in england and parts of wales, an amber warning for extreme heat has begun. a cargo plane has crashed in northern greece. eight people were on board. the five remaining candidates for british prime minister will battle it out in their second tv debate later. the multi—faith celebrations bringing people together during sri lanka's political and economic unrest. we have special reports. and your mission, should you choose to accept it, is to find out if the hollywood superstar tom cruise is filming in the lake district. will be back with more of those at 11 o'clock. now on bbc news, it's time for click.

this week, things get heavy on the ice as one sport tackles concussion head on. early alzheimer's, headaches, still fairly nauseous. we show you everything about the nothing phone. everything? everything. we are at the french football stadium connecting fans to their heroes. and we meet the newest player on the pitch. i reckon even i could tackle him. sport, we love it. it's fun to watch, fun to play, there's huge money at stake — but there is always the risk of injury. we are becoming more aware of the long—term health effects associated with playing certain sports, and that includes the effects of concussion, which can be catastrophic in later life. it's not surprising. even the odd time i have watched a bit of boxing or rugby, the number of hits to the head that people get. and it is notjust even on contact sport. in something like

cycling or snow sports you can have an accident and sustain a head injury. one of the sports that has not studied the effects of concussion as much as other sports is one of the most terrifying sports to watch and that canada's national winter sport, ice hockey. but the university of british columbia is undertaking a five year study to take a look at the impact of concussion on the sport. mar cieslak has been finding out more. ice hockey is tough. it is fast. it's a sport where contact has become as much a part of the game as sticks, pucks and the cold. it is physical and it is filled with ways for players to injure themselves. while awareness of concussion and impact trauma in sports has increased in the last few years and filled headlines, researchers continue to study the issues. but does technology

really have a place to play in making sports like this one safer? it is a massive concern. so in ice hockey, i think it is one of the most common injuries sustained by hockey players. i played 17 years professional hockey, and former hockey players that i know that have cognitive issues, whether it's early alzheimer's to headaches to still feeling nauseous. here at the university of british columbia researchers are undertaking a study of concussion with help from the college's ice hockey team, the ubc thunderbirds. dr alex rauscher heads up the team — his neck injury is unrelated to his work. concussion is a result of a hit to the head, but it can also be elsewhere on the body, that leads to accelerations of the brain inside the skull and means that the brain hits the skull from the inside and that can cause injury.

i want to try to understand the accumulation of those repetitive impacts that hockey players sustain, and how it affects long—term brain health. the team at ubc are making use of a variety of different technologies such as smart mouthguards which are fitted with sensors. the real novelty in the mouthguard is it is has got a really good mechanical coupling with the sculpt so you can get a good representation of what impacts the players have sustained, how hard they get hit and what direction the impact is occurring. mri scan allows us to quantify the myelin in the brain. the myelin sheaht, which is the insulating substance around the nerve fibres in the brain, is damaged after a concussion. it is something that was developed at ubc, so it is not widely available, it is relatively new. sports like rugby have made

use of various wearable technologies like mouthguard sensors for some time, but most of the data gathered around concussion in sports has been from male players. as dr izzy moore, who specialises in rugby, explains. actually, we don't have really good data in the women's game. we're almost using the men's game as representative of every other stages of the game. we are getting there with the women's game, but we are lagging miles behind. it is very clear that there is a minority of studies that are focused on the female brain as an example. what is an almost paradox in some ways is that females in later life are more susceptible to developing dementia, relative to the males. the ubc study will compare male and female players across several season in an effort to glean as much information as possible about the differences between male and female players.

while wearable sensors provide information about the number of times a player is hit and the amount of force that's exerted on them during the impact, there is debate among some experts that more attention needs to be focused on prevention of impacts in the first place. i would say it is important to prevent those, and that will be done by changing the rules of ice hockey, making it less aggressive. in rugby specifically there have been changes to the laws of the game, in particular the event that causes concussions is the tackle. sanctions have been put in place to try and reduce the occurrence of these high tackles. however, unfortunately, since those changes in law have come into place, we have not seen a change in concussion. but is there a danger that too many changes could fundamentally alter a sport like ice hockey? i don't want to be one of those

coaches like back when i used to play where you played hockey and there is body contact allowed and there is no real teaching on how to take a hit, how to give a hit, how to protect yourself. now i do a lot of work with minor hockey, we spend a lot of time with kids this tall learning how to give a check, accept a check, how to protect yourself in the corners. our understanding of the dangers of contact in sport continues to grow. rule changes occur and training improves, but work continues to make sports safer. mark there. more and more tech is being used in sport. some of it for the players, but also some it for the fans to help enhance their experience. one of the biggest fans we know is is paul carter, so when he heard the orange velodrome in marseille was experimenting with some of those ideas, he was there.

