the ballot, which closes tomorrow afternoon. our political correspondent, damian grammaticas reports. are damian grammaticas reports. you running for lead with are you running for leadership? with over 120 backers among tory mps, rishi sunak is the figure with the momentum in this race. significantly, he has been picking up significantly, he has been picking up endorsements from all wings of the party, including the right, and some who were close to boris johnson. like his former chief of staff, steve barclay, his former brexit minister, lord frost, and the current international trade secretary kemi badenoch. writing in the summertime she said, i have on occasion been a member of the boris johnson fan club." but the conservative party is not a fanclub, adding, what we need is the disciplined approach richey brings to government. the endorsements are a blow for borisjohnson who the endorsements are a blow for boris johnson who flew back from

the endorsements are a blow for borisjohnson who flew back from a boris johnson who flew back from a caribbean holiday yesterday, hoping to engineer an unlikely political comeback. 50 to engineer an unlikely political comeback-— to engineer an unlikely political comeback. ., ., ., comeback. so i want to say to the millions of — comeback. so i want to say to the millions of people... _ comeback. so i want to say to the millions of people... just - comeback. so i want to say to the millions of people... just three i millions of people... just three months since _ millions of people. .. just three months since mr— millions of people... just three months since mrjohnson - millions of people... just three months since mrjohnson was l millions of people... just three - months since mrjohnson was forced to resign after ministers quit his government in droves. he went straight to hit the phones to try to rally support. despite the bravado, the bbc�*s counters just over 50 mps publicly back, well below the 100 supporters his team were claiming yesterday. among them is his former home secretary priti patel, treating he had a proven track record, getting the big decisions right. "i'm backing him." she said. the only formal candidate to declare running as penny mordaunt, trailing withjust over 20 mps running as penny mordaunt, trailing with just over 20 mps declaring support for her. writing on the sunday express she said, we have let ourselves become distracted by internal disputes, our most urgent priority must be to unite the party. i know i can bring us together. this

was july. i know i can bring us together. this wasjuly. boris i know i can bring us together. this was july. boris johnson to i know i can bring us together. this wasjuly. borisjohnson to the right, rishi sunak as chancellor. later that day, mr sunak quit. mr johnson did last week. the bbc was told the two hold talks last night. the teams wouldn't comment. so who will come out on top now? mr sunak? borisjohnson or penny mordaunt? and can any healer party? let's speak now to our political correspondent, helen catt. good morning. that chat between johnson and sumac, to be a fly on the wall! what came out of it? we don't know what they were discussing because the whole process is being done behind closed doors, but what we can see is why it would be in both of their interests to meet, and that is because rishi sunak is the numbers. he is guaranteed to be on the ballot tomorrow, but if you think back to the summer, rishi sunak had enough

mp4, he won the vote in every round but when it went to the membership they chose liz truss, and the thinking is if it went to boris johnson on the ballot they would choose him, so there is clear incentive for rishi sunak to not run. for mrjohnson, his team claimed that he has the 100 backers to get on the ballot but only 53 are publicly verifiable, so some sunak supporters are sceptical he has the numbers. even if he does, the mentor has been so clearly with mr sunak over the past few hours that the danger is that so many of his mps may breakfrom danger is that so many of his mps may break from rishi danger is that so many of his mps may breakfrom rishi sunak danger is that so many of his mps may break from rishi sunak and danger is that so many of his mps may breakfrom rishi sunak and if he were to win you would get the parliamentary party should he couldn't command the competence of, and you can see the mess that ensues. you can see what the incentives after meeting. we don't know what a sad, because everything is done behind closed doors. that ensues. you can see what the incentives after meeting. we don't know what a sad, because everything is done behind closed doors. that'll change this appearing on laura kuenssberg's programme later. she is travelling at the moment, so they

will be a big boost for her to pick up will be a big boost for her to pick up more votes, and of course it'll be interesting to see a boris johnson run, how will that benefit our campaign?— our campaign? interesting how cuickl it our campaign? interesting how quickly it develops. _ our campaign? interesting how quickly it develops. thank- our campaign? interesting how quickly it develops. thank you. j a 12—year—old boy has died, after a garage wall collapsed at a house in essex. a man in his 30s was pulled from the rubble with an arm injury, but the boy died at the scene on friday night. jon ironmonger has the story. this was the desperate scene on st john's road captured by a passing motorist. the sudden tragic incident drew a large emergency response, and the crowd of concerned neighbours. it is understood amount of the property had been working to dismantle a garage and had removed the roof when a freestanding wall collapsed. the man in his 30s was injured and rescued from the rubble, however a boy of 12, who was known to the man, died on the scene, despite the best efforts of officers from a fire station directly next

door. as you can expect, crews were the first on scene after apparently hearing a woman screaming outside of the property. they used inflatable airbags to lift the wall of the man and boy beneath it. the station manager has said it was a difficult incident to attend and those officers are being offered support. the man is being treated for his injuries in hospital and the house has been declared safe. police are trying to find out what led to the wall to collapse. the boy's death is not being treated as suspicious. jon ironmonger, bbc news. nearly 1.5 million homes in ukraine are currently without power, after russia launched wide scale attacks on ukraine's energy grid. almost a third of the country's power stations and other energy—generating facilities have been destroyed since last monday. president zelensky says the strikes won't stop ukraine's military advance. as louisa pilbeam reports. the war has become a battle for

sunshine. it's driven by this, no great surprise, a low pressure. this particular frontal system is driving the heavy rain in the south at the moment. centraladdress the heavy rain in the south at the moment. central address closer and will bring more showers this afternoon. right now, all over the past two hours, this is what is happening with these intense downpours and thunderstorms drifting across south west england into parts of wales, the midlands, the channel islands are very wet, all of this wet weather drifting its way northwards over the next few hours but if you are in this sort of area and you have early—morning travel plans, bear in mind they could be some really poor conditions out on the roads. you can see the wet weather continuing its journey north across england into northern ireland, southern scotland through the first part of the afternoon, northern scotland potentially quite misty and murky for a time with a little bit of sunshine developing. bridges through the afternoon 14—18 and then despite some sunshine developing across england and wales, we will see further heavy, thundery

downpours pushing into the late afternoon into the evening at the same time that this band of rain tracks northwards across scotland. the other thing through tonight is the strength of the wind, following through this english channel through the day over strait into east anglia, some coastal paths likely to see gusts up to 50 mph and may be more than that in places overnight. it will be mild, temperatures between nine and 13 degrees. over the start of the new working week monday is essentially a sunshine and showers day with more persistent rain across northern scotland and cloudy and wet for a time in northern ireland. england, wales, sunny spells and a scattering of heavy, thundery showers. it will be windy, quite windy across the northern isles and staying windy towards the south of england, parts of south wales. those are your average wind speeds and gusts will be stronger than that. temperatures again when they have been through the weekend with 14—18, a touch above the norm. that may be that tuesday gives a brief dry interlude,

a brief chance to draw breath at there is another frontal system approaching, yet another, likely to bring rain for some later in the day and they're really, as you can see, is a selection of four places across the uk but it sums up the story for all of us that they will be further showers or longer spells of rain, it will be windy at times but temperatures above where we would expect them to be, 15 or 16 in the north of the uk, may be 19 or 20 down towards the south.- north of the uk, may be 19 or 20 down towards the south. that's how it's looking- — down towards the south. that's how it's looking. thank _ down towards the south. that's how it's looking. thank you, _ down towards the south. that's how it's looking. thank you, ben, i down towards the south. that's how it's looking. thank you, ben, a i down towards the south. that's how it's looking. thank you, ben, a bit. it's looking. thank you, ben, a bit of wind and rain for half term. it's what we can expect! parfor par for the course, expect no less! when england's women footballers made history in the summer by winning the euros, they didn'tjust bring home a trophy — they left a legacy. in milton keynes, their success has inspired a brand new team to be set up for people living with dementia and their carers, and it's already proving a huge success.

"deal or no deal" is the sun's headline. it comes after borisjohnson and rishi sunak were last night locked in talks to see if they can strike a deal to crown one as prime minister, the paper reports. we are all wondering this morning what they say and what conclusion did they come true? —— did they come to? the sunday times reports that rishi sunak is forging ahead in the tory leadership race, winning the backing of leading figures of the party as support for borisjohnson appeared to stall. elsewhere, the sunday people leads with a story about schools being crippled by the "cost of chaos". the paper says teachers have pulled out lightbulbs to cut bills, while nine out of 10 schools will "run out of money within a year". and here's a story that features inside a few papers this morning — this is private addy carter.

ten—year—old quinn has climbed all of scotland's munros. she has been scaling with her dad since she was four. take a look at some of ian and quinn's memories from their climbs.

what a little legend! incredible -ictures. we'll be speaking to quinn and ian about their achievement before eight o'clock. we will get more of their stories of that incredible achievement. sarah is here with the sport this morning. three world cups for you. do not say i don't deliver! we will start with this guy who plays for england, 21—year—old dominic young who is at the world cup and lighting things up, a real kind of breakout star and we love that at a world cup and he scored a brilliant trial yesterday. will he be the name that everyone remembers?— will he be the name that everyone remembers? ., , ., , remembers? some of the summaries in the name remembers? some of the summaries in the game yesterday. — remembers? some of the summaries in the game yesterday, people _ remembers? some of the summaries in the game yesterday, people were i the game yesterday, people were comparing him to the greats and that is how our excited i am! that's how excited they were. they were comparing him to the great martin offiah so definitely a name for

everyone to keep an eye on. hosts england are almost certainly through to the quarterfinals, and with a game to spare. they're still unbeaten, as they cruised to victory over france in bolton — 42 points to 18 as adam wild now reports. preparing for a party in bolton. this is much more like the noise and atmosphere that this tournament is desperate to find but nothing brings to life an occasion quite the hosts in sparkling form. and here was england. the audience was waiting. they didn't have to wait long — no—one has scored more for england than ryan hall. this was the first of two tries in the opening minute. they call victor radley victor the inflict. here is victor the assistant, luke thompson given the stroll to the post. while he ran away with it, england weren't allowed to, france finding an energy that few expected, wriggling their way back into it before the break. but that, for england was quite

enough of a warning, a renewed focus and force. first, elliott whitehead went storming through. a calmness and control restored. that's before england's fans lost theirs completely. dom young, turning into the superstar of the tournament. he ran the full length of the field, the blockbuster moment the occasion deserved. after criticism over empty seats, this is a little more what organisers will have wanted. at times it was not as comfortable as many england fans expected but it was, crucially, the victory england needed. adam wilde, bbc news in bolton. there was a huge upset in the premier league as liverpool were beaten 1—0 by nottingham forest at the city ground. a second half goal from taiwo awoniyi, who was previously at liverpool without making a competitive appearance, proved the winner. much to the delight of a bouyant city ground, who saw their side club climb off the bottom of the table and raise more questions about liverpool's form.

