detention centre to remove people from the french coast. the news came at the end of the first summit when the two countries of five years. now, uk government loans meant to help keep companies afloat during the covid pandemic but billions of pounds were defrauded in the government's bounceback loan scheme. bbc investigation can reveal the story of a criminal gang is still more than £10 million of taxpayer money. they launder tens of millions more after a final court case which ended today, total of ten people now been sentenced. angus crawford has the details. bags full of cash. bundles of dirty notes. they even needed a safe. now, after a series of court cases, the inside story of the gang that stole £10 million of taxpayers�* money. i've never seen
1:32 am
anything like it. it is the biggest one i know of. it's the biggest one i've seen, and it's probably going to be the biggest one we will see for a long time. when covid shut down the economy, the chancellor announced the bounce back loan scheme. well, today, we announced a brand—new loan scheme... £50,000 on offerfor small firms with few questions asked. the gang used a network of bogus companies to make hundreds of claims. ringleaders artem terzyan and deivis grochiatskij received long prison sentences. they have strong links to lithuania, and we've learned that directors of two of the companies used in the fraud are still living there. and here they are — yekaterina kobrina and povilas bartkevicius, a model and a chef. we just want to ask you where the money went? what money?
1:33 am
the money from the bounce back loans. your name is on a company — bart solution — yes? and that received £10 million in your name. yeah, your name. i don't know anything. if i had some money or 10,000 here — i didn't work twojobs here. povilas tells us he has no idea his name was being used in this way. next, we tracked down yekaterina. nice to meet you. yeah, nice to meet you. i ask her about the company in her name. but i don't know anything, and you should ask other people. no comments — only with my lawyer. we have no idea if either of them knew what those companies were being used for, and the national crime 0ffice says their investigation is over.
1:34 am
it was a colossal sum of money gone to some very bad people. lord agnew was the government's counter fraud minister until he resigned, appalled by the loss of billions of pounds from the scheme. i'm worried that there is still a reluctance to grip this with real vigour. so, as we stand, do we think that those at the top of government have learned the lesson of the bounce back loans scheme? i would like to hope so but i'm not convinced. so, where does that leave us? we've found two people whose names are on the companies which were used for the money laundering and the bounce back loan fraud but we just don't know if they had any idea where the money came from and where it went to. and as for that money, are we going to find it? is the british taxpayer going to get it back? it looks highly unlikely. loans which kept firms afloat also made criminals rich. angus crawford, bbc news,

1:38 am
right, here comes the science bit. whereas normal video cameras record something like 25 still images or frames per second, migratory uses cameras that capture thousands per second. if you play these back at 25 frames per second, that's where you get your slow mo. they have filmed at over1 million frames per second and at that speed they only have enough storage space to capture two seconds. so how do you make sure it is the right to seconds?— sure it is the right to seconds? . �*, ., , ., sure it is the right to seconds? . �*, ., ., seconds? that's actually one of the incredible _ seconds? that's actually one of the incredible difficulties - the incredible difficulties when high—speed was on film because you have like 1000 feet of film and if you press go it's gone in mike seven seconds. so if something is going to happen and you don't quite know when, very difficult to get that. quite know when, very difficult to get that-— quite know when, very difficult to get that. hence slow mo has only really _ to get that. hence slow mo has only really been _ to get that. hence slow mo has only really been accessible - to get that. hence slow mo has only really been accessible to l only really been accessible to the industry on digital cameras. these continually record over their own footage and instead of a start button, you get a stop button. instead
1:39 am
of trying to predict when the thing will happen and hitting starts just before, when the thing happens, you hit stop and you get to keep the last few seconds. ., �* , you get to keep the last few seconds. . �* , ., , you get to keep the last few seconds-— seconds. that's actually the most stressful _ seconds. that's actually the most stressful part - seconds. that's actually the most stressful part of - seconds. that's actually the most stressful part of it - seconds. that's actually the most stressful part of it is l seconds. that's actually the most stressful part of it is i | most stressful part of it is i hope i don't miss the beginning by waiting too long and i hope i don't trigger too early. so for example if there's an explosion, you want have everything land, you don't want to wait too long to miss the beginning of the explosion. these days your phones consume 1000 frames a second for only a fraction of a second so what would your tips be for what works well in slow mo and what you need to think about? if works well in slow mo and what you need to think about?- you need to think about? if you can shoot _ you need to think about? if you can shoot 1000 _ you need to think about? if you can shoot 1000 frames - you need to think about? if you can shoot 1000 frames per- can shoot 1000 frames per second on your phone, just point out everything. i love anything with liquid. like a water balloon is the classic subject, it's what everyone does first, but i still find it fascinating that you probably water balloon, the rubber whips out of the almost immediately, even slow mo, and you're left with shape, a big lob of water.
1:40 am
most important thing for shooting slow mo when get was 1000 is you need the right light. lots of it. so for example under a regular incandescent light bulb or like a lamp you may find it home, chances are you will see the flickering of the electrical grid and it looks really unattractive in slow mo, it's really distracting to see the lights doing this, so should outdoors under the sun, the sun does not flicker, or get massive life like i've got. that's the more expensive option. that's the more expensive 0 tion. ., option. right then. time to make my — option. right then. time to make my own _ option. right then. time to make my own slow - option. right then. time to make my own slow mo. - option. right then. time to make my own slow mo. inl option. right then. time to - make my own slow mo. in order to get some precision moves at high speed, we are attaching the 2000 frames per second phantom camera to one another high—speed device that gav has recently got hold of. 0k! high—speed device that gav has recently got hold of. ok! this is bold, high—speed robotic arm thatis is bold, high—speed robotic arm that is popular with moviemakers, firstly because you can mount any camera you like onto the end of it and
1:41 am
secondly it's really fast. it's also motion controlled which means you can repeat the same suit before same precise move over and overfour suit before same precise move over and over four different takes and finally you can design of the move of the camera in your 3d visualisation software and import it straight into this and it will for you. and it says when the red light comes on, get out of the way. beep. slow mo set up a probe for —— migratory set up the robot. the software can even be made to trigger physical devices at different times which means things can be dropped part way through the camera move. today we are using like, sorry, judgement and practice to try to follow an out of date egg as it falls all the way down onto the floor. which it does not hit because i am in the way.— which it does not hit because i

