A young accountant fell down a 70ft cliff to his death when he ran from a taxi to avoid paying the fare. Graduate Jacob Phillips, 23, plunged down the cliff when he leapt over a fence in the dark. Mr Phillips had caught the cab home after a night out with friends in December – but didn’t have enough cash to pay for it. An inquest heard he ran from the driver, who gave chase at the seaside town of Penarth, South Wales. Cabbie Dave Sidaway told the inquest: ‘I stopped because I couldn’t see where I was going. I had no idea how much danger he was in.’ Jacob Phillips, 23, was found dead at the end of the disused Northern Promenade, a rocky area at the base of the cliff . The university graduate had been out drinking in Cardiff before catching a taxi with friends Padraig Crowley and Rory Robinson. Cardiff Coroner’s Court heard how the trio got out of the taxi to ‘use an ATM’ before making a run for it. ‘The plan was to go to Penarth but we did not have enough money for the taxi – I ran off in one direction, Jacob went in another direction,’ Mr Robinson told the inquest. ‘Running away from the taxi was a stupid thing to do.’ Mr Phillips, of Reading, Berks, was discovered the next day on the rocky beach by a dog walker. Paramedics arrived at the scene after his body was discovered in the morning by a dog walker . A long way down: Mr Phillips fell down this cliff after a night out. Tthe taxi driver said he would not have left him if he knew where they were . Recording a verdict of accidental death, coroner Andrew Barkley said: ‘It is likely that he became disorientated and there is no evidence that he knew where he was at the time. ‘There is no way he could have known the danger that lay in front of him. The following day with the benefit of light it was clear the danger he faced by the sheer drop off the cliff just yards beyond the fence.’ Mr Phillips worked for Pretty Green, the clothing label run by Oasis star Liam Gallagher. He had grown up in Barry, South Wales, before studying accountancy at the University of Birmingham. The inquest heard that he had returned to Wales for Christmas and had been staying with his mother in the upmarket Cowbridge area. Mr Phillips had planned to stay at a friend’s house but he and his friends didn’t have enough money to complete the journey, so decided to trick the driver by ‘dodging’ the fare. Mr Phillips ran off into the ‘pitch black’ and fell down a cliff at the end of the disused Northern Promenade – also called The Dardanelles. Police search the scene at the bottom of the cliff where his body was discovered .

Summary: Jacob Phillips plunged down cliff after leaping over a fence in the dark . Got out of the taxi to 'use an ATM' before running away, inquest heard .

A New York City doorman says he's been fired for being too good at his job. Ralph Body, up until March 29, manned the front desk of the luxury 27 on 27th building in Long Island City, Queens. The 41-year-old told the New York Post he 'gave his life' for his wealthy tenants and would go out of his way to do any personal tasks they asked--all while keeping a cheerful smile on his face. But that willingness to go above and beyond for tenants--by taking care of pets and watering plants, among other chores--didn't sit well with the 2-year-old building's management, Body says. 'They said, 'We know you did it for the right reasons, but unfortunately...you're too nice to the tenants,'' he told the Post. Too nice? Queens doorman Ralph Body was a smiling fixture in the lobby of the luxury 27 on 27th building in Long Island City, but was fired for, according to him, being too nice . When Body insisted he only did what was asked of him, he says his employers with Heatherwood Communities said it didn't matter. 'Unfortunately, in this case, nice guys finish last,' Body says his higher-up told him. According to the Post, the tenants who so adored Body have now taken up his cause with a petition to get him reinstated to his job. 'Most tenants, especially those who have lived in the building since it opened, can attest to Ralph's kindness and eagerness to make people feel safe and welcome,' the petition reads. 'The ruthlessness of Ralph's termination is disgusting, unjust, and disheartening. From day one, Ralph has gone above and beyond his duties. Yes, rules and regulations must be followed, but Heatherwood is more than capable of providing coaching and counseling to ensure the best possible outcome for its tenants and staff.' Management company Heatherwood Communities says Body broke the rules. Body says he only did what was asked of him, like cleaning cat litter, taking care of pets and watering plants . The petition, on ipetitions.com, had received 72 of its goal of 250 signatures by Sunday evening. Now he waits, though Body could soon get a new job through his staffing company PBS Facility Services. Most tenants in Body's corner blame the building management and not the staffing company for the concierge's termination. the Post reports. But Heatherwood, in an email sent to tenants, says that's not the case. 'It was recently brought to our attention that Ralph did not follow PBS's policies and procedures and after being spoken to several times, it was their decision to reassign him to another building,' says the letter, which was obtained by the Post.

Summary: Ralph Body was once a beloved figure at the front desk of the building 27 on 27th in Queens . The concierge says he was fired last week and now believes it was because he was too willing to help affluent tenants--even after his shifts . Some tenants are gathering signatures to get 41-year-old Body reinstated as the building's ever-effervescent doorman .

