Also in attendance were TV personalities Jess Wright, Tasha Ghouri, Dani Dyer and Scarlett Moffatt as well as journalist Sir Trevor McDonald, all gathered for the unveiling of an immersive pop-up store dedicated to biscuit enthusiasts.

It’s an honor to celebrate the 100th birthday of this pop-up experience, said the woman who spoke about the event, “As a lifelong fan of eating and dunking Chocolate Digestives.”

She referred to it as a “must-see” for chocolate lovers. She continued, “I can’t recall when I first gave them to my kids as a small treat.” Both of my girls and I still enjoy them. She also mentioned that she has been consuming the biscuits incorrectly all along. Who knew, it’s meant to be enjoyed upside down, as it turns out?

In honor of the city’s 100th anniversary celebrations, McVitie’s spectacular light show projected images of the beloved biscuits onto the city’s iconic landmarks last week dazzled Londoners.

The exclusive pop-up event located at Piccadilly Circus in the heart of London will continue the centenary celebrations this weekend. You must mark your calendar if you want to visit because it is free but only for one weekend.

The Biscuit Bar, where visitors can find never-before-seen treats made from a variety of Digestives, serves as the heart of this unique experience.

Robert Craggs, the Michelin-trained head development chef at McVitie’s, is the mastermind behind the menu’s dazzling array of bold and unexpected flavor pairings.

The “Hot Pink” biscuit, which combines white chocolate treats with wasabi, raspberry, and white chocolate, and the “Loaded Gold” biscuit, which is decorated with hazelnut praline and salted caramel, are two examples of the creative offerings.

There is also a station where Digestive fans can make their own customised chocolatey treats with a choice of toppings for those who want to give them a personal touch.

This milestone is not just about a biscuit, according to McVitie’s spokesperson Benazir Barlet-Bartada. Every biscuit break, every conversation, and every special moment we’ve all enjoyed over the past century are celebrated nationally.

McVitie’s Chocolate Digestives has also produced a selection of limited-edition merch to honor the nation’s cherished biscuit’s 100th birthday, including snazzy tees, cozy socks, and fashionable caps.

All of these are open for winning as part of the event’s “spin and win” process.

As if that weren’t enough, there are also a number of works of art that were created from the tea-break adage.

Using more than 1, 000 McVitie’s Digestives, including Milk, Dark, Gold, and White varieties, commissioned mosaic artist Ed Chapman meticulously pieced together portraits of British legends like David Bowie, Sir Trevor McDonald, and Dame Judi Dench, for more than 180 hours.

A special work also features 25 of the most memorable moments from the past 100 years, each depicted on a different Chocolate Digestives, brought to life on a biscuit by a deft airbrushing method.

Benazir Barlet-Bartada expressed excitement saying: “We’re thrilled to offer our loyal fans this incredible experience as a way to say thank you for the unwavering support over the last century – here’s to the next 100.”

The McVitie’s Chocolate Digestives Experience is available for purchase for biscuit enthusiasts without a fee.

One piece of advice from Sir David Attenborough for those looking to reconnect with nature may be beneficial for your health. In a 10-minute episode of Call of the Wild, the 98-year-old naturalist shared his wisdom.

“Sit down. Don’t move,” he told podcast host Cel Spellman in 2021. “Keep quiet. Wait ten minutes. You’ll be very surprised if something pretty interesting didn’t happen.

If you haven’t done it, it’s extraordinary to do it in a forest. Don’t be too patient either. Although Attenborough’s trick may seem too simple, recent research supports its claim.

This includes a 2020 study from Cornell University, which found that students who spent as little as 10 minutes in the natural world daily were less affected by physical and mental stress. In turn, ‘nature therapy’ is being increasingly praised as an alternative tool to help prevent anxiety, depression and other mental health issues.

We’re talking 10 minutes outside in a space with nature, according to Associate Professor Gen Meredith at the time; it doesn’t take long for the benefits to start to manifest. Every student, regardless of their subject or level of workload, has that much discretionary time each day, or at least once a week, in our opinion.

She then continued, “This is an opportunity to challenge our perceptions of what nature can be.” Trees, a planter with flowers, a grassy quad or a wooded area are really all that we have around us.

Reducing stress not only improves an individual’s mental health but is also associated with lowered blood pressure, better sleep quality, and a bolstered immune system. According to Professor Heather Eliassen of Harvard University, this can potentially slash the risk of chronic diseases like diabetes and heart disease, too.

