sophie long, bbc news, los angeles. good luck to both of them and indeed all the nominees. now it's time for a look at the weather with nick miller. hello. with the exception of naughty scotland staying mostly dry today, elsewhere, we are seeing some rain for a time. that will eventually reach those parts of eastern england. it will stay dry for much of the day. this evening, clearing away and a few showers in the south—west. largely clear overnight for eastern scotland and north—east england, that is where we will have the lowest temperatures. this is where there is a greater chance of seeing a touch of frost going into the morning, whereas elsewhere, temperatures staying well above freezing. it's in the west tomorrow that we will see most of the cloud for northern ireland, wales, western parts of england into western scotland. that cloud increases. chances of seeing patches of rain, whereas the eastern scotland and down the eastern side of england, it will stay dry with plenty of sunny spells around. the winds tomorrow are lighter and in fact continue to ease as we go through the day and the temperatures are a bit higher, so if you do get see some sunshine, it is going to feel a little bit warmer. high pressure building in, not completely dry in the week ahead, certainly drier. calmer for a time than last week. hello, this is bbc news. the headlines... the home secretary is expected to receive a report from the metropolitan police by the end of today into its handling of a vigil in memory of sarah everard — it follows clashes between police and crowds on clapham common. we absolutely did not want to be in a position where enforcement action was necessary, but we were placed in this position because of the overriding need to protect people's safety. the foreign secretary makes another call for the immediate release of british—iranian nazanin zaghari—ratcliffe — after she appeared in court to face a new allegation of anti—government propaganda. authorities in the republic of ireland have recommended temporarily suspending use of the astrazeneca vaccine, after a report of four new cases of blood clotting events in adults who'd received the jab in norway. coronavirus cases increase in many european union countries as a third wave of the pandemic gathers speed. now on bbc news... the travel show visits fukushima in northeastern japan, meeting the surfers hoping to revive the region's fortunes, ten years on from the devastating nuclear disaster. this week on the show — the surfers making waves in fukushima, ten years after the nuclear disaster. the hunt for the priceless royal russian room stolen by the nazis. and we get a taste of sustainable sake. cheers to that! kanpai! we start this week in the fukushima region in north—eastern japan. now, as the world learns to cope with one disaster — a global pandemic — here, they're marking another. it's exactly ten years since an earthquake and tsunami triggered a nuclear catastrophe. the region has sadly become synonymous with those tragic events. a decade on, i'm here to find out how people are still battling to move on from the past. this is kitaizumi beach, some 70km from the centre of fukushima city. while it's hard to believe now, this beach was once one of the most popular surfing destinations injapan. surfing was popularised injapan in the 1960s, when american gis stationed here headed for the beaches, armed with their boards, and the surf scene has been growing ever since. but at 2:a6pm on march 11, 2011, everything changed when,100km up the coast, disaster struck. a nine magnitude earthquake triggered the most devastating tsunami injapanese history. person wails. deadly 14—metre waves engulfed entire communities, breaking down the walls of the daiichi nuclear power station, triggering four days of catastrophic failures to the reactor�*s cooling systems, releasing radioactivity and leading to an evacuation order covering a 12—mile radius. this man's home was washed away. in total, the disaster claimed over 18,000 lives. sadly, events organised to commemorate the 10th anniversary of this horrific moment have been cancelled or scaled back, due to the pandemic. today, a decade on, after a $20 billion clean—up operation, the government says as much as 97% of the prefecture is safe to visit. locals are returning to live and domestic tourism is on the up, partly thanks to these surfers. suzuki—san was one of the first people back in the water. and they did return. kitaizumi officially opened in 2019 after the community pulled together by cleaning up the beach and hiring lifeguards. and today, despite the water being about six degrees, there are plenty of surfers out. so how long have you been surfing? it's about five years. five years? i'm just a beginner. yeah. so why did you start surfing? you started after the earthquake — were you not worried about radiation in the water? i'm not so much scared to go because many, many people surfing out there, so... is it safe? yes, i think so, yeah. i'll test the wet sand. and it's 0.4, 0.5... still safe ? yes. levels have returned to where they were before the disaster, and despite a recent earthquake nearby, authorities say the water is completely safe. now, there are positive signs with the vaccine starting to be rolled out in many countries, but travel is still some way off for most of us so here's what is happening online around the world this coming month — something to keep us going until we can hit the road again. windmills overlooking endless fields of colourful tulips have been the traditional postcard of the netherlands for centuries. every year at the end of march, millions of tourists usually flock to this flat country to admire the flowers blooming. but in 2020, the pandemic hit and the festival of colour transferred online. this year again, you can catch keukenhof, and the largest flower park in the world, virtually. speaks dutch. from march 20, head to their website to watch two videos posted each week, with some of their 7 million flower bulbs putting on a show of colour. and although the wild parties usually held to celebrate the king's birthday on april 27 are on hold this year, you can still tour amsterdam's most famous museums online. they have joined forces with google to offer virtual tours of their collection. you can wander through the exhibition rooms of the van gogh museum and look at the painter�*s self—portraits on your own, without the crowds. if you miss nature, there are plenty of options to explore the wildlife from your couch. for example, twice a day on wildearth.tv, you can take part in a live safari in africa and interact with a guide while being filmed on the lookout for the big five. hey, girl! wow! what a stunner! you see that? scent marking as she goes. now, if anybody wonders what a fresh track looks like, that is it. grunts. webcams are everywhere, too. explore.org features hundreds of livestreams from all around the world. just choose the animal you're interested in. for those who'd like to celebrate world penguin day on april 25, you've got four live webcams to choose from, including one located underwater at the aquarium of the pacific in california. and finally, if you want to regain your fitness after