he isjust continuing to struggle with his breath. (are to the sickest, just going to pop a cannula in your site and take some bloods. he recovered after a few days in hospital. what i saw over a few days was a highly rated hospital i love it and i hate it, it's one of those, but the good days outweigh the bad days. the nhs is living right on the edge. there is a new plan for change. it needs to work. our health editor hugh pym reporting. later this week, hugh will look at how the royal bournemouth hospital is working with others to encourage people not to go to a&e unless it's an emergency. the "super blood wolf moon" was visible in the early hours of this morning and what a sight it was. a rare lunar eclipse and then

the surface of the moon appeared to glow red. the unusual event happens when the earth passes precisely between the sun and the moon. we won't see anything quite as spectacular for another few years. here's our science editor david shukman. an experience that left everyone amazed. wow. you can see the moonlight on your eye. the moon closer to earth than usual, and hour by hour being transformed, from its normal brilliant white to a darker and more mysterious red. the sequence of pictures shows how the shadow of the earth gradually fell across the moon. the sunshine, passing through our atmosphere, looking red on the lunar surface. it produced a mesmerising sight for millions. this image was taken in argentina, but dozens of different countries were also blessed with clear skies. the czech republic had some exceptional views. so did many in germany, where photographers braved freezing temperatures to get

these remarkable scenes. in northumberland, the remote kielder observatory captured this picture. the astronomers gathered there in the early hours were astounded. it was a really magical experience actually, because the whole observatory team were together, watching it, and some of our team have never seen a lunar eclipse before. so just watching the moon turn this deep red colour, and the entire night sky went pitch black. many parts of britain were lucky with the weather atjust the right time. from conisbrough castle in south yorkshire, to this stunning scene in brightlingsea in essex. to another extraordinary vision at seaford in east sussex. david shukman, bbc news. here on bbc one, time for the news where you are. good night. hello and welcome to sportsday —

10:34 pm
we start with the australian open, where the quarter final line—up is now complete. seven—time champion serena williams and top seed novak djokovic were among those to secure their places in the last eight. there were a few tantrums on court today, but williams, kept her cool, showed her class and proved that even after 23 grand slam titles, she's still very much the one to beat. ben croucher reports. welcome to the court, the world number one. not you any more, serena, but simona halep had that honour. you would have been forgiven for thinking that williams was the best in the world. so when simona halep stop the rot finally it ignited a belief in the crowd that those who don't —— could go the

distance. but williams has not won 23 major titles with the out the odd setback and she moved closer to 24th. she was number one, for today at least. she lifted her game to a new level and i kind of state at the same level and should have lifted my game as well but it is part of this journey i went back. if she can be carolina position to cover next then naomi osaka could be waiting in the semi finals. novak djokovic eliminated the men's signals on six separate occasions and for a record seventh he would need to stay switched on against darnell medvedev. he was stretched but had the answers in the first set. but these young stars just will not back
10:36 pm
down. unlike roger federer yesterday novak djokovic had the perfect reply. the russian and his racket bore the brunt of the punishment. if you're going to do that racket breaking things then the world numberfour breaking things then the world number four meant his equal breaking things then the world numberfour meant his equal in breaking things then the world number four meant his equal in the former wimbledon finalist and nothing was out of reach. with just a solitary grand slam quarterfinal to show for his undoubted potential. it made me feel better. i was angry andl it made me feel better. i was angry and i let my anger out. have you done that in the past? you should watch my matches. and in the heat pablo carreno busta, angry at a call tokai could

he well away from the drama of the singles today jamie murray has entered into a war of words with compatriot dan evans saying that he has made a hash of his career. evans, who served time out of the game for a drugs ban, said he saw no sense in celebrating people who didnt have the attitude to make it in the singles game. murray — who's into the quarter finals of the men's and mixed doubles in melbourne had earlier accused the lta of not promoting the success of doubles. and here's what he had to say about evans comments. i think it is ill informed and just dumb to question the reason that we're on the doubles draw because we do not work as hard as the single sky isjust do not work as hard as the single sky is just nonsense and to come from someone who has not applied himself as much as he should and really has made a hash of his career
10:38 pm
with his decision—making. i think to come out with those kind of comments is just ignorant. around 3 or 4 thousand bolton fans were involved in a noisy protest march against the club's owner ken anderson at their stadium ahead of their championship match against west brom this evening. a proposed 58th—minute walk—out in front of live television cameras has was abandoned though. qn. the pitch. bestiary; they lost 2—nil. jay rodriguez opened up huddersfield town have named borussia dortmund second team coach
10:39 pm
the club are bottom of the premier league ten points adrift of 17th place newcastle. adrift of 17th place newca for the new david weinberger or the closest thing that they can get and they have gone back to the source had borussia dortmund. but he has to ta ke borussia dortmund. but he has to take over the relegation fight from a seemingly hopeless position. i can only assume this is already very much an appointment with a view of rebuilding. let's get a quick round—up of the day's other news. ashley cole has reunited with frank lampard — joining derby county. the former england defender has signed a deal until the end of the season with the championship side. cole has until recently been playing for la galaxy in the mls. wolves manager nuno espirito santo has been charged with misconduct by the fa after he was sent off in his side's dramatic 4—3 victory against leicester on saturday. he ran on to the pitch
10:40 pm
to celebrate with his players following their last minute winner — he has until thursday evening to respond. ulster lock iain henderson is set to miss ireland's opening it's a huge year ahead for england's cricketers. they host the world cup which starts at the end of may. then later in the summer they'll try to win back the ashes against australia. before all that, joe root‘s team are in the west indies where they'll try and win a test series for only the second time in 60 years. the first match starts in barbados on wednesday. obviously we want to come here and win. a lot of english fancier and i think the challenge will be the
10:41 pm
expectation of winning against a side that has very dangerous and very good players. we know the threat that they have and as a team we are very focused right now on this particular game. well as we mentioned the world cup will be staged on english home soil this year and one day captain eoin morgan says his team are comfortable with being labelled the favourites. morgan was on playground duty today and joe wilson went to meet him. eoin morgan was inspiring about 25 young people in north london today. the world cup will engage a million british children. many people have the responsibility to make cricket releva nt. the responsibility to make cricket relevant. but man relevant. but only one man captains the one—day team. to win successfully this year does not involve england lifting the world cup? i think at some stage over the
10:42 pm
next ten years it would be remiss of me to say it would be disappointing if we did not win. everything has been building towards that. it a lwa ys been building towards that. it always is through every world cup, the aspiration is to lift the trophy at the end. i think with this group of players and with the age being quite young i think this is the first chance to lift the trophy. alan morgan leads the one—day tour of the caribbean in february. but after the recent- everyone “iii t; world ,,, t; world in w through. te—thewerld—cupfian—ty in mid—july. it london in mid—july. it is important to be inspired by that. you cannot be wilting underneath the being favourites. ‘being favourites. i ‘ being favourites. i think wearing of being favourites. i think wearing that favourites tag is something that we have grown comfortable with. in the previous series we were not favourites going into any way
10:43 pm
fixture up against big nations but the more successful we have been, the more successful we have been, the more successful we have been, the more confident we have become in wearing that favourites tag. meanwhile at this primary school the enthusiasm was not quite matched by the fielding. that's all from sportsday. coming up in a moment, the papers. good night. with me are the former pensions minister baroness ros theresa may returned to - house of
