6:02 am
known as the queen of rock'n'roll, she survived poverty, domestic abuse and career setbacks before becoming one of the world's biggest stars. our arts correspondent david sillito looks back at her life. # when you were a young boy # did you have a puppy # that always followed you around... # 1966 — river deep, mountain high. in yourface, hip shaking, sweat drenched, passionate pop perfection. # and do i love you # my, oh, my # river deep, mountain high...# however, in america, the song was a flop. it would be another 17 years before tina turner truly made it. # baby. # # now, ike turner, i'm all you need # so darling... # anna mae bullock grew up in nutbush, tennessee. her family were sharecroppers. she started singing in ike turner's band when she was a teenager.
6:03 am
# nutbush city limits... # and poor, largely abandoned by her parents, it was, she hoped, her escape. but it was an escape into a different sort of misery. # rolling down the river... # there were hits and the world saw a confident, powerful woman on stage. # i'm the gypsy, the acid queen... # but the acid queen in tommy was, in private, fearful of her violent, controlling husband. finally, in 1976, she walked out. i did try to leave, and the first time was when i had the experience of being whipped with a wire hanger. and then another time was something else. and i realised, "well, you don't go back." # i'm your private dancer # a dancerfor money... #
6:04 am
what then followed was a rebirth. # let's stay together...# the team behind the band heaven 17 and the support of david bowie help to set her on her way to becoming one of the biggest selling acts in the world. # 0h, what's love got to do, got to do with it... # no wonder they turned her life story into a musical. and the tributes — among them mickjagger. she was, he says, "inspiring, warm, funny and generous. she helped me so much." she was an inspiration for artists such as beyonce. i'll never forget the first time i saw you perform. i had never in my life saw a woman so powerful. so fearless. so fabulous. and those legs! here performing in her honour in 2005. # rolling on the river... #
6:05 am
cheering and applause # you're simply the best # better than all the rest... # and in the year 2000, she was 60 years old and the biggest selling concert artist in the world. from annie mae bullock and the church choir of nutbush baptist church, to multi—platinum selling buddhist rock and roll superstar, living in switzerland... the extraordinary tina turner. a fall in how much we pay for our gas and electricity
6:06 am
is expected to be announced later, as the energy regulator 0fgem sets the next price cap for households in england, wales and scotland. analysts predict a typical household's annual bill will decrease by around £450. the announcement is expected in about an hour. with more details, here's our cost of living correspondent colletta smith. for nicole, energy bills are always on her mind. just a lot of things, even boiling my kettle. doing my washing, having the tv on even for an hour to watch a film. partner gaming, just things like that. with two girls at home, she's forever topping up her prepaid gas and electricity meters. a lot more, more regular than what i used to do. so i'd be like, why do i need to top up again? it feels like i've just done it. so yeah, i do notice i've done it a lot more. and then i was like, i could have done something else with that. could having taken kids to something more nicer, day out, just simple stuff.
6:07 am
energy prices have been so high that the government stepped in to lower unit prices, making a typical bill around £2,500 a year. but now, because gas and electricity prices have fallen, the price cap is going down from july. so the price we pay for energy is going down for the first time in a couple of years. paying just over £2,000 instead will make a difference. but if you're in credit with your direct debit payments, then it's worth getting in touch with your energy supplier to check if your monthly payments can be reduced because it might not happen automatically. understand your direct debit, understand your bills because people just don't understand the direct debits and we are seeing direct debits over inflated. so if you give meter readings and stay in control, you won't be paying more than you need to. today's announcement also means from july, shopping around for a better deal might be on the cards again. there are a handful of fixed
6:08 am
deals below the energy price cap at the moment, but make sure you do your sums before switching over. because if it's not more than 15% below what you're paying at the moment, then the likelihood is it won't save you money in the long run. no—one's getting carried away here. we've also now all lost that extra £66 support we'd been getting from the government each month. so although this is a price fall, we'll still be paying about the same as we were last winter without that extra help. was itjust a blip? you know, will it go back up again? but yet they're making billions and billions of pounds, aren't they? these people that are on these gas companies, they're making billions of pounds. and i don't know why they're getting away with it. because they know people are really struggling and yet they're making billions of pounds profits. coletta smith, bbc news, in barnsley. we'll be speaking to the boss of 0fgem at 7.30am.
6:09 am
we'll find out this morning how many migrants came to the uk last year and how many left. the official net migration figure, released by the office for national statistics, is expected to rise from 500,000 in 2021 to a record 700,000. our home editor mark easton has the story. so very carefully. so make sure that the packaging doesn't touch the sterile field. among the student nurses at the university of wolverhampton�*s campus in telford is titalupi, a nigerian who's paying full international fees to get her nursing qualifications. she's among 680,000 foreign students currently in britain, contributing £112 billion to the uk economy, but most also contributing to the net migration figure, the difference between those who come and those who leave. some people arejust doing it because, "0h, i have to leave the country, because i want a greater life, i want a greater opportunity for myself." and some people are genuinely doing it because they want it for that educational background
6:10 am
or they want to do something better for themselves. they want to achieve more goals. so worried is the government about the size of the net migration figure due to be published later this morning that they've announced plans to stop foreign postgraduates from using student visas as what they call a back door route to work. universities say that international students are a huge boost to the uk economy. universities say that international students are a huge boost to the uk economy. what we need to look at is the benefits that we have, the rich exchanges that we have and the contributions. we know as a country where we're missing people that we need. we haven't got those skills necessarily here. so having international students, dependents coming and supporting the contributions is huge for the university and huge for the local community. the migration figures published by the 0ns today will include up to 228,000 ukrainians who've been given visas after fleeing the war. another 130,000 visas have been issued to hong kong nationals fleeing political restrictions. with hundreds of thousands of international students and workers included the speculation is that the new net migration figure will be a record at around 700,000.
6:11 am
put the slide sheet in. there have been arguments within government over restricting international work visas for sectors like social care. many care homes report shortages and want to bring in more foreign staff. but the director of this care worker training facility in telford believes home grown workers can and should be found. there is not a single argument that i can see exists where you've got a local care provider bringing in 20 carers from india, for example, where two miles away we've got a classroom with 15 uk citizens working hard to break down all of their barriers to get a career. you're going to keep your hands on the bed and we're going to slide. that is the big question for the government. should britain endure shortages in areas like health care and hospitality while we wait for uk workers to come forward and get trained? or do we allow businesses to expand
6:12 am
using foreign workers boosting economic growth? today's figures are likely to inflame the arguments once again. mark easton, bbc news, telford. the governor of florida, ron desantis, has launched his bid to become the next us president. hejoins a growing list of candidates looking to challenge donald trump as the republican party nominee. the 44—year—old announced his plans on twitter but they didn't quite go to plan, as our north america correspondent nomia iqbal reports. decline is a choice. success is attainable. a big american flag, dramatic music and a warning only he can fix the problems. just what you would expect from a candidate aiming for the top job. ..and integrity to our institutions. i'm ron desantis and i'm running for president to lead our great american comeback. we have so many people here that i think we are melting the servers. but over on social media, spacex owner elon musk was unable to launch ron desantis
6:13 am
on his twitter spaces. he had better luck with his announcement on tv. i'm running to lead a great american comeback. technical glitches aside, ron desantis is the man who republicans see as donald trump without the trauma. who republicans see as donald trump without the drama. a conservative hero who delivers policies. florida is where woke goes to die. as governor here, he has expanded gun ownership laws, restricted sex and gender identity education in public schools, limited abortion access and waged a war with disney. ron desantis is hugely popular here but also very controversial. many people don't like him because of his hardline conservative policies. the question is, can he appeal to enough americans outside florida to win a national election? he has already been travelling across the country to drum up support.
6:14 am
however, the polls suggest he can't beat donald trump, who has nicknamed him de sinking ship. some supporters in miami say don't rule him out. ron desantis comes with a big war chest of money and a lot of hype. american history is littered with those who tried to be president. ron desantis mayjoin them or go the distance. nomia iqbal, bbc news, miami. you can find out more about us politics and the contest to be the next president, on the "americast" podcast on bbc sounds. patients are being urged to shop around on the nhs app and website to cut their waiting time for treatment in england. it systems have been updated to allow patients to view up to five providers filtered by distance, waiting times and quality of care. nhs providers, which represents hospitals, welcomed the move but said tackling staff shortages would make the biggest impact.
6:15 am
it is just it isjust coming up it is just coming up to it isjust coming up to 6:15am. maybe it is going to be another lovely day today, i'm seeing already you are on the thames, what ever it is, 615 am, it is busy. it is, it is the joy of rowing! this is the latest is —— the ladies masters rowing club here at marlow come on the banks of the thames, it's not unusualfor the banks of the thames, it's not unusual for them to be out of the morning, why would you not be when it is so calm? a little bit cloudy but barely a breath of wind. the rest of the uk is a similar picture. it is going to be a case, most places dry again, whether sunshine comes out it will feel quite warm. a little bit more cloud than compared to the last couple of days. not quite as much sunshine in
6:16 am
england and wales. not as much of a breeze in scotland compared with yesterday, ifew passing breeze in scotland compared with yesterday, i few passing showers, some sunny spells, a bit more cloud in northern ireland. yorkshire, the midlands and the south—west, south—east wales, we will see a bit more cloud and temperatures will be down a touch on yesterday. either side of that we could see temperatures in the high teens or low 20s in sunnier spots. this evening and overnight, the cloud sits in place across parts of england in particular. more cloud into the west of scotland bringing some drizzle into tomorrow morning. either side of it, clearer skies and a fresh start for friday morning. friday overall, england and wales will have more sunshine compared to today, it will feel a bit warmer. scotland and ireland a bit more cloud around and we will see some light rain and drizzle at times in the far north—west. starting to get a little bit warmer once again.
6:17 am
where we will get sunshine it will be strong with pollen levels rising especially across the southern half of the uk. the dry storyjust especially across the southern half of the uk. the dry story just about continues through the weekend. thank you, see you later on, matt. the family of laura nuttall, who died of brain cancer on monday, have been speaking of their pride in how she dealt with her illness. laura's mum nicola and her sister gracie say they're determined that her legacy of being positive, spreading joy, and raising awareness of brain tumours will go on. they've been speaking to rogerjohnson. we really appreciate all the support that we've had and all the comments and all the nice messages that we've had. and it's meant so much to know that laura has meant so much to other people. it's the people that say, i'm going to try and be more laura, i've booked a blood donation and there's been a few that have contacted... you gave blood on the day she died, didn't you? yeah, i did, i did. which was a bit weird, but it was on the calendar and she would have not been impressed if i'd have said
6:18 am
that was an excuse for not going. when i went, i did want to tell everybody, i wanted to stand on a table and go, "my daughter died this morning." we're going to just try and do what we can to make her proud of us and to carry on doing the things that she thought were important. it's seen how many people she's touched and how many people she's changed. yeah. and the girl that messages from school yesterday to say that when she was being bullied at school, laura always made a point of including her and being kind to her and years down the line, you know, she's neverforgotten how laura was with her and that... i would never have known that. and that was such a lovely thing to read. but my first instinct was to run upstairs to tell her about it. grace, you'vejust finished your university degree. laura finished hers a year ago. but she completed that start to finish whilst going through treatment. i mean, you must be in awe of that. she... she just makes everyone
6:19 am
look bad, honestly. it was really hard. she's incredible. but she was really determined. and she wanted to walk down her graduation hall and pick up that certificate. and that was an amazing day, wasn't it? it was the best day. honestly, she'sjust a force of nature. she's a force of nature. but what was she like as a big sister? 0h, this'll be good. she was an incredible big sister. she looked after me. she sorted my finances out. she was the first person to ever take me in a car and teach me to drive. there are some stories she'd hate me saying. she used to charge me 20p to play with her when i was about... she's always been very good with finances. she had her mind to money. yeah. and she charged me 20p an hour to play dolls with her. but when you went out and you weren't supposed to and you've been told you had to stay in and you fell over and cut your jeans. my knees were all grazed up so she put me in the bath. she cleaned my wounds, like never told mum and dad, like stuff like that. she loved you to bits, didn't she?
6:20 am
she's so proud of you. you've raised awareness about brain cancer by being so public about what your family has gone through for some years now. was that a very conscious decision? it was because laura became an ambassador for the brain tumour charity. that was the january after she was diagnosed in the october. and when we joined this community, we realised that although it's the biggest cancer killer of children and adults under 40, it only gets like 2% of cancer funding. and when you first find that out, when your child is one of those people, you just can't understand why other people don't know that and why that's not a scandal, because how are we ever going to improve things if that's the amount of research that's spent on it? so, laura, from being a really private person who had no social media, she was planning on an m15 type career, so she wanted to have no social media trace. there was a complete change because she was so conscious of the fact that this needed to be something people knew
6:21 am
about and people needed to know what the symptoms were so they were diagnosed more quickly. and she just took her whole campaigning role really seriously. and we were an extension of that. so things just snowballed really from that point onwards. and that desire to make a difference even continues now she's no longer here. just explain what she's doing. it does. well, laura knew that without research, we weren't ever going to improve things and people like us would be in this same position five and ten years down the line. so she wanted to donate her brain so it could be used for research. so that's going to be happening at the end of the week, and that's really hard for us because she's our little girl, but it's what she would have wanted. and if it can benefit other people in the long run, then that's her legacy, isn't it? yeah. she never cried about herself. the only time we ever saw her cry was when we lost another person with this disease. and that would break her heart. but she was never sorry for herself.
6:22 am
she actually said that some of the best times in her life had been since she was diagnosed and some of the experiences that she'd had, she would never have had without it. and she described it as peaks and troughs, didn't she? she's had such an impact on so many people. we don't want that to go with her, really. we want to continue that on her behalf. she wasn't ever angry, she wasn't ever sad, she never said, "why me?" she just said, "right, well, it is me. so let's make everyone know about it. let's make a difference. let's take this and turn it into something good." it is remarkable hearing nicola and greasy —— gracie speaking so soon after her death, i remember vividly sitting here and it was just about taking life and enjoying life in the message was very clear so thank you
6:23 am
so much to the family. what message was very clear so thank you so much to the family.— so much to the family. what an incredible _ so much to the family. what an incredible legacy. _ let's take a look at today's papers and there's only one story dominating the front pages this morning. "simply the best" is the mirror headline, saying tina turner sold 100 million records after rising to fame in the 1960s. the sun has a similar headline and says turner enjoyed an "astonishing career spanning six decades". the times features a piece on scammers after carrying out its own investigation to show that thousands of stolen bank details are being openly traded on social media. and one of the most—read articles on bbc news 0nline is about the benefits of plant—based diets on our health, after a study found vegetarian and vegan diets cut levels of cholesterol and fats in the blood that increase heart attacks. still to come on breakfast, how's this for a meeting of minds? write a song in the style of abba.
6:24 am

