Jussie Smollett pleaded not guilty to renewed charges that accused him of staging the racist and homophobic attack on himself.

His not guilty pleas were entered for by his lawyer, Tina Glandian, on his behalf to six counts of felony disorderly conduct.

The lawyer also told Judge James B Linn that she has asked the Illinois Supreme Court to halt the case.

‘He’s obviously frustrated to be dragged through this process again,’ Tina told reporters after the hearing.

She called the restored prosecution ‘an ordeal’ for the Empire actor and said he has the support of his family.

‘He’s strong, he’s resilient, he’ll get through this, but he’s frustrated,’ she continued.

Last January, the 37-year-old filed a police report claiming he’d been beaten by two masked men who put a noose around his neck.

The city of Chicago then accused Jussie of falsifying a police report and orchestrating the attack himself.

He has always maintained his innocence and all charges against him were later dropped.

Jussie allegedly claimed to be the victim of a hate crime ‘knowing he was not the victim of a crime’, special prosecutor Dan Webb said earlier this month.

The actor initially faced 16 felony counts but, despite being indicted by a grand jury, the State Attorney dropped all charges.

He is now suing the city of Chicago for malicious prosecution.

According to Washington Post, the lawsuit states he was the victim of a malicious prosecution that caused him extreme distress and humiliation.

TMZ obtained the lawsuit which claimed that the brothers – who were allegedly paid for the attack – only came forward once they were promised immunity.

He also claimed the two men were lured into a smear campaign by police.

Kyle MacLachlan celebrated Twin Peaks Day yesterday in the best way possible as he returned as Agent Dale Cooper…via TikTok.

February 24 is an important date for fans of David Lynch’s mind-bending murder mystery, as its officially the date that Coop arrived in the infamous town to investigate the murder of Laura Palmer in the pilot.

Now, every year fans gather on this one day to celebrate the legacy of the genre-defining show, which ran for two seasons before being revied in 2017 for the 18-episode third series, subtitled The Return.

And it seems that lead actor MacLachlan is definitely keeping up with the changing times as he posted a TikTok tribute to his iconic introduction.

In the original scene, Coop is driving through to Twin Peaks, recording a message for his unseen assistant Diane on his dictaphone.

‘Diane, it’s 11.30am, February 24th,’ the Blue Velvet actor wrote, quoting his introductory line. ‘Entering the town of Twin Peaks…’

And the rest, as they say, is history.

Diane, it’s 11:30 am, February 24th. Entering the town of #TwinPeaks…and @tiktok_us https://t.co/LMDbiHaHn9

Tag me in your duets today and I’ll share some of my favorites 🌲☕️🚗 #TwinPeaksDay pic.twitter.com/oKAAIiozRA

Of course, those in the know will realise that the mythical Diane was never seen in the original series, before finally being unveiled in her multi-coloured wigged and chain-smoking glory, played by now-Academy Award winner Laura Dern.

The show was last seen on our screens in 2017 for the aforementioned Return, which we named the most underrated TV series of the decade last year.

Ever since then, fans have been clamouring for news of another sequel series. While nothing has been announced, creator, writer and director Lynch has already said ‘never say never’ in regards to making another series.

‘It’s too early to say right now,’ Lynch told The Hollywood Reporter in 2017. ‘I’ve learned never say never.’

Hopefully a viral Twin Peaks TikTok challenge will be all the hint he needs…

Lynch is, however, as busy as ever aside from his most famous creation – he recently debuted a typically confusing and confounding short film to Netflix featuring himself interrogating a monkey.

Twin Peaks seasons 1-3 are available to stream via NOW TV.

SNK’s reboot of their classic 2D fighter franchise comes to Nintendo Switch but what does Samurai Shodown have to offer modern gaming?

One of the many reasons to love Super Smash Bros. is the way it’s able to put the spotlight on forgotten franchises, increasing the likelihood of a reboot or at least pointing newcomers towards re-releases that would otherwise have been ignored. The reboot of Samurai Shodown was released on other formats five months before it was announced that Terry Bogard and a host of SNK references would be coming to Super Smash Bros. Ultimate, but now that they’ve had that time in the spotlight we hope that this belated Nintendo Switch launch will prove even more popular than it otherwise would have been.

The first Samurai Shodown was released in 1993 and, especially for the time, was unusual for being a purely weapons-based fighter. Unlike games such as Soulcalibur, Samurai Shodown made the effort of showing sword fighting in something approaching a realistic manner, at least in the sense that when you’re hit with a razor sharp sword there isn’t a little flash of light and a small sliver lost from your health bar; in Samurai Shodown there’s a huge splash of blood and you can lose a match after only four or five hits.

