four british friends smash the world record for crossing the atlantic in a rowing boat. in sport, heading to scotland, northern ireland boss michael o'neill is a step closer to taking over as scotland manager, now that the scottish fa have agreed a deal to compensate his current employers. and sarah has the weather. good morning. it is another cloudy day today and things are going to turn increasingly wet and windy from the west. i'll bring you all the details in about 15 minutes. good morning. first, our main story: there were nearly 43,000 hospital operations to remove teeth in children and teenagers in england last year, equating to 170 a day. the british dental association says england provides a second—class service compared to scotland and wales, and has accused government ministers of adopting a short—sighted approach to a growing crisis around tooth decay. 0ur health correspondent dominic hughes reports. tooth decay in children is distressing, painful and avoidable. dentists say sugary snacks and drinks are the biggest cause. each children drink more soft drinks than anywhere else in europe and the number of multiple extractions, which have to take place in hospital under a general anaesthetic, is continuing to grow. figures compiled by the local government association showed there were nearly 43,000 multiple to the extractions among under—18s in england last year. that's around 170 every day of the working week. 0verall, there's been an increase of 17% injust working week. 0verall, there's been an increase of 17% in just four yea rs. an increase of 17% in just four years. dentists say children in england are suffering and are being offered a second—rate service when compared to scotland and wales. we have seen in scotland and in wales that they have got national programmes to try and prevent this and they will actually —— they have actually got reasonably good results out of it. the government has not put any money into the national prevention programme for england and that's the reason why we are seeing so that's the reason why we are seeing so many children being put under general anaesthetic. the department of health in england says the introduction of attacks on sugary drinks is part of its plan to reduce the number of extractions and that more than half of all children have seen more than half of all children have seen a more than half of all children have seen a dentist in the last year. and, with proper oral hygiene, good brushing and avoiding high sugar snacks and drinks, thousands of children could be saved from experiencing the pain of a rotten tooth. the african union has demanded an apology from president trump after he reportedly used a vulgar and disparaging term to describe nations on the continent. it was apparently made during an oval office meeting on immigration with members of congress. the union, which represents 55 african countries, expressed its "shock, dismay and outrage" and said the trump administration misunderstood africans. 0ur north america correspondent peter bowes reports. it has been an extraordinary week, even by donald trump's standards. it ended with a medical, a routine checkup that all presidents undergo and word from mr trump's doctor is that the commander in chief is in excellent health. for the past two days have seen the president of my head in controversy —— the past two. as donald trump arrives in florida to spend the weekend at his golf resort, the international community is still feeding over his alleged use of crude language to describe african countries. as the african union we were quite appalled and infuriated, outraged, by the comments. and for a country like the united states, which is a valued partner for the africans, this united states, which is a valued partnerfor the africans, this is quite a shock. from the united nations in geneva came the stiffest of rebukes. these are shocking and shameful comments from the president of the united states. i'm sorry but there's no other word one can use but racist. you can't dismiss entire countries and continents. the allegation has gone unanswered by the president. he had an opportunity at the ceremony in celebration of martin luther king. but it was awkward. after signing a proclamation in the civil rights leader, the trump dodged the most uncomfortable of questions. mr president, are you a racist? the president, are you a racist? the president left without responding. he earlier tweeted that he used tough language in a meeting with senators but not the derogatory language attributed to him. consumers can no longer be charged extra for paying by credit or debit card under new laws from today. it is hoped the ban will benefit shoppers and holidaymakers who buy goods online or in small stores, but some retailers have already said they will raise overall prices in response to the change. joe lynam reports. we've all seen them. the extra little fees added at the very end of the buying process. in percentage terms it may not sound like a lot, but card surcharges add up, until today. under a new eu directive retailers on or off—line can no longer charge customers for paying with a credit or debit card. the treasury says this surcharges cost uk consumers £166 million annually are but some companies, such as concert venues, can still charge a booking or service fee. this is a significant win for consumers. no longer will they be penalised just for paying by credit or debit card. not all companies will increase prices. we have to wait and see how they react to the law that introduced and see whether or not prices go up. if prices do go up consumers can shop around and find the best deals for them. some retailers, such as this delivery firm just eat, say they will impose new costs on customers who pay by card. 0thers massively raise prices. so not all consumers will be better. —— others may simply. nottingham