Emmerdale boss addresses previous killer storms and reveals how next one is different
It’s difficult to imagine a deadly storm when we’re in the middle of a heatwave, but Emmerdale villagers have been exposed to several over the years. Producers have revealed that another storm is set to rock the village in October, just in time for the 50th anniversary. But how will this storm differ to the previous ones? Lets start with a recap. Possibly the most memorable storm villagers faced occurred in 2004, and took the life of Marlon’s (Mark Charnock) wife, Tricia (Sheree Murphy). Poor Trish met her end when the Woolpack fell on top of her after being struck by lightning. Somebody please hide Rhona this year! October 2013 saw another storm hit, and the Woolpack was once again at the centre of the drama. While many of the villagers sought refuge in Home Farm, a number of regular characters were caught up in a siege. It was Cameron Murray (Dominic Power) that fell victim to the storm this time, having been electrocuted in the flooded Woolpack cellar. … [Read more...] about Emmerdale boss addresses previous killer storms and reveals how next one is different

Thomas Tuchel has different plans after Raheem Sterling declared his best position for Chelsea
Raheem Sterling declared his best position as on the wing, but Chelsea boss Thomas Tuchel ‘liked a lot’ what he saw from his new signing in the false nine role against Everton last weekend. Sterling has played as a winger for much of his career, but has also appeared as a central striker at Manchester City and has regularly played just off the centre-forward for England. On his Premier League debut for Chelsea at Goodison Park he was deployed as a false nine, with Kai Havertz and also in the attack as the Blues beat the home side 1-0. Speaking ahead of Chelsea’s big clash with Tottenham on Sunday, Sterling said he was happy to play across the front line, but his main position is on the wing. ‘As you all know, my position is mainly as a winger,’ he said. ‘Some of the time I enjoy floating about and getting on the ball. ‘But I always judge myself on how effective I am on the games, so it depends on where I’m going to be most effective at the moment. ‘The … [Read more...] about Thomas Tuchel has different plans after Raheem Sterling declared his best position for Chelsea

Prince Harry’s memoir will have to duke it out with competing Royal books
The Duke of Sussex is said to have put the final touches to his memoir, with fans eagerly awaiting his promised “truth”. As he hopes to give the definitive version of his own story, he may wish to hurry up, as Royal biographers old and new vie to tell ever-so-slightly different versions. The next few months will bring a flurry of books tipped to give new insight into the lives and behaviour of the Royals, with authors, ranging from one of the Sussexes’ chief “Royal expert” critics, to the journalist who broke the story of the Kensington Palace bullying row . Prince Harry’s own book is still rumoured to be out in October , but there has been no update from his team or his publishers since it was first announced in July 2021. He has said he is keen to tell the first “accurate and wholly truthful” account of his own life.

Prince William and Harry kept in the dark over Channel 4 documentary about Princess Diana
The Duke of Cambridge and the Duke of Sussex were kept in the dark about a new television series that will rake over the conspiracy theories surrounding their mother’s death . The four-part Channel 4 documentary, Investigating Diana: Death in Paris, will be broadcast later this month to coincide with the 25th anniversary of the late Princess’s death. Neither of her sons was consulted about the series and neither has been shown a preview, sources confirmed. For the brothers, it will represent yet another attempt to exploit their mother’s death and will only serve to fuel the various conspiracy theories about the fatal accident that producers claim they want to “put to rest”. It will be preceded, this Sunday, by another documentary which features the discredited Panorama interview the late Princess gave to Martin Bashir. Clips from the 1995 BBC interview will be included in The Princess, a new film to be broadcast by Sky and NOW TV.
