later — wicked, emilia perez, conclave, and the brutalist are all in the running for top prizes. hello. let's return to the widespread disruption across the uk due to heavy snow and freezing rain. there are amber warnings in place in parts of northern england and the midlands. forecasters say up to a0 centimetres of snow could fall in some places. my colleague at the bbc weather centre, nicky, how is it looking now. martin, it is raining here in leeds and the snow is beginning to melt. it is turning to that sludgy stuff you get after you have had a downfall of snow. we
3:31 pm
are still in the amber alert. it lasts in this northern part of the country through until midnight tonight. there are still concerns that there can be that snowfall on the higher ground, the pennines, but we could see up to a0 centimetres. bingley in yorkshire, not far from here, saw 16 centimetres in the morning and overnight. this area is definitely dealing with the aftermath of the snow. that has come in a number of forms right now. first of all, the good news, the airport has in the last hour or so reopened its runway, it was shut all morning, the snowploughs are out trying to clear it. however, there is going to be delays there. there are loads of people waiting to get flights that did not go so now there are going to be delays as those flights goes through. same applies for manchester and also at liverpooljohn lennon airport. where there is a problem is on the railways because northern national rail
3:32 pm
haveissued because northern national rail have issued a do not travel alert for northern rail. they were having trouble already running services from manchester airport through to here in leeds and they are basically saying that any services they do run may be cancelled at short notice and may be delayed. there are also saying that they would advise passengers who have a ticket for today that they can use it tomorrow. trans— pennine express, and the same for scotrail. issues with transport. the roads, of course, the sludge is causing problem and if it does freeze again tonight then those roads could turn into a skating rink. we need to know what is going to happen over the next 2a hours weather—wise. elizabeth rizzini has been looking at the latest forecast and she has the details. hi there. well, many of us woke up to a blanket of snow earlier on this morning, but with milder air moving in from the south. then the snow turned quickly back to rain and there's been some snow melt to towards the south, but the highest accumulations
3:33 pm
have been across the pennines, the cumbrian fells into the southern uplands and here in north yorkshire there's been drifting snow too, with brisk easterly winds. but this is the radar picture from earlier on. you can see where we've had the snow and the rain and then the snow turning back to rain quickly towards the south and the snow continues to fall across northern england. and that's why there is still a met office weather warning in force. it's an amberwarning. second highest level of alert is valid until midnight tonight, and we could possibly see accumulations of up to 30 to a0cm across the tops of the pennines into the fells perhaps as well, some of that drifting around, severe travel disruption and then of course very icy surfaces overnight tonight. and ice is going to be a particular problem i think, for many, because that milder air doesn't really get much further north than north wales and into the north midlands, so it stays very cold within these areas. a little bit of sleet and some of those showers across the higher ground of northern ireland, perhaps into the southern uplands too, and rain could be an issue further south. it will be quite heavy at times and there'll be
3:34 pm
some added snow melt, so a lot of spray on the roads, of course, but look how mild it is in the south. 12 or 13 c. still very cold though further north. now as we head through this evening and overnight there will be more wintriness. of course, with that colder air and everything willjust tend to refreeze onto the roads and the pavements as well. so very icy conditions into the start of next week. it could be quite a big problem on some of our roads. it's going to stay cold and even where it turns milder in the south east, then it will turn colder here. more wintry showers to come in the forecast and widespread frost by night too. so here's the outlook for our capital cities into monday. some wintry showers, particularly in the north and in the west. there will be some sunshine around but frosty by night. staying very cold, but certainly quieter weather wise than this weekend. thank you, elizabeth. don't

3:42 pm
snow plough is a community interest company. and we grit and plough a lot of the little back roads around the village of nenthead in cumbria. we've got about a dozen volunteers involved, men and women from 30 to 63 years old. we've got all sorts of trades and professions involved. we've got handyman, business manager, artist, a military veteran, an it professional who's also a blacksmith. and basically we plough and grit. we've got two machines, the big snow plough, which you can see in the background, plus a smaller plough and gritter and we cover about a ten—mile route serving perhaps 50 to 60 houses that wouldn't otherwise be accessed by the council gritters.
