good morning. welcome to breakfast with rogerjohnson and luxmy gopal. our headlines today: borisjohnson promises more help for eye—watering energy bills. but says the detail won't be announced until next month by the new prime minister. churches across liverpool remember nine—year—old olivia pratt—korbel almost a week after she was shot dead at her home. desperation as floods devastate pakistan: the government appeals for international assistance as more than 1000 people are killed and millions more displaced. liverpool's season's back on track: they thrash bournemouth 9—0 to equal the biggest victory

in premier league history. good morning. there is a lot of dry weather to come today although some light and patti went across the north—west first thing in the morning. forthose north—west first thing in the morning. for those that are desperate to see some heavy rain, i think i can see someone at the distant horizon. i will tell you more about that a little bit later on. good morning. it's sunday, 28th august. our main story: the prime minister has said whoever succeeds him will announce another huge package of financial support to help people cope with soaring energy bills this winter. writing in the mail on sunday, boris johnson acknowledged that the next few months would be difficult, as households face sky—high costs, but he added that the uk will emerge �*stronger on the other side'. the price cap set by the regulator 0fgem will rise by 80% in october. that means the typical annual energy bill, paid by direct debt,

will increase from 1,971 pounds to more than 3,500 pounds. pre—payment meter customers will pay an average of 3,608 pounds. 0ur political correspondent ben wright has more on this. with the country facing crippling energy bills, people are desperately worried about the price hikes coming in at this autumn and then further increases, even bigger ones over the winter and into the spring of next year and the government is under immense pressure to come up with another package of support, some answers about what they are going to do to soften the blow. the problem is it is a government in limbo. there is a tory leadership contest under way and borisjohnson�*s under way and boris johnson's ministers under way and borisjohnson�*s ministers can't act until there is a new prime minister in place. boris johnson has written an article in which he says that whoever takes over, there will be a huge package of financial support. the big question is what that will mean. the

two candidates, rishi sunak and liz truss, have talked about some ideas. rishi sunak talked about a vat cut. ms truss has talked about knocking green energy levies off bills and bringing in a emergency help. that is incredibly frustrating for people. the problem is we are talking about complex problems and support packages that could cost billions, tens of billions of pounds. labour have put forward a plan to freeze the price. energy companies have come up with their own way of freezing the press two years but these are, as i said, really complex problems. the next prime minister has got the job of sorting this out and, frankly, it will define their first few in office. at 8:30 this morning, we'll be talking to a panel of experts about rising energy costs. lots of people yesterday were getting in touch and talking about this. it is an issue for all of us.

email your questions to bbcbrea kfast@bbc. co. uk. that is at 830 this morning with our panel of experts. churches across liverpool will be remembering 0livia pratt—korbel today, almost a week after the nine—year—old was shot dead in her home. the school live to liverpool. 0ur reporter phil mccann is at the scene for us. phil, good morning to you. those flowers have grown over the course of the week. lots of tribute still being paid to this little girl? yes. being paid to this little girl? yes, rouer. being paid to this little girl? yes, roger. tributes _ being paid to this little girl? yes, roger. tributes as _ being paid to this little girl? yes, roger. tributes as you _ being paid to this little girl? ye: roger. tributes as you mentioned that you can see behind me from a shocked community here. one of the most notable tributes came when there was an applause in the ninth minute a nine—year—old 0livia, a chorus of, "you will never walk alone." the captainjordan henderson or a special t—shirt as well and today as you mentioned there are going to be church services across

liverpool and across wider merseyside where 0livia is going to be remembered as the police investigation into what happened here in this suburban part of north liverpool continues. last night, merseyside police announced that two men who had been arrested on suspicion of murder and attempted murder had been released on bail. 0ne murder had been released on bail. one of them has been recalled to prison for breaching the terms of his licence. those two men were both arrested by armed police. the second of them arrested as children and parents watched on. this is a community then that is desperate for answers. we are now five days on from the morning that liverpool and merseyside work up to the news and obviously that a nine—year—old had been shot dead in her own home by a man that was chasing someone who was completely unknown to 0livia man that was chasing someone who was completely unknown to olivia and her family. completely unknown to olivia and her famil . �* . ~ completely unknown to olivia and her famil . �* ., ~ ,, , . family. bill, thank you very much. phil mccann _ family. bill, thank you very much. phil mccann there. _ let's have a look at some of the

days of the news. more than 1000 people have been killed and millions more have been forced from their homes as floods have devastated pakistan in one of the worst monsoon disasters to hit the country. pakistan's prime minister has said the "magnitude of the calamity" is greater than expected, with around 15 percent of the country's population hit by the floods. officials in the country blame climate change for the devastation and are appealing for more international aid. the birth father of tony hudgell has had his release from prison blocked under new powers to protect the public. tony, now seven, was so badly abused as a baby he needed to have both legs amputated. his birth parents, anthony smith and jody simpson, were jailed for 10 years in 2018. smith was due for release next month, halfway through his sentence, but his case will now be reviewed by the parole board. dutch police say at least three people have been killed and several more injured after a truck crashed into a street party near rotterdam. it's understood the lorry veered off the road and rolled into a neighbourhood barbecue

just south of the city. the driver has been arrested. the cause of the crash is not yet known. there's a warning that the impact of ongoing strikes by bin collectors in scotland could pose a risk to human health. public health scotland has highlighted the dangers of a build—up of food, animal and human waste, and says councils may have to decontaminate areas where bins have overflowed. talks aimed at ending the dispute over pay have continued, but no agreement has yet been reached. the streets of west london will come alive with vibrant colours, extravagant costumes and electrifying music today, following the return of the notting hill carnival for the first time in three years. 0rganisers have been hard at work preparing for europe's largest street party as millions of people come together over the bank holiday weekend to celebrate african—caribbean culture. greg mckenzie reports. it is the world's carnival europe's

individual sectors, haven't we? well, that is possibly one of the plans stop that is all in protest against the rising cost of living. and the sun on sunday reports that prince andrew's loyal daughters, princesses beatrice and eugenie, have asked prince charles to allow their dad to return to royal duties. having a look of —— at a couple of the stories inside. somebody has pulled this out for us who has a real thing about air travel and space because this is talking about the plan to go back to the moon. nasa about to launch a rocket to go back to the moon and on a similar theme, that one is in it the observer... if theme, that one is in it the observer. . ._ theme, that one is in it the observer... , ., ., observer... if space is too far and ou observer... if space is too far and you don't — observer... if space is too far and you don't want — observer... if space is too far and you don't want to _ observer... if space is too far and you don't want to go _ observer... if space is too far and you don't want to go to _ observer. .. if space is too far and you don't want to go to far- observer... if space is too far and | you don't want to go to far north, then try this... you don't want to go to far north, then try this. . ._ then try this... this is in the reach of _ then try this... this is in the reach of more _ then try this. .. this is in the reach of more usual- then try this... this is in the reach of more usual people. then try this... this is in the - reach of more usual people. the son of concord will get you everywhere.

most of england and wales but could find an odd passing shower for north wales or northern england and for northern ireland, where this morning we will see patchy outbreaks of light rain, rain will probably start to ease a little bit the afternoon but there is still the risk of a little bit of damp weather for some. same is true for western scotland with light and patchy rain stop the afternoon probably turning dry and temperature similar to those of yesterday, widely into the low 20s but peaking at 2a or 25, warm when the sunshine comes out. 0vernight, probably some more rain developing for a time across northern areas of england, north wales, perhaps northern ireland but otherwise a fair bit of cloud around in temperatures similar to us now, 10-14. temperatures similar to us now, 10-14_ forthose temperatures similar to us now, 10-14_ for those with the bank holiday monday, not too bad. a few showers around northern england a normal males and perhaps northern scotland but the emphasis is on a lot of dry weather. thanks north

wales. north, north—easterly winds from the north sea. —— north wales. the warmest weather towards southern wales in south—west england with temperatures peaking at 25 degrees and it is the return of the notting hill carnival after a little covid pause. a lot of dry weather to come, the tiny chance of a shower but essentially it should stay dry. high pressure stays in charge of the weather well into next week and will continue to see largely find conditions with spells of sunshine coming and going, temperatures not changing or many, into the low 20s for a lot of us, warm when the sunshine comes out but we have those hosepipes in place across parts of england and wales. a number of people want to see rain and i can see a big change in our weather patterns on the horizon through friday and into next weekend, low pressure moving in. not cold, pulling up warm air but some rain around, quite heavy with the risk of

low cloud falling but the rain is at least needed and that could be with us for quite some time as we head into the first week of september. quite a long way off but rain on the distant horizon. that is what will be welcome news to a lot of people, especially gardeners. thank you. neighbours, of course, came to an end not long ago. home and away is still going strong, and superfan, julia hales, has watched all 5800 episodes. that doesn't seem that many. fewer than 6000. but has always wondered why there's no one like her in the cast. now she's created a play about her quest to become the first person with down syndrome to appear in the show, and it's being performed at the edinburgh international festival. pauline mclean reports.

this time on weather world — record heat, drought and the fire that ripped through people's homes at the end of the uk's hottest day. as temperatures hit a0 celsius for the first time, i'll hear about london fire brigade's busiest day since world war two. and why wildfires are a growing problem. and i'm talking to the scientist whose near real—time analysis has shown how climate change has supercharged this summer's weather extremes. they'll show me a0 degrees in the uk is virtually impossible without climate change and why hotter heatwaves matter. we have 40 degrees. many more people die than if we just have 36 degrees. and that is — that is a huge difference. also on weather world — devastating drought for east africa, facing an unprecedented fifth consecutive failed rainy season. and how the same weather pattern could bring yet more flooding rain to eastern australia.

