6:27 am
background, as there is for any story, and a lot of people are learning these things about spanish football after the luis rubiales incident when he kissed jenni hermoso, what he called a consensual pack and what 80 plus spanish players have said was absolutely not, including herself, and they have refused to play for the spanish team. world champion is now, of course, because of the conduct after the final from the spanish fa president, who yesterday in a press conference railed against his critics and said i am not going to resign, even though all the spanish papers yesterday suggested that he might at this emergency meeting. so thatis might at this emergency meeting. so that is all the context from luis rubiales's point of view, but spain has problems not only with sexism, with racism, and all those stories about the real madrid player last year he was consistently targeted by spanish bands in la liga, but also in terms of sexism there was a meeting recently involving a cycling competition where the female winner of that race was given a food

6:29 am
sexism is very prevalent, unfortunately. it is something that is very normalised here, which is why you have someone like rubiales basically saying he doesn't understand what he did wrong, and he feels as though he clearly didn't do anything wrong stop hopefully if any kind of good can come from this whole situation, it's that we do have a reflection as a society as a whole and do try to find a better way forward is as equals. chelsea earned their first premier league win of the season last night, beating luton town by 3—0. raheem sterling was on the scoresheet twice, and this was his first. nicolas jackson made it three with his first goal since signing in the summer. but it was sterling's performance that caught the eye of many, including chelsea boss mauricio pochettino. i think it is really important for us, because he is a player that has the experience and the quality, scoring goals and assists and everything he can do to help the
6:30 am
team to win games. to the world athletics championships in budapest now, where the 200 metres finals brought hope but ultimately disappointment. partly because of the medal chances going into the races. zharnel hughes finished fourth in the men's 200m. usa's noah lyles took gold to complete a sprint double after also winning the men's 100m. that was usa's eighth gold medal — the best tally so far at the worlds. hughes says he'll be using this disappointment as motivation at next year's olympics in paris. next year is going to be something special again. next year is going to be something specialagain. i'm putting next year is going to be something special again. i'm putting it out there. me losing to these guys tonight has made me a lot more determined to come back again. dina asher—smith won this event in 2019, but finished 7th in the women's 200m final with fellow brit daryll neita in 5th. jamaica's shericka jackson stormed to victory in 21.41 seconds, that is a championship record.
6:31 am
jackson was just 0.07 off the world record. neita clocked a personal best. and while she was two places below, asher smith still felt positive after the race. sometimes when life hands you lemons you've got to make lemonade. i'm looking forward to paris next year and really motivated because i know when i am at my best, i am among the medals and up there, that is where i'm at. just done the best with the cards i've been dealt this week. 800 metres final. gemma reekie won her semifinal and she'll be joined by medal hope keeley hodgkinson, who also came first in her semi despite a late surge by the usa's nia akins. hodgkinson realised just in time — the final is one of the last events of the championships tomorrow night. tonight there's a chance for a medal in the men's and women's 4 x 100 metres relays. both teams sealed their spots in their respective finals later.
6:32 am
the men's team finished in the top three of their heats, the women's team went one better, coming second, with the team of asha phillip, imani lansiquot, bianca williams and annie tagoe finishing behind the jamaican four. and could call on both asher smith and neita for that final tonight too. a metal hope in both of those relays. there's been a lot of debate around plans to introduce a tourism tax in wales — with measures set to come into force within the next two years. the system is already in place in cities across europe. 0ur reporter, liam evans has been to spain to see how it's being enforced abroad. fresh food, busy street and beaches that stretch for miles. it might just be the perfect holiday. but how much extra would you be willing to pay the local community to enjoy it? valencia's beauty brings more than 2 million people here every year, but

6:36 am
hello from the malibu barbie cafe in new york city. i'm tom brook, and welcome to talking movies. in today's's programme we review blockbuster season. hi barbie! we look at how barbie so thoroughly will one over audiences. barbie. icon, timeless icon. i actually wanted to watch today but they sold out. you are the man that gave them i the power to destroy themselves. the season's other big hit 0ppenheimer brought great acclaim to its director christopher nolan — we will hearfrom him. when i looked at 0ppenheimer�*s story, it's the most dramatic story i have ever encountered.
6:37 am
but 0ppenheimer and barbie were not met withjoy everywhere. we look at the resistance to each in different parts of the world. translation: man or boys might make feminine gestures, - they might want to put on nail polish, or earrings and other gestures inspired by barbie. everyone has a barbie story and the stories are about us. we revisit a classic documentary exploring the origins of barbie and the emergence of barbie—mania. barbie was the doll with breasts, and legs. also the other films that performed well in blockbuster season, including tom cruise's mission: impossible 7. this movie, it is an epic adventure. all that and more in this special blockbuster review edition of talking movies. margot! barbie, in which margot robbie and ryan gosling give excellent
6:38 am
performances playing characters inspired by world—famous plastic dolls is a lot of fun — it's a thoughtful and intelligent satire. for me, at any rate, it could have been a bit deeper, but that said it certainly generated a must—see cachet. barbie was more than just a blockbuster that broke several records — not only did this pink event movie boast masses of talent, it was a real event movie, a rarity these movies that allow people to really enjoy a trip to the cinema, and it tapped into a genuinejoy many have a plastic doll. it's like the only toy i used to play with when i was a girl. i used to dress them and do their hair and barbie was my thing, so obviously now i have a daughter, i want to see it with her, and i love barbie. i got so excited, i told my mum, "can you please get tickets?" and i was so excited. barbie really benefited
6:39 am
from barbenheimer, a phrase that emerged in social media, it became a cultural meme which helped fuel interest in two very different films, barbie and 0ppenheimer opening at the same time. the early barbenheimer effect was because the well—known ip of barbie plus the well known ip of christopher nolan were put together in a way that really sparked the imagination. barbie also distinguished itself in that it is a film defined by a director's artistic vision that succeeded in reaching a mass audience — quite different from the typical, often tired, lacklustre hollywood corporate blockbusters we have grown accustomed to. it really put the filmmaker, greta gerwig on the map. greta gerwig is now absolutely a a—list director, she started off at a very micro budget movie and worked her way up, as both actor and director
6:40 am
to this level, so this is somebody who is using this 15 years of understanding of filmmaking and storytelling, you see that reflected in the film. what's going on? why are these men looking at me? yeah, they're also staring at me! barbie, with references to patriarchy and gender is viewed by many as an enlightened entertainment. this could mean extremely weird things for our world. but for some environmentalists, it is anything but. to them, it is driving sales of plastic barbie dolls that are far from eco—friendly, but most barbie fans are not concerned by that. they are just impressed by what greta gerwig brought to the screen. barbie is an inclusive film — appealing to people of all ages and backgrounds. reviewing barbie for talking movies is kez brown. audiences, including myself, flocked to cinemas in a sea of pink to see what has been dubbed by many
6:41 am
as the film of the year. as an avid doll lover who played with barbies as a child, this film did not disappoint. the action takes place in two realms, the real world and barbieland, filled with a variety of barbies and kens. but is like in plastic really as fantastic as it seems? we follow barbie, portrayed by margot robbie, as she goes on an adventure to the real world to restore herself after she starts to malfunction. her mission — to find the human playing with her and discover why they are unhappy so that her life can go back to normal. where are we going? in the nearly two—hour film, a lot goes down. there are dance battles, ballads, an interesting takes on the patriarchy and womanhood that have resonated with many.
6:42 am
greta gerwig's barbie pays homage to the iconic doll, but in the same breath it also pokes holes at the beauty standards that barbie sets for women. the cast breathes life into these plastic doll characters by giving them heart and humour. ryan gosling shines as barbie's boyfriend ken, but behind the belly laughs, there is a deeper meaning. barbieland is a matriarchal paradise, but we later find ourselves questioning if this is at the expense of the ken characters. barbie has confounded the naysayers, proving that films with female characters made by female directors can be huge international blockbusters. just before barbie was released, i noticed the arrival of a 25th anniversary director's cut
6:43 am
of a classic documentary called barbie nation, an unauthorised tour. it gives an insight into the origins of barbie and its crazed barbie—mania. it helps you understand perhaps why there is all this madness, such as here in this restaurant with people all dressed in pink. this documentary helps to explain why barbie has become so much a part of so many lives. i became obsessed and this is what you see now. it shows just how much of a pathbreaking figure barbie was when she arrived in 1959. there had never been a doll quite like her before. barbie was a real breakthrough item, a totem. before barbie, girls played with dolls like a mom, and that was the only
6:44 am
role they were given. and barbie was the doll with breasts and legs. she was shocking, and a lot of the parents were opposed to her, even at the time, she gave something truly different for girls and even boys to play with. barbie has long been a lightning rod for criticism, there have been complaints that she set an unrealistic standard for young girls, but mattel, the toy company that manufactures barbie, has tried to move with the times. in 1980 the first black barbie was created and there are now barbies of every nationality and race, body type and disability. but in some ways, and i include myself, who aren't that blonde—haired, blue—eyed ideal, we remain accessories, like all these other barbies remain accessories to the main fit, white barbie. to some adoring fans, barbie has become almost a complete way of life.
6:45 am
we have a barbie fashion show in birmingham, alabama, people make life—sized barbie fashions for themselves and they wear them in fashion shows, and in this fashion show it features the barbiejesus prayer. we thank the father for this wonderful luncheon. and it features this little girl dressed up as a barbie and a cross—dressing couple as well. what is perhaps so noteworthy in relation to barbie is that while she is the product of american capitalism, mechanised mass production, and relentless marketing, she is often able to give those who play with her memorable, personal experiences. she is an object that people can hang their dreams on, their projections on,
6:46 am
theirfears on. people can use this most mass produced of things to create a life which is unique. director christopher nolan pulled off an impressive feat this blockbuster season with 0ppenheimer, with cillian murphy in the title role. who would have thought that a period film focusing on the man who led the team that created the atomic bomb, that was three hours long, would become such a hit? well, alan maloney sat down with christopher nolan. germany needs to know what's next. what's next? in a landscape of sequels and superheroes, a film about the creation of the atomic bomb may not have been the obvious subject for your average summer blockbuster, but then again, christopher nolan is not your average filmmaker. an idea can transform the world and rewrite all the rules.
6:47 am
the british director is known for features like inception and the dark knight trilogy. when gotham is in ashes, - you have my permission to die. films that convey an intelligence lacking from many studio films, he is one of the directors to mark a movie with his name, and there was a huge supporting cast including matt damon and emily blunt. the story itself is fascinating, oppenheimer's life is fascinating. but he'd manages to make a genre—bending by when he moves in time — and what he reveals as he goes. they have a 12 month head start. 18. how could you possibly know that? he is able to capture the vastness of ideas and profoundly loves - |the audience, give so much creditj to the audience to keep up and be able to metabolise these big ideas. it's happening, isn't it? i don't know if we can ever be