3:43 pm
that was kevin who was talking to us earlier. you may remember backin to us earlier. you may remember back in 2021 there was a pub that got snowed in for four days. there has been snow up there in richmond today and a little earlier on... earlier, i spoke to nicole hayes who is manager of the tan hill inn in richmond, britain's highest pub! she told us what it's like there. um, yeah, we've got four—foot snow drifts already. the roads blocked. there's snow up to people's tyres. there has been a couple of people try to escape, but no one's really succeeded. so four foot — that is quite a lot. so, you are high up, which is why you get this amount of snow. and you are used to it up there, aren't you? yeah, we're definitely... we are prepared and ready for it. we knew it was coming. and so what do you do when you know it's coming? do the locals now come to you? especially because they know there's going to be a nice warm welcome there? yeah, we've had some locals
3:44 pm
in yesterday that have stayed with us throughout the day, but some of them went home last night. we've got a family in that's from australia that's actually stuck with us at the moment. so they're over the moon to be stuck here because they've seen us. that got stuck here back in december as well. so they're really happy to be stuck with us. but we've got plenty of logs. we've got enough stock to last us a month, so we're very well prepared. yes. you mentioned australians... emma, who is holding my camera at the moment, is an australian and she's enjoying the snow here more than i am, it has to be said. this morning because she's not used to it. so i think the australians probably actually like seeing this amount of snow. so, how long can you survive in the pub if you do get stuck in there? well, it was four days last time and we still had plenty of stock left and we have enough stock to last us a month. we've got our chef yesterday prepared loads of batch—cooked food ready for the next few days ahead. we know the warning is in till monday evening so we are prepared.
3:45 pm
we've got enough food and everything to last like i said, a full month. hopefully it doesn't come to that, but we're prepared in case it does. hopefully, it will not come to that. that was nicole hayes up there in richmond who have had a lot of snow today. you can see here in leeds, the rain is coming down quite hard now. the snow beginning to melt a little bit but as we heard from elizabeth rizzini earlier on the concern is that if this freezes, it turns into ice. don't forget, you get the latest information from across the country, including the republic of ireland where they have been really badly hit, on the bbc news website and app, that has all the details from across the country about the cold weather. martin, it's back to you in that night, one studio in london. you still look and sound chip! thank you very much.
3:46 pm
let's return to the ongoing dispute between elon musk and nigel farage. in the past hour, the world's richest man took aim at mr farage — writing on x that he "doesn't have what it takes" to lead reform uk. mr farage responded writing "elon is a remarkable individual but on this i am afraid i disagree". this morning, the reform uk leader sat down with laura kuenssberg on bbc one, where he was asked about mr musk�*s attacks against the labour party, over the grooming gangs scandal. here's some of that conversation. some of the people here we've spoken to this afternoon, though, seem to be coming to you because they're very angry. they're very angry about the state of the country. do you think that's what it's about. as they should be, as they should be. you know, the reopening of the debate around the. well, they called it the grooming gang scandal, but it's not. it's the mass rape scandal. i just think people ask themselves, what has happened to our country? how could this possibly have happened? why did everybody want to cover it up?
3:47 pm
why has there been no full public inquiry? people are angry about that. yes. and they're right to be. absolutely right to be. they're also angry. economically, we are getting poorer. you know, if you look at the last eight quarters, gdp per capita is falling in six of them. and it coincides with the period of record net legal migration. mass immigration not only makes it tough for young people to get a house not only makes it very difficult to see a gp not only makes our roads and infrastructure struggle to cope, it's making us poorer. and i think the anger isn't directed at the labour or conservative parties. i think people increasingly regard them as a uni party. so you're right, they're coming to us because they're angry, but they're not coming to us to stick two fingers up to the establishment. they're coming to us because they think we've got the courage to do what's necessary to turn this around. but what do you plan
3:48 pm
to do with that? i mean, what's your dream scenario for 2025, 2025? it's to build the structure of the party, you know, and since really august of last year, we've tried with nothing to build branch structure, to put in place a very rigorous and i mean extremely rigorous vetting procedure for candidates at all levels, because that was the big failing, you know, of what we had at the last election. huge failing, no question about that. 2025 was about getting that machine actually working to start to win some victories. our ultimate goal, and i'm notjoking, is to win the next general election. you say you've done it with nothing. you have had a very useful thing, the support and the oxygen of the support from someone who's on his way back to the white house and elon musk, the richest man in the world, who just happens to also own one of the biggest social media platforms in the world. now, you mentioned there people's anger over
