is being reviewed, after the bbc obtained a recording of him telling carers about his plans to kill a year before. one of britain's best—known television presenters, phillip schofield, has revealed

a cruise ship off the coast of japan. the diamond princess is being held in quarantine in the port of yokohama till at least february the 19th. the checks began after an 80—year—old hong kong man who had been on the ship last month, fell ill with the virus. almost 4,000 passengers and crew are on board the diamond princess. 78 of the passengers are british, 61 people have been infected with coronavirus — one of those is british. the infected british passenger is believed to be on his honeymoon. david abel is a passenger on the cruise ship, his friend has tested positive for the virus and he has been separated from his wife. things are happening literally every hour, something is changing. the biggest, of course, being 41 additional passengers being found positive testing for the coronavirus. one of whom is a friend of ours, on honeymoon, who was going to be split from his wife, on honeymoon. he is going to be taken a medical facility and she will have to remain on board. an investivation by the bbc has uncovered new information about the teenager who tried to kill a 6—year—old boy who was thrown from a balcony at london's tate modern art gallery in august last year. jonty bravery, who was 17 at the time, pleaded guilty to attempted murder and will be sentenced in a fortnight. but a recording made by one of his carers shows that he'd given a warning a year before the attack at the tate that he wanted to kill someone by throwing them from a tall building. the carer has told the bbc that opportunities were missed to stop jonty bravery from carrying out his threat. our special correspondent lucy manning reports. it was a day out that changed a little boy forever. thrown from the top of the tate. news archive: a 17-year-old boy has been arrested on suspicion of attempted murder. jonty bravery admitted trying to murder the boy. now the bbc can reveal disturbing new details. the teenager, who has autism, lived in this flat in london, with round the clock care. he confessed to two carers what he was planning nearly a year before. one was so concerned, he recorded it. this isjonty bravery speaking. his carer, who we are calling 0llie, recorded jonty‘s threats. he claims bravery was at the tate alone. it was a tragedy waiting to happen. people didn't take certain precautions about what he was saying seriously enough. do you think he could and should have been stopped? 100%. ifeel like him being allowed out independently was a risk to the public. the whole situation could have been dealt with very much differently. 0pportunities missed. what happened that day at the tate was exactly asjonty bravery had threatened. and 0llie claims he told a more senior colleague and played the recording to someone else involved withjonty‘s care. they both deny this. advert: we're spencer & arlington. we are a care provider for young people and adults with disabilities... spencer & arlington were the company providing carers forjonty bravery. they boast of a highly trained team. they are rated "good" by the care regulator and are used by a number of councils. hammersmith and fulham council had legal responsibility forjonty bravery. spencer & arlington said in a statement... but they say, because of the gravity of the bbc‘s claims, they have reported this to the care regulator and the council so it can be examined by the serious case review. jayne knight is from learning disability england. she deals with complex cases like this and works with people likejonty bravery.... i'm incredulous that 12 months before, having said and been recorded, so obviously the care worker was concerned, he'd obviously heard that before, so recorded it, it obviously wasn't the first time it had been said, that a system that would usually deal with problems where people start to say that they've got that type of problem, hasn't been put into place. that should have been escalated and people should have been, professional people brought in to assess that situation. it was a rare situation but it could have been prevented if people had actually dealt with that situation from the beginning. most times there is a process in place and it's a very important process so people are trained in the process to recognise when there are problems and if you are a specialist support provider, this young man was actually getting 24—hour care, that is a specialist support provider, there is a system there and it's notjust you that makes that decision, more people do that. but there are times, and i'm involved in situations where there are times when things haven't been escalated or taken seriously enough and i think there are people therefore that would fall through the net with that if we're not careful. lucy manning sent this update from outside the tate modern... chilling to hear the voice ofjonty in that recording made nearly a year before he threw that boy off the tate gallery and it was a moment, an incident that resonated with so many people, just a family out on a day out. the mother screaming as a boy was thrown 100 feet. what we know is thatjonty bravery told two carers of his plans. one was so worried about it, so concerned that he recorded it. and that care worker says that he did tell somebody more senior in the organization and played the tape to somebody else in the organization. both of those people deny that. what isn't denied is that jonty bravery was here at the tate when he was on bail. he is accused of allegedly attacking another ca re—worker and racially abusing them and attacking a police worker as well. it's claimed by one of the co—workers 0llie thatjonty bravery was here alone. and certainly when we put that to the care company, spencer and arlington, they had no response on that. and eyewitnesses at the time say they never saw anybody with him. the key question is what was done with this information. spencer and arlington say they have no evidence that the carers told them of these plans. it's not in the records. it's not in any of the reviews. and they believe they behaved entirely properly. the council, hammersmith and fulham were legally in charge ofjonty. they sent their sympathies to the boy and his family. but they say this is for the serious care review that is investigating this. and the serious case review will look at these new allegations because the care company spencer and arlington have referred these claims to them. importantly, the boy's condition... the family have a fundraising page. they update the boy's condition on that. and initially he couldn't walk or talk. he could only smile. but he has started to make progress. he's still in pain, but he can move his limbs, but he still can't stand or talk. but he is able to eat a little mash. they're hoping he can start to drink through a straw. the key question for the family is could, because of this warning thatjonty bravery made, could their boy's agony have been averted? breaking news on uk diplomacy coming m, breaking news on uk diplomacy coming in, karen pearce has been appointed the new british ambassador to the united states, formerly the ambassador to the united nations. you will remember it can be a tricky posting, another got into all kinds of difficulties in that role when comments he made about the trump administration, rather to so obliging comments were leaked and that caused issues between washington and london. 0bviously that caused issues between washington and london. obviously a tricky post, in other respects, a us trade deal now needs to be sorted out post brexit. there are these huawei problems, the province over extradition in regard to the harry dunne case. karen pearce, an important ointment. —— important appointment. matthew smith is from california and asa matthew smith is from california and as a passenger on the cruise ship, let's get more about the experience of being on there. matthew, what it's like being on there today with the confirmation of new cases? you know, it is still fine, in fact, i think conditions are improving, because the cruise ship management essentially is getting together and getting used to what they need to do. this was an entirely new situation for them. i think some people may have been a little more frightened that there were more cases, but the way i looked at it was, 61 cases out of over 3700 people on board is not a very large percentage, so i didn't think it increase our risk that much. how long are you expecting to be effectively incarcerated in your cabin there? ray. actually, when we first had the announcement of the quarantine, which was on wednesday, seven amr time, they instructed as we we re seven amr time, they instructed as we were going to be quarantined at least 1a days. in the last 30 minutes we had another announcement from the captain for the first time saying that unless anything changes, they expect to release us on the 19th after 1a days. they expect to release us on the 19th after 14 days. so what is the tenor of your day? what is a day look like now and what will look like for the next two weeks? well, we get up to the delivery of brea kfast we get up to the delivery of breakfast and, hopefully if we don't get messed like we did one day, we have our morning coffee and brea kfast. have our morning coffee and breakfast. we spent a lot of time reading and watching television, they have increased the number of live channels and the number of on demand movies and television series, increased exponentially, so they are providing a lot of entertainment for people. we spent a lot of time on the internet connecting with friends on social media and that sort... my wife says, shopping on the internet, she is getting some of that done. we are at some point going to try and get some work done but we haven't quite reached that yet. do you have any fresh air? i know some of the cabin space into the interior of the ship and those passengers are having to be let out on a kind of rotor to give them some fresh air and exercise. we were fortunate enough to have booked one of the outside cabins, a very nice cabin with a balcony. 