the people who got awards. and that response. it is thought list was available online for about an hour. includes people in the police a cabinet office spokesperson told the bbc a version of the new year services, you know, for whom it may be very dangerous there addresses honours 2020 list was there. being in the world for them —— their addresses. and obviously politicians, although clearly most according to the cabinet office, people may know where they live. and everybody affected is being celebrities who have received abuse, very nasty abuse online. it made me contacted and is looking into how this has happened. it has reported feel deeply uncomfortable about the matter to the information their address being commissioner ‘s office and the ico feel deeply uncomfortable about theiraddress being in feel deeply uncomfortable about is likely to assess whether there's their address being in the public domain stop by the information been any breach of data protection commissioner is going to take quite an interest in this. information legislation. they will be looking at commissioner has two hit them with a the reasons and the factors that very heavy fine. this is basically a spreadsheet that was put out online. contributed to the access information coming out this time. so there are over 1000 people on the they will be looking at processes, honours list and many, many, many of they will be looking at processes, they will be looking at staff training, they will be looking at them have their home addresses out the tools and the resources that there. and, actually, ithink... i staff had to do, to use a. the scale have toned down honours on occasion and the last one about three years of possible data breach here is ago andi and the last one about three years ago and i would be so annoyed if my relatively small, but the notable
11:04 pm
people affected and the potential home address was now put out there their security has been put at risk on make this embarrassing for the government. katie austin, bbc news. well, household names and previously unsung volunteers are part of group to be recognised in the new year honours list. sir eltonjohn has received the highest accolade — he's been made a companion of honour. other singers feature olivia newtonjohn becomes a dame, and billy ocean is made an mbe. the film directors sam mendes and steve mcqueen are knighted. four members of england's world cup—winning cricket team have also had their achievements recognised. kathryn stanczysyn reports. olivia newton—john says she's grateful beyond words to be made a dame for services to charity. a damehood too for former tv presenter, floella benjamin for her lifelong work with children's charities. volunteering always features heavily in honours list, with many who aren't household names being rewarded. i'm no hero, iwas lucky, i'm here, all the heroes are dead and i'll never forget them as long as i live. thank you, darling! people like d—day veteran harry billinge, who becomes an mbe
11:05 pm
in recognition of his work fund—raising for veterans. you know when i'm doing this collection i get a wonderful calm comes over me, because i'm doing something for the boys. back in 2012, rhian manning's one—year—old son, george, died. her husband, paul took his own life five days later. she now runs a charity in wales to help those experiencing bereavement and is now an mbe. it's starting to sink in, i still can't believe it, i'm pretty overwhelmed, i haven't slept much. yeah, bitter sweet in a way, but i'm extremely proud, i really am. in the world of politics, some controversy. the decision to award a knighthood to the former work and pensions secretary iain duncan smith has been criticised by opposition parties over his introduction of universal credit. and some questions over a damehood for former director of public prosecutions alison

saunders after a number of scandals. in entertainment there were knighthoods for two british film makers — steve mcqueen, who directed the oscar—winning 12 years a slave and sam mendes, who directed bond films sky fall and spectre. and in sport, eoin morgan who, captained england to victory in the cricket world cup becomes a cbe, ben stokes an obe, jos buttler and joe root both mbes. an mbe too for england star jill scott for services to women's football. there has of course been talk of both the people getting those honours and the fact that their names have appeared inadvertently online for a short time. we will be taking a look in around 20 minutes' time at what the papers make of that story. so do stay with us for that
11:07 pm
as we pick the front pages. earlier, i spoke to taekwondo world and double olympic champion jadejones who has been awarded an obe. she told me it felt amazing to receive the title. to be recognised at the highest level and to be going to the palace again to receive an honour, it's just amazing and obviously i was so young last time getting it, so i feel like i will appreciate it more this time. yeah, we're watching some pictures of you celebrating back in 2012, when you won your olympic title there. you talked about the feeling of being at the palace and getting that honour, give us a sense of how the day unfolds. yeah, no, it was just so special, i remember me mum, me nan and grand—dad being there and even for them to get to go to the palace and i remember itjust being dead emotional and you know me being in a little town in flint and then being in the palace, it was just surreal and so magical. and people often make something of the fact that i think you get
11:08 pm
told about this quite a long time before you're allowed to say anything, you've got to keep the secret. yeah, that's the hard thing, obviously i got told and then they say, "you're not allowed to tell anyone," and obviously like i told my mum and said, "you know, you cannot tell anyone," and i know what she's like for keeping secrets, so she found it very hard, but i'm glad now you know it's out in the open and i can say it proudly and like you know celebrate it and be happy. what kind of a difference do you think this kind of recognition makes, particularly to the sport of taekwondo and women who are competing in that sport? yes, i'm proud to be a woman in sport and it's getting bigger and bigger and also taekwondo, it started off such a minority sport and to see it grow and how much funding it's getting and how much recognition it's getting now, itjust amazing and like you said it makes me proud and hopefully can i pass stuff on to the next generation and make them look up to it and you know want to achieve great things themselves.
11:09 pm
absolutely. now of course, today's story about the honour‘s list has been — overshadowed is maybe too strong a word, but there has been controversy, because there has been this data breach, when you become aware of the fact that your address may have been temporarily visible to people looking at that list online? well, to be honest i didn't even know until i was just listening to it now, so, yeah, it's literally the first i've heard of it. yeah, you know, obviously mistakes can be made and i know it is dangerous about people's addresses getting out, but you know i'm sure they didn't do it on purpose. how concerning is that to you that people might be able to see where you live and find out information that normally would be very private? yeah, you know it is scary, but it is a good job i do taekwondo! we have heard that the cabinet office is trying to contact people, but from what you're saying you have not had a phone call or any contact today to tell you about what had happened?
11:10 pm
no, not as of yet, no. but you would a hope to hear directly from them about what's been done and what they're doing now? yeah, definitely, because i think for me as well it wouldn't even my my address, it would be my mum's address. hopefully, if my address has gone out, then i would like to know about it. just tell us about looking ahead to the future, because of course tokyo 2020 could be a further olympic title for you? yeah, i think it's so exciting and at first i was a little bit stressed about it, because there is a lot of pressure, but especially now going into 2020, i'm really excited and just feel very privileged and honoured to have the chance to try and make history, you know going for my third olympics and, like i said, to have the chance to have that shot is just amazing and i will put my heart and soul on the mat and give everything i've got to get that third gold.