trusted with such a weapon, but we have no choice. however, much of the film rest on the shoulders of the irish actor cillian murphy. it's a performance that is already attracting 05car buzz. what i was looking for him to perform, with a lot of pressure, really. — is this is a script written in the first person. so i need cillian to use his powers of empathy to open his thoughts, open his soul to the audience. and he can do that better than any actor can. it's a really remarkable thing. we imagine a future, - and our imaginings horrify us. the film not only creations that covers the creation of the atomic bomb but also 0ppenheimer�*s life following the war, a period where he grappled with the fallout of atomic weapons as well as his past communist associations.
6:49 am
it's a timely story in terms of politicisation of science, new technology and ai. did you find that as well? you don't know the circumstances in which the film will be released. but now that people are seeing the film and having more and more conversations with researchers in the field of ai, for example, i don't think i would rewrite the story, although it does point to important questions and is a true cautionary tale. i don't know how much it gives the way of answers, it just tries to present the questions in the most suspenseful and dramatic way possible. with a dense subject matter, three—hour running time and opening on the same day as barbie, it was feared that it might get lost at the box office. but the movie seems to have benefited from the barbenheimer hype that accompanied the simultaneous release of the two films
6:50 am
with a worldwide box office of over $500 million, critical acclaim and oscar talk, christopher nolan has once again proved himself to be a filmmaker that can deliver big ideas in big films to big audiences. cheering. 0ppenheimer and barbie have been huge hits in north america and europe. in fact, one hollywood studio executive boasted — perhaps a little arrogantly — that with barbie, the film has been working well everywhere. well, not quite because in some parts of the world, both barbie and 0ppenheimer have met with quite a lot of resistance, as noah gittell has been finding out. barbie has garnered significant controversy in the middle east, where its feminist and lgbt themes have made it a target of government censors. the film has been pulled from cinemas in algeria and banned outright in kuwait after playing there for a month. in lebanon, the minister of culture recommended a ban of barbie, claiming it promotes homosexuality and sexual transformation — a reference to a barbie character in the film played by trans actor hari nef. at the end of the day, we're all barbie.
6:51 am
some endorse the minister's recommendation. they feel that barbie could have a negative influence on their traditional culture. translation: men or boys might make feminine gestures. - they might want to put on nail polish, wear earrings or do other gestures inspired by the movie. women, too, seeing barbie and her personality can become very controlling. no, this is not how it is supposed to be. in response to the controversy, the lebanese film 0versight committee met and determined that the film did not warrant an official ban, but barbie still has no release date in lebanon, and many wonder if it will ever screen there. some in the film—making community in lebanon worry that this is a step towards greater censorship. translation: many things were always being banned i in lebanon for certain reasons, but it's been two years that there is like a campaign against culture by blindly banning everything.
6:52 am
as a country that has always been the face of culture in the arab world, we may have become among the last due to how backwards we're going. 0ppenheimer, the other half of the barbenheimer phenomenon, has also faced controversy farfrom hollywood. 0ppenheimer grew up in this apartment building on new york's upper west side. surely he would have been amazed to find himself the subject of both a hollywood blockbuster and its attendant global criticism, especially from india. in the film, 0ppenheimer is seen reciting that sacred text from the bhagavad gita while having sex with a young woman which, to at least one indian official, is a profound insult to hindus. it is an assault on our civilisation values. it is an assault on the hindu community. and therefore, we have written a very strong letter to the director, christopher nolan, that he should withdraw this scene from the film. 0ppenheimer has also faced controversy injapan, where the film has not yet been released.
6:53 am
the film chronicles the creation of the bomb that killed hundreds of thousands of japanese civilians in hiroshima and nagasaki. file: beneath that sinister- ball of smoke, the world's most destructive force has been unleashed. there is speculation that the film may never be shown injapan because of ongoing sensitivities over the world war ii nuclear attacks. but at the hiroshima atomic dome and peace park, one japanese student who has been living in london is in favour of the film being shown injapan. i think people are so interested in the film, may be interested in the american perspective of all of this. i think maybe it might be even better to show it here and kind of educate japanese people even more about it. screaming. these controversies may follow 0ppenheimer and barbie for some time, but they also stand as a testament to the power of these films and the power of cinema to create a global phenomenon. it was, in a way, strangely
6:54 am
amusing to find one of hollywood's biggest action stars, tom cruise, partly sidelined during this blockbuster season by the charms of a movie inspired by a long—legged, iconic plastic doll. yes, cruise's mission: impossible 7 was not at all bad but the blockbuster season glory really did go to barbie, as emma jones now tells us. cheering. already hollywood's golden boy for what top gun: maverick did for post—covid cinema attendance last summer, the question was would tom cruise's midas touch work again for mission: impossible — dead reckoning? there was a big promotional tour supporting the release, including a world premiere in rome, where part of the film was set. it's all about how do i engage the audience? cruise was as willing as ever to meet fans and to be chief salesman for his movie. it's bigger than all the films. it has vivid characterisations.
6:55 am
it has glorious, luxurious locations and practical action, and the stuff that we've accomplished has never been seen before on screen. three, two, one, action! we even built our own train to destroy it. this film, the first of a two—parter, does what you'd expect a mission: impossible film to do. it's set around the world in glamorous locations and has an intriguing and timely plot around artificial intelligence, which might even be able to outsmart ethan hunt. it's only the beginning. but it cost $300 million to make, and so the pressure was on to top the last mission: impossible film, 2018's fallout, which made more than $800 million for cinemas. at the time of release, the cast were hoping for even more with dead reckoning. is that what you're hoping forfor mission: impossible? that it'll be a huge blockbuster summer?
6:56 am
of course. i'd love crack a bill, wouldn't you? i mean, i'd love to get a bit of that. what was it, $800,000? yeah — i've never been in a billion—dollarfilm. but then, with tom and with top gun, amazingly, of course you want everyone to see this. i feel like this film is everything a cinematic blockbuster should be. and it should be seen, and there's so many films. i mean, we speak about mission, but it also becomes a ripple effect, doesn't it, where we show that we can do it, other films will do it. what is made a billion—dollar movie almost mission: impossible, despite cruise's ability to pull off breathtaking stunts, was the release of barbie and 0ppenheimerjust after dead reckoning. after a strong start, the film's hype was quickly stolen and its worldwide box office of $500 million so far is almost a direct result of audiences seeing so—called barbenheimer instead — including tom cruise, who posted on social media with his ticket. ethan? this mission of yours...
6:57 am
..is going to cost you. this mission has certainly been uncertain. the actors' strike has now delayed filming on dead reckoning part two, and part 0ne's steady climb at the box office was derailed by barbie. yet, despite the film's difficulties, most unpredictably of all, few would argue that 60—year—old tom cruise is still the action star of the summer. well, to bring our special talking movies blockbuster review to a close, i've entered barbie world, here at the malibu barbie cafe. we hope you've enjoyed the programme. please remember, you can always reach us online at bbc.com/talkingmovies, and you can find us on facebook. so from me, tom brook, and the rest of the talking movies team, it's goodbye as we leave you with one of the official music videos of barbie.

spanish football in crisis as pressure grows for the head of the football federation to step down over this kiss following the women's world cup final. spain's opponents in that match were england. the lionesses have pledged their support for their spanish counterparts, saying the incident was "unacceptable". disruption on the railways as train strikes hit major events including the reading and leeds festivals. after years of campaigning, the first medals are being produced to honour those who took part in britain's nuclear test programme. # tainted love, whoa—oh—oh... and celebrating 50 years of the wigan casino — dj stuart marconie will tell us why northern soul lives on. there will be a bit of sunshine around — there will be a bit of sunshine around over the weekend but also some _ around over the weekend but also some showers, and some of the showers — some showers, and some of the showers today could be heavy, frequent — showers today could be heavy, frequent with some thunderstorms as well. frequent with some thunderstorms as welt more _ frequent with some thunderstorms as well. more details here on bbc

breakfast. it's saturday 26 august. our main story: pressure is growing for the president of the spanish football federation, luis rubiales, to resign after he kissed spanish player yenni hermoso on the lips following the team's women's world cup final win over england. the lionesses have called the incident "unacceptable" and backed spanish footballers who are refusing to play for the national team until rubiales stands down. hermoso says she did not consent to the kiss. 0ur reporter zoe conway has more. a moment of victory, notjust for the women of this team but for women everywhere. that was the hope. but now the spanish players are refusing to play again for their country until the football official luis rubiales is gone. his forceful kiss ofjenni hermoso and the moment he grabbed his crotch while in the presence of spanish royalty, has caused outrage.
7:02 am
and notjust in spain. the lionesses might have been the spanish team's fiercest rivals on the pitch, but off it, they are now its greatest allies. in a statement, the england team said: but luis rubiales isn't going anywhere. five times he told an emergency meeting of the spanish football federation that he wouldn't step down. translation: do you think i have to resign? _ well i'm going to tell you something, i will not resign. i will not resign, i will not resign.
7:03 am
with his daughters in the audience, he claimed thatjenni hermoso had consented to the kiss. translation: she lifted me up, - she was the one who brought me close to her body. we hugged, and i told her she had been fantastic and we wouldn't have won the world cup without her, and i asked herfor a peck and she said ok. this is the moment hermoso was asked about the kiss in the dressing room after the match. she said she did not like it, and she later released this statement: women and men in madrid showing the red card to the football federation. they are not the only ones speaking out — the spanish government wants rubiales suspended. the spanish striker borja iglesias
7:04 am
has quit the national men's team in disgust at rubiales' behaviour. but some say not enough men in the game are standing up for the women. it is a bit of a disappointment because we know that in this work to truly open up football for everybody, men are so important. we heard mr infantino, the fifa president say last week he is going to open up the doors. to be honest a lot of women rolled their eyes because we have been hammering on those doors for decades. there is no sign of this dispute being resolved. spain's football federation is standing by its president, but some are determined to change a sport they see as far too macho. zoe conway, bbc news. let's get more on this story now with hugh. i think what is coming out of this is we are learning a lot more about rubiales and previous actions, previous behaviour that has now been
7:05 am

7:06 am
the world cup final the rfef very pointedly tweeted "vilda" quote, as if to once again side against those new to kneeing —— mutinying players. he talked about "losers and idiots" against him. they are the only ones we can use on breakfast television. that is the attitude to tough things out when facing criticism. now he finds himself in a slightly different situation because what happened withjenni hermoso took based on a global stage with a lot of people watching, and it has elicited this extraordinary response from the players, 80 of them at last count saying we don't want to play until you step down. he can't be sacked, he is the boss. so he has said yesterday "i won't resign",
7:07 am
five times in that speech, an extraordinary speech at an emergency contract —— emergency conference. it is the events that have stolen the spotlight because of the success of the women's team, success that was unprecedented and has been diminished by his actions. iestate unprecedented and has been diminished by his actions. we will kee- diminished by his actions. we will keep talking _ diminished by his actions. we will keep talking about _ diminished by his actions. we will keep talking about it, _ diminished by his actions. we will keep talking about it, thank - diminished by his actions. we will keep talking about it, thank you l keep talking about it, thank you hugh. it is 7:07am. there will be problems for those travelling around england and the rest of the uk today. charlie has more. there will be disruption to rail services today as around 20,000 members of the rmt union take part in their latest strike over pay and conditions. there will be a reduced timetable for much of england, with some journeys into scotland and wales also affected. let's have a look at what is happening at london euston. 0ur reporter ellie price joins us. iam i am looking at the board behind you
7:08 am
trying to get a sense of what is moving in what is not? it is pretty tuiet moving in what is not? it is pretty quiet here — moving in what is not? it is pretty quiet here actually. _ moving in what is not? it is pretty quiet here actually. ordinarily - quiet here actually. 0rdinarily there would be more services this morning, i think the first one will be leaving, it has just disappeared from the board. it will be leaving in the next few minutes or it should have done. what the travellers i have done. what the travellers i have seen who are looking a little bit weary inside have been confronted with a board is like that and the "hand of doom" saying weight. i am told the services that are running today will be up there, the ones cancelled won't even appear. but of course they may also be cancelled. it is a similar picture across the country, 14 train companies involved in this strike and services will be starting later than normal and finishing earlier than normal and finishing earlier than normal, and that all amounts to a train service that is around half the normal train timetable today. so yes, i think plenty of people having to wait to find out what is going on. the timing of all this is pretty grim, it is a bank holiday weekend, there are big events here in the
7:09 am
capital, there is an internationally big game, the notting hill carnival and is festivals around the country that will be affected. the advice is, i will say a lot today i am sure, check before you travel. thank you very much, we will be speaking to the rmt�*s nick linton in about an hour. —— mick lynch. the government has launched a consultation on steps unions should take to ensure a minimum service levels are provided during industrial action. it comes after a new law was passed to ensure staff have to maintain a level of service during walkouts in sectors hit by strikes over the past year. russia says ten bodies and flight recorders have been recovered from the scene of a jet crash presumed to have killed wagner chief yevgeny prigozhin. the russian investigative committee say it's looking into what caused the crash. the kremlin has denied ordering the assassination of president putin's former close aide. authorities in hawaii have released the names of nearly 340 people who are still missing after the deadliest wildfire on us

