It was a short stay in the top flight for the Rams, who were relegated after an appalling season. West Brom, meanwhile, have no need of the play-offs this year, having clinched automatic promotion.

Gary Lineker presents live coverage from the third round of the 2008 PGA Championship at Wentworth.

Round three last year was a nightmare for Padraig Harrington when five bogeys in the first 11 holes scuppered his hopes of landing a £1.2m jackpot, awarded for doing the Irish Open-PGA Championship double in consecutive weeks. Wentworth resident Ernie Els knows the course like the back of his hand but he had a wildly erratic third round last year – including two eagles, a double bogey and a triple bogey, which came after he four-putted on the seventh hole.

 Andy Abraham flies the flag for
the UK Belgrade beckons as Andy Abraham flies the flag for the UK in the 53rd annual Eurovision Song Contest. Andy and his self-penned funky love song, Even If, were chosen by the UK public in Eurovision – Your Decision after he fought off stiff competition from Michelle Gayle, The Revelations, LoveShy, Rob McVeigh and Simona Armstrong. After losing his head-to-head sing-off, Andy was saved by Sir Terry Wogan's "wild card", which put him through to the public phone vote. Having triumphed, Andy is now preparing to sing for glory at this year's Eurovision Song Contest.

Eurovision veteran Sir Terry Wogan returns to provide his usual irreverent commentary.

A record 43 countries will compete this year and, for the first time, the Contest will feature two semi-finals. Ten countries from each semi-final will go through to the final, along with the big four – the United Kingdom, Germany, France and Spain – and last year's winners, Serbia.
Ìý
This year's entries will be sung in over 20 different languages and range in style from heavy rock to classic ballads, via Europop from Ireland's winged wannabe winner, Dustin the Turkey. Two countries – Azerbaijan and San Marino – are participating for the first time.

Flash Louis and his friends are working hard and missing each other, as Â鶹Éç Switch's observational documentary series following six talented young friends in London trying to make it in their chosen fields of fashion, music, design, acting and DJ-ing continues.

Daisy is settling into her life in New York, although she is finding not being a size zero can be a problem on the runways. "I've only got two shows," says Daisy, "which is fine, but it is just because I've got boobs and a bum. And I like them, so I'm not getting rid of them."
Ìý
Back in London, Kesh is getting ready for her debut appearance at London Fashion Week. She's been booked to show her collection at the MAN Top Man fashion show but has got only 10 days to put her collection together from scratch. It's lucky she has 68,000 MySpace friends she can turn to for support. Meanwhile, Blondelle are getting nervous about the Brit Awards after-party gig and set themselves the task of doing the best performance ever.
Ìý
Back in New York, Daisy gives viewers a guided tour of her New York pad. She has well and truly flown the nest, so it is ironic that Louis has to move back home with his parents – it makes him feel like he's taking a huge step backwards. "I look at people around me and they're just doing more than I am," says Louis. "Daisy's travelling the globe, Will's practising every day with his band and I just get the feeling that I'm not as busy as I should be."
Ìý
Before long Louis hits on an idea, but will his new plan of being a club promoter get him back on track? As the six make their way in the careers they love the most, will they have what it takes to make it happen?
