good morning, welcome to breakfast withjon kay and nina warhurst. our headlines today: an emergency meeting in paris as the uk calls for an investigation into the treatment of liverpool fans at the champions league final. president biden meets grieving families in texas amid anger at the slow police response to last week's school shooting in which 19 children and two teachers died. nottingham forest return to the premier league. after 23 years away, the two—time european champions are back in the top flight of english football after beating huddersfield at wembley. and ahead of the platinum jubilee, we get a tour
6:01 am
of the queen's floating palace — the royal yacht britannia. and be right for the platinum jubilee? i will glance into the crystals bolt to see what the weather has in store and a detailed forecast for today, with some showers, some heavy and thundery. it's monday 30th may. our main story is that the french government will hold an emergency meeting today with uefa and other officials, to examine what went wrong at the champions league final on saturday. there were chaotic scenes before and after the match after french police repeatedly fired tear gas and pepper spray at liverpool fans waiting to get into the stadium in paris. the uk's culture secretary nadine dorries has called for an investigation into what happened as tim muffett reports. fallback! fall back!
6:02 am
in the countdown to kick—off, this was the situation facing many fans on saturday night. real madrid's 1—0 victory over liverpool at the stade de france has been largely overshadowed by what went on outside the ground. it was just... the only word i can think of is chaos. we were patiently trying to queue. and then we'd be pushed by the police and kettled against railings, against the wall. and then pepper spray had come out and i was completely disorientated, didn't know what was happening with all the crowds that were there as well. there were children crying. there were grown men who were kind of shouting out that they needed help. who were kind of shouting out this nine—year—old boy was one of those who suffered the after—effects of tear gas. many liverpool fans say the policing was shambolic and heavy handed. there was no communication.
6:03 am
we weren't told if the gate was going to open, when it was going to open. it wasjust chaotic. and actually it was a disgrace and it was very, very dangerous. it was shambolic. it was dangerous and hostile. and one of the worst atmospheres i've ever experienced _ among football fans, i've ever experienced that at blue ribbon events. - uefa said that turnstiles became blocked because thousands of liverpool fans arrived with fake tickets. footage also show some people climbing overfences, but it's not clear whether they're liverpool fans or not. today, the french sports ministry will host a meeting with uefa, the french football association, stadium officials and police. it says it wants to draw lessons from the event. the culture secretary, nadine dorries, has called for a formal investigation. she described the footage and descriptions from fans as deeply concerning. "i urge uefa to launch a formal investigation into what went wrong and why", she said in a statement.
6:04 am
following their defeat in paris there was still a victory parade in liverpool yesterday, the club having won both the fa cup and league cup this season, a positive end to what had been a dispiriting weekend for the team and its fans. tim muffett, bbc news. so this morning we will try to work out what went wrong. we will hear from fans who attended the match including ian burnley mp who saw in that report so we will try to understand what happened so it doesn't happen again. the us presidentjoe biden has promised to turn "pain into action" during a visit to the texan town of uvalde where 19 children and two teachers were killed in america's latest mass shooting. the president and the first lady laid white roses at a memorial for the victims, before meeting families and survivors. from texas, our north america correspondent, barbara plett usher, reports.
6:05 am
do something! do something! the commander in chief was visiting a community in shock, devastated by loss. "do something, do something" the crowd chanted as he left a church service. "we will, we will", he responded. his only public remarks on the trip. it is the hardest visit a president has to make, especially when the victims are so young. outside the school, mr biden and his wife, jill, paused to recognize each of those murdered while cowering on the floor of their classroom. 19 children and two teachers. later, they met privately with the families. a bouquet of flowers added to the mound of remembrance that seeks to dampen the horror by honouring the dead. but the police response to the shooting is now under review by the justice department. the rampage began when the teenage gunman entered the school through a back door, armed with a high—powered rifle. children as young as nine were trapped with him for an hour
6:06 am
before security forces finally stormed in. this small community has pulled together to face an unspeakable tragedy. but the political environment is difficult. there's a fierce debate about how to stop such attacks. the president wants to tighten gun laws and faces strong partisan opposition, especially in texas. this is, after all, gun country. there are mixed feelings about mr biden�*s visit. i don't know if it can make any difference, actually. i think that as a nation, we'rejust very divided. but i think that in a time of crisis, itjust... it's great for leaders to show unity. we just need to grieve. we just... just come here and give us hope for tomorrow. but don't tell us politically what we need to do. most of all, the families don't want their pain to be drawn into the political disputes. patricia castanon is lost in a fog of grief at the death of her niece, annabelle.
6:07 am
she was happy, smiley. this is how she was with me. there's no words for me to say. she was just a good person. we know that the president is coming to visit. do you think that will help? no. why do you say that? because he can't bring her back. he can't bring her back. he can't bring none of them back. and nobody can. he can't bring them back. and he's struggling to protect others. his biggest obstacle is how to prevent this from happening again. this is the second time in a month that president biden has made a visit to console a community recovering from a mass shooting. and he finds it very distressing and frustrating. and here, of course, they're facing another difficult week as they prepare to begin burying their loved ones. barbara plett usher, bbc news, uvalde, texas. ukraine's president volodymyr
6:08 am
zelensky has visited troops in the kharkiv region, on the country's battered eastern front line. it's his first official trip outside the capital since the russian invasion began. let's speak to our correspondentjoe inwood. joe, how much does president zelensky�*s visit signal that the tide�*s turning in ukraine's second city? it is definitely a sign that the battle around kharkiv has gone ukraine's way. this is the second city of the country and was almost under constant bombardment but in the last few weeks ukrainian forces have pushed the russian forces almost all the way back to the international border so a couple of weeks ago president zelensky would not have made this visit. he saw troops and handed out awards but the battle for kharkiv is not over. russians are still within shelling distance of the city and a number of attacks came in on the day he was
6:09 am
there. this is a morale boosting event for the people of the city but it's in the context of a very difficult situation elsewhere. in the east of the country, the donbas, in severodonetsk city the bombardment is getting more intense and the ukrainians are struggling to hold on. , ., . ~' and the ukrainians are struggling to hold on. , ., ., ~ the ukrainian band who won this year's eurovision song contest, kalush orchestra, have sold their trophy at auction for $900,000, to raise money for the war in ukraine. the sale coincided with the band's appearance at a charity concert for ukraine in berlin. the funds will be used to buy drones for the army. that time is nine minutes past six, it's quite nice and bright out there this morning. it

6:11 am
warm for the stage approaching june, 13 degrees across parts of scotland but if you were out at the weekend you may have realised if you get in the sunnier moments it won't feel too bad. 0vernight showers keep going, many places become dry with heavier bursts towards the north—west, temperatures down into single figures, coldest across northern scotland and in the next few days we will see sunshine and showers on tuesday, if you were on wednesday as they remain mostly in the east. and hopefully settling down a bit towards the platinum jubilee. will you give us that in the next half an hour from the weather? what a tease he is. the king ofjordan has described the queen as a beacon of light and hope ahead of her platinum jubilee. speaking to our royal correspondent, daniela relph, king abdullah i! said the queen set a high moral standard in public life and held a special
6:12 am
place in the heart of his family. the crowded landscape of amman injordan. for generations, the bond between this country's royal family and british royalty has been strong. hello. how are you? something the current king ofjordan, abdullah ii, reflected on as we spoke about his lifelong family friend, the queen. as king, you are in a unique position to observe the reign of another monarch. i wonder how you view the queen's 70 years on the throne. i think with with a lot of humility. my late father, his majesty king hussein, became a monarch the same year as her majesty. and the special relationship that they had is something that we inherited and we grew up with. but to think of what she has seen in her life and the standard that she has, i think, held as a monarch is an example for all of us. so for me, it'sjust, i'm honoured to be part of that story, to have seen that special relationship between
6:13 am
my father and her, between myself and her majesty and his royal highness, prince charles, and now a wonderful young man, prince william, who's a friend of my son. so this is a historical relationship that we're very, very proud of. what are the attributes that she has that have largely made her reign so successful? i think, you know, when you look at her majesty, you look at consistency and i think putting the moral bar at the highest point possible. she has dedicated herself to the monarchy and to the people. and as we have all experienced, sometimes you say things or have to take positions that may not necessarily be popular but is the right thing. and i think that moral compass, if you look at her reign, is, i think, what has really made her shine compared to monarchies elsewhere. and as king, you know what it's
6:14 am
like to live your life in the public eye and the challenges that brings. how difficult is that aspect of the job? the queen has had a difficult few years. how difficult is it to live life so publicly in all its challenges? immensely difficult, because you're always under the microscope. and again, i think that when you look at how her majesty has typified her rule, it's again, that moral compass of feeling, i'm here to serve the people. and, you know, my life is under a microscope. but i will not shy away from my responsibility as a monarch and to hold that bar as high as she has, i think it'sjust a testament of who she is. what lessons are there to be learnt from the queen's reign? if you look at 70 years of british history, you've had good days and bad days. her majesty, i think, was a beacon of light, of hope and continues to be, i believe, for your nation and for many of us around the world. and finally, can i ask you if you have a message for the queen on this platinumjubilee, such a historic moment for the uk?
6:15 am
in our own humble way as the son of one of her closest friends, his majesty, king hussein, i just say congratulations on just a remarkable 70 years of what you've done for your nation, for your people. i am very proud, in a small way, to have that relationship with her majesty and with your country. and our heart is always going to have a very big and warm place for her majesty the queen. king abdullah, thank you very much for talking to the bbc. thank you. that was king abdullah speaking to daniela relph. let's take a look at today's papers. the mirror leads on the chaos in paris at the champions league final, with the paper quoting one liverpool fan who says his nine—year—old son was tear—gassed by french police. the times reports that six million uk households could face power cuts this winter due to russia's invasion of ukraine. the paper has been told the government's "reasonable" worst—case scenario is there could be widespread gas shortages if russia cuts

