curtain came down on theatres like this one and others up and down the uk, leaving empty chairs and empty stages. we will find out how it has affected those onstage and backstage and how they are preparing to reopen. another name in retail takes a hit. thorntons announce store closures, and greggs are expected to show a significant slump. who will survive the changes to how we eat and drink? it was the last major sporting event in the uk to be filled with fans. and now, a year on, the cheltenham festival will feel very different with no crowd, and no famous roar. and it may be a bit gloomy and damp as he cast open the curtains this morning. we will swap grey skies were blue ones as we go through the day. the full forecast here on breakfast. it's tuesday, the 16th march. our top story... the world health organization has urged countries not to pause covid vaccinations, after several major eu member states suspended their rollouts of the oxford—astrazeneca jab. the who says the vaccine is safe and there's no evidence that it causes blood clots. that is the world health organization of course. its vaccine safety experts will meet later to discuss the issue, as jim reed reports. 11 million people in the uk have already been given their first dose of the astrazeneca vaccine without any serious side effects emerging. but a growing number of other countries have now suspended its use after a small number of cases of blood clotting were recorded. france, germany, italy and spain have temporarily stopped using the vaccine as a precautionary measure, days after norway said three health care workers had needed hospital treatment. several other european countries, including austria, has stopped using certain batches of the drug. medical regulators in both the uk and the eu have said there is no evidence the clots were the result of being given the vaccine itself. manufacturer astrazeneca said the number of cases of blood clotting so far is no higher than doctors would expect to see in the general population in normal times. and the government's scientific advisers say there is no reason to pause the rollout in this country. the message for now is this vaccine is safe and effective. it's saved thousands and thousands of elderly and vulnerable people's lives and we're determined to press on with it unless we see a major safety signal to suggest otherwise — in which case we will be open and transparent with the public. later today, the safety committee of the eu drugs agency will meet to review all the cases that have come to light so far. if it gives the green light, then other countries are likely to resume their vaccination programmes quickly. in the uk, the message from scientists is to take any coronavirus jab if offered, as all the data so far show the risks of catching covid far outweigh the risks of a side effect from any vaccine. jim reed, bbc news. downing street has announced a series of measures aimed at improving safety in england for women and girls in the wake of the death of sarah everard. it's after hundreds of people took part in another vigil for the 33—year—old in london last night. dan johnson reports. chanting this reaction, the strength of feeling, isn't just about sarah everard's death, but the wider questions that have been raised about women's safety and the response of the police. yesterday, officers kept a low profile and a mostly hands—off approach, at the start of this gathering in parliament square. it went ahead despite the home secretary urging people to stick to covid regulations, and in defiance of the government's new policing bill, part of which will limit future protests. last night, the home office said it was already increasing the amount spent making our streets safer, from £20 million to £16 million. this investment will go on very practical measures like increased and better lighting, more cctv, to try to give people that confidence that we really, really want to instil after last week's terribly, terribly sad events. last night's vigil moved to westminster bridge, downing street and the headquarters of london's metropolitan police. the organisation, reclaim the streets, says it has lost faith in the leadership of the force. officers did step in, telling people to keep moving and head home, orface fines for breaching lockdown rules. at the centre of all this, we cannot forget an innocent young woman, who was just walking home. sarah everard's death has already shaken this country, making us question how society works and whether it fairly protects everyone. danjohnson, bbc news, central london. danjohnson is at new scotland yard this morning. good morning to you. a little quieter there this morning. the debate continues today, doesn't it? absolutely, yes. the metropolitan police has been the focus of further protests last night. the force is under pressure. the government has announced extra money to try to make the streets safer. that fund is for councils to bid for, it could be used to provide extra patrols late at night was that there is suggestion some pilot projects could be extended which could see plain clothes officers policing in bars and nightclubs when they are able to reopen. labour has said that investment doesn't go anywhere near far enough, not even replacing the cuts made to local services over the last few years. the organisation, reclaim the streets has welcomed the funding but says there are deeper issues which need to be addressed. misogyny is baked into the issue, the police, the courts, the criminal justice system. the government says its bill will extend sentences, will give the police more powers and bring morejustice give the police more powers and bring more justice for give the police more powers and bring morejustice for victims. there are concerns about the impact that could have on the right to protest in future. this case has raised some serious questions, some big issues which will take time to be understood and addressed. at the heart of this there is a family, loved ones that are still grieving and sarah everard's murder investigation is still going on as well. . ~ , ., investigation is still going on as well. . ~' ~ , , . ~' investigation is still going on as well. . ~ ,, ., well. thank you. we will speak to ou later well. thank you. we will speak to you later this _ well. thank you. we will speak to you later this morning. _ free school meals should be extended in england over the summer holiday this year — that's according to the new children's commissioner dame rachel de souza. speaking to the bbc, she said children have paid a high price during the pandemic and now is the time to rethink the support they need. our education editor branwenjeffreys reports. playing with friends at school. children have missed so much this year, so a huge survey of children is planned in england, to understand their experiences. the children's commissioner argues for children in government. the new woman in the job says families still need support. she told me free school meals should stay through the summer. i absolutely want to see free school meals extended, and i'm very concerned about suggestions of dropping universal credit. if universal credit was dropped down again, i'd like to see services provided in that case but i'd rather it wasn't dropped. do you think they were too slow to listen to marcus rashford? yes. these six formers said the pandemic had affected all their lives. seeing people, as a kind of recreational activity, kind of went down to nothing. and i think the impact that has on someone's mind, especially in this period of your life, when you're a teenager... this is the time when most of your memories are made. there needs to be change to helping people who have been affected, notjust by the pandemic but by years long inequalities. the last year has made visible pressures on children's lives that were already there. the children who got a quiet place to study and those that don't — families under pressure struggling to put food on the table. and the pressures on young people's mental health. the government said there is more support in schools, for mental health and catching up, as well as £220 million going to local councils — cash for holiday activities and food for families who need help this year. branwen jeffreys, bbc news. the sister of the north korean leader kimjong—un has warned the us not to "cause a stink", asjoe biden�*s administration prepares to set out its korean policy. kim yo—jong criticised the us and south korea for conducting joint military exercises. her comments come a day before the us secretaries of state and defence are due to arrive in south korea. nicola sturgeon is to reveal her latest plan to ease lockdown restrictions in scotland later. it's thought the first minister will give more detail on when shops and hospitality will be able to open. she's previously said her government will be led by "data, not dates." and in northern ireland, ministers will also meet to review lockdown restrictions. they're expected to provide further clarity on when all school children will return to classes. let's take a look at this remarkable footage of a pod of orcas swimming off the coast of shetland. the pictures were filmed by photographer gary buchan, who was able to follow them for 45 minutes, as they played with each other. some whale facts for you — male orcas can grow to a jaw—dropping 8 metres in length, and can weigh up to 6 tons. despite that weight, they can travel at speeds of up to 30 miles per hour. what lovely pictures, aren't they? glorious. now the weather with matt. it looks foreboding. it does at the moment. it is going to be a day that improves. bearwith moment. it is going to be a day that improves. bear with it, things will get brighter. a bit of a damp start in many areas. through the day, the sunshine will gradually come out and most of us will be under blue skies this afternoon. this is where the rain is falling on the child. light and patchy in the south and east. the heaviest band in the east of scotland, the north of england. they are ushering in the brighter conditions. reaching southern counties late morning, around lunchtime. the rain could linger across east anglia and the south—east. elsewhere, the skies brighten up and the cloud breaks up. a bit of a breeze blowing. it will have a huge impact on temperatures. mild for this stage in march. in herefordshire, it should reach about 16 degrees. in the channel islands, south—east england and east anglia, you will be struggling to get the brighter weather till later in the day. the evening will turn brighter before the sun finally disappears. tonight, clearskies before the sun finally disappears. tonight, clear skies to begin with. maybe patchy rain in the far north—east of scotland. mostly a dry night, a chilly night with a touch of frost. for the rest of the day the emphasis remains on dry weather but it will turn cooler, particularly towards the south. more details at 6:45am and i will reveal the weather watcher picture winner. we're talking food shopping habits this morning, and how the pandemic has hit hospitality. nina's here with more. lots of guesswork happening about when we come out of this, whether we will shop more locally or go back to the supermarkets. that's right, it's almost a year now since we started fighting for online supermarket delivery spots, and since restaurants began pivoting towards takeaways and deliveries. the big question now as we dare to dream a return to normal — is whether normal will look different. you might not have noticed if you haven't been to your local high street, but, in 2020, more than 17,500 chain stores closed. the latest casualty is thorntons. the company which was founded in sheffield more than 100 years ago is to shut all 61 of its shops putting around 600 jobs at risk. it has been a torrid time for hospitality with literally dozens of well known names shutting outlets and cutting jobs. (an14)but the pandemic has triggered a huge rise in takeaways. we spent around £30 per family per month last summer — that is four times pre—pandemic spend. pre—pandemic would you have entertained a sausage — or even vegan sausage roll delivery? greggs is one of the high street names which has moved to deliveries. their results are out in an hour and we should get some insight in to what their plans are next. are they sticking with the idea of moving branches out of city centres and on to smaller high streets? are we set to stick to local eating? we spoke with shoppers in rawtenstall in lancashire. we're definitely eating healthier because i think we're cooking a lot more fresh food, and more interested in what we're cooking, so spending more time in the kitchen. i think that means we're buying a lot more interesting food as well. maybe, you know, more spices, more herbs, making things taste better because you can't go out to a restaurant. i think that we've been buying definitely more local. we've got a great fruit and veg shop in town, we've got a great butcher's, so we do kind of try and support them throughout these times. shopping—wise, i think we've been trying go to big supermarkets less often and just getting what we need at the time really. i'm personallyjust looking forward to not having to think _ about what to cook on a friday or a saturday night _ and just going out . for something to eat. i think we've tried to... at first it was like, - "eat whatever you want, it doesn't matter," and now it's |trying to be a bit more mindfulj because we're going to be allowed out again soon. . i feel a ifeel a bit like i feel a bit like that. ifeel a bit like that. dying i feel a bit like that. dying to get out. what have you learned over the last year about eating from home and which of those habits will stick. we get results from greggs in about an hour. we know brands like greggs do well post recession. you might not go out for a £10 burger but you might get a lovely sausage roll for £1. they did plan to go out of city centres and into towns. we will find out if they have the capital to go ahead with that investment. stop! sausaue ahead with that investment. stop! sausage rolls _ ahead with that investment. stop! sausage rolls is _ ahead with that investment. stop! sausage rolls is one _ ahead with that investment. stop! sausage rolls is one of _ ahead with that investment. stop! sausage rolls is one of my - ahead with that investment. stop! sausage rolls is one of my favourite things. i go on a very long bike ride for the sausage rolls. that is sausage roll commitment. see you later on. let's take a look at today's papers. and the story that's dominating most of the front pages this morning is the suspension of the rollout of the oxford—astrazeneca vaccine in a number of european countries. the daily mail's headline reads "reckless" eu snubs ukjab." meanwhile, the guardian leads on the advice from the eu medicines regulator, which says the benefits of the jab far outweigh the risks. the times focuses on the uk's regulator, which says there's no evidence that the vaccine causes blood clots after studying data on 11—million people who have had already had the jab here. and the website for the french newspaper, le figaro, says the european medicines agency has called an �*extraordinary�* meeting for thursday — to decide what action should be taken next. we are talking about that throughout the programme this morning. i think it is ten past eight we have fergus walsh, who will be able to talk about any questions you have about the vaccine. our medical editor will be here to answer those issues. i have two things. touching on what nina was saying, you know how we are constantly adjusting what is in a basket for the consumer price index. what do you think is in? is it sausage rolls? they are not in there, unfortunately. hand sanitiser, we are buying more than that. jogging bottoms. women's hideous and sweatshirts. smart light bulbs and maltesers. out goes ground coffee, takeaway sandwiches. nine karat gold chain and women's casual trousers. i don't know who is not buying a nine karat gold chain. i am just reading what it says. you will like this one. i was going to read that. it is my favourite story of the day. hot cross buns are for any time of year and you can find them in any supermarket, according to dan anyway! hot cross buns met many buy them around easter time. how many seconds do you need to toast them for? researchers seeking the perfect hot cross bun say it is 62 seconds is how long you should toast a hot cross bun for. do you put something on top of it? but all the time and occasionally butter and jam. ok. on top of it? but all the time and occasionally butterand jam. ok. —— butter. i am a maverick! shall we talk about the oscars as well? fingers crossed, there could be british success in the oscars. emerald fennel is leading a charge for the most successful acting performance in two decades. she was the first british woman ever nominated in the best director category. she has received three nods on account of her direction, production and writing. a promising young woman. very impressive. not entirely sure how they are going to do the oscars. the emmys were from home and the grammys, there are limited numbers of people in the room. we will wait to see what happens with the oscars. the events surrounding the death of sarah everard and the vigil in her memory have prompted conversations about how women feel about their safety. ellie gould was killed in 2019. brea kfast�*s tim muffett has been speaking to her friends about their loss, and what needs to change. ellie was lovely, she was great. i met her when i went to sixth form, the first day of school. eddie gould was murdered by her former boyfriend in 2019. for herfriend harriet, recent events have been hard to bear. the past few days have been really challenging. they definitely bring back a lot of memories and emotions from when we lost ellie. what kind of conversations have you been having with your friends? we've had lots of conversations about it. i think they differ between the people, really. talking to my male friends, they want to learn about what i have to say about it, or they want to learn about my experiences and what i go through day to day because they can't understand it. they don't go through it themselves. hearing that it happened to someone else is so... it's so sad, and i hope people can step back and think, "it could be me, it could be my mum, it could be my sister, it could be anyone." these conversations are so important. following the death of sarah everard, they're the sort of conversations that are taking place amongst friends and within families across the country. for ellie's friends, those conversations have been especially poignant and, at times, impassioned. we're still in a situation where women are dying weekly because of men. i think there comes a time where you need to look at the source of the problem and men need to change. it has obviously been devastating seeing the family having to go through something very similar to what we went through. for some, this is a chance to reflect on other types of unacceptable behaviour by some men towards women. a lot of the time, men like to get defensive when women are expressing their fears and thoughts on men. for others, there is a risk that men who have done nothing wrong are also being blamed. we understand it is not all men. when we say all men, it is because we don't have time to pick and choose what man is going to do something to us when we are walking down the street. we don't have time to think, "is this a good person or is it a bad person? am i going to get assaulted or am i not?" we just react in that situation. we understand it's not all men but it's too many men for us to be able to differentiate. is there a danger by doing that, people who are innocent will get blamed for other people's behaviour? we're just saying we'd like men to be more accountable for their actions and think, "should i walk is close to a woman? is my friend being too touchy of a lady in a club?" we just want men to be more aware. it's not uncomfortable, not for me at least to talk about, because, at the end of the day, from what we've seen, men are the ones causing this issue a large proportion of the time. and so, i think, we do need to address it at the source. thankfully, very few people will ever experience the pain this group of friends have gone through. many of us are having similar conversations. tim muffett, bbc news. that is something we are going to continue talking about today here. if you have anything you want to add, to get in touch with us. you know how to do that. still to come on breakfast... we'll speak to the wildlife photographer, whose urban garden in sheffield became a lifeline during lockdown, helping him capture these amazing images. and we want to see yours! have you got any? yes, you've got plenty. i spend a lot of time looking around in the garden these days. what have you spotted from your window over the last year? send us your photos to [email protected], and we'll show some of them later on the programme. time now to get the news, travel and weather where you are. good morning from bbc london, i'm asad ahmad. plain clothes police officers are to patrol bars and nightclubs in an effort to protect women from predatory offenders. officers will look at actively identifing those acting suspiciously in the night time economy when it restarts, possibly within weeks. better lighting and more cctv has also been promised by the task force chaired by the prime minister. it follows following the murder of sarah everard, who went missing in south london two weeks ago. well, a metropolitan police officer involved in the search for ms everard, has been removed from duties for allegedly sharing an inappropriate graphic. scotland yard said the image was shared on social media on friday, and was reported by a number of officers who were concerned by its content. the pc involved will still work in what's called a non—public facing role. the constable has been referred to the police watchdog. the contents of the graphic has not been disclosed. the homeless charity shelter says around 20% of adult londoners are now more worried about becoming homeless, due to the coronavirus pandemic. following a survey, the charity estimates that more than 10% of adults have — in the past year — cut back on food or skipped meals to pay their rent or mortgage. a government says households have been at the heart of decision—making throughout the pandemic. a look at the travel situation, and the advice from the government is still to stay home unless yourjourney is essential and you are allowed to make it. if you are, this is what the tube board looks like. the hammersmith & city line has minor delays due to train cancellations. on the roads, it's busier than usual on the a13 in to town. the exit slip at lodge avenue is closed by the police, adding to the usual delays. and in west london, at paddington, lancaster terrace is closed for repairs to a burst water main. now the weather with kate kinsella. good morning. it's a rather grey, cloudy start this morning. we've got some outbreaks of rain as well, and it looks like it's going to stay largely cloudy throughout. now, the wind is light first thing. it will strengthen into the afternoon. high pressure still in charge, but a couple of fronts still moving through, a warm front, followed by a cold front. so that's what's bringing these outbreaks of rain. some dry spells between them. through the afternoon, gradually those fronts sinking south. so the cloud could potentially clear the further north you are. temperatures are feeling very mild despite that strengthening wind. we're looking at a maximum of 11! celsius this afternoon. overnight tonight, some clear spells. chilly in one or two spots. cloud feeding into the east. it is thick enough to produce the odd spot of rain, but nothing more significant. the minimum temperature between three and five celsius. some bright spells at first tomorrow, but again, the cloud will start to feed in from the east. thick enough to produce the odd spot of rain through tomorrow. it gets a little bit chilly on thursday. we pick up a north easterly breeze. va nessa vanessa feltz is getting ready to start her breakfast show from seven. hello, this is breakfast with louise minchin and dan walker. just coming up to 6:30am. "baffling" and "disappointing" — those are just two of the words used by british scientists about the decision to halt the roll—out of the oxford astrazeneca vaccine in some european countries. it's over concerns about possible side effects, but the manufacturer says there's no evidence a link between the vaccine and blood clots. let's speak now to gp dr rachel ward. good morning. it is really

