hello and welcome to our look ahead to what the the papers will be bringing us tomorrow. with me are arejessica elgot, deputy political editor of the guardian — and katy balls, deputy political editor of the spectator. welcome back. let's look at what is in. the metro, which headlines prince philip leaving hospital after 28 days to be reunited with the queen at windsor. an exclusive in the huffington post — which says the foreign secretary told officials that britain would seek trade deals with countries that have breached international human rights standards. the financial times follows up on that story — which it says have led to accusations from some tory mps that borisjohnson is going soft on china. the vaccine chaos in europe is the top story in the telegraph — with brussels blaming eu governments of stockpiling jabs. the guardian headlines the growing pressure on borisjohnson to launch a public inquiry into britain's handling of covid—19. and the mail leads with the continuing drama within the royal family — after harry and meghan revealed details of private family conversations to a journalist friend. that friend then splurged them all out on american tv. rights, welcome back to you both. should we start again with the telegraph, the astrazeneca roll—out, the european medicines agency saying it is safe. most leaders accepting it is safe. most leaders accepting it is safe. most leaders accepting it is safe, but an abundance of caution or what, do you think what you leaders are notjust lifting the suspension straightaway? it is you leaders are

caution, than - suspension straightaway? it is an abundance of caution, than i - suspension straightaway? it is an| abundance of caution, than i think part of the problem here is beyond a caution risk analysis of the number of blood clots compared to how lethal we know coronavirus can be. i do think it seems to be a misunderstanding in a way that the principle of being cautious here, because there is a risk to not giving adults the job, particularly come as you say, because we have some anybody�*s comments notjust the nhra, you also have the world health organization under others think of the vaccine is safe to use, there is nothing to particularly worry about compared to this vaccine in others when it comes to blood clots. they don't think there's anything abnormal here. i think that means that they are saying, welcome is this political? and he think the problem with you in their handling of this is that you look at their history with the astrazeneca vaccine, and it is incomparable to how they treated the pfizer vaccine or others. you know come at one point, we were hearing from emmanuel macron, that the oxford vaccine was ineffective, he then wrote back on that, but the whole way through, it has been reluctant by that you to embrace this vaccine from and i think that's why the recent turn of events, most people are saying they are not taking it at face value, they are not sure this is true. haw they are not sure this is true. how olitical, they are not sure this is true. how political. is _ they are not sure this is true. how political, is it. — they are not sure this is true. how political, is it, jessica? _ they are not sure this is true. how political, is it, jessica? that fits in with the vaccine scepticism that we know exists probably in greater numbers like countries like france than here? it’s numbers like countries like france than here? 3 ., numbers like countries like france than here? �*, . ., , numbers like countries like france than

than here? it's a really dangerous game to cast doubts about - than here? it's a really dangerous game to cast doubts about this i game to cast doubts about this vaccine from even though you know, these are legitimate things that regulators want to look into, but they have not recommended causing they have not recommended causing the programme. in france, particularly, you mentioned, yes, i saw some really, really scary pulling figures about how many people distrusted the job now. i think that's the most vaccine hesitant country in the world, and emmanuel macron hasn't really helped out with the commons that katie highlighted. clearly, politicians here going to be worried about what its effects might be here. written has had a huge take—up of the vaccine, and there was a lot of talk about anti—vaccine sentiments ahead of the roll—outs, which doesn't seem to have materialised it all, but matt hancock have to come up tonight and say you know, it was a world—class regulator who had assessed this jab here in britain and saying that's, you know, there was a real world impact that can be evaluated right here because 11 million people have had the vaccine here, and so that's a pretty sizeable amount to see whether things would be going wrong. it things would be going wrong. it can'tjust be missteps each way, kennett? ursula bonder line from emmanuel macron, angela merkel, others, they have all delivered some pretty loaded statements about this vaccine, and to perhaps not get the data right or misinterpreted the data right or misinterpreted the data according to one german newspaper, which would produce some pretty alarming shocking headlines. you are right. if you go back the hands _ you are right. if you go back the hands of— you are right. if you go back the

this over here, both of your spring chickens, i am having myjob tomorrow, but even a lot of my friends are saying to me, are you really sure, and now we have got quite a senior medic, haven't we, within the british establishment talking about the influence this is potentially going to have over here, and as you get down the demographic, more younger people perhaps picking up more younger people perhaps picking up on these stories think, well, am i going to risk a? about another 40-50 i going to risk a? about another 40—50 years of life in become endemic in some terrible side effects.