this is weather world. this is wennington, a small village which, despite being in east london, is surrounded by a lot of grassland and farmland. it was a place that few people outside the local area would've heard of until disaster hit, when a devastating wildfire swept through the village at the end of the day when the uk hit a0 degrees celsius for the very first time. tonight at 10:00, the uk has today recorded its highest ever temperature — a0.3 degrees celsius in lincolnshire. july the 19th — the day the uk reached a temperature that once seemed impossible and with extreme heat, fire. in wennington, a small blaze soon became an inferno that destroyed 19 homes.

i needed to leave and so, i left and went to my local church, �*cos we've got a community church. but after spending a few minutes in the church, then we realised that the church ground was also on fire, so we were told to evacuate the church. i was sunbathing in my garden and then, a massive black cloud's come across. i looked up, that side of wennington was on fire and within an hour, it spread all the way to my house. it wasn'tjust the london fire brigade that was stretched to the limit as fires broke out in many areas, including a huge blaze in yorkshire. it was a heatwave on a scale never seen before across western europe. here in spain, the most intense on record. multiple fires broke out here as well. passengers look out of this train to flames that can be seen on both sides.

summer heat reached new heights in asia, too. for the first time ever, japan hit a0 degrees in the month ofjune and tokyo had its highestjune temperature in records going back to 1865. in china, record june temperatures led to thousands trying to cool down in a giant open—air swimming pool in zhengzhou. by august, china was suffering its longest heatwave on record with drought across a huge central swathe of the country. and it was drought combined with heat that helped the uk fires, like this one in wennington, spread so quickly. the met office says southern england had its driest july in records that began in 1836. i've come to the fire station in wennington to speak to its commander, graham beers. graham, you've been in the fire service for almost 20 years. have you ever had a day quite like the 19th ofjuly? no, 19th ofjuly was just something out of the ordinary. i've been to many grass fires within my 19—year career

but the 19th ofjuly, it wasjust something, you know, that i've never experienced before in my career. so, here in wennington, talk me through what happened. i was in another severe incident near rainham but i was getting reports that a fire had broken out in wennington and it had actually started affecting the properties. i then attended, went in to see the devastation and one of the things that, actually, i was very shocked about is, as you can see from here, how close we was to losing the fire station. it's come within about two foot of the diesel tank, the station itself. so, we're actually standing next to 5,000 litres of diesel just here and you can see where the flames got really, really close, licking up the side of the diesel storage, so it could have been an awful lot worse. yeah, it's due to the hard work of the crews that attended the fire on that day. yeah, the crews must have been seriously stretched on that day because, of course, this wasn't an isolated incident, and you had other really major fires in the local area and right across london,

so just how did you cope as a fire service? so, that's right, it's actually been stated as the worst day for london fire brigade since world war two, our busiest time. if you look at the stats from last year, the first two weeks of august, we attended between a0 and 50 grass fires. to this year, where we attended, the first two weeks in august, we attended between 150 and 200 grass fires. so, it's a really big jump from one year to the next. and you've been working a lot with members of the public here in the community as well, trying to push the fire safety message since the fire injuly, so what sort of advice are you giving people? fire safety advice, notjust in the home but in their gardens as well. safe disposal of cigarettes, safe use of barbecues. just be sensible with it. have a purpose—built barbecue and have a bucket of water next to it, just in case that barbecue does start getting out of control. great advice. thank you so much, graham. we'll have more from here later in the programme, when we'll be discussing how heat and drought are fuelling ever—more intense wildfires across the globe.

showing the link between extreme weather and climate change used to take months, even years, but now, scientists here at imperial college london have developed new methods that can cut that time to just days. imperial college london is home to the grantham institute, which is the central hub of world weather attribution, a network of scientists around the world, whose aim is to deliver rapid analysis of extreme weather and how much more likely it is because of climate change. well, with me now is dr fredi 0tto, who leads the world weather attribution group. i want to ask first of all, the most important question is what did you learn about the link between that uk heatwave and climate change? i think the main results from that study were that this heatwave would have been four degrees cooler, if it would've happened at the beginning of the industrial revolution — or in other words, that a heatwave like this has been

made at least ten times more likely because of human—induced climate change. so, basically, we would not have seen a heatwave like this if it wasn't for climate change. how are you able to do an analysis and come up with the results so quickly? because i can remember the time when it would take months, even sometimes years, to find the link between climate change and extreme weather and yet this, your study, came out a week after the uk heatwave. so, how so quick? all our methods are peer—reviewed, so we are not actually doing something new scientifically, we just apply methods that have been tested many times to a new event. and the other thing — and that's probably even the more important one — is that we have a team of people around the world who think this is really important, who also feel it's really important that you have scientific evidence in the immediate aftermath of such an event to occur and so, drop everything else and do this study.

so, there's an urgency there, isn't it? urgency of people's connection between the two things? yes, i think we can — we can not only sort of show in a paper that climate change is happening, but we can connect that to our experience and our feelings. this is what climate change means. dr 0tto, thank you for now. we will come back to you later in the programme for some final thoughts. and also coming up, i'll be looking in even more detail about how that study of the uk heatwave and its link to climate change was done. world weather attribution scientists also studied this year's searing pre—monsoon heatwave in india and pakistan, which affected millions of people. their verdict — it was made 30 times more likely because of climate change. in pakistan in may, flooding from a rapidly—melting glacier caused this bridge to collapse.

panicked shouting. temperatures were from five to eight degrees above average across large swathes of the country. now to africa, where in the east, the worst drought in decades is placing millions of people at risk of severe hunger. the rains they rely on to grow crops and feed animals have failed four times in a row. from bbc weather�*s climate check studio, ben rich looks at why the wait for rain is likely to go on. this part of africa relies on two rainy seasons each year, driven by the intertropical convergence zone, or the itcz, a band of thunderstorms that encircles the planet near the equator. the strong heat of the sun causes air to rise, helped by converging trade winds from northern and southern hemispheres, generating a zone of intense downpours. as the sun shifts northwards and southwards, relative to the earth, so does the itcz. as it moves northwards, it brings the so—called long rains from march to may.

this year, those long rains failed. as it moves back southwards, there's a briefer wet season, known as the short rains, from october to december, and long—range forecasts suggest this could fail, too. 0ranges and browns on this map show predicted rainfall below normal. this would mean an unprecedented fifth consecutive failed rainy season. one reason is a long—lasting la nina in the pacific, which can bring weather impacts across the globe, including dryness in east africa. for people in eastern africa, in the regions where we have two rainfall season in a year, we need to have two consecutive rain seasons that have failed for people to start experiencing the severe impacts of this rain shortage and unfortunately for this specific case, this is the fifth consecutive season. what it means is that people actually have no longer

at all anything to rely upon, apart from humanitarian help, in that drought—affected region so, as a result, there will be a need for humanitarian organisations to increase the help. and this is also, i think, an opportunity to call for more resources to kind of shift more attention towards this region, which is becoming more and more vulnerable to the effects of climate change. some of your weather watcher pictures now, and more views of the uk's record—breaking july heatwave. as well as hitting a0 degrees for the first time, new national records were set in scotland and wales. northern ireland was just 0.1 degrees short of its all—time record, which was set injuly last year. and in the channel islands, with 37.9 degrees, jersey had its hottest day in records going back to 189a. still to come on weather world, here we go again —

will australia see yet more of this, as a third consecutive la nina looks increasingly likely? this time on weather world, i'm in wennington in east london, which, on the uk's hottest day injuly, suffered a devastating wildfire that damaged or destroyed many of the homes here. and it's notjust people here counting the cost. record heat and drought have fuelled wildfires across much of western europe. spain injuly, and angel martin arjona in his bulldozer is trying to dig a trench to stop fire spreading to his nearby town. he's slowly swallowed up by the flames. it's the narrowest escape imaginable. he survived, but with severe burns. conditions forfire are made worse by drought. and in august, two thirds of europe was under some sort of drought warning, with claims this could be the worst such event in 500 years.

fires burned in the usa too. global forest watch says the amount of tree cover being burned around the world has nearly doubled in the last 20 years. i'm joined now by dr matt jones, a climate scientist from the university of east anglia. and matt, your research focuses on climate change and how that impacts the rate and intensity of wildfires. so how much has our warming world had an impact on wildfires? so, just to put things into perspective, our world is now about 1.2 degrees warmer than it was in 1750. on average, and that's as a result of the emissions of greenhouse gases since the industrial revolution. so, one degree might not sound like a huge amount at first glance, but actually that's been more than enough to shift the frequency of many episodes of extreme weather, and that includes both droughts and heatwaves.

these conditions have really special significance for wildfires, of course, because it's in these conditions that living vegetation can dry out. so can the dead leaves and twigs and other litter on the forest floor. and all you really need in this situation is for an ignition source, such as from humans, or from lightning, to start a fire, and a fire can quickly grow out of control. fire has always been a part of life in these parts of the world, but with the increasing frequency of really significant wildfires, what's the knock—on implications and consequences for the environment? essentially, what happens when you have an increase in the amount of area burned by fires is that you place a greater proportion of a forest landscape into a degraded state that stores less carbon. and so what we're seeing as wildfire burns a greater area of forest each year is a suppression of the amount of carbon that forests hold. and what that means is that there's more carbon being emitted into the atmosphere. so, the catch—all measure for identifying the risk of wildfires is something called the fire weather index. now what is that and why is it

such an important measure? a high fire weather index will indicate to you that there's, that the temperature's high, there's not been much rainfall recently, that humidity is quite low and also that there may be some dangerous winds. and all of these things kind of conspire to elevate the risk of a wildfire growing and also becoming difficult to control. so, exactly like we saw here in wennington and right across many parts of the uk back injuly, then, there must have been a very high fire weather index? absolutely. yeah. so, on the day of the fires, there was a record fire weather index in the uk. and actually, this level of fire weather is something that would, it would trigger an outright ban in some countries of the world, for example, in australia, on the use of fire outdoors. and it's something we're going to have to learn to deal with here in the uk and take examples from abroad,

as to how you deal with the conditions that we're going to face more frequently. 0k, thank you so much, matt. thank you very much. we've already heard how record july temperatures in the uk would have been virtually impossible without climate change. now i'm going to meet one of the scientists from world weather attribution to find out more about their research. dr mariam zachariah, you worked on the study linking the uk heat wave to climate change. i'm really interested to know how you did that. we're going to be helped by this plot here, which refers to the st james's park weather station in central london. and basically on this, up here, you've got the temperature and then along the bottom you've got years. so it's basically the chance of something happening every certain number of years from, well, down here, it would be happening every year to something here, happening every, say, 10,000 years. now, we've got some lines on here that we're interested in looking at. so tell me more about what this shows and essentially the result of your study. the stars that you see on the plots are the maximum temperatures observed every year at the station, at this particular

weather station. so, the red line here represents the distribution for the world we live in, which is the current climate. and then what we did is we essentially shifted this distribution to represent a world without climate change, and that would be about 1.2 degrees celsius cooler. and that is what is shown by this blue line. now, the magenta line was the temperature that we saw this year at the weather station, and that was about 38.8 degrees celsius. what we should be looking at is the point where the magenta line intersects with either of these lines. for the red line, which is the current world, we see that this point intersects somewhere there and that comes to about 600 years. now, what that means is the chances of the temperatures that we saw this year happening in the observations was about once in 600 years. but what is interesting here is that the blue line, essentially this blue line, it never coincides with the magenta line.