sally, you wouldn't be here? yes, iwould be standing in the cold looking forward to an exciting day of racing at cheltenham. not they are today because everything is so different. —— not there today. the biggest festival in the british horse racing calendar gets under way today — but unlike last year, there will be no fans at cheltenham. the pandemic means the stands will be empty. and the sport's image has been badly damaged recently — trainer gordon elliott and amateur jockey robjames were pictured sitting on dead horses. i think that the images shown in recent weeks, and seeing those break through into mainstream media, and outside of racing media, is damaging. and we really need to redouble efforts to build that public trust and to show the general public that horse welfare is at the centre of everything we do, and that this is just a truly wonderful sport. more on cheltenham later in the programme. let's take a look at last night's action in the premier league. and jurgen klopp described liverpool's win over wolves as "three dirty points". diogojota scored the only goal of the game, against his former side. but there was a worrying incident at the end when the wolves goalkeeper rui patricio was stretchered off with a nasty looking head injury, after colliding with one of his own players. he was conscious and he's said to be ok. we wish him, of course, all the best

importance immediately, yes? whisper it quietly, but we could finally have the big fight between anthonyjoshua and tyson fury. joshua's promoter eddie hearn says they've signed a two—fight deal. when and where are yet to be determined, but boxing commentator steve bunce believes it could well be a very lucrative contract. it would generate more money than any other fight in history, and that could be gazumped by their rematch. it would generate $400 and $500 million, i'm absolutely convinced of that. there's a suggestion that the pay per view for fans in great britain could be as much as £40 - £40! and you know what? you do three or four million of those at 40 quid, you've got an awful lot of money already in your kitty. that's quite a lot of cash, isn't it? i said we would have more on cheltenham. one of the jockeys who'll be there this year is ten—time cheltenham winner tom scudamore — hejoins us now. morning to you, tom. thank you so much forjoining us this morning. obviously this

in england were delighted to see their children back at school last week — but for many, the struggle continues. more than 50,000 children have yet to return to the classroom because they're shielding, while some other parents have chosen to keep pupils away in order to protect other vulnerable family members. breakfast�*s jayne mccubbin reports on how the last year has left some families torn and struggling to cope. early years, welcome back. come on in. a week ago, this was only part of the story. ready? one, two, three... this is leo. you're getting very heavy. hello, there! jude and flynn. 0h, we've headbutted each other. twins arthur and alfie. these are some of the children who aren't yet going back to school. if i'm honest with you, i felt forgotten the whole way through. yes, they could go back to school and they'd be with their friends. but if they brought it home, they might lose their mum. these are some of the families who are exhausted after a full year of shielding and home schooling. you know, one time i timed it, and it was 92 times in one hour that i heard "mummy". erm, yeah. jude and flynn are fit, healthy, happy boys, but their mum is shielding with chronic asthma, and the family decided to keep the boys away from school. we'd got everything ready. we'd bought the shoes, tried on the uniforms, got the new book bags. and then we just had this kind of dawning, i guess, thinking, we're just sending them back, and the only thing to protect me is just crossing our fingers and hoping for the best. and why would we do that after all this time that we've been able to stay safe at home together? you could be told that that's an unauthorised absence, and you could possibly be fined for that. and you're a solicitor as well, so you understand the rules and regulations very well. i think ultimately we were prepared to do that if we had to. i think it's very unfortunate that people in our situation are having to make that kind of choice, because ultimately it isn't my children's fault that they've got a disabled mum. charlotte says she is thankful for an understanding headteacher. emma is not willing to take the risk. two of her children are shielding and can't go to school. but three have been told they must. if i don't send them, i'd get fined. and i could get into trouble for it. but they're also expecting me to shield the two. now bear in mind i'm on my own with them, so i have to get three children to education, but also shield two. this is nowjust part of her exhausting daily routine, trying to keep the virus out by disinfecting, washing and wiping every time the children come in. i had a bit of a cry yesterday, to be fair, because it was just, what is going on? this is madness. we're planting the bulbs in. some families are physically and mentally exhausted after a year without the support they'd usually rely on. leo is shielding. you can't afford to fall apart for a second... no, absolutely. ..because you're mum and teacher and nurse and... and dad. 0h, don't, you'll start me off. but, i've not even cried for my dad passing yet, because when i do get upset — oh, here we go — when i do get upset, he, erm... ..his world falls apart. if she's upset, then something really bad is happening. i love you bottom of my heart. do you? i love you from the bottom of my heart. in school, leo used to have one to one support. his mum had access to respite. but since september, he's only had one daily 30—minute zoom with a teaching assistant. his mum hasn't had a break in a year. it's literallyjust — this gives you an indication — it'sjust below the surface. it's a millimetre thick. so, yes, it's... ..erm, yeah, iwouldn't change my life. you know, when i get to the end of this, you know, it will be the greatest fight that i've ever had. the government says school is the best place for children, and those who live with someone who is shielding are still expected to go in, though headteachers can authorise absences in exceptional circumstances. jude and flynn will go back to school two weeks after their mum's second jab at the start of may. i'm missing my friends, but i'm ok and i'm happy at home protecting mummy. but for alfie, arthur and leo, it's complicated. all right, bubble? the government is expected to end shielding at the end of march. but will that be enough to give parents the confidence to send their vulnerable children back into class? i think i'd feel a bit more relieved once the vaccine comes out for the children. the first uk study to assess the safety of a covid vaccine for kids only started two weeks ago. it's been a struggle for so many, but there's been joy too. one of the joys of this, erm, this whole thing, is the fact that i have got hugs and love on tap, you know, from leo, because he is such a lovely, caring and thoughtful little boy. it's hard to watch that, isn't it? it's hard to watch that, isn't it? it's a beautiful relationship but you can

pick of the season winner from her weather watchers files. let's get the forecast first. the skies in buckinghamshire won't win many awards, a bit grey and murky. bear with it. it will gradually turn drier and sunnier across the country. most of us will be under blue skies this afternoon. look at the satellite picture. if you have the satellite picture. if you have the cloud from space. it is this gap we are keeping an eye on. it is moving south and east behind this zone of cloud. brightening up quickest in scotland and northern ireland. the heaviest rain at the moment is in eastern scotland into the far north west of england, north and west wales. patchy rain at the south and east. it drier for a time. the rain moves to a south through the morning. most will see the cloud break up. the sunshine comes out. a blustery wind. nowhere near as strong as we saw last week. temperatures this afternoon will be into double figures, just about a uk wide. and one or two across part of the south lake district could reach 17 degrees. it may take until this evening before we see sunshine in east anglia and the south—east. a chillier night. temperatures are low enough for frostjust chillier night. temperatures are low enough for frost just about anywhere. fog parishes in north west england, the midlands and wales. as we going to midway, wednesday, high pressure in the chart. high pressure means dry generally. we are still spilling some cloud in across northern and eastern areas. showers into east anglia and the south—east. the odd spot of drizzle in the north of scotland. overall a dry day. fog will clear by mid—morning. sunshine for many. clouding over in northern scotland and northern ireland later in the day. cooler than today. high pressure moves further west as we go into thursday. winds coming around into thursday. winds coming around in this direction. we start to see more of a northerly wind across the country on thursday. more cloud around. still some good sunny spells here and there. southern scotland, maybe the south coast reasonably well favoured. still the chance of rain in east anglia and the south—east. temperatures on the eastern coast due to the breeze, eight to nine celsius. dry through friday into the weekend. for most. a breeze in the south. that brings us to the big reveal of what will be the picture of the season for winter. voted for that by the british public. all our weather watchers shots well used on breakfast. the winner this season goes to this shot. a stunning shot. let me move out of the way. from glen coe in the highlands. just to the south of fort william. an absolutely stunning shot. i think you will agree it really summed up winterfor many of you will agree it really summed up winter for many of us at one point, looking decidedly chilly and snowy as well. well done. i love the textures in it. it is absolutely stunning and well deserved. absolutely stunning and well deserved-— absolutely stunning and

a bit of tartan tie. beautiful. thank you. exactly one year ago today, the pandemic forced theatres to bring down their curtains indefinitely. many of them have been plunged into economic turmoil by the shutdown, with some smaller theatres warning that they may never reopen. our reporter ben boulos is at the apollo theatre in london's west end. morning, ben. good morning. yes, on this day exactly a year ago theatres like this one and others across the country went dark. they were told they had to close because of the pandemic. in a normalyear they had to close because of the pandemic. in a normal year something like 34 million people would visit a theatre, packing out of the stalls. and through ticket sales, restaurant meals and coach sales, that would generate more than £1 million in vat for the government. in a moment we hear how they are planning to reopen safely. at first, a look at the impact it has had ever since the night the show did not go on. theatres as they're meant to be. but for a year, uk theatres have been deserted, suddenly told to close on the 16th of march, 2020, leaving empty chairs and empty stages, and empty order books, at this props maker and supplier. the week before the theatres closed we'd just opened phantom of the opera and we'd just opened the back to the future musical in manchester. we'd just got back to london and we had this crazy, busy time planned. and itjust all stopped. i mean, everything stopped. we told our guys that we would stop for two weeks and see what happened. then it was seven months before we came back here. during that long interval the workshop became a hub for the show must go on campaign, raising £800,000 to support theatre workers who'd lost theirjobs, and nhs charities. during lockdown the national theatre streamed 16 shows online, watched by millions around the world. the industry welcomed the government's £1.5 billion emergency support for arts venues like this one. but some fear the effects of the long shutdown on the industry's many freelance workers. the impact has been much, eh, most harshly felt by the freelancers who we work with. the vast majority, 70% of the theatre industry, are freelancers. and i think almost 40% of them have not been eligible for any government support. and as you can imagine, there's been no work at all. the impact on their lives has been chronic. at the time i was living with some housemates who were technicians. and we got the text like one after the other, like, you've lost your work, you've lost your work. harri marshall is a freelance theatre maker in york who's deaf. her furlough ended after three months, and she had to find other work. my steady income job at the minute is, i'm a ward clerk of the nhs. so i work on the labour ward, which is really, really busy at the minute, as you can imagine. like, it's so nice to see a lot of people having families, but it's also like, why are there so many? i'd really love to resume being a freelancer again. picking up where i kind of left of almost exactly a year ago. so i'd love to continue nerding out with the lights and the programming. i'd love to keep making work with young people and vulnerable adults. and i'd really love to keep directing and writing my own shows. but we'll all have to wait and see. # one more look and iforget everything. # mamma mia...# uk theatres could start to reopen from the 17th of may, albeit with social distancing and limited audience numbers. it won't be scenes like this right away. but it's certainly something to sing about. well, let's find out how exactly theatres are going to try to reopen safely. let's speak to the mics of the imax theatre, six theatres in the imax theatre, six theatres in the west end. nico, how would you get

officers will look at actively identifing those acting suspiciously in the night time economy when it restarts possibly within weeks. better lighting and more cctv has also been promised by the taskforce chaired by the prime minister. it follows the murder of sarah everard, who went missing in south london two weeks ago. and in connection to that case, a metropolitan police officer involved in the search for ms everard has been removed from duties for allegedly sharing an "inappropriate graphic." scotland yard said the image was shared on social media, and was reported by a number of officers, "who were concerned by its content." the pc involved will still work in what's called a "non—public facing role." the constable has been referred to the police watchdog. the contents of the graphic has not been disclosed. the homeless charity, shelter, says around 20% of adult londoners are now more worried about becoming homeless, due to the coronavirus pandemic. following a survey, the charity estimates that more than 10% of adults have, in the past year, cut back on food or skipped meals to pay their rent or mortgage. the government says "households have been at the heart of decision—making throughout the pandemic. " a look at the travel situation, and the advice from the government is still to stay home unless yourjourney is essential and you are allowed to make it. if you are, this is what the tube board looks like. the hammersmith & city line has minor delays due to train cancellations. on the roads, it's busier than usual on the a13 in to town. the exit slip at lodge avenue is closed by the police adding to the usual delays. and in west london, at paddington: lancaster terrace is closed for repairs to a burst water main. now the weather with kate kinsella. good morning. it's a rather grey, cloudy start this morning. we've got some outbreaks of rain as well, and it looks like it's going to stay largely cloudy throughout. now, the wind is light first thing. it will strengthen into the afternoon. high pressure still in charge, but a couple of fronts still moving through, a warm front, followed by a cold front. so that's what's bringing these outbreaks of rain. some dry spells between them. through the afternoon, gradually those fronts sinking south. so the cloud could potentially clear the further north you are. temperatures are feeling very mild despite that strengthening wind. we're looking at a maximum of 14 celsius this afternoon. overnight tonight, some clear spells. chilly in one or two spots. cloud feeding into the east. it is thick enough to produce the odd spot of rain, but nothing more significant. the minimum temperature between three and five celsius. some bright spells at first tomorrow, but again, the cloud will start to feed in from the east. thick enough to produce the odd spot of rain through tomorrow. it gets a little bit chilly on thursday. we pick up a north easterly breeze. i'm back with the latest from the bbc london newsroom in half an hour. good morning. welcome to breakfast with dan walker and louise minchin. our headlines today... the eu's biggest nationsjoin the list of countries suspending use of the oxford—astrazeneca vaccine. but the jab is safe, according to the world health organisation and british experts. the message for now is the vaccine is safe and effective. it has saved thousands and thousands of elderly and vulnerable people's lives. hundreds more gather to remember sarah everard, as downing street unveils new measures to protect women. we're looking forward to the cheltenham festival but it will look very different to previous years, with no fans in the stands when it gets underway today. and it may be a bit grey and gloomy as he opened the curtains today that brighter skies are under way. most of us see sunshine this afternoon. a full forecast during breakfast. it's tuesday, the 16th of march. the world health organization has urged countries not to pause covid vaccinations, after several major eu member states suspended their rollouts of the oxford—astrazeneca jab. the who says the vaccine is safe, and there's no evidence that it causes blood clots. its vaccine safety experts will meet later to discuss the issue, as jim reed reports. 11 million people in the uk have already been given their first dose of the astrazeneca vaccine without any serious side effects emerging. but a growing number of other countries have now suspended its use after a small number of cases of blood clotting were recorded. france, germany, italy and spain have temporarily stopped using the vaccine as a precautionary measure, days after norway said three health care workers had needed hospital treatment. several other european countries, including austria, has stopped using certain batches of the drug. medical regulators in both the uk and the eu have said there is no evidence the clots were the result of being given the vaccine itself. manufacturer astrazeneca said the number of cases of blood clotting so far is no higher than doctors would expect to see in the general population in normal times. and the government's scientific advisers say there is no reason to pause the rollout in this country. the message for now is this vaccine is safe and effective. it's saved thousands and thousands of elderly and vulnerable people's lives and we're determined to press on with it unless we see a major safety signal to suggest otherwise — in which case we will be open and transparent with the public. later today, the safety committee of the eu drugs agency will meet to review all the cases that have come to light so far. if it gives the green light, then other countries are likely to resume their vaccination programmes quickly. in the uk, the message from scientists is to take any coronavirus jab if offered, as all the data so far show the risks of catching covid far outweigh the risks of a side effect from any vaccine. jim reed, bbc news. france is amongst the european countries that have stopped administering the oxford—astrazeneca vaccine. let's speak to our paris correspondent hugh schofield. morning to you. what exactly is the discussion around this topic at the moment in france? it is discussion around this topic at the moment in france?— moment in france? it is the precautionary _ moment in france? it is the precautionary principle, - moment in france? it is the precautionary principle, our| moment in france? it is the . precautionary principle, our old friend the precautionary principle, which come in so much policy in europe and arguably slows things down when they do not need to be slowed down. there are no signs of any side effects being reported in any side effects being reported in any number here in france. there have been it seems in other countries but not here in france. as part of a european group action, and in coordination therefore with other countries, in particular germany, france has gone ahead with this suspension of the drug. a lot of people will be saying, it is just france doing what it was doing earlier on with astrazeneca, sour grapes and all of that post—brexit, trying to diss the uk vaccine. i do not think it is that in this case. astrazeneca, the vaccine from astrazeneca, the vaccine from astrazeneca is very much part of french strategy now. the french programme is not going well and it needs all the drugs it can get. astrazeneca was filling a very important hole in the market may be directed towards the wider community, people are about 50 with how morbidity is. it can be delivered easily by doctors and pharmacies and does not need to be stored and so on. it is very much part of french strategy. france is having to suspend use of this drug which means its vaccination programme, which has already got off to a slow start, is slow down even further. it wants it over very quickly. it is hoping when europeans meet it as quickly put back on the market. . ~ meet it as quickly put back on the market. .,