6:19 am
in here, we've got the baby's ashes. these precious items, a memory box for laura and laurence's baby. some comfort in a time of utter despair. it's been just two months since the couple suffered a late miscarriage 15 weeks into their pregnancy. it happened after they were sent home from hospital, having been told their baby no longer had a heartbeat. there were no beds available, the hospital said, for laura to give birth there. i woke up in really quite bad pain. i felt a lot of pressure. and so i ran upstairs to the bathroom and that's where i delivered the baby. i looked... i looked down and canjust see a mass in the water. and so i scooped it out, still assuming that it was going to be something else.
6:20 am
and at that point, i realised that it was a baby. i realised it was my baby, obviously. and you just think, obviously it's not alive, and so i scooped it out, put it in the sink and realised it was a baby boy. and at that point, i'd screamed and laurence had come upstairs and ijust was in such a panic. i just went out to the bathroom, closed the door and said, do not go in there. the couple called 999 but were advised that this wasn't an emergency. and so they placed their baby's remains in a box and went into a&e, which they say was chaos. it got to midnight and we just thought, we've got a decision to make here. there's no—one at this hospital who's willing to take charge of our baby. there's no—one who seems to know what's going on. and it's been in a hot room
6:21 am
for nearly five hours now. so we decided together that i would go home. so i took the box to the entrance of the hospital and got a taxi and took took him home, cleared out some space in our fridge and put him there. as harrowing as it is to talk about what happened, the couple say they're speaking out to try and ensure this doesn't happen to anyone else. when were you sitting in that a&e waiting room, at that point, you just felt like there is no safety net. when things go wrong with the pregnancy, you know, there are not the systems in place to help you. and even with all the staff and the experts and they're working really hard in the best way
6:22 am
in the world, the processes are so flawed that itjust felt like we've been tipped into hell. a statement from lewisham and greenwich nhs trust, "we are deeply sorry and offer our sincerest condolences to miss brody and her partner for the tragic loss of their baby in these traumatic experiences." it goes on to say a full investigation is under way to understand where failings in care may have occurred so that any necessary changes and improvements can be made. it's beyond sad, really. it's unbearable. there should be an. available cold place. there simply should l be, and it should be, if it's not in the morgue, there probably ought - to be something in a&e. and there ought to be something in the maternity department - or in the gynae department, - somewhere where pregnancy remains or these tiny little babies can be safely and respectfully- and carefully stored with clear labelling. why isn't that happening yet? i don't know, but it isn't happening. i
6:23 am
we're talking about one case - and we're talking about one trust. and i'm sure it happensj in more than one place, more than one trust. so we have to be careful not to assume from this case i that everything is awful. there is good advicel and guidance around. and at the same time, - it's also about ensuring the staff have the time and the space to work through that. - the importance of pregnancy loss care is increasingly being recognised. this is a special cot for babies that have died here at birmingham women's hospital. there's a specialist suite in a side room on the maternity ward for women who are having a late miscarriage or stillbirth. the hospital is also starting work on a first of its kind in the uk bereavement centre, specialising in care forfamilies, including those experiencing pregnancy loss.
6:24 am
this site is going to be our woodland house. they will be able to come back and see their baby there. if they want to go home, we'll be able to hold follow—up appointments with doctors. we'll be able to look after our families going through early pregnancy loss who want to come back in and collect their pregnancy, maybe for a little burial at home or a funeral amongst the smell amongst the smell of fresh roses and a feeling of being close to family, laura and laurence can remember and grieve. this is the crematorium where my grandparents' ashes were scattered and their plaque's here. and we were thinking of putting the baby's ashes here as well. itjust gives what happens some permanence and it's something tangible as otherwise itjust feels like everything evaporates and it never really happened and the baby's just forgotten. and all of this heartbreak is just for nothing. we just felt like the baby's already been so alone. and this way, at least it's near us. and it's near family.
6:25 am
tulip mazumdar, bbc news. laura and lawrence, thinking of you and i know they were sharing their story because they want other people not to go through what they have been through. we not to go through what they have been through-— been through. we will be talking later to a charity _ been through. we will be talking later to a charity who _ been through. we will be talking later to a charity who are - later to a charity who are campaigning to make sure after—care forfamilies in that campaigning to make sure after—care for families in that situation is improved and is more uniform so everyone has a level of expectation to make sure they get the right care. if you've been affected by any of the issues raised in this report, you can find links to help and support at bbc.co.uk/actionline. time now to get the news, travel and weather where you are. good morning, this is bbc london, i'm frankie mccamley. survivors of a deadly fairground
6:26 am
accident in south—west london will plant a tree today to remember the victims. it's now 50 years since the big dipper roller—coaster crashed in battersea park, killing five children and injuring more than a dozen. it's been described as a "forgotten tragedy" and there's now a campaign for a permanent memorial. the mayor said he's in talks with wandsworth council. i know from other memorials i have been involved in, it's a place you could go to just to reflect, to think, to spend time with others, to commemorate this awful tragedy. but also its a reminder of the importance of health and safety, to make sure we get things right. we also need to educate londoners about this tragedy almost 50 years ago. it's feared many people in temporary accomodation are trapped in their situation due to a shortage of affordable homes. a three—year study by the charity crisis suggests almost half of those in need of housing remained homeless despite seeking help from their local council. there are now calls for the government to

6:38 am
but for now, it's the promotion party that can begin. absolutely over the moon, really. i have been supporting forest since i was, sort of, that high when my dad used to take me down and, yeah, it's just i've followed them all over europe and it's absolutely fantastic, isn't it, really? great day, obviously, premier league, first time in 20 odd years, brilliant day. they put us through the mill, . don't they, nottingham forest? my nerves are shredded, absolutely shredded. - so, premier league next season, looking forward to it. _ it's not the easiest way to get promoted. it is often all at once the most agonising, the most exciting. in the end, forest needed just one goal to beat huddersfield town. it came before half—time, the unfortunate levi colwill deflecting into his own net. it wasn't pretty, it didn't have to be. forest fans will remember the goal forever. the one that ended the exile. the final whistle confirming it. i'm just pleased for everybody connected with the football club. we are a big football club, we know
6:39 am
that, full of history and tradition. we stand on that proud but i've always said, let's try and create the next positive chapter. and we've managed to do that. they call this football's richest game, 170 million the estimated value of promotion. but for the nottingham forest fans, this means far more than money. it signals the end of the wait, it signals the start of their new premier league era. adam wild, bbc news, at wembley. celtic won the women's scottish cup, and with it, ensured that glasgow city finished a season trophyless for the first time since 2005. izzy atkinson got the winning goal in extra—time, making it 3—2, against city at tynecastle. they beat the same opposition to lift the league cup earlier in the season. formula 0ne's monaco grand prix was badly affected by heavy rain. the start was delayed by over an hour after heavy downpours
6:40 am
but the race was eventually won by red bull's sergio perez. his team outfoxed rivals ferrari allowing perez to move from third to the lead during a wet part of the race. championship leader max verstappen finished third, crucially ahead of title rival charles leclerc. it means verstappen extends his lead to nine points. lewis hamilton started and finished eighth. rafa nadal took five sets to get past felix auger aliassime at the french open. nadal lost the opening set but roared back to win the next two. the canadian who is coached by nadal�*s uncle toni made sure the match went to five sets with nadal winning the final set 6—3. it sets up a mouthwatering quarter final against novak djokovic who swept aside argentina's diego schwartzmann in straight sets. american teenager coco gauff has equalled her best run

