Of Young Children during lockdown. And frost and fog are the main hazards for some of you this morning, i will tell you where it is the worst. Have you gone early for your Christmas Tree this year . You need to know how to look out for it. I will have the details here on brea kfast. Its friday, november the 27th. Our top story. Some conservative mps are pushing back against the governments plans to impose a three tier system of coronavirus restrictions on england, after the lockdown ends next week. The allocation of tiers was announced yesterday, but several backbenchers say the rules imposed on their constituencies are too harsh and not justified by the number of cases. Our Political Correspondent, Jonathan Blake, reports. The end of the National Lockdown may be inside but there may be in sight but there are still hard times ahead. The Prime Minister warned yesterday most parts of england would face tighter restrictions than before when the three tier system returns. I know that this will bring a great deal of heartache and frustration, especially for our vital hospitality sector, our pubs, our restaurants, our hotels. In so many ways, the soul of our communities, which continue to bear a disproportionate share of the burden. From next wednesday, the vast majority of england will be under the high or very high covid alert level, tiers two and three. In all those places, no household mixing will be allowed indoors. Only cornwall, the isle of wight and the Isles Of Scilly will be placed under looser restrictions in tier i, or medium risk. Less than 2 of the population. Many conservative mps are angry about the new system, arguing it is unfair that areas with relatively low numbers of cases have been lumped together with places where the virus is more widespread. Some have called for a rethink, and want to see more of the evidence decisions have been based on. Even tier 2 is going to be immensely damaging for a lot of businesses, and limits peoples freedom to meet their family and friends. Tier 3, of course, even worse. But by forcing so much of the country into those really tough restrictions, especially places where the rates of infection have been falling to much lower levels, i think the government has given itself a much harderjob. While the rules will be relaxed over five days at christmas, across the uk, allowing three households to mix indoors, there is a warning for anyone hoping for a hug from granny or grandad. Would i encourage someone to hug and kiss their elderly relatives . No, iwould not. Its not against the law, and thats the whole point, you can do it within the rules that are there. But it does not make sense because you could be carrying the virus and if youve got an elderly relative, that would not be the thing youd want to do. The hope in government is that mass testing will help some areas move down a tier before long but there is little expectation of much change until at least the new year. Jonathan blake, bbc news. Breakfasts john maguire is in bristol, which will face the strictest restrictions, tier 3, when the lockdown ends. John, talk us through what that means exactly . Because its worth looking into some detail at what has happened in bristol. The change from tieri to tier 3 is as dramatic as it can be . Absolutely right, to go straight from tier i, as we were before the latest lockdown, to face tier 3 in bristol next week. The reaction from people we have been speaking to in the last 2a hours is one of shock rather than surprise, because the was an awareness that the numbers we re was an awareness that the numbers were high. A week ago there were a74 cases were high. A week ago there were 474 cases per 100,000, it has dropped to 300 cases per 100,000 in the last couple of days but still well above the national average. So, couple of days but still well above the nationalaverage. So, lets couple of days but still well above the national average. So, lets run you through the tiers, tiers one, two and three, because there will be a change as we move on from lockdown two. Tier 1, medium, a change as we move on from lockdown two. Tier1, medium, there is a change as we move on from lockdown two. Tier 1, medium, there is no low category in this situation. The rule of six remains across england and throughout all of these tiers, that is meeting people indoors and out. Pubs and restaurants will open, social distancing of course. Tier 2 covers the vast majority of england, high, as it is known. No socialising indoors with people you dont live with unless they are in your support bubble. You can meet people outside, up bubble. You can meet people outside, up to six. Restaurants will be open, pubs will be open but only if they serve what the government is calling a substantial meal. Tier 3, very high, northwest, northeast, part of the midlands, here in bristol. The strictest restrictions that will come into place on december two. No mixing inside again, unless your support bubble. You can meet outside but this is a crucial difference from tier 2, must be in a public space, a park, countryside, Something Like that. No meeting people in your back garden for example. Pubs and restaurants will remain closed as they are now, apart from take a ways. Across england and across all of the tiers, shops, hairdressers, beauticians and gems will reopen. And the gym will open. People are all asking, when will these restrictions end . Open. People are all asking, when will these restrictions end . We cannot answer that, but we can say that there will be a review after two weeks. Then of course the rules change once again as you get into the christmas period. Thank you very much, we will spend more time with you later on looking at the situation more generally in bristol. We will try to explain the tier system and the reasoning behind it that the government has offered. Northern ireland has re entered a two week lockdown and nonessential shops have closed. Cafes, hairdressers and beauticians have also shut, just seven days after they were allowed to re open following the last lockdown. 0ur ireland correspondent, chris page, reports from belfast. Seasonal shopping is being suspended in Northern Ireland. From today, therell be no more scenes like this in towns and cities for a fortnight. The devolved government has told most shops to shut because its classified them as nonessential. The owner of this jewellery store says the closure couldnt have come at a worse time. Wed happily close from the 24th through to the end of february. We wouldnt bat an eyelid on it. But to take away two weeks out of the four pre christmas, its just a wrecking ball to retail. The new lockdown is due to last untiljust two weeks before christmas. And here in belfast city centre, it does feel a lot busier than usual during these last few hours before the shops shut. Well, im really busy at the minute, so i am, shopping for my grandchildren and my own children. The clock is ticking. Unfortunately, like everyone else, we will see what happens after the next two weeks. Close Contact Services such as hairdressers have also been trying to make the most of pre lockdown demand. Theyve been closed for longer than many other businesses this year. Im literally using my own savings that i had, like, that ive used for future life, for everything to do with my daughter and my husband. But unfortunately, ive had to use it all now, so its dwindling away. Ministers say the restrictions are painful but paramount. These are hard asks, as weve said before. But what we can really achieve over these next two weeks is as normal a christmas as we can possibly get to. The start of december is set to be difficult. But there are some positive signs in this part of the uk. The rate at which the virus is spreading has fallen. Its now lower than in england and wales. Chris page, bbc news, belfast. The argentine football legend Diego Maradona has been buried in a private ceremony on the outskirts of buenos aires. His death at the age of 60 has triggered a huge outpouring of public grief in argentina. Tens of thousands of people queued up to view his coffin in the president ial palace. 0ur south america correspondent, katy watson, reports. Followed to the end by his loyal fans, so many of whom couldnt believe or accept that the superstar footballer was dead. In the end, though, maradona, a man so often in the limelight, had a very private burial, laid to rest next to his beloved mum and dad. These past few days have been emotional in argentina. Theres been a very public outpouring of grief for a man people saw notjust as the worlds greatest footballer, but the countrys finest ambassador as well. Translation its a loss notjust for argentina but for the entire world. There wont be anyone like him ever again. As a kid, we all wanted to be maradona. I was born in the same hospital as him. Translation for me, hes not dead, hes still alive. Hell be in my heart forever. It was such big news, i wanted to come here no matter what. I managed it and im really happy. Amid tears and sadness, there were lighter moments. Chanting and singing to remember the good times. But as the day went on, emotions ran high as fans waited in line. At one point, they broke down the barrier and riot police were drafted in. The coffin had to be removed from public viewing viewing to keep the peace. Maradona wasnt perfect. He battled drug addiction, he had his flaws. But he came from nothing and neverforgot his roots. And argentinians say that he wont be forgotten either. Katy watson, bbc news, in buenos aires. A blood test designed to detect more than 50 types of cancer, at an early stage, is to be trialled by the nhs in england. More than 165,000 patients will be offered the tests from next year. Officials say Early Detection has the potential to save many lives. Jim reed reports. Checks for many types of cancer currently mean this, an mri or ct scan, to look for a tumour and then a biopsy. Often, though, that can mean treatment is left late. Some diseases like pancreatic and Ovarian Cancer are typically diagnosed at stage three or four, when the disease may have spread, and options are limited. Les maiden was 62 when she fell ill. It took almost a year to diagnose pancreatic cancer. She lost her life just months later. Its too late for my sister, but its not too late for others. And i passionately believe that early diagnosis will make a difference. The nhs is now planning to try out a new test in england. Developed by the Californian Firm grail, its designed to detect molecular changes in the blood caused by 50 types of cancer in people with no obvious symptoms. 165,000 participants aged between 50 and 79 will be asked to pilot the tests over the next three years. We want to be one of the First Health Services in the world to see whether this simple blood test can detect those cancers when treatment will make the biggest difference. But critics of the plan say the technology is unproven and there are real questions about the accuracy of blood tests for cancer. The nhs says if the pilot is successful, the scheme could be expanded to another1 Million People in england from 2024. Jim reed, bbc news. President trump says he will leave the white house ifjoe biden is officially confirmed as the next president by the electoral college, which meets next month. Mr trumps comment is the closest he has come to acknowledging his election defeat. He continues to insist the poll was a massive fraud, but hasnt provided any evidence to support his claim.

Elephants at oregon zoo, who are enjoying their own thanksgiving feast. Wouldnt you love the power to do that .

The north sees red is how the metro is reporting on the tiers. It says the Prime Minister is facing a furious backlash after the government said areas placed under the toughest restrictions would receive no additional financial help. The times says that after borisjohnsons assurance that every area has the means of escape from the toughest restrictions, government sources have said they would not expect any area to change tiers until the new year. The is front page is about the warning to families not to hug or kiss their elderly relatives at christmas by uk chief medical adviser prof chris whitty. He was asked, would he advise people, if they go to see their grandparents or elderly relatives, to hug and kiss them . He said, i would not advise it. All wight for some is the headline of the suns front page, which is a reference to the lucky 1 including the isle of wight, that have escaped the strictest covid curbs. Ijust i just found this. So ijust found this. So many sporting events have been cancelled, postponed, we know because of the pandemic. Here is another reason. The boat race, oxford versus cambridge, university groups, has only taken place outside london in its 165 year history once. Its going to happen again. Its going to ta ke going to happen again. Its going to take place in cambridge, in ely, rather than on the thames. Notjust because of covid restrictions but hammersmith bridge, in august, river traffic was barred from passing underneath the hammersmith bridge which is on the course because some cracks had appeared in the bridge. So they cant go underneath it . So the only reason that the boat race was held outside london, not on the thames, the only other time was in 1944 because of fears of hitlers bombs dropping on war ravaged london. What inspires me about that, even during war. We talk about the things that havent happened, even during the war, the oxford cabbage boat race took place. He is something that did happen, the oxford and cambridge boat race took place. This is something which did happen, in sherborne in dorset. You know what that thing when you bump into someone and they are wearing the same as you or something very similar, that might happen. Lets go to who these people are. It is rebecca. To who these people are. It is rebecca. I hope i get these names right. Rebecca birch. These two friends here. One and two, they decided to meet up for coffee. They go to the cafe and they are waiting in the queue, and lo and behold, four people all wearing similar yellow jackets. They are four people all wearing similar yellowjackets. They are not, fashionistas will notice, they are not literally the same jacket, but they are similar colours. What are they are similar colours. What are the chances of four people turning up the chances of four people turning upfora the chances of four people turning up for a coffee in the same jacket at the same place . I dont know the a nswer at the same place . I dont know the answer about the probability but it is unusual because its yellow, thats not a very common colour for a jacket. Its a great colour and im sure they all look lovely. I do enjoy fashion friday with you, charlie. There you go, yellow jackets. That is done. Despite a dramatic fall in the number of coronavirus cases since last week, hull still has the third highest Covid Infection rate in england. The city will be placed into the toughest, tier 3 restrictions when the National Lockdown ends next week. Breakfasts Jayne Mccubbin has been speaking to residents and businesses to find out how itll affect them. Radio hull, the east riding, north and North East Lincolnshire will all be put into tier 3. All quiet in hull at a time of year that should be bustling. Boarded up shops are waiting to be open from wednesday. For some though, the wait has gone on far too long. Tier 3, gareth. How do you feel about that . Yeah, still worried, but happy at the same time. Its an awkward one. A lot of people dont believe covid is really true. Still . Yeah, still. Gareth tells me five of his relatives have had the virus in a city which has one of the worst infection rates in the country. To help turn the corner they now face the most severe tier 3 restrictions. Across town window cleaner paul tells me covid has knocked the stuffing out of him and his business. Ive had three weeks in bed with the virus. It affects everybody different. I got the full monty, i got a good backside kicking. How much income do you think youve lost . Ive lost about 25 to 30 of my business. It is what it is, and weve got to deal with it. There will be no christmas celebrations in any of these restaurants. Tier 3 means takeaway only. The lights in what was once the piper nightclub perfectly sum up what manager tom is hoping. Its time to check. Hes about to find out which tier his city will be in, if his club, reimagined as a bar, can reopen. Listen, before you do that, before you do that, just tell me the difference for you between it being tier 2 and tier 3 . Yeah, monumental. Its. Its the difference between it being very bad and catastrophic. Weve overcome quite a lot to get at this point. Wed been operating as a nightclub in march. We operated as a bar from july. And we was ready to take a bit of a plunge and operate as a restaurant from december. Tier 3. Tier 3 it is. Devastating really. After lockdown mark one, the government pledged schools would be spared shutdowns. From the 2nd of december, Hull City Council will be in tier 3, very high alert. Thats not a surprise to anybody in hull, i dont think, this morning. And thats probably necessary to keep our rates coming down, because the most important thing is that the rates fall and everybody is safe. And the best place for children is to be in school. But with almost half of the School Population spending two weeks in self isolation this term, covid has still taken a hit. Hi, mum, hi, dad conversations like this between helen, mum iris and dad jack have taken place across england. Lockdown is ending and youre not going to be able to see the kids. Helens husband works on the rigs and she has a toddler and a new lockdown baby matilda to look after on her own. The isolation is the hard part. So basically, my parents have bubbled with my grandma. Its mentally, emotionally hard. Hopefully, next christmas, the family can have a proper christmas and be together, really. Restrictions are reviewed every two weeks. And infections are coming down here. But quick enough to turn the corner out of tier 3 and into tier 2 before christmas, hull has a tough road ahead. Jayne mccubbin, bbc news. Throughout the programme this morning, we will be getting more of your thoughts about what tier you are in. It is a very localised issue, people yesterday had a moment when they saw how it would affect them locally so keep your thoughts coming in this morning. 20 years ago today, ten year old Damilola Taylor was stabbed to death on his way home from the library in south london. It was a crime that shocked the nation, and for his family and friends, its a day that continues to bring back painful memories, as Adina Campbell reports. So this specific path is the path that me and my brother took when we met damilola for the last time. Grace boyega was one of the last people to see Damilola Taylor alive. I remember asking him if he wanted me to walk him home because obviously i was with my brother. So it is two people and one person, but him being him, oh, no, im fine. Im just going to go home with my grandma. He likes to run and skip. So we didnt see anything, we didnt feel like anything would happen. The ten year old nigerian schoolboy had only been in the uk a few months before he was killed. Grace says she and damilola quickly became best friends. Their birthdays were just three days apart. Almost every day, monday to friday, school times, i was literally, me and damilola in the playground, in class. After school, library times, and whatnot. It was me and damilola. This is the last place ten year old Damilola Taylor was seen on cctv just before his death. He left the library here in peckham and moments later was attacked and stabbed in the leg, just a few hundred metres away from here. He never made it home. His life was brutally cut shortjust before his 11th birthday. His family and friends left devastated, with fear in the peckham community and a nation in shock. This he collapsed and bled to death in this stairwell. Two brothers, danny and ricky preddy, who werejust 12 and 13 at the time, and part of a gang, were eventually convicted of manslaughter in 2006. 