Its been ten years to the day since the start of the Global Financial crisis. Thats when banks started to realise they had bet that couldnt afford to be paid back. Ill be finding out what lessons have been learned and whether it could happen again. Anger at the athletics World Championships, after one of the favourites to win the 400 metres is told he cant compete following an outbreak of norovirus. Yes, the fallout from the virus really overshadowed the 400 metres final last night. The runner didnt feature and in his absence Wayde Van Niekerk cruised to victory to retain his title. Like a Rhinestone Cowboy. Country star Glen Campbell has died at the age of 81. And carol has the weather. Good morning. We have a wet start in england and wales and through the day the showers pushing in the direction of the south east. Heavy and thundery. Some issues with fluttering flooding. In the sunshine it will feel pleasant. More Inis Sunshine it will feel pleasant. More in 15 minutes. Thank you. First, our main story. Tensions between the us and north korea have reached new heights. President trump has warned kim jong un that if he continues to threaten america, he would be met, in mr trumps words, with fire, fury and power. North korea says it considers carrying out Missile Strikes on an American Island in the pacific. This report from washington. North korea best not make any more threats to the united states. They will be met with Fire And Fury like the world has never seen. Unprecedented language from an american president. Donald trump officially escalated the us stand off with north korea from his perch on a Walking Vacation at his golf course in newjersey working. The trigger, a report saying pyongyang had produced a Nuclear Warhead small enough to fit inside its missiles. That much closer to the capability of striking the us. The president s angered response could draw range in the hopes of the dramatic solution. After a rare decision by the un to slap sanctions on the regime. North korea news is kimjong un already has a plan to strike the us Pacific Territory Of Guam, which appears to have been put on place before trumps remarks. President trump often we decide his predecessor barack 0bama for not sticking to his red lines on Foreign Policy when he was in the white house. But now mr trump has drawn a breadline with harsh new rhetoric. Red line. The question is, what happens if north korea crosses it . 500 new medical School Places will be made available in england next year, as the government attempts to boost the number of home grown doctors in the nhs. The target is to increase the total number of Training Places by a x 20 20 to help ease staffing pressures. The British Medical Association says it wont address the immediate shortage. More doctors, home grown. The government has given more detail today on what it says will be the biggest ever expantion of the medical workforce in england. What were doing is ensuring that we train enough home grown doctors so the nhs becomes self sufficient in doctors over the period of the next ten years or so. And we think that thats the best way to ensure that we have the doctors we need for the future. Next year, an extra 500 medical School Places will be made available. By 2020, that number will grow to 1500, reprsenting a 25 increase in yearly intake over all. And Medical Schools will have to win many of those extra places by showing that they can get graduates to work in rural or coastal areas, where recruitments more of a struggle, and by bringing in trainees from diverse and disadvantaged backgrounds. We welcome the governments approach, looking at how they can get more people from poorer backgrounds to study medicine. It is something which the bma has been talking about for many years but there are lots of questions about how these medical School Places are going to be funded and how the government is going to tackle the immediate recruitment and retention crisis of doctors in the nhs. This is all part of wider plans to create thousands more Training Places for nurses, midwives and health professionals. The labour party says it does not add up to any significant new investment. But, ultimately, it will be patients who decide whether this extra dose of doctors proves to be an effective medicine. Jessica parker, bbc news. Well be speaking to a Health Minister about those new targets at 7 10. You know when they say time flies . It really does. Its exactly ten years today since what many consider to be the start of the financial crisis. Steph, you loved it, didnt you . Yes, there is good that comes with bad. It was good for my career but not for the rest of the world. It gave us a real insight into the financial industry. You remember 11 13 years ago it was hard to make this interesting for people and then on this day ten years ago the banks started to realise they were hoarding lots of toxic debt, debt that people had taken out and couldnt be paid back. A lot of it was linked to house sales in america, so people who were overborrowing essentially and realised they couldnt afford to pay it out and it had been dressed up in so it out and it had been dressed up in so many different ways by the banks and sold on to other banks. No one had a clue what these things were worth and that was the critical point. Ten years ago this french bank pulled out a statement saying they didnt know what some of their assets were worth. That sent jitters around the world. In the weeks and months following that all of the banks started to realise that they too had things they didnt really know what were worth, so we had massive banks Like Northern rock, they had a run on the bank, it ended up they had a run on the bank, it ended up leaving the high street and we saw the collapse of leeman brothers, another huge bank in america. So it really changed the way banking was done and it meant is in an new rules have come out about how much banks have come out about how much banks have to hold in order to actually function as a bank and weve seen banks being looked at in terms of separating the whiskey site compared to the high street. They basically have to behave. Yes and we have seen Interest Rates cut, so thats been the biggest thing, the fact that we saw Interest Rates go from about 6 down to 0. 25 and nobody thought they would still be that low. We will be talking about the morning. A decade since the Credit Crunch. Thanks. Childrens services are being pushed to Breaking Point due to increased demand and cuts in Council Budgets, according to the local government association. The lga says three quarters of English Councils overspent on child social care by a total of more than half a billion pounds last year. A government spokesman said councils would receive around £200 billion for local services up to 2020. The lga says its not enough. Kenyas incumbent president Uhuru Kenyatta has taken a strong lead as votes are counted after tuesdays election. With three quarters of results in, mr kenyatta has a lead of close to ten over his rival. However, the Opposition Coalition has rejected the figures, and has accused officials of publishing fake results. Five men facing criminal charges over the Hillsborough Disaster are due in court later today. Three of them are accused of trying to cover up what happened in 1989. The Police Match Commander on the day, former chief superintendent David Duckenfield, wont be in the dock. 0ur reporter Ben Schofield has more on this. Ben, why is David Duckenfield not going to be in court . It is about one month since the Crown Prosecution Service said they wa nted Crown Prosecution Service said they wanted to charge six men with various different offences relating to hillsborough. David duckenfield faces the most serious charges. 95 individual councils manslaughter. But prosecutors need to apply to the high court to lift a court order banning him from being prosecuted before they can take that case forward. The remaining five include the secretary and Safety Officer from Sheffield Wednesday Football Clu B from Sheffield Wednesday Football Club at the time of the disaster. He and David Duckenfield were the only two who face charges relating to be fatal crushing itself. Three men as you say face charges of perverting the course of justice. You say face charges of perverting the Course Ofjustice. They are two Police Officers from South Yorkshire police and a lawyer, who was providing advice to the police force. And the fifth man we are expecting is sir norman peterson, a former chief constable who ran both merseyside and west york Police Forces. Sir Norman George bettison. It is expected to be a Brief Hearing, but nevertheless a significant step as these cases progress, some 28 years after the disaster. More coverage on the rapid bay. Thank you. Athletics chiefs have been criticised for denying a medal favourite entry to the London Stadium amid concerns over an outbreak of norovirus. Around 30 athletes and support staff have been affected by sickness at the World Championships, but only botswanas Isaac Makwala has been prevented from competing, as andy swiss reports. As Wayde Van Niekerk charged to the 400 metres title, the first gold of a potential double at these championships, much of the focus was still on his absent challenger. Isaac makwala was told he couldnt compete after his sickness because organisers had to protect the welfare of the athletes. At the team from botswana were left frustrated. We respect the decision if it is based on Public Health issues, however, it is the manner in which this decision was arrived at which is quite disturbing and as we have indicated this matter has been approached in britain grabs. We feel very sorry for the athletes that have to not participate but we have a responsibility for all of the athletes and if we allowed them all to sit down, its a tight community, we need to make sure that all of the athletes are we need to make sure that all of the athletes a re protected we need to make sure that all of the athletes are protected as well. Meanwhile, britains medal near misses continue, despite the performance of karl langford. Ron is just eluding him in the 800 metres by an agonising four hundredths of a second. And among todays highlights is the return of mo farah, as he goesin is the return of mo farah, as he goes in the heats of the 5000 metres. He is still the british teams only medallist here and it is now halfway through the championships. Tributes have been paid to the American Country music star Glen Campbell, whos died after what his family called a Long And Courageous Battle with alzheimers. He was 81. Dolly parton said he had one of the greatest voices of all time. He was famous for hits including Rhinestone Cowboy and Wichita Lineman. 