A double amputee has been jailed for a year after leading police on a high-speed car pursuit, using modified broom handles to control the vehicle. The three-mile chase ended when Robert Bate crashed through a fence near Hawthorn, County Durham, in January. When officers examined his automatic Vauxhall Astra they found the wooden poles duct-taped to the pedals. Bate, 27, of Seventh Street, Blackhall, admitted dangerous driving when he appeared at Newcastle Crown Court. The court heard that a marked police car spotted the Astra on a stretch of the B1285 near Hawthorn. It stopped briefly when police activated their sirens and blue lights, but then sped off …

Channel 4's Big Brother final will no longer be shown live because contestants on this year's show broke rules on swearing before the watershed. The move comes after broadcasting watchdog Ofcom upheld two complaints against Channel 4 over three separate incidents of bad language on the show. Ofcom noted that 14% of the 6.4 million viewers on the night were children. Channel 4 said it had undertaken "a serious review", and next year's final would be shown on a time delay. http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/entertainment/6188244.stm

Record numbers of Britons are buying real fur, overturning decades of campaigning by activists who say substitutes should be worn instead. Sales of fur clothing have hit £500m for the first time, up 30 per cent on two years ago, with £40m of new fur products being imported every year. To the fury of the anti-cruelty lobby, the championing of real fur by supermodels and top designers is sending sales soaring, with, say protesters, young animals being clubbed and shot by hunters as a result. The fashion designer Stella McCartney last night told The Independent on Sunday: "The continuing use of fur is a real problem in the fashion industry, and there is an issue wi…

Condoms, Johnnies, French letters, Durex, love gloves, rubbers. Call them what you will, Beatrice Were wishes her husband Francis had worn one.

Now 38, she hears that the Pope may relax the Roman Catholic church's total ban on condoms, and has something to say to him. "Most women in my country abstain from sex until marriage, only to be infected by their husband. Even when you may…

Andy Robinson has had his last game as England coach, according to BBC Radio Five Live's Sportsweek programme. England have lost eight of their last nine matches and a "well-placed" source has told the programme Robinson will be asked to resign or face the sack. First choice as replacement is World Cup-winning captain Martin Johnson. But if Johnson is not available, former Wasps and Ireland coach Warren Gatland or ex-South Africa coach Nick Mallett will come into the frame. England have lost 13 of their 22 Tests under Robinson - including three of this month's four autumn internationals - and have slumped to seventh in the IRB world rankings. Robinson's t…
