Mastermind champion lasted 28 years. The new presenter, a Tv Journalist and presenter by the name of clive myrie, may have to ask a lot of questions before this record is broken again. David silitto, Bbc News. Now live time for a look at the weather heres louise lear. No lie this is a familiar sight for april, no lie this is a familiar sight forapril, despite no lie this is a familiar sight for april, despite some frosty starts. There is a change in the forecast, for the first time this month i can use the phrase april showers, this Frontal System is bringing welcome showers across the north of the country, so we have weather pictures like this one just a few hours ago in dunbar. You can see the extent of the cloud and showers coming in off the North Sea, somejesting further showers coming in off the North Sea, some jesting further west into northern ireland, North West England and North Wales this afternoon. The best sunshine across the South Coast and the South East of england. We keep the showers through the afternoon and maybe even the ultra rumble of thunder. Obviously where we see the best of the sunshine, the best of the warmth, 16 degrees, but with a nagging North Easterly breeze, temperatures struggling into double figures, seven to nine celsius. The Frontal System will sink steadily thousands west, bringing cloud across northern england, wales and the midlands too. Clearer skies further north, that is where we see the lowest values, but even by April Standards these are pretty good, three to 7 degrees. Tomorrow morning the Frontal System are still dire, the isobars are opening so there will be less of a breeze across scotland that the showers may merge together for longer spells of rain across central and southern england and wales and along the South West, so heavy at best here, probably welcome news for many. Clearer skies, some sunshine for northern england, scotland and northern ireland. If you catch a Shower It will be slow moving. Temperatures of eight to 12 degrees, maybe 1a in the 30s but not for long. The mild Air Moves into the continent again, and we are back into the Cooler Airfor us continent again, and we are back into the Cooler Air for us all. With lighter winds, into the Cooler Air for us all. With lighterwinds, i into the Cooler Air for us all. With lighter winds, i cant believe i am saying this for The End of april, it could mean a return to night time frost. Eastern areas will always keep the cooler feel with showers likely, west is best but even then, temperatures below average. Thank you, louise. Thats it, so goodbye from me.

Chelsea boss Thomas Tuchel naturally disagrees with that sort of punishment. We deserve to be in the semifinal like Real Madrid deserve like Real Madrid deserve to be in the semifinal, and we do not deserve it because of political decisions because of our logo. We deserve it because we came a long way. Of course we deserve to play a semifinal and if problems exist on a sports political level, then it has to be solved on this level.

One aspect is that it obviously gets people, like i said staying indoors, something to look forward to watching the ipl games. I think the Ipl Continuing will be good to get control but the only reason that it may stop is if there is an outbreak amongst the other teams. And that is probably the last link we would want to see. Last thing. The Quarter Finals of the World Snooker Champioship are taking place in sheffield. Neil robertson is playing kyren wilson.

Previously that day has only been used to accommodate a backlog of matches from the first week. Thats all the sport for now. You can find more on all those stories on the Bbc Sport website. Thats bbc. Co. Uk sport. I will be back with more in about an hours time. Forces of the armed ethnic group, the Karen National Union, have attacked a myanmar Army Base in some of the biggest clashes since the Military Coup nearly three months ago. It happened close to Thailands Border with myanmar in Karen State where the karen people are a major part of the population. Our South East Asia Correspondent Jonathan Head whos in bangkok, explains what happened. There is no denying what happened because it was very visible from the thai side. That post was very isolated, it was cut off from the the rest of the Myanmar Army and the soldiers there had begun to depend on thai soldiers to leave them food, they did not have enough food, so they were very vulnerable. The Karen National Union moved in in the very early hours of this morning, around five oclock. People on the thai side heard all the gunfire and some loud explosions. It suggests there was quite a bit of fighting. Then they saw the various huts that had been put there by the burmese to accommodate their soldiers being set on fire. The thai side has confirmed that is what has happened. It looks like the knu has taken the post. But what is important is it reminds us there has been continued fighting in Karen State over the past month. Often the myanmar military, who are defending what the Karen National Unionists say are encroachments, they believe the army has expanded its footprint under the cover of a nine year old ceasefire and is trying to hold onto that and the myanmar military has been using air power, including ground attack aircraft. It has been bombing villages from the air and has been using artillery as well, with thousands of people displaced. So this is an ongoing conflict and it is linked in to the larger conflict in myanmar because the Karen National Union has been the stronger supporter among the ethnic armies of the civilian opposition. It is sheltering we think maybe 2000 people who fled from the cities, so when the myanmar military