our medical editor fergus walsh reports. every week, around 1,000 men in the uk are told they have prostate cancer. bill turnbull was diagnosed in late 2017. like many men, he'd put off getting symptoms checked out. i prided myself on the fact that i had not been to see my gp for four years. i was not aware that something in fact was going rather wrong inside me. i was getting pains in my legs, and my hips particularly, and they would come and go and i thought this is old age. finally, he went for a checkup. he said, "well, i'mjust going to give you a blood test, just a sort of mot, if you like, just to check a few things out". the next morning he called me and asked me to come in pretty quickly. and the doctor said, "it's fairly clear from this that

you have advanced prostate cancer and that it has spread to the bone". i thought now i've got to deal with the future or having much less of a future than i thought i had. bill revealed his diagnosis in a celebrity edition of the great british bake off in aid of the charity stand up to cancer, explaining why you shouldn't delay getting symptoms checked out. if i'd had a test a few years ago, we would have diagnosed it early and knocked it on the head earlier. my survival possibilities would be a lot better. his openness about his cancer had an immediate and significant effect. cancer charities say it will have saved many lives. bill has made a profound impact on raising awareness of prostate cancer.

when he so openly and candidly talked about his diagnosis in 2018, the following year we saw an increase in 20% of referrals into the nhs and our own helpline in fact had 200% increase in people making calls. so he has worked with us to campaign tirelessly to make sure that men understand about their risk of prostate cancer and what they can do about it. he has literally helped save thousands of lives. the actor and writer stephen fry revealed his prostate cancer diagnosis around the same time. his was caught early. the turnbull and fry effect led to many men getting their cancer diagnosed sooner. hello. hi, bill. hi. how are you? nice to meet you. carl skinner went for tests as a result of seeing bill on tv. his prostate cancer was caught before it was too late, and he responded well to treatment. carl and his daughter lisa met

bill in person in 2018. i think we just feel hugely indebted to you. i don't think you should, but thank you. i appreciate it. thanks very much. it was just something i thought was the right thing to do at the time. it's very heartwarming when when people get in touch. and i think i have done at least one useful thing in my life. every year, around 52,000 men in the uk will be diagnosed with cancer of the prostate, or walnut—sized gland at the base of the bladder. more than three quarters will survive at least a decade. but the trouble is too many men are being diagnosed once their cancer has spread. prostate cancer mainly affects men over 50. a family history of the disease is another risk factor, and there's a much higher incidence among black men. early prostate cancer doesn't usually have symptoms, but problems with peeing, needing to go more often, difficulty starting or stopping can be a sign.

pain in the back or hips or blood in the urine or semen are other warning signs. there's no single test for prostate cancer. physical exams, scans and biopsies are all used. you may be offered a blood test. high levels of the protein psa can indicate cancer, but it's not always reliable. in 2019, i reported from university college hospital in london about a trial examining whether an mri scan and psa blood test could be used to diagnose those prostate cancers which are growing aggressively and need urgent treatment, as opposed to those which may never cause problems. if successful, within five years, it could lead to a screening programme, a bit like those for breast and cervical cancer. bill turnbull�*s death will undoubtedly lead to another surge in men seeking answers

for nagging symptoms which they may have put off getting checked for months or even years, and it will hopefully save many more lives. fergus walsh, bbc news. quite a few people you see in those films are joining us live this morning, including that family you saw bill meeting for whom he was so important because him being so public about his diagnosis meant a lot of people just came forward he wouldn't have done otherwise, which is amazing in itself. you saw colin and lisa there and they willjoin us later on. let's take a look at some of this morning's papers paying tribute to bill. the metro's headline reads "thank you bill". it's in reference to what we've just been talking about — the thousands of lives he's said to have saved by being so open about his prostate cancer and urging men to get tested. the daily mail has a picture of bill and carol dancing together

after carol announced she would be taking part in strictly come dancing. bill came sixth on the show in one of its early seasons in 2005 and we'll be talking to his dance partner karen later in the programme. and the express features bill and his wife sesi. paying tribute to her husband she said, "lovely billy made us laugh every day". we'll be joined throughout the programme this morning by some of those who knew bill best — his former colleagues we'll also bejoined by bill's strictly partner, karen hardy, who has described bill as "a gentleman and a mentor". let's take a look back at some of their moments together on the programme. # i took my troubles down to madam rue. # you know that gypsy with the gold tattoo. # she's got a pad down on 34th and vine. # and seven little bottles

avoid being found by the police. if you are found doing this, then we will do everything legitimately possible to bring you to justice. detectives have also released footage of this man who was nearby on the night of the shooting and who they say might have important information. police have been continuing to stand guard outside the house where 0livia died. the investigation is said to have made significant progress, but the killer, who police have described as toxic, is still at large. john donnison, bbc news. the conservative leadership race has entered its final hours. party members have until five o'clock today to vote for who they want to be the next prime minister. liz truss and rishi sunak will have to wait until monday for the result. 0ur political correspondent, helen catt, joins us now from westminster. it feels like it's been quite a

while to be honest, but we are right at the end now and just these closing stages and then monday we find out the result? taste closing stages and then monday we find out the result?— find out the result? we do, yes, this contest _ find out the result? we do, yes, this contest started _ find out the result? we do, yes, this contest started way - find out the result? we do, yes, this contest started way back i find out the result? we do, yes, this contest started way back in | this contest started way back in july when mps started the process of whittling down the candidates to the final two and then that's gone to the membership for the last few weeks for them to vote on. pretty much since the start of that phase when it went out to the membership, liz truss has been polling quite a long way ahead of rishi sunak although if you talk to his team they will say he's going down really well at the hustings particularly the wembley ones this week, but it is widely expected it will be liz truss announced as the new leader on monday. that happens around lunchtime. the new leader doesn't have a very long time to get used to the idea before on tuesday boris johnson will formally resign to the queen, the new prime minister will be appointed, they will have to go through all the usual things a new prime minister has to do, appointing their ministers, their ministers, their ministers, their ministers, their cabinet, getting briefings, putting these things in place, but

against the backdrop of that real—time pressure of knowing they have to move swiftly to do something to help people with the cost of living, with energy bills, knowing that that rise in a typical household bill of 80% comes in in october, knowing that small 0ctober, knowing that small businesses are already facing bills of many more times that, they will know that they will need to move swiftly to tackle that, as one is doing all the usual things in the new prime minister will have to do. thanks very much. a team of united nations inspectors has carried out a long—awaited visit to the russian—controlled zaporizhzhia nuclear power plant in southern ukraine. the experts are to maintain a presence at the site, which was occupied by russia soon after the invasion of ukraine in february. the inspectors were accompanied to the plant by russian soldiers after a riskyjourney delayed by shelling. we are going to focus on the energy crisis now. we are going to go to blackpool. the black loop

illumination start tonight. it's one of those days, all the energy being used and we all know the pressures on households and businesses alike?— pressures on households and businesses alike? yes, we've all heard that _ businesses alike? yes, we've all heard that phrase, _ businesses alike? yes, we've all heard that phrase, haven't i businesses alike? yes, we've all heard that phrase, haven't we? | businesses alike? yes, we've all. heard that phrase, haven't we? it's like blackpool illuminations in here. usually used to tell me to switch the lights off, but a night out here it will be blackpool illuminations. this is one which has been switched on early. it's a tradition that's been going since 1879, and every year, it attracts millions of visitors, in fact, last year, more than 17 million people came to have a look up and down this six mile stretch of promenade to see what it looked like throughout the winter months. earlier this week i was able to get a bit of a glimpse of what it will look like. there was a ride along the prom event where people were able to cycle along the prom and take a look at the lights early and i ask them how they are all feeling ahead of this winter. an evening fuelled by pedal power, bringing the summer

holidays to an end. the illuminations providing free fun for thousands of families as energy bills start to ramp up. i mean, we've already spoke to the children about how christmas might be different. you know, they might not get the big presents they are used to and we might do little things. it is a worrying time. you know, you think about, we've got pets at home, we have a chameleon that has its tank on 24/7. you know, you think even things like that, you're thinking, oh my goodness, that's more pennies going down the pan! things that you thought would never be an issue? yeah, yeah. things you'd never have to worry about. and even as they take in the spectacle of the lights, many here fear this winter will bring much darker times. i have a metre and it used to say, you know, i put £10 on, it was going to say i had six days, and now it's down to 4.2, and each week it's getting less and less that my money buys, or your electric is cut off and there's nothing you can do about it. i think it's a terrifying winter ahead for everybody. and this six—mile stretch

of promenade is no longer paved with gold say some businesses, who have already noticed people have less cash to spend. how important are the illuminations? they're very important. these are what we wait for, the illuminations, i especially the weekends, especially the fireworks. i they really do make - a difference to our season. among the rush of visitors, many who want the government to set out to clearer path to bring down energy bills. i think it's a bit ridiculous, to be honest. i think, in other countries, they have asked the energy companies to absorb it themselves. the energy companies seem to make a lot of money and we are struggling? yeah, it's not fair. what do you think of them going up? it's disgusting. absolutely disgusting. we are happy in terms of it's not going to make a massive difference to our life, but it is ridiculous. but for this night, at least, the illuminations are providing some relief. brightening up a town where some fear they will struggle to keep the lights on at home.

good morning from bbc london. i'm thomas magill. a london—based children's charity says it's seen a spike in demand for its services as a result of the rising cost of living. the kids network, which offers mentoring to youngsters, says it's now helping 600 families compared to just 30 when it started in 2018. it says rising energy bills and food prices are having a negative impact on people's mental health, and it expects demand to continue to rise. 75% of the children that we work with don't have access to any other services. so families are often working really, really hard to make ends meet, and it's really affecting parents and families' mental health. caregivers are really struggling with how to square this circle. well, sticking with the rising cost of living — one london estate agents has reported private rentals in the capital will continue to increase next year.

hamptons found the supply of homes available to rent has declined and this trend could also continue. 0lympic rowers have hit out at plans for a new pier in south west london, claiming it will interfere with the famous 0xford—cambridge boat race. uber boats wants to build the new pier next to putney bridge to meet growing demand. but those objecting say they're concerned about the safety of rowers if the proposal goes ahead. 29 decorative panels designed by the artistjohn piper that were located at a former gas works in fulham have been given grade ii listed status. the panels are the only known example of a permanent outdoor artwork in his diverse body of work. let's have a look at how the tube is moving this morning. the metropolitan and 0verground are both part suspended. now the weather with elizabeth rizzini. hello there. good morning.

