All over the world Fallon Sherrocks fairy tale bid to become darts first female World Champion ends in the third round. In the last hour the woman whose husband drowned in a pool in spain on Christmas Eve along with two of their children has released a statement correcting whats described as inaccurate information about the incident. John mcmanus is here. Well, she says she wants to correct what she said was inaccurate information that has come out since the tragedy occurred on Christmas Eve on the costa del sol. Her husband and two children drowned in that swimming pool, she says that contrary to media reports perhaps most importantly all three of them could swim, or 52 year old husband and her nine year old daughter and her 16 year old says they could all swim in that she never told the police or anybody else anything contrary to that. She says the whole family were at the pool, the whole family were at the pool, the children were not left unattended at any time and since the children went into the pool themselves by themselves and that nobody fell in and once theyre in the water found themselves dragged into the middle of the pool somehow, that part of the pool was deeper and she said the children then started calling for help. At that point her husband gabriel went into the pool, again by the steps to help them and she then said she ran to nearby apartments shouting for help but by the time she got back to the pool with help all three members of her family were underwater and at that point, it was too late. And of course we have already heard from the complex itself that there were no lifeguards around this pool because it was not particularly deep. Thats right, and the complex themselves and the owners of the resort has said rep in the beginning that they did not think there is a anything wrong with the pool and it has of course reopened since the tragedy, to other people saying at the resort. Initial reports after the resort. Initial reports after the tragedy occurred this ring cap ofa the tragedy occurred this ring cap of a nine Year Old Girl had been found in part of the pool system, but that has never been actually confirmed. But what mrs diya is saying now she think there was something very much wrong with that pool that caused her children and that her husband to drown and specifically that the children were pulled away from the edges of the pool into the deeper centre of the poor were they got into trouble and started calling for help. Thats a key pa rt started calling for help. Thats a key part of the statement and she points out in the statement that the Spanish Police are still carrying out their investigation to try and determine what happened given that the police were those that set on Christmas Day that the pool could be reopened one wonders now in light of the statement whether that decision will be reviewed. It could well be and she says that the Spanish Police are continuing their investigations which sound slightly different to what we have been told before. Heather did not appear to be any suspicious circumstances to the death that it was a tragic accident, mrs her once says to be refuting that suggestion and there is something suspicious about this and something suspicious about this and something wrong with the pool. She also goes on to say that she wants to thank all those people who have extended their condolences to her and the rest of her family over the deaths and that she misses her children and husband very, very much but they are taking comfort and strength from their belief in god. Thank you for bringing us up to date on those developments. The president of kazakhstan has declared a day of National Mourning tomorrow following a plane crash in which 12 people died. Dozens of others survived the accident which happened in poor weather in the city of almaty this morning. Kazakh ministers have promised a full inquiry. Our correspondent Sarah Rainsford reports. Rescued from the wreckage, a baby boy is rushed to safety. He was discovered in the arms of his injured mother after their flight crash landed. Moments after take off, the plane had rammed into a building. It broke into pieces on impact. But there were survivors. And some even walked away from this unharmed. I was sitting next to an emergency exit. Just hours later, Aslan Nazaraliyev managed to tell me what happened. He had posted this photo on social media, showing his seat on the flight from almaty. He thinks most in front of him were badly hurt or killed. The plane starts swaying, like a boat. Very intensively. Everybody starts screaming, kids are crying. And the lights were on in the plane. But there was no sound, there was no instructions from the crew. There was only the sound of people panicking in the plane. The businessman says it took at least 15 minutes for rescuers to arrive. So he and other survivors began pulling people to safety. It was dark, at the same time. We were lighting with cell phone lights, so helping out each other. So all of the guys were trying to take out people. But there was a high risk of a fire. What were you thinking when this was happening . I was thinking about my family. Yeah, thats only what i was thinking. And helping people, that a fire should not kill who