The tone of the game is typical fighting game nonsense, with a bare bones story campaign and not nearly enough other modes. But the tempo of battles, and the necessarily more cautious tactics that result, are very different from almost every other fighter, 2D or otherwise. Each character is distinctive and memorable but edging towards your opponent, looking for an opening but ready to block and counter at a moment’s notice, really does have the feel of being in an old samurai movie. Or at least its anime spin-off.

Apart from having easy to access to two controllers (the basic controls require only four buttons) Samurai Shodown doesn’t gain anything from being on the Switch but given the low tech visuals of last year’s versions there hasn’t been any problem porting the game onto Nintendo’s more modestly powered format.

Samurai Shodown doesn’t seem to have been a particularly big hit in terms of sales but it is in the EVO 2019 line-up this year, which is absolutely deserved. Games like Mortal Kombat 11 may have vastly larger budgets but Samurai Shodown was easily our favourite fighter of last year and, not counting Smash Bros., probably of the generation.

In a genre that has always struggled to innovate, Samurai Shodown feels genuinely different to anything else around. The fact that it’s still not technically new isn’t a failing either, since this is a loving reinvention of a franchise that always deserved to be better known that it is. As far as we’re concerned it’s put SNK back on the map and we commend it to fans new and old.

Keith Lemon is heartbroken after learning that companies have been selling fake versions of the Caroline Flack charity t-shirts he released last week.

The Celebrity Juice host launched a line of tees with ‘Be Kind’ printed on the front to crack down on social media trolls after Caroline died by suicide at the age of on 15 February. 

Since then, Keith’s t-shirts have been selling fast with proceeds going towards mental health charity Samaritans. 

However, he was upset to learn that brands have been selling fake versions of the tops which has possibly deprived Samaritans of the donations.

‘Unfortunately a company called @teespring has stolen the design and has started selling them,’ Keith captioned one of three videos sharing his frustration. 

‘That’s profits that would’ve gone to Samaritans. Hopefully they’ll do the right thing and hand over what profits they make to the Samaritans. Can’t trust anyone! Disappointing.’ 

He later added: ‘Last count we’d sold 11,280! Once again big Fanks to everyone who has already bought one! You are the RADest! 

‘So disappointed. Not very nice. I give up! Probably gonna be more out there.’ 

But one of the companies – Teespring – explained how the fake t-shirts ended up on their website. 

‘Hi @keithlemon Teespring is a user-generated platform and all designs are created by independent individuals,’ they responded. 

‘In response to your recent post, we have ensured the sellers account has been disabled. Rest assured, we do not support this behaviour on our platform and will work with you to make this right!’ 

Keith, 46, had been close friends with Caroline after working together on the sketch show Bo Selecta in 2002. 

Following her tragic death, the TV star also revealed his initial plans to honour Caroline with a festival after one of his Twitter followers suggested the ‘great’ idea.

‘I don’t know how it would work or what I could do? But then I thought what can I do? Well ya know I do t-shirts? I do t-shirts,’ Keith tweeted at the time. 

‘I thought the least I can do is draw her a t-shirt where all the proceeds go to mental health. So I’ve done this. I’ll let you know when a where you can get one as soon as it’s available. #bekind [sic]’ 

The design features a black and white picture of Caroline, and the words ‘be kind!’, the slogan which has become synonymous for since taking her own life on 15 February.

Katy Perry has sent a group of firefighters through to Hollywood after they ‘saved her life’ following a gas leak on American Idol.

The popstar recently collapsed to the ground during the show’s auditions after sniffing out the worrying scent of gas.

And now she has jokingly rewarded the team who came to the rescue with a bunch of golden tickets.

Taking to Twitter, the 35-year-old shared a clip of ‘what happened next’ alongside the caption: ‘Big shout out to all of our first responders around the country.

‘Thanks for risking your lives every day…and all night long #AmericanIdol.’

In the short video, the Dark Horse hitmaker squealed: ‘You saved me!’ while jumping into the arms of one of the crew members.

The judges then returned to their panel and watched their heroes sing a rendition of Lionel Richie’s All Night Long.

Explaining how they saved the future of American Idol, as well as their lives, Katy proceeded to hand out a number of golden tickets (which usually secures the hopeful’s place in the next round of the competition).

The moment took place shortly after Katy found herself laying on the ground after smelling gas.

‘It’s pretty intense,’ she stated, with her fellow judge Luke Bryan agreeing: ‘We’re getting heavy propane.’

‘I have a slight headache from it, oh it’s bad, it’s really bad,’ Katy said, standing up from the desk while the auditionees waiting outside were quickly evacuated from the building as the fire service was called.

‘You can smell it, right,’ Hello singer Lionel asked the firefighter, adding: ‘Holy c**p.’

Things then take a turn for the worse outside, with Orlando Bloom’s fiancee saying: ‘I’m not feeling good,’ before dramatically falling to the floor.

