brighter with a few showers and it is still going to be worn this weekend. it's wednesday the 4th of october. after weeks of speculation, the prime minister is expected to use his leader's speech at the conservative party conference to confirm that he's scrapping the second leg of h52 from birmingham to manchester. labour's andy burnham, the mayor of greater manchester, accused the government of treating people in the north as "second—class citizens", while the west midlands mayor andy street, a conservative, was said to be distraught. our political correspondent damian grammaticas reports from the conference in manchester. pushing his way through the late night conference crowds, rishi sunak, relaxed and smiling. he has, it seems, made his mind up. it's the end of h52 to manchester. this was what the pm was saying 2a hours ago. what i want to do is make the right decision for the country. this is an enormous amount of people's money, taxpayers�* money, everybody watching, billions and billions of pounds. we shouldn't be rushed into things like that. what people would expect from me is to take the time to go over it properly and make sure we make the right long term decision for the country. that's what i'm interested in doing. and this is what hs2 is meant to be helping change, the existing victorian rail infrastructure in the north of england. what was envisaged in its place, gleaming trains running on brand new lines. but the costs keep rising. the leg from london to birmingham is being built, but the next part to manchester, it seems, won't. instead, mr sunak will promise a scattering of smaller investments probably across the north and wales. by announcing he's scrapping hs2 to manchester here in manchester, rishi sunak is taking a political risk. he may be hoping that in the cold light of day it'll be seen as a sign that he is prepared to take tough decisions and that the economic benefits will be spread wider. but it may also be seen here as a sign he's cutting this region adrift, failing to deliver on promises made to it. and how do you feel tonight? last night outside the tory conference, there was this appeal coupled with a warning from manchester's mayor to mr sunak. do not pull the plug on this city while you are in this city. do not pull the plug on the north of england. do not treat people here as second class citizens when it comes to transport. because if you do do those things, people here will never forget. a last ditch attempt that doesn't appear likely to change the prime minister's mind. damian grammaticas, bbc news, manchester. our chief political correspondent, henry zeffman, is at the conservative party conference in manchester. henry, we have expected this announcement for a while but now we know and now i guess the question is, how is the prime minister going to persuade people particularly in the north of england that he will still spend money, still invest, and still spend money, still invest, and still keep them happy? i still spend money, still invest, and still keep them happy?— still spend money, still invest, and still keep them happy? i think rishi sunak has three _ still keep them happy? i think rishi sunak has three tasks _ still keep them happy? i think rishi sunak has three tasks in _ still keep them happy? i think rishi sunak has three tasks in his - still keep them happy? i think rishi sunak has three tasks in his speech today, jon. number one, to explain what is going on with hsz. number two, to explain who he is, and number three, to explain why he is different. let's start with hsz. it's clear now that that line from birmingham to manchester is not going ahead, and just because it has been rumoured for a little while, we should not lose sight of what a big deal this is. this has been the government's flagship levelling up a policy for years, since before people had even heard of the term levelling up. just because it has come out via rumours and speculation as rishi sunak calls it, we should not lose sight of the fact that changing that plant so significantly is a big deal and the question of whether rishi sunak can sell the north and sell the country more generally on the alternatives, he wants to spend the money on local projects across the north and wales as we have heard, is very significant. second, he wants to explain who he is. i'm told it's a very personal conference speech, 45 minutes long or so, he will talk about his family, his upbringing, and look, he's been around a little while but there is nothing like the opportunity of a conference speech and a first conference speech as prime minister to be able to set your own sense for the public of who your own sense for the public of who you are and what you want people to know about you and your background. and then i think the boldest and most unusual thing he's going to try to do today is argue that he is very different to what's come before. the pollsters in downing street i'm told had a very clear sense from all the research they do it that the public thinks it's time for a change. and the really interesting thing they're going to do in response is not to do what other political parties in trouble have done and try to argue to the public, you are wrong, it's time to stick with us, what they are going to say is, you are right, it is time for a change. and rishi sunak embodies that change, rather than sir keir starmer and the labour party. and that's why we are told in his speech he will talk about 30 years of the failed status quo. you will remember there has been quite a lot of conservative leaders in the last 30 years, so rishi sunak my implication is saying he is different to them as one of the labour party. can he pull off that political manoeuvre, can he really persuade the public that he is the change when he is asking for a fifth term with the conservative party? he will try and we will see the first attempts to do so in his speech today. it attempts to do so in his speech toda . , . , , . today. it will be energetic speech and an interesting _ today. it will be energetic speech and an interesting day, _ today. it will be energetic speech and an interesting day, we - today. it will be energetic speech and an interesting day, we will. today. it will be energetic speech | and an interesting day, we will get all of the reaction to the hs2 —— it will be an interesting speech and an interesting day. we will get all the reaction to hs2 today, we will speak to andy burnham, and we will hear from grant shapps who is now defence minister but it was previously transport minister. at least 21 people, including two children, have died after a tourist bus crashed off a flyover and caught fire near the italian city of venice. the dead include five ukrainians, one german and the italian driver. 0ur reporter louisa pilbeam has the latest. through the early hours, emergency crews battled to rescue this bus had been full of tourists returning from a day out in venice. now burnt out and overturned. from high up where it veered through crash barriers, you can see the drop. it plunged off this bridge and burst into flames. translation: we lifted the bus to have mathematical— certainty that there were no other people underneath. as you've seen, the bus flipped upside down. the impact was terrible because it fell from over ten metres. there were 39 people, it wasn't easy. in the impact, the electric batteries of the bus caught fire. ukrainians, germans and french nationals are so far believed to be among the dead, according to italian officials. the mayor of venice was at the scene and gave an idea of the scale of casualties at the time. translation: 19 are here. two died in the hospital, so it's 21 now. some of them are ok. then there are some critical in padua. some burned. four children died for now. it happened across the water from venice's tourist centre in the mestre district last night. now, as investigators try to find out how this happened, the italian transport minister has said the driver believed to be among the dead could have suddenly become unwell. louisa pilbeam, bbc news. a man in his 50s has been seriously injured by a dog in sunderland, according to northumbria police. it happened in the shiney row area just before seven o'clock last night. the dog, whose breed has not been revealed, was shot by police, and a second dog was also seized. a 44—year—old man was arrested. large parts of the railway network are at a standstill today as train drivers strike over pay and conditions. sixteen train operators in england are affected by the action. the aslef union says it has deliberately targeted the day of the prime minister's speech to the conservative party conference in manchester to raise the profile of its dispute. the government is paying the highest amount of interest on its national debt in 20 years. it currently owes about £2.59 trillion, but a rise in the cost of borrowing means the chancellorjeremy hunt will need to find another £23 billion to cover the interest ahead of his autumn statement. the republican speaker of the us house of representatives, kevin mccarthy, has been ousted by members of his own party. it's the first time in history that the chamber has removed its speakerfrom office, as our north america correspondent sean dilly explains. the yays are 216. the nays are 210. a historic first. the office of speaker of the house is hereby declared vacant. the house of representatives speaker gone. i don't regret my efforts to build coalitions and find solutions. i was raised to solve problems, not create them. so i may have lost a vote today, but as i walk out of this chamber, i feel fortunate to have served the american people. i leave the speakership with a sense of pride, accomplishment and, yes, optimism. kevin mccarthy was forced out by hardliners in his own party, unhappy with a backroom deal he cut with democrats to pass a last minute temporary funding deal on saturday that prevented a government shutdown. this is the man who triggered mccarthy's removal. the conservative agenda was being paralysed by speaker mccarthy. we hadn't even sent a subpoena to hunter biden. our oversight was lackluster. our spending priorities were misaligned. the top line budget was going to lead to more inflation, more debt, more challenges. so the best way to advance the conservative agenda is to move forward with a new speaker. matt gaetz is a close ally of the former president donald trump. he and a small number of republicans on the radical right of their party want tighter border controls and to limit future funding for ukraine. they had opposed an earlier short term funding package that would have released $6 billion to president zelensky between now and the middle of november. the yays are 335... faced with a midnight deadline to prevent a government shutdown that threatened the united states' international credit rating, mccarthy reached out to the democrats. they supported him, but only because he promised he'd introduce a separate ukrainian funding bill in days. but now mccarthy is gone, so too has that promise. sean dilly, bbc news, in washington. david beckham was on the red carpet in london last night for the premiere of a new netflix documentary about his life. his wife victoria and their four children attended the event. the documentary focuses on the former england captain's childhood, family life and the ups and downs of his career including, of course, that red card during the 1998 world cup. it was a hard time. i speak about it in the documentary. i found it hard to get through that part of the documentary, because it was so personal. it went on for so long. and then rehashing it, going over it and going over the details and also archive that i'd never seen before, it's kind of all brought it back to me and realised how hard it was at the time. a woman is

with a look at the weather. wasn't that amazing? it certainly was, she did brilliantly! good morning, everybody. this morning is wet for some of us and as we go through the rest of this week, you can expect more rain across the northern half of the country, even into the weekend. it is going to turn warmer and it will be more settled as we can further south. this morning we have got rain already across parts of scotland, it will be heavy and it will be on and through the day. one or two showers around further south but some of us starting with some sunshine, hazy in england and wales. through the day our band of rain sinks south, potentially later getting into the far north of northern england and northern ireland, with showers following on saturday behind. gusty winds around the south west of scotland. 11 in lerwick, 19 to london. in the sunshine it will feel pleasant enough. this evening and overnight, a band of rain are still with us, sinking south, and starting to move north once again. heavy rain following on behind. these are the overnight lows, eight to 12 north to south. the wind is easing. tomorrow, here is the first band of rain pushing north, the second one comes in behind it across northern ireland and into north—west england, wales and into north—west england, wales and scotland. rainfall amounts particularly in western scotland will be to accumulate. further south, and east, a drier day, some sunshine around, more cloud around compared to today and temperature is 13 to 18 or 19 degrees. into the weekend, temperatures rise for some, into the low to mid 20s, but an element of doubt in the forecast about what is happening in scotland in particular. you might see some rain which will hold the temperatures down so we are keeping a close eye on that one. an army investigation has found that a teenage soldier probably took her own life, and one of the reasons was a period of relentless sexual harassment from her boss. gunnerjaysley beck, who was 19 and serving in the royal artillery, was found dead at larkhill army camp in wiltshire two years ago. a service inquiry report is due to be published later. jaysley�*s family say she was reluctant to report the harassment because of the army's inadequate response when another of her seniors was reported for sexually assaulting her earlier that year. our home affairs correspondent, june kelly reports. jaysley beck, filmed by her family at the start of her army career. she joined up when she was just 16, finishing her training in 2020. she'd be dressed in her combat gear. her mum lianne and cousin lois with jaysley�*s army cap and trousers. remembering the day she was on parade when she finished her training. it's a massive achievement. and as a parent, to see your child happy is the best feeling in the whole wide world. that's all you want for your children. you could see she was really proud of herself. butjust before christmas in 2021, the exuberant young soldier with no history of mental health issues was found dead. an army investigation has concluded that she probably took her own life. an inquest yet to be held will decide officially. the army investigation found that one of the reasons forjaysley beck's death at larkhill camp was the sustained sexual harassment she suffered from her immediate boss. he wanted a relationship with her. she didn't feel the same. the boss, like everyone else in the report, is not named. in october 2021, jaysley received over a thousand whatsapp messages and voicemails from him. the following month, this increased to more than 3,500. you'd think the easiest solution is block them. you can'tjust block your boss. she were always down. she were fed up of his behaviour. itjust started ruining her enjoyment, a job that she really enjoyed doing. the army report describes some of the messages as controlling. jaysley feared he was watching her and tracking her movements via her mobile phone. her mum and dad and older sister emily knew she was reluctant to report what was happening. she was saying, "what's the point, mum, you don't get listened to." she's going to be seen as a female troublemaker. they say this was because of an earlier episode involving another of her seniors a few months before. that officer sexually assaulted her. jaysley was shocked when he was merely told to send her a letter of apology. the army investigation concluded that family issues, including a bereavement, were also partly responsible forjaysley�*s death. the family are questioning this. i think they're trying to put a lot on the family. they've kind of said we're partly to blame for the passing of our daughter. they've missed a lot out. and truth be told, i find it a difficult read. an army spokesperson said, "our thoughts and sympathies remain with jaysley beck's family and friends at this difficult time." june kelly, bbc news. if you have been affected by any of the issues raised, help is available from bbc

