6:02 am
hundreds of miles away in ukraine, but the pinch is already being felt right here in the uk. bbc news has asked 4,000 adults across the uk how they're feeling about the cost of living. eight in ten of them said they are worried about it, with around two—thirds saying it's affecting their mental health. more than half say they have cut back on the food they're buying to cook at home and nearly two—thirds, 64%, are going out to eat in pubs or restaurants less often. petrol and household energy bills are clearly a big source of worry. half of the people we asked are using their car less frequently while seven in ten say they've turned off appliances in their homes. with prices rising at their fastest rate for a0 years, households budgets appear to be tightening, as our business correspondent emma simpson reports. look at hers, mummy! summertime�*s here, but for many, the living is far from easy. there's plenty to spend cash on at this birmingham park. a family favourite.
6:03 am
i don't want one, thank you. but many are cutting back. going to the pub less. just saving where i can. just have a few cans at home instead. i when you put the oven on, rather than just put one thing in there, you know, you do several things at the same time. we have to if we have to survive in this climate, you know, in this situation. at least the park is free. you've just got to get there. the diesel is absolutely crippling me. just coming up here i paid £1.93 a litre and compared to what it used to be, i can't go out as much as i used to. not a chance. using the car a bit less, maintaining it a bit less as well. and, yeah, looking for the yellow stickers at the supermarket. everywhere you go there are folk wondering how to make the sums add up. well, we never had to watch what we spent in terms - of on a weekly basis. now we're doing it on a daily basis. a few miles down the road, this school has decided to make school uniform and pe kit free
6:04 am
for all new children moving up from primary in the autumn. the basics of clothing and feeding your child, families are finding that challenging. i think, you know, it canjust be a throwaway comment where just last week a parent said to me, you know, at least i don't have to have the heating on any more. so the pressure�*s definitely gone up? absolutely, yeah. her pupils know about the pressures, too. we're not spending as much money as we need to, like, going out, but, like, my pocket money hasn't, so i'm happy for that. making sure the lights are off. turning the plugs l off at the switches. having to say no to some stuff because they can't afford all the things that i want. trying to have the good times, have things out, stays out, but try and keep the cost of those a bit smaller. rebecca's daughter, jess, will get the free uniform for september, and it all helps. itjust means that in the summer, we're going to be able to do a few
6:05 am
extra little trips out. so, yeah, things that we probably couldn't have done if we'd had - to fork out for the uniform. a glimpse of the cutback economy. for many, it's now about staying afloat and preparing for more turbulent times ahead. emma simpson, bbc news, birmingham. ben'sjust outside our studios here in salford. ben, you'll be bringing us much more on this throughout the morning. people are feeling in their homes and daily lives about the cost of living? and daily lives about the cost of livin: ? . and daily lives about the cost of livin? . ., , , , and daily lives about the cost of livin? . , , , living? yeah, absolutely, this is something _ living? yeah, absolutely, this is something which _ living? yeah, absolutely, this is something which is _ living? yeah, absolutely, this is something which is affecting - living? yeah, absolutely, this is| something which is affecting the decisions people are making every single day and on a gorgeous day like this the temptation is to go out and spend, do things, buy things, but the reality is people have less money to be able to do what they normally would and we are hearing about the cutbacks. we will be looking at the decision people are making about what they spend on food for example, and what they are
6:06 am
spending, how they are saving money on travel and transport. with people saying they are socialising less, the impact it's having on some of the impact it's having on some of the businesses, hospitality bars and restaurants around here, and also some really practical advice for you about how you can save money. just to get you one example now, buying in season is a very, very good way to save money. a lot of food is getting more expensive but these peaches for example, because they are now in season, they'd gone down in price from £10 a kilo to £4 a kilo. some other advice for you on ways to save on your weekly shop as well coming up a little late in the programme. well coming up a little late in the programme-— well coming up a little late in the rouramme. . , . programme. thanks very much. more with ou programme. thanks very much. more with you later— programme. thanks very much. more with you later on. _ programme. thanks very much. more with you later on. let's _ programme. thanks very much. more with you later on. let's bring - programme. thanks very much. more with you later on. let's bring you - with you later on. let's bring you up—to—date with other news. ukraine's bid tojoin the european union is expected to move a step forward today as senior officials in brussels look likely to approve the country as an official candidate for membership. in his nightly address, president zelensky said ukraine had never been closer to the eu. it comes after the leaders of germany, france and italy used a visit to kyiv
6:07 am
to announce their support for the country's application for candidacy. azadeh moshiri has this report. ukraine's president called it a truly historic day, describing a visit to kyiv by some of europe's most powerful leaders. from france, germany and italy, three of the eurozone's largest economies, as well as romania. and while president zelensky has grown accustomed to receiving politicians who wish to see the war first hand, this time he had clear demands — more weapons and shoring up support for ukraine's candidacy to the european union. translation: ukraine has felt the support of four powerful. european states at once, and in particular support for our movement to the european union. italy, romania, france and germany are with us. but up until this visit, president zelensky had criticised these leaders, arguing they weren't taking a tough enough stance with russia.
6:08 am
president macron was accused of being too soft with his words and chancellor scholz too slow in cutting off economic ties. perhaps that's why they were taken to irpin, a town decimated by russian shelling. at the end of the visit, france, germany and italy's leaders announced their support for ukraine's immediate candidate status. translation: all four of us, - we support the status of ukraine's candidacy for immediate accession to the european union. this status will be accompanied, we have all said, by a road map and also implies a consideration of the western balkan states and neighbouring states, in particular moldova. those caveats signalled the long road ahead for ukraine's accession to the bloc. all 27 member states must agree to its candidacy, and then negotiations would begin
6:09 am
on what reforms would be needed. all this must happen without riling the balkan states, who have been queuing up tojoin for years. azadeh moshiri, bbc news. our correspondentjoe inwood joins us now from kyiv. this was an important visit, tell us what we can take away from it. i think the levels of diplomatic support, maybe there were concerns they were not there in every european state really do seem to be rock solid. we got a united front here from the three biggest national leaders in europe. they came and spoke of the barbarism of russia's invasion, the fact that they had evidence of war crimes here and i think the ukrainians will view this is a really, really successful trip, but it's notjust about is a really, really successful trip, but it's not just about the is a really, really successful trip, but it's notjust about the sounds which are coming out. there are real political diplomatic decisions and are going to come as a consequence. we've got that decision on candidacy
6:10 am
status, and i think the force of support we got from the four leaders here yesterday will give them great confidence in that. but there is another issue, as always, eu candidacy is an issue for the long run but there are immediate concerns really pressing concerns on the battlefield here and i know they will have been talks, discussions about military hardware because the ukrainians say they are getting increasingly desperate about the state of their military hardware here. they need more equipment, they need more advanced systems, so i think, is one of the diplomatic support, they will hope to get more military support and they will be getting it soon. military support and they will be getting it soon-— military support and they will be getting it soon. joe, thank you very much. new research suggests the omicron variant of coronavirus is less likely to leave patients with long covid than the previous delta variant. king's college london looked at data from nearly 100,000 people logging symptoms on an app. little more than four % of those infected during the omicron wave registered long covid symptoms — compared to 10% during delta.
6:11 am
the first ever women's health ambassadorfor england has been appointed — a role aimed at helping to close the gender gap in health care. dame lesley regan will take up the position after more than four decades working in the sector. she says she intends to use her position to address the inequalities that exist across society. i think the emphasis i really would like to have is on the things that affect most women all the time, because often they are not talked about and that's where i think we have the biggest morbidity, if you like, and waste of resources. so many women leaving school or their education or their workplace because they can't cope with their periods or they're finding the menopause too stressful. so we must do things that are going to actually allow women to get on with their lives. for many of us, they're the bane of our online lives — those maddening pop—up boxes which ask for permission to store "cookies", or small amounts of personal data, every time we visit a new website. well, they could be on their way out.
6:12 am
the government has published new proposals which would allow us to set blanket permission for all websites. they're part of the data reform bill, which will also increase fines for companies which bombard us with nuisance calls and text messages. everest base camp could soon be moving to a new home after officials said global—warming and human activity are making the current location unsafe. the site which is used by up to 1500 people in the spring climbing season is currently on a glacier that's melting. the government in nepal said a new camp will be found at a lower altitude. let's find out what the weather has in store with sarah. fairly obviously quite a lot of attention on how it's going to be. there's lots of variety across the uk, isn't there?— there's lots of variety across the uk, isn't there? yes, good morning to ou. uk, isn't there? yes, good morning to yon i'm — uk, isn't there? yes, good morning to yon i'm on _ uk, isn't there? yes, good morning to you. i'm on the _ uk, isn't there? yes, good morning to you. i'm on the roof— uk, isn't there? yes, good morning
6:13 am
to you. i'm on the roof of— uk, isn't there? yes, good morning to you. i'm on the roof of new - to you. i'm on the roof of new broadcasting house this morning, a glorious the day here but we're certainly going to see a day of extremes, hot and humid again with a peak of that heatwave in the south, but it's not the same picture across all of the uk because we do have a front moving in from the north. that's bringing us some cooler conditions across scotland and northern ireland, breezy and fresh. certainly in the south, much of england and wales heart, sunshine, and feeling humid from the word go. rain this morning across northern ireland into central scotland too. sunshine and one or two showers to the north of that but further south, lots of hot sunshine. we could see temperatures today between 24—33, even 34 down towards the south—east. cooler conditions to the north of that front, 15—21 for scotland and northern ireland. cloud lapping into the coast of wales in the south—west of england at times. overnight, the cloud shifts further south than most of the rain fizzles out. still hot
6:14 am
and humid in the south with temperatures still in the high teens again but further north we are seeing fresher conditions moving in. tomorrow, that front reinvigorate, so some heavy rain around, perhaps some thunderstorms through wales, the midlands, and lincolnshire too. still we are in the hot and humid airto the still we are in the hot and humid air to the south of that's a 28—29 once again. cooler and fresher conditions to the north of that front on saturday. if you are not a fan of the heat, the humidity, and the very strong sunshine we've got with us this time of year, you will be pleased to hear by sunday we are all going to be in the cooler and fresher air so that heatwave really peaking out there today and then gradually turning a touch cooler over the next couple of days. sarah, thank ou over the next couple of days. sarah, thank you very _ over the next couple of days. sarah, thank you very much. _ over the next couple of days. sarah, thank you very much. see _ over the next couple of days. sarah, thank you very much. see you - over the next couple of days. sarah, thank you very much. see you laterl thank you very much. see you later on. today marks 50 years since a break—in in washington dc kicked off one of the biggest
6:15 am
scandals in us political history. the plot was ultimately linked to president richard nixon's white house and exposed a broader culture of corruption, abuse of power and dirty tricks. jill wine—banks was on the special prosecutor's team investigating the cover—up. she's been remembering what happened. this is the place where onjune 17th, 1972, five men broke into the democratic national committee headquarters and were caught. and they were caught for a variety of reasons, all of them really stupid, but they were caught red—handed and they had on them evidence that linked them to the white house. the white house denied any involvement and said it was a third—rate burglary. i had no prior knowledge of the watergate break in. and so the press kept after it and then our office was established, the office of the watergate special prosecutor. and then we started using the grand jury to get evidence. the watergate hearings took place over 51 days and riveted the nation.
6:16 am
this was the biggest day of the watergate hearings yet. literally, almost all of america, about 80% to 85% of american households watched the watergate hearings, and they watched at least 30 hours of hearings. the committee will come to order. stand up, raise your right hand. john dean was the narrator of the full story. i began by telling the president that there was a cancer growing on the presidency and that if the cancer was not removed, the president himself would be killed by it. his memory was terrific. he was an insider who said, i'm guilty. i did these bad things and i know because i was at these meetings and he documented everything. i mean, he proved to be an amazing witness. no comment at all, right now. the media landscape in 1972 around the world was very different than it is today. there was no social media, there was no cable, there was no fox and msnbc. all the networks in america
6:17 am
had the same facts and people believed them. people trusted the media. it persuaded them of what was happening, and they turned on a very popular president. we were very unified after watergate. democrats and republicans wanted richard nixon to resign. they saw the corruption. january 6th was the culmination of an attempted coup. i think one of the similarities between these scandals is that, as one of president trump's employees said, the fish stinks from the head. i could stand in the middle of fifth avenue and shoot somebody and i wouldn't lose any voters, 0k. it's like incredible. both of them believed the president is above the law. i welcome this kind of examination because people have got to know. whether or not their president is a crook _ well, i'm not a crook. i think the january 6th committee is facing a lot of challenges. they must prove all the elements because january 6th was terrible but it's not enough.
6:18 am
i am sure that it will end with proposals for legislation to prevent future bad acts, maybe changes to the electoral college act that make it airtight so that it can't happen again. it's hard to apply the lessons of watergate to the current event, this but clearly we learned that facts matter and we learned that holding people accountable matters. in the watergate case, justice prevailed, and that is something that i would hope we could see again. let's take a look at today's papers. the guardian pays tribute to british journalist dom phillips who was killed in the amazon. the paper says he died trying to warn the world about the war on nature, and that his work must be continued. the telegraph reports on calls from the aa for charges for congestion, parking and clean air zones
6:19 am
to be waived during next week's rail strikes. the metro front page carries this photograph of beyonce in vogue magazine where she's been talking about the release of her new album, herfirst since 2016. and one of the most read stories on the bbc news website is this article about tom hanks, who reportedly shouted at fans to "back off" after his wife rita wilson tripped while being surrounded as they left a restaurant in new york. a couple of stories to bring you. on the inside pages. i quite like this story although this is more watch it but don't do it. a car thief went to brendan mills' home in brisbane and as he was at home, he realised that there was a woman sitting in his car. at home. obviously trying to
6:20 am
steal it. his red volkswagen polo. she had broken into the house before earlier and she had showered and changed into clothes inside. all very odd. so what he did, when he saw her in his car, he got into his forklift truck when she had handily in the garden,, lifted the car into the air with a thief inside, two metres in the air and the forks under the truck meant she couldn't open the door. so then he called the police. she is up in the air trapped inside a car that she was trying to steal. so then he called the police who came down, the car was lowered and she was arrested and charged with burglary, unlawful use of a motor vehicle and police are saying, though, don't take the law into your own hands, but if you have a handy forklift truck, the moral of the story is to have forklift truck available at all times. in the obituary section on the daily telegraph, a fantastic story here
6:21 am
about a man called peter scott morgan, some people are familiar with his story. he died aged 64, an expert in robotics, and decided to use his own expertise to replace different defective parts of his body because he was diagnosed with mnd, and overtime basically, as bits of his body stopped working, he replaced them with technology so whether it was his stomach or his voice, gradually over time, they werejust bits of voice, gradually over time, they were just bits of his body, so he made it as lights work and ijust looked at the end here, i didn't know much about him privately, but he says, growing up openly gay in the 70s taught you to think for yourself, an interview in 2020, i got used to feeling that i had to fit in. after 40 years of breaking the rules i'm still saying let's not
6:22 am
do it the way it's been done before, let's do something different. wasn't he nicknamed cyborg man? yes, a terrific story. he made a massive difference to the world as well. whether today. difference to the world as well. whethertoday. in difference to the world as well. whether today. in some parts of the uk, it is hot already. 18 degrees already this morning in some parts, not everywhere, but in some parts. it is expected to be the hottest day of the year so far with temperatures up of the year so far with temperatures up to 34 degrees. andrew plant is keeping cool by a lake in somerset and joins us now. what a perfect setting. it almost looks like the open sea there, but the swimmers in the water there, explain where you are. we are not quite there yet this morning, guys. it's stilla bit chilly here actually but you can tell we are going to get there, and it's going to be a beautiful day. there's barely a cloud in the sky. that is clevedon pier in the background there. right on the horizon is wales. you can see

