more sunshine around today, especially for eastern areas. before full weekend forecast is coming up here and breakfast. it's friday 2nd june. our main story. the former this morning presenter phillip schofield says he has "lost everything", after admitting to lying about an affair with a young colleague. in his first interview since resigning from itv, mr schofield says he desperately regrets the relationship, but insists it was consensual and he strenuously denies claims that he groomed the man. he's been speaking to our media editor amol rajan. come on in. good to see you. thank you. phillip schofield granted this interview because he wanted to say sorry, he wanted to show contrition, and he wanted to correct some of what he sees as the false narratives in the public domain over the past week. are you feeling 0k to do this? you're feeling strong enough to do this interview? yeah, i have to. schofield described the enormous toll that recent days have taken on him. and it is relentless.

and it is day after day after day after day. and if you do that, if you don't think that that is going to have the most catastrophic effect on someone�*s mind... what do you... do you want me to die? because that's where i am. i have lost...everything. schofield says he is extremely concerned for the welfare of the young man with whom he had an extramarital affair. there is an innocent person here who didn't do anything wrong. who is...vulnerable... ..and probably feels like i do. and... ijust have to say... ..stop with him.

ok, with me. but stop with him. leave him alone now. on the central question of whether or not he groomed this young man, schofield is emphatic in his denial. it was a totally innocent picture, a totally innocent twitter follow — of which i follow 11,400 people — and...and then it was a completely innocent backwards—and—forwards over a period of time about a job, about careers. you know? imean... you do that... what's — what's wrong with that? what's wrong with talking to someone no matter, you know, what age they are? does that mean that if — you know, if you are... if you're following anyone on twitter that you absolutely don't talk to anybody else or you don't give advice? attention will now turn to the culture of this morning, and specifically whether or not itv bosses handled it appropriately. dame carolyn mccall, the boss of itv, is due to be questioned by mps next week. amol rajan, bbc news.

we'll have more from amol rajan�*s interview with phillip schofield later in the programme. a man in his 405, who had been arrested on suspicion of manslaughter following the deaths of two young people in bournemouth, has been released under investigation. a 12—year—old girl and a 17—year—old boy died after being pulled from the sea off bournemouth pier on wednesday. jenny kumah is there for us this morning. good for us this morning. morning. what more do we kn now? good morning. what more do we know now? ~ , ., , ., , now? well, people have been left feelin: now? well, people have been left feeling shocked, _ now? well, people have been left feeling shocked, saddened - now? well, people have been left feeling shocked, saddened and i now? well, people have been left feeling shocked, saddened and in | feeling shocked, saddened and in disbelief, with questions around how this could have happened. and yesterday the police moved to stamp out speculation. they said that this didn't involve a vessel, didn't involve jet skis and didn't involve anyonejumping off the pier. the full facts have not been established but what we have been told is that around liz30pm on wednesday, a

massive rescue operation was launched after ten people struggling in the sea. people came to the rescue, there were police, ambulance, lifeguards, and eight people were taken from the scene, they were treated at the scene. two people were taken to hospital and later died. the police said yesterday they gave a bit more detail about those two people, they wear a 12—year—old girl from buckinghamshire, and a 17—year—old boy from southampton. a man in his 40s was arrested soon after the incident but police said yesterday that he had been released under investigation. looking ahead to the weekend, there will be police presence, there will be council staff and more lifeguards, and they will be there for public reassurance but also as a point of contact for anyone who wants to come forward with information.— with information. thank you very much, with information. thank you very much. jenny _ with information. thank you very much, jenny kumah _ with information. thank you very much, jenny kumah in _ with information. thank you very - much, jenny kumah in bournemouth.

a 15—year—old girl has also died after getting into difficulty while swimming in a reservoir with friends in merseyside. emergency services were called to carr mill dam in st helens yesterday lunchtime after reports of a girl in distress. her death is not being treated as suspicious but police are appealing for witnesses to contact them. scientists say they're excited by the results of a trial of a blood test which can detect 50 different types of cancers. a study led by oxford university found it was able to correctly identify two thirds of cancers among 5,000 people who went to their gp with suspected symptoms. here's our medical editor fergus walsh. a blood test which could detect cancer and rule it out with very high accuracy would be revolutionary. this test has been developed by californian company grail. it can detect tiny fragments of cancerous dna in the bloodstream, which have broken off from a tumour. the trial involved more than 5,000 patients from england and wales

who'd gone to their gp with suspected cancer symptoms. a positive blood test result meant the patient was likely to have cancer. tumours were confirmed 75% of the time. a negative test meant cancer was very unlikely, but did not rule it out completely. where cancer was correctly found, the test was able to pinpoint its origin in the body in 85% of cases. the oxford professor who led the trial, and is presenting the results at a conference in chicago, says the blood test is still a work in progress — but its ability to pinpoint the type of cancer is exciting. 85% of the time, when we found a cancer, it told us where that cancer was. so in future we could use the test accurately to get the right invasive investigational stem first

time and speed up diagnosis. you'll only know if you were in the test group if the test detects potential signs of cancer. often, cancer patients present with only vague symptoms like unexpected weight loss orabdominal pain — so the blood test could help spare them unnecessary investigations. a major trial of the grail test is under way across the nhs — 140,000 healthy volunteers are having annual blood tests to see whether it can detect potential signs of cancer. the first results are due next year. fergus walsh, bbc news. labour has suspended mp geraint davies pending an investigation into reports of "incredibly serious allegations of completely unacceptable behaviour". the swansea west mp will have the whip removed in westminster. labour is carrying out its own investigation into the claims made against mr davies, who said he did not

recognise the allegations. in an unprecedented move, the government is planning legal action against the covid inquiry and will seek a judicial review to try to block the release of borisjohnson�*s unredacted private messages and diaries. the cabinet office missed a deadline yesterday afternoon to disclose everything between mrjohnson and his advisers during the pandemic. mrjohnson said he would be "more than happy" to hand over the uncensored material. the rmt union says it regrets the inconvenience caused by its latest strike today, but that the dispute will continue until it has a fair deal. it means many operators will only have a limited service, and there's another strike by train drivers in the aslef union planned for tomorrow. ministers say they've made fair and reasonable pay offers. here's our transport correspondent katy austin. it's the second of three strike days this week on the railway. today it's rail workers in the rmt union —

such as train guards and station staff. tomorrow, thousands of train drivers in the aslef union — that means travel to a number of big events, including the fa cup final, is being disrupted. for rail passengers, it all adds up to more frustration. i've got to get the coach back on saturday, which is an absolute pain. er... yeah. so it's taken a lot of time out the weekend and means i can't stay as long. previously we were travelling by train quite a lot, but it's made us a little bit nervous about making bookings, hasn't it? yeah. because it did — quite a few different events where we had to cancel or make other arrangements. i mean, everyone — everyone's in the same boat, no—one's — i haven't had a pay rise for many years, but it's just — it's having a knock—on effect on people now and i think people are just getting a bit fed up with it. i think the government need to do something about it and actually listen to what the union, as well, and what people are saying. after nearly a year of strikes, the rmt dispute is once again at a standstill. hopes that members at the 1a train companies involved might get a vote on a new offer came to nothing

in april, when the union rejected the industry's latest proposals. they included a 5% pay rise for one year and li% the next, dependent on agreeing changes to ways of working at individual operators. the rmt says it regrets the inconvenience caused by more action. we wouldn't be calling 20,000 members out today without a good reason. this is over 20 times now we've done this, and our members are losing a lot of money and there's an inconvenience caused. we have to pursue the dispute until we have a fair the rail delivery group has accused rmt negotiators and leaders of being at odds with each other. they and the government describe the proposals on the table as fair. both sides insist they're open to more talks, although none are currently in the diary. without a breakthrough, an end to these strikes could still be a long way away. katy austin, bbc news. president biden has tripped and fallen over at a graduation ceremony for the us air force academy in colorado. mr biden, who's 80, had been

season. moderate to high pollen levels across much of england and wales. tonight, with clearer skies to begin, it will be very nippy across the country. because he temperatures down into lower in single figures through some parts of england, especially, and east wales, 3 or [i england, especially, and east wales, 3 or 11 degrees. a little less cold in the of scotland, more cloud here. the cloud may the shower tomorrow, as it will in the highlands this afternoon, but most will have a sunny saturday. a bit of patchy cloud close to the east coast later but a big improvement on recent days and tomorrow will feel a touch warmer than today. as for sunday, some of the low cloud returns to eastern coasts. still some sunny breaks in hull but for many the sunshine continues.— breaks in hull but for many the sunshine continues. thanks, see you later. we're going to hear more of the interview with phillip schofield — who's been speaking for the first time since leaving itv. he left the broadcaster last week after admitting that he lied about an affair with a younger colleague — who he strenuously

denies grooming — and he says one of his reasons for doing this interview is to try and protect the man. he's been speaking to our media editor amol rajan. what specifically do you feel that you did that was wrong? ..kissed someone in the workplace, which led on to a little bit more. and that, retrospectively, of course, you know, you think... my friends have said, "what the hell were you thinking? you don't do that. you've never done that." and i think — there's no excuse. i'm not — i don't put any — there are no excuses here. imean, i... i have, i am... it's my fault, but... ..i think the fact that perhaps i was trying to come to terms with who i was...

..what i was going to do about it, the effects that it would have. i think that's probably the reason. and do you feel — just listening to how you talk about it — do you feel that what was morally wrong about it was that it involved an abuse of power, because you were an older guy who had more power than him? obviously, that criticism has been levelled at me, but... well, i've never done that in my whole life. i've never abused my power anywhere. i'm not a bully. i don't — i mean, there are... god, you read the things that you're supposed to be. you know, i don't lord it around tv studios. everyone is a friend. it's been important for me to, erm, be part of a team. i love teamwork, i love, i love... the this morning family are so supportive and so kind

and so loving, i felt safe there because everyone was so kind. it's been said that the sun had a story, they were approached in, ithink, november2019, by the journalist dan wootton, who said he had the story that you were in a relationship with this young man — or had been in a relationship and the sun knew about it. but there's a claim now, which i want to invite you to address, that the sun knew both things. they knew you were gay and they knew you'd had a relationship with this young man, but they decided not to do the story about you and the young man in return for the exclusive about you coming out. oh, god, no. no, no, no. no! no. absolutely categorically untrue. so let me put directly what dan wootton says so that you can debunk if you wish to. dan wootton said — he now works for gb news — "a decision had been made for the newspaper to have a closer relationship with itv.

and as part of that closer relationship, they were offered" — the sun was offered — "ringside seats and an exclusive interview for this coming—out announcement. as a result, obviously, they — the sun — wouldn't run a story about the young runner. it was prompted by philip." that is categorically untrue. and i've got to say, there are a great many things that have been said that are categorically untrue. now, i have, you know, i have nothing against dan, but he also alleges that i got him fired from lorraine. categorically untrue. and that is, i think, the foundation of his utter, total hatred of me. you can't do it. there is no way that any presenter on one show can get a contributor fired from another because they don't like the fact they're, whatever, in the building. it's not possible. not even phillip schofield? no! i have no — no power in there. i don't know where this came from, that i have more power than anybody else.

there is that, that — you know, bless dan — there is a lot of things that i think are said out of hatred for me. and now i've actually brought myself down. to a far, far greater degree than you could ever have done, i have brought myself down. i am done. erm, i have to talk about television in the past tense. which breaks my heart. but it continues. and it is relentless. and it is day after day, after day after day. and if you do that, if you don't think that that is going to have the most catastrophic effect on someone's mind... what do you — do you want me to die? because that's where i am. i have lost everything.

