beat leicester on monday could come to define this season, it will define very little if they don't beat brighton. we are in this position because we won a lot of games in the last part, 13 games in a world, we have to win one more tomorrow in the premier league. and that's what we have to do. rewind seven that's what we have to do. rewind seve n years that's what we have to do. rewind seven years to find the last final day decider, manchester city winning and in the final minute, it seemed unthinkable, unrepeatable until this week. you can keep up—to—date with both of those matches on bbc radio 5 live. leeds united have the advantage in their championship play—off semi—final, after a controversial win over derby county in the first leg. kemar roofe scored early in the second half — his 15th goal of the season and derby were incensed when the referee overturned his penalty decision, following a collision in the box. the side meet again on wednesday. aston villa beat west brom 2—1 in theirfirst leg — tammy abraham with the winner from the penalty spot. the second leg is on tuesday. chris maguire's stunning volley gave sunderland the initiative after the first leg of their league one play—off semi—final against portsmouth. and salford city — the club pa rt—owned by manchester united's class of ‘92 — have been promoted to the football league for the first time in their history. this they beat afc fylde 3—0 in the national league play—off final at wembley. in scotland, we have the old firm derby at noon — and with celtic and rangers already filling the top two spots, the focus has switched to the chase for third place — kilmarnock moved above aberdeen yesterday with victory over hibs. dundee, already relegated to the championship, earned their first win for three months, beating livingston. kenny miller was injured in the act of scoring the only goal of the game. women's super league champions arsenal finished the season on a high — by inflicting a first league defeat on their closest rivals manchester city. the only goal of the game came from emma mitchell, who surprised even herself with a brilliant strike. saracens beat leinster in the biggest game in european club rugby, lifting the champions cup for the third time in four years. they won by 20 points to 10 in a close final in newcastle. patrick gearey spent an eventful day at st james' park. in rugby, the final stretch can be the hardest. yet something keeps dragging saracens and leinster back to this stage. in newcastle, a meeting of the two biggest beasts in the game. the toughest of all, the toughest to call. a match above all matches. saracens have been unbeaten in this competition all season. they have won two years in a row but leinster took it off them. these two are the dominant forces in european rugby. when two such forces collide, much sound and fury follows but initially more bruises than points. it took until itoje was in the sin bin for leinster to batter a way through. saracens freed themselves from claustrophobia. sean maitland went over and saracens were level by the break the intensity never lifted. the red army rumbled forward, a game of spot the ball. no try but a penalty. farrell did the necessary. it was still tight when leinster was struck by a bolt from billy. a moment of skill and strength that england may need at the world cup. even in this wild week of sporting comebacks this was too much for leinster. their reign as european champions ended with this kick. with these games you are running on emotional energy and there is a huge amount of resilience that you have to show but to be part of this team, you get energy from the players on either side of you and today there were monumental performances. this team can now be considered amongst britain's most successful sporting sides. saracens, the strongmen of europe. championship side bradford shocked leeds rhinos of the super league, to reach the quarter—finals of the challenge cup. they led 22—14 at half—time, mikey wood among the try—scorers, and they managed to hold off a determinted leeds fightback, to win by 2a points to 22. england's cricketers clung on to beat pakistan in the second one—day international southampton. joss butler powered them to 373 for 3, with a spectacular century off just 50 balls. the visitors came close but england edged it, winning by 12 runs — and making selection for the upcoming world cup tricky. i think they are all pushing each other. it is a bit like our batting unit over the last two or three years. guys come in and do well and they miss out and unfortunately a couple of guys from this squad of 17 will miss out. it will be a tough decision regardless of how they perform in the rest of the series because of what they have contributed over this last long period of time. mercedes‘ continue to dominate formula one this season with another first and second in qualifying for the spanish grand prix. valterri bottas secured a hat—trick of pole positions ahead of his team mate lewis hamilton. the finn has a one point lead in the drivers‘ championship. i enjoy the adrenaline rush we get from those laps and i am very pleased. it was difficult but i forgot that and moved on. i did not put a lap together. the last few laps, particularly in 03 were not strong. i had to go out first ahead of everyone because i had a low battery pack and this was not a good job. meanwhile jean—eric vergne became the first repeat race winner of this year's formula e season, after converting pole into victory on the streets of monaco. britain's oliver rowland finished second. great britain were beaten by germany in their opening game of the