survived. The plane was a fokker 100, operated by the low cost carrier bek air. Its entire fleet has now been grounded, whilst the crash is investigated. Kazakhstans government says the planes tail hit the runway twice during take off. The flight had barely got off the ground before it came crashing back down, with terrible consequences that could have been even worse. The president of the uk Supreme Court, lady hale, who retires next month, has warned that the lack of access to Legal Services for those people who most need them, is a serious problem. She expressed particular concern for people going through the early stages of a divorce. Lady hale has been talking to our Legal Correspondent clive coleman, during which she reflected on the momentous day in september when the court ruled that the Prime Minister had acted unlawfully, when he advised the queen to suspend parliament. It was the case of massive legal, constitutional and political significance. The Prime Minister post my advice to her majesty was unlawful, void and of no effect. The Supreme Court ruling that the Prime Ministers advice to the queen to suspend parliament in weeks leading up suspend parliament in weeks leading up to the brexit deadline was unlawful. Now the president of the court is retiring, time to look back on that momentous day. There was a gasp in the courtroom, which was packed when i said that it was the unanimous decision of us all, thats all 11 justices. A time also for lady hail to reflect the removal of legal age in 2013 from a raft of areas including debt, housing and most family cases. Most people need Legal Services at the beginning of a difficulty in if they have them then it will be sorted out. And they will have to go anywhere near a court and will have to have their house repossessed or whatever because somebody has managed to find a solution to the problem as an earlier stage. If that initial advice and help which has serious difficulty. And when you are separating as a couple you are being taken apart emotionally and financially, many people would think that actually its at that point the state should be there. Its unreasonable to expect has been and wife or a mother and father to, who we re wife or a mother and father to, who were in crisis in their personal relationship to make their own arrangements without help. The government says its improving early Legal Support to reduce the number of people going to court unnecessarily. The prorogation was also void. But on the eve of her departure from the highest court in the land, the question Everyone Wants answered, was there any significance behind the spider brooch she wore on that day, even an incy wincy bit . I regret to have to tell you there was nothing behind it. I do almost always wear a brooch if im wearing a dress, or even if im wearing a suit. Its a way of livening up what is otherwise quite dull and the particular dress that i was wearing has a spider on it. And i chose the dress, i didnt choose the spider. As she leaves office, the first female president of the Supreme Court knows she has her critics. The court will now adjourn. But also an army of admirers. Clive coleman, bbc news. The building firm, balfour beatty, has had its contract to refurbish mi6 headquarters in london terminated, after losing a set of floor plans for the project.

Police believe a man, who was shot dead outside his home in south west london on Christmas Eve, may have been involved in criminality in sweden. 36 year old flamur betcheeri was attacked in front of his wife, and young child in battersea on tuesday evening. Ian williams reports. A family home, ready for christmas. Now the scene of a potential revenge killing. Flamur beqiri moved to the uk from sweden sometime in the last five years. He had been out with his wife and child on Christmas Eve, as they returned to home to Battersea Church road around 9pm, a lone suspect shot him multiple times. One of the neighbours that i spoke to described hearing the gunshots from inside her own home as being surreal. Another said they were evenly spaced out. We think that a young lady, who identified herself as a nurse, tried to give mr beqiri first aid at the scene for a while the attacker fled on foot towards battersea bridge road. When you hear shots like that, you think, well, the first thing that comes to mind is there is going to be more shooting. An exchange of fire, but it was just a number of shots and itjust stopped dead. The met have confirmed they are working with Swedish Police on the investigation to understand what, if any, incidents might have led someone to seek retribution against mr beqiri. Reports in the swedish media suggest the 36 year old, a Swedish National of albanian heritage, was briefly on the most wanted list in his home country in 2008. He hasnt been seen for, or hasnt been seen as active for several years, but that doesnt go to prove that he has not been active. Weve heard his name on the grapevine. We have intelligence about him, but, again, i mean, iwas a bit surprised that it was him that was shot. There have now been more than 145 murders in london this year. Another killing that tears a young family apart at a time of year that supposed to bring them together. Ian williams, bbc london.