death of sarah everard. it's after hundreds of people took part in another vigilfor the 33—year—old in london last night. dan johnson reports. chanting this reaction, the strength of feeling, isn't just about sarah everard's death, but the wider questions that have been raised about women's safety and the response of the police. yesterday, officers kept a low profile and a mostly hands—off approach, at the start of this gathering in parliament square. it went ahead despite the home secretary urging people to stick to covid regulations, and in defiance of the government's new policing bill, part of which will limit future protests. last night, the home office said it was already increasing the amount spent making our streets safer, from £20 million to £45 million. this investment will go on very practical measures like increased and better lighting, more cctv, to try to give people that confidence that we really, really want to instil after last week's terribly, terribly sad events. last night's vigil moved to westminster bridge, downing street and the headquarters of london's metropolitan police. the organisation, reclaim these streets, says it has lost faith in the leadership of the force. officers did step in, telling people to keep moving and head home, orface fines for breaching lockdown rules. at the centre of all this, we cannot forget an innocent young woman, who was just walking home. sarah everard's death has already shaken this country, making us question how society works and whether it fairly protects everyone. danjohnson, bbc news, central london. danjohnson is at new scotland yard this morning. the discussions around all of this are still continuing, aren't they? absolutely, yes. that morning. the protest that ended here last night resulted in another four arrests. the concern in response to this case goes far beyond london and that is why the government has made this extra £25 million available through its safer streets are planned. that is many councils can apply for, it could go on providing late—night controls orfunding could go on providing late—night controls or funding plainclothes officers to police bars and nightclubs when they can reopen. labour has said the extra money does not even go far enough to cover cuts to local services that had taken place over the last ten years. reclaim these streets welcomes the funding but says there are deeper issues here and cultural change is needed to address what it considers to be misogyny at the heart of policing, the courts, the criminal justice system. the government has said the policing bill which is going through parliament now, by coincidence, will give tougher sentences and extra police powers which means there will be more justice to victims. there are concerns about the impact that will have on the level of protests in future. at the heart of this, there are big questions raised by sarah everard's death but he also had to bearin everard's death but he also had to bear in mind herfamily are still grieving and the fact there is a murder investigation is still going on. �* ., murder investigation is still going on_ a ,, ., 4' murder investigation is still going free school meals should be extended in england over the summer holiday this year — that's according to the new children's commissioner dame rachel de souza. speaking to the bbc, she said children have paid a high price during the pandemic and now is the time to rethink the support they need. our education editor branwenjeffreys reports. playing with friends at school. children have missed so much this year, so a huge survey of children is planned in england, to understand their experiences. the children's commissioner argues for children in government. the new woman in the job says families still need support. she told me free school meals should stay through the summer. i absolutely want to see free school meals extended, and i'm very concerned about suggestions of dropping universal credit. if universal credit was dropped down again, i'd like to see services provided in that case but i'd rather it wasn't dropped. do you think they were too slow to listen to marcus rashford? yes. these six formers said the pandemic had affected all their lives. seeing people, as a kind of recreational activity, kind of went down to nothing. and i think the impact that has on someone's mind, especially in this period of your life, when you're a teenager... this is the time when most of your memories are made. there needs to be change to helping people who have been affected, notjust by the pandemic but by years long inequalities. the last year has made visible pressures on children's lives that were already there. the children who got a quiet place to study and those that don't — families under pressure struggling to put food on the table. and the pressures on young people's mental health. the government said there is more support in schools, for mental health and catching up, as well as £220 million going to local councils — cash for holiday activities and food for families who need help this year. branwen jeffreys, bbc news. nicola sturgeon is to reveal her latest plan to ease lockdown restrictions in scotland later. it's thought the first minister will give more detail on when shops and hospitality will be able to open. she's previously said her government will be led by "data, not dates". and in northern ireland, ministers will also meet to review lockdown restrictions — they're expected to provide further clarity on when all school children will return to classes. the sister of the north korean leader kim jong—un has warned the us not to "cause a stink" if it "wants to sleep in peace" for the next four years. kim yo—jong's comments come as senior members ofjoe biden's administration are due to arrive in seoulfor talks. she's also criticised the us and south korea for conducting joint military exercises. in the last few minutes, greggs have announced their results. nina is here with more. iimagine you i imagine you havejust i imagine you have just washed i imagine you havejust washed in with some paper in your hand. i had to print it all out.— to print it all out. losses last ear for to print it all out. losses last year for greggs _ to print it all out. losses last year for greggs but - to print it all out. losses last year for greggs but not - to print it all out. losses last year for greggs but not as i year for greggs but not as catastrophic as they were concerned about. greggs is big. 23,000 staff across 2,000 branches. and pre—pandemic the pasty masters were on top form; turning over 1.2 billion in 2019. that's £20 for every person. that's a lot of sausage rolls. today's results show... annual losses of £13.7 million, compared to 108 million in profit the year before. this is the first time they have announced losses since they were listed back in 1984. they did announce 820 job losses at the end of last year. plans announced injanuary, more than 100 new shops, out of town, with lower rents, accessible by car and tapping in to the work from home market, which they believe will stick. some analysts predicting that greggs could come out of this stronger than ever. a value product, close to home, in spots with lower rents, is a model which could fare well if there is less disposable income around. so overall, big losses as expected. but certainly a sense that recovery and growth is around the corner. shall we find out what is happening with the weather? good morning stop compared with the weather watcher �*s shot i showed you half an hour ago, this one not quite as optimistic. grey skies in wigan. a similar story for many of us. it is getting better kind of day. we swap the grey skies for blue ones later. most of us will be sunny this afternoon. lighter patchy rain in the south and east. this band of heavy rain is working its way across northern england and north and west wales. the rain will trundle its way across england and wales. blue skies into the afternoon in northern ireland, midlands as well. a bit of a blustery day, not as windy as we have been used to of late. even with the breeze, when the sunshine comes out, you will feel quite warm. temperatures peaking in wales and the south and makes around 16 celsius, well above where we should be for the time of year. this afternoon and this evening we will hold onto a lot of cloud. there could be that the spots of light rain and drizzle here and there. maybe these glimpses of late sunshine before that dips below the horizon. tonight, when we have lost the sun, temperatures will drop quite quickly. thrust around to take us into tomorrow morning. —— thrust around. plenty of sunshine around on wednesday. a bit of cloud on thursday and friday. turning colder in the south stop the full forecast around 8:15am. the prime minister has defended the crime and policing bill, describing it as a "sensible package of measures" ahead of a vote in parliament due this evening. the legislation makes various changes to the crime and justice system, but labour says it won't be supporting it because it's been "poorly thought out." joining us now is the party's shadow minister for domestic violence and safeguarding, jess phillips. good morning. nice to speak to you on the programme this morning stop i am sure many of our viewers will have seen your ten point plan published in one of the newspapers this morning to keep women safe. that was published before the government announcement last night for the safer streets fund, which has gone up from £20 million to £45 million is that an investment you welcome? i million is that an investment you welcome? . ., ., , , welcome? i welcome any

violence, it is not something that is ever particularly asked for by experts and victims in these circumstances. currently there are not the laws that prosecute people who street her as. i'm a bit disappointed with what came out of the prime minister's meeting yesterday because it does not seem to speak to any of the concerns from the sector, whether it is rape crisis in england and wales, i have not had anyone asking for extra cctv or undercover police officers in bars. ~ , , ., ~ or undercover police officers in bars. ~ , , ., ,, ., bars. we were speaking to kit malthouse. — bars. we

legislation, saying the policing bill does bring in tougher sentencing for serious violent and sexual offences. is that something you recognise? do you take issue with that? i you recognise? do you

absolutely take issue with what kit malthouse is - with that? i absolutely take issue with what kit malthouse is saying i with what kit malthouse is saying will help women be safer, it does nothing to prevent crime. they are increasing the amount of time that somebody who is already committed will stay in prison before we let them out. in cases of rape, they say, it will affect that as well. the data they are using is around life sentences for rape. in all my years of experience of rape cases, and i have sat with thousands of victims over the years, i have never known anyone get a life sentence. it is not really that helpful. the trouble with this bill, the government is trying to crowbar in issues about violence against women and girls. for me it is an abuse is charter. it does more to silence women who protest against a lack of safety than to protect people. there is nothing about domestic abuse or sexual violence. there is nothing about street harassment was that they have had to get together in a meeting last night and throw together a plan about cctv and police officers and skinnyjeans in bars. i think they have been caught on the hop and they should slow this legislation down, stop talking about statues and start listening about how to keep the streets safe. what kit malthouse said yesterday, to be honest, he is not speaking from experience like i am. haifa honest, he is not speaking from experience like i am. how would you le . islate experience like i am. how would you legislate differently? _ experience like i am. how would you legislate

differently. the labour party will lay lots of amendments to this law at committee. things like street harassment. an undercover police officer might notice somebody following me, harassing me on the street. there is no law to charge someone with. i would have an entire review on how we prosecute rape. the labour party yesterday released a plan exactly to focus on increasing prosecutions because for most rape victims, the reality is increasing the amount of time somebody who is convicted stays in prison is not very helpful. the reality is that what we need is more people to be going to prison and for the police to be charging more cases of rape. 58,000 cases of child sexual abuse came forward, 3000 convictions. 55,000 rapes reported last year. less than 2000 convictions. this is leaving 53,000 potential rapists on our streets. i would legislate to change that, not statues are making sure ministers can drive ministerial powers in through a protest. i care much more about violence against women and girls than whether i can get in and out of westminster or someone put a loud—hailer in my face. can out of westminster or someone put a loud-hailer in my face.— loud-hailer in my

priti patel was saying there had been 78,000 new responses in a survey against violent —— is about violence against women. if something good is to come from this awful circumstance is it awareness of what women go through? absolutely. everybody in the country is standing shoulder to shoulder with sarah's parents, especially over the weekend on mother's day. i don't think anybody was not thinking about them. any woman who has been murdered, where i have worked with our families and murdered, where i have worked with ourfamilies and i murdered, where i have worked with our families and i worked

that more than 40,000 people across the uk should have started cancer treatment last year, but didn't because of the pandemic. now 47 leading charities have come together to tell radio one's newsbeat that the backlog needs to be cleared quickly — or the cancer survival rate could fall for the first time in decades. the department of health and social care says the treatment of cancer remains a "top priority," as christian hewgill reports. george is 20, and a musical theatre students. passionate about the west end and dance — in particular ballet — he loves nothing more than being on stage. but in recent years, he's had to face being told his thought to be the youngest person in the uk ever to be diagnosed with oesophogal cancer. like many, he saw his treatment options limited by the pandemic. we were considering surgery at one point because i was doing so well because of the pandemic. they didn't want to operate and put me in intensive care or anything like that and put me at higher risk of catching covid or getting extremely ill from it. so it's upsetting that something that is completely out of your control, and that affected the whole world, just affected you that slight bit and you do have that, well, what if the wasn't around? how seriously have cancer patients like yourself been affected by this pandemic? when you have cancer, especially in my situation, where sort of everything is unknown and they don't have a set treatment plan, they don't know how long i'll be on treatment for or need treatment for, having lots of options is your positive thing. suddenly when one gets taken away, it's quite worrying, yeah. the warning from the 47 cancer charities as it could take months, if not years, to clear what they're calling a cancer backlog. that's helping people like george, who had treatment options affected or limited by the pandemic but also reaching out to potentially thousands of people who might be living with cancer without even realising because it's not even been diagnosed yet. during covid, we've seen many examples where people have had their treatments, their screening, their tests paused, delayed, or disrupted. it's a terribly serious problem because we could have the prospect of cancer survival reducing for the first time in decades here in the uk. you're calling on the government to do more. what specifically do you want to see dan about this? we want to see the backlog of 41,000 people found and treated because we know if you diagnose cancer late, you have a lower chance of survival. even a short delay to a cancer diagnosis can be fatal. molly's now in remission but felt ill a couple of weeks after giving birth to matilda. her symptoms were similar to covid, meaning she was not diagnosed until several

curtailed in his travels. like all of us. but first of all we wanted to show some of the amazing images you've captured from your windows over the last year. debra sent us this photo of a "happily posing little robin." look at the colours on this photo from john's garden. this is jo's "cheeky squirrel on the bird feeder." steven spotted this tiny hedgehog in his garden. and alan has taken this corker of a photo — the local friendly pigeon photo bombing his daughter freya's birthday celebrations. i have talked it up now. squirrels are quite clever with bird feeders. they have bent the metal so it does not drop down and they can eat themselves. my squirrel story wasn't that bad, was it? good morning, i'm asad ahmad. plain clothes police officers are to patrol bars and nightclubs, in an effort to protect women from predatory offenders. officers will look at actively identifying those acting suspiciously in the night time economy when it restarts, possibly within weeks. better lighting and more cctv has also been promised by the taskforce chaired by the prime minister. it follows the murder of sarah everard who went missing in south london two weeks ago. and in connection to that case, a metropolitan police officer involved in the search for ms everard, has been removed from duties for allegedly sharing an "inappropriate graphic". scotland yard said the image was shared on social media, and was reported by a number of officers who were concerned by its content. the pc involved will still work in what's called a non—public facing role. the constable has been referred to the police watchdog. the contents of the graphic has not been disclosed. the homeless charity shelter says around 20% of adult londoners are now more worried about becoming homeless, due to the coronavirus pandemic. following a survey, the charity estimates that more than 10% of adults have — in the past year — cut back on food or skipped meals to pay their rent or mortgage. the government says households have been at the heart of decision—making throughout the pandemic. before the travel, a reminder that the advice from the government is still to stay home unless yourjourney is essential and you are allowed to make it. if you are this is what the tube board looks like. the hammersmith & city line has minor delays due to train cancellations. on the roads, it's busier than usual on the a13 in to town. the exit slip at lodge avenue is closed by the police, adding to the usual delays. and in west london, at paddington: lancaster terrace is closed for repairs to a burst water main. now the weather with kate kinsella. good morning. it's a rather grey, cloudy start this morning. we've got some outbreaks of rain as well, and it looks like it's going to stay largely cloudy throughout. now, the wind is light first thing. it will strengthen into the afternoon. high pressure still in charge, but a couple of fronts still moving through, a warm front, followed by a cold front. so that's what's bringing these outbreaks of rain. some dry spells between them. through the afternoon, gradually those fronts sinking south. so the cloud could potentially clear the further north you are. temperatures are feeling very mild despite that strengthening wind. we're looking at a maximum of 14 celsius this afternoon. overnight tonight, some clear spells. chilly in one or two spots. cloud feeding into the east. it is thick enough to produce the odd spot of rain, but nothing more significant. the minimum temperature between three and five celsius. some bright spells at first tomorrow, but again, the cloud will start to feed in from the east. thick enough to produce the odd spot of rain through tomorrow. it gets a little bit chilly on thursday. we pick up a north easterly breeze. i'm back with the latest from the bbc london newsroom in an hour. hello, this is breakfast with louise minchin and dan walker. the world health organization has urged countries not to pause covid vaccinations, after several major eu member states suspended their rollouts of the oxford—astrazeneca jab. the who says the vaccine is safe and there's no evidence that it causes blood clots. its vaccine safety experts will meet later to discuss the issue. downing street has announced a series of measures aimed at improving safety in england for women and girls in the wake of the death of sarah everard. it's after hundreds of people took part in another vigil for the 33—year—old in london last night, despite the home secretary warning against such gatherings. a number of arrests were made. borisjohnson will outline the uk's new defence strategy later, as the government sets out its new post—brexit foreign policy. there'll be a new focus on trade and security links with countries like india, japan and australia, and an increase in the uk's stockpile of nuclear warheads. labour says the strategy will leave the uk "woefully unprepared". let's go back to our main

the eu's biggest nationsjoin the list of countries suspending use of the oxford—astrazeneca vaccine. but the jab is safe according to the world health organisation and british experts. the message for now is the vaccine is safe and effective. it has saved thousands and thousands of elderly and vulnerable people's lives. hundreds more gather to remember sarah everard as downing street unveils new measures to protect women. exactly a year ago today, the curtain came down on theatres like this one, the apollo in london and others across the country, leaving empty chairs at empty stages. we'll find out the effects it has had on those on and backstage and how they are preparing to reopen. greggs announce big losses for 2020, but stick with expansion plans. the pasty masters will accelerate click and collect, deliveries, and moves to out of town sites. what does their strategy tell us about how eating habits are changing? it was the last major sporting event in the uk to be filled with fans, and now a year on, the cheltenham festival will feel very different, with no crowd, and no famous roar. it may be still grey and damp fulsome of you at the moment. stick with it. sunny skies on the way for just about all. the details on breakfast. it's tuesday, the 16th of march. our top story. the world health organization has urged countries not to pause covid vaccinations, after several major eu member states suspended their rollouts of the oxford—astrazeneca jab. the who says the vaccine is safe and there's no evidence that it causes blood clots. its vaccine safety experts will meet later to discuss the issue, as jim reed reports. 11 million people in the uk have already been given their first dose of the astrazeneca vaccine without any serious side effects emerging. but a growing number of other countries have now suspended its use after a small number of cases of blood clotting were recorded. france, germany, italy and spain have temporarily stopped using the vaccine as a precautionary measure, days after norway said three health care workers had needed hospital treatment. several other european countries, including austria, has stopped using certain batches of the drug. medical regulators in both the uk and the eu have said there is no evidence the clots were the result of being given the vaccine itself. manufacturer astrazeneca said the number of cases of blood clotting so far is no higher than doctors would expect to see in the general population in normal times. and the government's scientific advisers say there is no reason to pause the rollout in this country. the message for now is this vaccine is safe and effective. it's saved thousands and thousands of elderly and vulnerable people's lives and we're determined to press on with it unless we see a major safety signal to suggest otherwise — in which case we will be open and transparent with the public. later today, the safety committee of the eu drugs agency will meet to review all the cases that have come to light so far. if it gives the green light, then other countries are likely to resume their vaccination programmes quickly. in the uk, the message from scientists is to take any coronavirus jab if offered, as all the data so far show the risks of catching covid far outweigh the risks of a side effect from any vaccine. jim reed, bbc news. we'rejoined now by our chief political correspondent adam fleming. adam, the foreign secretary dominic raab�*s mounted a strong defence of the vaccine this morning? good morning. government ministers and officials are _ good morning.

to suffer any dangerous side effects and if you have an appointment, you should still go for it. here is what dominic raab said earlier. it is dominic raab said earlier. it is safe. it dominic raab

measures aimed at improving safety in england for women and girls in the wake of the death of sarah everard. it's after hundreds of people took part in another vigilfor the 33—year old in london last night. dan johnson reports. chanting this reaction, the strength of feeling, isn't just about sarah everard's death, but the wider questions that have been raised about women's safety and the response of the police. yesterday, officers kept a low profile and a mostly hands—off approach, at the start of this gathering in parliament square. it went ahead despite the home secretary urging people to stick to covid regulations, and in defiance of the government's new policing bill, part of which will limit future protests. last night, the home office said it was already increasing the amount spent making our streets safer, from £20 million to £16 million. this investment will go on very practical measures like increased and better lighting, more cctv, to try to give people that confidence that we really, really want to instil after last week's terribly, terribly sad events. last night's vigil moved to westminster bridge, downing street and the headquarters of london's metropolitan police. the organisation, reclaim these streets, says it has lost faith in the leadership of the force. officers did step in, telling people to keep moving and head home, orface fines for breaching lockdown rules. at the centre of all this, we cannot forget an innocent young woman, who was just walking home. sarah everard's death has already shaken this country, making us question how society works and whether it fairly protects everyone. danjohnson, bbc news, central london. danjohnson is at new scotland yard this morning. good to talk to you. the police forces still under a lot of pressure today.