6:27 am
the unite trade union has warned of possible industrial action to prevent cuts to london's bus network. it said a consultation on proposals to cut a number of bus routes in the capital could lead to hundreds ofjob losses. members will vote shortly on whether to take action. well, if you're heading out on public transport this morning, this is how tfl services are looking right now. are on the tubes this morning, there are severe delays on the district and metropolitan lines. and thejubilee line is part suspended between waterloo and finchley road, because of a signal failure. onto the weather now with kate kinsella. good morning. it's been quite a warm and humid night. and today, the temperature's set to get warmer. lots of sunshine, uv levels high, pollen count still high. now, yesterday, we got just over 29 celsius, making it the hottest day of the year so far. today, it's likely to exceed that — 32, or even 33 celsius, by the end of the afternoon. so, very warm and also very humid. now, overnight, it's going to be
6:28 am
another uncomfortable night. the minimum temperature in central london probably not dropping much below 18 celsius. so, again, not great for sleeping. now for saturday, you can see this cold front move south. it stalls and then it starts to move backwards. so down in the southeast, hanging on to the humid air, it's going to be warm and sunny. but further north, the home counties, there is a bit more cloud. there's a chance of a shower, although it should stay largely dry. temperatures a bit different — 23 where the cloud is, 27 or 28 where we've still got the sunshine. but that cold front finally moves south overnight, bringing some spells of rain. you might hear the odd rumble of thunder, but you'll notice the cooler air. for sunday, there could be one or two showers, but it is at the moment looking largely dry. breezier day for sunday. but those temperatures are going to feel quite a bit cooler. i'm back with the latest from the bbc london newsroom in half an hour. plenty more on our website at the usual address. bye for now.

