According to reports, The Repair Shop’s live performance had to be postponed three times in the coming year.

The alleged cancellations come as an insider claims the show’s brand has been “damaged” by Jay Blades ‘ charges. Recently, the host was accused of having coercive and controlling behavior. Blades entered a not-guilty plea in court.

After seven years of helming the program, the BBC removed Blades from the lineup due to the allegations. He was also removed from the live performance. However, they are said to have had low ticket sales despite distancing themselves from Blades, which allegedly caused the apparent cancellation of three tour dates.

To date, the shows in Newcastle, Glasgow and Edinburgh have been axed. According to the Sun, a show spokesman said there had been “unforeseen scheduling issues” meaning the show’s needed cancelling. They asserted that they were “looking forward to visiting those areas later in 2025.” However, a source told the publication that tickets “haven’t exactly been selling out”.

And on Newcastle’s O2 City Hall website, where the event was initially scheduled to take place, there’s a message now in its place that reads: “The Repair Shop Live: Secrets From The Barn. Sorry, this show has been cancelled and there aren’t any plans to reschedule”. The note further advises those purchasing tickets to contact their original retailer for a full refund and additional details.

In October, Blades was accused of coercing and controlling his estranged wife, Lisa Zbozen, in court. Prior to his court appearance in September, Blades requested bail. After the couple exchanged their vows at a lavish beachfront villa in Barbados in November 2022, Lisa announced the couple’s breakup in May of this year.

She claimed that their 18-month marriage “just got worse and worse” when she left Jay. She wrote, “I have been quiet so far, but the papers seem to be picking up this story, but some parts have definitely been missed, so it’s forced my hand… this was the entire post on a private forum: I don’t know how to say this because it’s still really raw.

“I probably should be really upset, but I’m just feeling incredibly depressed right now.” I don’t think I’ve ever cried so much. I hoped my husband would love me and protect me, and I would do the same for him, but things only got worse until I grabbed a bag full of things and left. Anyway, That’s why there’s been no new workouts. “

Although he’s been dubbed a “woman’s man,” Pete Wicks has revealed the true motivation behind his decision to stay put.

The 36-year-old reality TV star, who first appeared on TOWIE, has long been linked to a long line of women throughout his career. As rumors swirl about Love Island star Maura Higgins and his fellow Strictly dance partner Jowita Przystal, Pete has openly discussed his romantic life.

Speaking to fellow reality TV star Olivia Attwood on her Staying Relevant podcast, Pete said he had struggled to keep long-term relationships. Explaining his current feelings, Pete confessed: “I do feel like I’m now at a different stage of my life. I’m a complete p***k and an older man than I was when I was younger.

Olivia quickly said he had never had an issue finding himself a partner, but Pete interjected: “It’s keeping them”!

As Olivia tried to coax more out of Pete, she said: “You don’t keep them out of your own choice. You have been preventing anyone from entering for so long, in my opinion. You like your own space, you like to be with your dogs at home and your beer, it’s quite a sad scene really actually”.

Pete agreed and joked: “It is a little bit of a sad existence”. However, he admitted he would be prepared to let in the right person now, saying: “I don’t want to die alone”. Despite his confession, in September he revealed to The Times magazine that while he’d be open to the idea of marriage, he’s not “ready to wholeheartedly commit to a romantic relationship” at the moment as he doesn’t “fully understand” himself yet.

Pete’s has previously dated former TOWIE stars Megan McKenna, Shelby Tribble and Chloe Sims. Now, he’s strongly been linked with Irish star Maura. At the Pride of Britain Awards in October, the pair were caught kissing. Despite the show seeming to confirm their romance, Maura went into the I’m A Celebrity… Get Me Out of Here jungle claiming to be single.

It’s still to be seen if the pair will have another romantic date, despite the fact that she has since returned to England and Pete has also been chosen to leave Strictly. He did, however, seem to pour cold water on links to Jowita, saying she will “always have a friend” in him after they gained a close bond in the competition.

Rob Brydon, the star of Gavin and Stacey, revealed what it was really like to film the show’s final ever scenes, breaking new information about rumors of an onset feud.