ice hockey world championship in slovakia. this goal from great britain's mike hammond levelled the match at 1—all in the final period but germany scored two late goals to win 3—1. great britain are appearing at the world championships for the first time in 25 years — they play canada later today. ahead of the world athletics championships later this year, the world relay championships are underway in yokohama. great britain's men qualified for today's 4 by 100m final, running the fastest time in the world this year in their heat. gb's men and women both qualified for the 4 by 400 metre relay finals. britain's simon yates just missed out on winning the opening stage of cycling's first grand tour of the year, the giro d'italia. yates, the reigning vuelta a espana champion, finished the five—mile time trial in bologna just nineteen seconds behind slovenia's primroz rog—litch. yates says he has a "deep passion" to win the giro, after leading for 13 stages last year before losing out to chris froome. today's stage is 205 km, featuring two categorised climbs ahead of a flat finish. england's matt wallace has a share of the lead at the british masters at southport going into the final round. wallace — who's chasing a fifth european tour title — was three shots ahead early in the third round, but he dropped his first shots of the tournament on the back nine to finish on 1li—under par, alongside sweden's marcus kinult. rafael nadal‘s chances of winning a sixth madrid open are over, after he was knocked out in the semi—finals by stefanos tsitsipas. the young greek is one of the most exciting young players in the game — he beat roger federer at this year's australian open but this is the first time he's defeated nadal. his reward is a final against novak djokovic, who beat dominic thiem. and simona halep missed the chance to go back to the top of the world rankings, when she lost the final to kiki bertens in straight sets. it's the biggest win of bertens' career and it'll take her up to fourth in the world, making her the highest—ranking dutchwoman in history. wasps are through to the netball superleague final after a 20—point victory over loughborough lightning. the defending champions won 7a points to sa keeping them on course to win a third successive title. they'll face manchester thunder in the final after they beat five—time champions team bath. that's all the sport for now. 110w now it's time for a look at the papers. hello and welcome to our sunday morning paper review. with me are sian griffiths, education editor at the sunday times, and political commentator james millar. welcome to you both. let's take a look at today's front pages... sacked minister gavin williamson criticises the cross—party brexit talks in the mail on sunday — the former defence secretary says the prime minister has ‘betrayed' the conservative party by negotiating with labour and that talks will "end in tears". senior conservative and labour mps have called on voters to support them in this month's european elections — as a new opinium survey for the observer suggests nigel farage's brexit party has more support than the two main parties put together. the majority of voters support proposals to cut greenhouse gases down to almost zero by 2050, according to an exclusive poll on the front page of the independent. and the sunday telegraph's lead story features a comres survey which gathered views on if a general election campaign was to take place now — with the headline "brexit party beats tories in general election poll". it's that time of year again — the sunday times headlines its rich list and also reports that some of the uk's wealthiest people might leave the country — and take around one trillion pounds with them — ifjeremy corbyn becomes prime minister. the sunday express has spoken to the half—brother of the duchess of sussex, who says baby archie will "heal the rifts between meghan markle and her estranged father". and the sunday mirror has an exclusive interview with meghan's sister, who wants her to end the rift with father thomas markle. just a flavour of the front pages for you. let's go through them in a little bit more detail starting with the mail on sunday. james, it seems hell hath no fury like a defence secretary scorned. a defence secretary scorned. a defence secretary sacked for being a liquor which he denies has gone off squealing to the press which i'm not sure is the best way to convince people you weren't at the liquor in the first place but it's interesting stuff. a big figure in the back benches and we wondered what he was going to do and how he would react to being sacked. it's frankly quite entertaining. some a—level politics turns of phrase, he says the prime minister should not be negotiating with labour, there is a clue in the title, her majesty ‘s official opposition, it rates slightly like something an a—level student would write. will it bother theresa may, this broadside from gavin williamson? i don't think it will. it's more of the same, these sorts of criticisms for a long time, she's been negotiating with labour. the language is very inflammatory. he called it a betrayal, says she is negotiating with the enemy, there is this coatjeremy negotiating with the enemy, there is this coat jeremy corbyn will do all he can to divide, disrupt and frustrate the tories. it's very tribal politics, do not trust downing street said when he was in the cabinet he was quite supportive of the talks. he is making it clear he will be very difficult in the backbenches, he's not going to be quiet. what i was interested in, when i saw this, i thought i hope he was going to say