good morning. welcome to breakfast with naga munchetty and charlie stayt. our headlines today: dame deborah meets the duke: in an unprecedented royal visit to herfamily home, cancer campaigner deborahjames is given her damehood by prince william. ukraine says it's aiming to arm 1 million fighters as the country prepares for a new, long phase in the war against russia. 50 migrants are told that the government intends to send them to rwanda — the first under the new immigration plans. good morning from wembley stadium at the start of the fa
6:01 am
cup final weekend. today, it's the turn of the men — it's chelsea v liverpool at 6:30. we will take a little look around. # stefania! it's the eurovision final tonight. ukraine are the favourites to win. good morning, we're in for a largely fine, dry day with warm spells of but expect some heavy showers and thunderstorms this evening for the south—west of england and they will spread across england and wales overnight. i will have all of the details coming up shortly. it's saturday the 14th of may. good morning. the duke of cambridge has presented the cancer campaigner deborahjames, also known as �*bowelbabe�* with a damehood at her family home. the 40—year—old, who hosts the bbc�*s you, me and the big c podcast, has raised more than £5 million for charity since revealing she is receiving end—of—life care for bowel cancer. graham satchell reports.
6:02 am
what a day for dame deborahjames. less than 2a hours after the queen announced she would be honoured, prince william came to her parents�*s house to present the award in person. the duke of cambridge that much of the afternoon with deborah and herfamily. in a post on much of the afternoon with deborah and her family. in a post on social media, dame deborah said: baby, baby, when you touch me... dame deborah has been a real inspiration for other people living with cancer with remarkable good humour and extraordinary candour, she has been sharing every part of herjourney. she was diagnosed with calc -- herjourney. she was diagnosed with calc —— bowel cancer in 2016 when she was just 35. on monday, she announced she was stopping active treatment, she said her bodyjust could not continue any more. the
6:03 am
same day she set up a new fund for cancer charities. herfamily cancer charities. her family constantly refreshing cancer charities. herfamily constantly refreshing thejustgiving page, celebrating each milestone. michael towke the total has now passed more than £5 million. there has been huge of love and appreciation for dame deborah and what she has achieved. prince william said: i'm a i'm a bit numb because i think it's a bit surreal because i know that i'm going to die. find a bit surreal because i know that i'm going to die.— a bit surreal because i know that i'm going to die. and the messages are beautiful— i'm going to die. and the messages are beautiful but _ i'm going to die. and the messages are beautiful but they're _ are beautiful but they're heartbreaking as well, and so, i'm trying to read what i can and i hope

6:07 am
faces life in prison if convicted. it is unclear how he was captured or what the nature of the evidence is against him. russia has denied targeting civilians and made no comment on the trial. but what is still happening and civilians near the front line continue to be forced underground. they remained defiant and they want their home returned to them. frances read, bbc news. borisjohnson says 50 migrants have become the first to be told they'll be sent to rwanda as part of the government's controversial resettlement policy. the prime minister revealed the figure in an interview with the daily mail. he told the paper he expected a lot of legal opposition to the plan, but said the government would "dig in for the fight." a ban on buy one, get one free deals on unhealthy food in england is to be put on hold for a year. the government said the delay would allow a better understanding of the impact on household finances amid the rising cost of living. separate uk—wide plans to restrict the advertising ofjunk food before 9pm is also being
6:08 am
postponed until 202a. the government is cutting ties with the national union of students because of accusations of anti—semitism within the organisation. ministers say the union won't receive any government funding until the issues are addressed. the nus says it will appoint a senior barrister next week to examine the claims. eurovision party tonight? well, it is eurovision night and there will be many homes having an evening in. you? not especially, no, buti be many homes having an evening in. you? not especially, no, but i do like it and tonight's show is interesting for all sorts of reasons. of course. it is the final tonight. the world's largest music competition is back with 25 countries taking part and nearly 200 million viewers expected to tune in for the final in turin. if you've not heard the uk's entry yet, here's a little clip of sam ryder with space man.

6:10 am
and jazz hands for eurovision. the weather looks good, good morning to you all. high pressure today in charge so a lot of fine unsettled weather but we could wealthy some showers and thunderstorms later on. but for the here and now, a beautiful start of the day. this is berwick—upon—tweed, the sunrise there, some patchy cloud about but of clear skies in between. heading through today, it will feel warm, less breezy than yesterday and longer spells of sunshine on offer. i hope you don't —— high pressure generally is dominating our weather today but take a look towards the south—west, you can see this feature developing later on this evening that will pile both thunderstorms in from the south—west. this morning, long, clear spells across eastern areas. more clout in the north and west but most of it burning back towards the coast. scotland and northern ireland seeing cloud breaking up. less breezy than yesterday so it will feel warmer.
6:11 am
temperatures in the north 14—19 or so. furthersouth, temperatures in the north 14—19 or so. further south, 20—22 likely or possibly 23 down towards the south—east. so, a fine, settled today. fine into the evening foremost but if we look towards the south—west later this evening, both blue and green colours moving in. they are heavy showers and thunderstorms rattling through this evening and overnight, gradually further north and east across england and wales that you may well hear the odd rumble of thunder overnight, especially across england and wales. right and clearfor scotland and northern ireland, perhaps a few getting in from the south, but figures for some northern areas and wild and humid feeling overnight as we see the moist air putting the showers in. we start the day with a mix of sunshine and showers, some as they drift northwards could produce the odd rumble of thunder at times but tending to brighten through the course of the day. sunshine and the warmest towards the south—east, 23 degrees or so, warm and humid. north, the high teens. call around
6:12 am
these east coast areas as the breeze starts to come in off the north sea but because of the next budget heavy showers moving in from the south during sunday night so overnight into monday then, more of those blues and greens during the heavy showers and perhaps the odd thunderstorm around. an unsettled picture then we move into the early hours of monday morning. through the next few days, things will look fairly unsettled with low pressure trying to move its way in from the west so that will bring some wet weather at times, especially across northern and western areas so this is how we start monday, then. joe is about, pushing their way north and east across the uk so something brighter developing from the south with some sunshine —— showers about. quite warm with temperatures about 12 in aberdeen to 23 in norwich. all in all, looking fine and sunny so watch out for those thunderstorms. see you later on. let's take a look at today's papers. the sun's front page carries a photograph of the duke of cambridge sitting alongside deborahjames in her parents'
6:13 am
garden in surrey. the paper says the duke cleared his diary and visited deborah to present her damehood in person in an "unprecedented move". another image of royalty appears on the front of the times. it's a lovely image, this one. it carries a photograph of the queen, smiling at the royal windsor horse show. the monarch's last public appearance was in march, at a service commemorating her late husband, the duke of edinburgh. the daily mirror focuses on the so—called �*wagatha christie' libel trial, involving coleen rooney and rebekah vardy. the paper says mrs rooney told the court she didn't know whether her marriage to footballer wayne rooney would continue after he was arrested for drink driving in 2017. and turning over to the mirror's back page, it previews the men's fa cup clash today. the paper says the liverpool managerjurgen klopp has revealed his team will not celebrate if they win the fa cup as there are more trophies still to pursue.
6:14 am
the chelsea boss thomas tuchel said he's ready for his side to be "the bad guys" in today's match. they want to spoil the party of liverpool's amazing run. mike is there at wembley _ liverpool's amazing run. mike is there at wembley today - liverpool's amazing run. mike is there at wembley today so - liverpool's amazing run. mike is there at wembley today so we l liverpool's amazing run. mike is l there at wembley today so we will talk to him throughout the programme and get the latest. we've got beavers in the programme later today. i know you would be dividing a couple delighted. it is called rushford, he is one—year—old and he is building a dam. i will bring you, well... ., , ., is building a dam. i will bring you, well- - -— wei well... not here in the studio. we had a dog — well... not here in the studio. we had a dog in _ well... not here in the studio. we had a dog in the _ well... not here in the studio. we had a dog in the studio, _ well... not here in the studio. we had a dog in the studio, a - well... not here in the studio. we had a dog in the studio, a dog - well... not here in the studio. we had a dog in the studio, a dog is l had a dog in the studio, a dog is retiring from the fire service, dexter, and we look forward to meeting him. ifi dexter, and we look forward to meeting him. if i said to you burp it, what do you think a verb it is? a fish related to the cod family —— berbet. a fish related to the cod family -- berbet. ., , ., , , ., j berbet. have you seen the story? yes. i berbet. have you seen the story? yes- i will— berbet. have you seen the story? yes. i will not _ berbet. have you seen the story? yes. i will not pretend, _ berbet. have you seen the story? yes. iwill not pretend, i- berbet. have you seen the story? yes. i will not pretend, i have - berbet. have you seen the story? | yes. i will not pretend, i have read