have been trying to seek reassurance that the japanese seat. and that is kind of understandable from the headlines that you have been seen, particularly if you are in a high risk group and you see those headlines from across europe, but so far, i think the political leaders here aren't as worried about it as they thought they would be. they thought they might have to, you know, some kind of incentive scheme to get young people to have the jab, so i think in israel you saw people being offered free pizza with your jab. people seem so keen to get it here that they don't think that there's going to be that problem, but you know, you never know how the public mood can change, and that is something that the ministers are going to really want to keep a close eye on. 50 going to really want

american tv host who relays what the american tv host who relays what the couple have done over the weekend, they have spoke into prince william, they have spoken to prince charles, and it says that talks were unproductive. i mean that's the sort of link what you might expect to hearin of link what you might expect to hear in negotiations between the us and north korea rather than between people who are supposed to be in the same family, and i think that it does show that it's really telling that they are having to use this kind of very cold language to describe peace negotiations when it is ultimately about relationships inside a family.— is ultimately about relationships inside a family. number ten won't let inside a family. number ten won't get involved. _ inside a family. number ten

some of this language in _ skirt around human rights. some of this language in this _ skirt around human rights. some of this language in this leaked - this language in this leaked recording that buffington post i've got is a great story has dominic raab saying i squarely believe we ought to be trading liberally around the worlds, and then he goes on to say that it should be restricted to certain levels of european standards of human rights. we are knocking to do many trade deals with gross markets of the future if we stick to those standards. and that is something that is particularly likely to rile some conservative backbenchers who have been very outspoken on china, particularly issues around the president and the treatment of uighur muslims and on hong kong as well in the crackdown on pro—democracy protesters there. they want to see the uk use its trade have to in order to make a point on those issues, and dominic raab basically sending a message here that that is not necessarily how the uk views it. you know, they will say that there are very stringent measures in place that the uk has acted and been very tough on china, but even borisjohnson set himself in the house of commons today that he doesn't believe that should be a new cold war. we should sequester our economy from china, and therefore, you know, they clearly want to tread the middle ground. is

saudi arabia, despite everything that's happened there, the killing of jamaal khashoggi, saudi arabia is just too important to ignore. sorry, jessica. sorry, i think that there are different arguments, actually, probably to be made around saudi arabia taking from the us wherejoe biden is taking a much tougher line particularly after the conclusion of that investigation into the killing of jamaal that investigation into the killing ofjamaal khashoggi. the uk is taking a different line continuing and also cutting aid to yemen and another big intention to point on the conservative of the whole international feldman sector. theresa may particularly seemed to really embrace saudi trade during her time in office as a kind of big post—brexit trade opportunity, but again, if we were to do that, that would likely cause some tensions with the us. so i think saudi in a way is a difficult but different problem to china.

fascinating, actually quite terrifying. it says that the uk is potentially prepared to launch a new nuclear weapon if the country is faced with something like an exceptionally destructive cyber attack and their use of other kind of emerging technologies which is a massive change from the current uk policy which is basically that it can be launched only as a kind of retaliation for another nuclear