my girls saved my life. they said, last week, they haven't left me for a moment. they've been by my side every moment because they're scared to let me out of their sight. if my girls hadn't been there, i wouldn't be here, because i don't see a future. when did you last speak to holly willoughby? i whatsapp—ed her on the day that i put the statement up and i said to her, erm, "i know you can't reply. you're probably not allowed to. but please know that i am so desperately, desperately sorry." did she reply? no. how would you characterise your relationship with her now? is it broken?

ah, i adore holly. i mean, i've always adored holly. she's my tv sister. and i, from my point of view, no, i—i—i... i don't have a problem with holly at all. what would you say to her, given that she's doubtless listening to you now? what would you say to her about, maybe publicly that you said privately, about how you'd like to apologise, and your hopes for mending that relationship? i would say to everyone... i would say to my family, my friends, my work colleagues, the public, to itv, to my management company, to everyone that i lied to, i am desperately, desperately sorry. but principally i would

like to apologise to him, because it may have been consensual, may have been fully legal, but i shouldn't have allowed it to happen. and that was a grave, grave error on my part. and i know that because of that, an absolutely innocent person is being persecuted. there are a lot of lies on social media, and there are a lot of lies about you. but i've got to ask, there are people who'd say, given he lied, and lied in the past, why should we believe him today? well, only my friends and family need to worry about that, because i don't — you don't have to worry about what i say any more. i'd just be saying that to the garden. you've been dropped as ambassador to the prince's trust. did that hurt? broke my heart.

i can't remember how long i've been there. do you feel a victim in all this? no. i feel a victim of hate, after the event. and i think probably there will be a lot of people watching this thinking, "how dare you?" it would be easier for me to say i don't feel like a victim. what i feel a victim of is...spun areas of non—factual information and gossip and nastiness. but... ..i don't look any more. i...have already told you how i feel. and... ..i'm not in television any more. i don't know what i am, even remotely, if i get through this — if i get through this — i don't know

even remotely how i move forward. i don't... what am i going to do? what am i going to do with my days? i see nothing ahead of me, but... ..blackness and sadness, and regret and remorse, and guilt. i did something very wrong. and then i lied about it — consistently lied about it. and you can't live with that. how do you live with that? phillip schofield, thank you so much for your time. thanks. the full interview is available on bbc iplayer, and we'll bring you more throughout the programme. and if you've been affected by any of the issues raised in that interview, you can find organisations offering

help and support on the bbc action line website, just search bbc.co.uk/actionline. still to come on breakfast... after weeks of intense culinary challenges, the masterchef finalists went head—to—head in a cook—off last night, serving the best three—course meal of their lives — but who claimed the prestigious title? we'll speak to the winner just before nine. time now to get the news, travel and weather where you are. good morning from bbc london with me, alison earle. if you're travelling by train it's likely to be a difficult few days, as rail workers are on strike for the second time this week. members of the rmt are walking out today in their dispute

over pay and conditions, while aslef train drivers are taking action tomorrow. unions say it wasn't timed to coincide with major events, including the fa cup final at wembley. we're just looking for a reasonable package for our members, which involves them getting a pay rise. they haven't had one for nearly to four years. having security to know they're not going to be made redundant, which is of course what happened to our entire membership who worked for p&o. they were all sacked by email. and not have their contracts ripped up to enable the employer to have productivity. so that's very much what we're pursuing, and we're going to continue to do this. the department for transport said, "the government has facilitated a fair and reasonable pay offer." animal rights activists say they still plan to disrupt the epsom derby tomorrow, despite a high court injunction. thejockey club, which owns the course, said it accepts the right to peaceful protest, but fears it could be a danger.

it's offered the group animal rising an area to demonstrate. it's now 75 years since the ship empire windrush arrived at tilbury docks, and events are being held to mark the anniversary. it brought hundreds of skilled workers from the caribbean to britain to help rebuild after the war. alfred was among them. he's been telling us about his life here. i've lived here all these years. i've raised a beautifulfamily. oh, god, what a beautifulfamily. and the only thing i haven't got is money. that's all i haven't got! travel now, and this is how the tube is looking. now onto the weather with sara. good morning to you. it's been a pretty tricky week of weather this week. because yes, it's been dry and settled, but obviously at times it's been really cloudy and quite cool under that cloud. we've still got cloud first thing this morning. it came again overnight.

but it clears much more readily this morning. into this afternoon, a lot of sunshine across london and the south—east — for most of us, actually. maybe just a little bit here and there along the coasts. temperatures once more in the high teens, if not low 20s. what we have at the moment is high pressure towards the north of the uk. the winds in a clockwise direction. that has been giving us that east, north—easterly wind. that is a pattern that will continue into the weekend. however, it looks like we have less cloud again for tomorrow. we start with a lot of clear weather tomorrow morning. we keep the sunshine through the day across the capital and the wider east and south—east. just a bit of fair weather cloud in the afternoon. temperatures in the best of it into the low 20s celsius. this weather pattern shows no signs of change into next week. there will be some cloud around at times through the early part of next week, but we are dry. there's more on our website, including the rare orchid now in bloom at kew garden. i'm back in half an hour.

hello, this is breakfast with charlie stayt and naga munchetty. as much as the british love a plate of fish and chips, the rising prices might not taste so good. the cost of a takeaway has gone up nearly 20% in the year to march. hannah is in blackpool for us today to find out what's driving the increase. even for me it might be a little early forfish and even for me it might be a little early for fish and chips, but it is a favourite of so many people and these price rises will pinch? yeah, it probably is a bit early, isn't it? but it is fish and chip friday, after all. today is national fish and chip day. dominic iorfa is already working hard. we are going to be chatting to him injust a second. first, let's look at those price rises and how they have been affecting the industry as a whole.

the cost of a portion of fish and chips has gone up 19% in the past year. if you were to come here now for a portion on average it would cost you about £9. the daily rise they are facing at the moment is in they are facing at the moment is in the cost, actually, of the potatoes, the cost, actually, of the potatoes, the bit that she would really expect to be the cheap part of the meal. they have gone up to £25 a sack, up from £9. here, they are having to temporarily increase their prices for regular customers. we will be chatting about that in just a second. first, yvette austen has been looking... traditionally a cheap staple food, but not so cheap any more. rising energy costs, staff wages and now a jump in the price of potatoes, is creating a challenge for the chippies. we opened about 12 months before lockdown, before the pandemic.

and it's just been one roller—coaster after another, to be honest. estimates suggest a 10% reduction in the amount of land being used to grow potatoes this year. that's a knock on effect of last year's drought. and despite a wet spring this year, the ground is now dry and the growing potatoes are thirsty. extreme weather is bad news for the growers, coupled with the high energy costs. we have had a bigjump in our electricity costs, actually nine times higher in october than it had been in our fixed price contracts from the months before. and also, energy affects fertiliser costs for us as well, and to a lesser extent, transport. over the past decade, its estimated land used for growing potatoes has decreased by around 30%. they are really hard to grow. it's either too wet, - it's too cold, it's too dry. you need the right sort of land.

yeah, so it's difficult. a lot of farmers just are looking at, you know, just saying, - i can't afford to grow. and that's a real shame. yvette austin, bbc news, maidstone. i'm joined now by dominic horabin, who runs seniors fish and chip shop here in blackpool. a daily problem, the rise in the cost of potatoes?— cost of potatoes? yeah, it has cotten cost of potatoes? yeah, it has gotten to _ cost of potatoes? yeah, it has gotten to a — cost of potatoes? yeah, it has gotten to a stage _ cost of potatoes? yeah, it has gotten to a stage now- cost of potatoes? yeah, it has gotten to a stage now where l cost of potatoes? yeah, it has i gotten to a stage now where we cost of potatoes? yeah, it has - gotten to a stage now where we have .one gotten to a stage now where we have gone from _ gotten to a stage now where we have gone from being £8 to £9. at the current_ gone from being £8 to £9. at the current moment it is about £20 to £25 per— current moment it is about £20 to £25 per sack of potatoes. the main part of— £25 per sack of potatoes. the main part of our— £25 per sack of potatoes. the main part of our meal has now gone up to the point _ part of our meal has now gone up to the point where we are having to think_ the point where we are having to think about price increases. we are lucky— think about price increases. we are lucky that_ think about price increases. we are lucky that we have got some amazing loyal customers that will always stick _ loyal customers that will always stick with us. but it has got to change — stick with us. but it has got to change. we have to be able to keep going _ change. we have to be able to keep going for— change. we have to be able to keep going for the future. | change. we have to be able to keep going for the future.— going for the future. i was surprised _ going for the future. i was surprised when _ going for the future. i was surprised when i - going for the future. i was surprised when i saw - going for the future. i was surprised when i saw that | going for the future. i was . surprised when i saw that £25 things. how many portions of chips

match officials. and this is what happened to anthony taylor and his family at budapest airport. here he is in his grey t—shirt, trying to make his way through the airport with his family, people shouting and screaming and hurling abuse. bottles of drink being thrown, scuffles. some security in place with a chair being thrown too, as the family are ushered to safety. the referees' governing body pgmol has issued this statement. they say they are appalled at the unjustified and apparent abuse directed at anthony and his family. among those condeming what happened, the former england captain rio ferdinand had this to say.

we have spoken about this on breakfast. only back in february, the study done with hundreds of grassroots officials saying they fearfor grassroots officials saying they fear for their safety. this is grassroots officials saying they fearfor their safety. this is not just about mourinho and roma. we are seeing it a lot in football. people have their heroes, children dream of playing in the premier league. . and this is the behaviour they are witnessing. something needs to be done about it so it doesn't fall down to grass roots level. so we are not having reports like we had from referees who are struggling with abuse from parents. and it feels like for a lot of young people this is almost normalised. i was watching the full and man united game with my nine and six—year—old nephew. mitchell beach was sent off. he was surrounding the referee. they found it in parts funny. i was trying to give them the message the you cannot do that. they understand that as well. but you see this in

football. the way the parents are acting, the kids suddenly think that is normal. that will not be the last time we have heard of that. that's the fallout from the europa league final. there are other major trophies to be won across the next week, which includes tomorrow's fa cup final between the premier league champions manchester city and manchester united. erling haaland's scored a record 52 goals this season for city, and says he will do everything to help them win the treble. he's been speaking to our sports editor dan roan. never, ever misses! this man is a sensation. another haaland hat—trick! he's the norwegian super scorer who's taken the premier league by storm. in a remarkable debut season in england, manchester city's erling haaland has established himself as world football's most feared striker. and here at the club's training ground, he told me how he was handling sporting superstardom aged just 22. it's nice. that means i've done something right. my life has changed, of course.

i can't live normal, so normal, any more. and that's something ijust have to admit. and that's how my life is. i can't complain. i like to do a bit crazy kind of stuff, both on and off the pitch. like the silk pyjamas, which seem to be becoming something of a trademark of yours? no, i like to be comfortable wherever i go, and i think i look really good. so that's why i use it, basically. i'm 196 tall and got long blonde hair, so wherever i go, people are going to see me. so that's how my life is. but what can i do? there's nothing i can do. i'm — that's my life. i just have to try to enjoy it as much as i can. when i was young, i wanted to become a professionalfootball and the best in the world. so, eh — and a price comes with that. if you're going to be that, there's certain things you have to do different. you have to live different. you have to do this and that.

and that's just how it is. and, yeah, i'm i'm not complaining. your dream, you say, was to be the best in the world. have you achieved that dream? do you believe you are the best goal—scorer in the world right now? eh, a good question. i don't want to answer that. i think someone else should answer that. but i scored most goals this season, ithink, so, erm, that's a good start. in an astonishing campaign, the prolific haaland has scored 52 goals for his club, including 36 in the premier league, a new record. and haaland does what haaland does. is there something which you can identify as the secret to being such a great goal—scorer? for me, it's about keeping the confidence and i try to never overthink. that's the most difficult thing in this world in 2023. when i score a goal, it's like, oh, this feeling is so nice, i would love to do it again, kind of a feeling. so, eh... it's easy, really. i'm a simple guy. when i do something and i like it, i want to do it more. do you think you can improve?

