It's the first time - and probably the only time - this information will be made public. The review will be published at 11:00 BST and details of anyone earning more than £150,000 a year will be included. The report will also look at TV and radio viewing figures, as well as online engagement. It may also examine the issue of the competition, such as Netflix. It looks back over the previous year's performance and publishes details about the corporation's finances and spending. This year's edition could prove more interesting than most. It's all down to the government's culture secretary, Karen Bradley. Speaking in the House of Commons last September, Mrs Bradley said publishing the salaries of stars earning more than £150,000 would bring the BBC "in line with the civil service" on transparency. The culture secretary said it would help ensure the BBC "produces value for money for the licence fee" and that more transparency could lead to savings that could be "invested in even more great programmes". But the BBC's director general, Tony Hall, has said: "Our position on talent pay has not changed and all major broadcasters have questioned the merit of the proposal. "The BBC operates in a competitive market and this will not make it easier for the BBC to retain the talent the public love." ITV's programmes chief, Kevin Lygo, also called the proposal a "mean-spirited, nosey way of looking at things" during last year's Edinburgh Television Festival. The corporation already reveals the salary details of on-air stars who earn more than £450,000 and executives who earn more than £150,000. Presenters such as Graham Norton, Gary Lineker, Claudia Winkleman, Chris Evans, Fiona Bruce and Andrew Marr could easily be on the list. The revelations are required under the BBC's new Royal Charter, and are expected to encompass more than 100 of its top stars. According to last year's annual report, 109 TV and radio presenters earned more than £150,000 in the financial year 2015-16. But they were not named at the time. Some have. Speaking at the China Exchange last month, Andrew Marr said of the plans to formally spell out pay: "It's uncomfortable for all of us. "I'm well paid but I'm much less overpaid, perhaps, than people working for rival organisations who won't go through this process," reported the Telegraph. But Strictly Come Dancing presenter Claudia Winkleman said ahead of Karen Bradley's announcement last year: "I'm all for it. I totally understand it. We're working for the public, so why shouldn't they know? "It's good to see some women on the list too. "We get paid an awful lot of money and it's a marketplace. It's bonkers." She added: "I love working for the BBC. I know that commercial stations pay a whole lot more - double, three times, four times. But I totally understand why people would want to know." By revealing talent pay, we might also find out if there is any gender disparity. We should also find out how the BBC's television and radio channels and stations have performed over the

Summary: The salaries of the BBC's biggest stars are expected to be revealed in the corporation's annual report when it is published later.


Swansea council is showcasing proposals for the civic centre and St David's shopping centre sites. Under the plans, a retail and leisure complex would be built on the St David's site with a walkway over the main road leading to the current civic centre site. That would have public spaces, tourist attractions and homes. It follows a similar presentation in London's financial district last week.

Summary: More than 140 specialist developers and agents will arrive in Swansea to see a vision of the city centre's future.


Kent finished second in Division Two last season and were not given a spot in the top flight after Durham were relegated because of financial issues. Gillespie, who joined Kent as cover for Allan Donald in March, led Yorkshire to promotion from Division Two in 2012. "For this whole squad, the world is their oyster," he told BBC Radio Kent. "Kent have shown that they can do it and they can challenge to play in the first division. "They play against first division sides in white-ball cricket all the time so the lads know they can do it, it's just a couple of things falling into place."

Summary: Kent interim assistant coach Jason Gillespie says they can challenge for promotion to Division One of the County Championship this season.


London Street in Norwich was pedestrianised on 17 July 1967. The pedestrianisation of Norwich city centre is often referenced by fans of the fictional DJ, played by comedian Steve Coogan. The Norwich Society said the city had "pioneered pedestrianisation in the UK". Alan Partridge posed the question "what do you think about the pedestrianisation of Norwich city centre?" during an intimate scene. In the episode from 1997, Partridge said: "I'll be honest, I'm dead against it. People forget that traders need access to Dixons. "They do say it will help people in wheelchairs." Norwich City Council approved plans to pedestrianise more parts of the city in 2015. Paul Burall, vice chairman of the Norwich Society, said: "Norwich pioneered pedestrianisation in the UK and continues to extend the benefits, with another two streets being pedestrianised in the last two years. "While a few local people agree with Alan Partridge and still want to be able to drive everywhere, the vast majority welcome the ability to walk around without the noise, pollution and potential danger from traffic, and the great majority of traders recognise the benefits as well." Norwich is far from being the only town or city whose profile has been raised by its television connections. During the pedestrianisation ceremony, the then Lord Mayor of Norwich CH Sutton tied - rather than cut - a ribbon across London Street to signify its closure to traffic. Although other shopping areas - such as those in new towns like Stevenage - were made pedestrian-only long before London Street, the Norwich road was the first to be closed to motorised traffic and given over to pedestrians.

Summary: A city whose traffic plans were made famous by Alan Partridge is marking 50 years since one of its roads became the first to be pedestrianised in England.


Diver Daley, 18, who won a bronze medal and swimmer Meilutyte, 15, who won a gold for Lithuania, were among a number of local athletes taking part. Both are pupils at Plymouth College, where the parade departed from before heading to the city's Guildhall. Crowds six deep greeted them, waving flags as the Olympians appeared. Daley said: "It's been crazy. The amount of people along the streets is amazing. "A massive thank you from all of us for showing your support." He also thanked Plymouth College. "They have been incredible adapting the timetable so we can train at the same time. "It's a lot of thanks to Plymouth College that I got to the Olympics. "It's been pretty crazy since the Games, but it's getting back to normal now with school and training and my two annoying brothers." Lithuanian swimmer Meilutyte said: "I have been here for almost two and a half years and it's been incredible. "Plymouth is almost like my second home and I'm really proud to be here." By Chris EllisBBC News Online, South West Thousands of people lined the streets of Plymouth to congratulate the city's Olympians and Paralympians. For most of the journey from Plymouth College to the Guildhall there was a stream of people, many with union flags and banners saying 'Well Done Tom' and 'I Love You Tom'. Drivers of buses and cars honked their horns and one woman in a parked car was leaning out of the sunroof and honking the horn with her foot. As we approached Royal Parade hundreds of people were lining the streets and the noise was deafening. Gallery: Olympics 2012 homecoming Other Olympic athletes taking part included divers Tonia Couch and Sarah Barrow, swimmers Antony James, Jamila Lunkuse and Jade Howard, and fencer Corinna Lawrence. Barrow tweeted: "How incredible was the Plymouth welcome home parade! Thank you to everyone who came :)" Couch said: "The parade makes you feel really special, especially in your home city." Wheelchair basketball player Judith Hamer and Paralympic table tennis player David Wetherill, from Torpoint in Cornwall, joined them. Wetherill said: "I'm not used to this much attention. This was so much better than London." Daley's diving coach Andy Banks and Meilutyte's swimming coach Jon Rudd also took part in the parade. London 2012 Games Makers from Plymouth, the volunteers who helped at Olympic venues, joined the parade in their uniforms and walked behind the bus as it travelled down Royal Parade. Stella Goodman, who was watching the parade with three generations of her family, said: "We are proud, proud to be Plymothians and see them today." Deputy council leader Peter Smith said: "It's fantastic that so many of the city's sportsmen and women were selected to take part in the Games and that two of them have won medals. "They are a true inspiration - not just to youngsters here in Plymouth but all over the country - some of whom will one day follow in their footsteps."

Summary: Crowds of cheering fans welcomed London Olympics 2012 medal winners Tom Daley and Ruta Meilutyte as they toured Plymouth in an open-top bus.


Cyber criminals took Stuart Kettell's wedding and corporate videos hostage, along with his own family albums. He did not answer the demand for $1,000 - about Â£700 - and paid the price with irreplaceable memories lost forever. Mr Kettell's work was backed up on a separate drive so although the attack cost him precious time, his clients' videos were safe. But photographs of his late parents and his children were wiped out. The managing director of Kettell Video Production in Coventry saw the files on his computer "ghosting" - being copied elsewhere. He said: "They were going to white squares with an encryption code at the bottom and and every minute another file was ghosting out. "I clicked on this help file and at the top it said I had to pay in Bitcoin, and there was no way I could retrieve my files unless I paid this ransom. "It really shocked me, I couldn't believe it. "Pictures of my mother and father who have passed away and all the children, all the family portraits [are gone]. "All the precious memories it started worming its way through." He said he felt "really angry" and "had no idea" why he did not go to the police. "It's a ransom, you know. If you get someone come to your front door and kidnap your child and demand a ransom - that's a massive police inquiry and this is the same thing - they're taking away precious memories and hard work and I didn't think of going to the police - when I look back I think that's crazy." An experiment by BBC Inside Out showed how people's personal details could be stolen when they logged on through a public wi-fi connection. It showed a so-called man-in-the middle attack - using a device that can be bought online for about Â£100. Volunteers were visibly shocked to see their personal details being hacked in minutes. It took technology expert Madeline Cheah just 10 minutes to log the personal details of a roomful of people. Their usernames and passwords were then revealed to them by presenter Qasa Alom. Tips on how to keep web hackers at bay Police are treating cyber crime as seriously as terrorism, says Det Insp Rob Harris who heads up the new cyber crime unit in the West Midlands. He said: "Criminals are morphing and actually changing the way they commit criminality and more and more now they are turning to online to scam people out of their money, so of course we are changing with it. "The government declared [cyber crime] a couple of years ago as a tier one issue for the UK. That puts it up there on the same sort of footing as terrorism." Det Insp Harris added: "This is a global problem. The police aren't going to be able to arrest their way out of this issue. "It's actually everybody in society playing that little part to make sure they do something to help themselves." Dr Siraj Shaikh, a lecturer at Coventry University, is teaching the next generation

Summary: A videographer has told of how online hackers held him to ransom.