7:13 am
tomorrow, clad in persistent rain into the far west of northern ireland but it is central and eastern parts of the uk that see the heaviest of the showers, still a chance of some thunderstorms but not quite as extensive lightning as we are set to see today. temperature is about 15—22, and some brightness between the showers, dried ava wales and scotland compared to today stop then we have higher pressure building its way in time for monday. for many of us monday is a bank holiday, it is looking like the dryer of the next few days, some sunshine, they will be cloud drifting eastwards. charlie and naga. veterans of britain's nuclear testing programme will receive a medal to honour their service, 70 years after the first test was carried out. 40,000 british personnel took part. around 2,000 are believed to still be alive. liz cooper went to see the first medals roll off the production line. 70 years on from britain's first

interestingly, by working class people in the industrial north and midlands here, because it speaks to working people, ithink. it's about the drama and tribulations of everyday life. it's about romance, it's about hard work, it's about pressure, and it's about the ecstasy of going out of the weekend and enjoy yourself. it's very much working people's music, i think. ihthd working people's music, i think. and all these working people's music, ithink. and all these things going on in culture at the same time, what was the overriding music culture of the time? this was kind of almost going below the radar, a little bit. yes. below the radar, a little bit. yes, in a brief moment _ below the radar, a little bit. yes, in a brief moment when - below the radar, a little bit. yes, in a brief moment when it - below the radar, a little bit. lei: in a brief moment when it went over ground, improbably1974, when in a brief moment when it went over ground, improbably 1974, when there ground, improbably1974, when there were a few northern soul records in the charts, that is regarded by the devotees of the scene is not corbett, the qjl bit was wigan casino at the all—nighter, which is celebrating its 50th anniversary this year, the blackpool maker, it was at a time when things like glam rock were going on and things like that, but this was a very different subculture happening underground amongst these passionate acolytes of

to you both- _ in a speech yesterday luis rubiales said he wouldn't resign five times, despite now 81 spanish players refusing to represent the country's women's team after he kissed jenni hermoso on the lips after the world cup final. she says she felt the victim of assault, and denied rubiales' claim it was consensual. both fifa and the spanish government have launched proceedings against the federation's president, with england's lionesses adding their voice to the criticism of him. they were spain's opponents in the world cup final and have released a statement on social media in support of the spanish players, calling what happened "unacceptable". they say they stand withjenni hermoso, and the behaviour of those who "think they are invincible" must not be tolerated. "abuse is abuse", they say, and they "have all seen the truth". sexism is very prevalent, unfortunately. it's something that is very normalised here, which is why you have someone like luis rubiales basically saying he doesn't understand what he did wrong, and he feels as though he clearly didn't do anything wrong. hopefully if any kind of good can
7:35 am
come from this whole situation, it's that we do have a reflection as a society as a whole and do try to find a better way forwards as equals. chelsea earned their first premier league win of the season last night, beating luton town 3—0. nicolas jackson got his first for the club, while the other two came from raheem sterling. his first was an impressive solo effort, and the england forward's performance caught the eye of many, including chelsea boss mauricio pochettino. he is really important for us, because he's a player that has the experience and the quality, scoring goals and assists is the best thing he can do to help the team to win games. there is ways to lose games, and when _ there is ways to lose games, and when the — there is ways to lose games, and when the fans are clapping us off like that— when the fans are clapping us off like that i— when the fans are clapping us off like that i am extremely proud of the whole — like that i am extremely proud of the whole football club. i am disappointed to lose the game, i have _ disappointed to lose the game, i have said — disappointed to lose the game, i have said this last week but we have

7:37 am
off the world record. neita clocked a personal best in fifth, and while she was two places below, asher smith still felt positive after the race. sometimes when life hands you lemons you've got to make lemonade. i'm looking forward to paris next year, i'm really motivated because i know when i am at my best, i am among the medals and up there, that is where i'm at. just done the best with the cards i've been dealt this week. there'll also be two british athletes in the women's 800 metres final. gemma reekie won her semifinal, and she'll be joined by medal hope keeley hodgkinson, who also came first in her semi despite a late surge by the usa's nia akins. hodgkinson realised just in time — the final is one of the last events of the championships tomorrow night. tonight there's a chance for a medal in the men's and women's 4x100 metres relays. both teams sealed their spots in their respective finals last night. the men's team finished in the top three of their heats —
7:38 am
the women's team went one better coming second, with the team of asha phillip, imani lansiquot, bianca williams and annie tagoe finishing behind the jamaican four, and could call on both asher smith and neita for that final tonight too. he might be the big underdog hoping to pull off one of the biggest shocks in british boxing history, but heavyweight daniel dubois says he is ready to "prove to the world" he's the best as he prepares to fight the champion 0leksandr usyk tonight. the wbo, wba and ibf titles are on the line in poland. at yesterday's weigh—in dubois was at his lightest for six years but still almost a stone heavier than usyk. it's not just weight that dubois has on his side — he has an age, height and reach advantage too. but in usyk he's up against a tactical mastermind and the overwhelming favourite. staying with boxing — anthonyjoshua's last opponent robert helenius has returned an "adverse analytical finding" as part of a random anti—doping program. a statement from matchroom boxing said helenius was tested twice before the fight, with the results being made known last night. joshua knocked helenius

changes and advances in so many other cancers. brain tumours still lag way behind. the survival rate is one of the lowest among all of the cancers. i want that to change, even if it turns out to be too late for me. please help by sharing this video, please be the difference. plot twist: were laura nuttall�*s first words on hearing she had brain cancer. who would have expected it? so laura became a champion for research while living her own life to the full. fies research while living her own life to the full-— research while living her own life to the full. ~ , ., ., to the full. as soon as we found out we were like — to the full. as soon as we found out we were like right, _ to the full. as soon as we found out we were like right, we _ to the full. as soon as we found out we were like right, we need - to the full. as soon as we found out we were like right, we need a - to the full. as soon as we found out | we were like right, we need a bucket list. what will be on that? it is a crazy thing to think about these things, like what you want to do before you die, like when you are 19 you don't think about that sort of stuff. ., .

many times they go back and forth to the gp and how underfunded this cancer was she basically said no, i'm happy to be used and abused, just share the story, get out there as far as possible, make people aware of how bad the situation is. so we consciously made an effort to make as much noise as we could about it. tom parker, amount of the charttopping boy brand the wanted was already in the limelight when she was diagnosed —— when he was diagnosed with the same type of aggressive tumour is laura. # lived today... aggressive tumour is laura. # lived today. . ._ aggressive tumour is laura. # lived today... aggressive tumour is laura. # lived toda ., , # lived today... their mothers live less than 30 _ # lived today... their mothers live less than 30 miles _ # lived today... their mothers live less than 30 miles from _ # lived today... their mothers live less than 30 miles from each - # lived today... their mothers live | less than 30 miles from each other. this is the first time they have met. ., , ., , ., this is the first time they have met-_ and i this is the first time they have met. ., , t, and ou. met. lovely to meet you. and you. how are you? _ met. lovely to meet you. and you. how are you? i'm _ met. lovely to meet you. and you. how are you? i'm all— met. lovely to meet you. and you. how are you? i'm all right, - met. lovely to meet you. and you. how are you? i'm all right, thank i how are you? i'm all right, thank ou. i how are you? i'm all right, thank you- i wish _ how are you? i'm all right, thank you- i wish we — how are you? i'm all right, thank you. i wish we didn't _ how are you? i'm all right, thank

7:48 am
role in enabling new treatments for illnesses like dementia and parkinson's disease. it is now working more with tumours. what we do here in the brain bank is really the very ground floor of the type of research that really needs to be done. �* , ., research that really needs to be done. �* ,, �* research that really needs to be done. �* �* , ., done. but you can't build on research _ done. but you can't build on research unless _ done. but you can't build on research unless you - done. but you can't build on research unless you have i done. but you can't build on i research unless you have that done. but you can't build on - research unless you have that ground floor, so having these brains and allowing researchers to access these brains means that things will move forward instead of stagnating. fiend forward instead of stagnating. and laura is playing her part here. laura is playing her part here. laura knew that without research or ever going to see is people like us being in the same position ten or 15 years down the line, so she wanted to donate her brain so it could be used for research, so that's going to be happening at the end of the week. and that's really hard for us, because she is a little girl, but it's what she would have wanted. laura's brain is particularly valuable, because of the effect of the treatment she was able to access, like immunotherapy, which can be analysed. some tumours, like
7:49 am
glioblastoma, grow extensively within the brain, making removal surgery difficult and other interventions very difficult. the tumour can grow back quickly, often with fatal consequences. a surgeon described it as invading through the brain, telling me that any eventual victory over this cancer will come through treatments or drugs, not the blade of his scalpel. and there are reasons for cautious optimism. indie reasons for cautious optimism. we have reasons for cautious optimism. - have heard this week that a new treatment for patients with lower grade brain tumours has suddenly had a very dramatic effect in delaying the progression of those tumours. and for the more malignant high—grade tumours in the brain, surgical techniques, high—grade tumours in the brain, surgicaltechniques, chemotherapy changes, i think there are immunotherapy treatments around the corner. so things have moved on, theyjust haven't moved on as far and as fast as we would like them

rightly being the family's focus, but years of trauma which inevitably have an impact on siblings as well. when a young person dies, it is normally the parents that are the focus, quite rightly. but i think siblings are often... people forget about them, because you kind of assume the sibling will have their own life, well, you know, get married and have kids and be fine, where is the parents will always have that whole. and i think people don't realise that actually it is like losing... i have said this before, but it's like losing your other part, because i don't really know who i am without laura. you know, she's been there at 100% of my life, and to not have that voice and that person that i can speak to anymore, i thought she would be at my wedding, i thought she would be introduced to my children. it's not just losing a sister, is everything you have to go through before that. and seeing her in as many situations

more details here on bbc breakfast. it's saturday 26th august. pressure is growing for the president of the spanish football federation, luis rubiales, to resign after he kissed spanish player, jenni hermoso, on the lips. it followed the team's world cup final win over england. the lionesses have called the incident "unacceptable" and backed spanish footballers who are refusing to play for the national team until rubiales stands down. hermoso says she did not consent to the kiss. our reporter zoe conway has more. a moment of victory, notjust for the women of this team but for women everywhere. that was the hope. but now the spanish players are refusing to play again for their country until the football official, luis rubiales, is gone. his forceful kiss ofjenni hermoso and the moment he grabbed his crotch while in the presence of spanish royalty, has caused outrage.

and notjust in spain. the lionesses may have been the spanish team's fiercest rivals on the pitch, but off it, they are now its greatest allies. in the statement, the england team said: but luis rubiales isn't going anywhere. five times he told an emergency meeting of the spanish football federation that he wouldn't step down. translation: do you think i have to resign? _ well, i'm going to tell you something, i will not resign. i will not resign, i will not resign.

