South Africa church collapses
At least 13 people have died when a church collapsed at the start of an Easter service
At least 13 people have died when a wall collapsed in South Africa at the start of an Easter service at a Pentecostal church. Emergency services said that 29 people were rushed to hospital after the collapse in the coastal province of KwaZulu-Natal. We get the latest update from a local reporter.
And we hear about Lyra McKee, the journalist who was shot dead during rioting in Northern Ireland on Thursday night.
Also we speak to Manal al-Sharif, a Saudi Arabian woman who was one of the leading figures advocating for women to drive in the Kingdom. She's now driving across the US to raise awareness of the women still imprisoned in Saudi Arabia.