0ur cabins, a very nice cabin with a balcony. our view is towards the bridge here in the harbour, so we have a very good view and can go outside anytime we like. the captain's most outside anytime we like. the ca ptain's most recent outside anytime we like. the captain's most recent announcement was that we were free to use our balconies, just stay at least a metre away from the people on the other side of the dividers, and if you are near where your mask. we have access to fresh air any time, and they did announce that they think they've got the all the interior cabin is as of the night, people have a chance of outside and tomorrow they are going to start with the people thatjust have windows. so, we wish you a very good luck in the next couple of weeks or so. we hope you and your wife are going to enjoy these nerves as you are —— not going to get on each other‘s nerves as you're confined to company for so long. thank you very much. tv presenter and host of this morning phillip schofield has revealed he is gay. in an instagram post, he said "every day on this morning, i sit in awe of those we meet who have been brave and open in confronting their truth — so now it's my turn to share mine. his co—presenter holly willoughby read out the post on this morning. you won't know that what has been consuming me for the last few years, with the strength and support of my wife and daughters, i've been coming to terms with the fact that i am 93v- to terms with the fact that i am gay. this is something that has caused many heartbreaking conversations at home. i have been married to stepper nearly 27 years and we have two beautiful grown—up daughters —— married to steph. my family and tried to cheer me up and smother me with kindness and love, despite their own confusion, yet still i can't sleep and there have been some very dark moments. my inner conflict contrast with the outside world that has changed so much for the better. today, quite rightly, being gay is a reason to celebrate and be proud, yes i'm feeling pain and confusion, but that comes only from the heart i am causing to my family. steph has been incredible, i love her so much, she is the kind so i have ever met, my girls have been astonishing in their love, hugs and encouraging words of comfort. both mine and steps entire families have stunned me with their loved, instant families have stunned me with their loved, insta nt acce pta nce families have stunned me with their loved, instant acceptance and support. of course they are worried about steph but i know they will scoop both up. my friends are the best, especially holly who has been so kind and wise and who has had me asi so kind and wise and who has had me as i sobbed on her shoulder. at itv i couldn't hope to work with more wonderful and supporting teams. every day on this morning i sit in all of brave souls have confronted their truth, so now it is time for me to face mine. this may all come as something of a surprise and i understand, but only by placing this and being honest can i hope to find peace in my mind and a way forward. please be kind, especially to my family. philip. so, ithink we please be kind, especially to my family. philip. so, i think we ought to just take a breath at that point. reading that, i can hear your voice, ican hear reading that, i can hear your voice, i can hear the pain and how difficult that is for you. this is a big day and i know to something you have been living with, as you said there, any conflict for a very long time. it is out there now, how does this moment feel? it is funny, because everyone i have spoken to... you, have all been so supportive and loving and caring. and my entire family, to a person, have grabbed us and said it's ok, it's ok, we love you, we are proud of you. and every person i tell, it gets a little lighter and person i tell, it gets a little lighterand a person i tell, it gets a little lighter and a little later. at the same time, you know, i have made this decision, which is essential for me and essential for my head. sarah campbell is here. sarah, it is a very emotional statement. yeah, phillip schofield is one of the stalwarts of british television. he has been on this morning for a number of years, but way back in the 80s when he started on children's television, people will remember him in the broom cupboard, also presenting dancing on ice, this is a person who resonates with a lotta people. he is in their living rooms effectively every morning for a couple of hours and, as you can imagine, of course this is trending on social media and there are lots of comments. they are overwhelmingly supportive of phillip schofield's decision to come out as 93v schofield's decision to come out as gay this morning. stonewall, the lg bt gay this morning. stonewall, the lgbt equality charity tweeted incredibly brave and moving announcement from phillip schofield, it takes a lot of courage and is a lwa ys it takes a lot of courage and is always a hugely personal decision to be open about who you are. congratulations. the actor david valium said i'm sending all my love to phillip schofield today, i have a lwa ys to phillip schofield today, i have always held him in the highest regard and they have nothing but respect and admiration for him. let's hope we are moving towards a world where no one has to come out any more, they can just be who they are and celebrate. matt lucas, david walliams' and comedy partner, i am not surprised about phillip schofield, but joking not surprised about phillip schofield, butjoking aside, that cannot have been an easy statement to make, people, acted out —— people come out at different stages in their life, it is not an easy thing to do. i'm joined now by robbie de santos from the lgbt equality charity stonewall... thanks forjoining us. tell us more about the thoughts and considerations that go through everybody‘s mind when they have to consider this decision, this rubicon that philip hasjust consider this decision, this rubicon that philip has just crossed. consider this decision, this rubicon that philip hasjust crossedm consider this decision, this rubicon that philip hasjust crossed. it is a really difficult stage in any lgbt person's life, wanting to know that true to yourself, once you're sure of it, how you can tell people around you. many people will be surprised and shocked and you have to brace yourself for that, how the people around you, those you love and respect and rely on so much are going to respond and support you, and you're going to be worried about the reaction. 0n and you're going to be worried about the reaction. on one hand it can be done to not have to worry about some of the hate crime and discrimination that might affect you, knowing you had to face that balance of living your truth and truth and honest and authentic in the way that you live your life with some of the real risks that you might experience once you are open about who you are with those around you and those who don't know, it is a really heavy decision, no matter what age you are, no matter what stage in your life you are, no matter what. do you think it is becoming easier? because phillip schofield is 57, one can imagine that for someone of his generation, some of these dark thoughts that he has described around the decision, that that might have been very tricky as a younger person and one would hope that it is easier, possibly, for younger people today, is it? i really hope so, and what i see is someone who grew up with phillip schofield on the telly, i can remember being a young person at that time and it really wasn't easy at all. now when i look back at school today, the chance that young people and children have to explore them self and be respective to who they are is very much improved. back in the 90s, we had section 28 in practice, it was illegalfor teachers to talk about homosexuality in school, so it was a very different environment. i still think it is always challenging, and we do see a two there is still a lot of hate and division and scaremongering against lgbt hate and division and scaremongering against lg bt people. hate and division and scaremongering against lgbt people. i don't think it has come on as much as we would really like it to have done, but i think it is really great that phillip schofield feels now is the right time for him to go and live that truth. do you think it helps one big name public figures not only come out, but come out while acknowledging that they have found it difficult, that they have had dark moments, that it has made some ha rd dark moments, that it has made some hard choices for themselves and theirfamilies? hard choices for themselves and their families? absolutely, it is really important that there is dialogue about how brave you need to be and how challenging these decisions are, particularly in the public eye when you have millions of people who know who you are and have followed your life. it always slightly baffles me when people say i wish this wasn't big news, because it is big news and we have to acknowledge the bravery of people coming out, and not knowing what the reaction is going to be. the new ambassador to the united states will be carried in peers. she is currently the uk's ambassador to the un in new york. she will be the first woman in the position, taking over from the predecessor who resigned after comments about president trump and the administration were late. james, tells about this appointment. big appointment, it really matters because relations between the uk and us are not good at the moment, we disagree over iran, over huawei, over digital taxation, over the harry dunn and answer clueless affair. thisjob has been vacant for six months. after the less than diplomatic comments relates because the predecessor to resign. there have been lots of names in the frame. karyn piers was the long favourite, the foreign office choice. —— she is hugely respected, she has worked a great deal in the united states, the prime minister rates are because he got to know her when she was foreign secretary, donald trump once described her as fab, so we hope will be that she is an incredibly good diplomat i have watched for many years and she is brilliant. she has that mixture of being blunt and no—nonsense, but incredibly subtle without playing the much again. she is someone who is very frank at times but is rated by their peers. she will need all of those skills and charm, because as you say there is a lot on the table. and we need that trade agreement signed over the course of the next year. as we see in the newspapers this morning, the tensions are writ large. the confrontation over huawei between the president and the prime minister. they clearly had an angry conversation. the question is whether they can defuse that now and turn that sort of american anger into sort of disappointment. it is all about trying to maintain a dialogue, rather than allowing the trump white house just to sort of draw stumps and pull up the drawbridge, which as we have seen, it can do with some countries. in terms of the diplomatic service and their regrouping after the brexit moment, is this an appointment which send signals in that respect?” don't think so, what it does there as it opens up karen piers's alljob at the united nations. it could mean there is a bit of a diplomatic movement of chairs, because once you get one... there are lots a —— there are get one... there are lots a —— there a re lots of get one... there are lots a —— there are lots of other big jobs in play, paris is coming up, berlin, austria... this is the start of the diplomatic transfer season, you could put it that way. a new report says many people have lost faith in the ability of police to investigate crimes such as minor assaults and car crimes. the inspectorate of constabulary says that suspects were charged in less than 8% of crimes in england and wales in the year to last march and warns this is having a corrosive effect on the relationship between police and public. we've got to have the confidence of the public and i think although the report is critical and very damning, i think broadly we do have an awful lot of support from the public and certainly for the police, because i think the public completely understand that the mess that we are in and that's exactly what it is, at mess, is not at the police ‘s making. this is ten years of austerity, no investment in policing or the wider criminal justice system. which is a completely broken system now. and it needs to have considerable investment it if it's to survive. the government is talking about many more thousands of police officers, isn't it? is that going to help the situation? we need even more police officers than the ones that have been promised, we need more police staff, we need the way we investigate crime to be different, we need our infrastructure to be improved, we need better it structures and we need a better, more cohesive, wider criminal justice system which at the moment we just don't have. i've been a police officer at 27 years and i represent those officers, 120,000 officers across england and wales, constables, surgeons, inspector, chief inspector, those sorts of people who will be interacting with the public, detectives investigating crime. we didn't join policing to give a bad service but it's all about priority. i think the public would be horrified if they realised just how few police officers were available in their towns and cities to look after them and to respond to calls. so if a police officer is deployed to let's say a burglary in progress, there is an offender on the premises. but at the same time criminal damage occurs with no known offender, a window has been smashed, which is very upsetting for the victim, but we've only got so few resources, we've got to send