the programme. it's friday 20th may. our main story. the police investigation into lockdown parties in downing street has ended, with a total of 126 fines for 83 people. borisjohnson has been told he faces no further police action, but questions remain over how much detail will be included in the final report by senior civil servant sue gray. our political correspondent david wallace lockhart reports. 126 fines were issued by the metropolitan police for events in downing street and other government buildings. only one of those went to the prime minister. some say that's one too many, others say apologies have been made and now it's time to move on. he didn't feel he was breaking any rules and certainly when i have been on the doorstep, some people do feel what he was fined for, perhaps the prime minister and the chancellor may have been a little hard done by. but even with that, victoria, he actually held his hands up and said, do you know what, i'm not going to argue about this,

i'm going to take responsibility, are going to pay the fine, and i want to move on and actually talk about those issues that people are really worried about at the cost of living or what is happening in ukraine. for opposition mps, it's the overall number of fines that's most shocking. they believe change has to come from the top and the prime minister must go. he presided over a place of work and his own home where there were 126 fines. i think there was clearly a culture of lawbreaking, i think that number 10 downing st was the venue for parties during lockdown, and i think the culture came from the top. the police investigation may be done and dusted, but the partygate fallout isn't over. senior civil servant sue grey is expected to issue her final report looking into these events next week. civil servants will be named in this. and a cross—party committee of mps is due to investigate whether or not boris johnson knowingly misled the commons. for now, there doesn't seem to be widespread rebellion in borisjohnson�*s party.

tory calls for him to stand down are limited. he hopes to move on from this saga. staffing structures in number ten are being altered to try and enhance the support offered to the prime minister. but with reports and inquiries yet to come, we haven't heard the last of partygate. david wallace lockhart, bbc news. we're joined now by our poltical correspondent iain watson. good morning, iain. we are still waiting, as you are well aware, for sue grey's report and now i suppose the questions are, how much detail will be in that.— will be in that. absolutely right. it's nearly _ will be in that. absolutely right. it's nearly six _ will be in that. absolutely right. it's nearly six months _ will be in that. absolutely right. it's nearly six months since - will be in that. absolutely right. it's nearly six months since this| it's nearly six months since this report was first commissioned. the cabinet secretary at the time simon case was supposed to be conducting it until it was found out that one of the dodgy event apparently happened under his nose so sue grey took over. there is going to be a lot of detail, my understanding is that mostly it is a civil service you are going to be in the firing

line, in hersights, you are going to be in the firing line, in her sights, for apparently offering bad advice to the prime minister. they should have been there to keep him in line. they had been a lively debate behind—the—scenes about how many senior civil servants would get named in the report. downing street said we will tell you when the prime minister, the chancellor, carrie johnson have been fined, but some of these people who were responsible for not stopping these parties or even instigating event in downing street, will they be named? they are concerned because it could lead to disciplinary action for them. this is an issue that needs to be sorted out before the publication of the report. while the civil service may be criticised, the detail of some of these events which borisjohnson himself attended, some mps will be looking at that closely to see if his initial denials of the rules were not broken and the guidance was followed, whether that was credible. that much is because cross—party mps

are looking at —— that matters, because a cross—party mps are looking at whether he misled, ie lied, to the comments. —— the comments. the us is sending another $40 billion worth of aid to ukraine, that's around £32 billion. the support package is the largest since the war began and is in addition to the $54 billion that has already been donated. our correspondent in kyiv, james waterhouse joins us now. these are very significant sums of money, talk to us about how that news has been received and what it will mean in practice.— will mean in practice. well, president — will mean in practice. well, president zelensky - will mean in practice. well, president zelensky and - will mean in practice. well, president zelensky and his | president zelensky and his politicians and ministers have called for one thing above everything else over the past few weeks, weapons, and more weapons. they have been grateful for what has already been sent but as far as they are concerned, they need to replenish what has been lost, that includes anti—aircraft missiles, tank missiles, ammunition, as well

as continued training for forces. this has been influential so far, the support for —— from the west are what the us has announced this morning and passed through shows how committed the wet is at the moment in terms of propping up ukraine in its defence of its own country. president zelensky said the us is contributing to restoring peace in ukraine, europe and the wider world but the fighting is still happening. he has described the donbas region in the east is being completely can destroyed, accusing the russians are mindlessly bombarding it. this is a place where russian forces have concentrated their efforts but there has also been eight years of fighting there between russian backed separatists and ukrainian troops. we are continuing to see a concentration of fighting there. meanwhile where the russians to

occupy territory, in the kherson region to the south, the governor there says he intends to make the region part of russia in the long term, something which will be so jarring for so many ukrainians. officials in this country have warned this is straight out of the russian playbook.— warned this is straight out of the russian playbook. thank you very much. one of the most influential figures in washington, nancy pelosi, has warned that the us congress will not support a free—trade deal with the uk if post—brexit trading arrangements in northern ireland are scrapped. the government intends to introduce legislation allowing it to amend customs regulations, to try to restore power sharing. however, the speaker of the us house of representatives said that removing the northern ireland protocol could undermine the peace process. there's anger over plans to use a former raf base in north yorkshire to house 1,500 asylum seekers. people living nearby have accused the home office of failing to properly consult them. residents from linton—on—ouse, near york, met civil servants

at a parish council meeting last night to outline their concerns. the centre, expected to open at the end of the month, is designed to help end the government's reliance on hotels while asylum claims are being processed. people are really angry. as we keep saying, this is the wrong plan for asylum seekers and for the village. it's in the wrong place because it makes no sense for anybody. the only people who support this are the home office and it's the wrong process because there have been no planning permission applied for, there has been no consultation, there has been no looking at the issue with sewage. so when the sewage system which is already overloaded tips over, it pumps raw effluent into the river ouse. so people downstream going to experience that because there will be more people here than were ever on the base. eight towns have been granted city status for the queen's platinum jubilee, with at least one in every uk nation, and on the falkland islands and isle of man. applicants had to demonstrate cultural heritage and show royal links in order to be considered for the title. charlotte gallagher reports. sun, sea and thejubilee.

bangor on the east coast of northern ireland is one of the towns to be granted city status. on a gorgeous, sunny day like today, it's easy to see why bangor is so popular with day—trippers and holiday—makers. but for people living here in bangor, they want city status to bring more investment and shops and businesses for them to enjoy, as well. it would be lovely. i used to come down here when i was younger. it was a beautiful place. plenty of chippies and all around there. i do think bangor needs the money spent on it, though. _ you sort of worry about it being a seaside town. that's how you see it, and you were to lose it's a bit of character for that. hopefully it doesn't. judges praised bangor�*s community spirit, naval heritage and its royal links. in 1961, the queen and the duke of edinburgh came here, with prince philip racing in the regatta. seven other towns have also won jubilee city status — doncaster, colchester

and milton keynes in england, wrexham in wales, dunfermline in scotland, douglas on the isle of man and, over 8000 miles away, stanley in the falkland islands. so what makes a good city? for wrexham, judges commended the historical importance of the football club, which has been sprinkled with hollywood star dust due to its owners, the actors ryan reynolds and rob mcelhenney. the romans loved colchester so much, they made it a capital. stanley, in the falklands, was once home to prince william, when he was a search and rescue pilot. douglas, where the rnli was founded, will be the isle of man's first and only city. it's very special and i think so often, when you're on the phone to somebody that doesn't know the isle of man even exists, to be part of that group of 38 that applied in the first place and to be

one of those eight that's picked, i don't envy the people who have to do the job, i'm not going to live. i'm not going to lie. i don't think i would like to have been that person going through it all. but for them to recognise our city is just fabulous, really. it's great. being granted city status doesn't automatically bring new investment and is more symbolic. but places like bangor are hoping there will be a sea change in opportunities. charlotte gallagher, bbc news, bangor. prince charles and the duchess of cornwall have spent the final day of their canadian royal tour assessing the impact of climate change on indigenous communities. the northwest territories have seen significant change since the prince of wales last visited more than 50 years ago. our royal correspondent sarah campbell is travelling with the couple and sent us this report. a yellowknives dene first nations welcome for the royal couple. this is dettah, a remote community located on the shores of yellowknife bay in

the remote north—west territories. it's home to around 200 people, most of whom it seems turned out to see the visiting royals. when the drum dancing began, the prince was only too happy tojoin in. so happy that hejoined in the drum dance and he participated and got to dance with our community. he saw our culture and our traditions, it was fantastic. prince charles first visited here back in 1970. and in the intervening years, the climate has changed. dettah is about four miles from here in a direct line across the bay. and in winter, the bay is frozen, so that allows an ice road to be carved out. the ice is so thick, up to a metre, that it can easily hold the weight of all the lorries needed to transport supplies to dettah. but the water is freezing later and later each year and with no ice, there is no ice road and thejourney to dettah is about four times longer.

