Naman Ramachandran British actor Ben Hardy, whose credits include “X-Men: Apocalypse,” “Bohemian Rhapsody” and Netflix’s “Love at First Sight,” is one of the leads in upcoming film “Unicorns.” Co-directed by BAFTA nominee Sally El Hosaini (“The Swimmers”) and her long-standing collaborator James Krishna Floyd, from a script written by Floyd, the film follows a queer South Asian club performer (Jason Patel) living a double life who meets Luke, a straight, single-father mechanic, with whom unexpected sparks begin to fly. Hardy, who plays Luke in the LGBTQ+ romantic drama, was drawn to the project by the unique story and the opportunity to work with director El Hosaini. “It was a challenging role for me, something I’d never played before,” Hardy said of portraying Luke, a working-class mechanic who enters the world of “gaysian” clubs in London.
People are only just learning what numbers on the fridge dial actually mean
10.06.2024 - 09:45 / dailyrecord.co.uk
Inside every fridge is a dial with a series of numbers, but many people are clueless about the vital role it plays in keeping your food as fresh as possible.
The small dial is typically located near the door hinge of your fridge and controls the internal temperature of the appliance. But not in the way you might think.
Therefore misunderstanding the dial's function could lead to your food, be it cheese, veggies, fruit, or meat, spoiling and becoming completely inedible. And let's be honest, that's a waste of your hard-earned money - something we all want to avoid.
Whether you're a meticulous meal prepper or prefer to rustle up whatever recipe takes your fancy on the day, everyone needs to understand how this dial works to ensure the longest possible lifespan for your food and drinks. Seeking clarification, social media users took to Reddit to find out how this dial actually functions, with many admitting they had no idea how to use this feature on the durable appliance that is the heart of most kitchens, reports the Mirror.
"Thank god I'm not the only one confused by this" wrote one user. Another joked that this is the question "that 80 percent of UK citizens are too polite to ask" after all this time.
A few savvy Reddit users have come forward to clarify the confusion. They explained that contrary to what one might assume, the higher the number on the dial, the colder the fridge's internal temperature becomes, thus increasing its power usage.
So if you've ever turned the dial towards the lower numbers hoping to keep things cooler and your food fresher, you may have been inadvertently warming up the inside of your appliance.
