modesty. he never saw himself as a great man, he always was modest. he was good with other people, he was very good motivating people, engineers, so forth. so therefore he had that skill, and everybody believed him and everybody trusted him, that's the other thing, and he chose good people, and they stayed with him. many of the williams people are still in the team, because of where frank brought them. so he brought people along, he built people, and really, i think i can't say enough for frank. i mean, frank was just one of those very special people. he was a great brit, he was so proud of great britain, and when he got his knighthood, it was the biggest thing that could ever have happened in his life. it was wonderful and it was great he got that, great privilege.

i want to bring you some news into us, at the bbc, and a 14—year—old boy has been charged with the murder of 12—year—old ava white. now, ava white was stabbed in liverpool city centre on thursday, as the christmas lights were being switched on, and merseyside police have just announced that a 14—year—old boy has been charged with her murder. we will of course bring you any more news, as we get it, but, a 14—year—old boy has been charged with the murder of 12—year—old ava white, she was stabbed in liverpool city centre, on thursday evening, as the christmas lights were being switched on. we can bring you up—to—date with the weather now.

change is afoot. this is a warm front across scotland and northern ireland on monday morning. a widespread ice risk for parts of scotland and england. that front will be pushing outbreaks of rain preceded by hills snow and sleet in scotland in the morning and it gradually goes south and turns into patchy rain for northern ireland and into the far north of england. cloud increasing elsewhere from east anglia to dorset is where the sunshine will be held on to most. highs of nine or 10 celsius. overnight, cloud increases, pushing that milder air across the uk. we will see outbreaks of rain and drizzle. look at the temperatures on tuesday, frost free for most. much milder day on tuesday bringing rain at times. the cold air returns as we head into wednesday but also with some wintry showers. goodbye.

hello and welcome to our look ahead to what the the papers will be bringing us tomorrow. with me arejoe mayes, uk politics reporter with bloomberg and anne ashworth, property and personal finance commentator. let's take a look at some of tomorrow's front pages. the guardian reports that the covid booster vaccination scheme could be significantly expanded to try and combat the spread of the omicron variant. the times also focusses on the booster programme — saying ministers have insisted that people should continue with christmas plans as normal as a turbo—charged booster programme would deal with the new variant. the metro's front page looks at the new rules on wearing face masks being brought in on public transport — as measures are increased to fight the new covid strain. the telegraph is also

leading on these new measures — saying the self isolation rules for close contacts of people with the omicron variant will lead to chaos in schools. the financial times focusses on the flurry of travel restrictions that have come in across the globe — in an attempt to curb the transmission of the variant. so let's begin... welcome to you both. we shall start with the metro. cover up, protect others, it's not too much to mask. we can see what they've done there. this is really a focus on the new rules to wear face coverings on public transport. the question is, how compliant do you think people will be? it’ll how compliant do you think people will be? �* , , , will be? it'll be very interesting to see how— will be? it'll be very interesting to see how this _ will be? it'll be very interesting to see how this particular- will be? it'll be very interesting i to see how this particular measure unfolds because i was on a london bus this morning and i would estimate that around a third of

people were wearing a mask. some roots there is a lot more compliance with the rule because you are supposed to be wearing masks still on public transport. however, if there are already some grumblings from the unions over this because he was supposed to impose this rule, who will police it, and who will say to people you have to get off the bus or the train if you aren't wearing a mask? however, it does probably ask the nation to be growing up about this, just put on a mask if they want to get out of this in any kind of easy way. i mean, one of the most interesting things about the prime minister's statement yesterday was this is what we are doing for the moment. he was essentially asking the nation to be more careful or tighter regulations could come into force. it is