6:26 am
four will showcase the museum's world—leading work and its diverse histories. 0ne london artist is very excited to be a part of it. incredible to be actually in the centre of this new photography centre, to have people coming in and seeing this. i think making it more accessible, because the art world in the world of ai are both not hugely accessible, so to bring it into a space like this is a really exciting moment. let's take a look at the tubes now. if you are planning on using the underground, good news, because as you can see, all lines are currently running a good service. now onto the weather with elizabeth rizzini. good morning. high pressure will keep us dry and settled as we head through the rest of this week, the bank holiday weekend and indeed much of next week, too. but there will be subtle differences day on day in terms of cloud, sunshine and temperature. yesterday was beautiful, lots of sunshine around and plenty of blue sky but today
6:27 am
it is cloudier and cooler. we are starting with plenty of cloud and its been blowing in on the north—east wind, from the north sea, so it's cloudy, fairly mild and we will keep the cloud through the morning then it will start to break up into the afternoon. to leave us with lots of sunshine, potentially, by the time we get to the end of the day. temperatures lower than they were yesterday and there is still that noticeable north—easterly blowing. as we head through the evening and overnight with the clear skies it will feel chillier than last night. friday, a strengthening north—easterly wind and lots of blue sky and sunshine around again. temperatures a little lower than they were yesterday but they will start to recover over the course of the weekend. we will keep the sunshine on saturday, sunday possibly a little cloudier. that's it. head to our website to see how peckham rye station has regained some of its former splendor. we're back in half an hour. see you then.
6:28 am
hello, this is breakfast with tina daheley and charlie stayt. we're expecting a big drop in the cost of energy bills to be announced in around half an hour. hannah's in ipswich to tell us more. good morning, hannah, where are you? yes, this is the emmaus community cafe. they've been helping people to get support under warm space through the winter. we were last here in august when there was a real fear about what would happen to peoples energy bills in august. lots of people here this morning, good morning to you all, all waiting to find out what the energy price cap will be from july. this is the maximum amount that energy providers are allowed to charge for a typical household. you will pay more or less depending on the energy you use.
6:29 am
the price cap at the moment is just over £3200. but government support means that typical households are paying £2500. at 7am, we expect to hear the price cap will drop tojust over £2000 from july. definitely a reduction in what we expect, but only one that roughly makes up for the kind of £400 of support that has been available to everyone throughout the winter. since we last came to suffolk 18—month—old robin has taken herfirst steps, and her mum claire has been trying to keep the family bills under control. we first met in august when claire was already cutting back on her electricity use. i am terrified that when the winter comes we will not have enough for the bills. since then, energy prices have climbed up and are now on their way down. but it's not been all
6:30 am
smiles all the time. i really remember how worried you were when we last spoke. how was it in the end? i think things were a lot worse than what we expected them to be. obviously, there were subsidies for the oil, so we got the £300 towards the oil. it only covered a small percentage of the oil costs, but the electricity, the money they gave out there, did actually cover nearly half of the electricity bill so we weren't actually paying that extra. but now all those things have gone, we have no help. it's going to be a difficult winter for many, many people. this charity who hosted us in ipswich have seen a rise in people needing support. that's a word. forge. people like michael, who have been helped to get extra grants to cope.
6:31 am
how have you found this winter in terms of energy bills? my gas, because it was central heating was nearly £30 a week. what have you had to do in order to survive? cut down on what i'm buying and cut out most of the entertainment i have. how do you feel about if you effectively end up paying the same amount of money this coming winter as you have last winter? i won't be able to afford it. and despite the help that's been available the rising energy prices has made a mark on the lives of many people who live here, with many hoping the next few months will be brighter. let's see what many people here are expecting and hoping for. then, you are a small business owner and good morning to you and thanks for coming down. how big a concern are your energy bills?— down. how big a concern are your energy bills? very much so. for me ersonall energy bills? very much so. for me personally it's _ energy bills? very much so. for me personally it's all— energy bills? very much so. for me personally it's all about _ energy bills? very much so. for me personally it's all about trying - energy bills? very much so. for me personally it's all about trying to - personally it's all about trying to fix it if you can, and the worry is if you fix it, that is volatile

and also speaking to the head of of gm who set the rate, so if you have thoughts and you are concerned specifically, get in touch in the normal way and we will try to get some more detail on what it means. worth saying that the price cap is not the total amount you pay. it reflects an average household with average consumption and if you use more, you pay less, use less, you pay less. more, you pay less, use less, you -a less. �* , , more, you pay less, use less, you -a less. 3 , more, you pay less, use less, you -a less. , more, you pay less, use less, you -a less. 2, pay less. let's see. mike is on the sofa. pay less. let's see. mike is on the sofa- what — pay less. let's see. mike is on the sofa. what have _ pay less. let's see. mike is on the sofa. what have you _ pay less. let's see. mike is on the sofa. what have you got. - pay less. let's see. mike is on the sofa. what have you got. a - pay less. let's see. mike is on the sofa. what have you got. a story i pay less. let's see. mike is on the l sofa. what have you got. a story of ins - iration sofa. what have you got. a story of inspiration with _ sofa. what have you got. a story of inspiration with four _ sofa. what have you got. a story of inspiration with four clubs - sofa. what have you got. a story of inspiration with four clubs with - inspiration with four clubs with modest budgets and not the biggest stadiums but if they are well run like brighton, they can get into the top six which is what they have achieved and secure a place notjust in europe but the europa league, so the second—tier competition, for the first time in their history. something for brighton fans that they never thought they would see. what a night for brighton.
6:36 am
they'll be playing europa league football next season. it'll be the the first time an english club, has made their debut in european competition since hull city, did it back in 2014. this is after brighton held champions manchester city, to a one all draw at the amex stadium. brighton had gone behind, in the match, but they pulled level in truly spectacular fashion....just look at this from, 19 year old julio enciso.. city's erling haaland later had a goal ruled out and brighton held on for the draw to trigger great scenes down on the south coast. and these were the scenes in the brighton dressing room afterwards. there's the main man, the inspirtational manager roberto de zerbi joining in a bit of free from desire. what a season, what a model way to run a club. the future, i don't know, the policy of these players, i think they deserve to play in another level, but we have to be ready to bring another big players, because we will play four competitions, the europa league.
6:37 am
the premier league will be more tough and we have to be ready. aberdeen sealed third place in the scottish premiership last night. they beat st mirren 3—0 and it means they're guaranteed european group stage football of some sort next season. hearts needed to win at rangers to take the race for third into he final match of the season but they could only draw 2—2. substitute garang kuol scored a stoppage—time equaliser. hearts need to avoid defeat in their final match to earn fourth and a place in the europa conference league qualifiers. dundee united are on the brink of relegation following a 3—0 defeat at home to kilmarnock. they'll have to win their last game against motherwell, hope ross county lose and overturn a goal difference of minus eight to stay up. la liga president, javier tebas, has issued an apology to viniciuer following his comments made to the brazilian star on social media after the forward was racially absued at valencia's mestalla stadium on sunday.
6:38 am
despite the real madrid star's red card from that match being rescinded, an injury kept him out of their 2—1 win over rayo vallecano last night. prior to the game, both the supporters in the stadium and his real madrid team—mates paid tribute to the brazilian who joined them on the pitch before taking his seat alongside club president florentino perez. england manager gareth southgate is among many who have condemned the abuse directed at vinicius. it's a disgusting situation. i think it's so bad that, actually, it looks like it is going to force change. so, i'm hoping there will be something positive to come from it, because i think it has taken a central story, notjust in spain, but across europe and around the world and that can only help to affect change. he named his squad for the forthcoming qualifiers, and geraint

