in pakistan next month. the ecb have cancelled the men's and women's tours over concerns of player welfare and about travel to the region. good morning, some mist and fog around and some of it dense in the south—east. that will lift and for much of the country, dry with sunny spells, but it will cloud overlaid to in the north—west with light rain or drizzle. it's tuesday, september 21st. our top story. energy price caps, which help prevent consumers paying too much for gas and electricity, will remain in place despite some firms claiming the system is not sustainable. surging wholesale gas prices have caused four suppliers to go bust, with four more on the brink. in a joint statement last night, the business secretary kwasi kwarteng and industry regulator ofgem said the caps will remain — as jon donnison reports. the government insists there is no question of the lights going out this winter, but as energy prices soar, some are worried. my bills are already at breaking point and then going into the winter, i've got a daughter and, obviously, myself, and it's a worry, it's a real big worry. the only way to sort of you know, we are going to have to heat the house, because we can't be cold, so we are going to have because we can't be cold, so we are going to have to basically cut back on food. and food supply issues will be beyond the agenda when the government meets with the food and drink federation later today. the huge spike in energy prices means c02 gas suppliers have shutdown production. the soft drinks association now says they only have a few days supply of carbon dioxide left. and meat producers have warned of price rises within the week, if slaughterhouses can't get enough access to c02. high demand for gas as the global economy picks up, coupled with a reduced supply, are behind a surge in wholesale gas prices. but after an emergency meeting with energy firms, the government, alongside the industry regulator ofgem, reiterated last night there would be no question of removing the cap that stops suppliers passing on those wholesale price rises to consumers. it protects and has protected millions of customers from sudden increases in global prices. this winter. we are committed to that price cap and it will remain in place. that means more small energy supplier is unable to turn a profit will likely go bust. the government says it's considering offering state—backed loans to those that survive, but insists it will not be bailing out failed companies. john donnison, bbc news. let's get more on this now with nina. this sounds like bad news for the smaller energy firms but how will it affect consumers? the energy storm has seen the wholesale price go through the roof. yesterday we talked about providers going bananas did the government would bail them out and the answer was a firm no with kwasi kwarteng saying there would be no reward for failure or mismanagement and the taxpayer should not prop up companies with flawed business models. they said they would guarantee loans to larger companies that absorbed the customers. they said integral was the energy can't stays in place, so a limit as to how much you pay on a variable rate which is controversial in the industry. they say it is limited, they cannot make more money in a crisis. and households will now end “p crisis. and households will now end up paying more for energy because cheap deals are missing from the market and the hike for variables is about to kick in and there might be another in the spring. what should you do if your provider has gone bump or you you do if your provider has gone bump oryou are you do if your provider has gone bump or you are concerned they might? do not panic. what you should do while you are waiting to see who your provider is is get a metre reading, take a photograph, look online and your accounts, paper bills, make sure you have them to hand, anything that make sure you get a fair deal when you end up with a new provider. it is likely your prices will go up. you will not get as good a deal as the one you are on, probably. as competition falls, we are set to pay more for energy and there is a warning that those on prepayment metres will end up seeing the biggest hikes in prices. i got a text last night to say i was moving company and they contacted with details about how much more i will have to pay. and people are waiting to see how much that will be. thanks. plenty more on that later. a vigil has taken place for a woman and three children who were found dead at a house in derbyshire. hundreds of people gathered in the village of killamarsh, near sheffield, to lay flowers and messages of condolence in memory of terri harris, her 13—year—old sonjohn—paul, her 11—year—old daughter lacey, and lacey's friend connie gent, who was also 11. a 31—year—old man is being held on suspicion of murder. borisjohnson will meet president biden at the white house today to discuss topics including climate change, trade and the situation in afghanistan. it's the first time a british prime minister has met a president at the white house since theresa may visited donald trump there in 2017. our political correspondent helen catt reports on the build—up to another historic meeting. it was all smiles in the sunshine when borisjohnson metjoe biden in person for the first time just three months ago at the g7 summit in cornwall. mrjohnson says he hasn't had much of a chance to get to know the us president, but he says they have a genuinely terrific relationship and see eye to eye on all sorts of things. he'll be hoping the reception is as warm when they meet in the oval office in the white house later. what would have been one of borisjohnson�*s key requests has already been fulfilled. in a surprise move yesterday, the us lifted its travel ban on uk citizens. but other issues could be more difficult. borisjohnson is expected to push the us to increase its climate commitments ahead of november's crucial climate change summit cop26, which will take place in glasgow. it's the moment when we have to grow up and take our responsibilities. i think we go through, you know, a period of glorious indifference about the world. we've been through that, we've been through our childhood, if you like. we've now got to realise that this is a problem that requires grip. the two men are also expected to discuss the situation in afghanistan after the two countries withdrew troops. and what about a trade deal? borisjohnson has been pretty downbeat about the chances of that happening quickly. he told reporters that american negotiators were pretty ruthless and that he would rather get a deal that works for the uk than get a quick deal. borisjohnson is meeting several world leaders this week, but this meeting will certainly be the most closely watched. helen catt, bbc news. we'rejoined now by our chief political correspondent, adam fleming. adam, lots to discuss for the two leaders there — how much of an impact will borisjohnson be hoping to make? some of the winds are stacking up for the uk already, being part of the us — australia security pact, the us — australia security pact, the fact transatlantic travel will start again in november and also, whenjoe biden speaks to the united nations meeting today, lots of speculation he will increase the us contributions to less rich countries to fight climate change is part of the process leading up to the climate change conference the uk will host in glasgow in november. i think that will be chalked up as another diplomatic win for the uk, although it might be as much about us interests as british. speculation in the other direction the us is not that impressed by the uk's chairmanship of the conference so far. i always think back to big meetings between british prime ministers and american presidents. rather than the big diplomatic staff it is the personal stuff we remember. remembertony it is the personal stuff we remember. remember tony blair and george w bushjoking remember. remember tony blair and george w bush joking about using the same toothpaste, gordon brown getting into the golf cart and george w bush drove off fast. david cameron going to a basketball game with barack obama. and last time in the white house, theresa may's face when donald trump grabbed her hand to walk down that rant. i when donald trump grabbed her hand to walk down that rant.— to walk down that rant. i wonder what pictures — to walk down that rant. i wonder what pictures we _ to walk down that rant. i wonder what pictures we will— to walk down that rant. i wonder what pictures we will see - to walk down that rant. i wonder what pictures we will see later. l what pictures we will see later. high—power memories there. the ministry of defence has apologised for a data breach which may have compromised the safety of dozens of afghan interpreters who worked for british forces. more than 250 people seeking relocation to the uk — many of whom are in hiding — were mistakenly copied into an emailfrom the mod, in which their names and some profile pictures were visible. defence secretary ben wallace has launched an investigation into how the breach occurred. the duke of york has been served with a sexual assault lawsuit after the relevant paperwork was delivered to his us lawyer, according to his accuser�*s legal team. virginia giuffre is seeking damages after claiming prince andrew sexually assaulted her, which he vehemently denies. earlier this month, miss giuffre's lawyers tried to serve the paperwork by leaving it with police officers guarding the royal lodge in windsor — but the prince's legal team argued it was not a valid method of serving legal documents. police have launched a fresh appeal for information 20 years after the torso of a young nigerian boy was found in the river thames. it is believed his death may have been a ritualistic killing. detectives called the boy adam, but his identity is still unknown. 0ur correspondent angus crawford has the story. a warning that some viewers may find his report distressing. just ten days after 9/11, a grim discovery in the river. nicknamed adam, he was believed to have been sacrificed in a ritualistic killing. and last saturday they placed a wreath in the river at the spot where his body was found. the torso of an african boy, his head and limbs removed, murdered in some kind of ritual. there were raids, arrests and scientific breakthroughs, but the boy has never been identified, no one ever charged with his murder. a source of real regret for one former officer in the case. the fact that we weren't able to prosecute is very frustrating. which is why the met is launching a new appeal for witnesses, asking people who stayed silent then to be bold and come forward now. a cemetery in east london, a cross with no name. adam's final resting place. 20 years on, i wish that we knew the identity of adam, his parents. you know, he is, in reality, a missing child from a family who probably don't know that he is here. hope, then, even after two decades, of finding both his killers and his real name. angus crawford, bbc news. the canadian prime ministerjustin trudeau is on course to win the snap general election he called, but without gaining the parliamentary majority he was hoping for. mr trudeau called the election in august, less than two years after his liberal party lost its majority in 2019. some votes are still being counted but the leader of the main opposition party has conceded defeat, paving the way for the liberals to form another minority government. a documentary has shed new light on what the duke of edinburgh was like as a father and grandfather. all of the duke's four children and grandchildren — but not the queen — took part in the programme, which will be broadcast on bbc one tomorrow. they portray prince philip as firm but fair, with a fondness for practicaljokes. 0ur royal correspondent nicholas witchell reports. as well as assisting - the queen, he has a separate and independentjob of his own. he ran his public life from this office in buckingham palace. he loved the latest technology. and, of course, he was famously forthright. he will always make everyone very clear where you stand. i think people find that refreshing, that they know that there's nothing else going on or there's no there's no games played. he's very upfront. he's very honest and he's very matter of fact. and he brought that same no—nonsense approach to most things, even to the royal family's barbecues, at which, inevitably, he took charge. he adored barbecuing. he turned that into an interesting art form. and if i ever tried to do it, i could never get the fire to light, or something. he'd say, "go away!" and the barbecues were the perfect place for practicaljokes. one of the games he used to enjoy playing when we used to go for family barbecues. instead of like a mustard pot, we had a squeezy mustard tube. and he used to take the lid off and put it in your hands. he gets you to hold it _ gets you to hold it in your hands and the lid's off. i and i can't remember exactly what he says, but he ends. up slamming your hands together. and then he'd squish your hands together to fire the mustard onto the ceiling. it went all over the ceiling. he used to get in a lot of trouble from my grandmother for covering most of the places we had lunch and things with mustard on the ceiling. i actually think the marks are still there. yeah, i think so. you know, he enjoyed those jokes. he enjoyed messing around with the children and kind of being a grandfather. the duke of edinburgh fondly remembered by his family, remembered by his family. nicholas witchell, bbc news. he would not get away with the mustard trick in my house. very naughty. we will chat with the person who put that together later in the programme to get an insight. we need to check on carol. we had an eventful morning yesterday. 0ur your right after flashed the dog was cheeky with you? can i apologise for laughing and not checking on your welfare immediately. no apology needed. flash and myself were fine. the weather today is not too shabby. for many, dry, sunshine, and that is the story the rest of the week especially in the south. tomorrow it will turn windy and cooler in the north. mr and fog, dense fog apart —— mist and fog. in parts of the south and east of ireland, and south scotland, they will tend to stay drive. temperatures 14—21, maybe 22 in the sunshine. 0vernight, clearskies in the south, a week where front sinking south with cloud and drizzle. a new one in the northwest overnight. that will be heavier rain with gusty winds. temperatures not too bad. 9—12. tomorrow, the autumn equinox, we have the rain in the north—west. still windy here. in the south, sam cloud, but dry weather and sunshine. if you go to the chelsea flower show, it is set fair —— some cloud. if you watched breakfast on friday you might have seen the pop star tom parker talking really frankly about living with brain cancer. tom was also looking forward to his old band — the wanted — getting together for their first public performance in seven years. that gig took place last night — and tim muffett was there to see it. cheering. for many, the most "wanted" tickets in town. really excited to be here, yeah! we've been there since day dot. we've been here from the start, yeah. we've been there from the start. we've been all over the country watching the wanted — - we were actually lucky enough to meet them, win one - of their competitions and go up to manchester and play- laser quest with them. you played laser quest with the wanted? yeah, with the wanted. # and if you know, how do you get up... one of the uk's biggest boy bands, back together after seven years for a very special cause. band member tom parker was diagnosed with a brain tumour last year. he recently announced that he's decided to stop his gruelling chemotherapy. i think it's going to be more emotional than we all think, and i think that's going to really hit home. this event isn'tjust about the wanted reforming, it's a way of raising money for causes close to tom parker's heart — stand up to cancer and the national brain appeal. it's quite close to my heart, tonight, because my sister—in—law passed away from cancer. that's another reason why we love that the wanted done this, as well. obviously, what tom parker's gone through, it's the exact same as what emily went through — like, they had the same brain tumour. and amongst the artists appearing as well as the wanted, a member of a former rival boy band. how important was it for you to come along today? huge — i mean, when i heard this story it really hit home because of how young we all are, and obviously we've known each other for a very long time, so i wanted to do everything i could to be here tonight. it's, yeah, its proper... this one proper cut you deep, to be honest with you. backstage at the royal albert hall, about to go on stage, and you're back together. how are you feeling? very excited. it feels pretty surreal. what have the rehearsals been like? the words, the dance moves — how has that been, getting back together again after seven years? well, when you've got a brain tumour, it's very difficult to try and rememberanything... oh, my god! so, yeah, that's been... for me, that's been real, real, really quite tough. it's hard enough, anyway. it's hard enough not doing it for seven years — - never mind, like, you know, you with all that going on. . to be honest, you always forgot... idid. and, to be fair, the dance moves have never really been there, - so we just kind of make it up as we go along _ please, go wild, for the wanted! cheering. music: all time low. # only thing i'll never know. # how do you get up from an all—time low? # i can't even find a place to start. # how do i choose between my head and heart? music: gold forever. # say my name like it's the last... # time. # live today like it's the last night. cheering. congratulations, congratulations. what an amazing performance. how was it to be back on stage together? absolutely incredible — the atmosphere was electric. it was mental. honestly, i don't think we've experienced anything like it, to be honest. i it was amazing — it's made my little| 14—year—old heart happy again, so... emotional! unreal, emotional! incredible. literally incredible. incredible. it feels more special, the fact that we were all together doing it, you know? and they're there — the boys are there to support me, and that's beautiful for me. it must have been really emotional. it was. there was a moment where i almost lost it, to be honest with you! and then i managed to pull it back. so amazing. it was the best thing ever. it was lovely to see tom, of all people, back on stage, doing what he does best. it was amazing. being in a band, a kind of a brotherhood, it's probably never felt more important to you. honestly. yeah, the boys have been like brothers, they really have. they've been there at low moments, they've been there at high moments, but that's what they're brothers for. boy band veterans. but a performance unlike any they've given before. tim muffett, bbc news, at the royal albert hall. that looked brilliant. absolutely brilliant. talking to tim afterwards and showing how important it was. the moment they came off stage and the response from the crowd. and the joy of the fans must be brilliant to see. there is some of that in the papers. let's take a look at today's papers. the energy crisis continues to dominate a number of the front pages. the i warns that taxpayers face footing the bill for energy firms which go bust. the telegraph reports that the business secretary — kwasi kwarteng — is under growing pressure from energy companies to scrap the price cap on bills. but he's insisted that the cap will remain in place. we will be asking him about that later on the programme. you could soon be able to request the right to work at home from yourfirst day in a newjob — that's according to the front page of the times. the paper says changes to the law are set to be announced this week. at the moment you can't request flexible working until you've been in a job for six months. and the guardian focuses on calls for the government to invest billions in children's mental health in england, after a landmark report found a fifth of youngsters are unhappy. we'll be speaking to the children's commissioner, dame rachel de souza, in about half an hour. i think we have time for a few. pylons, or world cup? both. a new shape pylon, normally those that you see in fiels. this is the new shape. look at that. that was my pylon impression. shaped like a t with diamond earrings either side. what is the thinking? the structure consists of a crosspiece. they were placed in a familiar lattice. they take up a smaller footprint than the lattice design. and they are shorter so less of an environmental impact. 116 of them will be installed on a route from hinkley point power station. the world cup. things they are doing for the next world cup in qatar. using two cruise ships to house 6000 fans, like party boats. they are trying to triple the number of bars for foreigners. they are trying to get acts like abba and lady gaga to perform. that is aiming high. even abba do not perform for abba. also an offence to drink in public places. you have to be over 21 to drink. at the moment they are unsure whether laws will change for the world cup. party boats, i am not sure about that. lava is continuing to flow on the spanish island of la palma after a volcano erupted on sunday. the molten rock has already destroyed at least a hundred homes — and local officials say it could trigger explosions and toxic gasses when it reaches the sea. our correspondent danjohnson sent this report from la palma. homes that once enjoyed views of this island's impressive volcanic landscape are now being smothered under it. the relentless downhill creep of molten lava burns its way through anything it touches. the eruption follows a week of tremors, but nobody has seen anything like this on la palma for half a century. "look, look, it's falling," the man says. another house destroyed. that's more than 100 now, either burned or buried. "eight metres of lava," he says. nobody can stop the larva and nobody can control where it goes. these are the strongest forces of nature at work in a spectacular but destructive display, and the only option is to get out of its way. translation: right now, the most important thing l is to guarantee security. we are still in the eruption phase. please, let's be extremely careful. so residents of four villages have been ordered to safety and some tourists have decided to go home. i am worried, or i am sorry for all the people who are losing or have already lost their houses. there is no good feeling now on this island and therefore we want - to leave as fast as possible. this is a disaster movie in slow motion. the lava keeps crawling towards the sea. spain's tourism minister sees an opportunity — a chance to entice tourists back to view the eruption from a safe distance, because nobody knows how long this will last. danjohnson, bbc news, la palma. incredible pictures. scary stuff. you're watching breafast. still to come on today's programme. we'll hear about a crisis in mental healthcare for young people in england and speak to the children's commissioner about why girls are twice as likely as boys to be unhappy with their mental health. time now to get the news where you are good morning from bbc london, i'm tolu adeoye. detectives have named a woman who was found dead in cator park in kidbrooke on saturday, as they appeal for anyone who saw anything suspicious to come forward. police believe 28—year—old sabina nessa was attacked at 8.30 on the previous evening, when the park was likely to have been used by dog walkers and joggers — but her body remained undiscovered. a man arrested on suspicion of murder has been released pending further enquiries. young people who survive cancer are at risk of missing out on the chance to have children in the future because fertility preservation services aren't adequately funded. that's according to a new study which includes research by the ucl hospital foundation trust. it's found certain treatments aren't always nhs—funded. lauren shute from high wycombe was 17 when she was diagnosed with cancer. she had ovarian tissue preserved — a procedure which was paid for by a charity. i know people who haven't had it, who hadn't heard of it, and i almost feel guilty bringing it up when someone who i know who's also gone through a similar experience hasn't had that, because it's allowed me to kind of move on from cancer and to not have it impact every single point in my life. it will impact my health forever, but to know that it hasn't affected my fertility as it could have — i'm so grateful every day for that. nhs england says all children with cancer should be advised about their options in line with clinical guidelines. the london—based firm pimlico plumbers has been sold to us home services group neighborly. the deal will see founder charlie mullins off—load his 90% stake. the company, which was established just over a0 years ago, employs more than 400 workers. let's take a quick look at the travel situation. for all other travel news, tune in to your local bbc radio station. onto the weather now with elizabeth rizzini. hello, good morning. it's set to be a fairly pleasant day of weather today across the capital — not as cloudy as it was yesterday, there'll be more in the way of sunshine, it will stay dry and it will feel warmer, too. but it's been quite a chilly early start to the morning, temperatures having dropped back into high single figures. still a bit of mist to lift and clear, but there will be some spells of sunshine emerging — we'll keep those sunny spells as we head into the afternoon. the winds stay light, and temperatures will peak in the low 20s in celsius — 21 or maybe even 22 degrees celsius. now, as we head through the evening and overnight, then the winds will pick up a touch so there won't be quite so much of an issue with mist and fog into wednesday morning. but still, temperatures dropping back as low as perhaps eight or nine degrees celsius in some of the rural spots. so locally, again, quite a chilly start to the day with lots of clear skies around. and then tomorrow, again, it's dry and its warm, there'll be a lot of sunshine around. it will turn windier again into the afternoon as that wind picks up. top temperatures again peaking at around 21 degrees. on thursday and friday, we start to draw in more of a northwesterly wind, but it should stay dry or mostly dry as we head through the rest of this week, with some more sunshine at times. i'm back with the latest from bbc london in half an hour. now, though, it's back to dan and sally. bye for now. hello, this is breakfast with sally nugent and

