we�*ll talk about that over the course of the morning, we have some guests to talk about the crisis in the nhs. it is time for an update on the weather now. the first of the morning. chris is the man. it looks like some dark and moody skies? indeed, that is how we will start the day, wet and windy this morning. but, the worst of the rain will clear through, but, the worst of the rain will clearthrough, brightening but, the worst of the rain will clear through, brightening up quickly with a mixture of sunny spells and passing heavy showers, later today. spells and passing heavy showers, latertoday. no spells and passing heavy showers, later today. no pressure family and charge pushing the band of cloud across the country were fairly heavy falls of rain, particularly across western areas, more speckled cloud you can see in the west is what is going to brighten the weather later today. tomorrow�*s ran accumulation — around 15 millimetres around southern wales and south—west england, a risk of low cloud surface flooding, and it is windy. in the

last hour we have seen gusts of 65 mph around barry head, near brixton in the south—west. england. the windiest spots are in inland. this will push east, that is when we will see the brighter weather moving in from the west, lots of showers to come across western areas, blustery and later on gaels will move into north—western areas as well so it will turn windy. temperatures are above average, ranging from eight to 11 celsius. overnight, a feed of showers, an area of low pressure anchored to the north—west of the country, not moving quickly at all. the showers will merge together to give longer spells of rain later in the night, across western areas of scotland, and it will be a frost free nightfall is, temperatures between four and eight celsius. tomorrow, we still have the same area of low weathers, and again it is going to be unsettled, again,

blustery weather showers around, but the one good thing with those strong winds as the showers don�*t last very long in any one place. the downpours will move through most of you with sunshine quickly following. but still windy, the wind in inland areas, possibly 30, 40 mph, may be reaching 50, 60 in the far north—west of scotland, and temperatures not changing too much, perhaps coming down and degree around western areas, several for aberdeen. pressure will continue to bring rain and wet weather across northern western areas, windy, but it will ease a little, plenty of sunshine around parts of eastern wales and central eastern areas of england as well, temperatures around seven—10 degrees. enter the weak, unsubtle, moreno times, temperatures continue to be quite a long way above average, the average in london this time of year is seven so 13 degrees, well, six degrees above average for the stage of the year. that is how things are looking.

let�*s take a look at some of today�*s papers. a bit ofa a bit of a theme across most of them this saturday morning. the publicity around prince harry�*s forthcoming book, spare, dominates saturday�*s front pages. the times focusing on his descriptions of his time in the army. the daily mirror leads on the same, describing prince harry�*s claim of killing 25 taliban members as an "outrageous boast". a photo of prince harry and meghan huddling under an umbrella dominates the daily telegraph�*s front page, above claims that king charles didn�*t want meghan "to be another diana". and the bbc news website has lots of coverage of that as well, but one of the most—watched videos is dramatic footage of the moment a car crashed and flipped inside a car wash in the us. i don�*t understand how that happened. seeing as it is on the website maybe we can watch it. it is driven into the car wash which has speed limits already. he was just

trying to get the underneath washed? i would say that was right. what�*s inside? lots. this is a little one. it looks like it is inside the mail, talking about the perfect bedtime for a healthy heart. apparently. we do like bedtime stories! we are obsessed with sleep. this would be too late for your bedtime on a normal night because for men apparently if you go to bed at 11 o�*clock it reduces your risk of having heart issues. for women, according to this research, it has now been published in a journal and peer reviewed, it�*s midnight. that�*s just... it�*s too late for me. what is the proof? researchers at the university of south china. they have done it. don�*t we have to be returning to their old—fashioned stamps by the end of the month? they are now going to have barcodes. so

if you have any old stamps you should look around, there is an advertising campaign, search for your old stamps and get them swapped. they cost more money these days! you would want to get them! i was thinking that, this is sweet. a postbox once used by queen victoria at one of our holiday�*s —— holiday homes turns up in sorry with a christmas card inside and this little curved postbox, you cannot see, it is a tiny picture, looks delightful, thought to be made in 1880 and used at osborne house on the isle of wight and the house was built by victoria and albert is a country retreat. the letterbox features the queen�*s cypher vr, it�*s going to be sold at the end of this month expected to fetch £6,000. i cannot imagine it is big. it may have been a gift, they thought. and the christmas card inside, i cannot figure out, it does not say what it was. who it was from? yeah. you

know, during victoria�*s rain, talking of stamps, i did not know this, the postal service increased in terms of performance and there were reforms and the campaign led to the creation of the world�*s first adhesive postage stamp. the penny black. 1840. i knew it was the first stem but i did not know it was the first adhesive. just another quick one. you have not done parkrun? never. i think it is a great thing, people love it. i have not either but as you say, loads of people love it and will be doing it this morning no doubt, right across the country. there is a picture ofjayden weideman one of the stars of last summer on the track running in the dulwich parkrun. apparently several other 0lympic dulwich parkrun. apparently several other olympic athletes have been spotted taking part in their local parkrun so if you do get lapped, as

i would, i�*m sure i would more than once on a five k... everyone would! at least you can consult yourself that it may be an 0lympian. —— console. think back to your childhood. bicycles? did you have any fancy pants ones? a purple budgie, raleigh budgie. in a raleigh c commando but i know where this is going. i never had one. if you were a child of the 19705, the chances are you will have wanted a raleigh chopper. look at that. if you were born in the 70s you would have wanted one. i had a chip. a cheap version of a chopper? yes, secondhand! it was yellow. this is the one you could have had. i loved it, it was really comfortable and had a fixed seat! bicycle seats are so uncomfortable

now! anyone, back to the raleigh chopper. the iconic bike was designed by tom karen, who died a week ago, but his many achievements — which go well beyond the chopper — are being celebrated in a museum all about him. helen mulroy went to find out more. arguably tom curran most famous piece, the raleigh chopper is an icon of the 70s and the bike every youngster wanted to find under their christmas tree. its appeal and place in popular culture spans decades. it featured in supergrass�*s 1995 in popular culture spans decades. it featured in supergrass�*s1995 music video. start in the chase scene in the moviejumanji. video. start in the chase scene in the movie jumanji._ video. start in the chase scene in the movie jumanji. the movie juman'i. raleigh needed to the movie juman'i. raleigh needed to t and the movie juman'i. raleigh needed to try and compete— the movie jumanji. raleigh needed to try and compete with _ the movie jumanji. raleigh needed to try and compete with an _ the movie jumanji. raleigh needed to try and compete with an american - try and compete with an american bike called the schwinn which was a very curvaceous. whatever we did it would have a big wheel and a small wheel because the big wheel shows where the power comes from, you

teams. i think the audience have seen a great game with a lot of tempo, changes both sides and, of course, we are happy we are in the next round. there are 22 more third—round games today, including fa cup holders champions liverpool in action. they face wolves in an all—premier league tie but they�*ll do so without their main defender virgil van dijk. the dutchman has been ruled out for a month because of a hamstring injury. managerjurgen klopp says it�*s time for the next man to step up and play their part. for now he is not available and that�*s how it is and we have other centre—halves, it�*s only that the case. everything is ok for the team but it�*s hard for him, he played incredible amount of games over the last years, to be honest, so now, we cannot use him on the pitch at least but only off the pitch we will do that. last season�*s runners—up chelsea aren�*t in action until tomorrow, when they face manchester city, where we can expect more tributes

a wildlife presenter who is passionate about conservation. my work has taken me all over the world, and in that time seen huge changes, many due to climate change. in extreme conservation, we meet inspirational people who have dedicated their lives to protecting the natural world. this time, i am in turkey. this country�*s stunning forest are facing devastating losses. but it is notjust the trees that need saving, it is also the creatures. i�*m meeting the remarkable people trying to save honeybees. you are a bee whisperer. and those building turkey�*s brown bears a safe place to roam. this is extreme conservation turkey.

turkey is huge — a vast and varied country stretching over 1500km. turkey is surrounded by water on three sides, the mediterranean sea, the black sea and the aegean and then in the east it is mountainous and rugged and all that influences the climate and different ways. it�*s a country that is so rich in natural diversity, its sweeping pine forest are one of its key assets. but as temperatures rise, these forests are being destroyed by wildfires, that are getting ever more intense. i start myjourney on the western

coast, a short boat ride a short boat ride from the coastal town of bodrum where thick pine forests stretch all the way to the beaches. like so many places around the world, summers here have got hotter and drier, and recently they have had horrendous forest fires that have completely changed the landscape. all of this used to be green forest, and now look at it. here in mugla, an area bigger than 100 football fields was wiped out in days. and these most recent fires were more ferocious than any wildfire turkey has ever seen before.

hussain is one of the many thousands of people who have lost almost everything in the fires. people rely on these forests to make a living. not from the trees themselves, but from the creatures that live in them. these trees are vital for the survival of one of the most important insects on the planet, an insect you might not immediately associate with forests. the honeybee.

a stroll down a street in this port town in the region and you can see how central honey is to the economy here. this is the honey that is pretty unique to this area, it�*s not flower honey, it�*s pine honey. it�*s produced from pine trees and almost all the pine honey in the world comes from this little corner of turkey. i�*ve never tried pine honey before, so i am looking forward to this. apparently it tastes very different. 0oh, that is so good. it tastes woody, almost spicy. but pine honey is not made by a bee alone, a small grub has a big role to play. i�*m meeting yonca tokbas, a bee expert, to find out more about these intriguing insects and how they contribute

to making pine honey. hello! she has dedicated herself to preserving the bee�*s way of life even running ultra marathons to raise the profile of the bee cause. what a beautiful forest. this is a healthy forest. you get the smell and the sound of the forest. this is the bug. that tiny thing? yeah, it�*s taking the sap from the pine tree and creating this liquid, can you see? and that is what the bee is taking from the pine tree. that tiny, tiny animal that you have difficulty seeing is the magic creator of the whole process.

more than half of these essential grubs were wiped out by the fires. if you don�*t have this insect, you do not have food for bees and you don�*t have pine honey. with natural food sources dwindling and many hives destroyed, yonca warns that some honey producers are putting too much pressure on the remaining bees. we encourage their sicknesses, like treating them with chemicals or trying to feed them unnatural sugary stuff to produce more than they can. we are exploiting bees? exactly, it�*s an abuse.

alpair comes from a long line of bee farmers. to him and his family, bees are notjust a source of income but a way of life. they aren�*t even bothering you. they clearly know you. you are a bee whisperer! mm—hmm. he uses traditional methods to look after his 10 million bees. amazing! wow, look at all thoise bees. his way is simple, he believes the bees should be left to do what they do naturally — collect the nectar from the wild and return to the hive to make honey. this is not the optimum production method. intensively farmed bees just come out of the hives and drink sugar

water left for them, and then go back into produce what alper calls false honey. they do not travel around the ecosystem as they should, pollinating plants, including our fruit and vegetables. he says they get unhealthy and die sooner. really, does taste delicious. it�*s interesting how we are all familiar with battery farming and exploiting chickens for eggs and meat, but how many of us have thought about the exploitation of bees with intense beekeeping and the damage that is doing? it seems to me that the extreme conservation for bees is to go back to basics, go back to this traditional way of beekeeping. for alper, the recovery of the pine forests is crucial. until then, these bees have limited

resources to survive. what are the main things people need to understand about bees for their future conservation? plant, for example, some of the flowers they love. it�*s a food resource for them. this is the amount of honey that a bee can produce in a lifetime. for one bee? for one bee. just in that? just in that. don�*t waste it. finding out a bee producesjust1/12 of a teaspoon of honey has made me think about how much we use. for yonca, she is determined to save the bees by inspiring the next generation. the youth is amazing. they are much more aware than we are and they�*re working on trying to help nature more than our generation. all sing.

when we think of forests, we think of that importance to fight climate change, but they�*re equally important for biodiversity. so much of our wildlife lives and thrives in a forest. as we have seen with the honeybee and that tiny bug it wouldn�*t survive if it was not for all these trees, it�*s a precious ecosystem that desperately needs protecting. continuing myjourney of extreme conservation, i�*m in the mountains of east turkey. i�*ve travelled 1400 kilometres from the aegean coast to near turkey�*s armenian border. in winter, this area is popular

for skiing but it is mainly a farming region. overtime, lots of forests have been felled for pastures, leaving just a patchwork of trees behind. but i�*m here as this is home to turkey�*s majestic migrating brown bear. naturally, the bears would live in these mountains in spring and summer, and when food becomes harder to find in autumn, some of them travel over 100 kilometres to the black sea region where they fatten up and come back to hibernate for winter. but this natural pattern of behaviour has now been disrupted. researchers aysegul and emrah have been observing the bears for over a decade and dedicated their lives to protecting them. i�*m joining them in the hope of getting a glimpse of these magnificent creatures.