The TV channel E4 will shut down for 12 hours on the day of the general election to encourage more youngsters to vote. Cult US sitcoms like The Big Bang Theory and How I Met Your Mother will be taken off air for 12 hours – with viewers tuning in on 7 May shown instead an advert telling people to go to the polls. The specially-produced advert will be played, featuring 'Darren' – the man fictionally in charge of keeping E4 on air, sitting in the channel's control room. Scroll down for video . A specially-produced advert will be played on E4 on May 7 featuring 'Darren' – the man fictionally in charge of keeping the programme on air . The radical move could have a significant impact on the election with the advert set to be seen by millions of potential voters. E4 is the most popular channel for younger viewers, reaching 8.7 million 16-34 year olds every month – ahead of BBC2 and Channel 5. Its regular schedule will be suspended from 7am, when polls open, to 7pm, three hours before polling closes, when the channel will return to normal with Hollyoaks. Dan Brooke, Channel 4's chief marketing officer said: 'Less than half of under-25s voted at the last election so we've engaged the most powerful weapon that we have at our disposal to try and boost that number - switching off their favourite TV channel for the day.' E4's sister station Channel 4 will also run a special advertising campaign encouraging youngsters to vote. Voters aged between 18-24 and 25-34 are by far the least likely to take part in elections, prompting fears that politicians have given up trying to appeal to their concerns . The adverts will ask viewers: 'How many times have you missed life-changing events because you wanted to watch your favourite show? 'May 7 is election day and Darren is going to turn E4 off so you might as well go and vote. You won't forget will you Darren?' But viewers will only be able to take advantage of the TV switch-off if they have already registered to vote – with the deadline having already passed. Meanwhile, Channel 4 will present an 'alternative' to the election night coverage on the BBC and ITV, with a programme co-anchored by Jeremy Paxman and comedian David Mitchell. Paxman, who left BBC Two's Newsnight last June, said: 'Elections matter. But that doesn't mean the coverage has to be dull. I hope there'll be room for both insight and laughter.' The election-day shut down on E4 will see programmes including 'How I Met Your Mother' (pictured) taken off air for 12 hours . Fans of the US sitcom The Big Bang Theory will also be hit by the E4 decision to switch off its coverage between 7am and 7pm . Mitchell added: 'Our aim is to keep people watching much later than they intended and we will be judged by the dip in the nation's productivity on Friday 8 May.' The show will also include special election-themed episodes of Gogglebox

Summary: Cult US shows like The Big Bang Theory will be axed for 12 hours on May 7 . Instead, E4 will show a special advert encouraging people to vote . The radical move could have a significant impact on the election . E4 is the most popular channel for 16-34 year olds, watched by 8.7 million .

Paul Smith, having bravely lost his two challenges to Arthur Abraham in Germany, now finds himself in pole position for a third successive joust against a reigning world super-middleweight champion. Only this time the elder of Liverpool's fine family of four fighting brothers will not be boxing for a title, even though it is against a far more formidable champion. Andre Ward, still ranked by many among the top five pound-for-pound boxers in the world despite 17 months out of the ring, sees Smith as the ideal warm-up opponent, possibly before a rematch with Carl Froch. Paul Smith (right) throws a punch towards Arthur Abraham during their title fight in Berlin in February . Andre Ward (left) poses with his many title belts after defeating Edwin Rodriguez in November 2013 . Kell Brook could have had his much-craved Battle of Britain... if Eddie Hearn had not been so 'disrespectful', claims Amir Khan's dad Shah. Read more here. Virgil Hunter, California-based trainer of both Ward and Amir Khan, says: 'Smith is who we want and I'm told it's a done deal. But it won't be for Andre's belt even though it will be over the 12-round championship distance.' The WBA have ordered their two super-middle world champions – Ward 'super,' Froch 'regular' – to meet in a unification fight. Froch declared willingness if Ward returns the compliment by travelling to the UK, having won their first meeting in the US. Ward (left) lands a left jab on Carl Froch before going on to win their title bout in New Jersey in 2011 . Froch (left) stands alongside James DeGale before a television appearance in Liverpool last July . Ward said he would make the away trip but only as far as London, not to Nottingham where Froch has long desired to box on his hometown City Ground. Hunter declares: 'Andre would have gladly taken Carl straight away.' But now it appears the WBA are granting the so-called Son of God licence to shake off the ring rust where he almost always fights, in his native city across the Bay from San Francisco. Froch, meanwhile, is turning his attention to his other remaining ambition before retirement – a first appearance on the Las Vegas Strip, against the namesake son of Mexican legend Julio Cesar Chavez. Step into Oakland's Oracle Arena, Paul Smith. Good luck to him, in every sense of the phrase. Julis Cesar Chavez Jr (centre) celebrates after winning the WBC World Middleweight title in June 2011 .

Summary: Andre Ward sees Paul Smith as the ideal warm-up opponent . It could possibly come before a Ward rematch with Carl Froch . Ward has not fought since beating Edwin Rodriguez in November 2013 . Froch is turning his attention a first appearance in Las Vegas .


Two years ago, Rafa Benitez was in charge of Chelsea and John Terry's glittering career at Stamford Bridge was in danger of fizzling out. In April 2013, the Spanish manager declared that Terry could no longer play two games a week and that controversial decision, twinned with a persistent knee injury, meant the former England international made just 14 appearances for his beloved in the 2012-13 campaign.

And he made 36 in 2004-05 and again the following season - his other two Premier League title triumphs. During his time as Blues boss, Rafa Benitez (left) believed Terry couldn't play two games in a week . Terry had to settle for a place on the bench under Benitez and made just 14 Premier League appearances . Speaking after the 0-0 draw with Arsenal on Sunday, manager Jose Mourinho said: 'I told John Terry in the dressing room that he made fantastic performances with me in six years but for me this was the best I have seen from him. 'It was the best JT has ever played. His defensive performance was absolutely amazing.' This season, Terry has played 2,970 minutes, scoring three goals along the way as Chelsea sit at the Premier League's summit, 10 points clear of second-placed Manchester City having already collected the Capital One Cup in March. The 34-year-old celebrates with the Capital One Cup after Chelsea's 2-0 victory against Tottenham in March .

