this one looked to be the same. a penalty gave georgia stanway theirfirst, delighting the excitable young fans. the floodgates were opened. a solo run from chloe kelly and it was two. it is a brilliant fast start! england were enjoying themselves now. they quickly scored a third before the ball fell to laurenjames. and it's james! herfirst england goal. a winning start to the competition and the year for the lionesses. their unbeaten record still intact. jane dougall, bbc news, milton keynes. now time for a look at the weather with darren. hello there, the winds are going to be strengthening overnight and it is going to be very windy by tomorrow morning, particularly across northern parts of the uk and in scotland, over the pennines and north—east england, there could be some travel disruption and may some damage. it is all due to an area of

low pressure that will be deepening overnight as it runs across northern parts of scotland. it sweeps down into scandinavia. it is the first named storm of the season, otto, named storm of the season, otto, named by the danish met service. tomorrow morning, this is the peak of the wind and the rain from overnight replaced by showers with wind gusts of 80 mph in the northern isles. elsewhere in scotland, 60—70 mph and similar gusts over the pennines and very gusty winds to the east of the pennines as well. the wind gradually eases down during tomorrow and that cloud and patchy rain sinks down into southern parts of england and wales. sunshine develops elsewhere. the showers become fewer in scotland as the wind continues to ease during the afternoon. another mild day, nine in scotland, 13, 14, even

afternoon. another mild day, nine in scotland, 13, 1a, even 15 across south—eastern parts of england. in northern ireland, a cloudy afternoon with rain. and weather front and an area of low pressure comes in overnight bringing some wet weather, not especially windy. some rain across northern areas and briefly snow over the scottish mountains. most of the wet weather is out into continental europe by saturday, leaving behind some dribs and drabs of rain that will move northwards into the central belt. to the north, some sunshine, to the south, some sunshine and clout and maybe one or two showers. breezy across southern england but otherwise, the wind much lighter on saturday. another mild day. a quick look at the second half of the weekend, some more rain, particularly in scotland, brighter as you head further south and dries well. the wind picks up again during the course of sunday, especially in the course of sunday, especially in the north—west and temperatures not quite as high, 10—12. thank you for that. more analysis on the day's main stories with newsnight which is getting under way on bbc two. now, the news continues on bbc two. now, the news continues on bbc two. now, the news continues on bbc one as we join our colleagues across the nations and regions for all the news where you are. good night. hello, i'm hugh ferris.
10:33 pm
they've had many a high—profile meeting before, and while barcelona and manchester united would rather not both be in the europa league this season, they served up another exciting encounter this evening in spain. the first leg of their playoff tie finished 2—2, as dan ogunshakin reports. back at the scene of their greatest triumph. the 99 glory days might not be backjust yet, but the current manchester united cider building nicely. barcelona would represent a significant test under the eric ten hag. all in all, a positive first half, only a goal was missing. the goals would come, but barcelona struck the first goal. but this is marcus rashford's time. the school
10:34 pm
finish, the equaliser, and his driving run it ended withjules kuhn day turning them into his own net. they found the lifeline, finishing the touch —— putting the finishing touch with the classic. everything touch with the classic. everything to play for next week. dan ogunshakin, bbc news. i think we should have scored minimum four goals. you england women's first game of 2023 produced the kind of emphatic the kind of emphatic victory that characterised much of the previous year. the european champions beat south korea 4—0 in their opening match of the arnold clark cup in milton keynes.
