid fuss. prince edward has been talking to our royal correspondent, daniela relph. can i ask you aboutjune the 10th? it would have been your father's 100th birthday — something of a bittersweet day for you? yes, i think that... i think that's probably a fair thing to say. but i think that, from a selfish point of view, we would have loved it if he had been here and been with us. but then birthdays were not necessarily his... so he didn't really want all the fuss and bother. and so i think that he wasn't really... he wasn't really looking forward to the the centenary, even if we were, but... so i think that we go ahead and we celebrate what might have been, and his life, and i think we try to turn it into something that's that's very positive. i think it's very

important to do that. you must miss him. yes. yes, and... but it's been a very difficult year, 18 months, because, i mean, luckily... so last summer, we were able to spend a reasonable amount of time together. but, yes, it's been very difficult during this period, not being able to spend... but then, like so many otherfamilies, you know, we've all been separated and parted. so it has been very difficult for so many people. and, you know, we're no different in that sense. it has now been two months since he died. i wonder how you now reflect on that period of time and how the public responded afterwards. the funeral was... it was an extraordinary day, but it's because it was also very strange. you know, what should have been an occasion for so many people and so many people that, you know, he had touched his life not being there. it was very strange,

coming from the the outside with all the pageantry and the... and then coming into into st george's chapel, especially into the nave, which was completely empty. it was a very moving, very sombre experience. but, gosh, we were blessed with a beautiful day, and i'm just so glad that, you know, that we were able to do that bit at least, and to do it — as this country does it — really, really well. and a lot of people were moved by seeing your mother, as well, in the chapel, sitting alone in her mask. it must have been very difficult for you to not be alongside her and able to comfort her that day. yes, exactly that — and the same for everybody, really, we were all sitting in our family groups — but then that's no different to what so many other families have been experiencing up and down the country throughout this past year. we can't escape the fact that it has been a difficult few months for the royal family on a number of levels, but particularly around the situation with the duke

and duchess of sussex and how that has played out so publicly — that has been difficult. i wonder how you view that now, or how you look at that particular situation. i stay way out of it. it's much the safest place to be. and do you feel any sadness about how it's played out? oh, of course, you know, i mean, it's... there are all sorts of issues and circumstances there. but, you know, we've all been through there. we've all had that same spotlight shone on our lives. we've been subjected to massive intrusion, all the rest of it, and we all deal with it in different ways. a new baby for harry and meghan this week — baby lilibet, a name that will be very meaningful for your family. well, wejust wish them all happiness — that's fantastic news. and... yeah, absolutely, i hope they're very happy and... yeah. and the duke of edinburgh award is going to be a key part of your father's legacy, it's what so many will remember him for and how they will have a connection with him. it's alive and well and... and i think it's got a, you know, a very important future. the impact of not being

able to go to school, online learning, you know, suited to some, not others. you know, we know about those that had their exams... but it's affected a whole generation going through school in one way or another. and we don't know what those repercussions are going to be. you know, here is a moment we can really play a really important part in the recovery. because that's what we need — we need young people who are flexible, adaptable, resilient and, you know, prepared to take risks. they're prepared to become entrepreneurs. and we don't know exactly what's going to happen in the future. so we need young people that are going to, you know, going to be able to cope with that and manage that and come out the better for it. how was lockdown? you don't live far away — i wondered how it was for you and for the queen and the duke. i think they've had it really, really very difficult and really quite strange. but then, you know, thankfully, you know, we have phones, we have, you know, computers and so...

you know, we were able to be able to maintain a reasonable amount of contact. and so we all made the effort. and that was the important thing — that's what everybody did. were there royal family zoom calls, online quizzes? can i ask you what you did to stay connected? no, we never dare get the whole family together. that would have been... that really would have caused chaos, i think! you will be the next duke of edinburgh, when the prince of wales becomes king. that is quite something to take on. yes. it was fine in theory when, you know, sort of ages ago when it was a sort of a pipe dream of my father's, so... and, of course, you know, it will depend on whether or not the prince of wales, when he becomes king, whether he will do that. so we'll wait and see. but yes, it will be a... yes, it'll be quite a challenge, taking that one on. how would you like your father to be remembered? everybody will have their own memories. he was that sort of larger—than—life person. once met, never forgotten.

