in 55, a new campaign is launched to encourage people to get covid boosterjabs. a week on from the killing of conservative mp sir david amess, people in essex hold a silence in his memory. let's cross to the green party conference in birmingham, where we're expecting co—leaders carla denyer and adrian ramsay to speak shortly. thank you. it is so great to see all of your in person once again. we have missed that so much. on my last day as acting leader, one member wrote to me a goodbye message that said i had carried the soul of the green party. that is a really nice thing to say, and a really nice way to describe whatjonathan and i have tried to do over the past three years and it is actually a pretty good description of the mainjob years and it is actually a pretty good description of the main job of the leaders of our party as well. i definitely think that person made that comment about the soul of the party metaphorically but in actual fact handed down to me i have this to hand over to our new team of leaders later. it is very precious and you must never look at directly in the eye. in all seriousness, i do believe we are a party with what amounts to a sill. handed down to greens today we have principles hundreds of centuries old of how to live in harmony with their environment. we have principles learned from the charred lessons of the most recent centuries which are filled with colonisation and exploitation of people and resources. and we have even more land from the lessons of the 20th century, about social safety nets, class, working rights and democracy and universal human rights as well as the cataclysmic horror we could set in train if we allow people who are different to be lined up to be hated. we also carry an hour so principles that think about what can be, that look forwards and upwards, principles we need to follow in the century so urgently because this is clearly our very last chance to act on these lessons and create a brighter future and our party has a huge role to play in that future. no pressure at all on our new leaders today. i am pressure at all on our new leaders today. iam more pressure at all on our new leaders today. i am more than delighted to introduce this new team to go for the first time and hear what they have to say to us. i have worked with each of them before and they really have impressed and inspired me. both of them have already had a big impact on politics under a party, kick—starting real climate action locally and nationally, growing local election successes and experiences part of earlier leadership teams as well. i am very proud to hand over the role to their good hands along with the guardianship of our collective soul. thank you, and without any further delay i gave you a new

us. let me take a moment to introduce adrian. as many of you will know he was deputy leader of the party ten years ago, leader of the cancelo group in norwich which managed to deliver unprecedented electoral success for the city. he coded our campaign as part of the national team supporting caroline lucas to become our first mp. team supporting caroline lucas to become ourfirst mp. i am

bristol 12 years ago to work in the renewable energy industry and i did so for six years working on the plans for many of the awe—inspiring way massive offshore wind farms that stand around the uk coastline generating ever more of their electricity. it felt like i was only changing the world one winter at a time —— one wind turbine at the time and i know that we had to go faster. i could see the wind was blowing, no pun intended! but the barriers were not in the technology but the lack of political wealth from the tired old political parties, so ijoined the green party, the only people in politics you understood what we needed today. still with no intention of becoming a politician. ijust wanted to help, to donate to that, to deliver a few leaflets, provide support behind the scenes, but gradually i got more and more involved and find more ways i could contribute and one thing led to another, i guess! why am i telling you this? because i keep meeting more and more new members who come from all walks of life and want to make a difference and i am here to show you can make a difference and that is vital because we are at a critical moment in our politics, at a crossroads. people have grown tired of chasing the least worst option, of being patronised, ignored and told what to think. we are tired of a tory government playing divide and rule. tired of out of touch policies that ride roughshod over people. tired of politics which amount to little more than old boys club serving the interests of its powers. we are sick and tired of this country's leaders looking at covid rates going up day by day get refusing to mandate masks or even wear them themselves in parliament. leaders who are rich people into work places they do not need to be on hand readers who fail to provide proper sick pay for people who need to isolate. this west country is sick and it is tired. we need better. we demand better. and we see none of that from an official opposition that fails the public, ignores the votes of its own members and cannot take a stand on the biggest issues of the day. conference, there has never been a greater need for the green party. conference, in the green party we

more people are joining us every day. we now have over 53,000 members. why? because the green party is home to the kind of changes people want. common sense policies that can transform lives for the better. green party members elected and activists alike are interested in what would benefit people in their day—to—day lives as well as give us all hope for the future. we are in touch with what matters. by contrast the current government is out of touch with what people are experiencing and lags way behind the country crying out for change. as we struggle to get through this health crisis the vast majority of us know that we cannot just go back to business as usual. the pandemic has exposed a shaky foundation of our economy, the cracks in society and the precarious situation so many find themselves in. we know that this country is ready for change. when they are as the public is clear that they, like us, want something different. just last week a poll showed that there is strong support for bold measures to tackle the climate emergency. people want a carbon tax on the most polluting industries. they want those who fly frequently to pay more for it. they want proper funding for greening their homes and they want ways to eat less meat and dairy every day. only the green party has the policies the public are looking for not only on climate but also in creating a fairer society like public ownership of public services. a pay rise for key workers. and a universal basic income to ensure no one is left behind. we do not accept that inequality is inevitable. we say that those with the most should pay the most. it is time to straighten out the tax system once and for all. that means the richest people, the covid billionaires and the biggest pop, corporations, pay theirfair share the biggest pop, corporations, pay theirfairshare and the biggest pop, corporations, pay theirfair share and that the biggest pop, corporations, pay their fair share and that income

campaign about the passion, about what it really means, but it looks like, to be compassionate. and to ask the green party must represent a model what compassion is in politics. outwardly it means things like rethinking betting's place in the world and looking very seriously at her approach to foreign policy for example. to be compassionate to others means and then, yes and then, the sale of arms to repressive regimes. no ifs and no buts. and it means treating all people as valued human beings, not statistics or inconveniences, dated like unwanted baggage throne and dimes, locked in storage and dumped on planes by home office handlers. compassion is formed of respect and understanding, of listening and acting. it needs us to value others and challenges us to do so by understanding others. it dries us to seek best interests, not just our own. and for us compassion must also extend to the natural world and to every loving feeling creature. compassion is also about

