Parents Tony Richardson and Samantha Smyth from Poole in Dorset revealed why they named their new daughter Kia, instead of Tilley as planned, reported the Press Association.

The baby was born in the back seat of a Kia Carens car en route to Poole hospital.

Barbie the doll has been given a makeover and kitted out in traditional Islamic women's dress as part of an exhibition to celebrate her 50th birthday, said The Sun. More than 500 Barbies have been dressed in burkas by Italian designer Eliana Lorena for the exhibition, backed by makers Mattel, and are to be auctioned by Sotheby's to raise money for Save the Children.