no. casemiro scored an injury time equaliser as manchester united drew one all at chelsea. it followed jorgino's late penalty. the draw extends graham potter's unbeaten run to eight matches since taking over as manager at stamford bridge. erling haaland was back on the scoresheet again for manchester city with two goals, as they beat brighton 3—1 at the etihad. after not scoring against liverpool last week, haaland took his tally to 17 goals in 11 premier league games. really tough game. they, they decide to play the game like man to man on the page, and, you know, they have made free to make the process, just the keebah, and it is difficult because inaudible we suffer a lot. we were lucky that the quality of cabin, that goal, but one of the toughest games we can face right now. the result, three more results

to fit in it. everton ended their run of three successive defeats with a 3—0 victory over crystal palace at goodison park. substitute dwight mcneil scored the third goal. the win moves everton up to 11th; palace drop to 12th. when dominick said the team would be more direct and get second pause, later up the pitch, i think the second goal was a real credit to the players staying calm. sometimes i saw them getting the ball forward quickly, the crowds were bad, but the goal is fantastic. it was a really good often advised to see the team feel that confidence and to see players coming into the game that maybe haven't been getting so many minutes and that is great for the group. in the scottish premiership, leaders celtic eventually triumphed li—3 over hearts in a gripping enounter at tynecastle. lawrence shankland hit a hat—trick for the home side, but hearts were beaten by a greg taylor winner 15 minutes from time. rangers drew with livingston. in the women's super league, everton beat aston villa i—o. elsewhere, two goals from khadija shaw helped

manchester city earn a second successive wsl victory at tottenham hotspur. the win eases pressure on manager gareth taylor after his side lost their opening two wsl games, and they're out of the champions' league. england got their t20 cricket world cup off to a winning start as they beat afghanistan in perth. sam curran became the first man to take five wickets in a t20 international for his country as the bowlers gave the batsmen a relatively easy job. jane dougall was watching. huddled together, england's knew anything but a victory in huddled together, england's knew anything but a victory in this huddled together, england's knew anything but a victory in this match would be a shock, but afghanistan have improved of late and working to show it. captainjos buttler�*s decision to field first paid off handsomely. liam livingstone's superb dive... brilliant catch! got some musical appreciation. then came a succession of set successful catches from moeen ali and this one from

buttler. but it was sam curran who was man of the match. 54 was man of the match. 5a sam curran! becoming the first englishman to take five wickets in an international t20. and so too bad. an international t20. and so too had. 113, the target for england, but the afghans had good fielders of their own. brilliant! the chase perhaps tougher for england than expected, but livingston's unbeaten 29 got them over the line. a convincing win then by five wickets and england second in the group. jean dougal, bbc news. and i want a plane striker in the t20 world cup approaching the end of the innings, 121—eight. carlos sainz is going to head on pole tonight. charles leclerc was second fastest in qualifying, but a penalty means he will start from 12th on the grid and carlos sainz will be hoping to

convert his opposition to his second race win of the season. and some rugby union. the saracens have continued their winning season. alex goode, on as a sub, for a record—equalling 338th first team appearance, kicked a penalty in added time to keep sarries unbeaten run on track. in the united rugby championship, edinburgh got their first away win of the season at italian side zebre. henry immelman helped his side to a bonus point winning 38—19 victory in parma. and i will end with a third world, of the morning, the rugby world cup for the women, new zealand and england paying right now. approaching half—time, 29have already qualified for the quarter—finals but if they won they could top the group and also that would help wales make sure they are also through to the last eight. thank you. worn out listening to

for 300 years, on and off, estonia was part of russia. ruled first by the tzarist empire and then the soviet union. links between the two are many indeed, in fact, around a third of the people here have russian as their first language. but since the invasion of ukraine in february, the government has steered a course very firmly away from its powerful neighbour. there have been travel bans for russian tourists, and something even more dramatic. historic russian and soviet monuments are being removed from public view. and notjust here. the other baltic states, latvia and lithuania, are making similar

symbolic gestures. explosion this was among the first — a replica tank commemorating soviet soldiers killed during world war ii. it's been moved to estonia's war museum from the town of narva, which sits right on the russian border. the government says it's to avert what it calls "increasing social tension". oh, wow! look at this. very welcome! the t—3li was produced from may 'iios to '60s, more than 80,000. so, it's extremely ordinary tank, nothing special. wow — i mean, you say nothing special but, i mean, there's — that is like a rock. that's why it is tank. laughs. why do you think a museum

is a better place for these sorts of objects? that's why the museums are created for — to keep the history. it's a question of symbols. and for our people, that is a symbol of occupation, that's a symbol of soviet troops and we wanted to turn a new page. as you can see, we're not destroying it, we keep it. but the links are impossible to sever. so many of the big public spaces around the capital are russian built. they're are bold, architecturally distinctive and pretty popular, too. these days, the peter the great seaplane harbour is a maritime museum, painstakingly restored. the foreboding patarei sea fortress now hosts gigs and club nights. and noblessner port, imperial russia's submarine factory, is fast becoming tallinn's new leisure district.

as well as cafes, bars and new luxury apartments on the way, there is this - proto. its owners call it an invention factory. it's sort of an interactive museum. so, as we cycle, the little cyclists on the track go round, so it's a race now. yes! it's a competition, yes! so, tell me more about this incredible building — i assume it hasn't always hosted parlour games. exactly. this building, it was the foundry... wow. ..of the shipyard. next to it was the coopersmith, then there were some storages, local power plant, the engine generator workshop and assembly workshop, so huge area where submarines were produced, yes. among all of the family attractions, there are still glimpses of the building's former life. this is a control panel to open the gate, which is here. 0h, here we go! here, these are — exactly, these giant gates.

that is a giant gate. yes. that was used to take the ships out of the foundry. 0h, right, so they'd bring them in and out here? yep. you'd press the button and they'd rumble on out? so, how do you feel about the russian and soviet monuments being taken down? well, i believe — i believe that the monuments would not kind of like give a tribute to the regime but they should preserve the history and the memory. in this case, the best place for the monument is in a museum. we have this place. this is a wonderful way of people to learn the history and to remember the history. so it's preserving the history, not celebrating the ideology. absolutely right. these spaces are being lovingly restored. money and hard work have been spent to make them attractive. some haven't had that treatment but have become popular nonetheless. this is rummu.

it was one of a string of soviet—run prisons that used to stretch across estonia. it has quite a grim backstory. that's all history now, right? from their arrival in 1940, the soviets used prisoners here to mine and process limestone from the quarry. when estonia regained its independence in 1991, the site was abandoned and reclaimed by rising groundwater. today, it's become popular with swimmers, divers and snorkellers. so, what can you tell me about this building and what it would have been when it was a functioning prison? prisoners were working in all positions. they were working in this building, they working in the mine, where they were — they were digging out the material.

they were also working as the ones who were making the explosions to get the material off. so most probably, they are the reason why this quarry was floated. the limestone makes the water such a striking colour that some call it 'the blue lagoon'. i think the most precious places here is the visibility. as you see today, we can see almost, like, five, six metres — four, for sure — and every time i go diving here, i see something new. there's a complicated legacy of this place, given its history? i think the persons that were staying in this prison, for sure, they don't want to come back here. but for the rest of us,

it's mainly the place we can spend summertime or enjoy the water because it's really warm and it's really good visibility here and we can see everything inside. i really love being here in the water. sigrid has genuine affection for rummu. she wants to preserve it and stop it falling into the hands of developers. this could be considered as having a very strong association with the soviet period. do you think that these sorts of places should be preserved or taken down? that depends on the place and it depends on the monument maybe, because most of them have been taken down already. maybe the ones that we can use for the future to have the place to go, to see some pieces — some pieces of history, they should stay where they are. estonia is at a crossroads.

many people are happy to see this country distanced from the russian regime but there's a shared history here — one that's not going to be disappearing anytime soon. and if you're thinking of heading to estonia, here are some travel show tips to help with your planning. tallinn is a classic christmas market sort of town and it looks lovely lit up in the town hall square from late november. pay attention to the tree. estonians reckon their capital was home to europe's first christmas tree in 14111. that claim is disputed by latvia but tallinn still makes a big deal of it nonetheless. a couple of highlights from the old town. olde hansa at a super—touristy but fun mediaeval—themed restaurant, just around the corner from the gothic town hall. it claims its food is still made to 17th—century recipes.

also nearby is niguliste museum, in the 12th century st nicholas church. the big show piece there is bernt notke's danse macabre, which invites you to think about the futility of life. and sauna culture is everywhere in estonia. there's a good chance theyre will be one wherever you're staying, but look out for smoke saunas, where you'll sweat in the aroma of stripped alder and birch logs. still to come on the travel show — reflections on the summer of intense heat across the northern hemisphere... are they sweet? 0h! ..and the sweet, sweet taste of estonia's bogs. they're very sour! so don't go away.

this week, we're exploring estonia and just while we're in the capital of tallinn, i wanted to you this. this is a remote working pod. it's in the middle of a shopping centre, right in the cool part of town. places like this have been popping up since the pandemic throughout tallinn. the authorities have been keen to encourage people to come and work in estonia for an extended length of time and as a result have introduced special 30—day digital nomad visas. and it's notjust the visas — in tallinn, they've installed wi—fi across the city, all key services are online and cool co—working spaces like this are popping up all over. these office huts overlook the baltic. hiya! how are you doing? hi, miguel. nice to meet you. good to meet you — ooh, isn't it toasty warm in here? you need to experience the estonian winter

because it's something different — it's dark and it's cold but it's also very cosy and warm. what is it about tallinn that makes this such a great place for digital nomads? the very cool co—working spaces are around, there's a very good tech scene, also a very good start—up scene. it is very open and friendly. everything invites you to, you know, relax, to focus on yourjob. and in case you were in any doubt about how they like to finish the working day here, this place has four offices and five saunas. hi. my name is miriam nielsen and i'm working towards my phd at colombia university studying hydroclimate extremes. i also make youtube videos about climate change and climate activism. this summer and, frankly, the last several years, the northern hemisphere especially has been seeing these intense dramatic heatwaves that are predominantly caused

by increasing global temperature like climate change and we're seeing that in places like the uk and california. you know, what you're seeing in yosemite, in the sierra is more fires and this year, boy, it's — you know, when i first moved up here about 25 years ago, we'd get, you know, maybe one major fire every five or ten years. we're getting major fires every year now, and multiple ones. the problems are the melting snow on the glaciers. - we have a lot more crevasse incidents because the snow. coverage on the glaciers is totally thinned out. and then, many places, i the glaciers are receding. we had to basically stop guiding certain trips - on certain glaciers because it just became too dangerous l for a while because the snow bridges on the glaciers - was too thin.