now, what that means is such an event would have been statistically impossible in a world without climate change. it's fascinating to see that, as you said, in the pre—industrial world, which is the blue line, it doesn't even get anywhere near that temperature! and in fact, the highest that i can see here is about 32.5 degrees. follow that down. that's basically saying in the pre—industrial world, this weather station would hit 32.5 degrees once every 10,000 years. and now that weather station probably hits it every two or three years, or something like that. that is astonishing, isn't it? that's correct. and that's what we can expect, in terms of climate change, and that's how the temperatures are behaving to climate change. but it's sort of not limited to temperatures alone. but we sort of see this these kind of changes for every other extreme event. so to what extent and to what degree, that is what we try to answer through attribution studies. it's notjust heatwaves that these scientists study. brazil in may and devastating floods and landslides

in the north—east, where 70% of the month's average rainfall fell in less than 2a hours. rain that world weather attribution says would have been less intense in the pre—industrial climate. floods have wreaked havoc far and wide in the usa. injune, its oldest national park, yellowstone, saw widespread damage from historic rainfall, mixed with rapid snow melt. after the heat, intense monsoon rain causes flooding across parts of india, pakistan and bangladesh, killing hundreds of people. in china injune, rescuers struggle to reach communities cut off by the highest rainfall since the 19605. hundreds of thousands of people have to leave their homes. and in south korea in august, the heaviest rain in 80 years hit areas around the capital, seoul, flooding the metro below ground and swamping the streets above. flood rescues in australia, as the ongoing global la nina weather pattern brings yet more extreme rain. sydney had its wettestjuly

in over 160 years of records and there could be more to come, with a rare third la nina year now looking likely, and there could be further worrying signs for the future. scientists from the university of new south wales say atlantic ocean circulations, which in part take warmer waters from the tropics northwards, are showing signs of weakening, due to climate change. and this could mean more frequent la nina conditions and therefore flooding in eastern australia. what we see is that the heat is not transported any more i i from the tropics to the tropics| and then it causes the northern hemisphere to cool and i the southern hemisphere to keep the heat. so there is a contrast i between the temperatures in the northern hemisphere i and the southern hemisphere. and this difference _ in temperature causes a massive

disruption in the atmospheric dynamics and changes - the atmospheric circulation i in a way that puts the tropical pacific into a la nina state. so it's quite interesting, because what happens i in the atlantic, it can impact| the tropical pacific and it can have implications for the whole globe, including australia. i back here at imperial college london, i am with dr fredi 0tto again, she leads the world weather attribution group here, to get some final thoughts from you. what stands out for you from what we have seen, extreme weather wise, in the summer of the northern hemisphere this year? so what stood out for me this year were the wildfires. we have seen many, many heatwaves simultaneously

in past years, 2018 for example, also 2019. but this year that has been combined with a drought, and in many cases, that led to wildfires on a scale that i have not really seen in europe. i know as a weather presenter, meteorologist, that covering these stories, i get comments sent to me, people saying, "it is just summer, it gets hot in summer, you are taking the fun out of summer". do you get comments like that, did they get you down? yes i do get comments like that, and people sent me lists of past heatwaves as if that would prove that climate change doesn't exist — because no—one says that we never had heatwaves without climate change. in the uk it is always, "oh, but it was hot in 1976," which is true, of course there are heatwaves without climate change. but with climate change we see many more heatwaves, and they are hotter than they would be. and if you are lucky and healthy and rich and have a well—insulated house, that might still be fun. but if you are not rich and live in good housing,

and if you maybe have already health conditions to deal with, then this can, this "we take the fun out" is actually a question of life and death. i've come to wennington parish church of st mary and st peter, now, right in the centre of the village. and the vicar here is reverend elise peterson. now, she's currently over in the united states, but she's agreed to talk to us via video link. so, reverend elise, thanks so much for talking to us today. now, i'm standing here in the churchyard. the ground is really, really scorched. the bushes are burnt as well, but actually, the church itself looks relatively unscathed. yeah, we can see that the fire burned all around the churchyard, but actually did not touch the church walls. we've got some smoke damage and things inside, but it's really quite miraculous. and even the villagers themselves have described it as a halo around the church. if you look at an aerial view, there's a strip of grass almost the entire way around where the fire did not get to the church walls itself. and since that wildfire

you have been very much involved in rebuilding the community here and supporting the community, how have the residents been rallying around? the first sunday after the fire i hadn't intended on having a service because the building was still close, but the villagers said if we can come in and be together and encourage one another, so we opened up the church, had tea and coffee and cake and just let them connect with one another. and you're from the west coast of the united states, so you must be quite used to seeing wildfires like this on a bigger scale out there. but how shocking was it for you to see something like this happen here in this small village in east london? yeah, it was like nothing i would have ever expected. i did, i spent a lot of my growing—up years in california, where wildfires were just part of the summer, just something you expected, although definitely we've seen them become more intense in recent years, even in california. but, yeah, would have never expected something like this to happen in east london.

thank you so much for taking time out to talk to us, reverend elise. you're very welcome. and that's it for this edition of weather world, at the end of an extraordinary northern hemisphere summer. we wish everyone here in wennington the very best, as they rebuild their lives. and you, too, if you've suffered through heat, drought, fire or floods. nick and i will be back later in the year with a full round—up of 2022 weather extremes. until then, goodbye.

has said whoever succeeds him will announce another huge package of financial support to help people cope with soaring energy bills this winter. writing in the mail on sunday, boris johnson acknowledged that the next few months would be difficult, as households face sky—high costs. 0pposition parties and charities say more help is needed now. the price cap set by the regulator 0fgem will rise by 80% in october. that means the typical annual energy bill, paid by direct debt, will increase from 1,971 pounds to more than 3,500 pounds. pre—payment meter customers will pay an average of 3,608 pounds — 59 pounds a year more than those on direct debit. let's speak to our political correspondent ione wells. ione more, promises of help, but still no detail about what is going to be done to help people and when. there is still no detail around

that, is that?— there is still no detail around that, is that? ., , ~ that, is that? that is right. all we have is the _ that, is that? that is right. all we have is the prime _ that, is that? that is right. all we have is the prime minister - that, is that? that is right. all we have is the prime minister being l that, is that? that is right. all we | have is the prime minister being a big package of support is on its way but no clarity about what they will be a clarity i think will depend on exactly who wins this leadership race. liz truss who is the front runner in this race has been quite clear that she won't give any clarity about what exact support might be available until if and when she is in office but certainly we have an idea of what she is considering. firstly, she has hinted at more direct support for some of the most vulnerable households, but overall, she has stressed that her main approach is to cut people's taxes as opposed to offering people a more direct support. so, she has already pledged to cut national insurance. there are some reports today that she is considering other things like for example cutting vat, the tax on things that we buy, but also potentially raising the amount that people have to earn before they start paying income tax. these are

all things under consideration, i should stress. nothing confirmed yet. rishi sunak has been slightly more clear that he would provide a direct support for everybody, but particular extra support for some of the most vulnerable households so people on welfare, pensioners, people on welfare, pensioners, people are disability benefits for example, but i think as you say, no clarity yet on what support might be available. they have their final costings in london this week, the tory members, meanwhile there is some nervousness among tory mp5 but also members of the public about this delay to any clarity about what support there might be this winter with bills. ., ~ , ., ., with bills. thank you, and we will s-eak to you later this morning. at 8:30 this morning, we'll be talking to a panel of experts about rising energy costs. email your questions to bbcbreakfast@bbc.co.uk we will put as many questions as possible to our panel at 830 this morning. it

suspicion of murder and attempted murder had been released on bail. 0ne murder had been released on bail. one has been recalled to prison for breaching the terms of his license. this is a community then which is desperate for answers. merseyside police said they still need people to come forward so that they can bring those responsible to justice, but for this community now, as i say, desperate for answers because we are now five days on from the day that the city, liverpool, woke up to that the city, liverpool, woke up to that devastating news that a nine—year—old girl had been shot deadin nine—year—old girl had been shot dead in her own home by a man who was chasing a gun man, completely unknown to 0livia was chasing a gun man, completely unknown to olivia and her family. bill, thank you very much. phil mccann there. we arejoined by we are joined by reverend peter. this was shocking in the community must be reeling. what sort of reaction have you heard from people? you are right. the shop was quite

