The DJs who made a prior call to the hospital treating the Duchess | :00:13. | :00:16. | |
of Cambridge so they are heartbroken by the death of a nurse | :00:16. | :00:22. | |
they spoke to. I am very sorry and saddened for the family and I can't | :00:22. | :00:30. | |
imagine what they are going through. Gutted, shattered, heartbroken. | :00:30. | :00:35. | |

phone call to the hospital treating the Duchess of Cambridge speak | :01:25. | :01:35. | |
:01:35. | :01:35. | ||
about the death of a nurse caught up in the prank. The radio hosts | :01:35. | :01:38. | |
expressed their regrets and said they never foresaw the outcome of | :01:38. | :01:47. | |
their call. Mel Greig, who impersonated the Queen, was asked | :01:47. | :01:51. | |
about the moment she found out one of the nurses had taken her own | :01:51. | :01:56. | |
life. A Unfortunately I remember that moment very well because I | :01:56. | :02:01. | |
have not stopped thinking about it since I happened. My first question | :02:01. | :02:11. | |
:02:11. | :02:14. | ||
Winnie found out she was? I am very saddened for the family and I can't | :02:14. | :02:22. | |
imagine what they are going through. What about you, Michael? Gutted, | :02:22. | :02:27. | |
you know. Shattered, heartbroken. For does it even feel real to you, | :02:28. | :02:34. | |
what's happened? We are still trying to get our heads around | :02:34. | :02:39. | |
everything, trying to make sense of the situation. If it doesn't seem | :02:39. | :02:44. | |
real because you could not foresee something like that happening from | :02:44. | :02:49. | |
a prank call. It was never meant to go that far. It was meant to be a | :02:49. | :02:53. | |
silly little prank that so many people have done before. This | :02:53. | :02:58. | |
wasn't meant to happen. hindsight, would you do something | :02:59. | :03:07. | |
like that again? I don't... I don't think that anyone could have | :03:07. | :03:12. | |
predicted what could have happened. It was just a tragic set of | :03:12. | :03:16. | |
circumstances that I don't think anyone could have thought that we | :03:16. | :03:23. | |
would be here. Who came up with the idea of the thank? It was just in a | :03:23. | :03:29. | |
team meeting before the show. wasn't either of you individually? | :03:29. | :03:37. | |
If ever thing is done as a team. Did you have legal advice or senior | :03:37. | :03:43. | |
producers nursing you through this? The call, to begin with, wasn't | :03:43. | :03:50. | |
about speaking to Kate. It wasn't about trying to get the scoop or | :03:50. | :03:56. | |
anything. The call was just... We assumed they would hang up and that | :03:56. | :04:02. | |
was that. When that didn't happen, and let's be honest you thought it | :04:02. | :04:07. | |
was a coup at the time - were you shocked that you got that far to | :04:07. | :04:14. | |
talk to the nurse? Absolutely, and the accents were terrible. It must | :04:14. | :04:20. | |
designed to be stupid. We were never meant to get that far. The | :04:20. | :04:23. | |
little corgis barking in the background, we wanted it to be a | :04:23. | :04:30. | |
joke. The joke was on us, not anyone else. We were not trying to | :04:30. | :04:36. | |
fool someone. We assumed with the voices we put on, we were going to | :04:36. | :04:45. | |
get told off and that was the joke. Do you get any training as to what | :04:45. | :04:51. | |
you are allowed to put on the radio? Have you been taught that | :04:51. | :04:56. | |
during your ten-year here? If this phone call is the same as with any | :04:56. | :05:03. | |
pre-recorded segments that goes on the radio. There are processes in | :05:03. | :05:08. | |
place. Oh role... Have you been taught that in a legal class? | :05:08. | :05:15. | |
are people who make those decisions for us. So did somebody listen to | :05:15. | :05:22. | |
that call? Be won through the same process, everything gets recorded | :05:22. | :05:26. | |
and passed on to the appropriate people and we are told whether it | :05:26. | :05:32. | |
is OK to play. Can you talk about the time spent from when you did | :05:32. | :05:39. | |