yeah. from my right foot to my left foot. from the heading. everything. having helped city retain the premier league title haaland's now preparing for the fa cup final against arch rivals manchester united, and then the champions league final. at stake, a first treble since united managed it 2a years ago. because of the history, they will be motivated. it's at wembley. it's a final. there's so many things. it will not be an easy game. so that's what i'm saying. we have to play our game. we have to not to think too much. champions league, i must ask you, is there something about that competition here in manchester, because it's the one that they've so far struggled to achieve? and what would it mean, do you think, to to land it? it would mean everything. this is why they brought me, of course, to the club to get this. we don't have to to hide that. so i will do everything i can, i possibly can, to try to make it happen. and yeah, it's my biggest dream.

and hopefully dreams do come true. one thing that strikes me always about erling haaland, how calm and at ease and joyful he tends to be. we see a lot of young sports people carrying the weight of the world on their shoulders. carrying the weight of the world on theirshoulders. he carrying the weight of the world on their shoulders. he seems to embrace that pressure. and also, silk pyjamas are clearly his thing. there is a whole website dedicated to silk pyjamas and erling haaland. £2000 silk pyjamas. do you own a pair of silk pyjamas. do you own a pair of silk pyjamas, charlie? no, i don't. silk pyjamas, charlie? no, idon't. but silk pyjamas, charlie? no, i don't. but something is working. he is a happy man. sleeping well is very important. wearing silk pyjamas in public at times, i guess if you scored 52 goals in a season, you are top of the world, where what you like, including silk pyjamas. if i had silk pyjamas i would be

wearing them every day! thank you. matt, i'm not even going to ask the question. because i know the answer. i've seen you prance around in them! good morning. around in them! good morninu. , ., good morning. oh, you tell good morninu. good morning. oh, you tell good morning- it's _ good morning. oh, you tell good morning. it's a _ good morning. oh, you tell good morning. it's a bit _ good morning. oh, you tell good morning. it's a bit chilly - good morning. oh, you tell good morning. it's a bit chilly out - good morning. oh, you tell good| morning. it's a bit chilly out there overnight. good morning. but look at this. lovely sunny start towards the west again, in west wales, in gwynedd, opposite side of the country along the north sea coast, skegness, grey skies. if you're wondering if you are in one of those areas where it has been grey and cool areas where it has been grey and cool, why it has been so persistent, well, it is all down to what has been happening. a big area of high pressure towards the west. it has not been moving. it has been dragging up some moisture laden air from the mid—atlantic. as that has worked around the northern edge, it has gone through some pretty cold seas, especially the north sea command that has allowed the moisture to form cloud. that has

pushed its way inland on some pretty strong winds along the edge of this area of high pressure. that is why the strong winds, with the cloud higher in the sky, it has been a struggle for the sun to break it up. that is why it has persisted all day long, especially in these. a couple of small changes today and tomorrow. those winds, instead of coming around the top of the uk, they are coming from the west of norway. it does mean slightly chilly air. notice on the satellite image they speak area of no cloud. it is going to be something working southwards. they should be more sunshine. plenty of cloud to begin with across much of cloud to begin with across much of england, wales, central scotland. breaks in the north—east of scotland where there is a touch of frost around. notice how those breaks in the cloud, those clearer skies, start to work their way in across much of eastern england. it will be a struggle through parts of east anglia, the south—east and towards the english channel. elsewhere, more sunshine. more cloud across the

highlands of scotland. outside chance of a light shower. along the eastern coast, not as cool as it has been. furtherwest, eastern coast, not as cool as it has been. further west, temperatures not as high as they have been. still pleasant enough in the strong sunshine. just about all of us will be under strong sunshine, high v —— uv levels this afternoon. those clear skies in place for the end of the day. patchy cloud towards the east and a0. it means those clear skies will lead to a much colder night widely across the country. temperatures around nine to 10 degrees. into tomorrow morning, some rural areas will be three to four celsius. it will be a chilly one. as we go into saturday, a lot more sunshine from the start. still some patches of cloud close to eastern coast coming and going. more cloud in northern scotland. on the hills the outside chance of a shower. for most, a sunny saturday. a little bit warmer as well. even down the eastern coast. in the west, warmer than today. as we go into sunday,

high pressure changes position. we start to bring the cloud around it. more forming over the north sea. it means parts of north east and scotland, eastern england, may start off grey. a lot of that will break. we are not expecting it to drive as far westwards this time as in recent days. still a fair bit of sunshine around on sunday. pleasant and of the strong sunshine. as you go into next week it does look like that luke clout will return to eastern coast again. for the luke clout will return to eastern coast a-ain. for the next luke clout will return to eastern coast again. for the luke clout will return to eastern coast a-ain. for the next few luke clout will return to eastern coast again. for the luke clout will return to eastern coast a-ain. for the next few days luke clout will return to eastern coast again. for the luke clout will return to eastern coast a-ain. for the next few days a coast again. for the next few days a lot more sunshine. it is like the it's teasing us. it is indeed. and dry as well, i should say. is indeed. and dry as well, i should sa . ., ~' is indeed. and dry as well, i should sa . ., ~ is indeed. and dry as well, i should sa . . ~ ., say. thank you. the weather will remember _ say. thank you. the weather will remember to _ say. thank you. the weather will remember to the _ say. thank you. the weather will remember to the event - say. thank you. the weather will remember to the event we - say. thank you. the weather will remember to the event we are i say. thank you. the weather will - remember to the event we are going to now. you might remember the orange and red bbc hot air balloon from the late 905. even though it has 20 years ago, if you remember it you will never forget it. it has now been restored.

it is on display at the midlands air festival, where fiona lamdin is. she is somewhere. there it is. to this day i still remember it beautifully. i'm so glad it is back up. is it remember it beautifully. i'm so glad it is back up— it is back up. is it in the air yet? good morning. _ it is back up. is it in the air yet? good morning. it _ it is back up. is it in the air yet? good morning. it is _ it is back up. is it in the air yet? good morning. it is tethered - it is back up. is it in the air yet? good morning. it is tethered to | it is back up. is it in the air yet? . good morning. it is tethered to this basket. they have just got the burner going. they is the first time it has been on public view for more than 20 years. it is gorgeous when they keep putting that burner on because i can tell you it is quite cold. forthe because i can tell you it is quite cold. for the first time in 20 years she is out of the bag, she is in public view, and i have been taking a look back at how she got here. it was the defining image on bbc one for almost five years. between 97 and 2002, a real balloon, with over 100 hours of flying time and many more of airtime, filmed in 30 different locations,

including the scottish highlands, snowdonia, and grey abbey in northern ireland. in 2000, the bbc wanted the balloon to become more inclusive. so it was filmed with skateboarders, a carnival, and even a bungeejumper. but eventually, in 2002, it was time for it to retire. it has had 100 hours of flying time. and breakfast�*s very ownjon kay was on the last flight with its pilot james mossman. being on bbc one wasjust, something that had never been done before. and 21 years ago, it was put into a big bag, which was put into storage and completely forgotten about. until now. a friend of ours in north bristol said he had a shape for us, for our collection, to look after. and when we went to collect

that he said he had another two and the bbc one is part of it. what did you think? well, it's quite surreal, because when i was a child i remember it on telly, seeing the bbc idents and stuff. to have it there in your garage is quite surreal. and for the last four months these bristol brothers have been restoring it. hundreds of stitches around the mouth, cleaning and painting. red tends to fade a bit, more than any other colour. if you were to put this bottom half of the envelope through a grab test, which is an mot pretty much for balloons, i reckon it would pass easy. 26 years ago were all these clouds hand—painted? yes. they would have had staff. i don't have many they'd use, but they would have hand—painted every single cloud in this envelope. nowadays they use digital printing. so painting is long gone now. and as the paint dries, the globe is ready for inflation.

and finally, after two decades she is filled with air again, as she gets ready to meet her public. well, this morning we have james with us. the original pilot you saw in the piece 20 years ago. good morning. these two are having the most wonderful catch up because i have not seen each other for two decades. where do we start? initially mark you are telling me it was just going to be a computer—generated design? wasjust going to be a computer-generated design? wasjust going to be a com - uter- . enerated desi . n? ., computer-generated design? yeah, in the late 1990s, _ computer-generated design? yeah, in the late 1990s, when _ computer-generated design? yeah, in the late 1990s, when (g! _ computer-generated design? yeah, in the late 1990s, when (6! first - computer-generated design? yeah, in the late 1990s, when (61 first came i the late 1990s, when cgi first came along, _ the late 1990s, when cgi first came along, the — the late 1990s, when cgi first came along, the whole idea was they were going _ along, the whole idea was they were going to _ along, the whole idea was they were going to monetise this on top of some _ going to monetise this on top of some images. but it didn't really work _ some images. but it didn't really work the — some images. but it didn't really work. the technology wasn't there. they said. — work. the technology wasn't there. they said, can we do it as a real one? _ they said, can we do it as a real one? we — they said, can we do it as a real one? we said, of course we can. here we are.

that would be marvellous if she could. and they seem so serene, but actually very noisy. well done. we heard all of that over that nice. it was fabulous. great shot. still to come on breakfast... queen of the kitchen disco — sophie ellis—bextor will be here to chat about her new music and performing on the pyramid stage at glastonbury later this month. time now to get the news, travel and weather where you are. hello, good morning from bbc london, i'm alison earle. if you're travelling by train it's likely to be a difficult few days as rail workers are on strike — for the second time this week. members of the rmt are walking out

today in their dispute over pay and conditions, while aslef train drivers are taking action tomorrow. unions say it wasn't timed to coincide with major events including the fa cup final at wembley. we're just looking for a reasonable package for our members, which involves them getting a pay rise. they haven't had one for nearly to four years. having security to know they're not going to be made redundant, which is of course what happened to our entire membership who worked for p&o. they were all sacked by email. and not have their contracts ripped up to enable the employer to have productivity. so that's very much what we're pursuing, and we're going to continue to do this. the department for transport said, "the government has facilitated a fair and reasonable pay offer." animal—rights activists say they still plan to disrupt the epsom derby tomorrow, despite a high court injunction. the jockey club, which owns the course, said it accepts the right to peaceful protest, but fears it could be a danger. it's offered the group animal rising

an area to demonstrate. it's now 75 years since the ship empire windrush arrived at tilbury docks — and events are being held to mark the anniversary. it brought hundreds of skilled workers from the carribean to britain — to help rebuild after the war. alfred was among them. he's been telling us about his life here. i've lived here all these years. i've raised a beautifulfamily. oh, god, what a beautifulfamily. and the only thing i haven't got is money. that's all i haven't got! travel now, and this is how the tube is looking. there are minor delays on the piccadilly line between rayners lane and south harrow. now onto the weather with sara. good morning to you. it's been a pretty tricky week of weather this week. because yes, it's been dry and settled, but obviously at times it's been really cloudy and quite cool under that cloud.

we've still got cloud first thing this morning. it came again overnight. but it clears much more readily this morning. into this afternoon, a lot of sunshine across london and the south—east — for most of us, actually. maybe just a little bit here and there along the coasts. temperatures once more in the high teens, if not low 20s. what we have at the moment is high pressure towards the north of the uk. the winds in a clockwise direction. that has been giving us that east, north—easterly wind. that is a pattern that will continue into the weekend. however, it looks like we have less cloud again for tomorrow. we start with a lot of clear weather tomorrow morning. we keep the sunshine through the day across the capital and the wider east and south—east. just a bit of fair weather cloud in the afternoon. temperatures in the best of it into the low 20s celsius. this weather pattern shows no signs of change into next week. there will be some cloud around at times through the early part of next week, but we are dry. there's more on our website, including the orchid that's flowered for the first time in the uk.