6:38 am
in great form, after winning last week on the pga tour, which he has stayed loyal to. and the northern irishman is on three under par, alongside a real outsider — englishman callum tarren playing his first season on the tour, and appearing injust his second us open, and he's just one off the leader. adam hadwin who's on four under, although it could have been mclroy but for the last hole. you'd take 67 around this golf course any day. so even though i'm standing up here slightly frustrated that i bogeyed the last, it's a great start to the tournament. ifelt like i did most things well today. i certainly putted well and i hit the ball in the right spots, and i hit a lot of greens, gave myself plenty of chances. england's preparations for the women's euros are off to a winning start. they beat belgium 3—0 at molineux. they dominated the game, rachel daly with the pick of the goals in the second half. poor england are unbeaten in 11 matches under head coach sarina wiegman,
6:39 am
and they're among the favourites to win the euros, which start in just under three weeks' time. uk sport and sport england, say they endorse and accept, the findings of a report that found, that physical and emotional abuse, were �*systemic�* within british gymnastics. the whyte review, which was finally made public yesterday, found that, gymnast well—being and welfare "had not been at the centre of british gymnastics' culture". athletes were made to train with injuries, also punished for needing the toilet, sat on by coaches, shouted and sworn at, and, had their bags searched for food. anne whyte qc, made 17 recommendations, and said a sports ombudsman would be "an obvious step in the right direction". a week ago, it was ryan peniston, who? but now, the british 26—year—old, tennis player from southend, is one of the stories of queen's. he may be the world number 180, but the wild card entry stunned top seed casper ruud on tuesday, and now has beaten argentina's
6:40 am
francisco serundolo by two sets to one to reach the quarter—finals in west london. it's his first appearance at an atp tour event. he'll face serbia's, phillip cryinovich today. three british athletes battled it out in the women's 800 metres at last night's diamond league meeting. keely hodgkinson, laura muir, and jemma reekie lined up in oslo, and it was olympic silver medallist hodgkinson who came first. muir was second, with reekie a disappointing eighth. hockey will be one of the highlights, of the commonwealth games when the tournament gets under way in birmingham next month. but did you know the modern version of the game was started by a group of cricketers more than 150 years ago? i've been finding out more ahead of a special match this weekend, to mark the anniversary at teddington hockey club. in the footsteps of the founders.
6:41 am
the youngsters at teddington hockey club today may be playing a very different kind of field hockey to the one that was started 151 years ago. but there's still something special, it seems, about playing for the oldest club in the world. i didn't believe it. i was like, that's not true. i was like, oh, my... i didn't know that. many here were inspired to pick up a hockey stick by more recent events. holly webb on her way to win gold for great britain. webb. turns, scores! the olympic gold medal won by team gb's women in a thrilling finale at rio in 2016. made me think that hockey is a really good sport and i should play it more. i watched back a clip of that olympics, and the ball was flying around. itjust looked like so much fun. and now i realise it really is. take it round him, take it round him.|
6:42 am
itjust changed my life automatically. i wanted to do it. ijust wanted to play. this gold medal changed my life, my team—mates' lives. but then, when you step out of the team, to hear that it's changing lives of the youngsters, inspiring them to, you know, be active, or play hockey itself... as a stand out moment at the olympics was one thing. but to be a stand out moment in the history of your sport, it's incredible to be part of, because the game, it's constantly changing. life is constantly changing. so, to be part of it, to shape what the sport is now, yeah, really proud. it's now believed the modern version of field hockey started just down the road from where the teddington youngsters are training, in bushy park, the old hunting grounds of hampton court palace, where the deer still roam free, and where teddington cricket club still plays. it was right here at teddington cricket club, on the edge of the park, that it came towards the end of the season and the cricketers, well, they wanted to carry on doing something for the winter. so they had the bright idea —
6:43 am
dropping the ball onto the grass, and well, hitting it around with their cricket bats. the thought that the game that's now played in over 100 countries around the world, started right here, is pretty amazing. very quickly, it turned into a proper game, and they set rules, and they set parameters to the pitch. a very different game to what we know now. but if it wasn't for this, who knows? it may not have happened. yeah, so they quickly realised they couldn't use their cricket bat, because it's too unwieldy. so they made something rather thinner and more pliable. and this one is made out of ash. the original sticks were made out of holly, because it was nice and whippy, and that's the sort of tree they've had in busy park at the time. bats became curved sticks over the years, and the sport spread across the world. played on grass until a revolution started in the 19705, and the move to artificial pitches
6:44 am
transformed the game forever. it means you can play it all year round, something that we weren't able to do before floodlights came in. so, actually, access to hockey's become bigger. you don't have games called off because it's raining. i mean, i started on grass so — it shows my age! but yeah, it's a different game, it really is. the techniques have now changed, so it was very much sort of upright on bumpy grass pitches, stick stopping like that. hitting almost like a golf ball, was it? now the game is all played, very, very low, slap hitting. yeah. so you've got to bend your knees and get very, very low to the ground. so that's how the game is now played. skills that come naturally to the new generation, it seems, while those returning to the game need to start learning all over again. hands together at the top of the stick. yeah. and you're going to sweep. sweep through the ball. sweep it like a brush. yes, there we go! ok, alex. good.
6:45 am
ok, nice and low. chip under. yes! good. you let that go in. next month, there'll be another chance for the game to be in the national spotlight and to attract more players to pick up a stick. that's it, fred, well done. the commonwealth games in birmingham, with teams from wales, england and scotland all competing. and it was at the games in glasgow in 2014, that inspired current scotland and teddington star murray collins. i'd been playing hockey as a child in glasgow at the time, and it was amazing to go and watch all these amazing teams, the top teams in the world. and to see that and to witness that, yeah, it makes it something that feels like a target for the future. so much has changed, but the basics of the game and that thrill of hitting the back of the goal, is still the same as when the first pioneers connected stick with ball. yeah, and the next generation. the
6:46 am
commonwealth games will inspire more people to get involved. it starts in just over a month.— just over a month. what was the verdict on _ just over a month. what was the verdict on mike _ just over a month. what was the verdict on mike bushell - just over a month. what was the verdict on mike bushell and - just over a month. what was the i verdict on mike bushell and hockey from the rest? it verdict on mike bushell and hockey from the rest?— verdict on mike bushell and hockey from the rest? it came back to me. the technique _ from the rest? it came back to me. the technique was _ from the rest? it came back to me. the technique was very _ from the rest? it came back to me. the technique was very different. l from the rest? it came back to me. the technique was very different. i | the technique was very different. i may took a couple of gos to beat noor, the keeper. and he was generous. i found ankles were always in danger when i played hockey. the way you played, probably! over competitive. feisty. thank you. 14 minutes to — over competitive. feisty. thank you. 14 minutes to seven. _ over competitive. feisty. thank you. 14 minutes to seven. let's _ over competitive. feisty. thank you. 14 minutes to seven. let's find - over competitive. feisty. thank you. 14 minutes to seven. let's find out i 14 minutes to seven. let's find out what is happening with the weather. we will have a look first at this beautiful image. there is a big variety in the weather today. it may be that you are not experiencing this hot weather. it is largely in the south. if you are not, this is kind of what it is going to look like. that was clevedon in north somerset. it is again very hard for some people.
6:47 am
it is indeed, yes. good morning. the peak of the heatwave today across southern part of the uk. certainly not the same everywhere. you think it is hot here, well, in france yesterday, temperatures reached 40 celsius. that is the earliest in the year that france has ever seen a temperature of 40 celsius. paris is forecast to get to 40 tomorrow. we are not going to be quite as hard here, but we go see temperatures in london around 33 or 34 degrees. certainly the peak of the heat today. not the same across the uk. although we have hot sunshine holding on in the south, strong levels of uv out there as well, we have a different picture further north. for scotland and northern ireland it is cooler, it is fresher, rain sinking south and it is going to be breezy. the contrast down to the fact high pressure is sitting to the fact high pressure is sitting to the east, drawing on that warm southerly breeze, all that warm air from southern europe. a weather front moving into the north is bringing rainfor front moving into the north is bringing rain for northern ireland and scotland. the northern half of scotland brightening up with
6:48 am
sunshine. but further south across england and wales, another hot day to come. temperatures peaking between 24 to 33, 30 4 degrees down towards the south—east. very hot out there. very strong levels of uv and high levels of pollen. you will notice that if you are suffering from hay fever. temperatures in the north generally in the mid teens. overnight tonight, that weather front sinks south. most of the rain fizzling out. it is the dividing line between the cooler, fresher air in the north, and down towards the south another uncomfortable night. temperatures sitting on the high teens. a humid start to saturday. hot and humid air in the south. the weather front hot and humid air in the south. the weatherfront on hot and humid air in the south. the weather front on saturday is going to reinvigorate. it is going to bring heavy rain to parts of wales, the midlands coming to lincolnshire, the midlands coming to lincolnshire, the south west of england, thunderstorms mixed in. to the north of that, cooler, fresher, breezy, with showers. temperatures in the mid teens. towards the south, 28 or
6:49 am
29 degrees. once again down towards the south—east of england. a real contrast in temperature on saturday. by contrast in temperature on saturday. by sunday, we are all in that cooler, fresher air, with a northerly breeze. a few heavy showers. perhaps the odd rumble of thunder in the south. a fair amount of dry weather. temperatures 13 to 19 degrees by the time we get to sunday. if you don't like it quite of this hot, you will be pleased to know that during the weekend the temperatures dropping back by around about 10 degrees. that is between saturday and sunday. for the here and now, the peak of the heatwave today, do be prepared for a strong levels of uv. slap on the sun cream. we could see temperatures around 34 degrees. good advice, sarah. thank you. degrees. good advice, sarah. thank ou. good advice, sarah. thank you. the ollen good advice, sarah. thank you. the pollen count — good advice, sarah. thank you. tie: pollen count very high good advice, sarah. thank you. ti9: pollen count very high in some places. it will come as unwelcome news for hay fever sufferers, who face another day of sneezing,
6:50 am
itchy eyes, and a runny nose. wendy hurrell has more. a hay fever sufferer�*s worst nightmare. pollen whooshing into the air as grass is cut in summer. because while the sun is shining, insects buzzing around flowers, grasses swaying in a gentle breeze, if you're like me — and 16 million others across the country — you'll have a runny nose, a scratchy throat, itchy eyes and constant sneezing. this hay fever season seems worse than others, even with people who've never had it feeling the irritation. so what is hay fever? when a pollen grain first enters your body, it is almost immediately met with a bouncer of your body. this is the science bit from the royal institution. basically, it's your body's immune response to something it thinks is harmful. great when it's a genuinely dangerous disease. not so helpful for fending off tiny bits of innocuous pollen. we're talking hay fever. how is it for you?
6:51 am
it's been awful this year. like, really, really bad. like, you can probably hear it on my voice. it's like bunged up, itchy, painful eyes, the lot. there's a lot of hay fever tablets going down. but you're still working out in the park, that's the main thing. i think the tablets — like, managing it helps a lot, but in the mornings it's grim. everyone says it feels like hay fever is worse this year. is that true, and what's causing it? in orderfor plants to produce pollen, you'd expect a lot of dry, warm, sunny days. and then we've had a very, very mild winter. so what that does, is it means that the pollen season this year started earlier. so we get an increase of pollens. so we hay fever sufferers must have remedies and tricks. stay inside mid—morning when the pollen count is highest, and run a mile from the lovely lawn maintenance teams keeping our parks tidy. wendy hurrell, bbc news. nine minutes to seven.