6:40 am
south—east wales at times, so will be warm with the grey skies but we will see the cloud break—up, especially around the coast and more sunshine to the east of scotland. northern ireland with more cloud when we saw yesterday but it's not as windy as it was during yesterday and one or two isolated showers for 0rkney and shetland. temperatures down on yesterday but still high teens and low 20s in some of the sunny spots. as we go into the evening and overnight we will see the cloud in parts of england in place and a bit more cloud in the north—west of scotland which will bring some drizzle but there will be clear skies, so a fresh start and the sky is clear into a sunny start to friday. as for friday, a lot more cloud in england and wales compared to today, so it will feel warmer and the north and west of scotland with more cloud, rain and drizzle and light and patchy and it will be a wet day and northern ireland with a bit more sunshine at times but here
6:41 am
is a fair bit of cloud. warm in the sunshine tomorrow and we could see highs of 22 or 23 and by and large the dry story continues into the weekend. back to you both. let's return now to our main story, which is the death of the legendary singer tina turner. and if you need any reminder ofjust how big a star she was — just look at the people lining up to heap praise on her. beyonce said she was grateful for "all the ways tina paved the way", calling her "the epitome of power and passion" and praising her "kindness and beautiful spirit that will forever remain." sir eltonjohn called her "one of the world's most exciting and electric performers. a total legend on record and on stage. she was untouchtable. " and music royalty diana ross said she was "shocked, saddened, and sending condolences to tina turner's family and loved ones." and the former us president
6:42 am
barack 0bama wrote, "tina turner was raw, powerful, unstoppable. and she was unapologetically herself — speaking and singing her truth throughjoy and pain, triumph and tragedy." before we hear how the news has gone down in the united states, let's hear that unmistakeable voice. # nutbush city limits # river deep, mountain high # rollin' # we're rollin' down the river # all the children say # we don't need another hero # what's love got to do, got to do with it # you're simply the best # better than all the rest

6:48 am
through the morning. sweden is hosting eurovision next year, which will be the 50th anniversary of abba winning the contest with "waterloo". if you were hoping that could mean a very special reunion gig on the big night....think again. benny and bjorn both poured cold water on that idea during an interview with victoria derbyshire, to mark the anniversary of their avatar show in london. take a look. hello. hello, victoria. hello, how are you? we meet at abba's studio. he plays "money, money, money". it's the one—year anniversary of the abba voyage show. it took years to create, you described it as a risk because you did not know if people would come and see digital recreations of you. is it a gamble that paid off? yes, most certainly, yes. well, artistically, definitely. why do you say artistically definitely? because we achieved more than we could have hoped for. seeing the first preview,
6:49 am
and realising that the audience actually connected to what was on there, not like we were watching a movie, but as if we were actually there. where do you want to take the show next? maybe one replica in north america, may be one in asia. there are talks, but nothing tangible yet. i have to say i would like to go to australia. it would feel good to come back there and say thank you, australia, for supporting us from day one. which artists or bands have been to the showm do you know? lots of them. i know that barry gibb has been there. there must be lots of them thinking, "wow, can i do this?" do you think it would be a different experience if it was amy winehouse, whitney houston or prince? tricky, right?
6:50 am
how do you deal with that, because everybody knows they are not around any more, so what would they say themselves about doing this? we can say yes or no to everything. let mejust come round here. so this is chatgpt, which obviously you will know about. if i put in "write a song in the style of abba"... 0k, verse one. # i thought i had it all with you by my side # but then you walked away and my heartjust died. # i search for you in every crowd, i hear you calling out my name. # but you're not there, it's so unfair. # i'm lost in this endless game. i would say that's crap. # waterloo # i was defeated, you won the war... eurovision will be here in sweden next year.
6:51 am
50 years, as you know, you don't need me to remind you, since you won it with waterloo. there is already a clamour for the four of you to reunite on stage, in person, not the avatars. you want to make a bet? are you considering it? no. seriously? seriously, no, no way. why? well, i don't want to and if i don't want to, they won't go. it's the same for all four of us. someone says no, it's a no. and, yes, that's how it will work. you want to go? no, no, no, no. i don't think so. we could celebrate 50 years of abba without us being on stage. so you definitely won't get on stage to sing, but would you walk on stage together, the four of you? not me. so that means... so, that's a no then.
6:52 am
i think that is fairly definitive. i think it is a no.— i think that is fairly definitive. i think it is a no. and not a fan of the ai songwriting _ think it is a no. and not a fan of the ai songwriting either. - that was victoria derbyshire interviewing benny and bjorn. you can watch the full interview on newsnight, which is on bbc two at half—past ten tonight. it will also be on the bbc iplayer. with the sun out and the half—term holidays looming, britain's beaches are about to get a lot busier — but that's not necessarily good news for the birds and marine life. now there's a new set of guidelines to help visitors behave responsibly. 0ur south—west england correspondent jenny kumah can tell us more. she's in st ives. a rather beautiful location. what a spot, and the weather is kind. yes. spot, and the weather is kind. yes, lookin: spot, and the weather is kind. yes, looking glorious _ spot, and the weather is kind. yes, looking glorious on _ spot, and the weather is kind. yes, looking glorious on the _ spot, and the weather is kind. yes, looking glorious on the forecast is more fine weather over the bank holiday and into the half term and we expect it to be really busy here and it's that interaction between the people that come here and the
6:53 am
local marine life that is the focus of the wildlife code, and what we expect to see is what you will generally see around the area, lots of kind of seals using the beach, on the sea, on the rocks, and it happens across the coast here and there have been certain problems, and someone who can talk to me a bit more about that is tony farrell who runs a guiding walking tour, so what kind of problems have you seen? i kind of problems have you seen? i don't see many problems with walkers as they are normally well up on the country code anyway and it's more the visitors who do not normally live in a maritime or marine context and who aren't sure what are good or bad behaviour when it comes to marine life. the problems we have instant i have is a particular yahtzee goals as people will feed them and that makes them quite aggressive and we have a lot of takeaway food outlets and there are
6:54 am
a lot of people eating takeaway food, in particular there were seagulls. there was a man who beat a seagulls. there was a man who beat a seagull to death on the beach because he ate his food and that caused outrage. it is getting too close to the wildlife. some of the grace seals will come into the harbour and are naturally inquisitive and people have taken to feeding them fish and even swimming with them forgetting that they are wild animals and one suspects one day there might be quite a tragic accident and somebody will lose a hand, or it'sjust accident and somebody will lose a hand, or it's just getting too close which is the big problem. hand, or it'sjust getting too close which is the big problem.- hand, or it'sjust getting too close which is the big problem. thank you, ton and which is the big problem. thank you, tony and someone _ which is the big problem. thank you, tony and someone who _ which is the big problem. thank you, tony and someone who has - which is the big problem. thank you, tony and someone who has played . which is the big problem. thank you, tony and someone who has played a | tony and someone who has played a role in developing this code is soo from the local seal charity. what are you hoping this will achieve? brute are you hoping this will achieve? we know from our data that the seals are disturbed 68% of the time when people _ are disturbed 68% of the time when people are present so we also know

