Small Welsh music festival falls foul of Coachella copyright complaint
Steps star Ian "H" Watkins has said it was 'mindblowing' that Coachella asked for his small Welsh festival to change its name. The social media accounts for Cowchella, held in Cowbridge, Wales, were taken down, and its Eventbrite tickets page altered after a complaint that Watkins claims came from Coachella Ltd - the company behind the US festival in California. New social media accounts have been created for the renamed Moo-La-La Festival, which will be hosted by Watkins, actress Claire Sweeney, and BBC Radio 2 presenter Owain Wyn Evans. An announcement was made on social media regarding the "fab new name," assuring ticket holders that their purchases would still be valid for the inaugural event in August. Welsh singer and actor Watkins, 49, told the PA news agency that they thought at first the social media sites were 'hacked', before finding an email with an 'official complaint from Coachella'. 'I'm taking it as a massive compliment that they feel like that our little festival is a little bit of a threat to their ginormous, juggernaut of a machine,' Watkins said. 'It's a little bit mindblowing… what we're doing is very, very different to what they do. 'We don't have Beyonce performing. We have a Steps tribute act… and also, they don't have myself, Claire Sweeney and Owain Wyn Evans, hosting, which in my book, is much better than Beyonce.' He also said he was happy the small Welsh festival is a 'talking point' and people 'love that Coachella has put Cowbridge on the map' as well as admitting that 'luckily, it wasn't like, the week before because that would be the disaster'. Watkins did acknowledge that thousands of pounds spent on 'marketing costs, posters and banners' would be 'a financial impact that we have to absorb'. He said: 'We've spent a lot of money on marketing and flyers and posters and banners that are all visible around the town. 'So yes, those will have to go in the bin… but let's just do that, rather than have any more people knocking on our door.' He also said that 'there's lots of festivals' that use this concept including the Welsh event GlastonBarry, with a name inspired by Glastonbury in Somerset, which has not appeared to come up against the same issue. Watkins said the idea of the festival formerly known as Cowchella was to 'make it accessible for families that can't afford to go to Cardiff or London' for music events that can cost hundreds of pounds. 'We wanted… to provide an amazing place where everybody could come have a great time, make it family friendly, accessible,' he said. He said the festival will remain the same, despite the name change, and promised 'great food, great drink' on Saturday, August 2 at Bear Field. Watkins also highlighted 'the number one tribute acts in the country' such as Harry Styled UK, Got to be Taylor Swift, Got to be Steps, Got to be Mamma Mia and Wickedly Hariana would perform. 'Our town is so beautiful, but there's so much untapped potential there, which is why we keep creating events (such as Pride),' he said. 'We do the panto in town, so many amazing things. I decorate the town hall for armistice. I do a lot in the town just to bring a lot of joy, and it's a town that should be celebrated, and that's what Moo-La-La, as it's now called, will be.' Watkins rose to fame in the the dance-pop group, Steps, and has appeared on ITV show Dancing On Ice as well as mystery Dial M For Middlesbrough. His group celebrated 20 years since their formation with a comeback album and UK tour in 2017 and in 2022 they released a Platinum Collection album.

Sky's 'lowest price is back' as TV, Netflix and broadband at an all time low in payday sale
Sky has brought back a popular TV and broadband deal that's slashes prices to their 'lowest ever' in an surprise pay day sale. Just weeks after ending its Easter sale, Sky has once again discounted its Essential TV and Full Fibre 300 broadband bundle to £35 per month and is offering 300Mbps fibre broadband for the price of 150Mbps. Sky said 'our lowest ever price is back' as it announced the sale, which also sees the Ultimate TV and Full Fibre 300 broadband bundle, with more than 35 extra channels, reduced to £39. Typically, Sky's Full Fibre 300 costs £29 per month without any TV access, but the latest deals also grant access to more than 100 channels, including Sky Atlantic, Sky Sports News and major free-to-air channels like BBC, ITV and Channel 4. The combined packages also come with free Netflix and Discovery+ subscriptions, with the option to add Sky Cinema and Sky Sports for an additional £10 and £20 respectively. All of this is delivered via Sky Stream, the brand's new device that provides TV and streaming access through WiFi instead of a traditional satellite dish. Sky is now among the providers to adopt the new One Touch Switch scheme, which means customers don't have to contact their existing broadband provider to complete the switch. Rather, Sky will handle the necessary procedures on behalf of the customer. It's crucial to note that to benefit from the lower rates, customers must commit to a two-year contract, and Sky has indicated that the price for their TV and broadband packages 'may change' during this time. This includes the expected yearly price increase in April, a common practice among many companies, reports the Mirror. Earlier this year, a 6.2% rise was added to the cost of Sky's TV and broadband plans, which could suggest we'll see a similar change in April 2026. Nevertheless, Sky distinguishes itself by allowing consumers the chance to end their contracts early should a price increase be announced. Sky's latest promotional efforts rival Virgin's Bigger Combo bundle, which provides more than 200 channels and a 362Mbps fibre broadband connection at £34.99. Whilst this comes in just under Sky's price and promises around 60Mbps additional speed, it lacks Sky Atlantic and Netflix, which might turn some potential customers away. Amongst its competitors is the BT and EE Big Entertainment and Full Fibre 300, currently marketed at £48.99 per month for the initial six months but eventually exceeding £600 more across the length of the plan as it reverts to the regular £63.99. Sky customers have shared their positive experiences of the company on Trustpilot, where one glowing review said: "Sky Stream is a game changer. "Switched a few weeks back and it's the best decision I've ever made. Installation takes care of itself, the remote even auto-tunes itself to the TV. The best part is the ability to have a single charge for all your streaming subscriptions." This review offered a more mixed review, saying: "I wasn't happy with the service provided by Sky, phoned up to change my deal and was passed around like a parcel. Eventually, I got to speak to someone who knew what they were doing. I am happy my issue was finally resolved, but it took a lot of work." But this happy customer said: "I've been with lots of companies to get my TV and internet but the best service I have received out of them all is Sky. We changed to other companies because of the price but always go back to Sky."