apparent. the day after it happened, i opened the church and people came in. they were aware that something devastating had happened in our community. i went across the road to the shops opposite the church and just spoke to people, and yeah. they are shocked and they were devastated and they really were speechless and did not know what to say. one lady said to me "i am at wits to describe what happened." yeah, it is a terrible time for this community. and how is your sermon today going to be reflecting on this, and how is your service going to be remembering 0livia? your service going to be remembering olivia? fill" your service going to be remembering olivia? , . , ., olivia? our services morning - we call it massed! _ olivia? our services morning - we call it massed! will _ olivia? our services morning - we call it massed! will be _ olivia? our services morning - we call it massed! will be dedicated l olivia? our services morning - we | call it massed! will be dedicated to the memory of olivia, and also to support herfamily as the memory of olivia, and also to support her family as well. i will be talking about what has happened and to be terrible, terrible situation that we have around the country with gun crime and life crime and just really how awful

you will know him as a familiar character on breakfast. his birth parents, anthony smith and jody simpson, were jailed for 10 years in 2018. smith was due for release next month, halfway through his sentence, but his case will now be reviewed by the parole board. dutch police say at least three people have been killed and several more injured after a truck crashed into a street party near rotterdam. it's understood the lorry veered off the road and rolled into a neighbourhood barbecue just south of the city. the driver has been arrested. the cause of the crash is not yet known. also in 1000 people have been killed and millions have been forced from their homes as floods devastated pakistan in one of the worst monsoon disasters to hit the country. the prime minister says that the magnitude of the calamity is greater than expected with around 15% of the country's population hit by the floods. 0fficials

costumes for carnival. eight weeks of making costumes toward carnival. we make the templates, we make prototypes. we then mass—produce the different costumes, the headpiece, the colours, the armbands and we always make big, backpack structures, so we have metalwork. the notting hill carnival has taken place in london since the 19605 on each august bank holiday over two days. it is an important celebration of culture, diversity and inclusivity. this year's theme is a time to remember — a tribute to the carnival�*s history and heritage. this year, for the first time, we will also be broadcasting live on our youtube channel, so those that are unable to make it can come watch from the comfort of their own home, but what those that do come to carnival can expect to see, the usual bright and colourful costumes, bands, we have many sound systems as well as the stages were people will be able

to see artist performances. not to mention the food that will be available. the event will be visited by more than 2 million people over two days. officers from london's metropolitan police will be on duty in their thousands. it will be one of the biggest events they have policed in the last few years. as is tradition, carnival will start before sunrise today followed by the children's parade which begins at 10:30 this morning. as in previous years, at 72—second silence will be observed to remember those who died in the grenfell tower tragedy five years ago. the remains of the building are close by and visible on the carnival route. greg mckenzie, bbc news. so good to have at the carnival. returning to our top story: borisjohnson has said the next

prime minister will announce a huge package of support to help households with soaring energy bills, but opposition parties say help is needed now. let's speak to carla denyer, the co—leader of the green party, who joins us from bristol. good morning to you. thanks for taking who joins us from bristol. good morning to you. thanks for taking the who joins us from bristol. good morning to you. thanks for taking the time who joins us from bristol. good morning to you. thanks for taking the time to who joins us from bristol. good morning to you. thanks for taking the time to talk who joins us from bristol. good morning to you. thanks for taking the time to talk to who joins us from bristol. good morning to you. thanks for taking the time to talk to us who joins us from bristol. good morning to you. thanks for taking the time to talk to us bright and early on a sunday morning. so, what with the green party do to try and help people at this time? well; and help people at this time? well, as ou and help people at this time? well, as you said. — and help people at this time? well, as you said. we _ and help people at this time? well, as you said, we all— and help people at this time? well, as you said, we all know _ and help people at this time? well, as you said, we all know the - as you said, we all know the terrifying situation we are heading into this winter. it is looking like half of uk households could be facing fuel property by january, half of uk households could be facing fuel property byjanuary, and yet, as your correspondent told us a few minutes ago, the government's proposals are weak and really the leadership candidates proposals are really still very vague. they are not taking the action that is needed to reassure households that they are going to be ok through this winter. and i am afraid to say i don't think the other parties, the opposition parties proposals, really viable either because they are proposing to

peg the energy at its current level. the current level is already unaffordable for so many, so what the greens are proposing is to roll back the energy price to the level it was last october, a much more affordable level and to bring the big five energy retail companies into public ownership because only the government cannot make an intervention at the scale and speed necessary to ensure that we come out of this crisis, not only with people having survived the winter but then with the whole country being more resilient and greener by insulating homes and transitioning towards renewables which lets not forget is the cheapest form of electricity. so your own party figures suggest it will cost £37 billion. where would you find the money to pay for that? that's right and to give context on that figure, the same as what the government spent on the test and

trace scheme 10% what the government spent on helping the public during the covid pandemic. yes it might sound like a large but in the context of helping the population during a crisis, justified. we would pay for it with with a much stronger tax on the massive profits that oil and gas companies are making at the moment so before sunak brought in his week windfall tax we were calling for a dirty profits tax on one of the differences is we wouldn't have a massive loophole in every pound which sunak introduces which rewards oil and gas companies for extracting more oil and gas, removing that loophole and making it a stronger tax because those extraction companies are making massive profits at this stage while people are struggling. we will also not be

afraid to increase taxes on the really super rich because those people are not the ones who need the support during this crisis. it liz support during this crisis. if liz truss is successful _ support during this crisis. if liz truss is successful in - support during this crisis. if liz truss is successful in becoming prime minister, she says she might open the door to fracking. what is your view? we need more gas. we need a more secure supply, it is under ourfeet in some a more secure supply, it is under our feet in some parts of this country. our feet in some parts of this count . ,., ., ., our feet in some parts of this count . ., ., ., ., country. good idea? not a good idea at all. country. good idea? not a good idea at all- putting _ country. good idea? not a good idea at all. putting more _ country. good idea? not a good idea at all. putting more gas _ country. good idea? not a good idea at all. putting more gas into - country. good idea? not a good idea at all. putting more gas into the i at all. putting more gas into the system will make matters worse. it's gas which is pushing up energy prices at the moment. if the government had invested faster in renewables in this country, we would not be in this situation. we are calling for a faster rollout of renewables, wind and solar are the cheapest ways of generating electricity in this country and so that would stabilise the market and we want to see a big nationwide

rollout of energy efficiency measures, especially home insulation because the cheapest bill is the one that you don't have to pay because your home is well insulated, it is warm in winter and cool in summer. in france, there are been many people talking about them is not suffering in the same way we are from the huge hikes in energy prices, they are going up but not as much and it is because they have more nuclear in france. it is more nuclear a good idea here? i more nuclear in france. it is more nuclear a good idea here?- nuclear a good idea here? i think it's arguably _ nuclear a good idea here? i think it's arguably because _ nuclear a good idea here? i think it's arguably because france i nuclear a good idea here? i think it's arguably because france has| nuclear a good idea here? i think| it's arguably because france has a state—owned energy company which means they can have more control over the price as their customers see and i think that is a good example of why part of our proposal is to bring the big five energy retail companies into public ownership so the government can have more control over the prices and the service that customers receive and also gives government power to help

rollout that home insulation scheme, which government owned energy companies could be a valuable part of the process. companies could be a valuable part of the process-— companies could be a valuable part of the process. home insulation has been talked — of the process. home insulation has been talked about _ of the process. home insulation has been talked about a _ of the process. home insulation has been talked about a lot, _ of the process. home insulation has been talked about a lot, various i been talked about a lot, various initiatives over the years but it costs about £1200 to do the average house with cavity wall insulation and it takes ten years to recoup those savings of your bill. good in the longer term, but it's not the short—term fix that many need, is it? what would be the case for you if these prices are still this high say in 12 months? do you repeat the £37 billion giveaway again? you say in 12 months? do you repeat the £37 billion giveaway again?- £37 billion giveaway again? you are ritht. £37 billion giveaway again? you are right- because _ £37 billion giveaway again? you are right. because of— £37 billion giveaway again? you are right. because of bad _ £37 billion giveaway again? you are right. because of bad government | right. because of bad government decisions over the last ten years, the government is currently nowhere near being able to achieve the levels of home insulation in this country that is needed and that was a conscious policy choice by the conservative government. the uk was doing quite well on home insulation

until 2013 when they pulled the rug out by slashing funding so that home insulation, it can't be done overnight, orthis insulation, it can't be done overnight, or this winter, insulation, it can't be done overnight, orthis winter, but insulation, it can't be done overnight, or this winter, but more reason why the uk needs to throw everything at improving our country's homes, starting now. that is the medium term proposal. short—term, we need to help people get through this winter because many people are understandably anxious looking at the news that came out this week about how they will pay their bills which are going up 80% in one fell swoop. we will lower the energy price and that will help people get through this winter. what will we do after that? no—one can realistically predict what will happen with the energy market over the next six months so i think what we do in six months is something to think about soon but it is a bridge to cross later when the picture is more clear. many things are out of

just incredible, a lot of goals in the premier league and the matches coming _ the premier league and the matches coming up _ the premier league and the matches coming up on bbc one. away from the football. england's cricketers have levelled the test series against south africa at i—all. the captain ben stokes was player of the match and described their victory by an innings and 85 runs as "amazing". they now head to the oval for the deciding test a week on thursday. our sports correspondentjoe wilson was at old trafford. just three days at old trafford but for england, they were almost perfect. james anderson defeated south africa's captain like that and the course seemed set but rassie van der dussen batted defiantly with an injured finger and between lunch and tea, no wickets fell. now this was a challenge. when england were overwhelmed in the first test match of the series, ben stokes said, "don't worry, we willjust win the next two matches."

but to make this victory happen, stokes needed stokes. he got rid of van der dussen in a momentum—changing spell of bowling. watch the next delivery. that was keegan petersen finally gone after hours of resistance. then the game was open. the stumps were waiting forjames anderson again. it finished in a rush, three wickets in the south african second innings for anderson and four for the recalled ollie robinson. england's bowlers emphatically completed the win set up by friday's batting when ben stokes had made 100. it's a real sort of confidence boost and i think in the way in that we applied us in bat, ball and in the field, it was an incredible team performance and it sets the series up really nicely to play the last game on the oval. yeah, third test next month. a team of players but they are hard to stop when they are led in everything by their captain. joe wilson, bbc news, old trafford.