0ur arts correspondent David Sillito looks back on his life. I am a lineman for the county. Wichita lineman, its wide open spaces, yearning, loneliness, america turned into song. But what truly made it a masterpiece was the voice of Glen Campbell. I hear you singing in the wires. He had been born in billstown arkansas, a large poor family of cotton pickers. His escape was his uncle boo, who taught him to play guitar. Little baby, how i love you. He could play anything and on hundreds of singles with the Session Musicians the wrecking crew, phil spector, the righteous brothers, frank sinatra, it was Glenn Campbell on guitar. And eventually. A Breakthrough Hit of his own. Rivers flowing gentle on my mind. But it was the partnership with Songwriterjimmy Webb that gave him his career defining songs by the time. Galveston, Wichita Lineman. Clean cut, conservative, he was suddenly Country Musics biggest star, with his own tv show. I have someone who needs me someone ive needed so long. But im going to be where the lights are shining on me. Rhinestone cowboy was a glorious return to form after a dip in his fortunes that had taken place in the 705. But his personal life was farfrom glorious. I think i probablyjust quit letting god run my life and i actuallyjust got into the drugs and the booze pretty heavy. I am a lineman for the county, and i. What . Drive. Drive the main roads. That slight stumble over the words, it was the beginning of alzheimers. And the Wichita Lineman. Hed long put his wild days behind him, but memories were fading. Still on the line. What stayed with him when so much else had gone was the music. The songs of Glenn Campbell. Time to get the weather forecast. It doesnt look too nice, please tell me thats going to change . This is one of our pictures from yesterday. It is a cracking photo of some tornadoes and over the water, cold waterspouts. We will see these systems pushing down into the south east, some heavy and bunbury rain and showers over the south east. 0ther rain and showers over the south east. Other areas starting off ona dry south east. Other areas starting off on a dry note, Brightening Up, but dont be fooled. A dry start for scotla nd dont be fooled. A dry start for scotland and Northern Ireland, also Northern England, bits and pieces of cloud around. Coming across yorkshire and lincolnshire, threw through the midlands, this is where weve got some rain. Some showers in wales and cloud, pushing in from the far side of east anglia and kent, a cloudy start but starting to brighten up. Through the course of the day, that will change. Expecting heavy downpours across east anglia and South East England. Some disruption because of this, and there could be some Surface Water Flooding issues. Keep tuned to your television and radio station. Through the day, rain sinks out. Temperatures rising, some home grown showers in the south east. That, nation is causing downpours. Expect some fonder. Behind that, across the midlands and through parts of yorkshire, wales, Brightening Up. South west england as well, a bit of sunshine. Sunshine further north. 21 and light breezes in glasgow, feeling quite pleasant. Under the cloud and rain, quite pleasant. Some of us will see low double figures. 0vernight, rain around in the south east corner. It is fragmenting and starting to weaken. A lot of dry weather around. Some late showers, some mist and fog patches as well. Cloud thickening across the far north of scotland. Some spots of rain. You can see why. This Weather Fronts not too far away. Tomorrow, High Pressure exceeding its influence. For many of us, a dry day with a lot of sunshine. Eventually we lose the dregs of rain from the south east, Cloud Vicarfrom we lose the dregs of rain from the south east, cloud vicar from the north of scotland. The low pressure with that front is starting to arrive. Temperatures lower in glasgow, quite different in the south east. High temperatures and dry. A bit of a change afoot. Look at that little guilty smile its fine. See you later. Time for a look at the papers. The guardian, covering sir Glenn Campbell, who died at the age of 81. Tributes pouring in. Tributes pouring donald trump, warning of Fire And Fury, reacting to north koreas military threats. The main headline again, there is no picture at this story is appearing in a lot of papers about this jogger, who pushed a woman into the path of a bus. The woman tried to speak to him when he came back, but he apparently ignored her and jogged on. Not a very nice person at all. The daily mail leading with a story saying that migrants have made 30,000 attempts to Reach Britain and calais this year, despite costly security measures. And the daily telegraph, Glenn Campbell again. A very impressive photo on the front of the telegraph. He died at the age of 81. We will be reflecting on this morning. And ten years since the start of the Global Financial crisis. Interestingly, the stock market is hitting record highs at the moment. We will be talking more about that in half an hour. This is about that in half an hour. This is a really interesting story about a scam from people imitating royal mail. People are getting cards through the post, not official royal mail cards, but when you ring the phone number you get charged 45 quid. It is a bit of a shocker. They are warning about that, saying dont ring that number. There is an official royal mail information number. Also, when you go to the cinema, you have to think about when you are going to go to the loo, time it correctly. Someone has developed an app that will tell you when the boring bits of the movie are on so you can go to the toilet. It also gives you a summary, so that when you go to the toilet, you havent missed anything. That is quite clever surely you could just go before the film starts. |j clever surely you could just go before the film starts. I dont think i have ever born in a movie, not even in lord of the rings. Ladder of steel. Bladder. More now on our top story. North korea says its considering carrying out a Ballistic Missile strike on the us territory of guam in the western pacific. Earlier, President Trump declared that any further threats from pyongyang would be met, as he put it, with fire, fury and power. Lets talk to niall stanage, white house columnist for the us political website the hill, based in washington dc. Could you tell us what you make of Donald Trumps reaction . Strong words, hes not messing about. No, hes not, he is clearly escalating the rhetoric and at the same time, risking escalating this crisis. We saw President Trump appearing to read from notes as he delivered the words you have recited, but i know from my own sources that there are people in the administration who think his approach can be a fact did. They see the real audience for these remarks as being china, basically warning china of instability if it does not bring north korea, its ally, into line. It isa north korea, its ally, into line. It is a gamble if that strategy will work, and the dangers of losing that gamble could be catastrophic. China has said that it is 100 committed to enforcing the latest round of sanctions enforced by the un. I wonder who this message is really to . There are reports of falling popularity, is he as setting himself . There are also questions about whether or not he is in a position where they are ready to meet this with Fire And Fury . The last point youve raised is particularly important. The idea that you cannot make threats if you are not prepared to follow them through, as people sometimes say in this part of the world, you shouldnt pull it done during a fight unless you are prepared to pull the trigger a gun. It is not clear what Military Action donald trump could take in this case. He has even received criticism from some republicans, including senator john mccain. He talked about precisely this point, the idea that other great leaders that he has seen have not threatened to do things u nless have not threatened to do things unless they are in a position to act. And in john unless they are in a position to act. And injohn mccains opinion, President Trump is not in a position to act right now. Thank you for your time. What really drives you around the bend. We havent got time, dan from people who dont say thank you or ignore you in favour of their Mobile Phones to inconsiderate drivers and queue jumpers, comedian Danny Wallace believes rudeness is getting worse. Hell be on our sofa later on this morning. But first, weve been chatting to people in manchester about what sort of rude behaviour drives them mad. What do you think is rude . What rivals you . Language. Strong language in public. Rivals you . Language. Strong language in publiclj rivals you . Language. Strong language in public. I was in my shop this morning. The person in front of me was obviously in a rush, and he made a loud sound. He was really rude. Sometimes i let it go. What makes the difference . It depends how big they are. It annoys me when people interrupted. When people put their feet people interrupted. When people put theirfeet on people interrupted. When people put their feet on the seat. When people dont text back. When they dont write back at all, or they write a short message, like k. Bad driving. In what way . Cutting you off and stuff like that. When you are in the Supermarket Queue and the assistants are dealing with each other instead of dealing with you. Do you find the general members of the public really rude . They are generally all right there are some very good points made there. Joanne says one of her pet peeveis there. Joanne says one of her pet peeve is queue jumping, there. Joanne says one of her pet peeve is queuejumping, it dries her insane. In britain, you dont tend to tell people that they have jumped in front. Used you in your pot, rather than saying, hang on, get to the back of the queue. Rather than saying, hang on, get to the back of the queuelj rather than saying, hang on, get to the back of the queue. I do both, i stew and tell. Martin says cars at a Zebra Crossing have repeatedly ignored him, they drove on by. Amy says her main gripe is feet on seats on a train, and also bags on seats when you know someone is trying to sit there. Look at the fury. Your rucksack is in my seat, that is the answer. |j at the fury. Your rucksack is in my seat, that is the answer. I can see you will be venting your frustration through this morning. Time now for the news, travel and weather where you are. Good morning from Bbc London News, im claudia liza armah. A man, believed to be a teenager, has been stabbed to death in croydon.

A Plumbing Company has been given permission to appeal to the Supreme Court after losing a legal case over the status of one of its workers. Pimlico plumbers lost a long running case in the court of appeal, which upheld that one of its staff was a worker rather than a self employed contractor. Meaning he should be entitled to rights such as holiday pay. Musicians are getting the chance to audition for a licence to busk on the london underground. Applicants will have to impress a panel of expertjudges from the music industry. Successful candidates will be allowed to entertain the thousands of commuters who use the tube daily. Its how the likes of ed sheeran and bob geldof started their careers. Lets have a look at the Travel Situation now. The waterloo city line is partially suspended, but other lines are looking good. 0n the trains there are delays of up to 20 minutes at Waterloo Becase of the engineering works. And of course there is a special timetable there because of that upgrade. 0n the roads in Brixton Stockwell road is closed off near to the academy after a man was found injured in the road.

