She's better known as the eccentric grandmother from hit comedy Absolutely Fabulous - but 89-year-old June Whitfield has donned a habit for her latest role as Sister Ruth, a nun, in BBC soap EastEnders . She may be more familiar to viewers as the eccentric grandmother from Absolutely Fabulous. But June Whitfield’s next appearance will see her in a rather different role – as a nun in EastEnders. The 89-year-old is set to make a guest appearance in the BBC soap next week as Sister Ruth. Her character will offer advice to Jessie Wallace’s character Kat Moon, who is suicidal after struggling to deal with sexual abuse she suffered as a child. When her appearance was announced, the veteran actress said: ‘I have watched EastEnders for years, and have been so impressed by the standard of acting. ‘It was an absolute delight to work with Jessie Wallace and I am very excited to be part of the show.’ The actress has also starred in hit Terry and June and three installments of the popular Carry On film series. Her appearance comes after actor Timothy West, 80, who played character Stan Carter in EastEnders, criticised soaps for not valuing older characters and actors. West told the Radio Times last year: ‘I find they’re not valued so much and I suspect that’s one of the reasons why I’ve been brought in [to EastEnders].’ Whitfield's character Sister Ruth will be offering some words of encouragement to Kat Moon (Jessie Wallace) As Kat (played by Jessie Wallace) comes to terms with being abused as a child, Whitfield's character Sister Ruth is on hand. Whitfield said it was an 'absolute delight' to work with Wallace during her stint on the soap . Whitfield is best known for her role as mother of Edna, played by Jennifer Saunders, in Absolutely Fabulous . West, who was asked by the magazine if there were enough older people in soaps, added: ‘From what I hear, there hasn’t been enough interest in older characters. Or enough older characters to be interested in.’ West made his final appearance last month when his character died from prostate cancer. At the end of last year Linda Marlow joined the cast in a recurring guest role as Sylvie Carter. Before starting her role, the 74-year-old said: ‘The show has started to bring more older characters in and the ratings have gone right up so I don’t know if that is the reason. Maybe it shows that the core audience of the show are nans and mothers out there or maybe because the storylines are more exciting too. ‘The show has had the lovely June Brown for a long time but they have taken on Timothy West and Ann Mitchell in recent months. 'I don’t know if he ratings have gone up because there are now older characters in the show but I think it is very exciting to have good roles for older characters I really do. I guess the proof is in the pudding.’

Summary: June Whitfield will appear in the BBC soap next week as Sister Ruth . Her character will offer advice to anguished Kat, played by Jessie Wallace . 'It was an absolute delight to work with Jessie', Ab Fab actress said .


There will be a white-hot atmosphere at White Hart Lane on Saturday afternoon when Aston Villa come to town but Tim Sherwood has got to keep his emotions in check. This is about what happens on the pitch, not the touchline. The Villa boss is a passionate man but he can’t afford to let things get personal. He did a good job at Tottenham — he’s never afraid to talk about having the best Premier League win percentage of any Spurs boss — but was still not trusted with the job long-term. That will hurt. He was in charge of the youth set-up for years and the club are now reaping the rewards with a team full of academy players, but he is more than just a company man. Aston Villa manager Tim Sherwood returns to White Hart Lane to face Tottenham this weekend . When he was finally given a shot at the top job his personality came flooding through. Incredibly driven and extremely confident, he did not take long to make a mark but it was an uneasy relationship and did not last long. That was a shame, because he is talented and I like to see as many former players as possible in managerial roles. There is so much knowledge to harness. At Aston Villa, he has set the emotional bar high but it’s working. Villa were lacking confidence all season and it looked like they lacked the ambition to win games. Sherwood’s intensity has sparked them back to life. He has revived Christian Benteke in the same way as he did for Emmanuel Adebayor last season. Sherwood clearly targets players he feels can make the biggest impact and sets to work. Sherwood lets his feelings be known as he celebrates a goal at Villa Park against Queens Park Rangers . Sherwood launches his jacket to the ground in celebration after Aston Villa pulled level against QPR . Sherwood grimaces as the Villa mascot - wearing the famous Tim Sherwood gilet - embraces him . The big Belgian has seven goals in five games and looks a top player again. He was not affecting games but now his team-mates find him early. There’s nothing wrong with being direct and Benteke is a beast when you get him on the ball. Sherwood is still searching for a balance in midfield but he has given Charles N’Zogbia a chance and still has an eye on youth with talent such as Jack Grealish coming through. Sherwood’s emotional style can be great for a player — his antics on the touchline prove how much it means to him — but it has its drawbacks. He is never afraid to tell his players what he thinks of them. That encourages some but footballers can be sensitive souls. The Villa squad won’t like being called ‘icing-on-the-cake players’ and I’m sure a few at Tottenham will remember being told they ‘lack character’ and ‘are too nice’. Sherwood certainly knew how to get the best out of Tottenham striker Emmanuel Adebayor . Big Belgian international Christian Benteke

Summary: Sherwood is a passionate man but he can’t afford to let things get personal . At new club Aston Villa, he has set the emotional bar high but it’s working . Christian Benteke has found a new lease of life at the Midlands outfit .


Ben Affleck today finally admitted the name of the slave ancestor he had censored from his past. The Oscar-winning actor posted on social media that a 'Benjamin Cole' of Georgia, an ancestor on his mother's side, was the relative dropped from the PBS show about his family history. The admission came the day after he apologized for lobbying for the removal of the truth about his family past from Finding Your Roots. Writing on his personal account he said: 'Lots of people have been asking who the guy was. His name was Benjamin Cole - lived in Georgia on my Mom's side about six generations back.' Scroll down for video . Ben Affleck has apologized after he demanded information about a slave-owning relative be withheld from a PBS show about his ancestry . Admission: How Ben Affleck finally came clean . Affleck took to Facebook to issue his apology . Close: Ben Affleck and his former Freedom Rider mother Chris Anne, seen last October in Los Angeles . His mother, Chris Anne, had featured in the show, not because her ancestor benefited from indenture, but because she had been a Freedom Rider. After appearing on Finding Your Roots and learning one of his ancestors was a slave owner, Affleck pushed the network to leave that information out of the program it was first revealed by DailyMail Online, a request the producers ultimately agreed to. However, the admission suggests Affleck may have more than one slave-owning ancestor. Another was named today by The Sun as James McGuire, who kept eight slaves on his farm in what is now Trenton in New Jersey in the 1840s. The affair has severely embarrassed the actor, a high-profile campaigner for liberal causes, who runs a charity for Africa. It has also plunged PBS into crisis, and according to a prominent commentator, 'diminished' Prof Henry Louis Gates Jr, the host of the show, who is a Harvard academic. Last night the actor apologized for asking producers to leave out the name in a post on Facebook, while also explaining his reasons for his decision. 'After an exhaustive search of my ancestry for Finding Your Roots, it was discovered that one of my distant relatives was an owner of slaves,' wrote Affleck. 'I didn't want any television show about my family to include a guy who owned slaves. I was embarrassed. The very thought left a bad taste in my mouth.' Affleck went on to say he lobbied for that information to be withheld after filming the episode. 'It's important to remember that this isn't a news program. Finding Your Roots is a show where you voluntarily provide a great deal of information about your family, making you quite vulnerable,' he explained. 'The assumption is that they will never be dishonest but they will respect your willingness to participate and not look to include things you think would embarrass your family.' He then added; 'I regret my initial thoughts that the issue of slavery not be included in the story. We deserve neither credit nor blame for our ancestors

Summary: Ben Affleck has revealed name of the slave-owning ancestor which he got PBS to cut from Finding My Roots . He says his Freedom Rider mother Chris Anne was descended from Benjamin Cole, a Georgia slave-owner 'about six generations' ago . Oscar winner apologized last night for having PBS show cut revelation of his slave-owning roots, which was first revealed last week by Daily Mail Online . 'I didn't want any television show about my family to include a guy who owned slaves. I was embarrassed,' he wrote on Facebook .

Second-placed Preston's quest to join Bristol City in the Championship was dented after they were held to a 2-2 draw against Gillingham, who grabbed an equaliser in stoppage time through Leon Legge. Jermaine Beckford's 10th goal in his past 19 appearances and Callum Robinson's effort had put North End two goals up, but Jermaine McGlashan and Legge left the Deepdale faithful despondent.

