Netflix is getting ready to air the much-anticipated film adaptation of The Thursday Murder Club, and if the trailer is anything to go by, we are in for a suspense-filled treat. The movie is based on the first instalment of the record-breaking and best-selling series of novels by Richard Osman, and has a star-studded line-up bringing the characters to life. The plot follows four retirees – Helen Mirren as Elizabeth, Pierce Brosnan as Ron, Celia Imrie as Joyce, and Ben Kingsley as Ibrahim – who spend their time solving cold case murders for fun, before an unexplained death happens on their doorstep and they have to use their detective skills for real. The A-list credits don't stop there, as it's been directed by Chris Columbus of Home Alone and Harry…

David Beckham has finally been awarded a knighthood in King Charles's Birthday Honours, with him becoming a ‘Sir’, while his wife Victoria will be known as Lady Beckham. The former England football captain has long had ties with the royal family. He and Victoria, both 50, attended both Prince William and Prince Harry's weddings in 2011 and 2018, and he was appointed an OBE (an officer of the Order of the British Empire) in 2003 for his services to football. David was first nominated for a knighthood back in 2011, after he helped secure the London 2012 Olympics. However, emails from him were later leaked, where he criticised the honours system and committee. One email expressed his irritation of a lack of a knighthood, as it allegedly said, ‘It is…

DIY SOS star Nick Knowles, 62, has tied the knot with his new wife Katie, 34. The happy couple got married on 7 June at Braxted Park Estate, where guests were greeted with a sign that cheekily said, ‘Welcome to Katie's wedding featuring TV's Nick Knowles.’ Mum-of-two Katie stunned in an eye-catching white gown with blue florals, while Nick looked dapper in a pink suit. It seemed like no expense was spared on the big day, which featured a carnival dancer, live band, and reportedly cost six figures. ‘There's life in the old dog yet,’ Nick said last year.…

From across the function room, I spotted a familiar grin. Gary Anderson and I had been at school together and, aged 13, we'd been regular partners in home economics. While 20-odd years had passed since then, I'd have recognised his smile anywhere. Now it was 2016 and I'd barely reached Gary's side when he clocked me and we both launched into the party trick we'd had at school – doing the rap Tom Hanks performed in the film Big! ‘You still know it!’ he chuckled. Gary and I had separately signed up to take part in something called Strictly Inverness, which was why we were both in the function room at the local ice-rink. Based on the TV show Strictly Come Dancing, couples spent five months learning a dance before taking…

Former Pussycat Doll Nicole, 46, is currently starring in Sunset BLVD. on Broadway and is set to tie the knot with Thom, 40, when her critically-acclaimed run finishes next month.

Jodie Prenger first appeared on our screens back in 2006, when she was crowned winner of the second series of The Biggest Loser after shifting a whopping 18st – dropping from a size 22 to a size 14. But it was two years later in 2008 that she truly won the hearts of the nation, landing the role of Nancy in the West End revival of Oliver! during Andrew Lloyd Webber's talent show I'd Do Anything. These days, Jodie, 45, still has a busy career. As well as performing on stage in productions such as One Man, Two Guvnors, she has been playing Glenda Shuttleworth on Coronation Street since 2022.

Raymond Bernard, affectionately known by many as ‘Moses’, had lived in Grenfell for 30 years. He died in the blaze. His sisters Bernie and Jackie remember him as ‘a big calypso fan, whose smile you'd melt into’. He lived on the 23rd floor, and gave several people refuge in his flat during the fire when they could no longer escape. Bernie and Jackie say, ‘Ray was disabled but there was no plan in place to evacuate disabled residents. He was 63 years old when he died. He had let women and children on his bed and his body was found at the foot on the floor, he was their comforter. Until human lives mean more than profit, nothing is going to change – there are thousands of buildings that still…

I don't want to meet his son Q My husband had an affair just after we had our first baby. The other woman got pregnant and I found out when she was about to give birth as I saw messages on his phone. I went mad, and said we were done. He begged me to forgive him and I eventually gave in. One of the conditions of us working it out was that I didn't want to meet or ever hear about the child. He pays child-support for this kid, and sees him every other week at my husband's mum's place. And that's how it's been for the last 10 years. We went on to have another daughter who's now eight and our eldest is 11. He thinks the kids…

TV presenter Ulrika Jonsson has described herself as an alcoholic and revealed she's been sober for over a year after telling a friend, ‘I can't do this any more.’ Opening up about her decision to quit drinking, Ulrika, 57, said that it ‘was a hangover day, much like any other’ but that ‘something made me reach out for help’. She described herself as a ‘binge drinker who drank to black out’, and detailed how she would drink neat rum at 11am. Ulrika also shared a before and after selfie on Instagram and wrote alongside, ‘No fanfare, no medal, no trophy.

Over the past five years, the rift between Princes William and Harry and their wives Kate Middleton and Meghan Markle has continued to grow, with little sign of repair. But now, their wider family appear to have had enough, as insiders tell Bella that Princess Diana's relatives are taking action in a bid to reunite the warring brothers. Members of the Spencer family – including their uncle Earl Spencer – are understood to have stepped in, discreetly working behind the scenes to negotiate a face-to-face meeting between William, 42, and Harry, 40, whose relationship remains deeply strained. The proposed showdown was set to take place this September at Althorp, where the duke and duchess of Sussex were due to stay with the Spencer family, to clear the air between the…

How much do you spend? I go to farmers’ markets as much as possible, so it really varies. I also order from Morrisons or Waitrose as they have a lot of organic produce. When it comes to fresh produce, I won't buy it unless it's organic. It is more expensive, but I like to support local as much as I can. Describe your daily diet… For breakfast I'll have some kefir with berries and almond butter all mixed in. For lunch in the winter, I have soup. Lentil soup is my favourite, but I also love mint and pea soup. For dinner, I try to have a healthy protein, healthy fats and greens. I also like cosy shepherd's pie-type dishes or a lentil pie. I like to make lots of…

£50 Star letter Good for Judy I was thrilled to see Judy Finnigan looking so amazing for her 77th birthday (issue 21) – the glow up really suited her! She's been absent from our screens for such a long time it was good to know she's well and enjoying life away from the no doubt hectic schedule of working on television.