goes after them they have that in mind as well. The Usjustice Department has ordered an investigation into the louisville Police Department in kentucky, following the fatal shooting of Breonna Taylor during a Police Raid a year ago. The announcement came a week after the former Minneapolis Police Officer Derek Chauvin was found guilty of murdering george floyd, whose death sparked the widespread black Lives Matter protests last year. The us Attorney General said the investigation into the louisville police will look at whether the police behaved unconstitutionally heres the moment he made that announcement. Today, Thejustice Department is opening a civil investigation into the Louisvillejefferson County metro government and the louisville metro Police Department, to determine Whether Lmpd engages in a Pattern Or Practice of violations of the constitution or federal law. The investigation will assess Whether Lmpd engages in a Pattern Or Practice of using unreasonable force, including with respect to people involved in peaceful expressive activities. Among those countries struggling to immunise their populations is slovakia, which became the second Eu Member to order supplies of russia s Sputnik V Vaccine. However, the country s Drugs Regulator has refused to certify the jab, saying It Doesn T have enough documentation. So for the last two months it s been sitting unused on the shelves. From bratislava, Rob Cameron has more. Slovakias Vaccination Effort is proceeding slowly but surely, plagued by the same Supply Problems as the rest of europe. Which is why the then Prime Minister, seen here on the left, took matters into his own hands. Earlier this year, he secretly ordered Two Million doses of the Sputnik V Vaccine from russia without waiting for approval from the European Medicines agency. The political fallout later cost him hisjob. Translation some say that politics is more important than peoples lives. For me it is the other Way Round and if we want to solve the problem of covid we have to separate these two things, geopolitics and protecting the lives and health of the people. For now slovakias process of certifying sputnik is snarled up in bureaucracy. The president believes some local officials are deliberately dragging their feet, others say the fault is on russias site. Is on russias side. For the benefit of doubt, let say sputnik may be a good vaccine and i am just wondering why the russian authorities and the russian scientists did not cooperate with the scientist of the European Union and did not have the Vaccine Certified at the time when all the other vaccines went through the certification process. Either there is something wrong with the vaccine, or the russians are just playing games. But Slovakias Approval of sputnik could now take so long it may never even get to use the 200,000 doses it has already received. In fact, russia has asked for the consignment back. Some say all these problems could have been avoided. Our former Prime Minister never dealt with Foreign Policy as such and especially with the russian Foreign Policy. He visited moscowjust once after slovakia decided to buy this vaccine and he thought that just buying this vaccine means that everything is done and we are starting to vaccinate people. Slovakia is not the only Eu Country interested in sputnik. Several others are already in talks with moscow. But after weeks of political turmoil here some will be looking at slovakias experiment with sputnik not as an example, but as a warning. Lets return to one of our main stories. New data seen exclusively by Bbc News suggests there is a growing link between coronavirus restrictions and the Language Development of young children. The figures, from primary schools in england, were compiled during the autumn term. Ministers say £18 million is being invested in catch up programmes for early years classes. Assistant Head Teacher Victoria Day has helped us put together this short film with five tips showing how you can help your kids with their language. My Top Tips to support your children with their Communication And Language would be. Tip one have a conversation with your children about something that interests them. If they are playing, chat to them. Chatter away with them. What about you, harry . Tip two is read with them. Make the most of stories, whether its Information Books or fairy tales, because they are jam packed full of rich vocabulary which will enable your child to thrive. Tip three, is give them lots of experiences, whether its taking them to the park or into the garden, because that will give them and give you opportunities to develop their vocabulary. Because with new experiences, brings about new vocabulary. Tip four, is question. Question, comment, explain and expand their vocabulary. Oh, thats giant it looks giant. It does through your magnifying glass. I and my final tip, tip five is to sing with your children, enjoy rhymes. Because through rhyming and singing, we can develop their vocabulary. Wind the bobbin. Wind the bobbin up. Pull, pull. Clap clap clap. Lisa mcdougall is a Reception Teacher at a school in South West london. She explained how primary schools are adapting their teaching methods. Some of these children come to school already struggling with small vocabularies and english as a second language, and this Lockdown Pandemic has just exacerbated those symptoms. We have had to use our own Assessment Tool to try and gauge where the children are not to because they are not at expect lead levels for this time of the school year. Having done that, we are now saturating our environment with language, labels, reading books, Goods Language Role models, and teaching to each childs individual level and needs. Research suggests that black women face a significantly higher risk of having a miscarriage than white women. Analysis by the leading medical journal the lancet on 4. 