Update 21/05/24: As confirmed on the latest edition of Richard Osman and Marina Hyde’s The Rest is Entertainment podcast, the latest cast member to be confirmed is Celia Imrie in the role of Joyce Meadowcroft. Joyce would love that, we feel.
As previously reported by Variety in April 2024, Dame Helen Mirren, Sir Ben Kingsley and Pierce Brosnan are also attached to The Thursday Murder Club film adaptation, which is being directed by Harry Potter and the Philosopher’s Stone director Chris Columbus. Mirren will of course play former spy Elizabeth, Kingsley will play psychiatrist Ibrahim, and in something of a casting curveball, Pierce Brosnan will play former union organiser Ron. That just leaves police officers Donna and Chris, and handyman/fixer Bogdan as main characters still to be announced.

Prince Harry’s bachelor party wasn’t without fun and…some fear. In Spare, the Duke of Sussex recalled how he’d been afraid of what his brother, Prince William, might do. Not, perhaps, over imbibe. (One of the Prince of Wales’s nicknames is One Pint Willy.) Rather, change Harry’s appearance ahead of his 2018 royal wedding to Meghan Markle by shaving off his beard.
Harry worried William would shave off his beard at his 2018 bachelor party
In addition to the many bombshells in Spare, Harry also gave an inside look at his and the Duchess of Sussex’s royal wedding. On May 19, 2018, the two wed at St. George’s Chapel inside the walls of Windsor Castle.
As Harry revealed, the tension went well beyond the bridesmaids’ dresses, Meghan’s tiara, and her father’s absence from the ceremony. Somehow, his beard became embroiled in the wedding drama.

Okay, here we go again. The Meghan Markle bashing train continues, and this time, she’s being criticized for not uttering a word about King Charles and Princess Kate during her and husband Prince Harry’s recent tour of Nigeria.
Something tells me she’d have been bashed as well even if she did mention them. Hmm.
Meghan Markle Slammed For Not Throwing In A Good Word For King Charles and Princess Kate Amid Their Cancer Treatments
At this point, if anybody asked my opinion, I’d say it’s better for the Royal Family and the Sussexes to do their own things until they can find peace, if that can happen.
But Daily Mail columnist Maureen Callahan apparently does not see it that way. According to her, the Duchess ought to have said something about her father-in-law and sister-in-law, who are both currently receiving treatments for cancer.

Women constantly face the stigma of having their looks and personalities used to determine their capabilities. A girl’s life choices should be up to her, not the biases and demands of those around her. In a time where phrases like, “girl boss” and, “good for her” movies have become entwined in our cultural lexicon, ‘Legally Blonde’, a film released back in 2001, remains a beloved classic of female empowerment. ‘Legally Blonde’s Elle Woods (Reese Witherspoon) is surrounded by people who don’t take her at all seriously and instead perceive her as a beautiful, dumb, blonde. Conversely, Vivian Kensington (Selma Blair), Elle’s brunette and less blatantly feminine classmate is viewed as smart, respectable, and less attractive. Through these characters, the film emphasizes the absurdity of allowing a woman’s appearance to dictate our perception of her intelligence and value.

“I should get a few ribs taken out, because I’ll be in a corset for the rest of my life.”
Helena Bonham Carter – make that Dame Helena Bonham Carter – has worn her share of waist-cinching lingerie in independent period pieces since breaking out in the mid-‘80s as Lucy Honeychurch in “A Room with a View” and as the title royal in “Lady Jane.”
The twice-Oscar-nominated actress is blessed with an English rose complexion, a cheeky sense of humor and no filter when she speaks her mind, which has served her well especially while voicing characters in such animated films as “Wallace & Gromit: The Curse of the Were-Rabbit” and “Corpse Bride,” one of seven films she has starred in that were directed by her former partner and father of her two children, Tim Burton.

Prince Harry is reportedly losing his last few ties to the Royal Family as the Monarchy reshuffles and upgrades its roles to fit into what the UK’s modern landscape demands. The reshuffling saw the King drop 74 charities, only to take up 300 others.
Perhaps the one that’s turning out to be a big blow to Prince Harry is the part where big brother William will be bestowed with a new honor and he was neglected. See what a royal expert has to say about Harry’s reaction to the latest development.

The founder of a U.K. charity, to which Hugh Grant is famously a major donor after contributing around 75,000 pounds, has become the subject of an extensive BBC exposé for faking viral stories of kindness to make money.
On Thursday, the BBC released a documentary, Britain’s Hero Plumber Exposed, with an accompanying report accusing Depher founder James Anderson of lying in X posts, using photos of non-consenting beneficiaries and spending company cash on a house and a car.
Anderson has accrued a huge online following in recent years for his social media posts detailing the desperate pleas for help his charity has answered — prompting two million pounds in donations, according to BBC analysis of company accounts and even receiving letters of thanks from the late Queen Elizabeth II and the now-King Charles.

King Charles “protects” Kate Middleton against any royal family members who question when she will return to royal duties. He threatens the “riot act” against anyone who speaks negatively about the Princess of Wales, claims a royal author.

