Good evening and welcome to BBC News. | :01:20. | :01:50. | |
In one of the biggest shocks in sporting history, | :01:51. | :01:52. | |
Leicester City have been crowned Premier League champions. | :01:53. | :01:56. | |
Their closest rival in the title race was Tottenham Hotspur, | :01:57. | :01:59. | |
but they failed to win at Chelsea tonight, handing the | :02:00. | :02:03. | |
The Prime Minister has just tweeted his congratulations saying it was | :02:04. | :02:28. | |
well deserved. That will be the first of many congratulations across | :02:29. | :02:32. | |
social media for Leicester City in the coming days. Joe Wilson is at | :02:33. | :02:38. | |
Stamford Bridge. While the Leicester City fans celebrate, many would | :02:39. | :02:42. | |
rather be in the stands, watching the team playing and winning, but | :02:43. | :02:50. | |
perhaps just now they don't care. I reckon if Leicester City fan you | :02:51. | :02:53. | |
have won the Premier League, they would take than anyway that it came. | :02:54. | :02:58. | |
They can look forward to the last home game of the season next | :02:59. | :03:03. | |
Saturday against Everton. That would be an outpouring of joy and | :03:04. | :03:07. | |
celebration. So much of this season has felt like Dapper Leicester City. | :03:08. | :03:11. | |
This fearlessness that has come every week, knowing that there are | :03:12. | :03:15. | |
doing something that's nobody expected them to do. Here at | :03:16. | :03:21. | |
Stamford Bridge, we have the crowds disbursing. There is a general | :03:22. | :03:26. | |
feeling of revelry amongst the Chelsea supporters. They have had | :03:27. | :03:31. | |
little to cheer this season. The title defence went so badly wrong. | :03:32. | :03:38. | |
What was in the minds of the supporters and many of the players | :03:39. | :03:42. | |
was that they really wanted to stop Tottenham Hotspur winning the title. | :03:43. | :03:48. | |
There is an animosity between those teams. Spurs came here knowing that | :03:49. | :03:54. | |
they have to win all of their remaining games and hope that | :03:55. | :03:57. | |
Leicester City slipped up. In the first half they look back a far | :03:58. | :04:07. | |
better team. What we saw in the first half was a very modern | :04:08. | :04:13. | |
Tottenham Hotspur. Harry Kane scored, having a great victory | :04:14. | :04:20. | |
season. John Terry had come back into the Chelsea defence. We did not | :04:21. | :04:25. | |
anticipate Chelsea getting back into this game at all. They got back into | :04:26. | :04:31. | |
it with a goal from K Hill. In the 82nd minute, Eden Hazard, it was his | :04:32. | :04:39. | |
goal that was the equaliser. It finished 2-2. This game was | :04:40. | :04:44. | |
full-blooded. There were incidents and accidents every couple of | :04:45. | :04:49. | |
minutes. If you happen to be on an FA disciplinary panel, reviewing | :04:50. | :04:54. | |
this game could take to the rest of the week. One incident but Diego | :04:55. | :05:06. | |
Costa in particular, with our Tottenham player looking to put his | :05:07. | :05:12. | |
fingers towards the eyes of Diego Costa. Tonight, Leicester have done | :05:13. | :05:18. | |
it without kicking a ball. Picking up from the Prime Minister said, | :05:19. | :05:22. | |
thoroughly deserved, there will be a lot of people echoing words tonight. | :05:23. | :05:27. | |
They have lost just three times in the season. This was a team that | :05:28. | :05:39. | |
basically surprised everybody! In the past we have had unusual teams | :05:40. | :05:48. | |
getting to the FA Cup, recently Wigan winning the FA Cup. If you win | :05:49. | :05:56. | |
the Premier League you have to do it over a sustained period of | :05:57. | :06:01. | |
excellence. What has happened to Leicester City has been an | :06:02. | :06:07. | |
inspiration to so many clubs. Sport needs that element of | :06:08. | :06:10. | |
unpredictability and that is why it in raptures us. The Premier League | :06:11. | :06:19. | |
had come quite predictable, four or five clubs and convention -- in | :06:20. | :06:27. | |
contention every season. This has made it seem possible that any team | :06:28. | :06:30. | |
could win. Sorry, we are losing the sound. | :06:31. | :06:47. | |
That's big to Lee Foster at the BBC sports centre. You were watching | :06:48. | :06:53. | |
that match. It was a heated match and understandably so. It was really | :06:54. | :06:59. | |
ugly. Nine yellow card is for Tottenham Hotspur as they saw the | :07:00. | :07:04. | |
match on the title slip away. There were some very ugly scenes in the | :07:05. | :07:07. | |
tunnel afterwards as both sets of players and staff got embroiled and | :07:08. | :07:14. | |
had to be pulled apart a stewards. All manner of things were going on | :07:15. | :07:18. | |
in the tunnel. I think it was frustration boiling over for | :07:19. | :07:23. | |
Tottenham. In any other year, you look at the achievements and you | :07:24. | :07:26. | |
would say it is a fantastic season. It will be like that at the moment. | :07:27. | :07:33. | |