them to the job that is the priority. i don't like that but that is the reality we've been forced to make over the last ten years. we simply don't have the resources to go around. that doesn't make me feel good as a police officer. are the public getting a great service? no, not always, they are not and i understand theirfrustration but my colleagues are as frustrated. as the breeze picks up into the afternoon, that fog will clear and we will keep that's in train across most areas. northern ireland, most of the cloud increasing and i feel spots of rain moving into northern ireland. the wind picking up later on, guts up to 50 mph, maximum temperature is around about 6—9dc. the are tonight we will see this cloud and rain, patchy rain moving its way eastward. with all that cloud around, it won't be as cold as last night, no frost into tomorrow morning. temperatures down to 6—8dc, the wind will continue to strengthen as we go through saturday, initially across northern ireland and scotland with some heavy rain on saturday. by sunday, the full force of the storm coming in. quite widespread and disruptive, damaging winds. power cuts are possible, and amber warning has been issued for the four south—east of england. more details just before 12 o'clock. hello, this is bbc newsroom live. the headlines: a british national is confirmed as one of 61 cruise ship passengers who have caught coronavirus. the ship is quarantined offjapan with almost 4,000 people on board. the case of a teenager who threw a young boy off the balcony of the tate gallery is being reviewed, after the bbc obtained a recording of him telling carers about his plans to kill a year before. an official report says the public are not telling police about some crimes because so many offenders are never brought to justice. shamima begum, who travelled to syria to join the so—called islamic state, has lost the first stage of a legal challenge against the decision to strip her of her british citizenship. sport now and a full round up from the bbc sport centre. good morning. england's cricketers can level the one day series against south africa today, they are in durban but rain has delayed the start of play, and the forecast isn't good. england lost the first one—dayer by seven wickets in capetown. player of the match anya shrubsole said it wasn't one of the prettiest games of cricket but they beat india by four wickets in melbourne to keep their t20 tri—series hopes alive. after a great display from the bowlers, england were chasing 124 for victory and nat sivver helped them on their way with a half—century with lauren winfield hitting the winning runs, as they made it with seven balls to spare. if australia beat india tomorrow, we'll have an england—australia final next week no matter what happens when england face the hosts on sunday. india cricket legend sachin tendulkar is in australia for sunday's bushfire relief game "the big appeal" in melbourne. and after spending part of his early career in australia, he said he just wanted to help. i'm so happy that i am here and in whatever possible way to support the cause and raise money. australia has a lwa ys cause and raise money. australia has always been dear to me because in 1991 as an 18—year—old i remember coming here and i spent almost four months here and i almost had an aussie accent but the competitive cricket that i played here at the age of 18 helped me a lot in my career so i have a special feeling for australia. the british heavyweight title fight between daniel dubois withjoejoyce, which could be a world title eliminator, will be at the 02 arena in london on the 11th of april. both fighters are undefeated — dubois won the title injuly and he's seen as one of british boxing's hottest prospects, with 14 wins — 13 via knockout. and after taking silver at the 2016 rio 0lympics, joyce has reeled off 10 straight wins, nine via stoppage. the west ham women's captain gilly flaherty has been speaking to the bbc about her struggles with mental health. she revealed that she attempted to take her own life 11 years ago as she came to terms with her sexuality. she hopes that speaking out, will get others to talk. i will never go down that road again andi i will never go down that road again and i am i will never go down that road again andiama i will never go down that road again and i am a lot stronger, never in the 11 years since then have i once considered taking my life again. i know now that if i went back and felt that way i would talk to my mum and dad, i talk to them about everything, my sister about everything, my sister about everything my partner about everything, you need to find that person. whether it is your close family and friends or someone you feel comfortable talking to but you have to talk. the former england netballer tamsin greenway is the new head coach of scotland. greenway played for england more than 10 years, before becoming director of wasps netball. her first task will be taking the scottish thistles into the europe open championship against england, wales and northern ireland in glasgow this august. wales head coach wayne pivac says their six nations game against ireland tomorrow will be the biggest test of his coaching career. they began the defence of their title with a thumping victory over italy, winning by 42 points to nil but wales haven't beaten the irish in dublin in this competition for 10 years. it will be a massive step up in what we have had so far, i think we have been very fortunate that we had the game into line a few things out and now we go up against a challenge on their back yard so i think it is built nicely and this will be the real test so far to see where we are out and how much work we have to do to be able to play the game under pressure that we want to be able to play. another huge six nations weekend coming up. i will be back in the next hour. in china, there's growing anger over the death of a chinese doctor who tried to warn other medics about the coronavirus in december. li wenliang contracted the illness while treating patients in wuhan. he was investigated for "spreading rumours." there's been an intense outpouring of grief on chinese social media. stephanie hegarty from bbc world service has been working with bbc chinese on this story, shejoins me now in the studio. what are people saying? almost unprecedented the level of grief thatis unprecedented the level of grief that is being expressed on social media and we can see that the government are definitely making an effort to delete these posts but it seems like they can't keep up. there have been various hashtags which have been various hashtags which have emerged and one is that we want freedom of speech which is quite a statement in the context of china. mostly it is anger that this happened, anger that this man was punished for speaking out, doing the right thing and grief of course. and that plays in to a growing sense in a china that they might have been a moment before china announced a public health emergency and before 5 million people left wuhan to travel for the lunar new year holiday when authorities could have, if they had decided to announce the emergency sooner, could have got on top of this and that was something i suppose that li wenliang was saying? yes, he shared a post on a messaging app with a group of other doctors and was saying that he had seen what he thought was a sars diagnosed in his hospital and he wasjust he thought was a sars diagnosed in his hospital and he was just sharing the message to warn other doctors to wear protective clothing and to be safe and to maybe one of friends and family but then three days later he was accused of causing panic and making false statements so there was clearly a suppression of information in those early days and i think a lot of the anger now is linked to the fact that if they could suppress fa cts the fact that if they could suppress facts then then what other facts could be being suppressed now. facts then then what other facts could be being suppressed nowm feeds into a climate of distrust. and a climate of fear. it's interesting because it is a reminder of sars which hit china very badly and caused globally nearly 800 deaths and we are not quite at that point yet with coronavirus but at the time china said it never again, that it would always be upfront on these public health issues pulled up and china did put certain things into place after sars, before they have a system where you had to write to the central government to report outbreaks like this but clearly part of the problem here is this sense of fear that local officials have to report things to the central authority. we know that once this did get up as far as the central authority, the reaction was fairly fast but it was the moment before where it seems that the big problem was. going back to li wenliang. he was. going back to li wenliang. he was a 34—year—old, do we know of any underlying health issues that he had because of course what has been repeated over and over again about this coronavirus is that it affects, it is fatal for this coronavirus is that it affects, it is fatalfor older this coronavirus is that it affects, it is fatal for older people who have underlying health conditions but he is not older and does he have underlying health issues because my coat not as far as we have heard but we do know that he was working very ha rd we do know that he was working very hard and we have heard of reports of doctors who are overworked and stressed and that could affect their immune system. in terms of him having any issues before, as far as we know it is a no. it is a very sad case and not only did he have a wife and child but his wife was pregnant with their second child, presumably for the authorities a very delicate moment around his death but also delicate and difficult for them if she comes out and says something angry about freedom of speech and about what happened to him? his father has spoken to the bbc chinese service and said that he asked the government to take back the letter. he would like his son to be issued an apology. thank you very much. just before we leave the subject we're going to look at some live pictures coming in from the streets of hong kong and as can see, that is effectively becoming a shrine to doctor li wenliang and people bringing flowers and a big banner in memory of him and this is an issue for people, not just memory of him and this is an issue for people, notjust across mainland china and hong kong but across the world. the horror that someone who spoke truth to power and had the courage to challenge and to say, we think we have a problem here, that somebody like that could then be intimidated by the police, made to signa intimidated by the police, made to sign a self—criticism to acknowledge that he had made a mistake by so—called spreading rumours and obviously what he spread only within a small group of his medical collea g u es a small group of his medical colleagues but what he spread was not a rumour at all but a very real concern about something which has of course now had a huge impact for tens of millions across china who remain effectively under lockdown. of course for people across the globe and has cost many lives so thatis globe and has cost many lives so that is the scene in hong kong. shamima begum, the east london school girl who ran off to join so—called islamic state, has lost the first stage of her appeal against having her british citizenship stripped. the special immigration appeals commission, which hears national security cases, said that the 20—year—old could be stripped of her nationality because she had not been left stateless. siac said she could turn instead to bangladesh for citizenship. the government has been warned it could run out of prison places in two years because of tougher sentencing measures and a drive to recruit 20,000 police officers. in a highly—critical report, the spending watchdog, the national audit office, says the prison service, which is