10:35 pm
after georgia stanway�*s penalty had given them the lead, two goals in the first five minutes of the second half, including chloe kelly's just 20 seconds after the restart put them out of sight. laurenjames sealed the win with the best goal of the night. belgium and italy are the two other teams in the competition. with the opening game of the super leaves —— super league... leeds didn't score their first points until there were 20 minutes to go. they are already 30—0 up. they didn't score any points until there was 20 minutes ago. warrington finished second from bottom last year. wales head coach warren gatland says he won't back his players if they decide to strike instead of lining—up against england in the six nations. gatland insists he supports his squad's cause after welsh rugby's professional contract freeze, but says he wouldn't agree with them if they boycotted the game in cardiff a week on saturday. there's a meeting of the body representing players in wales next week,
10:36 pm
after wage cuts were proposed. i'm in complete support of the players in terms of the wlpa which, to me, in my time here has been incredibly weak as an organisation, and i've stressed on a number of occasions to the players that they need to be stronger, the need to have more voice, they need to be around the table from a consultation point of view. so, the fact that from that regard i think it's a huge positive for the players and that and that relationship with the union going forward, because they need to be part of all the discussions that take place. meanwhile, ireland lock tadhg beirne has been ruled out of the remainder of the six nations. the second row suffered an ankle injury in ireland's victory over france last weekend ruling him out of the upcoming matches against italy, scotland and england as the irish chase just the fourth us grand slam in their history.

tiger woods is playing at the genesis in los angeles having last competed injuly. he birdied the first hole against rory mcilroy. three—time champion jockey oisin murphy returned from a 1a—month ban with a win, riding jupiter express to victory at chelmsford. murphy was banned for breaches of covid rules and twice being above the alcohol threshold. he must undergo regular testing to ensure he remains sober and avoids drugs to continue to hold a licence. australia's women have all but cemented their place in the semi—finals of the women's t20 world cup with another emphatic victory — this time over sri lanka. the aussies restricted sri lanka to 112 for 8, with the moment of the match this leaping catch from grace harris. it wasn't nearly enough, as the five—time winners and defending champions went on to seal a ten—wicket win

10:39 pm
lara: when 3d printers first went mainstream, many imagined a world where some households would be creating missing pieces of board games or spare parts to fix their cars. the reality has actually probably been more impressive because we're getting 3d—printed houses and even 3d—printed body parts. and some of the latest trials involve printing bones for people who've had cancer. researchers at king's college london and clinicians at guy's and st thomas�* nhs foundation trust are collaborating on a project to help cancer patients like colin. i'd quite a few appointments, first of all. i had several tests and a biopsy, which then diagnosed me with cancer. you've got to look at
10:40 pm
what the alternative is if you don't have it done, isn't it, really? i mean, everybody says that word, �*cancer,’ so you imagine it can spread here, there and everywhere. in a number of cases of lung, bone or metastatic breast cancer, removing the area around the tumour means the need to take away some of the chest wall. but here, 3d printing is being used to help create something that can replace what's been removed. the way we reconstruct the chest wall is important to preserve the stability of the chest wall and to preserve the way and the breathing mechanic. before 3d printing, there were several different methods. the first one was to use the methyl methacrylate. it's been used by orthopaedics and thoracic surgeons for many years. this cement was modelled at the time of surgery on the patient, just to create a fixed area, like, to replace the ribs or the sternum removed at the time of surgery. then the 3d—printed started and we started to use the titanium. but prosthetics made
10:41 pm
from titanium are expensive, so this team has developed a novel way, using 3d printing. this is the 3d—printed model of the prosthesis. i place that into a box and then mix these two parts together. i pourthem over this plastic printed part. then once that silicone — like, the liquid silicon cures after about four to six hours, then i remove the printed part and that leaves a cavity in the exact same shape of the patient's anatomy, and that is then sterilised and taken into theatre. in thoracic surgery, when you are removing this area, rather than having three ribs, you are creating, like, a big square of cement. very good to protect your lung... yeah. ..but there was not a good functional result. so, moving from using the same material, you get the same kind of resistance because, you know, you can break it. but also, you have the flexibility, so when you are breathing,
10:42 pm
they can move. to me, it was new, putting something. foreign in your body. but when he explained it to me, it sounded more or less the right way to go. - so, from then on, i had a ct scan, which obviously gavel all the measurements for them to make the part, - which they did eventually make and it was implanted in me and i've not been. looking back since. the technology is helping us a lot to provide better surgery with better results for the patients, not only in terms of cancer resection, but also in terms of quality of life and cosmetic results, which, for me, are equally important for my patients. but there's a cost saving as well of nearly £1,000 per procedure, and the whole process is about to get even smarter. by next year, the aim is to directly 3d—print the ribs or sternum. so, instead of a whole process that requires a mould and everything along the way,
10:43 pm
it'lljust be made straight away in a material like this polymer, which is called peek, which can be sterilised and then used inside someone�*s body. i did ask at the time how long this material they use would last, and i was told it would last at least 200 years, which would seen me out here. but then, i never thought of asking at the time how strong that is compared to bone. but apparently, it's as good as bone, so... time will tell! shiona: being here really reminds me of when i was younger and coming for riding lessons, but i've not been on a horse in a very long time. so i'm interested to see how technology is helping people who are learning to ride a horse today.
