Was Surrey 'child abduction' just a parent telling off a naughty kid?

Detective Superintendent Chris Edwards made a plea direct to parents asking for anyone to come forward who may have been telling off their child
Police probing the suspected kidnapping of a young boy in Surrey have admitted they are working on a 'second theory' that the child was being told off by his own parents.
Officers for Surrey Police revealed the probe as they made a desperate plea for anyone who was in the area at the time with their own children to get in touch.
The force launched a massive investigation using almost every resource at their disposal after getting reports that a young boy, aged around six or seven, was forced into a black van against his will.
But since the alleged incident, in Redhill on Thursday afternoon, they have not received any reports of missing children.
PA BIKE HAS BEEN DISCOUNTED FROM INVESTIGATION -A general view of where an abandoned bike was found in Redhill
Detective Superintendent Chris Edwards admitted they are working on two theories.
One, he said, is that the incident is "exactly as portrayed and reported and that a child has been abducted from the roadside".
The second, he added, is that the adult seen bundling the child into a black van was a relative or guardian and that they were involved in some kind of row with the boy or had dragged them into the vehicle in a manner that looked like an abduction.

Det Supt Edwards said: "The second theory we are operating, again this a heartfelt plea for anyone who may have information in support of it, if you were at that location and involved in an incident on Thursday with your own child or a child that you are connected to, we would urge you to come forward and make contact immediately so we can scale the investigation back and offer messages of reassurance to the public."
Det Supt Edwards insisted that he has complete faith in the witness's account of what they had seen despite the fact that nobody else has come forward to say they also saw the incident.

He said the witness was credible and that he had been spoken to more than once, but they have no idea if the 'abductor' was male or female.
He said that the child was forced against their will into the van but added that there had not been a struggle.
Police have had 130 calls from the public about the incident so far and continue to appeal for witnesses to come forward.
Surrey Police BIKE HAS BEEN DISCOUNTED FROM INVESTIGATION -Police appeal for witnesses after child is suspectedly taken into black VW van in Redhill
A member of the public told Surrey Police that they saw a child being bundled into a black modified VW Transporter van on Redstone Hill, in Redhill, between 4.20 and 4.45pm on Thursday, August 25.
The child is described as being white, approximately 4ft tall and around six or seven years old.
They were wearing a red T-shirt and navy blue jeans.
The van was then seen to leave the area - which is outside Redhill station - and a major search, involving scores of officers, the police helicopter and police dogs, has been taking place ever since.

A child's black and yellow bike was found abandoned at the scene which added to police concerns that a child may have been abducted, but that proved to be false.
A sliding side door was seen on the van, alongside chrome sidesteps and no rear windows.
Officers have said it has three alloy wheels, with one on the front nearside missing.

Since the rise of fascism in the 1930s and 40s, the swastika has become a symbol of hatred and intolerance - but it used to be so different

Mystery 180-ft wide 'Nazi crop circle' appears overnight in Wiltshire field sparking alien fears from conspiracy theorists

Did an evil race of Nazi aliens land on earth and carve this Swastika-shaped crop circle?
No, of course not - but it's nevertheless led to a pretty interesting discussion online.
The enormous symbol - today synonymous with Adolf Hitler's fascist dictatorship of the 1930 and 40s - was discovered in a field in Beckhampton, Wilthsire.
Drone footage shows how the intricate design bears a worrying resemblance to the cross-armed insignia adopted by the Nazis, which will forever be a chilling emblem for far right extremism and anti-semitism.

SWNS The crop circle in Beckhampton, near Avery, Wiltshire that looks like a Nazi swastika
But before Hitler came to power, the Swastika meant something completely different.
Ancient mysteries author Hugh Newman, who captured the footage, spotted a Facebook post not long after the crop circle was cut.
Mysterious Australian Outback fairy circles 'solved' as scientists claim to have decoded crop circle-like riddle
SWNS many have been quick to point out the symbol is not the same as the one used by the Nazi party
The 43-year-old said: "I rushed there to check it out and I met the farmer there and he was keen for me to not go into the field.
"I flew my drone over it and got some good shots.
"The big trouble of the years is who cuts these crop circles because sometimes people don't have a clue how they ended up there, and the farmer didn't know.
"He didn't say much to me but he was a bit concerned by the symbol and he saw the negative connotation of it when he realised what it looked like."
SECOND mysterious black UFO crashes in Spanish field sparking terror among villagers
SWNS Drone footage captures the detailed design
In ancient Sanskrit, the 'svastika' symbolised auspiciousness and well-being, and was used by Hindu, Buddhist and Jains for centuries.
The symbol can often be seen on Buddha statues going back thousands of years as well as on temples and houses, Mr Newman said.
Amazing drone footage captures out of this world crop circle
Originally an equilateral cross with its four arms bent at 90 degrees, it was adopted by some western countries in the early 20th century as a symbol of good luck, but with the arms reversed and tipped to a 45 degree angle.
Isle of Wight County Press News Service The swastika is today a symbol of hatred after being adopted by Adolf Hitler
It was this emblem that would later become the trademark of fascism.
Further differences are the ancient symbol has dots in the gaps between the lines and has round edges, compared to the blunt edges used in the Nazi flag.
Mr Newman added: "You get teams of hoaxers going around and doing crop circles without anyone's permission and if they get caught they can be prosecuted for it.
"But some of the circles they cut are so advanced and difficult to do that it is actually land art."
Conspiracy theorists hoping to discuss whether a fascist alien race was sending a signal of intent will be dissapointed.
So instead, here's the trailer for 2012's Iron Sky, a film about Nazis on the moon.

Huma Adebin announced split from Weiner after he was busted sexting this snap with their son https://t.co/dn5zuBmcqp pic.twitter.com/5T0zFtfD3r — New York Post (@nypost) August 29, 2016
A married former US congressman sent a raunchy sext to another woman - while in bed with his young son.
Anthony Weiner, 51, resigned in disgrace in 2012 after being caught sexting seven women including one aged just 21 when he accidentally posted an explicit image on Twitter.
His wife Huma Abedin - an aide to Democratic presidential candidate Hillary Clinton - stood by him then but has today said she's leaving Weiner over his latest scandal.
The New York Post published an image Weiner sent to a busty brunette, aged in her 40s, who exchanged a series of flirty messages with him beginning in 2015.
REUTERS New York mayoral candidate Anthony Weiner and his wife Huma Abedin
Weiner wrote "someone just climbed into my bed" before sending the cringe-inducing image of him in just a pair of underpants with his young son cuddling him.
He also sent the woman, who has not been named, other semi-nude images as they discussed workout regimes.
In an apparent reference to his genitalia, he wrote at one point: "I am always, uh, raging after the gym."
In another, he said: "I'd [sic] put someone’s eye out with this thing. #Overdue."
The woman told the Post although Weiner repeatedly invited her to New York they never met in person.
But on Monday, Ms Abedin said she was separating from Weiner.
"After long and painful consideration and work on my marriage, I have made the decision to separate from my husband," Huma Abedin said in a statement.
"Anthony and I remain devoted to doing what is best for our son, who is the light of our life.
"During this difficult time, I ask for respect for our privacy."
The New York Daily News has also announced Weiner's weekly column in the paper is being dropped.
AFP Huma Abedin has said she is separating from Weiner and asked for privacy
Weiner resigned in June 2011 from Congress, where he represented a New York City district, followed a sexting scandal in which he accidentally posted an explicit photo of himself on his public Twitter timeline.
When Weiner made a second unsuccessful run for New York City mayor, explicit photos surfaced in July 2013 that he had recently sent under the pseudonym "Carlos Danger" to a young woman in Indiana.
Weiner said he had undergone therapy after the first sexting scandal, according to media reports.
In recent months, he has taken care of the couple's toddler son as Ms Abedin often travels with the Clinton campaign.
Clinton's Republican rival, Donald Trump, said in a statement: "Huma is making a very wise decision.
"I know Anthony Weiner well, and she will be far better off without him."
Ms Abedin first worked for Clinton in the 1990s as an intern when Clinton was first lady.
She is now the vice chair of Clinton's presidential campaign.
Weiner served in Congress, representing his district in New York City from 1999 to 2011.
His first unsuccessful run for New York mayor was in 2005.

Here’s Mourinho’s full answer when asked if Schweinsteiger could play for United again.
“I think it’s very difficult to happen. I’m not saying it’s impossible, I’m saying its very difficult because we have made a decision made about Pogba, Herrera, Schneiderlin, Fellaini and Carrick, we have five players for two positions, so it’s very difficult for an opportunity to arise.
“I cannot answer for him. It’s his life, his career, he has a contract with Man United. He has a right to make that decision and stay, so that’s not a problem for us.
“Football is made of decisions. I did that all my career. Not just me, everyone does, but some players react in a different way.
“To be honest, Bastian is not speaking a lot. He gave his last statement, which he is completely free to make, in an objective way, like he did.
“I thought, when I read some quotes from people at Bayern Munich, they would run to Manchester to bring him back, but no, that didn’t happen. I’m quite surprised Karl-Heinze Rummennigge is not here to take him back.
“So I think we’re going to have a very quiet week, not surrounded by helicopters, waiting for somebody to leave or to arrive, so I am more than happy with the squad I have.”

Mauricio Pochettino has warned his Spurs players to beware Liverpool - the counter-attackers who can score from anywhere.
Spurs had the joint-best defensive record last season and are up against the highest Premier League scorers of the 2016 calendar year.
Despite their stuttering start, Jurgen Klopp’s men hit four in winning at Arsenal and five in recapturing their form in the League Cup at Burton in midweek.
They were also 4-0 winners over Barcelona earlier this month in pre-season.

Pochettino said: “They are a team that likes to play on the counter-attack.
“They are very comfortable playing deeper and running fast. You could see in the game against Barcelona at Wembley - 4-0 for them.
“They wait and when they recover the ball, players like Lallana, Origi, Coutinho, Wynaldum, Mane, they are very fast. They like to play in this style. I think we are very different.
“We are trying to work on our players’ fitness and consistency which is so hard after the short break they’ve had following the Euros.”
REUTERS Divock Origi set Liverpool on their way to a thumping win at Burton

Spurs are without a win in their last seven league games against Liverpool, losing five of those matches and conceding a total of 19 goals.
But Pochettino insists he is just as focused on the bigger picture as he is on addressing his club’s poor record against the Reds.
Spurs enjoyed an impressive fitness record last season and Pochettino wants to ensure that a busy summer for most of his stars does not have a negative impact on his title ambitions.
“We have had a lot of players involved in the Euros,” he said. “We we are in the process of trying to build their fitness and looking at ways in which we can help them to adapt within the team.

“We are very focused on giving the team more quality in fitness and consistency. It's impossible after the Euros with a very short break just to recover and start again.
“To start the Premier League after two weeks' training, then go into international competition, it's very tough for the players.
“We want to create the conditions for our players to be fit for the whole season.
“We are a little bit late in our development for this new season. After the international break we can start to work on small details and develop different possibilities to play linked with our work on the pitch.”

"She's been touring for four months non-stop and won't rest until mid-December with her 'Revival' tour still to hit Europe and South America.
"There's real concern and the plan is to talk to her in the next few days to ask her to consider taking some time off."

Shocking footage shows the growth on the cheek of 19-year-old Pulei Latu prior to her extreme surgery in Melbourne.
The benign tumour, which caused parts of the Tongan teen's mouth and teeth to deform, was removed during an eight hour operation on Friday.
Speaking to 7 News , she said: "I feel different. Sometimes I look in the mirror, and yeah, I think it's grown bigger. It'll [the surgery] be good because they change mine to my normal face."

Watch Wayne Rooney 's England press conference in full, in the video above.
On Monday night, Sam Allardyce confirmed that Wayne Rooney will stay on as England's captain - and the country's all-time top scorer gave his reaction in front of the media on Tuesday.
The Manchester United forward, who will become England's most capped outfield player on Sunday, started off by setting an international retirement date.
But the Three Lions skipper won't hang up his boots before competing in what will be his fourth World Cup - should he be selected.

Rooney also revealed his delight to being allowed to continue his England responsibility and said he never thought about retiring after Euro 2016.
It still remains to be seen how Rooney will be deployed under Big Sam, with the Three Lions boss previously saying his captain's position very much depends on Jose Mourinho.

However, speaking yesterday, Allardyce said: "Wayne's position's changed at Manchester United and that's the sort of position I'd be looking to play him."

Tottenham 1-1 Liverpool player ratings: Who was YOUR man of the match at White Hart Lane?

Tottenham Hotspur continued their unbeaten start to the season, but were fortunate to walk away from White Hart Lane with a share of the spoils against an aggressive Liverpool side on Saturday lunchtime.
James Milner had put the Reds in front on the stroke of half-time, turning home from the penalty spot after Erik Lamela's foul on Roberto Firmino.
Liverpool should have led before then, Philippe Coutinho missing two good opportunities, while Spurs failed to really threaten Simon Mignolet's goal.
But after Sadio Mane had seen a second-half effort disallowed for offside, Danny Rose struck from close range to earn a point for Mauricio Pochettino's side, who struggled for fluency throughout.
But who impressed in north London? Here's what our man in the stands, John Cross, thought of those on the field:

Player Ratings
Tottenham
Michel Vorm 8
MOTM. Sensational save to deny Coutinho and made four great blocks.
REUTERS Save: Vorm had a fine game for Spurs
Kyle Walker 6
Went off early and that could be a major blow for England.
Toby Alderweireld 6
Saw close range header brilliantly saved by Mignolet.

Jan Vertonghen 5
Booked. Below his best, even beaten at set pieces.
Danny Rose 7
Such a competitor. And top class finish for the equaliser.
Eric Dier 6
Started in midfield, switched to right back and was solid.
2016 Getty Images All action: Dier switched to right-back in the second half
Victor Wanyama 6
Solid in midfield, but does not drive forward like Dembele.
Christian Eriksen 6
Short on invention and ideas. Blasted big chance over the bar.
Dele Alli 7
Booked. Shifted roles in midfield and was solid in both.
REUTERS Battling: Dele Alli was at the heart of most things
Erik Lamela 6
Conceded a penalty for clumsy foul on Firmino.
Harry Kane 5
His curse of never scoring in August continues. Another slow start.
Substitutes
Subs Used: Janssen 6 (Walker, 28mins), Onomah, (Kane 83mins), Winks (Eriksen, 90mins)
Subs not used: McGee, Carter-Vickers, Davies, Son
REUTERS All square: Which manager will have been happier?
Liverpool
Simon Mignolet 7
Good save from Lamela and did well when called into action.
Nathaniel Clyne 7
Did well as he battles Walker to be England’s first choice right back.
Joel Matip 7
Got better as the game wore on, good clearances and headers.
Dejan Lovren 6
For such a big guy, he should be stronger and more imposing.
James Milner 7
Scored a penalty and put in a terrific, willing shift at left back.
REUTERS Sticking around: A key man even at left-back
Jordan Henderson 7
Sat deep in midfield but still has an instinct to drive forward.
Georginio Wijnaldum 6
Busy, covered a lot of ground and clearly wants to get forward.
Adam Lallana 7
Worked hard in midfield, chasing and harrying. Klopp loved it.
REUTERS Battling: Adam Lallana was typically hard working
Sadio Mane 7
Booked. Pace caused Tottenham problems, looks an excellent buy.
Philippe Coutinho 6
Booked. Subbed early, has had tight hamstring, restricted him.
Roberto Firmino 7
His movement and runs caused Tottenham’s defence major problems.
Substitutes
Subs used: Origi 6 (Coutinho, 69mins), Sturridge (Mane, 86mins), Stewart (Lallana, 90mins)

Liverpool agree £6million fee with Lazio for transfer of midfielder Luis Alberto
| null | null |
www.mirror.co.uk
|
Liverpool and Lazio have agreed a £6million deal for midfielder Luis Alberto .
The deal see the Reds trouser £4.3million up front with £1.7million to potentially follow in add-ons which would be triggered by European qualification, report the Liverpool Echo .
This comes after negotiations with the Serie A side were finalised this afternoon, with Liverpool including a 30 per cent sell-on clause as part of the deal.
Alberto has been told by Reds boss Jurgen Klopp that he was surplus to requirements at Anfield and will now travel to Rome to discuss personal terms and complete a medical.
Vince Caligiuri The 23-year-old is set for Lazio
The 23-year-old Spaniard leaves Liverpool three years after arriving from Sevilla for £6.8million. He made 12 appearances for the Reds under Brendan Rodgers in the 2013/14 season but struggled to handle the physical demands of Premier League football.
He spent the past two campaigns on loan at Malaga and Deportivo La Coruna in his homeland. Alberto had been linked with a return to Sevilla but that move fell through last month after the clubs failed to agree a fee.
The deal with Lazio - coupled with the loan fee from Deportivo last season - means that Liverpool will effectively recoup what they paid for Alberto in the summer of 2013.

Parents of 12-year-old girl who hunts wild animals for fun face demands for child welfare probe

The video will start in
The parents of 12-year-old girl serial trophy hunter who posted pictures of herself celebrating killing a giraffe have been condemned with some calling for them to be investigated by child services.
Aryanna Gourdin took to social media following her week-long hunt in South Africa during which she and father killed more than a dozen wild animals .
The schoolgirl, who has hunted since the age of seven, boasted of taking a giraffe, wildebeest, impala and zebra, while her dad posted pictures alongside a huge eland antelope he had killed.
But as pressure mounts on Aryanna’s parents to stop her from taking part in the hunts, Eli, 43, has hit back.
He said: “I don’t tell anyone else how to raise their children.
“They don’t understand the conservation aspect of it.
“We’re proud to be hunters and we’ll never apologise for being a hunter.”
Aryanna with her kill
The family, including Aryanna’s mum Katie, 39, and her siblings, have hunted big game all over the world importing their kills back to the US.
The giraffe and zebra the pre-teen killed are due to arrive at the family’s home in Cove, Utah, shortly.
They say each of the animals are more than just trophies.
“They’re more than that, they’re memories,” Gourdin added.
Aryanna in a picture her father took with a dead gireaffe
“Every single animal will have a story and it’s something we’ll pass on to generation to generation.”
Discussing the threats the family have received he added: “I’d hope people aren’t as shallow as that, that they value the animal’s life over hers or over any animal for that matter.”
But since making her pictures public and taking to national television to defend her actions thousands have condemned Aryanna’s parents for teaching her to kill.
Her triumphant pose has enraged many people
Outraged people have demanded child welfare services be called in to assess the family.
Brent Hooey wrote on Twitter: “Eli Gourdin should be reported to child services. Takes his daughter trophy hunting in Africa. Bows & Pink Arrows.
Really?”
Other contacted the Gourdins directly through the schoolgirl’s Facebook page called Braids and Bows.
Alyssa Huggins told her: “Your rationale for hunting these beautiful animals is incredibly sickening.
Her father defended the family's right to hunt
“At 12-years-old and not an adult, I can only blame your parents and those who have brainwashed you into thinking your funds are for the good of the conservation.
“If you want to help conserve, raise funds or donate. Don’t kill. It’s a sad, sad state when you believe that senseless killing is OK.
“I truly hope that one day you will gain a more mature and progressive perspective. My heart hurts for these animals whose lives you’ve taken.”
Dad slammed after allowing eight-year-old daughter to hunt a deer and then eat its heart
Leah Flynn added: “Anyone on the planet could shoot a giraffe, but most of us don’t because we realise the importance of LIFE.
“Sadly your Dad has failed in teaching you that. Grow up and learn from others. Your dad is a douchebag.”
Heather Scarsbrook wrote: “I blame your parents for having no empathy for another living soul, be it man or beast.
Social media user have said the family should be 'ashamed'
“I hope that in time you take into consideration that you actually physically hurt that poor defenceless giraffe and ended its life.
“I hope you learn to love every living creature for ur own sake and theirs... I feel shame for you and I don’t even know you.
“I hope you feel ashamed of yourself as well and learn to change and do better things with your “dad”.
Since posting the pictures it has been revealed Gourdin has previously pleaded guilty to 16 offences involving wildlife and was previously convicted of running a meth lab.
Americans pay thousands of dollars to go on hunts

Lucrative sport loved by Americans
Each year thousands of Americans pay millions of dollars to fulfil their bloodlust on the plains of Africa.
The lure of killing everything from a lion to a leopard, an elephant to a buffalo is a huge attraction.
Africa Safari Hunting Consultants offer a 10-day lion trip including the fee for hunting, baiting and trackers for £37,450 and a 10-day elephant kill for £15,700.
The hunts are conducted by Zimbabwe Hunting Safaris who show pictures of the kills on their website.
Americans generate revenue of an estimated £262million a year in Africa through the hunts.
Trophy hunters imported nearly 32,500 lions, elephants, rhinos, buffalo, and leopards between 2005 and 2014 according the US and international Humane Societies.

Best Bets for Manchester City against West Ham and Middlesbrough at West Brom
| null | null |
www.mirror.co.uk
|
Set-piece playbook king Tony Pulis gives his secret signal for milk and two sugars
Trust head over heart and bet that Gareth McAuley can get the nod to score anytime for West Brom today.
New boys Middlesbrough seem to be fizzing right now - but a trip to The Hawthorns can dampen even the brightest of spirits.
The DRAW is rarely a rash shout with these Baggies for your 1X2 punt.
And my pick from among the miniature prices is YES 'both sides to score' at 6/5 (Hills).
Big veteran defender McAuley looks like being key air power in Tony Pulis's set-piece playbook this season - and though 11/1 (888sport) 'anytime scorer' is borderline, McAuley's worth a light nibble on a grim day for value seekers.
Judging by last week's grim spectacle against Bournemouth and double-grim Europa exit in midweek, West Ham's credentials as top-six candidates have been wildly exaggerated.
No Dimitri Payet both times of course, and the little French sparkler can bring the light to the gloom if he returns at Manchester City today - but we're in the dark on that score.
Punters are learning that starting XI smoke signals from the Olympic Stadium are not written in stone. It's making West Ham's games very hard to price - and the 11/1 away win would look daft if you knew last season's fearless Hammers side was turning up.
If Payet STARTS, risk some West Ham +1.5 goals at 21/20 (Stan James).
What we do know is that Andre Marriner will be on the whistle today. He blows hot and cold but dished out just 12 yellows in his five games featuring either of these sides last season.
It's a fixture with a card-lightish history too. Bet365 might have drawn their line wrong at 4.5 cards - yellow counts 1, red counts 2. Take the 4/6 about UNDER 4.5 cards.

Coleen Rooney says kids are the priority and admits she and Wayne can be 'quite strict'

Coleen Rooney has revealed her children are her main priority now as she tries not to worry about getting back in shape after giving birth.
The wife of Manchester United star Wayne Rooney said the focus is on their sons Kai, Klay and Kit rather than her figure and keeping up a strict fitness regime.
"The more children I’ve had, I’ve been in less of a rush to get back into shape because after three births your body is going to change," she told Now magazine.
coleen_rooney/Instagram Wayne and Coleen pose with their boys
"I think once you have kids they’re more important than how you look... [But] before children I didn’t enjoy the gym that much, but now I do. It’s hard work when I’m there, but it’s an hour off.”
The WAG also opened up on her parenting style, and admitted she can be "quite strict" when it's term time and the boys are at school.
Man Utd via Getty Images They can be quite strict as parents
"They're all bathed and in bed at a certain time. And homework too - I'm strict on that with Kai," she said. "We’re strict when we need to be.
"But during the summer holidays they’re allowed to stay up later. But we want to keep them as we are, down to earth."
Instagram Kai, Kit and Klay
Earlier this summer, Coleen hit back at critics who jduge her for being frequently seen on beach holidays with her kids.
"I'm privileged that I'm able to go on holiday, and if anyone else had the opportunity they would go," she told Mirror Celeb. "You get people criticising you, but it's like, 'Why are you interested in me going on holiday?' It's sad."

