to her appeal. she just sits so fondly in the hearts of her fans, and she means she's just been there at different points in their lives, and she still continues to be there, which i think is, you know, it's rare that a celebrity is at the peak of their fame 15 years into their career. but that's kind of where she's at. so she's kind of an anomaly. this is swift's first new music since 2022, and presumably the latest songs will be added to the setlist when the eras tour hits the uk injune. before then, fans have a lot of listening to do. mark savage, bbc. let's see if we've got a tortured weather forecast. it's not bad but not great. high

pressure is heading our way but i need to manage your expectations because, although it's going to be largely dry this weekend it will often be cloudy and quite chilly. the protestant warming conditions likely to be in the western side of the uk. there is the area of high pressure to the west of the uk the top i want to show you the position of the jet stream. the winds are driving weather systems around the world, thejet driving weather systems around the world, the jet stream to the north of us, and then pushing south. if anything, thejet of us, and then pushing south. if anything, the jet stream of us, and then pushing south. if anything, thejet stream is of us, and then pushing south. if anything, the jet stream is spending back on itself through the weekend, which will introduce some colder air across eastern parts especially. through today, a frontal system to clear the south, some rain with that, but we see skies brightening, sunny spells, scattered showers. just 8 degrees in aberdeen for the further south, 16 in cardiff. this evening tonight, most of the showers will fade. we keep some going in eastern counties, where it will stay

breezy. more cloud in north—west scotland. in between, clearskies and it's going to be cold, a touch of frost for some to start saturday morning, but they should be quite a lot of sunshine around this thing. still some showers peppering these coast of england and, through the day, we will see more cloud building in the sky. a bit of patchy rain into the north—west of scotland. the best sunshine in the afternoon across northern ireland, which is probably where we will see highest temperatures, up to 15 compare that with eight to ten along the east coast. so feeling chilly. into sunday, high pressure but this frontal system dangling down is going to generate quite a lot of cloud, possibly even the odd shower for the london marathon. it's going to feel cool and breezy, probably not too bad for the marathon runners, but for the rest of us, i suspect it will be quite cloudy to

dip there will be some showers here and there, especially in the south—east. the best chance of brightness to the west, ireland could get 18 degrees on sunday but for eastern parts, eight to 10 degrees, and feel continues for some into the of next week. some places stuck in single digits. higher temperatures further north and west. thanks, ben. and that's bbc news at one. now it's time to join our colleagues for the news where you are. goodbye. hello and welcome to sportsday. i'm tanya arnold. aston villa are left flying the flag in europe after a disappointing week for the premier league clubs.

lando norris takes pole position at the chinese grand prix. nelly korda is two shots off the lead at the chevron championship, as she bids to win her fifth title in a row. aston villa are the only british club through to a european semifinal, having beating lille in the conference league quarterfinals, eventually winning on penalities. both liverpool and west ham went out of the europa league. here's a reminder of what happened last night with joe lynskey. aston villa had just been minutes from the exit, 3—2 down to lille,

two of them given to countries whose teens perform best in this year's european competitions. they are cold european competitions. they are cold european support and spots. it creates a table. so at the moment the top two are italy and germany, so as it stands those leagues which receive if it champions league spot. england are third after man city, arsenal and liverpool all exited european competitions, and west ham. the only way that england could get an extra champions league spot is if aston villa wind both legs of their semifinal and the final, but also of all three german teens lose both legs of their semifinals and go out, so there is a slim chance, and it is unlikely, but it is still mathematically possible. we heard from klopp talking about the intensity of the premier league.

he's not the only premier league manager unhappy after going out of european competitions. jurgen klopp went on to talk about how intense the premier league games. david moyes was a bit more defensive after his side lost to bayer leverkusen on aggregate. he was asked about coming to them of his time at the club. it was asked about coming to them of his time at the club.— his time at the club. if this is the end of your _ his time at the club. if this is the end of your tenure? _ his time at the club. if this is the end of your tenure? i'm - his time at the club. if this is the end of your tenure? i'm sorry, i l end of your tenure? i'm sorry, i didn't get _ end of your tenure? i'm sorry, i didn't get that _ end of your tenure? i'm sorry, i didn't get that question. - end of your tenure? i'm sorry, i didn't get that question. i - end of your tenure? i'm sorry, i didn't get that question. i just l didn't get that question. i “ust wanted to �* didn't get that question. i “ust wanted to reflect i didn't get that question. i “ust wanted to reflect on i didn't get that question. i “ust wanted to reflect on the h didn't get that question.- wanted to reflect on the three didn't get that question— wanted to reflect on the three ug have had — wanted to reflect on the three ug have had in europe. the moment you have had in europe. the moment you have given _ have had in europe. the moment you have given these bands over the last three _ have given these bands over the last three seasons.— have given these bands over the last three seasons. better question. i am hoinu that three seasons. better question. i am hoping that we _ three seasons. better question. i am hoping that we could _ three seasons. better question. i am hoping that we could make _ three seasons. better question. i am hoping that we could make it - three seasons. better question. i am hoping that we could make it for - hoping that we could make it for years _ hoping that we could make it for ears. ~ , hoping that we could make it for ears. , years. david moyes feeling he has unfinished business _ years. david moyes feeling he has unfinished business at _ years. david moyes feeling he has unfinished business at west - years. david moyes feeling he has unfinished business at west ham. years. david moyes feeling he has - unfinished business at west ham. his side will need to pick things up in

