big crowd outside, people took their need,it big crowd outside, people took their need, it is opened and now the first witness is now giving evidence? that is riuht. witness is now giving evidence? that is right- really _ witness is now giving evidence? that is right- really a _ witness is now giving evidence? twat is right. really a hugely anticipated event this trial. really one of the trials of recent decades and after three weeks ofjury selection, the prosecution and the defence gave their opening statements this morning and we started to hear from witnesses. the first witness, a dispatcher, a 911 dispatcher, an emergency dispatcher, he was questioned about her role and about taking that call on that day and witnessing what was unfolding at the corner of chicago avenue and 38 here in minneapolis. here is my colleague looking at the events of the first day of this trial. this marks the start of what will be an emotional and fraught few weeks for the family of george floyd. but the remainders have, of course, never gone away of the way he died. we need justice. nothing throughout this whole trial, there's one word that you will hear me and my family say a lot, justice. somebody needs to be held accountable. do you swear or affirm that... the outrage the case sparked became an examination of systemic racism in the us, but prosecution lawyers started by bringing back the focus to the man seen here on the right. this case is about mr derek chauvin and not about any of those men and women and is not about all policing at all. and this case is not about split—second decision making. in nine minutes and 29 seconds, there are 479 seconds, not a split—second among them. it is rare for police officers in the us to be prosecuted for murder, and convictions are almost unheard of. we have faith, but faith has shown not to be a good predictor in all cases in america. so what will be the former police officer's defence? i think the defence's main arguments are going to focus around _ whether or not chauvin actually caused his death. _ that is an argument that he would have died anyway? right, right. yeah, and i think, well... that, for a lot of people who saw the video, will sound ludicrous, frankly. well, the video isn't the whole story. - it's a piece of the story. and that is what the jury will have to decide. - these protests outside the courthouse are a reminder of the strength of feeling there was last summer, notjust here, but all over the world. but what this case, one of the most important in recent us history, will come down to, of course, is the opinion of 12 jurors and there, there are no guarantees. aleem maqbool, bbc news, in minneapolis. gary, we're going to go to hear the evidence live in a moment, butjust a few question still outstanding. i mean, do we know if chauvin himself is going to be taking the stand? we don't is going to be taking the stand? - don't know that. we don't know at this stage what the defence have decided to do on that particular school. i imagine they won't necessarily have made up their mind. they want to see how things go, potentially. just like on that particular score. that would be a huge moment in this trial if he did decide to do that. it is a very high—stakes gamble, often, for the defence to do that and put them in client on the stand. bear in mind it is up to the prosecution to prove beyond reasonable doubt that derek chauvin is guilty, he is innocent until that takes place, so, in a sense, the prosecution have done theirjob there will be no reason for the defence to call their own clients so that is one thing we don't know. we also don't know, ten, the extent to which both sides will really talk about the issue of race in this case, to what extent they will highlight the issue of race because, of course, the country and the rest of the world sees this trial as being about race and race in america where as in the narrow croakfor in america where as in the narrow croak for confines of the legal process here this is a murder trial. —— well as in the narrow confines of the legal process this is a murder trial. we are now going live to wear the lead defence counsel is speaking now. let's go over to hennepin county in minneapolis to the courthouse where the trial of derek chauvin is taking place, and let's listen in. and itjust depends on the circumstances and situation, right?