The 55-year-old tweeted from the hospital in Tooting to thank the professionals who "saved his life". Moore won 64 England caps between 1987 and 1995, played for the British and Irish Lions, and trained as a solicitor while pursuing his rugby career. The former England hooker now works in the media.

Summary: Former England rugby international Brian Moore is recovering in intensive care at St George's hospital in London after suffering a heart attack.


The comments were made in a statement the day after the BBC reported workers at Scotland's largest container port are set to go on strike on Tuesday in a row over rotas and pay. The spokeswoman insisted changes to shift patterns were needed to reflect the needs of customers. But the Unite union has said the new rotas amount to a "de facto pay cut". A spokesman for the Port of Grangemouth said: "The strike action proposed by Unite the union is unjustified. "We are proposing alterations to shift patterns in response to the changing needs of our customers, whose vessels call at the port seven days a week. "Our staff and their union accepted the need for such flexibility, and that shift patterns may require to change in the future, when this element of their employment contracts was agreed in 2011. She added: "We have decided to close the port's quayside container operations from midnight on Monday 14th March. All other operations at the port will remain open. "We sincerely hope that our staff, and their union, will cancel this strike and work with us to implement the changes necessary to enable us to meet the changing demands of our customers." The union Unite has said all but two of 75 "operatives" based at the Port of Grangemouth voted for the action in a ballot. The workers include crane drivers and loaders. It is understood that about 20 engineers who are also based at the site are not involved in the action, which is due to start at 00:01 on Tuesday. Unite said the action had been called after port owner Forth Ports announced changes to shifts. Grangemouth handles more than 150,000 containers annually, with daily sailings to Rotterdam, Antwerp, Felixstowe and Hamburg.

Summary: A spokeswoman for Forth Ports has called the planned Grangemouth strike "unjustified".


The Inspiring Governance scheme will act as a bridge between people wanting to offer their services and schools trying to find governors. A report last month found that many schools were struggling to fill gaps in their governing bodies. Schools minister Lord Nash said it could "revolutionise" how schools and governors could be matched. The project is being run by the Education and Employers careers charity and the National Governors' Association and has been funded for four years by the Department for Education. It will allow schools to search for potential recruits, either by skills they can offer or where they live. It will also provide links to support and training for new governors. Emma Knights, the NGA's chief executive, said 300,000 people were already acting as school governors, but more were needed. "School governance is very challenging but also extremely rewarding. It's for people who want to use their skills to make a positive difference to the lives of children," said Ms Knights. Nick Chambers, founder of Education and Employers, said schools and colleges could find it hard to find governors and trustees, particularly in disadvantaged areas. He said that the Inspiring Governance service would allow people to "express an interest in volunteering via a simple online form. Governing bodies can then look at the profiles of volunteers who have signed up in their area and get in touch with them directly". The project has also been backed by Russell Hobby, leader of the National Association of Head Teachers, as a way for schools to find "highly skilled and highly motivated governors". The government earlier this year abandoned controversial changes to the role of governors. There had been proposals for academy trusts to operate without any parent governors - but this was scrapped by the incoming education secretary, Justine Greening. Education minister Lord Nash said it was important to strengthen governing bodies. "As the people who appoint head teachers and chief executives and hold them to account, governors and trustees should be the driving force behind school improvement, so it's essential that we do more to attract talented and committed volunteers." The Inspiring Governance website is www.inspiringgovernance.org

Summary: Schools in England are going to be helped to find governors by a free online service backed by ministers.


Second quarter operating profit rose nearly 5% to 3.49bn euros (Â£2.47bn). But it listed a raft of potential problems, including "fierce competition, interest rate and exchange rate volatility, and fluctuations in raw materials prices". The results come one day after news VW had overtaken Toyota to become the world's biggest vehicle maker. But VW noted that robust growth in the global economy lost momentum in the first half 2015 and it said it expected the same level of growth for this year as in 2014. VW cited risks to global financial markets resulting from "the strained debt situation of many countries". It expects the strongest growth to come from Asian emerging economies, with moderate rates of expansion from major industrialised nations. The company's shares are down more than 2% in Frankfurt.

Summary: The German carmaker Volkswagen reported a rise in its quarterly profit, but noted slowing demand in key markets.


A roof will be placed on the tank, which will hold more than 60,000 cubic metres of gas. The work is being done by the plant's owner Ineos to hold imported shale gas from the US, obtained through the controversial fracking process. The development of unconventional gas extraction has been halted by a Scottish government moratorium. Ineos announced plans last year to invest up to Â£640m in shale gas exploration in the UK and use it as a raw material for its chemicals plants. The company hopes they will eventually be able to use gas that has been fracked locally in future rather than relying on stocks from the US. The new storage tank is 56m (183ft) in diameter and 44m (144ft) high - 560 double decker buses could fit inside its 108,372 cubic metre interior. The 330 tonne roof of the tank was lifted into place using a cushion of air similar to a hovercraft. John McNally, chief executive of Ineos Olefins and Polymers UK, said it was a "landmark day for Grangemouth". He said: "We know that US ethane has transformed US manufacturing and now Scottish industry will benefit as well. "This will secure a cost-effective supply of ethane for the next 15 years, and give a sustainable base for Grangemouth for that time." Ineos has They have started a community consultation process to try to win support for fracking. The firm said it was unconcerned about the moratorium and a spokesman promised to drink "a lot of tea in a lot of village halls" to try to win the argument. However, Friends of the Earth Scotland director Dr Richard Dixon said: "We strongly suspect Ineos' plans for fracking in Scotland would result in blighted communities, with planning permissions sitting unused for years. "The last thing anyone wants is to have a site next to their home where fracking may happen at some unspecified time in the future. "Communities could have to wait until nearly 2030 to find out if they are going to be fracked or not. This threat of blight is another good reason for the Scottish government to decide that fracking has no place in Scotland."

Summary: Work to complete the biggest shale gas tank in Europe is continuing at the petrochemical plant in Grangemouth.


The cobbles were replaced with stone paving slabs to stop people with buggies and prams and those in wheelchairs having to use the road. But some villagers say the blue lias stone used "looks like concrete" and should be replaced. Somerset County Council said it was listening to concerns before making a further decision. It said it would be prepared to replace the blue lias with Brecon grey slabs - which are used elsewhere in Dunster - if acceptable, but added it "would not be cheap". The work, on West Street, was part of a £400,000 highways improvement scheme, which also included upgrades to traffic signals and resurfacing work. Councillor Harvey Siggs, who is responsible for highways, said the majority of the work "had been very successful". "However, the choice of paving slabs used in West Street has been the subject of some concern." he said. Dunster was part of the Luttrell family estate until 1951, when it was sold. After the sale, Somerset County Council's highways department took responsibility for the roads but not the pavements. It previously said it would only adopt the pavement if a smooth surface was laid. The cobbles had fallen into a state of disrepair and people had been falling and injuring themselves. The Dunster Working Group wanted to re-lay them, but was worried about being sued if anyone fell. The village attracts thousands of visitors a year because of its 1,000-year-old castle and features including the medieval cobbled streets. The Dunster Working group includes representatives from Somerset County Council, the local parish council, the National Trust and the Exmoor National Park Authority.

Summary: Re-laying a pavement in Dunster, Somerset, where cobble stones were removed, could cost £60,000.


Beavon smashed home just before the half-hour mark to inflict a second successive defeat on Swindon, following their loss at Barnsley last weekend. The striker punished hesitancy among the Swindon defence with a clinical volley, the Brewers' first ever goal at the County Ground. Wes Thomas dragged wide from inside the penalty area for the home side. Jon Obika and Louis Thompson also missed the target while Yaser Kasim had a free-kick pushed over by Jon McLaughlin as Burton held out for the win. Burton Albion boss Jimmy Floyd Hasselbaink told BBC Radio Derby: Media playback is not supported on this device "I'm very happy. I think when you're coming to Swindon, you know what they're about. They can keep the ball for fun and they can test your nerves and get overloads in certain areas, but we made it very uncomfortable for them. We didn't let them get into their stride, we didn't let them play their game and get into their rhythm. "For us, it was all about winning the ball back in their half and trying to penetrate in the last third and I think we did that really well. "We should have scored more goals and that's something we need to work at, but I must say I'm extremely happy with how the team has worked today. We were very solid and we were quite creative with the ball at times, but the belief needs to become greater because they can do a lot more than they think."

Summary: Stuart Beavon's first-half strike moved Burton to the top of League One with their first ever win at Swindon.