Jermaine Beckford scored his 10th goal of the season as Preston were held 2-2 by Gillingham . Swindon remain in the automatic promotion hunt too following a 4-2 win at Rochdale, who have still never beaten the Robins at Spotland. A hat-trick from Ben Gladwin and Michael Smith's strike had put Swindon 4-0 ahead before Ian Henderson's penalty and Nathan Thompson's own goal prevented the hosts from suffering a thrashing. Dale fell seven points behind Chesterfield as they strengthened their grip on the final play-off spot by hammering Colchester 6-0. Gary Roberts and Sam Clucas both claimed doubles and Dan Gardner and Jimmy Ryan also found the net to give the Spireites breathing room in sixth position. At the other end of the table, Crewe were the only one of the sides on 47 points to pick up anything, with a 1-1 draw at Peterborough enough to move them out of the bottom four. Lauri Dalla Valle's goal had put the Alex ahead before Conor Washington's equaliser stopped Steve Davis' side earning three points on the road. Crawley replaced the Railwaymen in the relegation zone as they were thumped 5-0 by Walsall, Jordy Hiwula bagging a brace and Kieron Morris, Andy Taylor and Jordan Cook all scoring too. Rob Jones' header gave Doncaster a 1-0 triumph over Leyton Orient, and while the O's avoided slipping into the bottom four, they were joined on 47 points by Notts County. Ricardo Moniz's first home game in charged ended in a 1-1 draw with Barnsley, Hungarian Balint Bajner rescuing a share of the spoils in stoppage time following Sam Winnall's early opener for the Tykes. Already relegated Yeovil claimed a first win of the Paul Sturrock era as Stephen Arthurworrey got the winner in a 1-0 success over fifth-placed Sheffield United. Elsewhere, late goals denied Oldham and Port Vale 1-0 away wins over Coventry and Scunthorpe. Sky Blues defender Reda Johnson cancelled out Danny Philliskirk's effort in the midlands, while Kyle Wootton's header in the fifth minute of stoppage time for the Iron levelled an earlier goal from Richard Duffy.

A British tourist has drowned in a pool in a luxury villa in Spain, just hours after arriving on holiday. Brian Nicol, 32, dived into a swimming pool at a luxury holiday villa in the Costa del Sol, where he was staying with friends, but failed to resurface. His desperate friends dragged Mr Nicol, who was born in Glasgow, out of the water and tried to save him. Brian Nicol, 32 from Glasgow, Scotland, died while staying in a villa in Nueva Andalucia like the one pictured . Police and paramedics arrived shortly after the incident took place around 8.30am on Easter Sunday morning, but Mr Nicol had died. Officers said early evidence suggests his death was a tragic accident, but they will try to establish whether he suffered a blow to the head or a digestion problems which meant he couldn't swim.

A post-mortem was due to take place on Monday morning at Malaga's Forensic Medicine Institute. A police spokesman said: 'The incident is still being investigated but all the evidence at this stage is pointing towards the death being the result of a tragic accident.' Mr Nicol is believed to have travelled to Spain with a group of a dozen friends, who rented a villa in the exclusive residential neighbourhood Nueva Andalucia. Mr Nicol is understood to have gone on a night out in Marbella, pictured, in the hours before he died . Sources close to the investigation said they had been told the group had gone out for the evening before returning to the villa to carry on partying around the pool. One said: 'Our understanding is the victim had dived into the pool and swum underwater two or three times during the night without any problem but failed to surface the last time he jumped in. 'Although he appears to have drowned, it's too early at this stage to say why it happened.' Forensic experts are expected to examine whether the dead man suffered a blow to the head or digestion problems which caused stomach cramps and may have led to him drowning. An investigating judge has been put in charge of a routine judicial probe into the incident. A spokesman for paramedics involved in trying to revive Mr Nicol said: 'We received a call at 8.40am on Sunday and found a foreign man lying by the pool when we arrived. Paramedics tried to revive him but could do nothing to save him. 'An investigation into the death is now underway.' The group has only arrived in the Costa del Sol, an area popular with British tourists, for a holiday on Saturday . Nueva Andalucia, the area where the tragedy happened, is a favourite of well-heeled British expats and holidaymakers. It is a short drive from the millionaire playground paradise of Puerto Banus and boasts several high-quality golf courses. Max Clifford owns a luxury apartment near

A King Charles Spaniel suffered three degree burns from a pad used to keep him warm during a scan which vets had heated up in a microwave. Twelve-year-old Alfie underwent a general anaesthetic for an MRI scan at the Animal Health Trust clinic in Newmarket, Suffolk. The pet, who is also completely deaf, had the scan, last month after his owner Lynne Edwards from Huntington in Cambridgeshire, noticed a lump behind his ear. Alfie's owner Lynne Edwards, said she only realised something was wrong with the pet when he started to refuse food and found puss oozing from his back . But when Alfie returned from the clinic she realised something was wrong when he started refusing food and found puss oozing from his back. She then took him to a local vet, where staff clipped his fur and exposed the severe burns in his back. Ms Edwards, 64, then discovered that a pad used to keep her dog warm while he had the scan got too hot after it was heated in a microwave.

Alfie is now on medication while his wounds heal, but could face surgery to remove some of the skin around the burns. Ms Edwards, an interfaith minister, is now calling on all vets to ensure they heat up the pads correctly and monitor them adequately. The Animal Health Trust confirmed their vets are now using an incubator to heat the pads. A spokesman said: 'We pioneered the use of MRI in animals back in the 1990s and since then we have scanned more than 20,000 animals. 'In the last five years, around 3,000 of these patients would have had heat pads to maintain their body temperature. 'To the best of our knowledge, we have never seen anything like this before in any of the AHT’s patients. 'We understand how upsetting this situation must be for Lynne Edwards and her family, and have carried out a full investigation. 'We have reviewed, and are updating, our Standard Operating Procedure for the use of heat pads. 'We are also standardising the way in which all heat pads are heated at the AHT.'

Yaya Toure's attacking gifts aren't enough to make up for his defensive deficiencies anymore, said Gary Neville in a scathing attack on the Ivorian following Manchester City's 4-2 derby loss to United. Manuel Pellegrini's City were poor for all but the opening 15 minutes against Louis van Gaal's side at Old Trafford and Neville, speaking on Sky Sports, is certain big changes are afoot for the club. 'It's a crossroads for them now,' Neville said as City drifted four points behind their third-placed cross-city rivals who are now one point off Arsenal in second. Yaya Toure's defensive lapses are costing Manchester City, claims Sky Sports pundit Gary Neville . Niall Quinn and Graeme Souness joined the chorus of criticism of the under-fire Ivorian . 'There is definitely going to be change at Manchester City, whether it's players, the manager, people above. Certainly some players. 'There are some weeds in the garden and you've got to get them out of the changing room pretty quick. You cannot carry passengers.' Neville singled out Toure as an example of the 'weeds' at the Etihad in a scathing attack. 'He does that much for the team in an attacking sense you live with maybe the consequences of that defensively,' he said. 'But when the balance tips to a point when going forward isn't quite as effective as it once was, you've got to do something different because the defensive side is poor. Neville predicts changes at Manchester City and says the club need to get rid of 'weeds in the garden' 'If I was a player in that dressing room looking at him in central midfield thinking you're not chasing back, you're not running around, you're not sprinting for the ball. There might be a physical problem that he cannot do it, let alone if he doesn't want to do it. I think there's definitely going to be some changes.' Graeme Souness, also on Sky Sports, even suggested the 31-year-old's work when his side doesn't have the ball is a factor in their disappointing Champions League results in recent years. Neville accused Toure of a 'complete dereliction of (his) duty' when marking Marouane Fellaini and blamed his lack of tracking back for United's third goal from Juan Mata. City players' heads drop after conceding the fourth goal on Sunday their their cross-city rivals . 'He cannot play in a two in midfield against an opposition of any quality,' said Neville on Sky Sports. 'Against maybe one of the lesser teams at home you can put him in there and play with two up top, but against any team of quality you've got to shift him out of that position in the centre of midfield. 'There are too many examples, too much evidence when watching him where he cannot do his job, simple as that. As a central midfield player in the big matches he just cannot do it.' Souness said Toure's become 'a bit of a liability' for City in the past two years, despite being instrumental to their Premier League title win last season. Marouane

Summary: Manchester City lost 4-2 to Manchester United at Old Trafford on Sunday . Yaya Toure was the subject of scathing criticism on Sky Sports . Gary Neville said Toure cannot handle central midfield against 'quality' Neville used Ivorian as an example of 'weeds in the garden' at City .