that call to going on the radio - was it one hour? Two hours? We go | :05:39. | :05:45. | |
about our work and keep going. in other things organised. But you | :05:45. | :05:50. | |
were pretty giddy with what you have pulled off? Yes, we didn't | :05:50. | :05:56. | |
expected to work, we didn't see it actually working. It wasn't to get | :05:56. | :06:02. | |
something that nobody else had. book you are where you were trying | :06:02. | :06:09. | |
to get a medical condition, and a medical condition for the Royal? | :06:09. | :06:16. | |
but we didn't want that. We wanted them to hang up, and play the 22nd | :06:16. | :06:21. | |
segment on the radio. The number of people being killed in the | :06:22. | :06:27. | |
Philippines is continuing to rise following Typhoon Bopha. Although | :06:27. | :06:32. | |
650 people are known to have died and many more are missing, | :06:32. | :06:42. | |
:06:42. | :06:44. | ||
President Aquino has declared a national calamity. The BBC's Kate | :06:44. | :06:47. | |
McGeown brings us the latest from New Bataan in the province of | :06:47. | :06:52. | |
Mindanao. If this is one of the worst-affected regions after the | :06:52. | :06:56. | |
typhoon, and basically mud and boulders came crashing down into | :06:56. | :07:02. | |
this area. In some cases whole villages have been obliterated. | :07:02. | :07:08. | |
Very difficult to imagine they were even there. Now a week after the | :07:08. | :07:11. | |
typhoon, you can still smell that sadly all the bodies have not been | :07:11. | :07:16. | |
found yet. In the evacuation centres I found people looking | :07:16. | :07:21. | |
through the lists of the missing, still hundreds in this area alone. | :07:21. | :07:29. | |
One by one, bodies are being brought in and most are sadly dead. | :07:29. | :07:36. | |
In Egypt, President Mohamed Morsi has given the army powers of arrest | :07:36. | :07:39. | |
ahead of the referendum planned for this weekend. The announcement | :07:39. | :07:43. | |
comes one day before mast protest planned by the opposition against | :07:43. | :07:49. | |
the vote. Mohamed Morsi has ordered the security to protect state | :07:49. | :07:52. | |
institutions ahead of the referendum due to take place on | :07:52. | :07:57. | |
Saturday, and ordered the army to co-operate with the police until | :07:57. | :08:01. | |
results are announced. It has been nearly two years since | :08:01. | :08:06. | |
the Arab uprising began in Tunisia before it's worked across countries | :08:06. | :08:09. | |
and the Middle East. Our correspondent has been back to | :08:09. | :08:14. | |
Tunisia to see how life has changed, and she has gained rare access to | :08:14. | :08:19. | |
one of the grand palaces of the deposed President's. | :08:20. | :08:25. | |
The stunning view of the Mediterranean. You need money or | :08:25. | :08:30. | |
power to afford to live here. President Ben Ali of Tunisia have | :08:30. | :08:35. | |
both. We are going to show you at least one of the flaws in the grand | :08:35. | :08:44. | |
palaces which will go on sale. This is a more intimate corner, the file, | :08:44. | :08:52. | |
how to use the television remote. Copies of the Holy Koran, and a | :08:52. | :09:02. | |
:09:02. | :09:02. | ||
book he was perhaps Reading, about the French First Lady. This is a | :09:02. | :09:07. | |
huge informal drawing room for entertaining with a lot of personal | :09:07. | :09:12. | |
mementoes. Come and see, if you can, through the paper, photographs of | :09:12. | :09:22. | |
the family. Ben Ali, his second wife Mailer, and their last child - | :09:22. | :09:28. | |
their only son. He also had five daughters from two marriages. For | :09:28. | :09:35. | |
all of this will go on sale, including this glittering | :09:35. | :09:45. | |
:09:45. | :09:46. | ||
collection of prayer beads or worry beads as they are sometimes known. | :09:46. | :09:50. | |
Crystal, gold and candles for the lavish entertaining that must have | :09:50. | :09:58. | |
gone on here. Ivory, Jade, even the desert scene in gold. This must be | :09:58. | :10:03. | |
