surrounded by this rather big fence. but inside the enclosure they forage, they graze, they look for food. and in the next few months the enclosure is going to be massively expanded, leaving the bison to effectively live as wild animals inside. the role of the bison is to act as nature's bulldozer, trampling corridors through the forest and killing trees by eating their bark. in the clearings, light can come through, and there are spaces for other wildlife to thrive. they are, in effect, an animal that will coppice trees, will do all of that sort of work that we do manually with chainsaws or with brush cutters or whatever, they will do all of this naturally through their behaviour. where would you like to see this project go? in time, the greatest aspiration would be to drop the fences, leave the fencing alone and let

the bison move through so this baby bison could be just the beginning. jonah fisher, bbc news, in kent. time for a look at the weather. here's tomasz schafernaker. high. good afternoon. it is going to stay mild over the next few days but big downpours lurking on the horizon today and indeed the weekend is going to be quite changeable. certainly not a wash—out, we have some sunshine on the way but it will change. this is what the satellite picture looks like now. quite a complicated sort of pattern of clouds, you can see there are vortices, low—pressure swelling around the uk, and the air is crucially coming in from the south, from the southern climes so hence it feels so mild out there. as we go through the weekend you will see areas of low pressure sweeping across the uk bringing further outbreaks of rain through that very
1:32 pm
changeable autumnal picture. the temperatures today, 19 in london, more typical in the mid—teens but the average in london this time of year is closer to 1a degrees so we are well up there, and that really isn't going to change much over the next few days. let's look at the showers crossing the midlands into northern england, quite a few across northern ireland later on and quite cloudy across scotland but the showers are not especially heavy here right now. towards the end of the night what we will find is the weather is going to dry out across many parts of england and wales. and again the overnight temperatures, 1a in norwich, 12 in belfast, it is not mild just by day but particularly the nights are very mild indeed. tomorrow, the best of the weather or the sunniest of the weather england and where is, but we will see showers reaching south—western areas later in the afternoon. northern ireland and scotland tomorrow i think more cloudy and a chance of catching one or two showers as well. and then sunday it changes again and we see these weather fronts swelling around that bigotry of low pressure
1:33 pm
that i showed you early on the satellite picture. you can see clumps of rain sweeping across the uk during the course of sunday and again a good chance of catching one or two downpours. despite all of this still 18 in london and expected in glasgow, in edinburgh and not far off that in belfast also. the low pressure, rathera off that in belfast also. the low pressure, rather a large one across the atlantic, still with us into monday, so this pattern, this mild, changeable, showery pattern will continue into monday, again highs in the high teens particularly in the south—east and the across north—western areas of the uk. and then the outlook into next week shows that really varied pattern. again i was talking about this yesterday, lots of weather icons depicting all sorts of weather, mild both in the south and relatively mild in the north as well. tomasz schafernaker, thank you very much. and that's it from the news at one today. on bbc one we willjoin our news teens wherever you are. have a good weekend.

we've got the latest from the bbc sports centre now. ireland have reached the next stage of the t20 world cup, the super 12's after stunning the two time champions west indies. it was a winner—takes—all match in hobart, windies won the toss and batted first, but were restricted to 146 for 5. thanks to their opener paul stirling, who was unbeaten the winning runs, he made a5. they will now play in the same group
1:35 pm
as england, new zealand, australia, afghanistan and sri lanka. scotla nd scotland only reached 132 for six. zimbabwe started slowly,. they made it home with plenty to spare, a five wicket when there then. zimbabwe will play in the super 12 for the first time. ian barraclough has been sacked as manager of northern ireland after two years in charge, he succeeded michael o'neill, but he has won only four of their 22 competitive fixtures. he was given a two—year contract extension last september which was opposed to taking through the euro 2020 for qualifying campaign but he struggled to get the supporters outside as they narrowly avoided relegation to the fourth tier of the nation's league last
1:36 pm
month. stash euro 2020 for. steven gerrard was sacked by aston villa late last night, an hour or so after their 3—0 defeat at fulham he's the fourth premier league sacking of the season. he leaves villa just above the relegation zone on goals scored. he won just 13 of his a0 matches at villa afterjoining them from rangers last november. his former manager at liverpool, brendan rodgers, says gerrard should have been given more time. it seems a manager loses his job or is threatened with losing his job every day. stability and patience seems to be running out in football so i am really disappointed for him because i believe with time and patience, he could have got them where they wanted to be. manchester united manager erik ten hag has confirmed that cristiano ronaldo refused to come off the bench to play in wednesday's
1:37 pm
2—0 win over tottenham, instead choosing to leave the field before the end of the game. he's been left out of the squad to face chelsea on sunday. look, it is like, i am the manager, i am responsible for the top spot culture here and i have to set standards and failures and i have to control them. i think it is also for everyone else, i set a warning at the start of the season and then the next time it has to be consequence. tyson fury has been trying to generate interest further the fight against derek to zora. many fight fans have been left pretty underwhelmed by the prospect of a third meeting between the two but tyson fury who beat him in 2011 and