The Married at First Sight star who once considered leaving her groom at the altar because she was unimpressed with his looks has revealed that she is finally ready to physically consummate their marriage, as her feelings for her new husband continue to grow. All three couples began their real journey towards domestic bliss on last night's episode of the FYI reality show, as the newlyweds searched for new homes to call their own, but, surprisingly, it was Jaclyn Methuen and Ryan Ranellone who were brought closer together by process. And the two even ended the first day in their new home sharing a bedroom together. 'Now I am looking at him in a sexual way instead of just looking at him like he's my bud,' the 30-year-old said of her new husband. Scroll down for video . Look of love: Jaclyn Methuen and Ryan Ranellone enjoyed a bottle of wine during their first night at their new apartment in Astoria, Queens, on last night's episode of Married at First Sight . Next step: The newlyweds later headed to their bedroom leaving viewers to wonder whether they finally 'consummated their marriage' And while viewers have to wait until next week's episode to see if the newlyweds did indeed take their relationship to the next level, Jaclyn hinted that physical intimacy is definitely going to develop - and soon. 'We haven't consummated our marriage yet, but it seems like [in] the imminent future that is going to happen,' she told the cameras coyly. Jaclyn previously noted that she hadn't had sex in two years and she hoped it was like 'riding a bike'. The episode began with Ryan, 29, who lives in Stony Brook, Long Island, with his mother and his teenage niece Kayla, traveling over three hours to spend his first night at Jaclyn's home in Union, New Jersey. And despite Jaclyn’s initial reluctance to show any kind of enthusiasm for the marriage, it was clear that the pair had slowly started working towards a mutual feeling of respect – and romance. Ryan couldn’t have been more thrilled about seeing his wife’s abode, admitting that the closer he got to her home, the more excited he became to see his new wife. Meanwhile, Jaclyn was delighted to show Ryan her home, noting that she sees the potential for their relationship more than ever. Can't do it: Ryan visited Jaclyn's apartment in Union, New Jersey but told her it was too far away from his real estate job in Long Island . Major compromise: During dinner, the couple agreed to move to Astoria because it was the halfway point from their two homes . 'I am actually really excited he is coming over. I miss Ryan when he is gone, and it is surprising that I miss him - surprising for me because I don't really miss anybody,' she admitted. While the couple enjoyed a nice evening together, it quickly became apparent that the commute from the New Jersey location was too far for Ryan, who works as a real estate agent in

Gone are the days when a few strategically-placed tissues was all you needed to give cleavage a boost - now Japanese women are using ribbons. The fad involves women tying a blue ribbon under the breasts and in a loop over the arms, tying them at the back, so every time they lift their arms, their curves become more prominent. The idea was inspired by a popular 'anime' cartoon character whose ribbon-bound arms and chest has become her signature. Scroll down for video . A trend in Japan has seen young women tying blue ribbon under their breasts for a better cleavage . In the show, called Is It Wrong To Pick Up Girls In A Dungeon, heroine Hestia is depicted with a cartoonish face and outsized eyes, her hair in long bunches that taper to her thighs. Like her Greek goddess namesake, she wears white - but that's where the comparisons end. Her frock is short, backless, with a plunging neckline and comes with matching white gloves. Added to this is her distinctive blue ribbon, looped tightly around her pneumatic torso, and tied with the bow resting on her upper arm. The trend is inspired by the anime character Hestia from Is It Wrong to Try to Pick Up Girls in a Dungeon . The ribbon is tied under the breasts and over the arms so that they are uplifted every time the arms are raised . The trend has seen many Japanese women uploading pictures of their successes online . But bizarrely Hestia's signature has taken off with the fans of the show. It has not only been picked up by cosplayers, who like to dress up as their favourite anime characters, but it has also been copied by ordinary girls who have been posting their own Hestia-inspired images online. The trend has even extended to toys and collectable items, with some snaps showing dolls in a copycat costume, and even a Lego figure designed to look remarkably like the anime character. While some women opt for a single loop around their chest and arms, others tie the ribbon once under their breasts and then around once again to rest on the upper arms to give cleavage a bigger boost when lifting their arms. Fans have even created detailed diagrams on how best to tie the ribbon . Both ordinary women and those who practice Cosplay (pictured) have tried the trend .

Summary: Women are wearing the ribbon and posting pictures on social media . The breast-lifting look is inspired by the anime character Hestia . Ribbon is tied so that when the arms move up, the breasts are lifted .


Imagine a future where humans are skiing on the surface of a distant moon and living in floating cities on Venus - while Earth lies in ruin. That’s the future envisioned by an artist in a fantastic series of ‘tourism’ posters, showcasing his dream for how we might one day explore the stars. And he hopes the posters encourage us to expand our presence into the solar system - especially as our planet is vulnerable to cosmic disasters. Scroll down for video . Artist Frank McKeever from Florida created these amazing posters. They show how we could colonise various worlds in the solar system. Included are humans skiing on a moon of Uranus and living in cities on Mars. Others show life on Europa and near Saturn - and a destroyed Earth (shown) The posters were created by artist and entrepreneur Frank McKeever, 28, from St Augustine in Florida and his colleague Miranda. Mr McKeever runs an art business called Science Hype with his wife Nicole, where each of these posters can be bought. All the posters seen here are hand-drawn, and then taken into Photoshop and Illustrator to finish them off. Mr McKeever told MailOnline his inspiration for the posters came from his love of travel, retro-style designs and a love of space. ‘To us, it's reminiscent of ads that were displayed during the 60s, and seeing as that was the time of the Space Race, it just made sense to present space posters in that medium,’ he said. Perhaps the most striking image is the one of Earth seemingly destroyed and uninhabitable. It’s a future that has left many experts to recently call for more effort to be made to protect Earth from threats such as asteroids - and expand our presence into the solar system. ‘The destroyed Earth was big for me,’ said Mr McKeever. ‘I began thinking about the possibility of being hit by an asteroid - especially with the fact that a huge one just flew awfully close to us a few days ago.’ Another poster shows humans living on the surface of Mars in cities, which Frank says he thinks is ‘very possible’. He added: ‘I can see that happening in my lifetime. And I think it should.' On Mercury - the closest planet to the sun - is a large crater 960 miles (1,550km) wide called the Caloris Basin, which Mr McKeever thinks we might explore (left). Colonisation of Mars in the form of a city, meanwhile, is something that may also be a possibility (right) Venus is known to have an Earth-like band in its atmosphere about 30 miles (50km) above the surface, where some have said it could be possible to place floating space colonies (shown) Neptune has 14 known moons, the largest of which is Triton, which Mr McKeever thinks we might colonise (left). Maybe one day we will also return to the moon (right), with a destroyed Earth in the background - while one of the Apollo flags has been bleached white from radiation . Owing to the orbits of Earth

A New York photographer built an elaborate indoor set on a Brooklyn sidewalk for a man to propose to his girlfriend on Valentine's Day. Justin Bettman caught the media's attention a few months ago when he began his 'Set in the Street' project. Bettman, sometimes with the help of designer Gozde Eker, would build sets that, in pictures, looked like the inside of a living room, child's bedroom, or a bathroom complete with a clawfoot tub. Jose Luis proposed to his girlfriend on a set designed and built by New York photographer Justin Bettman . Although it looks like a dining room, the photo shoot actually took place on the edge of the water in Williamsburg, Brooklyn, where the couple had their first date . But zoom out of the picture and it was revealed that Bettman was actually building these sets right on the street, using mostly furniture that had been given away or left for garbage. Bettman's work caught the attention of Jose Luis, who saw a feature on the photographer in New York Magazine and sent him an email with an idea, according toPetaPixel. 'I am planning to propose to my girlfriend, and I was wondering if there is a way for you to help me do it,' he wrote. 'As you can understand, I am not the richest man in the world. I am simply in love.' Bettman said after he read the email there 'wasn't even a question' on whether he would say yes. 'Of course I was going to build a set for this guy to propose on,' he said in a video chronicling the proposal. Bettman told Daily Mail Online that Luis' girlfriend thought they had been cast in a photo shoot before Luis got down on one knee and popped the question .

Bracing Skegness is one of the most popular places in Britain to own a holiday home, according to new figures out today. The Lincolnshire resort, famous for its giant Butlin's holiday camp and sprawling caravan parks, joins picturesque places such as St Ives and Windermere in the top ten league of towns for holiday property. Billy Butlin located his first holiday park at Skegness in 1936 and it still attracts 400,000 visitors a year. A railway poster promoting the town once famously boasted 'Skegness is so bracing'.

