The american Actress Rose Mcgowan became the latest woman to make accusations of rape. She says she repeatedly told the boss of amazon studios, who worked with weinstein, what had happened but hed done nothing about it. Mr weinstein denies the allegations. On saturday, the organisers of the oscars will hold emergency talks amid speculation it could suspending talks amid speculation it could suspend Harvey Weinsteins membership. Nick bryant reports. Harvey weinsteins star has plummeted, brought down by some of the biggest female names in the movie industry who have accused him of harassment, and worse. Actress rose mcgowan has said she was raped by the Film Producer in the growing scandal now affecting one of the worlds biggest companies, amazon. In a series of tweets to the companys chief executive, mcgowan said the amazon head of studio in question, roy price, is facing an accusation from a female producer that he lewdly propositioned her in 2015. In a statement, amazon said in new york today, one of americas big banks, goldman sachs, said it was considering options for its stake in the Weinstein Company, whose headquarters is not far from wall street. On sunday, the company sacked its co founder. The weinstein name has long been a hallmark of quality in the Entertainment Industry but in the past week, it has been trashed. Creative partners are trying to pull out of projects with what is left of the Weinstein Company. It has been likened to a run on a bank. The oscar winning director oliver stone initially said that weinstein should not be judged prematurely. If he broke the law, it will come out, there will be a trial, and i believe a man should not be condemned by a vigilante system. But later in a post on facebook, he said after looking at what has been reported in many publications over the past couple of days, im appalled and commend the courage of the women who have stepped forward. Ill therefore recuse myself from the guantanamo series as long as the Weinstein Company is involved. Long time politicalfriends are now distancing themselves from this big dollar democrat fundraiser, too Hillary Clinton here speaking with the bbcs andrew marr. It was just disgusting and the stories that have come out are heartbreaking, and i really commend the women who have been willing to step forward now and tell their stories but i think its important that we notjust focus on him and whatever consequences flow from these stories about his behaviour but that we recognise this kind of behaviour cannot be tolerated anywhere. The show must go on is the motto of the Entertainment Industry. It was lights, camera, action at this movie premiere in new york last night but many women, like the british actress carey mulligan, hope this will be a watershed moment in what is still a male dominated business. It starts with women having opportunities behind the camera and then in front of the camera and in the boardroom and it all comes down to money, so think its about the industry catching up with the idea that you can put a woman in a female role and make a fortune. Harvey weinstein has denied any allegations of non consensual sex. He is now believed to be in a rehab clinic in arizona. Since news of the scandal broke a week ago, more people have been speaking out about the culture in the Entertainment Industry. A number of actors have said Sexual Harassment is rife and exploitation is the price for being part of the industry. From hollywood, laura bicker reports. The conversation on the red carpets of hollywood has changed. Tough questions are being asked about the culture of this industry. And yet, some are still unwilling to come up with answers. This is what happened when i asked about Harvey Weinstein at this film premiere. In the aftermath of this, how does hollywood heal . Were going to pass on that one. Youve been in this industry a long time. Yeah, were going to pass on that one. Come on, this way. But thank you so much. The start of the picture, renee zellweger, worked with Harvey Weinstein. Im told my microphone is not allowed near her. You guys need to you guys need to move back, please. Like, way back. It worries hollywoods newest recruits, warming up ahead of their big scene. Some of those starting in their career fear exploitation has become the price they have to pay for being part of the industry. Ifeel like music and movies is all about who you know and what youre willing to do. Just listen to what goes through the mind of this young actress before an audition. Before you even step into the room, am i the right look . Are they going to like me because of this . I dont have that. But what if they ask me to do that . I cant do that. Ok, maybe i shouldnt go. It sounds crazy, but that is literally the conversation that goes on in your head. Does it not depress you . Yeah, its terrible its horrible ijust i feel like thats the way it is and theres nothing i can do about it. The Organisation Women in film has set up a hotline to allow victims to report abuse and, potentially, take their cases to court. You know, the idea in hollywood which has become so customary, that if youre uncomfortable in a situation lets say youre a woman, and you speak up and say this situations