this is the stade velodrome, home of olympique de marseille, home of one of france's largest football clubs, and to date the only french team to have won the champions league in 1993. i visited on the eve of theirfinal game of the 2021-22 season, a must win a game against strasbourg that will determine their qualification for europe's top competition once again. on match days like this access to these parts of the stadium is usually only reserved for a select few people. but here they are using technology to bring supporters and players that little bit closer together. a range of technologies have been introduced into the stadium in a bid to enhance watching a game by enabling interactions usually only available to those watching on television. these include cameras with full ball and player tracking, enabling overlays and statistics to be displayed in real time along with replays and highlights. oh, and there is also

a telepresence robot. we have a fully dedicated wireless infrastructure inside the stadium, because there are 67,000 people who want to share their emotion outside the stadium so we deploy infrastructures to complete our 5g network. you can have an app on your smartphone, you can click and collect food and beverage so you can order where you sit. you have the replays in five angles with some cameras and you can move back and forward and see all of the action. many broadcasters and clubs around the world are experimenting with his kind of in—game content, and it remains to be seen how mainstream it will become. but in the ever ongoing quest for experiences, clubs are wanting to go further. i was keen to try out another piece of kit that has been deployed here.

it is called le vitre, and it's a human—sized digital window enabling conversations to take place remotely. la vitre is a simple way to teleport the right people in the right place. it can be used like here for access to the tunnel for events. it can be used in the workspace to bring people closer. the screen also has a built—in capability to live translate conversations on the fly. participants also have the ability to draw on the screen as well as share content with each other in real time. but what are the applications of tech like this in a football stadium? well, marseille have installed la vitre�*s screens in the player tunnel, giving fans with access to one of its vip lounges a virtual window into a normally

off—limits area. premier league club manchester city have introduced vip tunnel access, but behind physical glass. this is the first of its kind virtual tunnel access. i will be honest — once the game kicked off, i was unsure if any tech was needed to enhance the experience. i've watched games all around the world, and it was certainly one of the loudest stadiums i've ever been out. —— one of the loudest stadiums i've ever been at. it was helped by the fact that marseille got the results they needed and secured a champions league spot. after the game, i spoke with marseille�*s brazilian defender luan peres. thank you forjoining us, thank you for stopping to speak to me. what a night! how do you feel? speaks portuguese. now, unfortunately, though you could see my questions translated into portuguese, someone at the other end

pressed the wrong button and his answers were translated into french on my screen. but you can definitely see the potential for tools like this, particularly for the media to be able to carry out interviews at an emotional time in a language everyone is most comfortable in. tech is already changing football both on and off the field. but time will tell how much of an appetite among regular supporters there is for these kinds of interactions. hello, time for a look at this week's tech news and first, click news can exclusively reveal that the upcoming bbc gaming prom will feature an arrangement of 90s gaming soundtracks including pokemon, secret of manna and ecco the dolphin. this is on top of already announced performances of tracks from kingdom hearts, shadow of the colossus and battlefield 2042. nasa has unveiled the first full colour image from the james webb space telescope, and they are incredible.

according to the space organisation, the revolutionary telescope aims to peer through the cosmos to the dawn of the universe. the webb telescope is going to bring us so many new discoveries, we don't even know what the questions are that are going to be answered. the 2022 american solar challenge is coming to a close. the competition requires people to design, build, test and drive a solar powered vehicle 1,400 miles across the us in a bid to test the reliability and endurance of solar car systems. and from solar cars to solar planes — because flight tracking data suggest that airbus has broken the record for the longest flight of an unmanned aircraft. the solar powered airbus zephyr s has spent 27 continuous days airborne, beating the record it set when we saw it first in 2018. the tech industry may be one of the most lucrative in the uk, but it has a problem

with recruitment. with over 2 million jobs advertised last year, the issue was there weren't enough people with the skills to fill them. which i find surprising, but it turns out it is still difficult to get students interested in particular tech skills like coding, which you need in all walks of life. take note, future city bankers. so how do we get people upskilled and into those jobs? shiona mccallum has been on the case. the uk technology scene is bursting with opportunity. something that ben francis, the founder of online clothing company gymshark knows well. i can't believe i am stood here saying this, but gymshark is worth $1.1; billion. my name is ben francis, and i am the ceo and founder of gymshark. we are coming up to a point now where there is clearly so much change going on in the world, and with so much change comes opportunity, and i think it is people through tech who will solve some of the most

