And, Nil Point for Great Britain At Eurovision as italy wins the big prize. Phil mickelson is eyeing a different prize he stands on the verge of Golfing History. He leads heading into the final round of the Pga Championship, and at the age of 50, could become the sports oldest major winner. Good morning. A chilly and bright start for much of the day for much of the uk. Some eastern areas keeping dry all day. I will have all the details for you here on breakfast. I will have all the details for you here on breakfast. Its sunday the 23rd of may. Our top story both the Pfizer And Astrazeneca coronavirus vaccines, the two main jabs used in the uks rollout, are highly effective against the indian variant of the disease according to a study by public Health England. The Health Secretary Matt hancock described the findings as Ground Breaking and said he was increasingly confident the government is on track for the final stage of its roadmap out of lockdown. Heres our health correspondentjim reed. In places like rochdale in greater manchester, vaccinations are now being offered to younger Age Groups. All those over 18 can get a jab is no appointment needed. All those over 18 can get a ab is no appointment needed. H all those over 18 can get a ab is no appointment needed.

Scientist think the socalled indian variant of the so called indian variant of the virus can spread more quickly so areas like this where cases are growing are being offered extra Surge Vaccinations and the first real world data shows how important that could be. An early study has found one dose of either the visor or the Astrazeneca Jab was 33 effective in stopping infection from the indian variant. It worked better against the older tent strain. A second dose boosted that protection tent strain. It narrowed the gap almost completely, bringing it in line with the more widespread tent various. Cant variant.

Right now, it is notjab should offer even stronger protection against any severe Disease And Death caused by the indian variant. Imilli Disease And Death caused by the indian variant. Disease and death caused by the indian variant. Will know that the wa out indian variant. Will know that The Way out of indian variant. Will know that The Way out of this indian variant.

Will know that The Way out of this is the vaccine and | way out of this is the vaccine and this data shows that is not Changed, thatis this data shows that is not Changed, that is the right strategy, that it makes it even more important for everybody to get the second jab. Overall, then, this study makes for reassuring reading. It is the strongest evidence yet that vaccines can beat new variants of the virus but it suggests that second dose could be key as the world heads back towards normality. The former Bbc Journalist Martin bashir has defended his controversial Panorama Interview with Princess Diana in 1995, and rejected suggestions that his actions were ultimately responsible for her death two years later. In an interview with the Sunday Times, he admitted that he was wrong to have forged Bank Statements to obtain the interview but insists it had no bearing on subsequent events. James reynolds reports. The Dyson Report showed that Martin Bashir used false statements in order to secure his interview with princes diana. Martin bashir who resigned from the bbc On Health Grounds said he is deeply sorry to Princes William and harry but he rejected the claims by the Dyson Report that he fuelled dianas. Tony hall, Martin Bashir� S Loss at the time of the 1994 interview, led an internal enquiry soon afterwards which found the journalist to be honest and honourable, but the Dyson Report said this enquiry with. As a result, Lord Hall, who left the bbc as Director General in 2020, has now stepped down as the chairman of the national gallery. In a statement, he said. Dianas brother Earl Spencer has asked the metropolitan police to look again at the circumstances of her interview with Martin Bashir. Scotland yard is looking at the investigation to see if there is any evidence to support a new criminal investigation. The current Director General of the bbc Tim Davie said the scandal leaves the corporation with much to reflect on.

The organisers of Glastonbury Festival have apologised after thousands of people who bought tickets for a live Stream Concert were unable to view the show for more than two hours. The Ticketing System was eventually abandoned altogether, and made the concert free for anyone to watch, as Colin Paterson reports. When glastonbury is disrupted, it is usually by rain and mud. Last night, the problem was internet connectivity. Live at Worthy Farm was a live stream but when it started at seven oclock, people paid £20 to pay to watch pre recorded sets, were told that their access codes were invalid. Fans said they were given up of watching recordings of Old Glastonbury � s or even switching on eurovision. Element is at the eurovision.

Colin patterson, bbc news. Staying with music but of a different kind. Italy has triumphed at this years Eurovision Song Contest in the netherlands. It was a bad year once again for the uk, as James Newman was the only act to end the night with Nil Points from both the national juries and the public. Anna holligan was watching in rotterdam.

Anna holligan, bbc news, rotterdam. Lets speak to the bbc� s Steve Holden now, who watched the night unfold in rotterdam. Steve, it was a very disappointing night for the uks entry. Yes, the dreaded Nul Points. From thejury and the yes, the dreaded Nul Points. From the jury and the public was not the second time it has happened in the 65 year history, to the uk. Inevitably, the teams behind the song, that includes the bbc, will now look at what went wrong. Was it the song itself . What didnt connect . Others will say it is all political . The truth is, after a two year break, the countries really brought their a game and the Song Selection and standard of song was so high. I will say aboutJames Newman, though, because i spent a lot of time with him filming a documentary in the months, the run up to eurovision, is he fully embraced this contest. He knew what it stood for, what it meant, didnt want to pass up on the opportunity to sing in front of 180 Million people. It isjust to sing in front of 180 Million people.

Good morning to you, yes, eventually things are to you, yes, eventually things are going to get A Little Bit better. We still have low pressure, unsettled conditions over the next few days but as we look towards The End of the month into the start of summer which is honestlyjust around the corner, things will turning warmer and drier and corner, things will turning warmer and drierand in corner, things will turning warmer and drier and in fact out there today we have got some sunshine around, particularly first thing in the east, so this is the glorious sunshine in north yorkshire, some Blue Skies around and for many a bright start to the day but a chilly one. Rain is going to be arriving, you will not be surprised to hear, from the west as we head through the day and the winds will pick up from the west because we have this area of low pressure. It is heading from the atlantic, this is the radar over the atlantic, this is the radar over the past few hours and you can see it arriving across ireland, Northern Ireland, if you show is ahead of it across Western Parts of scotland, england and wales but the band of rain will be heavy through the day, pushing across Northern Ireland into about lunchtime and The Rain quite heavy across england, wales, north West England and Western Scotland showers ahead of it. Dry weather for Eastern Scotland, gum is coast of england, towards the South East so hazy sunshine around there. Temperatures at best 13 or 14 in The Sun but 11 if you are stuck under The Rain. Winds are becoming more of a feature particularly down towards the South West later and this evening and tonight, heavy showers developing behind the band of rain as it sweeps its way eastwards. Again, quite a Cool Night, not as chilly as the one we just had, the coolest across Northern Ireland, three orfour degrees first thing. Mondays weather has low pressure in charge, sitting right across the uk so a day most of us of sunshine and scattered showers on monday and some of the showers on monday and some of the showers developing across parts of england and wales can be heavy, thundery and slow moving. Further north across scotland, more persistent rain in the North And Rain pushing into Northern Ireland and some in scotland later in the day. Some sunshine here and therefore northern england, wales perhaps in the afternoon but temperatures not great for this time of year. Tuesday, low pressure clears to the east but still near enough to bring us another day of sunshine and showers, most for scotland and Eastern England. Temperatures 14 degrees or so but Take A Look at the week ahead because things eventually are going to be turning not only drier but also A Little Bit warmer too. Salli; also A Little Bit warmer too.