A protective dad has devised a creative way to keep the boys away from his young daughter - by printing his muscly torso on a t-shirt and making her wear it. 'Stay Clear Boys,' a message on the shirt warns. 'This is my dad!' And while his daughter doesn't look too happy about the new attire, her father is pictured grinning beside her. The image was first shared on Reddit under the headline 'Dad security' at the weekend. A dad created this t-shirt to keep the boys away from his daughter - and she doesn't look happy about it .

By Wednesday, the image on his page had been liked by 370,000 Facebook users and had been shared more than 45,000 times. While some commenters both applauded the move - and even asked whether the girl was in need of a step-mother - others ridiculed it. 'Dads thought process: How can I tell more people I work out, and not look like a tool?' one wrote. Another added: 'How about a shirt that says "attention boys...this is my body and I do what I want with it...neither you nor my dad make any of the rules...and ps I may not even be into boys.'

A brother and sister were left severely disabled after maternity staff at the hospital where they were both born, two years apart, made the same mistakes. Paula McKay was told her daughter Natasha had suffered brain damage and would be left disabled after errors were made by medics at the former Sharoe Green Hospital in Preston. When she became pregnant with her second child, less than two years later, she was reassured the same mistakes would not be repeated. But the promise was an empty one. When Patrick was delivered at the same hospital, the same errors were made, leaving her son brain damaged and severely disabled like his older sister. Ms McKay, from Leyland, near Preston, has been awarded £13 million in compensation, a £7 million care package for her daughter five years after a £6 million sum for her son's lifelong care was agreed. Paula McKay, centre, has won a 20-year legal battle to secure £13 million compensation for her two children Natasha, 24, left and Patrick, 22, right. They were both left severely disabled after the same mistakes were repeated by staff at the same hospital, two years apart, during their births . Maternity staff at the hospital failed to monitor Ms McKay, and failed to recognise Natasha was in distress in the womb. She was delivered 10 weeks prematurely by C-section, but staff failed to ventilate her properly, which caused severe brain damage . Natasha, who is now 24, is confined to a wheelchair and will rely on 24-hour care from a team of nurses who help her dress and eat for the rest of her life. After she was starved of oxygen at birth, Natasha was diagnosed with severe cerebral palsy and epilepsy. Maternity staff at the hospital failed to monitor Ms McKay, and failed to recognise Natasha was in distress in the womb. She was delivered 10 weeks prematurely by C-section, but staff failed to ventilate her properly, which caused severe brain damage. Seventeen months later when she became pregnant with her son, Patrick, Ms McKay returned to the same hospital. Staff assured her, the same mistakes would not be repeated. However, medics once again failed to monitor her condition, and did not spot that Patrick's heart rate was very low. Ms McKay was, once again, rushed to theatre for an emergency C-section to deliver her son. As a result of the mistakes made, Patrick, now 22, was left brain-damaged and with cerebral palsy. Ms McKay, who has since divorced Natasha and Patrick's father and remarried, said what had happened to her family was a nightmare. 'Natasha and Patrick have been through so much in their lives and it has been heart-breaking to see them suffer at times due to the injuries they were left with.' She told the Telegraph: 'It has been a huge struggle. This feels like the end of a very long, dark tunnel. 'It’s obviously devastating for it to happen to one of your children, but for it to happen to two of them, you just can’t take it in.' She added:

Summary: Natasha, 24, and Patrick Jackson, 22, were both left brain damaged at birth . They're severely disabled, suffer cerebral palsy and Natasha has epilepsy .

'While his actions had the potential to cause harm, there is no evidence that they did so. 'In all the circumstances I agree with the panel's recommendation that Mr Cudjoe-Calvocoressi be allowed to apply for the order to be set aside on or after 29 July 2019.' The ban means that he is prohibited from teaching and cannot teach in any school, sixth form college, relevant youth accommodation or children's home in England.

Property prices are predicted to fall by up to 10 per cent in some states with economists tipping a housing surplus in 2017. In a new report, Goldman Sachs predicts population growth will slow to 1.25 per cent over the next three years due to low birth rates, high death rates and falling net migration. This is significantly lower than widely-used Australian Bureau of Statistics population predictions of between 1.7 and 1.8 per cent - which Goldman Sachs analysts Tim Toohey and Andrew Boak label as 'too optimistic'. This will create an oversupply and see property prices fall by between 5 and 10 per cent in markets where construction supply has been strong – particularly inner-city Melbourne and Perth – according to BIS Shrapnel managing director Robert Mellor. Scroll down for video . A new housing development at 88 Alfred Street in Milsons Point, on the lower north shore of Sydney, with panoramic views of the harbour . Sydney will be one of the only markets not to be hit by an oversupply of housing in the next three years, according to economists . Property prices are predicted to fall by up to 10 per cent in some states with economists tipping a housing surplus in 2017 . 'It is correct to talk about the markets going to go from chronic undersupply to the fact there will be excess supply developing in a number of markets,' Mr Mellor told Daily Mail Australia. 'One market we've been concerned about for quite a long time is inner city apartments in Melbourne, such as in Docklands, Southbank and the CBD. 'While there might be a shift in demand patterns with renters wanting to live closer in, it's not going to be sufficient. 'Supply will swamp the amount of demand and lead to excess supply, and you're going to find a substantial reduction in rents and the risk of falling values.' Mr Mellor said there is a likelihood Perth, Canberra and Adelaide will see declines. 'Perth is seeing a substantial turnaround in supply at the moment and a reduction in underlying demand,' he said. 'Even in markets like Adelaide construction has been relatively strong and as a result there could be some excess supply.

