after 26 hours, the jury decided kyle rittenhouse's fate. we, thejury, find the defendant, kyle h rittenhouse, not guilty. the 12 men and women of thejury accepted the teenager's claim he killed out of fear for his safety. somehow, some way, those 12 jurors found that he was innocent. yelling applause woo! 0utside court, the political divisions this case has caused were clear. you attack me, i have the right to defend myself! that's what kyle was on trial for and that's what kyle is now found acquitted of, 0k? so you're telling me if two guys come up to you and accost you, you can't defend yourself? that's what was on trial today! there is no way in a law — in a land of law where a person can shoot three people, kill two of them, and be acquitted. there'sjust no way. the shooting happened against the backdrop of nationwide protests over racism and police brutality following the murder of george floyd. in kenosha, another black man, named jacob blake, had been shot by police seven times and on the third night of riots, kyle rittenhouse entered the city. he said he came to provide security. in a series of confrontations, he shot dead joseph rosenbaum, who had chased after him into this car park. he then killed another man who ran after rittenhouse, thinking he was an active shooter. a third man survived. police later arrested the teenager and charged him with murder. people... sobs. at his trial, there were tears, challenges... and a controversial offence by his team in regards to the shooting of jacob lake. —— blake. other people in this community have shot somebody seven times and it's been found to be ok, and my client did it four times in three—quarters of a second to protect his life from mr rosenbaum. i'm sorry, but that's what happened. this not guilty verdict is seen as a referendum on an issue that polarises americans beyond kenosha, and that is the issue of gun ownership. for many conservative groups, kyle rittenhouse is now seen as a hero. but for many liberal groups, he is the face of a gun culture out of control and they're worried, by being cleared of the charges, what it might mean now for future protests. can americans turn up with a gun but not face any consequences? nomia iqbal, bbc news, kenosha. colin pitchfork, the man who killed two teenagers in the 1980s, is back in prison, less than two months after being released. it's understood he breached the terms of his licence but did not commit any further offences. he served 33 years for killing 15—year—olds lynda mann and dawn ashworth in leicestershire. single—use plastic plates, cutlery and polystyrene cups could all be banned in england. 4.25 billion items of throwaway cutlery, most of which are plastic, are used in england per year, but only 10% are recycled. a public consultation on the issue begins today. all materials have an environmental impact, whether they be wood, paper, glass, et cetera, and as we have just heard from the climate change summit, it is important we remember that the goods that we consume, the clothes we wear and the food we buy contribute nearly half of all global emissions. almost £40 million has been raised by the bbc children in need appeal. the show was jam—packed with the usual comedy sketches and star—studded performances, as our entertainment correspondent colin paterson reports. despite whatever is going on, that appeal attracts people's generosity, they are amazingly generous. for the first time in its 41 year history, children in need took place in the north at media city in salford and some familiar faces were happy to welcome pudsey. i will]! happy to welcome pudsey. i will alwa s happy to welcome pudsey. i will always love _ happy to welcome pudsey. i will always love you _ happy to welcome pudsey. i will always love you for _ happy to welcome pudsey. i will always love you for what - happy to welcome pudsey. i will always love you for what it's - happy to welcome pudsey. iw ii always love you for what it's worth. ed sheeran kick—started proceedings that it was not the most talked about musical performance of the evening. that belonged to the old—style poppet ensemble, covering starship classic. we old-style poppet ensemble, covering starship classic.— starship classic. we can build this dream together. _ starship classic. we can build this dream together. standing - starship classic. we can build this dream together. standing strong | dream together. standing strong forever. nothing's gonna stop us now. �* . forever. nothing's gonna stop us now. ~ ., ,, . ., , forever. nothing's gonna stop us now. ~ ., ,, .., ,., forever. nothing's gonna stop us now. and in a special news and sport eisode of now. and in a special news and sport episode of i — now. and in a special news and sport episode of i can _ now. and in a special news and sport episode of i can see _ now. and in a special news and sport episode of i can see your _ now. and in a special news and sport episode of i can see your voice, - now. and in a special news and sport episode of i can see your voice, the i episode of i can see your voice, the challenge was to work out if this was mike bushell�*s real singing voice. was mike bushell's real singing voice. _ was mike bushell's real singing voice._ turns l was mike bushell's real singing l voice._ turns out was mike bushell's real singing - voice._ turns out it voice. oooh. oh, baby. turns out it was not. voice. oooh. oh, baby. turns out it was not- i— voice. oooh. oh, baby. turns out it was not- i just _ voice. oooh. oh, baby. turns out it was not. i just want _ voice. oooh. oh, baby. turns out it was not. i just want you _ voice. oooh. oh, baby. turns out it was not. i just want you to - voice. oooh. oh, baby. turns out it was not. i just want you to dance i was not. i 'ust want you to dance with me was not. ijust want you to dance with me tonight. _ was not. ijust want you to dance with me tonight. hi! _ was not. ijust want you to dance with me tonight. hi! hi! - was not. ijust want you to dance with me tonight. hi! hi! east - was not. ijust want you to dancej with me tonight. hi! hi! east end was not. i just want you to dance i with me tonight. hi! hi! east end is met coronation street on first dates — met coronation street on first dates. ., , ., dates. you ever been married?

"pm demands migrant fix" is the lead headline in the times. the paper reports that borisjohnson is "exasperated" by his government's failure to stem the number of migrants crossing the channel, prompting him to order a cross—whitehall review. the guardian has spoken to lord bhikhu parekh, who wrote a key report on the future of multi—ethnic britain more than 20 years ago, about the racism scandal engulfing cricket. he says it's the result of successive governments failing to embrace multiculturalism. the daily mirror leads with double child killer colin pitchfork being recalled to prison. and social media has been reacting to the acquittal of kyle rittenhouse, the teenage vigilante who stood trial for murder after shooting dead two people in kenosha, wisconsin. the kenosha news was clearly on standby for violence in the wake of the verdict, but the paper tweeted that it was all quiet at 9pm. let's look inside, heading towards christmas of course. share let's look inside,

yesterday in aberdeen temperatures were up at 17 celsius. take a look at the change in temperatures, though. by the time we get to the middle part of the week we will see temperatures in aberdeen about four celsius, so you will really notice the change in the feel to the weather, a drop of 13 degrees in less than a week. high pressure still not far away to the south but through the weekend this weather front will push its way south through today and that will open the doors for these cold northerly winds. the change in rare mass, the wind from the north during the day, and that will set us up for a much colder week ahead —— changing in hermas. enjoy the weather where you can, a little bit of sunshine breaking through at times when northern england, into wales. this weather front pushing out of scotland and northern ireland will bring some drizzly rain to northern england and north wales later in the day. that will be followed in the north by sunshine and scattered showers, looking at single figures this afternoon. further south, about ten to 13 degrees across southern parts of england and wales. into the evening and overnight, as the cloud clears away towards the south, we have the cold air moving in. we are likely to see a touch of frost, particularly in the north tonight. quite a chilly breeze coming into parts of northern scotland, down the east coast of england as well thing tomorrow, bringing us a few showers. some of the showers could be heavy, some hail and wintering us over the higher ground of scotland and heavy rain showers down the east coast of england as well. generally fewer showers further west but one or two close to irish sea coasts through the day. top temperature is about seven to 11 degrees but it will feel a touch colder than that in the east where you are exposed to the cold northerly wind. we have high pressure that will dominate our weather as we head on through next week. generally quite cold air with us but there will be something a little less cold for a time on monday into tuesday, just moving in from the north, and this weather front bringing more cloud to scotland and northern ireland by the time we get to monday. england and wales sticking with the sunshine but quite a chilly breeze coming from the north—east to east anglia. temperatures for some of us getting into double figures on monday, hires of about seven to 11 degrees, but do expect some morning frosts to return as we head through the course of next week. there could be some mistiness through the mornings as well. here is the outlook into next week, a little bit less cold for a time on monday and tuesday but by the end of the week we are all looking at those temperatures in mid single figures. certainly quite a wintry change coming over the next few days. let's find out what is on at the cinema. it's time for the film review, with mark kermode and victoria derbyshire. welcome to the film review on bbc news, to take us through this week �*s cinema releases is, as always, mark kermode. where are we starting this week, mark?— this week, mark? interestingly this week we have _ this week, mark? interestingly this week we have ghostbusters: i week we have ghostbusters: afterlife, which is a new ghostbusters film, we have petite maman, the new one by celine sciamma, and we have king richard, who is the father of venus and serena williams. ghostbusters, the sequel. it's not called that. no, ghostbusters afterlife. we've already had the sequel and we had the reboot. this is directed byjason reitman, whose father ivan reitman directed the original. the story is a single mum and her two kids are evicted from their home and they go out to an old farmhouse owned by her deceased father. paul rudd is out there. he's playing a seismologist teacher, who is out there because he is interested in the fact that there were lots of earthquakes although there were no fault lines. mckenna grace and finn wolfhard are the kids, who uncover a bunch of ghostbusting equipment which they fire up. here is a clip. fire it up. i've always wanted to do this. yes! uh...we should probably get out of here. you're an adult. yeah, and i'm liable. you know what this means, right? your grandfather was a ghostbuster. i'm quite glad that wait was worth it. was it — was it? was to me. two questions. you saw the original ghostbusters. did you love it? idid. have you seen it recently? it's not as good as you remember. is it not. jason reitman says this is a family affair, a story about family. he also said this is a film that gives ghostbusters back to the fans, which seems to be suggesting that after the 2016 female—led ghostbusters, which many of the fans were up in arms about — how dare they they have taken the thing i love and changed it in a way, to now we get this. this is basically a bit stranger things. for most of the movie the first half of it, nothing happens. the second half of the film everything happens, and everything that happens is "remember that bit from ghostbusters that you liked? here it is. remember that other bit from ghostbusters that you liked? well, here it is again. you remember that sort of riffy thing that you liked? here it is, but slightly different." my problem is this. firstly, at least the 2016 ghostbusters, i think, tried to do something new. some people did not like it, i actually thought it was fine, but at least it attempted to do something new. what this does is go, we all love ghostbusters. ghostbusters is to be revered. fine, it had its moments. but watching a movie thatjust plods through all the old tropes by going over — but this time we've got a connection to stranger things and this time it's a new generation, and this time it's about family. is it, or is it really that ghostbusters has run its course? and it's probably time to just go, ok, i think we've had enough of this now. the thing that troubles me about this is it's so ordinary. and you think of it as a big franchise with huge built—in audience, and what do you do with it? you just go, there. as i said, it's for the fans. well, the fans kind of deserve it in that case. ok, let's leave that and talk about petite maman. this is a new film from celia sciamma. i think it's already one of my favourite films of the year. if not, it is in my top three at the end of the year. a young girl, nelly, has lost her grandmother. and she goes with her mother to her grandmother's house to clean it out, the mother can't deal with the grief. nelly goes out into the woods and finds a heart to her about and find another young girl who shares the name of her mother, and seems to share many of the experiences that she knows her mother had. so on the one hand it's a fairy tale. 0n the other hand it's a ghost story. maybe a time travelling story. maybe it's back to the future without the delorean. it's beautiful — it's so natural and so well observed. it's about bridging the intergenerational gap, about parents and children and grandmothers and that. and it's really profound. but it's a u—certificate film. anyone can see this film. it's 72 minutes long. it is as close to a perfect film as i can remember seeing. it is absolutelyjust drop—dead astonishing, and i would encourage everyone to go and see it. if you say it's a children's film, that kind of does it an injustice. it is a children's film for children of all ages. parents will see one thing in it, children will see another thing. it is yet further evidence that celine sciamma really is amazing. just does not put a foot wrong. king richard is starring will smith, and this is all about richard williams, who is the father of venus and serena williams, who has been portrayed in the media as on one hand charismatic, inspirational, extraordinaryjob as a trainer, and on the other hand overbearing, self—serving. what the film does is spread by will smith — generally likeable, irascible, and certainly difficult to get on with, but attempting to do something under very difficult circumstances which not everyone approves of. here's a clip. what's going on? everybody 0k? they got a call, said _ there was trouble in the house. ok, you all need to look around? it's a little wet for practice, don't you think? don't the girls have schoolwork to do? now i don't even mind you saying we're hard on these kids. - you know why? because we are. that's ourjob — to keep them off the streets. i so the interesting thing about this is i think will smith is really good at playing this central role. and although it's serena and venus williams who gets executive producer credit, it's notjust something which says he's fabulous. it's something which says we get a terrific performance from the parent who has to stand up and say you have to talk to us, you have to make these decisions collectively. and also, as inspirational sports stories go, it's really is one of the best. but even i know the story and i thought it was told engagingly. yes, there is a certain amount of soft soaping some elements of it. but it is a portrait of someone who is driven and trying to do something — and bear in mind, trying to break into the privileged white enclaves of the us tennis scene, and therefore probably has to be as forceful as he is. you don't come out of it thinking saint, but you come out of it thinking ok, i can understand how that character was important in making all of this happen — even if at times there were arguments about enough is enough. i think that's down to will smith's performance. is this one of the best things he's done for a while? i like will smith in pretty much everything, even when his films are bad. the thing is, he is a very likeable screen presence. he made some very unlikable, terrible films, but i think this is pretty decent. right, let's talk about spencer. i heard you on 5live the other week absolutely raving about this. i loved it. have you seen it? you have to see it. i will. we are in that period where it's awards season, so all the great films are coming out now. kristen stewart is fabulous, absolutely fabulous as princess diana. three days over christmas at sandringham. it's a ghost story, a psychological thriller, a brilliant score byjohnny greenwood, and it is the absolute antithesis of that terrible film diana which came out some years ago and was just awful. this is brilliant, and if kristen stewart does not get award nominations and ifjohnny greenwood does not get award nominations, there is nojustice. in terms of streaming, what are you going to recommend? bruised is on netflix. it is directed by halle berry, who stars, and it's the story of a mixed martial arts fighter who left the ring some time ago, now is suddenly reunited with her child and discovers she has to get back into the ring. now, it's quite well directed. it's certainly got very, very gritty, punchy fight scenes. if there's a problem with it, and there is, it ticks every sport cliche in the book. but that said, there are things it does that are interesting. it's clearly very committed. during the fight scenes, there's an awful lot of rocky, and that's not necessarily a bad thing. it is not the most original film, given girlfight and more recently fighting with my family, but i thought it was fine. i think it's well directed, and certainly the fight scenes were very gritty and you can feel the fights. in terms of the every sport cliche, what do you mean? so you have to get into the ring because you have to win the match, but also what you have to do is win over your life, and you have to solve the problem for your child, and you have to deal with the issue... it is overburdened with stuff that has to be overcome, and also with no plot spoilers intended, rocky is the kind of thing that laid the template for all of these movies because rocky went, if you want to tell the story, this is how you do it. and it's almost as if someone has gone, i'll do it. how long ago was it that halle berry won her 0scar? some time, and what happened after that was that the great career resurgence did not then come immediately. the interesting thing was that it played as a work in progress in toronto in 2020, at which point i think it had a score by terence blanchard, which it now doesn't have. it has a score by someone else who had a really exciting composer at the moment but it's interesting. it's well directed and it's just carrying too much baggage. thank you very much. good to see you. that's it for this week. thank you for watching, and goodbye. hello, this is breakfast with rogerjohnson and naga munchetty. we have lots to talk about in the programme. mike is with us and you have hotfooted it from children in need last night, and it was great and we will talk about that later. fantastic. fantastic. 0ne and we will talk about that later. fantastic. fantastic. one of the things in sport, we are concerned about

