Has Bernie Ecclestone got the worst sons-in-law in Britain? One's been charged with aiding a drug trafficker while the other is being sued for battery - no wonder the F1 boss's hair is so white!

Has Bernie Ecclestone got the worst sons-in-law in Britain?

Formula One's Bernie Ecclestone's daughters, Tamara and Petra, have made quite extraordinary choices when it comes to their husbands. How concerned should he be, asks ALISON BOSHOFF? Tamara's chosen life partner, Essex boy Jay Rutland (pictured left), is facing up to seven years in prison. He has been arrested and charged with assisting James Tarrant, a drugs trafficker, in 2010 - which is before he and heiress Tamara met. Rutland denies the allegations. Meanwhile, Petra's other half is the podgy-faced, make-up-wearing eccentric James Stunt (right), who insists on travelling everywhere with a retinue of bodyguards and a cavalcade of cars. Both men are partial to flashy cars, expensive watches, and, thanks to their wives, own palatial homes (pictured). A source claims although Bernie is on civilised terms with Jay and James, he is suspicious of both of these men - and is increasingly worried about what is going on.

Trials on the first patients are expected within two years and the co-author of the study, Professor Charles Swanton, said: 'Do we think it's going to work? I hope this is going to result in improvements in survival outcomes. If this doesn't work I'll probably hang my up hat and do something else.'

A fat woman sitting on a man's face, the obscene picture Madonna posted online just hours before London judge orders her and Guy Ritchie to settle differences over where their son Rocco lives 

Madonna uses child kidnap law in battle with Guy Ritchie over Rocco

From a drawing of a curvaceous woman sitting on a man's face (left) to a topless back shot of herself (right), Madonna has lashed out at critics of her custody battle by posting a series of explicit pictures. The star has been embroiled in a legal battle with Guy Ritchie - who she divorced in 2008 - over their son Rocco, which has resulted in a judge urging the pair to sort their differences themselves. Prior to yesterday's court hearing, the 57-year-old singer posted a string of explicit Instagram posts including a graphic drawing of a curvy woman squatting over a man's face which was captioned: 'Knowledge is power'. Her rant came just before Mr Justice Alistair MacDonald, who is overseeing the custody case at the High Court in London, said it was 'highly unfortunate and deeply regrettable' that she and Ritchie had to resort to lawyers over their 15-year-old son (inset with Ritchie).

Aerial photos show huge tent city at a migrant camp in Greece 

With scores of tents pitched close together on a muddy field and snaking queues of people waiting in line for food, you could be forgiven for thinking these aerial photos show a music festival in full swing. But, instead of showing the likes of Glastonbury, these bird's-eye view photographs actually show a makeshift migrant camp which has sprung up in the northern Greek village of Idomeni, near the Macedonian border. At least 10,000 men, women and children have been camped for days in the squalid conditions at the Idomeni border crossing, with hundreds more arriving every single day. The first two refugee camps are now so full that thousands have set up tents in fields nearby, living in appalling conditions. Hundreds have been seen queuing for hundreds of yards as they desperately wait to receive food distributed by a non-governmental organisation.
