0fficers delayed entering the robb elementary school for a0 minutes, despite multiple 911 calls from pupils inside. last night the annual conference of the gun lobby group the national rifle association took place in texas. it was addressed by the former us president donald trump, who called for more citizens to be armed. 0ur correspondent barbara plett usher has the story. just days ago, children cowered on the floor in this school as a killer stalking the classroom. some of them stealthily called 911, begging for police to come and save them. we now know there were up to 19 policeman in the hallway outside for nearly an hour before security forces finally stormed in. as students in other parts of the schools scrambled to escape, the commanding officer took time to organise an operation to tackle the gunmen, who he believed was focused on barricading himself in with the children, and no longer an active threat.

over gun restrictions. and they are besieging a higher power to help them. —— besieging. ——beseeching. we're joined now by journalist allysa tellez, who's been in uvalde since the shooting. allysa, what have people there been saying to you about this admission by the police? i'm sure you can imagine it was a very hard revelation to take for residents who were living there in uvalde, especially for those parents who went to the school when they heard about those shots fired calls, and were trying to get into the school. a lot of parents and community members were standing around when that press conference was taking place, listening in on what was being said, and i heard from other people, other journalists, that it was emotional
6:06 am
for everyone in the crowd, just finding out that more could have been done to help save those children and those two teachers. it was... it was very hard to listen to. : :, :, :, �* to. and i would imagine we don't know the full— to. and i would imagine we don't know the full details _ to. and i would imagine we don't know the full details of _ to. and i would imagine we don't know the full details of how - to. and i would imagine we don't| know the full details of how much to. and i would imagine we don't i know the full details of how much of a difference it would have made, had based on the classroom sooner about the levels of grief among the community anyway must be unbearable? yes, exactly. i had asked the director of the department of public service, asking him, you know, the fire chief from san antonio, which is where i report from, he had said that one of those kids died in the ambulance, that student was in the ambulance, that student was in the ambulance and died. so we asked him, you know, if they had gotten there sooner, if they had gone into the classrooms here, would have any of these kids survived? and he was not
6:07 am
able to give me an answer to that. at this time we are not sure how many students were pulled out of the classroom alive. find many students were pulled out of the classroom alive.— classroom alive. and we have 'ust seen classroom alive. and we have 'ust pictures fl classroom alive. and we have 'ust seen pictures offi classroom alive. and we have 'ust seen pictures of relatives �* classroom alive. and we have just. seen pictures of relatives gathering at the scene, presumably sharing their stories with one another? yes. their stories with one another? yes, i have their stories with one another? yes, i have been — their stories with one another? yes, i have been able _ their stories with one another? yes, i have been able to _ their stories with one another? yes, i have been able to listen _ their stories with one another? 193 i have been able to listen to some grieving families as well, i spoke to a grandmother who lost her granddaughter, her name was anne—marie, and she was very emotional when she went, she was praying over at the memorial that they have in front of the school, and she stood there for a while, just for five and she stood there for a while, just forfive or ten and she stood there for a while, just for five or ten minutes or so, just for five or ten minutes or so, just looking at the memorial and she came back and... it was very emotionaljust from her walk back. emotional just from her walk back. she emotionaljust from her walk back. she wanted people do not forget what happened here, and she wanted something to be done about it. she
6:08 am
was wailing and talking about how she will never be able to hold her granddaughter again, and how... she will never be able to hold her granddaughteragain, and how... you know, why would something like this happen to an innocent young girl, a girl who was happy—go—lucky, who didn't deserve something like this to happen. but again, just going back to the fact that she just wants something to be done about it, so that we don't forget about them, because what this community is going through isjust because what this community is going through is just unimaginable. because what this community is going through isjust unimaginable. and through is 'ust unimaginable. and when ou through isjust unimaginable. and when you say _ through isjust unimaginable. and when you say she wants something to be done about it, how much a family is engaging with the debate about gun control, the national rifle association conference went ahead— how has that been received? you know, i think _ how has that been received? you know, i think a _ how has that been received? you know, i think a lot _ how has that been received? tm. know, i think a lot of people are hesitant to really say what should be done, the gun—control debate in texas especially is a tricky one. some people are for gun—control,
6:09 am
others are against it. and so right now it is not something that people are really willing to talk about, just because it is such a part as an issue, only going as far as saying something should be done about it. lisa, with the latest from your valley, on cue time this morning. —— uvalde. thank you for your time this morning. ukrainian troops may soon be forced to retreat from the large eastern city of severodonetsk, according to a senior official in the region. the governor of the luhansk region says russian forces are in the city and a ukrainian retreat may be necessary to avoid becoming surrounded. 0ur correspondent joe inwood is in kyiv. joe, how close are we to seeing the fall of severodonetsk, and what would that mean to the ukrainian defence effort? so this is basically the last big city that the ukrainians hold on the
6:10 am
east bank of this crucial river, there is another cityjust next to it, and basically those two are the end of the luhansk reason, —— region, the governor, soon he will be a governor without anything to govern. 90% of his region has been taken by the russians and the russian backed separatists. what we are seeing now is just closing device on these last two towns. whether they can make a retreat is what they are trying to work out now. they are holding out, this is a big city, it is defensible, they have been defending it. to get a retreat from severodonetsk they would need to cross this river, which has been difficult, the russians lost an entire battalion doing this. but in general, across the donbas, the battle is going rush's way. president zelensky last night said they would hold this region but they need more rocket artillery. it is some thing the west
6:11 am
has been reluctant to give them so far, it has been discussed but nothing has arrived. so it really is looking difficult for the ukrainians in the east. easyjet is cancelling more than 200 flights over the next ten days — all of them from gatwick. the airline says a range of issues are to blame, including airport delays. the decision comes at the start of the half—term travel rush, which will place pressure on roads, railways and ports, as tim muffet reports. as the half term holidays began, so did the queues. in dover yesterday it wasn't just tourists waiting to board ferries, so too were liverpool fans on their way to deny�*s champions league final in paris. according to the national highways agency, queues on the m4 were largely down to the holiday getaway coinciding with an edge sharing concert in cardiff. the air travel, was expected to be the busiest weekend since the start of the pandemic. —— ed sheeran. long queues
6:12 am
were reported at a number of airports yesterday. easyjet has also announced it is cancelling around 2a flights a day between now and 6 june. flights that were due to depart from gatwick airport. it comes soon after a software failure forced the airline to cancel around 200 flights on thursday. the airline says this fresh wave of cancellations is not related to it problems, but a combination of issues including air traffic control restrictions, runway works and airport handling delays. easyjet has apologised to customers and says they will be able to rebook their flight, or receive a refund. the travel industry cut thousands of jobs during the pandemic, but as demand forflights has returned, there has been a struggle to reduce start —— produce staff, carry out safety checks and hire new workers quickly enough.
6:13 am

6:18 am
difference will be in the second half tomorrow. let's crack on and see what is happening today. high—pressure dominating at the moment, sitting to the north—west, and as you probably know by now, the wind in o'clock wise direction, wind is coming from the north. a fairly light wind at the moment but a cool source at any time of the year and that will make you feel cool on those exposed east coast. a few scattered showers in scotland in recent days, but could see a few showers running down through the east. west is best in terms of the sunshine and warmth today, as of 19 celsius. in the evening we will see a little more cloud developing and a few more organised showers moving steadily westwards. you can see this line of cloud across north—west england drifting down through the isle of wight into east wales as we go through the night, also some shower cloud across those exposed east coast as well. temperatures will hold up into high single
6:19 am
figures for the start of sunday morning, but it will get a little more breezy and again the wind direction coming from the north. the blue tones denoting slightly below average temperatures for the time of year, and that means it will be notably cooler. we are seeing potential for a few more sharper, frequent showers across england and wales as we go through the second half of the weekend. a little more unpredictable, the weather story tomorrow, and disappointing in terms of the feel of the weather. it will add just an impact to the story, and if you take a look at the feel of the weather, disappointing, 11 or 12 degrees along the east coast, maximum ofjust 15 for sunday. we haven't had those temperatures for quite some time so it could be a shock to the system i suspect. monday, the high drifts away and allows this low pressure to develop. we could see more organised spells of showery rain on monday, gradually as we go through the day perhaps those temperatures will start to
6:20 am
come up as we go through the week. monday, scattered showers, some of them quite heavy and widespread, and temperatures disappointing, 11 to 16. looking ahead through the middle part of the week, england and wales will get a little warmer, top temperatures of around 19 degrees as the wind directions brings back to the wind directions brings back to the south—west but we keep those showers going into the far north and west. more from me if you wanted a little later on. back to you two. how are you feeling about that. you are really pleased with the weather. all i am saying is not much we cannot see the shot outside the studios right now, but it was a lovely morning, not particularly warm, bright sunshine and very nice. the clouds are returning. it's time now for a look at this week's movie releases on the film review.
6:21 am
hello and a very warm welcome to the film review on bbc news. i'mjane hill, and taking us through this week's releases as ever is mark kerkmode. hi, mark. hello. we have quite the week. we have top gun maverick. i know that you've recently rewatched the original top gun film. this is the sequel. we have the bobs burgers movie, and i confess, i've never heard of bob's burgers before the movie. and we have between two worlds, a drama starring juliette binoche. top gun. we've already booked our tickets, you see. so, there's a lot riding on the next few minutes. ok, so, long—awaited sequel to the �*80s hit directed by tony scott, the original sequel is by joseph kaczynski. tom cruise, who appears to have been sleeping in a fridge because he hasn't changed at all since his original incarnation, maverick, still has that rebellious streak. he's out in the mojave desert testing jets. at the very beginning,
6:22 am
we see him doing mach ten against the advice of everybody eles. he gets called back to the top gun academy in order to teach a bunch of freshfaced new recruits how to fly, to do a very, very dangerous mission which will be arrayed under uranium enrichment plant, and only tom can teach them how. here's a clip. good morning, aviators. this is your captain speaking. welcome to basic fighting manoeuvres. as briefed, today's exercise is dog fighting, guns only, no missiles. we do not go below the hard deck of 5,000 feet. working as a team, you have to shoot me down, or else. or else what, sir? or else i shoot back. if i shoot either one of you down, you both lose. this guy needs an ego check. we'll see to that. so, let's say we put - some skin in the game. what do you have in mind? whoever gets shot down first has to do 200 push—ups. - guys, that's a lot of push—ups. they don't call it an exercise for nothing, sir. you've got yourself a deal, gentlemen.
6:23 am
flight's on. let's turn and burn! fanboy, you see him? nothing on the radar up ahead. he must be somewhere behind us. well, we're both chuckling. so, here's the thing. so, miles teller is rooster, who is the son of goose, about whose death, you know, maverick still feels responsible. so, there's a kind of personal thing going on there. but the thing that makes this work is, as you just saw in that clip, the flying sequences are just spectacular. i mean, they are really, really spectacular. i saw this in imax and i have no great love of the first top gun. i think if you see it again now, you go, really not quite as good as everyone remembers it being. it was quite thin when we rewatched it! very, very, very creaky. this absolutely delivers what you want from a popcorn blockbuster. the flying sequences are astonishing. also, the emotional beats of it —

