fa cup final in a row. good morning. the warmest day of the year so far on good friday with temperatures soaring to 23.1; degrees in london. today it will be cooler, there will be sunshine and showers and strong winds developing across the north west. all the details throughout the programme. it's monday 18th april. our main story. russian air strikes have hit multiple targets across ukraine — it's as residents of the eastern luhansk region are being urged to evacuate immediately. meanwhile, ukrainian forces are holding on in the besieged port city of mariupol — that's despite ignoring demands from the kremlin to surrender. sean dilley reports. mariupol has not yet fallen — technically. ukrainian troops who had until recently defended the now—occupied streets are held up in the city's vast azovstal steelworks, despite an ultimatum by president putin's forces to surrender no later than yesterday. russian troops know that ukrainians are waiting inside, ready to welcome them with guerrilla tactics in their last stand for the strategic port city. as the rockets continue to fall across the country, a parallel information war rages. this unverified picture of the russian black sea flagship the moskva — which sank on thursday — was posted online. ukraine claimed they struck it with two neptune missiles. russia insisted it had nothing to do with their enemy, and that a fire caused an explosion that would eventually cause it to capsize while being towed to port. meanwhile, shelling continues across the country, with president putin's forces intensifying activities in the east. in kharkiv, ukrainian health officials say five people were killed and 13 injured after russian forces shelled buildings in the centre of the city. translation: you know| when a dog hears a bang, it starts to tremble all over — even if the noise is far away? i'm like that now. everything — every part of me — is trembling. authorities in mykolaiv say shelling has been unyielding. rockets fell one after the other as ukrainian forces tried to block russia's attempts to advance on nearby odesa. translation: we are doing. everything to ensure defence. we are in constant contact with partners. we are grateful to those who really help with everything they can. but those who have the weapons and ammunition we need and delay their provision must know that the fate of this battle also depends on them. the fate of the people who can be saved. explosions. the country's leadership is bracing itself for more attacks today, but talks have already started on what happens when the shelling stops. ukraine's president volodymyr zelensky has spoken to the head of the international monetary fund — it's expected the country will ask the imf and g7 countries for $50 billion to help it rebuild. but the reality is no reconstruction work is possible until the conflict ends. sean dilley, bbc news. danjohnson is in lviv this morning. dan, it seems ukrainian voices remain defiant in mariupol. the sins are remain defiant in mariupol. the signs are they _ remain defiant in mariupol. tue: signs are they ignored remain defiant in mariupol. tte: signs are they ignored that surrender deadline that was laid down by russia yesterday. president zelensky said his forces would fight on, that they were still equipped and still defending the steel plant which has become the scene of some of the most intense battles of the last few days with russian forces repeatedly trying to overrun that factory so they can complete their takeover of mariupol and that seems to be white now the mayor of the city, where one of his aides, has said russian forces are now controlling entry and exit from the city, stopping people coming and going, and requiring that people queue for a pass in order to move around different districts of the city. the claim from the city council is that that is part of russia's attempt to control movement of people, just select who goes, who stays, who may be hiked after rush of questioning, he may have their phones removed, and this is all believed to be a part of russia's tim to cover alleged war crimes that the city council say have been committed against a population of mariupol. the battle there continues a. ~ ., ., mariupol. the battle there continues a. . , a. we had about the explosions felt in kharkiv. what _ a. we had about the explosions felt in kharkiv. what more _ a. we had about the explosions felt in kharkiv. what more do _ a. we had about the explosions felt in kharkiv. what more do we - a. we had about the explosions felt in kharkiv. what more do we know| in kharkiv. what more do we know about shelling in other parts of the country?

kharkiv has been one of the cities that has also come under- cities that has also come under intense relentless bombardment. we know there were five people killed last night in the nude russian shelling of that city. other places across ukraine have also come under renewed attack —— in renewed shelling. there is an edginess, and their business across the country, even though so many people are trying to get on with life as normal to some degree. president zelensky last night said he really needed the flow of weapons to continue to come to the country, otherwise his fear was that cities like mariupol would be wiped out by the russians. there is a report this morning that president zelensky has invited the french president emmanuel macron to come to ukraine to see for himself evidence of what president zelensky saysis evidence of what president zelensky says is genocide that has been carried out by the russians under the areas they have occupied for the last few weeks. no report on whether the french president will take up that opportunity to visit kyiv like so many other international leaders have done so already.— heavy shelling has blighted parts of ukraine since the conflict began two months ago — and in the southern city of mykolaiv, many people have fled for their safety. the city's governor says the region has been under continuous rocket attack over the weekend — and with water supplies cut the elderly residents left behind are forced to fend for themselves, as catherine byaruhanga reports. what's left of homes and lives. living rooms, kitchens all destroyed. the people here were lucky to have survived after a shell hit their apartment block in the early hours of the morning in march. 72—year—old tatiana was there asleep. translation: it was so scary being there. | so scary. tatiana is here alone — her husband and daughter died before the war. she says, despite the constant shelling, she can't leave. translation: the bomb shelter is far away, - and i have no ability to go there. my health doesn't let me go anywhere. and where would i go? we will be sitting and waiting for peace. peace is the most important thing nowadays. those who can have fled this neighbourhood in mykolaiv in southern ukraine. but for those who've had to stay, their lives have moved underground. this bunker is the last place of refuge for so many of those left behind — and that's usually the elderly. it's damp and dark. they have to use these buckets as toilets. and over here is where they sleep. at the start of the war, there were over 20 families here, but now it's just four women. anastasia, ludmilla, nina and galina keep each other company through the difficulty and loneliness of this war. they go out to try and find food and water, but the air—raid sirens go off so often they spend most of their day in darkness. translation: my heart hurts. i have hypertension and diabetes. i can't stay here for a long time as my legs hurt. i need to walk a lot, but i can't. i need to have a good diet, but it's impossible now. this is one of galina's last tablets. she has enough for three weeks, but after that she's not sure what will happen. but the stories of the elderly here in mykolaiv are repeated across ukraine. translation: we were told, - if you hear a siren, you should go to the basement to hide. but we don't know whether this will save us, or we will die here. catherine byaruhanga, bbc news, mykolaiv. people in scotland no longer need to wearfacemasks in indoor public places from today. it's the final part of the uk to remove the legal requirement, which has been replaced by public health advice. the scottish government has advised people to continue wearing face coverings while covid case numbers remain high. meanwhile, police in scotland are investigating a complaint about the first minister, nicola sturgeon, not wearing a face—covering. video footage on social media appears to show ms sturgeon without a mask inside a barber's, despite it being a legal requirement until today. the snp said she realised within a few seconds, and put herface covering on. more than 10,000 people who signed up to help deliver covid—i9 vaccinations have now taken permanent roles with the nhs in england. those who have chosen to stay in the health service include former cabin crew members, gym managers, and chefs. nhs england said they would help tackle the backlog caused by the pandemic. the chinese city of shanghai has registered three covid—related deaths — the first to be officially acknowledged since 2020. health officials said the victims were aged between 89 and 91, and unvaccinated. the authorities have announced a new round of mass testing, meaning the city's strict lockdown will continue for a fourth week. in recent years a number of celebrities have reclaimed their birth names after years of anglicising them. it's an issue many people from ethnic—minority backgrounds are faced with whilst growing up or when looking forjobs. reporter noor nanji has been to meet one lady who's taking back her name. ifelt like i had to fit in — like i needed to keep up with the joke and keep up with people, like, calling me by the wrong name. changing your name to fit in? i know a bit about that. our reporter nina nanji... nina nanji. nina nanji, bbc news. that's actually not my name, though. my real name is noor, but at work i chose to go by nina because so many people were getting it wrong — and that got me wondering whether other people have done similar things. i'm off to meet chinemelum, who's been abbreviating her name for most of her life. so when i was in year three, ijoined a new school and they called me up to the front and they're like, "what's your name? " and i said, "chinemelum," and i was really standing there proudly. and the teacher was like, "what was that?" i said, "chinemelum." and she was like, to the whole school, "if you don't know how to pronounce that, just call her chicken lemon." and from that day, literally everybody was calling me chicken lemon. i just felt a bit small, like nobody was taking me seriously. like, i needed to keep up with the joke and keep up with people, like, calling me by the wrong namejust so, like, my friends wouldn't leave me, basically. after that, she decided to go by mel. it's all just rooted in a lot of discrimination and prejudice, i guess, and, like, people's opinions towards people of colour in general. i feel like a lot of the time when people pronounce my name correctly first time i feel so happy, but then i feel like that's the bare minimum — like, that's my name! so i really feel like people should put more of an effort into it. she's not the only one. this is celebrity chef tony singh. his real name is rajinder, but he never uses that. i asked him whether using tony had made it easier to get ahead. i've never thought of it as easier or more difficult, because when you turn up to work, you can't hide who you are, especially being a sikh. i think, yes, as an obstacle for people if they have a foreign—sounding name. to some people, it might be something to say — "well, we don't want anybody that's not like us," or... whatever reason it is, which it shouldn't be, i think it can be a challenge if you're applying forjobs or filling out forms. the human resources body the cipd says companies need to take a zero—tolerance approach to discrimination. it's completely unacceptable that candidates should feel they need to change their name in order to avoid discrimination. organisations need to have transparent and fair processes. however, we do know, in the last couple of years that with high—profile events, debates and protests like black lives matter, that race inclusion has firmly been placed as a spotlight within organisations. i've recently decided to reclaim my real name. so has chinemelum, who's also set up a food blog called — wait for it... chicken lemon! i wanted to change the narrative of what it was and, like, that was a big trauma, i think, and now it's something i can laugh at instead of, like, thinking bad about it. she told me why she's going back to her real name. that's, like, my identity, that's my pride. it's my country and my culture and my language. ifeel like names have power, and i'd be losing a lot of that power if i kept going by mel, basically. i couldn't have said it better myself!

