multi generational holidays. If you had rain yesterday it is likely it will stick around today as well. The top and tail of the country will see the best and brightest, but they could be some showers around as well. Join me for the details. Its sundayjuly the 28th. Our top story the government is now working on the assumption of a no deal brexit, according to minister michael gove. Mr gove, whos now responsible for planning for such a scenario, said his team still aimed to come to an agreement with brussels, but, writing in the sunday times, he added no deal is now a very real prospect. Our Political Correspondent tom bartonjoins us now. Tom, what does this tell us about the new governments approach to brexit . This is a change of tone, no doubt about that. Michael gove, the man responsible for both planning for no deal, but making sure that the whole of government is getting ready for a no deal brexit, in charge of the Cabinet Office as the duchy of lancaster chancellor. He is sitting gcioss lancaster chancellor. He is sitting across all of those departments, making sure that everybody is ready. And he is very clear in this article today. Saying firstly that there is no point trying to get anything that looks much like theresa mays agreement through parliament, because it willjust get rejected, saying that you cantjust reheat a dish that has been sent back and expect it will be more palatable. But also saying that actually if the eu stick to their guns and say they wont renegotiate, the government needs to work on that basis and assumed that no deal is the most likely outcome. Saying then that planning for no deal is the number one priority of the government, and making clear that no matter what happens, if those negotiations dont go the way that is hoped, and of course they would prefer to leave with a deal if the eu will budge, then, no ifs or buts, no more delays, is happening. It is one thing for the government to agree on that but it is another getting it passed the house of commons, isnt it . Yes, and there are Big Questions about whether mps would agree to allow a no deal brexit to happen. But there is a question about whether they are able to stop it. Big questions in law, big disputes between those who think that no deal should be a realistic prospect, potentially something that actually happens, and those mps in parliament who think it should be stopped no matter what the cost. There seems to be in agreement that the only realistic way for mps to try to stop it would be to hold a vote of no confidence in the when parliament returns in september, but the timeframes for that are very tight, and if it doesnt happen very soon, then no deal brexit could happen by default, because it is a very controversial area, and one where there isnt a very clear answer as to who is right and whether or not its possible. Senior diplomats from britain, france, germany, russia and china will meet representatives from iran later today to discuss how to save the 2015 nuclear deal. Tensions in the gulf have soared since last year, when President Donald Trump withdrew the United States from the landmark accord, which curbed tehrans Nuclear Programme in return for an easing of economic sanctions. Bethany bell reports from vienna. The Iran Nuclear Deal is under pressure. Since washington pulled out of the accord, it has reimposed punishing sanctions on iran. In response, iran has breached limits on its sensitive nuclear work. It is now enriching a root uranium to a higher purity, and has exceeded the amount of enriched uranium it is allowed to hold under the deal. Tehran has threatened to take further measures if the remaining parties to the accord, especially european nations, dont help it to circumvent us sanctions. In recent weeks, tensions have escalated further, with a number of incidents involving tankers and drones. Last week, iran impounded this british flag vessel in the gulf. The step was apparently in retaliation for britain detaining an iranian tanker in gibraltar. Europes Foreign Policy chief has called on iran to reverse its breaches of the nuclear deal, but iran says the steps are allowed as a response to us non compliance. Fresh protests are expected in hong kong today as the territory continues to be engulfed by huge Anti Government demonstrations. In the latest confrontation, police fired tear gas into crowds as tens of thousands marched to condemn an attack on pro democracy campaigners by armed mask men last week. Its still unclear how china will react to the increasingly violent demonstrations. Its emerged that a uk soldier who died in syria fighting the Islamic State group was killed by friendly fire. It was previously reported by us officials that sgt matt tonroe was killed by a roadside bomb in 2018. However, the ministry of defence said the 33 year old died as a result of explosives carried by allied american forces. Democrats in the United States have renewed accusations of racism against President Trump after he criticised an African American congressman. The president accused elijah cummings, whos the head of a powerful committee, of trying to hurt innocent people while doing nothing for his baltimore district, which mr trump branded as very dangerous and badly run. Mr cummings recently criticised the Trump Administration over conditions in migrant detention centres. A man and woman, aged 43 and 41, are being held by police after an alleged mass brawl on board a cruise ship.

Im quite strict with my kids on ipad use, im thinking of reviewing that policy now lets take a look at todays front pages. The sunday times reports on the new prime minister, borisjohnson, vowing to achieve brexit by any means necessary, and his minister michael gove saying the government is working on the assumption that the eu will not offer a new withdrawal deal. The sunday telegraph follows a similar line, saying that chancellor sajid javid is funding preparations for a no deal brexit. Not all conservatives are behind that idea, though. The observer claims that former chancellor Philip Hammond has been talking to labour about plans to prevent mrjohnson forcing through a no deal brexit. And the mail has done some polling which reportedly shows a10 increase in support for boris johnson, fuelling speculation that he might call an early general election. Whether youre jetting off with the grandparents or sunbathing with the in laws, it seems that more of us are going on holiday with our wider family members. For some, its about cost. For others, child care. But most say that family trips are a great way to spend quality time with one another as more families live further apart.

