6:04 am
determined to show they mean business about a better pay deal and reassurances that artificial intelligence won't be used to do actors out of a job. it's pretty clear to me, just on a very primitive level, that if you can take my face and my body and my voice and make me say or do something that i have no choice about, it's not a good thing! horns blare from la to new york, as the sets went dark, actors took to the streets to explain why they walked out and that their worries are just the same as everyone else. working actors like me and my friends, you know, we're just trying to pay our rent or mortgages and put food on the table, so this will help all of us be able do that. the use of ai and corporate greed, to be quite honest, has put us all in a situation where it'sjust not viable for anyone to have a living — a living at all, especially in the city like los angeles.
6:05 am
the strike was called when union negotiators and the employers failed to reach a deal. the studios said they'd made a historic offer but the union insisted it didn't come close to what they wanted. brian cox, the main star of succession, says this right could get very unpleasant and may last until the end of the year.- until the end of the year. they're t in: to until the end of the year. they're trying to freeze _ until the end of the year. they're trying to freeze us _ until the end of the year. they're trying to freeze us out, _ until the end of the year. they're trying to freeze us out, they - until the end of the year. they're trying to freeze us out, they are l trying to freeze us out, they are going to try to beat us into the ground because there is a lot of money to be made in streaming, and they know that. and their desire is not to particularly want to share it with either the writers all the performers. for tv viewers and movie—goers, it's going to mean thin pickings over the coming months, and possibly years. majorfilms in production, including the avatar and gladiator sequels, may be put on hold indefinitely. this is the most serious hollywood strike in decades and with no new talks scheduled, la is bracing for a long, hot summer of disruption.

peter bowes, bbc news, los angeles. dorset police have concluded that no criminal offences were committed in relation to the death of two people off bournemouth beach in may. two people drowned, a ao—year—old man is —— arrested on suspicion of manslaughter will face no further action. an extreme heat wave which has scorched southern europe this week is said to continue overcoming days. levels rise above a0 celsius in some countries and forecasters are wanting another surge of heat is on the way. as temperatures rise across europe, so do concerns for people's health. in athens, greece's most popular attraction, the acropolis, is being closed during the hottest hours of the day to protect visitors. yeah, the sun is very strong right now. a bit dangerous.
6:07 am
but for many tourists, the once—in—a—lifetime sites are worth the risk. don't know if i will ever be back, so i have to take advantage of the day. greek medics have dealt with people falling ill in the heat, and the greek red cross has maintained a presence. we are here again to give people water and also to give leaflets concerning the high temperature period here in greece. the heatwave is baking countries like italy in temperatures of at least a0 degrees, and experts are warning the heat is deadly. in croatia, this man lost his home to wildfires breaking out across the west coast of the country. all this in the context of 60,000 lives lost in europe's heatwave last year — and another heatwave on its way next week that could bring the continent's hottest ever temperatures.
6:08 am
so, as these animals are doing at berlin zoo, the official advice for people is to stay hydrated and keep out of the sun at the hottest part of the day as the heat continues to rise. louisa pilbeam, bbc news. 0ur reporter guy had to go is in madrid for us this morning. good morning to you, such extraordinary temperatures and looking like potentially more on the way. yes. potentially more on the way. yes, that's right. _ potentially more on the way. yes, that's right. it _ potentially more on the way. yes, that's right, it is _ potentially more on the way. yes, that's right, it is still— potentially more on the way. 193 that's right, it is still relatively cool where i am just outside the spanish capital, but it will heat up throughout the day into the mid 30s here. much of spain, the eastern part of spain is on orange alert today, including parts of the balearic islands, where we could see temperatures up into the high 30s. and the country like many other parts of europe are bracing themselves for that second heatwave, which we are expecting early next
6:09 am
week. it is known as charon, nicknamed charon because of the greek ferryman in the underworld. and we are told that temperatures in some areas of europe, for example in sardinia and sicily could reach up to a8 degrees. in those areas, by tuesday. so there is a lot of concern that we have just had this pretty heavy heatwave in many areas of europe, and were going to go straight into another one in the next couple of days.— hedgecoe in madrid. a firefighter in canada has died after being trapped under a tree while fighting a wildfire. prime ministerjustin trudeau says people should never forget the risks taken by firefighters. the first concert of the promise season last night was disrupted briefly when just stop

6:11 am
temperatures a little below—average but much—needed rainfall yesterday, we had nearly 90 millimetres in parts of cornwall, you can see for many there was a lot of rainfall around the ground softened, and that is down to this area of low pressure, unusually deep for this time of year. the main rain bands now pushing northwards, sitting across scotland and northern ireland, as you can see from the radar picture here. as you saw those isobars tightly packed, so lots of wind and lots of showers. the rain confined to northern scotland later but those wins quite a concern given that at this time of year lots are under canvas out and about with act cavities, —— activities. gayle force winds across highly populated areas in populated areas, and it could bring down some branches, the odd week tree and some slates. this is the rain lingering with strong winds for northern scotland, a vast difference to yesterday, perhaps in west —— respite in the showers
6:12 am
later, but no —— low pressure moving slowly downwards. they could be quite torrential and temperatures around 18— quite torrential and temperatures around i8— 20 celsius. 0vernight, the showers just keep coming through the showers just keep coming through the area of low pressure just sitting across scotland by that stage, it is gradually migrating to the north and east of us, so settled changes in where we will see the strongest winds this weekend. it is 10-1a strongest winds this weekend. it is io—ia so not particularly cold overnight but we haven't got a high humidity. the low pressure tomorrow ascended to the northeast of us means strong winds were scotland, stronger winds were northern ireland, still quite easy on seven areas but not as windy as it was yesterday. as we go into sunday there is another day of sunny spells, perhaps fewer showers in the south and very obviously aware that it is the wimbledon finals this weekend but i do think we will see interruptions because of the showers both today and even tomorrow with you are here, but still packing in the north and west, and because the wind direction are slightly north—west into northern and scotland tomorrow, temperatures will
6:13 am
be one or so degrees down again. so what about into next week? slightly less windy, but we do have another area of low pressure coming in, so there will be further showers or longer spells of rain and again it doesn't look like we will tap into that heat, that intense heat we are seeing across europe. so for our main cities across the uk as you can see into next week, we keep temperatures probably into the low 20s for london, but around average to most parts. but as you have been seeing a course on the news, it is getting hotter again across the western side of europe. i will have more on that through the morning. thank you very much, we will see you later. should we look at today's papers? later. should we look at today's -a ers? , later. should we look at today's .a ers? , , ., later. should we look at today's --aers? , ., ., later. should we look at today's --aers? ., ., , papers? yes, some of the front pages this morning. — papers? yes, some of the front pages this morning, saturday _ papers? yes, some of the front pages this morning, saturday morning - papers? yes, some of the front pages this morning, saturday morning of- this morning, saturday morning of course. the daily mailfocusing on the challenges being faced by holidaymakers heading for mainland europe this summer. the heatwave in many popular destinations.

