A recording has emerged of the panic and indecision among the crew on

board the South Korea ferry as it sank. Bodies are still

board the South Korea ferry as it retrieved from the wreck. Some

relatives of the missing have clashed with police, saying the

search is too slow. The crisis deepens inestern Ukraine,

as three are killed on a checkpoint, manned by pro-Russian activists A

businessman appointed by David Cameron to manage loans to local

councils has resigned after the revelation he had been declared

bankrupt. One is not amused - Prince George prefers real animals to the

cuddly variety on a visit to the zoo in Australia.

And it is a career first - a hat-trick of wins for Lewis

Hamilton, as he'ses to victory in the Chinese Grand Prix.

-- as he'ses to victory A very good evening to you. A

recording has emerged of the frantic final communications of the crew of

a ferry as it began to list and sink off the coast of South Korea. There

is the indecisiveness of the captain in issuing an evacuation order and

abandoning the ship. More bodies have been recovered. 250, mainly

teenage children, are still missing. More than 50 people have been

confirmed dead. A special service has been held at Ansan - the home

city of most of the has been held at Ansan - the home

teenager, from where we now report. Easter services are not meant to be

sombre memorials, but this one was. Ansan is a town with little hope and

too many missing children. How do grandparents celebrate with

teenagers gone? Some of those missing on board the ferry were

regulars at churches here. This Sunday school teacher read a

letter to them. TRANSLATION: Beloved students,

please hang on a little longer. I cannot let you go.

Only parents were allowed inside the school today, but on the street

outside, students from other school today, but on the street

schools in Seoul said prayers. Others left flowers. And Easter

eggs. The messages read, "Stay alive. Please hold on." This is now,

in all but name, a community in mourning. A third of the students

who are on board the ferry came from this little community, just

who are on board the ferry came from the school. Local residents say this

who are on board the ferry came from is a community

who are on board the ferry came from every building in this district had

two or three children missing. In Jindo hope is giving way to

anger. Families on a protest march to ask the President for help were

stopped before they reached the mainland as another boat ferried

bodies to the shore. TRANSLATION: Our children are in the

water. I am just asking you to get their

bodies back before they decay. They are just leaving them there.

New evidence emerged today of the ferry's final moments. The

conversation with South Korea's shipping control.

If this ferry evacuate, will the passengers be rescued immediately,

ask the crew. The controller replies that the captain must make that

decision and the patrol boats are ten minutes away. In the South Korea

capital, Seoul, tonight, a ten minutes away. In the South Korea

candle-lit vigil. A sharing of grief and anger too. There'll be many more

candle-lit vigil. A sharing of grief nights like this here now and a

darkness that no candle can dispel. Russia has blamed right wing

Ukrainian nationalists after three people were killed in a gun battle

at a pro Russian checkpoint in East Eastern Ukraine. It happened near

Sloviansk, where the Russian mayor has asked Vladimir Putin to send in

Sloviansk, where the Russian mayor peacekeeping troops. The Government

in Kiev is investigating what happened.

On a country road, just outside Sloviansk, the aftermath of what

pro-Russian activists claimed was an attack on one of their check points

by men in four Jeeps. This man, who didn't want to show his

TRANSLATION: One of our guys went up and said, can we check your boot?

Straight away, he received a bullet in the head. Then people jumped out

of the Jeeps and started firing A young man who ran away was hit by a

sniper. Another young man who ran away was hit by a

was also killed by a sniper. It was activists claim they were attacked

by the far right anti-Russian group Right Sector. The evidence they

by the far right anti-Russian group presented - a business card, seemed

dubrous. Whatever the exact truth is about what happened here last night,

it is a worrying development - possibly the first deaths in Eastern

Ukraine's most militant town. At the local hospital staff told us they

Ukraine's most militant town. At the had received at least one dead body.

Ukraine's most militant town. At the The Ukrainian Government said three

people had died. Most worryingly, the self-appointed Mayor of the

people had died. Most worryingly, made this appeal to Russia.

TRANSLATION: I want to address the Russian Government and to ask you

personally, Vladimir Putin for your help. If you cannot send

peacekeeping troops, help us with food, with weapons, anything you

peacekeeping troops, help us with can. From this town, already full of

weapons and anger, it was an invitation to President Putin to

send in the troops. A businessman reappointed by David

Cameron as chairman of a group handing out billions of pounds in

loans to local councils has resigned after the revelation he had been

declared bankrupt. Tony Caplin after the revelation he had been

head of the Public Works Loan Board, but was made insolvent in 2012.