she was and an e—mailappeared, china, we did not know where she was and an e—mail appeared, purported to be from her, darts —— doubts were cast upon that and people from the tennis world are now expressing their concern. the united in nations as well, —— united nations, the us need verifiable proof she is safe and well because this story, a global profile now with all of the big stars like serena williams and andy murray are speaking out and you think a bit of contact would put everyone's minds at rest but we have not had that as such, directly, between the player peng shuai and the women's tennis association which is what everyone wants to see emma to come everyone's nerves. as time goes on, still no contact. the women's tennis association, are stepping up the pressure. they have said "no amount of money" would stop them pulling events of china next year. peng made sexual assault allegations against a former china vice—premier two weeks ago. wta chairman steve simon told the bbc that he is "very, very concerned about her" and there will be no events in china next year without proof that peng is safe. let's just say we don't want to be in this position but at the end of the day, like i said, this is one of those decisions where compromises are not acceptable and we have to do what is right here and we will figure it out if we end up being in a position at the end of the day. staying with tennis and away from that story. confirmation that unvaccinated players will not be allowed to compete at the 2022 australian open. there had been a lot of confusion over the restrictions with contradictory statements from australian politicians. a large number of players remain unvaccinated, while defending men's champion novak djokovic has not revealed his vaccination status. confirmation, too, that the tournament will be played in front of capacity crowds in january. it's been a standout season for cameron norrie but it ended in a straight—sets defeat to world number one novak djokovic at the atp finals in turin. norrie became the british number one, climbed to 12th in the world rankings and won indian wells, but was outclassed by the 20—time grand slam champion djokovic, who he played for the first time. cricket bosses in england and wales say racism is a "blight" on our game and they "apologise unreservedly". that's in response to azeem rafiq's testimony to the dcms select committee on tuesday. the sport's top figures met at the 0val yesterday to come up with a plan of action, to try and tackle the issue, and a statement from them said that rafiq had shone a light on the game that had shocked, shamed and saddened them all. we will continue to listen, to make swift and positive change to the culture of the game. we will embrace and celebrate differences everywhere, knowing that with diversity, we are stronger. today is a game we discussed a series of tangible cricket to make likeable changes to make cricket a sport where everyone feels safe and everyone is included. we will now finalise the detail and publish these actions next week. our game must win back your trust. the premier league returns today with steven gerard taking charge of aston villa for the first time. and it was supposed to the start of a new era at newcastle united but new manger eddie howe will miss his side's game with brentford because of covid—19. howe tested positive during a routine test on friday, meaning that he won't be at the match that he was hoping would be his first in charge of newcastle. instead, assistant head coaches jason tindall and graemejones will take charge of the team at st james' park. manchester city's kevin de bruyne, is also missing after he tested positive for covid after returning from international duty with belgium. he'll isolate for 10 days, which means that he'll miss city's next three games, including their key champions league tie with paris saint—germain on wednesday. it's the grand finale of the golf season and rory mcilroy is still in contention at the dp world tour championship. he starts his third round injust a couple of hours' time. a double bogey on the 18th yesterday saw him slip back to nine under par, one shot off the lead. england's sam horsfield, john catlin of the usa and ireland's shane lowry are all on 10 under. it's the season—ending event on the women's tour, too, at the group tour championship in florida. england's georgia hall is tied for fifth, five shots off the lead after the second round. she birdied the 18th last night to stay just about within touching distance of celine boutier of france, who sits at the top of the leaderboard on 14 under par. what a finale we have in store, to the formula 1 season after lewis hamilton's astonishing win last weekend. three races to go and hamilton is 14 points within, or behind the leader, max verstappen. formula 1 is breaking new ground this weekend as it heads to qatar for the first time. third practice will get under way in a few hours, but valtteri bottas was quickest in second practice yesterday. pierre gasly was second, while max verstappen was third. lewis hamilton could only manage fourth. significantly, hamilton was wearing a special helmet with the rainbow flag on it as human rights remain a contentious issue in qatar — especially lg bt rights. london irish beat saracens in the premiership rugby cup at the brentford community stadium. they ran in three tries in the first half to lead 21—0 at the break, and then added another in the second through cillian redmond. sarries responded, but london irish held on to win by 29 points to 20. it's now two wins from two for them in a competition that had a two—year absence because of the pandemic. normally we would not get too

the first time in almost 50 years. from today, great western railway services will run between 0kehampton and exeter. it's part of a government scheme to restore abandoned railway lines. john maguire reports. 0n the railway arrived in 0kehampton, the town through a huge street party to celebrate. that was 150 years ago. the next century saw crowds cover for other important occasions to name trains and to send the town's sounds off to war. and even the line's closure in 1972, part of the beaching cuts, was marked with some ceremony. today, the festivities continue. a scheduled passenger service

weather today but much colder and with some sunshine around tomorrow. this was yesterday in aberdeen, where we saw temperatures of 17 celsius, really well above average for the time of year. as we head through the coming week, a significant drop. by about friday we are looking at temperatures of only four degrees, so a 13 degrees drop in temperature. definitely time to dig out the winter coat through the course of the week. for the here and now we have high pressure not far away, sitting to the south. this weather front tracking its way through the uk today and tonight. by the time we get to tomorrow at the blue colours return to the map. these northerly winds, quite a windchill in the forecast for tomorrow as well. today if you are getting out and about a lot of dry weather for england and wales. sunshine for parts of northern england and northern wales, staying cloudy further south. scotland and northern ireland will have a weather front moving south through the morning, clearing to sunny spells and scattered showers this afternoon. temperatures around seven or eight across the north of scotland later on. we could see 12 or 13 across southern england. through the evening and tonight, that cloud in the south and this weak weather front fizzling out and moving its way south. clear skies working in, so it will be a colder night than we have seen recent knee. certain me a touch of frost, quite widespread frost on the north, temperatures five or six degrees evenin temperatures five or six degrees even in our towns and cities towards the south. a chilly start to the day and then we have this northerly wind importing some showers. there could be quite heavy and potentially thundery for parts of scotland, some wintering us over the high ground and plenty for the east coast of england as well. fewer showers further west but there could be a few around these irish sea coasts and temperatures tomorrow between seven and perhaps 11 degrees. feeling cooler where you are exposed to that chilly northerly wind. high pressure stays with us as we head on towards monday. something a bit less cold for a time working around that area of high pressure. that is a weather front which will bring a bit more cloud to scotland and northern ireland through the day on monday, not quite as cold. for england and wales we're with blue sky and the chilly field to the weather. the temperatures will be seven to 11 degrees on monday, quite breezy through the english channel as well. what we will see through the coming week is a return to some frosty mornings. could be some mist and fog patches lingering through the mornings as well. here is the outlook into next week and it is not quite as cold for monday and tuesday. some of us just about in double figures but look at the dropping temperature through the course of the week. four to six degrees by the time we get to friday, with some showers around as well. if you have the mild and dry weather today, get out and enjoy it because things will turn much more wintry from tomorrow onwards. henge wintry from tomorrow onwards. have ou ot wintry from tomorrow onwards. have you got your — wintry