"johnson led the boozy party" is the paper's headline, reporting claims from what it calls "no 10 insiders" that the prime minister poured the drinks at a leaving do during lockdown. like several papers, the sun features a picture of the duchess of cambridge attending the easter sunday service in windsor, but the paper's lead story focuses on the sussexes. it says harry and meghan have hired a bodyguard who used to protect former us president barack obama, as they continue a legal battle over their security. shall we look at a couple of stories from inside? t shall we look at a couple of

son have created a big—screen film about a brave spitfire pilot without the enormous budget. some of the props were homemade in their garden shed — but, through the magic of editing, they say you'll never be able to tell. simon spark watched them at work. the magic of cinema, where little bits are shown on screen and our minds fill in the rest. like these cockpit scenes from spitfire over berlin — a second film release from lincolnshire father—and—son film—makers tin hat productions. because on their drive is the actual spitfire cockpit used — put together in their garden shed during lockdown. the builders merchants were still working and operating, so i got timber delivered here and then, in the garden shed, built a spitfire over sort of three months. i built a big gimbal, as well, that it sits on so it can pivot around and the actors can kind of look as though they're actually flying. it bolts onto the spitfire underneath. it takes four people — one on each corner of the spitfire — to handle it, so you can imagine that's not light. it probably weighs about as much as a mini. he laughs. so callum shouts out instructions like "banking left", "banking right", and we chuck the spitfire around accordingly! so inside the spitfire here, you've got the instrument panel, which is kind of made up of kind of original dials and stuff. we bought this on ebay, someone was selling. we've also got here the yoke. over on this side here you've got the landing gear, and over this side you've got the throttle and that sort of thing. it's not the first time bits of a plane have been assembled for their films. and action! this was the lancaster in their first feature—length film lancaster skies — filmed at that time in a converted cow shed — but that took them five years to complete. i hear you're a spitfire pilot. so while dad andy was building bits of spitfire in his shed, callum was learning how to do visual effects upstairs on his computer. this film is a more scaled—back story about a lone pilot with the raf photo reconnaissance unit, whose mission was to provide photographic intelligence for the allies. but local lad archie still got a part. so i think it was from when they started drinking in my mum and dads pub, which is just down the road, and then the relationship kind of built from there. and that's solely how i mainly got the role in spitfire. so we hope we haven't spoilt the magic for you — just impressed you with a father and son's innovation. look out for a limited cinema release next month, and then a release on streaming services injune. simon spark, bbc news. fantastic. i love that. time now to get the news, travel and weather where you are. good morning from bbc london. i'm frankie mccamley. rail services across london continue to be affected by engineering works this easter weekend. the biggest impact has been the closure of parts of the west coast main line with no trains travelling south into london. many tube lines are also closed. while some have critised the timing of the closures, network rail says the complex project has been planned for more than two years. workers who clean trains for a number of train operators are to stage 11 days of strikes in a dispute over pay. members of the rmt union who look after lines including thameslink, eurostar and southeastern services will walk out from 27th april to 7th may. the rmt is calling for wages to be increased and for cleaners to receive company sick pay and free travel. the number of prominent women in ourjustice system is growing, but those from diverse backgrounds are still facing big obstacales to try and get to the bar. nneka akudolu had to overcome hurdles at the start of her career in law when she fell pregnant at university but she was recently made a qc, only the sixth black woman in the uk to do so. what people need to see is the possibilities beyond any obstacles, because i didn't really have a good academic record and everyone sort of tended to think i wasn't going to see it through, and... and, quite frankly, i sort of thrived on that adversity. well, if you're heading out on public transport this morning, this is how tfl services are looking right now. lots to look out for on the tube network this morning, lots of delays and part closures, so do check before you travel. onto the weather now with elizabeth rizzini. hello, good morning. we'll start off by taking a look at some of the weather watcher pictures from this weekend across the capital. of course, it's been glorious so far this bank holiday, lots of sunshine. it's been dry and temperatures have been above the average for this time of year as well and that's what's about to change today. the high pressure that has been keeping us dry has moved north eastwards allowing a cold front to go through, introducing some cloud, patchy outbreaks of rain, and some cooler feeling air. so that's what we are in today. there will be a different temperature. there will be a dip in temperature. nevertheless, it is set to stay dry, there will be a lot of sunshine around, sunny spells, really, some patchy cloud coming and going. more of a westerly wind and temperatures this time through the afternoon will peak at 15 or 16 celsius, so feeling cooler that it has been. and then as we head through the rest of the week, expect to see a few showers on tuesday. also still some sunny spells, lots of dry weather in the forecast but we will be staying in that cooler feeling air. before i go, head to our website to meet the family in east london who ring church bells. they've been explaining why they do it and how it's a bit of a workout. i'm back with the latest from the bbc london newsroom in half an hour. plenty more on our website at the usual address. now though it's back to nina and dan. hello, this is breakfast with dan walker and nina warhurst. you may remember earlier this month we spoke to vitaly shevchenko, the russia editor of bbc monitoring. he told us how worried he was for his elderly mother and his severely disabled aunt, who were still in their home in the east of ukraine. well, with the help of one breakfast viewer they've arrived safely in the uk. victoria derbyshire went to meet them. this is the moment late at night that vitaly shevchenko knew his mother alla and his auntie irina were truly safe. after a long, 35 hour, 2000 mile journey to the uk, everyone was exhausted. when i went to talk to them over the next day, vitaly revealed that with war raging and the sisters trapped in the east of ukraine, he didn't know if they'd ever get out alive. i have to be honest, it's a war out there. and there were moments when i thought, am i ever going to see them again? because when my mother told me that the fighting was getting closer, the explosions and flashes in the sky, the front lines the front lines are literally an hour's drive away from her house. i thought, well, it's difficult to extract them from that situation. the fighting is coming nearer, there are reports of explosions and shelling in different parts of ukraine. will i ever see them again? hearing about his desperate plight, a bbc breakfast viewer, and separately, a listener to bbc podcast ukrainecast, offered to help. ukrainian student anastasia arranged for an ambulance to take irina, who can't speak or sit up after having two strokes, and alla, from their home in zaporizhzhia in the east of ukraine to the rest in the east of ukraine to the west of the country. at the ukraine poland border, richard o'doherty from gloucestershire stepped in to drive them through five countries, all the way to reading. why not? you know, it's, i'm there, i've got the time, i've got the van. and loads of donations flowing in, so i've got the money. so why not? it's been a real privilege. richard had been enjoying retirement from hisjob as a deputy vice chancellor at a uk university, and travelling around eastern europe in his motor home. but since russia invaded ukraine, he'd begun to help transport refugees to safety. he says, on this journey with sisters, they shared their musical tastes. we planned for four days. it became evident quite quickly that, to do it shorter time. so, foot down, and 12 hour days. and, yeah, keeping vitaly abreast of how we getting on, and so, it was fine, actually. lots of music, we shared lots of ideas about ukraine music, which they told me to turn off! and in the end, she wanted freddie mercury. and i was listening to we are the champions and ijust thought, you know, how nice that is. alla speaks for both herself and her sister when she says what richard has done is the most incredible thing anyone has ever done for her in her entire life. and she now regards richard as family. thank you. we have almost become relatives. have you? that's the bond, that's the bond. alla says she can't believe what president putin is doing to her country. "he's not human," she says. she's left her whole life behind but is determined to return home to ukraine one day. and she's invited richard to visit. once the war is over, come and visit her. ukraine! come and visit ukraine, visit us in ukraine. we are a lovely country. glory to ukraine, we shall win. what you've done for us is unbelievable, amazing, and you quite literally saved us. i can't stress how important it is to real people, real lives, you are literally saving lives. i know you've been involved in volunteer work before the war broke out as well. you'rejust an amazing person, thank you. that's a gorgeous way to start on monday, isn't it?— that's a gorgeous way to start on monday, isn't it? isn't it? richard was 'ust monday, isn't it? isn't it? richard was just wonderful. _ monday,