hello!. hi, i'm hi, i�*m michaela. you�*re listening for the bears? we are searching for the signal of one of the collared bears. if the bear is moving, we understand as the _ if the bear is moving, we understand as the signal is moving. emrah and aysegul have been collecting detailed data on the bears to understand human activity is impacting the migration habits of the bears. the forest they live in has become fragmented, dramatically changing their behaviour. we�*re here before dusk to increase our chances of seeing them. and we�*re in luck. this has been really exciting. we�*ve seen seven bears

come out of this forest, including two cubs, but the only reason we�*re seeing so many of them together is because they�*re on their way to this, the dump site, and they�*re going there to feed. the bears are here to scavenge. some of their forest have been overtaken by urban development, so they�*re forced to feed on our rubbish. oh, my word! look at them. there�*s so many of them! and the cubs are there as well! 18. is that what you counted? just in this bit? this is really depressing. oh, look. and you can see the cubs, even. for me, it�*s exciting to see

bears but not like this. i mean, this is really, really sad. now here is too much food. they are not fighting. they are trying to eat leftovers but they are many times eat the plastics. the young cubs copy the adults, and so learn this scavenging behaviour. cub are learning eat in the garbage. yeah. it�*s walking off with a whole bag of rubbish. some bears are very fatty and very lazy because of there are not moving too much. this is a really sad sight and it�*s an all—too—familiar sight across the world. as habitats are being destroyed, wild animals are forced to come into built—up areas to find food. a massive problem that needs a massive solution.

the team has come up with an ambitious plan to lure the bears away from the dump. they want to create a new travel route for the bears. taking existing patches of forest, they�*re planting 11 million trees to fill in the gaps. this forested route will stretch over 160 kilometres, right up to the georgian border, creating turkey�*s first wildlife corridor. they hope it will entice the bears to migrate once again. this is perfect for bears — thick forest — but then itjust and there�*s this vast expanse of nothing and the next forest is 14 kilometres away, so this habitat has become really fragmented. the bears have a big role

to play in this ecosystem. they keep the balance amongst the animals that roam these forests the lynx, the wolves, even the rabbits. they all have a kind of silent agreement with each other. if you take out one species, we could think about this as the health of the agreement would not exist any more. we�*re tracking along the bears�* route, looking for any clues to show that at least some of them are still trying to make the journey. look. 0h! are they the prince? yeah, this is footprints. this is rubbing trees. oh, this is where — you can see. this is where the bears come and rub? some hairs and scratching.

i can see there. yeah, like this. some bears scratch, but almost bears like this. this. oh, that must be great to see! this is the sort of information emrah and aysegul have been painstakingly collecting for ten years. this is like our eyes in the forest. they�*ve installed around 50 of these cameras which help them document the animal�*s natural behaviours and their relationships with each other, and they�*ve also collared some with gps trackers to map how they move around in this patchwork of forest and see where they�*re running into trouble. this is the bear movement. it is recorded every hour. we have the information of their movement, their behaviour, the time they�*re

spending in the spot. it tells us these animals need more space to move and go further. also in their way are the pastures cleared for farming. these are the gaps that are planned to be planted. the data shows some of the braver

bears still move between forests, and they hope more tree cover will encourage others to migrate. the initial trees in the project were planted only a few months ago. i�*m joining bulat to plant one of the first saplings in this area. hey!

well, i�*ve played a tiny part of a huge and exciting project. it�*s going to take years before it�*s finished, but wouldn�*t it be amazing to come back here and see this whole area forested, full of bears and lynx and wolves and so much other wildlife and become an incredibly precious ecosystem? only when the wildlife is roaming freely in the forests and can find food and nature can this dump be safely shut off to bears. 20 years later, i hope everywhere has trees, not open area like this. and bears do not eat the trash, just healthy foods. and hanging around here and having fun being in the real wildlife. yes. we hope so. during my time here,

i�*ve met incredible individuals fighting to protect the creatures living alongside them. desperately trying to manage the delicate balance between people and nature. rewilding the forest will take time, but it also takes care and consideration of all its inhabitants, big or small. we�*ve pushed so much of our wildlife into unsustainable pockets and we�*ve lost whole ecosystems already. climate change and our insatiable appetite for development has destroyed so many habitats and it�*s up to us now to try and find ways to recreate them. what they�*re doing here in turkey is ambitious but if it works, hopefully, it will be an inspiration for other projects around the world.

good morning welcome to breakfast with naga munchetty and roger johnson. 0ur headlines today: tackling the crisis in the nhs. prime minister rishi sunak is holding emergency talks with health leaders about how to ease pressure on the service. the majority of train services across the uk are cancelled as the rmt union continues its 48—hour strike. prince harry faces more criticism for comments in his book about killing taliban fighters.

good morning on fa cup third round weekend, which got under way last night at old trafford, as manchester united won their seventh game in a row, to knock out everton. good morning, wet and windy start to the day, the good news is the worst of the rain will blow through, come the afternoon it will brighten up with spells of sunshine, lots of blustery showers today, particularly because western areas, the full forecast coming later. it�*s saturday, 7th january. our top story: the prime minister will hold emergency talks at downing street later this morning to try to tackle the huge challenges facing the nhs. senior doctors say the health service is on a knife edge, with many a&e units struggling to cope with record demand. our health correspondent jim reed reports. the nhs is under record pressure this winter, with queues of ambulances delayed outside hospitals,

rising waiting lists, and more front—line strikes planned in the coming weeks. sue spent 16 hours in her local a&e after turning up recently with chest pain. to be honest with you, ijust wanted to get out. ijust wanted to get out because i felt i was safer at home than in that hospital. i didn�*t feel confident — not that they didn�*t know what they were doing — there just wasn�*t enough people to do what is necessary. today�*s meeting called the nhs recovery forum will involve ministers from both the health and treasury departments along with nhs bosses, council leaders and medical experts. downing street said it�*s been called to discuss four key issues — gp services, emergency care, waiting lists and delays in discharging patients into social care. speaking yesterday, the prime minister said the demands on the nns were currently enormous.

in particular, this winter what we want to do is make sure that we move people out of hospitals, into social care, into communities, that�*s one of the most powerful ways we can ease some of the pressures on a&e departments and ambulances that are waiting too long. labour criticised the timing of the meeting, saying health experts have already been sounding the alarm for months, while the liberal democrats described it as too little, too late. the latest nhs data for england shows ambulance crews are facing record delays at a&e, while the number being treated forflu and covid in hospital has also been rising sharply. jim reed, bbc news. you can find out how your local services are coping this winter with the nhs tracker on the bbc news website. train passengers are facing yet another day of severely disrupted services as rail workers continue their second 48—hour strike of the week. it�*s the fifth consecutive day of industrial action by either rmt

or aslef members. helena wilkinson has the latest. another day, and yet more disruption for rail passengers. services across the network will once again be severely disrupted. the dispute over pay, jobs, and working conditions has been going on for months. now train drivers represented by the union, aslef, have been offered a pay rise in a bid to stop the strikes. the deal includes a backdated pay rise of 4% for 2022, and a 4% increase this year. we want to get around the table and finalise, that�*s why we�*ll put this offer out with the reform we are looking for, so that we can expiate those talks and try and deliver something

that will allow these strikes to finish once and for all, and get customers back with us, and making sure we protect the railway for the future. but aslef has told the bbc its officials haven�*t seen the offer yet. last month, the rmt union rejected proposals involving the same pay offer, which was conditional on changes to working practices. on monday, there will be meetings between the rail minister, industry representatives and union leaders, as attempts to find a solution continue, its passengers whose lives have been disrupted, and today they are being told to only travel if absolutely necessary. prince harry is facing more criticism over claims made that he killed 25 taliban fighters during his service as a helicopter pilot in afghanistan. in his memoir, spare, he describes them as chess pieces removed from the board. 0ur reporter zoe 0�*brien is outside buckingham palace this morning.

number flood warnings in force, particularly around dorset where we have had them for a number of days. windy, breezy costs around 65 mph in south—west england, in the north york moors, 55 mph. the strong winds at the moment are ahead of this band of rain pushing its way through. then comes the brighter weather with sunshine, lots of showers across western areas, blustery, heavy and the winds will strengthen late day across the north—west, another batch of gales later in the day. temperatures — 8—811 for most, mild for this stage of the year. overnight, continue to see showers feeding and around our area of low pressure, closest to the low centre where the majority of the downpours will be but because it stays windy overnight it would get cold, frost free with temperatures about four—seven celsius. the second half of the weekend still dominated by the same area of low pressure which is still up towards the north of

scotland, tightly packed isobars from the school and returns windy for a time, blustery for most. again, bands of showers from west to east. the benefit of these brisk winds is that if you get a downpour it won�*t last long and is sunshine will come out again as the showers clouds pass through. gust inland, 30 mph generally but windy across the north—west of scotland. temperatures aren�*t really changing too much, about seven and 10 celsius is the high tomorrow afternoon. monday, low pressure is still there but we so the winds are starting to get lighter, further showers around. they will merge together for wetter weather for a time into they will merge together for wetter weatherfor a time into parts they will merge together for wetter weather for a time into parts of scotland and northern ireland. some snow over the higher scottish hills around 600 metres elevation, which is good news for some of the ski resorts in scotland. beyond that it stays unsettled so expect further bands of rain. the temperatures on the whole are staying above average,

the whole are staying above average, the average in london is about seven degrees, so tuesday, 13, about six above average for the stage of january. factors as we�*ve heard this morning, rishi sunak will hold emergency talks with health leaders later, aimed at tackling the challenges facing the nhs. one of the areas they�*ll focus on is gp services. 0ur reporterjoanne writtle has been to meet one gp who says this christmas was the busiest she�*s experienced in her 20—year career. just some deep breaths in and out for me. good. i�*m just some deep breaths in and out for me- good-— for me. good. i'm quite puffy and feel a bit wobbly. _ for me. good. i'm quite puffy and feel a bit wobbly. norman - for me. good. i'm quite puffy and feel a bit wobbly. norman is i for me. good. i'm quite puffy and l feel a bit wobbly. norman is among nearl 200 feel a bit wobbly. norman is among nearly 200 patients _ feel a bit wobbly. norman is among nearly 200 patients dealt _ feel a bit wobbly. norman is among nearly 200 patients dealt with - feel a bit wobbly. norman is among nearly 200 patients dealt with by i nearly 200 patients dealt with by gps at this this in one day. my gps at this this in one day. my experience _ gps at this this in one day. m experience is that gps at this this in one day. m1: experience is that on the gps at this this in one day. m1 experience is that on the occasion when i felt i really needed to be seen, i've been seen. at

acute, urgent emergency care settings such as emergency departments and acute medical departments and acute medical departments generally and we have input into a collaborative document with the people who will be at the summit today. there was a recent piece rebuilding the nhs that was released in december and an opinion piece in the british medicaljournal in the last week or so with people who will be at the meeting so our views will certainly be heard at the meeting but i think it's a case of having a small number of people in order to move quickly. what having a small number of people in order to move quickly.— having a small number of people in order to move quickly. what are your views? currently, _ order to move quickly. what are your views? currently, the _ order to move quickly. what are your views? currently, the nhs— order to move quickly. what are your views? currently, the nhs is- order to move quickly. what are your views? currently, the nhs is in - views? currently, the nhs is in absolute crisis. _ views? currently, the nhs is in absolute crisis. i _ views? currently, the nhs is in absolute crisis. i will— views? currently, the nhs is in absolute crisis. i will reiterate l absolute crisis. i will reiterate theissues absolute crisis. i will reiterate the issues at the last gp has said, the issues at the last gp has said, the christmas we have had has been unprecedented and one of the major issuesis unprecedented and one of the major issues is with recruitment and retention of staff across the whole multidisciplinary team, medical, nursing, therapies, pharmacists, there are gaps across the system and it has led to huge levels of low

morale, us not delivering the level of care we want to deliver and patients deserve at times, and also burnout. this is a real issue we've got. it's been unrelenting. normally, the pressures on the system wax and wane but what we've seen is it building and building and we've had no let up and staff are really getting some moral injury for not delivering the care that we want to deliver to the patients due to the system we find ourselves in. the prime minister is convening this meeting this morning which clearly, you know, coming outside of parliamentary session and he's obviously trying to do something. but from what you've said, if the major issues are staffing and recruitment, there is no quick fix to that, is there? what is the solution? i to that, is there? what is the solution?— to that, is there? what is the solution? . .. ., , solution? i agree the fact that they have called — solution? i agree the fact that they have called a _ solution? i agree the fact that they have called a session _ solution? i agree the fact that they have called a session on _ solution? i agree the fact that they have called a session on saturday, | have called a session on saturday, outside of parliament, is significant. it will be interesting to see what comes out of that.