you will have seen that we have reported on the testimony of several women, in the nottinghamshire area, and other areas in england, who have reported their drinks being spiked, notjust drinks but also needle spikes they have suffered in recent days. it was discussed by many police chiefs during the week and raised with the government, as well. we will go back to the green party conference in a moment. now to some other news. the hollywood actor, alec baldwin, has been questioned by police after he fired a prop gun on a film set, accidentally killing the cinematographer and wounding the director. the weapon was supposed to fire blanks. it happened as they were filming a western in new mexico, as lizo mzimba reports. halyna hutchins was an up—and—coming director of photography, named a rising star by american cinematographer magazine in 2017, she was considered to be an exceptionally talented individual. the investigation into what happened on the set of rust, a 19th—century western, is continuing. police say that alec baldwin, the star of the movie, discharged a prop gun during filming. the director joel souza was seriously hurt, halyna hutchins was flown to hospital by helicopter but died from her injuries. one filmmaker who worked with halyna hutchins on his 2020 action film archenemy described her as a huge talent. i met her, before i had seen any of her work, i met her at a film festival, and within a few moments of talking to her, i felt like she had such a strong vibe, such a sense of commitment to art and the integrity of wanting to make cinema, that i wanted to work with her. according to the film's production company, it was an accident that happened when a prop gun carrying blanks misfired. but this early in the investigation, the police say they haven't reached any conclusions and are currently describing it as a shooting investigation. there are so many safety measures and procedures that are supposed to be taken on every single set where there is a firearm, so we're still trying to learn what could have happened, was there a misstep along the way, did someone forget to do something, to try to cut corners? we just don't know, we're still learning. it is, sadly, not the first time someone has died from a shooting during filming. in 1993, the star of the crow, brandon lee, was fatally shot by a gun which everyone thought was only loaded with blank rounds. actor rhys muldoon says he has recently been working on a movie with a large degree of gunfire. the producers actually held a very clearly important meeting and decided to do away with blanks altogether, and use basic special effects and cgi, because in this day and age, you can truly can get those things, of a gun firing, without losing anything. alec baldwin, who is also a producer on the film, has spoken to detectives about what happened. meanwhile, the film world is mourning the loss of halyna hutchins and waiting to see what lessons may have to be learned from her tragic death. lizo mzimba, bbc news. a new nationwide advertising campaign is being launched in the uk, to encourage more people to come forward for covid booster vaccines and the winter flu jab. it comes amid growing calls for the government to re—introduce restrictions in england to slow the spread of the virus and protect the nhs. yesterday more than 50,000 covid cases were recorded in the uk for the first time since the middle ofjuly. borisjohnson has been speaking at a vaccine centre this afternoon. ourautumn and our autumn and winter plan always predicted that cases would rise around about now and we are certainly seeing that in the numbers, we are seeing high levels of infection, but they are not outside the parameters of what was predicted or what we thought we would see in the autumn and winter but it is very important that people do follow the guidance, on general behaviour, and on being cautious and wearing masks in confined places where you are meeting people you don't normally meet. wash hands, ventilation, that kind of thing. but also, get your boosterjab, that is the key message and that is why we have timed it for now because there is some evidence that the vaccines start to wane and you get really very, very good protection with the booster. a new study says about 95% protection, so we are seeing the numbers come up, yesterday we did 250,000 across the country, and we want to see them ramped up even further. thanks to everybody for coming forward but we need to see a lot more. we keep all measures under constant review and we will do whatever we have to do to protect the public but the numbers that we are seeing at the moment are fully in line with what we expected in the autumn and winter plan, and what we want people to do is to come forward and get theirjabs and we also want young people, children at school to be getting theirjabs with complete confidence, there will be booking systems opening tomorrow in addition to the vaccination programme in school. the message is that the boosters are fantastic, and the levels of protection are really very high, but it is also very important that you get one, because the double vaccination provides a lot of protection against serious illness and death but it doesn't protect you against catching the disease and it doesn't protect you against passing it on, so now is the time to get your booster. a group of muslim women from bradford have been given a taste of army life. they were invited by the 4th armoured brigade in york, also known as the black rats, to see how they operate. it's hoped community activities like this will inspire more muslims, especially women, tojoin the british armed forces. the bbc asian network's shabnam mahmood has more. 0h! excellent. put through their paces, army—style. these women from bradford are trying out some military exercises. among them, selena, who is a data analyst, and iram, a beauty therapist. it is scary. it's something i've not done before, but it is exciting and it's an achievement. when you get over that six foot wall and to the other side, yeah, it does feel good. we've done an assault course and we've been going under trenches, overa rope, climbing walls, i've had a few falls, got soaked, but i'm sure it'll be fine. currently there are around 500 muslims in the army, but only a tiny fraction of that figure are women. it is something the military is hoping to change. it's really, really important to get different people in, because we need different people that think in different ways so that, actually, we can be the army of the future. activity days like this, tough as they seem, are part of a drive to get more muslim to learn about the army and its operations and perhaps to encourage a few to pursue a career in the british armed forces. i've actually enjoyed today. by the end of today i probably... if i was much younger, i would have joined the army, because i know there are so many different career aspirations. at this stage in my life, probably not, because i'm quite established in a career. i think at the age of 16 i probably would have at least considered it as an opportunity, because you have a perception of what the army is and coming here and seeing all the opportunities available to you, it has definitely opened up my eyes. after today i would definitely lookj into it, yeah, just because they've got so many amazing experiences and, you know, all these _ different opportunities, - so i would definitely look more into it, yeah. nice and fast, let's go, let's go! more boot camp style training has been planned over the coming months to target muslim women from across yorkshire tojoin the military. shabnam mahmood, bbc news, york. the headlines on bbc news... a cinematographer has died after being shot by a prop gun fired by actor alec baldwin. the film director was also seriously injured on the set in new mexico. tributes are being paid to halyna hutchins, who was 42. the queen is back at windsor castle after spending a night in a london hospital. buckingham palace says she underwent preliminary medical checks but is in good spirits. england's social care watchdog warns social care staff are �*exhausted and depleted' and many people could be left without help this winter. the palace of westminster is falling apart. a recent survey of parliament has found thousands of problems, from cracks in walls and ceilings, to flooding, warped windows and a network of ageing cables. something needs to be done — but the work could cost many billions of pounds, and mps are reluctant to sign if off. peter saull has been to see how bad the situation is. for centuries, it has been a proud symbol of our democracy, but parliament seems rather shy these days, hiding behind a web of scaffolding. inside, they have been assessing the extent of the damage. the lords looks as grand as ever. beneath it in the basement, though, there are scenes like this. more than 50 specialists have spent a combined total of more than 4,500 hours investigating the building during recess periods. more than 2,000 rooms and spaces were examined, with experts recording thousands of issues with stonework, water damage and outdated electrical systems. it's an absolutely fascinating building, but there are problems there. there are water leaks, there are issues with the sewage, there are issues with the electrics. the team who run the building on a day—to—day basis, it is a safe building. but you need to do a project on this scale to really preserve the building for generations to come. the restoration of this building is one of the longest—running sagas in british politics. it's been three and a half years since mps voted to refurbish it, but it's still not clear how long it will take, where the mps and peers will go in the meantime, and how many billions of pounds it will cost. it is going to be an expensive project, and that is why it mustn't be any more expensive than it has to be _ i think the country at large is very proud of the palace of westminster. it is an international symbol, but it's also a statement, isn't it, of our belief in our democracy? that our democracy is something that it is worth being bold about and saying to the world it's something that is important, is great and indeed is beautiful. and i think our building does that. but we have a responsibility to taxpayers to keep the costs under control. more surveys will take place over the winter and into next year. some progress has already been made. the elizabeth tower, home to big ben, has been gradually coming out of its shell. but returning the whole palace of westminster to its former glories will be a long, painstaking task. staying with crumbling infrastructure... when a sinkhole appeared on a residential street in cheshire last year, the local community were told it would be fixed within days. but, 18 months later, they're still waiting. as a way of catching the council's attention — and expressing their frustration, they've now written a song about the situation, which has become an unlikely youtube hit. ian haslam has the story. it is one of the more unusual protest tunes but the sinkhole song is drawing attention to a big problem. # i'm feeling ecstatic i'm stopping the traffic # causing mayhem, pain and strife. # i'm a hole, a sinkhole # a stinking hole...# with the help of a few friends, we've created a genre of music we like to call sinkhole. i think the fact that oliver's in this, a lot of people have been drawn to it with his presence alone. he's changed, i'll be honest with you. i think he's found fame intoxicating. # they turned up with a digger which only made me bigger... he's roughly the same age as the sinkhole. so they've grown—up together, oliver and the sinkhole. grown—up together, yes. he's never known a life without a sinkhole. it's amazing what you get used to, isn't it? # sinkhole # stinking hole # stinky sinkhole.. luke wrote the song with music teacher and frustrated resident, ali. that song is a catchy little number, isn't it? it gets right in your ear, doesn't it? it's a right ear worm. you can't get rid of it, can you? could give adele a run for her money. maybe it'll be number one. i doubt it, though. it's definitely a niche subject, isn't it? adele is not singing about sinkholes, and neither is anybody else right now, apart from yourselves. yeah. # i haven't always been mean # i started life as a street # then sank the road and broke a sewage pipe...# one of the residents has told me that nature has reclaimed this road and it's tough to argue with that. look at the state of this! there are all kinds of plant life here. one of the bushes is even growing tomatoes. i would not want to eat those! even worse than that, it's become a home for rats. it's literally a rat sanctuary right now. cheshire east council says this is an extremely complex piece of work and that it's continuing to work hard on how to address the problems. we can't use us this drive. and theyjust don't care. i've asked about a rebate on council tax but, no. a main gas main runs up that side of it, right up to the top of the street. if that went, everything within a quarter of a mile would go. # the council ignore it, the rats adore it # tomatoes grew in me last year...# the more people that view, the better it is. we show the local council that, hey, it's notjust people on this street suffering with it, it's the wider community. which is why they are continuing to sing about it... # i'm a hole, hole, stinking hole # a stinky sinkhole # i'm a hole # i'm a sinkhole, i'm a hole...# i didn't see the swaying i was looking for from the crowd behind but your performance was great. thank you. the residents are planning a celebration when the hole is finally fixed. ian haslam, bbc news. you never know, you might go to number one. the fossilised remains of the largest triceratops dinosaur ever discovered have been bought for almost $8 million at an auction in paris. the three—horned, eight metre long skeleton — called big john — was unearthed in the american state of south dakota. the bbc�*s tim allman has the story. # big john, big john #. when you see him, in all his glory, the nickname makes perfect sense. a giant of the late cretaceous period and a discovery that's almost unprecedented. translation: these auctions are absolutely rare _ and exceptional, simply because the raw material is rare. we often find dinosaur fossils, but it is more difficult to find connected, complete, or almost complete fossils. the remains of big john consists of more than 200 bones — around 60% of his body — that had to be painstakingly reassembled by specialists in italy. translation: what's here? there's mostly the vertebrae, the lowerjaw of the skull and the leg bones, so it's really a nightmare to assemble because they're quite fragile and quite heavy bones at the same time. the triceratops dates back more than 65 million years, a plant—eating dinosaur, one of the dominant creatures of its era. so, a large turnout for this auction and, in the end, big john went for a big price... bangs gavel applause almost five times the estimate. the buyer happy, but wanting to keep a low profile. it's been acquired by an american collector and that individual is absolutely thrilled with the idea of being able to bring a piece like this to his personal use. although these fossilised remains are now part of a private collection, the auction house says the buyer may lend them out to a museum or gallery for public viewings. # big bad john... either way, big john is coming home. tim allman, bbc news. pop—star ed sheeran will be following in the footsteps of dolly parton, eltonjohn and orlando bloom to become the latest famous face to read a bedtime story, on the children's channel — cbeebies. he'll be reading a book about a little boy with a stammer, a speech disorder that the singer also struggled with as a child. hello, my name's ed. when i was little, i had a stutter, and that means that when i spoke, sometimes the words got a bit stuck on the way out. it made me feel different because i would be in school, the teacher would ask a question that i knew the answer to, i would put my hand in the air but i could never get the words out. i used to worry that i could never speak without stuttering, but now i sing and talk to people all time, sometimes to lots of people. perhaps you have a stutter, too, or you know somebody who does. the bedtime story tonight is just for you, it is about a little boy who had a stutterjust like i did. it is called i talk like a river, byjordan scott and sidney smith. now it's time for a look at the weather with stav. hello. the rest of today is looking pretty similar to yesterday, but a bit more cloud around for many of us, particularly for england and wales, with a few scattered showers. i say "a few" because we have a ridge of high pressure right across the country and that will keep things largely settled. some good sunny spells around. here is the ridge of high pressure which has been moving in from the south—west. we are in between weather systems, with this one arriving just in time for the weekend. quite a bit of sunshine around to end the day, further showers, though, for england and wales. pretty well scattered, many places escaping them and staying dry. variable amounts of cloud, here. quite a breezy afternoon and early evening, particularly across northern and eastern parts of the uk. those temperatures reach highs of around 13 or 14 but when you factor in the wind, it will feel cooler than that. into this evening and overnight, many places will stay dry. those showers will fade away. much of england and wales and eastern scotland stays dry overnight, but we will see this weather front arrive across the far west, bringing increasing cloud, increasing breeze and one or two showers. not quite as cold as further east where we could see pockets of frost in one or two locations of eastern scotland, perhaps eastern england. we're seeing the area of high pressure retreat away, and this new frontal system will arrive on saturday. that will bring cloud and outbreaks of rain and it will also drive in mild south—westerlies, so temperatures on the rise for both saturday and sunday. dry weather for england and wales. myabe light rain for western england and wales later in the day. western scotland and northern ireland will see heavy and more persistent rain. we will see the strongest of the wind here, these are mean wind speeds, could see gusts up to 40 or 50mph. feeling milder, though. 14, maybe 15. double figures across—the—boa rd. into sunday, the frontal system pushes further eastwards. more places seeing more cloud or longer spells of rain, maybe the odd heavy shower across western scotland and northern ireland. another blustery day for most but winds coming from the south—west so it should feel mild. top temperatures around 15 or 16. best of the weather in the east of the country. party to get more

there have been a few in the past and there are very stringent measures on movie sets, television sets as well, for safety, and especially relating to the use of guns, and the use of live ammunition is banned on movie sets. generally these are terms that are essentially blanks. they have the barrel but there is no billiton inside that case to be fired, so there is an investigation going on to find out exactly what went wrong with that particular garden and how something like this could have happened. people are frankly baffled as to how it could have happened. a cinematographer and