lockdown, virtual marathons are now all the rage. you sign up to complete a full marathon wherever you live and register your timings using a running app. you can find a full range of virtual marathons on different websites. and if you need an extra incentive to take part, some of the proceeds for the next virtual marathon in mexico will go towards supporting local indigenous communities. well, still to come on the travel show — it's not as easy as it looks. i learn the craft and graft of creating prizeworthy sake. it's like sweeping treacle! so don't go away. next up, a tale of missing royal treasures. the opulent amber room was a stunningly intricate and ornate chamber built inside a russian palace near saint petersburg in the 18th century. but during the turmoil of world war ii, it was dismantled and shipped to germany, where it simply disappeared. elgar: salut d'amour, op 12 plays. an extraordinary tale of stolen gems there. and to end this week's show from fukushima, i am visiting one of the oldest sake breweries injapan. some say it's the fresh water that runs down from the surrounding mountains that makes fukushima sake so good. others say it's the extreme weather in the region. either way, the brewers are doing something right, as the region's world—famous sake has won a record—breaking amount of awards. sake is rice liquor that's over 2,000 years old. it used to be made by chewing grains of rice and splitting it into a vat, so that the saliva enzymes would ferment with the yeast to produce alcohol. needless to say, methods have moved on since then! there are over 60 breweries in fukushima, but this is one of the oldest. yauemon sato is the seventh generation owner. evolving technology means the quality of sake is higher than it's ever been. but the industry is at a crossroads and domestic sales here injapan are falling because younger people have developed a taste for beer and imported wines instead. so breweries like this one are turning to tourism and the international market, and it's paying off. exports are at a record high and innovation and sustainability are helping to fuel this growing craft sake movement. winter is the busiest time of year for sake breweries. colder winter temperatures make for a higher quality sake. the head brewer, or koji, still completes much so this smells just like rice. so it's been washed, then it's been dried, and now it's in here? i'm assuming there's yeast inside here to ferment? yes. the rice mash stays in the vat for a week. 0h! 0k. it's not as easy as it looks, actually. it's quite heavy. groans. it's like sweeping treacle. the whole process is incredibly labour—intensive. ten years ago, the brewery was left fighting for its survival. contamination from the nearby nuclear disaster meant all food and drink exports from fukushima had to be tested. after seeing the damage nuclear power can cause, sato—san founded a renewable energy company and now, much of the nearby land that was devastated by the nuclear fallout is home to long rows of solar panels. the local government says that by 20110, the entire region will be powered 100% by renewable energy. 100 kilometres away on the coast, another local is rebuilding her town's image with the help of sake. until a year ago, this area was a no—go zone. makiko—san returned home as soon as the evacuation orders were lifted. she was only 13 when the disaster struck. to break the stigma attached to her home town and to mark ten years since the disaster, she crowdfunded to launch the 0kuma sake project. cheers to that. kanpai! well, it was great to get a little taste of some fukushima sake. that's all we've got time for this week. coming up next time — while we all wait to start travelling again, we've got some more inspiration for you — this time from thailand, as we look back at some of our favourite adventures there. i'm about to step in the ring with momo. he looks really mean! in the meantime, you can catch up with more of our trips on social media — we're in all the usual places — and you can see more of our recent programmes on the bbc iplayer. but until next time, from all of us here in fukushima, injapan, keep planning your next adventure and we'll see you very soon. hello, most places started the day on a finer and this basis will see some by the day is done. some have been hanging onto sunshine for the rest day. forthe hanging onto sunshine for the rest day. for the west side of the uk, the cloud is always on. it will continue to feed that rain further south and there will be more weather fronts coming in on monday and tuesday. dry for much of the day and this evening and it clears overnight. showers running into the south—west. north—east scotland dry and north—east england also dry, with the greatest chance of temperatures dropping to freezing with a touch of frost. into tomorrow, some rain going into pembrokeshire and other places that will gradually feed its way east and will gradually feed its way east and will be in wales and northern ireland in the afternoon with patchy rain. it leaves eastern parts driest and sunniest. i would like to indicate that it is not as windy as it has been and they will ease further this afternoon and if you are in some sunshine, it will feel warm out there. high pressure is trying to building, just a couple of weather fronts to move through before that really becomes established. into tuesday, they will bring a couple of —— a little bit of rain. especially in scotland and northern ireland, plenty of sunshine here as well. much of england and wales will be cloudy and patchy with potential rain. temperatures will be higher and fewer present —— feel pleasant in the sunshine. it will be drier and, for pleasant in the sunshine. it will be drierand, fora time, pleasant in the sunshine. it will be drier and, for a time, but later in the week, with the high pressure here and the low pressure for the south of us, there will be strengthening when coming in from the east especially across england and wales, that will bring temperatures down and a few showers along with it. scotland and northern ireland will have temperatures that stay fairly average for this time of the year. drier and, for a time. winds pick up later in the week and with that colder airfor winds pick up later in the week and with that colder air for england and wales. good afternoon. you're watching bbc news with me, ben brown. we'll be joined by bbc one viewers for a full round—up of the day's news so far in just a few minutes. but first, ministers say they are waiting for the metropolitan police to "explain their actions," after clashes with women during a vigilfor sarah everard in south london last night. dame cressida dick is facing calls to resign, after officers handcuffed and dragged women away. earlier i spoke to dame vera baird, who's the victims�* commissioner for england and wales. she was previously police and crime commissioner for northumbria and is a former solicitor general. she told me the met�*s actions last night were wrong and disproportionate. i look forward to the home secretary's comments on the report she has requested from the metropolitan police commissioner, but as an inadvertent message to send out to women, in particular,