7:08 am
clearly matters most to people throughout the programme this morning. this morning we will find out how many migrants came to the uk last year and how many left. the official net migration figure, which is released by the office for national statistics, is expected to rise from half a million people in 2021 to a record 700,000. it comes just days after the government announced that dependents of international students will no longer be able to get a visa to live in the uk. the governor of florida, ron desantis, has launched his bid to become the next us president. hejoins a growing list of candidates looking to challenge donald trump as the republican party nominee. the 44—year—old announced his plans on twitter but they didn't quite go to plan, as our north america correspondent nomia iqbal reports. decline is a choice. success is attainable. a big american flag, dramatic music and a warning only he can fix the problems. just what you would expect from a candidate aiming for the top job.
7:09 am
..and integrity to our institutions. i'm ron desantis and i'm running for president to lead our great american comeback. we have so many people here that i think we are melting the servers. but over on social media, spacex owner elon musk was unable to launch ron desantis on his twitter spaces. he had better luck with his announcement on tv. i'm running to lead a great american comeback. technical glitches aside, ron desantis is the man who republicans see as donald trump without the trauma. who republicans see as donald trump without the drama. technical glitches aside, ron desantis is the man who republicans see as donald trump without the drama. a conservative hero who delivers policies. florida is where woke goes to die. as governor here, he has expanded gun ownership laws, restricted sex and gender identity education in public schools,
7:10 am
limited abortion access and waged a war with disney. ron desantis is hugely popular here but also very controversial. many people don't like him because of his hardline conservative policies. the question is, can he appeal to enough americans outside florida to win a national election? he has already been travelling across the country to drum up support. however, the polls suggest he can't beat donald trump, who has nicknamed him de sinking ship. some supporters in miami say don't rule him out. ron desantis comes with a big war chest of money and a lot of hype. american history is littered with those who tried to be president. ron desantis mayjoin them or go the distance. nomia iqbal, bbc news, miami. you can find out more about us politics and the contest to be the next president, on the "americast" podcast on bbc sounds.
7:11 am
patients are being urged to shop around on the nhs app and website to cut their waiting time for treatment in england. it systems have been updated to allow patients to view up to five providers filtered by distance, waiting times and quality of care. nhs providers, which represents hospitals, welcomed the move but said tackling staff shortages would make the biggest impact. it's 11 minutes past seven. i think it is time to have a look at this. how about this? if you are waking up in st ives in cornwall this morning, this is the kind of thing you are going to be seeing, do we have audio on this? no, we cannot quite hear the waves. matt is in a lovely place, i don't know if you can see it, because you are on the thames,
7:12 am
it, because you are on the thames, it is clear skies and beautiful in st ives. i bet it is. we have fairly tranquil water here at the river thames at marlow rowing club. we have just seen a group of seven—year—old head upstream, just to show that rowing is such an act accessible sport —— a group of 70 years old. we will be chatting to a paralympian later in the programme. the forecast is for a dry day across much of the uk, with varying amounts of cloud, a bit more clout than some of cloud, a bit more clout than some of you saw through yesterday, especially across england and wales. a zone of cloud stretching from north—east england, yorkshire, towards the south—west —— west. we will see the sunshine at times. a few passing showers in scotland. we
7:13 am
have more cloud around so temperatures will be down a touch, we could still see low 20s in sunny spots. this evening and overnight, most will stay dry, a zone of cloud sitting across england, where that's it in place, temperatures will be in double figures. away from that, low single figures for one or two to take you into friday morning. increasing cloud for northern and western scotland which could bring drizzle tomorrow morning. a lot of cloud across north—west of scotland, light rain and drizzle, not a thoroughly wet day. much more sunshine across england and wales, it will feel warmer. the outside chance of a shower but staying dry and warm which will continue into the start of the extended weekend. that is how it is looking behind me in the thames.
7:14 am
as we've been hearing, we'll get a better idea later as to how many migrants came to the uk last year, and how many left. it's been a hot political topic for years but, as breakfast�*sjohn maguire reports, many uk sectors still rely on migrant workers. drawing on the talents of all to create british jobs for british workers. 16 years since the then prime minister gordon brown's pledge, and many sectors continue to rely heavily on migrant labour. jacob from romania came to the uk two years ago, recruited by his boss, who is also romanian, and has his own building firm based here. and why did you come to the uk? because romania, the money is, in the uk, it's... better money? better money, yes. years of failing to invest in the construction workforce means a lack of home—grown tradespeople. certainly not in the quantity and quality, the good quality that we need.
7:15 am
and as industry carries on, those ancient trades, their retiring. and as industry carries on, those ancient trades, they're retiring. so the only real fast flow of new resource is migrant workers. we are doing things with apprenticeships and bringing people from school but those things take time. in kent, the raspberries are ripe and ready. pickers here come on seasonal workers visas. they're not included in today's migration figures. but farmers say the visas are too restrictive. we need people who are going to come who understand the languages that we speak, who settle in quickly to the work they need to do. the time that they're given to work here is only six months. it really needs to be extended. by the time we've gone through the training, the health and safety, they've settled in and started working efficiently as we need them to work, their time is up. the shortage of lorry drivers became a post—brexit political football
7:16 am
and now the logistics industry is trying to diversify the workforce across businesses. we can't stay on our laurels here. we need to be developing and training more and more drivers for the future because the average age of drivers is over 50 already. so with generation logistics programme, which we started eight months ago, now, john, we are targeting people who don't work in logistics with all the opportunities and careers that they could have working in logistics. the sector is targeting people like 0livia, a degree apprentice who is studying and working in the supply chain industry. every day is a different day, so some weeks i go to schools, some weeks and working in the operation, working in the offices, it's different every day, really. no day is the same, it's great. the national care association says it has 165,000 vacancies so recruitment overseas is critical. rose came here from india 20 years
7:17 am
ago and has worked at this care home near nottingham ever since. in india, we won't get much opportunities, you know, so we could, financially, we could do better. usually i'm very busy all the time, never get the time, i won't get to sit down, really busy. but enjoyable? of course, i really enjoy it, that's why i didn't think about moving out from here. cynthia is gaining valuable care experience by working here. 0riginally by zimbabwe, she studied medicine in ukraine originally from zimbabwe, she studied medicine in ukraine but left when the war started. she is in the process of registering to be a doctor in the uk. i'm from a different country. and the uk was more or less ok with me because i could actually speak english. so i trained in a country where it was non—english—speaking, but zimbabwe, being an ex british colony, we speak english and it was one of the countries
7:18 am
that was easier for me to come in and to come and practice. the nhs employs people from overseas at all levels, surgeons, nurses, porters, and there are huge staff shortages for the foreseeable future. there are one in 11 posts vacant across the nhs. so overseas workers are absolutely critical to help plug that gap. but the thing we do know is that this really isn't a sustainable plan. we need to make sure that we are investing in recruiting and training staff from the uk as well, and that's why the government's long awaited long—term workforce plan is absolutely critical. as migration is debated by politicians and people, these are the stories behind the numbers. and across so much of our economy, and country, the work far exceeds the available british workers. john maguire, bbc news.

dr peter walsh is a senior researcher at the migration observatory at the university of oxford. hejoins us now, good to see he joins us now, good to see you, thank you forjoining us. what are you expecting from these muchi trails net migration figures that are released at 9:30am? without holdin: are released at 9:30am? without holding myself — are released at 9:30am? without holding myself hostage _ are released at 9:30am? without holding myself hostage to - are released at 9:30am? withouti holding myself hostage to fortune, we think that these could be in record numbers. you will recall that last year and in the year ending june 2022, we saw record numbers of half a million, net migration, net migration. that is immigration, the number of people coming in for at least a year, minus those leaving for at least a year. and looking at these data, so we have some government data, it could be 550, as high as 700,000, we will find out that 930i high as 700,000, we will find out that 9301 am. i would be very surprised if it was as high as 1 million as we have been hearing some
7:20 am
reports. 700,000, that seems quite plausible. 50. reports. 700,000, that seems quite lausible. ~ ., ., reports. 700,000, that seems quite lausible. ~' ., ., ., plausible. so, i know you are not here to talk _ plausible. so, i know you are not here to talk about _ plausible. so, i know you are not here to talk about the _ plausible. so, i know you are not here to talk about the politics, i plausible. so, i know you are not. here to talk about the politics, but is so woven into this subject. in a way, the problem is that successive administrations have pledged a much lower number. just give us a sense of the difference between what is pledged, and i think we are talking about 100,000, which has been a pledge, and how that compares with where we are now. the pledge, and how that compares with where we are now.— where we are now. the government never came — where we are now. the government never came within _ where we are now. the government never came within 100,000 - where we are now. the government never came within 100,000 of - where we are now. the government never came within 100,000 of its . never came within100,000 of its pledge, which it had for about a decade, and it got axed in 2019. that was always going to be in truth a pretty ambitious target, because the uk is a popular destination for students, the workers, that was always going to be pretty fanciful, we thought. they never came close to it. future governments will be wary, and we have seen this on the part of rishi sunak, wary of making a specific commitment. but rishi sunak, wary of making a specific commitment. but there is a hu . e specific commitment. but there is a hue uulf
7:21 am
specific commitment. but there is a huge gulf between _ specific commitment. but there is a huge gulf between we _ specific commitment. but there is a huge gulf between we are _ specific commitment. but there is a huge gulf between we are talking i huge gulf between we are talking about a pledge from david cameron, long time ago, to bring that number down to the tens of thousands. and if we are talking about that number potentially hitting 700,000, what has happened over the last decade, and how much of it might be to do with one of world events like the war you're in ukraine?— with one of world events like the war you're in ukraine? that's a big art of it. war you're in ukraine? that's a big part of it- the _ war you're in ukraine? that's a big part of it. the period _ war you're in ukraine? that's a big part of it. the period now- war you're in ukraine? that's a big part of it. the period now is - war you're in ukraine? that's a big part of it. the period now is very l part of it. the period now is very unusual. this large number, and it is large relatively, in the past decade the average annual net migration figure has been 250,000, between that and 350,000, very seldom above that. we have three developments now, the war in ukraine, that is a big one, 100 and 50,000 arrivals last year stop the other bespoke humanitarian route, the hong kong scheme is about 50,000 last year. the other two routes making up the figure, student migration. we have become really popular as a destination,
7:22 am
initiatives made by universities, by the government, to recruit more students, especially from countries like india and nigeria. and they also last year brought 100,000 family members, partners and children. the other one is work migration. so that has been really are commonly used route last year, these are people going into the nhs, working as doctors, nurses, and social care as well. those have been the big industries. 50 social care as well. those have been the big industries.— the big industries. so help us, peter, the big industries. so help us, peter. when — the big industries. so help us, peter, when we _ the big industries. so help us, peter, when we hear - the big industries. so help us, peter, when we hear the - the big industries. so help us, - peter, when we hear the politicians later in the day talking about the reasons, and you havejust later in the day talking about the reasons, and you have just accounted for very accurately certain things that are beyond anyone's control, ukraine for example and hong kong. you are talking about something like 200,000 people. that sits there, these are unusual circumstances. above and beyond that, politicians want to make this country attractive for people to come here, they say they want a high skill high wage economy. so how in the great scheme
7:23 am
of things do you try and balance up the notion of trying to get migration down whilst having the notion of having a place where you want to attract the best people to come and work, and who do you give visas to? again, i know we are dabbling into politics, but these are issues that all countries have to deal with. are issues that all countries have to deal with-— are issues that all countries have to deal with. that is the very heart ofthe to deal with. that is the very heart of the problem. _ to deal with. that is the very heart of the problem. this _ to deal with. that is the very heart of the problem. this is _ to deal with. that is the very heart of the problem. this is the - of the problem. this is the challenge the government faces, it wants to get the overall numbers down but when you look at the constituent parts that make up the total net migration figure, its ukrainians, people coming into skilled occupations, filling key gaps in health and social, its international students who pay high fees that subsidise the education of domestic students. when you look at those, it becomes very difficult to think, where do we want less? that is a aood think, where do we want less? that is a good closing — think, where do we want less? that is a good closing thought for us. we are waiting for the figures, around 9:30am. and then we will know the
7:24 am
detail. good to speak to you. thank ou so detail. good to speak to you. thank you so much- _ creating a popular tv drama is notoriously hard. making one in which every character is a truly terrible person is even more impressive. that's what the makers of succession have done. in just five years, the tale of a media mogul and his ruthlessly ambitious children which ends on monday has gained millions of devoted fans. brian cox plays the lead role of logan roy. he's been speaking to the bbc�*s amol rajan. and we must warn you that this interview contains a major spoiler for those not up to speed with the current series. he's had a lifetime of roles on stage and screen. sit on the floor. it's fun. but it's this role in succession that's given brian cox his greatest success. get down! logan roy, the media boss and terrifying patriarch. 0n the floor, boar.
7:25 am
given this programme is airing shortly before the finale of succession, i think it makes sense to begin at the end. and this is where we cut to an enormous spoiler alert. we tell people that logan roy does die. was it strange leaving the production for a while, this production that had been such a big part of your life, so actually part of your mind? yeah, it was odd. it was an odd feeling. i, you know, i looked on it wrongly, wrongly, but i looked on it as a form of rejection. the series was created by british writer and producerjesse armstrong. he's delivered nearly 40 episodes and one of the most famous characters in recent television history. logan roy's menace is undeniable. i'm going to build something better, something faster, lighter, meaner, wilder. and i'm going to do it from in here where you are. did you have any leeway, any sway in saying tojesse armstrong, "i think maybe logan shouldn't die. i think maybe..."
7:26 am
no, ididn't. there's no point going down that road, especially with somebody like jesse, because he's already made a plan, but he decided to make logan die, i think ultimately too early. i mean, he made him die in the third episode. and, you know, i think maybe he could have died in about, i would have thought the fifth or sixth episode. i would have thought that would have been appropriate. it was bold ofjesse, and that's wherejesse's great. there's no question he's a writing genius. cox's passion and willingness to speak his mind has gone beyond the acting industry, with him now becoming one of the loudest voices in the fight for scottish independence. i had to readdress something. i think, what is wrong? why is it not working? and then i started to look at these islands, and then i started to look at scottish history and realising how scotland had been traduced time and time and time again and how constantly it was the poor relation, even though it contributed an enormous amount, but at the same time it wasn't free.
7:27 am
let me push back impartially and firmly on what you're saying, because the proponents of the union would argue that there is nevertheless, for all the history are talking about, there is something precious and sacred about the union and moreover, that it allows each constituent nation to be bigger than it otherwise would be, especially in a world where power is moving east. i don't agree with you. it's not my view, i'm impartial, it's not my view. my feeling is it's precisely that we have not being allowed to be who we are and we haven't been. we've served, we've served and we've judiciously served at oui’ own expense. and i suddenly realise, you see, i do believe we should be a union. i agree with that. but we shouldn't be a united kingdom. we should be a united federation. now aged 76, cox lives in new york with his second wife, but still returns to london next year. he'll be back on stage
7:28 am
in the west end. you're now held up as one of the big voices on film and tv. what do you make of what's going on with this writer's strike out in hollywood? well, they've got to, they have to strike. they really do. what's it about, for people who don't know what's going on? well, it's just about getting proper pay for what they do. and it's a big industry now, and the writers are at the centre of it and they should get what they deserve. and are they not getting what they deserve right now? not at the moment. they will, it will be a long haul, but they will in the end, they'll come to some kind of agreement. let's have some quickfire questions. so this is maximum ten words, minimum one. we'll start with some opinions on other actors. what do you make of brad pitt? brad is a worker. and he's really worked on himself as an actor. i don't think his natural inclination was to do that. i think because he was the way he looked he stumbled into it. but i think he's become an extremely fine actor. michael caine. michael caine!
7:29 am
um... actually, i saw him the other night. he was really good. i mean, he can be really good, michael. no, no, no, he is, sorry. that sounds terribly patronizing, i don't mean it. what do you make of helen mirren? i love her. idris elba. i don't know idris elba, but i admire him. johnny depp. he's more of a creature than an actor, johnny depp. you know, he's much more of a creature and he's a great creature, don't get me wrong. but i've never quite believed there is a range there. there's always that thing aboutjohnny depp, you know. if you could impart one life lesson from all that you've learnt for that 17 year old brian cox on the train down from dundee to london in the swinging 60s, what would it be? 0h, always pursue your bliss, always. your bliss? your bliss, yeah, that which fulfills you.

