Caravans, tents and glamping with the ongoing uncertainty around foreign travel, Uk Holiday destinations are seeing huge demand for staycations this summer. Good morning, welcome to Bbc News. Final preparations are being made ahead of the Duke Of Edinburghs funeral, which will take place at st georges chapel in Windsor Tomorrow afternoon. The service for Prince Philip, who died last week at the age of 99, will be attended by 30 guests, including all his children and grandchildren, alongside personnel from the armed forces. Buckingham palace said the plans very much reflected The Dukes wishes. Charlotte wright reports. Its a funeral that will, in many ways, depart from tradition. Not least through this, the vehicle that will carry Prince Philips coffin, a modified Land Rover that The Duke himself helped design. Today, the final rehearsals for saturday will begin. Every moment meticulously planned. And while the events have been tweaked due to covid, Ceremonial Aspects will go ahead, with the procession taking the Dukes Coffin from The Castle to the chapel led by the band of the grenadier guards. Following the hearse on foot will be nine members of the royal family. In the front rank, the Princess Royal and the Prince Of Wales. Behind them, the Earl Of Wessex and the Duke Of york. And then Princes Harry and william. But the two brothers will be separated with the Princess Royals son, peter phillips, walking between them. Normally, the Family Members who hold Military Rank would be wearing military uniform, like here in 2002 at queen elizabeth, the queen mothers funeral. But in a highly unusual move, its been announced all the royals will be in civilian dress, a decision signed off by the queen. It comes after both Prince Harry and Prince Andrew have stepped back from their military patronages. Inside the chapel, the service will be attended byjust 30 people in line with the Coronavirus Restrictions. Some members of The Public have been keen to lay flowers and tributes outside. And although it has been discouraged, the bouquets have been gathered in the grounds of marlborough house, visited by the Prince Of Wales and the duchess of cornwall. But the palace is reiterating its request for people not to travel to Windsor Tomorrow and donate to a charity or leave messages in an online book of condolence instead. Charlotte wright, Bbc News. The Procession And Service will be televised, and we can bring you some of the details of what will happen. At 2. 15pm the quadrangle at The Castle will be lined by the Household Cavalry and footguards. Guests not taking part in the procession will leave Windsor Castle for the chapel. At 2. 40pm, the coffin will be placed onto the Land Rover which The Duke himself helped to design before the procession begins. The queen will follow behind in the state bentley. Around ten minutes later, the Dukes Coffin will arrive at the chapel, met by a guard of honour. A band will play the national anthem before the coffin is then carried inside. At 3pm, a Minutes Silence will be held nationwide, and the Funeral Service will begin before The Duke is later interred in the royal vault. Following the event, the royal family will continue to observe two weeks of mourning. Well we can speak now to our royal correspondent Sarah Campbell whos In Windsor for us this morning. Sara, good morning to you. Members of the royalfamily sara, good morning to you. Members of the royal family will absolutely want tomorrow the focus to be on the Duke Of Edinburgh and, of course, the queen. At the release of Information Yesterday about who would be walking wear, and beside whom, inevitably lots of speculation about that. What have royal representatives been saying about that . , � representatives been saying about that . , y representatives been saying about that . A, y that . Yeah, youre absolutely right, Eve Bod that . Yeah, youre absolutely right, everybody will that . Yeah, youre absolutely right, everybody will want that . Yeah, youre absolutely right, everybody will want the that . Yeah, youre absolutely right, everybody will want the focus that . Yeah, youre absolutely right, everybody will want the focus to that . Yeah, youre absolutely right, everybody will want the focus to be | everybody will want the focus to be on Prince Philip. He gave so many years of service to the country, and that will be the overwhelming feeling tomorrow. But you are right, if you look at the front pages today, many feature the fact that Prince Harry and Prince William will not be walking shoulder to shoulder behind the coffin as it goes through the grounds of Windsor Castle. I am sure those are headlines that the queen would rather wear and tear. As we all know, with the