short—term quick fixes are difficult. in the longer term, i think we need to have better funding for primary care, mental health services, the ambulance service and community care to try to keep patients out of hospital and get patients out of hospital and get patients out of hospital and get patients out of hospital but are stranded there through no fault of their own. i think one of the other issues, short—term, perhaps increased, we cannot work any harder, in all honesty, but may be more cleverly, more communication between teams, more seven—day working of the whole multidisciplinary team and my ability to discharge back into the community over both weekends and bank holidays. so i think there needs to be in the short term a frank discussion between leaders and staff, as well as the public about the pressures we are under at the moment, and the fact that there needs to be some change instigated in order to try to address this. the issue of seven—day working is an interesting one and many people will say of course the nhs works seven

days anyway because people are in hospital because there are nurses and medical staff there but what you're talking about is having a service that looks the same on a sunday as it does on a monday. are your members, for example, willing to go down that road? most your members, for example, willing to go down that road?— your members, for example, willing to go down that road? most of us do seven-day working... _ to go down that road? most of us do seven-day working... a _ to go down that road? most of us do seven-day working... a fair - to go down that road? most of us do seven-day working... a fair point, . seven-day working... a fair point, true. i seven-day working... a fair point, true- i think _ seven-day working... a fair point, true. i think it's _ seven-day working... a fair point, true. i think it's around _ seven-day working... a fair point, true. i think it's around the - seven-day working... a fair point, true. i think it's around the other| true. i think it's around the other side of things. — true. i think it's around the other side of things, including - true. i think it's around the other| side of things, including radiology services, pharmacy, discharge, the fact that we cannot discharge patients at the weekend and on bank holidays. not even easier fashion as we can during the week. and recently we've had a perfect storm of all of this. the hospitals are constipated and we are unable to get patients at the back doorfor various reasons but we've had a flunami, flu nami, flu flunami, flu and covid and rsv and patients are coming in with one, two or three of these, and lodges

imagine. in order to achieve this out of hours and working more antisocial hours, for example, there needs to be a full and frank discussion about working conditions and who is going to pay for that because obviously, working out of hours is going to be more expensive across the board. due to the cost of living crisis and the fact that we've had below inflation pay rises for a very long time, it means that there would need to be significant funding to try to achieve these aspirations. ladle funding to try to achieve these aspirations-— funding to try to achieve these asirations. ~ . , ., ., aspirations. we are very grateful to ou for aspirations. we are very grateful to you for speaking — aspirations. we are very grateful to you for speaking to _ aspirations. we are very grateful to you for speaking to us, _ aspirations. we are very grateful to you for speaking to us, dr- aspirations. we are very grateful to you for speaking to us, dr nick- you for speaking to us, dr nick murch. after being captured by russian forces and sentenced to death, aiden aslin's family thought they would never see him again. he'd been defending the city of mariupol when he was captured in april, but a prisoner exchange between ukraine and russia meant he was able to return to the uk in september. despite what he's been through, aiden plans to return to ukraine — but not to the front line. he's been speaking to our

that looks a bit desperate. ski sunday presenter ed leigh is in the swiss resort town of interlaken ahead of the new series of the program starting tomorrow. where's the snow, ed? so many people were fortunate enough to book a holiday, they look forward to book a holiday, they look forward to this time of year but they get there and it is not happening? unfortunately this winter we have seen an unprecedented heatwave, something similar in 2016, but this is another step on from that again, “d is another step on from that again, up to about two thousandths in some places, in some places 2500 metres, just not the snow cover you would expect to see this time of year. as an example is held behind me should at this time of year at least have a dusting on it, we should have really low temperatures but at the moment it feels more like the uk than it does the alps. unlike i was going to ask you, you have been there for 30

years on the trot, if you would normally expect to see snow on the souths behind you but what is the situation across the rest of europe like? it is the same across the alps. we saw something similar last season. usually if you are in france and it is a bit barren then you will see that it is a bit barren then you will see thatitis is a bit barren then you will see that it is snowing in austria or switzerland or vice—versa, italy will get some, germany one, or scandinavia will be dry, but last year, the same as this year it is europewide. poland usually have an average temperature of one celsius this time of year. they posted a couple of days at 90 celsius, so from all the way in south—west france all the way up to eastern europe it is really, really warm. this isn'tjust about europe it is really, really warm. this isn't just about those europe it is really, really warm. this isn'tjust about those people who don't get to have theirjolly skiing holidays, this is about business as well because it generates — the actual ski resorts generates — the actual ski resorts generate so much money and there are

sponsors welcome but alpine skiing world cup taking place as well? that is what we are _ world cup taking place as well? trisgit is what we are following, and it is a testament to modern technology that the artificial snow is truly doing the job. that the artificial snow is truly doing thejob. we have these pictures we are seeing now with muddy hills, greenhills where people are biking over new year they have a strip of snow down them, they have blown in snow up to 12 celsius and they have made strips of snow down they have made strips of snow down the mountainside the moment we still have a full racing calendar to work with, so this is miraculous. you know what? _ with, so this is miraculous. you know what? in _ with, so this is miraculous. you know what? in some _ with, so this is miraculous. you know what? in some of- with, so this is miraculous. you know what? in some of the newspapers i was reading, online as well, there have been some horrible accidents from some people called out, whether it is because of the artificial snow and they have portable machines or just coping with the snow that is never happened had accidents — conditions can be very difficult?

yes, i think the best way to put it is that good snow flattens the way people snow and ski board. when it gets icu could warm temperatures during the day and it cools down at my so it is called mel's freeze when you get very, very vicious sites on the slopes which doesn't flatter anyone and it is very unforgiving if you fall over on it. so it is less than ideal but the good news is we have a big storm in the forecast for this sunday and later next week, and after that in the long—term forecast we have some big storms coming as well so it looks like it will balance itself out in the future. thank you, we wish you all the best for the start of your new series on ski cabinet sunday, starting tomorrow night on bbc two, 615. that music is iconic.

he as they are saying we have a great big storm coming! it will be positive if we had that here we would be petrified. but i think that picture needs to change because it does not drinking she had this morning, it looks like there is lots of rain coming? just morning, it looks like there is lots of rain coming?— of rain coming? just for you then i will change _ of rain coming? just for you then i will change it. _ of rain coming? just for you then i will change it. there _ of rain coming? just for you then i will change it. there we _ of rain coming? just for you then i will change it. there we go. - will change it. there we go. brighter weather on the way! laughs. it will be brighter later on, you will see a bit of sunshine coming through. this is the area of cloud working on at the moment that will bring wet and windy conditions. following that, spackled showers working on, light rainfall totals building up across the hills of southern england and southern well southern england and southern well so we could see alkali surface water flooding and also gusty start to the day, gusts in the last couple of hours every 65 mph on the coast of south—west england, blowy as well in that across the north york moors, 55 miles an hour, lots of gals. strongest winds ahead of this band

will be windy as well with gusts potentially to the 50 miles an hour, more generally inland gusts of around 30, perhaps 40 mph. temperatures not changing much, seven—ten to take you to tomorrow afternoon. into monday, low pressure still there but winds are weakening, low pressure weakening, few showers forjust low pressure weakening, few showers for just about anyone but across western scotland, north—west england and northern ireland you're likely to see heavier spells of rain and snow up over the higher scottish mountains above a 600 metres elevation. through the rest of the week it is unsettled but mild and pretty wet at times. more rain in the forecast. i loved that picture change. just for ou! i loved that picture change. just for you! thank _ i loved that picture change. just for you! thank you. _ i loved that picture change. just for you! thank you. i'm - i loved that picture change. just for you! thank you. i'm sure - for you! thank you. i'm sure everyone — for you! thank you. i'm sure everyone appreciated - for you! thank you. i'm sure everyone appreciated it - for you! thank you. i'm sure everyone appreciated it to. l many of us will remember queuing up in the local amusement arcade to play the likes of space invaders, donkey kong or pac—man.

we will be back with the headlines at eight. now on breakfast, it's time for newswatch. hello, and welcome back to newswatch with me, samira ahmed. why are users of the bbc news app getting so many breaking news alerts? and another news channel programme bites the dust — why has the papers been axed? happy new year. we ended 2022 hearing your views about the bbc�*s coverage of prince harry and the place football should have on news bulletins. and while the men's world cup is over and the fuss over that netflix series about the duke and duchess of sussex has died down, both those questions have reared their heads again in the past week or two, prompted by the death of pele and advance publicity for prince harry's book, spare. the book's contents will be uncomfortable for the royal family — and particularly for william. the depth of the rift between the brothers —

willie and harold, as they apparently know each other — is laid bare. as we found before christmas, many of you object to the prominence given to the allegations made by the duke of sussex. someone describing themselves as exasperated citizen wondered: as for the brazilian footballer pele, widely hailed as the greatest ever to play the game, his death last week and funeral this tuesday were widely covered across bbc news. the finaljourney now complete — and what a journey it was. laid to rest in his beloved city of santos. not a block of flats,

but a necropolis fit for a king. ken drew recorded his thoughts for us on video. whilst the death of footballing legend pele is undoubtedly sad and certainly very newsworthy, to have six days of continual updates and news reports on the demise of a brazilian footballer seem to me to be just a little bit excessive, perhaps. others put it more strongly, such asjenny fenwick: now to a loss of another kind. after the ending over the past few months of dateline london and the film review — both reported on this programme — a third news channel staple had its final edition on monday, signed off by david eades, who himself left the bbc this week. just to say that tonight has been the final edition of the papers,

here on bbc news channel. all i can say now is thanks for watching. the papers theme plays. but many people had plenty to say about the dropping of the papers — a nightly review of the next day's newspapers featuring two guests, normallyjournalists. one of its original presenters, clive myrie, described it as "the end of an era," tweeting: and we've heard from a number of fans, including helen murphy: muriel crane added:

well, the move comes ahead of the planned bringing—together of the domestic news channel and the international world news channel, expected in the spring — and we will be exploring the wider implications of that merger in a future edition of newswatch — but in the meantime, this is what the bbc had to say: the rhetoric from the powers that be at the bbc talks more and more these days of the need to become a digital—first organisation. amongst other things,

this means a greater emphasis on news delivered online and, increasingly, via the bbc news app. if you have that installed on your phone, you can choose whether to receive breaking news alerts — and if you do so, you'll have noticed it ping with greater frequency of late. that's annoyed carolyn harris, who wrote to us: and dr stevejohnson asked: stephen blakemore also got

in touch with us about this, and this week, spotted this breaking news alert, pointing him to an article by the bbc�*s royal correspondent. he recorded this video for us. so, here's the thing — you're at work, you're out and about, you're relaxing at home and you hear this. breaking news chime. so, you reach for your phone. you think, "what's happened now?" but no, it's not breaking news, it's a plug for comment analysis, an article on the bbc news app or website or there's coverage about to start on the news channel. sometimes, it's an open question and you have to click to find the answer — some people call that 'clickbait�*. so, what is the editorial guidance on the use and abuse of news alerts? well, to answer that very question, i'm joined by stuart miller, the digital news editorfor bbc news. thank you for coming on newswatch. so, has there been a decision to put out more alerts than you used to, and what is the guidance? yeah, so we're definitely alerting more. not every news alert

is a breaking news alert, we do it for all sorts of different... so it doesn't always say "breaking"? it doesn't always say breaking news, and it doesn't always have the sound there as well. the . but as well as the biggest news moments, we also want to alert people when to follow live when there's a big news event — like pmqs was mentioned there, which has been contentious week in, week out for some time. and live is a big component of what we do now, and the audience wants to follow along. and we see that when we alert those things for follow live, the audience comes in millions and they stick with the live page, as well. it's very much not a clickbait thing. one of the viewers there was saying, shouldn't it be for specific events and shouldn't you have the option to say, "i just want breaking news "alerts," like a courtjudgement or a major incident? yeah, and i think i think that's a really good piece of feedback

and that's something we're working on just now. at the moment, you know, getting the best bbc content to people across the board is a really important part of our public service mission. at the moment, it's a bit one—size—fits—all, though because, you know, because of the way our apps work. so, we're working just now to build more opportunities for people — people to tailor what they get to their own needs and for personalisation but fundamentally, we want people to get the biggest stories and the best bbc content and analysis to their phones without them having to go and looking for it. i suppose what some of the viewers feel, which is coming across, is they don't like the idea ofjust getting adverts for bbc news content, because that's not what they signed up for, it's not an alert. yeah, and i think what alerts are has evolved a lot over the last few years, notjust for the bbc but for every news organisation, from the days when it was just straightforward breaking news text messages to much more of a richer content mix. but we find that because live, and people are having the chance to follow live — if it's

a laura kuenssberg interview with rishi sunak, for example, people want to know that they can follow that live — that's a news event of itself. and that's more than just advertising — that's part of the news conversation that's happening online. you see, you can get a dozen a day sometimes — i've gone through my phone at the end of the day when i've not been looking at it, and i've been stunned by how many alerts there are. i have to say, bbcjournalists have been among the people who said to me, they think it's just too much, their phone's pinging all the time and theyjust want the big breaking stories. do you actually set a limit on how many you might send out in a day? well, you know, we're always aware of how many we're sending. sometimes, there are just a lot — you know, there's been a lot of news over the last year and that's been a driver of how many times we're sending news alerts each day. we don't have an upper limit. we just want to get the best content to people. but i think it's really important for us to hear this and calibrate it, because we're having these conversations every day. we sawjonny dymond's opinion piece

on prince harry's book was sent as an alert. isn't there a dangerous erosion of the boundary between news fact and comment when you send out alerts for things like that? so, you know, i would call that an analysis piece based onjonny dymond's expertise as a royal correspondent and his assessment of, you know, the royal family and the impact of the book. that's very different from, you know, an opinion piece, where he expresses his personal view on it. and contextualising the biggest stories is a big part of our public service mission, as well, helping our audiences understand the currents and context around this biggest news. and with bbc experts likejonny or chris mason, that's important for our public service mission, as well. so, in concluding, then, it sounds like you're considering whether you can offer a more tailored approach to alerts, possibly the option that people could get fewer alerts focused on actualfacts, which is what i think newswatch viewers are asking for? yeah, i mean, yes, we are doing that. we want people to be able to tailor the experience for themselves and we also want to build products

that learn what people are interested in and do it for them. we're working just now on being able to sign up, opt in, opt out of news alerts, newsletters so that the news comes to people. but i wouldn't draw this distinction between "the facts" and then, you know, everything else — we also send push alerts around big investigative features — the best bbcjournalism from, say, panorama or newsnight. and that's not traditional breaking news but it's factual and accurate and it's trusted and we're not going to stop doing that. stuart millar, thank you so much. thank you. thank you for all your comments this week. if you want to share your opinions about what you see or hear on bbc news, on tv, radio, online, and social media, email or you can find us on twitter. you can call us. and do you have a look at our website.

