suppose the first question people ask is why have we only realized or been able to confirm their link at the stage? irate confirm their link at the stage? we have confirm their link at the stage? - have been monitoring the numbers of pregnant women who have needed hospitalization or admission to intensive care and one of our real concerns is the rising numbers of women needing intensive care including excavating a story in the recent third wave. it's been a real concern to us. so we are really encouraging pregnant women to get vaccinated which has been recommended since december so they can avoid all the complications of covid—19 disease. can avoid all the complications of covid-19 disease.— covid-19 disease. what is it that vaccination _ covid-19 disease. what is it that vaccination

disease. what is it that. vaccination does to the human body that perhaps might make pregnant women particularly nervous about it? it's good that january pregnant women are concerned about what putting into their bodies but that's way we have been really careful to look at the safety and effectiveness of the vaccine for pregnant women. and that's why it's been recommended by the jcb i from and that's why it's been recommended by thejcb i from last december. first of all it was well that the health and social care workers and those in particular increased risk of complications from covid—19 but it's now rolled out to all ages and all pregnant women at any age can access the vaccine. we are really keen to see pregnant women to up the offer of the vaccination so that we can avoid all these complications, notjust can avoid all these complications, not just for the can avoid all these complications, notjust for the women can avoid all these complications, not just for the women themselves but also because one in three pregnant women who are hospitalized with covid—19 will need preterm birth. with covid-19 will need preterm birth. �* with covid-19 will need preterm birth. . ,

we worked so hard on understanding more about the safety and the effectiveness of the vaccine so that we can recommend it confidently. that recommendation is coming from royal college of obstetricians and the royal college of mixed midwives and the royal couege of mixed midwives and the royal college of general practitioners to any pregnant woman can access a health care professional and get good

higher rate of stillbirths. we are also needing to see warning delivered very early for example if you need delivery at 23 at 24 weeks and that's the case. what is so heartbreaking is that 99% of pregnant women who have been hospitalized instead they have not been vaccinated in the early days that was because the roll—outs was still in its early stages but we would really like to encourage an uptake of the covid—19 vaccine at the point now where it's available. so that we don't continue with losing babies and sadly losing some mums at this stage of the pandemic. thank you very much. their latest coronavirus figures show there were 80,224 infections recorded on monday that means on average about 38,000 new cases every day over the last week. as of friday they were more than six and a half people in hospital in the uk with coronavirus. and in the last 24 hours another 28 deaths have been notified, that people who died within 28 days of testing positive and that means on average dabbur were 111 deaths every day over the past week. vaccinations 85.5% of the population age 12 and over have had their first dose of the vaccine and 78.6% have received both doses. prince charles

the dutch airline run a flight this evening that runs on 30% biofuel generated from waste industrial and commercial refuge. the problem with using biofuel is that it's carbon neutral which means the carbon dioxide is taken up by the plants is then released back into the air when then released back into the air when the fuel is burned. and unfortunately we have let the cat out of the bag with carbon dioxide levels because carbon dioxide levels are now so high that we need to go one step further with sustainable field and as he developed fuels that pull carbon out of the atmosphere so what prince charles car and calen are doing is a first step but as time so it's slowing down. that's raisint a time so it's slowing down. that's raising a very — time so it's slowing down. that's raising a

them use the phrase carbon neutral. seeing if we have a lot of promises with carbon neutral and actually we should regard that as disappointing and possibly as failure in terms of the ambition? yes. i think so. the fossil fuels release carbon and carbon has been locked up in the ground and its parent and the carbon that was in the ground is now in the air. we really should be looking to generate fuel with carbon capture and storage and possibly looking at new fuels like hydrogen and bio hydrogen so rather than converting biomass into bioethanol which contains carbon and into hydrogen which

