Transcripts For BBCNEWS Breakfast 20200704

Claire and the team inside are very excited howzat excited recreational cricket can return in a weeks time. After a government u turn, the game is given the go ahead. They now say it can be made very safe. Its saturday, july the 4th. Our top story the largest easing of coronavirus restrictions so far has come into effect in england. Some hairdressers welcomed back customers at midnight, while pubs, restaurants and cinemas are allowed to reopen this morning. The Prime Minister has warned people to act responsibly even though lockdown rules have been eased. Well be live throughout the morning at pubs and a hairdressers. Lets speak now to our Political Correspondent jonathan blake. We. It is. It is interesting, isnt it, jonathan, what is coming through now from the Prime Minister. He is wanting, be responsible, but there have been some tweaks, they have been some changes, havent there . Good morning to you both. Yes, this isa good morning to you both. Yes, this is a big moment and i think a big test for the governments response to coronavirus, because as you say, the Prime Minister stood at the lactone in downing street yesterday evening, at that briefing, flanked by the chief medical officer. Stood at that lectern. He said people should enjoy summer safely and take advantage of the fact that they can now gather in larger groups and go to pubs, bars and restaurants and go to pubs, bars and restaurants and geta and go to pubs, bars and restaurants and get a haircut in england, as you have been explaining. But it doesnt come without a risk, because while cases are falling, the fact that people now have more freedom to do more than they did before today means that there may well be an increase of cases in certain areas, and the Prime Minister went into great detail about what the governments response will be, as it has been in leicester, if there are local outbreaks. That will be a key test of its response, because the government is relying on acting in local areas to get a handle on outbreaks of the virus to keep these relaxation is of the restrictions in place. Relaxations. Overall, the test now is for people to follow guidance rather than rules, because as the Prime Minister said when he announced all these changes in the house couple of weeks ago, ago, the governments response is shifting from legislating and telling people by law what they are and are not allowed to do, to issuing guidance, and hoping that people followed up and hoping that people followed up and trusting people to followed up. I think that is why we have seen a bit of a good cop, bad cop routine this morning from two cabinet ministers in the papers. Health secretary matt hancock writing in the daily mail, saying that people should by all means go out and enjoy themselves, but dont break the law, because they could well end up behind bars. And the chancellor, rishi sunak, on the other hand encouraging people to go out and spend their money, saying they should eat out to help out. A big test for the governments response and a big step, really, the unknown. And we need to be mindful that today, we have been so familiar with the two need to distance guide, and now it is one metre plus. But also, when it comes to the number of people gathering, the number 30 is being touted. Can you explain that . Yes, it is worth dwelling on this, because as i was explaining just now, there are very few rules now, really, governing what people can and cannot do. The guidance from the government is that in england, you should only gather indoors with the one other household. While there is no limit on the number, necessarily, the guidance is to only meet with one other household indoors and groups of up to six people outdoors. But there is a law which says it is illegal to gather in groups of more than 30. So that is an important number to bear than 30. So that is an important numberto bear in than 30. So that is an important number to bear in mind. Jonathan, thank you very much. That was jonathan blake. Our reporter danjohnson is outside a pub in west london. Very early for a visit to the pub, dan, but there is no question but today, saturday, communities, villages, towns, there will be a different look and a different feel, albeit with plenty of caution still in place . Absolutely, yes. Too early for this pub, because although they we re for this pub, because although they were given permission to open from six oclock, most do not have the license to allow that, and i think most, really, dont see the point, having waited this long, having been locked down for so many weeks and so many months, there seems to be an appreciation that most people can wait a little bit longer and perhaps open even later this morning or later today. There will be plenty of people ready to get back in and enjoy a point, people ready to get back in and enjoya point, i people ready to get back in and enjoy a point, i am sure, but there are cautious warnings, urges not to get carried away with this, or restrictions will have to be tightened again. We saw Prince William visiting a pub last night in east anglia, seeing how they were preparing to open the doors again and welcome back customers, but the real test will be how much people have confidence in the new restrictions, weather they are prepared to take what is regarded as a very small risk and actually go out to try to enjoy a point once again. Certainly a out to try to enjoy a point once again. Certainlya big out to try to enjoy a point once again. Certainly a big boost to the industry, which had said without this, we really would see the end of pubs, as the test will be actually how many people do have the confidence to go through the doors and buy a pint. Dan, thank you. So as weve been hearing, some hairdressers in england have been open since midnight. Adam mcclean has been to visit a salon, in lancashire, which welcomed its first customers since march. More than three months and around five centimetres of average hair growth later, some couldnt wait a minute longer. Scissors at the ready, as the clock struck i2, minute longer. Scissors at the ready, as the clock struck 12, it was time for a cut and colour. Ready, as the clock struck 12, it was time for a cut and colourlj think it is one of the first times ive got properly dressed and ready to come out of the house, really. Some shoes on. Because i think i had flops on for 16 weeks, and slippers, so even that was really nice. My hair has grown really well. But it hasjust been hair has grown really well. But it has just been four hair has grown really well. But it hasjust been four months, and, yeah, desperate times to get back. These customers in lancashire were first to book their midnight appointment. While pubs had to wait until this morning to pull their first pint, some hairdressers and barbers in england worked through the night. It feels lovely. It feels really good to be back. We left on such a low. It was awful. We were worried for the health of our staff, we we re worried for the health of our staff, we were worried for the health of ourselves, ourfamilies. We were worried for the health of ourselves, our families. We we were worried for the health of ourselves, ourfamilies. We worried for the business. But we did it. In 14 for the business. But we did it. In 1a weeks later we are back and we are ready. I mean, im not going to lie, i have actually enjoyed being at home, especially with a fantastic weather we have had, but yeah, it is about more than just weather we have had, but yeah, it is about more thanjust doing here for me. It is about the community we are building here. Some of our clients, i know some of our clients have been doing here for 25 years stop many of us doing here for 25 years stop many of us have been doing our best to keep oui us have been doing our best to keep our own us have been doing our best to keep ourown hair in us have been doing our best to keep our own hair in check, but some things im just best left to professionals. Now and social distancing, with fewer customers at any one time. The guidelines that we have received through the governing body, the hairdresser governing body, the hairdresser governing body, and the government, are that we only actually need to wear this face adviser, so i am guessing that is probably what we might do Going Forward , is probably what we might do Going Forward, and now you can see, doing clouds hair here, wearing a mask and a visor, probably aint going to work out, because i am steaming up a bit. But anyway, work out, because i am steaming up a bit. Butanyway, it work out, because i am steaming up a bit. But anyway, it doesnt matter, it is all good fun. Well crack on and well get the job done and well do what we need to do. Many salons are offering longer Opening Hours, with more appointments, to clear the three month backlog. With fresh our cuts no longer a distant memory, after perhaps the strangest friday night out for some. Not everywhere in england is enjoying a sense of freedom today, however, new local lockdown rules come into force in leicester today, after a spike in coronavirus cases. It means businesses in the city wont be reopening, and a ban on social gatherings and overnight stays is included in the new legislation with fines for those flouting the law. Our reporter geeta pendse is in leicester now. Geeta, good to see you. A very quiet, isnt it, there . And it probably will be for most of the day . Absolutely, naga, really quiet and sadly a very different picture here in leicester. As you say, lots of measures have been put into place to ensure that the restrictions, tightened restrictions here are maintained. So Leicestershire Police say they have got more officers on duty than they would atypical new years eve, duty than they would atypical new yea rs eve, and duty than they would atypical new years eve, and as you mentioned, they can issue fines. British transport police say they are also going to have a higher present at leicester train station stop the advice is for people to really only travel in and out of leicester if it is absolutely essential. And the challenge here is that while Leicester City centre and the surrounding areas might fall in the restriction zone, there are plenty of places in leicestershire but joint. So they might be seeing the reopening of pubs and restaurants, but what we found is there are a lot of places that are just outside the restriction zone and have decided not to reopen, because of safety concerns. In places that are a bit further afield, like nottingham, lots of pubs and bars say they are going to be asking for id. So there isa going to be asking for id. So there is a lot going on here, but clearly a lot of frustration as well. Thank you very much, geeta. Several Police Officers have been injured after they attempted to break up an Illegal Party in west london. Videos posted on social media show dozens of metropolitan Police Officers retreating as missiles were thrown at them by partygoers in white city. So far, no arrests have been made. Donald trump has kicked off celebrations for the fourth ofjuly weekend in the United States by holding an event at Mount Rushmore. There was little social distancing among the crowd at the famous monument in south dakota, with few people wearing face masks. The president has faced criticism as a number of states across the country have seen large spikes in new coronavirus infections. Dozens of landmarks across the uk will be lit up in blue this evening, to mark tomorrows 72nd anniversary of the founding of the nhs. People are being encouraged to observe a minutes silence and light a candle in remembrance of those who have died during the pandemic. A nationwide round of applause is set to take place tomorrow evening at 5 00, to thank the Health Service and its key workers. It is 6 11am, and of course we will keep you up to date throughout the morning with all the latest news. We have jane at a hairdressers, we have got dan outside a pub, wejust have jane at a hairdressers, we have got dan outside a pub, we just saw geeta in leicester. Shall we see how the morning papers are looking today . Of course, many will be leading with the easing of the lockdown in england. The daily mail has a warning from the Health Secretary, matt hancock, who says by all means go to the bar, but you could end up behind bars if you break the law. You heard jonathan blake, our political correspondence, speaking earlier about matt hancock and rishi sunak, the chancellor, almost playing good cop, bad cop, about how much encouragement people need to get out in order to get the economy going. The daily mirror has the headline your good health, beside a photo of Prince William toasting the re opening of the hospitality sector in england. The times has an interview with chancellor rishi sunak, who says britain needs to start spending in pubs and restaurants again to prevent a generation of young people being lost to coro navi rus. And if all the changes have left you a little confused about what can and cannot do, and how the nations differ, the bbc news website offers lots of useful explainers. There are significant changes today. One of the ones which, in a way, has not been given that much attention, though we have known about it for some time, is the rule of two metres of social distancing being shortened to one metre. When you ask the politicians, of course, what they say is one metre plus, is what they are recommending. That is a significant change which brings with ita significant change which brings with it a lot of other changes to do with the hospitality sector, particularly hairdressers, and all of these places will have significant changes today. There definitely will be a different feeling to things, although not everyone is entirely on board, you know, some people are thinking, why . Yeah, there is a lot of confusion. How have you felt about the whole two metres thing . The work thing, well, of course, it is interesting. I mean, it is obvious to see, here we have divided the sofa. You have enjoyed that space, taking over my traditional space. And people also realise, no change here, as we see it, as it stands. Yeah. Told you, jane is at a hairdressers, charlie, how have people been dealing with unruly hairdos lately . How . I dont know, how have they . I dont know. Do you not know . Management, it isjust a bit of management. Jane is at a hairdressers in stockport. I dont know what i was getting out there andi know what i was getting out there and i am sure you have no idea either. No ppe there, i see . Good morning from hair by claire in stockport, where everybody is thrilled to be back in the hot but this does make hot seat this morning. Lets say hello to gabrielle. Good morning, gabrielle. And jill, down here. Gabrielle. Good morning, gabrielle. Andjill, down here. Good morning, jill. Good morning claire, who runs the place, and jesse was over there in the corner. Good morning to you. You are making history this morning, ladies, are you not . We are indeed. Very excited. Safety first. We will be with you guys or morning, but let me talk you through the safety message which is so important, as we emerge from lockdown. You will see the partitions. You will see the extractor fans above each station. You will see the stylists all wearing the face shields. Now, they are important and they are regulated by government. They have to be in place because they will protect claire and the stylists from respiratory droplets. They protect her highs and her nose and her mouth. Equally, they will protect clients from claires respiratory droplets getting to them her highs. Facemasks are not compulsory, but you will see through the morning, because chris mason will get this air done later, and i think this salon insists on the facemasks for clients. The aunty joyce across the country. Everyone is taking it seriously, aspect this morning, claire what did you say when i arrived this morning . Im buzzing. Buzzing. You cant wait to get back. Couldnt sleet all night. How many clients have you got in today . 50. 50 in a 14 hour shift. We are going to hand back to the studio iiow. Are going to hand back to the studio now. But do come back. You can cut off all our hair. Brilliant transformations on the way. Thank you very much. Lots of people excited about haircuts. We will see more from jayne later. Heres stav with a look at this mornings weather. How are you . Im very well, how are you both doing . Not bad at all. Saturday morning. We are here. Its been a while. They have been cutting my own hair with my own clippers. They have been doing it on and off for 15 years. People have been wondering. Some of my mums neighbours have asked how i was cutting my head during lockout. You doa cutting my head during lockout. You do a very good job. I cut my own too. Can we have a look all the way around. Can we see a 360 . Thats good. Youve done a good job. You should have had him do yours, charlie. I can see it now. What is the weather looking like . Charlie. I can see it now. What is the weather looking like . M charlie. I can see it now. What is the weather looking like . It is me presenting the weather for this weekend, it is unsettled under unseasonably windy for the time of year, it will feel more like autumn, especially on sunday with the low sweeping through tringale s. We have had quite a lot of rain across northern and Western Areas. A bit more today. This is the low pressure that will sweep in tonight and tomorrow. At the moment we have a lot of cloud around, westerly winds of the atlantic. Very moisture laden aircoming in off of the atlantic. Very moisture laden air coming in off the atlantic. It is feeding in all this cloud. There will be patchy rain across Western Areas, mainly low cloud, misteran. Further east, is in scotland, east of the pennines, east of wales, herewith a bit of shelter. You could see cloud breaks into the afternoon. That would make you feel quite warmer you get the sunshine. Low 20s celsius otherwise the mid to high teens further north stop this evening, the next batch of rain come sweeping across central and northern areas. This band of greenspring across england and wales in the winter starts to become behind. Tonight again a warm and muggy one in the south. Low teens in the north. Everywhere is pretty much warm and muggy. There is the area of low pressure. Look at the isobars on the southern flank. A real squeezed through parts of scotland, Northern Ireland, Northern England. The met office have yellow warnings in force. Gust of 50 60 mild per hour. We could bring down trees and branches, everything is in fully. A blustery day for all areas. Rain will clear through then its sunshine and showers, mostly showers in the north and west. 30 40 mph in the south, up to 60 further north. That could cause disruption. Temperature is a bit cooler tomorrow as the morning rain clears some cool airwill as the morning rain clears some cool air will push through. Mid to high teens for most. Because the 20 21 in the south east. Diplo pushes off into scandinavia. High pressure starting to nudge in from the south west. It does look for monday and into tuesday, should be a bit drier, quite cool because of the north westerly wind and there should be fewer showers around. This is muggys picture. A breezy day, not as windy as we are expecting tomorrow, further showers in central and eastern areas, increasing amounts of sunshine in the south west as the High Pressure sta rts south west as the High Pressure starts to arrive and the wind should gradually turn later. Weve got the mid to high teens celsius but most can see 20 degrees in the south. Thats how was looking. Back to you two. Time now for reporters, featuring some of the best stories from bbc correspondents around the world. In writing russian polling stations right now, rule number one, but on facemasks and gloves. Rule number two, if you are Vladimir Putin ignall rule number one. The president called this a vote to change russells constitution. To make the country stronger, he says. To protect russells history and its heroes. To guard its Natural Resources , heroes. To guard its Natural Resources, to keep it the animals happy. But critics say the smiles area happy. But critics say the smiles are a smokescreen for the kremlins main objective. Vladimir putin himself and his people, they pretend that the major changes about this, about strengthening russian, russia, but the main idea is to have mr putin stay in the position forever. For this family thats a worrying prospect. In a polling stations that looks more like a clinic, they voted no to the new constitution. But with little hope of winning stop after all, campaigning against the amendments had been banned. And devote itself lacked independent observers. Russia is going in the wrong direction. The direction is to dictatorship. Is going in the wrong direction. The direction is to dictatorshiplj think direction is to dictatorship. think this is a sad day. There will be less political freedom. That is very bad for us. Putin is not acting in our best interests. And he needs to step down. Critics of the vote say whats happening here is nothing more than a show and he is one example, even before polling began copies of the new constitution were printed and published and available in the shops stop it says here on the cover, valid when the official results are announced. In other words, what that result was going to be was never in doubt. Some russians believe that putin forever is a good thing. And express politician staying in power, especially in a country that has difficulties, russia, i think it doesnt hurt if he is supported by the people and thats exactly the case. The president said he would never change the constitution to stay in power. Well. Never say never. So you could see more of this. Only next time itll be the new constitution. Abandoned by their men more than a year ago, the women of the Islamic State group have mostly been forgotten state group have mostly been fo rg otte n by state group have mostly been forgotten by the world. In these camps, women from britain, france, and across the world have been left to fester. A problem ignored. Since their capture, the camps have grown thick with extremism. Its ideology is still in command. So curtis led forces are trying to regain control here to take back their camp reporters. Women have been murdered scores of children have died from disease. Some here claim a change of heart and now fear for their children. For those who speak out against the extremism in the camps, their identities need to be protected. This is tortuous. I cant wait for my children to leave. Even though a dream of living with them and purging my pain, i have no problem staying behind. If not, idea logically speaking, there will be nothing that can be done to save them. It will be too late. And the camps arent holding. Here a raid on a house, the kurdish led stf are looking for is scabies. Escapees. Inside two russian women and one from uzbekistan with their children. They were bound for turkey, say officials. They are now back in detention. There is a newfound to their predicament. The Islamic State group is again on the rise and promises to free the women. In the dead of night in syrias a convoy of kurdish led special forces are on the move earlier this month. Inside this house, is suspects, thought to be armed. 