an agency of the ministry ofjustice, has "failed" to provide safe, secure and decentjails across england and wales. there are currently more than 83,000 people locked up and the number is forecast to increase. millions of british households will see a reduction in their energy bills from this april, after the regulator brings in better price caps. 0fgem says 15 million households will benefit. right now,over half of households about 11 million are on default tariffs, meaning they haven't shopped around and are relying on regulation to make sure they don't pay too much. at the moment if you're a dualfuel customer on a standard variable tariff, using a typical amount of energy, and you pay by direct debit, you'll pay about £1,179 a year. but today the energy regulator 0fgem has announced the new cap which will come in from the 1st of april — it means an average bill could go down by £17 to £1,162. although most will see the cap change as a good thing for consumers, there are concerns they could mislead people into thinking they're getting a good deal if they stay with their current provider. when in reality, a lot of people could save significantly more by switching. the average price among the 20 cheapest tariffs is more like £855 at the moment. mary starks is the executive director of 0fgem, she spoke to bbc breakfast about the cap. the cap is there to guarantee that nobody is ever overcharged for their energy so it guarantees that customers will pay a fair price and will be protected and will save money but it remains true that you can save even more money by going out into the market and shopping around for the best deal. is there a danger therefore that we lull people into a false sense of security because they think 0fgem has my back, they have caps my bill, i won't pay more than that level when actually they should be switching on toa actually they should be switching on to a cheaper deal? i think the sense of security is not false, 0fgem does have your back, it does guarantee a fair price for energy but at the moment the market is really competitive, the rate a lot of newer suppliers who really want your business and there are some very good deals out there and it is a good deals out there and it is a good time to be a customer in this market. how is it a fair deal when you could save £300 by doing a bit of paperwork and moving?m you could save £300 by doing a bit of paperwork and moving? it is a fair deal because it reflects the underlying costs of supplying energy. at any time, some suppliers are able to offer lower costs either because they have got a lower cost reserve , because they have got a lower cost reserve, they are doing something different with that wholesale prices, so it is always worth looking on the market but if you don't want to switch we haven't got the time, you can be sure that you are getting a fair deal on the cap tariff. as you mentioned, energy firms can clearly afford to offer cheaper deals so should your focus not be on getting more people onto those cheaper deals because as we touched on, 11 million households still on the most expensive tariff? absolutely and i think we would encourage anybody who can to have a look around, talk to your supplier about getting onto their best tariff, 0fgem are doing a number of things to make it quicker and easier to switch so that process should be as straightforward as it possibly can. people should absolutely be shopping around in the market but there are some people who for whatever reason aren't quite up to that and the price cap guarantees they won't be ripped off. back to that story now on a new report, which says many people have lost faith in the ability of police to investigate crimes such as minor assaults and car crimes. the inspectorate of constabulary says that suspects were charged in less than eight per cent of crimes in england and wales in the year to last march and warns this is having a corrosive effect on the relationship between police and public. one person who can talk about her own poor experience is charlotte foster, and we're speaking to her now. what happened to you? the first incident was in june what happened to you? the first incident was injune 2016 and i was ona incident was injune 2016 and i was on a run down a psychopath and it was a sunny afternoon and there were four young teenagers —— cycle path. i realised that they were touching me inappropriately which i think is the kindest way of saying it. they ran off and it was nothing worse than grabbing and i rang the police and they were great to start with and they were great to start with and took a statement from me but then weeks later ijust got the letter saying, sorry, we can't do anything about this and a leaflet from victims form and ijust felt like i had wasted their time a bit because obviously nothing was done and it wasn't a massive crime or anything terrible and then it was february last year, is back out on another run and i had stopped to check my e—mails because i run my own business and i never stop checking my e—mails and i sort of realised there was someone standing behind me and turned around and there was a man standing behind me and the politest way of putting it was he had his hand down his trousers at that time so obviously i ran away again but i didn't ring the police at that time because i just didn't see the point in reporting it because i thought nothing would happen, what could i do? there was no one else around or no cameras so what was the point. i carried on with everything and then 0ctober last year the police actually put out on their twitter feed a picture of this man asking for help in relation to other incidents of a similar nature that they wanted help with which meant i saw that and i reported what had happened to me backin reported what had happened to me back in february last year and i just felt really guilty that i hadn't reported it because i felt that i could have maybe stopped it from happening again so in both incidents ijust from happening again so in both incidents i just felt from happening again so in both incidents ijust felt really guilty about the choice i made so that is my story. so are you in one of the statistics that says public loses faith in police? absolutely. i have a lot of sympathy for the police on the ground, they are working really ha rd the ground, they are working really hard but there are only so many people in the police force and only so many hours in the day. i know again if something like that happened i probably wouldn't do anything about it even though i felt that sense of guilt that i should have reported the second incident because when i did report the incident to them and i said i actually have some information about this man they said can you put it on facebook messenger so i gave them all the information and i had lots because i had e—mailed my running clu b because i had e—mailed my running club at the time to say you might wa nt to club at the time to say you might want to one other people going out ona want to one other people going out on a run that this happened so i saidi on a run that this happened so i said i have the gps and all i got was, can we have a contact number? and they said it would be locked so ididn't and they said it would be locked so i didn't feel like i had achieved much by reporting it anyway so i don't think i would do much any more. it's depressing but thank you for telling us your story. the bbc have spokent to staffordshire police about the case, they provided us with a statement. a gp who molested women at his surgery has been given three life sentences with a minimum term of 15 years at the old bailey after being convicted of 90 sex offences

correspondent helena wilkinson is at the old bailey. tell us more. this was a gp in east london, 50—year—old manish shah. he was a well respected gp he was very much liked by his patients but behind the scenes he was sexually assaulting some of his female patients over a five year period. thejudge today patients over a five year period. the judge today sentenced him as you say to three life sentences, a minimum term of 15 years, some of his victims were here in court to hear the sentence being laid out against him and what the judge told him in court was that he was a master of deception who abused his position of power. some of the victims who he sexually assaulted, one of them, the youngest, read out a statement in court and told the court how she found it very difficult to trust people, especially people who were close to her after she was sexually assaulted by her gp. her after she was sexually assaulted by hergp. in her after she was sexually assaulted by her gp. in particular, she finds it difficult to have relationships, she spoke about her boyfriend and her dad and the prosecution in this case says that was a running theme with all these victims and the gp had a huge impact on the victims. as you say, what he did was he carried out unnecessary intrusive medical examinations on 24 of his female patients and carried out 90 sexual assaults over a five year period. in sentencing, thejudge assaults over a five year period. in sentencing, the judge also said that he had caused incalculable harm and there were far reaching consequences for the women that he

you join me at a construction site for what will be the tallest office block in the uk outside of london and we are here to mark national apprenticeship week, an opportunity for businesses to celebrate the success and diversity of apprenticeship schemes. the theme of the week is to look beyond, encouraging young people, parents, teachers and employers to look beyond preconceptions about the kind ofjobs and beyond preconceptions about the kind of jobs and opportunities beyond preconceptions about the kind ofjobs and opportunities available to people who choose to go down the friendship scheme. two people who know all about that are dave ellis and paul. dave, ifi know all about that are dave ellis and paul. dave, if i can start with you, how important are apprentices to the construction industry? incredibly important, we need to attract the best talent into a modern and exciting industry whoever those people are and wherever they come from city apprenticeship programme is doing just that for us. we often talk about a skills shortage in the construction industry, how do you go about making sure that you get the best people, the right people to join your scheme? simply by working with the providers and designing the very best programme we can to attract the best programme we can to attract the best talent. 0ur programme looks at a mix of on the job training best talent. 