6:18 am
rare, precious metals, for example — are really useful for scientific and climate research, but they are really difficult to mine. other resources are just, well, running out. all systems are ready... and all of this begs the question — as we venture into space, how are we going to live? where are we going to live? and what are we going to live on? so, as humans, we have been exploiting the resources on earth for as long as we have been around, but instead of looking down now at what is underneath our feet, we are starting to look up and see what else is out there. ultimately, what we are looking at doing is going to an asteroid, landing on it, taking samples and then, kind of bringing them back. yes, we're going asteroid mining! and these are the concept designs for machines that could one day be part of a new gold rush — well, actually, platinum rush — that could potentially be worth quintillions of pounds. and this is the first part of that robot —
6:19 am
the claw that stops it from floating away from the asteroid by gripping onto the surface hard. the grippers that they use are essentially derived from, ultimately, things like gecko pads and if you look at, like, the ends of tarantula's feet, you know, the hairs that they have? that's how a spider is able to climb the wall. we've not quite tested this, but if you were to put one on your head, it would have the force required to crush your skull. oh, good! which is lovely, isn't it? well, if you're going to make an asteroid—climbing robot, make a killer asteroid—climbing robot. but, really, is this the way to solve our resource problem? after all, it's all a fair way off yet. as well as designing the rest of the robot, with help of tohoko university injapan, the asteroid mining corporation need to find the right asteroid to mine. now, that's done by looking at the chemical composition of meteorites to identify what their parent bodies — in this case, asteroids — are made of. so, there you go.
6:20 am
each element has been assigned randomly a colour. so, in this image, all the green is iron, all the orange is calcium, the pink is silicon, the cyan is magnesium and there's also some darker green that is oxygen in here. is it the case that you will look through all your meteorite samples and one day, you'll come across something that's, say, rich in platinum, and then that gives them then the green light to go get it? absolutely. if we find a concentration of platinum in one of our meteorites, then we can certainly tell the amc guys, "ok, the types of meteorites that we're finding platinum in "are likely to involve this type of asteroid, "so now, it is over to you." and, you know, these days, we can actually go one better than waiting for space debris to come to us. and we have gone and got it. the uk's national space centre in leicester is at the centre of the universe — well, that's what they tell me, anyway — so let's hit their planetarium for a quick recap one of the most daring space rock missions so far.
6:21 am
the asteroid belt is this ring of bits and bobs that orbits the sun further out than mars, but that's not where all the asteroids are. if we fly back towards the sun, past mars, you will find some asteroids a lot closer to earth. and one of those is called ryugu, and that's the one that all the fuss was about. back in 2018, we visited the japanese space agency, jaxa, to meet the team behind hayabusa2. this audacious mission successfully flew to ryugu, blew a hole in it, and brought samples back to earth. so, we thought before the landing that it was one sort of asteroid, but now we've actually started analysing it, we realise it's actually experienced an awful lot of alteration with water. and, as we know, water could mean life. but what does professor bridges think about commercial asteroid mining?
6:22 am
i think it's a really fascinating area. will it be economic to bring back a large fragment of an asteroid that is very metal rich, say? will it make more economic sense to recycle and reuse or have a new mine on earth? it could take decades before anyone successfully pulls off asteroid mining — which, considering there are only a few protections in place for the preservation of space, means that hungry pioneers might end up further exploiting our natural world for profit. of course, not all space research is about what we bring back from the beyond. as more and more of us head up there, paul carter has been looking at how we might go about building space habitats for humans. the international space station — a home to humans since the year 2000
6:23 am
with seven researchers on board at any time. and our interplanetary population is set to grow as private firms also compete to put more people in orbit. this is why scientists at the university of manchester are developing new materials for habitats in space, on the moon and mars. in space, micrometeorites hit the structure at 8 kilometres a second, so we want to make it safer for astronauts, so we are using graphene, which is 200 times stronger than steel. this is the model we are working on. shown here as a sheet or a powder, graphene also reduces the need for bulky insulation, with space temperatures ranging from a sunny 120 degrees to a cool —170. on a single layer of graphene around the structure can dissipate the heat from hot to cold side.
6:24 am
astronauts can have more space within the habitat, wspecially when they are living there for months or years, they need as much space as they can get. and you only need something one atom to get those benefits? we only need one atom. it's a magic material! many models have been 3d—printed in plastic, but a large—scale model is being woven out of graphene—coated carbon fibre. this is a 3k carbon fibre. so, it's very thin, as you can see. it is really kind of precise, it's really kind of fine movements. this side will be very weak, so we can put many different directions of fibre. and so, that increases the strength of the final material? that's correct. this collaborative robot is designed to improve efficiency and safety. ai also identifies faults that would become dangers in the high pressure and temperatures of space. the flexible material is then set at around 170 degrees. so, you're just cooking your own space habitat? exactly! in true blue peterfashion,
6:25 am
here's a scale model we made earlier. the full size is about 6 metres wide by 12 metres high. while vivek is working with governments and businesses to get his graphene pod into space in the next six years, other labs are looking at building homes on the surface of lunar landscapes. transporting material from earth to the moon and mars is very expensive, so, really, what we want to do is utilise as much resources in situ as possible. aled's already made bricks with binders like egg albumen, chickpea juice and cow blood, but the right glue has to be freely available in space. you imagine, like, cows floating in, like, space. it's just going to be a nightmare. so, human blood has been used in these experiments. in some ways, it seems, you know, quite feasible, but it would probably also damage the health of the astronaut. that one says �*urea' on it.
6:26 am
now, is that...is that what i think it is? 0bviously, wee is something we are going to be producing in abundance. of course! actually, when we added urea, it made the materials up to three times stronger. one of the most viable concretes comes from a by—product of space food. we know we'll probably feed astronauts on the moon and mars with algae, just because it is so efficient, so we could potentially produce construction materials from this algae, which we know we'll probably be growing anyway. looking at the bubbling algae growing in action, it's incredible to think its by—products could become the building blocks of the future. and as for graphene homes knitted by robots? you'll have to...watch this space. paul there with some out—of—this world solutions. but back on earth, we're not just rethinking the spaces we live in, but how we move through them. technologies are aiming to get more people travelling on two wheels. this is tether, which beams
6:27 am
a laser light 1.5m around the bike, creating an area that cars shouldn't enter. it is, of course, more visible and more necessary at night—time, but the box is also collecting data on any cars that do enter that zone in the hopes that it will be able to create a map of a safer city for cyclists. the device was developed here in the uk, the device was developed here in the uk where a third of cycle injuries and deaths are the result of cars overtaking too closely. cycling across london is borderline terrifying or just very unsafe. we present that back to cyclists when they're next taking a route across london or any city in the world, we can highlight where those unsafe areas on their route are. that can be everything from "avoid these routes" right through to "this is the best bridge
6:28 am
to cycle across london "on from north to south." do you think the cyclists, seeing where the danger is on the road, could actually put them off cycling — which, of course, isn't what you want? we hope the outcome will be almost like traffic data, so that you can make a better decision about how, when you leave, or driving safer in certain places. whilst these lasers light up vulnerable cyclists at night, in future, these devices could also go on helmets or backpacks, helping users communicate in different ways. looking at audio feedback as well. like, we love the idea of pressing a button and changing the projection to a heart to say, "thank you for giving me enough space," for example. the data doesn't cover the whole capital yet, but with 60 more testers receiving kit this month, it will soon cover more ground, and a wider launch is expected for later this year. well, after giving it a go, i can see how data collection like this, alongside decent cycling lanes, can make a difference to help people feel more confident. but that's it for the shortcut of the show.
6:29 am
the full—length programme can be found on iplayer and we will, of course, be back next week. thanks for watching. bye—bye. hello. this is breakfast with naga munchetty and charlie stayt. it is just it isjust coming up it is just coming up to it isjust coming up to half it is just coming up to half past six. the men's and women's fa cup finals are taking place on the same weekend for the first time, and it is the men who are up first with chelsea taking on liverpool today. mike is at wembley with all the build—up for us this morning. good morning, mike! good morning everyone and wow, this is a special place to be as they celebrate 150
6:30 am
years of fa cup memories and for whatever your sport, this is one of the greatest feelings in anything, anything in the world— looking out up anything in the world— looking out up the tunnel, the famous tunnel with the eyes of the world on you on fa cup final day, whether today for the man or tomorrow for the women and so thomas dougal of chelsea who was here last year as they lost to leicester but forjurgen klopp until he has achieved, this will be a new experience for him —— tuchel. liverpool have not been in the title ten years ago but they lost 2—1 to chelsea but this timetable go, they are in the chase for four trophies this season, the quadruple and chelsea, world club champions are going for a second one and it should be close because they did meet in the league cup final earlier this season which meant that he marathon penalty shoot—out so i could go either way. you have to go back 30 years for liverpool's last fa cup final win at wembley. ian rush helping them to beat sunderland 2—0. just two more
6:31 am

it should be such a great match, as the package that, so close to call. from the chelsea benches and seats now. the first of this year's championship play—off semifinals ended in stalemate as luton held huddersfield to a 1—1 draw. huddersfield scored first early on, luxembourg midfielder danel sinani with a neat finish. luton equalised on the half—hour mark, but then it stayed level. huddersfield are hoping to get back to the premier league after only three years out, but luton haven't been in the top flight for three decades. just before it became the premier league, in fact. the second leg is on monday. the other play—off semifinal first leg between sheffield united and nottingham forest takes place later. phil mickelson, one of the biggest names in golf, will not defend his pga championship title after he withdrew. mickelson has been taking a break from golf after criticising saudi arabia's regime. he had been rumoured to be part of the new saudi—backed rival to the pga tour. at 51, mickelson became the oldest
6:34 am
ever major winner when he won the pga last year, but his decision means he won't be playing in oklahoma next week. britain's dina asher—smith was back racing the 200m in doha, where she became world champion in 2019. she finished third in the diamond meeting final, though behind the american — gabby thomas winning in 21.98 seconds. asher—smith withdrew from the 200m race at the tokyo 0lympics last year with a hamstring injury. amir khan has announced his retirement from boxing after glittering a career that began with an olympic silver medal at the age of 17 and ended with defeat to kell brook in february. in between, khan became a unified world champion at light welterweight and he hangs up his gloves with a professional record of 3a wins from a0 fights. the 35—year—old said he feels blessed to have had such an amazing career.
6:35 am
he will be on breakfastjust after half past eight later on! this is the right time, you know? i won my world title, i won a world title, gone to the olympics, won a medal, and i did that, as of the lease before plus the motivation, the push is not there anymore. i've been there, i've won what i wanted to win, one everything, and ijust think extra push, i could not get in the last fight and that's what made me decide to call it a day. now, st helens have taken the outright lead in the super league table. after a slow start at home to hull fc, the saints eventually found their rhythm, scoring four tries — two of them from tommy makinson — winning it 24—10 to go two points clear of wigan warriors who lost last night. finally, take a look at the moment a whirlwind interrupted at a football match in peru. it is often a cliche in football, isn't it, i will wind moment?
6:36 am
it is often a cliche in football, isn't it, iwill wind moment? this time, literally a whirlwind. semillero and san andres were playing a game on a dirt pitch and just after a goal had been scored and the players were walking back, a whirlwind appeared behind one of the goals. it crossed the length of the pitch. everyone got out the way and watched it disappear off. thankfully. luckily, no—one was hurt. ican i can guarantee there will be no well wins here today, apart from in footballing terms and hopefully lots of action at either end but it is very calm and at this time of day it is so different. this is what will be happening later with thomas dougal getting off his seat and jurgen klopp and they will walk up to the technical area and spend most of the game here and imagine this —— tuchel. pressure, the eyes of the world on you, the cacophony of noise as you roar your instructions and get animated with your players and roar them on but now, what a difference at this time of day! 20 to seven on a saturday morning, it is so special. i think we should maybe just take in the silence for a moment, take in the peace and quiet. of wembley stadium at the start of