150 were arrested in this operation alone. Many more are at large. The coronavirus and troop withdrawals mean local forces are left to do most of the fighting. Is is back. The caliphate remains, says this graffiti. Terrorising and extorting the people here. This mans son was murdered by the ha rd est. Translation eyewitnesses said the car started following them. It caught up with them and then they we re caught up with them and then they were kidnapped. The next morning their friends organise a search party. They found their decapitated heads resting on the asphalt. Where onceit heads resting on the asphalt. Where once it commanded cities and armies, is is diminished, but it is again emerging from the shadows. The world is distracted, but the men and women of the Islamic State group are determined not to be forgotten. In tokyo they marched. In hong kong they gathered. In bangkok they zoomed. The numbers were smaller but the message of solidarity was still there. For these people black lives matter in asia too. In mainland china, state media condemned the killing of george floyd. So too did government officials. Translation racism against ethnic minorities is a chronic disease of american society. But in this society, muslim minorities are detained in so called red education camps. Foreign critics told to mind their own as nurse. And when it comes to attitudes on race few would argue that china is progressive. Blackface on prime Time Television just one example. In april, signs went up around the city of longo, forbidding black people from entering shops and restaurants, a p pa re ntly entering shops and restaurants, apparently to stop the spread of covid 19. These videos also emerged showing african rest residents appearing to be evicted from their homes. Reddick has lived in china for seven years. He says he feels safe working as an African American artist in shanghai. But even in the citys modern and progressive art scene hes face problems when potential clients find out hes black. And then i maggitt, oh, im sorry, when i 70 photos over. We we re sorry, when i 70 photos over. We were only looking for a chinese person or a white artist or Something Like that when i said the photos over. So this issue of colour and race is definitely something that is global and is systemic. Here in multiethnic singapore a debate on chinese privilege has re emerged. She is better known by her alter ego and she has made a name for herself calling up the racism she sees against indian and malay minorities who make up almost a quarter of the citys population. I think he black lives Matter Movement has joined a spotlight at the double standard in singapore and how we are very quick to talk about racism when its anywhere else but here. But theyre not ready to look inward and how they have lived their lives for many yea rs they have lived their lives for many years and whether they have done anything to potentially offend Anyone Around them. He has spent almost two decades reporting from asia. To him, the regions real test of tolerancing ethnic minorities in top positions. You know, a lot of Companies Like to say we dont discriminate, were inclusive, et cetera, et cetera, but when you get down to brass tacks, to ask yourself how many people are not from the dominant ethnic group and could rise toa dominant ethnic group and could rise to a certain level. Think that of conversation may start, they think it would be a long way off yet. Around the world the black lives Matter Movement azkals new dialogues about race and white privilege. But here in this part of the world the biggest challenge may be similar end the assumption that racism is something that happens somewhere else. In the brilliant blue waters of the mediterranean, another example of the potential damage mankind due to nature. A local Conservation Group alerts the coastguard. Help is needed. And the clock is ticking. This is what they find. One of the oceans largest animals, trapped and desperate. A sperm whale has become tangled up in nets, thought to be used by vessels involved in the Illegal Fishing of swordfish and tuna. This is only a young whale. They can grow to around 12 metres in length, and weigh more than 50,000 kilos. For more than two hours, divers struggle to free the creature, as it became more and more exhausted. Finally, they were able to release it, and monitor the whale it back out to sea. Eventually, the Conservation Team lost contact, but they say they will try to get sight of it once more, to make sure the animal has recovered from its audio. Ordeal. Hello, this is breakfast with Charlie Stayt and Naga Munchetty. Heres a summary of todays main stories from bbc news after more than 100 days in lockdown, people in england can now visit hairdressers, pubs, cinemas and restaurants from today. Its the largest easing of coronavirus restrictions so far, but englands chief medical officer, chris whitty, warned that people will have to continue to respect social distancing and advised wearing Face Coverings to avoid a second wave of the coronavirus pandemic. The Prime Minister also urged people to act responsibly. New local lockdown rules come into force in leicester today after a spike in covid 19 cases, which means the city will not allow pubs, restaurants and hairdressers to re open. Schools remain closed and residents are advised not to travel. Social gatherings and overnight stays at other households are also banned, with fines for those flouting the law. The regulations are due to be reviewed on the 18th ofjuly. Seven Police Officers have been injured after they attempted to break up an Illegal Party in west london. The videos posted on social media show dozens of metropolitan Police Officers retreating as missiles were thrown at them by party goers in white city. No arrests have been made. We are going to be explaining to you through the Programme Lots of new announcements that have been made, changes in the laws in england, and they are also coming in in the developed nations as well. Also changes in sport. And mike, good morning to you. It was all about a tea break, perhaps . Yes, absolutely. There were reasons, many reasons but cannot take place, but i didnt think a cup of tea would be so divisive. Part of the traditions, isnt it, in cricket, of course. At a village level or a local level, for recreational players. Yesterday was like one of those dramatic one day games in cricket. The picture changed so much. But what a boost this morning, for everyone who loves playing a bit of cricket. Teas, dressing rooms and the ball, being a quote, vector of the disease, were all given by the Prime Minister as reasons it couldnt return but its now been given the go ahead in england and wales from next weekend. In a briefing yesterday, borisjohnson announced a u turn, and said the government would publish guidelines to help clubs and players prepare. The governments chief medical officer said it would be very safe. The natural vector of the disease on the ball, and it was garbage, in my opinion, because you can quite easily put a sanitiser in your pocket every time you touch the ball, you use the sanitiser. I think the final straw was today, when he said tea and going into the dressing room, welcome to those who have made recreational cricket, you can play without lunch, and also, you dont need to go into the dressing room. Again, those who have played the recreational game, there are many times i have seen a batsman come from inside their own car and that is what they are going to have to do from next saturday. There are lots of kids that are inspired from the england side last year, with obviously the world cup winner, a fantastic ashes series. An incredible england winds team. I know that have a night has been campaigning as well, showers desperate to see the recreational game back, and next saturday it will be back. Great news for the game. Lewis hamilton roared back into action as the formula 1 season finally got under way at the red bull ring in austria. He was fastest in both practice sessions, leading his Mercedes Team mate valtteri bottas, as he began his quest for a seventh world title which would equal Michael Schumachers record. He was happy but cautious after his days work. It was definitely looking good at there but i think you can never take too much from practice, and if you look at some of the other teams, they may be down on power mode, or upon power mode, orfuel or whatever it may be, so, we will take it with a pinch of salt. Were going to try and see if we improve the car tonight. In the premier league, leicesters home game against Crystal Palace this afternoon will go ahead, despite lockdown restrictions being reintroduced in the city. Their manager Brendan Rodgers says its been business as usual. We are in a bubble here, in terms of ourtraining we are in a bubble here, in terms of our Training Facility and obviously the games, we get regularly tested. So nothing has really changed on that front, and i think it is worth pointing out, you know, i have seen a noticeable difference here in the city of leicester, and the people of leicester, since the lockdown was extending. There was an Extraordinary League one play off semi final last night, as Wycombe Wanderers beat fleetwood town. There were three goals in the first six minutes, wycombe going ahead afterjust 60 seconds, before fleetwood equalised and wycombe took the lead again. Fleetwood finished the game with nine men, and wycombe won it 4 1. The second leg is on monday, with portsmouth and Oxford United level, at 1 1 in the other tie. When you think of derby day, you imagine a carnival of colour, with double decker buses lining the rails, and more than 100,000 people spread across the epsom downs. Of course, this time there will be none of that, and three miles of fencing has been put up around the course to keep people out. But the greatest showman of racing Frankie Dettori is there for the 25th time, and he rides the favourite, english king. For us, it is the most important race, you know, in any sport, in any event. You know, like the Monaco Grand Prix for the formula 1, or the masters at golf, the super bowl. So, the epsom derby, for us, is everything. It is the race that you wa nt to everything. It is the race that you want to win as a jockey. It means a lot. It will be different with no crowd, but the excitement and the task of winning the derby, i think it will be as good as any other years. And it is actually the second part of the triple crown in flat racing. And later on breakfast we will be speaking to the leading jockey this season, oisin murphy, whos trying to add the derby to his 2,000 guinness success. We spoke to him on that morning then and maybe we were his lucky charm. That at 8 30. How many times have you been somebodys lucky charm . How many times have you been somebodys lucky charm . Never. Iwas terrified of jingling somebodys lucky charm . Never. Iwas terrified ofjingling it, it is usually the bushel curse. The commentators curse. You have to try to avoid it. Well, it worked this time. You reversed it. The start of a better thing. See you later, mike, thank you. With restrictions lifting, many of us will be thinking about booking a holiday, and staycations are expected to be popular this year. From today, campsites in england are allowed to reopen, with strict social distancing measures in place. Alison freemanjoins us now from one campsite in cumbria, preparing to welcome guests. Now, that is a stunning view. Why would you not want to be out in that fresh air, enjoying views like that . Good morning. Yeah, good morning. Even with the drizzly rain, people wa nt to even with the drizzly rain, people want to come here. You have got to remember, this is a really big day for the campsite, they have lost a big chunk of their seasonal income, but fortunately, like you are saying, the campus cannot be deterred. These guys arriving right on cue, will be chatting to them in a moment. First, lets check on how people in businesses and the area prepared for today. Getting ready to reopen at last. Yesterday in the lake district, the final preparations were taking place at Hospitality Businesses, today will be welcoming back visitors desperate to start their first holiday after lockdown. In our bar we have a 1 way system. This is the entrance, this is the exit. The ta bles entrance, this is the exit. The tables have been socially distant so they are at least one metre apart. At the quiet side, precautions have put in place to protect counters, but that is not all that is required to keep them safe. A lot of the way were going to operators using the intelligence of our customers, you know, they are going to have to be responsible for their own safety. We should put everything into place for them, so hopefully they will be able to do that. But the other thing that we are going to do is start on a very low occupancy, you know, were just starting with 30 , really, of what would normally take. This row of four tables, we have had one removed and at each table of four there is a seed removed from each one to allow a safe area for the server to put the tray. In nearby puli bridge, the final touches were being put to the tea room to comply with the rules, the number of people that concern has dropped by 30 . M is conflicted, because we are Hospitality Business, and we have been talking about being inhospitable all week, having to ta ke inhospitable all week, having to take peoples details at the door, we have bookings for more than six people, and you can say, well, you can come but you have to be on separate tables, and we are trying to do that without putting up screens and tapered stickers everywhere, so it will be a lovely experience for people. Visitors have been encouraged to stay away from the lakes until now, but the Hospitality Industry has adopted as best as it can. It is going to be tricky, but we are a vibrant industry, we are very innovative, i think. Lots of people, lots of initiative, and we are looking forward to it. At debbies campsite on the other side of the lake, they have done everything they can to get up have done everything they can to get up and running. Again, reduced bookings are key to ensuring social distancing, with extra cleaning schedules introduced. distancing, with extra cleaning schedules introduced. I think businesses are really struggling at the moment, and you know, this is welcome for us. If people are prepared to take the risk to come on holiday, then we are more than willing to do our part, we want to welcome back visitors like we do every year, in a safe environment. Well, one of those visitors you just saw driving in in his campervan is lee joyce. Just tell me, what saw driving in in his campervan is leejoyce. Just tell me, what made you want to come back today so very early in the morning . you want to come back today so very early in the morning . I know, well, as the lockdown has been on for three months, i have been stuck in my house, so i thought i needed to get out, and obvious we show support to the local campsites, which i have been coming to since i was a young man. This is why were here. And it is an exciting day for you in terms of yourvan, is an exciting day for you in terms of your van, isnt it . Yeah, i have only just bought it. Of your van, isnt it . Yeah, i have onlyjust bought it. It is a purchase to try out today. I cant wait, really. Just tell me, this weather, it is not putting you off, being here . No, no. Youjust shut the doors and turn the lights on. It is brilliant. How long are you staying here for . I will probably be here for a week, i guess, because obviously this is the holidays from now on. Look at that smile. That is a man who was very happy to be back at his campsite that he has been coming to since he was a child. A lady was really excited about today is debbie banks. She is the owner, good morning. Tell me how you feel about today . I am thrilled that we are opening up again. These guys are regulars, they come every year. There is that they are excited to be back. Tell me about the things you have had to do to get ready for this big day . Well, we did open in march, we we re big day . Well, we did open in march, we were open for a week and that it was a very swift lockdown. Since then we have been improving the site, we have put improvements in that we would never be able to do usually, because of the inclement weather in the winter. But we have got social distancing measures in place, we have got Hand Sanitisers, you know, there is information all around the site. We are sort of relying on people to be a little bit sensible, you know. And use their nous and are using the facilities. So it is a bit of common sense you are relying on from customers and visitors . I think it is essential, and that is notjust for us, is everywhere. People need to be prepared, if they are coming here, to ta ke prepared, if they are coming here, to take a risk, but obviously, if we have played our part in offering Hand Sanitisers and, you know, putting things in place, then they should certainly adhere to it, whatever they can. As demand been really high . Are people desperate to get back here . Within the first, well, when boris set about opening up, we were inundated with emails, well, we had about a thousand emails over two days, so getting back to them was a lengthy process. But now, we are fully booked every weekend, now, until september, with a little bit of mid week availability. But, yeah. Brilliant, well done. Thank you so much for getting up this early this morning to see your visitors in. As you were saying, naga, with that of you, who wouldnt wa nt to naga, with that of you, who wouldnt want to come back and have their first break of the season here at oz water . I think you would be hard pressed water . I think you would be ha rd pressed to find water . I think you would be hard pressed to find somebody who has a decent excuse not to want to go there. It is absolutely stunning, isnt it . It is so good, not only for people who are getting to have a holiday now, also for those businesses that are creating getting going at this time. We will be going back there through the morning this morning, chatting to people about how it is working out for them. Morning, chatting to people about how it is working out for themm looked really still, didnt it . Still and calm. I wonder if that will be the case for everybody. Because it has actually been quite windy in places, stav. I went for a walk yesterday and it was really blowing. Last weekend it was windy. We had a low pressure system moving of the atlantic. This one is looking even when here, it will feel more like autumn on sunday. We should see some sunshine as well. Rain at times. We have had quite a lot of rain yesterday and overnight across northern Western Areas because of this weather front which is struggling across the country. Westerly winds, not as many isobars on the chart. That is the area of low will into play tonight and tomorrow. Today a breezy day, not really windy as it will be tomorrow. A lot of loud across the country thick enough for spots of rain across western scotland and northernmost in wales and north west england. Is the high ground. You should see brightness at times. That should see brightness at times. That should move temperature to the low 20s celsius. For many of them into high teens, but very humid and moisture laden air. As we head into this evening, rain starts to move into Northern Ireland, scotland, weather front sweeps across england and wales. The winds will start to pick up as well. It will be quite a warm and muggy night, particularly in the south. It tomorrow we have most concerns. This area deepening as it moves to the uk. All the isobars indicate it will be very windy. A cold front behind it, cooler and fresher essoh we will be cooler and fresher essoh we will be cooler tomorrow than we had today, we lose the humidity. The early rain clears away, and its we lose the humidity. The early rain clears away, and its bright with lots of sunshine around but heavy showers, some of the sundre, Northern Ireland, scotland, maybe northwestern wales. The wind gusts, 3040 northwestern wales. The wind gusts, 30 40 mph across the south. 50 60 scotla nd 30 40 mph across the south. 50 60 scotland and Northern Ireland and Northern England. These could lead to some disruption. Temperatures, mid teens at best in the north. Hire teens further south. Again with plenty of sunshine. Not too bad a day across the south east, the sunshine will be very windy. The diplo pushes off to scandinavia. We see High Pressure starting to move in from the south west as we move into next week. Although it is quite cool with a cool air mass coming in from the north west, showers should ease down as the High Pressure bills. Monday is another breezy day, not as windy as sunday. Showers around, central, northern, and eastern areas, closer to that area of low that is putting off to scandinavia, drierfor of low that is putting off to scandinavia, drier for the south west because of the pressure building. Temperatures, high teens for many. We could scrape 20 across the south east. It will be fresher. Through the week, looks high will build in. Identity gives the high that will bring warm. It will turn drier and brighter cross southern and eastern areas for a time. It looks like more low pressure systems will push in especially to the north and west bringing further spells of rain. At times it will be quite windy. A little bit of a settled speu windy. A little bit of a settled spell into the start of next week thenit spell into the start of next week then it looks like we will see more rain at times in the north and the west. Stav, thank you very much. We will see you sun, sea, surf and social distancing. As spain and other European Countries open their borders to tourists, we ask if its wise to go on holiday when our health could still be at risk. Well, for a change lets start with some good news. It looks like holidays to many parts of europe are back on the cards this summer thanks to countries like spain, italy and france and greece reopening their borders to tourists from a list of designated countries. But assuming you do get to soak up that recently, the islands run a Pilot Project to test spains new coronavirus objection measures for tourists and we went along to see how it went. Protection measures. It was one of the hardest hit areas. Children stayed at home and the army patrolled the streets. In march done its entire tourist industry. A move greeted with sadness. They wanted the world know that they we re they wanted the world know that they were this seriously. To test their covid 19 countermeasures, spain invited 11,000 germans over two weeks to fly to the islands. The first flight arrived in mid june, the aim to show how is been could keep tourists safe we feel very safe at the moment. It was very good organiser we are happy be here. Good organised. None of these arrivals were subject to the two week quarantine that was imposed on all visitors since the beginning of spains state of emergency. Instead, they had their temperatures checked and were asked to hand over Contact Details for their accommodation. For Tourism Companies here, it has all been very welcome. Its very good news that after 92 days we are getting our first arrivals back to mallorca. Obviously its been a very complicated period of time here on the island and generally obviously the world. But tourism is a very important part of the spanish economy and it needs to start again. The tourists were sent to a select few half full hotels where hand sanitising, social distancing and a self checking system were in place. I think all of the people wanted to have a chance to take a little sun and reach may be a little bit of normality. We want to go to beaches. We feel safe, here. But for some people, there are still some hurdles to overcome. If you have too many things to check at the airport, it will be a disaster. And then it takes two or three hours to leave the airport. I dont know if people will like this. If tourists develop any symptoms, they will be tested for free within 24 hours and then get results within 48 hours. The trail was cut short when spain opened its borders to travellers onjune 21. In the end, just a fraction of the German Tourists expected to take part came, but this declared it a success. There is no guarantee the Safety Measures in mallorca will be placed throughout spain and every traveller will have two research their destination thoroughly and way health risks for themselves. You miss this so much and the thing we most miss, like staying in the scene with everybody in public, it was amazing today. So, we are happy that we had people cheering for us. Hey all looks great, but i know there are lots of people out there with reservations about flying. So joining sojoining me at so joining me at stjamess park sojoining me at stjamess park in the heart of london, at an appropriate distance, of course, our global guru simon calder and a writer from the norwegian. Ive been doing flying yes you have its not too bad. If you are one of those people who are really concerned about social distancing, dont go near an aircraft this