they are so cute! good morning and happy st david's day. it will remain very cloudy, a little bit of rain here and there but not a lot, colder into the weekend and especially next week. all of the details later in the programme. it's wednesday the 1st of march. our main story. a major search is still ongoing for a two—month—old baby who police fear may have "come to harm" in freezing conditions near brighton. the child's parents, constance marten and her partner mark gordon, are being held on suspicion of gross negligence manslaughter but are refusing to give any information about their baby, as vincent mcaviney reports. monday night in north brighton. after 53 days on the run, constance marten and mark gordon are spotted on cctv walking down a residential street. while shopping in this convenience store, they were spotted by a member of the public who called 999.

shortly after, they were filmed again. officers arrested the couple without their baby walking towards an allotment site and golf course leading to the south downs. but despite finally having the couple in custody, they have not provided any further information about the condition or whereabouts of the child. police fear it could have been abandoned in freezing conditions. they're now being held on suspicion of gross negligence manslaughter. around 200 officers from sussex and london's metropolitan police have worked around the clock to try to find the baby, whose sex is unknown and who is believed to have never had medical treatment. drones, a helicopter and sniffer dogs were all deployed to assist. in the daylight, officers work their way slowly through the large allotment the couple were thought to be heading towards. every shed and greenhouse was being checked in temperatures close to zero. 35—year—old constance marten comes from a hugely wealthy family

with close ties to the royal family. she grew up in this country estate in dorset and was at drama school in 2016 when she first met 48—year—old mark gordon. gordon, a registered sex offender who was deported to britain from the united states in 2010 after spending 20 years in prison for a rape he committed aged 1a. ever since, they have led an isolated life. then in september, when martin was well into her pregnancy, they began moving around rental flats. police believe the baby was born in the back of a car in earlyjanuary. the couple came onto the police�*s radar onjanuary 5th when the car was found on fire on the side of the m61 near bolton. from there the pair took a taxi to liverpool, then another to harwich, arriving there on the morning of the 6th of january. by lunchtime on the 7th of january, they were in east london where they bought a blue tent from argos and abandoned their pushchair. there were then yet more taxi

journeys, including a final one to the port of newhaven. since then, they've used a large amount of cash to live off grid and evade detection until monday night. injanuary, constance�*s father, napier martin, made this appeal to his daughter. darling constance, even though we remain estranged at the moment, i stand by, as i have always done and as the family has always done, to do whatever is necessary for your safe return to us. whilst detectives hope the baby is alive, perhaps being looked after by someone else, they're becoming increasingly concerned. constance martin's father said on tuesday that whilst he's relieved that she's been found, he is worried about his missing grandchild they hope to finally meet. but after another night of freezing weather, that hope here is fading. vincent mcaviney, bbc news. yetunde yusuf is at the allotments

which are being searched. the which are being searched. search goes on. yetundt hundreds the search goes on. yetunde, hundreds of police officers, we can see some of that they're involved but as this goes on for longer, i guess hopes begin to fade. yes. guess hopes begin to fade. yes, that's right- _ guess hopes begin to fade. yes, that's right. hsh _ guess hopes begin to fade. yes that's right. hsh operation is under way. behind me now, some at 9! miles of open space is being looked at, said the allotment, the golf course, it's just because they were arrested not far from here, it's just because they were arrested not farfrom here, constance it's just because they were arrested not far from here, constance marten and mark gordon, arrested on suspicion of gross negligence manslaughter. police are appealing to the public for any information or any help they can provide, especially in the newhaven to brighton area, because the bright —— couple were believed to have been last seen with the baby of the 8th of january. police are still hoping to this child. at the moment hope is

fading away, they are still hopeful but they do fear that harm could have come to the child. yetunde, thank ou have come to the child. yetunde, thank you very — have come to the child. yetunde, thank you very much. _ at least 32 people are dead and 85 are injured after a passenger and a freight train collided in nothern greece overnight. rescue workers have been searching through the derailed wreckage to find survivors as stephanie prentice reports. it's been described by local authorities as a powerful collision and a terrible scene. while passengers said the crash felt like in an earthquake. translation: we heard a big bang. it was ten nightmareish seconds. we were turning over in the wagon till we fell on our sides and until the commotion stopped. and there was panic, cables everywhere, fire, the fire was immediate. as we were turning over we were being burned. the fire was right and left. as rescue teams work their way

through these dark and smoky carriages, the death toll keeps rising after a high—speed collision in the night between a cargo train and a passenger train. hundreds of passengers have been evacuated by rescue teams, some dragged to safety after crawling through upside down carriages. translation: it was chaos. tumbling over, fires, cables hanging, broken windows, people screaming, people trapped. these people are the lucky ones. fire officials say the first two carriages of the train completely disintegrated in the crash. the next two were derailed entirely. how two trains travelling in opposite directions came to directly collide will be the next issue officials will tackle. for now, theirfocus is on recovery, and as morning breaks in greece, the hope is that the light will bring survivors with it. former health secretary matt hancock

reportedly failed to follow expert advice that anyone entering a care home at the start of the pandemic should be tested for covid, it has been claimed. whatsapp messages leaked to the telegraph newspaper suggest mr hancock was told in april 2020 there should be "testing of all going into care homes". mr hancock has accused the paper of reporting a "distorted account" of the pandemic. let's speak to our chief political correspondent nick eardley. good morning, nick, what more can you tell us about this story? goad you tell us about this story? good morninu. you tell us about this story? good morning- we _ you tell us about this story? good morning. we haven't _ you tell us about this story? good morning. we haven't seen - you tell us about this story? good morning. we haven't seen the - you tell us about this story? (emf. morning. we haven't seen the full messages so we cannot tell you the full context and what all of the content was but they have been published by the delhi telegraph this morning. they got hold of them via the lockdown critical journalists isabel oakeshott, who helped matt hancock write his memoirs about the pandemic. some

messages have been published today which suggests that mr hancock was told in april 2020 by chris whitty, the chief medical officer, that everybody going into a care home should be tested. we don't have all the messages as i say, but the messages that have been published suggest that he changed his mind over the course of the day. and that by the evening of that same day, he was saying that actually cover the policy should be that everyone going to a care home from hospital should be tested for covid. you will though that the decisions about care homes have been hugely controversial, it wasn't until quite a few months later that everybody going into a care home was given a covid test. we have had some pretty strong push from tea matt hancock on this, they have said that they think the accounts published by the daily telegraph is distorted, that it excludes a reference to a meeting

where matt hancock was told that a pledge to test everyone would not be deliverable. they are accusing the daily telegraph and the journalist involved of agenda driven leaks of confidential documents. this will put the question of policy—making at the start of the pandemic particularly around care homes back into the spotlight, and raise more questions about the decisions made by the government.— by the government. thank you very much, by the government. thank you very much. nick. _ by the government. thank you very much, nick, live _ by the government. thank you very much, nick, live in— by the government. thank you very much, nick, live in westminster. . four men arrested in connection with the shooting of an off—duty police officer in county tyrone have been released. two men — one aged 71, the other 47 — are still being questioned about the attack on detective chief inspectorjohn caldwell in omagh a week ago. he remains in a critical but stable condition in hospital. the family of a woman who was brutally killed by her estranged husband are launching an appeal to prevent his early release from prison. joanna simpson was a week away from divorcing robert brown

when he took her life in 2010. he was convicted of manslaughter due to diminished responsibility, and given a 26—year sentence but he could be released in november this year after serving just 13 years. youtube has been accused of collecting the viewing data of children aged under 13 which would be a breach of a uk data privacy code that was designed to protect young people. an official complaint has been lodged with the information commissioner's officer. our technology editor zoe kleinman reports. what are our children watching online and who knows about it? 89% of three to 17—year—olds watch youtube according to the regulator ofcom, despite it being aimed at children aged 13 and above. youtube gathers data about what its users are watching, so that it can show the more videos they might like. it also looks at where they are watching and what they are watching on. children aren't supposed to be part

of this, but lots of them use their parents�* devices and accounts, and that means that their data gets gathered too. let me see your recommendations. campaigner and father of three duncan mccann says he believes youtube is breaching industry standards by doing this, as neither the children nor their parents have consented to it, and he's taken his complaint to the information commissioners office. it has a children's internet code designed to protect children's data privacy. my preferred reform that youtube should make is that actually when you enter youtube they don't collect any unnecessary and process any unnecessary information and that the best way to ensure that they are only collecting the data of adults who are properly consenting would be to then have a process where adults can sign in to the tracking recommendation system, profiling, targeted ads. in a statement, youtube said it had made investments to protect kids and families, including more protective default settings, a dedicated kids app, and supervised experience

which requires parental consent. the information commissioners office told the bbc we'll consider this complaint carefully. many tech firms make a lot of money from compiling data about their users and then using it to sell ads, but children are supposed to be protected from this. action in the us led to youtube paying a £140 billion fine and changing its practices. it is assumed that anyone watching children's content would be potentially under the age of 13 and so it collects far less data on that type of content and also doesn't send personalised ads to people watching that content. it shows that big tech can make big changes when it needs to. zoe kleinman, bbc news. two police dogs are being sent to thailand from the uk to help authorities there crack down on the trafficking of pangolins. this is quite a mission. here they are.

labradors bess and buster will work in airports, ports and along the county's road network to prevent smuggling, which has been banned globally since 2017. pangolins are nocturnal creatures recognised by their full armour of scales and are critically endangered. they are beautiful. bess and buster are in for a — they are beautiful. bess and buster are in for a bit _ they are beautiful. bess and buster are in for a bit of— they are beautiful. bess and buster are in for a bit of a _ they are beautiful. bess and buster are in for a bit of a surprise! - they are beautiful. bess and buster are in for a bit of a surprise! back. are in for a bit of a surprise! back where they look very smart, much more awake than us. happy st david's day if you are in wales. and? day if you are in wales. andy carroll has — day if you are in wales. andy carroll has picked _ day if you are in wales. andy carroll has picked up - day if you are in wales. andy carroll has picked up on - day if you are in wales. andy carroll has picked up on that| day if you are in wales. andy carroll has picked up on that theme! —— ande, carol has picked up on that theme. i don't know how to say happy st davids day in welsh so i will just say bore da! it isa it is a cold start, temperatures just above freezing or below. we will hang onto cloud and rain but there is some rain in the forecast.

another cloudy day today, a brisk north—easterly wind coming in from the north sea, blowing in showers across eastern areas into east anglia, the midlands, towards wales and the bristol area through the course of the day. most of these showers are right. clear skies in northern and western scotland and parts of the south—east and the south coast, so some sunshine. even amongst the cloud we will see one or two holes so a little bit of sunshine. temperatures, eight to 9 degrees, around about average or just below for some of us for this stage in march. today is the start of the meteorological spring. this evening and overnight we hang onto a lot of cloud, frequent showers, under clear skies across parts of scotland and parts of the south, we are likely once again to see some frost. first thing in the morning we will start off with some sunshine in

the south, and also across parts of scotland, you can see the amount of glad we have got but tomorrow should be sunnier than today. the other thing it is not going to be as windy, it will not feel as cold as today, temperatures seven to 10 degrees. but as we head into the weekend and the early part of next week, it is going to turn much colder. it feels chilly already, we have been warned. we it feels chilly already, we have been warned.— it feels chilly already, we have been warned. ~ ., i. ., , ., , been warned. we love your daffodils, do ou been warned. we love your daffodils, do you want — been warned. we love your daffodils, do you want some _ been warned. we love your daffodils, do you want some more? _ been warned. we love your daffodils, do you want some more? yes, - been warned. we love your daffodils, l do you want some more? yes, please! let's aet do you want some more? yes, please! let's get people _ do you want some more? yes, please! let's get people to _ do you want some more? yes, please! let's get people to send _ do you want some more? yes, please! let's get people to send in _ let's get people to send in daffodils wherever they are, especially in wales. if you have got some lovely daffodil pictures and send them in and carol can then plough through her inbox! just watchin: plough through her inbox! just watching carol's face, she's like, oh, thanks, jon! how am i going to sort this out?— sort this out? you look like an emo'i sort this out? you look like an emoji then _ sort this out? you look like an emoji then it, _ sort this out? you look like an emoji then it, carol. _ sort this out? you look like an emoji then it, carol. don't - sort this out? you look like an l emoji then it, carol. don't even start on that. — emoji then it, carol. don't even

start on that, jon! _ time now for another story from the bbc�*s "we were there" collection of first—hand accounts and memories of world war two. today's feature is thanks to breakfast viewer lynsey, who wanted to recommend her nan, olive mitton. olive was just 1a when she landed a job as a messenger girl at bletchley park, home of top secret code breakers. tim muffett went to meet her. you see, that's where all the listeners were, up here, yeah. bletchley park, a place where codes were cracked, secret nazi messages revealed, and the course of world war two altered. yeah. oh, yeah, over there. that's where it used to be. it was also where 94—year—old olive mitton landed her firstjob

during the second world war. there were 1a messengers, and i think i'm the only one that's left. all the others have gone. tell us about the work you were doing here. i had to sort the mail out and then deliver it three times in the morning and three times in the afternoon. come back from my rounds, sort the mail out again into the pigeonholes ready for the next one. did you have any idea as to what was in those envelopes which you were taking around? none at all, none at all. it was just kept secret. they've made a lovely place of it now. olive was 1a when she got the job. she'd onlyjust left school. thanks to codebreakers such as alan turing and captured german enigma machines that enabled encrypted nazi messages to be understood, the envelopes olive sorted and delivered almost certainly contained information that changed history.