11:12 pm
within minutes, emergency workers were at the scene. somalia, plagued by violence for decades, is still wrestling with extremism. the country's president quickly blamed the islamist militant group al—shabaab. he said their aim was to instil terror and to prevent the country from rebuilding. they will never succeed, he said. al—shabaab, linked to al-qaeda, is still a threat in a country plagued by drought, feuding clans, and the aftermath of a terrible civil war. but the group has lost ground in recent yea rs, targeted but the group has lost ground in recent years, targeted by american drones and african union troops. today's devastating attack will fuel the fears that somalia's security forces are too weak and divided to protect civilians in mogadishu and that foreign troops, who are
11:13 pm
supposed to be on their way out, will be needed here for many years to come. andrew harding, bbc news. the family of a man who was shot dead in wandsworth, in south—west london on christmas eve, say they are in a state of shock. flamur beqiri was a swedish national aged 36. detectives are continuing to appeal for anyone with information to come forward. no arrests have been made. the lawyer representing the family of a british father and his two children, who drowned in a hotel swimming pool in spain, says a more in depth investigation into their deaths is needed. the hotel has insisted the pool was working normally, but the mother of the children says all three could swim. helena wilkinson reports. this is gabriel with his nine—year—old daughter, comfort. his wife and the children's mother says all three could swim and suggested

there was something wrong with the pool there was something wrong with the pool. police say there was nothing wrong with it, but the family lawyer has questioned that. translation: if the spanish police can give us a possible cause for this tragic incident, we might do a parallel investigation with experts to find out what happened. it's very rare for three people to die in the centre of a swimming pool, especially in the case of a tall, hefty man. earlier, the resort with the family was staying, issued a new statement, disputing the claims. it said they were directly at odds with the findings of the police report and it makes clear, et cetera, that the exhaustive investigations have confirmed the pool was working normally and there was no malfunction of any kind. it was on christmas eve when the family all went to this pool. she says her children went in baby steps, but found themselves dragged into the middle where it was deeper, the husband jumped into hell. not long