complex problems we currently have. can you give us your best careers advice? if you are a great graphic designer, if you're a great web designer, if you want to create great apps, nfts at the moment, all of these different things, all of that is done through tech, and i think having a basic understanding of tech and development is going to be really, really important moving forward. despite the tech sector being one of the highest paid in the uk with an average salary of £62,000 — that is double the average household income — the sector is still struggling to get skilled people into thejobs. it is a real issue, we have well funded companies that have raised investment and are celebrating the fact they have got great investors on board, but what they need to spend that on is fantastic people to help them grow and help them on theirjourney. and they can't always find them at the right time or with the right skills they need. so there is a real shortage that threatens to stifle growth if we can't rectify it. one place which is teaching

young people important tech subjects is ada. so ijoined them for a lesson on coding. the college was initially founded to address the digital skills gap, but unfortunately i think over time it is just getting greater. our students come to ada because they want that industry centred education, they know their future is in technology and they want to be in a place where we can give them the best opportunities to go into those digital roles. these students have just taken our exams and will find out the results later this summer. and i guess the question for the guys here is, what's next for them? is it university or will they take on a digital apprenticeship? facebook and google are two major tech companies who take on apprentices, training them in a range of different roles like software engineering and app developing. they are incentivised to run the scheme because they pay the government levy, which helps fund the costs. it is certainly, and

unsurprisingly, popular with their latest recruits. i got to work on some open source work, i did some android, building some of ourframeworks that we use facebook for. the good thing about the apprenticeship programme is you get such a range of skills as you work through three different teams, you work with the best tools that we have. meta is such a big company, we impact so many people, we work with some of the best engineers and you are just constantly learning throughout the programme. traditionally apprenticeships were for young people getting an education, but statistics show that for some subjects like data analysts, over 80% of them are actually over 25 years old. i think it is about people changing careers as much as people starting careers. and we have got lots of examples of both, we have got people who have come straight out of college into an apprenticeship programme, we have people who have a couple of years experience but in a field but doesn't suit them or is a bit unstable, they wanted to change careers and we have given

them that opportunity. there are real opportunities here, and if you are willing to embrace it and put in some hard work, then you can increase your economic outlook as an individual. the uk government have told us they want to help people get the skills they need to fill the gaps. we will find out in the coming months if this remains a priority under the new prime minister. we are launching lle, which will be a scheme that gives everybody £37,000 that they can access for four years of study at higher education or higher education at further education and that can be drawn down in modules, making our education system much more flexible, making sure that individuals are in the driving seat of the education system so they can go and reskill or upskill and get the job that they want. the skills shortage isn't going away, but if you are a young person, getting into tech could provide you with a lifelong career and financial security. but the key seems to be — take matters into your own hands.

would you encourage people to kind of go down the startup route and build their own thing as an entrepreneur, orjoin one of the big tech companies? i think there is a lot to be said for having a greatjob, because you can learn great things from some of these businesses. the whole binary choice of working a job or starting a business, i don't think you need to do that anymore. i worked at pizza hut until gymshark was turning over hundreds of thousands of dollars, and only when i was really comfortable with the business did i then take that leap and move out of working at pizza hut. so i genuinely think now the best solution in the short term, given the wider economic uncertainty, would probably be to do both if you can. a few years ago we went and visited a company called oneplus, a chinese outfit that makes phones with specs that rival the best phones made here in the west. the man who runs the company is called carl pei and he now has a company which is called...

nothing. it's called nothing, and it makes nothing. the nothing ear, and now the nothing phone. and zoe kleinman has interviewed carl to talk about... nothing. this is the nothing phone. i will start by showing you the thing that makes it different, and the thing everybody�*s talking about, because that is the back. you look at it here, you can see it is translucent on the back and there are hundreds of little led lights forming these distinct patterns here. and the idea is that they double up as notifications. i will show you quickly what i mean. if ijust go into the settings here and get the ringtones. there are some preprogrammed so you can see that one just comes up with a flashing light on the corner, you have got this... beeping. if you have the phone face down

you can see from the lights what kind of a notification you are getting, and you can even attach a particular ringtone to a particular contact, so you can see who is calling you without having to turn the phone over. while we are talking about the actual physical phone, it's worth saying that this device is on the chunky side. let me show you what i mean. i have got a little pile here of phones, various makes, and let me put the nothing one on top. you can see how much thicker it is compared the others. now what's the biggest thing inside a phone these days? it is of course the battery. nothing says that the battery on this phone is good for 18 hours between charges. now i have been using this phone for four days and i have only charged it once so far. but what i have is a production unit, so i haven't got anything on it, so i have had to handpick some apps. fundamentally what is inside this phone is a standard midrange android phone. if you are used to using android phones you will be used to using this.

