premier league title, but their manager says his manchester champions aren't the best team around. good morning. some potentially disruptive weather today across the northern half of the country with gales, even severe gales, some rain, sleet, thunder and lightning and also some snow. further south, the fund will clear and then brightening up fund will clear and then brightening up sunshine and showers. it's thursday 10th february. our main story. borisjohnson is embarking on a fresh round of diplomacy in belgium and poland, amid fears of a russian invasion of ukraine. in brussels, the prime minister will tell nato�*s secretary general that britain is putting 1,000 troops on standby in case of a humanitarian crisis. he'll then travel to warsaw to meet poland's prime minister and president. separately, the labour leader, sir keir starmer, will also have talks in brussels.

0ur political editor, laura kuenssberg, reports. russia has been amassing troops on a snowy border. ukraine and its neighbours worried aboutjust what might come next. the uk's leaders, hoping today to show their support. the prime minister and the labour leader will both be on foreign soil today. in brussels, the prime minister will promise 1000 more british troops in the region to be ready to help if everything goes wrong. if a humanitarian crisis unfolds. this is exactly what the uk government should be doing and this is what eastern allies of the uk, of your atlantic partners, are looking for. poland, the uk and ukraine have agreement they will be mutually supporting each other throughout this crisis, and this is what the uk needs to do, the prime minister needs to show leadership on this, even if the uk

is no longer in the eu, that the uk is in fact a major player in europe. keir starmer is visiting the nato hq as well to send a similar message, that labour would be prepared to stand firm against russian aggression as well. but he hopes as well to send a different message. things have changed since jeremy corbyn�*s time in charge. the uk may not be the decider in what happens next on europe's edges. but its political leaders, both in their different ways, want to show the uk can lead. that report from our political editor, laura kuenssberg. we'll be joined by defence minister ben wallace at 7:30 and also by shadow defence secretary, john healeyjust before 7am. the metropolitan police is to begin contacting more than 50 people as part of its inquiry into lockdown parties at downing street and whitehall with the prime minister and his wife,

carriejohnson, expected to be included. it comes after a leaked photograph of borisjohnson at a christmas quiz shows staff in party hats, with a bottle of sparkling wine on the table. 0ur political correspondent chris mason joins us now. good morning. 0k, good morning. ok, so this photograph is a new photograph of the party we had seen with a previous photograph? yes, that's right. we had seen a previous photograph involving the prime minister, a bloke with tinsel around his neck, someone elsejust kind of half out of shot with a santa hat on. this is a different image from the same view, which does include this opened bottle of sparkling wine. and it gives a greater impression of it being a party. not that it looked like a conventional work meeting, it has to be said, in the first photo, that this certainly offers a context which wasn't there before. it appeared bang in the middle of prime

minister's questions yesterday, the prime minister confronted by it by a couple of labour mps halfway through. meanwhile as you are mentioning, these e—mails are about to drop in the inbox of around 50 people who have been at these various whitehall and downing street do during the pandemic, the metropolitan police calling it operation in helmand, looking into alleged breaches of the law, —— operation hillman, looking at if people have reasonable excuses to be at these things when they should not have been happening. the police talk about it as a questionnaire which gives it a slightly fluffy feel but they acknowledge publicly that this document being sent out has legal status. they expect truthful and honest replies within seven days and then there is the prospect of a fixed penalty notice being handed out to those who at these parties. they are looking at around 12

different events, we think the prime minister might have been at six of them. downing street is promising it will let us know if borisjohnson is fined. will let us know if boris johnson is fined. . ., , ., ~ fined. 0k, waiting and seeing. thank ou ve fined. 0k, waiting and seeing. thank you very much. _ fined. 0k, waiting and seeing. thank you very much, chris. _ two cats owned by the west ham defender kurt zouma have been taken into the care of the rspca, after videos emerged on social media showing the 27—year old hitting, dropping and kicking one of them. 0ur reporter matt gravelling is at the london stadium for us this morning. good morning. tell us what response there has been from the club. goad there has been from the club. good mornin: , there has been from the club. good morning, charlie. _ there has been from the club. good morning, charlie. we _ there has been from the club. good morning, charlie. we can _ there has been from the club. (13mm morning, charlie. we can tell there has been from the club. (emf. morning, charlie. we can tell you this morning that the club have told us that an internal investigation is still under way, us that an internal investigation is still underway, but us that an internal investigation is still under way, but there have been a lot more developments yesterday in this story following a video which first emerged on monday of the french international heating and kicking a catz. there was huge public outcry on this and then the following day, tuesday, here against

watford, it raised a few eyebrows when kurt zouma was in the team sheet and played the whole 90 minutes in the 1—0 win, gary lineker saying it was a tone deaf decision and chris packham, the wildlife expert, saying it was a disgrace. since the rspca has taken the cats away, two cats from kurt zouma and there is an investigation being carried out by the police. but there is a petition of more than quarter of a million people asking for a prosecution for kurt zouma and it is hitting the club and the player in the pocket. the vitality have decided to suspend the sponsorship of the club and an american travel firm have dropped the club, and kurt zouma has lost his deal with adidas. it remains to see whether he will be on the team sheet when they visit leicester away on sunday. now, if you were watching yesterday you might remember we brought you the story of 5—year—old beau, who is living with an aggressive

form of cancer, known as a neuroblastoma. beau, who has been undergoing treatment, joined us on the sofa alongside her mum shirley, who has been trying to raise more than £300,000 for a specialist clinical trial in new york. following their appearance on breakfast, shirley sent us this update. now thanks to that final push of that bbc interview, we have hit the target. but please do not be under any illusion that i do not realise that this is down to you. thanks to your shares, your effort, your dedication, everything that you have done, has sat me on that couch today. and allowed me and given me the opportunity to share beau's story to the nation. we've just hit the target and she sleeps. you're going to sloan, beau—beau. sleep tight, baby. love you.

and of course we wish them all the best with the upcoming treatment. nine minutes past six. time for carol. good today we have the potential for some disruptive weather across the northern half of the country, gales, severe gales, snow in there as well and we are looking at some showers further south with some rain yet to clear. this area of cloud is a potent area of low pressure which has been working its way towards scotland and northern ireland through the night, producing snow at lower levels, thunder and lightning and some rain, so there is a risk of ice on untreated surfaces. we had conceded gusts the rain rotating around this area, have had gusts at

68 miles an hour but they have potential to 70 miles an hour, so there could be damage to trees, potentially affecting travel. the weak front taking the winery behind that, and a blustery day. —— taking the rain away. the strong winds will transfer into the pennines, the uplands and eastern england, and some showers in northern ireland, north—west england and wales. colder than yesterday, temperatures from one to 80 degrees, but when you add one to 80 degrees, but when you add on the wind strength, the real —— to 8 degrees, but it will feel like —5 in north scotland. we will have a longer full cut in north scotland. we will have a longerfull cut in half in north scotland. we will have a longer full cut in half an in north scotland. we will have a longerfull cut in half an hour. —— forecast. it's hard to believe, but it's been 20 years since wayne rooney took the football scene by storm as a 16—year—old with everton. a glittering career followed

as he became both manchester united and england's record goal scorer. however, demons off the pitch have plagued him throughout his career. ahead of the release of a documentary about his life, wayne has told us about his struggles with alcohol and staying faithful to his wife and childhood sweetheart, coleen. wayne, the film is really very, very honest. why did you decide to do it and why now? i just felt it was an opportunity for people to see me, to see the real me. the good moments, the bad moments, which, of course, have been there as well, and then for people to judge me on knowing a bit more about me, which i feel is more fair. we've always grew up quicker than what we were meant to, really, ithink. coleen is such a big part of the film. you met as children,

really were married very, very young, and what comes across in the whole of the film is that you have this tremendous partnership. how important has she been in the last 20 years? we have a good relationship, and we're friends, obviously, as well. and there is a good balance of the relationship, especially now, into how we are as parents with the four children. and there's been difficult moments we've had, of course, which has obviously come through me and the mistakes i've made and i speak about that in the documentary as well. you're both very, very honest about the dark times, about times you were unfaithful in your marriage. did you have to fight to save your relationship with coleen? yeah, of course. and i think the easy thing for me to do wasjust give up and give up on everything, really. but you get to a point,

and i was struggling, i was really struggling, i was in a bad place. and i knew had to change, i knew i had to get through that struggle, really, and fight, fight for my marriage, fight for my career. i forgive him. but, yeah, but it wasn't acceptable. but no, it's not something that, you know, if it comes up, we talk about it like we're talking about it now. i haven't got the anger that i did at the time. coleen knows there's been influences, in terms of, why i've made mistakes, in terms of... i don't mean people, i mean alcohol. there is a really interesting moment when you say this, you say, "i could sit at home and have a glass of red wine but no good would come of that". what do you mean by that? yeah, because i knew if i have one glass of wine,

it leads to two, three, four, and then, that's when i know, that once that happens, no good can come from that. i think about the dressing rooms that you've been in, particularly that manchester united dressing room. was there never a time when anyone put their arm around you and said, "i can help"? no. ten, 15 years ago, you couldn't, i couldn't go into the dressing room and say "i'm struggling, i'm struggling with alcohol, i'm struggling mental health—wise". i couldn't do that. and when you say you were struggling, what was the darkest time? what was your fear at that point? death. i think, you know, as i said before, you make mistakes, which i did, and that could have been girls, it could have been drink—driving which i have done, it could have been killing someone. you could kill yourself. and that's a bad place to be. so i knew i needed help, i knew i had to get that help, and in order to save myself,

