Reshuffle: Who will be the winners?

Summary: On Monday the losers learnt their fate.

Nick RobinsonPolitical editor Now we will discover who are the winners in a reshuffle made more dramatic and more wide-ranging by the decision of William Hague to quit the post he has filled for four years. If, as expected, he is replaced by Philip Hammond we will see the appointment not just of new foreign and defence secretaries but also new environment and Welsh secretaries - to replace Owen Paterson and David Jones who've both been sacked - as well as a new attorney general and chief whip to fill posts left by Dominic Grieve unwillingly and Sir George Young who stood down. The departure of at least another half a dozen senior ministers one rung below cabinet level leaves room for wholesale changes. This purge of middle aged white men may help make way for the women David Cameron has long promised to promote and for the return of the former Defence Secretary Liam Fox. At the end of today the question will be not which names have come and gone but the political impact of the changes. We may have a new foreign secretary who has said he'd be ready to contemplate leaving the EU if it doesn't change and an attorney general who, unlike his predecessor, would not oppose threatening to leave the European Convention on Human Rights.

Trump Tweetwatch: N Korea nuclear plans 'won't happen'

Summary: Donald Trump often tweets several times a day but doesn't dwell on policy issues and rarely speaks to the press. So his 140-character messages are the main insight we have into the thinking of the US president-elect. But what can they tell us about how his new administration will deal with the world?

The tweet Mr Trump rubbished North Korea's claim to be developing missiles capable of striking the US, tweeting "it won't happen" on Monday at 15:05 EST (20:05 GMT). What does he mean? It's not particularly clear. It could indicate that Mr Trump believes that North Korea will not be able to develop the technology necessary. Or he may think the country's government will collapse, or that the new US administration will be able to persuade North Korea's leader Kim Jong-un to give up his nuclear programme. The BBC's Stephen Evans, in Seoul, says the South Korean government has interpreted the tweet as a warning to Mr Kim that the US will stop such a development from happening, either by military action or by disruptive covert operations. But with the tweet so ambiguous, it is open to many alternative interpretations too. What has Mr Trump said before about the North Korea nuclear issue? The US president-elect has previously called Mr Kim a "bad dude", but he has also said he would be willing to speak to him over a burger (such a meeting would be a significant change of US policy towards North Korea). In an interview in May, Mr Trump said the isolated state's main backer - China - needed to take action to ease tensions. "China can solve that problem with one meeting or one phone call," he told Reuters. And in a follow-up tweet on Monday, Mr Trump said: "China has been taking out massive amounts of money & wealth from the U.S. in totally one-sided trade, but won't help with North Korea. Nice!" How might Trump deal with Kim Jong-un? What is the current US policy on North Korea? The US has long aimed to persuade North Korea to give up its nuclear programme, using a mixture of aid and sanctions, although in October the national intelligence director James Clapper said this was "probably a lost cause". In March 2016 President Obama imposed new sanctions on North Korea after it carried out a nuclear test and a satellite launch. The White House spokesman said: "We will continue to impose costs on North Korea until it comes into compliance with its international obligations." The United Nations Security Council has also imposed sanctions on North Korea over its nuclear programme. How advanced is North Korea's nuclear programme?

डोनाल्ड ट्रम्प अक्सर दिन में कई बार ट्वीट करते हैं लेकिन नीतिगत मुद्दों पर ध्यान नहीं देते हैं और शायद ही कभी प्रेस से बात करते हैं। इसलिए उनके 140-चरित्र वाले संदेश हमारे पास अमेरिकी राष्ट्रपति-चुनाव की सोच के बारे में मुख्य अंतर्दृष्टि हैं। लेकिन वे हमें क्या बता सकते हैं कि उनका नया प्रशासन दुनिया के साथ कैसे व्यवहार करेगा?

Plans to restore Cumbrian reservoir back to nature

Summary: A reservoir which has provided drinking water to people in Cumbria for nearly 100 years is to be restored to its natural state.

Hayeswater, near Hartsop, was dammed in 1908 to provide drinking water to communities around Ullswater. But in 2005 water supply at the site was stopped and engineers will now work to restore to its natural state. Water company United Utilities said removing the weir will allow ecological processes to "happen naturally" again. Steps will be taken to protect Hayeswater's wildlife, which includes a population of brown trout, the company said. This £700,000 project, which could begin next year, is being planned with the Environment Agency, Natural England and the Lake District National Park Authority.

How did Odessa's fire happen?

Summary: Forty-two people trapped by a fire on the third floor of the stately, Soviet-era Trades Unions building burned, suffocated or jumped to their deaths. How did the victims come to be in the building and who started the fire?

The violence erupted as fans marching before a football match were ambushed by pro-Russian activists, eyewitnesses say. Local side Chornomorets were playing Metalist Kharkiv. Hardline fans - known as "ultras" - of both teams agreed to hold a joint march to support a united Ukraine. The group gathered at about 14:00 in Cathedral Square. Some were veteran supporters of Kiev's Maidan protest movement - the Maidan Self Defence Forces - and/or part of the right-wing Pravy Sektor (Right Sector). But eyewitness accounts and videos suggest that many were just ordinary members of the public. The marchers may have suspected trouble in a city with an ethnic Russian minority of around 30%. But as Chornomorets supporter Nadiya Yashan told Ukrainian television: "We never expected an ambush on such a scale and the police to do so little." Tensions were already running high in Odessa because pro-Russian opponents of the Maidan had been camping in a central square - Kulykove Pole - since the February protests which ousted President Viktor Yanukovych in Kiev. Only days before the Odessa violence, in the eastern city of Donetsk, armed pro-Russian militants had attacked a peaceful pro-Maidan march. Some of the pro-Ukrainian marchers' rivals in Odessa were wearing orange and black stripes on their clothing - the so-called Ribbon of St George, one of the most recognised symbols of military valour in Russia. The ribbon is now an emblem worn by pro-Russian separatists in eastern Ukraine. Bogdan, who was part of the fans' march, told the BBC: "People started to walk, they were attacked by these guys in army helmets with baseball bats. Some of them had guns." The clashes appeared to begin on Grecheskaya/Hretska (Greek) Street. A video on YouTube purporting to show the start of the violence suggests that police stood by as pro-Russian activists armed themselves with batons and other weapons. The same video also shows many pro-Ukrainian marchers later smashing paving stones and hurling them at the pro-Russian crowd. Eyewitness Serhiy told the BBC he saw a newsflash on TV at 15:50 local time about clashes there and went to the scene. "It wasn't like close, hand-to-hand combat. It was mostly throwing of pavement blocks by both sides," he said. Other reports suggested some of the activists on both sides were well-armed and well-protected - clubs, metal bars, air pistols, baseball bats and body armour, shields and helmets. An amateur YouTube video appears to show a line of riot police shielding pro-Russian activists, one of whom fires a gun while chunks of paving stone rain down from the crowd on the other side. A number of reports also spoke of armed protesters using the rooftop of the Afina shopping centre to fire pistols and throw Molotov cocktails. There seems little doubt that the gunshots - and reports of casualties - fuelled the anger of the pro-Ukrainian crowd. Serhiy spoke of a "see-saw battle" of about 15 minutes, before the "pro-separatists" started to withdraw. Police said at least three people were shot dead in the running battles before the deadly fire at the Trade Unions House. Over the next few hours the clashes fragmented but a key development appeared to be a move by pro-Ukrainians against the tent city in Kulykovo Pole square. Serhiy said: "People started streaming toward the station, taking Zhukovskoho Street and then taking Pushkinska Street. They chanted 'Long live Ukraine!' and 'Odessa is Ukrainian!'." He said tents in the pro-Russian camp were burning when he arrived and those there had moved to the entrance of the nearby Trade Unions House. "Eventually, they were driven in," he said. By his estimate there were several thousand football fans and about 300 pro-Russians. There was hand-to-hand fighting in the building although, again, it appeared the police did little to intervene. Television pictures and reports suggest both sides were throwing Molotov cocktails. Pro-Ukrainians reported that the pro-Russians were armed and firing pistols and rifles from the upper floors. Russia Today carried video of a man in a bulletproof vest who it said was shooting up at people in the burning building. But the video was later no longer available. It remains unclear how the fire started on the third floor. Pictures clearly showed pro-Ukrainians throwing Molotov cocktails towards the floor. But Serhiy said he saw someone "on the third floor throw a Molotov cocktail through the closed window. However, the glass didn't break and a fire started inside". People struggled to get out of the smoke-filled floor. One survivor told Russia Today: "We couldn't go down, we were seeing people from other floors being brought down and then those rioters down there attacked them like a pack of wolves." But other eyewitness reports, for example in the Kyiv Post, said pro-Ukrainian activists rescued dozens of people from the burning building. Some people got to ledges and were helped by ambulance ladders. Some fell. Some people were reported to have shouted "die" as people fell. One of those who had been at the building, Anatoly, said the people inside were not "pro-Russian activists". He told the BBC: "We are from Odessa. It's just about Odessa, about peace. It was horror. It was annihilation of people believed to be separatists. But I am not separatist, I was born in Odessa." Over the next 48 hours, there appeared to be some respite - both sides bringing flowers to honour the dead. In the aftermath, Ukraine's Prime Minister Arseniy Yatsenyuk had some angry words for the security forces, saying they were "inefficient and they violated the law". He promised a full investigation - right down to "every single police officer". He also said international experts would help to get to the truth of what happened, to make the inquiry transparent. The failings of the security forces appear to be one of the few things people agree on.