in which she warned of what she called a "hurricane" of migration coming to the uk. the paper described it as a "hardline job application" to one day replace rishi sunak as party leader. the guardian also features a photo of suella braverman but the story looks ahead to the prime minister's keynote speech today. it reports rishi sunak will tell delegates that "voters are exhausted" and pledge to fix britain's political system. a story about the potential risk workers face by excluding a colleague from a whatsapp group, features on the times. an employment tribunaljudge has ruled it "could be discriminatory". and the beckhams feature on many of the papers. david, victoria and their family were pictured at the premiere of their netflix documentary called beckham in london last night. we

lincolnshire village, residents say a plague of creepy—crawlies is making them feel like prisoners in their own homes. crispin rolfe has been to find out more. i love gardening. i'm not even stepping out the door other than quickly out the door and into the car. i hung washing this morning, but i put long trousers on and a jacket on so that i can go and hang the washing out. summer is over, but something still biting in north somercotes. crowds of what people say could be mosquitoes, but which experts think are gnats, causing everybody to close their windows or get in the car fast. but which experts think are gnats, causing everybody to close their windows or get in the car fast. so what have you got here? just magnetic fly nets, just to stop things coming in, they're on all the bedroom windows. forjane and mum winifred, it's been the worst year they can remember. from what people have said, it's never been this bad before. you can't walk to the shop or anything without getting bitten. and if you get one in the house! of course, whether you're dealing with a gnat or a mosquito largely depends on the sound. shrill buzzing. this, that of a mosquito. either way, it's a problem also affecting nearby saltfleet. is this a mosquito or a gnat? that's a dying mosquito without question at the top there. where sharon lidington has tried everything to stop getting bitten. last night i could not go to sleep because there was two buzzing around my head. you just can't get them, they're just too quick. so i'm constantly... and we've got this lighter thing on so that tries to kill them, but that terrifies the dog because it goes tsssss! yeah, i can't stand them. i'd even move, they are that horrible. it's never much fun being some insect�*s lunch, but when you live next to vast swathes of marshland, like much of this part of lincolnshire does, it kind of comes with the territory. what's not helped has been a wet summer and also a warm autumn, meaning perfect breeding conditions for biting insects and complaints from communities, caravan parks and schools about what they're having to put up with. meantime, here's the good news. there are some mosquitoes that can survive right into the end of autumn, even the beginning of winter. and we've had some very mild winters. so there's no reason why you couldn't see the odd mosquito popping up to spoil your christmas day. of course, there are plenty of ways to deal with the problem, including having as many spiders as you can bear in the house. crispin rolfe, bbc news. why didn't they say there was a spider— why

will start at euston instead of old oak common. it comes after weeks of speculation the new high speed line would be cut back — and that it would start at the new terminal that's under construction in west london to save money. work at euston station was halted injuly amid spiralling costs. a murder investigation is continuing this morning after a man was stabbed to death in brixton yesterday afternoon. it happened on coldharbour lane at around llzlls. emergency services were called but the 22—year—old died at the scene. a planned train strike by members of the aslef union involving train drivers will go ahead today. passengers are being warned there will be no services on affected lines, and to check before you travel. it comes after a walkout by tube staff was suspended yesterday. the bfi london film festival kicks off today. ahead of its opening, bbc london has been given access to its national archive based in berkhamstead. and one very special reel that was restored this year is the film pressure — which was shot in west london in the �*70s. it was the first feature—length film to have a black director — horace ove. he passed away last month at the age of 86, and leaves this film as part of a remarkable legacy. film—maker, photographer, artist, author. but really one of the people who forged a path for others to follow. immense legacy, incredible creative, and it'sjust an honour that the bfi is able to really celebrate his legacy with the support of his family. let's take a look at the tubes now. now onto the weather with sara thornton. morning to you. a little bit cool out towards our suburbs this morning — a slightly fresh feel out there but plenty of sunshine and high pressure, ourfair—weather friend dominating our weather for the coming days, pushing frontal systems away from us and, crucially — the big story is — drawing up some very warm air from the south for the weekend. not quite with us yet so it is, as i say, a fresh feel out there first thing. through the day today, generally dry, a little bit of cloud here and there. the odd stray passing shower moving through quite quickly. a lot of sunshine, as well, and temperatures maybe even slightly above average for the time of year — at 19 celsius. overnight tonight, we are losing the wind a little bit and, under clear skies — largely, a little bit of passing cloud here and there — the temperatures again will fall away. like this morning, we're talking about high single figures in our suburbs — perhaps even a little bit cooler first thing tomorrow morning — ten or 11 degrees in the capital. but as i say, the big story is the one of the weekend — a lot of sunshine, high pressure dominating our weather. we're dry, we're settled and we're very warm — could see 27 on sunday. that's it from me — more on the bbc news app, including what lines are affected due to today's train strike. i'll be back with you in half an hour. hello, this is breakfast with sally nugent and jon kay. as we've been hearing, at around lunchtime today the prime minister is expected to announce that the hs2 link between birmingham and manchester is to be scrapped — after weeks of speculation. including conversation with the prime minister on this programme yesterday. ben has been looking through the details on what we know so far and what we might find out today. there will be a lot of attention on what exactly the prime minister says later — because investment, jobs, and businesses will all be affected by this. notjust by the expected scrapping of hs2 north of birmingham — but also by whatever alternatives are put forward. let me remind you what's at stake here. hs2 is a massive project — this is the original plan — hs2 is a massive project — to create high—speed rail links between london and major cities in the midlands and north of england. it will cost tens of billions of pounds and is aimed at cutting journey times and increasing capacity. but this eastern leg was scrapped by the government in 2021. and this second phase between birmingham and manchester, which was delayed already, is now understood to be scrapped. and it's down to the cost. the project was originally budgeted at 33 billion back in 2010. but according to the last official estimates in 2019 that had more had more than doubled, and that could have risen even further since. but what do those who would be affected by this announcement think? we've been speaking to people in lichfield near birmingham. with the country in the state that it's in at the moment, _ i think that money would be far better put to other causes. - i think it's a major employer, and i think that it's important that it goes ahead. and i think it would be absolutely wrong to cut manchester off from birmingham. we've wasted billions - of pounds on work so far, and a lot of people will be out of work. _ i think it should never have been built in the first place — the whole thing should have been abandoned — but it's a bit difficult now, isn't it? it's got to a certain state. so with no northern link to manchester on hs2 — what could happen instead? well, hs2 trains could run on existing tracks. money could be put into improving northern rail links between the east and west. and there are calls from some conservative mps for a new line connecting liverpool to hull. conservative mps for a new line

they will stress, and they probably should have known this already, is that accuracies is everything more important than efficiency but it is certainly fascinating. it is great to hear the audio because we never do. chaos, confusion. panic. that is certainly what comes out of it. the audio does little to draw a line under the controversy — highlighting what we already knew, that human error was at fault. but what it does show is how the decision was arrived at — with the referees governing body saying changes will come to stop it happening again, as our sports editor dan roan reports. saturday evening, and luis diaz appears to give liverpool a crucial lead against spurs. diaz! liverpool in front. offside flag's gone up, they're not in front. but in one of the worst officiating errors the english game has seen, a clearly incorrect on—field decision to disallow the goal for offside failed to be overturned by the video assistant referee. having lost, a livid liverpool said sporting integrity had been undermined, and requested audio recordings between the officials — and they were released. but in what referees�* body pgmol described as a lapse of concentration and focus, england had inadvertently confirmed the on—field decision to wrongly rule out the goal, rather than overturn it — leading to panic and confusion among the team at var headquarters in west london. having already apologised to liverpool for what they called a significant human error, pgmol said, to try and avoid a repeat, they would reiterate to officials that accuracy was more important than efficiency, enhance communication between the referee and var team, and ask the var to confirm checks with the assistant before a final decision. speaking before the release of the video, rival manager pep guardiola addressed the issue. you have to rely on the people there, but everyone knows they did a mistake and... and liverpool suffer the consequences of that, because in these type of games it's so important. but no worry — the consequences will dictate the players and the managers. don't worry. the farcical blunder that marred the match between spurs and liverpool here at the tottenham hotspur stadium has sparked arguably the biggest refereeing crisis that english football has seen, with mounting fears that the credibility of the premier league is now being undermined. many fans asking how officiating standards can be improved, why there's not more transparency around decisions, and whether var — a system brought in to try and help referees — should now be abandoned. the premier league says it's clear there are systemic weaknesses in the var process, and have announced their own review. but after this latest controversy, rebuilding trust will be no easy task. dan roan, bbc news. there is no doubt that incident has put the technology back in the spotlight. you couldn't blame the referees for this one. manchester united on the end of another disappointing defeat, losing to galatasaray in the champions league. having already made their worst start to a league season in 3a years, it's two defeats from two in their group and they face an uphill battle to qualify. it was also a bad night for arsenal, who lost to lens. joe lynskey reports. full time in the rain — no escape from the gloom. manchester united are off form in the league, and now off the pace in europe. one of their worst starts to a season has one more bleak night. they had hoped this match would bring the lift—off. back at home in the champions league, and soon one up to galatasaray. but that goal was just the start of a night of back—and—forth. the turkish champions were level through wilfried zaha — a man who used to play here, and who made sure old trafford knew it. rasmus hojlund has been one of united's bright spots — a third goalfor him since his move in the summer put his team back in front. but galatasaray were here as the in—form side, and found the gaps to make it 2—2. it is in defence where united are fragile — and when casimiro was sent off,, it all changed again. galatasaray missed the spot kick, but now this match was wide open. there would be one last twist. lifts it over the goalkeeper and scores! for the first time, united start this competition with two defeats from two. there was more hope for arsenal as they went to rc lens. there are no excuses. maybe we have a bit of an unbalanced left side but still, we can't make the errors that we are now making. we have to do better and it'sjust we are now making. we have to do better and it's just simply the fact, we have to win our games. there was more hope for arsenal as they went to rc lens. the gunners were yet to lose this season, and when they went ahead few in france foresaw a fightback. but, just like at old trafford, this game swung. and thomasson was in there! lens were level in the first half, and in the second swept ahead. theirfirst home game in this competition since 2002 had brought their miracle result on a night of champions league surprises and premier league setbacks. joe lynskey, bbc news. it is emotional stuff, isn't it, this football game? burnley have their first victory of the season in the premier league. bruun larsen scored a late winner as vincent kompany�*s side beat luton town 2—1. burnley move up a spot, they're third from bottom. luton a place above them on goal difference. i tell you what, with the release of this audio, the refereeing decisions and var, it is going to be poured overin and var, it is going to be poured over in the next couple of weeks, every incident that it could potentially be poured over all season because imagine we get to the end of the season and things are very close for liverpool at. bud end of the season and things are very close for liverpool at. and it comes down _ very close for liverpool at. and it comes down to _ very close for liverpool at. and it comes down to that. _ very

who was the best? let's not start| that, we have to remain impartial. we do! but surely everyone agrees that sir roger moore's 007 wore the fanciest clobber. iconic. iconic. today, a range of those outfits — along with other memorabilia — are being auctioned off in london. celestina olulode went for a sneak preview along with the late actor's son. and you cannot believe how like his dad he looks! bond theme. daring, dangerous, and yet irresistibly suave. the late sir roger moore as james bond in the 1985 hit a view to a kill. it's a role he would play more than any other actor — a total of seven times. and this is one costume his son geoffrey remembers well. well, i was there with him when he wore it on set. and i worked on the film, too. not many people know that. but in his contract, he wasn't allowed to ski in case of injury. and here he is in the film, jumping off mountains with a parachute and skiing. so once he was able to, you see, he was, you know, a kid in a candy store — you just couldn't get him off the skis. he just absolutely loved it. and i thought it was very brave of him to start at such a late age. more than 200 items have been put up for auction by his family. what does it feel like, walking around? emotionally, it's the first time i've seen it all from a box — you know, from a garage, from a warehouse. and then seeing it all here, it's the closest thing i'm going to feel that roger's here. you know, his spirit�*s alive. you know, really quite overwhelmed. it's a collection that includes a hollywood hall of fame plaque, lamborghini skis, and the first item of clothing roger wore as bond. you know, when we were talking about the overcoat from live and let die, that's the first time roger actually comes out and says "bond." when he says "bond, james bond", he was wearing that. bond girl susie vanner remembers his humour. what's happened? where are you going? it was just the most fun ever. he's so funny, so charming and handsome. and, you know, i mean, we were actually making love. well — we weren't atually making love, but we were supposed to be making love. but, james, i need you! so does england. well, as soon as you walk into this room, all you can see are the beautiful, immaculate suits. completely beautifully tailored. and i think that's roger down to a t because he was so... so charming, so debonair — you know, with these marvellous suits. he was very keen on looking good, you know? and i'm actually a little bit distressed to find there are no red underpants, because that's what he wore when we did our love scene together! and for collectors, there's a number of limited—edition items. so this watch was created for the 50th anniversary of the bond franchise. and here you can see engraved, "to roger, with love from barbara and michael." that's barbara broccoli and michael g wilson, the producers. i mean, what a fantastic, unique lot to have in the sale. i'm curious, how much is it expected to go for? well, we've got an estimate of £20,000 to £30,000 and we'll see how it goes on the day. but roger was more than bond. in 1991, he became a unicef goodwill ambassador. but this was definitely... i think he was most proud of. you asked, you know, "what's the best role you ever played ? " he said, "goodwill ambassador to unicef." to help children and use his popularity to bring awareness and do good. i think that's a... that's quite an admirable profession. the auction will take place at bonhams, central london, later today. celestina olulode, bbc news. now there is a man who could wear a suit well. ,, , ., , ., ., ., suit well. surrey, are you having a to suit well. surrey,