but also to save my family. rooney. 0h, brilliant goal! coming on for that first game for everton, you really are just a child, aren't you? what would you say to that boy now? you're not prepared. i always thought i was prepared for the football, to play, and i felt i was good enough obviously to play. but for everything else around it, i was nowhere near prepared. wayne rooney! and what do you regret the most? a lot. i think there's a lot. but i also think that sometimes when things happen, that you've got to learn from it. wayne, thanks very much indeed. thank you. the documentary rooney is available to watch on prime video from tomorrow. let's take a look at today's papers. 0ne story dominating today's front

pages is the met police's plans to email more than 50 people as part of its inquiry into lockdown parties in downing street and whitehall. the daily telegraph says the move suggests its investigation into the 12 events is entering its final stages. the daily mail leads on the planned ending of covid restrictions in england in a fortnight which includes the requirement to self—isolate after a positive test. it describes 2a february as "freedom day". the daily mirror leads with this image of wayne rooney and his wife coleen as the pair open up about their relationship in a new documentary. you can see our full interview with wayne rooney at 8.30 this morning. and remember this, the cat that stopped play between sheffield wednesday and wigan athletic on tuesday night? well, it turns out she'd been missing for months. topsey had escaped injune

during a trip to a cattery. her owner is looking forward to seeing her again. that is a catch that does not like to be told what to do. escaping on the way to the cattery. storming onto the pitch.— the way to the cattery. storming onto the pitch. and then somehow endin: u- onto the pitch. and then somehow ending up in _ onto the pitch. and then somehow ending up in the — onto the pitch. and then somehow ending up in the middle _ onto the pitch. and then somehow ending up in the middle of - onto the pitch. and then somehow ending up in the middle of a - ending up in the middle of a football match. what an extraordinary story. that is the time when you definitely need one of those mapping things to see where the cat has been. if it those mapping things to see where the cat has been.— the cat has been. if it was micro-chipped, _ the cat has been. if it was micro-chipped, i- the cat has been. if it was micro-chipped, i wonderl the cat has been. if it was| micro-chipped, i wonder if the cat has been. if it was - micro-chipped, i wonder if you the cat has been. if it was _ micro-chipped, i wonder if you could micro—chipped, i wonder if you could do that? the inside pages. stephen hawking always fascinated me, who passed away in 2018 at the age of 76 and he had left loads of stuff to the science museum in london. 0ne and he had left loads of stuff to the science museum in london. one of the science museum in london. one of the things he has left is this blackboard, just down the bottom here, on it are loads of his doodles, he had a really good sense

are in need of better insulation with two in every three leaking heat, according to the climate change committee. it says the way out of the current energy crisis is renewables, as well as better insulation for draughty houses. 0ur climate editor, justin rowlatt, has been finding out more. so you've got lots of heat coming out of this window here, and again, under this window upstairs, you've probably got a radiator here. that's money coming to your wall. that's money coming through your wall. using this thermal camera, we can find out whose house is radiating heat. the lighter the image, the more heat is leaking out. yeah, but look at that porch, that really does. there is a lot coming out there. it's easy pickings for me and marion here in manchester. the government estimates some 50 million uk homes could benefit the government estimates some 15 million uk homes could benefit from better insulation. that is two in every three.

it feels a bit sneaky and surreptitious. yes, i do love a good bit of draft hunting. here is the difference insulation can make. how would you rate this house? this house is definitely losing less heat, especially from the weak spots that we identified on the other houses. but just look what it took to give the house an insulation makeover. so, there is insulation inside the room here, the windows are double glazed, and the space under the floor is insulated as well. up here at the top of the house, the entire roof area has been insulated as well. the walls look like this, bare brick, but they put in this wood fibre insulation, external insulation, and the windows are double glazed. in monetary terms, it saved 40% of our gas on the heating, and it made a really big difference to the comfort of the house as well. so the variability of the temperature during the day, the way it feels in terms of air quality and comfort really improved. rob's family may be insulated from the energy price hikes

we all face, and they know they're doing the right thing by the climate. but here's the problem. it'll still take at least 20 years to cover the 36 grand it costs. down in london, it's this man'sjob to mark the government's homework on climate. so how is it doing? well, it's a d, could do much better, i think. so that's something for the government to think about. i think the government's policy or insulation has been very, very ineffective. it really is very poor. we need something that dramatically changes the number of insulation is that we do today. so this year we will be the tens of thousands of installations. we really need to scale that up to something more like half a million a year, and to do that quickly over the next four or five years. but if it's hard for middle—class homeowners to afford insulation, it is even tougher for local authorities like blackpool. energy efficient homes are popular with tenants. perfect! but blackpool spent £33,000 insulating jean's one—bedroom flat.

0h, now it feels absolutely brilliant. you know, you don't need to go out. you can stop in. you don't need your central heating on. the council reckons it would cost some £125 million to bring all blackpool�*s social housing up to this standard. and remember, jean is the one who benefits from lower energy bills, not the council. it's not financially viable to do it on the scale, really. to get stuff to be carbon neutral, there is a big bill for that and we need support with it. every housing provider needs support with that. when you say need support, you mean the government needs to give you some cash? yeah, there needs to be grant aid to make it happen at scale. so when you ask why so few homes in britain are well insulated, here is the answer. work like this so expensive. we know that we need a sharp incentive for most people to make

these investments in improving the energy efficiency of the home that they live in. most people, the payback for that will be several years so the government really does need to step in. last year, the government scrapped its 1.5 billion green homes grant scheme, and as yet, there is no replacement. so while those on the lowest incomes do get help, there's very little assistance for everyone else to insulate their homes. justin rowlatt, bbc news, blackpool. many people will be very keen to hear more about those measures. 23 minutes past six.— minutes past six. going back a few months, minutes past six. going back a few months. you _ minutes past six. going back a few months, you will— minutes past six. going back a few months, you will remember- minutes past six. going back a few months, you will remember the i minutes past six. going back a few- months, you will remember the debate about the hgv drivers, there was a real crisis of a shortage, and there would be a plan to get more sake bring us up to date. the would be a plan to get more sake bring us up to date.— bring us up to date. the plan has worked but _ bring us up to date. the plan has worked but has _ bring us up to date. the plan has worked but has the _ bring us up to date. the plan has worked but has the crisis - bring us up to date. the plan has worked but has the crisis gone i bring us up to date. the plan has - worked but has the crisis gone away? not completely.

you'll remember last summer right through to the run up to christmas we were all talking about the shortage of hgv drivers and noticing the impact. and it was down to different reasons. we were recovering from the pandemic so demand was for goods was rapidly soaring. also leaving the eu cut off a valuable supply of hgv drivers. and older drivers have been retiring and not being replaced. over the past four years the overall number of drivers fell by 53,000. one of the reasons drivers point to is poor facilities. you could be doing a 15 hour day and then you are struggling to park to park up of a night time because everywhere is full. the conditions aren't great, you spend a lot of time parked overnight at services, facilities are pretty poor, or lay—bys, industrial estates where you have got no facilities at all. last year, its estimated that the shortage peaked at 100,000 drivers. you will remember the empty shelves, and those queues around a shortage of petrol. that number has eased slightly.

partly as the spike in demand began to plateau, but also because of temporary changes to regulations. this included things like allowing deliveries to supermarkets later into the night. and temporarily extending the visa scheme for foreign drivers. it also relaxed the rules around how long drivers can work per day, and shortened the overall fortnightly period drivers are supposed to rest. another blockage was a bottleneck of getting new drivers through the testing system. that number of tests per week has now doubled. you're probably seeing some improvements when you head out shopping. but has the issue gone away? the situation has got better. our members tell us the worst of the crisis has passed although the caveat is that january is the quietest time of the year for logistics. and so we mustn't be complacent as things get busier,

as demand picks up, as the economy recovers from covid, we do need to make sure that we've got enough drivers who are able to service the economy and provide people with the things people need every day. so you are probably able to get your favourite crisps again. but at a price. it's estimated that haulage costs hit a three year high in december as wages were pushed up, and fuel bills rose. and of course that trickles down to higher cost of living. so easing, but not gone away. we are talking about this almost every day, leaves little incremental bit everywhere, your fuel bills, prices of haulage, their workers, these little bits and bobs means that the general cost of living is going up. we that the general cost of living is auoin u. ~ . that the general cost of living is oiiin u . _ . ., ., that the general cost of living is oiiin u,. ., ., ~' that the general cost of living is oiiin u,. ., ., 4' ., going up. we have made me think of criss. i'm going up. we have made me think of crisps- i'mjust_ going up. we have made me think of crisps. i'mjust remembering, - going up. we have made me think of crisps. i'mjust remembering, a - going up. we have made me think of crisps. i'mjust remembering, a very| crisps. i'm just remembering, a very long time ago, disco, salt and

of pre—pandemic levels. it's national apprenticeship week, highlighting the positive impact that apprenticeships make to businesses and the wider economy. the met police apprenticeship scheme has been running for more than a year now, but with the current controversies surrounding the force, what do new recruits think of the organisation's culture and if it can change? so there is no hiding, or hiding behind the recent failures of some of our colleagues, but that is why you need to recruit, you know, good people and good officers that want to be part of the change. and the metropolitan police commissioner dame cressida dick will be taking part in eddie nestor�*s programme on bbc radio london this morning. she'll be answering questions from londoners from 11am. to ask a question call 0800 7312000 or email eddie@bbc.co.uk. well, if you're heading out on public transport this morning, this is how tfl services are looking right now.

