From the organisation that runs the oscars the academy said he no longer merited the respect of his colleagues. It follows a series of Sexual Assault accusations against the producer including rape some of which he has denied. Mr weinstein has already been fired by the company he founded, denounced by many of the celebrities he launched to stardom and called a depraved predator by his own brother. Laura bicker reports from la where the meeting of the academy has been taking place. The glitzy veneer which has hidden hollywoods darkest secrets has now been peeled back. Harvey weinstein was credited with over 81 oscar wins and over 300 nominations, awards which now seem tarnished. This is a key moment for an industry which stands accused of developing a culture which made women feel that exploitation was a price they had to pay to get a job.

Harveys not in the academy because everyone thought he was a nice guy or even played fair. Its because he has been a genius at picking and promoting films and so in that way, hes helped a lot of filmmakers. Now hes also proved that he had another life as a sexual predator, and that hurts so many people. Harvey weinsteins brother, bob, has today called him sick and a predator. He says they have barely spoken in five years and that he was heartbroken for the women his brother had harmed and hopes he gets the justice he deserves. British actress alice evans is the latest star to claim weinstein propositioned her. They met at the Cannes Film Festival in 2002. She says she asked her to go to a bathroom with him because he wanted to feel her breasts. She said no. She said that . The next time they met, she says weinstein ignored her and that she was never considered for one of his films ever again, nor was her husband, the actor ioan gruffudd. Harvey weinsteins downfall has been swift. The N

I have worn plenty of protective suits in my time but they have always been to protect the environment from my body. This time, its different. Ive come to one of the most infamous locations on earth. Until 2011, few people had heard of the Fukushima Daiichi power plant in North Eastern japan. Then, the largest earthquake in japanese history changed everything. The resulting tsunami killed more than 20,000 people and the iii metre wave overwhelmed fukushimas flood defences. Ironically, it was the power stations cooling system that was flooded and when it shut down, the radioactive fuel rods began to overheat and melt down. They reacted with the steam around them, filling units one, two, three and four with hydrogen gas which then exploded. 6. 5 years on, the melted radioactive fuel remains somewhere inside these buildings. Humans cant go anywhere near that fuel, so robots are being used first to try and find it and then eventually to remove it. And today, weve been given rare access to
