Hello, good afternoon and a very Happy Christmas. | :00:29. | :00:29. | |
For the first time in nearly 30 years, the Queen has missed | :00:30. | :00:32. | |

Buckingham Palace say she's still recovering from a heavy cold. | :00:35. | :00:36. | |
Shortly, in her pre-recorded Christmas broadcast, | :00:37. | :00:38. | |

Our Royal correspondent, Nicholas Witchell, reports. | :00:41. | :00:51. | |
Morning service at Sandringham, part of the Royal family's | :00:52. | :00:53. | |
Christmas Day routine but with one significant absentee | :00:54. | :00:55. | |
While other members of her family, including the Duke of Edinburgh | :00:56. | :01:01. | |
gathered at the church, the Queen remained at Sandringham | :01:02. | :01:05. | |
from what Buckingham Palace has described as a heavy cold. | :01:06. | :01:11. | |
In a short statement, the palace said that she would take part | :01:12. | :01:14. | |
in the Christmas celebrations, her absence from the church service, | :01:15. | :01:16. | |
the first time in many years that she has not attended, | :01:17. | :01:19. | |
is understood to be a precautionary measure, | :01:20. | :01:21. | |
Also absent from Sandringham, the Duke and Duchess | :01:22. | :01:25. | |
of Cambridge and their children, George and Charlotte. | :01:26. | :01:27. | |
They attended church in the Berkshire village | :01:28. | :01:31. | |

with the Duchess's family, the Middletons. | :01:34. | :01:43. | |
In her Christmas Day broadcast, accorded at Buckingham Palace | :01:44. | :01:46. | |
several weeks ago, the Queen talks about inspiration. | :01:47. | :01:49. | |
She reflects on the achievement of Olympic and Paralympic athletes | :01:50. | :01:54. | |
from Britain and the Commonwealth, when even she met at a palace | :01:55. | :01:57. | |
reception in October, and this year, when the Queen has marked her 90th | :01:58. | :02:00. | |
birthday, she will refer to the inspirational work | :02:01. | :02:02. | |
of the many charities with which she has been | :02:03. | :02:04. | |
She will talk also about the work of the many unsung heroes | :02:05. | :02:08. | |
carers, community leaders and good neighbours, | :02:09. | :02:11. | |
"ordinary people", as she puts it, "doing extraordinary things." | :02:12. | :02:13. | |
Back at Sandringham, the Royal family, minus the Queen, | :02:14. | :02:15. | |
left church, led by the Duke of Edinburgh, to return | :02:16. | :02:18. | |
to Sandringham house for Christmas lunch and then to settle down | :02:19. | :02:20. | |
President Putin of Russia has ordered an inquiry after a military | :02:21. | :02:35. | |
plane heading for Syria crashed into the Black Sea killing | :02:36. | :02:37. | |
There will be a national day of mourning tomorrow. | :02:38. | :02:40. | |
Among the 92 people on board were members | :02:41. | :02:42. | |
From Moscow, Steve Rosenberg sent this report. | :02:43. | :02:50. | |
VOICEOVER: This is one of the final images of the Tupolev 154 jet. | :02:51. | :02:53. | |
It was taken by a journalist before he boarded the 'plane. | :02:54. | :02:55. | |
The aircraft crashed into the Black Sea. | :02:56. | :02:59. | |
The Russians scrambled helicopters and ships | :03:00. | :03:02. | |
but the search became a recovery operation. | :03:03. | :03:04. | |
The 'plane had taken off from a military airfield | :03:05. | :03:15. | |
stopping in Sochi to refuel and the final destination was Syria, | :03:16. | :03:19. | |
But minutes after leaving Sochi, it crashed. | :03:20. | :03:28. | |
President Vladimir Putin offered his condolences to the families of the | :03:29. | :03:33. | |
victims and promised him their full support. | :03:34. | :03:37. | |
On board were more than 60 members of the Russian army's famous | :03:38. | :03:41. | |
song and dance ensemble, once known as the Red Army choir. | :03:42. | :03:44. | |
They had been due to give a concert at the Russian airbase in Syria. | :03:45. | :03:48. | |
Most civilian airlines have stopped using the Tupolev 154, | :03:49. | :03:51. | |
once the workhorse of the Russian aviation industry. | :03:52. | :03:55. | |
In 2010, a Tupolev 154 carrying the Polish president crashed | :03:56. | :03:57. | |
a similar plane caught fire in Siberia before take-off. | :03:58. | :04:08. | |
Throughout the day, the people of Moscow brought flowers to the | :04:09. | :04:12. | |
headquarters of the Russian Army choir. This disaster has left Russia | :04:13. | :04:19. | |
stunned and silent. The Kremlin has promised a thorough investigation | :04:20. | :04:21. | |
into this tragedy. It has also declared tomorrow a day of national | :04:22. | :04:23. | |
mourning. There's been a powerful earthquake | :04:24. | :04:30. | |
in southern chilly. The US Geological Survey says it | :04:31. | :04:39. | |
struck 140 miles southwest of the city of Puerto Montt and had | :04:40. | :04:42. | |
a magnitude of 7.7. but so far there are no details | :04:43. | :04:45. | |
of damage or casualties. The Archbishop of Canterbury Justin | :04:46. | :04:50. | |
Welby says 2016 has left the world He was speaking during his Christmas | :04:51. | :04:57. | |
sermon at Canterbury Cathedral. And Pope Francis has | :04:58. | :05:01. | |
called for an end Our Religious Affairs Correspondent | :05:02. | :05:03. | |

Canterbury Cathedral Justin Welby focused | :05:11. | :05:11. | |
his Christmas Day and division that has marked both | :05:12. | :05:21. | |
domestic and international politics The end of 2016 finds us | :05:22. | :05:24. | |
all in a different kind of world. which feels more awash | :05:25. | :05:29. | |
with fear and division. He went on to suggest | :05:30. | :05:36. | |
that our anxiety is a clear sign that placing our trust in material | :05:37. | :05:39. | |
prosperity has failed. The uncertainty of our world, | :05:40. | :05:41. | |
of our feelings, tells us that our values | :05:42. | :05:43. | |
are in the wrong place. In Rome, where additional | :05:44. | :05:51. | |
security was in place Pope Francis focused | :05:52. | :05:53. | |
on the plight of children, pleading with all parties to end | :05:54. | :05:56. | |
the conflict in Syria. TRANSLATION: It is time for weapons | :05:57. | :06:08. | |
to be still forever, to actively seek a negotiated | :06:09. | :06:13. | |
solution so that civil coexistence | :06:14. | :06:19. | |
can be restored in the country. Pope Francis concluded | :06:20. | :06:21. | |
by appealing for Christians to stand out as people | :06:22. | :06:23. | |
of compassion and self-sacrifice. That is all from me for now. I will | :06:24. | :06:46. | |
be back with the main news at half past 11. | :06:47. | :06:54. | |
From everybody here, have a very merry Christmas. | :06:55. | :06:57. | |