do not know enough _ with no adaptation. given that we do not know enough about _ with no adaptation. given that we do not know enough about the - not know enough about the circumstances and what happened on the set, can you talk us through in more general terms about the safety procedures that have to be respected and obeyed in the film industry when there is a firearm onset?— there is a firearm onset? firstly everybody _ there is a firearm onset? firstly everybody has _ there is a firearm onset? firstly everybody has to _ there is a firearm onset? firstly everybody has to be _ there is a firearm onset? firstly everybody has to be made - there is a firearm onset? firstly| everybody has to be made aware there is a firearm onset? firstly - everybody has to be made aware of the fact that there is a lie firearm onset and everybody will have had to skip to know that is expected in the particular sequence we are shooting. as an example of a scenario, i would show the actor concerned how to use the firearm, let him have some tests with it to make sure he is happy as to how it works and have it loads and so on and so forth long before we actually do the scene so nothing is happening, nobody is going to be surprised by that. anything being fired need a camera we put shields up fired need a camera we put shields up in front of the camera or in front of any of the crew with some stuff which is optically correct so you can shoot through it but you can hit it with a sledgehammer and you would never get through it so that gives an element of protection there. any actors which have been shot at with blank cartridges have to be stood on a certain position or far enough back so that they will not feel any blast from that blank cartridge. occasionally if it has got to be very close up to the actor there are guns which are adapted which will function in every way but they will not actually have a blast which comes out of the muzzle but they will actually throw an empty cartridge at the side of it as an automatic that instance but it is perfectly safe and you can put it up to go ahead and they will be no problem. but there is an assumption sometimes that a blank cartridge is totally and utterly safe, which it is not, and that instance on the enemy at the gates every morning with a lot of extras that came out of berlin who were russian and did not speak good english i would demonstrate the power by putting a melon on top of the post, putting a muzzle of a rifle up with a blank cartridge and it would completely vaporise the melon and something like that would be a demonstration. somebody like alec baldwin is obviously very used to using firearms onset and i would have thought that the armourers or the proper guys in charge of that, it is extraordinary that two people could have been, when kildunne one injured, unless he might have been using something like a double barrel shotgun where he had two barrels. i don't know. at the moment i would not speculate. $5 don't know. at the moment i would rrot speculate-— not speculate. as a double barrel shot: un not speculate. as a double barrel shotgun where _ not speculate. as a double barrel shotgun where he _ not speculate. as a double barrel shotgun where he had _ not speculate. as a double barrel shotgun where he had two - not speculate. as a double barrel. shotgun where he had two barrels. i don't know. at the moment i would not speculate. are the measures that you describe legally the world are ten different film sets pick and choose from what you have described? i think that there is no global legal system to cover this. in this country we have the health and safety executive which pertain very tight margins for doing anything like that with stunt work and so on and we are very much controlled by them and there is usually a health and safety person onset, but in mexico, even new mexico, i believe the laws would not be quite as tight down there. again this is speculative and certainly in the old days a lot of people use to go down to that part of the world to make westerns where they did not for instance have the same regulations regarding the treatment of animals and things, horses and so on, things which in california you would never be able to trap horses up and so on. even that is easing up but you might find there may not necessarily be the same controls in mexico than there may be further up in the states. ., ., ., ., ,, states. former film armourer, thank ou so states. former film armourer, thank you so much- _ let's get more on that news we broke in the last hour that the bbc understands the home secretary has agreed to change the law to allow victims of domestic abuse more time to report to police. more from our political correspondent alex forsyth. it isa it is a change in the law. as things stand when there is an alleged common assault that involves domestic abuse, any common assault, there are only six months from when that incident allegedly taking place for police to charge someone. campaigners say when it comes to cases of domestic abuse that is not long enough because it can take a long enough because it can take a long time for victims to be able to come forward and these investigations can be complicated so there has been a push for that time limit specifically an alleged common assaults involving domestic abuse to be expanded. it is my understanding the home secretary priti patel has agreed to do that to allow up to two years rather than six months which gives victims of domestic abuse longer to report back to police and i understand there will be a renewed push to ensure that police and prosecutors are alive to coercive behaviour which can often go along with cases of domestic abuse. it is my understanding they will be a change put down to a bill currently making its way through parliament, the police crime and sentencing though, and that will enact this change in the law. as you might expect initial conversations i had been having with campaigners they say have the government goes ahead with this that would be very welcome news indeed. with this that would be very welcome news indeed-— a new nationwide advertising campaign is being launched in the uk, to encourage more people to come forward for covid booster vaccines and the winter flu jab. it comes amid growing calls for the government to reintroduce restrictions in england to slow the spread of the virus and protect the nhs. yesterday more than 50,000 covid cases were recorded in the uk for the first time since the middle ofjuly. borisjohnson has been speaking at a vaccine centre this afternoon. so, our autumn and winter plan always preditcted that cases would rise around about now. we are certainly seeing that in the numbers. we are seeing high levels of infection, but they are not outside the parameters of what was predicted or what we thought we had seen in the autumn and winter plan. but it is very important that people do follow the guidance on general behaviour, on being cautious on wearing masks in confined places where you are meeting people you do not normally meet. wear a mask, wash hands, ventilation, all that kind of thing. but also get your booster jab, and that is the key message we want to get across. that is why we have timed it for now because there is some evidence obviously that the vaccine starts to wane and you get really very, very good protection with the booster. i mean, a new study says about 95% protection, so we are seeing the numbers come up. yesterday i think we did 250,000 across the country. we want to see them ramped up even further. thanks to everybody for coming forward but we need to see a lot more. we keep all measures under constant review. we will do whatever we have to do to protect the public but the numbers that we are seeing at the moment are fully in line with what we expected in the autumn and winter plan. what we want people to do is to come forward and get theirjabs. we also want young people, we want kids at school, to be getting theirjabs with complete confidence and there will be booking systems opening from tomorrow in addition to the vaccination programme in schools, so the message is that the boosters are fantastic. i mean, the levels of protection they are bringing are very high, but it is also very, very important that you get one because the double vaccination provides a lot of protection against serious illness and death, but it does not protect you against catching the disease and it does not protect you against passing it on so now is the time to get your booster. meanwhile, speaking a short time, ago our health correspondentjim reed said, despite infections being high, hospital admissions are still much lower than injanuary. the thing that scientific advisers and ministers are looking at most is not so much cases as hospital admissions, so they are watching that very, very carefully, and at the moment you have seen a slight increase in hospital admissions over the last couple of weeks or so but you have not seen anything like the huge increase that we saw back injanuary when we were seeing cases about this sort of level. so at the moment across the uk you are looking about 8000 people in hospital for example with covid. back injanuary it was about 40,000. now, we are not at that level yet. what the government is saying is until you see unsustainable pressure on the nhs they do not see the need to move to this plan b. in scotland, nhs lanarkshire has moved to the "highest risk level" as its three hospitals are at maximum capacity. the military was already asked to provide additional support at three university hospitals, but the health board said occupancy levels are still "critical". our scotland correspondent alexandra mckenzie has more. there is pressure across the nhs in scotland but nhs lanarkshire have confirmed that they are at the highest risk level due to what the health board described as critical occupancy levels and also the overall pressure on the whole system. they have described the situation in the nhs lanarkshire as unprecedented. the health board said there was sustained pressure across its three university hospitals and thatis its three university hospitals and that is not showing any signs of easing. the hospitals they are talking about our hero myers, monklands and west show. the health board described the situation as relentless. they said it was due to bed shortages but also a shortage of staff. they said there was a lot of staff. they said there was a lot of staff sickness, staff who are stressed and also a lot of self isolation because of the covid pandemic. the health board said their priority is the safety of their priority is the safety of their patients and also staff so they are working through options to try and increase the number of staff and also to increase the flow of patients through the hospital. the military has already been providing some help. that is medical help and also with drivers as well. in august nhs lanarkshire had started postponing some of their operations. they are now doing a bit more of that and some elective cancer operations are also going to be postponed. the hospital has said they will reschedule those as soon as possible. they will reschedule those as soon as possible-— buckingham palace says the queen is in good spirits and back at windsor castle after spending wednesday night in hospital. she was taken in for tests, after being forced to cancel a trip to northern ireland. her doctors had told her to rest, following a busy round of public engagements. here's our royal correspondent, nicholas witchell. windsor, two days ago, early afternoon, a convoy of royal vehicles were seen heading in the direction of london. was this the convoy taking the queen to hospital? at around the same time, at windsor castle itself, a very small royal standard was seen to be flying, its presence supporting the palace's claim that the queen was resting at the castle. in fact, the queen was here, at the private king edward vi! hospital in central london. the palace clearly hoped her visit would go unnoticed. it did, until last night, when the sun led with the story that she had spent the night in hospital. that prompted a short statement from the palace. buckingham palace insists that, like any citizen, the queen is entitled to privacy over medical issues. the palace will therefore say nothing about the nature of the investigations ordered by her doctors. the one thing we can say is that she seemed completely well on tuesday night when she hosted a reception for global business leaders and others at windsor castle. according to people who saw her, she was relaxed and on good form. that was just the latest in a busy few weeks for her, which had included a visit to cardiff for the opening of the welsh parliament on 14th october, her attendance two days earlier at a service at westminster abbey to mark the centenary of the royal british legion, quite apart from the daily and largely unseen work of the monarch, with audiences and boxes of paperwork. of course, it is good morning, isn't it, to you...? according to the palace, the queen resumed that paperwork last night a few hours after returning from hospital. she is, says the palace, continuing with light duties and remains determined to attend the cop26 summit in glasgow at the end of the month. nicholas witchell, bbc news. the prime minister boris johnson has sent his best wishes to her majesty — he said he understood that the queen was now back at her desk. our royal correspondent sarah campbell said there's still much we don't know about the situation. the royal standard is flying high above windsor castle, so we assume that the queen is in residence and certainly the indication from the palace is that she remains in good spirits. yesterday we were told she came back from that trip to hospital and she was at her desk at work, albeit undertaking light duties. what could that mean? well, daily duties of the monarch include of course looking through the government papers, the red boxes, so we assume she would be undertaking those sort of duties. other than releasing information about those preliminary investigations, those tests that she was taken to hospitalfor, the palace have given no further medical detail as to what those tests are for and regarding the results, whether she might have to go back to hospital depending on the results of those tests. we have no indication from the palace whether we will be informed about that. it is of course a tricky balance for the palace trying to keep the public informed about their head of state while of course respecting her right to privacy on medical matters. she may be one of the most famous — if not the most famous — woman in the world but she still has a right to privacy on private medical matters such as this. she is 95 years old and inevitably her health is going to be of increasing concern going forward. we are told her medical team are taking a cautious approach. the next time we expect to see her in person will be at the cop26 summit in roughly ten days' time. the green party is calling for every household to be given £320 to help pay for high energy bills. the policy was unveiled as the party's annual conference gets underway in birmingham. let's get more on those pledges from the green party. our political correspondent ione wells is at the conference with more. talk us through these speeches. one message that really came across from the co—leaders was how much of a key moment this is for the green party who have a record number of councillors in england and wales. they sister in parties in government in scotland and of course there government is giving up too. 26. they also touched on points like the rising cost of living in the energy crisis we are seeing at the moment with gas prices higher than they have been on people seeing rising energy bills which has got all parties talking about the need to move away from a reliance on fossil fuels and the big policy be announced today was that the green party would like to give every household 300 and 20p to cope with these additional bills which they say would be paid for by a one—off tax on landlords to raise 9 billion p. they have laid out what their vision is. the challenge for the green party is getting c—train the table and positions of power. both leaders emphasising the want to be seen notjust as a pressure group at a serious electoral party and win more seats also in the houses of parliament as well. they face a couple of challenges. one of the key ones being the fact that at the moment we are seeing some of the more radical green groups like extinction rebellion vv dominate the headlines when it comes to the green agenda at the moment and those groups both the co—leaders of actively distance themselves from as part of their election campaign as well. secondly we are seeing all major political parties trumpet their green policies with the uk conservative governmentjust their green policies with the uk conservative government just this week announcing their net zero strategy so with all parties talking about this, and this of course being the green party's qsp, they are having to fight a little bit harder for that acknowledgement and for those seats around the tables in the corridors power.— the care regulator for england is warning that the sector faces a "tsunami of unmet need" this winter, unless staffing shortages are tackled. the care quality commission has called for immediate measures to fill job vacancies. the government says it's providing £162 million to boost recruitment. alison holt reports. the unmet need which today's report warns is already a reality for the cooks. melvin has a rare brain condition and, unable to get any support, dorothy is caring on her own. he can't get out of a chair on his own. he can't mobilise on his own. he can't go up and down the stairs on his own. he can't wash, dress, shower. take yourtime... it's just full—on, 24/7 caring. melvin was sent home by the nhs injune. for a short time, care workers came in, then they said they didn't have enough staff to continue. that was 12 weeks ago. according to the charity carers uk, many family carers are being pushed to the edge, like dorothy. i'm on my knees. i'm on my knees with exhaustion. the strain of having to do it all on our own. we're left here with nobody. there's no care package, no accessibility to services. we feel completely and utterly isolated. and scared. today's report from the regulator, the care quality commission, warns of the serious impact staffing shortages are having across the health and care system in england. job vacancies in care homes have risen from 6% to 10% in five months. and nursing homes are de—registering because they can't get nurses. it concludes urgent action is needed. we're calling for, in our report, increased funding to stabilise the adult social care workforce. and that benefits everybody, it has a positive ripple effect right across health and social care. and without that stability, without that stable, adult social care workforce, there's the real risk of a tsunami of unmet need causing instability right across the system. the government has said it is putting £162 million into boosting the recruitment and retention of care staff and that it appreciates their dedication and tireless work. for many years, this has been a workforce that is under incredible pressure. but, of course, that is intensified at this time, particularly as we have 1.1 million vacancies, there is a lot of competition for labour, so it is a worry, and that's why we've announced this £162.5 million today, which is there to effectively retain and to build extra capacity, and also to bring in thousands of new people. whilst welcoming the money, councils and care organisations say it won't be enough. alison holt. now it's time for a look at the weather with stav. we have ended on a fine note thanks to high pressure building on from the south—west bringing sunshine. still a few showers, pretty well scattered, most places should stay dry. we are in between weather systems. there is no frontal system will be arriving across western areas as we start the weekend. in each other�*s fading away quickly this evening in most places will be dry. central and eastern areas will see clear spells the fight to win so it will be quite chilly. further west not quite as cold as what we will see further east where we could see pockets of frost out of town. the high pressure is retreating away this weekend are living in the frontal system to push on from the west with quite a few isobars so it will be windy but the winds will be coming in from the south—west so temperatures will be on the rise saturday and sunday, feeling quite mild, but there will be some spells of sugary rain spreading from west to east during saturday and sunday. hello, this is bbc news. the headlines: a cinematographer has died after being shot by a prop gun fired by actor alec baldwin. the film's director was also seriously injured on the set in new mexico. tributes are being paid to halyna hutchins, who was 42. she had such a strong