6 million pregnancies in seven countries suggests that being black increases the risk of having a miscarriage by 43 . The report also calls for women in the uk to be given support after their first Pregnancy Loss at the moment, specialist clinics are usually only offered to women after experiencing three consecutive losses. My colleague Victoria Derbyshire spoke to nana adwoa mbeutcha, they just couldnt find the heartbeat. As it was 18 weeks, they tried to say, maybe it is a bit difficult to find at 18 weeks, would you like to come back next week . And i said no, certainly not, we need to find this heartbeat now. In The End, they sent me for a scan at the hospital later that day and confirmed that the baby had died. And how did you react to that news . I was heartbroken, it was not on my radar, i was not ill. They kept saying, did you not feel unwell, did you have any bleeding, anything, tummy ache, headaches . Absolutely nothing, i had no idea i had been walking around with a dead baby inside me. And some people may not know that when you are at 18 weeks, you actually have to give birth, you have to go through labour . Yeah. That had not occurred to me at all. People do not talk about miscarriages much, so i really had no experience of what happens when somebody has a miscarriage, and when they told me i had to go through labour, as naive as it sounds, i was so shocked. I just thought somehow the baby just kind of seeps back into my skin, i dont know, it sounds ridiculous but almost the thought of having to go through labour was worse than knowing my baby had died. With my previous pregnancies, labour is painful and horrible but you have a living baby at The End. This time i knew it would be painful and horrible and i would be presented with my baby that had died. How were you treated by Hospital Staff . By and large, the support i got whilst i was there going through the Labour And Everything was fantastic, i do have to say that. They were really caring, and the way they treated my baby with such respect blew me away. I didnt know what to expect but i know that at the time when my baby died, some people still have terminations at that stage, so i didnt expect there to be such care for my young baby, and there was, and they dressed her and took photos of her and did handprints and footprints, and it made the experience so much more bearable. And how do you react to the News Today that miscarriage rates among black women are 40 higher than among white women . It is so sad to hear that, i have heard the rates are higherfor those with underlying health conditions, i can understand that, higherfor those over 40, we can understand that for medical reasons. But higher for those who are black . Why . Why that figure . That is the question and lots more research needs to be done now the lancet has published this figure. I will bring in leanne, if i may, you experienced two miscarriages. How do you feel you were treated . I didnt really get any support and i did not feel i was cared for particularly well after both miscarriages, especially the first. It was not until i was referred to the recurrent Miscarriage Clinic and to tommys that i felt taken care of. Can you tell me about the experiences when you felt you were not taken seriously . The first miscarriage, being first time pregnant, it was really, really difficult, and when we were told there was no heartbeat my partner and i were ushered into a Side Room where pregnant women were waiting for their normal routine antenatal appointment, we had to make a decision on how to handle the loss of the baby immediately, which is difficult to take on. We were given leaflets to take home, no Bereavement Support or mental Health Support from that miscarriage and even the second one, the care was very similar. What do you think needs to change . I think every parent, no matter what stage you lose a baby, you need support, you need to follow up on the traumatic experience. I think evenjust being listened to, guided into different places, so tommys were a great resource for me and my husband, those places where you can get extra support, but just to be taken seriously after even the first miscarriage and not having to wait for three losses to be taken seriously. The civil Aviation Authority has rejected a request from Heathrow Airport limited to increase Airport Charges by around 10 . Heathrow had made the request in order to offset losses incurred because of the pandemic. The caa has, however, allowed a smaller increase in order to reopen terminals and cope with a recovery in air traffic. It will work out to around 30p per customer. Hot on the heels of the Vinyl Revival is the cassette comeback. Cassette tape sales are actually estimated to have doubled last year compared to 2019. Ian haslams been looking into the retro format� s unlikely resurrection. Music pass the dutchie by musical youth. Forget 21st century streaming. In this part of Central Manchester its all about Cassette Tapes if you can find something to play it on, that is. Pass the Dutchie Pon the left hand side. Basically, we started as a Record Label and, as a Record Label starting out, we didnt have a lot of money, so we found the best physical format was Cassette Tape and that kind of mutated and turned into a shop. I think people also like the idea that Streaming Isnt giving enough money to artists, so by having smaller artists having cassette releases they get a bit more money. I decided to seek out some old tapes at my parents house, with