London, New York and San Francisco have all announced major drops in the number of reported stolen smartphones since the facilities were added. A kill switch allows an owner of a stolen phone to send a command that blocks it from being accessed or reset until an ID and passcode are entered. Microsoft has yet to add the feature. Apple was first to introduce the measure. It included Activation Lock as an option in its iOS 7 operating system in September 2013. The latest statistics for the two US cities are based on a two-year period running from the start of 2013 to the end of 2014: London presented its numbers slightly differently, comparing the 12 months leading up to October 2013 with the same period the following year. It reported a 40% drop in smartphone thefts and a 38% fall in robberies of smartphones involving violence or the threat of violence. The figures from England's capital also indicate that since Apple introduced its kill switch: The three cities created the Secure Our Smartphones (SOS) initiative in 2013 to pressure smartphone manufacturers and mobile networks to help tackle smartphone thefts, after experiencing spikes in related crime. "We have made real progress in tackling the smartphone theft epidemic that was affecting many major cities just two years ago," said London Mayor Boris Johnson following the latest announcement. San Francisco District Attorney George Gascon added: "Preventing their own customers from being the target of a violent crime is the coolest technology [the mobile industry] can bring to market." The authorities are still pressing for further change. Although Apple made its kill switch the default setting on new iPhones running iOS 8 - meaning users do not need to switch it on, but rather must switch it off if they do not want it - this is not the case for other devices. So, while Google announced in October that its Android Lollipop operating system would introduce an opt-in feature called Factory Reset Protection, it is not currently offered by all handsets running the system. Likewise, Samsung's proprietary Reactivation Lock facility, offered on some of its Galaxy S5 smartphones, must also be turned on manually. The SOS initiative, however, is calling for kill switches to be automatically activated on every mobile device. "A default solution is imperative because it ensures all device are worthless to thieves," a campaign leaders said. Microsoft has promised to incorporate a kill switch into its smartphone version of Windows 10, but has yet to announce when the OS will be released. Smartphone chip maker Qualcomm has also announced a hardware-based kill switch facility, to be called SafeSwitch, that it will offer to manufacturers that use its latest processors. The firm describes this as a "superior solution" to others' software-based efforts. But handset-makers have yet to say if they will make the facility available to consumers.

Summary: The addition of "kill switch" anti-theft tools to iPhones and Android handsets appears to be acting as a major deterrent to criminals.


Bowler Sachithra Senanayake twice warned Buttler for straying out of his crease at the non-striker's end before removing the bails to dismiss him. "I would stick by it," said Mathews after the six-wicket win. "What we did was completely within the rules." "When they took the bails off, Mathews should have gone up to Buttler and said: 'Next time you're off.' People do back up. I've not played with any other player that has stood there until the ball is let go. It's a shame because it was a very good series until that point." But England skipper Alastair Cook said: "I thought it was a pretty poor act." England coach Peter Moores added: "Angelo has made his decision. It's not for me to comment why he did it. I was disappointed in it. "That's all I can really say. He's made his choice and obviously he's happy with it." Buttler was walking down the pitch as off-spinner Senanayake ran in to bowl in readiness to run. But Sri Lanka, who clinched the series 3-2 with the win, felt Buttler was attempting to gain an unfair advantage, not only at Edgbaston but during his century at Lord's in the previous ODI. "He was taking starts, not only this game but in the last game as well," explained Mathews. "We gave him two warnings. I don't know what else you can do to stop him doing that, so we had to go for it." Law 42.11 from the International Cricket Council's playing regulations for international cricket states that "the bowler is permitted, before releasing the ball and provided he has not completed his usual delivery swing, to attempt to run out the non-striker". But not everyone agrees it is a fair way to dismiss a batsman, and there is a stigma attached to such an act. Before giving Buttler out, umpire Michael Gough checked with Mathews that he was happy with Senanayake's appeal. Mathews backed his bowler, but Cook said it was a mode of dismissal from which he would not have been comfortable to benefit. "You don't know until you're put in that position, but I hope I wouldn't," said Cook afterwards. "Yes, he had warned him, but it was not as if he was sprinting down the wicket. There's a way of doing things, in my opinion." Former England spinner Phil Tufnell, a pundit on BBC's Test Match Special during the game, said it was a "poor" move by Sri Lanka. "Senanayake's gone through his action," he said. "Buttler was out of his crease, but then everybody would be. There will be feeling in that England dressing room that they had some injustice done to them." Former England skipper Michael Vaughan was also critical of Sri Lanka. He wrote on Twitter: "Totally blame the captain... He is the man who makes the decisions and should have overturned the decision... No way to play the game." But former England captain Alec Stewart said Sri Lanka were within their rights to appeal. "With the laws of the game as they are, Sri Lanka

Summary: Sri Lanka captain Angelo Mathews has defended the controversial run-out of England's Jos Buttler during his side's one-day international win at Edgbaston.


Dwayne Bravo, Kieron Pollard, Sunil Narine and Marlon Samuels are others who could also be available. West Indies' policy has been to only select players if they feature in the same format in domestic cricket. And many have chosen not to play in West Indian one-day competitions. That is because they often clash with lucrative overseas leagues such as the Big Bash. The West Indies will travel to England next month, beginning a three-match Test series with a day-night match at Edgbaston on 17 August. The squad for that series will be missing a host of big names as it has already been selected. Following the Test series, the teams will meet in a Twenty20 match at Chester-le-Street on 16 September before the first of five one-day internationals at Old Trafford on 19 September. In a statement, Cricket West Indies (CWI) said the "amnesty" with the players' union was "part of a wider strategy to be more inclusive and to improve player relations". In 2014, a tour of India ended abruptly because of a dispute over pay, while the West Indies missed out on qualifying for the Champions Trophy earlier this year. "We recognise that it is highly unlikely that we will now automatically qualify for the 2019 World Cup," said CWI chief executive Johnny Grave. "So whilst the qualifying tournament has yet to be confirmed by ICC, we may only have eight ODIs against England and New Zealand in the next six months to prepare. "It is crucial that we can have our best-performing Windies players available for selection in these important games."

Summary: Chris Gayle is among the West Indies players who could now play in this year's one-day series in England after a "temporary amnesty" between their union and the team's cricket board.


The cardboard boxes also include a mattress and can be used for babies to sleep in as an alternative to a crib. The Scottish government hopes the boxes will help ensure every baby is given the best possible start in life. Baby boxes are already given out by some health authorities in other parts of the UK. But the Scotland-wide rollout, which follows successful pilot projects in Orkney and Clackmannanshire, is the first time they will be available to all expecting mothers in one part of the country. The Scottish government has given assurances that all of its baby boxes meet the highest UK safety standards for sleeping, with safe sleep guidance provided in a leaflet inside the box and safety guidelines also printed on the lid. It follows concerns raised earlier this month by cot death charity The Lullaby Trust, whose chief executive Francine Bates said she was unhappy with some boxes being marketed as products which will reduce infant mortality and SIDS (sudden infant death syndrome). Lynsay Allan, executive director of the Scottish Cot Death Trust, said: "I am encouraged by the fact that Scotland's baby box scheme is prompting parents to think about their sleeping practices. "While the proven safest place for a baby to sleep is in a cot, crib or Moses basket, I also recognise that the box can be used as a safe sleep space for newborn babies, particularly where families may have no alternative and where they might otherwise unsafely share their bed or sleep on a sofa or chair with their baby." Expectant mothers due to give birth on or after 15 August have been able to register to receive their baby box at midwife appointments since June. The boxes will be sent to the mother's home address or another preferred location from today. From January of next year, the baby boxes will be delivered at least four weeks before the baby's due date. Colleen Groves, a mum-to-be who will be receiving one, told BBC Scotland: "I really like the idea of it being a safe sleeping space. "I would probably use it more during the day, rather than at night-time. I would use it as a sort of living space for putting down for naps during the day. "I think it is really nice that every baby is being given the same start and being given the same things. "It's up to the parents whether they take the box or not because you do register for it. It's up to each individual to decide whether they want to make use of it or not." Early Years Minister Mark McDonald said the Scottish government would continue to monitor feedback as the baby boxes reach more families, and would work with parents and healthcare professionals to keep the contents under review. And he said the boxes, which have largely been based on a similar scheme in Finland, were just one of a range of measures the government was using to help babies and parents thrive in the crucial early months. Scotland's chief medical officer, Dr

Summary: Baby boxes containing essential items such as clothes, books and blankets are to be delivered to new mothers across Scotland for the first time.


And in recent years Barcelona, inspired by the brilliant Lionel Messi, managed to achieve untouchable status on the pitch at the same time as remaining true to that motto. If somebody thinks that there is damage to the name of Barcelona then there is damage to be repaired But things are changing at the Nou Camp. Not only has the team's form suffered since Pep Guardiola left at the end of 2012, there are now serious questions over the way this great club do business. When forward Neymar joined from the Brazilian team Santos last June, Barcelona said they paid a total of £48.6m. But one of their members, a pharmacist called Jordi Cases, asked the club whether this was really the final bill. When Barcelona refused to answer, he went to the Spanish courts who launched an investigation. From that point on the story really began to unravel. First the Spanish prosecutor said they would investigate the deal to see if the club had defrauded the treasury of unpaid tax. The club said they had nothing to hide but then in January, under intense public pressure, the club's president Sandro Rosell resigned. He said it was for personal reasons but Rosell had personally overseen the mission to land the 22-year-old, one of the hottest properties in world football. Shortly after Rosell's departure, his successor Josep Maria Bartomeu, called a news conference to reveal the true cost of signing Neymar was actually £71.5m. Between the initial fee paid in the summer, signing-on fee, wages during his five-year deal, agents fees and this latest tax payment, Neymar will have cost the club £106.8m In an unprecedented move, Bartomeu - a close ally and friend of Rosell who was vice president at the time of the signing - went further, explaining exactly where all the money had gone. There was a £33m compensation fee paid to Neymar's father to ensure he joined Barcelona. Santos got £14m. But there was also an £8m signing-on fee, a £6m fee for taking an option on future Santos players, £2m in agents fees (also paid to Neymar's father) and a further £2m to Neymar's charitable foundation in Brazil. The club also revealed that Neymar was being paid £9m a year in wages. The numbers are mind boggling. And I can't recall a major European club ever opening the books on a transfer in this way. It provides a fascinating insight into the sort of agreements and payments teams have to make to secure the top players - especially from South America where many stars are owned by companies and wealthy individuals rather than clubs. By unwrapping the deal in public, Barcelona hoped that the problem and the Spanish courts would go away. Media playback is not supported on this device If anything it only added to their determination to investigate the transfer and two weeks ago the judge Pablo Ruz announced the case would go ahead. That prompted Barcelona to pay £11m to the Spanish treasury as a "complimentary tax declaration". And yet the problem just won't go

Summary: They pride themselves on being "mes que un club" - more than a club.