Hello and welcome to the Film Review with me, mark kermode, rounding up the best movies available in cinemas and in the home. Uk cinemas reopened this week, with films that have previously been available on streaming services such as minari, mortal Kombat And Raya and The Last Dragon Playing alongside new releases like those who wish me dead. Whyd they put you in a Fire Tower . Well, imjust lucky, i guess. Angelina jolie plays Smoke Jumper hannah, Combating Forest Fires in montana. Hannah is a wild card, haunted by guilty memories of a mission in which she misjudged the wind, with grim consequences. Having been sent to spend a season alone atop a Fire Tower, her path conveniently crosses with that of a young boy, lost and On The Run after his father was targeted by sinister hit men, played by Aidan Gillen and nicholas hoult. Give � em something else to worry about. Music sting. Loosely adapted from a novel by Michael Koryta and directed by taylor sheridan, whose credits include the oscar nominated screenplay for hell or high water, this is solidly pedestrian stuff a by the numbers, Box Ticking Affair spiced up by shoot outs, Lightning Strikes and some very impressive fire scapes. We cant go through that that eats everything in its Path None of it is particularly believable, withjolie looking far too much like a Movie Star to convince as a battle scarred firefighter. Still, her character is far more convincing than the hit men, who were essentially upmarket, B Movie caricatures, killing everyone they meet whilst complaining about the scenery in entertainingly daft fashion. Hes still on duty you can try him on your radio. On the other hand, you have Medina Senghore stealing the show as the most indomitably bad assed mother to be since Francis Mcdormands marge gunderson in fargo. Since frances mcdormands marge gunderson in fargo. No masterpiece, then, but distracting popcorn fare, Tailor Made to be seen on the big screen. On the subject of indomitable women, Sigourney Weaver achieved iconic status as ripley in the alien Movies A Role which earned her an Academy Award nomination. Shes had two further oscar nods for Working Girls and gorillas in the mist, and starred in such varied fair as ghostbusters, the Ice Storm and the Cult Sci Fi spoof galaxy quest. In her new movie my New York year, from the 2014 memoir byjoanna rakoff, Weaver Plays Old School literary agent margaret, whose most high Profile Client is reclusive Catcher In The Rye authorjd salinger. Well . I like it. Really . But what do you make of it . Im not sure what you mean. Well, its not a kids book, is it . No, no. Its about kids for grown ups. Its about female friendship. But will adults buy a book about kids . Can i sell it . Into margarets agency comesjoanna, a College Grad played by once upon a time in hollywood co Star Margaret Qualley who has never read salinger but aspires to be a poet. Shes set to work dealing with salinger� s fan mail, ensuring that no one gets to the writer, while keeping an eye out for anything suspicious. Jd salinger on phone dont get stuck answering the phone, joanna youre a poet what follows is a whimsical drama in which Salinger Befriendsjoanna over the phone and encourages her to concentrate on her writing, despite margarets fierce insistence that she must never telljerry that shes a writer. There are echoes of the Master Slave Relationship at the heart of the devil wears prada, although this has none of the bite of that acerbic novel turned film. Instead, it settles for something more Twee A Nostalgic World observed with Dewy Eyed Wonder by a character who, although based on real life, never seems real. Is it on . But weaver has fun as the imperious Grande Dame who cannot abide computers and whose withering look is worth the price of admission. Its in cinemas now. A decade ago, saw 3d, the seventh film in the torture packed franchise, promised to be the final instalment. Fat chance after 2017s jigsaw, we now have a ninth movie, Portentously Entitled Spiral from the book of saw. What is that . Play me. Digitally modified v0|cez hello, detective banks. Directed by darren lynn bousman, who held episodes two, three and four, this new chapter stars chris rock, promising to do for the Saw Franchise what 48 hours did for Buddy Cop movies. Hes zeke, a Wisecracking Detective whose dad, played by samuel ljackson, was a legend in the force. I couldve killed you. Faced with a Jigsaw Style Copycat targeting the police, loner zeke, whos watching his back after turning in a dirty cop, finds himself paired with a wide eyed rookie played by max minghella. Detective banks. Zeke initially hates the rookie because, hey, thats what cliched movie cops do. But gradually, he comes to respect him because, hey, thats what cliched movie cops do. Based on a script that has been polished by rock and remember, there are some things you just Cant Polish Spiral seems to be pulling in two different directions. On the one hand, theres rock doing his Post Eddie Murphy procedural shtick, and on the other, theres the elaborate Set Pieces in which people get horribly tortured by ridiculously complicated machinery while a puppet explains the plot on a tape. Whens the last time you saw your father . The Saw Franchise may be predicated upon these Set Pieces, but it would help if they actually made sense and didnt leave you wondering a, how the killer designed, built and then set up all this machinery without anyone noticing, and b, what exactly the point of the traps is, particularly one that seems to offer the victim the choice between death and, er, death, without even the possibility of cake. Most importantly, for all its grotesquery, nothing in spiral is scary, with its Plot Twists provoking not shocks but groans. Its in cinemas now. Meanwhile, over on netflix, we have Army Of The Dead, the latest from zack snyder, who recently scored an online hit with his directors cut ofjustice league. Is there anybody else here who hasnt killed a zombie . Well, we all know the basics. Zombies, shamblers, the undead whatever you want to call them when it comes to killing them, its all about the brain. Brain. One comes at you, shoot in the brain. Its that simple. Any questions . Yes. What if i took a Big Rock and smashed it into the head . Would would that work . Best known for such comic Book Inspired Movies as 300, Watchmen And Batman v superman, snyder cut his teeth on a remake of george romeros zombie classic dawn of The Dead. In Army Of The Dead, he conjures a satirical world in which a Zombie Outbreak has been confined to the walled off environs of Las Vegas, a place thats always been hell on earth, but is now doubly so. What the. . Shh with a nuclear strike looming, muscle bound Dave Bautista leads a ragtag troop back into vegas to raid a vault in one of the casinos, and also to try to save a mother who went missing in Sin City some weeks earlier. Its not too late to go back. With so many zombie movies in the past few years, its unsurprising that Army Of The Dead of which a prequel and a spin off anime Style Series are on The Way seems so unoriginal, lifting riffs from everything from romeros movies to World War Z to return of the living dead part iii. Whats more surprising is just how much snyder and his Co Writers have pinched not only from John Carpenters escape from New York and escape from la, but also from james camerons 1986 gem aliens, which similarly spliced genres to altogether more gripping effect. Bickering squad entering a deserted area full of temporarily dormant beasties . Check. Lets remember the team. Parent Child Jeopardy Reconciliation theme . Check. Thats crossing the line. Duplicitous Company Man who cant be trusted . Check. Foolhardy return to Rescue Someone as the Clock Counts down to a Nuclear Blast . Check. The difference is that while aliens was a nail biting combination of Horror Movie and war movie, this not very humorous Horror Heist Hybrid settles for altogether more goofy splatter thrills, contempt to throw blood and entrails around without ever getting beneath content to throw blood and entrails around without ever getting beneath the surface of the story. But when it comes to snyders films, surface is everything, as is length, with Army Of The Dead clocking in at a bloated 2. 5 hours when it could have been in and out in 89 minutes. Oh, and note to Film Makers putting a Gurning Cameo by trumps former Press Secretary Sean spicer in your movie is never a good idea. Ever. Army of The Dead is on netflix now. Ill leave you with news of rare beasts, in which star of stage, Screen And Pop charts Billie Piper adds Writer Director to her cv. Speaks breathily even though i feel scared and angry, i still love and respect myself. A post fleabag Era Tale of dysfunctional male female relationships teamed with humour and a hint of horror, its an ambitious work boosted by an exceptional cast. So, why are you single, pete . I find women intolerable. Right. Piper plays mandy, a single mum living with her own mum, played by kerry fox. When mandy goes out on a date with uptight workmate pete, played by leo bill, he tells her that he finds women intolerable but he refuses to be without one something that should send her running for the hills. Instead, she embarks upon a masochistic relationship with pete while simultaneously trying to reconcile with her selfish father, played by david thewlis, and to raise her anxiously twitchy son. Every wife, respect your husband there are stylistic echoes of Craig Robertss eternal beauty, in Which Piper and thewlis co starred, both in the mix of Tragedy And Comedy and in the heightened theatrical reality which occasionally tips over into fantasy. I want a man at times, this Super Stylised Performative approach can seem distracting, and some audiences will struggle to engage with the characters, but the examination of modern Gender Roles is intriguing, entertaining and honest. And while mandy may be an uncertain character riddled with self doubt, Pipers Direction is bold and confident, suggesting that a future career behind the camera awaits. Rare beasts is in cinemas and online now. Thats it for this week. Thanks for watching the Film Review. Stay safe, and ill see you next week. Howd you get in here . Are you forgetting who the landlord is . Yeah, but that doesnt give you the right to just walk in here anytime you want. Renters got rights. You start paying some rent, you can get some rights. Hello, this is breakfast with Ben Thompson and sally nugent. Is just after isjust after 6 30am. Is just after 6 30am. John is with us with all the sport this morning. Phil mickelson i think making everything out of this Experience Count and it will be some achievement if he wins the us Pga Championship because he will be the oldest us major winner going into the final day. What a day ahead for Phil Mickelson as the amercian looks to make Golfing History and become the oldest major winner. He takes a one Shot Lead going into the final round at kiawah island. His third round included this birdie on the 10th, which at that stage had mickelson five shots clear. A tricky end saw his advantage cut to just one, but lets not forget mickelson who won the last of his majors eight years ago, is ranked down at 115th in the world, and will turn 51 next month. I think that because i feel or believe that i am playing really well and i have an opportunity to content for a major championship on sunday and im having so much fun, that it sunday and im having so much fun, Thatitis Sunday and im having so much fun, that it is easier to stay in the present and not get ahead of myself and so i think that is a big part of it. A huge amount at stake on the final day of the Premier League Season and while the Title And Relegation have been decided, its crucial for the three teams, chelsea, Liverpool And Leicester who all vying for the last two Champions League places. As it is for the Fans Wholl be back in to watch. As Ben Croucher can tell us. Phones at the ready, this is the day for constant communication and careful calculation.

Yellow crazy Ants Spray Acid when theyre aggravated and theyre responsible for devastating populations of frogs, of lizards and ground nesting birds in australia. Now the authorities there have a secret weapon to help sniff out the ants and eradicate them a Detection Dog called fury. We can speak to Gareth Humphreys, Whos Part of the team tackling the ants at the wet Tropics Management Authority in queensland. Thank you forjoining us. Tell us more about these ants. Thea;r thank you forjoining us. Tell us more about these ants. They are from South East asia more about these ants. They are from South East asia and more about these ants. They are from South East asia and first more about these ants. They are from South East asia and first turned more about these ants. They are from South East asia and first turned up South East asia and first turned up in queensland in 2001 and over the next few years, they spread throughout far North Queensland. They do a large amount of damage to native wildlife, they start with the other invertebrates in systems. Other ants, earthworms, things like that but they eventually start working their way up the Food Chain and so they start taking at the frogs, the geckos and ground nesting birds. When chicks hatch, they start attacking them and usually they push out all the other native ants in the system and come to completely dominate the ecosystem. So system and come to completely dominate the ecosystem. So you can see why you dominate the ecosystem. So you can see why you would dominate the ecosystem. So you can see why you would want dominate the ecosystem. So you can see why you would want to dominate the ecosystem. So you can see why you would want to control.

When we go out, we survey for ants, We Lay Lewis down on the ground which is a measure of Cat Food and jam so it gives Sugar And Proteins are ants will come in for a feed and we can have a look at an area and say right, there is ants here, or not. But when we put a lot of effort in and get them down to very, very low numbers, the probability of us actually detecting them through that method becomes much reduced so that is where fury comes in and she is able to detect ants at far fewer numbers than we are able to using other techniques and so we can begin to really target out our work and our treatments on the last remaining patches. Our treatments on the last remaining atches. �. ,. , , patches. And how crucial is fury then in a speeding patches. And how crucial is fury then in a Speeding Up patches. And how crucial is fury then in a Speeding Up the patches. And how crucial is fury i then in a Speeding Up the process . Because it is such a long process. Has this help you do a lot more in a much shorter period of time . Absolutely. When we surveyed with people, typically to get enough confidence that the ants have gone and that we have eradicated, it will take somewhere around ten surveys. With fury, her probability of detection is much higher, so 2 three surveys will do the same job. So she speed things up a great deal. Is there a risk that fury could ever be hurt by the ants .

When the ants are in very high numbers, it is a definite possibility so when they spray acid, it is a Defence Mechanism and in very large numbers it can be quite potent. However, she is not particularly useful for working in large numbers because she is surrounded by them and the odour is everywhere. When they are in very low numbers, the amount of acid that is being sprayed is very low and so it is not so much of an issue then. I was reading that actually even though they are so small, quite clearly, they are very easy to spread and they are able to spread in very simple ways so people not disposing of Garden Waste properly or selling pot plants, for example. Thats correct. Left to their own devices, they dont actually travel that much, only 50 100 metres a year. It is when they are in materials that are moved around so as you say a Garden Waste and pot plants, anything that they can nest in. When we get them into creek systems, they can nest in hollow logs and things and when we get a flood, here in far North Queensland we have our pronounced wet and dry season so we will get creeks that i dry for most of the year suddenly come to life and a lot of water flows through to they are in a hollow log, they can be washed down the stream quite a distance.