7:01 am
for disposable vapes to be banned in the uk by next year. the local government association say it's concerned about the way the products appeal to children while also describing them as "almost impossible" to recycle. however, some argue they help smokers quit. laura tra nt reports. a familiar sight on our streets. vapes and the litter left behind. 1.3 million disposable vapes are thrown away every week. that is why the local government association, representing councils in england and wales, wants the government to ban single use e—cigarettes. so what's their problem? the lga says disposable vapes can cause fires in bin lorries. the plastic cannot be separated from the batteries, which makes them really hard to recycle — and when those lithium batteries get crushed they get really hot and become flammable.
7:02 am
those 1.3 million disposable vapes are either going on the floor unfortunately, in which case it causes a significant problem for communities, or it is going into recycling and refuse, which causes a big problem for councils because the lithium batteries within them. so those are the environmental issues. but what about health? more children who have never smoked are choosing to vape, which is why there is concern over their marketing. the british medical association says vaping is a growing epidemic, and is calling on flavoured vapes to be banned, and for them to be sold in plain packaging. however the independent british vape trade association says single use e—cigarettes can help smokers who are trying to quit. at the moment we think single use vaping products,
7:03 am
while they have attracted an audience, latest estimates say it could be up to 20% of under 18's, the thing is it is illegal to sell vaping products to under 185 like any age restricted category. from our perspective these are doing a really good job at helping smokers move across to vaping because they are so simple to use. the government in england is looking for examinations into the environmental and health impacts of vapes, and they are encouraging users to consider how they dispose of them safely. scotland is also considering banning single use vapes and france is expected to prohibit their sale by the end of this year. laura trant, bbc news. in hollywood, actors havejoined writers on picket lines in hollywood, halting production on tv shows and films. they want studios to agree to better pay and job security, and assurances that their work won't be replaced by artificial intelligence. peter bowes reports from los angeles.
7:04 am
newsreader: thousands of actors on strike - i the major stars speaking out tonight. the strike that's gripped america. actors, some rich and famous, others struggling to make ends meet, all cast together on the picket line. horns blare this was day one of what could be a very long stand—off between the actors' union and the studios — a union with 160,000 members determined to show they mean business about a better pay deal and reassurances that artificial intelligence won't be used to do actors out of a job. it's pretty clear to me, just on a very primitive level, that if you can take my face and my body and my voice and make me say or do something that i have no choice about, it's not a good thing! horns blare from la to new york, as the sets went dark, actors took to the streets to explain why they walked out and that their worries are just the same as everyone else.
7:05 am
working actors like me and my friends, you know, we're just trying to pay our rents or mortgages and put food on the table, so this will help all of us be able do that. the use of ai and corporate greed, to be quite honest, has put us all in a situation where it'sjust not viable for anyone to have a living — a living at all, especially in the city like los angeles. the strike was called when union negotiators and the employers failed to reach a deal. the studios said they'd made an "historic offer" but the union insisted it didn't come close to what they wanted. brian cox, the main star of succession, says the strike could get very unpleasant, and may last until the end of the year. they're trying to freeze us out, they are going to try to beat us into the ground because there is a lot of money to be made in streaming, and they know that. and their desire is not to particularly want to share it with either the writers
7:06 am
or the performers. for tv viewers and movie—goers, it's going to mean thin pickings over the coming months, and possibly years. majorfilms in production, including the avatar and gladiator sequels, may be put on hold indefinitely. this is the most serious hollywood strike in decades and with no new talks scheduled, la is bracing for a long, hot summer of disruption. peter bowes, bbc news, los angeles. dorset police have concluded that no criminal offences were committed in relation to the death of two people off bournemouth beach in may. a 17—year—old and a12—year old drowned, a 40—year—old man arrested on suspicion of manslaughter will face no further action. an extreme heat wave which has scorched southern europe this week is said to continue overcoming days. levels rise above 40 celsius in some countries and forecasters are warning another surge
7:07 am
of heat is on the way. louisa pilbeam has more. as temperatures rise across europe, so do concerns for people's health. in athens, greece's most popular attraction, the acropolis, is being closed during the hottest hours of the day to protect visitors. yeah, the sun is very strong right now. a bit dangerous, it feels. but for many tourists, the once—in—a—lifetime sights are worth the risk. don't know if i will ever be back, so i have to take advantage of the day. greek medics have dealt with people falling ill in the heat, and the greek red cross has maintained a presence. we are here again to give people water and also to give leaflets concerning the high temperature period here in greece. the heatwave is baking countries like italy in temperatures of at least 40 degrees, and experts are warning the heat is deadly.
7:08 am
in croatia, this man lost his home to wildfires breaking out across the west coast of the country. all this in the context of 60,000 lives lost in europe's heatwave last year — and another heatwave on its way next week that could bring the continent's hottest ever temperatures. so, as these animals are doing at berlin zoo, the official advice for people is to stay hydrated and keep out of the sun at the hottest part of the day as the heat continues to rise. louisa pilbeam, bbc news. our reporter guy hedgecoe is in madrid for us this morning. good morning to you, we heard about those extraordinary temperatures and looking like potentially more on the way. here in spain, the brunt of the heat is expected to tail off during this
7:09 am
weekend. there are areas in the east of the country, including the balearic islands which are on alert today because of the expected high temperatures, but they are then expected to drop. however spain and other areas as we have heard, including italy and greece and other countries, are expected to see that second heat wave hit straight after this one. so possibly as soon as tuesday. we could see temperatures, we are told, as high as 48 degrees in sardinia and sicily in italy. so here in southern europe people are very much bracing themselves for that, there are concerns obviously about people's help, we had a recent report that said in europe 60,000 people died because of heat last year, so governments are taking measures here in spain, they are warning people to stay indoors where possible, when there are these increases in heat for the high risk
7:10 am
groups in particular, to stay out of the sun, and those warnings are being repeated in all those countries which are affected. thank ou gu . a 19—year—old fire fire —— a 19—year—old firefighter in canada has died after being trapped after being trapped under a tree while fighting a wildfire. prime ministerjustin trudeau says people should never forget the risks taken by firefighters. the first concert of the proms season last night was disrupted briefly whenjust stop oil demonstrators ran on stage in the royal albert hall. the campaign group said it had targeted the event because of what it described as the bbc�*s underwhelming courage of the climate emergency. fireworks lit up the sky across france last night as the country celebrated their annual bastille day. the eiffel tower was bathed in bright colours during the official display in paris.
7:11 am
the french government earlier banned the sale and possession of fireworks after they were used as weapons by protesters last month. we will look now at the weather this morning with helen. people might find it very strange to hear those temperatures not too far away but so different here in britain. it is temperatures not too far away but so different here in britain.— different here in britain. it is a completely — different here in britain. it is a completely different _ different here in britain. it is a completely different set i different here in britain. it is a completely different set up, i different here in britain. it is a i completely different set up, low pressures rushing off the here in the uk, thejet very pressures rushing off the here in the uk, the jet very strong and pressures rushing off the here in the uk, thejet very strong and it is stopping the northward movement of that heat towards the uk. but it is putting north across parts of poland, austria, potentially germany and up into path of scandinavia at the moment. but here, choppy skis and some nasty weather to come for the time of year that is. let's move on through those charts, to look at europe here, it has been hot, those were the sort of temperatures we had yesterday, 44 in bodrum in turkey. this is the head at the moment in
7:12 am
eastern areas, further west you can see it not so much heat at the moment but as we move through time we will see the heat building from africa, it is all coming out of the north of africa, extreme heat here for several weeks but look about across eton and central spain, pushing into central and western parts of the mediterranean. —— eastern and central. but here, unusually windy weather for the time of year, intense and at times sundry downpours and so it will stay feeling cool, even though temperatures are around average. this is why, the area of low pressure looks more like an autumn weather chart to me, and tightly packed isobars mean that is why we have the strong wind. but the morning has that heavy rain across north—eastern scotland, lots of spray and standing water for northern ireland, the showers packing and elsewhere. these other areas likely to be most affected by the strong wind gusts, 40 miles an hour inland, that is unusual anytime, 50—55 miles an hour around the coast with gales. that means the
7:13 am
showers will move quickly but they will be happy in hungary, gathering force at times this afternoon across wales, western england, the mainland of scotland becoming a little less wet with the rain band moving away, some wet and windy weather for the northern isles, heavy slow—moving downpours elsewhere for scotland and northern ireland and moving into north—western areas, perhaps fewer showers come this evening across south—eastern england but for fw 19 we will see the showers today. and we will see the showers today. and we will see the showers in many parts overnight, heavy and hungary, temperatures holding up, all the cloud and wind around but not particularly humid air, that is the good news for those attempting to sleep. the low pressure is on a different position tomorrow, today in the west, tomorrow in the north and east, so the strongest winds transferred to the bulk of scotland and northern ireland, pretty windy in the south, not as windy as today but still gusty and particularly near the showers, but perhaps the worst of those clearing out of the way tomorrow across england and
7:14 am
wales, but packing in thick and fast across scotland and northern ireland around the area of low pressure, particulars scotland could be quite wet once again in the north—west, plus we do need the rain here, but rather cool, 14—15 again, 19—21 elsewhere is on par with today. as for the weekend it stays —— week had it says rather unsettled. it for the weekend it stays -- week had it says rather unsettled.— it says rather unsettled. it might seem that we — it says rather unsettled. it might seem that we do _ it says rather unsettled. it might seem that we do everything i it says rather unsettled. it might seem that we do everything on l it says rather unsettled. it might i seem that we do everything on the internet these days. but there are still more than 2.4 million people who can't complete basic tasks online like opening an internet browser or connecting to a wi—fi network. a house of lords committee says the digital divide is getting worse, and that cost of living is a factor. amy cole reports. i was beginning to feel excluded from so many things that i felt that i have to do something. there is the fear of doing the wrong thing and messing it up. i am from the generation where if you did the wrong thing, you could break it,

