Sir Malcolm Henry Arnold CBE (21 October 1921 – 23 September 2006) was an English composer. His works feature music in many genres, including a cycle of nine symphonies, numerous concertos, concert works, chamber music, choral music and music for brass band and wind band. His style is tonal and rejoices in lively rhythms, brilliant orchestration, and an unabashed tunefulness. He wrote extensively for the theatre, with five ballets specially commissioned by the Royal Ballet, as well as two operas and a musical. He also produced scores for more than a hundred films, among these The Bridge on the River Kwai (1957), for which he won an Oscar.

Former football agent Eric Hall, famed for his "monster monster" catchphrase, has died at the age of 73.
Hall, known for his trademark cigar, represented several Premier League players in the 1990s, including Dennis Wise, Neil Ruddock and Tim Sherwood.
His death was announced by the radio station where he worked, Time 107.5FM.
Ex-footballer Stan Collymore paid tribute to Hall, saying on Twitter: "Larger than life, great great fun, sad to think Eric Hall has passed."
Former Tottenham Hotspur chairman Sir Alan Sugar called him a "real character".
Hall, who made his entry into the music business as a tea-boy alongside a young Elton John, promoted records for stars including Frank Sinatra and the Bay City Rollers.
He claimed to have launched the careers of Queen and Cockney Rebel before moving into football in 1986 following a chance nightclub meeting with Tottenham's Steve Perryman.

The main structure comprises five stories and about 45 to 60 rooms and was built over the course of three centuries.[5]

Little Mix singer Jesy Nelson is to take an "extended" break from the pop group for "private medical reasons", their publicist has said.
A statement didn't give any further details about the 29-year-old's condition.
It comes after Nelson recently missed the final of the girl group's BBC One talent show, and their hosting of the MTV European Music Awards.
Little Mix's latest album entered the UK chart at number two on Friday.
All six of the studio albums they have released since forming on The X Factor in 2011 have gone into the top five, and they have had four UK number one singles.
Harry Potter star Rupert Grint has broken Sir David Attenborough's record for the fastest time to reach a million Instagram followers.
The actor, who played Ron Weasley in all eight Harry Potter films, made his first post on 10 November, joking that he was "only 10 years late".
He reached the million mark in four hours and one minute.
That's 43 minutes quicker than it took Sir David when he joined in September, according to Guinness World Records.