this has increased the number of accidents with crevasses. i what basically happened is the jet stream, which is this meandering current of air, got stuck in one place. and so, all of this hot air from northern africa ended up piling up and that led to really, really high temperatures, which impacts everyone from sitting at home to, you know, snowpack on mountaintops. i mean, i'm not a climate expert, but obviously there is climate change in place and if it continues like this, i think we just need to maybe adapt our scheduling, programming, and all these ice fields are literally gone. there's absolutely some things you can do. - we don't know the cause of the washburn fire - but it was human, you know? there was no - lightning that day. so, somebody dropped i a cigarette, somebody did something. sojust be aware. if you're from areas - where it's maybe not as dry, even parking your car- off pavement, you know, on dry grass, that has sparked fires up here that people have|

lost homes over. campfires are banned at most elevations during the summer but still, don't even try it. we have had fires that had started — and again, - people have lost homes by illegal campfires. - so i think it'sjust be aware of the environment around | you during the summer in california, even - in a non—drought year. it's dry, we don't have rain for months, it is ready- to spark at the slightest human error. _ so be aware of all your actions when you're visiting the park. i so, the thing that i try to cling to is that with all these disasters from heatwaves to flooding is that none of them are really new. humans have experienced all these events for a very, very long time and we've built structures and communities to cope with them. and we can keep doing that and we can respond to how the world is changing around us. well, obviously, travelling can be a huge source of emissions. spending time outside is one

of the least emitting things you can do and if you go looking for it, you can find these beautiful natural spaces basically anywhere. i've left the capital tallinn now and i'm making for estonia's countryside... this looks almost like savannah. itjust goes on forever. ..and for a landscape whose reputation has done something of an about—face in recent years. around 7% of estonia is made up of this bogland. and it's fair to say in the past, not everyone was a huge fan — in fact, people would regard a landscape like this with horror because folklore said that this is exactly the kind of place where you might be waylaid by evil spirits.

times have changed, though, and it's now becoming apparent just how useful these bogs are. the world's peatlands store twice as much carbon as forest, according to the un, and that makes them enormously valuable in the fight against climate change. it's odd to see a digger at work in a forest and to know that it's doing good. marcus! hello! i'm christa. good to meet you. nice to meet you. as a result, estonia is making efforts to restore and re—bog some of the land that was drained decades ago. what is this big — i mean, it looks like mud, but is this peat? yeah, that is peat. actually, if you look, it is almost decayed but not totally decomposed, the plant material. ah, you can still see the fibres.

here it was maybe the depth of the peat layer is two metres, which means that so approximately, the lowest layers are 2,000 years old. we are trying to restore the forest habitats because in 1960s, back then, this type of landscape was considered a total wasteland. why is it important to restore these peatlands? it is important for carbon emissions. we want to stop carbon emissions here. we want that this peatland would store carbon, not emitting it. but people here are also finding out what a stunning playground this environment is. glad to meet you. good to meet you too. i have my gumboots ready! very good! ready to hit the bogs. let's go. aivar is a guide who, lives, works and plays here in soomaa national park. he floats through the bogs in his canoe, skates and sledges on them in the winter, and stomps through them in these.

any tips? it's not that difficult, actually. you just walk. and one important thing when you want to turn back, you always come with a u—turn. you don't step like this because of this, but the u—turn, it works well. 0k, these are one—way bog shoes. yes, only forward. 0k! whoop! bog shoes are a bit like snowshoes, and our crew don't fall over, george. there is a lot there. there's a lot. jordan has just emptied about a litre of water out of his boot. and that is why you wear bog shoes.

chuckles. so, yeah, what is all this made up of? because it feels like we're walking on a big sponge. yeah, it is mostly made of the moss. more specifically, sphagnum moss. so, this is the plant here. ah, 0k! and if you take some of it, yeah, so you can... oh, it's really like a sponge, isn't it? so it's like a... it is rotting down there, becoming peat. but in the top hit, it is growing, it is green, yeah, like... yes, it is living. it's sort of a... and it is full of water. so it doesn't look like water but if you squeeze it... oh, wow! look at that! it may look like a barren landscape but there is plenty here to forage. it looks like someone has just spilled some berries

on the ground. do you want to taste? ido! i have had cranberryjuice before but i have never had a cranberry. are they sweet? 0h... laughs. 0h, they're very sour! not that sour. coughs. and there is just one final chilly treat that aivar is keen to show me. all right. are you sure about this? is this a good idea? not really. oh, oh god! i can already feel how cold it is! actually quite cold! laughs. this water makes you feel like your skin is softer, makes you, like, a little bit younger. i mean, it would want to, because it is really cold. screams. it is really cold! oh, it is really, really cold. i can see how after a bit of a — working up a sweat,

bog—shoeing, this would be a nice sort of shock to the system. so, how far does this go down? a few metres. so, if you... there is no bottom there. so, i think the verdict for the bog swimming is absolutely freezing cold when you don't come in the summer. wow, but i mean, what a setting. i definitely needed to warm up after that. shivers. but that's all we have for this week's programme. don't forget, you can catch up on our recent adventures by going to bbc iplayer, and there's plenty of other great travel content from around the bbc — just follow the handles on the screen now. until next time, stay warm and bye—bye.

some sunshine as well. all the details coming up. it's sunday 23rd october. our main story. as the deadline to enter the contest to replace liz truss draws closer, two of the likely contenders — borisjohnson and rishi sunak — have held private talks. neither have publicly declared they are entering the race — but the bbc�*s tally indicates that mr sunak has already received the backing of at least 128 mps. that's significantly more than the 100 needed to enter the ballot, which closes tomorrow afternoon. 0ur political correspondent, damian grammaticas reports. reporter: are you running for leadership? _ with well over 120 public backers among tory mps, rishi sunak is the figure with the momentum in this race. significantly, mr sunak been picking up endorsements from all wings of the party, including the right, and some who were close to boris johnson. like his former chief of staff, steve barclay, his former brexit minister, lord frost, and the current international trade

secretary kemi badenoch. writing in the sunday times, ms badenoch said: the endorsements are a blow for borisjohnson who flew back from a caribbean holiday yesterday, hoping to engineer an unlikely political comeback. so i want to say to the millions of people... it's just three months since mrjohnson was forced to resign after ministers quit his government in droves. he went straight to hit the phones to try to rally support. but despite the bravado, the bbc�*s count is thatjust over 50 mps publicly back him — well below the 100 supporters his team were claiming yesterday. among them is his former home secretary priti patel. she tweeted that mrjohnson had...

the only formal candidate to have formally declare they are running is penny mordaunt. she trails with just over 20 mps declaring they're supporting her. writing on the sunday express ms mordaunt said: this was july. borisjohnson. to the right — rishi sunak, his chancellor. later that day, mr sunak quit. mrjohnson did last week. the bbc was told the two hold talks last night. their teams wouldn't comment. so who will come out on top now? mr sunak, borisjohnson or penny mordaunt? and can any heal a divided party? let's speak now to our political correspondent, helen catt. helen, what do we know about the private talks held

between borisjohnson and rishi sunak? all we know is that they happened yesterday evening. much of this is being done or all of it is being done behind closed doors. so we don't know yet what was discussed, what they talked about, but you can pretty easily see the incentives on each side for why they might want to talk things through. rishi sunak is guaranteed a place on the ballot, he has the number of mps he needs, he has the number of mps he needs, he has guaranteed the place but if you think back to the summer he won every single round of voting for mps but when it came to the membership they chose liz truss, and the thinking is if borisjohnson makes it to the ballot the membership are more likely to choose him. you can see there is a strong incentive for rishi sunak, four borisjohnson to not be on that ballad. for boris johnson, his supporters claim he has

got the 100 backers, but as you say, only about 50, over 50 are publicly verifiable so there is scepticism among rishi sunak supporters that he has actually got those numbers. the other thing of course is that the momentum is strongly with rishi sunak, it has been over the last few hours, and there is for boris johnson is that even if he has the numbers for the ballot, if so many come out in support of rishi sunak and borisjohnson than wins, then in the case he could end up with a parliamentary party which is unreadable, and we have seen what happens when that happens. thank you ve much. happens when that happens. thank you very much- as — happens when that happens. thank you very much- as we _ happens when that happens. thank you very much. as we were _ happens when that happens. thank you very much. as we were saying, - happens when that happens. thank you very much. as we were saying, the - very much. as we were saying, the deadline is two o'clock tomorrow. a busy 2a hours ahead. certainly there will be developments today. electricity has been restored in some areas of ukraine following a wave of russian airstrikes targeting electricity. almost a third of the country's power stations and other energy—generating facilities have been destroyed since last monday.

president zelensky says the strikes won't stop ukraine's military advance. as louisa pilbeam reports. the war has become a battle for power, with blackouts across vast areas of ukraine. the country's officials claim that russian missile strikes have destroyed a third of the country's power plants. the rest are working at limited capacity, leaving well over a million households without electricity. the president has called the strikes terror attacks on ukraine's infrastructure. translation: the main target for russian terrorist is energy, | therefore, please consume electricity even more consciously than before. the stability of our state energy industry depends on each city and district of ukraine. families are trying to conserve energy, but trying to earn a living somehow, too. translation: we live this way because of the frequent strikes| by the russian

federation on ukraine. almost every day, electricity is cut off, therefore sometimes we have no water for two, four or even six hours a day. we can't work, even remotely. when daylight comes, people do what they can to plan as temperatures drop daily. translation: powerl cuts hit us sometimes. when there's no electricity i light candles. i'm prepare for the situation. my bed is covered with more bedclothes, enough to keep me warm. president volodymyr zelensky said the russian attacks had struck on a very wide scale. with hint to the west, perhaps, he spoke of a need to improve their anti—missile weapons. translation: our air forces are also demonstrating good results. - of course, we do not

have the the technical ability yet to shoot down 100% of russian missiles and attacking drones. we will gradually achieve this, with the help of our partners i'm sure, but we are already shooting down most cruise missiles and drones. in the meantime, ukraine races to repair its infrastructure before winter's freezing temperatures. louisa pilbeam, bbc news. a 12—year—old boy has died, after a garage wall collapsed at a house in essex. a man in his 30s was pulled from the rubble with an arm injury, but the boy died at the scene on friday night. jon ironmonger has the story. this was the desperate scene on stjohn's road captured by a passing motorist. the sudden, tragic incident drew a large emergency response and a crowd of concerned neighbours. it's understood amount of the property had been working to dismantle a garage, and had removed the roof when a freestanding wall collapsed.