uncomfortable, youre basically asked to leave. Youre normally given money. And then you sign some kind of a nda or confidentiality agreement ora quick claim. What i get angry about is the system that lets them believe that they deserve to be treated this way. This systemic sexism in show business may come as no surprise to people here. But there is a hope it may act as some kind of tipping point, that the industry can now reform itself from within. Thatll mean more women taking up powerful positions behind the scenes. That may be the only way that this casting couch culture will change. Hollywood is being forced to look at itself from a new angle and it might not like what it sees. Lets take a look at some of the other stories making the news. The pentagon says a saudi man who is being held at Guantanamo Bay has been sentenced to 13 years in prison on terrorism charges. The sentencing of Ahmed MohammedAhmed Haza Al Darbi comes after his guilty plea in february 2014 for his role in an attack on a french oil tanker off the coast of yemen. South Africas Supreme Court of appeal has upheld a High Court Decision to reinstate hundreds of corruption charges against the countrys president , jacob zuma. The allegations relate to a government arms deal signed in 1999, when he was deputy president. Mr zuma has repeatedly rejected the claims against him. The president of the european commission, jean claude juncker, has insisted the uk must meet its financial commitments to the eu before brexit talks move on to future trade relations. Mrjuncker stressed that he was not in a revenge mood but britain would, as he put it, have to pay. Downing street said britain would honour its commitments. President trump has threatened to end us participation in an International Nuclear deal with iran, but has stopped short of pulling out immediately, instead handing the issue to congress. Iran says mr trump had made false accusations and appeared not to understand that the nuclear deal was Multi Lateral which meant the us was not permitted to alter it. Earlier i spoke with Jarrett Blanc whos a senior fellow at the Carnegie Endowment for international peace. He was previously the state Department Co ordinator for the Iran Nuclear Deal implementation under president obama. Has President Trump essentially killed the Iran Nuclear Deal . No, not yet. President trump has opened up a 60 day window for congress to resume the sanctions that were lifted under the jcpra, under expedited procedures. If they dont do that and he doesnt return the sanctions himself, and the us continues to comply. But wont President Trump then unilaterally yank the us out of the deal . That is certainly the threat. And we can only hope that the same combination of european advocacy and quite frankly reason, which carried a day at least in part today, will continue to can carry the day and keep the us in line with its obligations. It is confusing is that the iranian president has said that the iranian president has said that the us cant change the nuclear deal. The eu Foreign Policy chief has said that no president can terminate the deal. And yet people are saying that this is a risk, that if President Trump will the us out thatis if President Trump will the us out that is the end of the deal. Pulls the us out. There are two questions. President trump has suggested that working with congress, he can change the terms of the deal. I think that is false. The deal is what it is, iran has agreed to strict limitations and an invasive inspection regime, asking them to do more unilaterally will fail. It is possible for the us to stop complying with its commitments under the deal. While that doesnt automatically and the deal for the other participants, it very likely start to spiral whereby iran stops getting the benefits that it needs and expects, and you end up without and expects, and you end up without a deal. What happens if the us creates more, fresh sanctions against iran, how might iran react . It depends very much on what the nature of the sanctions are. The United States under the terms of the jcpra is committed committed to sanction iran for issues outside the nuclear files. But back in sanction iran for issues outside the nuclearfiles. But back in permitted. All of these other areas where there are sanctions, and if we find new reasons for sanctions that is ok. If we were to reimpose any of the sanctions that were lifted under the sanctions that were lifted under thejcpra, the sanctions that were lifted under the jcpra, iran would the sanctions that were lifted under thejcpra, iran would correctly say that we are out of compliance and that we are out of compliance and that would presumably call their compliance with their obligations into doubt. And you can find more on the deal with iran on our website. Just go to bbc. Com news, or download the bbc news app. Youll also find analysis of the part the us congress will now play in the process. Madagascar is facing its worst plague outbreak for years. 