with his daughters in the audience, he claimed thatjenni hermoso had consented to the kiss. translation: she lifted me up, she was the one who brought - me close to her body. we hugged, and i told her she had been fantastic and we wouldn't have won the world cup without her, and i asked herfor a peck and she said ok. this is the moment hermoso was asked about the kiss in the dressing room after the match. she said she did not like it, and she later released this statement. women and men in madrid showing the red card to the football federation. they are not the only ones speaking out — the spanish government wants rubiales suspended. the spanish striker borja iglesias has quit the national men's team
8:04 am
in disgust at rubiales' behaviour. but some say not enough men in the game are standing up for the women. it is a bit of a disappointment because we know that in this work to truly open up football for everybody, men are so important. we heard mr infantino, the fifa president say last week he is going to open up the doors. to be honest a lot of women rolled their eyes because we have been hammering on those doors for decades. there is no sign of this dispute being resolved. spain's football federation is standing by its president, but some are determined to change a sport they see as far too macho. zoe conway, bbc news. let's get more on this story now with our sports reporter hugh ferris. luis rubiales is the president of the spanish version of our fa. you said luis rubiales is the president of the spanish version of our fa. you said to luis rubiales is the president of the spanish version of our fa. you said to me luis rubiales is the president of the spanish version of our fa. you said to me earlier luis rubiales is the president of the spanish version of our fa. you said to me earlier he luis rubiales is the president of the spanish version of our fa. you said to me earlier he can't luis rubiales is the president of the spanish version of our fa. you said to me earlier he can't be

8:06 am
not resign. fifa could well step in, they have launched disciplinary proceedings but what they don't want to see is the government in spain unilaterally saying, you are out of a job, unilaterally saying, you are out of ajob, because unilaterally saying, you are out of a job, because they don't like governmental interference into football federations across the world, it's very important role that fifa had. so the government have set over the course of the last 24 hours they will launch their own legal proceedings which might allow them to punish him via a sport tribunal that might well decide in a court he's been contravention of regulations that basically govern the behaviour of those people who work in sport in the country. so it is not simple. him saying he will not resign as part of an attack against criticism, yes, but it's an element of security, knowing he has a lot of power in the situation. indie a lot of power in the situation. we will see how this plays out, thank you. it is six minutes past eight. there will be travel problems,
8:07 am
charlie has more. there will be disruption to rail services today as around 20,000 members of the rmt union take part in their latest strike over pay and conditions. there will be a reduced timetable for much of england, with some journeys into scotland and wales also affected. our transport correspondent, katy austin, reports. summer is nearly over, train strikes are not. disruption will vary around the country today but many operators have reduced timetables in place, with services starting late and finishing early. it's affecting the travel plans of thousands of people heading to events including football matches, the notting hill carnival and the reading and leeds festivals. it's not great for a bank holiday weekend and the carnival. i am off to my mum's in leamington spa and had to change it to come back on sunday. my mum's aged 90, so yeah, a bit ofa pain. i think they have gone on too long. i i think it is time they started to| sit around a table and sort it out. planned upgrade works over the next few days are another reason to check before you travel. and there is more strike action

8:09 am
occasions in the balance that we have run. and we expect that to be the case in the next ballot. we are fully prepared to see this through until we get an agreement, and our members are fully behind the campaign. the industry and the government continue to say rail workers should get a vote on proposals which were rejected back in the spring that they argue are reasonable. unions say plans to close hundreds of ticket offices have added to members' anger. more train driver strikes are also expected in the coming months. pubs and entertainment venues have warned their businesses are suffering from the action, as another autumn of disruption comes into view. katy austin, bbc news. so what does that look like at euston? this is affecting 14 train companies in scotland and wales are not affected but of course they could be an ongoing effect for those

the kremlin has denied ordering the assassination of president putin's former close aide. authorities in hawaii have released the names of nearly 340 people who are still missing after the deadliest wildfire on us soil for more than a century. it's the first such list to be released since the fire swept through the town of lahaina more than two weeks ago. the government wants any survivors to come forward so the number of people can be accurately accounted for. four young people have died in a crash in county tipperary. the male driver and three female teenage passengers were killed in the incident. it's thought they had been on their way to celebrate after receiving the results of their exams. a nottinghamshire police officer remains in a serious condition after being hit by a train as he attempted to help a distressed man on the tracks. officers were called to an area near newark on thursday night. the man on the railway line also suffered injuries — but they are not believed to be life threatening. our midlands correspondent,
8:12 am
phil mackie reports. it's a really busy stretch of the east coast main line, which passes through the village of balderston on the outskirts of newark in nottinghamshire. investigators were focusing their attention on the area where the incident happened near a road bridge. nottinghamshire police said they'd responded to a call to help what they described as a distressed man on the railway lines, when one of its officers was hit by a train and suffered life—changing injuries. the man he saved suffered electrocution injuries, and both are being treated in hospital. there was a huge response. i noticed ten police cars and five ambulances, and they all came rushing up here from all directions. robertjenrick, the local mp and home office minister, said in a statement...
8:13 am
although the line is fenced off, it wouldn't, for instance, be hard to jump over the gate that's guarded those offices and gain access to the line. but a key question that many people want answered is, if there was a police incident already under way, why wasn't the train stopped? a5 investigations continue, the chief constable of nottinghamshire police said the officer was very poorly in hospital, and was a true hero. phil mackie, bbc news, balderton in nottinghamshire. 13 minutes past eight is the time. it's been 90 years since the first reported sighting — but this weekend hundreds of people will descend on the scottish highlands hoping to catch a glimpse of the loch ness monster. it's the biggest search for more than half a century — with enthusiasts keeping a close eye on the loch from land, and others monitoring it online. a lot of equipment will be used.

8:15 am
going to grow in depth meaning the showers they produce will be thundery, heavy, some turn to dampers and hail. so sunshine and showers through the weekend, i think there will be most frequent today compared to tomorrow. at low pressure still with us. it's just sitting out towards the east. this frontal system here. winds rotating around that, quite a breezy picture for northern and western scotland, northern ireland and the english channel as well. going through the day you can see these colours popping up and some green colours mixed in, some of the heavy showers i think almost anywhere, the most frequent and heaviest likely stop across parts of eastern england later in the afternoon. a little drier further west. later in the afternoon. a little drierfurtherwest. some later in the afternoon. a little drierfurther west. some sunshine drier further west. some sunshine across drierfurther west. some sunshine across northern ireland but cloudier in the west, cloudier and the bulk of scotland as well but some dry weather towards the south. temperatures for most of us mid to high teens but we could see 22 in those sunny spells in the south—east. for festivalgoers those sunny spells in the south—east. forfestivalgoers in and leeds, we are expecting to see some
8:16 am
passing showers so certainly, sunglasses, brollies and also your wellies if you're at those festivals. through the evening the showers largely fate awaits us in sunshine around, more overnight in the west and this shall remain will move in across wales into the south—west of england. but under the clear skies temperatures down into single figures for some of us, fresher night, mist and fog patches heading on into sunday morning. they should clear relatively quickly. another day of sunshine and showers. the morning showers will be across parts of wales, south—west england in the afternoon, eastern scotland and england will be in the book of the showers. clouding over northern ireland, weak front producing a little rain but it should ease later in the day. temperatures again a little below par for the time of year, mid to high teens, perhaps up to 22 in the south—east. sunday, of course, the start of notting hill carnival and you may well see a spot or two of rain through the day on sunday but it's more likely to dry out into the evening hours and on into monday as well. so monday, bank holiday for many of us and it will
8:17 am
be dominated by an area of high pressure trying to move in from the atlantic, so still a bit of cloud, perhaps the odd spot of rain drifting eastwards in the breeze but predominantly a dry day, so some sunshine around on monday. less breezy than the next couple of days as well so if you're lucky enough to be off on monday, not a bad day. tap temperatures only around 16 to 20 but should feel pleasant enough in the dry and brighter weather, especially in the south and east. a dry day for many of us on monday but that very unsettled, showery and not particularly warm over the next week or so. thank you. as we've been hearing this morning, train travel will see major disruption this weekend as tens of thousands of rail workers in the rmt union go on strike as part of a long—running dispute over pay and conditions. let's speak to the general secretary of the rmt, mick lynch. good morning, thank you for your time with us here on breakfast. where are you at as we have more

8:26 am
which has linked up with a local charity. that'll be fun, you'll grow into it. critical care sister faye is here with daughter lily. looking for some school uniform to save me a little bit of money on back to school. big cost bomb. i did it last year when they did it here, and it's over £150. yeah, important? very, very important. especially since my eldest is now going up to secondary school and her — just to set her up for her first set of uniform was 500. which... is shocking. ..at the moment, is difficult, as well. it is very difficult. so the fact that my employer can do this for us is wonderful. care coordinator danny — another customer this morning. it can be very costly. i mean, they've changed the way it works now, so you don't all have to be logo'd up, but it used to be very, very expensive for us. like, it would cost near on £200 for a uniform for a year, which is not really a nice amount of money to be spending when you don't have to. this so—called marketplace was the idea of staff member charlene. i said, "can we not do something on site where staff can get - the items during their lunch break?
8:27 am
if we're here early, - come before their shift?" so i decided to do the marketplace and people could come. _ today is uniform day, but we do other daysl where it's christmas specials, so we do regifting gifts. - they work with a local charity to collect the clothes, and it's seen a growing demand as costs rise. the families that we used to look after are low—income families that tend not to be working, but that's changed in the last year. because of the cost—of—living crisis, now it's a lot of families who are coming to us are two—parent—working households and allowing staff, nurses, doctors — all different hospital pay grades to be able to come and get support in a non—judgemental way, be able to just pick stuff up and just leave, it's really important to us. cost—of—living pressures are very much still with us. it's maybe not front—page news every day, but it's still very much being felt by our staff. we've got full—time employed staff here, clinical and non—clinical staff, who are really struggling with costs just now. and what we're trying to do through initiatives with this
8:28 am
is help them get some money back in their pockets by providing things that otherwise theyjust can't afford. more than 50 staff came through here this morning, dozens more expected throughout the day. karl mercer reporting. we're joined now by geoff barton, general secretary for the association of school and college leaders. good morning. so that's the scheme that's working, its manifesting, helping relatively small number of people? helping relatively small number of theole? . , helping relatively small number of .eo .le? , , ., , ~' helping relatively small number of theole? , , ,, ., ., people? yes, it sounds like a great idea. it people? yes, it sounds like a great idea- it happens — people? yes, it sounds like a great idea. it happens i _ people? yes, it sounds like a great idea. it happens i bumped - people? yes, it sounds like a great idea. it happens i bumped into - idea. it happens i bumped into former colleague of mine, a former head teacher here who is now a governor at a primary school and she was saying to me that they have opened up the school during the holidays for parents to be able to go and get, essentially, second—hand uniform, 50p is the maximum they are going to pay. the schools will be doing their bit. and of course what they are trying to do is balance the sense that all been imported in the uk, not in other places necessarily, that part of the way you show a
8:29 am
young person is a young person, irrespective of background, is by expecting them to wear the same kind of uniform, and that's why the uniform is there. on the other hand you're wanting to recognise the cost of living, means that having logos on every item pushes up the price, that's what i think your programme of the past few weeks, your viewers about my concerns, have brought to the fore. . ., , , ,, about my concerns, have brought to the fore. , ., _ , , the fore. obviously you represent school and _ the fore. obviously you represent school and college _ the fore. obviously you represent school and college leaders, - the fore. obviously you represent school and college leaders, so i the fore. obviously you represent school and college leaders, so ifl school and college leaders, so if it's the beginning of time and if a child turns up at school, i don't know, wearing last year's uniform or a non—dispatch uniform if that's what required, —— non—badge uniform, is the attitude changing around that? is that 0k? can a head teacher say, well, let's not worry about that? what are the parameters around that? what are the parameters around that? i that? what are the parameters around that? ., . , ., . that? i mean, winston churchill said head teachers _ that? i mean, winston churchill said head teachers have _ that? i mean, winston churchill said head teachers have got _ that? i mean, winston churchill said head teachers have got more - that? i mean, winston churchill said head teachers have got more power| head teachers have got more power than the british prime minister. head teachers can do what they want on something like this, this is why the government feels so squeamish around this in england. different in wales, i would just come back to that in a second. but essentially,
8:30 am
even back in the day when i was a teacher, you would have uniform which was available to young people, sometimes it was uniform which had been donated when youngsters had left year 11, left the school, etc. sometimes, frankly, we had a fund whereby the governors were putting a pot of money aside and on the quiet we were making sure a youngster, whether parents were saying we can't afford this, we would do that. i think there's a generosity of spirit across our schools where that kind of thing will be going on, it's probably an understated part of what's happening do you want to clarify what you said about wales? the education secretary in a sense there did a consultation and simply said to the public, what do you think of branded logo items? 57% of the consultation said we think there are far too many of them, we don't think they are that important, reflecting a social change. as a result of which, wales is saying only one item of school uniform can
8:31 am
have a badge. if i was ahead now i would be sane to governors, you know, the days of when we had branding on the shirt and branding on thejumper and branding on branding on the shirt and branding on the jumper and branding on the rugby items, i'm not sure we need that because i think that social attitudes have moved away from that. let's have something on a visible plight, that is what they are doing in wales. the government in england would find it very difficult to do that because they hate anything that suggests they in westminster might be talking about something more like uniform. i think there is something in what your viewers are saying, that social attitudes are shifting around schools and maybe the consultation the governors are doing with the parents might reflect that more. . ., , ., ., with the parents might reflect that more. ., , ., ., more. another consultation you will be well aware _ more. another consultation you will be well aware of, _ more. another consultation you will be well aware of, this _ more. another consultation you will be well aware of, this is _ more. another consultation you will be well aware of, this is to - more. another consultation you will be well aware of, this is to do - more. another consultation you will be well aware of, this is to do with l be well aware of, this is to do with teachers unions, will affect them potentially. this six week consultation. the way the government is presenting this is that reasonable steps a union should take to ensure minimum service levels
8:32 am
provided during strike action. this could well be something that would directly affect schools. teachers on strike but they are required, some, to be there, and that would become just a nation. what would you make of that? . just a nation. what would you make of that? , ., ., of that? yes, i find it a sad and dispiriting _ of that? yes, i find it a sad and dispiriting document _ of that? yes, i find it a sad and dispiriting document written i of that? yes, i find it a sad and dispiriting document written byj dispiriting document written by people who it seems to me have never run anything. a lot of your viewers and employers will be alarmed because it is good to make industry relations in our school —— it is going to make relations worse. i think your viewers would say, if the government what the unions to have minimum service level agreements could we have them with you? could you run the services so we don't have pollution on the beaches, transport system that works for the north of england? a qualified teacher in every classroom, please? a qualification system that doesn't leave a third of young people feeling marginalised? could you, instead of putting so much time and energy into those sad little videos at the end of it into heading off

