The Prime Minister will be meeting European Business leaders today, with a trade deal top of the agenda. Im talking to one british boss whos going to find out what they want to hear. In sport, its heartbreak for Northern Ireland, as they miss out on a place at next summers world cup finals. Plus, ive been speaking to hugh grant. He tells me what its like playing the bad guy, and what he makes of the hollywood harrassment scandal. I think Sexual Harassment should not be tolerated in any form, in any business, anywhere. That is the end of it. I admire any women who came forward about it. And carol has the weather. Good morning. Clear sky around this morning. Some may be able to see jupiter and venus before sunrise. There is rain in the forecast and for some of us some snow. I will have all the details 15 minutes. have all the details 15 minutesli better get my coat. Good morning. First, our main story. The family of Nazanin Zaghari ratcliffe, the british iranian woman jailed in tehran for alleged spying, say theyre increasingly concerned about her wellbeing. Shes now been in detention in the iranian capital for 19 months. The foreign secretary, borisjohnson, and his cabinet colleague michael gove have both been criticised for their comments about the case. Nick beake reports. 19 months in prison abroad, separated from her family, and now said to be on the verge of a nervous breakdown, Nazanin Zaghari ratcliffe, pictured here with daughter gabriella, was jailed for plotting against the regime in iran something she has always denied. But now another british cabinet minister has been accused of undermining her case. What was she doing when she went to iran . I dont know. One of the things i want to stress is that there is no reason why Nazanin Zaghari ratcliffe should be in prison in iran so far as any of us know. Mr goves lack of clarity was in contrast to borisjohnsons insistence she had been visiting relatives. The uk government has no doubt that she was on holiday in iran when she was arrested last year, and that was the sole purpose of her visit. The foreign secretary had himself been forced to make a statement after mistakenly saying mrs Zaghari Ratcliffe had been teaching journalism in iran. Labour has called for him to be sacked. But Richard Ratcliffe says resignations wont help his wife. In a statement, he said she was on the verge of a nervous breakdown and had found lumps on her breast. They were thought to be benign but a Family History of Breast Cancer meant her situation would be kept under close surveillance. Over the weekend, mr ratcliffe told breakfast that Boris Johnson had a crucial role in securing his wifes release and allowing him to finally see his daughter again, who is still in iran. I think it is really important that he gets on a plane to go and see nazanin. I would like to go with him and see her, and now is the chance after all these months of not getting to see her. The Foreign Office is said to be considering that request, but there is no obvious end in sight for Nazanin Zaghari ratcliffes ordeal. Nick beake, bbc news. And well be speaking to the ratcliffe familys local mp tulip siddiq just after 6 30. Lets go to westminster, and our political orresponent, chris mason. Good morning. There are so many issues around this case. What about michael gove and this comments yesterday . Good morning. What is striking politically about this case is it sums up the duty to protect the interests of british citizens abroad. Lot of criticism last week after the remarks of borisjohnson, the suggestion she was training journalists in iran. And now michael gove has appeared to muddy the waters in the interview on the Andrew Marr Show yesterday. He claimed he did not know what she was doing in iran despite the fact Boris Johnson in his clarification last week said the British Government was absolutely of the view that she was merely on holiday with her daughter. So, still some Big Questions from the government on this. Relief from the government on this. Relief from the family that finally the government seems to be talking about it and it is generating headlines. Meanwhile, for the government, at the start of the new week, the return of the b word, brexit, knocked out of the headlines for the last few weeks, coming to dominate again in the next few days with the eu withdrawal bill being debated, the legislation to cut and paste the rules from brussels into the uk. They want a smooth process on the day we leave the eu. A huge amount of contention around the details on that. As we were just hearing a few minutes ago, Business Leaders from across europe are heading to downing street this morning. They are concerned there may not be a smooth arrangement immediately after brexit and that that could disrupt trade. So, as ever, a huge issue for the Prime Minister. Thank you very much. We will talk to you later. We will talk to the shadow brexit secretary about that later on this morning. More news now. Iranian media says more than 140 people have been killed by an earthquake in the west of the country. Hundreds more have been injured.

The church of england is telling its schools that children gun owners in england and wales are being encouraged to hand in their weapons to the police as part of a two week long gun surrender scheme. People giving up their firearms wont face prosecution for illegal possession, but could be questioned if a gun is found to be linked to a crime. Sima kotecha reports. Hand in your guns and no questions will be asked. That is what Police Forces across england and wales are calling upon people to do. Last firearms surrender was in 2014, when 6,000 handguns, rifles and imitation firearms were handed in. It is targeted at those who may have forgotten about owning a gun, or may be too scared to tell officers they have got one, in case they are arrested. The deal is, no questions will be asked at the point of surrender. However, if the weapon is traced back to a crime scene, they could be called in for questioning. Were realistic enough to realise that were not going to get hardened gang members, in possession of weapons they intend to use, hand in a gun. But this is part of our response, to try and make it as difficult as possible for those people to come into possession of any type of weapon at all. Latest figures show that there were almost 7,000 Crimes Involving firearms in england and wales last year. That is an increase of 27 on the year before. But the number of crimes is still far less than a decade ago, when it was 31 higher. Critics say those who want to use a gun will do so, and the surrender wont make a difference. It begins today, and lasts for two weeks. Sima kotecha, bbc news. The westminster government are set to introduce legislation later today to pass a budget for Northern Ireland. Ministers say the were forced to make the move because leaders in the region have failed to restore the power sharing executive at stormont which collapsed in january.