George Floyd: Videos of police brutality during protests shock US

Summary: Several videos of police brutality have emerged during protests over the death of African American George Floyd.

In Buffalo two officers were suspended after they were seen shoving an elderly white man to the ground. Meanwhile Indianapolis police are investigating the actions of officers after they were seen beating and firing pepper rounds at a black woman. The reports come hours after a memorial for Floyd in Minneapolis, the city where he died at the hands of police. His killing, also captured on video, has caused outrage and sparked a wave of protests against racial discrimination and police treatment of African Americans in cities across the US and the world. The vast majority of demonstrations over the past eight days have been peaceful but some have descended into violence and rioting, with curfews imposed in a number of cities. At one protest, security forces in Washington DC fired pepper balls and smoke bombs to disperse demonstrators outside the White House, allowing President Donald Trump to walk to a nearby church for a photo opportunity. In response to this on Thursday, civil rights group the America Civil Liberties Union filed a lawsuit, accusing the president, the attorney general and others of violating the constitutional rights of protesters. "When the nation's top law enforcement officer becomes complicit in the tactics of an autocrat, it chills protected speech for all of us," said ACLU official Scott Michelman, quoted by Reuters. More on George Floyd's death In a separate development, police in Arizona released details of the killing of another African American, Dion Johnson, in Phoenix on 25 May, the same day as Floyd. Mr Johnson was shot dead by state troopers after being found "passed out in the driver's seat" of a car which was partially blocking traffic, a police statement said. "During the trooper's contact with the suspect, there was a struggle and the trooper fired his service weapon striking the suspect," police said. The statement was only released after Mr Johnson's family was offered audio of the police dispatch and transportation department video of the incident. What do the videos show? The Buffalo video shows a 75-year-old man approach police officers enforcing a curfew. They then move forward, pushing him back and causing him to fall over and hit his head. As he lies on the ground, blood is seen pouring from his ear. The man was taken away in an ambulance and was later found to have suffered a severe head injury. An initial statement from Buffalo Police Department said the man had "tripped" and fallen during a "skirmish involving protesters", compounding outrage at the incident on social media. Police spokesman Jeff Rinaldo later attributed the statement to officers not directly involved in the incident, adding that when the video had emerged the two policemen who pushed the demonstrator had been suspended without pay. In Indianapolis, the Indianapolis Metropolitan Police Department is investigating after a video was widely shared on social media showing officers beating a woman with batons and shooting her with pepper rounds, the Indianapolis Star newspaper reported. The footage, which has been viewed at least 8m times on Twitter, shows a white officer holding the woman with his arm near her chest. She then twists out of his grip and two other officers beat her with batons, dust clouds appear indicating that pepper rounds have been fired and an officer then presses her face against the pavement. In Philadelphia a student who had been arrested on charges of breaking a police officer's hand has been released without charge after footage emerged of an officer beating him on the head with a baton and another pinning his face onto the street using his knee. The footage shows the 21-year-old student attempt to separate a police officer and a protester before then moving away when a police officer moves to strike him. The Philadelphia Inquirer said the officer had been removed from street duty pending an investigation. In New York City a food delivery driver was arrested 27 minutes after the city's curfew had started, despite being a key worker exempt from the curfew. And in the Williamsburg area of the city, police were filmed charging demonstrators, throwing at least one person to the ground. Other videos showed a man lying on the ground bleeding from the head, and being arrested. How have the authorities responded? On Thursday New York State Governor Andrew Cuomo defended police, saying they were not beating citizens "for no reason", and if they did "it's wrong". City Mayor Bill de Blasio said the authorities were "doing everything from a perspective of restraint". But both men have since condemned the incidents which emerged overnight. In a tweet, Mr Cuomo described the Buffalo incident as "wholly unjustified and utterly disgraceful". "Police officers must enforce - NOT ABUSE - the law," he said. Meanwhile Mayor de Blasio said he had complained to the city police department after seeing the video of the arrest of the delivery worker. What is the background? The incidents happened as police enforced curfews in dozens of cities across the US after a wave of protests sparked by George Floyd's death. Floyd, 46, was stopped by police investigating the purchase of cigarettes with counterfeit money on 25 May in Minneapolis. A video showed him being arrested and a white police officer continuing to kneel on his neck for several minutes even after he pleaded that he could not breathe. Protests erupted and have continued since, across many US cities and also internationally, with rallies on Wednesday in Australia, France, the Netherlands and in the UK, where thousands gathered in central London. A rally in the Australian city of Sydney has been refused permission by a court, amid fears of coronavirus health risks. Thousands had been expected to attend. Floyd's death follows the high-profile cases of Michael Brown in Ferguson, Missouri; Eric Garner in New York; and others that have driven the Black Lives Matter movement in recent years. For many, the outrage over Floyd's death also reflects years of frustration over socio-economic inequality and discrimination. Protests over the death continued in dozens of cities on Thursday despite widespread curfews. They followed a memorial service attended by hundreds, who stood in silence for eight minutes and 46 seconds, the amount of time Floyd was alleged to have been on the ground under the control of police in Minneapolis. A lawyer for George Floyd told the service a "pandemic of racism" had led to his death. Giving the eulogy, civil rights activist the Reverend Al Sharpton said it was time to stand up and say "get your knee off our necks". US protests timeline George Floyd dies after police arrest 25 May 2020 George Floyd dies after being arrested by police outside a shop in Minneapolis, Minnesota. Footage shows a white officer, Derek Chauvin, kneeling on Mr Floyd’s neck for several minutes while he is pinned to the floor. Mr Floyd is heard repeatedly saying "I can’t breathe". He is pronounced dead later in hospital. Protests begin 26 May Four officers involved in the arrest of George Floyd are fired. Protests begin as the video of the arrest is shared widely on social media. Hundreds of demonstrators take to the streets of Minneapolis and vandalise police cars and the police station with graffiti. Protests spread 27 May Protests spread to other cities including Memphis and Los Angeles. In some places, like Portland, Oregon, protesters lie in the road, chanting "I can’t breathe". Demonstrators again gather around the police station in Minneapolis where the officers involved in George Floyd’s arrest were based and set fire to it. The building is evacuated and police retreat. Trump tweets 28 May President Trump blames the violence on a lack of leadership in Minneapolis and threatens to send in the National Guard in a tweet. He follows it up in a second tweet with a warning "when the looting starts, the shooting starts". The second tweet is hidden by Twitter for "glorifying violence". CNN reporter arrested 29 May A CNN reporter, Omar Jimenez, is arrested while covering the Minneapolis protest. Mr Jimenez was reporting live when police officers handcuffed him. A few minutes later several of his colleagues are also arrested. They are all later released once they are confirmed to be members of the media. Derek Chauvin charged with murder Former Minneapolis police officer Derek Chauvin, 44, is charged with murder and manslaughter. The charges carry a combined maximum 35-year sentence. Sixth night of protests 31 May Violence spreads across the US on the sixth night of protests. A total of at least five people are reported killed in protests from Indianapolis to Chicago. More than 75 cities have seen protests. At least 4,400 people have been arrested. Curfews are imposed across the US to try to stem the unrest. Trump threatens military response 1 June President Trump threatens to send in the military to quell growing civil unrest. He says if cities and states fail to control the protests and "defend their residents" he will deploy the army and "quickly solve the problem for them". Mr Trump poses in front of a damaged church shortly after police used tear gas to disperse peaceful protesters nearby. Eighth night of protests 2 June Tens of thousands of protesters again take to the streets. One of the biggest protests is in George Floyd’s hometown of Houston, Texas. Many defy curfews in several cities, but the demonstrations are largely peaceful. Memorial service for George Floyd 4 June A memorial service for George Floyd is held in Minneapolis. Those gathered in tribute stand in silence for eight minutes, 46 seconds, the amount of time Mr Floyd is alleged to have been on the ground under arrest. Hundreds attended the service, which heard a eulogy from civil rights activist Rev Al Sharpton. International protests 7 June As the US saw another weekend of protests, with tens of thousands marching in Washington DC, anti-racism demonstrations were held around the world. In Australia, there were major protests in Sydney, Melbourne and Brisbane that focused on the treatment of indigenous Australians. There were also demonstrations in France, Germany, Spain and the UK. In Bristol, protesters tore down the statue of a 17th century slave trader and threw it into the harbour. Funeral service for George Floyd 9 June A funeral service for George Floyd is held in Houston, Mr Floyd’s home town. Just over two weeks after his death in Minneapolis and worldwide anti-racism protests, about 500 guests invited by the Floyd family are in attendance at the Fountain of Praise Church. Many more gather outside to show their support.