available for its safer streets found. £25 million which will be available for councils to bid for an spend on projects to make their areas safer. that could mean more late night patrols are more plain clothes officers policing and side bars and nightclubs when they are able to reopen. labour is saying, this is only a limited amount of money which does not go very far towards covering for the cuts there had been to local services over the last decade. groups like protect the streets have been saying that funding is welcome but there are deeper, cultural issues here that need to be addressed but they think there is misogyny at the heart of policing, the courts and a criminaljustice system. the government says its policing bill will strengthen police powers and the sentencing powers of the courts. it will give more justice for victims. there have been concerns about the potential impact some elements of that bill could have on rights to protest in the future. there are some major issues are raised by this case. at the heart of it is sarah everard's family, who are grieving. there is also a murder investigation is still ongoing. also a murder investigation is still

since 1984. last year it made a profit of £108 million. greggs says it still plans to open a hundred new shops this year, despite announcing 820 job losses at the end of last year. let's take a look at this remarkable footage of a pod of orcas swimming off the coast of shetland. the pictures were filmed by photographer gary buchan, who was able to follow them for 45 minutes as they played with each other. male orcas can grow to 8 metres in length, and can weigh up to 6 tons. despite that weight they can travel at speeds of up to 30 miles per hour. amazing pictures. very beautiful. it's 08:10am. here's matt with a look at this morning's weather. not quite as beautiful but it will improve. look what is heading our way! this is the view from the west of scotland. the sun shines out. it does look chilly. blustery for many of us this morning. on the radar chart, this is where the rain is falling at the moment. in shetland, northern england and western wales, working its way south and east but evenif working its way south and east but even if there are dry spells and if he breaks in the cloud in the south and east, it will cloud over again with patchy rain and drizzle. the breeze will remain a feature. it will be blowing in much sunnier skies. not much clout in the chart. temperatures are going to respond accordingly. quite a mild date for this stage in march. temperatures widely into double figures. if not, the low teens. a few spots could get higher than that. 16 possible. still holding on to plenty of clout in the southernmost counties of england. foremost, we finished the day with sunshine. tonight, the temperature is quickly dropping under clear skies will do quite a chilly night in store. powered in the north of scotland and far south east. there could be fog in the morning. these are the temperatures to start your day. chilly to begin with. plenty of sunshine around on wednesday. more cloud on thursday and friday but most places staying predominantly dry. more than 20 million of us across the uk have now rolled up our sleeves for the first dose of the covid vaccine. but, despite infection rates and hospital admissions falling, an increasing number of our neighbouring countries in europe have paused their rollouts of the oxford—astrazeneca jab — going against advice from the world health organization. fergus walsh is our medical editor, and hejoins us now. fergus cannot always a pleasure to talk to you. thank you for being with us this morning. we havejust spoken to foreign secretary dominic raab. the government is coming out quite strongly in defence of the astrazeneca vaccine. if someone is watching this morning and is concerned, maybe they are in for their jab today, concerned, maybe they are in for theirjab today, what is the advice around this at the moment? the advice is. _ around this at the moment? the advice is. go _ around this at the moment? the advice is, go and _ around this at the moment? tue: advice is, go and have yourjab. the risks from covid are so much greater than any potential side effects. all vaccines or medicines have side effects. the issue in europe is the issue about clots and specifically these thromboembolic events, blood clots that form and then can move around the body blocking arteries. the analysis has shown there have been fewer than 110 of these among 70 million people who have received the jab. that is significantly lower than you would get in the general population. to put it another way, you are more likely to be protected from a clot if you have the jab than if you have not. it begs the question why so many european union countries have decided to pause. i think the reason for that is, and they have history and form on this with the astrazeneca jab, they have taken this incredibly cautious approach, which in normal circumstances is fine but in the midst of a pandemic seems utterly baffling. midst of a pandemic seems utterly bafflinr. . , , ., ,

use it in older people because there was not evidence it worked. they have had to reverse those decisions. then you get angela merkel saying, astrazeneca, there seems to be an acceptance problem. very little surprise for that given that president macron at one point called it quasi ineffective in older people. european countries have not help themselves. at the same time they have been bickering with astrazeneca, saying they are not supplying enough doses. this is really serious. in the midst of a pandemic, in paris for example, they have been shipping intensive care patients out of hospitals to other parts of the country because they are so full. in the midst of rising levels of cases and the threat from covid and many of these countries, to stop immunisation with one of the key vaccines at this point could potentially cost lives. the clear advice from the world health organization, european medicines agency and the regulator here is the benefits of the astrazeneca vaccine, which i had myself on sunday, far outweigh any side—effects. t will]! outweigh any side-effects. i will come to you _ outweigh any side-effects. i will come to you about _ outweigh any side-effects. i will

about that in a moment. you mentioned those two bodies, the who and the european medicines agency. we understand they will meet later today to further look at it. both of them have made it quite clear from their perspective it is safe. what sort of uptake a it a case of providing clarity? thea;r safe. what sort of uptake a it a case of providing clarity? they will be analysing _ case of providing clarity? they will be analysing individual _ case of providing clarity? they will be analysing individual case i be analysing individual case reports. what started it was the death of a woman in austria. they will be analysing those to see whether there could be some very, very rare side effect and rare form of blood clot that this could trigger. all the evidence so far suggests that is not the case. i think it is highly likely that after a temporary pause, the vaccination programmes will be restarted. you have to remember, the astrazeneca vaccine is the workhorse for one... one of the workhorse vaccines for the world. astrazeneca is not making any profit out of it and is scheduled to deliver something like 2 billion doses around the world this year alone. it is really important that public confidence worldwide is maintained in this jab. can i ask a question which is coming from a few viewers, notjust today but over the last few days in the weeks we have been talking about a vaccine? research may be on going into the long—term effects of vaccines. how much of that is going on at the moment? tt is vaccines. how much of that is going on at the moment?— on at the moment? it

onjust 50,000 worldwide, probably over that on just astrazeneca trials alone, they are all followed up for at least a year. then we have this post—market surveillance, a yellow card scheme whereby anybody who gets the jab and has any side effects can report those. they are followed up continually. there is constant monitoring. i have been looking through what they call the yellow card data, released by the medicines regulator here, and the level of side effects from clots for the astrazeneca vaccine is no higher than for the pfizer vaccine. this is all very surprising. he than for the

known some of the scientists for decades and their commitment to safety is second to none. they produced this vaccine in record time but without cutting any corners on safety. i would encourage people to follow the medical advice, which is, if you have got your appointment for yourjab, which is, if you have got your appointment foryourjab, go which is, if you have got your appointment for yourjab, go and appointment for your jab, go and have appointment for yourjab, go and have yourjab. i had a slightly sore arm yesterday but it is now. you know, no obvious side—effects as far as i am concerned. you can get back to your rigorous regime of 1000 bicep curls! i am hoping when i had the jab i can go undercover, unlike him! the events surrounding the death of sarah everard and the vigil in her memory have prompted conversations about how women feel about their safety. ellie gould was killed in 2019. brea kfast�*s tim muffett has been speaking to her friends about their loss, their lives, and how they believe education at a young age is key to driving change. ellie was lovely, she was great. i met her when i went to sixth form, the first day of school. eddie gould was murdered by her former boyfriend in 2019. for herfriend harriet, recent events have been hard to bear. the past few days have been really challenging. they definitely bring back a lot of memories and emotions from when we lost ellie. what kind of conversations have you been having with your friends? we've had lots of conversations about it. i think they differ between the people, really. talking to my male friends, they want to learn about what i have to say about it, or they want to learn about my experiences and what i go through day to day because they can't understand it. they don't go through it themselves. hearing that it happened to someone else is so... it's so sad, and i hope people can step back and think, "it could be me, it could be my mum, it could be my sister, it could be anyone." these conversations are so important. following the death of sarah everard, they're the sort of conversations that are taking place amongst friends and within families across the country. for ellie's friends, those conversations have been especially poignant and, at times, impassioned. we're still in a situation where women are dying weekly because of men. i think there comes a time where you need to look at the source of the problem and men need to change. it has obviously been devastating seeing the family having to go through something very similar to what we went through. for some, this is a chance to reflect on other types of unacceptable behaviour by some men towards women. a lot of the time, men like to get defensive when women are expressing their fears and thoughts on men. for others, there is a risk that men who have done nothing wrong are also being blamed. we understand it is not all men. when we say all men, it is because we don't have time to pick and choose what man is going to do something to us when we are walking down the street. we don't have time to think, "is this a good person or is it a bad person? am i going to get assaulted or am i not?" we just react in that situation. we understand it's not all men but it's too many men for us to be able to differentiate. it is not uncomfortable, not for me at least _ it is not uncomfortable, not for me at least to — it is not uncomfortable, not for me at least to talk— it is not uncomfortable, not for me at least to talk about. _ because, at the end of the day, from what we've seen, - men are the ones causing this issue a large proportion of the time. i and so, i think, we do need to address it at the source. | they should be accountable for actions. wejust they should be accountable for actions. we just want men to be they should be accountable for actions. wejust want men to be more aware. thankfully, very few people will ever experience the pain this group of friends have gone through. many of us are having similar conversations. tim muffett, bbc news. we are going to pick up some of the thoughts brought up in that report. as well as prompting discussions about how women are protected by the law, questions have also been raised around how issues surrounding women's safety are taught in schools. we'rejoined now byjenny barksfield from the pshe association and drjane krishnadas, who's a senior law lecturer at keele university. morning to you. thank you for joining us. i'm not sure how much of that report you are able to hear. it was interesting hearing those young people talking about their conversations they are having. i know you are dealing with this, particularly in schools. what is your priority? what are you trying to teach young people in schools? it is important to say this starts from the beginning. obviously, in the wake of a terrible event like this, it is important schools provide pastoral support to talk about what happened. np hse education, where relationships education is compulsory, we start from primary actually. it is about laying foundations are learning about concepts like healthy and respectful relationships and recognising when a relationships and recognising when a relationship is not healthy or respectful and consent. at primary we lay the foundations by teaching things like asking permission before you take a toy and your rights do not give permission for something that makes you feel uncomfortable. that builds up year on year. in secondary, we are developing learning about gender stereotyping and how that can lead to nonconsensual behaviours. and more complex understanding of the concept of consent, of recognising unhealthy relationship behaviours and managing those, and how to seek help. it is important this is not about... it is not about putting on a one—off lesson on how to walk home safely. obviously, we would teach some personal safety strategies but it is certainly not about victim blaming, it is not about teaching young people to keep themselves safe, it is about educating all young people to be respectful of relationships, to be respectful of relationships, to recognise kind of legal and moral responsibility on the person seeking consent, not the person whose consent, not the person whose consent is being sought. as i say, that begins from the beginning of primary school and builds up bit by bit as students get older. obviously, the death of sarah everard has brought this into quite sharp focus in parliament is discussing these issues at the moment with the latest crime and policing bill. iwonder moment with the latest crime and policing bill. i wonder how much of theissue policing bill. i wonder how much of the issue is, maybe from women in particular, a lack of trust and the justice item at the moment. absolutely. at the moment, it is as if the prime minister has had a light bulb moment when trying to invest in street lights. clearly it is much more deep. we have had a lasting commitment since 1986 when we signed up to actually implement rights for women in our own legislation. it is only since recently we have had the domestic abuse bill going through, which is taking considerable time. now we have this new policing act. on the one hand it proposes to provide more technical support for criminal prosecutions but in actual fact, what we find is the criminaljustice itself is a structure which makes it difficult to listen to the subjective experience of women and for women to give evidence in those circumstances. we for women to give evidence in those circumstances-_ circumstances. we talked, specifically _ circumstances. we talked, specifically dominic - circumstances. we talked, specifically dominic raab i circumstances. we talked, i

think at the moment, the survivor, the victim survivor is a witness in proceedings. what we find is the way the structure of the criminal justice process goes, we have to prove evidence beyond reasonable doubt as if it were any other offence. in actualfact, giving evidence in proceedings with regard to rape, we have got to remember the impact of the rape on the victim. memory loss, getting confused, not knowing exactly what happened when. there are many concerns which make it extremely difficult for a witness to be able to prove under the standard conditions of reasonable doubt, which is why sexual violence services like the independent sexual advisor, is critical in being able to support women going through the process. to support women going through the rocess. , , to support

education as well. a lot of women are sharing their personal stories and fears. one quote, which i am sure many women will have seen doing the rounds, protect your daughters can educate your sons. protect your daughters can educate yoursons. how protect your daughters can educate your sons. how much for the future and success of this rest on education in the school setting but at home as well? irate education in the school setting but at home as well?— education in the school setting but at home as well? we always say good p hse education _ at home as well? we always say good p hse education is _ at home as well? we always say good p hse education is a _ at home as well? we always say good p hse education is a partnership - p hse education is a partnership with parents. parents are on the whole very supportive. in school, the onus of the school is on communication with parents and how it is taught and encouraging parents to pick up on the messages and reinforce them at home. children spend more of their lives at home than they do in school. we do what we can in school. it works most effectively when parents are reinforcing those messages at home and their conversations. not in a way that... it is not about scaring young people and making young women in particular to scared to go out. it is about educating from early childhood, as i say, in respectful relationships and consent and recognising unhealthy relationship behaviours. absolutely, teaching about seeking consent rather than keeping yourself safe from someone. that's where our focus needs to be. thank you. just one more point from you. with regard, for example, street harassment, would there be laws that might be able to help with that and are they necessary? i laws that might be able to help with that and are they necessary?- that and are they necessary? i think there could — that and are they necessary? i think there could be _ that and are they necessary? i think there could be laws _ that and

there could be laws in relation to street harassment. we need to go back to the fact that 90% of rapes are taking place by somebody you know. i think the real concern in all of this and listening tojenny�*s points is a difficulty in sexual violence is around silence. the key quote about, i used silent or are you being silenced? the fact that women have not been able to express opinions in the public space and the recent bill that has taken place, is a moment where women's voices from women broadly are being silenced. this is precisely, when we look at women's engagement in the public sphere, these are the underlying difficulties from primary school into civil society.— into civil society. interesting to have this discussion _ into civil society. interesting to have this discussion

patrol in bars and nightclubs to protect women from what a called predatory offenders. officers will look at identifing those acting suspiciously when the night time economy restarts — possibly within weeks. extra cash for improved street lighting and more cctv has also been promised by the task force chaired by the prime minister. it follows the murder of sarah everard, who went missing in south london two weeks ago. and in connection to that case, a metropolitan police officer involved in the search for ms everard has been removed from duties for allegedly sharing an inappropriate graphic. scotland yard said the image was shared on social media, and was reported by a number of officers who were concerned by its content. the pc involved will still work in what's called a non—public facing role, but has been referred to the police watchdog. the contents of the graphic have not been disclosed. the homeless charity shelter says around 20% of adult londoners are now more worried about becoming homeless, due to the coronavirus pandemic. following a survey, the charity estimates that more than 10% of adults have — in the past year — cut back on food or skipped meals to pay their rent or mortgage. the government says households have been at the heart of decision—making — throughout the pandemic. before the travel, a reminder that the advice from the government is still to stay home unless yourjourney is essential and you are allowed to make it. if you are, this is what the tube board looks like. the hammersmith & city line has minor delays due to train cancellations. on the roads, there are severe delays on the north circular, with queues back to hanger lane. it's due to a burst water main at chiswick. in east london, busier than usual on the a13 in to town — the exit slip at lodge avenue is closed by the police adding to the usual delays. now the weather with kate kinsella. good morning. it's a rather grey, cloudy start this morning. we've got some outbreaks of rain as well, and it looks like it's going to stay largely cloudy throughout. now, the wind is light first thing. it will strengthen into the afternoon. high pressure still in charge, but a couple of fronts still moving through, a warm front, followed by a cold front. so that's what's bringing these outbreaks of rain. some dry spells between them. through the afternoon, gradually those fronts sinking south. so the cloud could potentially clear the further north you are. temperatures are feeling very mild despite that strengthening wind. we're looking at a maximum of 1a celsius this afternoon. overnight tonight, some clear spells. chilly in one or two spots. cloud feeding into the east. it is thick enough to produce the odd spot of rain, but nothing more significant. the minimum temperature between three and five celsius. some bright spells at first tomorrow, but again, the cloud will start to feed in from the east. thick enough to produce the odd spot of rain through tomorrow. it gets a little bit chilly on thursday. we pick up a north easterly breeze. i'm back with the latest from the bbc london newsroom in half an hour. hello, this is breakfast with louise minchin and dan walker. morning live is on bbc one at 9.15. let's find out what's on today's programme with kym and gethin. coming up on morning live today, as the prime minister vows to make sure women feel heard when they raise concerns about their safety, we find out what you think must be done to make britain's streets feel safer. and dr punam tells us why for the one in

clever cash tips that will boost your bank account and could help you save more money. also coming up, 26 million of us have chosen to take a dna test, but what can they actually tell us? we discover how one of the uk's leading geneticists is teaming up with journalist stacey dooley to unlock some of the mysteries hidden in our dna. and stacey's partner kevin clifton is in the studio this morning. a year after theatres closed their curtains due to covid, the former strictly pro is returning to the stage for a unique star—studded variety show. he'll also be dusting off his dancing shoes to help us learn the final of the red nose day treat people with kindness challenge. at home protecting mummy. but for alfie, arthur and leo, it's complicated. the government is expected to end shielding at the end of march. but will that be enough to give parents the confidence to send their vulnerable children back into class? i think i'd feel a bit more relieved once the vaccine comes out for the children. the first uk study to assess the safety of a covid vaccine for kids only started two weeks ago. it's been a struggle for so many, but there's been joy too. one of the joys of this, erm, this

