Holby City star Rosie Marcel has described the "amazing" moment she discovered she was pregnant two days before she was due to start IVF treatment.

The actress and her husband Ben Stacey turned to IVF after a miscarriage nine months ago.

She told Hello! Magazine: "It was an amazing feeling, crazy. Literally 48 hours before I started injections, I was pregnant.

"I had done so many pregnancy tests during the eight months we'd been trying hard for a baby that I fully expected it to come back negative as it always did."

The 37-year-old star had gone through the pain of the miscarriage at the same time as her character, Doctor Jac Naylor, was giving birth on screen in the hospital drama.

A nine-year-old boy born without ears has being given a new set by surgeons. They used cartilage from his ribs to create them.

Clifford Hartland died on at the age of 101, and his 97-year-old wife Marjorie passed away just 14 hours later.

Today we have been with Kurdish Peshmerga near Irbil, where forces are keeping watch on Islamic State fighters just 500 metres away.
