to celebrate her birthday. and england bat their way through a nervous final session in sydney to draw the fourth ashes test. lawyers for the tennis champion novak djokovic are preparing for the next round of their legal fight to overturn the cancellation of his australian visa. the tennis world number one is currently being held in a detention centre — as he waits to see whether he can play in the australian open amid a row about his covid vaccination status. his team released documents yesterday and say he doesn't need a jab because he had coronavirus last month. djokovic is stuck in an immigration detention centre ahead of the court case on monday. his case has caused a huge outcry in australia and made headlines around the world. simonjones reports. serbian music plays. supporters of novak djokovic gather outside the immigration detention centre in melbourne where he's staying. they want to see him on the tennis court. the countdown is now on to his court case. 0h, mate, i haven't slept since he came off the plane, we're all sick to the stomach. it's a very unfortunate situation for australia. it's becoming very embarrassing. this was djokovic arriving on wednesday. his legal team said he had received a vaccine exemption to enter the country from tennis australia, because he had tested positive for covid on december 16th. that was the day on which these pictures were taken, showing djokovic maskless at a ceremony in his home country of serbia, at which he was honoured with his own postage stamps in recognition of his achievements. it's unclear whether he had taken a test at this stage. the following day, serbian media says he was pictured handing out awards to young players. his motherjoined a protest belgrade where it is the orthodox christmas weekend. just

the czech republic, has now left the hotel and the country after her visa was cancelled. djokovic had been asked to move to somewhere he could train ahead of the open. it looks unlikely, but he has been given exercise equipment and gluten—free food. one former australian foreign minister is not sympathetic. there's no way you can give him an exemption when exemptions have not been given to people who wanted to go to australia to see dying parents, and, you know, injured relatives. there are all sorts of heart—rending stories about people not being able to see their relatives in australia, but those people are not famous, so they don't get an exemption. but it will now be up to a judge to decide, just a week before the australian open begins. simon jones, bbc news. these are live pictures in melbourne outside where novak djokovic is detained, and these are people supporting him. people in serbia's capital, belgrade, have been holding daily rallies in support of mr djokovic, our balkans correspondent, guy de launey is there. how much backing does he have there? he is enormously popular in serbia and in belgrade in particular. they are holding rallies every day in front of the national assembly and his family say they will keep on doing that until the sun is released from his corner teen hotel in melbourne. —— quarantine hotel and till they son is released. this isn't the kind of rally that is normally associated with the world's best male tennis player, but for supporters of novak djokovic, these are anything but normal times. this event outside serbia's national assembly reflects the widely felt outrage about their champion�*s plight. instead of setting up a warm welcome for the nine—times australian open winner, the host nation found fault with his papers. that has left novak djokovic cooling his heels in quarantine instead of warming up for the tournament. these people are showing their support for serbia's number one sporting star. they have come to express their disapproval for what is happening to him in australia and to listen to the family of novak djokovic explain how they feel about their son spending orthodox christmas weekend in a quarantine hotel in melbourne. just imagine. just imagine if you have a son and he's spending christmas, our christmas, in prison. this is for me a prison. this is not like an immigration hotel, this is prison, because they don't allow him to go out. belgrade's novak tennis centre is where you will find the next generation of serbian champions. klara vaja is targeting victory at wimbledon 2024, when she will be 18. she credits novak djokovic for supporting her development at his tennis centre, and she says she was happy to return the favour at the family rally. i think he deserves all of that, and he deserves our support. he is our man, he is playing for our country. so even if we can't help that much, we are there to support him at least. belgrade's main coronavirus vaccination centre could do with a similar level of support. serbia's overall vaccination rate is languishing below 50%, and novak djokovic�*s ambivalent stance towards inoculation hasn't helped, so not all serbians sympathise with his current situation. translation: i would say that there are some double standards, as on the one hand we are constantly being told that we should get vaccinated, and then when it comes to a person like novak djokovic, we see that there are exceptions. at least the church has given its blessing. patriarch porfirije said that millions of orthodox serbs would remember novak djokovic in their christmas prayers, and they will be hoping that monday's judgment in melbourne will bring deliverance for their sporting icon. as you can imagine serving media on