but some things are just solutions looking for problems. the first obvious place for vr was gaming, but once the technology had proved that it was properly immersive, we started to see signs that it really could take us to real places. it could put us in all sorts of situations, including education and even medicine. and sometimes, technology turns out to be most useful where you least expect it. i've seen vr used to help people overcome phobias. you've seen it used to teach students how to do surgery. but this has to be the most powerful use of vr i have ever seen. six—month—old archie was born with sagittal synostosis. you are a happy boy, aren't you? a condition where a baby's growth lines in the skull fuse too early. this means as the brain grows, the skull can't grow sideways to accommodate it, so it expands front and back, distorting the head shape. oh, that was nice! while it is not life—threatening, it leaves parents like amanda and judd faced with a difficult decision as to whether they opt for the risks of surgery or let nature take its course, with the physical and psychological impacts that follow. it's been quite overwhelming, hasn't it? like, there's been a lot of appointments and a lot of time away. so, when offered the chance to be the first to use a groundbreaking new ai platform that predicts the outcome of the operation in virtual reality, theyjumped at the chance. you are able to see your own child's condition or your own child's heart or head projected into this virtual environment, with a full feeling of what will happen in terms of the treatment to your own child. i've come here to great 0rmond street hospital to join the family for their consultation where, for the first time, they're going to get to see the virtual reality. you're about to see now what will hopefully be the final result. how are you feeling? excited. and obviously, there is always that worry about what he is going to have done. archie babbles. and that's what he thinks of it! you will be placed in an immersive lworld and you're going to be able | to interact with things using the controllers. | so here is archie's skull as it stands now that we have done the reconstruction using the ct scan. and as you can see, this is the side view. we've got the forehead here, the back of the head here, and these lines are the sutures — the ones that are working still, the growth lines. so the way we do the surgery is we make a small window in the bone, here. the algorithms needed to create these images have been made possible by the harnessing of data from 60 operations over the course of the last seven years. so here, the grey is the head shape as it's now, the green is the predicted head shape, so the first change that you can see is that the back of his head which, at the moment is sloping down, is pushed up a little and there's a more regular curvature to it. this immersive experience allows the parents to see from all angles a truly personalised picture of exactly how archie's head can be reshaped with surgery. would you like us to suggest anything about the head shape that you would like to see done differently? no, i think it's the back of the head that we are noticing the most. indeed, and that you should see within a week or two of surgery... wow, 0k. ..you can see the back going in. and, having confirmed their decision to go ahead, within a few weeks, the big day arrived. the theatre is just being prepared as, in a few minutes, archie is coming into his surgery where a spring like this is going to be inserted into his skull through a small cut. it will immediately expand and start to change the shape of his head, and then continue to do so over the next four weeks. at that point, it can be removed. invented by doctorjeelani 13 years ago, this technique has reduced operation time from three hours to 40 minutes, cut blood transfusions by 90% and provides more predictable outcomes. 0k, spring engaged. and it's that predictability that's made the data usable for visualisations with 90% accuracy. so we have just finished. the surgery�*s gone really well. the springs are in, we've seen an expansion on the table and we should meet our predictions over the next few weeks. what we've seen here is being created for one particular condition, but it could be applied to many different types of surgery in the future. what we have shown here is essentially proof of principle — that if you take a condition, an art form, make it granular enough that you can study it and put it on engineering and ai platforms, then you can actually predict the future with a reasonable degree of accuracy. what i would like to see as a surgeon in ten, perhaps 20 years' time, is that most surgeries — most surgical practice is done this way, where the control and the power is very much given to the parents and the patients. two weeks on from surgery and we visited archie and his family. we're quite relieved that we are over the other side now. archie's doing really well. so we've been told that obviously now he's had it done, there shouldn't be any concerns with development and things, so we're really with how it went. but having the opportunity of doing the vr really, really sort of reassured us that we were doing the right thing. i know that was something that did cross our mind at first, but being able to actually see the before and after was quite a relief of that pressure, wasn't it? it lifted that weight off our shoulders so, yeah, we're happy. the lost city of pompeii was destroyed by an eruption of mount vesuvius in the first century. while a lot of the site was remarkably preserved, many details of life here were lost, including some of the colourful frescoes of the buildings. above the main site is the cacina rustica, a storage place for thousands of fragments of two frescoes destroyed in the initial eruption and damaged further by bombing in world war ii. how many pieces do you think are here? i think here we get 10,000 pieces of fragments at the moment. this is only a little part because in other storerooms we have more and more in a box that never studied before. the fragments come in all sorts of sizes, from tiny bits of rubble to big pieces. so no—one knows exactly how these frescoes look like. there are lots of missing pieces. it's not like an ordinary puzzle. there will be a lot of holes in this fresco. these are three—dimensional pieces which are flat on one side. 0n the flat side, there is usually some decoration, some colour, and there is a kind of a three—dimensional structure, and these pieces do not match exactly, so it's a very difficult and challenging problem. the puzzle has remained unsolved for decades, and now, a team led by the ca' foscari university of venice, will create a robotic system to analyse and eventually piece together the frescoes. called repair, or reconstructing the past: artificial intelligence and robotics meet cultural heritage, it's the first time machine learning and artificial intelligence techniques will be used to take on a project of this scale. the robot is scanning a piece of fresco using polarised lenses and so, at the end of the process, the piece will be scanned in 3d. with the same infrastructure and the same type of technology, we can also scan the same piece using hyperspectral sensors that are able to collect information that the human eyes cannot see. this information includes the residual colours of pigments used by the romans which cannot be seen with the naked eye. what we can see here is basically, the light coming from our object at different wavelengths. we can select the wavelength that we want to look at, and this amount gave us initial information of our material of our sample. different points on the objects can be selected to examine closely, with information given about similarities and differences between pixels in the image. once all of the information is collected, an algorithm will suggest how it thinks the pieces fit together and what's missing, and run it past a human expert. if this works, i think it will have a huge potential in future projects, both in pompeii and elsewhere, for not only wall paintings but also pottery fragments, which is the majority of finds during most excavations. and there is a huge potential in reconstructing and, yeah, analysing these finds. the final piece of the puzzle is a robot that will be built to be able to handle and reconstruct the frescoes using soft hands. the robot will pick up with its hands all the fragments, grasping every single pieces, and i think this kind of robotic colleague is like — maybe internet before 19 years. yes! now it's new and i hope it will be very usual and common for us in the future to have this kind of help. how interesting was that? absolutely. that wasjen in pompeii. that is it for the shortcut of click. the full—length version is waiting for you right now on

we're going to see a chilly northerly wind developing tomorrow. i'll have all the details here on bbc breakfast. patrick baker, bbc news. it's saturday the 20th of november. our top story: dutch police have shot and wounded at least two people after rioting erupted in rotterdam over new covid—19 measures. coronavirus restrictions are being tightened in the netherlands and a number of other eu countries, in response to rising case numbers. austria faces a full lockdown from monday and compulsory vaccinations from next year.tim muffett has the latest. protesters in rotterdam responding to the partial lockdown imposed in the netherlands. police used water cannon and fired warning shots. at least two people were injured. restrictions here began on monday and are set to be in place for another two weeks at least. like many countries in europe, the netherlands has seen a sharp rise in covid cases. in austria, a 20—day lockdown will start this monday. people will be asked to work from home and non—essential shops will close. in february, covid vaccinations will become compulsory. what we experience in austria right now is, in my view, an unfortunate collusion of the fact that we have a fairly low vaccination rate in the population and that the waning of immunity hits austria now, six months after we started our vaccination programme, and that is unfortunately right at the beginning of the winter season, where people are moving indoors. in germany, covid cases are also rising sharply. the government is set to introduce restrictions for unvaccinated people in areas where hospital admissions exceed a certain level. as for the prospect of a full lockdown, the german government says nothing has been ruled out. in the uk yesterday, just over 44,000 new people tested positive for coronavirus. over the week, there was a 13% increase in cases compared to the previous seven days. between the ninth and 15th of november, just over 6000 people were admitted to hospital with covid — that's a fall of 4.5% compared to the previous seven days. at the moment, the uk is not witnessing the surge in cases being seen in some other countries. we have, i'm sure, the highest levels of overall immunity in europe — it's over 90% amongst adults and approaching that level in children as well now — so that is quite a different situation to many countries in europe, including austria and germany, who did not have as had first waves or second waves and did not have the significant delta wave yet, either. there are renewed calls for people to get boosterjabs if they are eligible in the hope the uk can avoid the tougher restrictions being imposed elsewhere. tim muffett, bbc news. let's speak to our europe correspondent nick beake. good morning to you in brussels. countries across the continent are really trying to stem the rise in infections. quite a bit stricter in many places than we have got in the uk at the moment. what's the reaction been? morning, roger. we have countries across europe, individual governments, kind to work out the best course of action for their population and as we saw there, they are taking various different responses to this. some measures are much stricter than others. in terms of the strongest reaction, it came in rotterdam overnight, those violent scenes we saw with the police shooting and winding two people and the police force in the city of rotterdam in the netherlands saying it was justified city of rotterdam in the netherlands saying it wasjustified because there was a genuine threat to life —— wounding two people. what seem to have sparked the protest last night that turn violent was the idea that people would not be able to use fireworks on new year's eve and also some people unhappy they have to show covid passes to get into restaurants and bars and other places which already will shut earlier so that sparked things there. i think people will be watching to see what the reaction is in austria, where they have gone much further than other countries because they are talking about this compulsory vaccination from the first of february and also this new lockdown which is going to last up to 20 days, we are told. and next door from austria in germany, they are talking about a national of care emergency in the state of bavaria in particular, they go further there, talking about a lockdown of the unvaccinated people so all of these countries are making lots of different positions and of course all of the time, british government is looking to what works, what people are tolerating, and what is the best way forward is as we move towards christmas.— the best way forward is as we move towards christmas. thank you indeed for speaking — towards christmas. thank you indeed for speaking to _ towards christmas. thank you indeed for speaking to us. _ nick beake. presidentjoe biden has said he is "angry" after a teenager who shot dead two people was cleared of murder. kyle rittenhouse argued that he'd acted in self—defence when he killed two men and wounded another during racialjustice protests last year. 0ur washington correspondent nomia iqbal reports. the defendant will rise and face the jury and harken to its verdicts. a dangerous vigilante or someone acting in self—defence? after 26 hours, thejury decided kyle rittenhouse's fate. we, thejury, find the defendant, kyle h rittenhouse, not guilty. the 12 men and women of the jury accepted the teenager's claim he killed out of fear for his safety. somehow, some way, those 12jurors found that he was innocent. yelling. applause. woo! outside court, the political divisions this case has caused were clear. you attack me, i have the right to defend myself! that's what kyle was on trial for and that's what kyle is now found acquitted of, 0k? so you're telling me if two guys come up to you and accost you, you can't defend yourself? that's what was on trial today! there is no way in a law — in a land of law where a person can shoot three people, kill two of them, and be acquitted. there'sjust no way. the shooting happened against the backdrop of nationwide protests over racism and police brutality following the murder of george floyd. in kenosha, another black man, named jacob blake, had been shot by police seven times and on the third night of riots, kyle rittenhouse entered the city. he said he came to provide security. in a series of confrontations, he shot dead joseph rosenbaum, who had chased after him into this car park. he then killed another man who ran after rittenhouse, thinking he was an active shooter. a third man survived. police later arrested the teenager and charged him with murder. people... sobs. at his trial, there were tears and a controversial offence —— defence by his team in regards to the shooting of jacob blake. other people in this community have shot somebody seven times and it's been found to be ok, and my client did it four times in three—quarters of a second to protect his life from mr rosenbaum. i'm sorry, but that's what happened. this not guilty verdict is seen as a referendum on an issue that polarises americans beyond kenosha, and that is the issue of gun ownership. for many conservative groups, kyle rittenhouse is now seen as a hero. but for many liberal groups, he is the face of a gun culture out of control and they're worried, by being cleared of the charges, what it might mean now for future protests. can americans turn up with a gun but not face any consequences? nomia iqbal, bbc news, kenosha. colin pitchfork, the man who killed two teenagers in the 1980s, is back in prison less than two months after being released. it's understood he breached the terms of his licence but did not commit any further offences. he served 33 years for killing 15—year—olds lynda mann and dawn ashworth in leicestershire. single—use plastic plates, cutlery and polystyrene cups could all be banned in england. 4.25 billion items of throwaway cutlery, most of which are plastic, are used in england per year, but only 10% are recycled. a public consultation on the issue begins today. almost £40 million has been raised by the bbc children in need appeal. you have raised, my friends, a whopping... 39 million the show was jammed packed with the usual comedy sketches and star—studded performances and ed sheeran their belt about his new single, and special editions of tv becomes like the wall and the repair shop. we will speak to some of those guys, sam and mark, who were on the wall, later in this programme. and more coming up. sarah has the weather and mike has the sport. a record number of people died while detained in england under the mental health act in the first year of the pandemic. the figures from the care quality

miller's death is a tragic and sad moment in the history of mental health services. it highlights the extreme pressure that mental health services were under during the pandemic but it also is, sadly,

conservative health secretaryjeremy hunt told me the government needs to bring in urgent changes to health ——to how health staff are recruited. staff shortages are compromising patient safety in every part of the nhs at the moment. we have a workforce crisis. it is time we completely overhauled the way we decide how many doctors and nurses we are going to train for the future. we need an independent body that sits outside the department of health, sits outside the nhs and says looking ahead five years, ten years, 15 years, this is the number of doctors we need in mental health, in kansai, in every part of the nhs. charlie's mum samantha says she is still waiting for a clear explanation about how her son could've lost his life in the very place that was meant to keep them safe ——in cancer. are full inquest into charlie's death starts next year. patrick baker, bbc news. paul farmer, the chief executive of mind who you saw briefly in the piece, joins us now. good morning to you, paul. can you explain the context of these numbers? we have seen an increase in the number of deaths for the period, which covers the pandemic and the lockdown. what we are so aware of is that until health problems have increased and the treatment for those has been very difficult because of the pandemic. also, as there is across the care industry and the nhs, there is a shortage of staff as well. paint is a picture of what is happening. i staff as well. paint is a picture of what is happening.— what is happening. i think the number of — what is happening. i think the number of people _ what is happening. i think the number of people who - what is happening. i think the number of people who has . what is happening. i think the i number of people who has been sectioned is increasing. it has increased by 15% compared to the pre— pandemic period and that in itself is a sign of the scale and severity and acuity of people presenting with mental health problems. many peoplejust presenting with mental health problems. many people just didn't feel they could go to mental health services during the pandemic, so when they turned up they were much more ill and so they ended up being sectioned. on top of that we have extreme pressure in a&e. we have heard of people staying for up to three days in a&e waiting for a mental health bed and on top of that we have 1.6 million people who need mental health treatment right now who are on a waiting list to access help and support. we have growing pressure all the way across the mental health system, so really as a direct consequence of the pandemic. recruitment is also an issue.- recruitment is also an issue. that's ri . ht, recruitment is also an issue. that's riaht, and recruitment is also an issue. that's