brian cox, an absolute pleasure to talk to you. thank you. amol rajan, bbc news. succession is the highlight of my monday nights, the finale on monday. always pursue your bliss, he said! you can watch amol�*s full interview with brian cox tonight at seven on bbc two, and on bbc iplayer now. still to come on breakfast, we'll tell you about flight sergeant peter brown, a jamaica—born raf veteran who passed away in december and who is finally getting a funeral fit for a hero. time now to get the news, travel and weather where you are. hello, good morning from bbc london. i'm victoria hollins. workers at tourist attractions and other sites across london will strike today in a dispute over pay. 900 workers employed by the city of london corporation who are members of the gmb union will walk out for 24 hours.
7:31 am
they'll be picketing at locations including the barbican centre, tower bridge and the old bailey. a city of london corporation spokesperson said this year's pay award gave all full—time employees at least £2,300 extra, and addressed the "challenges staff face in the fairest way possible" meanwhile security guards at heathrow airport are staging a fresh three day strike over pay. members of the unite union have already held 15 days of industrial action there, including over easter. the airport says it has contingency plans in place, and expects a smooth half—term getaway for passengers. rail investigators say they'll be looking at an incident at clapham common tube station where passengers smashed windows to get out of the carriages after thinking there was a fire. they'll look at london underground's procedures as well as brake maintenance to try and improve safety. a new railway station will open its doors to the public in reading this weekend. green park station will start welcoming passengers on saturday. it's one of a handful of stations being opened across the entire network this year.
7:32 am
and the v&a museum's new photography centre opens today. it'll be the largest permanent space dedicated to photography in the uk with seven galleries. four will showcase the museum's world—leading work and its diverse histories. 0ne london artist is very excited to be a part of it. incredible to be actually in the centre of this new photography centre, to have people coming in and seeing this. i think making it more accessible, because the art world in the world of ai are both not hugely accessible, so to bring it into a space like this is a really exciting moment. let's take a look at the tubes now. there's a good service on the tubes this morning. just minor delays on thejubilee and waterloo & city lines. now onto the weather with elizabeth rizzini. good morning. high pressure will keep us dry and settled as we head through the rest of this week, the bank holiday weekend and indeed much of next week, too. but there will be subtle differences day on day in terms of cloud,
7:33 am
sunshine and temperature. yesterday was beautiful, lots of sunshine around and plenty of blue sky but today it is cloudier and cooler. we are starting with plenty of cloud and its been blowing in on the north—east wind, from the north sea, so it's cloudy, fairly mild and we will keep the cloud through the morning then it will start to break up into the afternoon. to leave us with lots of sunshine, potentially, by the time we get to the end of the day. temperatures lower than they were yesterday and there is still that noticeable north—easterly blowing. as we head through the evening and overnight with the clear skies it will feel chillier than last night. friday, a strengthening north—easterly wind and lots of blue sky and sunshine around again. temperatures a little lower than they were yesterday but they will start to recover over the course of the weekend. we will keep the sunshine on saturday, sunday possibly a little cloudier. that's it. head to our website to see how peckham rye station has regained some of its former spleandor. we're back in half an hour. see you then.
7:34 am
hello, this is breakfast with tina daheley and charlie stayt. let's return to one of our top stories now and that new energy price cap — of our top stories now and that which was released half an hour ago by the regulator 0fgem, which will affect how much we pay for our gas and electricity. at its highest back in march, the energy price cap was £4279. the current price cap stands at £3280, although most households are paying less than that because of the government's energy price guarantee. and, wejust found out around half an hour ago that the figure for the price cap from july will be £2074. it is widely expected to fall below the £2,000 figure, after that.
7:35 am
jonathan brearley is chief executive at 0fgem and he joins us from westminster. good morning and thank you for your time this morning. we have gone through quite a lot of numbers there and people could be quite confused by the scale of the numbers and what it means. let me ask you a blunt question. everybody�*s bills, everybody watching right now, what difference will the number you have made today make to their bills? let's start with what we are paying now, we are paying about £2500 for the average household. that is coming down to around £2074 injuly and that is reflecting a massive fall in the cost of the energy we need, the cost of the gas we need for cookers and the cost of electricity to power is things like tvs and appliances and a lot of our industry and the reason it is coming down is because there has been an enormous change in the wholesale market since we last assessed the price, so you mention the true figure, the amount we would be paying without government support,
7:36 am
would be £3300. we've seen a drop of around £1200 in those costs and part of that is the governments for ending in part will go directly into reducing bills. the one thing i would say is as government support ends, partly the price guarantee and some of the payments from last year, this will feel still expensive for many customers and roughly £2000 a year is still well above the price people paid in 2021, therefore one thing we would like to do is continue to work with the industry and government to target any support or help for those who need it the most. 50 or help for those who need it the most. ,, ., , or help for those who need it the most, ,, ., , ., most. so this moment in time where the rice most. so this moment in time where the price cap — most. so this moment in time where the price cap you _ most. so this moment in time where the price cap you have _ most. so this moment in time where the price cap you have announced i the price cap you have announced today will kick in, it will sit in almost simultaneously with the government support scheme ending and in their heads, straightaway people think, that will kind of feel like there's not much change. the government _ there's not much change. the government are _ there's not much change. tue government are put in there's not much change. tij: government are put in around £1500 towards our bills over the course of
7:37 am
winter and prices were extremely high at the start of the year and the price guarantee combined with some of the payments they made made that sort of easier, not easy, but easier for many households but the truth is at £2000 a year, many families will still struggle and thatis families will still struggle and that is why we all need to continue our efforts to make sure we are providing support. the thing i would say is that now prices are coming down, i can understand why many of us are not receiving support and why the support should be targeted at those who need it the most. just castin: those who need it the most. just casting forward _ those who need it the most. just casting forward a little bit for people as to where you think this is going, because as you have said many times, these figures are still very high. i'm looking at the numbers and this was august 2021 and the price cap then was £1162. these figures are still very high, so in the medium term, how is this going to pan out? tt’s
7:38 am
medium term, how is this going to an out? �* , , , medium term, how is this going to an out? 3 , , ., ., pan out? it's very, very hard to redict pan out? it's very, very hard to predict what — pan out? it's very, very hard to predict what will _ pan out? it's very, very hard to predict what will happen i pan out? it's very, very hard to predict what will happen in i pan out? it's very, very hard to predict what will happen in the | pan out? it's very, very hard to i predict what will happen in the gas and electricity markets because we had one of the biggest price shocks everin had one of the biggest price shocks ever in history over the last year and a half, ever since russia first began withholding gas and then we had the war in ukraine so things are very different than they were in 2021. when we look at the forward prices, frankly the price cap predictions are very, very uncertain and remain roughly steady but we have seen the market coming down significantly and we are seeing the market stabilising, so it's hard to predict what will happen in the future but we are seeing some things return to the sort of market we had before, in particular one thing we are hopeful of the second half of the year is not only will we have the year is not only will we have the regulated price, so the price cap that virtually all of us pay now, and we might see better value fixed deals re—enter the market and that will be good for customers so they can do even better than the regulator price we announced today. is that something you will be requiring of energy providers? brute requiring of energy providers? we don't requiring of energy providers? : don't require that but in a
7:39 am
competitive market with a number of companies we have got, the incentives are strong for them to issue tariffs. if they don't, they will begin to lose customers rapidly. as you say, energy prices have never been more important in the household bill, so many people will be looking to do better in the market. tt t will be looking to do better in the market. , ., , ., market. if i understand you correctly. _ market. if i understand you correctly. you _ market. if i understand you correctly, you are - market. if i understand you correctly, you are saying i market. if i understand you i correctly, you are saying that if those energy providers do not provide competitive fixed rates now, there is no excuse for not doing that, because we've gone through patch, unusually where there has been no point in shopping around because the deals didn't work out. are you laying down the gauntlet to the energy providers to say now is the energy providers to say now is the time? ., ., �* _ , the time? no, what i'm saying is the market is stabilising _ the time? no, what i'm saying is the market is stabilising and _ the time? no, what i'm saying is the market is stabilising and it _ the time? no, what i'm saying is the market is stabilising and it will i market is stabilising and it will take time to change. many companies are already looking at what they can do and what i am hopeful of his as we get to the second half of the year, as conditions stabilise, without the government support in place which remember was a big part of the bills we paid, there will be
7:40 am
opportunities for companies to offer fixed deals and if they don't take the opportunity, that's a business decision for them but my feeling that will be a commercial decision they will live to regret.— they will live to regret. there is a riskier that _ they will live to regret. there is a riskier that because _ they will live to regret. there is a riskier that because the - they will live to regret. there is a riskier that because the figure i they will live to regret. there is a riskier that because the figure is| riskier that because the figure is coming down there might be a sense that everything is getting better, and we all know that for many households, even with this drop now, which won't feel like much because all the factors you explained, things are still very, very tough. are you encouraging the government to do more to help those people who are still struggling?— are still struggling? coming back to the question _ are still struggling? coming back to the question of— are still struggling? coming back to the question of government - are still struggling? coming back to | the question of government support and what we should all do, we are saying to the government that we are looking at what we can do but also saying to the industry that all of us need to redouble our efforts and really protect those customers who are most vulnerable and still will struggle to pay their bills. you absolutely right. 0ver £2000 year, this will be tough for many families
7:41 am
still and therefore all of us need to make sure we are doing what we can to protect vulnerable customers. my can to protect vulnerable customers. my snapshot, and correct me if i'm wrong, and everyone is trying to work out the figures and how it will work out the figures and how it will work for them themselves, is essentially most peoples bills will return to something like they were last winter, even though ironically in summer when you would be using less power. is that about right? is that how it works out? t less power. is that about right? is that how it works out?— less power. is that about right? is that how it works out? i think on a very rough — that how it works out? i think on a very rough basis. _ that how it works out? i think on a very rough basis, i'd _ that how it works out? i think on a very rough basis, i'd say _ that how it works out? i think on a very rough basis, i'd say that i that how it works out? i think on a very rough basis, i'd say that is i very rough basis, i'd say that is fair. bills are going to be steady compared to what we saw roughly last year, but remember, the predictions only a short time ago but they might be up to 2000 and possibly higher. so this is a better situation and a step in the right direction but we are not where we were in 2021 and august need to think about how we respond to that. the other thing i would say that is important is that this country as a whole moves to a different energy system so alongside
7:42 am
gas we need different forms of energy which are proving to be cheaper to make sure we can deliver cheaper to make sure we can deliver cheaper bills for people and bennacer energy security that we can deliver on net zero and climate change. that means more renewables and nuclear and using our power differently to make sure we are as efficient as we can possibly be and thatis efficient as we can possibly be and that is what we are working with the sector and government to make sure about, but it will take time to build an infrastructure that we have a more resilient energy system in the future. a more resilient energy system in the future-— a more resilient energy system in the future. ., ,, y., ., i. the future. thank you for your time, from ofgem. _ the future. thank you for your time, from ofgem, jonathan _ the future. thank you for your time, from ofgem, jonathan brearley i the future. thank you for your time, from ofgem, jonathan brearley and | from 0fgem, jonathan brearley and it's worth pointing out the average figures we are talking about in some ways means nothing, there is no such thing as an average household. this is a unit price, so if you use more, you bill is higher, a straightforward equation. so the figure we are talking about the £2704, that is only an average figure. exactly, not the maximum you