The Prime Minister had used the word extraordinary, and we are all | :07:34. | :07:38. | |
reaching for the records across all sports, individual and team, to try | :07:39. | :07:42. | |
to work out when there has been a more unlikely champion. Perhaps an | :07:43. | :07:48. | |
individual sports, yes, Ben Curtis winning the open, Goran Ivanisevic | :07:49. | :07:53. | |
winning Wimbledon, but Leicester across the course of the Premier | :07:54. | :07:58. | |
League season, coming out with two games to spare, they are seven | :07:59. | :08:04. | |
points clear ahead of Tottenham Hotspur, it must go down as one of | :08:05. | :08:07. | |
the most unlikely and greatest sporting achievements. It was only | :08:08. | :08:13. | |
this time last season that Leicester were just getting their heads above | :08:14. | :08:17. | |
water because they had been bottom of the Premier League for over six | :08:18. | :08:23. | |
months. They sacked the manager, Nigel Pearson, after he helped them | :08:24. | :08:27. | |
survive then they reached out for a man that English but all fans and | :08:28. | :08:31. | |
Chelsea fans know very well indeed, Claudio Ranieri. He was sacked at | :08:32. | :08:37. | |
the beginning of the Roman Abramovich tenure. He went away and | :08:38. | :08:42. | |
reinvented himself at Valencia, Monaco, Inter Milan. He had been out | :08:43. | :08:47. | |
of work for a while before he came back to the Premier League. He was a | :08:48. | :08:52. | |
laughing stock in the Greece national job, losing five games with | :08:53. | :08:56. | |
them, including once against the Faroe Islands. If there was no way | :08:57. | :09:02. | |
back for him. When he was appointed at Leicester, with no real star is | :09:03. | :09:06. | |
no real hope to stay up and survive again it was felt, they really | :09:07. | :09:11. | |
thought, is this a man who can fit into this kind of job at Leicester? | :09:12. | :09:15. | |
He certainly did. And the players who came on board. Riyad Mahrez, | :09:16. | :09:31. | |
Jamie -- Jamie Vardy. He has just been... Jamie Vardy has been | :09:32. | :09:35. | |
suspended for the last two matches. They have done it without him, | :09:36. | :09:40. | |
really. He is the top scorer with 22. Harry Kane scored his 25th of | :09:41. | :09:46. | |
the season to be the top scorer in the Premier League, but all to no | :09:47. | :09:53. | |
avail for Spurs. They have to pick themselves up for the last matches | :09:54. | :09:58. | |
against Southampton and Newcastle to try to remain runners up. Leicester, | :09:59. | :10:05. | |
no matter what happens at home to Everton, and then away at Chelsea, | :10:06. | :10:10. | |
would you believe, you would think there will take some champion time | :10:11. | :10:14. | |
at them to Stamford Bridge, to tell them thank you. One case just for | :10:15. | :10:21. | |
Eden Hazard! He scored against Spurs this evening. He looked at all the | :10:22. | :10:29. | |
Premier League winners 20 years, since that first Premier League back | :10:30. | :10:35. | |
in 1993, Manchester United won it then the rise of Chelsea. Then you | :10:36. | :10:41. | |
had Arsenal, the invincible scum of the rise of Manchester City. The | :10:42. | :10:45. | |
anomaly was black and Rovers until today. Blackburn Rovers doesn't | :10:46. | :10:50. | |
compare at all. I was speaking to the star striker Chris Sutton before | :10:51. | :10:56. | |
the weekend and he said what we did Blackburn Rovers will not compare to | :10:57. | :11:02. | |
what is Leicester City have done. We were expected to challenge, he said, | :11:03. | :11:07. | |
with runners up the year before, top for the year before that. A lot of | :11:08. | :11:11. | |
money was pumped into Blackburn Rovers, so don't put us in with | :11:12. | :11:16. | |
Leicester City. Perhaps you have the go back to 1978 and Brian Clough's | :11:17. | :11:22. | |
Nottingham Forest side. They gain promotion to the top division then | :11:23. | :11:26. | |
won the title against the great sides such as Liverpool at the time. | :11:27. | :11:31. | |
That was considered to be an amazing achievement, but never was the gulf | :11:32. | :11:37. | |
in funds and status between side so fast as it is at the moment, so put | :11:38. | :11:41. | |
the likes of Leicester with a combined squad total of ?30 million | :11:42. | :11:49. | |
to go up against the likes of Arsenal, who have players worth that | :11:50. | :11:55. | |
alone. Manchester City, Chelsea. It has been a freakish season, not just | :11:56. | :12:00. | |
Leicester winning the title, but the fact that Chelsea, who we saw that | :12:01. | :12:06. | |
in such a performance as they said they would against Spurs tonight to | :12:07. | :12:10. | |
help Leicester win the title, because remember they were the | :12:11. | :12:14. | |
champions in the champions in the Premier League has actually put in a | :12:15. | :12:18. | |
worst offence, because Chelsea are finishing well out of the European | :12:19. | :12:23. | |
