Three-piece suites, drinks trolleys, and inspirational wall quotes no longer feature in the nation’s most stylish living rooms – and have been replaced by corner sofas, sustainable furniture, and smart tech. A survey of 2,000 adults has identified what Brits think are the top 20 sitting room trends of 2022 – which include real wood flooring, log burners, statement rugs, luxury candles, and potted plants. Brits have also voted the “snug” style living room to be old-fashioned, and would rather opt for an open-plan space. And while 44% of Brits feel their living room is on trend, many are keen to continue updating their space – with a new sofa, flooring, and a lick of paint among the most desired modifications they’d like to make. The study into the living room trends of the nation was commissioned by Sky Glass, the new streaming TV service from Sky, which has been designed to reflect people’s home entertainment needs.

In just a matter of weeks the villa will be crammed with attractive singletons and bosses are determined to see more hook ups. Speaking about the upcoming series, Iain told new! Magazine: “I’ve not seen the villa. I like to wait and see it on the first day and meet the Islanders for the first time, so I’m like a viewer seeing it for the first time, too. “I know it’s got a fire pit because I talked about that in the trailer and I imagine if there’s more working out space it’ll be the sexiest series we’ve ever had.” The new villa -  a six-bed rustic Majorcan retreat - looks less flashy than previous series but still possesses a charm of its own that could add to the romance in the ITV dating show .

Friday's finale of ITV's Beat The Chasers left viewers thrilled, as contestant Brendan won a whopping £60,000 on the show. The final contestant of the current series took on five of the six Chasers and won. He'd secured £3,000 in the cash builder, and was offered the option to play for this amount, or a higher amount. But the higher he went, and the more Chasers he faced, meant he had less of a time advantage against the Chasers. Mark Labbett, AKA The Beast, tempted Brendan by adding £30,000 on to the previous offer of a £30k prize fund, bringing the total to £60k if he faced him, and four other quizzers. Brendan felt he had nothing to lose, saying he was "only here once" as he decided to play for the highest amount on the table.