train station will re—open this morning, after it was forced to close yesterday following a major fire. the blaze began at 6:30 yesterday morning. at its peak, ten fire crews were tackling flames coming from the station's roof and smoke filling the foyer. the fire is now being treated as arson. at the moment our current investigation is trying to examine exactly what happened and why it happened. at the moment it is expected as on. we have a number of lines of enquiry that we can't go into this moment in time because our investigators are still working on that. that will include witness details and cctv viewing at the station. a contract has denied reports that it had a rescue plan rejected by creditors. the firm is struggling under1.5 creditors. the firm is struggling under 1.5 william pounds of debt, including pensions shortfall of half £1 million, raising questions about its future. we understand ministers are raising questions about the prison contracts. the hollywood actor steven seagal is being investigated for sexual assault. police in los angeles confirmed they were investigating an allegation against the actor that dates back to 2005. he has denied a number of accusations that have been made since the harvey weinstein scandal. tributes have been paid to the comedy actress bella emberg, who has died aged 80. she became a household name in the 19805 on the russ abbot show, playing characters including blunder woman, the sidekick of hapless superhero cooperman. abbot called her "a huge comedy talent", while les dennis said she was a "funny, lovely friend". four british friends have broken the world record and become the fastest ever to cross the atlantic ocean in a rowing boat. the crew, dubbed the four 0arsmen, made history overnight when they reached the island of antigua in 29 days, beating the previous record by six days. dan johnson has more. that's it, lads, you've done it! the end of the net the journey done in record time. the four 0arsmen hadn't even been on a rolling boat 18 months ago. here they go! now they've not only won this year is athletic challenge, they are world record holders. the first to make the crossing in under 30 days. they left the canary islands one month ago, facing 3000 miles of blood and blisters, sweat and tears. producing their own freshwater on—board, surviving on rations and taking it in turns to eat, sleep and a row, their motivation was personal. it's amazing to compete and we set out as amazing to compete and we set out as a kind of charitable initiative in the first instance for two charities, for mind, the mental health charity, and spinal research. for me the mind element is commemorative. my mum had in a mental illness all alive and i a lwa ys mental illness all alive and i always felt a need and desire... i have this initiative and desire to do something to commemorate mum and to bring it to fruition and complete it and to bring it to fruition and complete itand do to bring it to fruition and complete it and do it such justice and do to bring it to fruition and complete it and do it suchjustice and do it in such style and with great support and success is amazing. just making it to the caribbean is a fantastic achievement, they've raised more than £250,000 and wrote their way into the record books. —— rowed their way. we will be talking to them a little bit later on, after what looks like quite a big celebration. did you know that two of them were seasick? fascinating. let's take a look at this morning's front pages. the times, you can see the headline. trump took offence at flights from the british. that's where he was invited to london to open the new embassy but they say a white house source has told them that decision came after the president was left smarting over some rows, including that rebuke from the prime minister. and of course the official reason is that he thought the spending of the money was. . . that he thought the spending of the money was... the money was badly spent, but they have their own sources. the front page of the telegraph talks about the flu jab and the number of people with flu. they now say chemists are running low on the flu vaccine yesterday, amid fears of an epidemic if the virus continues to spread at its current rate. and the today programme presenter is facing criticism over a conversation about pay with a fellowjournalist, who is a north american editor. that's also on the front page the sun. it says ‘dump humph‘. the bbc is suggested to dump him after talking about the gender pay gap. racist and shameful remarks from trump. that's on the guardian. shortly we will speak to a us commentatorjust on how those remarks are going down and what the white invocations are, of some of the things he did or didn't say. of course it depends on whose account you believe. you are mentioning the story about donald trump being sensitive about some comments and now apparently he faces the embarrassment of not being invited to the royal wedding. people are mindful of this because he takes these snubs quite personally. royal household source has said now that although the guest list hasn't been announced there's no reason he be invited. those are the main stories this morning. a full review coming up later. we've been talking a lot this week about the continuing spread of flu. this morning we want to look at how you can try to avoid getting it yourself. breakfast'sjohn maguire has been out and about with a gp to get some tips. good morning. after a slow start, flu season is well and truly here, at how best should we protect ourselves and how should we try to prevent the virus spreading? good morning to agp. should we even be shaking hands? it's fine. we are both well, we want the social niceties. yes, no problem. but if you are feeling unwell, if you have the sniffles or a high temperatures, then back off and try not to