Again further north for scotland and Northern Ireland with that south westerly breeze, most areas will be cloudy and asa breeze, most areas will be cloudy and as a result will be frost free. A bit of Rain Sneaking into the far West Of Scotland during the day, otherwise another dry day, probably a bit greyer and as a result a bit colder across england and wales and the fog turning into low cloud.

This programme contains a description of Domestic Violence that some viewers may find upsetting. Hello and welcome to the programme. Over the next half an hour well bring you some of the exclusive interviews and original stories that we have brought to you over the last year. Actor and film director adam deakin is one of britains brightest talents, winning a bafta in 2012. But he was sectioned and later diagnosed with having bipolar disorder. He was one of the main people that i would find myself youtubing. You had a public breakdown yourself. Im almost certain, as certain as i could be that had i lived later, i would have been diagnosed as having attention deficit hyperactivity disorder, my School Report i was unbelievably disruptive, ebullient, annoying, couldnt stop speaking. I got expelled from this school and that school and the other school, i eventually went to prison. Then i thought everything was fine, i kind of got over it in my early 20s and thats when everything started to go wrong. I realised that i was somehow prayed to these terrible moods. I was ina prayed to these terrible moods. I was in a play and ijust. Had a kind of collapse of confidence and a general feeling that my life was kind of over. Got the proper diagnosis then. I thought i had faced the beast but i was kidding myself. Several years after that. I was lying in a Hospital Bed Thinking i was a lunatic, not a sane person. I look back at the work i have done and i think maybe this stemmed from the bipolar. I wrote it, i directed it, iwas stemmed from the bipolar. I wrote it, i directed it, i was acting stemmed from the bipolar. I wrote it, i directed it, iwas acting in it, i directed it, iwas acting in it but when i look back to outsiders looking at me, everyone seemed to say the same thing, is quite manic. They band red bull on the set, they thought it was that at the time. One of the things i know from my experience and it still shocks me is that the people who love me best read my mood more quickly than i can myself. My husband knows when im manic, he sees it in my face and my eyes. I once had it so badly, im the least superstitious person in the least superstitious person in the world but i thought, had i even had a grain of religion in me, i would have thought god was talking to me, ifelt like would have thought god was talking to me, i felt likejoan would have thought god was talking to me, Ifelt Likejoan of arc. It was quite ripening in the end. Youre obviously dealing with your own demons in the first place, going through hell, you are all over the place and then its everywhere. How did you cope with that . Ive always lived my life in a strangely public way in terms of being open about things. In the 80s, when it was quite unusual, i came out as being 93v, quite unusual, i came out as being gay, there were plenty of gay people in Show Business but not many who we re in Show Business but not many who were out at all. It was a similar thing inasmuch as, in our business it is much easier to talk about your emotions because our business is one in which emotions and experience are the kind of ingredients for the films and the books that we cook up. I ended up having this kind of breakdown but because of twitter, i was writing all this kind of crazy stuff on twitter without even realising it. Sometimes ijust wish someone realising it. Sometimes ijust wish someone took my phone away and just made me calm. I did and i feel much the better for it. Next, an unprecedented admission by the former head of the british army. In an exclusive interview with this programme, he told us about how he had refused to take a controversial anti malaria drug because of concerns over its catastrophic side effects, even though he knew the drug was being given to the troops. He was in africa shortly after taking his first couple of doses and became very unwell very quickly. He became very unwell very quickly. He became extremely depressed, not the sort of person he would normally be. Normally very bubbly and personable sort of individual. He got very withdrawn and we got very worried about him. Have you ever taken lariam . No. Because bertie had that effect, every time i have taken antimalarial drugs, i have said i will take anything but im not taking lariam. I made myself very ill but realised very quickly i didnt have a Mental Health issue. That was happening, you knew you would not take lariam at the same time as members who were serving under us Chief Of General Staff who we re under us Chief Of General Staff who were taking lariam . Serving under you as Chief Of General Staff. Yes, thatis you as Chief Of General Staff. Yes, that is true. But again, i think that is true. But again, i think thatis that is true. But again, i think that is because the organisation hadnt reached a settled view over whether lariam was more efficient. If it wasnt good enough you, should it not have been good enough for eve ryo ne it not have been good enough for everyone serving under you 7 it not have been good enough for everyone serving under you . Because i had first hand experience of what could happen, i