not. england due to i travel there, the men and women side, next month, but the tour has been cancelled and i think there will be a lot of frustration because they were travelling to pakistan and there has been frustration with a lack of cricket. pakistan will be frustrated because let's not forget they came here last summer when england were facing a black hole because of coronavirus and the lack of prayers and they made the trip but this time england will not be reciprocating that so there is some frustration. it would have been the first time the men had played in pakistan since 2005, for the women the first time ever following the terror attack on the sri lankan team bus in 2009 the announcement came just a few days after new zealand abandonned their matches in the country, because of what they called a "specific and credible threat". the ecb said their withdrawl was down to concerns over travel to the region but also to protect the mental and physical well being of the players. pakistan cricket, though, are not impressed. i'm extremely disappointed — so are the fans, actually. because, right now, we needed england, because it's a small cricket fraternity that we have. and so, in such times, we were expecting england tojust be a little bit more responsive and responsible, i guess. so we are hurt, but forward we shall move. staying with cricket, the former new zealand international, chris cairns says he's "facing possibly the greatest challenge" of his life after being left paralysed from a spinal stroke during a heart operation. the 51—year—old — regarded as one of the best all—rounders of his generation — needed emergency surgery at a hospital in sydney last month and was briefly on life support. he posted this message on social media. hi, everybody. just over six weeks ago, i suffered a type a aortic dissection, which essentially means there is a tear in one of the major arteries of the heart. i had several surgeries and grafts and, very thankfully, the specialists were able to save the heart itself. one of the complications that arose was a spinal stroke, which in itself will provide me with possibly the greatest challenge that i have ever faced in rehab, going forward. good luck to him and his recovery. all four home nations are in world cup qualifying action for the 2023 women's world cup tonight. all four won their first matches last week, scotland's women will make history as they play a world cup qualifier at hampden park for the the first time with the faroe islands the visitors to glasgow following a 2—0 win over hungary last week. for every home game, to be there, it is a huge boost, not just for us as players, to be able to play there, but for fans it is more attractive. it is a great day out for friends and family that want to come, and, yeah, just really happy that the scottish fa have made that decision. england thrashed north macedonia 8—0. it's luxembourg laterfor them — who are well down the women's rankings. there are still things that you can, you know, squeeze out of these games and still learn. because if you're coming off and you have not won your duel, still, and you're not doing the right things, it catches up. it's important that we do it now, so that we play better opposition. by all means, these games are still hard, because you've got to stay focused and switched on. after scoring six against kazakhstan, another win is expected in estonia tonight for wales. the team's never reached a major tournament before, they're currently second in their group, behind france. northern ireland's women will play at windsor park when they take on latvia later, looking to build on their 4—0 win over luxembourg on friday, with manager kenny shiels looking to the fans to play their part. and the countdown is well and truely on to the ryder cup. and the countdown is well and truly on to the ryder cup. the european team, led by captain padraig harrington, have arrived in wisconsin ahead