Take That shows to be 'three in one'

Summary: Take That's Gary Barlow said fans can expect "three shows in one" when they play a record breaking run of gigs in summer 2011.

Gary Barlow told Radio 1's Fearne Cotton: "For people with a ticket they can expect Robbie, Take That as a four and Take That as a five." There has been speculation about how the reunited band would split their archive material for the shows. One million tickets were sold in one day for the shows which start in May. "Unprecedented demand" saw ticket sites crash as the gigs went on sale in October. Robbie Williams will rejoin his bandmates on the road for the first time in 16 years when they play at least 25 stadium shows in the UK and Ireland next summer. Take That's new album Progress has topped the UK chart, achieving the biggest opening week sales of any record for 13 years.

Something to chew on - the rising popularity of meal kits

Summary: You know what it's like. You get home after work exhausted, the fridge is empty, and before you know it you're dialling the number of your nearest takeaway. Cooking at the end of a long day can be overwhelming.

By Zoe ThomasBBC Business reporter, New York But there is increasingly an alternative option on people's nightly menus - meal kits sent out to homes in the post. Helping breathe new life into dinner or lunchtime, meal kits supply pre-measured ingredients and full recipe instructions, which aim to help make the process of cooking at home as simple as the 1950s fantasy. The industry - which has its roots in Sweden - had $1bn (£702m) in global sales in 2015. And this is expected to increase to $5bn over the next 10 years, according to consulting firm Technomic. Big players like US firms Blue Apron and Plated, UK businesses Gousto, and Germany's Hello Fresh, have done a lot of the ground work, educating consumers and getting them comfortable with the idea of ordering measured ingredients that they cook themselves. Now smaller, niche players are getting in on the act, offering specific meal kits tailored to particular dietary preferences, food styles and health trends. Food style Purple Carrot has taken the vegan approach. Andrew Levitt launched the brand in 2014 in the suburbs of Boston after learning about the benefits of a plant-based lifestyle. Mr Levitt, like most of his customers, is not a vegan, though he eats mostly fruit and vegetables. After two decades working in the pharmaceuticals industry he was inspired to change direction by a TV documentary "Forks Over Knives" that focused on how a plant-based diet can help improve people's health. Mr Levitt and his wife began testing recipes in their kitchen at home, making sure they were all "kid approved" by their three young children. They also gave prototype kits to their nanny to test how easy they were to use. The company's focus has struck a chord with home-cooks looking for an easy way to whip up vegan dinners. It now has 18 full-time employees, and early investors have given the company $4m to try and help it dominate its particular niche. Last year, Mark Bittman, a former food writer for the New York Times, joined, helping to expand the company's range of vegan recipes. Mr Levitt admits the firm has benefitted from a lack of vegan-focused competition. "If Purple Carrot does its job right we will have all the space around plant-based meal kits," he says. Subscription model Dishes made from meal kits cost on average $11 (£7.50), slightly higher than buying ingredients at the store. But as the companies explain, shipping pre-measured ingredients cuts waste - grocery stores do not sell a tablespoon of soy sauce. For most meal kit providers though, the customers do not shell out for an individual meal, they pay for weekly or monthly subscriptions. Mr Levitt says the subscription model makes it easy for customers, and guarantees sales for the business. Yet Kyle Ransford, founder of California-based Chef'd, has rejected that idea and instead allows users to order one-off meals. "The problem with the subscription is if you like something you can't order it again," he says. "We think the consumer doesn't want to be slotted into this system." The "a la carte", one-off orders model has been tried by others. Plated - the second largest meal kit service in the US - initially offered both one-off orders and a subscription service, but eventually dropped the former. "The move to purely subscription was a logical step in enabling Plated to become a core part of our customers' weekly dinner routine, and has been an important factor in our growth," says Aamir Basheer, vice president of retention and loyalty at Plated. But Mr Ransford, who would not disclose Chef'd sales, believes pre-set menus will eventually turn users off. Baked As users have become used to meal kits they aren't just buying ingredients for a savoury main course. Red Velvet NYC is the brainchild of two sisters who grew up in a culinary-focused family. The company sends everything needed to make tarts, sweet pies or cakes at home. "I grew up with a love of good food," explains co-founder Agathe Assouline-Lichten, whose father was a specialty food importer. After a decade in marketing she decided to turn that love into a business and help people overcome the challenge of whipping up luxury desserts at home. "It's one thing to have a party with a spread of cheese and crackers, it's another to pull a homemade dessert out of the oven," she says. Ms Assouline-Lichten launched her New York business in September as an a la carte service charging $24-$30 per dessert. She plans to expand to a subscription model this summer, sending baking kits once a month. "I wanted a proof of concept," she says, and adds that she now plans to start looking for private investors. As the business has developed it has expanded the products that it sells, and it now offers pans, whisks, and even birthday candles. Ms Assouline-Lichten says Red Velvet is trying to capture the celebration aspect around baking, and make the process as seamless as possible. Health kick The overall meal kits sector markets itself as healthy because the food is fresh and prepared at home. But some companies have taken that one step further, focusing on specific diet trends. New York-based Green Blender sends boxes of fresh ingredients that customers blend into smoothies at home for a subscription price of $49 a week. Amir Cohen - who started the business with his girlfriend Jenna Tanenbaum in 2014 - says the company is focused on being a health brand rather than a meal kit company. But their concept is the same. "We found that when people were making a health change they saw it as a chore," says Mr Cohen. He explains that sending out Green Blender's smoothie ingredients and recipes helps ease the process of living a healthy lifestyle, much like ordering meal kits for dinner makes cooking at night much less hassle. As people become more comfortable with the meal kit ordering concept the jump to ordering all sorts of foods to prepare at home is likely to only grow further, forever changing what it means to be a home chef.

Syed Choudhury appears in court on terror charges

Summary: A Cardiff man who allegedly planned to fight in Syria alongside Islamic State militants has appeared at the Old Bailey in London.

