Until he was weakened by old age the judge said he doubted whether it would be safe ever to let McCann out of prison and he ordered that he serve at least 30 years before he could be considered for release too many children are still being arrested by police in the Thames Valley that's according to the Howard League for Penal Reform which is released the latest arrest figures today there more than 2 and a half 102018 higher than the year before but down from the start of the decade the charity's c.e.o. Francis Crick says she's disappointed that hasn't been further reductions in the numbers calling on the police particularly Thames Valley who have a fantastic track record they've done so well but they could do a lot better and I'm disappointed that this year they have managed to reduce child arrests a bit more it's a success story overall but they could do much better we have approached Thames Valley police for a comment on this story police in New Zealand say they don't expect to find any more survivors after one of the country's most active volcanoes erupted this morning 5 people are known to have died on White Island Film us a report from Sydney you Zealand Police say that surveillance aircraft have found no signs of life on White Island after the eruption hikers were seen near the rim of the crater just moments before it happens they are presumed to be dead rescuers have been unable to search the islands because of the risk of another eruption the volcano is considered to be too unstable and has sent plumes of ash and smoke billowing more than 2 miles into the sky several survivors have terrible burns and are critically ill back like Alina police in San thoughts which they say they're working hard to trace shotguns and ammunition stolen during a burglary in North Melton a difficult that was taken between 1230 and 5 on Saturday the 30th of November after a Fender smashed the back door of a house in Wallingford Ray's jewelry laptops and silverware were also taken now medical students need to be given more lessons on how to prevent sleep problems among their patients according to. Oxford academic Russell Foster the founder of the sleep Institute has introduced a new online program for students in Oxford to top up their knowledge he says it's necessary because of the number of health issues caused by lack of sleep I think the problem is that in a 5 year trying most of the medics will have maybe one or 2 lectures if not on sleep and it's been estimated that as a g.p. 30 percent of the problems that they will encounter either directly or indirectly related to sleep problems and they simply. And so it's it is whether it will be a fine and dry off to new highs of 9 Celsius this evening and tonight it's clear and dry for much of the night with temperatures falling away from likely in places like as if they are I am small right bands of rain will spread in from the west early on in the evening a shot band of heavy rain will sweep through bringing very strong winds highs of 12 Celsius b.b.c. Radio Sydney's 3 minutes 40. Radio. Or do you think of the strictly semi final that you think the right person when it's on next week very citing showdowns who we will talk about the semifinal the one step at a time will with Fluffy a catchy mystery in about half an hour next week going back to the future to morrow actually with a presenter in science net Rick Edwards who is launching himself in Mia and a new Science Show the edge of science will see Rick attempts to leverage Yes really. Pulling the plug. The leak. The. He's. She's doing better to consume a few cakes a chick. Last. B.b.c. Radio Works would 8 minutes past 2 it's Monday afternoon immaturely would be through until full Adam Baldwin follows and then Joe chinos at 7 with the f b s Forces Radio on b.b.c. Radio Works for it now that's coming in the future but let's go back to the future . I love this the. World. Loads. I mean anything with symbols I am that I me what would your super power of choice be How about never take ssion you could channel you in the movie see McFly. A hey hey hey hey hey that little girl who looked up look I need for you oh I love abortion. There's Luke on. The. Cut. I. Oh Debbie's Alright well that is actually a dream come true full science Ned presenting Edwards he's got a new series on you with the b.b.c. Called The Age of Science Let's have a little. About trying to do something I've always dropped off but never thought Welcome to the big. South Oh says exonerates starts tomorrow Now you may know Rick from t. Full back in the days also present the Paralympic example radio shows in the moment hosts the pole cost Science Show and I spoke to him a little while ago and I asked the science grads what it is he loves about the subject that is close to my heart take automatically like science explains or attempt to explain everything yes I do not find that fascinating to me Yeah yeah absolutely if you can do it brilliant you know that we do and make example like you all the better say things show that starts to the edge of signs of it like I need some reverb what stood out about to do it with the with a voice night but I won't play the robots thank you so much. Yeah I want to tell us about the edge of the edge assigned to each on a diva so in this 1st episode we are trying to levitate me which is not spot on or not easy. But I kind of I want to do this is the 1st episode