Media playback is not supported on this device Anderson had West Indies captain Denesh Ramdin caught at slip for his 384th victim as the first Test was drawn. "I've tried to block it out as much as possible, but I'm thankful that I've now got there and people can stop talking about it," the 32-year-old Lancashire bowler told BBC Sport. "I love playing for England. I'll try to do it for as long as possible." Speaking to Sky Sports, he said: "Taking over from an English legend is a hugely proud moment for me." Anderson, who reached the milestone in his 100th Test, took five wickets on his debut against Zimbabwe at Lord's in 2003. "The difference is I now know my game inside out," he added. "That comes with experience and I've got more skills and more control. "When I first started out as a young 20-year-old I just tried to bowl as fast as I could and didn't really have any control at all." England captain Alastair Cook took the catch that brought up Anderson's landmark. He said: "It was a great moment when Jimmy took the 384th wicket - we'll remember it for a long time." Former all-rounder Botham, now a commentator, said on Sky Sports: "I couldn't be happier. I'm delighted for Jimmy. "I've watched him develop those skills. It's not easy to bowl the inswinger and away-swinger with very little detail change but it's great to watch those skills. I enjoy watching him bowl; it's a pleasure to commentate on. "It's been a burden for him and for me. I've got something for him in the UK - it's the largest bottle of wine that I've been able to find. It's about as big as Jimmy." Botham predicted Anderson could go on and take 450 Test wickets - but Anderson was reluctant to set himself a goal. "450 sounds a long way off," he told the BBC. "I'm not going to think of any target. I'm just going to concentrate on turning up for England and trying to win us games of cricket." West Indies - set a notional 438 to win - batted out the final day on a placid surface to reach 350-7 thanks to Jason Holder's superb unbeaten 103, his maiden first-class century. He added 105 for the seventh wicket with Ramdin, who made 57, and shared an unbroken stand of 56 with Kemar Roach for the eighth. "We got ourselves back in the game but we couldn't find anything in that pitch whatsoever," said Anderson. "We tried our hearts out." West Indies skipper Ramdin paid tribute to Holder and Roach. "Hopefully it is one of many hundreds to come," he said of Holder's innings. "England fought hard - they came at us all the time - but Kemar Roach held his nerve well at the end." Cook said England "couldn't have done any more" to force victory, as the sides prepare to travel to Grenada for the second Test of the three-match series. "We knew it was going to be hard work, and

Summary: James Anderson said he was relieved and proud to have overtaken Sir Ian Botham as England's top Test wicket-taker.


Welsh duo Alex Cuthbert and Adam Jones join the South African in a line-up captained by Ireland's Shane Jennings. He leads a side containing nine different nationalities with 466 international appearances between them. It includes his Leinster team-mates Zane Kirchner and Jimmy Gopperth, Toulon's leading try scorer David Smith and former All Black Joe Rokocoko. Head coach Robbie Deans will be in charge of the Barbarians, the famous invitation club celebrating its 125th anniversary this year. Leinster and Ireland flanker Jennings retires from the professional game this summer after a career in which he has won 13 caps for Ireland, Pro12 and European Cup titles with the province and an Aviva Premiership title with Leicester Tigers. "It's an honour to lead out such an illustrious team. It's a great highlight in my career and we'll be determined to do the Barbarians' jersey justice against Ireland," said Jennings. Lions tight-head Jones anchors a scrum containing a powerful second row combination in Uruguay's Rodrigo Capo Ortega and Georgia's Konstantin Mikautadze. Japan's Ryu Koliniasi Holani is a dynamic number eight from Deans's club side Panasonic Wild Knights. Ireland have named a 27-strong squad, dominated by Leinster and Ulster players, for the Limerick encounter. Barbarians: Zane Kirchner (Leinster & South Africa), Alex Cuthbert (Cardiff Blues & Wales), Joe Rokocoko (Bayonne & New Zealand), Wynand Olivier (Montpellier & South Africa), David Smith (Toulon), James Gopperth (Leinster), Ruan Pienaar (Ulster & South Africa), Roberto Tejerizo (Tucuman & Argentina), Deon Fourie (Lyon), Adam Jones(Cardiff Blues & Wales), Rodrigo Capo Ortega (Castres & Uruguay), Konstantin Mikautadze (Toulon & Georgia), Shane Jennings (Leinster & Ireland, capt), Gerhard Vosloo (Toulon), Ryu Koliniasi Holani (Panasonic Wild Knights & Japan). Replacements: David Ward (Harlequins), Saimone Taumoepeau (Castres & New Zealand), Matias Diaz (Pampas & Argentina), George Whitelock (Panasonic Wild Knights & New Zealand), George Smith (Lyon & Australia), Tomas Cubelli (Belgrano Ath & Argentina), Tusi Pisi (Suntory Sungoliath & Samoa), Gio Aplon (Grenoble & South Africa).

Summary: Ulster scrum-half Ruan Pienaar has been named in the Barbarians team to take on Ireland at Thomond Park on Thursday.


Joe Pugh, 18, and his girlfriend Leah Washington, aged 17, both of Barnsley, were riding on the Smiler on Tuesday. Two carriages crashed on the ride at the Staffordshire theme park, leaving some passengers trapped for four-and-a-half hours about 25ft (7.6m) up in the air. Mr Pugh and Miss Washington and another man and a woman suffered leg injuries. A man who operated the Smiler ride when it opened in 2013, who gave his name only as Mark, has expressed his frustration the accident happened. Meanwhile, Oaks Working Men's Club, in Barnsley, where Mr Pugh works said: "We at The Oaks WMC would like to extend our prayers and best wishes in the speedy recovery of our barman Joe Pugh and his girlfriend Leah Washington." Mr Pugh's friend Alice Holmes spoke of her shock to the BBC's Mark Ansell. She said: "I text saying 'Are you ok? Smiler has crashed' and I never got a reply. "I text him again and again and he still didn't reply. Then, this morning I saw a clip on the news and I knew it was him from his outfit because he dresses quite nice." The BBC's Declan Wilson spoke to friends of Miss Washington, who said she was the more badly injured. One friend said she had injuries to her legs, hips and hands. Alton Towers said on social media that the park would remain closed on Thursday, as an investigation into the cause of the accident continued. Nick Varney, chief executive of the park's owners Merlin Entertainments, said: "A full investigation is now under way and we will continue to work closely with the emergency services and the Health and Safety Executive to better understand the cause of this terrible accident." The accident happened at around 14:00 BST on Tuesday, leaving 16 people stuck in the air at an angle of about 45 degrees. The park said the carriage carrying the people was travelling at 20mph when it crashed. Four people were airlifted to major trauma centres across the West Midlands. People at the theme park reported hearing "a loud crash" when the collision happened. Mr Pugh, a textile design student at the University of Huddersfield, has been sent supportive messages on social media from friends. "Wishing Joe Pugh and his girlfriend a speedy recovery," Kay Eggleston wrote. Ross William Gibson wrote: "Can't believe when I wrote this I didn't know one of the four was my friend Joe Pugh and his girlfriend. Get well soon pal." Mark, who operated the Smiler ride in 2013, said: "I am frustrated that such a simple error has been made, knowing myself how the system should function and that it is one of the safest rides I've ever worked on. "One carriage should only be in a certain block section at a time. "When the empty carriage didn't make it to the next block section after a certain amount of time, the ride should have stopped any other carriages being sent and entering that block."

Summary: Two teenagers have been named as victims of the Alton Towers rollercoaster accident.


The decision was made after animal health investigators were unable to rule out the presence of H5N8 avian flu at a third farm in Wyre. They said a "pro-active culling" would take place of birds including pheasants, partridges and ducks. The Food Standards Agency said the disease was not a risk to food safety. Public Health England said the risk to public health from the virus was very low. The first outbreak was discovered last week at a farm in Wyre with 10,000 birds, followed by a second case involving a flock of about 1,000 birds. Defra said the third premises would be cleansed and disinfected, "further reducing the risk that disease can be spread to other birds". "Our investigations will continue and the restrictions already placed on the sites will remain in force until cleansing and disinfection is finished and the investigation is complete," a spokesperson said. In January, there have been a number of other outbreaks of the virus, including at farms in Lincolnshire, North Yorkshire and in Carmarthenshire.

Summary: About 63,000 birds are due to be culled at a Lancashire farm to prevent the spread of bird flu, which has already been found at two nearby premises.