Syed Choudhury, 19, is charged with engaging in conduct in preparation of terrorists acts and inviting support of a proscribed organisation. Mr Choudury, of Grangetown, Cardiff, spoke only to confirm his identity. He was remanded in custody until he is expected to enter a plea on 17 April. Meanwhile, two men accused of helping a 17-year-old Cardiff boy leave the UK to join fighters in Syria will stand trial in London in June.

Islamic State women defiant in face of lost caliphate

Summary: As the battle against the Islamic State (IS) group in eastern Syria enters its final stages, the BBC's Jewan Abdi says the mood amongst many of the jihadists' supporters who have left the area, including many women, remains defiant.

The encampment in the village of Baghuz is barely more than a few holes in the dirt covered with blankets. It is squalid and filthy. But above it flies the black Islamic State flag, fresh and clean. IS fighters had raised it only the day before, an act of defiance in the face of overwhelming odds. "That's a sign they will fight," says a soldier belonging to the US-backed Syrian Democratic Forces (SDF) on the front lines battling the jihadists. Just 24 hours later the battle resumed. It was the end of a ceasefire that had seen more than 12,000 leave in the preceding few days. One day last week in the early morning, more than 20 trucks led by Humvees armed with machine guns went inside the tiny IS enclave to evacuate jihadist fighters and their families. I followed these vehicles on their return journey to the desert where they were checked, separated, and sent on to camps run by the SDF forces. One military commander told me the total number of people evacuated was about 7,000. The hunger and anger was evident on their faces. As I walked among them with my camera, trying to talk to them and film, several IS women suddenly attacked me and threw stones, dust and cans. "Go film the brothers, don't come here. Go. Leave. Go film them, we're the woman of the Islamic State, Allahu Akbar, Allahu Akbar (God is greatest)," they said. A few weeks ago, the SDF estimated the number of IS families and fighters left remaining in Baghuz to be between 1,500 and 2,000 people. But in just two days last week, 9,000 people emerged. The final territory under IS's control may be on its last legs in Syria, but the ideology remains strong among those who have left. Many of the IS women I encountered threatened of violent jihad and raising their children to become jihadist fighters. Two captors for one woman Among the thousands of people turning up out of Baghuz, I also found victims of IS's notorious brutality, including one Yazidi woman called Adiba. A mother of two, Adiba was enslaved for five years after IS attacked her small village in Sinjar, northern Iraq, in 2014. Her husband was one of the hundreds of Yazidi men killed by the jihadist group, and she - like thousands of Yazidi women - was forced to convert to Islam and was used as a sex slave. She says she was enslaved by a Moroccan man who beat her constantly and raped her. He was the father of her two-year-old child. "I had to marry him. When we were alone he wasn't good to me, he was always angry with me, but in front of people he treated me well," Adiba tells me. After Adiba's first captor died, she was taken by another Moroccan man named Ahmed - orders she says came from her first captor in the event of his death. Ahmed, who surrendered to the SDF last week, has denied enslaving Adiba. Most of the people evacuated from Baghuz recently, including many foreigners who travelled to Syria and Iraq to live under IS rule, have been transported to the SDF-controlled camp al-Hol, in the north-east of the country. The camp was designed to accommodate 20,000 people but the UN says conditions there are dire as the numbers have risen to more than 66,000. The global dream of an Islamic State caliphate - a state governed in accordance with Islamic law - is on the brink of collapse, with most of its leadership gone and many captured by the SDF and coalition forces. Hundreds of IS fighters have surrendered. Separated from their families, they sit in long queues in an area inaccessible to journalists, where US Special Forces and SDF soldiers interrogate them and send them on to detention centres and prisons under Kurdish control. After losing their self-proclaimed caliphate, a sense of sadness, anger and indignation was clear among these fighters who are stuck in the middle of the desert, waiting to be moved into detention camps, away from their wives and children.

Ex-Oxford Brookes student president to replace deputy leader

Summary: A former president of Oxford Brookes University's student union will replace a city council's deputy leader after she was deselected by the Labour Party.

Diko Blackings is to take over from Linda Smith as candidate for Blackbird Leys in Oxford, according to the Local Democracy Reporting Service. Ms Smith said her deselection was "part of an organised operation" by grassroots Labour movement Momentum. Momentum Oxford said the claim was "entirely false". Council leader Susan Brown said the selection of candidates by the Labour party to stand for election to the city council in 2020 had begun. Elections will be held for all 48 councillors' posts in May 2020 because of planned boundary changes. Ms Smith, who has represented the ward since 2014, said she was "gutted" to be deselected.

Tales of fear after days of killing in Karachi

Summary: There are fresh fears of instability in Pakistan's largest city, Karachi, after nearly 100 people were killed in shootings and violence last week. Residents of the city - including people living in its strife-torn western neighbourhoods - have been telling the BBC's Shahzeb Jillani of their ordeals.

Last Friday, the port city - with its population of 18 million residents - was shut down after its largest party, the MQM, announced "a day of mourning". Many people said they stayed at home fearing more violence. The MQM, in power for nine years, this month resigned from the government to sit on the opposition benches. That in turn has given rise to fears of renewed political confrontation. The surge in violence last week was widely blamed on armed gangs linked to rival political and ethnic groups. Karachi, considered to be Pakistan's economic capital, is also plagued by extortion rackets, mafia-run land-grabs and turf wars waged by armed groups. The government's move to deploy the Sindh Rangers to restore law and order in the troubled western neighbourhoods of the city met little resistance. But that was scant conciliation to hundreds of families stranded inside their homes without food and water for days, some of whom were evacuated to safer locations. 'Desperate for help' Mansoor Khan, 43, told the BBC that snipers were positioned on the rocky hills surrounding the western suburbs where he lives. "They would shoot at anyone who tried to step out of their home. We had sick and elderly people in the family who couldn't get any treatment. We were stuck and desperate for help." Other residents of the area say that they were too terrified to go out of their houses because of intense gunfire. Maheen Noor, nine, describes with remarkable alacrity the "tak tak tak" of small arms fire. "I wasn't too scared," she said, "because I have heard it before, like when there was fighting in the area two years ago. "But this time, it went on for several days. We couldn't sleep at night. My sister was really freaking out. She stayed close to my father throughout the nights." 'Bullets flying' In many households, food stocks ran low, said neighbourhood activist Afaq Hussain Rizvi. "I lived on tea and water during those days," he said. "Bullets were flying over our heads. The police were there, but they didn't do anything to stop the gunfire." Mr Rizvi says that most people do not have much faith in the security forces. "Once they leave, the fighting could start all over again. The people in this area have no option but to arm themselves for their self-defence." University graduate Syeda Shaista Shahzad said that her neighbour's teenage son was killed by a bullet while peeking out the window to see what was going on. "The attackers didn't seem to care who they were shooting at," she said. "They had automatic machine guns, even grenades and rocket-launchers were used." While the west side of Karachi has borne the brunt of the violence, other parts have not been immune. Seema Hasan, 35, says that while she lives in a "relatively safe neighbourhood", her work is in an area where shootings and violence do sometimes take place. "My parents constantly worry about my safety when I go out," she said. "It affects my personal and professional life. "In many countries, people check the weather or transport news before going out. Here, it's the security updates that people look out for." 'Civil war' Pashtun rickshaw driver Fazal Ayaz has worked in Karachi for 40 years and has the same phlegmatic attitude towards the violence as many other city residents. "I drive my rickshaw all over the city day or not, not knowing where a bullet might come from," he says. "I see a lot of crime, muggings and [people being held at] gun-point. The situation is getting worse by the day. "Sometimes, I tell my passengers I won't go to certain areas where they are shooting people who look Pashtuns. But this is my bread and butter." Mr Ayaz says that people are frustrated and fed up with the killings and shootings which are "forcing people to take matters in their own hands and could lead to an ethnic civil war". Many, like 42-year-old education official Aziz Kabani, fear that Karachi may be entering into another prolonged phase of instability, violence and economic uncertainty which will have a huge impact on Pakistan's struggling economy. "Karachi and its people have enormous potential to compete with any mega-city," he said. "But sadly, it's not being realised and things are deteriorating. It pains us mentally and emotionally to see Karachi suffering like this. "It's like seeing a loved one suffering from a fatal disease and dying a slow death. "But I am still hopeful. This city can, and will, bounce back. I believe the change will come. It will come from the grass-roots. Those at the bottom will lead the change, not the ones at the top."