once again there will be some showers rattling around across the capital today. it's going to be feeling a bit warmer than it was yesterday too. now certainly it's a mild start in the morning. temperatures in the mid teens in celsius. watch out for those showers through the morning. some of them could be heavy and even thundery in nature. don't take the positions on the map too literally because they could pop up just about anywhere. there will be some areas of cloud, but also some brighter spells emerging, particularly as we head through the afternoon. a bit of sunshine. and in the best of the sunshine, temperatures could lift as high as perhaps 26 or even 27 celsius. there's a south—easterly breeze and that's just dragging that warmer air our way, so a little warmer than it was yesterday. 0vernight tonight, again, a few showers around for a time but they should gradually fade away. we see the wind change to more of a south—westerly too. that sets the scene for the weekend. it's going to be quite unsettled a lot further west than us. we could see a few showers around on saturday morning potentially, but it does look like it's going to be dry for most of the day and there'll

even be some sunshine around, as well. temperatures a little lower because of the now south—westerly wind. turning a bit breezier on sunday. watch out for some more showers sunday evening. that's it for now. i'll be back in half an hour, so let's cross back to charlie and naga. hello, this is breakfast with charlie stayt and naga munchetty. we're celebrating the life and legacy of our friend bill turnbull this morning. his family has described him as bringing "warmth and humour into people's homes" — and for 15 years he certainly took every opportunity to find the light amongst the dark here on breakfast. jayne mccubbin has gone back through the archives to bring us bill's best laugh—out—loud moments. just before the cameras went live, bill would steady himself. and then,

speaking do over the last 2a hours have been speaking about their favourite memories, paying tribute. this was like a second home from home for him. he played such an integral part in this club and yet ironically he admits that he was a bit of a glory hunter photo he started supporting wickham when he was living nearby with his family down the road, and they got to the semifinals at the fa cup, and a love affair with wycombe wanderers started for him and his family. over the years he became the voice of the club, commentating in his spare time for the club website, and this morning they have put up a special tribute on the big screen. his legacy is huge here. i remember one of my favourite days with bill, with homework, was on a saturday afternoon, he said, come along to the match against leeds. in a leeds fan, i sat alongside him in the commentary box and saw first—hand as passion and his skills. we will be talking to one of his co—commentator

is in a minute but lets enjoy some of his highlights here over the last two decades. this is where the real game is. you haven't got any of your fancy dan millionaires. wycombe till i die! this is where it is. bill's home from home, adams park, the ground of wycombe wanderers. his family became fans when they lived near here over 20 years ago, and his bond with the club grew stronger despite moving away to salford and eventually suffolk. that, for me, is a yellow card. he became the voice of wycombe, co—commentating for the club's website, neverafraid to show his range of emotions... oh! whoa! and it wasn't far off. ..and having a massive impact on those working alongside him. he just attracted warmth and people would come up to him and just ask how he is and get a photo and he's going to be so sorely missed here. but he's left a real legacy and particularly in my career and those around me will be forever grateful for bill turnbull.

over the years, bill became close to the players and manager, gareth ainsworth, who we last spoke with just last month, and he was at the training ground when he heard the devastating news. you know, terrible. we say unexpected, and it was because he was such a fighter and such a great character. we all knew, obviously, bill was carrying the prostate cancer and he was fighting it unbelievably. and so with that, you all thought he's going to be around forever, bill. so, yeah, devastated. and probably the same feelings as everyone — wish i had called him the day before, wish i'd have spoke to him more, but you know, we have had some brilliant times with him here at wycombe. bill's influence here, his connection with the fans, the staff, the management, the players continued right throughout his illness into this season. he attended the play—off final at wembley in may, and he was a guest of the former chairman at the last home game he was able to make. so at the end of the game, i think one of those very special moments where gareth was walking

around with the players and gareth saw him and and they came up, and you know, it's a pretty tough climb up to the boxes in terms of getting through. they went through the crowd and they came up. and again, what a special moment on that day, both for bill, but also for the players and the people that have been in the club for a long time, to be able to just show that warmth back to bill and... oh, my god, yeah, not a dry eye in the house. really important thing about this game is... bill was such an integral part of this club that at one point, he was even allowed to give the pre—match team talk in the dressing room. what other broadcasters can claim that? at the end of the game you've got to have more goals than they have. all right? what are we going to do, then? win! win! one of the players in the dressing room that day was former captain matt bloomfield, who now coaches and who has also now moved to suffolk. out in the suffolk countryside, and i'm in felixstowe, we're about 45 minutes away. and he welcomed my wife and my two girls, we went round for lunch a couple of times,

spent the day with him and his wife, and just lovely people and made us feel so welcome. so at home. spoilt my girls and just a real nice man. i called him about three weeks ago just to sort of catch up on the start of the season, and he was really pleased with how we'd started. we beat burton and he was really chuffed about that. there it is. and wycombe wanderers have secured the three points. for two decades, then, bill has been a fixture on match day at adams park, and his legacy will live on here. he'll always be part of his adopted wycombe family. someone who knows just what it's like to listen to bill's passion in the commentary box as his fellow commentator. thanks forjoining us. what was he like to work with and how did he transform your own career? he how did he transform your own career? . , , . how did he transform your own career? , ., how did he transform your own career? ., , , ., ., , ., career? he was brilliant, he was a fantastic broadcaster, _ career? he was brilliant, he was a fantastic broadcaster, and - career? he was brilliant, he was a fantastic broadcaster, and so - fantastic broadcaster, and so helpful— fantastic broadcaster, and so helpful to me because we had a good deal, helpful to me because we had a good deal. i_ helpful to me because we had a good deal, i would tell him a bit about

some dry and sunny weather and times this weekend. this chart screams autumn. big area of low pressure in the west, bouts of heavy infantry rain, especially across some western areas. at this moment, there is some rain around, in the form of showers towards the south midlands, parts of south—east england. just working a bit further north and west. fairly hit and miss, bit further north and west. fairly hitand miss, many bit further north and west. fairly hit and miss, many places staying dry. more rain across western scotland and developing to the east of northern ireland. one or two showers in the east of scotland. a lot of people having a dry day with sunny spells. with the south—easterly wind, it feels more humid, especially when the sun comes out, to produce more widely into the 20s. out, to produce more widely into the 205. 2627 in out, to produce more widely into the 20s. 2627 in the south—east corner. tonight, after some heavy showers in wales and northern england, some of the wettest weather could be east of northern ireland, south—west scotland. some bouts of rain pushing across northern ireland throughout the night. the answer elsewhere, many places dry but compared to

recent nights it will be a much milder one thanks of those wins. they will be picking up all the time in fact it will be quite windy at times through this weekend especially across northern and must in areas and be prepared, there will be more rain around especially in the west. some will stay dry. that is the case as we start saturday across eastern areas. rain will come and go across northern ireland, south—west scotland. developing showers from south—west scotland through northern england, the north and east midlands towards east anglia. eitherside and east midlands towards east anglia. either side of those are some dry weather, some sunshine, a more windy day in the north of scotland but dry and sunny here. temperatures up to around 15 to 19. maybe 25 across parts of east anglia. in the west we could see something even more windy through saturday night into sunday, especially across ireland, packard because of some problem. the rain may ease off a time, more coming on as we go towards sunday morning. rain at times on saturday night, dry

across parts of england and wales but it is to the west where we will see the more relentless rain as we go through sunday with a strong list of the wins. windy across northern scotland. it may stay dry and brittle in orkney and shetland. not a huge amount of rain through eastern parts of england but all of us will notice on sunday will be much more blustery and with that it should feel a bit cooler. from climate change to the cost of living crisis and the war in ukraine, ros atkins has been taking a look at how some of this summer's biggest news events are linked together. let's look at how the biggest stories of the year connect. first of all, the cost of living. because prices are going up sharply, inflation in the uk is over io%. well, we've been hit by a very, very severe shock. and that shock is coming through, energy prices, i'm afraid. and the bank of england is clear on the cause and the consequence. you know, we've got to be blunt about this. it's coming from the actions of russia. i'm afraid, as you say, yes,

we are forecasting a recession now. and this impact connects to russian gas. it's exported across europe, but one key pipeline is currently shut for what moscow calls "maintenance". france, though, says russia is using gas as a weapon of war. and with doubts about supply, energy prices are up. so are food prices — ukraine is a major exporter of wheat. wheat prices are up 25% since last year. but russia alone isn't causing the cost—of—living crisis. there's climate change, too. a fundamental issue that we've got of increased frequency and increased severity of these severe weather events is a result of climate change. at the moment, there's a drought in europe and droughts mean lower food production. for example, the eu sunflower harvest is forecast to fall, which will force up the cost of cooking oil. droughts also affect electricity production from dams. that's happening in china, which means more electricity will have to come from coal, which in turn means more emissions

that cause climate change. and the war in ukraine may affect emissions, too. that's because europe's desire to get off russian energy may see countries increase other fossil fuel use in the short term. in the long term, though, it may drive a faster shift to renewables. and so climate change, the war and the cost of living connect in different ways. covid is connected, too, because as covid restrictions ended around the world, increased demand pushed up energy and food costs. covid also caused labour shortages, something that was exacerbated in the uk by brexit. these labour shortages drove up costs in many ways, one being disruption of the global supply chain. now, that's the system that allows us to produce and buy goods from far and wide. for decades, it's helped keep prices down, but when covid put it under pressure, businesses felt the difference. costs are rocketing. this year, we'll see about a £6 million bill on shipping, and we're having to pass that

on to our customers. which means more pressure on prices. and covid's impact on the supply chain connects to another story — china's growing power. because of all the goods made in the world, 29% come from china, and that's driven rapid economic growth and demand for more and more energy. now, much of that energy china produces itself. not all, though. and injune, russia became china's top supplier of crude oil. and so china's growth, which in part rests on western consumption, is now making it harder for the west to isolate russia economically. there's more, too — because chinese growth is also funding its military. these are recent drills near the self—governing island of taiwan, which china claims as its own. america condemn these drills, as china knew it would. and so in their very different ways, xijinping and vladimir putin are testing the west and the limits of its global influence. if we step back, what's at stake is the world order of the 21st century.