It comes after Katy gave fans an update on her wedding preparations with Orlando – and awkwardly revealed her Idol co-judges Lionel and Luke aren’t invited to the big day.

She told Jimmy Kimmel: ‘I can’t afford them! I mean, no – look, they have a lot of work to do, you know while I’m out getting married… again.’

BTS shut down Grand Central Terminal for an epic performance of ON from their new album Map Of The Soul: 7.

The K-Pop band belted out their new bop as they used the station’s endless space to show off their best moves for the Tonight Show With Jimmy Fallon.

With around 30 backup dancers, BTS jumped and weaved with extreme ease.

What we want to know is how long it took to film and how long people had to wait before they could use the terminal again.

No one can say they’re not influential when they shut down an entire terminal.

Later on, Jimmy gave BTS the ultimate tour of New York by taking them on the subway – and yes, it was emptied out first.

After being asked how he feels about the US responding to their music so positively, Suga explained: ‘It never ceases to amaze me. Every day is a surprise.’

Jin quickly jumped in: ‘It’s all thanks to our ARMY. I love you, ARMY,’ before giving the camera a wink.

The interview quickly turned goofy after V revealed he wanted to be a saxophonist before BTS, resulting in the boys and Jimmy yelling out the tune to George Michael’s Careless Whisper.

J-Hope – who wanted to be a tennis player, by the way – couldn’t help getting up, holding onto the railings and moving his hips to the beat.

RM also revealed that one person he’d like to meet would be John Cena, and we don’t blame him.

‘He’s a big fan of us. It’s mutual, of course,’ the rapper said. ‘We were always watching WWE when we were like 13.’

Proving to be a long-time fan, the members joined RM in singing Cena’s famous WWE entrance theme song.

‘I’m going to get you hooked up with John Cena,’ Fallon said.

Now we just need to patiently wait for a Cena/BTS collaboration.

Ayda Field has shared an adorable first video of her husband Robbie Williams cradling their newborn baby and our hearts have officially melted.

The couple look to be taking in the newborn bliss after welcoming their fourth child, Beau Benedict Enthoven Williams, via surrogate.

In the clip, the Angels hitmaker can be seen gazing at the little one as he cradles him in his arms.

With Ayda asking, ‘How’s it feel, Dada?’ the singer gave her a cheeky wink before giving all his attention back to his baby son.

‘A Beau-tiful Moment #fatherandson #babybeau 💙AWxx,’ Ayda captioned the video, with fans obsessed with the sweet clip.

Beau was kept a secret from fans until his arrival, with Ayda announcing the happy news on Valentine’s Day, and describing their family as ‘officially complete’.

The pair’s daughter Coco, who was also born via their surrogate, was kept a secret until her arrival last September.

https://www.instagram.com/p/B8jmteKHdV8/

Following her birth, Ayda explained on Instagram that she and Robbie endured a ‘long and difficult path’ trying for another baby.

Robbie, 46, and Ayda, 40, have stayed incredibly close with their surrogate, with it being reported that they spent Coco’s first birthday with her in August last year.

The pair also share two other children – daughter Theodora (Teddy), seven and son Charlton (Charlie), five.

While fans were none the wiser about Beau until his arrival, it seems Ayda was dropping hints during a previous appearance on Loose Women.

While talking about growing the family, Ayda said: ‘I’d like to, [but] you never know whats going to happen in the world, will it work, will it not, where we are in our life.

‘I’d like one more, but after that I think Rob would commit me somewhere and run away with Gary Barlow into the sunset. Being a mum is my greatest pleasure.’

Bad luck Gary – it seems Robbie is staying firmly where he is.

Good Morning Britain viewers once again found themselves asking ‘where is Piers Morgan on GMB?’ as Bill Turnbull took to the sofa again this morning.

Bill has stepped in to fill Piers’ Monday to Wednesday slot while he holidays in the US.

Yesterday, the former BBC presenter had a fond reunion with Susanna Reid as the pair hugged onscreen, explaining they haven’t worked together for six years.

Bill, 64, is an English journalist and presenter best known for presenting BBC Breakfast from 2001 to 2016.

He also fronts his own radio show on Classic FM which airs from 10-1pm on Saturdays and Sundays.

The presenter is married to Sarah McCombie, whom he married 32 years ago, in 1988.

The couple have two sons – Henry (born 1988) and Will (born 1989) – and one daughter, Flora, who was born in 1991.

The family lived in Buckinghamshire before relocating to Cheshire in 2012 when BBC Breakfast moved to Salford.

Bill revealed in 2018 that he was living with incurable prostate cancer.

The presenter has spoken candidly about his journey, using his public profile to raise cancer awareness.

He first spoke publicly about his diagnosis at the end of a special episode of Great British Bake Off which aimed to raise money for Stand Up 2 Cancer.