The iconic sitcom from James Corden and Ruth Jones will be back on screens for the last time this Christmas, five years after the 2019 holiday special and 14 years after the show’s final three seasons ended in 2010.

According to reports, Rob’s Uncle Bryn might come to an abrupt end in what could turn out to be a major disappointment for viewers. However, the on-screen drama that is causing this festive return to Barry Island has dominated much of the discussion, with more attention given to the alleged conflict between former best friends James Corden and Mathew Horne.

Mat, who plays Gavin Shipman, and James, who plays his ever-popular sidekick Smithy, were once inseparable after meeting on the sitcom in 2007. But their friendship was tested by a disastrous run of collaborations in the 2010s – including a flop sitcom Horne &amp, Corden, a critically-panned film, Lesbian Vampire Killers, and a disastrous presenting gig at The BRITS. James himself acknowledged that they stopped seeing each other “263 days a year” and stopped at all.

There has been more rumors since they started filming this latest special, with claims that the stars have socialized less in their heyday than they did in the early 2000s, but this rumor only grew worse when Mat didn’t appear in James’ episode of Piers Morgan’s Life Stories.

However, Rob has quickly refuted any notions that the actors on the set had any negative feelings. In a recent interview, he claims that only watching the emotional final episode of the series made him realize how much they all shared a love for one another.

“We had such an emotional time”, says Rob. “And people might hear that and say, ‘ you’re just an actor’. But]it’s been] 17 years, you know, doing this. Everybody loves everybody. There’s nobody who doesn’t get on with anybody else on it. We all love each other”.

The Whose Line Is It Anyway star even shed a few tears as the final scenes were being filmed. There we were, as Rob puts it, knowing that this would be the very last episode, and there were several instances where I would feel like I was kind of filling up as I looked around and saw these people I’d been traveling with over the years, for lack of a better word, “journey.”

“It’s brought so much to all our lives, you know. with a character I find to be very simple. To me, wearing a pair of slippers feels like putting on a pair. There’s very little effort… required. Which is odd because I’m naturally very spiritual”!

Rob has taken care to avoid spoiling too much of “What’s Occurin” in the plot, but he’s confident that the real fans will enjoy their final visit to Barry Island. Speaking on this week’s new episode of Dish from Waitrose with Nick Grimshaw and Angela Hartnett OBE, he says: “I’ve not seen it yet, but the script is fantastic. I just don’t want to tempt fate]but] I think it’s going to be, I think it’s going to be really good”.

Early this summer, James and Ruth made the announcement that they would be joining forces for their final Gavin and Stacey appearance. Following James’ decision to relocate his family back to Britain after nine years in the States, his Late Late Show and its celeb-approved spin-offs like Carpool Karaoke established a global reputation.

Fans of Smithy and Nessa were not the only ones who were delighted by the news. The original cast included both Sat, who has since appeared in Bad Education, and Joanna Page, who has since played for Stacey. Speaking on the Dish podcast realest tomorrow, Rob says: “Isn’t]it] amazing? And what an absolute dream, you know, to be in something that is so beloved.

” Cause you can be in a hit show, but this… people want. The Christmas special will be broadcast on BBC One. However, it’s entirely up to the people to decide whether it’s the desired happy ending.

In an interview with The Big Issue last month, Ruth and James made the suggestion that Nessa and Smithy’s on-off romance might not go so smoothly. Ruth said:” I keep telling people this finale might not be what you are expecting. And I can assure you that we won’t be visiting again.

Meanwhile James added:” What people are going to see on Christmas Day is the culmination of a 20-year love story, which hopefully shows, if nothing else, that love is complicated and messy and for everyone. “

As for talks of feuds on set, James has also been quick to dismiss speculation. Despite having separate careers, both he and Mat have maintained that there has never been a negative relationship between them. Mat has since claimed that his disapproval of Piers and not his former co-star contributed to his decision to not appear in Life Stories.

Speaking earlier today to promote a BBC documentary about the final episode, James insisted the cast’s friendship was actually the key to Gavin &amp, Stacey’s success. He continued, “I believe the show is primarily about people who like each other and love.”

