Peter Allen and Aasmah Mir, with news of organs taken without consent, Ireland's bail out pressure, and Cameron on young carers.

Royal Wedding reaction from across the UK, as Clarence House announces that Prince William and Kate Middleton will tie the knot next year.

In the day's other news, a report into the removal of body organs and tissue without consent for analysis at nuclear laboratories is being published. We hear what Energy Secretary Chris Huhne has to say to the House of Commons, and get the latest from a press conference in Cumbria, where the report's author, Michael Redfern QC, is speaking.

There's the latest on the Guantanamo Bay detainees' out of court payout from the government, with news of what Ken Clarke has said in his evidence to Joint Committee on Human Rights.

Also on the programme, Ireland is facing intense European pressure to accept a massive financial bail out - not just to rescue the Irish economy but to save the single currency itself. We have the latest from our reporters in Dublin and Brussels.

And there's an interview with David Cameron about young carers, as research suggests the number of young people caring for family members has been underestimated.