summer, because youre not going to get any. But if you think, well, probably my fellow passengers, the other people im going to encounter are of course not going to travel if they are asymptomatic or have been told they are infected, then its all right. Its pretty austere, kind of back to the 70s, but, yeah, ithink those of us determined will be able to get where we need to be. Youre going to have problems of course in terms of social distancing in the big resorts, but thats going to become much easier because after people at least are not going to be showing up. There is an enormous reluctance out there are people who have perhaps got used to lockdown, they are feeling kind of safe, kind of comfortable, and the idea of suddenly going out and meeting 1000 strangers dimly doesnt appeal. And youve got this tension of course between well, obviously i want to preserve my health and i dont want to risk anyone elses, but im also desperate to see the wonders of the world and enjoy travel. Philip, the region is one of the low cost airlines. The Business Model relies on coming to berlin, how do you keep people safe . We have adopted a number of measures, including our cleaning routines and routinely keeping touch. Going forward, we will be sanitising all the touch points, armrests, tray tables, toilets and ensuring that distancing can take onboard as much as possible. The middle seat will be assigned last on but families, groups, they will still be able to travel together but individuals will set apart. And also people taking responsibility. If you are showing symptoms or are due to isolate, you really should not be travelling. The Airline Industry as a whole is doing Everything Possible to make sure travel is as safe as it can be, but there will be reduced capacity. I mean, there are less flights taking place in summer and that in turn means less people travelling as well. And i guess its all about giving customers that peace of mind they are being looked after if they do choose to fly . Well, can i put in a couple of points here . Yeah, of course. Its absolutely correct. Easyjet, the biggest Budget Airline in britain, cutting 70 of its place injuly, august, and september, ryanair, the biggest european Budget Airline, they are cutting maybe 60 of flights injuly. As a result of that they are trying to fill every single seat on every single flight. And aviation will not be for you if you want to absolutely minimise the risk of contact, you are going to be taking a risk. And all the airlines are doing great things to try to provide reassurance, but i think thats what it is, it cannot be any kind of guarantee. I used to clean out plans in Gatwick Airport here in london. And, frankly, its a tough old business when you have had 180 people on a plane. Its not great, particularly in the time available, for you to be able to get absolutely everything perfect. So some people may Say International air travel is the reason why Coronavirus Spread so quickly in the first place. Lets say someone was travelling from oslo to london, for example, and they ended up bringing in spreading the virus. Does norwegian take responsible for that . The social distancing measures at airports are completely different to how they were in march. Most airports stop flying for the last three months and it has taken us this long to also liaise with the European Safety Agency to really find what methods are the best to ensure that the best 80 protocols. I mean, no guarantee but people have a personal responsibility to be careful. Does the airline have responsibility to let passengers know if they have just long with someone who has tested positive with covid . Many countries requiring everybody who comes into fill a passenger locator form out and that says hes where i have been coming here are my Contact Details, here is where im going to be whether its at home or your destination when you are on vacation and here is the flight came in on and here is the flight came in on and here is the flight came in on and he is my seat, 203f so if somebody in 22 d becomes symptomatic than the local Health Organisation can get in touch and say you have to self isolate for 14 days. Its not perfect but its the best weve got. Good morning. Welcome to breakfast, with Naga Munchetty and Charlie Stayt. Our headlines today england eases lockdown in whats being described as the biggest step yet on the road to recovery. Lockdown only succeeded in controlling the virus because everyone worked together. And we will only succeed in reopening if everyone works together again. Pubs, restaurants, cinemas and hairdressers can all reopen with social distancing measures in place. And it is all systems go in this salon. We have covered the screens for a big post lockdown first had a transformation, coming soon. How do transformation. And a big draw from the boundary as recreational cricket is given the go ahead to return. It can start the next weekend in england and wales. After government worries about the traditional tea break, government u turns now says it can be made very safe. Sweeping in this weekend will bring lots of cloud, outbreaks of rain and the most notable feature of the weather this weekend will be the wind. Unusually windy forjuly. We could see gales across many parts, as we head through the course of sunday. Joined me later, and i will have all been weather details for you. Have all the weather details. Its saturday, july the 4th. Our top story. The largest easing of coronavirus restrictions so far has come into effect in england. Some hairdressers welcomed back customers at midnight, while pubs, restaurants and cinemas are allowed to reopen this morning. The Prime Minister has warned people to act responsibly even though lockdown rules have been eased. Our reporter danjohnson joins us now from a pub in west london. Joinjust now from join just now from outside a pub. Dan, some are allowed to open from six oclock, it is unlikely we will see that, but caution is very much the word, as much as getting the economy going . Absolutely, yes. There is certainly caution here. This pub isnt reopening early this morning. They are allowed to open from six oclock but the reality is most will not have licenses to allow that. So possibly we will see pubs opening later today, maybe into the afternoon and the evening. I think the reality will be that this will bea the reality will be that this will be a gradual step that will take time. But they will not already open today, they may not even already opened this week. Even when they do, it is not going to be the pub as you know it. There will be social distancing in place to some degree, there is mention of one metre plus with additional measures. You will not be able to approach the bar, you will not be able to drink at the bar. No vertical drinking. We are talking about Table Service, extra cleaning procedures, trying to book ta bles cleaning procedures, trying to book tables in advance so they know how many people are coming and where they are sitting. And he will have to leave some details so that if there is an outbreak linked to that pub, that bar, that establishment, they can trace back when you have been and who has been there. So, lots to consider if people are going to go back to pubs today, and words of caution about not getting carried away with this, not going overboard, because there is still risk. Now, if you are sat at home wondering who would want to be at a pub so early after waiting so long, well, the duke of cambridge went to his local pub in norfolk yesterday to see how the staff were preparing, and he enjoyed a pint of cider. Dan, thanks very much. We will see those pictures a little bit later on, actually. That was danjohnson. Lets speak now to our Political Correspondent jonathan blake. This is a significant day, isnt it, but every time we talk about how maybe the pubs, cinemas and restau ra nts maybe the pubs, cinemas and restaurants will be looking and feeling differently, it is very important to say that the risk has not gone away. This message is one that the government has sometimes struggled with. Good morning, charlie. Yes, you are right. This is a big step out of lockdown for england, perhaps a big step back to life as it was before coronavirus, albeit with some very important differences still in place. But as the Prime Minister was at pains to point out in the downing street briefing he held yesterday evening, these steps are not being taken without risk, and the chief medical officer and chief scientific advisor as well pointed out that going to the pub or gathering in larger groups than we have been used to over the last few weeks and months isa over the last few weeks and months is a potentially risky thing to do, and taking these steps to relax the restrictions could well see an increase in coronavirus cases, or at least allow the virus to spread more widely than it has done during the lockdown. And that is why you had the Prime Minister yesterday urging people to enjoy summer safely, and there is a bit of a good cop, bad cop routine from two senior cabinet ministers in the papers this morning. The chancellor, in an interview with the times, saying that people need to relearn how to go out and enjoy themselves, and eat out to help out, so rishi sunak very much encouraging us to go out and ta ke much encouraging us to go out and take advantage of the new freedoms that there are in england. But the Health Secretary matt hancock, on the other hand, reminding people that if they break the law they could find themselves locked up. Jonathan, for the moment, thank you. So, as we saw with dan, some pubs can open from six oclock. But since midnight, some hairdressers in england have been open since then. Adam mcclean has been to visit a salon in lancashire, which welcomed its first customers since march. More than three months and around five centimetres of average hair growth later, some couldnt wait a minute longer. Scissors at the ready, as the clock struck 12 00, it was time for a cut and colour. I think its one of the first times ive got properly dressed and ready to come out of the house, really, and put some shoes on, because i think i had flip flops on for 16 weeks, and slippers, so even that was really nice, a couple of hours before, getting ready to come. My hair has grown really well, but itsjust been four months, and yeah, desperate times to get back. These customers in lancashire were first to book their midnight appointments. While pubs had to wait until this morning to pull theirfirst pint, some hairdressers and barbers in england worked through the night. It feels lovely, it feels really good to be back. We left on such a low, it were awful. We were worried for the health of our staff, we were worried for the health of ourselves, our families. We worried for the business. It were really sad, closing the doors. But we did it, and 14 weeks later were back and were ready. I mean, im not going to lie, i have actually enjoyed the time at home, especially with all the fantastic weather weve had, but yeah, its about more thanjust doing hairfor me. Its a community that were building here. Some of our clients, well, i know some of my clients, ive been doing their hair for 25 years. Many of us have been doing our best to keep our own hair in check, but some things are just best left to professionals now with visors and social distancing, with fewer customers at any one time. The guidelines that weve received through the governing body, the hairdressers governing body, and the government, are that we only actually need to wear this face visor, so im guessing thats probably what we might do Going Forward. I now can see, doing claires hair here, wearing a mask and a visor probably aint going to work out, because im steaming up a bit. But anyway, it doesnt matter, its all good fun. Well crack on and well get the job done and well do what we need to do. Many salons are offering longer Opening Hours, with more appointments, to clear the three month backlog, with fresh haircuts no longer a distant memory after perhaps the strangest friday night out for some. Not everywhere in england is enjoying a sense of freedom today, however. New local lockdown rules come into force in leicester today, after a spike in coronavirus cases. It means businesses in the city wont be reopening, and a ban on social gatherings and overnight stays is included in the new legislation, with fines for those flouting the law. Our reporter geeta pendse is in leicester now. We were both so excited about throwing to you. Listen, it is really interesting. Mr will almost represent the tone of many around the country. There is frustration, people of course want to see lockdown eased, but they also want to feel safe, so there is a lot of sympathy for what is going on in leicester by those who live there as well . Yes, absolutely, and it is a very different picture here today, but lots of measures being put into place. Leicestershire police, for example, say they will have more officers on duty than they would atypical new years eve, while British Transport Police say they are going to have a much higher presence in leicester train station. The advice here is to really only travel in and out of leicester if it is absolutely essential, and a number of pubs in particular which forjust outside the restrictions zone have decided not to reopen because of safety concerns, while places like nottingham, of pubs and bars say they will be asking for id. But as you say, there is a lot of frustration here, but i think a lot of people to understand why they are doing this, and the hope is that by staying at home, by observing the rules, the infection rate will go down here and leicester can move forward to. Geeta, thank you very much. Seven Police Officers have been injured after they attempted to break up an Illegal Party in west london. Videos posted on social media show dozens of metropolitan Police Officers retreating as missiles were thrown at them by party goers in white city. So far, no arrests have been made. Donald trump has kicked off celebrations for the 4th ofjuly weekend in the United States with an appearance at the famous Mount Rushmore monument. However, the president has also been accused of acting irresponsibly by holding a crowded event, as coronavirus cases continue to soar across the country. Our north america correspondent david willis has more. As the number of coronavirus cases hit yet another new record and his own medical experts advised against large gatherings, President Trump held an independent Independence Day celebration. Let us also send our deepest thanks to our wonderful First Responders and the doctors, nurses and scientists working tirelessly to kill the virus. More than 50,000 new coronavirus cases we re than 50,000 new coronavirus cases were recorded across the country for the second day in succession on friday, and at least five states said sink set a single day records. President trump is more concerned about protests and pandemics, though, as monuments to confederate leaders have been toppled by protesters calling for police reform, it has focused his response on the need for law and order. In the face of the recent National Reckoning over Race Relations in this country following the death of george floyd, the president directed rhetorical fireworks at those who he said were seeking to tear down the nations history. These heroes will never be defaced. Their legacy will never, ever be destroyed. Their achievements will never be forgotten. The gathering at Mount Rushmore incensed some native americans, who regard the land on which it sits as belonging to them. They also expressed concerns the gathering will spread to be coronavirus to nearby indian reservations. Thousands are expected to gather along Washingtons National mall against the advice of the citys now. Citys mayor. Dozens of landmarks across the uk will be lit up in blue this evening, to mark tomorrows 72nd anniversary of the founding of the nhs. People are being encouraged to observe a minutes silence and light a candle in remembrance of those who have died during the pandemic. A nationwide round of applause is set to take place tomorrow evening at 5 00pm, to thank the Health Service and its key workers. It will be quite a sight, wont it, things lit up in blue, buildings lit up things lit up in blue, buildings lit up in blue this evening. Yes, and i think the other thing is it will ta ke think the other thing is it will take people back in their minds to the time when on those thursday evenings, everybody was out clubbing for the nhs. Although it already feels like it was quite a long time ago, doesnt it . Yes. In a funny kind of way. How long have we been under lockdown measures . 17 weeks . Just over 100 days, i think, altogether. So it has been a very long time. Very much a focus this morning is on how communities will look and feel, possibly a bit different, because of certain businesses opening, pubs and response and other things, all of it coming alongside words of real caution from the scientists and from the medics about the risks that still remain. Well, John Macguire is in bristol this morning for us, and we have seen down outside a pub as well, asjohn said. Are you on the water . What a lovely view have, john. Sorry, but me by complete surprise. I didnt know what your view was like. Tell me about it . There we go. We thought we would bring you somewhere special this morning. Lots of pubs, of course, pubs are wonderful places, as we know, were about to ourselves with them. But this is the graham barge, a floating bar on the river haven. You will of course recognise the Ss Great Britain in the back. Look, stripes on the floor, painted lines on the floor, the type of thing that we are increasingly used to, of course, to ensure that there is that to me to distance. I will bring you into the bar now. We will say good morning to meyer, who is getting ready. They are about five hours from opening, they open at midday later today. It will be Table Service only, you will not be able to prop up the bar, one of my favoured positions. Lots of restrictions, really, the idea of course is to make sure the staff are safe and to make sure customers are safe. And also to make sure customers are happy to come out once again and to spend money in the Hospitality Industry. Brewing is back. They can busy during lockdown by producing bottle beer. In a few weeks ago the bristol beer. In a few weeks ago the bristol bea beer. In a few weeks ago the bristol be a factory took a punt the pubs would be allowed to reopen in england this weekend and so they are ready to supply them. I wonder, now youve brooded, will they come . Im hoping people will come out and support the local pubs. Hope we can be sensible and they will react in an intelligent way to the measures we have all had to put in place to ensure the safety of our staff and the safety of our customers. So that hopefully we can continue to build, as we return to something approaching normal. But there is a great unknown. No one will have the a nswer great unknown. No one will have the answer for weeks to come, i suspect. At the front of the brewery, in the pub trade in 2020 is in use, a tape measure, ensuring that if and hopefully when people come for a drink today theyll be able to keep safely and socially distance. And if your brother happens to be a joiner, why not utilise his skills, as the landlord has come at the coopers arms . We have all these bays people are ready for people ready decision. We have the perspex. The customers we have individual panels to divide everybody up. All these have little perspex windows in so that when our customers sit down they can see who they are sat next to and chat through the window and they can also shout for a drink from here, if they think, if they can catch one of the cells eyes and their drinks will be brought out to them. Public safety is the main concern. Emergency services are ready. Always busy on saturday nights in town and city centres, but what will tonight be like . Has been very difficult for everybody in terms of the impact on Mental Health and well being so i fully expect people will want to go out and party and we would not want to rain on anybody bowman parade in that regard but we are preparing for there to be quite significant increase demand. They know the wider nhs are also planning and a Police Colleagues additionally. We expect to see, think, new years eve type events in terms of numbers, volumes, although it has to be said that nightclubs arent opening so in terms of the timings of things things should quite down sooner. And the police are warning people to manage expectations. If youre going to go out there do it responsibly, think ahead, think where you are going, and make sure the place you are going to can accommodate you safely. We do recognise that its important for local businesses as well to get back to a new sense of normal, but what we want to do is just make sure people do that in a safe way because we just need to understand that we are still very much in this pandemic and we need to make sure we do all we can to ensure that we tackle this virus. Once the board is part of the soundproofing as this is a music venue, soundproofing as this is a music venue, now soundproofing as this is a music venue, now they are being repurposed as screens between tables and the music must be low so the customers dont raise their voices and potentially spread coronavirus. We used to have loud music in here, we wont be able to have that. However im confident that people are very social creatures and they will be able to adapt to it in the short term. However, the music will be very low, hopefully it will be a nice hub of talking and people enjoying themselves and that will create an atmosphere, rather than us creating an atmosphere that people wa nt to creating an atmosphere that people want to be in, if that makes sense. Replacing flyers for bands are a track and trace on, details of an app to order drinks, and a list of dos and donts. So not a typical saturday night. And in terms of the amount of customers allowed in, pubs and bars will only be able to serve and bars will only be able to serve a fraction of their normal number. Many will struggle to break even. But for this first night in months their doors will be open. They wont be calling timejust their doors will be open. They wont be calling time just yet. One of the other advantages about this bar is we have a great big upper deck and some outdoor space and, indeed, some sales to protect us from the weather which isnt really doing us any favour this morning. We are speaking to the aptly named kaytlen fairweather. Good morning to you. Your doors open at midday, will people come . Yes, we are another booking two days ago and we have taken as many as we can feasibly ta ke taken as many as we can feasibly take at the moment its looking like they are going to come. So you are doing a booking system. We are. Take us through some of the rules you brought in, restrictions to keep everybody safe. As an industry we really had to start looking at pretty much everything we do and work out whether its a safe roster feasibly do anymore so far and bringing in this Table Service to minimise people moving around, drastically reducing the tables on site, we have had to assess all elements of the business to make sure it all done safely. There is perspex in front of the bar, some of your staff will be wearing visors also, it will be Table Service. And sherratt is quite nice. To get it in a pub would be quite nice. Sherratt is quite nice. To get it in a pub would be quite nicem sherratt is quite nice. To get it in a pub would be quite nice. It will be different, guess. Your capacity, just talk us through the numbers, are you running at half capacity . We running out of though, believers w to have 100 capacity on our subject, the main deck was 100 150, and the downstairs was 100 persons. We have really had to spread out our tables and reduce the numbers down and make sure we have got as many people safely as we can add in the open air. A lot of pubs and bars will be too small to open or may not feel co mforta ble too small to open or may not feel comfortable in opening. You will need to open. Were you determine to open today or was it something that. It