and together with another dozen students from bournemouth school for girls, they are team ultravioletot room for a little one? they've been working during lunchtimes and school holidays to build a robot to compete in a national competition called the first tech challenge uk. each year, participating schools and other groups of young people are sent an enormous kit of parts and asked to design a robot that can race against other bots to collect plastic hexagons, called pixels, in an arena, and then do a whole load of other mind—bending tasks, too. now, in the grand final at the national championships, the task is this — the robots have to spend the first 30 seconds driving around autonomously and dropping one of these pixels onto a predetermined point that's onlyjust been chosen before the clock starts running. the next 90 seconds are spent being manually driven around and depositing as many of these pixels as possible into the target boards over there. then, the things have to do pull—ups on these bars, and also launch a paper aeroplane at a line just outside the arena. got it? good.

we had a terrible incident in bournemouth here where a couple of people lost their lives, because of a freak wave that came through and they drowned. the speculation that came through that it was to do with one of the boats, the big, big, boats that operate in this area. the boat operator lost his job because of it. it had nothing to do with it. but the police were very slow in providing information. >> now, the truth matters. yeah, yeah, the truth matters. >> speculation to go overboard. it really did from there. i do absolutely agree with you. i simply plea with you that you must recognise that your comments, particularly on terrorism, that i lost my brother in the bali bombing. okay. you know that i've been affected by terrorism not once, but a number of times in my life. so when people use that word and it's rife, it's still there. we've got isis, k that's going to grow larger than al—qaeda. what are we doing about it? these are important questions that you and i can spend a lot of time discussing and debating. but when we tie it up in what's going on in the southport, until we h

the two asylum seekers were let off with community service elsewhere in bournemouth.sylum seeker who was found guilty of assaulting a female police officer after drunkenly pestering female joggers , was pestering female joggers, was let off with a slap on the wrist. so jordanian national mustafa al beau biden was originally going to be given community service. but get this, the judge decided to not make him do that because he doesn't speak english and he'd need a full time interpreter. and apparently that might cause some kind of health and safety risk. instead, he's been fined £26, which you'll have to pay back at the rate of £2 a month. apparently for the past four months, he's been staying at the roundhouse hotel , which months, he's been staying at the roundhouse hotel, which has a home office contract to house asylum seekers while their applications are processed. now, in each of these cases, there appears, as far as i'm aware anyway, to be no indication that anyway, to be no indication that any of them might be deported. i'd quite like to know whether or not lab

they were at burnley and bournemouth and they are at newcastle but he is in a job or ask graham potter potter is not so who does graham potter is not so who does graham potter become the easier option for the fa are they not look at it like that? in option for the fa are they not look at it like that?— at it like that? in the past, the fa have appointed — at it like that? in the past, the fa have appointed england _ at it like that? in the past, the fa| have appointed england managers at it like that? in the past, the fa - have appointed england managers who were premier league managers it happened in 2016 and 2012 so as not possible to clearly newcastle would not want to lose howe and it would therefore cost the fa more money to a point howe than it would to appoint potter. potter has been out of work for a while now, but i think if the fa wants to go down that route it will be a lot simpler for them to simply appoint him or perhaps one of the other manager if you are out of work. you mentioned if they want to go for a big name for manager... i if they want to go for a big name for ma

but you told me about bournemouth. bournemouth was that eat in or eat out, eat out, eat out. right.chips at other places, but my personal experience of wetherspoons in epsom in surrey, a nice part of the world. fish, chips and peas and a pint of bitter £10.02 not bad. eat in, eat in a special pensioners deal though mike. >> oh sorry. i'm sorry. >> that is for everybody. whether you are entering early middle age like me or whether you're a stripling youngster , he you're a stripling youngster, he said that when you said you were entering into early middle age to me in the green room, i thought you were being serious earlier. >> you then told me you're nearly 70. >> i'm. excuse me? i mean, what is this? what is this character assassination ? do we need this assassination? do we need this on this show? >> i've got to the age where i've now had to shave my beard off, which has gone white in order to look slightly more youthful. >> oh, right. okay. not working, but. but fish and chips is a staple diet in this country, and it's gone extraordinarily expensive in places where they can get a

