we will start with the daily express. vaccine hoped by september.eves it's reasonably confident of getting a million vaccines out by september whether or not they work is something still to be decided. clearly a story that deciders worth going with. yeah will give a lot of optimism and hope across the country. if you saw the press corps earlier the business secretary was somewhat stand sounding a note of caution. 0xford university both bullish and they've got 5000 volunteers, they are testing on this. say they can manufacture 8 million by september. so incredibly good news was think one of the big hearers with this pandemic is whether we can be hit with by a second surge. there's been speculation that's been happening. of speculation that's been happening. of vaccine absently vital. but i think it's fair that what you see from the government is and i could give any promise because here they are throughout this whole pandemic just going into uncharted territory. the whole time. it was interesting miatta in that news conference as giles was just sayin

jo—anne that is a business focus from the daily express.headline. with this particular call that they have taken up —— this because they're almost working on behalf of they're almost working on behalf of the consumers. and it does refer directly back to the financial crisis of 2008 and the amount of public money that was spent on propping up the banks and the idea now that quite frankly unnecessary charges, calling in loans too quickly, all of things which perhaps unscrupulous or sharp practice in banking we could see that happen and it's very important to stop that happening. because many people are really facing potential severe financial hardship, possibly their company's financial hardship, possibly their compa ny‘s folding financial hardship, possibly their company's folding under financial hardship, possibly their compa ny‘s folding under the financial hardship, possibly their company's folding under the stress of what is happening now and i think the express is absolutely right that the express is absolutely right that the banks need

the daily express calls on the banks to do their duty as payback, after being bailed out by the publicardian reports on the difficult choices facing nhs staff who may have to decide which patients get access to life—saving equipment shall we begin. let's start off with the telegraph. questions without a nswe i’s the telegraph. questions without answers and this really summarises the mood of a lot of the papers we will be looking. a picture of the business secretary and the telegraph saying why the testing strategy lags so saying why the testing strategy lags so far behind other nations. i do not know if you watch the government briefings every day but do you find you get answers? it is really interesting that the telegraph, boris johnson's interesting that the telegraph, borisjohnson‘s on interesting that the telegraph, boris johnson's on paper, interesting that the telegraph, borisjohnson‘s on paper, has taken such a strong stance on this. we took a very, very similar take in the huffington post. we ended up just listing all the questions that the government had failed to answer on te

the daily express has that story, reporting that borisjohnson returns to work to begin leading the country out of lockdown, while vowing to prevent a second wave of cases. the daily telegraph says the prime minister may ease the lockdown as early as this week. the situation in europe is the focus of the finacial times with italy, spain and france looking to ease restrictions. the front page of the times shows a picture of a runner on the mall in london where the london marathon should have finished today if it had gone ahead. the paper also has a story about an asteroid making its way towards earth. thankfully, scientists it will miss us byjust under 4 million miles. narrow escape. let us begin whilst asteroids avoid us. boris back at number ten, the metro. kate proctor, we are surviving the asteroid, back to politics. the prime ministerfor the first time in a man is at work, out of isolation, out of hospital. we have seen a picture of the back of his head going into downing street. we are expecting to see the prime minister tomorrow. i am sure number ten will be keen to put out a video cl

a writer and academic, and sam from the daily express, thank you to you both.r the papers tonight. thanks to my reviewers, sam list and maia goodfellow. next year and bbc news, the film review. good night. —— next here on it bbc news, hello and welcome to the film review with me, mark kermode. rounding of the best new releases that are not available ——rounding of the best new releases that are now available to watch in your own home. this week saw the straight—to—streaming release of trolls world tour. the sequel to the 2016 animated hit that, let us not forget, was nominated for an oscar for best original song. # woke up in the morning light. # today is the day that i do everything right...# in that originalfilm, experience i likened to sticking your head into a candy floss machine, the happy huggy trolls were terrorised by carnivorous burgens from whom they had to be saved.