the country, there will be some rain on and off at times but it will turn warmer into the weekend. especially for england and wales and to a certain extent northern ireland. a lesser extent we think at the moment across scotland and i will get onto that shortly. at the moment we have to make a weather front crossing us, both bearing rain. furthersouth, high pressure so things are more settled. the weather fronts have been coming so things are more settled. the weatherfronts have been coming in through the night, producing all this rain. this first batch moving northwards. the second batch coming in across northern parts of northern ireland and western scotland, where we have already seen quite a bit of rain in the last few days. through the day this band of rain will continue to slowly push northwards and eastwards for a time. to the south of that, there is some cloud around, some that high cloud, the sunshine is hazy, a few showers peppering western areas and through the day you can see our weather from starting to slip back southwards again. takes its rain into southern scotland, the final of northern england and northern ireland. it will be quite windy across the south—west of scotland with temperatures ranging from 11 in the north to 19 in the south. 19 in the sunshine will quite pleasant. as we head on through the evening and overnight hour when different things southwards as a weak feature but it curls back and will head northwards again and another one is coming in on its heels. some clear skies, so in sheltered glens in scotland, temperatures could get down to 2 or three degrees. for most, staying in double figures. that is how we start tomorrow. we have our week when different moving northwards, this next area of low pressure coming with more weather fronts, next area of low pressure coming with more weatherfronts, that equation equals more rain and more rain where the ground will already be pretty wet. the first band moves north—west, the second comes in, bringing more rain across northern ireland, western scotland, north west england, wales and into the south—west. also across the far south—west. also across the far south—west there will be quite a bit of a misty, naked conditions to start the day. temperatures 13 to 19 degrees. driest conditions but turning cloudy as we go through the day, across the far south—east. as we move into friday, more rain across the north of the country. again the rainfall totals will really be mounting up and we can see it dragged into northern ireland and also northern england. come south, drier and more settled. still with high pressure. subtle change in the wind direction as we see that coming up wind direction as we see that coming up from the south—west, so temperatures will start to rise. i will quickly show you this chart because it shows the uncertainty through the weekend. we have all these weather fronts and high pressure. the high pressure is trying to move the weather fronts northwards, but there is a complication because we have the remnants of a tropical storm in the atlantic staring up the atmosphere. if the forecast goes as it looks at the moment, it could be wet in scotland during the weekend, which were pegged back temperatures. in the sunshine further south, it will be quite warm for the the sunshine further south, it will be quite warm for the time the sunshine further south, it will be quite warm for the time of the sunshine further south, it will be quite warm for the time of year quite we have been talking this morning how these warmer

will get their chance later today. former gymnast beth tweddle knows a thing or two about getting onto the winners' podium — and shejoins us now. good morning. thank you for coming to chat with us

any small mistake is counted towards that team score. unfortunately last night the boys, they have put in new upgrades and sometimes it works and sometimes it doesn't. the difference this world championships is normally, this is where we qualify, because the teams were both so successful last year they have already qualified to paris for the olympics, so this world championships was the

team, so getting him that exposure to a world environment, getting exposed to that pressure of three up, three to count. however much you try to replicate that in training, you cannot reproduce that

out, you wouldn't even know. she is producing routines that are well executed, full of difficulty and it is nice to have a character like that back in our sport. we talked about how _ that back in our

the twisties is where you are in the air, we i that sort of level? the twisties is where you are in the air, we are l where you are in the air, we are doing twists, and it is when you take off for and you literally have no idea where you are. that can be quite dangerous, obviously, in our sport, so that is why in tokyo she took a step back, pulled out of various finals and returned for the beam because you don't tend to twist. one of the reasons i have read that her coach was so keen on her performing this vault is the 2.5 twists, which is known for doing normally very easy, he is worried that the twisties would come back so, yeah, it can be a very scary moment and it can happen from a very young gymnast all the way through to the likes of simone but i think the thing that both max and simone have highlighted, it is ok to step away and look after number one and look after yourself, whether that is in sport, or in everyday life. find after yourself, whether that is in sport, or in

happened on coldharbour lane at around quarter to five. emergency services were called but the 22—year—old died at the scene. this latest attack comes less than a week after the fatal stabbing of 15—year—old elianne andam in croydon and a 16—year—old boy in edmondon on monday. tonight a candlelit vigil is planned in south london for elianne. the 15—year—old was stabbed whilst on the way to school last wednesday. a 17—year—old boy who cannot be named for legal reasons will face a murder trial next year. a planned train strike by members of the aslef union involving train drivers will go ahead today. passengers are being warned there will be no services on affected lines and to check before you travel. it comes after a walk out by tube staff was suspended yesterday. and there's more detail about today's strike and what lines are affected on the bbc website and the bbc news app. the bfi london film festival kicks off today. ahead of its opening bbc london has been given access to its national archive in berkhamstead. and one very special reel that was restored this year is the film "pressure" which was shot in west london in the 70s. it was the first feature—length film to have a black director, horace ove. he passed away last month and leaves this film as part of a remarkable legacy. film—maker, photographer, artist, author. but really one of the people who forged a path for others to follow. immense legacy, incredible creative, and it'sjust an honour that the bfi is able to really celebrate his legacy with the support of his family. let's take a look at the tubes now. there's a good service on all of the network. now onto the weather with sara thornton. morning to you. a little bit cool out towards our suburbs this morning — a slightly fresh feel out there but plenty of sunshine and high pressure, ourfair—weather friend dominating our weather for the coming days, pushing frontal systems away from us and, crucially — the big story is — drawing up some very warm air from the south for the weekend. not quite with us yet so it is, as i say, a fresh feel out there first thing. through the day today, generally dry, a little bit of cloud here and there. the odd stray passing shower moving through quite quickly. a lot of sunshine, as well, and temperatures maybe even slightly above average for the time of year — at 19 celsius. overnight tonight, we are losing the wind a little bit and, under clear skies — largely, a little bit of passing cloud here and there — the temperatures again will fall away. like this morning, we're talking about high single figures in our suburbs — perhaps even a little bit cooler first thing tomorrow morning — ten or 11 degrees in the capital. but as i say, the big story is the one of the weekend — a lot of sunshine, high pressure dominating our weather. we're dry, we're settled and we're very warm — could see 27 on sunday. that's it from me, more on the bbc news app of course. i'll be back with you in half an hour. good morning, welcome to breakfast with sally nugent and jon kay. our headlines today. the hs2 rail line between birmingham and manchester will be scrapped. after days of uncertainty, the announcement�*s expected from the prime minister later. a bus crashes off a flyover in venice and catches fire killing at least 21 people. fuel prices at the pump rise for the fourth month in a row with the average cost of a litre of petrol up by more than four pence in september. panic and confusion as the var audio from that controversial disallowed goal for liverpool last weekend is made public. delay the game, delay the game. they've restarted the game. it shows how the incorrect decsion was reached, with human error to blame. we're celebrating grassroots volunteers as we mark the launch of the unsung hero category in this year's bbc sports personality of the year. for scotland and northern ireland, rain at times, some sunshine at times as well but for england and wales, a drier day with isolated showers and sunny spells and turning warmerfor most this showers and sunny spells and turning warmer for most this weekend. all of the details later in the programme. it's wednesday the ltth of october. after weeks of speculation, the prime minister is expected to use his leader's speech at the conservative party conference to confirm that he's scrapping the second leg of hs2 from birmingham to manchester. labour's andy burnham, the mayor of greater manchester, accused the government of treating people in the north as "second—class citizens", while the west midlands mayor andy street, a conservative, was said to be distraught. our political correspondent damian grammaticas reports from the conference in manchester. pushing his way through the late night conference crowds, rishi sunak, relaxed and smiling. he has, it seems, made his mind up. it's the end of hs2 to manchester. this was what the pm was saying 2a hours ago. this is an enormous amount of people's money, taxpayers' money, everybody watching, billions and billions of pounds. we shouldn't be rushed into things like that. what people would expect from me is to take the time to go over it properly and make sure we make the right long term decision for the country. that's what i'm interested in doing. and this is what hs2 is meant to be helping change, the existing victorian rail infrastructure in the north of england. what was envisaged in its place, gleaming trains running on brand new lines. but the costs keep rising. the leg from london to birmingham is being built, but the next part to manchester, it seems, won't. instead, mr sunak will promise a scattering of smaller investments probably across the north and wales. by announcing he's scrapping hs2 to manchester here in manchester, rishi sunak is taking a political risk. he may be hoping that in the cold light of day it'll be seen as a sign that he is prepared to take tough decisions and that the economic benefits will be spread wider. but it may also be seen here as a sign he's cutting this region adrift, failing to deliver on promises made to it. and how do you feel tonight? last night outside the tory conference, there was this appeal coupled with a warning from manchester's mayor to mr sunak. do not pull the plug on this city while you are in this city. do not pull the plug on the north of england. do not treat people here as second class citizens when it comes to transport. because if you do do those things, people here will never forget. a last ditch attempt that doesn't appear likely to change the prime minister's mind. damian grammaticas, bbc news, manchester. our chief political correspondent, henry zeffman, is at the conservative party conference in manchester. he conference in manchester. has got his big moment speech he has got his big moment, the big speech this afternoon, the prime minister, orthis speech this afternoon, the prime minister, or this morning, speech this

lose sight of what a big deal this is. this is the government's flagship levelling policy, before anyone had even heard the word levelling up, so all of rishi sunak�*s predecessors as conservative prime minister have said that they think he is doing the wrong thing. rishi sunak is going to lean into that controversy in his speech and acknowledge that this is a decision that lots of people will disagree with, and it is a significant change of approach. he will say that those other kinds of controversial, difficult, ortool use their slogan, decisions that he wants to make to show that he is a different prime minister and that is one of the really interesting themes of the speech. she your neck isn't just going to say that he thinks the labour party would be wrong for the country in the future and has been wrong for the country in the past, you would expect that from a conservative leader. he is also going to talk about 30 years of a failed status quo. you don't need me to tell you there have been quite a few conservative prime ministers in the last 30 years and rishi sunak is going to be effectively saying, they have taken wrong approach. that is a bold manoeuvre, an unusual manoeuvre. clearly he and his team have looked at the opinion polls showing they are way behind the labour party and decided something bold is what he needs to do. thank ou ve bold is what he needs to do. thank you very much. _ bold is what he needs to do. thank you very much, henry, _ bold is what he needs to do. thank you very much, henry, it _ bold is what he needs to do. thank you very much,