6:58 am
at pick—up and drop—off times. it's designed to improve safety for children and reduce pollution in the areas around schools. so far 13 schools are part of the scheme but the council hope six more willjoin. it's really refreshing that schemes like this are sort of universally welcomed, actually, both by teachers and parents, and local residents. it's not about saying to people, use your car and then parkjust on the edge. it's about saying, if you live close enough to be able to walk, please do that, and don't use your cars. and as i say, people are really welcoming it. they're hugely popular. the unite trade union has warned of possible industrial action to prevent cuts to london's bus network. it said a consultation on proposals to cut a number of bus routes in the capital could lead to hundreds ofjob losses. members will vote shortly on whether to take action. well if you're heading out on public transport this morning, this is how tfl services are looking right now. on the tube there are severe delays on the district and metropolitan lines. and thejubilee line is part suspended between waterloo and finchley road because of a signal failure.
6:59 am
onto the weather now with kate kinsella. good morning. it's been quite a warm and humid night. and today, the temperature's set to get warmer. lots of sunshine, uv levels high, pollen count still high. now, yesterday, we got just over 29 celsius, making it the hottest day of the year so far. today, it's likely to exceed that — 32, or even 33 celsius, by the end of the afternoon. so, very warm and also very humid. now, overnight, it's going to be another uncomfortable night. the minimum temperature in central london probably not dropping much below 18 celsius. so, again, not great for sleeping. now for saturday, you can see this cold front move south. it stalls and then it starts to move backwards. so down in the southeast, hanging on to the humid air, it's going to be warm and sunny. but further north, the home counties, there is a bit more cloud. there's a chance of a shower, although it should stay largely dry. temperatures a bit different — 23 where the cloud is, 27 or 28 where we've still got the sunshine. but that cold front finally moves south overnight, bringing some spells of rain.
7:00 am
you might hear the odd rumble of thunder, but you'll notice the cooler air. for sunday, there could be one or two showers, but it is at the moment looking largely dry. breezier day for sunday. but those temperatures are going to feel quite a bit cooler. i'm back with the latest from the bbc london newsroom in half an hour. plenty more on our website at the usual address. bye for now.
7:01 am
good morning. welcome to breakfast with charlie stayt and naga munchetty. our headlines today. the bank of england warns inflation could rise to 11% this year, we look at the real cost of living — and what we're cutting back on. president zelensky says ukraine is closer than ever to the eu — with senior officials in brussels expected to recommend it as a formal candidate later today. a great start to the us open golf, for rory mchoy. one of the players who's refused to join the breakaway saudi backed tour, is just one shot off the lead, in brookline looking to win his first major in 8 years. good morning. the heatwave in the southis good morning. the heatwave in the south is likely to peak today with

7:03 am
they are worried about it, with around two—thirds saying it's affecting their mental health. more than half say they have cut back on the food they're buying to cook at home and nearly two—thirds — 64 per cent — are going out to eat in pubs or restaurants less often. petrol and household energy bills are clearly a big source of worry. half of the people we asked are using their car less frequently — while seven out of 10 say they've turned off appliances in their homes to save energy. with prices rising at their fastest rate for 40 years, households budgets appear to be tightening — as our business correspondent emma simpson reports. look at hers, mummy! summertime's here, but for many, the living is far from easy. there's plenty to spend cash on at this birmingham park. a family favourite. i don't want one, thank you. but many are cutting back. going to the pub less. just saving where i can. just have a few cans at home instead. i when you put the oven on,
7:04 am
rather than just put one thing in there, you know, you do several things at the same time. we have to if we have to survive in this climate, you know, in this situation. at least the park is free. you've just got to get there. the diesel is absolutely crippling me. just coming up here i paid £1.93 a litre and compared to what it used to be, i can't go out as much as i used to. not a chance. using the car a bit less, maintaining it a bit less as well. and, yeah, looking for the yellow stickers at the supermarket. everywhere you go there are folk wondering how to make the sums add up. well, we never had to watch what we spent in terms - of on a weekly basis. now we're doing it on a daily basis. a few miles down the road, this school has decided to make school uniform and pe kit free for all new children moving up from primary in the autumn. the basics of clothing and feeding your child, families
7:05 am
are finding that challenging. i think, you know, it canjust be a throwaway comment where just last week a parent said to me, you know, at least i don't have to have the heating on any more. so the pressure's definitely gone up? absolutely, yeah. her pupils know about the pressures, too. we're not spending as much money as we need to, like, going out, but, like, my pocket money hasn't, so i'm happy for that. making sure the lights are off. turning the plugs i off at the switches. having to say no to some stuff because they can't afford all the things that i want. trying to have the good times, have things out, stays out, but try and keep the cost of those a bit smaller. rebecca's daughter, jess, will get the free uniform for september, and it all helps. itjust means that in the summer, we're going to be able to do a few extra little trips out. so, yeah, things that we probably couldn't have done if we'd had - to fork out for the uniform. a glimpse of the cutback economy.
7:06 am
for many, it's now about staying afloat and preparing for more turbulent times ahead. emma simpson, bbc news, birmingham. ukraine's bid tojoin the european union is expected to move a step forward today — as senior officials in brussels look likely to approve the country as an official candidate for membership. in his nightly address, president zelensky said ukraine had never been closer to the eu. it comes after the leaders of germany, france and italy used a visit to kyiv to announce their support for the country's application for candidacy. azadeh moshiri has this report. ukraine's president called it a truly historic day, describing a visit to kyiv by some of europe's most powerful leaders. from france, germany and italy, three of the eurozone's largest economies, as well as romania. and while president zelensky has grown accustomed to receiving politicians who wish to see the war first hand, this time he had clear demands —
7:07 am
more weapons and shoring up support for ukraine's candidacy to the european union. translation: ukraine has felt the support of four powerfulj european states at once, and in particular support for our movement to the european union. italy, romania, france and germany are with us. but up until this visit, president zelensky had criticised these leaders, arguing they weren't taking a tough enough stance with russia. president macron was accused of being too soft with his words and chancellor scholz too slow in cutting off economic ties. perhaps that's why they were taken to irpin, a town decimated by russian shelling. at the end of the visit, france, germany and italy's leaders announced their support for ukraine's immediate candidate status. translation: all four of us, - we support the status of ukraine's candidacy for immediate accession to the european union.
7:08 am
this status will be accompanied, we have all said, by a road map and also implies a consideration of the western balkan states and neighbouring states, in particular moldova. those caveats signalled the long road ahead for ukraine's accession to the bloc. all 27 member states must agree to its candidacy, and then negotiations would begin on what reforms would be needed. all this must happen without riling the balkan states, who have been queuing up tojoin for years. azadeh moshiri, bbc news. new research suggests the omicron variant of coronavirus is less likely to leave patients with long covid than the previous delta variant. king's college london looked at data from nearly 100,000 people logging symptoms on an app. a little more than 4 per cent
7:09 am
of those infected during the omicron wave registered long covid symptoms compared to 10 per cent during delta. the first ever women's health ambassador for england has been appointed — a role aimed at helping to close the gender gap in healthcare. dame lesley regan will take up the position after more than four decades working in the sector. she says she intends to use her position to address the inequalities that exist across society. i think the emphasis i really would like to have is on the things that affect most women all the time, because often they are not talked about and that's where i think we have the biggest morbidity, if you like, and waste of resources. so many women leaving school or their education or their workplace because they can't cope with their periods or they're finding the menopause too stressful. so we must do things that are going to actually allow women to get on with their lives.
7:10 am
for many of us, they're the bane of our online lives — those maddening pop—up boxes which ask for permission to store "cookies", or small amounts of personal data, every time we visit a new website. well, they could be on their way out. the government has published new proposals which would allow us to set blanket permission for all websites. they're part of the data reform bill, which will also increase fines for companies which bombard us with nuisance calls and text messages. everest base camp could soon be moving to a new home — after officials said global—warming and human activity are making the current location unsafe. the site which is used by up to 1500 people in the spring climbing season — is currently on a glacier that's melting. the government in nepal said a new camp will be found at a lower altitude. a contrast of those snowy peaks to what's happening in some parts of the country today. let's find out what the weather has in store with sarah. obviously bathing in sunshine down

7:12 am
feel very hot, very sunny, more cloud across wales and the south—west of england and fresher conditions further north. this evening and tonight, the cloud thinks further south and most of the rain tending to fizzle out. it will be the dividing line between fresher temperatures, 9—10 across the northern half of the uk but around 17-18 in northern half of the uk but around 17—18 in the south—east. a humid night for sleeping. 17—18 in the south—east. a humid night forsleeping. during 17—18 in the south—east. a humid night for sleeping. during saturday, the hot and humid air in the south—east but we've got a weather front bringing heavy rain, thunderstorms possible for wales, the midlands, lincolnshire, and temperatures to the north of that only around the mid to high teens, but again in the south, 28—29 possible, so another hot sticky day again tomorrow. probably not quite as hot as it will be today when we are expecting those temperatures in the low to mid 30s, so a very hot day. if you don't like their humidity, things are going to turn cooler this weekend and it will be

7:17 am
saltwater swimming pool. it's blocked off from the sea but refreshed by the tides that keep people safe from the waves which are treacherous here on the west coast but it's pretty big and it will be packed here today with people using their body boards and coming for a swim out to that platform. our new year's day i have been in here before and it's absolutely freezing. i'm told its a lot warmer here today. clevedon pier in the distance there and as you can see, wales across there. a lovely clear view today, so probably up to 27—28 here on the west coast today but on the east coast you will get the really high temperatures, cambridge and norwich and down in london as well. but we won't see any major records broken today. in fact today will be the hottest day of 2022 but wednesday was hotter than thursday and friday will be hotter than thursday so getting up to around 34 but the hottest day ever recorded in june, you have to go back half a century, 46 years ago, southampton.
7:18 am
over 35 degrees. 35.6 degrees that day, but the hottest temperature ever recorded in the uk, people will probably remember because it was only three years ago in 2019, in cambridge, over38 only three years ago in 2019, in cambridge, over 38 degrees, 38 and a half degrees, so we won't get anywhere near that today but 34 is not bad. so, if you are lucky enough to be off work today, today is a day to be off work today, today is a day to enjoy that. we will hit thunderstorms in parts of the country at the weekend but before then, of course, a glorious friday ahead. andrew, thank you very much. see you later on. the high temperatures have prompted a level three heat—health alert to be issued for london, the east of england and the south—east. we can get more details on what that means now from agossteeno sooza from the uk health security agency. a very good morning to you. i'm thinking you're probably getting a