In October 2019 he took viewers through his cancer journey in his documentary Bill Turnbull: Staying Alive.

The Channel 4 documentary showed him trying numerous cannabis derivatives to help ease his pain.

In an article for inews.co.uk on the subject he wrote: ‘I knew that, as someone living with incurable advanced prostate cancer, things would occasionally become emotional. But almost from the moment, we started filming, it seemed my tear ducts were on standby to spout at the least excuse.

‘Sitting with my wife on the sofa? Taps on. Reuniting with my old Breakfast partner Sian Williams? Gush. Somehow even talking about my kids rendered me speechless with emotion. I just couldn’t help it.’

He told viewers and co-host Susanna yesterday he was ‘feeling pretty good. Still getting treatment for the moment but things are going okay.’

Good Morning Britain airs weekdays at 6am on ITV.

The WWE Universe is just days away from Super ShowDown, and everyone on the Raw roster delivered an exciting go-home show for the big event in Saudi Arabia.

Kicking things off, Randy Orton arrived as he admitted his emotions were unbalanced and he needed to apologise for his recent actions as he reflected on being back in Winnipeg 15 years after the red brand was last in town.

In 2005, he was IC champ and punched in the face by Edge – who would later save him – and Orton insisted he’s truly sorry for taking out the Rated R Superstar after his Royal Rumble return last month.

However, Kevin Owens had heard enough, hitting the ring and putting aside his issues with Seth Rollins for the night to deal with another delusional superstar.

KO doesn’t believe Orton’s apology and asked the Viper why he did what he did – even though he saw what Randy did to Matt Hardy when he posed the same question. Orton told Owens that he nor Edge really knew him – and the pair agreed to fight in the main event.

This was phenomenal work all round – Randy really is on a whole other level at the moment – as the pair set the scene for the show’s climax.

Before that, we also got some action between Street Profits, and Seth Rollins and his disciples – first with the Monday Night Messiah ruining Angelo Dawkins match with Murphy before taking on Montez Ford in a phenomenal career-making performance from the latter, falling short after 15 minutes of great action.

Seth wasn’t done though, getting involved in our main event – with Viking Raiders, Street Profits and AOP all piling in too – before he distracted KO enough for Orton to hit the draping DDT for a very fast count from the ref.

Rollins gave Randy a chair to finish off Owens, who fought him off and grabbed the official, revealing he was wearing a Seth t-shirt.
Stunner, powerbomb through a table – that’s that. Great reaction from the crowd as KO stands tall!

Best of the rest

We potentially got a hint about AJ Styles’ big WrestleMania plans as he took out Aleister Black bakstage – with the help of the OC – before Black went to the ring to face Erick Rowan in a rematch.

Aleister overcame his foe, before challenging AJ Styles to fight him next week – could some shenanigans set these two on the path to Tampa?

Paul Heyman and Brock Lesnar were also in the building on Monday night, with the advocate delivering his standard – but epic – go home promo before the beast faces Ricochet in Saudi Arabia on Thursday.

It’s been an incredible Road to #WrestleMania for @DMcIntyreWWE.

Amazing stuff here from Drew, who could finally get the career-defining moment he undoubtedly deserves in Tampa in April.

Beyonce proved to be a great source of comfort for Kobe Bryant’s grieving wife, Vanessa Bryant, at the NBA legend’s memorial yesterday. 

Celebrities gathered at the Staples Center in Los Angeles, California on Monday (25 February) to mourn the tragic deaths of Kobe and his daughter Gianna ‘Gigi’ Bryant, who were killed in a helicopter crash in January. 

Vanessa sat in the front row with two of her surviving daughters Natalia, 17, and Bianka, three, and was visibly distraught throughout the emotionally-charged service despite delivering a powerfully strong eulogy. 

During one of the many tributes from Kobe’s friends, the camera panned to Vanessa turning to the side in her seat with Beyonce, sat behind her, holding onto the widow’s hand tightly and bowing her head.

Beyonce, 38, has been praised for being there for Vanessa in her time of need and many were unaware that they were close friends. 

The Single Ladies singer had opened the memorial service with a stirring rendition of her song XO and hit ballad Halo. 

Fans noticed that Beyonce sensitively changed some of the triggering lyrics especially for the service, given the nature of Kobe and Gianna’s death.

Instead of singing the original XO lyric ‘crashing into you’, Beyonce thoughtfully changed it to ‘laughing into you’ in light of the helicopter crash. 

She also added in new lyrics for Halo and turned to Vanessa singing: ‘I can feel it/ He will your/ She will be your halo.’ 

Before launching into her heartfelt performance, Beyonce explained: ‘I’m here because I love Kobe and this was one of his favourite songs,’ referring to XO, before adding: ‘I want you to sing it so loud, they’ll hear your love.’ 