will hear from the former transport secretary grant shapps, now defence secretary, in the next half an hour here on breakfast. now sally with the rest of the news. at least 21 people, including two children, have died after a tourist bus crashed off a flyover and caught fire near the italian city of venice. the dead include five ukrainians, one german and the italian driver. our reporter louisa pilbeam has the latest. this bus had been full of tourists returning from a day out in venice. now burnt out and overturned. from high up where it veered through crash barriers, you can see the drop. it plunged off this bridge and burst into flames. translation: we lifted the bus to have mathematical— certainty that there were no other people underneath. as you've seen, the bus flipped upside down. the impact was terrible because it fell from over ten metres. there were 39 people, it wasn't easy. in the impact, the electric batteries of the bus caught fire. ukrainians, germans and french nationals are so far believed to be among the dead, according to italian officials. the mayor of venice was at the scene and gave an idea of the scale of casualties at the time. translation: 19 are here. two died in the hospital, so it's 21 now. some of them are ok. then there are some critical in padua. some burned. four children died for now. it happened across the water from venice's tourist centre in the mestre district last night. now, as investigators try to find out how this happened, the italian transport minister has said the driver believed to be among the dead could have suddenly become unwell. louisa pilbeam, bbc news. harry farleyjoins us now from rome. harry, what's been the reaction in italy to this incident? good morning. the italian prime minister this morning, giorgio maloney, saying she was following developments and she expressed her condone you —— her condolences. the venice described as apocalyptic. he said he was speechless and tragedy has struck the community. you saw from the report, a0 people were thought to be on board. it's worth saying this morning that 18 are injured and five more of those are seriously injured. there are fears that the death toll of 21 could rise even further. the cause of the crash remains unclear, investigations are under way, remains unclear, investigations are underway, one remains unclear, investigations are under way, one thought is that possibly the a0—year—old italian driver who is thought to have died in the crash was taken ill moments before the bus plunged off the flyover onto the railway tracks below. investigations are still under way here in italy and it's a country shocked at this tragic incident. ., ~ country shocked at this tragic incident. ., ,, , ., , country shocked at this tragic incident. ., ~' , ., , . incident. thank you very much, har . a man in his 50s has been seriously injured by a dog in sunderland, according to northumbria police. it happened in the shiney row area just before seven o'clock last night. the dog, whose breed has not been revealed, was shot by police, and a second dog was also seized. a aa—year—old man was arrested. the government is paying the highest amount of interest on its national debt in 20 years. it currently owes about £2.59 trillion, but a rise in the cost of borrowing means the chancellorjeremy hunt will need to find another £23 billion to cover the interest ahead of his autumn statement. the republican speaker of the us house of representatives, kevin mccarthy, has been ousted by members of his own party. it's the first time in history that the chamber has removed its speaker, which is one of the most powerful roles in us politics, from office. mr mccarthy only became speaker injanuary, after a record 15 rounds of voting. large parts of the railway network are at a standstill today as train drivers strike over pay and conditions. the aslef union says it has deliberately targeted the day of the prime minister's speech to the conservative party conference in manchester to raise the profile of its dispute. our business reporter ben king has more. this is the 38th day of strikes on britain's railway since the current round of disputes began last summer — and the 1ath by members of aslef — bringing disruption to much of england's railways, and some lines serving scotland and wales. the majority of affected rail operators are running no service at all today — including avanti west coast, crosscountry, northern and transpennine express — with severely reduced services on others, including great western, lner, and southern. and there's an increased risk of disruption on thursday and friday, too, from an aslef overtime ban. prominent among the events affected — the prime minister's speech to conservative party conference in manchester. we've chosen to strike during the tory party conference because for 16 months they've been lying about us targeting various events, which we haven't. so we've actually chosen the target the people that have been targeting us, and it's no coincidence at all — we want to raise the profile of the problems that we're having on the railway, and we want a resolution. the union says its members haven't had a pay rise for over four years, but train operators say they can't afford to give them a pay rise unless working practices change. there is an offer on the table, and that would give the average train driver a salary of £65,000 a year for a four—day week. now, we think that is more than fair and reasonable, but aslef won't even consider it because we are tying it to the kind of reforms that we believe are necessary to fund it. the transport secretary, mark harper, has urged aslef to put the offer to its members and end the industrial action. but the prospect of a deal any time soon seems remote, with a growing chance of strikes affecting the christmas period and into the new year. ben king, bbc news. david beckham was on the red carpet in london last night for the premiere of a new netflix documentary about his life. his wife victoria and their four children attended the event. the documentary focuses on the former england captain's childhood, family life and the ups and downs of his career including, of course, that red card during the 1998 world cup. it was a hard time. i speak about it in the documentary. i found it hard to get through that part of the documentary, because it was so personal. it went on for so long. and then rehashing it, going over it and going over the details and also archive that i'd never seen before, it kind of all brought it back to me and realised how hard it was at the time. madame tussauds has unveiled a new waxwork of the broadcasting legend sir david attenborough, 31 years after the first one was revealed. the new image shows sir david in his signature blue shirt and khaki trouders, and a working watch. shirt and khaki trousers, and a working watch. look at that, it's actually brilliant. the 97—year—old was first immortalised by the tourist attraction in 1992 and this one will be available for public viewing from october the 20th. that really is... that is brilliant. he hasn't _ that really is... that is brilliant. he hasn't really _ that really is... that is brilliant. he hasn't really changed - that really is... that is brilliant. he hasn't really changed in i that really is... that is brilliant. l he hasn't really changed in those years. he looks almost exactly the same! we need a waxwork of carol. there is surely one already! let's start a campaign! thank you, sally! the next few days if you are in the northern half of the country, rain on and off at times, whereas further south things will be more settled with one or two showers and this weekend especially in southern areas are going to turn much warmer. today we have heavy showers across the far north of scotland, rain coming in across parts of northern ireland and scotland following an already saturated —— falling on saturated ground, but further south some dry conditions. sunshine hazy in place. showers on the north coast of northern ireland, and then heavy rain with a bit of a gap in between that and the showers across orkney. the gap will not last because the rain is pushing north and through the day it's going to slide south back into southern scotland, northern ireland and the far north of northern england. temperatures today, 11 to 19 degrees. a breezy day but if you are out in the breeze, that will feel quite pleasant. gusty winds across the south—west of scotland. this evening and overnight, the weatherfront sinks southwards into northern england and then it pivots around and comes back into northern ireland and comes back into northern ireland and south—west scotland. some clear skies in the north—east, temperatures could slip away to two or three degrees, but high single figures or double figures for most. tomorrow, more rain coming in from the west, the driest conditions in the west, the driest conditions in the south—east and temperatures similar to today. let's return now to our main story. after weeks of speculation, the prime minister rishi sunak is expected to confirm later that he's cancelling plans for high speed rail between birmingham and manchester. labour's andy burnham is the mayor of greater manchester and hejoins us now. good morning, andy burnham. as we head closer to this expected announcement later on today, how are you feeling this morning? weill. announcement later on today, how are you feeling this morning?— you feeling this morning? well, my aoodness. you feeling this morning? well, my goodness- it's _ you feeling this morning? well, my goodness. it's so _ you feeling this morning? well, my goodness. it's so frustrating. it i goodness. it's so frustrating. it just proves there is still so many people in politics, many of them in the tory party, that think they can treat the north of england differently to the way they treat other parts of the country. it's just so wrong. i've been in politics 30 years, i've never seen a party come to a conference and leave an axe hanging over the place they are in for the whole week. and then drop it on that place. ijust don't think it's fair to people in greater manchester to do this, and the plan that they are putting forward that we have only seen briefed overnight because we haven't even been told what it is, takes trains from hs2 in birmingham and puts them on the existing tracks of the west coast main line. that's simply not going to work, it's not a workable plan. you can see where there is huge frustration and growing anger in greater manchester about this. we can talk quite a lot about the communication of this expected announcement and how maybe that has not gone, and the communication between the government and you and the other regional mayors, but if is expected this coming this afternoon, and the government then announces what is expected, £37 billion which would be saved which would be reinvested in regional transport links across the whole of the north and the midlands, surely that is a good thing. and the midlands, surely that is a good thing-— good thing. well, we will have to look at what _ good thing. well, we will have to look at what they _ good thing. well, we will have to look at what they say, _ good thing. well, we will have to look at what they say, won't i good thing. well, we will have to look at what they say, won't we? because we had many promises before from the conservative party about what they're going to do for the north. ten years ago, george osborne came here and say, you will have hs three, hs2, hs three is now northern powerhouse rail, and they haven't done them. borisjohnson stood in front of stevenson rocket and promised us the earth and it didn't happen. we can understand why people feel cynical. we wanted to welcome them this week, not be speaking in them this week, not be speaking in the media and give them a chance to have a conference but they put us in a really difficult and unfair position. i willjudge what they say carefully but as i understand it, they are going to pull the plug on they are going to pull the plug on the possibility of a new across the north of england, and if you speak to anybody who lives here, —— a new line across the north of england, and if you speak to anyone who lives there, they will say that is the highest transport priority in the country because people travelling from liverpool to leeds and beyond suffer daily miserably trying to do thatjourney. that neil i and is critically important to —— that new line is critically important. unless they commit to new line with the station from bradford to leeds, we will not be satisfied with what they are promised they are doing. we have not had a commitment to this line in one conservative manifestos, not two, three conservative manifesto since osborne promised the northern powerhouse. since osborne promised the northern powerhouse-— powerhouse. rishi sunak said yesterday _ powerhouse. rishi sunak said yesterday he _ powerhouse. rishi sunak said yesterday he will _ powerhouse. rishi sunak said yesterday he will be - powerhouse. rishi sunak said yesterday he will be known i powerhouse. rishi sunak said | yesterday he will be known for taking difficult decisions that other people don't want to make and this is a very difficult decision. if the money isn't there, if the country can't afford it, surely there is no other option but to cancel. ~ ., ., cancel. well, there are other options. _ cancel. well, there are other options, because _ cancel. well, there are other options, because what i cancel. well, there are other options, because what they i cancel. well, there are other i options, because what they could cancel. well, there are other - options, because what they could do is prioritise the northern section as i have said and we are prepared to have a conversation about how we can... we have been saying that the prime minister all week, and then protect the line south from manchester to birmingham so that when the country can afford it it can be completed at a later date. the city region together with the liverpool city region was the birthplace of the railways, we had the first railway stations in the world in city centre manchester. are we saying in the country in the 21st century that we cannot build a new station in our city? that's the message that the country is giving out the rest of the world, that we can't do big and difficult things any more. and i don't think it reflects well on britain. they are going to be, the prime minister will stand in front today of a slogan saying, long term decisions. these were long—term decisions which were taken to connect the country with high rail. he is ripping up those long—term decisions and taking some short—term desperate decisions as far as i can see in their conference this week. ii far as i can see in their conference this week-— this week. if labour form the next government. _ this week. if labour form the next government. do — this week. if labour form the next government, do you _ this week. if labour form the next government, do you think- this week. if labour form the next government, do you think they . this week. if labour form the next. government, do you think they would be a commitment to reinstating that link between birmingham and manchester, might that happen? i certainly hope so. and there is an outstanding commitment from the party to build northern powerhouse rail in full. like us, the labour party will have to look at what is announced today. but i absolutely hope to persuade them to go ahead with it and do what the north of england needs. but everybody needs it, because everybody who lives in britain travels across the north of england at some point and everyone knows it really isn't right. i have been making the point, sally, it always seems as though people here where i live and where i represent can be treated as second—class citizens when it comes to transport. my citizens when it comes to transport. my message back to all the main parties is, we are not going to put up parties is, we are not going to put up with that any more. it's not right, it's not fair. and to do this to the city region and this part of the world and they have a conference that says something about how politicians think they can treat the north. it's not acceptable, we are looking to take it in the way that we have had to take it in the past. —— we are not going to take it in the way that we have had to take it in the past. i don't see how this plan is workable, and i don't see how the conservative party can look themselves in the mirror given all of the promises they have made to the north. they are breaking those promises and disrespecting people across the whole of the north. shindig across the whole of the north. andy burnham, thank _ across the whole of the north. andy burnham, thank you _ across the whole of the north. andy burnham, thank you very _ across the whole of the north. andy burnham, thank you very much indeed. thank you. let's turn our attention to the roads. if you've filled up your car recently you probably won't be surprised to learn that the price of fuel has shot up. at the start of september these were the average prices at uk forecourts. £1.53 per litre for petrol and £1.55 for diesel. by the end of the month the average price of petrol rose by four and a half pence, to £1.57 per litre, with diesel rising by eight pence to £1.63. that means filling up a typical family petrol car now costs nearly £86 and filling a similar diesel car is around £90. we are joined now by simon williams from the rac, who's in bristol. good morning, mr williams. those are the numbers, how are drivers responding to this rise in fuel prices? responding to this rise in fuel rices? ,., ..