they're manipulative as anything, but they work, and i was sitting in the cinema, against all my better judgement, going as a serious film critic and going, yes! i'm going to punch the air! i started crying at one point when there was this kind of emotional standoff between these two male characters who had an awful lot of stuff going on that they had to deal with, and even the sound of some the tunes, a great piece of use of won't get fooled again there. itjust works and no matter how much you try to resist it, itjust works and overwhelms you. the thing i really liked about it was cinemas have had a bad time the last few years. this is the kind of movie that reminds people why they get off the couch, why they go to the cinema, why they sit there, friday night, bring it on, it's really well done and no matter how much i tried not to be taken in by it, not to go, yeah, it's just manipulative stuff, yeah, it's really well done
6:25 am
manipulative stuff and it's really enjoyable — see it on the big screen. we are seeing it on the big screen, are we meant to reference the fact that tom cruise is allowed to do this at the age of nearly 60, but the women are not that old? i mean, there's a few problems around that, but... the one thing i would say is tom cruise does not look like any other person of his age i have ever seen. i mean, it's...he literally looks the same, and when they do the thing with topless beach sports and you go, how... how is that possible for you to look like that? i have no idea! whatever age he actually is, in this film, he's 28. well, it's going to be a fun weekend and that's what we all need. we all need some of that. moving onto the bobs burgers movie. so, this is the movie big—screen spin animated tv sitcom that i haven't seen. a family running the bobs burgers bar. the bank threatens foreclosure. there's a huge sinkhole that opens up in front of the burger bar,
6:26 am
so nobody can get into it. also, there's a murder mystery. i didn't know anything going into this. i thought it was going to be kids thing, you know, bob's burgers. it's much more in the mould of something like the simpsons. and it's really funny. there are great gags, there are great comedy songs and the burger bar is right next to the funeral home called it's your funeral, which tickled me enormously. it's a long gag about this slogan of which is "80 years of cheap thrills and almost no decapitations." and underneath all the silliness, this is a rather sweet story about overcoming your fears and bonding of families, sticking together, but it's a gag a minute and there is a fonziejoke that i don't think anyone under the age of 50 will get. i went in knowing nothing about it and i came out and i'm going to track it down because i really enjoyed the film and i knew nothing about it. oh, but that's fun, that's good recommendation. and a french film for number three. between two worlds. this is based on a nonfiction book.
6:27 am
a writer who went undercover in the cleaning industry to find out what things were like at the harsh end of the economic spectrum. over here it was published as the night cleaner. juliette binoche is marian, total at the back of her life in paris. they say, well, it's not just that you take it, it's that we want you to take it. and she discovers that even for a job that lonely, you really have to sell yourself. here's a clip.
6:28 am
so, firstly, what she learns is that she's been really snobby about working in the cleaning industry. she's been looking down at it. she realises it's very hard to get the job. secondly, she discovers just how hard thejob is, particularly when she starts working on the ferries, which are really, they are described as a commando operation. you have — the stamina involved is extraordinary. so, part of it is a film aboutjust how tough life is at the bottom of the economic spectrum in this particular circumstance. the other thing that's going on is she's lying to everybody. she's actually middle class. and she's gone in to find out and make visible the invisible. but she's lying to them about who she is. so there are two separate layers of the drama going on, and actually, i thought
6:29 am
that worked really well because on the one hand, you're seeing life, just how tough it is, particularly on the ferries. the timescales involved, the amount of work that has to be done. backbreaking work for minimum wage. but this whole other layer and the fact that she's being deceitful, that she is somehow almost spying on them and drawing them into her friendship circle and pretending that she's understanding what's going on. but she has a whole other life that she's going to go back to, she's going to write a book. i thought it was kind of really fascinating and what it shows you about the world. but also, a dramatic story about someone being deceptive about who they are. the theme and the tone very much puts you in the mind of loach's work. and i think some of the performers are, they're nonperforming. the whole thing has that smack of authenticity, and that's why i said
6:30 am
there is definitely a loach element to this, and it is eye—opening and it's heartbreaking at times. but the thing that i think gives it a mainstream edge is that there is also this slightly melodramatic contrivance of the story about her own deception and obviously, i love juliette binoche anyway. she plays this really well. it's interesting that she is playing a character that's playing a character, and there's a dual layer to the performance anyway. really interesting. and best out this week? you've seen the quiet girl. i loved it. it's beautiful, simple, gentle. gorgeous storytelling and often do i find myself saying this, but a remarkable performance by a very young actress. astonishing, and it's a directorial debut, it's so sure—footed. the comparison i made was the capturing of childhood
6:31 am
at that point, the cusp of childhood and adulthood and you keep thinking that the film is going to take a turn for the terrible. but it... i had a knot in my stomach for some of it. set in a rural ireland in the early �*80s. but very...so gently moving. another thing ifound about it was the more you think about it, the more powerful it becomes. it's kind of deceptively low—key when you watch it. but then it really, really sticks with you. i think it's wonderful, absolutely wonderful. it's one of the films of the year. and i can't believe was a debut. completely assured. absolutely assured. if you like you're in the hands of someone who understands cinema, understands storytelling, understands just how much information to give you so much as said without words and so is wonderful. dvd? theatrical reissue before the dvd, back in cinemas and the change of pace, get carter is back in cinemas.
6:32 am
a 4k restoration from the camera negatives and probably a lot of people have seen get carter on television. it's one of michael caine's defining roles, it's brilliantly directed by mike hodges. it is tough, uncompromising, made in 1971 and even to this day, it's got that gritty, cutting edge to it — everything about it pops and you forget sometimes just what an incredible screen presence michael caine is. the camera loves him, but he's got this thing where he is empathetic but dangerous at the same time and this is a story about somebody in which there is very little empathy and see it on the big screen. and you'll be on disk in a month or so. really interesting week. good week. i'm so glad you love the quiet girl. have a great week. we will see you next time. goodbye.
6:33 am
hello, this is breakfast with nina warhurst and charlie stayt. let's get to sport now — and john is in paris, which is hosting one of the biggest events in the football season — the champions league final between liverpool and real madrid.
6:34 am
john, it is said to be a corker. yes, here in paris, a very calm start to the morning, liverpool fans will be gathering later to see the bands on the stage to warm them up ahead of the game to come, 60,000 liverpool fans expected here and then very different again to what then very different again to what the atmosphere will be in the stud to france later on, hoping to see their side lift the trophy. —— the stade de france. how do you split these two? they came so close to winning the premier league title, pipped by manchester city. the biggest game in european club football, you want two sides that really fit the bill, and in the podium —— opposing siding real madrid you have that, a team that has won this trophy more times than any other and seemed to save their
6:35 am
best for the very biggest occasion. how do you split them when you consider that liverpool had their own special history with this tournament as well? liverpool's love affair with the european cup is stronger than ever. i think we will do it, i honestly think we will do it. t i think we will do it, i honestly think we will do it.— think we will do it. i would say re think we will do it. i would say pretty confident. _ think we will do it. i would say pretty confident. we - think we will do it. i would say pretty confident. we were - think we will do it. i would say - pretty confident. we were unlucky in the last one. — pretty confident. we were unlucky in the last one, but _ pretty confident. we were unlucky in the last one, but this _ pretty confident. we were unlucky in the last one, but this one _ pretty confident. we were unlucky in the last one, but this one is - pretty confident. we were unlucky in the last one, but this one is ours. i the last one, but this one is ours. it the last one, but this one is ours. it is _ the last one, but this one is ours. it is a _ the last one, but this one is ours. it is a third — the last one, but this one is ours. it is a third final— the last one, but this one is ours. it is a third final in _ the last one, but this one is ours. it is a third final in five _ the last one, but this one is ours. it is a third final in five seasons, i it is a third final in five seasons, victory over villa real pitting the serial contenders against familiar foes. 0ver serial contenders against familiar foes. over 40 years ago alan kennedy scored the only goal in liverpool's victory against real madrid, as they lifted the trophy for the third time in the club does make history. this team could — in the club does make history. this team could be _ in the club does make history. “tt 3 team could be classed as one of the greatest ever liverpool teams, and i will be shouting for them and i will be willing anybody, and i hope it is

with the club, look at when i went from 2015 when he arrived today in terms of how big even the club is, how strong the squad and the first 11 years, it is incredible the job he has done, and i really hope he stays for as long as possible. talk us through _ stays for as long as possible. talk us through what _ stays for as long as possible. talk us through what the atmosphere will be like in the stadium, we know liverpool, around 20,000 tickets allocated, you can club a little frustrated, the fans are getting more of those. what will the occasion be like inside the stade de france? taste occasion be like inside the stade de france? ~ : :. occasion be like inside the stade de france? 9 : :, , . occasion be like inside the stade de france? 9 : :, , : :, , france? we change the pitch two days auo, we france? we change the pitch two days ago. we had — france? we change the pitch two days ago. we had a — france? we change the pitch two days ago. we had a big _ france? we change the pitch two days ago, we had a big concert, _ france? we change the pitch two days ago, we had a big concert, with - france? we change the pitch two days ago, we had a big concert, with the i ago, we had a big concert, with the french band on the weekend, they had to change a pitch in the hurri, they looked 0k from training yesterday, the atmosphere is going to be great. i expect liverpool fans to be outnumbering, if you can say that, the real madrid ones, but i think people from here might read a little bit more for real madrid, because of one of the players who was born a few kilometres from here, but one of
6:40 am
the liverpool players also grew up just down the road. for the paris born and bred kids to have all their friends and family here, i think will be sensational atmosphere. this will be sensational atmosphere. as far as big games go we talk about the trophies liverpool have one, the two domestic trophies, a very different story when you are talking about the champions league. as far as games go you really can't get much bigger than this. the most successful— much bigger than this. the most successful manager _ much bigger than this. the most successful manager if _ much bigger than this. the most successful manager if he - much bigger than this. the most successful manager if he wins i much bigger than this. the most successful manager if he wins it| successful manager if he wins it tonight, it will be his fourth champions league. he has already won the five big leagues as manager, jurgen klopp, who has had good vinyls and bad vinyls in this competition, lost against real madrid with liverpool as well, so he wants this one to make it two out of four finals. wants this one to make it two out of fourfinals. it is incredible, and then on the page, mo salah, other players, the best striker in the world, may be the best player in the world, may be the best player in the world, may be the best we are in the world, may be the best we are in the world in mo salah, just incredible.

6:45 am
allocations giving to those liverpool fans just under 20,000, all of that will be forgotten, won't it, to some extent, if liverpool can get over the line later and when their third cup of the season. what a story that would be for liverpool and their fans. john lennon airport where we were early on, john was referencing that a few people were concerned because their flights were delayed, at that point we spoke to one of them that was flying out, the latest we have is that there have been a few delays but flights are going. we will keep an eye on it because i know it is a sensitive subject if you are trying to get out for a specific event. exactly. flight that was due to leave at 540 a.m. has been put back to seven o'clock. fingers crossed anybody trying to make their way to paris for the champions league final... we think dennis is going to be on his way to paris. we will talk

6:50 am
it feels like it was yesterday, but this 0lympic stadium was alive with the roars of the crowd, cheering on the athletes. time flies. and when you plan a site like this — indeed, when you spend all of that money — it's important to plan a legacy — how the place can be put to good use once the games have finished. and the park is still thriving with football, swimming, cycling and generallyjust being a nice place to come. and in a weird way, the same is true for olympic athletes who only usually get to compete at that level for the first part of their careers. take jessica ennis—hill, who gave us so many great moments — even winning gold in the 2012 heptathlon. yeah, and, infact, she ran the entire distance that we've just walked in 12.5 seconds while jumping over stuff. and her career still took more twists and turns after that with injuries, a remarkable return after her pregnancy to win at the world championships and then, taking silver in brazil. and since retiring from competitive sport, she, like the whole park,
6:51 am
is looking to the next thing. now, it's still connected to sport, as you'd expect, and it's also connected to women's health — specifically menstruation. periods aren't something that's always openly talked about and discussed even less in relation to exercise, butjessica's new app hopes to help women work out better around their cycle, so shiona mccallum's been to meet her to find out more. training hard in the gym, building strength and getting a sweat on. but what if you're on your period? 0ne occasion, i was at the junior european championships and i rememberjust running that 800 metres, thinking, "i'm trying to run for a gold medal here, "but i'm also very aware that i've just started my period." ijust rushed off the track and felt like i couldn't have — ijust didn't absorb that amazing, like, gold medal moment. jess ennis—hill was at the top of her sport. olympic and world champion