decades of underinvestment. that underinvestment. that underinvestment is being addressed, but what that additional £500 million for this financial year has done is create the additional capacity to cope with the pandemic effect on our mental health. that £500 million and is at the end of march and there is no clarity about additional money for mental health after march, beyond the pre— pandemic projections. there is not enoughin pandemic projections. there is not enough in the system to cope with the additional pressure that is being caused by the pandemic. so there is, as naga said, shortage of staff which is partly down to money and partly down to people not choosing to work in mental health as a career. what do you say to someone who is maybe thinking about it? people have to do a very difficult job and they do it to the best of their ability. what is attractive about the career for anyone who might want to think of doing it? first of all, i think people who work in mental health services do an incrediblejob, and they work in mental health services do an incredible job, and they do work in mental health services do an incrediblejob, and they do it work in mental health services do an incredible job, and they do it often incredible job, and they do it often in tough circumstances, but one of the things we have really noticed is as people become more interested in mental health as a subject, people are more interested in coming to work in mental health. some of those government numbers are correct, there has been an increase overall in people wanting to come and work. more people want to work with children, for example, in children's mental health services. we are beginning to see more and more people wanting to come in but what we have to create are the places for those people who do want to come in at work. it is an incredibly rewarding job. at work. it is an incredibly rewardingjob. making at work. it is an incredibly rewarding job. making a difference to a young person's life when they are at the depth of their despair and anxiety, at a moment where you could literally be saving their life and certainly saving their future... this is the message, isn't it? there will be someone watching this morning who is in mental health crisis or someone who knows someone who is struggling with a mental health crisis and needs help now. the message is don't be scared to ask for help, still. there are pressures but there are brilliant people out there who want to help. hugely important. if anyone is worried about their mental health or a friend orfamily member, reach out, talk to someone you trust, come to the mind website for information and call 111. there will be information available for you. lets have a look at how the weather is

evening at overnight, here is the weather front in the south. that clears away and we are left in the cold and clear ms a few scattered showers moving in from the north but temperatures in our towns and cities between about freezing and cities between about freezing and plus seven, a few degrees colder in the countryside. a frost around for many of us first tomorrow. those northerly winds bringing some showers, a little bit wintry with perhaps some hail and sleet over the higher grounds and the mountains. showers down the east coast of england as well. some sunshine around as well but only about seven to 11 degrees and you will notice that wind chill as well. back to you both. we've heard a lot this week about tensions on the border between poland and belarus, but that issue is part of a much longer and more complex power struggle between russia and the west. the bbc�*s ros atkins has been exploring it. many people watching eastern europe at the moment are asking one

but what everyone knows is that tension is rising. the eu and russia have been blaming each other for the migrant crisis on the belarus poland border. there has also been a major build—up of russian troops near the border with ukraine, and america is watching. taste ukraine, and america is watching. we do ukraine, and america is watching. 9 do continue to see unusual military activity and the concentration of forces in russia, but near ukrainian borders, and that remains consenting to us. we borders, and that remains consenting to us. ~ i, borders, and that remains consenting to us. 9 ii i, i, i, to us. we have also heard one ukrainian _ to us. we have also heard one ukrainian minister— to us. we have also heard one ukrainian minister warning - to us. we have also heard one ukrainian

alarmist, though russia did invade georgia into thousand and eight and we know more broadly toutant does want to test the west. —— putin. to understand why and how he is doing that, ukraine is the place to start. it was once part of the soviet union, and even after independence in 1991, it remained an ally of russia's. the relationship frayed, and in 2014 russia annexed crimea from ukraine and made a military incursion into the east of ukraine to support separatists. for that, russia was booted out of the gs that, russia was booted out of the g8 group of countries and faced economic sanctions as well, but it did not back down. and now this year, this has been happening. first, in the spring, thousands of russian troops were sent towards the border with ukraine. now, in borderwith ukraine. now, in november, another build—up is happening and ukrainian officials estimate that 114,000 troops have been deployed. and vladimir putin will be well aware that the us continues to watch.

sanctions and condemnation, but he had his reasons. we can see one of them in this article injuly. president putin wrote this. and certainly one of his motivations is a desire to maintain the alliances, influence and cultural connections that are rooted in russia's history. but for all that, this is also about security. have a look at this map from the website of the defence alliance nato. there is russia in the east and then the light blue coloured countries are all nato members. ukraine is not a nato member but it gets major military support from the us and others, and all of this is to close for comfort for putin. in his eyes, it requires a response. keep that in mind as we consider how the us is now connecting the current russian troop build—up and another escalating situation. here is a recent tweet from the secretary of state, anthony blinken. he describes a hybrid campaign on the poland belarus border which seeks to threaten security, so division and distract from russia's activities on the border with ukraine. and to understand why the americans are making that connection, we need to look at belarus. this story is a very human drama, but the backdrop — thatis very human drama, but the backdrop — that is geopolitics. that is the bbc�*s steve rosenberg and belarus this week. this country was also once part of the soviet union, but unlike ukraine, belarus remains an ally of russia. presidents lukashenko and putin know each other well. that is relevant as we look at the crisis on the border between holland and belarus. poland is in the european union and the eu accuses lukashenko of encouraging migrants to use belarus as a route into the eu. lukashenko denies that, but thousands have come in and in desperate conditions have tried to get into poland. other eu countries are affected as well. lithuania and latvia have also seen a rise in illegal crossings from belarus, and for the polish prime minister this isn't only about belarus and the eu. it is about russia.— it is about russia. translation: this attack. _ it is about russia. translation: this attack, which _ it is about russia. translation: this attack, which lukashenko - it is

where he wants to be. this is one possible explanation for prudent�*s approach. lithuania's president goes further. prudent's approach. lithuania's president goes further. translation: it is totally

destroying a satellite in a missile test, much to nato's irritation. and here in the uk, conservative mp tobias elwood sees another test coming. everyone is watching, and this isn't just about military might because to understand putin's plans, we also need to think about energy. this is the node stream to gas pipeline. it runs from russia all the way to western europe, but it is not switched on yet. in fact, germany has just delayed giving the ok. but here it is stretching underneath the baltic sea, and when it is on it will increase your�*s reliance on russian gas. to

so does this from april. translation: i hope no—one will cross russia's redline, but in each case, we are the ones who decide where the red is. organisers of any provocation threatening our security will regret it, like they have not regretted anything for a longtime. here we see the aggressive dimension to putin's approach. he asserts that russia will set the rules and enforce them. and this all connects to the broader goal of putin's leadership — to establish russia as a globalforce. to do that, putin wants to test the limits of western power. what we don't know is what he wants to happen next. but was ros atkins looking at the situation in belarus. mike is looking at the sport and still bafflement as to where peng shuai is. 9 , i, ii, , bafflement as to where peng shuai is. when you

that the chinese star peng shuai is safe. has been a development overnight in some pictures were so —— posted on the social media site with her holding bear and perhaps saying at the weekend but there is doubt over the authenticity of the photos. reportedly from her sight? yes. but we will come to that for a moment so let's recap. tennis player peng shuai is one of china's biggest sports stars and has been missing since alleging that she was sexually assaulted by a former senior minister in the chinese government. this week, tennis officials dismissed an e—mail supposedly sent by the player, which said the allegations weren't true and that she's fine. now, the women's tennis association is threatening to cancel all tennis events in china next year unless they get proof that peng is safe. our sports correspondent natalie pirks has the latest. she is a tennis star in china, a former doubles world number one who won wimbledon. receiving the trophy from the duke of kent. but now, the united nations has added its voice to the clamour of bodies all wanting to know the same thing — where is peng shuai? two weeks ago, in this social media post, peng shuai made serious sexual assault allegations against former vice premier zhang gaoli. "like an egg hitting a rock, or a moth to the flame courting self—destruction, i'll tell the truth about you," she said. within half an hour, the post had gone, and so had she. then, an e—mail surfaced, addressed to the chairman of the women's tennis association, claiming to be from her, saying she hadn't meant the allegations and was just "resting at home". but they're not buying it and are prepared to pull lucrative matches from china if they don't get proof she is safe. i don't want to see this get pushed under the rug or on the side, because at the end, there's bigger — maybe bigger issues in some people's minds as to what's going on. i think the focus has to be on peng in this situation. 23—time grand slam singles champion serena williams has tweeted she is "devastated and shocked", adding: "this must be investigated and we must not stay silent." she's not alone. we would like, actually, to hear, like, a video from her or something — like real proof that, yes, she's all right. the eyes of the world will be on beijing in february for the winter olympics. but so far, the international olympic committee is only saying this requires quiet diplomacy. the ioc must fulfil its claims and responsibilities in this case and demonstrate that athletes really are at the heart of sport. it has significant leverage and influence to exert in this case, especially with the beijing olympics just around the corner now. in a country where few are allowed to challenge senior authorities without paying the price, concern grows by the hour for peng shuai's safety. natalie pirks, bbc news. so overnight, three photos of peng shuai were posted on a wechat account under her name with the caption "happy weekend". she can be seen here posing with a cat and holding a panda soft toy. however, the authenticity of the post on the chinese instant messaging service has been questioned. it is direct contact but around the world authorities want. —— it is direct contact that around the world authorities want. staying with tennis, and confirmation that unvaccinated players will not be allowed to compete at the australian open in the new year. there had been a lot of confusion over the restrictions with conflicting statements from australian politicians. a significant number of players remain unvaccinated, while defending men's champion novak djokovic has not revealed his vaccination status. we have also had confirmation that the tournament will be played in front of capacity crowds in january. a standout season for british number one cameron norrie has come to an end with a straight—sets defeat to the world number one novak djokovic at the atp finals in turin. but norrie will look back on the year with real pride. as well as becoming britain's top male player, he climbed to 12th in the world and won indian wells. he will learned a lot from the masterclass from the 20—time grand slam champion djokovic, whom he was playing for the first time. better news for britain's joe salisbury and his american partner rajeev ram. they sealed their place in the last four in the doubles. they beat colombian pair juan sebastian cabal and robert farah to maintain their 100% record in turin. now to football, and while steven gerard will take charge of his first match as aston villa's new manager as the premier league returns today, the start of the new era at newcastle has been delayed and eddie howe will miss his side's game with brentford because of covid 19. howe tested positive during a routine test on friday, meaning that he won't be at the match that he and fans were hoping would be his first in charge of newcastle. instead, assistant head coaches jason tindall and graemejones will take charge of the team at st james' park. manchester city's kevin de bruyne is also missing after he tested positive for covid after returning from international duty with belgium. he'll isolate for 10 days, which means that he'll miss city's next three games, including their key champions league tie with paris saint—germain, on wednesday. just three races to go in the formula 1 season. after lewis hamilton's astonishing win last weekend, he's nowjust 14 points behind leader max verstappen. the race is in qatar for the first time. third practice will get under way in a few hours, but valtteri bottas quickest in second practice yesterday. pierre gasly was second, while max verstappen was third. lewis hamilton could only manage fourth. significantly, hamilton was wearing a special helmet with the rainbow flag, on it as human rights remain a contentious issue in qatar — especially lg bt rights. we have a look ahead to a big weekend of internationals, scotland— japan, england— south africa and wales— australia, with a lot to look forward to. then the grand prix. we need multiple screens. you are looking forward to it but we will looking forward to it but we will look back now on children in need. stay!