the man in his 30s was injured and rescued from the rubble, however, a boy of 12, who was known to the man, died at the scene, despite the best efforts of officers from a fire station which is directly next door. as you'd expect, crews from this station were among the first on the scene after apparently hearing a woman screaming outside of the property. they used inflatable airbags to lift the wall up off the man and boy beneath it. the station manager has said it was a difficult incident to attend and those officers are being offered support. the man is being treated for his injuries in hospital, and the house has been declared safe. police are trying to find out what led the wall to collapse. the boy's death is not being treated as suspicious. jon ironmonger, bbc news. 90% of uk schools will have run out of money by the next academic year because of increased bills, according to head teachers. 13 national education associations have written an open letter to conservative mps, warning that the average secondary school will be facing a shortfall of up to £250,000 pounds by 202a.

the department of education says schools will benefit from the energy bill relief scheme, as well as an increase in funding. the founder of the red bull energy drinks empire, dietrich mateschitz, has died at the age of 78. the austrian businessman discovered the drink in 1984 and, following the brand's success, he set up a formula 1 racing team which has become one of the leading forces in the sport. ahead of the us grand prix yesterday, the principal of red bull racing said the team was determined to "do their best for him". avanti west coast train services are due to return to normal this morning after yesterday's walkout over pay and conditions. the disruption meant greater manchester mayor andy burnham and liverpool city region mayor steve rotheram were late for a press conference about rail chaos in the north of england. davinia ramos has more. you couldn't make it up. the mayors of liverpool

and manchester running late to talk about the current rail chaos because their train was cancelled, and they've had enough. we're not second—class citizens in the north. we shouldn't have a second class rail system, and it's causing misery to passengers. enough is enough. andy burnham and steve rotheram want more cash for train operators in the north of england to help deal with huge cancellations and delays. it comes as a number of avanti west coast rail services were cut on saturday due to action by train managers. it meant only one train per hour ran from london to liverpool, manchester and glasgow, with the firm apologising for any inconvenience it caused. and earlier this week, transpennine express cancelled around 55 services in just one day. it's no surprise that passengers i spoke to are fed up. i travel to manchester every day and i now take the car. so, yeah, yeah, i wish i didn't have to because of the environment but i take the car.

because you can't rely on it? i can't rely on it. i'm travelling to london today and usually that's about, i don't know, 2.5 hours. 0n the train today it's going to take me about four 'cause i've got to crewe, then derby, then down to london, and tomorrow i'm doing the same. trains are only running once an hour |so me and my friend just used a car| instead of using public transport. i'm in uni and work in town, and my 8am is cancelled every day. transpennine express apologised, blaming the disruption on staffing issues and training backlogs. the department of transport says it's working closely with train operators to ensure disruptions are kept to a minimum. but there are concerns that the situation is having a huge impact on the economy in the north—west. it's taking visitors out of the city like this or like manchester at the weekend. people give up and coming into the city and having a night out because they get fear getting towards the end of the night and their train gets cancelled. next month, there'll be further strikes and passengers are being warned, yet again, to expect problems. davina ramos, bbc news.

right at the heart of trying to manage the last financial crisis when last people ran the country, as you have been hearing this country, were feeling the pinch and it will be fascinating to hear that his reflections on how tough things make it this time around so i hope to see you either at nine o'clock on bbc one or on the iplayer later. back to ou. will one or on the iplayer later. back to you. will do. _ one or on the iplayer later. back to you. will do, cannot _ one or on the iplayer later. back to you. will do, cannot wait _ one or on the iplayer later. back to you. will do, cannot wait to - one or on the iplayer later. back to you. will do, cannot wait to see - you. will do, cannot wait to see where we are at this time next week. goodness knows! see where we are at this time next week. goodness knows!— where we are at this time next week. goodness knows! see you soon. laura kuenssber: goodness knows! see you soon. laura kuenssberg at — goodness knows! see you soon. laura kuenssberg at nine _ goodness knows! see you soon. laura kuenssberg at nine o'clock. _ let's have a look at how the leadership contest will be playing out of the coming days. or at least as much as we know. we could be finding out who will replace liz truss as early as tomorrow. conservative mps have until two o'clock monday to nominate the candidate. each one needs at least100 nominations. if only one of them gets that, they will be declared prime minister later tomorrow. t3 prime minister later tomorrow. f3 candidates get 100 nominations, the

mps will vote. a final choice of two will be made by votes online. if will be made by votes online. if that happens, the new party leader and prime minister will be declared on friday. ben boulos is at a market in east london for us this morning. ben, what are you hearing from people there? ben, you shouldn't have! what is the electorate thinking? that is what it comes down to, and who will— that is what it comes down to, and who will come up smelling of roses out of— who will come up smelling of roses out of all— who will come up smelling of roses out of all of— who will come up smelling of roses out of all of this. good morning from _ out of all of this. good morning from colombia rod fowler market in east london. let me show you what i have and _ east london. let me show you what i have and enjoy looking at this morning _ have and enjoy looking at this morning. some roses, some snow berries _ morning. some roses, some snow berries look— morning. some roses, some snow berries. look at the purple eucalyptus. isn't it alljust absolutely stunning? this market has been here _ absolutely stunning? this market has been here for about 150 years. william — been here for about 150 years. william gladstone was the prime minister— william gladstone was the prime minister then. the traders here are

0k, thank you, we will let you get ready for the day. thank you for chatting. there are about 50 stores here on this market. come and let's have a little chat to shane, who has also been trading here for some years. your take on everything we have seen, it has been quite a week. it certainly has. who would you like i would like to see rishi sunak. what is it about him? from a business point of view, here's what we need in the country, steer the country forward. working in the city himself, i think you could do a lot of good for the country. it would give some confidence in the government. it would give some confidence in the government-— it would give some confidence in the hovernment. ~ .., , ., ., ,, government. when it comes to making neo . le feel government. when it comes to making people feel confident _ government. when it comes to making people feel confident about _ people feel confident about spending, have you noticed people being more frugal, holding back a bit when it comes to the market? everybody is uncertain of what will happen next. fuel prices going

it is important. let's discuss the leadership race in more detail now. we'rejoined by sonia sodha from the observer and george parker from the financial times. good morning. sonia, do you think things could happen quickly today? potentially. what we're looking at is three candidates in the race, as you are just saying. they all have to make this all—important threshold of 100 mps backing them by 2pm, monday. but the reality is, it isn't just about the maths. there is a lot of pressure behind the scenes for this not to go to conservative party members. there is some pressure on penny mordaunt, the person with the fewest votes, to drop out. there is pressure on borisjohnson from some of his closest allies actually her back to the last time around saying, this isn't the right time for you to run, you need to take a step back, and tv does, bows mps, they have

their thinking that they could go to penny mordaunt, so we could see penny mordaunt, so we could see penny mordaunt, so we could see penny mordaunt versus rishi sunak. so it is entirely possible by the end of the day one of those two candidates may have dropped out. the only one we know who is definitely an as rishi sunak. he has enough mps, even if it goes to members, to be on the ballot.— be on the ballot. georgica tells about the detail. _ be on the ballot. georgica tells about the detail. is _ be on the ballot. georgica tells about the detail. is it _ be on the ballot. georgica tells about the detail. is it possible | about the detail. is it possible here that assuming it is just one candidate, notjust rishi sunak, then people can privately back different candidates or will we know who is supporting who? i ask you because obviously borisjohnson's campaign saying he does have that 100 but we don't know publicly yet, do we? , ., ., ., ., , do we? they are going to need names of bits on paper _ do we? they are going to need names of bits on paper to _ do we? they are going to need names of bits on paper to prove _ do we? they are going to need names of bits on paper to prove they - do we? they are going to need names of bits on paper to prove they have . of bits on paper to prove they have the numbers to reach nomination. it is no _ the numbers to reach nomination. it is no good _ the numbers to reach nomination. it is no good to— the numbers to reach nomination. it is no good tojust the numbers to reach nomination. it is no good to just say something to your local— is no good to just say something to your local paper or send a tweet. it needs— your local paper or send a tweet. it needs to _ your local paper or send a tweet. it needs to be — your local paper or send a tweet. it needs to be proven. this is the big problem _ needs to be proven. this is the big problem borisjohnson needs to be proven. this is the big problem boris johnson faces. yesterday afternoon allies were

that. and so, and the other thing is that rishi sunak is clearly ahead of mps. it is all about, you know, is as a credible threat? will boris johnson actually get to 100 as george was saying? byjohn mps haven't declared. it is by no means are given i think, even if boris johnson were to get 100 mps and it went to membership and be between rishi sunak and borisjohnson, it is not a given that it is boris johnson, but he willjust walk it. it is true is more popular than with conservative party members and i think he is a party mps. boris johnson is still a toxic brand out there, but there are conservative members that really feel that they picked him, that tory party leader, and it wasn't fair that he was pushed out by his mps. also, members, they voted for liz truss. they looked at what happened there and thought, we can't let that have been again so i don't see what is a

