John surtees, the only man to win the formula one and motorcycle world titles, has died aged 83. He won the fi championship in 1964. Good evening and welcome to the bbc news at six. A 23 year old drug addict who crashed his car into a family during a police chase in south london has been sentenced to 12 years in prison. In august last year, joshua dobby lost control of his car killing 34 year old Rozanne Cooper and her ten year old nephew Makayah Mcdermott and seriously injuring two other children. It emerged in Courtjoshua Dobby has 53 previous convictions, dating back to when he was 13. Tom symonds reports. It was a summers day. The family had been on their way to the park when this car came skidding off the road, hitting a bar large, lifting it into the airand down hitting a bar large, lifting it into the air and down on top of three children and their aunt. The aftermath was horrific. There were five bodies under one car. Little kids screaming, like. People passing by, drivers tried to move the car and realised there were two girls under the bonnet at the bottom of the car. The injuries suffered by Rozanne Cooper and Makayah Mcdermott could not have been survived. He loved sport and acting. She was the mainstay of her family, the court was told. They were taken from us with still many years of their lives to live and have left our family with a deep void that will never be filled. Joshua dobby ran away before being caught nearby. He was a drug addict, desperate to escape being sent back to prison. The court heard a statement from a 13 year old who described dobby stepping over her in an attempt to get away. This stupid, ugly man has shattered my life and crushed my confidence, she said. Her legs were badly scarred when she was crushed under the car. Five days before, in kent, police had chased dobby in the same car, up to 80 mph, so dobby in the same car, up to 80 mph, so risky that officers stopped the pursuit. That in the penge incident, that did not happen. The independent Police Watchdog is carrying out a criminal investigation into the conduct of officers involved. But joshua dobby took a deliberate decision to drive families say they will never recover. And they have also said today that they are concerned at the 12 year sentence. This was a man who was charged with manslaughter, rather than the lower level, causing death by dangerous driving. Road safety campaigners want more Manslaughter Charges because the maximum sentence Manslaughter Charges because the maximum sentence is life, rather than 14 years. Dobby received 12 yea rs. Than 14 years. Dobby received 12 years. He had to have his sentence reduced for pleading guilty. It shows the complexities involved for judges when they are sentencing in cases like this, where people are killed on the roads. Schools in england are being forced to make impossible choices, dropping gcse and a level courses and cutting back on school trips in an effort to balance the books, according to a Head Teachers union. And the education secretary, justine greening, was heckled by headteachers at their annual conference, as she spoke about the new wave of grammar schools. Gives me an example of a receptor. Peter might be a headteacher, but he still likes to work at the chalk face, partly because he enjoys it, and partly because it saves money for his school. The only reason we can survive is that we are carrying forward money from last year. If the government stick to their pledges over the next five years with the cash flows and budget, we will be making cuts of Something Like 70,000 every year, year on year. Every year, yearonyear. A poll of more than 1000 Union Members said 72 said they had to remove gcse options or vocational subjects from the syllabus, while 79 said they had reduced their a level or vocational offering, and 82 say that class sizes have had to increase. Head teachers here are warning that creative subjects like music are under threat. Money, or lack of it, has dominated the conversation. This is the first time the education secretary has spoken to a teaching union. Headteachers are generally a professional bunch, but they did jeer the education secretary when she said there are plans for all grammar schools, at a time when headteachers say there is not enough cash for existing schools. Such is the sensitivity around the issue, we were prevented from filming the speech. The only Images Available were photographs on the unions twitter feed, and hence we re the unions twitter feed, and hence were not impressed with her words. Its annoying to find Government Co nsta ntly its annoying to find Government Constantly saying that funding has never been higher. That is true, because we have more students. Never been higher. That is true, because we have more studentsm never been higher. That is true, because we have more students. It is absolutely dire. We are having to make cuts to our curriculum and it is untenable, really. The Chief Inspector of schools has also caused controversy, saying that some heads are deliberately offering less academically rigorous subjects to boost results. We sometimes see easier qualification is used, blanket entries, people being entered for overlapping qualifications. Things that can drift away from giving children what is absolutely right for them. The government being spent on schools this