0ur programme looks at a mix of on thejob training and couege a mix of on thejob training and college learning in block release great opportunity for 18—year—olds tojoin our industry. great opportunity for 18—year—olds to join our industry. and you also offer a proper salary and the opportunity for it to turn into a degree? yes, potentially at the end of the programme and no student debt which is a great attraction to young people at the moment. yes, a really great attraction. paul, the onus on the academic side is to make sure that what you are teaching students in the classroom is then applicable to the employer to make sure that they get value for money at the end of the day? absolutely and just to confirm what they've said, we have to make sure there is a range of work that is fit for purpose, that we can make clear links with young people right up to middle age because it is notjust 18—year—olds, we trying to target all age groups to come as apprentices pulled up the range of work is important. big sites like this enable all the learners to get a balanced approach of what their career parts can be and it is a good way to start their careers, especially now that people in their205 or305 careers, especially now that people in their 205 or 305 have career5, especially now that people in their 205 or 305 have been out of education for ten or 15 years and they want a change of direction as they want a change of direction as the colleges and the positions we offer here are right from introduction 5ix offer here are right from introduction six week cour5e5 offer here are right from introduction six week courses or two—year programmes and levels one, two, three, four and five and it is a great opportunity for people to be involved in an apprenticeship now. as you say, for anybody because dave, how diverse now is the pool of people you are finding and wanting to ta ke people you are finding and wanting to take up your apprenticeship scheme? great progress being made. this year, 26% of our intake for apprentices were within and that has moved on in the programmes i think we are moving to more diverse work for us. that is great to hear. how are you finding the take up for your friendship scheme? yes, we have 74 apprentices employed directly at the moment and we have another 171 on our large moment and we have another 171 on ourlarge birmingham moment and we have another 171 on our large birmingham projects. this year we have had a 700 applicants for the 2020 intake so it is becoming increasingly popular which is great news. briefly paul, is that a similar experience for you? yes, we have 416 apprentices currently on the programme and we offer free introduction cour5e5 the programme and we offer free introduction courses which run for 5ix introduction courses which run for six weeks to introduce people to particular indu5trie5 six weeks to introduce people to particular industries such as this andl particular industries such as this and i think as a group we have 1500 apprentices which is amazing. great to hear, many thanks for talking to us. we will be here all day talking about national friendship scheme but now it is time for the weather. sunshine across the uk at the moment but things are changing as we go into the weekend. that is the lovely blue sky and the scottish borders but you may have heard, we have been talking about it for much of this week, this weekend, storm ciara. there may be gusts of 70 to 80 mph and may be more. we'll continue with that sunshine through the rest of the day on england and wales into scotland, a bit more cloud in northern ireland and rain moving in, temperatures about five to nine celsius was not the breeze picks up on the north—west and that is the sign of things to come. the rain will continue to move its way eastwards overnight service of rain for many of us into tomorrow morning but with all that cloud and that rain it won't be as cold as last night, temperatures staying up at about six, seven, eight celsius but as we going to the weekend we will start to see some impacts from wind and rain. storm ciara will move in on sunday. before that we will still have some strong winds, by sunday damaging winds and travel disruption is likely and there could be some power cuts. during saturday we have the first weather system moving its way to the south—east and then i will be some clear skies and then we are looking at this where the front and its weather system moving and which is ahead of storm ciara and that will ring some heavy rain into scotla nd that will ring some heavy rain into scotland and northern ireland, flooding possible in places and some gales developing with some hill snow. further south in the east it will be largely dry. not a bad day for many parts of england and wales with sunshine, temperatures seven to nine celsius. that weather system will move through and as we get into sunday, this is storm ciara, this area of low pressure here which will move its way and look how the isobars get closer together so whilst we will have some heavy rainfall at moving its way south and east, there could be some localised flooding impact with that, strong winds, particularly associated with that cold front as it moves down towards the south—east, quite widely across the uk looking at gusts of 60, 70 five miles per hour. impacts are expected widely, travel disruption likely but it is down was the south—east by the met office has issued the second highest warning, an amberwarning. that issued the second

august last year. jonty bravery, who was 17 at the time, pleaded guilty to attempted murder and will be sentenced in a fortnight. but a recording made by one of his carers shows that he'd given a warning a year before the attack at the tate that he wanted to kill someone by throwing them from a tall building. the carer has told the bbc that opportunities were missed to stop jonty bravery from carrying out his threat. our special correspondent lucy manning reports. it was a day out that changed a little boy forever. thrown from the top of the tate. news archive: a 17-year-old boy has been arrested on suspicion of attempted murder. jonty bravery admitted trying to murder the boy. now the bbc can reveal disturbing new details. the teenager, who has autism, lived in this flat in london, with round the clock care. he confessed to two carers what he was planning nearly a year before. one was so concerned, he recorded it. this isjonty bravery speaking. his carer, who we are calling 0llie, recorded jonty‘s threats. he claims bravery was at the tate alone. it was a tragedy waiting to happen. people didn't take certain precautions about what he was saying seriously enough. do you think he could and should have been stopped? 100%. ifeel like him being allowed out independently was a risk to the public. the whole situation could have been dealt with very much differently. 0pportunities missed. what happened that day at the tate was exactly asjonty bravery had threatened. 0llie claims he told a more senior colleague and played the recording to someone else involved withjonty‘s care. they both deny this. advert: we're spencer & arlington. we are a care provider for young people and adults with disabilities... spencer & arlington were the company providing carers forjonty bravery. they boast of a highly trained team. they are rated "good" by the care regulator and are used by a number of councils. hammersmith and fulham council had legal responsibility forjonty bravery. spencer & arlington said in a statement... but they say, because of the gravity of the bbc‘s claims, they have reported this to the care regulator and the council so it can be examined by the serious case review. tv presenter and host of this morning phillip schofield has revealed he is gay. in an instagram post, he said "every day on this morning, i sit in awe of those we meet who have been brave and open in confronting their truth — so now it's my turn to share mine". he spoke to his this morning co—presenter holly willoughby about how it felt to finally come to terms with who he was. it is funny, because everyone i have spoken to... you... ..have all been so supportive and loving and caring. and my entire family, to a person, have grabbed us and said it's ok, it's ok, we love you, we are proud of you. and every person i tell, it gets a little lighter and a little lighter. at the same time, you know, i have made this decision, which is essential for me and essential for my head. that is principally the reason i have done this. of course i am really very aware that steph and the girls at home watching this, we are altogether, we have spent a lot of time together, we spent a lot of time together, we spent a lot of time together, we spent a lot of time together obviously and they have been supporting us as we got to this moment, because we all knew it was coming. i feel a little later, but i also am very aware that there is no question that it causes pain and it causes upset. you have been very open and honest was theft all the way through this. yeah, i have no secrets, we've never had any secrets. it was tough, this is not something that has happened quickly, i have had to deal with this in my head for quite some time. we have gone through this together, we have been honest and we have been open and steph, as i said, i can't write in any statement what i feel about that woman. she is amazing. she is amazing, incredible. there is no one in my life who would have supported me the way, as a wife, the way she has supported me. she is astonishing, literally astonishing. with me me now is the entertainment journalist caroline frost... a surprise to many people, a moving brief statement. yes, i was very moved watching us again because these people are very public figures, we see them on our tv screens day in and day out, of course you don't take into account that sometimes things are not what they appear, that huge amount of personal turmoil that is going on behind the scenes, and i think we saw behind those walls today with mac speaking so openly about not just his own conflict, but the weight that has to have been shared by his family —— phillip schofield. and the support and love they have shown him through what would have been a tough and difficult time for anyfamily been a tough and difficult time for any family going to this. some young people will look at that statement and say, he is 57, does it take that long? but of course we are living in a different era from now, 20—year—olds today and the point in time when phillip schofield was 20 yea rs time when phillip schofield was 20 years old. exactly, you get these young entertainers, film stars, television pretences, they get to deferment their terms, whatever their sexuality, it doesn't matter, it is their world and they are living their life through it. very different story 20—30 years ago, when phillip schofield first came into the public eye. probably following advice, perhaps that george michael was tall, don't come out as it will ruin your following. lots have been out for years that we now know our gay and happy. this is a man having to catch up with a honesty that is so afforded to entertainers. younger clearly it is an uphill battle, you saw that with the struggle to articulate, but what came across the most was the relief to lift that burden. he talked about sitting on the sofa day in and day out for this morning, talking to people, quite a confessional show, lots of trades and stories and private battle is being shared, i can imagine that the juxtaposition between hearing all of that and carrying your own burden mustjust become overwhelming. i hope you feels a sense of relief today. all the response has been very positive. yes, who's the person who is going to stand up and see this is outrageous? this is a story for him and his family and, really, the only thing anybody in the public eye can do is lend your support and perhaps this is a moment of opportunity and inspiration, that someone as successful and wealthy and well loved and as established as a particular type of person, if they can break out, then perhaps other people can as well. more on today's main stories coming up on newsroom live here on the bbc news channel, but now we say goodbye to viewers on bbc two. let's pick up the point caroline ray is there about an example set for other people in the same situation. joe nellist is from the lgbt foundation — hejoins me now from our salford studio... what is the response from an organisation like yourself and the experience you have had in life to this announcement? i feel the announcement today was incredibly brave and moving, so thank you for that with us today. i think his experiences will not be unique, there will be many out there who have gone through similar experiences. we know that there are many lg bt people experiences. we know that there are many lgbt people aged 55 plus who are ardent able to live their lives fully out and open. —— ardent in table two. a recent survey that receives hundreds of thousands of responses showed that lgbt people aged 55—65, 12% of those were unable to share their sexual orientation with the ones they love. what is it do you think that holds people back? we heard phillip schofield talking about the many difficult dark moments in coming to this decision and kind of getting himself to the point of making the statement. what is it, do you