Richard Madeley, one half of presenting duo Richard and Judy, has admitted that he thinks his father was sexually abused during his time at boarding school as a teenager, which led him to hit Richard as a child.The 65-year-old Good Morning Britain presenter said that his father, Christopher Holt Madeley, was “broken”, “f***ed up” and used to hit young Richard “five or six times a year” with a bamboo stick.He opened up about his dad's abusive nature to The Sunday Times Magazine: “That went on until I was about nine or 10 and he went a bit too far.“He hit me too many times and my mother had a word and that was that. I just want to put that in context - I didn’t feel it was out of the ordinary, other boys got hit by their parents, but I didn’t like it.”Richard went on to say that he “wished it hadn’t happened” and explained that his father’s actions were a result of his upbringing throughout boarding school.The ITV presenter revealed a dark secret which he believes is the root of his dad’s behaviour, which began in his childhood.He said that Christopher was a “very happy farmer’s boy” until his parents discovered that he had a girlfriend, which they “thought was the road to perdition”, a Christian ideology that someone is doomed for an eternal state or punishment and damnation.After the suspicions aroused, Richard’s grandparents “packed his father off to a ghastly place”, where he was “considered an outsider” because the “rest of the boys would have known one another since prep school”.Richard said that the time his father spent at boarding school “f***ed him up” and made him “very unhappy” as he had been “betrayed by his parents”.“I have a strong suspicion he was sexually abused in some way.

It was another heartbreaking night of darts for Michael Smith as he lost his eighth consecutive final, this time to Danny Noppert in the UK Open.The match came down to a deciding leg, and all Smith had to do was hold his throw to end his cruel losing run and win his first major tournament.However, Smith went on to lose his eighth final in a row, just months after he lost the World Championship at the last hurdle to Peter Wright.And the 'Bully Boy' has branded himself as "garbage" after losing his cool right when it mattered most, which has been the tale of his career so far.After beating Gerwyn Price in the quarter-final, Smith was the heavy favourite to go on and finally win his first major, but Noppert held his own and took his opportunity when it was presented to him.But Smith only had himself to blame, as he said following his 11-10 defeat: "I was absolute garbage. I could have walked away with that 11-3.

Manchester United flop Memphis Depay stunned viewers by scoring one of “the most unstoppable penalties ever" on Sunday.Barcelona came from a goal down to scrape a 2-1 win against Elche, with their first being an instinctive close-range finish in the second-half by new signing Ferran Torres.Depay, 28, was brought on as a substitute as Barcelona tried to make the pressure pay, and the Dutchman was awarded a penalty for a handball by an Elche defender with less than 10 minutes remaining.And with the game on the line, the forward made no mistake from 12-yards as he nonchalantly thundered the ball into the net.Depay took just a few steps in his run-up but generated obscene power with his strike.He fired the ball with ferocity into the inside top-right-hand corner of the net so that even two goalkeepers wouldn’t have reached it.Is Depay's penalty the best you have seen this season? Let us know in the comments section.And the Catalan side’s fans took to Twitter to voice their appreciation for the ice-cold finish.One fan wrote: "One of the coldest penalties I've seen."Another tweeted: “Depay literally took an unsavable penalty…”A third wrote: “Absolute top bins.”Want to be on the ball with all of the latest football news?Well then sign up for the brilliant Daily Star football email newsletter!From the latest transfer news to the agenda-setting stories, get it all in your email inbox - don't miss a thing.It only takes a matter of seconds.Simply type your email address into the box at the top of this article and hit 'subscribe'.And that's it, job done.