places. It will rankle with Spurs fans. A lot of the ball watchers | :12:24. | :12:27. | |
wondered if it was right that Cesc Fabregas and Eden Hazard who came | :12:28. | :12:32. | |
off the bench and scored the equaliser for Chelsea, they were | :12:33. | :12:35. | |
very public and saying that we want Leicester to win the title. They | :12:36. | :12:44. | |
still have Leicester to play on the last day of the season. | :12:45. | :12:46. | |
Extraordinary. It is extraordinary. Some of what a has been. Incredible | :12:47. | :13:06. | |
scenes here. We are in the pub that is a short walk on the Leicester | :13:07. | :13:12. | |
City stadium. A few moments ago, that nail-biting finish, the fans | :13:13. | :13:16. | |
here just erupted. Champions for the first time in the 132 year history. | :13:17. | :13:22. | |
When Chelsea were to happen to you wrote down to Tottenham I think many | :13:23. | :13:27. | |
thought they would have to sort it out next week against Everton at | :13:28. | :13:32. | |
home. But Chelsea got the equaliser and the draw was enough to mean that | :13:33. | :13:36. | |
Leicester are champions. How are you feeling? Shaken. I am surprised I | :13:37. | :13:45. | |
haven't cried yet. I am shaking. It is so hot in here! I don't think | :13:46. | :13:52. | |
anybody has really taken it in yet. When Chelsea were 2-0, did you think | :13:53. | :13:59. | |
that was it? It wasn't looking good, was at? I think people were a bit | :14:00. | :14:05. | |
deflated. But then you would think you will just minutes on Saturday in | :14:06. | :14:09. | |
front of our home crowd. Thank you, Chelsea! How did you feel when the | :14:10. | :14:16. | |
equaliser went in? It was amazing. It was a really good goal, as well. | :14:17. | :14:23. | |
Chelsea turned it on in the second half. For the fans holding up a sign | :14:24. | :14:30. | |
saying do it for Claudio Ranieri, thank you. Leicester fans are used | :14:31. | :14:35. | |
to this, are they? Not at all. Anything could happen next season! | :14:36. | :14:40. | |
Thank you for your time. What is amazing is that there is such a lot | :14:41. | :14:44. | |
of goodwill towards Leicester from the neutrals. People who may not | :14:45. | :14:50. | |
support one of the big clubs that are normally vying for the Premier | :14:51. | :14:57. | |
League title. Leicester were 5000-1 outsiders. I don't think anybody | :14:58. | :15:03. | |
would have believed that they would've been the champions the | :15:04. | :15:06. | |
Premier League. Many thanks for that. The congratulations continued | :15:07. | :15:15. | |
to come in as Leicester win the Premier League for the first time in | :15:16. | :15:19. | |
their history. The Prime Minister has tweeted, many congratulations to | :15:20. | :15:22. | |
Leicester, an extraordinary and thoroughly deserved the merely | :15:23. | :15:30. | |
title. Gary Lineker has just tweeted. I met Claudio Ranieri add | :15:31. | :15:34. | |
to the game and he said Gary I don't want to see you do Match of the Day | :15:35. | :15:39. | |
in your pants. That was that he had to do Match of the Day in his | :15:40. | :15:45. | |
underpants. The SGD, cloudy, says Gary Lineker! Former Leicester City | :15:46. | :15:51. | |
player Steve Claridge joins me on the line. I suppose you are rubbing | :15:52. | :15:59. | |
your eyes very hard tonight! I think for a while we have imagined that | :16:00. | :16:04. | |
this scenario would happen. I don't think that it is such a surprise | :16:05. | :16:08. | |
because they have been so very good for so very long. This was on the | :16:09. | :16:14. | |
cards. I thought it was a case of when rather than if. It is an | :16:15. | :16:24. | |
incredible achievement. It is, but within this fairy tale there are | :16:25. | :16:30. | |
remarkable undercurrents. The star goal-scorer -- goal-scorer who | :16:31. | :16:32. | |
worked in a factory because he was told he wasn't good enough. The | :16:33. | :16:41. | |
coach who had been dumped. That they built a side on a fraction of the | :16:42. | :16:47. | |
challengers. There will be a film made about this! I think they are | :16:48. | :16:52. | |
every neutral's popular choice because they haven't done of the | :16:53. | :16:55. | |
conventional way. They were very good last season. They played the | :16:56. | :17:02. | |
whole of the season the way they had finished it we wouldn't have been | :17:03. | :17:08. | |
far away last season. To carry on that sort of form throughout the | :17:09. | :17:14. | |
season is incredible. The best thing is when the leagues. I don't think | :17:15. | :17:17. | |
anybody can argue that they haven't been the best team this year. Fans | :17:18. | :17:21. | |
are starting to gather outside the stadium. You have been a player, | :17:22. | :17:28. | |
coach, commentator. Where did it go right for a Leicester City? It is a | :17:29. | :17:34. | |
combination. There is no doubt that other teams have slightly taken | :17:35. | :17:38. | |
their eye off the ball and that is taking nothing away from Leicester. | :17:39. | :17:42. | |
