Government to review airport drop-off charges after sharp increase

BBC News

Airport drop-off charges are to be reviewed by the government following sharp price increases in recent years. Prices at major UK airports have risen by a third since the summer of 2025 on average, according to one analysis, with Gatwick and Stansted drop-off charges found to be the most expensive, jumping from £7 to £10. Such charges at Edinburgh Airport have risen from £6 to £8.50, while fees at Bournemouth increased from £5 to £8, the same price as Leeds Bradford and London City. The Department for Transport confirmed it had committed to a review, saying it was vital to ensure travel remains accessible and that passengers are treated fairly. The government added it hoped airports would exercise restraint on rises, particularly where there are limited public transport alternatives.

Who will win title? The big prediction special

BBC News

Image caption, Will Pep Guardiola or Mikel Arteta be lifting the Premier League trophy next month? With five games to go, Manchester City and Arsenal are only separated on goals scored at the top of the Premier League table. It's a new league now, says Gunners boss Mikel Arteta, whose side had been top of the table for 209 days until Wednesday. Manchester City's 2-1 win over Arsenal on Sunday boosted their hopes - and a 1-0 victory at Burnley on Wednesday sent them top. Who is going to win the title now?


Sutton's predictions v Race Across the World podcast host Alfie Watts

BBC News

Manchester City already hold the record for most consecutive FA Cup semi-finals - eight between 2019 and 2026 - but can they become the first team to reach four finals in a row? That is their target when they play Championship side Southampton at Wembley on Saturday at 17:15 BST, live on BBC One and Radio 5 Live. It will be interesting to see whether City boss Pep Guardiola changes his team up much, said BBC Sport football expert Chris Sutton. They don't play again until they go to Everton on 4 May, so I don't think he will. But, whoever Pep picks, he will be looking for his team to connect again, the way they were playing before they played Burnley . As well as the FA Cup, Sutton is making predictions for all 380 Premier League games this season, against AI, BBC Sport readers and a variety of guests. For all of this weekend's games, he takes on Tottenham fan Alfie Watts, co-host of the Race Across the World: The Detour visual podcast.


Sutton's predictions v Crookhaven stars Amari Bacchus & Genesis Lynea

BBC News

Two of the teams fighting relegation meet on Sunday when Tottenham host Nottingham Forest, but are there more than just points at stake? If we do get a winner here, it is a huge boost for that team psychologically going into the international break, said BBC Sport football expert Chris Sutton. But, for the losing manager, it could mean the sack. That applies to Forest's Vitor Pereira as well as Igor Tudor at Spurs - this is a classic game where triumph or disaster awaits both clubs. Sutton is making predictions for all 380 Premier League games this season, against AI, BBC Sport readers and a variety of guests. His guests for week 31 are Amari Bacchus and Genesis Lynea, stars of new CBBC drama series Crookhaven. Crookhaven begins with a double bill on Sunday, 22 March at 15:05 GMT on BBC One and BBC iPlayer, and at 17:25 on CBBC. The full series will be available to watch on BBC iPlayer from this date.


Games with loot boxes to get minimum 16 age rating across Europe

BBC News

Games which feature loot boxes will soon be given an age rating of 16 across Europe, including in the UK, under a host of changes by the European video game ratings organisation. The Pan-European Game Information body (PEGI)'s age ratings are displayed on games sold in the UK and other countries in Europe to indicate their suitability for children of different ages. Loot boxes are an in-game feature allowing players to buy random mystery items with real or virtual currency, but recent research has found they blur the line between gaming and gambling. The new ratings, taking effect from June, could see games containing loot box systems, such as EA Sports FC, receive a much higher age rating. The PEGI system is used in 38 countries to help consumers and particularly parents make informed decisions about the games they purchase.



Sutton's predictions v 'Roy Keane' - Saipan star Hardwicke

BBC News

Is this AI's worst prediction yet? Chris Sutton's guest this week, actor Éanna Hardwicke, plays Roy Keane in Saipan - a new film about the former Manchester United captain's infamous fallout with Republic of Ireland manager Mick McCarthy before the 2002 World Cup. It is in cinemas from Friday. Naturally, we asked AI who would play Sutton if a film were ever made about him. The best fit, apparently, is Hollywood heartthrob Tom Hardy - who is four inches shorter than BBC Sport football expert Sutton but is AI's top choice for the role because he is known for portraying tough, brooding characters with emotional depth. That just shows how way off the mark AI is, said Sutton. But I'm happy with Tom Hardy, even though he is not tall enough.


'Ridiculous amount of games' - has Haaland played too much football?

BBC News

'Ridiculous amount of games' - has Haaland played too much football? The robot is malfunctioning and in need of a reset. Erling Haaland made a blistering start to the season but that prolific run of form has suffered a glitch. Though the Manchester City and Norway striker has scored a remarkable 39 goals in just 36 games for club and country this season, he has hit a sticky patch of form with only one goal in his past eight games. This has coincided with Pep Guardiola's men falling off the pace in the Premier League title race and suffering a monumental shock at Bodo/Glimt in the Champions League.