You have to say that, on telemetry, dont you . Fantastic. You have to say that, on telemetry, dont you . |j fantastic. You have to say that, on telemetry, dont you . I genuinely mean it if you are watching we still have this weather front straddling central parts of the uk from western scotland down towards the south east. Top and tail of the country, they will see the best of the country, just like yesterday. Quite a lot of standing water, minor flooding in one or two places, particularly the north midlands and into parts of north west england. It looks like it will stay very wet, disappointing conditions throughout this morning. A little bit of mist and fog with human areas around parts of scotland, some dry areas but downpours are likely to develop through the morning and into afternoon. Very different winds across the uk, across the north of the country, coming in from the east. That is why it is human and warm. We have the sunshine here, temperatures reaching the low to mid 20s celsius. A lovely day yesterday across shetland, 21. 6 celsius. Getting through tonight, that weather front will be fizzling out and becoming more confined to central areas. The rain will become a bit more showery and it will stay muqqy a bit more showery and it will stay muggy across northern and eastern areas, as temperatures come down to 1012. Areas, as temperatures come down to 10 12. Heading into monday, the weather front continues to move north, tending to fizzle out. Looking to the north west, low pressure for this time of year. That will come into play late on monday and tuesday and wednesday, for some heavy downpours. Not bad across parts of Northern Ireland and the midlands, a few showers in the north, but that said, lots of sunshine and warmer temperatures up to maybe six degrees. Windier in the south east, this area of low pressure will begin to push in north eastwards to the uk, showers and longer spells of rain coming with it. Some downpours could be quite intense, initially in the south western moving northwards, it tends to spread across much of england, so warm weather followed by torrential downpours. The best of the weather into scotland and western england, that looks like the best. Watch out for these heavy and thundery showers. Some torrential downpours. Bouncing down. A good excuse to stay indoors. There was so much sport to watch. We have all the details. An interesting day for the two difference as well. That is coming up with gavin. Tour de france. It is all about heavy metal and knitting. Finland recently hosted the first ever heavy metal and knitting World Champions. Natalie in edinburgh was the first to ta ke natalie in edinburgh was the first to take to the stage. Here she is. My my name is natalie and i was the first ever person in the world to be on stage knitting to heavy metal. Heavy metal knitting is basically what it says. A mixture of heavy metal and knitting. Someone had the brilliant idea to combine them both and create this first heavy metal knitting World Championship. It was absolutely an amazing act variance. Everybody was so warm. Although it was a competition, to be quite honest, it was about your tribe and making new friends. It was just a real metal feeling. Knitting can be seen as quite a conventional, traditional pastime. What i do is i need with unusual materials to take it to a new dimension. Pretty much 90 use recycled materials. It is quite thick. You cant make it to them because it might break or stretch. But it makes it really quite tough to net. It is also quite smelly a lot of people have told me, what the hell are you doing . What . knitting . Heavy metal . How does that linkup . Andy knitting or crochet or any textile work, there is a kind of rhythm to it, which goes very well with metal. I think next year will be just with metal. I think next year will bejust mega. It with metal. I think next year will be just mega. It is brilliant that people are interested in trying things out and just let go, let loose, just go for it. Annette knit speechless. Whatever floats your boat. That worked well. You can get more stories like that and a variety of other stories every weekday evening at nine oclock or on the bbc iplayer. We will be back with all the headlines at 630. Now it is time for the field make the film review. And this week, jane hill and Jason Solomons take a look at horrible histories and the current war. Hello and welcome to the film review on bbc news. To take us through this weeks cinema releases, Jason Solomons. So, jason, what do we have this week . This week, were going back in time, weve got the Horrible Histories Team and their little take on rotten romans, roman britain in the rule of emperor nero. Boudica, the celts, lee mack and nick frost those well known ancients. Someone also had a bright idea of making the current war, a starring drama out of Michael Shannon as george westinghouse, in a battle for the best light bulbs in america. Illuminating. And we escape to the greek island of hydra for a love story that lasted 56 years and inspired some of the most heartbreaking and famous songs 1960s, marianne and leonard words of love. Horrible histories is this something i should be taking my nieces to . Horrible histories was a boon for parents and families and something that everyone could watch and enjoy. It had Great Success on tv, where it has more of a sketch format, theyll do romans and victorians and the greeks and the 19405 and wartime. This is them just doing one thing, rotten romans, where they make the transition to the big screen and concentrate on one aspect. It hasnt got the original cast, so if you are a fan of them, theyre not really in this. Some of them make cameos, but they have got a bit starry for this, with a lot of famous faces. Every kid studies roman britain, so the Young Emperor nero, played by craig roberts, dominated by his mum, kim cattrall from sex and the city shes not in the original she sends atticus, atti, off to the wilds of the empire, the untameable stain of the empire, which is here, britain, where boudica is rousing the troops to rebellion and inspiring young women all over the place to take up arms, much to the disappointment of their fathers. Here, young 0rla, played by emilia jones, has captured atti and nick frost is not happy about it. Now, who says im not ready to be a warrior . What have you done . Taken a roman prisoner. All on my own. See . Told you i could do it. Youre just going to have to take him back. What . I thought youd be pleased. You cant keep a prisoner, its hard work you have to feed it, you have to exercise it. Whos going to clean up after him . I am here, you know. Hes my prisoner, i found him and i want to keep him. 0k, fine. Youll get bored soon enough and then someone will have to get rid of him. Theres no pleasing some people. Good fun . I like it. What i like is that were so used to these pixar films that are perfect, honed, the jokes are perfect, everything looks great and it is perfection. And this one looks like its been shot in the local park. I like that ropiness, theres an adhocness to it a nice latin phrase there are lots of funny gags, lots of fart gags, alexander armstrong, nick frost, people pop up and making cameo performances, derekjacobi. I really enjoyed it. High vs all round derekjacobi being in it is funny to me that gets the parents in. The current war, which i kind of feel should be good . Look at the cast Benedict Cumberbatch as thomas edison, Michael Shannon, always brilliant, playing george westinghouse. Youre saying, who are these two . Its billed as a battle for the future of america, its about whether you will use alternating current or direct current to light up america. Thats exciting, isnt it . It should be it was quite important. It was. In a way, it feels like vhs versus betamax, lycos versus google, the way the big brands battle now i suppose thats what was supposed to be interesting about it. I feel there is a