england — with one area having an average lag of eight months between referral and the first session of counselling. that's the finding of a bbc investigation, which has revealed that one in five patients waited longer than 12 weeks. our health correspondent sophie hutchinson has been meeting some of the parents who are desperate to get help for their children. her report contains some details which you may find upsetting. that feeling of helplessness. i can't even describe how awful, as a parent, is to see that. you're waiting for a service that you know could help your child. the desperate situation facing some parents with a mentally ill child. when things get tough, this is where sue comes — her teenage daughter, who has self—harmed, has been waiting for mental—health treatment for almost two and a half years. we don't know how long it's going to be before she receives help, but when she does receive that help, you know, we don't know now how she's going to engage with that because of the wait. and, as i say, you know, i do wonder if, as a result of those delays, you know, she might end up needing medication because the anxiety is now so high. it's estimated, in england, 1.5 million under—18—year—olds have a probable mental—health disorder. but in the year to 2021, the child and adolescent mental health service — camhs — sawjust under a third of them. and data obtained by the bbc from half of camhs' services in england suggests, since the pandemic, one in five have waited longer than 12 weeks — and in one area, the average wait was nearly nine months. your teachers here really, really care about you, and... some teachers are so concerned they're telling parents not to bother with camhs. the additional support for mental health is completely overwhelmed as things stand currently. when i have parents that are in a really desperate situation, i'm often reluctant to refer them on to these services because i know the length of time that they will wait. and sometimes there just isn't that opportunity to wait — you need that support right there, right then to try and help the child and the family. sandra — not her real name. her 16—year—old daughter has waited three years for treatment, despite attempting suicide 17 times. you get told to call the crisis team, who are never there in times of crisis because you can only have a crisis between 8am and 6pm. and then you get referred to adult services who just say "ring an ambulance". the government says, due to the pandemic, nhs staff are now treating more children and young people than ever before. and that, thanks to the nhs long—term plan, an additional 345,000 children and young people each year will get help. she can't imagine living her life in the way that she does. she can't imagine living her life feeling the way that she does. and so the consequence of having to wait this long is that it's done an awful lot of psychiatric damage to her, really. how painful is that to you? it's devastating. she is so talented. she's amazing at art and music. she's really creative. but when you are constantly trying to just keep your daughter alive another day, to hope that someone will give us some therapy... sorry. after five suicide attempts this summer, sandra's daughter was eventually referred for the therapy she needs. and sue's daughter — who's waited since october 2018 — has now been given an appointment. sophie hutchinson, bbc news. dame rachel de souza is the children's commissioner for england. she joins us from westminster. thank you for talking to us this morning. hugely distressing pieces that we just played their and we know that the story we've just been able to tell is probably reflected across the country. there are many, many families in situations like this at the moment. a huge concern is getting your child help when they need it. we knew things were bad, in fact they are worse than anybody thought. what is your reaction to that and what can be done? 50. thought. what is your reaction to that and what can be done? so, first off, my heart _ that and what can be done? so, first off. my heart goes _ that and what can be done? so, first off, my heart goes out _ that and what can be done? so, first off, my heart goes out to _ that and what can be done? so, first off, my heart goes out to those - off, my heart goes out to those parents and children and those stories they have just told us. i have just done a survey of over half a million of england's children and the single biggest concern that children have raised is their own mental health and well—being, especially coming out of the pandemic, so this is an issue that has got larger during the pandemic and not gone away. there are some really practical things that need to be done. nhs england need to prioritise catch—up funding they have got for children's mental health and i spoke to their new ceo of the nhs last week and i was speaking to providers and deliveries of services and we need to provide the children's mental health no question. the fact that children are telling us this up in our survey that we launch today makes it even more real. there are also some things that we can do to avoid problems getting to where these have got to. we need to be much better at the delivery and support of mental health in schools, and again, children and young people have told me, that is over half a million of them, that when they are feeling bad for when they are feeling anxious, where they want to get support first is in schools. that is with people that they trust. i am very keen on rolling out digital counselling as a first step, and that could be done very, very quickly. and the 2017 mental health green paper which has a roll—out of mental health teams into schools and into the community right across country, it is a ten year plan, i would like that speeded up year plan, i would like that speeded up because the pilots of those are going down very, very well. sol think we know what to do, i think things are moving but they need to move more quickly than ever because particularly of lockdown and children are telling us that they need this. i mean, one bit of reassurance is that 80% of children of that half a million children who responded said they personally feel happy and 0k, mental health is definitely the biggest issue for children, and they have raised it in this survey. it children, and they have raised it in this survey-— this survey. it is heartening that children do _ this survey. it is heartening that children do feel _

survey. it is heartening that. children do feel more able to talk about their mental health and maybe talk about how they feel, but sometimes this younger generation is criticised for perhaps not being tough enough. what do you say to that? it tough enough. what do you say to that? , , , that? it is very interesting. there was half a — that? it is very interesting. there was half a million _ that? it is very interesting. there was half a million respondents i that? it is very interesting. there i was half a million respondents have told me absolutely clearly, we are not a snowflake generation. we have just been through a global endemic and i will say they are a heroic generation. they have been through something really tough, they want to get back to school. they have told me that they want great careers, they want to work hard, they don't expect things to be easy, but they are far more literate. it is the first generation that is really literate about their mental health and well—being. we need to support them and the best way to do that is to deal with things early in schools, youth clubs, community hubs, mental health services in there, training our professionals who engage with students in recognising issues and dealing with them early. this is a great hard—working generation who care about each other. they have told me they care about the environment, they care about the environment, they care about the environment, they care about the community, they want to work hard and i think it is time for us to give them something back. he time for us to give