all of which and more awaits whoever becomes the uk's next prime minister. my plan is the right plan. to tackle inflation, to compassionately support those who most need our help. what we can't have is business as usual. we need to be bold and we need to do things differently. and so the cost—of—living crisis means many people need urgent help. it also, though, connects to fundamental questions about how we organise our world and treat our planet. it's been open for 186 years, but on saturday, the world's fifth oldest zoo — bristol zoo gardens — will close its gates to the public for the final time. now the process to relocate its animals — from [ions to flamingos — begins. our reporterjenny kumah has been to the zoo as visitors take a last look around. back in britain at the bristol zoo, i several newcomers got a very warm and affectionate welcome from the public. - for decades, bristol zoo has

welcomed new generations of species. baby rhinos and rare white tiger cubs are just some of the newcomers. and generations of families have been coming here to meet them. families like diana's — she's been coming here for 85 years and remembers riding wendy, the elephant. used to climb on here and you used to go on a ladder and she used to sway. why was it important for you to come today? this has been part of my life since a very small child. and i brought my grandchildren here and i brought my own children here. and it was always a haven. and i'm really sad it's going, but i'm glad that the animals will be freer. like diana, many are making their last visits. more than 80,000 people have come in the zoo's final month. and how long have you been coming here? oh, since i was a baby. since i was my son's age. because it was close, - we thought it would be good for grandchildren to come and see what i saw when i was _

nearertheirage. in the weeks running up to the closure, it's been really busy here, with the zoo even extending its opening hours to meet demand. but it was a general fall in visitor numbers, and the pandemic, which led to the zoo putting the site up for sale to cover funding shortfalls. around 70 species are moving to the zoo's more modern and larger sister site here in south gloucestershire. but around 300 creatures are being rehomed by other zoos — like this egyptian tortoise, who's relocating to devon. talk us through how you're going to take him from here. yeah, yeah. not too exciting — he's going to get strapped into my car seat and we've got a two—hourjourney back down to plymouth and we're going to go straight to the zoo. and he's got a lovely little habitat ready, off show at the moment, while he gets used to our surroundings at dartmoor. but for some of the larger creatures, it's a bit more complex. our flamingos, we will move by shipping them all together as a flock, and we'll move them

in a couple of vans. we'll actually put the flamingos loose in the back with padded sides, and they move much more efficiently that way. another challenge the zoo's facing is the rising cost of energy, especially as some enclosures need to be kept at high temperatures. the old sort of victorian buildings that we have on this site, thermally, are not very efficient, so they cost a lot of money to heat. the new zoo will have more energy—efficient buildings, much better use of energy and sustainability built into the whole zoo. this is me giving wendy and then chistina, the african elephant, a bath. so there are many positives about the move, but for staff, it's sad to leave this special site. i started work injanuary 1975. i worked here for 45 years and this site means everything to me. so to hear that the zoo is closing now and the grounds closing in a couple of days' time is a very, very sad day, i think. the process of moving will take several months. for now, though, the flamingos are on the move, the parrots are packing

their own boxes, and some don't seem that keen to leave. jenny kumar, bbc news. if it has been your home for that long... if it has been your home for that [one . .. ~ ., , if it has been your home for that lond...~ , long... when i was young i remember ddoin to long... when i was young i remember going to ltristol— long... when i was young i remember going to bristol zoo _ long... when i was young i remember going to bristol zoo and _ long... when i was young i remember going to bristol zoo and writing - long... when i was young i remember going to bristol zoo and writing a - going to bristol zoo and writing a letter to the duke of edinburgh because i was concerned about the welfare of a gorilla who was kept there. ~ ., ., welfare of a gorilla who was kept there. . ., ., i. ., ., there. what are you worried about? its there. what are you worried about? lts welfare. — there. what are you worried about? lts welfare. it _ there. what are you worried about? its welfare, it was _ there. what are you worried about? its welfare, it was in _ there. what are you worried about? its welfare, it was in a _ there. what are you worried about? its welfare, it was in a cage. - there. what are you worried about? its welfare, it was in a cage. i - there. what are you worried about? its welfare, it was in a cage. i got i its welfare, it was in a cage. i got a letter back. he said that they would make sure that the welfare of the gorilla was, you know... this was probably in the late 19605. i didn't know it had been going for 187 years. didn't know it had been going for 187 ears. ~ didn't know it had been going for 187 ears. . ., ., i. didn't know it had been going for 187 ears. . ., ., ., 187 years. well done for you for carind. time now to get the news, travel and weather where you are. good morning from bbc london. i'm thomas magill.

a london—based children's charity says it's seen a spike in demand for its services as a result of the rising cost of living. the kids network, which offers mentoring to youngsters, says it's now helping 600 families compared to just 30 when it started in 2018. it says rising energy bills and food prices are having a negative impact on people's mental health, and it expects demand to continue to rise. 75% of the children that we work with don't have access to any other services. so families are often working really, really hard to make ends meet, and it's really affecting parents and families' mental health. caregivers are really struggling with how to square this circle. well, sticking with the rising cost of living, one london estate agents has reported private rentals in the capital will continue to increase next year. hamptons found the supply of homes available to rent has declined and this trend could also continue.

and on this point if you're a renter in london we'd like to hear your experience of what that's like and how the market has changed in recent months. you can get in touch with us by emailing hellobbclondon@bbc.co.uk olympic rowers have hit out at plans for a new pier in south west london, claiming it will interfere with the famous oxford—cambridge boat race. uber boats wants to build the new pier next to putney bridge to meet growing demand. but those objecting say they're concerned about the safety of rowers if the proposal goes ahead. let's have a look at how the tube is moving this morning. the metropolitan and 0verground are both part suspended. other are both part suspended. than that, good service. now the weather with elizabeth rizzini. hello there. good morning. once again there will be some showers rattling around across the capital today. it's going to be feeling a bit warmer than it was yesterday too.

now certainly it's a mild start in the morning. temperatures in the mid teens in celsius. watch out for those showers through the morning. some of them could be heavy and even thundery in nature. don't take the positions on the map too literally because they could pop up just about anywhere. there will be some areas of cloud, but also some brighter spells emerging, particularly as we head through the afternoon. a bit of sunshine. and in the best of the sunshine, temperatures could lift as high as perhaps 26 or even 27 celsius. there's a south easterly breeze and that's just dragging that warmer air our way, so a little warmer than it was yesterday. overnight tonight, again, a few showers around for a time but they should gradually fade away. we see the wind change to more of a south—westerly too. that sets the scene for the weekend. it's going to be quite unsettled a lot further west than us. we could see a few showers around on saturday morning potentially, but it does look like it's going to be dry for most of the day and there'll even be some sunshine around, as well. temperatures a little lower because of the now south—westerly wind. turning a bit breezier on sunday. watch out for some more

showers sunday evening. on bbc radio london they are talking about a project to gather photos of waterloo and lambeth and they want to hear from you. waterloo and lambeth and they want to hearfrom you. i will waterloo and lambeth and they want to hear from you. i will be waterloo and lambeth and they want to hearfrom you. i will be back in half an hour. good morning and welcome to breakfast with charlie stayt and naga munchetty. celebrating the life and legacy of our friend and colleague, bill turnbull after his death at the age of 66. this is bbc breakfast with sian williams and bill turnbull. bill became one of the nation's most loved broadcasters, presenting breakfast for 15 years. we'll speak to his former sofa partners later on the show. we'll hear how bill's prostate cancer campaigning saved lives and encouraged thousands of men to come forward for testing. we'll hear about his real passions — his football team wycombe wanderers.

prostate cancer, and he went on to encourage other men to get themselves checked out. bill is being remembered by those who knew him as a "wonderful friend", "great fun" and "an incredible talent". graham satchell has this report. oh, no, time. fill, fill, fill, fill, fill! bill turnbull and sian williams with less than a minute to go before the start of another programme. thank you. 15? bill checking everything to make sure it's perfect. he was just great to work with. you don't get up at 3.30 in the morning for 11 years to sit next to somebody you don't like and we got on really, really well. this is breakfast with sian williams and bill turnbull. it felt like a family on set and the breakfast viewers felt like family to us. good morning, this is breakfast with louise minchin... - over the years, bill had 1a so—called tv wives, all of them saying the same thing. first that bill was funny, always funny.

he had a really mischievous sense of humour. _ it's a sign of you importance you have so many people in your studio. i don't know what that word meant! you need bill as part of your entourage. not saying words like that, i don't. i'll be your vocabularist. some little quirk would happen and you'd see bill start to laugh. that's another one. two for two. vocabularist? yeah. what is that? i've never heard of that in the states. | walking thesaurus. oh my goodness, he's on fire. and you knew that as soon as bill started to laugh, you were not going to be able to hold it together. you just put ist on the back of everything. i you've cracked the secret. i've got nothing. i thought i had something. you are the best guestist we've had. and some of my fondest moments of working with bill were just giggling uncontrollably.

he was a brilliant, talented, insightful, sharp—eyedjournalist, but at the heart of him was this really amusing funny person that i absolutely adored working with. we are meant to be hearing the sound of mosquitoes but they decided to stay in bed this morning. the day i let the mosquitoes out, for example, what were we doing even having them on the sofa? he was bitten by the mosquitoes. somebody has interviewed the prime minister, letting himself be bitten live on national television by mosquitoes. he enjoyed the versatility of being able to do everything you threw at him. he loved dressing up for children in need. he loved doing strictly. all the spangles and the fake tan, we used to joke about it, but he just loved that. # golden brown, texture like sun... we had a lot of laughs,

a lot of laughs, and i am really going to miss that. george bush is walking an environmental tightrope. bill had a long career as a foreign correspondent and by the time he came to breakfast tv he was hugely experienced and extremely rigorous. he expected high standards from everyone. he was an absolute stickler for accuracy, both in grammar and in spelling, as well, and i think he called it grammar hammer. it's to try to, not - to try and, for example. the banned list are legendary, iconic, unique, for example. don't use the word iconic connected to anything. it's a cliche. he mentored everybody on the programme. - he was like the father of bbc breakfast. - i'm definitely a betterjournalist because i sat next to him with that rigour for hours and hours. he taught me everything. he taught so many of us everything about journalism and about television. and about being a decent person in this industry.

he was kind and compassionate and wise. and a great friend. and i loved every minute of being with him and we are really going to miss him. when bill was diagnosed with prostate cancer in 2018, it was a devastating blow. he was an intensely private man but spoke out publicly, urging other men to get themselves checked. i don't think there are many people in this world who can change lives, save lives by what they say, and he did that and i think that's an incredible legacy and i know there will be people who will be waking up tomorrow morning safe and well because of him and that's an incredibly generous thing to have done. come on. saving other men's lives was a remarkable final act for a good man who lived an extraordinary life. i will remember 30 years of friendship. and support. and laughter.