it was the last major sporting event in the uk to be filled with fans. and now, a year on, the cheltenham festival will feel very different with no crowd, and no famous roar. and it may be a bit gloomy and damp as he cast open the curtains this morning. we will swap grey skies were blue ones as we go through the day. the full forecast here on breakfast. it's tuesday, the 16th march. our top story... the world health organization has urged countries not to pause covid vaccinations, after several major eu member states suspended their rollouts of the oxford—astrazeneca jab. the who says the vaccine is safe and there's no evidence that it causes blood clots. that is the world health organization of course. its vaccine safety experts will meet later to discuss the issue, as jim reed reports. 11 million people in the uk have already been given their first dose of the astrazeneca vaccine without any serious side effects emerging. but a growing number of other countries have now suspended its use after a small number of cases of blood clotting were recorded. france, germany, italy and spain have temporarily stopped using the vaccine as a precautionary measure, days after norway said three health care workers had needed hospital treatment. several other european countries, including austria, has stopped using certain batches of the drug. medical regulators in both the uk and the eu have said there is no evidence the clots were the result of being given the vaccine itself. manufacturer astrazeneca said the number of cases of blood clotting so far is no higher than doctors would expect to see in the general population in normal times. and the government's scientific advisers say there is no reason to pause the rollout in this country. the message for now is this vaccine is safe and effective. it's saved thousands and thousands of elderly and vulnerable people's lives and we're determined to press on with it unless we see a major safety signal to suggest otherwise — in which case we will be open and transparent with the public. later today, the safety committee of the eu drugs agency will meet to review all the cases that have come to light so far. if it gives the green light, then other countries are likely to resume their vaccination programmes quickly. in the uk, the message from scientists is to take any coronavirus jab if offered, as all the data so far show the risks of catching covid far outweigh the risks of a side effect from any vaccine. jim reed, bbc news. downing street has announced a series of measures aimed at improving safety in england for women and girls in the wake of the death of sarah everard. it's after hundreds of people took part in another vigil for the 33—year—old in london last night. dan johnson reports. chanting this reaction, the strength of feeling, isn't just about sarah everard's death, but the wider questions that have been raised about women's safety and the response of the police. yesterday, officers kept a low profile and a mostly hands—off approach, at the start of this gathering in parliament square. it went ahead despite the home secretary urging people to stick to covid regulations, and in defiance of the government's new policing bill, part of which will limit future protests. last night, the home office said it was already increasing the amount spent making our streets safer, from £20 million to £16 million. this investment will go on very practical measures like increased and better lighting, more cctv, to try to give people that confidence that we really, really want to instil after last week's terribly, terribly sad events. last night's vigil moved to westminster bridge, downing street and the headquarters of london's metropolitan police. the organisation, reclaim the streets, says it has lost faith in the leadership of the force. officers did step in, telling people to keep moving and head home, orface fines for breaching lockdown rules. at the centre of all this, we cannot forget an innocent young woman, who was just walking home. sarah everard's death has already shaken this country, making us question how society works and whether it fairly protects everyone. danjohnson, bbc news, central london. danjohnson is at new scotland yard this morning. good morning to you. a little quieter there this morning. the debate continues today, doesn't it? absolutely, yes. the metropolitan police has been the focus of further protests last night. the force is under pressure. the government has announced extra money to try to make the streets safer. that fund is for councils to bid for, it could be used to provide extra patrols late at night was that there is suggestion some pilot projects could be extended which could see plain clothes officers policing in bars and nightclubs when they are able to reopen. labour has said that investment doesn't go anywhere near far enough, not even replacing the cuts made to local services over the last few years. the organisation, reclaim the streets has welcomed the funding but says there are deeper issues which need to be addressed. misogyny is baked into the issue, the police, the courts, the criminal justice system. the government says its bill will extend sentences, will give the police more powers and bring morejustice give the police more powers and bring more justice for give the police more powers and bring morejustice for victims. there are concerns about the impact that could have on the right to protest in future. this case has raised some serious questions, some big issues which will take time to be understood and addressed. at the heart of this there is a family, loved ones that are still grieving and sarah everard's murder investigation is still going on as well. . ~ , ., investigation is still going on as well. . ~' ~ , , . ~' investigation is still going on as well. . ~ ,, ., well. thank you. we will speak to ou later well. thank you. we will speak to you later this _ well. thank you. we will speak to you later this morning. _ free school meals should be extended in england over the summer holiday this year — that's according to the new children's commissioner dame rachel de souza. speaking to the bbc, she said children have paid a high price during the pandemic and now is the time to rethink the support they need. our education editor branwenjeffreys reports. playing with friends at school. children have missed so much this year, so a huge survey of children is planned in england, to understand their experiences. the children's commissioner argues for children in government. the new woman in the job says families still need support. she told me free school meals should stay through the summer. i absolutely want to see free school meals extended, and i'm very concerned about suggestions of dropping universal credit. if universal credit was dropped down again, i'd like to see services provided in that case but i'd rather it wasn't dropped. do you think they were too slow to listen to marcus rashford? yes. these six formers said the pandemic had affected all their lives. seeing people, as a kind of recreational activity, kind of went down to nothing. and i think the impact that has on someone's mind, especially in this period of your life, when you're a teenager... this is the time when most of your memories are made. there needs to be change to helping people who have been affected, notjust by the pandemic but by years long inequalities. the last year has made visible pressures on children's lives that were already there. the children who got a quiet place to study and those that don't — families under pressure struggling to put food on the table. and the pressures on young people's mental health. the government said there is more support in schools, for mental health and catching up, as well as £220 million going to local councils — cash for holiday activities and food for families who need help this year. branwen jeffreys, bbc news. the sister of the north korean leader kimjong—un has warned the us not to "cause a stink", asjoe biden�*s administration prepares to set out its korean policy. kim yo—jong criticised the us and south korea for conducting joint military exercises. her comments come a day before the us secretaries of state and defence are due to arrive in south korea. nicola sturgeon is to reveal her latest plan to ease lockdown restrictions in scotland later. it's thought the first minister will give more detail on when shops and hospitality will be able to open. she's previously said her government will be led by "data, not dates." and in northern ireland, ministers will also meet to review lockdown restrictions. they're expected to provide further clarity on when all school children will return to classes. let's take a look at this remarkable footage of a pod of orcas swimming off the coast of shetland. the pictures were filmed by photographer gary buchan, who was able to follow them for 45 minutes, as they played with each other. some whale facts for you — male orcas can grow to a jaw—dropping 8 metres in length, and can weigh up to 6 tons. despite that weight, they can travel at speeds of up to 30 miles per hour. what lovely pictures, aren't they? glorious. now the weather with matt. it looks foreboding. it does at the moment. it is going to be a day that improves. bearwith moment. it is going to be a day that improves. bear with it, things will get brighter. a bit of a damp start in many areas. through the day, the sunshine will gradually come out and most of us will be under blue skies this afternoon. this is where the rain is falling on the child. light and patchy in the south and east. the heaviest band in the east of scotland, the north of england. they are ushering in the brighter conditions. reaching southern counties late morning, around lunchtime. the rain could linger across east anglia and the south—east. elsewhere, the skies brighten up and the cloud breaks up. a bit of a breeze blowing. it will have a huge impact on temperatures. mild for this stage in march. in herefordshire, it should reach about 16 degrees. in the channel islands, south—east england and east anglia, you will be struggling to get the brighter weather till later in the day. the evening will turn brighter before the sun finally disappears. tonight, clearskies before the sun finally disappears. tonight, clear skies to begin with. maybe patchy rain in the far north—east of scotland. mostly a dry night, a chilly night with a touch of frost. for the rest of the day the emphasis remains on dry weather but it will turn cooler, particularly towards the south. more details at 6:45am and i will reveal the weather watcher picture winner. we're talking food shopping habits this morning, and how the pandemic has hit hospitality. nina's here with more. lots of guesswork happening about when we come out of this, whether we will shop more locally or go back to the supermarkets. that's right, it's almost a year now since we started fighting for online supermarket delivery spots, and since restaurants began pivoting towards takeaways and deliveries. the big question now as we dare to dream a return to normal — is whether normal will look different. you might not have noticed if you haven't been to your local high street, but, in 2020, more than 17,500 chain stores closed. the latest casualty is thorntons. the company which was founded in sheffield more than 100 years ago is to shut all 61 of its shops putting around 600 jobs at risk. it has been a torrid time for hospitality with literally dozens of well known names shutting outlets and cutting jobs. (an14)but the pandemic has triggered a huge rise in takeaways. we spent around £30 per family per month last summer — that is four times pre—pandemic spend. pre—pandemic would you have entertained a sausage — or even vegan sausage roll delivery? greggs is one of the high street names which has moved to deliveries. their results are out in an hour and we should get some insight in to what their plans are next. are they sticking with the idea of moving branches out of city centres and on to smaller high streets? are we set to stick to local eating? we spoke with shoppers in rawtenstall in lancashire. we're definitely eating healthier because i think we're cooking a lot more fresh food, and more interested in what we're cooking, so spending more time in the kitchen. i think that means we're buying a lot more interesting food as well. maybe, you know, more spices, more herbs, making things taste better because you can't go out to a restaurant. i think that we've been buying definitely more local. we've got a great fruit and veg shop in town, we've got a great butcher's, so we do kind of try and support them throughout these times. shopping—wise, i think we've been trying go to big supermarkets less often and just getting what we need at the time really. i'm personallyjust looking forward to not having to think _ about what to cook on a friday or a saturday night _ and just going out . for something to eat. i think we've tried to... at first it was like, - "eat whatever you want, it doesn't matter," and now it's |trying to be a bit more mindfulj because we're going to be allowed out again soon. . i feel a ifeel a bit like i feel a bit like that. ifeel a bit like that. dying i feel a bit like that. dying to get out. what have you learned over the last year about eating from home and which of those habits will stick. we get results from greggs in about an hour. we know brands like greggs do well post recession. you might not go out for a £10 burger but you might get a lovely sausage roll for £1. they did plan to go out of city centres and into towns. we will find out if they have the capital to go ahead with that investment. stop! sausaue ahead with that investment. stop! sausage rolls _ ahead with that investment. stop! sausage rolls is _ ahead with that investment. stop! sausage rolls is one _ ahead with that investment. stop! sausage rolls is one of _ ahead with that investment. stop! sausage rolls is one of my - ahead with that investment. stop! sausage rolls is one of my favourite things. i go on a very long bike ride for the sausage rolls. that is sausage roll commitment. see you later on. let's take a look at today's papers. and the story that's dominating most of the front pages this morning is the suspension of the rollout of the oxford—astrazeneca vaccine in a number of european countries. the daily mail's headline reads "reckless" eu snubs ukjab." meanwhile, the guardian leads on the advice from the eu medicines regulator, which says the benefits of the jab far outweigh the risks. the times focuses on the uk's regulator, which says there's no evidence that the vaccine causes blood clots after studying data on 11—million people who have had already had the jab here. and the website for the french newspaper, le figaro, says the european medicines agency has called an �*extraordinary�* meeting for thursday — to decide what action should be taken next. we are talking about that throughout the programme this morning. i think it is ten past eight we have fergus walsh, who will be able to talk about any questions you have about the vaccine. our medical editor will be here to answer those issues. i have two things. touching on what nina was saying, you know how we are constantly adjusting what is in a basket for the consumer price index. what do you think is in? is it sausage rolls? they are not in there, unfortunately. hand sanitiser, we are buying more than that. jogging bottoms. women's hideous and sweatshirts. smart light bulbs and maltesers. out goes ground coffee, takeaway sandwiches. nine karat gold chain and women's casual trousers. i don't know who is not buying a nine karat gold chain. i am just reading what it says. you will like this one. i was going to read that. it is my favourite story of the day. hot cross buns are for any time of year and you can find them in any supermarket, according to dan anyway! hot cross buns met many buy them around easter time. how many seconds do you need to toast them for? researchers seeking the perfect hot cross bun say it is 62 seconds is how long you should toast a hot cross bun for. do you put something on top of it? but all the time and occasionally butter and jam. ok. on top of it? but all the time and occasionally butterand jam. ok. —— butter. i am a maverick! shall we talk about the oscars as well? fingers crossed, there could be british success in the oscars. emerald fennel is leading a charge for the most successful acting performance in two decades. she was the first british woman ever nominated in the best director category. she has received three nods on account of her direction, production and writing. a promising young woman. very impressive. not entirely sure how they are going to do the oscars. the emmys were from home and the grammys, there are limited numbers of people in the room. we will wait to see what happens with the oscars. the events surrounding the death of sarah everard and the vigil in her memory have prompted conversations about how women feel about their safety. ellie gould was killed in 2019. brea kfast�*s tim muffett has been speaking to her friends about their loss, and what needs to change. ellie was lovely, she was great. i met her when i went to sixth form, the first day of school. eddie gould was murdered by her former boyfriend in 2019. for herfriend harriet, recent events have been hard to bear. the past few days have been really challenging. they definitely bring back a lot of memories and emotions from when we lost ellie. what kind of conversations have you been having with your friends? we've had lots of conversations about it. i think they differ between the people, really. talking to my male friends, they want to learn about what i have to say about it, or they want to learn about my experiences and what i go through day to day because they can't understand it. they don't go through it themselves. hearing that it happened to someone else is so... it's so sad, and i hope people can step back and think, "it could be me, it could be my mum, it could be my sister, it could be anyone." these conversations are so important. following the death of sarah everard, they're the sort of conversations that are taking place amongst friends and within families across the country. for ellie's friends, those conversations have been especially poignant and, at times, impassioned. we're still in a situation where women are dying weekly because of men. i think there comes a time where you need to look at the source of the problem and men need to change. it has obviously been devastating seeing the family having to go through something very similar to what we went through. for some, this is a chance to reflect on other types of unacceptable behaviour by some men towards women. a lot of the time, men like to get defensive when women are expressing their fears and thoughts on men. for others, there is a risk that men who have done nothing wrong are also being blamed. we understand it is not all men. when we say all men, it is because we don't have time to pick and choose what man is going to do something to us when we are walking down the street. we don't have time to think, "is this a good person or is it a bad person? am i going to get assaulted or am i not?" we just react in that situation. we understand it's not all men but it's too many men for us to be able to differentiate. is there a danger by doing that, people who are innocent will get blamed for other people's behaviour? we're just saying we'd like men to be more accountable for their actions and think, "should i walk is close to a woman? is my friend being too touchy of a lady in a club?" we just want men to be more aware. it's not uncomfortable, not for me at least to talk about, because, at the end of the day, from what we've seen, men are the ones causing this issue a large proportion of the time. and so, i think, we do need to address it at the source. thankfully, very few people will ever experience the pain this group of friends have gone through. many of us are having similar conversations. tim muffett, bbc news. that is something we are going to continue talking about today here. if you have anything you want to add, to get in touch with us. you know how to do that. still to come on breakfast... we'll speak to the wildlife photographer, whose urban garden in sheffield became a lifeline during lockdown, helping him capture these amazing images. and we want to see yours! have you got any? yes, you've got plenty. i spend a lot of time looking around in the garden these days. what have you spotted from your window over the last year? send us your photos to bbcbreakfast@bbc.co.uk, and we'll show some of them later on the programme. time now to get the news, travel and weather where you are. good morning from bbc london, i'm asad ahmad. plain clothes police officers are to patrol bars and nightclubs in an effort to protect women from predatory offenders. officers will look at actively identifing those acting suspiciously in the night time economy when it restarts, possibly within weeks. better lighting and more cctv has also been promised by the task force chaired by the prime minister. it follows following the murder of sarah everard, who went missing in south london two weeks ago. well, a metropolitan police officer involved in the search for ms everard, has been removed from duties for allegedly sharing an inappropriate graphic. scotland yard said the image was shared on social media on friday, and was reported by a number of officers who were concerned by its content. the pc involved will still work in what's called a non—public facing role. the constable has been referred to the police watchdog. the contents of the graphic has not been disclosed. the homeless charity shelter says around 20% of adult londoners are now more worried about becoming homeless, due to the coronavirus pandemic. following a survey, the charity estimates that more than 10% of adults have — in the past year — cut back on food or skipped meals to pay their rent or mortgage. a government says households have been at the heart of decision—making throughout the pandemic. a look at the travel situation, and the advice from the government is still to stay home unless yourjourney is essential and you are allowed to make it. if you are, this is what the tube board looks like. the hammersmith & city line has minor delays due to train cancellations. on the roads, it's busier than usual on the a13 in to town. the exit slip at lodge avenue is closed by the police, adding to the usual delays. and in west london, at paddington, lancaster terrace is closed for repairs to a burst water main. now the weather with kate kinsella. good morning. it's a rather grey, cloudy start this morning. we've got some outbreaks of rain as well, and it looks like it's going to stay largely cloudy throughout. now, the wind is light first thing. it will strengthen into the afternoon. high pressure still in charge, but a couple of fronts still moving through, a warm front, followed by a cold front. so that's what's bringing these outbreaks of rain. some dry spells between them. through the afternoon, gradually those fronts sinking south. so the cloud could potentially clear the further north you are. temperatures are feeling very mild despite that strengthening wind. we're looking at a maximum of 11! celsius this afternoon. overnight tonight, some clear spells. chilly in one or two spots. cloud feeding into the east. it is thick enough to produce the odd spot of rain, but nothing more significant. the minimum temperature between three and five celsius. some bright spells at first tomorrow, but again, the cloud will start to feed in from the east. thick enough to produce the odd spot of rain through tomorrow. it gets a little bit chilly on thursday. we pick up a north easterly breeze. va nessa vanessa feltz is getting ready to start her breakfast show from seven. hello, this is breakfast with louise minchin and dan walker. just coming up to 6:30am. "baffling" and "disappointing" — those are just two of the words used by british scientists about the decision to halt the roll—out of the oxford astrazeneca vaccine in some european countries. it's over concerns about possible side effects, but the manufacturer says there's no evidence a link between the vaccine and blood clots. let's speak now to gp dr rachel ward. good morning. it is really