because I think what's useful about levitation is that people immediately get it you don't need to have any interest in science to understand what levitation means you've got to go oh yeah that that and because I don't so I think well that's not possible but I kind of knew that there was enough interesting sort of scientific research in there and it and I and experimentation going on that something would be possible. And so I thought said to you to go on that one that we have got there and I said Yes Ok fine. And then I spent an entire shoot fretting that I had over promised. It was going to be so crushing failure. And I'd also be brutally honest wishing that I didn't weigh $100.00 k. I. Was not helpful if I was half the size it would be a lot. I mean we've not giving too much away what does it feel like to levitate So it is very weird. Suppose the weirdest thing is that your brain can really compute by going on. Sort of feels like you are balance saying unlike an unstable thought. Stable skateboard but your brain just a sheaves it must be something it can't the idea that there is nothing between you in the ground yet it doesn't really register so it's just the reaction of people inside that are you are you are off the ground and not into your hand. Passing stuff like this it is it's just very good because it doesn't feel like you should be out to do it it's quite a poorly understood scientific phenomena I really think yeah like we went through various forms of levitation because I was thinking that no so it is is a magnetic field but it's a magnetic field with a superconductor cold so called down to minus 200 degrees and the superconductor locks seen to the magnetic field it's just this effect of quantum levitation and there's no real agreement on exactly what is happening and those who allow this locking effect it seems to be happening a quantum level but we can see the effects we can demonstrate the effect we can use the effect but the actual physical process of it is somewhat of a mystery which again as a science geek I love so much like I did. I don't really understand this. Step aside everyone I mean this is part of why it's not going to be made so. That would be a tad up but it's been a really good job done. Itself and I think a lot of my Yeah my lecturers at university fairly amazed as well. Ok so I mean Next stop flying right well I think the thing with flying is I guess there are people out there like you've seen those pictures of people with those rockets I was going to show you yeah cross the Channel you know using so that there was a sense we probably wouldn't just because I think people have seen enough of it there's a lot of ideas I think invisibility is a good one yes some really exciting stuff around that will again have that same day we like you are kidding. That must be a trick. So that's a possibility it's you know well sort of going to move on to a bit of science fiction and sort of about would be but invisibility would be x. Where would you go to wreck Edwards if you could because if you'd read the invisibility cloak or whatever well why would you go would you listen to what you see what you do it's quite it's quite pedestrian really but I'm always interested you know group chat with your with your best friends you know that splinter chat. Chat and you know you because you're involved with them but you therefore know that they're also happening without your cage and they this is going to happen when your in it and so I quite like to just sit in with some of my best friends and just see what they're saying about me. Yeah it's not it's not a particularly lofty ambition but I would like to know if. You love me what you do with it all what you know. You know social media paranoia I mean folks have that right not one of these people can sign until May. Crumbs go exciting crimbo plan. I've got they owe the guy she actions with my wife the way we spend you know. Well yes we have been all tonight saying which is the only fair way of doing it however the last year we were with her family but she got norovirus so she if I was away was out of action for the entire us. Failing is that she didn't really spend Christmas with our family which is fair however it's not going to go down well with my mom and dad so does. The only she's got tides yet sorry about this Rick had puts on a little earlier today and the edge of science is a huge cheap original and a b.b.c. Studio special the series on she's on You Tube. You A family house family. On Ocean Drive Bay We see radio walks food 21 minutes past 2. Weeks a morning from 10 I want to join me is to get all music to take to stop this very. Things the trucks. In Cullman with can find songs on the street link I don't know what it is it's your brains and mine against the coming mines of the produce is the wind I'm never happy and if it's just some I joined by celebrity guests I can barely keep them out my name is Kiefer Sutherland You're listening. To morning sometime on b.b.c. Radio b.b.c. Well I'm talking all of celebs this morning Kalman spoke to a rock'n'roll supreme she has paved the way and inspired generations of women into the business c.c. Quatro has lived quite the life with new music and a film in the works she went back in time well we've already been back to the future so we might as well go back in time with that to talk about what fame was like 1st Susie at the