Would you say that Manchester City have performed to the true ability? | :17:43. | :17:48. | |
No, they haven't. Liverpool have sacked their manager. Manchester | :17:49. | :17:55. | |
United haven't had a good year. You wonder if Arsenal will ever win the | :17:56. | :18:08. | |
title under Asim Wenger. It is virtually impossible to beat sides | :18:09. | :18:13. | |
of that ilk about things going your way, but you have to have the | :18:14. | :18:18. | |
wherewithal, the intelligence, the ability, the energy to take | :18:19. | :18:21. | |
advantage of that. They have done that. In all honesty, it is very | :18:22. | :18:26. | |
difficult to see this ever happening again. They will have got to | :18:27. | :18:32. | |
Christmas and they were going well at Christmas, then they got beaten | :18:33. | :18:35. | |
by Liverpool. He looked at the Arsenal game and you just stop, at | :18:36. | :18:41. | |
Chile, this is the test. The test wasn't the last 67 games, it was | :18:42. | :18:45. | |
around Christmas when they still had have a season left, could they go to | :18:46. | :18:50. | |
the end of the season? They came through that test. We are looking at | :18:51. | :18:54. | |
the moment that they knew they had the Premier League. Jamie Vardy, | :18:55. | :19:02. | |
seen as the man of the season, a fairy tale season for him. An | :19:03. | :19:08. | |
astonishing rise. He is likely to be in the England squad. Should we have | :19:09. | :19:13. | |
high hopes for that? Think we should. Defensively we are a little | :19:14. | :19:20. | |
bit lacking in the quality that is required to win the competition, but | :19:21. | :19:24. | |
we have players now, as is so against Germany, that are very good | :19:25. | :19:29. | |
going forward. Carl Walker was fantastic, Danny Rose was very good, | :19:30. | :19:35. | |
Harry Kane was sublime at times. There are some really good players | :19:36. | :19:38. | |
that we can all look forward to watching in an England shirt. I bet | :19:39. | :19:45. | |
G you never expected to do this interview! Everybody here has the | :19:46. | :19:53. | |
privilege of being alive to enjoy this occasion should make the most | :19:54. | :19:57. | |
of it because it is very difficult to ever see this happening again. It | :19:58. | :20:01. | |
is quite wonderful. Let's look back to Leicester's remarkable season | :20:02. | :20:06. | |
with our sports reporter and the Swiss. | :20:07. | :20:09. | |
It is a story straight out of a comment perk of a team staring at | :20:10. | :20:14. | |
relegation barely a year ago he turned the footballing world upside | :20:15. | :20:18. | |
down. How do you explain the seemingly inexplicable? At the | :20:19. | :20:25. | |
centre of it players. Leicester find A* as were others barely look. Jamie | :20:26. | :20:31. | |
Vardy from lowly Fleetwood Town. Riyad Mahrez from the French second | :20:32. | :20:40. | |
division. The entire first 11 cost just ?23 million. In Premier League | :20:41. | :20:44. | |
terms, little more than this change. Recruitment is the hardest thing in | :20:45. | :20:48. | |
the hall and Leicester have been magnificent. Jamie Vardy in | :20:49. | :20:54. | |
non-League the ball, Riyad Mahrez ?350,000. A lot of the players in | :20:55. | :20:58. | |
the team have been reject from other teams. And an unlikely star manager. | :20:59. | :21:04. | |
When he arrived last summer Claudio Ranieri had just been sacked by | :21:05. | :21:08. | |
Greece and at first his new team struggled defensively, so the | :21:09. | :21:13. | |
Italian gave them a very Italian incentive. I said when we make a | :21:14. | :21:19. | |
clean sheet alibi make everybody a pizza. Sure enough, he treated them | :21:20. | :21:26. | |
to a pizza class. In the process he served up a winning formula. That | :21:27. | :21:32. | |
pizza making session in this room proved the turning point for the | :21:33. | :21:36. | |
season. The leaky defence begin the tightest in the league and that also | :21:37. | :21:40. | |
summed up the spirit and unity that the manager so successfully built. | :21:41. | :21:47. | |
He showed up for my birthday. I don't think too many managers do | :21:48. | :21:51. | |
that. We are having fun with each other. At the same time you can | :21:52. | :21:57. | |
switch around and be very focused on what we need to do. For all the | :21:58. | :22:05. | |
talent, the timing has been key. Chelsea, Manchester City, Manchester | :22:06. | :22:09. | |
United and Arsenal all faltered. Leicester have been fortunate with | :22:10. | :22:13. | |
injuries, using just 23 players, fewer than anybody else. The | :22:14. | :22:19. | |
underperforming big clubs have helped Leicester, taking full | :22:20. | :22:23. | |
advantage. Wouldn't surprise me of next season Leicester finish in | :22:24. | :22:27. | |
bottom half. I think this is a one season wonder that will never happen | :22:28. | :22:33. | |
again. This is ultimately fantasies that ball. Leicester's story defies | :22:34. | :22:38. | |
logic. The impossible dream that has become a glorious reality. | :22:39. | :22:50. | |