with jane hill and mark kermode. hello, everyone, and welcome to the film review. i'm jane hill. taking us through this week's cinema releases is mark kermode. how long have you been watching? it's quite exciting. we have everything everywhere all at once, which is a low—budget multires movie, punching way above its weight, we have the quiet girl, which is a beautiful irish drama, and we have the drover�*s wife, a new take on an old tale. an interesting week! so, let us start with everything everywhere all at once, which is basically giving doctor strange and the multi—verse of madness a run for its money. the chinese american women
6:49 am
who dreams of being a singer or a novelist or a chef, but she has found herself in a life in which she is running a laundromat with her husband, with whom relations seem to be rather stale. she has lost touch with her daughter, she is frightened of her father. jamie lee curtis is the tax inspector who is on their case and says that they haven't filled out their tax returns properly. everything looks pretty mundane and drab, but then suddenly in a lift, her husband turns to her and says, i'm not your husband, and a version of your husband from another multi—verse, then i'm here to tell you that there are an infinite number of multi—verses in which you can be anything you want and there is more to life than taxes and laundry. here's a clip. go.
6:50 am
0h! what happened? i think they lost their...powers? so, part matrix, part martial arts movie, part in the mood for love, it's a film in which the multi—verse gives them the chance tojump across genres, as if you were sort of flicking through a series of different films. it's got this incredibly complicated extravagance plot, in which at one point, there is a world in which everybody has hot dogs for fingers.
6:51 am
and yet, the reason it works is because all that stuff going on never takes your mind of the fact of what is happening as mother's issues, down to earth issues, the drudgery of ordinary life, daughter's issues, others issues, is against the dreams he once had, reconciling against yourself against you may have been, he could have been, he will be, you are, who you will be. this is the directing duo who made swiss army man, which was as every bit as quirky, but not as involving. this also cost around million, i think, doctor strange cost 2 million upwards. but this has 80 times as much wit. and i quite liked doctor strange. but is doing something great with the multi—verse idea. it is really nice to see something, it is a comparatively low—budget film really taking on the big blockbusters, which are saying,
6:52 am
the only way these stories work is if you believe in the characters, if you actually think i've got something investing in those characters and in these you do, and it is an awful lot of fun. it's very funny, very exciting, very strange... some of the bits i've seen, i feel like it is very inventive visually, perhaps not in that clip that we saw, but some of it really is. while they are travelling to the multi—verses, the film gives you a frenzied adrenal rush, you get the sense of seeing something that you haven't seen before, and there are moments in it that are genuinelyjaw—dropping, but it works because you care about the characters and you understand that everybody is struck by the realisation that life is just a series of incoherent moment in which things only ever make sense momentarily. i think it catches that precisely. isn't that true! the second choice, a quieterfilm. yes, the quiet girl, an irish film, a young girl, somewhat withdrawn, sent to live with her relatives, her mother has another baby on the way, too many mouths to feed,
6:53 am
too many kids to deal with, so suddenly she finds herself with a couple that she doesn't know. they are standoffish with her, but she's told there are no secrets in this house, but there is clearly some cloud, however, but gradually, everything starts to thaw and she starts to find out what it's like to be wanted and loved and looked after. and she starts to blossom, to see the world in a different light. this sounds like such a simple plot, but it's beautiful. it's so well done. the quiet girl, she doesn't speak that much, she speaks volumes with her face. i just love this. i thought it was so moving, so touching. it reminded me... it captures the trauma and the joy of childhood. it deals with serious subjects — love, death, life, the universe and everything, but it's so moving. it's so well done and i was just completely enchanted by it.
6:54 am
i think you will love it. oh, i'm really intrigued and i'm really looking forward to it, yes. your homework because i guarantee this will be best out next week! nice to have a good bit of homework. and an interesting choice for number three? yes, the drover�*s wife, a revisionist australian western, takes a famous tale about a woman looking after her homestead, while her husband is off droving, it turns the tail on its head. he is a drover, he brings sheep down from the high country. your children? what do you know of my children? the little stretch of wall by the... none of your business. i'm just the drover's wife. cross me and i will kill you. yes, mrs. thank you, mrs.

bury that deep. now, in this version of the story, that ends up being the beginning of a partnership, of a friendship, and that character played by rob collins who actually takes inspiration from the director and stars to make stop as own grandfather, which she says she did as she used which is very well known in australia, to use it as the trojan horse, to tell a different story, aboriginal heritage, to tell a different story about the relationship between characters and the land, different story of heroism. now, obviously, i know you've seen the film — it's tough. there are things in it that are brutal as difficult, but i think the thing i like about it is first she is told this story many different ways, she had it as a stage show, she's written a version as well, an i think it has the sweep of a western, you get that real sense of the relationship between the lines and the characters
6:56 am
and the land, therefore, the heritage of the land, i think it's dramatically engaging, i do think those characters are well played, i really like the score, and i thought it was a bit heavy on the guitar a couple of times, but i thought the score is really inventive. i thought it was really well done, again, it is a comparatively small movie, but what did you think? i loved her, i loved the landscape, i weirdly enjoyed it, given that there is that element of threat, right from the beginning, in the sense that here is a woman just with her children in the middle of nowhere, and just that gun to protect her from anyone who might do them ill, and that is tough to watch. but she is a fascinating character, we don't want to give anything away, but i really enjoyed it overall, i thought a couple of the supporting characters, maybe some hokey acting, but it is engaging, it really holds your attention.
6:57 am
i think that when you're making a little movie like that, and it's something that needs to grab the audience's attention it is melodramatic, clearly overwrought, but that is partly in keeping with the genre. i actually thought it was a fairly confident picked, bit of film—making, can considering the complicated ideas it deals with, and it has mixed reviews, i've seen it a couple of times, but i think it is pretty solid. i definitely think it is worth watching and it is absolutely in my category of — enjoyed it so much more than i thought i would! and i will be flying the flag for this. so casablanca beats, this is a film with a positive message. this is a film about young people finding their voice in a difficult circumstances through music, through rap, and i think, particularly, now more than ever,
6:58 am
it's really great to see a film that is not ashamed to be uplifting, it is a film that's not embarrassed about the fact that it's got... it kind of owes a debt to fairly mainstream american movies in some way. elements of fame in some of it, which i loved! there are, in some of those, there is exactly that. yet it's tough and gritty and real, people are playing characters very close to home, it's a shot in an arts centre in which it has that feel to it. i think we could all do with a bit of uplifting, you know, punch—the—air drama at the end, and that is what you get from casablanca beats. i promise, next week, the quiet girl. but there is lots to commend it! and what about dvds this week? the theatrical reissue, doberman, this is a french thriller from the late �*90s, now celebrating its 25th anniversary,
6:59 am
making me feel like the oldest person on the planet, with big, brash, rocket launchers, explosions, cameras riding on cars, thumping techno score, i will be honest, i don't think it is your kind of movie, but the reason i mention it is because it is very �*90s. it's very, very �*90s. it's like a live—action cartoon. there is nothing about it which is understated. it's profoundly irresponsible and silly, but it's 2a years old and there is a chance to see it again. if you haven't seen it, it is something to see it, but see it on a big screen. i will look at last week's reissue, cabaret, which is still playing at some cinemas. do go and see it if you haven't seen it! one of the greatest movies ever made! cabaret, 50 years old. good to see you. enjoy your cinema going, whatever you choose to go and see. see you next time.

