M&S shoppers rave about £46 jumper that looks just like Claudia Winkleman’s £1k Traitors knit

Customers at M&S are rushing to purchase Claudia Winkleman’s £1k Isabel Marant knit from Celebrity Traitors, which has a cosy cloud yarn knit that resembles Claudia Winkleman’s £1k Isabel Marant knit.

You’re in luck if, like us, you loved Claudia Winkleman’s yarn but couldn’t justify the over £1k price tag, as we did for the other Celebrity Traitors yarn.

Marks & Spencer has recently launched its latest winter fashion campaign, which features a strikingly similar jumper.

The $46 Cloud-Yarn Textured Funnel Neck Relaxed Jumper is the knitted item. This warming jumper costs less than Claudia’s Isabel Marant version and is made of soft cloud yarn with a cosy neckline.

This knit has a relaxed, laid-back vibe that is ideal for pairing with slouchy jeans for a casual look. The same way, you could wear pointed-heeled boots and tailored trousers to the jumper.

Shoppers were also quick to notice its likeness to Claudia’s now sold-out knit. One commented, “Loved this. Saw Claudia Winkleman wearing an Isabel Maura’s sweater similar on “The Traitors“ couldn’t justify the price . Saw this and thought I’d give it a go . Excellent quality for the price. Aptly described as “cloud yarn“ it’s so so soft.”

A second added,“Fabulous, stylish jumper. Very similar to a jumper worn by Claudia Winkleman on Traitors that costs £££££ more, the style is meant to be oversized so I didn’t downsize. Soft, warm and comfortable to wear. Had compliments every time I’ve worn it. Well done M&S!!”

While a third person wrote, “Beautifully soft and cozy to wear. looks very similar to a designer’s version that cost 8 times as much! “Oversized appearance that looks great with leggings and boots”

The only criticism I received was from a customer, who claimed that the four stars I’ve given were merely a result of the fabric’s delicate nature. Be careful if you’re clumsy; it’s very simple to “pull one of the loops out of shape”!

This jumper is already selling out quickly on the M&amp, S website, but there are still some sizes to choose from.

The £140 ARRANGE pure wool hand knit ultimate loop fringe jumper has a similar loop texture and neutral cream color if you weren’t quick enough to get one. The all-over fringing adds the drama and fun Claudia’s jumper has, while the boxy and oversized silhouette maintains the cool factor.

Captain Ekitike and triple Arsenal defence – FPL team of the week

This week, how many Liverpool players can you add to your team?

Hugo Ekitike and the Reds face a Wolves side that is on the verge of the worst Premier League season yet. They have won their previous two games.

Liverpool players must be your top priority if you have kept some of your free Africa Cup of Nations transfers in hand and have money to spend on replacing Bruno Fernandes who is injured.

As if you were playing a Free Hit, the team of the week is chosen based on the current FPL prices to fit within a £100m budget.

What was the team’s performance last week?

The team scored 82 points, including a bonus 10-pointer from Antonee Robinson off the bench, under the direction of Captain Erling Haaland (32 points), Antoine Semenyo (10 points), and Hugo Ekitike.

Protector and defense

Arsenal keeper David Raya, £6 million transfer to Brighton (h)

With less than half the season still in play, Arsenal’s defense struggled a little with Gabriel’s injury, but they have already kept two clean sheets in their last four and nine.

This season, the Gunners have kept clean sheets in every but three of their home games. Erling Haaland scored the goals that were conceded, Richarlison’s stunning halfway header, and Tolu Arokodare’s unexpected late winner for the typically toothless Wolves.

Jurrien Timber (£6.5m) and Piero Hincapie (£5.5m), ArsenalBrighton (h)

This week’s Arsenal defense trio is on fire.

They face a Brighton side that hasn’t scored in their previous two games, and they have the best defense in the league and have kept a clean sheet in more than half of their matches.

In their eight away games, the Seagulls have only scored nine goals.

Timber is a good choice every week and, with his return to right-back, has more attacking potential.

In his previous four starts, which included two clean sheets, Hincapie has collected defensive contribution points (defcon).

Liverpool defender Virgil van Dijk, £57.00 – Wolves (h)

If I could, I would pick six Liverpool players for this week.

In their 2-0 home loss to Brentford on Saturday, Wolves lost 10 games without scoring.

All-season, they have only managed two goals on the road, nine of which are goals. As safe as they come, this is.

Sunderland‘s Omar Alderete, £4 million- Leeds (h)

I’m backing a Sunderland clean sheet at home despite the recent upward trend in goalscoring and Dominic Calvert-Lewin’s form.