wasnt a decision we took lightly. It is doubling something that has been months and weeks working out whether it would be viable for us to open. Obviously you really do have to take special care today because a lot of people will be coming out, it is of a sum they have been able to do it in months. It is not a decision we took lightly today, is something we researched in great detail. We are about five minutes. We are five hours away from opening. Are you nervous . Im more keen to get moving, to be honest with you. I dont think theres any space for nervousness. We have been talking about it for months now and making sure everything is ready. Looking to do it and do it right and have the day out of the way. Well, good luck. We will talk to you again in a couple of hours. We will see how the nerves are feeling that. Just show you a bit more of the view of the river eden. Some of the old bonded warehouses in the distance. Ss Great Britain behind us. A perfect location i suppose if you are coming averaging today, you will have had to book. Nice nice open air enabling you to socially distant. But not every hospitality venue will have the same advantages as this place has. I guess we willjust have to see how it goes later on how people are feeling and how long it will take life to go back to normal as regards to going out, eating, drinking, meeting up with friends and families in pubs, bars, and restau ra nts. And families in pubs, bars, and restaurants. Very good, john. Thank you for that. Stav was listening in. He will do the weather in a second. Cast your eyes skywa rd he will do the weather in a second. Cast your eyes skyward and give us a thought, john. Its raining. You can probably see it on the lens. Ijust cleared up a bit but the wind is coming in this way. He knows his stuff. Stav, what you think about that . Spot on. I have a picture behind me in anglesey which is showing similar conditions. A lot of grey cloud rolling in from the west today, quite humid moisture laden air moving and of the atlantic. Here it is in anglesey. What we have got as low pressure moving in tonight and tomorrow that will bring some very strong winds, unusually strong winds for the time of year. We could see gales, could even cause some disruption through sunday and there will be further rain at times. Write an unsettled weekend and last weekend, if you remember, we had some Winter Weather thanks to low pressure. Westley wi nd some Winter Weather thanks to low pressure. Westley wind streaming and of the atlantic, bringing the moisture laden air. Is going to be getting the hills across Western Areas and continue to bring outbreaks of light rain and drizzle here. A bit of shelter from that westerly wind is of high ground, is wales, north west england, is in scotla nd wales, north west england, is in scotland so we should see some glimmers of brightness. When the sun comes out with this warm and humid air mass it will feel quite warm. Damages in one or two spots could reach the mid 20s celsius. As it is the high density north and low 20s across the south. The breeze will be fairly strong. The wind will pick up all the while this evening and overnight. Another batch of rain sweeps through across the country. A week of weather front spreading across england and wales overnight and this is a cold front and there will be fresh and moving behind. It will be fresh and moving behind. It will be fresh and moving behind. It will be generally another muggy night for most. A dib area of low pressure through sunday, putting to the north of the uk on its southern flank. The north of the uk on its southern fla n k. Lots the north of the uk on its southern flank. Lots of isobars so it will be extremely windy. That is the cold front i was talking too. Eventually clearing away from the south east in the morning and then it is a bright day. Many areas will stay dry across southern and Eastern England and parts of wales. But lots of showers across scotland, Northern Ireland, Northern England, North West Wales stop here we will see the strongest of the winds, squeezing the isobars, could produce 50 50 mile per hour dust and bring down some branches, even trees. Further south, 30 40 mph. A blustery day forjuly. It will feel more like autumn. The mid teens of this to the high teens further south. That area of low pressure screws off into scandinavia on monday. High pressure starts to build and from the south west. A run of north westerly winds it would phil mickelson. Into the start of next week it will be quite fresh north westerly winds could move on. Here is the picture for monday. A breezy day. By 20 but not as many as sunday. Showers in many central and eastern areas. Higher pressure on the south west, drier, plenty of sunshine around. Many areas should see sunshine. Temperature isjust scraping 20 degrees in the south east otherwise low to mid teens. Through the week, High Pressure holds on through southern areas to bring more sunshine at times, further rain or showers in the north and west. Stav, thanks very much. See you in half an hour. Focusing in on some of the businesses that will be opening today, jayne is at a air salon for us. Good morning to you. Air salons want to get business moving. Ican air salons want to get business moving. I can see some people wanting to get ahead on today. But what were saying is the of the worry some people have about any group of people getting together in a place in relation to coronavirus. Absolutely, because we know its still out there. 156 deaths were announced yesterday. Everybody here is taking the safety precautions very seriously, are we not . Good morning from everybody in claires salon. We will talk more about those safety features in a moment. Let me introduce everybody. We have just come away with your feet. She is getting her air done at the bottom basin. William, 12 year old, getting this first hairdo. Claire is here with clientjill who we are not going to showers you for a moment because we want to build your big transformation moment, jill. At the end we have gabrielle. Good morning to everybody. Have a look at when jill arrived in the salon at 6am and gave us a first wave. Can we see these pictures . She gave us a first wave and back and she was rocking a bit of a camilla hairdo. It had gone long. And then what we did, after you had yourair long. And then what we did, after you had your air washed annual cuts started, we covered the mirrors. Now we can do your big reveal. Actually, the nation can see you, you cant see yourself yet. Tell us, you are meant to have a hairdo on the day the country locked down. Yes. And i was desperate and as it was six weeks since my last haircut. You have mist this. Obviously in a pandemic care is the least of our worries, but you have mist it. Absolutely. Its lovely to have somebody do it and then you go out filling 1 million. Like a new warmer. Like a new warmer. New woman. Lets get the sheet often the big reveal. Lets see what you think. Are you liking it . Yes, i think. Are you liking it . Yes, i think so. Late if im not laughter. Letsjudge to think so. Late if im not laughter. Lets judge to clean out. Obviously we are having fun this morning, but it is safety first. Talk us through the measures. So we have had a full salon refurbishment, we decided because of the situation to have extractor fans but in the ceiling, which is great, take everything up there. We have these, criteria and guidelines, a health check declaration form, every client has to fill in. These are questions you are asking people . Yes, id declare and confirm i have not had a continuous cough, sense of taste and smell, genuine generally unwell. Ido smell, genuine generally unwell. I do not home with anybody self isolating, i do not home with anybody self isolating, have not come into contact with anybody suspected to be positive for covid 19. I have been complying with all social distancing rules at all times. And you need people to be honest. If they are feeling poorly, its holiness that matters more than that appointment, you can make another one another day. The same for the staff as well. We have separate once for every employee. Safety first. Youll notice there is no music playing, no loud music allowed in salons because they dont want people projecting over the music and getting those respiratory droplets into the atmosphere. Masks for clients are not compulsory. Visors are. The thinking is that those visors. Any droplets getting to claire and from claire. Spin around and letsjust say good morning properly to gabrielle. Morning we will see your transformation soon. But you were itching to do this. I was. Because i was stuck at home, not stuck at home, my work from home as a personal trainer, so my hair is never nice anyway. And they have two children they have to run around, a ten year old and a two year old. It is nice to come out and feel half attractive. Like a lady like a lady. Do join us later with more transformations and how its going. Jayne, thank you very much. It is interesting to hear how now, come the day, actually in practice things will work in each of these individual places. Looking at pubs throughout the programme this morning. Feel free to send us your thoughts on going out, perhaps youre going to be pubs or you dont to hair appointments, get in touch the usual way. Headlines are coming up. Hello, this is breakfast with Charlie Stayt and Naga Munchetty. Good morning. Heres a summary of todays main stories from bbc news. After more than 100 days in lockdown, people in england can now visit hairdressers, pubs, cinemas and restaurants from today. Its the largest easing of coronavirus restrictions so far, but englands chief medical officer, chris whitty, warned that people will have to continue to respect social distancing and advised wearing Face Coverings to avoid a second wave of the coronavirus pandemic. The Prime Minister also urged people to act responsibly. The uk total deaths has now passed 44,000. In leicester, a local lockdown is in force after a sharp rise in cases of covid 19, which means the city will not allow pubs, restaurants and hairdressers to re open. Schools remain closed and residents are advised not to travel. Social gatherings and overnight stays at other households are also banned, with fines for those flouting the law. The regulations are due to be reviewed on the 18th ofjuly. Seven Police Officers have been injured after they attempted what is happening today in terms of lockdown restrictions easing. Will it bring more health risks . We can speak to a gp this morning, dr rachel ward. No work for you today, iam rachel ward. No work for you today, i am assuming . A day off . Yes, looking forward to a day off today. Good. How has your week been . Things are still going pretty well, actually, thank you. We are very much working, we are using this slight long period, iwould much working, we are using this slight long period, i would say, to really get our house in order. We are working really hard to catch up ona are working really hard to catch up on a lot of our chronic disease management, making sure that this pa rt management, making sure that this part of our work, which we normally do all year, but which there has been a bit of a gap, it is really sorted. We are focusing on that at the moment. Tell us a little bit, as we today are reporting, it is quite a significant change today, isnt it, in terms of communities . Things that are opening. We are talking about pubs, campsites, restaurants, hairdressers, a moment ago. Of course, lots of individuals are celebrating because they can do things they could not do before. The businesses love it as well. Ijust wonder, as a medical profession, to what extent are you embracing it . Well, i think overall, i what extent are you embracing it . Well, ithink overall, i have what extent are you embracing it . Well, i think overall, i have quite a mixed feelings about it, charlie, i will be honest. We have to remember that lockdown has had a really negative impact on a lot of people. It has really affected their well being, their Mental Health, it has affected people financially, which again, has huge knock on effects of their health. This is a positive day for a lot of people, andi positive day for a lot of people, and i am pleased, to see people who have worked so hard to get their businesses up and running, ifeel positive about that, it is going to help a lot of people who have struggled with the isolation under lockdown. However, ithink struggled with the isolation under lockdown. However, i think the doctor side of me still has that apprehension, i think the scenes that we saw on the beach as a couple of weeks ago, i really hope that people do not take this a step too far, i really hope people will remain sensible and see the positives of the way things are, embrace the change and enjoy it, but sensibly. It is interesting, the word commonsense is being used a at the moment. Government officials are saying, we rely on people to use their common sense along with the guidelines and restrictions. I am sure at the same time, there are people who must come into your surgery, who are asking you, maybe they have specific conditions, but they have specific conditions, but they are asking you, if im going somewhere, i am going to do some of the things i am now allowed to do that i wasnt. Should i wear a Face Covering . When, where, how, you know, what risk is fair to me, how do you advise people . know, what risk is fair to me, how do you advise people . I think we a lwa ys do you advise people . I think we always have to remember about the reason that people are asked to wear Face Coverings is not actually to protect themselves. It is to protect other people around them. It is to stop the spread of the virus if they have it. So really, the same rules really apply to everybody, rather than the higher risk groups with Face Coverings. We know that it is a legal requirement to wear a Face Covering going on public transport. You also have to wear a Face Covering going into a hospital, going to a gp surgery in england now. And that is really to minimise the risk for everyone around you. You know, the guidelines are also around going into an enclosed space, andi around going into an enclosed space, and i think now they will be other insta nces and i think now they will be other instances where people will be asked to do so, if social distancing it two metres is not necessary that a facemask may also be requested, and we know that there is evidence it does help minimise the spread. I think maybe in the uk we are not so used to wearing Face Coverings, but iwe are used to wearing Face Coverings, but i we are getting there, and there is progress with it. I am hesitant to ask you this, because it is a very personal decision, but i wonder, does dr rachel ward and herfamily go to does dr rachel ward and herfamily gotoa does dr rachel ward and herfamily go to a pub this weekend . Do you go toa go to a pub this weekend . Do you go to a restaurant . I think there will bea to a restaurant . I think there will be a lot of people watching this morning he was slightly agonising over some of those decisions, their instincts, which is, you know, wanting a bit of normal, and maybe they are not medical professionals, but they are thinking they just dont know. Well, i am happy to a nswer dont know. Well, i am happy to answer that. As a family, we are going to our village pub tomorrow, for sunday lunch, and the reason i am doing that is because i want to support our local pub, which is obviously struggling during this period. However, i have chosen a time which i think will be a little bit quieter than the middle of the afternoon today. And i will go and my family afternoon today. And i will go and myfamily and afternoon today. And i will go and my family and i will take precautions, we will socially distance, we will wash our hands frequently, and if i go and people are acting irresponsibly, ifeel that things are not saved, i think it would really affect my decision to return. But, you know, iwant it would really affect my decision to return. But, you know, i want to give people the benefit of the doubt andi give people the benefit of the doubt and i want to support local businesses tomorrow. Rachel, really interesting talking to you this morning. This is an important weekend in many ways. We wish you well in the weeks and months ahead with your work. Thank you. Thanks, charlie. What doctor ward was saying that really reflects the government s message as well. Matt hancock is obviously saying, as Health Secretary, be careful, think about safety for others, be alert. And then rishi sunak, the chancellor, has said that we need to get the economy going, money needs to be spent. That equally helps with Mental Health, with peoples medical welfare as well. It is really interesting seeing that balance, yeah interesting seeing that balance, yea h sto p interesting seeing that balance, yeah stop i think the advices, just try to be sensible, be sensible, as much as you can. It is 7 38am. Time to talk about sport. Mike, the smile of yours, it started off with a bit of football, the bundesliga, then it was south korea, i think, as well. And football starting, but now lots of things are creeping back in, analogies it is the turn of cricket . Yeah, and most importantly for me it is that grassroots, as an amateur player, very bad player, if you like, people are doing sport, it is good for you, it is great fun with your friends. Were talking recreational cricket coming back. Whod have thought the traditional cricket tea would have stirred up such controversy . But it was the fear of all the players and families, congregating in a small pavillion, pawing the buffet, and the sandwiches, and chatting over their cuppas that was one of the reasons why the Prime Minister said recreational cricket couldnt return. Also dressing rooms and the ball being a vector of the disease. But the government has done a u turn, and its now been given the go ahead in england and wales from next weekend. Theyll be publishing guidlines on how clubs and players can make it safe, and one former england captain is relieved at the change of heart. The natural vector of the disease on the ball, that was garbage, in my opinion, because you can quite easily put a sanitiser in your pocket, every time you touch the ball, you use the sanitiser. I think the final straw was today, when he said tea and going into the dressing room well, those who have played recreational cricket, you can play without lunch, and also, you dont need to go into the dressing room. Again, those who have played the recreational game, theres many times i have seen a batsman come from inside their own car and thats what theyre going to have to do from next saturday. I think therell be a lot of excited kids as well. Theres lots of kids that were inspired from the england side last year, with obviously the world cup win, a fantastic ashes series. Formula one is back, and so is lewis hamilton. The season finally got under way at the red bull ring in austria, and hamilton began his pursuit of a seventh world title by going quickest in both practice sessions, ahead of his Mercedes Team mate valtteri bottas. Its four months since the original opening race weekend in australia was cancelled. Its derby day, but therell be no picnics, no smart dress, and no crowds at all on the epsom downs. In fact fencing has been put up to keep people away from the course. Itll be a very difference experience for racings superstar Frankie Dettori, who rides the favourite, english king. For us, it is the most important race, you know, in any sport youve got your signature event. You know, like, the Monaco Grand Prix for the formula 1, or the masters at golf, the super bowl. So the epsom derby, for us, is everything. It is the race that if you want to be a jockey, you want to win. It means a lot. It will be different with no crowd, but the excitement and the task of winning the derby, i think it will be as good as any other years. When former Scottish Rugby international doddie weir was diagnosed with Motor Neurone Disease three and half years ago, he didnt think he would live to see his 50th birthday. Yet today he reaches the big 50, and im delighted to say ill be speaking to him live at 9 30am. First, though, we have messages from friends from across the sporting world actually, doddie, if you are watching, happy birthday but look away now so we dont spoil your surprise for later on. For everyone else, heres a look. I hope you are well, just wish you many happy returns on your 50th birthday, i hope you have a fantastic day with the family. And it is with his family, his wife and sons, that doddie weir will spend his 50th birthday today, on the farm, in the countryside that he believes gave him the strength and the legs that won him 61 caps for scotland. The kids and the wife have been superb, because they are doing things to me that maybe not normal families need to do. I am here to try to fight it and try to find a cure. Fighting, ithink, goes back to the rugby days. And the man who knows this best is his former teammate and current scotland coach. He has got that competitiveness to fight anything ahead of him. And he says it is the rugby that has given him the fight. He is a very funny quy him the fight. He is a very funny guy, but he would love to run over the top of you. The one disappointment during this period is we we re disappointment during this period is we were going to celebrate this in cape town, we were due to be playing south africa on the same day as his birthday in cape town, and he was looking forward to that. Happy birthday, big guy you are looking 30 rather than 50. Thank you so much for fighting for a cure, so that the people after you dont have to go through the same struggle that you face. We really appreciate and respect you for all that you do. Across the sporting world, his inspiration goes far beyond just the by inspiration goes far beyond just the rugby field. Hey, doddie. Ijust wa nt to rugby field. Hey, doddie. Ijust want to wish you a very happy big 50th birthday. I know it is a bit of a tough one because the pubs arent open. Ijust a tough one because the pubs arent open. I just want you to a tough one because the pubs arent open. Ijust want you to know a tough one because the pubs arent open. I just want you to know that a tough one because the pubs arent open. Ijust want you to know that i have put it on ice until we can she is to it. This is chris hoy, in case you dont recognise me.

It was at Sports Personality last year that he won the helen dottie award for Outstanding Achievement in the face of adversity. I have always known that you are an outstanding rugby player but in the last year or two you have shown what an outstanding human being you are as well. Youre somebody we all look up to. You are a real inspiration to us all. And if you knew how many takes it took me to do this video for you, then that will give you a little laugh. It has certainly given me a little laugh, i know. Hope you have a new tartan for this very special occasion. Thank you for everything that you do and everything that you stand for and the person you are. So proud of you. Enjoy the celebrations. And rocking the beach for those celebrations, doddies favourite band. They are a national treasure, a tartan treasure, and a complete inspiration. Not too shabby, i look forward to number eight. Cheers hgppy forward to number eight. Cheers happy 50th slainte while the final hosting this breakfast surprise come from the two other sporting legends known the same team as doddie, fighting motor neuron disease. Rob burrow and stephen darby, who found strength together in lockdown. Happy birthday, doddie have a great day, mate hey, doddie. Happy 50th birthday, mate have a great day and ill have three beers for you tonight all the best so, have a great birthday, doddie, in your happy place down on the farm. Wouldnt mind tackling one of these and wrestling it to the ground. Im scared of getting too close to them now, because my balance is not quite the same. Verities, that little surprise for doddie. Im delighted to say he will be joining us live just after 930 a. M. That is some guest list, if you like, for your virtual 50th birthday party, isnt it . That is a bit special.