about russia, thinking about all of theissues about russia, thinking about all of the issues that chelsea have had this season, battling off the pitch, the sanctions on roman abramovich have stifled the club, but thomas tatchell has done a really good job. —— thomas tuchel. they will come face—to—face with liverpool again after the league cup, in the fa cup. the crystal palace support was amazing in particular in wembley yesterday but it was not enough to see palace over the line. all this means chelsea will face liverpool for a second time this season at wembley, having already lost the league cup final to them. it will be chelsea's third fa cup final in the row, having lost to arsenal and leicester. matt graveling was watching. this march to the arch was a short one — an all london semi—finals saw fans from the west walk wembley way with fans from the south. palace have never won the cup, but their manager has four times and vieira's side came out strongly, with the chance of the half bringing out a diving save from mendy. two minutes later, and there was more diving on display, this time slightly less impressive from kai havertz, but chelsea needed this. a league cup final defeat and champions league exit, fuelling a fight and piling pressure on palace. 65 minutes in, and the pressure paid off. ruben loftus—cheek�*s shot grounding the eagles. there's the chelsea breakthrough. palace tried to mount a comeback, only for mount to come back and put the tie out of reach. brilliantly incisive attacking play. this was exactly the 90 minutes that chelsea needed, as they head to their third successive fa cup final in a season which has threatened a lack of silverware, they now need to overcome liverpool to secure that much needed trophy. it may also help secure a much needed owner. matt graveling, bbc news. maybe the game is then not so exciting, because we did not take too many risks. but it was not the moment to take risks today. and they changed their system, they did not allow a lot of spaces to explore, they did not allow a lot of chances so we have to be patient and keep the focus and that's what we did and i'm very happy. and chelsea's women are also into to fa cup final after beating arsenal 2—nil. after a goalless first half, guro reiten's sensational strike broke the deadlock after the break. beforeji so—yun smashed the ball in off the bar to double their lead and arsenal could find no way back. chelsea will meet manchester city in the final next month. rangers will play hearts in the final of the scottish cup after coming from behind to beat celtic 2—1. the old firm derby went to extra time at hampden and with only five minutes left celtic defender carl starfelt found his own net to send rangers through. defeat ended celtic�*s hopes of a fifth domestic treble in six seasons, they've already won the league cup and have a six—point lead in the scottish premiership. bruno guimaraes says he wants to become a newcastle legend after scoring both goals as they came from behind to beat leicester 2—1 in the premier league. the brazilian midfielder cancelled out ademola lookman's opener on the half—hour and then headed in his second in the fifth minute of stoppage time. guimaraes was newcastle's first big signing under their new owners, joining in january for £35 million. they're now 12 points clear of the relegation zone with six games left. burnley drew their first match since sean dyche's sacking. they took the lead at west ham through wout weghorst, before maxwell cornet missed a penalty to put them two up. they were made to pay as thomas soucek equalised after the break. saracens are through to the last eight of the european challenge cup, after beating cardiff by a0 points to 33. it was 16—13 at half time but sarries ran in four tries in the second half, including two from scotland international sean maitland. they'll play gloucester in the quarter—finals. rob key is the new managing director of england men's cricket. the announcement came two days afterjoe root stepped down as england captain. key played for england and kent, and has been a television pundit and commentator since retiring from the game. he takes on the role from andrew strauss, who'd stepped in on an interim basis following the sacking of ashley giles in february. and ronnie o'sullivan is through to the second

military service personnel and veterans was set up by prince harry, who's made a rare public appearance with his wife meghan. james reynolds reports. the fifth invictus games, twice postponed by the pandemic, are finally under way in the hague. more than 500 injured service people from 20 countries are taking part in a series of adaptive sports which will be held across the city. competing is a way of recovering from what are often life changing injuries. translation: taking part is more important than winning. _ the fact that you're here means that you have already overcome something. and therefore, they've already won. please welcome, my incredible husband, prince harry, the duke of sussex. the games were opened by prince harry and meghan, the duchess of sussex. harry, who twice served in afghanistan, founded the games in 2014. this event marks the couple's first joint public appearance in europe for two years. their participation began when they each hitched a ride on the back of mini cars. since then, they've turned up to cheer on competitors including a team sent by ukraine. translation: our government decided that we should be - here despite the difficult situation, and talk to the world, show that we are getting killed, but we are fighting and staying alive. meghan is expected to return to the united states later today, and the games themselves continue until friday. james reynolds, bbc news. omid scobie is the biographer of the duke and duchess of sussex and the royal editor of harper's bazaar. he's also been reporting on the games from the hague. good

community, known as bigger than prince harry and that is where he is in his element. we haven't seen them out and about doing work since he stepped away from the royal role he had, it has been mostly virtual or carefully controlled by his team so it is a great reminder of what harry does best, connecting with people, being part of the military community and representing it. as he said many times throughout the last few days, making sure that the last few days, making sure that the stories of the competitors here are heard by the media including myself attending. truth? are heard by the media

injuries, this has been a way to rehabilitate and return to society with a reason. it's often a very isolating, lonely and difficult experience, returning to civilian life after serving. and for many, invictus games as given that very necessary purpose. you speak to the people here, regardless of what country they come from, many of whom have been involved in the invictus games before, and they will credit this event as being part of that rehabilitation, that return to society. the thing that has got them back on track. some are even credit to their lives to it. so it's really important within the community, and it has grown, each iteration around and harry is very proud of that. what has been great is despite how big meghan is, she is here very much in supporting to amplify the stories around her but also cheering on harry as a wife and that's as far as it goes. ltp harry as a wife and that's as far as it noes. . . harry as a wife and that's as far as it noes. ... . ., , it

is that they are here to make sure that their voices are heard but also able to fight against a lot of the misinformation out there about the russian attacks in ukraine. they feel that a lot of the stories that are happening on the ground there are not being fully heard, they have lost fellow service men and women, parts of the invictus community in ukraine before coming over here and they have got their stories to share what they are here. it's very bittersweet and we to a lot of them, they them, they say they are present, their minds are still very much with their friends, family and comrades back at home. some have even come from the front line to be here for the week. the support they are getting not just from harry and meghan but from all of the other countries, 20 represented

to the military personnel. we actually do have mart de kruif back, hopefully we can keep the line. we will mention your nato connections and we will come to that but let's start with the games, what does it mean to you and many others to be hosting them in the netherlands? it's a great honour, to be able to host them, for me personally, i link it to my mission i did in afghanistan in 2008 and 2009 where i commanded the forces at the same time that prince harry was there. i saw the suffering, i saw the soldiers going out and showing tremendous courage to be able to do something back for

of the games, which made it relatively easy to postpone them and it is finally that we are here. we spoke to our previous guest about how ukrainian athletes have been welcomed in and looked after by prince harry, very much a focus of attention as well. give us an idea of how they are being supported at these games and what that will mean to them? lbs, these games and what that will mean to them?

of their body or they have a trauma because they fought for our freedom. and we thought it was something in the past but now freedom is still not free and people still need to fight for their own freedom who participate in the games. it makes is very emotional. even our prime minister was emotional in this featuring the opening ceremony is a very impressive. qt featuring the opening ceremony

very impressed by the operational quality of the russian forces. but what shocked me every day is the tremendous violence and brutality that is used in our backyard, within europe. so i sincerely hope that after a couple of weeks, that's what i expect, you will see some heavy fighting in the donbas region in the next few weeks but then the intensity will then slow down and maybe some kind of peace agreement. but from a military point of view, very impressed by the resilience and the quality of the ukrainian forces. to resilience and the quality of the ukrainian forces.— resilience and the