pass things on and make sure that you look after each other. what sort of distances are we talking about?” think it being sensible. i always hate people invading my space at the best of times, so it's always nice to have a bit of space, but if you are snotty, if you have a cold or cough, you want to give a bit more distance and make sure you use a tissue, been the tissue, wash your hands, make sure you don't give the opportunities when you are not so well to pass things on. public transport? invite that? hard surfaces? what are the issues? —— things like that. some bugs will end up things like that. some bugs will end up on services. most of flu and viruses are spread by droplets, at a little bit will come on services as well. washing hands when you can. be sensible at work and make sure your employer does clean things appropriately. more tea, doctor? when you've got a high—temperature, you've got to push the fluids. sweat it all out. what about at home? what should we be looking out for? i think one of the key things is that in your home you can be yourself, but in the home everybody is in close proximity to each other, so again the coughing and sneezing over each other. if you feel lousy, is it best to go to a separate bedroom? sometimes you might be more co mforta ble sometimes you might be more comfortable sneezing on the settee. the more people can be sensible and look after each other, the more we can produce cold is passing between people. just before 9am we'll speak to a gp about how to spot flu symptoms. we will try to pick up on some of your thoughts. let us know if there are any particular questions you would like to ask. i wonder if it is that whether where it makes you feel like you will catch a cold? it seems to be turning. good morning. some slightly uninspiring weather. murky and cloudy recently with no great changes. rain arriving across western parts of the country. with a pc with a grain has been moving quite slowly over the past few hours of western areas, western scotland, northern ireland, down to the south—west of england. further east, most right. the big area of high pressure. bumping into that area of high pressure. making pretty slope progress a cross high pressure. making pretty slope progress across western parts of the country. across northern ireland from the east of the country feel a dry weather. there will be a few holes breaking through the cloud. top temperatures today around about 5- top temperatures today around about 5— eight degrees. as we head into this evening and tonight, this area of rain tends to fizzle out. becoming mostly dry, still pretty murky and cloudy across the country. the wind that lighter. some mist and fog patches. temperatures down are not on what we had last night. about three degrees or so at the lowest and in towns and cities colder in the countryside. and, a lot of cloud. a pretty grey day. some glimpses of sunshine. later, we see a change from the far north—west. you will notice the wind arrows. the rain moving in across north—west scotla nd rain moving in across north—west scotland and northern ireland. a lot of dry weather elsewhere across the country. iran about 5— seven degrees but the mild editors with us gets swept away as we head into next week. into monday and tuesday in particular cold arrest us to draw in across the country so after a mild cloudy sort of weekend, this is hannath is shaping up. we have got that moving in. it's going to turn quite unsettled. we could see some snowfall. further south, quite unsettled. we could see some snowfall. furthersouth, mostly over the hills is the hint of something more wintry on the cards. but here are now, pretty mild and cloudy. see you later. now it's time to film review. hello and welcome to the film review on bbc news. to take us through this week's cinema releases, mark kermode is back. what have you been watching? as you'll know, awards season is upon us. we have darkest hour, for which gary 0ldman is hotly tipped for 0scars. we have the brawler, mukkabaaz, a boxing—movie—cum—political—romance. and three billboards 0utside ebbing, missouri, from martin mcdonagh. darkest hour. you wait years for a churchill film to come along and we've had two quite recently, really. so we reviewed churchill with brian cox here on the show a few months ago. the story then was that brian cox was playing brilliantly, i think, churchill anxiety—ridden in the run up to d—day. now we have gary 0ldman as churchill, anxiety—ridden around the time of dunkirk. it's 1940. the nazis are sweeping across europe. the resistance is crumbling everywhere. he's basically being advised by all sides to appease rather than fight. here's a clip. nothing even remotely patriotic in death or glory if the odds are firmly on the former. nothing inglorious in trying to shorten a war that we are clearly losing. losing! europe is still... europe is lost. and before our forces are wiped out completely, now is the time to negotiate. in order to obtain the best conditions possible. hitler will not insist on outrageous terms. he will know his own weaknesses. he will be reasonable. when will the lesson be learned? how many more dictators must be... wooed, appeased. good god, given immense privileges. before we learn! you cannot reason with a tiger when your head is in its mouth! that is pretty much the give—me—an—award clip. there's no surprise it's got such awards buzz about it. and he won a golden globe, didn't he? yeah. i think i remember in 2012, when it looked like he was going to win the oscar, then he was beaten to the punch byjean dujardin, i think it was. i think this time may well be his year. and it is a terrific performance. despite being buried under a lot of facial prosthetics, you know, you can see his personality coming through. it's a very interesting take on churchill. i think the performance has conviction and grit. much as i really, really like the brian cox film, i think this is a really solid, awards—courting and probably awards—worthy performance. my problem is the film itself, which is not as good as his performance. 