Are hackers helping or harming us?

Summary: Every week, almost every day, hackers are poking holes in the devices we carry, drive and use. Over the past couple of weeks the numbers and severity of the flaws these technical wizards have found have hit fever pitch.

By Mark WardTechnology correspondent, BBC News in Las Vegas They brought to light a security bug in almost one billion Android phones. Then there was the car hack that led to 1.4 million vehicles being recalled for a software upgrade. Don't forget the vulnerability found in an obscure bit of software that, if exploited, could have shut down big chunks of the net. We've also have emergency patches for Windows and Flash. That's a lot. Is that all? Nope. There's more. At least 32 previously unknown vulnerabilities will be aired at the Black Hat hacker conference in Las Vegas. More will come from the other big hacker conference, Def Con, that is also held in Vegas this week. Some of those bugs have been found in control systems for factories, power plants and other key installations. Should I be worried? Rather than just fret, it would be good to do something about it. Update your phone. Update your browser and operating system. If you drive a Chrysler car affected by the bug, take it to be updated. The basic advice is: update everything you can. But that does not protect you against the bugs found in factories or bits of parts of a nation's critical infrastructure. Nor against the attacks on the online services we use. In those situations the advice is to do as much as you can to protect yourself (choose hard-to-guess passwords as a minimum) and think about what you would do if such a breach affected you. Why do these people do this? It can pay well. Increasing numbers of firms run bug bounty schemes that reward hackers, in one way or another, for finding the vulnerability. Payment is a good reward for work that can be time-consuming, technically challenging and dull. Some vulnerability researchers spend weeks pursuing a hunch only to find out that it leads nowhere. Others use loads of different computers, running scripts for days, battering away at software to see how it reacts when given different kinds of input. It might take tens of thousands of tries to get a result. In those cases, more often than not, finding the problems makes sites and services more secure. They are definitely helping. That's good. It is. Many smart software engineers would, as the saying goes, prefer to light a candle than curse the darkness. In this case the candle is the discovery of a loophole that the real bad guys can slip through. Having more people look over software is a good way to find its flaws. And, it has to be said, the last thing many security researchers do is publicise their work. Most work to a "responsible disclosure" ethic that gives the firm that made the software a chance to fix it before public knowledge about it spreads. Though there have been cases when they researchers publish first and inform afterwards. So we are safer then? In those cases, yes. But sometimes researchers get paid for bugs that are never publicly disclosed. There are stories of huge sums being paid by governments for vulnerabilities they can use to spy on rival and even friendly nations. There are also cyber-crime groups that pay for vulnerabilities that they then roll into exploit kits. These help produce malware that can exploit the loopholes, infect a PC and be used to steal data and cash. That's bad It is. But the software holes put to nefarious uses might also be found by the white-hat hackers too. And, once the holes are known about, thanks to whistle-blowers or other investigations, the ethical hackers can patch them, produce defences or close the hole. There are also more information groups that attempt to make hackers put their technical skills to good use. Initiatives such as I Am The Cavalry recruit security folks and get them to spread the word about making secure software. It's much easier to write code that is full of holes than it is to make it hard to hack. And then there are the numerous groups who spend time fiddling with the kit we have in our homes and then tell the makers of it what they need to do to fix it. One has set up a testing centre for firms making gear that will form the Internet of Things so that can be improved. So are they on our side? They are. And that's just as well because a lot of other people aren't. They are our allies against the relentless, well-motivated and well-funded criminal hackers who want to steal your credit cards and login names, extort cash when they encrypt your hard drive, get you to click on a booby-trapped link or fall for a phish.

Traffic delay warning over Cockermouth Hospital work

Summary: People in a Cumbria town are being warned that some traffic disruption is likely while gas, electricity and water are connected to a new hospital.

The £11m complex in Cockermouth is replacing a 100-year-old building damaged during flooding in 2009. NHS Cumbria said the contractor was working closely with the utilities providers to ensure any disruption was kept to a minimum for residents. Building work is expected to be complete by summer 2013. Once fully operational in the autumn, it would mean the return of consultant clinics to the town for the first time since the floods.

Covid loneliness: 'I craved human touch after months of no hugs'

Summary: Being young, free and single was considered fun - before the pandemic. But with restrictions on who we could meet and where - plus the threat of catching a deadly virus - social lives ground to a halt. For many of those living alone, the isolation of lockdown took a toll on their mental health. Alice Gray tells how a sociable singledom turned into lockdown loneliness almost overnight.

By Alice GrayBBC News I'm Alice Gray, a 29-year-old science communicator and producer from Cardiff. A little over a year ago I was a busy, social, active woman enjoying a rich social life, building a successful career for myself and dating when I found the time. But everything was put on pause - and got really lonely - last March. When lockdown happened I lost all social contact for around five months, with no-one to talk to and no-one to keep me company. And all form of romantic life went out of the window, with no idea of when it could be possible or safe again. I hadn't been hugged in months, and I was really craving human touch and companionship. Humans are social animals, we are meant to be in company with one another. We are especially meant to be around each other in times of stress. Being alone in a pandemic without any of my loved ones went against every instinct I had and I felt like my tank was running on empty in terms of how much longer I could cope. Even when I was at really difficult points, there was no-one to turn to. Being single in the pandemic has been really challenging and I feel like when we have spoken about issues single people have faced during the pandemic, they've been over-simplified to the need for sex. But actually, those single people who have been behaving for the last year - if they are like me - they are feeling a complete lack of affection and comfort for a year. I've been single for five years and I felt like I was really ready to meet someone, and I did try my best! Over the last year I have been stood up on virtual dates and took part in a very awkward virtual speed dating session. Online dating was a fatigued method of meeting people before the pandemic, and it certainly is even more so now. I think even with the promise of the vaccine, it's difficult to have hope for this year. I've been in so many situations where my possible route to company and companionship has been taken away in the last year. My twin sister lives in England and local lockdowns prevented me from seeing her. All of my friends who lived locally had their own bubbles, so I still had no outlet. At Christmas when we were initially told we could see family, that was taken away from us. I wasn't able to see my family at all at Christmas and I haven't been hugged since September. Safety worries after Sarah Prior to the pandemic I was a very active person, but with the gyms either being closed or not feeling particularly Covid-safe, I haven't trained much over the last year. So running, cycling and outdoor activities have been a real lifeline to me. Exercise on my own has always been quite scary, but now, in light of the Sarah Everard case, there seems to be an added dimension. In the last year when I've been cycling and running, I've experienced my fair share of unwanted attention, advances and harassment. I can't go out and utilise the parks near my house, to get the exercise I need after being sat indoors all day on my own and feel safe, and not have to think about a million different things and eventualities as I just try and get some exercise. In a time where outdoor exercise is my only outlet, the bare minimum should be that I can feel safe.

Black Panther to Star Wars: Hit films that became TV shows

Summary: Wakanda forever? Disney certainly seem to think so.