7:44 am
they got the point they needed by holding champions manchester city to a 1—1 draw at the amex stadium. brighton had gone behind in the match but they pulled level in truly spectacular fashion. just look at this from, 19 year old julio enciso. a goal of the season contender? a finish like that worthy of a little jig. brighton held worthy of a little jig. on for the draw to trigger great scenes down on the south coast but also delighted was the city manager, who couldn't believe how well the champions did, considering they'd been out partying after clinching the premier league title again. today they showed me why there is in the champions league, and 40 hours ago they were drinking all the alcohol in manchester and you know, there is some alcohol in the veins with the way the players ran and played and to come here and just to relax and play, you remember how good we are being the champions, we were humble, running a lot and we played good, and that is why we are
7:45 am
the champions for many years, because these players have something special. aberdeen sealed third place in the scottish premiership last night. they beat st mirren 3—0, and it means they're guaranteed european group stage football of some sort next season. hearts needed to win at rangers to take the race for third into the final match of the season but they could only draw 2—2. substitute garang kuol scored a stoppage—time equaliser. hearts need to avoid defeat in their final match to earn fourth and a place in the europa conference league qualifiers. dundee united are on the brink of relegation following a 3—0 defeat at home to kilmarnock. they'll have to win their last game against motherwell, hope ross county lose and overturn a goal difference of minus eight to stay up. all the home nations, wales, scotland, northern ireland and england resume their euro 2024 qualifying campaign in mid june. and we are starting to see the squads being announced starting with england. and manager gareth southgate has told brentford's ivan toney he can still be involved in next summer's euros. toney was banned for eight months by the football association after admitting over 200 betting offences. he can't play football again
7:46 am
untiljanuary 17th next year. what bothers me is we have to look after people and he's injured at the moment, so what does he do about getting fit? i don't think that's how it should work and i don't think thatis how it should work and i don't think that is the best rehabilitation is programmes would work like that, but he knows we picked him because we felt until there was a charge, he should be allowed to play and when he comes back, if he plays well we will pick him. la liga presidentjavier tebas has issued an apology to viniciusjunior following his comments made to the brazilian star on social media after the forward was racially abused at valencia's mestaya stadium on sunday. despite the real madrid star's red card from that match being rescinded, an injury kept him out of their 2—1 win over rayo vallercano last night. prior to the game, both the supporters in the stadium and his real madrid team—mates paid tribute to the brazilian whojoined them on the pitch before
7:47 am
taking his seat alongside club president florentino perez. england manager gareth southgate is among many who have condemned the abuse, directed at vincius. with four stages to go, britain's geraint thomas remains in control as he tries to win his first giro d'italia title. stage 17 had a finish to remember as alberto dainese, jonathan milan and michael matthews all crossed the line together. a photo finish showing dainese just edged it. how do they settle that? thomas finished in the peloton, meaning he keeps his 18 second lead and retains the leaders pinkjersey. come on, you can do. today, six climbs, and what is the worst thing you want at the end? a three kilometre climb at the south end of the alps in northern italy. i hope

7:51 am
westminster city council and the raf soon realised they were going to need a much larger church, as helena wilkinson explains. this is flight sergeant peter brown. the young jamaican travelled thousands of miles to the uk so he could volunteer with the royal air force during the second world war. after he came to britain, he trained as a wireless operator and air gunner and he flew in a lancaster bomber when he served in 625 squadron. few knew about his military service with the raf until after he died. the air force veteran, who lived alone, died in his flat in west london in december. he was 96 and had no known relatives. our intention was originally that there would be the funeral — us — and we'd go to the pub and have a drink in his memory. although he lived alone, peter brown had the support of friendly neighbours
7:52 am
who saw him every day. sitting on the bench where they would often meet him for a chat, they told us about peter brown, the modest private man. over the years i knew him, the only time he really opened up was when i introduced him to my seven—year—old grandson, who at that time was crazy about all things aircraft. and he talked to him in some detail about his time in the raf, flying in lancaster bombers in a really open and fulsome way, but not in any sense a boastful way. # happy birthday to you. # this was peter brown's 93rd birthday, organised by his neighbours. 93 today, pete — looking 60. after peter brown died, his neighbours appealed to organisers to give him a fitting funeral. when peter brown's story was made public, organisers of his funeral were inundated with requests from members of the public who wanted to attend the service.
7:53 am
it was due to be held in march, but it was moved to find a bigger location — here at st clement danes church in westminster, the central church of the raf. around 600 people will be at the funeral service later. it's going to be a really special event with lots of different elements. reverend group captain ruth hake will be leading it. the chief of the air staff will be here representing the royal air force, which is, of course, a sign of how importantly we see this as a way of saying goodbye to somebody who was probably one of our very last representatives of the group of volunteers from the caribbean who came to help us in our darkest hour and our hour of need. so it's really important that we make that commitment to him. in the congregation today will be distant relatives of peter brown, including brooke alexander. she was traced by anglia research, a company based in the uk.
7:54 am
she's travelled from jamaica especially for the service. he really dedicated himself to the protection of people. clearly, that was obviously a passion of his and something that mattered to him. and the fact that because of this, we will remember him. he will be remembered. his legacy will live on in the minds and hearts of a lot of people who have connected with this story. and most importantly, he lives on in the legacy of our family. flight sergeant peter brown's funeral will reflect on his service to this country. but it will also be a moment for those who knew him well to remember theirfriend. he wasjust part of the landscape here. he was part of our everyday experience of, if we go out somewhere, chances are we going to bump into peter. and he is and will continue to be sorely missed. that was helena wilkinson reporting.