royal family, optics are very important, visual representations are very important. And instead of William And Harry walking next to Each Other, peter phillips, the queens grandson, will walking between them. I think after a year that we have had, which has been such a turbulent time, a lot of people would have hoped perhaps that there rifts were healing, this would suggest that maybe they are not, or at least that is the conclusion taken from these images. I think thatis taken from these images. I think that is why it is on the front pages. When a Palace Spokesman was asked about it yesterday, he said very clearly this is a funeral, and they wont be drawn into any perceptions of drama. The arrangements, he said, represents her majestys wishes. I suspect in terms of any Sort Of response, that is as much as we are going to get. Sara, tell us a little bit more about the arrangements for the funeral and how, as the palace has said, they very much reflect the Duke Of� s wishes . Said, they very much reflect the Duke Ofs wishes . Said, they very much reflect the Duke Ofs wishes . Yes, i think the more information Duke Ofs wishes . Yes, i think the more information we Duke Ofs wishes . Yes, i think the more information we hear Duke Ofs wishes . Yes, i think the more information we hear about l Duke Ofs wishes . Yes, i think the l more information we hear about the funeral, that becomes clear. I think the most striking visual image we have had so far as the picture of the modified Land Rover hearse, over a period of years modified and designed by the Duke Of Edinburgh. It was changed to make it a slightly darker green colour. The stoppers on the back to make sure the coffin went moved around, that was very top of his list in terms of design. Like i say, he very much had a hand in that. Hes chosen the music in the service, that will be sung byjust four members of a choir. I think one of the most poignant moments will be the Bugler Playing action stations, the Bugler Playing action stations, the sound played on naval warships, to take people to battle stations. A reminder that he saw service during the second world war, as part of the british navy. Lots of little reminders, throughout the service, of his life and his level of service. Of his life and his level of service of his life and his level of service. , ~ ,. Lets talk to Ian Lloyd Royal Writer and photographer whose book The Duke was released earlier this year. From your study on The Duke is a writer and photographer, what are your reflections on his personality, how he interacted with his family and members of The Public, who he met many thousands of over the years . Met many thousands of over the ears . ~. ,. ,. , years . With the family, one of the interestin years . With the family, one of the interesting things years . With the family, one of the interesting things was years . With the family, one of the interesting things was that years . With the family, one of the interesting things was that prince | interesting things was that Prince Philip was always better when the queen was around. He definitely made an effort. His prime objective, i think on royal engagements, was to make it easier, simple, straightforward for the queen as possible. If you wanted to see Prince Philip in a good mood, having the queen or another member of the royalfamily there was the queen or another member of the royal family there was good. On his own, he could be quite brisk, matter of fact, and walk straight in a building on straight out without really bothering about you, who was watching him, the press or whatever. And with The Public, well, yes, again, he made it easy for them. There is a tremendous amount of tension when the queen is around, on a royal visit. And people have been waiting for ages, they are a bit nervous and they havent seen the queen. He would Duck And Dive through the crowd, quite often selecting, and ive seen it so many times, there would be a small child squashed behind a barrier and he would himself left the child over, with flowers, and point them to the queen. The security never really quite like that, summary running around. But because Prince Philip had done it, there is Nothing Anybody could have done. So, he was great with the crowd. And he eased the tension, there was always lots of that. You could always spot where Prince Philip was because of the crowd, teachers or children, anybody from an organisation, he would be asking questions about where they are from, what class they were in and what they were studying. Always interesting to watch, really. You aint a interesting to watch, really. You paint a picture interesting to watch, really. You paint a picture very interesting to watch, really.