7:20 am
to support our colleagues in the nhs and in the local government associations with different local authorities, to really protect this most vulnerable and prepare the services and health impacts we may observe with this hot spell. so don't forget about checking on your family, just to be sure that they are ready for the hot spell, the first one this year.— first one this year. there is a level three _ first one this year. there is a level three alert, _ first one this year. there is a level three alert, for- first one this year. there is a level three alert, for those i first one this year. there is a - level three alert, for those areas we mentioned before, london, the east of england, the south—east, but there is a separate level one alert, so what does that mean come issued for northern england? haste so what does that mean come issued for northern england?— so what does that mean come issued for northern england? we have three different levels _ for northern england? we have three different levels of _ for northern england? we have three different levels of alert, _ for northern england? we have three different levels of alert, so _ for northern england? we have three different levels of alert, so level- different levels of alert, so level three is more an operational level of alert where we call it heatwave action. it is to inform our partners they should prepare their services to possible increases in demand due to possible increases in demand due
7:21 am
to the increases in temperatures, and we also have a level two, which is currently active in the south—west and east of england. it's just to inform our partners that they should prepare for services in case they need to enter into action and we see an increase in temperatures but right now the situation is stable, as your colleague mentioned before. we expect temperatures to drop tomorrow but it's really important to focus on today where we are going to see the higher temperatures. the level one, it means that although we are not seeing an increase in temperatures, people should still prepare for it and it's not only during hot spells you should prepare, it's something that usually takes all year, so it'sjust prepare, it's something that usually takes all year, so it's just a reminder that the hot weather, although it doesn't impact in those regions, it may come later in the summer. :, :, , :, regions, it may come later in the summer. :, :, :, , :, summer. some of what you do is about common sense — summer. some of what you do is about common sense in _ summer. some of what you do is about common sense in a _ summer. some of what you do is about common sense in a way, _ summer. some of what you do is about common sense in a way, about - summer. some of what you do is about common sense in a way, about what i common sense in a way, about what parts of the day come in those places very hot today, like london

well, brace yourself, waheed. thanks to the skegness raceway, there is a new attraction in town, hoping to pull a new visitors. we had a tough couple years with covid, so we just thought, we'll do this. skegness raceway is one of the first tourist attractions on the road into skegness. so it's the first thing they see, so if we can put a smile on people's faces before they hit the town we're all happy. did you see the sign coming in — skegvegas? we did. skegvegas, are you feeling it? it's better than the actual vegas. is it? it's more appealing, yeah? i think it's brilliant. somebody turned up from rochdale just to get a picture with the sign. i just to come to skegness for that. the sign is modelled on the real deal 5,000 miles away. it cost £36,000 but the value of what is fast becoming
7:25 am
a viral marketing moment — priceless. speaking of which. binley mega chippy! oh, my god, it's round! let's skip skegvegas and head down to coventry, shall we? where £172 million was invested in the arts during its reign as city of culture. so after all of that, what was it that put coventry on the international map? culture ? chips. where are we going, charlotte? binley mega chippy. this is what a social media storm looks like. tiktok memes and youtube videos have sent thousands to coventry for a bag of chips. not even binley mega chippy�*s owner kamal understands the magic at work here.
7:26 am
i don't know, but i'm loving it. i'm just going to go with it. binley mega chippy! we had a bus—load of 12 people from dundee yesterday. i was shouting to some people from newcastle. it'sjust funny. it'sjust chippy tea. it's just fish and chips. but it is worth so much more than that to coventry. in the old days, this is what the mad marketeers thought would bring the seasiders to skegness. thejolly fisherman is still welcoming visitors today, but they hope this will bring a few more in. a taste of las vegas, but like the sign says, it's not in nevada, it's in lincolnshire. skegness or skegvegas is leading up to its name today. bracing. it is bracing down here even though it's going to be 29 degrees would you

7:31 am
the number of daily flights during the summer period to help tackle staffing issues. the airport is planning to limit its number of daily flights to 825 injuly and 850 in august compared to a reported 900 daily flights during the same time period in previous years. gatwick says the reduction will allow airlines to manage more predictable timetables. enfield council has launched a consultation on whether to expand its "school streets" scheme which would see roads near schools closed to traffic at pick—up and drop—off times. it's designed to improve safety for children and reduce pollution in the areas around schools. so far 13 are part of the scheme but the council hope six more willjoin. it's really refreshing that schemes like this are sort of universally welcomed, actually, both by teachers and parents, and local residents. it's not about saying to people, use your car and then parkjust on the edge. it's about saying, if you live close enough to be able to walk, please do that, and don't use your cars. and as i say, people are really welcoming it.
7:32 am
they're hugely popular. if you're heading out on public transport this morning, onto the weather now with kate kinsella. good morning. it's been quite a warm and humid night. and today, the temperature's set to get warmer. lots of sunshine, uv levels high, pollen count still high. now, yesterday, we got just over 29 celsius, making it the hottest day of the year so far. today, it's likely to exceed that — 32, or even 33 celsius, by the end of the afternoon. so, very warm and also very humid. now, overnight, it's going to be another uncomfortable night. the minimum temperature in central london probably not dropping much below 18 celsius. so, again, not great for sleeping. now for saturday, you can see this cold front move south. it stalls and then it starts to move backwards. so down in the south—east, hanging on to the humid air, it's going to be warm and sunny. but further north, the home counties, there is a bit more cloud. there's a chance of a shower, although it should stay largely dry.
7:33 am
temperatures a bit different — 23 where the cloud is, 27 or 28 where we've still got the sunshine. but that cold front finally moves south overnight, bringing some spells of rain. you might hear the odd rumble of thunder, but you'll notice the cooler air. for sunday, there could be one or two showers, but it is at the moment looking largely dry. breezier day for sunday. but those temperatures are going to feel quite a bit cooler. i'm back with the latest from the bbc london newsroom an hour. plenty more on our website at the usual address. hello, this is breakfast with charlie stayt and naga munchetty. just gone 7:33am, friday morning. we are concentrating this morning on the cost of living crisis. as inflation rates hit a 40—year high, we're taking a detailed look at the cost of living crisis this morning, and how it's impacting the way we eat, socialise, shop and travel. ben's just outside the studios

7:35 am
to use their cars less often. a typical family car now cost over £100 to fill. and over half of those we asked said they'd cut back on any kind of transport whatsoever. meanwhile, the cost of energy is something we've discussed on breakfast. more than half of the respondents told us that they are careful to use appliances less often. it is all very well if you are able to make those savings. but some businesses have no choice but to keep using fuel and energy. one of them is a coach company. with me is sam nixon from elite coaches. thank you forjoining us. as a business, are you noticing if bookings and how do you cope with that? titer? are you noticing if bookings and how do you cope with that?— do you cope with that? very slight at this moment _ do you cope with that? very slight at this moment in _ do you cope with that? very slight at this moment in time. _ do you cope with that? very slight at this moment in time. these i at this moment in time. these schools are really struggling to go on school trips. quite a lot of them are having to go and seek funding from fundraising events, parents associations etc, which is quite sad, because ultimately the children are suffering. the cost of fuel for us has risen circa £40,000 extra per

7:39 am
about that later. some useful, practical advice on ways you can save money perhaps without cutting back too much. it is a gorgeous day here out in salford quays outside the bbc breakfast studio. and a lot of the pressures that people will be facing on a day like this, it is a day you should be out enjoying it, being able to spend money. a lot of people don't have that extra money to spend. they will be finding pressures from their kids perhaps asking them for an ice cream. we will be talking about how you can deal with that. some practical advice to help you with those cost of living pressures. thank you, ben. definitely giving us an impression ofjust how every day life is being affected. the weather is nice for some people today. that comes free. sports entertainment, that gives people... it was very entertaining at the us open. naga, have you ever hit a turkey in golf?
7:40 am
not deliberately. that was one of the highlights of the opening day. the morning. the turkey was a tease. if you stay watching, you will find out about the wild turkeys in a few moments. good morning. it is a welcome relief for golf to finally be focusing on the sport again, after the controversy of the saudi—backed, breakaway tour. and it feels a bit more like normal. it's the players who have so far stayed loyal to the pga tour, who are making the early running at the us open — notably rory mclroy. joe lynskey reports. this is rory mcilroy in 2022. more serene on the greens, and more emphatic. the first birdie of the day if he can make this. in the last 12 months, he's won twice on the tour. now at the us open, it's a major he wants most, and it shows.
7:41 am
that kind of emotion can spoil a round, but not here. with three under par, mcilroy is in contention, chasing a first major since 2014, when he won two of them. eight years on, golf is changing. mcilroy has been a critic of the saudi—funded rebel tour. he was asked if a win here would be one for the good guys. i'm just being me. i'm living my life and doing what i think is right, and trying to play the best golf that i possibly can. imean, i'm... i wasn't asked to be put here. i wasn't trying to be in this position. i'm just... ..i�*m just being me. mcilroy�*s been to the summit, but darlington's callum tarran is aasth in the world. on his way down to boston, his airline lost his clubs. with them back, he played the round of his life. he's up there as part of an english charge, with in—form matt fitzpatrick and justin rose.
7:42 am
now they have to turn heads for three more rounds. gobble, gobble. brookline's wild turkeys get the best view of the birdies. at this intriguing us open there is so much to watch out for. joe lynskey, bbc news. there we are. a charlie gard to see them in the end. —— charlie gard to see them. with less than three weeks to go before the women's euros start, hosts england continue to impress, beating beat belgium last night 3—0 at molineux. they dominated the game, rachel daly with the pick of the goals in the second half. england are unbeaten in 11 matches under head coach sarina wiegman, and they're among the favourites to win the euros, with only two more warm up matches to come. britain's new tennis ace ryan penniston says he doesn't want to wake up. he is absolutely living the dream at queen's. he may be the world number 180, but the wild card entry stunned top seed casper ruud on tuesday, and now has beaten argentina's francisco cerundolo by two sets to one to reach the quarter—finals in west london.
7:43 am
at the age of 26, the man from southend is making first appearance at an atp tour event. he'll face serbia's, filip krajinovic today. it wasn't to be a record equalling fourth gold cup at royal ascot for straivarius and frankie dettori. it was a thrilling finish, as dettori took his star horse wide in a bold move. but they couldn't make up the ground and finished third, with mojo star second. and it was victory for the favourite, kyprios, who, amazingly, made it eight gold cup wins now for trainer aiden o'brien. there was disappointment for her majesty the queen, who couldn't attend in person but was watching on tv. her big favourite, reach for the moon, in the hampton court stakes, came in second. you can't always win in racing. it is interesting in tennis when you get a player who has momentum. a moment in time. then confidence is, you can literally see someone changing. than you can literally see someone changing-— you can literally see someone chanauin. �* ~ ., , ., . , changing. an unknown before queens, and now he gets _ changing. an unknown before queens, and now he gets a _ changing. an unknown before queens,