for adults. If you have six children, you need a place for them | :10:03. | :10:08. | |
as well. Look at this play room. A lot of Tories, including this | :10:08. | :10:18. | |
:10:18. | :10:20. | ||
special car former -- for his son. The car bomb has killed a regional | :10:20. | :10:25. | |
police chief in Afghanistan. General Mohammad Musa Rasoli's car | :10:25. | :10:28. | |
was hit by the explosion as he drove to work. One soldier was | :10:28. | :10:31. | |
injured. Although no group has claimed responsibility, the Taliban | :10:31. | :10:41. | |
:10:41. | :10:45. | ||
often target officials. A tour bus has crashed into a | :10:45. | :10:47. | |
ravine in Taiwan killing 13 people. Ten survivors were rescued by | :10:47. | :10:50. | |
emergency workers and taken to hospitals close to the area in | :10:50. | :10:53. | |
Hsinchu County where the accident happened. The bus was taking | :10:53. | :10:56. | |
passengers to a class reunion from a school they had graduated from | :10:56. | :10:58. | |
more than 40 years ago. A television studio which collapsed | :10:58. | :11:01. | |
killing 115 people during last year's New Zealand earthquake | :11:01. | :11:03. | |
should never have been built. That's the conclusion of an inquiry | :11:03. | :11:05. | |
which says the Canterbury Television building in Christchurch | :11:05. | :11:08. | |
was badly designed, inadequately constructed, and should not have | :11:08. | :11:18. | |
:11:18. | :11:30. | ||
been approved. All eyes on Italy. Be yes, what we | :11:30. | :11:35. | |
are looking at a day in particular, this time last year the borrowing | :11:35. | :11:41. | |
costs for the Italian government was 7.5%. That is what investors | :11:41. | :11:47. | |
basically demanded, forced them to buy Italian debt. It was one of the | :11:47. | :11:52. | |
reasons we saw Silvio Berlusconi exit the government, and Mario | :11:52. | :11:58. | |
Monti then had to walk this financial tightrope. He had to | :11:58. | :12:01. | |
introduce some tough austerity measures and he can't have the | :12:01. | :12:06. | |
markets. Now we have the situation back up and running with Silvio | :12:07. | :12:15. | |
Berlusconi putting his bid in two Mario Monti so he will exit. You | :12:15. | :12:20. | |
have the markets all over the place. The markets have dropped. Some of | :12:20. | :12:25. | |
the banks in Italy taking big hits today, five, 6% down. The borrowing | :12:25. | :12:30. | |
costs are approaching 5%, so the European Central Bank has said in | :12:30. | :12:35. | |
the last few hours Italy must stick to its reforms. One former | :12:35. | :12:40. | |
economist we spoke to earlier said he is not surprised. This has | :12:40. | :12:46. | |
always been a crisis of confidence. Make no confidence has improved, | :12:46. | :12:52. | |
the ECB safety-net has improved the mood a lot. This really doesn't do | :12:52. | :12:55. | |
anything to improve things again. We could see a period of | :12:55. | :13:02. | |
nervousness again, it could need more expensive countries to re- | :13:02. | :13:08. | |
finance themselves leading to a more sustainable situation. Clearly | :13:08. | :13:14. | |
this is not a good development. Let's go from one exodus to another, | :13:14. | :13:18. | |
because a Hollywood actor has become the latest world the | :13:18. | :13:28. | |
:13:28. | :13:41. | ||
Frenchman to flee the country's wealth tax. He has of to property, | :13:41. | :13:48. | |
and there is a 75% tax rate on people who earn over a million | :13:48. | :13:56. | |
euros a year. Let's go over to Paris. This is an interesting story. | :13:56. | :14:00. | |
This actor is joining the ranks of a few 1000 who have chosen this | :14:00. | :14:06. | |
little Belgian village literally just across the border. Yes, it is | :14:06. | :14:11. | |
interesting. He is quite open about it, it is obvious the reason for | :14:11. | :14:16. | |
his exile, the fact that it is so near to the border. The house he | :14:16. | :14:22. | |
will move into is an old customs offices house, just to show how | :14:22. | :14:27. | |
close it is to the border. Quite evidently the purpose is for tax | :14:27. | :14:37. | |