The fictional African kingdom is set to inspire a new Disney+ series based on the wildly successful Marvel film Black Panther, which was released in 2018. A cultural juggernaut, the Oscar nominated film's impact quickly spread beyond cinema, credited as a major step forward in African-American representation in Hollywood. Overseen by black writer-director Ryan Coogler, it also featured a predominately black cast, fronted by the late Chadwick Boseman. Disney have confirmed Coogler will also lead the forthcoming series as part of a five-year deal to flesh out the universe for its Disney+ subscription slate. But just how easy is it to extend a film franchise onto the small screen? There have been many attempts over the years with mixed results. Here are five of the most memorable. 1. Star Wars / The Mandalorian (2019 - present) When Disney acquired the rights to Star Wars from original creator George Lucas in 2012, they promised to expand the universe. As the first live-action television series in the Star Wars franchise, The Mandalorian begins five years after Luke Skywalker's heroics against The Empire in the original trilogy's Return of the Jedi (1983). Created by Jon Favreau exclusively for Disney+, it shifts focus towards the adventures of a lone bounty hunter tasked with protecting a young creature of the same species as Yoda. Their adventures along the galaxy's outer rim have quickly become one of the platform's biggest hits and insulated interest in the universe from the mixed reaction to some of the recent film sequels. In December, Disney announced that the show has been renewed for a third season, alongside a host of similar televisual spin-offs. 2. Buffy the Vampire Slayer (1997-2003) Sarah Michelle Gellar was not the first Buffy Summers but, in perhaps the biggest sign of the show's success, has undoubtedly become the most famous. Kristy Swanson originally played role of the teenage vampire slayer in the 1992 silver screen debut. After the film closed with a $16.6m (£12.1m) box office total, writer Joss Whedon convinced TV execs to let him continue the story on Warner Bros' cable channel. The new format saw the cast refreshed. Gellar stepped perfectly into the slayer role as an empowered heroine, starring alongside Nicholas Brendon, Alyson Hannigan, and Anthony Head, while David Boreanaz's Angel and James Marsters' Spike added spicy love interest. The series soon became far more successful than its predecessor, airing for seven seasons and picking up Golden Globe and Emmy nominations in the process. It also gave Whedon a director's pass to the big-time. In the years since its conclusion, the show found a new audience on Netflix and other streaming platforms, and... you guessed it, is set to be rebooted. Stakes at the ready. 3. M*A*S*H (1972-1983) When Richard Hooker wrote MASH: A Novel About Three Army Doctors in the 1960s, it's unlikely he would've believed the lifespan it would go on to enjoy. A comic look at the lives of officers in a US medical unit during the 1950-53 Korean War, the 1970 film adaptation earned over $80m (£58.6m) at the box office - sweeping five Oscar nominations and the award for best adapted screenplay. But this success was more than matched on the small screen. The roles of Hawkeye Pierce, Hot Lips Houlihan, Trapper John McIntyre, and Frank Burns found perfect fits in Alan Alda, Loretta Swit, Wayne Rogers, and Larry Linville, as the show ran for almost 11 years. Its finale in 1983 drew 106 million viewers, a record at the time, and a fitting send-off after winning 14 Emmys during its time on air. 4. Fargo (2014 - present) The Coen Brothers arguably cemented their distinctive style of biting dialogue and quirky characters with their 1996 black crime comedy Fargo. Its tone, led by the Oscar-winning performance of Frances McDormand as dry-humoured, unrelenting police officer Marge Gunderson, made it a cult classic revered by critics and film fans alike. Nearly two decades later, writer Noah Hawley acted on this lasting acclaim, presenting the Coens with a television script for a series set in the film's universe. Impressed, they approved the idea - jumping on board as executive producers, but leaving the writing to Hawley. Since premiering on Netflix in 2014, the TV show's ties to the film's narrative have been sparse, beyond the snowy Minnesota location and brutal murders, but captured the same tone as the original. Now four seasons in, the standalone storylines and revolving cast - from Ewan McGregor and Kirsten Dunst to Chris Rock and Jessie Buckley - have kept the show fresh (and winning Emmys). 5. Clueless (1996-1999) Alicia Silverstone's turn as Cher Horowitz helped shaped high-school life in the 90s. From the language ("as if!") to the fashion, the summer 1995 flick became a teen staple (and set hearts racing for Brittany Murphy and Paul Rudd). Unsurprising then that a year later a TV series launched on ABC. Rachel Blanchard replaced Silverstone with enough style for the show to keep running for three seasons, but ultimately it lacked the chemistry of the original film and ran out of steam. The teenage infatuation's not quite over yet though. The film is being remade for the Gen Z era, produced by Tracy Oliver, who wrote Girls Trip, with a script by Marquita Robinson, who worked on Netflix's Glow. You just wouldn't put it past Cher to trend on TikTok. Follow us on Facebook or on Twitter @BBCNewsEnts. If you have a story suggestion email entertainment.news@bbc.co.uk.

Labour's challenge over welfare reforms

Summary: When Prime Minister Clem Attlee took to the airwaves in 1946 to set out plans for a "cradle to grave" welfare system, he told the nation it could be proud that Britain was at the "forefront of social advance".

By Rebecca KeatingPolitical producer, BBC Radio 4 Since then, the Labour Party's pride in the modern welfare state has been matched by a struggle to implement radical reform. Even Tony Blair - the most reform-minded of Labour leaders - baulked at comprehensive welfare changes after protesters daubed the gates of Downing Street in blood red paint. But now, in opposition, it seems Labour may be ready to offer the coalition significant support for its attempt to reshape the system. "Where there is an approach that we agree with, we'll obviously work with the government," Shadow Work and Pensions Minister Douglas Alexander said. "We're interested in the proposal for a universal credit and I've said, in principle, of course I support a simpler benefits system and making it easier for people to make the transition from benefits and into work. "The transition in terms of moving people from incapacity benefit to employment and support allowance is a process that was started under Labour but is being continued under the coalition. "We've made clear in relation to the rules around disability living allowance that that's another area where we think we can work with the government." Continuity Part of the reason for this more co-operative stance is that many of the welfare reforms being promoted by the coalition were actually started, albeit more quietly, by Labour. "I think it's right to say that many of the so-called radical changes that we're seeing from the government in fact build on things that Labour was doing over many years," backbench Labour MP Kate Green, former chief executive of the Child Poverty Action Group, said. "The Work Programme moves on from the flexible new deal that we designed. "Moving people from incapacity benefit to the employment and support allowance are Labour initiatives which the government are taking forward." But there are still significant disagreements. Labour MPs remain worried about what is seen as the Tories' more punitive approach and the government's failure to focus on creating jobs. However, even some old warriors of the left are willing to look at more controversial elements of coalition's drive to get people off benefits. Ken Livingstone, the former Mayor of London who has his eye on another term in 2012, supports plans to force people who are unemployed to carry out community work, or risk losing their benefits. "It doesn't do poor and unemployed people any favours to leave them out of work," Mr Livingstone said. "If you get people into the habit of getting out of bed, doing something, having a sense of worth and if that involves getting people who are currently unemployed helping out with the elderly or clearing up an area or things like that, I think it's worth doing." Universal benefits Even seemingly straightforward issues like defending universal benefits and opposing the cuts to child benefit are far from clear-cut issues for many Labour MPs. The chair of the Work and Pensions Select Committee, Anne Begg, has changed her mind on the importance of universal benefits. "When I got elected in 1997 I thought that perhaps we should do away with universal benefits," she said. "However, as a constituency MP I've realised that people have got to feel they've got some kind of stake in the welfare state." "But I have to say that what the coalition government is doing is equally confusing, so it's obviously difficult for all political parties. " There is another reason that Labour is open to finding agreement with the coalition - a sense that it was not as visionary as it could have been in its own efforts to help unemployed people into work. "I think because they were boom years and although you tended to have areas even in London where there was high unemployment, they were marginal... they took their eye off the ball, yes," Ken Livingstone admits. "That's why I think Douglas Alexander is striking the right pose, which is not to reject welfare reform out of hand."

जब प्रधान मंत्री क्लेम एटली ने 1946 में एक "पालने से लेकर कब्र तक" कल्याणकारी प्रणाली की योजना निर्धारित करने के लिए एयरवेव्स का सहारा लिया, तो उन्होंने राष्ट्र से कहा कि यह गर्व की बात हो सकती है कि ब्रिटेन "सामाजिक प्रगति में सबसे आगे" था।


'I trusted my daughter's abuser with my life'

Summary: Julie's daughter was 14 years old when she was targeted by her martial arts coach Matthew Kendall, who went on to shoot himself when his abuse was uncovered. Julie* tells the BBC about the ordeal faced by Sarah*, who's now been awarded damages by the Criminal Injuries Compensation Authority.