Manchester City's Sergio Aguero says trophies are more important than him outscoring Man United hot-shot Zlatan Ibrahimovic
| null | null |
www.mirror.co.uk
|
It'll be a shock if one of Aguero and Ibrahimovic ISN'T Manchester's top scorer this season
Sergio Aguero insists he will not allow a Golden Boot duel with Zlatan Ibrahimovic to get in the way of Manchester City's trophy quest.
Striker Aguero has opened the season in sensational form, scoring three times in two Premier League appearances and helping himself to a Champions League hat-trick against Steaua Bucharest — despite missing TWO penalties in that match.
And with Ibrahimovic also hitting the goal standard after arriving at rivals Manchester United in the summer, there is the very real prospect of a Blue v Red shoot-out at the top of the Premier League.
But Aguero said: “Both Ibrahimovic and I have started the season in great shape, both scoring goals. But I'm not thinking about competing with him. I compete against myself. I try to improve myself from the season before.
Reuters Aguero wants goals so City win silverware — like on THAT day in May 2012
Getty The Argentinean did receive the Premier League Golden Boot two seasons ago
“If I am able to do as well as the previous season then I will keep growing as a player. That's my goal and also improving as a team. Always my goal is to improve myself compared to the year before.
“My goal here at Manchester City every year is to win trophies. The main goal in terms of trophies is to do well in the Champions League, then the Premier League and the rest of the trophies.
“It's always better to win as much as possible. It's difficult to win everything, but we have a great team to be able to win a trophy by the end of the season. We all expect to perform well in the Premier League and try to win the trophy, and also to perform great in the Champions League. Always the goal in our minds is to win a trophy.”
Aguero added: “In the Premier League, any team can be your rival. Last season we expected other teams to be on top: Manchester United, Chelsea, Arsenal... and in the end it was Leicester City who won.
In pictures — Aguero helps Man City beat Stoke 4-1 last weekend:
“Of course, Manchester United have strengthened their squad a lot, but in the Premier League nothing is decided at the beginning of the season. It will start to be decided as of January and February, when we will know who are the likely candidates to win the trophy. Meanwhile, we have to get as many points as possible and by the end of the season, try to get the trophy.”
Aguero revealed that he has been told that he must also become City's first line of defence by new boss Pep Guardiola.
But Guardiola is also aware of the dangers of running his star striker to a stand-still given the Argentine's susceptibility to muscle injuries.
Aguero said: ”Pep has changed the way we have been playing in previous years.
“In my case, he's very demanding of me. I need to be the player who starts the pressure and with my pressure the rest of my team-mates will join me and keep up the pressure.
GETTY New boss Guardiola has Aguero leading the way in chasing down defenders to gain possession
"I'm happy to do that. I am still getting used to it and I need to keep improving even more.
“But, for me, the manager's arrival is great, because with his way I'll have more chances to score and hopefully we will be able to win more games.
“I always respect the style of play every manager has. I try to adapt myself to what the manager wants as fast as possible.
“Pep has brought a way of play he has always used. We need to get used to it as soon as possible and I'm also enjoying the new concepts he's teaching us. We need to keep working this way.”
Aguero added: “Guardiola is the boss now and we need listen to him. What he tells me is to make me a better player. If he tells me anything is because he wants me to grow and improve. I need to keep working hard to achieve something important myself.

“After talking to him a while, he hopes to achieve something big. He's a very cheerful manager, he's always talking to you, cheering you up and pushing you. “You can tell he loves football, he loves his job and he tries to teach us his concepts and what he wants.
"We need to enjoy but always be working hard.”
Guardiola is mindful of not asking Aguero to do the kind of running that will blunt his sharpness.
He said: “I know the history of Sergio and he was always three or four months injured. We are going to try to avoid that by trying to control his condition after games.
Reuters City are desperate for Aguero to avoid the injuries that have marred previous seasons
“I know that the most important thing is he’s trying to help us and trying to make what we believe that is the best for him and the team - and that is enough for me.
“I know Sergio will not always be a physical defender and a fighter like someone who runs 30 or 40 metres, and I don't want that.
"But from the beginning we spoke about him helping us to make that first action in three, four, five or six metres."

Coronation Street cobbles transformed into badminton court as ITV switches off so people take up sport

The Corrie cobbles became an impromtu badminton court as members of the public were invited to switch of their TVs and take part in sport.
The event was one of hundreds up and down the country which were part of a national sports day called I Am Team GB organised by ITV and the National Lottery.
Olympic bronze medallist in the Badmington doubles Marcus Ellis played against Corrie fans who had turned off their TVs to take part.
Viwers reacted with both delight and bafflement as ITV was shut down for an hour as part of the event with some joking the blackout was “the best thing” they had ever seen on the channel.
ITV I am TeamGB, held at The Coronation street set ITV Manchester Becky and Ellie Downie
Double Olympic champion gymnast Max Whitlock was on hand to pull the lever to switch off all ITV channels in a clip aired just before programming stopped at 9.30am.
Many Britons took up the challenge, tweeting their activities during the hour.
One sports fan revealed he was going for a run, writing on the social networking site: “Great and brave idea £ITV , one day I won’t be able to £run but today isn’t that day!”
Another revealed she had just been for a “45-minute spin class”, adding “good for @itv, let’s get moving in whatever way we can”.

However, many joked ITV’s static screen was top viewing, while some refused to go out and get moving.
“The best thing I’ve ever seen on ITV,” one Twitter user wrote, and another added: “I’m more likely to get out and run when ITV shows programmes.”
Another viewer said they would merely choose another channel, adding: “ITV shutting down for an hour to encourage me to exercise is going to be a big workout for my thumb on the remote.”
After returning home from Rio with their biggest medals haul in 108 years, many members of Team GB used the event to join members of the public at sporting activities across the country.

Over the bank holiday weekend, hundreds of sports venues and clubs are opening their doors free of charge as part of a collaboration between the National Lottery and ITV.
Whitlock, who joined members of the public for some handball at the Copper Box Arena in London’s Olympic Park, said: “I first started gymnastics in Hemel Hempstead at Sapphire School of Gymnastics.
“Knowing how friendly and life-changing clubs like this can be, I’d encourage everyone to get involved in I Am Team GB - the nation’s biggest-ever sports day.”
Soap enthusiasts were also able to head to the Coronation Street set in Manchester, where Olympic champion cyclist Elinor Barker was taking part in an event on the cobbles.
Other Olympians joining in include rowers Karen Bennett, Katie Greves and Helen Glover, cox Zoe de Toledo, swimmer Jazz Carlin, trampolinist Bryony Page and gymnast Amy Tinkler.

Rosie and Ruby Formosa stole the show earlier today when they appeared on Good Morning Britain .
The conjoined twins were not expected to survive the five-hour operation to separate them after they were born joined at the abdomen.
Speaking to Ranvir Singh and Charlotte Hawkins their mum Angela revealed that it still makes her "emotional" talking about their journey.
Joined by older daughter Lily, Angela said: "It was a hard time, it still makes me feel emotional."
The girls are now getting ready to go to school, something that the family didn't think would ever be possible.
Before: Rosie and Ruby Formosa when they were born
After: Rosie and Ruby Formosa as they prepare for school
"They were tiny going off for their surgery," added Angela. "It's been an eye-opener, bringing up two babies and for them to have lived... it's just a joyous moment."
The girls, now four, were born joined at the abdomen and shared part of their intestine.
They were separated by emergency surgery at Great Ormond Street Hospital two hours after they were born in 2012.
Their parents, Angela and Daniel, had been warned the identical twins had a low chance of survival when medics discovered they were conjoined.
But, amazingly, they will now start primary school next month.
On the GMB sofa
Angela said it was “heartbreaking” when she discovered the girls had the medical condition that accounts for one in 200,000 births.
"Every milestone is special. I've been looking forward to them going to school for so long."
Angela also told viewers that the two have a special bond, despite being seperated.
"They are very, very close," the mother said. "When Ruby goes to get a drink she gets one for Rosie as well."
Too cute
Dr Joe Curry, who now looks after the girls, added: "Yeah, it's great to see the process and the results of what we do."
Viewers loved their appearance and took to Twitter to say how "cute" the family were.
"These girls are so sweet," said one early morning viewer.

Twins 1
PA That special moment
Angela previously told Mirror Online how difficult things have been, she said: “At 16 weeks, they sent me to King’s College Hospital, where they found the connection between the girls. I was already worried they were monoamniotic (where twins share an amniotic sac) and conjoined was the worst outcome.
“I was really scared and upset because I was told there was a high possibility that the girls wouldn’t survive the pregnancy.
PA
“If they did survive the pregnancy, they might not survive the birth, then they might not survive surgery.
“They couldn’t tell what was connecting them. I didn’t prepare to bring them home. It wasn’t until they were in hospital and they’d had their operation that my husband started getting everything ready for them at home.”

Renee Graziano did it for the American's and became the third runner-up in Celebrity Big Brother .
Losing out on the win to Stephen Bear and runner-up Ricky Norwood, the Mob Wives star received a mixed reaction from the crowd as she was welcomed by a succession of boos and cheers.
Speaking to Emma Willis in her exit interview, Renee had plenty to say about her tumultuous relationship with Bear - and insisted her hostile behaviour towards him wasn't because she fancied him.
"In the beginning I thought Bear had great legs and beautiful eyes!" she told Emma when asked if she found Bear attractive.
"I was being honest but my type is much taller and darker - not Bear."

WENN Go Renee!
Recalling where their relationship went wrong, she explained: "I think it went wrong when he decided to question my loyalty and play the Bear game.
"Loyalty in my home is everything, that's something you have to be born with
"(But) I don't hold anything against anybody, it is what it is - it's fair game. We are are on a good note now. I'm going to keep it positive."
WENN Will she speak to Bear again?
Renee did have a lot of kind words to say about her partner-in-crime, Aubrey O'Day , who she credited for giving her a reason to stay in the house for as long as she did.
"Without Aubrey I don't think I'd have made it as far as I did - I was planning on getting kicked out immediately with my mouth.
"(But) I'm third that's great. I never dreamed about making it as far as i did. My son is going to be super proud!"

Jack Black is that you? Star looks unrecognisable with newly dyed blonde hair in Los Angeles
| null | null |
www.mirror.co.uk

Jack Black has undergone a fair few transformations over the years, but he could have passed fans in the street without getting a second glance with his new look.
The School of Rock star showed off newly dyed blonde hair as he stepped out of Sammy's Camera in Los Angeles this week, with the lighter mane completely transforming his look.
The 47-year-old revealed a fuller frame in a loose purple t-shirt and black jeans, and appeared happy and relaxed as he smiled off into the distance.
Wearing sunglasses, he looked like a totally different person in comparison to his Tenacious D days.
FameFlynet.uk.com Jack Black left Sammy's Camera in Los Angeles
FameFlynet.uk.com Jack showed off a fuller frame
Jack carried a rucksack over his shoulder and wore trainers for the dressed-down look, just months after he was targeted by cruel Twitter trolls in a shocking death hoax.
A message posted on Tenacious D's official Twitter page in June - which included a spelling error - claimed: "I'm sad to officially annouce the death of Jack Black at the age of 46, rest in peace brother." (sic)
FameFlynet.uk.com He dressed down for the outing
It was followed five minutes later by: "#RipJackBlack"
A further tweet an hour later claimed: "It is with a heavy heart I am to announce that Jack Black passed away last night at 3:37am. The cause of death is yet unknown."

However it later emerged the entire thing was a hoax and Jack Black is NOT dead .
It wasn't the first time the Hollywood joker was the victim of a death hoax. Earlier this year a rumour went around the internet that he had passed away, but was traced back to a hoax site. The same thing happened two years ago as well.

The two minute fight sees one of the men take a savage blow to the face and blood streams down his face as a result.
It is not known what happened to the men after the video finishes.

Magaluf is currently on a drive to rid itself of its downmarket image after it made headlines round the world two summers ago when a bar sex video involving a British teenager went viral.

New bylaws aimed at cleaning up Magaluf’s battered image were passed by the local council in May last year with all-party support.
They included a ban on night-time street drinking and changes to the controversial pub crawls which have afflicted the party resort.
Under the modified by-laws, police were given powers to fine people consuming alcohol in groups who were making noise and being a nuisance, especially between the peak drinking hours of 10pm and 8am.

Liverpool submit £11million bid for Borussia Dortmund starlet Christian Pulisic

Liverpool have made an offer for the 17-year-old
Liverpool have offered Borussia Dortmund £11million for American wonderkid Christian Pulisic.
But it is believed that Dortmund will resist all attempts from Jurgen Klopp, their former coach, to lure the winger away from the club.
Klopp worked with Pulisic during his time at Dortmund, where the 17-year-old was in the club’s academy.
He became an instant hit when he was promoted to the first-team back in February, where he scored two goals.
Despite his tender age, Pulisic is already a full USA international having earned six caps and played during this summer's Copa America.

The size of Klopp's opening offer signals his intention to get the deal over the line but it appears that he will struggle to do business with his former club.
Liverpool have just one more week to get the deal done before the transfer window closes.

Artists lead campaign to stop demolition of London's Vittoria Wharf to make way for a footbridge
| null | null |
www.mirror.co.uk

A campaign has been launched to save Vottoria Wharf from the bulldozers
Some of Britain’s most celebrated artists including BAFTA nominee Mike O’Leary, ice sculptor Anne Marie Taberdo and painter Ben Wakeling are facing evictions... for a footbridge.
The London Legacy Development Corporation (LLDC), who still don't have full planning permission, are giving artists the boot from London’s Vittoria Wharf on September 5.
Nima Tehranchi, leading the campaign to save the building, says: "We need to let these places flourish, not let them be crushed by the bulldozers of construction."
Ironically Hackney Wick was designated as a "creative quarter" by the LLDC, but the organisation is now set to knock down a warehouse complex that is home to many artists, writers and creatives.
Kirsten Allen, who is also spearheading the Save Vittoria Wharf! campaign, said: "Creative communities like Vittoria Wharf are vital to the future of this country."
Hackney Wick has the highest density of artists in Europe producing some of the country's finest creators.

The Legacy Communities Scheme, which granted planning permission for the bridge in 2012, says it undertook extensive consultation with the pubic.
The LLDC also said it has given tenants one month's extra notice to move out and is also providing support to help relocate them, despite having no legal obligation to do so.
But Tehranchi adds: "We don't need any public money to be spent, we can find the funds for the land to be bought and there to be a model we can create for there to be a true cultural hub. This is something that could be replicated around the country."
Artist Ben Wakeling, who has been working from his studio in Vittoria Wharf for the last seven years, has opened London's first mental health gallery titled Outsider Gallery London.
He said: "This gallery might not have been created had it not been for places like Vittoria Wharf.
"Young artists need grass root places like Vittoria Wharf and low rent in order to have the time and space to grow. Lots of artists are migrating away and that's not good for the city."

Westminster's Dog of the Year died last night, after losing her nine-month battle with cancer.
Lady, 15, died yesterday, leaving owner and Conservative MP Andrea Jenkyns "heartbroken."
The fourth generation Schnauzer, Jack Russell and Labrador cross had already recovered from being run over a decade ago, and learned to walk again.
Lady beat 16 competitors from across the political spectrum to share Westminster's prestigious Dog of the Year award with Ms Jenkyns other dog, four-year-old Mini-Schnauzer Godiva.
She had been receiving treatment at Abbey House veterinary hospital in Morely, Leeds.
Lady and Godiva won this year's Westminster Dog of the Year contest
Ms Jenkyns said on Facebook: "I'm heartbroken to announce that my wonderful dog Lady passed away last night after a nine month battle with cancer.
"As a dog lover I was so proud when she and Godiva won Westminster Dog of the Year last year. She has been my constant companion for fifteen years and I will miss her terribly."

The video will start in
A woman who sparked mass hysteria on a New York subway when she let live crickets and worms loose into a packed carriage has been arrested.
Aspiring actress Zaida Pugh posted an emotional video on Facebook before she was charged by NYPD following the prank.
Footage filmed by fellow commuters shows Pugh becoming increasingly distressed by a group of teenagers before releasing the creepy crawlies then appearing to wet herself.
Riders on the D Train were locked in with the bugs for half an hour during Wednesday evening rush hour after a passenger pulled the emergency brake on the Manhattan Bridge.

Pugh was arrested and charged with reckless endangerment.
She also faces charges of obstructing governmental administration, false reporting an incident and disorderly conduct.
NYPD chief of detectives Robert Boyce said: "She put people at risk."
Passengers, he said, "could have had heart attacks" or other issues, or been emotionally scarred by the incident.
In a Facebook video posted on Tuesday, Pugh apologised for the disturbance and said she had received death threats.
She also vowed to delete videos of all her past stunts from the internet.
"I don't know what's going to happen to me," she said.
She added: "I wish there was something I could do to change how you guys look at me."

On Friday, Pugh came forward claiming to have staged the stunt as a prank to raise awareness of how people treat the homeless .
She said she was not concerned about a backlash from inconvenienced commuters.
"Of course they'll be angry with me, but I guess I'm just doing me. I'm waking people up with my shows, my acts," she said.

After the crickets were set free, some of them jumped on passengers, who were not in on the prank.
"Never seen a crowd get so panicked so fast, everyone rushed to the other side of the train," one rider, Ezra Mechaber, wrote on Twitter.
"Mass hysteria in a locked, enclosed space is something else."

Nobody can believe what this woman is reading on a train so they're coming up with theories to explain it
Some people whipped out smartphones and began recording.
In one video posted online, the woman yelled, "Why'd you have to hit me?" and "My crickets!"
In another, the woman is seen screaming uncontrollably as riders tried to console her.
Witness Eddie Going stated "Pranks are one thing, I love a good prank. This was more than that. She planned on dumping the insects on people, she planned on causing mayhem, and chaos -- she may not have planned on the emergency brake being pulled, but it was pulled. New Yorkers are good people, we're good sports...but when you mess with our time, now you're looking for trouble."
The D train, which connects the boroughs of the Bronx with Brooklyn via Manhattan, was stopped on the bridge spanning the East River.
After it began moving again, police officers met the train at the next station.

Paralympic legend David Weir has blasted Games organisers for discriminating against disabled athletes

Paralympic legend David Weir has blasted Games organisers for discriminating against disabled athletes two weeks before events begin in Rio.
The six-time gold medal-winning wheelchair racer said sport chiefs’ efforts to back out of funding the Paralympics were an “embarrassment”.
Officials were criticised after it emerged up to 10 nations may not be able to take part because of funding cuts earlier this month.
British paralympic chiefs warned they were looking for money to pay for transport after grants were delayed – a £60million bailout has since been promised by organisers to rescue the Games.

Weir, 37, said: “I think they were struggling with money and then said ‘Well, it’s only the Paralympics.’”
But he warned it was only after the International Paralympic Committee stepped in that funding was put back in place.
He said: “The Rio government didn’t have a lot of respect for the Paralympics.
“But the IPC put their foot down and said ‘Actually, you’ve promised, and you’ve got to deliver, because the Olympics and Paralympics are both on an equal playing field in the bid. Both had to have the same funding.
“They put their foot down and Rio have got a bit scared and they’re going to have to deliver, because they would look embarrassed if they did not deliver what they promised in the bid.”

He added: “That’s not very good for the spirit of the sport - it doesn’t look good on you.
“It’s not the message they should be sending.”
Amid rumours some venues lack sufficient disabled access and accommodation is not yet ready for the Paralympics Weir, who took two golds at Beijing in 2008 and four at London 2012 , said athletes would wait and see whether Rio was ready for them upon their arrival, but hoped it would not distract TeamGB from its medal-winning ambitions.
He said: “I’m worried about what’s gone on with some of the nations not getting there, and transport and stuff like that, but it looks like they’re resolving things quickly, which is a positive thing for me.

“All you can do is watch when you wait and see when we get there. It looks like the IPC and British Athletics and BPO are working to help us deliver on that track.
“All we’ve got to do is get there and do that.”
Asked if he thought other nations might try to back out of funding Paralympic competitions in future, he said Rio’s organisers had quickly learned their lesson after negative publicity.
He said: “I don’t think this will happen again - I don’t think the host nation will want to have the same attention on them, with problems around suggestions they’re not supporting disabled people.

“It doesn’t look good for them, does it? I think Tokyo will be a different story.”
But, after being tipped for at least five medals in Rio, he insisted he would be happy just to bring home one.
He said: “I never put a target on my back – it’s always been the way that people assume I’m going to win things, but in London I just wanted to win one, and I got four.
“That was a special moment, but the sport’s moved on, I’ve moved on, I’d just be happy with a medal.
“Realistically I’ve got to not put too much pressure on myself so I can deliver at the highest level.”
He added: “Watching those guys from TeamGB win so many medals in the Olympics has really inspired me for the next couple of weeks in training, to make sure that I go out there and deliver too.”

Stephen Bear and Katie Price played a game of 'egg chicken' on Loose Women earlier today but it all went wrong.
The Celebrity Big Brother winner appeared on the ITV Daytime show and was grilled by Price alongside Kaye Adams, Sherrie Hewson and Martine McCutcheon.
After revealing some interesting facts about himself - like his brother being a multi-millionaire and not liking his housemates comparing him to cancer - Adams insisted he should pay for breaking so many eggs in the CBB house.
Before long the reality star was sat in a chair alongside Price as they broke eggs on their heads - with Kaye informing that "only" seven of the dozen were raw.

Also in the show, Katie was slammed claims she's 'pimping out' her children on Instagram, insisting they can use the series to further their own showbiz careers.
The 38-year-old star has broken the age Terms and Conditions of the photo sharing website by allowing her 11-year-old son Junior and nine-year-old daughter Princess to join the service even though the minimum age is 13.
Katie has been criticised for her decision to allow her two kids - her offspring with her ex-husband Peter Andre - on the platform and she has now defended her parental decision insisting the pair need to be on Instagram due to their burgeoning TV and media careers.
ITV Katie blasts claims
Video loading Click to play Tap to play The Live Event you are trying to watch is either unavailable or has not started Please refresh this page in your browser to reload this live event video
Speaking on the panel of Loose Women on Tuesday, she said: "No buts, I don't care. This is the point I am in no way a bad parent. I've got five beautiful, healthy, loving and well-mannered children.
"My kids have been brought up in the industry with their dad and me on TV shows, everyone knows who they are. Now they are being booked themselves for TV shows, modelling jobs and stuff like that. Social media is the future... The accounts are open but if you look on it they have contacts for work, they're getting booked for things, it's a business thing...
"They've grown up in the industry, they're dad had them on his reality show for five years, they've been on my shows and they're on my horse show."
ITV Price reveals all
Katie also revealed Junior and Princess - who appear with her on her new TLC TV show Katie Price's Pony Club - have very strict rules they must abide by to keep their accounts and she vets everything that they post and she won't allow either of them on any other social media platforms.
The former glamour model also insists she has done nothing out of the ordinary by allowing her two kids on Instagram as most of their school friends already have accounts.
ITV Katie not happy
She explained: "I won't allow them on Facebook, Snapchat, Twitter. All their friends who are nine and 11 are on Instagram, some are open, some are private. I've been saying, 'No, no, no.' Look, the show is out with them and I went, 'If you want to be on Instagram, I have your password and you go on it when I'm next to you or you're not on it at all.' Anyone who tries to direct message them I delete it. So I'm in absolute in full control of it.
"But what can I do? They want to be normal, they're like, 'All our friends are on it.' Princess wants to speak to her friends. I'm like, 'But you've been at school with them all day, what else is there left to say?' But I remember I would want to phone my friends when I got back from school talking rubbish because that's what you do ... I will protect them with my heart."

Touching moment terminally ill woman gets to see unborn grandchild for first time thanks to kind staff
| null | null |
www.mirror.co.uk

This was the bittersweet moment a terminally-ill cancer patient was able to see her unborn grandchild for the first time.
Angela Smith, 47, is battling Hodgkin’s lymphoma and has been left bed-bound while permanently on oxygen in hospital.
Her daughter Shannon, 20, was due to get her 25-week scan on Tuesday but was heartbroken that her mum was unable to be by her side, the Daily Record reported .
Following a heartfelt appeal to staff at the Victoria Hospital in Kirkcaldy, Fife, Shannon’s doctor arranged to have the ultrasound machine taken up to the ward where Angela is staying.
The scan was extra special
The touching moment when Shannon clutched her mother’s hand while smiling through the tears as they looked at the unborn baby girl was caught on camera.
They were also joined by Angela’s mum Ann – meaning four generations of the same family were included in the memorable picture.
Shannon, from Cardenden, said: “When mum was diagnosed with cancer in September last year, it was the most devastating news we’ve ever had to hear.
“Still to this day it feels like a bad dream but it has brought us closer together as a family.
“We were all devastated as a family but got together and tried to do her house up for her getting out of the hospital. Her friends were a big help too.”
Angela has Hodgkin’s lymphoma
Shannon, who is due to give birth on December 4, continued: “I’m so close to my mum and I was heart-broken when she was unable to make any of the scans. I wanted her by my side to see her grandchild but after she became bed-bound, this just became impossible.”
Desperate to give her mum some good news, Shannon pleaded with her consultant Dr Graham Tydeman to see if there was anything he could do.
And the whole family were over the moon when staff quickly arranged to move the appointment to Angela’s bedside.
Shannon said: “I was overwhelmed. I had to ask Dr Tydeman if he could really do that for me – it was very emotional.
“He knew the situation with my mum and really wanted to help us.
“He arranged it all very quickly and that same day he got the ultrasound machine to my mum’s room so she could see her grandchild and so myself and my mum could share that amazing experience.
“My mum was absolutely speechless and absolutely amazed – she couldn’t stop smiling.
“She never thought she would get to see the scan and to get this opportunity meant the world to her. The experience has given my mum an emotional boost and since then she has been unable to stop smiling.
“Even the mention of ‘the bump’ has her grinning from ear to ear.
Angela was able to see her unborn grandchild
“The doctor and all the staff at the hospital have been great.”
Shannon added that the whole experience has shown how “inspirational, strong and upbeat” her mother has been throughout the diagnosis and prays it gives hope to other families affected by cancer.
Dr Graham Tydeman, consultant obstetrician specialising in foetal medicine for NHS Fife, said: “I know Shannon quite well and she was clearly looking a little flat that day. I asked if she wanted a scan and that’s when she told me her mum was in upstairs.
“So I said, ‘Well we can scan you upstairs if you like’. It was a surprise that the grandmother was there too.
“It was really quite moving because the scan was just simply so they could bond and have four generations in one room. The clinic had just finished and I rang the ward where her mum is to check it was okay with them and just went up and showed them all the baby.
“It was a really special time.
“It’s a privilege to be able to dip into people’s lives – 10 minutes out of my time, no inconvenience at all and I was more than happy to help.”

