courted controversy. good morning. a fairly cloudy and breezy day. spots of drizzle here and there. also remain living in from the north and west of scotland, where it will be windy. wherever you are, it will be very mild for the time of year. all the details later in the programme. it's wednesday, the 22nd of november. the chancellor is expected to cut national insurance for millions of workers as part of his autumn statement later today. jeremy hunt will also set out measures to boost business investment but labour said nothing that's announced will change the conservatives�* appalling economic record. let's find out more from ben, who's in hull this morning. it is now a waiting game, i guess. it is now a waiting game, i guess. it is now a waiting game, i guess. it is a waiting game. we have had days of speculation about what the chancellor will announce in the autumn statement. at lunchtime today we finally find out. i am at this community centre in hull which helps people with cost of living pressures many are still feeling. look at this idea is tree! time banking, sharing my things to help people with the pressures they are still facing. it is ideas the chancellor needs to share about how he will get the economy growing. things like cutting taxes. will we see a cut to business taxes, national insurance? then the question about what will happen to the rate at which benefits and pensions are paid. how much will they go up? will it be enough to help people with the rising cost of living while at the same time not stoking further price rises, which the government has said it has succeeded in its goal of bringing it down to a lot lower than it had been? i will be speaking to at this community centre in hull to find out what they want to hear and the priorities they feel should be. lets hear from my _ priorities they feel should be. lets hear from my colleague first. on a cold, damp day at this south london market, ask what they want the government to do something about, and you'll hear two big concerns that haven't gone away — energy and food. we used to get six oranges for £1, seven for £1, now its five for £1. lemons, ten for £1, now seven for £1. it's hard for the customer. it's hard for us as well. food may not now be going up as fast as the 19% rise earlier this year, but neither prices on average getting cheaper. and the benefit of cheaper energy hasn't yet flowed through. electricity bills — before we were paying, like, 1,200 1,300, now is coming more than £2,000. with the economy stuck in a slowdown caused partly by soaring prices and partly higher interest rates, the chancellor is expected to cut national insurance in today's autumn statement. jeremy hunt's treasury is now in a position to give some money away in the form of tax cuts without breaking his own self—imposed fiscal rules. but there's one big reason that the treasury can do that. that's because of how much money we have been sending the treasury in the form of higher income tax and national insurance since rishi sunak took the decision to freeze the thresholds, above which we start paying tax. in march last year, the average earner on just over £29,000 a year were pay tax on their earnings above the frozen personal tax allowance of 12,570. so the difference, their taxable pay would be over £16,500. but, by september this year, the average pay packet had grown to more than 32,000, dragging more of it above the frozen tax threshold. that means the average earner�*s taxable pay is up by over £3,000 — a much bigger slice for the chancellor to take a bite from. that's hit low and middle earners hardest. if the chancellor goes ahead and gives some of that back by cutting national insurance rates, it's likely to be higher earners who benefit most. so ultimately, what we're expecting to see is a tax reshuffle rather than a tax cut per se. most households will be worse off as a result of the frozen tax threshold. only those earning between £40,000 and £50,000 will expect to see their tax burden fall. and so really, this is a shift of the tax burden from high income britain to middle income britain. the government's also announced its raising the minimum wage to £11.44 an hour, up nearly 10% for many of the lowest paid, but also a higher cost for employers, which may force many of them to push up prices yet again. andy verity, bbc news, elephant and castle. the autumn statement today is about numbers, the economy can also about politics. we'rejoined now by our chief political correspondent henry zeffman, who is in downing street. the chancellor will emerge from their later to reveal the precise details. what is it telling us about the overall directions and policy of the overall directions and policy of the government?— the government? only 'ust over a ear auo the government? only 'ust over a year age jeremy h the government? only 'ust over a year ago jeremy hunt _ the government? onlyjust over a year ago jeremy hunt was - the government? onlyjust over a year ago jeremy hunt was made l year agojeremy hunt was made chancellor by liz truss, remember her? he had the fairly gloomy task of unpicking her own mini budget in the ottoman trying to restore public confidence in the markets. he has had a fairly gloomy task since then, dealing with the cost of living crisis, trying to grapple with inflation and politically telling conservative mps and voters tax cuts will have to wait. today we will get optimisticjeremy hunt by telling the public and the conservative party that now is the time for some tax cuts. we are expecting business tax cuts. we are expecting business tax cuts. we are expecting business tax cuts and personal tax cuts, specifically a cut in national insurance and government will argue is a tax cut specifically for workers, to encourage work and boost those who are in work. if you think about the politics of this, well, we all know a general election is round the corner, taking place almost certainly at some point next year. the government is trying to argue that now that the tough times are fading, definitely not out of the way that they are the ones who can be trusted to cut taxes, bring down national debt and so on. the labour party will argue today can hang on a second,it party will argue today can hang on a second, it is on this government's watch that taxes got so high, even if they are shedding a bit of national insurance, they are shaving a bit of the high tax burden on the public. how the argument plays out is notjust public. how the argument plays out is not just for today public. how the argument plays out is notjust for today but public. how the argument plays out is not just for today but there public. how the argument plays out is notjust for today but there next year. it is a question of whether the conservatives can turn things around before the next election. thank you very much indeed. we will talk to henry later about the autumn statement. and you can follow the chancellor's autumn statement live across the bbc this lunchtime on tv, radio and online. sally has more of the news today. big development in the middle east overnight. israel and hamas have agreed a deal that will see 50 hostages released from gaza. a senior hamas official said 30 children and 20 women would be freed during a four—day pause in the fighting. reports suggest hamas may also release an additional number of non—israeli hostages, while dozens of palestinians will be freed from jails in israel. hamas is designated as a terrorist organistion by the uk. 0ur middle east correspondent yolande knell reports. here are some of the israeli children, who could soon be returning home. 0ria is four years old and loves football. kafir is the youngest of all those held. he's nowjust ten months old. israel's prime minister got a warm reception from these troops yesterday. speaking ahead of the deal, benjamin netanyahu said that releasing hostages was a sacred duty, but the war wouldn't stop after they were freed. israel's government met late into the night to discuss the agreement, only signing it off in the early hours. they announced that at least 50 hostages will be released — all women and children. that will be over four days while fighting in gaza will be paused. the release of every additional ten hostages will result in one additional day's pause. in tel aviv last night, campaigners stood together as ministers debated the terms. many here would pay any price to have their loved ones back. they fear that some hostages are already dead. i want everybody back. but i think... it's a very tough decision, but i think the children and women must be... they're most fragile. you know, they need to get out. for palestinians in war—torn gaza, the pause in fighting is the chance of a brief respite from israel's assault. more fuel should now be allowed in and hundreds more lorry loads of food, water and medical supplies. for doctors still holding out at al shifa hospital with some 250 patients, that aid can't come soon enough. again, the hospital has no oxygen. we have no access to the main pharmacy, so we've run out of all the medications. we can't provide anything to the patients. we hardly do anything for the deep wounds we have. again, just reminding you, we are not more than 15 of medical staff. palestinian families are also waiting for more news on women and child prisoners from israeli jails, who are set to be released under the deal. on all sides, there's cautious optimism with an announcement on the pause in fighting and the first hostage releases expected within the next day. yolande knell, bbc news, jerusalem. yolande joins us now from jerusalem. you are saying cautious optimism. what more do we know about any potential details of this deal? £31 potential details of this deal? of course, we have been saying for days now a deal was imminent. 0nly course, we have been saying for days now a deal was imminent. only in the past few hours we have had statements coming out from different sides. we have been able to pick through those and favour terms. the white house is quick to come out and welcome this deal. we know from a senior us official there are three americans who are involved, including one of them, a three—year—old child. both her parents were killed in the 7th of october attacks by hamas. then we 0ctober attacks by hamas. then we understand it is really going to be israeli citizens or israeli dual nationals who are released at this point. there are a lot of people who come from other countries being held hostage in the gaza strip. people from around 40 countries altogether. this deal has to have 24 hours. there is a legal mechanism in place in israel to allow for any appeal to be made to the supreme court. we are not really expecting anything meaningful to happen but that is why we are not going to see this pause in fighting starting for another day or the release of hostages until tomorrow, we think.— or the release of hostages until tomorrow, we think. thank you very much indeed- _ police in north wales are trying to establish the cause of a car accident in which four teenage boys died near tremadog in gwynedd. jevon hirst, harvey 0wen, wilf henderson and hugo morris had been missing since sunday. it's thought they were camping in eyriri, also known as snowdonia. louisa pilbeam reports. teenagersjevon hirst, harvey 0wen, wilf henderson and hugo morris were school friends, who had just started college together. their disappearance sparked a huge search after loved ones lost contact with them at the weekend. we know the boys left shrewsbury on saturday night after deciding to go camping in eyriri, also known as snowdonia. on sunday, the boys were reported missing and harvey 0wen�*s phone was last used around midday. yesterday, just before noon, police said they had found a vehicle near garreg. weather conditions on sunday were appalling in what is a beautiful but isolated part of wales. this was where their car, a silver ford fiesta, veered off the road. as a police investigation continues into what happened, tributes have been paid to the boys. shrewsbury college, where they had just started their a—levels, said in a statement... "our thoughts go out to those affected by this tragic news. we will be working directly with students and staff who are affected by this terrible accident and have put in place a range of support measures for all our community." the teenagers' families have asked for privacy. louisa pilbeam, bbc news. 0ur reporter sean toothill is in the town of garrig, where the car was found. desperately sad story. what has been the reaction from the community? shock and sadness, i think is the only way to describe the reaction in this community. this is the of garrig in eryry national park. it is used to hearing about people who have got lost but nothing to what we have got lost but nothing to what we have heard over the last 24 hours. this is the road leading to where the accident happened. 0r, this is the road leading to where the accident happened. or, as the police have called it, the tragic accident. it was closed yesterday and has now reopened. there are not many signs as to what happened yesterday at the end and a single candle which has been lit on a bridge crossing a stream, a tribute from the community to those found in the grey ford fiesta. the four teenagers were last seen my. this community is waking up to some news they are not used to hearing. this goes much further. tributes have been paying in from people in shrewsbury as well. shrewsbury couege shrewsbury as well. shrewsbury college group, who said it was heartbreaking and tragic, all four were doing a—levels. churches will be open today for prayers and thought. be open today for prayers and thou:ht. ., ., be open today for prayers and thou:ht. . ~ i., , be open today for prayers and thou:ht. ., ,, ,. , . the chief medical officer for england, sir chris whitty, is expected to finish giving evidence to the covid inquiry later. he's already said that the first lockdown in march 2020 was imposed "a bit too late," but the government had "no good options." the former deputy chief medical officer, sirjonathan van—tam will also be questioned later. ellie price has this report. next slide, please. it became the unlikely slogan of the time. the man we were so used to from those covid news conferences told the inquiry, in hindsight, the first lockdown was a bit too late. shall be the truth. the whole truth. and nothing but the truth. professor sir chris whitty said he had been more cautious about the measure than others because he was concerned about the other downsides to public health. but he said there weren't many choices on the table. all the options were very bad — some were a bit worse and some were very, very bad. he also said mass gatherings still allowed in early march 2020 had had a serious impact. the problem was not the gatherings themselves, which i don't think there's good evidence has had a major material effect directly but the impression it gives of normality at a time that what you're trying to signal is anything but normality. later, the inquiry will hear from chris whitty�*s former deputy, jonathan van—tam, affectionately known at the time as jvt. yesterday, the inquiry heard that he was seriously concerned a pandemic was imminent by the middle ofjanuary 2020 — more than two months before a lockdown was called. the strikers who score the wonder goals are the ones who make the headlines. actually, the hard yards are done by the defenders and by the defensive midfielders. tracking back, tracking back. it's a bit like being 3—0 up in a game and thinking, "well, we can't possibly lose this now," but how many times have you seen the other side take it 4—3? his press conferences were usually memorable, useful when you have an important public message to get across. his take on what was going on in government in those early months of the pandemic will no doubt also prove insightful. ellie price, bbc news at the covid inquiry in london. the four men found guilty of murdering ashley dale will be sentenced today at liverpool crown court. the 28—year—old was shot in august last year, when a gunman opened fire in her home, after a feud involving her boyfriend. the tv presenter and actress annabel giles has died at the age of 64. she'd been diagnosed with a brain tumour. after beginning her career as a model, she was best known for presenting a range of tv shows, including itv�*s posh frocks and new trousers. south korea has suspended part of a military agreement with north korea after pyongyang announced that it had launched its first spy satellite into space. the deal, signed in 2018, was intended to reduce tensions across the border. seoul says it cannot confirm whether the satellite is operational but it believes the north received help from russia. it is that time of year again. it has started. i love it! thousands of starlings have been captured swooping above a nature reserve near preston. the phenomenon, known as a murmuration, is believed to be one of the largest of the year so far. u nless unless you know better and want to send us a picture this morning. experts believe this behaviour offers protection from predators, as it's not easy to single outjust one starling from a whirling group of thousands. guess who has just seen a man oration?