what you saw on the telly was how he was. kind, gentle, funny, clever. just a lovely bloke, really. and i will miss him. absolutely a lovely guy. louise, a familiarface, she absolutely a lovely guy. louise, a familiar face, she sat on this sofa alongside bill for many years. it was a treat to be able to sit next to him, wasn't it? it was a treat to be able to sit next to him, wasn't it?— was a treat to be able to sit next to him, wasn't it? it is an absolute treat and just _ to him, wasn't it? it is an absolute treat and just listening _ to him, wasn't it? it is an absolute treat and just listening to - to him, wasn't it? it is an absolute treat and just listening to that - to him, wasn't it? it is an absolute treat and just listening to that has| treat and just listening to that has been a roller—coaster of emotions. i loved working with bill. and i loved what we've all said about him. he wasjust so funny, what we've all said about him. he was just so funny, he had a mischievous, naughty, wicked sense of humour and sometimes you see the glint in his eye and you'd go, oh no, i'm going to go, and once i had gone, there was no stopping. i remember when i first started working with him he said there is one rule, you must always laugh at myjokes and sometimes they weren't funny but i always laughed every

single day and the joy of listening to all of us talking about him and looking back over my photos is that those are the memories i will take with me, little giggles and would have all of the time. sian touched u non it, have all of the time. sian touched upon it. when _ have all of the time. sian touched upon it, when you _ have all of the time. sian touched upon it, when you get _ have all of the time. sian touched upon it, when you get up - have all of the time. sian touched upon it, when you get up at - have all of the time. sian touched | upon it, when you get up at stupid o'clock in the morning and coming together, you have no choice but to be a team, do you? ihla. together, you have no choice but to be a team, do you?— together, you have no choice but to be a team, do you? no, no choice at all. he be a team, do you? no, no choice at all- he wasn't _ be a team, do you? no, no choice at all. he wasn'tjust _ be a team, do you? no, no choice at all. he wasn'tjust a _ be a team, do you? no, no choice at all. he wasn'tjust a team, _ be a team, do you? no, no choice at all. he wasn'tjust a team, for - be a team, do you? no, no choice at all. he wasn'tjust a team, for me, l all. he wasn'tjust a team, for me, he was for the whole of the production team and i know we all loved him so much. it wasn't to say he wasn't sometimes tough on us, tough on me, if he thought you weren't being rigorous in your journalism, you are using words that were on the unofficial list, he always would come up with you would have a quiet word but that was always done with the programme at its heart. also i wouldn't be, as i said in a piece, such a good journalist if it wasn't for him and that eye for detail. also as well, you know what it's like, we wake up very early in the morning, and sometimes we are dealing with really hard stories and we don't know there

will be people watching this morning and maybe they walked out of the room, another child watching, he would always get the tone just spot—on and perfect and it always felt i was in safe hands and i know that's reflected in all the people watching today, that we were all in safe hands when bill was on the sofa. �* , . ., , sofa. i'm 'ust curious about the thin sofa. i'm just curious about the thing about _ sofa. i'm just curious about the thing about working _ sofa. i'm just curious about the thing about working with - sofa. i'm just curious about the thing about working with bill. thing about working with bill because obviously as another male presenter i never actually sat alongside him are sometimes on an outside broadcast, but what i'm hearing from all of production teams here, it's that thing that you touched on where he was tough on things when they went wrong. but that knack of being kind alongside that knack of being kind alongside thatis that knack of being kind alongside that is one that we can all learn from, because people in this industry sometimes kick off and we've all seen it, but from everything i hear, he had a knack somehow of making people get things right and not feel bad. and make things better, which is quite a

trick? i things better, which is quite a trick? , . ., ., things better, which is quite a trick? , .., ., ., ., trick? i wish we could all do that. i never saw _ trick? i wish we could all do that. i never saw him _ trick? i wish we could all do that. i never saw him kick— trick? i wish we could all do that. i never saw him kick off. - trick? i wish we could all do that. i never saw him kick off. it - trick? i wish we could all do that. i never saw him kick off. it was i i never saw him kick off. it was always done in a kind of gentle but stern way. and i think the way we appreciate that was because he was wise, hugely experienced, he'd come from and very important background of reporting, the washington correspondent, and i think it was kindness and generosity with his time, even when i was in contact with him, we are still members of a lottery syndicate which i'm still playing and i will go on playing by the way, but he was always kind with his time as well, so for example, when i left bbc breakfast, the first person i talked to it about that decision was bill and he was ill at the time but he took time out of his day to have a long conversation with me about that. i think we all really appreciated that he had a huge stature, an important reputation, but he always would give back to all of us. �* but he always would give back to all of us. . ., but he always would give back to all of us. �* ., ., , , but he always would give back to all ofus. . ., ., , , ., of us. and on a slightly more trivial note, _

decision to talk about his diagnosis with prostate cancer and it saved lives. i'm standing here today with a cameraman called bernard who went and got checked because of what bill said and he had an aggressive form of prostate cancer and he had an operation and he's here with me because of bill and that, for me, is a gift to everyone.— a gift to everyone. louise, every time i do — a gift to everyone. louise, every time i do an _ a gift to everyone. louise, every time i do an interview _ a gift to everyone. louise, every time i do an interview yesterday| a gift to everyone. louise, every i time i do an interview yesterday on radio 5 live and at the end of the interview someone messaged and said ijust booked my appointmentjust now, so even now bill is making a massive difference to everything. he was very competitive. how long did it take for him to let go that you beat him? he it take for him to let go that you beat him?— it take for him to let go that you beat him? ., beat him? he never let it go. he genuinely _ beat him? he never let it go. he genuinely never _ beat him? he never let it go. he genuinely never let _ beat him? he never let it go. he genuinely never let it _ beat him? he never let it go. he genuinely never let it go. - beat him? he never let it go. he i genuinely never let it go. virtually every conversation you've ever had, you know what, it was only because we just did one you know what, it was only because wejust did one round of the velodrome and if we had done it again i definitely would have been you, and that was something we would still argue about. i loved him so

much. he was such a joy to work with. the one thing you saw on that last day when we had that huge great big group hug, he was invested in you emotionally as well, and he was a brilliant person to hug too. haee a brilliant person to hug too. have ou let do a brilliant person to hug too. have you let go because _ a brilliant person to hug too. have you let go because i _ a brilliant person to hug too. have you let go because i haven't - a brilliant person to hug too. have you let go because i haven't let go that charlie beat us in the velodrome? that did happen. it’s velodrome? that did happen. it's 'ust velodrome? that did happen. it�*s just going to take one more race. no, i do remember that vaguely. i'm trying to move on. i no, i do remember that vaguely. i'm trying to move on-— trying to move on. i think what it shows, trying to move on. i think what it shows. its _ trying to move on. i think what it shows. its an — trying to move on. i think what it shows, it's an opportunity - trying to move on. i think what it shows, it's an opportunity for. trying to move on. i think what it shows, it's an opportunity for us| shows, it's an opportunity for us and bill would appreciate this, you very rarely get to see what team this is, and the camaraderie we have, notjust the on—air present as the bell production team, the directors, the studio, and bill neverforgot that and directors, the studio, and bill never forgot that and he never forgot this was a team production. he neverforgot that forgot this was a team production. he never forgot that and also he never forgot as well about everybody watching today and i know that so

many of you held him in such great affection. that's what he cared about, the team, he cared about the audience, he cared that we were as good as we possibly could be, and i just think that's a message we should all take forward in our lives, being kind and generous and as good as you can possibly be in whatever it is you do. that was what was so brilliant about him. he embraced everything. i remember i have a great privilege of travelling around the world with him and we did around the world with him and we did a piece for children in need, sport relief, around the world in 80 days, and i spent three weeks with him. i remember on that first day said to me, now, louise, just one thing, you know you had to listen up, don't use up know you had to listen up, don't use up all your conversation on the first day. and i was like, ok. you know what, we never ran out of things to say, because he had so much fun in his life and he was a great raconteur and told me hilarious stories about when he was young man that are unrepeatable, but all the time come in his whole life, he had great fun and made other people have fun too. just watching

he was a gentleman, honourable, knowledgeable and funny. not many presenters can reach his high standards. a sad loss to the world. kal has also been in touch on twitter. and all morning we've been talking about bill's brave decision to share his cancer diagnosis. he was an intensely private man but he knew it was important. that impact he had, such a brave decision for a man who was very private. he didn't parade is private life for other people and then it took that decision to say i will do this thing and put it out there to help other people. we will hear more of those stories throughout the

programme this morning because that really matters. here's matt with a look at this morning's weather. good morning. good morning, it's going to be a state of change as far as the weather is concerned over the next few days. some of you will see a huge amount of rain but some of you not at all. only a few showers today dotted around. many places staying dry and where you have got the sunshine it will feel quite one. here's where the showers are at the moment, south—east england drifting northwards into the midlands, on the borders of wales, one or two as well very close to aberdeenshire but more significant rain to the west of scotland which will develop further through the day. wet in eastern northern ireland as well and increasing chances of showers through wales and the south—west into the afternoon but many parts of scotland, england and a good part of wales as well will stay predominantly dry through the day and pretty warm. 26— 27. heaviest

will be across parts of wales and north—west england. a good part of central and eastern scotland stay dry but there's more persistent rain to the west of scotland and across scotland, northern ireland, more breeze developing today than we've seen lately and the wind will develop even more this weekend. in tonight, we will see rain become more extensive across western areas, eastern areas staying dry and with the wind coming in from the south east, a mild night tonight. as we go through the weekend, with low pressure dominating on the scene, quite a bit of rain around through western areas of times to windy conditions. the further east you are the less in the way of rain. i'll have all the details in half an hour. ., ., ~' have all the details in half an hour. ., ., ., ., ,, have all the details in half an hour. ., ., ., ., the search is continuing for the gunman in the fatal shooting of nine—year—old olivia pratt—korbel, as police release cctv footage of the shooter fleeing the scene. it's also been revealed that two guns were used in the attack which took place in the dovecot area of liverpool two weeks ago. jon donnison reports. in liverpool, tributes continue

to be [aid for olivia pratt korbel. it's 11 days since the nine—year—old was shot dead in the family home. and this is the man who police say killed her using two guns, and pictured on cctv as he fled the scene. we know this man is climbing through gardens and through people's back yards in order to avoid being identified, as well as using the roads, as you can see. now i know that there will be people shielding him and helping this man avoid being found by the police. if you are found doing this, then we will do everything legitimately possible to bring you to justice. detectives have also released footage of this man who was nearby on the night of the shooting and who they say might have important information. police have been continuing to stand guard outside the house where olivia died. the investigation is said to have made significant progress, but the killer, who police have

described as toxic, is still at large. john donnison, bbc news. the conservative party leadership race has entered its final hours. party members have until five o'clock today to vote for who they want to be their leader and the next prime minister. liz truss and rishi sunak will have to wait until monday for the result. our political correspondent, helen catt, joins us now from westminster. good morning. the hustings are over, these parades of their ideas, so how's it looking? 12 these parades of their ideas, so how's it looking?— these parades of their ideas, so how's it looking? 12 hustings we have had over _ how's it looking? 12 hustings we have had over the _ how's it looking? 12 hustings we have had over the last _ how's it looking? 12 hustings we have had over the last few - how's it looking? 12 hustings we l have had over the last few weeks since july have had over the last few weeks sincejuly when have had over the last few weeks since july when you have had over the last few weeks sincejuly when you remember those contests started with mp5 whittling it down to the final two candidates but since then, the final two, rishi sunak and liz truss, have been battling it out to get votes from the members. as you said, that closes this afternoon at 5pm. they will be counted on the winner will be announced on monday. since it's

been put out the membership, there's been put out the membership, there's been a series of polls and they have suggested liz truss has consistently been quite some way in front and when you talk to people on team rishi sunak he will say he's gone down well at the hustings but is widely expected to be liz truss who is going to win on monday. the announcement comes at lunchtime on monday. they won't have long to get used to the idea, though, because on tuesday, the winner will be appointed prime minister after boris johnson has formally resigned and they will be thrown straight into that whole process of appointing ministers, setting up the government, as well as against the backdrop of that real pressure of needing to move very quickly to do something to help households and small businesses with those energy bills. ., ~ , ., , small businesses with those energy bills. ., ~ , . a team of united nations inspectors has carried out a long—awaited visit to the russian—controlled zaporizhzhia nuclear power plant in southern ukraine. our correspondent hugo bachega is in kyiv. there's been a lot of concern about

the russians, so it gives us a sense of how challenging it's been for this mission. the head of the international atomic energy agency who is leading this mission said yesterday that the team managed to visit key locations in this facility. they had gathered a lot of information but there were still a lot of work to be done._ information but there were still a lot of work to be done. hugo, thank ou. good morning. what's going sport? everyone is feeling the pinch but not in the premier league. it was a transfer window which closed late last night. £1.9 billion across the summer. put that in context for us. premier league? half a billion more, record. they've been spending big in the premier league for the last few months. at 33% increase. yes, you got to stay in the premier league, that's what it's all about.