interesting, _ could come into force. it is interesting, isn't _ could come into force. it is interesting, isn't it, - could come into force. it is interesting, isn't it, joe, i could come into force. it is interesting, isn't it, joe, because people have had a taste of freedom since july people have had a taste of freedom sincejuly and people have had a taste of freedom since july and the people have had a taste of freedom sincejuly and the question is, are they willing to give it up? yes. since july and the question is, are they willing to give it up? yes, and they willing to give it up? yes, and the uk has — they willing to give it up? yes, and the uk has been _ they willing to give it up? yes, and the uk has been running _ they willing to give it up? yes, and the uk has been running its - the uk has been running its coronavirus situation by being quite open _ coronavirus situation by being quite open are _ coronavirus situation by being quite open are not that strict on masks compared — open are not that strict on masks compared to other places. it'll be interesting to see if the uk goes back to — interesting to see if the uk goes back to a — interesting to see if the uk goes back to a similar set of rules. many people _ back to a similar set of rules. many people weren't wearing masks in the shops— people weren't wearing masks in the shops today. we are really testing people _ shops today. we are really testing people is — shops today. we are really testing people is metal and willingness to comply— people is metal and willingness to comply with rules that we've been with approaching 18 months now. it's a real— with approaching 18 months now. it's a real test_ with approaching 18 months now. it's a real test of peoples willingness i’ilht a real test of peoples willingness right now — a real test of peoples willingness riahtnow. , , �*, ., right now. absolutely. let's turn to the ft. omicron _ right now. absolutely. let's turn to the ft. omicron sparks _ right now. absolutely. let's turn to the ft. omicron sparks a _ right now. absolutely. let's turn to the ft. omicron sparks a flurry - right now. absolutely. let's turn to the ft. omicron sparks a flurry of. the ft. omicron sparks a flurry of travel restrictions around the globe, and, this is after the three cases were detected in the uk. —— anne. the who has asked for orders

to remain open and a balanced response but many countries aren't necessarily taking notice of that, aren't they?— necessarily taking notice of that, aren't the ? , ., ., , ., aren't they? they are not. they are absolutely overlooking _ aren't they? they are not. they are absolutely overlooking what - aren't they? they are not. they are absolutely overlooking what the - aren't they? they are not. they are l absolutely overlooking what the who is saying and israel has closed its borders. switzerland will be asking people to quarantine for ten days. all over the world from saudi arabia to parts of europe, more restrictions are being imposed on travel. i think there is evidently a great wish among governments not to be seen in this instance to react too slowly to the omicron variant because we remember the central criticisms at the start of the coronavirus, the government responded too slowly, they all now want to be seen to be moved fast and to restrict access in some way or

another. i think we can expect more of this in the days to come. the another. i think we can expect more of this in the days to come.- of this in the days to come. the ft reminds us — of this in the days to come. the ft reminds us that _ of this in the days to come. the ft reminds us that the _ of this in the days to come. the ft reminds us that the uk _ of this in the days to come. the ft reminds us that the uk has - of this in the days to come. the ft i reminds us that the uk has convened a meeting of g7 health ministers tomorrow and it'll be interesting to see what comes out of that. it will, es. see what comes out of that. it will, yes- what's — see what comes out of that. it will, yes. what's true _ see what comes out of that. it will, yes. what's true at _ see what comes out of that. it will, yes. what's true at this _ see what comes out of that. it will, yes. what's true at this point - see what comes out of that. it will, yes. what's true at this point in - yes. what's true at this point in time _ yes. what's true at this point in time is — yes. what's true at this point in time is how— yes. what's true at this point in time is how dangerous the omicron variant— time is how dangerous the omicron variant is— time is how dangerous the omicron variant is in— time is how dangerous the omicron variant is in terms of hospitalisations and deaths. it is more _ hospitalisations and deaths. it is more transmissible than the delta variant _ more transmissible than the delta variant. we don't know so much about how threatening it is to peoples lives _ how threatening it is to peoples lives. early evidence is it isn't. if lives. early evidence is it isn't. if that's — lives. early evidence is it isn't. if that's true that'll be welcome but scientists and health ministers are watching this very closely right now around the world. the guardian has a story — now around the world. the guardian has a story about _ now around the world. the guardian has a story about boosters. - now around the world. the guardian has a story about boosters. booster| has a story about boosters. booster scheme may be widened to tackle the omicron spread. they are saying that the booster vaccination scheme could be significantly expanded as early

as tomorrow as ministers try to combat the variant. it'll be interesting to see if that does happen because i know the government's vaccines watchdog met over the weekend. it'll be a question of timing, won't it? there is ho -e question of timing, won't it? there is hepe that _ question of timing, won't it? there is hope that the _ question of timing, won't it? there is hope that the joint _ question of timing, won't it? there is hope that the joint committee i question of timing, won't it? ties is hope that the joint committee on vaccines will advise that the booster vaccine be available to younger age groups. i think this might be a time when people would be keen to take it up. because we have been slightly relaxed about covid. people have been going about their business, going out, thinking that covid has finished. well, it hasn't. we may be done with covid but it hasn't with us. the similar situation will encourage, i think, people the offer of a boost if it is available. i think this is a moment