i'm sure! your royal highness, the earl of wessex, thank you very much. thank you. let's turn our attention to one of our main stories this morning. it will be a talking point for the next few days. with 5,000 extra police officers on duty, secret service personnel on the beaches and warships patrolling the coast — cornwall is having an extraordinary few days thanks to the g7 summit. but while world leaders are meeting inside the ring of steel, how is the event affecting local businesses and residents? breakfast�*sjohn maguire is in saint ives to tell us more. it has been rather beautiful this morning but the clouds are there, a bit of rain but the backstrap is still beautiful.— bit of rain but the backstrap is still beautiful. ., ., , ., ., still beautiful. how are you doing down there? _ still beautiful. how are you doing down there? i _ still beautiful. how are you doing down there? i am _ still beautiful. how are you doing down there? i am doing - still beautiful. how are you doing down there? i am doing very - still beautiful. how are you doing l down there? i am doing very well, thank you for asking. it is wonderful, st ives, crockett picture

postcard stuff, looking magnificent. as you quite rightly say, a good deal of the old south west liquid sunshine this morning. carbis bay is the location for the conference. talking to people of the last week, can't decide whether it is brilliant bunkers. there are advantages and disadvantages and if you are with us yesterday when we were speaking to the chief inspector from devon and cornwall police he was talking about some of the challenges for his organisation to try to secure not only the leaders but to also try to enable the local communities and businesses to go around their daily life as best as they possibly can. it has been fascinating, especially as the leaders start to arrive, as the ring of steel has started to take its grip. some people very excited, positive, others are less so. the first group shot of the g7 leaders may not portray them in the most flattering light, but it's certainly eye catching. all of this waste, you know,

it needs to be recycled. it needs to be repairable, you know, or it needs to be made to last longer because all this stuff is going into landfill. they are for one use and we've got to get the hang of this situation and find a way of being less wasteful. in a nod to mount rushmore, which depicts former american presidents, this is called mount recyclemore, made of everyday electrical components maligning our disposable culture. if people stick their smartphone in a drawer and get another one, that smartphone could be handed back to these organizations, which redistribute tech that's only a few years old. somebody else can use a relatively new smartphone. the unedifying edifice looks out across the bay to where the summit talks will take place and carries a clear message. talk to each other, talk to each other and sort this mess out. as the royal navy protects the bay, kat keeps an ever watchful

eye on the shoreline. when she's not guarding the beach for the rnli, she's part of the lifeboat crew, which will spend the weekend at the lifeboat station to guarantee they can respond to any emergency. obviously, it's going to take a lot longer to get to the boathouse because of the g7 and police and traffic, etc. so all of us will be there on call, ready to go. cornish businesses have been promised an extra £50 million from the g7 and the chance to beam these beaches around the world. but some in carbis bay itself say the disruption has proved too much. we'd normally have a fully booked restaurant at this time of year. we were full all last week and instead we found that when customers rang to inquire about booking for that period and we tell them you have to follow four or five—mile diversion, we've been told to expect major disruptions that could take as much as two to four hours to get from here to st ives. unsurprisingly, people

are put off coming here. the government's pledged legacies for the environment and for cambourne, penzance and st ives. so, john, this is the edward hayne memorial hospital building, which is what the community is asking for back. where the town's hoping this former hospital could be given to the community. what we'd really like to happen is that the government show the same philanthropy that was shown to our town 100 years ago by edward hayne and his family and gift this building back to the town so we can decide exactly what happens in it next. dear president biden and dr biden... many people are excited that a small town is hosting such big players. eight—year—old zoe's mum, jennifer, is american, eight—year—old zoe's, whose mum, jennifer, is american, has written to the potus and flotus