problems on the tube. the circle line is supended, the district line part suspended between high street kensington and edgware road. the hammersmith and city line also part suspended with severe delays on the metropolitan line. it's because of a signal failure at edgware road. and the victoria line is part suspended because of a track fault at brixton. 0nto the weather now with elizabeth rizzini. good morning. yesterday we saw a cold front going through and today that chillier feeling air will start to show its hand. it's already a cool start to this morning, particularly the northern home counties but there's quite a lot of cloud around. we could see a few spots of drizzle from the thickness of the cloud but it will sink its way southwards, and behind it lots of sunshine on that cold feeling air. so a largely sunny afternoon and there will be cloud coming and the chilly and brisk north—westerly wind could blow down some showers at times but generally most of us will stay generally dry and temperatures will peak between seven and nine degrees celsius, so a cold feeling day. 0vernight tonight, the winds will lighten and with clear skies in the cold feeling air

there will be a frost developing into tomorrow morning with temperatures in the rural spots dropping widely below freezing. a cold and frosty start to the day on friday but lots of blue sky and sunshine around and temperatures again a little lower. then we see the high pressure pull away and there will start to be more cloud rolling in from the west. over the weekend, saturday is looking mostly dry and it will turn unsettled, wet and windy on sunday. i'm back with the latest from the bbc london newsroom in half an hour. plenty more on our website at the usual address. now though it's back to charlie and naga. bye for now. hello, this is breakfast with charlie stayt and naga munchetty. coming up on breakfast this morning. so, i knew! so, i knew i needed help and i had to get that help, and you know to save myself, but also to save my family.

ahead of the release of a documentary about his life, footballer wayne rooney tells us about his struggles with alcohol and staying faithful to his wife and childhood sweetheart coleen. to mark 100 years of british broadcasting, strictly�*s 0ti mabuse has been sharing stories with schoolchildren about her own childhood growing up in south africa, in the hope it'll inspire the next generation of storytellers. 0ti joins usjust after 8. he's normally the one who asks the questions, but this morning, documentary—maker louis theroux will be answering ours about his latest series on the impact of social media on all walks of american life. since 2018, deborahjames has used her bbc podcast �*you, me and the big c�* to document her experience of living with incurable bowel cancer. last month she was rushed to hospital — where she was told she may not survive the night, after complications following the growth of her tumour. whilst on the ward, deborah recorded a series of emotional voice memos about her condition.

she's been speaking to graham satchell ahead of their release on her podcast today. just over a month ago, deborahjames posted some shocking photos on her social media page. she had been rushed to hospital after suffering a massive haemorrhage. i rushed to hospital after suffering a massive haemorrhage.— massive haemorrhage. i don't fall for a million _ massive haemorrhage. i don't fall for a million years _ massive haemorrhage. i don't fall for a million years where - massive haemorrhage. i don't fall for a million years where my - massive haemorrhage. i don't fall for a million years where my life i for a million years where my life would end with a medical drama where you are walking and talking woman and the next minute you don't know if you will survive the next hour and i can't believe i am alive. i cannot believe i am here. on day one of this pod cast we wanted to share the reality of cancer.— the reality of cancer. deborah is one of the _ the reality of cancer. deborah is one of the presenters _ the reality of cancer. deborah is one of the presenters of - the reality of cancer. deborah is one of the presenters of the - the reality of cancer. deborah is| one of the presenters of the pod cast you, me and the big c and has incurable bowel cancer. when she was taken to hospital she decided to record her thoughts on a series of

voice memos on her phone. it became a kind of coping mechanism. i remember coming downstairs and saying to my children, i love you, i love you, i love you for ever. and i thought i would never see them again. that is horrible to listen to, because what do you say to somebody when you have ten seconds of energy to say it and you don't think you will ever see them again? and there's only a few things that you do say, which is i love you and then you use your energy to in my case, keep conscious. it then you use your energy to in my case, keep conscious.— case, keep conscious. it was deborah's — case, keep conscious. it was deborah's daughter - case, keep conscious. it was deborah's daughter who - case, keep conscious. it was i deborah's daughter who ended case, keep conscious. it was - deborah's daughter who ended up calling the ambulance. my husband found me

remember, no team has ever done that before. there is, of course, long way to go. but when you've been as dominant as st helens have been over recent seasons, confidence can be hard to contain. it's a feel—good factor, a buzz, felt by the whole town. it may be their bitter rivals up the road, wigan, who are famously associated with pies, but burchill�*s has been in st helens for 100 years and they are saints through and through. it's an enormous part of the town, yes it is. we find in our small business here that when saints play, our trade goes up. it makes everybody feel a bit happier. and it all adds to the community spirit of the town, and that is what lifts the atmosphere up for the club and for the term itself. the only thing saints didn't win last season was the league leader's shield. that went to tonight's opponents catalan, one of two french teams in this seasons competition.

again built on local rivalries, and now forging new ones. but back in st helens, they are not short of sporting inspiration. darts superstar michael smith returning to his old school in the town, launching an education campaign for children. you are born with it. you don't support saints, you are born supporting saints and first and foremost you love any sport in st helens, especially rugby league. yeah, i do support saints, because they are the best in the world. and with st helens winning, also reigning champions, the kids have plenty to look up to. jack wellsby grew up down the road, a local lad who found global attention as a teenager when his last—gasp try sealed st helens the 2020 season. you will never see a finish to a rugby league game like that ever again. being a young lad you dream

of winning one, and then i've gone and won to win two years, then three in three years, and i think that taste, that desire doesn't become any smaller because of that. i don't see why i can't do four or at least challenge for it. but reaching the top is one thing, staying there, something else altogether. towering above the town, above it all, a sculpture — the dream. as the new season starts and history potentially awaits, it feels perhaps more fitting than ever. adam wilde, bbc news, saint helens. we are nearly a week into the winter olympics in beijing, and still no sign of a first medal for team gb overnight. but as the chair of uk sport, dame katherine grainger, told us yesterday says she's not panicking yet — let's speak to our reporter katherine reporter katherine downes in beijing. the figure skating has been mind blowing. we were here to cover one of the big stories on the games, not

just in figure skating that the games overall, the final chapter of the huge rivalry between nathan chen and the three—time world champion against the two—time olympic champion and it was advantage to nathan chen coming into the final event today with an 18 point advantage against his opponent and his opponent had to, and lay the big gun and tried the never before attempted quad axle, didn't get it, attempted quad axle, didn't get it, a huge high—stakes gamble from the japanese superstar but it was nathan chen who came out and skated absolutely exquisitely and here he is in his eltonjohn rocket man free skate, and not a foot wrong and he is the olympic champion after heartbreakfour years is the olympic champion after heartbreak four years ago when a short programme, disaster sent him backin short programme, disaster sent him back in 17th place and managed to fight back into fifth but now he's at the top. the big gamble pulled

him from eighth to fourth but no olympic medal now and nathan chen is the olympic champion. it's been incredible. the olympic champion. it's been incredible-— the olympic champion. it's been incredible. ., , ., incredible. compelling viewing. can ou ive incredible. compelling viewing. can you give us— incredible. compelling viewing. can you give us some — incredible. compelling viewing. can you give us some hope _ incredible. compelling viewing. can you give us some hope for - incredible. compelling viewing. can you give us some hope for team i incredible. compelling viewing. can i you give us some hope for team gb? i know there is hugh nightingale today and the curlers in the round robin action. where can we look for a sniff of a medal now? it’s action. where can we look for a sniff of a medal now?— action. where can we look for a sniff of a medal now? it's been a bit of a slow _ sniff of a medal now? it's been a bit of a slow burn, _ sniff of a medal now? it's been a bit of a slow burn, hasn't - sniff of a medal now? it's been a bit of a slow burn, hasn't it? it i sniff of a medal now? it's been a bit of a slow burn, hasn't it? it is only day six. have faith. team gb only day six. have faith. team gb only won theirfirst only day six. have faith. team gb only won their first medal of the last olympics on day seven so there's plenty to come in the next ten days and as you say, there are chances for medals elsewhere as dominic parsons one is first medal in it for years ago and then was lizzie yarnold and laura dees winning those medals. no lizzie yarnold laura dees is around so they could be a medal there. brad hall, his crew in the two—man bobsleigh, they are in the top five in the

world rankings, so they could be a possibility there. kirsty muir goes in the slopestyle and came fifth in the big air, and a huge young talent for tv —— team gb and you mention the curlers but it's not looking too good as the men are currently 2—1 down against italy and eve muirhead who won a brunch eight years ago, she is back at the games but the women's rink lost their first match to switzerland —— won a bronze. so while the team gb bosses are not panicking yet, they will beginning to wonder when the games will get going for the team.— to wonder when the games will get going for the team. thanks. we will let ou io going for the team. thanks. we will let you go up _ going for the team. thanks. we will let you go up to _ going for the team. thanks. we will let you go up to giving _ going for the team. thanks. we will let you go up to giving us _ going for the team. thanks. we will let you go up to giving us some i going for the team. thanks. we willl let you go up to giving us some hope and snatching it away from us. lovely stuff. great to see you. i'd forgotten that it was seven days before we won a medal last time. we can calm before we won a medal last time. - can calm down. before we won a medal last time. we can calm down. but _ before we won a medal last time. we can calm down. but the _ before we won a medal last time. we can calm down. but the curlers, i can calm down. but the curlers, there is still— can calm down. but the curlers, there is still time, _ can calm down. but the curlers, there is still time, only - can calm down. but the curlers, there is still time, only the i can calm down. but the curlers, | there is still time, only the early stages and time to get it right. we are stages and time to get it right. - are getting close because we got into the final of the speed skating

yesterday and tentacles coming out. time to have a look at the weather. good morning. no n o te nta cles no tentacles in the weather, more like icicles on a cold start for some of us with rain, sleet, snow, thunder and lightning and ice on the forecast but also some sunshine as well for some. you can see on the satellite this weather front continues to push away from the south and it's this area of low pressure, a potent area i want to draw your attention to because it has been producing snow at low levels as you come through the night, some rain, some hail, thunder and lightning on the risk of ice in scotland, northern ireland and northern england. we also have gusty winds around this area of low pressure, especially around the outer hebrides where there will be gusts of 70 up to 75 miles an hour but inland we are looking at gusts up but inland we are looking at gusts up to gale force and that will transfer east through the course of the day, showers and windy conditions in northern ireland but the england and wales we will say