Hello, this is breakfast with dan walker and naga munchetty. The latest news and sport is coming up. Also on breakfast this morning ten years on from the start of the Global Financial crisis, well look back at how it all began and ask if it could ever happen again. Well also hear how the stunning Natural Beauty of skye is attracting so many tourists. Now the island is struggling to cope. And well reflect on the life of the original Rhinestone Cowboy, the legendary Country Music star Glen Campbell, whos died at the age of 81. But now a summary of this mornings main news. Tensions between the us and north korea have reached new heights. North korea has said it is considering carrying out Missile Strikes on the us Pacific Territory Of Guam. The report in state media, quoting an earlier Military Statement, came hours after President Donald Trump threatened north korea with Fire And Fury. The exchanges mark a sharp rise in rhetoric between the two countries. North korea best not make any more threats to the united states. They will be met with Fire And Fury like the world has never seen. He has been very threatening, eon the normal state, and as i say they will be met with fire, furia and frankly power the likes of which this world has never seen before. Fury. The nhs is aiming to bring about the biggest ever expansion to its medical workforce in england, after Health Officials confirmed plans to increase Training Positions for doctors and other frontline staff. The Department Of Health has confirmed that an extra 1,500 doctors a year will be trained by 2020, boosting numbers by a quarter. The move aims to increase the amount of home grown doctors and reduce how much is spent on agency and locum doctors. Its exactly ten years today since the start of the financial crisis. It started with a warning from french bank bnp paribas about us Housing Loans and ended with a global Credit Crunch, as governments around the world propped up banks that otherwise would have collapsed. Here, banks including Royal Bank Of Scotland and lloyds tsb had to be rescued with billions in taxpayers money. Childrens services are being pushed to Breaking Point, due to increased demand and cuts in Council Budgets, according to the local government association. It says three quarters of English Councils overspent on child social ca re Councils Overspent On Child Social Care i about half £1 billion last year. A government spokesman said councils would receive around 200 billion pounds for local services up to 2020. The lga says its not enough. Councils are facing a double whammy. A big cut in Government Grants and a big increase in the number of children who need those services and so we are saying there will be a £2 billion gap by the end of this decade in the amount of Money Councils need compared to the amount of Money Councils have got. That will lead to big problems in making sure we can keep children safe on the way the members of the public would expect us to. Tributes are being paid to one of the most successful american singers, Glen Campbell, whos died six years after revealing that he had alzheimers disease. He was 81. I hear you singing in the wire i can hear you through the. Beautiful song. As a Session Musician, Glen Campbell played on hundreds of recordings before his career as a singer took off. He was best known for hits including Rhinestone Cowboy and Wichita Lineman. Dolly parton said he had one of the greatest voices of all time. Yes, lovely tribute this morning and many pictures of Glen Campbell on the front pages of many of the papers and also on the back pages lots of talk about the World Championship athletics. We can cross to London Stadium. Jessica is there. The hind you is the podium and one of the men who could have been on their yesterday, the big stories he wasnt to race at all. Exactly. A fascinating day yesterday. Thats exactly why i am at the podium. Wayde van niekerk will receive his medalfor the at the podium. Wayde van niekerk will receive his medal for the 400 metres the night before the start of the evening, but you have to ask, like you say, what could have been had Isaac Makwala actually been in the race . Yesterday these championships were dominated by debate and discussion about whether the botswana athlete should be allowed to compete in the 400 metres. As youve all been hearing this morning on breakfast, he wasnt allowed to take part, despite arriving at the stadium ahead of the race. Isaac makwala was affected by a stomach bug and withdrawn from the race by the iaaf. Public Health England guidelines recommended people with that illness should be quarantined for 48 hours. Makwala was believed to have been one of the athletes who could have mounted a serious challenge in the race to south africas Wayde Van Niekerk. But in his absence, the olympic champion and world record holder came through to comfortably take gold and retain his title. And van niekerk had sympathy for his rival. It is quite disappointing. I would love him to have his fair opportunity. He was in great form. I believe it would have he would have done very well this championships and, like i said earlier, ive got so much sympathy for him. I really wish i could even give him his medal. British team captain eilidh doyle will have the chance to win a medal. She qualified for thursdays 400 metre hurdles final as one of the fastest losers afterfinishing third in her semi final. And it was a good night for Dina Asher Smith in the stadium where she was a Kit Bag Holder at the 2012 olympics. Amazing story. She qualified for the semi finals of the 200 metres in a seasons best time. Shes had a difficult year fitness wise after breaking her foot in february. Bianca williams also made the semi finals. Lets bring you up to date with the rest of the sport. Manchester united were beaten 2 1 by european champions real madrid in last nights super cup. Real took a deserved 2 0 lead early into the second half and, although Romelu Lukaku pulled a goal back for united, they couldnt stop the spanish side lifting the super cup for a fourth time. Sometimes when i win i dont keep the medals. So imagine when i lose you know . For me, the medal would go to some place in my house and for that kid it is the moon. For that kid it is for sure something that will keep and remember. The womens Rugby World Cup gets under way in ireland today. Defending champions england will be hoping for a win against spain in their opening fixture, the hosts take on australia while wales face a tough task against new zealand. To start the world cup against new zealand is bubbly the best position we can key in the showcase ourselves. They are the second best in the world, but as youve seen recently they have been beaten. They we re recently they have been beaten. They were beaten in last world cup i island. Citing the prep weve put in and the buildup weve had coming up to this world cup, we are really cool place. Now of course the athletes here at the championships have been taking centre stage, but theres someone whos been trying to get into the limelight. Hero the hedgehog, the official mascot here, has been causing a bit of a stir with his antics. Hes been keeping the crowds entertained during the sessions and he seems to fancy himself as a bit of an athlete. I think hes got a bit of work to do around his hurdles technique, though. That looks a little bit painful. 0w did you see this last night . I think eve ryo ne did you see this last night . I think everyone was covering their eyes with their hands marks for artistic effort. Thank you very much. We will be there later and we will also speak to Kyle La Ngford and we will also speak to Kyle Langford and others as well. Weve been talking about how close the margins have been for great britains athletes, just missing out on the podium. But they are trying their best. I think six to eight medals was the plan and currently we are at one. You heard jessica talk about Isaac Makwala, who wasnt allowed to compete in the 400 metres final after a suspected outbreak of nora virus. Lets discuss this with graeme close whos a Sport Nutrition Specialist from the university of liverpool. You can understand athletes anger over this and frustration, because they train to do their best to get a place on the podium. But why has this caused so much controversy when basically the medics think to be following the advice of Public Health england . Exactly, people are trained for four years for this one event and then it is taken away. But what we cant take our mind away from is the nora virus is one of the most contagious viruses and its not just a problem for the virus, but its a Public Health issue norovirus. These people are on a ina norovirus. These people are on a in a packed stadium. Youve got to respect the decision of the medics who have done it in the interests of everybody. Explain medically, it can spread quickly, cant it . Everybody. Explain medically, it can spread quickly, cant it . It is commonly known as the winter vomiting bug. I am sure many people have had it. It is why if you do get it you are advised not to go to the gp, because you dont want to spread it. Within the elite sports i work with we do quarantine our athletes ourselves if we get somebody like that, just to make sure it doesnt spread. Because it is mainly spread by Hand To Mouth contact which athletes do a of. But also being in close proximity to people. So its not necessarily airborne, but water particles, if you are in close box and key. So if you are actively still ill it can be a really nasty bug to spread quickly. How long are you in quarantine for . We would typically quarantine people for 24 48 hours after the symptoms cease. Thats a key thing to separate them and give it time to go away. What we do know is how will you will actually still be infecting people once the symptoms have gone. So at that point we really need to increase our hygiene standards. Interesting that from Isaac Makwalas perspective, to his mind and for the team he was ready to race and then youve got the pictures of him being turned away and told, no, you cant come in here. We had a genuine chance for the gold medal. I think thats what has brought into public perception. Absolutely. As i keep saying, its a Public Health issue and i think what the iaaf have done is taken advice from Public Health england, where the advice was to quarantine 48 hours following the symptoms. Youve got to remember, this comes from faecal to mouth contact. Research suggests that up to 60 off men and 40 of girls dont wash their hands after going to the toilet and of them who do only 5 wash their hands properly. With soap and water, vigorously. Its not hard to see how this spread quickly. We all rely on this spread quickly. We all rely on this Hand Sanitisers and gels and they arent really that effective. So they dont kill Something Like norovirus . No. Soap and water, 15 seconds vigorously and a good try at the end. Not the old Robberjohn H Illcoat the end. Not the old robberjohn hillcoat and off we go. And a lot of sports teams, is Something Like this has happened, then we go to and a no handshake policy. Knuckles . You might try the odd fist pump, if you are young and trendy like me. But then we want to try to stop that spreading and quarantine is definitely the best way to do it. Its definitely the best way to do it. Its just really unfortunate that we train forfour years your its just really unfortunate that we train for four years your chance of a medal is taken away so cruelly, but probably rightly. You wash your hands well, dont you . Lovely having you on the show. The remainder when Robbie Williams got in all sorts of trouble on new years eve when he went through the crowds and shook the hands of people, on bbc, and then he was seen on camera putting Hand Sanitiser on before he went to carry on. Sensible it is hard not to win in that circumstance. Thats exactly what we would advise elite athletes to do. They are compromised with their immunity a nyway compromised with their immunity anyway when they are training hard. So weve got to do everything we can to close that window. Thank you very much. Let us know what is it about that. Im off to wash my hands good morning. This morning in the north of your country theres a lot of sunshine around. In theres a lot of sunshine around. In the south it different story. Some heavy rain around. It has fallen through the night. Yesterday we had large rainfall totals. You can sit in many parts of england, wales and the channel islands, but not the south east. It will brighten up temporarily. This Weather Front is sinking south eastwards and as temperatures rise the showers will develop. Some of those will be heavy. High pressure in charge of the rest of the uk, keeping things fine and settled. This is the rain sinking south. Cloud for england and wales. Into scotland and Northern Ireland we have a fine start to the day, with some sunshine. Sunshine across north west england. Heading into yorkshire and lincolnshire and towards manchester, the midlands, down towards the south west, thats where weve got the Weather Front and ouraim. Cloud in wales where weve got the Weather Front and our aim. Cloud in wales with a few showers. The head of it we have a largely dry start ahead of it. But we will have Sunshine Develop and break through the cloud of through the morning, but it wont last. The rainfall moves southwards and we have further showers developing. The two merge and we have heavy and thundery downpours. It will brighten up in south west england, wales, Northern England and we hang on the sunshine across scotla nd we hang on the sunshine across scotland and Northern Ireland. Light breeze. 21 in glasgow, 19 in belfast. If youre stuck under the cloud and rain some of us wont even get into high double figures. London about 18. Thats pretty disappointing for the time of year. We are looking at heavy rain and showers urging for east anglia and South East England. That could lead toissues South East England. That could lead to issues later in the day, with Surface Water Flooding. So to issues later in the day, with surface waterflooding. So be to issues later in the day, with Surface Water Flooding. So be aware of it. 0vernight this is the Weather Front continuing to drift to the south eastern corner. Fragmenting as it does so. Behind it a lot of dry weather, Cloud Thickening in the north of scotland and not especially cold. Cooler in rural areas. Where we have late rain there could be mist and fog forming. Tomorrow we lose the front through the day. High pressure establishes itself temporarily and then weve got this set of fronts coming across the north of scotland, which will introduce bigger cloud and eventually we have rain. The rain in the south east clears away and turns more showery and then we have a fine and dry day for most of the uk, with some sunshine. After all the sunshine in the north today there will be more cloud tomorrow and After The Rain in england and wales Yesterday And Today we have a dry day with sunshine and higher temperatures. We love a bit of old money every now and then. Its ten years to the day since a key event that most experts think marked the start of the Global Financial crisis. Stephs taking a look at what lessons have been learned and whether it could happen again. Yes, its a birthday that many would like to forget. 0n 9 august, 2007, the french bank bnp paribas stopped investors taking money out of some of its funds. Us banks had been giving out high risk loans to people with poor Credit Histories. They were packaged up into complex products and sold to investors around the world. When the economy took a downturn, banks were unsure how many bad loans could be on their rivals books and stopped lending to them. The Financial System froze. Here in the uk, Bradford Bingley and Northern Rock had to be rescued. And Royal Bank Of Scotland and lloyds tsb received billions of pounds of taxpayers money. Authorities around the world pumped billions of pounds into the Global Financial system to keep it afloat. And here, the Bank Of England slashed Interest Rates from nearly 6 to just a half. Since the crisis financial, authorities have toughened up the rules for banks. They have to hold more capital for emergencies and theyve been forced to tighten up their Lending Rules. But the big question is, 10 years on, have we learned the lessons and could it happen again . Tom stevenson is from the Financial Firm fidelity international. Can you remember what you are doing ten yea rs can you remember what you are doing ten years ago . Yes, i was on holiday, in america, i was enjoying the fact that the pound was doing so well. Interest rates were about five and three quarters at the time, it was a completely different world. When things started to unfold, it just showed. It was a real mess . Yes, it was. Authorities stepped in and took some extraordinary measures. The most important of those was slashing Interest Rates to zero. At the time, everyone thought, these are emergency measures. This will be short lived. Interest rates will be short lived. Interest rates will go back to normal levels quite quickly. But we are ten years on and Interest Rates are still at a 300 year low. Yes, we have been wondering when they will get back to normal. Why has it not gone back up yet . We talked about what lessons have been learned, in some ways, we have not learned, in some ways, we have not learned any lessons. We remain pretty highly in debt. It is difficult to raise Interest Rates because households simply cannot cope with higher Interest Rates. Low Interest Rates have been fantastic. If you have been lucky enough to own a property or stocks and shares, it may have made you look back and say, what crisis . But if you dont have a property or some stocks and shares, your wages have been flat, it is a very different balance. The last ten yea rs has very different balance. The last ten years has been very divisive between those who have and those who have not. We were talking about how the rules have changed, one being the fa ct rules have changed, one being the fact that the banks have to have more capital. Could we see a situation where banks have to be railed out again . Banks are in better shape than they were. They are not sitting on toxic debt that you mention. That is the good thing. The bad thing is, what i mentioned, we are still very heavily indebted. The Bank Of England says it is concerned about car loans. People are borrowing a lot of money to purchase a car, but we are still addicted to debt. If you look at personal debt, it is still incredibly high. Still in the trillions. Much too high in household and government terms. When we talk about deficit reduction, the debt owed by the government is still very high, higher than it was. Thank you very much for your time.