it comes with west ham just above the relegation premier league relegation zone after defeat at home to leicester city this afternoon and ends an up and down 18 months at the london stadium. our reporter adam wild spoke to me a little earlier. that defeat to leicester city proving the final straw for west ham, no real surprise. that feed, they have been on a disastrous run. it left them in 17th place, just in point and it left them in 17th place, just in pointand a it left them in 17th place, just in point and a place above the allegations. perhaps it's a —— what perhaps as a surprise is in the post match interview a few overs ago. he didn't seem to show any sign of expecting what was to follow. let's see what he had to say immediately after that defeat to leicester city this afternoon. for me the most important thing, i say it's been behind them, doesn't matter what's
11:17 pm
happening, the study was full, full capacity. they deserve a better performance, we are trying to find which is the way to do it. i think that the players want to do it but the pressure and the lack of confidence and the lack of result, it's difficult. that was the him speaking immediately after that degree —— defeat to leicester city this afternoon. a couple of hours later it was confirmed he has left the club. it came from a statement from thejoint the club. it came from a statement from the joint chairman sullivan, he says the changes required. west ham, the next match, they take on almost on new year's day on a 530 gig. on almost on new year's day on a 530 gig, no indication who will be in charge for that fixture. i can tell
11:18 pm
you though, the early favourite with the bookmakers is david moyes, to make a return. i wonder how that will go down with west ham fans. on the pitch this evening, manchester united moved up to fifth in the table with a 2—0 win at burnley. charlie taylor was culpable for united's opener. he was dispossed by andreas pereira, who fed anthony martial for his third goal in two games over the festive period. marcus rashford scored with pretty much the last kick of the game, catching burnley out as they pressed for an equaliser. elsehwere, brighton beat bournemouth 2—0. everton beat newcastle 2—1 to make it 2 from 2 under carlo ancelotti. spurs twice came from behind to draw with bottom side norwich. southampton shared a 1—1 draw with crystal palace whilst watford are three points from safety after beating aston villa 3—0. three time grand slam winner andy murray is out of the australian open next month. having only recently returned from nearly two years blighted by hip problems, a pelvic injury troubled him towards the end of the season and although he is back on court,
11:19 pm
he's taken the decision not to travel to australia. he'll continue his rehab and preseason training instead with a view to playing an indoor event in france at the start of february. england have given themselves a fighting if not outside chance of victory in the first test against south africa in centurion. opener rory burns steered england to 121—1 at the close of day three, with 255 still needed for what would be england's highest run chase. south africa were dismissed for 272 asjofra archer taking five wickets. england, though, were hit more more illness on day three. jos buttler was replaced behind the stumps byjonny bairstow, while captainjoe root also spent time off the field. there was a seven try thriller at franklins gardens as northampton edged past gloucester 33—26. cobus reinach scored two tries, this solo effort the pick of them, running from well beyond the half way line to cross the whitewash. the saints survived a late fightback and three tries from louis rees zammit.

11:21 pm
has been cancelled... leeds station this morning where passengers faced delays and cancellations. britain's trains have been described as expensive, overcrowded and unreliable by the campaign for better transport, and today the group is calling for a radical overhaul of the way the railways are run. it suggests that franchises should be scrapped and fares reformed, but it doesn't estimate how much that would cost. before today's report, the government was already considering big changes. within the next few weeks the department for transport is expected to publish plans which it says will put passengers first and create a fairer and more effective system and that is something that people here in leeds think is overdue. there was a week about two months ago where i got about 1k trains that week and every single one was delayed by about ten minutes or more. every time we have ever been on a train it has either been cancelled or delayed
11:22 pm
or it is so busy. if it is more effective to have it brought back into the council and they actually have control over what is going on i think that probably could be quite good. you need the service but you can't guarantee it. and that is the biggest frustration for me personally. another suggestion is handing more control of the railways to cities and regions, something which has been welcomed by the mayor of greater manchester. if we had more control we could integrate the trains with our trams, buses, we could make it a london style integrated transport system, and that is what a city like manchester needs if we are to go up to the next level. it can't be right that it costs much more to travel around manchester than it does to travel round london. meanwhile, train fares are due to increase by an average of 2.7% in just three days' time. olivia richwald, bbc news, leeds. and we'll be taking an in—depth look at the papers with our reviewers the broadcaster, lynn faulds wood and senior reporter at the sunday
11:23 pm

break up some of the cloud delivering at least some glimpses of sunshine. having said that starting off sunday on a cloud note for most, sponsor drizzle over heels in the west, as we go through the day for east anglia the south—east, part of north wales, northern ireland, we should see some spells of sunshine. north of scotland will keep the band of cloud and some outbreaks of rent. for southern areas were looking at highs of nine or 10 degrees. northern areas 12 or 13 degrees. when you get some shelter from the south or south—west of the wind to the north coast of scotland, we could see temperatures up to 1a or 15 degrees. that's pretty exceptional. for this time of year. as we go to sunday night, we will continue to see some areas of cloud and that will break up busy clear spells, the odd fog patch here and there, rent continues across the final thrust of scotland and they will be a slightly cooler night. as we get to monday, this frontal system will continue to bring some rain across scotland and northern ireland, staggering its way slowly south—east woods, and have it is —— and is largely dry day. cloud on the child, there will be cloudy spells but they should also be some sunny
11:25 pm
spells. it should be a bright day for many of us. that rent continue to trundle its way southwards in scotla nd to trundle its way southwards in scotland and northern ireland and the mild weather being pushed southwards at this stage. as we get to tuesday, the weather front with the workers were southwards, lingering across the far south—west, with cloud in the spotted drizzle, we see brighter skies but also some cooler weather, temperatures from many of us back down into single digits. and for all important celebrations on new year's eve, through tuesday night, into the early hours of wednesday, it's looking predominantly dry, there will be ‘s clear spells, it will get chilly but they could also be some patchy fog. 00:26:23,478 --> 4294966103:13:29,430 were accidentally published online.