10:44 pm
time to get back on the saddle, i guess. the team here at scotland's rural college have really embraced new tech, and by doing so, it's hoped it can benefit the riders as well as the horses. meet penny who will help me demonstrate. ok, let's go. first up, there are smart reins — they tell me how much pressure i'm putting on penny as she walks. so, what we're using here on this horse is a rein pressure sensor. there is a little box that sits on the top of the horse's head and it has two lights that will indicate your left rein and right rein. so, if you take any pressure on either rein or both reins, the colour will change. purple indicates low pressure and blue and red show medium and high pressure. they maybe have a problem
10:45 pm
where they have maybe one rein a little bit too higher than the other or one a bit shorter than the other, it can really help them to make those adjustments themselves rather than an instructor sort of having to tell them all the time. i have also tried on the biomechanicjacket, which helps me get my posture right, and makes it more comfortable for penny, too. initially, we look for a straight line from the shoulder through the hip down to the rider's heel when they're on the horse. we also look for a nice straight line from a relaxed shoulder and then a line from the rider's elbow through the hand, and right down through the rein to the horse's bit. anything different than that, you can restrict the way the horse is going and it can make it quite uncomfortable for the horse and sort of stops them from travelling forward. and so, how are you monitoring that using these fluorescent lines? so, what we do is we use a robot camera. it tracks the rider no matter where they go in the arena, and then they can review their riding position afterwards, discuss it with their instructor
10:46 pm
and then they can see maybe what is really good and what needs improving. and finally, we have the pressure mat. this mat sits underneath the horse's saddle. we can use it to help learn about saddle fitting initially, but also, it's great for detecting any abnormalities in position, and that pressure mat will pick that up, and then it transmits data to an ipad. these four bits of tech being used together mean students here are getting the most modern way of learning in an industry which has been steeped in tradition. and it looks like the college has their eyes on more tech for the future, too. got a question for you. would you like to eat and drink on a moving ride? no — why would anybody do that? good question. well, there's a new ride that's opened new ride that's opened at one of europe's largest theme parks, and who do we call on when there's a ride involved? ah, lj rich. exactly, so get ready for eatrenalin.
10:47 pm
how do you stop this thing? lj: when i was asked to try out a new theme park dining experience called eatrenalin, i wondered what could possibly be in store. well, i wasn't expecting this. turns out it's less a physical thrill ride and more an emotional and culinary experience. the food is augmented by visuals, lighting and music. meals with feels. i've kind of forgotten that i'm moving, but... ..i've still got this sense of...tranquillity. the story behind eatrenalin follows an ai who just wants to become human, while diners are leisurely transported through themed spaces.
