North Korea is condemned after it launches a long-range rocket

in defiance of international sanctions.

The Communist state calls it a satellite launch -

but critics say this was a missile test, just weeks

As junior doctors in England prepare for another strike over

a new contract, there is no sign of compromise with the Government.

The totally irresponsible way the BMA has behaved in refusing

to sit down and talk about how we can improve patient care.

I wouldn't trust him to sell me a used car,

let alone hold my future and, more, importantly my patients' future

There's been international condemnation of North Korea after it

The secretive Communist state claims the launch was of a satellite,

but last month it said it had tested a hydrogen bomb and many countries

believe it's developing a long-range nuclear missile programme.

Our Asia correspondent, John Sudworth, sent this report.

This morning, over the Korean peninsula, the rocket's engines

could be seen running into the clear, blue sky.

It is reported to have successfully placed a satellite into orbit.

The accelerated development of North Korea's nuclear

and ballistic missile programme poses a serious

threat to international peace and security.

To the peace and security not just of neighbours but the entire world.

Tonight, North Korea's only ally, China, has been celebrating its

lunar New Year festival in traditional explosive style. But

diplomatically, it is treading very softly indeed. The statement from

the Foreign Ministry in Beijing was not one of condemnation but rather

an appeal for constraint on all sides. China fears a nuclear armed

North Korea as much as anyone but it is also deeply nervous that, if

anything, it might push its isolated, impoverished neighbour to

economic collapse. The launch today takes not career one more step

towards its nuclear ambitions. John Sudworth, BBC news, Beijing.

Health Secretary Jeremy Hunt has accused the doctors' union,

the BMA, of totally irresponsible behaviour in its handling

of the dispute over a new contract for junior doctors in England.

Talks over changes to weekend working have broken down

and a 24-hour strike involving everything except emergency care

Our political correspondent Eleanor Garnier reports.

In full voice this weekend, but despite months of talks,

junior doctors are still out of tune with

The disputes about pay and working hours following

government plans to change some NHS contracts in England.

Now, the Health Secretary has accused the doctors' union,

the BMA, of being iresponsible and misleading.

One of the reasons for that anger, and

there is anger, is because they were told by the BMA that their pay

They were told that they were going to be

They aren't, we are actually bringing

And if you are told by your union that the Health Secretary wants

to do these awful things, of course you will

But junior doctors on the front line said it was nonsense

to suggest their union was misinforming them.

There is not a grassroots doctor in the country who believes

the words the Health Secretary says any more and that is because we have

heard him spin and manipulate and distort the statistics

and the facts time and again for his own political agenda.

Last month, doctors walked out on a 24-hour strike.

Planned industrial action two weeks ago was called off

as talks continued, but with no agreement,

this Wednesday's strike in England is still on.

It believes its plans for a seven-day

week NHS are popular with the public but both sides are really digging

The sticking point - do you pay doctors more for working

on a Saturday, and if you do, at what point should those payments

Hanging over these negotiations, the threat that the Health Secretary

will push ahead and impose the new contracts.

There have been some concessions made by Government in the last few

But if we cannot get a negotiated solution to this new junior doctor

contract, I have said that he should not impose a new contract

This row has come down to a dispute over working

hours, but the fear is, without agreement, there could be

Dozens of local Conservative associations have accused

David Cameron of a lack of respect for grassroots party members,

after he told MPs to disregard their views on the EU Referendum.

In a letter to the Sunday Telegraph, the leaders of more than 40

Conservative associations said it was deeply regrettable

that the Prime Minister had dismissed their views.

A review into Scotland Yard's handling of a rape allegation

against the late Lord Brittan has concluded that the police

were "fully justified" in carrying out an investigation.

However, it identified a number of weaknesses in the way police

acted, including a failure to record an interview with the peer.

A 20-year-old man has emerged alive from the rubble of an apartment

building in Taiwan, two days after it collapsed in an earthquake.

At least 26 people are thought to have died and hopes are fading

for more than 100 who are still missing.