it's making a remote community even more isolated. the prince came to see and hear for himself how these changes are being monitored with the indigenous peoples playing a leading role in working towards sustainable future. the recognition that in practising our way of life and our culture we strengthen our relationship to land, and in doing so, we start to take care of the land and we start to take care of each other. in yellowknife for the final engagements of this whirlwind tour. the historical mistreatment of indigenous peoples and royalty�*s role in reconciliation has been raised directly with the prince on this trip. he finished not with the apology on behalf of the crown that some had called for, but made clear he had listened. it has been deeply moving to have met survivors of residential schools who, with such courage, have shared their experiences. on behalf of my wife and myself,

i want to acknowledge their suffering, and to say how much our hearts go out to them and their families. a few time zones and almost 4000 miles from windsor, a flag was raised to celebrate the queen's platinum jubilee. sarah campbell, bbc news, canada's north—west territories. the time is 6:15am. time to find out what is happening with the weather. sarah, get muddy, first of all. always lovely to see you and that i see that rainbow and i think of isn't that lovely, but with a rainbow comes rain.- isn't that lovely, but with a rainbow comes rain. ., ., ., ~ rainbow comes rain. you cannot make a rainbow without _ rainbow comes rain. you cannot make a rainbow without the _ rainbow comes rain. you cannot make a rainbow without the rain. _ good morning. we will see a few of these today. a bit of a mix, some sunshine in there but generally i breezy, cloudy day none of yet —— a cloudy day none of yet and there is

an area of rain heading into the south—west and the north—west. both tracking each during the day, not a wash—out, some brightness in between. the rain in the south could between. the rain in the south could be heavy as it reaches kent and sussex through the middle part of the morning, and some heavy showers rattling in through wales as well, could be the odd rumble of thunder in some of these showers to the west. a few bright spots for southern scotland, eastern northern ireland but we have already got the cloud and rain moving from the north—west so a soggy morning across the western isles. heading to the rest of the morning, the area of rain in the south—east will clear away from the east coast by lunchtime and further north, a rash of showers pushing east. sunny spells in between and feeling fresher than recent days. 13 to 19 degrees, a breed in the north. it's the evening hours, cloud clearing to

no, when we have visitors, we will stop that. no more other guests from outside. especially when it's a group from one place. it is known as the land of 1000 hills. but to most people, they know rwanda as a place where a genocide took place in 1994. but since then, the country has enjoyed steady economic growth, and there has been some benefits to the people. but there are serious concerns about the country's civil rights record. rwanda is a country that routinely flouts international norms, protocols and laws with regards to refugees. this is a country that has abused refugees in its own country. allegations the government denies. there's nothing wrong with rwandan human rights, the human rights record. no matter what these external organisations say. we also have surveys and indices which talk about how safe rwanda is.

we have made tremendous progress in the last 28 years. rwandans trust their government. we have people who come to live here and there are, we consider ourselves a country of migration. to illustrate that, we are invited to a transit camp a 90 minutes drive south of kigali. it is run by the un refugee agency. close to 1000 migrants, mostly from the horn of africa, were brought here from libya. the majority had been resettled in europe or north america over the last three years. this 26—year—old will soonjoin them. he says he was imprisoned, endured torture and survived a shipwreck trying to get a better life. now he is close to achieving his goal. canada, just i'm waiting on travel. if you had another option to settle in africa,

in an african country, would you take it? for me, i don't know, because as i told you, i want to go to canada. africa, i'm not so sure. like most migrants, it's to go to a western country. rwanda is not where they hope to settle. and that raises question about the uk deal and whether it will work. anne soy, bbc news, kigali. time now to get the news, travel and weather where you are. bruckheimer h bruckheimer ello, this is bbc this is bbc london, i'm tarah. we know that knife crime is a huge issue in the capital. but the number of people injured in knife incidents has fallen since 2018. the met says more than 3000 knives have been seized from london's streets

by a specialist was created to try and reduce violent crime. the types of knives we see are often machetes, combat knives — knives designed to kill. they don't have a practical purpose. i think when we count those knives, then, actually, we are counting victims of crimes that never happened. just 9% of operational staff at london fire brigade are women. but after seeing fighfighters help her father when there was a fire at his business, chloe decided that's what she wanted to do now she wants to tell young girls it's a career that's open to everyone. being a firefighter is a tough job but what keeps me coming back is knowing i get to serve my community and inspire and empower people to become firefighters. all those little girls who think they can't be a firefighter, i am showing them that you can and, hopefully, influence the next generation.

you can see more of that on our evening programme. if you're heading out on public transport this morning this is how tfl services are looking right now. there's severe delays on the picadillly and district lines this morning and minor delays on the metropolitan line. and for all the latest travel news where you are — tune into your bbc local radio station for regular updates throughout the morning. the weather now. good morning. there's quite a bit of cloud around, a bit of mistiness, as well, and some rain on the way. quite heavy and persistent rain moving across through this morning. gradually clearing. this afternoon, it turns showery. a few sunny spells and the wind picks up. temperatures fresher, as a result. a maximum of 19 celsius. overnight, any remaining showers clear. the wind drops. we could see under the clear sky one or two mist patches by dawn on saturday.

minimum temperature dropping down to 9 celsius. for saturday, you can see there are bright spells in the south—east first thing, but the cloud will gradually start to increase through the day. it will still be bright, there will still be sunny spells. it should stay dry through tomorrow, though with the thicker cloud later in the day, you mightjust get the odd spot of rain, but that's about it. temperatures tomorrow getting up to 21 celsius, so a degree or higher. a dry day for sunday. more sunshine around, but a bit of cloud in the afternoon. turning progressively more unstable into monday. some heavy showers around through then. but temperatures stay similar as we head into next week — high teens, low 20s. i'm back with the latest from the bbc london newsroom in half an hour. plenty more on our website at the usual address. and at the usual address. we are on social media.

hello, this is breakfast with charlie stayt and naga munchetty. this weekend marks the fifth anniversary of the manchester arena attack. 22 people lost their lives and, throughout the week, we've been sharing stories of some of the legacies they've left behind. this morning, we're hearing about 15—year—old olivia campbell—hardy whose family has founded liv�*s trust, a music and dance charity set up to help change young lives. jayne mccubbin has this report. on the half—past ten news, it was filtering through to say there had been an explosion at the arena. terror came to a teenage pop concert here in manchester last night. - i just went and picked andrew up and we went into manchester looking for her. there were children crying. just small children. they all have their

ariana grande ears on. they asked for a current photo. we'd go to every checkpoint. we would give her date of birth. we were in the hotel. the staff were going in the toilets, "anyone called olivia here?" and it was just such a shock. people say the only way they can cope with it is to know that she had had such immense pleasure at watching an artist, that she'd be dancing and singing the songs. that she had come out still singing them and not knowing a hing about it and the light went out. olivia was 15 when she was murdered, along with 21 others in manchester arena. she was larger thanlife. i mean, the world was made for olivia. she wanted to be a dancing and singing teacher. and that is why the focus of the charity has just been so important.

it has. it's the reason to get up in the morning. yeah. the charity they launched in their granddaughter�*s name is called liv�*s trust. it helps young people receive education in music and dance. people like jessica. you went to school with liv, didn't you? yeah, she was in the year below me. and, yeah, we did the talent shows together. which was really lovely. sorry, i'm really... the ripples of trauma from manchester's bomb have touched so many lives. but liv�*s legacy is helping jess and others like her to live their dream. we've brought a visitor. because you've not seen each other very much because of the lockdown. one more surprise.

support from liv�*s trust has paid for singing lessons from wendy, liv�*s own former teacher. olivia came to me for about two and a half years. we had a great relationship, great relationship. it hit hard. but the work that's come out of this, what steve and sharon... i tell you, nobody knows how wonderful they are unless you're very close to them. they are special people. more than that, more than that. injess's case, she is going to be able to live her dreams? i hope so. with a smile like that, she lights up every room she walks in. like, i wouldn't be able to do what i'm doing today if it wasn't for both of you. and, yeah, just help me with all sorts of things, like my head shots for my auditions and did my teaching exam to be like a qualified dance teacher. well, olivia wanted to be a teacher, so... you know, you being a teacher is off our tick list. # share the joy.

# share the joy! and this is another scheme where liv�*s legacy and her grandparents' love is helping to spread joy. well, this is encore fire choir. hello, everybody. what difference does the funding from liv�*s trust make? funding from liv�*s trust enables us to give these wonderful youngsters behind mejust the best opportunities at no cost to themselves, because we believe music should be about singing and enjoyment and enrichment, rather than about finance. so thanks to liv�*s trust, we are able to do that for these children. shall we bring them out? shall we do it? you can show your appreciation. let's go and get them. wait there. a clap, get ready. cheering

# a sound of hope. # a sound of peace. # a sound that celebrates . and speaks what we believe. just amazing, all of them. ijust so... it's just so lovely to see them grow up. # when we share a song. it helps enormously. helps enormously. just take pleasure and pride in the achievements these pupils have done. yeah, we've so many, so many, so many special memories. all in liv�*s name? all in liv's name, yeah. she has achieved her dream in what we've achieved for her. and we like to think she would have been there for each one.

and that's what she would have done. she would have been really proud of what we have achieved in her name. so lovely seeing steve talking about olivia. that choir used to be called bury young voices. and then you see steve the grandfather singing with them, as well. we will be speaking to steve. and that choir, encore. it is often the case that music, singing, can be so helpful to people in those situations. very moving and somehow cathartic. we will hear more later. petrol and diesel prices have hit new highs again this week

and new research suggests electric cars might not be the solution just yet. it is tricky. we used to talk about the weather all the time. now the conversation is often have you seen the price of petrol lately? people think about electric cars and that old argument infrastructure being a problem. it is a big issue. a lot of worries about the cost of living. but transport is a real worry because there is no alternative for many people who have to use their car to get into work. those prices put pressure on so many households. good morning. a pretty empty forecourt here this morning but the cars, bikes and vans coming through to fill up might well have a bit of a shock. a litre of petrol will now set uk drivers back to the tune of £1.68. that record high — yes, another one — was set on wednesday. diesel is also up to £1.81 a litre.

since the beginning of the year, petrol has gone up by 22.5p a litre, diesel by 32 pence. the cost of filling an average tank of diesel is now not far off £100. drivers we spoke to yesterday were unsurprisingly angry about the prices and were wondering where the 5p fuel duty cut announced by the chancellor in march had disappeared to. i used to fill my car within £78, now it's over 100, which is too much. i have to commute into work. i travel into work at 4:30am. i can't take the train, can't take the tube. so i have no choice. i ride a bike because it's cheaper, but it's still not cheap. every day, going up. i don't know what this is.