The former sister-in-law of a man who has been charged with the murder of his second wife and is being investigated over the mysterious death of his first wife has said that she feared she might have been next. Henthorn was charged with the murder of second wife, Toni Bertolet, 51, last November and police have reopened their investigation into the suspicious death of his first wife, Lynn Rishell, some 20 years earlier. In both cases Henthorn was named as the sole beneficiary in a string of lucrative life insurance policies totaling $500,000 on the death of his first wife and $4.5million on the death of his second. And Lynn Rishell's brother's wife, Grace Rishell, has opened up to say that the FBI told her about a secret $400,000 life insurance policy Henthorn had taken out on her, too. Scroll down for video . Grace Rishell was Herald Henthorn's first wife Lynn Rishell's sister-in-law. She said that the FBI told her about a secret $400,000 life insurance policy Henthorn had taken out on her . Henthorn (left), pictured with Grace (center) and Lynn (right) Rishell, was named as the sole beneficiary in a string of lucrative life insurance policies totaling $500,000 on the death of his first wife and $4.5million on the death of his second after they both died in what appeared to be freak accident . He had forged her signature and made himself the sole beneficiary on the policy, Rishell told CBS's 48 Hours. 'That was his doing. I did not authorize that policy,' she said. 'He profits, not my girls. I feel he came in and just preyed on my vulnerability.' Both of Henthron's wives died in 'freak' accidents to which Henthorn, 59, was the sole witness. Dr Toni Jill Bertolet plunged 140ft to her death shortly before her 12th wedding anniversary while hiking with Henthorn in a remote stretch of Rocky Mountain National Park. Lynn Rishell - his first wife - was crushed to death under the front of Henthorn's Jeep when, he told first responders, the jack gave way as she reached under the vehicle for a lug night while changing a flat tire in the dark. 'I think it's logical to conclude that he was planning on taking my life at some point,' Grace Rishell said. 'He's a dangerous man... He needs to be behind bars.' Grace Rishell was going through a divorce and ‘concerned for her financial stability,’ when she initially agreed to Henthorn taking out a policy that would pay $50,000 to Grace’s brother and each of her four daughters for a total of $250,000.

A hoard of silver coins worth £34million that was sunk by the Nazis on board a steamship has been salvaged by a British-led team at a record depth of 5,150m (17,000ft). The SS City of Cairo was travelling from Bombay to England in 1942 when it was torpedoed by a U-boat 480 miles south of St Helena, taking 100 tons of rupees with it to the bottom of the ocean. It was long assumed that the vessel's cargo, belonging to the UK Treasury, would be lost forever such was the complexity of the task facing salvage experts. Treasure trove: Some of the 100 tons of rupees found buried in the ocean floor at a record depth of 17,000ft after the cargo ship they were being transported on was sunk by a Nazi submarine during World War Two . Record find: Some coins are raised to the surface during a pioneering recovery project by a British-led team . Hidden: The City of Cairo was finally discovered (above) 'broken in two and buried deep in the seafloor silt' Underwater company Deep Ocean Search used powerful sonar to locate the vessel on the sea floor . That was until a team led by British expert John Kingsford used pioneering techniques to track down the ship with powerful sonar and robotics. Underwater company Deep Ocean Search (DOS), which included 20 French oceanographers, was then contracted by the UK Ministry of Transport to recover the coins from a record depth of 17,000ft - some 4,500ft deeper than the Titanic. A spokesman for DOS said: 'This was to be a difficult search as the water depth would exceed 5,000m, the weather, swell and currents were known to be challenging and the presumed site was some 1,000 miles from the nearest land in the foothills of the mid-Atlantic ridge.' When the ship was finally discovered, it was 'broken in two and buried deep in the seafloor silt', adding that 'parts of the ship had metres of mud heaped upon it.'

Keeping it under wraps: The recovery took place in 2013, but has only now been made public . The SS City of Cairo was travelling from Bombay to England, via Cape Town and Recife, Brazil, when it was attacked by a Nazi U-Boat on November 6, 1942. The U-68 hit the vessel with one torpedo, but waited a further 20 minutes before firing the second. That crucial delay gave 296 of the ship's 302 passengers and crew time to escape in lifeboats. Famously, the German captain, Karl-Friedrich Merten, approached the lifeboats and told the survivors: 'Goodnight, sorry for sinking you.' The victims were eventually

In the end it took a Mexican to end this utterly absorbing stand-off, the irrepressible, if rather unimpressive, Javier Hernandez scoring the goal that ended almost 180 minutes of deadlock between these fierce city rivals. Only here on loan from Manchester United for a season, it was a goal that means Hernandez will be adored at the Santiago Bernabeu long after he has gone. But it was also a reward for ambition over the more conservative approach of Diego Simeone and his well-drilled side; for the team that enjoyed twice as much of the ball and the better of the chances that were created in this tense, niggly Champions League quarter-final tie.