telegraph reports on the israeli prime minister, benjamin netenyahu, urging mps in israel to back a ceasefire in exchange for the release of hostages. overnight, that deal has been approved. and the

wimbledon in south london have been rejected. wandsworth council, which is responsible for part of the land, opposed the plans because of concerns about the impact on the local area. the club had wanted to build 38 new grass courts and an 8,000—seater stadium. bosses at the all england club say the scheme would create substantial benefits for the local community. the application will now be referred to the mayor. all this week we have been putting london's knife crime crisis in the spotlight. today we speak to youngsters who have been learning how to give first aid to stab victims. the sessions, lead by the organisation street doctors, not only teaches them what to do — but also how to train others how to save a person's life. i think that this is a way to empower young people and to let them know that they can help to support their communities, and that they have the skills and knowledge to help somebody else if they ever needed to. and i think it's important that these skills are shared, so that we can help more and more people. if they end up in this situation there's more support available to them. and just looking ahead to tomorrow, there will be a special knife crime debate hosted by bbc radio's eddie nester. that will be at 6.30 tomorrow evening. street performers say plans by westminster council could make it virtually impossible for them to perform their art in some of the capital's most popular tourist areas. the council is considering tougher restrictions after receiving an increased number of complaints. the covent garden street performers association — which is made up of magicians, jugglers, clowns and other acts — believe rules about pitch size, noise levels and props will effectively put them out of a job. one councillor a balance needs to be met so that residents and businesses are not unduly impacted. let's take a first look at how the tube is running. there's a good service on all of the network. now onto the weather with kate kinsella. good morning. it is a bright start morning. although there is quite a bit of cloud around, it is fairly high. so, some hazy sunshine and it's dry. now the cloud that has been sinking south through the night is actually a warm front, so the temperature relatively mild today. there's a lot of cloud around, some bright spells, some hazy sunny spells, temperatures reaching 11 celsius. it's going to stay cloudy overnight tonight. again we might get one or two breaks in the cloud. the temperature much milder than last night, a minimum of about six or seven celsius. a cloudy start to tomorrow, a blustery start to thursday. you can see this cold front sinking south. eventually that will introduce much fresher air from the north. so it's actually going to get colder eventually. but through thursday we've still got a mild day. it's quite slow moving, that cold front. introduces the cloud, staying dry, a few bright spells and temperatures reaching 13 celsius. it's not until the night time when the temperature will drop. a chilly start to friday. temperatures, as you can see, dropping off into the weekend and we are expecting some frost. that's it from me. there's more on our website, the bbc news app and on bbc radio london. but for now, let's go back tojon and sally. hello, this is breakfast with sally nugent and jon kay. as we've been hearing, the chancellor is preparing to deliver his autumn statement later. ben is at a community centre in hull to find out what people there are hoping jeremy hunt will announce to help them. good morning. we are at the murphy community centre in hull, which provides services for people struggling with the cost of living. it provides a warm space for people who may be struggling with energy bills. it revives a cafe where people can pay what they can afford for a hot meal. look at this selection of board games for people to play. one in particular has caught my eye. this one, politician. a game of strategy and luck. of course, today there will be strategy, luck and difficult decisions made by one politician in particular, and that is the chancellor when he delivers that autumn statement for tax and spending plans. we know there has been speculation about whether he may make changes to income tax, national insurance. there is speculation about what he will do in terms of pensions and benefits. one of the key thing is the chancellor has said he is prioritising is growth. now that sounds like a concept that seems far removed from people's everyday lives. but growth really matters. if businesses can grow they can take on more staff. that means more people working, earning money, paying taxes, spending in the shops. and did really then has a knock—on effect, as jessica really then has a knock—on effect, asjessica lane has been finding out from two businesses in hull about what they would like to hear from the chancellor about how he will try to promote economic growth. hi, there. have you got two can openers, please? i have indeed. i've got some in the bucket down here. mike's only owned this shop for a year, but says it's already been tough at times. sorry about the pause, but it can get you anxious really quickly, you know, some of the things that need paying. and they don't wait for you. you can't miss payments, you've got to keep on top of it. and as you can see with the store, it's stocked of everything. so there's many, many things i've got to keep on top of. and he says it's not just hard for him. we have old girls that come in that i said with for half an hour, crying about they cant put their heating on. see, i only have a radiator in here, because that's all i can afford crying about they can't put their heating on. see, i only have a radiator in here, because that's all i can afford to run, but i share it with them, and that's what i do. we talk to them, have a coffee and they go away feeling a little bit better anyway. what one thing of the chancellor announced in the autumn statement that would make a big difference to you? tax cuts for all. that includes on energy, on purchases, just wholesale tax cuts. he keeps promising us this and that and the other, well, if they're going to get anywhere near an election victory, which is highly unlikely, they're going to have to do something to support the people. just like in so many other towns and cities, businesses in hull have suffered, with covid restrictions, lockdowns and the cost of living crisis. there are plenty of empty buildings. but the idea here is to bring people into the city centre for more than just shopping. that's already happening here by the marina. on this one street there's houses and art galleries, as well as cafes and shops and restaurants. here, they say that's a real plus. it's becoming a bit of a destination. and that was the appeal. we've got two restaurants on this street. it cost £800 a day to run this one alone. and they've seen the prices of their main ingredients increase. the flour, we buy a 25 kilo bag, that went from being around £16, £17, to 28, 29. tinned tomatoes went from about £12 for a pack of six, two over £23 at one point. what one measure would you like the chancellor to announce that would have the biggest impact on your business? the thing for us just to give us some security and stability would be a fixing of the energy costs. if we can get that we could then budget. but at the moment we have that unknown. are our budgets at the moment correct? are we going to have to make changes month on month to try and meet that kind of increase? that for us would be gold dust. along with mike and andy, many others will be watching closely later in the hope the chancellor will be able to make a difference for them. jessica lane, bbc news in hull. let's find out from some of the people based here at the community centre what they think would make a difference. kate is one of those who runs the marfleet community centre.