Here is our political correspondent. Until now, Tony Caplin's many public

roles have been behind the scenes T businessman has sat on a number of

bodies, such as hospital trusts and the Medical Research Council. Last

year, he was made chairman of the Public Works Loan Board, the body

which manages billions of loans to local councils. He was given the job

by David Cameron. Now it has emerged he had previously been declared

bankrupt. The idea that the Prime Minister appointed a man to run the

dressry's lending operations -- the Treasury's lending operations, who

allegedly owed hundreds of thousands of pounds to the Treasury, because

he was bankrupt, it beggars belief. Tony Caplin was first appointed to

the Public Works Loan Board under a Labour Government in 2003. He was

reappointed by the Prime Minister. Sources say

reappointed by the Prime Minister. fact he had been made bankrupt and

should have. And when this was pointed out to

him, he resigned. In 2005, Mr Caplin worked for the

Conservatives, on this unofficial party website, he is praised. A

spokesman said he now has no role in the party. This has called for more

calls for transparency over public appointments by all political

calls for transparency over public groups. The appearance of wrong

doing can be damaging as the wrong groups. The appearance of wrong

doing itself. We want to have a groups. The appearance of wrong

clear, honest and transparent political system. If there are

important quangos spending large sums of public money we want to know

they are properly run and the rules are adhered to.

His bankruptcy has now been discharged T wider repercussions

might last longer. The leaders of the Anglican Church

and the Roman Catholic Church in England and Wales have both used

their traditional Easter messages to highlight the problems of the poor.

The Archbishop of Canterbury said even with the economy improving

The Archbishop of Canterbury said there were many families living in

fear of debt. Pomp and ceremony in Canterbury

Cathedral, celebrating the resurrection of Jesus 2,000 years

ago. The Archbishop of Canterbury talked about the continuing power of

that event, in giving Christians around the world the hope they

needed to endure, what he called, the most devastating of conditions.

He said there was sorrow and hardship in Britain too.

In this country, even as the economy improves, there is weeping and

broken families, in people ashamed to seek help from food banks, or

frightened by debt. As Roman Catholics celebrated the

light they believe Easter brings, they too were reminded of the

light they believe Easter brings, darkness endured by the destitute in

Britain. Behold him that takes away... . At

Westminster Cathedral last night, the leader of the Roman Catholic

Church in England and Wales, Cardinal Vincent Nichols, recalled

how Jesus sought out such people, so they could be fed. In recent months,

church leaders have used every opportunity to keep the spotlight on

the poor and dispute. Vincent opportunity to keep the spotlight on

Nichols said they were Jesus's priority and should remain one

today. We keep in mind all who feel excluded from the fruit of the earth

- the homeless and the poor. Those in our midst who are destitute and

the vast numbers of hungry in our midst who are destitute and

the world. In Rome, tens of thousands of pilgrims greeted Pope

Francis. The Pope blessed them and prayed for

peace in Ukraine and Syria. Then he too urged help for the needy close

to home - the sick and outcast and those crushed by life's troubles.

In Syria, President Bashar al-Assad has marked Easter sun with a rare

public appearance, visiting a village recaptured by his forces.

Syrian state television showed pictures of his visit to Ma'loula,

where he inspected damage inflicted in recent fighting. The Army's

retaking of the village is seen significant for the President.

The Duke and Duchess of Cambridge have continued their tour of

Australia with a trip to the zoo with Prince George. While he enjoyed

the real-life animals, he was less than impressed when presented with a

cuddly toy. A visit to the zoo. A child's

delight. For George, two days short of being nine months old now, it was

an enclosure at the zoo in of being nine months old now, it was

named in his honour and a small animal - a bilby, also called George

to get to know. One thing was apparent, George, the Prince, is

to get to know. One thing was nearly standing by himself now and

not far short of walking. Mum offered a steadying hand and a

helpful wipe of the chin in case offered a steadying hand and a

any dribbling as George started to offered a steadying hand and a

get the hang of posing for the cameras.

Dad took over and George began a serious attempt to get closer to

Dad took over and George began a bilby. A ground-level approach

didn't work, neither did bilby. A ground-level approach

the top. Now it was time for bilby-spotting to stop. Dad seemed

pleased. So did mum. Before they left bilby-land, George performed

his first official unvealing with gusto and was awarded with a toy

bilby, which he promptly threw away. That lesson in royal protocol will

have to come later. They toured the zoo. They watched a display

have to come later. They toured the Australian bird life and posed with

have to come later. They toured the a koala. The pictures which will be

remembered are George's. And those images of baby George will

be of very particular interest to one person, George's great

grandmother, the Queen, whose 88th birthday it is tomorrow.

To mark the Queen's birthday a new portrait by David Bailey has been

unveiled. The black and white image of a smiling monarch was taken at

Buckingham Palace in March. The image is being used as part of a

Buckingham Palace in March. The campaign to promote Britain abroad.

Shanghai, leading from team. He had the perfect race in

34th pole position in qualifying, all eyes were on Lewis Hamilton in

Shanghai. From the off he left the all eyes were on Lewis Hamilton in

field in his wake. Further back, former Ferrari team-mates

Massachusetts and Alonso rekindled an old rivalry, bumping wheels

before the first corner. Red Bull were struggling. The once unbeaten

Sebastian Vettel was once again overshadowed by his team-mate. At

one stage the four-time world champion refused a team order to let

ribbing ribbing through. -- Riccardo through. Tough luck.

Rosberg stormed past Alonso to take second, maintaining his narrow

championship lead. This was Hamilton's day.
