BIG BROTHER'S FIRST BIRTH
A woman has given birth in front of the cameras on the Dutch version of Big Brother.
Tanja - a contestant on the reality TV programme - gave birth to a healthy daughter.

She is hoping the footage will boost her chances of winning the programme's 400,000 euros prize.
The birth will be allowed to be shown on TV after talks between the producers and the Social Affairs Ministry.
"It will not show any explicit scenes," said Stephanie Dekker, from the Talpa network.
She said medical and educational TV programmes had shown more graphic footage of births.
The government has also set down guidelines for producers to abide by in televising the new baby.
This includes only showing the baby on air for a maximum of eight hours over the duration of the show, which ends on December 22.
She must also stay in a room where cameras are not allowed, and where her mother and grandparents may be with her in private.