at roland garros by reaching the last eight. belgian elise mertens was seen off in straight sets. she'll play fellow american sloane stephens next. the world of horse racing has been paying tribute to lester piggott, who has died at the of 86. he won the derby a record nine times among almost 11,500 winners. in 1987, he was jailed for tax fraud, spending a year and a day in prison, but returned to racing after his release, before retiring at the age of 59. an incredible competitor. a ruthless competitor, somebody who marched to the beat of his own drum, but someone with an instinctive and sympathetic talent on a horse. somebody who completely understood horses and racing, and more than that, someone with an intense thirst to know everything about every race he was riding it. he was way ahead of his time and he had a massive edge.

6:43 am
shortage of lorry drivers and the big covid shut down. let me talk you do the numbers. building materials have gone up by more than 25 —— 23%. some items have gone up even more, one merchant told us that the price of timber has gone up by 70%. plastic as well, if you have a pvc door fitted, plastic as well, if you have a pvc doorfitted, it could cost plastic as well, if you have a pvc door fitted, it could cost you £200 more now than it would have done a year ago. x0 83% of builders are having to put their prices up for thejobs having to put their prices up for the jobs they are doing for people like you and me. that is if they can get hold of goods. there are supply problems which means that people like sabiha have to wait longer for jobs to be done at home. this is the porch the builders left unfinished. the first builder, even before the price had gone up, he was playing up a bit with timing and everything. maybe it's because the price had gone up, and the quote
6:44 am
they gave initially, they can't cope with it. it's traumatising, basically because your living standard, your house, everything, is so affected, obviously. it does affect your emotion lot. let's speak to the managing director here at emery�*s, james. are you noticing the prices going up, and if so what are you noticing? goad so what are you noticing? good morning- _ so what are you noticing? good morning- we — so what are you noticing? good morning. we are _ so what are you noticing? good morning. we are in _ so what are you noticing?

6:45 am
economically difficult times? we have never _ economically difficult times? - have never seen anything like it in the industry. we have had price increases before, recessions, good times and bad times but at the moment it feels very buoyant, sales are good, but we question whether we can actually see it is being masked by price increases. so you have got a volume increase which is only 1.5% but there is a big feel good factor in the industry, because sales are up in the industry, because sales are up 18%. so we are wondering how masked the actual real picture is at the moment. 50 masked the actual real picture is at the moment-— the moment. so you sell to the builders. the moment. so you sell to the builders- if _ the moment. so you sell to the builders. if they _ the moment. so you sell to the builders. if they have _ the moment. so you sell to the builders. if they have to - the moment. so you sell to the builders. if they have to pay - the moment. so you sell to the i builders. if they have to pay more for materials, they have to charge customers more, so what do builders say when you tell them that the prices have gone up? it say when you tell them that the prices have gone up?— say when you tell them that the prices have gone up? it has been really difficult, _ prices have gone up? it has been really difficult, i _ prices have gone up? it has been really difficult, i feel— prices have gone up? it has been really difficult, i feel for- prices have gone up? it has been really difficult, i feel for the - really difficult, i feel for the builders, our customers and end users. but everyone can see it is the case. it is an accepted fact,
6:46 am
people are feeling it with their own fuel bills, electricity at home, transport costs. there are pressures from every angle. people there appreciate that it is not rank profiteering or anything like that, it is the nature of the world and the economy we are in. the way that is driving everything, we are yet to see but it does feel very buoyant. thank you very much indeed, james, thank you for speaking to us. all of that means that if the question you are asking this morning is, can ben the builderfix it, yes, he can, but he will have to charge you more because the raw materials are going to be more expensive. you because the raw materials are going to be more expensive.— because the raw materials are going to be more expensive. you forgot to do the pensive _ to be more expensive. you forgot to do the pensive chin _ to be more expensive. you forgot to do the pensive chin scratch - to be more expensive. you forgot to do the pensive chin scratch when - to be more expensive. you forgot to| do the pensive chin scratch when you said how much the raw materials are. it is going to cost you! more said how much the raw materials are. it is going to cost you!— it is going to cost you! more than it would have _ it is going to cost you! more than it would have done. _ it is going to cost you! more than it would have done. but - it is going to cost you! more than it would have done. but as - it is going to cost you! more than j it would have done. but as james vincent, it would have done. but as james

pressure from france gets to summon areas, it could strengthen the winter break some heavy showers. there is a chance of a few showers over thejubilee weekend but there is a chance of a few showers over the jubilee weekend but for most of the over thejubilee weekend but for most of the time for most of you it will be dry which is great news if you have any outdoor plants. —— any plans outside. and it is going to be warm as well. a few degrees higher than normal. there could be an easterly breeze to make it feel cooler in the east. but a lot of positives over the weekend at the moment. as they are now and over the next few days, sunshine and showers is the name of the game. we have got plenty of showers at the moment, particularly across northern and western areas of the country. the splashes of blue on the chart. south and east, a dry start, chilly start
6:49 am
across east anglia and the south—east, but it should warm up with sunny spells. cloud about increasing through the day, showers developing as they worked south and east. some will become heavy and thundery. fewershowers east. some will become heavy and thundery. fewer showers across the south, but they will be slow—moving with a gentle breeze and in between the sunshine it should feel pleasantly warm. it would not be a bank holiday weekend without a bit ofjeopardy! put the bunting out, bring it in! thank you! last night, viewers were treated to a special, one off bbc documentary, featuring her majesty as we've never seen her before. it was fantastic. beautiful footage. ahead of her platinum jubilee, �*the unseen queen' explored hundreds of private home movies shot by the royal family over the last 90 years. it is well worth watching on iplayer if you have not seen it. among them, were memories made on board the royal yacht britannia,
6:50 am
and breakfast'sjohn maguire is on board for us this morning. he is ona he is on a vip position, seem to be on board. —— soon to be on board. good morning. happyjubilee week and what better place to start, the royal yacht britannia, looking resplendent this morning, celebrating its own silverjubilee next year, 25 years of being a tourist attraction. but before that it was circumnavigating the globe. interesting stuff everywhere, there is a rolls—royce phantom, we will see a lot of those, and look at this hole. —— look at this hull, the rivets have been ground down so it is a smooth mirrorlike finish on the side. this is a statue of the policeman who kept the crew in line
6:51 am
backin policeman who kept the crew in line back in the day. they were known as yachties. we will take you on board, meet some yachties and some fun stories. 0ur cameras go on board the royal yacht britannia, now moored by tower bridge. for almost 45 years, she served as a floating royal palace, a global business centre, and a family refuge away from the permanent scrutiny of public life. her majesty's yacht britannia hosted kings, queens, presidents and prime ministers while the crew ensured everything ran to perfection, above and below decks. rear entrance to the engine room. former engineer rushy, everyone has a nickname in the royal navy, of course, is showing us around. and here we are inside the mechanical palace of the royal yacht. because although she was a floating palace for the royal family,
6:52 am
this was our cathedral down here. the engines haven't run for years but when they did, nothing was left to chance as the order came down from the bridge to set sail. and we were waiting for a telephone call from the bridge that says, obey then. you know at that point the royal family are on board. and she's just about 30 foot up there. you cannot imagine the feeling. you can't see her, the feeling of all of a sudden the responsibility now for the safety and security of the royal family has come within this family. so we were really, i was the queen's chauffer without eyes. ijust did what the bridge told me. but we got her to the church on time.
6:53 am
out of all the gauges, dials and warning lights, rushy reckons this instrument, the inclinometer, which says if the ship is level, is the most important in the engine room. especially challenging if guests gathered on one side of the ship to watch the royal marines band. all these people are at a cocktail party. so when they go on the upper deck, each and every one of them is a spirit level because they have got a glass. so you can't afford them to put it down, even her majesty has got a glass. so you can't bluff it. if you're not perpendicular, everyone will know. in the state dining room, these days available for hire and laid up for dinner, we find former steward peter. it's not that he works here any more, he just can't resist making sure everything is shipshape. he recalls how the crew, known as yachties, would have to set up and dismantle functions in a matter of minutes. so you would have to bring the furniture down past the stairs, and nine times out of ten the queen always used to, when i was there,
6:54 am
would sit on the stairs after a long evening and go, "ah!", and talk to herlady in waiting. it was quite funny, there were many a time i had to ask her, "excuse me, your majesty, would you mind moving, i have to bring the chairs down". "0h, am i in the way?" yes! and it was that sort of rapport, but within 20 minutes it would be all back in the right place ready to start again. keeping the crew fit and healthy were the cooks, the medics and the pti, the physical training instructor. george explained how they made the most of limited space with an ingenious take on tug—of—war. there would be a team here which was the port side, and you would have the rope which would be laid up here, and then it would go round the capstan, here, across here, to the capstan, and then down here you would have your opposition. so they're sort next to each other? so you're throwing abuse at each otherfrom either side. and sometimes there would be a royal ringer.
6:55 am