being able to decipher nazi communications had a huge impact during world war two, and some of the specific details as to how that was done are still officially secret. but it's clear it wasn't just the codebreakers who played a key role here. so, what bletchley park is rather thanjust a codebreaking centre, it's better described as a sort of information management system. it takes foreign communications in and it outputs intelligence. someone like olive, what she was doing, taking these messages around the site, i mean, how important was that role? well, it's vital because, of course, there are so many different components of the organisation here. it's a very complex web of connections and all these people have to be joined up. so olive's was just as important as anyone else's role here. without the people at every level of the organisation, none of the system works.

just like olive did, megan goes to school nearby and has been helping us illustrate olive's work here. megan, what's it like to meet someone who has actually worked here for real? it's really nice. i think it's amazing that someone who's14 was doing a job that maybe most 14—year—olds nowadays wouldn't have done. bletchley park was also where olive met the love of her life, thomas. i used to say, "i'd like to go out with him." and then i married him. we used to just sit on the bank. it brings back lots of memories. the work that went on at bletchley park remained secret for many years after world war two. now it's open to visitors. interactive displays tell its story. but those who worked here did so in the shadows. she doesn't like to talk a lot about what she did during the war

because she doesn't see it as anything particularly special or noteworthy. but now that it's come out that the work that was happening at bletchley park, it was essential to the war effort and nan was a part of making bletchley park run smoothly. she might not have been a code—breaker, but she was assisting them so that they could do their work efficiently. it's a place that for many years did not officially exist, yet helped the allies win the war and gave oliver a job which would change her life. tim muffett, bbc news, bletchley park. our thanks to olive for sharing her story and we'd love to hear more like that. what a story, what a lady. if you served in the second world war or you know someone who did, you can get in touch via the bbc website.

imagine that, 1a years old and going to work at bletchley park, incredible. the sight loss charity guide dogs says it's had a record number of people volunteering to raise puppies after breakfast highlighted a national shortage of dogs. yes it's all thanks to our correspondent sean dilley, who has been without a guide dog since his previous companion sammy retired six months ago. he's now facing a two year wait but it's hoped that more volunteers looking after training dogs can reduce that wait, as sean reports. i couldn't imagine my life without rio. she's so important. she's my best friend, my constant companion, my means of independence, of getting about wherever i want to go, whenever i want to go, and living the life i want to lead. this is the freedom guide dogs give their blind and visually impaired partners. rio is ella caulfield's first guide. if they didn't have each other, ella says she wouldn't be able

to study maths at oxford. she gives me that independence that i do need, and i crave, that i need to live the life i want to lead. she's good for a cuddle at the end of an evening if i've had a bad day. and she's an excellent guide, she's very rarely led me astray. ella started to lose her sight at four years old. when she was 15, she received some bad news. i think because it happened gradually, it wasn't like an immediate shock of, "you're not going to see again." i was told i had a retina detachment and i definitely broke down then. i was with my dad. i remember him hugging me and the nurses kind of bringing me a cup of water, just kind of comforting me. and then i got booked in for surgery the next day. doctors operated to try to save any sight they could, but those attempts failed. nothing came of it. so i've been left with just minimal light reception in my right eye. but it's not useful.

i can only see light if i look directly into the sun or into a light bulb. for ella, a new reality. she learnt new life skills and how to read braille. her application for a guide dog was accepted in may 2017. then around a year later... it was actually my mum picked up the call so i hadn't got home from school yet. my mum picked up the call. it was someone from guide dogs saying "we've got a match for ella." i think ijust got very giggly and very kind of, yeah, very excited. like, yes, this is happening. never, says ella, would she ever want to be without a dog again. just feeling so much more confident and independent and happy that i had this friend with me who was going to be there permanently with me. rio provides such a kind of welfare support to me. ella and rio's is one of 3,695 partnerships currently working in the uk, down from around 5,000 before the pandemic when breeding was paused for five months. the charity lost a third of their volunteers. come on, good. good boy!

it's been six months since my guide dog sammy retired. sammy is more important to me and you always will be, sammy, you'll always be my boy. sharing my story is by far the hardest thing i've ever done in my career. the impact, though, has been huge. you are actually quite moved today. the bonds you two have. the niblock family were one of many watching that day. it was heartbreaking to watch it, really. itjust made us think, why not sign up when we've got the time, the space and everything just to help make a difference. they're among more than 11,500 people who've applied to volunteer since sammy's last walk. we applied, they came to see us and we're getting a puppy at the beginning of april. archie! touch! guide dogs say applications spiked then and again when we featured lisa allison and her guide dog puppies. i would like to say to bbc breakfast viewers, thank you so much to everyone who's already applied to volunteer at guide dogs. since the coverage, we've seen a peak in applications. so injanuary alone,

we received almost 3,000 volunteer applications. 2,500 of those were to raise puppies, compared with 2,000 for the whole of 2019, the last pre—pandemic year. the charity says what they need now is fosterers to look after guide dogs in training, people who can drop them off and pick them up from training offices. what this role particularly is is a six month commitment to supporting a puppy to go to school and look after that puppy in evenings and weekends. jenny is hannah cooper's fifth foster dog. good girl, play time! she's six and a half weeks into her training. when she's not learning, she's at home having fun. it means that they are in a really relaxed, comfortable home situation in the evenings and on the weekends. and they get used to, you know, in this case, living in a flat. hannah's job in digital content creation means she gets to work from home a lot.

fostering is a commitment. it takes me probably half an hour to drop her off in the morning and to pick her up. so it's about an hour a day that i spend commuting to and from the training centre, which actually isn't that much. and hannah doesn't plan to stop any time soon. when i hearfrom guide dog owners who have had a guide dog and how much it changes their life, like, that is incredible. and it makes me feel really proud to have been a tiny, tiny part of that. far from playing a tiny part, guide dogs say hannah's role is vital if they're to cut waiting times. hannah knows their time together is not forever. but fosterers like her are needed to help dogs likejenny become guides for people like me. that was sean dilley reporting. he is waiting for a dog. he will be here a little bit later, reunited

with sammy, his old dogs, here on the couch and we will be talking to the couch and we will be talking to the charity about what they are looking for. you can see much more on that story in the documentary: britain's guide dog shortage. that's available now on bbc iplayer. thousands of pubs could face closure due to high energy prices and inflation driving up the cost of food, that's the warning from industry insiders. they're calling for the chancellor to help them in the spring budget. nina is at a pub near stockport for us this morning. a bit early for the pub, inida, come on! but it looks gorgeous. absolutely not for me! never too early for the pub. in fact, jon and sally, what is cosier in the midst of winter than a quintessential british pub? absolutely nothing. beautiful to be here this morning. there is this warning from the british pub and landlords association that 2000 pubs could

on budget day two weeks today. the rmt�*s long been in dispute over pensions, job losses and contractual agreements. tfl's urged both unions to call off their action. e—scooter riders involved in crashes are more likely to suffer serious injuries than cyclists, according to new research. the team at queen mary's university of london found there was a higher rate of serious head injuries among e—scooter riders than cyclists and the average age of those admitted to hospital was 35 compared to 50 for bike riders. a campaign to restore london's historical drinking fountains to be used by the public is hoping it will help reduce the city's plastic pollution. there used to be about a thousand fountains in the capital, but according to the charity — heritage of london trust — there are now only about 100 after many were switched off in the 70s and 80s. there is no question, people are attracted to these things. you restore them beautifully, obviously we put brand—new piping in it, these are not the victoria, lead pipes, these are brand—new piping.

we've got some lovely gilding on the front so you make it an attractive part of the streetscape. people understand the history of it and they understand that you have done it, you know, with all the modern interior, but it is this beautiful thing that people enjoy engaging with. let's take a look at the tubes now. the district line has no service between earl's court and kensington olympia. minor delays on the hammersmith and city westbound and the overground has some part closures so do check before you travel. now onto the weather with kate kinsella. good morning. it's a largely cloudy start this morning. high pressure is still in charge, so it's quite a quiet day but we have still got rather overcast skies. one or two showers added into the mix as well today, but they should be fairly light, blowing through on a north—easterly breeze. now we could just see one or two brighter spells, especially further south through this morning. you might even see a glimpse of sunshine, but that cloud really takes over and temperatures today between 7—9. overnight tonight, some slightly drier airjust starts to edge in from the continent. that helps to shift the cloud out

of the way, break it up so we'll get some clear spells and under, of course, the clear skies, it is going to get a bit chilly. a minimum down to zero, so we could just see a bit of frost first thing tomorrow morning. now high pressure is still in charge. we've got a bit more sunshine around for thursday and temperatures very similar. but as we head further through this week, the temperature is slowly slipping away and it is going to get much colder by the end of the weekend and into next week. that's it for now, but head to our website to find out more about the smart suit that's changing children's lives and plenty more. i'll be back in half an hour. bye bye. hello, this is breakfast withjon kay and sally nugent. coming up on breakfast this morning. the medieval chair undergoing conservation work so it can be used in the coronation of king charles. we'll see the painstaking work involved. why a shoal of haddock

from grimsby will be taking over southampton tonight. inflatable. and nick knowles will be here to tell us about his latest big adventure. he is swapping diy to do this at the grand canyon. more than 700 sex offenders have slipped off the radar of police in three years, according to figures uncovered by the bbc. according to figures currently, if a registered sex offender wants to change their name, they should inform the police. but critics say regulations are too easy to bypass. the home office carried out two related reviews of the issue last year, but has not released the findings. phil mackie reports. these are just a few of the men who have been jailed for sex offences either after they changed their names or who have changed their name since. we know of dozens of others and it's feared there could be many more out there. freedom of information requests have revealed the police no longer know

the whereabouts of at least 729 sex offenders. campaigners believe most have changed their names to make it easier to disappear. it should be that that offence follows you for the rest of your life so that when you want to start a newjob, get into a new relationship, those people around you are aware of who you are and what you've done. della wright was abused as a child. decades later, when she reported the case to the police, she learned that the man responsible had gone on to change his identity and offend again. if it's as simple as a sex offendersaying, "no, i've never been known by any other name" and nobody checks that, it's far too simplistic. and so it's just open to abuse. and that abuse is still going on? absolutely, yeah. she's leading a campaign for what they are calling della's law which would deny sex offenders the right to change their names. we're talking about driving licence, passports.

you know, people are coming out, being prolific offenders, getting a new passport and then going abroad to abuse children abroad. you know, we've not got a grasp on our sex offenders in this country. the mp sarah champion is hosting a debate about the issue in westminster tomorrow. the scale of sex offenders changing their names and disappearing in the system is really chilling, so why is it the home secretary isn't acting to close this gaping loophole? in a statement, the home office said that sex offenders must notify police of their personal details every year and this includes any name changes. failure to comply, including providing false information, is a criminal offence punishable by up to five years imprisonment. the national police chiefs' council has said that it believes that sex offenders are managed robustly here in the uk. it said that anyone has got the right to change their names but there are extra legal

obligations placed on sex offenders and it believes that the uk has world beating tools manage them effectively. the lucy faithful foundation has worked successfully with sex offenders for decades, helping to stop them committing more crimes. if changing a name assists in doing that, then that, for me, _ becomes a priority but of course they have to do that _ in a way that is consistent with their registration - requirements, that doesn't allow. them to seek opportunities and take opportunities to reoffend. the majority of sex offenders who change their names do tell the authorities, but a worryingly high number are using it as a loophole to evade scrutiny. phil mackie, bbc news. you're watching breakfast from bbc news. john is here. good morning. the fa cup continues. where waiting for

your friends to arrive later. all will be revealed. it got fans, grimsby fans of the moment riding high after a brilliant cup run, knots making the long trip down to southampton enjoying themselves. that is a long trip. but that's the fun of it. mid week, i'm sure people will take time off work to go and watch their team play. we have got results from last night as well. blackburn, who came through last night, a brilliant win for them knocking out leicester city so lots of mid week drama, loads of fun. it is building. that's what the fa cup is building. that's what the fa cup is all about. morning. gotta love the cup. blackburn certainly are, writing a new chapter according to their manager. the biggest upset so far of the fifth round, beating premier league leicester, and what a goal for their first, through tyrhys dolan, great strike. then they went two up when sammie szmodics and whilst leicester pulled one back, rovers held on, into the quarter finals for the first time in a long time. party time.

