There was a lot about the challenges faced by| lot about the challenges faced by young families, an area the princess of wales has worked on, something her husband mentioned. Containing all the speculation is impossible for the team around the prince and princess of wales. The footage from the farm shop will dampen some of the more outlandish theories but things will not feel anything like normal again until the princess of wales returns to the routine of royal duty after easter. The rumours and gossip were off the agenda today, replaced perhaps by a sense of relief. That a regular royal engagement went off smoothly amidst speculation that wont quite go away. Our social media correspondent Marianna Spring is here the striking thing about this story today is that royal sources are having to confirm it is the princess in this footage. Yes, and that is because, in particular if you are someone who uses social media, you are likely to have encountered the very frenzied online conversation about the princess of wales and there have been people asking genuine question who are concerned and want details but also these more extreme Conspiracy Theories including one that was spreading today suggesting that was spreading today suggesting that this was not really kate but instead a body double or an impersonator. That is entirely false but nonetheless, when i woke up this morning, it was the first thing recommended to me by the algorithm, the Computer Generated systems on both tiktok and x and i look at some of those recommended videos and they accumulated more than 12 million views according to their data and more than 11 million on to hole it is a lot. These kind of Social Media Frenzy is a down to a vacuum of information in the media can exacerbate them but nonetheless it is a serious question about the roles of Social Media Site in this kind of content which is coming from all over the world, australia, germany, the uk and us. According to tiktok, in the guidelines, they dont allow misleading or false content that may cause significant harm to individuals or society regardless of the attempt. X did not get back to me but they said depending people is one of its core values. ~ ,. , a man has become the first person to be found guilty of the new offence of � Cyber Flashing in england and wales. Nicholas hawkes from essex was sentenced to more than a year in prison after pleading guilty to sending unsolicited, explicit photos to a 15 Year Old Girl and a woman. Sanchia berg reports. It has happened to many thousands of women and girls. Without warning, a photo appears on their phone or their computer. Explicit, shocking, and unwanted. And unwanted.

Seven weeks ago, sending images like those became a criminal offence and today at southend crown court, the first person was jailed for Cyber Flashing. Nicholas hawkes admitted sending it to stop his genitals to a teenage girl and a woman in her 60s sending pictures. The court heard he suffered from extreme Poster Medic Stress Disorder after being kidnapped and tortured some years ago. His barrister said he got no sexual gratification from sending those images. Thejudge did not accept that. The lord chancellor Alex Chalk Casey said. Hoff alex chalk kc. Many hoped this conviction will give victims renewed confidence.

The first conviction for Cyber Flashing in england and wales. It has been a crime in scotland since 2010. Do we expect to see a lot more . The cps have been asking people who have been victims of this crime to come forward and they say they are very determined to bring forward more cases. Certainly essex police invested in a unit to investigate this case and others so some Police Forces are also taking it very seriously so there may well be more cases but fundamentally i think many people i have been speaking to today say this is a symbolic thing, it is a sign as thejustice secretary was saying, that this is not a bit of fun, something lightweight, its a very serious act that could land you in prison. Symbolic in the hope that notjust it reassures women that action will be taken but it makes men who might be sending these images of thinking of it, think again.

The creation of the First Independent regulator for mens football in england is a step closer after the government introduced new legislation today. If passed into law, it would grant powers to a body to oversee clubs across englands top five tiers, independent of government and football authorities. 0ur Sports Editor dan roan has more.