for the government to start it off with younger age groups and people should seize the opportunity to get the booster. should seize the opportunity to get the booster-— the booster. yes. it may be that... there may — the booster. yes. it may be that... there may be _ the booster. yes. it may be that... there may be the _ the booster. yes. it may be that... there may be the cut _ the booster. yes. it may be that... there may be the cut in _ the booster. yes. it may be that... there may be the cut in the - the booster. yes. it may be that... there may be the cut in the six - there may be the cut in the six month wait between the second and the booster doses. the guardian is reporting that may be announced, as well. , . . reporting that may be announced, as well. , ., ., ., , , well. yes, and there are many people who i well. yes, and there are many people who i know — well. yes, and there are many people who i know who _ well. yes, and there are many people who i know who want _ well. yes, and there are many people who i know who want to _ well. yes, and there are many people who i know who want to get _ well. yes, and there are many people who i know who want to get their - who i know who want to get their booster _ who i know who want to get their booster but they fall outside the six month time period and can't at the moment. that is probably likely. it's interesting that the government want the _ it's interesting that the government want the decision to be made but they have — want the decision to be made but they have the independent control over it _ they have the independent control over it so — they have the independent control over it so we need to wait for that one _ over it so we need to wait for that one this— over it so we need to wait for that one. this peace talks about the omicron — one. this peace talks about the omicron cases in the uk and contact traces _ omicron cases in the uk and contact traces are _ omicron cases in the uk and contact traces are looking for contact ten days— traces are looking for contact ten days ago. — traces are looking for contact ten days ago, showing that this variant might— days ago, showing that this variant might have been in the uk longer than we _ might have been in the uk longer than we would have liked, and it could _ than we would have liked, and it could he —

than we would have liked, and it could be more widespread, which is something — could be more widespread, which is something to look out for. you make a aood something to look out for. you make a good point- — something to look out for. you make a good point- the — something to look out for. you make a good point. the guardian _ something to look out for. you make a good point. the guardian is - something to look out for. you make a good point. the guardian is also i a good point. the guardian is also reporting on this third case of somebody with the variant who stayed in westminster but left the uk before the test result emerged. officials have said they were in the central london borough rather than being specifically linked to parliament, which i hadn't read before. let's turn to the telegraph. they are leading with the idea of schools. we know from tomorrow pupils in year seven and above will be told to wear face coverings in communal areas along with staff and other people visiting the school. but the telegraph take on this is that some mps are warning that this variant will lead to chaos in schools. why is that? variant will lead to chaos in schools. wh is that? , , ., schools. why is that? there seems to be some fear — schools. why is that? there seems to be some fear that _ schools. why is that? there seems to be some fear that you _ schools. why is that? there seems to be some fear that you will— schools. why is that? there seems to be some fear that you will have - be some fear that you will have healthy children isolating and missing more school because, let's remember, the rule is if you've been

in close contact with somebody with the variant you are supposed to isolate for ten days. that means you might have substantial numbers of children self isolating and we are coming up to mock exams, and also all of those events that take place at the end of term, we are coming towards the period for school trips, nativity plays, and one of the things that has been... that we felt really good about was seeing children back in schools. i think there are some concerns about that being disruptive. i think it is quite interesting when i read today that some mps would like to debate all of these measures in parliament on thursday but it doesn't look as if they are going to get a chance. it is interesting because earlier this year the telegraph launched a campaign calling for an end to disruption in schools and four children to be, as they put it, at