sunday morning ifool of as you can imagine serving media on sunday morning i fool of supportive articles about novak djokovic talking about revelations and the court documents submitted and saying australia is on its knees ahead of the court ruling and his supporters will be out again in front of the national assembly so expect a strong turnout in support of novak djokovic. england's education secretary, nadhim zahawi, has backed the idea of reducing the covid isolation period in england from seven days to five. in an interview with a sunday newspaper, the former vaccines minister also speaks of the country entering a less acute phase of the pandemic — and the possibility of ending free lateral flow tests. our political correspondent jonathan blake is with me it has been up for discussion for a while but nadhim zahawi has suggested if we reduce the period from seven to five days in the uk that would be even more helpful. he is not saying it will happen now and up is not saying it will happen now and up until now in the pandemic into something ministers taken advice on rather than proceed unilaterally but i think it is pretty clear he is talking about when not if this will happen and it comes after the united states took the isolation period down to five and in the uk we have come down from ten to seven days not to recently providing a negative test towards the end. a huge impact on the uk and the economy with vast numbers of people having to isolate and a lot of people would like to see this happen as a way to alleviate some of that pressure. the front page of the sunday times today suggests the end of free lateral flow tests is on the horizon. is that true? it seems not, certainly from what the education secretary has said in interviews this morning and was speaking on sky news in the last hour saying that is absolutely not where we are out and he says he does not recognise the claim that will happen in the next few weeks and asked if lateral flow tests would stay free he said they were absolutely would. i think that is a pretty firm push back against the idea that soon we will be moving to a situation where lateral flow tests are not as they are now freely available, supply issues aside, for all of us to use regularly. he has said we should transition as he put it from a period of pandemic to endemic where coronavirus is something we would deal with cyclically on our yearly basis. let's speak to thorrun govind, chair of the royal pharmaceutical society in england. what would you think of the notion of lateral flow tests at sometime in the future not being free? i of lateral flow tests at sometime in the future not being free?- the future not being free? i think the future not being free? i think the important — the future not being free? i think the important part _ the future not being free? i think the important part of— the future not being free? i think the important part of this - the future not being free? i think the important part of this is - the future not being free? i think the important part of this is to i the important part of this is to realise covid is not going away anytime soon and we are still in the middle of the pandemic. when it comes to health it should not be a case of whether you can afford but whether you can protect your families and the community. as we have seen with vaccines during this pandemic it is just as important those abroad are able to access faxes just as we can hear. we would hate to see lateral flow tests to be in a position where you have to pay for them which means people who cannot afford them would not be able to access them. at the moment in pharmacies, today i will go into the pharmacy and i will have patients who will have to make a decision and they say which medication should i take, i can't afford both. i don't want is to be in a situation in future where people are unable to test and therefore go out and pass on the virus because of their ability to afford a test. mike as you reassured by whatjonathan was saying nadhim zahawi has said on television this morning? i will saying nadhim zahawi has said on television this

separated from his parents in kabul during the chaos of the us withdrawal — is reunited with relatives. a baby boy separated from his parents during the chaotic american evacuation of afghanistan in august last year, has been reunited with relatives. sohail ahmadi, only two months old at the time, was handed to a us soldier as his parents struggled to get into the airport. while most of the family managed to fly out of the country, the little boy was left behind in kabul. he was taken in by a 29—year—old taxi driver, hamid safi, who has now handed the boy over to his grandfather. our correspondent quentin somerville is in kabul and has more. this is the story of the ahmadi family who were part of that deluge of people who fled towards kabul airport after the taliban made it into the city in august. they were moments away from salvation, a flight to the united states, but they got caught in a crush at the gates of the airport and in the panic they handed their two—month—old baby, sohail, to a us soldier. he was handed over the fence. when the family then got inside they couldn't find the baby. they were then evacuated after searching the airport, they were evacuated from kabul, made it to the united states, still kept looking for the baby in the united states in the hope that he had been put on a flight, that he had made it there somehow, and they found nothing. after months of searching and a campaign by an afghan refugee group and a story by the reuters news agency, sohail was found and he was found here in kabul alive and well. he had been picked up by a 29—year—old taxi driver, mr safi, who took the baby to raise him as his own. it seems mr safi was reluctant to give the child back but after pleads from the family and negotiation with the family and a short span of time in taliban detention he has now handed over the baby to his grandfather and other relatives here in kabul. he is alive and well and the expectation is he willjoin the rest of the family, his four brothers and sisters, in texas where they will be resettled in the united states. dozens of people have been killed, thousands have been detained and public buildings have been