It is, yes, we have some more Rain On the cards but it is not right, particularly if you live in the east because you have scenes like this, with getting out early for. This is the Mornings Picture in norfolk. Blue skies. Some will keep The Sunshine for quite a good part of the day but there is Rain On The Way, working its way slowly west to east across the uk through the course of the day. I day of mixed fortunes pending on where you are. Quite chilly and bright therefore most of us but low pressure is on its way, not far away, moving in from the atlantic with quite a lot of isobars around the area of low pressure so it will not only turn weather but windy as well. The rain has already arrived across parts of Northern Ireland, a few showers in the western fringes of britain so The Rain continues its progress slowly eastwards. Some drier, Brighterweather Progress slowly eastwards. Some drier, brighter Weather Lusting for a good part of the day for Eastern Scotland right down towards East Anglia and the South East of england when you do get these outbreaks of rain pushing into wales and south West England, it will be heavy with some squally winds associated with some squally winds associated with the downpours and heavy showers for Northern Ireland later in the afternoon. If you have The Rain under the cloud, just 11 degrees or so but in the brighter skies, 13 or 14 towards the east. Into this evening, The Rain arrives across eastern parts of england, Eastern Scotland, and we see further heavy showers developing tonight was the west so there could be the Odd Rumble of thunder as the main Rain Band pushes its way North And East. Again, quite a chilly night for the time of year but not as cold as it was Last Night. I think Northern Ireland sees the lowest of the temperatures as we head on into monday. So monday, low pressure is still with us, quite familiar now, isnt it . Its right across the uk so monday will bring us a day of sunshine and showers for most. More persistent rain for Northern Scotland as the Weather Front lingers and spat she ran into Southern Scotland and Northern Ireland later in the afternoon but those showers have yes i think through central and eastern parts. Driver england, wales later so some sunshine in between those showers and temperatures at best 14 or 15. Into tuesday, yet another day of sunshine and showers so a bit of a case of Deja Vu. Most for scotland and Eastern England and could be a bit in the far South West as well. 13 or 14 at best but then eventually, things are going to turn drier and warmerfrom eventually, things are going to turn drier and warmer from wednesday onwards.

Welcome to click hope youre doing ok this week, were going to be talking a lot about taking photos. So, lara, you know how we have all been looking for new hobbies to help fill the time during lockdown, yeah . Ive been very busy colouring in with my eight year old. Oh, lovely so shes got her colouring in Book And Youve got an Adult Colouring in book and you sit next to each other, do you . No i only do the childrens ones because i think the grown up ones are too fiddly anyway, what have you been doing . Chuckles. Well, let me tell you, you know those amazing photos of the stars in the Night Sky that you can get by taking a long Exposure Photo . Well, ive kind have been getting into that, and it turns out that astronomy as a whole has become a much bigger deal in the last year. I suppose its something you can do in your Back Garden when youre on your own and cant go out. Exactly so you might think that youd need a big dslr and a telescope to get those kind of shots. But no. Turns out you might already have everything you need in your pocket. So i wanted to find out more about this, so i asked tv host, Space Journalist and Author Sarah cruddas to try a bit of astrophotography on her smartphones. It was looking up at the Night Sky as a child which inspired my lifelong love of space. But whereas in the past, capturing images of the Night Sky required expensive kit, now all you need is the latest smartphone, a bit of luck with the weather and enough time to set up before it gets dark. The latest generation of smartphones have a few low light tricks up their sleeves to make getting those insta worthy Night Sky photographs a lot easier. Im testing out four of the latest smartphones. Weve got the Huawei Mate 40 pro. The samsung s21. This Google Pixel 5. My iphone 12 pro max. And as for this, dont worry about it just yet because well be taking long Exposure Photographs, the most important extra Youll Need is a tripod to hold your phone steady. And the other really important thing is to go find somewhere that doesnt have too much light pollution. You can always have a look online for dark Sky Recommendations near you. Then all you need to do is wrap up warm and wait for night to fall. In fact, you might not have to wait until its fully dark before you get your first shot. If its up at dusk, its actually easier to shoot the moon against a Blue Sky rather than a black one that way, your Phone Wontjust turn it into a white blob while trying to compensate for the incredibly dark sky. Often when you think of astronomy, you think of expensive kit. But to be honest with you, if your Phone Isnt enough, if you want to get slightly closer to these astronomical objects, you need a pair of these, not a telescope. Im such a fan of binoculars theyre lightweight, you can carry them around, you can take them where you want to be and it involves less setting up and literally, it is a case of holding your smartphone up to the binoculars to get that perfect shot. There we go, ive got it. It is a bit tricky but if you want to get really close up pictures of the moon, it might be worth listening to a proper pro. A problem with trying to attach your camera or get your camera in the right place to look down the eyepiece of a telescope is holding the camera nice and steady over the eyepiece. So there are now devices in fact, ive got one here, there we are its like a little clamp. This bit clamps over the eyepiece of the telescope and your Phone Fits in here. Which is brilliant, because it will keep it really rock steady on the eyepiece and then concentrate on the picture. It is, as you can probably tell, insanely dark. Of course youre going to need a torch, but so that you dont dazzle yourself or ruin your Night Sky vision, heres a Top Tip for you use a red light. In fact, its so dark that we have chosen to record this entire film using a sony a7s mark iii, which has very impressive low light credentials. Its a full moon but apart from that, we have only used an artificial light for a handful of shots well tell you which ones on screen. Just look at how much our normal Tv Camera struggles in comparison. Ok, time to see what these phones can do. Camera clicks. This is the iphone 12 pro max. Its not bad for starters. And heres another tip if you are worried that pressing the Shutter Button will wobble the phone, you can get a very cheap bluetooth remote clicker like this one, or you can even use the Volume Control on your headphones as a remote Shutter Button. The Iphone And Samsung dont have specific astrophotography modes, so im going to go into full professional mode on the s21 and set a long exposure going. And the result is. Oh, wow wow do you know what . I even need to do slightly less exposure. It looks to be honest with you, it looks like a nuclear bombs gone off, it is so bright if you play around with the settings, you can get some really lovely shots, but the next two phones remove the Trial And Error with full astrophotography modes. Hold still for two minutes and 48 seconds. The Google Pixel 5 decides for itself how long it needs to run for. And for this shot, im also using one of petes other photography tips. If you take pictures of stars with no context around them, they are just dots in your photo. Theres nothing better than actually putting in a bit of artistic composition and adding in Foreground Objects because it gives everything a beautiful context. This is incredible its a really, really bright, really powerful image i would say of the Night Sky but it almost looks like daytime and ifeel like im a professional photographer, even though im just using a setting on a smartphone. One thing to bear in mind is when the moon is full, the brightness will make photographing stars rather difficult. We actually got some better shots a few nights later, before the moon was up. And now, to the Huawei Mate pro 40, which has something called light painting mode. This simulates a very long exposure shot by taking one photo every few seconds and stacking them together. The results are stunning. And itjust makes you realise that we are on this object that is moving, that is hurtling through space, you know, because you see how far the stars have moved. I think thats the best Astrophotography Picture ive ever taken with a phone, if i do say so myself it is quite incredible, really. Im really impressed with the phones but now, im going to try something that is comparatively out of this world. The Stellina Telescope uses the same technique of stacking lots of images, but on a very different scale. Its been designed in consultation with astronauts and former Nasa Astronaut Terry Virts is a telescopes brand ambassador. The stellina is kinda like being in space because you can see the planets and pick them out in space but theyre just small dots. And the stellina optics are sort of the same it doesnt have a big Zoom Lens that really zooms in to planets, but what stellina does let you do is see these Deep Sky Objects, and in space it was kind of the same thing you Cant Zoom in with your eyes on the planets but you can see these giant clouds of hydrogen in the milky way, or you can see nebula with your eyes. Once powered up, the stellina orientates itself by looking around for familiar stars and constellations and the accompanying app will give you a list of Deep Sky Objects to choose from. So weve got to choose from the m13 galaxy, m51, m82, sombrero galaxy, double cluster. Lets do m13, the hercules cluster. It will then track the chosen object across the sky, building up an image which it sends direct to your smartphone. Do you know, ive done astronomy since i was five years old i remember i had a little Childrens Pair of binoculars but this is the most high Tech Thing ive ever seen. Ive done it so this is my photograph its taken it for ten minutes of the hercules cluster. You cant even see this object in the Night Sky, and this image has brought up not only the cluster but more stars than i can see with my own eyes. Its its really incredible to think how much technology has evolved since galileo looked up with his telescope all those centuries ago, and now we have these Science Fiction like Smart Devices which you can capture images of the Night Sky. In order to get the best pictures, you do need some perseverance and patience, but the results really have been worth the cold. Sometimes, though, It Isjust worth putting your phone down and taking in the majesty of it all as we hurtle through the universe on our one tiny ball of rock. Brilliant that was sarah cruddas. How amazing were those pictures . incredible pictures. And its amazing to see what our smartphones can do that most of us will never actually use them for. Right. And over the course of the past year, some people have got into new hobbies. Others may have been busy sorting things out around the house, like maybe going through some old photos. And in fact, i have something here that could be very handy for that. This is a gadget for digitising old negatives, so you can either save them in your phone or you can print them. Right. Ok, how does it work . Its simple to use but it is a bit fiddly. Youve to download the Pictoscanner App first and then turn the light on. Slip your negative in here. Line up your Phone Camera with the hole, and then youre ready to go. I see, so its reversing the colours in the image its showing you the positive of the negative in a live view, yeah . Thats right, then youve just gotta snap it. That is a striking photo, by The Way thats darth maul, if anyones asking. It is, and its bright, so it seemed a good one to test as the colours really pop. And after a bit ofjiggling the device about, it works. Its not perfect, but it is largely made out of cardboard and it does only cost 35 quid. Is that you under the Make Up, by The Way . No all of my old pictures are way too embarrassing i think its you under the Make Up. Anyway, that is it for the shortcut of click this week. Much more waiting for you in the full length version, which is on iplayer right now. As ever, you can keep up with the team on Social Media. Find us on youtube, instagram, Facebook And Twitter at bbclick. From me and darth maul, thanks for watching, and well see you soon. Chuckles. Bye bye. We love a brave dog. Much prefer the Dog Pictures to the ants pictures. I good Morning Welcome to breakfast with Ben Thompson and sally nugent.