to say, "join us for a pasty." cornwall is famous for pasties. i was wondering if you'd like to come and get a pasty and ice cream with me and my momma. i think it's not great timing - with covid, but it's really exciting to have the world leaders . here and to show them how beautiful cornwall is. as the leaders arrive in the county, it's now up to the g7 to recognise that beauty and to leave a meaningful legacy for cornwall�*s future. and in the spirit of, if you build it they will come, malcolm bell says visit cornwall and seven world leaders have.— visit cornwall and seven world leaders have. . . , , leaders have. and the extra guests so even more- _ leaders have. and the extra guests so even more. how— leaders have. and the extra guests so even more. how is— leaders have. and the extra guests so even more. how is it _ leaders have. and the extra guests so even more. how is it going? - leaders have. and the extra guests so even more. how is it going? it. leaders have. and the extra guests| so even more. how is it going? it is aroin so even more. how is it going? it is going fine. — so even more. how is it going? it is going fine. there — so even more. how is it going? it is going fine, there is _ so even more. how is it going? it is going fine, there is disruption - so even more. how is it going? it is going fine, there is disruption but i going fine, there is disruption but the main — going fine, there is disruption but the main thing is that the sun is due out. — the main thing is that the sun is due out. it _ the main thing is that the sun is due out, it will be sunny over the weekend. — due out, it will be sunny over the weekend, that showcases cornwall and also showcases all the other things around _ also showcases all the other things around renewables. it is a great chance — around renewables. it is a great chance to — around renewables. it is a great chance to have this corner of the world _ chance to have this corner of the world be — chance to have this corner of the world be seen by the rest of the world _ world be seen by the rest of the world. ., . ,

do that, they want a physical link to the person they were close to. i to the person they were close to. i hadn't thought about doing that at all, because she is with me every single day, but i think everybody close to her probably thinks about her every day and what we are doing is so important and would have been so important to her. she cared about charity so much and she was very empathetic and loving. i thinkjust carrying her in my mind, i have little mementos for her anyway. i have a necklace or a tattoo for her, so that will be enough. i think carrying a backpack, boots, the close, the stress, all of that is enough, so, yes. aha, close, the stress, all of that is enough, so, yes.— close, the stress, all of that is enough, so, yes. a point well made. you have enough _ enough, so, yes. a point well made. you have enough staff _ enough, so, yes. a point well made. you have enough staff to _ enough, so, yes. a point well made. you have enough staff to carry i you have enough staff to carry around. can i ask you, i noticed you said you think about her every day and everyone who has been through the grief of a loved one will absolutely understand that

sentiment. you are raising money for the samaritans, and they do so much work in trying to help people. what have you learned about the grief process and how you have tried to cope with things? i process and how you have tried to cope with things?— cope with things? i think it is hard for anyone — cope with things? i think it is hard for anyone that _ cope with things? i think it is hard for anyone that loses _ cope with things? i think it is hard for anyone that loses anybody i cope with things? i think it is hard| for anyone that loses anybody that dies, but suicide is a tricky thing to get over. for me personally, my mental health has definitely suffered but the samaritans are an amazing charity, a vital charity for people, for suicide prevention. they don'tjust help people that are considering suicide at it's a real hard struggle and before you get to that horrific point, for me it's been quite a challenge and i don't know if i will ever get over something like this. whether it's

someone you know a little bit or a best friend or family member, someone you know a little bit or a best friend orfamily member, losing someone this way is a really hard thing to get over and i have to say that one of the thing i found is that one of the thing i found is that working out is a really good way of getting your mind right, so doing something like this and looking forward to a climb, raising money and having a goalfor a charity is as important as the samaritans is a really good thing to do. it's a really good thing to look forward to for me.— forward to for me. lovely to hear about you _ forward to for me. lovely to hear about you being _ forward to for me. lovely to hear about you being able _ forward to for me. lovely to hear about you being able to - forward to for me. lovely to hear about you being able to talk i forward to for me. lovely to hear| about you being able to talk about it in a positive light, and i dare as time has gone by, and i'm sure across the weekend, you and your friends and caroline's family will share stories that can make you smile, because those of us who did not know her well knew that personality from tv and i know there's a whole other story attached, but there will be things for you and those close to her that you can enjoy. definitely. i

for you and those close to her that you can enjoy. definitely.- you can en'oy. definitely. i only have you can enjoy. definitely. i only have gorgeous _ you can enjoy. definitely. i only have gorgeous memories i you can enjoy. definitely. i only have gorgeous memories of- you can enjoy. definitely. i onlyj have gorgeous memories of me you can enjoy. definitely. i only i have gorgeous memories of me on you can enjoy. definitely. i only - have gorgeous memories of me on her, her and other people. i don't have anything negative at all and i think it will be special, and i think doing this with friends and family, those who loved her, not everybody that was her best friend is doing it, but whoever is doing it, it will be nice to share those things, whether we do it on the climb, i'm sure we won't be up to climb and talk but there will be memory shared and i have certainly loads of gorgeous memories, but my main focus isjust making sure gorgeous memories, but my main focus is just making sure that we get the word out there of the samaritans and why we are doing this, how important it is for the publicity of this charity and to raise money for them. no question it is a brilliant cause. can i check with you, is olly murs worried about the physical side? he will probably handle some of it ok.