good morning. welcome to breakfast with naga munchetty and charlie stayt. our headlines today — dame deborah meets the duke: in an unprecedented royal visit to herfamily home, cancer campaigner deborahjames is given her damehood by prince william. ukraine says it's aiming to arm 1 million fighters as the country prepares for a new, long phase in the war against russia. 50 migrants are told that the government intends to send them to rwanda — the first to be removed under new immigration plans. good morning from wembley stadium at the start of the fa cup final weekend. today, it's the turn of the men with chelsea v liverpool. we report from the streets of turin with the host country italy's entry for tonight's eurovision: could they win it again?
7:01 am
for anyone who wonders what eurovision is all about, this is what it is all about. for mahmood, it is made him a star. good morning. we're in for a largely fine, dry day with warm spells of sunshine, but expect some heavy showers and thunderstorms this evening for the south west of england, and they're going to spread across england and wales overnight. i'll have all the details coming up shortly. it's saturday the 14th of may. our top story: the duke of cambridge has presented the cancer campaigner deborahjames, also known as �*bowelbabe' with a damehood at her family home. the 40—year—old, who hosts the bbc�*s you, me and the big c podcast, has raised more than £5 million for charity since revealing she is receiving end—of—life care for bowel cancer. graham satchell reports. what a day for dame deborahjames. less than 2a hours after the queen announced she would be honoured, prince william came to her parents' house to present
7:02 am
the award in person. the duke of cambridge spent much of the afternoon with deborah and her family. in a post on social media, dame deborah said: # ..baby, baby! # when you touch me like this... dame deborah has been a real inspiration for other people living with cancer. with remarkable good humour and extraordinary candour, she's been sharing every part of herjourney. deborah was diagnosed with bowel cancer in 2016 when she was just 35. on monday, she announced she was stopping active treatment. she said her bodyjust couldn't continue any more. the same day, she set up a new fund for cancer charities, her family constantly refreshing the justgiving page, celebrating each milestone.
7:03 am
cheering and applause. the total has now passed more than £5 million. applause continues. there's been huge of love and appreciation for what dame deborah has achieved. prince william said: i'm a bit numb because i think it's — it's a bit surreal because i know that i'm going to die. and the messages are beautiful but they're heartbreaking as well, and so, i'm trying to read what i can and i hope that when i'm not feeling well enough to read them myself, then my family will read them to me, and i think that will give
7:04 am
me some comfort. deborah says this is her favourite photo with prince william and her lookalike brother, ben. in what has been just a few short days, deborah — now dame deborahjames — has left an extraordinary legacy. graham satchell, bbc news. 50 migrants have become the first to be told they'll be sent to rwanda as part of the government's controversial resettlement policy. the prime minister revealed the figure in an interview with the daily mail. he told the paper he expected a lot of legal opposition to the plan, but said the government would "dig in for the fight." we're joined now by our political correspondent david wallace lockhart. a good morning to you. take us through a bit more of what the prime minister said and what might happen in practice? this minister said and what might happen in ractice? , , ., ., in practice? this is a wide-ranging interview that _ in practice? this is a wide-ranging interview that the _ in practice? this is a wide-ranging interview that the prime _ in practice? this is a wide-ranging interview that the prime minister. interview that the prime minister has given with the daily mail that is up this morning and in it, he reveals the first 50 migrants have
7:05 am
been told that they will be sent to rwanda for any processing of asylum claims and, of course, that is now government policy. anyone coming to the uk looking for asylum can be sent to the african country for processing. the important part to remember in all of this when it comes to this policy is even if that asylum claim is granted, someone then does not get back on a plane and come back to the uk. they are then encouraged to settle in rwanda. borisjohnson has told the daily mail he thinks there are going to be legal challenges to this from what he calls lefty lawyers that he says he calls lefty lawyers that he says he will begin for the fight, even open to the prospect of reform to the european on human rights in order to make his policy a reality. he says nothing is off the table. the prime minister says his aim is to stop the people smuggling trade, trade that he labels evil and his logic is if you remove the prospect of anyone getting a trade that he labels evil and his logic is if you
7:06 am
remove the prospect of anyone getting asylum in the uk, when you remove any incentive from people, for example, to get into small boats and try to cross the channel but there are people on the conservative benches even who are a bit uneasy about this policy and if you take one factor, for example, people who are lgbt, the uk government's own advice to its own citizens going to rwanda is that lgbt individuals can experience discrimination and abuse, including from local authorities. so easy to see why some may be quite uneasy about this idea of asylum seekers being sent to rwanda. those who have been told that will be the future, they now have 7—14 days to lodge exemptions. future, they now have 7-14 days to lodge exemptions.— lodge exemptions. david, for the moment, thank _ lodge exemptions. david, for the moment, thank you. _ ukraine's defence minister says his country hopes to arm a million fighters, as it prepares for a new phase of the war against russia. it's now 79 days since ukraine was invaded and russian troops are intensifying their attacks in parts of the south—east of the country, which is now seeing some of the heaviest fighting, as frances read reports. severodonetsk, in
7:07 am
the east of ukraine. as a russian armoured column tries to cross a river, ukrainian artillery appears to have destroyed an entire battalion tactical group, including dozens of tanks and armoured personnel carriers. ukrainian officials say this is the third attack in three days. but on the front line near zaporizhzhia, the russian assault continues to inflict heavy damage on family homes and people's lives. shells just missed this house. further east in mariupol, satellite imagery shows the extent of russia's relentless bombardment of azovstal steelworks. the last remaining ukrainian fighters in this city have been here for weeks. ukraine is still trying to get them out alive. in the black sea near 0desa, russian forces continue to control the strategically important snake island, but they've been under attack from the air with military equipment destroyed.
7:08 am
ukraine's defence minister said it is now preparing for a new, long phase of war, and it planned to arm 1 million fighters. this as ukraine's president claimed another six settlements in the kharkiv region were restored to its control within the last day, vowing for the liberation of remaining towns and cities. translation: there is no other result for russia, - and there won't be. in fact, no—one today can predict how long this war will last. but we are doing everything we can to liberate our land quickly. this is our priority — to work every day to make the war shorter. but ukraine is already seeking accountability. its army has released two decks of cards showing russians they suspect of war crimes. us forces produced something similar in its 2003 invasion of iraq, when listing the most wanted members of saddam hussein's government. it comes as ukraine starts its first
7:09 am
war crimes trial in kyiv. this, a 21—year—old russian soldier appearing in the dock and accused of killing an unarmed civilian. vadim shishimarin faces life in prison if convicted. it's not clear how he was captured or what the nature of the evidence is against him. russia has denied targeting civilians and made no comment on the trial. but war is still happening, and civilians near the front line continue to be forced underground. they remain defiant and they want their home returned to them. frances read, bbc news. a ban on buy one, get one free deals on unhealthy food in england is to be put on hold for a year. the government said the delay would allow a better understanding of the impact on household finances amid the rising cost of living. separate uk—wide plans to restrict the advertising ofjunk food before 9pm is also being postponed until 202a.
7:10 am
the government is cutting ties with the national union of students because of accusations of anti—semitism within the organisation. ministers say the union won't receive any government funding until the issues are addressed. the nus says it will appoint a senior barrister next week to examine the claims. it is ten minutes past seven and let's go back to the evolving situation in ukraine. russia's invasion of ukraine has sent a shock wave through the western security establishment, leading to countries like sweden and finland — where the prime minister has visited this week — to considerjoining nato. let's get more on this and discuss the diplomatic implications. joining us is the former british ambassador to russia, sir tony brenton. reflecting on what has gone on this week, what do you make of finland and sweden? it is week, what do you make of finland and sweden?— and sweden? it is good news, they are closely — and sweden? it is good news, they are closely associated _ and sweden? it is good news, they are closely associated with - and sweden? it is good news, they are closely associated with nato i are closely associated with nato already and are like—minded

countries and quite important military players but unfortunately, i think this is actually rather diminishes and increases safety and security in europe. what we will end “p security in europe. what we will end up with as a result of this, russia has launched this war, prevent the expansion of nato. nato is expanding and we will have an angry, more resentful and therefore, more dangerous russia.— resentful and therefore, more dangerous russia. resentful and therefore, more dancerous russia. ~ ., ., , dangerous russia. what would be the imlication dangerous russia. what would be the implication of — dangerous russia. what would be the implication of that? _ dangerous russia. what would be the implication of that? it _ dangerous russia. what would be the implication of that? it is _ dangerous russia. what would be the implication of that? it is doubly - implication of that? it is doubly wor in: , implication of that? it is doubly worrying, considering _ implication of that? it is doubly worrying, considering the - implication of that? it is doubly i worrying, considering the russian forces are doing so badly on the ground in ukraine at the moment because as russia looks around for ways of making itself be taken seriously, the only option they have left is nuclear sabre rattling, and thatis left is nuclear sabre rattling, and that is very bad news for everybody. it's interesting news coming out today in terms of ukraine. it's coming through that moscow administered kherson is going to ask to be included in russia, the defence ministry here has said, and it is saying, the implication is if
7:12 am
russia does carry out an excision referendum in kherson, the likelihood, as we understand, is it would likely manipulate the results to show a clear majority in favour of leaving ukraine. the plan has beenin of leaving ukraine. the plan has been in action and is coming to fruition, isn't it, for russia? yes, i mean, fruition, isn't it, for russia? yes, i mean. i — fruition, isn't it, for russia? yes, i mean. i don't— fruition, isn't it, for russia? yes, i mean, i don't know— fruition, isn't it, for russia? yes, i mean, i don't know that - fruition, isn't it, for russia? yes, i mean, i don't know that they i i mean, i don't know that they originally intended to take an all: on russia and obviously they decided to do that, yes, russia —— ukraine is right that if there is a referendum, there will be a calculated result and it makes ending this war that much more difficult because the ukrainians have made it clear that they are not going to go into a ceasefire even unless the russians agreed to revert the territory they have before the war started. there is no sign that the russians will accept that so, for the moment, this is going to have to be fought out on the ground and on the ground, it is not moving fast one way or the other and meanwhile, attempts to get sensible