Its a chilly and bright start to the day for much of the uk. We will see some Rain Moving in from the west later on. Some eastern areas keeping dry all day. Ill have all the details for you here on breakfast. Its sunday the 23rd of may. Our top story both the Pfizer And Astrazeneca coronavirus vaccines, the two main jabs used in the uks rollout, are highly effective against the indian variant of the disease according to a study by public Health England. The Health Secretary Matt hancock described the findings as Ground Breaking and said he was increasingly confident the government is on track for the final stage of its roadmap out of lockdown. Heres our health correspondentjim reed. Back up A Little Bit more there, fella, if you will. In places like rochdale in greater manchester, vaccinations are now being offered to younger Age Groups. All those over 18 can get a jab with no appointment needed. Quite eager to come and Get It Done because once the first ones out of The Way, its out of The Way, and its easy to just Get It Done while its offered to go Get It Done, than waiting for an appointment to be scheduled. I think its very important to just keep yourself safe but also help other people Stay Safe as well. So yeah, i think its really important for everyone to do it. Scientists think the so called indian variant of the virus can spread more quickly, so areas like this where cases are growing, are being offered extra Surge Vaccinations, and the first real world data shows how important that could be. An early study has found one dose of either the pfizer or Astrazeneca Jab was 33 effective at stopping infection from the indian variant. It worked better against the older kent strain. But a second dose boosted that protection, narrowing the gap almost completely, and bringing it in line with its effect against the more widespread Kent Variant. The second dose boosts your immune system, makes it more effective at a wider range of variants of Sars Cov 2 that are circulating, and thats why were asking people to come forward for their second dose at 8 weeks. That lower figure for the Astrazeneca Jab in the study may well be revised up later as scientists say that vaccine takes longer to build up its protection. Right now, the research can only tell us about covid infections. Its thought both jabs should offer even stronger protection against any severe Disease And Death caused by the indian variant. We all know that The Way out of this is this pandemic is the vaccine and this data shows that has not Changed, that is the right strategy, but it makes it even more important for everybody to get the second jab. Overall, then, this study makes for reassuring reading. Its the strongest evidence yet that vaccines can beat new variants of the virus, but it suggests that second dose could be key as Society Heads back towards normality. Jim reed, bbc news. Britons are effectively barred from entering germany from today, under tough new rules introduced to keep on top of covid levels. German citizens, residents and their immediate families are still allowed to enter from the uk, but they will have to quarantine for two weeks on arrival.

It has been spreading in parts of england and originated in india. Infections have been falling in germany, quite rapidly. For the past month here, Vaccination Rates have gone up so actually germany is faring quite well right now in the pandemic. Officials say the third wave has been broken. The problem is, the german government is really worried about the so called indian variant coming over to germany. Which is why on friday, the government announced that travel would effectively be banned for britons coming into germany. The only exception is for german citizens and residents of germany but that will make travel incredibly difficult and also those people coming in will have to do two Weeks Quarantine when they get here and of course you add that to the quarantine you have to do when you come from germany to england, or to the uk, so it means that travel will be really limited between the uk and germany for the foreseeable future, until things Change, which could be in the next month or two. Fascinating stuff, thanks very much, damien mcguinness, life for us from berlin. The journalist as the centre of a scandal about the 1995 bbc Panorama Interview with Diana Princess of wales has rejected suggestions that his actions were ultimately responsible for her death two years later. In an interview for the Sunday Times, Martin Bashir admitted he was wrong to have forged Bank Statements to obtain the interview, but insists it had no bearing on subsequent events. Boris johnsons former chief adviser Dominic Cummings has suggested that the governments original plan to manage the pandemic was to let the Virus Spread through the population, thereby achieving so called Herd Immunity. In a series of tweets, mr cummings refers to the governments handling of the crisis as a disaster. Lets speak to our political correspondent, greg dawson. This comes ahead of the hearing in parliament when Dominic Cummings will be giving evidence to mps about the governments handling in the early stages of the pandemic. We always said he wouldnt rinse his words and there is a lot of hype about this appearance. He has given us a taste of what is to come mince his words. He referred to the pandemic in his tweets as a disaster and all decisions were made by the government and said lives and money were needlessly lost and that key claim is made. He said governments official plan at the start of the pandemic was Herd Immunity and let the Virus Spread freely throughout the Virus Spread freely throughout the population. It said the government Changed its mind on this when it realised it would leave the catastrophe, in the words of Dominic Cummings. The government has always said in the early stages it followed the best scientific life and it will hold an enquiry into the pandemic in the fullness of time to review what happened. He had a relationship with lorisjohnson, they worked in Downing Street for 16 months and borisjohnson Downing Street for 16 months and Boris Johnson trusted Downing Street for 16 months and borisjohnson trusted his judgement and now Dominic Cummings is delivering the judgement in a very damaging way. Delivering the judgement in a very damaging way delivering the judgement in a very damaging way. The organisers of Glastonbury Festival have apologised after thousands of people who bought tickets for a live Stream Concert were unable to view the show for more than two hours. The Ticketing System was eventually abandoned altogether, and made the concert free for anyone to watch, as Colin Paterson reports. When glastonbury is disrupted, its usually by rain and mud. Last night, the problem was internet connectivity. Live at Worthy Farm was a five hour live stream to raise money for the festival, but when it started at 7 00, people paid £20 to watch pre recorded sets by the likes of coldplay and Damon Albarn, were told that their access codes were invalid. As the minutes ticked by, fans said they were giving up and watching recordings of Old Glastonburies or even switching on eurovision. This is the Grand Final of the Eurovision Song Contest 2021 almost two hours passed before it was announced that a new link had been created and anyone could watch the event for free, whether theyd bought a ticket or not. Glastonbury boss Emily Eavis has apologised and the whole thing will be rerun online today. Colin paterson, bbc news. To music of a rather different kind. The Eurovision Song Contest Last Night, you may have heard, italy triumphed, we didnt do very well. That is kinda all you needed to know, isnt it . It was a bad year once again for the uk, as James Newman was the only act to end the night with Nul Points from both the nationaljuries and the public. Anna holligan was watching in rotterdam. Singing in italian. Maneskin, the italian rockers, won the audience over with their catchy anthem, quiet and good. Its 31 years since the italians last tasted victory at the worlds biggest televised singing competition. Were so honoured and happy and we really want to thank everyone who supported us. This is unbelievable, we really didnt expect it and were so happy, yeah. Out of the embers, you and i gonna light up the room. From the winners, to James Newman. Light up the room . Who secured his place in history with Nul Point. Itis it is the bones of a new age. For the first time in a long time, the fans were allowed to remove their face masks and forget about social distancing inside. To sing and dance along to a quintessentially eurovision range. Watching the contest in the stadium or on screen, Eurovisions Taste of togetherness offered some escapism from the virus thats dominated our lives for so long. In the dark, inside a hole in my heart. Holding this event which has made possible can help to make live music and events around the world once again. Anna holligan, bbc news, rotterdam.

The fallout from the report into the bbc� s1995 Martin Bashir interview with Princess Diana continues to lead several front pages this morning. Lets Take A Look. The front page of the telegraph carries a warning from former Bbc Chairman Lord grade of yarmouth, who says the bbc is one journalistic lapse from bringing the whole house down. Theres a quote from the family of michaeljackson, who was also interviewed by Martin Bashir, on the front of The Sunday mirror. The singers nephew, taj, accuses him of unethical journalism, according to the paper. In his first interview since the scandal, Martin Bashir has told the Sunday Times hes deeply sorry to Princes William and harry over The Way he secured the interview with their mother in 1995 but he has defended the interview itself. And the observer is reporting that ministers are to conduct a wider than anticipated review of the bbc� s operations next year as recriminations over the controversial interview grow. Lets bring in the conservative mp julian knight, who is chair of the digital, culture, media and sport select committee. Hejoins us now. Good morning. Lots of speculation as we saw in the papers about what happens next and i suppose the question many will want to know is how the bbc draws a line under this and how it moves on and what you would like to see happen next. , h what you would like to see happen next. , � , next. Lord dysons report was very thorough. I next. Lord dysons report was very thorough, i thought, next. Lord dysons report was very thorough, ithought, in next. Lord dysons report was very thorough, thought, in many thorough, ithought, in many respects in terms of, and incredibly damning as well, and i think it is quite brave of the Director General to have instigated this and then to put this out there as well because it certainly is a very dark moment for the bbc. However, there are still questions to be answered, particularly around the Re Employment of Martin Bashir in 2016 and also, i would say that we need to be sure that the processes are in place that editorial policy is respected and has allowed a voice in the bbc so in the future we dont have any chance of a repeat of this shoddyjournalism. The shoddy journalism. The directorgeneral i shoddy journalism. The directorgeneral of i shoddyjournalism. The Director General of course Tim Davie pointing out this happened 26 years ago and the bbc is a very different organisation now than it was then and says obviously work needs to be done to make sure a repeat cannot happen. But what improvements would you like to see made, given that this was 26 years ago . You like to see made, given that this was 26 years ago . Yeah, well, absolutely. This was 26 years ago . Yeah, well, absolutely, the this was 26 years ago . Yeah, well, absolutely, the whole this was 26 years ago . Yeah, well, absolutely, the whole tabloid i absolutely, the whole tabloid culture, particularly around piano, then was very toxic, as many of us are old enough to remember. Around diana. I dont agree that it is all in the past. I have written to him in the last day or so to ask him a series of questions related to the Re Employment of Martin Bashir and also there are questions over what effectively could be deemed a Cover Up at the bbc over this over a long period of time and whether or not for example journalists within the bbc were discouraged investigating this and also who was it precisely, who rehired Mr Basheer and under what circumstances, what conversations i had with the then Director General Lord Hall agree to. I dont think we should say 26 years ago, lets move on. I think real questions to be answered and we will try to get to those as best we can. You mentioned Lord Hall of course, and Last Night he resigned as chairman of the national gallery. Do you think it is enough . I chairman of the national gallery. Do you think it is enough . You think it is enough . I think, well, personally, you think it is enough . I think, well, personally, i you think it is enough . I think, well, personally, ithink you think it is enough . I think, well, personally, i think that i you think it is enough . I think, i well, personally, i think that Lord Hall was right to resign, partly because the patron of the gallery, the prince of wales, had to leave as well. Im not here tojudge Lord Hall as such, i will let other people do that, and also have to say you must remember that he worked for 35 years of the bbc and put on and off a lot of work during that time so i dont really wish to be Casting Stones at particular individuals, if you like. However, what i would say is we still need to get to the bottom of the rehiring process because that is very recent. And also what we need to do is ensure that within the bbc that the editorial policy actually has a much greater say because my concerns, and i speak as a formerjournalist, 17 years on Fleet Street and also at the bbc, great concerns are that really, the editorial policy is not respect enough at the bbc and other interests take over and that, i think, is a culture that needs to Change and i look to Mr Davey to enact the Change. Enact the Change. Within a lot of a olories enact the Change. Within a lot of apologies made enact the Change. Within a lot of apologies made over enact the Change. Within a lot of apologies made over recent i enact the Change. Within a lot of| apologies made over recent days enact the Change. Within a lot of. Apologies made over recent days as enact the Change. Within a lot of apologies made over recent days as a result of this Investigation And Report so are apologies enough or would like to see compensation paid to who were particularly affected . I think in particular the whistleblower seems to have been incredibly poorly treated. He alleges that he effectively have been blackballed and that is unacceptable on every single level if it is the case. I would urge Tim Davie to speak to the graphic designer concerned, urge him to meet with him and to discuss exactly The Way forwards so that the bbc can put to write the errors of, well, it may seem in the distant past but obviously for this Epic Design It probably seems very real and very now. ,. ,. ,. , probably seems very real and very now. ,. ,~. , probably seems very real and very now. ,. , probably seems very real and very now. Good to speak to you this morning now. Good to speak to you this morning. Thank now. Good to speak to you this morning. Thank you now. Good to speak to you this morning. Thank you very i now. Good to speak to you this| morning. Thank you very much. Lets speak now to the Guardian Columnist Jane martinson. Good morning to you. There has been a lot of talk over the past several days about how damaging this whole thing is for the bbc and public trust in the standards of the bbc. What needs to happen now to rebuild the trust . I what needs to happen now to rebuild the trust . ~ �. , the trust . I think youre right and i think the trust . I think youre right and i think there the trust . I think youre right and i think there are the trust . I think youre right and i think there are obviously the trust . I think youre right and i think there are obviously huge l i think there are obviously huge Editorial Misjudgments made at the time and since. I do think, however, we have two bear in mind that the bbc is still on the top of every poll of the most trusted new source and i think it would be a tragedy if this incident, terrible though it was with awful consequences, many of whom we dont even know how far the consequences went, can be used because of the political situation, because of the political situation, because of the economic crisis facing a lot of news providers, to sort of hit the bbc even more. I know thatjulian knight there said some useful things and i know that there would be lots of Government Ministers who have talked about changing the governance of the bbc and next year they are looking at the charter and the review will be opened up and government, as mentioned, will be looking at that and the point i would like to make was it was 2017 the last time the Bbc Charter was Changed significantly, where they completely Changed the governance so that ofcom was given rights to regulate the bbc, for the first time, it was completely separate. Ending decades of self regulation. Ofcom, that is just a few years ago. And the government itself is Change with another type of inaudible so i think Changes that we made in the bbc needs to understand that in order to survive and when our trust and they need transparency, openness and honesty. They need to be properly understood and valued. fine honesty. They need to be properly understood and valued. Honesty. They need to be properly understood and valued. One of the thins i understood and valued. One of the things i know understood and valued. One of the things i know many understood and valued. One of the things i know many people understood and valued. One of the things i know many people are i things i know many people are concerned about when reading the details of the story is the treatment of the person who attempted to blow the whistle on the Martin Bashir situation. What can the bbc do, jane, to Change and protect people who want to come forward and express concerns . There have been Changes forward and express concerns . There have been Changes made forward and express concerns . Tues have been Changes made about whistleblowers but it needs to go far further. Whistleblowers but it needs to go farfurther. There needs to be cultural Changes. Ifind farfurther. There needs to be cultural Changes. I find the treatment of him and other people who have tried to raise concerns, this awful narrative of being a jealous colleague. No, this could have been dealt with back in 1996. If someone like him, who was there, closely working with him, ever having checked out at the time, and the bbc will say they Change their whistleblowers will Change The Way they treat with whistleblowers and dies Ands Report had a Section Called Issues i have not considered outside the remit of his report and one of them was whistleblowing procedures and i think that is really urgent, that they need to work out a way that if you come forward and say this is happening, someone will take it seriously. I agree withjulian knight that his entire career was strange because of what happened and same thing can be said of other people. I. Tlulhat what happened and same thing can be said of other people. Said of other people. What do you think of the said of other people. What do you think of the decision said of other people. What do you think of the decision that said of other people. What do you think of the decision that the i think of the decision that the original interview itself with Princess Diana should not be used again . I Princess Diana should not be used auain . ,. Again . I found thursday night, when Prince William again . I found thursday night, when Prince William stood again . I found thursday night, when Prince William stood up again . I found thursday night, when Prince William stood up and again . I found thursday night, when Prince William stood up and said i Prince William stood up and said what he did incredibly affecting. It broke with tradition but it also obviously was a man talking about the death of his mother and the consequences. I think we have to be careful though not to lose sight that nobody has suggested that Princess Diana did not want to give the interview. She wanted to reply, her husband had given an interview tojonathan dimbleby and she wanted tojonathan dimbleby and she wanted to speak her truth which has become a trendy phrase now but obviously her daughter in law is using the same words, the interview was still given and she said things and i personally find the idea, to silence that seems to me to be going too far. We need to be careful. But of course, sensitivities around all of theseissues course, sensitivities around all of these issues and how she was sort of i think there were two different things, The Way she was sort of, you know, agreed to give the interview is different from what she actually said. ,. ~ ,.