0n the one hand, it's tojoe wright's credit that he's trying to inject a sense of immediacy and urgency into a film which could become a bunch of people arguing in rooms, essentially. and he does that well. but he also mixes up, on the one hand some very well created, you know, historical recreations, with some utterly fanciful dramatic license. such as a scene in which churchill suddenly decides to take a quick referenda of the way the british public feel by going on the tube train and asking people what they think about what's going on. in a scene which, whatever the emotional truth of it may be, just struck me as utterly preposterous. i think the central performance is very good. and it's a crack cast. it is. kristin scott thomas. it's a very good cast and clearly a crowd pleaser. it's going down incredibly well with the american critics. i have no doubt that it will play very well. i have to say, from my point of view, there were moments in it that i thought it was cringy. where it was much too on—the—nose. i felt like it was explaining everything. you know, obviously, this is complicated subject matter, but there are certain moments in which characters don't have to be introduced by their name, their title and rank whilst they're actually in the room with you. but the thing that will carry it is the performance. and it is a really good performance. i think it will continue to be rewarded with awards. the brawler, mukkabaaz. which is this boisterous, politically—tinged—boxing—movie—cum— romance. from the director of the gangs of wasseypur. which i think we spoke about on this show here. young boxer struggling to find his place in the world, finds himself at odds with the local big boss. he falls in love with a young woman who has no voice but whose actions speak volumes. it's a strange and occasionally ramshackle affair. the dialogue is full of cussing. and colloquial cussing at that. there is music in it but it is very racy in its lyrical content. the fight sequences, you really feel that you're watching people beating seven bells out of each other. it has the ability to eschew conventions and mix in grit i think it's a bit overlong. two and a half hours. but what i liked about it, firstly, it is a bit anarchic. a bit ramshackle. it seems to switch genres at certain times. it always keeps you on your toes. i mean, a boxing movie should do. it is a film which dances around you and keeps you alert. it's not perfect, but it's a pretty solid thriller with some sort of social things to say, as well. good to bring us something that i certainly didn't know too much about. ifeel like i've read a lot about three billboards. i'm a huge frances mcdormond fan. me, too. so talented. and a big martin mcdonagh fan. so this is the latest from martin mcdonagh who of course made in bruges. frances mcdormand probably still most famous for fargo. an extraordinary cv. so, like darkest hour, this is shaping up to be a major 0scar contender. it's a western—inflected tragi—comedy. frances mcdormand is a grieving mother. her daughter was abducted and killed. and the local police force, headed up by woody harrelson as the chief, hasn't made any arrests. in a state of desperation, she decides to take those titular three billboards and emblazen them with signs that name and shame the police department and say, "how come there have been no arrests?". here's a clip. when the dna don't match no one who's ever been arrested. and when the dna don't match any other crime nationwide. and when there wasn't a single eyewitness from the time she left your house to the time we found her... well, right now, there ain't too much more we can do. could pull blood from every man and boy in this town, over the age of eight. there's several rights laws prevents that, mrs hayes. and what if he was just passing through town. pull blood from every man in the country, then. and what if he wasjust passing through the country? if it was me, i'd start up a database. every male baby what's born, stick him on it. and as soon as he'd done something wrong, cross— reference it, make 100% certain it was a correct match, then kill him. yeah, well, there's definitely civil rights laws prevents that. you can see from that clip that what the film does is it plays with your sympathies. 0n the one hand frances mcdormand is set up as the heroine. but then what she's saying there is outrageous. and suddenly, the chief is the one who's reasonable. i think the real triumph of this film is, it's a tragi—comedy that is very funny. that's one of the few clips that we could play that doesn't have chaucerian swearing in it. martin mcdonagh has a real ear for this stuff. and it is very funny. he can make you laugh and gasp. he does. before, he had a cynical edge. but this actually has heart. because the tragedy is, if anything, more powerful than the comedy. so what you get is a story about people who are eaten up by rage, eaten up by anger, eaten up by desperation. it's really a film about how those things impact upon the characters. there are these lines that are delivered as trite little greeting card messages. "anger only begets greater anger". "through love comes calm". and yet they seem to be sincere. what really surprised me is how tender this film is. yes, it's very funny. yes, it's very violent. yes, it's very dark. yes, it deals with edgy subject matter. but it also has a really tender heart. it has upset some people because all the characters are seen to be three dimensional. like sam rockwell is introduced as a racist cop. but as it goes on, you start to see he's also a victim of his circumstances. that doesn't play very well with everybody. because