The British Heart Foundation estimates that one life every three minutes is lost in the UK due to heart and circulatory diseases, which accounts for a quarter of all deaths. According to Professor Eliassen, “Research is also accumulating that green space exposure is associated with lower overall mortality.”

She then continued, “With more exposure to green space, both children and adults, have better mental health and lower risk of psychiatric disorders.

Attenborough has significantly reduced his red meat consumption over the years and maintains a predominantly plant-based diet in addition to his 10-minute wellness routine.

His efforts coincide with growing scientific concern about the link between consuming red meat and serious health conditions. He stated in a 2017 interview with The Sun, “I have undoubtedly changed my diet. Not particularly dramatic. However, I don’t believe I’ve had red meat in a while.

David Attenborough’s heartbreaking end of life message in full as he makes emotional plea

David Attenborough has entertained and informed fans for over 70 years, but he has made a sharp admission as he approaches his 99th birthday.

David Attenborough made an emotional plea with the world as he admits he is nearing the end of his life. The wildlife expert has thrilled nature lovers for seven decades as he captured the essence of every corner of the globe.

However, the legendary broadcaster made a stern statement at the age of 98. As he admitted that he is “approaching the end of his life,” and opened up about his mortality as he waited to celebrate his 99th birthday on May 1, he made the heartbreaking confession.

In his new feature, Ocean with David Attenborough, he made an admission. He said: “When I first saw the sea as a young boy, it was thought of as a vast wilderness to be tamed and mastered for the benefit of humanity.

We are aware that the opposite is true as I near the end of my life. I now understand that the most significant location on Earth is at sea, not on land, after nearly a hundred years of living here.

“Today, it is in such poor health I would find it hard not to lose hope were it not for the most remarkable discovery of all. If we save the sea, we save our world. After a lifetime of filming our planet, I’m sure nothing is more important.”

Continue reading the article.

The great age of ocean discovery has also occurred in my lifetime, he continued. Scientists and explorers have discovered remarkable new species, epic migrations, and dazzling, complex ecosystems that were previously unimaginable for a young man over the course of the last hundred years.

We discuss some of those wonderful discoveries, explain why our ocean is in such poor health, and, most importantly, demonstrate how to restore health to the ocean. The moment might be different at this.

“On paper, nearly every nation on Earth has agreed to do the bare minimum and protect a third of the ocean.” We now have to work together to make it happen.

Sir David has been fascinated by nature since ever since childhood. He studied natural sciences at Cambridge University before later joining the BBC.

1954 saw his first TV performance. Initial impressions had been made that he couldn’t be a presenter because his teeth were “too big.”

His work is unmatched, though. He has now, however, sadly stated to his fans that he doesn’t anticipate living too long.

Sir David has long focused on the issues that the environment faces around the world through his documentaries. He has also contributed significantly to the development of initiatives aimed at preserving endangered species.

Inside Oasis’ first reunion – what really happened when Liam Gallagher met Noel

Noel and Liam met at a mini-Oasis reunion last week for an Adidas promo, but some of the claims were false and Liam has since corrected the situation.

Some Might Say it was the first performance by Liam Gallagher and brother Noel after they reunited last week. But Liam has explained what really happened at the Mildmay working men’s club in Stoke Newington, North London. And despite some reports suggesting they may have been making music, the brothers were just meeting for a promo video for Adidas. However there was a closeness between the Oasis brothers which hasn’t been there for two decades.

In response to headlines in one newspaper, Liam responded to tweets by saying, “There was no performance. When a fan pointed out that the Adidas commercial would have only been music playing, Liam replied “in 1,” which would presumably mean the lad had got it right with his theory, “you’ve got it in one.”

However, when asked if he had given brother Noel a hug, Liam continued to say “of course.”

Fans might find the ideal Liam and Noel excited about the reunion to be the best news.

“It’s all good, I can’t wait to start rehearsals,” Liam said. We are locked in, and he’s the same. When questioned about how it felt to work together, he responded “Devine.”

Continue reading the article.

The pair will be back on stage together in July for the Oasis Live 25 tour which was an instant sell out as millions of fans scrambled for tickets.

As the Mirror revealed earlier in April the full eagerly awaited Oasis reunion will happen later this month – with band rehearsals beginning in May.