7:23 am
so then, and if we take a closer look at the rates in london, the rate doubles. but it's notjust children that are causing concern. it's thought that false claims in the early 20005 that the vaccine could be linked to autism, for example, led to a fall in uptake, and those aged between 19 and 25 are being urged to check whether they're protected. london gp ellie cannonjoins us now. good morning to you. can i ask the first question, really, which is measles. why is it considered different to other childhood diseases like chickenpox? why should we be taking this a lot more seriously? it we be taking this a lot more seriously?— we be taking this a lot more seriousl ? , . . , ., seriously? it is a great question. with chickenpox, _ seriously? it is a great question. with chickenpox, most - seriously? it is a great question. with chickenpox, most children | seriously? it is a great question. i with chickenpox, most children will have a _ with chickenpox, most children will have a mild — with chickenpox, most children will have a mild infection and get lots of spots. — have a mild infection and get lots of spots, but that is it. the trouble _ of spots, but that is it. the trouble with measles is about 20% of people _ trouble with measles is about 20% of people who get measles will end up going _ people who get measles will end up going to _ people who get measles will end up going to hospital, and the potential consequences are incredibly severe. so we _ consequences are incredibly severe. so we are _ consequences are incredibly severe. so we are talking about things like

7:30 am
i knew it was bad, but i didn't know from a clinical point of view how bad it was, but i knew it was bad. severely underweight, unwashed, abused and abandoned. this photograph was taken just before tom somerset how was liberated from what anyone with an ounce of humanity would describe as a living hell. it was quite weird seeing it from a third person point of view. it was just a vindication of, i looked as bad as i felt. that was one point for example where i didn't get showered in five weeks. tam for example where i didn't get showered in five weeks. tom was born three months — showered in five weeks. tom was born three months premature. _ showered in five weeks. tom was born three months premature. he - showered in five weeks. tom was born three months premature. he has- three months premature. he has quadriplegic cerebral palsy and is partially blind. he needs help with almost every daily task. i partially blind. he needs help with almost every daily task.— partially blind. he needs help with almost every daily task. i need help with washing. _ almost every daily task. i need help with washing, dressing, _ almost every daily task. i need help with washing, dressing, i— almost every daily task. i need help with washing, dressing, i get i with washing, dressing, i get hoisted onto the toilet, i can shave myself as long as they give me my electric razor i can do that myself.