7:45 am
to a very exacting standard. at the rathfinny estate near alfriston, they want to show the world that what they produce here is worth seeking out. and they've spent years working with neighbouring winemakers to get the protected status. it means it's grown from grapes in sussex, with our excellent soils, excellent weather and also people. so we've got a huge amount of skill in sussex, excellent winemakers. so that's sort of the first side of it. the second side is quality. only wines tested by an independent panel of experts will be able to use the sussex label. i think this designation will help for selling this product abroad. it helps to show that the region where the wine originates is really special, and the way it is produced is regulated and controlled, to make the product that people really value. for winemakers, this is all part of the ongoing development of english wine, a sense of place increasingly
7:46 am
important to those who buy it. at the moment, _ english wine, it can be a bit complicated to know exactly where the grapes are grown, where the wines are made, i and the story is not as transparent. so it does help to add that sort of potential quality, but also i the story of each region can start to differentiate. - so this is one of- the first appellations that has been added in england. so it's very exciting actually. and the hope is more areas, including kent, will follow, adding to the reputation of the wine we produce here, with a guarantee of quality which can be recognised around the world. i feel like, from those vineyards there — it is a great story in terms of english winemaking, isn't it? beautiful scenery in the sunshine, thatis beautiful scenery in the sunshine, that is obvious the good. and there is more.

7:48 am
just the heat but strong sunshine. strong levels of uv. not as hard as it is across the continent. in france, paris is likely to see a0 degrees by tomorrow. not the same everywhere across the uk. we do have those real contrasting weather conditions. in the south across much of england and wales, hot sunshine, very humid. but it is cooler and fresher further north as the weather front brings rain moving further south. rain across scotland and northern ireland. high pressure drawing on those warm southerly winds across much of this —— england and wales. a bit of a wet day for parts of northern ireland and central and southern scotland. the rain drifting south. sunshine and showers in the north. a bit more cloud around the coast of wales and the south—west of england. at temperatures between 2a to 33, or even 3a degrees across parts of england and wales. typically, 15 to
7:49 am
21 for scotland and northern ireland. a day of contrast. as we move through the overnight period, the band of cloud will sink south. most of the rain fizzling out. it is the dividing line between cooler, fresher conditions in the north. nine or 10 degrees overnight. still around 17, possibly 18 degrees in the south—east. another sticky night for sleeping. through the day tomorrow we are going to be seen that divide again, with hot and humid conditions in the far south. these —— cooler, fresher airfurther north. heavy rain for wales, the midlands and lincolnshire. they could be the odd rumble of thunder towards the south—west of england. in the south east, 28 degrees or so possible again. but further north, a contrast with those temperatures sitting in the mid to high teens. every time we get to sunday, that weather front would have cleared to the south. a bit rain. a cooler, fresher feeling day. the south. a bit rain. a cooler, fresherfeeling day. temperatures fresher feeling day. temperatures between 13 fresherfeeling day. temperatures between 13 to 19 degrees by the time
7:50 am
we get to sunday. still some showers in the far south. if you are not a fan of heat and humidity, between saturday and sunday in the south we will see a drop in temperature to about 10 degrees. it is turning cooler in the next few days. a relatively short lived heatwave. but do bear in mind it is going to be very hard in the south today and very strong levels of uv. high levels of pollen as well. thank you very much. whether for festivals. glastonbury, _ thank you very much. whether for festivals. glastonbury, you - thank you very much. whether for festivals. glastonbury, you think l festivals. glastonbury, you think mardi, wellington boots. glastonbury festival should have celebrated its 50th birthday two summers ago. but like most other major events around the world, the pandemic put the celebrations on hold. finally next week, glastonbury is making a return. and a new documentary charting five decades of the festival is being aired to mark the occasion. let's take a look. finally next week, glastonbury is making a return. and a new documentary charting five decades of the festival
7:51 am
is being aired to mark the occasion. it was just a pound per head to come in. i mean, it didn't even cover the show, actually. my bank manager thought i'd gone totally mad. my parents were probably well aware of woodstock and all the other festivals that had taken place around a time. but our festival was very, you know, it was like a village fete. britpop really was one of those kind of big festival moments to inject the event with a new energy. that's what happened throughout the history. you canjust see it. you can point it out in a timeline, you canjust see when those massive changes happened. and when it suddenly turned to something else. glastonbury is a reflection of what is going on in the music game at that time. britpop had its moment. and then oasis had their moment. so, it was scary and there was a lot of pressure andi
7:52 am
there was a lot riding on it. yeah. i but inside me my spirit is saying, | "you are the headliner, you are the glasto headliner, friday." i remember that moment well. we're joined now by francis whatley, who made the documentary. good morning. this is not a chronological look at glastonbury. this is about the spirit of it and how it has evolved?— this is about the spirit of it and how it has evolved? that's right. i've how it has evolved? that's right. we divided _ how it has evolved? that's right. i've divided it _ how it has evolved? that's right. i've divided it thematically - how it has evolved? that's right. i i've divided it thematically rather than chronologically. so although we do cover— than chronologically. so although we do cover from the very beginning, from _ do cover from the very beginning, from the — do cover from the very beginning, from the 1970 festival right up to 2019. _ from the 1970 festival right up to 2019. we — from the 1970 festival right up to 2019, we do it much more in terms of theme _ 2019, we do it much more in terms of theme so _ 2019, we do it much more in terms of theme so we — 2019, we do it much more in terms of theme. so we start actually with, i think— theme. so we start actually with, i think one — theme. so we start actually with, i think one of— theme. so we start actually with, i think one of the standout moments for the _ think one of the standout moments for the festival in the 1980s, when michaei— for the festival in the 1980s, when michael eavisjoins for the festival in the 1980s, when michael eavis joins forces with cnd. with the _ michael eavis joins forces with cnd. with the lace bruce kent, actually.

good morning. it's friday 17thjune and today on breakfast we're looking in detail at the impact of the soaring cost of living with the bank of england warning that the rate of inflation could hit 11 % later this year. the huge rise is being driven in part by events taking place hundreds of miles away in ukraine but the pinch is already being felt right here in the uk. bbc news has asked a,000 adults across the uk how they're feeling about the cost of living. eight out of ten said they are worried about it, with around two—thirds saying it's affecting their mental health. more than half say they have cut back on the food they're buying to cook at home and nearly two—thirds, 6a%, are going out to eat in pubs or restaurants less often. petrol and household energy bills are clearly a big source of worry. half of the people we asked are using their car less frequently while seven out of ten say they've turned off appliances in their homes to save energy. with prices rising at their fastest rate for a0 years, households
8:04 am
budgets appear to be tightening as our business correspondent emma simpson reports. look at hers, mummy! summertime's here, but for many, the living is far from easy. there's plenty to spend cash on at this birmingham park. a family favourite. i don't want one, thank you. but many are cutting back. going to the pub less. just saving where i can. just have a few cans at home instead. i when you put the oven on, rather than just put one thing in there, you know, you do several things at the same time. we have to if we have to survive in this climate, you know, in this situation. at least the park is free. you've just got to get there. the diesel is absolutely crippling me. just coming up here i paid £1.93 a litre and compared to what it used to be, i can't go out as much as i used to. not a chance. using the car a bit less, maintaining it a bit less as well. and, yeah, looking for the yellow stickers at the supermarket. everywhere you go there
8:05 am
are folk wondering how to make the sums add up. well, we never had to watch what we spent in terms - of on a weekly basis. now we're doing it on a daily basis. a few miles down the road, this school has decided to make school uniform and pe kit free for all new children moving up from primary in the autumn. the basics of clothing and feeding your child, families are finding that challenging. i think, you know, it canjust be a throwaway comment where just last week a parent said to me, you know, at least i don't have to have the heating on any more. so the pressure's definitely gone up? absolutely, yeah. her pupils know about the pressures, too. we're not spending as much money as we need to, like, going out, but, like, my pocket money hasn't, so i'm happy for that. making sure the lights are off. turning the plugs l off at the switches. having to say no to some stuff because they can't afford
8:06 am
all the things that i want. trying to have the good times, have things out, stays out, but try and keep the cost of those a bit smaller. rebecca's daughter, jess, will get the free uniform for september, and it all helps. itjust means that in the summer, we're going to be able to do a few extra little trips out. so, yeah, things that we probably couldn't have done if we'd had - to fork out for the uniform. a glimpse of the cutback economy. for many, it's now about staying afloat and preparing for more turbulent times ahead. emma simpson, bbc news, birmingham. ben, constantly the pressures we ask to those in the know, those at institutions, heads of companies is how much longer do they see this lasting. we've had comments today from the boss of tesco. yes.