Scenic: The Lincolnshire resort joins picturesque places such as St Ives (pictured) and Windermere in the top ten league of towns for holiday property . It is number five among the UK's holiday home hotspots behind Windermere in the Lake District and Newport in Pembrokeshire. The research revealed that 165,000 people in England and Wales have holiday homes. Cornwall, with its 300 mile coastline, is the nation's holiday home hotspot, with more than 10,000 holiday properties located there, six per cent of the total. Gwynedd, home to Snowdonia national park and north Norfolk with its sandy beaches and salt marshes, complete the top three.

'This time is often limited, which means it is essential to keep the property and its contents in top condition all year round. Peter Olivey, an estate agent in the Cornish resort of Padstow, said: 'Cornwall ticks a number of important boxes for second home owners with its coastal location and abundance of activities. 'It's a true holiday haven without the hassle or cost of going abroad. The local property market here is competitive but with a number of new developments springing up and mortgage rates much lower than they have been, there's still plenty of opportunity for prospective buyers.'

A real-life Willy Wonka has laid claim to making the most extravagant chocolate creation - a seven-foot-tall, five-foot-wide Easter Egg made using 352lbs (160kg) of chocolate. Jan Hansen's egg is so big that it took him three days to put together and is made from layers of Belgian chocolate which covers an iron frame. The creation had to be completed using a step ladder and is the equivalent of 1,600 chocolate bars. Jan Hansen with his 7ft tall Easter egg which he will sell off in pieces to raise money for St Barnabas Hospice . Mr Hansen hopes to raise £1,000 from the sale of the egg for St Barnabas Hospice. The giant treat, which has since been wrapped in cellophane complete with a bow on top, was made with melted chocolate which had to be tempered overnight. The 58-year-old chocolatier commissioned an iron worker to make a special frame for his egg, which was then wrapped in grease proof paper and cling film, before being covered in chocolate. Due to the nature of chocolate contracting after it cools, Mr Hansen had to add layer upon layer of chocolate using a palette knife over a three-day period. He then finished the egg off using a 'rough bark' finish. Mr Hansen, who has been in the chocolate business for almost three decades, currently has the egg on display at his shop Hansen's Chocolate House in Folkingham, Sleaford, Linconshire . Layers of chocolate cover an egg-shaped iron frame which the chocolatier had specially commissioned . In the past he has made giant Easter eggs but never one that has sized up to his current creation which measures five feet in width. On Easter Sunday the egg is to be cracked using a hammer before it is sold off to punters who have already been sizing up the egg. Mr Hansen said: 'It is a fair size and it makes a massive difference compared to the others I have made in the past. 'It's quite fortunate that the conservatory has air conditioning and that it has double doors so we can get it out. 'The actual making was the easy part but I did have a few sleepless nights thinking about it. It was almost like chocolate cladding, I made big sheets of chocolate and put them on the side of the frame. 'It's pretty thick. Nothing tastes quite as good as Easter Egg chocolate and on Easter Sunday customers are going to take it apart and I'm going to crack it with a big hammer. It was exhausting, but it is fantastic to see the look on people's faces. 'I didn't expect people would want to buy the chocolate but it helps to raise more money for the hospice. When they see it they almost don't have to say anything you just have to look at their faces.The kiddies are lost for words, one little boy who was four and funnily enough called Charlie couldn't take it in that it was an Easter Egg. I think it scared him.' The iron frame was wrapped

Summary: Jan Hansen's giant egg is the equivalent of 1,600 chocolate bars . Egg will be sold at Hansen's Chocolate House in Folkingham Linconshire . All proceeds raised from the sale to be donated to St Barnabas Hospice .

A cleaner who feared a body he found was a murder victim had in fact found a 900-year-old mummy. The preserved remains were discovered in a cardboard box by street cleaners in north-western Peru. The mummy, thought to date back to 1100 AD, was found wrapped in rope and dumped inside the box in front of an archaeological dig in the city of Trujillo. Scroll down for video . Grim discovery: Street cleaners who found the remains initially feared they had stumbled across a murder victim . It is thought to have been stolen from the archaeological site known as Chan Chan which was the capital of the Chimu Empire, an urban civilisation that appeared on the Peruvian coast around 1100 AD. The discovery was made in the early hours of the morning as the cleaners swept up the streets close to the dig. Cleaner Otilio Padilla Miramontes, 54, said: 'It looked just like any other box dumped on the streets. Well preserved: It turned out the 'victim' was in fact a stolen, 915-year-old Peruvian mummy . Forensics: Police were called by the cleaners who made the discovery by an archaeological dig site in Trujillo . Wrapped up: The mummified remains were discovered in a box, wrapped in rope, by cleaners in Peru . 'But when I opened it I nearly died of heart attack as I saw this grinning skull staring up at me. 'I had no idea it was an ancient mummy, I thought it was someone who had been murdered so I immediately called the police.' A police spokesman said: 'We quickly established that this was not a recent skeleton. 'But we are now investigating how it ended up in a box outside of the main archaeological site. 'Our suspicion is that someone tried to steal it and had maybe left it in the box to collect later.' The remains were taken to the regional Directorate of Culture for examination. A spokesman there said: 'This is not a Chimu mummy and is most likely pre-Hispanic suggesting it is from another culture pre-dating the Hispanic arrival.'

Summary: The stolen Peruvian mummy was abandoned by archaeological dig site . Street cleaners found the remains in a box and called police . Believed stolen from Chan Chan capital of the Chimu Empire .


Old-stager Jamie Peacock scored a try double as Leeds claimed a 20th successive victory over Salford. The 37-year-old Rhinos prop had not scored a try for almost 12 months but went over twice in the first half to help the Super League table toppers to their fifth win in a row. Salford's last home win against the Rhinos was a 21-12 Regal Trophy victory at The Willows in November 1993 and their wait goes on after a 28-18 loss. But their depleted side turned in a battling show, trailing 16-12 at half-time, before slipping to only their second defeat in the last eight games. Jamie Peacock broke his try drought with a double for Leeds in their win over Salford on Sunday . Full-back Niall Evalds followed up his two-try show against Wigan with another brace with the Red Devils other touchdown from Lama Tasi. Peacock crossed for his side's first two tries before Ash Handley, the outstanding Rob Burrow and Zak Hardaker went in to seal a hard-fought win in difficult conditions. Salford, already without the suspended Rangi Chase and Weller Hauraki, were shorn of another six regulars but coach Iestyn Harris was not taking the voluntary option to rest any of his players before Saturday's cup tie at Leigh. His hand was forced with Tommy Lee, Kevin Locke, Josh Griffin, Cory Paterson and brothers Jordan and Adam Walne all injured. Harris handed debuts to Under-19 captain Ryan Lannon - cousin of Gareth Hock - and 20-year-old Matty Gee with the back-row pair starting in the bench. Apart from injured wingers Tom Briscoe and Ryan Hall, the Rhinos were also missing Kallum Watkins against the club where he started as a junior, Jamie Jones-Buchanan and Kylie Leuluai. Kevin Sinfield used the strong wind to his advantage from the start with his kick off blowing back to give his side possession. But handling errors by Peacock and Handley gave Salford confidence although Leeds had the first chance to go ahead after 16 minutes. Ben Jones-Bishop spilled a pass in the wind with Danny McGuire pouncing on the loose ball 40 metres out but was hauled down by Theo Fages. The Rhinos did manage to go in front after 22 minutes when Peacock charged over from close range after Salford conceded back-to-back penalties with Sinfield tagging on the conversion. But the Red Devils hit back immediately with Fages' side-stepping run sending sub Tasi over with Michael Dobson's kick levelling the scores. Then Evalds shot through the Leeds defence to fire Salford into a 12-6 lead. Peacock struck again to level at 12-12 after being the quickest to react to McGuire's grubber kick. Salford thought they had regained the advantage four minutes before the break when Hardaker failed to gather Dobson's towering kick in the gale and Scott Taylor collected the ball to race over. But referee Matt Thomason ruled Taylor was offside before he was forced to hold up play when an advertising hoarding blew onto the pitch. The wind then came to the Rhinos aid with kicks by Liam Sutcliffe and Stevie

Summary: Jamie Peacock scored two tries for Leeds in their win over Salford . The victory is the Super League leaders' 20th in a row over the Red Devils . The Rhinos have now won their last five matches on the bounce .