20 years on, his father says the pain will never go away. I still break down, i still feel the pain. I still, when i look at other, you know, young people growing up, successfully, you know, it always reminds me that damilola could have been a doctor. Its such a difficult situation that for the rest of my life i have to live with it, you know. And then die with it. Peckham now looks very different. New homes have replaced the dated tower blocks and the area continues to be regenerated. But grace says the same problems still exist. I dont think its stopped, i dont think its changed 100 . You can build New Buildings and stuff, but, you know, if its not helping the people, if people dont have access to it, it doesnt really change anything. I still love peckham, is to come back to peckham. But theres just too many memories that i feel like i have to just leave it here, and move on with my life. Adina campbell, bbc news. We have spoken before about someone else, to someone else who was a friend of Damilola Taylor, who came from the same estate, something so significant as the death of a ten year old boy, just hearing that phone call to the ambulance, so stark. I dont think he will ever be forgotten and the conditions around him growing up there as well. It is the anniversary, of course, of him being killed, and that has been marked there. Time now to get the news, travel and weather where you are. Good morning from bbc london, im victoria hollins. The mayor has warned londoners not to be complacent after it is was announced yesterday that the capital will be placed in tier 2 restrictions after the National Lockdown ends. London and the Home Counties have been placed in the high alert category. Meanwhile, slough has been placed in tier 3, the very high alert level, which means hospitality venues must remain closed except for takeaways. Its really important for those of us that go back to the shops, go to the pubs, bars and restaurants, to follow the rules. Its really important we dont inadvertently set our city back by the virus spreading too fast from next wednesday. Thats why its really important, of course, do what you can to support our businesses but do it safely. Two out of three people have said they would be likely to get a covid 19 vaccine when one becomes available, according to research by Kings College london. Nearly 9 of people told a survey they were unlikely to have the coronavirus vaccination, while just over a quarter have stated they were unsure. The aim of the research, conducted by the london researchers and Keele University was to get a picture of the expected uptake of a future vaccine. Easyjet has reported a spike in demand following the announcement that families will be allowed to reunite over the festive period. The Budget Airline said searches forflights and holidays have been three times higher than the same period last week. It has seen a significant rise in bookings for december flights, particularly on domestic routes such as london belfast and london edinburgh. Lets take a look at the travel situation now. Theres a good service on the tubes this morning. At the blackwall tunnel its already slow northbound from blackwall lane. On the a406, one lane is closed southbound at a12 redbridge roundabout because of Emergency Water works. At the oval, one lane is closed southbound on the a3 by oval station for emergency repairs. Now the weather with kate kinsella. Good morning. Its a rather grey, misty and murky start out there this morning. The met office has issued a yellow weather warning for the dense fog. Visibility reduced to under 100 metres in some spots. Its also very cold, temperatures hovering around zero celsius first thing. So a frost, but also, that fog could freeze. Through the day that fog is going to be very stubborn. Its barely going to lift. Some places staying underneath it for much of the day. If thats you, its going to feel colder. Temperatures between four and nine celsius. If it starts to lift its likely to lift into low cloud. We are going to see a very slow moving warm front moving across us overnight, coming from the south, bringing outbreaks of rain. Its also importing some milder air. We are likely to see some mist and murkiness redeveloping by dawn. But the minimum temperature between four and eight celsius. For saturday morning, it should be above zero. A bit misty and murky though, lifting gradually into cloud. Largely dry, temperatures double figures. For sunday, similar conditions but a little colder. Im back with the latest from the bbc london newsroom in half an hour. Plenty more on our website at the usual address. Bye for now. Hello, this is breakfast with Charlie Stayt and naga munchetty. Coming up on breakfast this morning as the duchess of cambridge prepares to release the details of her landmark early years study, she talks about the hugely challenging year we have all faced, and says theres no better time to have a conversation about families. Strictlys head judge Shirley Ballas will be talking to us about this years show, and revealing details of her new book behind the sequins. And 23 years after their first million selling single, steps are back to cheer up 2020, with their new album appropriately named what the future holds. Families may be planning to come together for the first time in months this christmas, but the governments chief medical advisor has warned people not to hug their elderly relatives. Professor chris whitty said it was right that loved ones should be able to spend time together, but urged people to be cautious. What i want someone to see their family . Of course, thats what christmas is about, whether people celebrate christmas as a festival for themselves or for any other belief system, its an opportunity forfamilies. But belief system, its an opportunity for families. But would belief system, its an opportunity forfamilies. But would i encourage someone forfamilies. But would i encourage someone to hug or kiss their elderly relatives . No, iwould someone to hug or kiss their elderly relatives . No, i would not. Someone to hug or kiss their elderly relatives . No, iwould not. It is not against the law. Thats the point. You can do it within the rules but it does not make sense because you could be carrying the virus, and if youve got an elderly relative that would not be the thing you would want to do in the period when we are running up to a point where we might be able to protect older people. Lets pick up on some of those thoughts with our gp this morning, drjamie parker. Good to see you this morning. I will ask about how life is in the surgery ina ask about how life is in the surgery in a moment. But i would imagine that when people see you today they are going to have heard that about plans for christmas. You talk to your patients regularly. How will they react to that . Its very sad when you are getting questions about whether you can hug your grant. It is worthwhile taking stock of where we are. This virus thrives on the fa ct we we are. This virus thrives on the fact we are human and enjoy being around other humans. One of the main thing is that has worked in terms of controlling the past few months is the social distancing and the lockdowns. Although we are hearing positive noises about vaccines coming out, we are not there yet. So many sacrifices have already been made this year. How many hugs, handshakes, kisses and cuddles have already been missed . Handshakes, kisses and cuddles have already been missed . Thousands and thousands of people have already paid the ultimate price for this. So i think this christmas, i think its really important that no one is alone with this christmas on account of covid restrictions. We should eat, drink and be merry. We deserve that. What of the same time we should be careful. Its too early. If we go wild we will really risk of spreading this again, we will risk a third wave and we will risk putting our elderly and frail at risk of getting covid. So whilst it is a really, really sad position to be m, really, really sad position to be in, ithink really, really sad position to be in, i think legally you can hug your grandmother, medically you probably shouldnt. I think the reality is that we are all human and its somewhere in between. How are you going to be promoting behaviour, or safety, a d d going to be promoting behaviour, or safety, add christmas in the surgery in the run up to it . Safety, add christmas in the surgery in the runup to it . I thinkjust consistency with the messaging. I think its not for us to mandate things. But i think reminding people, advising people, especially people, advising people, especially people who have been shielding. Personally ive been trying to spread the word a bit wider. I wrote an article yesterday for the nottingham post. I dont know if they will publish it yet its trying to be consistent with the messaging. Lets talk about nottingham. It is in tier 3. Much of the country is facing, well, 99 of the country is facing, well, 99 of the country is facing, well, 99 of the country facing tough restrictions at the moment. Only a handful, three areas, in tier 1. How are you receiving that news that nottingham is in tier 3 . We were hoping it would be tier 2, but realistically i think it is the right decision. There has been a lot of effort going on in nottingham to bring our rates down. We did have really high rates and they are coming down. But as far as i believe, the reason we are in tier 3 is that the rates in the over 60s and that Vulnerable Group are still high. Hospital admissions and hospital occupancy with covid is still really high. Its really important we follow the guidance, however tough it is. Of course. Hospital admission is one of the criteria the government will look at when its assessing these tiers, every 14 days. One area of concern is the level of cases particularly for the elderly, for the over 605. What are you seeing in terms of transmi55ion what are you seeing in terms of transmission or cases in patients coming to your surgery . We are certainly seen that as a pattern. Tho5e certainly seen that as a pattern. Those people going into hospital, definitely age is one of the major factors. We have seen quite a lot of ca5e5 factors. We have seen quite a lot of cases are spread factors. We have seen quite a lot of cases are spread within hou5ehold5. We are seeing whole hou5ehold5 affected, especially extended hou5ehold5. Affected, especially extended households. This is why im 5lightly nervous, or very nervous about the chri5tmas period, you are not only getting one hou5ehold, you are getting one hou5ehold, you are getting three hou5ehold5 allowed into the mix. I think it isju5t reminding people that weve got to be really careful with household transmi55ion inside. Coronaviru5 thrives on that. Its interesting, isnt it, the precautions generally we know, hand5, face and space, all of that. Had a question from one viewer, andy. Lot5 of that. Had a question from one viewer, andy. Lots of people still focused on the vaccine. It is almost as if we are in a Holding Pattern until this comes through. And he is asking if the Covid Vaccine, and i understand it hasnt been approved and you may not have the details, is it ok to provided combine it with treatment for high Blood Pressure or other prescription drugs . What can you tell people now who are in this situation . I think when it does come out it will have gone through rigorou5 out it will have gone through rigorous testing to make sure it is 5afe. If there is any guidance that comes out about that, we will be able to counsel people about it. We dont know anything yet, but for the majority of vaccines, they are com pletely majority of vaccines, they are completely safe with other peoples medication. That will be taken into account. If there were any issues regarding safety that we would be able to counsel people. And i dont expect there would be. I think it is worth reminding people that when the Covid Vaccine doe5 worth reminding people that when the Covid Vaccine does come out, and we hope it will be soon, it5 Covid Vaccine does come out, and we hope it will be soon, its highly likely they will need to be a gap between having the flu vaccine and having the Covid Vaccine. If you have been invited for the annual flu jab5, it5 have been invited for the annual flu jab5, its really important you take that up as soon as you can, to allow a few weeks before any Covid Vaccine comes out. I think especially in nottingham, but i think its the same around, the over 65 take up with the flu has been really good, it5 with the flu has been really good, its been less good in the under 65 with long term medical conditions that put them in that at risk group, and also pregnant women. Dr parker, a lwa y5 and also pregnant women. Dr parker, always good to see you. Thank you for talking to. Let5 lets say hello to mike. Lot5 lets say hello to mike. Lots of people will have seen those extraordinary picture5 coming out of argentina, the emotions following his death, the scenes of people in the streets, now some of the clubs he has played for in the past are also thinking about how they will mark his passing . Absolutely. Not just mark his passing . Absolutely. Notjust argentina. At the city of naples in italy, which he made his second home, honouring the man they called king. A whole tea m the man they called king. A whole team of number tens. Maradona picked the city of naples, as it reminded him of home and his hard upbringing in buenos aires. And now the club napoli, where he won numerous trophie5, are set to ensure his name lives on. Fans gathered outside the stadium last night, ahead of their Europa League match, and all the players and staff wore his iconic number tenjer5ey in a minutes silence. Napoli are also planning to rename their stadium after maradona, who helped them to two League Titles something they hadnt achieved before, or since. Napoli won their match, but celtic are out of the Europa League, after losing 4 1 to sparta prague for a second time. It mirrored the scoreline of the reverse fixture in glasgow, sealing their fate with with two games still to play. Its another blow for manager neil lennon, who says his players just cant seem to get their heads in the game. Rangers stuttered a bit, when they let slip a two goal lead at home to benfica. They looked to be cruising when kemar roofe scored their second. But the portuguese side brought it back to 2 2. Rangers are still on course to reach the knock out stage though. A great goal from harry winks helped tottenham move closer to qualification, with an easy 4 0 win over ludogarets. Although winks did admit afterwards that he was trying to cross the ball leicester are through after a dramatic finish at braga in portugal. They went behind in the 90th minute. Butjamie vardy had time to score an equaliser, and 3 3 was enough to take them forward. And arsenals record signing Nicholas Pepe went some way to making up for his red card in the premier league last weekend, scoring the opening goal in their 3 0 win at molde, which sent them through to the last 32. Arsenals next Europa League game will have 2,000 fans present, after it was announced that london will be in tier 2, in the governments latest coronavirus measures. Its led to claims that clubs outside tier 3 will have an unfair advangage. But on thursday, arsenal will be the First Premier League club to open its gates again, with fans at the emirates sticking to strict coronavirus saftety guidelines, for their game against rapid vienna. Of course, the restrictions will be lifted on wednesday, when Lower League Clubs will be able to welcome supporters. And itll be an historic day for Wycombe Wanderers fans, wholl be able to watch their club play in the championship for the first time ever, after they were promoted injuly. We were not one of the clubs that did a test pilot event earlier in the season. So, before we come back we have to do a test event with a thousand, which were hoping will be wednesday expected to be. And so, we have been planning forfive, six months on how to pull it off, and we feel pretty confident we can do it. After a rough old Rugby League Season, disrupted by covid 19 cases and matches called off, we still have a Super League Grand final tonight, with two of the sports great rivals smashing into each other, as the wigan warriors take on st helens, the reigning champions. Its too early for fans to be back but the teams will still relish the occasion and the chance to lift the big prize when they run out in hull. Definitely more enjoyable playing in front of a packed stadium. Its definitely been missed by the boys. But i think weve got used to it. Everyones got their head around that, and, yeah, the final, definitely missed that atmosphere. But theres still a lot at stake and theres still a lot up for grabs. So i think when you look back, it might not be the most memorable game, but its still pretty special to win a grand final. The players, more than anyone, deserve all the credit that we can give them. Theyre the ones that have taken the risks i suppose, every week, in terms of going back to work when others werent and going out and playing each other. Theyve done that without crowds, theyve done that with all the restrictions and a lot of things put in place obviously for their protection, but it does add to the load, add to the mental load and the difficulty of whats already a tough season. Theyve done that really well. So despite all the adversity, theyve got there, theyve got to theyve got there, theyve got to the grand final. There will be commentary on five live sports extra from eight oclock. Good stuff, mike. Thank you. Thank you, mike. Restaurants, pubs, bars and hotels are once again counting the cost of the new post lockdown restrictions announced yesterday. The tier system has also thrown up some anomalies in areas like kent, where transmission rates vary dramatically across the county. Bens in Tunbridge Wells for us and can explain whats going on. So ben, what we know already is that there are pockets of the uk, counties, where there are great disparities in how people are being affected. People know this from their daily lives, and yet they are all possibly subject to more stringent restrictions. Take us through the situation where you are . Yeah, good morning. You are absolutely right. I will explain that anomaly. We are here in Tunbridge Wells. This restaurant, bar, wedding venue would normally be gearing up for bar, wedding venue would normally be gearing upfora bar, wedding venue would normally be gearing up for a pretty busy time of year. And right here in Tunbridge Wells its pretty rural. Just two minutes down the road that way is east sussex. Infection rates they are relatively low. They fold into tier 2, which means that all bargrand tier 2, which means that all ba rg rand restaura ntg rand hotels tier 2, which means that all bargrand restaurantgrand hotels can remain open with a few limitations. But here they cant because they have been placed into a three because Tunbridge Wells