:14:37. | :14:42. | ||
reasons and it is very emblematic, he is the most famous French actor. | :14:42. | :14:46. | |
He is well known to be on the right, politically, a rather grumpy, | :14:46. | :14:51. | |
temperamental character, the sort of person who would do this. Far | :14:51. | :14:55. | |
more damaging I think to the government is the general | :14:55. | :15:00. | |
disgruntlement that one hears of in business circles, and clearly that | :15:00. | :15:04. | |
has much greater implications for the future of French economic | :15:04. | :15:10. | |
development. If it's wealth creators, business types start | :15:10. | :15:14. | |
thinking of moving abroad, that is where the focus should be but it | :15:14. | :15:21. | |
draws attention to this 75% banning, and the wealthy are feeling | :15:21. | :15:26. | |
victimised in France. From the outside, looking in, we say this is | :15:26. | :15:36. | |
:15:36. | :15:39. | ||
an interesting story but how is It is a mixture. Your political | :15:39. | :15:43. | |
affiliation were determined to a point, your point of view. On the | :15:43. | :15:47. | |
left, you say this is responsible and there are plenty of rich people | :15:47. | :15:50. | |
staying behind and saying, conditions are difficult, but we | :15:50. | :15:54. | |
have benefited from the French in for structure of social benefits | :15:54. | :15:57. | |
and so on. And there are those who say that in France, we have a | :15:57. | :16:02. | |
culture of hating wealth, and it is all Catholic tradition. We have | :16:02. | :16:06. | |
always despised wealthy people and it goes back to the revolution and | :16:06. | :16:10. | |
so on. I suspect most people are worried about this. They do not | :16:10. | :16:14. | |
think it is a good thing. They are not stupid, they can look around | :16:14. | :16:18. | |
the world and see how France risks becoming uncompetitive and it will | :16:18. | :16:23. | |
not do much good to the economy if these wealth creators ago. They can | :16:23. | :16:28. | |
hear the mood among business people. It is hard to get a true picture of | :16:28. | :16:33. | |
this. The media really do play up every move abroad. On the other | :16:33. | :16:39. | |
hand, the Government plays down the phenomenon. There are two extreme | :16:39. | :16:43. | |
versions of what is going on. Actually telling how many people | :16:43. | :16:47. | |
are going and how deep the feeling of fear is and how seriously big | :16:47. | :16:54. | |
companies are thinking of moving abroad, it is difficult to know. | :16:54. | :16:59. | |
The world's second largest economy, China, appears robust despite | :16:59. | :17:04. | |
economic slowdown in much of the rest of the world. Chinese | :17:04. | :17:07. | |
factories were busier in of November. Output from those | :17:07. | :17:11. | |
factories rose 10% from the previous year. Chinese people are | :17:11. | :17:15. | |
also spending their hard-earned cash, boosting retail sales, which | :17:15. | :17:19. | |
were up nearly 15%. This has helped offset the slowdown in exports. | :17:19. | :17:27. | |
They are still growing, but at a slower rate of 2.5%. A senior | :17:27. | :17:31. | |
economic analyst said the Chinese government has had success propping | :17:31. | :17:36. | |
up the economy with injections of cash. A industrial production is up | :17:36. | :17:40. | |
10%, which is a positive number. Over the past couple of numbers, it | :17:40. | :17:44. | |
-- over the past couple of months, it was lower. So there is an | :17:44. | :17:46. | |
improvement there because the Government has been aggressive in | :17:46. | :17:52. | |
trying to stimulate growth domestic live. They have been injecting | :17:52. | :17:55. | |
liquidity into the banking system. There has been a huge amount of | :17:55. | :18:00. | |
rail investment, up over 100% this month. The Government is focusing | :18:00. | :18:05. | |
on trying to revive growth. There is also a boom Frasier's second | :18:06. | :18:11. | |
biggest economy, the world's third largest, Japan. Wealth is shrinking | :18:11. | :18:18. | |