that's it — i'm back in half an hour. good morning, you're watching breakfast with charlie stayt and naga munchetty. our headlines today. in his first interview since resigning from itv, phillip schofield says he feels nothing but sadness and regret, and denies that he groomed a younger colleague. i did something very wrong... ..and then i lied about it. consistently lied about it. and you can't live with that — how do you live with that?

the form presenter speaks about his relationship with holly willoughby and the end of his itv career as he gives his side of the story. question remain over the deaths of two children off bournemouth beach, as a man who was arrested on suspicion of manslaughter is released under investigation. scientists say they are excited about the trial of a blood test which can detect 50 different types of cancer. good morning from epsom at the start of the two—day derby festival, the pinnacle of the flat racing season, the two big challenges for organisers are the threat of protests and rail strikes. we will find out what plans have been put in place. unjustified and abhorrent — those are the words of the referees governing body, as match official anthony taylor and his family are abused by roma fans as they try to make their way home from the europa league

final in budapest. it may be grey for the majority but they will be more sunshine over the next couple of days. i will have the full we can forecast here and breakfast. it's friday 2nd june. our main story. the former this morning presenter phillip schofield says he has "lost everything", after admitting to lying about an affair with a young colleague. in his first interview since resigning from itv, mr schofield says he desperately regrets the relationship, but insists it was consensual and he strenuously denies claims that he groomed the man. he's been speaking to our media editor amol rajan. come on in. good to see you. thank you. phillip schofield granted this interview because he wanted to say sorry, he wanted to show contrition, and he wanted to correct some of what he sees as the false narratives in the public domain over the past week. are you feeling ok to do this? you're feeling strong enough to do this interview? yeah, i have to.

schofield described the enormous toll that recent days have taken on him. and it is relentless. and it is day after day after day after day. and if you do that, if you don't think that that is going to have the most catastrophic effect on someone's mind... what do you... do you want me to die? because that's where i am. i have lost...everything. schofield says he is extremely concerned for the welfare of the young man with whom he had an extramarital affair. there is an innocent person here who didn't do anything wrong. who is...vulnerable... ..and probably feels like i do. and...

ijust have to say... ..stop with him. ok, with me. but stop with him. leave him alone now. on the central question of whether or not he groomed this young man, schofield is emphatic in his denial. it was a totally innocent picture, a totally innocent twitter follow — of which i follow 11,a00 people — and...and then it was a completely innocent backwards—and—forwards over a period of time about a job, about careers. you know? imean... you do that... what's — what's wrong with that? what's wrong with talking to someone no matter, you know, what age they are? does that mean that if — you know, if you are... if you're following anyone on twitter that you absolutely don't talk to anybody else or you don't give advice? attention will now turn to the culture of this morning, and specifically whether or not itv bosses handled it appropriately. dame carolyn mccall, the boss of itv, is due to be questioned by mps next week. amol rajan, bbc news.

we'll have more from amol rajan's interview with phillip schofield later in the programme. a man in his a05, who had been arrested on suspicion of manslaughter following the deaths of two young people in bournemouth, has been released under investigation. a 12—year—old girl and a 17—year—old boy died after being pulled from the sea off bournemouth pier on wednesday. jenny kumah is there for us this morning. good for us this morning. morning. what more do we no people good morning. what more do we now? people here are shocked and saddened by what has happened. trying to understand how two young people who came here on wednesday to enjoy a sunny afternoon, now their families have been bereaved. yesterday the police held a press conference and they moved to stamp out speculation. they said the incident which happened in the seat behind me did

not involvejet skis, happened in the seat behind me did not involve jet skis, that there was not involve jet skis, that there was not a vessel in contact with anyone involved in the incident, that nobody had beenjumping involved in the incident, that nobody had been jumping from the pier. what we have been told is that around a:30pm on wednesday, a huge rescue operation was mounted after ten people got into difficulty in the sea. eight people were treated at the scene and described as having non—life—threatening injuries but two people were taken to hospital and later died. police have given some detail about those people, they are a 12—year—old girl from buckinghamshire and a 17—year—old from southampton. a a0—year—old man was arrested on wednesday but he has now been released under investigation. looking ahead to the weekend, police say there will be a visible presence to reassure the public but also as a point of contact with anyone who has any relevant information.—

contact with anyone who has any relevant information. thank you very much. a 15—year—old girl has died after getting into difficulty while swimming in a reservoir with friends in merseyside. emergency services were called to carr mill dam in st helens yesterday lunchtime after reports of a girl in distress. her death is not being treated as suspicious but police are appealing for witnesses to contact them. scientists say they're excited by the results of a trial of a blood test which can detect 50 different types of cancers. a study led by oxford university found it was able to correctly identify two thirds of cancers among 5,000 people who went to their gp with suspected symptoms. here's our medical editor fergus walsh. a blood test which could detect cancer and rule it out with very high accuracy would be revolutionary. this test has been developed by californian company grail. it can detect tiny fragments of cancerous dna in the bloodstream, which have broken off from a tumour.

the trial involved more than 5,000 patients from england and wales who'd gone to their gp with suspected cancer symptoms. a positive blood test result meant the patient was likely to have cancer. tumours were confirmed 75% of the time. a negative test meant cancer was very unlikely, but did not rule it out completely. where cancer was correctly found, the test was able to pinpoint its origin in the body in 85% of cases. the oxford professor who led the trial, and is presenting the results at a conference in chicago, says the blood test is still a work in progress — but its ability to pinpoint the type of cancer is exciting. 85% of the time, when we found a cancer, it told us where that cancer was. so in future we could use the test

accurately to get the right invasive investigational scan first time and speed up diagnosis. you'll only know if you were in the test group if the test detects potential signs of cancer. often, cancer patients present with only vague symptoms like unexpected weight loss orabdominal pain — so the blood test could help spare them unnecessary investigations. a major trial of the grail test is under way across the nhs — 1a0,000 healthy volunteers are having annual blood tests to see whether it can detect potential signs of cancer. the first results are due next year. fergus walsh, bbc news. in an unprecedented move, the government is planning legal action against the covid inquiry and will seek a judicial review to try to block the release of borisjohnson's unredacted private messages and diaries.

the cabinet office missed a deadline yesterday afternoon to disclose everything between mrjohnson and his advisers during the pandemic. mrjohnson said he would be "more than happy" to hand over the uncensored material. the rmt union says it regrets the inconvenience caused by its latest strike today, but that the dispute will continue until it has a fair deal. it means many operators will only have a limited service, ministers say they've made fair and reasonable pay offers. president biden has tripped and fallen over at a graduation ceremony for the us air force academy in colorado. mr biden, who's 80, had been standing for about an hour and a half, shaking hands with hundreds of cadets. he said he tripped on a sandbag and was helped up by officials, some of us might go to great lengths to get a newjob, but none as extreme as chris serrano from florida.

he as chris serrano from florida. decided to jump out get he decided to jump out of a plane to get the attention of potential employers. chris serrano's video post went viral and caught the eye of manchester—based entrepreneur jack peagam, who responded with a job offer during his own skydive. he has offered him work as creative director and shortly after both jumped out of the lane together. chris signed... is that the pen in hand? he signed the contract in the sky, taking the initiative. it is one way of — sky, taking the initiative. it is one way of doing _ sky, taking the initiative. it 3 one way of doing business. fantastic. not necessarily saying to do that at home. it was a one—off, an interesting story. i'm not quite sure what the skies look like today. good morning. good morning. grey atain good morning. good morning. grey again today- _ good morning. good morning. grey again today. let's _ good morning. good morning. grey again today. let's look— good morning. good morning. grey again today. let's look what - good morning. good morning. grey again today. let's look what is i again today. let's look what is happening for the next few days because there are subtle changes. in

some western areas, maybe a touch cooler than it has been, temperatures down a touch. eastern areas will feel warm and the cloud will break and they will be a good deal more sunshine around. you properly don't think so at the moment as you cast the curtains open, not a great day for many, touch of frost in north—eastern scotland, sunny start to the far west of england and wales and parts of northern ireland. the cloud melts away, clear skies running through the north sea, which will start to break up that cloud. could linger for some in east anglia, the far south—east. more of you will see the sunshine. still breezy through england and wales, especially to the south and east and that will limit the temperature rise but compared with the last few days enriches our copy degrees. strong sunshine overhead and pollen levels on the rise across england and wales as we head into the grass pollen season good and proper. this evening and overnight the breeze will ease a little. maybe some low cloud across

eastern coasts and the north of scotland where we mayjust see an isolated shower through today but most will be dry and clear. temperatures in low single figures for some as we start saturday. whilst there will be a bit of patchy cloud here and there, not to the extent of recent mornings for most, some will drift onto north sea coast here and there and there will be more cloud in the far north of scotland again, maybe the odd shower on the hills but a sunny saturday for most and temperatures up a few degrees today. continuing with the sunny theme for most into sunday but some cloud returning to eastern scotland and eastern england. thank ou. phillip schofield has been speaking for the first time since leaving itv last week. after admitting that he had lied about an affair with a younger colleague. he admits his tv career is over and he also told amol rajan that has been a significant impact on his mental health. you've had quite the week.

how are you? um... ithink... ..i understand... ..how caroline flack felt. um... last week, if my... ..daughters hadn't been there... ..then...| wouldn't be here. and they've. .. ..guarded me. um... and won't let me out of their sight. it's like a weird...numbness. i know that's a selfish point of view. but you come to a point where you just think,

"how much are you supposed to take?" if all of those people that write all of that stuff... do they ever think that there's actually... ..a person at the other end? and so... ..hereiam, um... are you feeling ok to do this? are you feeling strong enough to do this interview? yeah, i have to. why? why do you want to do this interview? because there is an innocent person here who didn't do anything wrong. who is...vulnerable... ..and probably feels like i do. and... ..i just have to say...

..stop with him. ok, with me. but stop with him. leave him alone now. let me say, you know, a lot of my questions are going to be uncomfortable and, let's face it, intrusive. but you've chosen this opportunity to tell your side of the story. and there are questions that your viewers, all the people who supported you over the years — including your family — will want answers to. there's also, of course, lots of questions for itv in all this. you mentioned this young man, and at the centre of recent events is a young man who, together with many others in the media, we're not going to name. under article 8 of the human rights act, he has a right to privacy, and he's not here today to give his own account of events. when did you last speak to him? um... as i engaged the lawyerfor him. um... so...he needed independent support. and so that was the last time. how concerned are you about his welfare right now? massively. massively concerned.

when did you first meet this young man in question? what were the circumstances? i was invited by a friend of mine to go to open a drama school. and that's where the picture was taken. um... whether it was immediately or sometime after he said, "will you follow him on twitter? because he's a fan." so i said, "yeah, sure, no problem." which i did. and he was, what, 15 at the time? yeah. and this is over a... but i follow... i follow 11,300 people. and in all the time i've been on twitter, there has never been any whiff of impropriety. and how often were you in touch with him? hardly — hardly at all. he then said that he was interested in television. "ok," you know? "good luck, good luck. anything i can do to help?" probably — that's what i normally say. um... and that was it for a while.

and then... ..he... ..asked if he could... ..visit the studios, work—experience type of thing. i said, well, come down and have a look — for sure. which he did. how old was he when he first said to you "i'm interested in television"? was he 18 by that point? 19, then, i would think. 19 by then. when you look back now, if you were to look back at those messages now, is there any sense in which you were flirting with him? no. i've been a1 years in television. you know, nothing like this before — you know, no accusations. i mean, this is... this is all, you know, accusations. and then when you met him in person, was there a little moment of sexual attraction then even? absolutely not. 0k. so to be absolutely clear, how old was this young man when you first had any kind of sexual contact with him? 20.

is that when... i mean, this is obviously the nub of it — and for the record, and to put speculation to rest — let me ask you, did you have any kind of sexual relationship or sex with him when he was underage? no — god, no. that... i think that is, you know... in my statement, it says, you know, consensual relationship, fully legal. i mean, that was approved by both sides. you know, that's. .. no, no. he'd been working at the show for...a few months. and... and we'd become mates. we were mates. um, you know, around the studios, you hang out together, you know, you chat to each other, that sort of stuff. and then... ..in my dressing room one day... ..something happened. um... which... ..you know, obviously, iwill...