The latest has seen the Bolton footballer labelled the "miracle man". The 23-year-old collapsed on the pitch during the FA Cup tie against Tottenham at 18:13 GMT on Saturday, but it was not until 19:31 that his heart started working again. He was - according to Bolton's club doctor - "in effect dead" during that 78 minutes. But how is this possible? The full details of what happened to him have yet to emerge. But the most likely explanation - and one suggested by those involved in his care - is that while his heart stopped working, it retained some form of life. The cardiac arrest he suffered meant his heart was not contracting and therefore pumping blood around his body. However, even when this happens, some electrical activity can still be taking place within the heart. If this was the case, one of several things could have been happening. The heart could have developed a severely abnormal rhythm, known as either ventricular fibrillation - where it shakes like a jelly - or ventricular tachycardia - where it is out of control. The third explanation is that it has developed pulse-less electrical activity whereby there is an organised rhythm but no heart contractions. In some cases, the state of the activity can interchange between the three. The important thing in such cases is to start CPR quickly. This artificially pumps the blood round the body, buying medics time to work out how to get the heart working properly. Fabrice Muamba may still be in intensive care, but nonetheless not everyone is as lucky as him. About 100,000 people a year in the UK die after having a sudden cardiac arrest. Many of those will have collapsed in places where help is not to hand. It is why in recent years a campaign has been under way to place more defibrillators in community settings. Hundreds have already been placed in train stations, shopping malls and, of course, football grounds. But there are still not enough, according to the Arrhythmia Alliance. Truddie Lobban, the charity's founder, says: "The problem is that it is still very patchy. There are more than there used to be, but I would like to see them as common as fire extinguishers. "We need them in schools, outside churches and on every high street. "You don't have to be an expert to use them. They are automated and explain to the user how they work. "They can make the difference between life and death." Every minute delay in starting CPR reduces the chances of survival by 10%. In this respect, the 23-year-old was lucky. Pitch-side at White Hart Lane were a team of fully-trained and equipped medics. What is more, a cardiologist was in the crowd and was soon by Muamba's side lending help. It meant he received almost immediate attention. But CPR alone is not enough. That only gives someone suffering a cardiac arrest a 5% chance of survival. While he lay stricken on the pitch, the footballer was given oxygen and three shocks using a defibrillator. The aim

Summary: The more details that emerge about Fabrice Muamba, the more amazing his story becomes.


Youngsters say Stubylee Park in Bacup, Lancashire, has fallen into a state of disrepair and is no longer safe. One graffiti message sprayed on a ramp reads: "Instead of painting over all the graffiti why don't you sort the floor out?" Councillor Andrew McNae said a meeting has been set up with the youths. Mr McNae, portfolio holder for regeneration at Rossendale Borough Council, said: "For quite a while now we have recognised that the state of the park is not what we have wanted it to be. "Over the last couple of months we have been trying to bring money into the skate park. I've just heard we've got a small amount. "But the easiest way to let people know anything that they feel we are not doing is just to give me or any other councillor a ring. "We are hear to listen to these things, and it's a lot simpler than painting on the walls."

Summary: A war of words has broken out at a skate park - after teenagers sprayed graffiti accusing council officials of failing to maintain the site.


Friend, 28, was withdrawn during the 1-0 defeat by Nottingham Forest on 23 January after landing awkwardly. Former Doncaster and Wolves full-back Friend has missed just one league game this season, scoring once. Boro are already without centre-back Ben Gibson with a hip injury, who can also play wide, while full-back James Husband is on loan at Huddersfield.

Summary: Middlesbrough defender George Friend will be out for approximately four weeks after fracturing a shoulder.


A fatal foetal abnormality diagnosis means doctors believe an unborn child has a terminal condition and will die in the womb or shortly after birth. The proposal to allow abortion in such cases was defeated by 59 votes to 40. The result followed a passionate debate at Stormont after some MLAs proposed the law change be introduced by way of an amendment to the Justice Bill. Unlike other parts of the UK, the 1967 Abortion Act does not extend to Northern Ireland. Currently, a termination is only permitted in Northern Ireland if a woman's life is at risk or if there is a risk of permanent and serious damage to her mental or physical health. Politicians have been lobbied to reform the law since 2013, when Northern Ireland woman Sarah Ewart spoke out about having to travel to Great Britain for an abortion after she was told she was carrying a baby that had no chance of survival. The Democratic Unionist Party (DUP) faced criticism from other parties during Wednesday's debate for asking the Health Minister Simon Hamilton to set up a working group to examine the issues raised by fatal foetal abnormality. It could take six months for the group to complete its work and the Ulster Unionist leader Mike Nesbitt claimed it was a DUP "device" to delay decision making on abortion reform until after May's assembly election. Justice Minister David Ford, who brought forward the proposed change to the legislation, told Radio Ulster's The Nolan Show it could now remain in limbo for some time. "It would appear that that is what some people want, that it was any excuse at all to avoid taking a decision last night so they can fudge the issue," he said. "We will wait and see what happens to the DUP's supposed working group for the next six months. Certainly, we'll get the DUP past the election, maybe that's why they're doing it." However, the DUP has argued that the issue required proper consideration by MLAs and ministers and that the Justice Bill was not intended for this purpose. The amendment to legalise abortion in cases of fatal foetal abnormality was proposed by Alliance MLA Stewart Dickson. He told MLAs: "If we are to continue to fail women in Northern Ireland in this area then we are abdicating our duties as representatives. "The traumatic journey to England for many young women is becoming a shame on Northern Ireland and to force women with a fatal foetal pregnancy to look elsewhere for help and support make this worse." The amendment relating to pregnancies which are the result of rape or incest was put forward by Anna Lo, also of the Alliance Party, and was defeated by by 64 votes to 30. Mr Nesbitt said that as a man he did not feel comfortable "discussing what a woman should do with her body" but he added that MLAs had a responsibility to legislate. He claimed the DUP's request for a commission was a delaying tactic designed to "kick the decision to the far side of

Summary: Northern Ireland Assembly members have voted against legalising abortion in cases of fatal foetal abnormality.


The Woodland Trust wants to buy the land at Llennyrch woodland. Natural Resources Wales (NRW) has given £50,000 but a further £750,000 is needed and a campaign will be launched on Tuesday at the National Eisteddfod in Meifod, Powys. The charity said the area has been called a "Celtic rainforest" and it wants to improve wildlife on the site. NRW chief executive Dr Emyr Roberts said: "This is a fantastic opportunity to bring the whole woodland area under conservation management." The total cost of the project is £1.5m and the rest of the cost will be met by money left to the Woodland Trust.

Summary: A conservation charity is trying to raise £800,000 to purchase 550 acres of land in Snowdonia National Park.


South Yorkshire Police officers were called to High Melton College at about 14:45 GMT on Tuesday where workmen had found what appeared to be a body. Dark and cold conditions prevented officers from accessing the body so the scene was guarded overnight. Detectives are working with Yorkshire Water, underwater search teams and crime scene officers to determine the circumstances surrounding the incident. More stories from Sheffield and South Yorkshire High Melton is a campus of Doncaster College.

Summary: A body has been found in a sewage tank at a Doncaster college.


It means drivers can pay to do a speed awareness course instead, if caught at up to 10% above the limit plus 9mph. At a meeting of the Association of Chief Police Officers in January, it was announced that 37 out of 44 forces had signed up to the new system. Critics say the rules are a money-making exercise and allow law breaking. Previously, only those travelling at up to 10% above the limit plus 6mph could be offered one of the courses. But the amendments were agreed by chief constables at a meeting of the Association of Chief Police Officers in January. For a 30mph zone, the upper limit for a speeding course would be 42mph. This would rise to 86mph for motorways and other major roads, although the official limit remains the same. Acpo said the figure at which a course could be offered was a decision for individual forces, and not all would make it available for higher speeds. Drivers can only attend one speed awareness course, costing between Â£60 and Â£100, in a three-year period. "There is evidence to show that if people are sent on educational courses, rather than being punished with a fine and penalty points on their driving licence, they are less likely to reoffend in the future," an Acpo spokeswoman said. "Clearly if someone is breaking the speed limit outside a school when the children are coming out at 3.15pm, it's a no brainer and they would be punished. But if it is 3am and there's no-one on the streets, there is a degree of discretion." But Joel Hickman, spokesman for road safety charity Brake, said the new proposals "sent out the wrong message" and were "simply a way of making money" - a charge denied by Road Safety Minister Mike Penning. "Many people drive for work and would rather pay Â£100 to go on a course than accumulate points and risk losing their licence, so it is quite clear which is the greater deterrent to speeding," said Mr Hickman. "It sends out a message that it's ok to speed, which it certainly is not. Speeding causes tragedy every day on British roads and results in a huge number of people being killed and seriously injured. It's also a factor in a quarter of all crashes. "If you hit a child at 30mph, it's the equivalent of that child falling out of a three storey building. Driving at 42mph would mean that child having no chance of survival." But Mr Penning insisted road safety is the government's "top priority". "We support the targeted use of educational courses where these are shown to have a positive effect," he said. "The police are responsible for the administration of these courses but we are clear that course fees should not be used to raise revenue." 'Get-out-of-jail-free card?' The Institute of Advanced Motorists said it supported "the widening of the bandwidths that allow drivers to choose a speed awareness course over a fine". "We don't feel it gives a 'get-out-of-jail-free card' - drivers can only attend one speed

Summary: Most police forces in England and Wales have adopted new speeding guidelines that allow motorists to do up to 86mph and avoid points on their licence.


Emergency services found then man when they were called to Elizabeth Street in Govan at about 00:20 on Tuesday. Paramedics attended but he was pronounced dead at the scene. Gavin Riley, 27, from Glasgow, made no plea or declaration when he appeared at the city's sheriff court charged with murder and attempting to defeat the ends of justice. The case was committed for further examination and he was remanded in custody ahead of a further expected appearance next week, the Crown Office confirmed. The dead man has yet to be identified.

Summary: A man has been charged with murder after the death of a man found injured in a Glasgow street.