rain particularly across the northern half of scotland but it was the exception and it could bring some view of the aurora tonight. if it does show its hand although strong gusty winds it will feel colder here. clear skies with across the south like last night temperatures could be down to around 2 or three degrees. another cool start with more cloud on tuesday. a web front from northwest scotland into the eastern coast of england. they will be some light rain and drizzle at times pushing further west. close to london by the end of the day. west of that in the light winds in the milder air, temperatures could be in the high teens but with just some — cold air pushing towards the coast and temperatures 11 degrees. it will be a cool day across the eastern areas tomorrow. hello, this is bbc news with shaun ley. the headlines... fresh calls for pregnant women to get their covid jabs as new data shows one in six of those most critically ill with the disease were unvaccinated pregnant women. mystery leaders tell ministers to stop sitting on their hands and find a solution to the soaring energy costs. prince charles has told the bbc he wants more ambitious action on climate change, and that he understands why some protesters have been taking to the streets. half a century after the break—up of the beatles, sir paul mccartney breaks his silence on who was to blame. and boldly going where no nonagenarian has gone before: star trek�*s captain kirk, the actor william shatner, explains why at the age of 90, he's blasting off into space at last. let's go back to one of our top stories tonight — nhs england has warned that one in six of the most critically ill people in hospital with coronavirus are pregnant women who haven't had a covid vaccine. health leaders are making a new appeal for expectant mothers to get vaccinated. let's speak now to dr chrissie jones, who's an associate professor of paediatric infectious diseases at the university of southampton. doctor at the university of southampton. jones, thanks vs joining doctorjones, thanks very much for joining us this evening. were you surprised when you saw the statistics casilla i think it is

" the inquiry into the bombing has heard john atkinson might have survived, if he'd been treated more quickly. today his family refused to accept an apology from the ambulance service's operational commander on the night. mr atkinson suffered a fatal cardiac arrest, more than an hour after the blast, in 2017. with more details, here's judith moritz. john atkinson was badly hurt in the bombing at manchester arena but it was nearly an hour before he got professional medical help. ambulances raced to the scene, but most paramedics stayed outside the building and it was decided that casualties should be lifted downstairs to the station next door for treatment. but there were no stretchers and john atkinson was dragged along this bridge on a display board, which broke. a police officer asked for help but the paramedic in command said he should be left where he was, and last week apologised to mr atkinson's family. all the paramedics, all the emergency responders that went to that scene wanted to do their very best, and i am truly sorry if any decision that i made, any decision, impacted on his survivability. john atkinson's father, his mother and sisters have listened to days of heartbreaking evidence and say they believe mistake after mistake was made in his case. this should never have been allowed to happen. john had so much more to give. we heard the apology last week from mr smith from the north west ambulance service — we cannot accept this apology. actions speak louder than words and we want to see what actions are taken to ensure that this never happens again. in stark contrast to their anger at the emergency services, john atkinson's family have called the member of the public who stayed withjohn for an hour a hero, saying that the kindness of strangers has offered them a glimmer of hope in their darkest moments. john atkinson had a caring nature. he worked with autistic children. his family say his death has left a massive void and raises so many questions which need to be answered. judith moritz, bbc news, manchester. anyone in wales wanting to visit nightclubs, or large events will, from today, need to prove they've had two doses of a covid vaccine, or produce a negative lateral flow test. the welsh government says it hopes the rules will ease pressure on the nhs this winter. hywel griffith reports now from cardiff. rickets. — there's the tickets. upper circle. - and your covid passes. produce your pass, pick out your paperwork. and your lateral flow test, please. or proof of a negative test. there is no way into this concert without one. i don't see any issue with it at all, to be honest. it's very straightforward and, yeah, no problem at all. it rejected my identity, so i've done a lateral flow test instead. covid passes have already been used at some festivals and, ahead of this gig, not everyone got the message. it's a small venue, we're wearing masks and, yet, you know, they won't let us come in. so how do you get your hands on one? stephen is a double—jabbed student in swansea. so it's asking me to record a short video. a video? of my face while i tell... well, you tell it four numbers. two, one, seven, six. after all that, it arrived. stephen wouldn't mind the pass becoming permanent. i am happy to do this continuously now, like, forever. if that's what it takes. it's like a new thing, if that's what it takes now, it's just the new normal, that's what we do have for the rest of our lives, then that's what it is. but research suggests around about a third of people are opposed to the idea of having to show a pass. for some people, mandation can be counter—productive, you know? we do see this, that some people will say, well, actually, now, i don't want to get it. and there have been criticisms that perhaps the system is open to gaming, or people putting in fake covid—19 tests. there is a £60 fine for faking a test, but it depends on people reporting their own result. the point of the fine is mostly to be a deterrent to somebody... who's going to police it? well, the policing of it can be done through the checking system that we have, but it's not the point of it. the point of the system is to keep you safe and other people safe. having a pass isn't the same as not having the virus, but, from today, these students will need one for a night out. have you got your covid pass yet? no, i have not, sorry. do you know about the scheme? do you know what you have to do? i found out a few hours ago. i think if you want to go out, suck it up, get- soon, passes may notjust be for entry to clubs, concerts and stadiums. the welsh government says it could add care homes and hospitals to the list if covid cases rise. hywel griffiths, bbc news. and the health secretary, sajid javid, has written to secondary school students, urging them to getjabbed. the government has pledged to offer vaccinations to all 12—15—year—olds before the half term break this month, beginning on friday. so far only 11% of youngsters in their age group have been vaccinated in england. in wales, that figure is 24%. as yet, northern ireland hasn't begun vaccination in this age group, as dominic hughes reports. the decision to vaccinate all 12 to 15—year—olds was complicated. the health case was finely balanced, but other factors, like the impact on education through missed school days, meant the uk's chief medical officers decided it should go ahead. for this head teacher in greater manchester, it was the right decision but not one he wants to force on parents. we make sure we give all the information to the parents from the local authority. we've been very clear that we are not a vaccination centre. we haven't been effectively promoting vaccinations and we've left it up to the parents and the pupil to make that decision. well, it's now three weeks since the launch of this vaccination programme for 12 to 15—year—olds but there are some concerns that, in england at least, it's been a bit of a slow start. a number of factors have affected the roll—out. schools need to get parents to sign consent forms. parents who are hesitant about vaccines need to have a discussion with a health professional to address their concerns. and while drop—in centres are used in scotland, jabs in england are only delivered in schools. high infection rates among pupils have also delayed the process. you have to wait 28 days after testing positive before you have the vaccine. so far, vaccination rates in scotland are much higher. perhaps reflecting that use of drop—in centres. the nhs in england says almost 200,000 children have already been jabbed and experts believe the programme will make a difference. not only does this vaccine help to prevent severe disease and hospitalisations and, of course, deaths, but it also helps to reduce transmission, so if we have 12 to 15—year—olds vaccinated, they are not only less likely to be sick, but they are also much less likely to give this virus to someone else. and the parents we met in altrincham were happy to give their consent. they need to be secure as well. for their education, too? that's correct, to stop spreading the virus, definitely in the class, because there are many students in there, so why not? we just looked at both the positives and the negative sides of the vaccinations and we decided, in terms of avoiding the risk for covid, we would like to take the pfizer for my son, actually. there are some concerns that, after a good start, the vaccination programme across the uk has stalled, at least compared to other european nations. the progress of this latest roll—out will be an important test. dominic hughes, bbc news, altrincham. shares in the online fashion retailer, asos, have fallen by 14% after it warned that its profits would be much lower this year than last. the company says customers are now returning more clothes as the pandemic eases. let's get more on this with richard lim, chief executive of retail economics. thank you very much for being with us. is that the only explanation?