chelsea spent over 270 million, that's another record, their final signing was only confirmed after midnight, pierre—emerick aubameyang is back in the premier league after signing for chelsea. remember him? it's just six months since he left arsenal to barcelona on a free transfer. but with financial issues affecting the catalan side, he's been allowed to leave. the 33—year—old gabon striker, who's left the gunners under a cloud earlier this year, says he has some unfinished business. liverpool were another of the 1a premier league club that made deadline day signings. they've brought in arthur melo on loan from juventus. he won't be available for saturday's merseyside derby but the brazilian will provide extra cover in midfield, where they've had a number of injuries. the biggest deal to go through yesterday was for another brazilian. this had been in the pipeline for a few days but antony has put pen to paper on his move to manchester united from ajax for 82 million pounds.

the 22—year—old winger is reunited with his old manager erik ten hag. it was good day all round for united because they also got another win under their belt in the premier league. they beat leicester city 1—0 at the king power stadium. that's three wins in a row now for them but the foxes are still rooted to the bottom of the tablejoe lynskey reports. as the total spend went up and up, there was also a match to play. manchester united's new look side had mixed results and mixed reviews. cristiano ronaldo's set to stay. now from the bench again, he watched them face leicester. united chased a third win in a row and looked to the man who launched their season. just over a week ago, sancho scored against liverpool. since then, united have been through it. it's the kind of recovery leicester are desperate for. they've not won all season, bottom of the league.

it tookjames madison's second—half free kick to get to david de gea. united still have an alto as an option. he's still capable of creating, but this time they didn't need a second. leicester's best chance fell to their full—back. it's the kind of luck they are getting. but the home fans have little sympathy. leicester have just one point from five games, and modern football moves quickly. no day says that like the deadline. for the first time in the open era, there are four british men in the third round of the us open, dan evans and cameron norriejoining andy murray and jack draper in the last 32 in new york norrie is the british number one and the world number seven and although he wasn't at his best but managed to grind his way to a straight sets victory against portugal'sjoao sousa. norrie will play twenty—eighth seed holger rune next.

dan evans, who's seeded 20th in new york beat australia's james duckworth in four sets to set up a meeting with fifteenth seed marin cilic. and in the last few hours, rafa nadal came from a set down to beat the italian fabio fognini. richard gasquet awaits in the third round. nadal is chasing his third grand slam title of the year. serena williams has been lighting up the singles draw, but her run in the doubles was shortlived with sister venus. they were playing together for the first time in 4 years and lost in straight sets to the czech pair lucie hradecka and linda noskova. the williams have won 1a grand slam doubles titles together. serena, who is expected to retire to retire after the tournament, is back in singles action later tonight. and so is andy murray, so plenty of

tennis. exciting. the tennis is so late. not andy murray, his first up on arthur ashe, so it's going to be tea time our time. brilliant, thank you for that. time now to get the news, travel and weather where you are. good morning from bbc london, i'm thomas magill. a london—based children's charity says it's seen a spike in demand for its services as a result of the rising cost of living. the kids network, which offers mentoring to youngsters, says it's now helping 600 families compared to just 30 when it started in 2018. it says rising energy bills and food prices are having a negative impact on people's mental health, and it expects demand to continue to rise. 75% of the children that we work with don't have access to any other services. so families are often working really, really hard to make ends meet, and it's really affecting parents' and families' mental health.

caregivers are really struggling with how to square this circle. well, sticking with the rising cost of living — one london estate agent has reported private rentals in the capital will continue to increase next year. hamptons found the supply of homes available to rent has declined and this trend could also continue. and on this point — if you're renting in london, we'd like to hear your experience of what that's like and how the market has changed in recent months. you can get in touch with us by emailing hellobbclondon@bbc. co. uk. officers are appealing for witnesses after a homophobic attack in east london which left a man needing stitches on his face. they'd like to speak to this man after a 20—year—old man was hit by a glass inside a bar on the grove in newham on the 19th august. he was hit by a glass on the chin after being verbally abused with homophobic comments.

let's have a look at how the tube is moving this morning. the metropolitan and 0verground are both part suspended. now the weather with elizabeth rizzini. hello there. good morning. once again there will be some showers rattling around across the capital today. it's going to be feeling a bit warmer than it was yesterday too. now certainly it's a mild start in the morning. temperatures in the mid teens in celsius. watch out for those showers through the morning. some of them could be heavy and even thundery in nature. don't take the positions on the map too literally because they could pop up just about anywhere. there will be some areas of cloud, but also some brighter spells emerging, particularly as we head through the afternoon. a bit of sunshine. and in the best of the sunshine, temperatures could lift as high as perhaps 26 or even 27 celsius. there's a south easterly breeze and that's just dragging that warmer air our way, so a little warmer than it was yesterday. overnight tonight, again, a few showers around for a time but they should gradually fade away. we see the wind change to more

of a south—westerly too. that sets the scene for the weekend. it's going to be quite unsettled a lot further west than us. we could see a few showers around on saturday morning potentially, but it does look like it's going to be dry for most of the day and there'll even be some sunshine around, as well. temperatures a little lower because of the now south—westerly wind. turning a bit breezier on sunday. watch out for some more showers sunday evening. i will be back in an hour but for now, back to naga and charlie. hello, this is breakfast with charlie stayt and naga munchetty. we are spending some time on the programme saying are very fond farewell to bill turnbull, really this is a celebration amongst many other things, of his career and his

time on this sofa, which is 15 years. but we are also looking at things he was passionate about. bill was a long—time wycombe wanderers fan — he supported them for years and even did a spot of match commentary for his beloved team. mike is at the club's ground, adams park, for us this morning. it isa it is a very impressive ground, and it is a very impressive ground, and i saw earlier some of the staff, some the archive you dug up. bill spent a lot of time there, behind—the—scenes, motivating people. he really did have a link with that place and those people. yes, absolutely. first and foremost he was a fan, but over the years and over the decades, he became so much more than that. we had a real impact, as we are going to discover in the next few minutes, a real impact on the directors, the players and the manager. he became such good friends with them. in infants, even going to team talks on occasion as he celebrated ifigure

going to team talks on occasion as he celebrated i figure was 15 years at the time being a fan. but it all started, bizarrely he systems of, being a glory hunter. he was living locally and wycombe wanderers got to the semifinals of the fa cup and his love affair with the club started. down here come pitch side, you can appreciate why he fell in love with this unique club. right in the heart of the chilterns. some amazing scenery behind. but it wasn't about the scenery for bill, it was about the scenery for bill, it was about the football. i was here with him in 2009 for a leeds game, i sat alongside him in the commentary box, saturday afternoon, we had some time away from the red server as it was a special occasion. it was an honour to witness his commentary skills. for once he could be passionate and unbiased, giving his own opinions on what he thought of the referee! will see a bit about that now. must enjoy some of his highlights over the last two decades. —— matt enjoy.

this is where the real game is. you haven't got any of your fancy dan millionaires. wycombe till i die! this is where it is. bill's home from home, adams park, the ground of wycombe wanderers. his family became fans when they lived near here over 20 years ago, and his bond with the club grew stronger despite moving away to salford and eventually suffolk. that, for me, is a yellow card. he became the voice of wycombe, co—commentating for the club's website, neverafraid to show his range of emotions... oh! whoa! and it wasn't far off. ..and having a massive impact on those working alongside him. he just attracted warmth and people would come up to him and just ask how he is and get a photo and he's going to be so sorely missed here. but he's left a real legacy and particularly in my career and those around me will be forever grateful for bill turnbull. over the years, bill became close to the players and manager, gareth ainsworth, who we last spoke with just last month,

and he was at the training ground when he heard the devastating news. you know, terrible. we say unexpected, and it was because he was such a fighter and such a great character. we all knew, obviously, bill was carrying the prostate cancer and he was fighting it unbelievably. and so with that, you all thought he's going to be around forever, bill. so, yeah, devastated. and probably the same feelings as everyone — wish i had called him the day before, wish i'd have spoke to him more, but you know, we have had some brilliant times with him here at wycombe. bill's influence here, his connection with the fans, the staff, the management, the players continued right throughout his illness into this season. he attended the play—off final at wembley in may, and he was a guest of the former chairman at the last home game he was able to make. so at the end of the game, i think one of those very special moments where gareth was walking around with the players and gareth saw him and and they came up, and you know, it's a pretty tough climb up to the boxes in terms of getting through.