Thousands of new Electricity Pylons are needed across the uk to Connect Offshore Wind Farms to the National Grid and make britains Energy System greener. Thats according to the National Grid, which says the extra power lines as well as Underwater Cabling will cost almost £60 billion, and customers will have to foot part of the cost with a rise in electricity bills. Heres our business editor, simonjack. Green, cheap, home grown. Offshore wind has been a massive british Success Story and more huge wind farms are planned to Decarbonise Uk electricity and make it less reliant on imported fossil fuels. But you need to get the electricity from where its produced out at sea back onshore to where its used. The current grid is not ready for that and needs a massive rewiring. Here is what is needed over the next decade. According to the people who will manage the uks power grid. In green, those are the wind farms that will be there in 2035, as you can see, clustered around the east coast of scotland and the east coast of england. In blue, 4000 miles of subsea cables, moving the power around the coast. And then in red, 1000 miles of onshore power lines cutting through scotland, north west england, wales, east anglia and here in essex. A 100 mile stretch of pylons from norfolk to the outskirts of london will run right through these blackcurrant fields in rural essex. 0pponents say there are better ways and vow to fight the proposals. We have never had options. We have been told pylons, pylons or pylons, down a certain route, even if we know there are Better Options for the country as a whole, notjust for us. This is nimbyism, isnt it . I think we need to see all the best, modern solutions looked at, not this Dinosaur Technology of the past. Pylons are the technology of yesteryear. Burying cables underground is more expensive and will add to the £58 billion cost which will see an extra £20 30 added to annual bills for a decade, according to the systems planners. We have tried to balance cost, environmental impact, impact on communities and the security of the electricity system. What that has meant is that we have got in the plan four times as much offshore infrastructure, new offshore infrastructure, as onshore, but inevitably that does mean, in balancing those four factors, there is still going to be some infrastructure onshore. So that inevitably means more pylons . Yes, it does, for some communities. No the government has promised a robust planning process. Disagreement is guaranteed. The local residents near where the line is going to go, local councils want to make sure their voters will keep voting for them, look at the piece who will make their voice known, aligning all those people behind the project is the challenge that Government Faces now. There is a long way to go but without a grid upgrade, britains wind riches risk going to waste. Simonjack, bbc news, essex. The time is 6 15pm. Our top story this evening. The first footage of the princess of wales in public since christmas emerges it was filmed in windsor. And why these bells wont be Keeping Villagers in devon up all night. And stay with us here on bbc news for continuing coverage and analysis from our team of correspondents in the uk and around the world. Hoping to bring it home for team england.

The Department For Transport says it has allocated an extra £8. 3 billion to fund this sort of work over the next decade, but with prices rising, councils under pressure and potholes appearing more quickly than they can be fixed, we are being warned it is just not enough.

The outgoing First Minister of Wales Mark Drakeford has faced questions in the senedd for the final time. In his resignation speech, he thanked the welsh people and his colleagues for their support during in what he called the hardest and saddest year, after his wife clare died suddenly. He also reflected on his values while in office. No ground was ever gained without a struggle for a progressive cause, even when the case for change is so clear, or the object of that change so apparently innocuous, because in politics, you will always face vested interests. Some of them, benign, others, determined not to surrender their own positions of power and of privilege. And that has been a feature of the whole of my time as First Minister. The Shadow Chancellor says a Labour Government would have to make almost impossible trade offs on Tax And Spend if the uk economy does not grow. Speaking to the bbc ahead of a lecture in the City Of London tonight, she said even with Public Services on their knees the uk cantjust tax its way to better Public Services. She was speaking to our economics editor Faisal Islam Whojoins me now. A big, significant speech for the Shadow Chancellor tonight. What more did she have to say to you . It certainly the most extensive exposition of what the labour party would do with the economy if it got in office. An hour long speech which will start in half an hours time. Its not an alternative budget, though, and what you get is a high Level Strategy where some of the institutions of the economy are tweaked a little to make them more progrowth, pro climate change, and in the case of the planning machinery, a big bang are there to try and