..regret forever — for him and for me. mostly him. but it... that happened maybe four or five times over the next few months. and... i know it's. .. ..unforgivable. um... but we weren't boyfriends. we weren't in a relationship. i was really in a mess with my own sexuality at the time. and... ..itjust happened. how old was he at this stage? 20, 21. who knew on the team? nobody. to my knowledge. i mean, somebody has to know something for there to be a rumour later on. i didn't believe that anybody knew.

and did you ever tell holly willoughby? no — god, no. that's a bit of a bigger question, because we have... our make—up room was like a sanctuary — has always been a sanctuary. so you tell everything in that room. holly knows everything about me. i know everything about holly. holly did not know. nobody knew. and you never... you never told her? no, i didn't tell anybody. i mean, the reason this matters is because it is about potential abuse of power. and it is... i understand that. and that is a very, very valid question to put to me. and people would say the circumstances are as follows here. you met someone who was a child. you were in a position of power over them. you used your power eventually to give them something they craved — which was a shot at a job in the media. you nurtured a relationship and then that relationship became sexual. they might ask, what's the difference between that and grooming? well, i would say that your initial

list of things was not right anyway. tell me why. it was a totally innocent picture, a totally innocent twitter follow — of which i follow 11,a00 people — and...and then it was a completely innocent backwards and forwards over a period of time about a job, about careers. you know? what's wrong with talking to someone no matter, you know, what age they are? does that mean that if — you know, if you are... if you're following anyone on twitter that you absolutely don't talk to anybody else or you don't give advice? so i disagree with the summation that you just gave, because that does paint a very grave picture. do you know if he has signed an nda — a non—disclosure agreement — preventing him from speaking? no. you don't know? if he has. no. did i make him sign an nda? no, absolutely not. but there's a question of whether or not he was, as it were, paid off — in effect, if he was paid off.

no. was he paid for his silence? no — god, no. no. so is he free to speak if he wants to? yeah. yes. i mean, what he wants is for all of this to go away. he wants a quiet life. and just on a couple of points of information, just to be clear, you are currently — on an ongoing basis — you're paying for his legal advice and support. has there ever been, or is there an injunction or any sort of nda preventing media coverage of your relationship with him? no. why is all this coming out now, phillip? what was the catalyst? what changed ? it got too big. the lie got too big for both of us. itjust got enormous. it was growing and growing and growing. and it... it crossed over from the — from online to... ..mainstream news. itv�*s position is that they — and they've only put out one statement about all this — they say they investigated allegations of an improper relationship, and they were told by both you and the young man that there was no relationship. in retrospect, was that investigation a sham? because it clearly didn't get to the truth, did it?

i think if you have two people who are lying, then what can you do? but what did that investigation amount to? was it... was itjust a phone call to you and a phone call to the young man? was it sort of a proper sort of independent... i think he was asked... he was asked quite a bit. i was asked a couple of times. so, you know, it's... and it wasn't formal. is this the tip of the iceberg? are there more allegations of revelations to come or as far as you're concerned, is all of that... it's my biggest, sorriest secret. the full interview is available on bbc iplayer, and we'll bring you more throughout the programme. and if you've been affected by any of the issues raised in that interview, you can find organisations offering help and support on the bbc action line website, just search bbc.co.uk/actionline. we all love fish and chips. british classic, but like most things it costs a lot more than it did. hannah

is at the seaside to tell us more. good morning from the prom here in blackpool. we have the tower, the sun is coming out, and all along here there are rows and rows of fish and chip shops waiting to get ready forfish and chip friday. i have always been and got my chips this morning but these are not as cheap as they used to be because largely the problem they are facing at the moment is the rising cost of the potatoes themselves, the bit you really wouldn't expect to cost very much at all. if you were looking to feed a family of four, say, with fish and chips tonight, you could easily be looking at £30 for the family, about £9 per portion, we are told. but apparently we are still all going forfish and told. but apparently we are still all going for fish and chip friday, i treat and one that the nation wants to enjoy. we will look at why the costs have been going up, how it is changing our habits later in the

programme. time now to get the news, travel and weather where you are. good morning from bbc london with me, alison earle. if you're travelling by train it's likely to be a difficult few days as rail workers are on strike for the second time this week. members of the rmt are walking out today in their dispute over pay and conditions, while aslef train drivers are taking action tomorrow. unions say it wasn't timed to coincide with major events, including the fa cup final at wembley. we're just looking for a reasonable package for our members, which involves them getting a pay rise. they haven't had one for nearly three to four years. having security to know they're not going to be made redundant, which is of course what happened to our entire membership who worked for p&o. they were all sacked by email. and not have their contracts ripped up to enable the employer to have productivity. so that's very much

what we're pursuing, and we're going to continue to do this. the department for transport said, "the government has facilitated a fair and reasonable pay offer." animal rights activists say they still plan to disrupt the epsom derby tomorrow, despite a high court injunction. the jockey club, which owns the course, said it accepts the right to peaceful protest, but fears it could be a danger. it's offered the group animal rising an area to demonstrate. it's now 75 years since the ship empire windrush arrived at tilbury docks, and events are being held to mark the anniversary. it brought hundreds of skilled workers from the caribbean to britain to help rebuild after the war. alfred was among them. he's been telling us about his life here. has britain been good? i've lived here all these years. i've raised a beautifulfamily. oh, god, what a beautifulfamily. and the only thing i haven't got is money. that's all i haven't got!

travel now and this is how the tube is looking. there are severe delays on the circle line, and minor delays on the piccadilly line between rayners lane and south harrow now onto the weather with sara. good morning to you. it's been a pretty tricky week of weather this week. because yes, it's been dry and settled, but obviously at times it's been really cloudy and quite cool under that cloud. we've still got cloud first thing this morning. it came again overnight. but it clears much more readily this morning. into this afternoon, a lot of sunshine across london and the south—east — for most of us, actually. maybe just a little bit here and there along the coasts. temperatures once more in the high teens, if not low 205. what we have at the moment is high pressure towards the north of the uk. the winds in a clockwise direction. that has been giving us that east, north—easterly wind. that is a pattern that will continue into the weekend. however, it looks like we have less cloud again for tomorrow. we start with a lot of clear weather tomorrow morning. we keep the sunshine through the day across the capital and the wider

east and south—east. just a bit of fair weather cloud in the afternoon. temperatures in the best of it into the low 205 celsius. this weather pattern shows no signs of change into next week. there will be some cloud around at times through the early part of next week, but we are dry. there's more on our website, including the orchid that's flowered for the first time in the uk. i'm back in half an hour. hello, this is breakfast with charlie stayt and naga munchetty. the derby gets underway today, but officials are juggling rail strikes and the biggest security operation in the course's history — to combat disruption from animal rights protesters. tim muffett is at epsom racecourse for us this morning. morning to you. they have not asked you onto the trackjust yet. i was

to protest. plenty to discuss. i'm delighted to be joined to protest. plenty to discuss. i'm delighted to bejoined byjames given. you are the director of equine regulation safety and welfare at british horseracing authority. how are you feeling ahead of the derby? how are you feeling ahead of the derb ? ~ z, , z, . derby? well, lots of excitement. lookin: derby? well, lots of excitement. looking forward _ derby? well, lots of excitement. looking forward to _ derby? well, lots of excitement. looking forward to one _ derby? well, lots of excitement. looking forward to one of - derby? well, lots of excitement. looking forward to one of the i looking forward to one of the pinnacles _ looking forward to one of the pinnacles of the british racing season — pinnacles of the british racing season. and also internationally. some _ season. and also internationally. some of— season. and also internationally. some of the best horses have graced the turf— some of the best horses have graced the turf anywhere in the world are here _ the turf anywhere in the world are here i_ the turf anywhere in the world are here i am — the turf anywhere in the world are here. i am looking forward to seeing the best— here. i am looking forward to seeing the best horses. a here. i am looking forward to seeing the best horses.— the best horses. a couple of big challenges- _ the best horses. a couple of big challenges. firstly, _ the best horses. a couple of big challenges. firstly, the - the best horses. a couple of big challenges. firstly, the rail- challenges. firstly, the rail strikes. it will be harderfor people to get here. what have you done to try to alleviate that? it has been out of my remote slightly in terms _ has been out of my remote slightly in terms of— has been out of my remote slightly in terms of equine welfare and so on, in terms of equine welfare and so on. but _ in terms of equine welfare and so on. but i'm— in terms of equine welfare and so on, but i'm sure there are other plans— on, but i'm sure there are other plans put— on, but i'm sure there are other plans put in— on, but i'm sure there are other plans put in place in terms of extra transport, — plans put in place in terms of extra transport, coaches and so on, for people _ transport, coaches and so on, for people to — transport, coaches and so on, for people to get here. | transport, coaches and so on, for people to get here.— transport, coaches and so on, for people to get here. i gather some more parking _ people to get here. i gather some more parking spaces _ people to get here. i gather some more parking spaces than - people to get here. i gather some j more parking spaces than normal. people to get here. i gather some i more parking spaces than normal. in terms of the protesters, what are you doing? i gather there is a special designated area for

see you later. such an occasion. it is one of those exciting times of the year where you feel you are in a proper summer of sport. we have that, we have the ashes, and two cup finals. one has already been played. it didn't go well. an ugly contrast? absolutely. jose mourinho, on the back of the europa league final where his roman side were beaten, 1a yellow cards were handed out by anthony taylor, the units official in charge of that match. we will show you some of anthony taylor during that game. he struggled to keep things under control. surrounded by players. 1a yellow cards he ended up handing out, including one tojose mourinho. on the point of the roma boss mourinho, he was not happy with some of the decision—making that happened during the match. he took to the corporate afterwards. this is footage of mourinho pacing up and down shouting abuse in the direction of anthony

taylor and his other assistance. like i said, he wasn't pleased, in particular about one penalty decision. but various other things as well. and this escalated at the airport. this is what happened to anthony taylor and his family at budapest airport. here he is in his grey t—shirt trying to make his way through the airport with his family, people shouting and screaming and hurling abuse. bottles of drink being thrown, scuffles. some security in place, with a chair being thrown too, as the family are ushered to safety. the referees' governing body pgmol has issued this statement. they say they're continuing to provide their full support to anthony taylor and his family. among those condeming what happened, the former england captain rio ferdinand had this to say.