it's true. the pure online i model is a very different model from the traditional brick—and—mortar model. they are much more reliant on variable costs the demand of their product. to put it really. simply, returns are a significant cost to retailers and is damaging to their profitability. and our research shows that in the apparel sector, around 30— 40% of what is bought is then returned it to that retailer. so providing really efficient ways of getting that stock back into the supply chains is really limiting the amount of returns that comes back is crucially protecting profitability. . iiit crucially protecting profitability. . in a period where we talk so much about the need _ . in a period where we talk so much about the need to _ . in a period where we talk so much about the need to reduce _ . in a period where we talk so much about the need to reduce carbon i about the need to reduce carbon footprints, that need to make supply chains more sustainable, 30— 40% of products people buy are being sent back to get a replacement or money back to get a replacement or money back with mike that's crazy, isn't it?

it's a difficult situation to sustain, in terms of all- it? it's a difficult situation to i sustain, in terms of all of these pressures that i've just been talking about and the pressure on profitability, when there is such a high proportion of stock that is returned to the retailers. of course retailers have a number of different strategies to deal with this, and asos themselves have introduced a strategy where they essentially penalise serial returners. so there are things retailers can do to try to reduce the amount of stock coming back. but broadly, the broad horizon of where sustainability and the pressure on retailers to reduce their carbon footprint will only become more intense and become more under the spotlight — so it's a more challenging outlook for the whole sector, with asos included in that. 14% drop in the value of shares as a result of this announcement, the departure of the chief executive in a sense as punishment for these results. ijust wonder if results. i just wonder if the markets have just been a bit unrealistic?

oh, no, no, no. john walked into the room one day and said, "i'm leaving the beatles." and he said, "it's quite thrilling, it's rather like a divorce." and then we were left to pick up the pieces. but i didn't instigate the split — that was ourjohnny! that interview will be hosted on 23 october. philip moorman is a biography for many of her people —— biographer, most notably the beatles. his book came out at the beginning of the 1980s is and was a international bestseller. they give so much for being with us. i suspect, as somebody who's research this is so thoroughly as you have, it doesn't come as a great surprise. should it come as a surprise to us. 7 . should it come as a surprise to us. 7 should it come as a surprise to us. ?

