This year marks a decade since comedy legend Victoria Wood’s tragic death, and to honour her memory, new documentary Becoming Victoria Wood is airing in cinemas - and coming to the small screen - next month. Giving us an insight into the woman behind the laughs, the film includes rarely shown archive footage recorded during the making of Dinnerladies, and reveals the insecurities and challenges Victoria faced behind the scenes, alongside accounts from the likes of Dawn French and Jennifer Saunders – and those who knew her best. Becoming Victoria Wood is in cinemas until 6 Feb and airs on U&GOLD later in the month.…

The extravagant nuptials of Adam Peaty and Holly Ramsay were nearly overshadowed by the groom’s fallout with his family – as it was even reportedly hinted at in proud dad-in-law Gordon’s speech. However, one person who is seemingly eager to avoid the drama is the celebrity chef’s wife Tana. The mum-of-six has refrained from sharing any social media posts about her daughter’s wedding, which took place on 27 December at Bath Abbey, and has not weighed in on the fallout so far. Those close to Tana claim she is ‘deeply upset’ by her new son-in-law’s rift with his mother Caroline – and it wouldn’t be surprising if she’s the one to smooth things over. Known as ‘the peacemaker’ among her inner circle, the 51-year-old has first-hand experience dealing with public…

No ‘Checking dilutes any sincerity’ Denise Marshall, 45, content creator I appreciate that not everyone is a tactile soul, but pausing to check it’s OK before hugging someone seems bonkers. It dilutes any sincerity. People don’t wrap their arms around just anyone. We read the room and judge in a nanosecond if that closeness will be welcome. We might make mistakes occasionally, but isn’t that worth it to live in a warmer world? Even if we did enlist cuddle protocol each time, would a decent friend honestly say, ‘No, thank you. Try again on my birthday’? One of the most uplifting things about the Obama era was Michelle Obama bringing the magic of hugs to the formalities of her role as First Lady. On her first UK visit, she hugged…

If January has you feeling sluggish, unmotivated or guilty about not joining a gym, you’re not alone. This time of year brings a lot of pressure: new routines, fresh goals and an endless stream of ‘transformation’ messages. But the truth is, you don’t need a gym membership to get moving, feel stronger or boost your wellbeing. ‘Exercise is simply any form of movement that supports your body and mind,’ says Tom Williams, Strength & Conditioning Coach at Pure Sports Medicine. ‘For some people, the idea of joining a gym feels intimidating or unrealistic, whether it’s because of cost, confidence or not knowing where to start. But movement can be as simple as walking a little further.’ Rebecca Birrane, Head of Programmes at The Ramblers, agrees. ‘Walking is one of the…

I don’t think these venues should be child-free as such, but perhaps there could be dedicated sections for families as with dogs and, formerly, smokers. Alexandra, Cheshire Pubs are pretty much child-free nowadays from 9pm until closing time, so a family-free venue wouldn’t make sense, financially or otherwise. Rickie, Manchester I’d love a family-free pub so I don’t have to hear babies crying, kids whining and shouting and I can enjoy my food and drink in peace. Doris, Sheffield To keep everyone happy, there could be certain times specially for families with babies and young children, and adult-only times, rather than a full-on child-free venue. Harriet, London…

Wash wisely Shampoo is designed to remove oils from your scalp, so applying it to the ends of your hair can leave them feeling dry and brittle. For a softer, healthier mane, massage a gentle shampoo like Method Simply Nourish Shampoo, £6.95, onto your scalp only, letting the suds cleanse your ends gently. Mix things up Hair needs variety, so switching shampoos can help maintain its health. If your locks get greasy quickly, try Living Proof Clarifying Detox Shampoo, £31, every two to three washes. It contains charcoal to deep-clean the scalp, remove build-up, and balance oil production. Less is more If your hair looks limp after styling, you might be using too much product. Instead, try distributing just a pea-sized amount of a multi-tasking serum, such as Typebea S.1…

Kitchen Organising the kitchen is a great way to reduce clutter, improve functionality and create an aesthetically pleasing space. One of the easiest ways to start is by decanting food into jars and baskets, and labelling them with luggage tags or simple stickers. Airtight containers keep foods fresh Office If you’re lucky enough to have a home office, keeping it organised is essential. It ensures everything you need is within easy reach, and a clean workspace tends to boost productivity, too. Even if you don’t have a dedicated office, keeping your work area tidy still helps keep everything in order. Bedroom From under-bed storage boxes to drawer tidies and clever organisational systems, making the most of every inch of space in your bedroom helps create a calm, streamlined environment. This…

After spreading thick icing on a chocolate cake, I stood back to admire my handiwork. ‘It looks perfect,’ I thought. But this was no ordinary baking session - because it was 3am and my husband Evan, then 38, and our two boys, Trace, then 15, and Waryk, then nine, were fast asleep, while I was wide awake with insomnia. I’d been that way for years, ever since the traumatic births of the boys. They were born prematurely, and this resulted in Waryk being diagnosed with cerebral palsy. It meant that growing up, he was in and out of hospital and relied on his wheelchair. I began to suffer intense flashbacks of the whirr of air ambulance helicopters and the smell of hospitals – I hadn’t had a proper night’s sleep…

Cosmopolitan cool Make Montréal your first call, a city where French charm meets urban swagger. The Hyatt Centric beside historic Viger Station is a sleek, central base with easy access to Old Montréal’s cobbles, riverside paths and museums. Begin at Bivouac, the terrace overlooking Quartier des Spectacles; during the Just for Laughs Festival in July, it’s a great spot to watch the crowds with a cocktail. Down in the Old Port, electric boat Le Petit Navire cruises quietly along the St Lawrence, passing landmarks like Habitat 67, Silo #5 and the Grand Quay. For calm, step onto Bota Bota’s floating saunas, then enjoy poutine at The Greenspot before catching a Cirque du Soleil show – a Montréal-born phenomenon. Views worth toasting An hour south of Montréal, the scenery shifts to…

FILM 28 Years Later: The Bone Temple Following on from the mind-boggling ending of the previous film, this sequel will (hopefully) give some clarity.

Tugging on my dress, I panicked as the material clung to me. It was my go-to outfit whenever I wasn’t feeling confident, because it always fit. Today, it was super-tight but I had nothing else to wear. I was a size 18-20 and I was going out in our local village in County Kerry, Ireland, with my husband Pat and some friends. It was November 2023 and my first outing since my 12-week-old baby Ada was born. When we arrived, we bumped into a group of people that we knew celebrating an engagement. Feeling very self-conscious, I sat in the corner all night wearing my jacket. I didn’t even get up to go to the toilet. The next day, I confessed to my mum about how down I was feeling…
