David Dimbleby reveals why he’s investigating the monarchy as royal institution must “adapt or die”

I’ve always wondered about the British monarchy and its place in public life. My father, Richard Dimbleby, famously commentated on the Queen’s coronation in 1953, and he was a strong supporter of both the Queen and the monarchy itself. He believed it represented “the enduring strength of Britain and the wonder and envy of a large part of the world.” His conviction stemmed from his belief that the monarchy helped to hold Britain together, especially given the hardship and disorder he’d seen as a war reporter during World War II.

Ethereum: Whale Buying or Just a Hopeless Case? 🤔

The so-called analysts, those seers of the digital age, are muttering darkly about bulls losing their grip and even hinting at a potential bear market. A bear market! As if we haven’t enough to worry about. Ethereum currently trades a rather ignominious 40% below its August zenith, and every upward twitch is greeted with the suspicion it deserves. The overall atmosphere remains… unsettled, to put it kindly. Honestly, it’s all rather tiresome.

Original Harry Potter Stars Describe Smelly Set

James and Oliver Phelps, famous for playing Fred and George Weasley in the Harry Potter films, recently revisited the original movie set after more than 20 years. They were surprised to find it had a really strong, unpleasant smell. Now, the brothers host Harry Potter: Wizards of Baking on the Food Network, and they agree the show’s kitchen smells much better than the old film set!

All 14 Members of The Seven in The Boys Before Season 5, Ranked by Power

Like the teams in Marvel’s Avengers or DC’s Justice League, ‘The Seven’ is a group of superheroes with different powers, led by the artificially created Homelander (Antony Starr). However, their heroic acts are often fake – everything is planned and staged. This frequently leads to real problems when they try to handle genuine crises. A group called ‘The Boys,’ led by Billy Butcher (Karl Urban), actively opposes The Seven, causing frequent changes within the team as they’ve managed to take out or discredit several members. Over time, a total of 14 different super-powered individuals have been part of The Seven, though some are much stronger than others.

The Justice League Has Ruined the Relationship Between Superman and Luthor (and Now the World May Pay)

As a huge Superman fan, I was really invested in the unlikely partnership between Superman and Lex Luthor over the last few years. It started as a really tense, calculated alliance, but after Lex lost his memory, they genuinely seemed to become friends! It was amazing, but sadly, it didn’t last – Lex eventually remembered everything and left, though he did leave Superman in charge of LexCorp. It wasn’t a full-blown rivalry after that, just… complicated. But everything changed with DC K.O. The Justice League’s attempt to keep villains out of the King Omega Tournament completely ruined their relationship, and DC K.O. #2 pretty much showed it falling apart. It’s honestly heartbreaking, because seeing them work together was one of the best things about Superman lately.

5 Upcoming Fantasy Shows That Could Be Masterpieces

Following the success of Game of Thrones, new fantasy shows have had varying degrees of success. While The Wheel of Time and The Rings of Power look impressive, they’ve also sparked a lot of debate. Shows like His Dark Materials and Interview With the Vampire are critically acclaimed but haven’t reached widespread popularity. Plus, many streaming series are unfortunately canceled too soon. However, some upcoming shows have the potential to really stand out, offering excellent stories and gaining a large fanbase.

My Hero Academia Should Follow Jujutsu Kaisen’s Lead With a Sequel Manga

With the manga now finished, fans were eagerly anticipating the anime’s conclusion, and its ending is sure to be bittersweet for long-time viewers. Although a new season of My Hero Academia: Vigilantes is planned for January 2026, it’s not quite the same as an original story from Horikoshi. Jujutsu Kaisen fans, however, got a special treat this September when Akutami unexpectedly returned with new content.

Weapons’ Amy Madigan Reacts To Aunt Gladys Becoming A Gay Icon (And She Deserves It)

The movie Weapons was both a commercial and critical success, appealing to a wide audience. Many LGBTQ+ horror fans, including myself, have long appreciated the genre, and often connect with its iconic villains. Actress Madigan recently discussed this connection on The Hollywood Reporter’s Awards Chatter podcast, explaining how queer audiences have responded to her character, Gladys.