that's all from us. we'll be back to hear your thoughts next week, when we'll be interviewing the editor of breakfast, richard frediani. but for now, goodbye. good morning, welcome to breakfast, with naga munchetty and rogerjohnson. our headlines today. tackling the crisis in the nhs. prime minister rishi sunak is holding emergency talks with health leaders about how to ease pressure on the service. the majority of train services across the uk are cancelled as the rmt union continues its 48 hour strike. prince harry faces more criticism for comments in his book about killing taliban fighters. good morning on the weekend famous for fa cup upsets. but there wasn't one in the opening third round game at old trafford, as manchester united won their seventh game in a row,

sue spent 16 hours in her local a&e, after turning up recently with chest pain. to be honest with you, i was just, i wanted to get out. ijust wanted to get out, because i felt i was safer at home than in the hospital. i didn't feel confident — not that they didn't know what they were doing, there just wasn't enough people to do what was necessary. today's meeting, called the nhs recovery forum, will involve ministers from both the health and treasury departments along with nhs bosses, council leaders and medical experts. downing street said it has been called to discuss four key issues — gp services, emergency care, waiting lists and delays discharging patients into social care. speaking yesterday, the prime minister said that the demands on the nhs were currently enormous. in particular this winter, what we want to do is make sure we move people out of hospitals

into social care, into communities. that is one of the most powerful ways we can ease some of the pressures on a&e departments and ambulances that are waiting too long. labour criticised the timing of the meeting, saying health experts had already been sounding the alarm for months, while the liberal democrats described it as "too little, too late." the latest nhs data for england shows ambulance crews facing record delays at a&e, while the number being treated forflu and covid in hospital has also been rising sharply. jim reed, bbc news. our political correspondent damian grammaticas is in downing street. i don't know whether they can fix the nhs in a morning meeting today but they will do their best to try and improve things. but they will do their best to try and improve things. what but they will do their best to try and improve things. what do but they will do their best to try and improve things. what do we expect? and improve things. what do we exect? ~ ., , and improve things. what do we exect? ~ . , ., expect? well, what we will see are bosses from _ expect? well, what we will see are bosses from health _

that the government is not wanting to talk about, and they are saying until those issues are addressed all the problems in the health service will continue.— the problems in the health service will continue. ., «1 , ., ., ., will continue. thank you damian, no doubt ou will continue. thank you damian, no doubt you will _ will continue. thank you damian, no doubt you will follow _ will continue. thank you damian, no doubt you will follow developments | doubt you will follow developments through the morning, you can find out how your local services are coping. you can find out how your local services are coping this winter with the nhs tracker on the bbc news website. train passengers are facing yet another day of severely disrupted services as rail workers continue their second 48—hour strike of the week. you can find out how your local services are coping this winter with the nhs tracker on the bbc news website. train passengers are facing yet another day of severely disrupted services as rail workers continue their second 48—hour strike of the week. it's the fifth consecutive day of industrial action by either rmt or aslef members. helena wilkinson has the latest. another day, and yet more disruption for rail passengers. services across the network will once again be severely disrupted. the dispute over pay, jobs and working conditions has been going on for months.

now, train drivers, represented by the union aslef, have been offered a pay rise in a bid to stop the strikes. the deal includes a backdated pay rise of 4% for 2022 and a 4% increase this year. we want to get round the table and finalise. that's why we have put this offer out with the reforms that we are looking for, so we can expediate those talks and try and deliver something that will allow those strikes to finish once and for all, and get our customers our back with us, and making sure that we protect the railway for the future. but aslef has told the bbc its officials haven't seen the offer yet. last month, the rmt union rejected proposals involving the same pay offer, which was conditional on changes to working practises. on monday, there will be meetings between the rail minister, industry representatives and union leaders. as attempts to find a solution continue, it's passengers whose lives have been disrupted,

and today they are being told to only travel if absolutely necessary. helena wilkinson, bbc news. prince harry is facing more criticism over claims made that he killed 25 taliban fighters during his service as a helicopter pilot in afghanistan. in his memoir "spare", he describes them as "chess pieces removed from the board". our reporter zoe o'brien is outside buckingham palace this morning. commas comments have been condemned by the 258 ban and senior figures in the british military. the reaction is coming thick and fast.- the british military. the reaction is coming thick and fast. yes, good morning to — is coming thick and fast. yes, good morning to you- — is coming thick and fast. yes, good morning to you. as _ is coming thick and fast. yes, good morning to you. as you _ is coming thick and fast. yes, good morning to you. as you say, - is coming thick and fast. yes, good morning to you. as you say, harry | morning to you. as you say, harry wrote in his memoir that is due to be released on tuesday, that he saw those 25 taliban fighters as chess pieces, it is fair to say that this

has caused real disappointment, anger and upset for many in the military community, we have heard from ex—colonel tim collins, he told force news this isn't the done thing in the army he said he has badly let the side down and you never count notches, as you said this is something dominating the front—pages of our news papers because of the widespread anxious earthquake we have heard from senior officials in the taliban, and he said you may have seen them as, as chess piece bus they were men with families to go home to, prince harry does write in the book this isn't something he is proud of, but he also says it isn't something he is ashamed of. we haven't had any statements, any responses at all from buckingham palace or kensington palace, that is not unusual at this stage. we know that the royal family hasn't decided to comment now but there will be

more coming out in the coming days so tomorrow evening, 9pm there is a prerecorded interview to promote that book coming out on itv and itvx on monday morning there be that book coming out on itv and itvx on monday morning there he shows in america showing exclusive interviews can harry, the royal family will decide whether or not they respond publicly. 50 decide whether or not they respond ublicl . . decide whether or not they respond sublicl . . ., decide whether or not they respond ublicl . . ., ., so much more to come, thank you. ukraine has accused russia of breaking the temporary christmas ceasefire which its own president, vladimir putin, had supposedly ordered. orthodox christians celebrate this weekend. hugo bachega is outside a monastery in kyiv. hugo, it will be a very different christmas for ukrainians — but the danger of the last ten months continues? yes, good morning, it is a very different christmas here in this country, it is now 10.10 in the morning, we are here a kyiv�*s iconic

monastery, and this is the siege of the ukrainian orthodox church which has links to russia. it is a symbolic day because the service is being led by leaders of the orthodox church, it gained independence in 2018 so lots of people are celebrating this day here, some are saying this marks ukraine's independence from the russian church, so very symbolic moment and obviously as i said, the war continues and president putin ordered this ceasefire, in his words, to allow people living in plailss where fighting is happening, to allow them to celebrate this day, but the reports from ukrainian officials say that russian forces in some parts have continued to attack ukrainian positions, the governor of the region of luhansk said this ceasefire was a lie, that nothing

had really changed in his liege so some fighting continues to happen between the russians and ukrainians in some partings of the country, despite this ceasefire dismissed by the ukrainian authorities. thank you huo. thank you hugo. a six—year—old boy is in custody after shooting a teacher at a school in the us. police were called to richneck elementary school, in the city of newport news, virginia, following what they call an "altercation" in a first grade classroom. the teacher — a woman in her 30s — is receiving hospital treatment for life threatening injuries. the us republican party has finally succeeded to elect a speaker to the house of representatives — after 14 failed attempts this week. kevin mccarthy finally got the job — which is one of the most powerful positions in american politics — after winning the latest round by five votes. the victory follows four days of republican in—fighting, with a faction of hardline right wing members refusing to back mr mccarthy.

a man escaped with minor injuries after he crashed and then flipped his car inside a drive—through car wash in pennsylvania. the 77—year—old lost control of his vehicle and crashed through a gate, after accidentally hitting the accelerator pedal. he was trapped inside the car for 90 minutes before being rescued and taken to hospital. here's chris, with a look at the weather. what is that red sky in the morning cheapest warning. naga was complaining half an hour ago. that is sun like me. _ complaining half an hour ago. that is sun like me. about _ complaining half an hour ago. that is sun like me. about the - complaining half an hour ago. that is sun like me. about the picture l is sun like me. about the picture looking too _ is sun like me. about the picture looking too gloomy. _ is sun like me. about the picture looking too gloomy. i _ is sun like me. about the picture looking too gloomy. i gave - is sun like me. about the picture looking too gloomy. i gave you l is sun like me. about the picture l looking too gloomy. i gave you an ooh. it is lovely. _ looking too gloomy. i gave you an ooh. it is lovely. that _ looking too gloomy. i gave you an ooh. it is lovely. that was - looking too gloomy. i gave you an ooh. it is lovely. that was chris, | ooh. it is lovely. that was chris, not the picture. _ ooh. it is lovely. that was chris, not the picture. behave! - not the picture. behave! you are dead right. the saying is red sky in the morning shepherd's

warning, this is kent, the far south—east, what molest of you will haveis south—east, what molest of you will have is not the red skies but these grey skies, we have cloud and rain on top way, for most of us this morning but it will be followed by brighter conditions, here is our area of low pressure. this band of cloud working in, the red skiesjust there on the front edge, but if you are in kent you have all of this still yet to come through, and there will be a bit of rain, particularly in parts of wales, south—west england, indeed a number of flood warnings, 34, the majority across south—west england, we five in wales and another couple in scotland as well. so a windy start to day, gusts 65mph round the headlands none south—west england, inland gusts 40, 50 for some, the strongest winds are just running ahead of this band on rain on the way to kent. so we will get that wet weather, we will see brighter skies working in from the west. blues trishowers in the

afternoon and the wind will start to strengthen in the north—west, so a second area of strong winds developing later on. temperatures will be about eight to 11, that is mild for the time of year, the area of low pressure parked to the north—west. it will continue to feed in showers and the blues trip winds continue, that stops the weather from getting the weather cold. tomorrow, well it is going to be another unsettled day. the same area of low pressure on the chart, still with a fair number of isobars across the uk, and it is of course the pressure field that gives us the winds. so the strong winds will be with us throughout the day. gusty, sunshine and shower,le a least they don't last too long, it will blow through quickly but the showers will come through thick and fast in the north—west, merging to give longer spell, gusty for the north—west of scotland, temperatures not really

changing too much, highs ranging from seven to about ten degrees celsius sunday. monday, the low pressure is still with us but it is weakening, so it won't be as windy, plenty of showers round, again longer spells of rain in the north—west and the temperatures still generally in that range of round six to ten degrees but deeper in the week it stays unsettled. ex pelt more rain but it will stay on the mild side. average in london is seven, it will be up at 13 on tuesday. that is the latest. thank you chris. let's get back to our top story now, and those emergency talks in downing street to try to improve what some in the nhs are calling the worst health care crisis in decades. the situation in a&es is particularly acute, with many hospitals having to treat patients in ambulances and turn corridors into makeshift wards. our health correspondent gill dummigan was given exclusive access to whiston hospital in merseyside to see how staff and patients are having to adapt.

another morning in a&e. this morning we have come into 31 patients in the corridor and four patients on ambulances. 85 patients are waiting for a medical bed, so these are patients that have been seen in a&e and by medical doctors and are deemed to need to stay in, they need further care on a medical ward. unfortunately, there aren't any medical beds available at this moment. this winter has seen the creation of a newjob, the ambo team, dedicated to looking after patients can't even get into the building because they are so full. every ambulance that arrives, they will get a triage nurse and obviously myself or another doctor will go out and have a look and see what we can do. we are giving them the same care that they would get inside the building, so any blood tests, x—rays, treatments, anything they need, toileting, food, drink, everything we will do, literally we are taking ourselves out of the a&e

and into the ambulance. i would say we're lucky today that we have managed to get people in in the spaces, the last couple of days have been trying. multiple — 17, 20 ambulances out here with patients for hours on end. we have moved someone into 15. the staff say patients are kept safe but still it is not a situation anyone wants. if you told me 12 months ago, six months ago i would be doing my shifts in the car park i wouldn't have believed you. it is not ideal and it is not acceptable, but it is the best we can do for them. i think we are all struggling with that. the trust is having to expand other services as well, building a new kitchen in a&e, patients now get regular hot meals. the corridor is now formally organised like a ward. we have numbers on the ward so we can tell where the patients are. we resisted that for a long time because we didn't want to say that the corridor was actually

a place, but we have had to do that, so gradually the corridor is just becoming the emergency department. i work in a longer, thin emergency department that used to be called the corridor. a few years ago this would have been inconceivable, now it is day after day, patients are waiting for hours, sometimes days, to get out of here and into a ward and a bed. it is terrible, horrible, just awaiting and the just waiting and the waiting and waiting. bill has been here for two weeks but tells me the first two days were in a&e. it was mainly trying to go to sleep as much as you could, you know, i would doze off and then you would wake up, you would be moved up a place. but like all patients who spoke to me, bill had nothing but praise for the staff. they are doing an amazing job out there, they are great, aren't they? no badness, nothing. i can't praise them enough.

