:00:51. > :00:55.Simpson-Kent in the southern an a in city. Scotland Yard would only say

:00:56. > :01:00.that they had been made aware of an arrest but couldn't discuss the

:01:01. > :01:03.matter further. The bodies of Sian Blake and her two children were

:01:04. > :01:07.found in the back garden of their home in south-east London after

:01:08. > :01:11.police never dogs were called in. It was three weeks after they'd been

:01:12. > :01:15.reported missing full stop police said all three had died as a result

:01:16. > :01:19.of head and neck injuries. 43-year-old Sian Blake had appeared

:01:39. > :01:46.Simpson Kent to come back from Ghana. -- earlier this week, her

:01:47. > :01:49.family. Scotland Yard has referred its inquiry to the Independent

:01:50. > :01:54.Police Complaints Commission over questions as to why officers took so

:01:55. > :01:57.long to find the bodies. Police spoke to Mr Simpson Kent at the

:01:58. > :01:58.family home three days after they were reported missing but no further

:01:59. > :02:03.action was taken. The body which regulates the City

:02:04. > :02:06.has defended abandoning an inquiry into the culture and behaviour

:02:07. > :02:09.of staff in the banking sector. Tracey McDermott, who's acting head

:02:10. > :02:13.of the Financial Conduct Authority, rejected suggestions that she'd

:02:14. > :02:16.gone soft on the banks, and insisted that tough

:02:17. > :02:19.penalties remained in place. Critics have accused

:02:20. > :02:22.the Government of ordering the FCA Our Business Correspondent

:02:23. > :02:26.Joe Lynam reports. Many people blamed

:02:27. > :02:35.the banks and their behaviour for the collapse

:02:36. > :02:37.in markets and the deepest recession The regulator, the FCA,

:02:38. > :02:41.was investigating whether a certain culture existed within banks

:02:42. > :02:44.which enabled scandals such as Libor But that probe was suddenly

:02:45. > :02:52.dropped on New Year's Eve and today the FCA's acting boss

:02:53. > :02:54.rejected claims it had We are not going soft

:02:55. > :02:59.on the banks, we are not being told what to do

:03:00. > :03:01.by the government. We have objectives which are set

:03:02. > :03:04.for us by Parliament in statute and we are determined

:03:05. > :03:06.to deliver on those. If you look at what we've

:03:07. > :03:09.been doing over the past six months whilst I've been

:03:10. > :03:11.in the role as Chief Executive, you will see that we

:03:12. > :03:13.have continued to take action against the industry,

:03:14. > :03:16.both in terms of penalties on firms and in terms of penalties

:03:17. > :03:22.on individuals. But some members on the all-party

:03:23. > :03:24.Treasury Select Committee think the government leaned

:03:25. > :03:25.on the regulator The FCA hasn't reached

:03:26. > :03:30.its own conclusions, it's been told what to do,

:03:31. > :03:36.it's been told by the Treasury. The former Business

:03:37. > :03:38.Secretary, Vince Cable, thinks without a strong regulator,

:03:39. > :03:41.which he says the FCA had, We know from historical

:03:42. > :03:49.experience that, of course, if the banks

:03:50. > :03:51.are simply left alone, There's a certain amount of evidence

:03:52. > :03:57.that a lot of bad things are still happening, that is why

:03:58. > :04:00.you need tough regulators. The government flatly rejects any

:04:01. > :04:03.suggestion that it leaned on the FCA Far from going soft,

:04:04. > :04:08.the government says it has introduced a raft of measures

:04:09. > :04:12.to make the banks far safer and far less willing to take risks

:04:13. > :04:14.with their money and that The government is acutely aware

:04:15. > :04:19.of how important banking Finding a happy medium

:04:20. > :04:24.between allowing banks to operate and preventing abuse

:04:25. > :04:30.will be a tough one. Egypt's tourism minister has

:04:31. > :04:35.insisted that safety is his country's top priority

:04:36. > :04:38.after three tourists were injured by knife attackers at a hotel

:04:39. > :04:41.in the Red Sea resort One of the survivors has

:04:42. > :04:44.told the BBC he thought he was going to die after suffering

:04:45. > :04:46.serious neck injuries. Security forces shot and killed

:04:47. > :04:49.one of the attackers Our correspondent James Reynolds

:04:50. > :04:52.reports from Hurghada. His report does contain some details

:04:53. > :04:55.of the attack which you These are the moments

:04:56. > :05:02.after the attack at the Bella Vista Two men, each carrying knives,

