outstretched arms — suggesting whatever happened was either that the heart stopped or something was going wrong in the brain. there was a very transient epileptic movement, but what was important was that the doctors sought to him very quickly. and after 6—7 minutes of very active resuscitation, we have a young man who is now alive. the question is really what happened? clearly sudden—death or sudden cardiac arrest among athletes is not common. it usually occurs in people who got an underlying cardiac problem. now someone like christian eriksen, who playing for top clubs like ajax and tottenham hotspur is tested each year to look for electrical faults of the heart muscle, which are things that often cause deaths in young athletes. he was tested when he was signed and tested every year. after 2019, he was signed and tested every year. after2019, our he was signed and tested every year. after 2019, our tests were unable to

pinpoint and optimality. the show that these tests don't always pick up that these tests don't always pick up on athletes who may have a sub serious condition or who may be at risk of sudden death, and it also tells us that pitch side, having doctors who really know what they're doing is so crucial.— doing is so crucial. professor, use because of— doing is so crucial. professor, use because of someone _ doing is so crucial. professor, use because of someone who - doing is so crucial. professor, use because of someone who actually| because of someone who actually carried out these tests. would you confirm that for us? == carried out these tests. would you confirm that for us?— carried out these tests. would you confirm that for us? -- you speak as someone- — confirm that for us? -- you speak as someone. certainly _ confirm that for us? -- you speak as someone. certainly one _ confirm that for us? -- you speak as someone. certainly one of _ confirm that for us? -- you speak as someone. certainly one of my - confirm that for us? -- you speak as someone. certainly one of my jobs l confirm that for us? -- you speak as| someone. certainly one of my jobs is someone. certainly one of myjobs is to look after the hearts, at least, of tottenham hotspur football players. so yes, it was i that certainly conducted the test on christian eriksen over the past few years. 50 christian eriksen over the past few ears. , ., , , years. so the next question, because as soon as this _ years. so the next question, because as soon as this happened, _ years. so the next question, because as soon as this happened, everybody| as soon as this happened, everybody started talking about fabrice malabo, who thankfully alive. the question is, why is this happening

to presumably very healthy athletes? now you were part of a team looking at 20 years worth of data — what were your finding? at 20 years worth of data — what were yourfinding? in at 20 years worth of data - what were your finding?— at 20 years worth of data - what were your finding? in the 20 years since the football _ were your finding? in the 20 years since the football association - were your finding? in the 20 years since the football association set | since the football association set “p since the football association set up their screening programme, young football scholars between the age of 16-17, football scholars between the age of 16—17, we found that one in 280 young players had a cardiac condition that could potentially kill them. we were able to provide lifetime advice and even some treatments which meant that practically all of them are alive. during that time period, there were deaths in eight players total — and in this case, we identified serious cardiac conditions in two, but failed to identify anything serious beyond six. i should point out that the death and the six players occurred around ten years after they'd been screened. what this says

is that one in a player is not enough. and when a players pushing their hearts up to a maximum at this level, they need to be tested on annual basis. so we found that death rates and football players are about one and 14,800, and one and 280 players had a condition that was potentially very serious, and if we detected it early enough, we could certainly prevent many of these deaths. as you saw today, these screening tests are not foolproof and sometimes people with screening tests may still experience adverse cardiac events for many reasons — either they're carrying a virus which might cause an formation of the heart, even though they appeared normal at the screening, or they went to a game with a gastric bug, or it was too hot. all these things could cause cardiac arrest. that's why pitch side expertise is so

on how to contain and challenge china's growing influence in the developing world. the seven leaders are being asked to commit, to a project borisjohnson has dubbed the carbis bay declaration. that will be wrapped tomorrow. but his stand—off with the eu over trade in northern ireland post—brexit has over—shadowed the conference. politico's chief brussels correspondent, david herszenhorn, gave me the details on that. there is this continuing disagreement where, from the eu side, they really think boris johnson wants them to solve a problem he created. he pushed to undo the agreement they reached with theresa may, to put essentially a customs border in the middle of the irish sea. now that's coming back to haunt him. but everybody, really — because we've seen already the island of ireland — so the eu does have an obligation here because, of course, they too want to protect the good friday agreement, they are very heartened that joe biden is kind of on their side, reminding boris johnson that if ireland is her in this process, he'll have a very hard time with this special relationship. -- if —— if ireland is hurt. but this is not done yet, it will continue for a while. 0n the wider issue of china — do the europeans see