bill is now on a ward that is for people who should be getting orthopaedic surgery, things like hip and knee replacements, but so many others are sick, many with flu, but a lot of those surgical beds are needing to be taken over. they are so poorly they must commit to a surgical ward, we are filling two—thirds times of our surgical wards, one is completely changed into award to support flu patients, and that inevitably has a knock—on effect for getting operations done. in other words, people whose surgery may have been delayed several times may be facing an even longer wait. we are so sorry for those patients who are having things deferred because we know they are in pain and struggling at home but these are things — the difficult decisions we make in unprecedented times. and yet so many of these precious beds are housing patients who don't need or want to be here. 70% of the medical patients on this ward today could go home today if the social care package was in place, but it isn't.

they talked about a respite, never heard of it but you going to the respite and you have a bed for, you know, for other patients. bill needs temporary care while authorities find a new housing after recently discovering his rented bungalow is infested with rats. they won't let me go back to the bungalow see, so haven't been there since may, not because it can't be lived in, you know? everyone is waiting for a place in care, for a bed, for the situation to somehow improve. it is inspiring and awful at the same time, inspiring because just watching people who say, ok, today we have to dress like this and everyone says, ok, we will do like that and people just adapt, but it is awful. because the experience for the patients, people are getting what they need but it isn't such a terrible way. it is heartbreaking really. gill dummigan, bbc news. we're joined now by saffron cordery, the head of nhs providers,

which represents nhs hospitals and ambulance services. saffron, good morning to you, we are talking to you in pacing stoke to you won't bit a downing street for this meeks. —— basingstoke. latte you won't bit a downing street for this meeks. -- basingstoke. we heard esterda this meeks. -- basingstoke. we heard yesterday this — this meeks. -- basingstoke. we heard yesterday this was _ this meeks. -- basingstoke. we heard yesterday this was happening, - this meeks. -- basingstoke. we heard yesterday this was happening, and - this meeks. -- basingstoke. we heard yesterday this was happening, and it l yesterday this was happening, and it is important that the prime minister, the secretary of state is thinking very urgently about this solutions that need to be put in place. to focus on getting us through what is going to be an incredibly difficult couple of months ahead. we know it is really challenging out there, i suppose my thoughts on that meeting are we urge them to look beyond just urgent and emergency care and beyond just elective recovery, those routine operations and waiting lists and think about the wider nhs, that is where some of the solutions will lie. ~ . ., , .,

where some of the solutions will lie. ~ , ., ., lie. when it comes to solution, when we ive lie. when it comes to solution, when we give out — lie. when it comes to solution, when we give out government _ lie. when it comes to solution, when we give out government statements| lie. when it comes to solution, when i we give out government statements in response to criticism about its actions or lack of actions as somebody�*s having accused it of, we are told about £500 million that was put towards, announced in september, to help tackle the crisis at the immediate end and yet there are reports that money hasn't reached the front line what can you tell me about that?— about that? yes, that is what we have heard _ about that? yes, that is what we have heard from _ about that? yes, that is what we have heard from our _ about that? yes, that is what we have heard from our member, i about that? yes, that is what we i have heard from our member, that money was announced some time ago, but it is only in the last few weeks we have seen some of it being passed through, so i think some of these delays in process really don't help when we are talking about real lives being affected by those challenges, so, you know, ithink we being affected by those challenges, so, you know, i think we do also need to think about the fact that it is not going to be national solutions that solve this, it is about giving local organisations and areas the freedom to do what they need to do in order to overcome

challenges that they face, because in some place, it may well be giving community services access to those ambulance patients and stopping them actually being treated by ambulances and treated in a different way that might work in one area but in another area it may well be that discharge lounges are the solution to help the flow of pay shippeds, so i think we have to recognise that it is also about enabling trust leaders on the front line, and those leading systems locally, to be able to do what they need toe do. is systems locally, to be able to do what they need toe do.— what they need toe do. is that a ma'or what they need toe do. is that a major change — what they need toe do. is that a major change to _ what they need toe do. is that a major change to the _ what they need toe do. is that a major change to the system - what they need toe do. is that a - major change to the system though? does that completely change the chain of command for example, and is that a revolution in the system? of the system? i that a revolution in the system? of the system?— the system? i don't think it is a revolution. _ the system? i don't think it is a revolution, it _ the system? i don't think it is a revolution, it is _ the system? i don't think it is a revolution, it isjust _ the system? i don't think it is a revolution, it isjust about - the system? i don't think it is a l revolution, it isjust about taking revolution, it is just about taking a step further, if we think back to a step further, if we think back to a very difficult situation, we found ourselves in in in terms of covid, where i think it is fair to say they

the nhs was in a significant crisis, dealing with something it hadn't dealt with before, when we are were in the midst of dived what came to the forewas local innovation and local responses to an incredibly challenging situation, supported by a nationalframework challenging situation, supported by a national framework and challenging situation, supported by a nationalframework and i think thatis a nationalframework and i think that is what we have to see, when we have a focus which is very much about a national diktat that says everybody must do that that isn't going to work every where that is not to say that hospital leaders don't need some national changes to be made. for example, we could really help the challenges across staffing in the nhs, by changing the pension rules for senior staff, across the nhs, which we have seen doctors the and consultants leaving the nhs in their droves because of pension issue, we could, for example see the government come to the table to think about the challenges round

the staff that are striking and really start to have a proper conversation about what needs to happen, with nhs pay. 50 conversation about what needs to happen, with nhs pay.— conversation about what needs to happen, with nhs pay. so sorry to interrut, happen, with nhs pay. so sorry to interrupt. are _ happen, with nhs pay. so sorry to interrupt, are you _ happen, with nhs pay. so sorry to interrupt, are you saying - happen, with nhs pay. so sorry to interrupt, are you saying that - happen, with nhs pay. so sorry to interrupt, are you saying that if. interrupt, are you saying that if pension changes come, in say they have this meeting and they say we will compromise on the pension changes we will change the pay offer or you know, the pay agreement on the table, will that make a change immediately? because the prime minister has made clear and downing street has said, easing the immediate pressures while focussing on the long—term improvement of the nhs is one of his key promises but silt the immediate pressures we are focussing on at this moment in time. yes, i understand that, and i think that there are two things that it is responsible to believe do right now, one is to focus on those very immediate pressures are, but we also have to take any opportunity to stop this situation happening again, and thatis this situation happening again, and that is what we also need to focus

on, so, we need to make sure that come this time next year, we aren't in the same situation with hospital staffing and nhs staffing, we aren't in the same situation in terms of capitalfunding for in the same situation in terms of capital funding for bricks and mortarfor buildings capital funding for bricks and mortar for buildings which are dilapidated across the nhs, we aren't in to a same situation where mental health services aren't being adequately invested in. there are a whole host of issues it would be prudent for a government that is still going to be in power in this time next year, potentially, you know, it is peru dipped for them to look at what —— prudent, medium term slugs as well as the solutions in front of us, we have to take that seriously. front of us, we have to take that seriousl . ~ ., front of us, we have to take that seriously-— seriously. what do you hope will come out of _ seriously. what do you hope will come out of this _ seriously. what do you hope will come out of this meeting - seriously. what do you hope will| come out of this meeting today? seriously. what do you hope will. come out of this meeting today? i think a key issue that needs to come out of the meeting today, is to fix

the twofold challenge of both discharging patients from hospitals, so yes we have had talk of the £500 million but we need to see really rapid focus on how social care and services in the community work, we also need to see a commitment to increasing bed capacity across the nhs, because we are actually significantly horrible phrase, we are under#3weded compared to other european countries, —— underbedded. so we are short of beds, physically short and the staff to support them. those from two things that would make a significant difference. thahk make a significant difference. thank ou so make a significant difference. thank you so much — make a significant difference. thank you so much again _ make a significant difference. thank you so much again for _ make a significant difference. thank you so much again forjoining - make a significant difference. thank you so much again forjoining us - make a significant difference. thank you so much again forjoining us on breakfast. you so much again for 'oining us on breakfast. ., 1' you so much again for 'oining us on breakfast. ., «1 , ., thank you. it's a huge weekend for the technology industry as the annual consumer electronics show — known as ces — takes place in las vegas. it's a chance for thousands of companies to display

their new gadgets in the hope of securing investment, but this year all russian firms have been banned from taking part, while some ukrainian ones have been paid to attend. our north america technology reporterjames clayton has spoken to some of them about the difficulties of trying to start a company when your country is at war. ukraine has spent nearly a year now facing attacks across the country. bombings, the targeting of infrastructure and black outs. so how do you run a tech company at a time of war? well, 12 ukrainian companies have come here to las vegas to prove that it can be done. ces is the biggest tech show in the world, a chance for these start ups to attract investment. this is the ceo of g—mac, a home security company. it is a sort of amazon ring on steroids. multi—tone sound siren with an annoying effects not

fighting against a much larger military force has often taken ingenuity, this group of entrepreneurs are trying to show that innovation isn't just limited to the battlefield. james clayton, bbc news, las vegas. it is just after half past eight. the new book by prince harry, we'd still be waiting to hear what prince harry had to say in his new tell—all memoir — had his book launch gone to plan. however, it hit the shelves in spain four days ahead of schedule — and we've now had time to read and digest some of the experiences he describes. let's speak now to katie nicholl who is the royal editor at vanity fair. good morning, thanks for taking the time to talk to us this morning. i suppose the question is, why do we, why should we care what is in this

book? ., �* , why should we care what is in this book? .,�*,. . , why should we care what is in this book? . �*, . ., , why should we care what is in this book? . �*, ., ., , , ., book? that's a really good question and i'm not — book? that's a really good question and i'm not quite _ book? that's a really good question and i'm not quite sure _ book? that's a really good question and i'm not quite sure how- book? that's a really good question and i'm not quite sure how to - book? that's a really good question. and i'm not quite sure how to answer it. do we really care that the king does yoga in his underpants at val morroreally care that prince harry suffered frostbite to his nether regions? i'm pretty interested by revelations that he wasn't actually prince william's best man at the 2011 wedding where we saw him accompany william and charles for the wedding of the decade. it is packed with the most extraordinary anecdotes, insight, and i think, personal and intimate conversations. i'm referring to the competition between charles, william and harry after the funeral of prince philip, which certainly those members of the royal family would have expected to stay secret, and therein lies the controversy in all of this, has had a sold out? that is the big question people are asking themselves after reading all the exerts, taking up a

course of coverage and of course their time. course of coverage and of course theirtime. ii course of coverage and of course their time-— their time. if you look at the -a ers their time. if you look at the papers today. _ their time. if you look at the papers today. a _ their time. if you look at the papers today, a lot - their time. if you look at the papers today, a lot of - their time. if you look at the i papers today, a lot of criticism about what you said about the number of taliban fighters who killed, a lot of the family laundry he has been sort of aiding in public, which you havejust alluded been sort of aiding in public, which you have just alluded to. whatever sympathy there was for prince harry and his wife, is that no evaporated? i think it is evaporating on both sides of the atlantic. if you look at the us, they have always been very sympathetic to harry and meghan, they have celebrated the homecoming of megan as the duchess of sussex, had it as their hero prince, there are soldier prints, a are soldier prints, but to break the unwritten rule you don't brag about how many soldiers who have killed in theatre, he has notjust alienated

his own family, his blood family, which he absolutely has done in all of this, he has alienated his second family, the military. i have interviewed many people over the years who served with prince harry and they thought he was wonderful, they thought he was a brilliant soldier, but there is a real sense within the military community that he has also let them down, so you do have to wonder at what cost is this all come for prince harryis millions of pounds richer in the bank, this was a lucrative multi—million dollar book deal here, but what has he lost in the process of all of this? he speaks about wanting to reconcile with his family and i think we will hear more of that in the forthcoming interviews over the next couple of days that he was giving with cnn and itv, but i think actions speak louder than words and his actions and his words suggest he wants nothing like reconciliation with his family. nothing like reconciliation with his famil . 1 , ., nothing like reconciliation with his famil. 1 . «1 nothing like reconciliation with his famil. 1 ., «1 family. are you talking about the reaction in _ family. are you talking about the reaction in america, _ family. are you talking about the reaction in america, which - family. are you talking about the reaction in america, which is - reaction in america, which is interesting, as you say it has always been supportive and you are

right, reading a piece in the times this morning talking about the way the us media has dismissed the royal revelations as gauche, and a particular quote talking about the people the prince is now surrounded by, talking about the betrayal and inverted commas of his military family, his own family. is he being exploited by persons unknown who may be we are not aware of? you exploited by persons unknown who may be we are not aware of?— be we are not aware of? you have to uestion be we are not aware of? you have to question who — be we are not aware of? you have to question who is _ be we are not aware of? you have to question who is advising _ be we are not aware of? you have to question who is advising him - be we are not aware of? you have to question who is advising him at - be we are not aware of? you have to question who is advising him at the . question who is advising him at the moment. i have covered the royals for 17 years and prince harry particularly, as you can imagine, i was very much there during those years he was falling in and out of nightclubs, lashing out at the paparazzi, with the rails, and he was so well protected by that brilliant palace machine, that machine, that pr thatjust protected him. he has lost and leaving the royal family him. he has lost and leaving the royalfamily means him. he has lost and leaving the royal family means he's lost the back—up of the palace and comes across as very vulnerable and very