acts as a sort of kitemark of, it's a sort of, it shows the integrity of the charity and it basically encourages the charity to raise money from other sources so people say if children in need of funding it, it is bound to work, and so it really helps local charities. i know that you throw everything at this. i know, i have spoken to you kind of away from this so far and i know how much money

marginalised backgrounds, who are given real money to spend on projects in islington. they are put in positions of power and positions of responsibility and i went back to see how they were getting on the other day and it was remarkable, these young people who, you know, they were speaking in public and giving, you know, giving significant sums of money to spend on other projects that they had to

you, and good morning at home as well. we have had temperatures well above average for november. things are about to change, it couldn't last forever. this is the picture of berwick—upon—tweed. a few clear spells. yesterday we had temperatures as high as 17 degrees in aberdeen, but look in at the drop in aberdeen, but look in at the drop in temperature. four degrees forecast for friday. a noticeable cooling down of the weather in the week ahead and it will happen quite quickly through tonight into tomorrow the as weather front pushes its way south across the uk. it will bring a little bit of rain but it is tending to fizzle out. you will notice it opens the doors for this cold air mass. the winds coming in from the north, the blue colours back on the map as we head through tomorrow and much the week ahead. today we have a mild day for much of england and wales. still quite cloudy but breaks in the cloud for northern england and north wales. scotland and northern ireland after the morning cloud and rain clears, we will be left with sunny spells and showers. temperatures somewhere between seven and 11 or 12 degrees, that it will turn colder than that through tonight into tomorrow. the clear skies affect all parts of the uk. we have a few showers coming in across the north and east, temperatures in our towns and cities just about freezing but in the countryside you can see frost first thing. more sunshine tomorrow than there is today, despite the cold weather on the cards. some wintry weather on the cards. some wintry weather in highland scotland and the odd bit of hail and thunder mixed in as well. further west you are looking at fewer showers around, but one or two in irish sea coasts and noticeably colder. seven to 10 degrees but you have the wind chill to add—on as well. high pressure very much still with us as we look into monday. something a little less cold for a time just working on around that area of high pressure. this week when front on monday will bring a bit more cloud to parts of scotland and northern ireland, a bit of rain in the far north. england and wales staying dry and sunny, quite breezy for east anglia and the south—east. temperature is about seven to 11 degrees or so, significantly cooler than it has been recently, and we are likely to see a return to some frost and some mist and fog patches. perhaps not quite as cold through the course of monday and tuesday, some of us reaching double figures. from mid week onwards another cold front comes plunging into. temperatures on thursday and friday five to seven degrees with the northerly wind as well. we have been spoiled so far but things are turning colder through the remainder of november. that is thejoy through the remainder of november. that is the joy of seasons, though. that is the joy of seasons, though. that is the joy of seasons, though. that is what we get in the uk. we have the joy of seasons, so we should embrace it with woolly hats. time now for this week's newswatch. hello, and welcome to newswatch with me, samira ahmed. should the bbc have broadcast in full the racist language this cricketer experienced? and after sunday's attack in liverpool, should the bbc have shown repeatedly the moment the bomber died in the blast? select committee sessions in parliament can be dry affairs, but the evidence given on tuesday by the former cricketer azeem rafiq to a group of mps was anything but. over the course of two hours of often emotional testimony, he related his experience of racism at yorkshire cricket club, including the offensive names he'd been called. the latter were broadcast in full as the hearing was shown live on bbc television, prompting occasional interventions like this from the presenter in the studio. it's... it's pretty clear. it's there. some people are still pretty scared, and they are... apologies for the language there that you heard. we did warn that there would be some offensive language most likely to be heard in this live hearing. obviously some swearing there. azeem rafiq recounting something he says was said, so apologies for that if that caused offence to you. chris mitchell thought it was... but ed round objected to the broadcast of one particular racial epithet. subsequent news reports bleeped out some of the racist words used by azeem rafiq, though what he could be heard to say was still harrowing. how are you feeling, azeem? his allegations have already plunged yorkshire cricket into crisis. today, azeem rafiq brought them to westminster, laying bare the ordeal he says he and other asian players were subjected to at his former club, including a racist term aimed at his pakistani heritage. it was comments such as, "you lot over there near the toilets." elephant—washers. the word bleep was used constantly. that practice led hilary price to comment... clearly a difficult area for broadcasters, and to discuss it i'm joined byjamie angus, the controller of bbc news. the evidence was harrowing, but hearing those racist words has caused distress and offence, too. you must�*ve known that we would happen by showing the hearing live. that's absolutely right, and let's be clear, there's no single view on this that is going to keep all parts of the audience happy. this is controversial and difficult language, and many different parts of the audience have different views about how it should be treated. in the context of the live broadcast, we really took the view that there was a case to hear the language used in the raw. this was a live parliamentary testimony, and as some of your correspondents have said, it was important at that stage, as the events were unfolding live, to hear azeem rafiq in his own words. so, that's why during the live broadcast, we did carry the testimony without a delay and without bleeping. but we did feel it appropriate that at that stage to warn people that there was racially offensive and other offensive language recurring during the hearing and to apologise on occasion for instances where that was heard. of course, at times, this testimony was being broadcast notjust in the uk, but around the world and glibly on our global news services. some viewers were actually annoyed by the apologies. they felt it undermined what azeem rafiq was saying. indeed, and i understand that, but i think we have to try and take into account the different expectations of different groups of people tuning in perhaps unexpectedly to this broadcast. not everyone tuning in to the bbc news channel between 9—10:30am on a weekday morning would even be aware that the hearing was taking place or would be expecting to hear this very inflammatory and difficult language, so i feel for that reason that offering an apology was genuinely meant and intended to help the audience navigate what could've been unexpected content for that time of day. so, once the live hearing finished, any news reports bleeped out the racist words, and some viewers felt the bleeping actually watered down the impact of his evidence. what do you say? well, we decided to draw a distinction, samira, between as you said the live transmission of parliamentary testimony and the subsequent packaging of that material into news packages later in the day. and to that end, we took the view that we were quite a long way into the story, the story had been running for a large number of days, and we felt it was more likely than not that most people in the audience would be aware what the language specifically was. and then therefore the need to repeat it in multiple outlets and at multiple times of the day across the rest of the day was not justifiable given the offensiveness of the language used, and that's why we decided while we weren't using the material live, to bleep it to avoid giving needless offence. by from your own listener comments the written into newswatch and indeed across a range of views in our own newsroom, there is no single hard and fast way of reaching these decisions that will please all sections of the audience. we just tried to balance the need for the audience to understand the story and understand what was being said and alluded to with the need to avoid giving offence by repeatedly using the language across multiple outlets across the rest of that day, because as it was a fact that this was the lead story and was covered very heavily across all bbc news outlets. given that this could be an ongoing issue, does the bbc have a policy of always consulting journalists who are people of colour about racist language in the news? well, interesting you mention that because of course we do take soundings and hold discussions in our own newsroom with our own staff, and we also look at evidence from audience research collated by our own editorial policy department as to what level of offence people attach to particular language and particular words. so, we do try to take dynamic decisions over time which reflect the context of a story and the frequency of use essentially of a word across a day. so, there is not a hard and fast rule for these most offensive words, particularly to do with a racial swear words, but our editorial policy guidance is that they can be used on occasion where there is a strong justification for doing so. but they should be used with a great deal of care, and i think is probably a fair summary of the position we reached earlier this week. do stay with us, jaime, but for now, thank you. details have been emerging during the course of the week about the bomb blast that took place in liverpool on sunday. here'sjune kelly on tuesday's news at six. at the women's hospital, while staff look after patients inside, outside the police are continuing their work, gathering any potential evidence. and liverpool is learning more about this man, the asylum—seeker who launched the attack on his adopted city. the image that followed that was one which has been seen frequently, sometimes two or three times in the same report over the past few days. the moment the attacker pulled up in a taxi outside the hospital and his bomb exploded, killing him and causing injuries to his driver. john griffiths was one of those concerned about the use of those pictures, and he recorded this video for us. did bbc news have to repeatedly show the cctv footage of the moment the taxi exploded outside of the liverpool women's hospital killing a passenger and injuring the driver? i can understand why it would be shown, but to show the same footage repeatedly in the same report seems to be excessive and adds nothing to the reporting of the story. whatever the circumstances may have been, this was the moment a person died and another was seriously injured and should've been treated with some dignity and respect. well, jaime angus is still with me. jamie, what is the bbc�*s policy on showing the moment of death? 0ur editorial policy guidelines say we should be very cautious about showing the moment of anyone's death, but of course sadly we live in a world where terrorist action, warfare and other violence does mean that there are important news events where we have to consider the value of showing newsworthy pictures against that guidance for caution. and this was indeed one of those events. it's worth adding that in the early hours after this incident, it wasn't at all clear what had actually happened at the hospital, and some of the information circulating subsequently, as demonstrated by these pictures, turned out to be false. so, we felt that there was a strong public interest in showing the pictures in orderfor people to understand what had actually happened, also because they showed the escape from the vehicle of the taxi driver and the presence of eyewitnesses who we were subsequently able to interview and gather their own testimony. those images were shown multiple times this week, including in headlines, so how do you answer those viewers who said it's just not decent to show that moment of death repeatedly? as i say, we have to strike a balance between public sensitivity around difficult and distressing images and the need for those images to be understood by the audience in order to interpret events that have happened. so, we have tried to use these pictures proportionately. if people had been upset by their use in headlines orfeel that their use has been overly repetitive, then i'm sorry about that. it's a conversation that we take very seriously in the newsroom. we spend a lot of time thinking about, and i think broadly we reached the right decision about the news value that these pictures and the need for the audience to see them with appropriate context in order to understand the story.

netherlands over new covid measures — as restrictions are tightened across mainland europe. and a clampdown in austria — a full lockdown from monday and compulsory vaccinations by february. we find the defendent not guilty. us gun culture back under scrutiny — after a teenager who shot dead two people during racial unrest is cleared of murder. there's growing concern, over the whereabouts of chinese tennis star, peng shuai — new pictures are posted of the missing player overnight, but the us and united nations are among those calling for verifiable proof she is safe. in the first scheme in eight new initiative, known as restoring your railways, this line is opening this morning for the very first time. it is a mild start to the day to day, back row should see a bit of cold weather. we will see a chilly anomaly when developing tomorrow. i will have all the details. are it's saturday, november 20. our top story — dutch police have shot and wounded at least two people after rioting erupted in rotterdam over new covid—19 measures. coronavirus restrictions are being tightened in the netherlands and a number of other eu countries in response to rising case numbers. austria faces a full lockdown from monday and compulsory vaccinations from next year. tim muffett has the latest. protesters in rotterdam responding to the partial lockdown imposed in the netherlands. police used water cannon and fired warning shots. at least two people were injured. restrictions here began on monday and are set to be in place for another two weeks at least. like many countries in europe, the netherlands has seen a sharp rise in covid cases. in austria, a 20—day lockdown will start this monday. people will be asked to work from home and non—essential shops will close. in february, covid vaccinations will become compulsory. what we experience in austria right now is, in my view, an unfortunate collusion of the fact that we have a fairly low vaccination rate in the population and that the waning of immunity hits austria now, six months after we started our vaccination programme, and that is unfortunately right at the beginning of the winter season, where people are moving indoors. in germany, covid cases are also rising sharply. the government is set to introduce restrictions for unvaccinated people in areas where hospital admissions exceed a certain level. as for the prospect of a full lockdown, the german government says nothing has been ruled out. in the uk yesterday, just over lili,000 new people tested positive for coronavirus. over the week, there was a 13% increase in cases compared to the previous seven days. between the 9th and 15th of november, just over 6000 people were admitted to hospital with covid — that's a fall of 4.5% compared to the previous seven days. at the moment, the uk is not witnessing the surge in cases being seen in some other countries. we have, i'm sure, the highest levels of overall immunity in europe — it's over 90% amongst adults and approaching that level in children as well now — so that is quite a different situation to many countries in europe, including austria and germany, who did not have as bad first waves or second waves and did not have the significant delta wave yet, either. there are renewed calls for people to get boosterjabs if they are eligible in the hope the uk can avoid the tougher restrictions being imposed elsewhere. tim muffett, bbc news. 0ur correspondent, bethany bell, joins us now. bethany, many people in austria have refused to get vaccinated. what's been the reaction to the news that they now have to get the jab? yes, austria is the first country in europe to make plans for compulsory vaccination. it’s europe to make plans for compulsory vaccination. �* , :, europe to make plans for

