A Surrey pilot who became the youngest person to fly a Concorde says he is still fascinated by the supersonic plane, 50 years after its first commercial flight. Concorde first flew passengers from London Heathrow on 21 January 1976 and ran for nearly 30 years before retiring in 2003. Mike Bannister, who flew Concorde's last commercial journey, said that while it was sad that the plane had to be retired, he was excited for the next generation of supersonic travel. Bannister, from Staines, said: "It's fascinating to think that Concorde was designed in the late 1950s and early 1960s and there's still nothing that can do all the things it could all that time ago."

Sophie Turner as Zara in Prime Video’s “Steal.” (Samuel Dore / Prime Video)“We’re so often not allowed to go off the rails,” she says. “I don’t know why other people don’t like it. “It’s nice to have little secrets about the character that the audience doesn’t know and the directors don’t know,” Turner says. “But I don’t know if playing characters trying to find their way in the world necessarily helps me find my way,” she says.

Donald Trump has doubled down on his threats to annex Greenland, saying only the US could secure the Arctic territory, but ruled out using force. The US president said he wanted “immediate negotiations” to “discuss the acquisition” of the mineral-rich Arctic island, claiming “this would not be a threat to Nato” but would instead “enhance” the alliance’s security. Earlier, Sir Keir Starmer said he would “not yield” in his stance over Greenland in the face of Mr Trump’s demands. I don’t have to use force, I don’t want to use force, I won’t use force.”He launched fresh attacks on European allies by calling Denmark, to which Greenland belongs, “ungrateful” after the US’s “stupid” post-Second World War decision to “give Greenland back to Denmark”. The Prime Minister reiterated his position that “the future of Greenland is for the people of Greenland and the Kingdom of Denmark alone” and that “threats of tariffs to pressurise allies are completely wrong”.

“These guys are going to go for a cap no matter what it takes,” the source said. I think we all knew that owners were going to propose some sort of salary cap to players.

It’s worth reading the New York Times article I linked in that quote, which lays out details of what MLB owners were proposing at the time. There is absolutely no question that MLB owners will lock out players when the CBA expires on Dec. 1.

Wunmi Mosaku is missing Greggs. Her performance as Annie, a Hoodoo priestess in Ryan Coogler’s vampire thriller Sinners, has made her an outside bet for a Best Supporting Actress Oscar. Despite her success, Mosaku remains candid about the hurdles she faced in the UK. “Teachers make you either bloom or shrivel away.”It was director Ryan Coogler who finally gave her the space to bloom. While preparing for Sinners, Mosaku delved into Hoodoo and her own Yoruba roots, a culture she felt she had to suppress to “fit in” while growing up in Manchester.

A Royal Borough board has approved a 10-year health and wellbeing strategy which looks to support those living in ‘pockets of deprivation’ across Windsor and Maidenhead. The health and wellbeing strategy was put together in collaboration between the Royal Borough, the NHS and partners in the community and voluntary sector.