around. bit of a problem there would part of that recording from radio five live this morning. the essence of it you will gather because we are talking about politics and we will be live in westminster at tpm, and we will have all the very latest. we know that ben wallace has ruled himself out of running for the leadership, we rate to see who might roll themselves the contest, more from that from tpm. let's talk about ukraine bigger thinks russia doesn't take over of the ukrainian city earth kherson back in march, communications they have been heavily restricted, making it difficult for people to share their stories with the outside world. journalist and kherson resident dmytro bahnenko documented the start of the invasion and three months of life under russian occupation for bbc eye investigations. the bbc�*s dzhafer umerov has this special report.
1:42 pm
translation: armoured vehicles have gone by, i and about 50 soldiers. on march 1st, russian tanks roll in and take control of the ukrainian city of kherson. taking a big risk, journalist dmytro bahnenko films the start of the invasion from his window. he and his wife lidia try to distract their five—year—old daughter ksusha from the war outside. the family tries to stick to routines. translation: beetroot. potatoes. cabbage. tomato sauce. ksusha, take a spoon and put it here.

1:44 pm
translation: i don't want them to drop bombs on me. _ i saw a robot today. it was flying. it wanted to kill me. dmytro's brother—in—law is also threatened by russian forces who have taken over the luxury resort he manages. both families decide it's not safe to stay any longer. translation: i really don't want to leave, but the decision has been made. i have written down information about ksusha just in case. who her guardians will be if we don't make it. i will put the papers inside here. this is her library card.

i will put it in the back here, and i will get ksusha to wear it. the journey out of kherson is risky. civilians trying to escape have been attacked. but after a 36—hour journey and three months of living under occupation, dmytro and his family make it to safety. the bbc put the allegations made in this film to the russian security services. we did not receive a response. tens of thousands of allegations of war crimes have
1:46 pm
been recorded in ukraine since the start of russia's invasion. but how to investigate and prosecute all the cases? this is a key challenge for human rights activists in the country, including the center for civil liberties, one of the recipients of this year's nobel peace prize. oleksandra matviichuk is the organisation's head, and she's been speaking to the bbc�*s hugo bachega in herfirst interview on international television. when you look at things like this, how do you feel? i when you look at things like this, how do you feel?— how do you feel? i feel that it is additional _ how do you feel? i feel that it is additional episodes _ how do you feel? i feel that it is additional episodes of _ how do you feel? i feel that it is additional episodes of war - how do you feel? i feel that it is l additional episodes of war crimes which have been documented for eight years and which largely increased thereafter the 24th of february. that we have 21 episodes of war crimes which we jointly documented together with our partners throughout the country. and i ask

myself the question. who will provide justice for the whole victims of this horrible war crimes. there were horrible stories of people who survived from russian captivity, they told me how they were beaten, how they were raped, how their fingers were cut, how they were smashed into wooden boxes, how they were tortured with electricity etc. how has it affected you personally? we are all human beings. russians you war crimes as their method of war here. they try to break our resistance with inflicting immense pain on the civilian population. we document this pain. it is very difficult. it population. we document this pain. it is very difficult.— it is very difficult. it seems now that the russians _ it is very difficult. it seems now that the russians are _ it is very difficult. it seems now that the russians are trying - it is very difficult. it seems now that the russians are trying to l that the russians are trying to attack civilian infrastructure ahead of winter. , , ., . ., of winter. yes, it is a clear terrorist — of winter. yes, it is a clear terrorist tactic. _

1:50 pm
let the public do the voting this time. i don't want to see j a general election. no. bring back boris is all i say. dave was saying that he'd want to see a general election. that'd be a disaster. they stand there, the labour party, they stand there in the commons and they mock and they laugh. they decry everything that comes across, but they've got no answers themselves. i if boris hadn't have had a party, i them people would still have died. he got caught telling lies and whatever. the prime minister shouldn't be in that situation. well, i reckon whoever gets in, it's an annoyance or nothing. whatever happens. so do i. the teas, the fry—ups and the chat looks set to last for at least another week. john cahill, bbc south today, portsmouth.