because the government said from every litre 5p — where? i the government cut fuel duty. have you noticed that cut at all? no. it's pretty much the same. it's gone up. it was low again a few weeks ago, now it's gone back up. so now were suffering again. i'm asking people about petrol prices. scandalous. absolutely scandalous. scandalous! he didn't sound impressed and he is not alone. it's notjust drivers who are unimpressed. the government wrote to the trade body representing petrol retailers this week claiming the fuel duty cut had not been passed through to drivers in any visible or meaningful way. the competition and markets authority are going to take a closer look at what's going on. the retailers responded saying they share concerns, but that there are additional costs that need to be considered. they say they warned the government that a 5p fuel duty cut was not going to be enough to offset the costs of storage, delivery, payment card systems, electricity and the higher minimum wage.

the rac told us there was another possible solution. the chancellor did say before the spring statement that a vat cut the rac did say before the spring statement that a vat cut would be betterfor drivers, because there is less that the retailers can do. because duty has to apply on the wholesale price of fuel. so there is that element where they can still increase their margins. it's a little bit harder when it's a vat cut and it probably would have been far more beneficial and made a big difference to drivers when they fill up at the pumps. and that is still an option for the chancellor and we urge him to look at that again. it does seem wrong that the government are benefiting. the higher the price goes, the more vat they take. that could be something for the chancellor to consider. another possible solution to avoid higher petrol costs is — of course — to switch to electric. however, new research out today suggests1 in 10 of these public rapid charging points are not working.

tomos morgan has more. slowly but surely, we are swapping the pump for the plug—in, as britain's driving scenery becomes ever greener. yet charging your electric car out on the road can be a tricky course to navigate, with a current public infrastructure described by owners as a very mixed picture. there are currently two main issues affecting ev owners. firstly, the number of charges across britain. it really is a postcode lottery. for example, in london, at the moment, the total number of public power points vastly outnumbers any other region across the uk. and wales, northern ireland and the north—east of england are back of that queue. the second issue is around reliability. on a journey around wales, i spoke to several electric vehicle owners, one of whom had experienced range anxiety — a fear of running out of power before their destination is reached. usually due to a lack of or unusable devices. i've always got range anxiety.

you have got to plan your journey, pretty much. if you plan it, or replan it on the way, you know, it's ok, it worked. you just have to search for where the charging points are and hope that they're working. you lose hours of your holiday. we don't want to be here today. we've travelled out of our way- to make sure we've got enough charge in the car to get home in two days' time. - trying to find the right charger, trying to find a charger that works and trying to find enough of them is the other issue. in their recent charging strategy, the uk government has set a future target of having 99% of all rapid chargers, those capable of powering up to 80% within an hour, in working order at any one time. but a set of snapshot figures from march seen exclusively by the bbc, provided by zap map, britain's leading ev charging map, shows that currently, one in ten of these rapid devices were out of service —

newer versions proving most reliable. within the next few years, westminster say they will penalise charge—point operators or cpos, for not keeping up with reliability standards. and as the affordability of these cars improves, reliability of chargers has now become the biggest roadblock for newer buyers, according to some. the one remaining and biggest thing would be the perceived change in difficulties around the charging infrastructure. which is why it is so key that not only are they in reality reliable, but the perceived nature of them is that they are reliable. the welsh government said they were funding roll—out of rapid plug points whilst working with westminster to expand the network here. parts of this issue are devolved, yet much still relies on uk on uk government support. a spokesperson from the department for transport said that public charge point reliability is improving, adding that working on setting out how regulations will be enforced to ensure that good

consumer experience across the uk is ongoing. as the electric horizon moves closer, the scale of completing this challenge should not be underestimated, or underpowered. we'd love to hear from you on this one. have you had to abandon the car because of the cost of filling up? maybe you have found ways of keeping costs down. if you have an electric car are you struggling to find charging points that work? let us know. we'll have an electric car expert with us at half eight to go into this in more detail. thanks. something that frustrates lots of people. mike's here with the sport. just glancing at these images. everything good on the pitch and happy celebrations. huge relief for everton and a good

night for burley. this is the drama at the bottom of the premier league. everton are safe and burnley have a point towards safety. the celebrations last night, another incident involving a player, manager and this time patrick vieira involved in an altercation. but overall everton put up their feet. everton will be in the premier league next season after a dramatic 3—2 win over crystal palace ensured their top flight status, for the 69th consecutive season. it has been a roller coaster ten months, for the toffees who appointed frank lampard as manager injanuary, but despite so many ups and downs, they're staying up. joe lynskey reports. # everton! at this club, this year, there is drama almost every week. now, everton and their manager could let it out. they've stayed up in the top flight after 90 breathless minutes where, at one stage, they faced the worse.

at one stage, they faced the worst. crystal palace had the first half to themselves. they barged into goodison and led 2—0. everton�*s future was going down to the last day, but then it changed. michael keane hauled them back in it. then richarlison made it 2—2. with every goal, the noise was growing. then with just five minutes left, everton exhaled. now this barren season had a spectacular end. even for a coach who won so much as a player, this was special. one of the greatest nights of my footballing life, career. and, hopefully, this can give me a breathing space to go away and have a nice break. i need to see my family some more. i miss my family. working up here a lot. i miss my wife, i miss my children.

we spend a lot of time, i've got incredible support. and that's coming. palace's manager was caught in the pitch invasion. patrick vieira looked to be taunted and then kicked out at a fan. afterwards, he said he had nothing to say. everton now are safe. who goes down is now between leeds and burnley. commentator: barnes scores! who took the lead at aston villa, but their joy was short lived. a 1—1 draw means it goes to the last day. everton have done their bit. they've spent 68 years in the top flight and yet, just to stay in it still means this much. joe lynsky, bbc news. joe lynskey, bbc news. so relief all round there, but concern deepens at leeds, who are now in the final relegation place, on goal difference behind burnley, who host newcastle in their final match on sunday, while leeds go to brentford, needing to better burnley�*s result. meanwhile, towards

the top of the table, chelsea have all but secured third place, after a one—all draw with leicester at stamford bridge. james maddison put the visitors one up, before marcos alonso levelled for chelsea. thomas tuchel�*s side are three points above spurs, but with a far better goal difference. there was also a pitch invasion in the league two play—off semifinal last night, where the swindon town manager ben garner called for action to be taken by the football authorities, after their defeat to port vale. the match went to penalties, after it finished 2—2 on aggregate. vale won the shoot—out 6—5 to set up a meeting with mansfield in the final at wembley. afterwards, fans swarmed onto the pitch, and garner said his players were physically and verbally abused. that incident comes after a fan, was jailed after running onto the pitch and headbutting sheffield united's captain billy sharp, at the end of their play—off defeat at nottingham forest's city ground on tuesday night. sharp was knocked to the ground, and required four stitches for a cut on his lip.

forest season ticket holder robert biggs, who's 30, pleaded guilty to assault and occasioning actual bodily harm, and was jailed for 24 weeks. rory mcilroy made a blistering start at the us pga championship. he's got a one—stroke lead in his bid, to end an eight—year drought without a major. the four—time major champion had this shot on the 12th hole, that set him up for four consecutive birdies on the back nine. americans tom hoge and will zalatoris are mcilroy�*s nearest challengers, on 4—under. it was nice to get off to that good start and sort of keep it going. i feel like this course, it lets you be pretty aggressive off the tee if you want to be, so i hit quite a lot of drivers out there and took advantage of my length. and, you know, finish that off with some nice iron play, some nice putting. still a long way to go. it is

keeping it going in that consistency. rory mcilroy, jordan spieth and tiger woods. what are three to watch. we now know the full extent of law breaking in government, after the met police confirmed a total of 83 people have been fined for attending gatherings across downing street and whitehall during lockdown. borisjohnson has been told he will face no further action after police closed their investigation. we're joined now by the leader of the liberal democrats, sir ed davey. good morning. the news came outjust before lunchtime yesterday. maybe you have had time to digester this. where are you at in terms of the investigation done and dusted? i think like millions of people, still horrified there was so much lawbreaking going on at number 10, the place the laws were written,

being broken. the prime minister broke the laws. the liberal democrats have said that if the prime minister breaks the law is analysed to parliament, he has to go. that has been our consistent point. people feel let down, they sacrifice so much in the pandemic, and they are still angry. we found that when we talk to people during elections. irate that when we talk to people during elections. ~ ., ,, ., ., , elections. we have known about this since january — elections. we have known about this since january and — elections. we have known about this since january and he _ elections. we have known about this since january and he had _ elections. we have known about this since january and he had one - elections. we have known about this since january and he had one fixed i since january and he had one fixed penalty notice. the metropolitan police says he has not done anything to justify being issued another, it is done. he to justify being issued another, it is done. , , ., ~ to justify being issued another, it is done. , , ., ,, ., is done. he still break the law, which is the — is done. he still break the law, which is the whole _ is done. he still break the law, which is the whole point. - is done. he still break the law, l which is the whole point. liberal want the prime minister to go not just because you break the law but because he is incompetent. he is not dealing with things like cost of living. pensioners need help. boris johnson does not seem to be listening. he has not done enough

top macro that is a separate point. looking at the cost of living crisis is a separate point to him breaking the law and having been issued a fine. my question really was about how long you will be horrified about this, is it for ever? because it is done. y this, is it for ever? because it is done. g , ,., this, is it for ever? because it is done. g , , ., ., done. my point is he should go. he has lost the — done. my point is he should go. he has lost the trust _ done. my point is he should go. he has lost the trust of _ done. my point is he should go. he has lost the trust of british - done. my point is he should go. he has lost the trust of british people | has lost the trust of british people because he broke the law. if people... i hear it from the conservatives, let's move on. but he broke the law, that has not changed. when we look at the cost of living crisis, he is failing on that also. whether you are worried about him breaking the law, worried about him dealing with issues millions care about, he has not done them, he should go. he has lost the trust of the british people. [30 should go. he has lost the trust of the british people.— the british people. do you believe boris johnson _ the british people. do you believe boris johnson knowingly _ the british people. do you believe boris johnson knowingly misled i borisjohnson knowingly misled parliament? i boris johnson knowingly misled parliament?—