need for rishi sunak really. he has already been chancellor, prime minister. i would already been chancellor, prime minister. iwould be already been chancellor, prime minister. i would be very surprised if they struck a deal. essen minister. i would be very surprised if they struck a deal.— if they struck a deal. even ever deal was done, _ if they struck a deal. even ever deal was done, not _ if they struck a deal. even ever deal was done, not necessarilyj deal was done, not necessarily between rishi sunak and boris but evenif between rishi sunak and boris but even if the deal was just to allow rishi sunak to take the top job, we keep hearing that word, mandate, don't we? do you think the public about the electorate would accept the deal was done behind closed doors in a secret meeting and that is ok? ihla doors in a secret meeting and that is ok? ., ., ., ., ., , . ., is ok? no amazing a large percentage ofthe is ok? no amazing a large percentage of the population _ is ok? no amazing a large percentage of the population will— is ok? no amazing a large percentage of the population will think _ is ok? no amazing a large percentage of the population will think it - of the population will think it isn't — of the population will think it isn't 0k~ _ of the population will think it isn't ok. i was watching question time _ isn't ok. i was watching question time last— isn't ok. i was watching question time last week and there was a show of hands _ time last week and there was a show of hands and audience, virtually everyone — of hands and audience, virtually everyone says they should be a general — everyone says they should be a general election. i think rishi sunak— general election. i think rishi sunak is— general election. i think rishi sunak is probably the candidate amongst — sunak is probably the candidate amongst the three of them will be less likely to infuriate the general electorate simply because he seems to be the _ electorate simply because he seems to be the more competent and more managerial— to be the more competent and more managerial and he might bring better stability— managerial and he might bring better stability to the whole political and

yesterday, goblin opening game. he made his debut atjust 21 years old. he had been with huddersfield and went to australia because he wasn't getting gametime in the club so he has come back with a point to prove and playing some brilliant rugby and he has been writing things up for the hosts who have had another successful game because they are almost certainly through to the quarter—finals, and did so with one game to spare. still unbeaten in the tournament as they cruised to victory over france and bolton. 42-18 victory over france and bolton. 42—18 was the final score. adam reports. preparing for a party in bolton. this much more like the noise, the atmosphere this tournament is desperate to find. but nothing brings to life an occasion quite the hosts on sparkling form. and here was england. their audience was waiting. well, they didn't have to wait long. no—one has scored more for england than ryan hall. this, the first of two tries in just the opening minute. they call victor radley 'victor the inflicter�*. well, he was 'victor the assister�* —

luke thompson offered a stroll to the posts. but while he was running away with it, england weren't allowed to, france finding an energy that few had expected, wriggling their way back into it before the break. but that, for england, was quite enough of a warning — a renewed focus, a renewed force. first, elliott whitehead went storming through. a calmness, a control restored. that's before england's fans lost theirs completely. dom young is turning into the superstar of the this tournament. here, he ran the full length of the field — the blockbuster moment this occasion deserved. after criticism over empty seats, this a little more what organisers will have wanted. after criticism, at times, it wasn't as comfortable as many england fans expected but it was, crucially, the victory england needed. adam wild, bbc news, in bolton. new zealand are also on the brink of the last eight after hammering debutants jamaica 68—6. dallin watene—zelezniak scored four tries, including a hat—trick,

inside the first 19 minutes. their place in the quarterfinals will be assured if ireland beat lebanon later today. fiji recovered from losing to australia in their first game to trounce italy 60—a, scoring 10 tries on the way to that win. they will face scotland next and would likely make the knock—out stages with victory. to the rugby world cup now where, in the last few minutes, england have wrapped up a pretty comprehensive 78—0 victory over south africa in auckland. -- 75-0. it was theirfinal group game and ensures they go through to the quarterfinals as group winners. 13 tries in total, rosie galligan with a hat—trick of them. connie powell also with three. the win also ensures wales' progression into the last eight, too. england got off to a winning start at the t20 world cup, beating, afghanistan by five wickets in perth. sam curran starred with the ball for england, taking five wickets

for 10 runs as they bowled out afghanistan for just 112. it wasn't all smooth sailing for england in the chase but liam livingstone's unbeaten 29 got england over the line with 11 balls to spare. yeah, obviously not aware of that but that's great but most importantly, a fantastic win for us and a great way to start and here, it was obviously we knew that afghanistan were going to have a tough side and we would have to scrap really hard for the runs and the chase as well so the boys in the end took us there, which was good. ireland are in action in the t20 world cup against sri lanka right now, but it's been a struggle. they could only manage 128 from their innings, with the wicket of harry tector a big one for sri lanka. ireland are struggling with the ball, too. they've only taken the one wicket so far as sri lanka look to be strolling along to their target of 129. a short time ago, they were

on 75—1 after 10 overs. i will keep everyone updated in the next hour on how it develops. it is next hour on how it develops. it is the world cup _ next hour on how it develops. it is the world cup of— next hour on how it develops. ti 3 the world cup of world cups. next hour on how it develops. it is the world cup of world cups. and| next hour on how it develops. it is i the world cup of world cups. and the football world _ the world cup of world cups. and the football world cup _ the world cup of world cups. and the football world cup is _ the world cup of world cups. and the football world cup is coming - the world cup of world cups. and the football world cup is coming up - the world cup of world cups. and the football world cup is coming up so i football world cup is coming up so fourin football world cup is coming up so four in the space of a few months. i am so excited. as soon as the four in the space of a few months. t am so excited. as soon as the run—up starts... am so excited. as soon as the run-up starts... ., ., , ., starts. .. cannot help it! you will kee- starts... cannot help it! you will kee- us starts... cannot help it! you will keep us up _ starts... cannot help it! you will keep us up to — starts... cannot help it! you will keep us up to date, _ starts... cannot help it! you will keep us up to date, thank - starts... cannot help it! you will keep us up to date, thank you. | starts... cannot help it! you will- keep us up to date, thank you. let's talk weather. enrich has the details. —— ben rich. talk weather. enrich has the details. -- ben rich. another hlorious details. -- ben rich. another glorious view. _ details. -- ben rich. another glorious view. we _ details. -- ben rich. another glorious view. we had - details. -- ben rich. another glorious view. we had so - details. -- ben rich. anotheri glorious view. we had so many pictures of the northern lights that i thought i would show you a few more. it was visible across parts of scotland and northern england, our weather watchers did the job for us and sent some beautiful photos and then, we also saw some big thunderstorms that have developed and that was the scene for a weather watcher in with sussex earlier with thundery downpours a big part of the weather story for today but there will be some spells of sunshine around, all being driven by a low

pressure. very turbulent conditions in the midst of the low, this first frontal system bringing this morning's heavy rain is the centre of the law approaches, driving in more thunderstorms later. this is the radar from the last few hours. you can see where it has been really wet across the channel islands, past and four parts of south west england, further east to the south east of england, is welcome in the midlands, heavy, thundery rain right now and it has been causing some localised problems and could continue to do so as it drifts northwards through the morning with some really intense downpours for a time across parts of south east england through the next couple of hours and then, this renaljourney north, could cause localised travel destruction, but whether getting into northern scotland is a bit murky but we should see some sunshine here later and some sunshine here later and some sunshine returning further south as well. temperatures 13—18 but more thunderstorms gathering in the english channel, some gusty winds to so we will see some more intense

downpours across southern parts to take us into the evening with rain drifting across northern scotland also but i want to point out the strength of the winds through the english channel, dover street, coast of east anglia into the early hours of east anglia into the early hours of monday with gusts of 40—50 miles an hour on monday so blustery conditions. a mild start to monday for all of us and monday is well slightly drier day perhaps. we're not looking at widespread rainfall but there will be some showers, longer spells of rain in northern scotland, cloudy and went for a good part of the day in northern ireland and then elsewhere, guess, some sunny spells but some showers, some of which will be heavy and some will be thundery blowing through on quite a brisk breeze, a breezy day for many and especially windy in the northern isles in southern england and south wales but those temperatures still pretty mild actually for the time of year with 14-18 actually for the time of year with 14—18 and it will stay mild as we look further ahead. temperatures in the south could get up to 19 or 20 degrees but staying unsettled, showers or longer spells of rain at

times. 1. . ~ showers or longer spells of rain at times. 1, . ,, ., i. thank you, really nice to see this morning and please keep sending us those amazing pictures. would not be half term without getting your reign out. —— rain mac. climbing all of scotland's mountains higher than 3,000 feet is a huge lifetime goal for keen hill walkers. they're known as munros, but can you imagine scaling all 282 munro summits, by the age of 10? that's exactly what one schoolgirl has achieved after starting the challenge with her dad at just four years old. let's have a look at some of ian and quinn's memories from their climbs.

damian grammaticas reports. reporter: are you running for leadership? with well over 120 public backers among tory mps, rishi sunak is the figure with the momentum in this race. significantly, mr sunak been picking up endorsements from all wings of the party, including the right, and some who were close to boris johnson. like his former chief of staff, steve barclay, his former brexit the endorsements are a blow for borisjohnson who flew back from a caribbean holiday yesterday, hoping to engineer an unlikely political comeback. so i want to say to the millions of people... it's just three months since mrjohnson was forced to resign after ministers

quit his government in droves. he went straight to hit the phones to try to rally support. but despite the bravado, the bbc�*s count is that just over 50 mps publicly back him — well below the 100 supporters his team were claiming yesterday. among them is his former home secretary priti patel. she tweeted that mrjohnson had... the only formal candidate to have formally declare they are running is penny mordaunt. she trails, with just over 20 mps declaring they're supporting her. writing in the sunday express ms mordaunt said... this was july. borisjohnson, to the right — rishi sunak, his chancellor. later that day, mr sunak quit.