eye—to—eye with joe biden? they're much closer on china, and clearly we will hear some noise out of beijing after this communique. from all the reporting we've done, there will be tough language on attentions in the taiwan strait — there has never been a statement like that before by the g7, the last time they had a communique was one line on china. —— tensions in the taiwan strait. here we expect a more robust section in something the chinese government will probably react to very strongly, not happy, saying the g7 is meddling and interfering in theiraffairs. in terms of the communique tomorrow, obviously we've been briefed some over the big headlines, first of all, do you think we will get a vaccine declaration from the europeans in terms of numbers they are prepared to donate, in terms of doses? we do believe that. they've already said 100 million, we think they are prepared to up that. emmanuel macron reacting tojoe biden's announcement of a 500 million dose donation, saying, "if they are more ambitious, the eu should also be more ambitious." i think that's a sign — the big overarching message, of course, of this summit is, withjoe biden here, the alliance is back, the cooperation is back.

they aren't worried, as with donald trump, somebody will leave this summit and something blow up that communique as he did after quebec. —— suddenly blow up that communique. so it's been two years, but even longer because emmanuel macron avoided doing the communique in france because he was worried donald trump was going to abandon it. —— going to upend it. so here, finally they'll have a nice, robust communique, a joint statement on vaccines, on climate change, on china, on russia. we hear language coming on ethiopia, concerned about what's happening in the tigre region — quite a lot of regions where they will show there is broad agreement amongst the seven wealthy democracies and how the world should be run. —— quite a lot of areas. and just quickly to close, any sticking points? anything they've still got to iron out? the last piece i'm hearing is that, on the intellectual property issue — remember, joe biden surprised the europeans by advocating for lifting patent protections for vaccines, and they pushed back hard, angela merkel in particular, saying that alone won't increase production quickly, which is what they need, and there's a risk of the western mrna technology —

what's behind the pfizer and moderna vaccines — simply being transferred to a country like china that can make use of it rather than helping nations like africa that really need doses. so there's a little bit of wrestling at the end. the us seems to want to go fatherthere, saying, "lift those patent protections." the dutch, the germans, and the french seem to be holding back, saying, "no, let'sjust say ip should not be an obstacle to vaccine equity." here in cornwall, a number of ngos are hoping to have their say on proceedings, including the urgency of tackling global poverty. ruth valerio is an environmentalist, theologian and director of global advocacy at disaster relief and development charity, tea rfund. she told me what she wants the g7 leaders to conclude. we want to see 0.7 being put back again by the uk government. - 0.7 gdp? 0.7 gdp, which is a budget-

going toward some of the poorest communities in the world. we know we've been hearing that, as that money is cut, _ fewer girls are going to schools, more vaccines are sitting - on shelves that aren't - being delivered, other health services aren't able to happen. boris johnson wants to be seen as a global leader. l this is an absolutely crucial year for so many issues. i that won't happen if he's a man who breaks his promises — - above all, breaks his promises i to some of the most marginalised communities in the world. but wouldn't he say, "when we made this commitment in the manifesto, we weren't facing a pandemic, we've gone up an awful amount of debt." last week, british viewers would say we couldn't afford to put £10 billion into schools to help students get up to speed. so should we be spending that sort of money on people overseas? well, yesterday, i heard i

boris johnson talking very positively about our economy - and about the economy bouncing back. and the aid cuts have come at a time when others are facing a double - whammy of covid and climate. so now is not the time for us to be turning our backs - on our global neighbours. there is also £450 million of new money, we are told, that's going towards children's education. is that outside the 0.5 that- the international aid budget now is? well, it's "new money", - but let's put that in the context of the cut which is the equivalent of about £5 billion. _ so it might be a little . bit of new money here, but then you've got a huge amount of aid cuts — so it's a drop in the ocean- and really doesn't mean anything. le'ts talk about climate change, i because of course, this does affect the poorest communities —j there are 47 of the poorest

