Ranvir kicked things off by pointing out, "You know what, you used to live in a caravan before all of this, and now, just a few years later, you've bought this enormous house. You're a great British success story, Josie!"

Woman visits TK Maxx for shopping trip and is blown away by what she found
A woman couldn't believe her eyes while she was shopping in a TK Maxx and suddenly came across a discontinued item that retails for £300 - and people are now rushing to see if they can find it Shoppers are rushing to TK Maxx after one woman spotted a discontinued but well-loved perfume hiding in plain sight on a shelf. TK Maxx is known for selling bargain items at a discounted rate. Known as TJ Maxx in the US, the chain opened its first store in the UK in 1994, but with the name TK Maxx. The name change was done to avoid confusion with the unrelated British retail chain T.J. Hughes. Since then, it's continued to be a popular store among brits wanting to bargain hunt, as over 450 TK Maxx and Homesense stores have opened across the UK. The store is just as popular in the US. One of its many fans is Crys, who often takes to her TikTok account to share the fun and unique things she finds in the store. However, as she was doing her rounds one day, she quickly stopped in her tracks and started filming as she couldn't believe the items she found. Taking to TikTok, she shared how happy she was to find the discontinued Taylor Swift perfume, Wonderstruck, available on the shelf. "Just browsing the perfume section at TJ Maxx when I come across..." she wrote on the video as the camera moved to show the different perfumes available. She then stopped on the purple patterned box that contained the perfume, which was initially released in October 2011. However, it was later discontinued for an unknown reason. It's currently being resold on eBay for over £25-£350, with fans still being nostalgic of the smell. "Immediately added to the cart," Crys wrote on the video as she was seen placing it in her shopping cart. She went on to write in the caption of the video: "When you find THE Taylor Swift perfume at @TJMaxx! never smelled it before so I can't wait to try." The perfume in question is described online to smell sweet and fruity, with raspberry, blackberry, tea, apple blossom and freesia being the top notes, mixed in with middle notes of vanilla, honeysuckle, and hibiscus, as well as base notes of peach, sandalwood, amber, and musk. In a follow-up video posted on the same day, she went on to reveal the TJ Maxx sticker, which showed she bought it for £5.99 ($7.99). The video soon racked up over 213,500 views, with many people taking to the comments to share their thoughts. "That's £2,000 in your hand right now," one person commented. Meanwhile, a second person said: "I miss this smell!!!" "Wait not even kidding this exact thing happened to me like 5 years ago and I got it," a third person shared. "Omg I loved that perfume," another person said. However, another questioned: "Okay so either they're selling incredibly expired products which is illegal OR wonderstruck is still being made?? Which is it."

Russell T Davies blames Reform and Trump for decline in UK gay rights
Russell T Davies has said gay rights are 'rapidly and urgently getting worse' thanks to the rise of Reform UK and the influence of the Trump presidency on British politics. The award-winning screenwriter, who is best known for reviving Doctor Who and writing Queer As Folk, said the LGBT community should be 'revolting in terror and anger and action' in response to growing support for Reform, which has pledged to 'ban transgender ideology' in schools. Speaking to the Big Issue, Davies said: 'When Queer As Folk came out in 1999, if you'd said: 'What will gay rights be like in 2025?', we'd have said: 'Oh, it will all be marvellous – it'll be sunshine and skipping down the street, hand in hand – gays, queers, lesbians, everyone.' 'And look at where we are. Things got better but now things are rapidly and urgently getting worse. 'What happens in America always happens here, and as we look down the barrel of a Reform government, we, the gay community, queer community, should be revolting in terror and anger and action.' Reform has promised to ban what it called 'transgender ideology' in schools within its first 100 days of government. According to the party's manifesto, its education policies include plans for a 'patriotic' curriculum, tax relief of 20% on private schools and cuts to funding for universities 'that undermine free speech'. It has also pledged to replace the Equality Act and said it would scrap diversity, equality and inclusion rules. Davies also said Trump was 'literally out to get us' and 'would be happier with us invisible and gone, defunded, completely invisible if not biologically altered' to become as straight as him. The Doctor Who showrunner called on the younger generation of LGBT people to organise and fight back against the rhetoric and policies that have emerged on the hard right of British politics. 'I hope they're prepared to fight, that younger generation that has no idea how they got there. And neither should they; they're busy living their lives. I didn't spend my youth looking back at World War Two. But I do think: 'Are you prepared to fight? Because a fight is coming.'' Davies's next Channel 4 series, Tip Toe, deals with the culture war that has radicalised some people into homophobia, transphobia and prejudice. Channel 4 has said the show will look at 'the most corrosive forces facing the LGBTQ+ community today, examining the danger as prejudice creeps back into our lives'. Davies said: 'It's radical, it's savage, and it's hilarious. It is the strongest thing I've written. I do believe Queer As Folk, Cucumber, It's A Sin and Tip Toe are the ones that will be on my gravestone.' Sign up to First Edition Our morning email breaks down the key stories of the day, telling you what's happening and why it matters after newsletter promotion Reform UK has been contacted for comment. Davies said earlier this year that gay society was in the greatest danger he had ever seen after Trump's presidential election triumph. 'As a gay man, I feel like a wave of anger, and violence, and resentment is heading towards us on a vast scale,' he said. 'I've literally seen a difference in the way I'm spoken to as a gay man since that November election, and that's a few months of weaponising hate speech, and the hate speech creeps into the real world. 'I'm not being alarmist. I'm 61 years old. I know gay society very, very well, and I think we're in the greatest danger I have ever seen.' In April, he also hit back at claims Doctor Who was too woke. 'Someone always brings up matters of diversity,' he said. 'And there are online warriors accusing us of diversity and wokeness and involving messages and issues. 'And I have no time for this. I don't have a second to bear [it]. Because what you might call diversity, I just call an open door.'