london and over the weekend many of us were in the teens and low 20s. yesterday we had a weather front coming in from the wet set for the northern ireland and the rest of the uk, more cloud, some rain and not as high temperatures. a beautiful day here in suffolk, close to the coast it is cold, but this is what you can expect if you are going to step outdoors now. between seven and nine or 10 degrees. but a particularly cold start. we have a weather front continuing to journey into the north sea taking cloud and rain with it. low pressure anchored to the north—west so here later we will see more persistent rain coming in across north—west scotland and strong winds. here is the first weather front clearing then we are into sunshine and showers, some areas of cloud, a lot of the showers will be in the wet but well scattered. locally some will be heavy. —— some will be in the west. strongest winds in the north—west. lighter winds further south. in the lighter winds further south, temperatures are widely sporting to 17, that will feel pleasant. —— 14 to 17. it will feel chilly towards the north—west with the cloud and rain. the pollen levels are high across eastern and southern parts of england, mostly about tree pollen at this stage. as we head onto the evening and overnight period, we still have showery rain coming in across the north of scotland. a lot of the showers but not all will fade, some clear skies and some patchy mist and fog forming. temperatures locally could fall very close to freezing orjust below, so a colder night this coming night than the onejust a colder night this coming night than the one just gone. so tomorrow we have got our weak weather front sinking southwards, a ridge of high pressure in the south meaning that we have got a weather front coming south producing showery rain in western scotland and northern ireland. at times across england and wales there will be areas of cloud but equally we will see some sunshine. there will be some showers locally heavy, the better very sunshine will be on the west coast and highs of nine to 16. once again through the sunshine and out of the winds which will be lighter in the north—west, it will feel quite pleasant. we will take that, thank you, carol. now, you might want to remember this name, sam bickmore. he's become one of the youngest people to achieve the highest grade in drumming. the ten—year—old has already caught the attention of famous drummers and has got some big ambitions, as navteonhal has been finding out. it's notjust his drum kit that sam has been smashing lately. he's been doing the same to expectations too. atjust ten years old, he's become one of the youngest people to pass his grade eight drumming exam, the top grade, with distinction. an achievement made even more incredible by the fact that he's only been playing for around three and a half years. i was really, like, proud and excited and everything when my mum...because she showed me her phone because the results had just came, and she showed me it, and i wasjust, like, stunned. from a very early age, it was apparent that sam seemed to have this natural ability to either rock along or tap in time to the beat of a song, either at home or in the car. and he just seemed to have this very natural sense of timing. i think it's fair to say that . neither me or gary are very musically minded or gifted. so, you know, to have sam, - who suddenly developed this skill of being able to play the drums isjust fantastic. _ and we're not quite sure where it's come from. i my drum heroes, like, the people who inspire me, i like nicko mcbrain from iron maiden and tre cool from green day, camille phillips from the subways. you know how you mentioned that you're a big fan of the band, the subways? well, we've got a little surprise for you from the subways. what, really? hi, sam, it's billy from the subways here. this isjust a message to say congratulations, and we're all so proud of everything that you're achieving. we know that you're a big fan of the band, but we're even bigger fans of you and we can't wait to see what the future holds in store for you. so keep rocking. you're absolutely incredible. what?! how was that? it's amazing! and the little boy from grantham wants to follow in the footsteps of his idols. in the future, i want to be in a band, go on world tours and everything. i just want to play on stage with people. sam is the most talented student that i've seen come through the door for his age. i can see sam playing stadiums, arenas. yeah, he's going to be a rock star. after spending the day with sam, i was hoping some of his skill may rub off on a novice. all right, ok. you know what? afterjust a few minutes of training with sam, i think now i'm as good as he is. take a look at this. navteonhal, bbc news, grantham. he was cheating! i thought he had talent! well, he has.— talent! well, he has. well, not on the drums! _ talent! well, he has. well, not on the drums! he _ talent! well, he has. well, not on the drums! he has— talent! well, he has. well, not on the drums! he has got _ talent! well, he has. well, not on the drums! he has got a - talent! well, he has. well, not on the drums! he has got a big - talent! well, he has. well, not on| the drums! he has got a big future ahead of him! time now to get the news, travel and weather where you are. good morning from bbc london, i'm frankie mccamley. 15 people have been injured on a train travelling from newcastle to london kings cross. it happened yesterday morning when the driver of the 08:20am lumo service hit the emergency brake near to peterborough. some passengers say they were thrown from their seats. others were hit by falling luggage. the operator has apologised for any distress. the news comes as rail services across london continue to be affected by engineering works this easter weekend. many tube lines are closed. but the biggest impact has been the closure of parts of the west coast main line. while some have critised the timing, network rail says the complex project has been planned for more than two years. workers who clean trains for a number of train operators are to stage 11 days of strikes in a dispute over pay. members of the rmt union who look after lines including thameslink, eurostar and southeastern services will walk out from 27 april to 7 may. the rmt says it wants cleaners to receive company sick pay and free travel. the number of prominent women in ourjustice system is growing, but those from diverse backgrounds are still facing big obstacles to try and get to the bar. nneka akudolu says she had to overcome hurdles at the start of her career. but she has recently become the sixth black woman in the uk to be made a qc. what people need to see is the possibilities beyond any obstacles, because i didn't really have a good academic record and everyone sort of tended to think i wasn't going to see it through, and... and, quite frankly, i sort of thrived on that adversity. well, if you're heading out on public transport this morning, this is how tfl services are looking right now. lots to look out for on the tube network this morning — lots of delays and part closures — so do check before you travel. onto the weather now with elizabeth rizzini. hello, good morning. we'll start off by taking a look at some of the weather watcher pictures from this weekend across the capital. of course, it's been glorious so far this bank holiday, lots of sunshine. it's been dry and temperatures have been above the average for this time of year as well and that's what's about to change today. the high pressure that has been keeping us dry has moved north eastwards allowing a cold front to go through, introducing some cloud, patchy outbreaks of rain, and some cooler feeling air. so that's what we are in today. there will be a dip in temperature. nevertheless, it is set to stay dry, there will be a lot of sunshine around, sunny spells, really, some patchy cloud coming and going. more of a westerly wind and temperatures this time through the afternoon will peak at 15 or 16 celsius, so feeling cooler that it has been. so feeling cooler than it has been. and then as we head through the rest of the week, expect to see a few showers on tuesday. also still some sunny spells, lots of dry weather in the forecast but we will be staying in that cooler feeling air. i'm back with the latest from the bbc london newsroom in half an hour. plenty more on our website at the usual address. now, though, it's back to nina and dan. bye for now. good morning, welcome to breakfast with dan walker and nina warhurst. our headlines today. fighting to the end — ukrainian says its troops in mariupol are holding on, but russian air strikes hit multiple targets across the country. scotland has become the final part of the uk to end rules requiring people to wear face coverings in indoor public spaces. chelsea will play liverpool at wembley for a second time this season after beating crystal palace to reach their third fa cup final in a row. love it or hate it — we look at the public�*s enduring relationship with diy. good morning. after most of us enjoyed a warm weekend, this week will be cooler, there will be showers at times, equally some sunshine. there will also be chilly nights. all the details throughout the programme. it's monday 18th april. our main story. russian air strikes have hit multiple targets across ukraine overnight as residents of the eastern luhansk region are being urged to evacuate immediately. meanwhile, ukrainianforces are holding on in the besieged port city of mariupol, ignoring demands from the kremlin to surrender. sean dilley reports. mariupol has not yet fallen — technically. ukrainian troops who had until recently defended the now—occupied streets are held up in the city's vast azovstal steelworks, despite an ultimatum by president putin's forces to surrender no later than yesterday. russian troops know that ukrainians are waiting inside, ready to welcome them with guerrilla tactics in their last stand for the strategic port city. but this is only one area of activity for president putin's voices. translation: , , ., voices. translation: russian troops are re arina translation: russian troops are preparing for — translation: russian troops are preparing for an — translation: russian troops are preparing for an offensive - translation: russian troops are i preparing for an offensive operation in the east of our country. it will begin in the nearfuture. they want to literally finish off and destroy the donbas, destroy everything that once gave glory to this industrial region. just as the russian troops are destroying mariupol, they want to wipe out the cities and communities. as the rockets continue to fall across the country, a parallel information war rages. this unverified picture of the russian black sea flagship the moskva — which sank on thursday — was posted online. ukraine claimed they struck it with two neptune missiles. russia insisted it had nothing to do with their enemy, and that a fire caused an explosion that would eventually cause it to capsize while being towed to port. meanwhile, shelling continues across the country, with president putin's forces intensifying activities in the east. in kharkiv, ukrainian health officials say five people were killed and 13 injured after russian forces shelled buildings in the centre of the city. translation: you know| when a dog hears a bang, it starts to tremble all over — even if the noise is far away? i'm like that now. everything — every part of me — is trembling. authorities in mykolaiv say shelling has been unyielding. rockets fell one after the other as ukrainian forces tried to block russia's attempts to advance on nearby odessa. the country's leadership is bracing itself for more attacks today, but talks have already started on what happens when the shelling stops. ukraine's president volodymyr zelensky has spoken to the head of the international monetary fund — it's expected the country will ask the imf and g7 countries for $50 billion to help it rebuild. but the reality is no reconstruction work is possible until the conflict ends. sean dilley, bbc news. we've been hearing in the last few minutes there have been at least five explosions in western lviv, near ukraine's border with poland. as yet, we don't have official word on what's happened but we will bring you more as soon as we get it. we'll get the latest from danjohnson, who is in lviv, in a few moments. in scotland, the legal requirement to wearface masks in public indoor spaces becomes guidance from today. the move had been delayed twice due to record levels of covid cases and high numbers of people in hospital with the virus. our reporterjamie mcivor is in glasgow. good to talk to you. give us an idea of how people are feeling about

certain it is going to be interesting to see just how public behaviour may change in the coming days and weeks. our people now wearing a mask because they believe it is the right thing to do, rather than because the law requires it? certainly strong public health guidance in scotland remains in place. interestingly at the railway station a few minutes away from here, i took a look around a few moments ago as many of the passengers waiting for the train, they didn't have a mass gun. indeed some of the staff didn't, either. on the other hand, many people were still wearing one —— they did not have a mask on. people may go into shock to have a look around now they don't need to wear a mask, so it may be good for business.— don't need to wear a mask, so it may be good for business. plenty

being fined for breaking lockdown rules. it's thought he'll face questions about a report in the sunday times, which claimed mrjohnson served drinks at one event. we're joined now by out our political correspondent lone wells. some of the newspapers are saying this could be the biggest week of his legal career. what do we expect to hear tomorrow?— his legal career. what do we expect to hear

he was fined for some of these events last week. in terms of what he will say, he is likely to repeat his apology and says he understands the pain that people felt at hearing about some of these events in government buildings during covid restrictions. he is likely to stress that he is getting on with the job, citing things like the uk's response to ukraine, for example. there are certainly some tory mps worried about my negative headlines, potentially even more fines to come. as you say there is lots of reporting this weekend, claims in the sunday times that at one leaving do in november 2020, for his former director of communications, he was pouring drinks and serving drinks, joining in with the drinks itself, quite a contrast to claim he only part in some of these events while he was at work. number 10 has denied he was at work. number 10 has denied he but opposition parties are looking ways to holding to account because they strongly believe he misled parliament when he did claim previously he was unaware of any events and that number 10 followed the rules at all times. big events and that number 10 followed the rules at all times.— the rules at all times. big

morning. give an idea of what you have seen and heard in the last few minutes. there was an air raid alert going here this morning at about 7:a5am local time, and i have been a number of alerts over the last few days in the early hours of the morning and we thought that would be another that may pass without incident. previous air raid alerts, there was a russian attack but ukrainian officials said they managed to shoot down missiles before they did any damage. at this morning at least four orfive explosions damage. at this morning at least four or five explosions have damage. at this morning at least four orfive explosions have been reported on the edge of the city and i can now see plumes of smoke rising from the city. we are not allowed to show you where that smoke is coming from. local ukrainian officials, the military, ask us not to do that, not at the moment, until they have ascertained exactly what has been hit. from our rooftop position, i heard jets flying overhead and actually saw a missile streaking through the sky then landing somewhere, and that is where the black smoke is now coming from. it is an marked escalation for people here in lviv, there was an attack on the edge of the city early in the conflict, on an old oil depot. there have been a number of air raid alert but no successful attacks or damage done until this morning. we are not clear is what has been hit. some of the smoke apparently is coming from close to the city's railway station but no confirmation of the target, we don't know this was a russian attack but it has to be the assumption. this is a city in the west of ukraine, we are hundreds of miles away from the really intense fighting in the east of the country. this is somewhere people thought they were safe. i was even talking to people over the weekend who had come back to lviv from poland, perhaps, where they had been staying since the start of the invasion. mothers and children who had come back to see their fathers who have remained here, they came back may be for a few days over the holiday weekend. this underlines that even here on the western edge of ukraine they are not safe from the potential of russian attacks.— of russian attacks. thank you very much for that, _ of russian attacks. thank you very much for that, the _ of russian attacks. thank you very much for that, the latest - of russian

at whitehouse farm in northumberland, 1,600 people have passed through the gates here every day over the bank holiday weekend — an attraction full of people keen to enjoy an easter day trip without covid restrictions. it's nice to have a little sense of normality back and for everybody to be mixing — still safely where possible — but, yeah, it's really nice. have you had any easter eggs today? have you had any chocolate yet? no?! you've had no chocolate? you had chocolate for breakfast, didn't you? yes. are you tricking us? yes. a good easter here can make up to 25% of the yearly revenue.