going? the liberal democrats, the labour party have called for his resignation and he says he will not resign. he said wait for the sue gray report which we expected a few days. where do you see this going? it is in the hands of conservative mps in reality. if they were defending our democracy and defending our democracy and defending decency and politics and the rule of law, those core british values, they would get rid of the prime minister. the longer they delay, the longer they allow this lawbreaking, indecent prime minister to stay in office, the longer they become associated with him. what i found talking to lifelong conservatives, they will never vote conservatives, they will never vote conservative again while these british values are trashed by a conservative prime and party. i

really think conservative mps have a constitutional duty, patriotically duty to get rid of this man. sir ed dave , duty to get rid of this man. sir ed davey. leader— duty to get rid of this man. sir ed davey, leader of _ duty to get rid of this man. sir ed davey, leader of the _ duty to get rid of this man. sir ed davey, leader of the liberal- davey, leader of the liberal democrats, thank you for your time. at 7:30am, we will speak to dominic raab, thejustice secretary. right now, we can focus on an event in london last night. you have probably seen a few of them. the top gun thing has been rolling around the world. massive. it was in the south of france and now they have turned up in london, alongside members of the royalfamily for the uk premiere. it's 36 years since we first saw tom cruise as captain pete "maverick" mitchell. and there were all the famous lines. he wasjoined in leicester square by

the duke and duchess of cambridge, should i say tom cruisejoined should i say tom cruise joined the duke of cambridge? here's our entertainment correspondent steffan powell. when you're coming up with a checklist for your dream film premiere, you've probably got hollywood royalty, actual royalty, up—and—coming stars, a crowd that's keen for a good time, and something unexpected, like a fighterjet, on your list. safe to say that this one had the lot. good morning, aviators, this is your captain speaking. top gun maverick is an unashamed throwback to the 1980s, to those blockbuster films that made hollywood so popular. and what tom cruise and his team hope is that by taking inspiration from the past, they can save cinema's future. i'm always thinking about the big screen and that experience. and i know audiences want it. so it's beautiful that i think everyone is feeling it

and enjoying this moment. knowing, you know. as i said, it is emotional. i'm talking to you with no mask and here we are. it's wonderful to be able to have this time. the sequel to 1986's top gun is bringing a hollywood icon back to oui’ cinema screens. there's lots of nostalgia with some new yet familiar faces mixed in. well, the challenge is don't mess it up. you know, don't be the weak link. but i felt very taken care of in the hands of not only tom, whose excellence is in every frame of this film, but also jerry bruckheimer. i knew what i could bring to it and i was thrilled to be a part of it. i was definitely aware of the fact that it is a beloved movie and the fans have a lot of expectations. so it's definitely on my mind. it's also a very special movie in tom's career and jerry bruckheimer's career. so no pressure?

no pressure. the last few years have been devastating for the cinema industry. attendance figures plummeted due to covid. at the moment, down roughly 60% on their pre—pandemic levels. so creating buzz and anticipation is now key for films and film—makers. it is like you have a kitchen at home, right, and yet you like to go out and eat. so you have to have good food out there. we have to make good movies that people want to go see. and top gun is one of those movies. there is a light at the end of the tunnel with attendance figures starting to rise, so for people like tom cruise and jerry bruckheimer, this movie, with all its high—octane action, will help that trend continue and get bums back on cinema seats. i'm always looking at how i can push my artform to entertain in any way that i can. that's why any time when i went to travel for 36 years for top gun,

people were asking in many different languages for top gun. and i was like, how do i do a sequel? so i'm thinking, how do i do it, how do i make it relevant for today and something that also is hand in glove with the other one and that next chapter? so i do think like that, i think about it all the time. as red carpets go, as was described there, quite a big one. massive. time now to get the news where you are. hello, this is bbc london, i'm tarah. just 9% of operational staff at london fire brigade are women but after seeing firefighters help her father when there was a fire at his business, chloe decided that's what she wanted to do and wants to tell young girls it's a career that's open to everyone.

being a firefighter is a tough job but what keeps me coming back is knowing i get to serve my community and inspire and empower people to become firefighters. all those little girls who think they can't be a firefighter, i am showing them that you can and, hopefully, influence the next generation. now, it might not surprise you that prices have jumped for homes along the new elizabeth line, for both buyers and renters. figures from rightmove show homes near maryland station in newham have seen the biggestjump with values more than doubling in a decade. and with only three days to go until the elizabeth line opens, what do you want to know about crossrail? we'll be answering your questions later today. and find out the latest on our programme at 6.30 this evening. now, londoners have done well

at the ivor awards which happened last night here in central london. the awards honour songwriters and composers. singer songwriter raye just missed out on the win which went to rapper dave, but she still seemed pretty happy when we caught up with her. songwriting is done in the dark, in the shadows. you know, people can't see how it works often, and what goes into it. what it really takes, what you really need to give, you know. butjust this recognition, i'm beyond, and beyond. this is like the biggest thing for me, like, crazy, crazy. if you're heading out on public transport this morning, this is how tfl services are looking right now. there's severe delays on the picadillly and district lines good morning. there's quite a bit of cloud around, a bit of mistiness, as well, and some rain on the way. quite heavy and persistent rain moving across through this morning. gradually clearing. this afternoon, it turns showery. a few sunny spells and the wind picks up. temperatures fresher, as a result. a maximum of 19 celsius. overnight, any remaining showers clear. the wind drops.

we could see under the clear sky one or two mist patches by dawn on saturday. minimum temperature dropping down to 9 celsius. for saturday, you can see there are bright spells in the south—east first thing, but the cloud will gradually start to increase through the day. it will still be bright, there will still be sunny spells. it should stay dry through tomorrow, though with the thicker cloud later in the day, you mightjust get the odd spot of rain, but that's about it. temperatures tomorrow getting up to 21 celsius, so a degree or higher. a dry day for sunday. more sunshine around, but a bit of cloud in the afternoon. turning progressively more unstable into monday. some heavy showers around through then. but temperatures stay similar as we head into next week — high teens, low 20s. i'm back with the latest from the bbc london newsroom in half an hour. plenty more on our website at the usual address.

good morning, welcome to breakfast with charlie stayt and naga munchetty. our headlines today. 126 fines. the police investigation into downing street lockdown parties ends. now questions over how much detail sue gray's final report will include. eight new cities are named as part of the queen's platinum jubilee celebrations including stanley in the falkland islands and douglas on the isle of man. manchester remembers. this weekend marks five years since the arena bombing where 22 people lost their lives. we'll meet the family of one 15 year old victim she was larger than life. the world was made for olivia. she wanted to be a dancing and singing teacher. everton secure their premier league safety, but their win sparks another pitch invasion. they came from 2—0 down to beat crystal palace,

sparking wild celebrations, but the palace manager patrick viera is involved in an altercation with a fan. good morning. a cooler, breezy day today. rain around at times as well. all of the details for today and the weekend coming up shortly. it's friday 20th may. our main story. the police investigation into lockdown parties in downing street has ended, with a total of 126 fines for 83 people. borisjohnson has been told he faces no further police action, but questions remain over how much detail will be included in the final report by senior civil servant sue gray. our political correspondent david wallace—lockhart reports. 126 fines were issued by the metropolitan police for events in downing street and other government buildings. only one of those went to the prime minister. some say that's one too many, others say apologies have been made

and now it's time to move on. he didn't feel he was breaking any rules and certainly when i have been on the doorstep, some people do feel what he was fined for, perhaps the prime minister and the chancellor may have been a little hard done by. but even with that, he actually held his hands up and said, do you know what, i'm not going to argue about this, i'm going to take responsibility, i'm going to pay the fine, and i want to move on and actually talk about those issues that people are really worried about like the cost of living or what is happening in ukraine. for opposition mps, it's the overall number of fines that's most shocking. they believe change has to come from the top and the prime minister must go. he presided over a place of work and his own home where there were 126 fines. i think there was clearly a culture of lawbreaking, i think that number 10 downing st was the venue for parties during lockdown, and i think the culture came from the top. the police investigation may be done and dusted, but the partygate fallout isn't over.

senior civil servant sue grey is expected to issue her final report looking into these events next week. the bbc understands there has been a lively debate on which senior civil servants will be named in this. and a cross—party committee of mps is due to investigate whether or not boris johnson knowingly misled the commons. for now, there doesn't seem to be widespread rebellion in borisjohnson's party. tory calls for him to stand down are limited. he hopes to move on from this saga. staffing structures in number ten are being altered to try and enhance the support offered to the prime minister. but with reports and inquiries yet to come, we haven't heard the last of partygate. david wallace lockhart, bbc news. we're joined now by our political correspondent iain watson. good morning, ian. ithink we good morning, ian. i think we have had one or two. on this one, this is another marker because it is the official end of the police

investigation but there are more hurdles to come?— investigation but there are more hurdles to come? yes, the biggest immediate hurdle _ hurdles to come? yes, the biggest immediate hurdle is _ hurdles to come? yes, the biggest immediate hurdle is the _ hurdles to come? yes, the biggest| immediate hurdle is the publication of the full sue grey report, the senior civil servant to has been looking into partygate and i am told it could come very early next week. she will be talking to senior officials over the weekend that she intends to name in the report. there has been some pushback in downing street because during the police investigation, anyone who was fined was not named, so some people may now be publicly associated with some of these controversial gatherings during lockdown and therefore could be facing disciplinary action. i think it will be a relatively small number of people who will be officially named in the report. we already know that boris johnson himself was refined and he is clean —— he was fined and he is keen to draw a line under this. he will make a statement next week and downing street making clear he will not stand in the way of the publication

of the sue gray report. a cross—party mp group will be looking at allegations that boris johnson misled parliament when he claimed that rules were followed inside downing street. if he intentionally did that, that's usually a resigning matter so the committee will be looking at the evidence that sue grey gathered. it looks as though those who want to see the back of partygate those who want to see the back of pa rtygate still have those who want to see the back of partygate still have some weight before this is done and dusted. the new nuclear power station being built at hinkley point in somerset has been delayed by a year, and will now cost a further £3 billion. the operators edf cited the impact of the pandemic and supply chain issues for the delay, which will now see the site up and running injune 2027, at a cost of £26 billion. edf said there would be no cost impact to taxpayers. one of the most influential figures in washington — nancy pelosi — has warned that the us congress will not support a free—trade deal with the uk if post—brexit trading arrangements in northern ireland are scrapped.