47 people back to Leicester have 5000-1 at Ladbrokes. That was the | :22:51. | :23:02. | |
start of this fairy tale. We sought the remarkable Jamie Vardy having a | :23:03. | :23:10. | |
fairy tale season of his own. Let's show you the moment of the final | :23:11. | :23:14. | |
whistle went Leicester City knew they had the Premier League. | :23:15. | :23:32. | |
That is how the fans were celebrating. Let's look at Jamie | :23:33. | :23:55. | |
Vardy and cool watching. CHEERING. If you want to watch this | :23:56. | :24:21. | |
again it will be available on the BBC News website very shortly. Jamie | :24:22. | :24:28. | |
Vardy the. That was targeted by Christian Fuchs just 30 seconds of | :24:29. | :24:36. | |
the players seeing the unbelievable. Jamie Vardy had a fairy tale season, | :24:37. | :24:41. | |
an astonishing rise after joining the club from Fleetwood in 2012. | :24:42. | :24:45. | |
Much more analysis and reaction throughout the evening. | :24:46. | :24:49. | |
We'll find out how this story and many others are covered | :24:50. | :24:52. | |
in tomorrow's front pages at 11.30pm this evening in The Papers. | :24:53. | :24:55. | |
My guests tonight are journalist and author Rachel Shabi | :24:56. | :24:57. | |
and Political Correspondent for the Daily Telegraph | :24:58. | :24:58. | |
The first cruise ship to sail from the United States to Cuba | :24:59. | :25:21. | |
in more than 50 years has docked in Havana. | :25:22. | :25:23. | |
The Adonia sailed from the port of Miami in Florida | :25:24. | :25:25. | |
The crossing was only possible because Cuba scrapped a ban | :25:26. | :25:28. | |
on its citizens entering or leaving the island by sea last week. | :25:29. | :25:31. | |
Diplomatic ties between the two countries are being rebuilt | :25:32. | :25:34. | |
after being severed following the Cuban Revolution. | :25:35. | :25:35. | |
Our correspondent in Havana Will Grant travelled | :25:36. | :25:37. | |
There was a sense of expect a nation among the passengers. When we awoke | :25:38. | :25:46. | |
on board this morning and found have are not on the horizon it was quite | :25:47. | :25:50. | |
a breathtaking moment. The closer we got to the city you could begin to | :25:51. | :25:53. | |
hear the crowds and the captain started sounding the horn, which was | :25:54. | :26:00. | |
being returned with the horns of the drivers of the 1950s cars. It was | :26:01. | :26:06. | |
quite a touching moment, and an important one. Up until this stage a | :26:07. | :26:10. | |
lot of the things that we have seen in Cuba, the opening of embassies, | :26:11. | :26:15. | |
the re-establishing of diplomatic ties, even the visit by President | :26:16. | :26:20. | |
Obama, for a lot of ordinary Cubans, it asked the question, what does | :26:21. | :26:26. | |
this mean to me? When you see scores of Americans, and Cuban-Americans, | :26:27. | :26:30. | |
not forgetting that this cruise ship caused a change in the rules and | :26:31. | :26:34. | |
migrations of Cuban born nationals can return to the island by C, | :26:35. | :26:37. | |
something that was not permitted until recently, that does make a | :26:38. | :26:43. | |
difference to their lives. That means potentially more work and | :26:44. | :26:47. | |
income and it means that they too can travel by boat. I think this is | :26:48. | :26:51. | |
significant diplomatically as well as economically and on that | :26:52. | :26:58. | |
fraternal level. In the Cuban Communist Party FNP saw in the | :26:59. | :27:01. | |
recent congress that they want to put the brakes on it, they have | :27:02. | :27:05. | |
almost gone too far too fast on the one to make sure that things can get | :27:06. | :27:10. | |
out of hand in terms of the push towards capitalism or private | :27:11. | :27:14. | |
businesses. That said, I think a lot of ordinary Cubans just think that | :27:15. | :27:17. | |
the time has come for change. This is a relationship based on the Cold | :27:18. | :27:22. | |
War, it was hostile when there was no need to be, and that the time had | :27:23. | :27:29. | |
really come for a new start. This ship, this service, the | :27:30. | :27:31. | |
re-establishment of passenger services between the two countries | :27:32. | :27:35. | |
does feel like part of that new start. | :27:36. | :27:40. | |
Warmer weather is on the way but for the next couple of nights in rural | :27:41. | :27:47. | |
parts of southern Britain it is still cold enough for a touch of | :27:48. | :27:51. | |
frost. A stronger winds across northern Britain where we are | :27:52. | :27:57. | |
getting some showers overnight. Some heavy, with the rumble of thunder. | :27:58. | :28:02. | |
Some snow on the highest hills. Integral part of the South, some of | :28:03. | :28:05. | |
us will be close to prisoners Tuesday begins. For England and | :28:06. | :28:10. | |
Wales, plenty of morning sunshine. Very hit and miss, much of southern | :28:11. | :28:15. | |
England stays dry, for Scotland and Northern Ireland heavy showers in | :28:16. | :28:19. | |