Sarah had a seminar with the Telford Thai Boxing Club group, which wasn't out of the ordinary for her to attend anything like that, and she was staying over in Bolton. I had a mobile number ring my phone about 12.30 on the Saturday night and it was Bolton police. I thought there must have been a fight, that's what I initially thought. The officer asked me where I thought Sarah was and did I know who she was with - I couldn't understand why she was asking me. I said I know where she is and who she's with. She said 'would you be surprised if I told you she was staying in the same room as Matthew Kendall?'. I told her she couldn't be, I'd paid for her to have her own room. The officer said we needed to drive to Bolton, because Matthew Kendall has been arrested for child grooming. Initially I thought it had got to be some sort of mistake. Me and my husband got in the car and drove to Bolton. On the way my husband said to me 'Matthew isn't a paedophile'. I just looked at him and said 'what does a paedophile look like?'. We were so trusting, because this is a man that's working with social services and the police, so you've got no reason to doubt them. But after the arrest, it's almost like someone had flipped a switch in my head and it was like everything fell into place after that. There had been a change in Sarah's behaviour before we found out. She wouldn't sit in the living room with us, she wouldn't talk to us. She would literally walk in the house and go straight upstairs to the bedroom. As it went on I kept asking her and she kept saying she was fine, but we could tell in herself she wasn't happy, but we just put it down to being a typical teenager. She's really funny - she's dry with it, and it had gone. She always had that fire in her belly and determination, but it had gone. There was nothing. I used to take her down to the gym and she would sit outside in the car. I would say 'are you going in?', she would say 'Mum, I hate him, he's disgusting'. I'd say 'don't go'. We never forced her to go, it was always something she wanted to do and then she would say she's got to. I never understood at the time, but once that came out all of it made perfect sense. It was only after he was arrested that I started to think back and how she'd be later and later being dropped off back home. I'd ask why they were so late and my daughter would just say they had to stay behind and pack things away, but it was later and later by the time she got home and I'd have to sit up waiting. Sarah's situation was discovered that night in Bolton when the woman from reception rang the NSPCC. She'd been asking Sarah questions at reception. The receptionist must have thought she's clearly a child. The night we went to Bolton to pick her up, when she came out she had refused to speak to the police. I told her there were monumental consequences to this if you've got anything to tell them. She went back in and spoke to them. She said that he had told her if she ever told anybody what he was doing she would end up with a criminal record. My daughter was caught naked in his room by the police. You can't get away from that. He was caught red-handed. She was scared. It wasn't that he had been arrested, it was the repercussions of what she had told them that she was scared of, and then in the space of 72 hours our lives just changed forever. Not only are we being told this man has been doing x, y, z to our daughter, he then shot himself so she had the death of a 39-year-old man on her conscience. Since his death Sarah is trying to move on with her life, but still suffers anxiety and flashbacks. She has been awarded a payout, which she has said she wants to donate to charity. But it's not about the money, it's about acknowledgement [of her being a victim of crime]. It goes a long way; as a family he nearly broke us with what he had done. We would never have believed that this could happen to our daughter and we would never have imagined it of Matthew as we trusted him completely. I trusted him with my life. Matthew Kendall was never charged with any offences. However, in police interviews Sarah said Mr Kendall, from Wolverhampton, would hug her during training sessions, and when they were in his minibus together he would pull into lay-bys and get her to sit on his lap. Sarah told police he suggested she attend one-to-one training sessions and he would lock the door and put the shutters halfway down. She said he would kiss her and sometimes she would kiss him back. She also said he touched her intimately over clothing and guided her hand over his clothing. The Thai boxing club, which Mr Kendall owned, closed after his death. Following representation through legal specialists Hudgell Solicitors, Sarah was awarded damages by the Criminal Injuries Compensation Authority (CICA), a Ministry of Justice-funded scheme to support victims of crime. Michelle Nurse, a specialist in handling claims to the CICA at the firm, said: "The CICA scheme delivers justice in cases such as this where somebody has been the victim of a crime even where there is no criminal conviction. By taking his own life, he of course prevented there being the natural course of justice in criminal courts over his alleged crimes. "We feel it is significant that the CICA has reflected upon the evidence presented to the police and have awarded damages to our client."

Linklater's epic 12-year journey back to Boyhood

Summary: Director Richard Linklater has long defied being boxed into prescribed Hollywood genres. His eclectic catalogue of films, including Slacker, Dazed and Confused, School of Rock and the Before trilogy lay testament to a creative mind open to playing with subject matter, format and time frames - and pushing boundaries. Yet, his latest independent film, Boyhood, would seem a groundbreaker too far, even for him.

By Rebecca Thomas Arts and entertainment reporter, BBC News On the face of it, Boyhood seems conventional enough - a story of a boy's journey from childhood to young adulthood. But factor in its epic 12-year shoot and Boyhood is clearly far from run-of-the-mill. For the audience, Boyhood is a conventionally manageable experience of just over two hours. However, the usual capsule shoot was replaced by annual short, sharp bursts of filming with the same central cast - played by Patricia Arquette, Ethan Hawke, Ellar Coltrane and Linklater's own daughter Lorelei - from 2002 to 2013. The result is a film that truly covers 12, often rollercoaster, years in the life of a family - albeit fictional - and specifically the evolution of the central character Mason, played by newcomer Coltrane, whom we do literally see grow up from the age of six to 18. Linklater's says his motivation was simply that he wanted to make a film about the experience of childhood. But he was floored by how to do this given the vastness of the territory. "Why not try to encompass it all?" says the director by way of explanation for what he went on to do. "It was like taking a great leap of faith into the future." Innocent though it sounds, Linklater's query seems to gloss over the unpredictability of life and what might happen to the film's stars along the way. But you'd be wrong, says the director. "I'm a calculated risk taker. My dad was in the insurance business and his job was to assess risk and look at the statistics. So I see the world that way. "We've got five people - the four family members and me - and statistically I could have insured that we would have all been here 12 years on from the start of the project. "But just being alive poses numerous risks every day. How do you know something traumatic isn't going to happen that will change your life? "And then there is the 'unknowness' of the future. What if Ellar turns out to be this horrible, awkward actor, what if, what if, what if….. "But I had faith in my ability to adjust the film a little bit every year, to work within the reality of my four ageing cast members as well as changes in culture and society. "It was a collaboration with the future." The story follows the dreamy Mason as he struggles to grow up and find an identity within an ever-fluctuating home and social environment. An absent father, house moves, financial hardship, the bad relationships of his mother, and an overbearing older sister - played by Lorelei - are all thrown Mason's way. And as he grows into adolescence, the inevitable angst of self-image and girlfriends rears its head. "It's the perspective of childhood as a young boy," says Linklater. "Mason's sister is represented well but as you come to the centre of your own life, your parents and your siblings and all these other forces that have been controlling you fall away and you gain more agency so the film mirrors that. Mason becomes the star of his own show." Though scripted, there's a fluidity and naturalistic feel to the narrative and dialogue and action. The biggest artifice in the film is the soundtrack, carefully chosen songs - many by Coltrane - to reflect the era onscreen. Conversations often seem improvised and the changes in the appearance of the central characters give Boyhood the pathos of a fly-on-the-wall documentary. It's an impression accentuated by the lack of "bells and whistles" moments as Linklater's eye is firmly on the day-to-day minutiae of human life. This, he says, is the stuff that ultimately makes us who we are. "I give myself a long time to go through ideas to get things right and get rid of the bad stuff. Hollywood doesn't. If this had been a 'Hollywood' film, it would have gone on things like the first kiss and it would have used swelling music. "But I wanted to avoid all that and work the way your memory works for reasons you don't fully understand. A distillation of the essence of life is how I see cinema. "I'm a minimalist, I get close to life and don't remember all the big stuff, I remember this detail or moment. So this is my memory and personal experience of this subject." But this is not Michael Apted's Seven-Up TV documentary series. This is fiction. Given this dichotomy, and the unprecedented contract, it's a wonder Linklater managed to lockdown his central cast. Yet, both Hawke, who plays the one-time absent father Mason Sr whose trying to make amends, and Arquette - struggling mum Olivia - were unequivocal in their support. "They came on board immediately, I trust artists and they said, 'What a cool idea'. They saw the possibilities and jumped in. They didn't have a perspective on the 12 years," says Linklater. Hawke's past work with Linklater on the Before trilogy explains his trust in the director. But Medium star Arquette was taking a risk, particularly as a woman facing the prospect of seeing herself age on screen. "Patricia is fearless and didn't mind," says the director. "She put in a fearless performance. There's not a lot of vanity. She'd say: 'It's a Saturday morning, I wouldn't be wearing make-up, I don't want to wear it.'" When it came to finding the actor to play Mason, Linklater had a tougher task. After seeing a lot of what he calls "normal, parent pleasers", Linklater hit upon Coltrane. "He was unusual and different and came from an unconventional artistic background and was mostly home-schooled. He was the most interesting of all those I saw. He wasn't coming out of any cookie cutter," says the director. "He was his own guy but I liked his thought process, he was like he is now, mysterious, ethereal and he sees things in a unique way." And as he grew older, Coltrane added his own ideas to Linklater's and the script was tweaked accordingly along the way. Linklater seems to have an instinct for potential. He has previous form in giving Oscar-winners Matthew McConaughey and Ben Affleck their early breaks in Dazed and Confused. And, says the director, it's an innate fascination in human nature and the essence of life that drives his film-making. It's an ethos Linklater builds upon as Boyhood unfolds and ultimately leaves you with. "You've just seen an epic but every moment is distilled down to 'it's always right now'. Many religions and disciplines are trying to reach the goal of appreciating the moment. "The film had a positive effect in advancing Ellar's spiritual maturity. It made him realise that so much of what he was doing was capturing moments and living in the moment. That is what the film is about." Boyhood is released across the UK on Friday 11 July.