strike action because they're probably the best people to tell you how you retain more of them. geoff barton, how you retain more of them. geoff barton. you — how you retain more of them. geoff barton. you ask— how you retain more of them. geoff barton. you ask a — how you retain more of them. geoff barton, you ask a lot _ how you retain more of them. geoff barton, you ask a lot of _ how you retain more of them. geoff barton, you ask a lot of questions. equally well, parents might ask the questions, and students themselves, we are going to school, why can't we have a teacher in our school? absolutely. we lost 44,000 teachers... absolutely. we lost 44,000 teachers- - -_ absolutely. we lost 44,000 teachers... i'm asking about during strike action. _ teachers... i'm asking about during strike action, they _ teachers... i'm asking about during strike action, they might _ teachers... i'm asking about during strike action, they might say, - teachers... i'm asking about during strike action, they might say, why. strike action, they might say, why do we have to pay the penalty of not having someone teaching our child's class? why can't there be... doesn't that seem also fairly reasonable? children are going to school even during strike times, shouldn't there be a teacher available?— be a teacher available? well, the reali of be a teacher available? well, the reality of our— be a teacher available? well, the reality of our schools _ be a teacher available? well, the reality of our schools and - be a teacher available? well, the | reality of our schools and colleges as in that there have been very few strikes. there were some last year. they will not be strikes in the autumn term. the reason for that is not to do with the education secretary but leadership we saw from the independent school teachers review body, where he, the chair of
8:34 am
that committee, defied the government and said we have to pay teachers more, and number 10 so the strength of feeling and the talk of strike action and it was the talk of strike action and it was the talk of strike action and it was the talk of strike action which has headed off strike action which has headed off strike action. that i think was a great act of leadership. it goes back to what mick lynch was saying, if you are going to have a democracy then you have to have employees how i able to say in the most severe scenario, i would take away my labour. —— who are able to say. we don't take strike action to be inconvenient, if i was giving advice to the secretary of state, and i am no the last —— i know i am the last person she would want advice from, spend time learning how to negotiate how to talk and listen to the sector because then we really wouldn't have to be talking about strike action. geoff barton, appreciate your time, general secretary of the association of school and college leaders. it is not often we can draw a parallel between what union leaders have just been talking about, about the trains and teachers but lo and
8:35 am
behold we have a situation where footballers come in this case in spain, are talking about withdrawing labour. that is exactly what they have threatened to do and will do until the federation in spain's president steps down because of the wiki has had. if you want to learn about the disconnect between how the federation field, who have doubled down on their support, and seemingly everybody else, that is the market headline which translates to global embarrassment, which is how a lot of the politicians, a lot of those commenting on spain and beyond on the luis rubiales situation. spain's players signed a joint team statement saying they will not play for their country again while the spanish football federation chief luis rubiales remains in post. it has sent spanish football into crisis. the spanish secretary of sport said he "wants this to be spanish football's metoo moment" after the government started legal proceedings against rubiales for kissing world cup star jenni hermoso on the lips.
8:36 am
fifa have also opened disciplinary proceedings against rubiales, who has refused to resign despite overwhelming pressure. sexism is very prevalent, unfortunately. it's something that is very normalised here, which is why you have someone like rubiales basically saying he doesn't understand what he did wrong, and he feels as though he clearly didn't do anything wrong. hopefully if any kind of good can come from this whole situation, it's that we do have a reflection as a society as a whole and do try to find a better way forwards as equals. chelsea earned their first premier league win of the season last night, beating luton town by three goals to nil. nicolas jackson got his first for the club, while the other two came from raheem sterling — his first was an impressive solo effort. and the england forward's performance caught the eye of many — including chelsea boss mauricio pochettino. i think raheem is really important for us, because he's a player that has the experience and the quality, scoring goals and assists and everything he can do to help the team to win games.
8:37 am
the build—up to next month's rugby world cup has not been plain sailing for england. they have lost four of their last five games and the squad has been hampered by injuries and suspensions. today's final warm—up match against fiji at twickenham will be courtney lawes' 100th cap for his country and he believes the side can raise their level for when it matters. we just want to play how we know we can for each other, and we know we'll get there. so, you know, we're not... we're not too worried. we don't listen to a lot of the noise because...you know, when... when... when it matters, i think... i think we'll, you know, we'll start performing how we know we can. scotland and ireland are also in action today. ireland play samoa this evening, whilst scotland take on georgia at murrayfield with half an eye on their first world cup match against south africa in september. despite the fear of getting injured before a major tournament, sam skinner says every game needs to be taken seriously.
8:38 am
i mean, you'vejust got to go flat out. it's a test match game, an opportunity to represent your country and give it everything you've got, and that's all we're thinking about. obviously it's a contact sport and there are risks in this game, but you can't really afford to think like that. you've just got to go flat out, play for your country, and hope that you come out the other side. great britain didn't add to their medal tally at the world athletics championships in budapest yesterday, but the final weekend could bring more success. so let's speak to olympic medallist and former world champion colin jackson. pa rt part of the bbc team out there. thank you so much forjoining us. the individual sprints are done so perhaps an assessment of how they went, particularly, and we will start with zharnel hughes, third in the 104th last night in the 200. is that an achievement from what he would have planned for? that that an achievement from what he would have planned for?— would have planned for? that is a treat would have planned for? that is a great achievement _ would have planned for? that is a great achievement by _ would have planned for? that is a great achievement by zharnel - would have planned for? that is a i great achievement by zharnel setting himself up wonderfully well. for me,
8:39 am
going to the 200 metres, which some people say it his favourite event, would always be tough just because of the abilities of the athletes around him. fourth place was truly remarkable. he can certainly leave these championships as an individual athlete saying he has done a very good job and he has set himself up so well for the limpets next year. perhaps that is the context for daryll neita and dina asher—smith, we are in the final the 200, and the 100. perhaps they might be thinking about paris but will they be ok with making the final but not getting medals in both sprints? d0 making the final but not getting medals in both sprints?- making the final but not getting medals in both sprints? do you know what? the women _ medals in both sprints? do you know what? the women sprints _ medals in both sprints? do you know what? the women sprints are - medals in both sprints? do you know what? the women sprints are so - medals in both sprints? do you know what? the women sprints are so red | what? the women sprints are so red hot at the moment. you have to look around that 10.7 mark in the 100 metres at least and 21 eight, 20 1.7, the 200 metres, to get on the rostrum. that is what makes it difficult for them both —— 201.8, 21.7. they are very competitive, they are in the country together and
8:40 am
they are in the country together and they will push each other and when you are world class, at that level, it will make a big difference. they will look to improve next year at the olympic games, get on the circuit, run more personal bests and you never know what can happen. interesting to hear zharnel hughes and dina asher—smith talk immediately after their races last night in the 200 about how this makes them feel, as you say, about paris. is that the way of overcoming what came at night or have they genuinely been thinking about the olympics as this whole cycle over the year or so?— the year or so? this is a well championships, _ the year or so? this is a well championships, they - the year or so? this is a well championships, they want i the year or so? this is a well championships, they want to the year or so? this is a well i championships, they want to do the year or so? this is a well - championships, they want to do well here, that's for sure but you always have an eye on the olympic games especially when it is just one year out. forzharnel, he is especially when it is just one year out. for zharnel, he is in a good position. dina will be questioning no doubt why she ran so well in london and couldn't repeat that or just raise her leveljust a little bit, as we normally see from her at championships. a5 bit, as we normally see from her at championships. as i say, she will go back and have a completely different story. but it is good to go into winter asking yourself questions, it makes you work harder! the

8:43 am
with one objective — to make life safer at sea. and that's exactly what the headscarf revolutionaries achieved. after the triple trawler tragedy in 1968, they forced the government to change safety laws. these lasses, they went through hell and back. it wasn't just about the fishing and... what they did was community. their story is probably the most inspiring story of the 20th century. what they achieved was phenomenal in theirtime in 1968. the views of campaigners in hull hoping to get a permanent memorial made in the city for the headscarf revolutionaries. i think it's a really good idea. you know, if you've got schools who are on visits, walking around the town or walking around looking at the various statues in hull, it does get kids asking questions. i think it's so important. it's one of the first early acts of feminism. it'll bring people to the city| and it will bring awareness.
8:44 am
i know they've got murals in town, they've got benches, _ they've got blue plaques. this is something that has to happen land it's something that will happen. | plans for a statue in the ladies' honour have now moved a step closer, as people met to discuss where they'd like to see it, and what it could look like. i'd like it either at the marina looking out at the north sea, near the deep or hessle road, where, obviously, they did a lot of their campaigning from. it would be amazing if they could get it in the hull city centre, and then other people and visitors and tourists and people can learn and know about our culture and history. more than £100,000 needs to be raised for the statue, but fundraisers say they won't stop until they've reached that target, and the city has a lasting tribute. they should have a statue in this city. they deserve it. i am very, very determined to do, and very passionate about them — it's something i'm never going to give up. i've always been concerned, but i've never had the guts to do owt about it. but now, i think it's time somebody did.