10:48 pm
earlier in the day, i met co—founder thomas mack for a behind—the—scenes tour of the ride — or is that experience? so, welcome. here are our floating chairs. it's like they are breathing, they are being charged up. is it rollers or is it a cushion of air? so, the first idea was a cushion of air, but then it was too loud, so that was prototype number one. now it's all electrically driven. you have three different wheels, but also, the wheels we developed, the floating chair can move. the chairs use infrared sensors so they don't bump into anything, and run to a preprogrammed journey through the rooms. here, with this sort of movable chair, you're in complete control of your guests' journey. diners change formations throughout the two—hour experience, so each new course brings a new companion,
10:49 pm
which may or may not add to the enjoyment. the main event, though, is the food, which is typical of a high—end restaurant. i love going in the kitchens, because this is where all the real work's getting done. and this is amazing. you don't normally get this number of screens in a restaurant kitchen, but in fact it's telling people everything they need to know about the diners' food tolerances and even exactly where they're sitting whilst they're having the experience. do you come here often? it's my first time. at nearly 200 euros per person, eatrenalin is definitely priced as a high—end restaurant rather than a ride. europa—park aims to sell the concept to other parks and cities around the world, and it's hoping the experience will be attractive to those outside
10:50 pm
the amusement park industry. it's a bold ambition, and for a company used to exporting roller—coaster hardware, it's a very big move into uncharted territory. still not convinced — i think that would give me indigestion. nah, i thought it looked great. i'll take someone else then. fine. that's it for the shortcut of click for this week. the full—length version is waiting for you right now on iplayer. thanks for watching. we'll see you soon. bye— bye. hello there. after a relatively quiet but mild weather day on thursday, friday starts with something rather more turbulent. some strong winds,
10:51 pm
particularly across scotland, the tops of the pennines and the northeast of england. disruption to travel very likely indeed. it's all because of this area of low pressure that's been named by the danish weather service storm otto, because of the impact it's likely to have in denmark. but even for us, notice lots of white lines on that chart, lots of isobars. lots of white lines on that some very strong winds, not least across scotland. gusts of 80mph in exposed spots in the north for a time. more broadly, gusts of 65—75mph. but also very windy through the morning over the tops of the pennines and in northeast england. gusts, potentially, of 75mph here, so had for high—sided vehicles so for high—sided vehicles on trans—pennine routes, that could make conditions very difficult indeed. now, as we go through the day, the winds only slowly easing. this band of cloud and increasingly patchy rain sinking south.
10:52 pm
brighter skies following behind, but more rain later into northern ireland, and some showers at least for a time in scotland, and some of those will be wintry over high ground, because it will be a little bit chillier here. further south, another very mild day. now, as we head into saturday, we see this next area of low pressure pushing its way, and that will bring outbreaks of rain for a time. tending to clear quite quickly, i think, eastwards during saturday morning. still potentially a little bit of snowfall up over high ground. of snowfall up over higher ground. as we go through the day, fairly large amounts of cloud, but some sunny spells. temperatures ranging from 8 celsius in aberdeen to 15 in norwich — another mild day for most of us. as we move out of saturday into sunday, briefly this ridge of high pressure giving a drier interlude, but then this next weather system, this time feeding rain into scotland, some snow over the grampians and the highlands, certainly up over high ground. the further south you are, quite a lot of cloud around. some sunny spells —
10:53 pm
best of that for south wales and the south of england. still mild, maybe not quite as mild, but 8—12 celsius. as we move out of sunday and into monday, we'll see these various frontal systems just running across the north of the uk, some strong winds as well, but we will find ourselves in a wedge of very mild air to start the new week, so temperatures through monday and indeed into tuesday likely to be well above the norm for the time of year. with those frontal systems running across the north, we will see some rain, particularly in northern scotland, some patchy rain further south, but some spells of sunshine, too. and i suspect it'll be the sunniest spots that see the highest of the temperatures, maybe 15, possibly 16 celsius. similar weather set—up as we head into tuesday as well. quite a lot of cloud around, the odd spot of rain, but some very mild conditions out there, with temperatures between 13—15 celsius in many places. now, behind me you can see some slightly more unsettled weather. now, exactly how this part of the forecast will develop is open to a certain degree of question. through the middle part of the week, it is likely that in one way or another, we'll see some unsettled weather, some showers or longer spells of rain, and as that unsettled weather drops
10:54 pm
away southwards, we'll be left with something a little bit colder. now, at the moment, it looks like temperatures aren't going to fall dramatically. we'lljust go back closer to where we should be for the time of year. but there could be some frost at night, a bit of rain at times, some showers, but some spells of sunshine as well. bye for now. let mejust hear a bit more from the audience. the woman there in the white shirt.