Suzanne kianpour, bbc news, washington. 500 new medical School Places will be made available in england next year, as the government attempts to boost the number of home grown doctors in the nhs. The target is to increase the total number of Training Places by a quarter by 2020, to help ease staffing pressures. The British Medical Association says it wont address the immediate shortage of medics. Jessica parker reports. More doctors, home grown. The government has given more detail today on what it says will be the biggest ever expansion of the medical workforce in england. What were doing is ensuring that we train enough home grown doctors so the nhs becomes self sufficient in doctors over the period of the next ten years or so. And we think that thats the best way to ensure that weve got the doctors we need for the future. Next year, an extra 500 medical School Places will be made available. By 2020, that number will grow to 1,500, reprsenting a 25 increase in yearly intake over all. And Medical Schools will have to win many of those extra places by showing that they can get graduates to work in rural or coastal areas, where recruitments more of a struggle, and by bringing in trainees from diverse and disadvantaged backgrounds. We welcome the governments approach, looking at how they can get more people from poorer backgrounds to study medicine. It is something which the bma has been talking about for many years but there are lots of questions about how these medical School Places are going to be funded and how the government is going to tackle the immediate recruitment and retention crisis of doctors in the nhs. This is all part of wider plans to create thousands more Training Places for nurses, midwives and health professionals. The labour party says it doesnt add up to any significant new investment. But, ultimately, it will be patients who decide whether this extra dose of doctors proves to be an effective medicine. Jessica parker, bbc news. Well be speaking to a Health Minister about those new targets in a few minutes. Five men facing criminal charges over the Hillsborough Disaster are due in court later today. Three of them are accused of trying to cover up what happened in 1989. The Police Match Commander on the day, former chief superintendent David Duckenfield, wont be in the dock. 0ur reporter Ben Schofield has more on this. Why wont David Duckenfield be in court today . It is just over one months in the Crown Prosecution Service said they would charge six individuals with various offences relating to the Hillsborough Disaster. David duckenfield faces the most serious set of charges. 95 individual counts of manslaughter. But prosecutors need to apply to the high court to lift and ordered dani king from being prosecuted before they can proceed with that case. Who are the other five men . They include graham mackrell, who was the Safety Officer and secretary of Sheffield Wednesday Football Club at the time of the disaster. He is facing allegations that he breached health and safety legislation. He and David Duckenfield are the only two men letting charges relating to the disaster itself. Then as you said there are three men, two former Police Officers and a retired lawyer facing charges of perverting the course of justice. Fifth facing charges of perverting the Course Ofjustice. Fifth man we are expecting in the court today is sir norman bettison, a former chief co nsta ble. Norman bettison, a former chief constable. He ran both the merseyside and west Yorkshire Police forces and hes facing allegations of misconduct in a public office. It is expected to be relatively short hearing this afternoon, but nevertheless a significant step as these cases progress 28 years after these cases progress 28 years after the disaster itself.

Athletics chiefs have been criticised for denying a medal favourite entry to the London Stadium amid concerns over an outbreak of norovirus. Around 30 athletes and support staff have been affected by sickness at the World Championships, but only botswanas Isaac Makwala has been prevented from competing, as andy swiss reports. As Wayde Van Niekerk charged to the 400 metres title, the first gold of a potential double at these championships, much of the focus was still on his absent challenger. Isaac makwala was told he couldnt compete after his sickness because organisers had to protect the welfare of the athletes. But his botswanan team were left frustrated. We respect the decision if it is based on Public Health issues, however, it is the manner in which this decision was arrived at which is quite disturbing and, as we have indicated, this matter has been approached in dribs and drabs. We feel very sorry for the athletes that have to be withdrawn from the competition, but we have a responsibility for all of the athletes and if we allowed them all to sit, its a tight community, we need to make sure that all of the athletes are protected as well. Meanwhile, britains medal near misses continue, despite the performance of Kyle Langfords life. First place just eluding him in the 800 metres by an agonising 400ths of a second. And among todays highlights is the return of mo farah, as he goes in the heats of the 5,000 metres. He is still the british teams only medallist here and its now halfway through the championships. More on that throughout the morning. Jessica is doing the sport live from the London Stadium on day six of the championships. Tributes have been paid to the American Country music star Glen Campbell, whos died after what his family called a Long And Courageous Battle with alzheimers. He was 81. Dolly parton said he had one of the greatest voices of all time. He was famous for hits including Rhinestone Cowboy and Wichita Lineman. 0ur arts correspondent David Sillito looks back on his life. I am a lineman for the county. Wichita lineman, its wide open spaces, yearning, loneliness, america turned into song. But what truly made it a masterpiece was the voice of Glen Campbell. I hear you singing in the wires. He had been born in billstown, arkansas, a large poor family of cotton pickers. His escape was his uncle boo, who taught him to play guitar. Little baby, how i love you. He could play anything and ended up singing on tv shows and on hundreds of singles with the Session Musicians the wrecking crew, phil spektor songs, the righteous brothers, frank sinatra, it was Glenn Campbell on guitar. And eventually, a Breakthrough Hit of his own. Rivers flowing gentle on my mind. But it was the partnership with Songwriterjimmy Webb that gave him his career defining songs by the time we get to phoenix. Galveston, Wichita Lineman. Clean cut, conservative, he was suddenly Country Musics biggest star, with his own tv show. I have someone who needs me someone ive needed so long. But im going to be where the lights are shining on me. Rhinestone cowboy was a glorious return to form after a dip in his fortunes that had taken place in the 705. But his personal life was farfrom glorious. I think i probablyjust quit letting god run my life and i actuallyjust got into the drugs and the booze pretty heavy. I am a lineman for the county, and i. What . Drive. Drive the main roads. That slight stumble over the words, it was the beginning of alzheimers. And the Wichita Lineman. Hed long put his wild days behind him, but memories were fading. Still on the line. What stayed with him when so much else had gone was the music. The songs of Glenn Campbell. We will be one of the many buying one of his albums today. We sold over 40 million records in his career. Nine number one songs. Just hearing his voice at the end, that you the full tone. Thats pretty up to date with one of our main story this morning. Lets bring you. The nhs in england says its aiming for what it calls the biggest ever expansion of its workforce, by training an extra 1,500 home grown doctors a year by 2020. There will also be additional Training Places for nurses, midwives and other health professionals. Well discuss the plans with Health Minister philip dunne ina minute, but first lets get reaction from someone who works in the nhs. We have a former British Medical Association representative. Your reaction to this confirmation of these numbers, how was it going to work in practice . We all welcome changes like this, but what we are most concerned about is how late this is. We are looking at about eight years. If we implement the changes in the next 12 months it will take five years for a medical student to be trained to become a junior topped up and spent two years to become a Junior Doctor Junior Doctor. The other concern i have is we have an all time low of college stu d e nts we have an all time low of College Students applying for medicine for the first time ever. St george is university in london was clearing places for medicine and those are the questions i have the most concerns about. There is a concern about home grown doctors and nurses coming through and thats where you see the problem . Absolutely and its not 35 . We have about 7500 new medical students every year. Of course 20 of that is 1500, so its not 25 . The number of vacancies for medics in the uk is about 50,000. We have massive amounts of vacancies. How is 1500 new doctors from the year 2023, 2024 going to address that . What would you want to ask the Health Minister now in terms of making a difference to your life as a Junior Doctor . One of the biggest concerns we have in paediatrics is retention of current trainees. Recruitment of current trainees. For the first year the Royal College of paediatric soprano second round of interviews for paediatric cases because not enough people were recruited in the first round. How are we going to address that with moreJunior Doctors are we going to address that with more Junior Doctors feeling like they cant cope with the gaps we cant feel . They cant cope with the gaps we cant feel . Thank you very much. We will be putting some of those questions to the Health Minister, philip don. The first point that was made, on the issue of what youre going to do to address the immediate crisis, training these new doctors, we wont see them in service for eight years . Dunn. We wont see them in service for eight years . Dunn. We are committing today to what we said we would do before the general election, to increase the number of home grown, trained doc is by 25 over the coming years. We