the heart of policy making. —— for children. it's interesting they have chosen to go with this angle of this story, isn't it? i chosen to go with this angle of this story. isn't it?— story, isn't it? i think this is an anule of story, isn't it? i think this is an angle of such _ story, isn't it? i think this is an angle of such relevance - story, isn't it? i think this is an angle of such relevance to - story, isn't it? i think this is an angle of such relevance to so l angle of such relevance to so many people _ angle of such relevance to so many people as — angle of such relevance to so many people. as anne said, there could be such disruption, that fx parents, they have — such disruption, that fx parents, they have to stay home to look after their kids _ they have to stay home to look after their kids. that affects the economy. there is a domino effect here which— economy. there is a domino effect here which could affect a wide parts of society — here which could affect a wide parts of society. —— and that affects parents — of society. —— and that affects parents. there could be a change to the rules, _ parents. there could be a change to the rules, which is something the mps are _ the rules, which is something the mps are pushing for, and i wouldn't be surprised because of the amount of disruption we might see. the times is of disruption we might see. tie: times is focusing on boosters for every adult. the proposed announcement we think is coming as early as tomorrow. they put the spin on it in a bid to save christmas. but you can't help thinking the politicians are going to be very

keen that what happened last year isn't repeated this year?— keen that what happened last year isn't repeated this year? that's the wish of the — isn't repeated this year? that's the wish of the government. _ isn't repeated this year? that's the wish of the government. what - isn't repeated this year? that's the wish of the government. what will| isn't repeated this year? that's the i wish of the government. what will be interesting to observe how this happens is that we've got sajid javid as health minister, he is a former chancellor, will he be tremendously aware of ways in which he has to defend the economy at the same time as making sure that we tackle the variant properly? this is going to be extraordinarily interesting, this week of politics, we have a by—election happening in bexley on thursday, and just how the different forces within the government play out, how far we go, and sajid javid was very keen to say this morning that we were nowhere near lock downs, not anywhere close, but i wonder if everybody is thinking, will christmas be quite the same as we thought it might be?

who knows. we don't have a crystal ball. picking up on what anne said, sajid javid said social distance rules came with a heavy cost on the economy, as well as on peoples social lives and mental health. the government trying to articulate both sides of the argument, isn't it? yes, not only are we far from lock downs. _ yes, not only are we far from lock downs. but — yes, not only are we far from lock downs, but also far from bringing back social — downs, but also far from bringing back social distancing and home—working. clearly he thinks quite _ home—working. clearly he thinks quite strongly as anne was saying about— quite strongly as anne was saying about the — quite strongly as anne was saying about the economic consequences of these _ about the economic consequences of these policies, and more so the change — these policies, and more so the change of— these policies, and more so the change of personnel from matt hancock, — change of personnel from matt hancock, that matters here, and he doesn't _ hancock, that matters here, and he doesn't want to harm the economy unnecessarily come in his view. the response _ unnecessarily come in his view. the response to — unnecessarily come in his view. the response to that question, why are you going — response to that question, why are you going further, why are you being more _ you going further, why are you being more expensive? welcome he is concerned — more expensive? welcome he is concerned about the economy and i e>

will be more people planning to get into boats, coerced by traffickers, and, yes, another issue that is facing us. this is turning out to be quite a month, december, isuspect. this interview that the french interior minister has given to the guardian, it underlines the frosting is of the relationship between the two countries at the moment, doesn't it? , , , ., two countries at the moment, doesn't it? , ,, ., two countries at the moment, doesn't it? , ,, two countries at the moment, doesn't it? yes, it speaks to a lack of trust and _ it? yes, it speaks to a lack of trust and may _ it? yes, it speaks to a lack of trust and may be _ it? yes, it speaks to a lack of trust and may be respect - it? yes, it speaks to a lack of trust and may be respect at l it? yes, it speaks to a lack of. trust and may be respect at this point _ trust and may be respect at this point in — trust and may be respect at this point in time. the interior minister saying _ point in time. the interior minister saying in— point in time. the interior minister saying in private the uk are very constructive, then in public they are playing to their domestic base, playing _ are playing to their domestic base, playing to — are playing to their domestic base, playing to the tabloid newspapers, and it _ playing to the tabloid newspapers, and it creates a terrible atmosphere to try _ and it creates a terrible atmosphere to try and _ and it creates a terrible atmosphere to try and resolve this thorny the french— to try and resolve this thorny the french dis- — to try and resolve this thorny the french dis— invited to priti patel from _ french dis— invited to priti patel from a — french dis— invited to priti patel from a meeting this week as a response _ from a meeting this week as a response to boris johnson from a meeting this week as a response to borisjohnson publishing a letter— response to borisjohnson publishing a letter to— response to borisjohnson publishing a letter to emmanuel macron. both sides— a letter to emmanuel macron. both sides could — a letter to emmanuel macron. both sides could be more adult about how they go— sides could be more adult about how they go about this. there was a