nothing is quite proud of its environmental credentials here, it says it has used 100% recycled aluminium in all of its phones, and that over 50% of the plastic components are either recycled or from a bio—based source. let me tell you a little bit about the camera. it has got a 50 megapixel camera on the back, 16 megapixels on the front which is perfectly fine for taking selfies. ultimately there has been so much hype around this phone, it has had thousands of preorders, and that suggests people are quite keen to get their hands on it. but given the current economic climate, is a translucent back and some funky lights enough to persuade people to part with their money? the challenges for nothing are immense. they have so many different things. set to one side launching a mobile phone into a market which is totally dominated by two giants, apple and samsung, who have almost unlimited resources in marketing and channel and reach and brand — you have also got the really tough economic headwinds

right now. people are really reviewing how they look at their mobile phone, will they keep it for longer, do they need to upgrade the one they have got, and do they want to take a risk on a brand that they don't know? the nothing phone was designed by carl pei, who co—founded the phone brand oneplus. his new firm is based in the uk. you've managed to create quite a buzz, haven't you, around the product. i was tweeting this week that there was too much. too much, you have created too much of a buzz? we didn't expect it. we knew people be paying attention, because the industry has been stagnant, and usbringing something new to the market, a lot of people would want to know what it is, but the amount of interest has blown our minds. why did you call it nothing? well, there is an official answer and an unofficial answer. the official answer

is as technology becomes more and more seamless and intertwined and ingrained in our lives, itjust fades into the background and it is so easy to use, it feels like nothing. but the truth is i had a lot of other names, and i was discussing with my little sister about all these different names i had, and she told me they were all really bad, so eventually i said, "ok, i am just going to call it nothing". and she said, "yeah, yeah, do that, that is really good." do you think you can energise the market in the way you want to? i think based on all the anticipation and excitement out there right now, we are well on our way to do that. but ultimately the real test is the product itself. zoe there talking to carl pei, and what did we learn? nothing. in the nicest possible way. and that's all we have time for. yeah, thanks for watching, we will see you soon. bye— bye.

heat continues to build today. we are expecting unprecedented temperatures by monday, in excess potentially of a0 degrees. that has resulted in the met office issuing the first ever extreme heat warning. the areas are fairly widespread. this could have a direct impact on the infrastructure of where you live but also on your health. so this is the red warning. but at the same time we do have amber extreme heat warnings enforced from sunday to tuesday, covering the whole of england, wales, and southern scotland. that said, we have seen rain today. during the early hours of sunday morning. it is starting to ease away. it is fairly light and patchy. just like drizzle now across eastern england and eventually we

will have sunshine coming through. temperatures will climb this afternoon potentially across parts of eastern england, maybe we will see highs of 31, 32 degrees, and temperatures even recovering to the mid 20s in eastern scotland once the rain clears. overnight, clearskies, temperatures won't fall away. patchy cloud and drizzle to the north but it is this a cumulative effect of heat by day and very warm nights that certainly could have quite a significant impact on your lifestyle. as we move into monday, it is pretty much wall—to—wall sunshine from the word go and with light winds and that heat coming all the way up from spain and portugal we are likely to see those temperatures peaking widely into the mid to high 30s but a couple of spots could see a0, a01 degrees. that is monday afternoon. just take a look at ten o'clock monday evening. —— a1 degrees. those temperatures not falling far. very uncomfortable. in the 30s and that

will be very oppressive and potentially dangerous, so please take precautions. i have a glimmer of good news. into tuesday, these weather fronts push in from the south—west. they will drag in more humidity. if you have the sunshine it'll be even more oppressive for many but it'll start to bring some welcome showers, possibly heavy and thundery across south—west england and wales and northern ireland. the temperatures a little bit fresher but we could still see temperatures close to orjust above a0 degrees across eastern england. something a bit more comfortable arrives from wednesday onwards. take care.

portugal a7 degrees this is bbc news with the latest headlines for viewers in the uk and around the world. thousands of firefighters continue to battle wildfires across europe — many people have died from the intense heat. in england and parts of wales, an amber warning for extreme heat has begun. a cargo plane has crashed in northern greece — killing all eight people on board. the five remaining candidates for british prime minister will battle it out in their second tv debate later. i think what people want is an end to the toxic politics that we have seen over the last few months, they want to someone that can restore trust. that can restore trust. and — your mission — should you choose to accept it — is to find out if the hollywood superstar, tom cruise is filming

in the british lake district.