we know that leicester is an excellent side. they've done really well. they've played some good football. excellent manager, as well. but i think we took the game to the place. we offered a party. and we were an important part of that party, the way we played, the way we created chances. and, of course, the workload, as well. big effort for the lads. great to hear ourfans being happy. so it's been a great night for rovers. that's what it's all about. a big night for the fans. manchester city fans made the not so short trip to bristol last night, they were smiling on the way home too, as was phil foden, the england star with two last night, it's handy when you've got him on the team bus. a 3—0 win for them over bristol city. marco silva for manager of the year? that's what some are saying after his fulham side beat leeds 2—0 with a couple of cracking goals including this from joao palhinha.

there now a couple of wins from a first fa cup final since 1975. it's great for us to go through to play quarterfinal again since 2009—10. the club were not playing that stage of the competition. really important for us. we know that our story as a club in fa cup is not great. we are here to try to change it. brighton have never won a major trophy but they're also just two wins away from the final now after a 1—0 win at stoke evan ferguson scored the only goal of the game. we were talking about fans making the long trip at the moment and that's certainly what grimsby fans are doing this morning. harry the haddock for you. don't say i don't bring new things. this is also harry the haddock and i think there will be up few more inflatables making the long trip down. harry has long

been associated with the club. fans have been flinging him around in their seats for a long time and since they have had this brilliant cup run they've been on, he's been making something of a revival. he is back, enjoying himself, as are the grimsby fans, and who else has been up grimsby fans, and who else has been up there to have a little look around? mike has been finding out all about it. the town more famous for its catch of the day is finally landing the big ones again in the fa cup, beating teams from the divisions above on their way to the fifth round at southampton. and it's breathing life back into harry haddock, the inflatable fish mascot who first shot to fame in the giant—killing cup run of 1989, when fourth division grimsby caused a major shock at top flight middlesbrough and then took the lead at cup holders wimbledon. would it be a day for old harry the haddock?

should have seen the one that got away. in fact, there were quite a few haddocks on show at wimbledon. alexander! behind that goal, a shoal of inflatable haddocks. a feast ofjubilation. in harry haddock, it wasjust phenomenal and it went sort of national and i think a bit worldwide as well. - it was great sight, unbelievable. i think for me it wasn't a problem because i was a local lad anyway. so i was born here and i knew the fishing industry and all things like that. but to the other lads they was amazed with it. so just to bring that memory back, it was great for local people, for the players, everyone at the club. # sing when we're fishing. # we only sing when we're fishing... # sing when we're fishing. decades on, thanks to another cup run, the fans are living the bream again and the haddocks are connecting the past with the present. scorer in the last round, harry clifton, also born and bred here, is feeling the wave of support. it's a cool way ofjust

putting our stamp on it, on the cup, and just having a way where we can be recognised and itjust gives you that lift and that determination and just that to just leave everything on the pitch and give it absolutely everything and the fans are with you so it's like literally like a 12th man. # we only sing when we're fishing. the formerjournalist who came up with the original harry haddock back in 1989 never imagined the idea would blow up to such an extent and be back with a new design, as the old one is a bit battered. it came out ofjust a throwaway line in a terrace report, you know, during an fa cup run. and i can't believe 3a years later that here we are still talking about harry haddock. traditionally the trawlers from grimsby, fished for haddock. the haul was cod. so it's very much synonymous with the town, is haddock and grimsby. now, at first, tonight's opponent, southampton, said they would not allow the inflatable haddocks into their ground for the match

until the hot air created on social media led to a change of heart, and judging by sales, a whole shoal of several thousand will now be swimming south. everything's taken a back seat to harry. real excitement particularly for our young fans who haven't seen us have this kind of success before. # we only sing when we're fishing. obviously a major, major part of the local history, fish. so obviously we're chant about it in the stands. so let everyone know about it. come on, the mariners! you know, in the more traditional fish and chip shops of grimsby and cleethorpes, cod is off the menu for good reason. it's just all about the haddock. and while this fa cup run for the club has been a glorious glimpse into the past, harry here in different form, of course, there's also a chance to now see the future when the fish in some ways may have had its chips. the club you see is on the up. it has new owners who, just like the area,

are embracing new horizons. # take me back to rustic town. we declared a new kit sponsor at the start of this season, and they're leading a renewables revolution in the town. we're seeing the ambition of the football club inspiring others, and that ambition reflected in the rest of the town. if you thought you know about grimsby, look again. # i want to ride your fairground. # take air along the quay. # grimsby. eltonjohn knew it back in the 1970s, singing this tribute to grimsby, a town indeed named after a danish fisherman called grim, who arrived at the time of the vikings. ideal material for comedian and huge grimsby fan lloyd griffith, who's currently away on his uk tour. a lot of people do go, "oh, you put the grim in grimsby" and it's just,

"oh, we've heard it all before." and you just wonder what that if the bloke who settled was called steve or barry, i mean barryby or steveby, but he was called grim and we just have to deal with it. but yeah, it's like a bit of a joke that people go, "oh, it's grim in grimsby" but you know what, it's not. although looking out at the moment it's quite grey. after so many years when this club was all at sea in non—league backwaters, the fans of these supposed minnows no longerfeel like such a fish out of water. mike bushell, bbc news in cleethorpes in grimsby. i think harry is still trying to blow us up to be honest and i know the feeling. it took me about half an hour. i had to do both of these this morning. the producer helped me

out. was that eltonjohn singing about grimsby? bernie tobin wrote a song about grimsby. that is niche. that is pub quiz stuff. brilliant. can we have them all morning? absolutely, i think they're ours to keep. i think a lot of the grimsby fans will be on their way to be honest, 4000 of them is, so can only imagine how many more harrys are making their way. safe travels everybody going there today. this might be quite appropriate for our next link. we are going to majorca. people on holiday in majorca might need to swap their swimsuits for scarves and jumpers after a blizzard hit the island. storm juliette also hit mainland spain and the other balearic islands, causing gale—force winds, power cuts, and blocked roads. on the mainland, temperatures dropped as low as minus 16 degrees overnight. so if you are jealously waiting your

neighbours off to majorca you are having the last laugh because it's not that cold here. it's getting colder, isn't it, carol? this not that cold here. it's getting colder, isn't it, carol?- colder, isn't it, carol? this is majorca. _ colder, isn't it, carol? this is majorca. as _ colder, isn't it, carol? this is majorca, as well _ colder, isn't it, carol? this is majorca, as well so - colder, isn't it, carol? this is majorca, as well so don't - colder, isn't it, carol? this is i majorca, as well so don't worry. conditions there are getting better today. still some rough seas but if you have a look at these pictures, storm juliet had a real impact on majorca in particular yesterday, significant snowfall, about 800 metres elevation, 1—2 metres of snow but we even had some snow down to sea level which is pretty rare. the other thing is the strong winds yesterday, 76 mph, whipping up some rough seas. still rough seas around majorca and menorca today. you'll also find we had a lot of rain. 24 hours worth of rain, totalling 180 millimetres in some parts. so this is storm juliet. very slowly it moves eastwards across the mediterranean in the next few days

bringing heavy rain and thunderstorms, strong wind, across sardinia, corsica, italy and the balkans with some snow in the alps. we could well see some snow next week in our forecast but for the next few days what we have is a lot of cloud, little in the way of rain although there are some in the forecast, high pressure effectively is blocking the low pressure in the mediterranean and it's going to be with us as we go through this week with us as we go through this week with various friends trying to penetrate it, but they are going to be fairly weak affairs so once again today we are looking at a lot of cloud. 18 north—easterly breeze coming in from the north sea and that's bringing some showers to eastern areas through the midlands, wales, down towards the south—west. we will see some sunshine across parts of the south coast and the south—east where a frosty start as he rode across parts of the highlands, but it's also a frosty start. maximum temperature today, 7-9. start. maximum temperature today, 7—9. close to orjust below where we would expect them to be on the 1st

of march which of course is the start of the meteorological spring. so tonight we hang onto all this cloud. still some frequent showers across southern scotland and northern ireland, a few showers getting into northern england and under clear skies in the south, and also the far north, likely to see some frost. as we head through tomorrow, high pressure anchored across our shores. these isobars are well spaced meaning it's not going to be as windy tomorrow so that doesn't mean it won't feel as cold as it's going to today. once again we will have areas of cloud but more sunshine tomorrow than today. particularly across southern parts of england and wales and also across northern scotland but we should see more holes punched in the cloud, so more holes punched in the cloud, so more of us having a brighter day. temperatures 7—10. and then, as we head towards the weekend, high pressure is still very much with us. a weak weather front coming in producing some light on patchy rain as we head into saturday across the north of the country but behind that we start to pull in much colder air.

you can see the blues in the chart representing the cold air but then they get darker blue. we pull in a northerly flow so the air coming down from the arctic, hence it is going to turn much colder. so, as we head towards the weekend, we've got the weather front coming in across the weather front coming in across the north of scotland bringing some showers but for many of us it will be dry with variable amounts of cloud and sunshine. it turns more unsettled as we head to the middle of next week. it will turn colder and some of us will see some snow, a lot of it in the hills, but we could see some at low levels and we might see some at low levels and we might see it as far south as the south of england, and it's something we are keeping a very close eye on. it is still a long way off. at the moment, the trend looks like it will turn a little bit milder by the end of the week. a lot to wait for. it’s week. a lot to wait for. it's caettin week. a lot to wait for. it's getting like _ week. a lot to wait for. it's getting like majorca. thank you. we need to keep it in

check. let's be optimistic about it, shall we? now turning our attention to the coronation coming ahead in the few months�* time. it's been the centrepiece of coronations for more than 700 years — the medieval chair that kings and queens sit on as the crown is placed upon their head. 700 years old! for the last four months, conservationists have been working to restore the chair ahead of the coronation of king charles iii at westminster abbey in may, but there's still work to be done to ensure its fit for royalty. our royal correspondent nicholas witchell reports. just over nine weeks to go now to the coronation and westminster abbey is still busy with tourists. the physical preparation of the abbey has barely begun. but in one of the abbey's side chapels, one of the key components of the coronation is being made ready. this is the coronation chair. the 700—year—old chair made

in the year 1300 and used at every coronation since then. the late queen elizabeth was seated on the coronation chair for her crowning in 1953, just as her namesake, elizabeth i had been for centuries before, and henry viii and others before that. the chair bears the marks of the centuries. graffiti from the 1800s, when visitors were able to carve their initials into it. but conservators say, all in all, it's in remarkably sound condition. and there are several initials and some names. some have been identified to go on to become earls or barons. it's made from oak and it's gilded. it would have originally had painted and gilded glasswork as well, so it would have looked like a metallic object. it's decorated with punch work, which is small, tiny dots that we use to create images. so there's birds, there's figures of saints and kings, and there's lots of foliage as well.

and because so little survives of english art from that time, it really is an exquisite example of the quality of craftsmanship that doesn't survive any more. by coronation day, the chair�*s preparation will be complete. there will be no attempt to restore its original gold leaf gilding. the significance of this chair is rooted in its age and the centuries of history that it embodies. there's one vital part of this historic chair which has still to be added. it's the stone of scone, the ancient slab of sandstone on which scottish kings used to be crowned, which on coronation day will restjust here, underneath the seat on which king charles will be crowned. the stone of scone, or stone of destiny as it's sometimes known in scotland, will be brought from edinburgh at some point over coming weeks to be placed in the chair which was originally designed to hold it. at that point, the

chair will be ready. on coronation day itself, a stage, a platform will have been built in that area in front of the high altar and the coronation chair will be there. the centre of attention facing the high altar for the most solemn parts of the service — the crowning and the anointing. it will be the coronation of a british king. a religious service tailored in some respects to modern times, but honouring the centuries of tradition represented by the chair, which will be its centrepiece. nicholas witchell, bbc news, westminster abbey. i feel our sofa is a ifeel our sofa is a little understated after that. i definitely don't want to cheer like that. it would not be comfortable. crests and panelling? no, ilike would not be comfortable. crests and panelling? no, i like it simple. i don't want the responsibility of that big chair. time now to get the news, travel and weather where you are.