year, the easter weekend are our four busiest days of the year. that has followed that pattern for the last 25 years, so it's just amazing to see everybody. everybody�*s out, the weather's been on our

often get the chance in the last 18 months, have you, really? so it's just nice to get out when the sun's shining, and with the family and just relax. really nice to be out in the fresh air and be able to go out and do the things we used to do before lockdown two years ago. it's great. we've been locked up for a while, so it'sjust nice to be able to get. out and very rarely we've got sun i on a bank holiday, as well, so...got to make the most of it, haven't you? half an hour away at the coast, however, it was hoods up and hats on for visitors admiring st mary's lighthouse, but the bracing british weather couldn't deter the ice—cream hungry at di meo's in whitley bay. historically, everyone hits the coast, you know, it's a first sort of... everyone gets their summer clothes ready and they hit the coast. it's not quite summer—clothes weather today, but how busy have you been over the last few days? there is a buzz this year. there is definitely a buzz. even though there is a lot of unpredictable things going on, you know, there is a buzz. everyone's, like, excited to be together. easter 2022 — a return to family traditions, a chance for some well—earned treats, and the boost

newcastle to london kings cross. it happened yesterday morning when the driver of the 08:20am lumo service hit the emergency brake near to peterborough. some passengers say they were thrown from their seats. others were hit by falling luggage. the operator has apologised for any distress. the news comes as rail services across london continue to be affected by engineering works this easter weekend. many tube lines are closed. but the biggest impact has been the closure of parts of the west coast main line. while some have criticised the timing, network rail says the project has been planned for more than two years. workers who clean trains for a number of operators are to stage 11 days of strikes in a dispute over pay. members of the rmt union who look after lines including thameslink and southeastern services will walk out from 27 april to 7 may. the union says it wants cleaners to receive company sick pay and free travel. the number of prominent women in ourjustice system is growing, but those from diverse backgrounds are still facing big obstacales to try and get to the bar. nneka akudolu says she had to overcome hurdles at the start of her career. but she has recently become the sixth black woman in the uk to be made a qc. what people need to see is the possibilities beyond any obstacles, because i didn't really have a good academic record and everyone sort of tended to think i wasn't going to see it through, and... and, quite frankly, i sort of thrived on that adversity. if you're heading out on public transport this morning, this is how tfl services are looking right now. lots to look out for on the tube network this morning, lots of delays and part closures so do check before you travel. onto the weather now with elizabeth rizzini. hello, good morning. we'll start off by taking a look at some of the weather watcher pictures from this weekend across the capital. of course, it's been glorious so far this bank holiday, lots of sunshine. it's been dry and temperatures have been above the average for this time of year as well and that's what's about to change today. the high pressure that has been keeping us dry has moved north eastwards allowing a cold front to go through, introducing some cloud, patchy outbreaks of rain, and some cooler feeling air. so that's what we are in today. there will be a dip in temperature. nevertheless, it is set to stay dry, there will be a lot of sunshine around, sunny spells, really, some patchy cloud coming and going. more of a westerly wind and temperatures this time through the afternoon will peak at 15 or 16 celsius, so feeling cooler that it has been. and then as we head through the rest of the week, expect to see a few showers on tuesday. also still some sunny spells, lots of dry weather in the forecast but we will be staying in that cooler feeling air. i'm back with the latest from the bbc london newsroom in an hour. hello, this is breakfast with dan walker and nina warhurst. borisjohnson is expected to say his fine for breaking covid restrictions should not be the focus of politicians, when he addresses mps tomorrow following their return from their easter break. he will make a statement to parliament after becoming the first prime minister ever to have been sanctioned for breaking the law. so how could the week unfold for mrjohnson? we'rejoined now by sonia sodha, who is chief leader writer at the observer, and mo hussein, who is a former conservative special adviser. could monitor both of you, thank you for spending time with us on this monday morning —— good morning to both of you. the general assessment to start with, how damaging has the past week been for the prime minister, sonia? i past week been for the prime minister, sonia?— past week been for the prime minister, sonia? i think atta has been very damaging, _ minister, sonia? i think atta has been very damaging, in - minister, sonia? i think atta has been very damaging, in terms i minister, sonia? i think atta hasi been very damaging, in terms of minister, sonia? i think atta has i been very damaging, in terms of the perception of voters. we now know that the prime minister, the police believe that the prime minister broke the law at least once, that's why he has got this fixed penalty notice for attending his birthday party. we know that there are probably more fines to come. i think politically, i think we are unlikely to see conservative backbenchers make any move to oust him from downing street certainly before the local elections, partly i think because there is not an obvious successor at the moment, he will continue at number 10.— successor at the moment, he will continue at number 10. what sort of a oloa do continue at number 10. what sort of apology do you _ continue at number 10.

apologising. one newspaper saying he will apologise for breaking the rules but insisted that he is not aware he had done so, will that wash? i that he is not aware he had done so, will that wash?— will that wash? i don't think it will that wash? i don't think it will wash- _ will that wash? i don't think it will wash. i— will that wash? i don't think it will wash. i think— will that wash? i

you are a _ a statement tomorrow especially if you are a backbench mp or the voter. the pressure — you are a backbench mp or the voter. the pressure is coming from lots of different areas, sonia. we saw the party gate scandal continuing, increasing allegations, we have seen theissues increasing allegations, we have seen the issues of the chancellor rishi sunak with tax payments and we have also seen the archbishop of canterbury get involved over the weekend around the policy regarding rwanda. wherever you look at this, there are a number of pressures coming on the prime minister. that's absolutely right. _ coming on the prime minister. that's absolutely right, and _ coming on the prime minister. that's absolutely right, and we _ coming on the prime minister. that's absolutely right, and we are - coming on the prime minister. that's absolutely right, and we are living i absolutely right, and we are living in this world where on the one hand, the government got a really big 80 seat majorityjust over two years ago. in the general election. and then on the other hand, it really feels like an embattled government which is in big trouble, the prime minister and the chance of being fined for having broken laws designed to protect is in a national emergency, and the statement of the archbishop of canterbury, lots of questions about financial probity, with boris johnson questions about financial probity, with borisjohnson as well, who paid for his flat renovation, as well as the household tax status of rishi sunak. so lots of focus. i think we will see the impact on this in the local election results. conservatives have really taken a hit in the polls in recent weeks and labour have surged ahead. but we are still a long way off general election, another two years. i think the key thing actually is at the next general election is going to be about people's budgets and the cost of living, energy bills, housing costs. and so i think it's going to be very difficult for the government to evade some sort of responsibility for that in a couple of years time. so, mo, the suggestion that he might get through this unless he could be removed from office. mps can vote on wednesday about whether it should be handed over to a privileges committee, seven mps you could investigate whether he is guilty to wrong doing, can you see a point at which he is forced to be removed? i which he is forced to be removed? i think over the longer term, there is still a _ think over the longer term, there is still a bit _ think over the longer term, there is still a bit of—

the moment in terms of managing the coverage. as sonia has been alluding to, those attacks and those stories and those reports are coming from so many different angles. coming from so many different

number 10 will be trying to talk about the bigger narrative and the bigger picture but this issue _ narrative and the bigger picture but this issue is still bubbling away. sonia. _ this issue is still

damning and more comes from the met police, that this hasjust damning and more comes from the met police, that this has just become normalised, people accept this has happened and they move on or do you think people will get increasingly upset that they followed the rules and the government did not? i upset that they followed the rules and the government did not? i don't think it's going _ and the government did not? i don't think it's going to _ and the government did not? i don't think it's going to dissipate - and the government did not? i don't think it's going to dissipate it - think it's going to dissipate it altogether, the fact that it is dripping out over such along stretch. i do think that if the war in ukraine hadn't happened, i think there was a certain amount of momentum building around conservative mps thinking about voting, holding a vote of no—confidence injohnson getting him out of number 10. and i think the start of the war in ukraine kind of put a stop to that because i think lots of conservative mps feel we shouldn't be doing this when there is a foreign policy crisis, although i do think that there is going to be a war in ukraine probably still in two years so i'm not sure that argument holds water. i think the fact that we are getting more and more news. we have had news of one refined, we are likely to get news more fines, that does keep the story in the news and it keeps minister having to answer questions about it on programmes like yours. i don't think it's going to go away. i think the chances of it really the end for the chances of it really the end for the prime minister in the next year are less than they were when the story was initially breaking at the start of this year. ads, story was initially breaking at the start of