it is a film about moral ambivalence in which there isn't a good character or a bad character. everybody is in this kind of morass. but i thought it worked really well. i've seen it twice. second time round it was more powerful. when it needs to be funny, it's blisteringly funny. but it's also really tragic. and, oddly enough, very tender. goodness. rich. very rich film. yeah, i'd be interested to know what you think about it. we can discuss next week. for now, i know best out you're saying is anotherfilm — stunning scenery, beautiful setting, but quite bleak, as well. yes, hostiles, which is an end of an era western from scott cooper. christian bale is a battle hardened captain ordered to take his nemesis back to his sacred lands to die. it is a film, therefore, about coming to terms with the legacy of violence. actually, the reason i've chosen it is because it has a brilliant score by max richter, which is really evocative. the score seems to come out of the landscape. it uses this incredible instrument called a yaybahar which i'd never heard of before until i heard this film. it really captured me. i think it's not getting perhaps the attention that it should have got. i think it's a very interesting piece of work. it's called hostiles. it's worth it for the score alone. and dvd, you've picked one of my films of last year detroit. superb. why isn't that on the awards radars? i don't begin to understand. it's so well made. really, really brilliant. the anatomy of an uprising. set in the late 19605 but i think relevant to today. fantastic ensemble cast. john boyega, will poulter, both absolutely brilliant. i would have had both of them in supporting actor nominations. fantastically directed by kathryn bigelow. yet somehow it seems to have slipped off the radar, which is a shame. i thought it was a really gripping piece of work. absolutely. a hard watch, but it is brilliant. but it has to be tough because of the subject matter. it would be wrong if it wasn't. absolutely. this is the chance to see it, if you didn't see it in the cinema. it's on dvd this week. mark, thank you very much. see you next week for more. there is, of course, more film news and reviews from across the bbc on the website. you know the address, bbc.co.uk/mark kermode. you can find our previous programmes on the bbci player. hello, this is breakfast with naga munchetty and charlie stayt. good morning. here's a summary of today's main stories

godmother to have. i never thought about being godparents to an animal. what do you do? take him for days out? to the zoo? he's already there! that's a nice touch! it's a bear that's been born and got older. he is in demand, michael 0'neill, after what he's done with the european championship. he's 48 and has been scottish football's, preferred candidate since gordon strachan's departure in october. they've been negotiating with 0'neill‘s representatives for some time. now that a compensation package has been agreed with the irish fa, face to face talks are now likely next week. under

periods. the faw is thought to be keen on appointing a welshman and is hoping to announce their new manager next week. the bbc understands giggs‘s former team—mate phil neville is a contender to take

he or won't he move to premier league leaders manchester city? the chilean forward has been told he can leave, if arsenalfind a suitable replacement. but city only want to pay £20 million rather than the £35 million arsenal want and manchester united are ready to step in with a bid of £25 million. there are some players in the football world, if you have a chance to sign them you have to try. and that's it. the only word i can say is the same word that everybody says, he's a phenomenal. apart from that, an arsenal player and i feel i shouldn't say much more than this. and sanchez might not be the only arsenal forward leaving the emirates. theo walcott has been at arsenal for 12 years since moving from southampton as a teenager, but he's only played 47 minutes in the league this season. and sam allardyce has confirmed everton are negotiating over the england international, who he says would be a "fantastic addition". well arsenal are at bournemouth and city travel to liverpool on sunday, with manchester united in action on monday evening. there are seven games later today though. chelsea are at home to leicester and they could go second for a day at least, with victory. but they'd still be some 13 points adrift of leaders manchester city and their manager antonio conte is still casting doubt over how long he'll stay at the club. i still have another year of the contract with this club. but as you very well in football everything is possible. 0ne very well in football everything is possible. one moment you stay here, in another moment you stay in another place or another person replaces you and yourjob. last night's steel city derby between sheffield united and sheffield wednesday ended in a goalless draw. wednesday's new manager had to do without several injured players and defender glenn loovens was sent off after 64 minutes for a second bookable offence. but wednesday held on and could have won it in injury time, were it not for united's keeper simon moore, pulling off some excellent saves including this one from adam reach. the draw moves united into the championship play off places, while wednesday are struggling down in 15th. it's the penultimate round of group stage fixtures in rugby union's champions cup and scarlets have gone top of pool 5, with a famous 35—17 win over bath at the rec. it means bath could slip out of the top two on a weekend which marks the anniversary of their first european cup triumph in france. joe lynskey reports. bordeaux 20 years ago. today bath became european champions. they were the first english team to win the top club prize, but these were continental rugby's early