3:49 pm
the grooming scandal as it's known, and it is well understood now that there were failings over many, many years. there's no question about that. everybody understands that that has taken place and nobody would excuse what has happened for a second. however, your political friend elon musk has made pretty outlandish claims about exactly what happened there, and he wrote online that the prime minister was complicit in the rape of britain. is it acceptable for the world's richest man with a friend on his way back to the white house to spread those kinds of misleading and what many people would think are pretty offensive claims online. well, you either believe in free speech or you don't. now, free speech has its limits. 0bviously, incitement being perhaps the clearest example of what's not acceptable. remember before musk came along and bought twitter, free speech was dying on social media. and if you criticise the lockdowns that were happening in this country, your accounts were being suspended. so musk describes himself as
3:50 pm
a free speech absolutist now. now, you know, what he's referring to there specifically is that in 2008, keir starmer was had just been appointed as director of public prosecutions, and there was a case brought before them of alleged mass rape of young girls that did not lead to a prosecution. i don't know the rights and wrongs of that any more than you do. but the point... but if you believe in free speech, people are allowed to have an opinion. but as you just said, free speech does not have a completely unlimited bind. is it acceptable? so i'lljust ask this again, because elon musk seems to be very busy making these kinds of very, very, very provocative claims about british politicians. he said keir starmer was complicit in the rape of britain. he said thatjess phillips, who's a government minister who has worked her whole career helping victims of abuse, he said that she was rape, a rape, genocide apologist.
3:51 pm
this afternoon, he said that she's a wicked witch, that she is pure evil. is it acceptable for somebody with elon musk�*s platform to say those kinds of things? i tell you what, you know, those on the left have thrown these sort of jibes at the right for many, many decades and will go on doing so. but i'm asking you about this. is that acceptable? if it turns out if and i mean, you know, i'm going to caveat this. if it turns out that keir starmer as director of public prosecutions, did, in effect, not prosecute a case for fear of what it would do to community relations for fear that it would provoke the charge of racism. well, if that's the case, then he is open to be criticised and we all criticise in our own way. it doesn't mean that i would. and by the way, the fact that musk supports me and supports reform doesn't mean as two grown ups, we have to agree with everything the other says. but the evidence actually from keir starmer�*s time is at the crown prosecution service, was actually, he put in place specialist prosecutors to deal
3:52 pm
with these kinds of problem. he did prosecute many cases like this now as we've discussed. as we've discussed. nobody would deny nobody would deny that many vulnerable girls were appallingly let down that many vulnerable girls were appallingly let down by people across the piece. by people across the piece. but my question to you, but my question to you, again is, i think as again is, i think as a senior politician, a senior politician, as somebody who wants to get. as somebody who wants to get. i really don't think let down i really don't think let down is an acceptable way is an acceptable way of putting this. of putting this. i mean, it's as if, i mean, it's as if, oh, well, it's all a oh, well, it's all a little bit of a pity. little bit of a pity. no, what happened was absolutely, truly no, what happened was absolutely, truly be awful in a way that we ought be awful in a way that we ought to be actually ashamed of, to be actually ashamed of, ashamed of in every way. ashamed of in every way. but the question here that but the question here that i'm asking you is not i'm asking you is not about what happened about what happened in the grooming scandal. as you rightly say, in the grooming scandal. as you rightly say, everybody will agree everybody will agree that it was appalling. that it was appalling. the truth about that came out the truth about that came out over a period of many years. over a period of many years. but is it... but is it... drip feed, drip feed? drip feed, drip feed? drip feed? drip feed? no big, full national public inquiry. no big, full national public inquiry. jess phillips. jess phillips. jess phillips has denied that jess phillips has denied that the conservative administration the conservative administration before equally denied that. before equally denied that.
3:54 pm
and i've been getting a little look at how the celebrities get ready. but first, the runners and riders. here we go. you're green. iam. wicked, the wizard of oz reimagined, has been spellbinding audiences as a stage show for two decades. now, as one of the biggest films of the year, it could win best musical or comedy at the globes with cynthia erivo and ariana grande up for acting awards. are you...english? no, no, i'm not english...why? but the surprise stand—out with the most nominations is emilia perez, a film about a transgender mexican drug lord. kate winslet is nominated for her roles in the film lee and tv�*s the regime, while daniel craig and ralph fiennes are both up for best actor. denzel washington has his 11th golden globes nomination for gladiator 2. but awards season is about much more than the accolades.
