The total number of people who have died in the UK is now 1,235 after a further 207 people died after testing positive for coronavirus.

The regulations bring Northern Ireland into line with the rest of the UK.
The new rules include the ability to force businesses to shut and a crackdown on people who leave their homes without a "reasonable excuse".
Businesses that fail to comply can be fined over £5,000 with a fine of over £960 for people who fail to heed the regulations.