obviously bad news for drivers again. it's even worse, the picture, if you start from the beginning of august, diesel has gone up by nearly 17p per litre and petrol by 7p per litre. —— 11 p. we are nowhere near the record highs of last summer when petrol got up to 191 and diesel £1 99, but we are in a bad situation where the gusts are high and the pound is low. fuel like oil is traded in dollars so we need the pound to be as strong as possible against the dollar. to put that into perspective, in 2008, oilwas against the dollar. to put that into perspective, in 2008, oil was £1 —— $144 per barrel, but the highest we paid is £1 20 $144 per barrel, but the highest we paid is £120 so the weaker pound is hurting the what can drivers do? there has been an extra £2 on a diesel fill —— petrol fill and £4 on the diesel fill. the best thing to do is shop around. we have an app, you can save up to 6p per litre by shopping around. lots of supermarkets who are dominant in fuel prices have very

are restricting the supply of oil. the only hope is the economy in china has slowed down a bit, that has caused a slight drop in the price of oil, but we are in a period where oil, but we are in a period where oil is going to stay high and we can probably expect to see diesel go higher still because at this time of year the same part of the barrel that makes diesel is useful heating oil as well so it goes more expensive. but petrol is more expensive. but petrol is more expensive than usual because retailers are taking a higher margin. retailers if they were playing fair, would have petrol at £1 50, that they playing fair, would have petrol at £150, that they aren't playing fair, would have petrol at £1 50, that they aren't playing playing fair, would have petrol at £150, that they aren't playing fair —— but they are not playing fair despite the competition and markets authority actions. it is all based on the wholesale price, the wholesale price for petrol would dictate a lower price at the pumps but retailers are making a bigger margin. the supermarket in particular sell more fuel than anyone else, they buy more often, but they only owned about a fifth of the forecourts, so they could reduce the forecourts, so they could reduce the price. they haven't and it surprisingly is that what has happened in the competition and markets authority announcing price transparency, lots of retailers are providing their prices. the second part of the peace of the cma is they recommend a price monitoring body but without that, nothing is going to change. they need to reflect what is happening in wholesale prices and they are not at the moment with petrol. they are not at the moment with etrol. .. ~ they are not at the moment with etrol. . ~' , .. they are not at the moment with

returned home after being on display in a scottish museum for nearly 100 years. the nisga'a nation says the memorial pole was stolen from the mass valley in british columbia and sold to national museums scotland. the nisga'a nation says the memorial pole was stolen from the mass valley in british columbia and sold to national museums scotland. the museum has been working with the community the nisga'a nation says the memorial pole was stolen from the mass valley a special moment for this indigenous community in canada. their totem pole was taken 94 years ago. now it's back. welcome home to your ancestor. it's been a journey. a journey in more ways than one. this was the pole in the national museum of scotland, where it stood for many years. singing. five weeks ago, people from the nisga'a nation came to edinburgh for a ceremony ahead of its return. the logistics of moving the pole out of the museum were complicated. and the canadian military flew it home — back to where it belongs. it's part of our history because our pole was taken many years ago and it's come back to its rightful place. it's quite moving to see it come in. to me, it's a really big thing. my great—great—grandfather actually was the one - who carved the totem pole. national museum scotland accept the totem pole was taken and sold to them without the consent of the nisga'a nation, so they agreed to its return. it's beautiful to see it in the landscape that it came from, and put it into context of seeing it. and it's been such a fantastic day. for the nisga'a academic who campaigned for its return, words are hard to find. it's brought such a deep sense of relief to me, and i think i'm still processing it — now i'm going to cry! — but it's just... ican... icanjust... i can breathe now and i can... i can feel like myjob is done. and it's... it's here and we've done the right thing. later this month, the pole will be placed in a museum in the mass valley. for now, its return has brought a sense ofjoy and justice to the nisga'a nation. katie hunter, bbc news. ina in a moment we will speak to the former transport secretary now defence secretary grant shapps about that decision we are expecting from the prime minister in the next few hours confirming that the northern stretch of hs2 is after all going to be scrapped. time now to get the news, travel and weather where you are. a very good morning, welcome to bbc london, i'm thomas magill. a murder investigation is continuing this morning after a man was stabbed to death in brixton yesterday afternoon. it happened on coldharbour lane at around 4:45. emergency services were called but the 22—year—old died at the scene. this latest attack comes less than a week after the fatal stabbing of 15—year—old elianne andam in croydon, and a 16—year—old boy in edmonton on monday. tonight a candlelit vigil is planned in south london for elianne. the 15—year—old was stabbed whilst on the way to school last wednesday. a 17—year—old boy — who cannot be named for legal reasons — will face a murder trial next year. a planned train strike by members of the aslef union involving train drivers will go ahead today. passengers are being warned there will be no services on affected lines, and to check before you travel. it comes after a walkout by tube staff was suspended yesterday. and there's more detail about today's strike and what lines are affected on the bbc website and the bbc news app. the bfi london film festival kicks off today. ahead of its opening, bbc london has been given access to its national archive in berkhamstead. and one very special reel that was restored this year is the film pressure, which was shot in west london in the �*70s. it was the first feature—length film to have a black director — horace 0ve. he passed away last month, and leaves this film as part of a remarkable legacy. film—maker, photographer, artist, author. but really one of the people who forged a path for others to follow. immense legacy, incredible creative, and it'sjust an honour that the bfi is able to really celebrate his legacy with the support of his family. let's take a look at the tubes now. severe delays on the circle line are anticlockwise. now onto the weather with sara thornton. morning to you. a little bit cool out towards our suburbs this morning — a slightly fresh feel out there but plenty of sunshine and high pressure, ourfair—weather friend dominating our weather for the coming days, pushing frontal systems away from us and, crucially — the big story is — drawing up some very warm air from the south for the weekend. not quite with us yet so it is, as i say, a fresh feel out there first thing. through the day today, generally dry, a little bit of cloud here and there. the odd stray passing shower moving through quite quickly. a lot of sunshine, as well, and temperatures maybe even slightly above average for the time of year — at 19 celsius. 0vernight tonight, we are losing the wind a little bit and, under clear skies — largely, a little bit of passing cloud here and there — the temperatures again will fall away. like this morning, we're talking about high single figures in our suburbs — perhaps even a little bit cooler first thing tomorrow morning — ten or 11 degrees in the capital. but as i say, the big story is the one of the weekend — a lot of sunshine, high pressure dominating our weather. we're dry, we're settled and we're very warm — could see 27 on sunday. that's it from me — more on the bbc news app, of course. i'll be back with you in half an hour. hello, this is breakfast with sally nugent and jon kay. at around lunchtime today the prime minister is expected to confirm those widespread rumours that he's axing plans for a high—speed rail link between birmingham and manchester. the defence minister grant shapps was transport secretary for three years when another section of hs2 — the birmingham—to—leeds line — was also scrapped. hejoins us now. mrshapps, mr shapps, good morning. at exactly this time yesterday the prime minister stood on that very spot, looked down the same lens and told viewers he would take his time on this decision. now we get that decision. what changed between this time yesterday and this morning? well, actually, sorry to disappoint you, anotherfew well, actually, sorry to disappoint you, another few hours. well, actually, sorry to disappoint you, anotherfew hours. we well, actually, sorry to disappoint you, another few hours. we will have to wait for his actual speech to hear exact confirmation that i think, as you have said, he has taken a very close, careful look at that second part of the hs2 line, i keep reading hs2 itself will be scrapped, that second part of the line. the balance has to be given that that point has not been built yet, consideration whether it is consider with ploughing on. even though the world has changed. i became transport minister before coronavirus, given people are not travelling the way they used to, does it make sense to spend tens of billions of pounds that way where is there something else we could do it might be better? that is what we need to wait for in this speech today. need to wait for in this speech toda . . need to wait for in this speech toda . , .. need to wait for in this speech toda. ,., , �* need to wait for in

today. yes, of course. big things i have happened like coronavirus, the pandemic, brexit, ukraine. but at the same time, you have been in power during all these years. rishi sunak was chief secretary to the treasury, chancellor of the exchequer, he is now prime minister. you have been transport secretary. what does this say about the way that you as conservatives have managed this hs2 project in government? managed this h52 pro'ect in government?�* managed this h52 pro'ect in rovernment? ~ .. government? well, look, forgive me, i don't government? well, look, forgive me, i don't think—

don't think even... even our staunchest critics would argue that we could possibly have known over dillon echo and over 100 year coronavirus were terrible and i wish ours and cause of changes we have seen, including travel patterns. my 19—year—old son got a job last year and they said we just need you in the office three days a week. it has become very, very changed environment for travelling around. the coronavirus having three years ago, ourworking the coronavirus having three years ago, our working lives change. why now suddenly do you have to ultech hsz? ,. now suddenly do you have to ultech hsz? ,, . ., , h52? sure. of course, we were in coronavirus _ h52? sure. of course, we were in coronavirus during _ h52? sure. of course, we were in coronavirus during a _ h52? sure. of course, we were in coronavirus during a lot _ h52? sure. of course, we were in coronavirus during a lot of- h52? sure. of course, we were in coronavirus during a lot of that i coronavirus during a lot of that period, we have come out of it, we have the opportunity to see how travel patterns have settled down and they have not come back to that three coronavirus well. interestingly, a decision like this place do something about rishi sunak and the things he will be saying today, which is, rather than thinking about things in their term, he is prepared to take a look at difficult decisions, things like should wejust difficult decisions, things like should we just carry on because that is what we were doing even though the world has changed? and do the hard things. it is much harder to change track and something like this when you see the world has changed and it is just when you see the world has changed and it isjust a plough on. it will attract criticism when you do these things. he is prepared to take those long—term difficult decisions because he thinks we can get to a brighter future because he thinks we can get to a brighterfuture by doing because he thinks we can get to a brighter future by doing them and because he thinks we can get to a brighterfuture by doing them and he will say, i think, brighterfuture by doing them and he will say, ithink, in his brighterfuture by doing them and he will say, i think, in his speech today, that is in contrast with some others in politics, particularly of course he will say, i think of the opposition, who tend to chop and change on a daily basis, tuition fees one day... change on a daily basis, tuition fees one day. . ._ change on a daily basis, tuition fees one day... that is a bit rich, isn't it?! — fees one day...

that is a bit _ fees one day... that is a bit rich, isn't it?! that is a bit rich! - fees one day... that is a bit rich, isn't it?! that is a bit rich! he - isn't it?! that is a bit rich! he has totally changed his policy and how to get to net zero. he is now scrapping a multi—billion pound section of high—speed rail which he has been saying good happen for years. he might talk about long—term decision—making but he is making very instant short—term decision—making. however he brands it, whatever it says behind him on the platform. it, whatever it says behind him on the platform-— it, whatever it says behind him on the platform. with respect to you, these decisions _ the platform. with respect to you, these decisions are _ the platform. with respect to you, these decisions are

me, ithink, that complex and you are suggesting to me, i think, that it may not be a popular decision. that is almost a point. he is prepared to take those difficult decisions. he is prepared to challenge, you know, the sort of just plough on as you work even though the world has changed. i think that is very different from simply chasing opinion polls, which is i think what happens with the leader of the opposition, here it is very hard to know what that guy believes. i look after defence, i am 100% committed to, for example, our nuclear deterrent. i think it has been incredibly important given the war in ukraine, given the threats from putin. keir starmer is a buddy who supported jeremy corbyn, he wanted to scrap our nuclear deterrent and wanted to leave nato. rishi sunak is taking longer term decisions, nuttal is popular in short—term and police forget which brighter future. short—term and police forget which brighterfuture. i think short—term and police forget which

refreshing. deal and the government| understand how angry some people in the north of england securely are about this decision? even people who maybe would not have used these hs2 trains between birmingham and manchester saw this as an investment for the future. at other things would spring from it, that this was a symbol of your commitment to levelling up. they now feel really, really let down.— really let down. first of all, before anyone _ really let down. first of all, before anyone judges i really let down. first of all, before anyone judges this, | really let down. first of all, i before anyone judges this, we really let down. first of all, - before anyone judges this, we need to see the speech because there is a flip side to this, which is if you have tens of billions of pounds released, what could they do and what could they do for communities? i want to correct something. hs2 trains will still run to manchester, still come into manchester piccadilly, still run to leeds, they will still be a much fasterjourney time than there has been in the past and notjust because some of the section will be actually conventional high—speed or a new high—speed rail, but also because even the older section can have further upgrades too, for example, this digital infrastructure, which is the way the signalling works. but the third thing is, until people have heard what the money could be used for, and therefore the benefits across large parts of north, for example, it's very hard to judge the full package. but we do know from sunday that he announced £1.1 billion to improve 50 towns in this country, right around the country, that include many in the north. this government is absolutely committed to the whole of the country and it is right the prime minister makes it difficult decisions to decide how to spend that money. i think that is refreshing and welcome. but spend that money. i think that is refreshing and welcome. but this was called high-speed _ refreshing and welcome. but this was called high-speed 2, _ refreshing and welcome. but this was called high-speed 2, not _ refreshing and welcome. but this was called high-speed 2, not a _ refreshing and welcome. but this was called high-speed 2, not a little i called high—speed 2, not a little bit faster in 2. this was supposed to get people from london to birmingham and on to manchester quickly. if you can do this so much more effectively and efficiently and give people all these great new routes instead, why didn't you just do that in the first place? routes instead, why didn't you 'ust do