It is a saddening site of great human and cultural loss following Nepal's devastating earthquake that has killed at least 4,000 people. But dozens of people have been clambering around the debris of the famed Dharahara Tower in Kathmandu to take selfies in front of the wreckage. They have been taking pictures amongst the rubble of the historic nine-storey structure, which has been reduced to an enormous pile of red brick dust. Scroll down for video . 'This is not right': A man takes a selfie at the historic Dharahara Tower that was damaged in Saturday's earthquake in Kathmandu, Nepal . Criticism: One rescuer in Nepal said those who were taking photographs of themselves and friends were not 'understanding the tragedy' But one rescuer in the Nepalese capital said those who were taking photographs of themselves and friends were not 'understanding the tragedy'. It is unclear how many people were killed in the tower in the quake-hit city, but it was believed to have been filled with tourists. Pawan Thapa, 21, a business student who arrived from the suburbs to help with the recovery effort, was dismayed by the scene. He said: 'This is earthquake tourism. This is not right. They are more interested in clicking their selfies than understanding that it is a tragedy.' Destroyed: It is unclear how many people were killed in the tower in the quake-hit city, but it was believed to have been filled with tourists . Taking a picture: The tower has been photographed far more than other buildings destroyed by the natural disaster, which struck on Saturday . But most of those taking pictures were said to be local residents capturing the devastation of their community, rather than tourists. The tower built by Nepal's royal rulers in the 1800s was one of the country's most treasured monuments. It has been photographed far more than other buildings destroyed by the natural disaster, which struck just before midday on Saturday. The 7.8-magnitude quake sent tremors through the Kathmandu Valley and set in motion an avalanche which swept the face of Mount Everest. Searching: A Chinese rescue team member takes a selfie during an operation to find victims trapped inside a collapsed hotel in Kathmandu . Before and after: The tower built by Nepal's royal rulers in the 1800s was one of the country's most treasured monuments . As well as the huge death toll, thousands more people were injured - and it was the worst such disaster to hit Nepal since 1934 when 8,500 died. The United Nations said today that it was releasing £10million from its central emergency response fund to help the earthquake victims. The World Food Programme is sending food and aid supplies to Nepal, saying that logistics and emergency response teams are already working there. And a Save the Children relief worker said waterborne and infectious diseases are a risk because people are living outdoors in crowded situations.

Joanna Goodall (pictured outside court) stole £19,000 from the Premier Inn hotel where she worked as a receptionist . A receptionist who stole £19,000 from the hotel she worked at has been told to pay back just £1. Joanna Goodall forged signatures of customers and colleagues for cash refunds at a Premier Inn in Newcastle and took the money for herself. Bosses noticed the high level of refunds and CCTV showed Goodall taking money from the till. The 30-year-old mother, who is pregnant, admitted the thefts between March 2013 and February 2014 at Newcastle Crown Court. Goodall, of Lemington in Newcastle, was given a nine-month suspended sentence but ordered to pay back just £1 under the Proceeds of Crime Act as she has no assets. Mr Recorder Wheeler told her: 'You have a number of personal issues, family issues and health issues. 'You were subject to a lot of stress as a result of other people leaning on you for support and trying to balance your life and keep everyone happy. The way you chose to do that ultimately was to steal from your employer.' Prosecutors had initially accused her of stealing £35,000, but accepted her guilty plea on the basis of the amount being around £19,000. Jonathan Devlin, prosecuting, said: 'This defendant was identified as creating false cash refunds. 'She had used cash refund receipts with forged signatures from customers and other members of staff involved in such refunds. 'She submitted them and took appropriate amounts of cash from the till. 'All available CCTV was viewed and she was seen on a number of occasions processing refunds with no customers present, taking money from the till and either putting it in her pocket or handbag.' Mr Devlin said: 'She was arrested by the police and accepted the theft of significant sums of money. 'She said no other employees were involved nor did they know what she was doing. 'The defendant said she knew there was no way it could have been repaid because of the way she disguised it.' Donald MacFaul, defending, said Goodall had worked for the company for seven years. He added: 'Things went awry in her life. In addition to emotional pressure, financial strain arose and she fell into temptation. 'She realised early on she would be found out but couldn't see a way to break the cycle. She still has outstanding debts.' Goodall was given a nine-month suspended sentence after admitting to stealing from the Premier Inn in Newcaste (pictured) and ordered to pay back just £1 as she has no assets .

Ryanair has taken the unprecedented step of banning passengers from bringing their own booze on board flights between Glasgow and the party island of Ibiza out of concerns for safety and comfort. The Dublin-based airline has informed passengers travelling on the notorious flight from Glasgow Prestwick Airport to the Spanish island that their alcohol purchases from duty free shops are no longer allowed in the cabin, and they risk being kicked off the flight if they don’t comply. Ryanair refused to explain the reason behind its decision, but it follows a handful of incidents involving boorish behaviour by inebriated travellers heading to the island for days of sun, booze and revelry. Passengers' hand luggage will be searched before they board at Glasgow Prestwick Airport, said the airline . An email sent to Ibiza-bound passengers and obtained by the Daily Record said: ‘Customers will not be allowed to carry alcohol on board and all cabin baggage will be searched at boarding gates. ‘Any alcohol purchased in airport shops or elsewhere must be packed in a suitable item of baggage, which will be tagged and placed in the aircraft hold free of charge. ‘Customers attempting to conceal alcohol will be denied travel without refund or compensation.’ In a statement to MailOnline Travel, a Ryanair spokesman said the airline made the decision after consultations with customers and airport officials. Passengers who are caught trying to sneak alcohol into the cabin risk being kicked off the flight . The spokesman said: ‘Those who have purchased duty free alcohol will be asked to either place their purchases in their cabin baggage and into the hold at the boarding gate, or leave their purchases behind. ‘The comfort and safety of our customers and crew is our number one priority and we will not tolerate unruly behaviour at any time.’ The spokesman declined to identify the incidents which sparked the ban or say what will happen to passengers caught trying to sneak alcohol on board. There have been problems with passengers opening alcohol purchased from duty free shops at Glasgow Prestwick Airport and imbibing on the flight to Ibiza. Passengers who purchase booze from duty free shops at Glasgow Prestwick must place it in the luggage hold . Last year a flight made headlines when an online video showed passengers chanting and swearing. Rowdy passengers were recorded singing the theme to Dambusters and chanting ‘Here we, here we, here we f****** go’ after the plane landed. Travellers who didn’t join in appeared anxious or agitated with the scene unfolding just rows in front of them, and cabin crew were shown looking on helplessly as the singing continued uninterrupted. In 2013 a flight on the same route had to divert to Beauvais-Tille Airport, north of Paris, after a group of drunk passengers began causing trouble. Police said 14 men were thrown off the plane in France and were so inebriated they thought they had landed in Ibiza. It was believed the group had been drinking alcohol bought from duty free at Glasgow Prestwick before the two-hour flight. The budget carrier

Summary: Ryanair has informed passengers they cannot bring alcohol into the cabin . Decision follows a handful of incidents involving unruly behaviour .