in the heptathlon, she had physios, dietitians and coaches looking at all aspects of her training programme, but nobody looked at when she was menstruating. i always remember it being an awkward conversation, so i had a male coach and it was predominantly a male environment and i remember, yeah, just having those small conversations of, you know, "i'm on my period" or "i'm a bit tired" or "i'm not feeling 100%" but never feeling fully confident about having that more open conversation about how i felt and how it was making me feel when i trained. but it's notjust athletes that this affects. women make choices about training around their periods all the time. sometimes, you want to rest and other times, you want to run. that's because we have different hormone levels
6:53 am
at different times of the month. 0ur menstruation cycle is split into four different phases. they are period, follicular, luteal and premenstrual. each phase is determined by the two main hormones, oestrogen and progesterone, which are at differing levels, depending on where in the cycle you are. using this information as a guide, jess decided the best way to get her message across to women who want to keep fit was an app. after a couple of months of inputting your period data, the algorithm begins to recognise what phase of the menstrual cycle you're in and gives you tailored fitness options from things like yoga to high—intensity workouts. so, you do roughly a minute of that and then we could go into some core, so can position yourselves on the mat. so, does your period affect your ability to exercise? well, the team atjennis thinks so, and it's something their users
6:54 am
are keen to know more about. as a 45—year—old woman, i knew very little about the way my body works and i decided to learn about that. it seems to still be a taboo to talk about periods and menopause and things like that and i think that's changing, and i want to be part of that. perhaps we don't know as much about our bodies as we should, but the area is still extremely under—researched and the academic studies which have been done may not be reliable. 42% of the research was actually low quality, so what we do have, the majority of it was kind of low quality in terms of they weren't really looking at the menstrual cycle hormones in the way that they should in terms of blood sampling and those gold standard methods, so kind of not only do we have a research gap, but we have this quality issue as well. so, moving forward, not only do we need to increase the kind of quantity of research we're getting, but we also need to make it better, so we can get to those sort of more
6:55 am
accurate conclusions on female physiology. there are a lot of more popular apps available, like fitrwoman, flo and clue, so women now have more tech at their disposal than jess ever had. i think there's often that misconception that because i'm at the forefront of it, that it's all about elite training and that kind of higher level of moving your body. where, actually, it's not about that at all. it's about every woman having the opportunity to just tap into their rhythm. do you think you would have been a better athlete had you trained in accordance with your periods? it's a really good question. i think that i would've been able to train smarter. i think that when you get to a certain level, everything, every small, incremental change is hugely important. and i think that maybe if i would've spent more time understanding particularly when to push myself in the strength room, for example, in that follicular phase, then perhaps i would've, you know, built more lean muscle and become stronger
6:56 am
and, who knows, that may have affected my performance in a positive way. now, spencer, what can you tell me about dogs's noses? um...they are wet. that's true. they're also unique. so, you know how in some parts of the world, dogs are microchipped in case someone loses their dog? yes. well, here's another idea. chris fox has been to norway to find out about it. we've always had a nose for a good pet tech story, so when i found a company developing phone—based face id for dogs, i knewjust where to come to test it out — somewhere with lots of dogs. until now, the usual way we identify dogs is with microchipping — in some countries, it's even the law — but a company from south korea has developed an app that can identify dogs a little less invasively.
6:57 am
all right then! yup! on this phone, i've got petnow, which is using the dog's nose print to identify the dog. just like you can use a fingerprint with a human to identify them, a dog's nose print is very similar as well. so, let's get to know this dog. come here! whoop! it turns out it's actually quite hard to get huskies to sit still for any length of time, especially when you're trying to scan their nose. show me your nose! it takes the phone a few seconds to take pictures of the dog's nose and analyse them in the cloud. it also saves the pictures it takes to the phone's camera roll, so you can enjoy them later. in the end, with a bit of help from professional husky musher nicholas, i was able to get a successful scan. ah, yes, it's found it. 0k, and the app is now
6:58 am
telling me that this is emma — and not only that, it's showing me that emma has been reported as missing, and it's telling me where she was reported missing, and i can share my location with the owner, so they can be reunited. 0bviously, emma is not really a lost dog — the huskies had been logged in the app so we could see if it can tell them apart. unlike a microchip, which could be cut out of a stolen dog, you can't really remove a dog's nose — not without spoiling the dog — and by using the phone's camera to scan, anyone, in theory, can check a stray dog without any specialist equipment. back at base, i spoke to petnow to find out why they'd settled on nose prints for dog recognition. there may be paws or ears or iris, but some dogs really hate showing their paws or their ears. but the nose is exposed all the time, and after a dog becomes six months old, the nose print stays
6:59 am
their entire life, so we believe that it is the best part for identification. what inspired you to make a nose print recognition app? in south korea, the number of dogs and cats which are lost or abandoned are also increasing. the vet bills are not standardised in south korea, and some owners are simply not willing to pay the, like, high bills when their dogs or cats become really sick. some of them choose to abandon them on the street. so, we wish to build up a world without lost or abandoned animals. some kennel clubs already use dog nose prints as a form of id, but petnow hopes its app will become mandatory in south korea to help reduce the number of dogs that are abandoned by pet owners when a big vet's bill arrives. to do that, they'll need the backing of government and a huge marketing push, so that everybody,
7:00 am
including people who don't own a dog, knows about the app and how to use it. that was chris. he's always good at sniffing out a story, isn't he? i did ask her not to do that, i promise. listen, let's leave it there for the short version, shall we? if you'd like to see more from us, you can find it on iplayer, where the full—length version of click is waiting for you right now. thank you very much for watching. bye— bye.

7:03 am
story. the weather story. it's saturday 28 may. our main story. the families of those killed in tuesday's mass shooting at a primary school in texas have expressed outrage at the police response, after authorities admitted they waited too long to storm the classroom. 0fficers waited in a hallway of the robb elementary school for 40 minutes, despite multiple 911 calls from pupils inside. last night the annual conference of the gun lobby group the national rifle association took place in texas. it was addressed by the former us president donald trump, who called for more citizens to be armed. 0ur correspondent barbara plett usher has the story. just days ago, children cowered on the floor in this school as a killer stalked their classroom. some of them stealthily called 911, begging for police to come and save them. we now know there were up to 19 policeman in the hallway outside for nearly an hour before security forces finally stormed in.
7:04 am
as students in other parts of the schools scrambled to escape, the commanding officer took time to organise an operation to tackle the gunman, who he believed was focused on barricading himself in with the children, and no longer an active threat. from the benefit of hindsight, where i'm sitting now, of course, it was not the right decision — it was the wrong decision, period. there is no — no excuse for that. but again, i wasn't there, but i am just telling you, from what we know, we believe there should have been an entry as soon as we can. hey, when there's an active shooter, the rules change. distraught parents confronted police outside the school on the day of the attack, demanding they act quickly. since then, pressure on the authorities has grown to explain why they didn't. the verdict was blunt and damning. perhaps officials were hoping that admitting mistakes would help to calm the anger here, but there is a lot of frustration and emotions are running high. this man heard the gunshots from a distance. he found out later they had killed his great—granddaughter.
7:05 am
where was that police that was supposed to be there to protect those kids. where was he? first they said he was there, he confront the shooter, then now they are retracting and saying they are not. i have been watching tv all day, and i watched it at night until 12 o'clock, wondering why, why, why? that's all i can tell you. the revelations have embarrassed the state governor, who had been defending the police response. the information i was given turned out, in part, to be inaccurate. and i am absolutely livid about that. he had cancelled his attendance at the convention of the national rifle association, taking place this year in texas, but still holds to its stance that gun control laws are not the answer to the scourge of mass shootings. the former president donald trump was there to amplify that message. the existence of evil in our world is not a reason to disarm law—abiding citizens who know how to use their weapon and can protect a lot of people.
7:06 am
the existence of evil is one of the very best reasons to arm law—abiding citizens. many here say something has to be done, but are reluctant to enter the bitter partisan debate over gun restrictions. speaks spanish. and they are beseeching a higher power to help them. earlier, we spoke to journalist allysa tellez who's been speaking to relatives of the victims. i spoke to a grandmother who lost her granddaughter, her name was anne—marie, and she was very emotional when she went, she was praying over at the memorial that they have in front of the school, and she stood there for a while, just for five or ten minutes or so,
7:07 am
just looking at the memorial and she came back and... it was very emotional just from her walk back. she wanted people to not forget what happened here, and she wanted something to be done about it. she was wailing and talking about how she will never be able to hold her granddaughter again, and how... you know, why would something like this happen to an innocent young girl, a girl who was happy—go—lucky, who didn't deserve something like this to happen. but again, just going back to the fact that she just wants something to be done about it, so that we don't forget about them, because what this community is going through is just unimaginable. the prime minister is facing continued criticism from some of his own mps in the wake of sue gray's report on lockdown parties in downing street.
7:08 am
0ur political correspondent charlotte rose can tell us more. charlotte, several mp and even ministers spoke out yesterday — what are they saying? there are rumblings from some conservative mps? this there are rumblings from some conservative mps?— there are rumblings from some conservative mps? this has been a hue conservative mps? this has been a huge surge — conservative mps? this has been a huge surge of _ conservative mps? this has been a huge surge of criticism _ conservative mps? this has been a huge surge of criticism following i huge surge of criticism following the sue gray report, there has been a trickle of conservative mps they may no longer have confidence in the minister. last night there mp for rutland encoding issued a statement on social media where she said the prime minister was" complicit, and showed a complete disregard for the restrictions". she goes on to say "i can only conclude that the prime minister in his account of events the parliament was misleading." that is a very serious allegation because any minister who is found to have misled parliament scandal has
7:09 am
"brought my party and the government into disrepute", and she says that since january she has not had confidence in the prime minister and that position remains unchanged. but she didn't confirm whether she has submitted a formal letter of no confidence in borisjohnson, of course we would need to see 50 such letters in order to trigger a vote in his leadership. we did yesterday here from the senior conservative so bob neil, saying that he had submitted a letter, a junior minister also resigned from the government. last night the treasury minister good john glenn told the bbc that he believed borisjohnson is now in yellow card territory. charlotte, thank you. easyjet is cancelling more than 200 flights over the next 10 days, all of them from gatwick. the airline says a range of issues are to blame, including airport delays. the decision comes at the start of the half—term travel rush, which will place pressure on roads, railways and ports, as tim muffet reports. as the half—term holidays began, so did the queues.
7:10 am
in dover yesterday, it wasn'tjust tourists waiting to board ferries, so too were liverpool fans on their way to tonight's champions league final in paris. according to the national highways agency, queues on the m4 were largely down to the holiday getaway coinciding with an ed sheeran concert in cardiff. forairtravel, its expected to be the busiest weekend since the start of the pandemic. long queues were reported at a number of airports yesterday. easyjet has also announced it is cancelling around 24 flights a day between now and 6june. flights that were due to depart from gatwick airport. it comes soon after a software failure forced the airline to cancel around 200 flights on thursday. the airline says this fresh wave of cancellations is not related to it problems, but a combination of issues including air traffic control restrictions, runway works and airport handling delays.
7:11 am
easyjet has apologised to customers and says they will be able to rebook their flight, or receive a refund. the travel industry cut thousands ofjobs during the pandemic, but as demand for flights has returned, there has been a struggle to recruit staff, carry out security checks and train new workers quickly enough. tim muffett, bbc news. among the many trips taking place this weekend will be thousands of liverpool fans making their way to paris for the champions league final against real madrid tonight. we say making their merry way, but is it? matt graveling is at liverpooljohn lennon airport. you have been checking to make sure, first in the atmosphere, but also is everything working in terms of the flight? bring us up—to—date. goad

7:18 am
will be around first thing on sunday morning. temperatures hovering around six to nine degrees. sunday could start with more cloud, the breezes starting to pick up and it will start to feel notably cooler as well. the wind direction could have quite an impact on the story as we go through the day on sunday. the risk of some sharper showers around, more frequent showers for most of us, and certainly cooler along those exposed east coast. the temperatures will be pretty subdued on sunday, below par for the time of year. a maximum on sunday of ten to 15 degrees. back to you two. for most of us, catching a ferry is something we might do once or twice a year, usually for a holiday or a leisure trip. but for those who live on the islands off the west coast of scotland, ferries are a lifeline. they certainly are. in recent years, they've been plagued by cancellations and delays thanks, in large part, to an ageing fleet. our scotland editorjames cook went to find out more.
7:19 am
for the 5000 inhabitants of the aisle of adam, this ferry is a lifeline. it brings tourists, goods and relatives to the island and it carries islanders across the firth of clyde to shops, hospitals and weddings on the mainland. there is a problem. the fleet is ageing. this ferry is nearly 30 years old, a new one is years later and millions over budget. delays and cancellations on the waves have a direct impact here on land. ., , ., , the waves have a direct impact here on land. ., , .,, ,, the waves have a direct impact here onland. ., , i, on land. lovely to see you guys. claire knows _ on land. lovely to see you guys. claire knows only _ on land. lovely to see you guys. claire knows only too _ on land. lovely to see you guys. claire knows only too well. - on land. lovely to see you guys. claire knows only too well. how| claire knows only too well. how important our ferries to you as a business?— business? critical, they bring us --eole, business? critical, they bring us peeple. they — business? critical, they bring us people, they allow _ business? critical, they bring us people, they allow our - business? critical, they bring us people, they allow our products| business? critical, they bring us i people, they allow our products to be put on shelves. we stopped as much local as possible, but

norwegian option bigger fleet of smaller ferries? eriléi norwegian option is bigger fleet of smaller ferries? "tt9 norwegian option is a bigger fleet of smaller ferries? tt9 norwegian option is a good model, lots of similarities, lots of scattered island communities. they are fairly well served. generally, they operate a system of mall smaller vessels. so what that gives you is you can have more frequency of service, reliability, so if you have a problem with one boat, there will always be problems, but if you have a problem with one boat, you have a problem with one boat, you have more redundancy in the system. the problem runs deeper than two vessels which are late and over budget. the whole fleet is actually ageing, it is creaking, and that leads to breakdowns, delays and cancellations, which of course has a big effect on the island communities which depend on the ferries. bad weather and a rise in passengers that also cause problems. but most of all, islanders tell us, they want new ferries now. james cook, bbc news, on arran.