7:14 am
arm the armed forces and at that point they may be forced into retreat but we're quite a long way from that at the moment. in retreat but we're quite a long way from that at the moment.- from that at the moment. in the meantime. _ from that at the moment. in the meantime, russia _ from that at the moment. in the meantime, russia is _ from that at the moment. in the meantime, russia is retaliating | meantime, russia is retaliating outside of, well, impacting the european mainland because it has stopped suppliers of electricity to finland. what is the implication of that? what is the impact there? it is about 10% of finland's electricity so it is not catastrophic on the point of view of finland but quite likely they will stop gas to finland which is probably more worrying but what we are watching, actually, is a gradual collapse of energy links between europe on the one hand and the russians on the other as various obstacles emerge. the russians are demanding that the european states pay in roubles for the gas. various european states have refused so russia has cut off gas to poland and bulgaria. there is talk about europe
7:15 am
cutting off its purchases of oil from russia. held up at the moment by, in particular, the hungarians but nevertheless, i don't doubt that will happen over the next few months. you are watching the gradual collapse of those markets and some scramble in europe to find substitutes and the fact is that oil, for example, is an extremely fungible export commodity. as the russians see their markets in europe disappear, so they are stepping up their exports to places like india and china so i don't think this will have a huge effect but it will undoubtably have some. me have a huge effect but it will undoubtably have some. have a huge effect but it will undoubtabl have some. ~ ,, ., undoubtably have some. we know there is the g7 leaders _ undoubtably have some. we know there is the g7 leaders meeting _ undoubtably have some. we know there is the g7 leaders meeting in _ is the g7 leaders meeting in germany, in berlin, today. there is a nato meeting as well, liz truss, attending. what do you expect to come out of that? the reaffirmations of our general _ come out of that? the reaffirmations of our general opposition _ come out of that? the reaffirmations of our general opposition to - come out of that? the reaffirmations of our general opposition to what - of our general opposition to what russia is up to, reaffirmations of solidarity. the g7 is used for not
7:16 am
solidarity. the g7 is used for not so much because it will strengthen the european or american commitments but because japan is in there and japan is a major importer of russian energy in particular and has committed itself to reducing its imports of russian oil although significantly not yet wasn't gas, which they import an awful lot. in japan in with the west and looking for ways to make life less comfortable for russia is very useful. thank you very much forjoining us this morning. it is thank you very much for “oining us this morning-* thank you very much for “oining us this morningfi it i this morning. it is a pleasure. it is a saturday — this morning. it is a pleasure. it is a saturday weekend - this morning. it is a pleasure. it is a saturday weekend coming i this morning. it is a pleasure. it. is a saturday weekend coming up. i don't know what your plans are. here's sarah with a look at this morning's weather. iam thinking... i am thinking... the early mornings are lovely at this time of year. absolutely. god is out there this morning. good morning. a lot of fine and dry weather out there. the early—morning dog walkers are up there already. blue sky and clouds drifting around as well so this is a
7:17 am
picture of gesture this morning. many of us waking up to a similar sort of picture. the cloud breaking up sort of picture. the cloud breaking up for most of us today. it will feel quite warm, a degree or two warmer than yesterday unless breezy as well. high—pressure generally dominating the weather through the day. not all day, though. fast forward to the evening hours, we will see this low pressure bringing some showers and thunderstorms to the south—west of england that will push north overnight tonight. before we get there, let's rewind through today. clear skies through central and eastern areas as the cloud breaks up. sunny spells for scotland and northern ireland. temperatures 17, 18 degrees. could see 20 degrees across parts of england. a fine day ahead for most of us. looking at the evening hours, showers push up to the channel islands, devon and cornwall as well. later this evening
7:18 am
the green colours showing heavy showers and thunderstorms pushing north across the bulk of england and wales. some of them arriving across northern ireland and southern scotland through the early hours of sunday. north of that, clear skies and cooler, fresher air, quite warm and cooler, fresher air, quite warm and humid as showers on the list on push—up from south. they will be hit and miss so we will not all see them but you may hear the odd rumble of thunder into sunday morning. during the day that showers push north, one or two for northern england and perhaps scotland. warm, 22 degrees before more heavy showers and thunderstorms up from the south late on sunday. all of the likes of north—east england and eastern scotland with breeze coming in the east of the north. it is a day off sunny spells and hit and miss heavy showers, perhaps the odd thunderstorm. it could be the next batch of showers and thunderstorms pushing in from the south overnight and heading on into monday, pushing north. as we start the new walking
7:19 am
week, low pressure moving in from the west, bringing breezy conditions. this is monday and you can see plenty of wet weather. may well save driver much of the day for east anglia and the south—east as well. elsewhere, what eastern scotland with the breeze coming from the east and outbreaks of rain, 12 in aberdeen on monday, down towards london, was only 23 degrees. a mixed picture over the next few days. this is how the week ahead is looking. showers, rain at times especially in the north and west. driest and warmest weather in the south—east, temperatures in the mid— 20s at times. get out and enjoy the weather today. beautiful blue skies for many of us. thank you so much. look at this. i know you are excited about your revision tonight. i haven't even asked about the details of your party. imagine doing it here in

7:45 am
and alarm, because they care, because that is coming from a place ofjudge and i'm painting this as if it is a man to a woman, you know, father or a brother or a friend saying that someone they know who is a woman. to what extent are they contributing to the problem by doing something that is straightforward, wanting to know someone is safe? it is not right that anyone should be required, feel the need to take all those precautions. but what do you say? i all those precautions. but what do ou sa ? , ., ., all those precautions. but what do ou sa ? , . ., ., you say? i understand that that comes, you say? i understand that that comes. of— you say? i understand that that comes, of course _ you say? i understand that that comes, of course that - you say? i understand that that comes, of course that comes i you say? i understand that that| comes, of course that comes as you say? i understand that that i comes, of course that comes as a position of care... it comes, of course that comes as a position of care. . .— position of care... it could be a mother saying _ position of care... it could be a mother saying it. _ position of care... it could be a mother saying it. that - position of care... it could be a mother saying it. that is - position of care... it could be a mother saying it. that is the i position of care... it could be a - mother saying it. that is the point. i know it is well—meaning, that if we really look at that comment shows that as a society we are willing to start my point of accepting that women as a whole should be constraining their lives, doing things differently as a response to
7:46 am
a small number of men committing acts of violence. but what we would never be a prepared to accept as normal men should be constraining the same way. don't go out alone, someone has been attacked, people say it is common sense. we just want you to be safe. imagine if we had said, well, actually, men need to go out in pairs until we catch this guy because one of them is attacking women and we don't know who it is. that would have been uproar. we talk about women, train carriages in the same way. itjust protects women. but if we say we need to call them anyone carried off the train because actually, 85,000 women a year are being raped by the vast majority of men, 1.6 million women are experiencing a year, half a million are sexually assaulted. we need the one man in the one train carried until we sort this out. and this is outrageous. it is women was myjob to somehow put their lives smaller

and smaller, carry their keys arena fingers, don't wear heels you can run, don't wear a short skirt, keep your hand over your drink, takes each other when you get home safely, and point with top tim slade is not on women to fix this. it is on the system to tackle this.— system to tackle this. yes, it is something _ system to tackle this. yes, it is something we _ system to tackle this. yes, it is something we keep _ system to tackle this. yes, it is something we keep on - system to tackle this. yes, it is something we keep on talking l something we keep on talking about, which is a shame. but let's keep the conversation going. thank you so much. laura's book is out now. if you've been affected by any of the issues discussed, please visit the bbc action line for support by searching bbc.co.uk/actionline. it's time now for newswatch with samira ahmed. hello, and welcome to newswatch with me, samira ahmed. as the votes came in at last week's local elections,
7:48 am
did bbc news provide an accurate picture of how the conservatives and labour performed? and it's the return of wagatha christie. is the libel case between coleen rooney and rebekah vardy suitable fare for news bulletins? some elections produce a clear winner and a clear loser, but the results of last week's polls across the uk were much more complex and, therefore, harder to analyse and summarise. votes were cast for local councils and some mayoralties in england, councils in scotland and wales and for the northern ireland assembly, but what would constitute success or failure for the two main parties, taking into account politicians“ tendency to try and manage expectations in advance? this is how things looked to the bbc news channel on friday morning. this is bbc news with the latest headlines. in local elections in england, the conservatives suffer a series of significant losses in london,
7:49 am
but across the country, labour are only making modest gains. results continued to come in during the day and into saturday, and as they did, the overall picture evolved. by the end of friday, it was clear that the conservatives had lost nearly 500 council seats, as was mentioned in an online article, headlined like this, which drew the ire ofjac freeman:
7:50 am
we asked bbc news for a response to that point, and they told us: it“s fair to say not everyone is so concerned about the outcome of local elections, which often struggle to enthuse large parts of the electorate. those who are politically engaged were well served by bbc news, which ran through—the—night programmes on both television and radio, as well as extensive coverage through the day on friday. it was all too much, though, for dawn cannell:
7:51 am
one way of trying to attract audiences to a topic like local elections is to go beyond those well—worn shots of ballot papers being counted and use visual metaphors, pictures which can be linked to the subject in question through a deft script line. that was the approach used for a report from wales on friday's news at six. steeped in labour history, the south wales valleys“ relationship with the party has wavered in recent years... cheering ..but today, vows were renewed. voters who may have flirted with other parties have returned to the fold. while some taste success, the picture is still mixed for most of wales.
7:52 am
david bussey was unimpressed with that approach and recorded this video to explain why. i've become convinced that there's a new batch of reporters and producers out there, recently released from university, with a brief to find new and innovative ways of telling old or recurring stories. that's great. i'd encourage that. but, hey, hang on a minute. on the news last week, i saw the picture of a councillor underan umbrella, sheltering from a storm. this was to do with the local electioneering. and at the same time, "vows were being renewed, "voters may have flirted with other parties," alongside a video of a couple getting married. and then there was the barman mixing cocktails, alongside the line, "while some taste success..." come on! innovation is great, but please treat us like adults. politics was centre—stage again on tuesday for the state opening of parliament,
7:53 am
with the government's new programme of legislature being read out this time not by the queen, but by prince charles. the pomp and ritual remained, but not all of it was seen or heard on the bbc“s special programme, as huw edwards had some guests to talk to. and i do not feel any sense, in what i've heard in the previews, that this is the speech that is going to have anyone at home going, "i think the government have got this "and they understand the pressures we're under." hold the thought because there's some more ceremonial activity happening. this is inside the royal gallery, where we have all the military and diplomatic guests. and here we have the yeomen of the guard, who have done that search of the cellars earlier. in a very familiar newswatch complaint, some viewers told us they could have done with less chat and more of the ceremonial. as laurie palmer put it:
7:54 am
does the term “wagatha christie“ mean anything to you? if not, suffice it to say that it refers to a dispute between rebekah vardy and coleen rooney, who are married to two footballers, which this week came to trial in the high court in london. here's a bit more background on the case from colin paterson on tuesday's news at one. once, they were friends, cheering on england together from the stands at the 2016 euros. but everything changed in october 2019 when coleen rooney did some online detective work to investigate who was leaking information about her to the press. she wrote three fictitious tales, including returning to tv and their basement flooding, on her instagram stories to see if they would end up in the papers — and they did. only then, after the use of ten dots to ramp up the tension, did coleen reveal that the one account she'd allowed to read them was rebekah vardy“s. mrs vardy denies being the source of the leak. as we found a couple of weeks ago
7:55 am
with actress amber heard“s defamation trial against her former partner, johnny depp, bbc coverage of stories featuring celebrities from the world of entertainment can really exasperate newswatch viewers, particularly when they're juxtaposed with more obviously weighty subjects. here's claire bath. i watched the one o'clock news on the bbc on thursday. i listened to the harrowing report of russian military slaughtering civilians. i saw the cctv of the brutal and cowardly murder of leonid. therefore, i was appalled that immediately afterwards, the bbc reported on the so—called wagatha case. that was so crass! this is fit for gossip columns, certainly not national news. there are so many issues happening nationally and worldwide that this has no place on a news programme.
7:56 am
it's a grubby little case that should be confined to the trash. while that sentiment certainly represents the majority of our feedback on this subject, there is another side to the story. when we featured complaints recently about that trial involving amber heard and johnny depp, we received this response from denise: we've also had some reaction to an item we ran last week about the practice of occasionally broadcasting bbc one news bulletins from locations around the uk. some viewers thought this was a waste of money, but allane hay disagreed:
7:57 am
finally, a documentary on bbc two on monday featured bbc news special correspondent fergal keane and the struggles he's had with post—traumatic stress disorder — or ptsd. for over 30 years, i've covered conflict for the bbc from across the world. archive: murder, mutilation, rape - it all happened here in freetown - as the rebel army swept into the city. saddam hussein and his regime have finally been destroyed. in that time, i've seen the best of humanity and the worst — too often, i'm afraid, the worst. archive: the second suicide bomber detonated his explosives _
7:58 am
in the middle of a crowd. people were blasted and burned. even those familiar with such horror were moved. you can hear the shelling here behind me. there is no cease—fire. it's an illusion. it's taken a heavy toll. i have a condition called post—traumatic stress disorder. there's a set of symptoms, whether it's twitching and having nightmares orflashbacks. it's a place of extreme fear is how i would ultimately define it. fergal keane featured on a number of bbc news outlets on monday, talking about how he'd been affected by ptsd, and his account resonated with many viewers, such as gail mcconnell, who described the documentary as: and jill mansfield agreed:

donbas. we saw the pictures all four wheels rushing river crossings, armed battalion vehicles, and they were trying to make ground in donetsk and trying to encircle ukrainian forces there but it seems they have made a cycle of shift in what they are trying to do. they are trying to cut off a small number of forces and as you said the fighting there is extremely intense as they try to make up— there is extremely intense as they try to make up thank you. -- mike t inr to try to make up thank you. -- mike trying to make _ try to make up thank you. -- mike trying to make up _ try to make up thank you. -- mike trying to make up those _ try to make up thank you. -- mike trying to make up those advances.

8:08 am
the process of changing the european convention on human rights and the uk's convention on human rights and the uk“s relationship with that in order to do so say nothing is off the table and his logic is that people are using people smugglers to put them in unsafe boats, for example, to take them over the channel from france and resulting in death, and if you therefore remove the incentive of essentially getting asylum in the uk, if you enter that way, the people smuggling rings are smashed because no one is going to try and make thatjourney but there are concerns on the conservative benches, for example, we talk about lgbt issues, the uk government's and advice to uk citizens is in luanda and individuals can experience this and individuals can experience this and abuse including from local authorities and you can see why some conservatives are perhaps slightly uneasy about how the policy will work in practice and how it looks and we know the 50 people we are told they will be sent to your wonderful processing have between

8:36 am
hello, this is breakfast with charlie stayt and naga munchetty. well, charlie will soon join you. coming up before nine, sarah will have all the weekend's weather for you. mike is in his happy place at wembley. they are cutting the grass, it must smell fantastic. the excitement ahead of two fa cup finals this weekend. absolutely.
8:37 am
it's the first _ finals this weekend. absolutely. it's the first time _ finals this weekend. absolutely. it's the first time we _ finals this weekend. absolutely. it's the first time we have - finals this weekend. absolutely. it's the first time we have had i finals this weekend. absolutely. i it's the first time we have had the men's and women's on the same weekend. today it is the men's and tomorrow manchester city and chelsea in the fa cup final. it“s tomorrow manchester city and chelsea in the fa cup final. it's a special occasion because they are marking 150 years of fa cup memories. but yes, we are not alone in the stadium any more because there is the noise of preparations, and you can smell, you are right. a fantastic smell. it has been synchronised lawnmowing for the next 50 minutes or so. electric lawnmowers, as if the grass wasn't perfect enough already, they are making sure it is ready for this special occasion. i was allowed in the tunnel earlier, but now it is a hive of activity. that is where liverpool and chelsea will be walking out led by their managers, a historic moment for any player. chelsea have been in the last two cup finals but have lost those, and they are determined to put it right. liverpool in their first fa cup final for ten years, which
8:38 am
liverpool in their first fa cup finalfor ten years, which is crazy to think of. because it is a special occasion, marking their history, i haven't got a programme but i have got a copy of the front cover and it is a retro throwback. what a beautiful image that is. chelsea and liverpool, the final tie, separating 150 years. it is close to call. in the league cup earlier this season it went to that marathon penalty shoot out before liverpool eventually won. you have to go back 30 years for liverpool's last fa cup final win at wembley. ian rush helping them to beat sunderland 2—0. just two more fa cups have followed that. the last in cardiff in 2006, when steven gerrard saved the day against west ham. back at wembley ten years ago, liverpool, like now, went into an fa cup final against chelsea having won the league cup. beaten 2—1, that's all they won that season.
8:39 am
a decade on, these are headier times. liverpool beat chelsea to win a cup in february and then the next trip to wembley saw them take apart manchester city to set up today's final and keep alive hopes of a quadruple. we will go for three or four trophies and it is clear that you will get it or you don't, and it is an absolutely special game, massive, massive, massive. for some of us, the biggest in their career. and we really want to enjoy that as well. and we want to deliver it for our people. fa cup finals at wembley are more familiar to chelsea. today will be their fifth in six seasons but only one win to show from that run which came against manchester united in 2018. chelsea have lost the fa cup final for the last two years in a row. including to leicester last season. they need their luck here to turn. chelsea's season has been dominated by off field problems. russia's invasion of ukraine signalled sanctions and the end
8:40 am
of the abramovich era. with new owners imminent, the cup provides them with a chance to end the season on a high. we will try everything and changes a lot if you play a final or win a final so there is a huge difference, i can tell you, and we need to do everything to be happy with ourselves and that we leave everything out there on the pitch. chelsea fans will hope they are the ones celebrating at wembley today. or it could be two down and two more trophies to play for liverpool. chetan pathak, bbc news. the synchronised lawnmowing has resumed. they are back out, they had gone off to empty their grass bins. i am nowjoined gone off to empty their grass bins. iam nowjoined by gone off to empty their grass bins. i am nowjoined by a former liverpool player, stephen warnock. he played in the fa cup during his

8:42 am
managers really going for this trophy and understanding what it means. i think the kick—off time changed to try to get a bigger audience and try to captivate the audience and try to captivate the audience in as well, but i was desperate to win the fa cup. i loved playing it season. i'm glad it is getting back that status that it deserves. i getting back that status that it deserves. .. getting back that status that it deserves. ,, , ., ., deserves. i think you are right, it has been a _ deserves. i think you are right, it has been a magical _ deserves. i think you are right, it has been a magical season. - deserves. i think you are right, it has been a magical season. it. deserves. i think you are right, it| has been a magical season. it felt as if that magic has come back with all the upsets and the non—league teams making their mark. it“s all the upsets and the non—league teams making their mark. it's going to mean so much for liverpool and chelsea for different reasons today. how do you see it playing out? “weill. how do you see it playing out? well, i think chelsea _ how do you see it playing out? well, i think chelsea does _ how do you see it playing out? well, i think chelsea does not _ how do you see it playing out? -ii i think chelsea does not reform is not the greatest. they won the other night against leeds united, but they have struggled of late, definitely since the sanctions came in on roman abramovich and there has been a lot of talk about where chelsea will be in the future. their form has dipped on the pitch, but there is something about chelsea when they play against liverpool, the systematic play. they don't come out of shape too much,
8:43 am
they make it very difficult, they stay compact against an open, expansive liverpool. however, you would say that liverpool should have enough quality on the day to beat them, but a cup final, there is so much at stake. nerves thatjurgen klopp spoke about there, this could be the biggest game in some people “s careers. you look at that and you think they will be nervous about these games. one thing you can say about liverpool in cup finals, they have only scored more than one goal in two of the cup finals since jurgen klopp has been involved. so they do seem to be a bit cautious in finals. it is an historic special weekend because as i mentioned we have got the women's fa cup final tomorrow on the women's fa cup final tomorrow on the same weekend. there is a lovely story regarding chelsea, the brother and sister could well win fa cup winners medals for the family together. it winners medals for the family toiether. , . , ,, . together. it is incredible. such . uali together. it is incredible. such quality players- _ together. it is incredible. such quality players- i— together. it is incredible. such quality players. i know - together. it is incredible. such quality players. i know rhys i together. it is incredible. such- quality players. i know rhys james has had a phenomenal season. his
8:44 am
sister has struggled a little bit with injury and it has not quite worked out how many expected it to, but she is a phenomenal player. you just wonder what a story it would be from the liverpool point of view i hope it doesn't happen, i have to say, but it is great to see the cup finals being played back to back over the weekend. i think it is great that the women's games now get the coverage they deserve and the quality that we are seeing this seasonis quality that we are seeing this season is carried into the fa cup, and we see two brilliant teams going head—to—head in the final. can we get a prediction from both matches from you?— can we get a prediction from both matches from you? yes, i'm going to io for 1-0 matches from you? yes, i'm going to go for 1-0 to — matches from you? yes, i'm going to go for 1-0 to liverpool. _ matches from you? yes, i'm going to go for 1-0 to liverpool. i _ matches from you? yes, i'm going to go for 1-0 to liverpool. i think - matches from you? yes, i'm going to go for 1-0 to liverpool. i think it - go for 1—0 to liverpool. i think it will be a close game, but i think it will be a close game, but i think it will be a close game, but i think it will be an interesting game. and then i'm going to go for a bit of an upset, i“m then i'm going to go for a bit of an upset, i'm going to go for manchester city to beat chelsea in the women's game. ijust think manchester city to beat chelsea in the women's game. i just think the second half of the season for them has been incredibly strong. i know
8:45 am
emma hayes “s team will be off the back of feeling great from winning the wsl title, but ijust back of feeling great from winning the wsl title, but i just think manchester city will win this one. brilliant stuff, stephen. enjoy your fa cup afternoon and all those traditions that keep it all going. cheers. former liverpool player and bbc five live pundit. two championship teams are also hoping to be here in the play—off final to try to reach the premier league later this month. luton and huddersfield have kept their dreams alive after their play—off semifinal first leg ended all square at kenilworth road. huddersfield took the lead at luton after 12 minutes, but luton, who have not been in the top flight, what a story this would be if they could get there. they haven't been there for three decades. the second leg is on monday. the other play—off between sheffield united and nottingham forest takes place later. and in scotland, it“s inverness who will face stjohnstone in the premiership
8:46 am
play—off final after they beat part—timers arbroath on penalties, and that's after inverness finished the game with nine men. phil mickelson, one of the biggest names in golf, will not defend his pga championship title after he withdrew. mickelson has been taking a breakfrom golf after criticising saudi arabia's regime. he had been rumoured to be par of the new saudi—backed rival to the pga tour. at 51, mickelson became the oldest ever major winner when he won the pga last year. but his decision means he won't be playing in oklahoma next week. britain's dina asher—smith was back racing the 200m in doha, where she became world champion in 2019. she finished third in the diamond meeting final though. american — gabby thomas was first. asher—smith withdrew from the 200m

