Negotiator has aimed to end the ambiguity, expressing concern about progress so ambiguity, expressing concern about progress so far towards brexit. He warned ambiguity must be removed in progress on separation issues made. David davies said the sides had to show flexibility and imagination. Gliding into eu headquarters, david davis. The summer almost over, it is now that the brexit stakes get serious. Dont be fooled by the smiles between the chief negotiators. Serious tensions are brewing. We are concerned. Time passes quickly. From the eus michel barnier, evident frustration that the talks are moving far too slowly. We must start negotiating seriously. We need uk papers that are clear, in order to have constructive negotiations. And it is money that he means, the uks brexit bill. But, from david davis, a combative response, so the battle is brewing. We want to lock in the points where we agree, unpick where we disagree, and make further progress on the whole range of issues. But in order to do that, we require flexibility and imagination on both sides. David davis and his team, stung by accusations they were ill prepared last time, have spent the summer creating papers. But the eu has dismissed them, saying they lack detail and are not on what we need to talk about. Magical thinking, they called them. They say it is aspirational, nothing to do with what is being talked about now. David davis wants to get on with discussing the future relationship with the eu, the rules for trade, and what laws would apply. But the eu, for now, will only address separation issues and the rights of citizens after brexit, the irish border, and the immigration issue. Today, Angela Merkel was meeting a macron in paris. They were in lockstep. They said the uk must agree to pay its dues before trade talks can begin. And another complication for david davis the shifting politics back home. Labour now backing continued mentorship of the Single Market and Customs Union for a transition, a contrast to the governments position. David grammaticus, bbc news, brussels. This week on the travel show. So were going to be diving on an archaeological site . Yeah, exactly. Underwater . Exactly. Were swimming back to the bronze age in macedonia. Oh, wow. You see all walks of life coming in to get a tattoo, bankers, lawyers, doctors. Were making a lasting mark in singapore. Its art, and its beautiful art at that. Were taking someone elses seat in first class. If someone finds me in an airport and says, hey, catch me if you can, yes, i will switch seats with you. You can take my first or Business Class seat and ill go back to wherever youre sitting. Im going to prepare this how it would have been in the tudor times. And were taking a bite out of one of King Henry Viiis favourite treats. First this week, were visiting this small country with a big history and sites stating all the way back to the bronze age. People there are hoping that ancient past will pull in todays tourists. We sent Amanda Ruggieri to lake 0hrid in macedonia to find out more. This mostly rural country has drawn people and empires for thousands of years. The ancient persians conquered this area, so did alexander the great. So i arrived into macedonia late last night. It is a landlocked Little Country in the balkans, so i drove 3. 5 hours through mountains and forests. It was lush, it was absolutely beautiful. But i didnt see a single body of water. Until i drove over a hill and found myself here at lake 0hrid, one of the most beautiful lakes i think ive ever seen. This is the oldest lake in europe. The area around it is old as well. Even the town of 0hrid even was a town at the time that King Alexander the great was king in the fourth century bc. That ancient history is one of the main reasons visitors love to come here. Most of the tourists want to experience the engine thing, to see the culture here. What about as a local, as a macedonian, what does the history here mean to you . The history, i actually love the history. In the same time im feeling so proud about my history. Ive got a sense of this lakes extraordinary history from its surface. Hello hi, nice to meet you. Nice to meet you a little diving today . Yes, please. Come on. But to really go in search of lake 0hrids ancient roots, i have to get a little wet. You are ready . Come on, follow me. So were going to be diving on an archaeological site . Yeah, exactly. Underwater . Exactly, exactly. So its notjust your normal typical everyday dive, its like something more on top of that. Including a lot of interesting artefacts and objects which are more than 3000 years old. We dont have to go far to find traces of 0hrids ancient history underwater. With the water so still and clear, diving here is so relaxing, but i almost swim right by without even noticing the first artefacts. Jovan has to point them out to me. But when i look, i see they look like the stumps of trees. These are wooden pylons that in a stroke of bronze age ingenuity, once held up houses built on a platforms over the water. In fact, archaeologists have found 6000 remains of these wooden pylons in the lake. Jovan also points out some other object and its obvious they arent just the normal debris that you would expect to see in the lake bottom. This artefact is probably something used to drink from, all right, so as you can see there is a really small handle right here, ergonomically made, right . Sojudging by this, if you can see. Can i hold it . Please do, careful. Wow. You can see some shells around it. Still wet from our dive. Thats the most Perfect Little handle so, its kind of interesting to see how they used to do these things. You think this would have been a cup to drink out of . Most probably, yes, yes. Wow. And the last one is the stone axe. This is the front part. You put the stick there or the wooden stick with the handle, and there from behind you have the part that weve seen underwater. As fascinating as it is to discover, and even touch artefacts from 0hrids ancient past, it is still difficult to picture what life would have been like here some 3000 years ago. This is where this reconstructed bronze age settlement comes in. Called the bay of the bones, the settlement has 2a houses built on a wooden platform over the lake. Lake 0hrid and the area are considered so special, they even have been listed as a World Heritage site by unesco. And 0hrid has another big draw for visitors around the world, too. The annual 0hrid summer festival has hosted musicians, actors and singers from more than 60 different countries. 