Michael Barrymore diagnosed with epilepsy
Michael Barrymore has been diagnosed with epilepsy. The 73-year-old presenter has revealed he has developed the condition - a neurological disorder that causes recurring seizures due to abnormal electrical activity in the brain - after suffering a mini stroke. In an emotional TikTok video, he revealed: "A mini stroke caused me to develop epilepsy where I have uncontrollable seizures... I suffer from cluster seizures, which affects a quarter of people with epilepsy. It means I have more than one, usually three individual seizures in a short period of time." The former Strike It Lucky host admitted the condition can be "scary" and he is keen to connect with other sufferers. He continued: "It's scary because there's a 40% chance of going into epilepticus which causes brain damage and death without prompt medical attention. "I've had several attacks this year and have emergency medication at home if I go into a seizure. It doesn't really affect my life otherwise, but it would be nice to talk with other sufferers on here about it." The former Celebrity Big Brother runner-up was once one of the UK's most prolific and highest-paid television stars but has seen his TV career dwindle after being embroiled in a police investigation over the death of Stuart Lubbock, who passed away in 2001 aged 31 after attending a pool party at the broadcaster's Essex home. And Michael - who was never charged over the incident - previously claimed TV companies are not interested in hiring "innocent people". He told the Daily Star newspaper: 'It's strange that companies don't employ innocent people. Maybe you have to be guilty to get a job in television, I don't know. From my experience they don't employ innocent people. 'It's unfair, of course. It's terrible. You're supposed to support people. 'You're supposed to support the people that work for you. You're supposed to be caring. Michael admitted that it has 'taken' him more than two decades to 'build up' his confidence since he left television. He said: 'The amount of confidence you need to work the way I did at my peak was phenomenal and that took years to build up. When everything went my confidence was completely smashed. It has taken me 22 years to get that back.'

Federico Chiesa finally has his moment in a Liverpool shirt after a year of waiting
Federico Chiesa earned cult hero status during his maiden campaign at Liverpool. Supporters admired his positivity and commitment, and how he always seemed to be in the thick of the celebrations even when his involvement had been minimal. The song dedicated to him to the tune of 'Sway' by Dean Martin caught on and became one of the anthems of the season as Arne Slot's side celebrated Premier League title glory. But the brutal reality was that his highlights reel was short and not particularly sweet. Over the course of 2024-25, he clocked up just 104 minutes of top-flight action, making just six league appearances. The only league game he started following his £12million move from Juventus last summer was away at Brighton & Hove Albion in May after the title had already been won, when key personnel were given a breather. Injuries hampered Chiesa. Even when he was fit, he was repeatedly overlooked by Slot. He scored in the FA Cup rout of minnows Accrington Stanley and then netted Liverpool's consolation off the bench in the Carabao Cup final defeat to Newcastle United at Wembley. But what he lacked was a truly significant contribution to call his own. The long wait for that elusive moment ended at Anfield on Friday evening. Chiesa hits his goal on Friday night (Robbie Jay Barratt – AMA/Getty Images) On the day Liverpool announced the signing of young Italian defender Giovanni Leoni for an initial fee of £26million, his illustrious fellow countryman finally came to the party. As the clock ticked into the 88th minute, the champions were in serious danger of starting their title defence with a morale-sapping draw, having thrown away a two-goal lead. But when Djordje Petrovic palmed away Mohamed Salah's tantalising cross and Bournemouth failed to clear, Chiesa pounced as he arrowed a volley into the bottom corner from 10 yards out. The outpouring of emotion showed what it meant to him. The Italy international, who had replaced Florian Wirtz six minutes earlier, raced away with his arms outstretched before embarking on a jubilant knee slide towards the corner flag. Finally, 352 days after signing for Liverpool, he had a Premier League goal to his name. 'After the fans sung for him so many times during the game already and last season as well, I think it is very nice for him to give them something in return,' Slot said. 'That's definitely what he did tonight. It was an unbelievable atmosphere in the final minutes. I thought winning the league here would always be more special than winning a home game against Bournemouth, but the last six or seven minutes…wow.' The manner in which Chiesa was mobbed by his team-mates underlined how he's regarded by his peers. He's especially close with the South American duo of Alisson and Alexis Mac Allister, as well as Wataru Endo. However, all of his team-mates admire how he's dealt with adversity since joining Liverpool, and there couldn't have been a more popular goal scorer. 'Fede is an amazing character,' said captain Virgil van Dijk. 'It's reward for all the hard work since he joined the club. He's been unlucky with injuries, but I'm really glad he could be important tonight. It's not been an easy time for him, but we're all here for him. We all know what kind of impact he can have, and I'm really pleased for him that he scored. 'He's had some difficult moments, but he has great qualities. We all love him. He's loved by the fans as well. When he can produce moments like this, it's something we all want to see.' After the final whistle, Chiesa made a beeline for the backroom staff on the touchline who had helped guide him through some tough times. The biggest embraces were reserved for first-team doctor Amit Pannu and performance psychologist Lee Richardson before he rejoined his team-mates on the field. Chiesa told Sky Italia: 'I arrived here and had a lot of difficulty because the tempo is just so different, but after a year, I finally got my first Premier League goal. The coach gave me a chance and always had words of encouragement for me.' Liverpool's frontline has been revamped this summer. The tragic loss of Diogo Jota was followed by the sales of Luis Diaz and Darwin Nunez. The expectation was that Chiesa would also move on, but for all the rumours about a possible return to Italy, Liverpool haven't received one serious offer. One of those competing with Chiesa for a spot, Hugo Ekitike, became only the second player to both score and assist on his Premier League debut for the club after Nunez against Fulham three years ago. He looks set to be a massive asset. However, given the ongoing uncertainty surrounding the club's pursuit of Newcastle United's Alexander Isak, Liverpool should be keeping hold of Chiesa as cover. Offloading him at this stage of the window would make little sense. He should be given the opportunity to build on this. 'I have no reason to believe something is going to change,' insisted Slot. 'He had a hard time last season, getting his match fitness ready. Unfortunately for him, he missed out on our Asia tour as well, so then you miss quite a lot. Federico, when we needed him, I brought him in. At 2-2, you need your No 9, we brought him in and he delivered, and that's always positive for your future at the club.' Jota's family were in attendance at Anfield as a large banner unfurled on the Kop read: 'Rute, Dinis, Duarte, Mafalda — Anfield will always be your home. You'll Never Walk Alone.' Liverpool's forever No 20 was celebrated in song before, during and after the contest. This summer wasn't the first time Chiesa has had to come to terms with the loss of a much-loved team-mate. Back in 2018, he was part of the Fiorentina squad mourning the death of Davide Astori at the age of 31. 'My first thought after the goal was for Diogo, his brother and their family,' Chiesa told Sky Italia. 'It was such a touching evening, so finishing the game like that was very emotional. Diogo helped me from up there, pushing the ball over the line. That's how I want to believe it went.' A tearful Salah applauding the Kop post-match () The most poignant scenes of the night involved Salah. The Egyptian had earlier extended his remarkable record of scoring in opening round fixtures with Liverpool's fourth goal in stoppage time, becoming the first player in Premier League history to score 10 opening day goals. But it was a moment after the game that stood out. A tearful Salah stood applauding on his own in front of the Kop as the Jota song continued post-match. It felt like part of the grieving process. Chiesa certainly viewed this as staking a claim for a bigger part rather than signing off in style. 'We will talk to Liverpool, but to be perfectly honest, I am happy here,' he added. 'I am playing for one of the best teams in the world. I just have to wait and be ready as I was tonight, and prove that I can play for this team. The coach has treated me very well.'