find a sofa big enough. then, thank you. and you can follow the chancellor's autumn statement live across the bbc this lunchtime on tv, radio and online. i think it is about half past 12. we will give you a full summary and everything you need to know on the programme tomorrow morning. john is here to talk about the sport. and there is still a route potentially for wales? there is. disappointing night. but it was i was against them. because whatever wales did last night in their match against turkey, which they drew, they needed a win. that result was made irrelevant by croatia winning, which they did. whatever happened to wales last night of their chance of automatic qualification for the euros next summer wasn't going to happen. but there is still a route through the play—offs. morning. irrespective of what wales did in cardiff against turkey, victory for croatia in their match ended welsh hopes of qualifying automatically for the next major tournament in germany. but there is still a route open to them and their fans, via the play—offs in march, as hywel griffith reports. with a handful of hope but little expectation, fans came clutching to the idea that wales could still qualify for the euros with a win here and a loss or draw for croatia. determined to secure their side of the deal, wales started with intent, nathan brodhead shooting wide. but three minutes later, nico williams took his opportunity to put wales ahead. turkey failed to take their chances, and handed wales some too. but as they tired, wales were tested. time to hold on. perhaps a little too tightly. the refereejudged ben davies' push to be a shove. penalty. the referee has given a penalty. yazici bringing things level. it's1—1 in cardiff. johnson is onside. brennanjohnson thought he had put wales back ahead, but was ruled offside. the flag has gone up. and so, a frustrating end to a campaign that has seen wales falter too often. in the end even a win wouldn't have been enough for wales, as croatia secured a victory and a spot in the euros. so now welsh hopes rest on the play—offs, and a second chance in march. we've done a brilliant campaign, to be fair. just come short at the end. but yeah, i think we'll still do it on the play—offs. we can do it, but obviously their chances, it's much harder now for us to get through. it may require more than a little luck. some fans think a new manager may be the only way to get wales over the line. hywel griffith, bbc news, cardiff. disappointment for now but that red will be correct or will be in full voice again in march. —— in full voice. well as we know qualification for a team gb in women's football at next summer's olympics is at stake for england. and they too are up against it in their bid to qualify a side for the games. but a big boost in that aim — women's player of the year beth mead is back in the england squad after being out for a year with a really bad knee injury, named by sarina wiegman for the upcoming nations league matches against the netherlands and scotland, which they have to win if gb are to earn the chance to go for gold in paris in women's football next summer. she is a character that brings positive energy, on pitch and off pitch. i think we have more players like that. but it's good to have her experience, the way she plays. she's different than other players on the wing, so she brings different things. thta's good for the team, so we have different opportunities again. so, yeah, i expect on and off pitch that gives us some extra enery. yes, a big plus for england. and prince harry has been adjusting to life stateside. gone are the days of enjoying rugby at twickenham, or an england international at wembley. in its place, ice hockey. he and his wife meghan markle immersing themselves in everything american sport, watching vancouver canucks and the sanjose sharks here. even dropping the ceremonial puck to start the match. it marks the countdown to the start of his invictus games, to be held in vancouver in february 2025 — the first games to feature winter sports. he is clearly doing his homework, isn't it? i noticed he wasn'tjoining in the dancing though, was he? no. perhaps a little bit more reserved. thank you. meanwhile, the rest of the royal family have been involved in a state dinner, welcoming south korea's president to the united kingdom. he will also meet rishi sunak later to sign a diplomatic accord covering defence and technology cooperation. mr yoon is on a three—day visit to the uk and attended a state banquet at buckingham palace last night, hosted by king charles and queen camilla. our royal correspondent nick witchell reports. it is high—end dining in the cause of diplomacy, a state banquet with all the finery in the of buckingham palace. the king and queen hosting on behalf of the united kingdom, the honoured guests president yoon and his wife from south korea. alongside all the pleasantries serious business is done on visits like these — trade and investment, security issues. but it was cultural links that featured in the king's speech — k—pop, to be precise — and a cause close to his heart, the environment. it is especially inspiring to see korea's younger generation embrace the cause. i applaud jennie, jisoo, liza and rose, better known collectively as black pink, for their role in bringing the message of environmental sustainability to a global audience. sadly, when i was in seoul all those years ago, i'm not sure i developed much of what might be called the gangnam style. earlier, president yoon had laid a wreath at the korean memorial in london. it's 70 years since the end of the korean war, when more than a thousand members of britain's armed forces lost their lives defending south korea against communist forces in the north. current security issues will feature later today when president yoon has talks at downing street. nicholas witchell, bbc news. so, as nick says, that meeting happening in downing street later today. rishi sunak has got a busy day ahead. coming up to 27. carol is the weather. that is a beautiful sunrise. it weather. that is a beautiful sunrise. , that is a

and fog around. cold in eastern areas, not so in the west, where it is already mild. we continue with this mild theme through today. but after today it starts to change from the north. it will turn colder. on friday we are all going to get a cold blast of arctic air. what is happening today is we have a ridge of high pressure hanging on at the south. we also have a weather front draped across the north with a squeeze on those isomers. we are in the milder conditions at the moment. but when these weather front steps south, thatis these weather front steps south, that is when we see the colder air, more likely through the course of tonight and tomorrow. this week whether front is continuing to drift, taking its patchy rain with it into lincolnshire and norfolk before clearing into the north sea. we have also got some more rain coming to the north and west. the wind picking up the far north of scotland. blustery as we push further south. scotland. blustery as we push furthersouth. it scotland. blustery as we push further south. it is going to be quite a cloudy day as well. we will see some brighter breaks, especially to the shelter of the hills and mountains. temperatures across england and wales are generally roundabout average. for northern ireland and scotland a little bit above average. 14 degrees in aberdeen and belfast. this evening and overnight there will be a fair bit of cloud, some drizzle in the western hills, a weatherfront bit of cloud, some drizzle in the western hills, a weather front heads north and comes south and it will take the rain with it. behind it we will have some squally showers and it will turn colder. colder from the far north. 5 degrees in lerwick. we are still in milder conditions are pushing further south. it is as we go through tomorrow you can see the cold front sinking south. it takes its rain with it. showers in the far north. we are also looking at the wind strengthening in the far north of scotland, with gales in the northern isles. and behind this rain band we will see an increase in sunshine and showers. some of them will be wintry on the tops of the hills in scotland, at low levels in the northern else. ahead of that we are looking at a fair bit of cloud. we will see some sunshine. it will be a breezy day. temperatures three in lerwick, nine in glasgow, 12 or 13 across england and wales. for tonight into friday the weather front sinks southwards. the cold air filters by the south. overnight we could have winds of 70 mph in the far north of scotland. but friday, a colder day. some sunshine. blustery winds once again. these are our temperatures. five in the north, 11 in the south—west. add on the wind chill and it will feel colder. so, you will notice this and it is going

gear will not return for the foreseeable future. the motoring show was paused after one of its presenters, andrew flintoff, was seriously injured in a crash while filming last year. the corporation said resting the show was the right thing to do. for decades, the cars and controversies made top gear a hit with audiences. let's take a look. three, two, one... engaging power, full left turn. i got

—— that is the show. former top gear presenter vicki butler—henderson joins us now. what is your reaction to this decision the bbc has made to pause the production of such a huge show? well, let'sjust the production of such a huge show? well, let's just use the word pause and understand it. it doesn't mean it has been buried. it hasjust and understand it. it doesn't mean it has been buried. it has just been put on a shelf. i am sure it will be dusted off. it is such a global brand. it has been going on tv since the 70s and it has just evolved sort of every decade since then. it has become much more adventurous. but people have a real connection to it. i know i do from when i was a child. i know i do from when i was a child. i remember screaming up the stairs to dad when it was on the tv. dad, can i watch it? it is a family thing and it connects many people who adore cars. so, i don't think we should be too sad. and we should reduce —— rejoice the word pause. it reduce —— rejoice the

would be quite a boring watch. however, please be reassured that everyone behind the scenes, all the production staff, things are is meticulously planned as possible, with as much safety in place as

