an homage to karl lagerfeld's much beloved cat choupette. it wasn'tjust gerard leto who went full feline. it took nine hours for lil nas x to turn into a sparkly cat covered in pearls and crystals, and rapper doja cat transformed herself with a prosthetic nose. i want to have fun, this is my first gala, so i wanted to do it big. it was hardly a first for rhianna whose extravagant looks have become a staple of this event. she arrived fashionably late in a floral cape that highlighted her baby bump, another met gala in the books and once again rhianna stole the show. nada tawfik, bbc news, at the met gala. our own fashion icon is here with the weather now. if i had known i would have won something more extravagant than just pastel colours.

the weather is pretty overcast for some of us, but there have been lengthy spells of sunshine in the south—west of the uk. high pressure is in charge and you would think it would give us sunnier skies, but here is the extent of the cloud across most of the uk. what we have got right now is more or less or you will have four most of the afternoon. still a few glimmers of brightness possible in one or two locations, but on the whole it is on the cloudy site. how about the temperatures? quite a spread on the north sea coast from newcastle to aberdeen, but out towards the west 17, even 18 degrees in northern ireland. this evening and overnight not much changes. broadly speaking the southern half of the country has plenty of clear spells. the northern half has cloudy skies. around east anglia and parts of scotland it will

be quite chilly in the morning, but out towards the west should be relatively mild. here is the forecast for tomorrow. in northern parts of the uk, certainly in scotland, cloud and outbreaks of rain in the western isles and highlands, but for many of us it will be a somewhat brighter day, especially southern areas. on the north sea coast around newcastle around 15 degrees, so it feel a touch warmer tomorrow. we are going touch warmer tomorrow. we are going to look at thursday first. we see whether france moving in from the south—west and this is the beginning of a spell of more unsettled weather. we are edging towards the weekend and you know what i am starting to imply. the weather goes downhill across the south—west, still decent temperatures, around 18 degrees or so. now i am skipping to the weekend because we have got a lot going on. here it is, saturday. one low pressure sweeps in, lots of blue, you know what that means,

showers dotted around. not one coherent band of rain, but very hit and miss through the weekend. we will call it a chance of showers across many parts of the country with the risk of downpours. yes, sunny spells, but it will be relatively mild. i know there are a lot of dark clouds here and it looks as if it is running all the way through, it is not. these are often showers and the outlook will chop and change when you look at your phone over the coming days. that's all from the bbc news at one, so it's goodbye from me, and on bbc one we nowjoin the bbc�*s news teams where you are. hello, i'm gavin ramjaun, with the latest from the bbc sport centre. coming up on the programme: leeds united is in the spotlight as javi garcia could be on the way out,

replaced by a familiar primary name. "it's not over", according to mikel arteta, whose side look to get their title ambitions back on track against chelsea big plans for the first belgian world snooker champion, luca brecel reflects on his stunning tournament after beating mark selby. hello and thanks forjoining us. leeds are set to sack managerjavi garcia as pressure mounts on the club in the battle to avoid relegation. they are hoping to replace him with sam allardyce, who will have four games to see them clear of relegation. director of football victor author has also left the club. leeds are currently in 17th position. leeds united lost 4—1

to bournemouth at the weekend. arsenal boss mikel arteta says the title race is still on, despite his side falling from top spot in the premier league after manchester city jumped above them this weekend. arsenal take on chelsea this evening. the blues have lost all five under interim manager frank lampard. it's a match arteta isn't taking lightly. because we have achieved what was difficult to achieve, and we can still achieve the premier league because there are still five games to go and there are a lot of things to go and there are a lot of things to happen. we have to forget about what happened last week, learn from it and move on to next week. london derby. it and move on to next week. london derb . , ., derby. things right. if you look at histo of derby. things right. if you look at history of all— derby. things right. if you look at history of all the _ derby. things right. if you look at history of all the top _ derby. things right. if you look at history of all the top clubs - derby. things right. if you look at history of all the top clubs in - derby. things right. if you look at history of all the top clubs in the | history of all the top clubs in the league. — history of all the top clubs in the league. of— history of all the top clubs in the league, of moments of tough periods, our opponents tomorrow are a good example — our opponents tomorrow are a good example of— our opponents tomorrow are a good example of that. they are

these revenues and they should help us because otherwise simply not sell these rights of these undervalued prices to them. snooker�*s new world champion luca brecel says the sport in europe is "going to explode" after becoming just the fourth non—british winner in its 96—year history, and the first from mainland europe. brecel, who's from belgium, was in tears after holding off a mark selby fightback to win 18—15 he told the bbc�*s jamie broughton that he never expected the title. it has been such a tough two weeks, it has been so long and so stressful, all of those games. i could have lost so many times in this tournament and somehow i was still in it. all of a sudden i had a chance to win it, i never expected it, obviously coming here. iwas just expecting to win one game, for a change! just just expecting to win one game, for a chance! , . just expecting to win one game, for achanae! , ., . , a change! just an incredible feelina. a change! just an incredible feeling. when _ a change! just an incredible feeling. when you - a change! just an incredible feeling. when you got - a change! just an incredible feeling. when you got your| a change! just an incredible - feeling. when you got your hands on

gradually climbing towards safely, then this horrible series of results, 23 goals conceded in april alone. half—time at crystal palace, they conceded another four. since thenit they conceded another four. since then it has spiralled out of control. fans have turned on victor auto, but also turning on the head coach himself, believing he was unable to turn it around. it started off well, but as god had this whole season has felt, spiralling down towards the championship. 5am towards the championship. sam allard ce towards the championship. sam allardyce said _ towards the championship. sam allardyce said to _ towards the championship. sam allardyce said to be _ towards the championship. sam allardyce said to be lined up to take charge of leeds united. what did they expect from him? he has been such a fixture over the years gone by. what are hoping he can bring to the club?— gone by. what are hoping he can bring to the club? they only think the can bring to the club? they only think they can hope _ bring to the club? they only think they can hope for _ bring to the club? they only think they can hope for is _ bring to the club? they only think they can hope for is survival. - bring to the club? they only think they can hope for is survival. it i they can hope for is survival. it will not be a long—term appointment. the plan to develop barcelo by elsa

did not include bringing along in the tooth manager and at this stage. the fans are unhappy with the way the is being managed at the moment. the best they can hope for is survival and to ignite a squad that is on his knees at the moment, after just one point in five games. you can't expect any mad tactical plan to be put into position, it isjust about fire and brimstone, whether that can do enough to get the site over the line. they are outside of the drop zone on goal difference alone, but with manchester city away, not many would take on this role, and the other game newcastle away. sam allardyce has dealt with difficult fan bases who are upset and squats on their knees before, he probably feels he has a reputation that will not change regardless of how well he does or doesn't do over

these next four games. if he is appointed, it isjust these next four games. if he is appointed, it is just a these next four games. if he is appointed, it isjust a case these next four games. if he is appointed, it is just a case of a four game —— to the line. if he does it, it is nothing short of a footballing miracle. you can get all the latest sports news at from the bbc sport app, orfrom our website — that's bbc.co.uk/sport. from me and the rest of the team at the bbc sport centre, goodbye. lucy letby, the nurse accused of murdering seven babies and trying to kill ten others, has been giving evidence for the first time in her trial. she cried in the witness box and told the jury she only wanted to help and care for the babies she was looking after at the countess of chester hospital.