again. this is the same —— the first time this has happened since 1993, arsenal against sheffield wednesday, and arsenal won both. liverpool have got the fa cup final in may the 14th, potentially they champions league final as well and the premier league title. it's incredible if you consider that the british teams in europe, rangers and celtic and west ham going through, chelsea, champions of europe last season, that is not going to happen because they are out of the champions league but can they keep their chance for a piece of silverware this year? it was a forgettable first half and the match only came to life when ruben loftus—cheek broke the deadlock with his first goal of the season just after the hour mark. just 11 minutes later mason mount added chelsea's second to put the match beyond palace's reach. thomas tuchel�*s side lost on penalties to liverpool in the league cup final back in february and now they'll have the chance for revenge next month. maybe the game is then not so exciting, because we did not take too many risks. but it was not the moment to take risks today. and they changed their system, they did not allow a lot of spaces to explore, they did not allow a lot of chances so we have to be patient and keep the focus and that's what we did and i'm very happy. and chelsea's women are also into the fa cup final after beating arsenal 2—nil. after a goalless first half, guro reiten's sensational strike broke the deadlock after the break. beforeji so—yun smashed the ball in off the bar to double their lead and arsenal could find no way back. chelsea will meet manchester city in the final next month. rangers will play hearts in the final of the scottish cup after coming from behind to beat celtic 2—1. the old firm derby went to extra time at hampden and with only five minutes left celtic defender carl starfelt found his own net to send rangers through. defeat ended celtic�*s hopes of a fifth domestic treble in six seasons, they've already won the league cup and have a six—point lead in the scottish premiership. bruno guimaraes says he wants to become a newcastle legend after scoring both goals as they came from behind to beat leicester 2—1 in the premier league. the brazilian midfielder cancelled out ademola lookman's opener on the half—hour and then headed in his second in the fifth minute of stoppage time. guimaraes was newcastle's first big signing under their new owners, joining injanuary for 35 million pounds. they're now 12 points clear of the relegation zone with six games left. burnley drew their first match since sean dyche's sacking. they took the lead at west ham through wout weghorst, before maxwell cornet missed a penalty to put them two up. they were made to pay as thomas soucek equalised after the break. saracens are through to the last eight of the european challenge cup, after beating cardiff by 40 points to 33. it was 16—13 at half time but sarries ran in four tries in the second half, including two from

has indeed. not a particularly cold start to the day, seven to eight or 9 degrees across the board. it is going to be a cooler day than it was over the course of the weekend. there will be a few showers, equally some sunshine as well. we have got two weather fronts, both of them are burying cloud and some rain pushing eastwards, connected to this area of low pressure, the front is wrapped around that which will bring more persistent rain in across the north west and strong winds. here is the first weather front, continuing to clear off into the north sea taking the cloud and rain. behind it to the second weather front weakens, producing some showers here and then. in between the showers there will be some sunshine and not all of us will catch a shower anyway. these are the gusts of the wind speeds, the strongest in the north—east. highs in stornoway are 10 degrees, feeling better in the sunshine further south, feeling quite pleasant but not as warm as over the weekend. these temperatures are fairly close to where we should be at this stage in the year. the pollen levels today are high across eastern and southern parts of england, and we are talking about tree pollen. if you are going out for a walk, bear that in mind. this evening and overnight showers will fade, areas of cloud, rain continuing to push south across scotland. in the clearer skies there will be some patchy mist and fog forming. but not a lot. temperatures wilful away under clear skies in parts of scotland and northern ireland, locally to freezing just below. it will be a colder night than yesterday. tomorrow over the front is slipping southwards, low pressure to the south, so this weather front will bring showery epochs of rain across scotland and northern ireland. areas of cloud at times across england and wales but it will break and we will see some sunshine and showers. the driest and sunniest conditions are along the west coast tomorrow with temperatures nine to 16 degrees and it is not going to be as windy in the north as today. into wednesday, we can see areas of cloud, more of an easterly breeze so it will feel colder across parts of the north sea coastline. weather front is trying to bring in some rain from the west. again feeling pleasant inland, in the sunshine. as we head towards the latter part of the week, the low pressure in the north slips south so weather fronts don't make much road through northern ireland. but not the —— note the direction of the isobars, coming from the east so an easterly wind so it will be cooler along the north sea coastline. and a bit milder towards the west. for many of us through thursday and into friday, the forecast is still dry with highs between 14 and 18 degrees. thank you, i will take that. not much

admissions, according to the nhs, but our love for home improvements is long running. phil mackie has been to an new exhibition that celebrates the highs and lows of diy. it's that time of year where you might be looking around your home and thinking of the improvements you could make. you're not alone, and you're certainly not the first. hello, i want talk about pelmets this week. over the decades, a lot of what we have learned has come from tv. now, there's a new exhibition detailing our love hate relationship with home improvements. appropriately, it's taking place at the museum of making in derby. here, you can learn about the history of diy and even share some of your own worst experiences. so, this is our bodge—o—meter. this is a way that people can rate their own diy skills as a part of the exhibition. you kind of get that need to change, to want to keep up with different styles, different trends. and now we have got instagram and pinterest, people sharing things that they have done in their own homes and saying they have done it themselves and giving people the idea that actually, if they have done it, why can't i? another one finished on the spencer production line. of course, when it comes to making and mending things, some of us are better than others. good god! my skills are more frank spencer than barry bucknell. when i told my wife that i was going to be making a film about diy, she laughed out loud. but as arthur has shown me, it's perfectly easy to come in here and learn to do something just like this is part of this exhibition. we do a mark at six, a mark at 12 and a mark at 18. at the museum, there are workshops where you can learn new skills. the whole building is animated and people are buzzing. and as people go through the building, they can see activities happening and hopefully that will inspire them to take part in those activities. we know how it is, two days very hard work. we know how it is, two days' very hard work. i think you should open your eyes. oh, fantastic! oh, that's brilliant! the exhibition features plenty of archive material from the bbc as part of the corporation's centenary celebrations. let's hope the next generation learns from the lessons and mistakes of the past when it comes to diy. phil mackie, bbc news, derby. some good hammering there! we're nowjoined by presenter and diy expert craig

rules requiring people to wear face coverings in indoor public spaces. good in indoor public spaces. morning. chelsea will play liverpool at wembley for a second time this season after beating crystal palace to reach their third fa cup final in a row. i said, nice weather for it — a spot of canoeing. a faked death, a mind—boggling fraud and an escape by canoe — we speak to the stars of a new drama about the incredible true—life insurance scam. good morning. after many of us enjoyed such a one weekend, this week will be cooler, chilly nights. there will be some sunshine and a few showers. we have got it all this week and i will bring it to you throughout the rest of this morning's programme. good morning. it's monday 18th april. our main story. there have been a number of explosions in cities across ukraine this morning, in what appears to be a significant escalation of russian attacks. in the past hour five major explosions have been reported in the western city lviv — which was previously relatively unscathed. we spoke to our correspondent danjohnsonjust moments after the blasts. there was an air—raid alert warning here this morning at about 7:45am local time, and there have been a number of alerts over the last few days in the early hours of the morning and we thought that would be another that may pass without incident. a previous air—raid alert, there was a russian attack but ukrainian officials said they managed to shoot down the missiles before they did any damage. but this morning at least four orfive explosions have been reported on the edge of the city and i can now see plumes of black smoke rising from the city. we are not allowed to show you where that smoke is coming from. local ukrainian officials, the military, ask us not to do that, not at the moment, until they have ascertained exactly what has been hit. from our rooftop position, i heard jets flying overhead and actually saw a missile streaking through the sky then landing somewhere, and that is where the black smoke is now coming from. it's a marked escalation for people here in lviv, there was an attack on the edge of the city earlier in the conflict, on an old oil depot. there have been a number of air—raid alert but no successful attacks or damage done until this morning. we are not clear what has been hit. some of the smoke apparently is coming from close to the city's railway station, but no confirmation of the target, we don't know this was a russian attack but it has to be the assumption. this is a city in the west of ukraine, we are hundreds of miles away from the really intense fighting in the east of the country. this is somewhere people thought they were safe. i was even talking to people over the weekend who had come back to lviv from poland, perhaps, where they had been staying since the start of the invasion. mothers and children who had come back to see their fathers who have remained here, they came back maybe for a few days over the holiday weekend. this underlines that even here on the western edge of ukraine they are not safe from the potential of russian attacks. in scotland, the legal requirement to wearface masks in public indoor spaces becomes guidance from today. the move had been delayed twice due to record levels of covid cases and high numbers of people in hospital with the virus. 0ur reporterjamie mcivor is in glasgow. the