0ur concerts are full and this year we have more than 350 artists playing and acting here. We have 33 concerts, ballet performances, and nine drama shows. The venues used for the 0hrid summer festival are all historic sites. That includes this ancient roman amphitheatre. We have this marvellous stage also in the amphitheatre, made 2000 years before our era. Is there is something really special about performing in an amphitheatre like this or in an 11th Century Church . I think it is because this amphitheatre looks spectacular in the night with 3000 visitors here. Also every musician is really excited performing. Yes, and the acoustic of saint sofia is really spectacular. Im sure you will come for some concerts and you will have the opportunity to listen. Possibly dating all the way back to the ninth century, 0hrids church of saint sofia is one of the most important buildings in all of macedonia. Today, its interior is covered with glorious byzantine frescoes, painted between the 11th and 13th centuries. I think that 0hrid is an excellent mix between the ancient history and culture and the programme we do as a festival, and also the culinary and the restaurants and the good food and the good nightlife. I think that everything is important to have a good offer for the tourists. On a night like this, when a pianist is performing here for the festival, the combination of 0hrids history, art and music is intoxicating. It is easy to see why locals are hopeful that more and more visitors will fall in love with this area and its history. Next on the travel show, lets take another trip back in time, to get a taste of a dish made for one of the most notorious of kings. My names andrew chan, im the head chef at Thornbury Castle in South Gloucestershire. Thornbury castles famous for henry viii and anne boleyn. They came here for their honeymoon. Today ill be trying to replicate a dish they would have eaten at that time. Im going to prepare a dish that could have been had in tudor times. Its South Gloucestershire pork cheek with black pudding bonbon, some vegetables and sage. This is gloucester pork. You have the pork cheek. The only meat were going to take out initially is the cheek. What im going to do now is season that. Get it into the pan and get some nice caramelisation on it. In tudor times the food was homely and very moreish. So they would have grown their potatoes, their carrots, their swedes, their parsnips. You get natural sweetness out of the vegetables. And some red wine. Pour some red wine in. Just plain beef stock. Going to pour it so it covers the whole dish. Leave it there for like two hours, give or take. Im making the bonbon. You have your flour, your eggs, your breadcrumbs. We have our mix so im going to make the mix now for you so im going to show you the black pudding. Put it into a mixing bowl. So from the pork stock you cook your pork cheek. We keep the sauce. Thats all left over. Reduce it down so it becomes quite sauce consistency. Put a tiny amount in. Just mix it up into a paste. So its easy enough to mould. Just put them in gently. And all were going to do is cook these for about a minute so we get a nice golden colour on them. Put the apple sauce, the vegetables, black pudding bonbon, South Gloucestershire pork cheek and you finish off with a nice little bit of sage. And pork broth. Still to come here on this weeks travel show. Were taking someone elses seat in first class. If someone finds me in an airport and says, hey, catch me if you can, yes, i will switch seats with you. You can take my first or Business Class seat and ill go back to wherever you were sitting. And were baring almost all in the name of body art.

The next generation of lunar robots explored a more earthbound location last month. Researchers travelled to mount etna, europes most active volcano to test the machines for project xxx, the Robotic Exploration of extreme environments. Etnas rocky terrain is similar to the moons. And like the moons its also prone to earthquakes. It is hoped the robots will monitor these lunar quakes and answer questions about the moons core. Closer to home, robots are also helping out passengers at Charles De Gaulle airport where a robot valet called stan parks your car after youve dropped it off. It then monitors your flight on the way back and has your car ready for you on your return. If the prototype is a success, stands makers claim this automated procedure will also maximise space in overcrowded car parks. And if you are struggling to find your next holiday destination, you might want to leave it to the team at srprs me. This Dutch Company has recently launched in the uk and for a fee, they claim theyll book you a mystery break with the destination kept secret until you reach the airport. Faced with a choice between city break and backpacking adventure, youre given only the barest idea of what to pack for. And of course, theres always the risk you could end up going somewhere youve been before. Thanks to everyone whos sent us their pictures this month, using the hashtag travel tuesday. Here are some of my favourites. Karl visited norfolk in the uk when he took this photo of a beautifully lit woodland trail. And kyle has snapped this sunset image of the Disney Springs in orlando, florida. Dont forget to check out our twitter and facebook feeds for extra special travel show content. Now lets look at the travel videos clocking up reviews online. 