you're live with bbc news... now it's time for a look at today's sport. it's a big day in the battle to avoid relegation from the premier league with four of the bottom five teams in action. in the late game, nottingham forest — 18th(gfx)at the minute — — 18th at the minute — host bottom side southampton. before that, everton,— with just four points from their last seven travel to brighton whilst in just under 15 minutes, leicester city will aim to pull clear of the drop zone away to fulham. we have four games left, where again we believe we can take points from all four of them but we have to make sure our defensive performances better than it was against everton. i believe there is goals in the team and there is quality and the team to produce their moments, but it has been a long time since we got a
2:46 pm
clean sheet and it is about time we got one of them as well. whilst attention is on the battle to avoid the drop, brighton are still very much in the mix for european football. they're seventh but have three games in hand over spurs and liverpool above them, whilst champions league qualification is still a distinct possibility for roberto di zerbi's men although the brighton boss maybe isn't looking that high up. we wa nt we want to achieve our target and i think it is clear for everybody, we are fighting against a big team, tottenham hotspur, aston villa, liverpool, for the euro. and at the moment, i think we are deserving to reach the best position. lewis hamilton may have endured a challenging season so far, but the seven—time f1 world champion has some optimism after coming through the field to finish 6th at the miami grand prix. after enduring a difficult season so far, lewis hamilton has some optimism after driving through the field to finish 6th at the miami grand prix. starting 13th, hamilton picked off drivers through the race to split

the ferraris of carlos sainz and charles leclerc. he was still way behind championship leader max verstappen in his red bull but the mercedes driver is hopeful an impending update for the next race in italy will improve a car, described by his boss as �*a nasty piece of work'. i have been counting down the days for it. i will find out this week what we are expecting and what kind of trajectory that puts us on but i am really hoping it helps us take a step forward and i think it'll be interesting to see kind of where we are with the lay of the land. but i am excited. once again, james harden was the key man for philidelphia as the 76ers held off a fightback from the boston celtic�*s to level their nba playoff a 2 apiece. harden drained 42 points in total — including the score to send the game into overtime and then a clutch three pointer with 18 seconds of overtime remaining. it sealed a 116 to 115 win. it's level between denver nuggets and phoenix too — after the suns won 129 to 124. nikola jokic scored a career best 53 points but his contribution may be best remember for ripping the ball out of the hands of suns

2:49 pm
police to split the teams up. six players in total were sent off. plenty more on the bbc sport website and app. we'll have another update in about a0 minutes' time. fans from all over the world are travelling to liverpool to attend the shows, providing a much welcome boost to the local economy. as hannah miller reports. # well, shake it up baby, now # twist and shout.# liverpool doing what liverpool does best. entertainment already spilling out onto the streets in a city
2:50 pm
that's always up for a party. the karaoke has popped up out of thisjewellers, where inside, they're working on musically—themed jewellery. that's a guitar? that's a guitar, yeah. it's a treble clef. we've got some cufflinks in the shape of a guitar, which, you know, we hope to do really well throughout the eurovision. i think it's a huge opportunity. obviously we've got thousands of people coming to liverpool. we can showcase what liverpool is about. does it feel like it has already lifted people's spirits? oh, yeah, definitely, yeah. hi, i'm wondering if you have any jobs available for eurovision? and people likejoel are seeking out ways to get involved. if you can send your cv today to this e—mail address, - and put your subject heading 'eurovision'... _ at these pop—up shops trying to recruit people to work in hotels, attractions, logistics, to name but a few, there is hope that even the temporaryjobs created by eurovision could be life changing for some.
2:51 pm
people might try something that maybe they have not tried before. it could be a career change for them. it could be starting out on the career pathway as a student or whatever else. and actually, we might then be able to move them into work after eurovision. so our strapline has been, eurovision and beyond. eurovision is the springboard. it's attracted people, and numbers, that we would not at this restaurant they are creating a special ukrainian—inspired menu using local ingredients. how many of these are you expecting to do? well, i think because we've got probably over 100,000 extra visitors coming to liverpool in the next two weeks, and we've put these dishes on both menus, so i think we're probably going to be quite a few! i hope we are anyway. how much is this needed right now? i know for a fact that it's given people hope, and made them continue to do business rather than potentially close the doors and just hang up their clogs, or hang up their keys, or whatever.
2:52 pm
i don't think this could have come at a better time. and many businesses hope the legacy lasts well beyond this week, a showcase for a city embracing its moment to shine. hannah millar, bbc news, liverpool. two bbcjournalists, kate vandy and anna holligan, have transformed an electric cargo bicycle into a mobile office and studio. it's called the bike bureau, and enables them to do solo—operated, and solar powered, live reports across tv, digital and radio platforms. the aim is to elevate our mobile journalism from the field, and help the bbc on itsjourney to reach net zero. let's get more now from anna holligan. welcome to the hague. this has been a passion project for years. it is kind of like the swiss army knife of mobile broadcasting. already using a cargo bike has been a game changer for me, taking me to the heart breaking news, depositing my

2:57 pm
northern ireland into northern england by the end of the night and running across scotland. a very mild night with temperatures in double figures and plenty of cloud around. some rain across england first thing on tuesday in the east that will pull away to allow sunshine through the morning but looking closely and you can see the shower starting to dot about as we get to the middle part of the day and threw into the afternoon where the sunshine injects more warmth into the atmosphere and more warmth into the atmosphere and more energy and those showers are going to turn pretty punchy. the temperature is 70 degrees and the best of the sunshine. —— 17 degrees. this area of pressure will produce bans of showers in the coming days. some areas could see temperatures turning more relentless. 0n turning more relentless. on wednesday, a definite focus early on of showers towards the north and west of the uk but again it is where the sunshine comes out that things
2:58 pm
start to live in a padded looks like we will see heavy showers just about anywhere. a shade cooler through the middle part of the week. thursday, very much the same with low pressure sitting across the uk. we will start the day i think on a pretty quiet and bright and sunny note but come the afternoon, we will see heavy showers around on thursday. further on into friday, it does start to extend with a ridge of high pressure across the uk, giving us a quieter start to the week. going into next weekend, it should be quieter and a little cooler.
3:00 pm
live from london. this is bbc news. millions of people across the uk are taking part in community events — to mark the final day of king charles' coronation. but there's been controversy too. london's metropolitan police faces growing criticism over its detention of dozens of anti—monarchy protesters. sudan's warring military factions are holding talks that many hope will bring about a ceasefire to allow aid in. and officials in ukraine say at least three civilians have been killed — and more than 1a injured — in the latest wave of russian missile and drone attacks.