the government intends to introduce legislation allowing it to amend customs regulations, to try to restore power sharing. however, the speaker of the us house of representatives said that removing the northern ireland protocol could undermine the peace process. there's anger over plans to use a former raf base in north yorkshire to house 1,500 asylum seekers. people living nearby have accused the home office of failing to properly consult them. residents from linton—on—ouse, near york, met civil servants at a parish council meeting last night to outline their concerns. the centre, expected to open at the end of the month, is designed to help end the government's reliance on hotels while asylum claims are being processed. people are really angry. as we keep saying, this is the wrong plan for asylum seekers and for the village. it's in the wrong place because it makes no sense for anybody. the only people who support this are the home office and it's the wrong process because there have been no planning permission applied for, there has been no consultation, there has been no looking at the issue with sewage.

so when the sewage system which is already overloaded tips over, it pumps raw effluent into the river ouse. so people downstream going to experience that because there will be more people here than were ever on the base. eight new cities are being created for the queen's platinum jubilee, with at least one in every uk nation and further afield as well. applicants had to show their cultural heritage and royal links, and for the first time this year, crown dependencies and overseas territories were allowed to apply. let's take a look at the list. in england, doncaster in south yorkshire, colchester in essex and milton keynes in buckinghamshire have all been named new cities. wrexham in north east wales. dunfermline in fife in scotland and bangor in county down, northern ireland are also to become cities. douglas on the isle of man has become the first crown dependency to win city status. almost 8,000 miles away

reflective of what we might see today, a bit of sun and a bit of cloud? yes, that's right, a bit of brightness breaking through the clouds today. a fairly grey sky out there for some of us but some early brightness around. it will be up and down through the course of the day. the cooler, breezy day that we have had at of late. we have some rain moving from the south—west of the northwest. both of these areas of rain tracking eastward through the day. some brighter skies across eastern scotland this morning, a bit of sunshine though it saw in bangor, but further south it is a cloudy and damp start. rain moving its way eastwards, sunbursts will be heavy for the likes of kent and sussex, could be the odd rumble of thunder in the west as well. some brighter

parts in england, but the cloud will be rolling in from the west in scotland. the area of rain in the east goes away and then brighter skies developing behind it. also a scattering of showers moving east through the day. temperatures between 13 and 19 degrees, the odd rumble of thunder if you catch a heavy shower. fairly hit and miss, a bit of late sunshine and that it is looking more quiet and dry. temperatures reasonably mild, and then the weekend, mixed picture, low pressure moving in will bring some rain for scotland and northern ireland. england and wales predominantly dry and it will be warbling up a little bit through the weekend with temperatures by a sunday for some of us up to 23 degrees. thank you.

nurseries in england say plans to allow staff to look after more children will not cut costs for parents. the government says it is considering changing the current rules in a bid to help lower the cost of childcare forfamilies, amid the growing cost of living crisis. our education editor branwen jeffreys reports. oh, thank you so much. ashley has four children, including her new baby. it's two—year—old reggie she worries about the most. he has extreme allergic reactions. ashley trusts the nursery to watch him carefully. you just kind of need to have someone else take the lead for a little bit. would you be happy with there being more children per adult? probably not, no. i mean, the severity of reggie, so, a normal child... you know, it's such a massive responsibility to just do that for reggie. and to have loads more children, i don't know, i think it's too much. i found one! you found one, well done! this nursery in nottingham

is facing rising bills. from wages to heating, everything is going up. and now they're looking after toddlers born in lockdown. a lot of nurseries say that coming out of the pandemic, they don't want to have more children for each member of staff. because they've missed out on so much. quite a lot of children are needing extra help with their social skills and with their speech and language. oh, thank you! more children are starting school a bit behind according to new research this week. and rachel the owner tells me even if the rules changed, they don't want staff looking after more children. the children at the moment that we've got more now, they need more support than ever getting up the development back to where it needs to be. we are seeing a rise in safeguarding needs. if anything, we need more adults to children at this time, not less. she worries it could mean

the money for government funded hours being frozen. itjust feels like, oh, we need to cut budgets somewhere, and early years is where that cut is going to be. in england, for two—year—olds, there has to be one member of staff per four children. many other countries, including scotland allow bigger numbers, and that's why the government says it will consult on changes. ministers say it could help bring down the cost of childcare. in you get. down the road on the edge of nottingham, parents rush to drop off. for working families with children under three, it can be a big bill. see you later, love you! we have got savannah in, and wejust about to put our baby in as well. and it's more than our mortgage. it's a really hard decision to go back to work after my second one. i feel for those that perhaps aren't in the luxury of having a flexible job, working from home and have to go out to work and can't afford to put their children in childcare. it's a big part of our outgoings.

and we have to juggle sending albert to nursery or going to work or stopping at home. and if we have a holiday or not. is that your chair? have some breakfast? for babies and toddlers up to two, it's one adult to three children. this is when the cost is greatest for parents. and childcare staff like hannah have their hands full. sometimes we have points where one child needs a nappy change, another child needs to go to bed, another child needs a bottle and doing all of those things all at the same time, can become so difficult and very overwhelming. so before they consult on plans for england, the government is looking at scotland, france and elsewhere with firm proposals expected in the coming months. branwenjeffries, bbc news, nottingham. we're joined now by neil leitch, chief executive of the early years alliance, and also by elaine sagar who runs the sunflower group of nurseries in manchester.

transport this morning — there's severe delays on the picadillly and district lines and minor delays on the bakerloo line. onto the weather with kate. good morning. there's quite a bit of cloud around, a bit of mistiness, as well, and some rain on the way. quite heavy and persistent rain moving across through this morning. gradually clearing. this afternoon, it turns showery. a few sunny spells and the wind picks up. temperatures fresher, as a result. a maximum of 19 celsius. overnight, any remaining showers clear. the wind drops. we could see under the clear sky one or two mist patches by dawn on saturday. minimum temperature dropping down to 9 celsius. for saturday, you can see there are bright spells in the south—east first thing, but the cloud will gradually start to increase through the day. it will still be bright, there will still be sunny spells. it should stay dry through tomorrow, though with the thicker cloud later in the day, you mightjust get the odd spot of rain, but that's about it. temperatures tomorrow getting up to 21 celsius, so a degree or higher.

a dry day for sunday. more sunshine around, but a bit of cloud in the afternoon. turning progressively more unstable into monday. some heavy showers around through then. but temperatures stay similar as we head into next week — high teens, low 20s. i'm back with the latest from the bbc london newsroom in an hour. plenty more on our website at the usual address. hello, this is breakfast with charlie stayt and naga munchetty. the met police has confirmed that 126 fines have been issued to 83 people for gatherings that took place at downing street during lockdown. the investigation has now closed — which means borisjohnson will face no further action. sue gray's report is expected to be published next week. we're joined now by the justice

secretary, dominic raab. the police investigation is over and a line has been drawn by them. under what they have done to assess what people have been doing for themselves at home. what do you think at this point in time? i welcome the conclusion of the met investigation. it was important for transparency and accountability. we await the sue gray report and the prime minister is clear it will be published as swiftly as possible. when we receive it the prime minister will go to the commons and take questions. i think he has been clear in relation to things that happened at number 10. mistakes were made and lessons have been learned and from the interim report until now, he has taken action to overhaul number 10, staff changes and the

like. and we are getting on while we await the final report, with the job, the government getting on with thejob ukraine, cost of living, fighting crime, which is why i have been touring the media studios this morning. i think as you said, quite rightly, your viewers will make their own minds up and overwhelmingly people want to see the government getting on with the job and particularly looking at things that concern them and making sure we have to focus on the cost of living. ila sure we have to focus on the cost of wm. ., ., ., , , ., living. no one would dispute that. i want to ask — living. no one would dispute that. i want to ask you _ living. no one would dispute that. i want to ask you as _ living. no one would dispute that. i want to ask you as deputy - living. no one would dispute that. i want to ask you as deputy prime i want to ask you as deputy prime minister on one quote from your prime minister, december the 1st, 2021, in the commons. you will be aware of this. all guidance was followed completely in number 10. and just to remind people, we know that the met police have confirmed 126 fines for people in downing

crime. you are thejustice secretary, you would have loved hearing about. that is in the week that we hear 126 fines for lawbreaking within government. this is hard to marry up. iitrui’ith lawbreaking within government. this is hard to marry up.— is hard to marry up. with respect, i disairee. is hard to marry up. with respect, i disagree- it — is hard to marry up. with respect, i disagree- it is _ is hard to marry up. with respect, i disagree. it is right _ is hard to marry up. with respect, i disagree. it is right there _ is hard to marry up. with respect, i disagree. it is right there is - disagree. it is right there is transparency. its, disagree. it is right there is transparency.— disagree. it is right there is trans-aren , ., , , transparency. a couple of things, is that... transparency. a couple of things, is that- -- did — transparency. a couple of things, is that... me he — transparency. a couple of things, is that... did he say _ transparency. a couple of things, is that... did he say let's _ transparency. a couple of things, is that... did he say let's focus i that... did he say let's focus on crime, crime, crime, in the week126 government officials are fined. first of all, i do not comment on discussions in cabinet but what i can tell you is that crime was on the agenda because people want to see as dealing with street crime. there is a big issue around violence against women. i can tell you in the last year alone, looking at what i am focusing on, we have seen a 67%