it is high time everybodyjust got vaccinated. when the chancellor announced these moves, he said it is legal under austria's constitution to bring in mandatory vaccination. but a lot of other people here say this is a very difficult step when it comes to the question of civil liberties. the far right freedom party, which has campaigned very much on a platform of vaccine scepticism, says it is calling for protests against these moves. there have been a number of demonstrations called for in the ni today. that party says the government is following the constitution overboard and leaving the country into a dictatorship. the chancellor though says they have had vaccine mandates in austria before, notably with vaccinations against smallpox for example. other austrians say they are just so fed up with the pandemic, they want everybody to get vaccinated as soon as they can. this is an issue dividing the country,. around two thirds of austrians are vaccinated, one of the lowest rates in europe. presidentjoe biden has said he is "angry" after a teenager who shot dead two people was cleared of murder. kyle rittenhouse argued that he'd acted in self—defence when he killed two men and wounded another during racialjustice protests last year. our washington correspondent, nomia iqbal, reports. the defendant will rise and face i the jury and harken to its verdicts. a dangerous vigilante, or someone acting in self—defence? after 26 hours, thejury decided kyle rittenhouse's fate. we the jury find the defendant, kyle h rittenhouse, not guilty. the 12 men and women of the jury accepted the teenager's claim he killed out of fear for his safety. somehow, some way, those 12jurors found that he was innocent. outside court, the political divisions this case has caused were clear. you attack me, i have the right to defend myself, that's what kyle was on trial for, that's what he was acquitted for. are you telling me that if two guys come up to you and accost you, you can't defend yourself? that's what was on trial today. there is no way in a land of law where a person can shoot three people, kill two of them, and be acquitted. there'sjust no way. the shooting happened against the backdrop of nationwide protests over racism and police brutality, following the murder of george floyd. in kenosha, another black man, named jacob blake, had been shot by police seven times, and on the third night of riots kyle rittenhouse entered the city. he said he came to provide security. in a series of confrontations, he shot dead joseph rosenbaum, who had chased after him into this car park. he then killed another man, who ran after rittenhouse, thinking he was an active shooter. a third man survived. police later arrested the teenager and charged him with murder. at his trial, there were tears and a controversial defence by his team, in regards to the shooting of jacob blake. other people in this community have shot somebody seven times and it's been found to be ok. my client did it four times in three—quarters of a second to protect his life from mr rosenbaum. i'm sorry, but that's what happened. this not guilty verdict is seen as a referendum on an issue that polarises americans beyond kenosha, and that is the issue of gun ownership. for many conservative groups, kyle rittenhouse is now seen as a hero. but for many liberal groups, he is the face of a gun culture out of control, and they are worried by being cleared of the charges what it might mean now for future protests. can americans turn up with a gun but not face any consequences? nomia iqbal, bbc news, kenosha. in response to the case, presidentjoe biden said: he went on to say, "i urge everyone to express their views peacefully, consistent with the rule of law. violence and destruction of property have no place in our democracy." almost £40 million has been raised by the bbc children in need appeal. you have raised a whopping 569,389,048. the show was jam—packed with the usual comedy sketches and star—studded performances. ed sheeran belted out his new single and there were special editions of tv programmes, like the wall and the repair shop. we are going to be talking about some of those programmes a little later on. single—use plastics — such as plates and cutlery, as well as polystyrene cups — could all be banned in england under new plans being considered by the government. it is estimated that only 10% of such items a re currently recycled. let's take you through the scale of the problem. according to estimates, in england alone, we get through 1.1 billion single—use plates every year. in addition to that, 4.25 billion single use pieces of cutlery, the vast majority of which are plastic, are also used. disposable coffee cups have been a long—standing issue and the uk as a whole throws away 2.5 billion of those every year. we can speak now to helen bird from the waste reduction charity, wrap. we have spoken about this for so

under the plastic pact is packaging unnecessary use around fruit and vegetables. our latest research we are publishing ratio looks at the correlation between footways in the household, where the majority of food waste exists, and that is absolutely damaging for the environment and plastic packaging. we believe there are many opportunities to remove plastic packaging and save food waste. for example, we threw away 4.4 million potatoes in the bin every day. the carbon impact of that is astronomical. the reason we feel these things away is because we are buying too many. that's because we are so dumb in a plastic packaging. so there is opportunity for us to kneel away from that. we as individuals have an important role to play. in many instances, we have a choice. supermarkets need to offer us more choice, packaging free. we also need to take them up on that. thank you very much. we are seeing thejoys of zoom thank you very much. we are seeing the joys of zoom and the technological

line for a few years and hasn't been in regular service for almost 50 years. but today it has been reopened, the first train ran this morning, it was absolutely packed. i've never seen someone get off a chain and fist pump the air, that is the level of excitement around this service. it will take people from here to exeter in the weekday, students and commuters, you can get to here to london in around three hours. try and do that in a car, it is going to take more than four. it is going to be a huge boost to the local economy here and the people, and that is a good deal of excitement for what is a very historic line. when the railway arrived in 0kehampton, the town threw a huge street party to celebrate. that was 150 years ago. the next century saw crowds gather for other important occasions to name trains and to send the town's sons off to war. and even the line's closure in 1972, part of the beeching cuts, was marked with some ceremony. today, the festivities continue as scheduled passenger service returns, a reward for years of campaigning. back in the summer, we filmed the new tracks being laid. fantastic. this is the moment, isn't it, really, when the track gets put down, the new track, and it'll be shortly, hopefully, a train to exeter. just remind me, how long have you been campaigning and working on this? well, i arrived in 0kehampton in 1975 and i saw it going gradually derelict then, so that was when i first became interested in it. the line is the very first to reopen as part of the government's restoring your railway scheme but this week, it's seen controversy and anger elsewhere with the scrapping of the hs2 link to leeds and the northern powerhouse line between leeds and manchester. the restoration of the dartmoor line was made easier by the fact that after closing to passenger services, it's continued to be used for transporting railway ballast from a nearby quarry. it also ran as a heritage railway but now, it's been upgraded. it's not as easy as you think. it hasn't been in good condition but there is a huge amount of work. we've done kind of 11 miles of track installation in the last four weeks. it's actually been one of the fastest track installations in network rail history. well, this is the new track construction machine. it's an impressive piece of kit, about a quarter of a mile long. you can see what's happening. the grey pod at the top runs back, grabs the sleepers, brings them to the front the train and then lays them in a perfectly straight line on the bed with the two metal tracks on top. it'll run at a rate of about 400 metres per hour. and in the belly of the beast, it is ryan'sjob to keep the machine, well, on track. my position is to ensure that it's somewhere near — and usually, i'm pretty good. so you have to constantly monitor the height of your clamps so they don't hit the sleepers, the spacing of the rail behind you and obviously, the line itself. so it's a concentration game? yeah, big time. after a week where the government's been accused of reneging on promised rail improvements in the north of england, reopening this line may seem a small step, but it is a giant leap for people here, the passengers who will use it and the communities it will serve. john maguire, bbc news, devon. those are the views you can have. the line which was mothballed in 1972, now seven days a week will be taking passages from today. it is interesting. _ taking passages from today. it is interesting, it _ taking passages from today. it is interesting, it is _ taking passages from today. it 3 interesting, it is a reversal of the beeching cuts. it would be great at this time when we need more public transport if we could reverse more of them, but of course many of those lines have disappeared. thea;r of them, but of course many of those lines have disappeared.— lines have disappeared. they have comletel lines have disappeared. they have completely gone. _ if you're out on a run this weekend, you might have thought about going an extra mile, but probably not 101 miles in 24 hours. that's the challenge awaiting former rugby league star kevin sinfield who will set off on his toughest challenge yet to raise funds for research into motor neurone disease, inspired by his close friend and team—mate rob burrow who is living with mnd. tigers, to headingly, kevin will run from his current club, leicester tigers, to headingly, the home of his and rob's beloved leeds rhinos. let's have a look at how the preparations have been going. this could be the biggest challenge that he

is one thing about kevin, and anyone who knows him and has the privilege to be in his company even for the shortest period of times, he has quality and great values. he has had that throughout his career as a player. he has been able to transfer it off the field as well as a beautiful human being to encompass everybody in regards to helping everybody in regards to helping everybody with mnd the. his mental strength is so tough and is at the highest level. i have no doubt whatsoever he will make this challenge. it will be difficult at some period of time. i think you will look back and look at his childhood player he has played with since the age of 12, 13, rob burrow, and i think rob is in a situation of their 24 also a day. he only has to do it for one day. it is their 24 also a

one, two days before you do your challenge, not too much information. kevin knows what to do. he has been in tight situations where he has been tough and mentally challenging as well. when he turned

with the sport. mike is here with us this morning and there is a serious top story. this is the image that seen by millions around the world with the hashtag where is peng shuai? there hashtag where is peng shuai? there has been no direct contact with her, one of the biggest sports stars in china, and the various tennis authorities who are calling for her to make some kind of contact. overnight, three photos of peng shuai were posted on a wechat account, under her name with the caption "happy weekend". she can be seen here posing with a cat, and holding a panda soft toy, and yet no reference at all to the story that has got the rest of the world worried from the united nations to the us, and the authenticity of the post on the chinese instant messaging service, has been questioned just like an email which surfaced earlier in the week. peng hasn't been seen since she made sexual assault allegations, against a former china vice—premier two weeks ago. the head of the women's tennis association, told the bbc that he is "very, very concerned about her" and that there would be no tennis events in china next year without proof that peng is safe. let's just say we don't want to be in this position but, at the end of the day, like i said, this is one of those decisions where compromises are not acceptable and we have to do what's right here and we'll figure that out if we end up being in that position at the end of the day. now, the other story relating to tennis is the confirmation that un—vaccinated players, will not be allowed to compete at the australian open in the new year. there had been a lot of confusion over the restrictions with conflicting statements from australian politicians. a significant number of players remain un—vaccinated, while defending men's champion novak djokovic has not revealed his vaccination status. we have also had confirmation that the tournament will be played in front of capacity crowds in january. it's been a standout season for cameron norrie but it ended in a straight sets defeat to world number one novak djokovic at the atp finals in turin. norrie became the british number one, climbed to 12th in the world rankings and won indian wells, but was outclassed by the 20—time grand slam champion djokovic who he played for the first time. better news for britain'sjoe salisbury, and his american partner, rajeev ram. they sealed their place in the last four in the doubles. they beat colombian pair huan sebastian cabal and robert farah to maintain their 100 per—cent record in turin. "shocked, shamed and saddened", the words of cricket bosses in england and wales, who said racism is a "blight" on our game, and they "apologised un—reservedly". that's in response to azeem rafiq's testimony to the dcms select committee on tuesday. the sport's top figures met at the oval yesterday to come up with a plan of action to try and tackle the issue. we will continue to listen, to make swift and positive change to the culture of the game. we will embrace and celebrate differences everywhere, knowing that with diversity we are stronger. today is a game we discussed a series of tangible commitments to make cricket a sport where everyone feels safe and everyone is included. we will now finalise the details and publish these actions next week. our game must win back your trust. our game must win back your trust. now to football, and while it's first matches in charge today at new clubs for steven gerard at aston villa and dean smith at norwich, the start of the new era at newcastle has been delayed with eddie howe missing his side's game with brentford because of covid—19. howe tested positive during a routine test on friday, meaning that he won't be at the match that he and fans were hoping would be his first game in the newcastle dug out. he is fine, he has posted. instead assistant head coaches jason tindall and graemejones will take charge of the team at st james park. manchester city's kevin de broiner is also missing after he tested positive for covid after returning from international duty with belgium. he'll isolate for 10 days which means that he'll miss city's next three games including their key champions league tie with paris st germain on wednesday. the formula one world championship is in qatar for the first time this weekend with all eyes on whether lewis hamilton can repeat his heroics of last weekend as he looks to trim the 14—point lead of max verstappen even further. in second practice both had to settle for suporting roles behind valteri bottas who was quickest and also piere gasly. verstappen was third and lewis hamilton could only manage fourth. significantly hamilton was wearing a special helmet with the rainbow flag on it as human rights remain a contentious issue in qatar especially lg bt rights. third practice is less than three hours away. london irish beat saracens in the premiership rugby cup at the brentford community stadium. they ran in three tries in the first half to lead 21—0 at the break and then added another in the second through killian redmond. sarries responded, but london irish held on to win by 29 points to 20. it's now two wins from two for them in a competition that had a two—year absence because of the pandemic. talking of rugby, a huge day in the autumn internationals.