King Charles has become Kate Middleton’s fiercest champion. The king continues to stand up for the Princess of Wales as she recovers from a cancer diagnosis.
Fox News Digital spoke to Christopher Andersen, author of The King, about Charles’ more protective role toward his daughter-in-law. Anderson believes the king’s devotion to supporting Kate within the palace is raising eyebrows in the royal family.
“There are those inside and outside the palace who have criticized Kate over the years [before her diagnosis] for supposedly not shouldering her share of the royal burden. For not going to as many ribbon cuttings, hospital openings, and plaque unveilings as the late Queen Elizabeth II,...

On the first Monday of May, fashion lovers tune into the Met Gala red carpet to see what each of their favorite celebrities are wearing. The Met Gala is a huge topic of conversation each year, while audiences analyze each fashion choice, each guest, and whether or not these celebrities fit the theme of the gala. This year, the Met Gala featured two themes of sorts. The Met Gala’s 2024 theme was ‘Sleeping Beauties: Reawakening Fashion’, inspired by the Costume Institute of the Metropolitan Museum of Art's latest exhibition. However, the dress code was ‘The Garden of Time’, nodding its head to the visuals of the briar woods of ‘Sleeping Beauty’. With this dress code, we were bound to see plenty of florals and nature-inspired looks this evening. In case you missed it, here are some of the most memorable looks from Monday evening.

How do the makers of Bridgerton keep a fandom as dedicated as theirs guessing? How does the Netflix show surprise a core of fans who are so intimately familiar with Julia Quinn’s source books that they’re anticipating every blush and ball before it even gets to the screen?
One solution, as has happened in season three, is to play with the established order of things. Though Benedict Bridgerton’s romance follows on from that of his brother Anthony’s in Quinn’s book series, the TV show has (rightly!) vaulted over that to first show the love story between Colin Bridgerton and Penelope Featherington.
Their other answer? Invention. In addition to TV-only characters Madame Delacroix, Will and Alice Mondrich and Queen Charlotte herself, a new raft of invented-for-the-show characters appear in season three. Here they all are, along with info on the actors playing them, plus a couple...

Prince Harry recently returned to the U.K. for a three-day trip to celebrate the anniversary of the Invictus Games he founded 10 years ago. There was a special service held at St. Paul’s Cathedral in London to commemorate the anniversary of the Games. Some of Princess Diana’s siblings were in attendance but no one from the royal family attended the ceremony even though they were reportedly invited.
No one expected Harry’s brother, Prince William, or his sister-in-law, who is undergoing treatment for cancer to attend. But not seeing any royals especially one of the duke’s favorite relatives show up to support him has angered some Sussex fans. Here’s who that is and what’s being said about them.

The British Royal Family is often a source of scandal. You can verify this thanks to The Crown by Peter Morgan or a simple attempt to Google the latest news from Buckingham Palace: you will see the recent "disappearance" of Kate Middleton and Prince Harry's tossing between the US and UK, and the false statement about the death of the King.
A recent movie released on Netflix depicts another high-profile story involving the son of Elizabeth II. The scandal reached its climax in 2019, when the prince gave an interview to the BBC and created a wave of criticism against him. It was the historic conversation that became the subject of study by director Philip Martin in the film Scoop.
The movie is based on a book by Sam McAlister, the same producer who finally persuaded Prince Andrew to break his silence.

The queen was both a very ordinary person, and a completely unique and remarkable person.”

There was speculation leading up to Prince Harry‘s U.K. visit about whether King Charles would meet with the Duke of Sussex while he was in town to celebrate the 10th anniversary of the Invictus Games. After Harry touched down in London though, it was reported that no such meeting would take place.
Now, someone who used to work for the monarch and knows Harry well is explaining why it’s “odd” that they didn’t see each other.
What King Charles’ ex-aide said about King Charles not making time to see Prince Harry
Grant Harrold was King Charles’ butler from 2004 to 2011. During his time working for the monarch his duties also included that of valet, house manager, and driver. He also looked after Prince William and Prince Harry whenever they stayed at Highgrove House.

King Charles III is down “points” after skipping Prince Harry’s Invictus Games anniversary service. His absence has been widely perceived as a “snub” in the British press. However, a royal biographer thinks the king has a chance to redeem himself, and soon. How? By making a nod to the Duke of Sussex when he hands over the role of Colonel-in-Chief of the Army Air Corps, the regiment Harry served in, to Prince William—another move widely seen as a “snub”—in an upcoming ceremony.
Charles ‘lost a few points’ by not joining Harry at the Invictus Games anniversary service
The Duke of Sussex didn’t see his father while in London, England, marking 10 years of the Invictus Games. Not in a brief meeting like in February 2024 or publicly at the games’ anniversary service.

British royal family news reveals that Prince Harry’s rude behavior toward his father King Charles at the time of Queen Elizabeth’s death could have frightened Charles into avoiding his son as if he were the plague.
Here’s what Newsweek’s chief royal correspondent, Jack Royston, told Royal Report about the shaky father-son relationship.
Harry was in London last week for an Invictus Games event. No royal, senior or otherwise (looking at you Eugenie) chose to visit with the torrid traitor.