have told me that the coronavirus would change fundamentally the way people work in this country, how much they travel, how often they travel? i don't think anybody could have made that prediction. now that we do know that, are you suggesting, and i think labour may be, that we just plough on regardless with building something which is no longerfit plough on regardless with building something which is no longer fit for the world that we live in? that makes no sense. when in particular there is a cost to that and you could spend that cash and doing a bunch of other things. people have not heard what those other things might be. we will have to wait for the speech. but imagine if you lived in a town and you finally get that link you need to be able to get to the nearest city or you get some new transport infrastructure that makes your commute to work that much easier by car. you might then look at this and say, actually, thank goodness we are not facing building a high—speed rail where it doesn't need to be for capacity reasons any more and in any case thejennies will be notjust a bit faster but still significantly faster than they are today because of the high—speed rail being built —— thejennies will not be a bit faster. these trains arrive at piccadilly in the future. let's talk about your current role as defence secretary. there was some confusion over the last couple of days over whether british troops would be going into ukraine itself to train ukrainian troops after some comments you made at the weekend. can you clarify for us what kind of timescale we are looking out for that happening? i timescale we are looking out for that happening?— timescale we are looking out for that ha enin: ? ., ., ,, .,, that happening? i did not make those comments and

there was potentially a mix—up with a separate decision which is in fact that we have sent a battalion of troops that i have arranged to kosovo because the supreme allied commander europe requested

about how we will need to shift to training the trainers and that they will then have ukrainians who are able to train their soldiers in ukraine. 0f train their soldiers in ukraine. of course one day it may be possible, and it should be possible, after all we offer support to military around the world, in, i think we operate in 66 countries last year, we should not accept that putin thinks other countries should not be there. but that was not part of that particular discussion and, as i say, you didn't run the story at the time, it wasn't true and the telegraph changed a second front page so the morning paper would have looked different from the first one which appeared in the headlines. flan from the first one which appeared in the headlines.— the headlines. can i ask you about a sto we

your time. time for a look at the sport. we have heard the audio of the goal that wasn't a goal, or that was a goal but wasn't allowed in the game between liverpool and spurs and what strikes me is it is almost casual and matey. it strikes me is it is almost casual and matey-— strikes me is it is almost casual and mate. , , ., ., , ., and matey. it is unusual for us to hear this audio. _ and matey.

huge error, arguably the biggest we have seen since this technology was brought in but it gives an insight into the exchanges between the referee and the var team and the language they use... i guess what is interesting, the speed at which these decisions have to be made, and i think that is something that the referees, certainly the var teams are trying to do, keep the game moving up. that was the criticism of the technology, it slows it down.— criticism of the technology, it slows it down. you can feel the pressure- _ slows it down. you can feel the pressure. and _ slows it down. you can

right, if you are not clear in what you are talking about an actual period, this is why this error has come about and that is what i think it's really interesting to hear, as we will do in this exchange. morning. chaos, confusion, panic. it's all there in the release of this audio that led to the disallowed goal for liverpool against tottenham last saturday. with the technology and how it's operated in the spotlight like never before. as dan roan reports. saturday evening, and luis diaz appears to give liverpool a crucial lead against spurs. diaz! liverpool in front. offside flag's gone up, they're not in front. but in one of the worst officiating errors the english game has seen, a clearly incorrect on—field decision to disallow the goal for offside failed to be overturned by the video assistant referee. having lost, a livid liverpool said sporting integrity had been undermined, and requested audio recordings between the officials — and they were released. but in what referees�* body pgmol described as a lapse of concentration and focus, england had inadvertently confirmed the on—field decision to wrongly rule out the goal, rather than overturn it — leading to panic and confusion among the team at var headquarters in west london. having already apologised to liverpool for what they called a significant human error, pgmol said, to try and avoid a repeat, they would reiterate to officials that accuracy was more important than efficiency, enhance communication between the referee and var team, and ask the var to confirm checks with the assistant before a final decision. speaking before the release of the video, rival manager pep guardiola addressed the issue. you have to rely on the people there, but everyone knows they did a mistake and... and liverpool suffer the consequences of that, because in these type of games it's so important. but no worry — the consequences will dictate the players and the managers. don't worry. the farcical blunder that marred the match between spurs and liverpool here at the tottenham hotspur stadium has sparked arguably the biggest refereeing crisis that english football has seen, with mounting fears that the credibility of the premier league is now being undermined. many fans asking how officiating standards can be improved, why there's not more transparency around decisions, and whether var — a system brought in to try and help referees — should now be abandoned. the premier league says it's clear there are systemic weaknesses in the var process, and have announced their own review. but after this latest controversy, rebuilding trust will be no easy task. dan roan, bbc news. certainly some pressure to bring about some changes following that error last weekend. having already made their worst start to a season in 34 years, manchester united now face a battle to qualify for the knockout phase in the champions league. twice they led galatasaray at old trafford, two goals coming from their young striker rasmus hojlund — this put them ahead here at 2—1, but galatasaray equalised again. united had casemiro sent off after a challenge in the box — and despite this penalty miss by mario icardi he made amends minutes later, scoring the winner. and it means more questions for manager erik ten haag. there was also a shock for arsenal, as they were beaten 2—1 in france by lens. they made a great start going ahead through gabrieljesus after a quarter of an hour. but lens took control with adrien thomasson equallising before elye wahi secured all three points for the french club. and it's lens who top of the group. tonight the defending champions manchester city are back in action, celtic host lazio, and in newcastle champions league football returns after 20 years. mbappe and ps6 at st james's park. what a night for the fans, the players and manager eddie howe. the swing of momentum has shifted so powerfully and quickly in a positive direction for us. i think my only sort of thought is to try and keep that momentum for as long as we can. and the power of which it has swung our way in part for me has been down to our home form and how we have played here. and we won't need to picture the scene, alan shearer can tell us, he'll be joining us just after 8.30. a rare tuesday night game in the premier league last night — burnley have their first premier league victory of the season bruun larsen scored a late winner as vincent kompany�*s side beat luton town 2—1. burnley move up a spot, they're third from bottom. luton a place above them on goal difference. iam sure i am sure alan shearer will have a word or two possibly on the var controversy from the weekend. he spends a lot of saturday evenings talking about it. we might get a word out of him on it, i am sure. the build—up to the bbc sports personality of the year has begun — and the nominations for the unsung heroes category are now open. it's all about recognising and celebrating the volunteers who make sport happen at the grass roots. here's the gymnast and olympic gold medallist max whitlock on why the award means so much. making it to the top of your game is the dream for so many people. max whitlock is the olympic champion! it's the pinnacle. but to get there, you have to start somewhere a little closer to home. there are community clubs and groups giving people all across the country the opportunity to get involved in sport. these places are led by amazing volunteers who deserve a huge thank you for everything they do. nominate your unsung hero now for a special sports personality of the year award at bbc.co.uk/unsunghero. joining us now is gabby logan — who has been hosting of sports personality of the year for the last decade — along with sam barlow, who won the

for many of us this weekend. it's wednesday the 4th of october. after weeks of speculation, the prime minister is expected to use his leader's speech at the conservative party conference to confirm that he's scrapping the second leg of hs2 from birmingham to manchester. labour's andy burnham, the mayor of greater manchester, accused the government of treating people in the north as "second—class citizens", while the west midlands mayor andy street, a conservative, was said to be distraught. our chief political correspondent, henry zeffman, is at the conservative party conference in manchester. this is a big speech the prime minister has to give at lunchtime, he has got a lot of people to persuade he is doing the right thing. it persuade he is doing the right thin. . . . persuade

been clear that something is up with the rail line or at least a portion of it from the west midlands to the north. but this has been the government's flagship levelling of policy since before levelling up was even a phrase and i don't think we should lose sight of that. you are going to have the government arguing that times have changed, circumstances have changed and therefore the rail line has to change. we got a bit of a rehearsal on this programme earlier of that argument from grant shapps. rather than thinking — argument from grant shapps. rather than thinking about _ argument

cancelling this rail line, his critics are saying, he is prioritising short—term gains like a perhaps a rail line here and there within a city or between northern cities, and thatis city or between northern cities, and that is just a ploy to win a general election. i expect rishi sunak will say, what he's doing is doing politics differently. notjust from his labour predecessors and sir keir starmer who wants to succeed him, but also from conservative predecessors who he thinks duct big and important decisions like grappling with the cost of hs2 and considering whether it might be better spent elsewhere. that is the really bold political manoeuvre that rishi sunak are trying to pull off. not telling the country that they are wrong to want a change, which is apparently the message that keeps coming back to downing street in polling and focus groups, but telling them that he, rishi sunak, embodies that change better than the labour party does.— labour party does. thank you very much.

the rest of the news. at least 21 people, including two children, have died after a tourist bus crashed off a flyover and caught fire near the italian city of venice. the dead include five ukrainians, one german and the italian driver. our reporter louisa pilbeam has the latest. this bus had been full of tourists returning from a day out in venice. now burnt out and overturned. from high up where it veered through crash barriers, you can see the drop. it plunged off this bridge and burst into flames. translation: we lifted the bus to have mathematical— certainty that there were no other people underneath. as you've seen, the bus flipped upside down. the impact was terrible because it fell from over ten metres. there were 39 people, it wasn't easy. in the impact, the electric batteries of the bus caught fire. ukrainians, germans and french nationals are so far believed to be among the dead, according to italian officials. the mayor of venice was at the scene and gave an idea of the scale of casualties at the time. translation: 19 are here. two died in the hospital, so it's 21 now. some of them are ok. then there are some critical in padua. some burned. four children died for now. it happened across the water from venice's tourist centre in the mestre district last night. now, as investigators try to find out how this happened, the italian transport minister has said the driver believed to be among the dead could have suddenly become unwell. louisa pilbeam, bbc news. a man in his 505 has been seriously injured by a dog in sunderland, according to northumbria police. it happened in the shiney row area just before seven o'clock last night. the dog, whose breed has not been revealed, was shot by police, and a second dog was also seized. a 44—year—old man was arrested. the government is paying the highest amount of interest on its national debt in 20 years. it currently owes about £2.59 trillion, but a rise in the cost of borrowing means the chancellorjeremy hunt will need to find another £23 billion to cover the interest ahead of his autumn statement. the republican speaker of the us house of representatives, kevin mccarthy, has been ousted by members of his own party. the speaker is one of the most powerful roles in us politics and has never been removed before. mr mccarthy only took the office injanuary. large parts of the railway network are at a standstill today as train drivers strike over pay and conditions. the aslef union says it has deliberately targeted the day of the prime minister's speech to the conservative party conference in manchester to raise the profile of its dispute. our business reporter ben king has more. this is the 38th day of strikes on britain's railway since the current round of disputes began last summer — and the 14th by members of aslef — bringing disruption to much of england's railways, and some lines serving scotland and wales. the majority of affected rail operators are running no service at all today — including avanti west coast, crosscountry, northern and transpennine express — with severely reduced services on others, including great western, lner, and southern. and there's an increased risk of disruption on thursday and friday, too, from an aslef overtime ban. prominent among the events affected — the prime minister's speech to conservative party conference in manchester. we've chosen to strike during the tory party conference because for 16 months they've been lying about us targeting various events, which we haven't. so we've actually chosen the target the people that have been targeting us, and it's no coincidence at all — we want to raise the profile of the problems that we're having on the railway, and we want a resolution. the union says its members haven't had a pay rise for over four years, but train operators say they can't afford to give them a pay rise unless working practices change. there is an offer on the table, and that would give the average train driver a salary of £65,000 a year for a four—day week. now, we think that is more than fair and reasonable, but aslef won't even consider it because we are tying it to the kind of reforms that we believe are necessary to fund it. the transport secretary, mark harper, has urged aslef to put the offer to its members and end the industrial action. but the prospect of a deal any time soon seems remote, with a growing chance of strikes affecting the christmas period and into the new year. ben king, bbc news. a woman is hoping to be named the world's oldest skydiver after she