_ like quite a moment? hello, yes, it certainly feels quite a _ like quite a moment? hello, yes, it certainly feels quite a moment i like quite a moment? hello, yes, it| certainly feels quite a moment after two years, the legal requirement to wear a mask has now been replaced by public health guidance, but it is strong guidance. masks are still highly recommended. one important question now is whether people see any significant change in public behaviour in the coming days and weeks. i have been taking a look around the shops and cafes in glasgow city centre which opened early this morning, and it is certainly immediately obvious that fewer people are wearing a mask now. on the other hand, on the glasgow subway, you can maybe seek the station behind me, plenty of passengers by choosing to wear a mask. and in churches the requirement to wear a mask by law went a couple of weeks ago but at easter sunday services yesterday a lot of people still had a mask on and some changes have actually set aside special zones for the worshippers who would still like to wear a mask so they feel perhaps certain strength in numbers. some businesses are optimistic that with the legal requirements now gone it might be easierfor the legal requirements now gone it might be easier for passers—by simply to feel they can walk into a shop and do a bit of browsing again. they are the changes from today but first minister nicola state has been criticised, she was filmed without a mask on indoors at the point where it was still a legal requirement —— check out nicola sturgeon. what more can you tell us?— can you tell us? something of a olitical can you tell us? something of a political row- — can you tell us? something of a political row. nicola _ can you tell us? something of a

a mask on. the snp say she realised within seconds that she didn't have a mask on, so put one on, but scottish conservatives are accusing her of hypocrisy. the scottish conservatives argued that the legal requirement to wear a mask should have been replaced by guidance some time ago. of course the easing of the legal requirement was delayed twice. but certainly, had the first minister visited a barbershop today, then not wearing a mask for a few seconds would not have been an issue. ., ~' , ., seconds would not have been an issue. ., ~ i. i. issue. thank you, jamie with the latest from _

political career, as he prepares to face mps after being fined for breaking lockdown rules. it's thought he'll face questions about a report in the sunday times, which claimed mrjohnson served drinks at one event. we're joined now by out our political correspondent lone wells. good good morning, good to speak to you this morning. there is significant pressure on the prime minister at the return from easter. that's exactly right, dan. he will address mps in the house of commons tomorrow but also address his conservative party mps tomorrow evening, as well, for many mps this is the first opportunity they will have to speak publicly since the prime minister and chancellor were fined last week. in terms of what is likely to say, i think you will reiterate his apology, so he understands the strength of feeling around this issue, but also reiterate his belief that they are getting on with the job. for example, likely to cite the uk's response to the ongoing situation in ukraine. opposition parties firmly believe he misled parliament when he previously claimed that reels were followed in number 10 at all times, that he was not aware of any parties. they are looking for mechanisms they might be able to hold him to account on this particular issue. that could potentially be some kind of vote or some kind of referral to a parliamentary committee who could then investigate whether or not he misled parliament over this issue. some tory mps are also a bit worried about whether the west is still to come, whether there could be more fines or bad headlines coming down the road, particularly in light of these reports in the sunday times yesterday that at one particular eventin yesterday that at one particular event in november 2020, a leaving dubai from a director of communications, lee cain, the newspaper reported one source saying it wasn't really a leaving do until the prime minister turned up and was serving drinks and joining in with the drinks himself. number 10 have strongly denied that the prime minister initiated any kind of drinks gathering or party but certainly, i think, drinks gathering or party but certainly, ithink, this drinks gathering or party but certainly, i think, this excuse really that has been used so far, that he was popping his head into various work events, may be a lot harder to make if the police or mps do believe that he has been found guilty of breaching any more rules in terms of these are slightly more egregious allegations that have come out in the papers over the weekend. a significant week ahead, lone, thank you very much. lone wells, our political correspondence live from london this morning. you may remember earlier this month we spoke to vitaly shevchenko — the russia editor of bbc monitoring. he told us how worried he was for his elderly mother and his severely disabled aunt, who were still in their home in the east of ukraine. well, with the help of one breakfast viewer, they've arrived safely in the uk. victoria derbyshire went to meet them. this is the moment late at night that vitaly shevchenko knew his mum alla and his auntie irina were truly safe. after a long, 35—hour, 2,000—mile journey to the uk, everyone was exhausted. when i went to talk to them all the next day, vitaly revealed that with war raging and the sisters trapped in the east of ukraine, he didn't know if they'd ever get out alive. i have to be honest, it's a war out there. and there were moments when i thought, am i ever going to see them again? because when my mother told me that the fighting was getting closer, there were explosions and flashes in the sky, the front lines are literally an hour's drive away from her house. i thought, well, it's difficult to extract them from that situation. the fighting is coming nearer, there are reports of explosions and shelling in different parts of ukraine. will i ever see them again? hearing about his desperate plight, a bbc breakfast viewer, and separately, a listener to bbc podcast ukrainecast, offered to help. ukrainian student anastasia arranged for an ambulance to take irina, who can't speak or sit up after having two strokes, and alla, from their home in zaporizhzhia in the east of ukraine to the west of the country. at the ukraine poland border, richard o'doherty from gloucestershire stepped in to drive them through five countries, all the way to reading. why not? you know, it's, i'm there, i've got the time, i've got the van. and loads of donations flowing in, so i've got the money. so why not? it's been a real privilege. richard had been enjoying retirement from hisjob as a deputy vice chancellor at a uk university, and travelling around eastern europe in his motor home. but since russia invaded ukraine, he'd begun to help transport refugees to safety. we planned for four days. it became evident quite quickly that we needed to do it shorter time. so, foot down, and 12—hour days. and, yeah, keeping vitaly abreast of how we're getting on, and so, it was fine, actually. lots of music, we shared lots of ideas about ukraine music, which they told me to turn off! and in the end, she wanted freddie mercury. don't we all?! and i was listening to we are the champions and ijust thought, you know, how nice that is. alla speaks for both herself and her sister when she says what richard has done is the most incredible thing anyone has ever done for her in her entire life. and she now regards richard as family. thank you. we have almost become relatives. have you? that's the bond, that's the bond. alla says she can't believe what president putin is doing to her country. "he's not human," she says. she's left her whole life behind but is determined to return home to ukraine one day. and she's invited richard to visit. once the war is over, come and visit her. ukraine! come and visit ukraine, visit us in ukraine. we are a lovely country. glory to ukraine, we shall win. what you've done for us is unbelievable, amazing, and you quite literally saved us. i can't stress how important it is to real people, real lives, you are literally saving lives. i know you've been involved in volunteer work before the war broke out, as well. you'rejust an amazing person, thank you. that was victoria derbyshire. you what a relief! what a relief to heavier family back with you. and heavier family back with you. and what a 'ob heavier family back with you. and what a job from

just the theatre production for you. it follows the life of a young women who uses her ability to mimic some of the world's most famous singers to escape the reality of her life with her chaotic

laughter time now to get the news, travel and weather where you are. good morning from bbc london, i'm frankie mccamley. 15 people have been injured on a train travelling from newcastle to london kings cross. it happened yesterday morning when the driver of the 08:20 lumo service hit the emergency brake near to peterborough. some passengers say they were thrown from their seats. others were hit by falling luggage. the operator has apologised for any distress. the news comes as rail services across london continue to be affected by engineering works this easter weekend. many tube lines are closed. but the biggest impact has been the closure of parts of the west coast main line. while some have criticised the timing, network rail says the project has been planned for more than two years. the number of prominent women in ourjustice system is growing, but those from diverse backgrounds are still facing big obstacles to try and get to the bar. nneka akudolu says she had to overcome hurdles at the start of her career. but she has recently become the sixth black woman in the uk to be made a qc. what people need to see is the possibilities beyond any obstacles, because i didn't really have a good academic record and everyone sort of tended to think i wasn't going to see it through, and... and, quite frankly, i sort of thrived on that adversity. mould growing on underground tunnel walls is cauing issues for the british museum in holborn. bosses say the grade i listed building needs work to make the structure watertight after moisture got into them. the tunnels are designed to help provide fresh air to the galleries above. if you're out and about this morning, this is how tfl services are looking right now. lots of part closures around so do check before you travel. onto the weather now with elizabeth rizzini. hello, good morning. we'll start off by taking a look at some of the weather watcher pictures from this weekend across the capital. of course, it's been glorious so far this bank holiday, lots of sunshine. it's been dry and temperatures have been above the average for this time of year as well and that's what's about to change today. the high pressure that has been keeping us dry has moved north eastwards allowing a cold front to go through, introducing some cloud, patchy outbreaks of rain, and some cooler feeling air. so that's what we are in today. nevertheless, it is set to stay dry, there will be a lot of sunshine around, sunny spells, really, some patchy cloud coming and going. more of a westerly wind and temperatures this time through the afternoon will peak at 15 or 16 celsius, so feeling cooler that it has been. and then as we head through the rest of the week, expect to see a few showers on tuesday. also still some sunny spells, lots of dry weather in the forecast but we will be staying in that cooler feeling air. before i go — head to our website to meet the family in east london who ring church bells. they've been explaining why they do it and how it's a bit of a workout. i'm back with the latest from the bbc london newsroom in half an hour. hello, this is breakfast with dan walker and nina warhurst. a lot of us will be out and about again today making the most of the bank holiday monday which means seaside towns are likely to get very busy. our reporter megan patterson is spending the morning in tynemouth. iimagine i imagine that the day—trippers are already arriving. i imagine that the day-trippers are already arriving.— already arriving. absolutely, it is beautiful down _ already