thomas magill. plans for a big expansion at wimbledon in south london have been rejected. wandsworth council, which is responsible for part of the land — opposed the plans because of concerns about the impact on the local area. the club had wanted to build 38 new grass courts and an 8,000—seater stadium. bosses at the all england club says the scheme would create substantial benefits for the local community. the application will now be referred to the mayor. all this week we have been putting london's knife crime crisis in the spotlight. today we speak to youngsters who have been learning how to give first aid to stab victims. the sessions, led by the organisation street doctors, not only teaches them what to do but also how to train others how to save a person's life. i think that this is a way to empower young people and to let them know that they can help to support their communities, and that they have the skills and knowledge to help somebody else if they ever needed to. and i think it's important that these skills are shared, so that we can help more and more people. if they end up in this situation there's more support available to them. and just looking ahead to tomorrow, there will be a special knife crime debate hosted by bbc radio london's eddie nester. that will be at 6.30pm tomorrow evening. street performers say plans by westminster council could make it virtually impossible for them to perform their art in some of the capital's most popular tourist areas. the council is considering tougher restrictions after receiving an increased number of complaints. the covent garden street performers association believe new rules about pitch size, noise levels and props will effectively put them out of a job. one councillor says a balance is needed so residents and businesses are not unduly impacted. let's take a first look at how the tube is running. there's a good service on all of the network. now, on to the weather with kate kinsella. good morning. it is a bright start morning. although there is quite a bit of cloud around, it is fairly high. so, some hazy sunshine and it's dry. now the cloud that has been sinking south through the night is actually a warm front, so the temperature relatively mild today. there's a lot of cloud around, some bright spells, some hazy sunny spells, temperatures reaching 11 celsius. it's going to stay cloudy overnight tonight. again we might get one or two breaks in the cloud. the temperature much milder than last night, a minimum of about six or seven celsius. a cloudy start to tomorrow, a blustery start to thursday. you can see this cold front sinking south. eventually that will introduce much fresher air from the north. so it's actually going to get colder eventually. but through thursday we've still got a mild day. it's quite slow moving, that cold front. introduces the cloud, staying dry, a few bright spells and temperatures reaching 13 celsius. it's not until the night time when the temperature will drop. a chilly start to friday. temperatures, as you can see, dropping off into the weekend and we are expecting some frost. that's it from me. there's more on our website, the bbc news app and on bbc radio london but for now let's go back tojon and sally. see you in half an hour. good morning. welcome to breakfast with sally nugent and jon kay. our headlines today... israel and hamas agree a deal to secure the release of 50 hostages and pause the fighting in gaza for at least four days. the chancellor, jeremy hunt, prepares to deliver his autumn statement. it's thought a cut in national insurance will be among the measures. will the announcements from the man behind that door be enough to impress people struggling with the cost of living? special prayers will be held in shrewsbury for the four teenage friends, who lost their lives in a car accident in north wales at the weekend. in sport. wales are made to wait. with automatic qualification to next year's euros now over, welsh hopes rest on a route through the play offs in march. # too many broken hearts...# jason donovan will here to talk about on 30 years of music, stage shows the legacy of neighbours. a fairly cloudy day for most of us today can also breezy. patchy rain moving across england at the moment. heavy rain across the north and west of scotland where it will be windy. wherever you are, it will feel mild. all the details later on in the programme. it's wednesday, the 22nd of november. israel and hamas have agreed a deal that will see 50 hostages released from gaza. a senior hamas official said 30 children and 20 women would be freed during a four—day pause in the fighting. reports suggest hamas may also release an additional number of non—israeli hostages, while dozens of palestinians will be freed from jails in israel. hamas is designated as a terrorist organisation by the uk. our middle east correspondent yolande knell reports. here are some of the israeli children, who could soon be returning home. 0ria is four years old and loves football. kafir is the youngest of all those held. he's nowjust ten months old. israel's prime minister got a warm reception from these troops yesterday. speaking ahead of the deal, benjamin netanyahu said that releasing hostages was a sacred duty, but the war wouldn't stop after they were freed. israel's government met late into the night to discuss the agreement, only signing it off in the early hours. they announced that at least 50 hostages will be released — all women and children. that will be over four days while fighting in gaza will be paused. the release of every additional ten hostages will result in one additional day's pause. in tel aviv last night, campaigners stood together as ministers debated the terms. many here would pay any price to have their loved ones back. they fear that some hostages are already dead. i want everybody back. but i think... it's a very tough decision. ..but i think the children and women must be... they're most fragile. you know, they need to get out. for palestinians in war—torn gaza, the pause in fighting is the chance of a brief respite from israel's assault. more fuel should now be allowed in and hundreds more lorry loads of food, water and medical supplies. for doctors still holding out at al—shifa hospital with some 250 patients, that aid can't come soon enough. again, the hospital has no oxygen. we have no access to the main pharmacy, so we've run out of all the medications. we can't provide anything to the patients. we hardly do anything for the deep wounds we have. again, just reminding you, we are not more than 15 of medical staff. palestinian families are also waiting for more news on women and child prisoners from israeli jails, who are set to be released under the deal. on all sides, there's cautious optimism with an announcement on the pause in fighting and the first hostage releases expected within the next day. yolande knell, bbc news, jerusalem. yolande joins us now from jerusalem. we have the headline of this deal being agreed but the details are crucial, aren't they? and what happens after that.— crucial, aren't they? and what happens after that. yes, slightly different details _ happens after that. yes, slightly different details revealed - happens after that. yes, slightly different details revealed in - different details revealed in statements by the different parties over the past few hours. we have been picking through those. israeli citizens, israeli dual nationals are expected to be part of the deal at this point. we understand there could be a separate arrangement for the thai foreign workers who are also among the hostages. that is not really clear at the moment. it's really clear at the moment. it's really media saying the breakdown of hostages to be released in batches is expected to be something like 30 children, eight mothers and 12 older women. that does raise a prospect for some families of seeing members of families released, some of their loved ones release, while others will stay in the gaza strip at least for now. then the israeli government has now put out a list of some 300 palestinian prisoners it holds in its jails, who could potentially be released as part of this deal. we are expecting 140 women and children detainees to be released. that is because under israeli law there is a mechanism whereby any israeli citizens can appeal again... that is because under israeli law there is a mechanism whereby any israeli citizens can appeal again... we are not really expecting that to happen till tomorrow.— not really expecting that to happen till tomorrow. thank you very much indeed. we're also going to hear from a hostage negotiator in half an hour to find out what might be going on behind the scenes. sally has more of the news today. her day at westminster. that's right. —— a big day. the chancellor is expected to cut national insurance for millions of workers as part of his autumn statement later. jeremy hunt will also set out measures to boost business investment but labour says nothing that's announced will change the conservatives' appalling economic record. our correspondent, andy verity, reports. on a cold, damp day at this south london market, ask what they want the government to do something about, and you'll hear two big concerns that haven't gone away — energy and food. we used to get six oranges for £1, seven for £1, now its five for £1. lemons, ten for £1, now seven for £1. it's hard for the customer. it's hard for us as well. food may not now be going up as fast as the 19% rise earlier this year, but neither are prices on average getting cheaper. and the benefit of cheaper energy hasn't yet flowed through. electricity bills — before we were paying, like, 1,200 1,300, now is coming more than £2,000. with the economy stuck in a slowdown caused partly by soaring prices and partly higher interest rates, the chancellor is expected to cut national insurance in today's autumn statement. jeremy hunt's treasury is now in a position to give some money away in the form of tax cuts without breaking his own self—imposed fiscal rules. but there's one big reason that the treasury can do that. that's because of how much money we have been sending the treasury in the form of higher income tax and national insurance since rishi sunak took the decision to freeze the thresholds, above which we start paying tax. in march last year, the average earner on just over £29,000 a year were pay tax on their earnings above the frozen personal tax allowance of 12,570. so the difference, their taxable pay would be over £16,500. but, by september this year, the average pay packet had grown to more than 32,000, dragging more of it above the frozen tax threshold. that means the average earner�*s taxable pay is up by over £3,000 — a much bigger slice for the chancellor to take a bite from. that's hit low and middle earners hardest. if the chancellor goes ahead and gives some of that back by cutting national insurance rates, it's likely to be higher earners who benefit most. so ultimately, what we're expecting to see is a tax reshuffle rather than a tax cut per se. most households will be worse off as a result of the frozen tax threshold. only those earning between £40,000 and £50,000 will expect to see their tax burden fall. and so really, this is a shift of the tax burden from high income britain to middle income britain. the government's also announced its raising the minimum wage to £11.44 an hour, up nearly 10% for many of the lowest paid, but also a higher cost for employers, which may force many of them to push up prices yet again. andy verity, bbc news, elephant and castle. we'rejoined now by our chief political correspondent henry zeffman, who is in downing street. henry, the government's key theme is tax cuts? that is right. for businesses and we think for workers. we are expecting tax cuts for businesses to mean a permanent introduction of something called full expensing filter basically means businesses can offset investment in plant, machinery and it against corporation tax. and for workers, we are expecting a cut in national insurance. probably not, we think, a cut in the basic rate of income tax they might get some suggestion from they might get some suggestion from the government today it will come in the government today it will come in the future. if you think about the politics of this, it is amazing we are talking about tax cuts. just two months agojeremy hunt said it would be virtually impossible for there to be virtually impossible for there to be tax cuts in this autumn statement. that is a real shift from the government. for his whole year orso the government. for his whole year or so as chancellor, jeremy hunt has been pretty gloomy. first he was unpicking liz truss's wn autumn statement when he was dealing with the cost of living, dealing with surging inflation. for the first time since he has become chancellor rishi sunak became prime minister, we will get cautious optimism from the government by telling the public better days are ahead, the pain in their wallets is going to ease. the question for a conservative party thatis question for a conservative party that is a long way behind in the polls and on his watch the tax burden has gone up so much is whether anyone is still listening. thank you very much indeed. and you can follow the chancellor's autumn statement live across the bbc this lunchtime on tv, radio and online. police in north wales are trying to establish the cause of a car accident in which four teenage boys died near tremadog in gwynedd. it's thought they were camping in eryry, also known as snowdonia. our reporter sean toothill is in the town of garreg, where the car was found. terribly distressing, sad story we have been hearing details emerge from. sean, what has been the reaction from the community there? yes, sadly, people here will be waking up to shock and sadness today over the events of the last 24 hours. garrig is in the national park, it is a close knit community and they are not used to hearing things like this happening. behind me is that how tamer could the road where the car drove along. it was closed yesterday. —— is the road. there is a single candle and has been let on a stone bridge in tribute to the four teenagers. tributes have been coming in overnight from shrewsbury where they are from. they include the shrewsbury colleges group where the four lads were doing a—levels. they have said and described what happened is heartbreaking and tragic and they said they will put a range of measures in place to support the community. a number of churches in the area has said thoughts and prayers are with their families. they will be opening to allow people some time for peace and to pray for what happened. what has happened will live for a long time in the hearts of the community here in gwinnett and further afield in shrewsbury. gwinnett and further afield in shrewsbury-— gwinnett and further afield in shrewsbu . ., , .