8:08 am
issues that people are facing and how they are changing their lifestyles in order to be able to cope with the rising costs so we will get more from him later. let's move onto other this morning. ukraine's bid tojoin the european union is expected to move a step forward today as senior officials in brussels look likely to approve the country as an official candidate for membership. in his nightly address, president zelensky said ukraine had never been closer to the eu. it comes after the leaders of germany, france and italy used a visit to kyiv to announce their support for the country's application for candidacy. azadeh moshiri has this report. ukraine's president called it a truly historic day, describing a visit to kyiv by some of europe's most powerful leaders. from france, germany and italy, three of the eurozone's largest economies, as well as romania. and while president zelensky has grown accustomed to receiving politicians who wish to see the war first hand, this time
8:09 am
he had clear demands — more weapons and shoring up support for ukraine's candidacy to the european union. translation: ukraine has felt the support of four powerful. european states at once, and in particular support for our movement to the european union. italy, romania, france and germany are with us. but up until this visit, president zelensky had criticised these leaders, arguing they weren't taking a tough enough stance with russia. president macron was accused of being too soft with his words and chancellor scholz too slow in cutting off economic ties. perhaps that's why they were taken to irpin, a town decimated by russian shelling. at the end of the visit, france, germany and italy's leaders announced their support for ukraine's immediate candidate status. translation: all four of us, - we support the status of ukraine's candidacy for immediate accession
8:10 am
to the european union. this status will be accompanied, we have all said, by a road map and also implies a consideration of the western balkan states and neighbouring states, in particular moldova. those caveats signalled the long road ahead for ukraine's accession to the bloc. all 27 member states must agree to its candidacy, and then negotiations would begin on what reforms would be needed. all this must happen without riling the balkan states, who have been queuing up tojoin for years. azadeh moshiri, bbc news. we can speak now to our correspondentjessica parker who joins us from brussels. good to see you. ever closer to the european union, president zelensky careful to say not closer to joining

8:12 am
they will meet in brussels next week to discuss the matter and we expected to be signed off but as i say, road ahead, but for ukrainians they will see this as an important political moment, but there are people within the european union who are a little bit sceptical about this because they worry that, while it's good to give ukraine a morale boost and hope that this stage, in one year, two years, three years, ten years, not a lot of progress has been made towards membership, that could leave people feeling disillusioned.— could leave people feeling disillusioned. . , . disillusioned. thanks very much. jessica disillusioned. thanks very much. jessica parker— disillusioned. thanks very much. jessica parker for _ disillusioned. thanks very much. jessica parker for us _ disillusioned. thanks very much. jessica parker for us in _ disillusioned. thanks very much. jessica parker for us in brussels. new research suggests the omicron variant of coronavirus is less likely to leave patients with long covid than the previous delta variant. king's college london looked at data from nearly 100,000 people logging symptoms on an app. a little more than four % of those infected during the omicron wave registered long covid symptoms compared to 10% during delta. for many of us, they're the bane of our online lives — those maddening pop—up boxes which ask for permission
8:13 am
to store "cookies", or small amounts of personal data, every time we visit a new website. well, they could be on their way out. the government has published new proposals which would allow us to set blanket permission for all websites. they're part of the data reform bill, which will also increase fines for companies which bombard us with nuisance calls and text messages. everest base camp could soon be moving to a new home after officials said global—warming and human activity are making the current location unsafe. the site which is used by up to 1500 people in the spring climbing season is currently on a glacier that's melting. the government in nepal said a new camp will be found at a lower altitude. let's find out what the weather has in store with sarah. sarah, ithink sarah, i think we have to be mindful that there will be lots of people saying yes, it's hard but lots of

8:15 am
edging its way south. to the north of that, sunny spells and a few blustery showers but further south, much of england and wales, long spells of sunshine and more cloud in coastal parts. but temperatures today between 2a—33, even 3a, across england and wales. the hottest weather towards the south—east and eastern england but further north, only 15—21, so a real contrast. into the overnight, that weather front pushes its way further south. most of the rain fizzling out but there will be abandoned cloud through wales and the midlands. to the south of that, hot and muggy. 17—18. much more comfortable for comfortable for slipping further north, 9—10. tomorrow, the heat and humidity holding on in the south—east but for much of the uk it's a cooler fresher day. where those two air masses meet, heavy downpours. wales, lincolnshire, the midlands, some thunderstorms are possible. 28 in
8:16 am

really clear today. you can see all the way across to newport in wales. this is the marine lake, the way across to newport in wales. this is the marine take, a big saltwater swimming pool refreshed by the tides to keep people safe from the tides to keep people safe from the waves which can be treacherous here and on this west coast we think probably 27—28 even later today but it's the east coast which will get the brunt of the heat today. places like cambridge and norwich, 32—33, even later today, 3a degrees in london. water bottles at this school in weston—super—mare. and extra suncream encouraged at playtimes, teachers working out ways to help children keep their cool in school today. we are always thinking about water, they need to keep hydrated, so we're always offering water bottles to them. they have access during break and lunch times and in the classroom and we advise parents to apply sun cream in the morning before they arrive at school. we have sun hats at school, but also promote that to be brought
8:18 am
in from home and we ask them to seek out the shade wherever possible if they feel too hot. on the beach, this family who usually holiday abroad, kept a careful eye on the forecast and decided they would holiday here instead. everyone is saying it's going to be really hot so we thought we would get the beach done today and then do something a bit more indoors, swimming, so they can keep cooler. stay in the water definitely. for once it will be too hot to go to the beach. yeah, it makes a change it's not raining at least. - it's way too hot, yeah. you won't enjoy it. we've got the weekend off so we will probably go out to a beer garden or something and enjoy the sun. definitely with the children. i smother them in suncream. we were talking about that, - we've got sunburnt over the years because we didn't have sunscreen in those days _ keep them in the shade. i've got a bald spot to look after. laughter. several areas are expected to be
8:19 am
well above 30 celsius today. 3a predicted in london. 33 in cambridge, even 32 in norwich. that's higher than tel aviv in israel at 29, and even hotter than athens at a mere 30 degrees. it's notjust humans who can get too hot. this animal shelter keeps a careful eye on it's dogs too. eye on its dogs too. that means snacks served in the swimming pool. and for cats like casper they even have their own air conditioning unit. meaning even animals with fur coats can keep cool today. we start our dog walking at peak times. our volunteers walk our dogs mainly, and possibly we would look at cancelling that because we need to make it safe and anyone at home would to do that very early in the morning of very late in the evening. as most places see temperatures start to soar, for those lucky

8:24 am
seconds for andrew. literally begging him. it is 8.23. the first ever women's health ambassadorfor england has been appointed — a role aimed at helping to close the gender gap in health care. dame lesley regan will take up the position after more than four decades working in the sector. here's what she's had to say about the appointment. i would like to think about the short—term things we need to do to improve the day—to—day lives of women, so the problem is that women and bora—hansgrohe is faced with problem periods, with accessing contraception, the most cost—effective in health care but difficult to access for many women particularly women in hard to reach groups and ethnic minorities. improving the uptake of good early pregnancy care. addressing some of those problems as well. and then, as
8:25 am
you've all heard, this extraordinary emphasis which i really do welcome on the menopause because i'm a menopausal woman. and i think we need to encourage everyone to realise that menopause is an inevitability in a woman's life of course just as it is inevitable that most of the women you and i know are going to have 12 periods a year for a0 years of their life, semi—got to make make something everybody knows about, to help women deal with it. how could this help in practice? we are joined now by one of our regular gps, dr nighat arif. and women's health campaigner, milli hill. good morning to you both. so, the appointment is a job, that's kinda what it is, but in practice, what do you think could happen as a of this? i think it's absolutely brilliant news that this is happening. women's health has been off the agenda for too long. the fact she is coming in with so many clear plans is
8:26 am
absolutely brilliant. i would like to share here talk a little bit more about how we can address the kind of long—standing systemic sexism around women's health, the fact that women are so often not listen to and fobbed off when they go to their gp with health concerns for example. but it's really, really, really brilliant news and it sounds like she got some really practical ideas. it's something we hear often when we talk about health and women, not being listened to, and how, in practice, the system and a health expert you go to, the doctors, and the nursing profession, still there are issues around being listened to? yes, and i think if you look at the sort of history of women's health and take the longer view, you can see that there is a really long history of the female body being distrusted basically. we have been left out research for example until very recently thought that there's hardly been any research on the
8:27 am
female body because it was thought it wasn't safe because we have eggs. so a lot of research has been done by men on men and even on things like male animals, so we have no real deep knowledge of how women's bodies work. a lot of women don't have any understanding of how their own body works, ifind it really difficult to find information when i've been researching my book sometimes because it simply isn't there. the studies havejust sometimes because it simply isn't there. the studies have just not been done yet. there. the studies have 'ust not been done yetfi there. the studies have 'ust not been done yet. there is a list, an endless list. _ been done yet. there is a list, an endless list, a _ been done yet. there is a list, an endless list, a long _ been done yet. there is a list, an endless list, a long list _ been done yet. there is a list, an endless list, a long list certainlyl endless list, a long list certainty of the differences between men and women and the issues women have had because there isn't enough research. and therefore, women's health has suffered? i and therefore, women's health has suffered? ., and therefore, women's health has suffered? . ., and therefore, women's health has suffered? . . ., suffered? i agree. i agree with a lot of points _ suffered? i agree. i agree with a lot of points there _ suffered? i agree. i agree with a lot of points there and _ suffered? i agree. i agree with a lot of points there and i've - suffered? i agree. i agree with a| lot of points there and i've made them _ lot of points there and i've made them myself here when i said institutionalised misogyny and unfortunately there has been misogyny within the health care sector, — misogyny within the health care sector, but i think appointing her