to see them ramped up even further. the queen is back at windsor castle after spending a night in hospital for preliminary medical checks. buckingham palace say she is in good spirits. england�*s social care watchdog warns staff shortages will leave a "tsunami" of people without the help they need this winter. a week on from the killing of conservative mp sir david amess, people in essex hold a silence in his memory. sport and a full round up from the bbc sport centre. good afternoon. from the bbc sport centre. the fifth match of the test series between england and india�*s men, which was controversially postponed last month, has been re—scheduled and will be played from july 1st at edgbaston next summer. india led the series 2—1 when the game was called off — saying that they had been unable to field a team due to fears of further coronavirus cases inside their camp. the fixture can�*t be played at the original venue, old trafford, because of other events scheduled to take place. instead old trafford will stage the second test against south africa in august. and edgbaston will stage this one. ireland have lost their chance to get through to the next round of cricket�*s t20 world cup after a heavy defeat to namibia, who won the last group match by eight wickets. ireland had started well, but lost three wickets in quick succession, finishing onjust 125 for 8. so it was an easy run chase for namibia. they ended with a great partnership between captain gerhard erasmas — who brought up his half century — and david wiese with the final boundary to win it. so it�*s namibia who are into the super 12 stage, which starts tomorrow. scotland women are looking to make it three wins from three against hungary in their world cup qualifier at hampden this evening. a third win in a row could put them six points clear of their nearest competitors ukraine, athough spain still currently top the group. scotland played in front of a crowd of 5,000, last month at hampden. chelsea and scotland striker erin cuthbert says it makes a difference having so many fans, but that support for the women�*s game in scotland and england still has a long way to go. we�*re building it up at chelsea, then we gojuvenetus and they had sold out their capacity. we are not far away and it comes with performers as players we need to keep performing as well and the more results we get, the better performance we bring, the more attractive football the more we are going to see through the gates. it�*s been a busy week in european football with 48 matches played between uefa�*s three

assisted dying. the proposed law would give adults in england and wales, who are terminally ill, the right to end their life, if doctors think they only have six months or less to live. campaigners say a change in the law would give those at the end of their lives greater control over how and when they die. but opponents fear it could leave vulnerable people feeling pressure to end their life. graham satchell reports. tina humphrey became a household name in 2012. her routines with her rescue dog chandi on britain�*s got talent stole the hearts of the public. they went all the way to that year�*s final. she was amazing. an amazing woman. she was incredibly intelligent, determined, wonderful person. yes, just an incredible woman. steve and tina met in 2015. it was love at first sight. just a week before their wedding, tina was diagnosed with an aggressive form of skin cancer. her father and her mother had both died of cancer, and she had seen what happens at the end of it and she was determined that wasn�*t going to happen to her. when the time eventually came, tina wanted to be able to say goodbye properly. she wanted to be fully aware and in control at the end. it was exactly a textbook thing of what she had wanted to avoid. because that�*s what she�*d seen her parents go through and she wanted to avoid that. she didn�*t want to shorten her life. she wanted to shorten her death. that was the important thing, and she wanted it to be peaceful and calm. and it turned out a nightmare for her and for me. the proposed new law being discussed today is short, with few details, but it does say assisted dying would only be an option for someone who was terminally ill, mentally competent and in their final months of life. two independent doctors and a high courtjudge would have to assess each request. religious leaders and other critics of the bill are worried. the archbishop of canterbury, for example, says rather than accepting what he calls assisted suicide, we should aim to live in a society that assists people to live. there�*s no difference in us between compassion, it is our concern about the effectiveness of the safeguards, and the care for the vulnerable, and the fact that not all families are as loving and caring as tina�*s husband, who is obviously an extraordinary man, and a wonderful man. not all families are like that. this is grace, another rescue dog trained by tina. having grace has helped steve cope with the loss of his wife. he now wants other people in tina�*s position to be able to die with dignity. graham satchell, bbc news. a two minute silence has been held in leigh on sea in essex, close to where the conservative mp, sir david amess was stabbed to death last friday. from today, mps are able to have trained security guards on hand when they hold surgeries with the public in their consitutuencies. the offer of extra protection has been made by the commons speaker sir lindsay hoyle and the home secretary priti patel. meanwhile, ali harbi ali, who is 25, has been charged with his murder and has appeared at the old bailey and will face trial in march next year. more than 1,000 people are dying from covid—19 every day in russia, a figure that makes it the worst—affected in europe. the scale of new infections and deaths has alarmed authorities so much that all workplaces are being shut down for a week from the start of november. many russians are sceptical of the vaccine the country itself produced, leaving them unprotected. richard galpin has visited one hospital in russia�*s north—west, and sent this report. another frantic day in hospital number one, here in vologda. the reality of the covid epidemic laid bare. wards in this hospitalfilled with patients on oxygen to try to keep them alive. the vast majority admitted to hospital because they had not taken the virus seriously. there are 800 beds in this hospital, and 750 of them are taken, and the vast majority of people who have come here have not been vaccinated. only a quarter of the population in vologda has had the vaccine, a major concern for doctors here. translation: i am very worried about this. - the more unvaccinated people there are, the more patients we have. all the capacity we have in our hospital is dependent on the people being vaccinated. despite all this, the vaccination centre i visited here was quiet. just a few people coming through for the jab, which would save lives. the governor of the region, oleg kuvshinnikov, has been trying to encourage more people to get vaccinated. but many remain wary of the vaccine. like yelena, who is a sceptic. translation: we live in a small town, and what i see around me| contradicts official statistics. i am told there are no side—effects of the vaccine but i see the opposite. in the vologda cemetery, the grave—diggers are in high demand. the number of burials has doubled from 50 a week, to 100. and amongst those who have been dying here from covid, many will have lost their lives because they believed the vaccine was the danger to them, not the virus, which has killed almost 250,000 people across the country. richard galpin, bbc news, vologda. how to care for migrants is once again proving a divisive issue across the european union — with some of its member states accusing belarus, which is not part of the eu, of trying to flood them with people desperate to get into europe. we�*ve looked at the political issues — but now let�*s hear from some of those making the dangerous journey. our correspondent paul adams has been to meet one of those groups — and he sent this special report. trapped in a forest on the eu�*s eastern frontier, a group of syrians exhausted and afraid. "we are absolutely shattered," the voice says. "we have been walking since four in the morning." but how did they get here? two weeks earlier theirjourney starts with a tearful farewell in northern iraq, and an optimistic selfie at the airport. "we are leaving for belarus," says idris. we went to erbil. the city is full of travel agents catering for would—be migrants. the first step, a visa. murad isn�*t doing anything illegal, but he still doesn�*t want to be identified. if you have passports, we send it to the belarus tourism companies and they send us invitations. so when people come to you, they are not... you know they are not going to belarus for a holiday? of course. you know they are going to europe? yeah. next, a smuggler... he is preparing to take a group through belarus to europe. translation: if you are using a smuggler, it is going to cost| you a lot at the borders. it will cost between $9,000 and $12,000. by now, idris and his friends have reached the bela russian capital, minsk. the airport is jammed with people making the same journey. the group has been told to go to a hotel and wait for instructions. are you worried about the journey? translation: of course we are. we are crossing the border illegally. we don�*t know what will happen. we can�*t trust anyone, not even our smuggler. we�*re putting our faith in god�*s hantz. we�*re putting our faith in god�*s hands. in may, the president of belarus, alexander lukashenko, threatened to flood the eu with drugs and migrants. revenge, it seems, for eu sanctions. soon, thousands were crossing into lithuania. we went to see the border for ourselves. the guards here still catching dozens of migrants every day. lithuania says belarus is actively helping them to cross illegally. in some places, the border is little more than a gap in the forest. we can see some belarussian border guards coming right now. until the crisis began, there was regular communication between the two sides, but after president lukashenko threatened to allow migrants into the eu, all of that cooperation stopped and people started to flood across this border, and you can see just how easy it was. but thousands of migrants are now in detention, more than 700 here in a former prison. this, for some, is where hopes and dreams come to an abrupt end. they can apply for asylum but most won�*t get it. after several days of silence, idris and his friends are back in touch, heading into poland. he couldn�*t film but says belarussian soldiers loaded 50 migrants onto a truck, took them to the border and showed them the way. out of the forest and into the eu, in cars arranged by smugglers. with the help of belarus and at the cost of $7,000 each, idris and his friends have made it. they�*ll apply for asylum and see what happens next. paul adams, bbc news. the headlines on bbc news... a cinematographer has died after being shot by a prop gun fired by actor alec baldwin. the director of the star�*s new film was also seriously injured. tributes are being paid to halyna hutchins, who was 42. a new advertising campaign is launched, encouraging people to come forward for coronavirus boosterjabs — as scientists advising the government say they should plan for new restrictions now. the queen is back at windsor castle after spending a night in a london hospital. buckingham palace says she underwent preliminary medical checks but is in good spirits. the palace of westminster is falling apart. a recent survey of parliament has found thousands of problems, from cracks in walls and ceilings, to flooding, warped windows and a network of ageing cables. something needs to be done — but the work could cost many billions of pounds, and mps are reluctant to sign if off. peter saull has been to see how bad the situation is. for centuries, it has been a proud symbol of our democracy, but parliament seems rather shy these days, hiding behind a web of scaffolding. inside, they have been assessing the extent of the damage. the lords looks as grand as ever. beneath it in the basement, though, there are scenes like this. more than 50 specialists have spent a combined total of more than 4,500 hours investigating the building, during recess periods. more than 2,000 rooms and spaces were examined, with experts recording thousands of issues with stonework, water damage and outdated electrical systems. it�*s an absolutely fascinating building, but there are problems there. there are water leaks, there are issues with the sewage, there are issues with the electrics. the team who run the building on a day—to—day basis, it is a safe building. but you need to do a project on this scale to really preserve the building for generations to come. the restoration of this building is one of the longest—running sagas in british politics. it has been three and a half years since mps voted to refurbish it, but it is still not clear how long it will take, where the mps and peers will go in the meantime, and how many billions of pounds it will cost. it is going to be an expensive project, and that is why it mustn't be any more expensive than it has to be _ i think the country at large is very proud of the palace of westminster. it is an international symbol, but it is also a statement, isn't it, of our belief in our democracy? that our democracy is something that it is worth being bold about and saying to the world it is something that is important, is great and indeed is beautiful. and i think our building does that. but we have a responsibility to taxpayers to keep the costs under control. more surveys will take place over the winter and into next year. some progress has already been made. the elizabeth tower, home to big ben, has been gradually coming out of its shell. but returning the whole palace of westminster to its former glories will be a long, painstaking task. peter saull, bbc news. for black history month we�*re turning back the clock to look at the story of preston�*s caribbean community through the