So whats that all about then . Ok, so welcome to my smart garden. This is actually called click grow. Good name seriously . Brilliant. Yep, absolutely. Now, this is actually a spot of verticalfarming. Although ive been setting it up outside it will live indoors, and the device provides exactly the right amount of light and water that the plants need. Plus the plants all come like this in little sachets where you have the seed for whatever plants you want, but also what the Company Calls smart soil, which means thatjust the right amount of nutrients should be within each pod so there should be no problem in creating perfect crops. Now, this device has been around for a little while, but what is new is that it now syncs your smart phone, plus this should be just the right amount of these products that one person needs to not have to go to the supermarket. What are you planting then, at the moment . Well, ive got some lettuce, ive got some basil, and ive got some tomato growing. So when all this is over i can make you a salad. Laughter. Theres an offer. All right, well, you carry on sowing and ill see you in a few minutes. The influence of facebook in elections has become a huge topic. The world is still debating to what extent it was responsible for President Trumps victory back in 2016. As the 2020 us elections approach the discussion over the influence of social networks is once again on the agenda. Joe biden, the nominee for the democrats, has been warning that not enough has been done to protect the integrity of elections. But while the world has been talking about facebook and twitter, another social network has been on the rise tiktok. Just a few years old, its already been downloaded more than two billion times. Its an alluring mix of funny videos and the latest dance moves have been a particular hit with younger users. But with great power comes great responsibility. Tiktoks huge user base could mean that it has a huge influence. And as James Clayton has been finding out, it is now being used as a political platform. And just like facebook and twitter before it, a dark side is emerging. Tiktok is a platform where you have fun and be creative. Its whole philosophy is based around music, its not supposed to be a political platform. It was not supposed to be any platform other than music. I mean, thats how it started. Tiktok banned political ads last year, but its content is increasingly political, blurring the lines between comedy, entertainment, and politics. Tiktok uses laid claim to sabotaging Donald Trumps tulsa rally, reserving seeds in droves they would never use. Now people have started sitting up and taking notice of the platforms political power. The big question now isjust how influential can these videos be . And are they the future of political advertising . Tiktok users are young. Tiktok is easy to use and fun, giving users creative tools to make imaginative content. And exactly the same tools have been applied to political videos. Theres a green screen option so you can be your own presenter, pointing different facts and figures on the screen. The other thing you can do on tiktok is sing along with your mates, by duetting with them by splitting the screen. But thats big on political tiktok too. You can use it to react to other peoples political comments not always in a good way. Sabrina haake ran to be northwest indianas democratic candidate. She didnt have much a social media following anywhere until she posted this video on tiktok. Pop music. You know im your type, right. The video has had more than 300,000 likes. Thats the kind of engagement you might expect of a president ial candidate. What worked for you in terms of getting likes . Well, it was the music. You know im your type. Tiktoks a perfect venue for people who want to get across their message in very simple terms. Because theres not a you know, its sort of the two second sound bite platform right which is kind of everything that i am running against but it also works because it gets people to look into your platform, and read it more closely. Despite this tiktok popularity, Sabrina Haake didnt win, not even close. Evidence perhaps that popularity on tiktok doesnt necessarily translate into votes at the ballot box. But tiktok wasnt designed to be political. Its blend of short videos and young users makes it particularly vulnerable to fake news and extremist material. During the george floyd protests, a man linking himself to an extremist libertarian militia, call the boogaloo boys, allegedly shot and killed a federal security officer, injuring his colleague, whos been charged with first degree murder. The movement that he belonged to aims to prepare for an Armed Struggle against the state. Boogaloo boys often wear colourful hawaiian shirts, and are almost always heavily armed. Tiktok has tried to purge boogaloo videos by getting rid of the boogaloo hashtag. But were able to find many gun videos using a different boogaloo hashtag to get round the ban. The thing that is interesting about them is that it is like the wild west. The president of media matters first spotted a rise in this extremist material a few months ago. They were getting around it in two meaningful ways. One was that their identifier was not picking up the gun somehow. And none of tiktoks countermeasures were searching for the right terms for the boogaloos, so even though it was against their rules it was just filled with boogaloo stuff. And so it was pointed out to them and they took it down. So a perfect example of the wild west, right. No rules. Ok, they put in place a rule, they updated it. After we showed these videos to tiktok, they took them down. In a statement to the bbc, tiktok said these problems are by no means unique to tiktok. Facebook in particular has been criticised for its response to extremist material. How these companies engage with this issue is hugely important in a us election year. We have no idea at the moment what kind of impact tiktok could have on elections or any other kind of political event in the coming years. Its such a huge app in terms of user base, but theres no transparency over how it provides information to people at the moment. So we really need some more clarity both from the app and from people who are using it, on what it might do in terms of political campaigning this year. With all of the press coverage that tiktok has received, its easy to forget just how young tiktok actually is just three years old. And were still, perhaps even tiktok is still, getting to grips with the huge amount of power the platform now wields. Many more of us have been working from home during the pandemic and if, like me, youre starting to feel a spot of zoom fatigue, then how about some new ways of doing meetings . Well, chris fox has been taking a look at what can be done in Virtual Reality. At the start of this week, i really did think whos going to put on a Virtual Reality headset to do work or video calling . Why wouldnt you just do it on your computer like everybody else . But, i have to say, some of the apps in development have really surprised me. This is spatial, a meeting space designed to bring together people with vr headsets and those without. Those without a headset can drop in using their computer and webcam. So i can see zoe up on a huge video wall. And those of us with a headset are represented by these 3d avatars. All i had to do was upload a photo or take a picture using my webcam and it turned that into a 3d avatar. It applied my skin colour to the arms and look how accurately it modelled my fringe from a 2d webcam image. And, just forfun, i tried making an avatar using a picture of a dog and i had to see this so you have to see it too. Laughter. Now were all in the meeting room together we can share files and photos, even 3d objects like this rendering of mars. This is in many waysjust like a video just like a video call, but i cant stress to you enough how different it feels. And spacial, unlike a video call, really feels like the people are there in the room with you. And if you go up to them too close it feels uncomfortable and weird, especially if you go really close because you can, at the moment, look through their head and see their teeth and eyeballs, which is a little bit spooky. And heres how the setup looks for zoe who isjoining usjust like a video call on her laptop. She gets an overview of the room and she can see our 3d avatars moving around in front of that video wall. It was certainly a more personal and sometimes too intimate experience. And that feeling of really being in the same room as someone when youre in vr makes it very compelling. Brilliant. That was chris fox. And thats it for the shortcut of click, from me on the sofa, and lara with her tomatoes. Im just syncing my plants to the app laughter. Very 2020. Listen, the full version available right now for you on iplayer. Please, do check it out. Thanks for watching and well see you soon. Bye bye. Good morning welcome to breakfast with Naga Munchetty and Charlie Stayt. Our headlines today. England eases lockdown in whats being described as the biggest step yet on the road to recovery. Lockdown only succeeded in controlling the virus because everyone worked together. And we will only succeed in reopening if everyone works together again. Pubs, restaurants, cinemas and hairdressers can all reopen with social distancing measures in place. Good morning. Its derby day, but not as we know it. The usual carnival of colour will be missing and none of the 100,000 strong crowd across the epsom downs, but the race goes ahead and well be speaking to one of the favourite jockeys later. We have got low pressure sweeping in this weekend bringing a lot of cloud, outbreaks of rain and the most notable feature will be the wind, unusually windy forjuly. Deals across many parts as we head through the course of sunday. Join me later i have the weather details for you. Its saturdayjuly the 4th. Our top story. The largest easing of coronavirus restrictions so far has come into effect in england. Some hairdressers welcomed back customers at midnight, while pubs, restaurants and cinemas are allowed to re open this morning. 544 new coronavirus cases were announced yesterday, the lowest daily figure since the 17 march, and 137 further deaths were confirmed, taking the uk total past 44,000. So the Prime Minister has warned people to act responsibly even though lockdown rules have been eased. Our reporter danjohnson joins us now from a pub in west london. Good morning. This is a major shift today in terms of how communities will look but all those concerns and worries about pandemic that are still with us remain . Good morning. Yes indeed. The pubs are really important parts of life in many communities, away to bring people together to some degree, but this one has not opened this morning and i think the reality will be that many do not even possibly reopen today or the next few days i think this will be a very gradual step because it does come with risk as has been acknowledged by the politicians and medical experts and even those pubs that reopen, things will feel quite different. You will not be able to go straight up and order a pint, its more like booking a table or preserving in advance and then being served at the table, possibly ordering through an app, there will not be live music, background music will be kept low so you do not have to shout, part of trying to restrict the spread of the virus within the pub. They will be tracking who has been on so if there is an out outbreak linked to the barbican get in touch and let people know. Big changes, big adaptations, social distancing down to one metre plus in england, also being considered in scotland, whether they can move away from two metres, so there are some serious considerations with the sand organisations like the Police Warning that people need to apply some real common sense because the dont want a repeat of some of the scenes from last weekend on some of the south coast beaches where there we re the south coast beaches where there were hundreds of people packed together and social distancing seemed to breakdown. If youre sat at home wondering who is so desperate to get back to the pub, have a look at Prince William, duke of cambridge, one of the first to get into his locals in norfolk, he had a pint of cider. How many more people will follow him today, we will have to wait and see. Thank you very much. Lets speak now to can speak to our Political Correspondent jonathan blake. How much of a gamble is this for the Prime Minister . Some changes have come through when it comes to the rules as well . Thats right. And the big change from today as well as the pubs, bars and from today as well as the pubs, bars a nd restau ra nts from today as well as the pubs, bars and restaurants and hair salons and other venues opening as you have heard is that the government has shifted its approach from legislation which creates laws that pupils have to follow in relation to the coronavirus people have to follow. Two guidance. Rules in place that people should follow and the government is hoping interesting we follow but will not necessarily result in police action. The guidances in england that you should have no more than six people meeting outside from any number of any different households and no more than to match household groups meeting indoors. But that is guidance only. And the only real is that groups of 30 or more cannot gather indoors or outdoors and that is when we may see police getting involved. I huge amount of trust from the government to the public earand from the government to the public ear and the government is hoping people act responsibly as the Prime Minister stressed at the downing street press conference last night. All businesses and workers have put ina heroic all businesses and workers have put in a heroic of effort to prepare venues in a heroic of effort to prepare venues for this reopening, to work out a way to trade that keeps their customers safe. But the success of these businesses, the livelihoods of those who rely on them, ultimately the Economic Health of the whole country, is dependent on every single one of us acting responsibly. And we have seen the two sides of the government messages this morning from the chancellor, rishi sunak in interview with the times saying we all need to relearn how to go out and enjoy ourselves and spend money again, eat out to help out he has put it to help the economic recovery and the Health Secretary matt hancock writing in the daily mail to say that if people break the rules they could find themselves locked up. Two different messages but the government very up. Two different messages but the government very much taking a step into the unknown with this big relaxation of the restrictions. Thanks for explaining that. So as weve been hearing, some hairdressers in england have been open since midnight. Adam mcclean has been to visit a salon, in lancashire, which welcomed its first customers since march. More than three months and around five centimetres of average hair growth later, some could not wait a moment later. Scissors at the ready as the clock struck 12, it was time for a cut and colour. I think its one of the first times i have got properly dressed and ready to come out the house and put some shoes on because i have had flip flops on for 16 weeks and slippers. Even that was really nice, a couple of hours before, getting ready to come. My hair has grown really well. But it hasjust been four months and desperate times to get back. These customers in lancashire were first to book their midnight appointments, while pubs had to wait until this morning to pool theirfirst pint, some hairdressers and barbers in england worked through the night. It feels lovely. It feels really good to be back. We left on such a low. It was awful. We were worried for the health of our staff, we were worried for the health or ourselves and families. We were worried for the business. It was really sad closing the doors, but we did it and 14 weeks later we are back and we are ready. I mean, i am not going to lie, i have actually enjoyed my time at home, especially with all the fantastic weather we have had. But it is more than just about doing hairfor me, it is a community that we are building here. Some of our clients, i know some of my clients i have been doing their hair for 25 years. Many of us have been doing our best to keep our own hair in check but some things are just best left to professionals. Now with visors and social distancing with fewer customers at any one time. The guidelines that we have received from the governing body, the hairdresser governing body, and the government are that we only actually need to wear this face visor so im guessing thats probably what we might do Going Forward, i can now see doing claires hair here that wearing a mask and a visor probably isnt going to work out because i am steaming up a bit but anyway. Doesnt matter, it is all good fun, we will crack on and we will get the job done and we will do what we need to do. Many salons are offering longer Opening Hours with more appointments to clear the three month backlog. With fresh haircuts no longer a distant memory after perhaps the strangest friday night out for some. Not everywhere in the uk is enjoying a sense of freedom today however. New local lockdown rules come into force in leicester today, after a spike in coronavirus cases. It means businesses in the city wont be re opening, and a ban on social gatherings and overnight stays is included in the new legislation, with fines for those flouting the law. Our reporter geeta pendse is in leicester now. Take us through what the situation is going into this weekend in leicester. Its really difficult here, so many people and businesses that were looking forward to reopening and that just that were looking forward to reopening and thatjust wont happen. But it is for a reason, to drive down the infection rate here and so there are a number of measures in place to try and maintain the restrictions. Leicestershi re maintain the restrictions. Leicestershire police say they have more officers on duty than they would typical new years eve and British Transport Police say they will have a much higher presence at leicester train station. And number of pubs and venues just outside the restriction zone have decided not to reopen and those that are reopening that are slightly further afield say they will be asking for id to check where people are from. But clearly it is really frustrating for those who are living within this localised lockdown but the hope is that there will be able to move forward if they stick with these new rules. Thank you very much. Seven Police Officers have been injured after they attempted to break up an Illegal Party in west london. Videos posted on social media show dozens of metropolitan Police Officers retreating as missiles were thrown at them by party goers in white city. So far, no arrests have been made. In the United States donald trump has kicked off celebrations for the fourth of july weekend by holding an event at Mount Rushmore. There was little evidence pf social distancing among the crowd at the famous monument in south dakota with few people wearing Face Coverings. The president has faced criticism as a number of states across the country have seen large spikes in new coronavirus infections. Dozens of landmarks across the uk will be lit up in blue this evening, to mark tomorrows 72nd anniversary of the founding of the nhs. People are being encouraged to observe a minutes silence and light a candle in remembrance of those who have died during the pandemic. A nationwide round of applause is set to take place tomorrow evening at five oclock to thank the Health Service and its key workers. Heres stav with a look at this mornings weather. It has been really blustery of late. Will that continue . It is, yes, we have got another area of low pressure moving in this weekend. Wet and windy last weekend if you remember, we have a deeper area moving and especially on sunday. Largely cloudy skies like best weather watcher photo shows. Pretty much how it will be for most of us. The sunshine will be limited and the wind will be a feature because of this area of low pressure. At the moment we have this area of moist humid south westerly wind across the uk. Fairly breezy across the south but nothing much on the wind today. We will see some low cloud, spots of drizzle but east of high ground, eastern scotland, north east england should see brightness, pretty warm, may mid 20s when the sunshine comes out. For most high teens, low 20s across the south. The wind picks up tonight and this evening, gale force by the end of the night, some rain, across the board. A cold front across the board. A cold front across england and wales. Initially warm and muggy but fresher by dawn. This cold front sweeps across the country introducing some cooler air, low pressure to the north, deep for the time of year, isobars on the chart, gale force wind. Very blustery day on sunday. Early rain clears from the south east and it will be bright. Plenty of sunshine in the south, lots of showers for scotland, Northern Ireland, Northern England, the wind feature. Gusting 4060 in england, the wind feature. Gusting 40 60 in parts of scotland and Northern Ireland, Northern England. Very windy for the time of year, could lead to destruction. A little fresher, losing humidity tomorrow so mid teen is in the north, high teens further south. That is your weather. So pubs, restaurants and hairdressers will re open in england today, bringing some normality back to people, and helping businesses get back on their feet. But the pandmic is not over so questions remain, is this is really the right time to ease restrictions . Were joined now by the chief executive for uk hospitality, kate nicholls, along with robert west, whos a professor of Health Psychology at University College london. Very good morning to both. I wonder ifi very good morning to both. I wonder if i can start with you first. It is a very significant day for the economy. For those businesses in hospitality and that is a very important issue in itself. But he will be aware there are people who will be aware there are people who will be aware there are people who will be thinking busy pubs and restau ra nts, will be thinking busy pubs and restaurants, it is good for earning money but there are questions around how it well, how they will go about it has businesses and the safety requirements. How confident are you they will do whats required . Its very significant, we have about half of our businesses in hospitality reopening today. Crucially that means1 million reopening today. Crucially that means 1 Million People reopening today. Crucially that means1 Million People who havejobs secured under coming back to work and as an industry we have been working since the Prime Minister set out his road map on 11 may, working on best practice in industry protocols to make sure that can happen safely. We are confident people have taken the steps needed, done this incessant sand we can reopen safely to give a warm welcome back to the British Public done the risk assessment. First and foremost it is seated service only, endorse, enhanced hygiene and sanitation and we have track and trace in place to help the nhs minimise and manage the infection risks that arise on reopening the economy. Professor robert, kate has made it clear the industry is taking it seriously because it needs to. It needs to get back to work and get people back working as well. However, part of yourjob as you are on the sage subcommittee which looks at behaviour of influenza and how people adhere to intervention by government and medical bodies. I suppose what you will bring to this conversation is how people will react and what they need to be mindful of. The first thing to rememberof mindful of. The first thing to remember of course is that the virus still is with us. Were looking at around 20,000 new infections are weak at around 1000 deaths a week. And the rates are not coming down very fa st and the rates are not coming down very fast so people have to tremendously cautious. I also want to say that i think the Hospitality Industry is doing everything it can. I have been very, very impressed at how seriously they have been taking this for the most part. What we know about Human Behaviour of course and you dont have to be a psychologist to know this, is that its very variable. So we have seen really huge efforts being made by people to stick to the rules so far and mostly they have been and mostly they still are and mostly they will. The problem is that as we open up these businesses, you will get more contact. Theres no getting away from that. And that means you will get more infections and unfortunately it means youll get more deaths and this is the problem that the government and society as a whole has to deal with. The key here i think for people to know that the responsibility is falling on them a lot more than it was, is to follow what you might call the covid 19 code. In traffic which is inherently a dave dangerous situation, you have the highway code. Its complex but people do it so we are able to minimise the numberof people do it so we are able to minimise the number of deaths. I think were in that sort of situation. The covid 19 code is what we now need to be thinking of in order to protect yourself and community. The department of health and social care has given us a statement and said we have been clear we will continue to be guided by the latest scientific advice. Now you as well as our viewers will be very you as well as our viewers will be very aware you as well as our viewers will be very aware of that phrase we have heard. It has also said effective local management of any outbreak is the first line of protection against a second wave. Thats also the conversation now. Test and trace. Is it effective enough when it comes to preventing a second wave or at least monitoring how people are behaving under these restrictions . The track and trace system was very slow to get under way and got off to a. Because unfortunately the government decided to do it in a way incident focusing on the expertise of someone in the local areas, the local Public Health departments they decided to do it centrally which is not been tremendously successful so far. So theres a long way to go before we have a really effective track and trace system but youre absolutely right, it is critical because as i said earlier, there will be infections, there will be outbreaks and we need to stamp on them as quickly as possible. Thats the key. What that means is bearing in mind of course on what that means is bearing in mind of course on average what that means is bearing in mind of course on average you will be about five days with an infection before you face symptoms, and even then the symptoms if you show them may often be mild. So people need to be incredibly, really incredibly vigilant about whether they might have symptoms and super responsible. Ifi have symptoms and super responsible. If i may say, more responsible than borisjohnson has if i may say, more responsible than Boris Johnson has been if i may say, more responsible than borisjohnson has been when he was photographed right next to a pub owner having a pint of beer. Anyway, super responsible in seeing if i think i will might even possibly be infected i need to stay away and ta ke infected i need to stay away and take the necessary measures and contact my local tracer. Very important what youre saying, i am mindful and it was in your first answer, the reality is that people dont necessarily know if they have coronavirus. There is a period of time. So as we are looking today, kate we will be back with you in a second, as we are looking at the practicality of workplaces, we are ata practicality of workplaces, we are