well, in the last 20 minutes i've been speaking to paul field from the referees' association. he know anthony taylor and his family. here's what he's been telling me. he is amongst friends in the refereeing community. he has got a great bunch of allies. and more importantly, he has got a great family. anthony will be fine. let's look after his children and his wife as well, because they are amongst all of that. so, very unpleasant. not a great occasion for him at the airport. and mourinho has got previous. so, yeah. no one likes a bully. strong words. very strong words. we haven't heard yet from anthony. paul told me they had been

exchanging text messages. and understandably, anthony taylor upset with what happened. but as paul was saying, sadly they are used to this as match officials because they see it happen all too often. and again, more needs to be done. i know it is a very easy place for us to go to as journalists. he does feel the fa is making more progress than perhaps of the european governing bodies. but still we're in a place where it seems to be acceptable to shout abuse and surround referees. unless there is physical contact, nothing is going to be done about it. i think also you can see the strength of anger when they threw out words like bully about one of the managers?— like bully about one of the managers?_ ai like bully about one of the _ managers?_ a high-profile managers? absolutely. a high-profile mana t er, managers? absolutely. a high-profile manager. that — managers? absolutely. a high-profile manager. that is _ managers? absolutely. a high-profile manager, that is drawing _ managers? absolutely. a high-profile manager, that is drawing a _ managers? absolutely. a high-profile manager, that is drawing a line, i manager, that is drawing a line, isn't it? z, , ., isn't it? one of the things that occurs to _ isn't it? one of the things that occurs to me _ isn't it? one of the things that occurs to me is _ isn't it? one of the things that occurs to me is kamara - isn't it? one of the things that | occurs to me is kamara serving referees — occurs to me is kamara serving referees and i would, by the governing body, to talk about their experiences? it appears football

conference league table. beckham has personally thanked neville for his "hard work, passion and integrity". two weeks today the start of the ashes. england's bumper summer of cricket is underway, and it was a dominant start for the hosts on day one of the test against ireland at lord's. stuart broad off to a brilliant start, hurtling through the irish batting with five wickets for 51 runs as the tourists were skittled out for 172. england made steady progress in reply, with ben duckett 60 not out, having helped his side to 152 for 1 at close. ultimately the day could not have gone much betterfor us. we won the toss and bowled under helpful conditions for the first hour and a half. then the sun came out and the pitch played nicer. it was crucial we got those four wickets in the first session. and the way the boys played with the bat tonight was pretty awesome. so yeah, we have put ourselves in a really good position. but like always in test cricket, you have to bat

a happy stuart broad. you prefer the bandanna, naga? it reminded me of karate. it reminded me of karate. i am always observant. thank you. a wildfire that has been burning in the highlands for almost a week, has caused extensive damage to a nature reserve, according to rspb scotland. flames covered a 30 square mile area of moor and woodland near cannich, which the scottish fire and rescue service said would make it the largest wildfire in the uk. a 12—mile plume of smoke could also been seen from space by nasa satellites. we're joined now by dan tomes from rspb scotland. good morning. these pictures are horrific. and the impact this will have on the wildlife, well, you tell me? what is the extent?-

have had a great response from the fire and rescue service, local gamekeepers, localfarmers, everybody has pulled together to try to minimise the damage. it could be a very big fire. you to minimise the damage. it could be a very big fire-— a very big fire. you have been hel-itn a very big fire. you have been helping out — a very big fire. you have been helping out with _ a very big fire. you have been helping out with tackling i a very big fire. you have been helping out with tackling the l a very big fire. you have been i helping out with tackling the fire. what has been involved? you touched thereupon the communities get involved, everybody getting involved, everybody getting involved, what has been needed? test involved, what has been needed? gilt times we have been out with fire beaters, putting the flame out. at other times there has been a helicopter working. we have been observing from the hilltops just to see where the fire is to try to guide the helicopters in to be most effective. i guide the helicopters in to be most effective. ,, z, guide the helicopters in to be most effective. ~ z, ._ guide the helicopters in to be most effective. ~ z, ., , effective. i know it may almost seem too far in the — effective. i know it may almost seem too far in the future, _ effective. i know it may almost seem too far in the future, but _ effective. i know it may almost seem too far in the future, but how - too far in the future, but how quickly does land, wild land like this, recover?— quickly does land, wild land like this, recover? . z, this, recover? well, some of it will recover quite _ this, recover? well, some of it will recover quite quickly. _ this, recover? well, some of it will recover quite quickly. we - this, recover? well, some of it will recover quite quickly. we are i this, recover? well, some of it will. recover quite quickly. we are hoping that in the next couple of years we will get some natural regeneration from the forest on our nature

reserve and we will have some good habitat for some of the species to return to. but we have been working for more than 25 years to create what we have. we have lost some habitat. and it will take a good few years for that to return. but there will be signed next spring of some recovery. it is not all a disaster. —— signs. dan, thank you very much. the area manager of sb —— of rspb scotland, talking to us. yes, and i know, matt, you are looking closely at some of those images. so much damage done under the weather clearly has a bearing —— bearing on what is going on? it has had a huge part to play. good morning. lack of rainfall this year, particularly through spring. this is the river dee in aberdeenshire. lower levels than normal. in around inverness, spring as a whole, you should see 100% to make the average rainfall. we have been a long way

short of that by about a third. those dry conditions have led to enhanced fire risks. contrast that with the south—east of the country, were part of cambridge we have had well above average spring rainfall, even with the past few weeks been completely dry. what of the week ahead? is there any rain in sight? the short answer is, no. the rainfall forecast chart just shows again it is all focus —— focused in southern europe. high pressure for us means virtually all of the uk will remain dry for the next five days, and indeed through much of next week. there will be a few weather changes here and there, even though the weather patterns are fairly static. the big change for the east today is the cloud breaking up. it has been grey and cold in the last few days. there are signs that should be more sunshine today. if i show you the satellite image, we are watching this, a big gap in the clouds. sunny conditions working

their way southwards. a bit of patchy cloud. but whilst many start grey we will see more sunshine developed across the country today. it will take awhile through some parts of east anglia, the and english channel. and a little bit of cloud every now and again towards the east. cloud building up in the highlands to produce an isolated shower, but the emphasis is on isolated. the vast majority dry, strong sunshine. and with more sunshine for eastern parts, it is going to feel a touch warmer but still tempered by that breeze coming off the sea. elsewhere, temperatures in the high teens, low 205, strong sunshine overhead for the vast majority, with high uv levels. for england and wales, high pollen. this evening and overnight with the clearer skies around it will be a cold and ifor clearer skies around it will be a cold and i for england and wales especially. the odd patch of low cloud. more especially towards orkney, shetland and the western isles. some drizzle. clearskies elsewhere. temperatures are well down into single figures. england and wales could see temperatures

three to a degrees. while there will be the odd patch of mist and fog, lot more sunshine. a sunny saturday for most. patches of low cloud drifting into eastern coast. more cloud on the far of scotland. again, the chance of an isolated shower. tomorrow, temperatures up a degree orso tomorrow, temperatures up a degree or so in today. as we going to sunday, the high pressure changes direction a little bit again. it starts to bring the cloud round. the top and back down the north sea. greyer conditions to begin with on sunday down these eastern counties. not quite to the extent we are seeing. optimistic they will be a few more breaks than of late. maybe not a sunny saturday, but for most it would be plenty of sunshine. feeling warm once again in that sunset. dry and fairly sunny weather continues. but it stays breezy in the south and east. that is how your weather is looking. we have of course jumped weather is looking. we have of coursejumped into weather is looking. we have of course jumped into summer. weather is looking. we have of coursejumped into summer. but weather is looking. we have of course jumped into summer. but it's time to have a quick step back into

since resigning from itv, phillip schofield says he feels nothing but sadness and regret — and denies that he groomed a younger colleague. i did something very wrong... ..and then i lied about it. consistently lied about it. and you can't live with that — how do you live with that? the former this morning presenter speaks about his relationship with holly willoughby and the end of his itv career, as he gives his side of the story. the government plans legal action against the covid inquiry, as it tries to block the release of borisjohnson's unredacted private messages and diaries. scientists say they are excited about the trial of a blood test which can detect 50 different types of cancer. good morning from blackpool where i am looking at the surging cost of

regrets the relationship, but insists it was consensual and he strenuously denies claims that he groomed the man. he's been speaking to amol rajan. phillip, come on in. good to see you. thank you. phillip schofield granted this interview because he wanted to say sorry, he wanted to show contrition, and he wanted to correct some of what he sees as the false narratives in the public domain over the past week. are you feeling ok to do this? you're feeling strong enough to do this interview? yeah, i have to. schofield described the enormous toll that recent days have taken on him. and it is relentless. and it is day after day after day after day. and if you do that, if you don't think that that is going to have the most catastrophic effect on someone's mind... what do you... do you want me to die? because that's where i am.

i have lost...everything. schofield says he is extremely concerned for the welfare of the young man with whom he had an extramarital affair. there is an innocent person here who didn't do anything wrong. who is...vulnerable... ..and probably feels like i do. and... ijust have to say... ..stop with him. ok, with me. but stop with him. leave him alone now. on the central question of whether or not he groomed this young man, schofield is emphatic in his denial. it was a totally innocent picture, a totally innocent twitter follow — of which i follow 11,400 people — and...and then it was a completely innocent backwards—and—forwards over a period of time

about a job, about careers. you know? imean... you do that... what's — what's wrong with that? what's wrong with talking to someone no matter, you know, what age they are? does that mean that if — you know, if you are... if you're following anyone on twitter that you absolutely don't talk to anybody else or you don't give advice? attention will now turn to the culture of this morning, and specifically whether or not itv bosses handled it appropriately. dame carolyn mccall, the boss of itv, is due to be questioned by mps next week. amol rajan, bbc news. we'll bring you more from that interview with phillip schofield later in the programme. in an unprecedented move, the government is planning legal action against the covid inquiry and will seek a judicial review to try to block the release of borisjohnson's unredacted private messages and diaries. our political correspondent lone wells joins us now.

lone, good morning to you. this has all been quite complicated in terms of who set up the inquiry and who has been asking for information. but now, what the government is doing is quite interesting in itself because it was involved in setting up the inquiry and appointing the head. that's right. this is a pretty unprecedented move, really. this is the first time that the government has taken legal action against an inquiry that it has commissioned and remember this is an inquiry into its own covid response so the optics of this at the moment are very challenging indeed for the government, i think. challenging indeed for the government, ithink. their argument has been consistent, though, throughout this dispute. they feel like it would be inappropriate to hand over unredacted versions of what they deem to be unambiguously irrelevant messages, notebooks, diaries to the covid inquiry that are not to do with decision—making.

examples are personal messages, exchanged between colleagues about matters in their private life, for example. the covid inquiry has always taken issue with this because they say it is for them to decide what is relevant or not to their inquiry. as you say, the government has now launched a judicial review to try to challenge them on that point. there is not, though, lots of optimism in government that they are going to win this, which could mean they would have to hand over the messages anyway if they didn't. even government ministers like the science minister george freeman have said publicly that they think a court will rule in favour of the inquiry to hand material over. another challenge for the government on this issue is the intervention by the former prime minister boris johnson himself, who has personally written to the chair of the inquiry saying that he would have no issue handing over unredacted copies of his whatsapp messages, notebooks and diaries himself to the inquiry for

them to take a look at and judge whether or not they think it is relevant. lots of issues bubbling away for the government over this legal rout that has now started before this inquiry has even begun any of its public hearings.- any of its public hearings. ione, a lot to net any of its public hearings. ione, a lot to get through _ any of its public hearings. ione, a lot to get through there. - any of its public hearings. ione, a lot to get through there. thank i any of its public hearings. ione, a i lot to get through there. thank you so much. lone wells for us. a man in his 40s, who had been arrested on suspicion of manslaughter following the deaths of two young people in bournemouth, has been released under investigation. a 12—year—old girl and a 17—year—old boy died after being pulled from the sea off bournemouth beach on wednesday. eight other people were rescued and treated at the scene. police say there was no contact with a jet ski or boat and no—one jumped from the pier. scientists say they're excited about the results of a trial of a blood test which can detect 50 different types of cancers. a study led by oxford university, found it was possible to correctly identify two—thirds of cancers among 5,000 people who had been

to their gp with suspected symptoms. here's more from our medical editor, fergus walsh. a blood test which could detect cancer and rule it out with very high accuracy would be revolutionary. this test has been developed by californian company grail. it can detect tiny fragments of cancerous dna in the bloodstream, which have broken off from a tumour. the trial involved more than 5,000 patients from england and wales who'd gone to their gp with suspected cancer symptoms. a positive blood test result meant the patient was likely to have cancer. tumours were confirmed 75% of the time. a negative test meant cancer was very unlikely, but did not rule it out completely. where cancer was correctly found, the test was able to pinpoint its origin in the body in 85% of cases.

