The Queen's son, pictured, erupted in fury when two heavily-armed policemen shouted at him to 'verify his identity' as he walked in broad daylight. A royal source said: 'He was incredibly, incredibly angry. It was very much a case of guns being pointed at him and "halt who goes there".' The fifth-in-line to the throne stood his ground and was said to have 'made his thoughts plain' during the highly-charged confrontation that followed. The incident at around 6pm on Wednesday came less than 48 hours after a break-in at the Queen's home.

Village 'liberated' by Syrian rebels... who then forced Christians to convert to Islam
Terrified Christians claim Syrian rebels ordered them to convert to Islam on pain of death when they 'liberated' their ancient village. Opposition forces including fighters linked to Al Qaeda gained temporary control of the village of Maaloula after fighting with regime forces. The reports have reignited fears about western support for the rebel groups, which are increasingly being infiiltrated by Islamic extremists. A resident of the village said the rebels shouted 'Allahu Akbar' which means 'God is great' before attacking Christian homes and churches shortly after moving into the area.

What a difference three days make! Week of extremes as Britain sees blazing sunshine followed by blizzards (but the usual autumn drizzle is on its way)
After last week’s mini-heatwave, which culminated in 30C heat, the summer was washed away by dramatic floods in the North and hail storms in the South.