at a hairdressing salon this morning. A person walks into a relatively small environment and unwittingly they go in, might fill in the questionnaire saying nothing wrong with me, i am fine. What is the risk even if they are closely adhering to, the establishment, to all the rules they need to. What is the risk if one person goes, to the rest of those people . The risk can be minimised by adhering to all the rules that you are talking about and also what the hairdressers and so on are doing with their environments. But it is not zero. I would not like to put a number on it, the individual risk to that person or that person conveying the virus is very low like the risk of an individual risk in road Traffic Accident at any one time but if you aggregate that across the country, obviously there is a risk. I think the key here is do everything that you possibly can to minimise the risk as we do in the road situation and if you find yourself in a situation where the risk is elevated for whatever reason either because of the environment, for example if you go into a pub and theres more people than you feel safe, leave and go and do everything you can to minimise the risk. Then the track entry system so that if a person does contract a virus, we can stamp out any outbreaks as quickly as possible. Kate, just looking at the guidance and what is now law and whats guidance, and strongly urged measures, there does not appear to be any legal requirement to provide names and Contact Details to venue owners when they visit. That was one of the things that pubs and restau ra nts of the things that pubs and restaurants would of the things that pubs and restau ra nts would ta ke of the things that pubs and restaurants would take those details but if there is no obligation its kind of hamper is the idea of the test and trace system be put into action. Whats the advice being given to industry participants, employers when it comes to dealing with customers . Its in our interest to make sure we support and provide as much interest information as we can to back up the track entry system. Its vital to keeping the industry open, the economy, social lives open, so we will be doing our utmost to collect as much information as we can and as ask customers to provide us with the names and details of the League Member in the group. If customers refuse that is their choice and thats where the voluntary element comes in but we will be doing our utmost to make sure we capture it either through apps or reservations or on the door when they turn up and look for a seat. As i say, most of hospitality is moving to a pre booked situation. Making reservations. All seated, very easy to be able to get that information are provided and its notjust about customers but staff, and having their information and also the contractors and people who visit. We are confident we can provide a great deal of information to support the government track and trace regime. Thank you both. Very interesting. Alison freemanjoins us now from one campsite in cumbria, preparing to welcome guests. Were talking this morning about how businesses are adapting as people com pletely businesses are adapting as people completely understandably go yes, we can go to a place like that. Yes and thatis can go to a place like that. Yes and that is reflected by the fact you can see behind me the campers who got here at 6am because they are so desperate to start their holiday and who can blame them when you see a view like this . Its a big day for campsites because they have lost a huge chunk of their seasonal earnings which would keep them going through the winter months. Theres a buzz. People are excited but cautious so lets take a look at how preparations were carried out yesterday. Getting ready to reopen at last. Yesterday in the lake district, to final preparations were taking place at Hospitality Businesses who today will be welcoming back visitors desperate to start their first holiday after lockdown. So, in our bar we have a one way system. This is the entrance and this is the exit. Tables have been socially distanced so they are at least a metre apart. At the quiet site, precautions have been put in place to protect campers. But thats not all that is required to keep them safe. A lot of the way we will operate is using the intelligence of our customers. They are going to be have to be responsible for the way, for their own safety. We should put everything into place for them so hopefully they will be able to do that. But the other thing that were going to do is start on a very low occupancy. We are starting with 30 really of what we would normally take. This row of four tables, we have had one removed and each table of four there is a seat removed from each one to allow a safe area for server to put their tray. Nearby, the final touches were being put to the tea room to comply with the rules the number of people it can serve has dropped by 30 . Its conflicted because we are a Hospitality Business and we have been talking about being inhospitable all week, having to take peoples details at the door. Bookings for more than six people. We can say you can come, but you will be on separate tables. And we have had tried to do that without putting screens up and tape and stickers everywhere so it will be a lovely experience for people. Visitors have been encouraged to stay away from the lakes until now, but the Hospitality Industry here has adapted as best it can. Its gonna be tricky. But we are a vibrant industry, we are very innovative i think, got lots of people and lots of initiative so its an exciting time to move forward now and were looking forward to it. At debbies campsite on the other side of the lake they have done everything they can to get up and running. Again, reduced bookings are key to ensuring social distancing, with extra cleaning schedules introduced. I think businesses are really struggling at the moment and this is welcome for us. If people are prepared to take the risk to come on holiday then we are more than willing to do our part. We want to welcome back visitors like we do every year in a safe environment. We can chat to some of the visitors who came very early. What brought you here . Quinta come back out after three months of lockdown, along three months of lockdown, along three months of lockdown, along three months and we want to make the most of the summer. Really pleased they have opened back up and see how it goes. This place has a special place in your heart, doesnt it . It goes. This place has a special place in your heart, doesnt mm in we were kids so lots of good memories here and we have searched coming with our kids. So just a really good place. The staff are very nice and friendly so it is good. Emma you were not put off by the rain . Now, could not wait to come, doesnt matter if it is raining or sunny we will come, love it. One track enjoy your weekend. Over here i have jim walker from cumbria tourism. What are businesses saying to you about opening today . Businesses have been waiting one of three days without trading, across the whole of the uk is in crisis or to get some business is important. We need to see how it goes, the businesses have been working hard to prepare, lots of things in place, look to government guidance but were confident we can be careful and wisely do the reopening which will hopefully take off and welcome customers back to enjoy this beautiful landscape. Thanks very much. Jen will tour the businesses to find out how things are going today. Debbie is the owner of the campsite. You have put a lot of precautions in place. Are you confident things will be safe . think so. Staff are operating enhanced cleaning regimes, hand sanitiser for everyone, they need to ta ke sanitiser for everyone, they need to take responsible to for themselves but we put everything in place for them. So we should be good to go. But we put everything in place for them. So we should be good to gom has been a long few months for you. Are you keen to get the money rolling in a game . Think it is time for all businesses across the lakes. Its definitely time. We have taken quite a hit. We opened for a week in march and that was nothing, lockdown, people are desperate to come back, get out of the house, enjoy the outdoors and make the most of it. Thank you so much in gridlock with the rest of the season. People clearly desperate to get back and like we have said all morning, with that, who can blame them . Pu bs, cafes a nd restau ra nts might be allowed to open in england from today, but there are different rules in wales. Our correspondent tomos morgan is in chepstow to tell us more. Gorgeous setting. Just over the border in wales. Yes, very different. At the moment, places like this one will only be able to open for outdoor use on the 13th of july. But just over the open for outdoor use on the 13th of july. Butjust over the river here, just over the bridge there, you cross straight into england. A lot of the people that live along the England Wales border, they live their lives in both countries. The school may be on one side, they may live it on the other, work on the other, shops, pubs, restaurants may be on the other side of the border. You have a village in wales where the border runs through the village and on one side you have a pub, on the other you have another, one will be able to opal and one wont be. The rules in wales at the moment until wales they have to stay local. Within a five mile radius of your home. As i mentioned, People Living on this border, the border is within five miles, so they can go and then they can follow the rules in england. The Welsh Government says, of course, everybody should avoid unnecessary travel and every step that they make on the introduction of rules in wales is based on scientific advice. The decision of pubs and restaurants to only open outdoor on the 13th, was met by criticism from the industry. Many pubs in wales say they will only open around two of their premises as they dont have the facilities to do otherwise. Differences between wales and england when most things are, in the hospitality sector, reopening on one side of the border. On this site however, things remain closed. Thanks very much, see you later. So, pa rt thanks very much, see you later. So, part of our programme this morning, we are balancing up, as a lot of people are, the benefits and joy of being able to do things against the ongoing risks of the virus. This is something that everyone is having to deal with, but there are moments in it which we can all enjoy. Some of them relating to going to the hairdressers in which you can do for the first time today and may be people who do or do not need haircuts. Maybe you mist this experience. This is how chris has been coping with luscious locks, shall we say. He is going to be getting his hair cut live on this programme. Did they ask you if you do . No. Why would they . No reason. Is he really going to have his hair cut live . Weve got a yes . is he really going to have his hair cut live . Weve got a yes . I think the reason they asked chris to do it is because if they ask you, it would be too long. Lets go to mike, he has the sport. Im wondering what to do about my hair. Anyway, thats for another day. Its going to be a nerve jangling day for fans of the clubs, in the premier leagues relegation battle with norwich, bournemouth and watford all in action this afternoon. So, steady the nerves, our ship of calm. Dan walker is upstairs to tell us, whats ahead on football focus morning whats ahead on football focus mike. Yeah, were concentrating morning mike. Yeah, were looking at concentrating on, i suppose both ends of the premier league. Those with games at the bottom, you have brighton, norwich, the bottom three is now aston villa, bournemouth and norwich, all three clubs are in trouble and the club just above that, watford, west ham, brighton, they are looking below them as well. We also have a piece on the champions, we talked last week about liverpool waiting 30 years to win the top division. He has been speaking to alex scott about all sorts of things and alex gave him the opportunity to choose the main subject. Do we start with the game on thursday ordered you want to start all about being premier League Champions . I want to start with the second option. So, its been a week. Youre sitting there, youre a premier league champion. Can you describe how that feels . premier league champion. Can you describe how that feels . I mean, i know it feels good because i know it is meant to feel amazing, but, at the minute, it hasnt really sunk in. Understandably, deciding to talk about winning the title rather than the game on thursday they were talking about, that was liverpool being beaten by Manchester City it when the title last season. They we re when the title last season. They were already looking forward to sorting things out next season. Chelsea, they only lost their first game since resumption this week. Hes been taking some questions from young fans of chelsea. Mike, i know young fans of chelsea. Mike, i know you know eddie from the time he was on loan at leeds, he was back at arsenal and hes been speaking to the guys at match of the day. High rated young player. Clem has been to bre ntford rated young player. Clem has been to brentford this week, since we resumed in their championship, bre ntford resumed in their championship, brentford have won three championships, conceded no goals, third in the championship, playing wigan this weekend, lots of people are concerned about the future wigan, the club are in administration and there is rumours about what is happening behind the scenes. Such a well run club in the past, so we will be taking a look at that today as well. We will look at the european leagues and come on Independence Day, slightly tenuous link, but we will look back at some of the great goals from the womens world cup usa team. One further thing to menu, we have alex scott and Michael Richards on the programme. Are you a collector of sporting programmes . Im sure in a locker somewhere a cupboard at your house. In the loft, yes, some of leeds, my team, but my nannies live in birmingham so we went to go and see her, i doubt would take me to one of the clubs, czechoslovakia one, england won three nil. Wow, lots of people have collections like that. We have a lovely piece today, speak to a couple of scottish fans who have taken a collection of memorabilia and sporting programmes to an entirely new level, so even you will be put in the shade. All of that coming up from midday today on football focus. When you think of derby day, you imagine a sea of colour, with double decker buses lining the rails, and more than 100,000 people spread across the epsom downs. Of course this time there will be none of that, so itll be a very different experience for the jockeys. In a moment well be talking to oison murphy, whos riding the second favourite kameko this afternoon first, heres one of his fans, the two time derby winner Frankie Dettori, whos aboard the favourite english king. Its quite weird that you probably win some i really like oisin, he is very funny. We have a lot of laughs together. When we get out there on saturday, we will both try to win. It is not just saturday, we will both try to win. It is notjust me and him it is the other jockeys in the it is notjust me and him it is the otherjockeys in the race. Hes very professional, has a good horse if i had to name my biggest danger, it would be him. Im sure hes going to keep an eye on me and i will keep an eye on him. May the best horse win. Battle ahead. Im joined now by oisin from his home in berkshire. You are a fan of frankie, so much so that you named your dog after him . had a dog called frankie as a child and funnily enough, he is to go looking for female dogs all the time. He was quite naughty, so, yeah, that was good fun. Your mac enough talk chat then, thanks for that. A month ago, you joined us. You won the first of the triple crowns. Hes a wonderful horse, he finished his year at last year on a high when he won in group one and obviously, the 2000 guineas was a huge achievement. Personally for me and his trainer, but also fit its connections, it was a massive day. At the moment, he is a second favourite for todays rays, but its a new challenge, its a mile and a half. Guineas is only a mile, so we are a little bit worried about the distance. Derby is the most special. What would it repeat victory in this mean . Epsom is a very undulating course. It is not flat at any point during the race. This race is the history of our breed, its a stallion making race, its very important and obviously, i am trying to ignore all that pressure but, i can tell you, its incredibly significant. Yes, just looking at pictures of the crowds there, if any sporting event will miss the cloud, it is this, because of the spectacle of the crowds disappearing over the downs, so many of them with a picnic. How strange will it be . Incredibly different. It will be much easier to keep our horses calm and cool and from my point of view, thats great. But you miss the atmosphere when you win on a major race, its nice to have applause and that buzz, if i can clinch the derby today, it will mean the world to me. And you are chasing history, as it is in 50 years since a jockey lasted the triple crown, if you want today would be two thirds of the way there. I havent allowed that to cross my mind. Lets notjust focus on that, we obviously have the best three year old males running in the derby today, but the best three year olds phillies are running as well, so to championship races, ple nty as well, so to championship races, plenty to look forward to racing tv from 345 onwards today. So please tune in. Is looking up your horse kamiko. It means turtle injapanese, anything but slow. He clocked 45 mph. What is that like . You must be terrifying. Are you aware of your surroundings at that speed . Hes not a massive horse but the way he gets his head down and uses his stride, he is amazing not many horses can go that fast, and not many horses that go that fast can go a long way. Hes won the best mile race three year olds, hes very relaxed, so hopefully he will get the distance, but obviously we are not sure. Hes incredible. Tell us about your rivalry with frankie, great friends, you admire each other. A season when youll be conscious of during the race or do you just put him out of the mind and see where your horse can get to and if its good enough to be frankie, job done . If you think of a formula race, Frankie Dettori is in stall one and im in stall 11, so we are a little bit away from each other. There is ple nty of bit away from each other. There is plenty of horses in the race coming in with good profiles that can win as well, russian emperor for example. It is going to be very difficult to win. Frankie is my idol but when i step out onto the track today, that will be firmly in the back of my mind. Best of luck today, oisin. Thank you forjoining us. I hope we can bring you some look again. Safejourney to epsom. Best of luck today. Had quite a few people tweet me last time we had him on saying they didnt back it. Well, youve seen on breakfast this morning, if gambling is your thing, have a little flutter. Mike, youve got to be careful. Just because you think you bought look the first time. I usually have the curved stone tie, maybe it was a flash in the pan last time. So beware. In a moment we are going to be talking to a couple who are getting married today, so we are kind ofjoining their celebrations. But also, you have a celebration that we are kind of joining have a celebration that we are kind ofjoining in today from the world ofjoining in today from the world of sport, havent you . Absolutely. The rugby league legend, doddie weir. He was diagnosed with Motor Neurone Disease. Today, he turns 50, is joining neurone disease. Today, he turns 50, isjoining us after 930. Messages from across the sporting world wishing him a happy birthday. Looking forward to that, thanks mike. 60 minutes to nine, lets catch up with the weather. Thats quys catch up with the weather. Thats guys going to be typical for many of us today isnt it. Absolutely. Warm and muggy airof us today isnt it. Absolutely. Warm and muggy air of the atlantic. This isa and muggy air of the atlantic. This is a photo from bristol looking over the lovely green hills and trees there. It looks like this weekend is going to be pretty unusual, were going to be pretty unusual, were going to be pretty unusual, were going to see a deep area of low pressure m oves going to see a deep area of low pressure moves through tonight and into tomorrow, that will bring a swathe of gales across the British Isles so a very autumnal day as we head into tomorrow. Here today, west south westerly winds coming in off the atlantic, not much of a feature, breezy across southern areas. The cloud will always be thicker across western parts of scotland into Northern Ireland and also north west england, west wales, spots of light rain. Sheltered eastern areas, eastern high ground will see some brightness at times, forget the sunshine, could feel quite warm, perhaps mid 20s celsius, but it most, 1722 degrees. As we head into this evening and overnight, the winds pick up, low pressure sweeps in, heavy rain in the north and a band of rain sweeping across england and wales as well. Another muggy night but by the end of the night, fresher air moving in. Thats because this cold front will introduce fresh airfrom because this cold front will introduce fresh air from the west, north west. Look at the isobars in the charts. Very unusual to see this at this time of year. Very deep blow that will bring a swathe of gales which cause disruption. The early rain plays away from the south east tomorrow morning and then its bright, to marry and stay dry altogether across the south east but further north and west, lots of blustery showers, some of these heavy, scotland and Northern Ireland, Northern England and it is here i will see the strongest of their wins, 50 to 60 mph, here i will see the strongest of theirwins, 50 to 60 mph, 30 here i will see the strongest of their wins, 50 to 60 mph, 30 to 40 further south. Could lead to disruption, branches down perhaps. Temperatures fresher tomorrow, weve lost the humidity so low to mid teens, thats deep blow pushes off in scandinavia, High Pressure starts to build into the start of next week so it looks like things will gradually settle down. It will be quite cool though, cooler air mass coming in from the north west. We will see a few showers at time. No where near as many as what we will see on sunday. A blustery day, breezy day on monday, nowhere near as windy on sunday, lots of showers across eastern areas, take these down as the afternoon is a High Pressure starts to build in. Quite a bit of sunshine across southern and Western Areas. Temperatures range from 17 to 20 degrees. Moving through the week, High Pressure will bring dry weather further south and east you are, further low pressure systems tend to bring more cloud and rain at times. This with lockdown restrictions easing today in england, the British Medical Association has warned of a spike in alcohol related admissions to a e tonight, as people return to pubs for the first time in three months. Its urging people to drink responsibly. For more on this, we can speak to dr simon walsh, who is the bmas emergency medicine lead. Thank you for talking to us. What are your main concerns . Morning. Thanks for speaking to me. So, im an emergency medicine consultant and the bma represents all doctors across the uk. We are concerned about two things. One, obviously, the countdown to opening pubs and restau ra nts the countdown to opening pubs and restaurants on saturday, has in some ways led to a carnival atmosphere and we are concerned about the effects that might have on the demand on ambulance and Emergency Departments. Of course, the second concern is about the increased risk of transmission of covid 19 and a subsequent spike in the number of cases. Interestingly, much has been made about how the nhs is coping and how the nhs is going back, returning to normal practice. Different operations that are now being scheduled that were postponed before. How well geared is the nhs for this weekend . Before. How well geared is the nhs for this weekend . Obviously, before. How well geared is the nhs forthis weekend . Obviously, nobody wa nts forthis weekend . Obviously, nobody wants anybody to go out and get ill because of alcohol and ending up in hospital, but it happens. During the last few months, the closure of pubs and restaurants, Emergency Departments have seen a downturn in the number of people who attend due to intoxication or injuries caused by alcohol. That is important because, to be honest, we have had to restructure Emergency Departments and entire hospitals. In order to protect people from the spread of covid 19 within hospitals. That means that really, the capacity, the number of people that can safely be in an Emergency Department at any one time is probably in the region of half or less than half in many departments because of the way we have had to restructure waiting rooms and entire departments. We simply dont have the ability to cope with. Apologies to our viewers. Oh, doctor simon walsh. Please just finish your last sentence, we lost you there. The restructure is that weve had to put in place mean that we simply dont have a capacity that we used to have before the pandemic to look after the same number of people at one time and most departments. The number of patients we an app safely. Doctor simon walsh, apologies to our viewers and to you. Technical difficulties. He is the bmas emergency medicine laid. There we we re emergency medicine laid. There we were talking about how obviously, pubs in england are reopening today. Some of them have been open since 6am, havent they . In practice, they will be open throughout the day today. Our correspondentjohn maguire is on a bar that is a boat in bristol and will be back with him later seeing in practice the arrangements they are making around social distancing. Which of course, and amongst many other changes, that guidance has changed a day. Two metres is now down to one metre, of course, the way that that is being explained to people as one metre plus is the guidelines. More on that throughout the programme this morning. The message there from doctor simon walsh is, try to be sensible because the nhs is prepared, but obviously it does not wa nt to prepared, but obviously it does not want to be overwhelmed by any incidents related to pubs opening and people drinking responsibly. Thousands of couples have had to postpone their nuptials this year because of lockdown but from today, weddings it might not be the day many planned official guidance still says receptions shouldnt take place but thats not stopping our next guests. Fiona sharples and chris fisher are tying the knot today theyjoin us now from gloucestershire, along with their children, mallory and albert. Good morning to you all. Morning. How are you feeling this morning . I imagine its not quite the wedding morning you had imagined. Not quite how we imagined it, but were still going ahead. What is it going to look like this morning . What time is the wedding . Three oclock this afternoon. So, its just the wedding . Three oclock this afternoon. So, itsjust coming up to nine oclock, what preparations are you making, apart from obviously taking time out to not talk to us. So, my brother and sister in law are coming over in a little while to help get ready. I am kicking the boys out, they are going to play foot ball boys out, they are going to play football this morning. Great back his football training is finally back on. And apart from that, it will be mallory, myself and my sister in law getting ready. Will be mallory, myself and my sisterinlaw getting ready.

