Newspaper scandal still top news story

The biggest news story in the UK is still about the journalists who listened to people's mobile phone voicemails. The story has got much bigger this week and now involves London's police force and the Government.
It's very complicated. But London's chief police officer and a very senior colleague have both resigned this week because of the scandal. The Government is involved because the Prime Minister hired a journalist who edited the newspaper involved in the scandal as his press adviser.
This week Rupert Murdoch, whose media company owns the newspaper at the heart of the story, gave evidence to members of parliament. Mr Murdoch, who is 80, was attacked by a protester with a "pie" made of foam. The protester was himself hit by Mr Murdoch's Chinese-born wife. This episode was very popular on the news reports and You Tube.

Surprising golf winner

The Open, played in Britain, is one of the biggest golf tournaments. It was won this week by Darren Clarke, a player from Northern Ireland. He is 42 years old but it was the first major competition he has won.
The newspapers loved the story of Mr Clarke's win for several reasons. The first was that he is an old-fashioned sportsman and celebrated with Guinness beer and cigars. The second is that Mr Clarke's wife died in 2006, leaving him with two young boys.
Now there are calls for the Open to be played at Mr Clarke's home course at Portrush in Northern Ireland. Mr Clarke said: "Friends and family say, get out there and practise and keep going, keep going, keep going, and that's why I'm sitting here now."