:05:03. > :05:07.stormed into the hotel restaurant and began attacking

:05:08. > :05:15.tourists at their tables. 27-year-old Sammy Olufsen,

:05:16. > :05:20.from Gothenberg, told me he was stabbed in front

:05:21. > :05:29.of his father, Jan Erik. All of a sudden I can hear a guy

:05:30. > :05:33.grabbing me and I see an arm coming And I think he was aiming

:05:34. > :05:42.for my heart, but I put my hands up. So the thought was,

:05:43. > :05:56.go down, go down. The attackers made it

:05:57. > :06:04.into the hotel lobby. Minutes later, security forces

:06:05. > :06:06.arrived and shot them. This is the black Isis flag

:06:07. > :06:09.the assailants had with them. Inside the restaurant,

:06:10. > :06:13.Sammy was left lying on the ground. I'm bleeding in the neck and I'm

:06:14. > :06:20.feeling like I'm going to bleed out. Maybe you moved on from me

:06:21. > :06:23.because it's bleeding so much, To the relief of his father,

:06:24. > :06:28.a passer-by drove him to hospital and Sammy Olufsen is almost well

:06:29. > :06:45.enough to go back to Sweden. But tonight Egypt will worry what

:06:46. > :06:49.happened here. Others from happening and this country is still recovering

:06:50. > :06:52.from that suspected bombing of an airliner Sinai a couple of months

:06:53. > :06:56.ago that killed more than 200 people. This country is learning

:06:57. > :07:00.it's hard to fight attacks and welcome visitors at the same time.

:07:01. > :07:03.The German Chancellor Angela Merkel has said migrants who commit crimes

:07:04. > :07:09.It follows a series of robberies and sex attacks in Cologne

:07:10. > :07:12.on New Year's Eve by men said to be of North African

:07:13. > :07:17.Police in the city have used water cannon and tear gas

:07:18. > :07:19.against supporters of the far-right Pegida movement, who've been

:07:20. > :07:22.protesting about the attacks, and about the country's open-door

:07:23. > :07:34.Let's return to news that police in Ghana have arrested the boyfriend of

:07:35. > :07:38.former Eastenders actress Sian Blake, whose body was found that

:07:39. > :07:43.there family home in Kent on Tuesday along with those of their two Young

:07:44. > :07:47.sons. Alastair Leithead is in Ghana, where the arrest happened just a

:07:48. > :07:54.short time ago. A very dramatic afternoon there? Very much so, this

:07:55. > :07:58.is the exact spot right on the coast, this is called the Butre

:07:59. > :08:04.hills, it's a small tourist, backpacker town along this coast in

:08:05. > :08:08.Ghana. He was, Arthur Simpson-Kent, was in these rocks when police came

:08:09. > :08:11.down here armed, he was apparently cutting into a coconut when they

:08:12. > :08:15.surprised him. They were heavily armed and he immediately

:08:16. > :08:19.surrendered. They found a knife on him but he didn't threaten them but

:08:20. > :08:23.he went with the police back up the hills round the corner. This is a

:08:24. > :08:27.promote spot. He'd been seen in this area for some days, it was only when

:08:28. > :08:30.the photograph came out and the people here started realising that

:08:31. > :08:34.police suspected and were looking for in connection with those murders

:08:35. > :08:40.in the UK was actually here. The alarm was raised and we spoke to the

:08:41. > :08:43.assembly men here. He called the police in, they arrested him, they

:08:44. > :08:46.took him from here to the next biggest town where the police

:08:47. > :08:51.station is, and then to Accra under the watchful eye of Interpol.

:08:52. > :08:54.Football - and the 3rd round of the FA Cup is the stage

:08:55. > :08:56.when the big sides enter the competition.

:08:57. > :08:58.Arsenal sailed through comfortably - but others didn't have it

:08:59. > :09:03.all their own way - as Adam Wild reports.

:09:04. > :09:10.The thing about cup upset is you can never quite tell where they are

:09:11. > :09:12.coming from. Still, there are giants which appear more vulnerable than

:09:13. > :09:18.others. Aston Villa floundering in the Premier League did take the lead

:09:19. > :09:22.against Wycombe Wanderers. It lasted until half-time. Little longer. The

:09:23. > :09:27.team 54 places below them were handed a penalty for this foul, an

:09:28. > :09:31.opportunity Joe Jacobson wasn't about to let pass by. A replay now

:09:32. > :09:37.follows, the upset not quite complete. Wycombe can be excused for

:09:38. > :09:43.celebrating as if it was. For those bigger teams, the third round is so

:09:44. > :09:45.often dangerous ground. At Eastleigh four time cup winners Bolton

:09:46. > :09:51.Wanderers found just that, how much is the surface contributed to this

:09:52. > :09:56.own goal isn't entirely clear, but with the non-league side ahead and

:09:57. > :10:00.spectators on the pitch, who perhaps saved them from falling further

:10:01. > :10:04.behind. Eastleigh were denied by Darren Pratley's late goal, not the

:10:05. > :10:11.dream ending, still, not the end of the dream. More through the evening