7:33 am
them tomorrow. they have to beat huddersfield in the championship play—off at wembley, a great event, and even arguably a greater event taking place tonight in paris. john is there for us this morning, in the sun, all of those football fans heading out there, it will be a great occasion. it doesn't get much bigger, the champions league final, the biggest game in european club football. good morning from paris, we are here on the side of the canal, a short walk from where a lot of the fans will be gathering later on, they will be gearing up for the big game and then it is the stade de france behind me, in front of me, whether liverpool fans will be packing into the stadium alongside those real madrid fans in the hope of watching their side lift the title. and what season it has been believable when you they have been battling silverware on
7:34 am
four fronts. have been battling silverware on fourfronts. an incredibly hard thing to do, and this beautiful setting matches the football they play. and it is more than that for liverpool, it is full throttle football, the scene built in the shape of their managerjurgen klopp, who brings all that energy, passion and enthusiasm and we will see that on full show as he stands on the sidelines a little later on. real madrid, what a team when you consider that nobody has won the european cup more times than them, they seem to produce the very best for the bigger stage of football and when you have a game with decide you want two teams that really will match, two teams that fit the bill and you have them in real madrid and liverpool, two sides with a fantastic european pedigree. how do you split them? we have been finding out. liverpool's love affair with the european cup is stronger than ever. i think we will do it, i honestly think we will do it. we'll concede, but i fancy mo to put in a performance.
7:35 am
i'd say pretty confident. we were unlucky in the last one against madrid, but i reckon this one is ours. it is a third final in five seasons, victory over villarreal pitting the serial contenders against familiar foes. 0ver a0 years ago, alan kennedy scored the only goal in liverpool's victory against real madrid, as they lifted the trophy for the third time in the club's history. this team could be classed as one of the greatest ever liverpool teams, and i will be shouting for them, and i will be willing anybody, and i hope it's the left back, to score a goal. madrid's own association with this competition borders on obsession. four years ago they won a record 13th title in spectacular style. liverpool the losers this time in kyiv. tonight's final was due to be played in saint petersburg, but was moved here to the stade de france in paris following russia's invasion of ukraine.
7:36 am
just under 20,000 tickets have been allocated to liverpool and their fans, who will be packing in here later hoping to see their side cap off a remarkable campaign. we are not here by surprise or we got a ticket, or something like that, we deserved it as well. and so being us, on the highest level, would be cool. having reached the final of every cup competition and taken the premier league title to the final day, many are calling this one of the greatest liverpool sides in history. victory later, in this, one of the biggest games of all, it might be hard to disagree. excited? we excited ? we certainly excited? we certainly are. chris sutton is with me, and spanish footballjournals guillame balligay. football journals guillame balligay. the footballjournals guillame balligay. the real madrid players were on the

7:40 am
they were saying, we don't know how to prepare these games because there is no pattern to what they do, you don't know where it is going to come because real madrid, it is a player, a move, a moment. and if they manage to congeal that, which they did a bunch of times, then they win. but they won't dominate, if liverpool lose it will be like, how could they lose, because they were superior. it feels like that kind of game is coming up. but if liverpool lose it will be because they found that moment that move, that player. generally. moment that move, that player. generall . : , ., moment that move, that player. generally-— moment that move, that player. generall. : ~' 9, generally. and you know them, you seak to generally. and you know them, you speak to these _ generally. and you know them, you speak to these players _ generally. and you know them, you speak to these players a _ generally. and you know them, you speak to these players a lot, - generally. and you know them, you speak to these players a lot, you i speak to these players a lot, you know these stars in that real madrid dressing room. give us a sense of the personalities in there. benson, we knew he — the personalities in there. benson, we knew he was _ the personalities in there. benson, we knew he was a _ we knew he was a talented player, when you he could score goals, we didn't know he had this leadership in him. but from the moment that christiana rinaldo goes, there's this gap that happens when these big

personalities go, and it is like, i will fill it in. and ancelotti who had him in 2014, when they won the championship, is it the same guy? because now he takes over, he wouldn't do it by being a big personality, butjust by the way he plays, the way he runs off everyone, he was caught on camera saying" don't pass the ball to him..." to his own teammate! that was sought that was just like that was caught on camera. what i am trying to say is that you have to give me the ball, you have to make moves, and they grew from that relationship into one of the most exciting partnerships. 44 goals this season. for me it is... you are keeping liverpool to do this. chris, you are feeling the same?— feeling the same? absolutely. i think ou feeling the same? absolutely. i think you make _ feeling the same? absolutely. i think you make the _ feeling the same? absolutely. i think you make the point - feeling the same? absolutely. i think you make the point that i feeling the same? absolutely. i i think you make the point that real madrid _ think you make the point that real madrid have found a way of getting to this _ madrid have found a way of getting to this final, they haven't played