year is need to think carefully about up to fail . Some children are so far behind, it is better that they do subjects they enjoy and than subjects space and we will not pass, and they end up leaving with nothing. The former apprentice contestant and newspaper columnist Katie Hopkins has had to pay thousands of pounds in damages after libelling a food blogger in a series of tweets. Ms hopkins suggested that jack monroe approved of vandalising war memorials, when there was no evidence of it. After the verdict, ms monroes lawyer said people need to understand that being defamatory on social media is permanent and you can be sued. David sillito has more. Jack monroe is a food blogger and campaigner. Throughout these tasks, i hope i have never trodden on anyone to get where i have got to. You have. Katie hopkins made her name as an outspoken contestant on the show the apprentice macro, and went on to become an even more outspoken columnist for the daily mail. The two met on twitter. This tweet in may 2015 from Katie Hopkins to jack monroe asked her about scrawling and vandalising a war memorial. Katie hopkins had sent her message to the wrong person. Jack monroe asked for an apology. She did not get one. Today, she left court having won her 21 month libel battle. It struck a nerve and i knew there would be a tidal wave of hate, abuse and vitriol, and i was right. If it is a simple mistake, people apologise. I have made mistakes on twitter and i put my hands and say, sorry, i was out of order and i hope we can move on. If she had done that, we would not be here today. Jack monroe says she is relieved, rather pleased. For Katie Hopkins . Two tweets have proved expensive, £24,000 in damages and an extra £107,000 for Katie Hopkins in court costs. It is not the first time that a tweet has led to legal action but it certainly points out the risks. Generally, people are unaware that they are exposed to the libel laws when they tweet. This case and others will help make that clear. L Lesson Notjust for Katie Hopkins but for anyone on social media. 0nline comments can be very costly. They did sillito, bbc news. An 83 year old farmer has been cleared after shooting a suspected thief in the foot on his property. Kenneth hugill was found not guilty of grievous bodily harm. The jury heard he used a shotgun to shoot at the side of a vehicle he found on his land in the middle of the night because he was afraid the driver was going to run him over. The head of the Eu Commission Jean Claude Juncker says he hopes the uk will one day re enter the boat, thats to say return to the eu, despite voting to leave. Mrjuncker made his suggestion at the end of an eu summit in brussels, the last chance for european leaders to come together before theresa may triggers the political process for ending the uks membership. Bt has bowed to demands to hive off the part of the business that runs the uks broadband infrastructure, 0penreach, into an entirely separate company. Its in response to demands by the Industry Regulator 0fcom and follows accusations that it prioritised its own customers over rivals like sky, talktalk and vodafone. But will the move make any difference to customers in terms of a Better Service and faster broadband . Rory cellan jones reports. 90 of British Homes can now get fast broadband but in this part of rural buckinghamshire, you cant get any connection at all from bt. Gary, who has campaigned to get his village connected, thinks the company and its broadband division, 0penreach, are failing britain. They have a Quasi Monopoly on the market, and with a monopoly comres pounds abilities. There should be a responsibility to connect every house in britain with broadband. It isa house in britain with broadband. It is a necessity, part of everyday life now. Now, after pressure from 0fcom, bt has agreed to separate from 0penreach, which will have its own boss and board. The regulator had been urged to act by other firms unhappy with the broadband suppliers performance. They, like us asa suppliers performance. They, like us as a regulator, have been concerned that 0penreach has not been performing well enough, broadband has not been good enough. And they see the greater independence as a great means for 0penreach to operate with the interests of the whole Telecoms Industry at heart, notjust bt. 0penreach has been criticised for letting down british broadband industry. Among the charges, it is accused of investing too little, providing Poor Customer Service and divert in profits to other bt priorities, like sports rights. Now, as an independent operation with much of bts influence and its logo removed, the hope is that things will improve. Bt said that a shadow had been lifted from the company and its employees. There had been the threat that it could have been forced to sell off 0penreach. There evidence that produces Better Outcomes for customers. It often creates instability that undermines investment. What we need in the uk is certainty, to create conditions that promote investment and service, and this model allows us to do that. The theory is that 0penreach will now be able to cooperate better with other companies, boosting investment in broadband. But whether that will mean every home in britain gets a connection remains to be seen. Our top story this evening a drug addict has been sentenced to 