beginning. What was it like back then like because I feel that if if somebody wants a reality show you know they you know get a good decent shotting record and they are sort of flung into this world that they don't know too much about there is the support that but actually being flung into this wild as you know a rock star in the 1970 s. Do you know there was that just like a whirlwind I mean did you have that support where you've gone through a toll I don't forget I was raised in a musical family so I was raised professionally that was my attitude I'm a professional I didn't go all nuts on the fame in the Sex and the drugs and the rocker that wasn't me whatsoever I didn't need guidance because of my upbringing I took it all as part of my job but you didn't necessarily want to be the front woman that you became this rock star that you because I'm sure did Are you kidding are you kidding I wanted that from day one I wanted that from a child when I 1st realized that I had the ability to hold an audience I was always going to be in a detainer always from very very young and of course I saw Elvis at the age of 6 and I had that the lightbulb moment rise said I'm going to do that I'm going to do what he does. And then you pave the way for you know other female rock stars as well I mean you're an icon there's no 2 bones about it you are an icon and you have actually opened that door and continue to open that door and show female rock stars with aspirations the why in this business Yeah and I think you know the reason I fell on my shoulders to be the 1st one was because I actually didn't do gender and if you speak to people from that era and I've had many conversations about his Did I look like a girl up there trying to show you I could do it you do and they always say no you know I just look natural up there I wasn't playing to sex. Car I was being a musician and staying true to me and that's right from to me to kick the door down . And you could hear the full interview with Suzi Quatro much much more can be Sounds like you do go and listen out for Actually it was while you were the listen that's can't do with Susie cool what show and sticking with the celeb theme on the show with can't tomorrow from 10 what was Prince ready like what were his quirks his favorite songs is going to be going to hit all of that with new power generation member Morris Hayes who worked with the purple one right up until the end memories working with the legend. Radio. Travel at the time is 25 past 2 how the trend is back with us delays in Bambery still Hanna Yeah a couple things actually so head of way coming out about Britain quite busy as you go towards the m 40 but I could have been you also quite busy in both directions between Hanif way and the musketeer at those coming out of Barry into Bloxham to expect to really slow down on the a 361 because of some place in wicked that is templates affecting both sides the south and is much worse as you head for Wycombe into blocks them a 14 on the can busybody directions between casting to the engine roundabouts and for the ring road in Oxford these to bypass was the most westbound as you go towards the it's a more roundabout way that if although that is coping well as well as the m 40 times ever travel from b.b.c. Radio I'm Hannah trained. Your travel away so wait 100. Days a travel. Book the latest. Out from a cover of done some as I fill up from Sun Smithfield side of this c.b.c. Radio explodes but it's in its Citizens Advice was founded 80 years ago and still helps people by giving independent advice last year they her. 24000 people. Benefits universal credit debt. Relationships but they need help to. Receptionist. Right. From helping the community you need help. If you become a volunteer. 330-3126 . B.b.c. Don't. You feel love. Oh yes I'm Smith back and it's. Good as ever. A really tough boss to you time to reflect on the weekend how was your weekend what were you up to we getting from police Christmas a remember Dave a preview this morning saying you just sort of gone from Scrooge to Christmas elf just in an instant he's gone Christmas but down as Oh yes you see that and all of a where someone ate the artwork off the wall is worth Like 120000 dollars something to put on I got to take to the walls of another are to say to any way of them talk about what I just said banana and got sort of side tracked if you will now what I was up to all start with us today I'll tell you Sunday in a little bit south today did Christmas wreaths a making was in my element really enjoyed that you can see it on my Twitter feed if you would like I'm just putting out there because I'm really proud of it at Lilly Michel go one basket I will take all of the well you can say you don't like it but if you do like it that's great too and then my mom and I went for an early Christmas present so she has been a bit like Suzi Quatro a big fan of Elvis you never got to see him sadly because he never performed in the u.k. But she was on his found lists and she was sort of 10 or 11. And we went to see this guy who I knew was really really good in fact I'm trying to get him on the show I just think about this at Christmas yes please his name is Ben Portsmouth and he won a few years ago the Memphis sort of international Elvis impersonator competition so he is really good and my mom who is the biggest Elvis fan was watching in the in the interval