the oxford professor who led the trial, and is presenting the results at a conference in chicago, says the blood test is still a work in progress — but its ability to pinpoint the type of cancer is exciting. 85% of the time, when we found a cancer, it told us where that cancer was. so in future we could use the test accurately to get the right invasive investigational scan first time and speed up diagnosis. you'll only know if you were in the test group if the test detects potential signs of cancer. often, cancer patients present with only vague symptoms like unexpected weight loss orabdominal pain — so the blood test could help spare them unnecessary investigations. a major trial of the grail test is under way across the nhs — 140,000 healthy volunteers are having annual blood tests to see whether it can detect potential signs of cancer.

the first results are due next year. fergus walsh, bbc news. the rmt union says it regrets the inconvenience caused by its latest strike today, but that the dispute will continue until it has a fair deal. it means many operators will only have a limited service, and there's another strike by train drivers in the aslef union planned for tomorrow. ministers say they've made fair and reasonable pay offers. what is going on with the weather? what is going on with the weather? what is going on with the weather? not a lot. high pressure in charge, things fairly static, will be all the way into next week which means most of you are still staying dry, not great for gardeners, but if you settled changes today which will make a big difference to some. across western areas it will be a bit cooler than it has been but still pretty warm in strong sunshine. in the east it should feel

warmer because we will see a bit more sunshine here. that sunshine has been developing due to holes in the cloud across the north sea, so we have the breeze coming down eastern and southern parts but it will bring those breaks further and further south, will bring those breaks further and furthersouth, breaking will bring those breaks further and further south, breaking up the cloud. more sunshine. takes longer through the coast of east anglia and the english channel and in the far north of scotland, in the hills, very outside chance of an isolated child but overall a dry and sunny afternoon, breezy still to the south and east. across the east coast it will be warmer than recent days because of the sunshine, down a couple of degrees in western areas. pollen levels moderate to high across much of england and wales as the grass pollen season gets going. tonight with less cloud in place to begin with means a clear at night and the cold at night. the exception in the far north of scotland, could be an isolated spot of drizzle. for england and wales, compared with last night when we saw temperatures 9 or 10 degrees, a few rural areas

down to 3 or 4 degrees to start saturday. by and large, other than a few patches of low cloud, one or two drifting to the east coast, not as much as recently, and more cloud in northern scotland, it is a sunny and warm it saturday, all points seen temperatures creep up by a degree or so. sunday, more sunshine once again but we will see a bit more cloud return to eastern coasts of scotland and eastern england. you told charlie there was nothing happening and yet she managed to do all of that and say nothing was happening!— all of that and say nothing was haueninu! ,., ., happening! there is always a little somethina happening! there is always a little something but _ happening! there is always a little something but the _ happening! there is always a little something but the big _ happening! there is always a little something but the big picture - happening! there is always a little something but the big picture is l something but the big picture is fairly static, that's what i mean. it is stable, we are happy with that. thank you, we will speak to you later. we're going to hear more of the interview with phillip schofield — who's been speaking publicly for the first time since leaving itv. he left the broadcaster last week after admitting that he lied about an affair with a younger colleague — who he strenuously

denies grooming — and says one of his reasons for doing this interview is to try to protect the man. he's been speaking to the bbc�*s amol rajan. what specifically do you feel that you did that was wrong? ..kissed someone in the workplace, which led on to a little bit more. and that, retrospectively, of course, you know, you think... my friends have said, "what the hell were you thinking? you don't do that. you've never done that." and i think — there's no excuse. i'm not — i don't put any — there are no excuses here. imean, i... i have, i am... it's my fault, but... ..i think the fact that perhaps i was trying to come to terms with who i was... ..what i was going to do about it, the effects that it would have. i think that's probably the reason.

and do you feel — just listening to how you talk about it — do you feel that what was morally wrong about it was that it involved an abuse of power, because you were an older guy who had more power than him? obviously, that criticism has been levelled at me, but... well, i've never done that in my whole life. i've never abused my power anywhere. i'm not a bully. i don't — i mean, there are... god, you read the things that you're supposed to be. you know, i don't lord it around tv studios. everyone is a friend. it's been important for me to, erm, be part of a team. i love teamwork, i love, i love... the this morning family are so supportive and so kind and so loving, i felt safe there because everyone was so kind. it's been said that the sun had

a story, they were approached in, ithink, november2019, by the journalist dan wootton, who said he had the story that you were in a relationship with this young man — or had been in a relationship and the sun knew about it. but there's a claim now, which i want to invite you to address, that the sun knew both things. they knew you were gay and they knew you'd had a relationship with this young man, but they decided not to do the story about you and the young man in return for the exclusive about you coming out. oh, god, no. no, no, no. no! no. absolutely categorically untrue. so let me put directly what dan wootton says so that you can debunk if you wish to. dan wootton said — he now works for gb news — "a decision had been made for the newspaper to have a closer relationship with itv. and as part of that closer relationship, they were offered" — the sun was offered — "ringside seats and an exclusive interview for this coming—out announcement. as a result, obviously, they —

the sun — wouldn't run a story about the young runner. it was prompted by philip." that is categorically untrue. and i've got to say, there are a great many things that have been said that are categorically untrue. now, i have, you know, i have nothing against dan, but he also alleges that i got him fired from lorraine. categorically untrue. and that is, i think, the foundation of his utter, total hatred of me. you can't do it. there is no way that any presenter on one show can get a contributor fired from another because they don't like the fact they're, whatever, in the building. it's not possible. not even phillip schofield? no! i have no — no power in there. i don't know where this came from, that i have more power than anybody else. there is that, that — you know, bless dan — there is a lot of things that i think are said out of hatred for me.

and now i've actually brought myself down. to a far, far greater degree than you could ever have done, i have brought myself down. i am done. erm, i have to talk about television in the past tense. which breaks my heart. but it continues. and it is relentless. and it is day after day, after day after day. and if you do that, if you don't think that that is going to have the most catastrophic effect on someone's mind... what do you — do you want me to die? because that's where i am. i have lost everything. my girls saved my life.

they said, last week, they haven't left me for a moment. they've been by my side every moment because they're scared to let me out of their sight. if my girls hadn't been there, i wouldn't be here, because i don't see a future. when did you last speak to holly willoughby? i whatsapp—ed her on the day that i put the statement up and i said to her, erm, "i know you can't reply. you're probably not allowed to. but please know that i am so desperately, desperately sorry." did she reply? no. how would you characterise your relationship with her now? is it broken? ah, i adore holly. i mean, i've always adored holly. she's my tv sister.

and i, from my point of view, no, i—i—i... i don't have a problem with holly at all. what would you say to her, given that she's doubtless listening to you now? what would you say to her about, maybe publicly that you said privately, about how you'd like to apologise, and your hopes for mending that relationship? i would say to everyone... i would say to my family, my friends, my work colleagues, the public, to itv, to my management company, to everyone that i lied to, i am desperately, desperately sorry. but principally i would like to apologise to him, because it may have been consensual, may have been fully legal, but i shouldn't have

allowed it to happen. and that was a grave, grave error on my part. and i know that because of that, an absolutely innocent person is being persecuted. there are a lot of lies on social media, and there are a lot of lies about you. but i've got to ask, there are people who'd say, given he lied, and lied in the past, why should we believe him today? well, only my friends and family need to worry about that, because i don't — you don't have to worry about what i say any more. i'd just be saying that to the garden. you've been dropped as ambassador to the prince's trust. did that hurt? broke my heart. i can't remember how long i've been there. do you feel a victim in all this? no. i feel a victim of hate, after the event. and i think probably there will be a lot of people watching

this thinking, "how dare you?" it would be easier for me to say i don't feel like a victim. what i feel a victim of is...spun areas of non—factual information and gossip and nastiness. but... ..i don't look any more. i...have already told you how i feel. and... ..i'm not in television any more. i don't know what i am, even remotely, if i get through this — if i get through this — i don't know even remotely how...| move forward. i don't...

what am i going to do? what am i going to do with my days? i see nothing ahead of me, but... ..blackness and sadness, and regret and remorse, and guilt. i did something very wrong. and then i lied about it — consistently lied about it. and you can't live with that. how do you live with that? phillip schofield, thank you so much for your time. thanks. amol rajan joins us now. good morning. people will have seen that interview for the first time this morning and a number of things may occur to them. one might be concerned by phillip schofield's welfare, given what he said to you. alongside questions aboutjust what

his motivation is, is doing an interview with you about this subject. interview with you about this sub'ect. ., �* , interview with you about this sub'ect. . �* , . ~ interview with you about this sub'ect. ., �* , ., ,, .,, subject. yeah. let's take those intent. subject. yeah. let's take those intent- 0n _ subject. yeah. let's take those intent. on the _ subject. yeah. let's take those intent. on the first... - subject. yeah. let's take those intent. on the first... people i subject. yeah. let's take those l intent. on the first... people can make up their own minds when they see someone present as phillip schofield does there. it is worth saying to people, clear and reassured, we have huge, as you know better than anyone, huge numbers of conversations in advance to make sure we are taking our duty of care to take it seriously but we also have a duty of care to the truth and the point of view of us, and he has also done an interview with the sun, is to ask these questions, personal questions, to try to get to the truth of this story. from his point of view i think he wanted to show contrition, i think he clearly wanted to say sorry, and as you will see as you are watching this morning, there are a number of, as he sees them, false narratives in

the public domain about how itv behaved, about the length of the relationship, that payment of taxes which he wanted to correct. it is worth saying i went into it very mindful that he is someone who understands better than most the power of televisual testimony. this is a guy who has been doing it for 40 years, so as someone who had a message to convey and who understands the power of the usefulness of tv, he is someone who i think wanted to do this interview to get a message across and i think you did, but i hope you did it while still getting challenged and facing tough scrutiny. still getting challenged and facing tough scrutiny-— still getting challenged and facing tough scrutiny. still getting challenged and facing touch scrutin . _, ., ., tough scrutiny. good morning. he did that sa inc tough scrutiny. good morning. he did that saying that _ tough scrutiny. good morning. he did that saying that amol _ tough scrutiny. good morning. he did that saying that amol rajan _ tough scrutiny. good morning. he did that saying that amol rajan of - tough scrutiny. good morning. he did that saying that amol rajan of the i that saying that amol rajan of the things he said is that his career on tv, his life as he knows it is over. putting his story across, fine, but what next? i’m putting his story across, fine, but what next?— putting his story across, fine, but what next? �* ., ., , , what next? i'm going to be extremely

i think he feels very guilty about the consequences for him, and the other is to try to correct those falsehoods. on that specific point of information, there are a number of information, there are a number of particular points that he makes about the length of the relationship, the fact they only had a few sexual encounters, the young man only went to his flat on one occasion as far as phillip schofield can remember. the fact phillip schofield was not involved in him moving from this morning to another programme. there are corrections he wanted to get across to the narrative. i think he wanted to say sorry, as well, and i think he wanted to say it to as many people as possible which is why he chose the bbc. ., ~ as possible which is why he chose the sac. ., ~ , ., as possible which is why he chose the bbc. ., ~ , ., , as possible which is why he chose the sac. ., ~ y. y . as possible which is why he chose the bbc. ., ~ y., , . ~ ., the bbc. thank you very much. amol ra'an, the bbc. thank you very much. amol rajan. who — the bbc. thank you very much. amol rajan, who conducted _ the bbc. thank you very much. amol rajan, who conducted that _ the bbc. thank you very much. amol rajan, who conducted that interview| rajan, who conducted that interview with phillip schofield. the full interview is available on bbc iplayer, and we'll bring you more throughout the programme. and if you've been affected by any of the issues raised in that interview, you can find organisations offering help and support on the bbc action line

website — bbc.co.uk/actionline. time now to get the news, travel and weather where you are. good morning from bbc london with me, alison earle. passengers using trains are being advised to plan ahead, as two more days of train strikes are underway. members of the rmt are walking out today in their dispute over pay and conditions, while aslef train drivers are taking action tomorrow. unions say it wasn't timed to coincide with major events, including the fa cup final at wembley. we're just looking for a reasonable package for our members, which involves them getting a pay rise. they haven't had one for nearly three to four years. having security to know they're not going to be made redundant, which is of course what happened to our entire membership who worked for p&o. they were all sacked by email.