this building in iceland, a huge digital artwork and this slamming basketball block all have in common? ah, our most loyal viewers might know! yes, they will. they've all turned up in our attempts to explain the blockchain — the buzzword of the decade, the thing that every business needs. does it really? no, but go with me. and the thing that's currently burning through more electricity than the country of argentina as people use blockchain technology to try and get rich on cryptocurrency. so, the blockchain is a way of storing ownership records. it can prove that you own a bitcoin, a house or even a video clip. that proof is a unique token that is non—changeable, non—fungible — it's a non—fungible token, or nft. personally, i've always been sceptical of whether nfts are a sensible idea, but there are plenty of people who've bought into them, literally. ownership rights for some digital artworks have gone

for millions of dollars, and collins dictionary has just made nft its word of the year. and just last week, a new development — a group of people got together and tried to crowdfund enough money to buy a printed copy of the us constitution at auction. they were outbid despite claiming to raise $40 million. but had they been successful, each of the thousands of contributors would've had the right to vote on what happened to the historic document next. so they could vote to put it on public display. oooh! they could vote to sell it on, or anything in between. yes, and whatever they voted to do would have been handled by a decentralised autonomous organisation - a dao. but what on earth does that mean? a dao is similar in some ways to some of these financial flash mobs or crowdsourcing activities, where you get a bunch of people coming together, they put some money

into something to buy an asset. the difference is that in one of those activities, there are people who are recognise — recognisably running the show and are in charge of thinking it through. in a dao, we are defining it all upfront and then we're letting it run its own course. and this idea can be used for anything. a group of people have got together on the internet to raise funds for a dao to buy this area of woodland in wiltshire, in the south of england, and they can decide how it's managed. so a dao is a way of setting up an organisation that is — that uses the blockchain to sort of manage membership and let people organise around a particular cause or project. the treedao is this project to buy a woodland and then let the local community sort of take control of that woodland and vote on what happens to it, using the blockchain, using smart contracts. smart contracts, they sort of run automatically, so instead of having to appoint a treasurer and a secretary, people can use their membership tokens to vote on things.

it's about being able to determine that you hold a vote in the governance of the forest, so you can determine, you know, what's allowed to happen here and you can vote on, you know, making sure it doesn't get turned into firewood. i've been fascinated by the technology and how daos is a new way of organising people around projects and i really wanted to see what you could do in terms of — like, there are daos that, you know, just live on the blockchain and don't interface with the real world, and i really wanted to see what you could do, whether a dao could own a real—world asset like a forest, and so this was sort of an experiment to see how this sort of new blockchain technology could interface with the real world. and i was just very lucky that, you know, i sent out a tweet on monday morning and we'd raised 100 f — which at the time was about £100,000 — by thursday morning, and then we had to go and find a forest to buy, so we actually raised the money before we — before we started looking for a forest. yeah, a dao could be used for — for anything. it could be used for organising around a particular cause, or you could buy a football team or you could use it to advocate

for a particular change in the law. it — like, i think daos are gonna be a new way of people organising for sort of any — any reason, really. anyone can buy into the forest by purchasing an nft. it'll come with the gps co—ordinates of an exact spot in the woodland. but if people who live locally buy in, it also means that they have a say in an area that they use and love. i mean, one of the — one of the joys of the internet has always been that you can raise your hand and find people like you, wherever they are in the world. you know, tisbury�*s catchment area's like 6,000 people. the advantage of this is that we can reach to anybody as far as you like who wants to protect woodlands. yeah, as you walk around the, you know, the woodland, as an owner, you know, it — it's subtle, but a really important, you know, feeling. like, it feels like it's ours and i think the exciting thing is we can now bring that sense of �*ourness' to other people — anyone who becomes an nftree holder. we've been waiting for this for 20 years and, you know, here it is. like everything to do with crypto and blockchain, there is a huge buyer beware