park in kidbrooke on saturday, as they appeal for anyone who saw anything suspicious to come forward. police believe 28—year—old sabina nessa was attacked at 8.30 on the previous evening when the park was likely to have been used by dog walkers and joggers. her body remained undiscovered for nearly 2a hours. a man arrested on suspicion of murder has been released pending further enquiries. young people who survive cancer are at risk of missing out on the chance to have children in the future because certain fertility preservation services aren't always funded by the nhs. that's according to a new study which includes research by the ucl hospital foundation trust. lauren shute from high wycombe was 17 when she was diagnosed with cancer. she had ovarian tissue preserved — a procedure which was paid for by a charity. i know people who haven't had it, who hadn't heard of it, and i almost feel guilty bringing it up when someone who i know who's also gone through a similar experience hasn't had that, because it's allowed me to kind of move on from cancer and to not have it impact every single point in my life. it will impact my health for ever, but to know that it hasn't affected my fertility as it could have — i'm so grateful every day for that. nhs england says all children with cancer should be advised about their options in line with clinical guidelines. the london—based firm pimlico plumbers has been sold to us home services group neighborly. the deal will see founder charlie mullins offload his 90% stake. the company which was established just over a0 years ago employs more than 400 workers. let's take a look at the travel situation. there are severe delays on the district line. all other lines are running well. for all other travel news, tune in to your local bbc radio station. onto the weather with elizabeth rizzini. hello, good morning. it's set to be a fairly pleasant day of weather today across the capital — not as cloudy as it was yesterday, there'll be more in the way of sunshine, it will stay dry and it will feel warmer, too. but it's been quite a chilly early start to the morning, temperatures having dropped back into high single figures. still a bit of mist to lift and clear, but there will be some spells of sunshine emerging — we'll keep those sunny spells as we head into the afternoon. the winds stay light, and temperatures will peak in the low 20s in celsius — 21 or maybe even 22 degrees celsius. now, as we head through the evening and overnight, then the winds will pick up a touch so there won't be quite so much of an issue with mist and fog into wednesday morning. but still, temperatures dropping back as low as perhaps eight or nine degrees celsius in some of the rural spots. so locally, again, quite a chilly start to the day with lots of clear skies around. and then tomorrow, again, it's dry and it's warm, there'll be a lot of sunshine around. it will turn windier again into the afternoon as that wind picks up. top temperatures again peaking at around 21 degrees. on thursday and friday, we start to draw in more of a northwesterly wind, but it should stay dry or mostly dry as we head through the rest of this week, with some more sunshine at times. i'm back with the latest from bbc london in half an hour. bye for now. good morning, welcome to breakfast with sally nugent and dan walker. our headlines today. a difficult winter ahead with soaring energy prices — but the government insists a price cap must remain in place to protect consumers. we are going to have to heat the house, because we can't be cold. so we are going to have to basically cut back on food. i'll look at what this means if you are already struggling to pay. and whether prices will go up for everyone. can, should, the government do more? a question we'll put to the business secretary kwasi kwarteng. the prime minister meets the president — climate change, afghanistan and a us trade deal are all up for discussion. mnd campaigners are asking for millions of pounds for research into the condition. england's cricketers won't play in pakistan next month. the ecb have cancelled the mens and womens tours over concerns of player welfare and about travel to the region. there is mist and fog patches around this morning. dense in the south—east and east anglia. they will lift and most will have a dry and sunny day. later, rain and drizzle coming to the north—west. it's tuesday, september 21st. our top story. energy price caps, which help prevent consumers paying too much for gas and electricity will remain in place despite some firms claiming the system is not sustainable. surging wholesale gas prices have caused four suppliers to go bust — with four more on the brink. in a joint statement last night, the business secretary kwasi kwarteng and industry regulator ofgem said the caps will remain — as jon donnison reports. the government insists there is no question of the lights going out this winter, but as energy prices soar, some are worried. my bills are already at breaking point, and then going into the winter, i've got a daughter and, obviously, myself, and it's a worry, it's a real big worry. the only way to sort of... you know, we are going to have to heat the house, because we can't be cold, so we are going to have to basically cut back on food. and food supply issues will be beyond the agenda will be be on the agenda when the government meets with the food and drink federation later today. the huge spike in energy prices means c02 gas suppliers have shutdown production. shut down production. the soft drinks association now says they only have a few days supply of carbon dioxide left. and meat producers have warned of price rises within the week, if slaughterhouses can't get enough access to c02. high demand for gas as the global economy picks up, coupled with a reduced supply, are behind a surge in wholesale gas prices. but after an emergency meeting with energy firms, the government, alongside the industry regulator ofgem, reiterated last night there would be no question of removing the cap that stops suppliers passing on those wholesale price rises to consumers. it protects and has protected millions of customers from sudden increases in global prices. we are committed to that price cap and it will remain in place. that means more small energy supplier is unable to turn a profit will likely go bust. the government says it's considering offering state backed loans to those that survive, but insists it will not be bailing out failed companies. john donnison, bbc news. let's get more on this now with nina. where will this hit consumers? that is the bi where will this hit consumers? t�*ué�*if is the big question. we asked yesterday, this perfect storm that has seen prices rocket, and what will happen to smaller businesses who cannot afford to buy in at that price, will the government pick up the tab? the answer yesterday was no. kwasi kwarteng said there would no. kwasi kwarteng said there would no —— be no reward for mismanagement and the government could not prop up companies with the flawed business model. he suggested underwriting loans for larger companies who take customers from companies that have failed. the energy price cap is integral, a limit to how much they can charge people on a variable rate. that is controversial in the industry because they say when prices go up they are limited how much they can charge customers. most households will pay more. the 12% hike for variable rates translates to £140 annually for the average household. and those on a different rate will not be able to shop around —— on a fixed rate will not be able to shop around. if you think your company has gone bump, do not panic, no one will cut off your supply. wait to see who your provider is and in the meantime get metre readings, a screen grab online of accounts, keep paper copies, so that when you move to a new provider you get the fairest deal possible. but brace yourself, it is unlikely anyone will get as good a deal when it comes to renewing contracts. there is concern for people on prepayment metres, often people who struggle financially and they might see the biggest increases. aha, financially and they might see the biggest increases.— financially and they might see the biggest increases. a

derbyshire. hundreds of people gathered in the village of killamarsh, near sheffield, to lay flowers and messages of condolence in memory of terri harris, her 13—year—old sonjohn—paul, her 11—year—old daughter lacey, and lacey's friend connie gent, who was also 11. a 31—year—old man is being held on suspicion of murder. borisjohnson will meet president biden at the white house today to discuss topics including climate change, trade and the situation in afghanistan. it's the first time a british prime minister has met a president at the white house since theresa may visited donald trump there in 2017. our political correspondent helen catt reports on the build—up to another historic meeting. it was all smiles in the sunshine when borisjohnson metjoe biden in person for the first time just three months ago at the g7 summit in cornwall. mrjohnson says he hasn't had much of a chance to get to know the us president, but he says they have a genuinely terrific relationship and see eye to eye on all sorts of things. he'll be hoping the reception is as warm when they meet in the oval office in the white house later. what would have been one of borisjohnson's key requests has already been fulfilled. in a surprise move yesterday, the us lifted its travel ban on uk citizens. but other issues could be more difficult. borisjohnson is expected to push the us to increase its climate commitments ahead of november's crucial climate change summit cop26, which will take place in glasgow. it's the moment when we have to grow up and take our responsibilities. i think we go through, you know, a period of glorious indifference about the world. we've been through that, we've been through our childhood, if you like. we've now got to realise that this is a problem that requires grip. the two men are also expected to discuss the situation in afghanistan after the two countries withdrew troops. and what about a trade deal? borisjohnson has been pretty downbeat about the chances of that happening quickly. he told reporters that american negotiators were pretty ruthless and that he would rather get a deal that works for the uk than get a quick deal. borisjohnson is meeting several world leaders this week, but this meeting will certainly be the most closely watched. helen catt, bbc news. we'rejoined now by our chief political correspondent, adam fleming. a lot to talk about. how much of an impact will borisjohnson be able to make in these discussions? that impact will boris johnson be able to make in these discussions?- make in these discussions? that is an interesting _ make in these discussions? that is an interesting question _ make in these discussions? that is an interesting question because i make in these discussions? that is an interesting question because ifl an interesting question because if you look at the two things boris johnson would describe as diplomatic wins, you have one yesterday which is the us decision to restart transatlantic travel for people from the uk and europe from november if double vaccinated. and it looks like when joe double vaccinated. and it looks like whenjoe biden speaks to the un today, he will commit more american money to the fight against climate change in the rest of the world, something the uk has pushed for ahead of the climate conference the uk is hosting in november. the uk would say those things have happened because of diplomatic pressure from borisjohnson. others would say those are things that would happen anyway because they are in the us national interest. you have the question about whether america does the stuff it will do anyway or does the stuff it will do anyway or does the british prime minister have influence the white house? i think the things that stick in your mind are the more human moments on these trips. back to that time gordon brown went to see george w bush. two characters like chalk and cheese. you have the moment when gordon brown got in the golf cart and george bush went

afghan interpreters who worked for british forces. more than 250 people seeking relocation to the uk — many of whom are in hiding — were mistakenly copied into an emailfrom the mod, in which their names and some profile pictures were visible. defence secretary ben wallace has launched an investigation into how the breach occurred. an earthquake measuring 3.8 in magnitude has struck the spanish island of la palma, where a volcano erupted on sunday. the authorities have sped up the evacuation of thousands of people and more than 100 homes have been destroyed by lava, which is continuing to flow. local officials say it could trigger explosions and toxic gasses explosions and toxic gases when it reaches the sea. the canadian prime ministerjustin trudeau is on course to win the snap general election he called — but without gaining the parliamentary majority he was hoping for. mr trudeau called the election in august, less than two years after his liberal party lost its majority in 2019. some votes are still being counted, but the leader of the main opposition party has conceded defeat, paving the way for the liberals to form another minority government. a new documentary about the duke of edinburgh's family life will air on bbc one tomorrow. most senior members of the royal family — including princes charles, william and harry, but not the queen — were interviewed for the programme. they shared memories of the duke as a "firm but fair" family man with a love of barbecues and practicaljokes. one of the games he used to enjoy playing was when we used to go forfamily barbecues. instead of like a mustard pot, we had a squeezy mustard tube. and he used to take the lid off and put it in your hands. he gets you to hold it. gets you to hold it in your hands and the lid's off. i and i can't remember exactly what he says, but he ends up slamming your hands together. and then he'd squish your hands together to fire the mustard onto the ceiling. it went all over the ceiling. he used to get in a lot of trouble from my grandmother for covering most of the places we had lunch and things with mustard on the ceiling. it sounds like you had a good mustard gag. and a big supply of mustard. we will talk to people who put that together. i think it is a record—breaking documentary. the most royals who have appeared in one programme. an incredible piece of television. morning, carol. good morning. the weather today is fairly settled for most and the next few days, for some, that will be the case, dry with sunshine. temperatures in the south—east by friday could be up to 24. it will turn windy and cooler in the north. today, you notice the wind picking up today, you notice the wind picking up in the far north—west. slowly easing tomorrow night and into the following day. this morning some mist and fog especially in east anglia and the south—east and also the south—western midlands. they will lift and there will be sunshine and dry weather. thicker cloud in north—west. introducing drizzle and light rain. and the wind gust to gale force. this evening and overnight, is still local gales across the north—west of scotland. a blustery night. weather front sinking south, taking cloud with it. ahead of it, under clear skies, it will be cool with a return of mist and fog. at the same time a new weather front will introduce heavy rain. that is how we start the day tomorrow. the rain slowly slipping southwards. still windy for time especially in parts of scotland to the east of the pennines. blustery further south but here you are likely to see most of the sunshine and behind the weather front a mixture of sunshine and showers. thanks. let's return now to our top story — and ministers and businesses will continue talks today to deal with effects of the ongoing gas crisis. from soaring energy bills to price hikes in food, our consumer affairs correspondent colletta smith explains what's gone wrong. how much you will have to pay for energy this autumn is still up in the air. the industry has been forking out three times the usual cost for gas. that means many firms are left in the red after tempting customers with low fixed prices, and the price cap stopping them boosting bills to make up the shortfall. with so many companies looking precarious, the pressure is mounting on the government. the taxpayer should not be expected to prop up companies that have poor business models and are not resilient to fluctuations in price. if your provider collapses, you will be automatically transferred to another. you will not lose any credit you have, but you might be charged a higher tariff. and manyjust can't afford it. i did just get a bill through and it's going up twice the amount we normally pay, so that's not great. wintertime will be the telling time, i think. it is notjust energy bills that will be going up thanks to the rising gas prices. manufacturers will be passing on those higher costs by charging us more for everything we buy, particularly for meat, where there has been such a crisis caused by the hike in gas prices, that we are likely to see prices go up within the week. so as the weather turns and the heating is flicked on more often, everyone's budgets will need to tighten. colletta smith, bbc news. let's explore this further with energy analyst ellen fraser and the food scientist kumud ghandi. good morning. there will be people watching today and the big question is i understand there is no —— there is i understand there is no —— there is a global gas issue but how will it hit me in a pocket? understandable concerns? entirely understandable. people are concerned about energy bills going into winter anyway. it is a topic front of mind. people coming from covid have tight finances anyway. in the short—term people will be protected who are on fixed tariffs. the price cap will go up fixed tariffs. the price cap will go up in october but that has been relatively well signposted by government. short—term, prices will government. short—term, prices will 9° up government. short—term, prices will go up but it's manageable. the debate is what happens in the medium term and the extent to which government might step in to help suppliers manage prices to get through the price hikes. we suppliers manage prices to get through the price hikes. we have a selection of _ through the