it's like watching Elvis so no mistaking this chap's talent however. They already and it's where some of the what I think of what its members feel like I'm on my train and grump bike again firmly sat there but like wandering in a sort of full minutes past and getting up and shouting and lots of drinking and getting going to the loo again and coming back again and down to the side of videoing and pile. It's. Yes I'm Frank. Let's make a and Grace Kelly b.b.c. Radio is it 25 minutes to 3 this Monday afternoon now let's just go back to the weekend. I just cannot do that sorry it was semi finals week on Strictly Come Dancing and the remaining 4 couples have to learn to new John says from scratch Kelvin for the 2nd 40 of the series Top marks with a feather light sparkling quickstep feel Sysco to 10 for his powerful pass a dope like that would tends for a career in zeros Argentine tango and American Smooth and the bobbins it squeeze it full story waltz also scored its. Meanwhile judge Craig Revel Horwood told Chris Ramsay he was extremely proud of his progress through the competition but Chris found himself in the dance off against Kareem and the judges saved Kareem So Chris and his partner Karen our missed out on the final no tears no sadness Yeah little tiny few tears of joy while she was covered and there's a forest and it's just been awesome on it yeah I mean incredible it I'm speechless I like being speechless because I sort of have every angle. Really but you know what it's been one hell of an adventure and really it's been fantastic and I just have to tell you thank you. Thank you. Guys actually they were brilliant pairing to watch but they are not through to next week's final and when I spoke to former pro winner Flavia catch a mystery I said that my favorite dance of the night was Calvin's quick quick step and he seems to be able to embody the character of every Don't style Yeah I totally agree I've said like the last couple weeks not that I'm biased in any way I'm on the Mall to do well but yes I have definitely got a little soft spot for Calvin I think when I saw he was a Charleston was one of the 1st I think more recent routines I've seen that he done and Di absolutely loved it and there's something about his performance which is I think it's quite role and natural and he doesn't think too much about it it just comes from kind of within so he doesn't have to try too hard to be engaging in to kind of jaw the audience in so I think that's what people are really kind of warming to yeah I agree with you you know the critics it was brilliant and also I thought that Karim I'm asking you here you know sort of with your Argentine Tango hat on as well but I mean it's in the 2nd one we've seen but I've really enjoyed it I thought it was quite a convincing effort at the Argentine Tango definitely. I mean it's as a one way says it is a tricky don'ts because I think the main reason is it's very different technically to all the obvious So where you see some similarities in technique in the ballroom dances in the Latin dunces time is very different and it's quite challenging Don't think for the man it's got to be you know you have to think that you've got 4 legs to control for the lady it's got to let your being lead to and it's not an easy thing for like the following and also then taking charge of various moments within the rating Yeah so it's a really challenging dance in the room the as a choreographer he was quite tricky so I thought he did brilliantly I think he's natural He's a very sweet Don says he really suits like the happy Fred and Ginger numbers yeah they come more natural to him so I think for him to go into like such a deep intense movie dance I think he did really incredibly well actually yes and then before we get to who left I'm just finishing with the final trio who having 3 times we just has the biggest smile seems to be absolutely loving it I'm really happy for him going through. I think everyone is that. Everyone's happy for Emma but I think they're more happy you know they even happier on film to be honest yeah so yeah I know it's brilliant I think it's so well deserved and you never know what to expect I was a bit maybe concerned about the cha cha I thought this is going to let them down a little bit because she's more of a boardroom girl but I thought it was brilliant I thought her energy was grey I love the routine I think technically she actually you know considering they were going to dances Yeah I think technically she did really really well you know I think she got the lockstep action in and I could see that there was a lot movement in the hips and she was technically looked correct it just needed maybe you know if they'd had an extra week it would have been you know a 100 times better but what they did was we was really good very entertaining and she always looks like she's. Every 2nd on that she does have the biggest smile and then Chris bless him you know he's he's really good at telling stories I was with them in the Rumble even though there wasn't a whole war. I think it was the right decision he said slightly out of his depth I think compared to the other 3 maybe I think so I think so I think when you have when you start you know dances in a week it kind of will really show up where you're at really I'm Nothing is he said he's incredibly entertaining he's I think just yet when he speaks about her own