survivors of a deadly fairground accident in south—west london will plant a tree today to remember the victims. it's now 50 years since the big dipper roller—coaster crashed in battersea park, killing five children and injuring more than a dozen. there's now a campaign for a permanent memorial. the mayor said he's in talks with wandsworth council. i know from other memorials i have been involved in, it's a place you could go to just to reflect, to think, to spend time with others, to commemorate this awful tragedy. but also its a reminder of the importance of health and safety, to make sure we get things right. we also need to educate londoners about this tragedy almost 50 years ago. it's feared many people in temporary accomodation are "trapped" in their situation due to a shortage of affordable homes. a three—year study by the charity crisis suggests almost half of those in need of housing remained homeless despite seeking help from their council. there are calls for more social homes.
6:59 am
the government says it's invested more than £11 billion on affordable housing. the sale of chelsea football club is expected to be completed today. its after the government and premier league approved the takeover worth more than four billion pounds. chelsea was put up for sale in march before its owner roman abramovich was sanctioned over his links to the russian president vladimir putin. drivers are being warned to expect long delays on some routes during thejubilee bank holiday period as many head off for a break. the motoring group the rac estimates nearly 20 million journeys are being planned betwen wednesday and sunday. the advice is to set off before 6am or after 3pm. well, if you're heading out on public transport this morning, there are a few problems to watch out for. severe delays on the circle line and a part suspension
7:00 am
on the district and hammersmith and city lines. 0nto the weather now with elizabeth rizzini. hello, good morning. lots of dry weather in the forecast as we head through the next few days or so across the capital, but there will be some showers at times. notably so today and tomorrow. this morning, it's locally quite a chilly start to the day, temperatures having dropped right back into mid single figures for many of us last night. some early brightness, some sunshine around this morning. we will start to see the cloud building, low pressure is over us, there will be some showers forming as the daytime heating gets going. some of those showers through the afternoon could turn out to be heavy and they could be quite slow moving as well so they could last for some time. the winds are light, temperatures will once again for most of us peak in the mid—teens in celsius. 0vernight tonight, a rather messy picture. some showers at times, some areas of cloud, long clear spells. temperatures again dropping back into single figures as we head into tuesday. tuesday it will start to feel a little warmer, but again expect to see some showers as we head through the afternoon. lots of dry weather, on wednesday and indeed on thursday,
7:01 am
for the start of thejubilee bank holiday weekend. there could be some showers moving in from the south, though, so do keep an eye on the forecast. that's it from me. bye for now. good morning. welcome to breakfast withjon kay and nina warhurst. 0ur headlines today: fall back! an emergency meeting in paris as the uk calls for an investigation into the treatment of liverpool fans at the champions league final. president biden meets grieving families in texas amid anger at the slow police response to last week's school shooting in which 19 children and two teachers were killed. nottingham forest return to the premier league. after 23 years away, the two—time european champions are back in the top flight of english football after beating huddersfield at wembley.
7:02 am
and ross kemp will tell us why we should be knocking on our neighbours' doors for this year's thank you day. plus i will take a look at the weather including thejubilee weekend forecast which is looking promising but for the next few days it's a day of sunshine and at times heavy showers. it's monday 30th may. our main story is that the french government will hold an emergency meeting today with uefa and other officials, to examine what went wrong at the champions league final on saturday. there were chaotic scenes before and after the match after french police repeatedly fired tear gas and pepper spray at liverpool fans waiting to get into the stadium. the uk's culture secretary nadine dorries has called for an investigation into what happened, as tim muffett reports. fall back!
7:03 am
in the countdown to kick—off, this was the situation facing many fans on saturday night. real madrid's 1—0 victory over liverpool at the stade de france has been largely overshadowed by what went on outside the ground. it was just... the only word i can think of is chaos. we were patiently trying to queue. and then we'd be pushed by the police and kettled against railings, against the wall. and then pepper spray had come out and i was completely disorientated, didn't know what was happening with all the crowds that were there as well. there were children crying. there were grown men who were kind of shouting out that they needed help. this nine—year—old boy was one of those who suffered the after—effects of tear gas. many liverpool fans say the policing was shambolic and heavy—handed. there was no communication. we weren't told if the gate was going to open, when it was going to open.
7:04 am
it wasjust chaotic and actually it was a disgrace and it was very, very dangerous. it was shambolic. it was dangerous and hostile - and one of the worst atmospheres i've ever experienced. no football fan should ever experience that. at a blue ribbon event. uefa said that turnstiles became blocked because thousands of liverpool fans arrived with fake tickets. footage also show some people climbing overfences, but it's not clear whether they're liverpool fans or not. today, the french sports ministry will host a meeting with uefa, the french football association, stadium officials and police. it says it wants to draw lessons from the event. the culture secretary, nadine dorries, has called for a formal investigation. she described the footage and descriptions from fans as deeply concerning. "i urge uefa to launch a formal investigation into what went wrong and why", she said in a statement.
7:05 am
following their defeat in paris there was still a victory parade in liverpool yesterday, the club having won both the fa cup and league cup this season, a positive end to what had been a dispiriting weekend for the team and its fans. tim muffett, bbc news. we'll be hearing from fans who attended the match throughout the morning. to get a first—hand account of what exactly they saw and what these meetings might lead to later today. the us presidentjoe biden has promised to turn "pain into action" during a visit to the texan town of uvalde where nineteen children and two teachers were killed in america's latest mass shooting. the president and the first lady placed white roses at a memorial for the victims, before meeting families and survivors. from texas, our north america correspondent, barbara plett usher, reports. do something!
7:06 am
the commander in chief was visiting a community in shock, devastated by loss. "do something, do something" the crowd chanted as he left a church service. "we will, we will", he responded. his only public remarks on the trip. it is the hardest visit a president has to make, especially when the victims are so young. outside the school, mr biden and his wifejill paused to recognise each of those murdered while cowering on the floor of their classroom. 19 children and two teachers. later, they met privately with the families. a bouquet of flowers added to the mound of remembrance that seeks to dampen the horror by honouring the dead. but the police response to the shooting is now under review by the justice department. the rampage began when the teenage gunman entered the school through a back door, armed with a high—powered rifle. children as young as nine were trapped with him for an hour before security forces
7:07 am
finally stormed in. this small community has pulled together to face an unspeakable tragedy. but the political environment is difficult. there's a fierce debate about how to stop such attacks. the president wants to tighten gun laws and faces strong partisan opposition, especially in texas. this is, after all, gun country. there are mixed feelings about mr biden's visit. i don't know if it can make any difference, actually. i think that as a nation, we'rejust very divided. but i think that in a time of crisis, itjust... it's great for leaders to show unity. we just need to grieve. we just... come here and give us hope for tomorrow. but don't tell us politically what we need to do. most of all, the families don't want their pain to be drawn into the political disputes. patricia castanon is lost in a fog of grief at the death of her niece, annabelle. she was happy, smiley.
7:08 am
this is how she was with me. there's no words for me to say. she was just a good person. we know that the president is coming to visit. do you think that will help? no. why do you say that? because he can't bring her back. he can't bring her back. he can't bring none of them back. and nobody can. he can't bring them back. and he's struggling to protect others. his biggest obstacle is how to prevent this from happening again. this is the second time in a month that president biden has made a visit to console a community recovering from a mass shooting. and he finds it very distressing and frustrating. and here, of course, they're facing another difficult week as they prepare to begin burying their loved ones. barbara plett usher, bbc news, uvalde, texas. ukraine's president volodymyr zelensky has visited troops in the kharkiv region, on the country's battered
7:09 am
eastern front line. it's his first official trip outside the capital since the russian invasion began. let's speak to our correspondent, joe inwood. what does this tell us, the fact that president zelensky felt able to get sound outside of kyiv and visit the second city? it get sound outside of kyiv and visit the second city?— the second city? it tells us that the second city? it tells us that the battle _ the second city? it tells us that the battle for _ the second city? it tells us that the battle for kharkiv, - the second city? it tells us that the battle for kharkiv, if- the second city? it tells us that the battle for kharkiv, if not i the battle for kharkiv, if not completely over, has gone in ukraine's favour. go back a couple of weeks and the city was under almost continuous bombardment but then we started to see ukrainian forces on the counteroffensive pushing the russians all the way back to the international border and while kharkiv is not completely free of russian artillery, there were more barrages yesterday, the fact that president zelensky whose personal security is essential to the country and its war effort tells
7:10 am