Justin Bieber RETURNS to Instagram as fans search for rumoured sex tape
| null | null |
www.mirror.co.uk

Justin Bieber has made his return to Instagram a week after deleted his account on the social media website.
The Love Yourself singer had warned fans he would be setting his page to private after abusive comments directed at his girlfriend Sofia Richie , and he went one further by leaving the site altogether.
Now, Justin has made his big comeback and reactivated his public profile - although he is yet to post any new content for his 77.8 million followers.
He's baaaaaaack
It comes after a sex tape hashtag was trending on Twitter, leaving Beliebers frantically searching the internet for proof.
Fans went wild on Sunday after pictures emerged of Justin showing his bare bum during a raunchy PDA with new girlfriend Sofia Richie on holiday in Mexico - and now rumours are doing the rounds that they were filmed having sex with the video leaking online.
Snaps published by Mail Online show Justin with his buttocks showing and he has been accused by fans of having sex in public after the steamy session with Sofia.
Mirror Celeb has reached out to Bieber's rep for a comment.

It seems an unidentified chap in a white shirt appears to have interrupted the new couple and Justin ends up rearranging himself as he bares his behind.
One fan wrote on Twitter: "Thanks Justin. I officially don't know how to defend you in front of my friends/family anymore. # justinssextapeleakedparty."
Another added: "LOL at Justin Bieber. Talking about privacy when you literally have sex in public. Cmon fam, you know they always catch you."
But not everyone was convinced, with one follower writing: "You know celeb fangirl Twitter is made up of 14 yo girls when # justinssextapeleakedparty starts trending when he kisses his gf topless."
Another added: "i like justin but im living for this drama # justinssextapeleakedparty."
WENN.com The pair were getting steamy
If there was any doubt over Justin and Sofia's relationship status, the steamy snaps of them packing on some serious PDA confirmed they're very much an item.
Bieber whisked the 18-year-old off to Cabo San Lucas, Mexico, for her surprise 18th birthday present and the young pair were spotted getting hot and heavy under the sun.
One shot shows the Love Yourself singer, who is wearing a pair of light pink shorts and a grey baseball cap, planting a passionate kiss on the blonde who has her legs wrapped around his waist and her arms wrapped tightly around his neck.
Another seriously steamy shot shows her lying on her back with her legs in the air wearing a black bikini top and white bottoms, while Justin leans in to kiss her.

Are aliens trying to contact us? Astronomers have picked up a strong radio signal from deep space
| null | null |

The mysterious signals could potentially point to intelligent life beyond Earth
A Russian radio telescope has discovered a mysterious signal coming from a star in deep space, raising the possibility of intelligent life beyond Earth.
An international team of astronomers from the Search for Extraterrestrial Intelligence ( SETI ) is tracking the signals in the hope of uncovering their origin.
The baffling " alien " broadcast was first picked up by the Ratan-600 telescope in Zelenchukskaya, Russia in May 2015 but was kept under wraps until now.
The signals are thought to be coming from star HD164595, which is located in the Hercules star constellation some 95 light years away.
The star is just 99% of the size of Earth's own sun. So far, just one planet - named HD 164595b - has been discovered orbiting the star.
Getty The signals were originally discovered by a Russian radio telescope
The planet is thought to be a similar size to Neptune, but with a warmer atmosphere.
While the experts have not gone as far as claiming that the bizarre signal is the result of an extraterrestrial species, they have said that "permanent monitoring" is essential.
Based on the findings, Claudio Maccone of the University of Turin in Italy is set to call for continuous tracking of the signal during a presentation planned for the International Academy of Astronautics 2016 meeting on 27 September.
The prominent space scientist has also suggested that the signal could come from a "type I civilization".
Getty Are aliens trying to contact us?
The phrase comes from the Kardashev scale, which was developed in the 1960s and named after Russian astrophysicist Nikolai Kardashev.
The scale, which goes from I to III, suggests that a type I civilisation would have a similar level of technological development as Earth.
As the signals are being broadcast over such a wide spectrum, it is difficult for experts to tell exactly what they are coming from.
It is possible that the signals could be the result of stellar noise such as a quasar.
SETI's own radio telescope in California is now scanning the relevant coordinates in an attempt to find and track the signals.

A brave beautician who broke 27 bones and lost five pints of blood in a horror car smash is learning to walk again.
Nearly a year after a collision pushed Hollie Smith to death’s door the 23-year-old is beginning an arduous journey to get back on her feet.
But she says she can never wear heels again, and even after two years learning to walk again she could be forced to always use a stick.
Her catalogue of sickening injuries included crushed legs, a fractured skull, a broken neck and back and compound fractures that forced snapped bones through her flesh.

The Yves Saint Laurent beauty manager was left lying on her back unable to move for six weeks after the accident on her way home from work in November 2015.
She said: “I was told that if I moved my head, it would be paralysed.”
Thanks to a five-pint blood transfusion she pulled through, and has now made her first steps on the road to recovery.

But it could take two years before her life returns to normal - and says she will be haunted by the smash for the rest of her life.
Hollie, from Kenilworth, said: “Walking is still really hard – I have to use crutches, a zimmer frame, and a wheelchair when I am out of the house.
“I’m having physio at Walsgrave Hospital and private physio twice a week, and I will be getting personal training and hydrotherapy to help rebuild up my muscles.

"I can’t stand up in the shower and get up and down off the floor yet.
“I am told it will be two years before I can walk properly but I may always need a stick and I’ll have to have knee replacements when the arthritis gets too sore to handle, and I can’t wear heels.”
But Hollie, who has been charting her recovery through Facebook, said she was lucky to even be alive after being trapped in her car for an hour and 20 minutes.

She said: “The firemen who cut me out of my car saw me on Facebook, messaged me and basically said they were surprised I lived.
"The paramedics said I was time critical, and they couldn't see me surviving due to the trauma my body had suffered with the injuries."
Hollie is now calling for more blood donors to come forward and register for the first time after her life-saving transfusion.

She added: "I nearly died and whoever donated that blood did an amazing thing by saving a life!
"So I'm urging people who can, to give blood. You will save lives!
"Please support Missing Type and register as a new donor at blood.co.uk .”

Liverpool transfer news and rumours: Lazar Markovic to stay at Anfield?
| null | null |
www.mirror.co.uk

Markovic looks likely to miss out on a move away from Anfield
Liverpool flop Lazar Markovic is set to stay at Anfield despite the Reds' attempts to move him out on deadline day.
That is according to The Express, who say Markovic has failed to secure a move away from Anfield despite only being on the fringes of the first team.
Markovic, 22, is currently on international duty with Serbia, and has apparently had interest from Sporting Lisbon, Schalke, AC Milan and Newcastle.
However, there are seemingly no wheels in motion for him to depart Merseyside today, and he looks likely to be at the club until January at least.
Ings likely to stay at Anfield
Liverpool FC via Getty Liverpool are keen to hold on to Ings
Liverpool have reportedly rejected a £20million bid for Danny Ings - one of EIGHT approaches made for the England Under-21 international.
That is according to ESPN, who say Jurgen Klopp is keen to retain the services of the former Burnley striker who is returning to full fitness after a long injury layoff.
Ings has only appeared for the Reds' Under-23 side so far this season but the 24-year-old will play a part this term, insists Klopp.
"We're counting on Ingsy. He is a fantastic boy," Klopp said earlier this month. "He was injured since October last year and he needed time. Now he's getting better and better."
No approach for Luan, insists Gremio president
Getty No bid has been made for Luan, insists Gremio president
Gremio president Romildo Bozan has insisted there has been no approach from Liverpool for star forward Luan.
Reports had suggested the Reds had lodged a £29.9million bid, but Bozan claims that is not the case.
Speaking to Globo Esporte, Bozan said: "We have received no proposal for Luan. We have already previously reviewed an offer for Walace and rejected it.
"Gremio wants to keep its best players as we hope to end the year with a title."
Sakho rejects Besiktas loan
GETTY Sakho is digging his heels in
Mamadou Sakho has turned down a move to Besiktas.
Liverpool are desperate to shift the defender before the window closes, but he is refusing to budge, after also rejecting offers from Stoke and West Brom, writes Mirror Football's David Maddock.
Manager Jurgen Klopp has told him he needs to move to get first team football, after explaining he’s now fifth in the Anfield pecking order.
But the international centre half is holding out for a move to France or Italy, and he declined the chance to talk to the Turkish club.
Klopp plans to axe FOUR Reds stars
Getty The quartet could all leave today
Jurgen Klopp will wield his axe today to clear out the deadwood from his Liverpool squad.
Klopp hopes to offload outcasts Mario Balotelli, Mamadou Sakho, Lazar Markovic and Tiago Ilori as part of a cull of unwanted players.
Balotelli is in the south of France negotiating a move to Nice, writes Mirror Football's David Anderson.
The Italian striker flew out last night and is scheduled to have a medical today and agree terms.
Klopp will also tell Sakho to find a new club after the French centre-half rejected moves to Stoke and West Brom and he is no longer part of the German's first-team plans.

England explored capping Frenchman Steven N'Zonzi reveals his old Blackburn boss Sam Allardyce
| null | null |
www.mirror.co.uk
|
N'Zonzi's father approached Allardyce after his son had lived in England for six years
Sam Allardyce has revealed how a bid to discover if Frenchman Steven N’Zonzi was eligible to play for England ended in disappointment.
The new Three Lions boss, who signed N’Zonzi for Blackburn from Amiens of France in a £500,000 deal in 2009, was asked by the player’s father if the midfielder’s six-year stint in English football with Rovers and Stoke could open the door for an England cap.
Big Sam put the Football Association on the case – but it was discovered that N’Zonzi, set for a second season of Champions League football with Sevilla after helping them win last season's Europa League final, had represented France at Under-21 level when he was still at Amiens.

"This lad won Player of the Year at Blackburn in his very first year having come from the French Second Division. We finished tenth that year," said Allardyce.
"I’m not surprised he’s got to Sevilla in the end — a club of that level and that size. That’s not being disrespectful to Blackburn or Stoke.
Steve Bond/Pinnacle It emerged had N'Zonzi played for France Under-21s before ever moving to England
"It would have been of interest for me and we did explore it.”
FIFA regulations would have allowed N'Zonzi, now 27, to switch countries if he hadn’t been capped by France at junior level while he was earning his living in his homeland.

The Great British Bake Off contestants are dunked in at the deep end this week – and not all can take the pressure.
It’s biscuit week and judge Paul Hollywood is not shy in letting them know they are crumbling.
Welsh contestant Louise Williams drops all her biscuits as she puts them in the oven. With her hands shaking, she groans: “I’ll have to start again – hopefully I have enough mixture.”
Val Stones then breaks some of her creations taking them out of the oven and admits: “These are not high-end of the market.” And Candice Brown says: “Mine are horrendous.”
We won’t ruin it for you, but Paul dishes out a string of insults, telling one baker “you have consistency issues”. Another hears “what we are eating is like a stale biscuit” and a female hopeful is told “these look hideous, but they taste amazing”. The episode also has less innuendo than normal – largely because Sue Perkins is AWOL and it is hosted solely by Mel Giedroyc.
BBC/PA The contestants have a torrid time
Any fears there is a Bake Off crisis proved groundless though, as a show spokesman told Square Eyes: “Sue wasn’t able to join the team in the tent this week, but she will be back next week.”

In fact, the best gag of the week comes from Candice, who creates a pub featuring drinks from biscuits at one point and asks Mel to “grab her jugs”. Oo-er missus.
The pub is one of the showstopper cakes this week and they are also a real mixed bag, with two cakes collapsing just as Mel tells the contestants to stop baking.
BBC Mel and Sue, but where was Sue?
We’re not saying it was all bad and we like a few mishaps, but we reckon Mary Berry had a job to stop Paul getting rid of more than one baker.

Sharon Osbourne says sex addict Ozzy cheated on her with five women in five different countries

Sharon and Ozzy Osbourne are rumoured to be back together, but that doesn't mean the X Factor judge has forgiven her husband just yet.
The red head and Black Sabbath rocker's relationship recently hit the headlines for all the wrong reasons after it emerged he had been cheating on her with hairdresser Michelle Pugh.
Sharon kicked him out of their Los Angeles home and Ozzy later revealed he had been dealing with a sex addiction for six years and had cheated on his wife with several women.
Opening up about her husband's addiction, Sharon reveals Ozzy had been going behind her back for a lot longer than people thought, and said he cheated on her with five different women in five different countries.
"The s**t that's been going on with my husband recently, it's been going on for about five years but people are talking about it now," she told The Sunday Times magazine .
"We've survived everything, drink, drugs and now it's women."

Referring to Ozzy's most recent flame, Michelle, Sharon blasted her as a "bunny boiler" and said she's not surprised one of Ozzy's lovers eventually wanted more.
The 63-year-old also revealed she's been on anti-depressants for 20 years, but said they stopped working last year.
"I had a very bad time last year. I had a kind of breakdown. I couldn't speak, I'd get out of bed to go to the studio, come back and get into bed," she added.

Sharon, who wed Ozzy in 1982, also previously revealed her husband will be entering rehab when the Paranoid stars finish their final tour in February next year.
In an emotional confession on The Talk, she said: "After the (Black Sabbath) tour, he goes in as an inpatient for three months. He's working at it. It's hard because it affects the whole family. And, it's quite embarrassing to talk about.
"Somehow drugs and drink is more acceptable I think. When it's somebody that has a sex addiction, it's embarrassing. He's come out and admitted it finally. It's very, very hard. It's been going on for at least six years."

Newly discovered 'world's oldest man' is 145-years-old but says he's ready to die

The world's oldest man has been named as an Indonesian who is believed to be a staggering 145-years-old – but who wants to die.
Mbah Gotho has emerged from obscurity with documentation recognised by Indonesian officials revealing he was born on December 31, 1870.
He has outlived all 10 of his siblings as well as his four wives, the last of whom died in 1988.
All of his children have also died, and now he is survived by his grandchildren, great grandchildren, and great-great grandchildren.
If correct, that makes him significantly older than the verified oldest person in the world ever, a title that belongs to French woman Jeanne Calment, who lived to be 122.
CEN Mbah Gotho, an Indonesian man who is believed to be 145-years-old
The super-senior citizen from Sragen, Central Java, was recently interviewed by regional reporters, and he said he has been through it all and would not mind passing on.
"What I want is to die," he said. "My grandchildren are all independent."
Suryanto, Mbah’s grandson, said his grandfather has been preparing for his death ever since he was 122, but it never seemed to come.
He said: "The gravestone there was made in 1992. That was 24 years ago."
CEN Official documentation revealing Mbah's impressive age
In addition, Suryanto said Mbah’s family has already prepared a gravesite for him - near his children’s graves.
Staff at the Indonesian records office say they have confirmed Mbah’s birthdate, which is specified on his Indonesian ID card as December 31, 1870.
Whether or not he will ever be listed as the world's oldest man however is open to question, as the paperwork has so far not been independently verified.
Mbah is waiting to see whether he will be listed as the oldest person ever
He says he is ready to die though
If so he will join to others without verifiable records who are purportedly older than Mbah - 171-year-old James Olofintuyi from Nigeria and 163-year-old Dhaqabo Ebba from Ethiopia.
These days, his grandchildren say Mbah mostly sits listening to the radio because his eyesight is too poor to watch television .
For the past three months, he has had to be spoon-fed and bathed as he has become increasingly frail.
When asked what his secret to longevity is, Mbah replied: "The recipe is just patience."

Sean has set a new world record with his cycle, run and swim
Extreme adventurer Sean Conway has told of his pain and relief after finally completing the first-ever Ultra Triathlon around the coast of Britain.
He completed an unbroken 85 days of travel - riding, running and swimming the 4,200 gruelling miles to successfully circumnavigate the mainland.
His trip - which kicked off in June - saw him cycle 3,200 miles from Lulworth Cove, Dorset, to Scarborough, run 820 miles to Brighton and swim 120 miles back to Lulworth Cove.
At one point during his jogging phase he clocked up seven continuous days of running a marathon or more.
Discovery Channel followed Sean on his epic journey for a special three-part series Sean Conway: On the Edge, to be broadcast exclusively from Tuesday 30th August, at 10pm.
Below, we look back on the 35-year-old Zimbabwean's epic challenge, which saw him cover the equivalent distance from London to New Delhi.
How it all began
His ride covered South West England, Wales and Scotland
Starting at the picturesque Lulworth Cove, Sean set out on what became the biggest challenge of his life: a 4,000-plus mile British Ultra Triathlon. From Lulworth Cove, Sean’s 3,200 mile cycle encompassed South West England, Wales and then Scotland.
The first leg of his adventure was not easy; a breakdown just two miles into this challenge made it clear Sean’s bamboo bike, Matilda, was not entirely suited to the impending journey, with mechanical failures, a heavy gear system and wonky frame all causing him problems throughout the route. Despite these reoccurring issues Sean set a bamboo bike land speed record on Pendine Sands Beach.
Behind schedule and facing an uphill challenge, Sean’s cycle culminated in a dangerous route to Applecross, Scotland. Tackling the highest road ascent in the UK, which rises to 2,053 feet, Sean’s burning desire and public support eventually spurred him on to Scarborough, where he would change discipline, some five days behind schedule.
Running on liquid roasts and dog biscuits
Sean gets ready to slurp his Sunday lunch, left, and a classic roast
At Scarborough, Sean left Matilda behind and donned his running shoes for an 820 run to Brighton. Over the course of the run Sean averaged more than 24 miles a day, including seven continuous days of running a marathon or more.
Travelling light and being fully self-sufficient caused Sean to call on all of his survival knowledge – purifying puddles to avoid carrying the five litres of water a day he needed to stay hydrated.
He clocked up seven continuous days of running a marathon or more
Getting enough nutrition was another of Sean’s constant battles, as he required a minimum of 5,000 calories a day to fuel his body. Ever the man for an ingenious solution Sean convinced a local pub to blend a Sunday roast into three pints’ worth of smoothie to absorb nutrients quicker, and ate high protein dog biscuits to keep himself going.
When disaster almost struck
A recurrence of a knee injury that has plagued him for years threatened to derail Sean’s run.
Taking matters into his own hands, Sean bathed in seas and rivers to chill his knee, before battling through the pain to reach Hull where he saw a knee specialist. A session of acupuncture later, and Sean was back on track before barely surviving a two mile swim in the tidal waters of Essex as he attempted to claw back lost time.
Fans followed Sean's progress live online via the Discovery UK website
There was no respite at Brighton as Sean jumped straight off Brighton Pier and started his 120 mile swim back to Lulworth Cove. Dodging ferriesand navigating Europe’s busiest waterway, Sean dragged all his equipment on his homemade raft – Rafty McRaftface. Tides and dangerous undercurrents meant Sean had limited swimming time each day and was required to push his already tired body to the limit one more time. Swimming into Lulworth Cove 85 days after setting off on his bike, Sean was greeted by a cheering crowd of family, friends and loyal supporters.
Couldn't have done it without the fans
Reflecting on his momentous achievement Sean said: “This was the hardest thing I have ever done, physically and mentally. I thought the cycle would be my strong point but I struggled out of the traps with Matilda, my bamboo bike, my knee, and a lot else besides.
“Britain is a beautiful country, and the people are amazing. I really couldn’t have done it without their support on social media and on my travels.”

A "lost" Beatles record has been played on Radio 4 for the first time this weekend - after being missing for more than 50 years.
The demo recording of It's For You, written for Cilla Black by John Lennon and Sir Paul McCartney, was discovered by Black's nephew Simon White. It had been given to his father by Black - his sister - when he was 18.
But while Mr White's father assumed it was just a copy of his sister's recording of the song, which shot to number seven in the charts, it was in fact the original demo sung by McCartney and delivered to Black at the London Palladium in 1964.
Black, who died just over a year ago at her home in Spain, wrote about the record in her autobiography, What's It All About?, and it's now set to be sold at aucition.

Kieron McCarron
Simon Bailey, owner of The Beatles Shop in Liverpool, was interviewed on Radio 4 today as the song was aired, and told listeners: "We were given 21 Cilla Black tapes and I took them home to play, and it was the last one I put on.
"And obviously I was just shocked and stunned to not hear Cilla and to hear Paul McCartney instead."
The record is part of the 25th Beatles Memorabilia Auction, organised by The Beatles Shop, at the Unity Theatre in Liverpool on Saturday, and is expected to fetch between £15,000 and £20,000.
After first listening to the record, shop manager and Beatles expert Stephen said: "I was shaking with excitement and speechless.
Redferns Cilla Black and Ringo Starr
"I realised that this was the long-lost Beatles demo disc from 1964 and I was probably one of the few people to have seen and heard it in over 50 years. What I had in my hand was probably the only copy in existence."
Simon White donated the record with a letter, explaining how his father - an avid collector - had looked after it for years after Black gave it to him.
He wrote: "When we found out that Sir Paul had not retained his own copy of the recording, as a courtesy and gesture of respect we agreed it would be only right that, of all people, he be allowed to make a copy of the recording for himself for the sole use of adding it to his personal archive.

"Other than the single copy of the recording that he now has, we know of no other."
Assistant store manager Anne-Marie Trace said: "It's so hard to find something of The Beatles that hasn't been released in some way or other. There has been interest from all over the world, and I expect it will end up going to a real fan."
Mr Bailey added: "I urge all Beatles fans to search their bottom drawers and attics where they could have put Beatles memorabilia years ago and forgotten all about them - you just never know what you may find or what it is worth."

Gene Wilder made one of his final public appearances at last year's US Open almost a year before his death.
The star, who has died at the age of 83, was seen hand-in-hand with his wife Karen Boyer as they arrived at Flushing Meadows in New York in September 2015 to watch Novak Djokovic take on Roger Federer in the final of the grand slam tennis tournament.
While looking frail, the Willy Wonka star still had a sparkle in his eye as he headed to the court with his fourth wife.

At the time his wife Karen played down concerns about his health, sparked by the appearance.
She told Radar Online: "(He’s) just fine. The cancer hasn’t returned and he’s as active as any man his age can be. He still gets out and about."
We now know the star was secretly battling Alzheimer's disease, which contributed to his death earlier this month.

A touching statement released on behalf of his family by nephew Jordan Walker-Pearlman, revealed his final moments: "He was eighty-three and passed holding out hands with the same tenderness and love he exhibited as long as I can remember. As our hands clutched and he performed one last breath the music speaker which was set to random, began to blare out one of his favourites: Ella Fitzgerald.
He continued: "There is a picture of he and Ella meeting at a London Bistro some years ago that are among each or cherished possessions. She was singing Somewhere Over The Rainbow as he was taken away."

The statement was signed off by one of Wilder's most iconic lines from his greatest role of Willy Wonka, who he brought to life in the 1971 classic.
"We are the music makers, and we are the dreamers of dreams," it read.
Wilder, who had battled non-Hodgkin’s lymphoma in 1989, was known as a comic genius whose timing made him a favourite of Hollywood directors.
As well as starring in Willie Wonka and the Chocolate Factory he was also well known for appearing in The Producers, Blazing Saddles, Young Frankenstein and Stir Crazy.
Mr Walker-Pearlman said the actor had chosen to keep his Alzheimer's secret so that children who knew him as Willy Wonka would not equate the whimsical character with an adult disease.

Making the announcement, he said: “It is with indescribable sadness and blues, but with spiritual gratitude for the life lived that I announce the passing of husband, parents and universal artist Gene Wilder at his home in Stamford, Connecticut.
“It is almost unbearable for us to contemplate our life without him.”
The news of his death led to an outpouring of grief from Hollywood with his friend Mel Brooks leading the tributes.
The director said: “Gene Wilder - one of the truly great talents of our time. He blessed every film we did with his magic & he blessed me with his friendship.”

Rob Lowe wrote, “Gene Wilder as one of my earliest heroes. Blazing Saddles, Willy Wonka, are CLINICS on comic acting. Sad to hear of his passing.”
Russell Crowe said: “I saw Blazing Saddles 7 times at the cinema with my school friends . George St. Cows outside. Gene Wilder, you were a genius. Rest in Peace.”
Oscar-nominated Juliette Lewis added: “Thank you for the beautiful words”.

Britain’s own funnyman Ricky Gervais simply used one of the star's most famous quotes from Willy Wonka writing on Twitter: “Good Day Sir!’ RIP Gene Wilder.”
The frizzy-haired actor was often cast as characters who showed signs of neurotic or hysteric behaviour.
“My quiet exterior used to be a mask for hysteria,” he told Time magazine in 1970.
“After seven years of analysis, it just became a habit.”
Twice nominated for an Oscar, his glittering career faltered after the death of his wife Gilda Radner, who he starred alongside in The Woman in Red, which left him devastated.
Friends say he never really got over her passing from ovarian cancer in 1989 and Wilder only worked infrequently after she died.
He married again in 1991 to Karen Boyer.