and not have their contracts ripped up to enable the employer to have productivity. so that's very much what we're pursuing, and we're going to continue to do this. the department for transport said, "the government has facilitated a fair and reasonable pay offer." animal rights activists say they still plan to disrupt the epsom derby tomorrow, despite a high court injunction. thejockey club, which owns the course, said it accepts the right to peaceful protest, but fears it could be a danger to those attending. it's offered the group animal rising an area to demonstrate. it's now 75 years since the ship empire windrush arrived at tilbury docks, and events are being held to mark the anniversary. it brought hundreds of skilled workers from the caribbean to britain, to help rebuild after the war. alfred was among those onboard. he's been telling us about his life here. i've lived here all these years. i've raised a beautifulfamily.

oh, god, what a beautifulfamily. and the only thing i haven't got is money. that's all i haven't got! travel now, and this is how the tube is looking at the moment. there are severe delays on the circle line due to train cancellations. a good service on all other lines. now onto the weather with sara. good morning to you. it's been a pretty tricky week of weather this week. because yes, it's been dry and settled, but obviously at times it's been really cloudy and quite cool under that cloud. we've still got cloud first thing this morning. it came again overnight. but it clears much more readily this morning. into this afternoon, a lot of sunshine across london and the south—east — for most of us, actually. maybe just a little bit here and there along the coasts. temperatures once more in the high teens, if not low 20s. what we have at the moment is high pressure towards the north of the uk. the winds in a clockwise direction. that has been giving us that east, north—easterly wind. that is a pattern that will continue into the weekend.

however, it looks like we have less cloud again for tomorrow. we start with a lot of clear weather tomorrow morning. we keep the sunshine through the day across the capital and the wider east and south—east. just a bit of fair weather cloud in the afternoon. temperatures in the best of it into the low 20s celsius. this weather pattern shows no signs of change into next week. there will be some cloud around at times through the early part of next week, but we are dry. there's more on our website and social media, including the orchid that's flowered for the first time in the uk. i'm back in half an hour. hello, this is breakfast with charlie stayt and naga munchetty. daytime now is 8:31am. as much as many of us love a plate of fish and chips, the rising prices might not taste so good. the cost of a takeaway has gone up nearly 20% in the year to march.

hannah is in blackpool for us today to find out what's driving the increase. i know it is going to be sunny outside for all of us today, but you're indoors. is it a fish and chips friday?— you're indoors. is it a fish and chips friday? you're indoors. is it a fish and chis frida ? �* , , , chips friday? apparently it still is ve much chips friday? apparently it still is very much a _ chips friday? apparently it still is very much a habit _ chips friday? apparently it still is very much a habit that _ chips friday? apparently it still is very much a habit that we - chips friday? apparently it still is very much a habit that we still. chips friday? apparently it still is l very much a habit that we still have to do the fish and chip friday. here, i have got a bucket of chips. five kilos n here. it is actually quite heavy. this now is costing around £6 for the five kilos. up from only £2, £2.50 a couple of months ago. dominic is already busy getting ready forfish months ago. dominic is already busy getting ready for fish and chip friday. i am going to put these on. is that all right? are we going to go? ok. get these frying. ready for the first customers, who might be a while yet, i guess. they might be a little while. they will be more than ready by the time people get here.

the cost of fish and chips has gone up the cost of fish and chips has gone up by 19%. if you were to buy a porsche and today the average cost would be about £9 per portion. and have big problem right now is this daily rise that they are seeing in the cost of potatoes. it can now be £25 for a sack goof up from £9. this is a problem that is affecting friars up and down the country. yvette austen has been finding out. traditionally a cheap staple food, but not so cheap any more. rising energy costs, staff wages and now a jump in the price of potatoes, is creating a challenge for the chippies. we opened about 12 months before lockdown, before the pandemic. and it's just been one roller—coaster after another, to be honest. estimates suggest a 10% reduction in the amount of land being used to grow potatoes this year. that's a knock on effect

of last year's drought. and despite a wet spring this year, the ground is now dry and the growing potatoes are thirsty. extreme weather is bad news for the growers, coupled with the high energy costs. we have had a bigjump in our electricity costs, actually nine times higher in october than it had been in our fixed price contracts from the months before. and also, energy affects fertiliser costs for us as well, and to a lesser extent, transport. over the past decade, it's estimated [and used for growing potatoes has decreased by around 30%. they are really hard to grow. it's either too wet, - it's too cold, it's too dry. you need the right sort of land. yeah, so it's difficult. a lot of farmers just are looking at, you know, just saying, - i can't afford to grow. and that's a real shame. yvette austin, bbc news, maidstone.

receives the referee's report. that was the fallout from the europa league final. other major trophies are still to be won in the next week. including the fa cup final tomorrow between premier league champions manchester city and manchester united. erling haaland has scored 52 goals for manchester city this season and says he will do everything to help them when they travel. he has been speaking to dan roan. never, ever misses! this man is a sensation. another haaland hat—trick! he's the norwegian super scorer who's taken the premier league by storm. in a remarkable debut season in england, manchester city's erling haaland has established himself as world football's most feared striker. and here at the club's training ground, he told me how he was handling sporting superstardom aged just 22. it's nice. that means i've done something right. my life has changed, of course. i can't live normal, so normal, any more. and that's something ijust have to admit. and that's how my life is. i can't complain.

i like to do a bit crazy kind of stuff, both on and off the pitch. like the silk pyjamas, which seem to be becoming something of a trademark of yours? no, i like to be comfortable wherever i go, and i think i look really good. so that's why i use it, basically. i'm 196 tall and got long blonde hair, so wherever i go, people are going to see me. so that's how my life is. but what can i do? there's nothing i can do. i'm — that's my life. i just have to try to enjoy it as much as i can. when i was young, i wanted to become a professionalfootball and the best in the world. so, eh — and a price comes with that. if you're going to be that, there's certain things you have to do different. you have to live different. you have to do this and that. and that's just how it is. and, yeah, i'm i'm not complaining. your dream, you say, was to be the best in the world. have you achieved that dream? do you believe you are the best

goal—scorer in the world right now? eh, a good question. i don't want to answer that. i think someone else should answer that. but i scored most goals this season, ithink, so, erm, that's a good start. in an astonishing campaign, the prolific haaland has scored 52 goals for his club, including 36 in the premier league, a new record. and haaland does what haaland does. is there something which you can identify as the secret to being such a great goal—scorer? for me, it's about keeping the confidence and i try to never overthink. that's the most difficult thing in this world in 2023. when i score a goal, it's like, oh, this feeling is so nice, i would love to do it again, kind of a feeling. so, eh... it's easy, really. i'm a simple guy. when i do something and i like it, i want to do it more. do you think you can improve? yeah. from my right foot to my left foot. from the heading. everything. having helped city retain the premier league title haaland's

now preparing for the fa cup final against arch rivals manchester united, and then the champions league final. at stake, a first treble since united managed it 24 years ago. because of the history, they will be motivated. it's at wembley. it's a final. there's so many things. it will not be an easy game. so that's what i'm saying. we have to play our game. we have to not to think too much. champions league, i must ask you, is there something about that competition here in manchester, because it's the one that they've so far struggled to achieve? and what would it mean, do you think, to land it? it would mean everything. this is why they brought me, of course, to the club to get this. we don't have to to hide that. so i will do everything i can, i possibly can, to try to make it happen. and yeah, it's my biggest dream. and hopefully dreams do come true.

that was erling haaland talking about his sub—pyjamas. he and his girlfriend were out in the town in their pyjamas until late. if you or i were pictured wearing or pyjamas in a city centre late at night, not a good look. but erling haaland gets away with everything. don’t away with everything. don't underestimate _ away with everything. don't underestimate charlie. - away with everything. don't i underestimate charlie. you're away with everything. don't - underestimate charlie. you're right. very hypoallergenic. _ underestimate charlie. you're right. very hypoallergenic. good _ underestimate charlie. you're right. very hypoallergenic. good for- very hypoallergenic. good for natural sleep. something to think about, charlie.— natural sleep. something to think about, charlie. well, i am not going to but thank— about, charlie. well, i am not going to but thank you. _ about, charlie. well, i am not going to but thank you. don't _ about, charlie. well, i am not going to but thank you. don't blame - about, charlie. well, i am not going to but thank you. don't blame me, | about, charlie. well, i am not going| to but thank you. don't blame me, it was naga's — to but thank you. don't blame me, it was naga's idea. _ to but thank you. don't blame me, it was naga's idea. thank _ to but thank you. don't blame me, it was naga's idea. thank you - to but thank you. don't blame me, it was naga's idea. thank you for - to but thank you. don't blame me, it was naga's idea. thank you for your | was naga's idea. thank you for your advice. would _ was naga's idea. thank you for your advice. would you _ was naga's idea. thank you for your advice. would you like _ was naga's idea. thank you for your advice. would you like to _ was naga's idea. thank you for your advice. would you like to see - was naga's idea. thank you for your advice. would you like to see a - advice. would you like to see a deflated — advice. would you like to see a deflated balloon? how much would you like to _ deflated balloon? how much would you like to see _ deflated balloon? how much would you like to see a _ deflated balloon? how much would you like to see a deflated balloon? this is no ordinary _ like to see a deflated balloon? ti 3 is no ordinary billing. in this state people might not entirely recognise it. it has been the symbol of the bbc for many years.

if you tilt your head to one side, if you cock your head over your left shoulder, it then makes more sense because it is that hot air balloon, it was the globe, a map of the globe, red, orange, white. it was used in the 90s in those trails you saw on the bbc. it has been restored. it has been packed away in a bag for 20 years. it is now in semi display at the midlands air festival. fiona lamdin will explain more. hello, yes, it will be on display when they wind lets it be on display. it has been tethered all morning. the wind has got up. at the moment it is on its side. as one balloonist said earlier, it is better being on the ground. on the ground you wish you were in the sky. on the sky you wish you were on the ground. she has been in a bike for 20 years. they have restored her. i have been taking a look back at how she got here.

it was the defining image on bbc one for almost five years. between 1997 and 2002, a real balloon with over 100 hours of flying time and many more of air time. filmed in 30 different locations, including the scottish highlands, snowdonia, and grey in northern ireland. in 2000, the bbc wanted the building to become more inclusive, so it was filmed with skateboarders, a carnival, and even a bungeejumper. but eventually, in 2002, it was time for it to retire. it but eventually, in 2002, it was time for it to retire.— for it to retire. it has had 100 hours of _ for it to retire. it has had 100 hours of flying _ for it to retire. it has had 100 hours of flying time. - for it to retire. it has had 100 hours of flying time. and - for it to retire. it has had 100 hours of flying time. and jon | for it to retire. it has had 100 i hours of flying time. and jon kay was on the _ hours of flying time. and jon kay was on the last _ hours of flying time. and jon kay was on the last flight _ hours of flying time. and jon kay was on the last flight with - hours of flying time. and jon kay was on the last flight with its - was on the last flight with its pilot, james mossman. being on bbc one wasjust — pilot, james mossman. being on bbc one wasjust something _ pilot, james mossman. being on bbc one wasjust something that - pilot, james mossman. being on bbc one was just something that was - one was just something that was just. _ one was just something that was just. if— one was just something that was just, if never been done before. and 21 ears just, if never been done before. and 21 years ago — just, if never been done before. and 21 years ago it _ just, if never been done before. situc 21 years ago it was put