nations around the world who were promised £100 billion, i think, at the paris climate agreement. earlier. laughter. and still, we're trying to get up to that mark — which is where the cynicism comes from in something like this. yeah, that's right. the finance minister. last week recommitted to delivering that £100 billion. but let's remember, _ that was committed in 2009 and it still hasn't been delivered. so this weekend, we need to see a plan for it- to be delivered quickly —i but then we mustn't stop and think that we've done it, because that should've been| done years ago. we now need to be focusing - on what other money we can release in order to support the lower and middle income countries as they face the brunt of the climate crisis. i

we've been talking to someone from the union project earlier, and he said he really did see common purpose and a real focus on climate change at last night's dinner. he recognised that the uk is actually leading from the front, and i think we are about to get a new green initiative and framework for investment in developing countries. is it time for other g7 countries to follow in the uk's example? yeah, i'm really encouraged to hear that from tim schmidt. _ earlier this year, the uk ended their financing i of overseas fossil fuels — _ a brilliant example that we now need to see the other g7 nations following that lead, - and also ending their support . to overseas fossil fuel projects. the leaders have been on the beach tonight for a barbecue and informal get—together. around open campfires, they've had crab claws, lobster, scallops, also marshmallows and brandy butter, and they've been serenaded on the beach as well. also

denmark's christian eriksen collapses on the pitch during their euro 2020 match with finland. he's been transferred to hospital and has been stabilised. and at the g7 summit in cornwall, world leaders are being asked to commit to the carbis bay declaration — a global health initiative aimed at preventing future pandemics. let's stay in cornwall now where that g7 summit is taking place — and whilst there, borisjohnson told the bbc there are grounds for caution ahead of a final decision on monday about the lifting of all remaining covid restrictions in england. increasing concern about the spread of the delta variant which first emerged in india has led to speculation of a delay of up to four weeks. 0ur political editor, laura kuenssberg spoke to the prime minister in cornwall. inside the fence, the prime minister and his counterparts want to work out how to move on from covid.

but it's still a clear threat outside the gates. the virus is growing again. the prime minister's hopes of lifting all limits on our lives in a week are burning under the bright sun. today, borisjohnson was not denying that there will be a delay. can you level with people today and confirm that the restrictions are not all going to be lifted on 21 june? what i can certainly say is that we are looking at the data and will continue to do that, and we'll say more on monday when the decision comes due. but i think what you can certainly take, laura, is that the roadmap is always cautious but irreversible, and in order to have an irreversible roadmap, you've got to be cautious. if your priority is not having to go back on any of it, then waiting is the right thing to do, you're suggesting? of course, you're right that you've got to be cautious in order to deliver what we want to see, which is an irreversible roadmap,

but we are looking at the data today, again, you've got hospitalisations up, you've got cases up, there are grounds for caution. it doesn't mean that this country hasn't made enormous progress with vaccination. clearly what you've got is a race between the vaccines and the virus, and the vaccines are going to win, it is just a question of pace. do you regret allowing tens of thousands of people to travel between the uk and india, where the delta variant developed, in the month of april — you must regret that? don't forget that we put india on the red list... very late on. on 23 april, before the variant had even been identified as a variant under investigation, let alone as a variant of concern. big decisions loom at home, but there was full force she whoose

tonight, with a world leaders family barbecue on the beach. a beer and a pint for the french premiere, and the prime minister, even though in the day, european leaders had emphasised their distaste at how they believed the uk is not sticking to the brexit deal when it comes to northern ireland. angela merkel looked to be happily inspecting things, but the uk side reckon it is brussels that is over the top. —— inspecting the macro. —— mackerel. to be fair, there is quite a lot of misunderstanding around the eu about the situation in northern ireland and i think that we will have some pragmatic solutions, and if we don't, it is the prime duty of the uk government to uphold the territorial integrity of the united kingdom. and that is what we're going to do. and we will do whatever it takes to ensure that. but look — the uk left almost nothing to chance, in the meticulous choreography of this summit. forget the queen or the red

carpets — a stunning flyby of the red arrows. the prime minister wants nothing less than a new formation of the world's democracies. the commitment to that from those here seems real, but the intricate ins and outs of different national agendas doesn't fit easily into one line. one big ambition, but there are many pilots, and a pattern we can't predict. laura kuenssberg, bbc news, cornwall. a lobster fisherman in the united states has decribed being partially swallowed by a whale as he was out diving. michael packard, from cape cod in the state of massachusetts, says he felt a huge bump and everything went dark. he began struggling until the creature spat him out. aruna iyengar has the story. he's sore and limping a little, but he's lived to tell the tale. michael packard, a lobster diver for 40 years, was out diving with his friend