goodbye to the cloud and the rain from the morning and it will brighten up with some sunshine but where ever you are it is going to be a blustery day and by the afternoon as the low pressure pushes towards the north sea the stronger winds will be across southern scotland, the pennines and in through the north—east of england. temperatures ranging from one in lerwick up to six in newcastle and nine in plymouth but because of the wind in the direction of the wind it will feel colder than that and for example in lerwick it will feel more like —5. through the evening and overnight the low pressure does move away and it will be windy for a time on the east coast and we have clear skies, wintry showers on high ground in the west and we are looking at a widespread frost, a sharp frost across scotland where we have lying snow, the temperature could fall away to —10 degrees, so a cold start with a risk of ice and a lot of sunshine to start with and a few showers in the west but through the course of the day the cloud will start to build ahead of our next

band of rain and once again it will feel cold with temperatures between four and 9 degrees. as we head into saturday the front i showed you on friday is going to be making its progress, pushing southwards and eastwards, taking rain with it and windy conditions as well. it looks at this stage like it will stay dry for most of the south—east during daylight hours and the temperature range is between six and 8 degrees, so that front there, as we head into sunday, we have an area of low pressure coming up from the south and there is still an element of uncertainty as to how far north of the area of low pressure will travel but it's what we think at the moment and it will coming across southern parts of england, south wales, into the midlands and east anglia and quite easily it could travel further north, so if you have outdoor plans on sunday, well worth staying in touch with the weather forecast and as we push further north, on current thinking, once again we are looking at drier conditions, some sunshine

and a few showers. the wind changes direction to more of a southerly component to it so it won't be as cold and looking at nine or ten in the south and between five and nine pushing north, just a heads up, the middle of next week is looking rather wet and windy as well. when the weather is like that, because charlie noticed you are almost like the weather forecast today, you are wearing what it is. thank you, charlie. it's like snowdrops or raindrops or something on your blue dress. it is look like you have been incorporated into it. i approve of that. you flatter me. sadly not that much thinking goes into it. it is what has been ironed. there you go, charlie. thanks. we will see later. _ sir keir starmer will meet nato's secretary general in brussels

today, to discuss the tensions between russia and ukraine. he is the first labour leader to visit the headquarters in more than 10 years — marking a change in policy from his predecessor, jeremy corbyn, who was a vocal critic of nato. we're joined now by the shadow defence secretary, john healey. good morning. welcome to the programme. what is the significance of keir starmer and this visit, considering the comments made by his predecessor, jeremy corbyn? what should we read into it? i predecessor, jeremy corbyn? what should we read into it?— should we read into it? i think you should we read into it? i think you should read _ should we read into it? i think you should read into _ should we read into it? i think you should read into it _ should we read into it? i think you should read into it what _ should we read into it? i think you should read into it what keir i should read into it what keir starmer— should read into it what keir starmer will tell the secretary general— starmer will tell the secretary general this afternoon that labour is the _ general this afternoon that labour is the party of nato and it was a labour— is the party of nato and it was a labour government post—war that founded _ labour government post—war that founded nato 70 years ago and our commitment to it is unshakeable because — commitment to it is unshakeable because this is an essential alliance _ because this is an essential alliance that defends our democracy and security in western europe and underlining that to the secretary general. — underlining that to the secretary general, in person, is an important

more than 25% since earlyjanuary, and on the bus it's risen by almost 10%. it means on the tube levels are around 60% of pre—pandemic levels. it's national apprenticeship week, highlighting the positive impact that apprenticeships make to businesses and the wider economy. the met police apprenticeship scheme has been running for more than a year now, but with the current controversies surrounding the force, what do new recruits think of the organisation's culture and if it can change? so there is no hiding, or hiding behind the recent failures of some of our colleagues, but that is why you need to recruit, you know, good people and good officers that want to be part of the change. and the metropolitan police commissioner dame cressida dick will be taking part in eddie nestor�*s programme on bbc radio london this morning. she'll be answering questions from londoners from 11am. to ask a question call 0800 7312000 or email eddie@bbc.co.uk. if you're heading out on public

transport this morning, this is how tfl services are looking right now. problems on the tube. the circle line is suspended, the district has severe delays. the hammersmith and city line is part suspended with severe delays on the metropolitan line. it's because of a signal failure at edgware road. and the victoria line is part suspended because of a track fault at brixton. onto the weather now with elizabeth rizzini. good morning. yesterday we saw a cold front going through and today that chillier feeling air will start to show its hand. it's already a cool start to this morning, particularly the northern home counties but there's quite a lot of cloud around. we could see a few spots of drizzle from the thickness of the cloud but it will sink its way southwards, and behind it lots of sunshine on that cold feeling air. so a largely sunny afternoon and there will be cloud coming and the chilly and brisk north—westerly wind could blow down some showers at times but generally most of us will stay generally dry and temperatures will peak between seven and nine degrees

celsius, so a cold feeling day. overnight tonight, the winds will lighten and with clear skies in the cold feeling air there will be a frost developing into tomorrow morning with temperatures in the rural spots dropping widely below freezing. a cold and frosty start to the day on friday but lots of blue sky and sunshine around and temperatures again a little lower. then we see the high pressure pull away and there will start to be more cloud rolling in from the west. over the weekend, saturday is looking mostly dry and it will turn unsettled, wet and windy on sunday. i'm back with the latest from the bbc london newsroom in half an hour. plenty more on our website at the usual address.

good morning, welcome to breakfast with naga munchetty and charlie stayt. our headlines today. 1,000 british troops are put on standby as the prime minister and foreign secretary head for diplomatic talks over the crisis in ukraine. detectives are to contact 50 people over lockdown parties in downing street, as police widen their investigation. wayne rooney opens up to breakfast about his alcohol and marriage problems, and how he feared his binge drinking

could have killed someone. i knew i needed help, i knew i had to get that help in order to save myself, but also to save my family. mind the gap. it's growing and manchester city get a helping hand from brentford, as they extend their big lead in the premier league title race. good morning. some potentially disruptive weather across the northern half of the country today, gales, even severe gales, and some snow showers for a time. further south the rain will clear and for most it will be a day of sunshine and a few showers. all of the details throughout the programme. it's thursday 10th february. our main story. borisjohnson is embarking on a fresh round of diplomacy in belgium and poland, amid fears of a russian invasion of ukraine. in brussels, the prime minister will tell nato's secretary general that britain is putting 1,000 troops

on standby in case of a humanitarian crisis. we're joined now from brussels by our europe correspondent nick beake. good morning. so, what should we expect on the agenda and in terms of timing today?— timing today? good morning, naga, charlie. timing today? good morning, naga, charlie- the — timing today? good morning, naga, charlie. the prime _ timing today? good morning, naga, charlie. the prime minister - timing today? good morning, naga, charlie. the prime minister has i timing today? good morning, naga, charlie. the prime minister has a i charlie. the prime minister has a day of diplomacy ahead of him, and the message we are told he wants to be sending is reinforcing western support for ukraine in the face of what they see as russian aggression. he is coming to brussels to meet the head of nato, and worth remembering all of this, ukraine is not part of nato. if there were to be an attack on ukraine, it would be a case of an attack on one country is an attack on all, which is the case if you are in the club. russia doesn't want ukraine tojoin at in the club. russia doesn't want ukraine to join at all in the future. borisjohnson will send a message today that any country in europe can make the decision whether it wants tojoin. europe can make the decision whether it wants to join. he will be sending that message here in brussels. then

he is under poland, because we have seen western allies sent troops to the front line there, certainly to some of the areas they have got, military places, in response, they say, to the russian build—up of troops on the border with ukraine. we are specifically hearing that more military assets from the uk are moving to that area. worth stressing that both sides say there can be a diplomatic solution to this, there is a keen sense that they want de—escalates. but there are war games or military drills taking place between russian and belarusian troops. these are rehearsals, not for real, but at a time of increased tension, there is an increase of many people thinking they could be a mishap or misunderstanding. everyone will be extremely keen to avoid that to the diplomacy continues. thank ou ve to the diplomacy continues. thank you very much. — to the diplomacy continues. thank you very much, nick. _ meanwhile, the foreign secretary, liz truss is due to meet her russian counterpart, sergei lavrov, in moscow today.

