:04:21. > :04:31.Undoubtably, there are some Labour MPs who were never happy about
:04:32. > :04:35.Jeremy Corbyn's leadership of the party, and there are some who
:04:36. > :04:38.believe he was reluctant to tackle this issue because of his
:04:39. > :04:42.long-standing support for the Palestinian cause. But this now goes
:04:43. > :04:46.much wider than that. You heard the Israeli ambassador that. This is a
:04:47. > :04:50.serious issue for the Labour Party, and if the leadership do try to
:04:51. > :04:53.sweep it aside and blame it on some right-wing faction in the party,
:04:54. > :05:14.that will just make matters worse for Jeremy

:05:21. > :05:22.of those important elections in Scotland, Wales, London and local

:05:25. > :05:26.about their prospects. If their worst fears are realised, if Labour
:05:27. > :05:28.does suffer significant losses, it will be very difficult for the
:05:29. > :05:31.leadership to continue to argue that it is simply a bunch of disgruntled

:05:34. > :05:35.reports that the Culture Secretary John Whittingdale wants to stop
:05:36. > :05:37.the BBC scheduling its top-rated programmes,
:05:38. > :05:38.including Strictly Come Dancing, at the same time as popular
:05:39. > :05:41.shows on rival networks. Our Media Correspondent David
:05:42. > :05:52.Sillito has more. It is TV's big night, Saturday
:05:53. > :05:58.evening, the traditional prime-time entertainment battle ground.
:05:59. > :06:02.Exterminate! Doctor Who, Strictly Come Dancing, X Factor. But why does
:06:03. > :06:08.the end of Strictly often overlap with the beginning of X Factor? Why
:06:09. > :06:13.couldn't the big shows be separated? Also, why are the BBC's big dramas
:06:14. > :06:18.often scheduled directly against ITV's. It appears the Government has
:06:19. > :06:23.had enough of this. The headlines today proclaim that the BBC was
:06:24. > :06:27.about to be told this has to stop. So what can anyone do about these
:06:28. > :06:30.clashes? Well, the Government has been concerned about the BBC's
:06:31. > :06:35.impact on its commercial rivals for some time now, and it's understood
:06:36. > :06:38.that they are looking at the possibility that whoever ends up
:06:39. > :06:42.regulating the BBC will have some power to either adjudicates or
:06:43. > :06:48.intervene on the topic. The BBC says it is deeply concerned. Labour said
:06:49. > :06:51.it was meddling. But in a statement, the department of culture says the
:06:52. > :06:54.Government is not going to be interfering in the schedules. But
:06:55. > :06:58.this doesn't mean it's not concerned about the corporation's impact on
:06:59. > :07:03.its competitors. In terms of scheduling and Saturday nights,
:07:04. > :07:07.there will be nothing about that. There will probably be something
:07:08. > :07:11.about the BBC minding its Ps and Qs, being a bit more careful than it
:07:12. > :07:14.sometimes has been about its impact on commercial competitors. Questions
:07:15. > :07:18.have also been raised about both ITV and the BBC broadcasting their main
:07:19. > :07:22.evening bulletins at the same time at ten o'clock. But do clashes over
:07:23. > :07:28.the news or Strictly matter as much as they once did? Do you care when
:07:29. > :07:35.they overlap? I do, actually. It is frustrating. Obviously, prime-time
:07:36. > :07:40.viewing is competitive for everybody. If they clash in the
:07:41. > :07:44.schedules, does that bother you? Know, because I can do it on catch
:07:45. > :07:48.up. And there is also the government's own recent report on
:07:49. > :07:51.the topic, which said the impact on ITV from clashes in entertainment

:08:25. > :08:29.involved a coastguard helicopter, two lifeboats and teams going along

:08:38. > :08:41.haven't revealed how old she was exactly and she hasn't been named
:08:42. > :08:45.this evening, but we don't know that there has been an arrest and police
:08:46. > :08:48.have launched a murder investigation. Officers say the key

:16:33. > :16:37.tantalising reach. There are no words to describe it, it's just
:16:38. > :16:43.amazing. I have not slept all night and I just can't cope any longer. It

:17:00. > :17:04.swept the hosts ahead. Now for a test of Leicester's character. At
:17:05. > :17:08.first, they seemed swamped. Only Kasper Schmeichel denied United a
:17:09. > :17:13.second. But suddenly, the jitters turned to joy. Leicester captain Wes
:17:14. > :17:17.Morgan with a priceless equaliser, and the fans inside Old Trafford
:17:18. > :17:22.were not the only ones delighted. Hundreds celebrated at the club's
:17:23. > :17:26.stadium back in Leicester, as did plenty more in Bangkok, home of the
:17:27. > :17:31.team's Thai owners. This is very much a global ferry tale. After the
:17:32. > :17:34.break, Leicester new one more go would complete it, but for once, it
:17:35. > :17:38.didn't go according to the script. Annie Drinkwater was sent off and
:17:39. > :17:42.they had to settle for a point. No title yet, then, but they are edging
:17:43. > :17:49.ever closer. I am always satisfied when I see my players play as well
:17:50. > :17:56.as today. The result is a consequence. They show their
:17:57. > :18:00.character, their heart, that's all, and after you can accept the result.
:18:01. > :18:05.Almost, then, but not quite. Leicester will win the title if
:18:06. > :18:09.Tottenham face to -- if Tottenham fail to beat Chelsea tomorrow, but