increase in convictions for rape. the conviction rate has gone up in a limited period of time has gone up which is crucially important. at the same time we deal with that it is right there is transparency and accountability on issues around gatherings in number 10. and i think probably viewers will be more disappointed if we were taking our eye off the ball of things like rape and other serious crimes. ideal with this, it is bread—and—butter in myjob. it is also right we have accountability and transparency from the met and sue gray. i5 accountability and transparency from the met and sue gray. is it accountability and transparency from the met and sue gray.— the met and sue gray. is it true there are _ the met and sue gray. is it true there are conversations - the met and sue gray. is it true there are conversations about i there are conversations about stopping names mentioned in the sue gray report? stopping names mentioned in the sue gra re iort? ., stopping names mentioned in the sue gra reiort? . ., , ., gray report? there are matters for who is identified. _ gray report? there are matters for who is identified. we _ gray report? there are matters for

we have a dynamic, healthy economy. we have unemployment at 3.7%, the lowest in 50 years, but you need an economy creating tax revenue so when it comes to windfall tax, the question is notjust the rate but how we encourage business activity that creates revenue that allows us to provide those areas of relief? only conservatives have a plan for that. i think the labour party plan is in disarray. you have to look at tax revenue as a whole the economy is driving. tax revenue as a whole the economy is drivinu. . ., ., , ., ~ tax revenue as a whole the economy is drivinu. . ., ., ~ it is time to talk to mike. i will take you through my evening. i am a crystal palace fan. being a south london girl. i saw the score at half—time. 2—0. fabulous. ithought, thatis half—time. 2—0. fabulous. ithought,

that is sorted, off to bed, early morning. dramatic turnaround. when clubs are in trouble sometimes they draw on some sort of fighting spirit and everton did that, they survive. and then after full—time. another incident. the latest involving crystal palace manager patrick vieira who appeared to be an altercation with a fan. we have the sheffield united captain billy sharp head—butted by a fan who is now us in jail. head—butted by a fan who is now us injail. on wednesday, nigel clough said incidents are a concern after a player was shoved. at northampton last night also. the swindon manager says a pitch invasion at port vale, during that, some players were verbally and physically abused. the english football league said it will consider measures over the summer to try to tackle this including potentially reducing crowd capacity.

if the fans misbehave. .. potentially reducing crowd capacity. if the fans misbehave... the latest incident at goodison park diverted attention away from celebrations. relief as everton secured their premier league survival in dramatic circumstances. they were 2—0 down to crystal palace at half time but the second half saw michael keane and then richarlison make it 2—2 and then dominic calvert—lewin secured the vital three points late on to spark celebrations — guaranteeing everton�*s stay in the premier league for next season. however, crystal palace manager patrick vieira was caught in the pitch invasion. he looked to be taunted by an everton supporter. the frenchman appeared to then kick out at the fan before being ushered away by other supporters. afterwards, he said he had nothing to say. so that result means it's one of burnley or leeds, who'll be relegated on the final day of the season. burnley were held to a i—all draw at aston villa. it all looked rosy when ashley barnes converted a first—half penalty. emi buendia got villa back in the game though and villa pushed for a winner in the second half, burnley keeper nick pope making several saves.

burnley move out of the relegation zone, with leeds now occupying that final spot. chelsea have all but secured third place, after a h draw with leicester at stamford bridge. james maddison put the visitors one up, before marcos alonso levelled for chelsea. thomas tuchel�*s side are three points above spurs, but with a far better goal difference. there was also a pitch invasion in the league two play—off semi—final last night, where the swindon town manager ben garner called for action to be taken by the football authorities, after their defeat to port vale. the match went to penalties, after it finished 2—2 on aggregate. vale won the shoot—out 6—5 to set up a meeting with mansfield in the final at wembley. afterwards, fans swarmed onto the pitch, and garner said his players were physically and verbally abused. that incident comes after a fan was jailed after running onto the pitch

and headbutting sheffield united's captain billy sharp at the end of their play—off defeat at nottingham forest's city ground on tuesday night. sharp was knocked to the ground and required four stitches for a cut on his lip. forest season ticket holder robert biggs, who's 30, pleaded guilty to assault and occasioning actual bodily harm and was jailed for 2h weeks. for the first time at a men's world cup, there will be female referees. france's stephanie frappart, rwanda's salima mukansanga and japan's yoshimi yamashita have been selected to take charge of games in qatar. there were also three female assistant referees on the list of officials released by fifa. rory mcilroy made a brilliant start at the us pga championship. he's got a one—shot lead in his bid to end an eight—year drought without a major. the four—time major champion had this shot on the 12th hole, set him up for four consecutive birdies on the back nine.

americans tom hogee, and will zalatoris are mcilroy�*s nearest challengers, on four—under. it was nice to get off to that good start and sort of keep it going. i feel like this course, it lets you be pretty aggressive off the tee if you want to be, so i hit quite a lot of drivers out there and took advantage of my length. and you know finish that off with some nice iron play, some nice putting. st helens are back at the top of the super league after a i2—10 victory over a warrington side that made them sweat. the home side got off the mark early with a try from gareth widdop, but the visitors had too much quality for the hosts to handle. as tries from alex walmsley and tommy makinson put warrington�*s chances of victoryjust out of reach. a joyous story regarding stockport county who i visited early this season. you could see the resurrection was happening. a good couple of years.

such a good story. the thing about stockport county is the fans. a lot of smaller clubs, they are so loyal. now they are back into the football league. there were joyous scenes at stockport country last weekend as the club finally sealed their return to the football league for the first time in more than a decade, but one avid fan couldn't be there to join the party. stephen foster has been following the team for more than 60 years but could not go to the match as he is receiving end—of—life hospice care. however, when the club saw pictures of him watching the game on social media, they organised a special surprise — as judy hobson reports. the thing is, i can't get up andjig. i can do this in the bed. that's about it, like, you know. for this stockport county fan, a dream come true. stephen foster watched

the weekend's game from his bed at st ann's hospice, cheering as they won the national league title. he has been a fan since 1958 and had the same seat at the ground for 50 years. i am just so sad that i've not been able to see personally, to be there. because i would have gone on the ground. i would have been there cheering. but when the club heard about stephen, they sprang a surprise and chairman steve belis paid a visit with the cup. by hell, it was heavy. but, yeah, dead chuffed. he said to me, "you're the first person outside the club to have handled the cup." you know, the first person. so i'm dead chuffed about that. i am proud of that.

stephen melts my heart. he is everything the football club is about. he has been watching it since 1958. but it's what we should do as a football club. for me, there are too many clubs where the trophy ends up stuck in some boardroom or display cabinet. it is not for that. it is for the fans and we believe the trophy should be out there. so to be able to bring it to stephen and let him to have the first touch outside the club was an honour, to be honest with you. and the smile on his face, it melted everybody's heart yesterday. his face was just - absolutely beaming. apparently he was talking about it all evening - to my colleagues and all night. he's talked about it all this morning. i but, yeah, it has really lifted his mood, so it is lovely to see. - a lovely thing for stockport county and steve to do. . just wonderful. to top it all, he has just turned 80 and, despite the birthday celebrations, he says nothing can beat holding the cup. it will go in my living memories. great, one of the great things. for me, one of the great things in life. a wonderful experience.

very, very surprised. thank you, stephen, for telling us the story. what a delightful result for him. stephen foster. here's sarah with a look at this morning's weather. good morning. the weather today a little mixed. a lot of cloud. some rain moving through. some sunshine between are rain. feeling and breezy. we have a waving front in the south bringing rain to central and south—east england. another weather front moving in from the north—west. we will see rain falling

over south—west england and into south wales which will track toward central and eastern parts. the showers in the northwest will push across northern ireland in western scotland this morning. sunshine in the east of scotland. sunshine developing between the showers as they move east. that bulk of rain clears away from the southeast this afternoon. sunny spells, scattered showers, and temperatures between 13 and i9. into the evening, late sunshine. some rain across north and eastern scotland. mostly dry as we head into the early hours of saturday with temperatures between 8-11. saturday with temperatures between 8—11. into the weekend, 8—ii. into the weekend, high—pressure to the south of the uk on saturday and low—pressure to the north. it means it will drive in a westerly breeze and trying to bring in weather fronts from the atlantic but with high pressure not far away,

a lot of dry weather on saturday. the best of the sunshine in central and eastern parts of england and perhaps scotland. some showers in northern ireland in western scotland. in much of the uk, dry, add a little than today. rolling through into sunday, the same setup. high pressure in the south, low in the north and weather fronts trying to move in from the north—west. heavier showers by sunday, particularly in northern and western scotland. some in northern ireland in western england and wales. in the midlands, centraland in western england and wales. in the midlands, central and southern england, it should be dry and sunny. typicallyjust the mid—teens in the north and north—west, up to 23 in the south. into next week, up and down. unsettled as we head through next week, but most of the showers

across parts of scotland and northern ireland. much of england and wales seeing dry weather and perhaps some showers. with temperatures in the high teens, low 20s at the weekend, it looks like it will turn fresher particularly through the first half of next week. britain's biggest ever lottery winners say their new found wealth will give them time to dream and share adventures with family and friends. joe and jess thwaite from gloucester scooped a cool from gloucester scooped plus 262,000. in last week's euromillions draw, with a single lucky dip ticket. simonjones has the details. i'd like too present, on behalf of camelot national lottery, i your oversized comedy cheque.

they have notjust won big, they are now the uk's biggest ever lottery winners. i still keep thinking i am going to fall out of bed and it's all going to be a dream. it really is like that. my mum keeps texting me saying, "are we alive?" but it is real and it wasn't long before the champagne was flowing. where do you start, though, spending all that money? friends and family are first on the list. everyone is struggling and if we can do stuff to help them. we absolutely will. we can't wait to share it with them. what the plan is, as i say, i'm really sorry that we are boring, but we don't know at the moment. joe and jess thwaite are now worth £181; million. that is richer than celebrities including boxer anthonyjoshua, who is recorded as having 115 million by the sunday times rich list. and the musician adele, who is said to have a fortune of 130 million.