Good i morning, yes, a bit up and down certainly over the next few days and we are fairly confident now there is eventually dry weather on the cards over the next week or so but before we get there, a mixed picture. Some sunshine this morning, particularly in the east. This is the story in eastbourne, lipsky, A Little Bit shower cloud. An area of rain will move west to east slowly through the course of the day so it may well start of right and fairly chilly but most places will see some rain before the day is out. It is courtesy of this area of low pressure so that is moving its way in from the atlantic with quite a bit of isobars around it so not only turning wetter but windier in the west as well. The past few hours has seen The Rain already arriving across Northern Ireland with a few showers ahead of it for Western Parts of britain as well and as we move through today it is bringing this band are fairly heavy rain with squally winds around it which will shift into parts of south West England, wales, Western Scotland but northern and Eastern Scotland and Eastern England, a different story, you should hold onto some brightness through quite a good part of the day so some hazy sunshine here with 13 or 14 in the warmest spots but under The Rain with the squally winds, 11 degrees so not feeling particularly warm for the time of year. Heavy showers rattle in across Northern Ireland through the afternoon and evening. This Rain Band eventually pushes across all areas overnight, clearing from the east coast but lingering parts of scotland and further south, a few showers overnight. Anotherfairly further south, a few showers overnight. Another fairly chilly night but not as cold as the night we just night but not as cold as the Night Wejust had. Northern ireland down to about three or four first thing. Mondays weather is dominated by low pressure once again, sitting right across the uk and we will see some systems rotating around the area of low pressure, some showers, heavy across england and wales, particularly in the south towards the east with thunderstorms likely. Some sunshine for northern england, north wales but they could be rain pushing south across parts of scotland and Northern Ireland and again, relatively cool, 14 or 15 in the warmest spot. Another day of sunshine and showers on tuesday, most of them on tuesday for parts of scotland and Eastern England. Some drier weather for the likes of wales, Northern Ireland, potential forsome wales, Northern Ireland, potential for some rain wales, Northern Ireland, potential Forsome Rain in wales, Northern Ireland, potential for some rain in the South West. 13 or 14 degrees on tuesday, bear with the weather though because eventually things were looking like things will be looking drier and warmer. Towards the Bank Holiday Weekend we could at last see temperatures up to 20 degrees.

Jonathan beale, bbc news. Stay with us. Plenty more still to come on breakfast. Hello, this is breakfast with Ben Thompson and sally nugent. Is just after isjust after 7 30am. The two main coronavirus vaccines in use across the uk, do protect against the indian variant of the disease, according to new research. A study by public Health England found both doses of either the Astra Zeneca or the pfizerjab were nearly as effective against the indian, as the Kent Variant. Were joined now by the gp, Dr Mohit mandiratta. Good morning to you. Good news. Lots of concern during the week about what the indian variant could mean as far as the vaccines were concerned but this research tells us that actually things are looking good. That actually things are looking aood. � ,. , that actually things are looking ood. � ,. ,. , good. Absolutely, really, really aood good. Absolutely, really, really good news good.

Absolutely, really, really i good news. Again, there has been concern about the indian variant. We know it is a bit more transmissible than the dominant Kent Variant we have in the country at the moment, but this is really positive news. The research has shown that one dose of the vaccines, a few weeks after that, it takes around 30 protects around 33 against symptomatic covert cases but this increases with the second dose of salt covid. With pfizer, it is just shy of its effectiveness against the Kent Variant and astrazeneca, it is again in a similar ballpark to its protectiveness against the Kent Variant. Positive news. Again it highlights the fantastic work our researchers have done to get us to this point in the Vaccine Programme, the hard work of the nhs but also it shows the importance of getting the second dose of course the first dose offers some protection, you do need the second dose for protection so really encouraging everyone awaiting their second dose to come forward when the time comes. You their second dose to come forward when the time comes. Their second dose to come forward when the time comes. You are right and it does when the time comes. You are right and it does highlight when the time comes. You are right and it does highlight the and it does highlight the importance of the second dose but also might go some way to convince people who have perhaps been A Little Bit hesitant about having the vaccine at all because of new variants, perhaps this reinforces that getting it is the best way to prevent infection. Absolutely and there has been so much work going on to tackle any Hesitancy And Complacency which i have to say, we were concerned about complacency with our younger population and with them thinking, i am younger, maybe covid wont affect me and maybe i dont need the vaccine. But is not something i am really seeing too much on the ground but absolutely, itjust highlights the fantastic work the Vaccine Programme has done and the fact it is effective against these variants is effective against these variants is fantastic news. They may be a Booster Programme in the winter which is fantastic opportunity for scientists to tweak the vaccine to be more effective against the variants.

This cohort we are now doing is not the high risk covid group, it is generally a more well, working age or mobile population so we are doing things in a slightly different way with more walk in centres, pop up clinics, trying to be a bit more flexible to their needs but still going incredibly well, still a lot of positivity. Lots of people coming in so really, really good news again. The statistics are showing that the proportions of all of the Age Groups that have had the vaccination and as always, people who were hesitant and havent had the vaccine, are changing their mind, we encourage them to come forward and if they had questions, please come forward and we will try to address any concerns that you have regarding the vaccine. fight have regarding the vaccine.

Realistically, what i would want to say is that it has been open throughout the pandemic, we are working harder than ever as a number of appointments we are offering is more than ever that i think statistics have shown we have offered 275 Million appointments in gps across the last 12 months through the pandemic for top this is alongside to the 175 increase in the Vaccination Programme. I completely appreciate that patients and people may be struggling to get through to us, they may feel their expectations and needs are not met which is upsetting and im sure takes people frustrated but obviously unfortunately we are a finite resource, there is a fixed number of doctors, nurses, secretaries, receptionists, who are all working to the maximum of their ability through this increased demand for. I appreciate people are frustrated but obvious live we cant tolerate abuse in any sector, it is the same across any factor. I know how hard are receptionists work trying to get people into the right person at the right time but as much as i can understand that is as frustrating to get through, i would really request that people be kind and respectful and understand how each other, how we are all working as best we can and you know, in gps, there are absolutely times where we are more busy than others first time in the morning.

He takes a one Shot Lead going into the final round at kiawah island. His third round included this birdie on the 10th, which at that stage had mickelson five shots clear.

