THANKS to a courageous mother and daughter this has been a landmark week in the long-running campaign for justice for Irish women.

The daughter of rape victim Fiona Doyle has said her mother has paved the way for victims everywhere.

Actress Sylvia Kristel, the Dutch star of the hit 1970s erotic film Emmanuelle, has died of cancer aged 60.

SHE was once the object of millions of male fantasies.