the power of social media has led to a surge in the number of people in the uk adopting abandoned dogs from abroad. accounts sharing pictures of dogs from all over the world have made it much easier for owners to find, and fall for them. alex humphrey's report contains images you may find distressing from the start. just hang on, little man. if you can just hang on for 24 hours. this was rodney injanuary — weeks old and just hours from death. but this is rodney now, living it up in his new home in the uk. from the first moment we brought him in the house, hejust kind of loved it. you could see by his expressions. i fell in love with him anyway. but, like, you fell in love with rodney straight away from day one. he was like, "i need him, i need that dog. he's going to be my dog. if he survives the night, he's my dog!" rodney was rescued from the streets of koh samui by niall harbison, whose mission is to feed, sterilise and treat street dogs all around the world.
8:46 am
it's estimated there are 200 million of them. i just started small, feeding a few dogs on the street. i didn't have any big plan. and then i fed four and then i fed eight, and then suddenly it's grown. i mean, they're not really great at survival on their own. they can scavenge around for food, but there's too many dangers. so i want to change the street dog problem all over the world. rodney is. . .just the most miraculous dog. just these big eyes, and his skin was — you could hardly touch him. and he wasjust... just the most miserable, i think, was the word i was looking for. while i was getting him better, my inbox was already full of people being like, "i want to give him a home." like from everywhere — all around the world. with close to a million followers on social media, niall�*s mission is becoming easier, as he dog—uments happy stories about the dogs. proper little rump. i think the reason it resonates with people and the people enjoy it is because it's like, i'm not trying to sell you, like, dna dog test, which is what social
8:47 am
media seems to be about. i kind of think of it as a little soap opera. sometimes people are like, "what's.... what's going to be happening today?" rodney now lives with his new canine brother, khabib, in south wales. so here he is — oh, he's heavy! i have followed rodney�*sjourney from the very beginning — aw! — and it's beautiful to see him in the flesh. but i don't know — what is it with our fascination with dogs that we've never met? it's just seeing the journey. dogs are the only beings that love you more than they love themselves. i think here'sjust so much doom and gloom in the world and...| think i think there'sjust so much doom and gloom in the world and...| think it's important to try and be optimistic. and i think these stories help us be a little bit more optimistic. rodney�*s journey to wales is a happy ending for one former street dog, but niall agrees that adopting dogs from abroad is not the solution to the problem — and not always straightforward. sophie from romania was adopted by rory cellan—jones and his wife, but was traumatised by the journey to the uk.

i think my experience shows that you've got to be careful about this. we expected it to be like our previous rescue dog, which was sourced locally, that it might be a bit nervy at first, but things would soon sort themselves out. and it didn't. so you've got to realise you're taking on quite a task if you agree to adopt a dog from abroad. i'm assuming that you and your wife, when you got sophie, you weren't expecting to become dog influencers. is there a pressure that comes with that? there is a pressure. every morning my wife says to me, "have you posted a photo yet?" and if i haven't posted a photo, the internet will tell me, saying, "what's going on?" a5 for rodney? well, his owners are still coming to terms with the pressures of social media fame. rodney, however, just wants to play with his big brother. alex humphreys, bbc news.

8:59 am
good morning, welcome to breakfast with charlie stayt and naga munchetty. our headlines today: spanish football in crisis as pressure grows for the head of the football federation to step down over this kiss following the women's world cup final. and in the latest development the federation in spain now says it is supporting lewis rubiales“ version of events and in fact will take legal action over the player's denial that the incident was consensual. disruption on the railways as train strikes hit major events including the reading and leeds festivals. and after the death of dylan ramsay we'll speak to his mother whose tireless campaigning will see greater water safety training in schools. good morning. there will be a bit of sunshine around through the course of the weekend but also some showers
9:00 am
and today some of the sharers could be heavy, frequent, with some thunderstorms. more details here on bbc breakfast. good morning. it's saturday 26th august. the spanish football federation has announced it will take legal action against player, jenni hermoso, after she said she did not consent to being kissed on the lips by its president following last weekend's final. luis rubiales has refused to resign despite growing pressure. 81 players are refusing to be called up for the national team until he's removed. our reporter zoe conway has more. a moment of victory, notjust for the women of this team but for women everywhere. that was the hope. but now the spanish players are refusing to play again for their country until the football official, luis rubiales, is gone. his forceful kiss ofjenni hermoso and the moment he grabbed his crotch while in the presence of spanish
9:01 am
royalty, has caused outrage. and notjust in spain. the lionesses may have been the spanish team's fiercest rivals on the pitch, but off it, they are now its greatest allies. in a statement, the england team said: but luis rubiales isn't going anywhere. five times he told an emergency meeting of the spanish football federation that he wouldn't step down. translation: do you think i have to resign? _ well, i'm going to tell you something, i will not resign. i will not resign,
9:02 am
i will not resign. with his daughters in the audience, he claimed thatjenni hermoso had consented to the kiss. translation: she lifted me up, she was the one who brought - me close to her body. we hugged, and i told her she had been fantastic and we wouldn't have won the world cup without her, and i asked herfor a peck and she said ok. this is the moment hermoso was asked about the kiss in the dressing room after the match. she said she did not like it, and she later released this statement. women and men in madrid showing the red card to the football federation. they are not the only ones speaking out — the spanish government wants rubiales suspended.
9:03 am
the spanish striker borja iglesias has quit the national men's team in disgust at rubiales“ behaviour. but some say not enough men in the game are standing up for the women. it is a bit of a disappointment because we know that in this work to truly open up football for everybody, men are so important. we heard mr infantino, the fifa president say last week he is going to open up the doors. to be honest a lot of women rolled their eyes because we have been hammering on those doors for decades. there is no sign of this dispute being resolved. spain's football federation is standing by its president, but some are determined to change a sport they see as far too macho. zoe conway, bbc news. let's get more on this story now with our sports reporter hugh ferris. a few things to the kind of look at now. so this legal action is against whom? , , ., . .,
9:04 am
whom? this is an entrenchment of osition, whom? this is an entrenchment of position. if— whom? this is an entrenchment of position. if you _ whom? this is an entrenchment of position, if you like, _ whom? this is an entrenchment of position, if you like, over- whom? this is an entrenchment of position, if you like, over the - position, if you like, over the course of the last few hours because as part of a statement released by the federation, of which luis rubiales is the president, in the early hours of the morning, they say they will take legal action because of the comments made as part of a statement by the players“ union, which included those comments from jenni hermoso saying it was not consensual, the kiss was not consensual, the kiss was not consensual and that she disputed the version of events that had been laid out in front of her. and others over the course of the last few days by luis rubiales. so they have said in response, not only that they will take legal action because of those comments but they have refuted them, they say, using evidence of four photos from the moment that preceded the case, as an extraordinary forensic attitude towards these frame by frame photos that they say show a consensual act, in thatjenni hermoso lifted luis rubiales from his feet and then put him down, suggesting that the kiss that followed was a follow—up to that consensual act. so all of this has
9:05 am
been laid out, and then there is a simple sentence at the end of it, evidence is conclusive, they say, mr president has not lied, so a doubling down, yes, and absolutely entrenching of the position to say, we are backing our president. and those 81 spanish players who have refused to play, should they be called up for the next match, they too have an obligation to pay, says the federation, which is not really how international representation works, to the extent that as we heard, borja iglesias, a male player, said he will not be called up player, said he will not be called up are considered or considered himself for selection for the men's team whilst rubiales is in charge, so perhaps a suggestion that could be further pressure applied over the course of the next few days. the men's squad is announced for the next friday. irate men's squad is announced for the next friday-— men's squad is announced for the next friday. we will see if there is sohdafi next friday. we will see if there is solidarity from _ next friday. we will see if there is solidarity from there, _ next friday. we will see if there is solidarity from there, depending l next friday. we will see if there is l solidarity from there, depending on which version of events people are believing, thank you. it's 9:05, good morning. if you're travelling a bit more today, you will need to hear more about this,
9:06 am
there is further strike action, charlie. that's right. there will be disruption to rail services today as around 20,000 members of the rmt union take part in their latest strike over pay and conditions. there will be a reduced timetable for much of england, with some journeys into scotland and wales also affected. our reporter ellie pricejoins us from london euston. ellie — i guess a lot of bank holiday plans likely to be affected this weekend? a lot of people travelling, checking that notice board behind you and see what's moving and what's not? yes. what's moving and what's not? yes, and it's quite _ what's moving and what's not? yes, and it's quite sad, _ what's moving and what's not? yes, and it's quite sad, really, _ what's moving and what's not? yes and it's quite sad, really, watching people turn up and look hopefully up that the departures board and sort of, oh. but actually, those are all the trains leaving today and we are told they will go, obviously they are subject to some last—minute cancellations but obviously the ones that are already cancelled will not appear up there and i've spoke at people who turned up for trains that had already been cancelled. the services here started a bit later than they normally would, as you say, there are far fewer of them and
9:07 am
they're likely to finish earlier, that's the picture across england, 14 that's the picture across england, 1a train companies involved, and as you say, scotland and wales not affected per se but obviously cross—border services may be affected. this is a strike comprising of about 20,000 rmt members, as i say come across 1a different train companies. it's essentially about pay and conditions, it has been going on since last summer. the train companies say they have offered 5% pay rises to rmt members. the government says it has facilitated an agreement. at the rmt says, look, the offer simply is not enough, as i think you heard from nick lynch, the general secretary, earlier on. our members have voted three times for industrial — our members have voted three times for industrial action. _ our members have voted three times for industrial action. when _ our members have voted three times for industrial action. when we - our members have voted three times for industrial action. when we were . for industrial action. when we were given— for industrial action. when we were given the _ for industrial action. when we were given the previous _ for industrial action. when we were given the previous offer, _ for industrial action. when we were given the previous offer, which - for industrial action. when we were given the previous offer, which was predicated — given the previous offer, which was predicated on — given the previous offer, which was predicated on our— given the previous offer, which was predicated on our members - given the previous offer, which was predicated on our members being i given the previous offer, which was - predicated on our members being made unemployed, _ predicated on our members being made unemployed, i— predicated on our members being made unemployed. idon't— predicated on our members being made unemployed, idon't know— predicated on our members being made unemployed, i don't know who's - predicated on our members being made unemployed, i don't know who's going i unemployed, i don't know who's going to vote _ unemployed, i don't know who's going to vote in _ unemployed, i don't know who's going to vote in a _ unemployed, i don't know who's going to vote in a ballot _ unemployed, i don't know who's going to vote in a ballot to _ unemployed, i don't know who's going to vote in a ballot to get _ unemployed, i don't know who's going to vote in a ballot to get a _ unemployed, i don't know who's going to vote in a ballot to get a 5% - unemployed, idon't know who's going to vote in a ballot to get a 5% pay- to vote in a ballot to get a 5% pay rise at _ to vote in a ballot to get a 5% pay rise at the — to vote in a ballot to get a 5% pay rise at the cost _ to vote in a ballot to get a 5% pay rise at the cost of— to vote in a ballot to get a 5% pay rise at the cost of losing - to vote in a ballot to get a 5% pay rise at the cost of losing your- to vote in a ballot to get a 5% pay| rise at the cost of losing your own 'ob rise at the cost of losing your own job so— rise at the cost of losing your own job so you — rise at the cost of losing your own job so you won't _ rise at the cost of losing your own job so you won't get _ rise at the cost of losing your own