The duo impressed against New Zealand last weekend as Boyce scored his first international goal and O'Neill has hinted that they will start again. "When we've asked Josh to come and play through the middle he's never let us down," said O'Neill. "Liam has had a great season. He's looking very, very sharp in training." Media playback is not supported on this device In contrast, Kyle Lafferty's limited outings at club level this season leave him "not in the best condition we'd like him to be", O'Neill admitted on Thursday. "But for whatever part of the game he (Lafferty) plays, I'm sure he'll make sure he does a good job for us." The Northern Irish are without Conor Washington, who is getting married this weekend, while Jamie Ward, who also scored in the qualifier win over Norway in March, is ruled out by injury. Centre-back Gareth McAuley, 37, looks set to play after missing the New Zealand game because of a thigh injury but Watford defender Craig Cathcart will be missing because of a knee problem. Veteran Aaron Hughes could replace Cathcart if O'Neill's selects a back three but the manager could instead opt to switch to a back four. Northern Ireland hammered Azerbaijan 4-0 in Belfast seven months ago when the home side's set-piece prowess caused the lightweight opposition countless problems. O'Neill's squad have doubtless been practising their free-kicks and corner-kicks at length this week, which included five days in southern Turkey to acclimatise for the expected high temperatures in Baku. Media playback is not supported on this device Northern Ireland lost 2-0 in the previous visit to Baku in 2013 but O'Neill's team are a much improved outfit four years on having achieved qualification for Euro 2016. Robert Prosinecki's home side will be able to call on experienced skipper Rashad Sadygov, who missed the Windsor Park contest because of injury. Brazilian-born striker Richard Almeida is also now part of the Azerbaijan squad while another newcomer Renat Dadashov previously played for Germany's Under-17 team. O'Neill's side are second in Group C, five points behind leaders Germany, but two ahead of the third-placed Czech Republic.

Summary: Northern Ireland boss Michael O'Neill looks set to retain Liam Boyce and Josh Magennis as his strikers in Saturday's World Cup qualifier in Azerbaijan.


The classic 1970s sitcom starred her father Richard Beckinsale as Lenny Godber, cellmate to Ronnie Barker's Norman Stanley Fletcher. Porridge will return for a special episode, again written by Dick Clement and Ian La Frenais. Set 40 years on, Kevin Bishop will play Fletcher's prison inmate grandson. Nicknamed "Fletch" Fletcher, Nigel is behind bars for a series of cyber crimes. Beckinsale said in an interview for Radio 5 live, Afternoon Edition: "I don't think that's such a terrible idea. I think that's quite nice really. "When it's beloved characters and a beloved project, it's quite nice to have an imaginary, 'what is their grandson doing?'" But Beckinsale, whose new film is Love & Friendship - a romantic comedy based on Jane Austen's novel Lady Susan - has no desire to make a cameo in her father's old show. "In Porridge? You've got to be joking. It's a boy's prison. I'm not that versatile. Tea lady?" Her father died from cardiac arrest at the age of 31 in 1979. He appeared in all three series of Porridge between 1974 and 1977 and finished making the film version a few weeks before his death. Beckinsale, who starred in 2012's reboot of Total Recall, which originally starred Arnold Schwarzenegger, does not now believe remakes are a good idea, she says. "I think it's a shame sometimes when they take something that is almost perfect or perfect and then remake it. That's a silly idea. "They should remake things that aren't very good and have another go at it." The new episode of Porridge will be broadcast this summer as part of a landmark sitcom season to celebrate the 60th anniversary of the start of Hancock's Half Hour on BBC TV. It will include contemporary follow-ups to Are You Being Served?, Keeping Up Appearances and Up Pompeii! while lost episodes of Steptoe and Son, Till Death Do Us Part and Hancock's Half Hour will be remade from their original scripts for BBC Four. The interview with Kate Beckinsale can be heard on Radio 5 live's Afternoon Edition on Tuesday 31 May at 1300. Love & Friendship is currently in UK cinemas.

Summary: Hollywood actress Kate Beckinsale, best known for the Underworld Series of films, has given her blessing to the BBC bringing back Porridge.


The archive is making available thousands of items too fragile to go on public display. There will also be pages on the conservation work carried out by the Jersey Heritage Trust as it tries to preserve the past. The trust looks after over 350,000 artefacts, works of art and information relating to the island's history. The website also includes Occupation Archive material which was listed on the UNESCO UK memory of the world register in early 2011. Linda Romeril, Head of Archives and Collections at Jersey Heritage, said the collections were "at the heart of what we do and it is our duty to protect and pass on these unique items to future generations". "These collections define the Island; they hold the evidence for its historical development and act as the community's memory," she said.

Summary: Historical documents and works of art held by the Jersey Archive have been published online for the first time.


BBC Turkish spoke to residents on the Syrian border to find out how the military escalation has affected their daily lives. The first two contributors come from Beylerbeyi and Lower Beylerbeyi villages - directly north of the Syrian city of Aleppo, just on the Turkish side of the border. The third contributor did not want his name or location to be given. Our village is 100m (330 feet) from the border. IS controls the Syrian side of the border. We see IS militants from time to time. They can come all the way to the border fence. The border has always been busy since the start of the Syrian war. But since the Turkish air strikes against IS, it has got busier. Of course, this worries us. Our kids used to take the livestock to the areas next to the border for grazing without any problems. Now they can't as they fear some stray bullet or an attack could come from the other side. We see military build-ups. We used to sleep on the roofs because of the heat. Now we can't as bullets may come. We don't get too close to the border unless we really have to. We live right on the border but we are worried and live in fear. We particularly fear that the Turkish army is going to move into Syria from here. If that happens, our lives will be in danger. IS would attack the border villages. If IS attacks us, the whole village would have to move from here. We sleep in fear. Warplanes fly over us. That makes us even more worried - especially about our kids. Drones are making reconnaissance flights. I would leave my village if I could but I don't have the means. We don't want war on our border. We want to live carefree! I live in a village close to the border. After the war, smuggling thrived. I used to smuggle people in and out of Syria until 10 days ago. I charged 50 Turkish lira per person (Â£12; $18) - of course, if it was an IS militant I charged double! I can't do any smuggling at present because of the military mobilising. After the clashes between the Turkish army and IS, security has been tightened along the border. I tried to smuggle someone twice but soldiers showed up right away. We can't do our job any more. Warplanes are flying over us. We hope things along the border normalise soon.

Summary: Turkey has dramatically stepped up its involvement in the conflicts across its south-eastern border, bombing both militants from the Islamic State (IS) group and Kurdish militants, and allowing the US to use a key airbase.


The Glasgow number 10 has played just 12 minutes of the championship, coming off the bench in the defeat by Wales. But in the absence of the injured Finn Russell, he has been preferred to Peter Horne, who impressed against France. "It's tough on him not being selected but it's an opportunity for me," said Weir, who wins his 23rd cap in Dublin. "The coaches have given me confidence this week. They have watched my Glasgow footage and are happy where I am and my development over the last month or so. "I feel confident in my game at the minute and just need to back it up come Saturday. "It is a huge honour getting back into the side. I have been here training, so I know the calls and structures, so it is not being thrown in to the deep end as I have been here throughout the championship." With Russell still going through concussion return-to-play protocols after receiving a head knock five minutes into the France game, Cotter had the option of continuing with Horne - who he called "probably a 12-10 rather than a 10-12" - after he stepped into the fray with aplomb. "I was just hugely proud of his performance," Weir said of his Glasgow team-mate. "A guy who has not run a rep pretty much the whole tournament at 10 steps up and shows how natural a ball player he is. "It was great for me to go on and see him run the attack. Being a playmaker at 12, he is always chatting and orchestrating play anyway." Having played second fiddle to Russell at club level as well as with the national team, being left out of the match-day 23 for the last two Tests against Italy and France has allowed Weir more game time with Glasgow. He duly delivered two Pro 12 man-of-the-match displays against Newport Gwent Dragons and Cardiff Blues. "I have been getting a run of games so I feel confident in my form," he added. "Moving onto the ball you have to make better decisions when you have a run of games going. I feel really excited about the opportunity." Weir will be tasked with directing an attack - featuring Glasgow team-mates Stuart Hogg, Tommy Seymour and Alex Dunbar - that has produced eight tries so far, only one less than Scotland's best Six Nations tally of nine in 2000. But he is under no illusions that the keys to a third straight victory, which would match Scotland's best-ever Six Nations tally and likely equal their joint-best finish of third, may lie elsewhere. "Our defence and set-piece will be huge again," he added. "That will be at the front of our minds. Ireland are playing with a lot of width in their attack so we have to be cautious of that and get our spacing right in defence and shut things down and not be too aggressive at times. "Once we get the ball we have to play at a tempo they can't live with."

Summary: Fly-half Duncan Weir says he is ready to repay the confidence of the Scotland coaches as he prepares for a first Six Nations start of the year in Ireland.


Heidi Allen suggested ministers were losing sight of the difficulties of working people in their "single-minded determination to achieve a surplus". Urging help for affected families, she said "true Conservatives had compassion running through their veins". The government is standing by the changes, saying these and other reforms will save taxpayers £15bn a year. From April, the threshold at which tax credits begin to be withdrawn will fall from £6,420 to £3,850, and people's credit entitlement over this amount will be reduced more steeply. Millions of people are due to learn how much money they will lose in letters received shortly before Christmas. The government says people's incomes will be protected by other measures, including the new National Living Wage, increased free childcare and a larger personal income tax allowance. But a growing number of Tory MPs say they are not satisfied with this and want "transitional" arrangements to be put in place to help those affected. In her maiden speech in the Commons during a Labour debate on tax credits, Ms Allen, the MP for South Cambridgeshire, said she supported the principle of reducing reliance on the state but feared the way the government was going about it was all wrong. Tax credits debate: Finding your way Ms Allen, who backed the changes when they were first voted on last month, said her party must not treat it as "a spreadsheet exercise" since many of those affected would not be able to cope and faced a stark choice between heating their homes and putting food on their tables. "It is right that people are encouraged to strive for self-reliance and find work that pays for their independence from the state but I worry that our single-minded determination to reach a budget surplus is betraying who were are," she said. "Today every Conservative member who knows who we really are has a duty to remind those who have forgotten. We are the party of the working person... who strives to provide for themselves and their family with pride." The government, she said, had a responsibility "to support the people through that change", adding: "I am not interested in the colour of the party that created a bloated welfare state. That is in the past but I do know one thing - it is not the fault of the recipients of tax credits. "To pull ourselves out of debt, we should not be forcing those working families into it." Labour urged Tory MPs to back its motion calling for a rethink, but was defeated by 317 votes to 295, with no Conservatives voting against the government. However, several MPs used the occasion to increase the pressure on the government to rethink how they are introduced. Conservative Johnny Mercer urged the chancellor to do "something, anything" to ease the "harshest" effects of the cuts on vulnerable people. "My duty, and indeed our duty is to shout for the most vulnerable," he said. "Those who through no fault of their own find themselves on the fringes of society, those who through a bit of bad

Summary: A Tory MP has said her party risks betraying its values as she voiced her opposition to tax credit cuts.