nitrogen is about shelf life, about giving us longevity of food. typically, food packaged in a modified atmosphere would give us 21 days of shelf life as opposed to perhaps five days if it was non—modified. what we could do is look at buying locally, from butchers, where meat is not in a packaged form, buying from greengrocers, localfarm shops, directly from farms, where it does not have to go into packaging. buying loose lettuce like this is greener and will last longer. typically, that would last in your fridge for a number of days than the packaged, because once you open the package,

bringing in the food. he is hungry. you can take the cabbage. too early for cabbage. it felt like we were talking about it for a long time but the vaccine roll—out for healthy 12 to 15—year—olds is now under way in most of the uk. let's get an idea of what the different nations of the uk are doing. vaccinations have already started in hundreds of schools in england and scotland. invites are also being sent out in wales this week, while in northern ireland they are likely to be offered from next month. around three million children in that age group are eligible for one dose of the pfizer vaccine. we can hear now from a couple of teenagers in that 12—to—15 group who got their covid jabs yesterday. it wasn't too bad? no. where i have got older... i've got grandparents. i'd love to be safe around them and spend time with them and be safe. they are all happy, because it allows you to go out without the worry of becoming more ill from covid—19. we're nowjoined by the headteacher of chase terrace academy in burntwood, nicola mason. good morning. lovely to speak to you. we'd talk to ministers about how they feel the vaccine roll—out will work and it's great to speak to you on the

vaccine so that we have a provisional plan in place for when the vaccine was approved, which we expected. ourjob is now to make sure families have the right information, talk to staff to make sure we

educate and make sure children make an informed decision with the family. some parents are worried because i think parents are worried because i think parents have been put in a difficult position because of the way the vaccine wasn't approved initially, solely on health benefits which they said was marginal. it is a difficult choice but we respect it is their choice but we respect it is their choice to make. some parents have said they will not send their children in, for example. i do not know if you _ children in, for example. i do not know if you have _ children in, for example. i do

would like it but parents are not sure all parents say the child should have it and the child has a different decision. how have you been coping with that situation? what we would normally do in programmes of vaccination is children go to where we set up the vaccination centre and talk to the nhs professional who will check at that point whether they have consent. we will make sure staff are checking that first level of consent so that if children of families have not consented, they do not go to the vaccination centre. it provides extra assurance to families they are in control of the decision. if they have not given consent it will be down to the nhs professionals to talk to families about vaccinating their child. , , , ., , ., their child. this must be a strange start to the _

morning from bbc london, i'm tolu adeoye. detectives have named a woman who was found dead in cator park in kidbrooke on saturday — as they appeal for anyone who saw anything suspicious to come forward. police believe 28—year—old sabina nessa was attacked at 8.30 on the previous evening when the park was likely to have been used by dog walkers and joggers. the primary school teacher's body remained undiscovered for nearly 24 hours. a man arrested on suspicion of murder has been released pending further enquiries. young people who survive cancer are at risk of missing out on the chance to have children in the future because certain fertility preservation services aren't always funded by the nhs. that's according to a new study which includes research by the ucl hospital foundation trust. lauren shute from high wycombe was seventeen when she was diagnosed with cancer. she had ovarian tissue preserved — a procedure which was paid for by a charity. i know people who haven't had it, who hadn't heard of it, and i almost feel guilty bringing it up when someone who i know who's also gone through a similar experience hasn't had that, because it's allowed me to kind of move on from cancer and to not have it impact every single point in my life. it will impact my health forever, but to know that it hasn't affected my fertility as it could have — i'm so grateful every day for that. well, nhs england says all children with cancer should be advised about their options in line with clinical guidelines. the london—based firm pimlico plumbers has been sold to us home services group neighborly. the deal will see founder charlie mullins offload his 90% stake. the company, which was established just over 40 years ago, employs more than 400 workers. let's take a quick look at the travel situation... for all other travel news, tune in to your local bbc radio station. onto the weather now with elizabeth rizzini. hello, good morning. it's set to be a fairly pleasant day of weather today across the capital — not as cloudy as it was yesterday, there'll be more in the way of sunshine, it will stay dry and it will feel warmer, too. but it's been quite a chilly early start to the morning, temperatures having dropped back into high single figures. still a bit of mist to lift and clear, but there will be some spells of sunshine emerging — we'll keep those sunny spells as we head into the afternoon. the winds stay light, and temperatures will peak in the low 20s in celsius — 21 or maybe even 22 degrees celsius. now, as we head through the evening and overnight, then the winds will pick up a touch so there won't be quite so much of an issue with mist and fog into wednesday morning. but still, temperatures dropping back as low as perhaps eight or nine degrees celsius in some of the rural spots. so locally, again, quite a chilly start to the day with lots of clear skies around. and then tomorrow, again, it's dry and its warm, there'll be a lot of sunshine around. it will turn windier again into the afternoon as that wind picks up. top temperatures again peaking at around 21 degrees. on thursday and friday, we start to draw in more of a northwesterly wind, but it should stay dry or mostly dry as we head through the rest of this week, with some more sunshine at times. i'm back with the latest from bbc london in an hour. now, though, it's back to dan and sally. bye for now. hello, this is breakfast with sally nugent and dan walker. the energy price cap is here to stay. that's the promise from the government and industry regulator ofgem. but with four small energy firms going bust — and others on the brink — what happens to people who find themselves forced to use a new supplier? joining us now is the business secretary kwasi kwarteng. good morning, mr kwarteng, great to have the programme. i want to start by reflecting a little on what he said yesterday in westminster, that the lights will not go out this winter, but you have said we are in the midst of a global crisis. how are you going to keep the lights on? one of the things i said yesterday was that we actually have a very robust and diverse source of supply, gas supply, in the uk, and a lot of the conversation has been focused on the conversation has been focused on the energy suppliers. so the fact that we have something like 50, 55 different energy suppliers, and the difficulty is that some of those suppliers will face. i have always said that our first principle is the security of supply and also protecting customers, particularly in vulnerable customers, from massively increased global prices because it is a global issue we are facing. because it is a global issue we are facina. ., , ., because it is a global issue we are facina. ., i. ~ , , facing. how

that is a process that already exists —— failing companies. what we have to remember is that every winter about five to eight suppliers over the last three orfour eight suppliers over the last three or four years eight suppliers over the last three orfour years since i have been in thejob have orfour years since i have been in the job have exited the market and there is a process in place already focused most of their failing companies to move suppliers, that is something try and test it. what is different this year is that the numbers of those countries that people are saying, they think, it will be higher than the usual five to eight and that is why we have contingency plans to make the supplier of last resort process more robust. ., ., ., , _ ., robust. you are happy to let those firms

years every winter we have suppliers which exit the market, which failed for various reasons and we don't fail those out, we simply transfer their customers and other companies. let’s customers and other companies. let's look at the bigger— customers and other companies. let's look at the bigger picture for the winter coming up at the moment. we have an energy crisis, labour and members of your own party are warning of a triple whammy of rising taxes, rising fuel costs, and of course the end of universal credit. all of those things will happen in very short space of time, leaving people even more vulnerable so you are right to mention the national insurance , . ., , , insurance price, tax rise. of course that kicks in _ insurance price, tax rise. of course that kicks in in — insurance

are also right to say that we face a global energy spike in terms of prices, but i have said that there are mechanisms in place now to protect consumers, i have been very clear that the energy price cap is staying, even though some energy companies, i read today, iasking for it to be removed. i have been very clear that this staying. protecting customers. we have the warm homes discount, winter fuel payments, which again focused on our most vulnerable customers so we are completely focused on helping vulnerable customers through this winter, particularly with regard to energy prices quite

universal credit is an issue for the chancellor and the work and pensions secretary. i am speaking to them a great deal about it but i'm focused on the fuel poor and protecting people from rising energy prices, thatis people from rising energy prices, that is what i am 100% engaged with. i appreciate that, but looking at the bigger picture, universal credit is part of this picture. there are some members of your own party who think that this will only add to the problem that we have over the coming months. what do you think about potentially keeping the current status of universal credit going? 50 status of universal credit going? sr we are coming from a global pandemic, this is context, where we have spent something like £350 billion, a huge amount of money, one year. there has been massive support for the economy, massive support for workers, people on the furlough scheme. there was a debate as to how long we can continue to afford this. i am very, very focused on protecting the most vulnerable, elderly people, who are exposed to fuel poverty, and the government is resolutely focused on that. the debate about universal credit, you will know, is a wider debate within government and is the responsibility for the treasury, and i will not second—guess or undermine their position. second-guess or undermine their osition. .,, ., , second-guess or undermine their

process called the solar process —— eight solr process. the supplier of last resort. five to eight suppliers typically exit the market in the winter. we use the supplier of last resort to get the customers from one failing company to a larger company. the support we give will be related to the number of companies that exit the market. i cannot give you that number, i cannot give you that number, i cannot tell you on the 21st of september, today, how many of these companies will exit the market and, clearly, that number is going to effect how the supplier of last resort works so taxpayer money will not be used to failing companies, but it sounds from what you are saying like it might be used to bolster companies that do manage to keep afloat. so the one difference is that any support for those larger companies will be in terms of working capital, it will be at the loan. it will not be a blank cheque, i grant, it will be something where, if we do have this facility, if we do have this policy, they will be expected to pay back the loan, whereas in the case of a bailout, thatis whereas in the case of a bailout, that is what it is, a bailout where you've grant money,