It's the subject of a new Netflix documentary 'The Truth About Jussie Smollett?' streaming on Friday, Aug. 22. The ordeal stretched on for years and in November the Illinois Supreme Court overturned Smollett's conviction on charges of staging a racist and homophobic attack against himself in 2019 and lying to Chicago police. The trailer for the doc, which includes interviews with journalists, lawyers, investigators and law enforcement, teases a new sit-down interview with Smollett himself. — Swedish filmmaker Lasse Hallström takes audiences on a romantic journey through Europe with an American girl (Madelyn Cline) and a New Zealander (KJ Apa) in 'The Map That Leads to You,' streaming on Prime Video on Wednesday. It's based on the 2017 J.P. Monninger novel. — AP Film Writer Lindsey Bahr New music to stream from Aug. 18-24 — On Friday, Migos rapper Offset will release his third solo album, 'Kiari.' The title is his legal name — a direct reflection of the album he described to The Associated Press earlier this month as 'a look in the mirror.' He said it's a collection of 'different versions of Offset, which comes from Kiari … I'm always trying to rebrand and recreate.' Start with 'Bodies,' a red-hot collaboration that marries Offset's melodic, aggressive flow and the dexterous lyricist JID atop a sample of nu-metal band Drowning Pool's 2001 cut 'Bodies.' It's become a 2025 Billboard Hot 100 hit for a reason. — Who would've thought, nearly 40 years after their formation, that the California shoegaze-y nu-metal band Deftones would become more popular than ever before? They've found new and nostalgic audiences online and have quickly become recognized as one of the most influential bands of the 2000s — 20 years after the fact. On Friday, they will release a new album 'Private Music.' And they sound as tight as ever. — AP Music Writer Maria Sherman New series to stream from Aug. 18-24 — The Amanda Knox trial gets dramatized in a Hulu series called 'The Twisted Tale of Amanda Knox.'

The case becomes a media sensation and Knox is called Foxy Knoxy — among other things — by the tabloids. The series also shares more of the story of Raffaele Sollecito, Knox's boyfriend at the time, who was also convicted of the murder.

Rudy's first big case pits him against the big, fancy law firm that let him go — and his girlfriend who still works there. — Alicia Rancilio New video games to play from Aug. 18-24 — You don't see many surfboards in video games — most virtual riders would rather pick up a skateboard or snowboard. The 'hoversword' at the heart of Sword of the Sea pushes back at that bias by combining all three. It throws in the ability to surf on sand, which is helpful given that your world is essentially one big desert. Your character, the Wraith, is exploring ancient ruins in search of long-lost artifacts. Master the right techniques and you get to surf on actual water. Publisher Giant Squid is led by Matt Nava, who was the art director on the 2012 indie classic Journey, and Sword of the Sea shares that game's meditative vibe. Hang 10 on Tuesday on PlayStation 5 or PC. — Lou Kesten