Keeps you on the edge, brings out the best in you and you can absolutely feel the excitement. We are full of optimism, positivity, whatever you want, because we are really excited, if we have to play that game now and we have no chance for anything anymore, then its just intense. But its really exciting as well. I if we arrive on 69 points at The End i of the season and somehow dont make it to the Champions League then it has been really, i thats because leicester have spent the whole season in the top four until they lost to chelsea on tuesday. It means that Chelsea And Liverpool have their fate in their own hands this afternoon. There are a whole load of permutations that could see any of them miss out. If, though, chelsea fail to win and slip to fifth, they can still qualify for the Champions League by beating Manchester City in this seasons final next weekend.

That came just a few hours after the wbo had ordered anthonyjoshua to defend his heavyweight title against mandatory challenger oleksandr usyk. Crazy, right . It is all to do with the contract that Tyson Fury had with Deontay Wilder and there is always the potential for the third fight in the offing and a clause in the contract that fury� s team had argued it had expired that he could fightjosh, but obviously Deontay Wilders team was saying no, i want my third fight and seemingly, there has been, i think the courts have ruled in the us they have to have it so joshua and ruled in the us they have to have it sojoshua and fury, the weight goes on.

The longer Range Forecast through the next week orso Range Forecast through the next week or so is for things to eventually turn a bit warmer and drier but we have low pressure in charge for another few days to come so was some there is some Time Out there this morning but for other areas the cloud has moved in and this is the scene in pontypridd, The Rain sweeping west to east so i chilly but about suffer some on the east although the Rain Bullhead through during today and all courtesy of this area of low pressure. The latest in a Conveyor Belt of low pressure affecting the uk. The Radar Picture shows The Rain sweeping across Northern Ireland, some shari both ran across Western Parts of britain and in the east, dry at the moment for most and hazy sunshine out so some Blue Sky lasting through much of the day for the far North And East of scotland and Eastern England as well. Further west, this band of heavy rain, high school he winds associated with it as it pushes into south West England, wales, north West England as well, 11 degrees also under the brand of rain but in the brighter skies, 13 or 14 in the east. Northern ireland has a chilly day but they return to sunshine and heavy showers late this afternoon into evening. Eventually the band of rain pushes across all of the uk so we will all see wet weather through this evening and overnight. It will lingerfor weather through this evening and overnight. It will linger for the north of scotland, clearing from east coast of england. Another fairly chilly night so temperatures into the mid single figures, particularly chilly for Northern Ireland, not quite as cold as Last Night. Into tomorrow, low pressure is still very much with us, sitting across the uk. A few fronts are rotating around the area of low pressure that will pep up the showers a day of sunshine and showers a day of sunshine and showers for many. England and wales and particularly in the south and east, the showers will be heavy, slow moving and thundery. Further north, rain pushes across parts of scotland and Northern Ireland but sunshine in between the North England and north wales with temperatures 14 or 15 at best. We still have the theme of sunshine and showers so a case of Deja Vu into tuesday. Some dry weather for parts of Northern Ireland, perhaps wales, not an unsettled story and still cool for this stage in may. Take a look at midweek onwards because eventually things are going to turn not completely dry but certainly much drier than they have been with less windy and potentially warmer so quite a bit of dry weather on the outlook as we head towards the Bank Holiday Weekend and we could very well see temperatures leading up to the elusive 20 degrees or so, at least in the south, by the time we get to the weekend so bear with the weather, a few more shari days before we get there. We weather, a few more shari days before we get there. Weather, a few more shari days before we get there. We are looking forward to the before we get there.

Coming up this week on the Travel Show safari for the very first time. We are more excited. And now we can afford the rates, thats why were here. As the world slowly reopens, our global guru simon is back with advice on when and how to book. My Passport Hasnt seen any action all year and i am desperate to escape Hello And Welcome to kenyas maasai mara, one of the the best game reserves in the entire world, and for good reason. Local tourism authorities say nowhere in africa has wildlife this abundant. In 2020, when international tourism largely stopped, a lot of the high end resorts had to come up with new ways to keep their rooms and theirjeeps full. There arent many nature reserves on earth quite as well known as kenyas maasai mara. This is the final Destination Everyjuly and august for all of the creatures involved in the great migration from the serengeti plains over the border in tanzania. There is around 1. 5 million wildebeests alone, with large numbers of zebra and antelope species joining the journey. Can we go closer to the elephant . You want many elephants . Uh, we want many, yeah. That would be good. This is wild one, two, three, four, five. 11. 11 lions. This is wild chuckles. They are just looking at us like, what are you . What are you doing here . It is only 7 30 is it your first time on safari . Yes. Ah, 0k. How do you feel, being on yourfirst safari . Excited, yeah. We are more excited and we are hoping to see this again. So why did you come now and not before . Just because of the high rates. And now we can afford the rates, thats why were here. Last year saw a huge push to attract more kenyans to go on safari in their own country. Normally, this is an expensive trip but prices have been dropped by half at some resorts. Other luxury hotels have been offering tantalising package deals. And this is one of those places. In pre covid times, a stay here would put you back A Little Bit but during the pandemic, there were some special deals offered to local tourists, and theyve been a bit hit. But some people are beginning to ask questions about the future. Ok, one Pineapple Mint for you. Asa Nte Sa na. I spilled it A Little Bit no worries what happens when borders reopen and the wealthy foreigners start returning . Harriet is a kenyan Travel Writer and she sees trouble ahead. If the prices go high again, i think these hotels will not have learned their lessons. I think the covid experience should have taught them a lesson in that they would have made fair prices. We dont need to use them when we are down and then dump them when the things are good. There will be some who will have learned from the lessons, probably some who will have diversified and tuned into the kenyan market and what they like. Because theres no sense of you offering what you are offering for international market when our taste buds are different. Lets take food. Some of the small, simple things, you know . Yeah. That makes me know that you really understand me and you have learnt about my culture and you appreciate me. Even their Social Media pages, you know . It will make a difference having a kenyan or black people in there. But of course, some resorts have been popular with domestic tourists for years. This place, just on the edge of the reserve, is owned and run by kenyans, and theres lots of locals that stay here. Its a tented camp, without some of the thrills of the more luxury resorts, with a Price Tag thats much more accessible for many of us. A night here will set you back about us 100, and thats around £70. Evening in the maasai mara. Its beautiful, a time of day when us canadians are interested in only one thing. I cant help it. I see a fire, i want to tend to it. Its in my blood. Canadians love campfires. Look at this let me show you some of my photos. You might recall issac and jackline from earlier, who kindly let me join their game drive. It was their first time ever seeing kenyas wildlife. Many people have been coming to mara but we have been seeing the migration through the televisions. And one day i told my husband that we should plan to come to maasai mara. But my husband was like, oh, the problem is the rates. They might be too high for us, so we cannot afford. So thats when after the covid 19, when it came, ourfriends came to siana springs and they told us that the rates are affordable, so we decided to come and see the mara. And how do you feel about the future here, knowing that tourism is opening back up again . Yes. The future might be bright when the hoteliers themselves consider the local tourists. They do care more about the local tourists. They are treating us just the same like the international tourists, and we feel more different. If they treat me like a white person, imjust 0k. I feel nice. With travel on the horizon, people are starting to think about what is possible again. But before you book the trip you have been dreaming of, take a moment to consider what happens if something gets between you and your plans. Fortunately, simon calder is here to untangle all the complexity surrounding a trip this year. If youre a loyal viewer of the Travel Show, you might be thinking, hang on about a year ago, im sure he was saying, oh, it will all be over byjuly well have a normal summer. Well, yes, i was hopelessly overoptimistic. And the confidence we used to have as travellers has been seriously dented. For the coming months, maybe years, there will be an awful lot of uncertainty associated with travelling abroad. But as some parts of the world at least start to emerge, even the most valid adventurer has to accept that the journey abroad even the most avowed adventurer has to accept that the journey abroad these days is almost a constantly changing obstacle course. Until the start of the coronavirus pandemic, nobody red the small print. Now pretty much everybody does, and you will see what the big holiday companies have said, ok, we want to be as flexible as possible in order to get in your pocket. And so quite typically they will let you Change your destination. They will allow you to postpone your trip, sometimes up to a few weeks, maybe even a few days before departure. You wont be able to get a Cash Refund if the trip is still going ahead, but you will have the peace of mind that you will be able to enjoy the holiday at some stage in the future. Accommodation providers are increasingly flexible, and so i am booking stuff where i know that i only pay at check in. Theyll probably still want a Credit Card Number to prove you are serious, but please remember to cancel as early as you possibly can if youre not going to be taking it up, so they can give it to someone else. Id love to say there is bargains galore out there, but while there are some really cheap deals popping up here and there, i suspect that the overall trend for the year is going to be that whatever you paid in 2019, expect to pay a quarter, third, maybe a half as much as the airlines and holiday companies desperately try to recoup some money. If the price of the trip you are looking at looks astronomical, i urge you to practice masterful inactivity. That simply means doing nothing, because if there are large profits being made, well, you can be sure that other travel companies are watching, they may well put in extra capacity, and that will force prices down. Dont forget to build in the cost of testing. Coming back to the uk, for example, i have to have a test before i leave and another one on arrival. And for a family, that can really start to add up. Early on in the covid crisis, cruise ships were hotspots for the virus, and as cruising finally gets going again at scale, a lot of cruise lines are saying if youve not been fully vaccinated, youre not getting on board. And for people who cannot, or choose not, to be vaccinated, well, im afraid you could find international travel for the next few months really tricky. Thats everything for this week but coming up next time. We look back at some of the strangest places we have spent the night here on the Travel Show. Have spent the night here on the travelshow. From have spent the night here on the Travel Show. From krista spending a chilly Night Perch Camping in the uk to the time i did not get much sleep in a bunker in sarajevo which tries to recreate some of the terror of living through the balkan conflicts in the 905. And remember you can watch all of our adventures on the bbc iplayer. Actually, there are longer ver5ions bbc iplayer. Actually, there are longer versions of the episodes there too.