team and a new clinic set up to ensure there is conformed —— informed consent about the risks and benefits of the procedure. now, the new series of the crown is released soon but it is causing a stir. damejudi dench has called the netflix drama "crude sensationalism", while the former prime minister sirjohn major dismissed it as "a barrel load of malicious nonsense." the plot covers royal events during the 90s, including the very public breakdown of the marriage between prince charles — now king charles — and diana. david sillito reports. in light of the events of the last 12 months perhaps i have more to reflect on than most. so here it is in the trailer for the new series. it's not giving a great deal away, but the story is clear — the turbulent
1:54 pm
years of charles and diana. and we do see a glimpse of sirjohn major. and there is a scene imagining a conversation between the former prime minister and the then prince charles, which sirjohn suggests they discussed the queen's abdication. it is, he says, nonsense. a view echoed by someone who got to know the prince well during those years, broadcaster and royal biographer, jonathan dimbleby. it is inconceivable that he would have suggested to the prime minister of the day that one way or another his mother should be obliged to abdicate in his favour. moreover, he was very, very much involved in public affairs, to which he was extraordinarily devoted. not least, of course, the environment and climate change. the idea, the very idea is nonsense, and this is nonsense on stilts. my worry about it is, i strongly favour freedom of dramatic expression and freedom
1:55 pm
of expression more generally. but this can very easily muddle people who are not familiar with how the constitution of this country operates. damejudi dench has also written to the times about what she fears is a cruel, unjust portrayal and says there needs to be an onscreen warning that this is fiction, not truth. however, netflix says it has always been open from the beginning that this is a fictional dramatization. the question is, of course, how much should we believe? tv critic scott bryan feels the public knows what it's watching. is it fact or is it fiction? i mean, that is the big question, isn't it? you're not quite certain what's fact and fiction, then? i mean, the audience must bejust as confused. i feel that audiences don't expect that it is a fact based thing. if they did, they would watch a documentary. i think from the very start. .. do you think people understand that
1:56 pm
they're making stuff up? i think they do. i mean, the crown has never said that it's been a documentary. i feel that from the very beginning people have always seen this as a drama. i think an element of confusion can come in because of its attention to detail and how it looks. the fact that they have actors who portray, sometimes very accurately, the mannerisms of the royal family. it feels like reality to me. and i watch it and i keep on going back to google going, "did this really happen?" i mean, it is confusing. well, at the same time, though, i say that people see it as a drama. it's always been a clear drama. it's been an indication of a drama. i think viewers deserve more credit. this was a difficult period for the royal family. the show�*s writer, peter morgan, admits it touches on painful memories, but says the show has not been unkind. how true it all is, is still unfolding. david sillito, bbc news.
1:57 pm
now it's time for a look at the weather with tomasz schafernaker. watch out for those shower clouds this afternoon. if you are not ready, you might have to run for cover. downpours are possible, maybe even a crack of thunder and overall the weekend is looking fairly unsettled with these areas of low pressure spinning around close to the uk, and if i add the winds, you can see those winds are blowing in also from the south—west, so from a warm direction, that is why it feels so mild for the time of year right now. through the weekend, we will continue to see low pressure circling the uk, some rain on the way but also some sunshine. it won't be raining today, you can see where showers are later in the afternoon, broken cloud, mild, 14 to 18 degrees, maybe even touching 20 of the next day or two in the south. lots of showers continuing this evening and overnight,
1:58 pm
they have a tendency to drift with the winds so from the south—west moving northwards. by the end of the night, it does look as though things will dry out across england and wales, very miles, ten to 14 degrees, but cloudy and rainy at times at least from morning onwards across scotland and northern ireland tomorrow. tomorrow in england and wales, central and eastern areas, you are in for sunshine here, a sunny day in hull, 17 degrees, but in plymouth we could see some showers, and around 16. on sunday, a more substantial area of rain sweeps in from the south, remember it's these areas of low pressure that keep circling the uk, they bring weather fronts in but the air is still coming in from the south or the south—west so those temperatures in the high teens across southern england and wales, more likely the mid—teens further north. out of the two days, saturday and sunday, saturday is the brighter day.
1:59 pm
next week, the low is still with us, weather fronts will continue to blow off the atlantic, he is a snapshot of monday, heavy spells of rain potentially for scotland, showers out towards the west, brighter, drierweather also further east. and the outlook again shows a smorgasbord of weather icons there from sunny spells to showers, downpours, and a crack of thunder as well. and staying mild. bye— bye.
2:00 pm
i'm martine croxall live at westminster. the headlines at 2. the uk will have a new prime minister in place within a week, after liz truss quit yesterday, barely six weeks into the job. nobody has declared their intention to run yet but among the defence secretary has ruled himself out. it has to get on with delivering on the mandate of 2019 which do is govern on behalf of the citizens of this country. a question also remains whether borisjohnson could attempt a return to downing street — and speculation is rife meanwhile, parties of opposition in england, scotland and wales have called for an immediate general election we don't have to go on like this. we