yes, i think he is superfit, so he will be ok. everybody doing it has some level of fitness, with me, i do work out, i'm not the best, or lou who was one of caroline's closest mates, we speak all day, every day about the training we are doing and supporting each other through it, so oliver is doing, we have got to push each other mentally —— all of us doing it. each other mentally -- all of us doin: it. ~ . each other mentally -- all of us doin: it. ~ , i. ., doing it. we wish you well from here on the programme. _ doing it. we wish you well from here on the programme. we _ doing it. we wish you well from here on the programme. we hope - doing it. we wish you well from here on the programme. we hope it i doing it. we wish you well from here on the programme. we hope it goes| on the programme. we hope it goes well over the weekend. i imagine you will be posting pictures and stuff as it goes along. we will want to see those. i as it goes along. we will want to see those-— see those. i will post loads of stuff. see those. i will post loads of stuff- good — see those. i will post loads of stuff. good luck _ see those. i will post loads of stuff. good luck and - see those. i will post loads of stuff. good luck and i - see those. i will post loads of stuff. good luck and i hope i see those. i will post loads of. stuff. good luck and i hope the sunshine is _ stuff. good luck and i hope the sunshine is for _ stuff. good luck and i hope the sunshine is for you. _ stuff. good luck and i hope the sunshine is for you. thanks, i stuff. good luck and i hope the i sunshine is for you. thanks, and 'ust sunshine is for you. thanks, and just make _ sunshine is for you. thanks, and just make sure _ sunshine is for you. thanks, and just make sure you _ sunshine is for you. thanks, and just make sure you go _ sunshine is for you. thanks, and just make sure you go to - sunshine is for you. thanks, and just make sure you go to the i sunshine is for you. thanks, and | just make sure you go to the just giving website and donate a look at the other samaritans research but social research —— social media will

they had to go home and the rest of the match in an eerie silence. there were boos from fans, when they had to leave the french open to obey the 11 pm paris curfew and questions, as to why the match hadn't started earlier, before 8 o clock, when there was a long gap after the previous game. it meant the crowd missed the moment, when novak djokovic, won the 4th set, against matteo berretini, to reach a semi final against rafael nadal. roaring. england's build up to the second test against new zealand, has once again been dominated by social media controversy after a number of offensive historical tweets, from england players were revealed. the ecb have said they will he look the latest revelations.

this follows ollie robinson apologising for racist and sexist our tweets from 2012 and 2013, and his suspension, pending an investigation. captainjoe root says the squad want to move forward now, in a really positive way. we faced ugly truths and there will be challenges moving forward but the players we have right now are very much committed to moving the game _ forward and making it a better place and more inclusive and to educate ourselves further. it could be a big day forjames anderson, in front of 18,000 fans allowed into edgbaston. he is already england's leading wicket taker, but could surpass sir alastair cook's record as the most capped player later. anderson admitted he didn't think he was good enough for test cricket, when he made his debut 18 years ago back when twitter and instagram didn't even exist! we are nowjust a day away from the start of the delayed all european championship and what a game to kick us off

tomorow when italy take on turkey in rome. these are pictures from the stadium in baku. there will be no red wall forfans to spur them in baku. there will be no red wall for fans to spur them on to the semifinals like back in france and the players have been speaking about how much they will miss them and the fans will miss the wonderful scene. what a coastline. england will have 22,000 fans at wembley on sunday as they take on croatia and the calls forjack grealish to start getting louder and louder and he impressed in his performance against romania, which caught the attention of paul gascoigne, a recognition which flatters the midfielder. i am happy that gazza likes me as a player. i think every english person absolutely adores him. he was unbelievable, and if i could get any performances as close to what he did, iwould be over the moon.