think, in that age group that is the thing that most holds people back?” group that is the thing that most holds people back? i think everybody‘s experiences are unique, so it wouldn't be wise to speak broadly, but some of the experiences of people, particularly of philips age, are related to going up any time when homosexuality was either criminalised or something you couldn't talk about, so carrying that sort of stigma with them throughout their lives means that many feel unable to come out until later in life. so, the discussion we we re later in life. so, the discussion we were just having, whether it is different or much easier for people of younger generations, is that a fair assessment or do we need to be careful not to be blase? fair assessment or do we need to be careful not to be blase ?” fair assessment or do we need to be careful not to be blase? i wouldn't say that is a fair assessment, we obviously live on in a society with afairamount more obviously live on in a society with a fair amount more recourse, eve ryo ne a fair amount more recourse, everyone has a unique experience and anyone out there today who are struggling to come out or speak openly about their sexual orientation or their gender identity, their experience and troubles in doing that aren't any less valid because they live in 2020 rather than in 1970. what i would say is that if anybody out there is struggling to speak about this with the ones around them, there are organisations out there that can support them. lgbt foundation has a fantastic helpline staffed by staff and volunteers that people can call, you can speak to us and we can help you can speak to us and we can help you on that journey. thank you so much for helping us understand the issue, i know that you will be very reassuring to people to know that your organisation are there to talk to. the headlines on bbc news... a british national is one of 61 cruise ship passengers diagnosed with coronavirus. the ship is

reality was fought on that, she had three children with a dutch combat fighter and all of them have died in appalling circumstances, she is now marooned ina circumstances, she is now marooned in a northern syrian refugee camp and says she wants to come home. after she did a series of media interviews last year, one of them with the bbc‘s quentin somerville, the home secretary basely said you're not coming back, stripped of her door on national security grounds. her lawyers are trying to get as a return, saying that this young woman is to be brought back to safety. the new story today is that the special immigration appeals commission, which looks at these cases, has said for this preliminary stage, yet. this is quite complicated. the home secretary's grounds are based on what she is told, or what sajid javid at the time was told by m15 about the intelligence of shamima begum on the network she was in. people are roman —— mac it is said she can't theoretically apply for bangladeshi citizenship and the uk is within its rights to tear up her british nationality, throw that away. she is not left stateless, she can apply to bangladesh for a passport so she is not left stateless. her lawyers had also said, if you leave her in these camps, you are exposing her to inhumane treatment, she could get murdered, she could get hanged in bangladesh she goes there. they are saying this is appalling, you have to let you come home, that has been thrown out as well. the court has said that even though she is finding it difficult to get proper instructions to her lawyers and to represent yourself, and certainly it is impossible to take part in the proceedings in london, they are saying that is not a bar to a fair trial, she has made her own bed by going out there in the first place and they say it is not their problem. what will happen now is her loyal is will appeal, they say this is baffling so it will go on and on and on. the court has to start looking at the case to decide whether she is a genuine terrorist threat to the uk, and that is the real meat of this, that will come next year or so. a new report says many people have lost faith in the ability of police to investigate crimes such as minor assaults and car crimes. the inspectorate of constabulary says that suspects were charged in less than 8% of crimes in england and wales in the year to last march and warns this is having a corrosive effect on the relationship between police and public. i've been speaking to matt parr, from her majesty's inspectorate of constabulary. this is a third batch of reports we've issued in a series covering the whole of england, wales. we've now completed that cycle. we've got a pretty good picture of policing across england, wales. and i've got to say in many cases we're really quite impressed with the progress forces are making in efficiency and effectiveness. there has been some significant improvements, but i think the highlight of what we're saying here is that the pressure on policing, and that comes from two cases really, first of all, the well—recognised austerity that they've been under for the last few years, but also increase in the volume and complexity of crime. those two pressures are really showing now and the service victims are getting across the country is both patchy and, in our view, at too low a level. and as a response to that low service, the public are, what, giving up theirfaith in the police? well, i think the there are some worrying figures. we highlight these in our report. the overall number of people brought to justice for crimes is down to about 8%. so only about 8% of crimes now if someone brought to court. and secondly, the number of crimes where the victim doesn't report or thenjust gives up on it because it's doesn't support the prosecution any more has risen to almost a quarter. those are both trends are going in the wrong direction. and i suppose that's partly about the justice system as well as about the police? the conviction rate is something that the police can't entirely control? yeah, i think that's a fair point. and it's keen to i'm keen to make the point here that we're not blaming the police necessarily for this. there are some variations in the performance of forces. of course there are. but in general, i think policing is going in the right direction. it's just really struggling to cope with this volume. an example... we see forces that are really quite short of detectives. if you haven't got the right number of detectives and you haven't got the right number of investigators, you haven't got the right supervision of investigations, so too many of these crimes, which is too easy to dismiss as trivial, i mean, they really matter to people, too many of these crimes are going not properly investigated and are not achieving the outcomes we'd all like to see. and when i say we'd all like to see, that absolutely includes all the police officers i've ever met who are as uncomfortable with these figures as we are as an inspectorate. presumably that turns into a vicious cycle where if there's not detection, not conviction, no chance of punishment, and then it's an incentive to carry on committing crimes. well, i wouldn't want to say that, but it's an obvious conclusion to draw. i mean, i think we've got to recognize, i think the government is on top of this. they've seen this. the police budgets have now started to increase again. there's been a lot of publicity about the 20,000 new officers. i don't think there's a single person in policing that doesn't welcome both of those. and so do you have recommendations distinct from the government putting more money in? we've got a number of recommendations for all sorts of forces, and they're about quality of investigations, the way they deal with vulnerable people, the way they plan their budget. so each individualforce will have a load of recommendations. i think what we're doing overall in this batch of reports is just drawing attention to how much pressure the police are under. and do you have a message for the public if they are the victim of crime or know someone who is the victim of crime on reporting? yeah, you should absolutely report it. i don't think if people don't report crimes, no matter how they are dealt with afterwards, but if you don't report crimes then the police simply don't get a full picture of what's going on in their area. they can't then plan for the future. they can't plan what sort of workforce they need and they can't get more efficient or more effective in the future. it has been relatively quiet over the last few days, but that is set to change at the weekend. storm kero is on the way, bringing an extremely strong one. some fog in the central and eastern areas, that will clear up and eastern areas, that will clear up with some sunshine for england and wales and up into scotland's —— storm ciara. maximum temperature of about 5—9dc after that rather frosty start to the day. the one will pick up start to the day. the one will pick up in the north and west later on today, and through tonight, the wind will continue to strengthen, rain moving its way eastward. 0vernight temperatures won't fall much, for — 10 celsius, much milder than it was last night. throughout saturday the wind will continue to strengthen. in two sundays where we will see the biggest impact of store ciara. damage and destruction really likely, with some power cuts possible. stay tuned to the forecast. hello this is bbc newsroom live. the headlines: a gp who committed dozens of sex offences against former patients at his surgery has been given three life sentences with a minimum term of 15 years. a british national on board a quarantined ship injapan has tested positive for coronavirus. so far 61 passengers have taken ill. the case of a teenager who threw a young boy off the balcony of the tate gallery is being reviewed, after the bbc obtained a recording of him telling carers about his plans to kill a year before. karen pierce will be britain's new ambassador to washington — she's currently ambassador to the un. shamima begum, the east london school girl who ran off to join so—called islamic state, has lost the first stage of her appeal against having her british citizenship stripped. let's return to one of our main stories today, coronavirus, in china, there's growing anger over the death of a chinese doctor who tried to warn other medics about the coronavirus in december. li wenliang contracted the illness while treating patients in wuhan. he was investigated for "spreading rumours." there's been an intense outpouring of grief on chinese social media. howard zhang is the head of bbc chinese and joins me now. i'm not surprised there has been an outpouring because it isjust i'm not surprised there has been an outpouring because it is just so sad that this poor doctor who tried his best to speak truth to power and get people to pay attention, not only did they send police round to give him a hard time but now he has died. i was him a hard time but now he has died. iwasa him a hard time but now he has died. i was a bit surprised at the level of reaction, i have to honest because we have been through the trade boards, the hong kong protests and many events this year but this one person's death triggered 7000 comments, that is lint level. —— the trade wars. i've seen people have never commented on chinese social media coming in and expressing grief as well as disbelief in what can happen to such a decent person and thatis happen to such a decent person and that is the overall sense, it is overwhelming chinese social media. do you think the scale of this reaction on social media is in a way because the authorities have decided to allow people to vent a bit because they know feelings are running high or do you think it is because people just don't care what the authorities think about it?l little bit of both i think. even the global times which many would say, communist party newspaper, they online are posting things, asking questions, so that is the level that is now being seen. lots of people who normally do not even participate in any social online activity are now posting things and expressing their anger. just tell us a bit more about what the anger exactly is? what does it focus on? it focuses on a decent truth telling person being silenced and the result of that is definitely lost time. if his advice or warning was at least listened to, possibly they would have saved a week or two and that first couple of weeks in hindsight one day will be proven crucial. our people during a direct link between that kind of cover—up attempt and... 0r direct link between that kind of cover—up attempt and... or to put it more politely, an unwillingness to be the bearer of bad news if you are the local officials and chinese authorities one—party system, are they drawing that's linked? many are but many are still a bit more conservative in their wedding but most people are saying, if a society does not allow any voice, even telling the truth than the society is actually ill. —— conservative in their wording. thanks for talking to us. the new ambassador to the united states will be karen pierce. ms pierce is currently the uk's ambassador to the un in new york and will be the first woman to serve in the position. she will take over from sir kim darroch who resigned last summer after comments he made about the president and his government were leaked. 