It took numerous questions from Sky News presenter Sophy Ridge, but eventually Nigel Farage admitted that the terror attack at Westminster last week, was not due to immigration. After the attack, last week, he told a right-wing news presenter “An American audience seeing this horrendous thing happening in Westminster should start to say to itself that when Donald Trump tries to put in place vetting measures, he is doing it to protect your country. “Frankly, if you open your door to...

This shocking video captures the dangers of driving on Britain's motorways. Even with an increase in safety measures in cars, crashes are still part of daily life. In this video, despite being shunted from behind by a van - and then aiding the other stricken driver in his overturned car - Christopher Dye was charged after allegedly remonstrating with the man who caused the accident. The three-vehicle accident occurred on May 12 last year, on the M62 near junction 22....

There are many things one should say about The Eyes of My Mother, director Nicolas Pesce’s dark & disturbing debut feature, but it’s perhaps best to begin by declaring that this is not a film for the faint of heart. Indeed, even those with an unyielding tolerance for visual horror may find themselves squirming in their seats at times whilst watching this maliciously macabre, yet utterly mesmeric monochrome nightmare. If Hitchcock’s Psycho was to reimagined in a contemporary age, it...

The author Agatha Christie once described a mother’s love as being like “nothing else in the world. It knows no law, no pity, it dates all things and crushes down remorselessly all that stands in its path.” Few other quotes so sincerely encapsulate the everlasting power that stems from the maternal connection shared between a mother and her child, but in cinema, such profound renderings are more prevalent. From children’s classics such as Disney’s Bambi, through to the more mature...

PDSA vets have saved a cat shot with an airgun pellet, causing extensive injuries. Four-year-old tabby Obee needed his leg amputating following the deliberate assault.  Obee’s owners, Brian and Faith Gittins, from North Tyneside, became concerned when their beloved pet didn’t return after an evening walk as normal one Saturday evening. Brian said: “He usually comes when we call him from the door, but there was no sign of him. He was missing for hours and we were getting really...

Nail-biting footage shows a daredevil reveller sliding down the slippery roof of a 70ft building - while his mates egg him on. The 'drunk' lad, thought to be in his twenties, is seen navigating the five-storey block of flats after apparently being 'dared' to touch a window. After scaling the roof terrace barrier, the youngster - who has nothing but a flimsy wire fence to steady himself - sits and slides to the bottom of the slope. The panic-inducing clip...

We’ve recently reported on the monumental increase in popularity of gin within recent years, yet this modern-day gin renaissance is showing absolutely no sign of impeding. London dry is, undeniably, at the forefront of gin’s current popularity, though a number of different styles have received attention – including sweeter Plymouth gin, plus the revival of Old Tom. Pink gin is another trendy tipple, originally created by members of the Royal Navy in the mid-19th century to cure sea sickness, combining...

Regardless of the fact that Jamie Oliver was instrumental in making my generation’s school dinner’s inexplicably bleak, I’ve always respected the chef’s devil-may-care approach to cooking. Still, I’d trade all of the champagne and caviar in the world for just one last turkey Twizzler, no matter how disgusting they really were, on reflection. When he The Naked Chef was first broadcast, almost 20 years ago, I was too young to understand the appeal. But when I first began to cook...

By Michael McNulty You’re in the mood for something like Turner and Hooch or maybe K-9. But it’s Forgotten Film Friday so let’s flip the switch and unearth a film that’s wholly different, here’s this Friday’s film. White Dog initially found life in 1968 as a story in Life magazine, written by Romain Gary. Gary developed it into a novel which was published in 1970. It was later adapted for the screen with Roman Polanski attached to direct, before Samuel...
