RAF chief set to be new head of armed forces
The head of the RAF is set to be appointed as the new chief of the British armed forces, according to reports. Air Chief Marshal Sir Richard Knighton is thought to be in line to be the next Chief of Defence Staff. The position is currently held by Admiral Sir Tony Radakin, who has been in the role since 2021. According to his biography on the Government website, Sir Richard joined the RAF in 1989 as a university cadet, and served as deputy chief of the defence staff from 2019 to 2022. The appointment comes as the Government has pledged to increase defence spending in the UK to 2.5% of gross domestic product on defence from April 2027, with a goal of increasing that to 3% over the next parliament, a timetable which could stretch to 2034. The Ministry of Defence said: 'This is speculation. The appointment process is ongoing and any announcement will be made in the usual way.'

Love Island star Sophie Lee's reality star ex-boyfriend Ouzy See is 'gutted' the model is going on the show, sources claim. Ouzy appeared on Love Island in 2023 and struck up a romance with Kady McDermott - before they went their separate ways. The footballer, 30, is said to have been 'blindsided' by Sophie's, 29, signing to the show because of their 'unfinished business'. A friend reportedly told The Sun: 'Ouzy was really shocked and blindsided to see Sophie had signed up for Love Island. 'He was gutted because he feels like there is still unfinished business between the two of them. While they aren't dating anymore, he thinks she's an amazing girl and they ended on good terms. From A-list scandals and red carpet mishaps to exclusive pictures and viral moments, subscribe to the DailyMail's new Showbiz newsletter to stay in the loop. 'It's weird for anyone though knowing your ex is about to go on Love Island and could fall for someone else on TV.' MailOnline has contacted Ouzy for comment. The former couple made a join appearance at the Beauty Awards in 2023, where the spoke about their budding romance. He told the publication on the red carpet: 'It's going really well. She's inspirational. We've been dating for a few months.' Sophie chimed: 'He's really kind, that's my favourite thing about him.' The stunning British influencer almost lost her life in a horrifying fire-breathing accident. Sophie will fly to the picturesque Spanish island for Love Island's twelfth series following a brush with death when she was 22. Sophie had been working as a firebreather for 18-months before she suffered horrific burns to her face and chest during a freak accident in the United States. She was performing at a huge event in Chicago when the venue's air conditioning blew flames she was expelling from her mouth back into her face, leaving her with serious, life-threatening burns. Sophie has since turned to modelling and influencing and has even written a book about her experience. She also works with Katie Piper 's foundation, which supports people living with burns and scars. The new series will kick off on Monday 9th June, one week later than previous years. The last season of the ITV dating programme - which was the second All Stars version - ended in February, and saw Gabby Allen and Casey O'Gorman crowned champions, before their split earlier this month. Fans will be happy to know that it's not long before they will get their Love Island fix. A post shared on ITV's social media featured a snap unveiling the return date, along with the caption: 'Mark your calendar, you're invited to this year's hottest meeting... 'Agenda: Initial coupling, strategic navigation of red flags, and identification of potential long-term partnerships.' The first trailer for the new series was released on Monday, and showed host Maya Jama in a meeting with Love Island bosses, in the hope of making the show's 10th Anniversary series its most explosive yet. Maya - who starting hosting the show in 2023 - is seen in a boardroom called Love Island HQ and says: 'Right, this year Love Island needs something bigger, something bolder. I want ideas.' One person asks: 'Move it to the Isle of Wight?' Another asks: 'What if we turn it into musical?' leading Maya to sassily question the move with 'Why?' Another says in Japanese: 'Love Island, on ice?' to which Maya replies: 'Never!' Unhappy with all the suggestions, Maya pushes the paper off her desk and shouts: 'No!' She adds: 'This year I want more drama, more bombshells, more break-ups, more make-ups. I want more twists. I want more twists than ever.'

CHRISTOPHER STEVENS reviews The Jackal Speaks: From his jail cell, terrorist Carlos the Jackal tells of his plan to nuke France
The Jackal Speaks (BBC4) As romantic gestures go, none could be more dramatic. When Carlos the Jackal's girlfriend, terrorist Magdalena Kopp, was jailed, he threatened to blow up nuclear power stations until she was released. To convince the French authorities this was no hoax, he sent a letter signed with his own fingerprint. At the time, in 1982, he was the world's most wanted man, with a rocket attack at Orly Airport in Paris among his long tally of crimes. At first, the French refused to negotiate, even after Carlos bombed a train and a newspaper office. But when they realised that his private terror network — funded by huge paydays from Libya's Colonel Gaddafi and other Arab dictators — really could destroy an atomic reactor, they caved in. Kopp, a former member of the Baader-Meinhof gang, was freed. Shortly after that, she married Carlos in Lebanon. 'I could have killed 100,000 people, irradiated half the country,' he boasted, in The Jackal Speaks. It's the sort of fantastical coup that Eddie Redmayne, as an international hitman in Sky Atlantic's thriller The Day Of The Jackal, might pull off. This documentary, produced by an Israeli company, set out to debunk the myths around the Jackal, now 75 and a prisoner in a French jail for the past 30 years. It made much of his vanity, his alcoholism and his slow slide into irrelevance as the fad for Communist revolutions died out. But it forgot that Carlos — whose real name is Ilich Ramirez Sanchez — is still a global hero and a revered freedom fighter . . . in his own mind. This 90-minute film was based around phone interviews taped with the assassin from his cell in solitary confinement. Experts including Carlos's biographer Dr Daniela Richterova and his former controller in the Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine, Bassam Abu Sharif, gave their analysis of his personality: narcissistic, reckless, pleasure-loving, needy for praise and attention. The problem is, if you allow a man like that to tell his own life story, he will talk about all the wrong bits. Carlos isn't interested in discussing how he planned his kills: the logistics seem to bore him. And he certainly doesn't care about the dozens of people he killed — their lives are meaningless to him. Instead, there was a lot of boasting: 'I was the best shot, I shot better than anybody else.' And he spent a long time reminiscing about his parents and his childhood in Caracas, Venezuela. It was half an hour before we heard about the first assassination attempt, when he walked into a house in St John's Wood, London, and shot the chairman of M&S, Joseph Sieff, in the face. Incredibly, Sieff — who was also vice president of the British Zionist Federation, survived. The bullet was deflected by his teeth. 'Good advert for the Milk Marketing Board,' he joked. Now there's a line that belongs in a thriller.