has been lumped in with the more urban areas. About an hour lumped in with the more urban areas. Aboutan hourup lumped in with the more urban areas. About an hour up the road, there is a swale, there is thanet, where infection rates are much higher. That means tier 3 here, this place cannot open. Let me introduce you to peter, the boss here. What do you make of these restrictions . So close to east sussex in tier 2 but you cannot open here . Very frustrated. The tier system seems very heavily weighted against hospitality in the first place. And then, yeah, to be 30 miles away from the problem, where the reinfection rates are happening, that seems very unfair that we are, you know, being. Yeah. Normally for you this time of yeari yeah. Normally for you this time of year i guess would be one of your busiest. This is when you have to get people through the doors and make the money that gets you through the rest of the year . Thats right. We have a full book of restaurants ready to go. We have weddings booked. Christmas parties. Production is ready to go. And yeah, we are now on pause, unable to move forward. How is the rest of the year been . You had to furlough staff. Weve had a very tough year. Its been very difficult. The first lockdown was really tough. We had of the poor is ready to go in december. Then we were ready to be very, very busy and all geared up for that. And that now is on hold for two weeks, which is very frustrating. What a huge setback. For now, thank you very much. We will talk more later. That is the picture for hospitality businesses. So many other implications for all sorts of business. Let me introduce you to andrew, from the chamber of commerce. Good morning. We were hearing petes story. But for so many businesses they will be trying to work out what these new rules mean . They will already be facing significant challenges anyway in terms of what has been going on for the past few months. They would have been planning to reopen in early december. Now we have been put back on hold and the stop start is killing many businesses. That idea being put on hold, some businesses will see a change that they can open, unlike previous restrictions. Talk me through that . Is iron good news for retail, obviously, and james, good news for hairdressers. We can all get our hair done for christmas. I need to do mine all the time it will be a real challenge is in many businesses will not survive. That is a real problem. How would you like to see this done differently . What Business Needs is a little consistency. In berkshire, for instance, the whole of the cou nty for instance, the whole of the county is in tier 2 with the exception of slough, which is high rates and has gone to tier 3. Whereas here we have got a one size fits all approach. That is going to be really quite challenging. In kent we move around. We havent got a sheffield, manchester or leeds, we move around between districts for work etc. We want is consistency and some proper guidelines are workable. For now, thank you. Nice to see you. There you have it. That is the picture here. There is a lot of frustration. We know too that local mp5 in kent have written to the Prime Minister to ask for details about how they have come up with these rankings and calling perhaps for a more localised approach that would avoid problems like here in Tunbridge Wells. Ben, thank you. We should say, as ben, thank you. We should say, as ben said, there is a call for more clarity. We are going to be interviewing robertjenrick at about half past seven, the minister for government. We will put some of those questions to him, to ask how we can see these disparities within a region and frustrated areas where they have seen the rates come down but because they are in a certain region, they are all put under the same banner. Lets go to one business doing pretty big business i think this morning. It is a Christmas Tree farm. Matt is there with the weather. Good morning. Business is set to pick up even further for the rest of this week and the weeks ahead. I am no expert at decorating the tree. I get frustrated untangling the lights. Someone who jane ingram from the tree barn in south oxfordshire. Thank you forjoining us. Good morning. First of all, we have got to say you have actually decorated the downing street tree in the past. How pressurised is that . It was quite worrying the first year. But after that we sort of knew what we we re after that we sort of knew what we were doing so it wasnt too stressful. Fantastic. And for us, tips . When you are putting your decorations on the tree, do you put the lights on first or the decorations . Definitely do the lights first, then start with the larger baubles and the smaller ones. If you can wire them on a little bit, leave the branch droop a little bit, leave the branch droop a little bit so the bubbles wont slide off and get broken. When you are putting those lights on, do i start of the top or the bottom . That is the challenge i never know |j top or the bottom . That is the challenge i never know i would start at the top. It depends along the string is. Throw them in graduallyjust to get them roughly in the right place and if you have got a bit more left you know you can got a bit more left you know you can go back and took them in a little bit more to take up space. Do i decorate the back of the tree . |j wouldnt bother if i were you. Good answer thank you. Busy few weeks ahead for you as well. I think the bigger tip to mention is that if you are getting a Christmas Tree soon, dontjust are getting a Christmas Tree soon, dont just stick to the weekends because it is going to be very busy. All the Christmas Tree farms have various restrictions in place. Lets look at the weather. We are in one of the coldest part of the country. Temperatures got down to 3 last night. Quite a bit of frost across parts of england and wales this morning. Some dense fog patches. If you are on the roads you may need to leave some extra time because that fog is particularly thick in parts of the midlands, southern england and south wales. In between two weather fronts at the moment. One between scotland and Northern Ireland producing scott patchy drizzle. We also have a weather front done across the south coast of england producing patchy rain and drizzle. In between most will be dry. When you have the mist, fog and low cloud it may linger for the day. If it does temperatures will not get above if it does temperatures will not get a bove two if it does temperatures will not get above two or three degrees. Even if you do get some sunshine, there will be some around, tablature is highest at around seven or 8 degrees. A pretty chilly day. Temperatures down from where we should be at the time of the year. Tonight, you will notice how everything starts to move from south to north. We develop more ofa from south to north. We develop more of a south to south easterly wind. That will take cloud, patchy rain and drizzle northwards overnight. Not as cold tonight. Across scotland and Northern Ireland with clearer skies there will be a touch of frost to ta ke skies there will be a touch of frost to take us into tomorrow morning. The weekend we go. High put in charge. Things will be relatively quiet. A lot of grey, misty low cloud across england and wales. Best of the sunshine in the south coast and Channel Islands. Sunny start for Northern Ireland and scotland before clouding over. Northern scotland sees the best of the afternoon sunshine. Temperatures will be rather surprised in mid single figures for the vast majority. Signs of things getting louder towards the south. Temperatures in double figures. Slightly milder for all south. Temperatures in double figures. Slightly milderfor all by the time we hit sunday. Still plenty of cloud. A grey and murky sort of day over the hills. The best of your sunday science and will be in sheltered parts of wales, western england and do the north east of scotland. Temperatures will be up a little bit. But of course if you are out Christmas Shopping this weekend, you will still need some warm clothes. For some of ely restrictions on shops still in place. That is how is looking. We will take a look through the morning of how to look after your tree. Thank you. Thank you. Would you start the lights from the bottom or the top . Honesty, i dont know. Feelings of loneliness among parents with Young Children have rocketed during the coronavirus pandemic, according to a study led by the duchess of cambridge. More than half Million People shared their experiences of bringing up under fives, as part of new research commissioned by the royal foundation. Our royal correspondent, daniela relph, reports. Some have tyres and some have tracks. Some precious quiet time for becky and her son, ollie, whos three. This preschool in peterborough has been a sanctuary, vital to the well being of them both. Run by the Charity Family action, the duchess of cambridge is its patron. It provides practical and emotional support to parents, from potty training to outdoor play, and has helped families manage the parenting challenges of lockdown. There was days where it was just, do you know what, i cant be bothered today. Im not getting dressed today. But we got through it. And what lifts you on days when you feel like that . How do you get out of it . The stuff he comes outwith. It genuinely is him that pulls me out of it. Like, i sit there thinking, oh. I struggle. I cant cope. And then helljust look at me and hell sayjust Little Things like, are you all right, mummy . And it changes the whole mood completely. The survey is a look at early childhood. 63 of people said theyd experienced loneliness, which had become significantly worse in lockdown. 70 described feeling judged by others. And only 10 of parents found time to look after their own well being. Being briefed on the Research Findings earlier this week, the duchess of cambridge has described the work as a landmark public survey. So weve taken your input, and combined it with even more public research, to produce the uks biggest ever study on the early years. This year has been a hugely challenging time for us all, and there hasnt been a more important moment to talk about families. During the summer, the duchess spoke to the bbc and met families with Young Children, including dad ryan and his daughter mia. Particularly for first time dads, is it quite a daunting. Daunting time . Its very scary. Almost six months on, mia has taken her first steps. Oh, my god, yes . And enjoyed herfirst birthday cake, as ryan continues to cope with the pressure of being a single dad. You shouldnt like, judge someone, or make someone feel conscious about the way theyre parenting, because not everyone is perfect. Everyone has their own mistakes, makes their own mistakes. So, its easier said than done. And i but yeah, i do feel conscious when im Walking Around and if i tell my daughter off in public, im like, oh my god, ijust like, told her off, does that make me a bad parent . It doesnt. Its telling them the rights and wrongs of things. They like Brussel Sprouts too . I never knew that. For the duchess of cambridge, supporting the Early Years Community is now her priority. Its a long term commitment. She wants the survey results to inform the work of everyone supporting Young Children and their families. It can really, hopefully, make a real difference to how we raise the current and next generations of children, and make a difference to to the world we live in. So i think. For that reason i think its a really important piece of research. The survey is a vast bank of data, the first hand experience of parents, with the aim of improving the lives of Young Children and those looking after them. Daniella relph, bbc news, peterborough. Time now to get the news, travel and weather where you are. Good morning from bbc london, im victoria hollins. The mayor has warned londoners not to be complacent after it is was announced yesterday that the capital will be placed in tier 2 restrictions after the National Lockdown ends. London and the Home Counties have been placed in the high alert category. Meanwhile slough has been placed in tier 3, the very high alert level, which means hospitality venues must remain closed except for takeaways. Two out of three people have said they would be likely to get a covid 19 vaccine when one becomes available, according to research by Kings College london. Nearly 9 of people told a survey they were unlikely to have the coronavirus vaccination, whilejust over a quarter stated they were unsure. The aim of the research was to get a picture of the expected uptake of a future vaccine. Its exactly 20 years ago today that schoolboy Damilola Taylor was stabbed and killed in peckham, in a crime which shocked the nation. It led to tough questions about the drivers of Youth Violence in the capital. Reverend Denise Parnell set up a youth club the same year because of concerns over the safety of local children. She says she had hoped to see more progress in the two decades since damilolas death. In the streets, the things that i was hearing 20 years ago im still hearing. But what i could add as a positive note is that at least there is a lot more Community Collaboration with the police. And you can see more on the legacy of Damilola Taylor this evening on bbc london on our programme at 6. 30. Lets take a look at the travel situation now. Theres a good service on the tubes this morning. On the trains, Great Northern, delays and cancellations between moorgate and Finsbury Park due to a points failure. On c2c, 15 min delays and some cancellations between grays and upminster due to a points failure. A406, usual delays westbound from a10 to bowes road. Now the weather with kate kinsella. Good morning. Its a rather grey, misty and murky start out there this morning. The met office has issued a yellow weather warning for the dense fog. Visibility reduced to under 100 metres in some spots. Its also very cold, temperatures hovering around zero celsius first thing. So a frost, but also, that fog could freeze. Through the day that fog is going to be very stubborn. Its barely going to lift. Some places staying underneath it for much of the day. If thats you, its going to feel colder. Temperatures between four and nine celsius. If it starts to lift its likely to lift into low cloud. We are going to see a very slow moving warm front moving across us overnight, coming from the south, bringing outbreaks of rain. Its also importing some milder air. We are likely to see some mist and murkiness redeveloping by dawn. But the minimum temperature between four and eight celsius. For saturday morning, it should be above zero. A bit misty and murky though, lifting gradually into cloud. Largely dry, temperatures double figures. For sunday, similar conditions but a little colder. Im back with the latest from the bbc london newsroom in half an hour. Good morning, welcome to breakfast with Charlie Stayt and naga munchetty. Our headlines today. A call for a rethink, as most people in england are told theyll enter the two toughest tiers after lockdown. The Prime Ministerfaces an angry reaction from some of his backbench mp5. A blood test that can detect more than 50 types of cancer, is trialled by the nhs. Amid chaotic scenes of passion and disorder, football legend maradona is laid to rest in buenos aires. And thousands of fans gathered outside napolis stadium in italy to celebrate their hero. The ground was lit up to show what he meant to them before their Europea League game and the stadium will be renamed in his honour. Iamata i am at a Christmas Tree farm in oxfordshire looking at how best to look after your tree. But it is cold out there this morning. Widespread frost across england and wales and some dense patches of fog, your full forecast to the weekend here on brea kfast. Its friday november the 27th. Our top story. The Prime Minister is facing resistance from some of his backbench mp5 over the three tiers of coronavirus restrictions which will be brought in when englands lockdown ends next week. The allocation of tiers was announced yesterday but several backbenchers say the rules imposed on their constituencies are too harsh. Mp5 get a chance to vote on the new rules on tuesday. Our Political CorrespondentJonathan Blake reports. The end of the National Lockdown may be in sight but there are still hard times ahead. The Prime Minister warned yesterday most parts of england would face tighter restrictions than before when the three tier system returns. I know that this will bring a great deal of heartache and frustration, especially for our vital hospitality sector, our pubs, our restaurants, our hotels. In so many ways, the soul of our communities, which continue to bear a disproportionate share of the burden. From next wednesday, the vast majority of england will be under the high or very high covid alert level, tiers two and three. In all those places, no household mixing will be allowed indoors. Only cornwall, the isle of wight and the Isles Of Scilly will be placed under looser restrictions in tier 1, or medium risk. Less than 2 of the population. Many conservative mp5 are angry about the new system, arguing it is unfair that areas with relatively low numbers of cases have been lumped together with places where the virus is more widespread. Some have called for a rethink, and want to see more of the evidence decisions have been based on. Even tier 2 is going to be immensely damaging for a lot of businesses, and limits peoples freedom to meet their family and friends. Tier 3, of course, even worse. But by forcing so much of the country into those really tough restrictions, especially places where the rates of infection have been falling to much lower levels, i think the government has given itself a much harderjob. While the rules will be relaxed over five days at christmas, across the uk, allowing three households to mix indoors, there is a warning for anyone hoping for a hug from granny or grandad. Would i encourage someone to hug and kiss their elderly relatives . No, iwould not. Its not against the law, and thats the whole point, you can do it within the rules that are there. But it does not make sense because you could be carrying the virus and if youve got an elderly relative, that would not be the thing youd want to do. The hope in government is that mass testing will help some areas move down a tier before too long but there is little expectation of much change until at least the new year. Jonathan blake, bbc news. Our Political Correspondent iain watson is in westminster. So we are hearing that there are conservative mp5, and labour mp5, who are really concerned about their constituency is being put into tier 3, saying that these measures are too harsh. Reflecting the restorations of many in those constituencies who were hoping the frustrations of many in those constituencies who are hoping for some relief after the lockdown. Thats right, we heard the advice of not to hug your granny over christmas but we have to think that borisjohnson has to give some love and affection to his backbench mp5 if he is going to avoid a large scale rebellion next week. I think there will be a rebellion for a number of reasons. Not just there will be a rebellion for a number of reasons. Notjust the type of restrictions that are going to be imposed but the number of people who are going to live under those restrictions. Those in the top tier, tier 3, going restrictions. Those in the top tier, tier3, going up restrictions. Those in the top tier, tier 3, going up from 8 million before lockdown to more than 23 Million People being affected in england as of next week. There is also fears about the governments levelling up agenda, the seats where the conservatives won for the first time, 75 of constituencies that are in tier3are time, 75 of constituencies that are in tier 3 are in the north of england. Even in the south east, there are concerns. There is going to bea there are concerns. There is going to be a high level delegation of former cabinet ministers, led by greg clarke, also involving damian green, who are going to see the Health Secretary matt hancock because they are complaining that their county kent should not be in its entirety put into tier 3. There are some areas where there is very low prevalence of the virus, some areas where its high, but the whole cou nty areas where its high, but the whole county will be under three restrictions. This view is mirrored in lincolnshire and lancashire where conservative councillors have been lobbying the government to rethink when they review these measures on december 16, why have this one size fits all approach to other big counties . There are a range of challenges to borisjohnson, not just the range of the effect, but a real pressure to redraw the boundaries and rethink the basis in which people are put into these restrictions at all. And we will know more when the vote happens on tuesday. Thank you very much. Well be speaking to the housing and communities secretary robertjenrick at around 7. 