the morning, some thundery. They will lose their intensity by the | :28:20. | :28:24. | |
afternoon. Warmth heading in from the site this week's of southern | :28:25. | :28:27. | |
areas get it first, transporting northwards across much of northern | :28:28. | :28:32. | |
Britain by the weekend, and a lot of dry weather to come this week with | :28:33. | :28:33. | |
some sunshine. Delirious fans celebrate | :28:34. | :30:11. | |
as the club - written off at the start of the season - | :30:12. | :30:14. | |
wins the title for the first It's a dream! A dream come true! | :30:15. | :30:28. | |
Amazing! It is epic! Speechless! Amazing! | :30:29. | :30:31. | |
We'll be looking at how Leicester became the Premier League's | :30:32. | :30:33. | |
Scientists hail a "milestone" in understanding what | :30:34. | :30:41. | |
It could lead to new methods of treatment. | :30:42. | :30:46. | |
The US Secretary of State insists a peace deal in Syria must include | :30:47. | :30:50. | |
the city of Aleppo - the focus of recent intense fighting. | :30:51. | :31:16. | |
Leicester City are tonight champions of the Premier League in one | :31:17. | :31:19. | |
of the most extraordinary stories in the history of the game. | :31:20. | :31:21. | |
Written off at the beginning of the season, the club defied | :31:22. | :31:23. | |
the critics and upset huge odds to clinch the title | :31:24. | :31:27. | |
And they did so without even kicking a ball, after their nearest rivals, | :31:28. | :31:31. | |
Spurs, failed to win against Chelsea. | :31:32. | :31:34. | |
For a second day in a row, fans packed into pubs and bars | :31:35. | :31:38. | |
across the city of Leicester to see if the fairytale would come true. | :31:39. | :31:43. | |
Our sports editor, Dan Roan, is outside | :31:44. | :31:45. | |
This is what it means for Leicester City to become the new, the least | :31:46. | :32:00. | |
likely and probably the most popular Premier League Champions there has | :32:01. | :32:03. | |
ever been. Thousands of fans have flooded out on to the streets of the | :32:04. | :32:07. | |
city, many of them, as you can probably see and hear, are behind me | :32:08. | :32:11. | |
at their home, the King Power Stadium, where, at the weekend, they | :32:12. | :32:14. | |
will be presented with the Premier League Trophy. Let's not forget, | :32:15. | :32:20. | |
they were 5,000-1, rank outsiders to win this league before the season | :32:21. | :32:24. | |
began. They have done it. They have turned the football, no, the sport's | :32:25. | :32:29. | |
world upside-down, fairy tale complete, they are the new | :32:30. | :32:33. | |
champions. Yes, the new champions of the Premier League. Here is the | :32:34. | :32:34. | |
story of the night. The final chapter in | :32:35. | :32:39. | |
sport's greatest story. This, what it means to the city | :32:40. | :32:42. | |
of Leicester tonight to see their team become | :32:43. | :32:45. | |
the new and most unlikely Premier League Champions | :32:46. | :32:47. | |
there's ever been. This afternoon, mastermind | :32:48. | :32:51. | |
Claudio Ranieri had rearranged his travel plans, | :32:52. | :32:54. | |
the manager flying back early from a day trip to Rome | :32:55. | :32:57. | |
to watch the decisive His players choosing to view | :32:58. | :33:00. | |
the game together at the home Leicester knew that if Spurs | :33:01. | :33:04. | |
failed to beat Chelsea, The early signs were good, | :33:05. | :33:11. | |
Cesc Fabregas going But then the viewing became painful | :33:12. | :33:15. | |
for Leicester's followers watching in pubs around the city, | :33:16. | :33:21. | |
Spurs taking the lead. Spurs intent on keeping | :33:22. | :33:25. | |
the title race alive. TV cameras picking up this | :33:26. | :33:31. | |
from Moussa Dembele, But the second half | :33:32. | :33:36. | |
belonged to Chelsea. Gary Cahill pulling one back | :33:37. | :33:43. | |
and then the equaliser. This, the moment | :33:44. | :33:49. | |
Leicester's unlikely dream For those who have | :33:50. | :33:58. | |
followed them for years, It's insane! It is epic! Speechless! | :33:59. | :34:03. | |
Champions of England! Leicester City's achievement | :34:04. | :34:25. | |
arguably surpasses sport's other great triumphs | :34:26. | :34:27. | |
in defiance of the odds. Goran Ivanisevic was a 250-1 | :34:28. | :34:30. | |
wildcard when he won Wimbledon, while unheralded golfer | :34:31. | :34:33. | |
Ben Curtis was a rank 300-1 outsider Brian Clough's Nottingham | :34:34. | :34:35. | |
Forest team won the league, the season after being | :34:36. | :34:43. | |
promoted and then successive European Cups and a member of that | :34:44. | :34:46. | |
legendary side sees parallels. Leicester City have done absolutely | :34:47. | :34:49. | |
magnificently this season. I would say in football, | :34:50. | :34:54. | |
it's probably the biggest story since Nottingham | :34:55. | :35:01. | |
Forest in 1977/78. And so the ultimate | :35:02. | :35:06. | |
underdogs come out on top. Proof that in sport | :35:07. | :35:10. | |