57 people have died and the number of cases has doubled over the last week, with another confirmed case in the seychelles. Madagascar has suffered plague outbreaks almost every year since 1980, often caused by rats fleeing forest fires. But the emergence of the pneumonic form of plague which affects the lungs and is transmitted through coughing, has raised serious concerns. Sarah corker reports. Madagascar accounts for most of the worlds plague cases. Outbreaks are common on this island nation in the indian ocean. Caught early, it is treatable. Millions of doses of antibiotics arrived this week, as well as rat traps. But this years outbreak is different. Both bubonic plague, spread by flea bites and rats, and the more dangerous pneumonic type, spread person to person and which can be fatal in 2a hours, have hit towns and cities. This situation is quite concerning. Cases have doubled over the last week. Over three quarters of the cases reported are the pneumonic type. The transmition of which is from one person to the next through coughing and respiratory transmission. Since the outbreak started in august, these have been the statistics. The first case of pneumonic plague has been confirmed in the seychelles according to local media. A 34 year old man who fell ill after returning from madagascar on friday has tested positive. Earlier this week, madagascars president warned people not to panic, but that the situation was serious. Translation were in a war, its like war. Today i believe we have the weapons and ammunition is to fight today i believe we have the weapons and ammunitions to fight this epidemic. The World Health Organization says the risk of the disease spreading internationally was low. In madagascar, entire neighbourhoods are being sprayed with disinfectant, but there are rubbish dumps and open sewers which are causing problems. Stay with us on bbc news, still to come the angler who kissed his cat and swallowed it whole thinks the fishermen who saved his life. Catch. Parts of San Francisco least affected by the earthquake are returning to life. But in the marina area, where most of the damage was done, theyre more conscious than ever of how much has been destroyed. In the 19 years since he was last here, hes gone from being a little known revolutionary to an experienced and successful diplomatic operator. It was a 20 pound bomb which exploded on the fifth floor of the grand hotel, ripping a hole in the front of the building. This government will not weaken. Democracy will prevail. It fills me with humility and gratitude to know that i have been chosen as the recipient of this foremost of earthly honours. This catholic nation held its breath for the men they call the 33. And then. Bells toll bells tolled nationwide to announce the first rescue and chile let out an almighty roar. This is bbc news. The latest headlines rose mcgowan is the latest actress to claim president you get blacklisted and you cant work in that industry anymore. So the problem is that its an employment problem and yes, we need to get more women into that industry. I think if we could figure out some way to create gender parity behind the scenes and on the screen, these kinds of Sexual Harassments wouldnt be happening so often. But if it is a culture issue, then is that enough to get women in powerful positions . You might still have this issue that you describe of reciprocity, so theres still other forms of exploitation that can happen. Well, i think the really important thing to recognise here is that the fact that it is happening in the Film Industry is significant. Im getting an echo here for some reason. Because hollywood is the Propaganda Machine for one of the most powerful nations in the world and it helps form our cultural narrative and add to the voice of our civilisation. And yet, the people who are making the media content that comes out of hollywood are people like Harvey Weinstein and Harvey Weinstein isntjust, you know, he isnt the only one. It is rife in this industry. They are all Harvey Weinsteins. Well, not all of them. But its full of Harvey Weinsteins. We saw earlier that there is a lot of fear from movie stars about speaking out. Is this a watershed moment . Did you think things are going to change from now on . I think this is a watershed moment. Im very excited because, well, first of all, i counted up Harvey Weinsteins movies over the course of the past 35 years. He made 294 movies and 285 of them were directed by men only nine of them were directed by women. So when we if we look at the Sexual Harassment problem, actually, as an employment problem, and that, you know, women have a hard time getting jobs, they have to trade favours to get jobs, you know, then we can see that we need some kind of serious federal oversight and the problem in hollywood is fundamentally that it is like the wild west and it is almost completely unregulated. And equal Employment Opportunity laws are not they are not enforced by our federal government. So what we need to do is to not look inside the industry to solve their own problem we need to figure out how we can create legislation that will solve this problem. Come up some, you know, you know, a much more powerful oversight body that will make sure that women are getting, have, enjoying equal opportunity laws and that they are getting hired at parity, is what should be happening, and then these Sexual Harassment problems wont happen.