From Tainan in South Taiwan, Rupert Wingfield-Hayes

Deep inside the collapsed building, this rescue crew is getting close.

Hold on, they shout. We coming through. A few minutes later, a

young man is lifted clear from the building and lowered gently to the

ground. His condition is serious but he is still alive. This is the only

bright spot in what has other being a grim day. This afternoon are

rescue were urged holding a small bundle. A six-month-old baby girl.

30 hours in the rubble had been too much. Soon after, she died. And

still dozens more await news in growing despair. This woman's son is

somewhere under the rubble. He is such a good boy, she says. He always

thinks of me, he worries about me being lonely. The despair is mixed

with anger. Why did this building come-down and those around it are

unscathed? People are asking why this building came down and the

others seem to have stirred up without any problem and there are

clear signs of what might be wrong with this building. The collapse has

exposed these blue and white cooking oil cans that appear to have been

used as filler inside some of the concrete beams. Relatives as Pool

two tonight say they want a full investigation into why this building

came down and they want someone to be held responsible. Rupert

In the Six Nations, Ireland faced Wales today.

Karthi Gnanasegaram has news of that and the rest of the sport.

Defending champions Ireland are aiming for a record third Six

Nations title in a row, but they were held to a 16-all draw by Wales.

There was a thrilling end to the match after Ireland let their 13

point lead slip and Wales fought to the final whistle. Our

correspondent, Andy Swiss, reports. Andre Gray skies, a wall of green.

Dublin in deafening voice is arrogant set out in search of

history. No team has ever won the hat-trick of Six Nations but they

began with the confidence of champions, thanks to Jonny Sexton

and a burst from Conor Murray. It is over! Ireland 13-0 up after one

hour, what a start. Game over? Wales, especially Toby Faletau,

muscled back. He comes away with it! And he scores. Not pretty but highly

effective and after the break, Rhys Priestland levelled things, 13 all,

who would hold their nerve? No one could hold anything for the well as

both sides spilled opportunities and for all the attacking intent on

show, defences held firm. The Priestland penalty edged Wales ahead

but Sexton kept his cool and this time the deadlock was unbreakable.

For both sides, frustration, mingling with relief. We put some

pressure on and did not get those points and they built their way into

the lead so in the end, you are reasonably believed to have escaped

with the draw. I am glad we crawled back into the game and got that

straw. To come back and the draw, that is not bad. Rugby at its

tightest and most tense. The day with plenty of drama but,

ultimately, no winner. Arsenal kept their Premier League

title winning hopes alive with a 2-nil win over Bournemouth to move

back up to third in the table. Goals from Mesut Ozil and Alex

Oxlade-Chamberlain gave Arsenal their first League win in five games

and moves them level on points with their North London rivals,

Tottenham, who are in second place. And in the evening game Manchester

United's Jesse Lingard scored a superb goal to bring their game

against Chelsea to life in the 60th minute. But Diego Costa scored in

the first of six minutes of Added time to give Chelsea a late

equaliser. In the fifth round of the Scottish Cup, Hibernian came back

from 2-nil down against Hearts to force a replay. Hearts scored both

of their goals in the first half but a Jason Cummings header with 12

minutes of the match remaining brought Hibs back in to it. Before

an injury time Equaliser from Paul Hanlon gave them the replay which is

on February 16th. While Celtic beat Lowland League side East Kilbride

2-nil to reach the last eight. England's Danny Willett is aiming

for an Olympic and Ryder Cup place this year after winning golf's Dubai

Desert Classic Willett needed to make this 15 foot birdie putt on the

18th hole to win - and he did. That gave him a final round of 69 and a

one shot win over fellow Englishman Andy Sullivan. Defending champion

and world number two, Rory McIlroy finished four strokes behind Willett

in joint sixth place. And England's women cricketers have won the first

game of their One Day series against South Africa. Thank you.

As far as big sporting events go, they don't get any more commercially

valuable than America's Super Bowl - and the biggest night of the year

This time there's a special anniversary to celebrate.