it was the wording of the statement that came up from the ecb, because new zealand pulled out and then it was perhaps inevitable that england will do the same but it seems it is more about the physical and mental well—being of the players because they will go into that bubble environment in pakistan in the world cup going forward. it is tricky. i think pakistan will be utterly disappointed because they were here last summer, when england needed them, but england seemingly not going to reciprocate. international relation issues. _ going to reciprocate. international relation issues. a _

for the first time since 2005, were using the matches as as preparation for the 2020 world cup. i'm extremely disappointed — so are the fans, actually. because, right now, we needed england, because it's a small cricket fraternity that we have. and so, in such times, we were expecting england tojust be a little bit more responsive and responsible, i guess. so we are hurt, but forward we shall move. you get the sense of frustration that the pakistan football properties bought are feeling. —— cricket board. staying with cricket, the former new zeland international, chris cairns, says he's "facing possibly the greatest challenge" of his life after being left paralysed from a spinal stroke, during a heart operation. the 51—year—old — regarded as one of the best all—rounders of his generation — needed emergency surgery at a hospital in sydney last month and was briefly on life support. he posted this message on social media. hi, everybody. just over six weeks ago, i suffered a type a aortic dissection, which essentially means there is a tear in one of the major arteries of the heart. i had several surgeries and grafts and, very thankfully, the specialists were able to save the heart itself. one of the complications that arose was a spinal stroke, which in itself will provide me with possibly the greatest challenge that i have ever faced in rehab, going forward. good luck to him. and the european ryder cup team must be feeling ready for action come friday. come on! this was them jetting out in style, tommy fleetwood at the front there heading out to wisconsin. and

visiting downing street today. it isa it is a big day for them. they'll be delivering a petition calling for £50 million of funding for targeted research into motor neurone disease, which all three of them are living with. nicola waters will be with them — she was diagnosed with mnd two years ago. shejoins us now from essex, while here in the studio we have campaigner cris hoskin, who lost six family members to the disease, and professor chris mcdermott, one of the neurologists leading the call for funding. good morning to you. nicola, let's come to you first. good morning. great to have you on the programme. you are first diagnosed two years ago, so give us an idea of the changes that you and your family have all been through in those last two years. i have all been through in those last two ears. ., , ., two years. i went to the gp two ears two years. i went to the gp two years ago _ two years. i went to the gp two years ago with _ two years. i went to the gp two years ago with

a limp and after seeing a neurologist i was diagnosed with motor neurone disease, which is obviously completely devastated. since then i find it now very difficult to walk, to stand up, to use my arms. to help my kids do things that mum usually does with them, so it's been very difficult. nicola, as you say, the diagnosis is simply devastating and i know for many people who are diagnosed, straightaway, there isn't a huge amount of information out there, and not a huge amount of support. what was that like for you when you are diagnosed, how much were you told, how much did you know? i diagnosed, how much were you told, how much did you know?— diagnosed, how much were you told, how much did you know? i already had known it to people _ how much did you know? i already had known it to

had both died very quickly, so for me, when i found out, it was really a case of this will be my last christmas with the kids, the last christmas with the kids, the last birthday. so it was very frightening. i have a fantastic team that look after me, a fantastic neurologist, but they are very limited because there are no treatments, there is nothing they can do for you, so i think that is the frustration i feel, and which the frustration i feel, and which the people who have signed this letter, the hundreds of people, the frustration we feel, and to be scared, as well, really scared about the future. , ., the future. cris, we mentioned in the future. cris, we mentioned in the introduction _ the future. cris, we mentioned in the introduction that _ the future. cris, we mentioned

nicola said, i think the devastating diagnosis in the beginning is bad enough, and that started for me 1998 with my father. and then to carry on and repeat that time and time again with different family members, including both of my suns, one of whom died injanuary, it is like a perpetual nightmare. i could have been through it several times, it's never gets any easier. it is very difficult. the impact on your life is just devastated. your future difficult. the impact on your life isjust devastated. yourfuture is gone, yourfuture having families, grandchildren. and this research, and this

to the government for consideration in the spending review. and this petition and letter being delivered today is to help focus the government around that plan, that detailed scientific plan we have put in place. in a nutshell, what we're asking to do in that 50 page document we have already submitted, is to bring together the worlds leading scientists in the uk, clinicians, patients, the charity and industry, to pull forward the drugs that we know are out there, attacking the targets in the motor nerves to discover what works quickly and make a difference for people. is it discover what works

said, you need to do more, you need to think bigger, you need to be more ambitious. and so that is what we are doing. we are aiming for a cure and we have the confidence with the huge advances in knowledge in the last ten years about what is going wrong in motor neurone disease. we now have better models to work out which drugs might work, and then we can pull those through it too much

about. smarter and faster trials. i know from talking to the people i have met with motor neurone disease, actually, they are not that interested in being on trial because trials have to be double—blind, there has to be a placebo. you just want to take something at some point and how it might work. how would you feel about that? i don't know if you have been involved in any trials but how do you feel about maybe trying some of the new drugs out there? film. some of the new drugs out there? oh, absolutel . some of the new drugs out there? oh, absolutely- i— some of the new drugs out

we don't have at the chance to try these drugs. i know that the way cris and the —— chris and the other scientists have developed these trials, they will be done in a way to minimise the placebo group, so thatis to minimise the placebo group, so that is fantastic, but since your piece last week with doddie and chris, i have been inundated with e—mails from people across the country, from

it's tuesday september zist. our top story. the business secretary kwasi kwarteng has warned that more energy firms will go bust as the price of wholesale gas soars. last night, he insisted that the price cap on consumer bills will remain in place, meaning suppliers can't pass on the price hike to their customers. let's get more on this from nina. there is a lot going on. what we see as collateral damage of the energy prices increasing is companies going bust. four have gone more to follow. the business secretary said it happens every year but more are expected to follow suit. , ,

prices pushing _ know the sale prices pushing businesses to the brink, going up threefold in the space of the year. he told us those companies going under, they are not prepared to save, but what they will do potentially is give loans to businesses who will absorb customers of those companies that have gone under. that is the suggestion and looking likely through loans. what they have said and he reiterated was they have said and he reiterated was the energy price cap, if you are on a variable rate, it is only a certain amount it can increase mine. that is controversial because as an energy firm with a cap, and you buy it in for more, little wonder many are going bump. ultimately, he is saying he is protecting customers, but aren't we all are about to start paying more? around £140 per year for average households. and those whose businesses have gone out of business, looking for a sweet deal, there are not many at the moment. many getting in touch asking what we should do if the business has gone bump. the business secretary told us not to panic, your supply will not be cut off. you need to think about what is next and when the next supplier takes over make sure you have a record of where you are up to, metre readings, statements, paper bills, to ensure you get the fairy steel. a warning that prices are likely to go up forjust about everybody until this settles down. less competition means more difficult prices. there is concern about those on prepayment metres. often the most vulnerable in society. mary, a london pensioner said already on the price she pays on the set rate she has to make the decision between food and fuel and she cannot do that overwinter. tom said i am in credit my business, what happens if they go bust? the answer is it should be carried over to the next provider. we are getting criticism of the government. people saying you allowed this to happen in the first place. it is saying you allowed this to happen in the first place-— the

