Victoria Beckham’s eldest son, 22, is currently lapping up.It comes after Brooklyn launched his own online cooking show, entitled Cookin' With Brooklyn, last month.His love of cooking was also demonstrated in front of millions of viewers in the US on James Corden's Late Late Show, where the duo made steak frites together.Fuming about Brooklyn’s decision to pursue cooking after “discovering he enjoyed it during lockdown” in her latest column for The Sun, Ulrika penned: "Admittedly he’s as handsome as the day is long. “He seems cute and his parents clearly worship him."But watching Brooklyn Beckham on The Late Late Show With James Corden in the US cook up a steak and chips with mushy peas because he’d discovered he enjoyed cooking during lockdown tinged me with bitterness.”Ulrika argued: “My thoughts go to friends and colleagues in the hospitality business who are trained chefs and deserved to have a place at the Corden table, rather than rookie Brooklyn.“I’m sure I’m not the only one who had the same thoughts of nepotism and unfair advantage. “It’s little wonder this kind of display engenders jealousy and frustration.” Despite being left irritated by Brooklyn landing TV shows without any proper training as a chef, she acknowledged that being a child of famous parents can be tricky.Ulrika claimed it must be hard for kids who were born into their fame to branch out and forge their own careers without "comparisons being drawn" to their A-List family members.During Corden’s show, the duo chatted while cooking together, before doing an impression of TV chef Gordon Ramsay, 55.Brooklyn also shared his romantic plans to cook his fiancée Nicola Peltz, 27, "whatever she wants" for Valentine's Day.Once their dishes were complete,

Ugo Monye explained to Express.co.uk how he “didn’t realise” that he could connect to dance in such an emotional way until Rose Ayling-Ellis’ Strictly performance with her partner Giovanni Pernice left him in tears.The rugby star, 38, has teamed up with Boots UK for the second series of the health and wellbeing podcast Taboo Talk, where he discusses the topic of chronic pain with host Vogue Williams.Ugo, who was paired up with Oti Mabuse for the latest season of Strictly Come Dancing, has recalled the iconic moment that Rose, 27, and Giovanni, 31, performed a dance that allowed audiences to enter Rose’s world.Rose, who was the show’s first ever deaf contestant, chose to feature a moment of silence during their pair’s performance to Symphony by Clean Bandit and Zara Larsson.Speaking about how “exposing” it can be to reveal your emotions as both a man and an athlete, Ugo admitted that Strictly Come Dancing left a lasting impression on him emotionally.“I knew that doing Strictly could be really exposing - and I don't mean physically, where I had my top off in a couple of the dances and dressed like Pink Panther and stuff like that,” he began.“But I remember going to the final, where I was sitting with Oti, and when I watched Rose dance - she had that kind of stop-traffic moment, iconic dance - I was crying. “I was crying watching it live and I'd seen it before,” Ugo confirmed.“I remember saying to Oti at the time, and to a few of my friends, that I didn't realise that dance can have an impact in the way in which it did on me that night. “So what I took from it was: it's really important to try different things that you know might not be familiar or might be out of your comfort zone, because you just don't know how they'll

Times Radio to talk about the Online Safety Bill, Dorries was asked about Jimmy Carr’s “disgusting” joke about the holocaust, where he refers to the death of thousands of travellers killed by the Nazis as a “positive”.Dorries explained that changes to the Online Safety Bill, which will make online harassment and abuse a criminal offence carrying jail sentences of up to five years, wouldn’t cover Carr’s comments because it doesn’t cover On-Demand services like Netflix because they are “separately carved out of this bill.”She went on to add that “we are looking at a future bill coming forward soon, looking at measures to bring into scope organisations like Netflix because what Jimmy Carr said was both shocking and abhorrent and unacceptable.”Nadine Dorries says a bill to regulate video on demand platforms will follow the online safety bill "very shortly".The culture secretary gave her reaction to comments made about the Holocaust by Jimmy Carr on his Netflix special.@jennykleeman | @lukejones03 | @NadineDorries pic.twitter.com/TF1qzPCw3O— Times Radio (@TimesRadio) February 5, 2022She then added: ‘We don’t have the ability now, legally, to hold Netflix to account for streaming that but very shortly we will.”In a separate interview with Sky News, Dorries said that the proposed Media Bill would look to “make the kind of comments that Jimmy Carr made, subject to a new law which would impose sanctions on those organisations.”In 2017, Dorries tweeted that “left-wing snowflakes are killing comedy”. Speaking on BBC Breakfast, she responded that “What Jimmy Carr did last night is not comedy.

Bigfoot dung in the woods can be easily confused as belonging to a bear or even a human, claims an experienced hunter.If tracking the elusive giant was easy then we would probably have far more evidence of its existence but that has not stopped cryptoid enthusiasts going looking for it.Beasts of the World: Hairy Humanoids author Andy McGrath has devised a list of tell tale signs that the primarily nocturnal and solitary Bigfoot is close by.Andy told the Daily Star that despite the secretive creatures being naturally inquisitive animals attracted to human activity, they prefer to keep their distance. That is unless we are intruding on bigfoot territory, in which case they will throw rocks, sticks and even howl to intimidate ramblers, Andy says.

Elon Musk's Starlink satellite internet service has a bizarre clause in its warranty that means it's not protected against damage from solar storms and dinosaurs.The “dinosaur clause" from the billionaire's aerospace and communications corporation SpaceX, was brought to public attention by a Reddit user with a partial image of a leaflet.The document reads: "The warranty does not cover damage due to: lightning, electrical surges, fires, floods, hail, windstorms, earthquakes, meteors, solar storms, dinosaurs or other forces of nature."This revelation produced a wave of amused responses from other forum users, as they wondered if the terms of service "still include recognition of the right to the independent government for any Martian colony as a condition for service".One user said: "Ah a warning for those installing it at Jurassic Park."Another quipped: "Birds are avian dinosaurs. Maybe this is their way of explicitly saying that damage caused by birds voids the warranty?“Would hold up in biology court, but not sure about the regular court."A third said: "Well, s***.