Beyonce had known Kobe since at least 1998 when he made an appearance in Destiny’s Child music video for Bug A Boo. 

Kobe and Vanessa, 37, also attended Beyonce and Jay Z’s New Year’s Eve party in December and shared a sweet video of them kissing at midnight on Instagram. 

During her heartrending eulogy, Vanessa shared fond memories and funny stories about Kobe and his life as a father after retiring from the LA Lakers three years prior to his death. 

Talking about Gigi, she said: ‘She was always thoughtful, always kissed me good night and good morning. 

‘She knew how much her kisses meant to me and she was so thoughtful. She was Daddy’s girl but I know she loved her Momma. She was one of my very best friends.’ 

She added of her soulmate Kobe: ‘He was loving, adoring and romantic, he was truly the romantic one in our relationship. 

‘We were two perfectly imperfect people making a family and raising our sweet and amazing girls. ‘Before he passed he mentioned that he wanted us to spend more time together.

‘We never got the chance to do it. We were busy doing our everyday responsibilities, but I’m thankful I have that recent text. It means so much to me.’ 

Vanessa closed her eulogy: ‘Ending her speech, Vanessa said: ‘God knew they couldn’t be on this Earth without each other. He had to bring them home to have them together. 

‘May you both rest in peace and have fun in heaven until we meet again one day. We love you both and miss you forever and always; Mummy.’ 

The memorial also saw Alicia Keys play a stunning rendition of Vanessa and Kobe’s favourite song, Moonlight Sonata, while Christina Aguilera sang Ave Maria.

BTS have finally revealed what the ‘black bean noodle incident’ was after keeping fans guessing for almost a year.

As they rode the New York Subway with Jimmy Fallon, the US host asked what the incident was actually about – and let’s just say, RM is a man after our own hearts.

RM and Jimin had previously teased about the ‘incident’ during a fan livestream, revealing they were ‘saving the story for when they’re next on TV’.

Well, if you’re going to do it, Jimmy Fallon is a great choice, and as the gang explored New York together, Jimmy asked them to ‘fess up with what happened.

Jimin then revealed the truth, and said: ‘It was during our trainee days and we were taking a short break from practice.

‘RM said he was going to the restroom when in actuality he had gone to eat black bean noodles by himself, while all of us were waiting for him.’

Hey… he wants to eat his noodles in peace! You have to appreciate that.

RM added that he was so hungry he was getting a stomach ache, so it was a sacrifice he was willing to make.

We stan someone who appreciates a need for noodles.

But there you go, BTS Army. Another case solved.

While the K-pop stars were in New York, they made sure they got up to mischief alongside Jimmy, performing their new single ON in the middle Grand Central Station.

They also swung by the iconic Katz Delicatessen to serve up sandwiches.

The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon airs on Sky Comedy and Now TV in the UK.

The Walking Dead just went and dropped one heck of a dramatic episode for the season 10B premiere.

However, it seems fans were left slightly disappointed as the whole thing was shot inside a cave – and they could barely see anything!

Taking to Twitter, viewers compared the show to the time Game Of Thrones was in complete darkness for the season eight installment titled The Long Night.

‘I know they’re in a cave but I’m getting #TheLongNight flashbacks here,’ one wrote while someone else added: ‘Wtf it’s like Game of Thrones in that cave, it’s so dark I can’t see anything!’

Others echoed the same sentiment: ‘Why is this cave scene on #TheWalkingDead soooo dark I can’t see a thing.’

If you need reminding on how to turn up your TV brightness, here’s the guide we put together following that tragic GOT episode.

But while fans of the zombie hit missed out on Daryl (Norman Reedus) and Carol’s (Melissa McBride) underground drama, they sure got a feast for their eyes in that Negan (Jeffrey Dean Morgan) and Alpha (Samantha Morton) sex scene.

While we didn’t actually see them get down and dirty in the woods – Alpha forced Negan to strip at gunpoint with his back to the Whisperer leader, as she got naked too.

Thinking he was going to be shot, the Saviour turned around to see Alpha completely undressed with only her skin mask on – which she refused to take off.

But that didn’t make Negan shy away, and he still went along with everything after confessing it’d been ‘so long’ he’d take his chances.

Talking about the bizarre twist of events, showrunner Angela Kang defended her choice to include the seconds that left fans squirming in their seats.

She told Entertainment Weekly: ‘Alpha and Negan, obviously something has shifted in that relationship. So we’ll see in the season going forward where that takes us.’

On their decision to air the scene, Angela lays the blame squarely on the shoulders of writer David Johnson, who penned the creepy moment.

‘I was like, “This is so weird. I don’t know if I can air this. You know what? We kind of have to do this”,’ she explained. ‘I think it really tracks with who Alpha is.’