something about whether he liked or not but there is nothing in here, last week when he was sacked, it was all about how he hadn't leaked and he made a big fuss. we were told he might make a personal statement in the house. maybe that is, of course the privilege in the house would protect him because if he didn't, who did? there's nothing in this taking that. worth pointing out, there's no is, the prime minister should not talk to labour in jeremy the prime minister should not talk to labour injeremy corbyn, it doesn't say how you make brexit happen. let's go to the sunday telegraph, a couple of opinion polls, it's talk about the sunday telegraph one first. james, suggesting brexit party are quite popular with voters? yes, who'd have thunk it? i'm always slightly depressed by polls, they look slightly science, when any half decent political respondent would tell you the brexit party is doing quite well and people like nigel farage but the numbers are staggering. as ever. treat opinion polls with a massive dose of suspicion, however you want to put it. they have got two of them, one for the general election and another for the general election and another for the general election and another for the european election. the euro election they have the brexit party two points ahead of labour, in the general election they had the brexit party at one point ahead of the tories but that would not translate into that many seats but it would translate according to this to around a0 seats which would be pretty remarkable but will anybody really think the brexit party would get a0 seats if there was an election tomorrow? i'm not even sure they could feel that many candidates, they could possibly field 40 or a7 candidates and target that many seats but you know, you are talking 650 for a general election, i don't think they could put up that many people. the really interesting thing about this story, the headline is brexit party beat stories in general election poll, in the third paragraph, the very interesting thing, labour would become the largest party according to this polling by a margin of 137 seats allowing jeremy corbyn to lead a minority government. for me, that's the thing to take away, not really the fact the brexit party are going to do better than the tories. the big takeaway is to party politics is almost certainly well and truly broken, we haven't had a proper majority government since 2005. i can't see how we would get one anytime soon and that begs the question how you get a brexit deal through a house that you don't have a majority government. in terms of the country division, between remain and leave, i suppose it's fair to say they remain vote is split between a number of different parties, change uk, the liberal democrats who did well in the local elections. yes, as ever, you have this massive new thing from 2016, you've got to overlay the parties and certainly, with the euro elections, no one takes it that seriously and votes for whoever they wa nt to seriously and votes for whoever they want to because it doesn't matter, the brexit party could very quickly could pick up momentum but as you say, there is potentialfor a remain party to pick up momentum but it's split. although we might see the lib dems who did well at local elections, they might now have the momentum to possibly obliterated the remain opposition down the line but we'll see how that plays out. let's look at the other pole in the observer. this is the brexit party of 3a% in the euro elections and says the prime minister ‘s brexit sta nce says the prime minister ‘s brexit stance is fuelling populism. again, if say another poll surge for the brexit party which is also picking up brexit party which is also picking up ukip votes and has a very clear message, brexit, we will leave the european union. possibly without a deal. and because it's such a clear message i think that is why people rally behind it. the tories and labour, because they have remainers and leavers and they are trying not to split the party, they have a much more budged message but these polls i think more budged message but these polls ithink are more budged message but these polls i think are going to spark panic particularly amongst the tory party. they did so badly in the local elections, losing 1000 seats. so senior tory and labour politicians very much urging their supporters to back them in the european elections oi'i back them in the european elections on the 23rd of may in the face of these really rather terrifying polls. which takes us to the sunday times. theirfront—page polls. which takes us to the sunday times. their front—page headline saying time to go site ‘s allies with the party fought in the nipples. i suppose that refers to what you are talking about, possible panic in the remain parties. james, where our we with theresa may? tim shipman is a very nice man but he has been predicting because most of the year at saint theresa may is going to go, as have we all and she is still there. she just seems to be unbridgeable. but as time not running out? the tories made a mistake from their point of view, having the confidence vote in december which she won because she is bullet—proof for a year. she doesn't have to go. but there could be overwhelming pressure. there already is and she is still there. it's quite remarkable. there's a line in this that says the parliamentary party wants to go, the volu nta ry parliamentary party wants to go, the voluntary party parliamentary party wants to go, the volu nta ry party wa nts parliamentary party wants to go, the voluntary party wants to go, the cabinet doesn't believe she can