Midfield

Manchester United’s Mason Mount, £5.9 million signing, Newcastle (h)

With Bruno Fernandes out, Mount should play a significant role for Manchester United in the coming games.

United has scored 8.78 goals in its past three games, beating second-best Leeds by 5.68, which is the league’s highest expected goals (xG) by more than three goals.

They have won seven games against a Newcastle side that haven’t been particularly strong on the road.

Mount is likely to take on a lot of Fernandes’ creative responsibilities, especially on set-pieces, and is a strong choice as number 10 overall.

Liverpool‘s Florian Wirtz, £8.1 million-Wolves (h)

A home game against Wolves is the ideal time for it because Wirtz is on the verge of a haul.

In three of his previous four games, he has returned with two assists and one assist.

He has created 10 chances in that time, which is the most of any Liverpool player, and his xG is 0 / 8.

Morgan Rogers, Chelsea, Aston Villa, $7.2 million (a)

Rogers’ form is unavoidable with 30 points in two games.

Villa’s hero, who can score a goal from a box with only a yard of space available.

Strikers

Hugo Ekitike (captain), Liverpool, £8.9m – Wolves (h)

Ekitike will receive the captain’s armband this week because he faces a terrible Wolves side, has no other options for starting, and has five goals in three games.

Nottingham Forest, Manchester City, £15.1 million, Erling Haaland (a)

Haaland won’t be dropped, but because of his tougher away match this week, I’m willing to take his place with captaincy.

Jarrod Bowen, West Ham, £7.6m – Fulham (h)

Bowen hasn’t been a popular choice this year because he switched from midfield to striker, but his five goals and two assists have made him the front-row man with the fourth-highest points total.

Police Nab Three Masquerades Over Street Display In Akwa Ibom

Three masquerades have been detained by the Akwa Ibom State Police Command after allegedly displaying them on the streets without permission and mutilating innocent people.

Baba Azare, the state commissioner of police, made this known to reporters in Uyo on Monday during a briefing.

During the Saturday-held Ekid Day celebration, Azare revealed that the masquerades had been detained in the state’s Eket Local Government Area.

He noted that state hospitals were providing medical care to those who had been harmed by the masquerades. The commissioner complained that the masquerades’ actions were in contravention of the governor’s recent executive order, which forbids masquerades from entering the streets without the police’s consent.

Eno acknowledged his deepest respect for the culture and tradition two weeks prior, but he also emphasized that his decision was motivated by a desire to end the threat of insecurity, chaos, and nuisance perpetuated by masquerades and restore dignity and sanity in society.

The commissioner stated at the event that the Command is in compliance with the Akwa Ibom State Government’s Executive Order, which forbids masquerade events from public places and requires police presence.

“This action significantly reduced violence and disorder,” says the report.

Why Hollywood battle could change how you watch sport

  • 273 Comments

Hollywood is currently hosting a multi-billion dollar takeover fight, with Premier League executives closely watching.

Warner Bros. Discovery is being tried by Netflix and Paramount Skydance, along with titles like Harry Potter, Barbie, and Game of Thrones.

TNT Sports, a key player in a tense battle between some of the world’s best TV shows and films, is hidden within Warner Bros. Discovery.

The outcome of the takeover tug-of-war will have a direct impact on the UK’s future of sporting rights.

Why is sport so important after takeover?

TNT Sports has been a competitive player in the rights market since 2012, or BT Sport as it was known then.

In the UK, it holds the FA Cup and the Saturday lunchtime Premier League packages.

Other significant assets include the rugby union, motorsport, and cycling, but football has always been a major source of revenue.

TNT Sports increased the value of Champions League TV rights, but it no longer owns them.

Warner Bros Discovery and BT have the rights to the Olympics, which was established in 2022, and the channel is now a joint venture.

The value of sports rights is maintained by strong, steady competition, which TNT has played a key role in in recent years in the UK.

Enders Analysis’ media and telecoms analyst Francois Godard told BBC Sport, “TNT Sports is enshrouded in uncertainty.”

Who will be Warner Brothers’ owner? Who will be the owner of TNT Sports?

Currently, BT Group holds 50%. However, it is negotiating a deal with Warner Bros. Discovery to sell its remaining shares. That at least would improve the ease of a future sale.

In that scenario, it is possible that TNT Sports is acquired by another business as part of a takeover process.

Why the Netflix deal might be disruptive to sports

The UK television landscape will change over the coming years.

ITV is reportedly mulling a deal with Sky to buy its broadcasting company for £1.6 billion.