smaller larf and he has this energy that takes on to the dance floor within the routines as well I mean the room but let's be honest it's probably you know as we all know it's a really difficult dance for the most celeb states so to have that as your 2nd talents in the semifinal is quite challenging you know for the best you know dances so I think he did in amazing job but he was very gracious in everything and I think he's had a fantastic journey I think he wasn't expecting it you know to get this far anyway but he deserved to yeah he was a lot of people's favorites Yeah. Yeah let's think ahead then to the final you have won it yourself Flavia what does it take to win sort of come dancing I mean it takes a mix of different things you know obviously the dancing has to be there it also takes a lot of determination a lot of kind of mental focus depends on how there's so much to do in the final and I think it's also to do a little bit with like muscle memory in a way because 2 of the dances that they're going to be doing are dances they've already done yes it's out so about kind of remembering So it's about how quick can you remember something that you did maybe 234 weeks ago. And remember the technique and remember the musicality said the quicker you can sort of recap those dances and put them to one side then you have time to focus on the show did. Which is kind of you know the it's the Mike I want you hope yeah is the is the highlight section but if it takes you quite a long time to remember the 2 old routines then you have less time for the show Don's have again it depends a little bit on the each individual as to how they sort of deal with it and react Yes when you said muscle memory so you can say it's all down to muscles and I thought well Kelvin's what it is going to he's got it all. Over the place and who do you think not only do you want to him but who do you think will win I have a feeling I have a feeling it will be Calvin from a dunce point to purely like a dunce pointy I think it's covering all Korean. I think probably I have a feeling that you would it's may go for Calvin because it's a little bit more roll yeah yeah you know like Polish not as trained as you know a little bit more unexpected more of a surprise that he's actually as good as he is yes yes so I also I you know I feel that I feel like you know what you know we want to reward all 3 of them for very different regions but I'm a cut kind of my heart goes a little bit more with him because it was just a little bit more unexpected that so I'm with you that and the doodling How's the doodling today but if it up carrying on there it's carrying on and it's developing right great great great she does like a doodle we discovered this when she came into b.b.c. Radio us with studios last year just reams and reams of digital so I just feel like we have to catch up with dueling and dancing with Levick Flavia catch a mystery lovely lady and the final is on Saturday at 5 past 7 for 2 hours the remaining 3 couples take to fall for the very last time to perform 3 routines each they are going to perform their favorite the judges will pick one that they think they can most improve on and they want to see again and then of course it is the show Dance And the midst of all that was a guest performance from Taylor Swift. Was there was a singer. Who. Was. Get a Stevie Nicks. An edge of 17 on b.b.c. Radio Oxford b.b.c. Radio walks that you've got the tree. Even the presence of switching on your Christmas lights they see and that is sad just. Make it Up With The Breakfast Club whether you're at how. Pick up the phone and tell us why you'd like us to switch on your Christmas lights on the Breakfast Club just. 109100 small help to sprinkle some Christmas cheer across Oxfordshire this is. Like you got your life this Christmas from the breakfast. It's on yet tell you why. I went to get the Christmas tree yesterday got one put it . This way be flimsy Christmas tree holder. And it kept going. To one side and start up again. Like I have collected bubbles for all of my life we are not putting them on the Christmas tree. That keeps falling over so I'm going to vote tonight with my Christmas to hold. Forth to get them all Christmassy with the pipes and get some coaching like. There was some asleep. In church. Lol So let's. Say the mother. Son. But. First. Really the book she. Fairytale of New York I know it is some of your favorites I would split still favorite Christmas song white 109100 we will almost certainly play it for you over the coming weeks you can text as I read it with restart your message Oxford get a plum full of hope it's a tough one I'm going to go wild school is either going to be Bing Crosby's White Christmas who I absolutely must think is gorgeous voice but not as cool just as not King Cole and the Christmas song so they go there my face. Maybe c.b. Radio. Telling save the travel and the trend is a spring going some sort trevally good news sort of busy Only a fool to those of us out there want to.

Of the Howard League for Penal Reform she says 2525 boys and girls aged 17 and arrested in 2018 is still too high and means they're more likely to re-offend armed forces do things like they monitor every child arrest they question whether it was necessary they question whether it could be done in a different way to make sure that children not be damaged to make sure also that p.c.