Ministers say they have no choice because of the failure to restore the power sharing executive at stormont, which collapsed in january. The church of england is telling its schools that children should be free to explore their identity and both boys and girls should be allowed to wear a tutu, tiara or superhero cloak withoutjudgement from teachers or other pupils. The new guidelines aim to prevent children being bullied because of their Sexual Orientation or gender identity. Jon donnison reports the church of england first issued guidance on homophobic bullying in its schools three years ago. Today, those guidelines are being updated to include bullying against children and adolescents who identify as transgender or bisexual. And adolescents who identify as tra nsgender or bisexual. It and adolescents who identify as transgender or bisexual. It comes after a commercial case on the isle of wight with one couple withdrawing their son from a church of England Primary School because another pupil asked to be accepted as transgender. 0ur child came home from school one day and said dad, i am confused. There is a bawdy in his class who is sometime coming as a boy and sometimes coming as a girl. Boy in his class who is sometimes. We we re in his class who is sometimes. We were concerned because how do you deal with that . These are Primary School children, six years of age. But the new guidance stresses children should be able to play with what it calls the many cloaks of identity. Is as children are at the trying on stage of life, so no labels need to be fixed. And the archbishop of canterbury, justin welby, writes in the new guidance, this. But the church is by no means united on the issue of human sexuality, and this latest guidance is likely to divide opinion. Jon donnison, bbc news. Let us know what you think about that this morning. We will speak to someone that this morning. We will speak to someone about that later. You can tweet and e mail us and we will talk about it later on this morning. But now, the sport. Look at the sadness in herface. It says it all. It is not easy to not make the world cup finals, but there is a cruel way and we saw it overnight and in the last few days. That controversial penalty if you remember from thursday ended up if you remember from thursday ended up being really, really decisive, because it was a 0 0 draw. It takes someone because it was a 0 0 draw. It takes someone tough to forget that penalty decision. Northern ireland boss, Michael Oneill, has described his side efforts as a an amazing achievement, after they lost 1 0 on aggreagate in their world cup play off against switzerland. Johnny evans had their best chance, a header cleared off the line. There was more gold for Great Britain at the track cycling world cup in manchester.

He started last but finished fourth, as Sebastian Vettel took the honours. And i will see you soon. You will be with us through the morning. You will go outside to tell us what it is like. It looks like a sturdy coat carol is wearing. Carol. Good morning. Iamon i am on the roof of the bbc in london, and you will need a sturdy coat, because it is cold. Before sunrise there is a good chance across southern scotland, much of england and wales, where we have clear skies, you may be able to see venus and jupiter with your naked eye, and that is something we will be looking out for ourselves. But it isa be looking out for ourselves. But it is a cold and frosty start to the day. Temperatures are roughly between 2 and plus two, so there is also quite a bit of frost in rural areas, in particular. If we start the forecast across scotland at 9am this morning, you can see we also have some rain across the north west. Some snow on Higher Ground and it will also be pretty windy. Move away from that area at 9am and there is a lot of dry and cold weather across scotland as well. In the Northern England, a similar start. A sunny start for you, but also cold. That holds true as we come down the east coast, although the east coast prone to a few showers, especially down towards yorkshire and east anglia. They will tend to fade as we go through the morning, and a fine but right start across the midlands and southern counties generally. Notice these temperatures, even at 9am they are fairly low. 0ne temperatures, even at 9am they are fairly low. One or two showers across cornwall and pembrokeshire, they will tend to fade into sunshine. Northern ireland have a few showers on north coast, but at this stage a lot of dry and sunny weather. Through because of the day the weather front producing the rain in the north west will sink southwards. It will be windy breezy around it and we will see some snow, especially on Higher Ground, across scotla nd especially on Higher Ground, across scotland and the pennines. At lower levels we could see some wet snow or sleet accumulating for a short time, but that will be replaced by rain later on. For most it will be a cold day with some sunshine. Through the evening and overnight, the weather front producing that rain sinks a bit further south, resting across parts of wales, central parts of england. If you are under that, it wont feel is cold but either side of it, under clearer skies, there will be a touch of frost first thing and a few showers knocking around as well. So through the course of tomorrow, we do still have our weather front across a central swathe of the country, sinking steadily southwards, producing a fair bit of cloud as it does so. Again, there will be some patchy bits of rain in showers connected with that, but nothing too heavy. Behind it, brighter skies with sunshine and some showers. Some of those will be heavy and quite frequent across the far north of the country. Then, as we head on into wednesday, our weather front starts to retreat northwards. So for england and wales, a fair bit of cloud around. Again some spots of rain across Northern Ireland, Northern England, heading into scotland. To start the day in scotla nd scotland. To start the day in scotland it will be cold and frosty and that rain will edge northwards as we go through the rest of the day. It will not feel is cold. So the weather for the first half of this week certainly is changeable. Thank you very much indeed, i am glad you are dressed up nice and warm.