been a mild month, but there is change coming and it will be a shock to the system as things turned colder over the weekend. it is a beautiful start to the day in dunbar in east lothian. through the weekend there will be rain sweeping southwards and things will turn colder, all down to this weather front. that is pushing south today and tonight and by tomorrow it will have cleared the south coast. that will leave the door is open for this cold, northerly flow of air, bringing this much colder air mass by the time we get to tomorrow. enjoy the mild weather out there today if you have got it. fairly cloudy, but sunshine for northern england and wales in the afternoon. this patchy rain is clearing out of southern scotland and northern ireland. followed by sunshine and showers in scotland and northern ireland. 7 degrees in stornoway and 12 or 13 in the south. this evening and overnight that is where the weather front pushes its way off the south coast, leaving us all in the clear for colder weather tomorrow morning. most towns and cities just above freezing, but in the countryside colder than that. there will be more sunshine despite the colder weather, will be more sunshine despite the colderweather, but will be more sunshine despite the colder weather, but these northerly winds bring wintry showers to the higher ground of scotland and some hail showers in eastern and south—eastern parts of england. fewer showers further west, perhaps one or two in the irish sea coasts. feeling colder when you add on the wind chill. perhaps it is time to dig out that

remarkable and inspiring story. if it hadn't been for mere millimetres, it could have been a whole different story for farmerjonathan willis, who was impaled by his own forklift truck. we will describe it, but be warned. the three foot spike miraculously missed all his vital organs, and he's now raised thousands for the air ambulance service to say thank you to those who helped him. helen mulroy reports. it must have pushed things out of the way as it went through. this steel prong, known as a tine, used to be part ofjonathan willis' truck. the last time he saw it, it was protruding from his abdomen after he was impaled in a freak farming accident. the farmer from wisbech was unloading straw bales last december when the vehicle rolled into him. stunned wife wendy was alerted byjonathan's shouts from the yard. she called the ambulance. seeing somebody stand up there with quite a chunky spike coming right through their body, anybody would have said there is no way anybody could possibly survive this. and, unfortunately, that is how i felt. it was terrifying, it was really terrifying. emergency services, including the air ambulance, arrived within seven minutes. but it took an hour for the teams to cut the tine from the forklift, withjonathan awake and standing throughout. jonathan was then transferred to addenbrooke's hospital by road ambulance, with paramedics having to take the weight of the one stone tine throughout the hour—long journey. when he arrived, a team of 30 worked on removing it during a seven—hour operation. i couldn't quite believe what i was hearing, i thought i'd misheard. the spike had somehow found this amazing trajectory, i have described it as eye of the needle trajectory. yes, it transfixed a few parts of the intestine, but it really missed all of the vital structures, including those major blood vessels. an extraordinary situation, really. that was dr emmanuel huguet a surgeon from addenbrooke's hospital, ending that report. and we'rejoined now byjonathan willis and dr nathan howes from the east anglian ambulance service who helped to save his life. jonathan, have you had a chance to say thank you in person? yes.

clashes in the netherlands over new covid measures — as restrictions are tightened across mainland europe. and a clampdown in austria — a full lockdown from monday and compulsory vaccinations by february. we the jury find the defendant, kyle h rittenhouse, not guilty. us gun culture back under scrutiny after a teenager who shot dead two people during racial unrest is cleared of murder. there's growing concern over the whereabouts of chinese tennis star peng shuai. new pictures are posted of the missing player overnight, but the us and united nations are among those calling for verifiable proof she is safe. ed sheeranjoins a host of stars and performers this year's children in need — nearly $40 million was raised on the night. good morning. it's a mild start to the day today and most places should see quite a bit of dry weather but things are turning much colder through the weekend and we're going to see a chilly northerly wind developing tomorrow. i'll have all the details here on bbc breakfast. it's saturday, november 20. our top story — dutch police have shot and wounded at least two people after rioting erupted in rotterdam over new covid—i9 measures. coronavirus restrictions are being tightened in the netherlands and a number of other eu countries in response to rising case numbers. austria faces a full lockdown from monday and compulsory vaccinations from next year. tim muffett has the latest. protesters in rotterdam responding to the partial lockdown imposed in the netherlands. police used water cannon and fired warning shots. at least two people were injured. restrictions here began on monday and are set to be in place for another two weeks at least. like many countries in europe, the netherlands has seen a sharp rise in covid cases. in austria, a 20—day lockdown will start this monday. people will be asked to work from home and non—essential shops will close. in february, covid vaccinations will become compulsory. what we experience in austria right now is, in my view, an unfortunate collusion of the fact that we have a fairly low vaccination rate in the population and that the waning of immunity hits austria now, six months after we started our vaccination programme, and that is unfortunately right at the beginning of the winter season, where people are moving indoors. in germany, covid cases are also rising sharply. the government is set to introduce restrictions for unvaccinated people in areas where hospital admissions exceed a certain level. as for the prospect of a full lockdown, the german government says nothing has been ruled out. in the uk yesterday, just over 44,000 new people tested positive for coronavirus. over the week, there was a 13% increase in cases compared to the previous seven days. between the 9th and 15th of november, just over 6000 people were admitted to hospital with covid — that's a fall of 4.5% compared to the previous seven days. at the moment, the uk is not witnessing the surge in cases being seen in some other countries. we have, i'm sure, the highest levels of overall immunity in europe — it's over 90% amongst adults and approaching that level in children as well now — so that is quite a different situation to many countries in europe, including austria and germany, who did not have as bad first waves or second waves and did not have the significant delta wave yet, either. there are renewed calls for people to get boosterjabs if they are eligible in the hope the uk can avoid the tougher restrictions being imposed elsewhere. tim muffett, bbc news. presidentjoe biden has said he is "angry" after a teenager who shot dead two people, was cleared of murder. kyle rittenhouse argued that he'd acted in self—defence when he killed two men and wounded another during racialjustice protests last year. our washington correspondent, nomia iqbal, reports. the defendant will rise to face - the jury and harken to its verdicts. a dangerous vigilante, or someone acting in self—defence? after 26 hours, thejury decided kyle rittenhouse's fate. we the jury find the defendant, kyle h rittenhouse, not guilty. the 12 men and women of the jury accepted the teenager's claim he killed out of fear for his safety. somehow, some way, those 12jurors found that he was innocent. outside court, the political divisions this case has caused were clear. you attack me, i have the right to defend myself, that's what kyle was on trial for, that's what he was acquitted for. are you telling me that if two guys come up to you and accost you, you can't defend yourself? that's what was on trial today. there is no way in a land of law where a person can shoot three people, kill two of them, and be acquitted. there'sjust no way. the shooting happened against the backdrop of nationwide protests over racism and police brutality, following the murder of george floyd. in kenosha, another black man, named jacob blake, had been shot by police seven times, and on the third night of riots kyle rittenhouse entered the city. he said he came to provide security. in a series of confrontations, he shot dead joseph rosenbaum, who had chased after him into this car park. he then killed another man, who ran after rittenhouse, thinking he was an active shooter. a third man survived. police later arrested the teenager and charged him with murder. at his trial, there were tears and a controversial defence by his team, in regards to the shooting of jacob blake. other people in this community have shot somebody seven times and it's been found to be ok. my client did it four times in three—quarters of a second to protect his life from mr rosenbaum. i'm sorry, but that's what happened. this not guilty verdict is seen as a referendum on an issue that polarises americans beyond kenosha, and that is the issue of gun ownership. for many conservative groups, kyle rittenhouse is now seen as a hero. but for many liberal groups, he is the face of a gun culture out of control, and they are worried by being cleared of the charges what it might mean now for future protests. can americans turn up with a gun but not face any consequences? nomia iqbal, bbc news, kenosha. in response to the case, presidentjoe biden said: he went on to say: colin pitchfork, the man who killed two teenagers in the 1980s, is back in prison less than two months after being released. it's understood he breached the terms of his licence, but did not commit any further offences. he served 33 years for killing 15—year—olds lynda mann and dawn ashworth in leicestershire. single—use plastic plates, cutlery and polystyrene cups could all be banned in england. billions of these items, most of which are plastic, are used in england every year, but only 10% are recycled. a public consultation on the issue begins today. campaign groups have welcomed the proposals, but say more can be done. i think very much we are welcoming these proposals, but they do take time. an important point is that while we need government to take action, and they will if they have two, we actually don't have to wait for government regulations. business is able to make these changes, and we are seeing some of that happening under the uk plastics pact, but of course it needs to go further. almost £40 million has been raised by the bbc children in need appeal. the show was jam—packed with the usual comedy sketches and star—studded performances — as our entertainment correspondent, colin paterson, reports. for the first time in its 41—year history, children in need took

at 2:50 tomorrow afternoon. here's sarah with a look at this morning's weather. see how it looks for the day ahead if you're planning day outside. this is the picture this morning in aberdeen, some beautiful glimpses of blue sky around there, still reasonably mild at the moment, but things are going to turn colder. rain on the way, showers pushed in from the north. in aberdeen yesterday, we saw temperatures up to 17 celsius, about 10 degrees above i7 celsius, about 10 degrees above average for aberdeen yesterday. fast forward a week later, we are looking at temperatures no higher than about 4 degrees layer. a significant drop on the way. the high pressure bringing is all that weather a sitting to the south now, bringing the colder air mass right across the uk. cold northerly winds are developing, quite a wind chill. one last mild they across england and wales, some sunny spells for a link wales. scotland and northern ireland after the morning cloud and rain, there will be sunshine and blustery showers. as we move through this evening and overnight, mild air to get swept away to the south, so we are all in the colder clearer air first thing tomorrow morning. temperatures in our towns and cities will be a few degrees above freezing. a frosty start sunday morning for many, particularly across the northern half of the uk. through tomorrow, more sunshine than today despite the weather around. rain and perhaps some hail showers across parts of eastern england. generally fewer showers further west, but perhaps one or two around irish sea coast. for most places we could see double figures towards the south—west. perhaps something a little bit less cold on monday around that high pressure. a week with a front on monday pushes rain and a few spots of rain into scotland. england and wales having a dry and sunny day. we are looking at a return to some frosty mornings as we head through the middle part of the week. notjust for us but mist and fog as possible through the mornings as well. many places getting into double figures at the beginning of the week, but then it turns colder from midweek on words. aberdeenjust 4 degrees turns colder from midweek on words. aberdeen just 4 degrees by the time we get to friday. a few have got the mild and the doubt weather for odd last day to day, get out and enjoy it. —— mild weather. as we've been hearing this morning, some european countries are introducing tighter covid restrictions as cases of the virus escalate. let's take you through what this means in the uk and across the continent. latest figures from the office of national statistics suggests that in england last week, i in 65 people had the virus — that's lower than the previous week. it was also down in wales, with i in 55 infected. cases were broadly level in scotland with i in 95 people with covid. the trend is said to be uncertain in northern ireland, with i in 65 people infected. so, while uk daily cases relative to the population haven't surged, elsewhere in europe, the netherlands and austria, have imposed different forms of lockdown as their infection rates have soared. we can unpick this with chris smith and linda bauld. good morning to you both. linda, can you tell us why mainland europe is seeing this increase in cases? then we will talk about how various countries are reacting.- we will talk about how various countries are reacting. there seems to be a number— countries are reacting. there seems to be a number of— countries are reacting. there seems to be a number of different - to be a number of different potential factories. to be a number of different potentialfactories. we to be a number of different potential factories. we can't point to one thing. this first thing i will stay is if we look back to the middle of the year when delta became dominant in the uk, by the end of june accounted for the vast majority of our cases, many countries in europe were faced with delta a little bit lighter and some of them opened up slightly later than we did. the second point is that our differences in vaccines. there are high levels of non—uptake in some european countries. the other thing is, dosing regime is for setting vaccines, there is shorter durations between first and second doses meaning waning immunity might be hitting those communities hearties. the uk has had high levels of infection in the past, therefore it is likely we have built up high levels of immunity than, for example, germany. the final point, although this is probably less easy to defend, that may be a weather feature here in that some of the country is particularly hard hit are really in the colder months now and people are interacting indoors. those are all potential explanations.- those are all potential explanations. those are all potential ex-lanations. , ., , explanations. chris, what people will be concerned _ explanations. chris, what people will be concerned about - explanations. chris, what

as from february, - couple of months ago. is interesting that austria, as from february, has | that austria, as from february, has become the first country in europe to make it compulsory for people to have a vaccination. that raises all sorts of questions, and it's something, given the way things have gone here and the resistance that some people have had the vaccines, it is likely to be resisted in austria as well. it's a difficult psychological one of our people, isn't it? psychological one of our people, isn'tit? ., ., ., , , isn't it? behaviourally, it is complicated. _ isn't it?