0ne country which has seen record breaking numbers of tourists in the last year is morocco with over 10 million visitors in 2016. So weve selected a couple of films which show the country at its best that you can also check out online. The film morocco was not a kind of preconceived plan. It was the result of the month of travel across the country that my wife and i did for our travel blog. This film was made using just one camera at the absolute minimum. Ifind people to be less intimidated. When you come in with the crew and large production, itjust changes the environment. Dont forget to get in touch. Its bbc travel show. A couple of years ago on the travel show, i had a preview of the massive new National Art Gallery in singapore. So what are we looking at here . We are looking at a work by japanese artist who was born in an aristocratic family. Its very visceral with that tiger scowling at us. Well, now were taking a look at a very different kind of singapore art. You know, its rare that a lot of our local Tattoo Community comes together, congregated in one area in one spot. These are very talented individuals and, you know, its art, and its beautiful art at that. I guess im one of the most well known tattooists in the world. Ive been travelling for about ten years now, tattooing just anybody that i can. Its so intimate. Tattooing is really intimate, because youre dealing with touching people and it is one on one for so long, its just an intimate thing. Its overwhelming getting a lot of attention, you know what i mean . Its hard to focus because ijust want to create good art. Super grateful but its hard. What ive noticed about singapore in general, its not very heavily tattooed. But Walking Around the streets, i didnt see a lot of tattoos on lower limbs where you can see it, or necks and faces and stuff. So that was really interesting because everywhere i go everyone is really heavily tattooed. This is a very significant event for the tattooing community, especially in singapore. Weve come up from an era of back in the day where tattoos might have had a bit of negative connotation. There are still a few barriers and the stigma is still kind of there. So doing an event like this is reallyjust trying to remove all that. The people in singapore associate tattooing with negativity like being a triad and mostly bad stuff. But now we are opening up, you see all walks of life coming in to get a tattoo, bankers, lawyers, doctors, you know. People are opening up to it quite a lot more and i think thats a good thing. We are looking for the quality of work. The points are given in each individual details. For example, for colours, we make sure they are bright and solid and the blends are smooth. For black and grey, of course were looking at the design, the depth, the detail. The individual creation from the artist. To me, every single tattoo design is between the client and the artist. That should be the way that we are looking at it. A good tattoo on the individual body, youre not only going to attract more people looking at you, you will also help the wearer to have a better self confidence. Unfortunately, i have never been satisfied for the things ive done. As long as my client likes it, they are happy about it for many years, it is fine with me. The greatest part of going to conventions is i am able to draw tattoos all over the world, my name, and a piece of myself, my soul, and it lives there until the person passes, you know. And thats it for this weeks travel show, but coming up next week carmen begins becoming a journey through japan. Tackling the flavours that locals love but visitors might find a bit of a challenge. A bit like an oyster, really salty but the consistency. Bleugh join us next week for that if you can, but if you cant wait until then, sign up to our social media feeds. The details are on the screen now. But from me, henry golding, and the rest of the travel show team here in singapore, it is goodbye. Hello. A full uk forecast is on the way and i can tell you, it will be nothing like as disruptive or dangerous as the weather were still seeing on the other side of the atlantic. Tropical storm harvey has already delivered over one metre of rain in parts of texas. The radar picture shows the wet weather has been relentless and it continues on tuesday. We are likely to see further flooding and the problems may extend further east as well, along the gulf coast, through parts of louisiana, mississippi, alabama. The risk of tornadoes as well. This dangerous weather situation continues. Back home, some spots on monday got up to 28 degrees and south eastern areas could see something similar on tuesday. Further north and west, areas of cloud working into the picture. This stripe of cloud through yorkshire, lincolnshire, midlands, wales and the south west, very slow moving, the odd spot of rain along it. It marks a line between cooler and fresh air from the north west and some warmth that clings on the south eastern corner. Some sunny spells through london, essex, suffolk, kent. Some spots here could get up to 28 degrees. Not a bad day for the Channel Islands but for the south west of england, some cooler, fresher air. Despite some sunshine, 17 or 18 degrees. Maybe 20 in cardiff. A stripe of cloud stretching up across a good part of the midlands. For Northern Ireland, we end up with a mixture of sunshine and showers. Temperatures on the low side. 16 degrees in belfast. Some heavy showers being blown into northwest scotland on a strong and blustery wind. Maybe 17 degrees in aberdeen. Not too bad across northern england. Some sunshine but lincolnshire and the north norfolk coast as well, cloud, drizzle and misty, murky conditions. For tuesday night and the early part of wednesday, dry weather around, but by the end of the night, two different weather systems swarming and gathering down to the south. These threaten to bring a pretty wet day for parts of southern england, the midlands and wales as we go through wednesday. 0ne weather system towards the south west, one to the south east. Through northern england, Northern Ireland and scotland, afairamount of sunshine, some showers and temperatures similar, 16 or 17 degrees. We stick with the cooler, fresher feel for the end of the week with some spells of sunshine and just a few showers. Welcome to bbc news, broadcasting to viewers in north america and around the globe.