british—built robot that uses cameras to create abstract art, has been released — after egyptian authorities detained it at customs. the robot, called ai—da, was seized by border agents last week, who feared her robotics may have been hiding spy tools. she was due to open and present her work at the great pyramid of giza yesterday. i hope she had her covid passport! the fossilised remains of the largest tricera—tops dinosaur ever discovered have been bought for almost $8 million at an auction in paris. the three—horned, eight metre long skeleton — called big john — was unearthed in the american state of south dakota. the bbc�*s tim allman has the story. # big john, big john #. when you see him, in all his glory, the nickname makes perfect sense. a giant of the late cretaceous period and a discovery that�*s almost unprecedented. translation: these auctions are absolutely rare _ and exceptional, simply because the raw material is rare. we often find dinosaur fossils, but it is more difficult to find connected, complete, or almost complete fossils. the remains of big john consists of more than 200 bones — around 60% of his body — that had to be painstakingly reassembled by specialists in italy. translation: what's here? there�*s most of the vertebrae, the lowerjaw of the skull and the leg bones, so it�*s really a nightmare to assemble because they�*re quite fragile and quite heavy bones at the same time. the triceratops dates back more than 65 million years, a plant—eating dinosaur, one of the dominant creatures of its era. so, a large turnout for this auction and, in the end, big john went for a big price... bangs gavel applause almost five times the estimate. the buyer happy, but wanting to keep a low profile. it�*s been acquired by an american collector and that individual is absolutely thrilled with the idea of being able to bring a piece like this to his personal use. although these fossilised remains are now part of a private collection, the auction house says the buyer may lend them out to a museum or gallery for public viewings. # big bad john. ..# either way, big john is coming home. tim allman, bbc news. now it�*s time for a look at the weather. hello. the rest of today is looking pretty similar to yesterday, but a bit more cloud around for many of us, particularly for england and wales, with a few scattered showers. i say "a few" because we have a ridge of high pressure right across the country and that will keep things largely settled. some good sunny spells around. here is the ridge of high pressure which has been moving in from the south—west. we are in between weather systems, with this one arriving just in time for the weekend. quite a bit of sunshine around to end the day, further showers, though, for england and wales. pretty well scattered, many places escaping them and staying dry. variable amounts of cloud, here. quite a breezy afternoon and early evening, particularly across northern and eastern parts of the uk. those temperatures reach highs of around 13 or 14 but when you factor in the wind, it will feel cooler than that. into this evening and overnight, many places will stay dry. those showers will fade away. much of england and wales and eastern scotland stays dry overnight, but we will see this weather front arrive across the far west, bringing increasing cloud, increasing breeze and one or two showers. not quite as cold as further east where we could see pockets of frost in one or two locations of eastern scotland, perhaps eastern england. we�*re seeing the area of high pressure retreat away, and this new frontal system will arrive on saturday. that will bring cloud and outbreaks of rain and it will also drive in mild south—westerlies, so temperatures on the rise for both saturday and sunday. a lot of dry weather for england and wales. myabe light rain for western england and wales later in the day. western scotland and northern ireland will see heavy and more persistent rain. we will see the strongest of the winds here, too, these are mean wind speeds, could see gusts up to 40 or 50mph. feeling milder, though. 14, maybe 15. double figures across—the—boa rd. into sunday, the frontal system pushes further eastwards. more places seeing more cloud or even longer spells of rain, maybe the odd heavy shower across western scotland and northern ireland. another blustery day for most but winds coming from the south—west so it should feel mild. top temperatures around 15 or 16. best of the weather in the east of the country. this is bbc news. the headlines: scientists advising the government say stricter covid measures should be made ready for rapid deployment — but the government says plan b for england isn�*t needed yet, as it launches a new boosterjab campaign. we keep all measures under constant review. we�*ll do whatever we have to do to protect the public, but the numbers that we are seeing at the moment are fully in line with what we expected. tributes are being paid to cinematographer halyna hutchins, who�*s died after actor alec baldwin fired a prop gun on the set of his latest film. the film�*s director was also injured. she had such a strong vibe, such a sense of a commitment to art and the integrity of wanting to make cinema. buckingham palace says the queen is in good spirits after returning to windsor castle, having spent wednesday night in hospitalfor preliminary medical checks. the social care watchdog in england warns many people could be left without help this winter because of an exhausted and depleted work force. people in leigh—on—sea fell silent earlier today, a week on from the killing of conservative mp sir david amess. the government�*s scientific advisory group, sage, is urging ministers to be ready to rapidly reintroduce some coronavirus restrictions in england this winter if needed. the group says that asking people to work from home could have the greatest impact on stopping the viral spread of covid—19. the move comes as the latest official figures estimate 1.1 million people across the uk tested positive for coronavirus last week — the highest since the end of january. meanwhile, the goverment has launched a new nationwide advertising campaign to encourage more people to come forward for booster vaccines and the winter flu jab. in a moment we�*ll be talking to our health correspondent, jim reed, but first let�*s hear from the prime minister, who has been speaking at a vaccine centre this afternoon. so, our autumn and winter plan always preditcted that cases would rise around about now. we are certainly seeing that in the numbers. we are seeing high levels of infection, but they are not outside the parameters of what was predicted or what we thought we had seen in the autumn and winter plan. but it is very important that people do follow the guidance on general behaviour, on being cautious on wearing masks in confined places where you are meeting people you do not normally meet. wear a mask, wash hands, ventilation, all that kind of thing. but also get your booster jab, and that is the key message we want to get across. that is why we have timed it for now because there is some evidence obviously that the vaccine starts to wane and you get really very, very good protection with the booster. i mean, a new study says about 95% protection, so we are seeing the numbers come up. yesterday i think we did 250,000 across the country. we want to see them ramped up even further. thanks to everybody for coming forward but we need to see a lot more. we keep all measures under constant review. we will do whatever we have to do to protect the public but the numbers that we are seeing at the moment are fully in line with what we expected in the autumn and winter plan. what we want people to do is to come forward and get theirjabs. we also want young people, we want kids at school, to be getting theirjabs with complete confidence and there will be booking systems opening from tomorrow in addition to the vaccination programme in schools, so the message is that the boosters are fantastic. i mean, the levels of protection are really very high, but it is also very, very important that you get one because the double vaccination provides a lot of protection against serious illness and death, but it does not protect you against catching the disease and it does not protect you against passing it on so now is the time to get your booster. our health correspondentjim reed is here with me now. what is here with me now. is sage recommending? a lot talk what is sage recommending? a lot of talk about the different plants the government might be thinking about at the moment. plan a essentially an england is to do what we are doing at the moment. we are in plan en and guns and the idea is you get the vaccine to control the spread of the virus so the government are talking about rolling out a third booster doses more quickly which is why you are seeing this marketing campaign starting this afternoon which will be rolled out and better detail this afternoon. and you are seeing things like more talk of caution, worth around that kind of thing, but plan b would be a switch to a essentially what sort of exists already in scotland and wales into a certain extent in northern ireland, which is to go stricter measures with the mask mandates in law rather than recommending it, things like vaccine passports, a stronger recommendation to work from home. there has been a lot of press attention on whether we switch from planet to plan b at some point soon so that is why there is information from sage is so important. sage is the grip of roughly 100 scientific advisors that advise ministers on how to control essentially the pandemic. ministers have the final say. this is advice from scientists and today they are seeing. you have to read between the lines. policy work on the potential use of these plan b measures should be undertaken now so it can be ready for rapid deployment if required. that sounds very technical but essentially what we are seeing is the government at least a need to have a strong plan in place to move to plan b if it needs it and the ability to do so quickly, so it is a strong indication that it may potentially be needed in the future. what you just heard from boris johnson is that the government has not got a plan to go that far. the phrase you need to look for there is what is called unsustainable pressure as they put it on the nhs. they have been looking at hospitalisations in england which have been going up. they have been nowhere near the level we saw back in january nowhere near the level we saw back injanuary this nowhere near the level we saw back in january this year nowhere near the level we saw back injanuary this year and until the government say we have reached that unsustainable pressure we will stay at plan a. t unsustainable pressure we will stay at plan a.