Noel has been rehearsing songs and writing new material in London since returning from the studio.

However, the songwriter and Oasis will meet up next month, with Liam serving as the last remaining member of the ensemble before a summer filled with big gigs.

Noel is frequently in and out of the studio recording, according to them, because it’s only natural for him to do so.

However, Liam is a singer and will be overdoing rehearsals because he has a long list of dates booked for this year with Oasis. His voice needs rest most at the moment after a big solo performance on Definitely Maybe tour your last year. Recently, he has been relaxing and spending time with his mother, Peggy.

The band will begin reuniting in May, according to the plan. Liam will be the last to join in the vocal work and will jam out and create a set list.

There is plenty of time left over because Liam, a born rock and roll star, has lived and breathed these songs and has performed a lot of them solo, so there is no need for much practice.

“But the rest of the band needs to rehearse more, especially with a brand-new drummer in the mix.”

Joey Waronker and other well-known former Oasis band members are joining Liam and Noel Gallagher on drums.

The full line up is expected to be Liam Gallagher, Noel Gallagher, Paul “Bonehead” Arthurs, Gem Archer, Andy Bell and Joey Waronker.

Noel responded to a question earlier this month about the Oasis Live 25 ticket sales, saying, “I thought it’d be a big deal, but I was surprised by how much of a big deal it was.”

He is also asked which Oasis song is his favorite, but he responded, “Can I have more than one? ” Rock’n’Roll Star, Some Might Say, Live Forever, and Supersonic are just a few examples.

Kanye West unleashes expletive-filled rant at Kim Kardashian over kids in bizarre video

Kanye West went on another rant on Wednesday as he criticised his co-parenting arrangement for his four children he shares with his ex-wife, reality TV star Kim Kardashian

Kanye West went on yet another expletive-filled rant on social media with Kim Kardashian his focus once again. The controversial rapper, 47, took to a livestream to hit out at his ex-wife, 44, about their co-parenting arrangements.

Kanye – who is now legally known as Ye – shares four children with the reality TV star; North, 11, Saint, nine, Chicago, seven, and Psalm, five. However, the musician appears to be unhappy with his lack of parental time with the quartet. In a new video, in which Ye’s face is covered with a mask, the star blasts: “‘F*** all these f***** n*****. I’mma go get these kids, bro.

” I’m talking to the lawyers – it gets to the point where I don’t lose my f***in ‘ mind where I got to get used to not seeing my kids. “

He had said:”]DJ] Akademiks put that battery in my back, bro – cause I was in the airport by myself … That s*** is so important to me man… I’mma go get these kids, man! “

He then fumed he isn’t here to” be your idol “before adding:” I’m the leader. I’m not here to be worshipped. And as the leader I’m saying how am I supposed to lead y’all if I don’t got my kids with me to continue what we’re doing. I ain’t got no motherf****** legacy. “

It’s the latest outburst Ye has shared amid his childcare issue with ex Kim, who filed for divorce from the rapper in 2021. In March, he shared and later deleted threatening texts at his ex-wife Kim Kardashian as he declared he was ready to” go to war “with her.

It came after he released a song with Sean ‘ Diddy ‘ Combs that features his and Kim’s daughter North, 11. Diddy is behind bars awaiting trial on sex trafficking, racketeering and transportation to engage in prostitution – charges that P Diddy denies.

The track’s release is said to have infuriated Kim, who is claimed to have sought legal action in a bid to “protect” North from having any affiliation with Diddy. Ye then went on to share alleged screenshots of the former couple’s text messages in which Kim pleads with the rapper to ‘stop’, claiming she has copyright of North’s name.

In his March rant, Ye was furious to learn his collaborations with Playboi Carti had been left off his latest album. He also hit out over Carti asking Kim to get North to send some songs.

Taking to Twitter/X at the time, he insisted North would not be working with Carti. He went on to claim he can make the final decision since he is her father. He wrote: “I DECIDED NORTH WONT BE DOING ANY SONGS WITH CARTI, HOW IT LOOK FOR ME TO GET LEFT OFF THE ALBUM AND THEN HE ASK KIM TO HAVE VOCALS FROM MY DAUGHTER I DONT A F**K ABOUT NONE OF THIS INDUSTRY S**T AND HOW IT’S A SKIMS LINE IN THE FIRST PLACE AND I DONT GIVE A F**K WHAT NO COMMENTS.”