30 this morning. Northern ireland has re entered a two week lockdown and non essential shops have closed. Cafes, hairdressers and beauticians have also shut just seven days after they were allowed to re open following the last lockdown. The devolved government said the restrictions, which end on december 11th, are crucial to give people the safest christmas possible. The argentine football legend Diego Maradona has been buried in a private ceremony on the outskirts of buenos aires. His death at the age of 60 has triggered a huge outpouring of public grief in argentina, tens of thousands of people queued up to view his coffin in the president ial palace. Our south america correspondent katy watson reports. Followed to the end by his loyal fans, so many of whom couldnt believe or accept that the superstar footballer was dead. In the end, though, maradona, a man so often in the limelight, had a very private burial, laid to rest next to his beloved mum and dad. These past few days have been emotional in argentina. Theres been a very public outpouring of grief for a man people saw notjust as the worlds greatest footballer, but the countrys finest ambassador as well. Translation its a loss notjust for argentina but for the entire world. There wont be anyone like him ever again. As a kid, we all wanted to be maradona. I was born in the same hospital as him. Translation for me, hes not dead, hes still alive. Hell be in my heart forever. It was such big news, i wanted to come here no matter what. I managed it and im really happy. Amid tears and sadness, there were lighter moments. Chanting and singing to remember the good times. But as the day went on, emotions ran high as fans waited in line. At one point, they broke down the barrier and riot police were drafted in. The coffin had to be removed from public viewing to keep the peace. Maradona wasnt perfect. He battled drug addiction, he had his flaws. But he came from nothing and neverforgot his roots. And argentinians say that he wont be forgotten either. Katy watson, bbc news, in buenos aires. A blood test designed to detect more than 50 types of cancer, at an early stage, is to be trialled by the nhs in england. More than 165,000 patients will be offered the tests from next year. Officials say Early Detection has the potential to save many lives. Jim reed reports. Checks for many types of cancer currently mean this, an mri or ct scan, to look for a tumour and then a biopsy. Often, though, that can mean treatment is left late. Some diseases like pancreatic and Ovarian Cancer are typically diagnosed at stage three or four, when the disease may have spread, and options are limited. Les maiden was 62 when she fell ill. It took almost a year to diagnose pancreatic cancer. She lost her life just months later. Its too late for my sister, but its not too late for others. And i passionately believe that early diagnosis will make a difference. The nhs is now planning to try out a new test in england. Developed by the Californian Firm grail, its designed to detect molecular changes in the blood caused by 50 types of cancer in people with no obvious symptoms. 165,000 participants aged between 50 and 79 will be asked to pilot the tests over the next three years. We want to be one of the First Health Services in the world to see whether this simple blood test can detect those cancers when treatment will make the biggest difference. But critics of the plan say the technology is unproven and there are real questions about the accuracy of blood tests for cancer. The nhs says if the pilot is successful, the scheme could be expanded to another Million People in england from 2024. Jim reed, bbc news. Its time for the weather. We were just discussing, what time is it getting a light . I was casting my eye to where matt is, oxygen, thats not a very helpful image i was thats not a very helpful image i was oxfordshire.

Sunup is roughly 7 30am at the moment. It morning, everyone. We are ata moment. It morning, everyone.

Temperatures have been very low across england overnight, a widespread frost across england and wales, and some dense patches of fog which could lingerfor wales, and some dense patches of fog which could linger for the good wales, and some dense patches of fog which could lingerfor the good part of the morning causing some issues on the roads. Some of the fog will lift up into low cloud and linger all day long. Some sunshine here and there but across the south coast of england, cloud and patchy rain and drizzle, and scotland and Northern Ireland, a weak weather front produces grey skies and light rain here and there. Most of the country will be dry, a few gets in sunshine. It will be three and a will be dry, a few gets in sunshine. It will be three and 4 degrees weather fog lingers.

I am completely with you. A lot of people this morning will be digesting the news, which tier you will be in when the changes come into effect next week. Breakfasts john maguire is in bristol, which will face the strictest restrictions, tier 3, when the lockdown ends. Good morning. Bristol had been in tier1 but now good morning. Bristol had been in tier 1 but now jumps good morning. Bristol had been in tier1 but nowjumps straight into tier1 but nowjumps straight into tier 3, shocked but not a surprise looking at the numbers, hearing that hospitals were getting very busy and looking at the numbers of people aged over 60 with Covid Infections. This part of the Bristol Harbour is normally very important for the night time economy but all of the bars and rations will not be reopening because we are in tier 3. Bars and restaurants. Lets run you through all of the tiers. Number one is a medium, there is no low tier. The rule of six applies throughout england.

In tier 2, no socialising indoors with people you do not live with u nless with people you do not live with unless they are in your support bubble. You can meet outside in a group up to six. Questions will be open, pubs will be open but only if they serve what is being described as substantial meals. On to tier 3, the highest tier. Bristol, for example, the highest tier. Bristol, for exa m ple, west the highest tier. Bristol, for example, West Midlands including birmingham in tier3, northwest, northeast, other parts of yorkshire, large parts of the country, no mixing inside again unless it is with people in your support bubble. You can meet outside but crucially not ina you can meet outside but crucially not in a private garden. You would need to be in a park, in the countryside or on the coastline, Something Like that. Restaurants and pubs will be closed but will be able to serve take away. The situation the same as it is now. Shops, hairdressers, the gym, beauticians, they will reopen. So that is different. This will be reviewed within two weeks, the government promises. Looking at figures like the hospital admissions, looking at the hospital admissions, looking at the pattern of infection across england, and that could change the tea rs. England, and that could change the tears. Change the tiers. We are hearing a lot of opposition from some conservative mp5. But a few days after the review, we have a different set of rules covering the whole of the uk are to christmas, and people with different plans to try to meet up with friends and family over christmas. Lots to change over the weeks ahead. Thank you very much, john, looking at the situation across the uk but he is in bristol. We will hear more about the specifics of that location later on. The government is facing a rebellion from some conservative mp5, who have complained about the measures. A number have said they wont back the plan when ministers vote on it next week. Tobias ellwood, the mp for bournemouth east, is one of them. Good morning to you. So your area, the area you represent, will move into tier 2, that is the classification, next week. So explain to me what your issue is with that. Firstly, lets call it a conversation that i want to have with the government, not a rebellion at this point. We must recognise the Prime Minister is right, we dont wa nt to Prime Minister is right, we dont want to throw away the hard fought gains, especially so close to christmas, but as you imply, down here in dorset, we entered lockdown with very low numbers, we are coming out of it with even lower numbers. The last weeks data showed us drop even further by a third and here we are similarto the even further by a third and here we are similar to the isle of wight, but in tier 2. That is really going to impact on the Hospitality Industry which of course has been devastated so much because of this pandemic. We would like to see the criteria and a justification for this and better understand what we need to do to get out of these tea rs. Need to do to get out of these tears. These tiers. Clarification and communication is so important. You must have looked into this in detail. There are criteria on which this system is based, five principles. Lets go through them and you can help me with each one relative to your area. So, number one, total number of covid cases in an area. Bournemouth east where you are, take me through these ones. Does that apply to you, the total number of covid cases, is that a cause for concern or not . You cant really measure those cases because we dont actually know. The key criteria is per 100,000, that gives you a proportion in the population that you can compare with elsewhere. Dorset is a small county, there is no point in comparing us with yorkshire. Here, it is 67 people per 100,000. In bournemouth, slightly higher than that, over 605, the numbers are not too dissimilar. You then have the pressure on the hospitals themselves. But we had a mini outbreak of covid inside the hospital which has skewed the numbers. It has been dealt with very swiftly indeed but it didnt affect our data. And i am also slightly puzzled as to why we have produced the nightingale programmes, that should alleviate the pressure. Thats where we should be putting covid patients. We have great hospital built by our armed forces line completely empty. They should be our overflow meaning we can remain in tier1. Be our overflow meaning we can remain in tier 1. Our biggest gripe is the data that we are using, they have made a decision on the 25th of november, a couple of days ago, using last weeks data, for an event thats going to happen next week. I would really like the decisions to be made using up to date data, a couple of days before these new restrictions come in. I would go further than that to say, i would like to see a blanket rule across the country of National Travel ban, after ten to 15 miles, so that areas that are in tiers one are better protected and areas in tier 2 can be better targeted with support. People can still move around an awful lot so the virus still has the ability to move. So the issue around the timing around when these criteria, the government cannot win. There was a lot of pressure on them to announce what tier people are in, they can only announce it on the data they have at the time. Are you saying they should have waited until the eve of the end of lockdown . Saying they should have waited until the eve of the end of lockdown7m would have given you the more accurate data. It is lives versus livelihoods. We know how damaging this pandemic is to our economy. We are all better disciplined, where wearing masks, we have medicine touting keep people alive. To help keep people alive. The Prime Minister does have to make Big Decisions but basing the judgment on data which is a couple of weeks old is not right. We have more detailed data on more specific areas. Just one last question, what is the thing which would change your decision between now and when you vote, which i think is tuesday, the vote on tuesday or monday . What is the thing you need to know in order that you can make a. At the moment you say you will be voting against. What you need to know which will change your mind . I didnt say i would vote against, i will probably abstain. I began this by saying, i dont want to rebel, i want to have a conversation. There is time, thats what politics is about. Lets see the evidence would also understand. Everybody wants to know what any area would need to do to improve to move into another tier. That gives you an incentive. We worked really ha rd you an incentive. We worked really hard down here in bournemouth and dorset to get the numbers down because hospitality is so important to us. Thats why we are baffled that we have ended up in tier 2. Thank you very much for talking to us this morning. That is bournemouth east, that community, and some of theissues east, that community, and some of the issues we were raising there, we will speak to robertjenrick, the communities secretary, in about five or six minutes, just after 7 30am. Yesterday we told you about eight year old monti who wrote a letter to the Prime Minister asking if father christmas could still visit this year despite the pandemic. Worried about travel restrictions, presumably, and all the things that might apply. And sanitisation, all that kind of thing. Not only did he receive a reply from borisjohnson, but a rather important person from the the north pole also sent him a message which we broadcast on breakfast. Lets catch up with monti and his mum abby to get his reaction. Good morning to both of you, hello morning how are things, monti . You have had quite a spectacular few days. Tell us first of all about the letter, why did you decide you wa nted letter, why did you decide you wanted to take it to the man at the top, the Prime Minister . Tell me about your thinking. Well, in june, i heard that the pandemic might go on for a long time. And it could reach christmas. And then. I thought that, you know how santa keeps the Christmas Spirit alive . If no one is happy, then no one will be happy and that wont be good. I thought i should write to the Prime Minister to see if santa could come. And i imagine, monti, you were very surprised when you got a reply from the Prime Minister. Were you expecting him to reply . Not really, because he is a busy man. He is, but i think what you brought up was a very important point. Particularly, i like the idea of santa bringing happiness as well. And if we need anything, of course, it is happiness. Abby, good morning to you. I understand that monti was shown that message from santa that we broadcast yesterday. Lets play it, and then i want you to tell me how monti reacted and i will make very clear that monti has seen it already. Thank you, monti, and all the boys and girls who have been kindly worrying about my safety. I would like to assure you that all of my special christmas magic which helps my reindeer to fly also helps to keep me safe. So theres really nothing to worry about. I will still be living your presence in person in Christmas Eve and helping to make your christmas wishes come true. Its your christmas wishes come true. Its so important that these m essa g es its so important that these messages are very clear and monti was worried, how did he react . Absolutely, we just needed some reassurance that father christmas would still be able to deliver his presence across the world. Monti was really excited, not just with presence across the world. Monti was really excited, notjust with the letter from the Prime Minister but with santa, getting a personalised message and reassuring him that he will be able to deliver on Christmas Eve. I think what is quite impressive and what we have realised now, that you, monti, at the tender age of eight, have a direct line to not only the Prime Minister, but now it appears you have a direct line to sa nta it appears you have a direct line to santa as well its pretty impressive. Do you have any words of wisdom or advice for santa in a busy patch that he has coming up . wisdom or advice for santa in a busy patch that he has coming up . I would say,. Patch that he has coming up . I would l , patch that he has coming up . I would say,. Sorry, i couldnt quite catch that, could you say that it for me . Any advice for santa . |j would say bring some hand sanitiser. Hand sanitiser that is such an important message. Abby, how are things generally for you and the family . Everyone has different issues and troubles and worries. Hows things for you and the family . We are all great, thank you. We all came out of isolation for 14 days this week, various track and trace reasons but we are all healthy and we are looking forward to a nice christmas break now. Lovely to catch up christmas break now. Lovely to catch up with you. Monti, what a fantastic week you have had, amazing and nice of you to share some of your correspondence with us this morning. Thank you so much bye that is one well connected eight year old. That is one well connected eightyearold. This is a christmas he will not forget. Time now to get the news, travel and weather where you are. Good morning from bbc london. Im victoria hollins. The mayor has warned londoners not to be complacent, after it is was announced yesterday that the capital will be placed in tier 2 restrictions after the National Lockdown ends. London and the Home Counties have been placed in the high alert category. Meanwhile, slough has been placed in tier 3 the very high alert level which means hospitality venues must remain closed except for takeaways. Two out of three people have said they would be likely to get a covid 19 vaccine when one becomes available, according to research by Kings College london. Nearly 9 of people told a survey they were unlikely to have the coronavirus vaccination, whilejust over a quarter stated they were unsure. The aim of the research was to get a picture of the expected uptake of a future vaccine. Its exactly 20 years ago today that schoolboy Damilola Taylor was stabbed and killed in peckham, in a crime which shocked the nation. It led to tough questions about the drivers of Youth Violence in the capital. Reverend Denise Parnell set up a youth club the same year because of concerns over the safety of local children. She says she had hoped to see more progress in the two decades since damilolas death. The street is still the street. In the streets, the things that i was hearing 20 years ago im still hearing. But what i could add as a positive note is that at least there is a lot more Community Collaboration with the police. And you can see more on the legacy of Damilola Taylor this evening on bbc london in our programme at 6 30. Lets take a look at the travel situation now. Theres a good service on the tubes this morning. On great Great Northern trains there are delays and cancellations between moorgate and Finsbury Park because of a points failure. 