Firefighters in australia are bracing themselves for more extreme heat as they continue to tackle uncontrolled bushfires. Temperatures above a0 degrees celsius are expected in several bushfire affected states in the coming days, including New South Wales, South Australia and victoria. Since september, the fires have destroyed more than four million hectares thats an area about twice the size of wales. Courtney bembridge reports. Almost 3,000 firefighters have been working around the clock since the bushfire crisis started in september. Many of them are volunteers whove given up their christmas break to try to contain the fires and to save homes. Sporadic rain over parts of eastern australia has done little to help extinguish the flames, but firefighters have taken advantage of cooler temperatures in recent days to try and contain fire fronts. But the cool change wont last long. This is the forecast for monday, temperatures building up to 38 celsius or higher across most of the country. So that will elevate fire dangers and we know the winds will start turning the west northwest, which is why so much work has been going on over this last week, while conditions more mild. The crucial work involves strengthening containment lines to stop the fire spreading. And controlled back burning of dry grass, which acts as a fire fuel. Thats seen as a last resort, an indication of how desperate the situation is getting. In New South Wales, there are more than 100 fires burning, the largest to the west of sydney. Fires are also burning across South Australia. In parts of the state, temperatures rose above a0 celsius, marking the start of a new wave of heat in the continent south. Over the past two weeks, hundreds of people in South Australia have needed medical attention for heat related illnesses. Look out for the signs and symptoms that are generally associated with dehydration, and that includes headaches, nausea, vomiting, dizziness, and ultimately, potentially, collapse. Authorities in New South Wales are also worried about protecting water infrastructure, which could be damaged or contaminated by ash, including the dam, which supplies the majority of sydneys water. A city home to 5 million residents. What that means, when it rains again, what sort of runoff will there be, what sort of siltation will there be . Ash soil, all of that stuff getting into the waterways. The situation is also affecting tourism. Visitors to a famous rock formation in the Blue Mountains took photographs in front of the sign, after the real thing was obscured by smoke. Ive always wanted to see the Blue Mountains, so its such a shame that when weve come, it looks like this. A bit disappointed, we came into sydney, the first couple of days, there was a lot of smoke and smoke haze. It made us cough a little bit, especially at night. Trade is way, way down, and im doing about a third of what i would normally do at this time of year. I think that is the same for everyone. This is usually the busiest time of year for australias tourism industry. And despite the hot conditions and smoke in sydney, more than1 Million People are expected to attend the infamous fireworks display for new years eve. Courtney bembridge, bbc news. The competition watchdog has begun a full scale investigation into amazons bid to buy a stake in the food delivery firm, deliveroo.