0ur diplomatic correspondent, james landale, has been giving me more details. this job has been vacant for six months since sir kim darroch resigned during that row about his less than diplomatic private comments that were leaked so this is a job that the british that the british government have been trying to fill for a long time. there have been lots of names in the frame, karen pierce was the long favourite, the foreign office choice. she joined the foreign office in 1981, she has worked pretty much everywhere, she is hugely respected, she has worked a great deal in the united states. the prime minister rates her because he got to know her when she was foreign secretary. donald trump reportedly once described her as fab so i think the hope will be that she will be a solid... magic dust over this. no but she is an incredibly good diplomat and i have watched for many years and she is brilliant, she gets that mixture of being blunt and no nonsense but also incredibly subtle about playing diplomatic so i think she is somebody who, you know, is very frank at times but is liked and rated by her peers. well, she will need all of those skills and all of that charm because as you say, there is a lot on the table and not least that trade agreement which we as a country will be hoping to sign over the course of the next year. yes, that is the huge task and as we see in this mornings newspapers tensions are at large, this conversation that the prime minister and the president had over the huawei decision. my own sources say that the description of... apocalyptic... apoplectic rather was slightly over doing it but they clearly had an angry conversation and the question is whether they can diffuse that now and turn that sort of american anger into that sort of disappointment so it is all about trying to maintain a dialogue rather than allowing the trump white house to just sort of draw stumps and pull up the drawbridge which it can do. and just in terms of the diplomatic service and their regrouping after the brexit moment, is this an appointment which sends signals in that respect? i don't think so. what it does do is it opens up karen pierce's old job at the un. there has been some speculation for example the current british ambassador to brussels might be a candidate for that particularjob so it could mean there is a bit of a sort of diplomatic movement of chairs because once you get one movement there are lots of other big jobs in play, paris is coming up, berlin, austria, there's going to be, i think this is the start of the diplomatic transfer season, put it that way. more now on our lead story: the gp handed three life sentences with a minimum term of 15 years for molesting women in his surgery. in the last few minutes detective superintendent tara mcgovern has been speaking to our correspondent helena wilkinson outside court. he has been sentenced to life imprisonment and he will not be eligible for consideration for the role for 15 years so at that stage they will make itjudgment as to whether he is safe to be released. thejudge in her sentencing remarks said he was a master of deception, what is, in your view, having investigated this case for a long time, how would you sum up the true character of this man? he placed himself in a busy surgery as a gp and he accessed vulnerable women and preyed on their vulnerabilities so that he could carry out unnecessary clinical examinations for his own sexual gratification. he clearly has caused some significant harm to these women who have come forward and spoken to us and he has betrayed the trust that they have placed in him as their doctor. tell us more about the impact on his victims. many of these women are now facing anxiety, panic attacks, they have lost their trust in the medical profession and some of them are now not going to have medical procedures that they require because they are so concerned and they have little trust in doctors that they come across. this was a long investigation for you, four years or so, why is it taken so long? it has been extremely complex. we have had a number of victims, we have spoken to over 130 victims, we have taken dozens to over 130 victims, we have taken d oze ns of to over 130 victims, we have taken dozens of statements and we have sought lots of advice from experts during that time so yes, the victims in this case not only have demonstrated dignity and courage but they have also been extremely patient as we have been progressing this investigation supported by nhs england. what can you say today for people to be reassured going to their doctor, hearing this case today, can they be? i would say this case is extremely rare and his behaviour was absolutely unacceptable. he was kissing and cuddling and carrying out intrusive examinations that were totally unnecessary but it is a very rare case and nhs does have processes in place to ensure that this is something that doesn't happen. again, just going back to what we said at the start, some up for me this man. i think the judge summed it up best. he was a master of manipulation, he preyed on vulnerability and he accessed women for his own sexual gratification carried out unnecessary intrusive examinations whilst abusing the trust of not only these women but the community that he should have been serving. just a line of breaking, a lorry driver who caused the death of another motorist when he suddenly stopped his vehicle has been given a three—year zen sentence. he was driving a htv last year and caused the death of 24—year—old john robertson who hit the back of the vehicle. pitch black conditions and the hgv stopped in the middle of the carriageway, that is when that tragedy happens. john died instantly. three years sentence for the lorry driver responsible for dangerous driving. the charles dickens museum in london has received an acquisition of over 300 items from the most substantial private collection of dickens material in the world. the items include 144 handwritten letters by dickens, personal items including writing implements and jewellery, original artworks by the illustrators of dickens's books, and 25 novels from dickens's own library. well for more on this incredible acquistion, i'm joined now by lucinda hawksley, who is the great—great—great—granddaughter of the literary icon, charles dickens himself. it is charles dickens birthday. it is, he would have been 208 today. tell us more about the acquisition, why does it matter? it is so important, so much is unpublished so the letters that are coming, some have never been seen by people outside of this collection and i can't wait to start going through them, i'm really excited. it gives it isa them, i'm really excited. it gives it is a wonderful insight into his personality. there is a fantastic letter to his butler that is so exacting and says exactly what the butler should do. some really important things in terms of history of art, several works by great illustrators and the unpublished letters a nd illustrators and the unpublished letters and all sorts of other information about dickens. 0bviously, information about dickens. obviously, there are some mysteries around his life and some aspects that we aren't terribly familiar with so do they shed light, these letters a nd with so do they shed light, these letters and manuscripts, on some of that? i think they do, i think many people aren't aware of how dickens struggled with what today would be called 0cd and i think the letter to the butler, when he showed that everything had to be very exacting so he would have to make his desk look like how it was at home anywhere in the world or he couldn't write and i think the process of his creative imagination is really important when we see these and it isa important when we see these and it is a complete correspondent between charles dickens and a young danish fan. the reason it is complete is the girl he was writing to him actually kept copies of the letters that she sent. dickens famously went many that she sent. dickens famously went ma ny letters that she sent. dickens famously went many letters that were sent to him and urged his friends and correspondence to do the same so there are often missing parts from his correspondence so this is wonderful to see the whole process. 0ut wonderful to see the whole process. out of interest, why did he do that? dickens had become incredibly famous by this point and had separated very publicly and callously from his wife and he didn't want people knowing a huge amount about his life. —— publicly and scanned the sleeve. it is like people getting rid of things on their social media. there were so much about his life, his works, perhaps he didn't want people knowing about that and as you say, the connection does tell us a lot. it tells does it tell us a lot about the things he may not have wanted us to know about? it might do because people who he wrote to asking to destroy the letters might have thought i won't destroy them because they're from charles dickens but there is a particularly wonderful letter where he writes about his time in switzerland because he lived there for several months with his family and apologies to swiss people listening but he didn't like the wine and said it had to like a mixture between vinegar and pickled cucumber but he wrote about how wonderful the place was and how beautiful the landscape was an inspiration for his writing and that bread was more expensive living in london. famously, he loved entertaining and he loved huge walks and huge rides on horseback and that i think comes across in this material as well. the enormous energy of the man. he had an astonishing energy and he would walk for miles at times of great stress and he was an insomniac so he would get up and walk around at night when he was in london or genoa, or other places he would get inspiration so these letters that may not seem particularly interesting but it is so important in terms of characterisation for his novels because dickens used all of that.” know that much of this is going in show in the charles dickens museum and some is going online as well. yes, we have things that are starting to come out as early as the spring and there will be an exhibition sometime next year but there will be a digital collection thatis there will be a digital collection that is starting to be digitised now and this will be on the dickens museum website open to everybody. thanks for coming into tell us about it. but first the headlines on bbc news: a gp who committed dozens of sex offences against former patients at his surgery has been given three life sentences with a minimum term of 15 years. a british national