the hair salon thatjess runs with her mum and sister in tewkesbury has been shut until next week, while this all sinks in and people in the town learn the news. she has won £181; million. my goodness me. how wonderful. oh, my goodness. yeah, i know her. she buys lunch in my shop, so hopefully she will keep buying lunch in my shop. the couple admit it was a hard decision to go public, but they did not want to keep secrets. will they keep playing the lottery, though? i think it's someone else's turn. yes, it is someone else's turn to have the luck. we will pass that on. but a new life beckons withjoe and jess having more to celebrate than any winners before. simon jones, bbc news. a lot of questions emerge, apart from the obvious discussions on what you would do. but practicalities. what is it like when you tell them. we're joined now by andy carter,

said guidance had been followed in downing street. we know now of course there were these parties and gatherings for which fines were issued. he has to be deliberately misleading parliament to put himself on a sticky wicket but that committee will be looking at all the evidence that sue grey has, so she will not be delivering the final word on partygate, it is not over yet. word on partygate, it is not over et. :. ~' , :, , word on partygate, it is not over et. :, ~ , :, , . the new nuclear power station being built at hinkley point in somerset has been delayed by a year, and will now cost a further £3 billion. the operators edf cited the impact of the pandemic and supply chain issues for the delay, which will now see the site up and running injune 2027, at a cost of £26 billion. edf said there would be no cost impact to taxpayers. one of the most influential figures in washington, nancy pelosi, she has warned that the us congress will not support a free—trade deal with the uk if post—brexit trading arrangements in northern ireland are scrapped. the government intends to introduce legislation allowing it to amend customs regulations, to try to restore power sharing. however, the speaker of the us house

been pivotal in this conflict so far. it has enabled the ukrainians to keep the russians, even forced them back in some areas, along with eddie brazil. it's clear as things stand ukraine doesn't have the means to force russia back indefinitely. —— along with their results. the us is keen to pledge its commitment to end their words allow ukraine to protect its sovereign rights. thank ou ve protect its sovereign rights. thank you very much- — protect its sovereign rights. thank you very much. let's _ protect its sovereign rights. thank you very much. let's have - protect its sovereign rights. thank you very much. let's have a - protect its sovereign rights. thank you very much. let's have a look l protect its sovereign rights. thank| you very much. let's have a look at the weather now. good morning. a bit of a cloudy and grey day out there for most of us today, and we will see rain at times as well. this is how we start in portsmouth this morning, some very rare cloud, you could glimpse that in southern england, it is an

bunkers once used by german soldiers, now patrolled by french police. people smugglers use these bunkers to hide passengers before channel crossings. these sprawling beaches have always been hard to defend. despite new uk equipment, including high—tech binoculars and drones, france says the lure of life in britain is too strong to be stopped by policing alone. so has the threat of resettlement in rwanda made any impact over the past five weeks? translation: i made any impact over the past five weeks? translation:— weeks? translation: i think it is too early to _ weeks? translation: i think it is too early to measure _ weeks? translation: i think it is too early to measure the - weeks? translation: i think it is too early to measure the impact. i too early to measure the impact. regardless of the announcement, i think smugglers will watch to see if this measure is aptly —— actually implemented. that might dissuade them and therefore migrants to try their luck in the uk.— their luck in the uk. smugglers is to tell their— their luck in the uk. smugglers is to tell their passengers, - their luck in the uk. smugglers is to tell their passengers, just - their luck in the uk. smugglers is to tell their passengers, just get | to tell their passengers, just get into the water and you are basically into the water and you are basically in the uk. the french authorities will not intervene unless you are in trouble, they said, and once you are

in british waters, the british coast guard will take you to the shore. but the government's new policy means that those crossing this channel now could end up in rwanda, not the uk. aid workers say the number of migrants in calais has fallen, but it's not clear how much of that is down to tough policing breaking up camps. one estimate put the number of those deterred by the resettlement policy at ten to 15%. no one in this camp wanted to speak on camera, but standing next to a generator as he charged his mobile phone, one man agreed to speak out of vision. :. :. phone, one man agreed to speak out of vision. :, ., :, , ., of vision. rwanda, nothing, you can't find _ of vision. rwanda, nothing, you can't find protection _ of vision. rwanda, nothing, you can't find protection in - of vision. rwanda, nothing, you can't find protection in rwanda. | some aid workers say migrants are waiting to see whether the uk follows through on its plans. the

charlie, thank you so much. the legacies are just so important of these people who died in that tragedy. and we are very lucky of this programme, we get to speak family members who are continuing to keep the memory of these victims alive. i'm delighted to say that i have a levy upon my grandfather steve talking to me, welcome, —— olivia's grandfather talking to me. we are going to talk about her love of music? . . we are going to talk about her love of music? , , :, , . ., of music? yes, she loved music and dance. i of music? yes, she loved music and dance- i also _ of music? yes, she loved music and dance. i also have _ of music? yes, she loved music and dance. i also have judas, _ of music? yes, she loved music and dance. i also have judas, my- dance. i also have judas, my colleague. — dance. i also have judas, my colleague, our— dance. i also have judas, my colleague, our north - dance. i also have judas, my colleague, our north of - dance. i also have judas, my. colleague, our north of england correspondent, we will —— judith. we will look into what happened five years ago this weekend. we spent some time with olivia's grandmother and steve to find out how liv's

trust is carrying on. on the half—past ten news, it was filtering through to say there had been an explosion at the arena. terror came to a teenage pop concert here in manchester last night. - i just went and picked andrew up and we went into manchester looking for her. there were children crying. just small children. they all have their ariana grande ears on. they asked for a current photo. we'd go to every checkpoint. we would give her date of birth. we were in the hotel. the staff were going in the toilets, "anyone called olivia here?" and it was just such a shock. people say the only way they can cope with it is to know that she had had such immense pleasure at watching an artist, that she'd be dancing and singing the songs.

that she had come out still singing them and not still singing them and not knowing a thing about it and the light went out. olivia was 15 when she was murdered, along with 21 others in manchester arena. she was larger than life. i mean, the world was made for olivia. she wanted to be a dancing and singing teacher. and that is why the focus of the charity has just been so important. it has. it's the reason to get up in the morning, isn't it? yeah. the charity they launched in their granddaughter�*s name is called liv's trust. it helps young people receive education in music and dance. people like jessica. you went to school with liv, didn't you? yeah, she was in the year below me. and, yeah, we did the talent shows together. which was really lovely. sorry, i'm really... the ripples of trauma from manchester's bomb have

touched so many lives. but liv's legacy is helping jess and others like her to live their dream. we've brought a visitor. because you've not seen each other very much because of the lockdown. one more surprise. support from liv's trust has paid for singing lessons from wendy, liv's own former teacher. olivia came to me for about two and a half years. we had a great relationship, great relationship. it hit hard. but the work that's come out of this, what steve and sharon... i tell you, nobody knows how wonderful they are unless you're very close to them. they are special people. more than that, more than that. injess's case, she is going to be able to live her dreams? i hope so. with a smile like that, she lights up every room she walks in.

like, i wouldn't be able to do what i'm doing today if it wasn't for both of you. and, yeah, just help me with all sorts of things, like my head shots for my auditions and did my teaching exam to be like a qualified dance teacher. well, olivia wanted to be a teacher, so... you know, you being a teacher is off our tick list. # share the joy. # share the joy! and this is another scheme where liv's legacy and her grandparents' love is helping to spread joy. well, this is encore fire choir. hello, everybody. what difference does the funding from liv's trust make? funding from liv's trust enables us to give these wonderful youngsters behind mejust the best opportunities at no cost to themselves, because we believe music should be about singing and enjoyment and enrichment, rather than about finance.

so thanks to liv's trust, we are able to do that for these children. shall we bring them out? shall we do it? you can show your appreciation. let's go and get them. wait there. a clap, get ready. cheering # a sound of hope # a sound of peace # a sound that celebrates . and speaks what we believe. just amazing, all of them. ijust so... it's just so lovely to see them grow up. # when we share a song. it helps enormously.

helps enormously. just take pleasure and pride in the achievements these pupils have done. yeah, we've so many, so many, so many special memories. all in liv's name? all in liv's name, yeah. she has achieved her dream in what we've achieved for her. and we like to think she would have been there for each one. and that's what she would have done. she would have been really proud of what we have achieved in her name. some reflections on olivia and the trust as well. steve, olivia's gram father is here, thank you for joining us, i know you are going to be contributing to the music we are hearing later in the programme as well. they will talk about that in a moment. i'm joined now by our north of england correspondent, judith moritz. it's five years on this weekend, you

there's minor delays on the picadillly and district lines. onto the weather now with kate. good morning. there's quite a bit of cloud around, a bit of mistiness, as well, and some rain on the way. quite heavy and persistent rain moving across through this morning. gradually clearing. this afternoon, it turns showery. a few sunny spells and the wind picks up. temperatures fresher, as a result. a maximum of 19 celsius. overnight, any remaining showers clear. the wind drops. we could see under the clear sky one or two mist patches by dawn on saturday. minimum temperature dropping down to 9 celsius. for saturday, you can see there are bright spells in the south—east first thing, but the cloud will gradually start to increase through the day. it will still be bright, there will still be sunny spells. it should stay dry through tomorrow, though with the thicker cloud later in the day, you mightjust get the odd spot of rain, but that's about it. temperatures tomorrow getting up to 21 celsius, so a degree or higher.