they went through the crowd and they came up. and again, what a special moment on that day, both for bill, but also for the players and the people that have been in the club for a long time, to be able to just show that warmth back to bill and... oh, my god, yeah, not a dry eye in the house. really important thing about this game is... bill was such an integral part of this club that at one point, he was even allowed to give the pre—match team talk in the dressing room. what other broadcasters can claim that? at the end of the game you've got to have more goals than they have. all right? what are we going to do, then? win! win! one of the players in the dressing room that day was former captain matt bloomfield, who now coaches and who has also now moved to suffolk. out in the suffolk countryside, and i'm in felixstowe, we're about 45 minutes away. and he welcomed my wife and my two girls, we went round for lunch a couple of times, spent the day with him and his wife, and just lovely people and made us feel so welcome. so at home. spoilt my girls and just a real nice man. i called him about three weeks ago

just to sort of catch up on the start of the season, and he was really pleased with how we'd started. we beat burton and he was really chuffed about that. there it is. and wycombe wanderers have secured the three points. for two decades, then, bill has been a fixture on match day at adams park, and his legacy will live on here. he'll always be part of his adopted wycombe family. let's stop to the former captain, now coach, matt bloomfield. thanks for your time. when you first, when did you first became aware of bill and its impact on the cup and how did he get so close to the players? my did he get so close to the players? my quite unusual for broadcaster. i my quite unusual for broadcaster. i suppose the first interaction we had was in _ suppose the first interaction we had was in 2008 when i did my acl on my knee, _ was in 2008 when i did my acl on my knee. when— was in 2008 when i did my acl on my knee. when i— was in 2008 when i did my acl on my knee, when i was injured i did some commentary— knee, when i was injured i did some commentary with bill, that was when we first— commentary with bill, that was when we first had _ commentary with bill, that was when we first had a bit of contact. he made _ we first had a bit of contact. he made me — we first had a bit of contact. he made me feel so comfortable, his obvious—

out into the countryside summer, we were stood outside and his words were, could we get this damn thing over and done with? i have to get on! ijust remember this bellowing and i'm going, does he even know who i am? does he know what i've given up i am? does he know what i've given up to be here? but that was the magic that was between us, because i got to know who he was about 30 seconds later. he got to know who i was and we went down the most incredible pathway. my stud muffin? i don't know where working from! he absolutely loved it. but you know, that show, what's magical about strictly s you get to the real people, and as you guys know, time and time again, i got to see a side

of the gentleman, i remember we were stood in the chacha chapter one point and he was relating it to a moment when he was down behind a tank, and i would look at him with the utmost admiration, the knowledge that this man has, the strength of this man has, the way he could laugh at anything, the way he could... he wasn'tjust coming on the show to have a bit of fun, he really wanted to dance. ijust remember him saying to dance. ijust remember him saying to me, where does this dance come from and what is it about and... just so many good memories and i know in the mornings it was very new for me to come on bbc breakfast, because we started talking about top

lights and contra checks and he's going, the public don't have a clue what you're talking about! we need you to be explaining a little bit so you to be explaining a little bit so you can come and sit on the coach. sometimes he wasn't there but i knew that he would ring me afterwards going, i have watched it back, you need to set up a little bit connect with good knowledge to people, you know. that was the magic of him. one word that he taught me that i will never forget, i used to say authoritative and he taught me it was authoritative. and i've never been able to say that word since. without getting a flash from him. which has been just without getting a flash from him. which has beenjust a very without getting a flash from him. which has been just a very magical. i did want to share, i know time is short, but one of my last text

well, they did think of asking carol to be the next doctor who, but she says she's too busy going to lovely places like highgrove. morning. good morning. i think i could be his mum. and he's a time lord, that's saying something, billy. i remember one time i was in the blue peter garden and i was doing an experiment with measuring jugs. and he threw to me with he always called me kirky and he said, "kirky, are you going to do your experiments again in the programme?" and i said, "yes, i'll have myjugs out in 15 minutes." and his face was going bright red from trying not to laugh. and then he just erupted. and that was billy. he was fun. carol's wide awake this morning so she can get my name right this time round. good morning, charlie. and billy and louise. joking. and just adored working with him. when i saw he was on in the morning, my day was already complete before we'd even started. moving across scotland... whoops, my necklace has just falling off! how many years?

it never happened. it never happened in how many years? you're struggling a bit. yes. i could just feel it coming off and slipping further and further sideways. and i learned scripts from him as well. and he was a wonderful, loyal, kind friend. and i'm going to miss him terribly. what a loss. what an absolute loss. so have a fabulous day whatever you're doing. since we safely reached the end of the programme, you can have your mistletoe back. does that mean i can get in there? happy christmas, billy! he grimaced but i know he loved it really. also that thing of embracing things when they go wrong, yes, it's a good thing. let's turn our attention away for a moment. we will talk about the energy crisis now. the big switch on for blackpool illuminations is tonight. but of course lots of things we've been talking about is how to the lights

keep on so hannah has taken a look at the moment and blackpool tower. good morning. yes, this is one of the illuminations _ good morning. yes, this is one of the illuminations which _ good morning. yes, this is one of the illuminations which has - good morning. yes, this is one of the illuminations which has been | the illuminations which has been switched on. we havejust counted, there's more than 80 light bulbs on this installation unknown. we are told the illuminations are powered by renewable electricity which comes from renewable resources. that's of course very topical at a time when rising gas prices are causing the cost of living crisis. the illuminations are a tradition that's been going since 1879, stretching for six miles up and down this prom, attracting millions of visitors every year trying to bring in business and keep the town cheerful through the winter so when there was a chance to go earlier this week to catch a glimpse of what this years illuminations are going to be like, i went along and asked people how they are feeling the winter ahead. an evening fuelled by pedal power, bringing the summer holidays to an end.

the illuminations providing free fun for thousands of families as energy bills start to ramp up. i mean, we've already spoke to the children about how christmas might be different. you know, they might not get the big presents they are used to and we might do little things. it is a worrying time. you know, you think about, we've got pets at home, we have a chameleon that has its tank on 24/7. you know, you think even things like that, you're thinking, oh my goodness, that's more pennies going down the pan! things that you thought would never be an issue? yeah, yeah. things you'd never have to worry about. and even as they take in the spectacle of the lights, many here fear this winter will bring much darker times. i have a meter and it used to say, you know, i put £10 on, it was going to say i had six days, and now it's down to 4.2, and each week it's getting less and less that my money buys, or your electric is cut off and there's nothing you can do about it. i think it's a terrifying winter ahead for everybody. and this six—mile stretch of promenade is no longer paved with gold say some businesses, who have already noticed people have less cash to spend.

how important are the illuminations? they're very important. these are what we wait for, the illuminations, i especially the weekends, especially the fireworks. i they really do make - a difference to our season. among the rush of visitors, many who want the government to set out to clearer path to bring down energy bills. i think it's a bit ridiculous, to be honest. i think, in other countries, they have asked the energy companies to absorb it themselves. the energy companies seem to make a lot of money and we are struggling? yeah, it's not fair. what do you think of them going up? it's disgusting. absolutely disgusting. we are happy in terms of it's not going to make a massive difference to our life, but it is ridiculous. but for this night, at least, the illuminations are providing some relief. brightening up a town where some fear they will struggle to keep the lights on at home.

headlines coming up. good morning and welcome to breakfast with charlie stayt and naga munchetty. celebrating the life and legacy of our friend and colleague, bill turnbull after his death at the age of 66. hello. this is breakfast with sian williams and bill turnbull. bill became one of the nation's most loved broadcasters, presenting breakfast for 15 years — we'll speak to his former sofa partners later on the show. we'll hear how bill's prostate

cancer campaigning saved lives and encouraged thousands of men to come forward for testing. we'll hear about his real passions — his football team wycombe wanderers. i'm here at their ground. it became over the last two decades like a second home from home for bill where he became such good friends with the fans, players and manager. we will speak to him at 8:30. . . manager. we will speak to him at 8:30. ., , , ., 8:30. the weather will still be warm and sunny for— 8:30. the weather will still be warm and sunny for you _ 8:30. the weather will still be warm and sunny for you this _ 8:30. the weather will still be warm and sunny for you this weekend - 8:30. the weather will still be warm and sunny for you this weekend but| 8:30. the weather will still be warm | and sunny for you this weekend but a greater— and sunny for you this weekend but a greater chance of heavy and thundery rain around. — greater chance of heavy and thundery rain around, especially in the west. iwill— rain around, especially in the west. i will have _ rain around, especially in the west. i will have all the details right here — i will have all the details right here on— i will have all the details right here on breakfast. it's friday 2nd september. tributes have been coming in for our friend and colleague, bill turnbull, who has died at the age of 66. bill presented here on breakfast for 15 years. it was in 2017 when he revealed he'd been diagnosed with advanced prostate cancer, and he went on to encourage other men to get themselves checked out. bill is being remembered by those who knew him as a "wonderful friend", "great fun" and "an incredible talent".

graham satchell has this report. oh, no, time. fill, fill, fill, fill, fill! bill turnbull and sian williams with less than a minute to go before the start of another programme. thank you. 15? bill checking everything to make sure it's perfect. he was just great to work with. you don't get up at 3.30 in the morning for 11 years to sit next to somebody you don't like and we got on really, really well. this is breakfast with sian williams and bill turnbull. it felt like a family on set and the breakfast viewers felt like family to us. good morning, this is breakfast with louise minchin... - over the years, bill had 14 so—called tv wives, all of them saying the same thing. first that bill was funny, always funny. he had a really mischievous sense of humour. _ it's a sign of you importance you have so many people in your studio. i don't know what that word meant!

you need bill as part of your entourage. not saying words like that, i don't. i'll be your vocabularist. some little quirk would happen and you'd see bill start to laugh. that's another one. two for two. vocabularist? yeah. what is that? i've never heard of that in the states. | walking thesaurus. oh my goodness, he's on fire. and you knew that as soon as bill started to laugh, you were not going to be able to hold it together. you just put ist on- the back of everything. you've cracked the secret. i've got nothing. i thought i had something. you are the best guestist we've had. and some of my fondest moments of working with bill were just giggling uncontrollably. he was a brilliant, talented, insightful, sharp—eyedjournalist, but at the heart of him was this really amusing funny person that i absolutely adored working with. we are meant to be hearing the sound

of mosquitoes but they decided to stay in bed this morning. the day i let the mosquitoes out, for example, what were we doing even having them on the sofa? he was bitten by the mosquitoes. somebody has interviewed the prime minister, letting himself be bitten live on national television by mosquitoes. he enjoyed the versatility of being able to do everything you threw at him. he loved dressing up for children in need. he loved doing strictly. all the spangles and the fake tan, we used to joke about it, but he just loved that. # golden brown, texture like sun... we had a lot of laughs, a lot of laughs, and i am really going to miss that. george bush is walking an environmental tightrope. bill had a long career as a foreign

correspondent and by the time he came to breakfast tv he was hugely experienced and extremely rigorous. he expected high standards from everyone. he was an absolute stickler for accuracy, both in grammar and in spelling, as well, and i think he called it grammar hammer. it's to try to, not - to try and, for example. the banned list are legendary, iconic, unique, for example. don't use the word iconic connected to anything. it's a cliche. he mentored everybody on the programme. - he was like the father of bbc breakfast. - i'm definitely a betterjournalist because i sat next to him with that rigour for hours and hours. he taught me everything. he taught so many of us everything about journalism and about television. and about being a decent person in this industry. he was kind and compassionate and wise. and a great friend. and i loved every minute

of being with him and we are really going to miss him. when bill was diagnosed with prostate cancer in 2018, it was a devastating blow. he was an intensely private man but spoke out publicly, urging other men to get themselves checked. i don't think there are many people in this world who can change lives, save lives by what they say, and he did that and i think that's an incredible legacy and i know there will be people who will be waking up tomorrow morning safe and well because of him and that's an incredibly generous thing to have done. come on. saving other men's lives was a remarkable final act for a good man who lived an extraordinary life. i will remember 30 years of friendship. and support. and laughter. what you saw on the telly was how he was. kind, gentle, funny, clever. just a lovely bloke, really.