7:32 am
christmas or something, they would get me out of bed and get me dressed and cleaned up. but as soon as whatever the event was was done, i would be put straight back into bed. and left there. i thought there was no avenue that i have that can circumvent george and sarah, because it is not that i didn't want to get out of bed, ijust had no means or ability to. he out of bed, i 'ust had no means or abili to. . . out of bed, i 'ust had no means or abili to. ., , .~' out of bed, i 'ust had no means or abili to. ., , a ., ability to. he was stuck in that room, ability to. he was stuck in that room. he _ ability to. he was stuck in that room, he didn't _ ability to. he was stuck in that room, he didn't go _ ability to. he was stuck in that room, he didn't go anywhere, | ability to. he was stuck in that i room, he didn't go anywhere, he didn't— room, he didn't go anywhere, he didn't do— room, he didn't go anywhere, he didn't do anything, his money was spent _ didn't do anything, his money was spent it— didn't do anything, his money was spent it is— didn't do anything, his money was spent. it is despicable and it shouldn't have happened and it shouldn't— shouldn't have happened and it shouldn't have happened and it shouldn't have carried on that length — shouldn't have carried on that length of— shouldn't have carried on that length of time. tom said he felt like he — length of time. tom said he felt like he wasjust being kept alive. despite — like he wasjust being kept alive. despite fears of retribution, tom eventually confided in friends online, deleting the messages immediately afterwards. alarmed, one of them rang his mum, and so began a very delicate rescue operation. i very delicate rescue operation. i got a call from a social worker, very delicate rescue operation. i got a call from a social worker, he said "do you want to leave", and before he could even finish a sentence i said oh my god, yes. 0k,

7:44 am
this is a low pressure driving in those showers and strong winds. this is where the more persistent rain sits across the northern scotland, western parts of northern ireland, you can see the showers are getting going really quickly at the moment. the concern i think today across the southern half of the uk is the strength of the wind. gales around the coast but england, gusts of a0 miles an hour, plus, unusually in the autumn, across the southeast in particular. not a great idea under canvas, the gusty winds are feature from the north of scotland and the west of northern ireland, any of these showers when they come along could be heavy and sunbury, they will be quite intense. the atmosphere is very turbulent at the moment. but between the showers and probably later in the day across southeast england and east anglia we might see some showers, but the most of us on par with yesterday. lots of heavy showers lining up, longer smell of rain at times lingering for the northern isles, even this evening and overnight, and lots of showers continue through the night so it will not be cold, 10—1a
7:45 am
celsius, but not a great deal of humidity either, not the baking heat we are seeing further south across europe. the low pressure brings us more of an arctic flow tomorrow across northern and western areas, strong winds to scotland and northern ireland as the low re— orientated self if you like, still quite windy in the south but not as much as today but it enhances the showers as those come along, taps the worst moving away from tomorrow for england and wales but lots more showers for scotland and at times northern ireland as well. nowhere exempt really from catching a shower, so for the men's final day could see the shower around, a more pleasant, comfortable playing 18— 21 celsius. but next week looks as if we will see the winds ease but again it will not be hot, we will see some sunshine between the showers which hopefully will be fewer we perhaps original high—pressure for the day on monday. for many of of us even into next week it is still an