ITV and Sky must now react in the face of fierce competition from streaming services like Netflix and Disney+.

Will they find themselves competing in the sports industry with Netflix?

Although there is some doubt about how much ambition its executives have here, all the evidence suggests otherwise.

With “the entertainment” boxing matches like Mike Tyson vs. Jake Paul, Netflix has previously beaten its own drum.

It was claimed to be in contention for Paramount’s rights to the Champions League.

For the first time in its history that it has purchased the rights to a sports competition in full, Netflix has secured the rights to the US Women’s World Cups of 2027 and 2031.

Gianni Infantino, the president of Fifa, praised Netflix as “a recognizable brand and the company’s new long-term partner.”

That was highlighted on Wednesday when Fifa revealed that the video game would be produced for the 2026 World Cup in partnership with Netflix.

For the men’s World Cup upcoming year, Netflix also signed Gary Lineker’s The Rest is Football podcast.

A consistent series of Premier League games, similar to what Amazon Prime used to be, would be more in line with the business model of Netflix. At least until now.

Pescatore thinks TNT Sports could give UK athletes “fast-track access” to the competitive sports rights market.

Netflix has a purpose, according to him, but they have realized that the idea of live programming makes viewers tune in at that very moment.

However, Godard made the point that Netflix and TNT Sports UK are still having a lot of thought about it.

Warner Bros. Discovery is separating itself into two parts.

The streaming and studios divisions of the company, which TNT Sports in the UK is a part of, have recently been purchased by Netflix.

However, the US business of TNT Sports is not included in the deal, which raises questions about Netflix’s intentions.

TNT Sports was not mentioned in the press release announcing the Netflix deal. The movietic arm of HBO and the TV behemoth were the subject of all the discussion.

This graphic shows which brands would be included in a Netflix sale and which additional brands would be part of a Paramount takeover

What role does Paramount play in this play?

Warner Bros. Discovery shareholders have been making higher offers, as Paramount Skydance has attempted to muscle in.

Because the offer covers the entire business, the takeover would be simpler.

Warner Bros. Discovery’s shareholders were instructed to reject Paramount Skydance’s $ 108.4 billion (£80.8 billion) offer on Wednesday, though.

TNT Sports’s more glaring bedfellow is Paramount.

It already has Champions League rights in the US under its CBS brand and has already shown its clear intent in the sports rights market, including football and UFC. It will also be in control of the UK market starting in 2027.

Pescator claims Paramount has an open checkbook, which paid more than £1 billion over four years for Champions League rights.

What would fans be affected by this?

In the UK subscription market, there are already companies like Sky Sports, TNT Sports, Premier Sports, Disney+, and DAZN.

Add the Champions League’s Paramount starting in 2027, unless mergers occur before that time.

In the UK, bids will begin for the upcoming year’s worth of Premier League rights in 2027.

The 2025-29 deal was worth £6.7bn. Will a new, ambitious player emerge?

No one has the economics to compete with Sky Sports, according to Godard.

The new ownership structure, according to Godard, “would certainly make the Premier League more interested,” he said.

In the US, NBC’s Premier League rights expire in 2028. This might give Netflix and Paramount’s intentions a heads-up.

Pescatore asserts that Disney+’s interest cannot be excluded.

Disney+ already owns the rights to the Saturday night La Liga game in the UK and the Women’s Champions League throughout all of Europe.

Or could the future hold a completely different outcome?

One suggestion is that the Premier League might decide to create its own direct-to-consumer channel, “Premflix,” to show some of the games on its own.

NewsFeed

Nicolas Maduro, the president of Venezuela, said Trump should focus on the issues in his own country while US President Donald Trump cautioned him to “not play tough” and to step down on Monday. Trump assured reporters that the US would retain the 1.9 million barrels of oil seized in December near Venezuela.

Kon Knueppel, a rookie Charlotte Hornets player, lost to the Cleveland Cavaliers 139-132, becoming the fastest player to make 100 three-pointers in the NBA.

The 20-year-old, who was the fourth pick overall in the 2025 draft, scored the only goal in Rocket Arena’s first quarter and reached the milestone with just 29 games remaining.

Lauri Markkanen, a Utah Jazz player for the Chicago Bulls, held the previous record of 41 games in 2017-18.

Knueppel finished with 20 points from his nine three-point attempts against the Cavaliers, while LaMelo Ball added 23 and Brandon Miller added 20.

However, the Cavaliers had only 30 points, with DeAndre Hunter having 27 and Darius Garland having 10 assists.