7:59 am
i'm victoria hollins. workers at tourist attractions and other sites across london will strike today in a dispute over pay. 900 workers employed by the city of london corporation who are members of the gmb union will walk out for 2h hours. they'll be picketing at locations including the barbican centre, tower bridge and the old bailey. a city of london corporation spokesperson said this year's pay award gave all full—time employees at least £2,300 extra, and addressed the "challenges staff face in the fairest way possible" rail investigators say they'll be looking at an incident at clapham common tube station where passengers smashed windows to get out of the carraiges after thinking there was a fire. they'll look at london underground's procedures as well as brake maintenance to try and improve safety. let's take a look at the tubes now. there are severe delays on thejubilee line and the northern line.
8:00 am
and the waterloo & city line has minor delays. now onto the weather. oday will see a cloudy start for most, but sunny spells will tend to become more frequent as the day progresses and cloud turns patchier. largely sunny by the late afternoon and evening. maximum temperature, 21 degrees. that's it — head to our website to see how peckham rye station has regained some of its former splendor. we're back in half an hour, see you then. good morning, welcome to breakfast with tina daheley and charlie stayt. our headlines today. the typical annual household energy bill will fall to just over £2,000 a year from july for households in england, scotland and wales. we've just had the new price cap figure from ofgem announced an hour ago. we will be looking at exactly what
8:01 am
it means for your bills in the months ahead. # you're simply the best. tributes pour in from music superstars for the queen of rock and roll tina turner, who's died at the age of 83. new figures are expected to show net migration to the uk reached a record level last year. the seagulls soar into europe. brighton not only secure a top six finish thanks to this spectacular goal, but also a place in the group stage of next season's europa league for the first time. # waterloo, i was defeated, you won the war. and we'll hear from abba on those eurovision reunion rumours. iam by i am by the water here at marlow in the river thames, taking a look at the river thames, taking a look at the weather today which for most of you is a dry day, a few showers but with less breeze in northern scotland. the full forecast is coming up.
8:02 am
it's thursday the 25th of may. our main story. household energy bills are set to fall from july after the regulator ofgem announced a new price cap. it means the typical household will be paying £426 less per year according to ofgem. will be paying £426 less hannah is in ipswich. will be paying £426 less good will be paying £426 less morning, hannah. there a lot good morning, hannah. there are a lot of numbers attached to this news this morning, break it down for us or not it will actually mean for people's bills?— or not it will actually mean for people's bills? let's run through these numbers _ people's bills? let's run through these numbers and _ people's bills? let's run through these numbers and hopefully - people's bills? let's run through i these numbers and hopefully make people's bills? let's run through - these numbers and hopefully make it clearer. the energy price cap, set ljy clearer. the energy price cap, set by ofgem from july, will be £2074. that is down significantly from the £2500 that effectively has been the price cap with the government subsidising all of our bills. a good
8:03 am
way of looking at it will be to say that for £100 you spend on your energy bills now, you will soon be spending about £83 instead. the figures that are going around in the thousands of pounds are averages, so if you use more energy than that you will pay more, if you use less you will pay more, if you use less you will pay more, if you use less you will pay less. the amount that energy companies are allowed to charge you per unit of electricity or gas that you use. the other important thing to remember is last winter, we all had £400 gradually taken off of our bills, again because of government support. when you take that into account, it means looking at the months ahead, there is relatively little difference between the amount that people can perhaps expect to be paying this winter out of their own pocket from these figures this morning compared to what people were paying last winter. it does mean that energy prices are falling for the first time in nearly 18 months. this is
8:04 am
what the energy regulator ofgem had said a little earlier. it’s what the energy regulator ofgem had said a little earlier.— said a little earlier. it's very hard to predict _ said a little earlier. it's very hard to predict what - said a little earlier. it's very hard to predict what will - said a little earlier. it's very - hard to predict what will happen in the future — hard to predict what will happen in the future but we are seeing some things— the future but we are seeing some things return to the sort of markets that we _ things return to the sort of markets that we had — things return to the sort of markets that we had before. in particular one thing — that we had before. in particular one thing we are hopeful of in the second _ one thing we are hopeful of in the second half of this year is not only will we _ second half of this year is not only will we have the regulated price, so the price _ will we have the regulated price, so the price cap that virtually all of us pay— the price cap that virtually all of us pay now, but we may will see better— us pay now, but we may will see better value fixed—price deals re—entering the market which would be good _ re—entering the market which would be good for customers because they will he _ be good for customers because they will be able to do even better than the cap— will be able to do even better than the can we — will be able to do even better than the cap we are announcing today. there _ the cap we are announcing today. there is _ the cap we are announcing today. there is a — the cap we are announcing today. there is a feeling here that there is a long time before these price changes make a real difference to peoples lives, especially with the wider cost of living pressures that people are facing. we are unlikely to see energy prices return to where they were before the crisis. but we might now start to see the return of some more competitive fixed term tariffs that we see much more often.
8:05 am
we will be talking about that in the next half an hour or so, whether or not they might be a good deal stop for the moment, thank you. tributes to the singer tina turner have been pouring in overnight after her death at the age of 83 was announced. known as the queen of rock'n'roll, she survived poverty, domestic abuse and career setbacks before becoming one of the world's biggest stars. 0ur arts correspondent david sillito looks back at her life. # when you were a young boy # did you have a puppy # that always followed you around... # 1966 — river deep, mountain high. in yourface, hip shaking, sweat drenched, passionate pop perfection. # and do i love you # my, oh, my # river deep, mountain high... # however, in america, the song was a flop. it would be another 17 years
8:06 am
before tina turner truly made it. # baby. # # now, ike turner, i'm all you need # so darling... # anna mae bullock grew up in nutbush, tennessee. her family were sharecroppers. she started singing in ike turner's band when she was a teenager. # nutbush city limits... # and poor, largely abandoned by her parents, it was, she hoped, her escape. but it was an escape into a different sort of misery. # rolling down the river... # there were hits and the world saw a confident, powerful woman on stage. # i'm the gypsy, the acid queen... # but the acid queen in tommy was, in private, fearful of her violent, controlling husband. finally, in 1976, she walked out.
8:07 am
i did try to leave, and the first time was when i had the experience of being whipped with a wire hanger. and then another time was something else. and i realised, "well, you don't go back." # i'm your private dancer # a dancerfor money... # what then followed was a rebirth. # let's stay together...# the team behind the band heaven 17 and the support of david bowie helped set her on her way to becoming one of the biggest selling acts in the world. # 0h, what's love got to do, got to do with it... # no wonder they turned her life story into a musical. and the tributes — among them mickjagger. she was, he says, "inspiring, warm, funny and generous. she helped me so much." she was an inspiration for artists such as beyonce. i'll never forget the first time i saw you perform.
8:08 am
i had never in my life saw a woman so powerful. so fearless. so fabulous. and those legs! here performing in her honour in 2005. # rolling on the river... # cheering and applause # you're simply the best # better than all the rest... # and in the year 2000, she was 60 years old and the biggest selling concert artist in the world. from annie mae bullock and the church choir of nutbush baptist church, to multi—platinum selling buddhist rock and roll

eltonjohn, those are the people paying tribute. tina turner matters so much both because of her brilliance as a performer, someone who has been in uk chart seven decades in a row and also crucially for the inspiration of her life story. the fact she escaped a 16 year abusive relationship with ike turner, famously running off into the night in dallas with 36 cents in her pocket and trying to rebuild her life. at the end of the 70s, she was working as a cleaner, singing twice a night in hotel to get the money. the record industry was not interested. then two men from yorkshire came along, martyn ware and ian craig smith, who used to be in human league, they got their favourite artists to record cover versions. they got tina turner to do

8:13 am
to a record 700,000. our home editor mark easton has the story. so very carefully. so make sure that the packaging doesn't touch the sterile field. among the student nurses at the university of wolverhampton's campus in telford is titilope, a nigerian who's paying full international fees to get her nursing qualifications. she's among 680,000 foreign students currently in britain, contributing £42 billion to the uk economy, but most also contributing to the net migration figure, the difference between those who come and those who leave. some people arejust doing it because, "0h, i have to leave the country, because i want a greater life, i want a greater opportunity for myself." and some people are genuinely doing it because they want it for that educational background or they want to do something better for themselves. they want to achieve more goals. so worried is the government about the size of the net migration figure due to be published later this morning that they've announced plans to stop foreign postgraduates from using student visas as what they call a back door route to work. universities say that
8:14 am
international students are a huge boost to the uk economy. what we need to look at is the benefits that we have, the rich exchanges that we have and the contributions. we know as a country where we're missing people that we need. we haven't got those skills necessarily here. so having international students, dependents coming and supporting the contributions is huge for the university and huge for the local community. the migration figures published by the 0ns today will include up to 228,000 ukrainians who've been given visas after fleeing the war. another 130,000 visas have been issued to hong kong nationals fleeing political restrictions. with hundreds of thousands of international students and workers included the speculation is that the new net migration figure will be a record at around 700,000. put the slide sheet in. there have been arguments within government over restricting international work visas for sectors like social care. many care homes report shortages and want to bring
8:15 am
in more foreign staff. but the director of this care worker training facility in telford believes home grown workers can and should be found. there is not a single argument that i can see exists where you've got a local care provider bringing in 20 carers from india, for example, where two miles away we've got a classroom with 15 uk citizens working hard to break down all of their barriers to get a career. you're going to keep your hands on the bed and we're going to slide. that is the big question for the government. should britain endure shortages in areas like health care and hospitality while we wait for uk workers to come forward and get trained? or do we allow businesses to expand using foreign workers boosting economic growth? today's figures are likely to inflame the arguments once again. mark easton, bbc news, telford. the governor of florida, ron desantis, has launched his bid to become the next us president. hejoins a growing list of candidates looking to challenge donald trump as the republican party nominee. the 44—year—old announced his plans

who died of brain cancer on monday, have been speaking of their pride in how she dealt with her illness. laura's mum nicola and her sister gracie say they're determined that her legacy of being positive, spreading joy, and raising awareness of brain tumours will go on. they've been speaking to rogerjohnson. we really appreciate all the support that we've had and all the comments and all the nice messages that we've had. and it's meant so much to know that laura has meant so much to other people. it's the people that say, i'm going to try and be more laura, i've booked a blood donation and there's been a few that have contacted... you gave blood on the day she died, didn't you? yeah, i did, i did. which was a bit weird, but it was on the calendar and she would have not been impressed if i'd have said that was an excuse for not going. when i went, i did want to tell everybody, i wanted to stand on a table and go, "my daughter died this morning." we're going to just try and do what we can to make her proud of us and to carry on doing the things that she thought were important. it's seeing how many people she's
8:20 am
touched and how many people she's changed. yeah. and the girl that messages from school yesterday to say that when she was being bullied at school, laura always made a point of including her and being kind to her and years down the line, you know, she's neverforgotten how laura was with her and that... i would never have known that. and that was such a lovely thing to read. but my first instinct was to run upstairs to tell her about it. remarkable woman. grace, you'vejust finished your university degree. laura finished hers a year ago. but she completed that start to finish whilst going through treatment. i mean, you must be in awe of that. she... she just makes everyone look bad, honestly. it was really hard. she's incredible. but she was really determined. and she wanted to walk down her graduation hall and pick up that certificate. and that was an amazing day, wasn't it? it was the best day. you it was the best day. honestly, she'sjust a force of nature. she's a force of nature.
8:21 am
but what was she like as a big sister? 0h, this'll be good. she was an incredible big sister. she looked after me. she sorted my finances out. she was the first person to ever take me in a car and teach me to drive. there are some stories she'd hate me saying. she used to charge me 20p to play with her when i was about... she's always been very good with finances. she had her mind to money. yeah. and she charged me 20p an hour to play dolls with her. but when you went out and you weren't supposed to and you've been told you had to stay in and you fell over and cut your jeans. my knees were all grazed up so she put me in the bath. she cleaned my wounds, like never told mum and dad, like stuff like that. she loved you to bits, didn't she? she's so proud of you. you've raised awareness about brain cancer by being so public about what your family has gone through for some years now. was that a very conscious decision? it was because laura became an ambassador for the brain tumour charity. that was the january after she was diagnosed in the october. and when we joined this community, we realised that although it's the biggest cancer killer of children and adults under 40, it