7:43 am
last wanted back in the 19505, so will today be there day? in this corner of the capital it all still feels rather new. rugby league's grandest occasion coming for tottenham for one year only. a stadium built for the future, ready to become part of the history. commentator: that must be one of the all-time great _ tries at wembley. .. in 125 years of the challenge cup, no team has been as successful as wigan. a generation ago the cherry and whites claimed the famous old trophy as their own, eight straight victories... that is one sensational try! no—one could lay a finger on them. we think about it a lot, we talk about it a lot as a group, and we believe we can learn a lot from the team and the players that have gone before us. the players know they have an opportunity now, which they've earned, to write their own little piece in the story of the club. of late the cup has proved more elusive. almost a decade since
7:44 am
wigan's last victory. the fans who turned out to wave off the team this week, they know just what a win would mean. what a day, i am getting goose bumps now. excited, nervous but excited because anything can happen ina final. we've got it, definitely. we will be there, won't we, shouting wigan! i wigan! if wigan's road back to challenge cup glory has been long, it is nothing compared to huddersfield's wait. nearly 70 years since they last lifted the cup, success feels long overdue for somewhere with its own unique place in the sport's history. the town's rugby league heritage goes back to the very start — behind these scaffolding and hoardings was the george hotel where in 1895, clubs from across the north met to vote to break away from their southern cousins. the sport of rugby league was born. but like the hotel, the huddersfield giants are desperate for a return to former glory. club legend earl crabtree was twice
7:45 am
on the losing side in a cup final. this is the pinnacle of your career, to win one of these major trophies, the challenge cup, with the history that it has, is elite. what a great chance for the huddersfield giants to get that trophy, back to the birthplace of rugby league, it isjust what the town and the game needs as well. some are already calling this the tottenham final — a new home, the same grandest stage. you love the emotion there from the fans, don't you? why not? as a supporter of your club, you can go a whole lifetime and you can never get the chance to see your club and the biggest ones of all of the biggest stage, but that is happening today just as it is for the liverpool supporters who are heading out here. the players, they might not get the opportunity to play in these big occasions very often. liverpool are
7:46 am
making a habit, such as their quality, and you wonder how it will play out later. but there is some good news at the airport, those liverpool fans will be travelling out here. there were concerns their flights were cancelled but it looks like they will get here. you wouldn't want to miss a day like today, would you? today, would you ? it today, would you? it is lovely where you are. the calm before the storm in paris. you can see them setting off on their boats behind you. but we know it will be madness tonight, isn't it? it is, it is, yeah. it is a stark contrast. the serene setting that we have here in contrast to what you will see, the passion, the atmosphere, the energy where some of the fans will be gathering, and contrast to what we will see unfold in the stadium later. a big stage, the atmosphere and a huge occasion for all of those fans. see you later. thank you. always ma . ic, see you later. thank you. always magic. magical —
7:47 am
see you later. thank you. always magic, magical atmosphere i see you later. thank you. always magic, magical atmosphere at i magic, magical atmosphere at champions league final. here's louise with a look at the weather. is that from one of our viewers? yes, you don't need to go to paris for the glorious weather. look at this! many of us waking up to some blue sky and sunshine. if you heard us talking about it getting colder and you wonder what we're talking about, it is going to get colder, but you will not feel it probably until tomorrow. all courtesy of a high—pressure centre the high west allowing this northerly flow, but light winds today. only on those exposed east coast will feel the pressure and we will see more cloud around as well. a few scattered showers already in scotland, in comparison to the last few days, the showers are further and far between. better the sunshine, wales and england, that is where the warmth will be. temperatures peaking at 19, 20 degrees, at a to the east. overnight tonight, the winds will start to
7:48 am
pick up and that could drive in a few more showers, pushing westwards across northern england and into wales. we are likely to start off on sunday with some showers around, a cool start in places, single figures first thing on sunday morning as we go into the day on sunday. more cloud generally, the winds are fresher than we have seen of late, and that will drive in a few scattered showers as well. the temperatures are likely to be more subdued. this will be a shock to the system. we are looking at nine to 11 degrees in the far north—east, top trumpeters further south of only 15 celsius. never mind. —— top temperatures. that is all we can say, louise. never mind! a gallant shrug at the end. very peregian. —— —— parisien.
7:49 am
time now for newswatch with samira ahmed. hello and welcome to newswatch with me, samira ahmed. more bbc cuts mean the news channel and world news will merge. what will this mean for audiences? and what happens when some text being written for a training exercise accidentally makes it onto air. since sue gray's investigation into possible lockdown breaches at downing street was announced in december, politicians and the news media have been wondering what it would reveal. on wednesday, the wait was finally over. a failure of leadership and judgement at number 10 and in the cabinet office. the sue gray report into cabinet lockdown parties has just been published. the senior civil servant finds many of the events shouldn't have been allowed to go ahead. public reactions to the saga of lockdown gatherings in downing street have been deeply divided and so have those to the bbc�*s coverage of the affair. keith russell's reaction:
7:50 am
and sheron boyle had this observation about the media more widely. but the majority of correspondence to newswatch were damning about the role ofjournalists, specifically those from the bbc. julie baker's e—mail was typical. and kath roberts asked: sue gray's report certainly dominated much of wednesday's output on the news channel. with geeta guru—murthy positioned in downing street that afternoon, as she interviewed down the line the former head of the home civil service, lord kerslake.
7:51 am
as we've seen before on newswatch, those standing outside number 10 can get distracted in the middle of interviews. its conclusions are absolutely damning, in my view, and, for me, the issue was never about fines, it was about... lord kerslake, just to interrupt — ijust want to let everyone know that over my shoulder we can see the prime minister returning to downing street. he'sjust pulling up behind us at the moment. borisjohnson, should you not resign today? will you resign, prime minister? will you resign? _ borisjohnson obviouslyjust returning and not making any further comment. the presenter did apologise to her guest for interrupting the interview, but that didn't change the view of james little.
7:52 am
now, the government's decision injanuary to freeze the license fee for the next two years meant the bbc had an annual shortfall of £285 million. and we discovered on thursday what savings the corporation plans in order to plug the gap. they include the scrapping of the regional current affairs strand we are england, which was itself a replacement for the programme inside out. the domestic news channel and the international facing world news will merge into a single channel and some of the world service's foreign—language services will go online only. those plans were greeted with dismay by some viewers, with joanna writing that she's: meanwhile, brekkie posted this thought. and chris fone expressed concern over continuing erosion
7:53 am
to bbc output. well, with me now is the manager in charge of the news division, jonathan munro, who's the interim director of bbc news. thank you for coming on newswatch. so, on merging the news channels, surely uk licence fee payers expect and need a uk—focused news service. so, how do you do that if you're serving a world audience at the same time? yeah, we're really committed to making sure that licence fee payers get the service they need, covering the uk and the world. what we're doing, essentially, in these proposals is taking two separate news channels who already have quite a lot of shared output, particularly around certain times of the day or certain stories that are relevant to both audiences, and rather than have two channels which have shared output, we're going to reverse that and have one channel that has the ability to split apart, so that when there are stories that aren't relevant overseas but are very important for the uk audiences,
7:54 am
we will do exactly that. and that might be certain times of day, it might be around certain types of stories, so the quality and depth ofjournalism that we're delivering to the uk licence fee payer is absolutely baked in to the thinking here. we want to deliver the best of the bbc to the news channel audience. it's interesting to hear about the opt outs, but i would say viewers regularly complain to us. we had one wejust read out there, that the merged content they do get already at weekends and evenings, theyjust don't think it works. well, we're really proud of the fact that we can bring global coverage on a scale that no other news organisation has into the uk. that's a strength of the bbc, is the fact that we've got bureaus all over the world, colleagues working in all sorts of different environments reporting back in to the domestic audience. we do need to work harder to make those stories explicable to audiences that — at different times — are separate. and we've got some lessons, i'm sure, in how to do that. but overall, the principle of being proud of ourforeign coverage coming into the uk and proud of our uk coverage to overseas audiences is one we want to build on.
7:55 am
right, you've talked about digital first as part of these changes, prioritising online output, but many older viewers and listeners aren't digital and they're also the ones who tend to watch tv bulletins and the ones who tend pay their licence fees. yeah, there are some people, of course, who are really important members of the audience who are less digitally capable, less digitally equipped than others, of course that's the case. and it will be the case for a very long time to come. changing habits is a slow, but nonetheless, very, very entrenched pattern among audiences, and we need, as an organisation, to move some of our resources, not all of them, but some of them to those areas where audiences are growing. so, for example, if you take, this week, when rishi sunak, the chancellor, made announcements about money for heating bills, fuel bills in the uk, that story alone had more people going to our news website, about 10 million people in that single day, than the news channel would reach in the average week. so, when you see that that's the way that audiences are behaving, that gap is growing, not widening,
7:56 am
between digital consumption and what we call linear consumption — in other words, people sitting down, watching a traditional channel, it doesn't mean it's going away completely, but the gap is widening, so when we've got finite resources, as you've just referred to in your introduction, samira, we need to prioritise the areas where the audiences are growing. world service languages, part of this digital first policy, is going to see some of those world service language services go to online only, digital only, aren't you worried about losing a lot of global audiences by doing that — who aren't online? well, some of the language services are already digital only, in fact. so not all of them have what we call linear outputs right now, radio or television. so that journey will accelerate over the next few months and years. and that's because, again, that's where the audiences are moving. might there be a short—term loss in what we call reach, the number of people who are coming to ourjournalism? it's possible, if we get too far ahead of the market, but in the longer run, that's where the audiences are going be on a sustainable basis. and if we're not moving
7:57 am
into those markets, overseas and in the uk, we are actually then going to face long—term decline and that's the very thing we're trying to avoid. so, the director—general told the house of lords select committee earlier this week that bbc has lost 1,200 staff in about 18 months and he said that more would be leaving. at what point does it get too much to be able to sustain a proper news service? yeah, i think that's a really important balance that we've got to strike. we have to make sure that even if we've got to take costs out of the system, for all the reasons to do with our funding that you've mentioned, and, of course, serious inflation right now, so we do have to have a real cost control operation going on in the bbc, we're spending public money, after all, it's important for us to recognise that quality products, whether in news or elsewhere, requires a certain level of resilience and skills in the staff. actually, by converting the model of the news channel, we're actually making a little bit less output overall, so we're not stretching our staff to do more with fewer people, we're actually reducing the amount
7:58 am
of hours that we produce for example, television broadcast news. so, overall, that's a challenge that we really accept, we've really got to make sure that the quality and the skills behind the quality is delivered and, therefore, do a little bit less with fewer people. will there be managementjob cuts? i mean, you're going to be managing a lot fewer people after all. we're going to be managing a few fewer people. tim davie said overall, across the whole of the bbc, around a thousand, we've not said yet, because we don't know yet precisely where the divisions will be — x number of people in this area and y number of people in that area. that work is still under way. so, we don't know yet what grade or seniority those posts will be. jonathan munro, thank you. before we go, viewers of the news channel on tuesday morning might have had a surprise, if they were looking at the ticker, the banner at the bottom of the screen, which features scrolling news headlines or, in this case, something very different. after a slow start, he eased through in straight sets and is one step closer to reaching week two of a grand slam for the first time.
7:59 am
lydia campbell, bbc news. the defending champion, novak djokovic, is also through after beating japan's yoshihito nishioka. the claim that manchester united are rubbish doesn't smack of bbc impartiality, and "weather: rain everywhere" didn't quite match with meteorological conditions on the day, so some viewers were left confused. john trafford was one of them. so, what was going on? a couple of hours later, all was revealed. a little earlier, some of you may have noticed something pretty unusual on the ticker that runs along the bottom of the screen with news, making a comment about manchester united, and i hope that manchester united fans weren't offended by it. let mejust explain
8:00 am
what was happening. behind the scenes, someone was training to learn how to...to use the ticker and to put text on the ticker, so they were just writing random things, not in earnest, and that comment appeared. so apologies if you saw that and you were offended and you're a fan of manchester united, but, certainly, that was a mistake and it wasn't meant to appear on the screens. that's live television for you. thank you for all your comments this week. if you want to share your opinions about what you see or hear on bbc news on tv, radio, or media, e—mail newswatch at newswatch@bbc.co.uk. or you can find us on twitter @newswatchbbc. you can call us on: and do have a look for previous interviews on our website. that's all from us. rebecca jones will be here for more of your thoughts on bbc news coverage next week. but i'll be back in a fortnight. goodbye.
8:01 am
good morning, welcome to breakfast with nina warhurst and charlie stayt. our headlines today... anger in texas after the police admit they should have been quicker to storm a classroom where a gunman killed 19 children. from the benefit of hindsight, where i'm sitting now, of course, it was not the right decision — it was the wrong decision. period. there is no — no excuse for that.
8:02 am
where was the police that was supposed to be there? to protect them kids? where was it? former us president donald trump joins the debate over gun rules — criticising those calling for tighter restrictions. easyjet cancels more than 200 flights from gatwick putting half—term holidays at risk for thousands of travellers. good morning from paris — could this be the city where livepool clinch their third cup of the season by winning the champions league final against real madrid? around 60,000 liverpool fans are expected here to be part of it, and with just hours to go you can feel the excitement mounting. and it's rugby league's challenge cup final. look ahead to that, as well.
8:03 am
morning all, not a bad start at the weekend for most of us. it will be largely fine and dry with some sunny spells and just a small chance of a few isolated showers. it's saturday the 28th of may. our main story. the families of those killed in tuesday's mass shooting at a primary school in texas have expressed outrage at the police response, after authorities admitted they waited too long to storm the classroom. officers waited in a hallway of the robb elementary school for 40 minutes, despite multiple 911 calls from pupils inside. last night the annual conference of the gun lobby group — the national rifle association — took place in texas. it was addressed by the former us president donald trump, who called for more citizens to be armed. our correspondent barbara plett—usher has the story. just days ago, children cowered on the floor in this school as a killer stalked their classroom. some of them stealthily called 911, begging for police to come and save them.
8:04 am
we now know there were up to 19 policeman in the hallway outside for nearly an hour before security forces finally stormed in. as students in other parts of the schools scrambled to escape, the commanding officer took time to organise an operation to tackle the gunman, who he believed was focused on barricading himself in with the children, and no longer an active threat. from the benefit of hindsight, where i'm sitting now, of course, it was not the right decision — it was the wrong decision, period. there is no — no excuse for that. but again, i wasn't there, but i am just telling you, from what we know, we believe there should have been an entry as soon as we can. hey, when there's an active shooter, the rules change. distraught parents confronted police outside the school on the day of the attack, demanding they act quickly. since then, pressure on the authorities has grown to explain why they didn't. the verdict was blunt and damning. perhaps officials were hoping that admitting mistakes would help to calm the anger here, but there is a lot of frustration
8:05 am
and emotions are running high. this man heard the gunshots from a distance. he found out later they had killed his great—granddaughter. where was that police that was supposed to be there to protect those kids? where was he? first they said he was there, he confront the shooter, then now they are retracting and saying they are not. i have been watching tv all day, and i watched it at night until 12 o'clock, wondering why, why, why? that's all i can tell you. the revelations have embarrassed the state governor, who had been defending the police response. the information i was given turned out, in part, to be inaccurate. and i am absolutely livid about that. he had cancelled his attendance at the convention of the national rifle association, taking place this year in texas, but still holds to its stance that gun control laws are not the answer to the scourge of mass shootings. the former president donald trump
8:06 am
was there to amplify that message. the existence of evil in our world is not a reason to disarm law—abiding citizens who know how to use their weapon and can protect a lot of people. the existence of evil is one of the very best reasons to arm law—abiding citizens. many here say something has to be done, but are reluctant to enter the bitter partisan debate over gun restrictions. speaks spanish and they are beseeching a higher power to help them. ukrainian troops may soon be forced to retreat from the large eastern city of severodonesk, according to a senior official in the region. the governor of the luhansk region says russian forces are in the city and a ukrainian retreat may be necessary to avoid becoming surrounded. our correspondent
8:07 am
joe inwood is in kyiv. can you explain the significance of that place and what is happening? sue bird —— severodonetsk and lysychansk sue bird —— severodonetsk and lysycha nsk are sue bird —— severodonetsk and lysychansk are twin cities in this region. they are the last two cities in what is called the luhansk oblast, one of two regions that make up oblast, one of two regions that make up the donbas and if the russians could take that it would be a big propaganda victory for them. it has been one of the key strategic aims of this entire invasion certainly since they have refocused on the east, to take those two region so if they can do that that will be a big moment for the russian invasion. it will be something president putin could finally start to sell as a victory as justification for this war back home. however, the ukrainians are well dug in although the governor that you reference, he
8:08 am
has said that they might need to make a strategic withdrawal, that is not going to be struck forward, there is only one bridge across the river and the positions they have got in severodonetsk are very defensible, and russian forces do not do well in urban combat, they have lost huge numbers trying to take places like several minutes, mariupol, and kyiv, so it will not be straightforward although it seems like things are swinging in russia's favour. the prime minister is facing continued criticism from some of his own mp5 in the wake of sue gray's report on lockdown parties in downing street. our political correspondent charlotte rose can tell us more. you get a sense that the numbers are growing? taste you get a sense that the numbers are rurowin ? 9 9, 9, you get a sense that the numbers are ”rowin? : ., :, , you get a sense that the numbers are rurowin ? 9 ., ., , ., growing? we have not seen a huge surue growing? we have not seen a huge surae of growing? we have not seen a huge surge of criticism _ growing? we have not seen a huge surge of criticism since _ growing? we have not seen a huge surge of criticism since the - growing? we have not seen a huge surge of criticism since the sue i surge of criticism since the sue gray report was published on wednesday but we have a green trickle of conservatives coming out to say they no longer have
8:09 am
confidence in the prime minister. last night, a backbencher, alicia kearns, put a statement out on social media in which she used very strong language. she said that to say we just need to move on is to treat with contempt and disregard the sacrifices made by the people of milton and rutland, and our country. she said i can only conclude that the prime minister's account of events to parliament was misleading. that's a serious allegation because any minister found to have misled parliament would be expected to resign. she says the scandal has brought the government and my party into disrepute. she finishes by saying that, since january, she has not had confidence in the prime minister and her position remains unchanged. what she does not say is whether she had submitted a formal letter of no confidence in boris johnson. it would take 54 such letters in order to trigger a vote on his leadership. we know that a letter went in from the senior conservative mp sir bob neill yesterday and we saw the resignation of a junior ministerfrom

