Action needed after Leicester City crash, says coroner
Urgent action must be taken to address concerns about helicopter rules after a crash killed five people near Leicester City's stadium, a coroner football club's chairman Vichai Srivaddhanaprabha, fellow passengers Kaveporn Punpare and Nusara Suknamai, pilot Eric Swaffer and Mr Swaffer's partner Izabela Roza Lechowicz all died in the crash on 27 October 2018.A prevention of future deaths report was sent to the European Union Aviation Safety Authority (EASA) and the Civil Aviation Authority (CAA) after an inquest into the Prof Catherine Mason said current aviation rules may not adequately prevent crucial parts from wearing out prematurely and cause failures. Part makers may not receive all the detailed flight and system test data from manufacturers, so they cannot fully check if they are safe, the coroner Mason said concerns were raised about the lack of clear rules on how long some important helicopter parts should last and how they should be inspected, especially for aircraft already in coroner wrote of worries that helicopter makers are not currently required by regulations to thoroughly check critical parts after removal from service, which could help catch problems highlighted concerns raised during the inquest about the lack of clear rules for calculating stresses on key helicopter parts and the need for better standards to ensure ongoing report pointed to "failure modes analysis at a system level".The coroner wrote: "In my opinion, action should be taken to prevent future deaths, and I believe that each of EASA and the CAA have power to take such action."On October 27 2018, after a match between Leicester City and West Ham, the Leonardo AW169 helicopter spun out of control after it took off from the helicopter began to spin when Mr Swaffer tried to do a right-hand turn over the stadium to take Khun Vichai and the other passengers to Stansted Airport, an inquest jury previously Air Accidents Investigation Branch (AAIB) report found that the helicopter began uncontrollably spinning when a bearing in the tail rotor "seized" after its lubrication broke down, jurors were aircraft landed on its left-hand side on a 1.6ft (0.5m) concrete step, causing a fuel leak which ignited and "rapidly" engulfed the helicopter in jury of 11 people, who heard evidence over two weeks, concluded that the deaths were of the five victims, including Khun Vichai, died due to smoke inhalation and it was likely they would have survived their injuries if the fire had not started, it was cause of Ms Lechowicz's death was given as "significant" head and chest injuries, and she would have died "extremely quickly" after the helicopter crashed into the ground.

Watch the awkward Love Island moment that ‘proves' two girls are feuding, say fans
LOVE Island fans have called out an awkward moment which they reckon "proves" two villa beauties are locked in a fued. It came as the ITV2 show cast switched to their PJs and bedded down in the communal room ahead of last night's brutal first eviction. 6 6 6 Manchester beauty Shakira Khan, 22, was left unattached when Toni, 24, stole her man Ben, 23, graft with all her male housemates. On Monday's episode, Shakira was told by Love Island anchor Maya Jama, 30, she would be dumped on Tuesday's episode if she didn't recouple with a partner. And after scenes showed her grafting hard and flirting with all the Love Island 2025 male line-up, branding one a "minx" before praising another's "good vibe," she headed to bed alone. Yet fans were quick to call out a catty comment by Meg as they prepared for lights out. Despite question marks around her own coupling, with fans convinced Meg isn't attracted to Dejon "at all", she appeared quick to stir the pot over Shakira's single status. She pointed out Toni and Ben were sleeping close by her and pointedly said: "Shakira, I just realised you're sleeping dead opposite, awkward." One fan was quick to remark on the apparent feud on X and put: "Meg KILLS me." Another put: "Meg and Helena are beefing Shakira." A third posted: "'sorry but awkward,' yeah thanks Meg we could tell," as another put: "Meg looks awkward!" Yet the scenes came before a dramatic end to the episode, which saw Shakira picks Harry Cooksley after he stood up to reveal a connection for her - meaning Sophie Lee was dumped from the island immediately. Watch awkward moment Love Island's Shakira desperately grafts to stay in the villa - and show rivals are furious Over on Reddit, fans also noted the frosty atmosphere between the girls. One wrote: "Mean girl accusations on episode 2. The show has officially begun." Another added: "It was so b****y, especially from blonde Megan she was doing the absolute most." A third agreed and put: "Dunno why Meg was getting involved, she was always safe with Dejon." SECRET SPAT? Love Island 2025 - current couples LOVE Island's 2025 cast have already undergone a shake-up, here are the latest couples: It came after viewers were convinced there was an unaired argument between Shakira and former show partner Ben. It came amid the unexpected arrival of American bombshell Toni, 24. Yet before the Las Vegas pool cabana server caused chaos by stealing Ben, fan noted supposed bad blood between one pair. Fans reckoned Shakira, who offended swathes of viewers as she made a stark comment about 9-5 jobs, had also irked her partner too. They noted a strange vibe between the model and taxi driver Ben after they were coupled up, and one fan took to X to muse: "Shakira and Ben are clashing already yikes yikes yikesssss." Another quizzed: "Did I miss something between Ben and Shakira - why does everyone hate each other?" A third wrote: "Can we just get a brand new cast I don't like this one." The awkward attitude came shortly before ITV2 viewers threatened to call Ofcom after Shakira was left single - when Toni chose her man to couple up with. Yet show fans already suspect issues with the new couple, claiming Ben simply "doesn't fancy" the American bombshell. 6 6 6

Live Boulter and Raducanu vs Kichenok and Routliffe: Score and latest Queen's updates
Latest updates Luke Slater 11 June 2025 11:18am 11:18AM Katie Boulter overcomes serving woes to live out Queen's 'dream' It was a winning start in the singles for Boulter yesterday, despite some troubles with her serve. She overcame Alja Tomljanovic 7-6, 1-6, 6-4 to progress to the next round. 'I feel like I had a lot of emotions today,' she said. 'I think it's very easy to get caught up in just trying to get your first grass-court match. Also coming to such a historic venue, as well, which holds a lot of purpose and a lot of familiar feelings when I have come here before. 'To get the women back here feels very special. It's actually something I dreamt of, having come here the last couple of years to watch the men play, so I'm just really grateful to be on this court.' 11:06AM Good morning 'They' are calling it Boultercanu. The British Nos 1 and 2 (and world Nos 34 and 37) have teamed up in the women's doubles at Queen's. Their tournament got off to a winning start on Monday, with a comfortable 6-4, 6-2 victory over Wu Fang-hsien and Jiang Xinyu. They admitted they were quite nervous before the match, which was played on Court One rather than Centre Court. 'I was actually very nervous before the match,' Raducanu, who has limited experience in doubles tennis, said. 'I don't know if Katie could tell. But probably more nervous than the singles, because I just didn't really necessarily know what to do, but I'm really happy once we got out there. Katie made me feel so comfortable, and I'm just so pleased to get a win on the board.' Today they are in the quarter-finals of the competition, facing Lyudmyla Kichenok of Ukraine and Erin Routliffe of New Zealand. They defeated the all-British pairing of Jodie Burrage and Sonay Kartal in the first round in a tight 7-6 (10-8), 7-6 (7-1), contest. Kichenok has a decent doubles pedigree. She has never made it into the main draw for a grand slam singles tournament but won the US Open in women's doubles last year and has featured in an Australian Open final and a French Open and Wimbledon semi-final. In mixed doubles she won Wimbledon in 2023. Routliffe too has a fine record, winning the US Open in 2023, making the Wimbledon final last year and winning the Tour Finals in 2024, too. Fair to say that this will likely be a tougher task than the first-round match. But Raducanu and Boulter have the game, if they click.