rangers looked inspired by their progress to the champions league group stage as they beat ross county 4—0 to go top of the scottish premiership. antonio colak who scored the crucial goal in their qualifying win over psv eindhoven was on the scoresheet again with a strike in each half at ibrox. it puts rangers a point above celtic having played a game more. the champions will return to the top of the table if they win at dundee united this lunch time. elsewhere there were wins for aberdeen, kilmarnock and st mirren. formula one is back from its summer break with carlos sainz on pole, but the action at the back of the grid could be more exciting at this afternoon's belgian grand prix. championship leader max verstappen was more than half a second quicker than the spaniard in qualifying at spa. but he and title rival charles leclerc have been demoted for using too many engine parts. they'll start from fifteenth and sixteenth. lewis hamilton is fourth on the grid, just ahead of mercedes

team mate george russell. rafa nadal says he's sad that novak djokovic won't be competing at the us open. djokovic is unvaccinated so isn't allowed into the united states for the tournament which starts tomorrow, so another missd opportunity for djokoic to equal nadal�*s 22 grand slams. this is very sad news. it is always a shame when it the best players are not able to play a tournament because of injuries or because of different reasons and in this case not having one of the best players of history in the draw of a grand slam is always an important mess. that is it from us.

but this is where we say goodbye to viewers on bbc one. bye for now. thank you for following us to the bbc news channel. good to have you. now it's time for the latest technology news with click. this week, we will catch up with an olympic superstar hoping to help women exercise smarter. i'm trying to run for a gold medal here, but i'm also very aware that i've just started my period. chris is braving the cold. still, he has some furry friends to keep him warm. but what is he doing with his phone? who knows. show me your nose? and all aboard the new elizabeth line as paul's schoolboy dreams come true. this station is paddington,

where this train terminates. all change, please, all change. i have always wanted to do that. on your marks, get set, go! can you believe that it's exactly ten years since this site was just getting ready to host the 2012 olympic games? it feels like it was yesterday that this olympic stadium was alive with the roars of the crowd cheering on the athletes. time flies. and when you plan a site like this — indeed, when you spend all that money, it's important to plan a legacy, how the place can be put to good use once the games are finished. and the park still thriving with football, swimming, cycling and, generally, just being a nice place to come. and in a weird way, the same is true for olympic athletes, who only usually get to compete at that

level for the first part of their careers. takejessica ennis—hill, who gave us so many great moments, even winning gold in the 2012 heptathlon. yeah, and infact, she ran the entire distance that we have just walked in 12.5 seconds, while jumping over stuff! and her career still took more twists and turns after that, with injuries, a remarkable return after her pregnancy to win at the world championships, and then taking silver in brazil. and since retiring from competitive sport she, like the whole park, is looking to the next thing. now, it's still connected to sport, as you would expect, and it is also connected to women's health, specifically menstruation. periods aren't something that's always openly talked about, and discussed even less in relation to exercise, butjessica's new app helps women to work out better around their cycle, so shona mccallum has been to meet her to find out more.

training hard in the gym, building strength, and getting a sweat on — but what if you are on your period? one occasion, i was at thejunior european championships and i remember just running that 800 metres thinking, "i'm trying to run for a gold medal here, "but i'm also very aware that i've just "started my period". ijust rushed off the track and felt like i couldn't have — i just didn't absorb that amazing, like, gold medal moment. jess ennis—hill was at the top of her sport. olympic and world champion in the heptathlon, she had physios, dietitians, and coaches looking at all aspects of her training programme, but nobody looked at when she was menstruating. i always remember it being an awkward conversation, so i had a male coach and it was predominantly a male environment, and i remember, yeah, just having those small conversations of, you know, "i'm on my period" or "i'm a bit tired" or "i'm not feeling 100%" but never feeling fully

confident about having that more open conversation about how i felt and how it was making me feel when i trained. but it's notjust athletes that this affects. women make choices about training around their periods all the time. sometimes, you want to rest and other times, you want to run. that's because we have different hormone levels at different times of the month. our menstruation cycle is split into four different phases. they are period, follicular, luteal, and premenstrual. each phase is determined by the two main hormones, oestrogen and progesterone, which are at differing levels, depending on where in the cycle you are. using this information as a guide, jess decided the best way to get her message across to women who wanted

to keep fit was an app. after a couple of months of inputting your period data, the algorithm begins to recognise what phase of the menstrual cycle you are in and gives you tailored fitness options from things like yoga to high—intensity workouts. so, you do roughly a minute of that and then we could go into some core, so can position yourselves on the mat. so does your period affect your ability to exercise? well, the team atjennis thinks so, and it is something their users are keen to know more about. as a 45—year—old woman, i knew very little about the way my body works and i decided to learn about that. it seems to still be a taboo to talk about periods and menopause and things like that and i think that's changing, and i want to be part of that. perhaps we don't know as much about our bodies as we should. but the area is still extremely underresearched and the academic studies which have

been done may not be reliable. 42% of the research was actually low quality, so what we do have, the majority of it was kind of low quality in terms of they weren't really looking at the mentrual cycle hormones in terms of blood sampling and the gold standard methods, so not only do we have a research gap we have this quality issue as well. so, moving forward, not only do we need to increase the quantity of research we're getting, but we also need to make it better, so we can get to those sort of more accurate conclusions on female physiology. there are a lot of more popular apps available, including fitrwoman, flo and clue, so women now have more tech at their disposal than jess ever had. do you think you would have been a better athlete had you trained in accordance with your period? it's a really good question. i think i would have been able to train smarter. i think when you get to a certain level, everything, every small incremental change is hugely important.

i think that maybe if i would have spent more time understanding particularly when to push myself in the strength room, for example, when i'm in that follicular phase, then i would have perhaps built more lean muscle and become stronger and, who knows, it may have affected my performance in a positive way. it is hard to imagine her being even faster. it hasn't mainly been done on men. even the wearables that work with this fitness app come with buyers in a build. it

with this fitness app come with buyers in a build.— with this fitness app come with buyers in a build. it will, ifi am havin: buyers in a build. it will, ifi am having hot— buyers in a build. it will, ifi am having hot flush. _ buyers in a build. it will, ifi am having hot flush. was _ buyers in a build. it will, ifi am having hot flush. was 12 - buyers in a build. it will, ifi am having hot flush. was 12 million monthly active _ having hot flush. was 12 million monthly active users _ having hot flush. was 12 million monthly active users the - having hot flush. was 12 million i monthly active users the tracking app holds one of the biggest datasets of its kind. what kind of insight are you gleaning for the first time? one particularly fascinating study we're doing with researchers at mit. we are using clue data and pairing that with air pollution data, taken in occurrences like the california wildfires. this can help us draw conclusions like the impact of pollution on fertility, for example. wow, that is fascinating, i would never have expected that to be a factor. natural cycles pairs with a thermometer and its 2 million users are also shaping health beyond menstruation. you are actually in temperature data able to see covid hotspots when it broke out in early 2020, because we saw an increased number of temperatures being excluded by the algorithm. the future of healthcare is really to get early insights and have preventative measures, rather than get sick and get treatment.

so the potential of data is huge — but with so much information it may feel overwhelming, especially with so many free, paid for, and subscription services on offer. there is also the challenge of making sure data is not misused. it's good to be aware that no product is ever truly free, so the company has to monetise either by running ads or selling your data to a third party. and today, as abortion legislation comes under scrutiny in the us, there are new concerns about protecting app users from the long arm of the law. at times now with roe v wade, it is terrifying, and we want to be able to support women and their choices. i don't think we can assume thatjust because we are a european company that gdpr will protect us. yet as some prepare for potential hurdles ahead, new options like this saliva based fertility kit continue to bring new data to light.

we collect the saliva, ifold it over, and then i put it in my little inne reader. amelia chose inne after having her contraceptive device removed. it is very easy for me. at the beginning, a had a few times where it didn't, yeah, my saliva was not taken appropriately, but now it suits for my day very well. the kit costs around £300 for a year, and some might not like trashing used swabs each day. but if one solution isn't perfect, users can always pick and choose. combining the fertility and cycle tracking app clue makes me feel more secure because i have the best of both worlds, many symptoms i can track in clue and the progesterone levels, is not fully developed, so i willjust wait and, yeah, be part of the process.

time for a look at this week's tech news. the facial recognition company clearview ai has been fined more than £7.5 million by the uk's privacy watchdog. it has found the firm had been collecting pictures of people's faces without consent. the company says its technology has been "misinterpreted". in what's thought to be a world first, police in the netherlands have used deepfake technology to try and solve the killing of a teenager nearly 20 years ago. officers released constructed footage of the victim, calling on people to speak up about what they know. translation: in order to reach the right people in this case, - the witnesses who have information about the circumstances, it is necessary to touch people's hearts. with the deepfake technology we were able to let sedar make his own appeal. this no car charger? no problem. this pop—up solar car park has

been unveiled this week, built out of recycled shipping containers, it is designed to be operational wherever it is needed within 2a hours, and can hold enough charge for 12 cars. and to celebrate 15 years of google street view, you can now turn your phone into a time machine. the latest version of the ios and android app will let you flick through old street view footage of the same location. i hope i mowed the lawn 15 years ago. you may have seen casey neistat touring first class cabins in the clouds, hanging from helicopters in hollywood, or snowboarding the streets of new york city. he has had his own tv series, acted in movies, founded and invested in tech companies, and is now turning his talents to feature—length documentaries. i sat down with the viral star, virtually, of course. hello, how are you doing, casey? i'm just happy that we all

have our glasses on. the movie at large is a sort of a broader commentary on the pros and cons of what happens when there is no distance between sort of the creator and the audience. under the influence follows the meteoric rise and fall of fellow youtuber david dobrik. what happens with unchecked influence? what happens when there are no speed bumps, no filters between this young twentysomething man who has this tremendous audience of tens of millions of subscribers, and billions, with a b, billions of views, with a degree of influence that was, i don't know it has been seen before. the things that led to his success were very much the same things that led to his undoing. in the film, david's skyrocket to fame stalls when a member of his so—called "vlog squad", durte dom,

is accused of sexual assault. in light of a news article, his sponsors drop him and youtube demonetises his uploads. just weeks later, though, he is back. the fact that in the shadow of all those revelations, that accountability did not yield the sort of consequence that certainly the journalists and the survivor herself had anticipated, to me that is such a sort of a bleak outcome. it is, you know, what does it say about our society that there is such little accountability for wrongdoing in the world of influence and social media? i want to apologise

to herand herfriends... david has says he believes the allegations and has offered an apology. durte dom has also apologised, but says it was consensual. as well as the film world, casey is also in the tech industry, founding video app app beme back in 2014, which he sold to cnn for an estimated $25 million. we are officially live in the app store. we have seen such tremendous outcomes because of the opportunities created with technology. but there's a downside to that. there are real negative outcomes, there are real dangerous outcomes, and that theme exactly is what my movie explores. good god, david! that was nick, talking to casey neistat. now, earlier we talked about the importance of olympic sites having a legacy and being useful and accessible to the wider community. one of the ways that is happening here in london is that, that purple circle up there means that this place is one of the new stops on a new train line that crosses london.