Robbie Hall opened the scoring for Oxford before a first-half own goal from Yellows keeper Simon Eastwood levelled. Defender Kelly then headed the hosts in front - his first goal for the Dons - and after an eventful second half, Wimbledon saw the game out to get their play-off push back on track. Hall struck after seven minutes, darting inside and hitting a powerful dipping strike from 25 yards into the bottom corner. But the hosts were back level six minutes later, Dean Parrett crashing a fierce drive off the crossbar which hit the desperately unlucky Eastwood on the back and dribbled in. Wimbledon were in front in the 28th minute after a Parrett corner was met by a towering Kelly header. The Dons were rampant after the break, with Lyle Taylor and Dom Poleon guilty of spurning multiple opportunities to extend their lead, but in the end it did not matter.

The Royal Society warns that the risk of heatwaves to an ageing population will rise about ten-fold by 2090 if greenhouse gases continue to rise. They estimate the risk to individuals from floods will rise more than four-fold and the drought risk will treble. The report???s lead author Prof Georgina Mace said: ???This problem is not just about to come??? it???s here already." She told BBC News: "We have to get the mindset that with climate change and population increase we are living in an ever-changing world ??? and we need much better planning if we hope to cope." The report says governments have not grasped the risk of booming populations in coastal cities as sea level rises and extreme events become more severe. ???People are increasingly living in the wrong places, and it's likely that extreme events will be more common," Prof Mace says. ???For most hazards, population increase contributes at least as much as climate change - sometimes more. We are making ourselves more vulnerable whilst making the climate more extreme. ???It is impossible for us to avoid the worst and most unexpected events. But it is not impossible to be prepared for an ever-changing world. We must organise ourselves right away." The report???s team said the UK was comparatively resilient to extreme events ??? but still vulnerable because of the high density of people living in areas at risk. The report advises all levels of society to prepare ??? from strategic planning at an international and national level to local schemes by citizens to tackle floods or heatwaves. Its scenarios are based on the assumption that the world stays on the current trajectory of emissions, which the authors assume will increase temperature by 2.6-4.8C around 2090. It assumes a population of nine billion. They say they have built upon earlier work by calculating the effects of climate change coupled with population trends. They warn that the effects of extremes will be exacerbated by the increase in elderly people, who are least able to cope with hot weather. Urbanisation will make the issue worse by creating ???heat islands??? where roads and buildings absorb heat from the sun. As well as building homes insulated against the cold, we must also ensure they can be properly ventilated in the summer, the report says. The authors say cutting greenhouse gas emissions is essential. But they argue that governments will also need to adapt to future climatic shifts driven by climate change. They suggest threats could be tackled through a dual approach. The simplest and cheapest way of tempering heatwaves, they say, is to maintain existing green space. Other low-cost options are planting new trees, encouraging green roofs, or painting roofs white to reflect the sun. The authors say air conditioners are the most effective way of keeping cool ??? but they are costly, they dump heat into city streets and their use exacerbates climate change. Flooding is another priority area, the report says. It finds that large-scale engineering solutions like sea walls offer the most effective protection to coastal flooding - but they

Summary: Climate change and population growth will hugely increase the risk to people from extreme weather, a report says.


Police and Crime Commissioner Simon Hayes said the Ms Pinkney was "an incredibly strong candidate". If she is approved, Pinkney will take over from Andy Marsh. Ms Pinkney is currently the Deputy Chief Constable of Sussex Police. Hampshire is currently being run by acting chief constable Graham McNulty. She said: "I am delighted to have been selected as the preferred candidate, and it will be an honour to have the opportunity of serving alongside them." She received the Queen's Police Medal in the 2016 New Year's Honours List. Mr Hayes added: "Olivia was an incredibly strong candidate and will bring a wealth of operational experience and strategic leadership to the chief constable role."

Summary: Hampshire could have its first female Chief Constable by 11 March after Olivia Pinkney has been named the force's preferred candidate.


The relationship drama, written and directed by Jolie, opened this year's American Film Institute Film Festival in LA. Hollywood Reporter said it was "far too long" and suffered from "stasis and dramatic flatness". Variety added that it "it leaves the heart and mind coolly unstirred". It summed up the film as "a gorgeously unhappy 1970s American couple seeking to escape their demons during an extended stay on the Maltese coast". Screen Daily said it was "an intimate art-house film for a major studio" and that it was "sure to garner attention because of the marquee attraction" of its stars. It is the first film in which they have starred together since 2005's Mr & Mrs Smith and is Jolie's third film as director, after Unbroken (2014) and In The Land of Blood and Honey (2011). Screen Daily said Jolie's "commitment to serious themes is undercut by a rigid, overblown style". "No matter the type of story she's trying to tell, she often bears down on it so hard that the film doesn't have much room to breathe," it added. The Wrap called the film "a soporific drama that teeters on parody", adding: "Angelina Jolie Pitt's reputation as a competent filmmaker won't be entirely undone by her third directorial effort but neither will it be enhanced." It said it was "hard enough watching these two talented actors play blanks who have no chemistry with each other, but the effort seems especially pointless when we learn the root of their problems". The film is released in the US on 13 November and in the UK on 11 December.

Summary: Critics have given a lukewarm reception to Angelina Jolie's By The Sea, in which she stars with husband Brad Pitt, calling it a "vanity project".


The bomb, measuring 5ft in length and weighing 1000lb, has been found in Southwark by builders, the Met Police said. The force said officers were called to a building site in Grange Walk at 09:18 GMT. Two schools have been evacuated. A cordon and a 400m exclusion zone have been put in place as a precaution. Traffic is being diverted and several roads are closed. The council said there was "major disruption" in the area especially around Tower Bridge and Grange Walk. It advised people to find other routes home. The Met said it was working with the London Fire Brigade, London Ambulance Service and Southwark Council. Leader of Southwark Council, Councillor Peter John, said: "I can understand how worrying this is for local people, and the council is doing all we can to support them while the emergency services make the area safe." He said there were "well-rehearsed" emergency plans in place and urged residents to go to one of the council's rest centres in Canada Water for hot meals, tea and coffee.

Summary: More than 1,000 homes in south London have been evacuated after an unexploded World War Two bomb was found on a building site.


Lipstick Under My Burkha was earlier refused certification because it was too "lady oriented" and contained sexual scenes and abusive language. The film examines the lives of four women from small town India. The appeals board has given the film an adult certification and asked the directors to make some cuts. The film, starring Konkona Sen Sharma and Ratna Pathak Shah, had its world premiere in Tokyo a few months ago and has since then won several awards at global film festivals. The appeals board said the film would be granted adult certification with "voluntary and some additional cuts and deletions". It also asked the filmmaker to mute a few Hindi words - including one referring to prostitutes - from a couple of scenes, a report said. The Central Board of Film Certification had earlier complained that the film "has abusive words, audio pornography [meaning phone sex], and a bit sensitive touch about one particular section of society [implying it could hurt Muslim religious sentiments]". The film's director Alankrita Shrivastava had described the ban as an assault on women's rights, and challenged it in the appeals court. She told the BBC's World Tonight programme that the censors were "bothered" by the film's female point of view. Film censorship in India has always been quite erratic but the censor board has faced increasing criticism in recent years from the film industry, which accuses it of being irrational, making decisions on an ad hoc basis and being in conflict with India's changing society, says the BBC's Geeta Pandey. Last year, India's censor board had asked the makers of a Hindi film, Udta Punjab, to make 94 cuts, including removal of expletives, references to cities in Punjab and any shots of drugs being consumed, ironically in a film about drug abuse. But director Anurag Kashyup and other producers decided to challenge the order in a Mumbai court, which eventually allowed the film's release with just one cut - a shot of lead actor Shahid Kapoor's character urinating in a crowd. In 2015, the censor board asked the producers of Hindi thriller NH10 to shorten the duration of a violent scene that showed honour killing, had the word "lesbian" muted in romantic comedy Dum Laga Ke Haisha and banned erotic romance Fifty Shades of Grey despite the producers offering to make cuts. The board also shortened the duration of two kissing scenes in Daniel Craig's Spectre before giving it an adult certification.

Summary: An appeals board of India's film censor authority has cleared an award-winning Hindi language film for limited release.