need to be isn't it? behaviourally, it is- complicated. we need to be careful to try to understand what it means in at the austrian context. mandating a vaccine means different things around the world. in the us, it means a state has a duty to provide and make it available on what is allowed under health insurance. in italy, some childhood vaccines are mandated. how that is enforced differs. if this really is everybody has to get it, that is quite unprecedented for a whole population in europe. we do not already for setting occupational groups, we are doing that in the uk for example full stop so it's tough and i think we will watch what is happening in austria with interest. in terms of the literature on this, there is a group of people who will be very resistant to this. in fact, the evil view mandating, if it really is a proper foundation, as something that sets them up against taking the vaccine more vehemently than they currently are. it other words, it will harden their resistance was up in the uk, we should continue to provide good information and answer people plus 's questions, and really use that as the mechanism to encourage vaccine take—up, including the boosters. that idea of dividing people and making their views more entrenched. in austria they have announced a partial lockdown for people who are unvaccinated. again, you are marginalising people, but obviously there is a reason why the are doing it. . ., ., , there is a reason why the are doing it. what i found interesting about 0stia's proposals _ it. what i found interesting about 0stia's

transmissibility for ay4.2, there is evidence that air is slightly more transmissible that even the original delta. i think ay4.2 now accounts for about 14.7% of cases sequence in england, so it is catching up. when you look at if it evades vaccines, that box is green. in other words, there is no evidence at the moment that the vaccines we are using is not effective in the face of ay4.2. in the world study all the studies suggest there to protect against severity, hospitalisation and mortality. i think brian can be reassured that the vaccines he has received, even with this new member of the

it sounds obvious that we would always be listed. and ruth wants to know the answer to this. this is probably one of the most common questions of the day, to other try to be brief. we keep forgetting that vaccines do help prevent infection. with one with people involved in the ons infection a survey looking at the delta group, the vaccines were still between 65-80% the vaccines were still between 65—80% effective in preventing you from getting infected. but you can have breakthrough infections, that means that means that the vaccinated person can still pass it on. although they may be carrying the virus for a shorter period, that is the important thing to say. there are studies that suggest that even within a household double but soon he people are less likely to pass it on to their household members, those risks are registered. vaccines do not completely eliminate transmission, but they do reduce risks. that's like countries around europe have asked people to show proof of

which i'm very excited about.— very excited about. i can tell. what's sarah, i'm with you. we have tea for a reason, we don't need liquefied fit. ~ ., , fit. we will get there eventually. let's enjoy _ first, we need to talk about sport and this mystery, which is not a joyful mystery. it is really concerning. we are talking about peng shuai, the tennis player, and a lot of people saying we need to know. there has been another development overnight, and she is one of the biggest stars in china. that is the image that has been shared by thousands of different people, seen around the world millions of times. and yet still no direct contact between the player and the various authorities. this is why it seems so strange. overnight, three photos of peng shuai were posted on a wechat account under her name with the caption "happy weekend". she can be seen here posing with a cat, and holding a panda soft toy and yet no reference at all to the story that has got and the authenticity of the post on the chinese instant messaging service, has been questioned just like an email which surfaced earlier in the week. peng hasn't been seen since she made sexual assault allegations against a former china vice—premier two weeks ago. the head of the women's tennis association told the bbc that he is "very, very concerned about her" and that there would be no tennis events in china next year without proof that peng is safe. world number one novak djokovic says he supports the move. i am world number one novak d'okovic says he supports the move._ he supports the move. i am really lad that he supports the move. i am really glad that there — he supports the move. i am really glad that there was _ he supports the move. i am really glad that there was a _ he supports the move. i am really glad that there was a kind - he supports the move. i am really glad that there was a kind of- glad that there was a kind of initiated reaction from both the atp and wta chairman and it is important because this is horrifying. i mean, a person is missing. i don't know what i say previously if it is true or not, that she is found, and i really hope so. this is necessary for us to take whatever action. i heard just now that the wta is willing to pull out from china. with all the tournaments unless this is resolved, i support it 100%. novak d'okovic resolved, i support it 100%. novak djokovic echoing _ resolved, i support it 100%. novak djokovic echoing the _ resolved, i support it 100%. novak djokovic echoing the thoughts i resolved, i support it 100%. novak djokovic echoing the thoughts of l djokovic echoing the thoughts of players across the world. now, the other story relating to tennis is the confirmation that un—vaccinated players will not be allowed to compete at the australian open in the new year. there had been a lot of confusion and conflicting statements over the restrictions. latest figures show 80 of the top 100 men's players have been vaccinated against covid—i9. defending champion novak djokovic has not revealed his vaccination status and the wta is yet to provide figures for its female players. we have also had confirmation that there will be capacity crowds at the tournament in january. shocked, shamed and saddened, the words of cricket bosses in england and wales who said racism is a "blight" on our game and they "apologised un—reservedly". that's in response to azeem rafiq's testimony to the, dcms select committee on tuesday. the sport's top figures met at the oval yesterday to come up with a plan of action, to try and tackle the issue. we will continue to listen, to make swift and positive change to the culture of the game. we will embrace and celebrate differences everywhere, knowing that with diversity we are stronger. today, as a game, we discussed a series of tangible commitments to make cricket a sport where everyone feels safe and everyone is included. we will now finalise the details and publish these actions next week. our game must win back your trust. now, as football returns after the world cup qualifiers it's the first day in charge today for steven gerard at aston villa and dean smith at norwich and tomorrow, rangers' new boss giovanni van bronkhurst will at least be watching his new team against hibs in the league cup from the stands, but at newcastle their new manager eddie howe tested positive for covid—i9 yesterday and so will miss this afternoon's match against brentford as he now isolates for ten days. he says he's feeling fine so assistant head coaches jason tindall and graemejones will take charge of the team at st james park. manchester city's kevin de broiner is also missing after he tested positive for covid after returning from international duty with belgium. he'll isolate for 10 days which means that he'll miss city's next three games, including their key champions league tie with paris st germain on wednesday. the formula one world championship is in qatar for the first time this weekend, with all eyes on whether lewis hamilton can repeat his heroics of last weekend, as he looks to trim the i4—point lead of max verstappen even further. in second practice both had to settle for suporting roles behind valteri bottas who was quickest, and also piere gasly. verstappen was third and lewis hamilton could only manage fourth. significantly hamilton was wearing a special helmet with the rainbow flag on it as human rights remain a contentious issue in qatar, especially lg bt rights. third practice is less than three hours away. tonight the history—making journey of fallon sherrock continues as she takes on former world champion peter wright in the quarter finals of the grand slam of darts. she s gone further at this event than any woman in history, and this is the latest in a growing list of ground—breaking milestones for sherrock in the last year. before this week's event i went to meet her. wherever she goes to play now, fallon sherrock will be revered after her trailblazing year. my turn. her historic run at this week's grand slam of darts following on from her success earlier this autumn when she became the first woman to reach a televised pdc final at the nordic masters, and this after becoming the first woman to win a main draw match of the 2020 pdc world championship, when she got to the third round. just so over the moon. like, i was just speechless because i didn't know kind of how i felt. like, there were so many emotions running through — i did not know whether to laugh, cry, you know, dance. the atmosphere was just, like, electric. it was just amazing. it's totally changed now. the men respect the women and stuff like that. i mean, granted, i mean, a lot of the time, they were like "we don't want to lose to a woman". now it's "we don't want to lose to that player", like they're are a good player. it has helped fallon that her twin sister felicia has also played darts since they first gave it a go 11 years ago. there's always a competitive side and it's like "ok, right, so i know if i don't do well, she is going to do well" and she has always wanted to beat me and i'm always wanting to beat her, so we've always had, like, the killer instinct, so it has always helped, like, when we go into competitions. i love the pressure. you have the adrenaline going and it's like "right, you have the killer instinct". she has taken any pressure this year in her stride and says her secret is walking, escaping to the countryside. ithink it is like, you know, like me time. like, i quite like, you know, just, you know, just getting away and just kind of having time to yourself and not having, you know, people around you because obviously my sport is very much people—oriented, you've always have people looking at you, you're always playing, there's always someone there, so it is really nice to sit there, get out and have your own time. and you have to be careful around trees, fallon, haven't you? because you ended up one once. yeah, we were in switzerland for a dart open, like, competition and there was about 1.5 hours break between the finals and everyone was like "oh, dare you to go up the tree! dare you to go up the tree!" so i was like "if you're gonna dare me, i'm gonna go up the tree" so yeah, no, i climbed up the tree and got stuck. how high? probably — i would not say right up high but i got kind of... enough to give them all kittens? and then i tried to get down and i couldn't get down, and someone had to literally come and help me down. like, i couldn't get down. and this was before a final? yeah! she will be staying away from the trees, then, before tonight's quarter—final but whatever happens, now her legacy is set. fallon's achievements have already hit targets way beyond the normal boundaries of the sport. she's changed the whole image of this game, opening it up to girls and players that would never have thought about taking it up before. i thought it was a bar thing — people go to bars, throw darts. i did not quite think of it as a proper sport. now, i would actually consider doing it more as a hobby because it looks quite nice and relaxing. just because boys are playing, i it does not mean that girls cannot. girls know that if they play, _ they can become world champ as well. not many twins do sports together but her and her sister do so it was like like me and freja thought, "oh, that's cool", so we'll do it together. it made it, like, better to be able do it because, obviously, we wanted to do it but it made us want to do it more because we have seen that they do it and, like, they enjoy it together. fallon's made a massive impact. as you can see from the academy, straight away, the girls are flooding in. before, we'd have probably had dribs and drabs — one or two come, play a little bit. now they're all really keen. they want to be that — they want to be the queen of the palace themselves! and thanks to the likes of fallon sherrock, those coming into the sport now, like she did when she was 16, can aim straight for the top. i never thought a woman could make, you know, a living playing darts and then obviously, as times changed, women have got more opportunities, the prize money has then got better and we've got the opportunities to play in with the men, which has given us, like, a massive thing and now, women can actually make a living playing darts. just brilliant, and maybe it was meant to be and i asked what she would have done if not darts, and she said she would have gone into forensic science.

blue skies for now with sunshine around, but the weather will be changing over the weather will be changing over the weekend. it has been really mild for much of november so far but winter is around the corner. ten days until the start of the meteorological winter and it is turning colderfor all of meteorological winter and it is turning colder for all of us. meteorological winter and it is turning colderfor all of us. a change in the weather over the next 24 change in the weather over the next 2a hours or so. this weather front is sweeping south tonight and into tomorrow. by the time we get to tomorrow. by the time we get to tomorrow morning we will have the cold air mass right across the uk and these chilly northerly winds as well. forthe and these chilly northerly winds as well. for the rest of the day across england and wales you have got quite a bit of clout and there is sunshine in northern england and into north wales. patchy rain is clearing out of southern scotland and northern ireland and that will be followed by sunshine and a few blustery showers early on. temperatures between seven to ii early on. temperatures between seven to 11 towards the south, but some of the showers will be quite heavy with gusty winds up to 45 miles an hour blowing in the showers. by the time we get to tomorrow morning we are all in the clearer skies. temperatures a few degrees above freezing for some of us, but in the rural sports cold and misty. we are expecting some frost tomorrow morning, particularly in scotland. tomorrow, more sunshine than today, but wintry across the mountains of scotland and we could see some hail and showers in eastern england as well. fewershowers and showers in eastern england as well. fewer showers further west, perhaps a few in the irish sea coast. temperatures between seven to ii coast. temperatures between seven to 11 degrees, but add on the wind chill and it will feel colder than that, particularly in the east. high pressure is with us on monday and something a little less cold and a weak front that will bring cloud to scotland and northern ireland. but much of the uk keeps the clear skies, so sunshine and it will feel cooler than it has done recently. seven to ii cooler than it has done recently. seven to 11 degrees and a brisk breeze in east anglia and through the english channel as well. we are expecting a return of