the visit is the first by a british foreign secretary for more than four years. she's vowed to make clear that russia must immediately withdraw its forces and respect ukraine's sovereignty, "or face severe consequences". the metropolitan police is to begin contacting more than 50 people as part of its inquiry into lockdown parties at downing street and whitehall with the prime minister and his wife, carriejohnson, expected to be included. it comes after a leaked photograph of borisjohnson at a christmas quiz, shows staff in party hats, with a bottle of sparkling wine on the table. our political correspondent chris mason joins us now. talk to me a little bit about the picture and where this leaves the investigation.— investigation. good morning, charlie. investigation. good morning, charlie- so — investigation. good morning, charlie. so bubbly— investigation. good morning, charlie. so bubbly on - investigation. good morning, charlie. so bubbly on the i investigation. good morning, i charlie. so bubbly on the table, tinsel around the neck of one of the people photographed. someone else in a santa hat. in mitigation there does appear to be a bottle of sanitiser on the table as well. this

is an alternative view of a do that we already knew about, the alternative view does offer us an image of the bottle, though, which rather cranks up the idea that this wasn't exactly a conventional work event. so the police are reviewing whether or not to look at this whole event again, just as they tell us under operation hillman, as they call it, that they are about to send about 15 about 50 e—mails who were at the parties which should not have been happening because of a time of lockdown. they call them questionnaires which is a bit fluffy but they say it is illegal document and they expect truthful answers provided within a week. —— they say it is a legal document. and unless there is a legitimate excuse for people being at these occasions, a fixed penalty notice could come the way of those the police are looking

into. rememberthe way of those the police are looking into. remember the scale of what the police are looking at, 500 documents and 300 pictures that they have been sent by the cabinet office, and they say, the police, they are willing to go back to the cabinet office, the government department that looked into all of this, to ask them for more information if necessary. downing street promises as they will tell us if the prime minister does receive a fixed penalty notice. speaking to them this morning, they are not confirming whether or not the prime minister is standing by his inbox awaiting an e—mailfrom the police. his inbox awaiting an e-mail from the iolice. . ~ two cats owned by the west ham defender kurt zouma have been taken into the care of the rspca, after videos emerged on social media showing the 27—year old hitting, dropping and kicking one of them. our reporter matt gravelling is at the london stadium for us this morning. matt, good morning. lots of people

commenting about the decision to play zouma yesterday, and waiting for a response from the club. that’s for a response from the club. that's ri i ht, for a response from the club. that's right. naga- — for a response from the club. that's right. naga. we _ for a response from the club. that's right, naga. we know— for a response from the club. that's right, naga. we know that - for a response from the club. that's right, naga. we know that the i for a response from the club. t'isgt�*s right, naga. we know that the club are undertaking an internal investigation after this video emerged on social media on monday, which showed the french international punching and kicking and hitting a cat. we know that after that the club were quick to condemn the actions, and they find the defender two weeks wages, £250,000. eyebrows were raised following a 2k hours later here when he was in part of the team, he played 90 against watford and they won the game 1—0 to stop gary lineker said the decision to field the player was tone deaf. the wildlife presenter chris packham said it was a disgrace. following this, the two cats owned by mr zouma

have been taken into care of the rspca, the police are also investigating. 250,000 people and counting have taken to an online petition saying they want kurt zouma to be prosecuted. the decision to field him is hitting the club in the pocket with an american travel firm is dropping sponsorship of the club, and vitality, another sponsor, dropping their sponsorship. and a devious dropping kurt zouma for the foreseeable future. —— and i adidas also dropping their sponsorship of kurt zuma. it remains to be seen whether he will be played in their game at the weekend. former footballer wayne rooney says he feared he could have died or killed someone because of his binge drinking. rooney says he felt he had to keep his struggles with alcohol and mental health secret during his time as a player. he's been speaking to breakfast ahead of the release

of a new documentary about his life. you make mistakes, which i did, and that could have been girls, it could have been drink—driving which i have done, it could have been killing someone. you could kill yourself. and that's a bad place to be. so i knew i needed help, i knew i had to get that help, and in order to save myself, but also to save my family. you can see that full interview here on breakfast at 8.30am this morning. now, if you were watching yesterday you might remember we brought you the story of 5—year—old beau, who is living with an aggressive form of cancer, known as a neuroblastoma. beau, who has been undergoing treatment, joined us on the sofa alongside her mum shirley, who has been trying to raise more than £300,000 for a specialist clinical trial in new york. following their appearance on breakfast, shirley sent us this update. now thanks to that final push after that bbc interview,

we have hit the target. but please do not be under any illusion that i do not realise that this is down to you. thanks to your shares, your effort, your dedication, everything that you have done, has sat me on that couch today. and allowed me and given me the opportunity to share beau's story to the nation. we've just hit the target and she sleeps. you're going to sloan, beau—beau. sleep tight, baby. love you. we wish the whole family are very successful trip to new york for the clinical trial. i am seeing snow in the corner of my eye, what's going on, where is that?

it is at livingston, some of hers have had some snow overnight, even at sea level, this is from one of our weather watchers. there are so much stronger wind to come today, already we have got them in the outer hebrides, gusts of up to 75 miles an hour potentially, as well as snow at lower levels, some hail, thunder and lightning and some rain. all of that is pushing east through the day, the strongest winds will transfer towards southern scotland and north—east england later. we also have a band of cloud and made it clear from the south—east, as it does so, it will brighten up and we will see some sunshine. a few showers in northern ireland and north—west england. and blustery wherever you are. the strongest winds are moving east, so there could be some travel disruption. the

temperatures are two to 9 degrees, and on the winter chill, and it will feel like —2 in northern scotland. a few wintry showers on higher ground towards the west. —10 is what you can expect in the snow fields in scotland. a risk of ice in the morning, dry weather, showers in the west, the cloud builds in and we will see some rain later. tomorrow will see some rain later. tomorrow will feel a little bit cold. all remaining covid restrictions in england, including the legal requirement to self—isolate, could be lifted within a matter of weeks. the current rules are due to expire on 24th march but borisjohnson says he plans to bring that forward by a month, as long as "encouraging trends" in the data continue. so is this the time to start thinking about living with covid? we're nowjoined by epidemiologist, professor mike tildesley.

good morning to you, nice to see you. on that big question first of all, many people scratching their heads, going, what about this timing? what do you make of that? i think the timing is the key question here. we would all agree that at some point, we need to go back into living with covid in a way that we have a relaxation of all of these restrictions. but whether it is the right time now is more up for debate. if we look at the data, we are seeing that cases are going down, we are reporting 60 or 70,000 per day as compared with 200,000 at the peak. hospital admissions are quite a long way below where they were at the peak and significantly below where they were in january and february last year. so that certainly is feeding into, presumably, these decisions that are likely to happen. but the key thing is, what will happen if indeed these relaxations come into place? how are people going to behave, are people still going to isolate, if they have

symptoms, and our employer is going to support people to do that? that is where the uncertainty lies. it's still very important that if people have symptoms, they don't go into work when they are sick and increased risk by doing so. 50. work when they are sick and increased risk by doing so. so, you went through _ increased risk by doing so. so, you went through in _ increased risk by doing so. so, you went through in some _ increased risk by doing so. so, you went through in some detail i increased risk by doing so. so, you went through in some detail where increased risk by doing so. so, you i went through in some detail where we are in terms of the figures. are we flatlining now in terms of where things are? is it stabilising, effectively?— things are? is it stabilising, effectively? well, we are still seeini effectively? well, we are still seeing the — effectively? well, we are still seeing the trends _ effectively? well, we are still seeing the trends are - effectively? well, we are still seeing the trends are going l effectively? well, we are still- seeing the trends are going down in terms of hospital admissions. we are down to about 1500 hospital admissions per day compared to the peak at the start of january which is about 2000. the trend suggests they are still going down. but of course what we find is, whenever there is a relaxation or a policy change, that doesn't slow the rate of decline. and we might that that —— that does slow the rate of decline and we might expect that to

levels of vaccination for the vulnerable, but it's very important that we do monitor any changes as we get back to normality to determine what effect that might have. what what effect that might have. what have we learned _ what effect that might have. what have we learned about _ what effect that might have. what have we learned about the time of year, the climate, about what relationship that has with how covid spreads? this clearly will be coming in in springtime, february into march and april?— in in springtime, february into march and april? in in springtime, february into march and aril? ~ , ., ., march and april? absolutely and that does have an — march and april? absolutely and that does have an effect _ march and april? absolutely and that does have an effect stop _ march and april? absolutely and that does have an effect stop we - march and april? absolutely and that does have an effect stop we do - march and april? absolutely and that does have an effect stop we do know| does have an effect stop we do know that all respiratory viruses tend to spread more in the winter when people are indoors more, the virus likes spreading in indoor settings, where people are in close passivity. as we tend to move into warmer weather, we saw it last year as well, we seek cases come down, we do generally see the pressure coming off of the hospitals. as we get into march and april we will hopefully see this coming right down. we are not quite there yet. we are talking about the end of february potentially when the restrictions

might change so we do have a while before we get to the warmer weather. always good to talk to, professor mike tildesley, an epidemiologist, talk to us this morning. —— talking to us. west ham has issued defender, kurt zouma, with a fine for "the maximum amount possible", after a video emerged online of him drop—kicking and hitting one of his pet cats. the club has been criticised for its decision to play the 27—year—old earlier this week. we're joined now by the chairman of league two club tranmere rovers, and former chief executive of the fa, mark palios. good morning to you. i understand you have not seen the video, but you are aware of what happened in it. i suppose my question is, if one of your players did this, at tranmere rovers, and it came to light before a game, do you think it is right to play them? i a game, do you think it is right to play them?—

a game, do you think it is right to -la them? ~ , , , , play them? i think the issues, it is difficult for — play them? i think the issues, it is difficult for the _ play them? i think the issues, it is difficult for the club. _ play them? i think the issues, it is difficult for the club. david - play them? i think the issues, it is difficult for the club. david moyes| difficult for the club. david moyes when he spoke gave the answer with what he looks after, that's the technical aspect of the club, playing the game, and the football perspective, he gave his decision that he thought it was right to play the player concerned. i think if you then look at the club as a whole, it's the duty of the club to look at the more long—term aspect and that the more long—term aspect and that the short—term aspects to some extent which had emigrated —— which i delegated to the manager. the long—term aspect of things like the brand value. i think the phrase they used was disappointing, i think if you look at the statement that west ham have made, they hinted at further sanctions, depending on the outcome of an investigation by the rspca. i'm not sure come in a normal case, you would stand back and look at the outcome of the investigation,