The Walking Dead airs Sundays on AMC in the US and Fox the following day in the UK.

Saturday Night Takeaway changed lives on its return last weekend as Ant and Dec surprised a couple with a brand new house live on air.

Petra and Simon Williams were brought to the studio completely unaware of what they were about to receive – believing they got tickets for the taping while they spend time in London.

The couple, who had been chosen after creating a charity for families dealing with bereavement, were then shocked when Ant and Dec were seen building a home in a recorded skit – and it cut to the ‘new owners’ being their children.

Petra’s mother was seen waving on the screen alongside the pair’s daughters Emelia-Paige, aged five; Layla-Grace, three, and two-year-old son Bailey.

The fancy new pad, based on the outside of Newcastle, is a new build fitted with all the ‘mod cons’ needed to accommodate both them and their family.

The three-bedroom house, worth £260,000, is based near the city’s Gosforth Park, and includes a fully furnished living room, kitchen and bedroom, and was provided by Bellway in order to help the family.

For the kids, the girls were given a princess themed bedroom, while Bailey got his own room based around dinosaurs.

Petra and Simon later explained the charity was called Darcey’s Dream, in memory of their daughter Darcey-Leigh who died three years ago from Sudden Infant Death Syndrome.

Darcey-Leigh was the twin sister of Layla-Grace, and the loss was taken particularly hard by eldest daughter Emelia-Paige, who eventually provided the inspiration behind the new charity after struggling with missing her sister.

But with Petra fronting the charity, it’s been up to Simon to provide for the family with his non-stop work as a delivery driver to pay the bills.

Speaking about their new home, Petra, 31, explained: ‘We are a bit like passing ships sometimes, we both work so hard. But for me, I could work an 85 hour week, barely see my husband, and I would still feel it was worth it to do my job, to see the difference it makes to the children.’

‘At the end of the day, it’s my little girl’s legacy, and getting recognised for the work we do has been amazing,’ she added. ‘Since we were on Saturday Night Takeway, we’ve had thousands more views to our website and social media: as as small charity, it’s often hard to be recognised, so this is amazing.’

Petra concluded: ‘We want to raise awareness of the fact that the siblings have lost just as much as mummy and daddy when there’s a bereavement. I’m passionate about raising awareness of sibling loss, so this has been brilliant for that.’

The new house, which comes completely mortgage and rent free, means that they’ll now be able to spend more time together as a family, and continue their work.

The sweet moment was a heart-wrenching watch, but was slightly marred by the studio audience giggling at the emotional moment as the kids joked around on the screen behind them.

Saturday Night Takeaway continues Saturday at 7pm on ITV.

Jeremy Clarkson took to Twitter to apologise to a fan after the opening of his new farm shop was a bit too muddy for some, which he branded a ‘bloody nightmare.’

The former Top Gear presenter opened the Squat Shop on his new farm, Diddly Squat, which he purchased and is running for his new Amazon Prime show I Bought The Farm.

The shop opened its doors on Saturday, where visiting fans were encouraged to pick up a bag of potatoes (cheaper than Aldi) and drinks which ‘have no s*** in them,’ apparently.

But it appears that it wasn’t all plain-sailing, as one fan took to social media to express his concerns that the shop wasn’t accessible to all because of muddy conditions.

‘We’re gutted,’ they wrote. ‘We pulled up outside but too muddy for an eight-month-old and a pushchair. We’ll be back one day.’

Jeremy himself replied to the tweet, saying: ‘I know. Bloody nightmare, sorry.’

Jeremy Clarkson apologising? We thought we’d never see the day!

The Grand Tour star is currently still filming on the 1,000-acre farm for I Bought The Farm – which will see him go through all the peaks and troughs of the agriculture business.

Ideas for this shop have clearly been in the making for a long time – it was announced at the end of last year that planning permission had been granted for it to be built.

The 59-year-old had previously announced his new endeavour via a video posted to Amazon Prime’s social media accounts.

Stood out in a field he sarcastically said: ‘Good news, I can finally confirm that I will be spending the next year in the rain making a show about farming for Amazon Prime.

‘That means people all over the world can watch me use 1000-acres of the Cotswolds to make thousands of tonnes of beer, and bread, and lamb chops, and jumpers.’

He continued: ‘Of course to be a farmer you have to be an agronomist, a businessman, a politician, an accountant, a vet, and a mechanic, and I am none of those things.’

I Bought The Farm comes to Amazon Prime Video this year.

The Big Bang Theory’s Kaley Cuoco has opened up about her decision to ditch demands to use a Boston accent for her portrayal of Harley Quinn.

The 34-year-old actress revealed that the DC show’s bosses wanted her to put on a Massachusetts lilt for the character, but she decided to put her own stamp on the badass instead and didn’t alter her voice.