attract tens of billions of pounds of investment from the private sector. Why . She argues, like the current government argues, there isnt enough money to spend from the Public Sector including on some of the priorities we have seen in councils in previous reports. So in councils in previous reports. So in general terms, this is an attempt to communicate, from her perspective to communicate, from her perspective to the public, trust me im an economist, but not so much policy detail on Tax And Spend. Those are the areas where a lot of the Election Battle will be hard and thats maybe now because she does not expect there to be another budgetary event before the election, and we hide from the chancellor and he sort of suggested that he hoped there would be another budget event before the general election, a hint perhaps of a later general election in october. ~ perhaps of a later general election in october. ,. , a Deliveroo Rider has pleaded guilty to biting off part of a customers thumb . After an argument over whether the pizzas were really for him. The man, who was attacked by the Woman Driving for deliveroo, was left with life changing injuries to his hand. But he cant claim any compensation from her or from the Delivery Company because of the rules around her employment status. Angus crawford has the story. Shed clean taken it off. Its as if id gone through a chainsaw. A friday night pizza is all stephen wanted. Now i have to live with this for the rest of my life. What he got was life changing injuries. The delivery rider went to the wrong address. There was a Brief Argument and then she bit his thumb off. The force with which she must have been biting. All i remember my arm was there and i was shaking her helmet with this hand, trying to get her off. My arm dropped and my brain said, oh, shes let go. I lifted my arm up and i sprayed her with blood. We cant show you the worst pictures theyre just too unpleasant. After months off work and reconstructive surgery, stephen wants compensation. But the rider, jennifer rocha, had borrowed someone elses account. Her insurance doesnt cover this. I dont, at the moment, see the light at the end of the tunnel. Financially, im ruined. Im unemployed. I am in a massive amount of debt. I want to use this story to help others to say this has to change, you know . Because at the moment im getting nothing from deliveroo. Substitution. Thats because of something called substitution. Deliveroo doesnt employ riders as workers. Theyre classed as contractors, so they can lend their account to anyone they choose, as long as they do all the right checks. The problem with that is that if something goes wrong, say you get injured by a substitute rider, well, deliveroo cant be held liable, and thats the same for all the big food delivery apps. The rider in todays case is brazilian, in the uk legally, and has the right to work. But our last investigation revealed a black market in rider accounts on social media. Anyone could buy or rent them. At this time, he is currently under arrest. That included Illegal Immigrants and even children. Deliveroo told us their riders are self employed, which has been confirmed by uk courts on multiple occasions. They said this was an awful incident and they ended the account of the rider concerned immediately and have fully cooperated with the police investigation. Today at Winchester Crown court, rocha pleaded guilty to grievous bodily harm. Shell be sentenced in six weeks time. Stephen says hes left paying his own price for that night. Would you use a delivery app again . Never. Never would i ever use a delivery app ever again in my life. Angus crawford, bbc news. The fashion firm, ted baker, is set to go into administration, Putting Hundreds Ofjobs at risk. Its american owner, Authentic Brands group, says it remains focused on securing a new partner to grow the business in the uk and europe. Ted bakers stores and website will remain open during the search for a potential buyer. People who need help with their tax return will be no longer have access to a helpline for six months of the year, and will have to use online services. Hm revenue and customs say the Self Assessment Telephone Helpline will be permanently closed for six months from the 8th april to the 30th september. Whens its open, itll only deal with priority cases. For centuries, you could have set your watch by the church bells in the village of witheridge. They chimed every quarter of an hour, by day and by night. But no more. The ringing at night time has now been silenced by the council afterjust one complaint. Jenny kumah has more. Bells toll. This small village in north devon, with its population of more than 1,000, is normally a peaceful place. But in recent weeks, the calm has been shattered by a row about the church bells. They have been the soundtrack to life here for centuries, but they were silenced in january because a local resident found them less than appealing. He complained and the District Council backed him. Get over it, lifes too short. Sorry, but when you move into a village and you live near a church, you have got to expect church bells to ring. I like hearing the bells ring, it helps me tell the time. And the village shop owner