a dry day for sunday. more sunshine around, but a bit of cloud in the afternoon. turning progressively more unstable into monday. some heavy showers around through then. but temperatures stay similar as we head into next week — high teens, low 20s. i'm back with the latest from the bbc london newsroom in half an hour. plenty more on our website at the usual address. bye for now. hello, this is breakfast with charlie stayt and naga munchetty. petrol and diesel prices have hit new highs again this week also talking about electric cars. and access and chargers come into this. we have been talking about this. we have been talking about

this with dominic raab this morning. people know how much things are casting. when we talk about average prices, it does vary. where in the country you are, whether you go to a service station, supermarket. but because we have seen record high prices are top of other pressures, transport is a big one. forsome, of other pressures, transport is a big one. for some, there is no alternative, they have to use the car to get to work. good morning. a pretty empty forecourt here this morning but the cars, bikes and vans coming through to fill up might well have a bit of a shock. a litre of petrol will now set uk drivers back to the tune of an average £1.68. that record high — yes, another one — was set on wednesday. diesel is also up to £1.81 a litre. since the beginning of the year,

petrol has gone up by 22.5p a litre, diesel by 32 pence. the cost of filling an average tank of diesel is now not far off £100. drivers we spoke to yesterday were unsurprisingly angry about the prices — and were wondering where the 5 pence fuel duty cut announced by the chancellor in march had disappeared to. i used to fill my car within £70—80, now it's over 100, which is too much. i have to commute into work. i travel into work at 4:30am. i can't take the train, can't take the tube. so i have no choice. i ride a bike because it's cheaper, but it's still not cheap. every day going up. i don't know what this is. because the government said from every litre, 5p — where? the government cut fuel duty. have you noticed that cut at all? no. it's pretty much the same. it's gone up. it was low again a few weeks ago, now it's gone back up.

so now were suffering again. i'm asking people about petrol prices. scandalous. absolutely scandalous. scandalous! it's notjust drivers who are unimpressed. the government wrote to the trade body representing petrol retailers this week claiming the fuel duty cut had not been passed through to drivers in any visible or meaningful way. the competition and markets authority is going to take a closer look at what's going on. the retailers responded, saying they share concerns but that there are additional costs that need to be considered. they say they warned the government that a 5 pence fuel duty cut was not going to be enough to offset the costs of storage, delivery, payment card systems, electricity and the higher minimum wage. the rac told us there was another possible solution. the rac did say before the spring statement that a vat cut would be betterfor drivers,

because there is less that the retailers can do. because duty applies on the wholesale price of fuel. so there is that element where they can still increase their margins. it's a little bit harder when it's a vat cut and it probably would have been far more beneficial and made a big difference to drivers when they fill up at the pumps. and that is still an option for the chancellor and we urge him to look at that again. it does seem wrong that the government are benefiting. the higher the price goes, the more vat they take. that could be something for the chancellor to consider. another possible solution to avoid higher petrol costs is of course to switch to electric. however, new research out today suggests one in ten of these — public rapid charging points — are not working. iam i am guessing if that map was full

of charging points, people would be more inclined to make the switch but the infrastructure is not there. there are already 30,000 charge points of which around 5000 are rapid chargers which is growing over 40% a year. there is a lot of infrastructure but as more people switch to electric cars, they see the cost and environmental benefits, more charge points will be needed. if there are so many, why are people not making the switch in bigger numbers? 9, , 9, not making the switch in bigger numbers? :, , ., ., ,, numbers? people are making the switch. numbers? people are making the switch- 15% _ numbers? people are making the switch. 15% of _ numbers? people are making the switch. 15% of all _ numbers? people are making the switch. 1596 of all new _ numbers? people are making the switch. 1596 of all new cars - numbers? people are making the| switch. 1596 of all new cars bought switch. 15% of all new cars bought in 2022 have been pure electric cars which outstrips the sale of diesel cars. if you talk to people looking to go electric, you will find they say that their car is not arriving till november. the say that their car is not arriving till november.— say that their car is not arriving till november. , :, _,, , ., till november. the upfront cost is a deterrent. when _ till november. the upfront cost is a deterrent. when you _ till november. the upfront cost is a deterrent. when you drill— till november. the upfront cost is a deterrent. when you drill down i till november. the upfront cost is aj deterrent. when you drill down into the details, most electric car purchases are done through company

up and down with the weather at the moment with unsettled conditions, low pressure trying to move in but high pressure not far away. this is how it is looking in county down this morning. some sunshine but cloud moving in. most will see the cloud moving in. most will see the cloud rolling in through the morning. a cooler and more breezy day. rain at times but not a wash—out. more sunshine developing into the afternoon. this area in the south—east is producing persistent rain and showers moving in here from the north—west. this is the radar. initially rolled in across the south—west of england, heading up to the midlands and east anglia. heavy bursts in kent and sussex. in wales, sharp showers. northern ireland and western scotland, turning to showers. sunshine in the east of

scotland and perhaps northeast england and later this afternoon, sunshine in east anglia and the south—east. temperatures feeling cooler than recent days. more of a breeze around, so feeling fresher. this evening, showers persist across north—east england and eastern scotland but eventually they push away and most are left with fairly clear conditions. temperatures reasonably mild on saturday morning. into the weekend, a couple of things. high pressure to the south is trying to keep things settled. low pressure to the north and westerly winds trying to push in weather fronts from the atlantic. with high pressure not far away, a lot of dry weather on saturday. we should see brightness breaking through. in scotland and northern ireland, clouding over. and some showers. not as heavy as today. top

temperatures in the north 13—17 but up temperatures in the north 13—17 but up to 21 further south. on sunday, weather fronts try to push their way in. by sunday i think we could see heavy showers in the north and western scotland. —— of scotland. and into north wales. further south in england and wales, likely to be dry on sunday. it should feel quite warm in the sunshine. the temperatures climbing in the south—east. further north, the high in the mid teens on sunday. looking ahead, the weekend brings the mix. showers in the north and west but warming up in the south. early next week, some debate but it looks like the weather is turning unsettled. i think rain might be on its way through the first half of the week in the south.

if i were thinking about taking up a jet fighter today, where would the weather conditions most to be favourable? i would head to aberdeenshire. and you get good views from up there. can i come? let's do it. can we come? it is a single seater. sarah is not happy. the director said in my ear when i said where would be a good place in the uk, the director said above the cloud. on your own. tom cruise does fly a plane. he has a commercial passengerjet license and has a licence to fly jets. this film is everything to him. he

is in top gun the sequel. last night celebrities and royalty out in force at the uk premiere. our entertainment correspondent steffan powell was there too. when you're coming up with a checklist for your dream film premiere, you've probably got hollywood royalty, actual royalty, up—and—coming stars, a crowd that's keen for a good time, and something unexpected, like a fighterjet, on your list. safe to say that this one had the lot. good morning, aviators, this is your captain speaking. top gun maverick is an unashamed throwback to the 1980s, to those blockbuster films that made hollywood so popular. and what tom cruise and his team hope is that by taking inspiration from the past, they can save cinema's future. i'm always thinking about the big screen and that experience. and i know audiences want it. so it's beautiful that i think everyone is feeling it and enjoying this moment.

and knowing, you know. as i said, it is emotional. i'm talking to you with no mask and here we are. it's wonderful to be able to have this time. the sequel to 1986's top gun is bringing a hollywood icon back to our cinema screens. there's lots of nostalgia with some new yet familiar faces mixed in. well, the challenge is don't mess it up. you know, don't be the weak link. but i felt very taken care of in the hands of not only tom, whose excellence is in every frame of this film, but also jerry bruckheimer. i knew what i could bring to it and i was thrilled to be a part of it. i was definitely aware of the fact that it is a beloved movie and the fans have a lot of expectations. so it's definitely on my mind. it's also a very special movie in tom's career and jerry bruckheimer's career. i had a good time. so no pressure?

no pressure. the last few years have been devastating for the cinema industry. attendance figures plummeted due to covid. at the moment, down roughly 60% on their pre—pandemic levels. so creating buzz and anticipation is now key for films and film—makers. it is like you have a kitchen at home, right, and yet you like to go out and eat. so you have to have good food out there. we have to make good movies that people want to go see. and top gun is one of those movies. there is a light at the end of the tunnel with attendance figures starting to rise, so for people like tom cruise and jerry bruckheimer, this movie, with all its high—octane action, will help that trend continue and get bums back on cinema seats. i'm always looking at how i can push my artform to entertain in any way that i can. that's why any time when i went to travel for 36 years for top gun, people were asking in many different languages for top gun.

and i was like, how do i do a sequel? so i'm thinking, how do i do it, how do i make it relevant for today and something that also is hand—in—glove with the other one and that next chapter? so i do think about that, i think about it all the time. iamso i am so keen to see it. someone else keen to see it someone we spoke to yesterday. she is a massive fan of top gun. braydon's first female raf fighterjet pilot. she showed us around. i have to very carefully go up the stairs as i show you the tornado gr1b, which is the sea version, the maritime version, of the tornado we had. of the tornado gr1 we had.

and as i said, from raf lossiemouth, here is my office is the only way to look at it, that i spent many hours in. you can see there is a dummy ejection seat that you just heard on the piece we were listening to. you can see the control column, the instruments, and you can see how very small it is. if we move to the back, this is where your weapon systems operate and we would be sitting. because it is a two—crew aircraft. the tornado is like in pm. in fact, the wings sweep back to enable you to go faster. and you will see here this is a swept wing version of the tornado. so that isjo. at the end of the interview you said you would love to see the film. we reckon someone would get in touch and someone did.

they did. somebody was watching and contacted me on twitter and i have to say a huge thank you to alex and team from the film and tv charity, who were really involved with last night. it was amazing. who would have known... we think about fighter jet pilots being at the forefront but you forget about the team behind them and we think about the actors in top gun, but this charity looks after the wellbeing of people who enable those films to be made. that is important. — enable those films to be made. that is important, the _ enable those films to be made. that is important, the fundraiser was for those people. that you relied on for many years. but let's cut to the chase. you got to meet tom cruise. well, so as i was leaving. look, i have all the things here ready. as i was leaving with a massive grin on my face and my daughter was with me. i saw alex. i thought i must say