Firefighters in Northern California are facing dry and windy conditions for yet another day as they try to contain more than 17 blazes ripping through the region. At least 36 people have died and hundreds more are still missing, making these the most lethal wildfires in the States History. Large parts of Northern California, including sonoma and napa counties, and the city of santa rosa, have been the worst hit. Dave lee has the latest. Sir, youve got to go this breathtaking footage was a Police Officers view on sunday. He was in the city of santa rosa, helping terrified residents evacuate. The next day, the city looks like this. These fires have choked california, displacing 90,000 people and destroying more than 5,000 buildings. It is burning an area thats almost the size of new york city. As some areas reopen after being deemed safe, other parts of this region are being told to get ready to get out quickly. There is some Good Progress being made, however some of the biggest fires are showing signs of being contained, thanks to the efforts of more than 8,000 firefighters drafted in to help. Some have come from as far as australia to offer expertise. But with the weekend upon them, these firefighters are bracing themselves. Weather forecasts suggest more high winds are on the way. Making good, a lot better progress today, in hopes of we told the guys get the boots on the ground, do hard work today so that way, by this afternoon or this evening when that wind comes up, hopefully well be in a better position. In areas where the fire has already been and gone, police are also having to deal with looters seeking to capitalise on block after block of empty homes. Ive been out in some of these terrible areas where people are at the point where theyre putting signs on their doors saying theres nothing here, please dont loot. So if anyone thinks they are going to get away with it, i think my Law Enforcement partners will agree with me that thats not going to happen in sonoma county. The smoky air can be smelt as far as 100 miles away. In nearby San Francisco, air quality has been measured as the poorest on record worse than beijing. The strongest theory as to what may have caused this fire points to fallen powerlines. The states power company, pg e, said decades of drought in california meant a weak tree may have collapsed into its equipment, but said it was important to wait for a full investigation before drawing any conclusions. People here are praying for the best but are braced for the worst. This is already the deadliest wildfire in the States History and it isnt over yet. Dave lee, bbc news, california. Thousands of adelie penguin chicks have starved to death, 18 us states say they will take the Trump Administration to court over its plans to stop paying subsidies to Health Insurance companies under obamacare. The to Health Insurance companies under obamaca re. The white to Health Insurance companies under obamacare. The white house says it has been advised the subsidies are illegal, but the states say the move will lead to higher premiums. As the trumps attempts to repeal Barack Obamas signature legislation have faced opposition in congress, including some within his own party. From some. Thousands of adelie penguin chicks have starved to death, leaving just two survivors in a colony of nearly 40,000 in antarctica. Sea ice late in the summer forced adult penguins to travel further for food, with the chicks dying as they waited. The scientists called it a catastrophe. Now, for every fisherman there is a story of the one that got away, but this time its a tale of getting too close for comfort. A man was kissing a dover sole in celebration of the catch, when the six inch fish wriggled out of his hand and jumped into his mouth. He stopped breathing before being saved by paramedics. Chi chi izundu reports. Thankfully, this fish is larger than the one sam ouilliam caught. At 1a centimetres, his friends had jokingly referred to his catch that night as a postage stamp. Thats it, hes smiling now size didnt matter. Sam still wanted to kiss his dover sole with pride. But the fish wasnt actually up for that kiss. It wriggled free and jumped straight down sams throat, completely blocking his airway. Just a bit shaken up by it all, really. You just dont expect it to happen. I mean, people do things like this all the time. And you just dont expect it to happen to you. His friends noticed his panic and started to give him cpr. I turned my back, before i knew it, he was choking. He got halfway down the pier here, and collapsed. By that point, i was already on the phone to the emergency services. Thankfully, paramedics were just finishing another job around the corner before they got the call. After 17 years of doing this job, ive never seen anything like it. Ive