1) Churchill Hospital chemotherapy treatment 'unsustainable'

Theresa May was challenged over the leaked Oxford hospital memo at Prime Minister's Questions

National attention was focused on the Churchill Hospital in Oxford this week when a senior doctor said cancer care at the centre was becoming "unsustainable".

The memo to staff, which was leaked to The Times, suggested chemotherapy cycles could be cut.

In it the head of chemotherapy, Dr Andrew Weaver, says patients face delays as nurse numbers were about 40% down.

The matter was raised in Prime Minister's Questions, but a hospital trust spokesman stressed no decisions had been made.

A home that was built on a parking space has been valued by estate agents at £300,000.

The "micro-house" in Wheatley, Oxfordshire, is 36 square metres in size, offering about the same amount of space as a London Underground carriage.

It was built by Mark Keely, who felt it could appeal to people who were looking to move on from living with parents.

3) Radiohead deny suing Lana Del Rey

However, they are seeking credit on Del Rey's song Get Free, which they say copies elements of Radiohead's Creep.