when he was swallowed by a whale. all of a sudden, ijust felt this huge bump, and everything went dark, and i could sense that i was moving, and i was like, "oh, my god, did ijust get bitten by a shark?" and i was actually in his mouth probably a good 30 seconds. but i still had my regulator in my mouth, i was still breathing. and i wasjust wondering, actually, one of the things that went through my mind wasjust, "my god, what if he does swallow me? and here i am, i'm breathing air, am i am going to breathe in this whale's mouth until my air runs out?" crazy stuff. i thought to myself, "ok, this is it." this is, i'm finally... i'm going to die."

and i thought about my kids and my wife. and really, there was no getting out of there. it was... and then all of a sudden, he went up to the surface and just erupted and started shaking his head, and ijust got thrown in the air and landed in the water, and i was free, and ijust floated there. luckily, his diving mate was on hand to rescue him. scientists say humpback whales don't attack humans, and this one must have gulped up the diver by mistake while feeding. others have come up close with these usually timid creatures. last november, this kayaker in california had a close encounter. michael thinks he dislocated his knee. his legs are bruised, but he's now been discharged from hospital. while in the whale's mouth, he says he thought of his family. they really don't want me to be a diver, but it's my passion, and they respect that. they know there's nothing

they can do about it, and as soon as i'm healed up, i'll be back in the water. aruna iyengar, bbc news. you're watching bbc news. now it's time for a look at the weather with darren bett. hello there. the first half of the weekend saw temperatures reaching 25 degrees in hampshire. the second half of the weekend will be warmer across the uk, and it will be feeling more humid as well. we've got high pressure building up from the azores. that's bringing with it the heat and the humidity and, for many parts of the country, dry weather, too. but there is a weather front that will be heading towards the north west of scotland, where we've already got some pockets of rain and drizzle, early on sunday morning. elsewhere, though, it's going to be dry. sunshine at times for england and wales, some areas of cloud. should get more sunshine breaking out in northern ireland, and much of scotland seeing some sunshine away from the north west, where it turns wetter during the afternoon. here, the pollen levels won't be quite so high,

but across england and wales, very high pollen levels, grass pollen at this time of the year, helped by the heat and humidity. now, it's going to be a warmer day in northern ireland. could make 26 degrees in aberdeenshire, and for the midlands towards the south east of england, 27, possibly 28 degrees. it's going to be a muggy game of football at wembley. that heat and humidity ahead of that weather front, which brings rain down across scotland and northern ireland on sunday night. by the time the rain reaches northern england, there's not much left. that rain peters out, and a band of cloud will head its way towards the south east. sunshine follows on behind. showers in the north and west of scotland, and it's cooler, fresher air that's coming in behind that band of cloud for many parts of the country, except towards the south east, where we've still got the heat and humidity and we could make 30 degrees for the first time this year. may start to feel a little cooler and fresher as we head into monday evening. and as we move into tuesday, we've still got another area of high pressure building across the uk,

keeping most places dry. but a next weather system is again pushing in from the atlantic. and that means some stronger winds developing in scotland and northern ireland, increasing cloud, some rain towards the north west of scotland. more in the way of sunshine, though, and strong sunshine for england and wales. and those temperatures in many areas beginning to climb once again on tuesday, although it won't be as warm as monday in the south east of england. looking further ahead, scotland and northern ireland does turn cooler. we get a spell of rain midweek. but as the heat and humidity builds in england and wales, that could trigger some heavy rain and the potential for some thunderstorms as well.

hello. this is bbc news with me, lukwesa burak. we'll be taking a look at tomorrow morning's papers in a moment. first, the headlines —

shock at the euros this evening as denmark's christian eriksen collapses on the pitch during their match against finland. eriksen is now in hospital in a stable condition. the match between denmark and finland later resumed, with finland beating denmark 1—0. the lifting of england's remaining coronavirus restrictions could be delayed by up to four weeks as the prime minister says it's a race between the spike in cases and vaccines. you've got to be cautious in order to deliver what we want to see, which is an irreversible road map, but we're looking at the data today and again you've got hospitalisations up, you've got cases up. the prime minister says there is a "lot of misunderstanding" from the eu about northern ireland trade as tensions over the issue hang over his talks with fellow european leaders.