can put myself in the same position. But other people we re the same position. But other people were being put in that position. This is true. But i come back to the fa ct this is true. But i come back to the fact that the Ministry Of Defence as an organisation was still trying to come to a conclusion in general terms whether the beneficial and harmful effects of lariam were greater or less. The effects were almost immediate. It was as if the wiring in your brain had completely gone or had completely rewired. I did get depressed to the point of suicidal thoughts. Since 1997, the british nationalformulary, which gps consult when prescribing medicines, has made absolutely clear what anyone being given lariam should be told about it. Theres a series of neuropsychiatric side effects and say that the drug must be stopped immediately if any of them are experienced. Weve spoken to many members of the military who say they were simply not made aware of that. We were just told, this is what youre taking on the way you go. You were told there might be side effects . No, not at all. In a statement, the Ministry Of Defence said the vast majority of deployed personnel already received alternatives to lariam and where it is used, it is only prescribed after an individual risk assessment. In many respects, im a broken man. The army has broken me, the government has broken me. Why do the British Government continue to give this drug to its Serving Members . Reina holden was 18 when her boyfriend beat her unconscious and left her for dead in a pub car park in washington, tyne wear. The attack was caught on cctv. She came on to our programme back in february to tell her story and encourage others to speak out and get help. He always used to put me down, if things didnt go his way or if he wanted to do something and i didnt want to do it, that is when the abuse would happen. Also when he had no money, when he didnt have money for alcohol, his drugs. I took all the backlash of that. Can i ask you, rayna, what kind of things he used to do to you . He used to pick me up, throw me against the radiator, he used to rank me about with my hair, punch me in the face, slapped me. He would call me nasty names. Used to rag me about. He wasjust would call me nasty names. Used to rag me about. He was just a horrible man. And i think as well, as well as that horrific physical abuse, on the controlling side of things, he would try and control access to your phone or do you were allowed to see. Yeah, who i was allowed to see. Yeah, who i was allowed to see. Yeah, who i was allowed to see, who i was allowed to speak to, who i had on my facebook. There was one occasion i was on the phone to my grandad and he actually snatched the phone out of my hand and took the battery of the phone so i couldnt have any contact with him. Why was he doing this to you . I dont know the reason why he was doing it to me but i think, i dont know. I think its more to do with having control over a person. He used to like controlling me and telling me what to do. Can i ask you about the attack that he committed on you in that pub car park in November 2014 . Yeah. I was meant to be going to meet him so i have walked down to the Cross Keys Pub in the village in washington. Ive walked into the pub and daryl was stood with his mate and two other women and he was playing pool with them. He was smacking their and his mate followed me out and i was just talking to a friend and ten minutes after darryl came outside and he was telling me, how come you are getting jealous . Youre not my girlfriend any more. Telling me that im worthless, that i meant nothing to him, that i was just a child to him that my family had given me too. It ended up in a massive argument and that argument led to him chasing me out of the car park. He had a pint glass in his hand and he tried to smash it on my head. It hit me six times before it shattered. He grabbed me by my hair when the blast shattered, he dragged me behind a car and he kept punching me, kicking me, punching me. When i was unconscious, he picked me up by my hairand was unconscious, he picked me up by my hair and dragged me halfway across the car park to a set of bins where he dropped me again and stood over my body. That was rayna holden, speaking about abuse at the hands of an ex partner. I can tell you that she has now found happiness again with someone else. Now,. Can. Cani. Can i ask you about Victoria Wood . Is devoted was a huge shock and people felt really close to her even though they didnt know her. You we re though they didnt know her. You were actually close to her which must have made it very difficult. Were actually close to her which must have made it Very Difficultm was. The fact that it is kind of in the Public Domain as well makes it really strange. I couldnt kind of respond to it very much at the beginning. Even though we all knew that it was probably close, still a huge shock. Death is anyway, isnt it . Still a huge shock. Huge shock. Death is anyway, isnt it . Stilla huge shock. Ifound huge shock. Death is anyway, isnt it . Still a huge shock. Ifound i couldnt respond. Sometimes. Ifelt hugely anxious first of all, massive anxiety about it. When i was able to relax and see my husband, he just went. Yeah. Huge loss. Still today i cant think what brought it up. We we re i cant think what brought it up. We were in the taxi coming here and chrissie with my make up, she was very close to her and i thought, why would i think about her in the taxi . But