He returned briefly to television in the US with the sitcom “Something Wilder,” in 1994 and won an Emmy in 2003 for a guest role on “Will & Grace.”
Born Jerome Silberman in Milwaukee, Wisconsin in June 1933, he began acting at the age of eight when his mother was diagnosed with rheumatic fever.
The family’s doctor told the then schoolboy to "try and make her laugh” to take her mind off the pain she suffered.
After studying drama for two years when he turned 13 his mother Jeanne Silberman felt her son's potential was not being fully realised and sent him instead to Black-Foxe, a military institute in Hollywood.
Following his graduation after studying Communication and Theatre Arts at the University of Iowa, he was accepted at the Bristol Old Vic Theatre School in Bristol in 1955.

But his time in the UK was short lived after he was drafted into the army the following year.
He adopted Gene Wilder for his professional name at the age of 26, explaining, "I had always liked Gene because of Thomas Wolfe's character Eugene Gant in Look Homeward, Angel and Of Time and the River. And I was always a great admirer of Thornton Wilder.”
Following a short stint off-Broadway in 1961 Wilder won critical acclaim in Graham Greene’s comedy The Complaisant Lover.
It saw him awarded the Clarence Derwent Award as most promising newcomer but more importantly brought him to the attention of Mel Brooks.
When Wilder performed with the director’s future wife Anne Bancroft in Mother Courage it became the start of a long and famed friendship between the two men.
It led to the actor being cast in the 1967 film The Producers, in which he played the hysterical Leo Bloom, an accountant lured into a money making scam by a theatrical producer played by Zero Mostel.

Directed and written by Brooks, the film brought Wilder an Oscar nomination as best supporting actor spring-boarding him into more Hollywood roles.
In 1971 he stepped into the shoes of Willie Wonka.
Based on the children’s book by Roald Dahl, Willie Wonka and the Chocolate Factory was not an immediate hit but became a children’s favourite over the years.
Now established in Hollywood Wilder achieved further stardom in two other Brooks comedies, both in 1974.
Rex Gene Wilder with his first wife Gilda Radner in Haunted Honeymoon in 1986
Western spoof “Blazing Saddles” and a wacko adaptation of Mary Shelley’s famous book entitled “Young Frankenstein,” in which Wilder portrayed the mad scientist with his signature mixture of hysteria and sweetness both enjoyed box office success.
The 1980’s movie Stir Crazy starring Richard Pryor became the then biggest grossing movie earning more than $100 million.
Wilder is survived by a daughter, Katharine whom he adopted in 1967 when he married her mother Mary Joan Schute.

"He simply couldn't bear the idea of one less smile in the world": The family statement in full
It is with indescribable sadness and blues, but with spiritual gratitude for the life lived that I announce the passing of husband, parent and universal artist Gene Wilder, at his home in Stamford, Connecticut.
It is almost unbearable for us to contemplate our life without him.
The cause was complications from Alzheimer's Disease with which he co-existed for the last three years. The choice to keep this private was his choice, in talking with us and making a decision as a family.
We understand for all the emotional and physical challenges this situation presented we have been among the lucky ones - the illness-pirate, unlike in so many cases, never stole his ability to recognize those that were closest to him, nor took command of his central-gentle-life affirming core personality. It took enough but not that.
The decision to wait until this time to disclose his condition wasn't vanity, but more so that the countless young children would smile or call out to him 'there's Willy Wonka,' would not have to be then exposed to an adult referencing illness or trouble and causing delight to travel to worry, disappointment or confusion.
Getty Gene Wilder signs a copy of his new book "My French Whore" at Barnes & Noble in 2007
He simply couldn't bear the idea of one less smile in the world.
He continued to enjoy art, music, and kissing his leading lady of the last twenty-five years, Karen.
He danced down a church aisle at a wedding as parent of the groom and ring bearer, held countless afternoon movie western marathons and delighted in the company of beloved ones.
He is survived by Karen[wife], Jordan [nephew] and the Webbs (Kevin, Gretchen, Tucker, Spencer)[wife's family], along with Jordan's wife Elizabeth. Gene's sister Corinne, predeceased him in January of this year.
He was eighty three and passed holding our hands with the same tenderness and love he exhibited as long as I can remember.
As our hands clutched and he performed one last breath, the music speaker, which was set to random, began to blare out one of his favorites: Ella Fitzgerald.
There is a picture of he and Ella meeting at a London Bistro some years ago that are among each oUr cherished possessions. She was singing 'Somewhere Over the Rainbow,' as he was taken away'
'We are the music makers, and we are the dreamers of dreams.'
Sincerely,
'Gene's Kid'
Jordan Walker-Pearlman

If Amazon has its way, the weekly trip to the supermarket to pick up staples like washing up liquid, toilet roll and laundry detergent will soon be a thing of the past.
That's because the monolithic online retailer is bringing its "Dash buttons", which have been a great success in the United States, over to Blighty.
Dash buttons are small buttons connected to WiFi that sit in your house and order you a specific product from Amazon when pressed.
So, for example, you might have one for laundry detergent next to your washing machine and press it when you've run out.
Amazon
The button sends the order directly to Amazon, which deducts the price from your account and delivers it straight to your door.
"Shopping for these items is just work. It's not going shopping at the weekend for a new shirt. It's not retail therapy," Daniel Rausch, director of Amazon Dash, told Mirror Online.
Each Dash button is linked to one brand. When the gadget was first developed there were 20 different brands to choose from - now Amazon has 150 signed up.
A quick caveat here: You'll have to be signed up to Amazon's Prime service in order to use the Dash button. The subscription costs £79 a year and guarantees same-day delivery.
What's more, Amazon's recently launched Prime Now service will guarantee delivery to Prime members in an hour - although it's only available in selected post codes.
The Dash button will only process the first press - so repeated jabs won't overload you with boxes of kitchen roll or dozens of pints of milk. And you're notified of each one by a pop-up on your phone.
Dash replenishment services
Alongside the Dash buttons, Amazon is also launching what it calls the Dash replenishment services.
This is a deal struck with manufacturers to include the same ordering technology from the Dash button inside their appliances.
In other words, your internet-connected vacuum cleaner could automatically order a new bag from Amazon when its current one is full up.
Amazon Brita water filters can automatically be ordered through Amazon's Dash service
"We're making this really simple for manufacturers - all they have to do is put in 10 additional lines of code and they don't have to build the infrastructure," said Rausch.
Four manufacturers are signed up and already producing products with Dash built in: Grundig, Bosche, Whirlpool and Samsung. The latter is building a printer that will automatically order new printer ink once you've run out.
Amazon Brother Printer
Just like with the Dash button, any order can be cancelled at any point if you decide you don't actually want that refill after all.
The Dash buttons will cost £4.99 each, but that amount is refunded to you on the first order you place using them.
It remains to be seen whether the product will be a hit in the UK, but for time-pressured shoppers who don't want to trek down to Tesco or Sainsbury's every Saturday, this could be the answer.

Drake might have been given the cheek after declaring his love to Rihanna at the MTV Video Music Awards on Sunday - but that didn't stop the pair working up a sweat at her after party.
The rapper presented his close friend with the prestigious Vanguard prize, and in a sweet moment on stage, professed his love to her in front of the crowd.
And he had plenty more love to show her after joining her at her VMA after party at Up&Down in New York on Sunday.
The Hotline Bling rapper barely left her side as they danced up a storm and worked up quite a sweat in celebration of her award.

Next James Bond? Victoria star Tom Hughes tipped to replace Daniel Craig after catching eye in BBC role
| null | null |
www.mirror.co.uk

Tom Hughes has been tipped as the next James Bond after impressing the films’ producer.
The actor is said to have caught the eye of Barbara Broccoli when he played an MI5 operative in the BBC Cold War thriller The Game.
A source said: “Barbara has told those around her how impressed she was with Tom in The Game.
“She thinks he is very talented and has been looking at all his shows to see if he is up for the role.”
The 30-year-old is a Rada graduate and a serious “method actor” who is widely hailed as the acting world’s next big thing.
For his most recent role as Prince Albert in Victoria he learned to play a Beethoven piano sonata.
He’s also starred in Casualty and Silk and Marple as well as modelling for Burberry alongside Emma Watson and playing the guitar in indie band Quaintways.

Des Willie/BBC Tom Hughes as Joe Lambe in The Game
Last year, Tom told how he would love to takeover from Daniel Craig , 48, when he steps down as Bond.
He said: “Would I like to be James Bond? There’s not many people who wouldn’t want to be James Bond.
“If someone sits me down and offers me James Bond one day, it’d be an incredible day. I would strongly consider that. No one’s asked me to play it yet, but I’d love them to ask.”
If Bond producer Broccoli approaches Tom, he would have to carefully consider the role as Victoria could run into several series.
Getty Tom Hughes and Jenna Coleman arrive for the premiere screening of ITV's Victoria at The Orangery on August 11, 2016 in London
Other actors rumoured to become the next Bond include Aidan Turner , Tom Hiddleston and Idris Elba .
But the sources adds: “007 creators haven’t been able to find their Bond so they have started searching for new, fresh faces.”
Ladbrokes said that Jamie Bell was also in the running to become the next Bond.
The Billy Elliot star had been chalked up as a 33/1 outsider but after a run of money in 48 hours his odds quickly tumbled, and Bell is now rated as an 8/1 chance while Aidan Turner remains the favourite.

Vladimir Putin, 48, was arrested in Florida, US
A man called Vladimir Putin has been arrested in a US supermarket after allegedly screaming at employees and refusing the leave the store.
The 48-year-old suspect, who shares the same name as the President of Russia (and is definitely not him), was detained at a Publix supermarket in Florida.
He is now facing charges of trespassing and resisting an officer, public records show.
Police were called to the store in downtown West Palm Beach on Sunday, August 21, after receiving a report of a man screaming at staff members.

Putin refused to leave the premises after being approached by managers, CBS 12 reports.
He also resisted arrest after police arrived at the scene, it is alleged.
When asked for his name, Putin refused to give it to officers, according to a police report.
However, he did tell cops that he had missed his ride, Fox News reports.
The suspect appeared in court on Monday morning.

As news of his name emerged, people took to social media to express their amusement.
A young man called Jack Tinker posted an image of Palm Beach County Sheriff's records on Facebook, writing: "Vladimir Putin was arrested in a Palm Beach Publix.
"Should have claimed diplomatic immunity."
And one Twitter user wrote: "Now the Russian Embassy in US will have to confirm that Vladimir Putin was not arrested in Florida."

The end of the transfer window is approaching, with less than two days left for clubs to bring in fresh faces. Managers across the land will be frantically trying to get deals over the line as they put the finishing touches to their squads for the new season. Arsene Wenger looks set to finally bring in reinforcements - but is Lucas Perez a panic buy? And have they overpaid for Shkodran Mustafi? Chelsea have been frustrated by their inability to strengthen, so we'll keep an eye on the combustible Antonio Conte in his desperate search for new players. It's all live, right here...
Key Events So Far
07:42 Perez arrives at Heathrow ahead of Arsenal switch Lucas Perez touched down in London last night ahead of the announcement of his transfer from Deportivo La Coruna to Arsenal. The 27-year-old had a black rucksack over his shoulders as he made his way through Heathrow Airport in a white t-shirt and black jeans. Perez, who has agreed a long-term contract at the Emirates, will cost the Gunners £17million. The Spanish striker has already passed his medical and should officially be announced as an Arsenal player on Tuesday. Getty
06:52 Wolfsbury eye Son Wolfsburg have made a £24million offer for Spurs forward Son Heung Min. As revealed by Mirror Football, the German club are keen to take the South Korean star back to the Bundesliga. Son signed a five-year deal to move to White Hart Lane from Bayer Leverkusen only last summer. But it is understood Spurs are willing to listen to offers for him as boss Mauricio Pochettino reshapes his attack. Leicester and Everton are also interested. Spurs are seeking a profit on their £22million outlay 12 months ago with Pochettino interested in an audacious move for Real Madrid star Isco. Getty
06:32 Joe Hart to fly to Italy Joe Hart is quitting Manchester City to join Torino on loan. Hart has been given permission to leave the England camp and jet out to Italy to complete his season-long loan switch after being dumped by City boss Pep Guardiola. The England No 1 has been given permission by Sam Allardyce to leave the Three Lions squad at St George’s Park and undergo a medical in Turin. Hart, 29, has opted for Torino ahead of Sunderland because he feels playing this season in Serie A can resurrect his club career. He had no interest in being part of a relegation battle at Sunderland, even though he respects boss David Moyes. Chris Brunskill

Police SWAT team surround Chris Brown's LA mansion as a 'gun, weapons and drugs are recovered from bag'
| null | null |
www.mirror.co.uk

A police SWAT team has descended on Chris Brown's Tarzana mansion, following allegations that a woman was threatened at the property with a gun.
A team of officers are currently outside the sprawling home, where they have been seen putting up police tape as they attempt to investigate the alleged incident. A police vehicle can be seen in the driveway of the house, while two large buses are parked in the street outside.
Police have reportedly been outside the property since 3am when a woman called 911 and claimed the singer "pulled a gun" on her.
The report claims that police are waiting for a search warrant to be granted and are expecting the singer to "surrender" himself.

Several people have been seen leaving the property and coming out to the gate, where they've spoken to officers, but so far no sign of Brown.
According to TMZ authorities have retrieved some items from a duffel bag that was allegedly thrown from a window of the property including a gun, other weapons and drugs.

Earlier today it was reported by TMZ that the singer was being investigated on an allegation of criminal assault, after a woman claimed he threatened her with a gun while at an LA residence, prompting her to call 911.
Soon after images of police outside Brown's house were posted to social media, with the singer then insisting he had done nothing wrong in an expletive laden Instagram video.

"So I'm asleep half the damn night," he begins, "I just wake up, all these mother f****** helicopters is around, police out there at the gate."
"Come on my n****, what else do you f****** want from me bro, I stay outta the way, take care of my daughter, do work. I don't need to f*** ugly b******, trifling b******, whatever the f*** it is."
Brown, who claims to be inside his property continues: "I'm not on that bro, I'm way too tired to be dealing with this b*******. Every three months you come up with something bro? What is it, what's going to be next?" he claimed.
He insists he's done nothing wrong
Chris Brown is allegedly under investigation
Attacking the police for not responding to his calls as swiftly, he said: "At the same time when I call the police for stalker people who are endangering my life, they don't come until the next day. Someone makes a f***** allegation about me, oh yeah and the whole f****** SWAT team.
Brown added: "My n***** I'm innocent, I'm tired of hearing this s***"
In a follow up video he also denied reports he was "barricaded" inside his house and appeared to laugh at the suggestion, before saying "f*** the police".
In a third video he took a minuet to plug his new single Grass Ain't Greener in a third.
WENN Ray J was allegedly in the building
Mirror Celeb has contacted Brown's rep for comment.
Singer Ray J was also allegedly in the building when the incident happened and was allowed to leave by police, however he had to leave his car at the property and reportedly went home in an uber.
Brown has never been far from controversy during his career.
In May this year the star denied claims he "stomped on a fan's head" during a recent nightclub appearance at the Cannes Film Festival.

After a video of the alleged incident - which took place at Gotha nightclub on May 18 - was posted online by TMZ the FAME singer took to Instagram to insist it didn't happen.
"F*** you," he began in the video, before emphatically stating: "no fans were hurt by Chris Brown, no fans were beat up by Chris Brown."

"Grabbed his hands around my throat and tried to push me out the spot when we were walking, my security was already outside of the spot."

Arsenal signing Shkodran Mustafi returns to the country that made him a man
| null | null |
www.mirror.co.uk
|
Then and now: Mustafi has sealed his return to England
Shkodran Mustafi , by his own admission, arrived in England a child and left it as a man.
He also left it for free, deemed unable to make the cut with Everton by David Moyes and allowed to sign for Sampdoria on a Bosman.
Mustafi today returns to England a £35million man , one whose sole Toffees appearance - replacing Tony Hibbert for 15 minutes in a defeat to BATE Borisov - has been reduced to a quirk of history and it is fair to say that, since leaving these shores, Mustafi has never looked back.
First at Sampdoria and then Valencia, the 24-year-old has proven himself in two of Europe's top leagues. Now he returns ready to prove himself in the land where he grew up.

"Football in England is very physical, about stature," says Mustafi. "It's very quick and a lot less tactical.
"It was an important time for me, physically and as a person, as I went there as a boy and matured personally and professionally there."
“As a 17-year-old it was difficult to accept that I wasn’t featuring,” he said.
“I felt like I had to play more because I was still developing."

Arriving as a teenager, Mustafi found himself caught in the purgatory between reserve and first-team football, and it nearly drove him to give up the game he'd grown up playing on the street corners of Bad Hersfeld, an old manufacturing town in the heart of Germany.
"At the end of my time in England, I thought 'wow, I'm only 20, and I'm already sick of football'" he said in an interview with Spox earlier this year.
But he gave it another go. And Sampdoria reaped the benefits as Mustafi discovered Serie A to be a very different place to the reserve leagues of north-west England.

"Italy was the opposite," he told Plaza Deportiva last year . "A lot less physical and centred more around tactics."
While Moyes has never spoken much of the defender's departure, he is understood to have dismissed Mustafi because of his none-too-imposing physique. At a smidgen over six feet tall he is not the sort of man mountain that the Scot has favoured throughout his career and, as Mustafi admits, Italian football was less physical and allowed him to show off his other attributes.
It won him a place in the Germany squad, a World Cup win and a move to La Liga where his growth continued.

"In Spain the play is shorter," he would reflect during his first campaign at the Mestalla. "It is more tactical and you have to know how to read the play."
In a league where that ability to anticipate and prevent is more important than being able to react and recover, Mustafi has excelled.
Indeed, since arriving in Spain he leads La Liga in interceptions.

The 24-year-old centre-back describes himself as a player with "a very modern style of play", referring to his proactive approach to defending.
'Proactive' can, sometimes, spill over into fouling and as much as Mustafi likes to tackle an opponent with vigour he is not shy about leaving them on the floor. Occasionally this results in a dismissal, as in the 7-0 defeat to Barcelona last season which he ended up begging fans to forgive him for, but for the moment he is on the right side of the line between committed and rash.

Those impressive interception stats obviously underline Mustafi's footballing IQ, something Arsene Wenger loves in a player, but he is also athletic - making up for his height to be effective in aerial battles - and composed when in possession of the ball.
That is why, had Arsenal bought him for the price they were quoted in July , Mustafi would legitimately have been one of the summer's great bargains.
Instead, £35million seems to be around market rate for a defender of his age and caliber in a summer where fees have risen quicker than the temperatures.
Arsenal FC Arsenal have sealed a deal for Mustafi
Born into the Bundesliga, passing through Serie A and La Liga, Mustafi returns to England today as a star.
"I could write a book of 600 pages with everything that's happened to me," he said last year.
From purgatory to the Premier League and still just 24, his intriguing story still has many chapters left to fill.

RuPaul's All Stars steal the VMAs with the best of Britney, Madonna and Kim Kardashian's looks
The queens of RuPaul's Drag Race All Stars stole the show at this year's MTV Video Music Awards.
Dressing head to toe in outfits made famous by the awards show over the years, nine of this years' cast - who are currently competing on Logo TV's competition - slayed the opposition and made the white carpet work for them.
Alaska 5000 led the queens in arguably the most famous homage of Britney Spears' I'm a Slave 4 U snake performance outfit, with Alyssa Edwards copied Katy Perry's 2014 copy of Britney Spears' 2001 denim gown and thick and juicy Roxxxy Andrews channelled her inner Kim Kardashian by recreating her 2015 VMAs look.

Tatianna, who stole the show on the first episode of the new series of All Stars, dressed up as Aaliyah from 2000 in her striking animal print dress, while Detox also dressed as Madonna , only this time from 1990, and Coco Montrese paid homage to Lil Kim's 1999 VMAs outfit.
The queens all cosied up to Celebrity Big Brother star Frankie Grande on the white carpet.
Adore Delano was missing from the line-up owing to tour commitments, but no doubt her outfit would have been some serious punk rock realness.

The girls no doubt needed a night out after it was revealed that they would be eliminating each other on the new season of the show.
Instead of lipsyncing for their lives, the queens will instead have to lipsync for their legacies and the winners will make the decision of who is sent home.
Already Coco Montrese has been sent packing, but a last second twist meant that she will return to wreak her revenge on Roxxxy Andrews, who was the queen to send her home.

Murray and Rosol will face each other in the US Open first round in the pair's first meeting since they argued during a match in Munich last year

Andy Murray insists his relationship with Lukas Rosol is fine despite telling Czech: "Everyone hates you"

Britain's Andy Murray insists there is no bad blood between him and Lukas Rosol as the duo prepare to reunite in the US Open first round.
Murray beat Rosol during a bad-tempered encounter at the Munich Open last year when the Scot shouted to his opponent: "No one likes you on the tour, everyone hates you."
The outburst came after Rosol appeared to barge into Murray at a change of ends and Murray was unrepentant afterwards, explaining: "If you get pushed around then you stick up for yourself."
The draw on Friday at Flushing Meadows has now pitted the pair together again but Murray was adamant they have patched up their differences.
"Yeah I mean, I spoke to him after the match last year, it was fine," Murray said.

PA Big-serving Czech Lukas Rosol stands in Murray's way in the first round
"Afterwards I just - obviously a few things happened when we were on the court - but we spoke after the match and that was it.
"I have actually got along fine with him apart from that day and he's a tough, tough opponent obviously.
"He's a big, strong guy, he goes for his shots and he takes a lot of risks. It's a tough opening round, for sure."
Murray arrives in New York as the man in form after winning his third grand slam title at Wimbledon and following that up by clinching a second singles gold medal at the Olympics.
Getty Murray won a second Olympic singles gold medal in Rio
The snag of his success, however, is fatigue. The Scot has played 57 matches already this year and reached the final of the last seven consecutive tournaments he has played.
Murray said after falling at the last hurdle in Cincinnati on Sunday that he had been carrying a shoulder injury during the week, and while it is understood that has now eased, he says tiredness has been an issue.
"It was hard, going from Rio to Cincinnati," Murray said.
"I didn't feel great when I was there. Luckily I won a few quick matches and that helped.
The world number two reached the final of the Cincinnati Masters but lost to Marin Cilic
"But I was tired in Cincinnati and, obviously I was disappointed to lose in the final, but I was pumped to reach the final. I didn't expect that the way I arrived from Rio and how I was feeling after that.
"That's why this week, it was very important to rest, take time to let your body recover and is just important to do the training you do away from the court.
"That's something that I have learned as I got older; whereas before when I was younger it was different. I trained sometimes too much maybe and didn't listen to my body enough."

David Beckham has given fans a very intimate look at his famous tattoo collection.
The 41-year-old star's body is adorned with intricate designs and revealing they tell the story of his life, David has stripped off to reveal what a few of them meaning.
Zooming in on the hunk's toned and tanned body, we're first shown an eagle, his favourite animal, a ship, which is the same as his father's own inkings before zooming in on the '99' on his little finger.

"1999 was such a great year for me," Becks revealed, referring to 1999 when he not only won the triple with Manchester United, but also married wife Victoria and welcomed son Brooklyn.
David, who has over 40 inkings, then moved onto the ones dedicated to his children, including Buster - Brooklyn's nickname on his neck - and a sketch done by his youngster Harper on the palm of his hand.

It ends with a smouldering David getting dressed into a tuxedo, while he explains: "The story of my life is written on my skin. Don't expect to read it on my face."
The video was all in aid of David's new Biotherm Homme Force Supreme campaign and as ever even Becks takes his clothes off, is sure to be a massive hit.

Speaking about his tattoos, David has previously said: "Mine are all about the people in my life, my wife and sons, who I want with me always.
"When you see me, you see the tattoos. You see an expression of how I feel about Victoria and the boys. They're part of me."
Insisting he wouldn't change any of the designs, he added: "I don't regret any of them. They all have a meaning. I think that's what's important about tattoos, if they have a meaning you'll never regret them."

Actor Daniel Craig looks like he may have used some golden dye after he appeared with a new short bleach blond haircut on the set of his new film.
The James Bond actor, 48, is working in Atlanta, Georgia on Logan Lucky a movie in which Two brothers attempt to pull off a heist during a NASCAR race.
But his cropped cut and striped trousers are a million miles away from his style playing suave 007 on the big screen.

Craig, who seems set to have filmed his final Bond movie, has also signed up for a US TV series called Purity.
Based on Jonathan Frantzen’s novel of the same name, it is billed as a a “morally complex story of youthful idealism, extreme loyalty and cold-blooded murder.”
It will begin production in 2017 and will air in two instalments over the course of two years, according to US industry website Deadline.
As James Bond
Will he be back?
Craig will play the male lead and also executive produce the series.
Showtime president David Nevins said: “The brilliant Daniel Craig is perfectly cast as the charismatic, mysterious Andreas Wolf.”
Craig is also finalising a deal to co-star in Steven Soderbergh’s new heist film Logan Lucky, which starts production in the autumn.

Poldark’s Aidan Turner and The Night Manager’s Tom Hiddleston are the bookies favourites to replace him.