7:47 am
whom allegations had been made still not revealed, the corporation was in something of a crisis, as its director general, tim davie, discussed in a radio interview with sarah montague. you are balancing serious allegations, duty of care, privacy issues, and legitimate public interest. and how do you navigate that, fairly, calmly, and do due diligence? it is a very difficult and complex situation. tuesday was the fourth day in a row that tv news bulletins and the bbc news website had led on the story. not only was the presenter�*s name not in the public arena, but few other facts were available either. the precise nature of the complaint, the presenter�*s response, or what bbc management knew, when. given that paucity of information, some viewers like chris unger couldn't understand the priority given to the case.
7:48 am
and david robinson suggested: who it was was revealed on wednesday's news at six as culture editor katie razzell described. this will come as a huge shock to viewers. we've had a statement within the last few minutes from vicki flint, who is the wife of huw edwards, who named him as the bbc presenter facing allegations and said about her husband that, "he was suffering from serious mental health issues "and is now receiving in—patient hospital care." later that evening, other bbc news outlets aired new allegations about huw edwards, and the continued coverage that evening prompted two viewers to send us their thoughts. you covered him for 18 minutes
7:49 am
before i turned off, and he has just asked for privacy. and it was through his wife who said he's in hospital care. he's obviously at a really low point to even have to receive that kind of care. and no matter how open you are with your mental health, you do not, at your lowest point, want to be nationally covered for hours on end about the state of your mental health. it seems that whenever the bbc covers the situation involving either the corporation or one of its own, there's a tendency to go into overdrive, often with speculative journalism. matters that should be addressed internally or aired on the news. on wednesday night, the metropolitan police stated there was no criminal case to answer, and his wife had also made a statement and asked for privacy. but the bbc news coverage
7:50 am
on this story was nonstop. huw edwards and his family must feel hounded by the very corporation that employs him, and by some of his colleagues. by thursday, the story had dropped out of the bbc�*s headlines and some compliments were coming in for the coverage such as this from matthew brown: and rachel gunn was one of a number of viewers expressing their sympathy for huw edwards. after everything that's happened and he's ended up in hospital, i just feel so sorry for him. i'm very sad about the whole situation. i'm a real believer of people's private lives, and i do really think that he does have a private life
7:51 am
and that we didn't really need to know all of this about him. he's a brilliant presenter. so i just wanted to say that. i hope huw is... ..soon going to be a better and my best wishes to him and his family. last week, the 75th anniversary of the national health service was marked by a good deal of media coverage and some celebratory events, including a special ceremony at westminster abbey, exemplifying how for some the nhs is treated as something of a religion. the bbc�*s health editor hugh pym provided this analysis on the news at six. events were held around the uk to mark the 75th anniversary, including that service at westminster abbey with political and health leaders and nhs staff. but it comes at a time of intense debate about the future of the health service, with increasing strain on the front line and mounting frustration
7:52 am
for patients. the bbc�*s contribution to the anniversary included a special edition of newsnight, which included a range of views on the nhs and culminated in a choir singing happy birthday. singing # happy birthday to you... but that decision was greeted with ridicule in some quarters, with the former bbc presenter andrew neil tweeting: journalist george eaton added: but james dollman couldn't see a problem: for their part, newsnight told us: "the programme included full
7:53 am
7:54 am
well, let's speak to the health editor for bbc news, hugh pym. thank you for coming to the newswatch studio. the birthday cake, the singing, some viewers feel that that on the news a quasi—religious status for the nhs isn't right when there are really serious problems, and you should be examining them more. is that a fair criticism? well, that piece you used a clip from, which i did on the day. yes, we did start with the westminster abbey service. i should say it had 1,500 nhs staff there, as well as all the main political parties, and there was royal representation as well. so it was quite an important moment to at least note. but i did say, pretty quickly, it comes at a time of intense strain on the service and services under real pressure. so i suppose you need to combine both thoughts. it is a moment 75th anniversary and there is still quite a lot of pride in the service founded in 19a8, providing free
7:55 am
at the point of use health care, making a massive difference to people's lives. reflecting on that, but certainly looking to the future with all the huge challenges that there are right now. equally, there are other viewers, you won't be surprised to hear, who feel the bbc is far too negative about the nhs. how would you answer them? well, i think the comments we've heard are we're not being critical enough or we're being too critical, and i think we need to reflect on those. but it shows there are differing views. there were two reports from think tanks in the run—up to the anniversary and on the day itself, the main health think tanks which broadly concluded that — and these think tanks are very much for the idea of an nhs — that it was in a critical situation, services were under extreme pressure, it was underperforming on outcomes like heart attacks and strokes, but that there was rock solid support for it. so what do we do from here? so i suppose we're just noting comment out there,
7:56 am
and we hear a lot from staff on the front line how frustrated they are, how difficult they're finding things with trying to look at positive long—term solutions and the debates that are going on at the moment. it feels like the nhs has been a politicalfootball it's always been. and i wonder if from your point of view, things feel particularly contentious now about the nhs and how it's politically treated? i think what's getting more and more difficult is to reflect differing sides of the debate. there are some people who feel very strongly this model is not working. we need something different. we've seen these huge queues in a&e and we've seen these long waiting lists. we've seen not very good outcomes for certain health conditions, including cancer, compared to other countries. we need to change this. with another side of the debate, well, what do we want to do? let's look at some of the positive things that the nhs is doing again in the week that we had the anniversary or within days
7:57 am
of it, we reported a really positive initiative involving paramedics and hospital staff in northeast london, working together with consultants, talking from the hospital on a phone or video link to the paramedics about keeping people out of hospital. and we were ready to report that as some initiative on the grassroots level, which is being done to try and improve things. hugh pym, thank you so much. thank you. thank you for all your comments this week. if you want to share your opinions about what you see or hear on bbc news, on tv, radio, online and social media, e—mail us. you can find us on twitter. you can call us on 03700106676. do have a look at previous interviews on our website. that's all from us. now, we're off air for a few weeks, but we will be back at the very start of september with a slightly different

you are watching bbc breakfast. we've been talking about disposable vapes, after councils add caught by a blanket ban across england and wales, because of their impact on our health and environment. it is estimated 1.3 million of the devices are thrown away each week in the uk. in scotland, the government are considering a total ban after an urgent review was carried out by zero waste to scotland into their environmental impact. the government in england has launched a call for

it is notjust about technology is getting out of hand. it is not just about the technology is getting out of hand. it is notjust about the nicotine in the liquid, but also, other substances being used and vapes, so i think we need to be really careful in protecting our children and young people from this harm. but in protecting our children and young people from this harm.— in protecting our children and young people from this harm. but with any new product — people from this harm. but with any new product is _ people from this harm. but with any new product is an _ people from this harm. but with any new product is an ongoing _ people from this harm. but with any new product is an ongoing process, | new product is an ongoing process, as it evolves?— as it evolves? yes, of course the technology _ as it evolves? yes, of course the technology will _ as it evolves? yes, of course the technology will evolve, - as it evolves? yes, of course the technology will evolve, but - as it evolves? yes, of course the technology will evolve, but we i as it evolves? yes, of course the | technology will evolve, but we go back to what is behind this technology, make smoking obsolete, reduces the tobacco home and i think the unintended consequences of this new technology needs looking at. so essentially the baits, as an idea to try to _ essentially the baits, as an idea to try to get — essentially the baits, as an idea to try to get people away from cigarettes, is a good idea, but we are not— cigarettes, is a good idea, but we are not in— cigarettes, is a good idea, but we are not in a — cigarettes, is a good idea, but we are not in a public scenario at the moment? — are not in a public scenario at the moment? , ., , , . ., , ., ., moment? goes and especially not in a aood moment? goes and especially not in a good situation — moment? goes and especially not in a good situation when _ moment? goes and especially not in a good situation when it _ moment? goes and especially not in a good situation when it comes - moment? goes and especially not in a good situation when it comes to - moment? goes and especially not in a good situation when it comes to our. good situation when it comes to our children and young people, who are being hooked onto this and there are so many wider implications, notjust health implications, but implication in terms of education and indeed what actually is in this new technology that is beyond an e