12 years for crashing a car into a family during a police chase, killing two of them. Still to come as ed sheeran has nine songs in the top 10, even he says its time to have a rethink about the charts. Coming up in sportsday on bbc news we are live in cardiff, where ireland must eat wales to keep alive their hopes in the six nations. News about the recent outbreaks of ebola in west africa has centred on its devastating impact on humans. But gorilla populations are known to have suffered from the disease for some time. A third of the worlds gorillas have been killed by ebola in the last 30 years. When a group is infected, around 95 of them die. With all four species of gorilla now critically endangered, researchers from Cambridge University want to immunize gorillas in the wild. A vaccine has been tested on a small number of chimpanzees with promising results, according to a study in the journal, scientific reports. But some warn there could be serious risks. 0ur science correspondent, rebecca morelle, has more. In the african forests, an animal at risk of vanishing forever. Gorillas already face many threats, from poaching to habitat loss, but perhaps the most worrying is ebola. The deadly disease is thought to have wiped out many thousands of these great apes. Now a vaccine could be the answer. So we put it on the sides of the nose and they got under the tongue. This scientist has carried out a small trial on captive chimps, the last before Bio Medical Research on these animals was banned in the us. He found a vaccine protected them against the virus and now he wants to use it on gorillas in the wild. Ebola and other diseases are a huge threat. If these were our children, we vaccinate our children, right . We vaccinate our pets. We vaccinate domestic livestock. We vaccinate wildlife in the developed world. Why arent we vaccinating our closest relatives in africa . The deadly toll of ebola in humans is all too well known. The 2013 outbreak in west africa killed more than 11,000 people. Now, though, theres an effective human vaccine. Ebola in humans and gorillas is closely linked, the virus can cross between species. Some argue that gorillas should now be immunised, too. Gorillas are one of our relatives and saving them from extinction is now a number one priority for conservationists and an ebola vaccine does offer some much needed hope, but there could be significant risks. Closest. Finding a method to get a dose of the vaccine into every gorilla would be difficult. Theres also a risk that it could harm the animals, instead of helping them. We, as great ape conservationists, are concerned about any unintended impacts on the health of the target apes, such as introduction of a disease that might spread amongst the intended population that were trying to protect. The future of these animals is hanging in the balance. The forests are currently free of ebola, but its inevitable it will strike again. Conservationists need to decide whether the risk of vaccinating or not vaccinating is one theyre willing to take. Rebecca morelle, bbc news. Hes the multi millionaire Singer Songwriter whose hits including Thinking Out Loud and a team. Ed sheerans current hit single, the shape of you, is staying at number1 in the Singles Chart for a ninth week. Im in love with the shape of you im in love with the shape of you we im in love with the shape of you we push and pull like a magnet too. Its just been joined in the top 20 by every other song from his new album Making Chart History Because of the number of times theyve been downloaded or streamed. 0ur arts editor, will gompertz, is here. So, ed sheerans got nine songs in the top 10 and even he thinks somethings got to change about the way the charts are compiled. Its totally extraordinary, fiona. All the people who i spoke to in the British Record Industry today are torn. 0n British Record Industry today are torn. On one hand they are delighted a brit has done this amazing feat. The world is not a future of drake and beyonce and North American acts. They are concerned, if these 16 tracks sit in that top 20 for a long time, likea tracks sit in that top 20 for a long time, like a beached whale. That Singles Chart cant promote new music as it has always done. Its much more complicate than in our day. Someone would buy a single, goes through the scanner, pay money and it goes towards the chart. The top 5 would not look like that . Nothing like that. Nobody goes into a shop nowadays and buy a single. They download, pay for it, or they stream. If they stream 50 of the singles are streamed. Arent bought they are listened to, passive in a way. You have to have 150 streams to make one sale. He has had tonnes he put his album out last week. Which means that its not really recording engagement. Not recording what people are buying but what people are listening to. Its consumption. People listen to music on spotified, google. They have new lists or hit a mood, folk. Sheeran can come through those ways. The Music Industry is concerned how to get a chart which reflects what people engage with, not just listen to. They reflects what people engage with, notjust listen to. They dont broadly think there is a problem. They think there is a problem, ed sheeran accepts that, when the issue is about passive listening and not necessarily total engagement and love