sit at right at the moment, we are in widely double figures. a wet start to the day across scotland and northern ireland, some train services in scotland have been cancelled or disrupted so check before you set out. but for much of northern ireland away from the north and england and wales, are largely dry start with one or two showers. there are areas of cloud but it is high cloud so the sunshine we have is hazy. quite gusty winds across the north channel. through the day, the rain sinks southwards into southern scotland, the far north of northern england and northern ireland, leaving sunshine and showers behind. temperatures 11 to 19 degrees north to south. this evening you can see the band of rain sinking south, weakening all the time and pivoting round and starting to head back, and joined in hot pursuit by another heavy rain coming in across northern ireland. for most it will not be a cold night but across the north—east of scotland where we have clear skies, temperatures could fall away to two or three degrees. tomorrow, here is our first weather front heading north. the second one comes in right behind it, bringing in some more heavy rain falling on already saturated ground. also some of the rain getting in across northern england, wales and murky conditions in the south—west, the driest conditions in the south—east but even here, cloud will build as we go through the course of the day. temperatures, 12 in the north to 18 as we go towards the south. thank you, carol. an army investigation has found that a teenage soldier probably took her own life and one of the reasons was a period of relentless sexual harassment from her boss. gunnerjaysley beck, who was 19 and serving in the royal artillery, was found dead at larkhill army camp in wiltshire two years ago. a service inquiry report is due to be published later. jaysley�*s family say she was reluctant to report the harassment because of the army's inadequate response when another of her seniors was reported for sexually assaulting her earlier that year. our home affairs correspondent, june kelly reports. jaysley beck, filmed by her family at the start of her army career. she joined up when she was just 16, finishing her training in 2020. she'd be dressed in her combat gear. her mum leighanne and cousin lois with jaysley�*s army cap and trousers. remembering the day she was on parade when she finished her training. it's a massive achievement. and as a parent, to see your child happy is the best feeling in the whole wide world. that's all you want for your children. you could see she was really proud of herself. butjust before christmas in 2021, the exuberant young soldier with no history of mental health issues was found dead. an army investigation has concluded that she probably took her own life. an inquest yet to be held will decide officially. the army investigation found that one of the reasons forjaysley beck's death at larkhill camp was the sustained sexual harassment she suffered from her immediate boss. he wanted a relationship with her. she didn't feel the same. the boss, like everyone else in the report, is not named. in october 2021, jaysley received over a thousand whatsapp messages and voicemails from him. the following month, this increased to more than 3,500. you'd think the easiest solution is block them. you can'tjust block your boss. she were always down. she were fed up of his behaviour. itjust started ruining her enjoyment, a job that she really enjoyed doing. the army report describes some of the messages as controlling. jaysley feared he was watching her and tracking her movements via her mobile phone. her mum and dad and older sister emily knew she was reluctant to report what was happening. she was saying, "what's the point, mum, you don't get listened to." she's going to be seen as a female troublemaker. they say this was because of an earlier episode involving another of her seniors a few months before. that officer sexually assaulted her. jaysley was shocked when he was merely told to send her a letter of apology. the army investigation concluded that family issues, including a bereavement, were also partly responsible forjaysley�*s death. the family are questioning this. i think they're trying to put a lot on the family. they've kind of said we're partly to blame for the passing of our daughter. they've missed a lot out. and truth be told, i find it a difficult read. an army spokesperson said, "our thoughts and sympathies remain with jaysley beck's family and friends at this difficult time." june kelly, bbc

premiere of a new netflix documentary about his life. his wife victoria and their four children attended the event. the documentary focuses on the former england captain's childhood, family life and the ups and downs of his career. our reporter michael mckenzie caught up with him. i never really did well at school because all i ever wanted to do was play football. david beckham is a world—famous, much—loved athlete. he's about to release a four—part docuseries which will showcase not only his football career, but his family life. and last night, he was in central london at the world premiere of his documentary, beckham. david, how excited are you? i think we're really excited. you know, this has been a long time in the making. you know, i've been filming for the last two and a half years with fisher stevens and obviously netflix and an amazing crew about my life. so it's... it's been an incredible time, to be honest — you know, very emotional going over everything over the last couple of years. cos football come first and all of a sudden it wasn't. ok, david, big smile. it definitely didn't change me. well, he changed. there's no doubt about that. it's a documentary about your whole life — you know, ups and downs, you know — why now? why do you feel the time now, to put it all out there? you know, in all honesty, i retired ten years ago and people were asking me then, am i going to do a life doc? and, to be honest, i wasn't ready — i wasn't ready to do it then. but, you know, then heading towards, like, the ten—year anniversary of my retirement, i felt that i wanted to do something. i felt it was the right time. and then one of the — like, the lows that, i suppose, in the documentary was 1998 and the world cup. i mean, you talk about it in the documentary — what was that like at that time for you? it was a hard time. you know, i speak about it in the documentary and i found it hard to get through that part of the documentary because it was so personal, it went on for so long, and then rehashing it and going over it and going over the details and also archive that i'd never seen before. and then, david, what's been the highlight of your career? you know, because you've had an amazing career. you know, luckily, i've had many highlights. you know, obviously to have a career that lasted 22 years professionally, to have played for the clubs that i played for, to have played with some of the teams and the players and the managers that i've played for. i always say my proudest moment ever was stepping out on to wembley for the first time, was representing england, was wearing the armband, was captaining my country — that, without doubt was my proudest moment. beckham, the documentary series, is released today on netflix. michael mckenzie, bbc news. it's been a warm autumn so far — which means we haven't yet said goodbye to the bugs and biting insects which normally fade away after summer. in one lincolnshire village, residents say a plague of creepy—crawlies is making them feel like prisoners in their own homes. crispin rolfe has been to find out more. i love gardening. i'm not even stepping out the door other than quickly out the door and into the car. i hung washing this morning, but i put long trousers on and a jacket on so that i can go and hang the washing out. summer is over, but something still biting in north somercotes. crowds of what people say could be mosquitoes, but which experts think are gnats, causing everybody to close their windows or get in the car fast. so what have you got here? just magnetic fly nets, just to stop things coming in, they're on all the bedroom windows. forjane and mum winifred, it's been the worst year they can remember. from what people have said, it's never been this bad before. you can't walk to the shop or anything without getting bitten. and if you get one in the house! of course, whether you're dealing with a gnat or a mosquito largely depends on the sound. shrill buzzing. this, that of a mosquito. either way, it's a problem also affecting nearby saltfleet. is this a mosquito or a gnat? that's a dying mosquito without question at the top there. where sharon lidington has tried everything to stop getting bitten. last night i could not go to sleep because there was two buzzing around my head. you just can't get them, they're just too quick. so i'm constantly... and we've got this lighter thing on so that tries to kill them, but that terrifies the dog because it goes tsssss! yeah, i can't stand them. i'd even move, they are that horrible. it's never much fun being some insect�*s lunch, but when you live next to vast swathes of marshland, like much of this part of lincolnshire does, it kind of comes with the territory. what's not helped has been a wet summer and also a warm autumn, meaning perfect breeding conditions for biting insects and complaints from communities, caravan parks and schools about what they're having to put up with. meantime, here's the good news. there are some mosquitoes that can survive right into the end of autumn, even the beginning of winter. and we've had some very mild winters. so there's no reason why you couldn't see the odd mosquito popping up to spoil your christmas day. of course, there are plenty of ways to deal with the problem, including having as many spiders as you can bear in the house. crispin rolfe, bbc news. apologies if that gives you the heebie—jeebies but they are everywhere. heebie-jeebies but they are everywhere-— heebie-jeebies but they are everywhere. heebie-jeebies but

best way to keep bugs away. this confuses me! steve in northampton says the easiest way to get rid of these flying insects, especially the little fruit flies, is to fill a shot glass full of malt vinegar. but what you do with it then? drink it or leave it there? frank says the best defence for mosquitoes is marmite. other yeast extract spreads are available. he says... back in 1998 i was a soccer coach out in america, plagued by mosquitoes on a daily basis. eating marmite on toast, and drinking it in hot water. they also hate lemon and scented candles can work. that is quite extreme.

morning, welcome to bbc london — i'm thomas magill. more now on the future of hs2 — and the bbc understands the prime minster rishi sunak will confirm later today it will start at euston instead of old oak common. it comes after weeks of speculation the new high—speed line would be cut back — and that it would start at the new terminal that's under construction in west london to save money. work at euston station was halted injuly amid spiralling costs. a planned train strike by members of the aslef union involving train drivers will go ahead today. passengers are being warned there will be no services on affected lines and to check before you travel. it comes after a walkout by tube staff was suspended yesterday. and there's more detail about today's strike and what lines are affected on the bbc website and the bbc news app. the bfi london film festival kicks off today. ahead of its opening bbc london has been given access to its national archive in berkhamstead. and one very special reel that was restored this year is the film pressure, which was shot in west london in the '705. it was the first feature—length film to have a black director — horace ove. he passed away last month, and leaves this film as part of a remarkable legacy. film—maker, photographer, artist, author. but really one of the people who forged a path for others to follow. immense legacy, incredible creative, and it'sjust an honour that the bfi is able to really celebrate his legacy with the support of his family. let's take a look at the tubes now. there's no service on the circle line clockwise, severe delays between earl's court and upminster on the district line, and no service between liverpool street and barking on the hammersmith & city — all while they fix a faulty train at mile end. now onto the weather with sara thornton. morning to you. a little bit cool out towards our suburbs this morning — a slightly fresh feel out there but plenty of sunshine and high pressure, ourfair—weather friend dominating our weather for the coming days, pushing frontal systems away from us and, crucially — the big story is — drawing up some very warm air from the south for the weekend. not quite with us yet so it is, as i say, a fresh feel out there first thing. through the day today, generally dry, a little bit of cloud here and there. the odd stray passing shower moving through quite quickly. a lot of sunshine, as well, and temperatures maybe even slightly above average for the time of year — at 19 celsius. overnight tonight, we are losing the wind a little bit and, under clear skies — largely, a little bit of passing cloud here and there — the temperatures again will fall away. like this morning, we're talking about high single figures in our suburbs — perhaps even a little bit cooler first thing tomorrow morning — ten or 11 degrees in the capital. but as i say, the big story is the one of the weekend — a lot of sunshine, high pressure dominating our weather. we're dry, we're settled and we're very warm — could see 27 on sunday. that's it from me — more on the bbc news app, of course. i'll be back with you in half an hour. hello, this is breakfast with sally nugent and jon kay. as we've been hearing, later today the prime minister is expected to announce that the hs2 link between birmingham and manchester is to be scrapped — after weeks of speculation. well, ben is here and has been taking a look at the details. and taking a look at the details. also about what the m be and also about what the money might be spent i instead. but mike. there will be a lot of attention on what exactly the prime minister says later — because investment, jobs, and businesses will all be affected by this. notjust by the expected scrapping of hs2 north of birmingham — but also by whatever alternatives are put forward. let me remind you what's at stake here. hs2 is a massive project. this is the original plan — to create high—speed rail links between london and major cities in the midlands and north of england. the scale of it is immense. it will cost tens of billions of pounds and is aimed at cutting journey times and increasing capacity. but this eastern leg was scrapped by the government in 2021. and this second phase between birmingham and manchester — which was delayed already — is now understood to be scrapped. and it's down to the cost. the project was originally budgeted at 33 billion back in 2010. but according to the latest official estimates in 2019 that had more than doubled, and that could have risen even further since. but what is the issue with the rail network in the north? well, my colleague danny savage has been finding out. whatever ticket you've got now, you will get a refund for it, ok? monday evening, been working in manchester all day today, was due to get the 6.30pm train back across the pennines, but that was cancelled, so got the next one. this is it behind me. it's now broken down midway between manchester and huddersfield. £364 a month to go from leeds to manchester. so, i mean, even that... do you get value for money, do you think? no, not at all, not at all. but what's the other option? i drive and get stuck on the m62 for three hours if there's a crash. i think it should have always gone birmingham to manchester and then do the east—west part. manchester needs it. the difference in travel when you come up north is so different to how it is down south. it did seem slightly ridiculous that they've invested all this money in basically improving london to birmingham, which has never been a problem particularly. and now they're going to have this high—speed line between london and birmingham and, like lots of other aspects, the north is left behind. so with no northern link to manchester on hs2 — what could happen instead? well, hs2 trains could run on existing tracks. money could be put into improving northern rail links between the east and west. and there are calls from some conservative mp5 for a new line connecting liverpool to hull. plenty of attention on what the prime minister has to say and what will emerge from the alternative is a little later. expect that speech at lunchtime.— we'rejoined now by henri murison, head of the northern powerhouse partnership, which represents the interests of businesses and civic leaders in the north. good morning to use.