8:14 am
think so, somebody is very organised and has got the hunting out already. i have not managed that yet at my gaff, but the flags will be fluttering fiercely tomorrow with a fresh northerly wind starting to kick in. at the moment the winds are quite light, starting to come from the north around this high pressure thatis the north around this high pressure that is dominating the story, but they are quite light. more on the way of cloud generally through scotland this morning and running down through the north sea, some isolated showers with it. further west in more shelter and sunshine you will see the best of the warmth as well. temperatures peaking at around 19, possibly if we're lucky 20. coolerfurther north around 19, possibly if we're lucky 20. cooler further north and east, but really, the colder story is set to arrive tomorrow. because the wind will pick up through the night, we could see more showers pushing further inland. through north—west
8:15 am
england into eastern wales, we will see showers first thing. temperatures down into single figures, so actually start, a fresh start with those winds are strengthening. that will drive and more cloud, the greater the risk of some showers, quite widespread, across england and wales, and with that wind direction, the temperatures are going to struggle as well, particularly on exposed north sea coast. you can see all of the wind coming from the northerly direction so temperatures around 10-11 direction so temperatures around 10—11 through sunday afternoon but even as a maximum tomorrow we are looking at highs of 15, below the average for this time of year. we have not seen temperatures like that for quite some time so it will be shocked at the system. back for quite some time so it will be shocked at the system.- for quite some time so it will be shocked at the system. back to you too. shocked at the system. back to you too- thank — shocked at the system. back to you too- thank you _ shocked at the system. back to you too. thank you so _ shocked at the system. back to you too. thank you so much, _ shocked at the system. back to you too. thank you so much, see - shocked at the system. back to you too. thank you so much, see you i shocked at the system. back to you i too. thank you so much, see you on. it's exactly a0 years since the soldiers of 2 para were preparing for the first major [and battle of the falklands conflict. the fight to re—capture goose green cost 18 british lives —
8:16 am
including lieutenant colonel h jones — who was the most senior british officer to be killed in the falklands. he was posthumously awarded the victoria cross for his bravery. his widow sara jones has been remembering the events of 1982. steve humphrey has the story. i've got so many happy memories, but we were only married for 18 years, which is quite short, really, with a0 years since he went. we need to really hang on to other memories. every year at this time, sara jones plants a tree to remember her husband, lieutenant colonel h jones vc. it's just a nice way to mark the anniversary of his death. gives you something to think of. in the years after her husband's death, sara, who lives in salisbury, has been involved with many charities and organisations. she was chairman of the poppy factory. her sons, david and rupert, bothjoined the army. i think they feel so proud and they carry on his tradition
8:17 am
and i'm very proud of them. they've done enormously well. they've got us well and truly pinned down. back in 1982, sara jones says news of the argentinian invasion of the falklands came like a bolt from the blue, with her husband excited at the prospect of being involved in the campaign to recapture the islands. you don't do a job and practise and do all the training and then not want to put it into practice when it comes to it. lieutenant colonel h jones was commanding officer of 2 para. at the time that was based in aldershot. on the 28th and 29th of may, 1982, the battalion attacked the argentinian forces occupying goose green, who had well—prepared defensive positions. this was one of the most heroic attacks that a british infantry battalion has carried out since the second war. 18 british soldiers were killed,
8:18 am
amongst them, colonel h. i think anything like that, you're almost, you don't believe it is real, sort of. and actually, thankfully, in a way, my two sons were here and so in a way, that was good because i was able to tell them and that made life a little bit easier. h jones was killed as he attacked an argentinian position. h decided that things were not going according to plan and so he decided to do it himself. he and his bodyguard went to the trench and tried to take it. for his bravery on the battlefield a0 years ago, lieutenant colonel h jones was posthumously awarded the victoria cross — the nation's highest honour for gallantry. we were hugely proud, and what an accolade. that doesn't make up for losing your husband, but it makes you very proud.
8:19 am
our thanks to sara jones for sharing her memories. speaking there to steve humphrey. the bbc reporter in the film was robert fox. now defence editor of the london evening standard. a very good morning to you. there was an image of you on the scene there, following events, one of only a handful of reporters doing it at that time. what are your memories of that day, a0 years exactly since the battle of goose green? . ~ . , , green? thank the quite patchy but uuite vivid green? thank the quite patchy but quite vivid as _ green? thank the quite patchy but quite vivid as they _ green? thank the quite patchy but quite vivid as they come _ green? thank the quite patchy but quite vivid as they come back. - green? thank the quite patchy but quite vivid as they come back. it i quite vivid as they come back. it was very episodic. as sara has just said. it took much longer than anybody expected. i remember hearing h jones gave his orders at dusk the previous night on the 27th of may, and it was a six phase attack and only the last two would be in daylight, which was to be the last
8:20 am
two moves to capture the settlement of goose green itself. that took nearly 36 hours to do. and most of the fighting was in daylight. and it got very tight indeed, the ammunition ran low, the resistance was unexpectedly strong in unexpected places which always happens. for me as an innocent outsider, it looked quite chaotic at times. as somebody who subsequently became a great friend, the officer commanding the company, johnny crossland, described it as the ultimate, as are party. [30 crossland, described it as the ultimate, as are party. do you think as we are talking _ ultimate, as are party. do you think as we are talking about _ ultimate, as are party. do you think as we are talking about it _ ultimate, as are party. do you think as we are talking about it now - ultimate, as are party. do you think as we are talking about it now after| as we are talking about it now after the years have passed, the way that the years have passed, the way that the falklands conflict is looked at, it is look at is this extraordinary success story militarily, taken out in a very short space of time. do
8:21 am
you think the individuals who fought in that war have been largely forgotten, in the time between, and the damage done to them, notjust the damage done to them, notjust the loss of life, but their mental health? do you think some of that part has been lost a health? do you think some of that part has been los— part has been lost a lot of that does need _ part has been lost a lot of that does need care, _ part has been lost a lot of that does need care, still. - part has been lost a lot of that does need care, still. it - part has been lost a lot of that does need care, still. it goes i part has been lost a lot of that. does need care, still. it goes as reference —— veterans become older and a lot is being done thanks to people like sara jones, something is being done. but you're right. reputation —wise, there was a view which is still held in parts of the british army, this is not the right and proper thing to do. the army was then committed to the cold war, the division of germany known as the inner german border, and what will be doing it messing around and defending the lives of 2000 or so islanders, who had been taken over by a military dictatorship from argentina? it was spectacular in
8:22 am
that the force was sent 8000 miles and did this, from good friday, which was around the ath of april, to surrender, on the 1ath ofjune, but it was very tight because the real, big enemy was the weather. and that campaign, as configured, could certainly not have gone on for a month more. certainly not have gone on for a month more-— certainly not have gone on for a month more. given that you were there and reporting _ month more. given that you were there and reporting on _ month more. given that you were there and reporting on it, - month more. given that you were there and reporting on it, as - month more. given that you were there and reporting on it, as you | there and reporting on it, as you look at something like that wars that have happened since and we think now directly of what is happening in ukraine, what was the communication like between yourself and the bbc and other media organisations and government in terms of the messaging and information that was being passed? it was absolutely totally different. that is where i feel with my great friend and last no longer with us, brian hanrahan, we were a footnote in broadcasting history, because
8:23 am
another pal, subsequently a veteran of the battle, kit chapman said it was the last analog war. in a way, can i say to you as a former bbc reporter, and you being before the colours of the bbc now, it was absolutely terrific because there was no satellite communication, you will not be impressed around by editors that writers have sent this after buenos aires, so what are you going to say about it? you filled your bbc contract to be a little pompous for a moment where you carry the editorial responsibility of the bbc, brian, myself, brian hesketh, the wonderful cameraman, we had to decide editorially what we were going to do, terrific responsibility and discharging that responsibility was thrilling, in a true sense. you are referencing _ was thrilling, in a true sense. you are referencing many people who have become friends, people who are fighting at that time from the military. you have forged a link, they are, over the years, and that

8:25 am
of goose green. eccentric, humane, and very funny colleagues...! what is coming up next! if you're hoping to get away this weekend then make sure you leave plenty of time because it's expected to be the busiest time to travel since before the pandemic. there were long queues at dover yesterday, as liverpool fans flocked to paris for the champions league final. there may be similar scenes today as families head off on half—term trips. people have been so looking forward to it, as well. airports have also seen long queues — this was gatwick — and the budget airline easyjet has announced it is cancelling more than 200 flights from gatwick over the next 10 days. the rac says the roads will also be busy, with around 18 million journeys taking place this weekend.
8:26 am
the independent�*s travel correspondent, simon calder, is at st pancras international station this morning. simon, there is a lot riding on holidays at the moment. people have felt deprived of those big holidays. and yet things are going wrong at this crucial moment. thea;c and yet things are going wrong at this crucial moment.— and yet things are going wrong at this crucial moment. they are, look. the vast majority — this crucial moment. they are, look. the vast majority of _ this crucial moment. they are, look. the vast majority of people - this crucial moment. they are, look. the vast majority of people will - this crucial moment. they are, look. the vast majority of people will get i the vast majority of people will get away on their holiday which they so richly deserve stop many people have not been away since 2019. here at eurostar, which is the rail company that runs from here to paris, amsterdam, to brussels, i have never seen queues like this, but they are moving fairly swiftly. people, of course, going to paris for the champions league final tonight. on top of that, families going off to disneyland paris and further into europe. so eurostar is looking ok. there is absolutely no tickets available today, going out to paris
8:27 am
or coming back tomorrow, largely because of the demand from football fans. you mention dover. that is extremely busy already stop dfds ferries is warning people to allow two hours to complete check—in. then you have the french border control, and they are saying, if you don't get through that in time we will put you on the next available departure, and that is where the big hold—ups are. and it is all to do with brexit. beforehand, you probably remember. you will go through the french passport control in dover, on the side of the channel, you wave your passport through the window, and they would let you in. now that has all changed. because they are obliged by the rules of the european union to check your passport, to stamp your passport, and that adds an awful lot of time to the transactions, and that is why we are
8:28 am
seeing such queues at the moment. that is the trains, the boats, and gatwick, the planes, looking pretty grim this morning. very busy. than grim this morning. very busy. an awful grim this morning. very busy. in awful lot of cancellations. easyjet, 28 cancellations to and from gatwick. as you say, they have decided to cancel 21a flights pre—emptively between now and monday week. that is simply because they were getting so many on the day cancellations, therefore, people were told last night, if you're going to seville, marrakesh, calgary and italy, those flights have been cancelled, but i am afraid we have got more cancellations today, porto in portugal and milan bergamo, they havejust dropped off in portugal and milan bergamo, they have just dropped off the schedules, not just easyjet, have just dropped off the schedules, notjust easyjet, but tui have cancelled the flight to minorca this morning from gatwick and effectively said to people, sorry, your holiday is off. b.

8:30 am
means they have to spend hundreds of pounds paying for a flight on british airways or ryanair orjet too, that is what they have to do, it is the law. —— orjet2. you can rebook on other airlines. the other thing airlines forget to remind you is that if they cancel a flight with less than two weeks notice they have to pay you compensation. £220 for shorterflights, anything over 1500 shorter flights, anything over 1500 kilometres shorterflights, anything over 1500 kilometres in europe or north africa, that is £350. those are your legal entitlements.— legal entitlements. always good to net those legal entitlements. always good to get those basics _ legal entitlements. always good to get those basics through _ legal entitlements. always good to get those basics through the - legal entitlements. always good to i get those basics through the people, simon, good to see you in the sunshine there, see you soon. it is important that people know their entitlements if a flight is cancelled. tens of thousands of fans making their way to paris, liverpool fans, because it is champions league final day. john is there. have you seen many of them arriving yet? it
8:31 am
looks quiet where you are, for now. we have seen liverpool fans arriving. would not there, from the john lennon airport. some of those fans will be gathering their later on. there will be music in stage show as they gear up for that final later on tonight. the fans have tickets will be packing in stade de france. what today we have in store. there is no bigger game in european club football than this. the champions league final. we have liverpool and real madrid, the heavyweights. this is what you want to see when you have a game of this magnitude. liverpool, of course, have been brilliant this season, when you think of whatjuergen klopp has managed to achieve that this team, challenging silverware on all fourfronts, missed out on team, challenging silverware on all four fronts, missed out on the premiership league title to
8:32 am
manchester but they have played in every single game open to them. 63 matches, it would have been in they've only lost three times. with real madrid, it is a team that they save their very best for the stage. no team has ever won it more. how do you split the two? liverpool's love affair with the european cup is strong never. i think we'll do it. i'd _ european cup is strong never. i think we'll do it. i'd say - european cup is strong never. i think we'll do it. i'd say prettyl think we'll do it. i'd say pretty confident- _ we'll concede, but i fancy mo to put in a performance. - we were unlucky in the last one against madrid, but i reckon this one is ours. it is a third final in five seasons, victory over villarreal pitting the serial contenders against familiar foes. over a0 years ago, alan kennedy scored the only goal in liverpool's victory against real madrid, as they lifted the trophy for the third time in the club's history. this team could be classed as one of the greatest
8:33 am
ever liverpool teams, and i will be shouting for them, and i will be willing anybody, and i hope it's the left back, to score a goal. madrid's own association with this competition borders on obsession. four years ago, they won a record 13th title in spectacular style. liverpool the losers this time in kyiv. tonight's final was due to be played in saint petersburg, but was moved here to the stade de france in paris following russia's invasion of ukraine. just under 20,000 tickets have been allocated to liverpool and their fans, who will be packing in here later hoping to see their side cap off a remarkable campaign. we are not here by surprise all we got a ticket, or something like that, we deserved it as well. and so being us, on the highest level, would be cool. having reached the final of every cup competition and taken the premier league title to the final day,

8:46 am
grief and forgiveness. two years ago, bibaa henry and her sister nicole smallman were murdered by a stranger, in a london park. they were both stabbed multiple times. they'd been out celebrating bibaa's a6th birthday but when they failed to return home, their family reported them missing at 5am. their bodies were discovered the following afternoon, under a bush, by nicole's boyfriend. in october, the metropolitan police apologised to the family for what it called a "below standard response" when the sisters were reported missing. the independent office for police conduct found the force failed to follow its missing persons policies. after the pain of losing bibaa and nicole, the family learned that two metropolitan police officers had taken pictures of their bodies at the scene and shared the images in a whatsapp group. they were each sentenced to 33 months in prison. now, bibaa and nicole's mother mina has spoken about her grief, herfaith, and learning to forgive, in a new bbc documentary. let's take a look.
8:47 am
in 2013, mina became the first woman of colour to become an archdeacon but in the yearjust gone her faith has been tested as never before. with the trials of both a man accused of killing her daughters, the two met police officers who shared photos of their bodies coming up, the next few months are going to be tough. today, at the end of this day, is the point at which they died, and it could be that tonight, i have one of my meltdowns which are very necessary. talk me through what that looks and feels like. it is like a dam. i can't do this any more. something snaps. and when it snaps, to be honest with you, i actually want to join my girls.