Being a grandfather is complicated for King Charles III. Amid his ongoing rift with Prince Harry and Meghan Markle, the leader of the British royal family rarely gets to see Prince Archie, 5, and Princess Lilibet, 2. As a result, per a commentator, the king is likely “showering love” on the rest of his grandchildren to compensate.
Charles wants to be a ‘doting granddad’ to Harry and Meghan’s children
King Charles is a grandfather of five. There are Prince William and Kate Middleton’s kids—Prince George, 10, Princess Charlotte, 9, and Prince Louis, 6. Then there’s the Duke and Duchess of Sussex’s kids, Archie and Lilibet.

When members of the royal family go on tours, members of the press go with them.
The journalists are there to cover the tour by reporting on the engagements being carried out and other work being done as well as making sure they get plenty of photos showcasing the purpose of the trip.

A positive attitude. That’s what Kate Middleton has whenever she’s around Prince George, Princess Charlotte, and Prince Louis amid her ongoing cancer battle. The Princess of Wales is, per a royal author, being “upbeat,” along with her husband, Prince William, the Prince of Wales, whenever their children, ages 10, 9, and 6, are around.
Kate is ‘resolutely cheerful’ around George, Charlotte, and Louis as she continues cancer treatment
According to royal author Christopher Andersen, Kate is a constant “ray of light” in the royal family. “She remains a ray of light in what can often be a suffocatingly stuffy environment behind palace walls,” he told Us Weekly, noting William and Kate’s marriage “has been tumultuous” in the last year due to her health issues.

Some birthday gifts just aren’t going to happen, even for British royalty. Prince Archie, Prince Harry and Meghan Markle’s son who turned 5 on May 6, 2024, reportedly missed out on a “superb” birthday gift costing thousands of dollars from his grandfather, King Charles III. The reason, according to a royal author and commentator, is because the Duke and Duchess of Sussex were concerned it’d remind Archie too much of royal life.
King Charles wanted to give Archie an elaborate playhouse for his birthday
In the lead-up to Archie’s birthday, Tom Quinn, author of Gilded Youth, a book about growing up in the royal family, discussed potential birthday gifts. Particularly one from King Charles with a hefty price tag.
The king, Quinn told Express, “suggested that he give Archie a playhouse. Not a plastic child’s playhouse, but a superb hand-made shepherd’s hut, complete with bunks and bookshelves.

Queen Elizabeth was gifted her engagement ring from Prince Philip and wore it daily until her death in September 2022. So where is it today? Who has it?
Who has Queen Elizabeth’s engagement ring?
The royal family generally bequeaths heirloom jewelry to others in the House of Windsor. Therefore, it is likely that Queen Elizabeth’s engagement ring is now in safekeeping for an undisclosed family member.
However, the ring may also be part of the royal jewelry collection. The Jewellery Editor reveals where Queen Elizabeth’s collection may be kept.
The queen was known to have around 400 tiaras, rings, necklaces, and brooches. The jewelry collection is reportedly rich in history and of unmistakable value. These jewels are stashed 40 feet under Buckingham Palace in a converted air raid shelter with an alarm connected to the palace’s police station.

King Charles experienced a major change in his life when he transitioned to the monarch after his mother, Queen Elizabeth II, died. Another person who went through a transition as well is Queen Camilla (formerly Camilla Parker Bowles). While the king had prepared most of his life for his role, the role queen isn’t one Camilla was born into.
She willingly accepted that but it was anyone’s guess if the general public would ever accept her. Here’s what someone who used to work for Charles and Camilla says he’s noticed since their coronation.

With the century’s biggest royal drama show The Crown ending its run back in 2023, the TV industry was surely left with no other choice but to switch its attention to something else rather than The Royal Family’s life full of its own ups and downs. This probably was accepted by many production companies, but not by Netflix.
The streaming’s Royal-ish release of last month Scoop wasn’t expected to be a hit that massive, but the movie’s results seemingly provoked a big change of plans for Netflix in the nearest years.
Starring Gillian Anderson as journalist Emily Maitlis, Scoop follows a sequence of events that led Mailtis to carrying out a scandalous and viral interview with Queen Elizabeth II’s son Prince Andrew regarding his relationships with sex offender Jeffrey Epstein.
Though many critics called the actual interview footage a much more compelling and deep thing to watch in this case,...

Ian McKellen is one of the most respected and talented actors in Hollywood. Over the course of his lengthy career, he established himself as a force to be reckoned with, achieving so much through his acting career that he was even knighted by Queen Elizabeth II. His versatility knows no limitations, having starred in many different kinds of roles and movies from all genres.
Sir Ian McKellen as Gandolf in The Hobbit
Considering just how talented and successful he is, it is not surprising that the actor is offered many different types of roles. Sometimes that may be through lesser-known sources, and others they may be very high-profile projects.
It would seem that the actor was asked to be a part of Tom Cruise’s iconic film series, Mission: Impossible, being offered the role of Commander Swanbeck in the second movie. Interestingly enough, the actor rejected this offer due to one reason.
