and compassion really shone through and that is very much what deborah has done even in her most difficult personal days, she has never stopped helping other people. she has never stopped shining a light on bowel cancer and she has never stopped raising that awareness and will undoubtedly have saved countless lives. she has never stopped going and i think, you know, we knew she was gravely ill but she will be so very much missed by everyone whose lives that she has touched. ianthem very much missed by everyone whose lives that she has touched.— lives that she has touched. when you first met her — lives that she has touched. when you first met her in _ lives that she has touched. when you first met her in your— lives that she has touched. when you first met her in your capacity - lives that she has touched. when you first met her in your capacity as - first met her in your capacity as head of the charity, did you see to do something about this, tell me how i can help or hurt of the conversation go? the other motive in doing that long before ijoined cancer uk. she did it from day one of her diagnosis and that was over five years ago now. and she has raised awareness. she supported our charity. she became feature of a charity. she became feature of a charity last year. and also, as you heard earlier, supported countless other charities supporting people
10:47 pm
with bowel cancer and she has been, i think, you with bowel cancer and she has been, ithink, you know, her star shone so bright and we talk about people being an inspiration but she really was. she has inspired so many people and i've spoken to them. also affected by bowel cancer. he thought, if she can go out and talk about it i will do the same thing. it is about so many conversations about a disease which he wouldn't talk about very much. and i do think that, you know, one of the things we are determined to make sure is that it does not slip into the dark again. that we keep her remarkable legacy going and keep those conversations going because they are the ones when people talk about things, they act on things and it saves lives. she had that frankness and honesty about her as well discussing things that perhaps other people are embarrassed to discuss
10:48 pm
about diagnosing the cancer in the first place. is that something that was unique to her as well, do you think, on a public stage? i was unique to her as well, do you think, on a public stage?- think, on a public stage? i think she did it really, _ think, on a public stage? i think she did it really, really - think, on a public stage? i think she did it really, really well. - think, on a public stage? i think| she did it really, really well. she always talked about camino, she always talked about camino, she always signed off with check your view. it is not something people are necessarily comfortable with saying that it necessarily comfortable with saying thatitis necessarily comfortable with saying that it is the reality and as he is often said, this is a bit of your boiler day gesture, everybody has it and she has really helped to kind of normalise those conversations and make them easy to have and i think thatis make them easy to have and i think that is hugely, hugely important. it is the fourth most common cancer and yet we don't talk very much about it and she is change that. and i think thatis and she is change that. and i think that is a phenomenal legacy and it is not, you know, that is part of what she has done. so much else that she has achieved. and she has been

10:50 pm
thank you very much indeed speaking to us. hello and welcome to our look ahead to what the the papers will be bringing us tomorrow. with me are the political commentator, polly mackenzie, and the editor of the house magazine, rosa prince. tomorrow's front pages. starting with. the metro leads with the sentencing of ghislaine maxwell — pointing out she'll be nearly 80 when she finishes her 20 year prison sentence the i focuses on the plan for a new scottish independence referendum — which was announced earlier by nicola sturgeon the guardian says it puts the snp on a collision course with westminster over the legality of the vote the main story in the ft is today's hearing into the riot at the us capitol — and the testimony that donald trump wanted tojoin in, according to one of his aides.
10:51 pm
so let's begin. welcome to you both. sorry we came to bed later but we had the sad news of dame deborahjames. can we start with you on the metro? seems quite an old—fashioned headline from the 19705, glenn maxwell cage for 20 years, like something out of old fleet street, isn't it? —— mike d what did you think of the judge's sentencing in light of what the guidelines were? it sentencing in light of what the guidelines were?— sentencing in light of what the guidelines were? it seems about appmpriate- _ guidelines were? it seems about appmpriate- it — guidelines were? it seems about appropriate. it was _ guidelines were? it seems about appropriate. it was harrowing - guidelines were? it seems about appropriate. it was harrowing to | appropriate. it was harrowing to hear the stories of the victims, of epstein and ghislaine maxwell in the sentencing hearing and as she said,
10:52 pm
she called it a harsh sentence. i don't think it is particularly harsh. she hopes it brings them closure or something, at least. i guess, the problem for me is that ghislaine maxwell trafficked women to clients and the clients remain completely missing in action. we know about the accusations that heaven levelled against prince andrew and, you know, he is mentioned on one the front pages is possibly a new target but that is one name. the rest of this kind of mystery of who these women were abused by as a result of the work that epstein and ghislaine maxwell did, remains exactly that, a mystery. justice will not be served until those clients are also brought before the criminaljustice system which i hope the fbi will at least
10:53 pm
begin to address. she which i hope the fbi will at least begin to address. she addressed the court in detail— begin to address. she addressed the court in detail for _ begin to address. she addressed the court in detail for the _ begin to address. she addressed the court in detail for the first _ begin to address. she addressed the court in detail for the first time. - court in detail for the first time. there was an apology. the biggest regret of her life ever meeting jeffrey epstein. do you think it went far enough? a lot of the victim said it wasn't, a hollow apology? say about the result actually an apology. she said she regretted meeting him. that was very much for herself so she said the hoped that it bought the victims closure. she did not say i'm sorry i did this and in fact, she really sought to portray herself as a victim herself. there has been some debate around that. where she herself groomed? was she also a victim? to my that doesn't really stand out. i interviewed one of the victims his sister_ interviewed one of the victims his sister actually testified in court as well— sister actually testified in court as well and she told me in great detail_ as well and she told me in great detail how— as well and she told me in great detail how she would not have been abused _ detail how she would not have been abused were not for ghislaine maxwell— abused were not for ghislaine maxwell being kind of the conduit to him, maxwell being kind of the conduit to him. too _ maxwell being kind of the conduit to him, too epstein. so, no, ithink it does not _ him, too epstein. so, no, ithink it does not go — him, too epstein. so, no, ithink it does not go far enough. the maximum is 55 years. _ does not go far enough. the maximum is 55 years, we should have meant