opened fire in her home, after a feud involving her boyfriend. the tv presenter and actress annabel giles has died at the age of 64. she'd been diagnosed with a brain tumour. after beginning her career as a model, she was best known for presenting a range of tv shows, including itv�*s posh frocks and new trousers. south korea has suspended part of a military agreement with north korea, after pyongyang announced that it had launched its first spy satellite into space. the deal, signed in 2018, was intended to reduce tensions across the border. seoul says it cannot confirm whether the satellite is operational but it believes the north received help from russia. the chief medical officer for england, sir chris whitty, is expected to finish giving evidence to the covid inquiry later. he's already said that the first lockdown in march 2020 was imposed "a bit too late", but the government had "no good options." the former deputy chief medical officer, sirjonathan van—tam, will also be questioned later. ellie price has this report. next slide, please. it became the unlikely slogan of the time. the man we were so used to from those covid news conferences told the inquiry, in hindsight, the first lockdown was a bit too late. shall be the truth. the whole truth. and nothing but the truth. professor sir chris whitty said he had been more cautious about the measure than others because he was concerned about the other downsides to public health. but he said there weren't many choices on the table. all the options were very bad — some were a bit worse and some were very, very bad. he also said mass gatherings still allowed in early march 2020 had had a serious impact. the problem was not the gatherings themselves, which i don't think there's good evidence has had a major material effect directly but the impression it gives of normality at a time that what you're trying to signal is anything but normality. later, the inquiry will hear from chris whitty�*s former deputy, jonathan van—tam, affectionately known at the time as jvt. yesterday, the inquiry heard that he was seriously concerned a pandemic was imminent by the middle ofjanuary 2020 — more than two months before a lockdown was called. the strikers who score the wonder goals are the ones who make the headlines. actually, the hard yards are done by the defenders and by the defensive midfielders. tracking back, tracking back. it's a bit like being 3—0 up in a game and thinking, "well, we can't possibly lose this now," but how many times have you seen the other side take it 4—3? his press conferences were usually memorable, useful when you have an important public message to get across. his take on what was going on in government in those early months of the pandemic will no doubt also prove insightful. ellie price, bbc news at the covid inquiry in london. we have some lovely pictures to show you from a nature reserve near preston in lancashire of thousands of starlings sweeping in the sky. the phenomenon, known as a murmuration, is believed to be one of the largest of the year so far. this is the time they'll start, isn't it? they fly around in big groups. is it a

go through the course of the day we will continue with all of this cloud and rain. north of scotland could see one or two bright spells. in northern ireland one or two brighter spells coming through. with the club moving across england heading in the direction of norfolk. you might see the odd spot of drizzle in the hills. also some breaks, especially in the shelter of the hills the further east

the northern isles. bale is further south. once again a mixture of big amounts of cloud and brighter spells. —— gaels further south. thank you. doctors have been told that they must be on high alert for measles. the number of children being vaccinated against the disease has fallen to a 10—year low. it's the first time in decades such guidance has been issues by the royal college of paediatrics and child health. experts say that at least 95% of children should be double vaccinated by the age of five, but the uk falls well below that figure, at just 84.5%. symptoms of measles include a rash that can sometimes start behind the ears, a high fever and a cough. we're joined now by professor calum semple, professor of child health and outbreak medicine at the university of liverpool. morning.

angry men, alongside tristan gemmill, who played a doctor in the long—running bbc soap. both men have been chatting to claudia sermbezis about the play, which was made into a film in the 1950s and is regarded as one of the greatest courtroom dramas. 12 men with the smell of violent death in their nostrils. what's the matter with you guys? you're letting him slip through our fingers. slip through our fingers? are you his executioner? nominated in the �*50s for best picture, best director and best screenplay, 12 angry men began life as a tv drama. you are going to try a man for murder. all those voting guilty, raise your hands. this week, the 12 angry men are in britain. six, seven, eight. patrick duffy is juror number eight. i guess we talk. each juror has to question their doubts and they have to look and see if it's a reasonable doubt or it's not a reasonable doubt. and it's very interesting to see the journey that 11 jurors can make in two hours, but they all do, with the exception of the one. it's all right. for patrick duffy, working so intensely with a small group is a joy, reminiscent of his dallas days. it was 16 years of working with my best friends. we became best friends. hagi and i became best friends on the day we shook hands at the table reading of the script for dallas in 1978, and we were best friends until the day he died. i was at his bedside when he died. patrick duffy has described this cast like family, too. he hit me in the face. tristan gemmell plays juror number three. he's the most obstinate, the most reluctant to change his mind. and he is the big sticking point that patrick's character, juror number eight, has in terms of swaying the room. things got out of hand and i am truly sorry for that. tristan gemmell grew up in kent and he's best known for his work on coronation street and casualty, after which he was often treated like a real—life consultant. i mean, for years after that, i'd always be in some public situation and someone would go, "oh, well, if he has a heart attack, we know who to talk to!" no, take him to the flipping hospital. you know! i'm not going to save anyone's life. written in the 1950s, 12 angry men remains a compelling text about socialjustice and standing up for what's right. claudia sermbezis, bbc news. evidence like that. great to see patrick duffy again. out of the shower. none of that happened! time now to get the news, travel and weather where you are. a very welcome welcome to bbc london, i'm thomas magill. plans for a big expansion at wimbledon in south london have been rejected. wandsworth council, which is responsible for part of the land, opposed the plans because of concerns about the impact on the local area. the club had wanted to build 38 new grass courts and an 8,000—seater stadium. bosses at the all england club says the scheme would create substantial benefits for the local community. the application will now be referred to the mayor. all this week we have been putting london's knife crime crisis in the spotlight. today we speak to youngsters who have been learning how to give first aid to stab victims. the sessions, led by the organisation streetdoctors, not only teaches them what to do, but also how to train others how to save a person's life. i think that this is a way to empower young people and to let them know that they can help to support their communities, and that they have the skills and knowledge to help somebody else if they ever needed to. and i think it's important that these skills are shared, so that we can help more and more people. if they end up in this situation there's more support available to them. and just looking ahead to tomorrow, there will be a special knife crime debate hosted by bbc radio london's eddie nestor. that will be at 6.30 tomorrow evening. street performers say plans by westminster council could make it virtually impossible for them to perform their art in some of the capital's most popular tourist areas. the council is considering tougher restrictions after receiving an increased number of complaints. the covent garden street performers association believe new rules about pitch size, noise levels and props will effectively put them out of a job. one councillor says a balance is needed so residents and businesses are not unduly impacted. let's take a first look at how the tube is running. now onto the weather with kate kinsella. good morning. it is a bright start tthis morning. although there is quite a quite a bit of cloud around, it is fairly high. so, some hazy sunshine and it's dry. now the cloud that has been sinking south through the night is actually a warm front, so the temperature relatively mild today. there's a lot of cloud around, some brighter spells, some hazy sunny spells, temperatures reaching 11 celsius. it's going to stay cloudy overnight tonight. again we might get one or two breaks in the cloud. the temperature much milder than last night, a minimum of about six or seven celsius. a cloudy start to tomorrow, a blustery start to thursday. you can see this cold front sinking south. eventually that will introduce much fresher air from the north. so it's actually going to get colder eventually. but through thursday we've still got a mild day. it's quite slow moving, that cold front. introduces the cloud, staying dry, a few bright spells and temperatures reaching 13 celsius. it's not until the night time when the temperature will drop. a chilly start to friday. temperatures, as you can see, dropping off into the weekend and we are expecting some frost. that's it from me. there's more on our website, the bbc news app and on bbc radio london. but for now, let's go back tojon and sally. see you in half an hour. hello, this is breakfast with sally nugent and jon kay. we have had some big news from the middle east overnight. israel and hamas have agreed a deal to exchange 50 women and children being held hostage in gaza during a four—day pause infighting. palestinian women and children held in israeli jails will also be released, and there'll be an increase in aid allowed into gaza. it's still not clear when the pause will start. qatar mediated the agreement and says it's likely to be announced in the next 24 hours. we're joined now by our security correspondent frank gardner. morning. obviously this is a story that has been developing in the last few hours. what can you tell us? what do you know about the deal itself? , ., ., , what do you know about the deal itself? ,., ., , , , itself? ok, so the deal is pretty much as you — itself? ok, so the deal is pretty much as you announced - itself? ok, so the deal is pretty much as you announced there. l itself? ok, so the deal is pretty| much as you announced there. it itself? ok, so the deal is pretty - much as you announced there. it will take place over a four day pause in the fighting. it is not the end of the fighting. it is not the end of the war. i want to make that really clear. both sides have said the war continues after this deal is over, which is quite depressing. hamas say, ourfinger is which is quite depressing. hamas say, our finger is still on the trigger. and israeli prime minister benjamin netanyahu said last night of the war will continue when this finishes. but in the meantime there is going to be a four—day pause which will see 50 hostages, israeli hostages, released in batches of around 12 or 13 per day. and during that time there will be no overflights of israeli drones and planes over southern gaza. there will be a pause in northern gaza. more aid will flow in, which is very important. particularly fuel. there is going to be a massive increase in fuel and aid into gaza. after that, for every ten hostages that hamas releases, israel will pause the fighting for one day. now we know they have got no more than 240. that is a finite amount. i think the negotiations are going to be very difficult about the others. in return, there are a total of 300 palestinian women and children who are eligible for release. and 150 of those are going to be released in return for the first 50. i know this sounds complicated. but it gives you some idea of how complex these negotiations have been. what this deal doesn't do, it doesn't end the war. it doesn't release all the hostages. and it doesn't begin to scratch the surface of coming up to a final peace agreement that sees israelis and palestinians living in peace and security side by side. we have seen the hostages' families desperately campaigning for their release. has there been any reaction from the families yet?— from the families yet? yeah, pretty much along — from the families yet? yeah, pretty much along the _ from the families yet? yeah, pretty much along the lines _ from the families yet? yeah, pretty much along the lines of, _ from the families yet? yeah, pretty much along the lines of, we - from the families yet? yeah, pretty much along the lines of, we will. much along the lines of, we will believe it when we see it. because they have been marched up the hill and marched down again so many times, their hopes and expectations have been dashed. i think we are there. but until those hostages come out, they are not going to be able to breathe easy. hamas have said some people have died in the air strikes. that is what they say. that in the israeli bombardment of gaza, which has been absolutely intense, the hamas run health ministry say over 14,000 gazans have died since israel began its retaliation to the october attacks. so, israel began its retaliation to the octoberattacks. so, until people come out and the international committee of the red cross is going out through the southern border, through rafah into egypt, and they are checked medically when they get into israel, until that moment i don't think anybody will breathe easily. it is a really nail biting, gut wrenching time for the families of the hostages. they have had sleepless nights, as you can imagine. sleepless nights, as you can imaeine. ., ., sleepless nights, as you can imaeine. . ~ sleepless nights, as you can