Hello and welcome to sportsday im katie shanahan. Coming up on the programme. Wolves fight back to stun champions Manchester City to make them slip further away from leaders liverpool. Another england batting collapse gives south africa the upper hand after day two of the first test. And, Fallon Sherrocks fairytale run at the pdc World Championship comes to an end. Welcome to the programme. Well start with a dramatic night in the premier league, as for the second time this season, wolves have beaten champions Manchester City. It finished 3 2 at molineux, and there was plenty of late drama too. Patrick gearey has the details. The time its almost a quarter past ten. The Manchester City had to somehow keep liverpool visible, hard to and harder still when diego was brought down, we knew it was coming. Said he had to play with ten for 78 minutes, but it was about to get foggier. The first va are saw this as a firewall, city penalty. Rahim sterling to take, but just as city penalty. Rahim sterling to take, butjust as patrizio became a hero, the men with monitors from the radio gold shirts in the area, re tape. A Second Chance for sterling, and one more for luck, he got there in the end. You can hear the wolves fans views on all of that, but while they got mad, their tea m that, but while they got mad, their team couldnt get even, and this time, sterling only needed one goal to make a 2 0. If there was a man to turnit to make a 2 0. If there was a man to turn it around, it was sir ahmed. His goals beat city earlier this season, and he smashed the game back open, he never let city rest. Next, he was hassling another, battle one, valjiminez, 2 2. A wheezing city staggered back onto the ropes, 89 minutes in, and a knock out from matt doherty. Molineux erupted, r0| that will echo through much of merseyside. Patrick geary, bbc news. Ive never seen them with one man less come every single change, we had much more of the ball than we expected, so at the moment, we have to find solutions, but, again, the second half we made mistakes. We we re second half we made mistakes. We were punished for it, but we react to it, and we reacted in a nice way. Playing the way we wanted to do things, combining one side to the other, views on the white areas, the directions to the ball and related, will never be disappointed in a game of football. 80 minutes turned into 11, so it was tough. We were at advantage, but we could not defend the results. Two actions. Credit for the players for the way they fight. 14 points behind liverpool, do you still believe its possible to catch them . We will have to see next game. We just have to win games. Its unrealistic think about that. Dundee united are 14 points clear at the top of the scottish championship despite being held to a draw by neighbours dundee. Looking for their 3rd derby win of the season it was the hosts that took the lead in the fifth minute thanks to a great finish from nicky clark. But a second half strike from Graham Dorrans earned dundee a draw and ended the home sides 100 percent record at tannadice. Some transfer news to bring you as the former Manchester United and sweden striker, Zlatan Ibrahimovic has returned to ac milan on a short term deal until the end of the season.

The hosts ended day two with a lead of 175 helped byjoe roots side losing the final seven wickets of their first innings forjust 39. England international alex hartley from the bbcs cricket social spoke to my colleague chetan par tack and believes the hosts are now very much in command. They have had the day that they wanted. You know . They wouldve been disappointed not to get 300 with about, however, after they were 1155, about, however, after they were 115 5, they wouldve been really happy with their start. 0bviously, with the classic england batting collapse, they finished on top. You talk about that classic batting collapse, where do you think its going wrong time and again . |j collapse, where do you think its going wrong time and again . I dont, i dont know if its necessarily going wrong. England arejust i dont know if its necessarily going wrong. England are just trying to find their feet with test cricket again. They have a new team, so eve ryo ne again. They have a new team, so everyone is trying to find themselves. We got ourselves into a good position withjoe danley and joe route, weathering the storm, and really seeing out the south african bowlers. However, withjoe rootjust getting out after lunch, thats what started the club. Have we seen too many changes in that batting order . Im not sure. You think they came in to put the spot of pulp, and put it on another slot in the batting order, whether or not that was right order, whether or not that was right or wrong, they still had a point to prove with the back, but u nfortu nately prove with the back, but unfortunately they didnt do that today. I think itjust comes from bowling as well. Joe root, of course, has had the spotlight on him massively, he has not had a great 2019. Some are questioning his tactics as well, is that fair . Yeah, i think with the captains, it comes to scrutiny. It was a brave decision to scrutiny. It was a brave decision to bowl forest, but joe to scrutiny. It was a brave decision to bowl forest, butjoe root wouldnt have decided to both first himself and not consulted anyone. He wouldve gone to his bowlers and said theres been a bit of illness around the camp, so best if the bowlers are happy to bowl first, and spoke to the coaching staff, its not just his spoke to the coaching staff, its notjust his decision commits a Leadership Groups as a whole, and u nfortu nately, Leadership Groups as a whole, and unfortunately, its just not paid off this time. The last thing the bowlers wouldve wanted after that sweltering heat yesterday was to be bowling again. How well do you think they did . They have done a fantastic job you know . They have all had to back, so they have all had to be switched on for the whole two days. They ended up bowling again come and picking up key wickets as well. Weve got ourselves into a good position, if we could just pull south africa out now, if they could have a lead of no more than 280, then you never know what happened.