8:51 am
because you are living it. and it is like an out of body experience, really. we spent a lot of time saying what if? what if? but you can't turn the clocks back, sadly. how do you function day today? it must be with you at all times. when you said, those meltdowns that you have, they are necessary to open the floodgates, to open the dam and let the pain,. how frequent is that i want to day—to—day life look like? we carry on. you know, you have to get on with stuff. there are certain things that trigger us. a piece of music. a date in the calendar. in fact, every time we hear of a woman
8:52 am
being murdered or gone missing, we feel it. all over again, because we know what the family and friends will be going through. there is horrendous. every now and then, i just, the reality that i am never going to see them again hits and it is heartbreaking. in the documentary, i made a conscious decision to allow the cameras in. you know, we got closer, we work together for it for a year and a half and so i got more and more comfortable and braver to allow them to come in and see me at my most broken. which you will see in the documentary. but it is important. it
8:53 am
is important that you get to see all of it. i was very conscious of people seeing me on camera, seemingly very together. i remember one of the press conferences i did the old bailey, when i went inside, ijust completely broke down. you know? because you got the verdict, and then you do, you talk to the press and then i allowed myself to let that relief and release go. and i was in bits. you know?— let that relief and release go. and i was in bits. you know? mina, can i ask ou, i was in bits. you know? mina, can i ask you. you've _ i was in bits. you know? mina, can i ask you, you've talked _ i was in bits. you know? mina, can i ask you, you've talked about - i was in bits. you know? mina, can i ask you, you've talked about the i ask you, you've talked about the trial itself and how difficult that was. what people know from the story
8:54 am
is that there were further developments. when you found out more about the police investigation and the initial searches and how they approached the crime, and then on top of that, you found out about the police officers taking photographs, now, can you give us a sense of every time those things happened, what that was like? it was like, ou happened, what that was like? it was like. you know. _ happened, what that was like? it was like, you know, physically _ happened, what that was like? it was like, you know, physically being i like, you know, physically being attacked. you know, you steel yourself to be able to take in and cope with the worst news in the world. and then to have, you know, what happened, you know when you

hold on, you're holding on for dear life? to use the imagery of holding on to a life raft or something just to keep yourself afloat, and then that support is taken away from you. we sunk. we sunk to a low that we can even imagine. and it felt like an abuse. that we had been abused. and our girls had been abused. it was horrendous. horrendous. iwould imaaine in was horrendous. horrendous. iwould imagine in that _ was horrendous. horrendous. iwould imagine in that time, _ was horrendous. horrendous. iwould imagine in that time, your— imagine in that time, your relationship with your partner is at once the most important thing, but also another layer of pressure that you are seeking to support them, at a time when you are on your knees. how is it affected your relationship? the documentary talked
8:56 am
about how you handle things in different ways. i about how you handle things in different ways.— different ways. i think it's, you know, different ways. i think it's, you know. you'd — different ways. i think it's, you know, you'd never _ different ways. i think it's, you know, you'd never know- different ways. i think it's, you know, you'd never know how i different ways. i think it's, you i know, you'd never know how close different ways. i think it's, you - know, you'd never know how close you are until you're in a situation like this. and i think we are even stronger. you know, my husband and i were friends before we were a couple, so we have a very secure relationship. i say we are like kirstie and phil, is it phil? we are the married version of them, we had lively banter and we squabble, we laugh, wejoke, but most of all, we don'tjudge each other for the things that we need to give us release. and for my husband it is
8:57 am
sports. he does the walking football and tennis. and he has got a really nice network of male friends who have really supported him. and i am a withdrawal person, sometimes i just want to be completely on my own and i call it lala. let me take a sip of coffee because i'm croaky. i call it lala. so i watch films and comedies to distract, but we understand each other. he knows when i am really anxious and he is there. and can you and chris, are you at the point where you can remember treasured memories, you say music can be a trigger, date and the diary can be a trigger, date and the diary can be a trigger, date and the diary can be a trigger, can you enjoy memories of the girls? can you remember the happy occasions without

8:59 am
the girls' ashes. we haven't been able to decide what we are going to do with them. so there are things that we still can't do. but we can, you know, at times, chris will say, do you remember that all this? and so it is mixed. you can't kind of say, right, i have got over that now or we can talk about that now. but we never avoid talking about it with each other if the other needs it. you know, if chris wants to talk about something that has happened, i would never say to him, no, don't talk to me about that, i don't want to hear that. because i would recognise that he needs to talk out. if people, many people watching now will want to see the documentary and

good morning and welcome to breakfast with nina warhurst and charlie stayt. our headlines today: anger in texas after the police admit they should have been quicker to storm a classroom where a gunman killed 19 children. from the benefit of hindsight, where i'm sitting now, of course, it was not the right decision — it was the wrong decision. period. there is no — no excuse for that. where was the police that was supposed to be there? to protect them kids? where was it? former us president donald trump joins the debate over gun rules — criticising those calling for tighter restrictions. easyjet cancels more than 200 flights from gatwick putting half—term holidays at risk for thousands of travellers.
9:03 am
good morning from paris — could this be the city where livepool clinch their third cup of the season by winning the champions league final against real madrid? around 60,000 liverpool fans are expected here and with just hours to go you can feel the excitement mounting. it's a bit early for halloween, but we're talking vampires — after more than 1300 of them gathered in whitby. morning all, not a bad start at the weekend for most of us. it will be largely fine and dry with some sunny spells and just a small chance of a few isolated showers. make the most of today's weather story because tomorrow it's saturday the 28th of may. our main story. the families of those killed in tuesday's mass shooting at a primary school in texas have expressed outrage at the police
9:04 am
response, after authorities admitted they waited too long to storm the classroom. officers waited in a hallway of the robb elementary school for a0 minutes, despite multiple 911 calls from pupils inside. last night the annual conference of the gun lobby group — the national rifle association — took place in texas. it was addressed by the former us president donald trump, who called for more citizens to be armed. our correspondent barbara plett—usher has the story. just days ago, children cowered on the floor in this school as a killer stalked their classroom. some of them stealthily called 911, begging for police to come and save them. we now know there were up to 19 policemen in the hallway outside for nearly an hour before security forces finally stormed in. as students in other parts of the schools scrambled to escape, the commanding officer took time to organise an operation to tackle the gunman, who he believed was focused on barricading himself in with the children, and no longer an active threat. from the benefit of hindsight,
9:05 am
where i'm sitting now, of course, it was not the right decision — it was the wrong decision, period. there is no — no excuse for that. but again, i wasn't there, but i am just telling you, from what we know, we believe there should have been an entry as soon as we can. hey, when there's an active shooter, the rules change. distraught parents confronted police outside the school on the day of the attack, demanding they act quickly. since then, pressure on the authorities has grown to explain why they didn't. the verdict was blunt and damning. perhaps officials were hoping that admitting mistakes would help to calm the anger here, but there is a lot of frustration and emotions are running high. this man heard the gunshots from a distance. he found out later they had killed his great—granddaughter. where was that police that was supposed to be there to protect those kids? where was he? first they said he was there, he confront the shooter, then now they are retracting and saying they are not. i have been watching tv all day, and i watched it at night
9:06 am
until 12 o'clock, wondering why, why, why? that's all i can tell you. the revelations have embarrassed the state governor, who had been defending the police response. the information i was given turned out, in part, to be inaccurate. and i am absolutely livid about that. he had cancelled his attendance at the convention of the national rifle association, taking place this year in texas, but still holds to its stance that gun control laws are not the answer to the scourge of mass shootings. the former president donald trump was there to amplify that message. the existence of evil in our world is not a reason to disarm law—abiding citizens who know how to use their weapon and can protect a lot of people. the existence of evil is one of the very best reasons to arm law—abiding citizens. many here say something has to be done, but are reluctant to enter the bitter partisan debate

9:08 am
contempt and disregard for the sacrifices of the people of rutland and melton and our country. she goes on... and that is a serious allegation because any minister found to have misled parliament would be expected to resign. she concludes, saying that the scandal has brought the government and my party into disrepute. she says that since january she has not had confidence in the prime minister and that her position remains unchanged. what she doesn't do is confirm whether she has submitted a formal letter of no confidence in boris johnson. it would take 5a such letters in order to bring about a vote on his leadership. we did hear that the senior conservative mp sir bob neill has put in such a letter. we also saw yesterday the resignation of a junior government minister yesterday. last night treasury ministerjohn glenn speaking on the bbc said that he believes boris johnson

ukrainians. taking that has been a key strategic russian name since they refocus their objective here after their failure to take kyiv so what we are seeing is the russians putting all of their energy, huge amount of artillery bombardment, of maine, into trying to take the last bits of this key region. once they do that, if they do that, that'll be something president clinton can sell as a victory to people back in russia. however, in his weight —— something that president putin can sell as a victory. they are in the city of sevler donetsk, an old industrial heartland. i have been there. it has warrants of tunnels and bunkers. it is a heavily built—up area. it has been heavily destroyed but it gives good defensive position so, if the ukrainians can hold on it will make russian advance is difficult but as we have heard from the governor, they might decide to retreat to avoid getting encircled. the next days and weeks of this will be crucial for this, days and weeks of this will be crucialfor this, for the days and weeks of this will be crucial for this, for the battle days and weeks of this will be crucialfor this, for the battle for

ukraine. easyjet is cancelling more than 200 flights over the next 10 days — all of them from gatwick. the airline says a range of issues are to blame, including airport delays. the decision comes at the start of the half—term travel rush, which will place pressure on roads, railways and ports — as tim muffett reports. as the half—term holidays began, so did the queues. in dover yesterday, it wasn'tjust tourists waiting to board ferries, so too were liverpool fans on their way to tonight's champions league final in paris. according to the national highways agency, queues on the m4 were largely down to the holiday getaway coinciding with an ed sheeran concert in cardiff. for air travel, it's expected to be the busiest weekend since the start of the pandemic. long queues were reported at a number of airports yesterday. easyjet has also announced it is cancelling around 2a flights a day between now and 6thjune. flights that were due to depart
9:12 am
from gatwick airport. it comes soon after a software failure forced the airline to cancel around 200 flights on thursday. the airline says this fresh wave of cancellations is not related to it problems, but a combination of issues including air traffic control restrictions, runway works and airport handling delays. easyjet has apologised to customers and says they will be able to rebook their flight, or receive a refund. the travel industry cut thousands ofjobs during the pandemic, but as demand for flights has returned, there has been a struggle to recruit staff, carry out security checks and train new workers quickly enough. tim muffett, bbc news. among the many trips taking place this weekend will be thousands of liverpool fans making their way to paris for the champions league final against real madrid tonight. matt graveling

9:18 am
north sea affecting the east coast of england as the day progresses. the further west you are, you will get the lion's share of the sunshine and with the lighter winds you get the warmth as we go through the afternoon. top temperatures around 19 if we are lucky. already starting to get a little bit cooler on those exposed east coasts. that'll continue to be the story later on tonight and into tomorrow. the winds will strengthen. that will push and more cloud generally. we could see more cloud generally. we could see more showers into the north—west of england, the midlands, down into parts of wales by dawn tomorrow morning. it will be a relatively chilly start, in single figures, but into sunday, the winds will start to strengthen and become quite noticeable. high pressure drifts away. that will drag into the air. a little bit further south, a drop in temperature for all of us, through the second half of the weekend. certainly, more cloud around as well. there will be some showers moving their way through england and wales on and off throughout the day was that further showers to come to
9:19 am
scotland and northern ireland. the wind direction coming from a northerly, so a cool source, whatever the time of year, so taking a look at the temperatures, only around 11—13 celsius on the far north—east coast, may be a maximum of 16, north—east coast, may be a maximum ofi6, but north—east coast, may be a maximum of 16, but that is down on just recently. we have seen that area of low pressure drifting in on monday. longer spells of rain and cloudy still, that will make it feel even cooler with a lack of sunshine around. if you get caught in the range you will know about it because the winds will be falling lighter so they will be slow—moving. again there is temperatures likely to struggle, looking at the mid teens generally across the country. we'll start to see the wind direction push toward south—westerly in england and wales, and that will allow temperatures to climb back up...

before dropping again before the end of the week, as i recall! i9 and cardiff. you were paying attention! very good. let's hope for a better link speaking to our next guest. it is the saturday morning catch up. let's see you is there. chris and linda are there, professor linda bauld. i'm going to wait, chris, are you going to say good morning? i did sa aood you going to say good morning? i did say good morning. i was well ahead of the _ say good morning. i was well ahead of the game! 335 say good morning. i was well ahead of the game!— of the game! as always. lovely to see ou of the game! as always. lovely to see you both _ of the game! as always. lovely to see you both again _ of the game! as always. lovely to see you both again this _ of the game! as always. lovely to see you both again this morning. | see you both again this morning. linda, we have mentioned this story, people and maybe more concerned about monkeypox and we know that there are 106 reported cases in the uk as it stands today. bring us up—to—date. where are we with this? there is a lot of attention on this,
9:21 am
a lot of press activity and the uk health security agency has published an update, look at that if you're interested but also the who. we know that monkeypox has been ticked up in a number of countries outside of west africa and central africa, where we know that it has been circulating for some years. what we are seeing in these cases is a number of different things. people are coming forward or being identified as close contacts, they start with a fever, feel unwell, then they develop a rash and it becomes a blister rash, that is the key thing for people to look out for. it is an outbreak. it is spreading. we still don't understand exactly why. that is being investigated. the other thing we have heard from the who and the uk health security agency is that we have treatment for those who are affected, the small numbers at the moment are being cared for in special units that look after infectious diseases, we have several of these around the country stop
9:22 am
they have been offered antivirus, and we have a vaccine that is, that was developed for smallpox that can be effective, and give to close contacts. so, no need to panic but if you have an unusual rash and your unclear, we know that it is men who have sex with men, a number of cases in that group, and call 111 if you are in england, or your in that group, and call 111 if you are in england, oryour gp, depending where you are in the uk and if you are in the community of gay or bisexual men, the terrence higgins trust has a fantastic website with good information about this so what's of good things for people that they are to get their questions answered and get support. linda was talking about transmission, do you want to pick up on that? , , ., ., , transmission, do you want to pick up on that? , , . ., , ., on that? this is naturally an infection — on that? this is naturally an infection that _ on that? this is naturally an infection that is _ on that? this is naturally an infection that is from - on that? this is naturally an infection that is from small| on that? this is naturally an - infection that is from small animals like mice _ infection that is from small animals like mice and rats and squirrels that live — like mice and rats and squirrels that live in _ like mice and rats and squirrels that live in parts of central and west— that live in parts of central and west africa. it was first identified in about— west africa. it was first identified in about five decades ago, it was an outhreak— in about five decades ago, it was an outbreak in —