these are deaths of someone who had a covid positive test within 28 days of their death. yesterday we had about 52,000 cases, today about 49,000 cases. we look at it over a longer period but when we look at these figures the government is still insistent on seeing it is plan a. . , is still insistent on seeing it is plana. ., ,,, is still insistent on seeing it is plana. . ,,, ,, plan a. that is

which means as you see cases go up you still see hospitalisations go up you still see hospitalisations 9° up go up you still see hospitalisations go up but at a lower level. the ons figures show that in england one in every 55 people in england currently has covid, in wales it is one in 45, in scotland and northern ireland, one in 90 and one and 130. cases have been rising especially in secondary school age children but we are not seeing a big reflection on hospitalisations. they have been going up, deaths have been going up but not in the same degree we saw earlier this year. mr; but not in

provide additional support at three university hospitals, but the health board said occupancy levels are still "critical". our correspondent alexandra mackenzie says there�*s pressure right across the nhs in scotland. nhs lanarkshire have confirmed that they are at the highest risk level due to what the health board described as critical occupancy levels and also the overall pressure on the whole system. they have described the situation in nhs lanarkshire as unprecedented. the health board said there was sustained pressure across its three university hospitals and that is not showing any signs of easing. the hospitals they are talking about are hairmyers, monklands and wishaw. the health board described the situation as relentless. they said it was due to bed shortages but also a shortage of staff. they said there was a lot of staff sickness, staff who are stressed and also a lot of self isolation because of the covid pandemic. the health board said their priority is the safety of their patients and also staff so they are working through options to try and increase the number of staff and also to increase the flow of patients through the hospital. the military has already been providing some help. that is medical help and also with drivers as well. in august nhs lanarkshire had started postponing some of their operations. they are now doing a bit more of that and some elective cancer operations are also going to be postponed. the hospital has said they will reschedule those as soon as possible. the hollywood actor alec baldwin has been questioned by police after he fired a prop gun on a film set, accidentally killing the cinematographer and wounding the director. the weapon was supposed to fire blanks. it happened as they were filming a western in new mexico, as lizo mzimba reports. halyna hutchins was an up—and—coming director of photography. named a rising star by american cinematographer magazine in 2019, she was considered to be an exceptionally talented individual. the investigation into what happened on the set of rust, a 19th—century western, is continuing. police say that alec baldwin, the star of the movie, discharged a prop gun during filming. the directorjoel souza was seriously hurt. halyna hutchins was flown to hospital by helicopter but died from her injuries. film—maker adam egypt mortimer, who worked with halyna hutchins on his 2020 action film archenemy, described her as a huge talent. i met her, before i had seen any of her work, i met her at a film festival, and within a few moments of talking to her, i felt like she had such a strong vibe, such a sense of commitment to art and the integrity of wanting to make cinema, that i wanted to work with her. according to the film�*s production company, it was an accident that happened when a prop gun carrying blanks misfired. but this early in the investigation, the police say they haven�*t reached any conclusions and are currently describing it as a shooting investigation. there are so many safety measures and procedures that are supposed to be taken on every single set where there is a firearm, so we're still trying to learn what could have happened, was there a misstep along the way, did someone forget to do something, to try to cut corners? we just don't know, we're still learning. it is sadly not the first time someone has died from a shooting during filming. in 1993, the star of the crow, brandon lee, was fatally shot by a gun which everyone thought was only loaded with blank rounds. actor rhys muldoon says he has recently been working on a movie with a large degree of gunfire. the producers actually held a very clearly important meeting and decided to do away with blanks altogether, and use basic special effects and cgi, because, in this day and age, you can truly can get those things of a gun firing without losing anything. alec baldwin, who is also a producer on the film, has spoken to detectives about what happened. meanwhile, the film world is mourning the loss of halyna hutchins and waiting to see what lessons may have to be learned from her tragic death. lizo mzimba, bbc news. our correspondent peter bowes, who�*s in los angeles, told me what the reaction has been like. there has been a tremendous amount of reaction and you can imagine this has hit hollywood really hard. thankfully incidents like this on movie sets are extremely rare. although there have been a few in the past and there are very stringent measures on movie sets, television sets as well, for safety, and especially relating to the use of guns, and the use of live ammunition is banned on movie sets. generally these are guns that are essentially blanks. they have the barrel but there is no bullet inside that case to be fired, so there is an investigation going on to find out exactly what went wrong with that particular gun and how something like this could have happened. people are frankly baffled as to how it could have happened. a cinematographer and director. it is not clear whether this was a filming or rehearsal situation so still lots of questions to be answered. we are hearing a little bit more from film production behind this movie saying the entire cast and crew has been absolutely devastated by today�*s tragedy. the tragedy happened 24 hours ago. they say we send our deepest condolences to the family and loved ones and say they are providing counselling services to everyone connected with the film as they try to process this awful event and production has been suspended indefinitely. buckingham palace says the queen is in good spirits and back at windsor castle after spending wednesday night in hospital. she was taken in for tests, after being forced to cancel a trip to northern ireland. her doctors had told her to rest, following a busy round of public engagements. here�*s our royal correspondent, nicholas witchell. windsor, two days ago, early afternoon, a convoy of royal vehicles were seen heading in the direction of london. was this the convoy taking the queen to hospital? at around the same time, at windsor castle itself, a very small royal standard was seen to be flying, its presence supporting the palace�*s claim that the queen was resting at the castle. in fact, the queen was here, at the private king edward vi! hospital in central london. the palace clearly hoped her visit would go unnoticed. it did, until last night, when the sun led with the story that she had spent the night in hospital. that prompted a short statement from the palace. buckingham palace insists that, like any citizen, the queen is entitled to privacy over medical issues. the palace will therefore say nothing about the nature of the investigations ordered by her doctors. the one thing we can say is that she seemed completely well on tuesday night when she hosted a reception for global business leaders and others at windsor castle. according to people who saw her, she was relaxed and on good form. that was just the latest in a busy few weeks for her, which had included a visit to cardiff for the opening of the welsh parliament on 14th october, her attendance two days earlier at a service at westminster abbey to mark the centenary of the royal british legion, quite apart from the daily and largely unseen work of the monarch, with audiences and boxes of paperwork. of course, it is good morning, isn�*t it, to you...? according to the palace, the queen resumed that paperwork last night a few hours after returning from hospital. she is, says the palace, continuing with light duties and remains determined to attend the cop26 summit in glasgow at the end of the month. nicholas witchell, bbc news. the prime minister has sent his best wishes to the queen — he said he understood that the queen was now back at her desk. our royal correspondent sarah campbell said there�*s still much we don�*t know about the situation. the royal standard is flying high above windsor castle, so we assume that the queen is in residence and certainly the indication from the palace is that she remains in good spirits. yesterday we were told she came back from that trip to hospital and she was at her desk at work, albeit undertaking light duties. what could that mean? well, daily duties of the monarch include of course looking through the government papers, the red boxes, so we assume she would be undertaking those sort of duties. other than releasing information about those preliminary investigations, those tests that she was taken to hospitalfor, the palace have given no further medical detail as to what those tests are for and regarding the results, whether she might have to go back to hospital depending on the results of those tests. we have no indication from the palace whether we will be informed about that. it is of course a tricky balance for the palace trying to keep the public informed about their head of state while of course respecting her right to privacy on medical matters. she may be one of the most famous — if not the most famous — woman in the world but she still has a right to privacy on private medical matters such as this. she is 95 years old and inevitably her health is going to be of increasing concern going forward. we are told her medical team are taking a cautious approach. the next time we expect to see her in person will be at the cop26 summit in roughly ten days�* time. the bbc understands that the home secretary has agreed to change the law to allow victims of domestic abuse more time to report to police. priti patel has agreed to extend a current time limit from six months to up to two years in cases of alleged common assault involving domestic abuse. our political correspondent alex forsyth told me more. it is a change in the law. as things stand when there is an alleged common assault that involves domestic abuse, any common assault, there are only six months from that incident allegedly taking place for police to charge someone. campaigners say when it comes to cases of domestic abuse that is not long enough because it can take a long time for victims to be able to come forward and these investigations can be complicated so there has been a push for that time limit specifically in alleged common assaults involving domestic abuse to be expanded. it is my understanding the home secretary priti patel has agreed to do that to allow up to two years rather than six months which gives victims of domestic abuse longer to report back to police and i understand there will be a renewed push to ensure that police and prosecutors are alive to coercive behaviour which can often go along with cases of domestic abuse. it is my understanding there will be a change put down to a bill currently making its way through parliament, the police crime and sentencing bill, and that will enact this change in the law. as you might expect initial conversations i have been having with campaigners they say if the government goes ahead with this that would be very welcome news indeed. five police officers from four forces are facing disciplinary action over messages shared on social media about sarah everard�*s killer. former met police officer wayne couzens is serving a whole—life sentence after kidnapping, raping and murdering ms everard earlier this year. the independent office for police conduct says officers from the metropolitan police, as well as from sussex, dorset and avon and somerset forces, will be subject to misconduct proceedings. the care regulator for england is warning that the sector faces a "tsunami of unmet need" this winter, unless staffing shortages are tackled. the care quality commission has called for immediate measures to fill job vacancies. the government says it�*s providing £162 million to boost recruitment. alison holt reports. the unmet need which today�*s report warns is already a reality for the cooks. melvin has a rare brain condition and, unable to get any support, dorothy is caring on her own. he can�*t get out of a chair on his own. he can�*t mobilise on his own. he can�*t go up and down the stairs on his own. he can�*t wash, dress, shower. take yourtime... it�*s just full—on, 24/7 caring. melvin was sent home by the nhs injune. for a short time, care workers came in, then they said they didn�*t have enough staff to continue. that was 12 weeks ago. according to the charity carers uk, many family carers are being pushed to the edge, like dorothy. i�*m on my knees. i�*m on my knees with exhaustion. the strain of having to do it all on our own. we�*re left here with nobody. there�*s no care package, no accessibility to services. we feel completely and utterly isolated. and scared. today�*s report from the regulator, the care quality commission, warns of the serious impact staffing shortages are having across the health and care system in england. job vacancies in care homes have risen from 6% to 10% in five months. and nursing homes are deregistering because they can�*t get nurses. it concludes urgent action is needed. we�*re calling for, in our report, increased funding to stabilise the adult social care workforce. and that benefits everybody, it has a positive ripple effect right across health and social care. and without that stability, without that stable, adult social care workforce, there�*s the real risk of a tsunami of unmet need causing instability right across the system. the government has said it is putting £162 million into boosting the recruitment and retention of care staff and that it appreciates their dedication and tireless work. for many years, this has been a workforce that is under incredible pressure. but, of course, that is intensified at this time, particularly as we have 1.1 million vacancies, there is a lot of competition for labour, so it is a worry, and that�*s why we�*ve announced this £162.5 million today, which is there to effectively retain and to build extra capacity, and also to bring in thousands of new people. whilst welcoming the money, councils and care organisations say it won�*t be enough. alison holt. the green party is calling for every household to be given £320 to help pay for high energy bills. the policy was unveiled as the party�*s annual conference gets underway in birmingham. our political correspondent ione wells watched the green party leaders�* speech to conference. one message that really came across from the co—leaders was how much of a key moment this is for the green party who have a record number of councillors in england and wales. their sister party is in government in scotland and of course the government is gearing up to host cop26. they also touched on points like the rising cost of living and the energy crisis we are seeing at the moment with gas prices higher than they have been and people seeing rising energy bills which has got all parties talking about the need to move away from a reliance on fossil fuels and the big policy announced today was that the green party would like to give every household £320 to cope with these additional bills which they say would be paid for by a one—off tax on landlords to raise £9 billion. they have laid out what their vision is. the challenge for the green party is getting seats on the table in positions of power. both leaders emphasising the want to be seen notjust as a pressure group but a serious electoral party and win more seats also in the houses of parliament as well. they face a couple of challenges. one of the key ones being the fact that at the moment we are seeing some of the more radical green groups like extinction rebellion dominate the headlines when it comes to the green agenda at the moment and those groups both the co—leaders have actively distanced themselves from as part of their election campaign as well. secondly we are seeing all major political parties trumpet their green policies with the uk conservative government just this week announcing their net zero strategy so with all parties talking about this, and this of course being the green party�*s usp, they are having to fight a little bit harderfor that acknowledgement and for those seats around the tables in the halls of power. to the day with plenty of sunshine around but the cloud has tended to build across central and southern parts of the country with the best of the sunshine across scotland and the northern isles. this evening many places will be dry. it will be quite chilly as well and the reason for this is the high pressure. we had a strong breeze particularly in the north—west but the winds will get lighter through this evening and overnight. a few showers still continuing in western england and wales but a lot of dry clear weather for central and eastern parts of england and scotland so a touch of frost and it will turn chilly. out with the pace of the cloud will be building up ahead of the snowy weather front. temperatures will not be as low. first saturday we start to import mild south—westerly ones. rain still be pushing eastwards through the course of saturday and into sunday. and extent of everything. fairly windy, some sunshine, outbreaks of rain but it will be turning milder. yeah hello, this is bbc news. the headlines: scientists advising the government say stricter covid measures