I think the queen was the one that was dutiful, stuck in that position where she cant always interact. Prince philip and Duck And Dive. This thing that he was two stepped behind was rubbish, he was usually several yards behind, trailing behind. I remember in a theatre, where he was about to go into a performance, having opened this data, and the manager said, you know, Prince Philip is missing. The queen said, he has probably gone through a door he shouldnt have done. Just as she said that, he emerged from a door of the other side of the theatre and walked into the auditorium, so he wasnt trailing behind like a lap dog, he was doing his own thing as he always did. ,. ,. ,. , was doing his own thing as he always did. ,. ,. ,. , did. Lots of people have said that he would have did. Lots of people have said that he would have approved did. Lots of people have said that he would have approved of did.

Do you think so too, and if so, what does that say about his sense of himself, his position, his role . Position, his role . Well, if you look back. Position, his role . Well, if you look back, he position, his role . Well, if you look back, he always position, his role . Well, if you look back, he always played i position, his role . Well, if you i look back, he always played down position, his role . Well, if you look back, he always played down The Public side of his role. He said about the early days that they were so glamorous as a couple, the adoration, you wouldnt believe it in the early 50s. He said, we could have chosen to play to the gallery, but we didnt. Meaning it is dangerous, if you want to ride on a wave of popularity, just ignore it and get on with the job. Slightly overshadowed by his uncle, he was a great showman. He didnt like to be like that himself. He wasnt at all bombastic in that way. I think he would have avoided, well, the original plans before covid, was to avoid the great ceremony, the parade through london, partly because it is not his style and partly to protect the queen. The queen has not really been seen in public, which she would have done, normally, lying in state like we had for the queen mother, or the various parades and so on, i think it is protecting the green. And it is just not his style to have a great pageantry, Massive Pageantry. A great pageantry, Massive Pageantry a great pageantry, massive aeant. ~ ,. ,. , � , pageantry.

Peter phillips. Inevitably, the media will be looking out for the dynamics between the various members of the family, that is inevitable. Clearly, they will want the focus to be on they will want the focus to be on The Duke come on remembering him. But for the media that is undoubtedly going to be a focus in those moments when we do see them more publicly . More publicly . Yes, i covered three Ro Al more publicly .

It was pretty horrible at the centre of the event, that the Bride And Groom did not get the coverage they wanted. The queen will be concerned that in the papers it is not going to be Harry And William did this, that and the other. I dont think there will be much time to interact, in a parade down The Hill they Cant Talk to Each Other because of the nature of the procession. And in the chapel, of course, the service will start immediately. There wont be many chances to interact. Certainly, they dont want that messing up the day, so to speak.

The officer screamed at him, show me your hands, adam complied, turned around, his hands were empty when he was shot in the chest. At the hands of the officer.

The government is defending the Health Secretary, Matt Hancock, after it emerged a firm he has shares in, won a contract with Nhs Wales. Official records show the Document Shredding Company was awarded the contract, which is worth £300,000, last month. A Government Spokesperson said Mr Hancock had followed the Ministerial Code and had no role in awarding the contracts. It comes as further links emerged between Westminster And Greensill capital, the collapsed lender that David Cameron lobbied Cabinet Ministers for. Lets talk to our political correspondent nick eardley. Nick what more can you tell us . How does this fit into a wider picture, these investigations going into Lobbying Contacts . It is sli. Htl into Lobbying Contacts . It is slightly different into Lobbying Contacts . It 3 slightly different from lobbying. What has emerged is that Matt Hancock owns 15 of a company called Topwood Ltd. His sister owns a much larger share in it, and is a director. Now, that company has won some nhs contracts, from Nhs Wales. That is slightly complicated, because Matt Hancock Isnt Anything to do with Nhs Wales, Nhs Wales is run by the Welsh Labour government. But there is a question over whether Matt Hancock should have declared the fact that his sister owns so much of this company when it was given approved status by the nhs a couple of years ago. Its basically in a position where it could potentially be awarded contracts by the nhs in england, although it doesnt seem that it has been so far. Now, the Government Market was saying Matt Hancock played every thing by the book, he declared the shares when he was given them as a gift, and that he had conversations with senior civil servants about potential conflicts of interests, decided that there wasnt one, and if one emerged it would be recorded in due course. But i suppose there is also this issue of the whole relationship between government, ministers and civil servants and private companies. And it does feed into this wider question being asked this week about whether the rules need tightened up, about whether there is enough of a division between the work that people do in government and potential investments or work they do for private companies. Or work they do for private companies or work they do for private com anies. , ~ ,. , or work they do for private com anies. ~ ,. Companies. 0k, thank you very much for that.

It is fairto it is fair to assume there will be extra police in areas like this over the weekend. What they dont want to see is the scenes they saw last summer, where the roads got clogged, where there were big crowds of people on the beaches by the looks. Because, of course, the restriction is still that it is a maximum of six adults, from six different households, which can mix together.