survive, my view is her time is probably up. yes, and she's still there! how much longer do you think she's got? there is a date in this story which suggests there is a convention of grassroots tories on june the 15th who are preparing to deliver a vote of no confidence in herand he deliver a vote of no confidence in her and he suggests byjane the 15th, on that date, she will have gone and there's another interesting line in this story suggesting the health secretary matt hancock and amber rudd, their work and pensions secretary are signalling they might i’ui'i secretary are signalling they might run as a dream team to replace theresa may. matt hancock has had that dream, i'm not sure anyone else has! let's move from politics. the sunday times, the annual rich list is out. do you think people like reading about the billionaires around the country? absolutely they do. we love the annual rich list and we do. we love the annual rich list and we look forward to it. why? i think people are interested in how much other people earn and they want to compare their situation with other people, it's very glamorous, it's glitzy. and it's fascinating who's going up and down. top of the pops. it isa going up and down. top of the pops. it is a bit like top of the pops and has been beautifully done by the paper. we've got eight or so pictures, photos across the top, britain '5 register, sir philip green is going down. less rich than he was. he is not a billionaire anymore. how depressing. jim radcliffe of the top of the list, the top of the list is the hinduja brothers and ed sheeran entering the list with a haul of £160 million, fascinating. it's all combined. james, are you fascinated by who is a billionaire and who isn't? you said you want to get away from politics and it isn't, the rich preparing to flee corbin ‘s britton says the paper. firstly they suggest they thinkjeremy corbyn could be prime minister which is remarkable if you think back a few years ago and it's a strange way to approach it, one tax expert told the paper he helped to ten people with a net wealth of half £1 billion or more and leave the country totalling more than £5 billion over the past years of the story would seem to be people are leaving the country under the tories rather than people might leave the country under an imagined government down the line. of course jeremy corbyn loves it, he's been tweeting this morning, saying see ya come on you go, billionaires. it's not a jeremy corbyn kick story, they've talked to many of the people oi'i they've talked to many of the people on the rich list and of those who talked one in ten said they would leave the country and it is to avoid tax, labour has his proposals to bring ina tax, labour has his proposals to bring in a more draconian tax regime for the very richest people and as you say they would suggest it's not draconian, it's fair. the rich to pay an awful lot more tax. let's move on to the observer, the other big front—page story apart from the opinion poll which is organised crime in britain, quite a shocking warning from the head of the national crime agency, james. talking about how organised crime in this country is now at a chronic and corrosive level, it's a threat, killing more citizens every year than terrorism, war and natural disasters combined. we agree is a better story than the splash in the observer because it's something that perhaps doesn't get talked about quite so much but it's there and a p pa re ntly quite so much but it's there and apparently growing and according to the observer perhaps inevitably fuelled by austerity and cuts and all the rest of it. it brings in the fa ct of all the rest of it. it brings in the fact of police cuts which is an issue that plays very well with everyone, sort of concerned about that. this was an be bobbies on the beat, this would be realfun is to help the national crime agency deal with organised crime. bobbies on the beat are part of the overall picture but yes, it's a cracking line, people should understand serious and organised crime kills more citizens every year than terrorism, war and natural disasters combined. i suppose if you think about it, that seems actually very sensible but of course you don't think about it which is why it's a good story to put on the front page, it will get people thinking and talking and there's been lots of tv programmes on the sort of thing. misha glennie is chairing the launch of the report on tuesday. the man who wrote the tv series to fight it which laid out how organised crime groups are cutting a swathe through britain. we are even seeing it in schools, we are even seeing it in schools, we are seeing young kids being sucked into county lines drug running and thatis into county lines drug running and that is what these organised crime gangs are doing. they are doing activity across a range of things from trafficking to drugs to guns and firearms, money laundering. and it's really serious and very worrying. we are almost out of time but we have to talk about the royal baby. james, there is a shocking news, prince harry is changing nappies. who would have thought? let's talk about this, as a man who wrote a book last year called dads don't babysit, about men who should be doing more parenting, this is not news. this really makes me angry because it makes it seem how angry? so angry i could barely sleep last night. it makes it seem like it's acceptable for a man to change a nappy and it's not. men should change nappies but if you put stories like this out there it creates a barrier in the minds of men, they think they are weirdos for changing nappies and you are not. there