7:11 am
it's quite a moment when they won it. let's check in with matt and i look at the weather that's in store. good morning, both, a new weekend a bright start to the south and east where it has been quite chilly so a touch of frost earlier in parts of suffolk and norfolk but a different story further north, more cloud, outside wigan it is a soggy start, showers have been packing into north—west england and wales and parts of scotland and northern ireland. few showers in the south at the moment so most of you will have a dry commute with a fair bit of cloud but some sunshine but overall or cloud than sunshine and those shower clouds will bubble up more in the afternoon so some heavy and thundery showers, not moving a great deal because there will be a gentle breeze but if you get caught under the showers the south they could be stuck with you for a while. parts
7:12 am
will be dry all day long, parts of kent and is london and essex staying dry and in the north showers will come and go but slow moving, and not especially warm in the cloudier moments, 17 degrees that are high. tonight we have plenty of cloud with a few showers but with the bright longest across parts of scotland, cooler here tonight which leads into a cool start to tuesday but tuesday looks like another day of sunshine and showers, fewer showers across western areas with more turning dry and a bit warmer. thank you, matt, and we will have a fulljubilee update later on. as if waiting for your driving test wasn't scary enough... learner drivers are still facing major delays to book their driving tests, with cities including london, birmingham and manchester, having no slots available
7:13 am
for at least six months. just to extend the tension! the body responsible for examinations, the dvsa, say they have introduced further measures to try and help resolve the issue — they include reducing the average waiting time from the current 1a weeks, to nine weeks by the end of the year. which is still a long time. they're suggesting recruiting a further 300 examiners, and widening the hours that testing can take place, which they say has increased capacity by more than 100,000 tests in the past year. we can talk more about this with ashley neil, a liverpool—based driving instructor and also broadcaster and former top gear host steve berry. good morning to you both. we will start with you, ashley, so you are seeing the front line of driving test. what is the main blockage? people booking tests before they are ready is _ people booking tests before they are ready is a _ people booking tests before they are ready is a big thing. what they also tend to _

7:21 am
to respond to serious incidents in england and wales. information requests indicate that officers are more than three minutes slower to attend the most urgent emergencies than six years ago. research also shows that the number of recorded crimes being solved has fallen for the last seven consecutive years. the policing minister kit malthouse says the government is committed to improving the responsiveness of local police. our special correspondent ed thomas reports. three, four, five, six, seven. it's the perfect storm. i don't think there's a point in ringing the police any more, because there's nothing being done. the windows smashed, everything thrown all over my house. police are solving fewer recorded crimes. they are taking longer to respond. they got put through one morning. how many windows? all of them. and when did the police come? they didn't. leaving the public losing faith. do you have confidence in the police to come out? do i heck! why? waste of time.
7:22 am
they come about six hours later when they have all gone. this is in kent. it was a ball bearing probably eight or ten millimetres. it was pretty much shot straight through. this is where it hit me on the leg. where were you? sitting in the garden. we spoke to half a dozen neighbours who all said the street is being tormented by teenagers. going through double glazed glass, you can really do some injury to someone's skull. after repeated calls to the police, many here said officers don't turn up at all. i reported it, nothing came of it, that was it. i have just kept it since. at what point do you then go and say, enough is enough? is it when a child dies? levels of crime have been going down over the past decade but our research shows that the proportion of recorded crimes being solved has fallen by ao%. we have also learned that police are taking longer to arrive at emergency call—outs. forces are now 25% slower to arrive at urgent incidents than six years ago.
7:23 am
one, two, three, four. we move north. we move north to leigh. this is robert's teenage grandson being attacked on a bus in february. he says months after the attack, the police have failed to visit the family. what is your reaction to that? considering i pay their wages, really annoyed. and at the end of the day, that is what the country sees, it is getting worse, and worse, and worse. this is the actual footage of them attacking me. we then met stephen. being kicked all over the floor, and hit me bad, knuckle dusters. he says it took police three days to respond this beating. and then it got worse. this is the state they have left my house, the windows smashed. if the police would have done it from the start, none of this would have happened. he has been repeatedly burgled. that is my son's bedroom, that. this is actually my son's bedroom. he says the police and forensic teams have not been out to visit for two of the burglaries. how would you describe the police response to the burglaries? atrocious, atrocious.
7:24 am
absolutely atrocious. i'm at breaking point. there's nothing. it's my kids, my home, my car, everything. it's gone. i've got nothing at all. ijust need the police to help me and they won't. theyjust won't help me. what would you say to the police? please, get off your bum and help people in need. i'm in need of help. i need some help. we have also learned that police are not turning up for sexual assaults and domestic violence incidents. one woman who says she was assaulted by an ex—partner in front of her two and four year old children was told no one could visit her until the following morning. if officers had attended, they may have seen the man return again later that evening. i could actually see my car, my stolen car. when michelle's car was stolen, desperate, she turned detective. they took me to the station to take a statement. what they did actually say was to actually go on to facebook because that is the best chance of you finding it. eventually, she was sent this cctv
7:25 am
which located her car. but still, officers wouldn't help. doing all the job for you, got the address of where that car is. and you're still not doing anything. and we would be on the phone to the police at least three or four times every night saying, this is where my car is. one night, she followed her stolen car. she was confronted by a man with a crowbar before escaping. the next day, it was found abandoned. you just think, who do you go to if you are in trouble? the home office says it's committed to improving the responsiveness of local police, and the public should have confidence that forces will do everything in their power to solve and prevent crime. ed thomas, bbc news. lots of you getting in touch this morning about driving tests and people saying test centres around the country have closed and that is

keep it spotless. the rear of the ship, very much the royal quarters, here is the grand staircase, the banqueting room through there and we will bring you through to the state drawing room at the back so you can imagine the kings and queens and prime ministers and presidents who would have been on board and met her majesty as a yacht sailed around the world. all the clocks on board still set one minute past the ray. that is the moment at which her majesty left the moment at which her majesty left the ship for the final time when it was decommissioned in decommissioned in portsmouth in 1997. we are in leith near edinburgh where that ship is moored, it's been a tourist attraction for the last 20 years and will celebrate its silverjubilee next year and lots of family photos on the furniture, this famous portrait above the fireplace, all sorts of facts and stories. the