The probe into the suicide of a 12-year-old girl was more of a 'publicity stunt' than an investigation, according to a new lawsuit. Rebecca Sedwick leaped to her death from the roof of an abandoned concrete plant in Lakeland, Florida in September 2013. The following month, the Polk County Sheriff's Office said she likely killed herself following 'malicious harassment' from two schoolmates, Katelyn Roman, then 12, and Guadalupe Shaw, 13. Both girls, who were students at Crystal Lake Middle School, were arrested on charges of aggravated stalking and the sheriff's office distributed their names and mug shots. Suicide: Rebecca Sedwick, pictured with her mother, took her life in 2013 and two girls were arrested for bullying her but later released. One of the girls has now filed a lawsuit against the sheriff's department . Authorities claimed they bullied Rebecca online and sent her messages such as 'go kill yourself'. But the charges were dropped when police were unable to find any evidence of the messages. On Wednesday, lawyers representing the family of the youngest girl filed a lawsuit naming Sheriff Grady Judd and Deputy Jonathan McKinney, the Orlando Sentinel reported. It accuses them of using Rebecca's death as an 'opportunity for media attention' and says that they maliciously deemed the girl 'the poster child example of a cyber-bully'. She was arrested without any factual basis, according to the lawsuit. It also accuses the sheriff's office of falsely telling the media that the girl had admitted to bullying Rebecca, even though this was false. Arrested: Katelyn Roman, 12, and Guadalupe Shaw, 13, were arrested a month after the suicide for allegedly bullying the girl - but the charges were dropped when police filed to find evidence of harassment . Defiant: After the charges was dropped, Katelyn went on the Today show with her parents and attorney and denied she had ever bullied the 12-year-old girl. Her family has now filed a lawsuit in Polk County . 'Although the charges were unsubstantiated and ultimately dropped, the incident left [jer] devastated and irreparably damaged,' the lawsuit says. Named: Sheriff Grady Judd, pictured, is accused of using Rebecca's death for 'media attention' Last year, it was reported that Katelyn had the third highest state testing score in Polk County but feared that she would no longer be able to continue her education after being suspended. The family is seeking at least $15,000 in damages. A representative for the sheriff's office said the claims 'have no merit'. Following Rebecca's death, Judd claimed that Guadalupe had posted online: 'Yes [I know] I bullied REBECCA and she killed her self but IDGAF [I don't give a f***].' Judd said the message led to her arrest, explaining: 'We decided that we can't leave her out there. Who else is she going to torment, who else is she going to harass?' But Guadalupe claimed her account had been hacked and the charges were ultimately dropped. The rift between the girls allegedly came after Guadalupe started dating Rebecca's ex-boyfriend. At the time, the teen boy told DailyMail.com that the girls fell out

Jamie Carragher does not feel Diego Simeone plays the type of football which would attract Arsenal, Manchester United or City. Sportsmail's columnist insists the style of play Atletico Madrid showed against their neighbours Real at the Bernabeu would not impress the three Barclays Premier League giants. 'I love watching him on the sidelines. I love watching his team play, their work rate and their effort, they're a team of men,' Carragher told Sky Sports.

Carragher does not feel Simeone plays football which would attract Arsenal, Manchester United or City . 'But there's no way a top team such as Arsenal, Manchester United or Manchester City would want to watch that and think that is the type of football we want to play. 'The job he had done is unbelievable, I'm not knocking that or his record one bit because I admire him so much. 'But I don't think bigger clubs will look at that and think that's how I want our club to play. I admire it and people at home may say it was a boring game. 'But they're playing Real Madrid. How do you stop them? You stop [Cristiano] Ronaldo. Play deep, leave no space for counter attacks and don't play pretty football because you can lose it and be counter attacked. 'How he sets up against Real Madrid is perfect that is shown in their records. But giants of European football and teams in the Premier League will not want to play like that.'

Frankie Dettori will be left to focus on the British Flat season this summer after boss Sheik Joaan Al Thani signed up Gregory Benoist to ride the horses which race under his Al Shaqab banner in France. The only exception will be Sheik Joaan’s dual Arc winner Treve, who will continue to be partnered by veteran Thierry Jarnet. Benoist is the only jockey to have ridden Elie Lellouche-trained Ectot, who was unplaced for Al Shaqab in last year’s Arc having gone into the race one of the leading fancies having won the Prix Niel. Frankie Dettori is to concentrate on the British flat season and not being picked to ride in France . The recruitment of Benoist could be seen as a snub for Dettori, who was replaced by Jarnet on Treve in the build-up to her Arc success. But Herbert insisted it was no longer logistically feasible to have one jockey covering both countries because Sheik Joaan’s operation has expanded so much. Herbert said: ‘Last season it was feasible to keep travelling back and forth across the Channel but we have more horses this year – 80 in France and almost 100 in Britain. ‘It makes more sense to have a jockey based over there. Gregory Benoist is the rider signed up to race the Al Shaqab banner in France this summer . ‘Frankie is happy with it and he will still ride British horses which we send to run in France. ‘The contract has literally been signed today. We have a very good relationship with Gregory. Thierry Jarnet will still ride Treve- there is no point breaking up a partnership that works.’ Dettori finished third on Al Shaqab’s Moheet in yesterday’s Novae Bloodstock Craven Stakes at Newmarket. The Richard Hannon-trained colt, which had won its only previous race at Salisbury last year, showed signs of inexperience in a tactical affair won by his Richard Hughes-ridden, front-running stablemate Kool Kompany. Hannon, who runs both Ivawood and Estidhkaar in tomorrow’s Greenham Stakes at Newbury, said both his Craven colts could run in the Guineas but, interestingly, Hughes hinted that either the German or French versions, both run around a bend as opposed to a straight course, might suit length and a quarter winner Kool Kompany best. Sheikh Joaan Al Thani (centre) chose not to go with Dettori and insists that he's happy with his choice . Most significant Guineas action possibly took place before racing started on the Rowley Mile when Charlie Hills-trained Acomb Stakes winner Connection put in a decent gallop under William Buick, who Hills hopes will ride his colt in the Classic back here on May 2. Retiring champion jump jockey AP McCoy was unplaced on his final ride at Cheltenham when Milan Bound finished seventh in the handicap hurdle won by Aqalim. McCoy rides at Ayr for the next two days, including the mount on Paul Nicholls-trained Benvolio in Friday's Scottish National. It is then likely he will not ride again until bowing out from the sport at Sandown’s end-of-season meeting on Saturday. AP McCoy (right) was unplaced

Summary: Frankie Dettori to focus on the British flat racing season this summer . Gregory Benoist chosen to ride in France by Sheik Joaan Al Thani . AP McCoy will ride his last Scottish Grand National on Benovillo on Friday .