scotland have arrived at their training camp near middlesbrough, ahead of their first match on monday against the czech republic at hampden park, where there will be over 12,000 fans. we'll hear from the team later today away from the excitement ahead of the euros, we love the lengths fans go to to catching the ball at a baseball but here it's a good job, the fan who eventually caught this big hit, stays on herfeet, because look she's holding a baby. that makes me shiver in a way because it's a long time since i've held a baby, and it's a long time since i asked of me. the baby seems an fuss. we get a lot of bizarre things happening, and charlie you've made a bizarre request and i'm happy to oblige. it is made a bizarre request and i'm happy to oblire. , , ., made a bizarre request and i'm happy tooblie. , , . to oblige. it is practical, and you are aroin

secure. sorry i was just looking to see if mike could still stand. yes, it does matter, and there is a lot of cloud around this morning and fog across southern areas as you can fog across southern areas as you can see fog across southern areas as you can see from the weather watchers picture taken earlier in cornwall, but moved to the east, and you have blue skies in suffolk and at the moment it is eastern and central areas that will see the lion's share of the sunshine but through the day others will see some breaks develop. we had a weather front across the far north—west of scotland which will introduce some rain, but it is waving, so it will come in and go away and then come back later, and also gusty winds as well. a lot of cloud, fog in the south, and this cloud, fog in the south, and this cloud will thin and break in some parts as we go through the day. northern ireland starting on a cloudy note and some sunshine and temperatures already in the sunshine up temperatures already in the sunshine up to 20 degrees around the moray firth and also liverpool will stop and these are the wind gust speeds,

so gusty winds across the north west. temperatures today 2a is likely around the moray firth and as we come into hull, 26 is likely to be the top temperature as it was 26.4 there yesterday. if it tempts you to the sea, the sea temperature is not warm at this time of year and we are looking between 11 and 15 degrees and it is september when you see the warmest seas around the uk. the other thing is, if you do go, take your hanky because if you have a pollen allergy across parts of england the levels are high or very high and low for scotland and northern ireland. through the evening and overnight, we see a return to cloud and the weather front sinks south is a weak feature takes patchy rain with it but the cold front is sinking south, so fresh conditions following behind but it will still be quite a muggy ahead of that weather front, and here it is tomorrow, continuing the journey, moving south and east and you can tell from the isobars that

it will be breezy as well, but nothing significant. here is the weather front here, nothing significant. here is the weatherfront here, bringing nothing significant. here is the weather front here, bringing and patchy rain steadily south through the day and we will see showers across the north and north and west unlike today, the cloud will break and we will see sunny spells as well behind the weather front, fresh conditions and temperatures not as high as they might be in the north, but ahead of the weather front we are looking at 25 or 26 degrees. into the weekend, the area of high pressure builds across the shores and it will settle things down and more of us will see sunshine and the temperature is going to build. 0n temperature is going to build. on saturday, a lot of sunshine but there will be weather fronts flirting with the north west introducing cloud at times and temperatures between 18 and 25 or 26 and then on sunday, a lot of dry weather and sunshine and out towards the west we have a weather front bringing in rain through the course of the day but sunday looks like it could be hot in the south with highs up could be hot in the south with highs up to 29 that you can see how the

warmth is spreading northwards, 24 in caithness. . i haven't heard you say it for a while with those temperatures. scorchio. and it will be on sunday. that has made the morning. a lot of our holiday memories might feel like they're in the dim and distant past right now — but yours would have to go a long way back to beat heather beagley�*s. heather — who is 99 — is thought to be the last surviving passenger from the maiden voyage of the queen mary ocean liner in 1936. to mark the 85th anniversary of the ship's arrival in new york, she's been sharing some of those special memories — and a cup of tea — with the bbc�*s emma baugh. afternoon tea, 85 years on, enjoyed from the very same china

from the maiden voyage. 99—year—old heather beagley was just 14 when she joined the world—famous journey, travelling from southampton on the queen mary to new york — memories that have stayed with her ever since. it was absolutely fantastic. i mean, when we walked onto the quay at southampton, it just towered right above. very impressive, all the furnishings and the woodwork and everything, they were the absolute highest quality. and really beautiful. were you with the creme de la creme of society? all cocooned in one vessel? it must have been simply amazing. yes, it was. today's tea party, here at margaret house, after a historian heard of heather's story and brought mementos to show her from the ship.