a national— it feels a bit like a national tragedy, at least an economic one. and i think my disappointment is that what we wanted to do was to bring the northern cities closer together, so that people who live in leeds or in the north east would be able to come here to manchester and on to places like liverpool and warrington, as if they were in a place like london, southeast. because if you live down there you can live and lots of places that are not that far from london and feel like you can get to london really easily. thatjust isn't the experience for people who live in this part of the country. as andy burnham said last night and i think again this morning, our economy will be smaller because of this and that is because productivity over the next 100 years will not go up. so that aim to close the north—south divide, to lead to reducing that gap in wages, so people in the north and £8,000 less than those in the south, without improving connectivity between our cities, without helping their economies grow more together, that gap will remain and that will have a huge impact on lots of people, many of whom never use a train. this is not about trains, it is about the idea that the cities of the north are essential to making us more prosperous and this government seems more interested in patting us on the head and spending a few sweeties in a few towns where they want to hold onto parliamentary seats and that is just not what public money is for, it really isn't. ., , . ., ., isn't. so if the northern section of hs2 isn't. so if the northern section of h52 is

the prime | position that we thought the prime minister might go far, but now looks unlikely, would be to still build a section of hs2 between manchester airport and here, near here at piccadilly station where danny is this morning. and the point of that would mean that you could get a train from liverpool through to leeds and on to the north—east and ideally onto hull but that was cut already a couple of years ago so this is not the first time this has happened in recent memory of me working on this issue. that would be another thing we could do. it won't bring as many of the benefits as hs2 , it wouldn't get more freight off the motorway but my understanding is a prime minister won't do that either so what that really does is mean we have lost both our new north—south line and also a key part of that east—west line and so whatever is left this evening when we pick up the pieces from this will be that all of the plans that the north has been offered over the last 13 years of this government will have literally been thrown into the dustbin. that also means the legacy and the work that former tory prime minister stick to convince people in the north of england has been massively under —— under mine. i think people have real trouble for voting for this if that new east—west line is not protected in some way. but east-west line is not protected in some way-— east-west line is

experts tell me, and i understand they are right, that the railways around manchester are really crammed and the prime minister has tried to create this argument between towns and cities. i don't think in the north of england we will be that easily divided because people in bury know that a successful manchester has made them more successful. productivity has gone up in greater manchester faster than in london but not in the centre of the city. it has got the most over greater manchester as a whole. so better links to manchester are proven to help the towns around them so if you want to help towns, the irony is the prime minister thinks you have to then take money away from cities and the evidence shows the opposite, the most successful towns here in greater manchester are places like stockport in terms of prosperity, much more prosperous than some of the communities around the city centre. that is because. has the best train service to central manchester. when you look at the evidence and even basicallyjust look at which places have been up and down in the last 20 or 30 years in the north of england, those places disconnect from the major cities have done the worst and rishi sunak doesn't seem to realise that thatis sunak doesn't seem to realise that that is just how economics works and economics in the end should be more important than politics, i think. henri murison, chief executive of the northern powerhouse partnership, thank you. we want the public reaction. reaction from passengers. nicky campbell is getting your reaction to the news that the manchester leg of hs2 is going to be scrapped. wherever you live in the country, you can have your say byjoining the conversation on bbc two, bbc news, 5 live and bbc sounds from 9.00. for many children, going for a school swimming lesson means a bus ride to the other side of town — especially as more pools close down. but one school in southampton has found a way around the problem. it's hired a pop—up pool and installed it right on the playground. emily hudson has more. these year—six children are learning how to swim. at first, when you float on your back, it was hard because you kept on sinking and all that. i like how it's fun and entertaining and it's... i learned how to swim on the second week. i learned, no matter how small or big you are, you can swim. i but to come to this lesson, they only had to walk out to the playground. this pop—up pool takes about three days to erect, fill and heat, and will be here at shirley warren primary for six weeks. it's costing the school £11,500 — but the head thinks that's competitive. the cost of swimming pool lessons and transport has gone up phenomenally. so we were looking at alternative solutions to kind of have it on site so that we can get more children swimming. and when we heard of the company being able to offer it, we snapped it up. the facility is owned by activeme 360, w60 who supply notjust the facility is owned by activeme 360, who supply notjust the pool and marquee, but the swimming teachers and all the floats and toys. it will be touring hampshire in the next year to help schools hit their swimming target. currently, one in four children leave primary school without being able to swim the recommended 25 metres. swim england fear that could be three in five children in the next two years. so definitely more of the deprived areas, there's more of a need for the swimming pools and the access purely because there are so many more schools within that area. the access to the leisure centres is a lot harder for them to get. so just having this access to a pool that can be brought to their school grounds, itjust makes it so much more accessible for them. one of the key teachings is what to do if they fall in water — the float—to—survive message. but it's also learning swimming can be fun. in so many positive ways it's affected the children — in, as i say, their confidence, their ability to swim, butjust the experience that lots of them have never had. and ijust feel privileged to be able to have been able to offer it to so many of them. we don't want the swimming pool to go. that was

a long time and the fans have had some real ups and downs over the years. bearing in mind two years ago we were still thinking will the takeover happen? where newcastle were, would they be relegated? to be this far ahead already and having nights like this already and having nights like this already is an incredible achievement and that tells you how well eddie and that tells you how well eddie

years, it has not been nice but the one thing that has been a constant either fans and that will never, ever change. they love their football club like no other. they will enjoy tonight, they deserve

dominating sporting news, the confusion is that we have heard the confusion is that we have heard the referees and the conversations around it, what do you make of it was white it is a mess, isn't it? you can use whatever way you like, chaotic, shambolic. a mess would be appropriate. i was listening to that last night, like everybody else, and it is chaotic. you have so many voices going on. can you imagine that being the referee, it is hard enoughin that being the referee, it is hard enough in a pressurised situation when you have to make a crucial decision, and you have four orfive voices in your ear pinging a way to you. it will not happen for a while, i get that, i understand it, but there has to be more communication. it happens in rugby where there is one voice in the stadium talking to the var official because there is no gain without fans. the fans mean everything, they make football. so they need to hear in the stadium what is going on. that is one thing that has to improve. you have got two people in the var room, the var and the var assistant and how can both of them get a decision like that wrong? i think people should be in that room and helping them make the decision to play the game of football —— we have played the game. not certainly at the highest level but it would help. we need better understanding. it is not going away, it is here to stay. we have to get on with it, put up with it. it has to improve going forward. they think they will have now is a trust issue because there were people anyway who were not believing in it, so we can imagine what

carol has got the weather. that made you smile. good morning. it certainly did. good morning. this money is not a particularly start doing a cold start if you are just heading out and as we go through the next few days you will find some rain especially in the north and west. some heavy rain at that. it will turn warmer for most of us but not all of us. i will explain why in a minute or two. we have got some rain at the moment moving across scotland, some showers across england and wales, the rain also getting in across northern ireland. high pressure is trying to exert itself across southern areas and this high pressure will drift a bit further east in the next few days. but you can see how we have this weather front. but you can see how we have this weatherfront. it moves north through the day and then sinks south by the end of the afternoon. some were heavy rain to come where we have had a lot of heavy rain recently across western part of scotland. it has caused disruption to trains this morning, we know that much, and behind it we are looking at a mixture of sunshine and showers and the rain sinking south into northern england and northern ireland. ahead of it, for the rest of england and wales, a lot of dry weather, some hazy sunshine and a few showers. gusty winds around the north channel. through this evening and overnight, the weatherfront sinks further south and weakens, and will pivot around and come back and, at on its heels is the next area of pressure coming our way. for most a mild night but under clear skies in scotland, temperatures could fall awaited to a three degrees. tomorrow we start off with this when it found drifting northwards. then we have this low pressure coming in with all its fronts bringing in the rain we saw getting into northern ireland overnight. during the course of thursday the rain will continue to push across northern ireland, getting into western scotland, western parts of england and also wales. quite murky around the coasts. the driest and brightest conditions will be in the south and east, but even here it will cloud over through the day. temperatures 12 in the north to 19 as we push down to watch the south. then there is even more rain coming our way during friday. a pretty wet picture across northern scotland and also northern ireland. some of it getting into northern england. it will be murky around the coasts and hills in wales and the south—west but push from the midlands east west and south east was, we are looking at drier and brighter weather with some sunshine. into the weekend, the picture gets more complicated. high pressure drifts further east, around that the air moves in a clockwise direction so we are pulling in warm airfrom the near direction so we are pulling in warm air from the near continent. direction so we are pulling in warm airfrom the near continent. at direction so we are pulling in warm air from the near continent. at this time of year it is still hot in north africa, spain, portugal, france. that is what is being sucked up france. that is what is being sucked up across i shores but you might have noticed a weather front dangling across the north of scotland. what has happened with thatis scotland. what has happened with that is yesterday the high pressure had moved it further north and it was looking like on saturday it would be dry for most of the uk. but we have an extra complication in the atlantic at the moment which is the remnants of a tropical storm, which is staring up the atmosphere. so at the moment it looks like that weather front will sit further south across scotland this weekend, meaning that if it stays where it is, and it could still change, we will see some rain that will hold back the temperatures with some showers getting into northern ireland. but still on saturday we could have some sunshine and 20 degrees. underthe could have some sunshine and 20 degrees. under the influence of the high pressure further south, you can see there is a lot of dry weather in the forecast this weekend and for the forecast this weekend and for the next few days, with temperatures much higher than we would expect at this time of the year, peaking at around 26. we might, and it is a big night, even see a 27.— night, even see a 27. gosh, gosh. any sense — night, even see a 27. gosh, gosh. any sense of _ night, even see

smartest gear. including that coat. we don't need a coach like that at the moment, do we?! today, a range of those outfits — along with other memorabilia — are being auctioned off in london. celestina olulode went for a sneak preview along with the late actor's son. looks unbelievably like his dad! bond theme. daring, dangerous, and yet irresistibly suave. the late sir roger moore as james bond in the 1985 hit a view to a kill. it's a role he would play more than any other actor — a total of seven times. and this is one costume his son geoffrey remembers well. well, i was there with him when he wore it on set. and i worked on the film, too. not many people know that. but in his contract, he wasn't allowed to ski in case of injury. and here he is in the film, jumping off mountains with a parachute and skiing. so once he was able to, you see, he was, you know, a kid in a candy store — you just couldn't get him off the skis. he just absolutely loved it. and i thought it was very brave of him to start at such a late age. more than 200 items have been put up for auction by his family. what does it feel like, walking around? emotionally, it's the first time i've seen it all from a box — you know, from a garage, from a warehouse. and then seeing it all here, it's the closest thing i'm going to feel that roger's here. you know, his spirit�*s alive. you know, really quite overwhelmed. it's a collection that includes a hollywood hall of fame plaque, lamborghini skis, and the first item of clothing roger wore as bond. you know, when we were talking about the overcoat from live and let die, that's the first time roger actually comes out and says "bond." when he says "bond, james bond", he was wearing that. bond girl susie vanner remembers his humour. what's happened? where are you going? it was just the most fun ever. he's so funny, so charming and handsome. and, you know, i mean, we were actually making love. well — we weren't atually making love, but we were supposed to be making love. but, james, i need you! so does england. well, as soon as you walk into this room, all you can see are the beautiful, immaculate suits. completely beautifully tailored. and i think that's roger down to a t because he was so... so charming, so debonair — you know, with these marvellous suits. he was very keen on looking good, you know? and i'm actually a little bit distressed to find there are no red underpants, because that's what he wore when we did our love scene together! and for collectors, there's a number of limited—edition items. so this watch was created for the 50th anniversary of the bond franchise. and here you can see engraved, "to roger, with love from barbara and michael." that's barbara broccoli and michael g wilson, the producers. i mean, what a fantastic, unique lot to have in the sale. i'm curious, how much is it expected to go for? well, we've got an estimate of £20,000 to £30,000 and we'll see how it goes on the day. but roger was more than bond. in 1991, he became a unicef goodwill ambassador. but this was definitely... i think he was most proud of. you asked, you know, "what's the best role you ever played?w he said, "good will ambassador to unicef." you asked, you know, "what's the best role you ever played?" he said, "good will ambassador to unicef." he said, "goodwill ambassador to unicef." to help children and use his popularity to bring awareness and do good. i think that's a... that's quite an admirable profession. the auction will take place at bonhams, central london, later today. celestina olulode, bbc news. he was such a

unveiled a new waxwork of the broadcasting legend sir david attenborough — 31 years after the first one was revealed. the new image shows sir david in his signature blue shirt and khaki trousers, and a working watch. just like roger's! look at that, an amazing likeness, a beautiful waxwork. everything isjust perfect. it goes on show at the end of october. the finishing touches there, so

breakfast, it's 8:59. good morning, welcome to the nation's phone—in. have your say on the biggest issues of the day. this morning... hs2 — is rishi sunak right? after weeks of speculation, the prime minister is expected to announce that the hs2 high—speed rail line from west midlands to manchester will be scrapped. we have waited and waited, but eventually it has arrived. well, at least it has arrived. is he right? for business people and commuters and travellers, nice to be able to get from leeds to liverpool, frankly. decent fares, and comfort, what about better roads? is this such a national embarrassment? this is letting down millions. cancelling the future. strong words are being used, strong phrases such as that one. and where does the buck stop? where does the chain stop?