borisjohnson will meet president biden at the white house today to discuss topics including climate change, trade and the situation in afghanistan. it's the first time a british prime minister has met a president at the white house since theresa may visited donald trump there in 2017. our political correspondent helen catt reports on the build—up to another historic meeting. it was all smiles in the sunshine when borisjohnson metjoe biden in person for the first time just three months ago at the g7 summit in cornwall. mrjohnson says he hasn't had much of a chance to get to know the us president, but he says they have a genuinely terrific relationship and see eye to eye on all sorts of things. he'll be hoping the reception is as warm when they meet in the oval office in the white house later. what would have been one of borisjohnson's key requests has already been fulfilled. in a surprise move yesterday, the us lifted its travel ban on uk citizens. but other issues could be more difficult. borisjohnson is expected to push the us to increase its climate commitments ahead of november's crucial climate change summit cop26, which will take place in glasgow. it's the moment when we have to grow up and take our responsibilities. i think we go through, you know, a period of glorious indifference about the world. we've been through that, we've been through our childhood, if you like. we've now got to realise that this is a problem that requires grip. the two men are also expected to discuss the situation in afghanistan after the two countries withdrew troops. and what about a trade deal? borisjohnson has been pretty downbeat about the chances of that happening quickly. he told reporters that american negotiators were pretty ruthless and that he would rather get a deal that works for the uk than get a quick deal. borisjohnson is meeting several world leaders this week, but this meeting will certainly be the most closely watched. helen catt, bbc news. we'rejoined now by our chief political correspondent, adam fleming. let's start with the meeting between the prime minister and president biden. a lot to discuss for them. i think borisjohnson will biden. a lot to discuss for them. i think boris johnson will feel he has think borisjohnson will feel he has victories already because yesterday the american administration said they would restart transatlantic travel for those from the uk and europe who have had both vaccinations and also president biden will speak at the united nations this morning. it looks like he will commit more money from the us to the rest of the world to help fight climate change, something borisjohnson has been pushing for. it is debatable whether the us were going to do those things anyway and may be the uk did not have much difference diplomatically, but i think downing street will talk them up think downing street will talk them up as victories. sometimes with these meetings what sticks in your mind are the more personal moments between the people. think about when gordon brown went to see george w bush and the american president took him for a hair raising ride in a golf cart with gordon brown looking terrified. it summed up the fact they were different characters. and when theresa may went to see donald trump and everybody was wondering what it would be like, the relationship between an uptight person and chaotic person. the image was then walking down the ramp hand in hand. that summed up that strange relationship, as well. i wonder what pictures will lodge in our memories from this trip. it is pictures will lodge in our memories from this trip-— from this trip. it is fascinating. the are from this trip. it is fascinating. they are presidents _ from this trip. it is fascinating. they are presidents and - from this trip. it is fascinating. they are presidents and prime| they are presidents and prime ministers but humans. they will know that walk, the ride on whatever it might be, they know everyone in the world is watching for the awkward moment. the tongue at the mouth, the way they eat a sandwich, that is what people remember. we way they eat a sandwich, that is what people remember. we have been derived of what people remember. we have been deprived of those _ what people remember. we have been deprived of those moments _ what people remember. we have been deprived of those moments because i deprived of those moments because there has been little face—to—face diplomacy because of covid, but the awkward moments are back! the ministry of defence has apologised for a data breach which may have compromised the safety of dozens of afghan interpreters who worked for british forces. more than 250 people seeking relocation to the uk — many of whom are in hiding — were mistakenly copied into an emailfrom the mod, in which their names and some profile pictures were visible. defence secretary ben wallace has launched an investigation into how the breach occurred. the duke of york has been served with a sexual assault lawsuit after the relevant paperwork was delivered to his us lawyer, according to his accuser�*s legal team. virginia giuffre is seeking damages after claiming prince andrew sexually assaulted her — which he vehemently denies. earlier this month, miss giuffre's lawyers tried to serve the paperwork by leaving it with police officers guarding the royal lodge in windsor — but the prince's legal team argued it was not a valid method of serving legal documents. a vigil has taken place for a woman and three children who were found dead at a house in derbyshire. hundreds gathered in the village of killamarsh, near sheffield, to lay flowers in memory of terri harris, her 13—year—old sonjohn paul, her 11—year—old daughter lacey, and lacey's friend connie gent — who was also 11. our reporter tom ingall is in killamarsh. tom, we know a 31—year—old man remains under arrest on suspicion of murder. what's the latest? it isa it is a very quiet, subdued start to the day here in killamarsh. the awful disbelief is sinking in about the terrible things that have happened. the police activity is getting under way again. the temporary tent in place and vehicles have just arrived and things will continue here. we saw police activity in the field behind the house. there is a chord and around the house as investigators try to find out what happened. last night, there was a vigil with hundreds turning up not at the scene but at a nearby local park with children gathering and families, lots of flowers. that is the most striking thing here, the tributes, hundreds of flowers here. teddy bears, balloons, tea lights. they have continued to grow through the day. i have been struck by how people arrived in cars, standing for in a few moments to look at the flowers. among those jason bennett who yesterday paid an emotional tribute to his two children who have died, on facebook, saying his heart was broken in a million pieces. he was here this morning, spending 15 minutes sitting quietly, looking and reading at the tributes. aha, reading at the tributes. a desperately sad situation. two of the uk's biggest transport companies are in talks about a possible merger. stagecoach, which employs around 24,000 people, says it's discussing the idea with rival operator national express, which employs nearly 50,000 — saying it would lead to cost savings and "new growth opportunities". the canadian prime ministerjustin trudeau is on course to win the snap general election he called — but without gaining the parliamentary majority he was hoping for. mr trudeau called the election in august, less than two years after his liberal party lost its majority in 2019. some votes are still being counted but the leader of the main opposition party has conceded defeat, paving the way for the liberals to form another minority government. let's get the weather from carol. good morning. what is going on? quite a bit. if we look at the rest of the week first, it will be dry for most with sunshine and temperatures a bit above average for the time of year. it will turn windy and cooler in the north, especially from later today in the north—west. we have mist and fog to lift. we have a weak front moving south, breaking up, and the bulk of uk will be dry and sunny. we do have a weather front across the north and west later. introducing cloud, light rain and drizzle and the wind will pick up here. with exposure it could reach gusts and gale force. it will continue overnight across the north and west. the weather front moving south. rain dying away. ahead of the band of cloud, clear skies. rural areas will be cool and there will be mist and fog patches forming. overnight, at the end, and weather front introduces heavy rain, and it will continue to move south. a blustery day in scotland and east of the pennines. as we come south, the weak weather front produces cloud. again, it will start to break up. for most, dry, sunny, temperatures up for most, dry, sunny, temperatures up to 23. as we've been hearing, the prime minister borisjohnson is in the us, urging world leaders to do more to tackle climate change. that's because in just six weeks' time, the uk will host a major climate conference known as cop26. so who's going and what will it achieve? nearly 200 world leaders will meet in glasgow in november. they'll discuss how to limit climate change and its effects — like rising sea levels and extreme weather. they're being asked to set ambitious targets to reduce the amount of greenhouse gases, which add to global warming, going into the atmosphere by 2030. they'll also look at how to achieve net zero by 2050 — that means the amount of greenhouse gasses entering the atmosphere does not exceed the amount taken out. burning fossilfuels is a major cause of emissions, so steps could include ending the use of coal and investing in renewable energy, as well as stopping deforestation. here to discuss all that is the bbc�*s new climate editor, justin rowlatt. congratulations. good morning. as mentioned, big, important conference coming up soon. world leaders will be in the uk talking about what to do next. how important is it we at home pay attention? they have just made me climate editor and of course i would say it is the most important conference in the world. if everybody turns up it will be the biggest gathering of world leaders in british history. a huge conference and the issue at the heart, tackling global warming, i described it today as the central project of the 21st century. climate is changing and we know the effects of climate change could be catastrophic. we know how to stop it, reducing greenhouse gas emissions. all we need now is getting the world together to sort it out but that is a huge challenge. you have done a report. i have. it is slightly bizarre. we have someone i met 15 years ago who is keen on composting and we look at the efforts he is making to compost off in his garden and what it tells us about the challenge of reducing carbon emissions. excuse me, would you like some free potatoes? meet britain's king of compost. john cossham has been crazy keen on rotting down organic waste for decades. he collects waste fruit and veg from local shops and restaurants and — yup, bins, too — and brings it back to his suburban garden. i first metjohn 15 years ago. and, if anything, he's now even more into composting. so, listen — how many compost heaps have you got now? oh, i don't know. maybe about 40. do you want to come and have a look? let's go and have a look. and it's easy to get started. it's quite a good idea to chop stuff up. all this will be eaten by bacteria and fungi — and it's notjust carbon, it has got nitrogen and phosphorus and some micronutrients in it. this is what nature does. and what is it about compost that you enjoy so much? i think one of the best things is it's a way to connect you with nature. it's something that anybody can do who's got a garden. and it makes you connected with the cycle of food going to waste and putting it in the soil and then growing more food. environmentalists and some economists say composting shows us how the whole economy needs to change. hi, come in. kate raworth is an oxford economist famous for her theory of doughnut economics. it's all happening now. it's ok. i bet people always bring you these. i've got some doughnuts. i can only find these mini ones. but what does a doughnut tell us about the limits of modern capitalism? so we've inherited the idea that the shape of economic progress is endless growth, a nation getting richer and richer, no matter how rich it already is. and that is pushing us to the limits of the planetary home that we have. we need to reimagine the shape of progress. and so — let me have a little one. i hope it's going to be bigger than this in reality. it's more like a doughnut, silly, though, it sounds. so imagine humanity's use of earth's resources radiating out from the centre of that doughnut. the goal is to leave no one in the hole. that's where people are falling short on the essentials of life. but as we use earth's resources, we mustn't overshoot this outer limit, because that is where we put so much pressure on our planetary home. we cause climate breakdown. we acidify the oceans. we break down the web of life. so we must meet the needs of all people within the means of the living planet. that's the 21st—century project. so within the boundaries of the doughnut, so to speak. so what does that mean about use of materials? so it means...a—ha! let me see. here's some hosepipe. so we've inherited a linear industrial system where we take those materials, put them in the pipe of production, make them into stuff. we will use it often only once and throw it away. and that take—make—use—lose has been pushing us over the limits of our planet and running down the life support systems we depend upon. we've got to bend that linear process into a circular or cyclical one, so that resources are used again and again, far more carefully, more collectively, creatively and slowly. no surprise, then, that kate is a keen composter. like most of us, she uses the local—authority composting scheme. about half of all local authorities now offer food waste collection. your waste is brought to centres like this. plastic is taken out and it goes through a giant magimixer. then it's rotted down in these huge vats. the methane is pumped off and used to generate electricity. and what's left — look at that — is a lovely, rich liquid fertilizer that can be put back on the fields. back in york, john has been saying for years we need to do more than just compost our food and garden waste. you bury something. it sits in a hole where there's no oxygen. it's an anaerobic process. it gives off pollutants like methane. have you guessed what he's talking about yet? i think we can compost human beings. i mean, what happens in nature when something dies, it gets incorporated into the soil very, very quickly. because i don't see humans as separate from nature. we are part of the cycle. 15 years ago, he pretended to compost me. the real process would be a bit more complicated than this. but for you, this is the ultimate recycling. i want to be composted when i die. now, a compost funeral might not be for everyone, but the message is clear. if we're going to achieve the circular economy kate talked about, it means reusing and recycling virtually everything. did you know you would be doing that when you signed up for your newjob? that is perhaps not the piece i would have chosen to mark the beginning of my role. you would have chosen to mark the beginning of my role.—

had a clear view, and president biden seems to have changed the dialogue. he has changed the calculus of international diplomacy. he said america is behind it and would put investment in it and if he got his way there would be an infrastructure bill involving lots of spending on low carbon technology, charging points across america, solar, etc. it creates confidence in china that america is serious about it and allows them perhaps to be more ambitious. we have the problem that there is tension, unusual tension in there is tension, unusual tension in the world. i cannot remember anything like this since the cold war, and that tension makes it difficult for china and america to talk but they say they are trying to put aside short—term issues and recognise this is an existential global issue, an issue that could affect the future, not just ours, but hundreds of years into the future, thousands of years. they say let's try to put that aside and do something about it. the momentum

is an amazing opportunity. we have new industry growing up. look at what you see here, the wind industry off the coast of yorkshire, the way the car industry is developing electric cars. if i were leaving school i would think green tech. maybe 20 years ago i would be thinking social media and digital technology. green tech, huge businesses to be built and this is where billionaires of the

you are. good morning from bbc london, i'm tolu adeoye. detectives have named a woman who was found dead in cator park in kidbrooke on saturday — as they appeal for anyone who saw anything suspicious to come forward. police believe 28—year—old sabina nessa was attacked at 8.30 on the previous evening when the park was likely to have been used by dog walkers and joggers. a man arrested on suspicion of murder has been released pending further enquiries. young people who survive cancer are at risk of missing out on the chance to have children in the future because certain fertility preservation services aren't always funded by the nhs. that's according to a new study which includes research by the ucl hospital foundation trust. lauren shute from high wycombe was seventeen when she was diagnosed with cancer. she had ovarian tissue preserved — a procedure which was paid for by a charity. i know people who haven't had it, who hadn't heard of it, and i almost feel guilty bringing it up when someone who i know who's also gone through a similar experience hasn't had that, because it's allowed me to kind of move on from cancer and to not have it impact every single point in my life. it will impact my health forever, but to know that it hasn't affected my fertility as it could have — i'm so grateful every day for that. well, nhs england says all children with cancer should be advised about their options in line with clinical guidelines. the london—based firm pimlico plumbers has been sold to us home services group neighborly. the deal will see founder charlie mullins offload his