fifth match of the test series between england and india�*s men, which was controversially postponed last month, has been re—scheduled and will be played from july 1st at edgbaston next summer. india led the series 2—1 when the game was called off — saying that they had been unable to field a team due to fears of further coronavirus cases inside their camp. the fixture can�*t be played at the original venue, old trafford, because of other events scheduled to take place. ireland have lost their chance to get through to the next round of cricket�*s t20 world cup after a heavy defeat to namibia, who won the last group match by eight wickets. ireland had started well, but lost three wickets in quick succession, finishing onjust 125 for 8. so it was an easy run chase for namibia. they ended with a great partnership between captain gerhard erasmas — who brought up his half century — and david wiese with the final boundary to win it. so it�*s namibia who are into the super 12 stage, which starts tomorrow. newcastle�*s interim manager graemejones has said he was upset when he found out steve bruce was departing the club. jones was speaking to the media for the first time in his

in and around that in football because that means it hasn�*t worked but you have got to move on in football because if you miss a day, you miss a training session, and you are not as prepared for tomorrow�*s game as you could be. speaking of managers under pressure, ole gunnar solskjaer has been talking to the media ahead of manchester united�*s huge match against liverpool on sunday. despite united�*s dramatic comeback in europe midweek, solskjaer has come under criticism for their performance in the league. he says, to be a manager, you need great mental strength. performances sometimes, they are not really bad, they are really good, but other people decide the narrative on what people like to think about you. i enjoy managing and i enjoy this life and i don�*t think any of us would be in this occupation if we didn�*t believe in ourselves. i have a strong belief in what we are doing. scotland women are looking to make it three wins from three against hungary in their world cup qualifier at hampden this evening. a third win in a row could put them six points clear of their nearest competitors ukraine, athough spain still currently top the group. scotland played in front of a crowd of 5,000 last month at hampden. meanwhile, wales�* women are in slovenia for their match later in the world cup qualifiers. they began their campaign with wins over kazakhstan and estonia last month, putting them level with france at the top of their group — they also have six points from their two games so far. finally, this week�*s bbc sports desk podcast looks at the importance of black history month in sport. it includes a wide ranging interview with rugby world cup winning captain siya kolisi. among the topics is the prevalence of abuse on social media aimed at sports people. kolisi recounted his own experiences of hatred as a black man, married to a white woman in south africa. it�*s horrible. honestly... people call you all kind of things and sometimes i wonder if they think we don�*t have feelings, or this stuff doesn�*t matter to us, because every now and then, it makes me not read, i don�*t even read the good parts which is sad because there are always those people, they go so far beyond. you should be getting that kind of hate like that. you can get more on the website. that�*s all the sport for now. now back to one of our main stories this afternoon — the actor alec baldwin has been questioned by police after a gun he fired as a prop on set killed the cinematographer and wounded the director of his latest film. the weapon was supposed to fire blanks. jim dowdall, a film stunt coordinator and former film armourer, says the type of gun used will have an impact on whether it could have fired live ammunition. for instance, if you have a revolver on a set there is no adaptation that is need ? needed to make it safe firing blanks, and so will a shot gun, it is only an automatic weapon which has got to be adapted and would not be able to usually fire live ammunition and or blanks but if it is a revolver and we are talking about a period piece, so for example, a colt revolver or a shot gun, you could fire blanks or live ammunition with the same weapon with no adaptation. haste ammunition with the same weapon with no adaptation-— no adaptation. we don't know enough about what happened _ no adaptation. we don't know enough about what happened in _ no adaptation. we don't know enough about what happened in this - about what happened in this particular situation but what about the safety procedures that have to be respected in the film industry when there is a fire arm onset? firstly everybody has to be made aware of the fact that there is a live fire arm onset and everybody would have had a script to know that thatis would have had a script to know that that is expected that particular sequence. ? in that particular sequence. ? in that particular sequence. as an example, i would show the actor concerned how to use the firearm and let him have some tests with it to make sure he is happy as to how it works and loads. long before we actually do the same. so nothing is happening and nobody will be surprised. if there�*s anything being fired near a camera we put shields up in front of the camera and in of any of the crew with stuff which is optically correct so you can shoot through it but it, you could hit it with a sledgehammer but you would never get through it, so that gives an element of protection. any actors that have been shot at with a blank cartridges have to be stood in a certain position orfar enough have to be stood in a certain position or far enough back so they would not feel any blast from that blank cartridge. occasionally, if it has got to be very close up to the actor, there are guns which are adapted which will function in every way but they won�*t actually have a blast which comes out of the muzzle but they will actually throw an empty cartridge out of the site if it is an automatic, for instance, but it is perfectly safe and you could put that up to your head and there would be no problem ? out of there would be no problem ? out of the side. but there�*s an assumption sometimes that a blank is totally and utterly safe which it isn�*t. for instance, on one film, every morning, with a lot of extras who came to berlin, they did not speak very good english, they were russian, i would demonstrate, putting a melon on top of the post and then using a blank cartridge and it would completely vaporise the melon and something like that would be a demonstration. somebody like alec baldwin who would be used to firing arms on sets, and that, i think i would have thought the proper guys who were in charge of that, it is extraordinary that two people, one killed and one injured, and he might have been using something like a double—barrelled shotgun where he had to barrels. i don�*t know but at the moment i would not speculate. pare don't know but at the moment i would rtot speculate-— not speculate. are the measures le . all not speculate. are the measures legally obligatory _ not speculate. are the measures legally obligatory for _ not speculate.