sally, you wouldn't be here? yes, iwould be standing in the cold looking forward to an exciting day of racing at cheltenham. not they are today because everything is so different. —— not there today. the biggest festival in the british horse racing calendar gets under way today — but unlike last year, there will be no fans at cheltenham. the pandemic means the stands will be empty. and the sport's image has been badly damaged recently — trainer gordon elliott and amateur jockey robjames were pictured sitting on dead horses. i think that the images shown in recent weeks, and seeing those break through into mainstream media, and outside of racing media, is damaging. and we really need to redouble efforts to build that public trust and to show the general public that horse welfare is at the centre of everything we do, and that this is just a truly wonderful sport. more on cheltenham later in the programme. let's take a look at last night's action in the premier league. and jurgen klopp described liverpool's win over wolves as "three dirty points". diogojota scored the only goal of the game, against his former side. but there was a worrying incident at the end when the wolves goalkeeper rui patricio was stretchered off with a nasty looking head injury, after colliding with one of his own players. he was conscious and he's said to be ok. we wish him, of course, all the best

importance immediately, yes? whisper it quietly, but we could finally have the big fight between anthonyjoshua and tyson fury. joshua's promoter eddie hearn says they've signed a two—fight deal. when and where are yet to be determined, but boxing commentator steve bunce believes it could well be a very lucrative contract. it would generate more money than any other fight in history, and that could be gazumped by their rematch. it would generate $400 and $500 million, i'm absolutely convinced of that. there's a suggestion that the pay per view for fans in great britain could be as much as £40 - £40! and you know what? you do three or four million of those at 40 quid, you've got an awful lot of money already in your kitty. that's quite a lot of cash, isn't it? i said we would have more on cheltenham. one of the jockeys who'll be there this year is ten—time cheltenham winner tom scudamore — hejoins us now. morning to you, tom. thank you so much forjoining us this morning. obviously this

in england were delighted to see their children back at school last week — but for many, the struggle continues. more than 50,000 children have yet to return to the classroom because they're shielding, while some other parents have chosen to keep pupils away in order to protect other vulnerable family members. breakfast�*s jayne mccubbin reports on how the last year has left some families torn and struggling to cope. early years, welcome back. come on in. a week ago, this was only part of the story. ready? one, two, three... this is leo. you're getting very heavy. hello, there! jude and flynn. 0h, we've headbutted each other. twins arthur and alfie. these are some of the children who aren't yet going back to school. if i'm honest with you, i felt forgotten the whole way through. yes, they could go back to school and they'd be with their friends. but if they brought it home, they might lose their mum. these are some of the families who are exhausted after a full year of shielding and home schooling. you know, one time i timed it, and it was 92 times in one hour that i heard "mummy". erm, yeah. jude and flynn are fit, healthy, happy boys, but their mum is shielding with chronic asthma, and the family decided to keep the boys away from school. we'd got everything ready. we'd bought the shoes, tried on the uniforms, got the new book bags. and then we just had this kind of dawning, i guess, thinking, we're just sending them back, and the only thing to protect me is just crossing our fingers and hoping for the best. and why would we do that after all this time that we've been able to stay safe at home together? you could be told that that's an unauthorised absence, and you could possibly be fined for that. and you're a solicitor as well, so you understand the rules and regulations very well. i think ultimately we were prepared to do that if we had to. i think it's very unfortunate that people in our situation are having to make that kind of choice, because ultimately it isn't my children's fault that they've got a disabled mum. charlotte says she is thankful for an understanding headteacher. emma is not willing to take the risk. two of her children are shielding and can't go to school. but three have been told they must. if i don't send them, i'd get fined. and i could get into trouble for it. but they're also expecting me to shield the two. now bear in mind i'm on my own with them, so i have to get three children to education, but also shield two. this is nowjust part of her exhausting daily routine, trying to keep the virus out by disinfecting, washing and wiping every time the children come in. i had a bit of a cry yesterday, to be fair, because it was just, what is going on? this is madness. we're planting the bulbs in. some families are physically and mentally exhausted after a year without the support they'd usually rely on. leo is shielding. you can't afford to fall apart for a second... no, absolutely. ..because you're mum and teacher and nurse and... and dad. 0h, don't, you'll start me off. but, i've not even cried for my dad passing yet, because when i do get upset — oh, here we go — when i do get upset, he, erm... ..his world falls apart. if she's upset, then something really bad is happening. i love you bottom of my heart. do you? i love you from the bottom of my heart. in school, leo used to have one to one support. his mum had access to respite. but since september, he's only had one daily 30—minute zoom with a teaching assistant. his mum hasn't had a break in a year. it's literallyjust — this gives you an indication — it'sjust below the surface. it's a millimetre thick. so, yes, it's... ..erm, yeah, iwouldn't change my life. you know, when i get to the end of this, you know, it will be the greatest fight that i've ever had. the government says school is the best place for children, and those who live with someone who is shielding are still expected to go in, though headteachers can authorise absences in exceptional circumstances. jude and flynn will go back to school two weeks after their mum's second jab at the start of may. i'm missing my friends, but i'm ok and i'm happy at home protecting mummy. but for alfie, arthur and leo, it's complicated. all right, bubble? the government is expected to end shielding at the end of march. but will that be enough to give parents the confidence to send their vulnerable children back into class? i think i'd feel a bit more relieved once the vaccine comes out for the children. the first uk study to assess the safety of a covid vaccine for kids only started two weeks ago. it's been a struggle for so many, but there's been joy too. one of the joys of this, erm, this whole thing, is the fact that i have got hugs and love on tap, you know, from leo, because he is such a lovely, caring and thoughtful little boy. it's hard to watch that, isn't it? it's hard to watch that, isn't it? it's a beautiful relationship but you can

pick of the season winner from her weather watchers files. let's get the forecast first. the skies in buckinghamshire won't win many awards, a bit grey and murky. bear with it. it will gradually turn drier and sunnier across the country. most of us will be under blue skies this afternoon. look at the satellite picture. if you have the satellite picture. if you have the cloud from space. it is this gap we are keeping an eye on. it is moving south and east behind this zone of cloud. brightening up quickest in scotland and northern ireland. the heaviest rain at the moment is in eastern scotland into the far north west of england, north and west wales. patchy rain at the south and east. it drier for a time. the rain moves to a south through the morning. most will see the cloud break up. the sunshine comes out. a blustery wind. nowhere near as strong as we saw last week. temperatures this afternoon will be into double figures, just about a uk wide. and one or two across part of the south lake district could reach 17 degrees. it may take until this evening before we see sunshine in east anglia and the south—east. a chillier night. temperatures are low enough for frostjust chillier night. temperatures are low enough for frost just about anywhere. fog parishes in north west england, the midlands and wales. as we going to midway, wednesday, high pressure in the chart. high pressure means dry generally. we are still spilling some cloud in across northern and eastern areas. showers into east anglia and the south—east. the odd spot of drizzle in the north of scotland. overall a dry day. fog will clear by mid—morning. sunshine for many. clouding over in northern scotland and northern ireland later in the day. cooler than today. high pressure moves further west as we go into thursday. winds coming around into thursday. winds coming around in this direction. we start to see more of a northerly wind across the country on thursday. more cloud around. still some good sunny spells here and there. southern scotland, maybe the south coast reasonably well favoured. still the chance of rain in east anglia and the south—east. temperatures on the eastern coast due to the breeze, eight to nine celsius. dry through friday into the weekend. for most. a breeze in the south. that brings us to the big reveal of what will be the picture of the season for winter. voted for that by the british public. all our weather watchers shots well used on breakfast. the winner this season goes to this shot. a stunning shot. let me move out of the way. from glen coe in the highlands. just to the south of fort william. an absolutely stunning shot. i think you will agree it really summed up winterfor many of you will agree it really summed up winter for many of us at one point, looking decidedly chilly and snowy as well. well done. i love the textures in it. it is absolutely stunning and well deserved. absolutely stunning and well deserved-— absolutely stunning and

a bit of tartan tie. beautiful. thank you. exactly one year ago today, the pandemic forced theatres to bring down their curtains indefinitely. many of them have been plunged into economic turmoil by the shutdown, with some smaller theatres warning that they may never reopen. our reporter ben boulos is at the apollo theatre in london's west end. morning, ben. good morning. yes, on this day exactly a year ago theatres like this one and others across the country went dark. they were told they had to close because of the pandemic. in a normalyear they had to close because of the pandemic. in a normal year something like 34 million people would visit a theatre, packing out of the stalls. and through ticket sales, restaurant meals and coach sales, that would generate more than £1 million in vat for the government. in a moment we hear how they are planning to reopen safely. at first, a look at the impact it has had ever since the night the show did not go on. theatres as they're meant to be. but for a year, uk theatres have been deserted, suddenly told to close on the 16th of march, 2020, leaving empty chairs and empty stages, and empty order books, at this props maker and supplier. the week before the theatres closed we'd just opened phantom of the opera and we'd just opened the back to the future musical in manchester. we'd just got back to london and we had this crazy, busy time planned. and itjust all stopped. i mean, everything stopped. we told our guys that we would stop for two weeks and see what happened. then it was seven months before we came back here. during that long interval the workshop became a hub for the show must go on campaign, raising £800,000 to support theatre workers who'd lost theirjobs, and nhs charities. during lockdown the national theatre streamed 16 shows online, watched by millions around the world. the industry welcomed the government's £1.5 billion emergency support for arts venues like this one. but some fear the effects of the long shutdown on the industry's many freelance workers. the impact has been much, eh, most harshly felt by the freelancers who we work with. the vast majority, 70% of the theatre industry, are freelancers. and i think almost 40% of them have not been eligible for any government support. and as you can imagine, there's been no work at all. the impact on their lives has been chronic. at the time i was living with some housemates who were technicians. and we got the text like one after the other, like, you've lost your work, you've lost your work. harri marshall is a freelance theatre maker in york who's deaf. her furlough ended after three months, and she had to find other work. my steady income job at the minute is, i'm a ward clerk of the nhs. so i work on the labour ward, which is really, really busy at the minute, as you can imagine. like, it's so nice to see a lot of people having families, but it's also like, why are there so many? i'd really love to resume being a freelancer again. picking up where i kind of left of almost exactly a year ago. so i'd love to continue nerding out with the lights and the programming. i'd love to keep making work with young people and vulnerable adults. and i'd really love to keep directing and writing my own shows. but we'll all have to wait and see. # one more look and iforget everything. # mamma mia...# uk theatres could start to reopen from the 17th of may, albeit with social distancing and limited audience numbers. it won't be scenes like this right away. but it's certainly something to sing about. well, let's find out how exactly theatres are going to try to reopen safely. let's speak to the mics of the imax theatre, six theatres in the imax theatre, six theatres in the west end. nico, how would you get

officers will look at actively identifing those acting suspiciously in the night time economy when it restarts possibly within weeks. better lighting and more cctv has also been promised by the taskforce chaired by the prime minister. it follows the murder of sarah everard, who went missing in south london two weeks ago. and in connection to that case, a metropolitan police officer involved in the search for ms everard has been removed from duties for allegedly sharing an "inappropriate graphic." scotland yard said the image was shared on social media, and was reported by a number of officers, "who were concerned by its content." the pc involved will still work in what's called a "non—public facing role." the constable has been referred to the police watchdog. the contents of the graphic has not been disclosed. the homeless charity, shelter, says around 20% of adult londoners are now more worried about becoming homeless, due to the coronavirus pandemic. following a survey, the charity estimates that more than 10% of adults have, in the past year, cut back on food or skipped meals to pay their rent or mortgage. the government says "households have been at the heart of decision—making throughout the pandemic. " a look at the travel situation, and the advice from the government is still to stay home unless yourjourney is essential and you are allowed to make it. if you are, this is what the tube board looks like. the hammersmith & city line has minor delays due to train cancellations. on the roads, it's busier than usual on the a13 in to town. the exit slip at lodge avenue is closed by the police adding to the usual delays. and in west london, at paddington: lancaster terrace is closed for repairs to a burst water main. now the weather with kate kinsella. good morning. it's a rather grey, cloudy start this morning. we've got some outbreaks of rain as well, and it looks like it's going to stay largely cloudy throughout. now, the wind is light first thing. it will strengthen into the afternoon. high pressure still in charge, but a couple of fronts still moving through, a warm front, followed by a cold front. so that's what's bringing these outbreaks of rain. some dry spells between them. through the afternoon, gradually those fronts sinking south. so the cloud could potentially clear the further north you are. temperatures are feeling very mild despite that strengthening wind. we're looking at a maximum of 14 celsius this afternoon. overnight tonight, some clear spells. chilly in one or two spots. cloud feeding into the east. it is thick enough to produce the odd spot of rain, but nothing more significant. the minimum temperature between three and five celsius. some bright spells at first tomorrow, but again, the cloud will start to feed in from the east. thick enough to produce the odd spot of rain through tomorrow. it gets a little bit chilly on thursday. we pick up a north easterly breeze. i'm back with the latest from the bbc london newsroom in half an hour. good morning. welcome to breakfast with dan walker and louise minchin. our headlines today... the eu's biggest nationsjoin the list of countries suspending use of the oxford—astrazeneca vaccine. but the jab is safe, according to the world health organisation and british experts. the message for now is the vaccine is safe and effective. it has saved thousands and thousands of elderly and vulnerable people's lives. hundreds more gather to remember sarah everard, as downing street unveils new measures to protect women. we're looking forward to the cheltenham festival but it will look very different to previous years, with no fans in the stands when it gets underway today. and it may be a bit grey and gloomy as he opened the curtains today that brighter skies are under way. most of us see sunshine this afternoon. a full forecast during breakfast. it's tuesday, the 16th of march. the world health organization has urged countries not to pause covid vaccinations, after several major eu member states suspended their rollouts of the oxford—astrazeneca jab. the who says the vaccine is safe, and there's no evidence that it causes blood clots. its vaccine safety experts will meet later to discuss the issue, as jim reed reports. 11 million people in the uk have already been given their first dose of the astrazeneca vaccine without any serious side effects emerging. but a growing number of other countries have now suspended its use after a small number of cases of blood clotting were recorded. france, germany, italy and spain have temporarily stopped using the vaccine as a precautionary measure, days after norway said three health care workers had needed hospital treatment. several other european countries, including austria, has stopped using certain batches of the drug. medical regulators in both the uk and the eu have said there is no evidence the clots were the result of being given the vaccine itself. manufacturer astrazeneca said the number of cases of blood clotting so far is no higher than doctors would expect to see in the general population in normal times. and the government's scientific advisers say there is no reason to pause the rollout in this country. the message for now is this vaccine is safe and effective. it's saved thousands and thousands of elderly and vulnerable people's lives and we're determined to press on with it unless we see a major safety signal to suggest otherwise — in which case we will be open and transparent with the public. later today, the safety committee of the eu drugs agency will meet to review all the cases that have come to light so far. if it gives the green light, then other countries are likely to resume their vaccination programmes quickly. in the uk, the message from scientists is to take any coronavirus jab if offered, as all the data so far show the risks of catching covid far outweigh the risks of a side effect from any vaccine. jim reed, bbc news. france is amongst the european countries that have stopped administering the oxford—astrazeneca vaccine. let's speak to our paris correspondent hugh schofield. morning to you. what exactly is the discussion around this topic at the moment in france? it is discussion around this topic at the moment in france?— moment in france? it is the precautionary _ moment in france? it is the precautionary principle, - moment in france? it is the precautionary principle, our| moment in france? it is the . precautionary principle, our old friend the precautionary principle, which come in so much policy in europe and arguably slows things down when they do not need to be slowed down. there are no signs of any side effects being reported in any side effects being reported in any number here in france. there have been it seems in other countries but not here in france. as part of a european group action, and in coordination therefore with other countries, in particular germany, france has gone ahead with this suspension of the drug. a lot of people will be saying, it is just france doing what it was doing earlier on with astrazeneca, sour grapes and all of that post—brexit, trying to diss the uk vaccine. i do not think it is that in this case. astrazeneca, the vaccine from astrazeneca, the vaccine from astrazeneca is very much part of french strategy now. the french programme is not going well and it needs all the drugs it can get. astrazeneca was filling a very important hole in the market may be directed towards the wider community, people are about 50 with how morbidity is. it can be delivered easily by doctors and pharmacies and does not need to be stored and so on. it is very much part of french strategy. france is having to suspend use of this drug which means its vaccination programme, which has already got off to a slow start, is slow down even further. it wants it over very quickly. it is hoping when europeans meet it as quickly put back on the market. . ~ meet it as quickly put back on the market. .,