to getting involved. some initiatives are legitimate, but others are scams, and sometimes, it can be very hard to tell the difference. treedao says that what it's doing shows how this new way of running things could be used responsibly and effectively. but it's early days for these ideas, so what daos really end up being used for could surprise us all. now, do you remember yourfirst mobile phone? oh, the nostalgia and the battery life! well, now, over 2,000 old models have been put in a mobile phone museum for safekeeping. and although it is generally an online venue, chris fox went to its glitzy london launch this week. i'm here at the launch of the mobile phone museum in london, a collection of more than 2,000 unique mobile phones from history, and i'm here with the curator, ben wood. you're gonna to take me down

a little trip on memory lane. i'd love to show you all 2,120 phones, but what we're gonna do today is pick a few out, and we've got some collections that we've curated for the museum tonight, and the first one is what we consider one of the ugliest phones in the collection. oh, ok! wow. whoever designed this will be upset! oh, not this! laughs now, i think i knew people at school who had this and it looks very cool, but just totally impractical to text on. so this is the nokia 7600. it was nokia's first commercial 3g phone and, as you said, it was at the time when texting was very popular and i guess there was an idea that you could text using your thumbs down the side, but it was counter—intuitive. but look at it — i mean, it's not really a thing of beauty. other phones in the ugly collection include the ntt personal, which won a design award back in 1995, but due to its shape is now known as �*the toilet seat phone'. and this is the i—kid�*s sf from 2006, which has rabbit ears

to make it appeal to children. 0h! gasps wait, is this...? is this from tomorrow never dies? it is! ah! i love this! and this must open up into... gasps i remember this — you can drag yourfinger across and drive the car. also, we have the fingerprint scanner here, so you may remember in the film that was done. also, there was a magical screwdriver that you could use to open a safe. does it also do the, "recall, three, send"? the piece de resistance, which is very difficult to make in a model... yeah! the taser! both laugh other movie phones in the collection include the nokia 8110 banana phone from the matrix, nokia's first slider phone. the version in the movie was spring—loaded but the real one, you had to open by hand. and this white sony ericsson is another bond phone — this one owned by vesper lynd

in casino royale. i want to show you a phone which was the phone which the first mobile phone call in the uk was made on. this is the vodafone vti. a phone call was made onjanuary 1, 1985. so the numbers are on here... yep! ..and then you... hello? just check out the weight. oh — oh, wow, ok. so where do i put the apps? oh, you might struggle with the apps on that one! this was my favourite category because there were so many world firsts, like the ibm simon, blending computer—style features with a phone. it's widely considered one of the first smartphones of a sort — although it wasn't branded as one in 1993. sharp's j—phone from the year 2000 is considered by the museum to be the first full—camera phone. terribly low resolution by today's standards, but it sold out in two weeks injapan. it had a mirror on the back

for taking selfies. first android looked very different from today's phones with a full physical keyboard, but in many ways, the first iphone doesn't look that different from today's devices. and this was the first pocketable phone from 1986, at a time when mobiles were typically still bricks. its designer, nils martensson, was one of the special guests i met at the museum. we had commissioned stanford research in america to forecast how many cellular telephones there would be in america year 2000. and they came back with the expensive report and said, "we think that there may be as many as 30,000 in america "by year 2000." and i think had they said 30 million, they would have been a little off the mark, even with that figure.

everyone's going to know this one. we're on bestsellers. is it going to be the 3310? let's see. there it is, yep. old and trusty. trusty and hardy. 3310. controversial — i actually think the 3210 looks better. that's the one i had and i never upgraded because i thought the other one looked — like, this looked cheapersomehow, but... but a phenomenal commercial success — 126 million phones sold, the equivalent of the japanese population. every single person would have one. it's iconic. and do you know what? it's the one phone, when i take it to the museum and show people, everyone knows the 3310. and that's it for the short version of the programme. the full—length show can be found on iplayer. and throughout the week, you can keep up with the team on social media. find us on youtube, instagram, facebook and twitter — @bbcclick. thanks for watching. bye—bye.

welcome to newsday, reporting live from singapore, i'm karishma vaswani. the headlines... as the new omicron covid variant spreads to several more countries — the south african president criticises the decision to put his country on the international red list. these restrictions are completely unjustified and unfairly discriminate against our country and our southern african sister countries. britain is calling a meeting of g7 health ministers to discuss how to deal with the omicron strain. how a kurdish father of three in northern iraq fears his whole family were among those who drowned in the channel.