eddie's done great at bournemouth. coming through. at newcastle , but last season was newcastle, but last season was a huge drop off. lee kwasi, under 21 manager, has been mentioned again. it's a huge step up, you know, to make that leap. so i'm not sure. i don't think that there is no outstanding candidate. jurgen klopp, julian nagelsmann, pep guardiola are not going to take this job, carlo ancelotti is not going to take. they are not going to take the england job because they know the only way to be successful is to win the next world cup and with all the other teams obviously that come into it, not just in europe and the rest of the world, argentina, brazil and all the other nations. it's going to be very, very difficult to win that. so be careful what you wish for. everyone wants to get rid of gareth southgate, but i fear that if we do, i'm not sure we make a semi—final of the world cup. >> now, danny mills, final question. do you think that the england manager should be english? does that not matter? >> i preferably, yes, but i d

players are currently stateside and preparing for pre—season matches against premier league teams bournemouthst. having them in the us makes a pleasant change for their superstar owners to see them who normally find themselves following their team at odd times of the day. we caught up with one of them, hollywood actor mcelhenney, who told us the time difference between the us and uk makes watching matches difficult for him. he suffers from the same as the rest of us in that he gets worried in the morning. highlights from royal troon on bbc two this afternoon. you can follow it all on the bbc sport website and app throughout the day. it looks like it will be a fascinating day. good buy from us. let's bring you more on the news that we brought you earlier in the programme that a court in russia has found a us journalist evan gershkovich guilty of espionage and sentenced him to 16 years in prison. we can speak to steve rosenberg who is outside the court. you were there, steve, when this happened. not the result that his friends and family wanted to hear. trio. not the result that his friends and

bournemouth seats three seats in cornwall, aldershot and a lot of them with big majorities. country changed significantly on thursday. i think they had trust in keir starmer in a way that they most certainly didn't have trust in jeremy corbyn and they voted for change and it's frankly like a breath of fresh air, a breath of fresh air emma woolf, a breath of fresh air. >> oh no. a lot of people didn't vote at all. >> i think the low turnout is one of the stories of this election. this let's be clear. this is a story of tory collapse. it's not a story of a huge, huge, overwhelming enthusiasm or love for the labour party. but to me, the real issue here is that is the numbers is the disparity between the number of votes cast and the and the representation. and i think that needs to be addressed urgently. the disparity between the number of votes. let's just run through those key numbers. reform got 4.1 million votes and got five seats, lib dems 3.5 million votes and 71 seats. >> i thought it was 72. so 7171. >> i thought it was 72. so 7171. >> yep. green 1.9 million and got four

. >> in 1924, the family moved to bournemouth and, his dad, his family, rather, they used to own a pube various a pub down there, where various variety acts would come and stay when they were touring. and, tony hancock just used to sit at the end of the bar and watch and watch them performing, you know, after hours, so to speak. and it all kind of just went into his act. and then, yeah, throughout the post—war years, he performed famously at the windmill theatre, known as the theatre that never closed during the second world war. and from there he went into radio work. galton simpson found him on a radio series called, happy go lucky. i believe in the early 50s. and they then created hancock's half hourin they then created hancock's half hour in 1953 as a radio series, firstly, and then it transferred very successfully to the tv in 1956, and it ran for seven series. yeah. >> and now your show, which i'm so excited about. it features three lost episodes. how on earth did they lose three episodes of this classic comedy ? episodes of this classic comedy? >> oh goodness me, goodness me, i

, but the idea that your family, you know, come from preston or you've come from, i don't know, bournemouth and suddenly they build all these social housing because 40% of all housing now has to be social, right? and suddenly you find a load of people that have arrived on a boat from iran has just turned up and taken the spot for you and your family. i could see that being a problem. and knowing starmer, it won't happen, okay? it will suddenly say, do you know what i've been thinking about this and i've been thinking about the shouting. i've been getting at as i walk down the street and i tell you what, i've changed my mind. now on the question of what green belt . honestly, i what green belt. honestly, i sometimes see horses in the field and i think to myself, would it be such a bad thing if they built some houses and actually moved that horse to another field? so i'm quite understand. they clearly the labour government have not been around lots of the country because there is massive green belt, building going on right now. i can, i could take you to a place great dunmow in, in essex. act

in dorset, bournemouth east was one of the seats that turned to labour for the first time.parties simply don't win elections, so let's take time. how we conduct ourselves now and the direction we choose to go could determine the fate of my party, all the success of my party in the future. i the success of my party in the future. ., . ,, the success of my party in the future. ., . i. . the success of my party in the future. ., . ,, . , future. i notice you are using the word we allot. _ future. i notice you are using the word we allot. you _ future. i notice you are using the word we allot. you are _ future. i notice you are using the word we allot. you are no - future. i notice you are using the word we allot. you are no longerj future. i notice you are using the i word we allot. you are no longer a conservative mp. are you advocating yourself as part of the solution. you personally, and there will be other mp5 who have lost their seats like you, what you think your role is now in what the party does next? that's a good question, ultimately be up to my local association, bu