9:09 am
but say it must be balanced with the public“s right to access essential services. geoff barton, general secretary for the association of school and college leaders, told us why unions are apposing the legislation. if you the government want us the unions to have minimum service level agreements, can we have them with you? agreements, can we have them with ou? ., , ., ., agreements, can we have them with ou? ., ., , ., agreements, can we have them with ou? ., y., ., , . , you? could you run water services so we don't publish _ you? could you run water services so we don't publish on _ you? could you run water services so we don't publish on the _ you? could you run water services so we don't publish on the beaches? - we don't publish on the beaches? could _ we don't publish on the beaches? could you — we don't publish on the beaches? could you run a transport system that works — could you run a transport system that works for the north of england? could _ that works for the north of england? could you _ that works for the north of england? could you have a qualified teacher in every _ could you have a qualified teacher in every classroom? could you have a qualification — in every classroom? could you have a qualification system that doesn't leave _ qualification system that doesn't leave a _ qualification system that doesn't leave a third of young people feeling — leave a third of young people feeling marginalised? russia says 10 bodies and flight recorders have been recovered from the scene of a jet crash presumed to have killed wagner chief yevgeny prigozhin. the russian investigative committee say it's looking into what caused the crash. the kremlin has denied ordering the assassination of president putin's former close aide. the authorities in hawaii have released the names of nearly 340 people who are still missing after the deadliest wildfire on us soil for more than a century. it's the first such list to be released since the fire swept through the town of lahaina more than two weeks ago.
9:10 am
the government wants any survivors to come forward so the number of people can be accurately accounted for. four young people have died in a crash in county tipperary. the male driver, and three female teenage passengers, were killed in the incident. it's thought they had been on their way to celebrate after receiving the results of their exams. a nottinghamshire police officer remains in a serious condition after being hit by a train as he attempted to help a distressed man on the tracks. officers were called to an area near newark on thursday night. the man on the railway line also suffered injuries — but they are not believed to be life threatening. our midlands correspondent, phil mackie reports. it's a really busy stretch of the east coast main line, which passes through the village of balderton on the outskirts of newark in nottinghamshire. investigators were focusing their attention on the area where the incident happened
9:11 am
near a road bridge. nottinghamshire police said they'd responded to a call to help what they described as a distressed man on the railway lines, when one of its officers was hit by a train and suffered life—changing injuries. the man he saved suffered electrocution injuries, and both are being treated in hospital. there was a huge response. i noticed ten police cars and five ambulances, and they all came rushing up here from all directions. robertjenrick, the local mp and home office minister, said in a statement... "terrible incidents such as this remind us of the bravery of those although the line is fenced off, it wouldn't, for instance, be hard to jump over the gate that's guarded those offices and gain access to the line. but a key question that many people want answered is, if there was a police incident already under way, why wasn't the train stopped? as investigations continue,
9:12 am
the chief constable of nottinghamshire police said the officer was very poorly in hospital, and was a true hero. phil mackie, bbc news, balderson in nottinghamshire. balderton in nottinghamshire. the time is 9:12. we'll talk to sarah in a minute, but... maybe she can look at— sarah in a minute, but... maybe she can look at the _ sarah in a minute, but... maybe she can look at the pictures _ sarah in a minute, but... maybe she can look at the pictures and - sarah in a minute, but... maybe she can look at the pictures and bring i can look at the pictures and bring expertise to the table, we are talking about, sarah, a haynado. this is when you cross a dry grass and strong winds, see that? impressive! your bubble but it's not actually a tornado because a tornado forms from the basis of the cloud and comes to the basis of the cloud and comes to the surface, that's just a localised rawinda effect. —— sorry to burst your bubble. i wind from the ground upwards was a tornado goes from the ground downwards. —— that is a

9:14 am
sunshine and heavy, frequent showers around. tomorrow they will not be quite as heavy or numerous but we have got low pressure in charge through the next couple days, sitting out towards the east of the uk. this weather front is sitting out towards the east of the uk. this weatherfront is bringing sitting out towards the east of the uk. this weather front is bringing a bit more cloud and persistent rain to northern and western scotland, western parts of northern ireland as well. elsewhere a classic day of sunshine and heavy showers. they bubble up during the afternoon and will be heaviest across central and eastern parts of england but you could catch one almost anywhere. so, yes, the threat of some hail, some lightning, and potentially the funnel cloud as well so keep your ice peeled for that. rather cool, just 1a across the north—west of the uk but 22 in the sunny spells towards the south—east. and for any festivalgoers at reading or leeds we are expecting some showers at times but they will move through relatively quickly, could be sharp for a time but it looks like most of them will fade through the evening hours into the night. overnight tonight some clear spells across parts of eastern scotland into central and eastern england as well, could be a few mist and fog patches,
9:15 am
temperatures down into mid single figures for some, and cloud working in from the west of an approaching weather front heading towards northern ireland. through the day tomorrow, not quite as wet as today in terms of the showers but a few in the west first thing in the morning, western parts of england and wales. eastern scotland and eastern england see the bulk of the showers during the afternoon. an improved today for south—west england, wales, but northern ireland sees some cloud and outbreaks of rain. temperatures for most of us mid to high teens, again, 22 possible down towards london and the south—east, not particularly chilly but if you're heading to the notting hill carnival on sunday, you might want a brolly. ryan around at times. monday, though, looks dry are notjust in london but for many. high—pressure nudging in from the atlantic in the monday. a bank holiday for many of us, not everywhere, but a bit of cloud drifting south eastwards in the breeze, sunny spells, though, and much drier compared to saturday.
9:16 am
could catch a passing shower but most will avoid them. temperatures high teens, possibly low 20s, not wait for the time of year but should be ok with lighter winds and sunny spells on monday. the rest of the week, changeable, in a word. sarah, we'll see you later. —— thanks, sarah. for 12 years beckie ramsay has campaigned tirelessly to see greater water safety training in schools — following the death of her son, dyla n. dylan was just 13—years—old when he suffered cold water shock swimming in a quarry — a danger beckie has fought to be included as part of the curriculum. now, those efforts have paid off to a degree, with the government adding cold water shock, and other elements, to school teaching in england. beckie joins us now. good morning to you. morning. this is so personal— good morning to you. morning. this is so personal for— good morning to you. morning. this is so personal for you. _ good morning to you. morning. this is so personal for you. this - good morning to you. morning. this is so personal for you. this is - good morning to you. morning. this is so personal for you. this is so - is so personalfor you. this is so personal. are you okjust is so personalfor you. this is so personal. are you ok just telling is so personalfor you. this is so personal. are you okjust telling us a bit about the incident itself so people understand what happened, is