recognise there are pressures on doctors and on the Health Service system, that is why weve been increasing the number of doc is since 2012. Today, there are some 11,000 more doctors than 12,000 more nurses. There are some Pressure Points however. Doctors. This will not happen tomorrow, doctor patel is right about that. It will take some time. We have to manage pressures in certain areas. On the issue of repayment, do you know how much it costs to train doctor . £230,000. Is itafairargument costs to train doctor . £230,000. Is it a fair argument to say that there should be tighter nhs contracts, so that when you spend that money on training a doctor, it is easierfor the doctor to stay in the nhs, and it isa the doctor to stay in the nhs, and it is a benefit to the nhs by keeping those members of staff in jobs . Bout was something we did consult on over the three months from march june. Consult on over the three months from march june. We are not yet announcing the response. We think we need to do some more work. It is a very complex issue. We are asking Health Education england to do some work on mount to see how we can balance the competing demands for the individual doctors on amounts. There ask you about the issue with rotor gaps . Raised by our junior doc is. The difficulty of those who feel that they are not able to do the job they wanted to do. They went into medicine to do these jobs, but there are not enough staff and not enough hours . The pressures on the system are acknowledged, the particular pressures in certain errors, such as emergency. Pressures in certain errors, such as emergency you are not specifically addressing the issues they are raising. The Junior Doctors raised a lot of issues last year, a lot of those were about the Worklife Alan and the pressures on two new doctors. We have got 11,800 more doctors. We have got 11,800 more doctors than we have in 2010, so there are more doctors coming into there are more doctors coming into the system right now. We have a new cohort that began only at the beginning of this month. A new Academic Year has meant moreJunior Doctors are coming into the system. Todays announcement is focused on the future and how we can ensure that this country becomes more self sufficient in training our own doctors. That is why we are adding an additional 1500 races to be current places that we have been funding in recent years. We will be producing seven and a half thousand new doctors each year. Producing seven and a half thousand new doctors each Yearlj Producing Seven And A Half thousand new doctors each year. I understand you are saying this is good news today, but on one more issue, nursing. Janet davies, the general secretary of the Royal College of nursing, she said, the government is turning off the tap. Nursing degree applications have fallen sharply in the take up is forcing many nurses out of a job that they love. There isa out of a job that they love. There is a lack of funding for those coming in, and forthose is a lack of funding for those coming in, and for those already in it. How are you addressing that . We have committed to funding the clinical placements for an additional 10,000 nurses starting from this current autumn. That is an Immediate Response to that challenge. As i said, there are over 12 one half thousand more nurses on our wards today than there were in 2010. What we are looking to do is to continue to increase the flow of nurses into the system. We have got 52,000 more nurses than we have ever had before. That covers a number of specialties, including midwives. We are trying to address more people getting into the nhs, and todays announcement is another component to that. Wanki for your kind this morning. And your reaction to that . Lam morning. And your reaction to that . I am really struggling to understand where this is coming from. Making it simple, if you turn up to work one day and i told you there were none of you for the entire week and the cameraman has gone, just do your best. That is the kind of rotor gap we are talking about. The minister is saying they are bringing in staff this autumn and working to bring in more. This autumn and working to bring in more. It is too late. In paediatrics, we have seen too impatient to make 2 Inpatient Units closed and a whole lot of other units closed as well. We have seena other units closed as well. We have seen a 25 increase of admissions. We are getting more work and demand, but less staff than ever. There are 11,000 new doctors, we have got 49,000. 5 graduating every year, but is not something new that they have done. Will heres carol with a look at this mornings weather. Mixed fortunes today. In the north, it is fine, in the south, heavy rain and showers developing through the day. A Weather Front draped across england and wales. Showers in the channel islands, some dry conditions in the south east. Dry across much of the rest of the uk. I pressure is exerting its influence. This Weather Front producing the rain at the moment will sink towards the south east, merge with some showers, south east, merge with some showers, so later we will see some heavy downpours. Drifting off, we are already in some sunshine. Hanging on to that through the day. A Beautiful Day across scotland and Northern Ireland. A few showers in the highlands at the moment.

This evening and overnight, that Weather Front continues to drift towards the south east. Where we have had some late rain, we could see patchy mist and fog. Away from that, dry weather. Clouding over in the far north of the head of our next set of Weather Fronts. Those fronts are attached to this area of low pressure. I pressure exerting its influence across most of the uk.

A week feature by the time it gets into the south east. And saturday and sunday looking quite nice. Marvellous. With its rugged mountains and pristine lochs, its no surprise that the isle of skye attracts large numbers of tourists. But the island has become so popular its services are struggling to cope with the numbers. James shaw is there for us this morning. What is the problem . Too much of a good thing . It looks beautiful and tranquil, you can see the houses along the harbour. This is the main town in the sky. You can see the hill behind me, that is where the Highland Games are going to take place. The busiest day of the year on this island. The population will probably double or more. It starts to give you a sense ofjust how much pressured areas on the infrastructure and services of this beautiful island. Skye has a unique and stunning combination of rivers, mountains and sea lochs, but now its under increasing pressure from drive through tourism. Some of skyes most stunning locations are victims of their own success, suffering increasing road and path erosion. But, still, visitors are drawn to them. What do you think of what youve seen so far . Its beautiful. I mean, just the landscape is amazing. The colours are beautiful. Something you dont see anywhere else. Yeah, its been lovely and everything is beautiful, but there are so many tourists that there isnt the infrastructure to deal with that, unless they manage it in some way. I fear that the prettiness will be damaged by all of us trudging through. I didnt imagine so many people, but, yeah, we were quite surprised by that. You know, you have the vast landscape you can walk and have the space, so, yeah. Not so much space on skyes singletrack roads. Incidents like this are surprisingly common. And more people are coming to skye because theyve seen it on film. The problem at the moment is the car parking, disposal of waste, and, you know, people come to where the films were made, jump out of the car or the coach, take a quick picture and gone again. And, you know, its nothing coming into the island economy from some of these Big Companies. Who wouldnt want to come to skye to be so surrounded by Natural Beauty like this . Its clear that pressures are growing and some on the island believe that there need to be solutions sooner rather than later. Well, the biggest challenge over singletrack roads. Shirley runs one of skyes most famous restaurants. Shes also setting up an organisation which will pitch for Government Grants to improve the islands infrastructure. We need the Scottish Government to get right behind tourism, which is now recognised as being a Major Economic driver for the country of scotland. We need to get them onside and perhaps supporting us with extra funding for the development of tourism as an industry. Other people suggest a tourism tax, or even making all or part of the island a national park. But the consensus is that there should be action soon. What but the consensus is that there should be action soon. What is but the consensus is that there should be action soon. What is the but the consensus is that there should be action soon. What is the answer . We but the consensus is that there should be action soon. We heard but the consensus is that there should be action soon.

Could there be a tourism tax to but the consensus is that there should be action soon. There. Could there be a tourism tax to help protect the infrastructure . Probably the Scottish Government would not be in favour of that. There could be a fund that might help again with that infrastructure. These are all options to consider. If you see me hitting myself, dont worry, its just the if you see me hitting myself, dont worry, itsjust the midges, they are worry, itsjust the midges, they a re really bad worry, itsjust the midges, they are really bad today. We can actually see them all over the camera you have done very well. It just makes you want to get rid of them. Thank you very much. Thank you for all your comments on the issue of rudeness. We have set the Brea Kfast Twitter of rudeness. We have set the breakfast twitter and social media account alight with what you think is very annoying. Lots to talk about later on. Time now to get the news, travel and weather where you are. Good morning from Bbc London News, im claudia liza armah. A man, believed to be a teenager, has been stabbed to death in croydon. Police were called to georgia road in Thornthon Heath at around 11 o clock last night. He died there an hour later.

Successful candidates will be allowed to entertain the thousands of commuters who use the tube daily. Its how the likes of ed sheeran and bob geldof started their careers.