Nick Clegg was heckled over his broken tuition fees pledge today as he ramped up his attack on George Osborne – with a stark warning that the Tory Chancellor is 'a very dangerous man'. The Deputy Prime Minister was met by protesters in Surbiton, south-west London, who chanted: 'Nick Clegg lied to me, he said uni would be free'. Mr Clegg ignored the protesters as he stuck to his message that only the Lib Dems can be trusted to balance the budget without hitting the poor. Scroll down for video . Nick Clegg was heckled by tuition fees protesters while out campaigning in Surbiton, South West London, today - while Lib Dem supporters tried to intervene . Nick Clegg was in Kingston and Surbiton to campaign with fellow Cabinet member, Secretary of State for Energy and Climate Change, Ed Davey today . The Lib Dem leader's campaign stop came after he launched a furious attack on the 'ideological' cuts planned by the Tories. Speaking to Tony Blair's former spin doctor Alastair Campbell in May's edition of GQ magazine, Mr Clegg said the chancellor's plans would do 'so much damage'. He added: 'I don't know of a developed economy that wants to do something as rigidly ideological as he wants to do, to balance the books through public spending reductions alone, not tax, with one section, the working poor, taking the biggest hit. 'I find it socially and morally unacceptable, but also economically a disaster.' The 'dramatic lurch to the right' involves a 'harder approach than anything the arch-Thatcherites would do' and would 'destroy public services', he said. Mr Clegg added: 'George Osborne is a very dangerous man with a very dangerous plan, and I will do everything in my power to stop it.' In contrast, Mr Clegg said the Prime Minister was 'a classic traditional shire Tory', adding: 'I can live with that.' He said Mr Cameron was 'very much a Tory, and in that tradition he is not too much about grand vision'. The Deputy Prime Minister launched a furious attack on the 'ideological' cuts planned by the Tories . Mr Clegg met seven-month-old Elise Popperwell and her mother Melissa Popperwell in South West London this morning . The Deputy Prime Minister said David Cameron was 'a classic traditional shire Tory', adding: 'I can live with that.' Asked about Ed Miliband, Mr Clegg said he was a 'perfectly nice guy, personable, as is David Cameron'. The Lib Dem leader said he wanted his party back in government 'because Osborne's ideological assault on public services has to be stopped' and 'Ed Miliband and Ed Balls' head-in-the-sand approach to public spending has to be challenged, because it would be really bad for the economy'. Treasury Secretary Danny Alexander meanwhile claimed that a top Tory told him 'you take care of the workers and we'll take care of the bosses', in a private Whitehall meeting to discuss the Coalition Government's priorities. Mr Alexander said it showed that David Cameron and George Osborne were guilty of 'breathtaking hypocrisy' for trying to claim responsibility for raising

A former NFL player has revealed that his mother demanded he pay her one million dollars as the cost for 'raising him for the last 18 years' after he was drafted into the professional league. Phillip Buchanon was a first-round draft pick for the Oakland Raiders, and seventeenth overall, when his mother made the request in 2002. Buchanon, who also played for the Houston Texans, Tampa Bay Buccaneers, Detroit Lions and Washington Redskins before retiring in 2011, discussed the incident in his recently released book New Money: Stay Rich. 'If my mother taught me anything, it's that this is the most desperate demand that a parent can make on a child,' he wrote in an exclusive excerpt released to Fox Sports. Former NFL player Phillip Buchanon (pictured here playing for the Oakland Raiders) has revealed his mother demanded he pay her one million dollars as the cost 'for raising him for the last 18 years' after he was drafted . 'The covenant of having a child is simply that you give your child everything possible, and they owe you nothing beyond a normal amount of love and respect.' But after years, Buchanon said he realized that his mother and family members were different - especially when money became involved. He told Fox Sports that he wrote the book to make sure 'the next generation of athletes doesn't make the same mistakes' he did when he finally got paid the big NFL bucks. Buchanon said he followed the 'unwritten NFL New Money Millionaire' rule and instead bought his mother a brand new big house, as well as paid for all her finances that did not include food or entertainment. But he soon realized that gift would come with its own problems. Instead of selling her old house, like he advised, Buchanon's mother rented it to his aunt. This left Buchanon paying for mortgage and maintenance payments for both houses for seven years. Buchanon asks rookies to consider certain questions before buying their family 'big-ticket purchases', such as whether the family member would be able to make the payments if they couldn't, or if the family member expected them to pay for upkeep 20 years later. The former football star said his mother never offered him the money she made from her sister's rent, and later blamed him for 'messing up her life' after he kicked her boyfriend out of the house he paid for. 'What she didn't see was that her boyfriend was pimping her and me out,' he wrote. 'He wasn't bringing anything to the table, just taking.' Buchanon said he bought his mother a house instead, which brought its own set of problems for years . Buchanon (pictured playing for the Tampa Bay Buccaneers) said his relatives also asked him for money, claiming they needed a check to pay for repairs and bills . Buchanon said he eventually became fed up and told his mother he would stop paying for her new house's upkeep after he paid off the mortgage. When his mother said the house was too large for her

Summary: Phillip Buchanon was a first-round draft pick for the Oakland Raiders in 2002 when his mother made what he called the 'desperate demand' Buchanon, who is now retired, instead bought her a brand new house . But she refused to sell her old house and rented it to her sister . So he ended up paying maintenance for both houses for seven years without getting any of the rent money . When Buchanon finally had enough his mother asked for $15,000 instead of a smaller house whose upkeep she could afford .


A man has been pressured into resigning from his role as a women's officer at a university student union after public pressure and an online petition demanded that he step down from the position. James Ritchie was voted into the job at the Tasmanian University Union with a clear majority over a female candidate more than three weeks ago. Despite his qualifications for the role and no gender specified in the job description, the reaction to a male being offered the position caused huge opposition which left Mr Ritchie feeling that the negativity impacted on him being able to do the job to the best of his ability. James Ritchie was forced to resign from his role as women's officer for the Tasmanian University Union after public pressure and an online petition opposed the decision to employ a male for the job . 'There has been a lot of public pressure for me to resign, a lot of interest groups that want me to resign,' Mr Ritchie told ABC radio. 'But the main thing for me was I felt my ability to be effective in the role was now diminished and that's the most fundamental thing.' The university's Women's Collective had launched a petition on the website change.org to have Mr Ritchie removed from his role in the TUU. The petition said Mr Ritchie 'was elected to the role of women's officer unconstitutionally and unethically and yet the TUU staff refuses to disqualify his candidacy'. However, TUU guidelines did not state a preferred gender for the role, saying only that 'an interest in higher education and student issues would be advantageous'. The university's student union has now introduced a requirement that candidates sign a statutory declaration confirming they identify as female . The state's anti-discrimination commissioner, Robin Banks, also said there was no legal reason why a man could not occupy the role of women's officer. 'In my opinion, it's irrelevant if (the position is) held by a female or a male. In this election I believe I was the best person for the role,' Mr Ritchie said. 'If you can't get a society where women feel they can approach men about a number of issues and men feel they can approach women about a number of issues, how do you really make progress?' The student union has now introduced a requirement that candidates sign a statutory declaration confirming they identify as female.

Summary: James Ritchie was voted into the job at the Tasmanian University Union with a clear majority over a female candidate more than three weeks ago . Mounting public pressure and an online petition forced him to resign . No gender was specified in the union's job description guidelines . But the union has now introduced that the applicant must be a female .


A new Reddit thread is offering some fascinating insights into the strange lives of men who have purchased mail-order brides. The discussion, which focuses on brides from Russia and the Philippines and has so far garnered more than 10,000 comments, asked users to spill the beans on what 'surprised' them the most when they started living with their spouses. '[She] spoke about sex the same way she spoke about housework,' wrote one, while another confessed: 'I could always tell she was uncomfortable. It seemed like she was just doing a job.' Ruse awakening: The Reddit thread asked users to spill the beans on what 'surprised' them the most when they started living with their spouses . One user described the process of 'ordering' a bride from Russia or the Philippines, where thousands of women are desperate to start a new life for themselves in Europe and the US. The fee to find a bride this way, according to this user, costs between $10,000 (£6,500) and $15,000 (£9,800), although others have said they paid as much as $50,000 (£32,700). 'Since a large amount of these foreign brides do not speak English, a person must hire a translator for phone and other forms of correspondence,' he explains. 'When a man becomes serious about a few women, he will want to purchase the girl’s address to send letters and gifts. 'Addresses usually will cost between $10 [£6.50] and $15 [£9.80}. A translator will also be needed for these letters which will normally add another $10 to $15 a letter.' Several people submitted stories not about themselves but people they know, and almost all of them noted that the men ordered their brides because they struggled socially. Booming: Russianbrides.com (pictured) now boasts an online community of more than one million hopefuls . Face value: Once a man has zeroed in on a woman he likes, he generally needs to hire a translator to communicate with her . 'My father brought my mum at an auction in Thailand a LONG time ago, it's pretty weird and he was kinda a creepy guy so basically what you'd expect,' one stated. 'I mean there's a reason these kinds of guys end up getting mail-ordered brides. Sometimes they are just super awkward, other times they are total d-bags,' another wrote. Several men, who had presumably since split with their mail-order brides, noted that the sexual chemistry was lacking. 'She would cook, clean, offer sex, whatever,' one wrote. 'Pretty much what you want from your wife. But the passion, emotion, warmth, everything that makes a marriage actually work was lacking. 'You could liken it to a gold digger but it was much worse. At least with a gold digger it isn’t painfully obvious, and you might actually convince yourself she likes some aspect of you.' Another found the opposite. 'The only thing I can think of is that she is very open about sexuality compared to most girls,' wrote one man, a 35-year-old who said he had cerebral palsy, and spent $22,000 [£14,395] to secure his bride. Just a chore: '[She]