15 minute delays and some cancellations between grays and upminster. On the a40, the usual delays eastbound through perivale. He now the weather with kate kinsella. Good morning. Its a rather grey, misty and murky start out there this morning. The met office has issued a yellow weather warning for the dense fog. Visibility reduced to under 100 metres in some spots. Its also very cold, temperatures hovering around zero celsius first thing. So a frost, but also, that fog could freeze. Through the day that fog is going to be very stubborn. Its barely going to lift. Some places staying underneath it for much of the day. If thats you, its going to feel colder. Temperatures between four and nine celsius. If it starts to lift its likely to lift into low cloud. We are going to see a very slow moving warm front moving across us overnight, coming from the south, bringing outbreaks of rain. Its also importing some milder air. We are likely to see some mist and murkiness redeveloping by dawn. But the minimum temperature between four and eight celsius. For saturday morning, it should be above zero. A bit misty and murky though, lifting gradually into cloud. Largely dry, temperatures double figures. For sunday, similar conditions but a little colder. Im back with the latest from the bbc london newsroom in half an hour. Plenty more on our website at the usual address. Now though its back to charlie and naga. Bye for now. Hello, this is breakfast with Charlie Stayt and naga munchetty. More than a third of england will be placed under the toughest level of coronavirus restrictions next week, when the National Lockdown ends. But several backbenchers say the rules imposed on their constituencies are too harsh. Lets speak now to the housing and communities secretary, robertjenrick. Thank you very much forjoining us this morning. Good morning. Good morning. How absolute are these tier allocations . Will any change between now and then . Well, the tier are the tier allocations are set now. They will be voted on in parliament. They will be voted on in parliament. They will be a viewpoint on the 16th of december. So those areas on the cusp of one or other of the tier 2, there is every reason to believe that with a collective effort in those communities they could come down at or before christmas. The tier allocations have been designed very carefully with our scientific advisers, based on a number of factors looking at the rate of infection in an area, the rate of infection in an area, the rate of infection amongst the over 605, the people most likely to be unwell. What is going on in local hospitals and whether cases are rising or falling in any one area. Is there any possibility that these two allocations will be changed before december the 2nd, after the debate . We are going to listen to the views of colleagues in the debate, but no, the allocations now have been set. Thats been done in a rigorous process , thats been done in a rigorous process, taking the advice of the chief medical officer and his team, looking at all of the data that is available against five different criteria. Robert jenrick, i am sorry to interrupt. You have gone through the five criteria. What i want to pick up on his we spoke to tobias ellwood, a conservative mp. And one of his points that he has made, you say you use the latest data, one of his points is that the data being usedis his points is that the data being used is from last week so by the time these two allocations coming next week, they will be two weeks old. Why dont you use up to date data, which will be available next week, hence there could be the possibility that the data could influence the tier allocations on december the 2nd . Is that a possibility . We used the most current Data Available at the point at which we took the decision. We also chose that it was better to announce the likely tier that places we re announce the likely tier that places were going to go into, a few days ahead of the 2nd of december. Remember, there are businesses here whose livelihoods are at stake and they will want to start to plan. They will need some notice as to whether they should be restocking their stories, whether they should be restocking theirstories, preparing whether they should be restocking their stories, preparing to open pubs or restaurants, even if that is only for takeaway and delivery services. And so the decision, it was better to announce it a few days ahead of time rather thanjust was better to announce it a few days ahead of time rather than just on the absolute eve of the restrictions changing. Ithink the absolute eve of the restrictions changing. I think that is the right judgment. Obviously we will continue to review the situation ahead of the review point that will happen on the 16th of december. You have said the likely tier. I asked earlier if these tier allocations are absolute, if they are not going to change. Is it likely, or are they absolutely not going to change . No, they are not going to change . No, they are not going to change. I use that term because there is going to be debate and a vote in parliament. This is subject to aim approval in parliament. The allocations are what they are. The scientific advisers, it was a ministerial decision based on scientific advice. In each case there was a balanced judgment. Where areas were finally balanced finally balanced, we did ask the scientific advisers what the likely forecast would be in the coming days and weeks for those areas, so we took the most current Data Available and considered what was likely to happen over the course of the next few days or weeks. I listened very carefully to the conference yesterday with chris whitty and sir Patrick Vallance and the Prime Minister. And one of the things that was clear is, regardless of what tea orany was clear is, regardless of what tea or any area was clear is, regardless of what tea orany area is was clear is, regardless of what tea or any area is in, was clear is, regardless of what tea orany area is in, the rate was clear is, regardless of what tea or any area is in, the rate of increase, the number of cases is still going to rise, what will be affected is the rate of increase. So how effective is tier 3 in the fact that case numbers are still going to rise . Well, the tier system we had previously before these new National Measures was working, but it was not working as effectively as i think we would have liked it too. So that is the idea behind these new tiers. Tier 2 and tier 3 are significantly stronger. That does give us every reason to believe that in most parts of the country those in tier tier 2 will see a flattening, if not a full and those in tier 3 should see a fault. Cases are falling in most parts of the country already. But there are some places, some parts of kent, for example, where they are still rising. I think you are going to see a continued rise in some places. As we see the lag time from the start of the National Measures. Then we should start to see a flattening out, a fall in most parts of the country. You are talking about the rate of increase, not the number of cases . The number of cases should fall into three certainly. My understanding from watching the press co nfe re nce understanding from watching the press conference yesterday, what would fall is the rate of increase, the rate would fall, nothing number cases . Well, the number of cases is quite high, as we know. But we should start to see a flattening out of that in all of the tiers, but particularly those placed in tier 2 and tier 3. How does a region come out of tier 3 . What levels, what numbers should the region is aim for . They have been given these five criteria you laid out at the start of this interview. But there is no detail in terms of, here is an absolute number of cases per 100,000, here is a number of overwhelmed hospitalfacilities 100,000, here is a number of overwhelmed hospital facilities etc. When that detail be laid out . Well, we thought about doing that and the advice of the scientific experts. The conclusion was that you couldnt have just absolute numbers overall orfor any one have just absolute numbers overall or for any one of the five criteria. You needed to take into account local circumstances, because there can be particularities in a particular place which has an impact either increasing or lowering the rate of infection. For example, if there was an outbreak in a particular workplace, a school, a prison, something that might distort the numbers in any one local Authority Area. And so what was needed was to look at the numbers against each of the five tests and then take a balanced judgment. That is not just taken then take a balanced judgment. That is notjust taken by central government. We will also be working with local government as well, particularly the delko the local directors of health, the people with the statutory response ability for looking at peoples out in a particular part of the country. Response ability. As we approach the 16th of december, there will be a process by which local and National GovernmentWork Together to judge those five tests and come to a sensible conclusion so you mentioned of the issue about variations between regions. In kent, for example, Tunbridge Wells has a very, very low number of cases compared to another part of kent and the medway towns, yet the people of Tunbridge Wells, who have done everything right, the businesses have done everything right, iwas right, the businesses have done everything right, i was seeing, right, the businesses have done everything right, iwas seeing, in their immediate area, low cases, they are being punished because the data, it appears, they are being punished because the data, itappears, cant look they are being punished because the data, it appears, cant look at more tight regions and is now, there is a must like a blanket tier, so certain regions are being punished because of one particular high rate in a region. Do you see why some businesses will feel hard done by . can see that, but thats not quite right. We are looking at the data in every local authority. The lower tier local authorities. We are looking at the data there as well as at higher levels in counties or cities like london, or combined authorities like manchester, for example. We have learned over the course of the year that sometimes if you try to hide out relatively small areas, that can be counter productive. Because people inevitably move around for work, perhaps for school. For shopping. And that can quickly lead to the virus spreading to those places. So to give you a few examples, dudley was taken out of some of the measures that were brought into place in the Black Country and the West Midlands earlier in the year. Very quickly the cases started rise in dudley. To look at slightly larger units of geography. And look at the places where people move around those working patterns and the hospitals that people rely on when we come to thesejudgments. That people rely on when we come to these judgments. The downside of thatis these judgments. The downside of that is that example i gave you of Tunbridge Wells, there is such a disparity in that large area. There is but we are doing those places a disservice if they are temporarily hived out and put into a lower tier only to find the rate of infection rapidly rises in that place. That is the test and trace system. That is a big if. That is when the test and trace big if. That is when the test and tra ce syste m big if. That is when the test and trace system will come into use . Recent experience suggests it doesnt always work. And you are seeing when you do place. Rapidly the cases start to rise. People do go shopping they do go to work school and college. The virus does not expect the boundaries of boroughs are districts it spreads much more rapidly and freely than that. Does test and trace work that is what the evidence against us every area in the country. We will listen to the views of the if we do make the tiered system work, there is every reason to believe they disc de escalate de escalate. We have heard from many in the conservative party who are furious at being put into tier 3 or tier 2 at being put into tier 3 or tier 2 at this point in time, and they believe the system isnt fair. And how the government came to a decision on these tears. Do you think the public will comply . decision on these tears. Do you think the public will comply . I hope so, ithink think the public will comply . I hope so, i think most people would agree that we are going to have a localised approach, we dont want a blanket lockdown. Its better that we are cautious where we place areas into the tiers soap with an effort, they can be de escalated rather than having to rise up the tears as we saw earlier in the year. And what is different now to just a few years ago is the good news on the vaccine front. So we can all see that there is very much light at the end of the tunnel. There is likely to be, or are likely to be vaccines in circulation, people being vaccinated, before the end of the year, and that will rise quite rapidly into next year. So the effort for us all as a country now is to make the tiered system work for the period of time we have left, until vaccines start to be rolled out to a significant proportion of the population. Robert jenrick, thank you for your time this morning. So mike, good morning. We have seen those extraordinary scenes in argentina. The effect maradonas death there has had become a quite extraordinary. Now we are seeing the image behind you, some of the clubs he played for are marking his career . Absolutely. Especially the city of naples in italy where his impact went beyond football. He transformed the city and the club. They started to punch above their weight and beat the perceived big clu bs. Weight and beat the perceived big clubs. It meant so much to them. As the fans and club paid tribute, the citys mayor said, you leave us with a great testament of what it means to be a man of fragility, strength and absolute love for life and ones neighbour. Thousands of fans gathered outside the stadium last night, ahead of their Europa League match, and the ground was lit up in his honour. Then all the players and staff, wore his iconic number tenjer5ey in a minutes silence. And napoli are also planning to rename their stadium after maradona. Some football clubs in england are preparing for the return of a limited number of fans from next wednesday. But its only teams outside the tightest tier 3 restrictions, and thats led to claims that it gives those clubs an unfair advantage. With london in tier 2, arsenal will be the First Premier League club to open its gates again, with 2,000 fans at the emirates on thursday, for their Europa League game against rapid vienna. The Rugby League Season has been massively disrupted by covid 19. But we still have a Super League Grand final tonight, between two of the sports great rivals wigan warriors and reigning champions st helens. The game has been switched from old trafford to hull for the first time, and itll be played behind closed doors, of course. Adam wild reports. St helens, Super League Champions this is super leagues biggest moment. Now, a year on, such scenes feel a world away. 2020 has become the games road to hull, a destination no one expected, a journey some thought might never end. Rugby league has had to come a long way. Its been a pretty rubbish year for a lot of people, hasnt it . And a lot of people have suffered some sort of hardship, you know. Ijust think it would be a really great way we could say thank you and give everyone a bit of a boost. When the season began ten months ago, no one would have believed what was about to happen. Just weeks after the start, came the stop. For one club, toronto wolfpack, the pause would become permanent. Unable to recover from the lockdown, the team once heralded as the games future, suddenly consigned to its past. With no games and no income, the whole sport was in such unparalleled peril, the government was forced to step in. Rugby league is to receive an emergency loan of £16 million from the government because of the pandemic. Ministers say they are intervening to protect an entire sport and the communities that play it. When the season finally resumed in august, the world felt a very different place. Empty stadia, neutralvenues, even changes to the rules of the game. Rugby league adapted, but could it survive . The season was eventually shortened straight to the play offs. For wigan and st helens its been some journey. The friendships that ive made along the way, such a crazy year. Ill remember that sort of thing forever. I think thats made, you know, the connection between our team mates are stronger. Thats what i take away from this. Its good for the game that weve managed to get through the season and get to an end, because of easy things were looking a bit bleak early on. But to have the grand final at the end of it meant that all the hard work weve done in lockdown has all been worthwhile. Its a big match entrance thats as loud and is hair raising as any other. St helens and wigan last met in the final six years ago. But theirs is a local rivalry that runs much, much deeper. Tonights final will look very different. The venue now hull, and of course, no fans. But the significance remains. And in this extraordinary year, more than any other, the champions would have truly earned it. Adam wild, bbc news. Well done. Despite all the adversity it should be a great grand final. It is live on bbc radio. From eight oclock. Thank you. See you later. Time for the weather. Matt is at a Christmas Tree farm in oxfordshire for us this morning. Matt is in control of the drawing. Look how he is making it work and glide effortlessly over the farm in oxfordshire.

Would you have to look after your tree, dont you . Would you have to look after your tree, dont you . Its essential. And actually, my first advice, if you are buying a tree or you have already bought a three. Standard ina already bought a three. Standard in a bucket of water. Standard in the garden or your balcony, where it is cool, damp and its not getting overheated and dehydrated. Moisture is the key, isnt it . Keeping of well fed almost . Absolutely. Its important to get a tree thats heavy. If you have got a heavy tree is full of water. When you take it into the house it loses water. Your best bet is to stand it in a stand, not next to a radiator or an open fire, preferably not a 24 hour underfloor heating. As cool as you can, ina underfloor heating. As cool as you can, in a window frame, Something Like that. Right, where having a few problems in a moment. We will come back shortly. I will hand back to nag and charlie. We should just say, the problems i just nag and charlie. We should just say, the problems ijust with the sand. But this is a fantastic overhead shot. We will go back. Dont worry. Matt will have the full Weather Forecast for you. We will get him in just a few minutes. He will fill in all the blanks. Of course we will. Last christmas.

