ARM AND A LEGO Tobi's prosthetic arm features pictures of Lego blocks and two real ones he can stick other pieces to Published: 23:20, A YOUNG lad tries out his new prosthetic arm — made with a Lego design and some real blocks. Tobi, eight, had the limb created specially for him at the Portsmouth Enablement Centre. 3 3 He has been a visitor to the unit since he was just six months old to help with his underdeveloped arm. The team works with patients to personalise designs using lamination techniques. Tobi's features pictures of Lego blocks and two real ones he can stick other pieces to. Mum Debra said: 'The care he receives is phenomenal. "They really listen to what Tobi wants and do everything they can to make it happen. "His new Lego-themed arm has been amazing - not only is it helping with everyday tasks, but he loves showing it off. "Most importantly, the team always makes sure Tobi feels included every step of the way. "We couldn't ask for better care, and we're so thankful for everything they do." Lucy Riddle, Prosthetics Clinical Manager at PEC, added: "Every device we make is bespoke. "We work closely with each individual to ensure not only a comfortable fit, but also a design that reflects their personality. Astonishing footage shows world's first prosthetic hand controlled by magnets help amputee move 'simply by thinking' "Both are equally important to a person's confidence and wellbeing. "Our technicians enjoy being creative, whether it's crafting limbs with superhero designs or incorporating family photos, and the biggest reward is seeing the difference it makes to someone's life." 3

Netflix star left in agony with broken leg after terrifying bike accident

NETFLIX and Skins star Sebastian de Souza has shared photos from his hospital bed after getting into a serious bike accident. The 32-year-old actor – who has appeared in The Life List, Medici, Normal People and The Great – posted his update via his Instagram account. 7 7 Despite the nasty injury, breaking his leg, Sebastian made light of the situation, posing in his bed and later down the pub with a pint, while still in his medical gown. He wrote: 'New Hair! New Normal! Dear Souzles, forgive the radio silence! Three weeks ago I broke my leg falling off my bike.' He credited 'very very kind people' who helped get him to St Mary's Hospital in Paddington, as well as the team who looked after him once at A&E. 'You know who you are and I will never be able to repay you,' he commented. Praising the 'extraordinary team', he said: 'the gorgeous paramedics, doctors, nurses, domestic and administrative staff, all of whom made me feel so welcome and comfortable and safe. 'As it turned out, I had a tibial plateau fracture (more commonly known as bike leg) and needed an operation.' 'St Mary's is one of the best trauma centres on planet earth and so, naturally, there were lots of poor people with injuries far graver than mine queuing up for operations that needed doing quickly, which meant my mangled knee would have to wait a little bit before getting patched up,' he continued. 'And so it was that I ended up spending the most wonderful, inspiring, insightful, love-filled fortnight on St Mary's Valentine Ellis and Zachary Cope wards, waiting for my surgery!' Sebastian noted: 'I have never been treated with such kindness, care, respect, sensitivity and love, nor have I ever seen such professionalism and compassion shown so consistently by anyone to everyone, ever.' 'Thank God for @nhsengland @nhsenglandldn,' he said. 'As far as I'm concerned the NHS is the greatest institution ever invented and should be supported, protected and celebrated at all costs. Forever.' 7 7 Apologising for the long message, Sebastian went on to praise his family and friends for supporting him 'through this fascinating new chapter'. Friends and fans were quick to send the actor their well wishes, with Sarah Parish joking: 'Darling!!! You poor love. I hope you gave your best Leslie Phillips from 'Carry on Nurse'' Another added: 'You 'll bounce back in no time Sending you lots of love' While a fan account for The Life List wrote: 'My sincerest wishes for a speedy recovery to you, beloved Sebastian!' 7 7 7

Katherine Ryan left 'shocked' as she reveals some celebrity guests on her podcast are secret 'crackheads'

Katherine Ryan was shocked to learn some former celebrity guests on her What's My Age Again? podcast were 'crackheads' after opening up about their dark past. The comedian, 41, revealed 'so many celebs' - especially nineties stars - have been admitted to smoking crack cocaine. It seems the stars were more than happy to 'overshare' about their past, leaving host Katherine stunned of the unknown fact. According to The Sun, Katherine said at London's SXSW festival: 'I love people who overshare, it does not surprise me. 'Now people stop me on the street to tell me about their divorces. But I was shocked to learn we had crackheads on the podcast. We had so many celebs, especially famous in the Nineties, who would abuse, and bounce back.' From A-list scandals and red carpet mishaps to exclusive pictures and viral moments, subscribe to the DailyMail's new Showbiz newsletter to stay in the loop. The podcast is described as 'a refreshing and humorous take on ageing, wellness, and self-discovery'. It features interviews with some of the UK's most famous faces, who have all undergone a blood test to determine an accurate reflection of their biological age, as opposed to their chronological age. Each week, Katherine and her guests are also joined by Dr Nichola Conlon, a specialist in longevity and cellular ageing, who interprets the test results. Katherine recently revealed she's turning her back on filler as she discussed ageing in her podcast in April. She admitted that she thinks once you're 'over 40 the filler has to go' as it 'ages you more.' She recalled: 'I was on TV before I realised you don't go on TV without Botox. I get everything (Botox) and there's nothing I don't do. 'I think I definitely dabbled in a bit of filler before and then I had a photoshoot for a podcast I was doing back in the day.' Katherine added: 'I think physical age like what we're talking about, the Botox and filler, it has to go - it ages you even more.' She admitted that she thinks once you're 'over 40 the filler has to go' as it 'ages you more' The podcast is described as 'a refreshing and humorous take on ageing, wellness, and self-discovery' Elsewhere in the podcast episode, the comedian joked that when she reaches 80, she will 'be doing MDMA'. She said: 'I've got a lot of plans for my elderly age. When I am chronologically 80, if I am by the grace of God, I will be doing MDMA for the first time.' Other future guests set to join Katherine's brand new podcast include Olivia Attwood, Romesh Ranganathan, Adam Buxton, Jill Scott, Bryony Gordon, Dame Sheila Hancock, Sophie Ellis Bextor, Alastair Campbell and Dame Denise Lewis. The podcast has premiered on all major platforms, including Rayo, Spotify, Apple Podcasts, and Google Podcasts. Lucie Cave, Bauer Media Audio's Chief Creative Officer said: 'We are absolutely thrilled to welcome What's My Age Again? to our podcast family. 'Katherine has always had a unique ability to blend humour with meaningful conversation, and this podcast takes that to a whole new level. 'The concept of measuring glycolic age rather than biological age is groundbreaking, and with Katherine's wit and her celebrity guests, we believe it will be an engaging, entertaining, and educational experience for listeners. 'It's truly a perfect match, and I know listeners are going to love this innovative new show.'