a very good morning from bbc london. i'm alice salfield. police are continuing their search for a two—month—old baby after its parents from south—east london were arrested on suspiction of gross negligence manslaughter. a vast outdoor area in brighton was searched through the night led by the met who say they're using helicopters, dogs and drones. police say the baby could still be alive but fear it may have "come to harm" in freezing conditions. the parents, constance marten and mark gordon, who is a registered sex offender, are refusing to give any information about their baby. the rmt union says its members on the tube willjoin drivers from the aslef union in striking on budget day two weeks today. the rmt�*s long been in dispute over pensions, job losses and contractual agreements. tfl's urged both unions to call off their action. e—scooter riders involved in crashes are more likely to suffer serious

injuries than cyclists, according to new research. the team at queen mary's university of london found serious injuries in e—scooter users had a correlation with low helmet usage, age and riding while intoxicated. e—scooter riders also sustained more severe head injuries. a campaign to restore london's historical drinking fountains is hoping it will help reduce the city's plastic pollution. there used to be about a thousand fountains in the capital, but according to the heritage of london trust, there are now only about 100 after many were switched off in the �*70s and �*80s. now they want to restore them to be used by the public. there is no question, people are attracted to these things. you restore them beautifully, obviously we put brand—new piping in it, these are not the victorian lead pipes, these are brand—new piping. we've got some lovely gilding on the front so you make it an attractive part of the streetscape. people understand the history of it and they understand that you have done it, you know, with all the modern interior, but it is this beautiful thing that people

enjoy engaging with. let's take a look at the tubes now. the district line has no service between earl's court and kensington olympia. there are also minor delays on the hammersmith and city and the jubilee line. now onto the weather with kate kinsella. good morning. it's a largely cloudy start this morning. high pressure is still in charge, so it's quite a quiet day but we have still got rather overcast skies. one or two showers added into the mix as well today, but they should be fairly light, blowing through on a north—easterly breeze. now we could just see one or two brighter spells, especially further south through this morning. you might even see a glimpse of sunshine, but that cloud really takes over and temperatures today between 7—9. overnight tonight, some slightly drier airjust starts to edge in from the continent. that helps to shift the cloud out of the way, break it up so we'll get some clear spells and under, of course, the clear skies, it is going to get a bit chilly. a minimum down to zero, so we could just see a bit of frost first thing tomorrow morning. now high pressure is still in charge. we've got a bit more

sunshine around for thursday and temperatures very similar. but as we head further through this week, the temperature is slowly slipping away and it is going to get much colder by the end of the weekend and into next week. that's it for now but head to our website to find out more about the smart suit that's changing children's lives. bye— bye. good morning, welcome to breakfast withjon kay and sally nugent. our headlines today. the search continues for a missing two—month—old baby.

monday night in north brighton. after 53 days on the run, constance marten and mark gordon are spotted on cctv walking down a residential street. while shopping in this convenience store, they were spotted by a member of the public who called 999. shortly after, they were filmed again. officers arrested the couple without their baby walking towards an allotment site and golf course leading to the south downs. but despite finally having the couple in custody, they have not provided any further information about the condition or whereabouts of the child. police fear it could have been abandoned in freezing conditions. they're now being held on suspicion of gross negligence manslaughter. around 200 officers from sussex and london's metropolitan police have worked around the clock to try to find the baby, whose sex is unknown and who is believed to have never had medical treatment. drones, a helicopter and sniffer

dogs were all deployed to assist. in the daylight, officers work their way slowly through the large allotment the couple were thought to be heading towards. every shed and greenhouse was being checked in temperatures close to zero. 35—year—old constance marten comes from a hugely wealthy family with close ties to the royal family. she grew up in this country estate in dorset and was at drama school in 2016 when she first met 48—year—old mark gordon. gordon, a registered sex offender who was deported to britain from the united states in 2010 after spending 20 years in prison for a rape he committed aged 14. ever since, they have led an isolated life. then in september, when martin was well into her pregnancy, they began moving around rental flats. police believe the baby was born in the back of a car in earlyjanuary. the couple came onto the police's radar onjanuary 5th when the car

was found on fire on the side of the m61 near bolton. from there the pair took a taxi to liverpool, then another to harwich, arriving there on the morning of the 6th of january. by lunchtime on the 7th of january, they were in east london where they bought a blue tent from argos and abandoned their pushchair. there were then yet more taxi journeys, including a final one to the port of newhaven. since then, they've used a large amount of cash to live off grid and evade detection until monday night. injanuary, constance's father, napier martin, made this appeal to his daughter. darling constance, even though we remain estranged at the moment, i stand by, as i have always done and as the family has always done, to do whatever is necessary for your safe return to us. whilst detectives hope the baby is alive, perhaps being looked after by someone else, they're becoming increasingly concerned. constance martin's father said

on tuesday that whilst he's relieved that she's been found, he is worried about his missing grandchild they hope to finally meet. but after another night of freezing weather, that hope here is fading. vincent mcaviney, bbc news. yetunde yousuf is at the allotments which are being searched. yetunde, which are being searched. hundreds of police office are yetunde, hundreds of police officers are involved in the search, it has been going on through the night and the area they are searching is vast, isn't it? , . �* , the area they are searching is vast, isn't it? , ., �* , , ., isn't it? yes, that's right. it is a ma'or isn't it? yes, that's right. it is a major search — isn't it? yes, that's right. it is a major search operation. - isn't it? yes, that's right. it is a major search operation. some l isn't it? yes, that's right. it is a l major search operation. some 91 square miles being searched behind me. i have seen police fans coming to and from the area, search and rescue specialist teams, they are really focusing on the golf course area and the allotment as well where we have seen officers combing through undergrowth, looking into

water buts and sheds. some 200 officers have been involved, looking at this area because yards away at the pair, constance marten and mark gordon, were arrested on suspicion initially of child neglect and yesterday they were further arrested on suspicion of negligence, gross negligence manslaughter. the police are asking anyone with any information to come forward because the last sighting of the pair with the last sighting of the pair with the baby was believed to have been in new haven on the 8th ofjanuary, so they asking people new haven, brighton, to get back to them with any information to look at outbuildings, gardens as well. police are really concerned about the welfare of the child because it might look sunny here but it's really called and they are concerned that the baby may have come to some harm —— it is really cold. they are hopeful, but hopes are fading. we will keep you updated through the programme if we hear any news. thank

you, yetunde. at least 32 people are dead and 85 injured after a passenger and a freight train collided in nothern greece overnight. rescue workers have been searching through the derailed wreckage to find survivors. we can speak now to journalist alexia kalaitzi. they have been at the scene, can you just bring us up to date with what you know about what on earth may have caused this terrible accident? nobody can know the reasons why this tragic accident happened. i spent the night in thessaloniki, where the survivors arrived, the people who survived this tragic accident. we spoke to many young people who were in utter shock. one young man, around 20 years old, told us he thought he was going to die because

he heard a bang and then he felt the whole train car going sideways. the whole train car going sideways. the whole thing collapsed and he had to escape through a hole. and the people described that they had to use their luggage in order to break the windows and escape the car. and what they have seen after they escaped is that the first two carriages were on fire, and there was smoke everywhere, people were panicked and screaming. most of the people i talked to were very young people, mostly students, and they were returning from their holidays, because here in greece, monday was a national holiday so many people went to their home towns or for a leisure trip. and it ended up in this tragic way. the worst part was the parents who were awaiting their on the train

telegraph? good morning, sally. the daily telegraph have _ telegraph? good morning, sally. the daily telegraph have got _ telegraph? good morning, sally. the daily telegraph have got hold - telegraph? good morning, sally. the daily telegraph have got hold of i daily telegraph have got hold of tens of thousands of mr hancock's whatsapp messages via a journalist called isabel oakeshott, she was locked down critical, but she was also hired to help matt hancock write his book. that's how she got hold of them. some of the extracts have been published this morning. i should say, we have not seen the whole exchanges, so we don't know the context of the full content of what has been said. the report published by the telegraph suggests that mr hancock was told by the chief medical officer back in april 2020 that everyone going into care homes should be tested. there are a few messages from that day which are published, and at the end of the day, is decided that the advice should actually say that everybody going into care homes from hospitals, not from everywhere, from hospitals, not from everywhere, from hospitals, should be tested. matt hancock's team have issued a really

strong rebuttal of this, they are extremely angry about the way these messages have been presented, they say it is partial, its agenda driven from the journalist involved. they are arguing there is actually a meeting that day in between these messages being sent where it was made clear that it was not deliverable to test everyone going into a care home, there were not enough tests. my understanding is that mr hancock is furious about this and he we will hear from him that mr hancock is furious about this and he we will hearfrom him on the record sued. why does this matter? we have covered the controversy many times over the decisions made about care homes at the start of the pandemic, this adds more questions about what decisions the government made, what advice it was get in, and whether the advice was get in, and whether the advice was acted upon, and i suspect this row has more to go.—

was acted upon, and i suspect this row has more to go. thank you very much. four men arrested in connection with the shooting of an off—duty police officer in county tyrone have been released. two men — one aged 71, the other 47 — are still being questioned about the attack on detective chief inspectorjohn caldwell in omagh a week ago. he remains in a critical but stable condition in hospital. youtube has been accused of collecting the viewing data of children aged under 13, which would be a breach of a uk data privacy code that was designed to protect young people. an official complaint has been lodged with the information commissioner's officer, claiming the video platform is gathering data from five million uk children, some as young as three years old. youtube said it had invested in protecting families. it's the 1st of march, its st david's day. the prince and princess of wales were visiting parts of south wales yesterday, ahead of st david's day where the couple took part in a spin class which ended up being rather competitive.

across england and wales, there is a lot of cloud. down the east of england we are looking at showers coming in on a brisk wind from the north sea, blowing south and west into wales, the midlands and the south—west. we should see some brighter skies and sunshine across parts of the south—east and the south coast. these are the temperatures today, seven to 9 degrees, close to orjust below average for the 1st of march. and thatis average for the 1st of march. and that is the meteorological first day of spring. this evening and overnight, a lot of cloud, showers, frequent ones across southern scotland and northern ireland, northern england, clear skies across the west of scotland. also southern counties of england and south wales so we are prone to a touch of frost here. we will also see the sunshine tomorrow morning here. there will be cloud round tomorrow but more sunshine then we have seen in the last few days, the wind will not be as strong so it will not feel as

cold as today. temperatures seven to nine degrees. but it's going to turn much colder this weekend and into the early part of next week. we will be ready, thank you. having an eating disorder can be isolating and lonely and many people wish they had more support. that was certainly the experience of our next guest molly smith, who was diagnosed with anorexia at 14 years old. to help others living with disordered eating, she's created a podcast with bbc radio five live called �*the weigh up: eating disorder diaries'. one of the episodes features molly's family discussing how her anorexia affected them. let's have a listen. i felt it was our responsibility to keep you alive and meal times were a battle, weren't they? so you go from an enjoyable sitting around the family table eating as a group, to suddenly, it was a battlefield, wasn't it? it was no longer pleasurable to sit and have a meal, it wasn't pleasurable to shop or cook or anything. there was a long time that the whole week revolved around one day

and i believe that was a thursday, when you had your appointment at camhs. camhs, for the listeners, is child and adolescent i mental health services. so it's the team i was referred to to get treatment. _ that was the day that we would go to camhs and you would be weighed. if i'd gained weight, i would just be distraught the whole week. until i could get weighed again. and, but, you know,| you guys were happy, i was gaining weight, i was getting better. | and then the opposite would happen and i would be happy— because i'd lost weight. but then there would be more | arguments because you'd have to get me to eat more food or have extra things on my meal— plan and it was kind i of like a losing situation. mollyjoins us now with her mum jo and kelly fleming from the eating disorder charity beat. good morning, all of you. molly, congratulations. what an incredible achievement. we know that you have worked so hard on this and spoken at

who are watching this morning, mums and dads who might be concerned about this, social media is such a big influence, somewhere safe to go? completely, especially with eating disorders, they are so competitive and they really run off this idea of competing and comparing. so a brilliant thing we have done, we have worked with the incredible charity beat, kerry is hear from them today, and they have helped us screen all of our content to make sure what we are including it is not triggering in any way. for anyone listening who is a vulnerable place with their eating disorder, it is safe to listen to and no content which is upsetting.— safe to listen to and no content which is upsetting. that's really important- _ which is upsetting. that's really important. mum, _ which is upsetting. that's really important. mum, jo, _ which is upsetting. that's really important. mum, jo, when i which is upsetting. that's really. important. mum, jo, when molly which is upsetting. that's really i important. mum, jo, when molly said to you, i have won this competition, and we are going to make a podcast, and we are going to make a podcast, and it's notjust about my experience but it is going to be about all of our experiences as a family, what did you think? it's a big dealfor you as family, what did you think? it's a big deal for you as well. family, what did you think? it's a big dealfor you as well. it family, what did you think? it's a big deal for you as well.- big deal for you as well. it was, and it's like _

travel and weather where you are. a very good morning from bbc london. i'm alice salfield. police are continuing their search for a two—month—old baby after its parents from south—east london were arrested on monday. constance marten and mark gordon are being questioned on suspicion of gross negligence manslaughter but are refusing to give any information about their baby. a vast outdoor area in brighton was searched through the night by the met and sussex police who are using helicopters, dogs and drones. police say the baby could still be alive but fear it may have "come to harm" in freezing conditions. the rmt union says its members on the tube willjoin drivers from the aslef union in striking on budget day in two weeks time. the rmt�*s long been in dispute over pensions, job losses and contractual agreements. tfl�*s urged both unions to call off their action.