in the city until proven guilty but here i am not so sure that the —— innocent until proven guilty. but here i am not so sure that the investigation will add anything to the debate. you then come down to the debate. you then come down to the decision of playing or not playing the player or even suspending them pending the investigation. the only thing that i can say is that i think the best description of it is it is tone deaf, if you look at the outcry that has come along, to allow the player to play. the thing that would be at the back of my mind, and i don't know the facts, is whether or not the police investigation, i think essex police might investigate, and the potential criminal investigations coming where a frenchman abroad can be done for criminal acts. a lot of things in the background we don't know. the maximum fine that they have applied is the maximum allowed by the pf ncc, which is the professional

footballers negotiating consulting committee. that is a commission of the fa, the pfa, and the leaks, the premier league etc. the player will have in his contract that he cannot win the game of the club into disrepute. the maximum fine given is to recline. subject to —— is a two—week fine. they might be able to go back to the pfa if they think an increased file is appropriate. that is why i think they are sitting back and waiting to hear what goes on in terms of the investigation. i am surrised terms of the investigation. i am surprised you — terms of the investigation. i am surprised you have _ terms of the investigation. i am surprised you have made - terms of the investigation. i am surprised you have made a - surprised you have made a distinction between the board at west ham and the manager david moyes when it comes to a moral compass, looking after, as you say, one of the contract lines, bringing the club into disrepute. so often we hear from footballers who praise their managers, previous managers, for guiding them and offering a

moral compass. surely that is the role of the manager. i moral compass. surely that is the role of the manager.— moral compass. surely that is the role of the manager. i would argue that it is partly _ role of the manager. i would argue that it is partly a _ role of the manager. i would argue that it is partly a role _ role of the manager. i would argue that it is partly a role of _ role of the manager. i would argue that it is partly a role of the - that it is partly a role of the manager. i think at the end of the day, the moral compass of the manager himself is something that you take into account when you recruit somebody and see how they carry themselves around the club. that is certainly for david moyes to argue. clearly in his press conference he indicated that he took what he considered, he was asked the question, would you play him, he will consider whether the guy can take what was clearly going to come which was going to be a lot of abuse from the crowd. is he strong enough to stand up to that and perform? he was stressing the fact that he was looking at it from a technical perspective and passed it across to the board to take the longer term interest. . , , , ., ., , interest. the assumption would be that mo es interest. the assumption would be that moyes david _ interest. the assumption would be that moyes david had _ interest. the assumption would be that moyes david had the - interest. the assumption would be that moyes david had the supportl interest. the assumption would be. that moyes david had the support of the board at that point. but since

then we have seen sponsors pulling out or suspending deals with the club. is it purely then that money talks? �* ., , ., talks? i'm not in the minds of the board of west _ talks? i'm not in the minds of the board of west ham _ talks? i'm not in the minds of the board of west ham united. - talks? i'm not in the minds of the board of west ham united. the . talks? i'm not in the minds of the . board of west ham united. the thing that would be in the back of my mind is the long—term interest of the club. the financial aspects is something you have to take into account and these players have a value and a long—term contract. but you are looking at the sponsorship aspect of the club as well, and you are looking at the brand of the club. your sponsors try to align with the brand that is quite important. here we talk about ourselves as we will�*s family club. something like this would be contrary to something we stand for. and one of the things that we try to promote the club with. so you have to take these things into account. in the background, i do know that whenever things like this happen, because of the high—profile nature of football itself, it is always

very cautious about doing things like not interfering with due process and criminal investigations. as regarding the fine, for example, i'm not sure what the rspca investigation added. and you can see on the video and the play has admitted that he has committed the act and the offence, —— the player has admitted it. everybody deplores that and there is enough to go straight to the pfa and talk to them about the damage to potentially the club and the game itself. in that regard, i think they did take the short term, and they are right in saying that is the maximum fine they could give but there could be further sanctions if i agree with the pf ncc right. —— if further sanctions if i agree with the pf ncc right. -- if i further sanctions if i agree with the pf ncc right. —— if i read the agreement of the pf ncc right. the pf ncc right. -- if i read the agreement of the pf ncc right. thank ou for agreement of the pf ncc right. thank you for your — agreement of the pf ncc right. thank you for your time _ agreement of the pf ncc right. thank you for your time this _ agreement of the pf ncc right. thank you for your time this morning. -

will be answering ours about his latest series on the impact of social media on all walks of american life. time now to get the news, travel and weather where you are. this good morning from bbc london, i'm victoria hollins. a teenager killed in north london earlier this week has been named by police. 18—year—old donovan allen from hemel hempstead was found with stab wounds just after 6 o clock on monday evening in ayley croft in enfield. he died at the scene. police are appealing for information about what happened. new figures suggest more passengers are returning to london's tube and buses since working from home restrictions have been lifted. transport for london says the number of people travelling by tube is up more than 25% since earlyjanuary, and on the bus it's risen by almost 10%. it means on the tube levels are around 60% of pre—pandemic levels.

it's national apprenticeship week, highlighting the positive impact that apprenticeships make to businesses and the wider economy. the met police apprenticeship scheme has been running for more than a year now, but with the current controversies surrounding the force, what do new recruits think of the organisation's culture and if it can change? so there is no hiding between, or hiding behind the recent failures of some of our colleagues, but that is why you need to recruit, you know, good people and good officers that want to be part of the change. and the metropolitan police commissioner dame cressida dick will be taking part in eddie nestor�*s programme on bbc radio london this morning. she'll be answering questions from londoners from 11am. to ask a question call 0800 7312000 or email eddie@bbc.co.uk. well if you're heading out on public transport this morning, this is how tfl services

there will be a frost developing into tomorrow morning with temperatures in the rural spots dropping widely below freezing. a cold and frosty start to the day on friday but lots of blue sky and sunshine around and temperatures again a little lower. then we see the high pressure pull away and there will start to be more cloud rolling in from the west. over the weekend, saturday is looking mostly dry and it will turn unsettled, wet and windy on sunday. i'm back with the latest from the bbc london newsroom in an hour. plenty more on our website at the usual address. now though it's back to naga and charlie. bye for now. hello, this is breakfast with charlie stayt and naga munchetty. borisjohnson is embarking on a fresh round of diplomacy in belgium and poland, amid fears of a russian invasion of ukraine. in brussels, the prime minister will tell nato's secretary general that britain is putting 1,000 troops on standby in case of a humanitarian crisis.

is there a caveat around what the troops could be used for? our troops are effectively _ troops could be used for? our troops are effectively trained _ troops could be used for? our troops are effectively trained in _ troops could be used for? our troops are effectively trained in 360, - troops could be used for? our troops are effectively trained in 360, so - are effectively trained in 360, so we can— are effectively trained in 360, so we can deploy them on a humanitarian basis, _ we can deploy them on a humanitarian basis, for— we can deploy them on a humanitarian basis, for example be sent 100 engineers _ basis, for example be sent 100 engineers to stand shoulder to shoulder— engineers to stand shoulder to shoulder with the polish when the belarus _ shoulder with the polish when the belarus government were forcing families— belarus government were forcing families across the wire into poland to help _ families across the wire into poland to help with the polish on their border— to help with the polish on their border and showed that they were not alone and _ border and showed that they were not alone and we have a lot of skill sets, _ alone and we have a lot of skill sets, but — alone and we have a lot of skill sets, but a _ alone and we have a lot of skill sets, but a soldier is always trying to defend — sets, but a soldier is always trying to defend him and herself and indeed the partners they are working with and that— the partners they are working with and that is— the partners they are working with and that is the versatility of the forces, — and that is the versatility of the forces, and i think fundamentally the key— forces, and i think fundamentally the key point is the invasion of ukraine — the key point is the invasion of ukraine would spark a humanitarian crisis _ ukraine would spark a humanitarian crisis but _ ukraine would spark a humanitarian crisis but soldiers are able to deal with that — crisis but soldiers are able to deal with that and provide multiplies to the allies— with that and provide multiplies to the allies on the front line but

the prime minister has used that kind of language very recently? i think it is an important message to tell the _ think it is an important message to tell the russians. this is not a cost _ tell the russians. this is not a cost free — tell the russians. this is not a cost free exercise. they have amassed _ cost free exercise. they have amassed over half an hour of russia's_ amassed over half an hour of russia's ground combat capability, the whole — russia's ground combat capability, the whole of russia's combat capability on the borders of ukraine and the _ capability on the borders of ukraine and the ukrainian people will fight. i have _ and the ukrainian people will fight. i have been to visit ukraine on five occasions, — i have been to visit ukraine on five occasions, twice as defence secretary and previously, and these are people — secretary and previously, and these are people who quite rightly take the sovereignty of their country very seriously and lost nearly 15,000 — very seriously and lost nearly 15,000 people since the conflicts have started through snipers from either— have started through snipers from either separatism or potentially russians— either separatism or potentially russians and they are going to fight — russians and they are going to fight it— russians and they are going to fight. it may be that they are going to fight— fight. it may be that they are going to fight against overwhelming odds, but there _ to fight against overwhelming odds, but there is a cost in that and it's really— but there is a cost in that and it's really important to send a message to russia _ really important to send a message to russia that these people are not waiting _ to russia that these people are not waiting for— to russia that these people are not waiting for some liberation. these people _ waiting for some liberation. these