originally called crossrail, work started in 2009, but has since been renamed the elizabeth line, opening just in time for the queen's platinumjubilee. but before the public got on board, paul carter went for a sneak preview. please, mind the doors! this is the elizabeth line. london and the south—east of england's first new railway in a generation. it is also the uk's first newly built fully digital railway. and as click�*s resident train enthusiast, i was lucky enough to be one of the first people to ride the newest stretch of track. it has finally opened to the public, operating as three separate sections. when it begins fully operating as a single line next year it will be a 73—mile railway, carrying an estimated 500,000 passengers a day.

in the core section of the line, running underneath central london, the £1 billion fleet of trains are almost entirely automated. this is a dream come true. setting off from stations at the push of a button. once you are ready, check monitors again, press start, and the train will take off. that's it. laughs. that's so surreal! in the central section, trains and signals communicate with each other automatically, meaning trains can run faster and much closer together than if driven manually, allowing an increased service frequency. we are running 12 trains an hour, and the reason we can drive the trains a lot faster is because the computer controlling it is maintaining the distance between the trains ahead. so there is always a safe gap between them all, which can't be maintained on the normal network because of where the signalling system is set up. now, it has been a bumpy ride to get to this point. when construction began way back in 2009, it was europe's biggest infrastructure project. but it was beset by problems,

and has opened 3.5 years late and £4 billion over budget. many of the delays to the project were put down to the complexity of integrating three separate signalling systems. to the east and to the west of london, drivers operate the trains manually, where more traditional signalling is in operation. the central core however uses a system of signalling called moving block. historically what you would have is fixed block, so you have a colour light signal that tells the train that the next block is clear ahead, whereas with us, the train is making its physical own block as it goes along the track, meaning you can run as many trains as you want to. i went along to the control room for the elizabeth line in east london to see how it looks from the other side. this is where the magic happens. this is where all the magic happens. as is often the case, technology also requires a human helping hand. you are currently shown as not cabbed, you don't have a route set ahead of your train. is there an issue

with your unit? indistinct speech. i will do that now, if you can just attempt to get your train on, if it is successful i will call you back and give you a route out. we have just seen there two instances of the benefit of having someone who is skilled and able to deal with problems here as well as having this kind of technology. yeah, 100, yeah. this is really the first step to going to digital railways, to be honest. in the future it's going to be called ertms. ertms is still under development and once that occurs, there's nothing to stop other railways going fully digital, main lines at a lot higher line speeds. from a technological perspective, the elizabeth line offers a glimpse into what the future of train travel will look like. but call me a romantic, i am not ready to see the human element completely disappear from our railways. this station is paddington, where the train terminates. all change please, all change. always wanted to do that. oh, you would have loved that. oh, i so would have, and i'm sojealous of paul! paul loves trains but not as much as he loves dogs.

only this week someone else has got to do the dog story for the programme. now, spencer, what can you tell me about dogs' noses? um, they are wet. that's true, but they are also unique. so you know how in some parts of the world dogs are microchipped in case someone loses a dog? well here is another idea — chris fox has been to norway to find out about it. we've always had a nose for a good pet tech story, so when i found a company developing phone—based face id for dogs, i knewjust where to come to test it out. somewhere with lots of dogs. until now, the usual way we identify dogs was with microchipping, and in some countries it is even the law. but a company from south korea

has developed an app which can identify dogs a little less invasively. all right then, yup! laughs. on this phone i have got petnow, which is using the dog's nose print to identify the dog, just like you can use a fingerprint to identify a human, a dog's nose print is very similar. so let's get to know this dog. come here! it turns out it is actually quite hard to get huskies to sit still for any length of time, especially show me your nose! it takes the phone a few seconds to take pictures of the dog's nose and analyse them in the cloud. it also saves the pictures it takes to the phone's camera roll so you can

enjoy them later. in the end, with a bit of help from professional husky musher nicholas, i was able to get a successful scan. ah, yes, it's found it. 0k, and the app is now telling me this is emma, and not only that, it is showing me that emma has been reported missing, and says where she was reported as missing, and i can share my location with the owner so they can be reunited. obviously emma is not really a lost dog — the huskies have been logged in the app so we can see if we can tell them apart. unlike a microchip which can be cut out of a stolen dog, you can't really remove a dog's nose, not without spoiling the dog. and by using the phone's camera to scan, anyone in theory can check a stray dog without any specialist equipment. backed at base i spoke to petnow to find out why they'd settled on nose prints for dog recognition. there may be paws or ears or iris, but some dogs really hate showing their paws or their ears. but the nose is exposed all the time, and after the dog

becomes 6 months old, the nose print stays their entire life, so we believe it is the best part for identification. what inspired you to make a nose print recognition app? in south korea, the number of dogs and cats which are lost or abandoned is also increasing. the vet bills are not standardised in south korea, and some owners are simply not willing to pay the high bills when their dogs or cats become really sick. some of them just choose to abandon them on the street. so we wish to build up a world without lost or abandoned animals. some kennel clubs already used dog nose prints as a form of id, but petnow hopes its app will become mandatory in south korea to help reduce the number of dogs that are abandoned by pet owners when a big vet's bill arrives.

to do that they will need the backing of government, and a huge marketing push so that everybody, including people who don't own a dog, knows about the app and how to use it. that was chris, always good at sniffing out a story. i did ask her not to do that. um, let's go, shall we? thank you very much for watching, we will see you soon. bye— bye.

good morning, welcome to breakfast with rogerjohnson and luxmy gopal. our headlines today: borisjohnson promises more help for "eye—watering" energy bills — but says the detail won't be announced until next month by the new prime minister. churches across liverpool remember nine—year—old 0liva pratt—korbel almost a week after she was shot dead at her home. desperation as floods devastate pakistan — the government appeals for international assistance as more than 1,000 people are killed and millions more displaced. england thrash south africa to level the series.

they beat them inside three days at old trafford to set up a deciding grand finale at the oval the week after next. and the man running 67 marathons in 67 days up the river danube. good morning. there's a lot of dry weather to come today — although, that said, a little bit of light, patchy rain across the northwest first thing this morning. the best of the sunshine in the southeast. but for those that are desperate to see some heavier rain, i think i can see some on the distant horizon — i'll tell you more about that a little bit later on. it's sunday 28th august. our main story. the prime minister has said whoever succeeds him will announce another huge package of financial support to help people cope with soaring energy bills this winter. writing in the mail on sunday, boris johnson acknowledged that the next few months would be difficult, as households face sky—high costs. opposition parties and charities say more help is needed now. the price cap set by the regulator

0fgem will rise by 80% in october. that means the typical annual energy bill, paid by direct debt, will increase from £1,971 to more than £3,500. pre—payment meter customers will pay an average of £3,608 — £59 a year more than those on direct debit. let's speak to our political correspondent, lone wells — lone, more promises of help but still no detail about what is going to be done to help people and when. i think starting to become a very worrying countdown for a lot of the general public because any clarity on support and for help available this winter is currently on hold until we have a new prime minister.

we have a bit of a sense of what both candidates would do, although clarity has been lacking throughout this campaign. liz truss, the frontrunner said she cannot confirm any support available until she is in number ten any support available until she is in numberten as any support available until she is in number ten as pro—minister but her team have hinted that the might provide more targeted support for some more vulnerable households said her approach is tax cuts and has announced a cut in national insurance and is thinking of a cut insurance and is thinking of a cut in vat or the threshold at which people start paying income tax as well. these are all measures under consideration. rishi sunak has been

more specific in saying he thinks there needs to be support for everyone but with specific emphasis on more vulnerable households such as pensioners and people on welfare and disability benefits and when it comes to some of those more vulnerable households who would want to as far as possible make up the difference between what the price cap was before and what it is set to go cap was before and what it is set to 9° up cap was before and what it is set to go up to so those most vulnerable households would feel that increase. those other two options on the table but there is a lot of nervousness both among the general public but also among conservative mps, some of whom privately have expressed concern the more this contest has gone on the more that clarity for people which is so urgent is being delayed. at 8.30 this morning, we'll be talking to a panel of experts about rising energy costs — email your questions to bbcbrea kfast@bbc. co. uk.