The Northern Line and dlr are unaffected. 0n the trains there are delays of up to 20 minutes at Waterloo Becase of the engineering works. And of course there is a special timetable there because of that upgrade. 0n the roads in Brixton Stockwell road is closed off near to the academy after a man was found injured in the road. In the city the a1 is closed southbound at the barbican thats because of roadworks. Lets have a check on the weather now with kate kinsella. Good morning. If you were lucky enough not to get the rain yesterday, it is likely you will see today. Heavy rain on the way, the met office has another yellow Weather Warning in place. We could see quite a lot of rain in a short space of time. That will cause some problems on roads. The south east, that Rain Pushing South, the brighter the colours the heavier the rain. Potentially quite a wet and chilly afternoon as a northerly wind starts to strengthen. Feeling the chill. The maximum temperature around 17 degrees. Still some outbreaks as we head into the evening and overnight. It is gradually starting to slip away south and east. Clearing the further north and west you are. Minimum temperatures between 11 13. A bright start where the rain has cleared, some sunny spots. Some cloud and patchy rain at first, the further south and east you are, but on the whole its an improving picture. The wind that bit lighter and sunny spells, temperatures up to 21 degrees tomorrow. Friday, a similar scenario. Some showers around, a fair amount of cloud. Rather changeable and unsettled as we head into the weekend. I will be back with more in about half an hour. See you soon. Take care. Hello, this is breakfast, with dan walker and naga munchetty. The main stories tensions between the us and north korea have reached new heights. North korea says it is considering carrying out Missile Strikes on the us territory of guam. And earlier Military Statement came out after north korea threatened america with action. North korea best not make any more threats to the united states. They will be met with Fire And Fury like the world has never seen. He has been very threatening, beyond a normal state, and as i said they will be met with fire, fury and frankly power the likes of which this world has never seen before. 500 new medical School Places will be made available in england next year, as the government attempts to boost the number of home grown doctors in the nhs. The target is to increase the total number of Training Places by a quarter by 2020, to help ease staffing pressures. The British Medical Association says it wont address the immediate shortage of medics. Earlier the Health Minister philip dunn admitted there are Pressure Points on nhs services. We recognise there are pressures on doctors, on there are pressures on doctors, on the Health Service system, and thats why weve been increasing the number of doctors working in the Health Service since 2012. Today there are some 11,800 more doctors than in 2010, some 12,500 more nurses. There are some Pressure Points in certain specialties and pa rt points in certain specialties and part of the announcement today is to make sure that we recruit into specialties where there are shortages. Weve had a massive response to that interview. 0ne says, husband just turned off the tv, shouting over that interview. Paul says, my daughter has just finished her first year as a nurse. So many have pulled out of the course as they cant afford to live. Tanya says her daughter has four a stars but no Medical School offers. She is desperate to be a doctor. Thanks for getting in touch. The latest in the world of business now. Good morning it is kind of a birthday you dont wa nt to it is kind of a birthday you dont want to remember. Like you say, it has flown by. Good morning. Bank started giving out high risk loans to people with pure Credit Histories and we know how much these loans would be worth and whether they could pay it back. So the Financial System is frozen and Interest Rates we re system is frozen and Interest Rates were slashed. 0f system is frozen and Interest Rates were slashed. Of course they are still at that historical low. Even we are an economy still largely built on debt, people are wondering if we have learnt anything at all. We will talk more about this in about 30 minutes. People are being warned about a scam involving those delivery cards. You know when you miss your post and you get a card saying the Caller Number or go and collect your parcel. Apparently fake cards are posted to people, which look like official royal mail ones, and they ask you to call a number in order to retrieve your post. But what victims are finding out is they are actually being charged £45 for that call. So watch out and make sure it is legitimate when you get one of those. And a story on parking. This is something we only really wa nt parking. This is something we only really want to pay cash for, apparently. Apparently seven out of ten drivers will avoid parking in places that require payment by phone. They say motorists prefer to pay by cash, even if the metre doesnt give change. The aa says many are put off by Administration Fees and voice controlled payment systems. I am a bit like that. Same. Youre thinking, did it really works . You dont trust it. Youve got to get up to date with a modern times. I am amazed i am the one saying this, but it does work and it remembers your car, gives you and it remembers your car, gives you an option. Nah. I an option. Nah. Ilike an option. Nah. I like getting a ticket out of and putting their cash in. Tributes are being paid to one of the most successful american singers, Glen Campbell, whos died six years after revealing that he had alzheimers disease. He was 81. I hear you singing in the wire i can hear you through the. A wonderful voice. As a Session Musician, Glen Campbell played on hundreds of recordings before his career as a singer took off. He was best known for hits including Rhinestone Cowboy and Wichita Lineman. Dolly parton said he had one of the greatest voices of all time. A few months ago Glen Campbells daughter told us his father wanted to carry on making music as long as he could. He said, i feelfine, to carry on making music as long as he could. He said, ifeelfine, he literally said that, and i want to keep doing what i love, i want to keep doing what i love, i want to keep touring, and i love performing for people. So he said he was going to do it as long as he could. Coming up on the programme carol will be here with the weather. Thats in about six or seven minutes. Time to catch up with whats been happening notjust at the world athletics championships but in the sport. Jessica is at the London Stadium for the sixth day of the World Championships. Good morning. It was meant to be the mens 400 metres final last night, one of the most eagerly anticipated races of the world athletics championships, billed as one of the highlights of the entire competition. Actually it was very much overshadowed by all of this talk and discussion around the Botswa Na Talk and discussion around the botswana athlete Isaac Makwala and whether he would be allowed to compete in the final. As youve been hearing most of this morning, he wasnt allowed to take parts despite coming to the stadium ahead of the race. He was affected by a stomach and was withdrawn by the iaaf medical staff. Public Health England guidelines recommend people with such an illness should be quarantined for 48 hours. Makwala was believed to have been one of the athletes who could have mounted a serious challenge in the race to south africas Wayde Van Niekerk. But in his absence, the olympic champion and world record holder came through to comfortably take gold and retain his title. And van niekerk had sympathy for his rival. It is quite disappointing. I would love him to have his fair opportunity. He was in great form. I believe he would have done very, very well this championships and, like i said earlier, ive got so much sympathy for him. I really wish i could even give him my medal. Also last night, a thrilling performance from britains Kyle Langford in the 800 metres. The 21 year old missed out on a medal by 400ths of a second after a sprint for the line in the home straight. He qualified for the final as the slowest athlete in the field but came oh so close to winning a bronze medal. It is bittersweet because i knew in my head i wanted a medal coming into the night. I did the best i could. I finished strong. Just a bit gutted to be honest. It is so hard being so close to a medal. But i am 40 and the world now and im only 21, so hopefully down the years to come you will see me taking over that mo farah british team captain eilidh doyle will have the chance to win a medal. She qualified for thursdays 400 metre hurdles final as one of the fastest losers afterfinishing third in her semi final. And it was a good night for Dina Asher Smith in the stadium where she was a Kit Bag Holder at the 2012 olympics. She qualified for the semi finals of the 200 metres in a seasons best time. Shes had a difficult year fitness wise after breaking her foot in february. Bianca williams also made the semi finals. The womens Rugby World Cup gets under way in ireland today. Defending champions england will be hoping for a win against spain in their opening fixture, the hosts take on australia while wales face a tough task against new zealand. Weve come out here along with 11 other teams in the competition for the start of a brand new competition. Whats gone before has gone before and everyone is proud, but the slate is wiped clean and eve ryo ne but the slate is wiped clean and everyone is fighting and vying for that trophy come the end of the competition. Now of course the athletes here at the championships have been taking centre stage, but theres someone whos been trying to get into the limelight. Hero the hedgehog, the official mascot here, has been causing a bit of a stir with his antics. Theyve been keeping the crowds entertained. I think they fancy themselves as a bit of an athlete. Clearly got a bit of work to do around maybe their hurdles technique. Its technique. Its not the easiest thing to master. At least the cone was there to save him. We will be speaking to Kyle La Ngford him. We will be speaking to Kyle Langford a little bit later on and also laura weightman. Two of those who just missed out on medals at this championships. Theres a whole debate about whether or not we are doing well enough with the medals. 0ne the medals. One other thing, yesterday i took the kids to the Opening Ceremony of the kids to the Opening Ceremony of the special olympics. Absolutely brilliant. I know we will be there tomorrow on bbc breakfast to cover the four day event. It was a wonderful 0pening the four day event. It was a wonderful Opening Ceremony and the atmosphere was amazing. Ijust think with atmosphere was amazing. I just think with sport like this, so inspirational. Loss to look forward to on day six of the championship. Three gold medals are up championship. Three gold medals are upforgrabs including championship. Three gold medals are up for grabs including the shotput, the 400 metre hurdles and the womens 400 metres. Lets see whats in store. Britains Shara Proctor and jasmine soyuz will be looking to make the final in the long jump. Shara proctor won the silver in the 2015 World Championships and jasmine soyuzis World Championships and jasmine soyuz is a medallist from european championships. After gold and attend us it is, mo farah will start his campaign at the 5000 metres and he has won this event in the last five global championships. Great written have three men in the semis at this event, including danny tolbert, 21 year rolls who ran a lifetime best of 20. 16 seconds to qualifyjust behind reigning 0lympic of 20. 16 seconds to qualifyjust behind reigning olympic champion Wayde Van Niekerk. The briton is an else use and Mitchell Blake also made it through. American felix is seeking a second world title at this distance but in the semifinals the iranian athlete, 19, beat her and posted a new personal best and a National Record of 50. 