Abstract:We prove that, assuming \emph{CH}, if $X$ is a space with $\aleph_1$-calibre and a~zeroset diagonal, then $X$ is submetrizable. This gives a consistent positive answer to the question of Buzyakova in {\it Observations on spaces with zeroset or regular $G_\delta$-diagonals\/}, Comment. Math. Univ. Carolin. {\bf 46} (2005), no.~3, 469--473. We also make some observations on spaces with $\aleph_1$-calibre.
Keywords: $\aleph_1$-calibre; star countable; zeroset diagonal