on board a quarantined ship injapan has tested positive for coronavirus. so far 61 passengers have taken ill. karen pierce will be britain's new ambassador to washington — she's currently ambassador to the un. this sunday, hollywood's finest will be walking down the red carpet at this year's 0scars,some for the very first time. among them will be brits nominated for awards ranging from best director to best visual effects, as sophie long has been finding out. it's this weekend, hollywood's biggest night of the year, and the buzz is building, but imagine what it feels like to learn you're going to be one of the people to walk or glide up this red carpet on sunday, especially if it's for the very first time. it really was unexpected. i was in a kind of laughing, crying, state, and i hadn't expected to feel quite so emotional about it. i am a cynic about it all. the whole thing was crazy. i'm on a plane and i can't go anywhere so i tell the air stewardess and she tells everybody else and it'sjust like madness, and they brought a little plate of food, they wrote congratulations on a note. it was special. i've been grinning ear to ear since last monday when sandy called to let me know i would be nominated, so it's amazing. i'm terrible, i'mjust a child at heart. i love this experience. i've never lost that feeling, oh, my gosh, i'm sitting next to dicaprio, or there is al pacino. i am grinning because he is grinning! it'sjust as exciting as the first time. although the first time is pretty amazing. there is a magic to it. it means so much and it's something that, you know, it's an event in your life, like the world cup or something. and it's notjust the recognition of one's peers. the award, the honour. it's the company you get to keep. it would be amazing to meet robert de niro or meet al pacino. these are people i grew up with, as well as any of today's. margot robbie, would be lovely to meet margot robbie. quentin tarantino is a great director, i would love to meet him. brad pitt, iwouldn't mind meeting him! i don't think he's going to want to meet me. i look forward to seeing people i haven't seen for a while, it's really nice. it's a celebration of film and i don't look at it any other way. brad pitt, it's a bit strange because he is like a proper film star. this is the green room where stars will come before going on stage to reveal the winners and present the awards. 0r where the winners might come if they need to take a moment. but how do they prepare? they must‘ve written speeches. rehearsing your 0scar acceptance speech with or without tears is what normal people do when they're bored, right? it's personal, you know. i did actually write something once. i've never done it since. i know that there are people i have to say thank you to. it's not a long list because you always want to keep those things short. that's the thing. i already told myself there is no chance i will win so whatever happens will be a bonus. my heart is already beating a little faster knowing that i might have to get up on that stage. i kind of think it's just better to be spontaneous and just feel the moment and hopefully don't forget people. i daren't think i will ever have to get up there. if i do i will speak from the heart but it tends to be what i've doing in the last few years, just speak from the heart. whatever they say... ..however they say it... ..anyone who walks away from here with a gold statuette will have their pick of the afterparties. 0scar opens a lot of doors. sophie long, bbc news, hollywood. doctors and sexual health experts are urging the health secretary to investigate what they're calling an "unacceptable" shortage of drugs to treat the menopause. many women have been struggling to access hormone replacement therapy for the past year. more recently, there's also been reported shortages of certain types of contraceptives which could lead to unplanned pregnancies and abortions. charlotte rose reports. more than a million women in the uk use hormone replacement therapy to relieve symptoms of the menopause but many have faced difficulty getting the specific brand or treatment they are used to, because of disruption to the manufacturing and supply chain. the royal college of obstetricians and gynaecologists and the british menopause society says it is still unclear why the shortages began and why they seem to be unique to the uk. they have accused the government of an extremely frustrating lack of transparency. women have been advised to consult their pharmacist over alternative treatments but the bbc has spoken to a number of women who say they cannot find an effective substitute. at the same time, there has also been reported shortages of certain contraceptives, particularly pills and self—administered injections. the faculty of sexual and reproductive health care has warned increasing the difficulty of accessing birth control could lead to a rise in unplanned pregnancies and abortions. women do not shout out loud, theyjust suffer in silence and that is why it is more important that people like ourselves, organisations like ourselves make everybody aware of what is happening to women. a department of health spokesperson said... it is thought the supply of patches used for hormone replacement therapy could start to improve from this month but without further action, many women could be waiting much longer for medication they rely on. charlotte rose, bbc news. now with all the business new here's alice baxer in birmingham. you join me here right in the middle of birmingham city centre and we are in our high viz which means we are ona in our high viz which means we are on a construction site on what is going to be a 30 story high office block, the tallest in the uk outside of london and we are here to mark national apprenticeship week and the theme is to look beyond, look beyond preconceptions that young people, employers, parents, teachers might have had about the sort of opportunities, career parts and salaries open to beleaguered on the apprenticeship route. the construction is one well used to apprentices. —— open to people on the apprenticeship route. apprentices are useful to the construction but there are problems? the government introduced a levy to try and increase the amount of pen ships but the problem is that the smaller benefits are not seeing the benefits and so we are seeing a decline in other friendships and the other kind of adventures we need if your building infrastructure and housing targets that the government have. nine out of ten are partnership schemes come via the smaller companies and it is not trickling down. what is the solution, how to tackle the skills shortage in the industry? can i say, it is also really incredibly important we grow those numbers because the government next months budget is going to announce the infrastructure revolution which will create the need for more jobs so we need to make sure the industry is attractive to young people, work with the industry to improve the culture but also give people a taste of what construction is likely one of what construction is likely one of the things we're doing at the moment as we are running a construction skills fund that by april will provide 13 a half thousand people with opportunities to get an experience in construction and prepare them for an apprenticeship. are two incredible important things to do. as you say, in the budget we are expected to hear about the infrastructure revolution, another issue is that a huge proportion of your workforce comes from outside the uk, in the eu, what are you going to do post brexit? that is correct, about 12% of the workforce in the construction industry comes from the eu and employers are ramping up the domestic skills base but we are also going to need in the short—term continued migration from within europe and outside of europe and the advisory committee who advise the government on immigration policy suggested lowering the salary threshold which the amount of money you need to get a visa to about 25,000 from 30000 and we really urge the government to accept that recommendation. you agree that? i do andl recommendation. you agree that? i do and i think we need to take the opportunity to make the industry as attractive to young people and others as possible. we are running a campaign at the moment which is about changing perceptions of the industry and make it easier to get into. i think also it is really important that when we have these opportunities in construction, employers make them visible to young people because often people find it difficult to get into the industries we need to do more about that. till bats diversifying the work and getting the right people in. many thanks to you both. —— it is all about diversifying their work for ducts we are here all day talking about the importance of this national apprenticeship week. now time for the weather. after a quiet spell of weather we are going to see a change. for many there will be dry weather on saturday and some sunny spells but the winds will pick up on the north and west with heavy persistent rain pushing in here. that will become more widespread overnight as winds become widespread as well before we see storm ciara bringing stormy weather on sunday was that there will be heavy rain and the potential for some big waves and also we are looking at severe gales widely across the uk was that we can see storm ciara here on the pressure chart as it works its way in from the west bringing that spell of heavy rain and those strong winds. more on that in a moment. first of all, in the here and now it is a calm and settled picture, a bit of cloud lingering for eastern areas first thing but good spells of sunshine. always cloudy in the west and that could be thick enough for the odd spot of rain or drizzle and it will turn increasingly windy in the north and west. as we go through tonight, cloud and outbreaks of rain will sweep eastwards. that rain could be heavy and persistent, particularly for a time across scotland, parts of northern ireland, some showers feeding in behind that but to take a look at those temperatures, milder than they have been of late. starting the day on a saturday, lingering cloud in the southeast with patchy outbreaks of rain but for many some good spells of sunshine, if you showers in the north and west and then a sign of that change, that heavy persistent rain and gales working into the north and west. that is a sign of things to come into the second half of the weekend. initially, that first band of rain but is eastwards and then storm ciara arrives into the early hours. storm ciara bringing heavy persistent rain, perhaps a little bit of snow at the high ground but gradually sinks itself. there will be some blustery showers feeding into the north and west behind that, that heavy persistent rain also coupled with strong winds. widely we are expecting gusts of 60 to 70 mph but locally we could see gusts higher than that in the north and west. that strength of wind does have the potential to cause some disruption and the met office has a yellow weather warning covering the whole of the uk but they are expecting to see great impact in the south and east. there is a greater likelihood of those impacts here but they have issued an amber warning. stay tuned to the forecast. an east london gp is given three life sentences for 90 sexual assaults on 24 female patients. manish shah was described by a judge as a master of deception, who abused his position of power. the police said he'd broken his patients' trust. he used his position as a family doctor to access vulnerable women, to carry out unnecessary medical procedures, breaching their trust, for his own sexual gratification. we'll bring you all the latest from our correspondent at the old bailey. also this lunchtime... dozens more passengers, including a briton, have tested positive for coronavirus on a cruise ship off the coast ofjapan. the tv presenter phillip schofield — who's been married for 27 years — comes out as gay.