08 seconds. If you want to keep up to date with the days action you can watch bbc two between 6 30pm and 10 30pm. All that to look forward to the day. 6 30pm on bbc two. With north korea saying its considering a Missile Strike on a us territory in the pacific and President Trump threatening pyongyang with fire and, fury tensions between the two countries have reached new heights. Lets get some reaction from south korea. The journalist alex jensen joins us from the capital, seoul. Thank you for taking the time to talk to us. How worried should we be . How seriously should we take this ratcheting up of tensions . was up early this morning, just about when donald trump was making those comments. I have to say, it was something different. We might think some of the things he does and the things he tweets are light hearted, but this looks like a planned statement. There is a bit of poetry, it has notjust spontaneously rolled off the tongue. He has also said a red line, laid down the challenge to north korea. Coincidently, around the same time, north korea released a statement saying they were prepared to possibly attack around wylam. We know there are some significant military outposts there which sometimes make little journeys over south korea. They did that yesterday. I think things are getting more serious. Looking around here in seoul, people are very much business as usual. We are so desensitised here that i would not ta ke desensitised here that i would not take it as a barometer of anything. Where does this go next . You have got fire, theory and power as a threat or a reaction. What more can be said for we see physical action . From the us, not much more can be said. If it came to blows, i dont know whether there would be any kind of formal statement. I suspect that would not be the case. At this point, my overall feeling is that this is still lost, it is still rhetoric from the us. President trump is putting himself in a position where i think the American People are increasingly becoming worried about their mainland being threatened. Various people in the Trump Administration are talking about preventative war. The language is ratcheting up. You can only talk like that for so long before some action has to be taken. North korea has danced a one sided tango for decades. You have got a us president talking in those terms now. It becomes very dangerous. He is also saying, if you threaten the us, north korea are going to do it. So then what will happen . How will kim jong un react . Then what will happen . How will kim jongun react . I am sure, the same as always, because otherwise pyongyang might consider that statement, threatening guam, within hours of what donald trump had said. Evenif hours of what donald trump had said. Even if it had been planned. I think that with the military drills this month, we will see some provocation. We saw two launches last month knowing they would get sanctioned again. North korea is very likely to carry out a provocation of some kind. Then the ball will be in Donald Trumps court. Court. Heres carol with a look at this mornings weather. For some of us, but not all, if youre in the northern half of the country, it some sunshine. In the south, heavy rain. That is courtesy of this heavy front, and a High Pressure building behind it is giving us are unsettled conditions. But you can see some brightness in the south east. Some early sunshine. As temperatures rise, sparking off some heavier thundery downpours. We are off to a bright start in Northern England with some sunshine. As the rain pushes south, it will continue across england and wales. Heavy rain merging with heavy showers, some torrential downpours in the south east. This afternoon, hanging onto sunshine across scotla nd hanging onto sunshine across scotland and Northern Ireland. Temperatures 20 21. Feeling quite pleasa nt temperatures 20 21. Feeling quite pleasant with a light breeze. Rain in Northern England and torrential downpours yesterday, you might need an umbrella. Brightening up in wales. Later in the day, Brightening Up wales. Later in the day, Brightening Up in south west england. You can see, where we have Rain Pushing South east, merging with showers, again some torrential downpours to look out for. For some of us, the temperature wont even get higher than the low double figures. In east anglia and the south east, they are in the firing line for that. We could see some Surface Water Flooding. Take extra care. As we head through the afternoon, those are our temperature values. Here is the rain, continuing into the evening and overnight. Pushing down into the south east. Where we have late rain or showers, we might see some patchiness and fog forming. For most of us, a dry night. Chilly in rural areas. These temperatures indicative of towns and cities. In the north, starting to cloud over. We have got a Weather Front not too far away. Producing some rain later in the day in the Northern Isles and then in the western isles. At the other end of the country, losing that rain to the near continent. High pressure exerting its influence. For a lot of the uk tomorrow, a fine and dry day. Some will notice a difference across england and wales. This Weather Front is thinking south during the course of the day. A week feature as it gets into the south. 0n course of the day. A week feature as it gets into the south. On saturday and sunday, not looking too shabby. Thank you very much. All this summer here on breakfast, were talking to some of the uks most inspirational businesswomen. This morning steph is talking to a woman whos achieved rare success in the world of science and energy. Yes, this is the third in our summer series talking to inspirational businesswoman at the top of theirfield. The Energy Industry, which has been much in the news recently, is dominated by men with only 6 percent of the places on the boards of Power Companies taken by women. My guest today is chief exec of good energy, an Energy Company she founded in 1999. It sells gas and electricity to around 115,000 customers generated only from renewable or Carbon Neutral sources. It also operates its own wind and solar farms. Juliet davenport, welcome to bbc breakfast. Take us back to the beginning of where this started for you . M take us back to the beginning of where this started for you . It feels like a really long time ago. In 1999, i guess i was really interested and passionate about trying to look for a cleaner future for the energy. I had come out of a consultancy, doing a lot of technology and looking at the policies around it, the finances around it. A lot of studies forgot consumers. Nobody had thought about this power and whether that would shift in a new world where you have low government power. That became really interesting to me. I was really interesting to me. I was really lucky to bump into somebody ata really lucky to bump into somebody at a conference who had the same thought. We came together and set up the business back in 1999. It is quite something to set up a business. Was it purely the motivation to make businesses greener, or was it the real or was it Something Else . If you knew all the problems about setting up your own business, you might not do it. You have to be passionate, really focused on that. You have to hold onto that all the way through. The thing about businesses is that they do stuff. A lot of policymakers try to tinker around, moneymakers give you the money. Business people actually do things, you get to be fa ntastically actually do things, you get to be fantastically creative. You work with fantastic people, lots of great customers. You get to do it and it is really exciting. The Energy Industry is quite an interesting area to penetrate. We talk about the Big Companies that dominate the market is, what is that like . Big Companies that dominate the market is, what is that like . I came up market is, what is that like . I came up through a background of physics. That is what i studied at university. I got quite used to being ina university. I got quite used to being in a bit of a minority. University. I got quite used to being in a bit ofa minority. I university. I got quite used to being in a bit of a minority. I was really lucky, i spent two years teaching maths and physics. It gives you huge confidence about explaining complex ideas in speaking out loud. Nobody gave me a hard time or tried to put me down. It surprised me. Where they surprised you were intelligent quest of surprised i had something to say, a challenge to the way they were thinking about it. It was very way they were thinking about it. It was very interesting, we when i first came into it, customers were just metres, not real people. Customers can generate their own power today. We have lots of customers who do that. We look at the market in a completely different way. They havent really thought about that. I think that is why you need diversity in business, to look at problems in different ways. It is interesting that it is heavily criticised. What are your thoughts . I think it is in a period of transition. My fingers are crossed that the way we look at things in the future will be different, the customer coming clean as opposed to being the person on the end of the wire. We have seen price changes, there is a lot of playing around. It isa there is a lot of playing around. It is a competitive market. The su ccesses , nearly is a competitive market. The successes, nearly 4 Million People switched this year. That is a huge change from what we have seen before. It is very easy to switch. Consumers can take their own power. If they dont like what they are getting, you can find more suppliers in the market than ever before. There is so much choice. I think it isa there is so much choice. I think it is a better Consumer Market and we have ever seen. I hope we continue to see customers drive forward a real choice in the future. You can hear my optimism coming through. We can see a future where customers are in charge, they generate their own power and decide what they want to do. Your home becomes a smart place, not somebody down the road. Interesting to see what happens. Thank you for coming in. Talking about the Credit Crunch later on. Back with the headlines in a few minutes, but time for an update from the london newsroom.

Ill be looking at what has happened since then and what lessons have been learnt. Anger at the athletics World Championships after one of the favourites to win the 400 metres is told he cant compete following an outbreak of norovirus.

While President Trump has declared that any further threats from the north koreans will be met with a devastating response. Suzanne kianpour reports from washington. North korea best not make any more threats to the united states. They will be met with Fire And Fury. Unprecedented language from an american president. Donald trump officially escalated the us stand off with north korea from his perch on a working vacation at his golf course in newjersey. The trigger . A report by Us Intelligence officials saying pyongyang has produced a Nuclear Warhead small enough to fit inside its missiles that much closer to the capability of striking the united states. The president s angry response could throw a wrench into hopes of a diplomatic resolution. After a rare unanimous vote in the Un Security Council to slap strong sanctions on the regime a move meant to bring north korea to the table. North korean state news says kim jong un is already weighing a plan to strike the us Pacific Territory Of Guam which appears to have been in place before mr trumps remarks. President trump often criticised his predecessor, barack 0bama, for not sticking to his red lines in Foreign Policy when he was here in the white house, but now, mr trump has drawn a red line with harsh new rhetoric. The question is what happens if north korea crosses it . 500 new medical School Places will be made available in england next year as the gvernment attempts to boost the number of home grown doctors in the nhs. The target is to increase the total number of Training Places by a quarter by 2020, to help ease staffing pressures. The British Medical Association says it wont address the immediate shortage of medics. Jessica parker reports. More doctors, home grown. The government has given more detail today on what it says will be the biggest ever expansion of the medical workforce in england. What were doing is ensuring that we train enough home grown doctors so the nhs becomes self sufficient in doctors over the period of the next ten years or so and we think that thats the best way to ensure that we have the doctors we need for the future. Next year, an extra 500 medical School Places will be made available. By 2020, that number will grow to 1,500, reprsenting a 25 increase in yearly intake over all and Medical Schools will have to win many of those extra places by showing that they can get graduates to work in rural or coastal areas, where recruitment os more of a struggle, and by bringing in trainees from diverse and disadvantaged backgrounds. We welcome the governments approach, looking at how they can get more people from poorer backgrounds to study medicine. Its something which the bma has been talking about for many years, but there are lots of questions about how these medical School Places are going to be funded and how the government is going to tackle the immediate recruitment and retention crisis of doctors in the nhs. This is all part of wider plans to create thousands more Training Places for nurses, midwives and health professionals. The labour party says it doesnt add up to any significant new investment. But, ultimately, it will be patients who decide whether this extra dose of doctors proves to be an effective medicine.

David duckenfield faces the most serious charges. 95 individual counts of mans slaughter, but before prosecutors can proceed with the case against him, they need to apply to the high court to have a court order lifted which prevents him being prosecuted.

Athletics chiefs have been criticised for denying a medal favourite entry to the London Stadium amid concerns over an outbreak of norovirus. Around 30 athletes and support staff have been affected by sickness at the World Championships, but only botswanas Isaac Makwala has been prevented from competing as andy swiss reports. As Wayde Van Niekerk charged to the 400 metres title, the first gold of a potential double at these championships, much of the focus was still on his absent challenger. Isaac makwala was told he couldnt compete after his sickness because organisers had to protect the welfare of the athletes, but his botswanan team were left frustrated. We respect the decision if it is based on Public Health issues. However, it is the manner in which this decision was arrived at which is quite disturbing and, as we have indicated, this matter has been approached in dribs and drabs. We feel very sorry for the athletes that have to be withdrawn from the competition, but we have a responsibility for all of the athletes and if we allowed them all to sit, its a tight Close Community and we need to make sure that all of the athletes are protected as well. Meanwhile, britains medal near misses continue, despite the performance of Kyle Langfords life. Bronze eluding him in the 800 metres by an agonising 400ths of a second.