Poignant final tribute to Terry Wogan from his TOGs as fans gather to remember him
| null | null |
www.mirror.co.uk

Ready for revelry, they descended on Reading for two days of music, dancing and some serious hero worshipping.
Not the bright young things attending this weekend’s Reading Festival but Terry’s Old Geezers and Gals who’d come to the Berkshire town to show how you really throw a party.
Sir Terry Wogan’s band of hardcore fans - known as TOGS - have been staging their annual conference for the past 17 years, often with their idol popping in as guest of honour.
But while they always made a tongue-in-cheek pilgrimage to meet their glorious leader, his death seven months ago transformed this year’s event into a genuine tribute.
Daily Mirror Martin Craven with Terry Wogan
Organisers initially considered cancelling the 2016 get-together as a mark of respect for the legendary broadcaster, who died suddenly from cancer aged 77 in January.
But his devoted disciples were determined to bid him a proper farewell.
“This is our chance to say goodbye to Terry because we never got the chance to,” says proud TOG and event organiser Norman Macintosh.

“When he died it was such a body blow. It’s been an emotional seven months since he passed away and we regularly break into tears because it’s still so raw.
“We still expect him to have been hiding all this time then just pop out at any moment.”
Norman’s eyes fill with tears as he talks about Sir Terry.

He and his wife Lesley were personal friends and spent years working with him on various fundraising events, including Children in Need.
Even they had no idea he was ill and only found out he’d died at the same time as the rest of the nation on January 31.
Nor did they attend the funeral, which was for close family and friends only.
Daily Mirror Lesley Macintosh and her husband Norman with Terry Wogan
But Norman doesn’t seem to care. They have their memories of Sir Terry and the hilarious stories he used to tell them, including the time he got a royal scolding when he retired from Radio 2’s daily breakfast show in 2009.
“He told us he used to go for dinner with The Queen at Buckingham Palace,” he says, “and not for formal dinners, it was an informal invite because Her Majesty used to listen to his programme.
“She told him off for retiring. Terry said she told him: ‘How can you retire? I’m not retiring!’ because she was older than he was.
Daily Mirror Lesley Macintosh her husband Norman and Christine Yew at this year's final event
"The Queen was a TOG too but I don’t think she an alternative name though that would have been good. Something like ‘Lizzie Dripping.’”
The alternative name is all part of the whole TOG sub-culture. Tudor Macintosh is the chosen pseudonym of Norman, who lives in Gosport with Lesley.
She rechristened herself Hellen Bach (as in ‘To Hell and Back’.)
Daily Mirror TOGs convention at Reading University
Norman explains that Terry’s Old Geezers were the majority of the eight million listeners of his Radio 2 show who shared the same scattiness, love of daft jokes and slight bewilderment about the modern world.
Their parallel universe is wonderfully silly.
Upon arrival at the convention they’re handed a TOG bag containing a pack of Jammie Dodger biscuits (for no apparent reason) a pen which reads: “TOGs Convention 2016: The Finale” and a t-shirt with the tagline for this year’s bash: the acronym JAPAN, which stands for Just Another Party Again Norman. (TOGS love their acronyms as much as their double names.)

Along with the discos, fancy dress competitions and drinking, there was also a lunch held on Saturday attended by Sir Terry’s colleagues on his breakfast show.
Plus there was a special video tribute from singer and TV presenter Aled Jones, who was the most interviewed person on BBC’s Wogan chat show during its 10-year run from 1982.
In between the partying Lesley (aka Hellen), 61, can’t help but get little teary eyed realising that Sir Terry won’t be popping his head around the door at any moment.
Daily Mirror It was a poignant final farewell to Terry Wogan
“Terry wouldn’t have wanted us to be sad, especially at the convention,” she says, “but it’s so hard not to be. We loved him so much.”
Like husband Norman, she was very close to the DJ and chat show host.
They shared the highs of raising millions for charity, but also the low moments.
Daily Mirror Wogan Tote bags at the convention
She said Sir Terry confessed how wounded he was when it was revealed that he was the only celebrity “paid” to appear on Children in Need.
“Norman and I had coffee with him on the day that came out and he was so hurt,” says Lesley.
“Because he worked so hard and behind the scenes too, he did a lot of stuff people don’t even know about.
Daily Mirror Wogan Tote bags
“But he said: ‘I won’t apologise and I won’t explain...but you can’ And we did explain. The story just wasn’t true.
"He didn’t get paid specifically for Children in Need, doing Children in Need just got amalgamated into his contract of employment with the BBC for which he got paid. That’s a completely different thing.”
Lesley owes a special debt of gratitude to Sir Terry, after all it was through the fundraising with him that she met Norman.
Getty Sir Terry Wogan did a lot of work for Children in Need
And when they tied the knot, Sir Terry wrote the groom’s wedding speech.
But she’s not the only one who was helped by the TOG’s idol. Providing all the music at the conventions is Christine Tew, a glamorous granny from Wiltshire who’s alter ego is DJ Dizzy Twilight.
The former nurse and registrar of births, deaths and marriages, retired five years ago.
PA Sir Terry Wogan gave advice and help to many of his TOGs
Inspired by seeing her sons DJ, she started to dip her toe in the water too.
And Sir Terry was the first to encourage her.
She recalls: “He was so kind because my first gig was at a TOGs convention and Terry said to me: ‘Now my dear, I gather you’re the DJ? Let me give you a tip: just be yourself and they’ll be kind to you’.

“I was very nervous but he couldn’t have been kinder. He was this professional broadcaster telling little me: ‘Don’t worry you’ll be ok.’”
At the age of 65, DJ Dizzy has now taken a course with the Ministry of Sound and only last year she was ‘researching’ at clubs including Amnesia in Ibiza.
She’s also hired to gig at events up and down the country showing off her extensive collection of electronica and drum n’ bass.
Michael Ball with Terry Wogan
“Terry really inspired me - he was such a life force,” she says, “I met him many times at conventions over the years and he always exceeded your expectations.
"He was such a gentle, fun, kind person. The last time I saw him he said to me: ‘I’ll see you at the next convention’ and, of course, he never made it. It’s just incredibly sad.”
Sir Terry’s passing also made grown men weep when news of his death went around the world.

“I must have been one of the last TOGs to find out because I was working in Hawaii at the time,” says software expert Martin Craven, 62, (aka Ivor E Tower) from York.
“But when I did find out I don’t mind admitting I cried for an entire day.
“He wasn’t just a celebrity he was a genuinely lovely person and incredibly humble too.

"One of the first times I met him was when I was in the audience for Auntie’s Bloomers at BBC Television Centre.
"I asked him to sign one of his books and said: ‘Are you sure you want me to do that because it will reduce its value.’ And that was typical of his modesty and charm.”
But the TOGs convention wasn’t just sad because they’d lost Sir Terry, but because this will be their last convention.
Aled Jones and Sir Terry Wogan
“I’m sure the TOGs will continue in some form or other and I’m sure we’ll still meet up in other ways,” says Norman.
“But Terry was always the reason we did it and, with him gone, sadly so has our inspiration.
“But at least this last get-together has allowed us to toast the passing of a great man and a gentleman.”

Police suspect WITCHCRAFT after diver finds human skeleton and voodoo doll at beauty spot

The skeleton was found with a number of strange objects
Police on the Costa Blanca are probing a witchcraft link after a shocked diver found a skeleton wrapped in a shroud with "a bucketful of strange objects".
The man originally thought the items bundled together in a sheet were rubbish.
But he was stunned when the decomposed corpse was revealed, together with voodoo items such as a doll, wooden stick and yellow liquid in a small bottle.
The gruesome discovery was made in an isolated beauty spot in Calp, a coastal town in the province of Alicante.
Divers in Calp, found a human skeleton with objects used in rituals of witchcraft
Police are now trying to find out the identity of the dead person who "had been buried and left to rot" before it fell into the sea.
The instructor with a local diving centre brought the knotted sheet back to shore after an expedition in the marina area of Roca Plana del Penyal d'Ifac.
The human skeleton inside was accompanied by other witchcraft items including branches with people's names etched on them and a cloved wooden stick.

"It was all very disturbing and suggests some sort of ritual of witchcraft or a strange funeral rite had been carried out."
There were also feathers, laurel and sealed container with a "strange" yellow liquid.
The site of the discovery, the Roca Plana, is accessible on foot from a popular promenade.
Police believe whoever carried out the ritual did so late at night when the area was probably deserted.
The skeletal remains and ritual objects have been taken away for anaylsis.

Do you suffer from tummy trouble? Read our guide to determine what could be the matter
We all suffer from a dodgy tummy every now and again or problems on the loo. But nearly a third of Brits believe they actually have a serious gut issue.
One in four experiences things such as constipation or diarrhoea at least once a month, a survey of 2,000 adults revealed.
The poll, released ahead of Gut Week 2016, also found other regular complaints include indigestion (28%), heartburn (26%) and abdominal pain (24%).
Dr Anton Emmanuel, consultant gastroenterologist at University College Hospital in London says: “With so many in Britain experiencing symptoms of poor gut health, it’s important to raise awareness of digestive health issues and chronic conditions and encourage sufferers to seek medical advice in order to treat any conditions before they get worse.”
So check out our guide and see if your tummy is trying to tell you something.
Irritable Bowel Syndrome (IBS)
Getty Could your symptoms be irritable bowel syndrome
What is it? IBS is a gastrointestinal condition affecting as many as one in five Brits. It’s a functional disorder so an X-ray of the gut would show no obvious problem. It’s thought the gut is simply more sensitive but experts don’t know why.
Symptoms: Abdominal pain/discomfort with frequent diarrhoea or constipation, bloating and wind.
What causes it? IBS could be triggered by an infection such as gastroenteritis or overuse of antibiotics or certain drugs, typically anti-inflammatories. There’s also evidence that those affected have increased sensitivity to external stimuli, such as stress.
Deal with it: There is no cure but symptoms can be managed and calmed with lifestyle measures, such as altering diets and reducing stress. Anti-spasmodic medication may also be prescribed.
Visit The IBS Network (theibsnetwork.org).
Irritable Bowel Disease (IBD)
What is it? IBD is a bracket-term for two chronic inflammatory intestinal diseases – ulcerative colitis and Crohn’s disease.
Symptoms: A change in bowel habits (urgent and or bloody diarrhoea), abdominal pain, weight loss, and extreme tiredness.
What causes it? Ulcerative colitis is caused when the inner lining of the intestine becomes inflamed and, as a result, develops ulcers while Crohn’s disease affects not only the lining of the intestine but can also spread to the entire bowel wall. Genetics and smoking can also be contributing factors.
Deal with it: Once IBD has been diagnosed, through stool sampling, barium X-rays, CT scans and a colonoscopy, it is commonly treated with anti-inflammatory medications such as immunosuppressants and corticosteroids, which inhibit harmful immune system activities.
In some cases, surgery may be required to remove the inflamed section of the intestine.
Gastroenteritis
What is it? Gastroenteritis – or gastric flu , stomach flu and food poisoning – is inflammation of the stomach and intestines.
Symptoms: Stomach cramps with repeated diarrhoea, nausea and vomiting, sometimes accompanied by headaches and a high temperature.
What causes it? A virus, such as the norovirus, or food that has not been cooked properly, stored at the right temperature, cross contaminated or eaten past its use-by date.
Deal with it: In the majority of cases, gastroenteritis will work its way out of your body without the need for medical treatment so sufferers are advised to drink fluids, eat plain food, such as toast, and rest. Over-the-counter oral-rehydration solutions and anti-nausea medication can be helpful.
See your doctor if your symptoms are severe or last longer than a few days.
Gallstones
Contact lenses could release DRUGS to treat glaucoma and stop millions from losing their sight
Getty Could it be gallstones
What is it? Stones caused when the digestive juice bile, stored in the gall bladder, contains too much cholesterol and solidifies.
Symptoms: Sporadic episodes of severe pain on the right side under the ribs that may radiate to the centre of the back or shoulder blades – possibly with vomiting, raised temperature, yellowing skin and/or whites of the eyes, shivering and itchy skin.
What causes it? It’s thought that gallstones develop because of an imbalance in the chemical composition of bile inside the gallbladder. A high-cholesterol diet may be a factor.
Deal with it: Some gallstones don’t need treatment whereas others may need to be removed surgically or via an endoscope.
Coeliac Disease
What is it? Coeliac disease is an autoimmune disease, not an allergy or food intolerance, caused by a reaction to gluten – a protein found in wheat, rye and barley.
Symptoms: Stomach pain, wind, constipation and bloating
What causes it? The immune system
sees gluten as a threat to the body and attacks it, causing damage to the small intestine.
Deal with it: There is no cure. Blood tests and a biopsy will confirm diagnosis and then a strict gluten-free diet is needed.
Gastro-oesophageal reflux disease (GORD)
Getty Make sure you eat the right foods
What is it? This is where stomach acid leaks out of the stomach and into the oesophagus – the food pipe that runs from the mouth to the stomach.
Symptoms: Heartburn, dysphagia (difficulty swallowing) and an unpleasant sour taste in the mouth.
What causes it? The most common cause is a weakened lower oesophageal sphincter (LOS), which allows stomach acid back into the oesophagus. Risk factors for this include obesity, a high-fat diet, being pregnant or an excessive consumption of alcohol, tobacco, chocolate or coffee.
Deal with it: Changing your diet and medications, such as antacids, PPIs (proton pump inhibitors) and H2-receptor antagonists (H2RAs) can really help. In some cases, surgery may be required.
Constipation
What is it? This is the inability to pass stools regularly or empty your bowels completely and can vary from one-off experiences to chronic, long-term constipation.
Symptoms: Bloated abdomen, cramps, nausea and loss of appetite.
What causes it? Not eating enough fibre – we should have 18g a day – and not drinking enough fluids, ignoring the urge to pass stools and anxiety or depression can all contribute.
Deal with it: Making lifestyle and diet changes and regular exercise can ease constipation. Some people need laxatives in
the short-term. Talk to your pharmacist.
Lactose Intolerance
Getty Milk
What is it? This is the inability to absorb the natural sugar found in milk – lactose – because your body lacks enough of the enzymelactase to break it down.
Symptoms: Bloating and looser stools after having milk or other dairy products, such as yoghurt and cheese.
What causes it? It runs in families and can also be triggered by some digestive conditions, which seem to decrease the production of lactase.
Deal with it: Try cutting out dairy products; if your symptoms return when dairy is consumed again, then you should switch to a low-lactose diet.
Peptic ulcer
Getty Could it be a peptic ulcer
What is it? Also known as gastric ulcers, these are open sores that develop in the stomach lining, although they can also form further along the intestine.
Symptoms: A burning pain in the centre of the abdomen.
What causes it? One of the two triggers are H.pylori bacteria infections, which are common and it’s possible to be infected without knowing, as there are no symptoms. The other trigger is the overuse of non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs), such as ibuprofen and aspirin.
Deal with it: See your GP, who can prescribe antibiotics for H.pylori and proton pump inhibitors – if NSAIDs are the cause – which will reduce gastricproduction.
WHEN TO WORRY
Although digestive symptoms are usually harmless, if they persist, they could signal serious illness such as bowel cancer, warns Dr Emmanuel.
So, see your doctor if you have taken a pharmacy remedy for a digestive problem for two weeks with no improvement or you have one of these five ‘hardcore’ symptoms:
• A sudden, persistent change in the pattern of how your bowels work.
• Bleeding from the back passage.
• Increasing heartburn, indigestion or other stomach pain.
• Losing weight unexpectedly.
• Difficulty swallowing.
How to maintain good gut health
Getty Think twice about your vices
1. Eat properly
Eat slowly, chew thoroughly and sit upright for effective digestion. Eat at least two hours before bed, don’t skip meals and drink plenty of fluids – but be careful with fibre. Although it’s good for stimulating the bowel, it can also cause bloating and excessive gas in some people with IBS, says Dr Emmanuel.
Dried fruits, such as apricots, figs and prunes may be a better solution for constipation, he suggests, because they contain soluble fibre, which turns to a gel in the stomach and binds with other digestible material, therefore softening stools.
2. Beware FODMAPs
“These are sugars that are incompletely absorbed in the small intestine but travel down to the large intestine or colon where they are fermented — releasing gas and causing bloating,” explains Dr Nick Read, gastroenterologist and Chair of the IBS Network (theibsnetwork.org).
FODMAP foods include onions, pears, apples and stone fruits – such as peaches and plums – and vegetables such as broccoli, sprouts, cabbage and spring onions.
Try fruit and vegetables that are better tolerated, such as bananas, kiwi and citrus fruits, potatoes, courgettes, carrots and parsnips.
3. Beat stress
“Stress takes blood away from the digestive system, drying up the secretions that help us digest food and also sending the muscles into spasm, hence that stomach ache,” explains Dr Read.
“Avoid eating when you’re stressed and build healthy stress relievers into your lifestyle.
“You could try relaxing with a book, going for a swim or having a massage.”
4. Get moving
Exercise is vital for good digestive health but don’t overdo it – strenuous activity can exacerbate symptoms, such as diarrhoea. And time it right.
If you exercise within two hours of eating a meal, then not only will you feel sluggish but the exercise will inhibit digestion causing digestive symptoms such as nausea or abdominal cramping.
5. Mind your medicines
Certain medicines can cause – and exacerbate – digestive problems, says Dr Emmanuel.
Non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs), such as ibuprofen, should be avoided if you have an ulcer or you get indigestion. Certain tranquillisers, painkillers, iron tablets and cough medicines can cause constipation, while antibiotics and blood pressure pills can trigger diarrhoea.
Talk to your GP about side effects and alternatives.
6. Think twice about your vices
Smoking triggers and aggravates peptic ulcers and inflammatory conditions of the bowel and increases the risk of stomach cancer, says Dr Emmanuel.
Binge drinking increases acid production, also causing heartburn and exacerbating digestive disorders.
7. Cut back on meat
Although a great source of protein, meat can ferment in the gut, resulting in the production of toxins.
Have bacon, ham, sausages and salami as an occasional treat and eat no more than one 80g portion (the size of a pack of cards) of beef, lamb or pork per day. Try to eat fish every other day instead.

Warrington and Hull could produce the Wembley classic we've been wanting for some time
| null | null |
www.mirror.co.uk

The top two sides in Super League clash in today’s Challenge Cup final - and all the ingredients are there for the Wembley classic we’ve wanted for some time.
In the two league games between the teams this season there’s been almost nothing between them.
Hull have edged them both, but I wouldn’t read too much into that - when the best sides meet it’s often a little bit of luck that can decide matters.
I’ve no doubt Hull will take confidence from the fact that they’ve won twice - but equally Warrington will be aware that they’ve been fully in both contests.
There are key battles all over the pitch, and everyone will look at the hookers, where Hull’s Danny Houghton takes on Daryl Clark and Brad Dwyer for the Wolves.
Magi Haroun/REX/Shutterstock Warrington are gunning for glory at Wembley
Warrington are the best side running out of dummy half in the competition.
Not only is there Clark and Dwyer, but Stefan Ratchford and Matty Russell get in there regularly as well.
But that needs to be on the back of their forwards consistently bending the Hull defensive line - and that’s the crucial area for me.
Wembley is a tiring place to play when you’re a “middle” - there aren’t many games bar internationals where you spend 10 minutes on the field before kick-off but this is one.
PA Wembley's big pitch will influence proceedings
That can be energy draining and the players on both sides will have to deal with that.
Hull’s approach is based on the power game - they have one of the strongest 1-17s in the game in terms of tackle breakers, and Warrington need to manage that.
Then there’s the fact that Hull have never won at Wembley - but I think that will act as motivation for them rather than being a negative.
I hate sitting on the fence but I can’t split the two teams and that’s an exciting prospect - maybe we’ll all be off to Huddersfield in midweek for a replay.

Kanye West took to the stage at Sunday night's MTV Video Music Awards to deliver one of his all to familiar speeches - and also debut his latest music video.
The raunchy video accompanies his single Fade and features his longtime protegee Teyana Taylor.
The Flashdance inspired clip, which is currently a Tidal exclusive, features an oiled-up Teyana writhing around in a pair of tiny grey undies and a crop top.
Risking complaints about what was being shown pre-watershed, Teyana later takes a shower with her fiance, NBA star Iman Shumpert, and things get very steamy.

Tributes have poured in for three Brits killed in Italy's earthquake this week as the death roll rose to 281.
Among the dead are Marcos Burnett, 14, and married couple Maria and Will Henniker-Gotley, from the UK.
They died in the 6.2 magnitude quake that struck early on Wednesday morning, which saw three small towns levelled.
Marcos attended Wetherby School in Marylebone, central London, and his headteacher Nick Barker told The Times he would be missed by all that knew him.
He had been the captain of his year's basketball team and was also described as "utterly charming, personable and engaging company".
UK Foreign Office Marcos Burnett, 14, died in the disaster
Mrs Henniker-Gotley, 51, from Stockwell, south London, was a finance manager at The Prince's Foundation for Children & the Arts in Bethnal Green, east London, while her husband, 55, is thought to have worked as an IT consultant.
Jeremy Newton, the charity's chief executive, described her as "totally dedicated, meticulous and professional".
UK Foreign Office Maria and Will Henniker-Gotley
He said: "The whole team is shocked and saddened by the news of her death and that of her husband Will, who was also a staunch supporter of our work."
Sky News Marcos was 'utterly charming, personable and engaging company'
It is believed Mr and Mrs Henniker-Gotley owned a property in Sommati, a village about 1.3 miles from Amatrice and their two children, believed to be aged 12 and 14, survived.
Marcos and his family were staying with the Henniker-Gotleys.
His parents, Anne-Louise and Simon Burnett, were both taken to hospital and their daughter also survived.

The tributes came as a neighbour told The Daily Telegraph how he rushed out in the middle of the night to try to rescue those trapped under the rubble with the light of his mobile phone.
Bruno Formicola, 50, said that having "heard cries for help in English from underneath," he managed to rescue two teenagers.
"Then there was a big aftershock and we had to wait. We started again, even though it was very dangerous as we were afraid the wall would collapse," he said.

A state of emergency has been declared in the areas affected and aftershocks have continued to strike, including one of a preliminary magnitude of 4.7 on Friday morning.
The Queen donated an unspecified amount to the British Red Cross, of which she is a patron, to support the Italian Red Cross in its relief efforts, Buckingham Palace said.
Cornwall-based charity Shelterbox has sent a team over to Italy to assist with setting up accommodation for those displaced by the earthquake, while the British Red Cross has set up a section on its website for donations to be sent to their Italian counterparts.
Celebrity chef Jamie Oliver, meanwhile, announced that for a month £2 from each Pasta Amatriciana dish sold at his restaurant will be sent to help relief efforts.

Exeter manager Paul Tisdale has named himself on the bench for their Checkatrade Trophy clash with Oxford.
The Grecians have endured something of an injury crisis at the start of the season and sit in the relegation places of League Two after five games.
Tisdale, 43, ended his playing career with Exeter in 2011 but re-registered three years later due to a sickness bug.
He is on the bench at Grenoble Road, alongside 15-year-old Ethan Ampadu.

The much-maligned competition has been introduced this season in place of the Johnstone's Paint Trophy, for League One and Two outfits.
There have been multiple changes, most notably the inclusion of Under-23 sides from the Premier League and Championship.
The competition has been met with a largely negative response with low attendances expected across the opening round of fixtures.

Bank of England's chief economist branded 'irresponsible' after claiming property better than pensions

Haldane earns £182,088 at the Bank of England and claims not to be wealthy
The Bank of England ’s chief economist was branded “irresponsible” after claiming property was a better bet for retirement than a pension.
Andy Haldane said he owned two homes - one in Surrey and a holiday home on the Kent coast - and is in line for an £84,000-a-year pension.
But when asked by the Sunday Times whether property or pensions were better for retirement planning, he opted for property.
He said: “It ought to be pension but it’s almost certainly property.
Haldane says house prices will keep rising as not enough homes are being built
“As long as we continue not to build anything like as many houses in this country as we need to meet demand, we will see what we’ve had for the better part of a generation, which is house prices relentlessly heading north.”
He added: “I would quite like the day to come when that wasn’t the case but we’ve got a lot of catching up to do.”
Mr Haldane caused controversy in May when he said he could not make the “remotest sense of pensions.”
He also claimed he was not wealthy despite being paid £182,088 a year.
Banks making things deliberately complicated and it could ruin you - this is how to cut through the nonsense

Getty Baroness Altmann says people shouldn't rely on property rather than pensions
The economist defended his remarks, saying: “I must admit when I said that pensions were complicated, I hadn’t expected it to be a statement of great controversy.
“My experience since then has rather reinforced the impression that most other people find them complicated too.”
Former pensions minister Baroness Altmann said his comments were “divorced from reality” and it was “irresponsible” to suggest people should rely on property rather than pensions.