mrjohnson didn't last the week. the bbc was told the two hold talks last night. their teams wouldn't comment. so who will come out on top now? mr sunak, borisjohnson or penny mordaunt? and can any heal a divided party? let's speak now to our political correspondent, helen catt. helen, what do we know about the private talks held between borisjohnson and rishi sunak? we don't know what came out of them. is there a possibility that, by the end of today one of them would have left the raise?— left the raise? certainly we would have to wait _ left the raise? certainly we would have to wait and _ left the raise? certainly we would have to wait and see _ left the raise? certainly we would have to wait and see what - left the raise? certainly we would i have to wait and see what happens, things change quickly, all of this is happening behind closed doors at the moment so anything could happen, really. in terms of that meeting, we don't know what was said but it is pretty easy to see why the two of them might want to be talking, when rishi sunak is far ahead in mp

supporters and his on the ballot backin supporters and his on the ballot back in the summer rishi sunak won every round of votes by the mps but when it came to the membership he was beaten by liz truss and the thinking is that if borisjohnson makes it onto the ballot their members are to choose him. rishi sunak supporters are sceptical boris johnson has the 100 back as his campaign claims based on public declarations so if that is the case that would provide a strong incentive for boris johnson to that would provide a strong incentive for borisjohnson to be meeting rishi sunak, but, even if he does have those numbers, the momentum is with rishi sunak at the moment, so there is a potential challenge that if borisjohnson won the membership vote but lost a large chunk of mps who came out it support all rishi sunak you would end up with a parliamentary party could not command the confidence and we have seen what happens there. all of this is happening in the shadows over the weekend. tomorrow is money where your is time, when the candidates will have you hand over nomination papers with 100 names on them. that

is when we will really know what is happening and who is likely to be the next prime minister. fiend happening and who is likely to be the next prime minister.- happening and who is likely to be the next prime minister. and in the meantime. — the next prime minister. and in the meantime, anything _ the next prime minister. and in the meantime, anything could - the next prime minister. and in the meantime, anything could happen. the next prime minister. and in the i meantime, anything could happen as you said. a 12—year—old boy has died, after a garage wall collapsed at a house in essex. a man in his thirties was pulled from the rubble with an arm injury, but the boy died at the scene on friday night. jon ironmonger has the story. this was the desperate scene on stjohn's road captured by a passing motorist. the sudden, tragic incident drew a large emergency response and a crowd of concerned neighbours. it's understood amount of the property had been working to dismantle a garage, and had removed the roof when a freestanding wall collapsed. the man in his 30s was injured and rescued from the rubble, however, a boy of 12, who was known to the man, died at the scene, despite the best efforts of officers from a fire station which is directly next door. as you'd expect, crews from this station were among the first

on the scene after apparently hearing a woman screaming outside of the property. they used inflatable airbags to lift the wall up off the man and boy beneath it. the station manager has said it was a difficult incident to attend and those officers are being offered support. the man is being treated for his injuries in hospital, and the house has been declared safe. police are trying to find out what led the wall to collapse. the boy's death is not being treated as suspicious. jon ironmonger, bbc news. electricity has been restored in some areas of ukraine following russian air strikes targeting power infrastructure. nearly one third of power stations and energy generating infrastructure have been destroyed since last monday. let's speak to hugo bachega who is in kyiv. as we said, very specific targets in these attacks, from russia. what impact is that having? be said one third of

power generating facilities off—line, is power being restored by now? off-line, is power being restored by now? , ., ., ., off-line, is power being restored by now? ., ., ., , now? good morning. the authorities are sa inc now? good morning. the authorities are saying this _ now? good morning. the authorities are saying this is _ now? good morning. the authorities are saying this is russia's _ now? good morning. the authorities are saying this is russia's strategy i are saying this is russia's strategy as it faces military defeat on the battlefield. it is attacking electricity infrastructure across the country ahead of winter, so yesterday, we saw a wave of attacks targeting powerfacilities yesterday, we saw a wave of attacks targeting power facilities across the country. the authorities said around 1.5 million households were without power. electricity has been restored in some parts of the country but work is still under way, to resume services in other parts of the country. as you can see, it is a very cold and rainy morning here in kyiv, and this is the concern here how the system is going to cope as the temperatures drop. the authorities are saying that one third of the power stations here have been targeted by russia in recent weeks. we heard yesterday from the senior adviser to president zelensky accusing russia are trying

to create any refugee crisis by targeting energy infrastructure here in ukraine. last night president zelensky said that these were acts of terrorism, and said these attacks would not stop the progress of the ukrainian army. so this is what is happening here, in the country with the electricity system. in the south we are watching what is happening in kherson, the russian appointed officials have announced evacuation officials have announced evacuation of officials as they say that ukrainian forces are preparing a large offensive to retake the city, one of the larger cities under russian occupation. like i thank you, hugo bachega in kyiv for us. 90% of uk schools will have run out of money by the next academic year, because of increased bills, according to headteachers. 13 national education associations have written an open letter to conservative mps warning that the average secondary school will be facing a shortfall of up to £250,000 by 2024. the department of education says

schools will benefit from the energy bill relief scheme, as well as an increase in funding. the founder of the red bull energy drinks empire, dietrich mateschitz, has died at the age of 78. the austrian businessman discovered the drink in 1984 and following the brand's success, he set up a formula 1 racing team which has become one of the leading forces in the sport. ahead of the us grand prix yesterday, the principal of red bull racing said the team was determined to "do their best for him". ava nti west coast train services are due to return to normal this morning, after yesterday's walk—out over pay and conditions. the disruption meant greater manchester mayor andy burnham and liverpool city region mayor steve rotheram were late for a press conference about "rail chaos" in the north of england. davinia ramos has more. you couldn't make it up. the mayors of liverpool and manchester running late to talk about the current rail chaos because their train was cancelled,

and they've had enough. we're not second—class citizens in the north. we shouldn't have a second class rail system, and it's causing misery to passengers. enough is enough. andy burnham and steve rotheram want more cash for train operators in the north of england to help deal with huge cancellations and delays. it comes as a number of avanti west coast rail services were cut on saturday due to strike action by train managers. it meant only one train per hour ran from london to liverpool, manchester and glasgow, with the firm apologising for any inconvenience it caused. and earlier this week, transpennine express cancelled around 55 services in just one day. it's no surprise that passengers i spoke to are fed up. i travel to manchester every day and i now take the car. so, yeah, yeah, i wish i didn't have to because of the environment but i take the car. because you can't rely on it? i can't rely on it. i'm travelling to london today

and usually that's about, i don't know, 2.5 hours. on the train today it's going to take me about four cos i've got to crewe, then derby, then down to london, and tomorrow i'm doing the same. trains are only running once an hour |so me and my friend just used a car| instead of using public transport. i'm in uni and work in town, and my 8am is cancelled every day. tra nspennine express apologised, blaming the disruption on staffing issues and training backlogs. the department for transport says it's working closely with train operators to ensure disruptions are kept to a minimum. but there are concerns that the situation is having a huge impact on the economy in the north—west. it's taking visitors out of the city like this or like manchester at the weekend. people give up and coming into the city and having a night out because they get fear getting towards the end of the night and their train home gets cancelled. next month, there'll be further strikes and passengers are being warned, yet again, to expect problems. davina ramos, bbc news.

that is a story that is not going away. it is 13 minutes past eight. jodie whittaker will make herfinal appearance as doctor who this evening, in a 90—minute special on bbc one. the actor made history in 2017 as the first woman to be cast in the role and in tonight's episode she'll take on three of the doctor's best known enermies. ncuti gatwa will return as the new time lord next year. we are in for a treat, then. they have something up their sleeves tonight. this is such an iconic part of the bbc�*s history. a must watch for the season. ben promised more northern lights, have they delivered? i northern lights, have they delivered?— northern lights, have they delivered? . , , delivered? i have, easily pleased! yes, delivered? i have, easily pleased! yes. good — delivered? i have, easily pleased! yes, good morning. _ delivered? i have, easily pleased! yes, good morning. we _ delivered? i have, easily pleased! yes, good morning. we have - delivered? i have, easily pleased! | yes, good morning. we have some fantastic pictures from last night, across parts of scotland and northern england. the northern lights, the aurora borealis was

visible. you need clear skies to see it and some better watch as they get those clear skies. that was the picture in aberdeenshire. this one, from angus. some beautiful scenes. this morning the skies lighting up for a different reason across the south of the uk were some quite intense thunderstorms. you may well have been broken up by those. we will see thundery downpours continuing through today, albeit with some spells of sunshine. low pressure in charge of the weather at the moment. this frontal system is pushing rain northwards at the moment and as the centre of that low approaches that will drive further thunderstorms. let's look back over the last few hours, because that's where we have had some very wet weather. the channel islands, south—west england, wales, and some of the most intense storm spreading across the midlands and the south—east. this is spell of wet weather is moving quite quickly northwards but it could hang around for long enough to give some localised surface water flooding and poor conditions on the roads. if you

are going to head out there that in mind, that rain across northern england into northern ireland, northern scotland a little bit drier, often quite cloudy but i think we will see some sunshine here, and some sunny skies returning for the self as well. then, some further thunderstorms returning by the end of the day. a lot going on today, 14—18 celsius, mild for the time of year. this evening, more thunderstorms in the south with this band of rain drifting northwards across scotland, and the winds will strengthen. let's zoom in on the south—east corner. the winds will follow through the english channel, the dover straits, up into the, maybe 55 miles per hour gusts and places so very blustery overnight, mild for all of us, and into tomorrow, not as widely wet as today but there will be some wet weather, rain in the north of scotland, cloud and rain for northern ireland and elsewhere, it is a sunshine and

showers day. some of those showers will be heavy and thundery, blowing along by a brisk breeze. quite windy, particularly in the northern isles, and across southern england and parts of south wales. again, temperatures, 15—18 celsius, that is a few degrees above the norm and in a few degrees above the norm and in a selection of locations across the uk, this sums up the story for all of us. there will be showers or longer spells of rain with some spells of sunshine in between but it stays mild and in fact, in the south, we could see temperatures into the low 20s. there is a lot going on today, ben and nina, back to you. going on today, ben and nina, back to ou. . ~ going on today, ben and nina, back to ou. ., ,, ,~. going on today, ben and nina, back to ou. ., ,, i. ., , to you. thank you for guiding us throuhh to you. thank you for guiding us through that. — to you. thank you for guiding us through that, see _ to you. thank you for guiding us through that, see you _ to you. thank you for guiding us through that, see you later. - to you. thank you for guiding us| through that, see you later. take to you. thank you for guiding us i through that, see you later. take it one day at a time with the weather. now on breakfast, it's time for click.

nearly 7,000 people in the uk right now need organ transplants. sometimes the wait for these lifelines can be long and agonising, and not everyone survives them. we clearly need more donors. but 3d printing might be able to offer a solution. yeah, scientists are developing a method to create organs from living tissue, which can then be transplanted into patients who need them. shiona mccallum has been to gothenburg in sweden to find out more. it's been more than 70 years since the first successful organ transplant — a kidney. the chances of further operations of this kind being conducted... people who want to donate their organs can have their names put on a computer by using, for example, a new type of driving licence

application form. and thanks to the donor register, heart, lungs and livers are now among the 100,000 organs replaced every year. when you lose someone and they've given that gift, that huge gift, you are immensely proud of them. but even now, it remains a difficult wait for patients. it tookjust over a year for me to get my transplant, and i deteriorated a lot during that time and i was constantly in and out of hospital, getting weaker and weaker, so, yes, it was a terrible and terrifying time. here in gothenburg, one team are trying to solve this, and they're using technology that's a bit like a 3d printer. theiraim — well, it's to grow organs from cells here in this lab, no donor necessary. today we are going to look at printing skin.

