At the moment, the most recent item is number five on the list and the five most recent posts are muddled up in the top ten.
the sorting has been solved but i think you might like this feed:

That certainly grabs items from a wider range of the BBC News pages, although not everything gets there immediately and I'd have to add a filter to ease out the Welsh language updates that creep in every now and again (http://www.bbc.co.uk/newyddion/26151252) - no matter how spectacular the images or what sense Google translate makes of the text.