Thousands of women are having heart attacks misdiagnosed - with fatal consequences
Thousands of women having heart attacks are misdiagnosed – often with fatal consequences.
The condition is 50% more likely to be missed in women than in men, with many female patients wrongly told they have other conditions such as indigestion.
Women whose heart attacks are not diagnosed are 70% more likely to die, according to a British study presented at the world’s biggest heart conference.
Dr Mike Knapton of the British Heart Foundation, which helped fund the study, said: “The difference is alarmingly high.”
Experts fear doctors and patients mistakenly believe heart attacks affect only fat middle-aged men who smoke.
Dr Chris Gale, who worked on the nine-year review of 600,000 patients, said: “We need to work harder to shift the perception that heart attacks only affect a certain type of person. If you watch something like ER on TV it’s just blokes with high blood pressure. This is not always the case.
Thinkstock Women whose heart attacks are not diagnosed are 70% more likely to die, according to a British study presented at the world’s biggest heart conference
“Heart attacks affect the wider spectrum of the population – including women.”
Around 28,000 women die from heart attacks every year across the country – an average of 77 a day. Every three minutes someone in the UK suffers a coronary. Being diagnosed quickly and correctly is vital to ensure the best chance of recovery.
Dr Gale told the annual congress of the European Society of Cardiology in Rome: “The risk is that a woman presents late as she doesn’t recognise she’s having a heart attack.
"She goes to her GP, and they don’t call for an ambulance so instead she goes to A&E eventually, and by the time she sees a specialist it’s a late diagnosis.
“When people with a heart attack receive the wrong initial diagnosis, there are potentially important clinical repercussions, including an increased risk of death.”
Getty Around 28,000 women die from heart attacks every year across the country
Almost a third of patients had an initial diagnosis that differed from their final one, found the University of Leeds study published in the European Heart Journal Acute Cardiovascular Care today.
A heart attack is caused when a blood clot forms in a narrowed coronary artery, cutting off the blood supply to the heart.
Symptoms vary, but the most common are tightness, pain or a burning feeling in the chest, pain in the arms, neck, jaw, back or stomach, shortness of breath, nausea or vomiting.
NHS England said: “Survival rates for heart attacks are the best they have ever been, and swift diagnosis and treatment is key to this. We are working hard to continually improve tests for accurately diagnosing heart attacks in both men and women.
“We are also working to increase awareness of signs and symptoms of heart attack among both the public and healthcare professionals to help speed up diagnosis.”
Heart attack horror
Alison Fillingham was diagnosed two days late
Former nurse Alison Fillingham, 49, did not recognise the symptoms of her heart attack 11 weeks ago – and was misdiagnosed.
The mum from Bolton said: “I had pain in my collarbone and neck for two days. When it spread to my jaw I called an ambulance.
“They said it was just a panic attack. Later I was diagnosed as having had a heart attack. I wish I’d recognised the symptoms and called the ambulance immediately.”

Meet the baby monkey who looks JUST like Harry Potter's arch enemy Voldemort
| null | null |
www.mirror.co.uk

This magical moment at a UK zoo saw a baby monkey brought in to the world with a striking resemblance to Harry Potter ’s nemesis, Voldemort.
The Dark Lord’s lookalike was delivered by C-section at Paignton Zoo in Devon after complications in pregnancy of her mother, Ivy.
It was the first time staff had carried out the procedure on a primate.
Both king colobus monkeys are now being cared for around-the-clock by keepers and doing well.
Vet Jo Reynard, who performed the procedure, said: “Ivy had reached her due date but been off her food and inactive for two days.

“A quick x-ray confirmed that the baby’s head was engaged in the pelvis ready to come out.
“Later that evening we became concerned as her health was deteriorating and with no signs of normal labour progressing, we decided to do a C-section to save Ivy’s life and that of the baby.”
Ghislaine Sayers, head of veterinary services at Paignton Zoo, said: “We have only done three C-sections here in the last 16 years. Jo, our surgeon on this occasion, has performed them on dogs, cats, cows and sheep before – but never a primate.

(Photo: SWNS)
"It’s not so common in zoos – most zoo animals manage to give birth by themselves. Introducing a new life into the world is always special.”
Jo added: “The hardest bit in these circumstances is knowing when to intervene and when to leave the mum alone to give birth naturally.
"It is an exciting thing to be involved in, but the overriding feeling is concern for the mother and this can make you a bit apprehensive. You want to do the best job you can for her.”
Weighing a healthy 567g, the young ape is now living in a mobile incubator and feeding on powdered baby milk until she is able to suckle on a bottle.

Meet the glam mum and daughter from the UK who are taking the US beauty pageant scene by storm.
Sarah Louise Pritchard, 41, and Ella Ravenscroft, 18, were crowned Mrs Galaxy UK and Miss Teen Galaxy England after entering the competition together for the first time earlier this year.
Their win secured them a place at the 2017 Galaxy International pageant in Orlando, Florida, where they joined dozens of other beauty queens from across the world in the race for the global crown.
The pair, from Salford, flew out to the States last week as part of an 11-strong ‘Team UK’ which was made up of winners from the UK competitions.
Sarah is a 'HD Brow Master' who has shaped the eyebrows of celebrities including Helen Flanagan and Michelle Keegan, the Manchester Evening News reports .
MEN Mum and daughter are hoping to achieve great success
She wowed judges placing first in every stage of competition, which saw her bag the title of Mrs Galaxy International 2017.
Former Irlam and Cadishead High School pupil Ella was named fourth runner up in the Miss Teen Galaxy competition.
Size 16 Sarah was the first plus-sized contestant to scoop the international crown and hopes it sends a message to all women that it’s not all about being skinny.
Sarah said: “Me and my husband Martin have six children between us, four of them girls
"I was constantly hearing them go on about their weight and how they looked and I realised that me dieting all the time and trying to lose weight wasn’t sending them the right message, they are all so beautiful and I wanted to show them this.
"I decided on a whim to enter the competition and the next day I thought, ‘God, what have I done?!’
The pair have already won titles
"I was worried about being curvier and being thought of as the ‘fat one’ on stage, but I wanted to show the kids.
"It was really frightening the first time for Mrs Galaxy UK, I cried to my husband the night before, but when I got up there and did it and won I was so proud of myself.
"I had been up against these beautiful women with incredible figures and I couldn’t get my head around it. I was hoping to just finish in the top five or 10.”
“Going to Florida with Ella was an amazing experience, we were a proper mother and daughter team.
MEN Ella placed 5th in the Miss Teen Galaxy competition
"I was really out of my comfort zone with the bikini shoot – they were all size 8-10 and I was a 16, but again I did it and was so proud of myself.
“I won every category and was so humbled that a bigger and curvier girl had achieved this, I thought it was brilliant that it was accepted you don’t have to be the stereotypical beauty queen.”
Despite missing out on the top prize, HD Brow technician Ella, who was snapped up last year by Manchester’s Nemesis modelling agency and works with her mum from their home salon, is set to fly back to the States in November to train with the world-renowned Make Up By Sheila.
Ella added: “It’s going to be amazing. I’m so excited!”

There is no better feeling in football than the late winner.
A case in point: Marcus Rashford snatching three points for Man United at Hull. After 92 minutes of hard work in the pouring rain, the 18 year-old's last gasp goal secured a precious 1-0 victory for The Red Devils… and sparked some CRAZY celebrations.
The manager jumped for joy. The fans went bonkers.
JMP/REX/Shutterstock Think they're a bit pleased?
And judging by Luke Shaw's post-match interview - which you can see in the clip above - the players were buzzing.
Take a look and you will see just how delighted the left-back was with his team's dramatic victory. You can virtually see the adrenalin still pumping through his veins.
"Emotion-wise, that was the best I have ever felt on a pitch," he says. "It was an unreal feeling.
"Even a few of the lads have said it was back to the old days, when they used to smash and grab. The fans managed to get on the pitch, which made it even more special. It meant so much to all of us. Matches like these can win you championships."
Getty Luke Shaw: a very happy boy right now
So, what do we learn from this video? Well…
1. The Man United dressing room is jumping right now.
2. The players are already comparing themselves to the club's title-winning sides of the past.
3. Jose Mourinho's boys are already thinking about how they can win the Premier League this season.
Be afraid, Premier League rivals. Be very, very afraid.

The feud between Louis Walsh and Christopher Maloney looks set to rumble on as the two have traded blows yet again.
X Factor star Christopher Maloney reignited the war of words earlier this week when he called Louis Walsh a non-entity, but Louis came back fighting.
Chris, who came third on the ITV show in 2012, told the Liverpool Echo that he would be watching the new series of the show that made his name - but said he was "miffed" about the return of his old nemesis, Louis.
PA Louis has blasted his nemesis Christopher Maloney
The Irishman returns to the judging panel alongside Simon Cowell, Nicole Scherzinger and Sharon Osbourne.
"I’m looking forward to it but I’m a bit miffed that Louis has come back," Chris said. "He's a non-entity on the show but they've brought him back." Ouch!
Well, Louis heard the harsh words thanks to Xtra Factor host Rylan Clark telling him what Maloney had said, and in true Louis style, he put the Scouser back in his place.
THAMES TV/SYCO X Factor 2012 contestant Christopher Maloney failed to win the competition
After first of all acting as if he didn't remember who Chris was, Louis said: "Oh, the karaoke singer who wears lots of make-up! He is awful."
The fight comes days after Mr Walsh admitted that he's banned from joining Twitter because he's a "loose cannon" and he'd constantly be getting sued.
Speaking at the launch of The X Factor on Thursday, he said when asked why he's not on the popular site: "I'll tell you why because I'm a loose cannon. I'm going to get sued.
ITV Louis is an integral part of the X Factor again
"I like to say what I really feel and sometimes people don't like that. I'll have to talk to my lawyers."
Meanwhile, Louis has made no secret of the fact that he's glad the last series of the singing show was a "flop."
The Irish businessman - who was dropped from the show last year and replaced with Nick Grimshaw - said recently: "I was smug the first night I sat down to watch the show last year.
"It didn't work. I had a talk with Simon every week and he said: 'I want you back.' He'd have had me back in the middle of the series, if he'd had his way."

Skipping hand in hand, Rosie and Ruby Formosa look like any sisters starting off at school.
But conjoined at birth, the twins have defied huge odds to get this far – after coming through a five-hour operation to separate them, which they were not expected to survive.
The girls, now four, were born joined at the abdomen and shared part of their intestine.
They were separated by emergency surgery at Great Ormond Street Hospital two hours after they were born in 2012.
Their parents, Angela and Daniel, had been warned the identical twins had a low chance of survival when medics discovered they were conjoined.
But, amazingly, they will now start primary school next month.
PA Rosie (left) and Ruby Formosa will start school next month
Angela, 35, of Bexleyheath, Kent, said: “Four years ago it wasn’t in my mind that this would ever happen.
“I didn’t think I’d ever see their first day at school so it is really amazing and all thanks to GOSH.”
She said it was “heartbreaking” when she discovered the girls had the medical condition that accounts for one in 200,000 births.
PA Rosie (left) and Ruby were born joined at the abdomen and shared part of their intestine
Angela said: “At 16 weeks, they sent me to King’s College Hospital, where they found the connection between the girls. I was already worried they were monoamniotic (where twins share an amniotic sac) and conjoined was the worst outcome.
“I was really scared and upset because I was told there was a high possibility that the girls wouldn’t survive the pregnancy.
“If they did survive the pregnancy, they might not survive the birth, then they might not survive surgery.
“They couldn’t tell what was connecting them. I didn’t prepare to bring them home. It wasn’t until they were in hospital and they’d had their operation that my husband started getting everything ready for them at home.”
PA Proud parents Angela and Daniel with their girls (left to right) Ruby and Rosie
Rosie and Ruby were born at University College, London, by caesarean section when Angela was 34 weeks pregnant.
The twins will start school next month with their sister Lily, nine.
Angela added: “They’re very excited. They are very bubbly little girls, very headstrong and very determined.”

Katie Price has slammed claims she's 'pimping out' her children on Instagram, insisting they can use the series to further their own showbiz careers.
The 38-year-old star has broken the age Terms and Conditions of the photo sharing website by allowing her 11-year-old son Junior and nine-year-old daughter Princess to join the service even though the minimum age is 13.
Katie has been criticised for her decision to allow her two kids - her offspring with her ex-husband Peter Andre - on the platform and she has now defended her parental decision insisting the pair need to be on Instagram due to their burgeoning TV and media careers.

Speaking on the panel of Loose Women on Tuesday, she said: "No buts, I don't care. This is the point I am in no way a bad parent. I've got five beautiful, healthy, loving and well-mannered children.
"My kids have been brought up in the industry with their dad and me on TV shows, everyone knows who they are. Now they are being booked themselves for TV shows, modelling jobs and stuff like that. Social media is the future... The accounts are open but if you look on it they have contacts for work, they're getting booked for things, it's a business thing...
"They've grown up in the industry, they're dad had them on his reality show for five years, they've been on my shows and they're on my horse show."

Katie also revealed Junior and Princess - who appear with her on her new TLC TV show Katie Price's Pony Club - have very strict rules they must abide by to keep their accounts and she vets everything that they post and she won't allow either of them on any other social media platforms.
The former glamour model also insists she has done nothing out of the ordinary by allowing her two kids on Instagram as most of their school friends already have accounts.
ITV Katie-Price
She explained: "I won't allow them on Facebook, Snapchat, Twitter. All their friends who are nine and 11 are on Instagram, some are open, some are private. I've been saying, 'No, no, no.' Look, the show is out with them and I went, 'If you want to be on Instagram, I have your password and you go on it when I'm next to you or you're not on it at all.' Anyone who tries to direct message them I delete it. So I'm in absolute in full control of it.
"But what can I do? They want to be normal, they're like, 'All our friends are on it.' Princess wants to speak to her friends. I'm like, 'But you've been at school with them all day, what else is there left to say?' But I remember I would want to phone my friends when I got back from school talking rubbish because that's what you do ... I will protect them with my heart."

Young woman spends decade battling alopecia and says 'I might not have hair but I have become a better person'

Selfies have helped Yasmin Taylor to appreciate her look even without her natural hair. File photo
A woman who has spent almost 10 years living with hair loss says that her alopecia has made her a better person.
Yasmin Taylor is a prolific poster on Instagram, sharing her friends, fun times and food - as well as stunning shots of herself.
But the bald head she sports was a result of alopecia, diagnosed when she was 15 and total when she was 19 - and the 24-year-old says sometimes she does struggle with her look.
Yasmin, who is originally from Wisborough Green, West Sussex, has become a poster girl for the hairloss condition with fellow sufferers taking courage from her posts.
The stunning brunette hid her bald patches from family and friends for years, but says that letting go of the wig she wore has helped her get used to her own unique look.

The personal trainer, who now lives in Abu Dhabi, has more than 1,000 followers on Instagram , many of them devoted to her style and confidence, and she says the real world does treat her similarly.
"I keep getting private messages about how I inspire people with my posts on alopecia and it warms my heart.
"People [in real life] act differently, some stare, some ask about, some act like it's perfectly normal. It varies but on a whole it's all good!" she reveals .
But she admits she isn't always so happy in her own skin, and has worked to get to the level of acceptance she has now.

"I find it so strange how alopecia makes me feel so self confident yet so self conscious at the same time," she admits .
"Some weeks I look in the mirror and don't even take a second look at my head, I go out and don't even notice the weird looks I get - it just doesn't phase me.
"But then some days I look at myself in the mirror and just see a gross horrible mess and I feel like just covering it up because I can't even bare to look at it and it gets me frustrated.
A photo posted by Yasmin Taylor ✈ (@yasmintaylor5) on Jun 28, 2016 at 12:17pm PDT
"The days I feel gross I push myself not to cover it up because I don't want to feel like I'm hiding it.
"If you notice... I said 'some weeks' and 'some days' basically I'm just trying to get across that I feel good about myself 90% of the time, it's just hard sometimes and I do really struggle with finding myself attractive which is something I'm trying to work on."
She says that she knows her feelings are really normal: "I know I'm not alone with any of this and people who suffer with alopecia or any other disorders which makes them look different will feel exactly the same, they will also have good days/weeks months and bad days/weeks/months.
A photo posted by Yasmin Taylor ✈(@yasmintaylor5) on Aug 30, 2016 at 2:39am PDT
"We are only human at the end of the day, we can only handle so much and you have to accept that."
For anyone strugglign to come to terms with the condition, she adds: "Beauty is in the eye of the beholder and one day you and I will be perfect to someone. But until that day comes focus on loving yourself, flaws and all!
"Be kind, be confident, be positive, be creative, be you! Don't worry about others. Let your personality shine through! Alopecia has changed me so much as a person, I like to think in a good way.
"I might not have my hair anymore but I have become a better person and for me that is more important."
A photo posted by Yasmin Taylor ✈ (@yasmintaylor5) on Feb 13, 2015 at 1:44am PST
Yasmin posts selfies with her natural hair occasionally , writing about how she misses it.
But she is also happy to share images of her current stunning look.
She recently posted the top image, writing: "I've been lazy and haven't shaved it for I think five days now but I will be shaving it today, I think it looks better after a shave as the patches aren't as visible!
"I can't decide if it's still falling out or if it has stopped! The patch on the left has got bigger but the sides of my head has new hair - it can't decide what it wants to do!"
She reveals: "I honestly used to hate the sight of these patches, the back is very patchy too, but lately I'm starting to like them... It's a crazy unique pattern on my head! It's a mess but it's one of a kind....literally!
"For all of you that know me, you'll know that I'm not a girly girl - I hate dressing up, I can only ever be bothered to put mascara on which will probably be on the weekend and if I'm really making an effort I'll put some lipstick on occasionally.
"So the fact I don't have to worry about doing my hair everyday is a blessing for me!
A photo posted by Yasmin Taylor ✈(@yasmintaylor5) on Aug 20, 2016 at 8:06am PDT
"Every cloud has a silver lining - just because you might not have as much hair as the person sitting next you, doesn't make you any less of a person or any less beautiful."
Comments on her posts include, "You're ludicrously beautiful," "You look hotter bald anyway," and "You are such an inspiring person. God bless you."

Manchester United boss Jose Mourinho heaps praise on "marvellous" match-winner Marcus Rashford

Manchester United manager Jose Mourinho was full of praise for teenage sensation Marcus Rashford after he came on to score a late winner against Hull City.
Mourinho sent Rashford on with 20 minutes to play with United trying to find a winner at the KCOM Stadium.
In the 92nd minute he lost his marker in the penalty box and converted Wayne Rooney's cross to secure all three points for the visitors.
Mourinho was quick to congratulate his match-winner as he came into the dressing room at full-time. “I gave him a big smile and a big hug. I think he is marvellous and he is working very well.”

It's now three wins from three Premier League games for United as they maintained their 100% record. It didn't always look like they were going to get the win as Hull City defended resolutely.
The home side sat back and challenged United to try and break them down. For almost 94 minutes the away side couldn't find a way through, until Rashford came on to steal the headlines.
The England international said he'd been waiting to take his chance.

"First away game for me this season and happy to get the three points and goal," he said. "The fans came onto the pitch to celebrate and that is part of football.
"I am getting on in training and waiting for moments like this. It is being amazing being around players like Zlatan Ibrahimovic every day, I am learning a lot from them."
Rashford was the hero, but Mourinho was pleased with the way the whole team kept plugging away. “Especially in the second half we were so intense in our attacking wave," he said

"They (Hull City) couldn’t counter-attack because we played very well defensively. Every time we lost the ball we recovered.”
“They gave everything, they did well. You only win these matches if you want to win a lot. If you are comfortable and you just wait to see what happens... you won’t.”

Has a Justin Bieber sex tape leaked? Hashtag trends on Twitter as fans go wild

A Justin Bieber sex tape hashtag is trending on Twitter and Beliebers are frantically searching the internet for proof.
Fans went wild on Sunday after pictures emerged of Justin showing his bare bum during a raunchy PDA with new girlfriend Sofia Richie on holiday in Mexico - and now rumours are doing the rounds that they were filmed having sex with the video leaking online.
Snaps published by Mail Online show Justin with his buttocks showing and he has been accused by fans of having sex in public after the steamy session with Sofia.
Mirror Celeb has reached out to Bieber's rep for a comment.

It seems an unidentified chap in a white shirt appears to have interrupted the new couple and Justin ends up rearranging himself as he bares his behind.
One fan wrote on Twitter: "Thanks Justin. I officially don't know how to defend you in front of my friends/family anymore. # justinssextapeleakedparty."
Another added: "LOL at Justin Bieber. Talking about privacy when you literally have sex in public. Cmon fam, you know they always catch you."
But not everyone was convinced, with one follower writing: "You know celeb fangirl Twitter is made up of 14 yo girls when # justinssextapeleakedparty starts trending when he kisses his gf topless."
Another added: "i like justin but im living for this drama # justinssextapeleakedparty."
WENN.com The pair were getting steamy
If there was any doubt over Justin and Sofia's relationship status, the steamy snaps of them packing on some serious PDA confirmed they're very much an item.
Bieber whisked the 18-year-old off to Cabo San Lucas, Mexico, for her surprise 18th birthday present and the young pair were spotted getting hot and heavy under the sun.
One shot shows the Love Yourself singer, who is wearing a pair of light pink shorts and a grey baseball cap, planting a passionate kiss on the blonde who has her legs wrapped around his waist and her arms wrapped tightly around his neck.
Another seriously steamy shot shows her lying on her back with her legs in the air wearing a black bikini top and white bottoms, while Justin leans in to kiss her.

EU trade deal with US 'doomed' as German minister reveals talks have collapsed

German Economy Minister Sigmar Gabriel has announced the collapse of TTIP talks
The controversial trade deal between the EU and the United States looked doomed yesterday after Germany said the talks had collapsed.
Germany Economy Minister Sigmar Gabriel said the negotiations on the Transatlantic Trade and Investment Partnership (TTIP) had “essentially failed.”
The US-EU deal is aimed at removing trade barriers between the world’s two biggest trading blocs
But opponents claim it will allow private American firms to bid for lucrative contracts in the health service, paving the way to privatisation.

Recent legal advice said TTIP posed a “real and serious” risk to the NHS .
Mr Sigmar said after 4 rounds of talks the EU and the US had not agreed on a single common chapter out of 27 being discussed.
“In my opinion the negotiations with the United States have de facto failed, even though nobody is really admitting it,” he said.
He added: “The negotiations with the USA have...failed because we Europeans did not want to subject ourselves to American demands.”
REUTERS Barack Obama issued warning to Britain over Brexit
His comments were welcomed by Brexit supporters who believe it will pave the way for UK-US trade talks.
Barack Obama had warned Britain would be “back of the queue” for any new trade deal as TTIP was the priority.
However, others will interpret the looming collapse of TTIP as a warning of how hard it will be for Britain to strike a favourable deal with the US.

This is the golden moment Beyonce gate-crashed a live interview with up-and-coming US star Chance The Rapper.
During his chat with MTV News' Meredith Graves, the Chicago-born performer - real name Chancelor Bennett - was left speechless at Sunday's VMAs when Queen Bey, 34, made a shock cameo in his live broadcast for the US network.
Completely unaware that she'd sneaked up behind him at the Madison Square Gardens bash, the singer - who was nominated for best hip-hop video - was mid-way through a message to Drake when she suddenly appeared over his shoulder.
Initially unaware, it took a few moments for him to realise what was happening - and, of course, his delayed reaction is priceless.
MTV Beyoncé interrupts Chance The Rapper
MTV His reaction was amazing
Doing a double-take as the million-dollar moment unfolds, he quickly shrieks 'oh my God, that was Beyonce' - before running off-camera to embrace the Crazy In Love megastar.
Ever the professional, Beyonce was quick to make amends for the interruption and casually introduced herself to the wide-eyed news anchor.
Offering some brief chit-chat with her, she asked: "How are you? Oh, you're a Virgo too? I love your tattoos. Great meeting you."
Looking typically glamorous in her choice of attire, the chart-topper wowed in a floor-length white dress with sexy sheer panels and a plunging neckline.
MTV They later shared a hug
MTV Beyoncé gave the best interruption
As she left, Chance was left jumping up and down by the A-list surprise, while the stunned reporter was equally lost for words.
He later took to Twitter to share the once-in-a-lifetime moment, captioning a grab with: "This is amazing".
Earlier in the night Beyonce scooped an impressive seven gongs - including the prestigious prize for video of the year for the track Formation. Prior to that she'd performed a 16-minute medley of tracks from her album, Lemonade, while surrounded by dancers dressed as angels.
As red lights flooded the stage, each of the ‘angels’ was shot down during the performance, which viewers believed was a representation of police brutality.

Arsenal are set to revive their interest in Lyon's Alexandre Lacazette, according to reports.
Transfermarketweb say Lyon want a staggering £60million fee for the striker.
It is claimed Arsene Wenger is desperate to sign Lacazette and is prepared to spend big to secure the services of the 25-year-old.
Lacazette's current contract with Lyon expires in 2019.
Brozovic interest
Epsilon Marcelo Brozovic is on Arsenal's radar, the player's agent has claimed
Arsenal are interested in signing Marcelo Brozovic from Inter Milan, the player's agent has said.
It is claimed the Italian giants need to balance the books after their €70million double swoop for Gabriel Barbosa and Joao Mario.
“It’s true, there are many options and we are talking about some big European clubs,” agent Miroslav Bicanic Croatian media.
“I heard that Chelsea representatives are in Milan and that Arsenal are also prepared to sign him. Inter are pushing to sell to one of these two clubs who are prepared to pay a sum that satisfies all concerned."
Arsenal close in on Mustafi
Arsenal are closing in on signing Shkodran Mustafi - after failing in their bid to land Bayer Leverkusen's Omer Toprak, writes Adrian Kajumba.
The Gunners firmed up their interest in experienced Toprak, 27, as negotiations with Valencia for Mustafi stalled.