the skin is composed of different layers. 0k. and every layer has different types of cells in combination. it is the human body's largest organ, but even a small skin model requires millions of cells. they're mixed into different bio—inks for the machine to choose between. we really design a code what tells the printer what to print, when, and in which structure. it's a lot more visible than i expected with the naked eye. a hollow blood vessel structure has been layered inside this one, and a syringe—like printhead has a different purpose. so, you can actually print cells or hair follicles to really replicate the skin. at this stage, it kind of looks like a bit of toothpaste, but actually, it's seriously complicated cells in here. while 3d printed skin could be applied

in surgical grafts, drug and cosmetics testing, the cells have to mature first. this is where we culture the samples we've printed. they are kept in incubators for several weeks, and this tray is about a week old. the tough part, which is mimicking the top of our skin, is on top. a mix of proteins and nutrient molecules is fed in and the waste is removed, all while being closely monitored. the beauty with this microscope is you can even watch your sample through an ipad, so it's no longer looking through those small eye things. green dots for living cells, red for dead. so, there's not many dead cells here that you can see. no, which is a very good sign. close analysis of the end results is needed to fine—tune. cellink has been printing cancer tumours so that patients could receive personalised treatments without enduring drug trials themselves. they've also made liver models

for drug screening campaigns and are helping beauty brands become animal cruelty—free thanks to testing on lab—grown skin. in this gothenburg hospital, researchers plan to put bioprinted cartilage in patients with muscle issues in just a few years. first patients is of course the sports injuries, because they will probably heal better, or at least we think so, but also, for elderly patients or patients that suffer from osteoarthritis. we get very nice cartilage tissue that have healing capacities, so we are very optimistic. further studies are needed to prove the methods are safe, but it could save time and money. it can actually print what the damage looked like before. we can actually print it directly into the knee, probably, in the future. we can mass—produce it, i mean, you can start with a printer and then go home and make thousands of copies! and more complex procedures are coming down the line. what do you feel

is the ultimate aim? many people die waiting in the line for organ transplantation, so what we're hoping is this technology in the future will actually be able to provide these organs. how far off are we? i think 15, 20 years is when we might see it in clinic. simpler organs can be seen very, very soon. but if we're took a full organ, internal organ, that will take some time. one of my oldest friends is alive thanks to a donor liver. to not have that year, over year wait, to know that they would potentially be growing an organ for me, you know, if that's all it took, i would have been in a stronger place to have the operation in the first place. it stops a lot of the worry, i would imagine, because you know it's there. and, like, this waiting game that you don't know when it's your turn. would you feel differently about having an organ

that, you know, didn't mean that someone had to die? you're waiting for somebody to die and you're waiting for that person to be in the right blood group, the right size. you know, i couldn't have a 6'8" massively obese gentleman because it wouldn't have fitted in my abdomen. so if you're able to eradicate all of that and then almost grow — home—grow your own to the exact perfect fit, yeah, i think it would be life—changing for thousands of people. there's a way to go yet, but the first steps from skin cells to mending muscles are promising. i won't be the only one hoping lab—grown organs could cut the queue to life—saving operations. i've been to meet a company hoping to create affordable hollywood—quality avatars with your mobile in minutes.

shrinking the hollywood—sized setup and budget might make a booth like this possible anywhere, whether it's to create a gaming avatar, in a make—up department for skin analysis, for influencers flogging stuff, or dare i say it, for the ever—threatened metaverse. lumirithmic�*s setup here just consists of a series of ipads, iphones and stands, so the cost of creating this is just the price of those items. you can also use android devices. once the images are all taken at the same time, they're stitched together to create a high—resolution picture. in a couple of seconds, i'm scanned down to a tenth of a millimetre's detail. an imperial college spin—out, experience and tech are brought together to initially perfect stills from all angles, recreating any lighting before moving on to producing video.

i've been doing research on facial appearance capture for over 15 years in academia, first at the university of southern california, where i worked on hollywood scale scanning of actors' faces for movies such as avatar. most scanning techniques only captures geometry and not the appearance. and here, because we focus on high—quality appearance capture, the resolution comes from the reproduction of that appearance in a realistic manner in a 3d rendering. here, we've got the 2d renders. this one looks a bit like those images where you see the sun damage to your skin. what we're doing here is actually with controlled lighting conditions analysing your skin's reflectants and breaking it up into a constituent colour texture map, a shine map, a shape map, which captures all of your fine skin pores and wrinkle detail and then combining all of that... wrinkles — how dare you! i know! laughs you're a very brave man. ..and combining all of that

with computer graphics rendering, and the skin will react. and in case you wondered, those weird rectangles in my eyes are the reflection of the ipad. onto the 3d images now, which thankfully feel a bit kinder than the previous overly analytical close—ups. and there's one striking feature. the lighting is quite something. and to think that that's virtual, because that really looks like we're moving throughout times of the day. the ability to create believable shadows is where the realism comes from, even in an image that isn't itself animated. so getting this perfected should lead the way to better video versions down the line. although, what's happened to my ear? but the holy grail is being able to do all of that with one of these. and the company has cracked it — the pictures

are lower resolution and they won't let me film the process, but i can show you the result. there's still a huge amount of detail here. my hair goes a little bit funny as we change the lighting, but what's the actual difference in resolution? this resolution is about 2k and then the full desktop setup you've seen has a resolution of about 4k and, as you can see, the quality is still preserved and the fine skin details and also the geometry. the resolution is clearly good enough for most consumer applications. i don't think i'd want it to be any better, but... definitely further work required to be done in terms of cutting out smooth silhouettes. and what's most challenging there is not the body or the face, but the human hair. the hair silhouettes are very fuzzy and they're not discrete, and so this is where better algorithms will have to be created. even hollywood has the same issue, but it does have people for that. the scanning process usually does a pretty similarjob that we are doing.

it's — the hair would then be modelled back in most of the hollywood rendering systems using artistic modelling processes for hair. so hair is its own research problem in some sense! so, these avatars may not be perfect yet, but they do seem to be heading in the right direction. and that's it for the short version of the programme. the full—length show can be found on iplayer. thanks for watching. we'll see you soon. bye— bye.

hello, this is breakfast with ben thompson and nina warhurst. here's how the leadership contest will play out over the coming days. we could find out who's replacing liz truss as early as tomorrow. conservative mps have until 2pm on monday to nominate their preferred candidate. each one needs at least 100 nominations. if only one of them achieves that, they'll be declared prime minister later tomorrow. if three candidates get 100 nominations, mps will vote. a choice between the final two would then be made by tory party members voting online. if that happens, the new party leader and prime minister will be declared on friday. ben boulos is at a market in east london for us this morning. ben, what are you hearing from people there?

so from people there? many intricate details. it is happening so many intricate details. it is happening all over again in a slightly different way. what are people looking for? what might they hope for in the new prime minister. ben, what are you hearing from people there? again, iam again, i am going to say you shouldn't have. i again, i am going to say you shouldn't have.— again, i am going to say you shouldn't have. i tell you what, someone _ shouldn't have. i tell you what, someone presumably - shouldn't have. i tell you what, someone presumably will - shouldn't have. i tell you what, someone presumably will be i shouldn't have. i tell you what, - someone presumably will be sensing victory by the time we get to that key day later this week. i tell you, these smell absolutely stunning. we have lavender here and i am down here at columbia road flower market in east london. you can see early morning shoppers out trying to snap up morning shoppers out trying to snap up the best blooms. this market has been around for over 150 years. william gladstone was prime minister when it was first set up. the question is who will be prime minister this time next week? we will hearfrom some minister this time next week? we will hear from some of the people here in a moment but first, we have

been getting reaction elsewhere in the uk. i think that we have lost faith in all the politicians. labour or conservative. and i think it is time that we need to get a bit more stance within the country again. i have been in spain- the last week on holiday. all the spanish people _ and german people keep saying, "what is wrong with your country?" well, have been talking nothing else... it is the backstabbing. and that is the problem. the energy bills at the moment. that is what is crippling us. our quarterly has have gone up from £270 to 990 for three months. for a little shop like this, it's difficult. is it electric and gas? it'sjust electric, we have got no gas, so it is crippling us big time, stuff like that needs sorting out. some of the concerns and thoughts of voters. let's find out what voters here in this part of east london think. you both work at the market,

is a small number of people with epilepsy who are eligible for surgery but that can take several years. to be assessed. even then, if you are suitable for conventional invasive surgery it is not always an easy decision to make. because it can come with risks even if the positives outweigh the risks. it can affect speech, movement, movement and sometimes be fatal as well. it's and sometimes be fatal as well. it's a very difficult decision if you have epilepsy and are told that url is for surgery. it is a very difficult decision to make. for some people, surgery has been an absolute life—saver and it has meant their seizures have reduced or are controlled completely. for many, it's a difficult decision to make. people with epilepsy are not always

suitable for conventional surgery so this therapy is noninvasive, it promises quicker recovery times as well. hopefully this can improve not just outcomes but quality of life. explain how it works, the laser therapy. it sounds very straightforward. it therapy. it sounds very straightforward.- therapy. it sounds very straightforward. it is very exciting- _ straightforward. it is very exciting. it _ straightforward. it is very exciting. it is _ straightforward. it is very exciting. it is a _ straightforward. it is very exciting. it is a small- straightforward. it is very l exciting. it is a small probe straightforward. it is very - exciting. it is a small probe with lasers and that is inserted into the tip of the skull and the patient is put into mri scanner and surgeons can use the probe to target where the seizures are happening in a much safer way that is not potentially damaging to other vital tissues around the areas of the brain. this is what we are hoping it will promise, really exciting results. a small number of people stand to benefit at the moment but it's really encouraging to see how it

the t20 cricket world cup is also taking place right now and ireland have been hammered by sri lanka in their opening super 12 match. they could only manage 128 from their innings, with the wicket of harry tector a big one for sri lanka. and the irish struggled with the ball too, with kusal mendis reaching an unbeaten 68, including a 6 to finish off the chase, with sri lanka winning by nine wickets. england got off to a winning start at the t20 world cup, beating afghanistan by five wickets in perth. sam curran starred with the ball for england, taking 5 wickets for 10 runs as they bowled out afghanistan for just 112. it wasn't all smooth sailing for england in the chase, but liam livingstone's unbeaten 29 got england over the line with 11 balls to spare. yeah, obviously i'm not aware of that, that's obviously great, but most importantly, a fantastic win for us, great way to start, and, yeah, it was, we knew that afghanistan

were going to be that type of side, that we would have to scrap really hard for those runs and that chase as well, so the boys, in the end, took us home, which is good. three world cups. and the countdown to qatar. busy winter. busy year. we would have struggled. here's ben with a look at this morning's weather. more northern lights. we arejust more northern lights. we are just as more northern lights. we are 'ust as bus over more northern lights. we are 'ust as busy here i more northern lights. we are 'ust as busy over here as i more northern lights. we are 'ust as busy over here as they * more northern lights. we are 'ust as busy over here as they are _ more northern lights. we are 'ust as busy over here as they are in h busy over here as they are in sports. a lot going on for us as well but let's look at last night. it was a stunning display of the northern lights for some parts of scotland and northern england. our weather watchers sent us some beautiful pictures. if you want to sign up for weather watchers you can find out how on the bbc weather website. this picture arguably not quite so pretty but it shows what has been going on in the south of

the uk so far this morning. we have had some really heavy rain some thundery downpours, it has caused localised flooding and some of those showers and storms will continue through the day. driven by low pressure. this first system is what's been bringing the rain but as the centre approaches that will cause things to destabilise. more thunderstorms will pop up. this is what has happened so far. under enlightening drifting north, still got thunderstorms at the moment up into east anglia. that is still where we might see some of the heaviest rain over the next couple of hours but also wet through the midlands, north wales, increasingly wet across the north of england. that rain will spread into northern ireland, southern and central parts of scotland as we go into the afternoon. northern scotland will often be cloudy but there will be sunny spells. some sunny spells following on into england and wales but here comes our next clutch of thunderstorms to the far south.

temperatures are higher than they should be at this time of year. this evening this band of rain drifts north across scotland. more thunderstorms in the south and it is going to turn windy for some. let's zoom in because this is going to funnel into essex and sussex with gusts of 30 up to 55 mph so a blustery night for some, mild for all and then for tomorrow, probably not as widely wet as today but there will be rain around across the north of scotland, for a time in northern ireland and elsewhere sunshine and showers. showers heavy and thundery, blown along on a breeze, especially windy in the northern isles and south of england and south wales. those temperatures still higher than they should be. 14—18. we stick with

mild or warm weather through the week. temperatures up into the low 20s. not bad for late october. it stays unsettled with showers or long spells of rain at times. that is more than enough from me for the morning. more than enough from me for the mornin:. ,, . ., , more than enough from me for the mornin:. ,, .. , morning. never. especially if you have those _ morning. never. especially if you have those amazing _ morning. never. especially if you have those amazing pictures. - morning. never. especially if you. have those amazing pictures. they are stunning- _ have those amazing pictures. they are stunning. thank _ have those amazing pictures. iie: are stunning. thank you have those amazing pictures. i“ie: are stunning. thank you so have those amazing pictures. “iierg are stunning. thank you so much have those amazing pictures. i“ieg are stunning. thank you so much to our weather watchers for sending the men. i have never seen the northern lights. stillan men. i have never seen the northern lights. still an ambition of mine. wejust want you lights. still an ambition of mine. we just want you for your pictures. i know the truth. idol we just want you for your pictures. i know the truth.— we'd all like to have a perfectly manicured, luscious green garden lawn, but the upkeep can be enough to make some people consider the alternative option. artificial grass is becoming more and more popular, but with concerns over sustainability, the choice between fake or natural is causing a "turf war". crispin rolfe has more.

deep breaths. every single patch... could be used to do really good things. or it could be used to become plastic landfill. natural lawn or artificial grass. for those living at this set of new homes, the answer is simple. all the people in these bungalows are elderly, so it is great. all you need is a sweeping brush and a hosepipe and that's it. so, when we got this bungalow, the first thing my daughter- said was, "oh, great, - no more doing the grass." tomorrow's world doesn't have gardening correspondent, so for today, it will have to be me.

and our word for all those reluctant husbands breaking their backs over the weeds, your troubles are over. it's this stuff. plastic grass. of course, back then, it must have seemed like the newjerusalem for england's green and pleasant land, but now, with environmentalists warning against the spread of the grass, we asked top yorkshire gardener paul cook what he makes of it. these are all new builds. what do you make of this? every single one has fake grass on its front lawn. yes, i mean, it's something we have seen in new developments where it gives the impression of a green space without the benefits. and it is quite frustrating. you can see why from the point of view of maintenance of these areas, people think, well, it is a quick fix and it gives people the enjoyment of a green space without having to look after them, but for the environment, it is not a good look and it's not sustainable. so is grass as popular as it once was? well, the latest statistics would suggest not, with 25% of homeowners having turned part of their garden into a driveway,

10% having changed some of their lawn for artificial turf, even though 57% believe that could affect the environment. artificial grass, are you in favour or against? i am definitely in favour. why? because i am a lazy so—and—so i at heart and i don't want to be out there cutting the grass - when i could be sitting inside. you don't have to cut the grass, do you? and it is just permanently there and looks nice, doesn't it? the environment was here before we were, so respect it. the advantages, then, are obvious. the disadvantages perhaps less so, damaging diversity and introducing more plastics into our ecosystems. and yet, what does the industry say in the defence of artificial grass? is it environmentally friendly? that's the concern. as we speak, we are not far away from a grass that - will be fully recyclable. it's not far away at all. and yet, with campaigners calling

for planning permission to be required in order to put down plastic grass, this is a debate over what is easy versus what's environmental. ican i can see you are sold. i think it is an abomination. _ i can see you are sold. i think it is an abomination. will- i can see you are sold. i think it is an abomination. will i - i can see you are sold. i think it is an abomination. will i can . i can see you are sold. i think it| is an abomination. will i can see wh the is an abomination. will i can see why the low— is an abomination. will i can see why the low maintenance - is an abomination. will i can see why the low maintenance would | is an abomination. will i can see i why the low maintenance would be appealing. fans of netflix drama the crown don't have much longer to wait until the highly anticipated fifth series and it's already surrounded by controversy. this week saw both damejudi dench and sirjohn major criticise the dramatisation and accuracy of the show, leading netflix to include an "inspired by real events" disclaimer, with the trailer�*s release. let's take a look.

in light of the events of the last 12 months... ..perhaps i have more to reflect on than most. the royal family is in genuine crisis. have royal scandals damaged the country's reputation? - the house of windsor should be binding the nations together. setting and example of idealised family life. it's a situation that cannot help but affect the stability of the country. for years, i have called for a more modern monarchy that reflects the world outside. i don't think it is my behaviour that is threatening its survival. you, as future king, have a duty. people will never understand how it has really been for me. _

it looks great but the question is whether it is accurate, whether it is a drama or supposedly some sort of dramatic documentary. i suppose thatis of dramatic documentary. i suppose that is the issue. we'rejoined by the host of the daily express podcast royal round up, pandora forsyth. good morning. thank you for being with us. what do you make of it? be disclaimer is on it a lot of people have been calling for for a long time. inspired by those events. is that the point of this? is it not just about a good bit of telly? yes. just about a good bit of telly? yes, we have to — just about a good bit of telly? yes, we have to remember _ just about a good bit of telly? yes, we have to remember it _ just about a good bit of telly? yes, we have to remember it is - just about a good bit of telly? i'eis we have to remember it is netflix, it is hollywood. there is going to be drama attached and it is not a documentary. it is not portrayed as that in the trailer. it is obviously actors and actresses. it is not the royal family. actors and actresses. it is not the royalfamily. that actors and actresses. it is not the royal family. that is what we have to remember. it is based on two events so it has the skeletal form of what has happened but no one other than senior advisers in the

royalfamily other than senior advisers in the royal family itself or in the room when these events happen so we have to take it with a pinch of salt. this is always been the case watching a dramatisation like this or a drama like this, it will impact your perception of something that did happen. but why this series have they felt the need to make that edition? i they felt the need to make that edition? .. they felt the need to make that edition? ~' ., . ., edition? i think the fact that obviously — edition? i think the fact that obviously it _ edition? i think the fact that obviously it has _ edition? i think the fact that obviously it has so - edition? i think the fact that obviously it has so much - obviously it has so much controversy. we have seen massive names in the industry talk about it and everyone is so divided over it. they have had to clarify things. also, it is ever creeping towards present day. we have got a new king, he is six weeks into his new rain and he has taken the forefront of most of the big headlines of the series and obviously our new queen as well. so that is why people are so divided over the series. [30 as well. so that is why people are so divided over the series. do you think we are _ so divided over the series. do you think we are more _ so divided over the series. do you think we are more animated - so divided over the series. do you| think we are more animated about so divided over the series. do you - think we are more animated about it? we care about it more because the

series is now in living memory. it features events that many of us will remember versus may be 19405 an 505 and 605 when we were getting very different stories that not a lot of people will have lived through? absolutely. even before netflix did this particular series people are still very much divided and opinionated over those specific events so it is understandable that people now seeing it played out to millions of people on the biggest digital streaming service have got something to say about it. whether you follow the royal family or not, it will be very, very difficult to stairway from the headlines once it is released. they have only released a couple of minutes trailer and it's already causing chaos. it has just happened at the time where we have got a new king and he is having to

battle a new reign as well. lots of people are talking about it and it has got the biggest actors and actresses in it.— actresses in it. let's put this controversial _ actresses in it. let's put this controversial issue - actresses in it. let's put this controversial issue aside. i actresses in it. let's put this | controversial issue aside. you actresses in it. let's put this - controversial issue aside. you have had eyes on the series, is it still great telly?— great telly? yes, it is still great tell and great telly? yes, it is still great telly and i _ great telly? yes, it is still great telly and i will _ great telly? yes, it is still great telly and i will still _ great telly? yes, it is still great telly and i will still be _ great telly? yes, it is still great telly and i will still be watching | telly and i will still be watching it like many thousands of people. just take it with a pension of salt. really nice to see you. maybe that is the point. getting us talk about it is what they want. that's what the trailer is for, commenters created buzz and we will probably watch it. thank you for being with us. that new series on netflix starts very soon. you can't help it even now you know it's not a documentary,... it even now you know it's not a documentary,...— even now you know it's not a documentary, . .. documentary,... it is a good bit of