Dina Amos-Larkin (above), 21, has been left paralysed from the neck down after falling 50ft from a hotel balcony in Salou, Spain . A British gymnast has been left paralysed from the neck down after falling 50ft from a hotel balcony. Dina Amos-Larkin was attending a four-day sports festival in Salou, Spain when she fell while talking to her mother on the phone on April 3. The 21-year-old law student, who represents Great Britain at trampolining, was in a medically-induced coma for two weeks and was told of her injuries when she was brought round a week ago. She told Simon Wright of the Sunday Mirror that authorities initially said the fall, from a fourth floor balcony at Hotel Jaime 1, was a suicide bid. 'That isn't the case - I spent the day doing sport and went drinking in the evening, but wasn't drunk,' she said. 'The balcony rail was lower than my waist and I think I just leaned back too far.' The student, from Poole, Dorset, claimed she is now stranded in hospital as she is waiting for her insurer AXA to review her case. A GoFundMe page has since been set up to raise £20,000 to get Miss Amos-Larkin, who is also captain of the Angels cheerleading squad at Surrey University, home. More than £13,900 has already been donated. The page reads: 'Dina Larkin suffered horrendous injuries including paralysis when she fell from a balcony during a student festival in Barcelona. 'Dina is an international gymnast and aspiring law student. But most of all she is a daughter, a sister and a friend to many. 'Her recovery has been halted because the costs of getting her back to the UK amount to over £10,000. And then there's the adaptive care she will need when she is home.' Her mother Audrey, 48, and father Stephen, 49, told the Sunday Mirror their 'hearts are broken'. The street the hotel is on (above) has lots of high-rise apartments with white rails lining each balcony . A GoFundMe page has since been set up to raise £20,000 to get Miss Amos-Larkin (above), who is also captain of the Angels cheerleading squad at Surrey University, home . 'We just want her home,' they added. Her last Tweet was a week before the incident, when she posted a photo of the cheerleading squad after the Team Surrey varsity and wrote: 'These kids know the score! @Surreyangels brought it home.' She added a picture of the sea on Instagram five days later and wrote: 'Enjoying that ocean spray. Let's hope it can cure this hangover #TOUR #spain #sunshine #ocean #saloufest #coastline #teamsurreytour2015.' A spokesman for AXA said: 'We are looking into the circumstances and until those investigations have been completed, it would not be appropriate to comment further. 'We are speaking to Dina and assisting with her repatriation.'

The federal government will be investing $4.1 million on a TV drama which is set to broadcast overseas as a way of deterring asylum seekers from entering Australian shores by boat. ABC program Lateline revealed the telemovie will be shown in countries such as Syria, Iraq and Afghanistan later in the year, urging asylum seekers not to trust people smugglers. The drama, commissioned by the Customs and Border Security Agency, will reportedly have a story-line which involves the Australian Navy and asylum seekers drowning at sea. The federal government will be investing $4.1 million on a TV drama which is set to broadcast overseas as a way of deterring asylum seekers from entering Australian shores by boat . The telemovie will be shown in countries such as Syria, Iraq and Afghanistan later in the year, urging asylum seekers not to trust people smugglers . An Immigration Department spokesperson would not clarify whether the government will fully fund the drama. However the spokesperson told Lateline that 'television soap operas and telemovies are proven media to reach the target audience when seeking to deliver complex messages'. 'Each broadcast will be accompanied by a major awareness campaign across television and social media,' the spokesperson said. Producing the show will be Sydney company Put It Out There Pictures. This comes as Prime Minister Tony Abbott stated that only the Coalition would be able to stop asylum seeker boats . Despite the multi-million dollar funding, Phil Glendenning - president of Refugee Council of Australia - told Lateline that he has doubts the show will discourage people from countries like Afghanistan and Syria. 'A TV show isn't going to stop people who are running from the Taliban,' he said. Mr Glendenning says the government should instead use the funds to help the United Nations High Commission for Refugees give asylum seekers better security. This comes as Prime Minister Tony Abbott stated that only the Coalition would be able to stop asylum seeker boats, the Guardian reports. 'I'm also confident that only this government can keep them stopped because any other government, I suspect, would quickly succumb to the cries of the human rights lawyers and others and what that would mean, very quickly, is that the people smugglers would be back in business,' he said on Thursday.

The UK's top prosecutor today told critics deriding her decision not to prosecute Lord Janner over alleged child sex offences to challenge her in court. Alison Saunders, the Director of Public Prosecutions, said she was 'not afraid' of a legal challenge because she is convinced the Labour peer is not fit to plead because of his dementia. And in her first interview since she announced Lord Janner would not face trial she refused to quit because 'making the right decision is not a resigning issue'. Fighting back: Alison Saunders, the Director of Public Prosecutions, said she was 'not afraid' of a legal challenge over her decision not to charge Lord Janner and said she would not quit . Victims and leading politicians have accused her of 'damaging public confidence' in the justice system with her ruling – even though there was a enough evidence to go ahead with a prosecution. Mrs Saunders admitted herself that three investigations into claims made by 25 alleged victims over 25 years were botched - but decided it was now too late to charge him. She told the Evening Standard today: 'If somebody wants to challenge my decision I'm not afraid. The proper way to challenge it is through the right to review or a judicial review. 'I'm confident that if they want to do that my decision will stand up. I thought long and hard before making it and I'm confident I got it right. My job is not to be populist. 'The medical evidence was very clear. He wouldn't be fit to stand trial, he wouldn't understand the questions, he wouldn't understand the process, he wouldn't be able to understand instructions. 'It's not to make decisions on the basis of what people want. It's about making the right decisions. Sometimes that means it won't be popular but if I'm fulfilling my duties as DPP that's the right thing to do.' Police began investigating Lord Janner, pictured, after allegations of historic child-sex abuse were made but now he is too ill to be put on trial . Last night it emerged Mrs Saunders overruled the advice of two of the country's most senior barristers to allow Lord Janner to avoid a trial. Clare Montgomery QC and child abuse expert Eleanor Laws QC, leading counsel to the investigation, offered advice which could have supported a move to prosecute. In particular, Mrs Laws pointed to overwhelming evidence and corroborating accounts by victims during the two-year police inquiry. But Mrs Saunders decided it was not in the public interest to put Lord Janner in the dock due to his Alzheimer's disease. Campaigners, MPs and victims believe a 'trial of the facts' could have satisfied the need to get to the bottom of the appalling claims against the peer, whatever his mental state. And MailOnline revealed last week that 19 dementia sufferers have been prosecuted for child sex offences and ten were in the past year. The Mail revealed today that Lord Janner signed over the deeds of his £2million home to his children at the height of the police

Summary: Alison Saunders won't quit because 'making the right decision is not a resigning issue' Head of CPS decided against pressing charges against Lord Janner . She was persuaded against taking a case by the Labour peer's dementia . She said: 'I thought long and hard and I'm confident I got it right'


A man deliberately drove his car straight through the front doors of a police station - and then managed to escape the scene in the damaged vehicle. The 42-year-old man allegedly threw a wheel spanner at a night security patrol car before recklessly driving his dark blue Ford Falcon ute at full speed towards the Harts Range police station just before 10pm on Sunday. Fortunately the station, which is remotely located about 240km northeast of Alice Springs in the Northern Territory, was vacant at the time of the incident before the culprit managed to escape in the smashed-up car. A man deliberately drove his dark blue Ford Falcon ute into the doors of the Harts Range police station . Territory Duty Superintendent Brendan Muldoon said police are looking for a 42-year-old male who was agitated and driving in a reckless manner. 'The man has allegedly thrown a wheel spanner at the Night Patrol vehicle and driven the car at speed towards the police station,' he said. 'The station, which was vacant at the time, has sustained damage to the front glass doors and rear roller doors.' The culprit managed to escape in the smashed-up car but wouldn't have got far without working headlights, a front number plate or a front bumper bar . Superintendent Muldoon said the alleged offender then drove off along the Plenty Highway. 'Police do not think he would have travelled far, as damage left behind suggests he would have no working headlights, no front number plate or a front bumper bar,' he said. 'The car may still have the rear number plate attached which is SA registered S145 AVI.' Police are urging anyone who has seen the dark blue Ford Falcon utility, with front and possible rear end damage, to contact police on 131 444 or call Crime Stoppers on 1800 333 000. Fortunately the station, which is remotely located about 240km northeast of Alice Springs in the Northern Territory, was vacant at the time of the dangerous stunt .