But the two clubs were unable to agree a fee and the Gunners then made their move for Germany-born Turkish international Toprak.
Arsenal were then unable to reach an agreement over a fee for Toprak, who is rated as one of the Bundesliga's most consistent defenders, with Leverkusen so renewed their attempts to land 24-year-old Germany international Mustafi.
Valencia boss Pako Ayestarán said: "A week ago the offer wasn't enough to get him but now the offer is considerable."
Perez passes medical
Lucas Perez has completed a medical in London and will complete his move to Arsenal this weekend, write John Cross and Ed Malyon.
Arsene Wenger is set to sign the forward for £17million — even though he was turned down by the Gunners one month ago.
The Spanish Deportivo La Coruna striker touched down in the capital on Thursday night ahead of finalising a deal.

Perez has been watched repeatedly by the north London club, but in July they knocked back the chance to sign him.
Yet with pressure from fans demanding action in the transfer market as Wednesday night's deadline looms, manager Wenger has gone back in for the 27-year-old after he appeared to be heading for Everton.

Wenger hits back at Coleman
Arsene Wenger has hit back at claims that Aaron Ramsey's injury was a result of his mis-management, report Mirror Football.
The Arsenal midfielder picked up an injury on the opening day of the season against Liverpool, and Wales manager Chris Coleman was less than impressed.

"I think we all expected Aaron to (miss the start of the season), so I don't know what happened between then and when he ended up on the pitch," said Coleman.
"[Euro 2016] was a long tournament for Aaron, after a long, hard season. So I don't know why he was treated differently."
When asked why Ramsey was played in the season opener against Liverpool, Wenger replied: "Because he didn't play the final or the semi-final."

Blackpool has it all - tradition pleasures like paddling and attractions galore - and is a resort that's not afraid to move with the times

Take a saucy seaside break to Blackpool - the beach town that still rocks
| null | null |
www.mirror.co.uk
|
It’s a saucy seaside postcard town, so hopefully the locals won’t be offended if I say that Blackpool is a bit like Katie Price – more known for its large front than its depth.
Blackpool, they say, has got it all. And if by all you mean a reputation as a glitzy seaside town full of stag and hen parties, then that’s arguably true. Happily, though, on my visit I found there’s a lot more to the story than that.
There were, it’s true, a few spirited pre-nuptial celebrations under way (hello, lady Minions, taking a break in KFC!). But this is clearly a place – as I discovered in a brief straw poll – to which people are incredibly loyal.
They don’t just come here for a youthful weekend – they come back, and they bring their families.
And no wonder. Traditional pleasures, such as paddling and making sandcastles on the enormous expanse of beach that reveals itself when the tide goes out are still a joyful way to spend your time. The resort has, however, not been afraid to move with the times.
Jennifer with the Duckworths at Madame Tussauds
Families have a choice of top attractions many of which are covered by a resort pass combination ticket.
In Madame Tussauds, you’re encouraged to mingle and selfie with the inanimate celebrities. My family – including daughters Rose, six and Ivy, three– enjoyed a trip to Celebrity Juice, was right at home up close with Jeremy Kyle and said ‘hello chuck’ to Corrie’s Jack and Vera Duckworth.
It’s all pretty lifelike: among the sporting legends, we saw several young men put an arm tenderly around the waist of Liverpool football hero Steven Gerrard.
Checking out the Comedy Carpet on the Prom
All the action happens around the iconic 518ft Blackpool Tower. Over the road is the excellent Sea Life Centre, while inside the Tower you’ll find the world’s most hard-pressed but unfailingly helpful customer service team, pointing us to the next dose of fun. In this case, the only way was up!
A feat of Victorian engineering, the Blackpool Tower is now a 21stC treat – complete with 4D cinema experience and an attraction they should have called “terrifying walk on clear glass floor many feet above hard surface” but for some reason chose to call Skywalk. It’s awful. But in the best possible kind of way.
Fear on that level makes me hungry. Fortunately, there’s every outlet you could possibly want to hand, from a top-end Nando’s, a ritzy Pizza Express, and even a flagship Harry Ramsden’s chippie.
Blackpool still rocks
There are bars selling gin, craft beers and cocktails alongside fryers sizzling good old cod and chips. That sort of mixture of traditional and modern feels very Blackpool.
On the front, there are the trams, amusements and arcades – but there are also impressive dune grass sculptures and the Comedy Carpet, an artwork directory inscribed in the prom’s pavement that’s a homage to British comedians from Morecambe and Wise to Victoria Wood via Tommy Cooper.
Next stop, the circus. Forget the Big Top: in Blackpool the circus – that’s Mooky and Mr Boo’s Silver Jubilee Circus Show to you – takes place inside the Tower complex in a historic theatre. It’s an amazing performance, a dizzying mix of slapstick comedy and gymnastic daring.
When your day is as full as a Blackpool day, you’ll want your night to be uninterrupted. Our stay at the Imperial Hotel, in a room with a view of the sands and the wind farms in the Irish Sea, provided a supremely relaxing way to unwind.
And a catchphrase on the comedy carpet seemed appropriate to our Blackpool visit. Nice to see you – to see you nice!

Bakewell tarts, bourbons, iced rings, fig rolls, chocolate fingers, croissants and cake slices.
They all look delicious and a perfect accompaniment for a cup of tea.
Except these biscuits are 19 years old.
Yet despite their age the sugary snacks are in almost pristine condition and have been kept by food psychologist Marisa Peer to try to demonstrate how bad they are for us.
Marisa said: "There is a reason why these foods do not decompose and why they are utterly unappealing to bacteria or insects.
"They have no nutritional value whatsoever and by eating them we are destroying our health."
www.marisapeer.com Marisa has been storing biscuits and treats for almost two decades
Marisa first started her long lasting tuck box - or yuk box as she calls it - 19 years ago when she used cakes and biscuits to illustrate her work in educating people on health eating.
Over the years she has added to and now in her pantry has unopened boxes of mince pies which are years old and loaves of processed white bread which are almost as new.
She says: "I show people the food and then explain how old it is and ask them what they think about eating it now.
"It use it to help overweight children and adults.
"I'll heat up jelly babies to show they are really just sugary glue and and set fire to crisps to show how much oil is in them."
She believes people are brainwashed into eating extremely unhealthy food by marketing and advertising.
She said: "Think of the terms we use, happy meals, angel delight, fun size, they are fat and oil, colour and processed sugar really.
"I think that by showing people these foods which never age it will remind them that they are not eating something natural."

She says her technique works by helping people make unattractive visual associations and next time they pick up a packet of biscuits they would remember her Yuk Box and put them back on the shelf.

Panic as woman lets crickets and worms loose on NYC subway but is it all it seems?

The woman became increasingly distressed before releasing the live bugs
A woman sparked mass hysteria on a New York subway when she let live crickets and worms loose into a packed carriage.
Footage filmed by fellow commuters shows the woman becoming increasingly distressed by a group of teenagers before releasing the creepy crawlies then appearing to wet herself.
Riders on the D Train were locked in with the bugs for half an hour during Wednesday evening rush hour after a passenger pulled the emergency brake on the Manhattan Bridge.

However, the episode may not be all it seems.
On Friday, a woman came forward claiming to have staged the stunt as a prank to raise awareness of how people treat the homeless .
Zaida Pugh said she is an actress and was not concerned about a backlash from inconvenienced commuters.
"Of course they'll be angry with me, but I guess I'm just doing me. I'm waking people up with my shows, my acts," she said.
The teenagers, who she said were also acting, had pushed her as she offered the creepy-crawlies for sale, before knocking the container holding them into the air.

After the crickets were set free, some of them jumped on passengers, who were not in on the prank.
"Never seen a crowd get so panicked so fast, everyone rushed to the other side of the train," one rider, Ezra Mechaber, wrote on Twitter.
"Mass hysteria in a locked, enclosed space is something else."

Nobody can believe what this woman is reading on a train so they're coming up with theories to explain it
Some people whipped out smartphones and began recording.
In one video posted online, the woman yelled, "Why'd you have to hit me?" and "My crickets!"
In another, the woman is seen screaming uncontrollably as riders tried to console her.
The D train, which connects the boroughs of the Bronx with Brooklyn via Manhattan, was stopped on the bridge spanning the East River.
After it began moving again, police officers met the train at the next station.
No one was injured and a New York Police Department spokeswoman said on Friday that they took the woman to a hospital for psychiatric observation.
Police had received no complaints about the episode being a prank, the spokeswoman said.

Dear Coleen: I think my son-in-law is beating up my daughter and I don't know what to do
| null | null |
www.mirror.co.uk
|
Dear Coleen
I have three grown-up daughters and I’m very worried about the middle one. The eldest and youngest don’t put up with any nonsense but my middle daughter has always been quite shy and naive.
When she was 18, she met this guy, who was 34 and married.
He left his wife and two young kids for my daughter, which my husband and I weren’t happy about but he was very charming and swept us all off our feet.
From the start, my daughter adapted to fit his life. She lost touch with all her school friends and his friends became her friends.
She moved into his house and she dyed her hair blonder because that’s how he liked it and she lost weight.
When she became pregnant with their two children he made comments about her weight and after giving birth he’d put her down for not losing the weight quickly enough.
A couple of years ago she turned up at our house at midnight with the kids because they’d had a huge fight and he’d slapped her. My husband and I were furious and wanted to go round there, but she begged us not to.
Since then, I’m convinced it’s happened again but she says it hasn’t. She’s become even quieter than usual, very withdrawn and I’ve noticed bruises on her arms and the odd faded black eye. I’ve begged her to tell me what’s going on but she won’t. What can I do?
Coleen says
I can’t think of anything worse and if this was my daughter, I would want to go round there and kill him.
However, you have to tread carefully because men who abuse their partners are well known for alienating them from their loved ones, so make sure that doesn’t happen to you.
I think you’ve got to keep the lines of communication open without sounding like you’re trying to force her into a decision that she’s clearly not ready to make.
Just keep saying, “If ever you’re in trouble then I am at the end of the phone. You can come here day or night, any time, and we won’t judge
you or force you to leave him. We will just be here for you.”
At the same time, build up the self-esteem that he’s probably driven out of her.
Constantly tell her that she’s a great mum, she is beautiful, kind and strong and that she deserves a happy life.
If she confides in you again, you could also gently suggest she chat to her GP, or speak to someone like the domestic violence charity Refuge (refuge.org.uk).

An enormous mushroom-shaped cloud rises ominously above a Siberian town - sparking fears among witnesses that doomsday has arrived.
The terrifying sight could be seen for miles around and was captured on video from the city of Kemerovo, in Russia's Kemerovo Oblast region.
Emergency services were inundated with calls from worried onlookers that a nuclear bomb had been dropped and that annihilation was imminent.

Others feared there had been an explosion at the coal mines in the nearby Kuzbass region.
In fact, the terrifying-looking spectacle was in reality a rather beautiful, naturally occurring thunderstorm cloud.

Locals including Sergey Zmaznev recorded images and footage of the extraordinary cloud formation.

Hull's Challenge Cup final hero Danny Houghton tastes Wembley glory again EIGHTEEN years after first winning there
| null | null |
www.mirror.co.uk
|
Danny Houghton is mobbed by his teammates after THAT match-saving stop on Ben Currie
Eighteen years after he first helped a Hull team to success at Wembley, Danny Houghton produced one of the best tackles the stadium has seen to clinch the Challenge Cup.
Houghton was unique among his team-mates in that he had tasted success for a Hull side at the national stadium, winning the 1998 schools’ curtain-raiser.
The Black and Whites, famously, had never before won at Wembley, losing seven finals and drawing one, with their three previous triumphs coming elsewhere.
And the hoodoo looked set to continue when Warrington’s Ben Currie surged for the line in the dying stages of a pulsating final quarter.
That was when Houghton – renowned for his remarkable high work-rate in defence – produced a stunning cover tackle that knocked the ball from Currie’s grasp and sparked scenes of wild jubilation among the club’s travelling army of support.
Hero Houghton (circled) back in the day and (inset) celebrating Saturday's triumph
Houghton said: “Everyone wants to play at Wembley and to do it as a young kid was a great feeling.
“But to do it as a pro, and get my hands on the most historic cup ever, I’m buzzing. We’re legends forever now and we’ll go down in history – that’s special.
“We took a lot out of losing here to Wigan in 2013 – it was probably the worst cup final of all time.
“Now to go down as one of the greatest finals of all time perhaps and lift the cup, it’s special.”
PA Hull FINALLY lift the Challenge Cup at Wembley after eight previous attempts
Asked about that tackle, he added: “It’s not about me.
“I’m sure if somebody else had been in that position they’d have done the same thing.”
Houghton’s team-mates placed more significance on the last-ditch effort.
Prop Scott Taylor said: “He’s absolutely unbelievable. He’s one of the best players I’ve ever played with – that tackle on Ben Currie is the best tackle I’ve seen in my career.
“We owe a lot to him, I thought we had lost it.”
Getty Warrington led 10-0 after Currie plunged over for their second try of the game...
PA ...Hull FC's Mahe Fonua celebrates after scoring a try...
PA Wire ...and Jamie Shaul grabbed what would be the winner — thanks to Houghton's tackle
Jamie Shaul, who score the match-winning try, added: “That’s just Danny all over – it’s what he’s been doing all season.
“To pull that out of the bag that late in the game having played 80 minutes, that was unreal.”
Hull were also indebted to three significant kicking contributions from Lance Todd Trophy winner Marc Sneyd.
His 40/20 changed the flow of the game at 10-0 down before he created tries for Mahe Fonua and full-back Shaul, who said he was “screaming my lungs off for the ball” as he supported the half-back.
Best pictures as Hull beat Warrington in the Challenge Cup final:
Warrington looked in control up until then having crossed through Matty Russell and Currie.
And hooker Brad Dwyer insisted they played their full part in a memorable final.
Dwyer said: “If we’d not turned up and done ourselves justice it would have been a different story, but we did and that’s just the way it goes.
“The attitude and effort was definitely there, it’s just a shame that we’ve not come back with a trophy.”

This was the heartwarming video taken when colleagues of a tragic police officer surprised his little boy on his first day at school.
Dad Justin Scherlen died two weeks ago following complications from a car crash while working in Amarillo, Texas.
But, instead of letting one of his children go to school for the first time without a proper goodbye, dozens of Scherlen's colleagues turned up to help wave him off.
A sweet video shows four-year-old Jackson hugging Justin's friends and work colleagues.
Released by the Amarillo Independent School District , it shows the moment the officers bend down one by one to give the boy a hug before his classes start.
Dozens of Scherlen's colleagues turned up to help wave Jackson off
He can be seen giving each a cuddle before marching off down what appears to be a school hallway.
The school later tweeted that the officers were an "army of stand-ins for this important first."
Officer Daniel Smith told KVII : "I'd give it all back just to have Justin here with his son.
“At least we can be here for him and let Jackson know that he always has someone to call on.”

And mum Jessica told abc 7 : “I think his daddy would be very proud of how his brothers and sisters have stepped up to be here for his kids.
“I think Jackson really enjoyed having everyone here.
“Just to know that he’s still loved by the blue family and that they still care. Emotionally, it’s awesome to see.”

How to use colour-correcting concealers to cover dark circles, redness and dullness

We show you how best to use colour-correction concealers
Fancy being absolutely flawless? At first glance, colour correction may look intimidating, but it’s everywhere, and it’s not just a fad. With a little know-how, it’s a shortcut to your best skin ever.
"Women are getting more confident at using pro-style make-up tricks, thanks to online tutorials, and this is the next step from the contouring trend," says make-up artist Cassie Steward.
Here’s how it works. Every colour has an opposite, which neutralises it. If you look at a colour wheel, red is opposite green, for instance.
So if you’re fair-skinned and have a spot, you’ll disguise it better if you apply green colour corrector first, rather than trying to smother it in concealer. If you’re darker skinned, the colour correction rules need to be adjusted to account for your base tones.
The same principle can be used to tackle blue- or purple-toned undereye circles, or yellowy sallow skin, so you instantly cheat the look of a perfect, even canvas.
How to apply
Exfoliate and moisturise skin and apply a primer, so the corrective make-up will glide on evenly and blend smoothly. Pat the colour corrector on lightly with a fingertip ("A brush will make it too thick – you don’t want to see the product sitting there," says Cassie), then add your regular flesh-coloured base make-up over the top.
Experiment – some people get a more natural effect by using foundation first, then adding concealer if needed. Others prefer to do it the other way round. Then set with translucent powder.
Don't be scared!
We’ve put a lot of colour correction make-up on our model, so you can see easily where to apply different corrective shades. It’s NOT meant to be applied that thickly in real life! And you don’t need to apply all the colours at once, of course – simply tailor the technique to what your own skin needs.
Colour correct... Undereye circles
Applying salmon pink corrector before you add concealer will neutralise blue-toned dark circles. If you have darker skin, choose a darker, more orangey tone.
However, if you’re pale and your dark circles are more purple-based, you might find a more yellow-toned corrector suits you better. Buying a colour-corrective palette with different shades is a good way to try out the trend.
Goodbye dark circles!

Colour correct... Redness
If you have light skin, apply a tiny amount of green on top of red areas (typically on cheeks and nose, as well as spots) and blend, then add your base. Be careful to use it only where the red areas are, especially if you’re covering a small area, like a spot, otherwise you’ll make the surrounding skin look sickly.
"Never use green on darker skin," says Cassie. "You can use a peachy shade to balance redness in mixed race, black or Asian skin."
If you’re fair and your skin is ruddy rather than red, a yellow corrector under foundation might give a more natural effect.

Colour correct... Dullness
Fair, sallow skin can be brightened up using a lavender-toned corrector, which counteracts dull yellow undertones. An apricot-toned corrector does the same trick for darker skin. Both can be used lightly as an all-over brightener under foundation.
Another way to boost radiance is to blend a cream concealer a couple of shades lighter than your foundation onto your cheekbones, chin and centre of the forehead to cheat the illusion of more light bouncing off the skin.

Two pilots arrested at UK airport after attempting to board their flight to America 'while drunk'
| null | null |

It’s understood each has the rank of first officer with the airline
Two pilots were arrested yesterday after allegedly attempting to board their flight to America while drunk.
Concerns were raised after the pair tried to pass through a staff check-in at Glasgow Airport before the 9am flight to Newark, New Jersey.
Police were called and the United Airlines flight UA162 was grounded after they were detained.
The incident came six weeks after another two pilots suspected of being over the limit were arrested at Glasgow before they took charge of a long-haul passenger flight.
The United Airlines pair are being held over the weekend at Govan police station, about five miles from the airport, reports the Sunday Mail.
It’s understood each has the rank of first officer with the airline.
A source said: “Concerns were raised and police were called.
“There was a fair police presence as it’s a sensitive and highly secure part of airport.
“Staff are subject to intensive and thorough security procedures in just the same way as passengers. No chances are taken nowadays.”
Their flight’s status was listed afterwards as “scheduled” and it eventually took off with 141 passengers on board at 6.30pm.
A police spokeswoman said yesterday: “We can confirm two men, aged 35 and 45, have been arrested and are presently detained in police custody in connection with alleged offences under the Railway and Transport Safety Act (2003) Section 93.”
The section of the act relates to “carrying out pilot function or activity while exceeding the prescribed limit of alcohol”.
The pair are due to appear at Paisley Sheriff Court tomorrow.
Seats on the 3200-mile flight cost up to £600. United claim to have the “world’s most comprehensive global route network”.
The airline have around 87,500 employees, who work in every US state and in countries round the world.
In the incident last month, two allegedly drunk pilots were detained moments before their long-haul flight was due to leave.
Airport staff watched as police boarded the cockpit of the AirTransat plane on July 16 and removed the men.
The scheduled passenger service had been due to take off at 1pm on a seven-hour flight to Toronto, Canada.
The plane was grounded for the rest of the day while a replacement crew were arranged.
Passengers were put up in hotels overnight and were put on alternative flights the next day.
The pilots were remanded in custody but freed from Low Moss prison near Glasgow a week later.
However, Jean-Francois Perreault, 39, and Imran Zafar Syed, 37, had their passports seized as a condition of bail.
Neither made a plea before the case was continued and both are due to appear again at Paisley Sheriff Court.
Perreault and Syed, from Ontario, Canada, are accused of breaching aviation alcohol limits.
Passengers on the service have been promised up to £500 compensation after they were stranded.

The flight industry has been hit by a series of pilot scandals involving alcohol recently.
Last year, a man was jailed for flying an executive jet from Spain after a three-day binge.
Ian Jennings, 48, from Gosport, Hampshire, was detained at Norwich airport after landing a chartered plane carrying millionaire Andre Serruys plus a woman and three teenage girls.
He was locked up for nine months after being found to be three times legal limit for being in charge of a plane. Last April, a pilot on American airline Jet Blue was charged with flying while drunk with 151 passengers on board.
Dennis Murphy was arrested on a charge of operating a commercial vehicle while under the influence following the flight from Orlando to New York.
Murphy was selected for random alcohol testing after landing at John F Kennedy International Airport in New York.
A month before, an American Airlines co-pilot was charged for drinking alcohol before a weekend flight out of Detroit.
And last August, an AirBaltic flight carrying 109 holidaymakers was grounded in Oslo after four of the five crew members failed alcohol tests. The co-pilot was found to be seven times over the alcohol limit and was sentenced to six months in prison.
The pilot was given 10 months behind bars, while the two flight attendants were sentenced to 45 and 60 days.
A first officer with a major airline such as United typically earns around £110,000.
Although their rank is equivalent to co-pilot and the men arrested yesterday were not captaining the aircraft, their removal left the flight without enough crew members to depart before replacements could be found.
A spokesman for United said: “The two pilots have been removed from service and their flying duties.
SWNS.com
“We are co-operating with the authorities and will conduct our own investigation as well. The safety of our customers and crew is our highest priority.
“Our team at Glasgow Airport have provided our customers with support including meal vouchers and hotel accommodation where required.
"We apologise to our customers for the inconvenience caused.”
A spokesman for Glasgow Airport added: “We are aware of an incident whereby two crew members were arrested this morning.”
The drink-fly limit is stringent.
In the UK, it is 20 milligrammes of alcohol per 100ml of blood – less than half the new Scottish drink-drive limit of 50 mg of alcohol in every 100ml of blood.
Aviation expert Martin Greenfield said: “The dangers for air crew are the same, if not worse, as those presented by drink driving.
“It’s all about safety – this must be paramount at all times. I personally would have no sympathy with any pilot who would take a chance with their alcohol level.
“The Act under which they can be prosecuted covers various roles including a range of operational staff and engineers.
“Pilots and ground staff who fall foul through their own misjudgement face heavy sanctions both in terms of the law and their career.”

Blac Chyna wants to 'charge up to $8,000' for people to see her baby in hospital

It looks like Blac Chyna is determined to save up for her baby's future.
The heavily pregnant reality star is apparently hard at work thinking of ways to make cash before she gives birth.
According to a source, the Rob & Chyna star is considering charging people to see her newborn in the delivery room.
An insider told Now! Magazine : "Blac wants everyone to pay to come into the delivery room and see the baby. She's being serious because it's a serious cash cow."
Rex Features Blac Chyna hopes to make lots of cash
She's not interested in what Rob's family think
But close family members like Khloe Kardashian and Kylie Jenner shouldn't expect to escape without a fee, because apparently Chyna is only willing to offer a free pass to Kris Jenner - and Kim Kardashian at a push.
The insider explained: "The only exception on Rob's side is his mum Kris and maybe his sister Kim because she's been a peacemaker.
"The fee will be depending on what people can afford, but she wants upwards of $8,000," added the source.
The insider went on to claim that while the Kardashians aren't happy about her plans, she's "ready to call them out" if they have anything negative to say.
Paper magazine Blac Chyna on the front cover of Paper magazine
It comes as the 28-year-old model has followed in the footsteps of Kim K, her future sister-in-law, by stripping off for a photoshoot in Paper Magazine.
She told the magazine that she's excited for people to see the connection she shares with Rob.
Chyna explained: "I'm looking forward to showing my relationship with Rob, our day to day, our struggles and what we're dealing with, positive and negative.
"I hope when people think about Blac Chyna, they think of a mogul and entrepreneur, a mother and a badass b**ch," she added.
Mirror Celeb has contacted Chyna's rep for comment.

