After 30 years - a wait that was nigh-on unimaginable to the average fan when it last happened - Liverpool have been crowned English football's champions. Manchester City's 2-1 defeat at Chelsea left Jurgen Klopp's team with an unassailable points lead. "I have no words. It's unbelievable," Klopp told Sky Sports, as his players celebrated as a team after watching events from Stamford Bridge on TV. "I haven't waited 30 years, I have been here for four-and-a-half years, but it is quite an achievement," he added. BBC Sport's chief football writer Phil McNulty has the inside story on how the German turned the club from "doubters" into champions for a 19th time.

It has taken three decades, 1,149 matches and an outlay of £1.47bn on nearly 22 full teams of players to bring the title back to Anfield, only for a pandemic to put the prospect at risk. Its lockdown-delayed confirmation sparked celebrations on the streets of Liverpool. Roads around the club's Anfield stadium were closed within half an hour of the result being confirmed, as about 2,000 fans had gathered outside. However, police did not attempt to disperse them, saying things were largely "good natured". Assistant Chief Constable Rob Carden praised the "overwhelming majority" for recognising it was "not the time to gather".

They are due to have "initial operating capability" by December but a spending watchdog has concerns about how the government will cover the cost of operating the UK's two new £3bn aircraft carriers. The Ministry of Defence is yet to commit to funding enough Lightning II fighter jets to sustain the ships over their expected 50-year operating life, the National Audit Office says. Meanwhile, the Royal Navy has only one supply ship able to keep the carriers stocked with food and ammunition. It's uncertain that either new ship will be fully ready by 2028, when the navy's solitary operational carrier is due to be taken out of service. The MoD says it is committed to investing in the carriers, which remain "on track".

A matter of months ago, Rebecca Long-Bailey was vying with Sir Keir Starmer for the Labour leadership. On Thursday, she was sacked by him as shadow education secretary after retweeting a newspaper interview with actress Maxine Peake, which Sir Keir said contained an anti-Semitic conspiracy theory. Mrs Long-Bailey later said she had not meant to endorse all aspects of the article. But while Jewish groups and some MPs welcomed Sir Keir's decision, her allies on the party's left said it was an overreaction. The Labour leader will face MPs about their concerns later. Our political editor Laura Kuenssberg examines whether Sir Keir's decisive move risks reopening internal party tensions.

Most of the papers' early editions make at least some reference to what the i calls "chaos on the beaches" on their front pages, after many Britons spent the hottest day of the year so far at the coast. "Where isn't wally?" asks the Metro, next to a photo of a rammed beach at Bournemouth, where local authorities declared a "major incident". The Times reports a warning from England's chief medical officer, Chris Whitty, that coronavirus will flare up again if people do not enjoy summer more responsibly. "Coastal beauty spots around the country saw drunken fights amid blatant flouting of social distancing rules by crowds of young revellers," the Daily Mail reports. And the rubbish left behind - 33 tonnes of it, according to the Daily Star - leaves its front page to ask: "Were you raised by wolves?" Read the review.

The Eurovision Song Contest might have been called off this year but Will Ferrell and Rachel McAdams are bringing the competition to life in a new comedy for Netflix. The duo play hopeful-but-hopeless Icelandic duo Fire Saga as they bid to win the title. Aiming for realism, the producers enlisted Savan Kotecha - who's written songs for Ariana Grande and Ellie Goulding - to come up with the material. Newsbeat hears from him.  As it's Friday, you could  take on our quiz of the week's news. Or, if you fancy delving deeper into your memory, the BBC Archive's quiz serves up 10 new questions at random every hour.
