Actress Angelina Jolie left some audience members baffled when she greeted Derby actor Jack O'Connell with "ay up me duck" at an awards ceremony.

She spoke in a Derby accent and introduced him with the East Midlands phrase as she presented him with an award at the Hollywood Film Awards.

Some television viewers tweeted in delight while others did not understand why she was talking about a duck.

Former Chelsea, Crystal Palace and Birmingham City striker Mikael Forssell was forced to miss training on Tuesday - because of a cat.

The 33-year-old, now with Bundesliga 2 club VfL Bochum was unable to get to his car because a group of felines were camped by the door.

Forssell is allergic to cats.

It's a very nice looking Persian.  I'd be more worried about the cat being near the car.  Is Forsell actually "ailurophobic" (pathological fear of cats) rather than allergic.  I knew someone once who was.  She was a psychologist - went on to write a sex therapy column for a newspaper!