gatwick airport is reducing the number of daily flights during the summer period to help tackle staffing issues. the airport is planning to limit its number of daily flights to 825 injuly, and 850 in august, compared to a reported 900 daily flights during the same time period in previous years. gatwick says the reduction will allow airlines to manage more predictable timetables. enfield council has launched a consultation on whether to expand its school streets scheme, which would see roads near schools closed to traffic at pick—up and drop—off times. it's designed to improve safety for children and reduce pollution in the areas around schools. so far, 13 are part of the scheme, but the council hope six more willjoin. it's really refreshing that schemes like this are sort of universally welcomed, actually, both by teachers and parents, and local residents. it's not about saying to people, use your car and then parkjust on the edge. it's about saying, if you live close enough to be able to walk,
8:35 am
please do that, and don't use your cars. and as i say, people are really welcoming it. they're hugely popular. if you're heading out on public transport this morning, this is how tfl services are looking right now. on the tube there are minor delays on thejubilee line, but all other lines are running well. onto the weather now with kate kinsella. good morning. it's been quite a warm and humid night. and today, the temperature's set to get warmer. lots of sunshine, uv levels high, pollen count still high. now, yesterday, we got just over 29 celsius, making it the hottest day of the year so far. today, it's likely to exceed that — 32, or even 33 celsius, by the end of the afternoon. so, very warm and also very humid. now, overnight, it's going to be another uncomfortable night. the minimum temperature in central london probably not dropping much below 18 celsius. so, again, not great for sleeping. now for saturday, you can see this cold front move south. it stalls and then it starts to move backwards. so down in the south—east, hanging on to the humid air, it's going to be warm and sunny.
8:36 am
but further north, the home counties, there is a bit more cloud. there's a chance of a shower, although it should stay largely dry. temperatures a bit different — 23 where the cloud is, 27 or 28 where we've still got the sunshine. but that cold front finally moves south overnight, bringing some spells of rain. you might hear the odd rumble of thunder, but you'll notice the cooler air. for sunday, there could be one or two showers, but it is at the moment looking largely dry. breezier day for sunday. but those temperatures are going to feel quite a bit cooler. i'm back with the latest from the bbc london newsroom in half an hour. plenty more on our website at the usual address. hello, this is breakfast with charlie stayt and naga munchetty. 8:36am. we are very much focusing this morning on the cost of living and how it is affecting you. the boss of tesco has said he's beginning to see the effects of inflation in the way customers are shopping.

8:46 am
and this weekend, a year late due to the pandemic, they will mark the 150th anniversary, with a special match played in original costumes and hosted by teddington hockey club, widely regarded as the oldest in the world. i've been there to take a look. in the footsteps of the founders. the youngsters at teddington hockey club today may be playing a very different kind of field hockey to the one that was started 151 years ago. but there's still something special, it seems, about playing for the oldest club in the world. i didn't believe it. i was like, that's not true. i was like, oh, my... i didn't know that. many here were inspired to pick up a hockey stick by more recent events. holly webb on her way to win gold for great britain. webb. turns, scores!

the olympic gold medal won by team gb's women in a thrilling finale at rio in 2016. made me think that hockey is a really good sport and i should play it more. i watched back a clip of that olympics, and the ball was flying around. itjust looked like so much fun. and now i realise it really is. take it round him, take it round him.| itjust changed my life automatically. i wanted to do it. ijust wanted to play. this gold medal changed my life, my team—mates' lives. but then, when you step out of the team, to hear that it's changing lives of the youngsters, inspiring them to, you know, be active, or play hockey itself... as a stand out moment at the olympics was one thing. but to be a stand out moment in the history of your sport, it's incredible to be part of, because the game, it's constantly changing. life is constantly changing. so, to be part of it, to shape what the sport is now, yeah, really proud.
8:48 am
it's now believed the modern version of field hockey started just down the road from where the teddington youngsters are training, in bushy park, the old hunting grounds of hampton court palace, where the deer still roam free, and where teddington cricket club still plays. it was right here at teddington cricket club, on the edge of the park, that it came towards the end of the season and the cricketers, well, they wanted to carry on doing something for the winter. so they had the bright idea — dropping the ball onto the grass, and well, hitting it around with their cricket bats. the thought that the game that's now played in over 100 countries around the world, started right here, is pretty amazing. very quickly, it turned into a proper game, and they set rules, and they set parameters to the pitch. a very different game to what we know now. but if it wasn't for this, who knows? it may not have happened. yeah, so they quickly realised they couldn't use their cricket bat, because it's too unwieldy. so they made something rather thinner and more pliable. and this one is made out of ash. the original sticks
8:49 am
were made out of holly, because it was nice and whippy, and that's the sort of tree they've had in busy park at the time. bats became curved sticks over the years, and the sport spread across the world. played on grass until a revolution started in the 1970s, and the move to artificial pitches transformed the game forever. it means you can play it all year round, something that we weren't able to do before floodlights came in. so, actually, access to hockey's become bigger. you don't have games called off because it's raining. i mean, i started on grass so — it shows my age! but yeah, it's a different game, it really is. the techniques have now changed, so it was very much sort of upright on bumpy grass pitches, stick stopping like that. hitting almost like a golf ball, was it? now the game is all played, very, very low, slap hitting.
8:50 am
yeah. so you've got to bend your knees and get very, very low to the ground. so that's how the game is now played. skills that come naturally to the new generation, it seems, while those returning to the game need to start learning all over again. hands together at the top of the stick. yeah. and you're going to sweep. sweep through the ball. sweep it like a brush. yes, there we go! ok, alex. good. ok, nice and low. chip under. yes! good. you let that go in. next month, there'll be another chance for the game to be in the national spotlight and to attract more players to pick up a stick. that's it, fred well done. the commonwealth games in birmingham, with teams from wales, england and scotland all competing. and it was at the games in glasgow in 2014, that inspired current scotland and teddington star murray collins. i'd been playing hockey as a child in glasgow at the time, and it was amazing to go and watch all these amazing teams,
8:51 am
the top teams in the world. and to see that and to witness that, yeah, it makes it something that feels like a target for the future. so much has changed, but the basics of the game and that thrill of hitting the back of the goal, is still the same as when the first pioneers connected stick with ball. it is why it originally was a winter sport because there was nothing for the cricketers to do in the off—season. thankfully it is now year —— all year round. if you are cycling through bushy park this weekend and you see all these people in 1871 costumes with funny stakes on a cricket pitch playing hockey, you will know why. people will want to go nowjust to see it because it sounds remarkable. have a look at this image. we are going to look at clevedon in somerset. it is like a marine lake. specifically built for swimming. how long does it take to get there?
8:52 am
i have a bit of work to do today, unfortunately. so tempting. any water for me. unfortunately. so tempting. any waterfor me. sarah, i know the weather is variable to say the least across the uk. very warm in the south? it is, yeah. thank you. we have got big contrast in the weather out there today. in the south it is all about the heat. we are expecting the peak of the heatwave across parts of england and wales today. it has gradually been warming up through the week. yesterday temperatures were at 29.5 degrees in london. today, 33, 30 a degrees in london. today, 33, 30 a degrees possible. it is notjust of the heat but the strength of the sunshine. as we approach the summer solstice, very high levels of uv. it is certainly going to be a day for the sun cream. wearing the hats, drinking plenty of water. certainly not the same across all of the uk. we have got real weather types. yes, the south, hot sunshine. humid, strong uv levels. but further north,
8:53 am
for scotland and northern ireland, a cooler, fresher spell of weather, with rain moving through as well. we have a weather front moving in from the north—west. high pressure holding on. it is sitting to the east of the uk. it is drawing on those hot southerly winds. very hot across spain and france. we are importing some of the warm air towards the uk for a brief time of the next few days. today then, for much of england and wales, blue skies, sunshine. some rain in parts of northern ireland, central and southern scotland. northern scotland will have sunshine and a few showers. temperatures in the north, 15 to 21 degrees. towards the south—east corner is where we see the highest temperatures. 33 or 3a degrees. very hot in that strong sunshine. more low cloud and mist drifting in across wales for a time. this evening and overnight the band of cloud moves further south. most of cloud moves further south. most of the rain will fizzle out. it is the dividing line between the
8:54 am
cooler, fresher air in the north, nine or 10 degrees, hot and muggy overnight. uncomfortable for sleeping in the south. 17 or 18 degrees. into saturday to make some hot and humid air in the south. fresher in the north. with the dividing line in between, some heavy rain across parts of wales, the midlands, lincolnshire, south—west england. thunderstorms around. temperatures are likely to reach 28 degrees towards the south—east corner. but most of us are starting to be in fresher air. typically the mid to high teens. overnight and into sunday the red shift south. a change in the cards at the time we get to sunday. still a few heavy showers. perhaps the odd rumble of thunder in the south. with northerly winds, temperatures typically around 13 to 19 degrees by the time we get to sunday. thing is really changing a lot, particularly in the south, where we have got a heatwave around at the moment. if you are not a fan of the heat and humidity, you will be pleased to know that with the cooler air moving in, be pleased to know that with the coolerair moving in, we be pleased to know that with the cooler air moving in, we have got a bit of relief. some pressure
8:55 am
conditions on the way. do remember, it is going to be hot and we have got some very high uv levels. strong sunshine. well worth remembering. thank you. from london, let's take it to one of wales's highest mountains. to the top of it, in fact. it is breezy. to say it is fresh would be an understatement. john maguire, tell us what you are doing. it looks like you are on top of the world. yeah, it feels like we are on top of the world, naga. absolutely stunning morning. hello from pen y fan. the views of the brecon beacons below us. almost 3000 feet high. absolutely spectacular. blowing a holy. in one ear and out the other. i can hardly hear myself think. early morning people have come up here. over here is why we are here. a 24—hour game of touch rugby is taking place in memory of andrew williams, a member of brecon rugby