mixed results. This is the jam, cant go wrong with that, still good, stand by that one. This was the first album i ever got rick astley, 1987. How much would you buy that for . Damaged box. Er, damaged, ill give you a couple of quid. If it was better id give you more. Sentimental value i probably wont part with it. Then it went on to the London Boys in 1989. But should you wish to revisit questionable old musical choices, theyve got the equipment to hear it. I feel like when you own a cassette and you can listen to it many times, you really appreciate whats in the cassette and the music. I feel like that now, having rediscovered my London Boys cassette the tape revival� s certainly a curiosity. I think its quite good. I like all the record shops and Cassette Tapes, i think its really interesting. Do you remember cassettes . Yeah. Yes, yeah. I had the spice girls on cassette. Did you . S club 7. Its kind of like records, i guess. Its, like, nostalgic, as well, isnt it . Some, like me, used tapes for low Level Chart Recording piracy in the 80s. The first New Entry on this Weeks Chart is at number two rick astley, when i fall in love. Whats Number One . And for the fifth week. Sound cuts out. 0h. New entry at. Number39. See . Things like that could happen you could make mistakes taping over things. Not forgetting this. Well, weve all had this nightmare, havent we . We spend hours trying to get it in, then it go in too baggy. But its not putting off big bands from releasing cassettes. Soon as the cassette revival, big Record Labels as well, like universal records, have starting to release tape again and this is from a big Record Label its a Manchester Band called blossoms, from stockport, and theyve sent the copies. All of which has given me confidence to play that London Boys cassette one last time. Youre the love of my life. My life, my life. I wont let you go now. Ian haslam, Bbc News. The weather in a moment but first we just want to show you some incredible pictures of the first supermoon of 2021. A supermoon is a full moon that occurs when the Moons Orbit is closest to earth making it appear larger than life. This is how it appeared in istanbul on Monday Evening at dusk. These pictures show how it looked in venezuela. And this is how it appeared over New York according to nasa this Months Supermoon is set to be at peak illumination today, so if you havent caught itjust yet, theres still time. Now its time for a look at the weather with louise lear. Good afternoon. Its the 27th Of April but i cant believe this is the first time this month im using the phrase april showers. Yes, there are some with this weatherfront, slowly sinking its way south and west today. To the north of that front, we have got a few more isobars on the chart, that is where the strongest of the winds are going to be, gusts perhaps in the sharper showers of 30 to a0 mph. So we have seen some Weather Watcher pictures sent in showers. This was edinburgh just a few hours ago. And you can see how extensive the cloud and the showers are, not too intense at the moment but there is a Rash Driving in off the North Sea coast and they will filter a little bit further west. Now, there is a decent break in the clouds through bristol over towards suffolk, that is where the best of the sunshine is likely to be. Those showers continuing through this afternoon, maybe one or two heavier ones with the Odd Rumble of Thunder And Hail mix in there. So the best of the sunshine, obviously, brings the best of the warmth, 16 degrees. But on that North East exposed coast, once again, the Temperature Struggling, 7 9 celsius. These temperatures generally down on where they should be for this time of year. Now, our showers and our cloud sink their way steadily south through the night tonight. Some Clearer Skies in scotland and that is where we will see the lowest of the temperatures, but still holding up above freezing quite widely across the country. So not quite as chilly a start to wednesday morning, but once again there is going to be some cloud and some showers around. This time that front will be sitting through central and southern wales, along with the midlands and down across the South Coast. The isobars open up further north. That means that lighter winds, but that could mean that some of those Showers Mayjust linger across the far North East of scotland. So, nevertheless, it could be a little bit disappointing tomorrow and those Temperature Struggling, again for this time of year, way below par. We are going to see a maximum of 8 11; celsius. As we move out of wednesday and into thursday, we even start to lose some of that warmth into the South East corner as the colder air starts to sink its way south, so once again, the British Isles is underneath that blue, the Cooler Air mass. And that has an impact to the feel of the weather, particularly out to the east. There will be some showers, a Cool North to North Easterly breeze, meaning Temperature Struggling to get into double figures. So therefore the best of the sunshine and the best of the warmth, even though it will be a little bit disappointing, will certainly be further west. Take care. This is Bbc News. Im ben brown. The headlines at two no let up for the Prime Minister more questions over who paid to renovate his Downing Street flat. But ministers back borisjohnson. The only information i have is that the Prime Minister has paid for this, and hes made that very clear. Boris johnson has to offer a full and frank explanation. He has to be transparent. If hes got nothing to hide, he has nothing to fear. The first shipment of uk medical aid arrives in india, as Coronavirus Infections and deaths reach record highs.
