How to win SW19: The Wimbledon essentials every tennis-goer needs

Evening Standard5 hours ago

That's right, in case you didn't know, you can absolutely bring your own food and drink into the Wimbledon grounds – including a bottle of wine per person (oh, how we love being British), as well as two canned cocktails or two cans of beer each. Other restrictions apply, including the size and type of bag that you're allowed to house your precious nectar in. And don't even think about bringing a big 'ole bottle of spirit or fortified wine.

Bruce Springsteen reveals why he stayed away from ‘Deliver Me From Nowhere' set during ‘deeply personal' scenes

Bruce Springsteen is reliving his glory days on set. But the singer, 75, got candid on which scenes he stayed away from in Jeremy Allen White's portrayal in the upcoming biopic, 'Deliver Me From Nowhere.' 'If there was a scene coming up that was sometimes really deeply personal, I wanted the actors to feel completely free, and I didn't want to get in the way, and so I would just stay at home,' Springsteen revealed in an interview with Rolling Stone published Thursday. 6 Jeremy Allen White plays Bruce Springsteen in 'Deliver Me From Nowhere.' 20th Century Studios The icon added, 'If Scott Cooper, the director, wanted or needed me there for something, I would try to make it. But I was on tour in Canada for the whole first month or so of the filming, and so I was really out on the road quite a bit and working at that time.' Springsteen went on to praise White, 34, for being 'very, very tolerant of me the days that I would appear on the set,' while also noting the project includes 'some of the most painful days of my life.' While on set, the musician told 'The Bear' star, 'Look, anytime I'm in the way, just give me the look and I'm on my way home. The days that I got out there, he was wonderfully tolerant with me being there. And it was just fun. It was enjoyable.' 6 Jeremy Allen White plays the rocker circa 1982. 20th Century Studios The biopic follows Springsteen's upbringing in Freehold, N.J., and the making of his 1982 album 'Nebraska.' The movie hits theaters Oct. 24 and includes Jeremy Strong as Springsteen's producer and manager, Jon Landau, Stephen Graham as the rocker's father, Douglas, Paul Walter Hauser as Mike Batlan, who created a set-up for Springsteen to record his music in his bedroom, and Marc Maron as Chuck Plotkin, the producer who mastered the songs on the album. When the outlet asked the Grammy winner if he would consider performing 'Nebraska' in order to promote the film, Springsteen wasn't fully on board. 6 White has called the Boss 'just the greatest guy.' 20th Century Studios 'I doubt I'll do it,' he confessed, 'but I could possibly go out and play that record straight through one day. I think that would be fun to do, and the fans would get a kick out of it. That's not off the table.' In October, the Boss appeared on the British chat show 'The Graham Norton Show' where he gushed over the film's 'lovely cast' and told Norton, 62, he's 'involved a little in the project.' 'This is not easy to do because you can't do an imitation, you have to do a personal interpretation,' Springsteen explained about White stepping into his footsteps. 'It's difficult, but he is a great actor and sings pretty good.' 6 Bruce Springsteen and wife Patti Scialfa circa 1991 in New York City. Getty Images During an August interview with GQ, the 'Shameless' alum gushed over the musician being 'really supportive of the film' 'I've had some access to him, and he's just the greatest guy,' he shared. The trailer dropped on Wednesday, and starts with Springsteen looking to buy a new car before the salesman recognizes him. 6 Springsteen praised White as a 'great actor.' Kamala Harris/ YouTube Springsteen replied, 'Well that makes one of us.' Then, the young singer is recording a song in his room, telling the engineer: 'It don't need to be perfect. I want it to feel like I'm in the room by myself.' The clip also shows Landau going to bat for his artist in a room full of music label execs. 'This isn't about either one of us. This isn't about the charts. This is about Bruce Springsteen,' he said. 'And these are the songs that he wants to work on right now.' 6 Bruce Springsteen speaks in concert. AP 'Bruce is a repairman and what he is doing with this album is he's repairing that hole in his floor,' a voiceover noted in the trailer. 'He's repairing that hole in himself. And once he's done that, he's going to repair the entire world.' 'I'm trying to find something in all them worries,' Springsteen added.

‘Finding The Right Balance': Kate Middleton Pulls Out Of Key Royal Event Amid Cancer Recovery

Last Updated: According to Britain's Press Association, the Princess of Wales is working to 'find the right balance' as she resumes public life following her treatment. Kate Middleton, the Princess of Wales, pulled out of attending Royal Ascot, a major fixture in the British royal calendar, as she continues her recovery from cancer, Kensington Palace said. The high-profile racing event, held in Berkshire, is known for its deep royal ties and social significance. While Prince William, King Charles III and Queen Camilla are expected to attend, Kate Middleton will skip the outing to focus on her health. According to Britain's Press Association, the Princess of Wales is working to 'find the right balance" as she resumes public life following her treatment. The five-day gathering features the Royal Procession, where members of the royal family arrive in horse-drawn carriages, followed by races viewed from the exclusive Royal Enclosure, known for its strict formal dress code. In March 2024, Kate Middleton revealed she was undergoing preventative chemotherapy for an undisclosed cancer. She announced in January 2025 that she was in remission but continues to take a cautious approach to public engagements. Kate Middleton has made a handful of public appearances in recent days, including King Charles III's birthday parade and a royal event at St George's Chapel. Her gradual return mirrors that of King Charles, who is also undergoing cancer treatment and recently resumed public duties. First Published: June 18, 2025, 22:51 IST

Lima's Maido named world's top restaurant by 50 Best

[PARIS] Maido, a restaurant in Lima founded by famed chef Mitsuharu 'Micha' Tsumura, was on Thursday named the best eatery in the world for 2025 by the influential but controversial World's 50 Best Restaurants list. Restaurants from three continents occupy the podium of the listing, which was launched by a British press group to compete with France's Michelin red guides. Asador Etxebarri, which offers Basque cooking at Atxondo, Spain, was second and Quintonil in Mexico City was third. The top French restaurant was in eighth place: chef Bruno Verjus's Table in Paris. Maxime Frederic, at the helm of the Cheval Blanc Paris pastry shop and head pastry chef at Plenitude, was named Best Pastry Chef. The 50 Best award has been presented since 2002 by media group William Reed, based on reviews by a thousand 'independent experts' such as chefs, specialist journalists and restaurant owners. The list has been contested above all by French chefs, who accuse it of being clubby and opaque, but it is generally considered to be ahead of the Michelin guide in identifying the latest food trends. Its detractors - French, but also Japanese and American - launched The List in 2015, a ranking of 1,000 restaurants across the world which uses an algorithm to aggregate and analyse data from more than 400 international sources.