exposed. he is surrounded by a lot of people who only say yes. where were the friends, the people who truly knew him to pass that manuscript to incompetents who might have said, actually, perhaps you have said, actually, perhaps you have gone a bit too far here, perhaps this is not the right thing to do. and you get the sense there isn't anyone like that around him, and to quickly reflect on the reception in america, i really do think there has been the swing in public support, and of course that is concerning to harry and meghan, they are in california where they have set up this alternative rival royal court, and they need america's support. but at the moment i'm not sure they got, the americans at the moment even feel harry has crossed a line... fin moment even feel harry has crossed a line... . ., ., moment even feel harry has crossed a line... _, ., ., ., line... on continuing that train of thouht, line... on continuing that train of thought. the _ line... on continuing that train of thought, the telegraph _ line... on continuing that train of thought, the telegraph saying i line... on continuing that train of thought, the telegraph saying all this had a negative impact on the green's health in the final months

maybe at chesterfield, gillingham or stevenage tomorrow. there wasn't a surprise in the opening match, though, as everton's poor form continued, as they were knocked out by mancheter united, who became the first team to make it through, with their seventh consecutive win, as andy swiss reports. one of football's form teams against one of its most out—of—form teams. manchester united against everton looked lopsided on paper and the favourites were soon in front. commentator: rashford going on the outside! and sliding in was antony! three minutes gone, 1—0 to united. it looked all too easy. that was until one of the great goalkeeping gaffes. maupay! oh, and it's gone in! conor coady the scorer but it was all down to david de gea — a moment the united keeper would probably rather forget. but after the break, everton's luck ran out. first, an injury to alex iwobi saw him stretchered off and united

promptly regained the lead, thanks to another clanger. taking on coleman... going past him as well and goal! coady once again on the scoresheet but this time in the wrong net. then, just when everton thought they'd equalise through dominic calvert—lewin, var ruled it out for offside. before to cap it all, they conceded an injury time penalty, which marcus rashford coolly dispatched. victory for united, then, but for everton's under—pressure manager frank lampard, another defeat in what's proving the most difficult of seasons. andy swiss, bbc news. one of the biggest gaps between two teams in the cup today, will be at gillingham. the club, bottom of league 2, host premier league leicester city, who won the cup two seasons ago. it is a chance for the hosts who haven't won a league match since the 1st of october to forget their troubles and cause a huge upset. it's live on bbc one at 1230, and having lifted the trophy

in 2021, the leicester manager has a thirst for glory again. i'd love to do it again, we have had that magical season and day, but we want to keep writing the new history of the club, and have more magical moments, so the cup competitions of course give us the opportunity to do that, so we go there in the beginning of ourjourney and hopefully it gets through and we can keep progressing. there are 22 more third round games today — including fa cup holders liverpool in action. they face wolves in an all—premier league tie. but they'll do so, without their main defender, virgil van dijk. the dutchman has been ruled out for a month, because of a hamstring injury. managerjurgen klopp says it's time for the next man to step up, and play their part. for now, he's not available and that's how it is and we have other centre—halves, as long as that's the case.

everything is ok for the team but for virgil, obviously, it's hard for him. he played incredible amount of games over the last years, to be honest, and so now, we cannot use him on the pitch at least but only off the pitch, we will do that. a huge blow for tennis, ahead of the first grand slam of the year, the australian open. the world number one, spain's, carlos alcaraz, won't now be part of it because of a leg muscle injury, which the 19—year—old picked up, in preseason training. alcaraz was hoping to add another grand slam title to his collection — after winning the us open in september and says on social media, it's tough, but he will recover and be back soon. it was all about england fly—half owen farrell in rugby union's premiership, last night, — as he helped saracens snatch a late win against gloucester. but the headlines aren't all positive. gloucester felt farrell should have been sent off — after this high tackle onjack clement. the decision wasn't reviewed — and with the last kick of the match, farrell did this —

to give saracens a 19—16 victory. what a kick from distance but farrell could still be cited for the tackle — and a future ban could mean he misses some or all of the six nations — as england's new head coach, steve borthwick, gets ready to name his first squad in just ten days' time. when it comes to non league sides causing fa cup shocks, borehamwood's story is worthy of an oscar. the team based in the town famous for its elstree film and tv studios is competing in the third round for the third year in a row. once again they are the lowest ranked team left in the competition and today host accrington of league one. i went to borehamwood this week to reflect on the impact their fa cup dramas are having. eastenders theme tune.

the best shows run, in the shadow of the queen vic studios that films shows like eastenders and strictly now has its own sequel. borehamwood are doing it once again in the fa cup! after last season's heroics when borehamwood won at places like bournemouth, the non—league side are now creating more fairy tale storylines that scriptwriters would be proud of. it is astronomical, massive for a club our size to go on this run. they have done it once again, borehamwood are making a habit of this. knocking out bristol rovers, earning a place in the third round for the third season running, and continuing to enthrall the town's most famous faces. it is in fantastic, _

incredibly proud, you often see the team popping up for lunch and i always say hello, they are incredible. _ one of the biggest things i is that my dad's best friend, mickjackson, who unfortunatelyj isn't with us any more, he is still the top goal—scorer for borehamwood and he played for over 20 years, - so, yes, proud. for the chairman who himself worked in the film industry for years before football, it is another tear—jerking plot just like last season at the club that his father wants managed. laughs. when you get like that you want to cut all the world. that is the greatest feeling i've ever had in my life, we reunited the town, you have to be careful, don't get too choked up, you know, because i can remember, you know, when i was seven,

eight years of age with dad, mowing the patch, painting the stands, and all sorts, so there are a million memories. during the pandemic the chairman remortgaged his house to keep staff employed and the club together, and is now reaping the rewards. last year's fa cup run, including a fifth round tie on national tv up at everton brought him £1 million among the chairman to spend double that — some of the team, the rest on the infrastructure — the ground including the aptly named oscars suite where memories of the films he worked one dawn the walls. as he now celebrates a new kind of golden ticket. the film industry gave me everything, really, it gave me the best to buy the club, the base to build the club in an image that i wanted it, and the fa cup has sort of given me a platform to move the club on to another level. it is notjust in the oscars suite where fans can feel the permanent

legacy of the fa cup heroics, there is a fan zone funded as well, look at this, in true movie fashion in keeping with the town's industry there is a montage of memories of the fa cup runs behind the terrace and also in the area that fans can feel closer to the team. there are nods to the film industry everywhere here, it feels like that story, we want the hollywood ending. it starts, you know, everyone made fun of me, borehamwood, but then we beat bournemouth, they know who i am now, they know borehamwood, i am proud as a person to be part of this. strictly speaking, the pride is shared by some of the stars who work in the town. come on, borehamwood, be fabulous! it can even be a 10 from me. # good luck, borehamwood, move the ball from foot to foot. # score early because it is never too early for that ten from shelley.

and if they can beat accrington today, they can be rewriting the script for another blockbuster. eastenders theme. it is the glorious fa cup, we know there is an upset coming, it is just, will it be here at five o'clock on saturday night? if the accrington team are watching they will have something to say about that, aiming to prove it is not a hollywood film or a script from eastenders, its reality, football, they are the ligue one side, they should when, on paper. i wonder... let's see how the weather is looking. chris has the forecast. it depends where you live, we have a

band of rain crossing the country, and is that clear stereo we are going to eventually see the sky is bright enough. we saw brightness earlier in kent, brightness on the way, a wet and windy spell we will have this morning. the afternoon looks dry and bright with some sunshine. quite a few showers across western areas, low pressure moving in, the band of cloud bringing the rain at the moment across scotland, england and wales. it has cleared the for northern ireland, so here we will see some brighter weather. the rainfall totals built up this weekend across western areas, we have a number of flood warnings and for the moment, 35, nine of those in force across parts of wales and scotland, 26 across parts of england, particularly around dorset. it has been one day this morning, 65 mil progress in the south coast, the strongest wind ahead of this band of rain, that continues to push eastwards then comes the brighter weather with some sunshine, then come the showers, and they will be frequent across western areas, day

with another swathe of strong winds working into the north—west with gales. temperatures, highs of 8-11 c, still gales. temperatures, highs of 8—11 c, still on the mild side for the time of year, even if those centres are down on what we have had over recent days. overnight in it, showers continue to feed and on the gusty winds, stopping temptress from falling too far, a frost free night with lows between around four and a degree celsius, and tomorrow the same area of low pressure is still firmly in charge of weather, lots of isobars across the pressure field makes the wind blow in the first place, so it will be a windy day again, sunshine and showers, the shares merging together to give some longer spells of rain across the north west, but otherwise the showers across england, wales and northern ireland should blow through pretty quickly with sunshine soon returning after those passing downpours. gusty winds across inland areas, quite windy especially for the north—west of scotland, looking at gales, temperatures not changing

much from today into tomorrow. another showed a kind of day, the winds won't be as gusty, but some of the showers, staying unsettled, rain at times best sums up and stays on the mild side. back to you. question unrelated to whether, what bicycle did you have when you were a little boy? i did you have when you were a little bo ? . . , , . did you have when you were a little bo? . ., ., ., boy? i always wanted a raleigh cho er, boy? i always wanted a raleigh chopper. never— boy? i always wanted a raleigh chopper, never got _ boy? i always wanted a raleigh chopper, never got one. - boy? i always wanted a raleigh chopper, never got one. i - boy? i always wanted a raleigh chopper, never got one. i had . boy? i always wanted a raleigh| chopper, never got one. i had a rally racer back, quite heavy. if you wanted one, we can give you a glimpse at the moment, you will enjoy this next bit. dreams can come true on breakfast. i do enjoy this next bit. dreams can come true on breakfast.— true on breakfast. i do love a good cho er. if you were a child of the 19705, the chances are you will have

wanted this bike — the iconic raleigh chopper. it was designed by tom karen, who died a week ago, but his many achievements — which go well beyond the chopper — are being celebrated in a museum all about him. helen mulroy went to find out more. it's arguably tom karen's most famous piece. the raleigh chopper, an icon of the '705. it was the bike every youngster wanted to find under their christmas tree and its appeal and place in popular culture spanned decades. all right by supergrass plays. it featured in supergrass's1995 music video, starred in the chase scene in the moviejumanji. raleigh needed to try and compete with an american bike called the schwinn, which had very curvaceous tubes. whatever we did, it would have a big wheel and a small wheel because the big wheel shows

where the power comes from, you know? like dragsters, who had big tyres at the front. the combination of that made the chopper the success it was. the chopper saved raleigh from bankruptcy. 1.5 million of them were sold worldwide. but cambridge designer tom karen didn'tjust design bikes — he was behind the reliant scimitar when he was the managing director at the design house ogle. he also designed the bond bug, which, after a little bit of tweaking at the ogle factory in letchworth, became a landspeeder in the 1977 star wars film a new hope. all these things on display here at the micro museum about tom karen in letchworth garden city. there's even a replica of his cambridge living room. and here, ifind josh tidy, who's the curator of this exhibition. josh, sadly, tom passed away on new year's eve but his designs, his legacy will live on forever. yes, absolutely.

the breadth and quality of his design really being celebrated on show here. if you are a certain age, he designed half your childhood. but as well as the chopper and the bug and those high—profile things, he really designed all sorts of everything, from lorries for leland, vans, he designed a popemobile for the visit of john paul ii in 1984. he designed for four decades but really struggled to retire. he described himself as having a butterfly mind that never stopped. a huge body of work and a real legacy there. another one of his designs you certainly will probably remember, the 19705 marble run — a toy that, 50 years on, continues to delight children even now. helen mulroy, bbc news. we're joined now by raleigh chopper enthusiast brian pendlebury, who is also the owner of this bike in the studio.

good morning. welcome to breakfast with naga munchetty and rogerjohnson. our headlines today. tackling the crisis in the nhs. prime minister rishi sunak is holding emergency talks with health leaders about how to ease pressure on the service . to ease pressure on the service. the majority of train services across the uk are cancelled as the rmt union continues its 48 hour strike. prince harry faces more criticism for comments in his book about killing taliban fighters. good morning on the weekend often famous for fa cup upsets. and bottom of the league gillingham, have a chance to cause an almighty third round shock, when they host former winners leicester this lunchtime.

hello, good morning. we are looking at at wet and windy start to day. the worst of the rain will blow through and come the afternoon the weather will brighten up with spells of sunshine but there will be lots of sunshine but there will be lots of blustery showers today, particularly across western areas, i will have the full forecast for you a bit later on. it's saturday the 7th of january. our top story. the prime minister is holding emergency talks at downing street — to try to tackle the huge challenges facing the nhs. senior doctors say the health service is on a knife edge, with many a&e units struggling to cope with increasing demand. our health correspondent jim reed reports. the nhs is under record pressure this winter, with queues of ambulances delayed outside hospitals, rising waiting lists and more front line strikes planned in the coming weeks. sue spent 16 hours in her local a&e, after turning up recently with chest pain. to be honest with you, i was just,

i wanted to get out. ijust wanted to get out, because i felt i was safer at home than in the hospital. i didn't feel confident — not that they didn't know what they were doing, there just wasn't enough people to do what was necessary. today's meeting, called the nhs recovery forum, will involve ministers from both the health and treasury departments along with nhs bosses, council leaders and medical experts. downing street said it has been called to discuss four key issues — gp services, emergency care, waiting lists and delays discharging patients into social care. speaking yesterday, the prime minister said that the demands on the nhs were currently enormous.