elizabeth rizzini. hello, good morning. it's set to be a fairly pleasant day of weather today across the capital — not as cloudy as it was yesterday, there'll be more in the way of sunshine, it will stay dry and it will feel warmer, too. but it's been quite a chilly early start to the morning, temperatures having dropped back into high single figures. still a bit of mist to lift and clear, but there will be some spells of sunshine emerging — we'll keep those sunny spells as we head into the afternoon. the winds stay light, and temperatures will peak in the low 20s in celsius — 21 or maybe even 22 degrees celsius. now, as we head through the evening and overnight, then the winds will pick up a touch so there won't be quite so much of an issue with mist and fog into wednesday morning. but still, temperatures dropping back as low as perhaps eight or nine degrees celsius in some of the rural spots. so locally, again, quite a chilly start to the day with lots of clear skies around. and then tomorrow, again, it's dry and it's warm, there'll be a lot of sunshine around. it will turn windier again into the afternoon as that wind picks up. top temperatures again peaking at around 21 degrees. on thursday and friday, we start to draw in more of a northwesterly wind, but it should stay dry or mostly dry as we head through the rest of this week, with some more sunshine at times. i'm

living with brain cancer. tom was also looking forward to his old hand — the wanted — getting together for their first public performance in seven years. that gig took place last night — and tim muffett was there to see it. cheering. for many, the most "wanted" tickets in town. really excited to be here, yeah! we've been there since day dot. we've been here from the start, yeah. we've been there from the start. we've been all over the country watching the wanted — - we were actually lucky enough to meet them, win one - of their competitions and go up to manchester and play- laser quest with them. you played laser quest with the wanted? yeah, with the wanted. # and if you know, how do you get up... one of the uk's biggest boy bands, back together after seven years for a very special cause. band member tom parker was diagnosed with a brain tumour last year. he recently announced that he's decided to stop his gruelling chemotherapy. i think it's going to be more emotional than we all think, and i think that's going to really hit home. this event isn'tjust about the wanted reforming, it's a way of raising money for causes close to tom parker's heart — stand up to cancer and the national brain appeal. it's quite close to my heart, tonight, because my sister—in—law passed away from cancer. that's another reason why we love that the wanted done this, as well. obviously, what tom parker's gone through, it's the exact same as what emily went through — like, they had the same brain tumour. and amongst the artists appearing as well as the wanted, a member of a former rival boy band. how important was it for you to come along today? huge — i mean, when i heard this story it really hit home because of how young we all are, and obviously we've known each other for a very long time so i wanted to do everything i could to be here tonight. it's, yeah, it's proper... this one proper cut you deep, to be honest with you. backstage at the royal albert hall, about to go on stage, and you're back together. how are you feeling? very excited. it feels pretty surreal. what have the rehearsals been like? the words, the dance moves — how has that been, getting back together again after seven years? well, when you've got a brain tumour it's very difficult to try and rememberanything... oh, my god! laughter. so, yeah, that's been... for me...that's been real, real, really quite tough. it's hard enough, anyway. it's hard enough not doing it for seven years — - never mind, like, you know, you with all that going on. i to be honest, you always forgot... idid. and, to be fair, the dance moves have never really been there, - so we just kind of make it up as we go along _ please, go wild, for the wanted! cheering. music: all time low. # ..only thing i'll never know. # how do you get up from an all—time low? # i can't even find a place to start. # how do i choose between my head and heart? music: gold forever. # say my name like it's the last... # time. # live today like it's the last night. cheering. they've come off stage... congratulations, congratulations. what an amazing performance. how was it to be back on stage together? absolutely incredible — the atmosphere was electric. it was mental. honestly, i don't think we've experienced anything like it, to be honest. i it was amazing — it's made my littlel 14—year—old heart happy again, so... emotional! unreal, emotional! incredible. literally incredible. incredible. it feels more special, the fact that we were all together doing it, you know? and they're there — the boys are there to support me, and that's beautiful for me. it must have been really emotional. it was. there was a moment where i almost lost it, to be honest with you! and then i managed to pull it back. so amazing. it was the best thing ever. it was lovely to see tom, of all people, back on stage, doing what he does best. it was amazing. being in a band, a kind of a brotherhood, it's probably never felt more important to you. honestly. yeah, the boys have been like brothers, they really have. they've been there at low moments, they've been there at high moments, but that's what they're brothers for. boy band veterans. but a performance unlike any they've given before. tim muffett, bbc news, at the royal albert hall. tough to watch, isn't it? amazing gate and you saw how happy they were to be that

all in a very large tent. can you guess what it is? the new series of the great british bake off starts tonight, with 12 new hopefuls ready to do battle. let's have a quick preview. bakers, you have had half an hour. no, no, no, they've got half an hour. oh, you've got half an hour left. that makes more sense. lovely. thank you very much. same difference, isn't it? no. 0h. that's panicked me, so i'm, like, miles behind. - that's a strong smell. what is that? come on, just do it. cos they're mini, you've got to get it really tight. paul and prue have demanded a perfectly defined swirl. but if the sponge is even a fraction overbaked... come on! ..it will split. not perfect, but whatever. trying to keep it all in one piece. quite a lot of cracking. which is why i'm covering them in something to make them a bit more attractive. i'm horrendous at doing neat finishes. paul's going to love you. don't look into his eyes, all right? i'm going to stare him down. don't stare paul down — you will not win that battle! that was quite scary! it is a big favourite in our house, bake off, love it. let's speak to a couple of bake off experts. ruby bhogal was a runner—up three years ago, and tom allen presents the extra slice spin—off show. good morning to you both. lovely to have you with us. really, what is it like at this stage the contest is? you build it and then you're waiting for it to start on tv and get people invested. it is you're waiting for it to start on tv and get people invested.- and get people invested. it is so weird. at this _ and get people invested. it is so weird. at

already gone back to my normal dayjob and i remember being on the tube and someone is holding a metro paper in front of me. i opened it up and they looked at the paper, looked at me and was like, wait! are you on bake off? it absolutely blew my mind because you lived in this bubble where you have been filming bake off for ten weeks and then you go back to normal life and it almost felt like did that even happen? see your face in the paper in the morning is a shock to the system, let me tell you. but i can imagine they have woken up with butterflies in their stomach and a bit like christmas morning, but it is so exciting, i cannot wait to watch it tonight. tom, it is like this in my house but few new baking a cake could be so dramatic? i few new baking a cake could be so

then. i say my job for about nine months after the show and then it was one of those moments where i had to give my all to baking or to myjob and of course cake will always win! went down that avenue and i have not looked back. i feel very, very fortunate. that was what i imagine with baker, it propels you to a different platform and allows you to take forward a passion that maybe some people

expectation. i thought i was going out in the first week, never thought i would make it to the final. because of my lack of experience i went in thinking i was going to go into have fun. whilst some

longest serving royal consort in british history. in a new documentary on bbc one tomorrow night, we'll get to hear a lot more about the duke as a family man. all of the queen and duke's children and grandchildren took part in the programme. and they all shared very personal memories. let's take a look. one of the games he used to enjoy playing was when we used to go forfamily barbecues. instead of, like, a mustard pot, we had a squeezy mustard tube. and he used to take the lid off and put it in your hands. he gets you to hold it. gets you to hold it in your hands and the lid's off. i and i can't remember exactly what he says, but he ends up slamming your hands together. and then he'd squish your hands together to fire the mustard onto the ceiling. it went all over the ceiling. he used to get in a lot of trouble from my grandmother for covering most of the places we had lunch and things with mustard on the ceiling. i actually think the marks are still there. yeah, i think so. you know, he enjoyed those jokes, he enjoyed messing around with the children and kind of being a grandfather. what i remember now is the expressions on his face to the things that happened, things that went wrong, and the craziness that was happening around him. he would just sit there so completely calmly with his legs crossed and his arms folded, or his hands classed, and just literally watches run by going zoom, zoom. he made time for all of us, - supported all of us and he kept control of most of us. the royaljournalist robert hardman, who wrote and co—produced this documentary, joins us now. you really do get an insight into the personality and we have talked so much about him but i do think we learn more, don't we? knife so much about him but i do think we learn more, don't we?—

dearly. there were so many fascinating stories. i think we all heard a great deal about every aspect of his life and so many people were amazed by all the things he had done, which we heard at the time of his funeral. to hear it from the family, a whole new side of him, it is wonderful stuff. hour the family, a whole new side of him, it is wonderful stuff.— it is wonderful stuff. how much of

small bit of cooking in here but a lot of other stuff to do. it is so clear from the film that he was very much a hands—on grandfather and quite naughty, quite rebellious. quite rebellious, he loved

do interviews. this started out as a film to celebrate his 100th birthday this time last year, and obviously then covid intervene and we started interviewing people that eased off a bit in the spring, and then of course the sad news came and we stopped and then after which we thought, well, you know, we have heard already is so important and poignant. shall we carry on? at the family were all very keen to do that. in the end, 14 members of the family plus a member of the family from germany, as well, so it is a big cast. it from germany, as well, so it is a bi cast. . from germany, as well, so

relatives are really honest about him. there is a clip we have here which is prince william and princess, the duchess of cornwall, remembering him and how tough he was. he would always make everyone very clear where you stand. i think people find that refreshing. they know there is nothing else going on or there is no game is played. he is very up front, he is very honest and he is very matter of fact. he is fundamentally a problem solver and i think a lot of that stems from his early experience and the problems in his early life. i am so curious about people. ijust asked him - about his childhood. it was absolutely riveting. my father was the youngest. he must have been 16, 17 years younger than his older sister. so his father was quite a lot older. i never knew my grandfather, his father — prince andrew of greece — because he died before i was born. he was obviously understand it because he had been around for such a long time, such a huge figure in that family. what you have

irreplaceable but his legacy is carried on in so many ways by other members of the family and things like his duke of edinburgh award scheme. that is now being carried out by the millions of people and in the series we took to his granddaughter, lady louise, the earl and countess of wessex' daughter, who is actually doing the duke of edinburgh award herself at the moment. it is herfirst

lot of lightness in there as well as reflect this but particularly to hear about his early life is fascinating. duchess of cornwall said, is riveting. you even get to see his early teenage attempts at