how the uk is pledging more troops and military assets in the region as part of a deterrence against russia. ben wallace the defence secretary was explaining the role of these 1000 troops being put on standby. latte 1000 troops being put on standby. we are able to deploy war fighting troops, — are able to deploy war fighting troops, we are also able to deploy humanitarian troops or troops to do humanitarian troops or troops to do humanitarian tasks. that's the key of defence — humanitarian tasks. that's the key of defence forces, they are trained to do— of defence forces, they are trained to do all— of defence forces, they are trained to do all these things. we are not deploying — to do all these things. we are not deploying them first and foremost to war fight, _ deploying them first and foremost to war fight, we deploying them first and foremost to warfight, we are deploying them first and foremost to war fight, we are deploying the first and — war fight, we are deploying the first and foremost to provide resilience and reassurance to our nato _ resilience and reassurance to our nato partners. resilience and reassurance to our nato partners-— nato partners. there are other measures _ nato partners. there are other measures the _ nato partners. there are other measures the uk _ nato partners. there are other measures the uk is _ nato partners. there are other measures the uk is taking, - nato partners. there are other - measures the uk is taking, offering other military support in the region, mirroring what other western allies are doing sending troops to the likes of poland where the prime minister will be visiting today. as well as all of this movement of troops which the rest says is in response to what russia have been doing, the talking continues —— the

west says that is in response to what russia have been doing. the foreign secretary and prime minister will be talking to their respective politicians on the russian side today. the metropolitan police is to begin contacting more than 50 people as part of its inquiry into lockdown parties at downing street and whitehall with the prime minister and his wife, carriejohnson, expected to be included. it comes after a leaked photograph of borisjohnson at a christmas quiz, shows staff in party hats, with a bottle of sparkling wine on the table. our political correspondent chris mason joins us now. good morning, chris. tell us a little bit more about this new image, and any reaction and what might happen next.— image, and any reaction and what might happen next. good morning, charlie. might happen next. good morning, charlie- we — might happen next. good morning, charlie. we know _ might happen next. good morning, charlie. we know there _ might happen next. good morning, charlie. we know there is - might happen next. good morning, charlie. we know there is a - might happen next. good morning, charlie. we know there is a bounty| charlie. we know there is a bounty of these photos floating around, the police have got hold of a couple of hundred of them. the latest to see the light of day courtesy of the daily mirror popped up during prime

minister's questions yesterday lunchtime, it is one from a bash that we knew about, a quiz that took place in downing street before christmas 2020. but a different angle on that quiz. what we see in the photo? an open bottle of bubbly, open with a certain amount of enthusiasm, with a tinfoil dangling off the side. a big packet of crisps, in mitigation, there is hand sanitiser on the table, and a bloke draped in tinsel. the police looking at whether to look again at that particular event. they are looking at around about 12 events in and around downing street and whitehall. with the expectation that about 50 people will get a questionnaire sent to them via e—mail. it sounds quite fluffy, questionnaire, they are insisting, the police, that this has formal legal status. around 50 people in westminster will be keeping an eye on the inbox, perhaps

the prime minister as well, given that we know he was at some of these bashers. downing street say they will tell us if the prime minister gets a fine. the met police tellers unless there is a reasonable explanation why people are at these dos, that is likely to happen. and then the big question is raised, can then the big question is raised, can the prime minister survive getting a fixed penalty notice, reaching his own covid rules, if that is what the police conclude? —— breaching his own covid rules. this is hanging over the premise that as he heads on a diplomatic tour around europe today with his fate still sitting in the police plasma candice. —— sitting in the police plasma cannons. two cats owned by the west ham defender kurt zouma have been taken into the care of the rspca. it comes after videos emerged on social media showing

the 27—year old hitting, dropping and kicking one of them. the club says the french international has been fined "the maximum amount possible" with the fee being donated to animal welfare charities. now, if you were watching yesterday you might remember we brought you the story of 5—year—old beau, who is living with an aggressive form of cancer, known as a neuroblastoma. beau, who has been undergoing treatment, joined us on the sofa alongside her mum shirley, who has been trying to raise more than £300,000 for a specialist clinical trial in new york. following their appearance on breakfast, shirley sent us this update. now thanks to that final push after that bbc interview, we have hit the target. but please do not be under any illusion that i do not realise that this is down to you. thanks to your shares, your effort, your dedication, everything that you have done, has sat me on that couch today. and allowed me and given me the opportunity to share beau's story to the nation. we've just hit the target and she sleeps. you're going to sloan, beau—beau.

sleep tight, baby. love you. and of course, as they will be travelling to new york for that clinical trial, we wish them all the best of luck. clinical trial, we wish them all the best of luck-— clinical trial, we wish them all the best of luck. let's get the weather now. it isa it is a picture of two halves today. we have a lovely sunrise this morning in bolton, and for many parts of the england and wales, from the south it is a dry and bright start, some of us seeing some sunshine. on the other end of the country we have a lying snow. it's notjust in scotland, we have it in northern ireland and northern england as well. a potent area of low pressure moving from the west to the east, gusty winds. up to 70

miles an hour this morning already. through the day the low pressure will drift eastwards taking its rain, snow and thunder and lightning and hail with it, and the strongest winds will transfer to the east, widely looking at gusts at 40 to 50 miles an hour. locally it will be a bit more than that. the strongest winds will be in the southern uplands and north—east england in the afternoon. south parts of the country, the rain will clear and it will brighten up. a few showers in northern ireland and north—west england and wales. temperature is nothing to write home about, and with the wind chill it will feel much colder. this evening and overnight the low pressure drifts down the north sea coastline, clear skies, wintry showers in the west, and widespread frost where we have got lying snow. the temperatures will fall away to —10. the risk of ice on untreated surfaces. a cold but sunny start with a few showers

in the west, later the wind picks up, the card bills and we will see some rain. tomorrow will also be quite chilly. —— the cloud will build and we will see some rain. since 2018, deborahjames has used her bbc podcast 'you, me and the big c�* to document her experience of living with incurable bowel cancer. it has been the most extraordinary journey she has been on, when she had shared, just remarkable. it has had shared, 'ust remarkable. it has been a had shared, just remarkable. it has been a privilege — had shared, just remarkable. it has been a privilege to _ had shared, just remarkable. it has been a privilege to have _ had shared, just remarkable. it has been a privilege to have it - had shared, just remarkable. it ya; been a privilege to have it shared with us. last month she was rushed to hospital where she was told she may not survive the night, after complications following the growth of her tumour. whilst on the ward, deborah recorded a series of emotional voice memos about her condition. she's been speaking to graham satchell ahead of their release on her podcast today. just over a month ago, deborahjames posted some shocking photos on her social media page. she had been rushed to hospital after suffering a massive haemorrhage.

i don't think i ever in a million years thought my life would end with a medical trauma where you are walking and talking woman and the next minute you don't know if you will survive the next hour and i can't believe i am alive. i cannot believe i am here. from day one of this podcast we wanted to share the reality of cancer. deborah is one of the presenters of the bbc podcast you, me and the big c and has incurable bowel cancer. when she was taken to hospital she decided to record her thoughts on a series of voice memos on her phone. it became a kind of coping mechanism. i remember coming downstairs and saying to my children, i love you, i love you, i love you for ever. and i thought i would

never see them again. that is horrible to listen to, because what do you say to somebody when you have ten seconds of energy to say it and you don't think you will ever see them again? and there's only a few things that you do say, which is i love you and then you use your energy to in my case, keep conscious. it was deborah's daughter who ended up calling the ambulance. my husband found me with eloise screaming down the phone, saying you have to help my mummy, because i was unable to articulate things anymore and the only response that we got was, "do you still want an ambulance? "there will be a 30 minute delay on it. "we understand that you are worried, but we cannot get anybody to you sooner." i now know, had i waited for help, i wouldn't be here now.

i am so angry about that. had i actually had to wait for the ambulance crew, i would not be alive. and i think that is what upsets me, because i keep on playing out the what if scenario. and the what if scenario is that i wouldn't be here. the london ambulance service told us this must have been a very distressing experience and said they had advised that help was on its way but, as is normal in periods of high demand, there could be a potential wait. in the end deborah's husband drove her to hospital and she was resuscitated and then had emergency surgery. as harrowing as the whole experience was, i'm in awe about how 20 people can actually save you from dying. that is when people need to be praised and that is when actually the nhs is incredible. yeah, medicalscience is pretty awesome.

people are awesome. the skills that they can do, it'sjust mind blowing, actually. bloody amazing. hi, deborah, lam dallas. welcome to trinity. deborah was diagnosed with bowel cancer five years ago and has had time to think about her own death. have you seen the film one flew over the cuckoos nest? iliken it i liken it to that. we filmed her three years ago from visiting her local hospice. she was keen to see what good end—of—life can look like. the thing that upset me the most was, and you know, i've talked about my death and i've accepted at some point my cancer is going to get me, i never planned for it to be like that. i thought i would have a day, a moment, a week, whatever,

to say goodbye, not shout it down the stairs to my children. i think it's a really stark reminder of, don't leave things unsaid on a daily basis, and it's quite amazing how much you wish for another sunset or another day or another cuddle, or whatever it is, and you can't leave things until tomorrow because there just might not be a tomorrow. when she was finally discharged from the royal marsden, she posted this. her voice recordings made in hospital will be released today as a you, me and the big c podcast. she remains determined

ayley croft in enfield. he died at the scene. police are appealing for information about what happened. last year saw the highest number of anti—semitic attacks ever recorded in london — up by a third from the previous year. the community security trust, which records such incidents, says there were over 1,200 attacks in london in 2021 up from just under a thousand in 2020. it's national apprenticeship week, highlighting the positive impact that apprenticeships make to businesses and the wider economy. the met police apprenticeship scheme has been running for more than a year now, but with the current controversies surrounding the force, what do new recruits think of the organisation's culture and if it can change? so there is no hiding between, or hiding behind the recent failures of some of our colleagues, but that is why