7:29 am
of the importance of health and safety, to make sure we get things right. we also need to educate londoners about this tragedy almost 50 years ago. it's feared many people in temporary accomodation are trapped in their situation due to a shortage of affordable homes. a three—year study by the charity crisis suggests almost half of those in need of housing remained homeless despite seeking help from their council. there calls for more social homes. the government says it's invested more than £11 billion. the sale of chelsea football club is expected to be completed today. it's after the government and premier league approved the takeover. chelsea was put up for sale in march because of roman abramovich's links to the russian president. drivers are being warned to expect long delays during thejubilee bank holiday. the motoring group the rac estimates nearly 20 million journeys are being planned. the advice is to set off
7:30 am
before 6am or after three. if you're heading out on public transport this morning, there are a few problems to watch out for. severe delays on the circle line and a part suspension on the district and hammersmith and city lines. onto the weather now with elizabeth rizzini. hello, good morning. lots of dry weather in the forecast as we head through the next few days or so across the capital, but there will be some showers at times. notably so today and tomorrow. this morning, it's locally quite a chilly start to the day, temperatures having dropped right back into mid single figures for many of us last night. some early brightness, some sunshine around this morning. we will start to see the cloud building, low pressure is over us, there will be some showers forming as the daytime heating gets going. some of those showers through the afternoon could turn out to be heavy and they could be quite slow moving as well so they could last for some time. the winds are light, temperatures will once again for most of us peak in the mid—teens in celsius. overnight tonight, a rather messy picture.
7:31 am
some showers at times, some areas of cloud, long clear spells. temperatures again dropping back into single figures as we head into tuesday. tuesday it will start to feel a little warmer, but again expect to see some showers as we head through the afternoon. lots of dry weather, on wednesday and indeed on thursday, for the start of thejubilee bank holiday weekend. there could be some showers moving in from the south, though, so do keep an eye on the forecast. just a reminder we want to know how you're celebrating thejubilee. let us know by emailing us and we might even come and film you! that's it from me. i'm back in an hour. hello, this is breakfast withjon kay and nina warhurst. just after half past seven, thank you forjoining us. we are

we are a big football club, we know that, full of history and tradition, we stand on that proud, but i've always said, let's try and create a next positive chapter and we have managed to do that. celtic won the women's scottish cup, and with it, ensured that glasgow city finished a season trophyless for the first time in 14 years. it finished 3—2 at tynecastle, with izzy atkinson grabbing the winning goal in extra—time. they beat the same opposition to lift the league cup earlier in the season. too many mistakes according to ferrari's charles leclerc, after a series of errors from his team led to red bull's sergio perez winning the monaco grand prix. leclerc started from pole, but dropped from first to fourth over four laps in a rain affected grand prix. red bull capitilised on ferrari's poor strategy, with perez moving into the lead. crucially championship leader max verstappen finished third, ahead of leclerc, which means
7:44 am
the red bull driver extends his lead to nine points. lewis hamilton started and finished eighth. rafa nadal took five sets to get past felix auger aliassime at the french open. nadal lost the opening set but roared back to win the next two. the canadian who is coached by nadal�*s uncle toni made sure the match went to five sets with nadal winning the final set 6—3. it sets up a mouthwatering quarter final against novak djokovic who swept aside argentina's diego schwartzmann in straight sets. american teenager coco gauff has equalled her best run at roland garros by reaching the last eight. belgian elise mertens was seen off in straight sets. she'll play fellow american sloane stephens next. now, one man who is not at the french open is a certain sir andy murray. he's a little busy elsewhere according to his latest post on instagram.

and a sign that things could be turning drier and warmer as we head towards thejubilee turning drier and warmer as we head towards the jubilee weekend turning drier and warmer as we head towards thejubilee weekend but for the next few days it's a story of sunshine and showers, but some of those showers could be heavy and thundery. it's monday 30th may. our main story is that the french government will hold an emergency meeting today with uefa and other officials, to examine what went wrong at the champions league final on saturday. there were chaotic scenes before and after the match after french police repeatedly fired tear gas and pepper spray at liverpool fans waiting to get into the stadium. the uk's culture secretary nadine dorries has called for an investigation into what happened as tim muffett reports. fallback! fallback! in the countdown to kick—off, this was the situation facing many fans on saturday night.
8:03 am
real madrid's i—0 victory over liverpool at the stade de france has been largely overshadowed by what went on outside the ground. it was just... the only word i can think of is chaos. we were patiently trying to queue. and then we'd be pushed by the police and kettled against railings and against the wall. and then pepper spray had come out and i was completely disorientated, didn't know what was happening with all the crowds that were there as well. there were children crying. there were grown men who were kind of shouting out that they needed help. this nine—year—old boy was one of those who suffered the after—effects of tear gas. many liverpool fans say the policing was shambolic and heavy—handed. there was no communication. we weren't told if the gate was going to open, when it was going to open. it wasjust chaotic and actually it was a disgrace and it was very, very dangerous. it was shambolic.
8:04 am
it was dangerous and hostile i and one of the worst atmospheres i've ever experienced, and | no football fan should ever experience that - at a blue ribbon event. uefa said that turnstiles became blocked because thousands of liverpool fans arrived with fake tickets. footage also show some people climbing overfences, but it's not clear whether they're liverpool fans or not. today, the french sports ministry will host a meeting with uefa, the french football association, stadium officials and police. it says it wants to draw lessons from the event. the culture secretary, nadine dorries, has called for a formal investigation. she described the footage and descriptions from fans as deeply concerning. "i urge uefa to launch a formal investigation into what went wrong and why", she said in a statement. following their defeat in paris there was still a victory parade in liverpool yesterday, the club having won both the fa cup
8:05 am
and league cup this season, a positive end to what had been a dispiriting weekend for the team and its fans. tim muffett, bbc news. the us presidentjoe biden has promised to turn "pain into action" during a visit to the texan town of uvalde where 19 children and two teachers were killed in america's latest mass shooting. the president and the first lady placed white roses at a memorial for the victims, before meeting families and survivors. from texas, our north america correspondent, barbara plett usher, reports. do something! the commander in chief was visiting a community in shock, devastated by loss. "do something, do something" the crowd chanted as he left a church service. "we will, we will", he responded. his only public remarks on the trip. it is the hardest visit a president has to make, especially
8:06 am
when the victims are so young. outside the school, mr biden and his wifejill paused to recognise each of those murdered while cowering on the floor of their classroom. 19 children and two teachers. later, they met privately with the families. a bouquet of flowers added to the mound of remembrance that seeks to dampen the horror by honouring the dead. but the police response to the shooting is now under review by the justice department. the rampage began when the teenage gunman entered the school through a back door, armed with a high—powered rifle. children as young as nine were trapped with him for an hour before security forces finally stormed in. this small community has pulled together to face an unspeakable tragedy. but the political environment is difficult. there's a fierce debate about how to stop such attacks. the president wants to tighten gun laws and faces strong partisan opposition, especially in texas. this is, after all, gun country.
8:07 am
there are mixed feelings about mr biden's visit. i don't know if it can make any difference, actually. i think that as a nation, we'rejust very divided. but i think that in a time of crisis, itjust... it's great for leaders to show unity. we just need to grieve. we just... come here and give us hope for tomorrow. but don't tell us politically what we need to do. most of all, the families don't want their pain to be drawn into the political disputes. patricia castanon is lost in a fog of grief at the death of her niece, annabelle. she was happy, smiley. this is how she was with me. there's no words for me to say. she was just a good person. we know that the president is coming to visit. do you think that will help? no. why do you say that? because he can't bring her back. he can't bring her back.
8:08 am
he can't bring none of them back. and nobody can. he can't bring them back, and he's struggling to protect others. his biggest obstacle is how to prevent this from happening again. this is the second time in a month that president biden has made a visit to console a community recovering from a mass shooting. and he finds it very distressing and frustrating. and here, of course, they're facing another difficult week as they prepare to begin burying their loved ones. barbara plett usher, bbc news, uvalde, texas. the ukrainian president volodymyr zelensky has visited troops in the eastern kharkiv region. it's his first official trip outside the capital, kyiv, since russia invaded in february. meawhile, fighting in the ukrainian city of severodonetsk has intensified. russia has made seizing the whole eastern donbas region a key aim of the war. the ukrainian band who won this year's eurovision song contest, kalush orchestra, have sold their trophy at auction
8:09 am
for more than £700,000 to raise money for the war in ukraine. the sale coincided with the band's appearance at a charity concert for ukraine in berlin. the funds will be used to buy drones and a ground control system for the army. here's matt with a look at this morning's weather. what have you got behind you they i have a graphics system which has decided it doesn't like me this morning. i will try my best, very futuristic but it gives me a few moments to show where the radar is showing for the rain is, lots of showers across the rain is, lots of showers across the north, one or two i stated ones around the cloud, it starts to with sunny scale spells, a chilly start but at least here we have sunshine but at least here we have sunshine but the showers to the north and
8:10 am
west will attract south and east as west will attract south and east as we go through today and that means we go through today and that means we will see showers just about any work throughout the day. winds will be light so the showers are slow moving and some could be heavy and thundery. between the showers we have the sunshine, temperatures of 11-17 have the sunshine, temperatures of 11—17 so cool forthe have the sunshine, temperatures of 11—17 so cool for the stage in may ii—i7 so cool for the stage in may but winds will be largely lied and as we go into the afternoon anyone could see a shower, overnight the showers will start to fade and then tomorrow we have more sunshine and showers. the graphics are now showing where the showers are, some could be heavy and thundery, he we saw looks for the afternoon pick up from school, for some of you it is half term but as we head towards evening parts of east anglia will stay dry, showers frequent across northern england, easing in northern ireland but more to come in scotland. the full forecast coming up ireland but more to come in scotland. the full forecast coming up later ireland but more to come in
8:11 am
scotland. the full forecast coming up later on. you might be upset that your machine wasn't working but the people of the sort dean have never had so much coverage! good morning, salt dean. last month we spoke to the bbc�*s global health correspondent tulip mazumdar ahead of her documentary about her experience of miscarriage. since then a number of families have been in touch to share their stories of loss, including one couple who were forced to keep their baby's remains in their fridge because a&e staff said they weren't able to store them safely. tulip has been to meet laura and lawrence, and just to warn viewers you may find some of the details in this report upsetting. there's a tiny blanket for the baby and then a teddy that you can put in the coffin. we've got a sprig of leaves that we took from our garden. and then the only other thing