absolutely, it is| beautiful down here. we have got some surface in the water, the cafe is are just starting to open, and around here, we have got a group of women doing some meditation, celebrating easter monday. it is obvious why people want to come down and spend some time here and we know over the easter weekend it has been incredibly busy. lots of people enjoying that first easter break without any covid restrictions. it is important to businesses as well as we have been finding out. hungry spring lambs and plenty of willing helpers at feeding time. bleating. at whitehouse farm in northumberland, 1,600 people have passed through the gates here every day over the bank holiday weekend — an attraction full of people keen to enjoy an easter day trip without covid restrictions. it's nice to have a little sense of normality back and for everybody to be mixing — still safely where possible — but, yeah, it's really nice. have you had any easter eggs today? have you had any chocolate yet? no?! you've had no chocolate? you had chocolate for breakfast, didn't you? yes. are you tricking us? yes. a good easter here can make up to 25% of the yearly revenue. this is the first big start to the season in three years. everyone is making the most of it. it's been absolutely amazing because we've missed the last two easters and, without fail, every single year, the easter weekend are our four busiest days of the year. that has followed that pattern for the last 25 years, so it's just amazing to see everybody. everybody�*s out, the weather's been on our side and everybody�*s just — when you're going around, all the smiley faces. lockdown's not been great for anyone, so now that we get back out and about, it's time to explore the northeast again. away from the farm magic, a more easy easter sunday at the waterford lodge in morpeth. the small matter of a newcastle united match keeping some indoors, but the beer—garden appeal still strong. you don't often get the chance in the last 18 months, have you, really? so it's just nice to get out when the sun's shining, and with the family and just relax. really nice to be out in the fresh air and be able to go out and do the things we used to do before lockdown two years ago. it's great. we've been locked up for a while, so it'sjust nice to be able to get. out and very rarely we've got sun i on a bank holiday, as well, so...got to make the most of it, haven't you? half an hour away at the coast, however, it was hoods up and hats on for visitors admiring st mary's lighthouse, but the bracing british weather couldn't deter the ice—cream hungry at di meo's in whitley bay. historically, everyone hits the coast, you know, it's a first sort of... everyone gets their summer clothes ready and they hit the coast. it's not quite summer—clothes weather today, but how busy have you been over the last few days? there is a buzz this year. there is definitely a buzz. even though there is a lot of unpredictable things going on, you know, there is a buzz. everyone's, like, excited to be together. easter 2022 — a return to family traditions, a chance for some well—earned treats, and the boost businesses need to see them into the summer season. lots of people already out on the beach here in tynemouth, someone who has already enjoyed the water this morning is sally, you are a surfing instructor. what sort of like

his first goal of the season. what a time to get itjust after the hour mark. and 11 minutes later mason mount adding the second of the match for chelsea, putting them beyond the reach of crystal palace. maybe the game is then not so exciting, because we did not take too many risks. but it was not the moment to take risks today. and they changed their system, they did not allow a lot of spaces to explore, they did not allow a lot of chances so we have to be patient and keep the focus and that's what we did and i'm very happy. and chelsea's women are also into the fa cup final after beating arsenal 2—nil. after a goalless first half, guro reiten's sensational strike broke the deadlock after the break. beforeji so—yun smashed the ball in off the bar to double their lead and arsenal could find no way back. chelsea will meet manchester city in the final next month. rangers will play hearts in the final of the scottish cup after coming from behind to beat celtic 2—1. the old firm derby went to extra time at hampden and with only five minutes left celtic defender carl starfelt found his own net to send rangers through. defeat ended celtic�*s hopes of a fifth domestic treble in six seasons, they've already won the league cup and have a six—point lead in the scottish premiership. bruno guimaraes says he wants to become a newcastle legend after scoring both goals as they came from behind to beat leicester 2—1 in the premier league. the brazilian midfielder cancelled out ademola lookman's opener on the half—hour and then headed in his second in the fifth minute of stoppage time. guimaraes was newcastle's first big signing under their new owners, joining injanuary for 35 million pounds. they're now 12 points clear of the relegation zone with six games left. burnley drew their first match since sean dyche's sacking. they took the lead at west ham through wout weghorst, before maxwell cornet missed a penalty to put them two up. they were made to pay as thomas soucek equalised after the break. and ronnie o'sullivan is through to the second round of the world snooker championship in sheffield. he beat david gilbert by ten frames to five, as he goes in search of a record equalling seventh world title at the crucible. i'm in a great place, life is great and i think i can keep playing for a lot longer than i thought i could, you know, because i don't feel like i'm playing as well as i was when i was dominating, winning most of the stuff i was playing in but i don't have to be. if i canjust be around, be a hindrance, a little bit like tiger woods, a little bit like these top guys that are past their best, they are still a bit of a pain to deal with sometimes. i got igota i got a message from my aunt saying, is he the one going who cooks curry? i

you think, who is she thinking about? let me just double—check, i thought, before i send a patronising message back. and i saw him cooking a chicken curry and television and i thought, if anyone is

)the ten year old has already caught the attention of famous drummers and has got some big ambitions, as navteonhal, has been finding out. it's notjust his drum kit that sam has been smashing lately. he's been doing the same to expectations too. atjust ten years old, he's become one of the youngest people to pass his grade eight drumming exam, the top grade, with distinction. an achievement made even more incredible by the fact that he's only been playing for around three and a half years. i was really, like, proud and excited and everything when my mum...because she showed she showed me her phone because the results had just came, and she showed me it, and i wasjust, like, stunned. from a very early age, it was apparent that sam seemed to have this natural ability to either rock along or tap in time to the beat of a song, either at home or in the car. and he just seemed to have this very natural sense of timing. i think it's fair to say that . neither me or gary are very musically minded or gifted. so, you know, to have sam, i who suddenly developed this skill of being able to play the drums isjust fantastic. _ and we're not quite sure where it's come from. i my drum heroes, like, the people who inspire me, i like nicko mcbrain from iron maiden and tre cool from green day, camille phillips from the subways. you know how you mentioned that you're a big fan of the band, the subways? well, we've got a little surprise for you from the subways. what, really? hi, sam, it's billy from the subways here. this isjust a message to say congratulations, and we're all so proud of everything that you're achieving. we know that you're a big fan of the band, but we're even bigger fans of you and we can't wait to see what the future holds in store for you. so keep rocking. you're absolutely incredible. what?! how was that? it's amazing! and the little boy from grantham wants to follow in the footsteps of his idols. in the future, i want to be in a band, go on world tours and everything. i just want to play on stage with people. sam is the most talented student that i've seen come through the door for his age. i can see sam playing stadiums, arenas. yeah, he's going to be a rock star. after spending the day with sam, i was hoping some of his skill may rub off on a novice. all right, 0k. you know what? afterjust a few minutes of training with sam, i think now i'm as good as he is. take a look at this. where are you going?! navteonhal, bbc news, grantham. he nearly got away with it! the camera operator _ he nearly got away with it! tue: camera operator let he nearly got away with it! tta: camera operator let you down! great talent nonetheless. let's find out what is happening with the weather, cooler days, colder nights, often dry at night! he cooler days, colder nights, often dry at night!— you will notice the difference from tomorrow, it will be windy tomorrow, across the north west. let's have a look at all of that in a bit more detail. low pressure is driving the weather today, to weather fronts, both heading east, both taking the cloud and rain with them. here is the first and producing some cloud across east anglia and the south—east, and the northern isles in some spots of rain. that moves away and the second one follows behind and we are left with a mixture of sunshine and showers, many of us will miss the showers, and then we also see more persistent rain coming in across the north—west accompanied by strong winds. the black circles represent the strengths of the gusts of wind so that strong it'll be in the north—west, lighter winds further south. sunshine between 1a and 17 degrees, that will feel quite pleasant but not feeling as mild across the north—west with the wind and rain. and all of the cloud. the pollen levels are high today, across parts of eastern and southern england and we are talking tree pollen. if you are planning to get outdoors and you have an allergy, bear that in mind. tonight we will have some areas of cloud, many of the showers will fade, and a clear skies we will see some packets of mist and fog forming and we will have the rain coming in across the north west. temperatures could fall away locally to around freezing that it is generally going to be a cooler night than last night. tomorrow the weather front is still producing some shower rain across scotland and getting into northern ireland, no pressure to the north of us. i will explain why i am saying that in no moment. —— low pression to the north of the north of this. we will see the cloud break with some sunshine and showers. showers in northern ireland and scotland, the weather front not producing much more than cloud. more sunshine along the west coast, temperatures will be down a notch on today. into wednesday, dry weather, an easterly breeze coming in from the north sea so it will feel cooler on the coastline. one or two showers in the wet and weather fronts trying to come in from the atlantic but not making much progress. temperatures nine to 18 degrees. there are low pressure in the north, as we head into thursday, it starts to slip south. the weather fronts not making much inroad to the rest of the uk but what will be significant will be the wind, you will notice the direction it is coming from is easterly. if you are on the north sea coastline may be going out for a walk, you will notice it is going to be cooler in the east, and it will be much milder. highs of 18 in cardiff and still most of us will be dry. thank you. i know my summary was from your board but you gave far more data,

durham, what happened made headlines across the word. it turned out thatjohn had in fact faked his own death as part of an insurance claim, and had planned to start a new life abroad with his wife anne, only for the pair to be found out. now the incredible tale is the subject of a new drama on itv, let's take a look. i know you think i don't take it seriously, but i do. in fact, i've been thinking about pretty much nothing else for the last six months. as far as i can see, we don't have a lot of choice. there is only one sensible solution. i know how hard that will be. i know how important it was for you to feel like you bettered yourself. but i promise you, filing for bankruptcy won't make me love you one single jot less. bankruptcy? yes. what are you talking about? you said there was only one sensible solution. and there is. and it's not bankruptcy. what is it, then? you're going to love this. i'm in already! we're joined now by the two stars of the show, actors eddie

over it, just like it showed in your clips because he had a very detached relationship with his father. he thought if his father died, he would get over in a couple of weeks and it's thought his sons would be the same. and these men, everything is about protecting their own self image and their own ideal of themselves, ratherthan image and their own ideal of themselves, rather than doing anything