What is the job today . What is yourjob . I look after the rings and actually i cant do the register. Because you have to be eight to do the register and im only four. You have to be 18, dont you . Some technical stuff he is not able to do but he is the support. Where are the rings now . Do we know theyre where are the rings now . Do we know they re safe . Where are the rings now . Do we know theyre safe . My mum has one of my sister in law as the other. Theyre safe . My mum has one of my sisterinlaw as the other. It interesting to talk about your mum, fiona, an interesting situation you have with your mum and dad as to who can come to their wedding and how many guests you can have . Yes, we can only have 30 people and that includes all the church staff. But my parents are staying at home because they are shielding, so they wont actually be there today. But again, my sister in law is going to film it and send it across to them so they can be a part of it. Kinda bittersweet, because 4th ofjuly was a lwa ys bittersweet, because 4th ofjuly was always planned. Yes, we stopped planning after lockdown skews me, sorry. So yeah, we stopped planning after that. We just kind of embraced it there when we got the go ahead. Yes, she ran us up and said, do you fa ncy yes, she ran us up and said, do you fancy getting married on saturday . Who has upset mallory . She wants me to put some shoes on and i havent. How rude of you. Well, have a fabulous day, it might not be the one you imagined but it will be great, my advice is that its not about the wedding day, its about the marriage. Thank you so much. Thank you guys, so nice to see this morning. What a delight. And fiona will put the sandals on, mallory will put the sandals on, mallory will be laughing, albert will be delighted, he is 14 years too young to sign the register but he will be the best man. It is irritating when people dont put their shoes on. Yes. One of the more famous or infamous hairstyles of lockdown belongs to our very own chris mason. The bbc presenters barnet has been the centre of attention in recent weeks, even making it onto channel 4s googlebox. Today though hell bid farewell to his straggly mane, as weve managed to book him an appointment at an east london barbers. In the next half hour he finally get a trim, but before that, lets take a look at the reaction to chriss lockdown locks. Chris mason, even get a haircut. Not a minute too soon. Thank you very much. There are some images that dont go away, that will be one of them. We fired a Celebrity Stylist to give you some tips. Its got one. Chris you sound nervous. Are you nervous . Yes, petrified. I like the confidence he has departed her in the middle. i like the confidence he has departed her in the middle. I reckon im a week away. It looks great, chris. We need a countdown clock. 31 minutes and 48 seconds till it takes place. Now he has made the chart, why would you cut the hair . Its chriss all. Maybe you will call it off at the last minute. May be like when the Space Shuttle launches, at the moment we are expecting it, it wont happen. Its live, yeah, headlines are coming up. Good morning welcome to breakfast with Naga Munchetty and Charlie Stayt. Our headlines today. England eases lockdown in whats being described as the biggest step yet on the road to recovery. Lockdown only succeeded in controlling the virus because everyone worked together. And we will only succeed in reopening if everyone works together again. Pubs, restaurants, cinemas and hairdressers can all reopen with social distancing measures in place. We are live with staff preparing to reopen dorsey for the first time in more than three months. Three hours to go. This salon like so many others in england, back in business. Safety first, isnt it . But a lot of ivy safety first, isnt it . But a lot of joy here too. Howzat recreational cricket, can return in a weeks time. After a government u turn, the game is given the go ahead, they now say it can be made very safe. Good morning to you. We have low pressure sweeping in this weekend, it is going to bring a lot of cloud, outbreaks of rain and the most notable feature of the weather this weekend will be the wind. Unusually windy forjuly. We could see gales across many parts as we head through the course of sunday. Sojoin me later. I will have all the weather details for you. Its saturdayjuly the 4th. Our top story. The largest easing of coronavirus restrictions so far has come into effect in england. Some hairdressers welcomed back customers at midnight, while pubs, restaurants and cinemas are allowed to re open this morning. 544 new coronavirus cases were announced yesterday, the lowest daily figure since the 17 of march, and 137 further deaths were confirmed, taking the uk total past 44,000. So the Prime Minister has warned people to act responsibly even though lockdown rules have been eased. Our reporter danjohnson joins us now from a pub in west london. Going through those statistics, the reminder that government officials are very keen that people remember just as communities, towns and villages will possibly look and feel quite different . Yes and i think thatis quite different . Yes and i think that is why this will be cautious, gradual step. That is why this pub is not open this morning and i dont think in reality many will be. Maybe we will see more later today, some chains have said it will take a few days to getting reopen. Even then it will not be the pub experience as you knew it before. We are talking you knew it before. We are talking about reserving in advance, leaving Contact Details so the pub knows who has been in if there is an outbreak and they can make contact with people. Not going straight to the bar to order a pint, people. Not going straight to the barto ordera pint, perhaps people. Not going straight to the bar to order a pint, perhaps through a app or served at the table to keep distance and though social distances reduced, were talking about one metre. In scotland they are talking about whether they can safely reduce from two major social distancing rules. Big changes, a big moment, caution being urged by politicians and medical experts and the emergency services. They dont want people to be carried away so a difficult tone to be struck. We will have to see how much common sense is applied and how much people have the confidence to go out and get back into the pubs. And the cinemas, bars, restaurants, Hospitality Industry has taken such a massive hit over the last three months, thats why this movie is being made to try and reopen, but i think it will be a gradual step. Thank you very much. Lets speak now to can speak to our Political Correspondent jonathan blake. We have tried so hard on the programme and throughout the weeks to try and make clear what are the rules, what, and things have been changing. Soi rules, what, and things have been changing. So i suppose we also want to offer some clarity . Yes, as the uk and england, scotland, wales, Northern Ireland independently have taken Northern Ireland independently have ta ke n ste ps Northern Ireland independently have taken steps out of lockdown and the restrictions have been eased gradually, the rules have become a little less clea r cut gradually, the rules have become a little less clear cut and so now with the biggest step forward yet for england certainly as you have heard, pubs, bars, restaurants, galleries, museums, salons and more will be open from today. There are more rules for people to get their heads around but the biggest change is that the laws that were in place before, setting out very clearly what people could and could not do are not there any more. They have now lapsed and been replaced with guidance. As we have heard and a reminder this morning that you cannot meet any, in groups higher than six from any number of households outdoors or to household groupings indoors thats the guidance as of now. But only groups of 30 or more are actually illegal. The government hopes and takes it on trust that people will act responsibility and the Prime Minister urged people to do that last night. The virus is still with us and despite chemistry has showed that. If it starts running out of control again, this government will not hesitate in putting on the brakes and reimposing restrictions. This step being taken without, not without a good deal of nervousness from those in government. Who simply dont no what the impact of easing restrictions solicit central bm we have seen a two pronged approach from government ministers this morning. Rishi sunak urging people to eat out to help out in the Health Secretary matt hancock on the other hand warning people that they could find themselves locked up if the behave irresponsibility. Thank you very much. Not everywhere in england is enjoying a sense of freedom today however. New local lockdown rules come into force in leicester today, after a spike in coronavirus. It means businesses in the city wont be re opening, and a ban on social gatherings and overnight stays is included in the new legislation, with fines for those our reporter geeta pendse is in leicester now. Tells what the rules will mean in practice. Its a really different situation here in leicester. So many people looking forward to the easing of restrictions that just people looking forward to the easing of restrictions thatjust will not ta ke of restrictions thatjust will not take place but it is for a reason to drive down the infection rate here and so there are a lot of measures in place to try and ensure those rules here are abided to so let leicestershi re rules here are abided to so let Leicestershire Police say they have more officers on duty than they would typical new years eve. There would typical new years eve. There would be a greater policing presence at lesser train station. The number of local pubs just outside the restriction zone have decided not to reopen because of safety concerns and further afield in places like nottingham were told bars and pubs say they will be for id to check where people are coming from. Clearly there is a lot of frustration but there are hopes that if people stay at home, if they listen to the social distancing rules here, soon enough people in leicester will get to enjoy the freedoms being experienced elsewhere. Thank you very much. Seven Police Officers have been injured after they attempted to break up an Illegal Party in west london. Videos posted on social media show dozens of metropolitan Police Officers retreating as missiles were thrown at them by party goers in white city. So far, no arrests have been made. In the United States donald trump has kicked off celebrations for the fourth ofjuly weekend by holding an event at Mount Rushmore. There was little social distancing among the crowd at the famous monument in south dakota with few people wearing Face Coverings. The president has faced criticism as a number of states across the country have seen large spikes in new coronavirus infections. Dozens of landmarks across the uk will be lit up in blue this evening, to mark tomorrows 72nd anniversary of the founding of the nhs. People are being encouraged to observe a minutes silence and light a candle in remembrance of those who have died during the pandemic. A nationwide round of applause is set to take place tomorrow evening at five oclock, to thank the Health Service and its key workers. Its 9. 10. Heres stav with a look at this mornings weather. How is it looking . Good morning. U nsettled unsettled this weekend, castro mind back, we had a weekend which brought wet windy weather. There will be further rain. More of an terminal thrilling weekend for many with regards to the wind because its moisture laden air unfortunately bringing a lot of cloud. Great for a lot of us, thicker across Western Areas with light rain and mist and low cloud. East of any high ground, eastern scotland seen the best of the sunshine. East wales should see some brightness, quite warm in that humid air but generally where there is cloud mid high teens celsius. This evening and overnight wetter and windier. Across the north and west. Whens picking up and a band of cloud across england and wales. Maggie struck tonight but fresher by the end of the night as the wind picks up because we have a cold front spreading across the country introducing fresh air. Very deep for the time of year. Blustery day. More like autumn in july. The time of year. Blustery day. More like autumn injuly. A lot of sunshine around, dry altogether in the south east. Most of the showers heavy and blustery, rumbles of thunder, strongest of the wind here. Up thunder, strongest of the wind here. Up to 60 miles an hourfor a time. The strength of wind could lead to some disruption and a touch fresher through tomorrow. Temperatures ranging from 14 to the low 20s in the south east. This morning weve been talking about the biggest easing of restrictions in england since lockdown began with pubs, bars and restaurants allowed to re open their doors from 6am this morning. Breakfasts john maguire is in bristol to see how pubs are preparing. John, youve been up early, are you ready for a pint yet . You are seeing how preparations are being put in place for those who are going to indulge later on today. You are right. Were notjust overlooking the river but we are on it. Look at the paddle boarders who have come out this morning. Shall we them a wave . They are waving back. If they wanted to later on they could pull alongside because there are moving along the barge to have a refreshing drink. The is his Great Britain is a museum, fantastic but it remains closed. They have taken the decision to remain closed. It goes to show what we have been talking about this morning and over the last couple of weeks that not everybody will automatically feel it is right for their business to open and try to get back to some sense of normality. Table service, as you can see, open air spacing between all of the furniture, Table Numbers so the waiter or waitress can come up and serve you. Now standing at the bar and list of instructions and guidelines, dos and donts on the back of the table. Things will be different. Will you be able to reca ptu re different. Will you be able to recapture the magic of the british pub . We will have to see and we will have to see whether people can be tempted to come out to spend money again to reinject some much needed cash into the british Hospitality Industry. Brewing is back. Theyve kept busy during lockdown by producing bottle beer. But a few weeks ago the bristol beer factory took a punt the pubs would be allowed to reopen in england this weekend and so they are ready to supply them. I wonder, now youve brewed it, will they come . We hope people will come out and support the local pubs. We hope people will be sensible and that theyll react in an intelligent way to the measures we have all had to put in place to ensure the safety of our staff and the safety of our customers. So that hopefully we can continue to build, as we return, to something, certainly for our industry, to something approaching normal. But there is a great unknown. Nobody will have the answer for weeks to come, i suspect. At the front of the brewery, in the tap house, an invaluable tool in the pub trade in 2020 is in use. A tape measure, ensuring that if and hopefully when people come for a drink today theyll be able to keep safely and socially distant. And if your brother happens to be a joiner, why not utilise his skills, as the landlord has at the coopers arms . Weve got all these bays ready for people to sit in. Weve got perspex up at the bar to safeguard the staff. And obviously the customers, we have individual panels to divide everybody up. All these have got little perspex windows in, so that when our customers sit down they can see who they are sat next to and chat through the window and they can also shout for a drink from here, if they like, if they can catch one of the staffs eyes and their drinks will be brought out to them. Public safety is the main concern. Emergency services are ready. Always busy on saturday nights in town and city centres, but what will tonight be like . Its been very difficult for everybody in terms of the impact on Mental Health and well being, so i fully expect people will want to go out and party and we would not want to rain on anybodyd parade in that regard, but we are preparing for there to be quite significant increase demand. I know the wider nhs are also planning for that and our Police Colleagues additionally. We expect to see, i think, new years eve type events in terms of numbers, volumes, although it has to be said that nightclubs arent opening, so in terms of the timings of things things hopefully should quieten down sooner. And the police are warning people to manage expectations. If youre going to go out then do it responsibly, think ahead, think about where you are going, make sure the place you are going to can accommodate you safely. We do recognise that its important for local businesses as well to get back to a new sense of normal, but what we want to do is just make sure people do that in a safe way, because what we just need to understand that we are still very much in this pandemic and we need to make sure we do all we can to ensure that we tackle this virus. Once these boards blocked the windows here at the mothers ruin pub, part of the soundproofing as this is a music venue. But now they are being repurposed as screens between tables and the music must be kept low so the customers dont raise their voices and potentially spread coronavirus. We used to have loud music in here, we wont be able to have that. However, im confident that people are very social creatures and they will be able to adapt to it in the short term. However, the music will be very low, hopefully it will be a nice hubbub of talking and people enjoying themselves and that will create an atmosphere, rather than us creating an atmosphere that people want to be in, if that makes sense. Replacing flyers for bands are a track and trace form, details of an app to order drinks and a list of dos and donts. So not a typical saturday night. And in terms of the amount of customers allowed in, pubs and bars will only be able to serve a fraction of their normal number. Many will struggle to break even. But for this first night in months their doors will be open. They wont be calling time just yet. Back on the river even, there has been so much to think about the staff over the last couple of months. Since lockdown was first imposed on the public and i spoke to the other day year found it more mentally challenging to work out the restrictions and new rules than opening a new venue in the first place. Lets find out how they are doing here. Good morning to you both. We are three hours away from opening. Do you if you will be busy today . Yes, our bookings are pretty full to the max so were hoping for a really nice busy day. Different to how you normally run it so bookings only, Table Service only, what is the system . We are operating bookings only because they are all god which is fantastic for us. We being overly cautious so we have everyones information and know what to expect with we hope today all being well we can have walk up tables and return to the normal booking procedure here. We are Table Service only now, drastically reduced the number of tables we have so it is quite nice for people to have space and have that Table Service so there is no being crammed in around the bar. You have your ppe visor, if you could grab that and show us, that is what the waiting staff will be wearing, is it . Because were in a Hospitality Industry were face to face with customers i think we have gone full visors so people can see our faces and we can give Good Customer Service and we can have reusable facemasks for others. Numbers today, you are restricted hours, what would you are restricted hours, what would you normally accommodate and what argue now going to do . Depending on various layouts before we could hit that 100 on the top deck, up to 150 on the stick and up to 100 downstairs, much smaller today, on the stick and up to 100 downstairs, much smallertoday, no event space open for the immediate future. And here we have halved the Table Numbers and upstairs we have got nine tables as opposed to 11 there before. Much smaller. Yes, good morning, it has been a Long Time Coming today, hasnt it . Are you nervous about today . A little bit but it is about making sure we follow the procedures properly and keep customers safe. It will be nice to see everyone to be honest.

You will have locals back today. I hope so. I dont know. I hope they have missed us. We have missed them. dont know. I hope they have missed us. We have missed them. I am sure they have. Thank you both very much indeed. Midday this pub opens. This bar, others will have different Opening Times across england. We are only talking about england of course. Some businesses will have decided it is not yet appropriate open. Tiny pubs are some of the best pubs, there will not be offering.

