good evening — this is your update from the bbc sport centre. john w henry has today given an insight into liverpool's future plans and has ruled out a full sale of the club. his fenway sports group revealed back in november they were searching for investment into liverpool, and were also reportedly open to a full sale. henry has now told reporters in boston they won't be in england

forever, but aren't selling the club now. they are talking to investors and he believes something might happen in relation to that — but says it won't be a sale. the future ownership of manchester united has had a lot of attention over the last few days — with interest confirmed from qatar, as well as ineos founder sirjim ratcliffe. but the current owners, the glazers, might still have a part to play. it's thought us—based elliott investment management are offering to put together an investment package, that would allow the glazer family to retain some kind of interest in united. they've owned the club since a £790 million deal back in 2005, but are the subject protests by fans, unhappy with the direction under their stewardship back to liverpool's fortunes on the field now — they play in the last 16 of the champions league this week. jurgen klopp will go face to face with carlo ancelotti again tomorrow night at anfield — where real madrid are the visitors. last time they played was last season's champions league final in paris, which liverpool lost.

we played this final in paris and i did not watch it back since then into this weekend. the thing i realised does not know why we didn't watch back and i had to. because we played a good game we could've won the game and they scored at the end we didn't. but that's seven or eight months ago and that's a different team, same club, different team, different times. i can't wait to play the game but it's a tough place as well. we need to play super game. you need two super games. to get through but have no problem with that because if we don't play, our best, you don't have a chance. and that is the difference and it's pretty special. but i can't wait.

watford have moved up to fifth in the championship after a thrilling 3—2 home win against west bromwich albion. ken sema scored twice for watford — with his second goal going in via a deflection off erik pieters to aid the hornets�* bid for an immediate return to the premier league. west brom are tenth after a run of three league games without a victory. the uk is among 30 countries that have pledged support to an ongoing ban on russian and belarusian athletes, competing in international sporting events amid russia's invasion of ukraine. it follows a summit involving all 30 nations earlier this month, including france, germany and the united states. the international olympic council is "exploring a pathway" for athletes from the two nations to compete as neutrals. but uk culture secretary lucy frazer says the ioc�*s plans are "not credible". super league champions st helens have arrived back from australia today after defying the odds to win the world club challenge. they beat penrith panthers in sydney to become the first british side to win in australia in almost 30

years — as adam cottier reports: if winning four super league titles was not enough, now they have in their grasp a trophy that signifies a monumental achievement for the sport of rugby league in this country. arriving home from sydney today, there was a huge sense of pride among the centre team. with the self belief within the group work, we always knew what we capable of doing that and hard—working group can compete in the day and we can compete with the very best and we have shown that. they have shown this because the world cup challenge saw them overcome the panthers and the champions and the rugby league recognised the biggest

and richest in the world. and as the victory was sealed with the goal from lewis. st helens became the first english club to win the world cup challenge since the warriors in 2017 in the first to win it in australia for 29 years. i think there was a bit of a mark—up down there. and it hasn't quite sunk in yet to be honest because we got on the plane the day after and with the group has achieved just not just this year but the last couple of years and icing on the character of mort the boy so they've done for the past couple of years. for the head coach, it was the first game in charge and is replaced them tasked with carrying on the work of the australian as st helens now turn their attentions to attempting to win an unprecedented fifth success of super league title. there will always be a bit of a pressure but it's- been successful and so, -

for us to win the first trophy for him, one for one it is. iand i'm super happy for him and now| we have to come back and do a header on the super league in 2023 now. a precedent for super league they hope their triumph down under will set a precedent for super league for years to come in the latest defence of the domestic title begins in the castleford tigers. india are through to the semi—finals of the women's t20 world cup after beating ireland in a rain affected match in south africa. they won the toss and some big hitting from star player smriti mandhana saw them heading for a big total, but ireland fought back three wickets from captain laura delany saw them restrict india to 155 from their 20 overs. the irish needed a good start but lost two wickets in the very first over. they did reach 5a for two, before the heavens opened. and the umpires said no more play was possible. india winning by five runs via the duckworth—lewis method.

that's all the sport for now.

there's something very big and bright going on in north london. come on in and we'll show you. this is an exhibition called luyang netineti. chinese multimedia artist luyang takes us on a journey through their weird world, the company by avatars created using motion capture and 3d game engines. what i like is the artist has created all—new video games in the classic style but they've retrofitted them to existing

arcade game hardware. how are you doing over there? oh, i'm glad this isn't an actual motorbike — i crashed into something i'm not meant to! is that a good thing or a bad thing? oh, this really takes me back to a time when i'd turn up to a place like this with a pocket full of coins, ready to do battle with space invaders, ghosts and centipedes. that was, of course, until home computers and then, home games consoles came along, which meant i didn't need to go out any more. these days, you don't even need to be tied to your home to be a gamer — you can just use one of these. yeah, the mobile gaming industry is huge. it's worth £120 billion and it's growing, and it's freed us all up to play on the go — in bed, on the bus, even on the loo. oh, you don't, do you? no, i absolutely don't. good. well, steffan powell has been to the unlikely city at the heart of the mobile gaming world. when you think of the cities of the world that are hotbeds for innovative tech,