days. the spotlight has intensified on the champions cup since, but still a tea m champions cup since, but still a team from wales is yet to win it, so scarlet is feel if their year to make history. they play rugby in there own style. it was a shimmy from their scrummage that put in front. tyburn with a move they never expected. such improvisation has made scarlet such a force. they came across the seven to make a statement and by half—time the gap between the sides was already tough the bridge. when hadlee park run on a third try, it was becoming a welsh procession. it was the bonus points that mattered. that's why a fourth scarlet strike from scott williams felt so crucial. that means they go into the final group game with qualification in their own hands. for bath, the bordeaux aeneid is are a distant memory. this is and evening to be scarlet. captain eoin morgan says the specialist one day players will lift the rest of the england side as they go up against australia again. after losing the ashes 4—0, england have the chance for some revenge in the shorter format, the first of 5—1 day internationals takes place in melbourne tomorrow. understandably they've been i suppose down with defeat of the tests to, which is disappointing, but a lot of the guys have brought in energy, coming from the big bash, or playing bangladesh previously, i think it's important for the series and it always has been, giving you play on the back of such a significant test match series. the quys significant test match series. the guys know the responsibility that they carry. if they are feeling fresh it will pick guys up along the way. history has been made in saudi arabia after women were allowed to watch a football match in the stadium for the first time yesterday. around 300 women flocked to the pearl stadium injeddah to watch al—ahli take on al—batin in the saudi premier league. they had to enter via a special gate and sit in seats reserved for familes, separated by a glass partition. the game was the first in a series of matches open to female spectators and is part of long—awaited reforms of women's rights in the country. i hope they enjoyed the match. that would have felt like a really important day. we heard from some of them yesterday in the papers. they couldn't describe how long they had waited for this moment. incredible. donald trump has continued to dominate global headlines this week. 0vernight doctors said the president is in excellent health after his annual presidential medical. however, the toxic fallout from remarks he reportedly made in the 0val remarks he reportedly made in the oval office continue. he is accused of using derogatory language about haiti, el salvador and other countries. he has denied using the language reported. a political analyst joins us now using the language reported. a political analystjoins us now from washington. good to talk to you again. so, help us with some of the basic stuff. in the oval office, on that date, what happened? there was a meeting taking place with the president and seven members of the us senate. there was one democrat on the brew and six other republicans as well —— democrat in the room. this was a discussion about how to address the issue of immigration. as you know there's a large issue on what to do with a large issue on what to do with a large issue on what to do with a large issue on what to do with 8000 immigrants, 800,000 immigrants in this country. there was a bipartisan legislative effort led by a retiring senator from arizona, who had developed a deal on this issue and so these senators were meeting with the president, specifically addressing theissue president, specifically addressing the issue of immigrants from countries such as haiti, and african countries such as haiti, and african countries where they are confronted with natural disasters that may force them to flee the country, for example in the country of haiti, there was a massive earthquake that there was a massive earthquake that the place eight years ago and we are celebrating their eight year anniversary this weekend. so this earthquake took the lives of more than 200,000 people and so as a result of the devastation, many of those haitians fled to the united states. can ijust. .. the scene those haitians fled to the united states. can ijust... the scene is set. we know what the meeting is about. then the claim is from a number of people that certain language was used. i'm not going to use the language now for obvious reasons, but a flat denial from the president? right. the president has said he used tough language in the meeting, however he said he didn't use the language that has been reported. however, we know that one of the senators has emphatically stated that president did use the language, as well as senator lindsey graham. and you may know that senator lindsey graham was a candidate for president in 2016 as well and now has been working very closely with president trump. but he did say the claims were made. two are the senators in the room said they do not recall whether the president used this language, but based on the comments that were made by both senator lindsey graham and of course senator tim scott, also a republican, said he spoke directly with senator lindsey graham and senator lindsey graham told him that the president did use those words. number of african countries are now asking for an apology, but for mr trump to make an apology there would have to be an admission. that's correct. not only are we seeing the fallout across african nations, but we also know that the us ambassador to panama today are actually yesterday resigned from his post is, stating that he simply could not work under this president any more. so the fallout has been swift and it has been brutal. but also what is important to note is that this deal was struck on immigration and now as a