an inquest into the death of the first known child to die in the uk from coronavirus is due to start today. is—year—old ismail mohamed abdulwahab from brixton died three days after testing positive with the virus in march 2020. the inquiry will examine whether mistakes were made in his treatment. a campaign to restore london's historical drinking fountains is hoping it will help reduce the city's plastic pollution. there used to be about a thousand fountains in the capital, but according to the heritage of london trust, there are now only about 100 after many were switched off in the '70s and '80s. now they want to restore them to be used by the public. there is no question, people are attracted to these things. you restore them beautifully, obviously we put brand—new piping in it, these are not the victorian lead pipes, these are brand—new piping. we've got some lovely gilding on the front so you make it an attractive part of the streetscape. people understand the history of it and they understand that you have done it, you know, with all the modern interior, but it is this beautiful thing that people

enjoy engaging with. let's take a look at the tubes now. there are minor delays on the hammersmith and city and the jubilee line. now onto the weather with kate kinsella. good morning. it's a largely cloudy start this morning. high pressure is still in charge, so it's quite a quiet day but we have still got rather overcast skies. one or two showers added into the mix as well today, but they should be fairly light, blowing through on a north—easterly breeze. now we could just see one or two brighter spells, especially further south through this morning. you might even see a glimpse of sunshine, but that cloud really takes over and temperatures today between 7—9. overnight tonight, some slightly drier airjust starts to edge in from the continent. that helps to shift the cloud out of the way, break it up so we'll get some clear spells and under, of course, the clear skies, it is going to get a bit chilly. a minimum down to zero, so we could just see a bit of frost first thing tomorrow morning. now high pressure

is still in charge. we've got a bit more sunshine around for thursday and temperatures very similar. but as we head further through this week, the temperature is slowly slipping away and it is going to get much colder by the end of the weekend and into next week. that's it for now, but head to our website to find out more about the smart suit that's changing children's lives. i'll be back in an hour. now here's sally and jon. bye bye. hello, this is breakfast withjon kay and sally nugent. thank you very much indeed for joining us. we've been reporting that the former health secretary matt hancock reportedly failed to follow expert advice that anyone entering a care home at the start of the pandemic should be tested for covid, it has been claimed. whatsapp messages

leaked to the telegraph newspaper suggest mr hancock was told in april 2020 there should be "testing of all going into care homes". isabel oakeshott, of course, she helped him write his book. in the last couple of minutes, we've just received a statement from mr hancock, this is what he says. "these stolen messages have been doctored to create a false the story that matt rejected clinical advice on care home testing. this is flat wrong." so that statement released on behalf of matt hancock, former health secretary, in the last few minutes. we will speak to nick eardley, our chief political correspondent at westminster is putting all this together and get an update from him as breakfast goes on this morning. that statement just into

as breakfast goes on this morning. that statementjust into us as breakfast goes on this morning. that statement just into us from matt hancock. the family of woman who was brutally killed by her estranged husband are launching an appeal to prevent his early release from prison. joanna simpson was a week away from divorcing robert brown when he took her life in 2010. he was convicted of manslaughter due to diminished responsibility, and given a 26—year sentence, but he could be released after serving just 13 years. helena wilkinson explains. it was a truly shocking case. mother—of—twojoanna simpson killed by her husband in a brutal attack more than a decade ago. british airways pilot robert brown had driven to their marital home in ascot in berkshire in october 2010. armed with a clawhammer, he hit his wife around the head at least iii times. she had tried desperately to defend herself. their two children were in the playroom. they heard the attack. brown then buried his wife

in a makeshift grave he had dug some weeks earlier in windsor great park. the following day he rang the police and was arrested. at his trial, jurors heard that brown had been consumed by anger during the course of their marriage and that a prenuptial agreement signed had caused him continuing resentment. he said he had killed his wife over an argument over schools. the couple were in the middle of divorce proceedings. brown was cleared of murder, but had admitted manslaughter on the grounds of diminished responsibility. last year, in an exclusive interview with bbc breakfast and radio 1! woman's hour, the then duchess of cornwall, now queen consort, was reunited withjoanna simpson's mother, diana parkes. they'd met previously in 2016. camilla creditsjoanna's story with inspiring her to become a domestic abuse campaigner.

i don't think i would be as involved in it now if i hadn't met you. i mean, you were the one that started out my passion. and i remember saying to you at the time, you know, i don't know what it is, but i really, really want to do something to help. that's how it all started. joanna's mother now wants thejustice secretary, dominic raab, to intervene over the possible release of her daughter's killer. she says her family are very fearful that he could be released halfway through his sentence. speaking on sunday, mr raab agreed to meet the family. would you be willing to meet diana? oh, yes, of course. and i meet lots of victims or- bereaved in these appalling cases. this case isn't coming up until later in the year. i within the powers i've got, i i will look at this as i would look at any other very rigorously. myjob is always to put i victims first so of course i'll meet with with her.

and secondly, to protect the public. a spokesman for thejoanna simpson foundation said they were very pleased that the justice secretary had agreed to meetjoanna's family so that they can explain in their own words what they feel has gone so wrong in this case. we are confident, they said, that when mr raab is presented with all the facts, he will agree with us that all action needs to be taken to prevent the release of robert brown. more than a decade afterjoanna was killed, herfamily continues to fight in her name. helena wilkinson, bbc news. we can speak now to formerjustice secretary sir robert buckland. good morning to you. just listening to that report, my first question to you is how can a criminal like robert brown be released so soon after serving just 13 years of a 26

year sentence?— after serving just 13 years of a 26 year sentence? yes, well, the law that applied _ year sentence? yes, well, the law that applied then _ year sentence? yes, well, the law that applied then was _ year sentence? yes, well, the law that applied then was that - year sentence? yes, well, the law. that applied then was that automatic release at halfway was the applicable rule. as a result of changes i brought through in a recent act of parliament, that has now been extended to two thirds of a sentence to be served, so he would be looking to attain it much further in the future and there's a new power in the act i brought forward which allows the secretary of state to look at whether or not automatic release shouldn't apply and that the parole board should make a decision where there is evidence that the person presents a continuing risk, and it's that power that the family ofjoanna and everybody affected by this appalling crime is asking dominic raab to look at. and i'm very pleased to hear he's going to be the family. obviously he's got to make the decision in a proper way ——

meet the family. i know he will do that. there is progress. nothing can take away from the devastating effect of brown's actions upon the family and upon a woman who had a right to life that has been extinguished by a brutal act of homicide. i extinguished by a brutal act of homicide. ~ ., , ., extinguished by a brutal act of homicide. ~ ., ., , homicide. i know you have been workin: homicide. i know you have been working closely _ homicide. i know you have been working closely with _ homicide. i know you have been working closely with joanna's i homicide. i know you have been i working closely with joanna's family and when we hear her mother diana saying all action needs to be taken to prevent his release, what are the options? to prevent his release, what are the o tions? ~ to prevent his release, what are the otions? ~ .,, ., , .,, �* options? well, the options as i've exlained options? well, the options as i've earplained just _ options? well, the options as i've explained just now _ options? well, the options as i've explained just now are _ options? well, the options as i've explained just now are for - options? well, the options as i've explained just now are for the i explained just now are for the secretary of state, dominic raab, to look at whether or not he can apply automatic release and ask the parole board to assess whether or not robert brown should be released. and in this case, i think that that could well apply. and i think more generally, we are waiting for the outcome to a review into the

sentencing of domestic homicide, a review i ordered when i was secretary of state where i'm hoping recommendations will be made about the way in which domestic killers are sentenced, to reflect the huge concern that exists right across our country about cases such as this whilst that might not, of course, effect of this particular case, but it could help many, many victims in future and offer a higher degree of public protection from the perpetrators of such appalling acts. just a few weeks ago we had from the chief inspector of probation who said that staff shortages are severely affecting that services ability to manage offenders. if this man is released, are you confident that the probation service would be able to effectively monitor him? well, the probation service in the last few years has recruited many more probation officers, certainly an extra 1000 recruited by the time

i left office. and i think in a case of this seriousness, i would expect to see very stringent licensed conditions, restricting the freedom of this individual and proper monitoring of what he is doing and where he is. in order to make sure that the family is as safe as possible. putting ourselves in the shoes of the family, one can understand theirfear shoes of the family, one can understand their fear and concerns, and it is therefore really incumbent upon the probation service to make sure that the most stringent licensed conditions to be imposed if this man is to be released. irate licensed conditions to be imposed if this man is to be released. we know that the queen _ this man is to be released. we know that the queen consort _ this man is to be released. we know that the queen consort has - this man is to be released. we know that the queen consort has credited| that the queen consort has credited this particular case with her inspiring her to become a domestic abuse campaignerand, inspiring her to become a domestic abuse campaigner and, throughout the years, since her daughter's death, her mother diana has shown really immeasurable strength. it's one of those cases many, many people will remember but the family had to be incredibly determined, haven't they? i want to pay tribute to diana. we

are meeting later today. there is an eventin are meeting later today. there is an event in westminster to highlight this case. she has with great dignity brought forward these issues. she is working with the campaign charity macro refuge which does great work to safeguard women and families in these situations. and i think she's not doing this just about this case, important though it is, she's raising wider issues that affect many families and victims of domestic homicide. it's a cruel and vicious offence. it leaves a dreadful legacy. and of course, very often it is the end of many years of abuse, that many people suffer in silence. lifting the lid on domestic abuse is not an easy or comfortable thing to do. but we've got to continue to do it in order to protect thousands of women and children and indeed men, as well,

who are suffering out there. i think the queen's involvement and interest in this is hugely important. this is an issue which crosses the party lines, it crosses all divide within our community, it can affect people from all backgrounds, and that's why i think it is admirable the queen is taking such an interest and showing such commitment to this very important issue. i’m such commitment to this very important issue.— such commitment to this very important issue. i'm going to talk to one other— important issue. i'm going to talk to one other story _ important issue. i'm going to talk to one other story this _ important issue. i'm going to talk to one other story this morning . to one other story this morning before we let you go. you go. you were in cabinet at the time of the pandemic so what do you make of the reports in the daily telegraph this morning, reports which are denied by the health secretary matt hancock, that he rejected advice from chris whitty on whether or not people going into care homes should be tested. what do you make of that story which is all over the papers today? story which is all over the papers toda ?, . story which is all over the papers toda 7, . . story which is all over the papers toda 7, , , ., , , today? just seeing it for myself, i rather today? just seeing it for myself, i gather that _ today? just seeing it for myself, i gather that there _ today? just seeing it for myself, i gather that there are _ today? just seeing it for myself, i gather that there are denials i today? just seeing it for myself, i | gather that there are denials from mr hancock. i think it's important