Ill be talking to Mark Fo5ter at 8 30 to discuss what sets him apart from the rest. Good morning, its a chilly and bright start to the day for much of the uk. We will see some Rain Moving on from the west later on. Some eastern areas are keeping dry all day. Ill have all the details for you here on breakfast. Its sunday the 23rd of may. Our top story both the Pfizer And Astrazeneca coronavirus vaccines, the two main jab5 used in the uks roll out, are highly effective against the indian variant of the disease according to a study by public Health England. The Health Secretary Matt hancock described the findings a5 Ground Breaking and said he was increasingly confident the government is on track for the final stage of its Road Map out of lockdown. Heres our health correspondentjim reed. In places like rochdale in greater manchester, vaccinations are now being offered to younger Age Groups. All those over 18 can get a jab with no appointment needed. Quite eager to come and Get It Done because once the first one is out of The Way, it is out of The Way, and it is easy to just Get It Done when it is offered to Get It Done than waiting for an appointment to get scheduled. To keep yourself safe but also help other people keep safe as well. Scientist5 think the so called indian variant of the virus can spread more quickly so areas like this where cases are growing are being offered extra Surge Vaccinations and the first real world data shows how important that could be. An early study has found one dose of either the pfizer or the Astrazeneca Jab was 33 effective in stopping infection from the indian variant. It worked better against the older kent 5train. The gap almost completely, bringing it in line with its effect against the more widespread Kent Variant. The second dose boosts yourune system, makes it more effective against other variants of Sars Cov 2 to that we are experience. That lower figure for the Astrazeneca Jab in the study may be revised up later as that vaccine takes longer to build up its protection. Right now, it is notjab should offer even stronger protection against any severe Disease And Death caused by the indian variant. We all know that The Way out of this is the vaccine and this data shows that is not Changed, that is the right strategy, that it makes it even more important for everybody to get the second jab. Overall, then, this study makes for reassuring reading. It is the strongest evidence yet that vaccines can beat new variants of the virus but it suggests that second dose could be key as Society Heads back towards normality. The former Bbc Journali5t Martin ba5hir has defended his controversial Panorama Interview with Princess Diana in 1995, and rejected suggestions that his actions were ultimately responsible for her death two years later. In an interview with the Sunday Times, he admitted that he was wrong to have forged Bank Statements to obtain the interview, but in5i5t5 it had no bearing on subsequent events. James reynolds reports. The Dyson Report found that Martin Ba5hir commissioned Fal5e Bank statements in order to secure his interview with diana, princess of wales. Mr bashir, who recently resigned from the bbc On Health Grounds, has now told the Sunday Times he is deeply sorry to prince5 william and harry, but he rejected the duke of cambridges claim that he fuelled dianas paranoia. I never wanted to harm diana in any way, and i dont believe we did, he said. I dont feel i can be held responsible for many of the other things that were going on in her life and the complex issues surrounding those decisions. Tony hall, mr ba5hir5 boss at the time of the 1995 interview, led an internal enquiry soon afterwards which found the journalist to be honest and honourable, but the Dyson Report said this Enquiry Wa5 woefully ineffective. As a result, Lord Hall, who left the bbc as Director General in 2020, has now stepped down as the chairman of the national gallery. In a statement, he said. Ive always had a strong sense of public service and its clear my continuing in the role would be a distraction to an institution i care deeply about. As i said two days ago, he went on, i am very sorry for the events of 25 years ago and i believe leadership means taking responsibility. Dianas brother, Earl Spencer, has asked the metropolitan police to look again at the circumstances of her interview with Martin Bashir. Scotland yard says its looking at the Dyson Investigation to see if there is any significant new evidence to support a new criminal investigation. The current Director General of the bbc, Tim Davie, 5aid the scandal leaves the corporation with much to reflect on.

The organisers of Glastonbury Festival have apologised after thousands of people who bought tickets for a live Stream Concert were unable to view the show for more than two hours. The Ticketing System was eventually abandonded altogether, and made the concert free for anyone to watch. Colin paterson is here to tell us more.

Lets return to our top story now and the news that both of the uks main coronavirus vaccines are almost as effective against the indian variant of the disease as the existing, now dominant Kent Variant. The Health Secretary Matt hancock described the findings of the study by public Health England as Ground Breaking. Were joined now by professor adam finn, who sits on the Uksjoint Committee on vaccination and immunisation. Good morning. This is clearly great news, what do you make of the findings . I news, what do you make of the findinus . ~. , findings . I think it is very reassuring findings . I think it is very reassuring that findings . I think it is very reassuring that the i findings . I think it is very i reassuring that the vaccines are continuing to work other i dont think we expected them to completely collapse. I think we should qualify the results by pointing out that is the results by pointing out that is the reduction in effectiveness after two doses and quite a measurable one after one dose so i think there is pause for thought here there is a slight adjustment to be made but encouraging use that the vaccines still work, absolutely. What encouraging use that the vaccines still work, absolutely. Still work, absolutely. What does this study tell still work, absolutely. What does this study tell us still work, absolutely.

It tells us that the | new version of the virus, the 6172 that evolved in india has evolved slightly at least after two doses. After one dose, combining the two vaccines together because there are not so many results yet there is a slightly bigger drop so it really emphasises the importance now for people coming through for the second doses to come through and get them. Is there any possibility the findings of this study might result in people being called back sooner for second door� s . We in people being called back sooner for second doors . In people being called back sooner for second doors . We have already adusted for second doors . We have already adjusted that for second doors . We have already adjusted that forward for second doors . We have already adjusted that forward a for second doors . We have already adjusted that forward a little for second doors . We have already adjusted that forward A Little Bit. I adjusted that forward A Little Bit. There is a downside to that because the size of the boost the response you get to the second dose increases as you increase the interval between the two doses so there is a bit of a Balancing Act there and the logistics of the operation mean you cantjust immunise everyone all at once so i think coming forward A Little Bit earlier at eight or nine weeks after the first dose which is what were doing is probably about the right balance. The what were doing is probably about the right balance. What were doing is probably about the right balance. The indian strain does appear the right balance.

We are getting cautiously optimistic it is not a massive rise but it will take a little longer to get more confident around that so its a slightly more infectious virus and it is slightly able to resist the immunity virus so it is a slightly worse situation than we would end before but not a disaster. In terms of our approach before but not a disaster. In terms of our approach to before but not a disaster. In terms of our approach to new before but not a disaster.

It is not clear at this point whether we will actually need to immunise children in order to get that population immunity that we have to get. If we do, it will be most likely to be teenagers and of course we need to identify clearly children who are at high risk of serious infection because they need to be prioritised as well. I think it is relatively unlikely that we will need to immunise young children preschool our primary children but that remains a possibility as well, i guess. Remains a possibility as well, i cuess.

It may be better for children this country if vaccines are to stop outbreaks like the massive outbreak in india which then get imported into this country and then provide a threat to them and their schooling. So we need to think globally and notjust domestically about that, i totally agree. In terms of the 21st ofjune, the date terms of the 21st ofjune, the date that i think lots of people are looking forward to when we are hoping perhaps that life might feel a lot more normal, what is your view of that date now, is everything on track for the 21st ofjune .

That must be a Relief Notjust to everyone but particularly in bolton. Absolutely and the Surge Vaccinations we are doing provides an extra boost to our team because we are working hard on the ground, to know what were doing is productive and i think now it is not just focusing on the first doses but really providing that extra boost towards second doses because as the research has shown it is the second door� s as well that really brings up the immunity to where we needed to be to keep the population the immunity to where we needed to be to keep the populatior be to keep the population absolutely underl inc be to keep the population absolutely underlying that be to keep the population absolutely underlying that it be to keep the population absolutely underlying that it might be to keep the population absolutely underlying that it might underlining l underlying that it might underlining the importance of the second door� s.

People that small area in their 305 and 7000 people in their 405. People in their 805 in that area there are about 900 people. So ma55ive differences between younger and older Populations 5o differences between younger and older populations so it is really important we engage with those young people and include them to come forward for vaccination. I think thatis forward for vaccination. I think that is happening now and we are making some headway. We have really had to notjust provide a Vaccination Site on a testing site, we have had to get into those communities by doing lots of things like Community Engagement with faith leaders and community groups, by knocking on doors and really getting into the communities to sort of build that trust and communication. Really good to hear from you this morning, thanks for talking to us and best of luck as the roll out continues in bolton. Heres sarah with a look at this mornings weather. Some rumours which are hopefully going to be delivering a5 some rumours which are hopefully going to be delivering as we head through to the Bank Holiday Weekend. Eventually things look drier and more warm as well and we are heading quite close to meteorological summer. Forthat quite close to meteorological summer. For that we have sherry weather over the next couple of days. Today some of us start off with blue Sky And Sunshine and this is the picture in kent at the moment. Weather with showers over the next couple of days. Rain is moving west to east over the course of the day and the cloud increasing, rain arriving and the wind picking up rain arriving and the wind picking up due to low pressure moving from the atlantic. It has been raining across Northern Ireland and showers are pushing into Western Scotland and wales. Further east it is dry at the moment. Some hazy Sunshine Blasting through the day about North And East scotland and down towards the south of england but this band of Rain Moving and will be quite heavy and persistent particularly across wales and south West England. Squally wind and temperatures around 11 degrees. In sunny spells it could be 13 or 14 celsius. Heavy showers this evening across parts of Northern Ireland and into england and wales. Heavy showers behind the main band of rain and the Odd Rumble of thunder overnight. Rain will linger in the north of scotland but under clear skies elsewhere are fairly Cool Night so temperatures down to mid single figures are not quite as chilly as Last Night. Tomorrow low pressure still very much with us and driving our weather. So is rotating around this area of low pressure. Across england and wales it will be a day of sunshine and scattered and slow moving showers and rain across Northern Scotland and patchy Rain And Sun for scotland and northern later tomorrow. And sun for scotland and northern latertomorrow. Parts and sun for scotland and northern later tomorrow. Parts of northern England And North wales as well so not a complete write off stopped 13 degrees to 15 degrees top temperatures. Choose the another day of summer sunny spells but also scattered showers building through the day most likely across scotland in Eastern England but there could be rain in the South West as well. Some dry weather and between the showers and temperatures at 12 to 14 degrees. From wednesday onwards i am not promising things will be completely dry but as higher pressure builds in things looking more dry and settled than they have been and A Little Bit warmer. Temperatures in the south reaching about 20 degrees for the Bank Holiday Weekend. Dont shoot the messenger. She is the expert and not us. It is just proving we paid attention all morning. A bit of a case of Deja Vu. Focusing on the ones towards the Bank Holiday Weekend, thats all we asked for. Focusing on the warmth. Thousands of couples whose weddings have been delayed during the pandemic will now be able to celebrate their big day with up to 30 guests, thanks to the easing of restrictions this week. Fiona lamdin has been speaking to a Bride And Groom whose Wedding Date has been moved three times. Beth and toby have been waiting for this moment for two years. In March 2020 we went down to a venue and choose a date and it happened to be the 20th Of May. And we hoped and prayed between then and now, really. A5 of this week, 30 guests are now allowed inside the ceremony and although they still have to wear facemasks one of the other biggest Changes is that now beths father is able to walk her down the aisle. How does that feel, is that 0k . Yeah, it feels good. Others, though, havent been as lucky. All right . You look fantastic. Charlotte and her fiance have now moved their Wedding Date three times. So our original date was January The 2nd and then unfortunately with lockdown we had to move it to the 17th Ofjuly, so we are really, really hopeful and what we had to do was Change of venue, unfortunately. Today it is the hair and Make Up dress rehearsal. Theyve booked the 17th Ofjuly desperately hoping that in two months time restrictions will be lifted. Emma is also keeping her fingers crossed. Its been absolutely terrible. I didnt work for a whole year, had to put the mortgage on hold, its not just financially, its also the mental side of things as well. Had to get anotherjob, but now things are looking up and fully booked until november this year which is absolutely brilliant. So this is the Vivary Room in Taunton Registry office, normally it would be able to hold up to 40 guests. With the current restrictions and social distancing it can hold up to 12. There have been 20 sets of Changes'>Rule Changes to ceremonies since the first lockdown. Some couples have moved their Ceremony Date five, six times so far, so weve devised a new system for couples to get in Touch-and-register'>Touch And Register interest or ask for things to be amended and we have had around 6000 or so inquiries so far. I promise to give you my loving friendship. Beth and toby may have had to cut their Guest List in half, scrapped their first dance and cancel their honeymoon. You are now husband and wife, and toby, you may kiss your beautiful bride. But finally, after the long wait, they are officially mrand mrs ward. Flo how does it feel .