Boris Johnson admitted last night he hopes to be considered to lead the Conservative Party after David Cameron. The London Mayor, pressed on his leadership ambitions by Sky News anchor Kay Burley, insisted the position would not become vacant for five years. But in his most candid remarks to date, he finally conceded: 'It would be a wonderful thing to be thought to be in a position to be considered for such an honour.' Scroll down for video . Ambitious: Boris Johnson admitted last night he hopes to be considered to lead the Conservative Party after David Cameron. Above, the London Mayor, left, joined the Prime Minister at a London nursery yesterday . However he insisted he thinks it is 'highly unlikely'. Mr Johnson, running to become MP in Uxbridge and South Ruislip, has long been tipped as a future leader of the party, most recently by Mr Cameron. He said last month he would serve a 'full second term' until 2020, but not a third and named as potential successors Mr Johnson, Home Secretary Theresa May and Chancellor George Osborne. Yesterday, Mr Johnson said: 'It is at least five years away which is an aeon in British politics, by which time whatever my personal ambitions may be there will be thrusting young men and women who will be overtaking me and who knows, it will all be different.' Eye on the prize: Mr Johnson, running to become MP in Uxbridge and South Ruislip, has long been tipped as a future leader of the party, most recently by Mr Cameron. Above, the politicians at the nursery yesterday . Potential successors: Mr Cameron named Home Secretary Theresa May and Chancellor George Osborne . Mr Cameron has admitted that what he called his own 'calm smoothness' could give people the wrong impression about how urgently he wants to win the General Election. He told The Spectator he had 'no end' of passion but was a Conservative, a tribe of people who 'don't always wear their beliefs on their sleeve'. Asked why many people believe he must do more to demonstrate that he really wants to win, he said: 'I don't know. There is something about me – I always manage to portray a calm smoothness or something.'

Summary: Boris Johnson said he hopes to be considered for Tory leadership after PM . But London Mayor insisted position would not become vacant for 5 years . David Cameron named Mr Johnson as one of three potential successors .


They announced they were 'consciously uncoupling' in March 2014. And over a year later Gwyneth Paltrow, 42, and Chris Martin, 38, have finalized their divorce, according to a report from TMZ. The documents are reportedly signed and will be filed on Monday. Scroll down for video... Done: Gwyneth Paltrow, 42, and Chris Martin, 38, pictured together in Mexico earlier this month, are said to have finalized their divorce . Sources tell the site the divorce was amicable. They have been using their business managers to work out a settlement agreement involving both property and custody. A judge should be signing off the divorce shortly, it was added. Leaving it to the pros: They have been using their business managers to work out a settlement agreement involving both property and custody . The settlement is confidential settlement but insiders claim there were no big problems with money or custody of their two children 10-year-old Apple and Moses aged nine. The Iron Man actress and Coldplay frontman married in December 2003. The documents will cite irreconcilable differences. Martin has reportedly been dating Silver Linings Playbook actress Jennifer Lawrence while Paltrow has been seeing Glee executive Brad Falchuk, 44. They've moved on: Martin is dating Jennifer Lawrence (left) while Paltrow is with Brad Falchuk (right) In April 2014 Martin told BBC Radio 1's Zane Lowe that he had to work on himself. 'I wouldn't use the word breakdown,' Martin said about the end of his marriage. 'This was more a realization about trying to grow up basically… if you can't open yourself up, you can't appreciate the wonder inside. 'So you can be with someone very wonderful, but because of your own issues you cannot let that be celebrated in the right way.' Good parents: The two have been on good terms as they share custody of their two children; here they are pictured in January 2014 . Their split was announced on her website Goop. 'It is with hearts full of sadness that we have decided to separate,' she wrote. Martin also told Lowe: 'What changed for me was, I don't want to go through life being scared of it, being scared of love, being scared of rejection, being scared of failure… About two years ago I was a mess really because I can't enjoy the thing that we are good at and I can't enjoy the great things around me because I'm burdened by this - I've got to not blame anyone else and make some changes.' A power couple once upon a time: The GOOP lady and the Coldplay frontman in January 2014 .

