Oti Mabuse has announced she is leaving Strictly Come Dancing after seven years.

KELVIN Fletcher and his family were forced to sit in their car last night after a huge power cut at their home. The actor, pregnant wife Liz and their young children Milo and Marnie kept warm on their driveway while they waited for the outage to end so that they could watch the final episode of their BBC show Kelvin's Big Farming Adventure.

Jeremy Clarkson, 61, admitting watching him struggle to learn the ropes of being a farmer on his Amazon Prime show Clarkson's Farm, resonated rather close to home. It comes as his new ten-part BBC2 series Tales from a Kitchen Garden, follows him as he gets to grips with growing produce and raising livestock; something he too, has a lot to learn about."This series isn’t just a cookery show.

Oti Mabuse, 31, has found herself at the centre of controversy following the latest instalment of Dancing On Ice on Sunday.The judge looked phenomenal in a plunging gown in yellow that she paired with a large aquamarine necklace and matching earrings.However, some viewers did not seem too impressed as they took to Twitter to voice their opinion on the show-stopping gown.Some branded the dress inappropriate, while others accused the TV star of putting too much cleavage on display.Karen M Renton said: “Oti's dress is obscene. Put them away love.“It's a family show #DancingOnIce.”Sammyj1966 agreed: “It is a bit ‘in your face’ isn’t it?”Londoner49 penned: “She is lovely  but that dress is totally inappropriate.

Jeremy Clarkson, 61, admitted he still hasn't got round to dealing with the repercussions of the 2021 London flash floods, after his west London block was "deluged". After discussing the on-going cladding issues on some of the capital's high-rise flats, he went on to highlight this big issue; a conversation perhaps triggered by the severe weather that recently hit the UK this past week.On 12 July 2021, nearly 76mm of rain fell in 90 minutes in parts of London, which resulted in flash floods.Jeremy was among those affected by the water devastation, writing: "Like many others in west London our block was deluged with a Noah-sized tidal wave that swept into the groundfloor flats and the lift shaft, putting it out of action for weeks."And now the insurance companies are saying that even though we pay them £80,000 a year, we are not covered for flood damage anymore."I haven't worked out quite what to do about this yet.

Jeremy Clarkson wants people to email Housing Secretary Michael Gove with his ‘clever’ solution to the issue of insuring buildings with cladding, stating he ‘knows just how to fix it’. Writing in the Times, the former Top Gear presenter explained that he owns a flat that has ‘safe’ cladding, and that he has a novel answer to the problem. The 61-year-old revealed that the annual cost of insuring cladding has jumped ‘from £6,000 a year to a staggering £80,000.’He then explained how it would seem sensible to remove the cladding from the building – but there is no financial help from the government or developers because ‘everyone agrees the cladding we have isn’t dangerous.’ ‘We can’t afford to leave the cladding in place and we can’t afford to remove it,’ he wrote.

ITV I'm A Celebrity Get Me Out Of Here has a "number one target" for 2022, according to reports. Ant McPartlin and Declan Donnelly have already hinted they want to return to Australia with the show. Bosses have reportedly identified Danny Dyer as their top target for the camp.

Jeremy Clarkson has shared new insight into life on his Oxfordshire farm as he admitted he was worried about performing one of the tasks.The former Top Gear presenter shared how Kaleb Cooper, who stars with him on Clarkson’s Farm, then had to step in.Writing in his latest column, Jeremy shared what had happened at Diddly Squat farm.He was lamenting over the things he has to do in order to meet government guidelines over owning cows.The broadcaster explained how one of the laborious tasks is tagging the newly born calves.Jeremy said the process involves wrangling the young cows into position to try and tag their ears.Writing in today’s Sunday Times, he explained how he had to rely on his colleague Kaleb to help him.He admitted there is “some televisual evidence to suggest it was Kaleb” who was successful in wrangling the calves, who are “pure muscle”.But after this, Jeremy said the actual process was “terrifying” as he was worried about injuring himself and Kaleb.He penned: “This is really hard to do because the calf's head is very much a moving target.“It's like shooting at an epileptic elephant shrew.“Terrified I'd attach the tag to the poor thing's eyelid or forehead or, worse, Kaleb's penis, I was not speedy.”After a “few hours”, Jeremy admitted he was finally successful in what he called a “wonderful moment”.The presenter is currently filming the second series of his wildly popular Clarkson’s Farm with Kaleb.The latter became an unlikely star when the first series was released back in 2021.Across eight episodes, fans delighted in his no-nonsense responses to Jeremy’s farming mishaps.The outspoken host of The Grand Tour was also the victim of a prank orchestrated on Ant & Dec’s Saturday Night Takeaway.Airing last

You're not a police officer, we're not protesters!," with Dec adding: "Because he's on Ant and Dec's Saturday Night Takeaway."As the scene was shown on air, Jeremy was seen watching it in the background - and he looked

Jeremy Clarkson, 61, was left heartbroken when his favourite London restaurant suddenly went into administration. He found out that The Wolseley in Mayfair, which is run by Jeremy King, is still open for business for now because the administration was "somehow technical".In his column for The Times, The Grand Tour host admitted the news shocked him to the core.He penned: "'Noooooo!' I wailed, while sinking to my knees and throwing my head back in anguish."London without the Wolseley would be like Sydney without the opera house or Cindy Crawford without that mole.