Thats all the sport for now. President biden is urging russia to work with him to ease tensions after announcing a raft of sanctions against moscow. The us leader said the latest measures were a response to russian cyber attacks and attempts to interfere in elections but said he could have gone further. Mr biden said he wanted to meet President Putin, because personal communication was essential to move forward. I was clear with President Putin that we could have gone further. But i chose not to do so, i chose to be proportionate. The united states is not looking to kick off a cycle of Escalation And Conflict with russia. We want a stable, predictable relationship. If russia continues to interfere with our democracy, im prepared to take further actions to respond. Joining us now is our diplomatic correspondent james landale. Morning to you, james. Im not sure that russia would quite see this as stick and carrot, but alongside these sanctions, President Biden is offering the prospect of talks with vladimir putin, how do you think russia is likely to respond to that . Well, russia has already said it will retaliate with some form of sanctions, they have made that very clear. I think The Americans would have factored that in. I think the question is what happens in the long run. The americans are trying to send a signal to moscow that its behaviour will have costs, that there will be consequences for interfering in elections. You know, we have got a lot of elections coming up in europe and elsewhere Around The World in the next few years, and americans are saying, if you carry on doing this, there will be a price to be paid to is why they have said, as we had in that clip there, they are trying to be proportionate. What The Americans have done is imposed a cost, quite an interesting cost, they have targeted russias sovereign debt market, in other words making it much Harderfor Russia market, in other words making it much harder for russia to market, in other words making it much Harderfor Russia to raise money on the international markets. But The Americans havent gone all The Way, they could go much further, and i think the signal is, look, The Americans have got more in their pocket. If you read The American newspapers this morning, they are criticising the biden administration for not going far enough. Much could now depend for not going far enough. Much could now depend on for not going far enough. Much could now depend on what for not going far enough. Much could now depend on what russia for not going far enough. Much could now depend on what russia does for not going far enough. Much could now depend on what russia does in i now depend on what russia does in ukraine with the russian military Build Up on the border. It is ukraine with the russian military buildup on the border. It is really interesting. Buildup on the border. It is really interesting, these buildup on the border. It is really interesting, these two buildup on the border. It is really interesting, these two things interesting, these two things happening at the same time, one of the many factors that motivated President Putin to deploy his trips to the border of ukraine was to try and deter The Americans from being too aggressive in the response to the interference in elections and the interference in elections and the cyber attack, which the russians knew was coming. But what is clear, though, is that there are an awful lot of troops and weapons on the border of ukraine at the moment, and in crimea, people are very worried about it. A wide variety of analysis is going on about exactly what russia is up to, and the motivation behind it, is it a show of force, is it something worse . But clearly that has alarmed the west, that is why President Macron is holding urgent talks in Paris Today with the Ukrainian President , Chancellor Merkel Isjoining by Ukrainian President , Chancellor Merkel is joining by video link, Ukrainian President , Chancellor Merkel Isjoining by video link, to try and work out some kind of united western response. For now, that response has been pretty, you know, robust. Europe and the united states are all on the same Hymn Sheet on this. The question here is what cost is the west prepared to impose on russia if russia did take the pretty fundamental step of deploying troops inside ukraine. And, you know, at the moment americas top general in europe said there was a low to medium risk of that, but there is clearly a risk. James, thank you very much, james landale, our diplomatic correspondent. Ukraine says russia has served notice that it will close part of the Black Sea to military vessels from other countries from next week. Ukraines Foreign Ministry called it a gross violation of the right to freedom of navigation guaranteed by the un. Later today the leaders of france, Germany And Ukraine will discuss the escalating tensions in Eastern Ukraine and the massive russian military Build Up along the border. Jonah fisher reports. These trenches are the ukrainian military� s Front Line positions in Eastern Ukraine. Now, the the russian backed forces are about 100m or so away from here. We could actually hear them a little bit earlier, Chopping Wood to burn on their fires to keep warm. Now, this Conflict Line has been pretty quiet for the last few years. Its hardly moved on the ground. But the mood here has significantly shifted over the last few weeks. And the big reason for that is that russia has deployed a large amount of both personnel and equipment on the russian side of its border with ukraine. And that has triggered fears, concerns here in ukraine, that this war, which has been pretty quiet for the last several years, may be about to enter a new phase, possibly even that russia might be considering some Sort Of invasion. Russia, for its part, has played it all down, said it is perfectly entitled to move its troops where it wishes within its own country, and that its redeployment towards the ukrainian border is part of a military exercise, and that there is nothing more sinister afoot. But the shift both in terms of the troops and in terms of whats happening on the ground has certainly got people here worried, and i think a lot of people are asking the question of, what exactly is russia up to . What exactly is it trying to achieve here . For many people living in england, this weekend could be their first chance for a getaway since last year. Thats because self contained accommodation was given the green light to reopen this week, following the latest easing of Lockdown Restrictions in the country.