we're pleased to be able to have some measure of relaxation today. it is important, it is valuable. i know it will be prized by people. but also very important to stress that we are continuing to be cautious. the main thing we're concerned about is the risk of importing into the uk variants which could have a reduced effectiveness on the vaccines we're currently using. now, in the long term, there would be ways around that, but in the short term, that is the principal thing that is driving concerns about border issues at this stage. fresh air dilutes the virus _ particles and can blow them away... a government advert reminds people that meeting outdoors is less risky than in their homes. hands, face, space and fresh air. and labour urged ministers not to drop their guard. it's good we've got to this stage of lifting some of the restrictions. we've got to be cautious about it. and i think the single biggest risk is, of course, what we're seeing happening in other countries, where the numbers are still going up. the number of daily reported cases was coming down, but it's been fairly stable for the last few weeks, between 5,000 and 6,000 on the seven—day rolling average. but the number of daily hospital admissions with covid is falling steadily — it's down to around a few hundred a day. health officials say fewer people are getting seriously ill with covid, and the vaccine is having an impact. from ice hockey and rock concerts to communityjabs, the sse arena in belfast has opened as a mass vaccination centre. ministers said it was a significant milestone. in northern ireland, from thursday, outdoor sports will resume and six people can meet in private gardens. some beaches in wales were busy over the weekend, with travel restrictions lifted. outdoor sports for under—18s and meetings of up to six people outside are permitted. scotland's stay—at—home message changes to stay local on friday — each nation moving at its own pace out of lockdown. hugh pym, bbc news. let's take a look at the latest government figures. there were a,65a new coronavirus infections recorded in the latest 2a—hour period. on average, 5,257 new cases were reported per day in the last week. 23 deaths were reported in the latest 2a—hour period — that's people who died within 28 days of a positive covid—i9 test and is usually lower on a monday. on average in the past week, 63 deaths were announced every day. the total number is now 126,615. as for vaccinations, 293,5a2 people have had their first dose of a covid vaccine in the latest 2a—hour period, bringing the total to 30,aaa,829. 3,67a,266 people have had both doses of the vaccine. those of the latest figures. quite a lot of you have been asking specific questions, so it's now time for your questions answered. you've been sending us your questions on coronavirus and lockdown rules across the uk. here to try and answer some of them is emeritus professor at the chinese university of hong kong, professor sian griffiths and dr bharat pankhania from the university of exeter medical school. welcome to you both. good to have you back on. shall we start with this one?

"i'm aware that some rules are changing, so here's my question, my son lives in bradford and i'm hoping to meet up with him and his family on good friday. i live alone so i believe that i can form a support bubble for one household. anotherfamily is hoping tojoin us, so my question is would that be allowed under the current coronavirus rules?" l find current coronavirus rules?" i find this a bit tricky _ current coronavirus rules?" i find this a bit tricky because - current coronavirus rules?" i find this a bit tricky because the - current coronavirus rules?" illf�*ui this a bit tricky because the idea of the bubble is support, and i don't think you can use the bubble for that day. it needs to be brought through, you have to decide if there are other bubbles within the family. so is not straightforward answered. the issue about meeting another family in the garden if you are not in a bubble is six to view, but it could be two households if you were included. i think it's really up to you do you decide about the nature of the bubble with your son. thea;t of the bubble with your son. they also haven't _ of the bubble with your son. they also haven't met _ of the bubble with your son. they also haven't met before - of the bubble with your son. they also haven't met before and perhaps use that as a support bubble before. your thoughts, use that as a support bubble before. yourthoughts, doctor use that as a support bubble before. your thoughts, doctor pankhani. use that as a support bubble before. yourthoughts, doctor pankhani. l yourthoughts, doctor pankhani. i personally think this is not a bubble _ personally think this is not a bubble. we need that very clear message — bubble. we need that very clear message that a gentleman from middlesborough cannot go to bradford and create a bubble, which then is extended — and create a bubble, which then is extended to another household and then the _ extended to another household and then the two so—called bubbles or households meet. i don't think so because _ households meet. i don't think so because a — households meet. i don't think so because a bubble's definition is some _ because a bubble's definition is some arrangement whereby the two are supporting _ some arrangement whereby the two are supporting each other and not interacting with anybody else. therefore to go from middlesborough to bradford and say this is my new bubble. _ to bradford and say this is my new bubble. it's— to bradford and say this is my new bubble, it's at bestjust to bradford and say this is my new bubble, it's at best just a temporary bubble so it doesn't fultil— temporary bubble so it doesn't fulfil the — temporary bubble so it doesn't fulfil the definition of a bubble. | fulfil the definition of a bubble. suppose fulfil the definition of a bubble. i suppose the problem is that some people will gain the rules, what they? you are both on to describe specifically what the rules are, although as we've seen, there are some great areas —— grey areas. this is from martina.

