for centuries, potters in staffordshire have been making ceramics for royal events — and with just a month to go until the king's coronation, they are getting ready to mark the event in style. they certainly are. from tankards and trinket boxes, to commemorative mugs and even gifts fit for a king, the region has been producing some of the most magnificent souvenirs. it appears roger has quite a few of them! our reporter liz copper has more. the company was started by my father, we have been in business for 75 years nearly. we mainly produce china because china plates, commemorative ware for celebrations. it's a special occasion and it's an honour and a privilege to do something for the coronation and for the king. and it is a souvenir, something to keep forever, really. i'm john french, i've been a ceramic craftsman for nearly 40 years. - i decided to make for the coronation a piece that incorporates _ all the skills i've usedl over the last 40 years.

the picture here that i've actually painted on, - this is actually the welsh guard - uniform, i thought it would be quite good to get the transition from him being the prince of wales to now. becoming the monarch. it's a part of history. i think that's the thing - about ceramics, it marks those special occasions in history, so it's a great chance for us| to produce these beautiful pieces. we are in middleport pottery. we are the last transfer printers in the world. and in 2010, one of his majesty the king's charities stepped in to preserve, regenerate this building, using millions of pounds of funds that were gathered, so the king really did save this pottery back then and it's so important to us, and that's why we are so grateful. for the coronation we are producing a book which is going to be a gift to give to the king himself. that book is a transferrers

decorator�*s book, a bit like a pattern book which our decorators would have in the factory over there. each one tells a story of our unique historic patterns, where to cut them and where to place them, and it acts as a bit of a guide for them. we have been making coronation designs since 1902, with the very first piece dating back to king edward vii, king charles's great—great—grandfather. the pieces go through to 1937 to the coronation that never was for king edward viii. and then in more contemporary times, under the design stewardship of walter moorcroft, to 1953 with the coronation of queen elizabeth ii. we use a technique called tube lining. i everything's made by hand. each piece takes at least a week to make from start to finish. - it's an honour, every piece of moorcroft that i work i with and the people we work with, i it's an honour, but for the king, i i mean, that is an amazing. achievement and something i will remember for the rest

of my life, really. _ that was a report by liz copper. it was. that was very tasteful coronation _ it was. that was very tasteful coronation merchandise - it was. that was very tasteful coronation merchandise but. it was. that was very tastefull coronation merchandise but it it was. that was very tasteful- coronation merchandise but it won't all be _ coronation merchandise but it won't all be as— coronation merchandise but it won't all be as tasteful, _ coronation merchandise but it won't all be as tasteful, will— coronation merchandise but it won't all be as tasteful, will it? _ all be as tasteful, will it? do you _ all be as tasteful, will it? do you not? _ all be as tasteful, will it? do you not? my- all be as tasteful, will it? do you not? my great - all be as tasteful, will it? i do you not? my great aunt all be as tasteful, will it? - do you not? my great aunt and my grandma used to keep loads of that stuff, growing up in stoke, they had lived in stoke born and bred, they kept it in a glass display case. i am laughing but i have to say i was out filming before bbc breakfast and was doing a case about volunteers involved in the coronation and went into an age uk charity shop and there was a beautiful coronation glass beaker on the shelf. there it is. from 1953? from 1953? from 1953, i snapped it up, a bargain at £9 99 p. didn't you tell them to keep the penny? idid! all of penny? i did! all of this stuff is still around and it's a lovely piece. there is something nice about owning something that dates back to 1953.

in the stuff that is made now will be valuable in years to come. welcome indeed! some of it. it is quite interesting, that's a whole other debate. let's move on to the sport. i was going to set the claretjug the open. the green jacket. not the green jacket those guys are wearing their because that is how damp it has been augusta national. we are we a re halfway we are halfway through but much of the third round has still to be completed by the final pack. the third round gets under way at 1:30pm uk time and 5:30pm uk time, so about ten hours of golf for golf fans to watch. they will love it! those that don't live golf but live with a golf fans have my sympathies. it's going to be a marathon of golf that we have to look forward to. bad weather again shortened play on saturday with the leaders through just the first six holes of their third round.