we have had talk of the £500 million but we need to see really rapid focus on how social care and services in the community work, we also need to see a commitment top increasing bed capacity across the nhs. labour criticised the timing of the meeting says health experts had been sounding the alarm for months while the legals described it as too little too late. data shows ambulance crews facing record delays while the number being treated for flu and covid has been rising sharply. our political correspondent damian grammaticas is in downing street. damian, we understand the meeting is due to start fairly soon. what do we expect from it? the sun is rising, easier to see if anyone has arrived for this meeting? it has been pretty quiet here so far, but as you say we expect chief

executive, clinical leaders from the nhs, from the private health sector 20 come here for this forum today, it is billed as something sharing best practise and ideas, to try and speed things up but what you can say is what we are seeing here is the political pressure on the government to be seen to be doing something in the current crisis, the situation, the current crisis, the situation, the nhs is in, so, perhaps this can have a galvanising effect but doctors are saying they share best practise as it is and the big issue that nhs unionping health unions, they identify and say is the critical issue, is the one that is not being discussed today, and that is about the deep discontent in the health care sector, in staff, pay, conditions, staffing levels, the reasons we are seeing the strike, there will be more strikes next week

n the ambulance service, the junior doctors, balloting for strike, nurses and more strikes coming up, government will be meeting with the health unions on monday, but it will not even then be discussing this year's pay, that is the issue that the unions really want to see addressed and say is the issue that can change this year's strike, it is not what is being discussed today, todayis not what is being discussed today, today is this meeting of managers and leaders, to try to find ways to speed things up in the system. ok. speed things up in the system. ok, damian, speed things up in the system. ok, damian. thank— speed things up in the system. ok, damian, thank you for that. ok, damian, thank you for that. you can find out how your local services are coping this winter with the nhs tracker on the bbc news website. train passengers are facing yet another day of severely disrupted services as rail workers continue their second 48—hour strike of the week. it's the fifth consecutive day of industrial action by either rmt or aslef members. helena wilkinson has the latest.

another day, and yet more disruption for rail passengers. services across the network will once again be severely disrupted. the dispute over pay, jobs and working conditions has been going on for months. now, train drivers, represented by the union aslef, have been offered a pay rise in a bid to stop the strikes. the deal includes a backdated pay rise of 4% for 2022 and a 4% increase this year. we want to get round the table and finalise. that's why we have put this offer out with the reforms that we are looking for, so we can expediate those talks and try and deliver something that will allow those strikes to finish once and for all, and get our customers our back with us, and making sure that we protect the railway for the future. but aslef has told the bbc its officials haven't seen the offer yet.

last month, the rmt union rejected proposals involving the same pay offer, which was conditional on changes to working practises. on monday, there will be meetings between the rail minister, industry representatives and union leaders. a5 attempts to find a solution continue, it's passengers whose lives have been disrupted, and today they are being told to only travel if absolutely necessary. helena wilkinson, bbc news. prince harry is facing more criticism over his claim that he killed 25 taliban fighters during his service as a helicopter pilot in afghanistan. he described the experience in his memoir "spare". our reporter zoe o'brien is outside buckingham palace this morning. zoe, prince harry has been condemned by the taliban but also senior figures in the british military.

yes, well we know that harry has written in his memoir that he saw the 25 taliban fighters that he killed as chess pieces, to be wiped off a board, killed as chess pieces, to be wiped offa board, and it is killed as chess pieces, to be wiped off a board, and it is those comments that really have attracted criticism and it is fair to say there is a lot of upset and disappointment among the military community. and it really is dominating as you say the headlines today. we have heard from ex—colonel tim colin, a retired commanding officer he told force news that harry has let down the side. he said you never count notches on a rifle but we have heard from senior taliban leaders who said they might have been the enemy but they were men with families. harry writes in his book it isn't something he is proud of but he isn't ashamed of it either. we haven't heard anything

from kensington palace or buckingham palace today, they haven't responded, that of course is not unusual, but there is more to come, we know that harry has taken part in a series of prerecorded interviews, the first of those will go out at 9.00 tomorrow night on itv. that he says he wants reconciliation with his family but first truth and accountability. he has spoken to american network channels, that will go out on monday morning, the royal family will have a decision to make then about whether or not they will publicly respond.— thank you zoe. a six—year—old boy is in custody after shooting a teacher at a school in the us. police were called to richneck elementary school, in the city of newport news, virginia, following what they call an "altercation" in a first grade classroom. the teacher — a woman in her 305 — is receiving hospital treatment for life threatening injuries. the us republican party has finally succeeded to elect a speaker to the house of representatives — after 14 failed attempts this week

kevin mccarthy finally got the job — which is one of the most powerful positions in american politics — after winning the latest round by five votes. the victory follows four days of republican in—fighting, with a faction of hardline right wing members refusing to back mr mccarthy. ukraine has accused russia of breaking the temporary christmas ceasefire which its own president, vladimir putin, had supposedly ordered. orthodox christians celebrate this weekend. hugo bachega is outside a monastery in kyiv. hugo, it will be a very different christmas for ukrainians — but the danger of the last ten months continues? millions of people across the country are celebrating orthodox christmas, one of the most important daysin christmas, one of the most important days in the ukrainian calendar, and this is an important day here, at this is an important day here, at this monastery, this is the siege of the ukrainian orthodox church which has ties to russia and today for the

first time the christmas service here is being led by leaders of the orthodox church of ukraine which is an dent church, it gained independence four years ago so this is a moment celebrated here, it is a sniff kent moment, some people have said this is a christmas miracle, some people who are here today told us they believe this is the day that is marking ukraine's independence from the russian church. this day is obviously happening as the war continues, president putin announced a unilateral ceasefire to allow people in his words to celebrate orthodox christmas, in parts of the country where fighting is happening. now some ukrainian officials say that russian forces have continued to attack ukrainian positions, in some parts of the country, especially in the east of the country, and the ukrainian authorities had dismissed this announcement by pruert as cynical

propaganda but i think for those gathered heard today, this is a moment of reflection, to mark an important day orthodox day orthodox christmas. concern is growing for a couple who have gone missing with their newborn baby after their car broke down on a motorway. constance marten and mark gordon left the car near junction four of the m61 near bolton on thursday night. greater manchester police believe contance had recently given birth and neither she nor her baby have seen medical professionals. they're appealing for information. a man escaped with minor injuries after he crashed and then flipped his car inside a drive—through car wash in pennsylvania. the 77—year—old lost control of his vehicle and crashed through a gate, after accidentally hitting the accelerator pedal. he was trapped inside the car for 90 minutes before being rescued and taken to hospital.

here's chris with a look at this morning's weather. morning to you. that lovely picture is much more pleasing to the eye. what, than me? well, no, than the dark and stormy clouds you were offering earlier on, like at the picture, i ignored you as i am going to continue to do as you give us the forecast. can't argue with that. this morning we have a band of rain on the way, we had a lovely start to the day in kent, but it is not lasting, instead across scotland, england and wales we have this rain fanned will come through, the afternoon looks better, we will see afternoon looks better, we will see a mixture of sunshine and heavy shower, the satellite picture shows the area of low pressure bringing this band of rain, northern ireland starting off with brighter weather, this speckled cloud, shower cloud is waiting to come in and it will turn

wet here as well. it has been a windy start to day. gusts of 65mph round the coast of south—west england u up over the north york moors, the strongest winds have been running in ahead of this rain band, which will continue to swing eastwards, then comes that brighter weather with sunshine, there will be showers and a second swathe of strong winds develop developing late in the day across the north—west with gales developing here, temperatures, on the face of it a bit down on what we have seen, but still mild for the time of year, eight to 11 degrees celsius. overnight tonight the area of low pressure bringing this weather slow—moving and it will continue to feed showers in. it will stay blustery and windy and the strong winds stop the temperatures from falling very far so a frost—free night. temperatures reaching lows of four to seven. tomorrow, the same area of low pressure is with us, we have a lot of isobars, it will be another windy day but it's a day broadly seeking of sunshine and

showers, now, the showers across northern ireland, england and wales shouldn't last too long because they get blown through on the gusty winds so if you get a downpour the sunshine will return quickly but in scotland, in the far north—west we are more likely to see a persistent area of rain, it will be gusty with gusts perhaps reaching 50 or 60mph. some other relatively mild day. temperatures not changing much day—by—day, seven to ten the highs for tomorrow. the low pressure begins to weaken and move away on monday but still a showery kind of day. in the north—west we will see rain, a bit of snow up over the scottish mountains so good news for the scottish ski resorts here, temperatures about seven to at the picture in the new week we have a lot of cloud, weather systems rattling in, so it stays windy rain at times and on the mild side.

is still discussions going on about how it will be used, and i think thatis how it will be used, and i think that is the challenge here, these figures are really interesting and making announcement is the easy hit. making announcement is the easy bit. it is getting that money into the sector, and making sure it gets to the front line that is missing, 50, the front line that is missing, 50, the announcements can be made but we seldom see anything at the front line, and i think that is the tragedy in all of this, because it gives a perception all this money is being invested in social care, but you talk to any provider and they will tell you we have not seen it, it goes to various... will tell you we have not seen it, it goes to various. . ._ will tell you we have not seen it, it goes to various... sorry there is that figure — it goes to various... sorry there is that figure of _ it goes to various... sorry there is that figure of £7.5 _ it goes to various... sorry there is that figure of £7.5 billion - that figure of £7.5 billion available to support adult social care and discharge, how should that be used if it is not being used yet? well, i think they from the to start talking to the social care sector both at a local and national #4re68 and there has to be more synergy between the communications that local authorities and the nhs have

between ethemselves, and with the providers,er i know since i first raised this at the start of the year, providers telling me they have got beds, they have spare capacity and they have the staff, to deliver it. but they are not getting calls from the local hospitals because the nhs hospital discharge teams are reliant on the local authority teams, and there are, there is a plethora of misinformation out there so we have to get this right, the communication between the nhs and the providers, who could deliver needs to get much better. latte the providers, who could deliver needs to get much better. we spoke to saffron cordery, _ needs to get much better. we spoke to saffron cordery, the _ needs to get much better. we spoke to saffron cordery, the interim - to saffron cordery, the interim chief executive of provider, we have spoken to you both many times and she spoke about changing the chain of command so local authorities have more control, which kind of alludes to what you were saying, do you agree with that kind of strategy? i think that is right, i think the

communication needs to be much better, there has to be more liaising between the two in some local authorities, will is a amazing relationship with social care providers, in others it is a very much dominant lead scenario, what we need is to get round a table, look at the solutions and what i want to make clear is social care is the solution to much of what is going on out there. the thing about discharge is you can discharge people out of hospital, but you have to have a wrap round service, out there in the community, to support the care service as well, so if somebody needs additional mental health support, they need to have that in place quickly, you know, i have been party to information round somebody who was discharged and because it was on a friday, there was no gp record for them, they had to be registered on to the gp market. we can't have that because that puts

additional pressure on the care service, so let us get the whole thing right, so that we have that infrastructure in place, we have the wrap round service in place and we can only do that if the nhs talks to the providers, let's get this right, and keep that case open for a bit, so the provider can go back to the nhs, and say, actually this is happening, 24 has happened, not for long, for three, four days so we can start to create that confidence, and sustainability of what ever methodology we put into place. i asked the same question to saffron cordery who has not been invited that meeting. you have not been inviting either we are talking to you from kent. what one thing do you think could come out of this meeting, what are you optimistic about? i meeting, what are you optimistic about? «1 ., , , about? i think the optimism here will be there _ about? i think the optimism here will be there is _ about? i think the optimism here will be there is a _ about? i think the optimism here will be there is a meeting - about? i think the optimism here will be there is a meeting but -

about? i think the optimism here will be there is a meeting but it i will be there is a meeting but it has to be a meeting that has actions that can be put into place because i think what happens is meetings for the sake of meetings which look great, just no good to anybody and they have been happening for some time, and i think you know, red command and all these things are terminology, let us get the right people round the table, talk it through and be realistic about what we are putting out there as the funding, so it reaches the front line, we want to be able to pay, as you saw in that piece, we want to be able to pay our staff more, we want to be able to recruit people so they know they will be paid more than the national living wage or whatever it might be, we cannot keep people at that rate, so it has got to be funded, it has to be funded properly so we can support the new zealand, but let's look at social care, as an entity in its own right. how do we make it sustainable, make it work with all the pressures we have all

got, ratherthanjust think with all the pressures we have all got, rather than just think of it as something to talk about and go and do something that has already been planned. i don't like that, let us not have a plan and try and reach it. let us have rah meeting, plan and then make it happen. —— have a meeting. and then make it happen. -- have a meetint. ., «1 i. and then make it happen. -- have a meetint. . «1 i. .. and then make it happen. -- have a meetint. ., «1 ., ., , meeting. thank you for 'oining us this morning * meeting. thank you for 'oining us this morning on h meeting. thank you for 'oining us this morning on the _ meeting. thank you forjoining us this morning on the programme. | thank you forjoining us this morning on the programme. after being captured by russian forces and sentenced to death, aiden aslin's family thought they would never see him again. he'd been defending the city of mariupol when he was captured in april — but a prisoner exchange between ukraine and russia meant he was able to return to the uk in september.despite what he's been through, aiden plans to return to ukraine — but not to the front line. he's been speaking to our reporter sarahjulian. we were under siege for about 1.5 months. by that time, we had run out of ammunition. we had run out of food. mariupol, a city heavily

bombed and shelled, flattened by russian forces. aiden aslin was captured while fighting with the ukrainian marines. he took these photographs before his captivity. i chose to surrenderjust because, like, i couldn't see it realistically that we'd able to get out. probably safer for me to, like, surrender than be captured by soldiers in the adrenaline phase of, like, fighting. i got separated from my unit and then, i was taken to, like, further into donetsk and then, that's when i started getting interrogated, start3ing getting beaten. started3ing getting beaten. but once they, like, sentenced me — sentenced me to death, that's when i, like, started thinking, like, now they've done it, they've to do something. otherwise, they're gonna look like they're not as powerful as they say they are.