“It’s about family and friendship. As a group, they have a lot of warmth and love. None of that is faked, that’s all there in our relationships as a cast really. Watching people who get along and fall in love without conflicted is very pure, in my opinion. On Christmas Day, I hope people will feel that.

Rob Brydon is a guest on the newest Dish episode from Waitrose, which is available on all podcast providers starting on December 11.

A tranquil garden room for his home has been granted permission.

However, he is forbidden from snoozing among the flowers and trees. The music legend can now enjoy the tranquility of the property’s bottom where he can listen to the songbirds at the back of his garden.

In a wealthy suburb of north London, The Oasis rocker owns a £4 million fake Tudor mansion that faces woods.

According to planners, “The outbuilding approved shall not be occupied other than for purposes incidental to residential use.” For the avoidance of doubt, the structure shall not be used for sleeping-related needs that one would anticipate being accommodated in the main residence.

They add that the goal is to “make sure that the development does not adversely affect the character of the neighborhood and the amenities of adjacent residential properties.” “The garden room that is hereby approved is constructed using “small diameter piles.” In order to promote visual appeal, the new structure must also protect nearby trees.

The star submitted plans to Haringey Council for a “glazed garden room” that would be two times as big as the current structure.

As he prepares for the long-awaited Oasis reunion next year, it will sit in a shaded area among mature trees and offer him peace and tranquility.

The Mirror reported earlier this year that Liam is also building a wall on the property. He is creating a more secure boundary by replacing a wooden fence and gates. The metre-high brick wall will be constructed by contractors, along with metal security gates.

With planning permission, he is also getting a lot of money for a pool. He confessed to not being able to swim while chatting with mum Peggy, 81, who is a keen swimmer, and son Gene, 23, on C4’s ‘ Celebrity Gogglebox’.

Despite a general rise in real estate values over the years, Katie Price’s Mucky Mansion was sold for less than she had originally paid for it ten years ago.

The glamour model’s mansion, which she bought for £1.35 million, was originally listed for £1.5 million, and it was believed a buyer had been found. However, the sale fell through, and the asking price was slashed by a whopping £150, 000 as a new owner is sought. The property remained unsold, leading to another price reduction.

With its reduced price of £1.15 million, Katie has finally secured a buyer for the property. A Rightmove public notice states that “Mortgageees in possession are now receiving an offer for the sum of £1, 150, 000.”

If the sale proceeds, Katie won’t be reimbursed because she is no longer the property’s owner. After being declared bankrupt for the second time in March, the 46-year-old former glamour model was legally evicted from her sprawling mansion in May. Due to an unpaid tax bill, the TV host was declared bankrupt.

Before being expelled for failing to pay the mortgage, Katie resided in the nine-bedroom home for a while. The lavish property, which sits on 12 acres of land, was the feature of a TV show with the star. In 2014, she purchased the house from Tory grandee Francis Maude.

However, any sale will likely result in the model’s debts being paid off by Sussex home. It’s said Katie owes the taxman £750, 000 and was declared bankrupt for a second time.

The property was severely neglected after Katie moved out. Before it could be listed for sale, the grounds became overgrown, the swimming pool water turned green, and the owners had to haul in piles of trash and leave abandoned cars. According to reports, the property had to be made marketable by clearing over 20 tons of waste.

A renovation in July transformed the mansion, making it unrecognisable compared to its state during Katie’s ownership. The property, originally nicknamed the “Mucky Mansion” due to its disrepair, was a source of frustration for Katie. Because of all the previous events that took place there, she once said, “I absolutely detest the Mucky Mansion, even the way it’s been called the Mucky Mansion.”

Princess Andre, the property’s daughter, previously shared her dislike of the home. Speaking on the show, the then 14-year-old said: “I didn’t really like this house at the start. It was a dark house. It contained so many unpleasant memories. I didn’t even want to walk on the driveway”.

The show centered on Katie’s efforts to transform her 19-room, vandalized, and uninhabitable mansion into a permanent family home. She continued to have financial issues, so it was discontinued after two series.