in paris, she beat by notshe actually won in 200 metres race. a new championship record, regaining the title she last won in london six years ago. that is all the support from us for now. just to mention a big day for cricket in the t20 finals, at hampshire, the club could be the first one to retain the title and they take on essex in championship matches in birmingham. but is it from asthma now. thank you. whether... a big weekend this weekend, you are saying that in wimbledon that court has a roof, so not quite so important, but helen, a lot of people on henman hill who are going to want to watch it, so are they going to get wet? i'm afraid they are going to get wet and for cricket is not great either. these are the shark clouds bring behind me at saint david's in pembrokeshire, a sign of what is to come and the devil will be in the
8:46 am
detail today. come and the devil will be in the detailtoday. it come and the devil will be in the detail today. it certainly will be a showery picture, so don't think anywhere will escape. yesterday we had a month's worth of rain and the seasonis had a month's worth of rain and the season is windy, another big talking point. those tightly packed as above me the strong winds in the south—west, and developing further east and we have yesterday's rain still with us across the north of scotland, migrating away from the mainland, but it will stay quite wet in the northern aisles, we have these weather systems sweeping and with outbreaks of lengthier showers, look at the strength of those winds, more akin to autumn injuly. these could cause some disruptions, damaging some roof slates, bringing down the odd weak tree, certainly some branches. a windy day across northern scotland as well, but pretty beaded detail on exactly where the showers will be will be will be difficult, but we do have thunderstorm warnings out the northern england and scotland, torrential downpours, sprays, standing water, hail as well and some schooling winds with the
8:47 am
showers. it is windy enough anyway. in areas, as i say, so it will feel rather cool, temperatures though read about the average for the time of year. showers just keep coming through the night, what we're finding is low pressure gradually migrating into the north sea, so the orientation of both the strongest winds and showers will change subtly through the night into tomorrow, temperatures that are academic overnight tonight, but that low pressure into scotland means we will see lots of unsettled weather here, lots of rain, showers, longer spells of rain, heavy, thundery downpours, perhaps fewer across wales, slightly less thundery, the strongest winds north of northern scotland and northern ireland, but still a blustery day, but perhaps thankfully dry spells with a bit more sunshine in between across england and wales, in between across england and wales, in particular. so it is a really unsettled picture, so once again temperatures tomorrow will struggle, particularly in the north—west as we have a north—westerly wind me down from the attic here. so 21 degrees
8:48 am
is the high and that is the sort of trend we follow into next week. it might not be as windy, but we do have another area of low pressure rolling in, so sunny spells and showers then turned to longer spells of rain, tuesday or wednesday time, so these irb forecasts are looking in cities, again the temperatures maximum into the low 20s for many, so we are not tapping into that extreme heat we are seeing across europe, where once again across western and central areas of the temperatures are going to escalate as we go through to next week. so it is the intensity and the persistence that continues here. helen, thank you very much. how big is the entourage you have and whether, how big is your entourage? you mean how many people are in here this morning? you know, your people doing your thing? morning? you know, your people doing yourthing? i have morning? you know, your people doing your thing? i have been here on my own this morning until recently. i have got company now expect there you go. rita ora is in the studio with us this morning. morning, rita! good morning! haifa