vision is all about, this is what it is all about. for my mood, it has made him a star. —— for mahmood. and expect showers this evening. they will spread across england and wales overnight. i will have all the details coming up shortly. it“s saturday the 1ath of may. the duke of cambridge has presented the cancer campaigner deborahjames — also known as bowelbabe — with a damehood at her family home. the a0—year—old, who hosts the bbc“s “you, me and the big c“ podcast, has raised more than five—million—pounds for charity since revealing she is receiving end—of—life care for bowel cancer. she's described the visit as “quite surreal“ and said how generous the duke was, in spending time with all of herfamily. graham satchell reports.
9:03 am
what a day for dame deborahjames. less than 2a hours after the queen announced she would be honoured, prince william came to her parents“ house to present the award in person. the duke of cambridge spent much of the afternoon with deborah and herfamily. in a post on social media, dame deborah said... # baby, baby, when you touch me #. dame deborah has been a real inspiration for other people living with cancer. with remarkable good humour and extraordinary candour, she has been sharing every part of herjourney. she was diagnosed with bowel cancer in 2016, when she was just 35.
9:04 am
on monday, she announced she was stopping active treatment, she said her bodyjust could not continue any more. the same day, she set up a new fund for cancer charities. her family constantly refreshing the justgiving page, celebrating each milestone. the total has now passed more than £5 million. there has been huge love and appreciation for dame deborah and what she has achieved, prince william said. i'm a bit numb because i think it's a bit surreal because i know that i'm going to die. and the messages are beautiful but they're heartbreaking as well, and so, i'm trying to read what i can and i hope that when i am not feeling well enough to read them myself that my family will read them to me. and i think that will give me some comfort. deborah says this is her favourite
9:05 am
photo with prince william and her lookalike brother, ben. in what has been just a few short days, deborah, now dame deborahjames, has left an extraordinary legacy. graham satchell, bbc news. 50 migrants have become the first to be told they'll be sent to rwanda — as part of the government's controversial resettlement policy. the prime minister revealed the figure in an interview with the daily mail. he told the paper he expected a lot of legal opposition to the plan, but said the government would “'dig in for the fight." we're joined now by our political correspondent tells about this, there has been a lot of controversy attached and now it is about when it might happen. this and uk government policy that
9:06 am
anyone arriving in the uk and looking for asylum can be sent to rwanda and borisjohnson has given that interview with the daily mail today where he's at the first 50 people this will happen to have been informed, that is the case and an important aspect of all this is of someone sent to rwanda and claim asylum, the claim is approved, they do not then come back to the uk to live, they are then settled in rwanda and borisjohnson does talk about the fact that he thinks this will be challenged in the courts, he talks about a lefty lawyers he thinks will do so but he said nothing is off the table in trying to make this policy a reality and a justification for it from the government is that there are people traffickers, people smugglers, who are putting people in dangerous situations such as small boats crossing the channel and if you remove the possibility of an asylum claim in the uk, if you remove the possibility of living here, then people will stop making that
9:07 am
dangerous journey and it will break up dangerous journey and it will break up the people smuggling gangs but even on the conservatives“ own ventures, there are a lot of uncomfortable figures about it all and if we take one aspect of this for example, lgbt rights in rwanda, the uk government advice to its own citizens does state that people can experience this coronation and abuse on that front so you can see why some people perhaps are a bit uneasy about this policy playing out. for the moment, thank you very much. the time now is seven minutes past nine. a ban on buy—one—get—one—free deals on unhealthy food in england is to be put on hold for a year. the government said the delay would allow a better understanding of the impact on household finances, amid the rising cost of living. separate uk—wide plans to restrict the advertising ofjunk food before 9pm is also being postponed until 202a. the government is cutting ties with the national union of students because of accusations of antisemitism within the organisation. ministers say the union won't receive any government funding
9:08 am
until the issues are addressed. the nus says it will appoint a senior barrister next week to examine the claims. that return to one of the main stories this morning. —— let's return to one of the main stories this morning. as we've just been hearing, the duke of cambridge has presented the podcaster deborahjames with a damehood at her family home. prince william stayed for afternoon tea and champagne and gave deborah her honour — after she raised millions for charity in just a few days. joining us now is the royal commentator and journalist, jennie bond. good morning to you. you know what i'm going to do? welcome to the programme, let's bring up this image this morning. if we can get out the
9:09 am
to bring this image up of this moment in a sunny garden and prince william in person handing over this award, these truly are fantastic images. nell might guess, it's incredibly heart—warming. it“s images. nell might guess, it's incredibly heart—warming. it's a moment ofjoy. i think many people including myself have followed deborah's long journey and she's been so full of as much optimism as she could muster and her campaign about bowel cancer has grown in momentum from year to year and this visit not only shows amazing compassion and are so poignant and that he stayed all afternoon but that he stayed all afternoon but that it raised awareness yet again. yet again bowel cancer is headline news in that is the sort of spotlight that both deborah and the royal family can shine on issues like this. it is so true what you
9:10 am
say because this is all about the campaign and raising of the money and a woman doing remarkable things at the most difficult of times but nonetheless, somebody somewhere made a bold decision to say we can do this, we will go to her, we will do it, we will rip up whatever normal decorum exists and take a bold move in respect of what she is doing. it's a sort of thing william is doing more and more, hugging people in the street in the way the queen has never been known to and he is keeping the monarchy relevant and in touch and i did wonder yesterday when i heard that she had been awarded the day mood whether he would go along and i was talking to and producers and said it would be fantastic if he went along and he did, and it shows that the new rigid structure, things can be moved and done quickly, even with all the

9:12 am
my brother. white might guess, because of their similarities, that is one of the pictures there. we should also top about the queen. as you mentioned, she made an exception for sir captain tom and we have seen her in public, and it's beenjoyful. i always thought you'd get to the windsor horse show. people say she cannot get to the state opening parliament but you can get to the principal show? parliament but you can get to the principalshow? it parliament but you can get to the principal show? it is entirely different. she tried to make the long journey. this is in the back garden, she has never missed, i think in 79 years, has never missed and it is a lovely smile, radiant. it was great when she run break won a trophy, you wonder, what could you give the lady who has everything,

what could you give the queen that would bring her pleasure? well that trophy certainly did, the smile on herfacejust trophy certainly did, the smile on her face just lit trophy certainly did, the smile on herfacejust lit up the trophy certainly did, the smile on her face just lit up the whole arena. i would her face just lit up the whole arena. iwould not her face just lit up the whole arena. i would not have known this before but the queen's horse bowel moral... a five—year—old don meier announced that supreme champion. as you know, horses are the thing that she adores and gets the most out of come of all the engagements in pastimes, whether it is duties or personal. pastimes, whether it is duties or rersonal. , ., ., , pastimes, whether it is duties or rersonal. , ., ., ., personal. they do not gossip, do the ? personal. they do not gossip, do they? they _ personal. they do not gossip, do they? they don't _ personal. they do not gossip, do they? they don't give _ personal. they do not gossip, do they? they don't give all - personal. they do not gossip, do they? they don't give all your. they? they don't give all your secrets, you can say anything to a horse but lady louise, the earl and countess of wessex“s daughter, she was riding in the carriage which was bequeathed to her to prince philip and so that was a very poignant

kharkiv, the second city of ukraine, the quality fortress city, has really earned that name after more than 70 days of being under continuing apartment, attempted seas, the ukrainian defences have counter—attacked and pushed the russians all the way back to the border and the institute for the study of war, this influential think tank thinks that the russians have basically given up their attempts to take ukraine's separate city. it is not a turning point in the war but a big moment. i not a turning point in the war but a big moment-— big moment. i do not want to diminish anything _ big moment. i do not want to diminish anything being - big moment. i do not want to l diminish anything being spoken big moment. i do not want to - diminish anything being spoken about of course, we are following events in ukraine very closely, you guys, the team, general sat there doing that for us, there is some joy and we are going to take these pockets ofjoy we are going to take these pockets of joy when they we are going to take these pockets ofjoy when they come, you know what i'm alluding to, the eurovision song i“m alluding to, the eurovision song contest this evening. ukraine is entering and i think it's an opportunity, isn't it, again for the world, rest of the world, to show how they feel about what ukrainians
9:16 am
are experiencing?— how they feel about what ukrainians are experiencing? yeah, absolutely. this is an event _ are experiencing? yeah, absolutely. this is an event this _ are experiencing? yeah, absolutely. this is an event this year _ are experiencing? yeah, absolutely. this is an event this year infused - this is an event this year infused with politics. firstly i should say ukrainians do take your vision seriously, more seriously than probably people in the uk do, i think that's fair to say, they won it twice before, most recently in 2016 and this year it looks like they are the runaway favourite but it is notjust a frivolous event, it is actually infused with politics as i say so the russians have been disqualified, ukrainians look like they are going to wind. the ukrainian entry actually did not when the selection to play in eurovision, it was another artist but when it emerged that she had played in occupied crimea, she was disqualified and so they've come in as a back—up act essentially but more than that, they are a folk band, they are infused with ukrainian folk traditions and given that in this war, one of the sort of reasons that vladimir putin has
9:17 am
given for invading ukraine is that it's not a real country, i think the fact that they've got an artist who is so clearly imbued with traditions of ukraine is going to give the ukrainian something to really celebrate. the factories tradition and that music makes it all the more strong. joe, i“m and that music makes it all the more strong. joe, i'm sure you will be watching as well that you take care, you and the team out there. thank you and the team out there. thank you very much. white make these really are extraordinary times when you think about the reporting of what is happening, the reality of war and something like eurovision and the politics of what is happening is illustrated and will be played out tonight. in front of what is an audience of i think they say 200 million people watch that show tonight. whatever happens on stage and whoever winds will become part of this narrative, not the most important part, it“s of this narrative, not the most important part, it's a side story, but it matters. have you got a shot we can show you of turin? it is happening _ we can show you of turin? it is happening in — we can show you of turin? it is happening in north _ we can show you of turin? it is happening in north west italy this