anything is possible. So resolute, so consistent have | :35:11. | :35:22. | |
Leicester City been, it is easy to forget what a big sporting shock | :35:23. | :35:26. | |
this is. Let's not forget that Leicester City, at the start of the | :35:27. | :35:29. | |
season, were favourites to be relegated. Their squad cost a | :35:30. | :35:33. | |
fraction of their richer rivals, some of the wealthiest clubs in the | :35:34. | :35:36. | |
world. Their manager, Claudio Ranieri, had a reputation for being | :35:37. | :35:41. | |
the nearly man of football. No longer, here is Andy Swiss trying to | :35:42. | :35:44. | |
make sense of how Leicester did it. It is a story straight | :35:45. | :35:48. | |
out of a comic book, of a team staring at relegation | :35:49. | :35:50. | |
barely a year ago, who turned So how do you explain | :35:51. | :35:52. | |
the seemingly inexplicable? Leicester found stars | :35:53. | :35:57. | |
where others barely looked. Jamie Vardy, from lowly | :35:58. | :36:04. | |
Fleetwood Town. Riyad Mahrez, from the | :36:05. | :36:07. | |
French Second Division. COMMENTARY: Leicester are proving | :36:08. | :36:10. | |
what a team they are! Their entire first 11 | :36:11. | :36:13. | |
cost just ?23 million. In Premier League terms, | :36:14. | :36:17. | |
little more than loose change. Recruitment is the hardest | :36:18. | :36:21. | |
thing in football. Leicester have been | :36:22. | :36:23. | |
magnificent at that. Vardy, in non-league football not | :36:24. | :36:25. | |
so long ago. There is a lot of those players | :36:26. | :36:27. | |
in that team that have been To go with those unlikely stars, | :36:28. | :36:33. | |
an unlikely star manager. When he arrived last summer, | :36:34. | :36:39. | |
Claudio Ranieri had just been And at first, his new team | :36:40. | :36:41. | |
struggled defensively. So the Italian gave them | :36:42. | :36:47. | |
a very Italian incentive. I said, when we make clean sheet, | :36:48. | :36:51. | |
I pay to everybody a pizza. Sure enough, when that | :36:52. | :36:55. | |
clean sheet arrived, he treated them to a pizza class | :36:56. | :36:57. | |
and, in the process, That pizza-making session in this | :36:58. | :37:01. | |
very room proved a turning point Their leaky defence became | :37:02. | :37:07. | |
the tightest in the league, but it also summed up the spirit | :37:08. | :37:13. | |
and the unity which their manager I don't think too many managers do | :37:14. | :37:17. | |
that, but not only that, he talks to all the players, | :37:18. | :37:25. | |
we are having fun with each other. But, at the same time, | :37:26. | :37:28. | |
we can switch around and be very focussed, be very concentrated | :37:29. | :37:32. | |
on what we need to do. But, for all their talent, | :37:33. | :37:35. | |
their timing has been key. This was a rare season when Chelsea, | :37:36. | :37:39. | |
Manchester City, Manchester United Leicester have also been | :37:40. | :37:42. | |
fortunate with injuries, using just 23 players - | :37:43. | :37:48. | |
fewer than anyone else. The underperforming big clubs have | :37:49. | :37:52. | |
helped Leicester and they have It wouldn't surprise me if, | :37:53. | :37:55. | |
next season, Leicester I think this is a one season wonder, | :37:56. | :37:59. | |
which will never happen again. Indeed, this is ultimately fantasy | :38:00. | :38:07. | |
football. The impossible dream that's | :38:08. | :38:10. | |
become a glorious reality. These are some of the most jubilant | :38:11. | :38:27. | |
scenes of celebration that the Premier League has ever witnessed. | :38:28. | :38:32. | |
It is not just the fans who are celebrating, Leicester City's squad | :38:33. | :38:38. | |
too, they gathered at the house of Jamie Vardy, and this is what it | :38:39. | :38:41. | |
meant to them when they knew that they were, each and every one of | :38:42. | :38:46. | |
them, Premier League Champions. Many of those players have never | :38:47. | :38:49. | |
experienced anything quite like that before. This is a victory, a triumph | :38:50. | :38:55. | |
that has resonated across the world of sport, not just here, but across | :38:56. | :38:58. | |
the globe. Leicester City's players can look forward to Champions League | :38:59. | :39:03. | |
football next season in Europe. It truly is a victory, the like of | :39:04. | :39:07. | |
which modern sport, where money rules, wasn't meant to produce | :39:08. | :39:10. | |
anymore, but it's a victory that has put the smile back on the face of | :39:11. | :39:12. | |
sport, too. Dan Roan, thank you. Scientists say a new study has given | :39:13. | :39:16. | |
them a near-perfect picture of the genetic mutations that | :39:17. | :39:19. | |
cause breast cancer. The study, in the journal | :39:20. | :39:22. | |
Nature, has been described It's hoped the analysis could help | :39:23. | :39:24. | |
unlock new ways of treating Here's our health | :39:25. | :39:29. | |
correspondent, Dominic Hughes. Enjoying a spot of Bank Holiday | :39:30. | :39:37. | |
Monday gardening, Vanessa Babbage But Vanessa has fought | :39:38. | :39:40. | |