you need to recruit, you know, good people and good officers that want to be part of the change. and the metropolitan police commissioner dame cressida dick will be taking part in eddie nestor�*s programme on bbc radio london this morning. she'll be answering questions from londoners from 11am. well if you're heading out on public transport this morning, this is how tfl services are looking right now. problems on the tube. there are minor delays on the circle line, the waterloo and city line and the picadilly line. severe delays on the hammersmith and city line and metropolitan line because of a signal failure at edgware road. and the victoria line is part suspended between victoria and brixton because of a track fault at brixton. onto the weather now with elizabeth rizzini. good morning. yesterday we saw a cold front going through and today that chillier feeling air will start to show its hand. it's already a cool start to this morning, particularly the northern home counties but there's quite a lot of cloud around. we could see a few spots of drizzle

from the thickness of the cloud but it will sink its way southwards, and behind it lots of sunshine and that cold feeling air. so a largely sunny afternoon and there will be cloud coming and gping and the chilly and brisk north—westerly wind could blow down some showers at times but generally most of us will stay generally dry and temperatures will peak between seven and nine degrees celsius, so a cold feeling day. overnight tonight, the winds will lighten and with clear skies in the cold feeling air there will be a frost developing into tomorrow morning with temperatures in the rural spots dropping widely below freezing. a cold and frosty start to the day on friday but lots of blue sky and sunshine around and temperatures again a little lower. then we see the high pressure pull away and there will start to be more cloud rolling in from the west. over the weekend, saturday is looking mostly dry and it will turn unsettled, wet and windy on sunday. i'm back with the latest from the bbc london newsroom around 9am. plenty more on our website at the usual address. now though it's back

to naga and charlie. bye for now. hello, this is breakfast with charlie stayt and naga munchetty. it's hard to believe, but it's been 20 years since wayne rooney took the football scene by storm as a 16—year—old with everton. a glittering career followed as he became both manchester united and england's record goal scorer. however, demons off the pitch have plagued him throughout his career. ahead of the release of a documentary about his life, wayne, the film is really very, very honest. why did you decide to do it and why now? i was doubtful at first about doing it. even though it might sound a bit

strange, i'm a really private person. i just felt it was an opportunity for people to see me, to see the real me. the good moments, the bad moments, which, of course, have been there as well, and then for people to judge me on knowing a bit more about me, which i feel is more fair. do you want a snack or a wrap or a bagel? — do you want a snack or a wrap or a barel? ., , , . ., do you want a snack or a wrap or a barel? ., ,, . ., , ., bagel? colleen is such a big part of the film. there's _ bagel? colleen is such a big part of the film. there's a _ bagel? colleen is such a big part of the film. there's a brilliant - bagel? colleen is such a big part of| the film. there's a brilliant moment when she describes you, saying he's a romantic, charmer, used to love writing the poems. do you remember any of them? used to write poems for her? do you still? i any of them? used to write poems for her? do you still?— her? do you still? i think i wrote her? do you still? i think i wrote her one not— her? do you still? i think i wrote her one not so _ her? do you still? i think i wrote her one not so long _ her? do you still? i think i wrote her one not so long ago, - her? do you still? i think i wrote. her one not so long ago, actually. her? do you still? i think i wrote i her one not so long ago, actually. i used to love writing poems, and writing poems to her. i was quite romantic. in some ways it was a way

of me getting things out because i was quite shy at times. i was cheeky, but i was quite shy at times, so that was a way of me getting my words out and putting them down. we've always grew up quicker than what we were meant to, really, ithink. you met as children, really were married very, very young, and what comes across in the whole of the film is that you have this tremendous partnership. how important has she been in the last 20 years? very important. we have a good relationship, and we're friends, obviously, as well. and there is a good balance to the relationship, especially now, into how we are as parents with the four children. and there's been difficult moments we've had, of course, which has obviously come through me and the mistakes i've made and i speak about that

in the documentary as well. you talk about the dark times a lot. you're both very, very honest about the dark times, about times you were unfaithful in your marriage. did you have to fight to save your relationship with coleen? yeah, of course. and i think the easy thing for me to do wasjust give up and give up on everything, really. but you get to a point, and i was struggling, i was really struggling, i was in a bad place. and i knew had to change, i knew i had to get through that struggle, really, and fight, fight for my marriage, fight for my career. i forgive him. but, yeah, but it wasn't acceptable. but no, it's not something that, you know, if it comes up, we talk about it like we're talking about it now.

i haven't got the anger that i did at the time. there could have been times when coleen could have walked away, but we love each other. i made a mistake. she knows, coleen knows. coleen knows there's been influences, in terms of, why i've made mistakes, in terms of... i don't mean people, i mean alcohol. there is a really interesting moment when you say this, you say, "i could sit at home and have a glass of red wine but no good would come of that". what do you mean by that? yeah, because i knew if i have one glass of wine, it leads to two, three, four, and then, that's when i know, that once that happens, no good can come from that. what happens? you end up going out, you end up being in peoples company that you shouldn't be all you don't need to be in and that's where you make mistakes. and yourjudgment completely goes. iloathed make mistakes. and your 'udgment compieteiygoeah completely goes. what is your relationship — completely goes. what is your relationship with _ completely goes. what is your relationship with alcohol - completely goes. what is yourj

let your feelings out because i know i struggled to do that. i didn't do that. and it builds up and no good can come from it. i think about the dressing rooms that you've been in, particularly that manchester united dressing room. was there never a time when anyone put their arm around you and said, "i can help"? no. ten, 15 years ago, you couldn't, i couldn't go into the dressing room and say "i'm struggling, i'm struggling with alcohol, i'm struggling mental health—wise". i couldn't do that. and when you say you were struggling, what was the darkest time? what was your fear at that point? probably death. i think, you know, as i said before, you make mistakes, which i did, and that could have been girls, it could have been drink—driving which i have done, it could have been killing someone. you could kill yourself. and that's a bad place to be. so i knew i needed help, i knew i had to get that help, and in order to save myself,

but also to save my family. iimagine i imagine lots of people from normal backgrounds would look at footballers and think, well, what's wrong with them? they've got more money that they could ever spend in their lives, so how can they be sad, unhappy, dissatisfied? how can they behave so badly? can you explain that? i behave so badly? can you explain that? “ behave so badly? can you explain that? ~ , ., ., behave so badly? can you explain that? ~ _, ., ., y that? i think you can have money, ou can that? i think you can have money, you can have _ that? i think you can have money, you can have cars, _ that? i think you can have money, you can have cars, houses, - that? i think you can have money, you can have cars, houses, but i that? i think you can have money, i you can have cars, houses, but what you can have cars, houses, but what you lose is your freedom. you can have cars, houses, but what you lose is yourfreedom. you lose that freedom, for me, for instance, taking my kids to blackpool is very difficult and i went a few days ago with my children and i had to leave after ten minutes, and that's not me not wanting to connect with fans.

i've literally don't hundred pictures and i actually look after my children, so i left after ten minutes. you lose a lot of the normal stuff, so you try and be normal, but you can't, and it's very difficult and i think if you ask a lot of people who are players, a lot of players would say, right, i'd rather be a normal person than have this. rooney. oh, brilliant goal! looking back at those old images now at 16, i7. coming on for that first game for everton, you really are just a child, aren't you? what would you say to that boy now? what i do know is, you are not prepared. i always thought i was prepared for the football, to play, and i felt i was good enough obviously to play. but for everything else around it,

i was nowhere near prepared. rememberthe name! wayne rooney! might have said in the movement —— in the movie, i can't david beckham and victoria, i think the press were looking for the next version of them and me and coleen could not be further from that if i'm honest. what do you regret the most? a lot. i think there's a lot. but i also think that sometimes when things happen, that you've got to learn from it. so there's a lot of things i regret, a lot of things i think i've happened for a reason and a lot of things that have put me here today where i am and allows me to share them experiences. wayne, thanks very much indeed. thank you. sally, ijust sally, i just found sally, ijust found out did wayne rooney's first interview when she was at bbc north west 20 years ago, so it's like they have come full

on catalans dragons, looking to make history, as adam wild reports. there's no stopping st helens. super league winners again. st helens, the super league champions. and again. it's a hat—trick of titles. and again. champions three times in a row, the much—vaunted three—peat. now the new season, the new challenge is opening up. tonight it begins here. st helens against the team they beat in last year's grand final, the french, catalan dragons. much of the talk is around making history and that fourth successive super league title. remember, no team has ever done that before. there is, of course, a long way to go. but when you've been as dominant as st helens have been over recent seasons, confidence can be hard to contain. it's a feel—good factor, a buzz, felt by the whole town. it may be their bitter rivals up the road, wigan, who are famously associated with pies, but burchill�*s has been in st helens for 100 years and they are saints through and through. it's an enormous part

of the town, yes, it is. we find in our small business here that when saints play, our trade goes up. it makes everybody feel a bit happier. and it all adds to the community spirit of the town, and that is what lifts the atmosphere up for the club and for the term itself. the only thing saints didn't win last season was the league leader's shield. that went to tonight's opponents catalan, one of two french teams in this seasons competition. a game built on local rivalries, and now forging new ones. but back in st helens, they are not short of sporting inspiration. darts superstar michael smith returning to his old school in the town, launching an education campaign for children. you are born with it. you don't support saints, you are born supporting saints and first and foremost you love any sport in st helens, especially rugby league. yeah, i do support saints,

because they are the best in the world. and with st helens winning, also reigning champions, the kids have plenty to look up to. jack wellsby grew up down the road, a local lad who found global attention as a teenager when his last—gasp try sealed st helens the 2020 season. you will never see a finish to a rugby league game like that ever again. being a young lad you dream of winning one, and then i've gone and won two in two years, then three in three years, and i think that taste, that desire doesn't become any smaller because of that. i don't see why i can't do four or at least challenge for it. but reaching the top is one thing, staying there, something else altogether. towering above the town, above it all, a sculpture — the dream. as the new season starts and history potentially awaits, it feels perhaps more fitting than ever. adam wild, bbc news, st helens.