over these last few days we've been looking at the shortlist for britain's best new building award. on thursday, we will be live at the awards ceremony. this year's riba stirling prize shortlist includes key worker housing, an eco friendly mosque and a footbridge. today we're looking at a project at kingston university in south west london. the town house incorporates a library as well as dance studio space. in a way, you may not feel like you're in a university building at all. that you're in a structure that kind of is asking you, what do you want to do here? we are sitting in the town house at kingston university, which is a building we realised as a result of an riba competition in 2013. the building is surrounded on three sides and that is an urban experience which connects the university back to the town. the university aspired to reveal the activities of the interior of the building to the wider public. i really love being in the foyer because you watch the buses going up and down and you see people on buses looking in, and they probably say to themselves, "what goes on in there? i must come back and have a look some time." for me, the thing that makes town house really special is the combination of things, i suppose it's the light, it's the space, is the views from the building. it's quite soft, i think, actually, for a building that is predominantly concrete. it really lends itself to encounters between staff and student, student to students, and that's really important to us, that's the feel we were hoping to create with the building. the ceiling has these specially—made acoustic baffles which absorb sound. they wall panelling itself is kind of striated. in this building, you have two different aspects, a library and a dance faculty, in the one space. from an acoustic point of view, you have to keep them apart but from an ideological and cultural point of view, you want to connect them, so that was the challenge of this project. we've designed the surrounds to the staircase so they're overlooked, so people can actually work there by standing at the edges overlooking the staircase. because there is something really phenomenal about people watching. the building is a concrete building, it is a concrete frame. we have a thermally active system which allows the building to be cooled through that concrete. so not only is the concrete structure, but it's also environmental. for me, the one word that epitomises this building is open. it's very important to our students that they feel that this building is here for them, and they can move into it and occupy it and use it the way that they want to. the town house contains two aspects — it contains town which has a civic dimension, and it contains house, which has a sense of belonging, sense of home. it's open and it is porous. it's a democratic space. that is one of six shortlisted entries for the riba stirling prize for britain's best new building. and we will be live at the awards ceremony on thursday at 7.30pm. ido i do hope you'lljoin us for that. the interview we saw earlier between justin rowlands and prince charles can be found online on the bbc iplayer service. can be found online on the bbc iplayerservice. prince can be found online on the bbc iplayer service. prince charles and his battle for our planet, you just need to log on to the iplayer. you'll find it very easily from the main menu. now it's time for a look at the weather with tomasz schafernaker. well, it's not been a bad day across most of the uk today. some hazy sunshine out there, but not everywhere. northern parts of the uk have been fairly overcast, a weather front has been brushing the north all day long, and it's been wet in the northwest highlands, the he rides, as well, —— hebrides. this will continue overnight, the clearest of the weather over southern and central areas, western scotland and to an extent the north sea counties, it will be fairly overcast. but where the skies clear, that's where we'll have the lowest numbers, around that�*s where we'll have the lowest numbers, around 6— that's where we'll have the lowest numbers, around 6— seven in the south. tomorrow's weather, again cloudy across much of scotland in northeast england, on that north sea coast, the further west and south you are, the brighter the weather will be. light winds, sunny spells in cardiff, and 17 celsius — not bad how democrat all, that's how it will be. on the whole, it's a fine day all week. this is bbc news. a warning to pregnant women. get a carfit vaccine. today in six people in england is critical error from covid—19 and pregnant. the risks are much greater with the spread of the delta variant.— delta variant. they were taking the decisions on _ delta variant. they were taking the decisions on my _ delta variant. they were taking the decisions on my life _ delta variant. they were taking the decisions on my life thinking - delta variant. they were taking the decisions on my life thinking ok, i decisions on my life thinking ok, this woman not make it and i would not want anyone in to face what i face. , . ~ . not want anyone in to face what i face. , ., ~ ., ., not want anyone in to face what i face. , ., ., ., face. give a maxwell, an associate of jeffrey epstein _ face. give a maxwell, an associate of jeffrey epstein is _ face. give a maxwell, an associate of jeffrey epstein is expected - face. give a maxwell, an associate of jeffrey epstein is expected to i ofjeffrey epstein is expected to learn which of her alleged co—conspirators will give evidence against her in the criminal trial in new york. austria's chancellor stands aside and made allegations he spent government money on a corrupt deal that ensured positive media coverage. and forgive and forget. donald trump remains the standard bearer for the
