Sports psychologist Dr Josephine Perry has some insight into what makes athletes tick, but wasn't prepared for what happened to her yesterday morning when she was doing laps at a swimming pool.

On Thursday it'll be 100 years since the Plumage Act banned the importation of feathers for use in hat-making. At its peak in the late 1800s, the trade in plumage was placing over 60 bird species at risk of extinction.

Beccy Speight from the RSPB is hoping a series of campaigns will bring Emily Williamson's achievements back to life.

New research out today from University College London suggests England should follow their lead.