result of these comments it's been blown up. here's what's important about that. the government, the us government, is actually going to run out of money by next friday and so it was an incumbent that this deal get done in order to pave the way to strike a deal on funding the government, beyond january 19th. so if this deal is not done we could see the united states government heading to a government shutdown as a result of this deal not been done. 0ne a result of this deal not been done. one last thought. donald trump has been accused of being racist before. many people are saying that again now. where do you sit on that? the president has a long history of making racially insensitive content. people have called him the grand wizard of the birther movement. that was his first for a into the political arena, claiming the first african—american president of the united states was not born in this country. he has made racially charged comments making mexicans. we know about the travel ban to exclude muslims. it is a long, dark history with this president. now we are seeing the ramifications of it beyond this country. good to talk to you. thank you for your time. it has been chilly this week. lots of fog. i think we will see sleet in coming days. sarah is about to tell us about it. cloudy seemed to the past couple of days. lots more about cloud on the scene. it's going to be dry to much of the country. there will be rain working in. if we take a look at a recent radar picture, we can see where that rain has been working in. its slow—moving. many western areas will see breaks throughout the day but further east, higher pressure which is holding on. certainly quite mild out there. that is going to bring wainer crossed western wales and northern ireland. also wet and windy. . —— bring rain. —— across. a few breaks in the cloud as we move on to the afternoon. the odd spot of drizzle. something coulter on the cards as we head into macs —— next week. it's looking pretty cloudy for the football. temperatures in newcastle, about five degrees. this rain doesn't move east across the country. still quite damp up into the west. there could bea damp up into the west. there could be a few mist and fog patches forming tonight. it could be a touch of frost on sunday. a lot of bad mist clears away relatively quickly. many of us drive from the north—west, we start to see some heavy rain working into the north—west of scotland and northern ireland. some brighter spells breaking through. top temperatures around 5— eight degrees. 0ut front in the north—west moves the south—east. a spell of rain and cold conditions. the blue colour is returning. who next week, that is when things will be noticeably colder. quite unsettled and windy. a bit of sleet and hill snow. further south, the mix of rain. for the here and now, nice going with some rain in cloud in the west. we'll be back with the headlines at 7:00. but first it's time for click with spencer kelly, see you soon. the i've had enough. enough of old tech. it's all going obsolete, or so it seems. even the days of desktop computers are numbered. right. let's see what they've got for us this year. the consumer electronics show in las vegas is the place to find out. it's where the new products and concepts are launched for 2018 and some of them might just change the world. one of the highlights of ces for me is always finding out how bendy lg is. previously, they have been slightly bendy and then quite bendy. this year, i think they have nailed it. it's a 65—inch rollup display and the image quality is really very good. and it does roll completely up into an admittedly fairly chunky box. it's an 0led display, the only display tech that can be fully flexible. the circuitry is built on a segmented back so it is a bit like a retractable garage door. you can actually choose how far the screen rolls out as well as a widescreen tv, it can be used as a thin notification bar, a widerformat 21x9 cinema screen and of course nothing at all. the argument is that you can make use of the space behind it when you're not using it. and in south korea, a lot of people live in high—rise blocks. can you imagine lugging a 65" tv up the stairs or into a lift? much easier if you can roll it down into a handy tube. elsewhere, plenty of other things to see and play with here at ces. here is a telephone from chinese company vivo that does not have a fingerprint scanner on the back, because it has one built into the screen. the 0led display shines light on to your thumb and an optical scanner buried underneath registers what it sees. here is the link flow fit 360. a necklace with three cameras that together live—stitch to make a 360 video. you can record a true first person view so others can feel like they were truly there too. now, it's important to catch the eye at shows like these which is hopefully what this thing is doing. this is the hypervision display by kino—mo and is capable of projecting life—size images high above the show floor. all right, sexy, that's enough from you. here is the science bit. we have 24 rapidly spinning led strips. they are flashing different colours as they go around. it gives you the illusion of a persistent image. in the flesh, i have to say, it does really look rather good. don't build up your part. oh, good grief. enough flimsy flimflam from me. let's get lara lewington now with some of the big announcements from this year's show. and what a week it has been with news from tech‘s biggest players. including the likes of intel saying it will release software fixes to repair security issues surrounding its chips. we've had press events that have gone wrong with disobedient robots from lg. chloe is not going to talk to me, she doesn't like me evidently. and sony's robot dog wasn't that responsive either. aibo is an autonomous robot and will quickly become a member of