This year, she wants to do it all again and has covered another another festive favourite lets take a look. Snow is falling all around me. Snow is falling all around me. Children playing, having fun. Children playing, having fun. Is children playing, having fun. Is the season of love and understanding. Merry Christmas Everyone. Lets speak to lyra and her auntie, jessie, who helped her launch her singing career. Good morning. Isaw good morning. I saw you swaying along to that. You are not bored of that song at all i can also see the Christmas Tree is up. You have gone early. Well done. We have, yeah. Getting into the Christmas Spirit. Is that of the naughty elf thing . Yes so basically the naughty elf goes around the house doing mischievous things. Good morning. Did you choose the music, lyra . How did you choose which song you are going to sing . Because me and my auntie chose that song because we thought we would do really well with it and then we just did it and we did really well with it. Lyra, i would like you, for those people who dont know, lyra, about your story, but what happened and why all of this is so important to you, can you tell us a little bit about when you are younger and the problems you had when you were much younger . So i couldnt see that well and i was really poorly. Well, i think that is kind ofan really poorly. Well, i think that is kind of an understatement, isnt it . Jesse, can you tell people a little bit more about what happened . Yeah, so when lyra was six months old she got really sick. At first we thought it was just the flu. She was then rushed into hospital and diagnosed with a brain tumour. We rightly told at one point that she might not make it through. Just an absolutely devastating thing for any parent to hear, for the whole family. She had a1a hear, for the whole family. She had a 14 hour operation and thankfully she pulled through and she is with us today. So. Iwill tell you what, that makes the money you are going to raise that makes it so special for you because you going to raise that makes it so specialfor you because you know that lots of people will benefit . Yeah. Lyra, tell us about making the video as well, it looked like lots of fun. What did it involve . Did it ta ke of fun. What did it involve . Did it take ages to do . Yeah. It took ages.

We will find out what its really like behind the scenes. Robert lee a lot of you this morning scratching your heads, checking the details about what tier you are in. That is the focus of our programme this morning. Lets look at how some of the papers are reflecting on those announcements yesterday. Here is the metro. The north sees red. The Prime Minister is facing a furious backlash, it says. We have heard some of that this morning. Tobias ellwood, the mp for bournemouth east, talking to us about that. The government saying areas under the toughest restrictions will receive no additionalfinancial restrictions will receive no additional financial help. The times says after borisjohnsons assurance that every area has the means of escape from the toughest restrictions, government sources have said, one government source the papers quoting, says they would not expect any area to change to two until the start of the year. A warning to families not to hug or kiss their elderly relatives at christmas. That is notjust anecdotal. That was when the press conference yesterday. The chief medical adviser, professor chris whittys advice to people. Do not hug or kiss your elderly relatives was his message. We will be talking about this throughout the programme. We are taking a look at what is happening in bristol and in kent where there are varying degrees of rates of infection etc and concerns about how long areas will stay in their specific tier 2. We will have all of that. Headlines shortly. Good morning, welcome to breakfast with Charlie Stayt and naga munchetty. Our headlines today. A call for a rethink as most people in england are told theyll enter the two toughest tiers after lockdown. The Prime Ministerfaces an angry reaction from some of his backbench mp5. Theres concern also from businesses im in Tunbridge Wells where many are asking why a town with low infections rates has been placed in the highest tier. Amid chaotic scenes of passion and disorder football legend maradona is laid to rest in buenos aires theres no better time to talk about families the duchess of of cambridges message as she launches some Major New Research on parenting. And i am at andiam ata and i am at a Christmas Tree farm in oxfordshire. Are you planning to get yea rs oxfordshire. Are you planning to get years this weekend . You will want to know how to look after it. I will have the forecast including lots of frost and fog this morning. Coming up. Good morning. Its friday november the 27th. Our top story. The Prime Minister is facing resistance from some of his backbench mp5 over the three tiers of coronavirus restrictions which will be brought in when englands lockdown ends next week. The allocation of tiers was announced yesterday but several backbenchers say the rules imposed on their constituencies are too harsh. Mp5 get a chance to vote on the new rules on tuesday. Before we get more on that political situation, lets have a reminder of what those various levels of Restrictions Mean. The vast majority of england is in the two strictest tiers thats tiers 2 and 3. No one is allowed to socialise indoors with people who are not in their household but in either tier you can socialise outside with up to six people from outside your household. In tier 2 you can go to a restaurant or pub as long as it serves food with members of your household. In tier 3 pubs and restaurants are closed apart from takeaway orders. A tiny proportion of the country those living in the isle of wight, cornwall and the scilly isles are in tier1. That means they can meet up with up to six people from outside their household and they can do so indoors, outdoors, and in hospitality venues. Our Political Correspondent iain watson is in westminster. Good morning. So many elements today stop there are no easy decisions to be made here. But lots of people sitting at home this morning, possibly scratching their heads thinking, how is it where i live, is in this tiered area, somewhere else down the road is different, so many questions, and then theres the politics which could become crucial when there is abode next week. Thats right. Lets deal briefly with the politics first, charlie. A rebellion which the government is facing next week. Quite a lot of conservative mp5 speaking out against the restrictions including steve baker, behind what was the European Research group, evolved into the Covid Recovery group and he has talked about authoritarianism by his own government, truly appalling measures, they are trying to ensure more than 40 conservative mp5 will rebel next week because the government has a majority of 40, 40 rebelled they could say effectively the government does not have its majority any longer. I think it is likely to be bailed out by Labour Party Votes but they want something in return, economic support, consultation, but a big show of strength is likely by conservative mp5 next week. Dealing with the head scratching, i think that is because the government has decided to pose its own restrictions based on administrative boundaries, county or regional level and some areas say for goodness sake, in our locality there is an incredibly low prevalence of the virus and this has upset for example some former cabinet ministers, greg clark, damian green, mp5 for kent, who say it isa damian green, mp5 for kent, who say it is a big county, the virus is at different stages across the county, white lump everywhere together, this one size fits all approach has upset conservative politicians in lincolnshire and lancashire. Robert jenrick the communities secretary on this programme earlier defended that way of doing things, he said it was much better to do that than at a very local level but he held out some hope that there will be a review on december the 16th of the measures which have been imposed and he suggested it will be possible at that stage, for people to move between tiered systems. He said the review would be meaningful and we could see at least some hope for people still scratching their heads before christmas. There will be a meaningful review on or around the 16th of december. At that point we will review the evidence against those five tests for every local Authority Area in the country, we will listen to the views of the local councils and their directors of Public Health and there is a numberof of Public Health and there is a number of places which are quite finely balanced across the country today which could have been, or there was a strong case to be in a tiered system that is there was a strong case to be in a tiered system that is 1 degrees lower where they have ended up but ona lower where they have ended up but on a balanced judgment they were in the tiered system above so in those places, and perhaps others, if people follow the rules, if we do make the tiered system work, then as i say there is every reason to believe they could de escalate and go down at your in time for christmas. Hopeful message from robertjenrick but he says this is based on scientific and medical advice i think there will be some Political Considerations as well. For example on the one hand, if some areas currently in tier 3 move to tier 2, that will give people a reason for hope and perhaps encourage people in other areas in tier 3 to stick to the rules longer because they might get what the Prime Minister called an escape route but the flip of that, if you do that just route but the flip of that, if you do thatjust before christmas, that may seem risky because there will be the five day relaxation over christmas so i think perhaps the scientists and the medical advisers might say to the government, hold your horses, wait untiljanuary, lets see the effects of the christmas measures. A message of hope from robertjenrick but not guaranteed. For the moment, thank you. Breakfasts john maguire is in bristol, which will face the strictest restrictions tier 3 when the lockdown ends. Good morning. What we are hearing, businesses, people, devastated by the prospect of at least the next two weeks after the 2nd of december, tightened measures. Such a crucial time of year, isnt it, especially for the hospitality sector, and retail as well. They earn so much money in the run up to christmas, frantically busy time, people would have been hoping to reopen next week but really the numbers spoke for themselves. The writing was on the wall over the last couple of weeks. We are here at the harbour side in bristol, an area with lots of bars, restau ra nts, bristol, an area with lots of bars, restaurants, hotels, they will not be opening as they would have hoped to have done next week. Lets talk to have done next week. Lets talk toa to have done next week. Lets talk to a couple of business owners, josh and kieran. The news came yesterday, what was your reaction . We werent surprised but bitterly disappointed. When we went into the second lockdown we were told we would come out on the 2nd of december, previously tier 3, it meant that we could trade. The change in tier 3 has really affected us. Brittle crystal has jumped from tier1 up to tier 3, the strictest restrictions, are you still able to trade at the moment . You can pivot your business or trade in some capacity but ultimately you are running a loss making ultimately you are running a loss making enterprise by ultimately you are running a loss making enterprise by doing so. What we are looking for a stronger government support. The measures they have put in place so far such as vat reduction only benefits business when you can trade 15 reduction on that and that is nothing. Are you able to do take away . We are doing takeaway from all our operations and it is really well supported, a massive thank you to the general public who are supporting independent businesses. It will keep our staff engaged, the brand alive but it wont save many businesses long term, and its such a key time for hospitality and we need to get trading. Josh, same questions to you, did it come as a surprise . Not much of a surprise, based on the numbers, we could see what was going to happen but for me, i think its really important we get this under control and we save lives first and thats really important but when we can reopen, as kieran said, we will need that support, the vat reduction to stay in place. I think it should stay that way all the way, yet that rate cut in place and give us a whole year of 2021 to re cover and give us a whole year of 2021 to recover and get the industry back on track. So many changes over the last eight months, so many different situations, the eat out to help out scheme, but all of the disadvantages so how have you managed to cope . guess at the end of the day the we can react quickly and be entrepreneurial, we can do take and pivot but you only do that for so long and if everybody does the same thing there isnt going to be enough that will make the industry supportive so we need help to get back open. Thank you both very much indeed. Shoppers and not surprised, number speaking for themselves, going certainly in bristol and other parts of this part of the country in the west but not far enough to keep bristol and the surrounding counties, that surrounding North Somerset and South Gloucestershire area out of tier 3. Back to you. John, thank you. Looking at the mist there this morning, looked rather magnificent earlier, quite spectacular look at that. Its freezing john, did you say it is freezing . Yes. John, what is it like . It is freezing, i can tell you. Tell matt taylor to warm things up a little bit its happening everywhere today, people settling back and thinking what is going to be like in whatever tiered system we are established in . Lets look at Northern Ireland now. Northern ireland has re entered a two week lockdown and non essential shops have closed. Cafes, hairdressers and beauticians have also shut just seven days after they were allowed to re open following the last lockdown. The devolved government said the restrictions, which end on december 11th, are crucial to give people the safest christmas possible. The argentine football legend Diego Maradona has been buried in a private ceremony on the outskirts of buenos aires. His death at the age of 60 has triggered a huge outpouring of public grief in argentina, tens of thousands of people queued up to view his coffin in the president ial palace. Our south america correspondent katy watson reports. Followed to the end by his loyal fans, so many of whom couldnt believe or accept that the superstar footballer was dead. In the end, though, maradona, a man so often in the limelight, had a very private burial, laid to rest next to his beloved mum and dad. These past few days have been emotional in argentina. Theres been a very public outpouring of grief for a man people saw notjust as the worlds greatest footballer, but the countrys finest ambassador as well. Translation its a loss notjust for argentina but for the entire world. There wont be anyone like him ever again. As a kid, we all wanted to be maradona. I was born in the same hospital as him. Translation for me, hes not dead, hes still alive. Hell be in my heart forever. It was such big news, i wanted to come here no matter what. I managed it and im really happy. Amid tears and sadness, there were lighter moments. Chanting and singing to remember the good times. But as the day went on, emotions ran high as fans waited in line. At one point, they broke down the barrier and riot police were drafted in. The coffin had to be removed from public viewing to keep the peace. Maradona wasnt perfect. He battled drug addiction, he had his flaws. But he came from nothing and neverforgot his roots. And argentinians say that he wont be forgotten either. Katy watson, bbc news, in buenos aires. The scenes. Gives you a sense of what he meant to the nation. Mike show us later, footballers played wearing the number ten shirt to maradona in tribute. Its 14 minutes past eight. Its time for the weather matt is at a Christmas Tree farm in oxfordshire for us this morning. We couldnt resist showing you this view. Absolutely stunning. That strip of green, all Christmas Trees, ready to be picked up and put in peoples houses. Ready to be picked up and put in peoples houses. Some were down there, matt taylor is in amongst the trees good morning. 