in here, we've got the baby's ashes. these precious items, a memory box for laura and lawrence's baby. some comfort in a time of utter despair. it's been just two months since the couple suffered a late miscarriage 15 weeks into their pregnancy. it happened after they were sent home from hospital, having been told their baby no longer had a heartbeat. there were no beds available, the hospital said, for laura to give birth there. i woke up in really quite had pain. i felt a lot of pressure. and so i ran upstairs to the bathroom and that's where i delivered the baby. i looked down and canjust see a mass in the water. and so i scooped it out, still assuming that it was going to be something else. and at that point, i realised
8:13 am
that it was a baby. i realised it was my baby, obviously. and you just think, obviously it's not alive, and so i scooped it out, put it in the sink and realised it was a baby boy. and at that point, i'd screamed and lawrence had come upstairs and ijust was in such a panic. i just went up to the bathroom, closed the door and said, do not go in there. the couple called 999 but were advised that this wasn't an emergency. and so they placed their baby's remains in a box and went into a&e, which they say was chaos. it got to midnight and we just thought, we've got a decision to make here. there's no—one at this hospital who's willing to take charge of our baby. there's no—one who seems to know what's going on and it's been in a hot room
8:14 am
for nearly five hours now. so we decided together that i would go home. so i took the box to the entrance of the hospital and got a taxi and took him home, cleared out some space in our fridge and put him there. as harrowing as it is to talk about what happened, the couple say they're speaking out to try and ensure this doesn't happen to anyone else. when you were sitting in that a&e waiting room, at that point, you just felt like there's no safety net, when things go wrong with the pregnancy, you know, there are not the systems in place to help you, and even with all the staff and the experts and they're working really hard with the best will in the world, the processes are so flawed that itjust felt like we've been tipped into hell. a statement from lewisham
8:15 am
and greenwich nhs trust, where laura was treated, says: "we are deeply sorry and offer our sincerest condolences to miss brody and her partner for the tragic loss of their baby in these traumatic experiences." it goes on to say a full investigation is under way to understand where failings in care may have occurred so that any necessary changes and improvements can be made. it's beyond sad, really. it's unbearable. there should be an available cold place. there simply should be, and it should be, if it's not in the morgue, there probably ought to be something in a&e and there ought to be something in the maternity department or in the gynae department, somewhere where pregnancy remains or these tiny little babies can be safely and respectfully and carefully stored with clear labelling. why isn't that happening yet? i don't know, but it isn't happening. we're talking about one case
8:16 am
and we're talking about one trust. and i'm sure it happens in more than one place, more than one trust. so we have to be careful not to assume from this case that everything is awful. there is good advice and guidance around. and at the same time, it's also about ensuring the staff have the time and the space to work through that. the importance of pregnancy loss care is increasingly being recognised. this is a special cot i for babies that have died. here at birmingham women's hospital, there's a specialist suite in a side room on the maternity ward for women who are having a late miscarriage or stillbirth. the hospital is also starting work on a first of its kind in the uk bereavement centre, specialising in care forfamilies, including those experiencing pregnancy loss. this site is going to i be our woodland house. they will be able to come back
8:17 am
and see their baby there, i if they want to go home. we'll be able to hold follow—up appointments with doctors. i we'll be able to look after our families going through early. pregnancy loss who want to come back in and collect their pregnancy, - maybe for a little burial at home or a funeral. . amongst the smell of fresh roses and a feeling of being close to family, laura and lawrence can remember and grieve. this is the crematorium where my grandparents' ashes were scattered and their plaque's here. and we were thinking of putting the baby's ashes here as well. itjust gives what happens some permanence and it's something tangible as otherwise itjust feels like everything evaporates and it never really happened and the baby's just forgotten, and all of this heartbreak is just for nothing. we just felt like the baby's already been so alone. and this way, at least it's near us. and it's near family.
8:18 am
tulip mazumdar, bbc news. and we send our best wishes to lawrence and laura for sharing their story with us this morning. we can now talk to vicki jennings, who has experienced two miscarriages, and zoe clark—coates, who is the founder of the charity saying goodbye and co—chair of the government's pregnancy loss review. good morning to you. hearing the experiences there, just horrific but what we were interested in reading around the subject is there is no uniformity or best practice. it depends which trust you are under when this happens. yes. depends which trust you are under when this happens. yes, absolutely, the tra a ed when this happens. yes, absolutely, the tragedy of _ when this happens. yes, absolutely, the tragedy of what _ when this happens. yes, absolutely, the tragedy of what this _ when this happens. yes, absolutely, the tragedy of what this couple i when this happens. yes, absolutely, the tragedy of what this couple have | the tragedy of what this couple have gone to vote sadly isn't isolated. so many people go through similar things every day and we need to see a change, we need excellent care

8:20 am
7% of families are asked to do this and that is not good enough. we shouldn't be asking parents to do such a heartbreaking thing which adds to their trauma. i such a heartbreaking thing which adds to their trauma.— such a heartbreaking thing which adds to their trauma. i suppose if ou are adds to their trauma. i suppose if you are going _ adds to their trauma. i suppose if you are going to _ adds to their trauma. i suppose if you are going to get _ adds to their trauma. i suppose if you are going to get change, i adds to their trauma. i suppose if you are going to get change, we | adds to their trauma. i suppose if i you are going to get change, we have to talk about, vicki, and that is why you wanted to talk about it, it's painful but in your own time and whoever you want to, tell us what happened to you. me and whoever you want to, tell us what happened to you.— and whoever you want to, tell us what happened to you. me and my husband have _ what happened to you. me and my husband have suffered _ what happened to you. me and my husband have suffered two - husband have suffered two miscarriages so far. we had our first_ miscarriages so far. we had our first in— miscarriages so far. we had our first in march last year. we booked in for— first in march last year. we booked in for a _ first in march last year. we booked in for a private scan with no idea anything — in for a private scan with no idea anything was wrong and when we went for that— anything was wrong and when we went for that scan they said i'm sorry, it was— for that scan they said i'm sorry, it was supposed to be a ten week pregnancy— it was supposed to be a ten week pregnancy but she said this looks like it's_ pregnancy but she said this looks like it's what's called a blighted ovum _ like it's what's called a blighted ovum or— like it's what's called a blighted ovum or an embryonic pregnancy which means_ ovum or an embryonic pregnancy which means no— ovum or an embryonic pregnancy which means no embryo has developed in the