of music. Fascinating. Will, thank you. John surtees, the only man to win the formula one and Motorcycle Grand Prix titles, has died aged 83. Commentator going like a bomb. He started racing cars after winning multiple titles on two wheels. He took the F1 World Title in 1964. The commentator, murray walker, has paid tribute saying that surtees was undoubtedly one of the greatest people who has ever lived in the history of motor sport. Now, its going to be a fantastic weekend of sport for rugby and football fans. With all the details, Katherine Downes is at the Principality Stadium in cardiff for us. We are underneath the roof here where ireland know that really only a win here against Wales Tonight will do for them if they want to give themselves the best chance of lifting this trophy once again. Going into the match they will also know that if results and bonus points go their way, england could wrap up the six nations title against scotland at twickenham tomorrow where the scots havent won for 34 years. Joe wilson looks ahead to the calcutta cup. South again to twickenham, where scotland do win, ask an older relative. Greig laidlaws uncle was there. 1983 was when it last happened, rugby union was strictly an amateur sport. Commentator that really was one of the great calcutta cup tries scotland winger, roger baird, worked in the Grain Industry then, as he does now, and the spirit of 83 lingers. I still see, you know, a lot of the guys that i played with. So i think, yeah, you know, with a smaller nation, you always feel up against it a wee bit, you know, so you maybe get a bit closer. In adversity, you know, that maketh the man. So, yeah, i think the spirit will be there in aplenty. These days, englands Rugby Resources are unmatched, boasting some 340,000 registered players. In scotland, that figures around 49,000, the smallest of the six nations. Size isnt everything. This season, scotland have already beaten ireland and wales. If you cant go through your opponents, you can dodge round them, use all 15 players. Commentator two chances, two scores, two tries for scotland vern, knowing your players as you do now, what is the key asset which will enable you to win this match . Oh, its team. Its functioning as a team. Working hard as a team and making sure that, erm, we back each other up and we keep our heads up the paddock and see whats coming. Now im only falling apart. Well, back in 83, Power Ballads were the rage. Bonnie tyler, number one in march. A Total Eclipse of the heart. It was only whispered here as the team left, but if Scotland Beat england, they could win the six nations. A Sporting Eclipse . Totally. Joe wilson, bbc news, edinburgh. This weekend isnt just this weekend isntjust about rugby. Tomorrow could see one of the biggest upsets in fa cup history. Non League Lincoln city travel to the emirates to take on arsenal in the emirates to take on arsenal in the Quarter Finals of the fa cup. Sometimes a mismatch can prove unpredictable. Lincoln have beaten Premier League opposition in the last round. Natalie pirks reports. Commentator lincoln have made history. The first time theyve ever been in the fa cup Quarter Finals. In an fa cup where the romance has returned, lincoln citys odyssey has made footballing hearts rejoice. From the cathedral, all the way to sincil bank, the clubs exploits are the talk of the town. Talk about leicester last year. Talk about lincoln this year because thats how good it is. I wouldnt mind betting that they could just nick it by a goal. Well, lincoln city is a team battling for honours on all fronts, including two cup competitions and the league, and its all been put down to their new management team. If Arsene Wenger is the professor, then lincoln city have the teachers. This time last year, manager danny cowley, and his brother, assistant manager, nicky, were pe teachers at a school in essex, working part time with another non league club. They managed their first match in front of 62 people, 60,000 at the emirates is quite a leap. For us, we have to have a belief that we can win the game. We respect the fact that it might be one in 1,000, but if that is what the odds are, we go there expecting it to be that one time. A non league side hasnt reached the Quarter Finals since 1914. A year later, lincoln beat arsenal in their last competitive match. Graham lynns grandad, billy, scored the winning goal. Hed have been so proud and he scored 18 goals in 76 games for lincoln. Hed fancy his chances. Hed want to be a part of it. Striker matt rhead is one of the lucky ones who will be. After a decade welding jcbs, the 32 year old finally turned pro four years ago. A dream come true. To think that, five or six years ago, i was playing in front in front of 200 people, to playing in front of 60,000. Its something that you only see in movies, to be fair. Its a once in a lifetime opportunity and well make the most of it. This cup run has already netted the club more than £1 million. For the players and the 9,000 fans heading to arsenal though, some experiences are priceless. Natalie pirks, bbc news. Whatever the outcome it will be a historic weekend for lincoln city.

During a live interview on bbc world news, he manfully soldiered on despite a couple of unexpected and energetic intruders. The question is, how did markets respond to those scandals .