now that all this material is out there for it to be shared with the ongoing inquiry. ithink there for it to be shared with the ongoing inquiry. i think people should have nothing to fear from openness. i think the public deserve explanations about the full extent of decisions that were made during that very difficult time. i can't comment precisely about the merits of this particular issue. i've not seen what's been said back and forth. but i do think that it's important that all of us cooperate fully with the inquiry and that we should take a nothing to fear approach, nothing to hide approach, here, when it comes to this very, very important issue. do here, when it comes to this very, very important issue.— here, when it comes to this very, very important issue. do you think there might _ very important issue. do you think there might be — very important issue. do you think there might be more _ very important issue. do you think there might be more messages i very important issue. do you think. there might be more messages like this that should be open and available for the public to see? well, i gather there are quite a few million words that have been disclosed. that will probably cover a lot of messages to and from various people. i gather that there

is a big file that the newspaper has which perhaps we will see more of and perhaps will be made accessible to the public as well. but i do think that, in the course of this openness, i think working with the inquiry would be a sensible way forward in order to help them marshall relevant evidence so the fullest picture can be built and that there can be a positive outcome from an inquiry in regard to what we have learned and what we need to do in future if we, god forbid, ever face such an emergency again. thank ou ve face such an emergency again. thank you very much- _ face such an emergency again. thank you very much. thank— face such an emergency again. thank you very much. thank you. _ face such an emergency again. thank you very much. thank you. good i you very much. thank you. good morning- — you very much. thank you. good morning. thank _ you very much. thank you. good morning. thank you _ you very much. thank you. good morning. thank you for - you very much. thank you. good morning. thank you forjoining l you very much. thank you. good i morning. thank you forjoining us. john's here with the sport. it's a very important day for cricket, isn't it? two and a half years since the former cricketer azeem rafiq first made the claims

about the racism he experienced as a player at yorkshire cricket club and the impact it had not only on his career, his personal life, his family, his mental health, you might remember that really harrowing testimony he gave in front of a parliamentary committee which feels not long ago. and, significantly, now we will see this commission presiding over the coming days for possible disciplinary proceedings being brought not only against yorkshire cricket club but against seven other individuals and i think it's a way i guess they are trying now to draw a line under what was a difficult and harrowing time, not just for azeem rafiq, but for english cricket as a whole. good morning. it is the scandal that rocked english cricket. and it has been a long time since azeem rafiq first made claims of racism at yorkshire cricket club, later calling english cricket "institutionally racist". today that long—awaited disciplinary hearing will begin in london, which is due to take place in public — a first for the cricket discipline commission, with rafiq due to appear in person to give evidence, as our sports

editor dan roan reports. on the field, english cricket is on a high. their drawn series against new zealand this week part of a revival that has seen the team win ten of their last 12 tests. but off it, escaping the past is difficult. a disciplinary hearing in relation to racism allegations made by former yorkshire player azeem rafiq starts today and some in the sport admit it won't be easy. cleaning up the wounds, there is a lot of festering stuff that has to be dealt with and it's being done and it's it's an unhappy situation now, but i do believe things will improve greatly. two years ago, yorkshire sparked outrage by not disciplining anyone, despite rafiq being found to have suffered racial harassment, plunging the county into crisis. the whistle—blower gave harrowing testimony to mps about the abuse he said he suffered at the hands of some former colleagues at yorkshire. it just seems to be an acceptance in the institution from the leaders and no—one ever stamped it out.

disciplinary proceedings were then brought by the ecb against yorkshire and seven of its former players, who were all charged with bringing the game into disrepute. yorkshire itself and its former batsman gary ballance accepted their charges and will not participate. five others, including ex—england bowler matthew hoggard, withdrew from the hearing, criticising the ecb process. former england captain michael vaughan is said to be the only charged individual to appear in person, accused of making a racist comment to rafiq and three other asian players during a yorkshire match in 2009. vaughan, who has repeatedly denied the claims, stepped back from his broadcasting work at the bbc last year after he was charged. the sanctions that could be imposed by the cdc commission normally relate to curtailing their activities as players or suspending them. obviously, as former players, that's not going to affect them. however, the cdc commission could think creatively and perhaps ban them from the grounds for a certain period of time, which could curtail their activities in the media.

azeem rafiq's allegations and the way they've been handled since have cast a long shadow over, not just yorkshire cricket, but the wider english game, as well, forcing it to confront its record on inclusivity and diversity. the sense that this scandal will finally come to a head over the coming days. and with a landmark report into levels of equality in english cricket also expected soon, the game is now braced for a period of intense scrutiny. dan roan, bbc news. the fa cup fifth round is well under way, the big result coming last night as blackburn wrote a new chapter in their history according to their manager. after the biggest upset of the round so far, beating premier league leicester, and what a goal for their first, through tyrhys dolan. their second came from sammie szmodics and whilst leicester pulled one back, rovers held on, into the quarter finals for the first time in a long time. despite the win for manchester city

over bristol city, phil foden who got two goals, admitted to one of the worst parts of his career after losing his place in the team since the world cup, but says he's been 100 % fit. they won 3—0 as they reached the quarter finals. and of course plenty more to come tonight. not least grimsby and their fansjoined by a tonight. not least grimsby and their fans joined by a few inflatable had ducks, harry the haddock. i can't wait for that. more of that later on because mike has been up there. —— had ducks. he's experienced what it's like for a community very excited about the big game to come tonight. and harry the haddock is making a comeback. we got some friends with this in the studio later on. harry is back. two harrys. thank you. and two portions of chips, please, as well. you can get very hungry watching it. thank you.

time now for another story from the bbc�*s "we were there" collection of first—hand accounts and memories of world war two. you've been sending in your stories and connections. today's feature is thanks to breakfast viewer lynsey, who wanted to recommend her nan, olive mitton. olive was just 16 when she landed a job as a messenger girl at bletchley park, home of top secret code breakers. tim muffett went to meet her. you see, that's where all the listeners were, up here, yeah. bletchley park, a place where codes were cracked, secret nazi messages revealed, and the course of world war two altered. yeah. oh, yeah, over there. that's where it used to be. it was also where 94—year—old olive mitton landed her firstjob during the second world war.

there were 16 messengers, and i think i'm the only one that's left. all the others have gone. tell us about the work you were doing here. i had to sort the mail out and then deliver it three times in the morning and three times in the afternoon. come back from my rounds, sort the mail out again into the pigeonholes ready for the next one. did you have any idea as to what was in those envelopes which you were taking around? none at all, none at all. it was just kept secret. they've made a lovely place of it now. olive was 16 when she got the job. she'd onlyjust left school. thanks to codebreakers such as alan turing and captured german enigma machines that enabled encrypted nazi messages to be understood, the envelopes olive sorted and delivered almost certainly contained information that changed history.

being able to decipher nazi communications had a huge impact during world war two, and some of the specific details as to how that was done are still officially secret. but it's clear it wasn't just the codebreakers who played a key role here. so, what bletchley park is rather thanjust a codebreaking centre, it's better described as a sort of information management system. it takes foreign communications in and it outputs intelligence. someone like olive, what she was doing, taking these messages around the site, i mean, how important was that role? well, it's vital because, of course, there are so many different components of the organisation here. it's a very complex web of connections and all these people have to be joined up. so olive's was just as important as anyone else's role here. without the people at every level of the organisation, none of the system works. just like olive did,

megan goes to school nearby and has been helping us illustrate olive's work here. megan, what's it like to meet someone who has actually worked here for real? it's really nice. i think it's amazing that someone who's11i was doing a job that maybe most 14—year—olds nowadays wouldn't have done. bletchley park was also where olive met the love of her life, thomas. i used to say, "i'd like to go out with him." and then i married him. we used to just sit on the bank. it brings back lots of memories. the work that went on at bletchley park remained secret for many years after world war two. now it's open to visitors. interactive displays tell its story. but those who worked here did so in the shadows. she doesn't like to talk a lot

about what she did during the war because she doesn't see it as anything particularly special or noteworthy. but now that it's come out that the work that was happening at bletchley park, it was essential to the war effort and nan was a part of making bletchley park run smoothly. she might not have been a code—breaker, but she was assisting them so that they could do their work efficiently. it's a place that for many years did not officially exist, yet helped the allies win the war and gave oliver a job which would change her life. tim muffett, bbc news, bletchley park. our thanks to olive for sharing her story. i'm sure you're watching this morning so thanks for that and good morning so thanks for that and good morning to you. we'd love to hear more like that. if you served in the second world war or you know someone who did, you can get in touch via the bbc website. the address is bbc. co. uk/wewerethere.

lots more of those stories to come in the months ahead. thousands of pubs face the risk of closure unless the chancellor acts to help them in the upcoming spring budget. that's according to industry groups. high energy prices and inflation driving up the cost of food could spell the end for many of our favourite locals. nina's at a pub near stockport for us this morning. i hope they are thriving because it looks gorgeous. it's wonderful and i'm going to dare to say it. i'm sensing spring in the air. i'm looking out towards the peak district. i'm imagining the beer garden out here, playing a game of pool with your pals, and of course heading to the bar for of pool with your pals, and of course heading to the barfor a refreshing tipple. pubs are... but there is a warning this morning that we could lose thousands in the year

ahead if there isn't support in the upcoming budget. let's look at the numbers from the british beer and pub association. they want 2000 closures could happen over the next 12 months taking with them 25,000 jobs without the right support. they've estimated that as pubs close and fewer people have extra cash to spend that 288 million fewer pints will be pulled, meaning a knock—on effect for brewers too. we've just come out of a recovery from the pandemic and over that period it estimated that around 13,000 hospitality venues were lost and it's notjust me saying that pubs have a special place in our heart. according to this research 69% of people believe that pubs bring people together. somebody knows all about that is joe. bring people together. somebody knows all about that isjoe. you were telling me earlier about one of your punters for whom you are the only interaction he gets. yes, he comes in to see me every day. every tea—time he comes in to see me and we are a highlight of his

"doctored to create a false story". former health secretary, matt hancock strongly denies allegations he rejected covid testing advice during the pandemic after his whatsapp messages are leaked by the journalist who helped write his book. more than 30 people have been killed and dozens injured after two trains collided in northern greece.

these live pictures show rescue workers searching the wreckage. fa cup offering plenty of drama and a revival for grimsby town who are enjoying a great run, and the fans are revelling in the revival of harry the haddock, the inflatable long linked with the club. and from diy sos to the grand canyon, we'll chat to nick knowles about his next big adventure. good morning and happy st davids day. the rent weather remains fairly stable, cloudy in places, sunshine and places, but turning much colder next weekend.

it's wednesday 1st of march. a major search is still ongoing for a two—month—old baby who police fear may have "come to harm" in freezing conditions near brighton. the child's parents, constance marten and her partner mark gordon, are being held on suspicion of gross negligence manslaughter but haven't given any more information about their baby, as vincent mcaviney reports. monday night in north brighton. after 53 days on the run, constance marten and mark gordon are spotted on cctv walking down a residential street. while shopping in this convenience store, they were spotted by a member of the public who called 999. shortly after, they were filmed again. officers arrested the couple without their baby walking towards an allotment site and golf course leading to the south downs. but despite finally having the couple in custody, they have not provided any further information about the condition or whereabouts of the child. police fear it could have been

abandoned in freezing conditions. they're now being held on suspicion of gross negligence manslaughter. around 200 officers from sussex and london's metropolitan police have worked around the clock to try to find the baby, whose sex is unknown and who is believed to have never had medical treatment. drones, a helicopter and sniffer dogs were all deployed to assist. in the daylight, officers work their way slowly through the large allotment the couple were thought to be heading towards. every shed and greenhouse was being checked in temperatures close to zero. 35—year—old constance marten comes from a hugely wealthy family with close ties to the royal family. she grew up in this country estate in dorset and was at drama school in 2016 when she first met 48—year—old mark gordon. gordon, a registered sex offender who was deported to britain from the united states in 2010 after spending 20 years in prison

for a rape he committed aged i4. ever since, they have led an isolated life. then in september, when martin was well into her pregnancy, they began moving around rental flats. police believe the baby was born in the back of a car in earlyjanuary. the couple came onto the police's radar onjanuary 5th when the car was found on fire on the side of the m61 near bolton. from there the pair took a taxi to liverpool, then another to harwich, arriving there on the morning of the 6th of january. by lunchtime on the 7th of january, they were in east london where they bought a blue tent from argos and abandoned their pushchair. there were then yet more taxi journeys, including a final one to the port of newhaven. since then, they've used a large amount of cash to live off grid and evade detection until monday night. injanuary, constance's father, napier martin, made this appeal to his daughter. darling constance, even though we remain estranged at the moment,

i stand by, as i have always done and as the family has always done, to do whatever is necessary for your safe return to us. whilst detectives hope the baby is alive, perhaps being looked after by someone else, they're becoming increasingly concerned. constance martin's father said on tuesday that whilst he's relieved that she's been found, he is worried about his missing grandchild they hope to finally meet. but after another night of freezing weather, that hope here is fading. vincent mcaviney, bbc news. yetunde yousef is at the allotments which are being searched. the which are being searched. focus of the search yestr morning the focus of the search yesterday morning was very much at the allotments where you are but it is now over a massive area, isn't it? yes, that's right. it's a major

search operation. some 91 square miles of open space has been searched through by police officers, met police are leading on this but sussex police are also supporting. some 200 officers are involved in this. they have been extensive searches in the allotments and around there, people combing through undergrowth, looking through water barrels, looking through sheds as well, and we know that what has been involved has been drones, thermal imaging cameras, helicopters and police sniffer dogs. a few yards from here is where constance marten and mark gordon were arrested, we know initially on suspicion of child neglect but yesterday on suspicion of gross negligence manslaughter. so the police are asking anyone with information to come forward, specifically asking for everyone —— anyone in the newhaven area because they are looking for the baby, desperate to find this baby. it might look sunny but it is really cold. they are hopeful but hopes are