death of sarah everard. it's after hundreds of people took part in another vigilfor the 33—year—old in london last night. dan johnson reports. chanting this reaction, the strength of feeling, isn't just about sarah everard's death, but the wider questions that have been raised about women's safety and the response of the police. yesterday, officers kept a low profile and a mostly hands—off approach, at the start of this gathering in parliament square. it went ahead despite the home secretary urging people to stick to covid regulations, and in defiance of the government's new policing bill, part of which will limit future protests. last night, the home office said it was already increasing the amount spent making our streets safer, from £20 million to £45 million. this investment will go on very practical measures like increased and better lighting, more cctv, to try to give people that confidence that we really, really want to instil after last week's terribly, terribly sad events. last night's vigil moved to westminster bridge, downing street and the headquarters of london's metropolitan police. the organisation, reclaim these streets, says it has lost faith in the leadership of the force. officers did step in, telling people to keep moving and head home, orface fines for breaching lockdown rules. at the centre of all this, we cannot forget an innocent young woman, who was just walking home. sarah everard's death has already shaken this country, making us question how society works and whether it fairly protects everyone. danjohnson, bbc news, central london. danjohnson is at new scotland yard this morning. the discussions around all of this are still continuing, aren't they? absolutely, yes. that morning. the protest that ended here last night resulted in another four arrests. the concern in response to this case goes far beyond london and that is why the government has made this extra £25 million available through its safer streets are planned. that is many councils can apply for, it could go on providing late—night controls orfunding could go on providing late—night controls or funding plainclothes officers to police bars and nightclubs when they can reopen. labour has said the extra money does not even go far enough to cover cuts to local services that had taken place over the last ten years. reclaim these streets welcomes the funding but says there are deeper issues here and cultural change is needed to address what it considers to be misogyny at the heart of policing, the courts, the criminal justice system. the government has said the policing bill which is going through parliament now, by coincidence, will give tougher sentences and extra police powers which means there will be more justice to victims. there are concerns about the impact that will have on the level of protests in future. at the heart of this, there are big questions raised by sarah everard's death but he also had to bearin everard's death but he also had to bear in mind herfamily are still grieving and the fact there is a murder investigation is still going on. �* ., murder investigation is still going on_ a ,, ., 4' murder investigation is still going free school meals should be extended in england over the summer holiday this year — that's according to the new children's commissioner dame rachel de souza. speaking to the bbc, she said children have paid a high price during the pandemic and now is the time to rethink the support they need. our education editor branwenjeffreys reports. playing with friends at school. children have missed so much this year, so a huge survey of children is planned in england, to understand their experiences. the children's commissioner argues for children in government. the new woman in the job says families still need support. she told me free school meals should stay through the summer. i absolutely want to see free school meals extended, and i'm very concerned about suggestions of dropping universal credit. if universal credit was dropped down again, i'd like to see services provided in that case but i'd rather it wasn't dropped. do you think they were too slow to listen to marcus rashford? yes. these six formers said the pandemic had affected all their lives. seeing people, as a kind of recreational activity, kind of went down to nothing. and i think the impact that has on someone's mind, especially in this period of your life, when you're a teenager... this is the time when most of your memories are made. there needs to be change to helping people who have been affected, notjust by the pandemic but by years long inequalities. the last year has made visible pressures on children's lives that were already there. the children who got a quiet place to study and those that don't — families under pressure struggling to put food on the table. and the pressures on young people's mental health. the government said there is more support in schools, for mental health and catching up, as well as £220 million going to local councils — cash for holiday activities and food for families who need help this year. branwen jeffreys, bbc news. nicola sturgeon is to reveal her latest plan to ease lockdown restrictions in scotland later. it's thought the first minister will give more detail on when shops and hospitality will be able to open. she's previously said her government will be led by "data, not dates". and in northern ireland, ministers will also meet to review lockdown restrictions — they're expected to provide further clarity on when all school children will return to classes. the sister of the north korean leader kim jong—un has warned the us not to "cause a stink" if it "wants to sleep in peace" for the next four years. kim yo—jong's comments come as senior members ofjoe biden's administration are due to arrive in seoulfor talks. she's also criticised the us and south korea for conducting joint military exercises. in the last few minutes, greggs have announced their results. nina is here with more. iimagine you i imagine you havejust i imagine you have just washed i imagine you havejust washed in with some paper in your hand. i had to print it all out.— to print it all out. losses last ear for to print it all out. losses last year for greggs _ to print it all out. losses last year for greggs but - to print it all out. losses last year for greggs but not - to print it all out. losses last year for greggs but not as i year for greggs but not as catastrophic as they were concerned about. greggs is big. 23,000 staff across 2,000 branches. and pre—pandemic the pasty masters were on top form; turning over 1.2 billion in 2019. that's £20 for every person. that's a lot of sausage rolls. today's results show... annual losses of £13.7 million, compared to 108 million in profit the year before. this is the first time they have announced losses since they were listed back in 1984. they did announce 820 job losses at the end of last year. plans announced injanuary, more than 100 new shops, out of town, with lower rents, accessible by car and tapping in to the work from home market, which they believe will stick. some analysts predicting that greggs could come out of this stronger than ever. a value product, close to home, in spots with lower rents, is a model which could fare well if there is less disposable income around. so overall, big losses as expected. but certainly a sense that recovery and growth is around the corner. shall we find out what is happening with the weather? good morning stop compared with the weather watcher �*s shot i showed you half an hour ago, this one not quite as optimistic. grey skies in wigan. a similar story for many of us. it is getting better kind of day. we swap the grey skies for blue ones later. most of us will be sunny this afternoon. lighter patchy rain in the south and east. this band of heavy rain is working its way across northern england and north and west wales. the rain will trundle its way across england and wales. blue skies into the afternoon in northern ireland, midlands as well. a bit of a blustery day, not as windy as we have been used to of late. even with the breeze, when the sunshine comes out, you will feel quite warm. temperatures peaking in wales and the south and makes around 16 celsius, well above where we should be for the time of year. this afternoon and this evening we will hold onto a lot of cloud. there could be that the spots of light rain and drizzle here and there. maybe these glimpses of late sunshine before that dips below the horizon. tonight, when we have lost the sun, temperatures will drop quite quickly. thrust around to take us into tomorrow morning. —— thrust around. plenty of sunshine around on wednesday. a bit of cloud on thursday and friday. turning colder in the south stop the full forecast around 8:15am. the prime minister has defended the crime and policing bill, describing it as a "sensible package of measures" ahead of a vote in parliament due this evening. the legislation makes various changes to the crime and justice system, but labour says it won't be supporting it because it's been "poorly thought out." joining us now is the party's shadow minister for domestic violence and safeguarding, jess phillips. good morning. nice to speak to you on the programme this morning stop i am sure many of our viewers will have seen your ten point plan published in one of the newspapers this morning to keep women safe. that was published before the government announcement last night for the safer streets fund, which has gone up from £20 million to £45 million is that an investment you welcome? i million is that an investment you welcome? . ., ., , , welcome? i welcome any

violence, it is not something that is ever particularly asked for by experts and victims in these circumstances. currently there are not the laws that prosecute people who street her as. i'm a bit disappointed with what came out of the prime minister's meeting yesterday because it does not seem to speak to any of the concerns from the sector, whether it is rape crisis in england and wales, i have not had anyone asking for extra cctv or undercover police officers in bars. ~ , , ., ~ or undercover police officers in bars. ~ , , ., ,, ., bars. we were speaking to kit malthouse. — bars. we

legislation, saying the policing bill does bring in tougher sentencing for serious violent and sexual offences. is that something you recognise? do you take issue with that? i you recognise? do you

absolutely take issue with what kit malthouse is - with that? i absolutely take issue with what kit malthouse is saying i with what kit malthouse is saying will help women be safer, it does nothing to prevent crime. they are increasing the amount of time that somebody who is already committed will stay in prison before we let them out. in cases of rape, they say, it will affect that as well. the data they are using is around life sentences for rape. in all my years of experience of rape cases, and i have sat with thousands of victims over the years, i have never known anyone get a life sentence. it is not really that helpful. the trouble with this bill, the government is trying to crowbar in issues about violence against women and girls. for me it is an abuse is charter. it does more to silence women who protest against a lack of safety than to protect people. there is nothing about domestic abuse or sexual violence. there is nothing about street harassment was that they have had to get together in a meeting last night and throw together a plan about cctv and police officers and skinnyjeans in bars. i think they have been caught on the hop and they should slow this legislation down, stop talking about statues and start listening about how to keep the streets safe. what kit malthouse said yesterday, to be honest, he is not speaking from experience like i am. haifa honest, he is not speaking from experience like i am. how would you le . islate experience like i am. how would you legislate differently? _ experience like i am. how would you legislate

differently. the labour party will lay lots of amendments to this law at committee. things like street harassment. an undercover police officer might notice somebody following me, harassing me on the street. there is no law to charge someone with. i would have an entire review on how we prosecute rape. the labour party yesterday released a plan exactly to focus on increasing prosecutions because for most rape victims, the reality is increasing the amount of time somebody who is convicted stays in prison is not very helpful. the reality is that what we need is more people to be going to prison and for the police to be charging more cases of rape. 58,000 cases of child sexual abuse came forward, 3000 convictions. 55,000 rapes reported last year. less than 2000 convictions. this is leaving 53,000 potential rapists on our streets. i would legislate to change that, not statues are making sure ministers can drive ministerial powers in through a protest. i care much more about violence against women and girls than whether i can get in and out of westminster or someone put a loud—hailer in my face. can out of westminster or someone put a loud-hailer in my face.— loud-hailer in my

priti patel was saying there had been 78,000 new responses in a survey against violent —— is about violence against women. if something good is to come from this awful circumstance is it awareness of what women go through? absolutely. everybody in the country is standing shoulder to shoulder with sarah's parents, especially over the weekend on mother's day. i don't think anybody was not thinking about them. any woman who has been murdered, where i have worked with our families and murdered, where i have worked with ourfamilies and i murdered, where i have worked with our families and i worked

that more than 40,000 people across the uk should have started cancer treatment last year, but didn't because of the pandemic. now 47 leading charities have come together to tell radio one's newsbeat that the backlog needs to be cleared quickly — or the cancer survival rate could fall for the first time in decades. the department of health and social care says the treatment of cancer remains a "top priority," as christian hewgill reports. george is 20, and a musical theatre students. passionate about the west end and dance — in particular ballet — he loves nothing more than being on stage. but in recent years, he's had to face being told his thought to be the youngest person in the uk ever to be diagnosed with oesophogal cancer. like many, he saw his treatment options limited by the pandemic. we were considering surgery at one point because i was doing so well because of the pandemic. they didn't want to operate and put me in intensive care or anything like that and put me at higher risk of catching covid or getting extremely ill from it. so it's upsetting that something that is completely out of your control, and that affected the whole world, just affected you that slight bit and you do have that, well, what if the wasn't around? how seriously have cancer patients like yourself been affected by this pandemic? when you have cancer, especially in my situation, where sort of everything is unknown and they don't have a set treatment plan, they don't know how long i'll be on treatment for or need treatment for, having lots of options is your positive thing. suddenly when one gets taken away, it's quite worrying, yeah. the warning from the 47 cancer charities as it could take months, if not years, to clear what they're calling a cancer backlog. that's helping people like george, who had treatment options affected or limited by the pandemic but also reaching out to potentially thousands of people who might be living with cancer without even realising because it's not even been diagnosed yet. during covid, we've seen many examples where people have had their treatments, their screening, their tests paused, delayed, or disrupted. it's a terribly serious problem because we could have the prospect of cancer survival reducing for the first time in decades here in the uk. you're calling on the government to do more. what specifically do you want to see dan about this? we want to see the backlog of 41,000 people found and treated because we know if you diagnose cancer late, you have a lower chance of survival. even a short delay to a cancer diagnosis can be fatal. molly's now in remission but felt ill a couple of weeks after giving birth to matilda. her symptoms were similar to covid, meaning she was not diagnosed until several

curtailed in his travels. like all of us. but first of all we wanted to show some of the amazing images you've captured from your windows over the last year. debra sent us this photo of a "happily posing little robin." look at the colours on this photo from john's garden. this is jo's "cheeky squirrel on the bird feeder." steven spotted this tiny hedgehog in his garden. and alan has taken this corker of a photo — the local friendly pigeon photo bombing his daughter freya's birthday celebrations. i have talked it up now. squirrels are quite clever with bird feeders. they have bent the metal so it does not drop down and they can eat themselves. my squirrel story wasn't that bad, was it? good morning, i'm asad ahmad. plain clothes police officers are to patrol bars and nightclubs, in an effort to protect women from predatory offenders. officers will look at actively identifying those acting suspiciously in the night time economy when it restarts, possibly within weeks. better lighting and more cctv has also been promised by the taskforce chaired by the prime minister. it follows the murder of sarah everard who went missing in south london two weeks ago. and in connection to that case, a metropolitan police officer involved in the search for ms everard, has been removed from duties for allegedly sharing an "inappropriate graphic". scotland yard said the image was shared on social media, and was reported by a number of officers who were concerned by its content. the pc involved will still work in what's called a non—public facing role. the constable has been referred to the police watchdog. the contents of the graphic has not been disclosed. the homeless charity shelter says around 20% of adult londoners are now more worried about becoming homeless, due to the coronavirus pandemic. following a survey, the charity estimates that more than 10% of adults have — in the past year — cut back on food or skipped meals to pay their rent or mortgage. the government says households have been at the heart of decision—making throughout the pandemic. before the travel, a reminder that the advice from the government is still to stay home unless yourjourney is essential and you are allowed to make it. if you are this is what the tube board looks like. the hammersmith & city line has minor delays due to train cancellations. on the roads, it's busier than usual on the a13 in to town. the exit slip at lodge avenue is closed by the police, adding to the usual delays. and in west london, at paddington: lancaster terrace is closed for repairs to a burst water main. now the weather with kate kinsella. good morning. it's a rather grey, cloudy start this morning. we've got some outbreaks of rain as well, and it looks like it's going to stay largely cloudy throughout. now, the wind is light first thing. it will strengthen into the afternoon. high pressure still in charge, but a couple of fronts still moving through, a warm front, followed by a cold front. so that's what's bringing these outbreaks of rain. some dry spells between them. through the afternoon, gradually those fronts sinking south. so the cloud could potentially clear the further north you are. temperatures are feeling very mild despite that strengthening wind. we're looking at a maximum of 14 celsius this afternoon. overnight tonight, some clear spells. chilly in one or two spots. cloud feeding into the east. it is thick enough to produce the odd spot of rain, but nothing more significant. the minimum temperature between three and five celsius. some bright spells at first tomorrow, but again, the cloud will start to feed in from the east. thick enough to produce the odd spot of rain through tomorrow. it gets a little bit chilly on thursday. we pick up a north easterly breeze. i'm back with the latest from the bbc london newsroom in an hour. hello, this is breakfast with louise minchin and dan walker. the world health organization has urged countries not to pause covid vaccinations, after several major eu member states suspended their rollouts of the oxford—astrazeneca jab. the who says the vaccine is safe and there's no evidence that it causes blood clots. its vaccine safety experts will meet later to discuss the issue. downing street has announced a series of measures aimed at improving safety in england for women and girls in the wake of the death of sarah everard. it's after hundreds of people took part in another vigil for the 33—year—old in london last night, despite the home secretary warning against such gatherings. a number of arrests were made. borisjohnson will outline the uk's new defence strategy later, as the government sets out its new post—brexit foreign policy. there'll be a new focus on trade and security links with countries like india, japan and australia, and an increase in the uk's stockpile of nuclear warheads. labour says the strategy will leave the uk "woefully unprepared". let's go back to our main

the eu's biggest nationsjoin the list of countries suspending use of the oxford—astrazeneca vaccine. but the jab is safe according to the world health organisation and british experts. the message for now is the vaccine is safe and effective. it has saved thousands and thousands of elderly and vulnerable people's lives. hundreds more gather to remember sarah everard as downing street unveils new measures to protect women. exactly a year ago today, the curtain came down on theatres like this one, the apollo in london and others across the country, leaving empty chairs at empty stages. we'll find out the effects it has had on those on and backstage and how they are preparing to reopen. greggs announce big losses for 2020, but stick with expansion plans. the pasty masters will accelerate click and collect, deliveries, and moves to out of town sites. what does their strategy tell us about how eating habits are changing? it was the last major sporting event in the uk to be filled with fans, and now a year on, the cheltenham festival will feel very different, with no crowd, and no famous roar. it may be still grey and damp fulsome of you at the moment. stick with it. sunny skies on the way for just about all. the details on breakfast. it's tuesday, the 16th of march. our top story. the world health organization has urged countries not to pause covid vaccinations, after several major eu member states suspended their rollouts of the oxford—astrazeneca jab. the who says the vaccine is safe and there's no evidence that it causes blood clots. its vaccine safety experts will meet later to discuss the issue, as jim reed reports. 11 million people in the uk have already been given their first dose of the astrazeneca vaccine without any serious side effects emerging. but a growing number of other countries have now suspended its use after a small number of cases of blood clotting were recorded. france, germany, italy and spain have temporarily stopped using the vaccine as a precautionary measure, days after norway said three health care workers had needed hospital treatment. several other european countries, including austria, has stopped using certain batches of the drug. medical regulators in both the uk and the eu have said there is no evidence the clots were the result of being given the vaccine itself. manufacturer astrazeneca said the number of cases of blood clotting so far is no higher than doctors would expect to see in the general population in normal times. and the government's scientific advisers say there is no reason to pause the rollout in this country. the message for now is this vaccine is safe and effective. it's saved thousands and thousands of elderly and vulnerable people's lives and we're determined to press on with it unless we see a major safety signal to suggest otherwise — in which case we will be open and transparent with the public. later today, the safety committee of the eu drugs agency will meet to review all the cases that have come to light so far. if it gives the green light, then other countries are likely to resume their vaccination programmes quickly. in the uk, the message from scientists is to take any coronavirus jab if offered, as all the data so far show the risks of catching covid far outweigh the risks of a side effect from any vaccine. jim reed, bbc news. we'rejoined now by our chief political correspondent adam fleming. adam, the foreign secretary dominic raab�*s mounted a strong defence of the vaccine this morning? good morning. government ministers and officials are _ good morning.

to suffer any dangerous side effects and if you have an appointment, you should still go for it. here is what dominic raab said earlier. it is dominic raab said earlier. it is safe. it dominic raab

measures aimed at improving safety in england for women and girls in the wake of the death of sarah everard. it's after hundreds of people took part in another vigilfor the 33—year old in london last night. dan johnson reports. chanting this reaction, the strength of feeling, isn't just about sarah everard's death, but the wider questions that have been raised about women's safety and the response of the police. yesterday, officers kept a low profile and a mostly hands—off approach, at the start of this gathering in parliament square. it went ahead despite the home secretary urging people to stick to covid regulations, and in defiance of the government's new policing bill, part of which will limit future protests. last night, the home office said it was already increasing the amount spent making our streets safer, from £20 million to £16 million. this investment will go on very practical measures like increased and better lighting, more cctv, to try to give people that confidence that we really, really want to instil after last week's terribly, terribly sad events. last night's vigil moved to westminster bridge, downing street and the headquarters of london's metropolitan police. the organisation, reclaim these streets, says it has lost faith in the leadership of the force. officers did step in, telling people to keep moving and head home, orface fines for breaching lockdown rules. at the centre of all this, we cannot forget an innocent young woman, who was just walking home. sarah everard's death has already shaken this country, making us question how society works and whether it fairly protects everyone. danjohnson, bbc news, central london. danjohnson is at new scotland yard this morning. good to talk to you. the police forces still under a lot of pressure today.

