5:13 am
commonwealth people throughout his travels and also in the uk when they have come over there. he will be a very —— bring very intuitive knowledge to that role. and ijust think, no, we are in a very safe pair of hands. obviously globally we are very challenged all the time. from new zealand's perspective, i don't see any significant changes taking place. we are very pro— commonwealth here. we see the value to the merits of the commonwealth, particularly when it is linked into our pacific neighbours and also to the asian region. but we have perhaps an understated loyalty towards the king and to our royal family. we don't necessarily demonstrated perhaps in the same ways as others might do, but nevertheless it is there and for those that understand the significance of the commonwealth, i see the future is a very bright one.— is a very bright one. darryl stevens —

5:15 am
because the zaporizhzhia plant was captured one year ago and when i see this, i see all the signals have been there and ukraine's western partners have failed to take it as seriously as they should, so for example, let the iaea there but not given them proper support. i'm surprised that there is not this correct understanding that when we say russian occupying forces, they are, in fact, russian terrorist forces and they are using this as a terrorist base, they are using it to shell across the dnipro river to marry other cities, knowing that ukrainian forces will not fire back because the danger of the nuclear power plant and you talk about increased shelling by both sides, that's in the entire battlefront. it is one—sided and we are talking about the
5:16 am
area around enerhodar and the zaporizhzhia power plant. also, we've seen ukrainian nuclear power plant workers have been abused, horrendously, because the russian terrorists who occupy this plant are interested more in scoring propaganda points and getting it under the control of ross atom, their nuclear facility, and they are in operating it safely so when we talk about the evacuation of ukrainians, we are talking about a forced deportation, that's the correct anguished microphone language, and when it comes to the city besides the zaporizhzhia power plant, these are the workers —— rosatom. there are no replacements for them. they are not competent technicians coming from the side of the russian terrorists to operate this plant. russian terrorists to operate this plant-— russian terrorists to operate this lant. ,, ,, �* ., this plant. crosstalk. one of the concerns _ this plant. crosstalk. one of the concerns about _ this plant. crosstalk. one of the concerns about this is - this plant. crosstalk. one of the concerns about this is notl the concerns about this is not just it is a power plant but it is a nuclear power plant. can

aerobatics display team of the royal air force. the royal family and crowds of onlookers looked to the skies for an aerial display fit for a king but this is what it looks like from inside the cockpit. the red arrows releasing this first person view shortly after the spectacle itself. what you're seeing here is the moment the royal air force pilots swooped in formation above the streets of what was a rather drizzly, damp london. the original performance featured more than 60 aircraft but it had to be scaled back due to be rainy weather, unfortunately. really, quite an impressive sight for everyone there on the ground watching events as they took place. as we move on, the opening ceremony of the eurovision song contest takes place on sunday afternoon in liverpool. the uk is hosting the event on behalf of feisty�*s winners ukraine and there are lots of events planned to link the countries, including a simultaneous rave with key. two
5:26 am
semifinals there on thursday and saturday, and the final is expect to be watched by millions around the world. that's it from us. goodbye for now. hello there. it's a shame we had so much rain around on saturday but things are looking up for sunday. it's going to be the best day of the coronation weekend. it's going to be drier and warmer — could be the warmest day of the year so far — but by the time we get in to monday, we're back into cloud and some wet weather, too. and this is the cloud that's going to bring the rain, actually, in from the atlantic on monday, but in between two weather systems for sunday, hence that drier theme, in between this band of wet weather coming in from the atlantic and the wet weather that we had earlier moving out to the north sea, so dry, i think, by the time we get to sunday morning. temperatures 9—11 degrees. it could be quite cloudy, a bit of mist and fog around, too, but the sunshine will get to work on that — some lengthy spells of sunshine developing.
5:27 am
towards the end of the morning, maybe the odd shower, though, breaking out across scotland, drifting in to some eastern parts of england. further west, we're likely to stay dry, and many places will have a dry day with some sunshine. it'ill be warmer as well — 19 degrees in glasgow and 18 in belfast. the top temperature around 21 in the south east of england. and it should be dry at windsor for the concert in the evening. northern ireland in the evening, though, the breeze will be picking up. that's going to blow in cloud and this rain and overnight on sunday night, that wetter weather pushes its way further east. it'll keep western parts of the uk very mild. a little cooler out towards the east. and on bank holiday monday, the morning could be dry — for a while, at least — and bright across east anglia and the south—east before that rain, heavy at times, pushes its way eastwards across england and wales. maybe a clearance following that rain across scotland and northern ireland with sunshine but some showers — those could be heavy and thundery — and temperatures are going to be a bit lower on bank holiday monday, typically around 16 degrees. now, once those tangle of weather fronts sweep away overnight, we're going to be dominated by that area of low pressure in the atlantic
5:28 am
for tuesday. around the base of that area of low pressure, we'll find a stronger wind, and that'll bring in some showers. there'll be some sunshine on tuesday as well, particularly in the morning, but more showers arriving as we head into the afternoon. some of those maybe be heavy and thundery once again. and so, we've got temperatures around 16—18 degrees. it's going to be quite mixed, really, for much of the week ahead with some sunshine and some showers. looks like it should be drier towards the end of next week, but not particularly warm.