120,000 trees here, and quite if you will disappear. Anything from this size, to ones that are the size of ben thompson and higher. It is cold down here this morning, i have lost feeling in my toes. As you saw from john, a little bit chilly across the uk. Lets get on with the forecast. Frost and fog is that dual issue, particularly across parts of england. It is especially dense across parts of the south midlands, south east wales, the south west, and it could linger all day. We have and it could linger all day. We have a thick area of cloud towards the south coast, producing some patchy rain and drizzle. And across scotla nd rain and drizzle. And across scotland and Northern Ireland, a week where the front means grey skies with light rain and drizzle for one or two. Most of the country is dry. A little sunshine for some, and if you get the sunshine today, around seven or 8 degrees. Often lots of cloud around. Where it stays misty and murky, all day long, temperatures may only be about two or three degrees this afternoon. It will be chilly. England and wales, not as cold. A bit more cloud around, some rain or drizzle at times. Scotland and Northern Ireland, a frost around until tomorrow morning. Into the weekend, it looks like the best morning brightness will be across scotland and Northern Ireland. Clouding over from the south. Lots of cloud for england and wales, Early Morning rain and drizzle to the north and west. That will clear. The best of the sunshine in the afternoon for england and wales towards the south coast and english channel. Feeling less cold across southern areas tomorrow. Overall, some chilly days and slowly turning a little less chilly as we go into sunday. Another full forecast for you before nine oclock. Just because it is there, we have gone from you to a better picture, no offence. It looks lovely from high above. A glorious image, really is. Im quite keen to know, if you dont know our team, they were not really know what a mass size tree is and a ben sized tree is, we need to find a picture of them both together. Matt. Find a picture of them both together. Matt. Lets leave him in his forest of trees. Lets go back to the main story. Lots of questions being asked by everyone, but businesses in particular. Restaurants, pubs, bars and hotels are once again counting the cost of the new post lockdown restrictions announced yesterday. The tier system has also thrown up some anomalies in areas like kent, where transmission rates vary dramatically across the county. Bens in Tunbridge Wells for us and can explain whats going on. No tree, but plants and foliage around him. We interviewed robert jenrick, the housing and communities minister earlier, to try to get an idea of why you can see such disparities. You will explain what is going on in Tunbridge Wells . Good morning. We were listening to that, as everyone, trying to get a few a nswe rs as everyone, trying to get a few a nswers to as everyone, trying to get a few answers to some of these strange anomalies that are cropping up across the country. Let me explain the anomaly here. We are in Tunbridge Wells, relatively rural, two minutes down the road from here is east sussex, where they are in tier 2. In Tunbridge Wells, it is tf three, because they are lumped in with the more urban areas, which are about an hour from with the more urban areas, which are about an hourfrom here. Things like swale, thanet, where infection rates are much higher. Therefore, in tf three, like this place, it means that bars, restaurants, hotels, cannot open. At this time of year, this place would be full of christmas diners. They have a big wedding venue, a barand christmas diners. They have a big wedding venue, a bar and restaurant downstairs. They simply cannot open. It is coming off the back of all of the other restrictions, course. Let me introduce you to andrew from the cou nty me introduce you to andrew from the county chamber of commerce. Tf three, a lot of businesses waking up in kentand three, a lot of businesses waking up in kent and wondering why, and also what it means for them . It will have come as a huge shock to many people, many businesses will be expecting tier 2. Today is a really bad day, especially for leisure and hospitality. There will be winners, retailers can open, gyms and hairdressers, but what business wants some consistency, so we can plan for the future. I was explaining some of the geographical anomalies, that you are much closer to east sussex, in tier 2, to some of the high infection levels in this pa rt of the high infection levels in this part of the world, yet you are lumped in with the same group. You would like to see more regional, local restrictions . I think so. The problem for kent is that there are one unitary and 12 districts, and we travel between them all the time. Its not as if we have a sheffield, manchester or leeds, a big conurbation. Businesses, people travel for leisure, shopping, work, going for school and college. Sol can understand why they have done it, but it is a challenge. What we would like to see is the evidence. We look at places like berkshire, they are in there all the time at they are in there all the time at the moment, slough is tf three, but the moment, slough is tf three, but the rest of berkshire is tf two. So there is some inconsistency which is difficult for businesses to plan for. Yeah, really difficult to plan for. Yeah, really difficult to plan for. Lets get a sense for what it means for some of those individual businesses. Well, you run a farm shop, a farm of sorts and a restau ra nt, shop, a farm of sorts and a restaurant, maybe ten miles or so away from here. You cant open. You we re away from here. You cant open. You were really hoping that this time of year would be when you could claw back some cash . 100 . This was our saving grace. We went through the rough part of the pinning of the year, like everybody else. We got a blip again in summer, and we thought, lets get a good december and our out thought, lets get a good december and ouroutand thought, lets get a good december and our out and see what january and february brings. Because you are in a position where you grow a lot of your produce, you have been rearing a loss to sell in the shop for the restau ra nt, a loss to sell in the shop for the restaurant, what do you do with that stuff if you cant sell it . Restaurant, what do you do with that stuff if you cant sell it . Thats the big question, isnt it . Its difficult for restaurants, we are down on revenue, we have no customers, but we are a customer for many other suppliers as well. For example, tom, we grew turkeys together and started that in may, there are 200 turkeys waiting and we cant use them. Lots other suppliers, gym distilleries, breweries, lots of farm shops that we normally purchase from, that are now down in revenue, too. The knock on effect is massive. Now down in revenue, too. The knockon effect is massive. How long can you go on for . That is the question, we dont really want to think about it. We are going to keep plugging away. It is hospitality, adapt and survive. We have the online shop offering, who knows, a couple of months, maybe more. We need some support. couple of months, maybe more. We need some support. I hope you get that. Good luck, a lot of work ahead. Well, who runs a restaurant on farm shop around the corner. For all sorts of businesses, it is really, really tough right now. There is some good news, if you are a hairdresser, gyms and shops can reopen, even though it is tier 3. But for hospitality, they are asking a lot of questions about why it seems that they are being singled out for some tough restrictions that will mean it is a very, very tough christmas. It is tough, and scary. We are getting a real sense of that, when you think of when this finishes. You know, with the hope of a vaccine . Yes, and as you are hearing, it is about eat out to help out, encouraging people out. They thought there was a reprieve, they got people back into work. Remember, the businesses take time to gear up again. You cant just businesses take time to gear up again. You cantjust reopen tomorrow. Its about planting crops in the spring, rearing turkeys all year round, get any of these places up year round, get any of these places up and running. They were planning on being able to do it next week, now they are on to the 16th of december, and even then, its only a few days before it is the 23rd to the 28th and the easing of restrictions for christmas, where they expect everybody to go home and see people. It is that narrow window where they are trying to make some money. It is by no means clear they can do that. Good to see you. Thanks very much. We are trying to give you a snapshot of various places across the uk. We will concentrate on hull. Radio hull, the east riding, north and North East Lincolnshire will all be put into tier 3. All quiet in hull at a time of year that should be bustling. Boarded up shops are waiting to reopen from wednesday. For some though, the wait has gone on far too long. Tier 3, gareth. How do you feel about that . Yeah, still worried, but happy at the same time. Its an awkward one. A lot of people dont believe covid is really true. Still . Yeah, still. Gareth tells me five of his relatives have had the virus in a city which has one of the worst infection rates in the country. To help turn the corner they now face the most severe tier 3 restrictions. Across town window cleaner paul tells me covid has knocked the stuffing out of him and his business. Ive had three weeks in bed with the virus. It affects everybody different. I got the full monty, i got a good backside kicking. How much income do you think youve lost . Ive lost about 25 to 30 of my business. It is what it is, and weve got to deal with it. There will be no christmas celebrations in any of these restaurants. Tier 3 means takeaway only. The lights in what was once the piper nightclub perfectly sum up what manager tom is hoping. Its time to check. Hes about to find out which tier his city will be in, if his club, reimagined as a bar, can reopen. Listen, before you do that, before you do that, just tell me the difference for you between it being tier 2 and tier 3 . Yeah, monumental. Its. Its the difference between it being very bad and catastrophic. Weve overcome quite a lot to get to this point. Wed been operating as a nightclub in march. We operated as a bar from july. And we was ready to take a bit of a plunge and operate as a restaurant from december. Tier 3. Tier 3 it is. Devastating really. After lockdown mark one, the government pledged schools would be spared shutdowns. From the 2nd of december, Hull City Council will be in tier 3, very high alert. Thats not a surprise to anybody in hull, i dont think, this morning. And thats probably necessary to keep our rates coming down, because the most important thing is that the rates fall and everybody is safe. And the best place for children is to be in school. But with almost half of the School Population spending two weeks in self isolation this term, covid has still taken a hit. Hi, mum, hi, dad conversations like this between helen, mum iris and dad jack have taken place across england. Lockdown is ending and youre not going to be able to see the kids. Helens husband works on the rigs and she has a toddler and a new lockdown baby matilda to look after on her own. The isolation is the hard part. So basically, my parents have bubbled with my grandma. Its mentally, emotionally hard. Hopefully, next christmas, the family can have a proper christmas and be together, really. Restrictions are reviewed every two weeks. And infections are coming down here. But quick enough to turn the corner out of tier 3 and into tier 2 before christmas, hull has a tough road ahead. Jayne mccubbin, bbc news. No question, it will be difficult for a lot of people in different places across the uk. What better time to start with some of the basics with our health editor, hugh pym . He will answer some of our questions. Are you ready to take us through some of the important stuff . I will do my best. Good morning. Lovely to see you. We are going to start with something that goes to the basis of what everybody is asking, how are the different tiers decided . There are all sorts of questions being asked in different areas of england, why are we are not tierand areas of england, why are we are not tier and not that one . The government made it clear there were tests that they were going to apply to each area. It wasnt some secret decision made without any transparency. The tests, basically, are that you look at case numbers, that case numbers among the over 60s, and then whether they are going up 60s, and then whether they are going up or coming down. Then the number of positive tests as a percentage of all tests. And then the pressure on the local nhs. That one is really important, actually. To quote one example, cornwall is one of the few areas remaining in tier 1. Example, cornwall is one of the few areas remaining in tier1. Tier2 will include devon, just over the river. One of the reasons there is pressure on one of the main hospitals, the royal devon and exeter, they have had to open the Nightingale Hospital in exeter to ta ke Nightingale Hospital in exeter to take covid patients. I think the same argument is being applied in kent, however much frustration there might be, the pressure on the nhs for the whole area will be one of the reasons. However difficult, as we have been hearing, that may be for people in different parts of the county. So, when an area is in a tier, how can it go up or down . One example that was much quoted by ministers is liverpool, which was in tier3, but it ministers is liverpool, which was in tier 3, but it has come down into tier 3, but it has come down into tier 2. That was announced yesterday. One reason is that infections, which were very high amongst the highest in england, as a percentage of the population, have come down by two thirds. One reason is because they were in tier 3, tier 3 plus, as it is known, with extra restrictions, and then they started doing mass testing of the community. The authorities in liverpool think there two policies really helped, particularly the previous restrictions. That is seen as an example of the way out. There have been question marks in liverpool about how much testing really was a factor in all of this. How much was just reflecting restrictions before . Other areas come down a tier before christmas, i think that is highly unlikely. The Health Officials and ministers will have to look, and there is a possibility of moving down in the new year, or even moving up, sadly, depending on local infection data. A lot of the communications around these things revolve around christmas. It is a lwa ys revolve around christmas. It is always worth making a point, and it has been used several times by the medics and politicians, that the pandemic, the coronavirus, pays no heed to what day of the year it is. Nonetheless, people are talking about the rules that we know about. People have got their heads around what happens after that immediate period over christmas. So, how does the tier you are in related to the immediate few days around christmas . Well, the basic point about christmas, announced earlier this week, applying to the whole of the uk, is that whatever tier you are in, you are allowed to see relatives and friends as long as it is only three households, your household and two others. You can therefore meet the other two households indoors, or stay overnight. Otherwise, it is your existing tier restrictions. I think thats the best way of looking at it. If you are in tier 3, think thats the best way of looking at it. If you are in tier3, and go to visit someone in tier 2, you can do that, or may be going into tier 1. Do that, or may be going into tier 1, if you have a family in tier 1, and there are not many areas there. The two households, stick with them, otherwise obey your tier rules, even if you have moved into a lower one. Thank you, we will speak to you again for another fact finding mission. And to clarify, chris got in touch, asking when we talk about households, are they including those within your support bubble, yes, support also counts. Good morning from bbc london, im victoria hollins. The mayor has warned londoners not to be complacent after it is was announced yesterday that the capital will be placed in tier 2 restrictions after the National Lockdown ends. London and the Home Counties have been placed in the high alert category. Meanwhile, while slough has been placed in tier 3 the very high alert level which means hospitality venues must must remain closed except for takeaways. Its really important for those of us that go back to the shops, go to the pubs, bars and restaurants, to follow the rules. Its really important we dont inadvertently set our city back by the virus spreading too fast from next wednesday. Thats why its really important, of course, do what you can to support our businesses but do it safely. Its exactly 20 years ago today that schoolboy Damilola Taylor was stabbed and killed in peckham, in a crime which shocked the nation. It led to tough questions about the drivers of Youth Violence in the capital. Reverend Denise Parnell set up a youth club the same year because of concerns over the safety of local children. She says she had hoped to see more progress in the two decades since damilolas death. That street is still the street. In the streets, the things that i was hearing 20 years ago im still hearing. But what i could add as a positive note is that at least there is a lot more Community Collaboration with the police. And you can see more on the legacy of Damilola Taylor this evening on bbc london in our programme at 6 30. Lets take a look at the travel situation now. Theres a good service on the tubes this morning apart from tfl rail which is part suspended shenfield to liverpool street. On the trains Great Northern has delays and cancellations between moorgate and Finsbury Park. And some cancellations between grays and upminster due to a points failure. South western, 15 delays between staines and reading due to poor rail conditions. Theres queuing traffic around the woolwich ferry because theres no service no service due to fog now the weather with kate kinsella. Good morning. Its a rather grey, misty and murky start out there this morning. The met office has issued a yellow weather warning for the dense fog. Visibility reduced to under 100 metres in some spots. Its also very cold, temperatures hovering around zero celsius first thing. So a frost, but also, that fog could freeze. Through the day that fog is going to be very stubborn. Its barely going to lift. Some places staying underneath it for much of the day. If thats you, its going to feel colder. Temperatures between four and nine celsius. If it starts to lift its likely to lift into low cloud. We are going to see a very slow moving warm front moving across us overnight, coming from the south, bringing outbreaks of rain.