Officials described the findings as a "fire alarm". But they warned that there are major problems with the way the data is collected. The statistics are part of a drive to make the NHS more transparent in the wake of the Stafford Hospital scandal. Neglect and abuse at Stafford Hospital led to hundreds of unnecessary deaths between 2005 and 2008 and prompted a public inquiry. While officials called the Risk Adjusted Mortality Index (Rami) a "fire alarm", they warned that problems gathering the data made it difficult to interpret the figures. Data is collected across the UK and a score of 100 is considered normal. When an NHS organisation scores more than 100 it could be an indicator that the number of patients who are dying is higher than should be expected. A Labour MP who is advising the prime minister on how the NHS handles complaints said she was shocked by the mortality rate at Wales' biggest hospital. In the most recent batch of data, the University Hospital of Wales (UHW) in Cardiff has the highest score of any Welsh hospital at 128. David Cameron appointed Ann Clwyd as an advisor after the Cynon Valley MP complained about the standard of care her husband Owen Roberts received before he died at UHW. Patients and their families had written to her about their experiences at the UHW and other hospitals, she said. She added: "I hope this will act as a warning signal to the Welsh government to check on the quality of care that is being offered to patients in these hospitals. "I am determined to find out the reason for the high death rate at UHW, especially as my husband is now one of these statistics." Dr Graham Shortland, medical director for Cardiff and Vale University Health Board, said: "We have confidence in our staff and the care and treatment they provide and we are reassured by what we are being told by other accepted systems and methods of reviewing quality and safety. "However, we are in no way complacent about this and work is already underway to further scrutinise this data and any link to the coding problems that we are currently tackling." A programme of detailed patient case-note reviews will be expanded, he said. Betsan Powys: RAMI: Ropey And Muddled Information? During the most recent period recorded, five out of six local health boards in Wales had scores higher than 100. However, officials warned that higher scores may be due to problems gathering data, rather than lapses in the quality of patient care. The Rami takes into account other factors about patients, including their underlying health, social factors and their lifestyles. The way the data is collected is known as coding. Welsh government officials say that coding in Welsh hospitals has not been as good as in the English NHS. Other annual adjustments to the index make it difficult to compare mortality rates from year to year. The Welsh government uses Rami scores as one way of measuring performance in the NHS. However, it says Rami cannot be

Summary: Eleven out of 17 district general hospitals in Wales have higher death rates than should be expected, according to statistics published by the Welsh government.


The singer sought damages from the force, and the BBC, over media coverage of a police raid on his home in 2014. On Friday, lawyers told High Court judge Mr Justice Mann that Sir Cliff and the force had come to terms. The BBC, which is still disputing the claim for damages, said it "had a duty to report" the investigation. Sir Cliff said live BBC coverage of the police search of his home in Sunningdale, Berkshire, invaded his privacy. He sought "very substantial" compensation from both South Yorkshire Police and the BBC. In a statement on Friday, a BBC spokesman said: "The BBC's responsibility is to report news stories that are in the public interest." The corporation said the "extensive disclosure of historical child sexual abuse" by other celebrities made the investigation - and a subsequent police decision to search his home - a worthy news story. "A search happened, and because it did, the BBC reported it - just as any other media organisation would have and did," the spokesman said. South Yorkshire Police had already apologised "wholeheartedly for the additional anxiety caused". The force learned of the sex offence allegations in July 2014, searching Sir Cliff's Berkshire flat the following month. In June 2016, the Crown Prosecution Service announced Sir Cliff would face no charges. The star's lawyers said he suffered "profound and long-lasting" damage from coverage of the search, and from being publicly named as a suspected sex offender. They also say South Yorkshire Police contravened guidance on "relationships with the media".

Summary: Sir Cliff Richard and South Yorkshire Police have settled a legal fight over reports naming him as a suspected sex offender.


The young leaders want greater autonomy and changes to the way Hong Kong is governed by China. Voter turnout reached a record high of 58%. Among those elected is Nathan Law, 23, who helped lead the "Umbrella Protests" in 2014 for self-determination. Despite the gains, China's supporters will continue to hold the majority of seats on the 70-seat council. Mr Law expressed shock at the result, saying it showed people "wanted change". The election is the first in the territory since the 2014 unrest, when central areas of Hong Kong were paralysed for weeks by mostly young protesters. They were demanding greater democracy for the territory amid concerns that Beijing was increasingly interfering in the politics of the former British colony, breaking the "one country, two systems" agreement. Beijing denies this, and gave no concessions to the protesters. "I think Hong Kongers really wanted change," Mr Law, 23, was quoted as saying by the AFP news agency. "Young people have a sense of urgency when it comes to the future." Mr Law, whose Demosisto party campaigns for the right to self-determination, had the second highest number of votes in the multi-seat Hong Kong Island constituency. Two candidates from the Youngspiration party, a more vocally pro-independence movement which also has its roots in the Umbrella Protests, were also on course to be elected. However, several veteran democrats failed to retain their seats. "People want change, change meaning that they want new faces... but the price is a further fragmentation [of the pro-democracy camp]," defeated candidate Lee Cheuk-yan told Reuters. Mr Law warned that pro-democracy legislators would "have to be united to fight against the [Chinese] Communist Party". Importantly for Mr Law and his allies, democrats have retained one third of seats in the council - meaning they have the ability to veto major constitutional changes. There will also be more radical voices in the LegCo, with at least six young candidates who support self-determination for Hong Kong occupying seats. China's government has always been opposed to any calls for independence, and an official from the Hong Kong and Macau Affairs Office of the State Council reiterated this point on Monday. Meanwhile, the Hong Kong government's Secretary for Constitutional Affairs Raymond Tam said it would do its best to "bring them [radical activists] around to a more centrist position". "Independence is not realistic at all," said Elizabeth Quat, a member of a pro-Beijing party. "Hopefully this will not be their main objective." The Chinese government has consistently denounced pro-democracy protests, calling the 2014 street occupations "illegal", and stressed that unity is the way forward for the country. Hong Kong papers have noted the "record high turnout" - the highest since 1997. Apple Daily describes "a blazing atmosphere", with hundreds queuing into the early hours. The South China Morning Post notes that a "new generation" has emerged from the vote and may "create more headaches for Chief Executive CY Leung's administration". A lot of mainland Chinese media have refrained from covering the election at all, or only covered it sparingly. Regulators have even blocked some

Summary: A new generation of pro-democracy activists has won seats on Hong Kong's Legislative Council (LegCo).


The Celtic left-back was handed the role in Scotland's crucial World Cup qualifier against Slovenia. And Tierney could continue there against England at Hampden on 10 June. "It's up to the gaffer, whatever he thinks is best and whatever he thinks the team that is going to give us the best chance of winning," said Tierney. Scotland had been left short at right-back after Alan Hutton retired from international football and Callum Paterson suffered cruciate ligament damage. Derby County winger Ikechi Anya had impressed at right-back against England and Canada. But, as Hull City's Andy Robertson revealed after the 1-0 win over Slovenia, head coach Gordon Strachan decided to move one of his three left-backs over to the left. Media playback is not supported on this device Rangers' Lee Wallace missed out through injury, Robertson was chosen on the left and Strachan showed his faith in 19-year-old Tierney for a debut in the right-back role. "I have been training there all week, so I had a feeling I'd be playing there," said Tierney, who was winning his third Scotland cap. "The manager and the coaching staff have been giving me pointers. I enjoyed it." Strachan said before the game that his side needed three points to retain hopes of qualifying for the 2018 finals in Russia. Instead, the victory moved the Scots two points off second-top Slovakia and gave them a fighting chance of making a play-off. It was a big occasion for Tierney's Celtic team-mate, Stuart Armstrong, to win his first cap and the midfielder responded by setting up Chris Martin's 88th-minute winning goal four days before his 25th birthday. Asked about his role in the winner, the former Dundee United player said: "It feels good, but what feels better is to have contributed in a positive way to three points, which we needed to put us in a very good position in the group," he said. "Kech [Ikechi Anya] has made a really good run on the outside just to drag that defender and Chris has held a really good position in the box and has done brilliantly to turn and finish." Armstrong also collected the man-of-the-match award, while Strachan declared it the best Scotland debut he could remember. Clutching his cap, he said: "It's a proud moment to hold this. "It's a proud moment for my family. To cap that off with three points is great." Strachan was widely expected to quit as team boss had they failed to win, but Armstrong thought the side responded well to such pressure. "We had trained well all week, there was a good atmosphere, and it's important sometimes to stay positive when things aren't going the way you want them to," he said. "And I think we responded really well."

Summary: Kieran Tierney is prepared to continue as Scotland's auxiliary right-back after coming through a high-stakes experiment with flying colours.


Dustin Diamond, 37, faces charges of felony second-degree recklessly endangering safety, disorderly conduct, and carrying a concealed weapon. The fight is said to have happened on Thursday in Port Washington, Wisconsin, while Diamond was with his fiancee. Crime reports say the pair had been to several bars before they got into a row with two men and another woman. The fight took place at the Grand Avenue Saloon. When police caught up with the couple's car near the bar, Diamond told police he had a "pen" in his hand when he grabbed one of the men, according to the criminal complaint. Officers found a switchblade knife in the car - the point of it appeared to be covered in blood. Reports say that Diamond later told police he accidentally stabbed the man while he was trying to defend his fiancee - 27-year-old Amanda Schutz. She also faces a charge of disorderly conduct. Diamond appeared in Ozaukee County court on Friday and his bail was set at $10,000 (Â£6,425). His next hearing is set for 29 December. Police said the man who was stabbed was injured in the armpit but is not thought to be seriously hurt. Representatives for Diamond have not yet commented and the actor is yet to release a formal statement. Saved by the Bell aired during the 1990s and followed the lives of a group of high school students. Since the show ended, Diamond has been sued a number of times for failure to pay taxes and in foreclosure proceedings following missed mortgage payments. He has appeared on reality TV shows, made a sex tape and made a documentary called The Unauthorised Saved by the Bell Story. Follow @BBCNewsbeat on Twitter and Radio1Newsbeat on YouTube

Summary: The actor who played Screech in US TV show Saved by the Bell has been charged with stabbing a man in a bar fight.