‘They initially wanted me to do a strong Boston accent, but I told [co-showrunners] Justin [Halpern] and Patrick [Schumacker], “my voice is a little recognisable, and I think it’s gonna be silly if we pretend it’s anything other than Kaley playing this role”,’ Kaley said.

‘So it really just became mostly me screaming. It’s a lot of me, and I’ve kinda turned it into my own thing.

‘The show is unique, it’s not Suicide Squad, it’s so different and obviously so insane, that we’re able to make it exactly what we wanted.’

It wasn’t just Harley’s Boston accent that was ditched from the DC show, as showrunner Justin previously revealed to Metro.co.uk that they completely toned down its portrayal of Aquaman.

‘We kept in almost everything,’ he said. ‘The only thing we took out, that we were asked to take out by DC was we had a take on Aquaman that I think was in a direction I don’t think they wanted Aquaman to go down.

‘[In the film] Jason Momoa is kind of a bro type, like fraternity type and so we dialed that up to like one thousand, and I think it made the character too ridiculous – even for them.

‘So then we put a new take on the character.’

Justin also explained why Margot Robbie didn’t reprise her role of Harley for the cartoon.

‘Margot was never going to be able to do it because she was doing the Birds Of Prey film and a million other things,’ he said.

‘We talked with Margot a couple times but only in so much as, “Here’s what we’re doing, I don’t know what you guys are doing.” I think they wanted to make sure there wasn’t too much overlap between this show and the movie.’

Harley Quinn is available to stream on DC Universe.

Alt-pop star Grimes has shared details on her character in the upcoming and highly-anticipated game Cyberpunk 2077.

Grimes reportedly dropped some spoilers on her part in the game in a livestream which has since been taken down.

However the details of what she revealed about her character, Lizzy Wizzy, can still be found on Reddit.

Want to know what the musician revealed? Read on…

What we know about Grimes’ Cyberpunk 2077 character

Grimes’ character, Lizzy Wizzy, is a pop star just like her.

In the livestream, Grimes said: ‘I did my voice acting for Lizzy Wizzy, that game is going to be f***ing good. I mean I haven’t played it, but I saw someone play an hour of the game.’

She added: ‘The game was fantastic, and I play a pop star who committed suicide on stage, and they had to quickly come and perform emergency surgery and replace her whole body with cybernetics while she was dead for an hour.

‘Then she finished the show as a cyborg. One of the greatest pieces of performance art ever made.’

On top of playing a character in the game, Grimes is also appearing on the Cyberpunk 2077 soundtrack.

She’ll be joining the likes of ASAP Rocky, Tina Guo, Run the Jewels, Gazelle Twin and more.

Elizabeth Hurley went for a bike ride in her bikini and, well, why not.

The 54-year-old is currently holidaying in the Maldives and it turns out she didn’t quite fancy slogging it out in the gym while basically living in paradise.

Why hit the treadmill when you can bike on the beach, eh?

Choosing to go for a bike ride around the island instead, Elizabeth, who is no stranger to working it in her swimwear, hit the road in true Hurley fashion that saw her cycle while wearing a bright yellow bikini.

Sharing some videos of her in action to Instagram, the Royals star teased: ‘Morning exercise Maldives style.’

Now that’s the kind of exercise we can get on board with.

Elizabeth’s break away in the sunshine comes after it was confirmed she’ll be joining the Marvel universe.

Last month, it was revealed Elizabeth has been snapped up for season three of Marvel’s Runaways, where she’s been cast as comics villain Morgan le Fay – an iconic sorceress.

In the Marvel comics, she comes up against a whole host of other superheroes including fan favourites Iron Man and Scarlet Witch.

She addressed her exciting new role on Instagram and told fans she is ‘thrilled’ to be joining the cast.

Elizabeth wrote: ‘Thrilled to be joining the Marvel Universe to play Morgan le Fey, an iconic @marvelvillain and the greatest sorceress of all time, in @marvelsrunaways. Can’t wait to start.’

Elizabeth’s addition to the Hulu series will see her join the likes of Rhenzy Feliz (Alex Wilder), Lyrica Okano (Nico Minoru), Virginia Garner (Karolina Dean) and Gregg Sulkin (Chase Stein).

She previously starred as Queen Helena in E! series The Royals, which was cancelled after four seasons in 2018.

BTS have been putting on their chef’s hats as they took on the iconic Katz’s Deli in New York City – however, things quickly devolved into chaos.

And if there’s one thing we’ve learnt, it’s to never ask RM to part from his beloved veggies.

The K-Pop heroes – Jin, Jimin, Suga, J-Hope, Jungkook, V, and RM – were treated to a feast as they and Jimmy Fallon sat down in the landmark, best known for featuring in the 1989 movie When Harry Met Sally.