9:19 am
thunderstorms on their way into the evening and overnight but for the here and now and much of the day, this is newport in the isle of wight, we have some cloud around here and there. a lot of the cloud will break up so those sunny spells breakthrough and less of a breeze compared to yesterday so it really does feel that bit warmer. much england and wales, extensive blue skies, some cloud here and there, northern ireland and scotland, the cloud is fairly thick this morning, hence the break—up so sunny spells, warmer than yesterday, down towards the south—east 22 — 23 celsius. this is where it will be all change, into the evening, some showers across devon and cornwall, the channel islands. they could be heavy and thundery so hale, thunderstorms and lightning brixton, if you're into northern ireland, dumfries and galley through the early hours of sunday, to the north of that cooler, fresher ever further south you at your sunday humid air, the mix of sunshine and heavy showers. sunday
9:20 am
will bring us that mix of sunny spells and some heavy showers with the chance of a bit of thunder and lightning and some of these downpours is they shift their way across northern england and scotland as well, sunshine returns to the south of that and again won 22—23 c but more downpours waiting there in the english channel and the best of the english channel and the best of the sunshine up to what parts of northern scotland. quickly get ahead into next week, unsettled, outbreaks of rain across northern and western areas, further south, things have stayed largely dry for the course of next week. thank you very much. it is nice... for some people. he's more used to being in the driving seat of the world's most prestigious racing cars, but four—time formula one champion, sebastian vettel, this week made a surprise visit to a prison, to open a motor workshop for young offenders. it“s hoped the mechanics course at feltham young offenders institute in west london, could help inmates leave with the skills they need to get a job. celestina olulode reports.
9:21 am
he's a world champion turned coach... is it better to drive in the ferrari or an aston martin? ..but formula 1 wasn't the day's main focus. i think life can be, you know, very fair but it can also be unfair and, you know, i think the most important thing is that we all get a second chance in life and we need to find something that sparks our passion or interest and, you know, obviously, that was the idea — the idea with the garage here. standing on podiums and raising trophies is what this four—time formula 1 champion is known for. but sebastian vettel is at this young offenders institution talking of second chances and changing lanes. for me, of course, i love racing. but racing, at the same time, stands for so much more. it's working with people, working in a group, working in a team, working together trying to improve — and, you know, the same thing you can say about here. it's, you know, you're not kind
9:22 am
going to fix this on your own. you might but it's much more fun if you do it together and, you know, some people are really good at fixing, other people are really good at co—ordinating the people and the group, so there's lots of skill sets can be found just here, in this small place. i think that's the key to give room, literally, for them to come together and experience, you know, working together and from there, set off, hopefully, a great path of their life. the course lasts for 1—2 months and during that time, offenders will learn essential skills like fixing tyres and engines and how to service a car — all vital skills to help them find work once they leave. obviously, coming out of prison, we're all going have criminal records and that could affect us getting employed, but being a mechanic is to open a doorfor us to be employed and living a crime—free life. what was it like today, meeting sebastian? very motivational, very inspirational. he's a very interesting person. because i feel like a lot of people,
9:23 am
they're only going to change when they're ready to change theirself, but i feel like if they take on board all the help that's coming and they be open—minded to it, ifeel like they're — i mean, you have to make a mistake to fix that mistake to learn from it and ifeel like if you make a mistake this far and you come into prison, young offenders feltham, wherever you go, i feel like this should be the stepping stone to your future, to show, like, you made a mistake, it's not bad — everyone makes mistakes — it's about what do to learn from that mistake. at 33%, the reoffending rate at institutions like these has decreased, but it is still high. the government says getting offenders back to work is part of the solution. every one of the businesses that i have spoken to who have taken that risk, that the leap of faith of employing an offender, they tell us that compared to the average, believe it or not, they're just as, if not more, employable, promotable and their commitment and their dedication and their focus is very high.
9:24 am
in recent years, parts of feltham have been criticised for high rates of violence. a report by the chief inspector of prisons last year noted that one in five children felt unsafe in the section housing under 18s. but this training drive could be the path to change the direction of these young lives for good. celestina olulode, bbc news. great story. i've lost charlie. you're gone, aren't you? have you got? dexter. dexter, do you want to look this way? they you go. back in the room. back in the room. dexter

9:40 am
and the journey ends here when the winners lift the trophy in the royal box. how do you feel, scott, 25 years on. what are your memories of that moment? it years on. what are your memories of that moment?— that moment? it either feels like esterda that moment? it either feels like yesterday or _ that moment? it either feels like yesterday or it — that moment? it either feels like yesterday or it feels _ that moment? it either feels like yesterday or it feels like - that moment? it either feels like yesterday or it feels like it - that moment? it either feels like yesterday or it feels like it was i yesterday or it feels like it was someone else. to be honest, it feels like someone else a long time ago, but i have got the medal to prove i was there. my dad had it for 20 years but he has given it back now. it was incredible and i am a big lover of the fa cup, not because i won it but because i grew up in the 70s and 80s where it was an event around again, you know, where you had mastermind, it“s around again, you know, where you had mastermind, it's a knockout, all those programmes leading up to it. all the fans, cameras, the coach is travelling down. there is the music!
9:41 am

9:44 am
other things, tojust we will use their expertise for other things, to just navigate a big health stories of the week. let's bring you up to date. so covert infections —— mac covid infections are at their lowest. that's according to the latest figures from the office for national statistics. there were an estimated 1.5 million people with the virus in the week to the 7th of may. that's down 500,000 from two million the previous week. it means that in the uk, around one person in a5 has covid. let's speak now to professor linda bauld and doctor chris smith. linda, do you want to pick up on this first of all? put those numbers and those figures we put out there in some kind of context for us. what in some kind of context for us. what we are seeing _ in some kind of context for us. what we are seeing is _ in some kind of context for us. what we are seeing is we _ in some kind of context for us. what we are seeing is we are _ in some kind of context for us. “iii“ysgit we are seeing is we are really coming down the peak of the omicron wave. people will remember that we had as many as one in 15 people in the population with the virus, really not that long ago. we had the a1 in december and january, and then ba two, this other variant in march
9:45 am
with huge numbers. the other really encouraging thing is that admissions to hospital have gone down by 23%. there's about 200 people in intensive care. things have improved substantially. but it has not gone away. covid is still with us. the vaccines are working, we have had another study recently showing the effectiveness of the booster that people are receiving, that fourth dose for older age groups and those immunosuppressed. but i think we can be positive about this spring and summer. i think we will have future waves, but at the moment things have really stabilised, despite of course continued pressure on the nhs. chris, do you want to pick up on that? , ~ chris, do you want to pick up on that? , ,, , , that? yes, i think this is where we ex-ected that? yes, i think this is where we expected we _ that? yes, i think this is where we expected we would _ that? yes, i think this is where we expected we would go, _ that? yes, i think this is where we expected we would go, actually. i that? yes, i think this is where we i expected we would go, actually. the virus follows a cycle of boom and bust _ virus follows a cycle of boom and bust. and — virus follows a cycle of boom and bust, and this new variant over cron came _ bust, and this new variant over cron came along — bust, and this new variant over cron came along just on the back of christmas _ came along just on the back of christmas and it greeted a population that were largely immune to getting severe disease ——

and rachel making sure people know about bowel cancer. yes. and rachel making sure people know about bowel cancer.— about bowel cancer. yes, dame deborah james. _ about bowel cancer. yes, dame deborah james, a _ about bowel cancer. yes, dame deborah james, a phenomenal| deborah james, a phenomenal achievement. deborahjames, a phenomenal achievement. we need to reflect now not only about deborah and her family and the colleagues who were involved in her pod cast, but also the fact that as we come out of this pandemic, we have got a big backlog of people who were not seen, not treated for cancer. there were about 50,000 fewer cancer cases diagnosed 50 , 000 fewer cancer cases diagnosed in 50,000 fewer cancer cases diagnosed in the uk. research is the key to better treatment in the future. what deborah has raised awareness of our two things in particular, as somebody who has worked with cancer charities and cancer prevention, first of all she has said two people, recognise the symptoms. in her case, bowel cancer. and if you are worried about any changes in your body, go to see your gp, ask questions and get support. the second thing is raising this
9:49 am
phenomenal sum for life—saving research, and that will mean she is particularly keen to see more personalised medicine. not all cancer is the same, and there are some phenomenal side is going on at the moment to really think about how we can tailor treatments to different genetic patterns, different genetic patterns, different patterns of disease in people, and really improve that for the future. i think she is going to leave a legacy which we will look back on and rememberjust how important it is that we focus on, as we come out of a pandemic, all these other conditions that cause so much harm in our population.— harm in our population. chris, you know all about _ harm in our population. chris, you know all about the _ harm in our population. chris, you know all about the costs _ harm in our population. chris, you know all about the costs of - know all about the costs of laboratory time, scientists and experts working in these fields. the reality is it costs money and it can be expensive to do that kind of work. . . . be expensive to do that kind of work. , , , ., , work. yes, but it is money well s-ent. i work. yes, but it is money well spent. i think _ work. yes, but it is money well spent. i think probably - work. yes, but it is money well spent. i think probably the - work. yes, but it is money well| spent. i think probably the best story— spent. i think probably the best story i— spent. i think probably the best story i can _ spent. i think probably the best story i can share with you is when i was about— story i can share with you is when i was about eight years old i had a geography teacher at school, and he left at _ geography teacher at school, and he