you're probably imagining silicon valley, tokyo or maybe singapore. you might not be thinking of this place. but it's these streets here in helsinki, a cityjust the size of glasgow, that house some of the most innovative, influential and successful mobile games companies in the world. this place is home to some of the best games talent out there. so, how has this happened? who better to start giving us answers than someone with over a decade of game—making experience? well, nokia is an obvious answer — the big name in the 1990s. yeah, the heritage, yeah. yeah. it actually showed the example that, you know, we could build something big from finland orfrom helsinki, because we didn't do — as i said, like, we didn't really have any, like, big publishers or studios. we don't need the connections

with the publishers. we don't need to travel the other side of the world. we canjust do it, like, from here, with nokia's support. does the fact that there was such a successful mobile product from finland encourage people from finland to want to stay in that space? yeah, of course, yeah, because i think that was the example — like, you can actually make it big. people here do seem proud of the city's success in mobile tech, always happy to chat about it in bars and cafes. but heritage and goodwill only get you so far. well, this is really kind of where we have... reaktor is a company that helps tech businesses, game studios included, makes sure they have the right infrastructure in place to succeed. i think we're just generally very interested in technology. i'm sure that you could also then say that that comes from some, like, war background or something back in the day but then, i think in very many ways, it's about the cultural sort of situation that we've had here — that essentially, finns,

we have this ability of — and it's in the culture — that we can try and then we can fail and then we try again. you don't have to worry about failing. and when you don't have to worry about failing, you're obviously much braver. and then also, the government is supporting gaming companies a lot. nobody wants to come to helsinki because of the climate, for example, so we have to have other reasons to attract people here. this blend of history, public investment and talent chasing is working for helsinki. the 200 game studios here made £2.8 billion in 2022. now, to put that into context, the games market in the uk was worth £4] billion in the same period — but that's a country with a population 12 times bigger. finland is punching well above its weight here. but really, it shouldn't be a surprise. the first—ever angry bird was flicked across the screen of an ipad in this city. last year, netflix said it was setting up its first—ever internal games company

here because it has some of the best talent in the world. and then, there's supercell. supercell are a giant of the mobile game space, responsible for some of the most famous titles in the world. and it's a man from scotland who's in charge of arguably their most celebrated, clash of clans. yeah, ithink, you know, like, many people, i remember playing snake on the nokia 3310. what a game! yeah, you know, and heard that it's a finnish company and, you know, working in the mobile games industry in particular, you know, kind of be aware of, like, all these great companies that were based in finland. finland wasn't that wealthy a country not that long ago. people had, like, computers, maybe, but not, like, consoles and things. people were like — just the pc and they maybe weren't the best computers at the time, either, so it led to this kind of like cool kind of demo scene of trying to make the most of not very much. people hear — you know,

they heard so much about the stories of companies like supercell that have been, you know, very successful and really punching above their kind of their kind of weight for, you know, a country this size, so i think, you know, people know it's more of a thing, you know? maybe back in the uk, when you sort of said you're working in games, you get more of this, "0h, so you just play "games all day" kind ofjoke, and you're like, "uh, no," you know? i think people here, like, respect it as, like, a real, important industry. now, cities in the uk won't be able to replicate that nokia heritage but there are plenty of lessons here that show big things can happen in small places. in the heart of scotland, this is a city packed full of history. stirling is somewhere many people from all over the world choose to come and visit. itjust so happens to be the place where i grew up.

but today, i'm forgetting everything i know about this place to become a tourist again — with the help of this. because stirling now has an augmented reality layer to its streets, allowing visitors to explore and learn about its history. you get directions to different historic attractions, it lets you explore more around the city, inspect information about each building, get who built it, when it was built — all those sort of things that you might be wondering as you're walking around but you actually get to see that in a visual way. it's using google geospatial anchors, so what that does is it anchors the augmented reality experiences direct to pinpoint accuracy within the city. 0n the ground there, on the cobbles, it says the new port gate. this is an old gate that used to block off the city. click on this coin and then, it recreates it in front of you. incredible. the app is free to use but developing it has cost the local council £200,000.

they're hoping that will prove worth it. our economy relies upon visitors, especially of tourism. the key thing about the app is the fact that you cannot view, you know, everything that it has to offer from your home or from anywhere else in the world — you physically have to be here and you physically have to move around stirling, which also impacts the businesses as well. for stirling, the short—term success will be if the app attracts visitors in the coming summer season. but the long—term success will be determined by how it is developed over the next decade. of course, it wouldn't be a trip as a tourist without something for instagram. both: freedom! echoes: freedom! now, then, movie fans, it's award season. and i know, spencer, that one of your favourite films of the year is...

everything everywhere all at 0nce. this is right up your street. yeah. but what do you think it is about it that made it stand out? well, i mean, it isjust great fun. i mean, it's totally bonkers. but also, the best thing about it is how the film was made. i mean, the visual effects do look great but they were, for the most part, made by five guys in their bedroom. i just think every so often, a movie comes along which gives us all hope that we can do our own vfx. so, we spoke to the team behind it to see what tools they used from home to smash through the multiverse. pow! distant: mrs wang... mrs wang... mrs wang, are you with us? i am paying attention. starman from david bowie plays. it does not look good. screams. this film told its story with a very

special visual language that used these effect shots to really communicate a lot. and we even had to rely mostly on 2d effects over 3d effects, simply because we didn't have the computing power or the time or the resources or even the expertise to do anything so fancy. sometimes, a good movie can be made just through, i think, tasteful application of simple choices. i think the coolest thing about the visual effects on this film is that they're all feasible on a budget — for the cost of a subscription to adobe, and a 3d programme like blender's free. any shot that you've seen in this film, there no price point on it that's particularly high, it'sjust about learning how to craft the shot. i think that's the big secret here. we found a way to pare it all down into a very modest and workable pipeline, using off—the—shelf prosumer

technologies, and it sort of is a sign of the times that now, a movie like this can be made in this way and ten years ago, that was not the case. it's all about the bagel. it's making me hungry. don't eat that bagel — and stay away from the hot dogs in the film as well! if you've seen it, you know what i'm talking about. and we'll be looking at another nominee in a few weeks' time. meanwhile, that is it for the shortcut of this week's click. the full—length version is, of course, waiting for you right now on iplayer. thanks for watching. we'll see you soon. bye— bye.

hello. it was a very mild start to the working week. temperatures quite widely got into the low teens, but in suffolk on monday, we had 16 celsius, 61 fahrenheit, which is well above the february average. it was well above average in most places and it will again be well above average during the day on tuesday because we're bathed in the atlantic air. weather fronts towards the north and strong winds, high pressure keeping the winds a little lighter further south and the weather fronts at bay. so, not as windy as we go into tuesday across the northern isles as we had monday, but wetter, and some rain approaches towards the west. elsewhere, misty low cloud shrouding the hills and coasts in fog, and some drizzle in the west. central and eastern areas have the better chance of the sunshine, perhaps the north coast of wales, the moray firth, and that's when we'll see temperatures responding to that sunshine, again 14—15. but then a change as we go through towards wednesday. behind this weather front, we've got a change in wind direction, so that north—westerly will bring a chillier feel for most of us, quite a bit of cloud,

some rain as well. that rain really dragging its heels to clear in the south—east and east anglia, and something a little bit wintry over the hills, but it is february after all. i think what we'll notice is more blue sky — in fact, quite sparkling skies for many, but temperatures will be 3 or 4 degrees lower than they have been, back down to average. now, there could be a few wintry flurries heading their way southwards during wednesday night into thursday. i think the main thing thursday morning is the chilly start. fairly widespread frost returning for many, and it won't be the only frost that we see in the coming few nights either. a ridge of high pressure keeps things largely fine and dry as we go through thursday. as i say, there could be a few showers drifting southwards, little bit of hail, little bit of sleet over the hills. it's chilly airfirst thing in the morning, but then we'll see that sunshine winning through for most, just increased cloud and rain towards the north later ahead of the next weather system. so, temperatures 8—10 degrees, which, as i say, is about average for mid—february. this weather system then works its way in during thursday night into friday. again, the isobars tighten, so some windier weather for a time, which should mean that it won't be

quite as cold to start friday morning, but it will still feel chilly during the day — a bit more cloud coming south on those weakening weather fronts, with a scattering of showers following on behind, so it's not altogether dry. temperatures, as you can see, 8—10 degrees, very similar, about average for the time of year, add on that keen breeze, particularly through the morning, and it will feel chillier. but then that high pressure returns, pushing those weather fronts out of the way. the isobars open up, so it becomes less windy as we move into the weekend, which means that we will have some night—time frost. so, some chilly nights to come over the weekend once again, but some sparkling starts in the morning, potentially a little bit of mist and fog, of course, as well, but as for the forecast, you can see there's a lot of fine and dry weather around, variable amounts of cloud. this is that weather front dragging its heels to clear. that high pressure then stays with us as we move into the start of next week. the difference is that it drifts, we think, a little bit further northwards, which allows the isobars to tighten and come in from the east — an easterly wind, which could make

it feel a bit chilly at times if those winds stay strong, and it could pull in some cloud as well, but itjust means that, for most, there'll be a lot of dry weather into next week as well. for this week, as i say, it's a mild and cloudy start, we'll have that rain midweek, which will allow that colderairto sink in, and then some fine and dry weather takes over into the weekend and next week, but with some chilly nights to come. temperatures about average for the time of year, but some frosty nights on the cards, possibly picking up some fog with the light winds, too.