a lot of these people or young boys don't understand that they actually are doing sexual harassment. they might think it is jokes and banter, all these kind of words. it is so much easier putting out a tweet to say this doesn't apply to me, hashtag not all men, then it is to engage with meaningful conversation that is happening. this woman has a teenage son at one of these because that has been named. this woman has a teenage son at one of these schools that has been named. the buck stops with me as a parent, |and what our kids will do eventually| i will be the values that they take . away from us, from our family, from away from us, from their family, from their parents, where they grow up, where they learn from exhibitedl behaviours and a lot . of stuff that isn't said. so do you think the parents need to take more responsibility than the schools? we as parents cannot just delegate and outsource our kids' values, - and the way they behave and code of conduct. - labour is calling for an enquiry. a police helpline is being set up. it's clear what some are calling a rate culture in schools will no a rape culture in schools will no longer be tolerated. lucy manning, bbc news. we're just getting news from new york. regarding the trial coming up injuly of ghislaine maxwell, the daughter of robert maxwell. us prosecutors have just expanded their criminal case against ghislaine maxwell with a new indictment, adding another charge now of sex trafficking conspiracy and sex trafficking conspiracy and sex trafficking of a minor. ghislaine maxwell, former girlfriend of the late financerjeffrey epstein, now faces eight counts and accuses her of a navy owing his sexual misconduct as perjulie —— he is enabling. —— perjury. the giant ship that has blocked the suez canal for nearly a week has been finally freed. 400 metres long and weighed down with 18,000 containers, the ever given was wedged across one of the world's busiest shipping routes. it took 13 tugs and the removal of tens of thousands of tonnes of sand to free her. 0ur global trade correspondent dharshini david reports. in the last few minutes, the authorities say if the pace continues, the backlog could be cleared within three and a half days. for six days, it has gripped and confounded the world, but the bottleneck sealing one of the busiest shipping lanes has been uncorked. the ever given, owned by company evergreen, is finally on the move thanks to a fleet of tug boats, diggers and an exceptionally high tide. moving the ship was never going to be easy. the iso—year—old canal is less than 300 metres wide. by contrast, the mega ship is 400 metres long, and 20 times heavier than the eiffel tower. almost 30,000 cubic metres of mud have had to be shifted. also shifting the costs. carrying 20,000 containers, the ever given is the answer to our growing shopping lists. a similar number of ships go down the canal as did a0 years ago, but now they're carrying more than three times as much. around 52 go through everyday, accounting for around i2%, or £7 billion, of global trade. now, behind the ever given, there have been than 300 vessels there have been more than 300 vessels queueing, their cargo everything from food to medicine to livestock and cars. they too may have more trouble on the horizon. there is a large backlog of vessels that are waiting to go through the canal from both sides, and i think even operating at full capacity, it's going to take probably several weeks to get back to normal. and in the meantime, of course, the vessels that are starting off that were due to travel through the canal at the moment will continue to be diverted. the ever given and its cargo was due to arrive in felixstowe next week, that its customers and many other still await an edta. but its customers and many other still await an eta. we have six containers on the sea on the wrong side of the suez canal, and the reality, we are a fun gift and the reality, we're a fun gift business, which means our product isn't critical, but there's a lot of critical products and essentials on those vessels. but how to prevent a repeat of this disruption? analysts say the egyptian authorities will be looking closely. it's a major artery for the world so none of us wants to see thisj happening again, so anything that can be done to create a safe - environment for this| i think will be looked at and dealt with in due course. a pandemic, changes due to brexit, rising shipping costs and now this. the trade that propels jobs and profits has faced fierce headwinds. they will be awhile before it gets back on course. it will be awhile before it gets back on course. dharshini david, bbc news. things are on the move again. some weather with stav. hi there. it's turning much colder by the end of this week. for all areas, the return to overnight frosts, and for the easter weekend we could even see some wintry showers in places. to start this week, though, it's going to be very warm — unseasonably warm — across parts of england and wales. lots of sunshine but very wet for the north—west of scotland, thanks to this weather front, which will be hanging around through tonight and also into tuesday. quite a bit of cloud for scotland and nothern ireland. just a little bit of cloud here and there for northern england, but further south clear skies, slightly lighter winds, so it's going to be chilly in a few spots, a touch of frost, maybe some mist too, less cold further north because of the cloud, the wind and the rain. so, again, for tuesday, similar story. it's a chilly start across england and wales with lots of sunshine, and then it turns very warm into the afternoon, whereas further north there will be more cloud around, and still very wet for the north—west corner of scotland. given some sunshine, we could see the high teens for eastern scotland, but 22 or 23 could be the high across central, southern and eastern england. it does start to turn colder, though, as we reach the end of the week, with a return to overnight frosts. this is bbc news. the impact of george floyd's death was momentous. the consequences, yet to be determined — until now. it all boils down to this — one court room, ilijurors, and two very different sides of the same story. a jury of derek chauvin's peers will decide whether the police officer's actions in the final minutes of george floyd's life make him a murderer. the two sides laid out their cases. you'll hear it and you'll see at the same time while he is crying out mr chauvin never moves. the knee remains on his neck. sunglasses remain undisturbed on his head and itjust goes on. derek chauvin did exactly what he had been trained to do. the use of force is not attractive, but it is a