(ems. morning, sally. obviously the decisions made around care homes at the start of the pandemic have been really controversial. and the telegraph has got hold of 100,000 whatsapp messages involving matt hancock. they got them via the journalist isabel oakeshott, she is pretty sceptical of some of the

government's policies on lockdown, and she helped right matt hancock's book which is how she got her hands on these messages. we have not seen them all so we don't know the context, we don't know the full content. the telegraph has published some of them this morning and there is a day in april 2020 where they publish a message which says that matt hancock had been given advice ljy matt hancock had been given advice by chris whitty, the chief medical officer, that everyone going into a care home should be tested. there is a message then later that day that says that the advice will not be that everyone should be tested, but everyone coming from a hospital should be tested. we have had a statement in the last couple of hours from matt hancock's team. i have got it here. safe to say they are pretty angry. they say these messages have been doctored to create a false story, speaking some people close to matt hancock, they say that crucial details have been

left out. the account they are giving that in between the messages that have been published and the two different editions, there was a meeting where matt hancock was told that it was not possible to test everyone going into a care home. frankly, there were not enough tests. they are saying, the spokesperson for mr hancock, was that he went as far as possible as fast as possible to expand testing and save lives. there has been a big debate about whether the government followed all of the advice it got with care homes, whether they knew about asymptomatic transmission of covid as early as april 2020, and whether more could have been done to protect care homes. two different accounts this morning of what went on. it's safe to say the controversy over some of those decisions is going to continue.— over some of those decisions is going to continue. thank you very much indeed. _ going to continue. thank you very much indeed, nick. _ going to continue. thank you very much indeed, nick. some - going to continue. thank you very. much indeed, nick. some breaking news out of northern recess morning.

—— in northern greece. at least 32 people are dead and 85 are injured after a passenger and a freight train collided in northern greece overnight. in larissa, emergency services have worked through the night to free survivors and are still at the scene this morning sorting through the wreckage as stephanie prentice reports. it's been described by local authorities as a powerful collision and a terrible scene. while passengers said the crash felt like being in an earthquake. translation: we heard a big bang. it was ten nightmareish seconds. we were turning over in the wagon till we fell on our sides and until the commotion stopped. and there was panic, cables everywhere, fire, the fire was immediate. as we were turning over we were being burned. the fire was right and left. as rescue teams work their way through these dark and smoky carriages, the death toll keeps rising after a high—speed collision in the night between a cargo train and a passenger train.

hundreds of passengers have been evacuated by rescue teams, some dragged to safety after crawling through upside down carriages. translation: it was chaos. tumbling over, fires, cables hanging, broken windows, people screaming, people trapped. these people are the lucky ones. fire officials say the first two carriages of the train completely disintegrated in the crash. the next two were derailed entirely. how two trains travelling in opposite directions came to directly collide will be the next issue officials will tackle. for now, theirfocus is on recovery, and as morning breaks in greece, the hope is that the light will bring survivors with it. stephanie prentice, bbc news. if there are any developments on the story we will bring them to you on the programme. it is

story we will bring them to you on the programme-— story we will bring them to you on the programme. it is 12 minutes past eiuht and the programme. it is 12 minutes past eight and you — the programme. it is 12 minutes past eight and you send _ the programme. it is 12 minutes past eight and you send some _ the programme. it is 12 minutes past eight and you send some wonderful. eight and you send some wonderful pictures to carol every morning, where do you think this one is from? you might be surprised, carol. absolutely right, this is a chilly majorca! majorca has had some dreadful weather in the last couple of days next to storm juliet, a heavy snow above 800 metres one to two metres of snow, and we have had snow down to sea level which is quite rare. some stations have reported as much as 180 millimetres of rain in 2a hours as well. and there have been gusts of wind yesterday after 76 miles an hour. so whipping up the seas around the balearics. and this system juliet is going to be rushing eastwards over the next few days, across sardinia, italy, the balkans and greece, heavy rain and thunderstorms, heavy and windy conditions and snow on the

alps. we could see some snow in our forecast next week, but for the next few days it is lots of cloud and also some showers. that is the picture today, a lot of cloud cover showers on the brisk wind in eastern areas, some sunshine to be had in the south—east and also across northern scotland and at times northern ireland. if you are down the north sea coastline with the brisk wind, it's going to feel cold. it's going to feel cold wherever you are rather like yesterday. this evening and overnight, still a lot of cloud cover showers across northern england, frequent showers in northern ireland and southern scotland and under clear skies in the west of scotland, and the south of england, particularly southeast, a touch of frost. tomorrow we start with some sunshine and although there is cloud around tomorrow, there is cloud around tomorrow, there will be more sunshine than today. with lighter winds, it will not feel as cold, particularly not so in the north sea coastline.

temperatures, seven to 10 degrees. as we head into the weekend and early part of next week, it will turn much colder and some of us will see some snow. we are ready for it, well, we are not but let's be ready by then! thank you, carol. the sight loss charity guide dogs says it's had a record number of people volunteering to raise puppies after breakfast highlighted a national shortage of dogs. yes, it's all thanks to our correspondent sean dilley, who has been without a guide dog since his previous companion sammy retired six months ago. he's now facing a two year wait but it's hoped that more volunteers looking after training dogs can reduce that wait, as sean reports. i couldn't imagine my life without rio. she's so important. she's my best friend, my constant companion, my means of independence, of getting about wherever i want to go, whenever i want to go, and living the life i want to lead.

this is the freedom guide dogs give their blind and visually impaired partners. rio is ella caulfield's first guide. if they didn't have each other, ella says she wouldn't be able to study maths at oxford. she gives me that independence that i do need, and i crave, that i need to live the life i want to lead. she's good for a cuddle at the end of an evening if i've had a bad day. and she's an excellent guide, she's very rarely led me astray. ella started to lose her sight at four years old. when she was 15, she received some bad news. i think because it happened gradually, it wasn't like an immediate shock of, "you're not going to see again." i was told i had a retina detachment and i definitely broke down then. i was with my dad. i remember him hugging me and the nurses kind of bringing me a cup of water, just kind of comforting me. and then i got booked in for surgery the next day. doctors operated to try to save any sight they could, but those attempts failed. nothing came of it.

so i've been left with just minimal light perception in my right eye. but it's not useful. i can only see light if i look directly into the sun or into a light bulb. for ella, a new reality. she learnt new life skills and how to read braille. her application for a guide dog was accepted in may 2017. then around a year later... it was actually my mum picked up the call so i hadn't got home from school yet. my mum picked up the call. it was someone from guide dogs saying "we've got a match for ella." i think ijust got very giggly and very kind of, yeah, very excited. like, yes, this is happening. never, says ella, would she ever want to be without a dog again. just feeling so much more confident and independent and happy that i had this friend with me who was going to be there permanently with me. rio provides such a kind of welfare support to me. ella and rio's is one of 3,695 partnerships currently working in the uk, down from around 5,000 before the pandemic when breeding

was paused for five months. the charity lost a third of their volunteers. come on, good. good boy! it's been six months since my guide dog sammy retired. sammy is more important to me and you always will be, sammy, you'll always be my boy. sharing my story is by far the hardest thing i've ever done in my career. the impact, though, has been huge. you are actually quite moved today. the bonds you two have. the niblock family were one of many watching that day. it was heartbreaking to watch it, really. itjust made us think, why not sign up when we've got the time, the space and everything just to help make a difference. they're among more than 11,500 people who've applied to volunteer since sammy's last walk. we applied, they came to see us and we're getting a puppy at the beginning of april. archie! touch! guide dogs say applications spiked then and again when we featured lisa allison

and her guide dog puppies. i would like to say to bbc breakfast viewers, thank you so much to everyone who's already applied to volunteer at guide dogs. since the coverage, we've seen a peak in applications. so injanuary alone, we received almost 3,000 volunteer applications. 2,500 of those were to raise puppies, compared with 2,000 for the whole of 2019, the last pre—pandemic year. the charity says what they need now is fosterers to look after guide dogs in training, people who can drop them off and pick them up from training offices. what this role particularly is is a six month commitment to supporting a puppy to go to school and look after that puppy in evenings and weekends. jenny is hannah cooper's fifth foster dog. good girl, play time! she's six and a half weeks into her training. when she's not learning, she's at home having fun. it means that they are in a really relaxed, comfortable home situation

in the evenings and on the weekends. and they get used to, you know, in this case, living in a flat. hannah's job in digital content creation means she gets to work from home a lot. fostering is a commitment. it takes me probably half an hour to drop her off in the morning and to pick her up. so it's about an hour a day that i spend commuting to and from the training centre, which actually isn't that much. and hannah doesn't plan to stop any time soon. when i hearfrom guide dog owners who have had a guide dog and how much it changes their life, like, that is incredible. and it makes me feel really proud to have been a tiny, tiny part of that. far from playing a tiny part, guide dogs say hannah's role is vital if they're to cut waiting times. hannah knows their time together is not forever. but fosterers like her are needed to help dogs likejenny become guides for people like me.

that was sean dilley reporting. hejoins us in the studio now, along with his retired guide dog sammy, and prospective volunteers jess and evie niblock. never mind you, sean, sammy is here! that was sammy talking, saying, how you! good morning to you as well, jess and evie. it has been such an emotional series of films from sean, first of all, if i can come to you, we know that sammy retired six months ago? six. we know that sammy retired six months ago?— we know that sammy retired six months auo? ,, ., , ., ., ., months ago? six months ago today. here we are — months ago? six months ago today. here we are reunited, _ months ago? six months ago today. here we are reunited, what - months ago? six months ago today. here we are reunited, what is - months ago? six months ago today. here we are reunited, what is it - here we are reunited, what is it like to be back together? i here we are reunited, what is it like to be back together?- like to be back together? i see sammy a _ like to be back together? i see sammy a lot. _ like to be back together? i see sammy a lot, there's - like to be back together? i see sammy a lot, there's a - like to be back together? i see sammy a lot, there's a lot - like to be back together? i see sammy a lot, there's a lot of. like to be back together? i see - sammy a lot, there's a lot of social media comments, not an awful lot, what about the animal welfare? the choices are, you can come out and do 17 hours a day with me, sammy, or play with a family and play with

i did my best to explain this notion, in that case hannah, it's marvellous, she lives in a flat in central london in her case and she picks the dog up in the evenings, take the dog home, plays with them, gets to do all sorts of environmental enrichment so that dogs are happy throughout, it's an alternative so they are not in kennels. and drops them off in the morning, she says it's like taking them to school. thank you for doing what you do and i am talking for myself here, because eventually, goodness knows when, i know they are going to do their best, i will get another guide dog. i stay in contact with all of my puppy raisers and i don't know why anyone who has a guide dog would not. i don't know why anyone who has a guide dog would not.— don't know why anyone who has a guide dog would not. i imagine they feel like family. _ guide dog would not. i imagine they feel like family. they _ guide dog would not. i imagine they feel like family. they really - guide dog would not. i imagine they feel like family. they really are - feel like family. they really are and sammy — feel like family. they really are and sammy here, _ feel like family. they really are and sammy here, what - feel like family. they really are and sammy here, what i - feel like family. they really are and sammy here, what i like i feel like family. they really are and sammy here, what i like isi feel like family. they really are - and sammy here, what i like is when we pick it up like old mates, really. i do not let him guide, i will admit to this now, i was