churches across liverpool will be remembering olivia pratt—korbel today, almost a week after the nine—year—old was shot dead in her home. our reporter phil mccann is at the scene for us. phil, tributes are still coming in for the little girl, who was described by her family as cheeky and nosey? some very moving messages attached to these growing floral tributes. there was a really special moment yesterday at anfield at the liverpool game went on the ninth minute there was applause for a nine—year—old olivia and of course you'll never walk alone and captain jordan henderson had a special

t—shirt on dedicated to olivia. we are told at the special services this morning olivia will be remembered in prayers and here in dovecot there will be books of condolence open. last night merseyside police announced two people arrested on suspicion of murder and attempted murder have been released on bail, one recalled to prison for breaching the terms of his licence. both were arrested on thursday and friday last week by armed police. parents and children were watching on as it happened. merseyside police say the desperate was need people to come from and —— forward with information and this is a community desperate for answers because it is five days since liverpool walk up to the devastating news a nine—year—old girl had been shot dead in her own hallway.

more than 1,000 people have been killed and millions more have been forced from their homes as floods have devastated pakistan in one of the worst monsoon disasters to hit the country. pakistan's prime minister has said the magnitude of the calamity is greater than expected and officials have appealed for more international aid. pumza fihlani is in the sindh province for us and sent this report. the rain may have stopped for the time but the devastation is far from over. one of the reasons for that is about 60% of pakistan is still waterlogged. this community are living on the side of a new water section that's been created from flooding that come from up north in the country. this family arrived here just last night and say where they work was simply uninhabitable. a secondary problem has been created in this country, and that is of hunger. many of these people were living in rural communities where they were able to farm or use their livestock for a

living. all of that's gone now and they are dependent on aid, but agencies have said resources are scant, that people are overstretched, and there simply isn't enough help available in the country. these families have said they don't know where their next meal is going to come from or how long they will be stuck here. the birth father of tony hudgell has had his release from prison blocked under new powers to protect the public. tony, now seven, was so badly abused as a baby he needed to have both legs amputated. for ten years in 2018. smith was due for release next month, halfway through his sentence, but his case will now be reviewed by the parole board. the us navy says two of its guided—missile cruisers are passing through the taiwan strait. china has been holding large—scale military exercises in the area to express its anger at a visit to taiwan by the speaker of the us house of representatives, nancy pelosi. washington says the ships are demonstrating freedom of navigation through international waters. beijing maintains taiwan is an integral part of chinese territory.

dutch police say at least three people have been killed and several more injured after a truck crashed into a street party near rotterdam. it's understood the lorry veered off the road and rolled into a neighbourhood barbecuejust south of the city. the driver has been arrested. the cause of the crash is not yet known. there's a warning that the impact of ongoing strikes by bin collectors in scotland could pose a risk to human health. public health scotland has highlighted the dangers of a build up of food, animal and human waste and says councils may have to decontaminate areas where bins have overflowed. talks aimed at ending the dispute over pay have continued but no agreement has yet been reached. the prince of wales has edited a special edition of the british african—caribbean newspaper, the voice, to mark its 40th anniversary. it carries interviews with baroness doreen lawrence — the mother of stephen lawrence — and campaigner baroness floella benjamin —

in an edition that focusses on the themes of community cohesion, education, and climate. the voice's executive director, paulette simpson, said the prince shared their vision for positive change. this collaboration was important. and what i deeply hope is that many other persons will see this move that he has made as an example for positive collaboration that will create a better society. figs, avocados and lemons are the sort of thing you'd expect to see growing in the mediterranean — but this summer's warm weather has brought them closer to home. gardeners have been able to cultivate more exotic plants here in the uk — let's find out more from john hughes, who's a gardening expert. what sort of have been able to grow, it

is what your role is growing that has done critically well. you —— it is what you are drawing. it has done particularly well. behind me is my lemon tree covered in green lemons at the moment so not very visual. i have had the biggest and best crop of figs i have ever had, the most luscious things you will ever taste and that is all down to the wonderful sunshine we have found. i5 wonderful sunshine we have found. is itjust a case of making them most of the hotter, drier weather we have had a list of special expertise people might need if they want to grow as luscious figs as those? i think the expertise you need is foresight. the problem is that the changes we are seeing in the weather is very unpredictable so it is very

nice to have this hot barbecue summer, for sure, nice to have this hot barbecue summer, forsure, but nice to have this hot barbecue summer, for sure, but next year it might be cold and wet. that is the problem you are dealing with, not only is the climate changes but also as it becomes more weird, and we never know how extreme it is going to be. so it is quite difficult to plan for the future. all you can do is have a go at things, i think. but some of the things you can do i look for plants that are drought tolerant, for example. maybe plant a few more of those. and go for some of the things that are a little bit more spectacular. you see mediterranean, even in some instances a little bit tropical. on a whim, i bought a hibiscus plant. and it has got the most enormous pink bloom on it at the moment. sadly, it is right next to a bright

red thing in flower at the same time so my wife touts every time she walks past. ——tuts. so my wife touts every time she walks past. --tuts._ so my wife touts every time she walks past. --tuts. climate change is an issue — walks past. --tuts. climate change is an issue for _ walks past. --tuts. climate change is an issue for assault _ walks past. --tuts. climate change is an issue for assault what - walks past. --tuts. climate change is an issue for assault what are - walks past. --tuts. climate change is an issue for assault what are the | is an issue for assault what are the plants that have been struggling this year that other staples many gardens? 50 this year that other staples many cardens? . , this year that other staples many cardens? ., , ., , , gardens? so many of the staples reall are gardens? so many of the staples really are struggling, _ gardens? so many of the staples really are struggling, so - gardens? so many of the staples really are struggling, so this - gardens? so many of the staples really are struggling, so this is l really are struggling, so this is the time of year i should have a great big pile of runner beans in my dinner plate. i got nothing because it has been so dry they have not been able to set any fruit. my potato crop is tiny this year because that just potato crop is tiny this year because thatjust hasn't been enough water, and it's one of the things we have to deal with, i'm afraid. as a gardener, you know every year is going to be a little bit different

and you just have to make the best of whatever you've got. in this year it is been all about enjoying the bounty of things like figs and lemons and having many more barbecues are normal, but being bitterly disappointed that i won't have enough potatoes to see you through the winter. you have enough potatoes to see you through the winter. you mentioned a little earlier— through the winter. you mentioned a little earlier about _ through the winter. you mentioned a little earlier about adjusting - through the winter. you mentioned a little earlier about adjusting for - little earlier about adjusting for drought conditions. of course, there are many areas under a hosepipe ban at the moment. are there particular plants that you recommend drawing that would suit those conditions? i think you need to have a look and take your inspiration from nature. look at what grows in the mediterranean, things like arabs and thyme thrive on having very little water. —— things like beautiful

things that you get, very happy not to grow in water. i think you can look round and see things that are growing in harsher conditions and those of the things you should go for. ., ., ., .. ., for. you are accentuating the ositive for. you are accentuating the positive which _ for. you are accentuating the positive which is _ for. you are accentuating the positive which is great - for. you are accentuating the positive which is great but. for. you are accentuating the i positive which is great but does for. you are accentuating the - positive which is great but does it worry you that things are changing? tremendously. it used to be easy to work out what you would be able to grow in any one year. it is much harder now because i don't know if it's going to be hot and dry or cold and wet or somewhere in between. i was going to have winters that tend not to be very cold? that means

things will go through the winter but also the pests and diseases will go through the winter as well. but suddenly, we are going to be hit, it wasn't that many years ago we went down 2—19 here so it is not impossible we will be cut out whatever we do and that is the worrying thing. has whatever we do and that is the worrying thing-— whatever we do and that is the wor in: thin. a , ., worrying thing. as you said before, climate getting _ worrying thing. as you said before, climate getting weirder, _ worrying thing. as you said before, climate getting weirder, global- climate getting weirder, global weirding. but happy to see the figs you have drawn this year —— grown this year. get the tequila n. ——in.

scientists may have found a new ally in theirfight to clean up the waters on the south coast of england — oysters. university researchers believe the molluscs, along with marine worms, could tackle the increasing amount of algae in our coastal waters, asjon cuthill has been finding out. hopefully they won't be too far today. this pontoon has a secret. under the wooden boards a scientific experiment is taking place. this is one of our oyster cages that's housed our oysters since may last year. these oysters are part of a project to try and clean up our coastal waters. the problem is algal growth triggered by excessive nutrients from sewerage discharge and farming run—off. it forms these mats that float,

but when the tide goes out, they settle on top of the intertidal mud and that's where most of those wintering birds will be feeding. so there's, first of all, this barrier of algae that they need to feed through to get into the mud but also having that layer of algae reduces the amount of oxygen in the mud. so can a few oysters really make a difference? a good analogy given to me was that they act a little bit like a hoover, so they filter out the particulate to grow, and what we're doing is seeing how good those oysters are at removing those nutrients from the water. portsmouth and bournemouth universities are working with seven other organisations across the uk and france to try and find a solution. other ideas including feeding the algal mats to worms and seeing if seaweeds can lower nutrient levels and reduce algae. there's nothing better than working with nature to solve a problem and it's so important that we spend that time in understanding the ways that we can put nature back in balance.

you can see the amount of marine species living on these cages. we've recorded over 150 different species from sea squirts to sea spiders, to mussels, common shell crab, that one. of course, stopping the nutrients entering our coastal waters would solve the problem. in the meantime, though, nature might find a way to heal itself. jon cuthill, bbc news. here's chris with a look at this morning's weather. we have been spoiled this morning. mainly— we have been spoiled this morning. mainly because we have had high cloud _ mainly because we have had high cloud in_ mainly because we have had high cloud in the sky that has been picked — cloud in the sky that has been picked up _ cloud in the sky that has been picked up by the early rising sun to -ive picked up by the early rising sun to give these — picked up by the early rising sun to give these rather spectacular pictures _ give these rather spectacular pictures. this one was from the moray— pictures. this one was from the moray area _ pictures. this one was from the moray area of scotland. a couple of hot air—

it is the world's second—biggest carnival, and europe's largest street event which returns to west london today for the first time since 2019. it was cancelled last year and the year before due to the pandemic, but this year's event is going ahead, and it has been a busy time for the army of costume makers. we cannot wait to get back onto the streets. it has been so long that we haven't been out there together. and for carrie and her family team, it can take some time to create the extravagant costumes for carnival. eight weeks of making costumes toward carnival. we make the templates, we make prototypes. we then mass—produce the different costumes, the headpiece, the colours, the armbands and we always make big, backpack structures, so we have metalwork.