our headlines today: a call for a ban on disposable vapes — councils in england say they cause litter problems and appeal too strongly to children. as tens of thousands of actors go on strike in hollywood — a warning the action could continue into next year. no end to the searing heat in southern europe — forecasters say a second heatwave is on the way. a huge day ahead at wimbledon later — a new name will be on the winners board. in the women's final — it's ons jabeur and marketa vondrousova battling for their first grand slam title. there will be unusually windy weather forjuly, there will be unusually windy weatherforjuly, with there will be unusually windy weather forjuly, with downpours and temperatures a bit below par. more for you through the morning. councils across england and wales are calling for disposable vapes to be bound in are calling for disposable vapes to be bound in the are calling for disposable vapes to be bound in the uk are calling for disposable vapes to be bound in the uk by are calling for disposable vapes to be bound in the uk by next are calling for disposable vapes to
9:01 am
be bound in the uk by next year. the local government association say it's concerned about the way the products appeal to children — while also describing them as "almost impossible" to recycle. however, some argue they help smokers quit. laura tra nt reports. a familiar sight on our streets: vapes and the litter left behind. 1.3 million disposable vapes are thrown away every week. that is why the local government association, representing councils in england and wales, wants the government to ban single use e—cigarettes. so what's their problem? the lga says disposable vapes can cause fires in bin lorries. the plastic cannot be separated from the batteries, which makes them really hard to recycle — and when those lithium batteries get crushed they get really hot and become flammable. those 1.3 million disposable vapes are either going on the floor unfortunately, in which case it causes a significant problem for communities,
9:02 am
or it is going into recycling and refuse, which causes a big problem for councils because of the lithium batteries within them. so those are the environmental issues. but what about health? more children who have never smoked are choosing to vape, which is why there is concern over their marketing. the british medical association says vaping is a growing epidemic, and is calling on flavoured vapes to be banned, and for them to be sold in plain packaging. however the independent british vape trade association says single—use e—cigarettes can help smokers who are trying to quit. we wouldn't advocates that that is the right thing to do. at the moment we think single—use vaping products, while they have attracted an audience, latest estimates say it could be up to 20% of under 18's, the thing is it is illegal to sell vaping products to under 18s like any age—restricted category.
9:03 am
from our perspective, these are doing a really good job at helping smokers move across to vaping because they are so simple to use. the government in england is looking for examinations into the environmental and health impacts of vapes, and they are encouraging users to consider how they dispose of them safely. scotland is also considering banning single use vapes and france is expected to prohibit their sale by the end of this year. laura trant, bbc news. we are 21! hours into the us actors strike. actors havejoined writers on picket lines in hollywood, halting production is on tv shows and films. they want studios to agree to better pay and job security, and assurances their work going to be replaced by artificial intelligence. here is this report from los angeles.
9:04 am
the strike that has gripped america. actors— some rich and famous, others struggling to to make ends meet. all cast together on the picket line. this was day one of what could be a very long stand—off between the actors union and the studios. a union with 160,000 members determined to show they mean business. about a better pay deal, and reassurances that artificial intelligence won't be used to do actors out of a job. it is pretty clear to me, just on a very primitive level, that if you can take my face and body and voice, and make me say or do something that i have no choice about, it is not a good thing. from la to new york, as the sets went dark, actors went to the streets to explain why they walked out, and that their worries are just
9:05 am
the same as everyone else. working actors like me and my friends, we are just trying to pay rents and mortgages, or put food on the table. this will help all of us be able to do that. the use of ai and corporate greed to be honest, has put us all in a situation where it isjust not viable for anyone to have a living at all, especially in a city like los angeles. the strike was called when union negotiators and employers failed to reach a deal. the studio said they had made a historic offer, but the union insisted it didn't come close to what they wanted. brian cox, the main star of succession, says the strike could get very unpleasant, and may last until the end of the year. they are trying to freeze us out. they will try to beat us into the ground, because there is a lot of money to be made in streaming, and they know that. their desire is not to particularly want to share with either the writers or performers. for tv viewers and moviegoers, it'll be thin pickings
9:06 am
over the coming months and possibly years. majorfilms in production, including the avatar and gladiator sequels may be put on hold indefinitely. this is the most serious hollywood strike in decades, and with no new talks scheduled, la is bracing for a long hot summer of disruption. dorset police have concluded that no criminal offences were committed in relation to the deaths of two people off bournemouth beach in may. i7—year—old joe abbess and i2—year—old sunnah khan both drowned. a a0 year—old man — arrested on suspicion of manslaughter — will face no further action. an extreme heatwave, which has scorched southern europe this week, is set to continue over the coming days. levels rose above a0 celcius in some countries and forecasters are warning that another surge of heat is on the way. louisa pilbeam has the latest. as temperatures rise across europe, so do concerns for people's health.
9:07 am
in athens, greece's most popular attraction, the acropolis, is being closed during the hottest hours of the day to protect visitors. yeah, the sun is very strong right now. it's a bit dangerous, it feels like. but for many tourists, once in a lifetime sites are worth the risk. don't know if i'll ever be back. so we have to take advantage of the day. greek medics have dealt with people falling ill in the heat and the greek red cross has maintained a presence. we're here again to give people water and also to give leaflets concerning the high temperature period here in greece. the heat wave is baking countries like italy in temperatures of at least a0 degrees. and experts are warning the heat is deadly. in croatia,
9:08 am
this man lost his home to wildfires breaking out across the west coast of the country. all this in the context of 60,000 lives lost in europe's heatwave last year, and another heat wave on its way next week that could bring the continent's hottest ever temperatures. so as these animals are doing at berlin zoo, the official advice for people is to stay hydrated and keep out of the sun at the hottest part of the day as the heat continues to rise. louisa pilbeam, bbc news. a i9—year—old firefighter has died in canada after becoming trapped under a tree while tackling a wildfire. there are more than 900 currently burning across the country. the prime minister, justin trudeau, said people should "neverforget the risks" taken by firefighters. the first concert of the proms season last night was disrupted briefly whenjust stop oil demonstrators ran on stage at the royal albert hall. the campaign group said it had targeted the event because of what it described
9:09 am
as the bbc�*s underwhelming coverage of the 'climate emergency�*. fireworks lit up the sky across france last night as the country celebrated its annual bastille day. the eiffel tower was bathed in bright colours during the official display in paris. the french government earlier banned the sale and possession of fireworks after they were used as weapons by protestors last month. spectacular pictures from paris. here is helen. i am looking at the map behind you, and it is scorching in parts of europe, isn't it? yesterday's high temperature i have seen was across turkey, but we have the high 30s in italy. that he today has caused red warnings, the highest level of warnings you can have, across parts of the balkans. stretching up into the alpine regions and further north into poland. and as we have been hearing,
9:10 am
as we go into next week, whilst we perhaps see the temperatures dipping a few degrees in eastern parts of europe, they are maintained across much of italy, in that heat builds again. it is all coming out of north africa, where temperatures have been extreme for several weeks now. 50 celsius in places, and we could see temperatures getting into the mid a0s next week across many parts of southern europe. it is the persistence of this heat, even if temperatures dipping back a couple of degrees by day and night, it is just incessant. very different picture here in cornwall, where we can see a rainbow in the distance. we have thunderstorm warnings out across scotland and northern england. we have wind warnings out across england and wales. it doesn't really look like july across england and wales. it doesn't really look likejuly outside the window for many others, with this area of low pressure bearing down. still, yesterday's rain across the north of scotland. we had months worth of rain for many yesterday, and it was soaking in many areas.
9:11 am
whilst that persistent rain pulls out of the way, we will see some of its pulling back across ireland, and moving across the irish sea to come backin moving across the irish sea to come back in the form of showers. these are wary expecting the strongest winds today. not great news. large battering waves across some of our coastline, with gales, battering waves across some of our coastline, with gates, and that could cause disruption, though sort of wind strengths. couples with the really torrential downpours which could occurjust about really torrential downpours which could occur just about anywhere. that bonds are still mourning across the northern part of the uk, but we will see heavy showers rattling across the uk, with that brisk wind. perhaps diminishing today across parts of the south—east and north, east anglia, but not the winds. temperature is about average, and through the night time, so through the north—east, more showers rattling around. heavy downpours continuing to rattle overnight, but the strong winds across urban areas, and its recently strong winds overnight, because is that low reorientate itself, you can see the
9:12 am
tightly packed isobars coming across scotland and northern ireland, and some of that wind coming down from the artic, so it is a chilly filling day, and still brisk winds in the south, perhaps not as strong as today, but still with gusts of 35 miles an hour, and still some showers, but perhaps not as many as today, but there will certainly be the continued risk of those downpours, especially in the north and the west. we keep this really unsettled looking picture as we go into next week. perhaps you are showers, but temperatures like will see tomorrow, around about average for the time of the year. the outlook into next week, less windy, but further spells of rain and showers, and still not as hot. sarah, charlie.— showers, and still not as hot. sarah, charlie. it sarah, charlie. thank you, helen. it is 915. an interesting _ sarah, charlie. thank you, helen. it is 915. an interesting story - sarah, charlie. thank you, helen. it is 915. an interesting story for i sarah, charlie. thank you, helen. it is 915. an interesting story for you i is 915. an interesting story for you this morning. zoe coles first noticed she was struggling with her speech and mobility early last year. she was diagnosed with a neurological disorder —
9:13 am
but six weeks ago, things took a very unusual turn. originally from lincolnshire, one day zoe woke up with a completely different accent. simon spark has been to meet her. i have something called a functional neurological disorder. basically, that is that my brain isn't receiving and sending signals. they're all muddled. this was zoe speaking normally when we interviewed her last year. so i've been diagnosed with functional neurological disorder... but this is her now, speaking in a welsh accent, which started six weeks ago. i've just developed this welsh accent. it's been all day. i've never in my life been able to speak welsh. i'm on day six of speaking welsh. six days ago, i woke up with this accent. excuse the state of me. i got a stinking cold, but i'm still welsh. it's been about three weeks now, and i'm beginning to think this is going to stay. zoe has been documenting her rare neurological disorder since the beginning of last year.
9:14 am
i've had slurred speech. definitely. . . . may have lost. . . my speech. i went mute for four days, couldn't speak at all. my leg gives way on me sometimes. i've had tics, all sorts. but having a different accent, completely taking over and even changing her personality is another first for her. a lot of people ask me, where are you from? are you from cardiff? bristol? i've had northern ireland. i've had all sorts of questions of where i'm from. and then i have to feel i feel like i have to explain what happened. and i get like an anxiety over it because some people... it's not known about. it's really rare. so people don't believe that it's a thing and they say, "oh, she's faking it or she's making it up." there's no way. no, not a chance on earth i'd
9:15 am
be able to keep this going for six weeks. ridiculous. her voice did come back once. i'm speaking normal, i took a turn for the worse, last night. but when she felt better, her welsh accent was back. her doctor has made a referral to an fnd specialist, but it was refused because she wasn't in the right catchment area. so now she feels stuck and has started her own appeal for help. something is obviously going wrong up in my brain, like something's obviously not right, because who on earth wakes up speaking a totally different accent? so i would like to work with somebody that can help me and then we can help others, like i want to help everyone that's got this. it's, you know, i'm not the only person, but let's start with me. i'll be a guinea pig. simon spark, bbc news. we are nowjoined on the sofa by nick miller, emeritus professor at newcastle university and author of 'foreign accent syndromes: the stories people have to tell�* good morning, professor. thank you forjoining good morning, professor. thank you for 'oinin- us. good morning, professor. thank you forjoining