Prison officer Thomas Jordan Driver, 25, was arrested on Thursday. He and fellow Klan members planned to kill a black inmate after his release in retaliation for a fight, officials said . Three Florida prison officers who belong to the Ku Klux Klan have been charged with plotting to kill a black inmate after his release, officials said on Thursday. The KKK men believed the prisoner was infected with HIV and hepatitis and he bit one of them during a fight, officials said. Klans men Thomas Jordan Driver, 25, David Elliot Moran, 47, and Charles Thomas Newcomb, 42, each face one state count of conspiracy to commit murder, according to Florida Attorney General Pam Bondi's office. The supposed hit man was an FBI criminal informant who recorded those scenes and others over the past year. Investigators said he faked pictures of the black man's death to help build a case against three Klan members who worked at a Florida prison. The case is the latest black eye for the troubled state prison system. The state said the murder plot started after Driver, an officer at the Department of Corrections Reception and Medical Center in Gainesville, rural north Florida, had a fight with the inmate. Moran is currently a sergeant there. Newcomb was fired in 2013 for failing to meet training requirements, according to the department. Bondi's office said the three were also members of the Traditionalist American Knights of the Ku Klux Klan. The group has garnered attention in recent months for distributing flyers that likened protesters in Ferguson, Missouri, to terrorists. The FBI was alerted to the murder plot by a confidential informant inside the Klan, according to an arrest affidavit. Scroll down for video . David Moran, a prison employee (pictured left), who together with another employee of the Florida Dept. of Corrections and former employee Charles Thomas Newcomb (right) were arrested for plotting to kill a black inmate who had allegedly bitten one guard during a fight . The informant was present when Driver and Moran talked with Newcomb, identified as the KKK chapter's 'Exalted Cyclops' or leader, and recorded many of their conversations. In late 2014, authorities say Driver gave the Klan chapter, called a klavern, a photograph of the inmate, who'd been let out on supervised release. 'Both Driver and Moran ... told the (confidential informant) that they wanted (the inmate) 'six feet under',' the FBI's affidavit said. The informant recorded all three men making plans to murder the inmate, according to the affidavit. In the recordings, the men often refer to the inmate using a racial epithet. Their first attempt to find and kill the inmate failed and the informant recorded a conversation with Driver to confirm he still wanted him dead, the affidavit said. 'Do you want this guy terminated?' the informant asked. 'Yes sir,' Driver replied, according to the affidavit. The American Knights of the Ku Klux Klan has garnered attention for distributing flyers that likened protesters in Ferguson, Missouri, to terrorists. A recent flyer from the Klan provided byWTXL-TV is seen here .

Online blogging sensation Zoella has come under fire from Jamie Oliver's company over adverts for unhealthy foods that appear next to her vlogs on YouTube. Internet star Zoella, real name Zoe Elizabeth Sugg, has enjoyed meteoric success after her blog and video posts amassed a huge teen following on social media. Jamie Oliver's company, an enduring advocate for promoting healthy eating, has warned that young stars such as Zoella, 25, and fellow vlogger and boyfriend Alfie Deyes, 21, should be more aware of the adverts that appear alongside their posts. Wise words: Jamie Oliver's company has said that influential vloggers such as Zoella (right) should try and ensure adverts for unhealthy foods don't appear next to their posts . It comes after an investigation found that video blogs - known as vlogs – popular with children aged 11 to 17 are being hijacked by 30-second adverts for junk food and online gambling sites. Although some of these are for harmless products such as Dolmio pasta sauce or hair dye, others are for Haribo, Coca-Cola and for an online gambling website, according to the Independent newspaper. Oliver's own company says it has a deal with YouTube that ensures that the chef's channel on the video sharing website actively stops sugary food and drinks from being promoted next to his videos. On Sunday, Brighton-based Zoella posted a video entitled 'Stuff Your Mouth' with ThatcherJoe (My Brother). The video showed the star and her sibling trying to guess what each other was saying while filling their mouth with marshmallows. The post has already attracted over 1.5million views. The video blogger describes herself on her Twitter profile as 'YouTuber, Blogger, Friend & Pizza Addict'. Last year, she published her book Girl Online, which recorded record sales for a first-time author. On the back of her social media success, Zoella has also created her own beauty line. Her boyfriend has achieved similar success with more than three million subscribers signing up to his YouTube channel. The couple share a £1million Brighton home. Although the Advertising Standard Authority (ASA) currently prevents food that is high in fat, salt or sugar from being advertised on television shows that appeal to children under 16, there are no guidelines about video bloggers, despite their growing influence. Matt Wilson, spokesman for the ASA told FEMAIL that while 'television-like content' posted on YouTube was not yet subject to the same guidelines, the ASA was 'keeping an eye on the situation'. He said: 'A recently commissioned Independent Review into the impact of online advertising of food and soft drink products on children showed that the available evidence on advertising’s impact on children’s dietary choices is limited, and does not merit a change to the existing rules.' 'Where the TV and online rules differ is on scheduling. As the available evidence shows, media differ; with TV having the most persuasive, albeit a moderate, impact on children’s food preferences. 'This is why there are currently scheduling restrictions on TV (for foods that are classed as ‘high in fat salt or sugar’) that don’t apply online and

Summary: The chef and healthy food campaigner's company said influential stars should be careful about adverts appearing next to their video posts . Jamie Oliver's Food Tube channel has a 'firm agreement' with YouTube to stop ads for unhealthy foods running next to his own posts . The Advertising Standards Authority currently doesn't safeguard against unhealthy ads appearing on online videos, just television programmes .


A vigilante group has taken to the streets of Brisbane, spray-painting over offensive slogans on the side of campervans which they claim promotes violence against women. Close to 150 protesters gathered on Saturday afternoon to rally against van hire company Wicked Campers, after the brand failed remove 'sexist' paintings from their vans including the slogan, 'In every princess, there's a little sl*t who wants to try it just once'. The Brisbane-based company came under fire last year after over 120,000 Australians petitioned to have slogans eliminated from the fleet, prompting the company's CEO John Webb to promise in July last year to remove the slogans within six months. Over 120,000 people signed the petition to remove the offensive slogans in 2014 . Members of the Wicked Pickets protest group have started painting over slogans which they say are offensive . Wicked Pickets, a community action group, decided to take justice into their own hands after the company failed to live up to its promise, painting over slogans they have slammed as misogynistic and violent. 'We just want to make the point that sexist slogans like the ones on Wicked Campers might seem funny but actually contribute to sexual and physical violence against women,' Wicked Picket's spokesperson, Liz Upham, told Daily Mail Australia. Slogans found on the vans include, 'A wife: An attachment you screw on the bed to get the housework done', 'I wouldn't trust anything that bleeds for five days and doesn't die', and 'Your thighs won't touch if my head's between them'. The vans also feature cartoon paintings of novelty penises, breasts with the slogan 'Random Breast Testing', and sexualised images of men and women. Wicked Camper's CEO John Webb apologised for the offense the vans had caused many members of the community, and invited 'anybody who feels strongly offended by a slogan to either paint or tape over it'. Up to 150 women attended the rally in Brisbane on Saturday afternoon to protest the company's slogans . The women have started arming themselves with spray paint and removing the slogans . The members of Wicked Pickets have taken this literally, arming themselves with spray cans and painting over Wicked Camper slogans as they find them. 'I guess it’s illegal but we continually quote the fact that Webb invited us to paint the vans, which is our reasoning, along with trying to make a statement that these are not acceptable slogans,' said Ms Upham. '30 women have died at the hands of male partners this year so far. It might seem like long bow to draw but when there are vans driving around saying that a wife is attachment to screw in the bedroom and suggesting it’s all right to kidnap a women, it is really making a subtle suggestion that women are only good for sex and getting housework done,' she said. 'The fact that Wicked Campers are still driving around with slogans that encourage rape and violence doesn't seem possible. I'm appalled that there is no law to control this.' Ms Upham, who attended the rally on Saturday

Summary: Women in Brisbane are protesting offensive slogans on Wicked Campers . The group claims the slogans promote violence against women . In 2014 the company agreed to remove the slogans but hasn't happened . The group is spraying over slogans and posting pictures on social media . Over 150 protesters from Wicked Pickets gathered to rally against the vans .