Over the years I’ve been lucky enough to play with a lot of accomplished women golfers, including two former world No 1's in Lorena Ochoa and Laura Davies. But none of these encounters prepared me for playing 18 holes with Charley Hull, the best teenage golfer in Britain. Suffice to say: I knew she was good but I didn’t appreciate she was so damn good. The venue was Turnberry and a media day for the Ricoh Women’s British Open in July. The sun was shining, Ailsa Craig was shimmering in the distance and Hull put on a shot-making clinic. Charley Hull can make it to the very top of the women's game if she carries on her progression . Teenager Hull possesses the same ‘wow’ factor as world No 1 Rory McIlroy (below) One of the nice things for me about playing golf with the women pros is we usually hit the ball about the same length. Not on this day. Hull hit drives that pitched past mine. She positively exudes the ‘wow’ factor Rory McIlroy had at the same age. Like Rory, she’s also easy company. Normally the way these things work is for the journalist to kick start conversations but Hull asked more questions than I did. She wanted to know everything about the course, from the historic role of the celebrated lighthouse to the war memorial that offers sober reflection to golfers on the back nine. The 19-year-old was keen to know about the revamp planned by the Trump family, who recently purchased Turnberry, under the guidance of course architect Martin Ebert. Again, like Rory, there’s the requisite amount of steel. ‘I’d hit a five iron off this tee to stay short of the bunkers,’ advised her caddy Gary Wildman, on the opening hole. ‘No, I want to hit a driver,’ replied Hull. She hit a driver. Indeed, she hit a driver off every tee, which is the way she likes to do things in practice. ‘I just find taking on the holes makes me concentrate,’ she explained. Again, like Rory, the driver also happens to be the best club in her bag. The 19-year-old has the same mentality and 'wow factor' as world No 1 Rory McIlroy . It puts her in the vanguard of the next revolution set to sweep the women’s game. After the emergence of the Koreans and the revival of the Americans, get set for the power hitters to leave their mark in the same way their male counterparts hold sway in the men’s version. Hull is part of a group that includes Thai rookie Ariya Jutanugarn and American Lexi Thompson. Hull has added 25 yards to her drive since hooking up with swing coach Matt Belsham earlier this year. Again, like McIlroy — there could be a theme here — her swing is so good she uses blade irons (she might be the only woman to do so), which are the preserve of the technically sound. American Lexi Thompson is another highly-touted golfer in women's golf and will challenge Hull . What’s next

Summary: British golfer Charley Hull has all the attributes to be one of the best . The 19-year-old has the same 'wow factor' as Rory McIlroy at the same age . Hull is part of an exciting group including Thailand's Ariya Jutanugarn and American Lexi Thompson .


These are the shocking images of a pet owner's squalor living conditions in Adelaide, where he raised his three cats. In what has been described as a 'confronting case of animal cruelty', photos were released by RSPCA South Australia which detailed how the cats at the property were in poor physical condition when they were seized by animal welfare. The resident pleaded guilty to a charge of failing to provide appropriate and adequate living conditions for his cats. These are the shocking images of a pet owner's squalor living conditions in Adelaide, where he raised his three cats . In what has been described as a 'confronting case of animal cruelty', these photos were released by RSPCA South Australia on Tuesday . The RSPCA seized the owner's cats in September and further requested to have them all surrendered in their care, The Advertiser reports. However the owner, who's identity has not been revealed, was granted to have two of his cats returned under the RSPCA's supervision. The animal welfare group will be caring and rehoming the third cat. The case was finalised in the Christies Beach Magistrates Court, southern Adelaide, on Tuesday. The owner was further ordered to pay $500 in compensation. RSPCA South Australia detailed how the cats at the property were in poor physical condition when they were seized in September . The pet owner pleaded guilty to a charge of failing to provide appropriate and adequate living conditions for his cats . The cats suffered from high-temperatures, flea-allergy dermatitis and significant respiratory issues when they were found at the property, according to the RSPCA. But this isn't an isolated case as the chief inspector of RSPCA South Australia, Andrea Lewis, told The Advertiser that in the past year they have received more than 1000 similar reports. 'Sadly, RSPCA inspectors and rescue officers are faced with conditions similar to those in this case on a regular basis,' Ms Lewis said. 'They work incredibly hard to remove animals from these conditions, and to provide them with the care they deserve.' Ms Lewis urged anyone with information about animal cruelty to call 1300 477 722 or report it online.

The pet owner has been fined $500 but his identity is yet to be revealed . He pleaded guilty to a charge of failing to provide appropriate and adequate living conditions for the cats at the property .

On Sunday night, at the Stade Velodrome, it’s the Dockers against the Dauphins. The Stevedores against the Stéphanes. Marseille vs Paris Saint-Germain — the hard-nosed, port-city, blue-collar roustabouts against the rich, privileged, capital-city-slickers. Or at least, that’s the way many want it portrayed. The way many in Marseille have always viewed it — and always will. The home side are Ligue 1 top scorers, two points behind the visitors who are leaders and have won seven of France’s last eight Classique matches. Paris Saint-Germain forward Zlatan Ibrahimovic controls the ball during their training session . PSG defender David Luiz, formerly of Chelsea, pictured ahead of their clash with French rivals Marseille . Lucas Moura runs during training as PSG prepare to meet Merseille on Sunday night in Ligue 1 . The fixture between blue-collar Marseille and money-bags PSG guarantees ferocity on Sunday night . Even if the title were not so finely balanced, this fixture guarantees ferocity. Culturally, socially and historically, there is deep enmity. But it is also a contest which pitches Marseille’s ultra-eccentric, ‘is he a fraud/is he a genius?’ coach, Marcelo Bielsa, right where he wants to be. Bear with me, we’ll return to that thought. So obsessive has Bielsa been about football for so long that it has devoured him. The man who took 7,000 videos of matches, goals, players, free-kicks, corners and penalties with him to Japan as coach of Argentina at the 2002 World Cup (his team were knocked out in the first round) has reached a stage whereby no matter how well he instructs, no matter how much sagacity there is in that strange old head of his bursting to get out, the damage inflicted by his relentless intensity makes the experience pyrrhic. However, in fairness, pyrrhic does mean victory — just at too great a cost. Ergo, there has thus far been some success for the man who appointed him — Marseille president Vincent Labrune. Initially, he reckoned: ‘Getting Marcelo, the perfect man for our project, was a huge stroke of luck. ‘I still sometimes ask myself how on earth we managed to get a coach like Bielsa. It’s a bit like signing Lionel Messi for 12 months…’ The sentiment lasted until the Argentine savaged Labrune for his work in the late summer transfer market. Publicly savaged him. With some justification, it must be said. Marseille manager Marcelo Bielsa pictured during a press conference on Friday ahead of the tie . Marseille have not had this many points in Ligue 1 at this stage since winning the title back in 2010 . The two men thrashed out a truce, which has held, in public at least, and that has yielded more of the ‘Ready Brek’ glow which can envelop the early stages of a Bielsa infestation. Marseille have not had this many points at this stage since winning the title back in 2010 — only their second major trophy since 1992. In terms of firepower and value for money, they have scored 21 and 26 goals more than the last two seasons respectively. At

Summary: Marseille manager Marcelo Bielsa has previously been nicknamed ‘El Loco’ Bielsa’s bible says: ‘Running is commitment, running is understanding, running is everything’ Marseille face PSG at home on Sunday night in Ligue 1 title clash .


