Nick Vivarelli International Correspondent British director Joe Wright, who helmed Winston Churchill drama “Darkest Hour” – which earned Gary Oldman an Oscar for his portrayal as the British prime minister – is set to change historical sides and direct TV drama “M,” which chronicles Benito Mussolini’s rise to power.

dog's shortened muzzle, folded skin and squat body causing breathing, eye and skin conditions.Currently the breed, which is synonymous with Britishness and Winston Churchill, only lives to an average age of eight with the study recommending that people "stop and think" before buying them.Bulldogs were found to be 38 times more likely than other dogs to get dermatitis in skin folds, nearly 27 times more likely to get an eye condition called cherry eye, over 24 times more likely to have a jutting lower jaw and ran nearly 20 times the risk of obstructive airways causing breathing problems.Other conditions that are more commonly seen in bulldogs include having a cyst between the toes (13 times more likely), dry eye (12 times), inward eyelids (11.5 times), mange (eight times), foot infections (five times) and a skin infection, wet dermatitis and dermatitis (three times).Originally developed as an athletic and muscular dog for bull-fighting, it is now bred as a show and companion animal with a short skull, protruding jaw, skin folds, and squat, heavy build.The Netherlands and Norway have already restricted the breeding of English Bulldogs in recent years.Study author Dr Dan O'Neill said: “Every dog deserves to be born with equal and good innate health by having a natural ability to breathe freely, blink fully, exercise easily, have healthy flat skin, mate and give birth.

2-0 victory over Germany at Euro 2020 that England fans could stop harking back to memories of Munich in 2001 for a pick-me-up.The Three Lions' emphatic 5-1 victory that day stunned everybody, not least England's fans who'd seen their side beaten by the Germans a whopping 11 times since '66, and such was the shock inside the Olympic Stadium that the father of Germany boss Rudi Voller had a heart attack at half-time.For those perhaps too young (or too drunk at the time) to remember, Carsten Jancker had given Germany the lead inside five minutes, but what followed was one of the most uncharacteristically brilliant fightbacks in English football history.Michael Owen bagged a hattrick, Steven Gerrard blasted one in from long-range and Emile Heskey completed the rout late on as England steamrolled over their greatest rivals, less than a year after being sunk by Germany during the last match ever at the old Wembley.England manager Sven-Goran Eriksson - who had only been in the job a few months - was suddenly being pedestalled alongside Winston Churchill and Admiral Nelson with fans immediately convinced of victory at the following year's World Cup - not that they ever need much encouragement.Which was better - England 2-0 Germany at Euro 2020, or Germany 1-5 England in 2001? Let us know what you think in the comments section.Meanwhile, morale inside Germany's dressing room plunged to an all-time low and legendary goalkeeper Oliver Khan later admitted he feared the despairing squad wouldn't be able to bounce back before Japan and South Korea.How typically German of them to then go and reach the World Cup final while England were knocked out in the quarters.