As it stands is the Labour Party Going to be able to vote for these measures . My be able to vote for these measures . My apologies, its one of those zoom moments, if im honest, ithought my apologies, its one of those zoom moments, if im honest, i thought i was looking at an image that worked, i thought Jonathan Ashworth was looking at an image that worked, i thoughtJonathan Ashworth was listening intently, in fact, the image has risen, and we arejust waiting to find out if something has changed . I bet everyone has done that, at a moment in time, you are still talking to someone and you imagine the listening. still talking to someone and you imagine the listening. I imagine it is happening forJonathan Ashworth is happening forJonathan Ashworth is welcome often when you are on that site, you dont realise the line has gone down from the other end, hes probably giving his first a nswer end, hes probably giving his first answer as we speak. The good news is we have our best people on the job, ina we have our best people on the job, in a matter of minutes it will be sorted but i think at 8 37am lets move along a little bit and come back. . Move along a little bit and come back. . What are we doing . Hes back lets give this a second goal. Jonathan ashworth, hello hello the internet just went down as Jonathan Ashworth, hello hello the internetjust went down as you ask that question the slightly embarrassing thing is i thought you we re embarrassing thing is i thought you were listening intently to what i was saying but you had risen com pletely was saying but you had risen completely so lets give this another try. Very important question, a lot of people are asking, many questions about the tiered system, as it stands, when there is a vote on tuesday, will the Labour Party Vote in favour of these measures . We are asking the government to offer us some clear reassurances. We want to know whether there is going to be a financial package in place for the areas that are under these lockdown s areas that are under these lockdown 5 this will impact on families and Small Businesses, their livelihoods. We have got places across the country like leicester, where i am today, bolton, South Yorkshire, under versions of lockdown for months and we need are local experts on the ground, trained in this work, to be doing contact tracing. We need to be doing contact tracing. We need to roll out mass testing, ministers saying we have the testing plans coming but they sent the tests two weeks ago to local authorities, thousands of them. They are still not being used. And we need to have the reassurance that we will have proper parliamentary scrutiny. We need votes on these issues, notjust a one off vote but i think the number of votes as decisions are made about what area to move in and out of, in lockdown. Help me with this. Do you, lets separate things out, we talk about the Financial Measures in a moment, lets try and separate things out. Do you have faith in the tiered system and the way the government has come by these decisions . Do you have faith in that . The prevalence of the virus is very high still. It has come down because of the National Lockdown but it is still at a serious level so we understand why tough restrictions are needed and we understand why a tiered approach would be needed that you have to understand and appreciate the huge impact this is going to have. Im sorry, what i wa nt to going to have. Im sorry, what i want to do, if i may, we will talk about the impact but i want to talk about the impact but i want to talk about the impact but i want to talk about the Financial Measures but i am trying to separate things are because some people have said they dont know enough about the criteria for which these decisions and on which these decisions are made, 60 plus infection rate, pressure on the nhs. On that isolated respect, do you think the criteria, as youve been told, are you satisfied that the governments criteria are right incoming to the tiered system they have . No, im not satisfied at the moment because we have a situation where a city like leicester, where i live, parts of Greater Manchester or South Yorkshire have been under a version of lockdown for months, actually 150 days here in leicester and nobody knows how to get out of those lock dance. The government has outlined a set of criteria, that i suggested yesterday, they should publish a scorecard for each area so we can see how each area is doing against each and every one of the criteria because i think it is only fair that families and Small Businesses who are making great sacrifice and need financial help, that they know what the rules are, they know what the guidelines are for how their area moves in and out of these lockdown s for how their area moves in and out of these lockdown 5 so i hope the government takes up our suggestion of the localised scorecard so everybody sees the data, everything is entirely transparent. We are making huge sacrifices, notjust peoples livelihoods but Mental Health as well, when isolated. I think the least the government can do is give people local information. If the government comes up with financial help and be been talking to businesses, very much reflecting what youre saying, who think bristol, for example, our reporter at there this morning talking to people who run restaurants, they say they need more financial help so if, and it is a big if, there is no indication this will be the case, there would be some form of measures in that direction, is that what could get this built over the line for the labour party . We are not against tough restrictions, not against tough restrictions, not against tiered systems, what we want is Financial Support for people, what we want is a proper working test and try system, but we want is proper support for people who need to isolate, people still not getting sick pay for isolation. What we want is clarity for local areas so they can understand why they move in and out of different tiered systems. Those are the points we will put in the coming days but its up to the government, the government has an 80 seat majority, borisjohnson won a general election 12 months ago with a huge majority. He shouldnt really be struggling to get its legislation through the house of commons. On a practical level, the governments argument and we spoke to the communities secretary this morning, robertjenrick, and his argument was there is evidence from other places andi there is evidence from other places and i think he cited wolverhampton, where you cannot go very local with these measures and some people say, why, 30 minutes down the road, why amiin why, 30 minutes down the road, why am i in territory because things are worth 30 minutes down the road, things are good here. I get hit because there is a problem in a location that is a certain distance away. Robertjenrick said this is u nfortu nate away. Robertjenrick said this is unfortunate but it has to be so because that is safer, there is evidence that if you put two areas too close together in different categories or tiered systems there lies the problem. Do you accept that . I understand that but i think this will send people into madness listening to this. I remember it months ago ministers made the opposite argument, they were saying you need localised, whack camel strategies to deal with this and now they are making completely different arguments to the one they made some months ago. But the result is still for people in leicester, in hayward, in burnley, you are still in a lockdown, whether its localised or whether it is tiered, you are still living under a form of restriction in those areas need Financial Support, people who need to isolate need sick pay and the local authorities need support to roll out mass testing. Jonathan ashworth thank you for bearing with us, we got through in the end, always good, thank you the shadow Health Secretary. Lets talk to matt taylor who has had a Christmas Tree farm in yorkshire. Thats the view. Looks like it is going to be a cracking morning. Some sunshine, crisp and chilly, but still going to be glorious to look at and in amongst the trees, we have matt taylor. Good morning. Good morning. I am amongst the trees and it is chilly. A quick tip for you, if you are getting a real treat this weekend, or having some over the next few days, treat them like cut flowers, they need watering, make sure you keep it in a bucket and once you get them inside, keep them away from direct heat and keep them away from direct heat and keep them away from direct heat and keep them well watered throughout but as we said, pretty chilly here this morning, good frost on the ground, one of the coldest parts of the country, temperatures dropped down to 3 or a and across some parts of the uk this morning, especially england and wales there is fog around, dense fog could lingerfor is fog around, dense fog could linger for some is fog around, dense fog could lingerfor some hours if not a good pa rt lingerfor some hours if not a good part of the day through the south midlands, south wales, south west england. There will be some sunshine here and there, here at the moment on the chilterns but sticking with cloud for most of us, the thickest across the fat south east of england, some patchy rain or drizzle and across scotland and Northern Ireland, rain and drizzle possible at times. Most places staying dry. Where you have lingering fog it will stay cold, temperatures around two or three degrees, quite widely across the country its single figure temperatures, even if you have sunshine. This evening and overnight, not as cold for england and wales, mist, fog, low cloud, the clouds drifting northwards producing outbreaks of rain, scotland and Northern Ireland, some breaks in the cloud, frost taking us into the start of your weekend. Saturday, the best of the morning sunshine in scotla nd best of the morning sunshine in scotland and Northern Ireland, clouding from the south during the day, some sunshine developing in southern england and parts of wales later in the day. For most of us, cloudy saturday, cold saturday, may bea cloudy saturday, cold saturday, may be a little less cold than today, little less colder still as we go through sunday as well. Most places staying dry and sandy. Whatever your plans, stay warm and have a nice one. Back to you in the studio. I really like the way that has been shot. It looks like a cheesy christmas movie. You know the ones that you see during the daytime . I actually meant that in a nice way enjoy yourself. Will do, thank you. Since falling in love with dancing as a young girl, Shirley Ballas has quick stepped her way to the top of ballroom landing the job as head judge on strictly. And now the queen of latin is looking back at a her career in her new book behind the sequins. Lets take a look at herjourney. Behind the sequins. From good old great britain, number 104, Shirley Ballas. Latin music plays. It was musical, you have amazing leading skills. Latin music plays. Shirley ballas. A true inspiration. 10 cheering. Shirleyjoins us now from london. Good morning, how are you . Im good, thank you. How are you . Very well. I genuinely do ask how you are, because today of all days we are talking about the new tiers coming in, lockdown, people looking forward to christmas. I suppose strictly, it gives you a sense of purpose and routine and helps focus the joy somewhere . Im truly grateful that strictly mackie was able to go ahead this series, even though it was only nine episodes. People could sit at home and thoroughly enjoy all of the baubles, bangles and beads, the celebrities. We are grateful that it has gone ahead. What we are talking about today is going behind the sequins, a lot of people would not know how successful you where and why you have the title queen of the ballroom. To be at the top of your game, you worked so hard . You had to be strong, steely, work your way through. How tough was that . Be strong, steely, work your way through. How tough was that7m be strong, steely, work your way through. How tough was that . It was tough, because i was in an industry that was male dominated. I think from the very beginning, being a single parent, and then we had no finances, no money, and getting married young and then getting remarried, then having a baby and trying to make it, making it once, losing it, and making it again. It was lots of twists in the journey. Plus the death of my brother, the whole story was actually very difficult to write, even more difficult to write, even more difficult to write, even more difficult to read. But i am hoping that it will be inspiring for people who are told that they cant do something, as i was told. It will never happen, you cant do it, you are wasting your time. My mother is wasting her money. There are possibilities, if you truly believe you can get there. Shirley, good morning to you. You picked up on a couple of things that people perhaps dont know, there is no reason why they should, very personal things that you share in the book, you mentioned the death of your brother, i ask this cautiously, but it is in the book and you talk about it openly. It is a terrible time in your life. He took his own life, and thatis your life. He took his own life, and that is something that we talk about more now. There is better dialogue about that now. But clearly, the impact on you, how has that been . Well, on the 5th of december, 18 yea rs well, on the 5th of december, 18 years ago, he took his own life, aged 44. He had a beautiful ten year old daughter and, from what i saw from the outside, everything to live for. He went into that funky position we all get into sometimes, where he gets anxious and down, like a big black hole that he said he couldnt get out of. Back then, nobody talked about Mental Health, it is kind of brush to the side. The solution for david was to always give him a medication, which he didnt particularly care to take. It didnt particularly care to take. It did say on the bottle, which i read after his passing, it said it could give suicidal thoughts. To anybody who thinks medication could be an answer, you really have to read the small print. Its very important. I know a lot more now about mens Mental Health. When i got thejob on strictly, i was excited that i could use it as a platform for Mental Health, my mother has cancer, so for cancer, for different charities, and educate myself a lot more. Had he been alive today, i truly believe that perhaps i would be able to talk to him or get him to help that he needs by communication. Very well said, and thank you for. Obviously we share things better now, that is a positive thing. Lets step aside from that for a moment. I want to picture, if you will, i dont know, a seven or eight year old Shirley Ballas, people know you sitting on the judging ballas, people know you sitting on thejudging panel, ballas, people know you sitting on the judging panel, full of confidence and knowing your stuff. What was the little Shirley Ballas lie . The little Shirley Ballas was a lwa ys lie . The little Shirley Ballas was always the one with a hand up in the classroom, i wanted to do tennis, chess, singing, dancing. But when i went to the church hall at seven yea rs of went to the church hall at seven years of age, to the brownies or guides, and years of age, to the brownies or guides, and i heard chacha chat music coming from the other room, and mosey to my way over, as soon as i saw the adults dancing, i knew i had found my passion, or my passion had found my passion, or my passion had found my passion, or my passion had found me. I am had found my passion, or my passion had found me. Iam married had found my passion, or my passion had found me. I am married to it. I love music, journeys, and mine was a very difficult journey. Love music, journeys, and mine was a very difficultjourney. Everything i did,i very difficultjourney. Everything i did, idid very difficultjourney. Everything i did, i did on my own. Travelling through liverpool at night, the trains, the buses. Because my mother to support my hobby. Its really interesting that you have a vivid memory of how difficult it was. Also interesting talking about the value of being kind, and just being aware of being kind, and just being aware of peoples Mental Health. Strictly is tough. Being a contestant, you are exposed all the time and feel vulnerable. That is something that i thinkjudges need to be mindful of. I get the feeling that you are, with your comments and with your constructive criticisms. your comments and with your constructive criticisms. I really do try to be. I try to be positive and give people hope, and give them something to think about. At the same time, tools they can improve their dancing from week to week. Im very mindful of theirjourney, everything they are putting forward. The life that they have had. I have been a little bit used to it, because i have children that were on dancing with a style for 20 seasons. I was able to watch, and i would hear the little comments that would come out. Dancing with the stars. It was devastating when they spent a whole week putting that amazing choreography together, to have it poo pooed, with no thought. I have to think before i speak, of course i have to be quite strict, there has to be improvement in summary has to go home. At the public are more powerful than thejudges. Go home. At the public are more powerful than the judges. If you choose to save somebody, even if they are at the bottom of the leaderboard, as was clara, she will be saved. The solution is vote, vote, vote. We will be mindful of the competitive spirit and everything Everybody Needs to keep moving forward. I am liking the ballas headquarters leather chair look. Is that the headquarters of the empire . This is the room i come to, i locked the door and i have my space. I only moved here a year ago, so im not finished decorating. Space. I only moved here a year ago, so im not finished decorating. Oh no, ilike so im not finished decorating. Oh no, i like it we were talking about what is happening right now in strictly. We are going to run some images of some of the guys performing at the moment. Are you going to call out people that are worthy of special attention, do you think . No favourites, obviously well, its been the toughest series ever, we have all watched the show and people have been in bubbles so they are concentrated, 24 7. They are not with their spouse. It is dance, dance, dance. That is all they are focused on. The level of celebrity are so high that it is making it extremely difficult to send anybody home. It gets very emotional behind that desk, because we just emotional behind that desk, because wejust dont emotional behind that desk, because we just dont want people to go home. There have been some standout performances, the argentina tango was amazing. I cant even have words for bill bailey i dont even know where to start with him, at 55 years of age. He is the one that studies each of the dancers, the origin, where it came from, how it got famous, you know . The different timings. He really does a study. And jamie, coming from being in the bottom two to the top of the leaderboard, hrvy and maisie, could also go on to be in the final. It could be anybodys at the moment. Always lovely to talk to you. Thank you so much. Take care of yourself. We should say that shirleys book is called behind the sequins. The duchess of cambridge says there is no better time to have a conversation about families, after the hugely challenging year we have all faced. Speaking ahead of the release of her landmark early years study, the duchess warns of the crucial role childhood plays in raising the next generation and shaping society. Our royal correspondent Daniella Ralph reports. Some have tyres and some have tracks. Some precious quiet time for becky and her son, ollie, whos three. This preschool in peterborough has been a sanctuary, vital to the well being of them both. Run by the Charity Family action, the duchess of cambridge is its patron. It provides practical and emotional support to parents, from potty training to outdoor play, and has helped families manage the parenting challenges of lockdown. There was days where it was just, do you know what, i cant be bothered today. Im not getting dressed today. But we got through it. And what lifts you on days when you feel like that . How do you get out of it . The stuff he comes outwith. It genuinely is him that pulls me out of it. Like, i sit there thinking, oh. I struggle. I cant cope. And then helljust look at me and hell sayjust Little Things like, are you all right, mummy . And it changes the whole mood completely. The survey is a look at early childhood. 63 of people said theyd experienced loneliness, which had become significantly worse in lockdown. 70 described feeling judged by others. And only 10 of parents found time to look after their own well being. Being briefed on the Research Findings earlier this week, the duchess of cambridge has described the work as a landmark public survey. So weve taken your input, and combined it with even more public research, to produce the uks biggest ever study on the early years. This year has been a hugely challenging time for us all, and there hasnt been a more important moment to talk about families. During the summer, the duchess spoke to the bbc and met families with Young Children, including dad ryan and his daughter mia. Particularly for first time dads, is it quite a daunting. Daunting time . Its very scary. Almost six months on, mia has taken her first steps. Oh, my god, yes . And enjoyed herfirst birthday cake, as ryan continues to cope with the pressure of being a single dad. You shouldnt like, judge someone, or make someone feel conscious about the way theyre parenting, because not everyone is perfect. Everyone has their own mistakes, makes their own mistakes. So, its easier said than done. And i but yeah, i do feel conscious when im Walking Around and if i tell my daughter off in public, im like, oh my god, ijust like, told her off, does that make me a bad parent . It doesnt. Its telling them the rights and wrongs of things. They like Brussel Sprouts too . I never knew that. For the duchess of cambridge, supporting the Early Years Community is now her priority. Its a long term commitment. She wants the survey results to inform the work of everyone supporting Young Children and their families. It can really, hopefully, make a real difference to how we raise the current and next generations of children, and make a difference to to the world we live in. So i think. For that reason i think its a really important piece of research. The survey is a vast bank of data, the first hand experience of parents, with the aim of improving the lives of Young Children and those looking after them. Daniella relph, bbc news, peterborough. This is bbc news with the latest headlines a call for a rethink over englands tier system but the government defends placing most of the country under tougher restrictions after lockdown ends. If people do follow the rules, if we do make the tiered system work, then as i say, there is every reason to believe that they could de escalate and go down a tier in time for christmas.