It has been all go here today. Good morning everybody. We have got valerie in the seat, audrey ready for a wash. You are happy to be here . I am delighted. Delighted. Good morning everybody. First things first, let me take you back to 6am. When we first arrived, i want to show you the first two ladies who were in the hot seats. Gabrielle and gill came in rocking curls and a camilla do and then we covered up the matters so they could not see their big moment of transformation. When we took the curtains off. This is exactly what happened. Have a look. Fabulous, thank you. Are you liking it . Yes . Bit late to be coming off. To get that screen off. Its gorgeous. Love it. Your curls have been straightened. They have, thank the lord. Why was this important . To you . It makes me feel half attractive again. Half attractive, this is what we are aiming for. Claire, do the honours. Are you ready . What do you reckon . Looks a lot better than when i came in than i expected it to because claire is very good at herjob. She is a professional. Your appointment was cancelled on the day of lockdown, wasnt it . It was. Are you glad to be back . Yes i am. Claire we have had somejoy, safety be back . Yes i am. Claire we have had some joy, safety first. Run us through some Safety Measures. Absolutely. Extractor fans, visors, everything is disposable that we are using. Health check forms. They run through the questions about how you had a temperature. Are you sharing a home with anyone isolating, have you had a positive test . Complying with social distance guidelines. You had a positive test . Complying with socialdistance guidelines. For the viewers, to explain, the government says clients do not have to wear a facemask but hairdressers do have to wear a visor to stop your droplets reaching them and their droplets reaching them and their droplets reaching them and their droplets reaching you. What has been really interesting is that the government have said you cannot play loud music in a salon because if you do, you are projecting to be heard over the music. But claire, i have noticed this morning that people have to project over the sound of the hairdryers. Do you think that is the hairdryers. Do you think that is the right guidance on clients and facemasks . He said its personal choice, so. Who am i to say . But yes it can be noisy in here without music. Even without music. It has been lovely sharing the morning with you. I want to end with this. Look at this, we have customers. The next customers are at this, we have customers. The next customers a re safely at this, we have customers. The next customers are safely waiting outside. One lady who was in before, her name was francis and she was a lovely lady who came in here crying her eyes out, i begged her to stay and talk, she was too shy, wasnt she clear . She came in and floods andi she clear . She came in and floods and i ask why she was crying and she saidi and i ask why she was crying and she said i am crying for the girls in the salon and all of the world because what we have been through has been awful but this feels like the first step on the road to normality. And she left beaming, did she not . She did. It was a touching moment. Here is bottom of the lesser priorities in a fat pandemic but this feels like a good moment. These ladies are like family to us. Glad to be back . And it is not the bottom of the list that is what people should have realised. Beauty should not be and neither should fitness because of Mental Health issues so come on the first step to us all getting back out there. A lovely morning, thank you. Studio thanks so much. It is not the most important thing, but having said that,. So as weve seen, one the big talking points of lockdown has been our Political Correspondent chris masons hair. Yes its even been discussed on gogglebox he has not presented himself on air like that but that is probably how he wakes up. Today though hell bid farewell to his straggly mane, as weve managed to book him an appointment at an east london barbers. Chris, how are you . Good morning. It is has not come a moment soon enough for me. As you probably know i am not usually a slave to fashion. Dont bother with paraphernalia like combs and that kind of self buyout i had to deploy my daughters brush to keep this main under some sort of control when i am on the telly but the moment has come. Let me introduce you to the man of the moment in the barbers here in east london. Good morning. Talk us through the process of reopening. You have an impressive headgear on for a start. We have guidelines to wear visors, face shields, gloves, disinfect everything we use after every client. The whole place after every client. The whole place after every client. The whole place after every client leaves, disinfect the chair, the capes, everything. Disposable capes. We have chosen to use next trip to keep the hair out and keep it away from touching the neck of the client. How have things been over the last couple of months . You have not had the barbers open, how have you coped . Its been really hard. Really hard and eats into the bank account a lot. It has been good for being able to get the shop ready and do repairs we have put off for a while but with all the money going out i and nothing coming and it affects about but over the next couple of weeks hopefully things will change quite a lot. couple of weeks hopefully things will change quite a lot. I have been worried for a couple of weeks. About the prospect of a minor bird of prey taking up residence in my hair and not noticing so it is time for you to use your expertise and get rid of all of this stuff and shall i get the keep on . Lets. Lets get some trimming done. Studio cani trimming done. Studio can i interrupt for a minute . Can you hear us ok . Can you talk us through, forget about the pandemic for a moment, what is the look that you are going for today . You are asking me for some terminology that is beyond my vocabulary in terms of the look i will go for they. I am normally a crushing bore, i use scissors and vaguely tidy. What can you do . I guess you have not had much practice . It will be fine. Studio can you hear me . Have you taken a picture of someone like a movie star and said you want to look like that . Laughter you know the answer to that. No. Here we go. Studio the haircut is in process and we will come back later to see the results. Do you think people going to hairdressers and ask for your haircut . I dont think so. Possibly. If thats matt tebbutt . Is he listening in . Hesjust scared because he doesnt know what is going to come his way. Thats exactly it. That was with my trouble, i didnt have the poker face, where you look like you are listening but youre not. My question for you is, watch movie star picture did you take when you ask for that haircut . I knew you would ask that. Well, i mean, my common sense says dont tell her. The other side of me says, val kilmer. I was about 15, it was post top gun. And it ended upjust being shaved. Im going to chuck a name into the equation. Norman wisdom. Hes got the look. That was a classic Norman Wisdom move there. Well it got a laugh here. Should we carry on with this . And you thought i was the main one you both got an edge. Lets move on, our special guest today is a global superstar, it is katherine jenkins. Good morning, catherine. How are you . Good thanks. How are you . Good thanks. We can talk properly later about everything thats going on, your new album was out yesterday, lets talk about ingredients now. Talk us through your ingredients, these tricky ingredients that you got inspiration from. So im getting all my vegetables from farm boxes and ive been getting loads of onions, potatoes and turnips. And i dont know what to do with turnips, other than to kind of roast them, so i would love some inspiration on that. But i love mushrooms, so i have some nice portobello is and some dried porcini mushrooms as well. Do you have any cattle . You can feed them to cattle the turnips. I also have some cracking company here, ata i also have some cracking company here, at a safe distance, jason atherton. What you do with turnips . Well, today are making a simple dish, poach sardines, banging season right now for that, serve them on toast. Jane baxter, what are you making . Im going to make cherry colour fruity with cherry ice cream and chocolate sauce. Ollie, do you have your trolley . Yes, replete with brea kfast have your trolley . Yes, replete with breakfast wine. Nightshirt ollie. Are you going to the pub . Maybe. Im going to be using british strawberries later and we will be joined with a chocolate hack later. You guys will decide what to make at the end of the show with catherines ingredients. We will see you at ten. Lam ingredients. We will see you at ten. I am still slightly reeling from the whole Norman Wisdom thing. i am still slightly reeling from the whole Norman Wisdom thing. Ijust say, it is no bad thing to be compared to Norman Wisdom. I think in his mid 80s, he can still do push handstands. He was, there nothing wrong with it. It wasnt the kind of movie star looked i was hoping for. 0r wasnt he the most famous man in lithuania or something . Can ijust say, you are closer to Norman Wisdom than you were about his kilmer. Hello, this is breakfast with Charlie Stayt and Naga Munchetty. Coming up before ten we have the sport and weather. But first, a summary of this mornings main news. After more than 100 days in lockdown, people in england can now visit hairdressers, pubs, cinemas and restaurants from today. Its the largest easing of coronavirus restrictions so far, but englands chief medical officer, chris whitty, warned that people will have to continue to respect social distancing and advised wearing Face Coverings to avoid a second wave of the coronavirus pandemic. The Prime Minister also urged people to act responsibly. Seven Police Officers have been injured after they attempted to break up an Illegal Party in west london. Videos posted on social media show dozens of metropolitan Police Officers retreating as missiles were thrown at them by party goers in white city. So far, no arrests have been made. Lets speak to commander bas javid from the metropolitan police. Lets talk about the incident in white city. What happened . So we had an unlicensed music event. These events a re an unlicensed music event. These events are illegal, and they pose Significant Health risks. So, yesterday, there was one in west london. Initially, we attended and through engaging with the crowd and the people who were there, we see is the people who were there, we see is the sound equipment and the event was moved on quite peacefully, start with. But then later, it re occurred and when we attempted again, there we re and when we attempted again, there were clearly very different attitudes from people who were there and we had to take a much more firm line is we do. Again, we broke up the crowd and receive the sound equipment. And no arrests were made . At this stage, we have made no arrests but clearly, as we always do in circumstances like this, there will be a very clear and very thorough investigation and we will be making arrests, i assure you of that. What are your concerns as the lockdown easing is happening today. Its a saturday, of course, what are your concerns in relation to that . Our concerns are obviously that there will be a higher footfall on there will be a higher footfall on the streets, there will be more people. As you said yourself, there is going to be an easing of restrictions and it is clearly a high level of social responsibility on all of us to make sure we deal with that sensibly. We worked very ha rd over with that sensibly. We worked very hard over the past few weeks, but also landlords and licensees as well, to make sure that we do everything we can to make a safe environment. Now, there is a very interesting area in relation to advice and the law. So, the advice is what the government gives out, the law has changed periodically during the lockdown. The current advice from the government is that there are rules around indoor gatherings, advice around to households and outdoor gatherings. Outdoor gathering is limited to six people. But that is advice, but what happened yesterday, this is where the Police Become involved, is that the Police Become involved, is that the law changed. This is a Health Protection regulations. In amongst those, was the law that says now that gatherings of up to 30 people will be allowed anywhere in england, and we are talking specifically about england, apart from leicester where different rules apply. How do you, a police force, interpret this new number and new law . Clearly, we arent going to change our line on that. We will continue to do what we have been doing with communities before, that is the starting point, is to encourage people to stick with the new guidelines and laws and then ta ke the new guidelines and laws and then take a staged approach and enforcement will be further down the line, but we have boys been clear that if these laws and regulations do need to be enforced, we will do that. The starting point always has to be engagement. Specific to these numbers, just for clarity, for example, this is something that you have very much conjured along with the public. You have worked in cooperation with the public. If you have a gathering of 20 people now, given that the new Health Protection regulations say that gatherings of up regulations say that gatherings of up to 30 people are allowed, how does that work in practice in terms of how your offices will react . We will do what we have done before. We will do what we have done before. We will be out in public, speaking to people, giving guidance and advice if you think people are in large numbers. Thats just what we are now dealing with is a different number. What we are not dealing with a whole new set of circumstances. The main message that i will give people is all of us, to make sure that we stick with these guidelines for our own safety and health and that of ourfamilies. I own safety and health and that of our families. I think own safety and health and that of ourfamilies. I think we have all come in extremely long way since march and it would be such a shame to undo that and the government have been very, very clear that if it is necessary to take steps as we have seenin necessary to take steps as we have seen in leicester, that will be the case. Lets hope we dont come to that. Thank you very much for your time. Looking at that incident last night and also looking at how police will interpret the guidelines which are changing and of course, the assumption is that people will behave responsibly. As the Prime Minister has been urging as well. We are celebrating a birthday today. Mike and give us the details. Oh totally, whenever doddie weir appears on this programme, he always lights up the programme and his amazing determination and spirit because, going back to three and a half years ago was diagnosed with Motor Neurone Disease, three and half years ago, three and half years ago, he didnt think he would live to see his 50th birthday. Yet today, he reaches, the big 5 0, and im delighted to say, in a moment, we will be joined by doddie on his birthday, but before that, some of his friends from the sporting world wanted to send their own messages. Ive been pulling them all together. I hope youre well, just wishing you a very many happy returns on your 50th birthday. I hope you have a fantastic day with the family. And it is with his family, his wife and sons, that doddie weir will spend his 50th birthday today. On the farm, in the countryside that he believes gave him the strength and the legs that won him 61 caps for scotland. When he goes like that, he is like a mad giraffe and hes got great skills. The kids and the wife have been superb, because they are doing for me what may be normal families wouldnt need to do. Im here to try and fight it and try and find a cure. The fight, i think goes back to rugby days. And the man who knows its best is his former team mate and current scotland coach. Hes got that competitivenessto fight anything ahead of him. And he says it is the rugby that has given him that fight. He is a very funny guy, but he would love to run over the top of you. The one disappointment during this period is that we were all going to celebrate this in cape town. We were due to be playing south africa on the same day as his birthday in cape town and he was looking forward to that. Happy birthday, big guy. You look 30 rather than 50. And from the world champions. Thank you so much for fighting for a cure so that people after you dont have to go through the same struggles that you face. We really appreciate and respect you for all that you do. Across the sporting world, his inspiration goes far beyond just the rugby field. Hi, doddie. I just want to wish you a very happy 50th birthday. I know it is a bit of a tough one because the pubs arent open, i just want to let you know that im putting my beer on ice until we can cheers to it properly. This is chris hoy, in case you dont recognise me. I have a bit of a ginger lockdown beard at the moment here, im afraid. I hope youre well, i hope things are fine at the farm i hope you doing 0k, the last time i saw you a Sports Personality of the year, so hopefully, i will see you soon. The 2019 Helen Rollason award. It was at Sports Personality last year that doddie won the Helen Rollason award, for Outstanding Achievement in the face of adversity. Ive always known that you are an outstanding rugby player, but in the past year or two, you have shown what an outstanding human being you are as well. You are someone that we all look up to, you are a real inspiration to us all. If you knew how many takes it took me to do this video for you, that will give you a little laugh. It certainly given me a little laugh, i know im easily pleased. I hope you have a new tartan for this very special occasion. Thank you for everything that you do and everything that you stand for and the person you are. Im so proud of you, enjoy the celebrations. And rocking the beat for those celebrations, doddies favourite band, runrig. You a national treasure, a tartan treasure and a complete inspiration. Also, by the way, not to shabby a long forward. So, cheers, happy 50th, slainte. The final toast in this breakfast surprise comes from two other sporting legends now in the same team as doddie, fighting most neurone disease. Rugby leagues rob burrow and former footballer, stephen darby, who found strength together in lockdown. Happy birthday, doddie. Have a great day mate hi doddie. So, have a great birthday doddie, in your happy place, on the farm. Just imagine trying to tackle one of these to the ground. Im scared about getting too close to them now because my balance is not quite the same. So im delighted to say we can cross live now to the farm and the birthday boy himself. Happy birthday doddie. Thanks so much for sharing some time on this big day. Its quite a guest list there of those people wanting to share beers with you when they can. Its been truly unbelievable, i was thinking before, what a great day the 4th ofjuly is. Charlie can get his hair cut, people can finally get his hair cut, people can finally get a get his hair cut, people can finally geta drink get his hair cut, people can finally get a drink in the pub and here i am celebrating my 50th. I never thought for one minute i would be here, but i will be having a great time, i will be heading outside and sharing it with friends and family. Presents, cards, messages, have been truly amazing. Thats brilliant. How is it been so far . Did you get a burly or do you like a lion . Well weve been quite busy already. I thought id better join weve been quite busy already. I thought id betterjoin in, so this morning, i did five miles. So with that, weve done five miles already so its been quite hectic. John very kindly turned up yesterday and left the most amazing chocolate cake and i thought, as its my 50th birthday, ill eat it all myself. You look so well and you sound in great spirits. How are you feeling . You sound on top of the world. I think mike, the world around us there has been hardship on hard times but ive a lwa ys hardship on hard times but ive always had a quest for life, enjoy it while you can, you dont know whats round the corner. As you mentioned in the programme, it was three and a half years ago that i got diagnosed with Motor Neurone Disease which basically shuts down the whole body. My doctor said that i wouldnt be walking into his surgery any years time. I didnt know how long i would walk, Life Expectancy between one and three yea rs. Expectancy between one and three years. But here i am, ive had the best care in the world, i need help with doing my hair and clothing but ican with doing my hair and clothing but i can still do a lot of things, walk, talk, eat, drive my tractor, so things are never that bad so to celebrate my 50th and had heading on. Yes, everyone will be toasting you. You have only been on your bike as you mention this morning, i know that everybody is queueing up to say happy birthday. I know that. Sorry for muscling in, mike. Lovely to see you. Now you got personal mentioning my hair, thats my excuse to get personal with you because, i will say this, i know, because i have in a room with you every once in awhile at events, i know that you have a very real impact on people. Maybe lots of people who knew nothing about he was a rugby player, with the greatest respect, you really do have an impact, there is something about you and what has happened to you and how you respond to it, that really makes a difference to people. Its worth saying that sometimes and i think you must, you are aware of it, i know you are. Play this very lightly, its true. I do find it very difficult when people are nice to me. I get quite emotional about it but i think going back to the sports, the sporting world has shown me, the support has been it amazing. With Motor Neurone Disease, you are basically told to go home and die which, when i got diagnosed three and half years ago, i thought was unacceptable. And when you have a fight, so my opposition at the moment is Motor Neurone Disease so with the team i am putting together, we are trying to fight and battle it. So people can live a lot longer and dont have to go through this. Its been tough during lockdown, we have lost quite a number of friends that ive met during the Motor Neurone Disease situation, so its very serious. But in the quest of life, you have to enjoy every day as it comes and today, for lots of different reasons, its going to be a marvellous day and ill raise a glass to you all later on after this programme. And one more present for you, daddy. Overnight, you were inducted into the Scottish Rugby hall of fame. What an honour. One more present for you doddie. Its been amazing, the coronaviruses put limits on what we can do obviously but my family here on the farm, its great, and the hall of fame isjust another example. Its very very kind and im honoured to be involved. Youve got a busy day ahead, doddie. Youve got that cake to get through. Its been an honour chatting to you, once again, thank you for all you do and have the most wonderful 50th birthday. And thats right, you look 30, not 50. Happy birthday from all of us. And its never too early to have chocolate ca ke never too early to have chocolate cake as far as im concerned. Perfect start to the day. Heres stav with a look at this mornings weather. There is some sunshine out at the moment, eastern scotland faring the best, shelter from the wins. But for most of us, these are the types of skies that we will be expecting throughout the day today, rather grey and leaden and that cloud is thick enough to allow for some spots of light rain and drizzle across Western Areas. But as we move through the weekend, we see unseasonably strong winds, Gale Force Winds is a deep area of low pressure passes the north of the uk. This is the pressure chart through today, west winds. This moisture laden air is quite giving rise to all this cloud across the country. Spots of rain across Western Areas, drier further east, spells a brightness, probably the best of it across the east of scotland. Temperature wise, around mid to high teens in the north, closer to the low 20s in the south, where we get sunshine for quite a while, im surprised if you see temperatures touch around the mid 20s. Thats because of the warm and humid air. Through tonight, it will turn wetter and windier across all areas, heavy rain in the north, rain spreading eastwards a cross rain in the north, rain spreading eastwards across the country and those winds really picking up by the end of the night. Those temperatures will be mild to start with and then turning fresh air as we move through, here it is, deep area of low pressure on sunday will bring wide spread gales across northern and central areas with heavy rain and central areas with heavy rain and blustery showers at times as well. Thanks, enjoy your weekend. This while pubs, restaurants and cinemas are re opening this weekend, theatres will remain shut and many in the industry are warning joining us now from londons west end, is one of the designers behind the campaign, tom piper. You have to explain the tape behind you. Thats what the message that youre trying to get through it. Im a part of a group called scene change and we came up with an idea of wrapping all theatres across the country with this specially printed hazard warning tape that says missing live theatre. So its a reminder that even though the shops and restaurants are going back, we cant get back into theatres and we miss them as places of great community. Sir tom, what practically can theatres do to say government, look, we are ready. I dont think its ever been said that theatres arent important, its just that perhaps the government thinks it isnt time now. So what needs to be said by the theatre industry to say it is . The main problem at the moment is that in order to break even, theatre needs to have. So with even one metre distance, you cant do that, you cant fill an auditorium. So what we need is a clear road map with a date line as to when we can reopen and we need investment now to stop theatres going bust. Unless there is investment by christmas, 70 of theatres could be dissolved and if we dont hear soon, most christmas shows will be cancelled as well. So its an investment. Its such a profitable industry, it so good for the national psyche, we are a world leader in theatre and we want to get back in. And we cant do it until we can do it safely. The reality of this, which you will know very well, is that already, actors, staff and theatres, are being laid off. Its happening as we speak. Yes, yesterday, we wrapped the royal a change in manchester, they are laying off people. Plymouth theatre royal, southampton nuffield, and its notjust in theatres, is to freelance workers who work in them, the people that people dont see, technicians, wardrobe, prop makers, all of those people are facing really difficult times. They have no work. So, when it comes down to performances that can work, im not so sure if its the old vic that is doing a two hander and streaming it and busy getting revenue from that. Is that possible Business Model that can be adopted with other theatres . I think that is a Business Model but its not the same, because there is no audience. Not actually in the same space, so i think in the short term, if you have some famous actors who might get the box office, then that model is possible but its not a communal activity. Its down the line, so equally, you could do performances outside, but again, the weather isnt really suitable in this country and you may not get the money back to do it, so its really difficult. Really interesting talking to you tom. Thanks very much for bringing the issue to light, im sure we will talk about it much more as well. Normally when we say we are going to our Political Correspondent chris mason, it sounds like its going to be serious. Lets remind ourselves of how his hair has been during lockdown. He is getting it sorted. To his satisfaction, i quite liked it. Are we ready then . Lets build up it. Are we ready then . Lets build up to this. We have the big transformation. There we go, here we are at the barbers with chris mason now. What a couple of minutes this has been. The feeling of embracing has ust felt absolutel normality has just felt absolutely brilliant. This is sheldons debut with this it is in three months. We are doing this haircutting thing with all the paraphernalia on, using the scissors when wearing loves is quite tricky isnt it . Its more that the comb catches the glove a little bit and you get over it, its the facemask, trying to get it round the facemask, trying to get it round the ears, its a bit tricky as well, depends on the facemask, obviously. But no, its not too shabby. Its a work of genius. Im so grateful to you. And i tell you what, i dont mean to over do this because its not as if i had pig tails are a ponytail, but my head feels lighter, having managed to get rid of all that hair and maybe i can dispense with my daughters tangle teas brush and just resort to jumping out of bed. Re embracing normality in england today, with this does feel wonderful. I have to say the obvious. Using is lovely feeling back to normal, you are speaking to us from a barbers with a mask on. I know we have got used to things that werent normal, that are normal now. Looking good by the way, looking good. A hair endorsement from you charlie is good enough for me. That sets me up for the weekend. Whatever youre up to this weekend, do have a one. Goodbye. This is bbc news with the latest headlines for viewers in the uk and around the world. A major easing of the coronavirus lockdown comes into effect in england with pubs, restaurants, hotels, and cinemas all able to re open. Lockdown only succeeded in controlling the virus because everyone worked together. And we will only succeed in reopening if everyone works together again. Some hairdressers in england have been open since midnight. Businesses will have to have new rules and procedures in place. A local lockdown comes into force in the city of leicester. Hospitality businesses arent allowed to open and social gatherings and overnight stays are banned