safeguarding terms is contextual ball. lam getting better, i safeguarding terms is contextual ball. i am getting better, i don't want to put myself in a position where i have to put up with that. so to a great extent, being without sammy and that stuff altogether, if i said the effect had been profound, it would be a gross understatement. well, thank you very much. the effects of your film have been profound as well. the effects of your film have been rofound as well. ., , profound as well. the documentaries on the iplayer- _ profound as well. the documentaries on the iplayer. we _ profound as well. the documentaries on the iplayer. we will _ profound as well. the documentaries on the iplayer. we will mention - profound as well. the documentaries on the iplayer. we will mention it - on the iplayer. we will mention it ri . ht on the iplayer. we will mention it riaht now! on the iplayer. we will mention it right now! the — on the iplayer. we will mention it right now! the bond _ on the iplayer. we will mention it right now! the bond between - on the iplayer. we will mention it right now! the bond between you i on the iplayer. we will mention it - right now! the bond between you and sammy and you are the family is lovely to see. you can see much more on that story in the documentary: britain's guide dog shortage. that's available now on bbc iplayer. and it's brilliant. there you go! that is an _ and it's brilliant. there you go! that is an entirely _ and it's brilliant. there you go! that is an entirely independent| that is an entirely independent reviewer of the documentary, sean daly, who made it! breakfast is on bbc one until 9.15 when morning live takes over. sam and gethin can tell us what they have planned. i thought i might get happy st david's day in a welsh from one of

was searched through the night by the met and sussex police who are using helicopters, dogs and drones. police say the baby could still be alive but fear it may have "come to harm" in freezing conditions. the rmt union says its members on the tube willjoin drivers from the aslef union in striking on budget day in two weeks time. the rmt�*s long been in dispute over pensions, job losses and contractual agreements. tfl�*s urged both unions to call off their action. e—scooter riders involved in crashes are more likely to suffer serious injuries than cyclists, according to new research. the team at queen mary's university of london found serious injuries in e—scooter users had a correlation with low helmet usage, age and riding while intoxicated. e—scooter riders also sustained more severe head injuries. a campaign to restore london's historical drinking fountains is hoping to help reduce

the city's plastic pollution. there used to be about a thousand fountains in the capital, but according to campaigners there are now only around 100 after many were switched off in the '70s and '80s. the heritage of london trust want them to be restored for use as free water refill stations. there is no question, people are attracted to these things. you restore them beautifully, obviously we put brand—new piping in it, these are not the victorian lead pipes, these are brand—new piping. we've got some lovely gilding on the front so you make it an attractive part of the streetscape. people understand the history of it and they understand that you have done it, you know, with all the modern interior, but it is this beautiful thing that people enjoy engaging with. let's take a look at the tubes now. and just some minor delays on thejubilee line at the moment. now onto the weather with kate kinsella. good morning. it's a largely cloudy start this morning. high pressure is still in charge, so it's quite a quiet day but we have still got rather overcast skies. one or two showers added

into the mix as well today, but they should be fairly light, blowing through on a north—easterly breeze. now we could just see one or two brighter spells, especially further south through this morning. you might even see a glimpse of sunshine, but that cloud really takes over and temperatures today between 7—9. overnight tonight, some slightly drier airjust starts to edge in from the continent. that helps to shift the cloud out of the way, break it up so we'll get some clear spells and under, of course, the clear skies, it is going to get a bit chilly. a minimum down to zero, so we could just see a bit of frost first thing tomorrow morning. now high pressure is still in charge. we've got a bit more sunshine around for thursday and temperatures very similar. but as we head further through this week, the temperature is slowly slipping away and it is going to get much colder by the end of the weekend and into next week. that's it for now but head to our website to find out more about the smart suit that's changing children's lives. bye bye.

hello, this is breakfast withjon kay and sally nugent. harry and harry and john. yes, a perfect time to reintroduce harry. shall we explain? ever since 1989 grimsley made a real splash in the fa cup at the time. 2000 of these turned up at the away end when grimsby played wimbledon back in the fifth round of the fa cup, a huge moment in the clubs history, and ever since then, these inflatables have been synonymous with any kind of special moment in the club a's history. waving them around. i think we are going to be a meme if we do this. watch out. cue the music. they are playing southampton tonight so lots of grimsby fans making a trip to the south coast tonight where they will of course be joined by several harry inflatables. they are on their way. haddocks, they are.

exciting times. we will hear from mike in a moment who has been there to sample the scene and sample some fish and chips. fifth round, win and you're just two games away from an fa cup final. four matches last night, four more tonight. the biggest upset of the round so far, blackburn who beat leicester. their manager says they've written another historic chapter into the club's history. 2—1 they won last night. great moment for the fans. into the quarterfinals for the first time in a long time. goal of the round? surely this from joao paulinha for fulham who beat leeds 2—0. they're now a couple of wins from a first fa cup final since the '70s. there were wins for brighton and manchester city last night. don't think anyone will top that goal, though. there are four more ties tonight and that includes arguably the tie of the round. we're talking grimsby town. great chance to reintroduce harry the haddock. back of the net. there he is. a

beauty, absolutely. 2000 of these will probably be in the stands later. we have two of our own. mike has been to grimsby having a look around and gauging what it's like for harry to be making a well deserved comeback. the town more famous for its catch of the day is finally landing the big ones again in the fa cup, beating teams from the divisions above on their way to the fifth round at southampton. and it's breathing life back into harry haddock, the inflatable fish mascot who first shot to fame in the giant—killing cup run of 1989, when fourth division grimsby caused a major shock at top flight middlesbrough and then took the lead at cup holders wimbledon. would it be a day for old harry the haddock? should have seen the one that got away. in fact, there were quite a few haddocks on show at wimbledon.

alexander! behind that goal, a shoal of inflatable haddocks. a feast ofjubilation. in harry haddock, it wasjust phenomenal and it went sort of national and i think a bit worldwide as well. - it was great sight, unbelievable. i think for me it wasn't a problem because i was a local lad anyway. so i was born here and i knew the fishing industry and all things like that. but to the other lads they was amazed with it. so just to bring that memory back, it was great for local people, for the players, everyone at the club. # sing when we're fishing. # we only sing when we're fishing... # sing when we're fishing. decades on, thanks to another cup run, the fans are living the bream again and the haddocks are connecting the past with the present. scorer in the last round, harry clifton, also born and bred here, is feeling the wave of support. it's a cool way ofjust putting our stamp on it, on the cup, and just having a way where we can

be recognised and itjust gives you that lift and that determination and just that to just leave everything on the pitch and give it absolutely everything and the fans are with you so it's like literally like a 12th man. # we only sing when we're fishing. the formerjournalist who came up with the original harry haddock back in 1989 never imagined the idea would blow up to such an extent and be back with a new design, as the old one is a bit battered. it came out ofjust a throwaway line in a terrace report, you know, during an fa cup run. and i can't believe 3a years later that here we are still talking about harry haddock. traditionally the trawlers from grimsby, fished for haddock. the haul was cod. so it's very much synonymous with the town, is haddock and grimsby. now, at first, tonight's opponent, southampton, said they would not allow the inflatable haddocks into their ground for the match until the hot air created on social media led to a change of heart,

and judging by sales, a whole shoal of several thousand will now be swimming south. everything's taken a back seat to harry. real excitement particularly for our young fans who haven't seen us have this kind of success before. # we only sing when we're fishing. obviously a major, major part of the local history, fish. so obviously we'll chant about it in the stands. so let everyone know about it. come on, the mariners! you know, in the more traditional fish and chip shops of grimsby and cleethorpes, cod is off the menu for good reason. it's just all about the haddock. and while this fa cup run for the club has been a glorious glimpse into the past, harry here in different form, of course, there's also a chance to now see the future when the fish in some ways may have had its chips. the club you see is on the up. it has new owners who, just like the area, are embracing new horizons.

# take me back to rustic town. we declared a new kit sponsor at the start of this season, and they're leading a renewables revolution in the town. we're seeing the ambition of the football club inspiring others, and that ambition reflected in the rest of the town. if you thought you know about grimsby, look again. # i want to ride your fairground. # take air along the quay. # grimsby. eltonjohn knew it back in the 1970s, singing this tribute to grimsby, a town indeed named after a danish fisherman called grim, who arrived at the time of the vikings. ideal material for comedian and huge grimsby fan lloyd griffith, who's currently away on his uk tour. a lot of people do go, "oh, you put the grim in grimsby" and it's just, "0h, we've heard it all before." and you just wonder what that if the bloke who settled was called steve or barry,

i mean barryby or steveby, but he was called grim and we just have to deal with it. but yeah, it's like a bit of a joke that people go, "oh, it's grim in grimsby" but you know what, it's not. although looking out at the moment it's quite grey. after so many years when this club was all at sea in non—league backwaters, the fans of these supposed minnows no longerfeel like such a fish out of water. mike bushell, bbc news in cleethorpes in grimsby. i love the pictures of them celebrating. add a few haddocks into the mix, amazing, right? perfection. 4000 fans going down. at least one eachin 4000 fans going down. at least one each in hand. quite likely. what are we going to do with these? keep them for posterity? we might need them.

the quarterfinal beckons. the next round. southampton might have something to say about that. good luck blowing it up. it took a while. the match is tonight. and the quarterfinal, two games away from a potential final. quarterfinal, two games away from a potentialfinal. imagine that. keep your haddock, absolutely. watch out for the tackle, as well. sorry. 0h! you've been sending is and lots of pictures this morning of beautiful daffodils because it saint david's day. carol, good morning. where are you? sorry, i'm so distracted by your terrible fishing jokes, sorry. we promised you pictures and we got some for you. cliff sent us this one in where they're already in full bloom. the daffodils are out. beautiful ones here from alan in cardiff. and one of my favourites — ruby the labrador running through the daffodils in cornwall, sent in by her owner, amy. still celebrating saint david's day,

a cold start across western scotland in south—east england where we have had some frost. a lot of cloud around today but we will see some breaks. in northern ireland, northern and western scotland and also the south—east. elsewhere, we could see the odd hole punched in but we have got a brisk north—easterly wind coming in from the north sea blowing the showers across eastern england, south—east scotland, the midlands and wales and down into some southern counties. generally speaking, the showers will be lightened fairly hit and miss. these are the temperatures. 7—9. 8—9 down the north sea coast line but when you add on the wind, it will feel more like 4—5. once again come a day for wrapping up warmly. not just on the north sea coastline but wherever you are. if you found it cold yesterday, you will find it cold yesterday, you will find it cold again today. overnight, we hang on to a lot of cloud. some showers coming in across northern england. frequent showers in northern ireland and southern scotland. in the north

and southern scotland. in the north and west of scotland, and parts of the south and east of england, under clear skies, the south and east of england, under clearskies, it's the south and east of england, under clear skies, it's going to be a cold night with some frost. tomorrow, high pressure still firmly in charge but there is isobars really opening up but there is isobars really opening up so that means it's not going to feel as cold particularly so down the north sea coastline. where we have had clear skies by night is where we will start off with some sunshine and although we still have areas of cloud, they will be more holes punched in the cloud tomorrow than today, so we're looking at a fair bit of sunshine. temperatures 7-10. fair bit of sunshine. temperatures 7—10. then, as we head towards friday, you can see how pressure still with us as we head into the weekend. we have a weather front sinking south, it is bumping into the high pressure so that's going to be a fairly weak affair bringing in some rain, some hill snow, as well. and although it's been cold this week, behind that weather front we see the deeper blues push across our shores indicating that it's going to turn colder yet. so come into the

latter part of the week, we still are chasing cloud amounts. some sunshine, if you showers, as we go to the weekend, and a weak weather front coming into the high pressure when introducing showers, some of them will be wintry particularly so on the hills. you might see sleet at lower levels at times but the temperature is the decline. especially into monday and tuesday. some of us will see some snow. at the moment, it looks like we could see some snow as far south as the south of england, but that's a long way off, so to be specific about where we are going to have it, it's still open to question. but it looks like it's going to turn milder by the time we get to the end of next week. the weather once again, sallyannejohn, is very week. the weather once again, sallyanne john, is very topsy—turvy and of course it's the first day of the meteorological spring today. we love to hear that, carol. that means better things are coming. a bit of sunshine may be.— better things are coming. a bit of sunshine may be. summer is not far awa . sunshine may be. summer is not far away- correct- _