The past week has been an education for many of us on colourful life of the Duke Of Edinburgh, which began nearly 100 years ago on the greek island of corfu. Ahead of his funeral at Windsor Castle tomorrow, our royal Correspondentjonny Dymond has unearthed another secret in the extraordinary Life Story of Prince Philip. From the greek island of corfu to a bland Office Block in the city of london, one of the last secrets of an extraordinary life. Here it is. This is the table. The table on which Prince Philip was born. The paperwork shows the sale of the table from the Corfu Villa to the british embassy in greece. After decades in a warehouse, it was sold to ship brokers based in london, who first used it as their Dining Table. The company that bought the table wrote to Prince Philip in the early 80s and said, we have the place where you were born. His response . His memory was a little sketchy about the event. All we can say is that, when we look at old biographies, it talks about the doctor at that time suggesting that the bed was not somehow appropriate and so that she was carried downstairs and placed on the dining room table. Which was more appropriate if rather less comfortable. Perhaps thats the case. I think it was made to be as comfortable as possible. I hope so but is there more to the table than a good polish . What makes a Dining Table the right kind of table for a princely birth . The table is, you know, Queen Anne style, as are the chairs. So, you know, if you had hypothetically a Sort Of, you know, late 18th Century Style Pedestal Dining Table, Someone Couldnt be giving birth on that but you could on this. Forgive me, why not . Why would a late 18th Century Table be a problem for giving birth . Because that theyre much less stable. Dining table, birth table, Boardroom Table as The End of the journey approaches, the very beginning is revealed. Jonny dymond, Bbc News.

Fraser will keep rolling on in 2021 until he completes his mammoth challenge. Mark ansell, Bbc News, bawtry in doncaster. Now its time for a look at the weather with nick miller. Hello. Yet another cold, frosty start this morning with another fine day following with High Pressure ruling the roost. An exception, though, whilst most will be dry, theres an atlantic Weather Front approaching northwest scotland. Here it is, and that will bring some rain into the Western Isles, maybe the far northwest of Mainland Scotland to end the day, and perhaps a few spots of rain into westernmost Counties Of Northern Ireland. Whereas elsewhere, it is High Pressure, plenty of morning sunshine, some patchy Cloud Developing. So this afternoon, a mixture of cloud and some sunny spells, the chance of an isolated shower, most staying dry. Thats the rain here edging into the Western Isles of scotland. Ahead of the arrival of any rain, an increasing southerly wind in northern ireland and scotland. Still along on the North Sea coast of england, the breeze coming in from the chilly sea, so maybe right along the coast, eight, nine degrees. Most, though, today in the range of ten to 12 degrees celsius. A few spots in northern ireland up to 13, and in Highland Scotland 15, that really will feel quite warm in the strong april sunshine. So some patchy rain in the west and far northwest of Mainland Scotland, perhaps westernmost Counties Of Northern Ireland going into tonight. That clearing away, though, More Cloud keeping the temperature above freezing here. Eastern scotland, england and wales, though, another cold, frosty night going into the weekend. With High Pressure clinging on for england and wales, a settled saturday. Weather fronts approaching northern ireland and scotland, but it looks like all were going to get out of those until very late in the Day Willjust be some cloud. But still breaking through that cloud will be sunny spells. Elsewhere, plenty of sunshine to come, some patchy clouds, so youll lose The Sunshine occasionally. But a fine day in temperatures, mainly in the range of 10 14 degrees celsius. For part two of the weekend on sunday, the Weather Fronts do make some Progress Into Scotland and northern ireland, with More Cloud around here and the chance of seeing some outbreaks of rain, especially the further west you are. Could also pick up a bit More Cloud into wales and western parts of england, whereas elsewhere, through central and eastern and southern parts of england, plenty of sunday sunshine. And without that Northeasterly Breeze hitting North Sea coasts, it will be warmer here to end the weekend, and generally across england and wales, temperatures will be a little bit higher. The Weather Front with rain across parts of scotland and northern ireland on monday fading away as it moves further south, then another area of High Pressure behind that, keeping the second half of next week dry. For everyone. Thank you very much. Good to talk to you. Good luck. This is Bbc News these are the latest headlines in the uk and Around The World.