However, the Tonight Show host didn’t let them relax for too long, putting them to work as chefs, as they made sandwiches for hungry customers.

Naturally, the whole thing descended into chaos pretty quickly, with Jimmy whizzing around the restaurant, yelling ‘BTS made this for you!’ at innocent passers-by, while the band were left unimpressed with his waiting skills.

Can’t get the staff, right lads?

Of course, ARMYs have been loving the new video, especially the little moments, which include RM being baffled at the meal not including any vegetables, Jimin wisely giving the mustard a good sniff before trying any, and Jimmy accidentally pulling off Jimin’s glove instead of shaking his hand.

And that all came before the lads shut down Grand Central Station to give an iconic performance of their new song ON. As you do.

Jimmy also gave the band a tour of the subway, as they chatted away, with things quickly turning goofy as they discussed what jobs they dreamed of having before BTS existed.

V revealed he wanted to be a saxophonist, resulting in the boys and Jimmy yelling out the tune to George Michael’s Careless Whisper.

J-Hope – who wanted to be a tennis player, by the way – couldn’t help getting up, holding onto the railings and moving his hips to the beat.

RM also revealed that one person he’d like to meet would be John Cena, pointing out: ‘He’s a big fan of us. It’s mutual, of course.’

Who isn’t though?!

Love Island winners Paige and Finn have confessed that they did ‘do bits’ in the villa – as they were spotted rustling under the covered by Ched on their last day together.

The pair, who took home the £50,000 prize on Sunday night, admit that they were as shocked as the rest of us as they gave in to temptation, with Finn talking about their antics with the boys ‘Breakfast Club’.

Speaking about their night time antics, Paige said: ‘Being in there and sharing a bed for so long and having genuine feelings, it’s hard to fight them.’

‘You go in there and you think, ‘I’m not going to do it’, all of this, all of that,’ Finn added. ‘But then you’re living 24/7 having genuine solid, feelings for someone and are really attracted to them!

‘And some of them bikinis – phwoar!’

Paige isn’t even mad about what happened between the pair being spoken about among the boys – via the worst ‘breakfast’ code known to man.

‘To be fair, that’s lad banter – so whatever,’ she said, joking: ‘The code was intellectual for the boys. They were terrible at hiding it – I knew exactly what was going on.’

The pair have been seeing going from strength-to-strength over the past few weeks – via a number of ‘old married couple spats’ along the way.

Despite this, they remained loyal to each other throughout, even through Casa Amor, where they were one of only two couples to stay faithful.

The other was Siannise Fudge and Luke T, who came in second place at the end of the series.

By the end of the series, the pair broke down in the final challenge as they admitted they loved each other.

‘I knew that night you were nervous ahead of your speech you were going to do it,’ Paige admitted. ‘I’d written I love you and then scribbled it out on mine. Then I wrote it again and scribbled it out. And then again.

‘I was just praying he’d read his declaration out first. I don’t know if I’d have had the balls to say it first.’

Love Island is available now to catch-up on ITV Player.

Eamonn Holmes could face a £250,000 bill after he lost a case to the taxman over how he is paid.

It was reported that the This Morning host claimed he was a freelancer, meaning he gets paid through his own company.

Sources have now alleged that on Monday night, Holmes could face a £250,000 bill in taxes after HM Revenue and Customs decided to crack down on the practice, which can lead to lower taxes being paid.

A spokesman for the presenter claimed Holmes has ‘never knowingly avoided paying taxes’ and that he had ‘always considered himself a self-employed freelancer’.

They continued in a statement to ContractorCalculator that the star was  ‘seeking to comprehend what this means’ and wished for ‘clarity and consistency across the guidelines’ so others do not ‘suffer the same confusion’ over the rulings.

Holmes, who is married to co-host Ruth Langsford, revealed that he was a ‘test case’ and believed that if they won against him, they would ‘go after everyone else’.

He exclaimed: ‘I was in a court in central London for a week in June. I’ve been freelance for 28 years and that’s been okay.

‘Now they’ve said it’s not okay. They have reinvented the rules in the past couple of years. There is nobody more freelance than me, but they are trying to prove our jobs are regular and guaranteed. They could go at any moment.’

It has been widely reported that HMRC has been investigating the way TV stars are paid as freelancers through personal service companies.

They wanted to make sure employees pay employment taxes even if they were working for their own company.

In the past, HMRC has pursued other celebrities over the use of personal service companies.

Last year Lorraine Kelly almost faced a £1.2million tax bill for her ITV work, although she appealed the case and was successful.

The presenter won her appeal after arguing that she does not appear as herself on TV but as a persona known as ‘Lorraine Kelly’.

Metro.co.uk has reached out to Eamonn Holmes’ rep for a comment.
