Derry Girls season three has been revealed alongside its spring release date.In the clip, friends Erin (Saoirse-Monica Jackson), Clare (Nicola Coughlan), Michelle (Jamie-Lee O’Donnell) and James (Dylan Llewellyn) are seen visiting a video rental shop when they discover that Dennis (Paul Mallon), their aggressive local corner shop proprietor, is also working at the store.Dennis is irked when Clare asks him for a film recommendation, to which he says “no”, and then takes issue with her saying that the gang will just keep “reading” around for ideas of what to rent.“Bit of a read? This isn’t a fucking library, girls,” Dennis responds before screaming to them all to “Get out!” when it’s put to him by James that the shop is actually a “video library”.The scene previews the new series of the Channel 4/All 4 comedy series, which will return to screens on April 12.A press release shared with the first trailer released earlier this month reads: “While series one observed the gang navigating their teens in 1990’s Derry against a backdrop of The Troubles, series two charted them navigating their parents, parties, love interests and school against the backdrop of a precarious peace process.“In series three, which is coming soon to Channel 4 and All 4, viewers will see that while Northern Ireland is growing up this gang of eejits certainly aren’t anytime soon – while there’s hope in the air that The Troubles may finally be over their troubles are only just getting started as they get ever closer to ‘adulthood’.” Meanwhile, Derry Girls creator Lisa McGee has responded to a recent reference to the hit sitcom in The Simpsons.Earlier in March, a Twitter account called Wikisimpsons asked The Simpsons producer Matt Selman whether the

Brexit – began in Wales next week despite numerous objections.Commissioned in 2018 by then-UK Prime Minister Theresa May, the event was described as a showcase for the nation’s “unique strengths in creativity and innovation” after leaving the EU – with comparisons being made to the 1951 Festival Of Britain.While critics have consistently questioned the hefty estimated £120millon cost of the festival, planning took a step forward in 2020 when organisers called for “daring, new and popular” ideas that would unite the UK.Last October, the Festival Of Brexit rebranded as Unboxed and outlined details of its 2022 inaugural edition.As BBC News reports, the festival kicked off at Caernarfon Castle in Gwynedd, Wales yesterday (March 30). Its first event, ‘About Us’, saw live music being performed outside the castle while various artworks were projected onto its walls.Sam Hunt, Unboxed’s programme director, said the event highlights the “ambition” of creative people from across the UK.

Beach Boys co-founder Brian Wilson, has sued the musician over a deal he recently struck for the royalties of a number of Beach Boys songs.Wilson agreed a reported $50million (£38.1million) deal with Universal Music Publishing Group in relation to his songs catalogue back in December, though the deal was not announced at the time.Wilson-Rutherford, who was married to Wilson from 1964 to 1978, first sued Wilson over the matter in February at Los Angeles Superior Court, and the case was moved to federal court last Friday (March 25).Wilson-Rutherford is alleging that she is owed at least $6.7million (£5.1million) from the song rights that were sold to Universal last year, and has requested a full account of the royalties she claims Wilson owes her from the past seven years (via Reuters).Wilson and Wilson-Rutherford’s 1981 divorce settlement saw the latter take a 50 per cent ownership of Wilson’s songwriting royalties from the 170 compositions the Beach Boys musician wrote during their marriage, including ‘California Girls’, ‘Wouldn’t It Be Nice’ and ‘Good Vibrations’.While Wilson-Rutherford was paid about $11million (£8.3million) from the writer’s share as a result of Wilson’s recent deal with Universal, she is now seeking the aforementioned $6.7million following the sale of his “reversion rights” – referring to US copyright law where artists can reclaim the rights to their songs 35 years after transferring them away – to the publisher.Her lawsuit adds that Wilson initially offered her $3.3million “to tie off all issues” between the ex-couple (via Rolling Stone), but Wilson-Rutherford then took legal action in February and alleged that she was owed twice as much.While they don’t dispute Wilson-Rutherford’s rights to the

Architects have voiced their support for the Music Venue Trust and Music Declares Emergency’s campaign for music fans to #GoLocal during next month’s Earth Day.The two organisations are asking people to #GoLocal on April 22 by attending a gig in their hometown, and to either walk, cycle or use public transport to go to and from music venues.A survey conducted by the MVT in 2020 found that only 35.2 per cent of punters usually walk to a gig, with the majority (48 per cent) typically travelling to shows in their own car.“When you #GoLocal you are considerably improving the impact you make as an individual on the environmental damage caused by vehicles,” the organisations said in a joint statement.“You are also supporting the cultural development of your town, the development of your local artists and your local venue.”A post shared by Music Venue Trust (@musicvenuetrust)Architects frontman Sam Carter, who is also an ambassador for the marine conservation charity Sea Shepherd, has backed the campaign.“This Earth Day I would like to encourage you to #GoLocal to see some live music, and when you do, why not take a nice walk or cycle to get there instead of a taxi or driving,” he said in a statement. “That way you’re helping the environment, and also you’re helping yourself and your body! If you’re not able to do that, how about taking some form of public transport to lower your footprint?“By going local like this, you are doing your bit for local venues and the environment.”You can find out more information about the Music Venue Trust here and Music Declares Emergency here.

TikTok to inform people about the little-known function.She showcased the dental tool for her viewers, before asking: "Do you ever wonder why your toothbrush has different colours?"There's a reason for that. The smallest of the colours — usually near the top, is to show you how much toothpaste you actually should be using."You're actually not supposed to put the toothpaste all along the brush."Jess then points out the dark blue section of her toothbrush and says: "You should do use about a pea-size amount of toothpaste on the dark blue section here."She added that children's toothbrushes have a similar feature – but the colour patch might be in at the centre rather than at the top of the brush.The TikToker said: "Here's a toddler toothbrush and you can see the blue in the middle shows you exactly how much toothpaste to measure out."Viewers were shocked when they learned about the hack.One said: "Well then, my life is a lie and I don't know how to do anything."

Almost half of Brits worry their home smells due to pets, smoke, or dirty drains – with many refusing to host guests as a result.A study of 2,000 adults found three-quarters believe the way a person’s home smells leaves a long-lasting impression on those that visit – and two in five will do anything to ensure it has a good scent.The average adult spends £121 per year on items to improve their home’s aroma – from vacuum scent bags to lemons and onions, and even bread-scented candles.The research, commissioned by Scentsy, found when having company over, half said their homes must smell better beforehand, and 22% hold off having guests over at all if their abode isn’t up to scratch.The worst smells that can stop people from hosting include smoke (40%), pets (40%), and sink water (39%).While others hate the smell of burnt cooking (37%) and even kids (14%).Instead, people would prefer to be greeted with something floral (55%), sweet (25%), or savoury (13%) when visiting someone’s home.But one in four (26%) don’t really care about other people’s properties, while 64% will continue hosting regardless of the state of their own pad.However, two-thirds (65%) admit they judge others by how clean their homes are.Overall, 45% love how their own home smells, and 47% are used to the familiar aroma as they walk in the door.A spokesman for Scentsy said: “Fragrance is processed in the brain’s olfactory bulb, which is why it’s so closely tied to memory.“Senses like touch, vision and auditory stimulus are processed through a completely different part of the brain.

World Cup draw in 1982. FIFA intended to revolutionise both the competition and the draw itself for the tournament held in Spain, expanding the format from 16 nations to 24.What is now known as one of the most farcical draws of all time began with the governing body opting to ditch the old ‘names in a hat’ format in favour of special cages containing little footballs, each containing a qualifier.