9:27 am
small numbers, and we are studying what is happening. the reason that it is called acute hepatitis of unknown origin is because we don't know the cause and there are a number of different theories being investigated, one is that it could be linked to adenovirus, which often affects young children and are circulating at the moment. and because children had been exposed during covid could have different type of effect, it could be a different type of adenovirus that is being investigated. the otherfear is that kids have had covid, and there may be some on usual adverse events that come out of that that may be harming the liver, so these are all things being investigated. it is not linked to the vaccine. these young children have not had vaccines, or 80% of them haven't, we know from the material that has been produced so for parents, don't be alarmed, but the things to look out for are that it often starts with gastroenteritis, with diarrhoea and
9:28 am
vomiting, but crucially, if you see any signs ofjaundice, which often starts with yellowing in the eyes, thenit starts with yellowing in the eyes, then it is important to get in touch with your gp, the nhs, and get it supported. the kids are getting the supported. the kids are getting the support they need, it is still rare, but as chris was discussing with monkeypox, there are so many things happening in the population with viruses, they are behaving a bit differently, and we really need to get to the bottom of this. the advice is to — get to the bottom of this. the advice is to be _ get to the bottom of this. the advice is to be vigilant but not to panic. thank you for that clarification, it is important at the moment when viruses are behaving in unusual ways. there is nothing like talking about diseases and gastric problems they get is in the mood for saturday kitchen! what you think, ? ., mood for saturday kitchen! what you think,? ., ., , ~' mood for saturday kitchen! what you think,? ., ~ ., mood for saturday kitchen! what you think,? . ~ ., ~ ., , think,? that was like a link from my cuboard! think,? that was like a link from my cupboard! we _ think,? that was like a link from my cupboard! we have _ think,? that was like a link from my cupboard! we have a _ think,? that was like a link from my cupboard! we have a talented - think,? that was like a link from my cupboard! we have a talented actor| cupboard! we have a talented actor

9:32 am
the champions league final. liverpool, real madrid, john is there. it is remarkably tranquil where you are. you can see the blue skies and fluffy clouds. down the waterway there is one of the big fan zones, is that right? we are not far from the fan parks where the liverpool supporters will be travelling. ahead of the final tonight, they have been travelling. there's been music and stage performances, and some of them lucky enough who have tickets will be heading to stade de france which is about 20 minutes that way, the huge final to come at about 8pm tonight. they don't get much bigger than the european cup final. in two european heavyweights in the shape of liverpool who will hoping to win the title and real madrid, a team that
9:33 am
seems to say their best for the big sites. no team has won it more. carlo ancelotti is a cool and calm, he has built a team with a mould. and then you gotjurgen klopp, he has built a steam and full throttle football is what he promised and has delivered. will it be a successful one as well? how do you split these two? it is tough to do so, isn't it? liverpool's love affair with the european cup is stronger than ever. i think we will do it, i honestly think we will do it. we'll concede, but i fancy mo to put in a performance. i'd say pretty confident. we were unlucky in the last one against madrid, but i reckon this one is ours. it is a third final in five seasons, victory over villarreal pitting the serial contenders against familiar foes.

over 40 years ago, alan kennedy scored the only goal in liverpool's victory against real madrid, as they lifted the trophy for the third time in the club's history. this team could be classed as one of the greatest ever liverpool teams, and i will be shouting for them, and i will be willing anybody, and i hope it's the left back, to score a goal. madrid's own association with this competition borders on obsession. four years ago, they won a record 13th title in spectacular style. liverpool the losers this time in kyiv. tonight's final was due to be played in saint petersburg, but was moved here to the stade de france in paris following russia's invasion of ukraine. just under 20,000 tickets have been allocated to liverpool and their fans, who will be packing in here later hoping to see their side cap off a remarkable campaign.
9:35 am
we are not here by surprise or we got a ticket, or something like that, we deserved it as well. and so being us, on the highest level, would be cool. having reached the final of every cup competition and taken the premier league title to the final day, many are calling this one of the greatest liverpool sides in history. victory later, in this, one of the biggest games of all, it might be hard to disagree. and joining us now is missy who has just won the women's champion ship for liverpool and her cousinjosh. i know you got to the fa cup final, didn't you? you've watched a lot of games this season because you've seen missy in virtually every game he's played. are you feeling hopeful? is it going to happen? yeah, hopefully. you hopeful? is it going to happen? yeah, hopefully.— hopeful? is it going to happen? yeah, hoefull. ., , , yeah, hopefully. you did this season in the championship. _ yeah, hopefully. you did this season in the championship. you're - yeah, hopefully. you did this season in the championship. you're playingl in the championship. you're playing in the championship. you're playing in the championship. you're playing

9:40 am
building up here in north london. there's nothing like an empty stadium on the morning of a cup final with the lines being freshly painted ready for the game. and the pa has just switched off for a few moments. i hope you can hear me. we've got the community groups getting ready for the starring role in the competition, final bit. it really is building up the challenge cup final. hopefully it will be back in the more traditional home next year, it is because of a scheduling problem with the play—offs being there. eitherway, it will problem with the play—offs being there. either way, it will be a moment of history because this is the first rugby league occasion to take place at this brand—new stadium. there is no club at the challenge cup history quite like the wigan warriors. you will remember the fantastic teams of the late 80s, early 90s when they won this competition eight times in a row, some of the greatest players who
9:41 am
ever played the game. the likes of these great players. they'll be desperate to bring back these kinds warriors. the fans will be desperate to win this trophy. some will never have seen it before. let's bring in jamie peacock, and man who knows what it's like to win the trophy. four times at two different clubs. jamie, it is a special occasion for the sport. it jamie, it is a special occasion for the sport-— jamie, it is a special occasion for the sort. _, ., ., the sport. it is a huge occasion for the sport. it is a huge occasion for the sport- — the sport. it is a huge occasion for the sport- i _ the sport. it is a huge occasion for the sport. ithink— the sport. it is a huge occasion for the sport. i think as _ the sport. it is a huge occasion for the sport. i think as a _ the sport. it is a huge occasion for the sport. i think as a player, i the sport. it is a huge occasion for the sport. i think as a player, it i the sport. i think as a player, it is one of the finals you want to be involved in. with two finals in rugby league. want to see what the game looks like today and it's great to see it here at tottenham. tell game looks like today and it's great to see it here at tottenham.- to see it here at tottenham. tell us what their players _ to see it here at tottenham. tell us what their players will _ to see it here at tottenham. tell us what their players will go _ to see it here at tottenham. tell us what their players will go through i what their players will go through in the build—up to the game. every player is different, what was it like for you on the day of the final? i like for you on the day of the final? ~ , , like for you on the day of the final? ~' , , ., , , ., final? i think it is times, as you crow final? i think it is times, as you grow older _ final? i think it is times, as you grow older and _ final? i think it is times, as you grow older and your _ final? i think it is times, as you grow older and your career, i final? i think it is times, as you i grow older and your career, when i first played in 2000, i was younger in my career, i was so excited and

9:44 am
and our mike bushell has been to the city to soak up the pre—match atmosphere. there was once a time in this city of legends that one of its football clubs made fairy tales of its own. nottingham forest, champions of europe in 1979 and 1980 when mull of kintyre became their adopted anthem to celebrating the miracles worked by brian clough and peter taylor. # mull of kintyre... and now, the song is being sung again with forest witnessing another kind of miracle this season, after decades of decline. so far this century, it has been a story of how the mighty fall. down through the divisions, beset by financial problems, it was april 1999 when forest were last in the premier league, a time when westlife and boyzone were vying for number one and many fans like forest podcaster max were not even born. i can't lie to say that i was jealous of other fans. i was jealous of other kids at school that had seen success, but i stuck with the club for one reason. because i love forest. the importance of not
9:45 am
just coming to watch the game, but also the community around forest. we have a great fan base. max had to rely on the older fans telling him about better times of supporting forest in the top division. it has been awful! dire. i think of supporting them as being like a rollercoaster. for this generation, it is fantastic. we will have a whole younger fan base still, which is important. it'sjust never felt like our time. but now it does. it just feels different this time. but the last 23 years have not been a laughing matterfor this comedian, and impressionist and lifelong forest fan matt. i was doing my gsces the last time. that's how long it's been. look where my hairline is now! the whole...society has changed so much since then. one thing that has not changed is forest have been out of the premier league. music: just can't get enough by depeche mode now forest have the chance to return to the top table, and wherever they were, fans have been doing their bits to make sure their dreams don't end up half baked, like at the supermarket.
9:46 am
what can we do to try to support our local team? we have decided to put the forest crest on. social media went ballistic so we have people sayingl they want to buy five or six of these. i # ijust can't get enough...# this is a story that forest fans never thought they would see this season. go back to september, they were bottom of the championship with just a single point. then they appointed the new head coach steve cooper and he has performed what they are now calling a new miracle here, getting them all the way to the fa cup quarter—finals... jake spence! nearly into second place into the championship before now, in the play—off final against huddersfield. i have never seen a forest manager come in and have such an impact. it is incredible. there is a sense of destiny around the place. i just feel so nervous! trying to convince myself. i haven't slept. i wake up at four o'clock in the morning bolt upright! it has been bleakfor a long time.
9:47 am
all of a sudden we are at wembley, we are 90 minutes away from being back in the premier league. you can feel the history of the club here and you can but i can't believe i'm crying! it is certainly stirring the memories of clough's miracle men of the late 70s, conquering europe two seasons running. not that those glory days have ever been forgotten by the heroes themselves, some of whom still meet up every week, as well as sharing the story of why mull of kintyre will be sung by the forest fans at wembley, and how it started at a bar. # mull of kintyre... we were out one night at a pub called the robin hood. they had a snorkel on the wall. the song was number one at the time, and john o'hare, just off the cuff one night, went behind the bar, took down this snorkel and started pretending it was bagpipes! pipes skirl
9:48 am
so much associated. if you are a forest fan. you can't help it. the first half goal byjohn robertson. something emotional about it. they retained the cup and kept the trophy in england for the fourth year running. there is this togetherness that we certainly had _ in the team when i was playing. and that's why we were so successful i and you can see little hints of it. i always backing each other up. a little bit of a dream come true, really. i steve's one of the few managers that has come in and has really taken the history and the tradition of the club to heart, you know? it is a great time for the club, they've been out much too long, really. but nobody has any divine right to be in the premier league. we still remember. it is still nice to go back to those years as we remember it, but it happened, is about the players now, the club now, about what happens on sunday and it is one of the biggest games in the club's history. this chance for a whole new generation to taste what it feels like in the premier league
9:49 am
and we can only imagine what cloughie himself might say. as brian clough: young man, people like you asking questions of people like me, the whole point, football is for the fans and the fans will be there at wembley and i'lljust remind you that at three o'clock, we've won nowt! # just can't get enough...# mike bushell, bbc news, nottingham. that's a brilliant impression! i remember my dad doing that impression all through the 80s. that was a boy everyone put on. ila? impression all through the 80s. that was a boy everyone put on.— was a boy everyone put on. no? and indeed, was a boy everyone put on. no? and indeed. so — was a boy everyone put on. no? and indeed. so did _ was a boy everyone put on. no? and indeed, so did u. _ was a boy everyone put on. no? and indeed, so did u. at— was a boy everyone put on. no? and indeed, so did u. at a _ was a boy everyone put on. no? and indeed, so did u. at a moment i was a boy everyone put on. no? and indeed, so did u. at a moment to i indeed, so did u. at a moment to go... indeed, so did u. at a moment to no... ., h indeed, so did u. at a moment to go... that's right, duck, i did. an one go... that's right, duck, i did. anyone from _ go... that's right, duck, i did. anyone from nottinghamshire go... that's right, duck, i did. i anyone from nottinghamshire can confirm that was a good impression. any... lots of shaking heads right now. ., , ., , .," any... lots of shaking heads right now. ., , ., , ., , any... lots of shaking heads right now. ., , ., , .,~ ., , ., now. lots of shaking heads. it was a aood t .

9:51 am
will develop. the winds are going to strengthen free evening and overnight. this is where the real cool air arrives. we see showers moving their way westwards. they will be the first thing on sunday. a chilly start for some of us and it will be notably windier for all of us as we go through the day on sunday. the high pressure is drifting away, though cool air starts to push its way down through the midlands and down towards the south coast as well. a real difference for all of us. more cloud around for sunday, the risk of more showers, generally across the country. sunshine and shower day tomorrow and cooler. the temperatures will struggle. below the average for the time of year all because this direction it's coming from the north and we are likely to see maximums ofjust ten to 15 or 16 degrees if we are lucky. this cool and showery story is going to stay with us for the first part of the week as low pressure takes over. moving and off the north sea. that
9:52 am
