Who will go into the final leg of this race in pole position? As the penultimate episode of this delightful travelogue begins, it's very close – but it's at least as much about the journey as the arrival. As they head for Goa, the teams enjoy a safari in Gir national park. Phil Harrison

Springboks and Japan to play first rugby match at Wembley in nine years

South Africa are set to face Japan at Wembley Stadium during their autumn international series, in the first rugby fixture to be played at the London venue since 2016. The match will be a replay of the famous 'Miracle of Brighton', when Eddie Jones ' Japan side beat the Springboks 34-32 in the 2015 Rugby World Cup, in one of international rugby's biggest upsets and a first-ever South African defeat to a Tier 2 side. The clash on Saturday 1 November will be the side's fourth meeting, after that memorable World Cup encounter and two South Africa wins in 2019. Jones, now back in charge of the Brave Blossoms after stints with England and Australia, said: 'The game in Brighton 10 years ago changed rugby in Japan from being a minor sport to a boom sport. 'Playing against the Boks is the dream of every young Japanese player.' The Springboks begin their end-of-year tour with the Wembley fixture, the first since they and the Barbarians played out a 31-31 draw in 2016. South Africa then play France in Paris the following week, the first official Test of the window, before travelling to Italy, Ireland and Wales on a five-match tour spanning the month. 'We are delighted to be starting off our tour of the Northern Hemisphere with a match against Japan at the iconic Wembley Stadium,' Springboks head coach Rassie Erasmus said. 'The Brave Blossoms are renowned for playing fast, attacking, high-tempo rugby – which has been prevalent in our last two encounters, before and during the Rugby World Cup in Japan in 2019.'

Tommy Fury reveals he lost major brand deal over cheating allegations

Tommy Fury has claimed that he lost major brand deal over when he was accused of being unfaithful to fellow Love Islander Molly-Mae Tommy Fury has claimed that he lost major brand deals when he was accused of cheating on Molly-Mae Hague. The boxer, 26, struck up a relationship with Molly Mae, also 26, on the set of Love Island in 2019 and they became parents to daughter Bambi, now two, in the years that followed. ‌ After finding success on the ITV dating show, Molly Mae and Tommy signed numerous brand deals, with Tommy earning a fortune from the likes of M&S, Aldi and The Gym Group whilst Molly famously became creative director at Pretty Little Thing. ‌ They were even set to tie the knot but thing started to go awry in 2024 when Molly Mae announced that they had called it quits. Rumours quickly swirled that Tommy had been unfaithful towards Molly Mae, even though he slammed these as 'complete and utter bulls***' in interviews. ‌ READ MORE: Tommy Fury and Molly-Mae split - what really went on with those 'cheating' claims? But in the third episode of his new BBC docuseries, titled Tommy: The Good, The Bad. The Fury, Tommy reveals that that the tumultuous time lost him work. He admits: "The phone did go quiet..." His manager added: "I even had a brand yesterday, that I was speaking to over the weekend that we've worked with before. They said, 'We really want to work with Tommy but we're a bit concerned about how this plays out.'" The sports star damaged his hand early last year, and he was left unable to train. He turned to drink after hitting "rock bottom" and this was when things started to come crashing down for the couple amid their very public personal lives. Molly Mae moved out of their family home as Tommy grappled with his drinking struggles. 'I had enough drink to last me a lifetime in 2024,' he confessed. "Suddenly, one day, you find that all you can do is sit down and then a few of them (drinks), it takes the pain away. You forget where you are, you forget what's going on. And sometimes you want that feeling all the time, and that's where obviously it starts." ‌ Tommy admitted: 'Now, when I look at that person from back then, I don't even recognise that guy. It's just not me. Back then, I didn't really care about anything. It was like the world going by, wasn't bothered, and that's just not me.' The boxer hasn't cut drink out of his life, but said he is now barely touching alcohol. 'Going forward, if it's a wedding or something like that, I might have a couple of drinks. Four or five times a week is something nobody should be doing," he said. Tommy recalled: 'I woke up one morning and everything was gone, Molly and the baby had gone. That was the moment I thought, 'wow, what's going on?' And that was the moment where I just started to try and change things around.' But things came full circle for the couple, and Molly-Mae recently decided to take Tommy back, and the pair have been rekindling their romance and life with Bambi under the same roof. However, it was her upping and leaving that really got Tommy into shape.

Emmerdale reveals what clue Mack finds about John that exposes ITV soap killer

Emmerdale's latest episode has revealed what Mackenzie Boyd finds out about John Sugden that leads to him exposing his killer crime, amid the arrival of Ben on the ITV soap There is a major twist airing on Wednesday's Emmerdale, as confirmed in the early release episode on ITVX. Mackenzie Boyd makes a jaw-dropping discovery about John Sugden that changes everything. ‌ For those who have seen the episode, or seen the spoilers, it's revealed Mack has found a clue about John that means his lies are exposed. Now, we know exactly what that clue is and why it is so significant. ‌ It comes after it was reported that Mack would be killed off in a devastating twist, with actor Lawrence Robb leaving the role after five years. Now it seems we know what leads to Mack being John's possible next victim. ‌ With Mack and wife Charity Dingle hitting the rocks over the surrogacy plot – as Mack is not even aware that she's cheated on him with Ross Barton which has sparked a new DNA twist, Mack was kicked out of their home. Spoilers had confirmed Mack would end up in John's van and it would lead to him uncovering something. Finding a clue, a panicked Mack will rumble John - no doubt paving the way for a showdown if he is to die or be his next victim. Nothing has been confirmed for this just yet, while fans fear this is where Mack's flashforward will come into play. The clip that first aired in December showed him frantically running through the woods as if he's being chased. So to see Mack wearing the same outfit for the clue discovery left fans sure this would be the moment it all comes crashing down for Mack. Now Wednesday's episode aired the moment the clue is found, leaving us with a brutal cliffhanger. With that we know what the clue is and what it means, with John's secret link to another character now known by Mack. We've chosen to reveal the clue below, but do be warned there are spoilers ahead. The rest of this article will contain details from Wednesday's episode that is now on ITVX but it doesn't air on ITV1 until 7:30pm on Wednesday night. ‌ If you don't want to find out what happens, now is your time to look away. The episode, at the very end, sees Mack uncover something truly jaw-dropping, linked to a scene earlier in the episode. Mack is looking through a scrapbook from John's army days, where he spots a photo of John with a pal named Ben. Mack is shocked as the Ben in the photo is none other than the Ben he met in the shop earlier that day. ‌ He realised Ben is the mystery removal man who had come to collect Nate Robinson's belongings from his wife Tracy, weeks before it was revealed Nate was dead. Now, it was known after the murder came to light that Nate could not have organised the collection, having been dead for months. So knowing Nate's killer was very likely the person who organised this collection, Mack was stunned to hear Ben claim Owen, the man John has framed for Nate's murder, as the man who he met and gave the items to. So when Mack sees the picture of Ben and John together, realising they are close and knowing that John had visited Owen right before his death, it all seemed to fall into place. Mack looked truly horrified as the realisation hit him that John and Ben knew each other. But has he also realised that Ben and John were in cahoots, and therefore John is the killer of Nate?