Reading jail considered as site for new theatre

Summary: Plans for a new theatre in Reading have been unveiled, with the former Reading Prison considered as a possible site.

Melvin Benn, who runs the Reading Festival and is also chairman of Theatre And Arts Reading, unveiled a "vision" for a 400-seat venue. He said a new arts venue would help the town "obtain national recognition as an outstanding cultural hub". Reading Prison, where playwright Oscar Wilde was jailed, closed in November but the site is not yet up for sale. The Ministry of Justice owns the Grade II-listed building. The new theatre would complement the 1600-capacity The Hexagon theatre and 220-capacity South Street arts centre in Reading.

Sumatran orangutans: Meeting the refugees of the lost rainforest

Summary: Durrell Wildlife Conservation Trust was set up by Gerald Durrell with the aim of saving species worldwide. Harriet Bradshaw has been looking at the work they are doing with one particular species - the Sumatran Orangutan.

By Harriet BradshawBBC Radio Jersey In the early hours of a morning in June my phone rings. The high pitch shrill wakes me up. I have been waiting for this call. The crackly voice on the speaker sounds strained. "Harriet? It's Rick. I've got news about Dana…" I'm only six months older than Dana. When I look into her eyes she stares back with intelligence. We are alike. We share 97% the same DNA and we are both female. Neil MacLachlan, a consultant from Jersey's General Hospital, tells me her anatomy is so similar to mine it is relatively straight forward for surgeons such as him to operate on her. But, for all the similarities, Dana and I are very different. From the small things like her two missing fingers that were bitten off in a fight, to the dramatic tragedy she faced four years ago when she was bleeding to death after giving birth to a stillborn. Second chance It is estimated there are fewer than 7,000 of her kind left in the wild, compared with more than seven billion human beings sharing the same planet. This is because Dana is a Sumatran Orangutan, a Great Ape on the brink of extinction. She lives in captivity in Jersey as part of a reserve population at the Durrell Wildlife Conservation Trust. After Dana gave birth to a stillborn in 2009, she was thought to be infertile. But medical intervention gave her another chance when Neil MacLachlan, consultant gynaecologist from Jersey's General Hospital, performed reproductive surgery on her. Soon she became pregnant. I travelled to Sumatra in early May to trace Dana's roots and make a documentary about efforts to save her species. While her pregnant tummy was growing bigger, and she was being trained to present it for ultra-sound scans, I was getting vaccinated ready to travel to where her wild relatives live. Dr Ian Singleton runs Sumatra's only rehabilitation programme for orangutans who he calls "refugees of the lost rainforest" because he says their forest homeland is being cleared and developed. He took us to the overcrowded cages of orangutans at his quarantine centre on the outskirts of the city of Medan. Their cries for attention, so similar to a human child, still haunt me. 'Vicious humans' Orangutans are protected in Indonesian law, but about 30 enter the care of Dr Singleton's Sumatran Orangutan Conservation Programme each year. He said: "There was one Orangutan - Matahari her name was - she had been beaten unconscious, they put a chain around her neck and she was almost dead. Her whole body was swollen, fingers missing, chopped off. "We brought her to the quarantine and kept her alive for three weeks before she finally packed in. That was horrible. And what really struck me about that case was just how vicious human beings can be." Dr Singleton said there was research to show that since 1985 about half of Sumatra's rainforest had gone due large scale industries developing it, particularly for palm oil. The oil is extracted from the fruit of palm trees and used in products from biscuits to shampoo. On the road through Sumatra you can see rows and rows of this mono-crop. Indonesia is the world's largest exporter of the oil with estimates of more than 30 million tonnes being sent abroad. The Indonesian Palm Oil Association says the industry helps alleviate poverty by providing jobs, it is a top contributor to the country's economy and its members are committed to protecting the environment. Dr Singleton said: "The biggest threat to most species right now is not hunting and collection, it's loss of entire eco-systems and by destroying them you lose your water sources, your climate regulation and a host of other resources." Seeing the orangutans in Sumatra puts into context the captive ones in Jersey. Gerald Durrell set up his zoo as a safety net for species such as them, should their wild relatives go extinct. But on the 50th Anniversary of him turning his vision into a charity, has his philosophy of saving species from extinction succeeded? Dana's keeper, Gordon Hunt, accompanied me to Sumatra. He said: "If Sumatran orangutans do go extinct in the wild then captive populations like these ones in Jersey at Durrell could well be like museum relics of the species. "That would be incredibly sad, that all we have left is orangutans left living in zoos. If that is what is left of the Sumatran orangutan then I think as human beings we have failed." Arriving back in Jersey I get ready for bed one evening. My phone is set to loud so I did not miss news of Dana's pregnancy. Staff have been waiting eight and a half months for the birth, and in early June I finally have news. At quarter to midnight on 9 June 2013 a female orangutan came into the world, and the birth was caught on camera - thought to be a world first. This baby is a small but significant symbol of hope for a species on the edge of extinction.

Ulster University Magee expansion 'to cost £70m a year'

Summary: Northern Ireland's minister for employment and learning has said he supports, in principle, an expansion of Ulster University's Magee campus.

However, Dr Stephen Farry said the financial situation meant he may have to cut hundreds of university places. In an assembly debate, he said he was already dealing with a smaller budget. An expansion of Magee in Londonderry would mean he would need to find recurring costs of almost £70m a year, he said. The minister said the situation has been compounded by an executive decision to force him to retain extra payments for St Mary's and Stranmillis teacher training colleges. Last August, the minister said the expansion was "off the table" because of budget cuts.

TPP: What is it and why does it matter?

Summary: The Trans-Pacific Partnership (TPP) is one of the most ambitious free trade agreements ever attempted.

Its supporters have billed it as a pathway to unlock future growth of the countries involved in the pact. The critics have been equally vociferous, not least because of the secrecy surrounding the negotiations of the agreement. But despite the criticism, the countries involved have been pushing for a deal to be reached soon and they are confident that even more economies will want to join the pact in the coming years.