and i will miss him. we're joined now by former breakfast presenter, sian williams, who shared this sofa with bill for 11 years. a long time. bill and i were on weekends, friday, saturday and sunday to start with. that was when it was on the bbc news channel. at the weekends. then it went to bbc two and then bbc one. then we were both made presenters. on the big red sofa. it was for a long time, 11 years. we had gone back, 30 years we first met one another 30 years ago, i was a radio 4 producer and i was sent out to arkansas in the united states to cover the presidential campaign of bill clinton. and he was

washington correspondent, so we were put together for the first time. neither of us knew one another. the very first evening, we were sitting having dinner in a restaurant and i just collapsed for some reason, may be jet—lagged just collapsed for some reason, may bejet—lagged or just collapsed for some reason, may be jet—lagged or whatever, just collapsed for some reason, may bejet—lagged or whatever, so the first night i spent with bill turnbull but doesn't sound right! it was in er, in an emergency room. did he plan to keep —— but did he promise to keep it a secret? he said he would keep _ promise to keep it a secret? he said he would keep it _ promise to keep it a secret? he said he would keep it secret _ promise to keep it a secret? he said he would keep it secret for - promise to keep it a secret? he said he would keep it secret for 25 - promise to keep it a secret? he said he would keep it secret for 25 years| he would keep it secret for 25 years and he did. and we acclimate to the uk and he said, it'll be great to work together again, but do not put another stunt like that! i said, keep it a secret, and he did. i guess that was him, he was a very loyal friend guess that was him, he was a very loyalfriend and a guess that was him, he was a very loyal friend and a very supportive friend. when i was diagnosed with breast cancer he was one of the first to reach out and say he was

thinking of me and he connected with me in that way and when he was diagnosed with prostate cancer, we did an interview together for the radio times where he talked really openly about having things going on with his body, with his bones thinking and not quite knowing what was going on, and wishing that he had gone to see the doctor sooner. and being that honest about his cancer, itjust meant so many people got themselves checked who would not ordinarily. amazing. iterate got themselves checked who would not ordinarily. amazing.— ordinarily. amazing. we have 'ust had an ordinarily. amazing. we have 'ust nedene-menfi ordinarily. amazing. we have 'ust had an e-mail saying, i ordinarily. amazing. we have 'ust had an e-mail saying, i've h ordinarily. amazing. we havejust had an e-mail saying, i've seen i ordinarily. amazing. we havejust i had an e-mail saying, i've seen the had an e—mail saying, i've seen the doctor today at 11 o'clock, this gentleman has just e—mailed doctor today at 11 o'clock, this gentleman hasjust e—mailed in. i gentleman hasjust e—mailed in. i don't think it was a where and when we did that interview he was think i'm not sure about this, he was a private man, but what he did changed lives, saved lives, and i think daoust and we have heard on this programme, it is such a lovely

tribute and we are all thinking of his wife and kids this morning, i don't know whether they are watching. it must be a very tough time. but from everybody who loved bill, the viewers and his breakfast family and his friends, we are thinking of you. it's such a difficult time for them. we all knew it was coming, and bill and difficult time for them. we all knew it was coming, and billand i difficult time for them. we all knew it was coming, and bill and i texted a few weeks ago, but somehow even if you know it's coming, you're not prepared. it's like he is still here, it's like... i can't quite believe that not here. as they say, it is like he has popped into another room. he hasn't really gone. it's funny you say that because a lot of people who are in our ears this morning, the directors, the people who work in the show are people who work in the show are people who work in the show are people who welcomed him as well, and

what you're saying about his family are spot on and what we're trying to do this morning very much as to look at all parts of his life. can ijust ask, are talking about how you kept in touch with him until very recently, i was saying earlier, i have had. link me in the street and asking me how he was doing. he was so involved in people's lives, just from being here. people wanted to know and i didn't know, especially most recently, how things work. you did have contact with him very recently, didn't you? but did have contact with him very recently, didn't you?— did have contact with him very recently, didn't you? but you know what, he recently, didn't you? but you know what. he was _ recently, didn't you? but you know what, he was unfailingly _ recently, didn't you? but you know what, he was unfailingly positive i what, he was unfailingly positive the whole way through. every time he talked about how he was, and typical of the man, he contacted me to offer condolences on the recent death of my father, and i said, how are youquiz—macro and that's when he was speaking about having another round of chemotherapy and he was hoping to go back to classic fm because he was

great on that show and i know that many listeners miss him hugely there. there was always this going for the next thing, going for the next thing. he kept on optimism and a hope around him which was inspiring. there was an editor of this programme called allison ford, who died of cancer and i remember her saying to us, i don't want to die dying. and he said, that's exactly what he thought. we didn't want to die dying, he wanted to celebrate life, he wanted to make the most of every little last bit of it, and put all thejoy the most of every little last bit of it, and put all the joy and fun and optimism and hope and laughter that we all knew of bill, he wanted to put that into every moment of his life. devoted to his family, devoted

to wycombe wanderers. devoted to his bees. he convinced me to get the dog. he had a very full life, but she was passionate about, and it was great to see that enthusiasm and that love for life, even in the most difficult of times, i think. he that love for life, even in the most difficult of times, i think.— difficult of times, i think. he was an extraordinary _ difficult of times, i think. he was an extraordinary man. _ difficult of times, i think. he was i an extraordinary man. extraordinary man, extraordinary _ an extraordinary man. extraordinary man, extraordinary legacy. - an extraordinary man. extraordinary man, extraordinary legacy. he - an extraordinary man. extraordinary| man, extraordinary legacy. he would be loving all this, i tell you! the . reat be loving all this, i tell you! the great thing _ be loving all this, i tell you! the great thing about bill, i think, and we all try to do it, it's the audience that matters. he never, everforgot audience that matters. he never, ever forgot that the audience is king. we serve the audience, we are fitted —— facilitators of stories. we are custodians. and actually, that was the thing about him, he was

never starry, and what we have this morning is everybody saying he —— you could walk up to him and he was like a friend, because he was the person you saw on the sofa, he was the person that he was, very approachable and warm, he was a billing journalist, never forget that, absolutely brilliant journalist, and very warm and a commitment and loyalty to the viewers. you neverfelt that commitment and loyalty to the viewers. you never felt that he felt he was bigger than the programme, he was interested in what the viewers had to say even when sometimes there were quite harsh, which as you know... but, you know, he was very respectful, i guess, and he knew what irresponsibility it was to sit here in the morning and to wake up with people, i guess. i here in the morning and to wake up with people, i guess.— here in the morning and to wake up with people, i guess. i have heard a few people — with people, i guess. i have heard a few people mentioning _ with people, i guess. i have heard a few people mentioning it, _ with people, i guess. i have heard a few people mentioning it, that - few people mentioning it, that thing about town. the ability to sit down early in the morning, other people

do it elsewhere and itjust get it right. he had the ability to do it almost always committed get it right and a lot of us have been there and got it wrong, you know what you sell, you have to readjust. he had a knack and a skill of doing that. used to call it handbrake turn, or they face fall. when you are talking about something, because the thing about something, because the thing about breakfast is that we cover everything, and the sad and happy and the funny, and the serious. it's all together in more than three hours. but what that means is, you've got to navigate what a lot of difficult turns. and sometimes it felt like could be a bit of a screeching turn over their honey go from a serious stony —— mystery to a funny story. he used to collect the face fall. when you are talking about a funny story and then he realised the next story coming up is not so funny, you've got to turn your face down a little bit. but

navigating those, you are right, navigating those, you are right, navigating those, you are right, navigating those turns are never easy. but i think that's what life is. its complex and difficult and lots of stuff held together, and i think he was able to bring that, he was able to hold it together. flan was able to hold it together. can ou was able to hold it together. can you explain _ was able to hold it together. can you explain this? i will have all the details right here on breakfast. you do end up having a thing with your on—air presenter partner. it seems ludicrous. ok, i had been told somewhere that the great andrew marr, if he's watching his probably saying i never used to do that, used to just do that before he went on air, just to get himself ready. and i said i think it could work for us,

billy. so we tried it and we said, it went like that, and then every time we came on air, we would hear the 15 countdown from the gallery, from the director upstairs, and you hear 15 and then would have a little shake like that together and then re—wear off, you know, and it was eight o'clock coffee. we had our little routines. we had our little routines. he always bought me chocolate for my birthday and i always bought him a tie for his. phrases, i don't know, if we were interviewing somebody, for example, and one of us had run out of things to say, because the interview had extended a little too long, the key phrase was the other one saying, what's next for you ? phrase was the other one saying, what's next for you? the generic question. and that was the key for somebody else to come in and ask another one to help the other out and i think the key about a team is

that you know each other�*s strengths and weaknesses and you are there for one another and we had each other�*s backs, and it was never ever a competitive relationship. i mean, breakfast is a team of people, very collaborative, and it only works if it is that, and i felt like collaborative, and it only works if it is that, and ifelt like he collaborative, and it only works if it is that, and i felt like he was a great person to be part of a team with. ijust loved it.— with. i 'ust loved it. what is next for with. ijust loved it. what is next for ou? with. ijust loved it. what is next for you? have — with. ijust loved it. what is next for you? have you _ with. ijust loved it. what is next for you? have you run _ with. ijust loved it. what is next for you? have you run out - with. ijust loved it. what is next for you? have you run out of - with. ijust loved it. what is next i for you? have you run out of things to sa ? for you? have you run out of things to say? it's — for you? have you run out of things to say? it's the _ for you? have you run out of things to say? it's the director, _ for you? have you run out of things to say? it's the director, tim. - for you? have you run out of things to say? it's the director, tim. youl to say? it's the director, tim. you know him- — to say? it's the director, tim. you know him- he _ to say? it's the director, tim. you know him. he is _ to say? it's the director, tim. you know him. he is harsh. _ to say? it's the director, tim. you know him. he is harsh. we - to say? it's the director, tim. you know him. he is harsh. we would| to say? it's the director, tim. you - know him. he is harsh. we would like to carry on — know him. he is harsh. we would like to carry on talking _ know him. he is harsh. we would like to carry on talking but _ know him. he is harsh. we would like to carry on talking but he's _ know him. he is harsh. we would like to carry on talking but he's telling - to carry on talking but he's telling us. . ~' to carry on talking but he's telling us. . ~ , ., to carry on talking but he's telling us. ., ~' i., to carry on talking but he's telling us. ., ~ . to carry on talking but he's telling us. thank you so much for inviting me back and _ us. thank you so much for inviting me back and to _ us. thank you so much for inviting me back and to pay _ us. thank you so much for inviting me back and to pay tribute - us. thank you so much for inviting me back and to pay tribute to - us. thank you so much for inviting me back and to pay tribute to a i us. thank you so much for inviting l me back and to pay tribute to a man who i know people will be waking up this morning and will be really sad, but if we can remember all the lovely things about him and the smiles he brought to people's faces, and the legacy he leaves as well, with people.