3:55 pm
it's a chance for celebrities and designers to make their mark on the red carpet. so stylists like ceren are busy behind the scenes. how you look, the appearance is the most important thing on the red carpet. how do you decide what dress a celebrity should wear? i work according to their personality, their style. you imagine it first and then when you see it on the red carpet and then when people love it or like it, you feel satisfied. having a dress is one thing, but it's nothing without the right pose, because even if you are not walking away with an award, getting snapped with a memorable look on the red carpet... right...next. ..will mean media attention in magazines and keep celebrities in the spotlight. the sky's the limit. and the night could also hold clues for who may do well at the oscars later in the season. emma vardy, bbc news, los angeles. # 0hh—hhhhh!
3:56 pm
now time for the weather forecast with elizabeth. hello there. good afternoon. across the southern half of the uk, the snow where we've seen it has now turned back to rain. and there's been some added snow melt too, in that milder feeling air. but across northern england there is still an amber met 0ffice weather warning in force for snow. and that covers these areas, particularly the higher ground of the pennines and the cumbrian fells, where we could still see some more accumulations of sleet, a mix of rain and some wet snow i think towards lower levels, but the possibility of some drifting snow still too, with brisk easterly winds across the higher ground, some of the snow making its way into the southern uplands, but a sunshine for northern scotland perhaps. it remains windy towards coastal areas and there'll be a lot of spray with that snow melt and extra rain across the southern half of england and wales, where it's mild, 12 or 13 c, but it remains very cold further north. and the milder air never quite gets here either, so it's likely that we'll see everything refreeze onto the roads and the pavements through the overnight period with that colder feeling air. so lots of ice into tomorrow morning and again, plenty of rain at times just curling
3:57 pm
across the midlands and into east anglia by the time we get to the start of the day tomorrow. so icy surfaces still mild though in the far south and east. so next week an icy start is going to be an issue, i think into monday morning for many and it will stay cold. it's going to turn colder too where we've had that milder air across east anglia and south east england, as that low curls away and we draw down the northerly wind again on monday. so it's another blustery day, particularly for these north sea facing coasts. some rain here to start that moves away. wintry showers across eastern scotland running down through northeast england. perhaps also some wintriness in these showers across northern ireland into many parts of wales and down through the moors. temperatures dipping throughout the day across east anglia, southeast england and elsewhere. i don't think we'll get much past 2 or 3 c, so there'll be a widespread frost on monday night into tuesday, as those winds inland tend to lighten. we're staying in the cold air as we head through the rest of the week. take a look at wednesday.
3:58 pm
this area of low pressure could start to graze the southern part of england and on the leading edge, there could possibly be a little bit of snow on it as well. so the possibility of some snow in the south. but generally speaking, its quiet next week, there will be overnight frost again, some icy surfaces, but also some sunshine and very cold.
3:59 pm
live from london. this is bbc news. a severe weather alert is in place for parts of northern england after heavy snow overnight, causing travel disruption. though manchester, liverpool and leeds bradford airports have reopened their runways after temporarily closing for a few hours. live in leeds yorkshire is one of the worst hit areas. we have some power cuts here and there is a do not travel alert out of a northern rail. snow is also spreading across parts of the us. weather warnings affecting 60 million people have been issued for a storm that could bring the heaviest snowfall in over a decade.
4:00 pm
and elon musk has taken aim at reform uk leader, nigel farage — writing on x that he "doesn't have what it takes" to lead the party. live in atlanta, georgia schools of people are coming to pay their respects in person to the former president, jimmy carter. the 82nd golden globes will take place in los angeles later — wicked, emilia perez, conclave, and the brutalist are all in the running for top prizes. hello. i'm martine croxall. heavy snow and freezing rain is causing widespread disruption across the uk — with amber warnings in place in parts of northern england and the midlands. forecasters say up to a0 centimetres of snow could fall in some places, and temperatures overnight fell as low as minus 11 celsius. after earlier closures due to snow and ice, the runways at liverpool, manchester and leeds bradford airports have now reopened —