it's a real honour for me, you know, to meet someone who was on board the maiden voyage 85 years ago and still holds such beautiful memories of an era that has long since gone. you know, the queen mary now stands as a lovely reminder in long beach of an era past, but to be able to speak to heather who brings that to life about what that amazing day was like. she can tell you things that other people just can't, and that's truly wonderful. a chance today for her family to share precious memories. well, i think it was just a totally different era and the glamour. and the fact that they ate so much at that time, they had _ a huge breakfast, lunch,l and then this fabulous tea they always had. the number of film stars on the ship was just amazing, because they all wanted to have said they had been on it. so there was 0livia de havilland

it will be an "annular eclipse" — meaning the moon will pass directly in front of the sun but not completely block out its light. 0ur reporter ben boulos is at the royal observatory in greenwich, in south east london, to tell us more. that is the view of the royal observatory over greenwich park in south—east london, and a dappled sky. a bit of cloud, lots of blue as well and then has been telling us how they will be watching this partial eclipse later this morning at the royal observatory and hopefully answer any questions coming in. hopefully answer any questions coming im— hopefully answer any questions cominu in. , , . , �* coming in. yes, very much so. isn't that the most _ coming in. yes, very much so. isn't that the most stunning _ coming in. yes, very much so. isn't that the most stunning view - coming in. yes, very much so. isn't that the most stunning view across| that the most stunning view across the london skyline, and on such a people morning and very handily they have a telescope, but what would you expect at the royal observatory? this one is a lot more simple than the top—notch sophisticated kit that they have got in there, and that is they have got in there, and that is the kit they will be using to capture the solar eclipse you are

talking about and to stream it live on their youtube channel so if you haven't got an expensive telescope at home, you can was watch the images they have captured, but let's find out some more about it and take you back to science classes in school and speak to one of the astronomers, hannah. what have you got there and how can people make one of these at home to capture the eclipse? one of these at home to capture the ecli se? , , one of these at home to capture the eclise? , , ., , ., one of these at home to capture the eclise? , ,., , ., , ., . eclipse? this is a pinhole pro'ect and ou eclipse? this is a pinhole pro'ect and you just fl eclipse? this is a pinhole pro'ect and you just need i eclipse? this is a pinhole pro'ect and you just need a i eclipse? this is a pinhole project and you just need a cardboard i eclipse? this is a pinhole project. and you just need a cardboard box and you just need a cardboard box and cut_ and you just need a cardboard box and cut out— and you just need a cardboard box and cut out a hole at one end, stick and cut out a hole at one end, stick a pic— and cut out a hole at one end, stick a pic of— and cut out a hole at one end, stick a pic of foil— and cut out a hole at one end, stick a pic of foil on— and cut out a hole at one end, stick a pic of foil on and put a pinhole through— a pic of foil on and put a pinhole through and on the other side cut out a _ through and on the other side cut out a viewing hole and then you need to line _ out a viewing hole and then you need to line it_ out a viewing hole and then you need to line it up— out a viewing hole and then you need to line it up with the sun and you will see — to line it up with the sun and you will see the — to line it up with the sun and you will see the eclipse projected onto the hack— will see the eclipse projected onto the back of the cardboard box. it is very important _ the back of the cardboard box. it 3 very important that people do not look directly at the sky. it sounds obvious, but people will be tempted but they mustn't.— but they mustn't. absolutely not. sunglasses _ but they mustn't. absolutely not. sunglasses will _ but they mustn't. absolutely not. sunglasses will not _ but they mustn't. absolutely not. sunglasses will not protect - but they mustn't. absolutely not. sunglasses will not protect you. | but they mustn't. absolutely not. i sunglasses will not protect you. you need proper equipment. there sunglasses will not protect you. you need proper equipment.— need proper equipment. there are some of the _ need proper equipment. there are some of the special— need proper equipment. there are some of the special cards - need proper equipment. there are some of the special cards you - need proper equipment. there are some of the special cards you can | some of the special cards you can get but you have to pick them up from somewhere like the observatory and they are giving them out free
