TV tonight: a vital film about young people in Gaza
9pm, BBC Two
A teenager narrates this absolutely vital film about what life has been like for young people in Gaza since 7 October 2023. Abdullah, 13, is incisive, quick on his feet and at times alarmingly indifferent as he shows the horrors around him. We also meet cooking TikToker Renad, 10, who stops whisking when a bomb hits nearby: 'We're not afraid, we're used to it.' And Zakaria, 11, who dreams of being a paramedic, is determined to 'find a way to fit in' by helping casualties; it is a relief to see him enjoy a moment in the sea. Most haunting still, following news of Donald Trump's intentions for Gaza, are Renad's words after the ceasefire is announced: 'If Gaza goes back to how it was before, I'll stay for sure.'

Gogglebox Malone stars left 'heartbroken' after death of beloved family member The Malone family announced the death of a beloved member of their family on Saturday Gogglebox: Jenny wishes herself a Happy Birthday The Malone family were devastated as they announced a beloved member of their household has died. The fan-favourite family, made up of mum Julie, dad Tom, and sons Tom Jr, and Shaun, have been a staple on Gogglebox since 2014. In a heartbreaking new update on Saturday (June 7), the family revealed that one of their dogs, Bob, had passed away. On Instagram, Julie posted a series of photographs of Bob over the years, alongside the caption: "Today we said goodbye to our beautiful protective Bobby, he spent his last day doing what he loved, watching over the grandchildren playing in the garden. We are heartbroken. RIP our beautiful Big Bob." Tom Jr, who left the Channel 4 show back in 2021, paid homage to Bob, saying: "Good boy Bob... Rest easy big man," reports the Express. The Malone family joined Gogglebox back in 2014 (Image: Channel 4 ) Article continues below Shaun also expressed his grief, stating: "Today is the day we had to say goodbye to big bob, absolute great dog like a big cuddly bear." Their loss was met with an outpouring of support from fellow Gogglebox stars and fans alike. Gogglebox's Ellie Warner offered her sympathies, commenting: "So sorry to hear about Bobby. Run free over the rainbow bridge," while her sister Izzy said: "Sending you all lots of love." A fan added: "I'm so sorry. It never gets easier. It's so hard losing all the most beautiful little souls. They are children. You'll meet again at the rainbow bridge." A fourth person similarly shared: "So sorry to hear of Bobby's passing. Sending lots of love and hugs."

Back in February, Tom Sr also aroused worry from fans after he shared a picture of himself in a hospital gown and with his arm in a sling. The image featured the Channel 4 star propped up in bed, nursing what seemed to be a shoulder injury covered by a large bandage, while he glanced at the affected area. Article continues below Despite the worry caused, Tom kept his spirits high with a caption that read: "Woke up with a nappy as a dressing, was caught off guard when the nurse said she had to change my nappy! Grateful to our NHS, top notch care Thank you, home now!" Gogglebox airs Friday nights at 9pm on Channel 4

Brits have been chopping peppers wrong and the correct way only takes seconds
A TikToker just humbled all UK households by revealing the best, most convenient and quickest way to cut a bell pepper, and it doesn't take more than five seconds. Whether they're red, green or yellow, bell peppers are a must-have in the kitchen as they work for a variety of dishes. But, it seems you've been cutting it wrong this entire time, and this genius hack will make it so much easier. Peppers are widely available in all UK supermarkets and local stores and they're known for their sweet flavour and for being a good source of vitamins and minerals. Interestingly, the UK imports their pepper from Vietnam, followed by India, France, Spain and China. When it comes to cutting fruits and vegetables, every cook has its way to do so. However, peppers tend to take a little longer because of their amount of seeds. But don't worry, there's a solution for everything, and it won't take you more than five seconds. The best way to cut a bell pepper According to a TikToker, you'll spend less time cutting peppers using this life-changing trick. The content creator, whose name is Trace Alexander, posted a video showing six simple food hacks, including strawberries, spinach, chia seeds, and, of course, peppers. Gathering thousands of views, likes and comments, Trace is known for sharing kitchen life-hacks, recipes and viral trends. With a current 2.4 million following on his TikTok, he's also accumulated 136.9 million likes throughout his videos. In the short clip, Trace takes a freshly vibrant red pepper and puts it on the chopping board. He then cuts off the bottom and the top, effortlessly slicing the side and cleaning up the guts. He then places the seedless pepper on the board and begins to cut it horizontally leaving him with a fair amount. As per his genius cutting method, he said: 'I would recommend though to keep rolling the pepper down and then chop away.' How long do bell peppers last in the fridge? If you've got any leftovers, you can store bell peppers in the fridge. According to Eating Well, they can last up to five days when stored properly. Freshly store-bought peppers can last up to one to two weeks in the crisper drawer and not in other areas, as the crisper drawer is the warmest area of the fridge. However, don't wash them before storing them, as it can lead to faster spoilage. By following this simple trick, you'll be spending less time cutting peppers by avoiding the load of the intense amount of seeds getting stuck on the vegetable.