practical moment of actually moving them and getting them out? it is them and getting them out? it is aeoin to them and getting them out? it is going to be _ them and getting them out? it 3 going to be dangerous because much of gaza is reduced to rubble. i think you have to assume that most of these hostages have been held underground in tunnels. hamas is not the only militant, armed militant organisation, in gaza. you have palestinian islamichhad and other smaller groups. there is always the risk that somebody is going to take a pot shot at either the hostages, or their escort from the international committee of the red cross. hamas does not want to reveal where it has been holding and hiding these hostages. that is one of the reasons they don't want israeli drones and planes overhead. there is an awful lot that could still go wrong. what happens if one side or the other is perceived to have broken the ceasefire? these are some of the factors they are having to consider. so, it is still a very fragile, vulnerable situation, but it is a breakthrough. frank, thank you. one person who knows what it is like to be on the inside of this kind of situation is former israeli hostage negotiator gershon baskin. thank you for your time. i know every situation is different but you have been in the room in these kind of negotiations. what do you sense has been happening? take

indeed for joining us and sharing your insight and experience with us here on by cross. we have just had a reaction from foreign minister david cameron, who has welcomed the agreement. he says, this agreement is a crucial step towards providing relief to the families of the hostages and addressing the humanitarian crisis in gaza. the latest languor from david cameron. he says, i urge all parties to make sure this agreement is implemented in full. nowjohn is here with the sport. and wales again in another nailbiter? yes, whenever wales play it is such a big national event such as been their progress in recent tournaments. the way the fan base has come together. at last night, all eyes on wales in their match against turkey. they needed to win to stand any chance of qualifying automatically for the euros next summer. the problem was for them a lot hinged on the croatia result. with croatia winning, whatever wales did last night was irrelevant. but it is not doom and gloom. there is a chance of qualifying through the play—offs next march. that is what the fans will be hoping for. morning. wales made to wait. irrespective of what they did in cardiff last night, the croatia result elsewhere closed the door on automatic qualification. but hopes are not entirely over. it all started so well in a game they had to win — neco williams putting them ahead. they thought they should have had a penalty — brennan johnson bundled over. there was a penalty which went turkey's way — ben davies responsible for the foul. turkey scored from the spot and ended their hopes of the win they needed. immaterial though, with croatia betating armenia. and so they head to the play—offs in march. it's probably a stonewall penalty, one of the most obvious penalties i've seen for us, against brennan. the defender�*s got the wrong side of him, he runs into him and takes him out. it's a stonewall penalty. and we've conceded the softest penalty you'll ever concede. so, it's so frustrating at this level. the var check was over in ten seconds. so, i really can't get my head round it, i really can't understand how they've come to that decision. frustrating for wales. when the dust settles they will go again for the play—offs in march. settles they will go again for the play-offs in march.— settles they will go again for the play-offs in march. organisers of the wimbledon _

rob burrow�*s podcast seven this week, because it pays tribute to a rugby union star who died from motor neurone disease. this coming sunday marks the one year anniversary since the passing of doddie weir. now rob has notjust one, but two guests this week, both of whom knew doddie very well — it's gabby and kenny logan. he is a missed man, by not just his family but the people around him and what he done as a sportsman. i suppose in the end what he has done for the disease mnd which, as you well know, it is underfunded and needs as much exposure as possible. do you think more funding is needed in the hope finding a cure to mnd? definitely more funding. doddie was a good mate of mine. i want to do as much as i can. we did the challenge to the rugby world cup. we probably raised over 700,000. we were going through france on our last day, looking up with this beautiful hill. and this yellow and blue balloon just pops out of the sky. and people when, oh, my god, kenny, you've organised a balloon in doddie's colours. isaid, no, i haven't. i promise you, it's not. leeds rhinos colours. and it stopped everybody. and it was a real moment. kenny and gabby speaking to rob on the latest

his home town cub port vale, after seeing the impact actors ryan renynolds and rob mcelhenney had when they bought wrexham. robbie said, "my big love in football is port vale, a very small team in the uk, so somewhere down the line i ll have something to do with it." with that, sooner rather than later? something to do with it? very interesting. a new netflix series. well, he hasjust had one! it is

for part of the land, opposed the plans because of concerns about the impact on the local area. the club had wanted to build 38 new grass courts and an 8,000—seater stadium. bosses at the all england club says the scheme would create substantial benefits for the local community. street performers say plans by westminster council could make it virtually impossible for them to perform their art in some of the capitals most popular tourist areas. the covent garden street performers association believe new rules about pitch size, noise levels and props will effectively put them out of a job. but, westminster council says "we are not looking to introduce a ban on street performers. buskers and street entertainers are a vibrant part of our city's culture and a popular attraction for visitors throughout the city." let's take a first look at how the tube is running. there's severe delays on the central and minor delays on the district and hammersmith and city. now on to the weather. and cloud will continue to move in form the west this morning but there should still be some sunny spells. top temperature 11 degrees. that's it from me. there's more on our website, the bbc news app and

in gaza for at least four days. the chancellor, jeremy hunt, prepares to deliver his autumn statement — it's thought a cut in national insurance will be among the measures. it's also expected to include a cut to business taxes and tough new benefit sanctions — the question is how will it go down i will find out what they would like to hear from the chancellor alleviating cost of living pressures. special prayers will be held in shrewsbury for the four teenage friends who lost their lives in a car accident in north wales at the weekend. this is zeus, he was found abandoned on a

agreed a deal that will see 50 hostages released from gaza. a deal that will see 50 a senior hamas official said 30 children and 20 women would be freed during a four day pause in the fighting. reports suggest hamas may also release an additional number of non—israeli hostages, while dozens of palestinians will be freed from jails in israel. hamas is designated as a terrorist organisation by the uk. our middle east correspondent yolande knell reports. here are some of the israeli children, who could soon be returning home. 0ria is four years old and loves football. kafir is the youngest of all those held. he's nowjust ten months old. israel's prime minister got a warm reception from these troops yesterday. speaking ahead of the deal, benjamin netanyahu said that releasing hostages was a sacred duty, but the war wouldn't stop after they were freed. israel's government met late into the night to discuss the agreement, only signing it off in the early hours. they announced that at least 50 hostages will be released — all women and children. that will be over four days while fighting in gaza will be paused. the release of every additional ten hostages will result in one additional day's pause. in tel aviv last night, campaigners stood together as ministers debated the terms. many here would pay any price to have their loved ones back. they fear that some hostages are already dead. i want everybody back. but i think... it's a very tough decision. ..but i think the children and women must be... they're most fragile. you know, they need to get out. for palestinians in war—torn gaza, the pause in fighting is the chance of a brief respite from israel's assault. more fuel should now be allowed in and hundreds more lorry loads of food, water and medical supplies. for doctors still holding out at al—shifa hospital with some 250 patients, that aid can't come soon enough. again, the hospital has no oxygen. we have no access to the main pharmacy, so we've run out of all the medications. we can't provide anything to the patients. we hardly do anything for the deep wounds we have. again, just reminding you, we are not more than 15 of medical staff. palestinian families are also waiting for more news on women and child prisoners from israeli jails, who are set to be released under the deal. on all sides, there's cautious optimism with an announcement on the pause in fighting and the first hostage releases expected within the next day. yolande knell, bbc news, jerusalem. yolande joins us now from jerusalem. the headline is a deal has been done. clearly the optimism is with some caution as well.— done. clearly the optimism is with some caution as well. indeed it is. it is only after— some caution as well. indeed it is. it is only after talking _ some caution as well. indeed it is. it is only after talking about - some caution as well. indeed it is. it is only after talking about this i it is only after talking about this forcible day saying a deal is imminent in the past few hours we have been able to see the terms of the deal as announcement have come out from the different sides. we understand it is israeli citizens and dual nationals who are going to be the hostages were released. israeli media has in putting out a breakdancing there are 30 children, eight mothers and older children. for some families it is a difficult moment. they are looking at the prospect of some loved ones coming home while other members of their family may well remain in gaza at least for the time being. there is another important development this morning with the list of 300 palestinian prisoners in israeli jails published by the israeli government. looking down that list it is mostly palestinian teenage boys. many of them accused are relatively minor offences like throwing stones at israeli soldiers. they are from the occupied west bank and eastjerusalem. east palestinian women on that list as well. nobody accused of serious offences like murder. we understand 140 prisoners will be released in batches as part of this deal. the reason that list had to come out is an important legal formality had to come out is an important legalformality in had to come out is an important legal formality in israel. had to come out is an important legalformality in israel. the had to come out is an important legal formality in israel. the law state israeli citizens can have 2a hours to appeal about a prisoner release to the supreme court. that is why we are not expecting to see till tomorrow this pause in fighting starting or israeli hostages coming out of gaza in a meaningful way. thank you for the update. a big day in westminster. it thank you for the update. a big day in westminster.— the chancellor is expected to cut national insurance for millions of workers as part of his autumn statement later. jeremy hunt will also set out measures to boost business investment but labour says nothing that's announced will change the conservatives' appalling economic record. we're joined now by our economics editor, faisal islam. faisal, what more can we expect from the chancellor today? good morning from downing street. a bit of time out behind us in terms of music being played by protesters if you are wondering what that is. an important day, vitally important for the government and the chancellor. they are not only going to announce some cuts to personal and business tax but they are going to try to draw a line under three years frankly of rolling economic crises from around the world, which have affected everything. what they spend money on, how much they had to borrow, the rate of inflation and prices going up for all of your viewers. they are trying to say we are back on track as an economy after all of those waves from around the world had hit the british economy. they are going to lean very heavily on that figure for inflation we reported last week that halved. they're going to try to take all the credit for that, frankly. they are also going to say that now is the time to be able to give a little backin time to be able to give a little back in the form of those tax cuts. we think tax cuts to national insurance as the biggest reform. also cuts to businesses. they want to give confidence to businesses to invest more. we are going to see dozens of measures, over 100 measures, to try to loosen up the way in which business is done, pro—business measures, trying to get that rate of growth in the economy up that rate of growth in the economy up again. that is a big plan from the chancellor, jeremy hunt. [30 up again. that is a big plan from the chancellor, jeremy hunt. do you think it will — the chancellor, jeremy hunt. do you think it will make _ the chancellor, jeremy hunt. do you think it will make people _ the chancellor, jeremy hunt. do you think it will make people feel- the chancellor, jeremy hunt. do you think it will make people feel like i think it will make people feel like they have any more cash to spend? this is a really delicate balancing act forjeremy hunt. he is very aware of this. how much are you going to pronounce a turnaround when price levels are so much higher than two years ago for energy, full food? it is a very delicate balancing act, not sounding too triumphalist. getting that little bit of national insurance back again. even tomorrow, we expect to hear, and this may be a surprise to some people, that energy bills will go up a little bit having come down. this is a very delicate balancing act for the chancellor. he has his eye notjust on the economy but the political cycle. we expect that election within 12 months. the challenge for the chancellor on timing, a lot of the business friendly measures trying to jump—start an economy not growing, they do take years to come to fruition. he may not have that time for the public to see that effect if he wants an impact ahead of an election year. the lack —— election due in a year. police