only gets like 2% of cancer funding. and when you first find that out, when your child is one of those people, you just can't understand why other people don't know that and why that's not a scandal, because how are we ever going to improve things if that's the amount of research that's spent on it? 50, laura, from being a really private person who had no social media, she was planning on an m15 type career, so she wanted to have no social media trace. there was a complete change because she was so conscious of the fact that this needed to be something people knew about and people needed to know what the symptoms were so they were diagnosed more quickly. and she just took her whole campaigning role really seriously. and we were an extension of that. so things just snowballed really from that point onwards. and that desire to make a difference even continues now she's no longer here. just explain what she's doing. it does. well, laura knew that
8:23 am
without research, we weren't ever going to improve things and people like us would be in this same position five and ten years down the line. so she wanted to donate her brain so it could be used for research. so that's going to be happening at the end of the week, and that's really hard for us because she's our little girl, but it's what she would have wanted. and if it can benefit other people in the long run, then that's her legacy, isn't it? yeah. she never cried about herself. the only time we ever saw her cry was when we lost another person with this disease. and that would break her heart. but she was never sorry for herself. she actually said that some of the best times in her life had been since she was diagnosed and some of the experiences that she'd had, she would never have had without it. and she described it as peaks and troughs, didn't she? she's had such an impact on so many people. we don't want that to go with her, really. we want to continue that on her behalf. she wasn't ever angry, she wasn't ever sad,
8:24 am
she never said, "why me?" she just said, "right, well, it is me. so let's make everyone know about it. let's make a difference. let's take this and turn it into something good." we really should say a huge thank you to nicola and laura's sister gracie for doing that interview. it is so raw, what they are going to at the moment, and they are passionate that some good can come out of this, the messaging. i remember very vividly the three of them, laura, nicola and gracie sitting right here, talking about what they were going through and that list of things she wanted to do which everyone engaged with and got so involved in. it's a wonderful message. and we very much wish them well in these days immediately after her death. time now to get the news,
8:25 am
travel and weather where you are. hello, good morning from bbc london. workers at tourist attractions and other sites across london will strike today in a dispute over pay. 900 workers employed by the city of london corporation who are members of the gmb union will walk out for 24 hours. they'll be picketing at locations including the barbican centre, tower bridge and the old bailey. a city of london corporation spokesperson said this year's pay award gave all full—time employees at least £2,300 extra, and addressed the "challenges staff face in the fairest way possible" meanwhile security guards at heathrow airport are staging a fresh three day strike over pay. members of the unite union have already held 15 days of industrial action there, including over easter. the airport says it has contingency plans in place, and expects a smooth half—term getaway for passengers. rail investigators say they'll be looking at an incident
8:26 am
at clapham common tube station where passengers smashed windows to get out of the carriages after thinking there was a fire. they'll look at london underground's procedures as well as brake maintenance to try and improve safety. and the v&a museum's new photography centre opens today. it'll be the largest permanent space dedicated to photography in the uk with seven galleries. four will showcase the museum's world—leading work and its diverse histories. one london artist is very excited to be a part of it. incredible to be actually in the centre of this new photography centre, to have people coming in and seeing this. i think making it more accessible, because the art world in the world of ai are both not hugely accessible, so to bring it into a space like this is a really exciting moment. let's take a look at the tubes now. there's a good service on the tubes this morning.
8:27 am
just minor delays on the and waterloo & city lines. now onto the weather with elizabeth rizzini. good morning. high pressure will keep us dry and settled as we head through the rest of this week, the bank holiday weekend and indeed much of next week, too. but there will be subtle differences day on day in terms of cloud, sunshine and temperature. yesterday was beautiful, lots of sunshine around and plenty of blue sky but today it is cloudier and cooler. we are starting with plenty of cloud and its been blowing in on the north—east wind, from the north sea, so it's cloudy, fairly mild and we will keep the cloud through the morning then it will start to break up into the afternoon. to leave us with lots of sunshine, potentially, by the time we get to the end of the day. temperatures lower than they were yesterday and there is still that noticeable north—easterly blowing. as we head through the evening and overnight with the clear skies it will feel chillier than last night. friday, a strengthening north—easterly wind and lots of blue sky and sunshine around again. temperatures a little lower than they were yesterday but they will start to recover over

8:35 am
in truly spectacular fashion. just look at this from 19 year old julio enciso. a goal of the season contender? a finish like that, worthy of a little jig. brighton held on for the draw to trigger great scenes down on the south coast but also delighted was the city manager, and these were the scenes in the brighton dressing room afterwards. there's the main man, the inspirtational manager roberto de zerbi joining in a bit of free from desire. what a season, what a model way to run a club. the future, i don't know, the policy of these players, i think they deserve to play in another level, but we have to be ready to bring another big players, because we will play four competitions, the europa league. the premier league will be more tough and we have to be ready. aberdeen sealed third place in the scottish premiership last night. they beat st mirren 3—0, and it means they're guaranteed european group stage football of some sort. next season hearts needed to win
8:36 am
at rangers to take the race for third into he final match of the season, but they could only draw 2—2. substitute garang kuol scored a stoppage—time equaliser. hearts need to avoid defeat in their final match to earn fourth and a place in the europa conference league qualifiers. dundee united are on the brink of relegation following a 3—0 defeat at home to kilmarnock. they'll have to win their last game against motherwell, hope ross county lose and overturn a goal difference of minus eight to stay up. all the home nations, wales, scotland, northern ireland and england resume their euro 2024 qualifying campaign in mid june. and we are starting to see the squads being announced starting with england and manager gareth southgate has told brentford's ivan toney he can still be involved in next summers euros. toney was banned for eight months by the football association after admitting over 200 betting offences. he can't play football again untiljanuary17th next year.
8:37 am
what bothers me is we have to look after people and he's injured at the moment, so what does he do about getting fit? i don't think that's how it should work and i don't think that is the best rehabilitation programmes would work like that, but he knows we picked him because we felt until there was a charge, he should be allowed to play and when he comes back, if he plays well we will pick him. with four stages to go, britain's geraint thomas remains in control as he tries to win his first giro d'italia title. stage 17 had a finish to remember as alberto dainese, jonathan milan, and michael matthews all crossed the line together. a photo finish showing dainese just edged it. thomas finished in the peloton, meaning he keeps his 18 second lead and retains the leaders pinkjersey.

8:42 am
graham, good morning to you. for some people today, they will have been watching back some of her amazing performances. give us your insight. you were there, on tour with her, give us a sense of what it was like being in the room when she took to the stage with that extraordinary explosion of energy? well, she was fantastic. she was the queen— well, she was fantastic. she was the queen of— well, she was fantastic. she was the queen of rock and roll and the energy— queen of rock and roll and the energy and the performance from her was always _ energy and the performance from her was always top class. she never did a bad _ was always top class. she never did a bad gig _ was always top class. she never did a bad gig it — was always top class. she never did a bad gig. it was incredible. and a hard _ a bad gig. it was incredible. and a hard worker. i mean, one of there was an— hard worker. i mean, one of there was an hundred and 34 shows on one

8:44 am
computers and fairlight and synthesisers and she was astonished by that but what was clear was that she had prepared meticulously for her performance, so it's notjust a matter, and right from the opening words, we were going, oh, my goodness, this is going to be something for the ages as a cover version. she had this talent for communicating as though it was just one person on the other side of the speakers or on the radio, or whatever. everybody felt an immediate human connection with tina and her energy and her love was tempered by this kind of active approach to the way... she could cover the entire range of emotions from kind of delicate to incredibly energetic and everything in between.
8:45 am
i think a lot of people are thinking today about not just the performance of voice or what she did on stage, it's her life story, and i don't know how much you knew about it when you met her in those times, but there are so many connections people make with that about what she overcame in her life.— make with that about what she overcame in her life. when we were meetin: overcame in her life. when we were meeting to — overcame in her life. when we were meeting to discuss _ overcame in her life. when we were meeting to discuss which _ overcame in her life. when we were meeting to discuss which tracks i overcame in her life. when we were meeting to discuss which tracks to i meeting to discuss which tracks to do, she was staying at a house in holland park which had a walled garden and they had to have guards to stop ike turner climbing over the wall to get to tina to get money off for whatever purpose you wanted. so it was still an issue, even though at that point, and the way she dealt with it, and people don't talk enough about her buddhist beliefs. she was very calm and kind and beautiful, and a lot of people could have crumbled under that pressure and she dealt with it with grace and

8:48 am
recreations of you. is it a gamble that paid off? yes, most certainly, yes. well, artistically, definitely. why do you say artistically definitely? because we achieved more than we could have hoped for. seeing the first preview, and realising that the audience actually connected to what was on there, not like we were watching a movie, but as if we were actually there. where do you want to take the show next? maybe one replica in north america, maybe one in asia. there are talks, but nothing tangible yet. i have to say i would like to go to australia. it would feel good to come back there and say thank you, australia, for supporting us from day one. which artists or bands have been to the show do you know?
8:49 am
lots of them. i know that barry gibb has been there. there must be lots of them thinking, "wow, can i do this?" do you think it would be a different experience if it was amy winehouse, whitney houston or prince? tricky, right? how do you deal with that, because everybody knows they are not around any more, so what would they say themselves about doing this? we can say yes or no to everything. let mejust come round here. so this is chatgpt, which obviously you will know about. if i put in "write a song in the style of abba"... ok, verse one. # i thought i had it all with you by my side # but then you walked away and my heartjust died. # i search for you in every crowd, i hear you calling out my name. # but you're not there, it's so unfair.
8:50 am
# i'm lost in this endless game. i would say that's crap. # waterloo # i was defeated, you won the war... eurovision will be here in sweden next year. 50 years, as you know, you don't need me to remind you, since you won it with waterloo. there is already a clamour for the four of you to reunite on stage, in person, not the avatars. you want to make a bet? are you considering it? no. seriously? seriously, no, no way. why? well, i don't want to and if i don't want to, they won't go. it's the same for all four of us. someone says no, it's a no. and, yes, that's how it will work. you want to go? no, no, no, no.
8:51 am
i don't think so. we could celebrate 50 years of abba without us being on stage. so you definitely won't get on stage to sing, but would you walk on stage together, the four of you? not me. so that means... so, that's a no then. no in capital letters. just not happening- _ that was victoria derbyshire interviewing benny and bjorn. you can watch the full interview on newsnight, which is on bbc two at half—past ten tonight. it will also be on the bbc iplayer. we have a legendary lionness in the studio — jill scott, who won 161 england caps and helped her team to lift the euros trophy last year. you probably had a few singalongs over years, celebration songs. what were the to numbers?—