indeed for taking us through that second look at the papers. i'm tulson tollet, and this is your sports news where we start with the footballing news that manchester city are through to the champions league quarterfinals after a 4—0 aggregate win over borussia moencoengladbach. city were 2—0 up from the first leg of their last 16 tie and kevin de bruyne all but sealed the result with this thunderous left footed strike 12 minutes in just before half time ilkay gundogan doubled their lead on the night after phil foden's neat through ball. 13 time winners, real madrid join them after a 4—1 aggregate win over atalanta with the draw for the last eight and the semi—finals to be made on friday. to the championship now where there was a crucial game for swansea knowing a win would have taken them second in the table — but bournemouth came out on top. phillip billing with the opening goal afterjust 9 minutes with a wonderful kick where he contorted his body, joel latibeaudiere scored an own goal for the visitors just before half—time — and then late on arn—owt danjuma got the third for the cherries for a 3—0 win at the vitality stadium. in the night's other action, watford beat rotherham 4—1 to stay second in the table. derby county came from 2—0 down to draw 2—2 with brentford while there were wins for middlesbrough and luton with cardiff and stoke ending in a goalless draw. england's cricketers are back on top in their 20 20 series against india. it was largely down to a ruthless display from jos buttler — who hit 83 and stole the headlines from india's virat kohli. unlike the first two matches in the series, today's game was played behind closed doors due to a spike of coronavirus cases in gujarat. patrick geary reports. and then they disappeared — there was a 60,000 here on sunday, now there were none. things change fast on planet pandemic. albeit not as fast as mark wood. in cricket shortest form, it helps to be quick early for us at the captain said run so he ran. but the boss is not always right. he felt guilty, but this is a good apology, after only 77 runs, only england were sorry. the target 157, beyond what they like but that is not accounted for the remarkable reach ofjoss butler, chasing is easy when you can fly. this has been finishing first and there will be no reversing that logic here. in this mood, butler looks indescribable. too late to apologise this time and a series that will finish in front of no one is led by england 2—1 patrick gearey, bbc news. to cheltenham where history was made on day one in the feature race of the day, the champion hurdle, rachel blackmore becoming the first female jockey to win the race. it would have been a day for the fans to savour, none though on the course this year, as blackmore came home on the 11—10 favourite honeysuckle, well ahead of the field to give trainer henry de bromhead victory. sharjah was second at 11 to one, epatante came third. but blackmore the story of the day, what is national hunt racing's most prestigious meeting of the year. i am speechless, to be honest. she isjust so incredible. ijust cannot believe we won a champion hurdle. this was never even a dream, it was so far from what i ever thought could happen in my life to be in cheltenham riding the winner of eight champion hurdle, it is so far removed from anything i thought could be possible. so maybe there is a lesson in that for everyone out there but it is incredible. manchester united women are set to play their first ever match at old trafford. next week's wsl clash with west ham united will be played at the theatre of dreams, in a historic step for the club. casey stoney�*s side will take advantage of a gap in the schedule at old trafford with the match moved from leigh sports village. stoney called it a fantastic opportunity to showcase the women's game and a special moment in the history of her team. british number one dan evans has been knocked out in the second round of the dubai tennis championships. he lost in three sets to rising star aslan karatsev. evans is ranked 28th in the world — that's11l places higher than the russian, who was a surprise semi—finalist at last month's australian open. world rugby have announced a new women's international tournament, to start in 2023. it will be called wxv, and the aim is to increase competitiveness, in the build—up to an expanded world cup two years later. as six nations champions, england would be in the top of three tiers, along with the next two sides in the table, plus qualifiers from the southern hemisphere and north america. world rugby have invested 6.4—million pounds to cover the first two years of the tournament, which will involve 16 teams. great britain and ireland finished level in their three match hockey series, after the final game finished all—square at 1—1 in belfast. the series is being used as a warm—up ahead of the olympics this summer. ireland took the lead through roisin upton and it was only four minutes from time that gb managed to draw level. izzy petter with the equaliser. the teams will meet again at the olympics in tokyo. to cycling and the final stage of the tirreno adriatico was won by wout van aert with taday pogarchar taking the overall race victory. van aert came home in front at the end of the ten kilometre time trial in san benedetto del tronto — but there was no stopping the tour de france champion pogarchar who beat van aert by one minute and three seconds to take the race winner's blue jersey. and that's all the sport for now. fo everything else, head to bbc sports website. hello there. tuesday brought some glorious spring sunshine to all parts of the uk, and in scotland, a "wish you were here" kind of moment. look at this stunning weather watcher picture from the highlands. it was scotland's warmest day of the year so far. temperatures reached 15 degrees celsius in edinburgh. wasn't the warmest place in the uk, though — there were a number of spots that got to 17. amongst them was cardiff, and that was wales's warmest day of the year so far as well. now on the satellite picture you can see how that cloud did melt away. had to be patient, though, across east anglia and south—east england, the sunshine arriving pretty late on. and to the north—west of the country, we've got some thicker cloud on the way. a warm front here is going to be spreading some cloudier weather in here as we go into wednesday morning. so cloudy weather pushing into the north—west of scotland, probably with some little bits of rain and drizzle mixed in, particularly coast and hills. showers will dive southwards across from the north sea to affect parts of eastern england at times, and the north sea is at its coldest at this time of the year. with the winds coming more off the north sea, those temperatures won't be quite as high across central and eastern scotland, central and eastern parts of england, as they were on tuesday. more around about 10 or 11 degrees. but still very mild further west — temperatures 1a, 15 degrees celsius or so in the warmest spots, probably south—west england and south wales the spots to watch. thursday sees another weather system push down across from the north sea. that's going to again thicken the cloud up, threatening some further outbreaks of rain, particularly across east anglia and especially here into parts of south—east england too. the winds still coming from a northerly direction, a lot of cloud around, but there will still be some breaks, particularly for western areas, so south—west scotland, north—west england probably doing ok, and towards the south—west of the uk as well, favoured spots for seeing a bit of sunshine at times. now, to the end of the week, our area of high pressure is still there to the west of the uk, but we're going to start to get some of these colder winds coming in from the continent. it's not a big, cold polar blast, nothing like that, but it will be chilly across east anglia and south—east england in particular. the winds will gust probably in excess of 30mph. lot of cloud to the north—west of the country — the best of the sunshine will be in that colder air across the south and east and across east anglia, but here temperatures really will struggle. we're looking at highs probably reaching around 7 degrees or so into parts of kent and around the east coast of east anglia as well. further west, that's where the highest temperatures will be — 11 to 13 degrees, something like that. now on into the weekend, the weather looks to continue to be pretty quiet, but again across east anglia, parts of south—east england, it stays on the chilly side — canterburyjust 6 celsius on saturday — with those cold winds slowly easing off. the rest of the uk — northern england, northern ireland, scotland, wales — it's quiet. there's a lot of cloud around. temperatures staying into double figures. beyond that, through the weekend and into next week, look at the jet stream pattern, and these big loops indicate that the jet stream very much blocked, so we're not expecting any sudden changes in the weather. we might well see some further weather systems trying to move in, though, from the north at times — they're likely to be quite weak, but could introduce some cloud and rain across northern portions of the uk from time to time. but essentially, the weather's pretty much set fair into next week as well. still quite a lot of cloud around, a few bright or sunny spells coming through. temperatures for the most part round about 10 to m degrees celsius. 1a with a bit of sunshine towards the south — that's not going to feel too bad, where the sunshine comes through and the winds stay light. that's your latest weather. bye for now. this is bbc news i'm tim willcox with the latest headlines for viewers in the uk and around the world. the eu's medical regulator remains "convinced" astrazeneca's vaccine is safe —
