Underage teenagers are to be banned from using sunbeds. Former tanning fan Mandi Welsh tells us in hour two how she had a two inch square piece of skin removed from her face after being diagnosed with malignant melanoma. It will be four years before she can get the all clear.
It's a big sporting weekend - we speak to Rory McIlroy's coach Michael Bannon, as McIlroy leads at the US Masters golf. And it's the Grand National too - our guest is Daryl Jacob, the jockey riding Alex Ferguson's horse at Aintree.