a long, arduous battle After extensive surgery, | :39:41. | :39:44. | |
chemo and radiotherapy, she knows how devastating the disease | :39:45. | :39:49. | |
and its treatment can be. It's actually worse | :39:50. | :39:53. | |
than the cancer itself, because you are constantly ill, | :39:54. | :40:00. | |
so they do try to help you to minimise the side-effects by giving | :40:01. | :40:04. | |
you other drugs to help the nausea and things like that, so | :40:05. | :40:07. | |
the treatment is very, very harsh. Scanners like this one are used to | :40:08. | :40:15. | |
detect and monitor cancerous tumours once they've already developed, | :40:16. | :40:18. | |
but to understand the underlying causes of cancer, scientists have | :40:19. | :40:22. | |
had to go much deeper, to the level of DNA, | :40:23. | :40:25. | |
to try and work out what happens An international team of scientists, | :40:26. | :40:28. | |
led by the Sanger Institute in Cambridge, examined all 3 billion | :40:29. | :40:36. | |
letters in the genetic code of every What they've found has transformed | :40:37. | :40:40. | |
the understanding of what happens Getting a comprehensive collection | :40:41. | :40:47. | |
of information, including the mutations that are causing cancer, | :40:48. | :40:54. | |
tells us something about why that cancer is going wrong, | :40:55. | :40:59. | |
why that cell is turning into a cancerous cell, | :41:00. | :41:02. | |
and if you can understand that, you can understand the causes | :41:03. | :41:05. | |
of the cancer, and then you can This opens up the possibility | :41:06. | :41:08. | |
of much greater individualised treatments for cancer, | :41:09. | :41:14. | |
targeting each of the mutations. That's already happening with some | :41:15. | :41:17. | |
treatments, like the drug Herceptin, but experts believe this | :41:18. | :41:20. | |
could be a big step forward. What this study might | :41:21. | :41:24. | |
achieve is finding better treatments, matching | :41:25. | :41:26. | |
them better to women. By understanding the causes that | :41:27. | :41:28. | |
underline the biology of different types of the disease, | :41:29. | :41:33. | |
we might be able to match better treatments and offer them things | :41:34. | :41:36. | |
that are more likely to work for Back at home, Vanessa Babbage | :41:37. | :41:38. | |
is moving on with her life after cancer, and she is optimistic that | :41:39. | :41:44. | |
science is starting to make real headway in the fight | :41:45. | :41:46. | |
against the disease. It gives people hope, | :41:47. | :41:50. | |
because when people are affected by someone that they love | :41:51. | :41:54. | |
and they have breast cancer, they hope for a better future | :41:55. | :41:58. | |
for other women that are going to be This research has transformed | :41:59. | :42:01. | |
the understanding of cancer, and offers the tantalising prospect | :42:02. | :42:07. | |
it could prevent the disease In talks in Geneva to try | :42:08. | :42:10. | |
to save the ceasefire in Syria, the US Secretary of State, | :42:11. | :42:18. | |
John Kerry, said foreign powers were "getting closer | :42:19. | :42:21. | |
to a place of understanding." There's been a two-month pause | :42:22. | :42:24. | |
in hostilities in the country, but the last ten days have seen | :42:25. | :42:27. | |
an upsurge in violence. Mr Kerry said a renewed ceasefire | :42:28. | :42:30. | |
must include the besieged city of Aleppo, where more than 250 | :42:31. | :42:34. | |
civilians have died in recent days. This is the moment to try to make | :42:35. | :42:39. | |
certain that what everybody has signed up to is, | :42:40. | :42:42. | |
in fact, being delivered, being lived up to, without hypocrisy | :42:43. | :42:46. | |
and without variation. And that's what we're working | :42:47. | :42:52. | |
for and I'm hopeful that, over the course of the next day | :42:53. | :42:55. | |
or so, greater clarity will be available as to exactly | :42:56. | :43:00. | |
what progress has been made. A 36-year-old man has been shot | :43:01. | :43:07. | |
dead during an operation Officers were called to a property | :43:08. | :43:09. | |
near Maidstone last night as part of an inquiry | :43:10. | :43:14. | |
into the murder of Roy Blackman, who was beaten to death | :43:15. | :43:17. | |

and Crime Commissioners. PCCs were introduced in 2012, | :43:36. | :43:37. | |
with the aim of making police forces accountable and more | :43:38. | :43:39. | |
responsive to public needs. But voting then suggested widespread | :43:40. | :43:41. | |
apathy for the new role. Our home editor, Mark Easton, | :43:42. | :43:44. | |

to vote for their Police and Crime Commissioner in England | :43:47. | :43:52. | |
and Wales on Thursday. Here in Northamptonshire, | :43:53. | :43:56. | |
three candidates are up for The first thing I'll | :43:57. | :43:57. | |
do is reduce the cost of the office of Police | :43:58. | :44:06. | |

where police resources are The idea behind PCCs is the elected | :44:08. | :44:11. | |