and focused on the metatarsal head which is the ball of the foot. so without technology reengineering the structure you get less pressure on the balls of your feet, and get less pressure on the balls of yourfeet, and by loading more on your heels, you are able to decrease the lower back pain that people feel as well as the need stress because they are not trying to overcompensate and regain their centre of balance.— centre of balance. while taryn brinrs centre of balance. while taryn brings her _ centre of balance. while taryn brings her orthopaedic - centre of balance. while tarynj brings her orthopaedic surgery skills to the mix, her co—founder and rico knows a thing or two about shoes fit for the red carpet. brilliant. and rico already has 24 different fits her size available, but he tells me that is not enough.— is not enough. that's right. size really _ is not enough. that's right. size really doesn't - is not enough. that's right. size really doesn't exist i size really doesn't exist because you're lower feet speak a language that is unique. last week i a language that is unique. last weeki sent — a language that is unique. last week i sent you _ a language that is unique. last week i sent you some - a language that is unique. last week i sent you some photos of my feet next to a tape measure so you have an idea of my size, and you have picked out of the

' , ., the foot. so different parts of our feet are _ the foot. so different parts of our feet are different - the foot. so different parts of our feet are different sizes, l our feet are different sizes, but as most people don't have enrico and his tape measure at theirfeet enrico and his tape measure at their feet the enrico and his tape measure at theirfeet the idea here is that a 3d scanning machine will be available at shops to do the analysis. initially this will be for enrico's designs but it is something that other shoe companies could embrace. the device's detailed scans will be used to make custom—made shoes should fit perfectly all over, including the insoles to balance out the pressure. i think it is very important that shoe manufacturers are looking at this. for a start. i think if you talk about reducing pressure on the foot, that will definitely improve some of the biomechanics in the foot, so
1:54 am
we'll definitely improve foot pain. we'll definitely improve foot ain. , we'll definitely improve foot ain. pain. other companies are cominu pain. other companies are coming no _ pain. other companies are coming up with _ pain. other companies are coming up with their i pain. other companies are i coming up with their solutions to the problem as well. these look like a regular pair of heels, right? gait:tech also develops insoles that can be put in at the point of manufacture. although they are not personalised they also aim to redistribute pressure and better biomechanics. so the testis better biomechanics. so the test is coming out they feel? real benefit should be felt when you are wearing them for several hours, but i am going to give them a try now to see how they are when you first put them on. , them on. ok, the first thing i am very conscious _ them on. ok, the first thing i am very conscious of - them on. ok, the first thing i am very conscious of is i them on. ok, the first thing i am very conscious of is there | am very conscious of is there is a little bit more support at the back of my toes then i would normally feel. i thought they were going to support the archers more. but still feels normal. i still think the comfort of shoes is largely dependent on how soft the letter is around them. but that is what i have noticed now as i am only walking up and down in this small space. i would need
1:55 am
to do this for a couple of hours to really get a proper idea. i'm still not sure i am convinced that even though they feel better, heels will ever be as comfortable as flats. but i haven't put the custom—made ones to the test yet, so let's see. �* ., ., ., see. and now we have the grand unveilin: see. and now we have the grand unveiling of _ see. and now we have the grand unveiling of the _ see. and now we have the grand unveiling of the shoes _ see. and now we have the grand unveiling of the shoes because i unveiling of the shoes because they have arrived an hour going on right now. they have arrived an hour going on right now-— on right now. yeah, the most noticeable — on right now. yeah, the most noticeable thing _ on right now. yeah, the most noticeable thing is _ on right now. yeah, the most noticeable thing is they i on right now. yeah, the most noticeable thing is they feel i noticeable thing is they feel quite tight to get on but that is i guess how you find issue actually fitting one cr wearing it. they do fit well and they feel like they have got gel underneath them. the only issue is that at the moment they are available injust is that at the moment they are available in just this is that at the moment they are available injust this brand of shoes so they start at $795, not exactly a solution for everyone. i not exactly a solution for everyone-— not exactly a solution for eve one. i. ., _, everyone. i tell you who could afford them — everyone. i tell you who could afford them is _ everyone. i tell you who could afford them is the _ everyone. i tell you who could afford them is the start i everyone. i tell you who could afford them is the start of- everyone. i tell you who could afford them is the start of our| afford them is the start of our next story, because it is the oscars this weekend and 13 years after the original avatar movie cleaned up at the awards, the sequel is finally here. avatar: the way of water is up forfour avatar: the way of water is up for four oscars including avatar: the way of water is up forfour oscars including best visual effects. so it is time for us to meet the team behind