this is brooks koepka, the american, four—time major champion, yet to win the masters, leading by four shots from the jon the masters, leading by four shots from thejon rahm, jon rahm playing on the pga tour and brooks koepka on the liv golf series, so rival is already there. brooks koepka on 13 under but you could see the siren being blown, that was enough of that. the greens were becoming impossible to putt on. england's matt fitzpatrick made good progress when play was possible. really impressive from the current us open champion is tied fourth on five under par, still eight off the leader. fred couples is the oldest man to make the cut at the masters. the man who won it back in 1992 is 63 and is still outplaying those much younger. also still there but not in contention is tiger woods, who just made the cut. he is at the bottom of the leader

board but will be happy to have made the weekend. he might not be happy with that particular shot! he's nine over with a round and a half to play today if he can. can he do it with a round and a half to play? we will see. three more wins should be enough for celtic to secure another scottish premiership title. they are 12 points clear of second placed rangers after beating them 3—2 in the old firm derby. kyogo furuhashi scoring twice in a 3—2 victory at celtic park. seven games to go and a vastly superior goal difference, the title should be celctic�*s again. have you got a trophy with you, no, no? well, probably suggests it's not done. look, i get it, look, we're in a great position. but i keep saying, why waste a game of football? you know, we've still got, what — seven or eight to go? seven, i think, to go in the league. we've got the cup semi—final. some opportunities to produce some magic and win some games of football. i'm not going to let anyone

dismiss any of these games. the governing body for equestrian sport in the uk has vowed to rid the sport of discrimination. it follows a damning report highlighting issues with bullying and bias around class and race creating a lack of diversity throughout the disciplines. so, what is next for the sport? rebecca wood has been to meet some of the people working to break down barriers really good, rupert, really good! event rider lydia heywood has big ambitions. already competing on the british eventing circuit, she hopes one day she'll be riding at the olympics. it was a dream for me when i was younger to represent jamaica, and here i am today, you know, fulfilling that dream. so i want to make it possible for the next generation, too. to do that, three years ago with the support of her mum she launched her own foundation, cool ridings. through it, members come together for experience days like here at the royal agricultural university, to learn from one another and industry experts.

i was lonely in the sport for quite a while. that's not the case anymore. i'm not the first black rider. there are riders that have fallen out of love with the sport. so by creating a community like this and having the support systems, we can ensure they continue progressing and inspiring the next generation. schemes like this are driving change in the sport. but research from its governing body, british equestrian, shows more needs to be done. |i've had a few people say that i've| inspired them to think about doing it more seriously. and i'm absolutely so honoured to be in a position where i can be that. - it's one of those things, the research had to be done. yes, it's taken a long time. but the steps are being done. so i can only focus on the positives, rather than the negatives. and i just want to be able to go to a show, and just be included. what are you doing to make it better, make it more inclusive for young people? that's what it's about, it's about love in our community, and that's how

we're going to excel. 11 recommendations have been made to diversify equestrianism. they include making it more accessible and affordable. but those already offering that say it is not easy. it's another world, to get into it. that's why we put it right on people's doorsteps here, to make it really affordable and subsidise it and get it started. at st james city farm in gloucester, hundreds of people have applied for riding lessons. imran loves horses and loves introducing others to his sport. he's hoping this report will bring positive changes. it's a two—way relationship, itjust needs to be expanded. the urban riding schools, like ourselves, of which there is only four in the country, they need support. because it's really, really hard, logistically, to keep horses in the middle of the city, without proper grazing and everything. so they need support to be able to do that. british equestrian say the research will help them to make meaningful, systemic change. lydia and imran will be watching closely. rebecca wood, bbc news.

just to mention today as well, not just about the golf which is what we started talking about, but the football as well come in the premier league title race arsenal go to anfield, not a place they have a particularly good record, but if they beat liverpool they can re—establish an eight—point lead. i think a lot of people still feel manchester city might get back in and clinch the title as they so want to do. we will wait and see. it would be a huge, i'm going to say statement, if arsenal can get the win at liverpool. liverpool have been struggling this season. as you walk out that way be careful there is a ten kilograms rabbit that way. i'm only a warm up act for a giant bunny. i think we have all felt like that this morning! thank you. before the giant rabbit... the much anticipated tv series great expectations starring olivia colman continues on bbc one tonight. the novel itself is set in kent and london, but some of the scenes

tom, how are you? i'm in shrewsbury. yeah, great expectations. what do you mean you weren't here? oh, ok. you know, we really must do coffee. ben sidwell, bbc news. do you think that was really tom hardy phoning him? no. i interviewed tom hardy, i tracked him down, he was very intense. really? yes, he was. shall we look at the weather and see what it is like on easter sunday. you have a few photographs from devon, people up bright and early. out to the west is where we have the best of the sunshine and it is a good day to be working. it is a bank holiday long weekend and the weather has behaved itself so far but, if we look a little bit further west into

northern ireland, yes, in ballymena we have got some cloud and this is probably the best of the weather today because rain is on its way. it is this area of cloud here that is arriving towards the latter stages of the morning and afternoon giving outbreaks of rain. ahead of it, the winds will just start to strengthen so if we have got wispy high cloud at the moment hopefully that will start to break it up and there will be more sunshine coming through and because ones are coming from a southerly direction, a warm sauce at this time of year, we should see those temperatures climb. if we get about 17.8 degrees it will be the warmest day of the year, can you believe it? easter sunday and it is going to be one. it is a of making the most of it. it won't last. a few are a hay fever sufferer pollen is high across england and wales at the moment. here is the rain, then, moving out of northern ireland pushing into scotland on the night. a blanket of cloud. temperatures are going to hold up into double digits