part of a military agreement with north korea, after pyongyang announced that it had launched its first spy satellite into space. the deal, signed in 2018, was intended to reduce tensions across the

many about some of the other, what he called downsides where people not being able to use the health service and being pushed into poverty, that kind of thing. we also had an interesting comment about the systemic problems within government. there was a report in the february saying around 100 to 300 people could die from covid. nobody in government took that threat particularly seriously as a word, had it been say a terror attack. the anything worth pointing out you mentioned was the idea of the government following the science, something we heard a lot about during the course of the inquiry. that mantra became something of a millstone around his neck. it blurred the line between scientific advice, hisjob, and political decisions were not his job. advice, hisjob, and political decisions were not hisjob. we advice, hisjob, and political decisions were not his job. we will hear more about that theme today. we will hear from chris whitty�*s then deputy, jonathan van tan. he at their press conferences used football analogies, train analogies to bring things to life a little bit. i even remember him talking about his mother once or twice. he was a good media communicator and talking to the public. he will have things to say about whether he feels cited were used as scapegoats. he will also say he was seriously concerned the pandemic would be imminent, worried about that in january and no lockdown was called until march. we will hear more about that. more science today but potentially a few football references as well. and finaly, thousands of starlings have been captured swooping above a nature reserve near preston. the phenomenon, known as a murmuration, is believed to be one of the largest of the year so far. experts believe murmurations offer protection

continued to rise each year since 2020. the charity says this is due to the impact of covid and the cost—of—living crisis. our reporter dave guest is at the greater manchester animal hospital in

in common — they've been abandoned by their owners. these are just some of the pets picked up by the rspca in recent months. the rspca... the rspca. .. -- the charity says there's been a huge increase in the number of animals abandoned over the past three years. so far this year, the rspca has received almost 18,000 reports of abandoned pets. they reckon it'll reach more than 21,000 by the end of december. there were just over 16,000 in the whole of 2020, so if their prediction proves correct, it would represent a rise of 32.9%. the charity says it's the result of a perfect storm. the cost—of—living crisis means some people can no longer afford to keep their pets. then, there are pets acquired during lockdown, which have now lost their novelty. and, apparently, some are cast aside

coming up, as we've been hearing on breakfast, today chancellorjeremy hunt is announcing the government's yearly plan for tax and spending. it will affect millions of people in the uk and ourfinance expert, iona bain's here to guide you through it. the autumn statement is due to have a huge impact on your take—home pay and household budgets. there is going to be a rise in the minimum wage as well as possible tax cuts. i'll explain what it could mean for you. also on the programme, new figures show 20% of infections were resistant to antibiotics last year. dr ranj tells us the affect it's having on patients. this is pretty alarming and could mean there's a risk to people's health if it continues. i'll explain how some germs are outsmarting antibiotics and why not sharing your medication can help doctors tackle the problem. plus, this week we're celebrating the doctor. no, not you, ranj! it's doctor who's 60th anniversary. writer and executive producer russell t davies will be here to tell us why he made it his mission to get david tennant back as the time lord again. you are excited about that, aren't you? and strictly�*s head judge shirley ballas is quick stepping into the morning live studio to talk blackpool, murder mysteries and why her mum is her biggest critic! see you at 9:15am. brilliant stuff. we will see you then. i think dr ranj will make a great dr who. time now to get the news, travel and weather where you are. a very warm welcome to bbc london. i'm thomas magill. plans for a big expansion at wimbledon in south london have been rejected. wandsworth council, which is responsible for part of the land, opposed the plans because of concerns about the impact on the local area. the club had wanted to build 38 new grass courts and an 8,000 seater stadium. bosses at the all england club says the scheme would create substantial benefits for the local community. the application will now be referred to the mayor. all this week we have been putting london's knife crime crisis in the spotlight. today we speak to youngsters who have been learning how to give first aid to stab victims. the sessions, lead by the organisation streetdoctors, not only teaches them what to do, but also how to train others how to save a person's life. i think that this is a way to empower young people and to let them know that they can help to support their communities, and that they have the skills and knowledge to help somebody else if they ever needed to. and i think it's important that these skills are shared, so that we can help more and more people. if they end up in this situation there's more support available to them. and just looking ahead to tomorrow, there will be a special knife crime debate hosted by bbc radio london's eddie nestor. that will be on our evening programme on bbc one at 6.30. street performers say plans by westminster council could make it virtually impossible for them to perform their art in some of the capital's most popular tourist areas. the covent garden street performers association believe new rules about pitch size, noise levels and props will effectively put them out of a job. but, westminster council says, "we are not looking to introduce a ban on street performers and never have done. buskers and street entertainers are a vibrant part of our city's culture and a popular attraction for visitors throughout the city." let's take a first look at how the tube is running. now onto the weather with kate kinsella. good morning. it is a bright start this morning. although there is quite a quite a bit of cloud around, it is fairly high. so, some hazy sunshine and it's dry. now the cloud that has been sinking south through the night is actually a warm front, so the temperature relatively mild today. there's a lot of cloud around, some brighter spells, some hazy sunny spells, temperatures reaching 11 celsius. it's going to stay cloudy overnight tonight. again we might get one or two breaks in the cloud. the temperature much milder than last night, a minimum of about six or seven celsius. a cloudy start to tomorrow, a blustery start to thursday. you can see this cold front sinking south. eventually that will introduce much fresher air from the north. so it's actually going to get colder eventually. but through thursday we've still got a mild day. it's quite slow moving, that cold front. introduces the cloud, staying dry, a few bright spells and temperatures reaching 13 celsius. it's not until the night time when the temperature will drop. a chilly start to friday. temperatures, as you can see, dropping off into the weekend and we are expecting some frost. that's it from me. there's more on our website, the bbc news app and on bbc radio london. but for now let's go back tojon and sally. see you in half an hour. hello, this is breakfast with sally nugent and jon kay. as we've been hearing the chancellor is preparing to deliver his autumn statement later, ben is at a community centre in hull to find out what people there are hoping jeremy hunt will announce to help them. good morning and welcome to the marfleet community centre. i was looking at their menu. they have got breakfast and brunch. later you can get a tuna pasta for £3. that is the kind of thing they do here to help people with the cost of living pressure, somewhere they can come and get a hot meal. in some sessions it is pay what you can afford, such as the pressure people are feeling. we will find out later today what the chancellor has on his menu in terms of ideas to help people with cost of living pressures. getting the economy to grow. growth may sound like a concept far removed from our daily lives but it makes a real difference in places like hull and around the country, because if businesses have the confidence to hire more staff, to open their doors for longer, that is that economic growth. it means more people earning more, spending more, paying more taxes. and that whole positive cycle helps lift people's living standards. achieving that is easier said than done, asjessica lane has been finding out from two businesses in hull. hi, there. have you got two can openers, please? i have indeed. i've got some in the bucket down here. mike's only owned this shop for a year, but says it's already been tough at times. sorry about the pause, but it can get you anxious really quickly, you know, some of the things that need paying. and they don't wait for you. you can't miss payments, you've got to keep on top of it. and as you can see with the store, it's stocked of everything. so there's many, many things i've got to keep on top of. and he says it's not just hard for him. we have old girls that come in that i sit with for half an hour, crying about they can't put their heating on. see, i only have a radiator in here, because that's all i can afford to run, but i share it with them, and that's what i do. we talk to them, have a coffee and they go away feeling a little bit better anyway. what one thing of the chancellor announced in the autumn statement that would make a big difference to you? tax cuts for all. that includes on energy, on purchases, just wholesale tax cuts. he keeps promising us this and that and the other, well, if they're going to get anywhere near an election victory, which is highly unlikely, they're going to have to do something to support the people. just like in so many other towns and cities, businesses in hull have suffered, with covid restrictions, lockdowns and the cost of living crisis. there are plenty of empty buildings. but the idea here is to bring people into the city centre for more than just shopping. that's already happening here by the marina. on this one street there's houses and art galleries, as well as cafes and shops and restaurants. here, they say that's a real plus. it's becoming a bit of a destination. and that was the appeal. we've got two restaurants on this street. it cost £800 a day to run this one alone. and they've seen the prices of their main ingredients increase. the flour, we buy a 25 kilo bag, that went from being around £16, £17, to 28,29. tinned tomatoes went from about £12 for a pack of six, two over £23 at one point. what one measure would you like the chancellor to announce that would have the biggest impact on your business? the thing for us just to give us some security and stability would be a fixing of the energy costs. if we can get that we could then budget. but at the moment we have that unknown. are they going to go up? are our budgets at the moment correct? are we going to have to make changes month on month to try and meet that kind of increase? that for us would be gold dust. along with mike and andy, many others will be watching closely later in the hope the chancellor will be able to make a difference for them. jessica lane, bbc news in hull. we already know that the national living wage will go up. there is also speculation about possible cuts to income tax and national insurance. what do people here make of it all? rebecca is from citizens advice. in terms of the people who come to you for advice, help and support, what would make the biggest difference to them from the chancellor?— difference to them from the chancellor? so, last year was already a _ chancellor? so, last year was already a record-breaking - chancellor? so, last year was. already a record-breaking year chancellor? so, last year was - already a record-breaking year for already a record—breaking year for all the wrong reasons in terms of people coming to us for help, things like prepaid metres, crisis support. this year has been worse. things we are looking for today, we want to see if benefits go up in line with inflation. extra help with energy costs. and we want to find out about disability benefits. {line costs. and we want to find out about disability benefits.— disability benefits. one of the