who were both at the match. we will speak to you at the moment, ian. to start with you, what are the things that are going to stick in your mind, the memories it will take from what should have been one of the greatest nights? it from what should have been one of the greatest nights?— the greatest nights? it should have been. they were _ the greatest nights? it should have been. they were children _ the greatest nights? it should have been. they were children there i the greatest nights? it should have| been. they were children there who would have been at their first champions league final who should have had the time of their life but i will remember their faces streaming with tears because they were suffering from the effects of tear gas from a brutal police force who came with the idea that they were there to violently disperse travel which never occurred so they decided to because, in my view. the fads were funnelled towards turnstile which were close to a half hours before kick off with no explanation, no discussion at all. so people were forced to queue with
8:36 am
no access to a bathroom or water for three hours in 2a degrees heat. they had tickets to come to the football, they arrived early to take photos, be part of the apposite they were treated like animals, beat with shields. people were forced into a crash as crowds swelled —— people forced into a crush. this was an immense failure from the authorities, the uefa, and the french state which utterly failed in its duty of care towards anybody who ended its country. hat its duty of care towards anybody who ended its country.— ended its country. not easy to keep our cool ended its country. not easy to keep your cool under— ended its country. not easy to keep your cool under the _ ended its country. not easy to keep your cool under the pressure i ended its country. not easy to keep your cool under the pressure if i ended its country. not easy to keep your cool under the pressure if you | your cool under the pressure if you are being provoked, you feel, but how did the fans respond in your view? i how did the fans respond in your view? .. how did the fans respond in your view? ., , . ., . , view? i thought the behaviour was impeccable _ view? i thought the behaviour was impeccable around _ view? i thought the behaviour was impeccable around me. _ view? i thought the behaviour was impeccable around me. people i view? i thought the behaviour was i impeccable around me. people were rh, they were trying to get a game of football that they had arrived

french authorities never really wanted to host the game, it was a vanity project from the french president who was up for election and he decided they would have this big event that would go without any security issues, because they have got the olympics in two weeks. —— two years as well. they did know —— it doesn't look like they did any preparatory work. this police brutality has been going on a fair bit since football fans have been able to enter the stand again, but also against things like union workers and antiracism campaigners. and this to be was a continuation of the french state's increasing harassment of regular people. this was certainly more than just the liverpool football club and the champions league final but more than football, this is a realfailure and a continuation of the failure of the

8:43 am
the championship play—off final yesterday, the rich with the ball, worth £170 million. —— they richest game in football. and the romance around this match as well. nottingham forest are back in the premier league. the long wait is over for the two time european champions. 23 years they spent in the championship and league one, but yesterday they finally won promotion back to the top division of english football. they beat huddersfield 1—0 at wembley. an own goal from levi colwill was the decisive moment of the game. manager steve cooper only took over in september with the club bottom of the table. quite some turnaround in journey for them. celtic won the women's scottish cup, and with it, ensured that glasgow city finished a season trophyless for the first time in ia years. it finished 3—2 at tynecastle, with izzy atkinson grabbing the winning goal in extra—time. they beat the same opposition to lift the league cup earlier in the season.
8:44 am
too many mistakes according to ferrari's charles leclerc, after a series of errors from his team led to red bull's sergio perez winning the monaco grand prix. leclerc started from pole, but dropped from first to fourth over four laps in a rain affected grand prix. red bull capitilised on ferrari's poor strategy, with perez moving into the lead. crucially championship leader max verstappen finished third, ahead of leclerc, which means the red bull driver extends his lead to nine points. lewis hamilton started and finished eighth. tributes are being payed to the jockey lester piggott, who has died aged 86. with a career lasting almost 50 years, he rode more than 4,000 winners, the first coming at the age of 12. we're joined now by fellow jockey and friend of lester's, frankie dettori.
8:45 am
thank you forjoining us, frankie. it is fair to say that alacrity was a bit of an enigma, not many people got to know him but you did as a friend —— it is that the state that lester was an enigma. what was he like in a personal capacity because mckee was intimidating as a jockey in his heyday, i came from italy, funnily enough i never got to ride with him until later in life when he made his comeback when he was 5a. he made his comeback when he was 54. he: was a great. he had that aura around him and he was very intimidating. i used to be at going, i would pull his leg and crackjokes. i got to see the other side of him. he had a dry sense of humour. he was an amazing. it dry sense of humour. he was an amazinr. ,., , ~ dry sense of humour. he was an amazinr. , ~ i. amazing. it sounds like you connected _ amazing. it sounds like you connected well _ amazing. it sounds like you connected well on - amazing. it sounds like you connected well on a - amazing. it sounds like you i connected well on a personal amazing. it sounds like you - connected well on a personal level. i wonder what you're made of him when you managed to race against him, when he came back, what you

walking the plank! it is a visitor i walking the plank! it is a visitor attraction, and i am back to the left so people could get to the different tax. —— i am next to the lift. people can get to the different deck playback. look at this, these yachties will have scrubbed the decks and not. they come back once a year to do some maintenance but they get together to socialise, i was staying in the same hotel as them last night and they were socialising all right! let's take you to the bridge. one of the idiosyncrasies of the royal yacht is the skipper was always an admiral until the last person in charge who was a commodore. everything laid out, the emerald chair, two ships compasses, you have a back—up in case one fails. i look at all of
8:51 am
this brass, they call it the bright work, even in the engine room, everything is absolutely immaculate. it is a wonderful ship, not supposed to call it a ship, it is a yacht. it was a palace, an office, it is simply different things, a home away from home. let's give you a quick look round. vt! our cameras go on board the royal yacht britannia, now moored by tower bridge. for almost 45 years, she served as a floating royal palace, a global business centre, and a family refuge away from the permanent scrutiny of public life. her majesty's yacht britannia hosted kings, queens, presidents and prime ministers while the crew ensured everything ran to perfection, above and below decks. rear entrance to the engine room. former engineer rushy, everyone has a nickname in the royal navy, of course,
8:52 am
is showing us around. and here we are inside the mechanical palace of the royal yacht. because although she was a floating palace for the royal family, this was our cathedral down here. the engines haven't run for years but when they did, nothing was left to chance as the order came down from the bridge to set sail. and we were waiting for a telephone call from the bridge that says, obey then. you know at that point the royal family are on board. and she's just about 30 foot up there. you cannot imagine the feeling. you can't see her, but the feeling of all of a sudden the responsibility now for the safety and security of the royal family has come within this family. so we were really, i was the queen's chauffeur without eyes. ijust did what the bridge told me. but we got her to
8:53 am
the church on time. out of all the gauges, dials and warning lights, rushy reckons this instrument, the inclinometer, which says if the ship is level, is the most important in the engine room. especially challenging if guests gathered on one side of the ship to watch the royal marines band. all these people are at a cocktail party. so when they go on the upper deck, each and every one of them is a spirit level because they have got a glass. so you can't afford them to put it down, even her majesty has got a glass. so you can't bluff it. if you're not perpendicular, everyone will know. in the state dining room, these days available for hire and laid up for dinner, we find former steward peter. it's not that he works here any more, he just can't resist making sure everything is shipshape. he recalls how the crew, known as yachties, would have to set up and dismantle functions in a matter of minutes.
8:54 am
so you would have to bring the furniture down past the stairs, and nine times out of ten the queen always used to, when i was there, would sit on the stairs after a long evening and go, "ah!", and talk to herlady in waiting. it was quite funny, there were many a time i had to ask her, "excuse me, your majesty, would you mind moving, i have to bring the chairs down". "oh, am i in the way?" yes! and it was that sort of rapport, but within 20 minutes it would be all back in the right place ready to start again. keeping the crew fit and healthy were the cooks, the medics and the pti, the physical training instructor. george explained how they made the most of limited space with an ingenious take on tug—of—war. there would be a team here which was the port side, and you would have the rope which would be laid up here, and then it would go round the capstan, here, across here, to the capstan, and then down here you would have your opposition. so they're sort next to each other?
8:55 am
so you're throwing abuse at each otherfrom either side. the queen once described the royal yacht as a place where she could truly relax and, at the decommissioning in 1997, seemed visibly upset. since then, britannia was brought here to leith near edinburgh to become a tourist attraction. so now, the royal yacht that once took britain to the rest of the world has visitors from around the world coming to britannia. they say an army marches on its stomach and that ab does the same thing, we are withjeff the chef, the former leading cook. was it like serving on board the royal yacht? absolutely fantastic, it really was, it was a magical draft. and what i thoroughly enjoyed, just over eight years, i saw an awful lot of places,
8:56 am