i've just been texted four minutes ago, another stabbing in bournemouth last night.ast night or the night before last. a man was attacked by somebody with a knife in a park in ipswich. it's not life threatening, but it's life changing. life changing needs to happen today on knife crime. we can't make any excuses unless this government get their act together , and i've seen act together, and i've seen nothing in their manifesto. that's reassures me to reassure the public and victims of crime that this government have got anyidea that this government have got any idea of taking knife crime seriously. it's no good, martin. giving somebody a football and saying, have a kick around. let's sit down round a table. let's sit down round a table. let me tell you how bad it is. and i know we've we're sort of caught for time. martin 4000 gangsin caught for time. martin 4000 gangs in britain 4200. in london. they number from 12 to 50. nearly every single one of those will be carrying a knife. how does a government expect to address them? we don't have the police. we need at least

many of these people with previous criminal records, there was a young lad in bournemouth, i think, orlled by a guy who'd committed a double murder in serbia. we are letting these people in at a national security risk and it's encouraged. it's a crime. it's the only crime in the country that's encouraged. i just it's bizarre. very strange. >> i think it's technically, technically, it's his a crime. but what they're doing is their humanitarian act of desperation. and you need to recognise that , and you need to recognise that, do you? >> yeah. >> yeah. >> and so that's that's why you need to have to be here. >> thank you so much. time for more later . >> thank you so much. time for more later. but now we're moving on to the news headlines with tatiana sanchez . tatiana sanchez. >> miriam, thank you and good morning. the top stories this houn morning. the top stories this hour. a police officer has been suspended from all duties after a video emerged appearing to show a person being kicked in the head during an altercation at manchester airport, greater manchester police says three of it

when you've got graham potter at brighton and also eddie howe at bournemouth.die howe, has he done anything at newcastle? newcastle has been a worse season than they had before potter had. >> i think he's a good manager. yeah, i do think he is, but i still don't see him going to the england job. i still think newcastle and the potential newcastle and the potential newcastle have is a betterjob than england. yeah >> and do we think. and the other one is lee carsley. not a big enough name. yeah i'm under 21. successful. they won the european championship. but people are going to want a name to be the england manager. and with respect to him, i don't think he's at that level yet. so that's pretty much where we are at the moment, there's, there's friendlies coming up in september. is there going to be an interim? i think, you know, i think the fa have a good idea already who it's going to be, >> as if we weren't fed up with it. international football enough. it. international football enough . then along come the enough. then along come the lionesses yesterday with

much due consideration paid to the defence, that that's the trajectory of his career, certainly at bournemouthely important what they do and he's a very much cut from that far cloth, as would be graham potter. so the fa clearly feel that, yes , it's important feel that, yes, it's important to tick those boxes off the pitch, but can he just be that extra, extra step or extra advancement on from gareth southgate on the pitch? i think he can deliver that. he's got some great players coming through. there's still loads hanging around from the last couple of tournaments. harry kaneisnt couple of tournaments. harry kane isn't done yet when he gets fit. i think he will be a formidable england player again and a formidable captain, and you've got some superb players in in the some of them haven't even played for england yet who are going to get a look in in the next couple of tournaments. so it's a good time to take the job. i think they'll pay more than the £5 million that they're paying than the £5 million that they're paying gareth southgate now. eddie howe currently earns 4 million plus 1,000,000i

tobias ellwood is also gone in bournemouth. >> well, i mean look, a lot of very good colleagues losing i think in so far as we can say that something, you know , slightly something, you know, slightly positive, looking at some of the polls, it was extinction level and it could have taken us down to a level where it was impossible to come back. i think we've got something to work with, but it's going to be very difficult. but as i said earlier, i think the huge volatility now that we have in politics means it's not impossible to come back from a disastrous result, as labour has just done from their disastrous 2019 result as well, george . 2019 result as well, george. >> yeah, i think the dynamic that's at play here, you know, quite simply is that that conservative coalition has, has fallen apart tonight. so you've got in some seats, you've got people who would regard themselves perhaps as centre ground conservatives, they, they've switched to the liberal democrats in a lot of cases. and then on the other flank , you've then on the other flank, you've got people who think the conservativ