and finally, the daily express in the uk reports on the remarkable story of a 99—year—old veteran whoh service — doing laps of his garden! lots to get through. welcome to you both, can we start with you, sonya, looking at the front page of the times, i don't know if you caught the press conference today from matt hancock with chris whitty. he was careful not to say peak, but it looks more promising in terms of the figures? yes, so obviously the number of deaths is still going up bya number of deaths is still going up by a very high number each day. i think it is important to say that. but the pace at which the death rate is going up has slowed. and what the message in the press conference today was that it is too early to know if there's a bit of a bank holiday effect going on, so there's more of a time lag —— time lag. so that might account for some of the slow down, but the indications are certainly good if you look at the infection rate, and it would appear that the infection rate is slowing. experts believe that the cumulative death toll will continue to go up in the days to come,

the daily express will focus on british news but is the american angle something your paper is coveringe global situation not just america. i think this ap article if people get a chance to walk on and have a look at it is really fascinating because it invokes around the world round up of the situation and also it has some. . . the situation and also it has some... it tells the tale of how many people are dying in individual countries and the global death toll which we know today is past the 100,000 mark. but it has also got the more human side of how people are coping across the world with this crisis. i thought it interesting that around the easter weekend now, a really important weekend now, a really important weekend in italy and it talks about how people are going to drive through theatres for prayer and in paris, notre dame a subject that was distressing with the fire that destroyed a big chunk of it. broadcasts being carried out from there today. i think it's an interesting perspective. and the pope has been holding services in st peter's square. we will look finally at the ft, i

the daily express calls on the banks to do their duty as payback, after being bailed out by the publich, deputy political editor at huffpost uk and political commentator and former conservative adviser, jo—anne nadler. could you not and wait to see you are receiving the? could you as well? there you are both. sometimes in the last few weeks papers have gone off in different directions but i think clearly we have seen most of them are talking about testing and almost all of them have exactly the same verdict. let's start with the times. the headline "virus testing plans and chaos" with an empty looking chesaning ten world of adventure site. hard enough to get to in the best of times but no one was able to make it there now. arj from huff post uk what are your thoughts? the reason why testing is so thoughts? the reason why testing is so important are two reasons the first of which you have a wad of nhs workers, front—line workers at home self isolated because they either have symptoms of coronavirus, livid people have symptoms of coronavirus but we do not know whether they have coronavir

the race for a vaccines also features on the front of the daily express, alongside the uk prime minister'sk — as he recovers from coronavirus. the telegraph reports that nhs workers have been given flawed virus tests. while the mirror reports that front line care workers plea for protetctive equipment as stock lies in a warehouse. and the mail reports on urgent referals that have been missed since the start of the covid—19 outbreak, saying 2,700 cancer detections are being missed each week. so, let's begin... just a flavour of those front pages. let's kick off then. katie, if you could start us with the metro, and this is actually the leading quite a few papers, but the vaccine trials on human beings starting as early as thursday. yes. this is the good news that matt hancock was trying to get across in today's daily press conference from the government. and thatis conference from the government. and that is the uk is looking at vaccines, not only funding, but we heard the end of last week about the extra funds the government is putting into trying to find a vaccine internationally, but, sp

let's move on to daily express.to bring you and, the headline talking about priti patel warning again selfish rule breakers. it seems a little bit that this whole lockdown fatigue is starting to take over a little bit in the uk, the hot weather is not helping. do you think people who are breaking the rules right now i thinking along the lines of the numbers are diminishing and i can do what i want? i am not so sure it is ican do what i want? i am not so sure it is i can do what i want but i think people are hearing in the daily press briefings talking of the spread rate being below one which keeps being reiterated and the rhetoric about the sombrero having been squashed and people are likely thinking that we had this under control and without a plan in place or how lockdown might be eased, it is little wonder they are starting to think that might take things into their own hands and disillusion with their own hands and disillusion with the government is increasing over it. the approval rating i think has fallen six

we will have to move on, martin brown from the daily express.take you back to your opening remarks when you said our plan is working. inaudible. but we have seen so far that testing has been slow and the government is to frantically trying to get ventilators, front line nhs staff are still struggling to get hold of ppe, and some experts are predicting britain will have the worst death rate from coronavirus in europe. was this all part of the plan? and to sir patrick and professor chris whitty, what specific evidence are you looking for, the scientific evidence you are looking for to reopen schools, and do you think it will be wise that the uk follows the european example and opens schools so soon after the supposed peak? the two crucial things that we have always argued, flattening the peak and making sure the nhs can cope, is on the one hand getting people to follow guidelines on social distancing. they have shown the forbearance and sacrifice that has allowed us to deliver on that. it has been a national effort. a lot of people, when you think
