Broadcast overview
An AI-generated overview based on this broadcast's transcript.
Russell Brand's trial opened at Southwark Crown Court, where the prosecution called him a sexual predator who expected his desires to be met. He denies three rape counts, three sexual assault counts and one indecent assault, with allegations from six women between 1999 and 2009. In Ukraine, 600,000 people were without power after deadly Russian strikes, and officials claimed Starlink was restricted overnight amid questions over US intelligence sharing. In Westminster, Andy Burnham faced the first Prime Minister's questions since conference season over Russian interference claims and Manchester City, and said he wanted to repair bridges on Ukraine and that Zelensky would not leave Britain empty-handed, with faster delivery of surface-to-air missiles.
The family of William Chapman, 23, who died after entering a tiger enclosure at Yorkshire Wildlife Park, said he had significant mental illness and was prescribed strong medication; an inquest opens tomorrow. Wayfair, Appliances Direct and Gold's Gym were fined a combined £6 million for misleading sales tactics, and BBC analysis found vehicle thefts in England and Wales rose by more than 50% in a decade, with just 3% of offences charged or summonsed. Pope Leo was expected to stay in hospital for a week after surgery for cancerous lung tissue, the King planned to write to him, Royal Mail faced concerns over workloads and a new delivery system before Christmas, and swimmer Archie Goodburn, who has brain cancer, was due to meet the Prime Minister. The world's oldest shipwreck, a Bronze Age vessel with ceramic cargo up to 4,700 years old, was found off Turkey, and the Master Locksmiths Association reported a big rise in complaints about rogue locksmiths overcharging or unnecessarily drilling doors.
In the West, a Kingswood mother waiting for an urgent heart transplant in Cambridge said separation from her family was awful, as her community raised money to help them visit. Tributes were paid to Annette Bishop after her husband was charged with her murder. An Environment Agency investigation found chemicals from firewater runoff at a Bristol warehouse fire entered Brislington Brook and may have caused wildlife deaths. A Somerset MP asked for remoteness funding to be restored, Gloucester's only tower block was set to be demolished and replaced, and the 100th anniversary of Winnie the Pooh was marked.