in there today. The economy fell, or contracted by 0.9%, putting | :18:18. | :18:22. | |
their country back into recession. Japanese exporters have also been | :18:22. | :18:28. | |
struggling to sell goods overseas. Due to the strong value of their | :18:28. | :18:32. | |
currency, the yen, a strong currency makes Japanese goods more | :18:32. | :18:39. | |
expensive for us to buy overseas. It also makes sales at home | :18:39. | :18:46. | |
difficult. You are watching BBC World News. | :18:46. | :18:56. | |

In Ghana, President John Mahama has been declared the winner or | :19:00. | :19:03. | |
Friday's election. But the opposition says the poll was | :19:03. | :19:07. | |
fraudulent, and will meet on Tuesday to decide what to do. The | :19:07. | :19:12. | |
Electoral Commission said Mr Mahama won 50.7% of the vote, avoiding the | :19:12. | :19:16. | |
need for a run-off. He has urged leaders of all political parties to | :19:16. | :19:22. | |
respect the voice of the people. Even before the results were | :19:22. | :19:27. | |
announced, projections that John Mahama had won gonna's presidential | :19:27. | :19:30. | |
election led to protests on the streets of across. The main | :19:30. | :19:35. | |
opposition in Ghana, the New Patriotic Party, has accused the | :19:35. | :19:38. | |
governing National Democratic Congress of conspiring with the | :19:38. | :19:42. | |
Electoral Commission to fix the poll, a claim rejected by the party. | :19:42. | :19:46. | |
Inside the Commission's offices, security was tight as the result | :19:46. | :19:56. | |
:19:56. | :19:58. | ||
was made official. Ladies and gentlemen, based on the results | :19:58. | :20:08. | |
given, I declare John Mahama of President elect. This election was | :20:08. | :20:12. | |
troubled even before the claims of vote tampering. Glitches with the | :20:12. | :20:16. | |
new fingerprinting system meant that Friday's poll had to be | :20:16. | :20:20. | |
extended into Saturday in parts of the country. But observers said the | :20:20. | :20:26. | |
election had passed off largely peacefully. Mr Mahama was gonna's | :20:26. | :20:30. | |
vice-president until the unexpected death of the president in July | :20:30. | :20:34. | |
catapulted him into office. On the sombre occasion of his | :20:34. | :20:40. | |
predecessor's funeral, he paid tribute to his leadership qualities. | :20:40. | :20:44. | |
Now his own time as leader is to be extended, and his supporters are | :20:45. | :20:49. | |
jubilant. But their celebrations could be short-lived if the dispute | :20:49. | :20:52. | |
over Ghana's election result destabilises a country which boasts | :20:52. | :20:57. | |
one of the world's fastest growing economies and is regarded as one of | :20:57. | :21:02. | |
Africa's most well-established democracies. | :21:02. | :21:05. | |

the Commons home affairs committee argues that Britain might benefit | :22:03. | :22:06. | |
from the approach, which removes criminal penalties for people found | :22:06. | :22:11. | |
with small quantities of drugs, if they go into an effective treatment | :22:11. | :22:15. | |
programme. But the British government insists that drugs used | :22:15. | :22:22. | |
in the UK is already falling. For 15 years, drug use has dropped | :22:22. | :22:26. | |
in the UK, but it still costs the justice system and health service | :22:26. | :22:29. | |
billions. A report by the Home Affairs committee says the | :22:29. | :22:35. | |
Government should look overseas for suggestions, like here in Portugal, | :22:35. | :22:38. | |
where drugs were effectively decriminalised. And other places | :22:38. | :22:42. | |
where cannabis has been legalised. We need a programme that deals with | :22:42. | :22:47. | |
treatment as well as punishment. If we can focus on the dealers and get | :22:47. | :22:52. | |
them prosecuted, but also focus on those who are addicted, and also | :22:52. | :22:58. | |
not forgetting that the victims are the people who suffer as a result, | :22:58. | :23:04. | |
this approach is what is required. Today's report also calls for a | :23:04. | :23:08. | |