and my hips particularly, and they would come and go and i thought this is old age. finally, he went for a checkup. he said, "well, i'mjust going to give you a blood test, just a sort of mot, if you like, just to check a few things out". the next morning he called me and asked me to come in pretty quickly. and the doctor said, "it's fairly clear from this that you have advanced prostate cancer and that it has spread to the bone". i thought now i've got to deal with the future or having much less of a future than i thought i had. bill revealed his diagnosis in a celebrity edition of the great british bake off in aid of the charity stand up to cancer, explaining why you shouldn't delay getting symptoms checked out.

if i'd had a test a few years ago, we would have diagnosed it early and knocked it on the head earlier. my survival possibilities would be a lot better. his openness about his cancer had an immediate and significant effect. cancer charities say it will have saved many lives. bill has made a profound impact on raising awareness of prostate cancer. when he so openly and candidly talked about his diagnosis in 2018, the following year we saw an increase in 20% of referrals into the nhs and our own helpline in fact had 200% increase in people making calls. so he has worked with us to campaign tirelessly to make sure that men understand about their risk of prostate cancer and what they can do about it. he has literally helped save thousands of lives. the actor and writer stephen fry revealed his prostate cancer diagnosis around the same time. his was caught early.

the turnbull and fry effect led to many men getting their cancer diagnosed sooner. hello. hi, bill. hi. how are you? nice to meet you. carl skinner went for tests as a result of seeing bill on tv. his prostate cancer was caught before it was too late, and he responded well to treatment. carl and his daughter lisa met bill in person in 2018. i think we just feel hugely indebted to you. i don't think you should, but thank you. i appreciate it. thanks very much. it was just something i thought was the right thing to do at the time. it's very heartwarming when when people get in touch. and i think i have done at least one useful thing in my life. every year, around 52,000 men in the uk will be diagnosed with cancer of the prostate, or walnut—sized gland at the base of the bladder. more than three quarters

will survive at least a decade. but the trouble is too many men are being diagnosed once their cancer has spread. prostate cancer mainly affects men over 50. a family history of the disease is another risk factor, and there's a much higher incidence among black men. early prostate cancer doesn't usually have symptoms, but problems with peeing, needing to go more often, difficulty starting or stopping can be a sign. pain in the back or hips or blood in the urine or semen are other warning signs. there's no single test for prostate cancer. physical exams, scans and biopsies are all used. you may be offered a blood test. high levels of the protein psa can indicate cancer, but it's not always reliable. in 2019, i reported from university college hospital in london about a trial examining whether an mri scan and psa blood test could be used to diagnose those

prostate cancers which are growing aggressively and need urgent treatment, as opposed to those which may never cause problems. if successful, within five years, it could lead to a screening programme, a bit like those for breast and cervical cancer. bill turnbull�*s death will undoubtedly lead to another surge in men seeking answers for nagging symptoms which they may have put off getting checked for months or even years, and it will hopefully save many more lives. fergus walsh, bbc news. let's pick on some of those things. we're joined now by laura kerby from prostate cancer uk, as well as carl skinner and his daughter lisa. good morning. carl was diagnosed with prostate cancer after lisa saw bill talking about his own diagnosis here on breakfast.

so lovely to see this morning. you will appreciate this, carl. so lovely to see this morning. you willappreciate this, carl. even while we've been on air this morning, we were looking through twitter, people getting in touch, saying... this is an e—mail, rj w, they got in touch saying this morning is going for a prostate check at 11am. just because watching this, hearing the stories again, that's what happened with you, wasn't it? .,. , that's what happened with you, wasn't it? .. , that's what happened with you, wasn't it? , , , wasn't it? exactly, lisa picked up on it, watching _ wasn't it? exactly, lisa picked up on it, watching the _ wasn't it? exactly, lisa picked up on it, watching the programme, l wasn't it? exactly, lisa picked up - on it, watching the programme, build talking on the subject, and i was in the same situation.— talking on the subject, and i was in the same situation. sometimes these conversations — the same situation. sometimes these conversations are _ the same situation. sometimes these conversations are not _ the same situation. sometimes these conversations are not easy _ the same situation. sometimes these conversations are not easy which - the same situation. sometimes these conversations are not easy which is i conversations are not easy which is the point of talking about it now. there is a reluctance to talk about it so this is your dad you are talking to, you've seen bill, something is in your head, what happens next?— something is in your head, what happens next? something is in your head, what ha-nens next? ., ., _ happens next? yeah, i obviously saw the interview— happens next? yeah, i obviously saw the interview bill _ happens next? yeah, i obviously saw the interview bill gave _ happens next? yeah, i obviously saw the interview bill gave when - happens next? yeah, i obviously saw the interview bill gave when he - happens next? yeah, i obviously saw the interview bill gave when he came out with— the interview bill gave when he came out with his _ the interview bill gave when he came out with his diagnosis, so bravely, and the _ out with his diagnosis, so bravely, and the things he said kinda resonated with me because dad had

good morning from bbc london, i'm thomas magill. a london—based children's charity says it's seen a spike in demand for its services as a result of the rising cost of living. the kids network, which offers mentoring to youngsters, says it's now helping 600 families compared to just 30 when it started in 2018. it says rising energy bills and food prices are having a negative impact on people's mental health, and it expects demand to continue to rise. 75% of the children that we work with don't have access to any other services. so families are often working really, really hard to make ends meet, and it's really affecting parents' and families' mental health. caregivers are really struggling with how to square this circle. well, sticking with the rising cost of living — one london estate agent has reported the cost of privately rented properties in the capital will continue to increase next year.

hamptons found the supply of homes available to rent has declined and this trend could also continue. and on this point — if you're renting in london, we'd like to hear your experience of what that's like and how the market has changed in recent months. you can get in touch with us by emailing hellobbclondon@bbc. co. uk. officers are appealing for witnesses after a homophobic attack in east london which left a man needing stitches. they'd like to speak to this man in relation to the incident. it happened inside a bar on the grove in newham on the 19th august. the 20—year—old victim was hit on the chin by a glass after being verbally abused. lets have a look at how the tube is moving this morning. the 0verground is partly suspended. other than that, a good service. now the weather with elizabeth rizzini. hello there. good morning.

once again there will be some showers rattling around across the capital today. it's going to be feeling a bit warmer than it was yesterday too. now certainly it's a mild start in the morning. temperatures in the mid teens in celsius. watch out for those showers through the morning. some of them could be heavy and even thundery in nature. don't take the positions on the map too literally because they could pop up just about anywhere. there will be some areas of cloud, but also some brighter spells emerging, particularly as we head through the afternoon. a bit of sunshine. and in the best of the sunshine, temperatures could lift as high as perhaps 26 or even 27 celsius. there's a south—easterly breeze and that's just dragging that warmer air our way, so a little warmer than it was yesterday. overnight tonight, again, a few showers around for a time but they should gradually fade away. we see the wind change to more of a south—westerly too. that sets the scene for the weekend. it's going to be quite unsettled a lot further west than us. we could see a few showers around on saturday morning potentially, but it does look like it's going to be dry for most of the day and there'll even be some sunshine

around, as well. temperatures a little lower because of the now south—westerly wind. turning a bit breezier on sunday. watch out for some more showers sunday evening. i'll be back in half an hour — but for now, it's back to charlie and naga. hello. this is breakfast with charlie stayt and naga munchetty. the time is 8:35. bill's family has described him as bringing "warmth and humour into people's homes" and for 15 years he certainly took every opportunity to find the light amongst the dark here on breakfast. jayne mccubbin has gone back through the archives to bring us bill's best laugh out loud moments. just before the cameras went live, bill would steady himself, and then he was ready to wake up the nation with a smile.

wow, man. sound like you know your way around women. take it away with the weather. oh, that's the biggest laugh i know. good. okay. you are the world's biggest flirt, aren't you? ijust celebrated my 20th anniversary. don't spoil it. your wife enjoy it. when you get home. this is the route that bill took when he went through the studio doors onto the famous red sofa in the morning, past his own smiling face. you never knew exactly what he was going to walk into when he went through those doors in the morning. but we always knew that our morning news was in safe hands. funnily enough, it looks pretty dramatic, but it's not as bad as it was before.

what have you got to moan about, mate? it's lovely. it's cold, mate. 0h. oh, he's back. hold the programme. i'm having my cup of tea. order has been restored, has it? so you got to meet the great bill turnbull? we did, yeah. yeah. it was complete carnage. when we got the phone call, you know, would you like to come on to tv? would you like to bring your four—year—old son? it's like, ok. i was running around the sofas. well, we're trying to have a civilised chat. what a lovely person he was because he wouldn't have been as successful or as approachable or any of those things if he, you know, he wasjust a really nice guy. so happy with this angle. everything tie, hair. looking good. pink!

this was news with warmth and humour and heart. bill wasn't just a presenter. he was yourfriend. oh, absolutely. i think he was a friend to everyone. and he was incredibly smart, very funny. but he wore his intellect very lightly. so, professor, you seem like a pretty nice chap. i hope you are here. ready to rap? was able to sort of make anyone feel comfortable and talk to anyone about anything on your head. instead, nuff said? you can't wrap your wack and you got no flow. stop it, bill, please. you're embarrassing your co—host. oh, brilliant. everyone still trusted bill. i remember going around his house. we're in the kitchen and he goes, have you got a dog? _ and i say, i do not have a dog.

and he says, get a dog. and i say, i will not get a dog, bill. - and he said to me, a childhood for your kids is not _ a childhood without a dog. i don't want a dog. this is the fault of bill turnbull. just talking about uncle bill. i'm delighted to say we can now speak to susanna reid, who of course... good morning! this is where it all— course... good morning! this is where it all started _ course... good morning! this is where it all started at _ course... good morning! this is| where it all started at television centre _ where it all started at television centre on— where it all started at television centre on the bbc breakfast sofa. i was centre on the bbc breakfast sofa. wasjust centre on the bbc breakfast sofa. i wasjust thinking centre on the bbc breakfast sofa. i was just thinking exactly that. i know that as your home now we are broadcasting but must be thinking, many of the time when he would arrive there in the early hours of the morning and bill would be turning up and he would do a show together. what are your thoughts? well, you know what, that the music you had _