christmas day take off. it's hoped the james webb telescope will teach astronomers about the history of the cosmos, as well as search for signs of life on other planets. alice key reports. mission control: we have reached the end of deployment and we are preloading into the launch pad. cheering and applause. celebrations from mission control in baltimore as the final piece of the telescope puzzle slots into place. there are no cameras on board so this live animation was the only way to see the final mirrored wing of the world's largest space telescope unfold. mission control: and we have a fully deployed jws webb observatory. all right. talking to staff afterwards, nasa's director of science praised them for making history. i want to tell you just how excited and emotional i am right now. we have a deployed telescope in orbit. a magnificent telescope the likes of which the world has never seen. so how does it feel to make history, everybody? you just did it! the new observatory will look deeper into space than ever before. infrared technology will allow it to see the first stars and galaxies formed a 13.5 billion years ago. it's also going to be able to look into the really dusty environments around where stars grow up and where new planets are forming. that's one of the places that will help slightly closer to home as well as at the beginning of the universe. and lift off! 20 years in the making, it was successfully launched on christmas day, but it was so big it had to be flat—packed inside a rocket to make it into orbit. over the past two weeks it's been slowly unfurling as it travels nearly one million miles away from earth to circle the sun. but for it to send back images, each segment now has to line up perfectly to act as a single huge mirror. so each one of those mirrors, which is very lightweight, have motors on the back which can move them up and down, tip them sideways, rotate them and even slightly bend them to make sure they have exactly the right focus. nothing this complex has ever been tried in space before, but if it works, by the summer, it should be sending back its first images and scientists say they could revolutionise the way we see our universe. alice key, bbc news. it's usually one of the biggest nights in hollywood, but this evening's golden globes ceremony will be held without a—list stars — or a red carpet. the event is being boycotted after it emerged that the organising committee had not had a single black member for more than 20 years. the awards will be announced via social media, as our entertainment correspondent colin paterson reports. # it all began tonight... tonight, west side story is one of the big favourites to win at the golden globes. but none of its stars and its director, steven spielberg, will be there. the same goes for belfast, which is tied for the most nominations — seven. we're looking to cleanse the community. you wouldn't want to be the odd one out in this street. touch my family and i'll kill you. it is based on the childhood of its director, sir kenneth branagh, who has never won a golden globe. if he does tonight, the way he will find out is on his computer. it is doubtful that he will even care. the golden globes are normally a star—studded event, but they have been beset with problems for the last year. an la times expose revealed that they have not had a single black voter for almost two decades, and there are accusations of unethical practices. this prompted tom cruise to send back the three golden globes he had won. the rights holders, nbc, said they would not broadcast the ceremony, and despite radical changes being introduced, hollywood en masse decided to boycott the event. this week, the golden globes announced that the ceremony at the beverly hilton hotel in los angeles will be a private event and will not be live—streamed, with winners simply being announced on social media. this prompted us talk show host conan o'brien to ask: and ricky gervais, who has hosted the golden globes five times, has even suggested there is a chance this could be the last time they are held. you're the number one trending topic ahead of tater tots, and the pope followed you... as to who could win, when it comes to the tv categories, there could be a procession for succession. the media family drama series has the most nominations, with five. is he going to watch? could we make a note in the minutes that he is watching us? but with no—one able to watch the globes and with things as they are, it is fully expected that tonight's winners will not even acknowledge that they have won. i'm a good guy. i'm better than you. new changes to covid travel testing rules have come into force in england. from today the day two test for