9:32 am
0k, ok, we are focusing on luis rubiales... that morning. and jenni hermoso, and this case, which is not being referred to as a kiss, and the fact that this story has really accelerated. developments of the last 2a or 48 hours has really accelerated. developments of the last 24 or 48 hours have come to the fore. irate of the last 24 or 48 hours have come to the fore-— to the fore. we were sitting here esterda to the fore. we were sitting here yesterday morning _ to the fore. we were sitting here yesterday morning talking - to the fore. we were sitting here yesterday morning talking about| to the fore. we were sitting here i yesterday morning talking about the spanish papers then saying that luis rubiales is likely to resign, the federation calling this emergency congress, which turned out to be him saying, multiple times, i am congress, which turned out to be him saying, multiple times, lam not resigning! then in response the number of spanish players said they would not represent their country if called upon to do so has reached 81 in the state of their release, including quote from jenni hermoso denying the kiss was consensual. those denials as a result of what
9:33 am
had been suggested by both luis rubiales and the spanish federation the last few days. then come overnight, the federation have doubled down, releasing these four photos which they say forensically prove, using evidence, that the incident was in fact consensual, directly contradicting whatjenni hermoso had said last night in that statement. but the photos deal with the moments leading up to the kiss, where it is shown she luis rubiales up where it is shown she luis rubiales up in a moment of celebration. the federation's contention is that that meant the whole incident was consensual and they said the evidence is clear and our president has not lied. but it has led to this, with the papers 24 hours on from saying he might resign, instead saying it is a global embarrassment for spanish football. it is saying it is a global embarrassment for spanish football.— for spanish football. it is moving re for spanish football. it is moving pretty quickly — for spanish football. it is moving pretty quickly and _ for spanish football. it is moving pretty quickly and people - for spanish football. it is moving pretty quickly and people are - pretty quickly and people are playing catch up along the way. now there is talk of legal action but against whom, by whom? the
9:34 am
federation — against whom, by whom? the federation have _ against whom, by whom? tue: federation have threatened against whom, by whom? tte: federation have threatened legal action against those players who made the statement last night, which included quotes from jenni hermoso saying it was not consensual. so they have threatened to respond to what they have claimed are lies from the players as the federation doubles down in support of luis rubiales and of course the players and potentially one men's player talking about not playing for the men's team, as well, in spain. so what next for luis rubiales after that whistle—stop tour through the last 24 hours? the spanish federation backed him but they are increasingly alone in doing so. the secretary a spot for the country say he wants this to be spanish football's metoo movement after the comet started legal proceedings against luis rubiales for kissing world cup startjenni hermoso on the lips. fifa have also opened disciplinary proceedings against rubiales, who has refused to resign despite overwhelming pressure. sexism is very prevalent, unfortunately. it's something that is very normalised here, which is why
9:35 am
you have someone like luis rubiales basically saying he doesn't understand what he did wrong, and he feels as though he clearly didn't do anything wrong. hopefully if any kind of good can come from this whole situation, it's that we do have a reflection as a society as a whole and do try to find a better way forwards as equals. there might have been a bit of apprehension among spurs fans after harry kane left for bayern munich, but under their new manager ange postecoglou they go into the premier league's early kick off with spirits high after they beat manchester united last weekend. although with bournemouth coming up at lunchtime, postecoglou insists it's still early days. we are to game since i'm not reading too much into anything at the moment. for me, it is about trying to establish principles and foundations for the team we want to be and it always helps when there is positive outcomes early in this phase. to the world athletics championships in budapest now, where the 200 metres finals brought hope but ultimately disappointment — partly because of the medal chances
9:36 am
going into the races. zharnel hughes finished 4th in the men's 200m. american noah lyles took gold to complete a sprint double after also winning the 100. american noah lyles took gold to complete a sprint double after also winning the 100. that was usa's eighth gold medal — the best tally so far at the worlds. hughes says he'll be using this disappointment as motivation at the paris olymipcs next year is going to be something special again. i'm putting it out there. me losing to these guys tonight has made me a lot more determined to come back again. dina asher smith won this event in 2019 but finished 7th in the women's 200m final, with fellow brit daryll neita in 5th. jamaica's shericka jackson stormed to victory in 21.41 seconds, a championship record. jackson was just seven hundredths off the world record. neita clocked a personal best, and while she was two places below, asher—smith still felt positive after the race.
9:37 am
sometimes when life hands you lemons you've got to make lemonade. yeah, i'm definitely looking forward to paris next year. i'm really motivated because i know when i'm at my best — again, not saying 21.4, but among the medals — and up there, that's definitely where i'm at. but, yeah, just done the best with the cards i've been dealt this week. there'll also be two british athletes in the women's 800 metres final. gemma reekie won her semi final and she'll be joined by medal hope keeley hodgkinson, who also came first in her semi despite a late surge by the usa's nia akins. hodgkinson realised just in time. the final is one of the last events of the championships tomorrow night. tonight there's a chance for a medal in the men's and women's 4x100 metres relays. both teams sealed their spots in their respective finals. the men's team finished in the top three of their heats. the women's team went one better — coming second, with the team of asha phillip, imani lansiquot, bianca williams and annie tagoe finishing behind the jamaican four. and they could call on both asher smith and neita
9:38 am
for that final tonight too. he might be the big underdog hoping to pull off one of the biggest shocks in british boxing history, but heavyweight daniel dubois says he is ready to "prove to the world" he's the best as he prepares to fight the champion oleksandr usyk tonight. the wbo, wba and ibf titles are on the line in poland. at yesterday's weigh—in dubois was at his lightest for six years — but still almost a stone heavier than usyk, who is the overwhelming favourite. the build—up to next month's rugby world cup has not been plain sailing for england. they have lost four of their last five games and the squad has been hampered by injuries and suspensions. today's final warm—up match against fiji at twickenham will be courtney lawes' 100th cap for his country and he believes the side can raise their level for when it matters. we just want to play how we know we can for each other, and we know we'll get there. so, you know, we're not... we're not too worried. we don't listen to a lot of the noise because...you know, when...
9:39 am
when... when it matters, i think... i think we'll, you know, we'll start performing how we know we can. scotland and ireland are also in action today. ireland play samoa this evening, whilst scotland take on georgia at murrayfield. and like a lot of the teams playing their final warm—up matches, they'll have half an eye on their first world cup games. for the scots that's against south africa i mean, you'vejust got to go flat out. it's a test match game, an opportunity to represent your country and give it everything you've got, and that's all we're thinking about. obviously it's a contact sport and there are risks in this game, but you can't really afford to think like that. you've just got to go flat out, play for your country, and hope that you come out the other side. daniel ricciardo has only recently returned to formula one, but he's already out of this weekend's dutch grand prix after crashing in friday practice. the australian joined the alpha tauri team two races ago, but on the sport's return from its summer break this crash in second practice resulted in him breaking his hand.
9:40 am
he'll be replaced by 2i—year—old new zealander liam lawson, who's never raced in formula one. britain's lando norris pipped championship leader max verstappen to be quickest in practice. it remains to be seen if there is any difference to the pervading mood of formula i, which is that red bull are completely dominant. it of formula 1, which is that red bull are completely dominant.— are completely dominant. it will chance at are completely dominant. it will change at one — are completely dominant. it will change at one point. _ are completely dominant. it will change at one point. thanks. i as the rising cost of living continues to hit households, more people are taking in lodgers as a way to help with their bills and mortgage payments. since the end of 2021, the website spare room says it's seen a 75% surge in adverts posted by homeowners — as celestina 0lulode reports. lucy and her two children have been welcoming lodgers into their home for the past year and a half. i think with mortgage rates going up, with council tax having gone up, with food bills shooting up as they are, the cost of energy, the cost of fuel, itjust gives me a bit of a sense of relief.
9:41 am
but how do you get used to sharing your home with a stranger? she has her own shelf in the freezer. it's tricky letting a stranger into your home. i did some checks, i took some references, but you still don't really know who's coming. there's some give—and—ta ke. you have to accept that your home is now also someone else's home. in the last year, websites like spare room say they have seen an increase in the number of homeowners posting adverts for lodgers. eva runs a houseshare website. it's always been a trend. over the last couple of years, we've seen a 50% rise in people coming to the site and interested in the idea. the site has around 50,000 registered users, so what are eva's tips for homeowners and lodgers? the most important thing is to be honest about what you want, and on our website you have the opportunity to create a profile,
9:42 am
and we encourage everyone to make that profile as specific as possible. so you can put in your interests, and i think that's extremely important just so you can find the right person. because there's the functional room, and it's nice if you find a nice room, but if you don't get on with the landlord or with the lodger then the whole thing doesn't really work out. and for homeowners, a few more points to consider. you can earn up to £7,500 a year tax—free. any more than this and you'll need to fill out a self—assessment tax return. bear in mind some lenders say you can't have a formal letting agreement, so always check with your mortgage provider first. don't forget about home insurance, and draw up an agreement with your lodger beforehand. long—term lodger siobhan has this piece of advice for people seeking accommodation. i moved into a place that was really dirty when i moved in. and i stupidly didn't say anything about it at the time, and i should have.
9:43 am
so one of the lessons i've learned is get an inventory. document what it looks like when you move in and... so you don't get stung for imaginary charges when you move out! it's all about communication, about defining the boundaries. i actually enjoy it, i like living with other people. you know, three out of the last four experiences have been great. and there's other benefits that come from renting out rooms in your home. hello, i'm sophie. this is peach. she is our airbnb usp, and this is our room. i in 2017 reading—based sophie started renting out this room after she was made redundant, but has carried on because she loves meeting new people. we charge £37 a night during the week. - she's welcomed more than 200 guests. it's a nice thing to do to meet- new people, to take care of people, to make new friends. i mean, we've got people who have
9:44 am
| come to stay with us over and over| again, and it's always- lovely to see them again. there have been some i interesting experiences, but generally very, very positive. celestina 0lulode, bbc news. we're nowjoined by property lawyer sophie campbell—adams. this is something a lot of people will be talking about spare room website, people struggling with bills and looking for another day. we should start with the reels. the difference between a lodger and a subtenant or a tenant. the difference between a lodger and a subtenant or a tenant.— subtenant or a tenant. the key difference _ subtenant or a tenant. the key difference between _ subtenant or a tenant. the key difference between the - subtenant or a tenant. the key difference between the two - subtenant or a tenant. the key difference between the two is l subtenant or a tenant. the key - difference between the two is what is called exclusive possession. with a tenant you have exclusive possession of the property as a whole and you can decide who comes in and when they come in. whereas with a lodger, one, the landlord lives with you and you share the
9:45 am
same facilities, but you don't have that exclusive possession. the landlord should, if they are smart and they prepared the agreement correctly, should reserve the right to come into your room whenever they want. so you don't create that exclusive possession. so want. so you don't create that exclusive possession.- want. so you don't create that exclusive possession. so with a loduer exclusive possession. so with a lodger you _ exclusive possession. so with a lodger you can _ exclusive possession. so with a lodger you can do _ exclusive possession. so with a lodger you can do that, - exclusive possession. so with a lodger you can do that, go - exclusive possession. so with a lodger you can do that, go into | exclusive possession. so with a . lodger you can do that, go into the room whenever you want. but if you were a subtenant or a tenant of the room, then the landlord would not have the right.— have the right. they would not necessarily _ have the right. they would not necessarily be _ have the right. they would not necessarily be a _ have the right. they would not necessarily be a subtenant - have the right. they would not - necessarily be a subtenant because you are still sharing the facilities, you are showing the kitchen, the bathroom, the living room with the landlord. so it would be difficult to create a subtenant agreement. in be difficult to create a subtenant agreement-— be difficult to create a subtenant aareement. , ., , agreement. in terms of the rules, if ou are agreement. in terms of the rules, if you are going _ agreement. in terms of the rules, if you are going to _ agreement. in terms of the rules, if you are going to consider _ agreement. in terms of the rules, if you are going to consider having - you are going to consider having someone else live in your home and pay y°u' someone else live in your home and pay you, who do you have to inform? you will have to do firstly speak with your lender if you have a mortgage because there may be with your lender if you have a mortgage because there may he terms within your mortgage deed that say you cannot share occupation. so it is always worth speaking to them
9:46 am
first and saying, i am thinking about getting a lodger, will i be breaching my terms? what you don't want to do is not to tell them, the lender then finds out, and they consider that to be an event of default, and so they can, if they want to, say i need all of the mortgage paid now. let want to, say i need all of the mortgage paid now.- want to, say i need all of the mortgage paid now. let me paint a scenario for — mortgage paid now. let me paint a scenario for you _ mortgage paid now. let me paint a scenario for you and _ mortgage paid now. let me paint a scenario for you and you _ mortgage paid now. let me paint a scenario for you and you can - mortgage paid now. let me paint a scenario for you and you can pick i scenario for you and you can pick your way through it. there is a she” your way through it. there is a shelf in the fridge. i've got a lodger. and there is a shelf in the fridge. and there is an argument about who has had the milk. and it escalates. you don't call them... who is the other person? you have the lodger and the?— who is the other person? you have the lodger and the?_ the | the lodger and the? landlord. the landlord says. _ the lodger and the? landlord. the landlord says. i— the lodger and the? landlord. the landlord says, i have _ the lodger and the? landlord. the landlord says, i have had - the lodger and the? landlord. the landlord says, i have had enough l the lodger and the? landlord. the | landlord says, i have had enough of this, it has happened four times in a row, you are out. and i want you out tonight. and the lodger meanwhile is saying, what are you making false about? it is just milk. i don't want to go, i have no way to go. what does the law say hello the difficulty with lodgers is that you
9:47 am
have far difficulty with lodgers is that gm. have far fewer rights than tenants. it doesn't mean you can get evicted overnight but you are not as protected as tenants. for example, with a tenant you have to serve an eviction notice and if they don't believe you have to get an order for possession. whereas with lodgers, as long as you terminate it in accordance with the agreement, so if you have to give a week's notice, you have to give a week's notice, you get a week's notice, and then they can leave the property. 50 you get a week's notice, and then they can leave the property. so you no they can leave the property. so you to back to they can leave the property. so you go back to the _ they can leave the property. so you go back to the documents - they can leave the property. so you go back to the documents you - they can leave the property. so you go back to the documents you have j go back to the documents you have signed. ideally. but i'm assuming quite a lot of these lodger situations, there is no document, no agreement. ads, situations, there is no document, no agreement-— situations, there is no document, no| agreement-_ you agreement. a casual agreement. you have it informally, _ agreement. a casual agreement. you have it informally, just _ agreement. a casual agreement. you have it informally, just do _ agreement. a casual agreement. you have it informally, just do it. - agreement. a casual agreement. you have it informally, just do it. what i have it informally, just do it. what about then? the have it informally, 'ust do it. what about then?— have it informally, 'ust do it. what aboutthen? ., , �* . have it informally, 'ust do it. what aboutthen? ., ,�* . . about then? the doesn't have to be a formal agreement. _ about then? the doesn't have to be a formal agreement. it _ about then? the doesn't have to be a formal agreement. it is _ about then? the doesn't have to be a formal agreement. it is always, - formal agreement. it is always, always wise to have one. if formal agreement. it is always, always wise to have one. if there is not, what happens _ always wise to have one. if there is not, what happens in _ always wise to have one. if there is not, what happens in the _ always wise to have one. if there is not, what happens in the scenario. always wise to have one. if there is not, what happens in the scenario i am talking about?— am talking about? then you still have to give _ am talking about? then you still have to give reasonable - am talking about? then you still have to give reasonable notice, | am talking about? then you still i have to give reasonable notice, and reasonable all comes down to the circumstances. if you pay rent

will come alive with colour, costumes and, of course, music this weekend — as notting hill carnival returns. organisers have been hard at work preparing for europe's largest street party — with millions expected to attend. wendy hurrell has more. music. soon, these streets will be filled with feathers and sequins, delicious wafts of food, vibrant music... ..and two million people. so provision must be made. many local businesses decide to shut and board up — so a busy day for the builders. every year we come up here, sort of day before, get it boarded up and then normally it's the tuesday after. so, yeah, it's pretty full—on. it was already graffitied last night. we had to clean some off. so, yeah, it'sjust to stop — just to stop damage. private and council housing gets a similar protection — not least to stop front gardens becoming, well, public latrines. it's a pretty basic system, but these compost loos are unique to the notting hill carnival, as they're built on site.

so we're building 495 across 47 locations, and then an additional 39 accessible units. we have four days to build, which isn't too bad — it's 120 a day, which is fairly achievable with a team of about 12 of us. 24 hours to pack it all down afterwards. so that's the harderjob. as is the policing of such an event. the met works for months with other authorities and partners to make sure carnival is safe. they will be closely monitoring crowd density in particular. we have briefed stewards and officers to look out for any signs that those crowds are getting quite dense. we also have the mounted branch in place this year — officers on horses who can see quite far ahead. and so we'll be monitoring as we go and constantly to ensure that we can pick up any sign that things are getting too crowded, and then we can take the necessary action. and there will be areas where people can retreat, run in partnership with the charity
