gary lineker is now the bbc‘s highest—paid star on £1.7 million.ecause she, like many actors and presenters, are either paid by an independent firm, or the bbc‘s private production arm. which explains why bbc names such as david attenborough and david dimbleby don't appear. and amongst viewers in cardiff, there was another concern. i just think it's far too much that they are paid, far too much for the little bit they do. if you trust what they say and they know what they say, then it's worth paying them the money to do the job. who is worth that sort of money? they are not saving lives. so some progress on the gender gap but the bbc women campaigning for equal pay say there is still a long way to go. david sillito, bbc news. police in wiltshire say they've begun speaking to charlie rowley — one of the victims of the novichok poisoning who's regained consciousness and is no longer in a critical condition. officers say they spoke briefly to him in salisbury district hospital. over 100 counter—terrorism detectives are trying to establish the source o

i watched the game with alan shearer and gary lineker. and rio ferdinand and gary lineker.ion for us, we don't want to make mistakes, we would've loved to commentate on injured in a final. but we move forward and we have a wonderful final in the shape of france and now croatia. we wish them well. that is the thing about english, a lot of dignity. croatia we re english, a lot of dignity. croatia were better, but we had a chance to beat them. thank you, martin. i'm sure many fans watching this dreaming about what might have happened. gareth southgate has done what many people tried, united a quite troubled nation back at home and put a smile on people's faces and put a smile on people's faces and the team have done england proud. gareth southgate, my admiration for him grows every day. let's hope we can learn from this and it is a springboard for him to move forward to the next european championships. maybe we could win that. we need to think about challenging in these major competitions. we will let you go and have an actual breakfast now, thank you for being on breakfast. l

you can watch the build—up from two o'clock on bbc one with gary lineker and the team in moscow.the world cup was obviously 1966. if you multiply one by one and you multiply that by the square of nine and multiply that by the square of six and multiply that by the square of the other six and divide that by 52, which is the number of years since england last one the world cup, you come out with 2000 and 18.7, seven being the month ofjuly, so it had to happen! i didn't follow that quite closely, but i love that. also, man city won the league. burnley qualified for europe the last time all that happened. there are some stats doing around on that as well. i am the most pessimistic football fan. i am going for 2—2, england through on penalties again. so, kyle edmund has a dilemma. will he be allowed to watch the game before he comes out on centre court because he has a swedish coach? or will it be a distraction if england go through on penalties? how will he prepare to face novak djokovic? it could be going on at the same time. the british number one's playing in his first ever third

the match of the day presenter gary lineker has overtaken chris evans as the best—paid person on theuse they work for bbc studios which has been classed as a commercial entity since last year, as our correspondent david sillito explains. it's been a year of protest and lobbying, for many of the women presenters. they were outraged when the bbc was forced to come clean about its pay deals and revealed just how much more its top male stars were earning. 12 months on, they have not revealed that the £700,000 dropped by rounded third, john humphrey's publicly reported salary is falling around £600,000 to £a0,000, and the number of women being paid over £200,000 is doubled. last year men outnumbered women on this list, three to one. when told that the situation is closer to 60 — a0 and the goals make it 50—50 with them next year or so. but the highest—paid stars are all men. these things take time, especially when you're dealing with people who are the voices and faces of the bbc to millions of people. these things ta ke to millions of people. these things take time. but we have to also a

gary lineker is the bbc‘s highest paid star, earning more than £1.7 million a year.the overall distribution of people on this list, from 75% being male, 25% female, this year to 60-40. at the being male, 25% female, this year to 60—40. at the very top of the list there are a glaring in domination by women. the top 12 are all men, within the top 1520, there are only two women, and there is a feeling that the bbc that despite making some progress, on the overall balance of this list, there is not a huge amount of progress at the very summit of it. this is in the context of the bbc reducing its gender pay gap across the whole of the organisation by about 9%. the bbc feels it is slow progress but the issue with the list this year it is a very compensated and quite confusing for people because last year buzz macalister included lots of people paid by bbc studios. bbc studios is an arm of the bbc, and this year all the bbc studios figures have been taken off, so we have a figure for claudia winkleman what she gets from the bbc but is does not include what she gets from bbc

obviously, when the first colombian penalty was missed, i am not going to lie to you, i was a bit like gary lineker more so when pickford made that incredible save. and then when england won, everybody jumping around, i wasjust a bit overwhelmed but excited and one of my glasses lenses fell out! i only realised that afterwards when i tried to put them on, i only had one lens, the glasses were broken, there was beer everywhere! and you lost your voice as well, it sounds like?! yeah, lost my voice...? well, dey did have a fairly late night, i couldn't sleep, i was watching the highlights until about half past one in the morning. it was like a soap opera, as it always has been watching england as a supporter. but it turned out the right way for once! but it was condensed into 120 minutes, this soap opera. over many yea rs, minutes, this soap opera. over many years, anyone who has watched england, and can there be a more poetic story than the manager of england probably missing their best chance in 1996 to win a major tournament because frankly germany and england were the best sides in 96, and then 22

former england striker alan shearer watched the game against sweden with fellow pundits gary lineker. dan, is the excitement still at fever pitch? how are you doing? we are doing all right, i can tell you that alan shearer is still singing this morning, still enjoying himself, as are all england fans, both in moscow and back in england, so many desperate to get tickets, i have got about 20 asking me whether i can get them for the semifinal. as has martin keown, who did coke on that incredible quarterfinal. —— commentary. what was incredible was that it did not have the drama you expect with england, it was quite steady. we manage the game so well, everyone looked ready for the occasion, the goalkeeper was outstanding, so many heroes, the manager has that calmness, he is so stable, sharing the journey with all the players, he sees it before it happens, and it was a very comfortable afternoon and evening, and we were really enjoying it, for sure it can'tjust be gareth southgate, can it? you have been involved with these teams before, we talk about a golden generation that has not deliv
