© @Copyright HELLO! Hello! Magazine Whether they're presenting Saturday Night Takeaway, Britain's Got Talent or I'm a Celebrity… Get Me Out of Here!, Geordie duo Ant McPartlin and Declan Donnelly never fail to make audiences at home laugh. MORE: The sweet way Dec reacted to Ant's engagement news revealedHaving been on screens for over 25 years now, the pair have lots of fun times to reminisce over, and shared a surprising memory whilst chatting to Glamour magazine last year.

John Le Carré may be known as one of the great authors of British espionage and he saved one of his greatest twists for his own life.

Letter from the Editor The glitz and glamour of the Academy Awards have always felt like a far-flung fantastical concept from here in Britain. Taking place in the wee hours of the night while everyone is soundly asleep, save for the steely journalists and movie-obsessives staying up and watching hours of coverage to find perfect showbiz nuggets to dissect.

In the wearily predictable 1990s throwback sphere that Every Breath You Take inhabits, the combination of a comfortably upper middle-class family navigating a rough patch while living in modernist real-estate porn invariably means they will repair their frayed bonds by slamming around that house fighting for their lives against a raging psychotic in the final reel.

In the years before World War II, the Augusta-Victoria College, a girls’ boarding school in Bexhill-on-Sea, catered to a very specific audience: The daughters and goddaughters of important Germans and high ranking Nazi officials. It is believed that the intent of the school was to educate the girls in the language and British customs and was part of a strategy to keep England and Germany close.