9:22 am
the less damage it causes, and that obviously is better for patients, but also for the nhs. at the moment, endometriosis is believed to cost the uk economy £8.2 billion a year. so it has a huge impact. but compared to a lot of other diseases, it's had a tiny amount of funding. it's estimated one in ten women are affected by endometriosis, a condition where tissue similar to womb lining grows elsewhere in the body. it can cause chronic pain, heavy bleeding and, if untreated, organ damage and infertility. this can be taken to help with bleeding... so sufferers like becky and chanel face a lifetime on medication. this helps with pain, but it can literally burn a hole in your stomach lining. it took chanel 15 years to get a diagnosis of endometriosis. becky — more than two decades. i've lost so manyjobs due to not being able to work with it.
9:23 am
it's impacted what i can do with my children. swimming and things like that, going on holidays — we can't because i never knew how bad i was going to be, bleeding—wise. just pure gaslighting from doctors telling me that i was making it up, i was drug seeking, the pain was in my head. so when i found out that actually, my organs were stuck together and i had cysts and it was all over my bowel... if i could have gone into my gp surgery at the age of eight or even a little bit older and they did a urine test, that could have cut years off my diagnosis time. both becky and chanel have already donated samples to the research team, but more are needed, especially from healthy women who have regular periods. and they could be the key to a potentially life—changing test. anne marie tasker, bbc news, hull. this is breakfast. we're on bbc one until ten o'clock this morning, when matt tebbutt takes over

9:40 am
this playhouse, which cost £38 million of public money and was meant to involve the public of knowsley, as well as shakespeare fans from all over. for this first year we have really concentrated on building our local audiences and really helping them to see that the theatre is their theatre and that is their resource. it is the jewel in the crown for knowsley and the impact it has had on the local community has been fantastic too. setting up for this weekend in the wooden cockpit theatre, the main space based on the 16th century prescott playhouse, is midsummer mechanics. a family show based on midsummer night's dream, it is being put on by shakespeare's globe theatre in london. to her kate. to her widow! 100 marks my kate does put her down! and outside in the performance garden tonight will be the taming of the shrew, put on by the prescott—based imaginarium young shakespeare company. the people of prescott are really taking to it. it is a focal point for them. they have been looking for something and it is here now, you know, and the ability to come and enjoy it and from what i can see they are.
9:41 am
i was fortunate enough to be the first person to perform shakespeare on the stage... ashley grew up around prescott and is now a writer, a performer, a campaigner and he co—created the opening weekend at shakespeare north. i performed, "all the world is a stage and all the "men and women merely players." give it a go, mate, honestly... you'll often find ashley encouraging local people to use shakespeare north because one of the reasons the playhouse was sited in prescott is because the borough of knowsley is one of the most income deprived in england. even the people who once told me they would never engage with it, they have no interest in shakespeare, those people are now coming in their droves and visiting here on a regular basis. the economic impact of the theatre looks obvious. prescott has now become home to bars and restaurants and cafes who cater to the shakespeare north audiences. a lot of people that come into this bar are coming here before they go to a theatre show. or after a theatre show, so come in for drinks and food.
9:42 am
it gets really busy, especially through the week. it has made a difference, especially through the week. because when they finish, people come here or they go to the restaurants before, so it does make a big difference. but here do they see local people using shakespeare north? there are definitely a good mix of local people have come from the local area and people who have travelled in, but i would personally say more people have travelled in. i do know a few people that have gone, but i l wouldn't say a lot of people that i know have gone. - my passion is to make sure that we do even more. so you want them to go even further? i want them to go even further and i am always saying this and it is going to take a lot of work. they are trying to get local people in here by allowing people to choose the price of some tickets, which can be as low as £3. having cafe events also get people in, as well as having things like spoken word nights and shakespeare—themed hip—hop workshops. we need to shout about ourselves a bit more and i'm hoping that this year we can do that, not just on a regional scale, but also on a national scale as well. why, there is a wench! come on and kiss me, kate.

so it really unstable weather atmosphere at the moment, which is why seeing the amount of showers and similarly tomorrow, but subtle changes, our low pressure moving to the north, so instead we have the strongest winds across scotland and northern ireland, chilly is well with north—westerly and chilly as well, not as windy as today, probably fewer showers, but still a showery picture and they will still be some downpours with hail and thunder, but noticeably in the north again because we are around that area or closer to that area of low pressure, just 14 with that north—westerly winds coming onshore into the question as tomorrow. 20—21 into the question as tomorrow. 20—21 in sheltered spots with somejohn child. it should be a bit of sunshine at wimbledon of today and tomorrow and into next week some sunny spells again and another area of low pressure next week, but it does look really unsettled at the moment this is how the city forecasts are looking, a bit more sunshine and a few showers we might creep into the low 20s, but about