i think everyone goes through that thing with grief where they think, theyre not here you cant believe it. 62. Its nothing, is it . No, these days it isnt. Before she got ill, sheila fantastic. She looks really, really well. Not a mark on her skin. So yeah. You may not want to a nswer her skin. So yeah. You may not want to answer this and that is fine. Richie ramsay lies could she rationalised the diagnosis . Yes. I dont want to say anything else really. Thats fine. Victorias legacy is her work. People are going to enjoy her work and your Work Together for evermore. I hope so. That would be brilliant if it is the case. Her brother wants a statue to erected in bury, where she obviously went to school. A statue of her sitting at a piano. What do you think of that idea . Statue of her sitting at a piano. What do you think of that idea7m sounds gorgeous. So long as its flattering. She wouldnt like it if it wasnt it somehow doesnt seem enough, a statue, does it . You know, her work is the thing, isnt it . Its her work that, as you say, is the legacy and that stimulates everyones memories of her and keeps her alive, it is the work. Before you met victoria, which was i thinking the mid devon tees and towards the late 70s, before that you were part of a kind of generation of Working Class Actors who originated from the Everyman Theatre in liverpool. You, peter postlethwa ite, bill theatre in liverpool. You, peter postlethwaite, bill nye. And now as you know, eddie remmer eddie eddie redmayne, tom hiddleston, they all went to eton. Is that an issue for you . They are wonderful actors. Ive worked with tom. They are all fantastic.

These days, you cant get a got grants. These days, you cant geta grant got grants. These days, you cant get a grant for drama school at all. So thats a worry, then. Where is the next generation of Working Class Actors going to come from . the next generation of Working Class Actors going to come from . I dont know. Presumably not through drama school, obviously. Buti know. Presumably not through drama school, obviously. But i think things go in cycles, i really do believe that. I was lucky to be on the wave of the michael cain, tom courtenay, albert finney, we all started in the 60s and in the 70s we really cashed in on that. It was really cashed in on that. It was really not good to have a middle class accent. You were here posh people trying to talk like that, so that they would be accepted. Because it wasnt trendy. Soi accepted. Because it wasnt trendy. So i was very lucky to be part of that, there was no feeling. Before that, there was no feeling. Before that you had to get rid of any accident that you had. Yeah. Do you think hollywood has got better or not when it comes to roles for older women . No. I dont think theyre very good for roles for women, are they . You see wonderful actors.

Hes been engrossed and is obsessed with it for the last five years, literally living and breathing it. Very good. Hes gone from hardly leaving the house other than to go to college to wanting to go out every night. Hes found another one when he first said he wanted to go out, i said, when he first said he wanted to go out, isaid, we when he first said he wanted to go out, i said, we will see how it goes, and three hours later we were still out. I was like, oh my god. He spent two years pretty much out of school because he was like going and being sent home because he had had a bad anxiety attack, to the point where he was doubled up on the floor in pain with his stomach, he would spend days wrapped in a sleeping bag. Every time you try to ta ke sleeping bag. Every time you try to take him out, he would have an anxiety attack. Luke, fiona, sam, daniel.

Heres a Reminder Ofjust how Inspiring Team gb were. It is not the critic who counts come and not the man who points out how the strong man stumbles or where the doer of deeds could have done them better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena. Whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood. Who strives valiantly, who errs. Who comes short again and again. Because there is no effort without error and shortcoming. But who does actually strive to do the deed. Who knows great enthusiasm and great devotions. This may be the last one . Possibly, yeah. I dont want to cry who spends himself in a worthy cause. Triumphs in high achievement. Who in the end if he fails, at least. Thank you very much for watching. We are back on air onjanuary the 3rd. In the meantime you can watch our films on our programme page. Good morning. The coldest weather this morning was across england and wales. Weve still got some areas of low cloud and fog. That should shrink a bit and england and wales should remain dry and sunny. A milder, south westerly wind, areas seeing more cloud. Where the fog is slower to clear it will be a cold day but could make double figures across the south coast of england. Hardly any wind across england and wales overnight and we will find probably more fog forming, more frost as well. Ambridge is very close to freezing even in the towns and cities inland in particular. More cloud should keep the temperature is up across scotland and Northern Ireland with more breeze here as well and a limited amount of sunshine. 0n the whole with more fog lifting into england and wales, sunshine will be harder to find. The south coast faring best of all. These are the sort of temperatures and with grey skies across england and wales, the temperatures could be lower than today.