royal commission to rethink the drugs problem. It wants better | :23:08. | :23:12. | |
treatment for addicts and a focus on what it calls alarming increases | :23:12. | :23:16. | |
in addiction to Prakash friction drugs like relaxants and sleeping | :23:17. | :23:21. | |
pills. At this club clinic in London, the staff share the | :23:21. | :23:26. | |
report's concerns about another growth area, so-called legal highs. | :23:26. | :23:29. | |
As fast as the Government has outlawed substances like mephedrone, | :23:29. | :23:35. | |
others become available. She it is crucial that as these new drug | :23:35. | :23:41. | |
trends emerge, the treatment system and the policymakers adapt to these | :23:41. | :23:47. | |
new patterns. The Government says a royal commission on drugs is not | :23:47. | :23:55. | |
necessary, and says it has no intention of legalising cannabis. | :23:55. | :23:57. | |
The Mexican Americans singing superstar Jenni Rivera has been | :23:57. | :24:01. | |
killed and a plane crash in northern Mexico. The 43-year-old | :24:01. | :24:07. | |
and six other passengers and crew boarded a plane from Monterey on | :24:07. | :24:10. | |
Sunday after performing in a concert. Aviation authorities lost | :24:10. | :24:14. | |
contact with the plane ten minutes after take-off. Born in California | :24:14. | :24:20. | |
to Mexican parents, Jenni Rivera sold more than 20 million records. | :24:20. | :24:24. | |
Valeria Perasso, a correspondent for BBC Mundo, based in Los Angeles, | :24:24. | :24:30. | |
says Jenni Rivera left her mark on both sides of the US-Mexican border. | :24:30. | :24:34. | |
She was a big superstar within the Latino community in the US and also | :24:34. | :24:40. | |
in Mexico, where she was well known for being one of the leading | :24:40. | :24:46. | |
singers for a particular musical genre, which is basically a mix of | :24:46. | :24:51. | |
different musical styles from northern Mexico. It is a huge | :24:51. | :24:56. | |
business in the US and the area around the border. So she was well | :24:56. | :25:00. | |
known by fans on both sides of the border. | :25:01. | :25:03. | |
Dozens of same-sex couples in the United States have taken their | :25:03. | :25:07. | |
wedding vows after a vote to approve gay marriage law came into | :25:07. | :25:17. | |
:25:17. | :25:17. | ||
effect in Washington state. The ceremonies began at midnight. | :25:17. | :25:22. | |
As soon as it became legally possible to do so, Washington | :25:22. | :25:27. | |
State's same-sex couples were tying the knot. At Seattle's City Hall, | :25:27. | :25:33. | |
they were saying their vows every half an hour. To celebrate the love | :25:33. | :25:37. | |
we have for one another not only three our families and friends but | :25:37. | :25:40. | |
also through the court system in Washington state, it is an | :25:40. | :25:45. | |
exceptional opportunity to have for everyone here to recognise it. Our | :25:45. | :25:50. | |
union is really between each other. Gay marriage is now illegal in six | :25:50. | :25:55. | |
American states and in Washington DC, but the 38 states banned it. | :25:55. | :26:00. | |
Public opinion is shifting, though. Recent polls showed that more are | :26:00. | :26:03. | |
in favour of same-sex marriage them are against it, and supporters | :26:03. | :26:07. | |
include President Obama. By have been going through an evolution on | :26:07. | :26:11. | |
this issue. Money and Sasha have friends whose parents are same-sex | :26:11. | :26:15. | |
couples. It would not dawn on them that somehow, their friends' | :26:15. | :26:18. | |
parents would be treated differently. That is the kind of | :26:18. | :26:22. | |
thing that prompts a change of perspective. Or all eyes are now on | :26:22. | :26:27. | |
the Supreme Court. The justices have decided to review two laws | :26:27. | :26:31. | |
concerning same-sex marriage. Many expect that they will rule that gay | :26:31. | :26:36. | |
married couples have the same rights as heterosexual ones. It is | :26:36. | :26:40. | |
possible that they might go further and make a gay marriage illegal in | :26:40. | :26:46. |