through the night but unfortunately, then we will see a wet start to easter monday. so all change for the final day of the long easter weekend. the cloud and the rain easing from eastern england but then plenty of scattered showers tucking in behind. some of the showers really could be quite heavy and widespread, maybe even the odd rumble of thunder. heights of 15 degrees but in those showers it is going to be a little bit of a fresher feel. going to be a little bit of a fresherfeel. 13 going to be a little bit of a fresher feel. 13 celsius at the very best. even in scotland we are looking at 9—12 and some of the showers are really frequent. now, that low tax away. another one moves through tuesday and wednesday. the winds stay fairly frequent, is quite strong through the middle part of the week before another low tax and so basically, what i am trying to say is it is all downhill, really, from today onwards. sunny spells, scattered showers, strong winds. the

reason i am saying it is downhill is because a few want to keep the kids in the garden they might need their wellies. thanks, louise. roger, you may like you're studying teen staying inside but for those of us with young children, i want them out. fair enough. we are approaching nine o'clock. we've had lots of you getting in touch with your theatre horror stories. a couple of people would not stop singing andjoining in. it a couple of people would not stop singing and joining in. it is fair to say you have had experience of this. barbara said i will not go to the theatre again. my past experiences have been less than perfect. the person next to me sang the whole way through. and the same with the jersey the whole way through. and the same with thejersey boys and i had paid over £100 each time. that is the thing, it is expensive going to the theatre. daddy says he has noticed a

marked deterioration in behaviour at theatres. at a performance of anything goes, the couple were singing so loudly that a fight almost out so they took the name of the show literally. i went to see my fair lady and the staff were amazing. the lady next to me insisted on checking her phone, a lot of you pointing out it is putting a lot of pressure on theatre staff to have to deal with these and wanted audience members. paul has been to the rocky horror show and makes that point however, and other places pantomime, of course. one of last year's christmas productions is only now, at easter, coming to the end of its run. a leading shakespearean actor — with a string of big film credits. and a stand—up comedian used to playing arena tours. i caught up with mother

goose and her husband — sir ian mckellen and john bishop — and asked how their marriage is going? we're doing ok, i think. is that what you think? i think so, that's what the council has said to me. we have our downs, but on the whole we're madly in love with each other. we're the sort of morecambe and wise of the 21st century, and here we are doing pantomime at easter. i know, that seems. crazy, isn't it? but not as far as the audiences are concerned. we are like the ant and deck for the older generation because it's not a unit you'd think would work but itjust does work, doesn't it? you're the biggest name i've ever worked with. the performers i've admired the most are the ones i've known for longest, professional performers, stand—up comics. i used to sit in the backstage on the grand theatre. my dad knew the manager of the theatre and i was allowed when i was 14 to go and stand in the wings. i can remember before they were going on saying to the stage manager, "what's the name of the local mayor?

"what is the name of the biggest shop in town? " 0 then they could make jokes about them. so to actually be working with a stand—up as brilliant as this man is a treat. how did this union come about, john? his idea, ian wanted to do a pantomime and it was suggested to me that he wanted somebody else to play opposite. i said i want him to be tall and handsome and younger than me. there you go. with good teeth. the teeth defining thing, really. laughs. alan carr was busy. you know what, i was invited to lunch to have a chat with ian and the writer and the director, you aren't going to go have lunch at ian's house and walk away and say, "nah, i've got something better to do than that." laughs. it has been a greatjourney.

have you met before? we met on a couple of chat shows, and in fact you may not recall this... i know, ijust found it. i was looking. when paul died. a dear friend of yours. i was looking through some stuff we had done together. i found a show i had been on. there were shadow figures sitting next to me and there wasjohn! it was. 2014, that was the first time we ever met on paul's show. crosstalk. so are you! laughs. listen, the affection and mutual respect is obvious and it is lovely to speak to you both, thank you very much indeed, sir ian mckellen, john bishop. they play their last night tonight before going to bristol for wednesday through sunday later this week and then that is it for mother goose. looks a good fun.

now, easter wouldn't be easter without a bunny on the sofa? during lockdown, they became a popular pet, but many are being we're joined now by rae walters from the rabbit welfare association and fund and leigh skipp who is a rabbit breeder and owner ofjed the giant rabbit. he looks like he is about to take a run for it. he is not fully grown, yet, is he? in the mac no. is ten kilos now. yet the maquis is 90 those at the moment but he should get around ten so here's a year at the moment. there is kind of a serious reason why we asked even today because obviously, people talk about easter and easter bunnies but there a lot of rabbits around now because of rock lockdown. rabbits
