The diary of British explorer Henry Worsley has revealed the heart wrenching moment he realised he would not finish his journey after battling weeks of extreme exhaustion and dehydration. The 55-year-old former Army officer, from Fulham, London, was 71 days in to his attempt to become the first adventurer to cross Antarctica completely unsupported and unassisted, but collapsed in his tent on Friday and was rushed to hospital. The married father-of-two (pictured left in his tent, bottom right with David Beckham during the expedition and top right with the Duchess of Cambridge in 2012) died yesterday morning at a Chile hospital after succumbing to organ failure.

Dead whales washed up on British beaches attract graffiti, scavengers... and selfies: Ghoulish sightseers flock to see the 30-tonne corpses as FIFTH whale washes up
The RNLI has said it has found another 30-tonne corpse on marshes at Wainfleet on the Lincolnshire coast this afternoon - five miles from where three more were discovered yesterday. A build-up of methane gas caused one of the whales to explode today as marine biologists carrying out a post-mortem examination cut at its skin and blubber, with shocked witnesses describing a bang, a 'huge blast of air' followed by a foul stench.
Former Dragons' Den star Doug Richard 'paid a 13-year-old schoolgirl hundreds of pounds for sex after meeting her on a "sugar daddy" website'
Richard, of north London, denies three counts of engaging in sexual activity with a child, one count of causing a child to engage in sexual activity and a charge of paying for sexual services of a child. The millionaire (second from the left), who appeared on BBC's Dragons' Den in the first two series, allegedly arranged for a 13-year-old girl and a 15-year-old friend to join him at a £149-a-night apartment in central London. A prosecutor said today that Richard (pictured, right, today) is expected to claim he reasonably believed the girl was 16 or over at the time.
Jealous boyfriend is jailed for drowning his girlfriend's puppy in scalding bath because he said she gave it too much attention
Anthony Bruce, 19, of Newcastle-upon-Tyne, drowned Old English Sheepdog Benji in the bath behind his girlfriend Lauren Brattle's back because he was jealous about the time she dedicated to her pet. For months, he tormented the dog by locking it outside and feeding it toilet paper. However, Ms Brattle, 18 (pictured with Benji, and with Bruce, inset), was oblivious to what her controlling boyfriend was doing to her six-month-old puppy until the day he confessed to killing her beloved pet. Bruce was sentenced to 16 weeks in a Young Offender Institution at North Tyneside Magistrates' Court in December and banned from owning animals for life. Ms Brattle now says she wants nothing more to do with Bruce, and claims she should have listened to her nan who 'always said he had evil in his eyes'.

'I feel like my son is on a railway track blindfolded and I can't do anything about it': Father of Jihadi Jack's anguish as he denies his son has joined ISIS
John Letts (right) and his wife, Sally Lane, from Oxford, have spoken for the first time in two years since their son 'Jihadi Jack', 20 (inset, and left as a teenager), fled Britain and allegedly joined ISIS in Syria, where he has a wife and a son. Speaking from their terraced home in Oxford, the anguished parents said they monitor Jack's social media accounts 'every day' and described their ordeal as a 'nightmare'. Jack left the UK in September 2014 when he was just aged 18, sparking fears that he may have fled to join ISIS in Syria and his story hit headlines this week amid a mass of speculation that he had become a frontline fighter for the terror organisation and had settled in Fallujah, Iraq, with a wife and child. Mr Letts, a botanist, denied that his son had joined ISIS but said today: 'I feel like my son is walking on a railway track, blindfolded, and there's a train coming and he can't hear me, like I can't do anything about it. It has been a nightmare.'
Asylum seekers given free food and housing complain they are forced to wear coloured wristbands to collect meals
Asylum seekers in Cardiff, Wales, claim they are being denied food unless they wear specially marked bands - making them 'an easy target for abuse and harassment'. Those behind the scheme say it is the only way to ensure asylum seekers receive food or weekly allowance in the form of supermarket vouchers. But the move has sparked outrage amongst the migrant community, many of whom are being put up in Lynx House - a B&B; now so overrun by refugees the entire road has now been dubbed 'Asylum Street'.