is no reason you should not change a nappy unless the angle is, he's a prince so he should have people to do it for him but i'm not sure that's the line the royals want to put out. it'sjust sure that's the line the royals want to put out. it's just nonsense. sure that's the line the royals want to put out. it'sjust nonsense. and he also can't even take two weeks of pa rental leave, he also can't even take two weeks of parental leave, he was in holland last week a few days after the baby was born. every man should take at least two weeks paternity leave, there is no reason you can't take paternity leave if you expect your partner to take months off. paternity leave if you expect your partner to take months offlj paternity leave if you expect your partner to take months off. i mean i think it's admirable he's changing nappies. the story says royal fans will be relieved to learn prince harry has passed the first real test of mother fatherhood. he made the baby, he's got have the responsibility. i think he being a role model for men everywhere. i think many fathers still do not change nappies. because they see stories like that and they think it's not normal. not only do they not change nappies, they don't do things like pick them up from school when they get older. because they say things like that. just a very quick final thought on the royal baby. the sunday mirror and its front page says megan, please let our cheap meet his family. sort of suggesting in some of the paper the royal baby might bring meghan markle ‘s family together. royal baby might bring meghan markle 's family together. he's only five days old, quite a burden to be putting on him but like many families were newborn cubs and there is the soap that rifts will be healed and i mean, archie has already been seen by his grandmother and it would be nice to think that megan 's dad will get to see archie but of course, the estrangement is quite bitter and talking to the newspapers as obviously, which is what some of that is doing on the front page of the paper will not help the rifts. basically what it is, geta help the rifts. basically what it is, get a royal baby story for sunday, every editor has said, various people have phoned up every contact they have. you know that's how it works. you are so cynical. on that note, thank you so much for being with us. good to see you both. don't forget you can see different pages of the papers online on the bbc news website, therefore you seven days a week. but our thanks to my guests this morning. goodbye from us. good morning. a bit chilly if you we re good morning. a bit chilly if you were up good morning. a bit chilly if you were up a good morning. a bit chilly if you were up a couple of hours ago, temperatures below freezing in some rural areas in all four nations but temperatures now starting to recover in the sunshine. more cloud across northern ireland today but the sun is strong enough to get through the cloud, the son already or has already cleared the morning mist and fog. high pressure sitting on top of us fog. high pressure sitting on top of us for this week, putting a lid on the atmosphere stopping the heavy showers. with reference to the west bringing thin cloud into northern ireland, skipping around the edges of the uk during today but essentially for all of us, it's a dry and fine picture with one or two exceptions, the likes of the northern isles. just the outside chance of a shower across the south downs but for most, warmer than yesterday, temperatures will get higher than yesterday in the middle of the afternoon. we lose the northerly breeze, feeling warmer, the sunshine more hazy for northern ireland and western scotland, showers across the northern isles. that cloud and those showers brushing north will alleviate any frost risk in the north and west overnight but again in the east, quite chilly, some ground first thing monday morning and some mist and fog around as well. as temperatures rise during the day over the next few days, warmer and sunnier weather coming in we won't see frost risk by night. tomorrow there could be a little bit of mist and fog around, chilly in the east, light winds for most of us, very little cloud except high council temperatures getting higher than today stop they are rising further north. that's where we think, the northwest will see the best of the sunshine, we have the warm southerly winds, a subtle north—easterly breeze coming in across eastern england on tuesday, never a one direction when it comes from the north sea, just 13 degrees on the coast but again we continue to see temperatures rise for many areas. with the high pressure along the sea, the east continues and the southerly breeze continuing for the west, the warmest weather this weekend northern and western parts of the uk peaking in mid week before easing with easterly wind becoming more dominant. towards next weekend it may be we started to pick up the next batch of rain but no sign of it in the forecast for the next four or five days. the headlines at ten... the sacked defence secretary gavin williamson warns the prime minister it would be a "grave mistake" to compromise with labour over brexit. us—iran tensions, president rouhani issues a stark warning that his country is facing difficult times ahead because of renewed american sanctions. the national crime agency says organised criminals are killing more people a year than terrorism, war and natural disasters combined. it wants more money to tackle the problem. two bbc dramas go head to head tonight at the bafta tv awards. the biggest prize in domestic football goes to the wire this afternoon.