the league, they are eighth at the moment, currently out of the european places. the fallout over the decision to remove fa cup replays from next season has continued today, with the football association hitting back at the criticism they've received. in a statement released in the last few hours, they say they have "listened to the concerns expressed." and emphasise that, "we have been discussing the calendar for the 202a/25 season with the premier league and the efl for well over a year. removing emirates fa cup replays was discussed in the early meetings and all parties accepted that they could not continue." former england midfielder izzy christiansen wants to raise awareness of bowel cancer when she runs sunday's london marathon. she is running in memory of her aunt

lucy, who died from the illness. i lost my aunty to bowel cancer 18 months ago, i was really close to her and it was a really tough time. i'm so determined when i finish playing football to do some fundraising and keep raising awareness, basically, of the early symptoms that people tend to not be aware of, or perhaps ignore. blood into. unexpected weight loss. they were things that became prominent. if i can use whichever platform i have got to educate people and make them aware, i think it is a job done and we have seen terrific work that footballers have done over the years, current players are doing with charities. if it can be 0.1%

better to put people in a better position to help others, then my intention is after i have done this marathon i would stop, i will do other things. marathon i would stop, i will do other things. lando norris beat lewis hamilton to take pole position for the sprint race at the chinese grand prix in a hectic wet session. the mclaren driver had his fastest lap time deleted and then reinstated in the final minutes of the session, as he beat hamilton by 1.261 seconds. hamilton's mercedes headed fernando alonso's aston martin, as world champion max verstappen managed only fourth. the red bull driver made errors on two laps before sneaking in at the end. yesterday, we heard how olympic champion diver tom daley is not ruling out continuing in the sport beyond the paris 2024 games and today he's shown just why he is feeling so optimistic right now. the 29—year—old took two years out after tokyo 2020 and was expected to retire, but is now back and has added to an impressive honours list with silver alongside new partner,

noah williams, at the world aquatics super final in china. they scored 440.37 from their six dives to finish behind the reigning world champions yang and lian from the host nation. their next event will be the british championship at the end of may. golf now and world number one nelly korda has made an encouraging start the chevron championship in texas, with the american tied in second after the opening round. she is seeking a fifth—successive victory on the lpga tour, which would match annika sorenstam, who did it in 2004/5, and the great nancy lopez, who achieved the feat back in 1978. korda shot a round of 68, four—under par. world number 94 lauren coughlin leads the way, though, with an opening round of six—under par.

look at this, this could be the biggest wave ever surfed. he can now reach speeds of up to 100 kilometres an hour, which enabled him to beat his previous best. this wave was measured at a whopping 28.57 metres. the previous one was just over 26 metres. it is awaiting confirmation if that is a new world record. you can get all the latest sports news at from the bbc sport app or from our website — that's bbc.co.uk/sport. from me and the rest of the team at the bbc sport centre, goodbye. hello, you're watching bbc news with me, catherine byaruhanga. the prime minister has called for an end to what he's called the uk's "sick note culture". in a speech on welfare

reform mr sunak said he is considering moving responsibility for assessing fitness to work away from gps to "specialist work and health professionals" in england. a record high of 2.8 million people are out of work as of february, according to the office for national statistics. we must be more ambitious in assessing people's potential for work. right now, the gateway to ill health benefits is writing too many off, leaving them on the wrong type of support and with no expectation of trying to find a job, with all the advantages that that brings. in 2011, 20% of those doing a work capability assessment were deemed unfit to work, but the latest figure now stands at 65%. that's wrong. people are not three times sicker than they were a decade ago and the world of work

has changed dramatically. now, of course, those with serious debilitating conditions should never be expected to work, but if you have a low level mobility issue your employer could make reasonable adjustments, perhaps including adaptations to enable you to work from home. if you're feeling anxious or depressed then, of course, you should get the support and treatment you need to manage your condition, but that doesn't mean we should assume you can't engage in work. here was the labour leader sir keir starmer�*s reaction earlier today. labour has, for a long time, been urging measures to be taken to deal with the problem of people getting back into work because it's inhibiting their ability to work, it's also restraining us in terms of what we can do with the economy, and that's why we've had a laser focus on how we get waiting lists down because the biggest problem here, frankly, is that the government's broken the nhs and waiting lists

are up at 7.6 million.