yourfamily. right? he ignored me. meanwhile, a lack of female keynote speakers has caused controversy amongst attendees. a situation which has led to raised eyebrows, compounded by the inclusion of robotic pole dancers at a strip club near the event. and on the show floor, as usual, tvs were everywhere but this one really stood out. samsung wall is 146 inches wide and can be made even larger by adding modules. and finally, toyota has unveiled its new autonomous e—pallete vehicle, to be used for ridesharing, deliveries or even a moving storefront which comes directly to you. that was lara. now one of the big things at the moment in wireless charging. that normally means putting your phone on a pad but it is also is possible to send power through the air. one of the problems with wireless power is that that power is sent in every direction at the same time so wherever your device is, it only receives a tiny fraction of that power. well, here is a system that gets around that by sending focused beams of power to one particular point. the power transmitter can be built into ceiling tiles, walls, tables or parts of the furniture. all it needs to know is which direction to point the power in. here is the science bit. to work that out, the device needing the power sends out low—power signals in all directions, most of which are blocked by nearby objects. but the signals that do bounce around come and reach the transmitter come in at particular angles. by sending the power back at exactly the same angles, that power bounces about and eventually gets back to the device. the makers told us they can achieve 2 watts of power from a distance of one metre which is impressively about half the power of the smartphone charger. i'm using this light to detect the power beams between the transmitter and the blackbox transceiver. think about your home where you have smoke detectors. it starts beeping at night when it runs out of battery. you can charge it remotely, you never have to charge the battery again. but with high power beams lancing around your home, you have to wonder if it is safe. this technology is entirely safe. we look to get fcc approval for safety, that certifies the technology as safe. if you have accepted wi—fi into your home, accepting this technology would be the same. in the future, the power receivers could be made into any shape including that of a aa battery and that means ordinary devices could be converted to wireless power without any modification at all. for a long time, bricks and mortar shops have been trying to keep up with online retailers who have the added benefits of keeping track with customer habits as well as providing very easy ways of paying. here is one way that we could see some of those features brought into the real world, by retrofitting existing stores. aipoly uses off—the—shelf cameras, one up here to track customers and one to take a look at the products and the customers interactions with them but the real work is happening here in the ai algorithms were it is recognising all the products off—the—shelf and their customers interactions with them. but the ai is using the main camera here to keep track of customers. it can recognise faces, identify clothes and follow their movements. through the combination of the customers being recognised, and the products they pick up being identified, when they get to the checkout, they don't even need to scan the items. theyjust need to pay. and if they agree to be remembered for next time, then all they need to do is go and pick up their products and take them away. i'm having my nails done. this is the 02 nails printer. choose any image and they will print it onto your nail. of course i chose a picture of myself. 0k, richard taylor and nick kwek, beat that! refreshing! this device is actually creating a vacuum in my mouth. it's sucking at my gums and at the same time circulating a flow of water around my teeth. it's intended for users with reduced mobility or people who have difficulty brushing their teeth. it replaces the need to brush and floss too. the guys are working on integrating sensors into future devices so that oral hygienists or dentists will be able to diagnose and treat for gum disease. and it's quite tickly too. ces can really take it out of you and i for one am already pretty sleep deprived. so what i have in front of me here is a device that's packed with all sorts of technology and the claim is it will provide within 20 minutes the equivalent of 2—5 hours sleep. there will be some electrodes that are put behind my ears here, effectively through this device, that are transmitting signals up to my brain. so i'm going to try this on and i'll see you in 20 minutes. i'll tell you what, richard's got the right idea. walking around here, i'm absolutely exhausted. i'm definitely feeling more relaxed than i was, like, 26 minutes ago. of course i don't know how relaxed i would have felt with just a 26 minute power nap, but i'm ready to rock ‘n' roll! ah, vegas. home to world—class talent, and singing superstars. and then there's richard taylor and me. this karaoke box uses professional autotune on your voice, which, frankly, makes you sound a bit like cher on a bad night. # sweet home alabama...#. next stop, caesars. # lord i'm coming home to you...#. that is it for the shortcut click this week. more in the full—length version which is up on iplayer for you to watch right now. we will be back in the us, specifically vegas, next week. don't forget to check us out on twitter for backstage videos. hello, this is breakfast, with naga munchetty and charlie stayt. dentists warn of a tooth decay crisis amongst children in england. a record 43,000 operations to remove rotting teeth were carried outlast year. ministers say they're determined to tackle the problem. good morning, it's saturday the 13th of january. also this morning:
