this is bbc news, the headlines: a new wave of violence has broken out in iran — with security forces firing on anti—government protestors. iranian state media says one person has been shot dead in the south—eastern city of zahedan — while“; people, including members of the security forces, were wounded. police in california have charged a man with the attempted murder of paul pelosi — the husband of the us house of representatives speaker, nancy pelosi. mr pelosi is recovering in hospital from serious injuries after a man broke into their home and attacked the 82—year—old. the two candidates in the running to be brazil's next president — jair bolsonaro and luiz inacio lula da silva, have faced—off, in an all—or—nothing televised debate. the meeting was the last chance for the candidates to reach

millions of brazilians before sunday's run—off vote. now on bbc news, click. this week we are guarding against danger and disaster. shona is in sweden to put the first average female crash test dummies through their paces. 0k. dummies through their paces. ok. i am dummies through their paces. 0k. iam ready dummies through their paces. ok. i am ready to be rescued

through to design. how big a problem is this?— problem is this? a huge problem- _ problem is this? a huge problem. a _ problem is this? a huge problem. a structural i problem is this? a huge - problem. a structural problem that exists in every part of the world. this idea that if we just cater to men that will sort of suffice, that men are somehow the default gender neutral setting for humanity. designing for them is like designing things for humans and we forget the fact that half the population are not men. it seems a big thing to forget. why has this happened. anatomical illustrations, the male body was presented as the default body and that is just carried on through history, that we present men as if they are gender neutral and i think the problem is, really, that we do not acknowledge we do that so we do not think that we are making a mistake. so if you ask if we test on male and female bodies, most people don't know

to be no phone. some men want a smaller phone. but what i am talking about here are averages and it is difficult to separate what people want from social norms and social hierarchies. and so what you often find is that because, historically, the so—called female version of things has been seen as the worst thing, many women do not want to go for what is seen as a female version of something. electric cars were around right from the beginning, pretty much, but petrol cars one out because they were seen as the more manly thing and electric cars were presented as something for ladies. when it comes to _ something for ladies. when it comes to something - something for ladies. when it comes to something like - something for ladies. when it comes to something like a i something for ladies. when it i comes to something like a smart phone, i like to have a big smart phone and i'm not bothered about the size of a vr headset but there are more fit serious issues here. this headset but there are more fit serious issues here.— serious issues here. this is a systemic— serious issues here. this is a systemic issue _ serious issues here. this is a systemic issue and _ serious issues here. this is a systemic issue and when i serious issues here. this is a systemic issue and when you talk about a systemic issue it

well, here, in southern wales, a new solution is being trialled. 0ne a new solution is being trialled. one good thing is, with had comms with cardiff, it's just happened, they will put their own notice are two other aviators that there will be some sort of modified aircraft system flown from this position. now it sounds like they're talking about a drone here but it's just any drone. it's an ip 67 waterproof motor drone, so we can fly but it can also float on water. the camera is waterproof, everything about it is waterproof, it can fly in the rain, it can fly much higher wind speeds than the typical drone you can sit on the water, float and take off again. the water, float and take off aaain. �* ., �* , the water, float and take off aaain. �* ., �*, ., ., , again. but that's not all. this drone has — again. but that's not all. this drone has a _ again. but that's not all. this drone has a hidden _ again. but that's not all. this drone has a hidden feature i again. but that's not all. this i drone has a hidden feature that is crucial in its mission to save lives, and ability to not only carry budget to release. you've got the payload release mechanism, you can hook up a buoyancy aid to that in

remotely release it out to sea. put that over your head so it gets your arms through. find gets your arms through. and that's exactly _ gets your arms through. and that's exactly what _ gets your arms through. and that's exactly what will i that's exactly what will come to see in action today in a simulated rescue with me is the willing guinea pig.— willing guinea pig. there you to. 0k, willing guinea pig. there you go. ok, this — willing guinea pig. there you go. ok, this is _ willing guinea pig. there you go. ok, this is cold. - willing guinea pig. there you go. ok, this is cold. it's i go. ok, this is cold. it's really cold _ go. ok, this is cold. it's really cold and - go. ok, this is cold. it's really cold and i've i go. ok, this is cold. it's really cold and i've got. go. ok, this is cold. it's. really cold and i've got to go. ok, this is cold. it's i really cold and i've got to get into that. now there are of course situations where you wouldn't need the drone. for example, if i was close to the shore. in that case, lifeguards could just dive straight in and rescue me out here, hundreds of metres from shore and win every second counts, the drone can beat even the fastest of swimmers in a race. 0k! beat even the fastest of swimmers in a race. ok! i'm ready to be rescued right now!

the rescue drone can carry multiple types of buoyancy aids ranging from a tube boy like you see here to one that instantly inflates upon hitting the water. we simulated the rescue because you need special permission to drop things out of the sky, and this expands with a carbon dioxide canister, much you —— much like you would see in those fizzy drink machines. this flotation device, so it means i can hold onto this until i am rescued. now, safely

back on dry land, i wanted to find out more about the drive behind this project and whether this would lead to lifeguards being replaced by drones. technology is new to our industry and i think people embrace it to support the lifeguards and lifesavers, it could be phenomenal. it's not there to replace people, that's really important. we need lifeguards, we need humans to do rescues, to resuscitate, give cpr, first aid and that kind of stuff and it goes for everyone. i think this will enhance traditional lifeguarding. i think we absolutely do need lifeguards with this technology will allow them to maybe do theirjob better because they have more visibility and they can get to places quicker.— places quicker. this life-saving - places quicker. this life-saving system | places quicker. this i life-saving system will be life—saving system will be trialed early next year. at £900, the training doesn't come cheap but apparently it will be funded by the beach owner or manager. this probably quite a different use cases.— different use cases. drone obviously _ different use cases. drone obviously is _ different use cases. drone obviously is great - different use cases. drone obviously is great for i different use cases. drone i obviously is great for dropping equipment but it also has other

more intense and more frequent, the risk of wildfires will increase two. the question is, can technology help to get wildfires under control earlier? laura goodwin investigates. it only takes one spark to start a wildfire that can spread for miles and raged for days but with climate changing and then becoming drier, it's providing the perfect conditions for wildfires to blaze and even in traditionally cooler parts of the world, wildfires are becoming more unpredictable. clouds are dominating the skyline today but back in the summer, it was very different. it had been particularly dry and this piece of moorland in west calderjust outside of edinburgh earned for three days. it took 60 firefighters and i2 appliances

sunshine, there will be rain at times too. we have low pressure anchored to the west of the uk at the moment. throwing across us at times, these rain—bearing weather fronts, even when they're not moving in, there are showers around. but all the while, with some changing for now is the air coming up from the south, keeping temperatures well above the average for this stage of october. another spell of rain moving in overnight and into the mornings through wales and parts of england and actually a little bit cooler first thing, compared with friday morning. some spots in single figures. through the day, this rain is moving its way northwards. through the morning, northern england, eventually reaching northern ireland and through the afternoon spreading north through scotland. not reaching the far north until the evening where some sunshine hangs on for longest. behind it, further heavy showers from northern ireland, northern england, wales and the southwest. much of the midlands, especially towards east anglia and the southeast having a fine afternoon and this is where there will be some hazy sunshine in the southeast, lifting temperatures into the low 20s. 22 celsius in london compared with an average of ia. rain into northern scotland and the evening somes showers pushing eastwardss we go into to saturday night and into sunday morning. at night, of course remember to push the clocks back to mark

the end of british summertime. and as for temperatures, a little bit higher again as we start off on sunday. there's a lingering weatherfront, east anglia and the south— east during sunday. that will make for a cloudier, cooler day and will be some spells of rain in there with that weather front at times. elsewhere, it's sunny spells and there will be showers. and if you catch these, they are likely to be heavy, could come with a rumble of thunder, perhaps some hail as well and gusty winds. it's a windier day on sunday and especially around western coastal areas, may be some gusts of 50 miles an hour or so. so some coastal gales around here and temperatures into the mostly middle to upper teens. there are weather changes on the way next week and we will start to see areas of low pressure more weather fronts coming in and indeed, it gradually turns weather to the end of the day across the southwest of the uk initially. so, more of the same in regards to windy weather next week with the rain at times.

but this is going to be significant, temperatures gradually heading downwards. closer to the average for early november, just the average but it will feel very different compared with what we've had.