Were joined now by kay keane, the director of the institute of general Practice Management, who is herself a practice manager. Really distressing to see those words that i think some of the staff have heard when they are doing their dailyjob. I5 have heard when they are doing their dailyjob. Is it getting worse . It feels like it is, sally. We are kind of rumour rating why that might be. There is some thought that last year was sort of so different and pleasant and the staff are so well supported by the general public and then coming into the Vaccination Programme weve had volunteers working with us, directing traffic, directing patients. And we felt really loved by our community, but then the abuse continues within general practice. That line, if i die it will be your fault, is something that everybody was worked on a general practice has heard. find on a general practice has heard. And what sort of on a general practice has heard. And what sort of experiences have you had in yourjob . Had in your ob . Gosh. Well, ive worked in had in yourjob . Gosh.

Well, ive| worked in general practice since i was 19, so i think ive probably seen lots of things. Probably the most kind of monumental was quite recently when a gentleman didnt get what you wanted from a practice within my building and he returned within my building and he returned with six knives and decided to smash up with six knives and decided to smash up the building and threatened the staff. And really thats an extreme. What were talking about is that daily abuse that people get, who are just doing theirjob. Just doing their ob. Some people have that at just doing theirjob. Some people have that gp receptionists i just doing theirjob. Some people have that gp receptionists are i just doing theirjob.

I think youre in a I Situation where there is only a certain amount of resources and when you say protecting the gps, i think what they are actually doing is working with the patients. And if you think of that Reception Team on that front Desk Team as being your advocate, what we would ask everybody to do is be honest with those people. So if you are honest and tell them Whats Wrong, they are the best people to help you to access the right service first time. What about people who phone up or call in and perhaps dont want to tell the receptionist Whats Wrong . Sometimes im sure youre dealing with people in heightened states of emotion, anxiety, what sort of Training And Support with a medical receptionist get in order to deal with someone like that who perhaps cant say or doesnt want to see Whats Wrong and just wants to tell a doctor . Whats Wrong And Ust wants to tell a doctor . , Whats Wrong and ust wants to tell a doctor . , , a doctor . Yeah, we completely understand a doctor . Yeah, we completely understand that a doctor .

Yeah, we completely| understand that we know that if someone says they dont want to and they can talk to the doctor, thats absolutely fine. They might have to wait longer for that appointment because we cant prioritise it or know who would be the best person to see. For example, if it somebody who has got a particular problem that we have a clinician who is a Specialist Interest in that, then we would want to put them with that person and get them straight to that person. And more and more across the uk, so this Campaign Isntjust for england it is for all the uk, there are more and more professionals working in general practice and the doctor, the gp, is not always the right person to see for a particular condition. We know that now it is increasingly challenging, isnt it, to get face to face time with a gp in some situations. A lot of the time gps are, you know, having to use the phone basically to do their appointments in some situations. Can you understand that some people are frustrated by that and actually want to come in and sit in a room with a doctor and have a Conversation Face to face . , u, , to face . Yeah, we do completely understand to face . Yeah, we do completely understand that to face . Yeah, we do completely understand that when to face . Yeah, we do completely understand that when its to face . Yeah, we do completely understand that when its necessary, when the patient talks to the receptionist about what their issue is, so if they have a lump or perhaps a Skin Condition or something, then of course we will let them see their Gp Face to face. But that needs a lot of careful consideration because weve also got people coming into the practice who are extremely clinically vulnerable. And they may be sat in the same chair as somebody who has been in with a cough and cold or with another viral infection. There is also an awful lot of Cleaning And Preparation between patients. To that minimises the amount of patients that we can see. 50 we need to safeguard everybody, notjust the staff but also all of our patients. Its lovely to talk to you. Director of the institute of general Practice Management. Thank you very much indeed. Now the sport. We have an actual guest in the studio its been a great week for the Gb Team at the european swimming championships in budapest. After six days of racing, Gb Top the standings with 20 medals nine gold, seven silver and four bronze. Adam pety first, gold again yesterday in 50 metre breastroke. A brilliant swim. Lets have a quick look at that. You can talk us through how he did it. The bottom line is he is that good. Any time he gets on the block, he wins. The 50 Breast Stroke out of the two individual events he swims, is not so dominant but still you see their dominant enough. His World Record of 25. 9 seconds, this might sound stupid, but were still not seeing them at his best. They had trials three weeks ago and this is like a stepping stone towards tokyo.

The british public dont really know. Swimming is not on the tv all the time like football, but people dont realise how good he is. He is about 2. 5 faster than anybody else in history over 100 breaststroke. If you think of usain bolt and how dominant he was, obviously a runner, thats eight people behind him. When he says about being back in the trenches, what he means is the qualification when they are rested off, hes now back into that hard work, its like building the foundations to the skyscraper again. They will ease off come the olympic games. You skyscraper again. They will ease off come the olympic games. Come the olympic games. You talk about the distance come the olympic games.

Im five foot nine, i think thats all right. I think the average height in the studio is quite tall this morning sally is off to read the news for andrew marr. Now sarah is the weather. Things are going to be turning more wet and windy as we head through the day. Its quite chilly first thing. The air is still quite cool for the time of year. Right start, but the cloud already moving on from the west and some of us have some rain first thing. We will all see before the day is out and thats all down to this area of low pressure, so it is moving its way in from the atlantic. Quite an active cold front, so the ring quite heavyin active cold front, so the ring quite heavy in the west, especially later on. Some servers for Northern Ireland and Western Scotland, down over wales and the west of england. In the east and the south of england, quite a sunny day. This Rain Moving into the west will be quite heavy and persistent and will bring some squally winds with it, so not particularly pleasant conditions across wales, south West England and Western Scotland today. Only about 11 degrees under that band of rain, but further east you could see 13 or 14 but further east you could see 13 or 1a celsius. Through this evening and tonight, the main band of rain will clear its way slowly eastwards, still lingering across parts of scotland, but some showers moving in behind it as well. Under the clear skies, a fairly chilly night to come. Temperature is not quite as low as the past night, but still down to mid single figures quite widely. We saw of monday then with low pressure is still very much with us, sitting right on top of the uk. Not too many isobars through central areas, and that means not too much wind. Some of the showers could be heavy and slow moving over parts of england and wales. Hail and thunderstorms possible for many others. Some patchy rain for Southern Scotland and Northern Ireland later in the day. Still only about 13 or 1a degrees at best. As we head into tuesday, its going to be another day of some sunshine and again some heavy showers. Most frequent for scotland and Eastern England, too. Temperatures on tuesday about 12 14 , but bear with the weather because from about mid week onwards it does look A Little Bit more optimistic. Higher Pressure Building so at last something A Little Bit drier and also a Touch warmer as we look towards the Bank Holiday Weekend. Back to you, ben. A Touch warmer. Thats all i needed to hear sarah, thank you. Lovely to see you. We all know that hollywood loves an underdog, but what about an under horse . Toni collettes new film, Dream Horse is the true story of an unlikely racehorse who was raised by a group of friends on an allotment in south wales, and went on to win the welsh grand national. Nelli bird has been to meet some of the real people involved in his amazing story. I need something to look forward |to when i get up in the morning. | im going to breed a race horse. And im going to play Fly Half for wales. It was a dream that even her husband thought was crazy, the story that unfolded perfect for the silver screen. So jan, this is where it all started, where the dream started . This is the allotment near blackwood in south wales were dream was born and where jan still keeps horses. My father was a Coal Miner and i was born and raised in a little village just up the road. Soto imagine that my life was going to be played out by an a listed actor, its just unbelievable. In the beginning, i couldnt really see a story there, but when you sit down and think about it, it really is a sort of fairy tale, i suppose. The film tells the story of a group of friends who each paid £10 a week to own dream allowance. To own Dream Alliance. Despite a series of setbacks that even hollywood didnt need to exaggerate, he went on to win the welsh grand national in 2009. I wasnt sure we should carry on after that. In the film, Toni Colette plays jan. Theres something about this thats so impactful to me. I im such a sucker. Its just a story about these honest, decent, normalfolk coming into their own for a minute. Its gorgeous so what is it like to see your life played out on screen . Surreal you are looking at it and thinking, do i do that . Do i really do that . Another member of the syndicate is howard davies, and in the film he is played by damian lewis. Thats probably the most surreal part of the whole episode. But i think overall its the celebration of the horse that matters most to us. I think what a lot of people forget is that Dream Alliance has been retired for nine years, but he just keeps giving. And the syndicate goes on. They all now own this horse called a little faith, known as elsie, and hope she might be a winner. And so when you consider that we started at the start of the century with our little savings of £10 a week and were still going today, 21 years on, waiting for elsie who decided to exit at the wrong time. Thats the sequel then, is it . It should be, shouldnt it could well be. The film will get its premiere this evening, at the local cinema in blackwood. It goes on general release next month. For only the second time ever, the Uk Entry for the Eurovision Song Contest failed to get a single point.

But he was up against some powerful songs and very diverse songs. You never know how the voting is going to go. He should hold his head up high and we should not come out of eurovision in my opinion because its the mostjoyous evening of the entire year, musically, in my opinion. So, you know, ijust loved it.