10:55 pm
all that they focus on is getting out of the uk instead of governing scotland well. and we know that there are huge problems with drug addiction, with underperforms of schools, the underperformance of the nhs and whilst this debate goes on and they get a constitutional fight, does allow the story to continue to focus on scotland's role in the union instead of on the lives of the scottish people. the union instead of on the lives of the scottish people-— scottish people. the same story in the guardian _ scottish people. the same story in the guardian alongside _ scottish people. the same story in the guardian alongside a _ scottish people. the same story in the guardian alongside a picture i scottish people. the same story in j the guardian alongside a picture of deborahjames mo will come to that in a moment if have time. what do you think? the united kingdom, voluntary union of all the different parts. i do think scottish public opinion stands on this? we know that borisjohnson himself is not at all popular in scotland but what about the drive, the clamour for independence now in terms of polling? independence now in terms of ollin: ? , ., �* , independence now in terms of ollina? �*, , polling? the government's response until now was _ polling? the government's response until now was that _ polling? the government's response until now was that they _ polling? the government's response until now was that they would - polling? the government's response until now was that they would not i until now was that they would not consider— until now was that they would not consider a —

thought from the _ the next couple of years. final thought from the guardian. i the next couple of years. f rial thought from the guardian. a the next couple of years. f magi. thought from the guardian. a picture of dame deborahjames. a real impact on the country and indeed on every cancer sufferer even though she was suffering from bowel cancer herself. a phenomenal campaigner and fundraiser. a generous, kind hearted, passionate speaker. i think we all will grieve her last. but she leaves behind an extraordinary though gutsy. that most of us can only dream of. i though gutsy. that most of us can only dream of-_ only dream of. i am sorry this is a much shorter _ only dream of. i am sorry this is a much shorter pay-per-view - only dream of. i am sorry this is a much shorter pay-per-view this i only dream of. i am sorry this is a - much shorter pay-per-view this time. much shorter pay—per—view this time. hopefully a bit longer at 11:30pm but thank you both very much indeed for that first look at the first editions of the papers. there's been some big contrasts weather—wise across the uk during the day today. we've had plenty of sunshine across central and eastern england, and with temperatures into the low—205 felt pleasantly warm. whereas in the west, we had a weather front bringing thicker cloud and outbreaks of rain — heavy rain, at that — for parts of western scotland. the rain tied in with this
10:58 pm
particularly slow—moving area of low pressure that'll be with us, really, through the rest of this week, with rain or showers in the forecast, well, pretty much every day. now overnight tonight, a band of rain will push eastwards across central and eastern england, eastern areas of scotland seeing some wet weather. a few showers in the west, temperatures staying into double figures, so a relatively mild start to the day for tomorrow. we start off with a band of rain, then, moving away quite quickly from eastern scotland, eastern england, and then, essentially, it's a day of sunshine and showers. the showers heavy with some thunderstorms in scotland, and some of the showers will tend to line up into a band across southwest england, so there could be some areas here that see lots of showers. fewer showers and the war.
11:00 pm