so it definitely took its toll on me, like, mentally. and i think it wouldn't be till september time — by that point, i was, like, pretty, like, stopped caring about stuff and pretty at a low point. aiden's family campaigned for months for his release. what do your family think about you going back there? they must be so pleased to have you back in newark. what do they think? i think they already knew i wanted to go back because i've lived there. obviously, they're a bit worried because of the ongoing situation with the war. the idea is — is to go back and i want to, like, do some focus on, like, the journalism side of stuff. because i still believe there's, like, quite a lot of people don't understand about ukraine and there's a lot of things that don't get really reported about as much as they should be. it's nearly a year since the start of the war and aiden feels there's only one outcome. the war that putin wanted didn't go the way that he intended for it to go.

it's hard to say. i don't think ukraine's gonna throw it, because, like, they've done a lot more than anyone thought they would do. so, you see victory for ukraine? yeah, pretty much — especially with, like, how long they've been, like, holding out against russia. when he returns, aiden's made a commitment not to take up arms again. i promised my fiancee i wouldn't go back to, like, soldiering. like, that — that was, like, a big promise i made to her. i said i still want to go back to ukraine, though, because it is my home. like, i've been there for, like, four years with you and her family is there so for me, i think the important part is just to get back to ukraine and just do what i can. so, even after months in captivity, aiden's hopeful for the future of ukraine and for his future in the country he now calls home.

someone waking up this morning will be across the back pages tomorrow, when the lower leagues can dream. we know there will be an upset summer, a fairy tale story. but it wasn't to be for frank lampard, and everton who were hoping the cup would give them some relief from their premier league problems. they were up against in form manchester united, at old trafford, marcus rashford...who worked his magic to set up anthony, afterjust three minutes but then a moment of madness from united keeper david de hayer, gifted everton and conor coady scored an own goal, in the second half, before marcus rashford sealed the win with a late penalty to ensure its manchester united who are the first team through.

last night, as england fly—half owen farrell, kicked a wonder drop goal, as saracens snatched a late win against gloucester. but gloucester were left feeling frustrated as they felt farrell should have been sent off — after this high tackle onjack clement. the decision wasn't reviewed — and with the last kick of the match, farrell did this — to give saracens a 19—16 victory. what a kick from distance but farrell could still be cited for the tackle — and a future ban could mean he misses some or all of the six nations — as england's new head coach, steve borthwick, gets ready to name his first squad in just ten days' time. there's been another medal for great britain at the skeleton world cup in winterberg. matt weston has won bronze to take gb's tally to seven. weston's british team—mate marcus wyatt, who won gold in the season opener in canada, just missed out finishing fourth. and beckham is back in the premier league, sort of. romeo beckham — son of david — hasjoined brentford's b team on loan from inter miami two,

"i had a blue chipper. cycling around clapham park, streatham and other parts of south london with my friends. loved it!" and julie cook sent us this picture of the chopper—teers. they rode from london to paris on choppers last september to raise money for mnd association. that is fantastic. they are not long—distance bikes. no, i did it on a hybrid and the road bike riders looking at me... if you do it on a chopper... looking at me... if you do it on a chopper- - -_ chopper... heading uphill on a mashed potato, _ chopper... heading uphill on a mashed potato, isn't - chopper... heading uphill on a mashed potato, isn't it? - it's estimated that a car is stolen every six minutes in the uk — and an increasing number of them are the pricier models. interpol says more

and more high—value cars are being taken in the uk and then shipped to africa for re—sale, particularly in countries where they drive on the left. that's exactly what happened to anthony and danielle wilson's range rover after it was taken from their drive in essex, as gabby colenso reports. this is the moment thieves stole anthony and daniel wilson's range rover. it only took them one minute. as you can see, they are caught on cctv creeping onto the driveway as the family slept inside the house in hatfield broderick with their three—year—old son. police had said there was a chance i had been followed because they had obviously got in without the keys — maybe they cloned a key or found a way to get into it when i had been out and about, and i never really go anywhere except with my toddler so it must�*ve been then. ifound it scary, and the more i thought about it, the worse it got. when you watch the cctv,

it's almost incredible that someone walks up to the car and 63 seconds later is driving an expensive car down the driveway, having never seen the keys in theirlife. the tracker inside the range rover rang the police and said it was being stolen before the signal suddenly disappeared. one month later, it was found inside this container at tilbury port on its way to africa. came to the whole container and ended up between eight and ten stolen vehicles, some of them value up to £100,000, the whole of one of the jobs is £1 million of stolen cars in one hit. since the covid pandemic and the cost of living crisis, thefts have been on the rise. in 2022, essex police managed to recover more than 600 cars, compared with 480 the year before, many of which are stolen to order and destined for overseas. we recovered vehicles which have literally been cut in half — they are only interested in the front half of the vehicle that contains the engine and ancillary components — the most valuable part. the rest of the vehicle would be crushed and disposed of.

interpol says vehicles like these often end up in congo or countries such as kenya or uganda because of the demand for right—hand drive vehicles. the organisation is now working with african ports to help clamp down on the crime which, it says, has become too easy for criminals. a5 for the wilsons, they are still deciding whether or not to replace their car forfear of it happening again. gabby colenso, bbc news. neil thomas is a former detective inspector for west midlands police, who now runs a company that tracks down stolen cars. it is this happening more and more or are we noticing it more? latte it is this happening more and more or are we noticing it more?- or are we noticing it more? we are noticint it or are we noticing it more? we are noticing it more — or are we noticing it more? we are noticing it more morbid _ or are we noticing it more? we are noticing it more morbid it - or are we noticing it more? we are noticing it more morbid it is - noticing it more morbid it is happening more and more, the value of kaiser is now is really high, thieves making tens of thousands, hundreds of thousands if not millions —— the value of cars. you millions -- the value of cars. you would think— millions -- the value of cars. you would think these _ millions -- the value of cars. you would think these cars _ millions —— the value of cars. you would think these cars have really good security systems, so how are more and more being stolen? the

come for these areas, speckled cloud follows, sugar clouds moving on from the west, all the west, although well it stays very windy and this morning we a gust of wind of 65 mph around the coast of south—west england, 54 over the top of the north york moors and the strongest have been ahead of this rain band, continues to work its way eastwards over the next few hours, then comes the sunshine, lots of showers today across western areas and a second swathe of strong winds working into the north—west with gael�*s again developing here later in the day. temperature is about 8—11 c, overnight stays one day, there will be further cherished for many areas, per project in the north—west where there will be frequent and heavy showers. it is not that cold overnight, frost free, temptress between about 4—7 c. tomorrow we have the same area of low pressure in the charts and lots of isobars over the british isles, we are talking about another windy day, but

at least that means we are reducing to showers and downpours, they won't last very long in any one place for northern ireland, england and wales, and moving through sunshine comes out for another few moving through sunshine comes out for anotherfew hours. moving through sunshine comes out for another few hours. for north—west scotland, the showers come together to give longer spells of rain and it will be particular one day, gusts could reach 60 mph, whereas elsewhere generally into the 30 miles an hourfor gusts, temperatures not changing very much between this afternoon and tomorrow afternoon, hides between 7—10 c. a low pressure starts to move away northwards on monday, won't be as one day, but there will be a fair few showers around, some longer spells of rain coming into west scotland, northern ireland and the north west of england, with a bit of snowfall over some of the highest scottish mountains, probably above 600 metres elevation so some of the ski resorts to see more snow in scotland. the rest of the week looking uncertain, rain at times, but it stays very mild. temperatures 14 in london, the average for this

time of year seven. thank you, have a good one. many of us will remember queuing up in the local amusement arcade to play the likes of space invaders, donkey kong or pac—man. computer games have moved on since then but the nostalgia for those arcade classics still remains. so much so that one man has set up a museum dedicated to them. our reporter steve knibbs went to meet him. i'm having a real nostalgic kick here, the games, the lighting and sound, we have asteroids, berserk, defender, frogger, many names you will recognise, and of course space invaders, but there is one arcade game here that really set the standard. this is atari's pong from 1972,

the first successful video game in history. it's so recognisable. most people probably remember playing this on consoles at home. bricklayer by day, but arcade aficionado at all other times, alex has built up an incredible collection. for us kids, this looked like it came from outer space, it was so alien and new, it was the first game to hold a high score, so it got players playing competitively against each other. and most people know i'm a massive star wars fans so i'm getting a huge nostalgic kick from this. heading for the death star. it was amazing when this came out. where did all this start? right back to when i was a kid, the nostalgia of queueing up for hours to play space invaders,

and then i had a collection at home, and then an opportunity to open up new museum. it was something ijumped at. i loved chatting to people about arcade machines and the games and i love to see people playing the games as well. alex and his colleagues are also bringing old games back to life and they don't all have screens. this is a real gem, sega's gunfight. back in 1962, one of the very earliest type of machines before they moved to video machines, so this was using pinball technology. the arcade archive is open on friday nights and saturdays for gamers to rediscover how it all began with just some buttons, joystick and a pocket full of 10p, but once you've bought your tickets all games are on free play, so i will see you later, in fact, much later. a starry night sky can be quite a spectacular view — but you might have noticed those stars are getting harder

to see. that's because light pollution from our towns and cities is having a major impact. now the uk's first laboratory has been set up to look at how it's affecting our health, as well as nature. professor nick dunn is leading the research and hejoins us now. good morning, this is a different take, we have spoken about light pollution and being take, we have spoken about light pollution and being able take, we have spoken about light pollution and being able to take, we have spoken about light pollution and being able to see take, we have spoken about light pollution and being able to see the stars but this is about how it is affecting others and nature and our environment. affecting others and nature and our environment-— environment. absolutely. so artificial light _ environment. absolutely. so artificial light at _ environment. absolutely. so artificial light at night - environment. absolutely. so artificial light at night is - environment. absolutely. so artificial light at night is a i artificial light at night is a wonderful thing, completely revolutionised the way we live and work, but it comes at a price. in terms of damaging human health, disrupting wildlife, wasting money and energy, contributing to climate change and of course, as you have just been sitting in your introduction, it limits our access to starry skies. what we are doing at the dark design lab is using design research to develop new ways

to capture that environmental data, and new forms of communication, so we can share the issues. perhaps many of the viewers won't even know what the scale of this problem is, and that's the point, really. light pollution has shot up in the last couple of decades, and even the last five years it has come up threefold in most places around the world, and fourfold in some metropolitan areas. there is another dark skies lab in the uk but yours is the first looking at the health impacts. that is ritht. looking at the health impacts. that is right- what _ looking at the health impacts. that is right. what are _ looking at the health impacts. that is right. what are you _ looking at the health impacts. that is right. what are you expecting i looking at the health impacts. that is right. what are you expecting to| is right. what are you expecting to find? what — is right. what are you expecting to find? what we _ is right. what are you expecting to find? what we want _ is right. what are you expecting to find? what we want to _ is right. what are you expecting to find? what we want to look - is right. what are you expecting to find? what we want to look at - is right. what are you expecting to find? what we want to look at is i is right. what are you expecting to i find? what we want to look at is how nocturnal activity _ find? what we want to look at is how nocturnal activity impacts _ find? what we want to look at is how nocturnal activity impacts on - find? what we want to look at is how nocturnal activity impacts on both i nocturnal activity impacts on both human beings but also other species, so we know already that when you have a very disturbed nights' sleep, a person feeling groggy and not great the next day, long—term exposure to artificial light at night can cause all types of problems, cardiovascular, cancer,

we to make a significant change? latte we to make a significant change? s definitely have an option and i think that's the important thing. this is not about going backwards in time, we will not also having candles and sit in way. if we zoom out for a second, the international dark sky association is a global association and network seeking to to protect the night sky for current and future generations, and only last year the uk chapter was formed, so the international dark sky association uk that i also work for is now finding ways to promote effective and positive change. what this is really about, to answer your question directly, is about options and choice. people don't realise the seriousness of light pollution. we need better, more responsible, sensible lighting, so it's thinking about how we later homes and streets, ratherthan about how we later homes and streets, rather than wasting their energy. it is certainly not some kind of regressive thing where we go back to the dark ages, no pun intended.