I was there to get interviewed for a school newspaper. He said, i have got a conference to go to. Would you like to come with me . He took me into the press conference as part of his entourage. He was at the height of his fame. He gave me an interview for our local school newspaper. His actions spoke for a kind person who never lost sight of who he was. We will talk more about that with Chris Stevens later. Today marks the tenth anniversary of the start of the biggest financial crash since the great depression. It all began when the banks started to realise that they had a lot of toxic debt. They had been giving out high risk loans to people with poor Credit Histories. But when the banks realised they had no idea what these loans were worth, and whether they would ever be paid back, the Financial System froze. Here in the uk, we saw banks like Bradford Bingley, Northern Rock, rbs and lloyds get into real trouble and billions of pounds of taxpayers money was pumped in to try to save them. Money across the world became tight, banks were worried about lending. So to try to help, Interest Rates were slashed, with the bank of England Base Rate cut from 6 to just 0. 5 . Since the crisis, banks have to hold more capital for emergencies and the Lending Rules have been tightened up. But the big question is ten years on, have we learned the lessons and could it happen again . Stephs here along with claer barrett, the personalfinance editor at the financial times. Good morning. You have been talking about how the system has moved on and we are going to be asking that question ten years on. We have been talking. We have been financial journalists for sometime and we were talking about where we were when it happened because it is one of those things where you go, where were you when the Credit Crunch started . I was working with Robert Peston at the time when he was our Business Editor and you know it was a time when everyone suddenly thought oh my godness, none of us knows whats going to happen next. We talked about the banks suddenly realising they had this debt. They lent out too much money to people they didnt think could pay it back. This happened in america and this had been put into complex products which we re been put into complex products which were sold to investors and the long shot was no one had a clue what was going to happen next. I remember times when even the chancellor was ringing us to ask us what we knew on the news Richard Branson was ringing us to ask us what was going on with Northern Rock and virgin money. What have we learnt . There has been a lot of work done on making sure the intrantion got the money now. They have got greater Capital Requirements so we dont have problems if there is ever a run on the banks again. So they have had to do that. They have had to make sure they have more money in the coffers. You remember the Northern Rock pictures of people queuing, because they were panicking and Interest Rates are incredibly low. This issing with clare talks a lot about. It is the fact that it is cheap to borrow money and thats the danger still. We are in a lot of debt. It was all of a sudden business news, some people used to switch off that but it became important because it affected house prices, your mortgage, pensions. The key difference about this credit crisis related to others, you mentioned the great depression, this was global. It did notjust great depression, this was global. It did not just affect the uk great depression, this was global. It did notjust affect the uk or america, it started to affect asia. People were thinking, will it go away it didnt, it got worse, and it showed the Global Financial system was interconnected and what we have seen the last ten years is regulators around the world, uk, us, europe, further afield, regulators around the world, uk, us, europe, furtherafield, putting regulators around the world, uk, us, europe, further afield, putting new rules to try to make banks and Financial Institutions take fewer risks. It has created an unnatural environment and if we return to the uk, look at what has happened to Interest Rates. The Credit Crunch personally has been good for me and steph, we are journalists and our careers have blossomed. I bought a flat in london before mortgage lending was restricted. I only needed a deposit of £1000. If i bought the same flat, even though my salary and house prices have gone up three times, i would need a deposit of £100,000 to buy the same flat. Because i bought it, my mortgage is cheap and i am lucky. If i wanted to re nt cheap and i am lucky. If i wanted to rent in my building, the rent would be three times as much as the mortgage i was paying because i took get out when lending the scarily cheap and banks have had to keep Interest Rates are at rock bottom levels to make sure there is not a wave of mass defaults. You think it was ten years ago, but we are still paying the price. Young people are still paying the price. Anybody who graduated ten years after steph and i would have had a low wage, waited longer for a job. You look at the economy and think yes, fewer people are claiming unemployment benefit, but a lot of the jobs are insecure. The gig economy sounds fun and sexy, but if you do not get a pension and holiday pay, you are on a lower rank of the market. Also quantitative easing, it rolls off the time. I was ata easing, it rolls off the time. I was at a Financial News channel at the time and we all said quantitative easing, sub prime. Common language. Debt obligations. Claer, steph, thanks. We can talk to carol and see if there is any quantitative easing in the clouds good morning, look at this beautiful picture. Cumbria. Lovely Lake Windermere and blue skies. In contrast, you move to shropshire and you have rain. We have that contrast today going on with the weather with High Pressure establishing over the north, which means fine and settled but a Weather Front moving south eastwards. Taking heavy rain with it. To start the day, although bright in the far south east, as temperatures rise, thundery downpours develop and they willjoin forces with the rain. It will be a wet afternoon in the south eastern quarter. Especially east anglia and the south east. Brightening up behind. 0ver most of north of england, northern and western parts of wales and eventually south west england, but Northern Ireland and scotla nd england, but Northern Ireland and scotland and the far north of Northern England will start on a sunny note and carry on with that. With Gentle Breezes and temperatures up with Gentle Breezes and temperatures up to 20, maybe 21, it will feel pleasant. Brightening up again across the north midlands, north wales, and then we move into rain moving south eastwards. It will brighten up later across the south west of england and you will have a fine end to the afternoon. Rain running up through the channel islands, heading towards east anglia and down into the south east and joining forces with showers. Heavy, thundery downpours. Something to bearin thundery downpours. Something to bear in mind if youre travelling because it could lead to disruption with Surface Water Flooding. As we head on, overnight the same band of rain drifting down. Where we have late rain, we can see patchy mist and fog. For most of the uk it will bea dry and fog. For most of the uk it will be a dry night. These temperatures represent towns and cities and in rural areas it will be a bit cooler. You can see cloud and rain coming in over the far north as scotland because this area of low pressure is trying to penetrate High Pressure, going over the top and depositing the rain. It will do the same tomorrow. The north of scotland it will be a different day to the one you are having today. For most of the uk tomorrow it will be a dry day when we lose the rain from the south east. If you are in england and wales, you will notice the difference. It will feel better and there will be sunshine. 0n difference. It will feel better and there will be sunshine. On friday, by the time the rain gets into southern counties it will be a weak feature. 0n southern counties it will be a weak feature. On saturday, dry, with sunny spells, good news if you have been under that deluge of rain. I was under a deluge yesterday. Soggy trainers. Very squelchy and soggy. Tasked with winning six to eight medals at this years World Championships, the british team is currently sitting onjust one. But there have been plenty of near misses. In the 800m final last night, Kyle Langford lost out on a bronze medal byjust 400ths of a second. Kyle joins us now from the London Stadium, along with laura weightman, who came sixth in the 1500m final on monday night. Good morning, thank you for getting up good morning, thank you for getting up early to talk to us. Kyle langford, we will see pictures at the end of the 800th. Talk is through what was going through your mind. Immediately you look at the screen. Did you think you might have just got third . It was funny because i was driving down the home straight and looking at the athletes and counting how many. Four, five. I am trying to count. As i did, i thought, hopefully, iwas praying, i thought, hopefully, iwas praying, i thought my chest might have got it because i was looking to the athlete who got third and had an inkling i did not get it. It was gutting. I was looking at the screen and hoped my chest went ahead of his but it was gutting. A brilliant performance. Laura, sixth in the 1500 final, in which laura muir finished fourth. Your coach steve cram described the performance are superb at sixth place, there must be some disappointment with that, as well. I think as an athlete you a lwa ys well. I think as an athlete you always wa nt well. I think as an athlete you always want more and do better. If i look at the high quality and strength in depth in the 1500 metres in the world, to make the final and be competitive, i am happy. You a lwa ys be competitive, i am happy. You always wa nt be competitive, i am happy. You always want more. How well these girls are running, to be that competitive, i was pleased with the performance and coming back in the future it gives you believe you can be more competitive on the world stage. Laura, it is easy for presenters to sit and say, why are we not winning more medals . Do you as athletes . Is it part of your discussion . There is a target of six eight to win in this championships. There is the target and it is home games and it has lifted the team and we have brilliant performances and is fine margins. It is the world stage and you have to have everything 100 right. Callum hawkins fourth in a marathon, laura muir, iwas right. Callum hawkins fourth in a marathon, laura muir, i was in the top six. We have more performances top six. We have more performances to come and more athletes coming through and fingers crossed, more performances through the week and we hope as a team we can keep on putting in performances like that. Kyle, you are 21. I read some quotes from you. You athletes are humble. But i know you have big plans for your career. How good do you think your career. How good do you think you can be . It is that cliche, the sky is the limit. I really think that for me is what it is. I have said for a long time, i want to come to london and come out with a medal, make the final. People say, you need to be realistic, just get there, it will be amazing. But i set my sights high. I will be amazing. But i set my sights high. I would love to come out with a medal today, or yesterday. High. I would love to come out with a medaltoday, oryesterday. I high. I would love to come out with a medal today, or yesterday. Iset my sights high. I like to do everything, surpass mo farah and the likes of seb coe. I set my goal is really high. I think i can do it. Nothing wrong with high goals . Nothing wrong with high goals . Nothing wrong with high goals . Nothing wrong with high goals. It is achievable. It is not out of my reach. I have to keep training hard, stay humble and keep striving forward , stay humble and keep striving forward, and just enjoy the sport. That is what i have learned, i really love competing. As nerve racking as it is. The crowd are crazy. The reception after the final yesterday, it has been amazing. You looked like you enjoyed it. Laura, the major story, the norovirus and various athletes struck down, including Isaac Makwala, who was not able to run and many felt he had a good chance for a medal. Is that something athletes are taking extra care with . M medal. Is that something athletes are taking extra care with . It is a tough situation. Doctors are looking after the team and we have been strongly advised to keep on top of things, use the Hand Sanitiser. It is tough. All the athletes coming together and put in hotels and these things can easily travel around the teams. In our hotel, the signs are good and everybody is healthy and well and you have to keep an eye on yourself. Have you had breakfast yet . I have not had breakfast. I was told i was going to get breakfast but i have not had it yet, but i am waiting. Enjoy the rest of the World Championships. Peanut butter on toast. Who knows what they are eating. Good morning. It isa good morning. It is a rather wet start to the day across many parts of england and wales. More rain in the forecast and certainly this morning as you can see from the radar picture some heavy rainfall around in central and southern parts of england and wales, but that rain is gradually sinking south and eastwards. While there will be heavy and thundery showers across far south east of england later this morning and into the afternoon, across scotland and Northern England and wales and the north West Midlands it will be fairly sunny and those temperatures getting up to 1 to 21 celsius, but feeling cool and disappointing. You can see for most of us on thursday a dry and fine and pleasant day really. Any rain in the far south east tending to clear away during the afternoon and top temperatures tomorrow 17 to 22 celsius. Bye bye.