which was 4.6%. figure, which was less, which was li.6%. how much of a difference would that make? 50. 4.6%. how much of a difference would that make? , , 4.696. how much of a difference would that

sound like a small difference and all too often the benefit bill, if you like, is seen as an easy target to make savings. but you have got to look at the cumulative impact. since 2015 we have seen a mix of cuts and freezes. if it is not gone up in line with inflation. foran if it is not gone up in line with inflation. for an average family you could be talking about an extra thousand pounds plus a year if benefits had gone up each year. it might sound small but the key minute of impact is massive.— of impact is massive. thank you. jan runs an organisation _ of impact is massive. thank you.

over if he is watching this morning as he puts the finishing touches to the autumn statement. we will find out what is tax—and—spend plans are at lunchtime today. thank you. and to everybody there. and you can follow the chancellor's autumn statement live across the bbc this lunchtime on tv, radio and online. we have been talking tojohn this morning about wales. doing everything they can to qualify and still not quite enough. no, missing out on automatic qualification. that would have been great. the pressure would have been off and they could look forward to a spotin off and they could look forward to a spot in germany next summer. as it is now we are plotting the path. there is a route through the back door, through the play—offs. it is now looking at how wales can qualify still despite missing out on what they hoped would have been an automatic spot last night. things not going their way. it is a long path though, isn't it? it is. they have to reset now. play—off in march. if they win that a play—off final several days later. so all eyes on the play—offs in march. that will be a home semi—final against one of finland, iceland or ukraine. win that and then it's place in the play—off final for a spot at euro 2024. so, all is not lost for the fans, the team and their manager, despite the disappointment of failing to secure automatic qualification. i'm pleased that it's a home draw. you've seen it again, time and time again, what our supporters do is incredible. this place is a fortress, let's say that. and we never disappoint, and the crowd never disappoint the supporters and help us get the results. croatia, now turkey. you go back to the austria game, ukraine game. you know, we've had some big nights here. and the crowd are massive in helping us achieve the wins. we've done a brilliant campaign, to be fair. just come short at the end. but yeah, i think we'll still do it on the play—offs. we can do it, but obviously their chances, it's much harder now for us to get through. there will be at home for about semifinal in march and that home support could be crucial in getting them through. lionel messi believes there could have been a tragedy during the crowd trouble that delayed argentina's world cup qualifier against brazil. the trouble occured prior to kickoff at the maracana in rio. messi and the argentina players went over to try and calm the situation along with their brazilian counterparts. the inter miami star said that the section where the trouble occured contained players' friends and family. argentina won the match 1—0 thanks to a nicolas otamendi goal the start of that delayed as the players headed back to the changing room before that game could get under way. there is a very special tribute to the achievmenets of former

given the show in its current format, the 2002 to now format, has been predicated on stunts and elements of danger and speed, how can you continue to do that in the face of what has taken place? it would have to be changed. and i think expectations of that show would have to change as well. are they halting it now at a point where, after years of struggling to replace its three most famous presenters, it was starting to get back to a certain level?— back to a certain level? yeah. i think you're — back to a certain level? yeah. i think you're right. _ back to a certain level? yeah. i think you're right. once - back to a certain level? yeah. i think you're right. once that i think you're right. once that original trio left, the 2000 trio left, it very much felt like following sir alex ferguson at manchester united. good luck. there was obviously such affection for those people. regardless of the reasons for their exit, there are a lot of people who still like them. the reviews for the series that came after those three leaving had probably been written before the show had aired. certainly chris harris and paddy mcguinness and freddie flintoff had actually turned it around. you have to say. they really had galvanised as a trio. and they had won viewers back to my thing. but it would appear the decision has been made because it can't go on. you can't go to work thinking someone might end up seriously injured or worse. it is traumatic notjust seriously injured or worse. it is traumatic not just for the individual but for the entire team as well. accidents happen. you can walk out of a trailer and twist your ankle stepping down the step. but when you are dealing with the kind of stunts that the show was dealing with, there is perhaps an element of inherent risk.— inherent risk. toby, we were 'ust talkin: to inherent risk. toby, we were 'ust talking to fl inherent risk. toby, we were 'ust talking to our friends i inherent risk. toby, we were 'ust talking to our friends at i inherent risk. toby, we were just talking to our friends at morning | talking to our friends at morning live. they are going to be with russell t davies later, talking about doctor who and how it has changed and reinvented itself. i suppose doctor who —— top gear has shown it can be more successful than others. i guess it can do that in the future again?— others. i guess it can do that in the future again? well, certainly. i don't know— the future again? well, certainly. i don't know if— the future again? well, certainly. i don't know if the _ the future again? well, certainly. i don't know if the three _ the future again? well, certainly. i don't know if the three are - the future again? well, certainly. i don't know if the three are going i the future again? well, certainly. i | don't know if the three are going to regenerate into some of the original presenters like angela rippon, that would be quite a show. maybe we will get back to something quite consumer base. car technology is changing all the time. there is an increasing use of electric cars. bbc had a show about motoring called gassed up, which try to have those fun elements with celebrities. it didn't cut through the same way that top gear did. it certainly top gear remains an option. but itjust has to work out now how it can go forward. and it won't be for a little while yet. do you there is a chance we might see it return as an actual car show? i mean, imagine that, reviews? the latest family hatchback! things that people might actually be able to afford. it certainly can happen. stranger things and all that. but it feels like people pass attitudes would have to significantly shift because of the architecture of the programme. —— people's attitudes. it has featured quite risky stuff and entertaining. but risky. perhaps it feels like that kind of riskiness is not viable any more. sometimes might think about the concussion rules in sport, is it as safe as we thought? toby, good to chat. thank you for joining us. let's go to carol, who has been talking this morning about how it is going to get colder. good morning. going to get colder. good morninu. ., ., ., good

cold. but as we head towards friday, and particularly on saturday, much colder. today we have got quite a bit of clout. it is going to be breezy as well. some rain in the forecast but mild. you can see that quite nicely on the emmas chart for today. the yellow and amber. thursday night into friday we pull in this arctic air. returns much colder. same on saturday. it looks like on a sunday we might see a return to the atlantic air. today we have got high pressure in the south. a week by the fund clearing from east anglia. and another with a front across the north of scotland. we have the dregs of this weather front to clear away. it will eventually push away a north norfolk into the north sea. we hung on to the rain in western and northern scotland, where it is going to be windy. for northern ireland, the rest of england and wales, quite a bit of cloud at times but we will see some brighter breaks. you may well still see some drizzle on the hills. temperature wise today we are looking at ten in lerwick, to 14 in aberdeen and belfast. in about 13 in cardiff. mild for the time of the year, especially in the north. tonight the weather front moves north and sinks south. i have it we are looking at once again a lot of cloud with some drizzle on the hills. —— ahead of it. where we have is that it will not be a cold night. we started to see the colder air coming in across the far north of scotland. that is behind this weather front which will continue to sink south during the day. the colder air follows behind sink south during the day. the colder airfollows behind it. we are still in the milder conditions ahead of it. the rain moves through scotland into northern england and northern ireland. then we have got wintry showers over the hills of scotland. but again in the northern isles some of it will fall as snow. gail is at lower levels. for the west of england and wales we are looking at it day of a fair bit of cloud. the cloud breaking up. still quite a breezy day. and here, we still are in the mild conditions. we have got a 13s 14s. the still are in the mild conditions. we have got a 13s14s. the cooler still are in the mild conditions. we have got a 13s 14s. the cooler air sinking further south across parts of scotland. it is as we head on through thursday night into friday, we're all going to get a blast from the arctic. it will feel colder, it will be windy, wintry showers in the north of scotland and down the east coast. not all of us will see them because they are showers. you could see some on the hills in northern ireland and wales. a lot of dry weather as well. these are the temperatures. if ijust show weather as well. these are the temperatures. if i just show you these, five to seven in the east. add on the wind chill and this is how it will feel. sub zero orjust above. still quite mild in carol, andy has messaged us. he says, what is the weather like in the maldives for next week, carol? don't tell him!— don't tell him! andy,