reckons the more the bells toll, the better. You live right next door to the church how much of a nuisance do you find it . I dont find it a nuisance at all. Id prefer them to ring 24 hours a day. After a petition, the bells ring as before but not at night. The vicar here told us the original purpose of the bells was to call the workers in from the fields. He accepts they probably were too loud and he thinks there is now a good compromise. It is something you get used to in the night. Some are unhappy at the cost of the compromise. The Parish Council has paid £2000 for the new clock mechanism. We are all, ultimately, paying that with our contributions etc. So its a little bit unfair, really. The row isnt over yet. There is now a campaign to restore the bell ringing throughout the night. Jenny kumah, bbc news, north devon. The behind the scenes story of the bbc interview which caused Prince Andrew to withdraw from all public duties has been turned into a film. Scoop tells the story of Emily Maitlis newsnight head to head with the duke of york. 0ur Entertainment Correspondent Colin Paterson reports. Tomorrow night, in an unprecedented interview, we will hear from the duke himself. Its newsnight the movie, or rather, a netflix dramatisation of how producer sam mccallister, played by billie piper, secured Emily Maitlis 2019 interview with Prince Andrew. The allegations surrounding Jeffrey Epstein include his friend Prince Andrew. With Gillian Anderson as Emily Maitlis. I could walk in the park. Why do you need to make a dramatic version of it when the original is still there . Because this, as much as anything, is about the story behind the acquisition of the interview. Why not dramatise up until one of the most important and dramatic interviews in history, really. I think it is in history, isnt it . Myjob is booking the people we cantjust call up. Hello, everyone. Billie, its important to say this is very much from the Point Of View of sam mcallister. Shes so high energy and unlike anyone ive ever met, actually, and i dont say that lightly. Ive never been smuggled into a palace before. At first, Gillian Anderson actually turned down the role of Emily Maitlis. I cant tell you what the questions will be because i dont know myself yet. But when i do know. I still wont tell you. I mean, its just too scary to play Emily Maitlis. Why . Well, because shes still living, because shes so formidable, because people know her so well and they said, well, then you have to do it. Do you remember dancing at tramp . No. And to make things more complicated, Emily Maitlis herself is Executive Producer on an upcoming rival three part amazon drama about the interview, which made it slightly awkward when Gillian Anderson bumped into her. I had come to this Charity Event not having prepared at all and was really dishevelled, and she showed up as Emily Maitlis, who looks like a movie star and was tanned and short white skirt and tanned legs and everything. And i literally looked like her great aunt i thought that went very well. Prince andrew famously thought that the interview had been a triumph. Gillian anderson and billie piper both agree that there is almost no chance he will watch this version. This interview, does it matter . Colin paterson, bbc news. Yeah, it matters. Time for a look at the weather. Heres ben rich. Thank you very much. Tomorrow is the Spring Equinox and there are plenty of signs of spring around. Lots of daffodils and today temperatures in central and Eastern England got up to 17 degrees and with this feed off mild air from the south. However, do not rest on your laurels because spring can bring us cold weather and look at this by the weekend, a change in Wind Direction and something significantly colder. But in the short term we have a feed of mild air giving rise to mist and fog in the south west and you can see outbreaks of rain for many of us through the night although the north West Of Scotland will hold onto some clear skies but it will be quite a chilly night here but elsewhere very mild as we start tomorrow morning but for many there will be cloud and outbreaks of rain across the central slice of the uk and the rain tending to peter out to some extent as the day wears on but across the south east corner, if the sun comes out tomorrow, temperatures could peak at 18 celsius. Still a little bit murky for some of the western coasts and hills and some outbreaks of rain for parts of wales and Northern England but for Northern Ireland and Western Scotland we will see sunny spells and temperatures not as high but ten or 11 degrees, light winds in the sunshine and that will feel quite nice, and this slice of clear skies going wednesday into thursday before thursday itself, wet and windy weather in the mix, particularly for scotland and Northern Ireland. Drier and brighter further south and another very mild day. But that will change. The cold front pushes south and east during thursday into friday, friday very windy indeed across Northern Areas and you can just see signs of some wintry showers. It is going to turn colder as we head into the weekend, so briefly, springer may be on hold. 0h so briefly, springer may be on hold. Oh well, thank you. And thats bbc news at six