the notting hill carnival has taken place in london since the 1960s on each august bank holiday over two days. it's an important celebration of culture, diversity and inclusivity. this year's theme is "a time to remember" — a tribute to the carnival�*s history and heritage. this year, for the first time, we'll also be broadcasting live via our youtube channel, so those that are unable to make it can come watch from the comfort of their own home, but what those that do come to carnival can expect to see, the usual bright and colourful costumes, steel bands, we have many sound systems as well as the stages were people will be able to see artist performances. not to mention the food that will be available. the event will be visited by more than two million people over two days. officers from london's metropolitan

police will be on duty in their thousands. it will be one of the biggest events they have policed in the last few years. as is tradition, carnival will start before sunrise today followed by the children's parade which begins at 10.30 this morning. as in previous years, at 72—second silence will be observed to remember those who died in the grenfell tower tragedy five years ago. the remains of the building are close by and visible on the carnival route. greg mckenzie, bbc news. and we'll be chatting to singer alexandra burke and dj linett kamala about the notting hill carnival on our programme tomorrow. home and away superfanjulia hales has watched all 5,800 episodes of the australian soap — but has always wondered why there's no—one like her in the cast. now she's created a play

about her quest to become the first person with down's syndrome to appear in the show, and it's being performed at the edinburgh international festival. pauline mclean reports. # you know we belong together...#. julia hales has loved home and away since she was eight years old. i've never missed an episode. i love the old characters, the new characters, i love the action, the drama, the romance. what it didn't have was a character like her so she created one along with a show that examines her quest to be the first person with downs syndrome to appear in home and away. it's just a message for everyone that people with disabilities and down syndrome people can be

on stage cos i want everyone to hear them and what they can do and to listen about what kind of work that they do so that's why i like to have more people see us on stage and to see us on film and television. edinburgh is important tojulia. she lived here as a baby and this is the first time she's been back. the show was due to come to the edinburgh international festival in 2020 and was further delayed whenjulia got covid. i was very disappointed cos i worked so hard onto this show for so many years and now it's finally here, ijust can't believe it's really happening, you know, cos it did do a few seasons in london and now here, in the big, amazing beautiful town, ijust can't believe it. next stop, sydney opera house wherejulia hopes that, at last, her dream of being in home and away will come true. holly mclean, bbc news, edinburgh.

i would never have thought come back home and away without neighbours. —— would outlive the neighbours. stay with us, plenty more still to come on breakfast. hello, this is breakfast with rogerjohnson and luxmy gopal. we've been talking a lot about the energy price cap this morning — and how it's likely to affect your bills over the coming months. let's try to answer

captain and had an incredible day on day two with his first century as captain and has just been leading from the front throughout this campaign and now set up a tantalising test match. that campaign and now set up a tantalising test match. at the oval. knot next thursday, _ tantalising test match. at the oval. knot next thursday, the _ tantalising test match. at the oval. knot next thursday, the thursday i knot next thursday, the thursday after. that will be the decider. england's cricketers have levelled the test series against south africa at 1—1. the captain ben stokes was player of the match and described their victory by an innings and 85 runs as "amazing". they now head to the oval for the deciding test a week on thursday. our sports correspondentjoe wilson was at old trafford. just three days at old trafford but for england they were almost perfect. james anderson defeated south africa's captain like that and the course seemed set. but aggressive and it doesn't matter defiantly with an injured finger. and between lunch and tea, no wickets fell. now this was a

challenge. when england were overwhelmed in the first test match of this series, ben stokes said don't worry, we willjust win the next two matches. but to make this victory happen, ben stokes needed ben stokes. and the mention changing speu ben stokes. and the mention changing spell of bowling. watch the next delivery. that was keegan peterson finally gone after hours of resistance. then the was the stumps were waiting forjames anderson again. it finished in a rush. three wickets in the south african second innings for anderson, and four for the recalled ollie robinson. england's emphatically completed the win set up by friday's batting went ben stokes had made 100. it is. win set up by friday's batting went ben stokes had made 100. it is, you know, ben stokes had made 100. it is, you know. real — ben stokes had made 100. it is, you know. real sort _ ben stokes had made 100. it is, you know, real sort of _ ben stokes had made 100. it is, you know, real sort of confidence - know, real sort of confidence booster. the way we applied ourselves at bat, bowl, and in the field, an incredible team performance. it sets up the series really nicely, all to play for in the last at the oval wife the third

5—0 half—time, we all know that how often does it happen that one team puts the foot off the gas and we didn't want to, and not because we don't respect bournemouth, it's the opposite, we just wanted to have a 100% satisfying experience for us that we can use from and go in from from here. crystal palace went 2—0 up at manchester city but it couldn't last. erling haarland, the premier league's marquee summer signing, lit up the game with a hat—trick as city won 4—2 to go top, for a few hours at least. commentator: haarland on a hat-trick! _ never in doubt! arsenal began the day as leaders and gabriel ensured they would it end it the same as the gunners came from 1—0 down to beat fulham 2—1. brighton themselves spent a few minutes on the peak.

their 1—0 over leeds, their third in four games, and pascal has been involved in all their league goals this campaign. manchester united needed to prove that monday's defeat of liverpool was notjust a flash in the pan. bruno fernandez scored the only goal of the afternoon at a stubborn southampton as united ground out another three points. raheem sterling scored his first goals for chelsea as they disposed of leicester 2—1 at stamford bridge. the foxes looked fragile, in the relegation zone, three defeats and a draw to their name. and if liverpool have recovered from a false start, everton are stuck in the blocks, letting slip the lead to draw 1—1 with brentford. a first league win remains elusive. jim lumsden, bbc news. rangers looked inspired by their progress to the champions league group stage as they beat ross county 4—0 to go top of the scottish premiership. antonio colak scored the crucial goal in their qualifying win over psv eindhoven and was on the scoresheet again with a strike in each half at ibrox.

it puts rangers a point above celtic having played a game more. the champions will return to the top of the table if they win at dundee united this lunchtime. elsewhere there were wins for aberdeen, kilmarnock and st mirren. the belgian grand prix gets underway this afternoon with carlos sainz on pole, but the action at the back of the grid could be more exciting. championship leader max verstappen was more than half a second quicker than the spaniard in qualifying at spa. but he and title rival charles leclerc have been demoted for using too many engine parts. they'll start from fifteenth and sixteenth. rory mcilroy put himself well in contention at the tour championship in atlanta before storms rolled in to suspend play. mcilroy still has two holes of his third round to play. before the rain came the highlight was an eagle at the sixth — set up with this fantastic approach shot.

mcilroy is is—under overall — four shots behind the leader, america's scottie scheffler. rafa nadal says he's sad that novak djokovic won't be competing at the us open. djokovic is unvaccinated so isn't allowed into the united states for the tournament which starts tomorrow. so another missed opportunity for djokovic to equal nadal�*s 22 grand slams. this, very sad news. it's always a shame when the best players of the world are not able to to play a tournament because of injuries or because of different reasons. and, in this case, not having one of the best players of the history in the draw of a grand slam is always an important miss.

of huge architectural importance, but the use of cement by victorians to patch up gaps has led to cracks and water damage. in 2019, a survey confirmed these fan—vaulted ceilings are at risk. they were just using things they thought at the time were useful for the building. they still had those traditional skills, as well, but with what we know, we can get rid of that cement and repoint it with lime and bring it back to its original state. known to many as hogwarts, the cloister has appeared in three harry potter movies — it's also where the monks used to sit and study. it is a huge area and one that is really beloved of people for all kinds of reasons, not least because it is one of our most popular filming destinations, but it's also one of the few bits of the old abbey life that still exists. the work is intricate and all done by hand and possible thanks to £550,000

donation aimed at preserving the area for visitors. i haven't been here for a little while, but it's reminded me of how beautiful it is here, and what a nice place it is to come to. i'm fascinated into what parts harry potter was in. it would be good to continue - with restoring everything so it can last for generations to come. the stonemasons here are going to be training a team of apprentices and that means that skills are going to be be passed on to the next generation, and its help they are going to need — there are 40 of these bays and there are 80 of these fans to be restored. nobody�*s really touched this since the 19505, and it's quite possible that no—one will touch it again for another 100, 200 years, so it's really exciting. this first small section of work will determine how long the whole project could take — and we are talking years, if not decades.

storage depot right here in beverley. in this unit we have about 60 pantomime sets, ranging in sizes. we have aladdin, cinderella, dick whittington, peter pan, goldilocks, beauty and the beast — you name it, we got it. you see the backdrops and it's on the database so we know what is in each pallet and where each is going this year. this is the finale for south end this year, we've built this in stores, the carpenters have finished and it has been completed in the last few days. and they paint and repair. this is a refurbishment of a cottage forjack and the beanstalk which is going to bromley. it has been a tough old job because it was pretty worn. the thing about working in such a magical place is that with one rub of a magic lamp, you can be transformed into a bearfrom goldilocks. this one was last worn by nigel havers. or the giant from jack and the beanstalk.

underneath this giant is craig smith, though, not me. and if you feel this is quite something, this is just one of four units on this estate. the second has all this. over the coming months, 120 articulated lorries full of scenery, props and costumes will be sent from here and other depots to pantomimes all over the country. this is one aladdin's cave that has kept its secret well. simon spiked reporting there. when kieran alger looked out over the danube river in vienna ten years ago, it sparked a rather unusual idea. a decade later, he's now an ultra—runner, attempting to complete a 2,000—mile journey across europe

injust two months. his route has taken him from the black sea in romania, through bulgaria, serbia, croatia, hungary and slovakia, into austria. in a few days, he plans to finish at the danube's source in germany. let's take a look at his journey so far. music.