Phil Jagielka swapped Everton's training ground for a kitchen earlier this week as he learned to cook a traditional Thai dish to celebrate the sacred festival of Songkran. The Toffees have been sponsored by Thai beverage Chang Beer for over 11 years and Jagielka, who scored the winner against Southampton on Saturday, was on hand to visit Chaophraya restaurant in Liverpool for a special cookery lesson.

A tiny oil painting that was kept in an attic for years and thought to be worth just £300 has now sold for more than £120,000 at auction. The oil painting - which measures nine inches by seven - of a Catholic saint was believed to be the work of a 'follower' of 16th century renaissance master El Greco. But the selling price suggests the untitled, undated and unsigned painting may actually have been done by the artist himself. Auctioneer Richard Bromell (pictured) gave the tiny painting an estimated value of about £300 to £400 but it ended up selling for more than £120,000 . It was acquired by the owner's late father in the 1970s for very little. He bought it because he believed it was a depiction of Saint Peter, who shares his name. And it was inherited by his son, who has not been named, who kept it in his loft for the past eight years before deciding to sell it following a clear-out. Auctioneer Richard Bromell, of Charterhouse Auctioneers of Sherborne, Dorset, gave the work an estimated value of between £300 and £400. But after advertising the sale, interest in the work took off. And feverish bidding, final hammer price was £98,000 and came to £120,932 with all the fees added on. Mr Bromell said: 'I rung the client after the sale and just told him it sold for ninety-eight. He asked 'what pounds?' And I told him it was £98,000. 'He said he needed to sit down. When he came down off the ceiling he was very, very pleased. I think if he had been offered £500 for it before the auction he would have snapped your hand off.' The oil painting (right) was believed to have been the work of a follower of 16th century renaissance master El Greco (left) but the selling price suggests it may have been done by the artist himself . Mr Bromell explained it was very difficult to judge the painting. He said: 'We described it as by a follower of El Greco because that is what it looked like and I still think that to be the case. 'It was a very interesting picture and very hard to value. 'If you asked three people the question 'how much is it worth?' you would get three different answers. One reputable gallery stopped bidding at £10,000 because that was how much they were prepared to pay for it. 'Obviously as least two people thought it was worth the money because the bidding just went up and up. 'We must have advertised it well because all the right people attended the sale. On the day of the sale I thought it might go for a few thousand pounds so we were obviously delighted with the outcome. 'People play their cards very close to their chest at these things and the person who bought it came in and was only interested in this item and nothing else.'

Summary: Auctioneer gave painting an estimated value of between £300 and £400 . It was thought to be the work of a follower of renaissance master El Greco .

Richie Benaud made commentary look easy. Believe me, it isn’t. But he put in the hard work and he rose to the top. There’s a lesson there for a few of the blokes who pick up a mic today. I had the great honour of doing a stint on Channel 9 in Australia during an Ashes Test a few years ago. They’d only recently introduced the concept of using three commentators in one go and, as usual, Richie was keeping his contributions to a minimum. I mean that in a good way — again, another lesson for today’s batch. Anyway, Richie had noticed something out in the middle and flicked what we call the lazy switch, so he could have a quiet word with the producer without the viewers hearing him. He wanted some footage of an incident he’d spotted a couple of overs earlier — Shane Warne had done something in the slips and it had passed the rest of us by. Richie Benaud was one of cricket's great personalities and will be remembered for his dry wit and knowledge . Benaud was the voice of cricket for generations, commentating in his native Australia and for the BBC . Benaud, pictured on his wedding day to wife Daphne, and during his later years in August 2005 . Benaud was a daring captain and became the first cricketer to score 2,000 runs and take 200 wickets in Tests . Finally, the producer located what he wanted. Warne, who hadn’t bowled yet — but who would go on to skittle England for the umpteenth time — had picked up his bowling marker, a small white disc, and thrown it to where he thought he’d be starting his run-up. Between overs, they broadcast Warne’s gesture. Richie said: ‘Shane Warne’s just put a marker down.’ That was his only contribution in the half-hour we were on together, but it beat anything else we had to offer. One line! It was classic Richie: he had the eagle eye to see what Warne was doing in the first place, the confidence to stay quiet while we rabbited on, and the perfect choice of words. As he might have put it himself: marvellous. I thought of Richie during the World Cup final last month. For some reason Star Sports, the tournament’s global broadcasters, used a team of rookies to commentate on the match. Some of them were among the game’s greatest modern-day players, but it was painfully apparent none of them had done much commentary. It was terrible TV. They just couldn’t pinpoint the moment — no emotion, no elation, no despair. How we missed Richie that evening. He never went overboard but he could have captured all those qualities in that understated way of his. Sometimes he could be very understated indeed. David Gower, Geoffrey Boycott and Benaud assembled a formidable line-up for the BBC in 1995 . A master with the microphone to his lips, Benaud also was well aware of the power of silence .