available for its safer streets found. £25 million which will be available for councils to bid for an spend on projects to make their areas safer. that could mean more late night patrols are more plain clothes officers policing and side bars and nightclubs when they are able to reopen. labour is saying, this is only a limited amount of money which does not go very far towards covering for the cuts there had been to local services over the last decade. groups like protect the streets have been saying that funding is welcome but there are deeper, cultural issues here that need to be addressed but they think there is misogyny at the heart of policing, the courts and a criminaljustice system. the government says its policing bill will strengthen police powers and the sentencing powers of the courts. it will give more justice for victims. there have been concerns about the potential impact some elements of that bill could have on rights to protest in the future. there are some major issues are raised by this case. at the heart of it is sarah everard's family, who are grieving. there is also a murder investigation is still ongoing. also a murder investigation is still

since 1984. last year it made a profit of £108 million. greggs says it still plans to open a hundred new shops this year, despite announcing 820 job losses at the end of last year. let's take a look at this remarkable footage of a pod of orcas swimming off the coast of shetland. the pictures were filmed by photographer gary buchan, who was able to follow them for 45 minutes as they played with each other. male orcas can grow to 8 metres in length, and can weigh up to 6 tons. despite that weight they can travel at speeds of up to 30 miles per hour. amazing pictures. very beautiful. it's 08:10am. here's matt with a look at this morning's weather. not quite as beautiful but it will improve. look what is heading our way! this is the view from the west of scotland. the sun shines out. it does look chilly. blustery for many of us this morning. on the radar chart, this is where the rain is falling at the moment. in shetland, northern england and western wales, working its way south and east but evenif working its way south and east but even if there are dry spells and if he breaks in the cloud in the south and east, it will cloud over again with patchy rain and drizzle. the breeze will remain a feature. it will be blowing in much sunnier skies. not much clout in the chart. temperatures are going to respond accordingly. quite a mild date for this stage in march. temperatures widely into double figures. if not, the low teens. a few spots could get higher than that. 16 possible. still holding on to plenty of clout in the southernmost counties of england. foremost, we finished the day with sunshine. tonight, the temperature is quickly dropping under clear skies will do quite a chilly night in store. powered in the north of scotland and far south east. there could be fog in the morning. these are the temperatures to start your day. chilly to begin with. plenty of sunshine around on wednesday. more cloud on thursday and friday but most places staying predominantly dry. more than 20 million of us across the uk have now rolled up our sleeves for the first dose of the covid vaccine. but, despite infection rates and hospital admissions falling, an increasing number of our neighbouring countries in europe have paused their rollouts of the oxford—astrazeneca jab — going against advice from the world health organization. fergus walsh is our medical editor, and hejoins us now. fergus cannot always a pleasure to talk to you. thank you for being with us this morning. we havejust spoken to foreign secretary dominic raab. the government is coming out quite strongly in defence of the astrazeneca vaccine. if someone is watching this morning and is concerned, maybe they are in for their jab today, concerned, maybe they are in for theirjab today, what is the advice around this at the moment? the advice is. _ around this at the moment? the advice is. go _ around this at the moment? the advice is, go and _ around this at the moment? tue: advice is, go and have yourjab. the risks from covid are so much greater than any potential side effects. all vaccines or medicines have side effects. the issue in europe is the issue about clots and specifically these thromboembolic events, blood clots that form and then can move around the body blocking arteries. the analysis has shown there have been fewer than 110 of these among 70 million people who have received the jab. that is significantly lower than you would get in the general population. to put it another way, you are more likely to be protected from a clot if you have the jab than if you have not. it begs the question why so many european union countries have decided to pause. i think the reason for that is, and they have history and form on this with the astrazeneca jab, they have taken this incredibly cautious approach, which in normal circumstances is fine but in the midst of a pandemic seems utterly baffling. midst of a pandemic seems utterly bafflinr. . , , ., ,

use it in older people because there was not evidence it worked. they have had to reverse those decisions. then you get angela merkel saying, astrazeneca, there seems to be an acceptance problem. very little surprise for that given that president macron at one point called it quasi ineffective in older people. european countries have not help themselves. at the same time they have been bickering with astrazeneca, saying they are not supplying enough doses. this is really serious. in the midst of a pandemic, in paris for example, they have been shipping intensive care patients out of hospitals to other parts of the country because they are so full. in the midst of rising levels of cases and the threat from covid and many of these countries, to stop immunisation with one of the key vaccines at this point could potentially cost lives. the clear advice from the world health organization, european medicines agency and the regulator here is the benefits of the astrazeneca vaccine, which i had myself on sunday, far outweigh any side—effects. t will]! outweigh any side-effects. i will come to you _ outweigh any side-effects. i will come to you about _ outweigh any side-effects. i will

about that in a moment. you mentioned those two bodies, the who and the european medicines agency. we understand they will meet later today to further look at it. both of them have made it quite clear from their perspective it is safe. what sort of uptake a it a case of providing clarity? thea;r safe. what sort of uptake a it a case of providing clarity? they will be analysing _ case of providing clarity? they will be analysing individual _ case of providing clarity? they will be analysing individual case i be analysing individual case reports. what started it was the death of a woman in austria. they will be analysing those to see whether there could be some very, very rare side effect and rare form of blood clot that this could trigger. all the evidence so far suggests that is not the case. i think it is highly likely that after a temporary pause, the vaccination programmes will be restarted. you have to remember, the astrazeneca vaccine is the workhorse for one... one of the workhorse vaccines for the world. astrazeneca is not making any profit out of it and is scheduled to deliver something like 2 billion doses around the world this year alone. it is really important that public confidence worldwide is maintained in this jab. can i ask a question which is coming from a few viewers, notjust today but over the last few days in the weeks we have been talking about a vaccine? research may be on going into the long—term effects of vaccines. how much of that is going on at the moment? tt is vaccines. how much of that is going on at the moment?— on at the moment? it

onjust 50,000 worldwide, probably over that on just astrazeneca trials alone, they are all followed up for at least a year. then we have this post—market surveillance, a yellow card scheme whereby anybody who gets the jab and has any side effects can report those. they are followed up continually. there is constant monitoring. i have been looking through what they call the yellow card data, released by the medicines regulator here, and the level of side effects from clots for the astrazeneca vaccine is no higher than for the pfizer vaccine. this is all very surprising. he than for the

known some of the scientists for decades and their commitment to safety is second to none. they produced this vaccine in record time but without cutting any corners on safety. i would encourage people to follow the medical advice, which is, if you have got your appointment for yourjab, which is, if you have got your appointment foryourjab, go which is, if you have got your appointment for yourjab, go and appointment for your jab, go and have appointment for yourjab, go and have yourjab. i had a slightly sore arm yesterday but it is now. you know, no obvious side—effects as far as i am concerned. you can get back to your rigorous regime of 1000 bicep curls! i am hoping when i had the jab i can go undercover, unlike him! the events surrounding the death of sarah everard and the vigil in her memory have prompted conversations about how women feel about their safety. ellie gould was killed in 2019. brea kfast�*s tim muffett has been speaking to her friends about their loss, their lives, and how they believe education at a young age is key to driving change. ellie was lovely, she was great. i met her when i went to sixth form, the first day of school. eddie gould was murdered by her former boyfriend in 2019. for herfriend harriet, recent events have been hard to bear. the past few days have been really challenging. they definitely bring back a lot of memories and emotions from when we lost ellie. what kind of conversations have you been having with your friends? we've had lots of conversations about it. i think they differ between the people, really. talking to my male friends, they want to learn about what i have to say about it, or they want to learn about my experiences and what i go through day to day because they can't understand it. they don't go through it themselves. hearing that it happened to someone else is so... it's so sad, and i hope people can step back and think, "it could be me, it could be my mum, it could be my sister, it could be anyone." these conversations are so important. following the death of sarah everard, they're the sort of conversations that are taking place amongst friends and within families across the country. for ellie's friends, those conversations have been especially poignant and, at times, impassioned. we're still in a situation where women are dying weekly because of men. i think there comes a time where you need to look at the source of the problem and men need to change. it has obviously been devastating seeing the family having to go through something very similar to what we went through. for some, this is a chance to reflect on other types of unacceptable behaviour by some men towards women. a lot of the time, men like to get defensive when women are expressing their fears and thoughts on men. for others, there is a risk that men who have done nothing wrong are also being blamed. we understand it is not all men. when we say all men, it is because we don't have time to pick and choose what man is going to do something to us when we are walking down the street. we don't have time to think, "is this a good person or is it a bad person? am i going to get assaulted or am i not?" we just react in that situation. we understand it's not all men but it's too many men for us to be able to differentiate. it is not uncomfortable, not for me at least _ it is not uncomfortable, not for me at least to — it is not uncomfortable, not for me at least to talk— it is not uncomfortable, not for me at least to talk about. _ because, at the end of the day, from what we've seen, - men are the ones causing this issue a large proportion of the time. i and so, i think, we do need to address it at the source. | they should be accountable for actions. wejust they should be accountable for actions. we just want men to be they should be accountable for actions. wejust want men to be more aware. thankfully, very few people will ever experience the pain this group of friends have gone through. many of us are having similar conversations. tim muffett, bbc news. we are going to pick up some of the thoughts brought up in that report. as well as prompting discussions about how women are protected by the law, questions have also been raised around how issues surrounding women's safety are taught in schools. we'rejoined now byjenny barksfield from the pshe association and drjane krishnadas, who's a senior law lecturer at keele university. morning to you. thank you for joining us. i'm not sure how much of that report you are able to hear. it was interesting hearing those young people talking about their conversations they are having. i know you are dealing with this, particularly in schools. what is your priority? what are you trying to teach young people in schools? it is important to say this starts from the beginning. obviously, in the wake of a terrible event like this, it is important schools provide pastoral support to talk about what happened. np hse education, where relationships education is compulsory, we start from primary actually. it is about laying foundations are learning about concepts like healthy and respectful relationships and recognising when a relationships and recognising when a relationship is not healthy or respectful and consent. at primary we lay the foundations by teaching things like asking permission before you take a toy and your rights do not give permission for something that makes you feel uncomfortable. that builds up year on year. in secondary, we are developing learning about gender stereotyping and how that can lead to nonconsensual behaviours. and more complex understanding of the concept of consent, of recognising unhealthy relationship behaviours and managing those, and how to seek help. it is important this is not about... it is not about putting on a one—off lesson on how to walk home safely. obviously, we would teach some personal safety strategies but it is certainly not about victim blaming, it is not about teaching young people to keep themselves safe, it is about educating all young people to be respectful of relationships, to be respectful of relationships, to recognise kind of legal and moral responsibility on the person seeking consent, not the person whose consent, not the person whose consent is being sought. as i say, that begins from the beginning of primary school and builds up bit by bit as students get older. obviously, the death of sarah everard has brought this into quite sharp focus in parliament is discussing these issues at the moment with the latest crime and policing bill. iwonder moment with the latest crime and policing bill. i wonder how much of theissue policing bill. i wonder how much of the issue is, maybe from women in particular, a lack of trust and the justice item at the moment. absolutely. at the moment, it is as if the prime minister has had a light bulb moment when trying to invest in street lights. clearly it is much more deep. we have had a lasting commitment since 1986 when we signed up to actually implement rights for women in our own legislation. it is only since recently we have had the domestic abuse bill going through, which is taking considerable time. now we have this new policing act. on the one hand it proposes to provide more technical support for criminal prosecutions but in actual fact, what we find is the criminaljustice itself is a structure which makes it difficult to listen to the subjective experience of women and for women to give evidence in those circumstances. we for women to give evidence in those circumstances-_ circumstances. we talked, specifically _ circumstances. we talked, specifically dominic - circumstances. we talked, specifically dominic raab i circumstances. we talked, i

think at the moment, the survivor, the victim survivor is a witness in proceedings. what we find is the way the structure of the criminal justice process goes, we have to prove evidence beyond reasonable doubt as if it were any other offence. in actualfact, giving evidence in proceedings with regard to rape, we have got to remember the impact of the rape on the victim. memory loss, getting confused, not knowing exactly what happened when. there are many concerns which make it extremely difficult for a witness to be able to prove under the standard conditions of reasonable doubt, which is why sexual violence services like the independent sexual advisor, is critical in being able to support women going through the process. to support women going through the rocess. , , to support

education as well. a lot of women are sharing their personal stories and fears. one quote, which i am sure many women will have seen doing the rounds, protect your daughters can educate your sons. protect your daughters can educate yoursons. how protect your daughters can educate your sons. how much for the future and success of this rest on education in the school setting but at home as well? irate education in the school setting but at home as well?— education in the school setting but at home as well? we always say good p hse education _ at home as well? we always say good p hse education is _ at home as well? we always say good p hse education is a _ at home as well? we always say good p hse education is a partnership - p hse education is a partnership with parents. parents are on the whole very supportive. in school, the onus of the school is on communication with parents and how it is taught and encouraging parents to pick up on the messages and reinforce them at home. children spend more of their lives at home than they do in school. we do what we can in school. it works most effectively when parents are reinforcing those messages at home and their conversations. not in a way that... it is not about scaring young people and making young women in particular to scared to go out. it is about educating from early childhood, as i say, in respectful relationships and consent and recognising unhealthy relationship behaviours. absolutely, teaching about seeking consent rather than keeping yourself safe from someone. that's where our focus needs to be. thank you. just one more point from you. with regard, for example, street harassment, would there be laws that might be able to help with that and are they necessary? i laws that might be able to help with that and are they necessary?- that and are they necessary? i think there could — that and are they necessary? i think there could be _ that and are they necessary? i think there could be laws _ that and

there could be laws in relation to street harassment. we need to go back to the fact that 90% of rapes are taking place by somebody you know. i think the real concern in all of this and listening tojenny�*s points is a difficulty in sexual violence is around silence. the key quote about, i used silent or are you being silenced? the fact that women have not been able to express opinions in the public space and the recent bill that has taken place, is a moment where women's voices from women broadly are being silenced. this is precisely, when we look at women's engagement in the public sphere, these are the underlying difficulties from primary school into civil society.— into civil society. interesting to have this discussion _ into civil society. interesting to have this discussion

patrol in bars and nightclubs to protect women from what a called predatory offenders. officers will look at identifing those acting suspiciously when the night time economy restarts — possibly within weeks. extra cash for improved street lighting and more cctv has also been promised by the task force chaired by the prime minister. it follows the murder of sarah everard, who went missing in south london two weeks ago. and in connection to that case, a metropolitan police officer involved in the search for ms everard has been removed from duties for allegedly sharing an inappropriate graphic. scotland yard said the image was shared on social media, and was reported by a number of officers who were concerned by its content. the pc involved will still work in what's called a non—public facing role, but has been referred to the police watchdog. the contents of the graphic have not been disclosed. the homeless charity shelter says around 20% of adult londoners are now more worried about becoming homeless, due to the coronavirus pandemic. following a survey, the charity estimates that more than 10% of adults have — in the past year — cut back on food or skipped meals to pay their rent or mortgage. the government says households have been at the heart of decision—making — throughout the pandemic. before the travel, a reminder that the advice from the government is still to stay home unless yourjourney is essential and you are allowed to make it. if you are, this is what the tube board looks like. the hammersmith & city line has minor delays due to train cancellations. on the roads, there are severe delays on the north circular, with queues back to hanger lane. it's due to a burst water main at chiswick. in east london, busier than usual on the a13 in to town — the exit slip at lodge avenue is closed by the police adding to the usual delays. now the weather with kate kinsella. good morning. it's a rather grey, cloudy start this morning. we've got some outbreaks of rain as well, and it looks like it's going to stay largely cloudy throughout. now, the wind is light first thing. it will strengthen into the afternoon. high pressure still in charge, but a couple of fronts still moving through, a warm front, followed by a cold front. so that's what's bringing these outbreaks of rain. some dry spells between them. through the afternoon, gradually those fronts sinking south. so the cloud could potentially clear the further north you are. temperatures are feeling very mild despite that strengthening wind. we're looking at a maximum of 1a celsius this afternoon. overnight tonight, some clear spells. chilly in one or two spots. cloud feeding into the east. it is thick enough to produce the odd spot of rain, but nothing more significant. the minimum temperature between three and five celsius. some bright spells at first tomorrow, but again, the cloud will start to feed in from the east. thick enough to produce the odd spot of rain through tomorrow. it gets a little bit chilly on thursday. we pick up a north easterly breeze. i'm back with the latest from the bbc london newsroom in half an hour. hello, this is breakfast with louise minchin and dan walker. morning live is on bbc one at 9.15. let's find out what's on today's programme with kym and gethin. coming up on morning live today, as the prime minister vows to make sure women feel heard when they raise concerns about their safety, we find out what you think must be done to make britain's streets feel safer. and dr punam tells us why for the one in

clever cash tips that will boost your bank account and could help you save more money. also coming up, 26 million of us have chosen to take a dna test, but what can they actually tell us? we discover how one of the uk's leading geneticists is teaming up with journalist stacey dooley to unlock some of the mysteries hidden in our dna. and stacey's partner kevin clifton is in the studio this morning. a year after theatres closed their curtains due to covid, the former strictly pro is returning to the stage for a unique star—studded variety show. he'll also be dusting off his dancing shoes to help us learn the final of the red nose day treat people with kindness challenge. at home protecting mummy. but for alfie, arthur and leo, it's complicated. the government is expected to end shielding at the end of march. but will that be enough to give parents the confidence to send their vulnerable children back into class? i think i'd feel a bit more relieved once the vaccine comes out for the children. the first uk study to assess the safety of a covid vaccine for kids only started two weeks ago. it's been a struggle for so many, but there's been joy too. one of the joys of this, erm, this