never seen a foreign body quite as much yeah, quite like that. With small forceps, it took six attempts to get the fish out, which did actually come out whole. Once they got sams heart going again, he was rushed to hospital. But hes not the only fisherman that could be caught in this danger. Apparently, there is a tradition amongst fishermen. When they get their catch, they give it a quick kiss before they throw it back in the sea. Sam says that this whole incident has not actually put him off, and he will be here soon on this pier, with his friends, fishing, as soon as he gets the sign off from doctors. So, will sam be kissing his catch any time soon . Probably, yeah. Just a little bigger, and not a sole. Dont forget, you can get in touch with me and some of the team on twitter. Im at bbcregedahmad. There is much more coming up on bbc world news. Let three cap on about top stories, the scandal surrounding hollywood Harvey Weinstein, which has deepened after Actress Rose Mcgowan publicly accused him of raping her. Hollywood producer harvey when steam. Weinstein. Hi there. Were going to look at the satellite picture, first of all, because we have quite a typical autumnal setup, really. Cool north westerly winds working across the atlantic meeting milder southerly winds, a weather front in between. What of course is not normal is this hurricane ophelia, a category 2 hurricane, near the azores, with winds gusting to 120 miles an hour. That will be affecting our weather early next week. But for the time being, we have these warm winds wafting their way across the british isles, dragging out that warm air for the time of year. So, over the next days, we could see temperatures go as high as 2a degrees, if we get some sunny spells. These temperatures, by the way, pretty good, actually, for late july. Except its not late july, its october. And those temperatures are really quite incredible for the time of year. Now, its a mild start to the day everywhere with temperatures into double figures. Weve got some rain around, though, northern ireland, into north west england, and south west scotland, as well, seeing that wet weather. Look at these temperatures 16 degrees as we start the day. Thats where temperatures should peak at this time of year. As we go through the day, this band of rain will slowly push its way northwards, whilst easing. The cloud across england and wales, while quite low at times across wales and south west england, with some hill fog patches in the morning, but the cloud will tend to shrink as we go on through the afternoon, to allow some bright spells through. In the best of the sunshine, i think temperatures could get to 22, maybe 23 degrees celsius towards Eastern England during saturday afternoon. Overnight, rain turns heavier for a time across northern ireland, but more especially in western scotland, where it will be a wet old night. Another mild night, saturday night, these are the kind of minimum temperatures, 13, 1a degrees, Something Like that. Now, for sunday, theres a better chance that we will see more in the way of cloud breaks across england and wales. Youll notice, though, the rain in northern scotland. When the rain sticks, it could do across western scotland, through the day, it will not feel especially warm. Temperatures here into the teens. But when we see the sunshine coming out, we could see highs of 23 or 2a degrees celsius. So it will be a very warm day for late october indeed. Beyond that, we have to look again at the azores. This is hurricane ophelia. This is be working in a north eastward direction. Probably got another 2a hours as a hurricane before it turns into a normal area of low pressure. Please bear in mind that the track of this low pressure could change, but nevertheless, youll notice that weve got some very strong winds coming our way through monday and tuesday as well. Firmly in the firing line is ireland. Northern ireland and scotland could also be impacted. The winds may well be damaging. But bear in mind the track could change, so the strong winds could affect other areas of uk, as well. And thats your weather. This is bbc news, the headlines the list of allegations about Harvey Weinstein continues to grow. Rose mcgowan is the latest actor to claim she was raped by the hollywood producer.

He said he wouldnt cancel the agreement immediately, but instead was decertifying it. The move has prompted condemnation from the other International Powers that signed it. The worst wildfires in californias history have left at least 36 people dead and hundreds missing. Firefighters are facing dry and windy conditions for yet another day as they try to contain more than 17 blazes ripping through the region. Coming up at 6 00, breakfast with Charlie Stayt and naga munchetty, but first on bbc news, the travel show