system to cover this. in this country we have the health and safety executive which put down very tight margins for doing anything like this, stunt work and so on, and we are very much controlled by them and there is usually a health and safety person onset. but in mexico, even new mexico, i believe that the laws would not be as tight down there, but again this is speculative. certainly, in the old days, a lot of people used to go down to that part of the world to make westerns where they did not have the same regulations regarding the treatment of animals, horses and so on, things which in california you would never be able to do, like trip horses up, and even that is easing off, but i think you would find that there might not necessarily be the same controls in mexico that there might be further up in the states. jim dowden there. the house of lords is debating draft legislation on assisted dying. the proposed law would give adults in england and wales, who are terminally ill, the right to end their life, if doctors think they only have six months or less to live. campaigners say a change in the law would give those at the end of their lives greater control over how and when they die. but opponents fear it could leave vulnerable people feeling pressure to end their life. graham satchell reports. tina humphrey became a household name in 2012. her routines with her rescue dog chandi on britain�*s got talent stole the hearts of the public. they went all the way to that year�*s final. she was amazing. an amazing woman. she was incredibly intelligent, determined, wonderful person. yes, just an incredible woman. steve and tina met in 2015. it was love at first sight. just a week before their wedding, tina was diagnosed with an aggressive form of skin cancer. her father and her mother had both died of cancer, and she had seen what happens at the end of it and she was determined that wasn�*t going to happen to her. when the time eventually came, tina wanted to be able to say goodbye properly. she wanted to be fully aware and in control at the end. it was exactly a textbook thing of what she had wanted to avoid. because that�*s what she�*d seen her parents go through and she wanted to avoid that. she didn�*t want to shorten her life. she wanted to shorten her death. that was the important thing, and she wanted it to be peaceful and calm. and it turned out a nightmare for her and for me. the proposed new law being discussed today is short, with few details, but it does say assisted dying would only be an option for someone who was terminally ill, mentally competent and in their final months of life. two independent doctors and a high courtjudge would have to assess each request. religious leaders and other critics of the bill are worried. the archbishop of canterbury, for example, says rather than accepting what he calls assisted suicide, we should aim to live in a society that assists people to live. there�*s no difference in us between compassion, it is our concern about the effectiveness of the safeguards, and the care for the vulnerable, and the fact that not all families are as loving and caring as tina�*s husband, who is obviously an extraordinary man, and a wonderful man. not all families are like that. this is grace, another rescue dog trained by tina. having grace has helped steve cope with the loss of his wife. he now wants other people in tina�*s position to be able to die with dignity. graham satchell, bbc news. a two minute silence has been held in leigh on sea in essex, close to where the conservative mp, sir david amess was stabbed to death last friday. from today, mps are able to have trained security guards on hand when they hold surgeries with the public in their consitutuencies. the offer of extra protection has been made by the commons speaker sir lindsay hoyle and the home secretary priti patel. meanwhile, ali harbi ali, who is 25, has been charged with his murder and has appeared at the old bailey and will face trial in march next year. our correspondent lebo diseko gave us this update from leigh—on—sea. i�*m standing outside the church where sir david was holding that surgery last week when he was stabbed and killed, and that two—minute silence was just a short walk from where i am now, shopkeepers and community members coming together to remember him and really give their memories of the mp they knew and loved. speaking to people afterwards, what they said to me was that this is personal. one woman said to me it was like a member of herfamily had died. she described to me how, when her son passed away, it was sir david that ensured his body was brought back from greece where he had been and really made sure herfamily was looked after. the local catholic priest saying sir david would have been in and out all of these businesses and talking to people, having lunch with people, laughing with them. he said you cannot think of sir david without remembering that smile, he told me it was easy to make a friend of sir david. the tributes are expected to continue throughout the day, we expect another two—minute silence to be held outside his constituency office later today. now to the story we have been covering throughout the day. the inadvertent shooting of a cinematographer in the state of new mexico during filming. the actor one has been communicating on twitter. more than 1,000 people are dying from covid—19 every day in russia, a figure that makes it the worst—affected in europe. the scale of new infections and deaths has alarmed authorities so much that all workplaces are being shut down for a week from the start of november. many russians are sceptical of the vaccine the country produced, leaving them unprotected. richard galpin has visited one hospital in russia�*s north—west, and sent this report. another frantic day in hospital number one, here in vologda. the reality of the covid epidemic laid bare. wards in this hospitalfilled with patients on oxygen to try to keep them alive. the vast majority admitted to hospital because they had not taken the virus seriously. there are 800 beds in this hospital, and 750 of them are taken, and the vast majority of people who have come here have not been vaccinated. only a quarter of the population in vologda has had the vaccine, a major concern for doctors here. translation: i am very worried about this. - the more unvaccinated people there are, the more patients we have. all the capacity we have in our hospital is dependent on the people being vaccinated. despite all this, the vaccination centre i visited here was quiet. just a few people coming through for the jab, which would save lives. the governor of the region, oleg kuvshinnikov, has been trying to encourage more people to get vaccinated. but many remain wary of the vaccine. like yelena, who is a sceptic. translation: we live in a small town, and what i see around me| contradicts official statistics. i am told there are no side—effects of the vaccine but i see the opposite. in the vologda cemetery, the grave—diggers are in high demand. the number of burials has doubled from 50 a week, to 100. and amongst those who have been dying here from covid, many will have lost their lives because they believed the vaccine was the danger to them, not the virus, which has killed almost 250,000 people across the country. richard galpin, bbc news, vologda. the headlines on bbc news... the government�*s scientific advisory group is urging ministers to be ready to rapidly deploy stricter coronavirus restrictions in england — but the prime minister says they�*re not needed. a cinematographer has died after being shot by a prop gun fired by actor alec baldwin. the director of the star�*s new film was also seriously injured. tributes are being paid to halyna hutchins, who was 42. the queen is back at windsor castle after spending a night in a london hospital. buckingham palace says she underwent preliminary medical checks but is in good spirits. the palace of westminster is falling apart. a recent survey of parliament has found thousands of problems, from cracks in walls and ceilings, to flooding, warped windows and a network of ageing cables. something needs to be done — but the work could cost many billions of pounds, and mps are reluctant to sign if off. peter saull has been to see how bad the situation is. for centuries, it has been a proud symbol of our democracy, but parliament seems rather shy these days, hiding behind a web of scaffolding. inside, they have been assessing the extent of the damage. the lords looks as grand as ever. beneath it in the basement, though, there are scenes like this. more than 50 specialists have spent a combined total of more than 4,500 hours investigating the building, during recess periods. more than 2,000 rooms and spaces were examined, with experts recording thousands of issues with stonework, water damage and outdated electrical systems. it�*s an absolutely fascinating building, but there are problems there. there are water leaks, there are issues with the sewage, there are issues with the electrics. the team who run the building on a day—to—day basis, it is a safe building. but you need to do a project on this scale to really preserve the building for generations to come. the restoration of this building is one of the longest—running sagas in british politics. it has been three and a half years since mps voted to refurbish it, but it is still not clear how long it will take, where the mps and peers will go in the meantime, and how many billions of pounds it will cost. it is going to be an expensive project, and that is why it mustn't be any more expensive than it has to be _ i think the country at large is very proud of the palace of westminster. it is an international symbol, but it is also a statement, isn't it, of our belief in our democracy? that our democracy is something that it is worth being bold about and saying to the world it is something that is important, is great and indeed is beautiful. and i think our building does that. but we have a responsibility to taxpayers to keep the costs under control. more surveys will take place over the winter and into next year. some progress has already been made. the elizabeth tower, home to big ben, has been gradually coming out of its shell. but returning the whole palace of westminster to its former glories will be a long, painstaking task. peter saull, bbc news. staying with crumbling infrastructure... when a sinkhole appeared on a residential street in cheshire last year, the local community were told it would be fixed within days. but, 18 months later, they�*re still waiting. as a way of catching the council�*s attention — and expressing their frustration, they�*ve now written a song about the situation, which has become an unlikely youtube hit. ian haslam has the story. it is one of the more unusual protest tunes but the sinkhole song is drawing attention to a big problem. # i�*m feeling ecstatic i�*m stopping the traffic # causing mayhem, pain and strife # i�*m a hole, a sinkhole # a stinking hole...# with the help of a few friends, we�*ve created a genre of music we like to call sinkhole. i think the fact that oliver�*s in this, a lot of people have been drawn to it with his presence alone. he�*s changed, i�*ll be honest with you. i think he�*s found fame intoxicating. # they turned up with a digger which only made me bigger... he�*s roughly the same age as the sinkhole. so they�*ve grown—up together, oliver and the sinkhole. grown—up together, yes. he�*s never known a life without a sinkhole. it�*s amazing what you get used to, isn�*t it? # sinkhole # a stinking hole # stinky sinkhole... luke wrote the song with music teacher and frustrated resident, ali. that song is a catchy little number, isn�*t it? it gets right in your ear, doesn�*t it? it's a right ear worm. you can't get rid of it, can you? could give adele a run for her money. maybe it'll be number one. i doubt it, though. it�*s definitely a niche subject, isn�*t it? adele is not singing about sinkholes, and neither is anybody else right now, apart from yourselves. yeah. # i haven�*t always been mean # i started life as a street # then sank the road and broke a sewage pipe...# one of the residents has told me that nature has reclaimed this road and it�*s tough to argue with that. look at the state of this! there are all kinds of plant life here. one of the bushes is even growing tomatoes. i would not want to eat those! even worse than that, it�*s become a home for rats. it�*s literally a rat sanctuary right now. cheshire east council says this is an extremely complex piece of work and that it�*s continuing to work hard on how to address the problems. we can�*t use this drive. and theyjust don�*t care. i've asked about a rebate on council tax but, no. a main gas main runs up that side of it, right up to the top of the street. if that went, everything within a quarter of a mile would go. # the council ignore it, the rats adore it # tomatoes grew in me last year...# the more people that view, the better it is. we show the local council that, hey, it's notjust people on this street suffering with it, it's the wider community. which is why they are continuing to sing about it... # i�*m a hole, hole, stinking hole # a stinky sinkhole # i�*m a hole # i�*m a sinkhole, i�*m a hole...# i didn�*t see the swaying i was looking for from the crowd behind but your performance was great. thank you. the residents are planning a celebration when the hole is finally fixed. ian haslam, bbc news. it might go to number one, you never know. now it�*s time for a look at the weather. good afternoon. one of those mixed days. we started off quite chilly with a bit of sunshine but then the cloud came. best of the sunshine has been across scotland and the northern isles. through the evening we will hold onto a few showers but many places will be dry with clear spells because we have a ridge of high pressure building in from the south—west. isobars quite close together in many northern and eastern areas so quite a breezy day for many. still quite windy across the far north—east corner where we have the best of the evening sunshine but further south the winds will turn out. highs of 13—14 at best. still great single figures for the north of scotland. the odd shower way for western england and wales but many places will be dry with lighter winds and it will be pretty cold, low single digits for many and even down to freezing and a touch of frost. the lighter colours further west, we have a change of air mass, with the frontal system, with wet and windy weather, much warmer and more south—westerly winds coming from the tropics, so it is turning mild for all areas through this weekend. we start off largely dry, quite chilly for eastern areas, sunshine iran, quite a bit of cloud are developing through the day. ? sunshine around. a few splashes of rain may be for western parts of england and wales. drive further south where we have the lighter winds and it will be quite gusty and windy further north and west. those are the main gusts and it could be even higher. it could be 15 in southern areas, even though teens in northern scotland. the weather front moves further east on sunday and showery bursts of rain in the centre of the country. some sunshine in the east and behind the weather front a scattering of blustery, occasionally heavy showers for scotland and northern ireland. temperatures creep up northern ireland. temperatures creep up a bit more in the sunniest spots on sunday. next week we maintain the westerly wind so it remains mild and by the time we reach tuesday and wednesday we could be looking at top temperatures of around 17, may be 19 in southern and eastern areas. this is bbc news. i�*m martine croxall. the headlines — scientists advising the government say stricter covid measures should be made ready for "rapid deployment", but the prime minister insists plan b for england isn�*t needed yet. we keep all measures under constant review. we�*ll do whatever we have to do to protect the public, but the numbers that we�*re seeing at the moment are fully in line with what we expected. tributes are being paid to cinematographer halyna hutchins, who�*s died after actor alec baldwin fired a prop gun on the set of his latest film. the film�*s director was also seriously injured. she had such a strong vibe, such a sense of a commitment to art and the integrity of wanting to make cinema. and in the last few minutes, alec baldwin has tweeted,