What happens in a medical? We went to find out what top footballers go through

Clubs up and down the country are frantically trying to push through deals before tomorrow night's deadline.
But once they've had a bid accepted for a player, they still need to put their potential recruit through a stringent medical and hammer out personal terms.
Agreeing contracts is usually straightforward, as although clubs are not allowed to hold formal talks with a player until they have tabled a successful bid, they are often discussed beforehand via their agent.
Now that wages, bonuses and any clauses have all been thrashed out, the final hurdle is the player's medical.
In pictures - Jacob Murtagh's medical:
Ruud van Nistelrooy's move to Manchester United was delayed by 12 months after testing, while Liverpool pulled the plug on the deal to sign Loic Remy a couple of years due to concerns flagged up during his medical.
But what does a medical actually entail? Mirror Football's Jacob Murtagh went along to the world-class facilities at Perform at St George's Park to find out.
Here's his account of a frantic day at the National Football Centre:
I've played football for more than two decades and never had any problems, so I was pretty confident heading into the medical after Mirror Football triggered the £10 release clause in my Beesotted contract.
The club can confirm they have accepted an undisclosed bid from @MirrorFootball for utility man Jacob Murtagh — BeesottedFC (@BeesottedFC) January 19, 2016
But before we start it's important to note a player doesn't just pass or fail a medical.
Perform's clinical director Dr Charlotte Cowie explained: “That is a bit simple compared to what actually happens.
“You're trying to give a club as much information as possible because in the end they have to decide whether they want to take a player or not.”
First I was put through my paces by Perform's leading sports scientist Dr Carl Wells in their state-of-the-art performance lab.
Julian Hamilton/Daily Mirror Slow start: Our man Jake Murtagh warms up on a bike
Julian Hamilton/Daily Mirror Buckle up: Murtagh undergoes the Biodex assessment
After a quick warm-up on the bike, I took part in the Biodex assessment, which is designed to test the strength between muscle groups.
You are strapped into a chair and required to extend your leg by kicking out before pulling it back to the starting position. This was repeated five times, then again with more resistance.
Unfortunately, this highlighted a strength imbalance between my quads and hamstrings. I was told this was common with footballers, so not a massive problem. However, extra work to strengthen my hamstrings was recommended.
Not exactly a storming start.
Julian Hamilton/Daily Mirror Hamstrung: Murtagh's muscles are put through the wringer
Julian Hamilton/Daily Mirror Cause for concern: Results show Murtagh has some weakeness in his hamstrings
Next was the V02 max test, which assesses your aerobic fitness. This is used to feed back to the buying club what level their prospective signing is at. Are they ready to go straight into first-team action?
Or would this risk injury because they are not up to speed and need time working with the fitness staff instead?
You are required to run on a treadmill at varying speeds while breathing into a mask to determine your aerobic capabilities.
This went fairly well. I might not be ready for Premier League action, but I'll have no problem getting through 90 minutes on a Sunday morning.
Julian Hamilton/Daily Mirror On the run: Murtagh tries out the VO2 max test
Julian Hamilton/Daily Mirror
Dr Wells, who was speaking from Perform at St George’s Park, said: “Every player is unique, so you have to notify a club if there is a potential red flag. Then it's their decision whether they work with that or do not sign the player.”
Out of the lab and in to see Dr Cowie. She takes a look at a player's medical and injury record.
Players who have been dogged by injury problems throughout their careers could be high-risk signings, so Dr Cowie needs to determine whether their past will hinder their future performances for the buying club.
She said: “There have been times in the past when you see a player who is so bad that you say there's just no way he can train or play.
Julian Hamilton/Daily Mirror Kneesy does it! Murtagh is given a once over by Dr Charlotte Cowie
“Or there have been instances when you might have to advise a club that their prospective signing has an ongoing injury and they might only be able to do limited training.
“An older player who a club wants because of their experience, you might say if this player trains too much or plays Saturday-Tuesday-Saturday they might break down.”
However, there are some instances where a player 'fails' a medical at one club but is successful elsewhere.
Charlie Austin 's proposed move to Hull in 2013 broke down after testing, only for him to sign for QPR three weeks later.
Julian Hamilton/Daily Mirror State of the art: Perform are based at the National Football Centre in Burton
“Sometimes a manager will want or need a player so much because either their squad is depleted or it's a player he has wanted for a long time that they overlook some injury risks in order to get them,” Dr Cowie added.
"Other times they could be looking for someone who is a long-term investment. If a player has a short-term injury like a calf strain and we are confident that will settle down, then they might be willing to go with that.
“Other times they may be looking at a massive investment of money. They could be looking at two or three other players, there might be something wrong with one of them to say 'we won't go with this player' and go for another option.”
Luckily I've had a clean bill of health throughout my Sunday league career, and after a closer examination I'm given the green light.
Julian Hamilton/Daily Mirror One leg squat: Murtagh is put through his paces
With a spring in my step I head off to see England physio Steve Kemp for an orthopaedic and movement screen.
He takes the medical assessment from the first two parts and goes though it in more detail. He looks at every joint individually, paying particular attention to ankles, knees and hips.
Kemp said: “We look at their mobility and write a report – red, amber or green. The red ones are a real concern, like fluid on the knee. This makes a player a high risk signing.
“Amber things are like weakness in muscles or poor calf capacity. We grade it and then summarise it for the clubs.”
Julian Hamilton/Daily Mirror Feeling the strain: Murtagh is examined by England physio Steve Kemp
Julian Hamilton/Daily Mirror Diagnosis: Kemp breaks the bad news to Murtagh
After a series of stretches and exercises Steve has an issue with my left hip, which could lead to problems later in my career.
This hasn't affected me whatsoever during my life – in fact I didn't even know about it.
Kemp added: “If a player with a really bad knee problem is offered a five-year contract then that's not good management. It might be that they are given a year or two with appearance-based clauses. It protects the club.”
I guess I'll have to forget about the mega-money deal and settle for a couple of pints and a packet of peanuts instead.
Julian Hamilton/Daily Mirror Worth a punt: Murtagh signs for Mirror Football on a pay-as-you-play deal
So in conclusion I'm a bit of a risky signing due to my new-found hip problem. I've discovered more about my body in three hours than I have in the past 30 years.
However, I'm an old head in the dressing and may be worth a punt if any managers need a bit of experience in their squads for the business end of the season.

The end of the transfer window is approaching, with less than a week left for clubs to bring in fresh faces. Managers across the land will be frantically trying to get deals over the line as they put the finishing touches to their squads for the new season. Joe Hart could be heading for the exit door at Manchester City after being dropped by Pep Guardiola, who is set to bring in Claudio Bravo. Will Arsene Wenger bring in reinforcements? Because Arsenal fans need cheering up! Expect plenty of done deals to go through before August 31. We'll have all you need to know right here.
13:43 Blackburn sign two defenders Blackburn have sold one today and now they’ve signed two. Shane Duffy departed to Brighton but Rovers have followed that up with the double capture of Tommie Hoban and Derrick Williams. Centre back Hoban joins from Watford on a season-long loan while left-back Williams, formerly of Bristol City, has penned a three-year deal.
13:36 Forshaw pens new Middlesbrough deal Midfielder Adam Forshaw has committed his future to Middlesbrough after signing a new four-year contract. The 24-year-old has joined Ben Gibson, George Friend and Daniel Ayala in putting pen to paper on a fresh deal in the wake of promotion to the Premier League. “I’m delighted. I’ve enjoyed my time at the club since I’ve been here. My team-mates, the staff, the fans, everyone around the area has been really supportive. “It was a bit of a no-brainer when the contract came up. The club spoke about it to me and my agent at the back end of last season. “It was nice to go into the summer break knowing that if I came back and worked hard, hopefully that would be on the table. “Fortunately, we’ve got it done early in the season, so I can put it to one side and concentrate on the games.”
13:21 key event Mourinho happy with Manchester United squad Jose Mourinho has all-but confirmed that Manchester United’s summer business is done. The Red Devils have splashed out on four new arrivals with Eric Bailly, Henrikh Mkhitaryan, Zlatan Ibrahimovic and Paul Pogba making the move to Old Trafford. But despite suggestions to the contrary Mourinho has revealed that he is happy with his squad as it is and won’t be making any further additions. “I have 23 players in the squad and in principle nobody is leaving, because I don’t want anyone to leave,” Mourinho said at his weekly press conference. “No-one is coming and 23 players is more than enough. “If we have any kind of problem or any kind opportunity, I have a few young players in the academy that I will be more than happy to give an acceleration in that process and to bring them up now and again.” Getty
13:04 Brighton sign Blackburn's Duffy Shall we have a done deal? Go on then. Blackburn have confirmed that central defender Shane Duffy has joined Brighton. As we reported earlier the deal is for four years and is a club record for the Seagulls.
12:50 Manchester United set for Van Persie reunion In other news, Manchester United have been drawn against Robin van Persie’s Fenerbahce side in the group stages of the Europa League. The Red Devils have also been pitted against Feyenoord and Ukrainian side Zorya Luhansk for their first ever tilt at the Europa League’s group stage. Dutch Van Persie striker left Old Trafford for the Turkish side in 2015 after netting 48 Premier League goals for the Red Devil and will now return to face his former side, United, as well as Feyenoord - the club where he burst onto the scene. Southampton are the only other Premier League team in the competition and have been pitted alongside Italian giants Inter Milan, Sparta Prague and Hapoel Beer Sheva. More HERE Getty
12:43 Liverpool hopeful over Balotelli exit Liverpool are hopeful of finally loaning out Mario Balotelli with French side Nice keen to take the Italian. The former Manchester City striker was given permission to miss training on Thursday so that he could hold talks with the Ligue 1 team, report the Liverpool Echo. Liverpool have yet to agree a fee with Nice but discussions have taken place between the clubs over a potential deal. John Powell
12:27 Henry joins Belgium Here’s one out of left field. Thierry Henry is joining the Belgian national team as an assistant coach. The Sky Sports pundit had been working as the Arsenal Under-18s while dong his badges, but quit his post after Arsene Wenger told him he had to choose between coaching and punditry. And now Henry will join up with new Belgium manager Roberto Martinez as his “second assistant”. Speaking at a press conference on Friday, Belgium’s executive sports director Chris Van Puyvelde said: “Roberto Martínez’ assistant coach will be Graeme Jones. “Thierry Henry will be the second assistant coach.”
11:52 Barcelona confirm Paco Alcacer interest Some more news from the continent now. This time Barcelona and their summer-long search for a “fourth” striker. That man appears to be Valencia’s Paco Alcacer. Barça sporting director Robert Fernandez said: “We’re very interested in Paco Alcacer, we’re working on it, but we can’t say more. “It’s Paco Alcacer or nobody.” Valencia need to balance the books and it appears will be in sale mode for the remaining days of the window.

11:36 key event Arsenal target Mustafi left out of Valencia squad Get excited Arsenal fans... Shkodran Mustafi has been left out of Valencia’s squad to face Eibar this weekend. Put that alongside Arsene Wenger’s comments this morning and it looks like this one could happen sooner rather than later.
11:26 Chelsea interested in Fiorentina's Alonso Chelsea’s search for defenders has taken them to Italy. But while that may not surprise you too much the defender in question certainly will. The Telegraph are reporting that Antonio Conte is looking at former Bolton and Sunderland left-back Marcos Alonso. Alonso, now at Fiorentina, figures to plug the gap left by several defensive injuries already this season. Chelsea remain keen on centre backs though with Napoli’s Kalidou Koulibaly chief among them.

11:11 City helping Hart find new club Manchester City are doing all they can to find axed keeper Joe Hart a new club, according to sporting director Txiki Begiristain. Hart has been demoted to third-choice at City behind new £17.1million signing Claudio Bravo , who has joined from Barcelona, and Willy Caballero. The England No.1 has until transfer deadline day next Wednesday to find a new club or spend until at least January kicking his heels at City. Begiristain said City were doing all they can to find the England No.1 a new club before transfer deadline day next Wednesday.
“I think we’re going to try to find a good solution for everybody,” said Begiristain. Michael Regan
10:57 Chelsea make offer for Milan's Romagnoli Chelsea are refusing to give up on exciting young AC Milan defender Alessio Romagnoli - but could be forced to pay more than £40million to land him. Milan have confirmed they have rejected another bid from the Blues for the highly-rated centre-back, 21. The offer to the Italian giants, Chelsea ’s second, is understood to be worth £30m with another £4m in bonuses. But Chelsea boss Antonio Conte is determined to bring Romagnoli to Stamford Bridge and the club are equally keen to back him - even if it means scrapping their insistence on not paying over the odds.

10:33 key event Odds slashed on Hart to Sunderland The odds on Joe Hart joining Sunderland have been slashed after David Moyes confirmed that Black Cats goalkeeper Vito Mannone has been ruled out for at least three months. England stopper Hart has been frozen out at Manchester City by Pep Guardiola this season, being restricted to the bench for their opening two Premier League games. City signed Chile goalkeeper Claudio Bravo from Barcelona yesterday and Hart has been told that he can leave the club. After Everton boss Ronald Koeman ruled out a move for the 29-year-old yesterday, bookmakers have cut the odds on Hart moving to the Stadium of Light following the news that the Black Cats’ No.1 will miss at least three months. “Vito has torn ligaments in his elbow and we’re waiting to see whether it will require surgery,” said Moyes. “A minimum of three months.”
10:25 Pardew addresses Zaha's Palace future Crystal Palace boss Alan Pardew has confirmed winger Wilfried Zaha wants to the leave the London club. News broke on Thursday that Spurs had lodged a surprise £15million bid for the Man United flop, but it was rejected the same day by chairman Steve Parish. The Eagles will be reluctant to let another marquee winger exit the club after Yannick Bolasie recently sealed his £25million move to Everton. However, it appears the 23-year-old personally spoke to Pardew after the bid was lodged and requested to leave. Speaking prior to his side’s weekend clash against Bournemouth, Pardew said: “Wilf came to see me and said Spurs were interested and could he go. Chairman has put full stop on that happening.” As well as holding onto Zaha, Pardew confirmed that he still wants to bring in another two or three signings. The Palace boss said: “We’re close with someone at the moment, we’re hoping to get that over the line. We’re looking to bring in two or three more. “My chairman has a history of being busy on deadline day and I’m going to mark him tightly [to get some] ins rather than outs.”
10:21 Palace hit out at Spurs over Zaha approach Crystal Palace chairman Steve Parish says Tottenham’s move to sign Wilfried Zaha is a waste of time after he claimed he rejected a £12million bid for the winger. Parish says he received the bid on Thursday, but immediately knocked back their London rivals. “We had a bid from Spurs but £12m - it’s ridiculous. I can’t imagine that they’re serious,” Parish said on TalkSport. “There’s no chance whatsoever of Wilfried Zaha leaving the club in this transfer window. I can absolutely reassure every Palace fan he is an integral part of our plans. “We’ve told Spurs that there is really no point bidding for him because he is going nowhere - 100 per cent guaranteed.” Getty
10:02 David Anderson Brighton sign Duffy from Blackburn Brighton have signed Shane Duffy from Blackburn in a club record £4million deal. Duffy, 24, has passed his medical and has agreed a three-year deal with Brighton. The move ends Duffy’s two-year stay at Ewood Park since the former Everton trainee made the switch from Goodison Park in 2014. The Irish centre-half has already had an eventful season and he scored two own goals and was sent off in last week’s defeat at Cardiff. He also put through his net in his previous game against Wigan.

09:50 Zaha wants to double wages at Palace Crystal Palace will need to offer Wilfried Zaha a new double-your-money contract to fight off interest from Tottenham Hotspur . The north London club are understood to have communicated their interest in signing Zaha to Palace, but the Eagles remain in a strong negotiating position with four years left on the winger’s contract and are determined not to sell. A reported bid of £15million still falls well short of the south Londoners’ valuation of Zaha, and while there is a hope that will sign on a new deal at Selhurst Park the club will need to increase the salary being talked about in the early stages of negotiations. There has been off-season unrest among the Palace squad, with some players who helped the Eagles to promotion and then consolidation in the Premier League unhappy at what they perceive to be a two-tiered wage structure. This prompted a leak earlier this month that Zaha, Jason Puncheon and James McArthur would be offered new contracts but Spurs’ interest has made the 23-year-old’s case far more urgent. Getty
09:36 key event Liverpool gossip round-up James Rodriguez has begun looking for homes in Turin as speculation linking him with a move to Juventus refuses to go away. The Real Madrid star, who is reportedly wanted by Liverpool, is out of favour at the Bernabeu and Zinedine Zidane is seemingly keen to offload him before the transfer window closes. According to AS, a statement released by real estate agency Proto Group Ltd, which was set up to find houses for footballers and other famous people, said: “The lawyers of James Rodríguez will be in Turin this afternoon to settle the rental of a villa in the Italian city. “During various weeks we have been in charge of finding an adequate house for the player in Turin, and today we’re going to close the agreement.” More HERE Getty
09:19 key event Wenger confirms Arsenal are closing in on signings Where are Arsenal at with deals for Mustafi and Perez? Well Arsene Wenger has answered that very question in his weekly press conference. “We are working on the deals, but we are not close enough to announce today. “Will we sign anyone before the window closes? I’m 99 per cent confident.” Full story HERE Plumb Images
09:09 Palace in for Newcastle's Sissoko Arsene Wenger may be about to land two new signings but another of the Frenchman’s targets, Moussa Sissoko, could end up at Crystal Palace instead. Sissoko impressed Wenger with a series of fine performances at Euro 2016 and is desperate to force an exit from Newcastle following their relegation to the Championship. Despite interest from Liverpool, Real Madrid, Inter Milan, Borussia Dortmund and Arsenal, the Times say his next destination could be Selhurst Park. It is claimed Palace will make their move if they lose Wilfried Zaha to Tottenham. Clive Rose
08:45 Valencia keen on United's Rojo Valencia are lining up a bid for Marcos Rojo, according to reports. The Argentine is not wanted by United boss Jose Mourinho and the Portuguese is hopeful of moving him on before the transfer window closes. It is claimed by Spanish outlet Deporte Valenciano that United will make left-back Rojo available on the cheap, with the club willing to accept just €12million (£10.3million) for the 26-year-old.

08:26 key event Manchester United gossip round-up Manchester United have been told to cough up £25million if they want to sign Fabinho from Monaco, according to reports. L’Equipe, via talkSPORT, claim United have been tracking the 22-year-old right-back all summer but are yet to decide whether to make a bid or not. Fabinho has been dubbed ‘the new Dani Alves’ by French media. It is claimed the Brazilian won’t force a transfer despite United’s standing as one of the biggest clubs in Europe.

08:10 Pochettino talks about Palace's Zaha Maurico Pochettino wants Crystal Palace winger Wilfried Zaha to strengthen his supply line in readiness for Tottenham ‘s return to the Champions League. Zaha, 23 , has made it clear to Eagles boss Alan Pardew that he wants the move and the chance to play in European football’s elite competition with the north Londoners. Spurs were grouped with CSKA Moscow, Bayer Leverkusen and Monaco in Thursday’s draw and Pochettino, who is set to make a £15million bid for Zaha, said: “Yes, I would like a player like this. “We have improved, because now we have two strikers [after signing Vincent Janssen to reduce demands on Harry Kane]. Now I think we need some players in the second line of offence to help the team compete better. “We need more quality in the squad because it will be a very tough season with us with the Champions League and very tough competitions.” Video loading Watch next Watch this video again Watch Next Click to play Tap to play The Live Event you are trying to watch is either unavailable or has not started Please refresh this page in your browser to reload this live event video
07:52 key event Arsenal gossip round-up Arsenal have agreed a £35million fee with Valencia for centre-back Shkodran Mustafi, according to the Guardian. The Gunners are in desperate need of defensive reinforcements, with Per Mertesacker and Gabriel Paulista injured, and Laurent Koscielny struggling with a niggling back issue. Arsene Wenger made Mustafi his number one target weeks ago and a deal now looks set to go through, despite Valencia’s insistence that he wasn’t for sale earlier this month. With the addition of Mustafi and Deportivo striker Lucas Perez, who is expected to join Arsenal for £17million, the Gunners’ summer spending is set to go close to the £100million mark. They’ve already spent a combined £44milion on Granit Xhaka, Rob Holding, Takuma Asano and Kelechi Nwakali. More HERE Getty
07:22 Southampton's Fonte rejects Manchester United Jose Fonte has rejected Manchester United’s call after holding clear-the-air talks with Southampton bosses. Old Trafford chief Jose Mourinho was eager to boost the heart of United’s defence with Portuguese countryman Fonte and was lining up an £8million bid. But after a meeting with the Saints’ director of football Les Reed and chairman Ralph Krueger, Fonte will stay at St Mary’s with a huge pay rise from £45,000 a week to £70,000. Manager Claude Puel said: “The situation of Jose is now finished and he is back to normal. “Jose is now concentrating just on his football and his team. He had a good discussion with the director of football, with the chairman and now everything is all OK. “For Jose it was important for us, for me, to keep him in the squad because he is a good personality, a good professional and has good leadership qualities. “It was important to listen to Jose and understand his position and have time to speak – but now is the time to play and there is no problem with this.” BPI/Getty
06:47 key event Arsenal set to sign Perez Arsene Wenger is set to sign Lucas Perez for £17million — even though he was turned down by Arsenal one month ago. The Gunners have compiled several scouting reports on the Deportivo La Coruna striker and in July they knocked back the chance to sign him. But, with pressure from fans demanding action in the transfer market as Wednesday night’s deadline looms, manager Wenger has gone back in for the 27-year-old after he appeared to be heading for Everton. Perez, who wants to play Champions League football, will have his medical in London on Friday after being offered a four-year contract. Arsenal’s first offer was rejected by Deportivo on Thursday after they tried to pay the modest fee in two instalments, but a subsequent structured bid was accepted. Getty
06:34 key event Friday's gossip round-up Joe Hart could be willing to take a massive pay cut for the chance to move to Liverpool. Hart, on £150k-a-week at Manchester City , has been told he is surplus to requirements at the Etihad and the club’s sporting director is keen for the England keeper to find a club inside the transfer window. Despite Everton boss Ronald Koeman’s lack of interest their Merseyside rivals could be interested as a discount rate, which The Sun believes Hart is willing to accept for the chance to play regular top-flight football.

However, Bam wasn't booked for any crime, and was released on Monday morning.
The 36-year-old star has struggled to come to terms with the tragic death of his co-star and close friend Ryan Dunn, who died in a car crash in 2011.
Getty Pro skateboarders Bam Margera (L) and Ryan Dunn appear on stage to promote the new show "Viva La Bam" during MTV's Total Request Live at the MTV Times Square Studios April 23, 2004 in New York City
Five years ago, Dunn - who was drunk at the time - passed away in a 130mph smash in his Porsche, going over a guardrail and into a tree.
Bam said in the past: "It was the worst phone call I ever got in my life waking up to that."
We have contacted Bam's rep for comment.

Arsene Wenger confirms Lucas Perez and Shkodran Mustafi have passed Arsenal medicals

Arsene Wenger has revealed the two players will sign for Arsenal
Arsene Wenger has confirmed that Lucas Perez and Shkodran Mustafi will sign for Arsenal shortly after completing medicals.
The Frenchman saw his side win their first game of the season at Vicarage Road this afternoon, with Alexis Sanchez starring in a 3-1 romp.
And in a post-match press conference he assured that medical checks were done, as revealed by Mirror Sport on Friday , and that the deals will be closed.
“We have bought two players Mustafi and Perez," he said.
“They’ve both had medicals but we need to complete the paperwork”
Getty Lucas Perez will arrive in a £17million deal
But after labouring to secure the two arrivals, Wenger appeared to rule out anyone else joining the club before Wednesday's transfer deadline.
"They will integrate into the team now and we will help them join squad. We had to work very hard to get signings done but we have not got any plans for anyone else now."
Wenger also claimed Arsenal are still not up to speed and could improve - despite romping past Watford today.
“I believe we shot ourselves in the foot in the first game [against Liverpool] and were under huge pressure.

"We then had two difficult away games but today I believe we had a good solid performance.
“We had a good cushion at half time. At the moment we are not completely there physically and could see that in second half.
“Ozil is not physically there completely but what we want from Ozil is assists and goals and I hope he can get that this season, 10 or 15 goals plus the chances he creates.

Quids in! The amazing football accumulator that saw one punter turn £2 into £12,000
| null | null |
www.mirror.co.uk

Have you ever placed a bet on anything football-related? Have you always been baffled by the fact it didn't pay out? Do you still wonder how anyone ever makes any money from this crazy enterprise?
Then this is the story for you - the story of how one punter's TWENTY-LEG ACCUMULATOR just made him a very rich man.
For those of you unfamiliar with accumulators, the mystery man from Bolton bet £2.20 with Ladbrokes that he could correctly predict the results of 20 different games from around the globe.
Amazingly (for those of us who regularly make a mess of accumulators), he got it spot on… and turned his £2.20 into more than £12,000.
Jammy sod
The mobile wager included teams from England, Spain, Belgium, USA, Netherlands, Portugal, Brazil, Sweden, Poland, Ukraine, Czech Republic, Greece, Russia and Argentina, with odds ranging from 1/33 to 10/11.
The decisive goal that confirmed the Bolton man's five-figure payout came in injury time in Portugal, thanks to Rio Ave defender Rafa Soares scoring only his second career top flight goal to seal victory for his side.
We can safely assume no man in England has ever celebrated a goal for a Portuguese mid-table side as passionately as our mystery punter must have celebrated that strike.
