Amanda Knox working with Monica Lewinsky on latest docudrama about her life
Monica Lewinsky and Amanda Knox are collaborating on a new Hulu docudrama titled The Twisted Tale of Amanda Knox, which premieres on Wednesday. Both women serve as producers on the series, which explores Knox's relentless fight to prove her innocence and reclaim her freedom. Lewinsky stated she saw in Knox "another young woman who had suffered in the media, had been feasted on, on the world stage," highlighting their shared experience of intense public scrutiny. Knox was wrongfully imprisoned for four years in Italy after being convicted of the 2007 murder of her flatmate, Meredith Kercher, a conviction later overturned due to errors in the forensic investigation. Knox identifies with a group she calls "The Sisterhood," comprising women subjected to excessive media speculation, and has since advocated for others behind bars.

Gran's £3k Disneyland Paris dream trip ends in tears after tickets cancelled in admin blunder
Sue Batters was enjoing the final day of her holiday with her family when they were denied into the theme park. A grandmother says her 'once-in-a-lifetime' Disney holiday turned into a nightmare after an admin blunder left her family stranded outside the theme park. Sue Batters, 68, spent more than £3,000 to treat her t wo daughters and five grandsons to a three-day break in Disneyland Paris, only for their park tickets to be suddenly cancelled without warning. The trip, booked with London-based Times and Travels UK, was meant to cover everything – Eurostar travel, a hotel stay, and tickets to both Disneyland and Walt Disney Studios. For Sue, from Avery Way, Allhallows, on the Hoo Peninsula, it was a dream holiday she had saved up for, determined to give her family a magical experience, report s the Mirror. But on the final day of their May trip, as the group tried to enter Walt Disney Studios Park, their tickets stopped working. Staff told them their passes had been cancelled, leaving Sue, her daughters Rebecca and Hayley, and grandsons Archie, Alfie, Freddie, Stanley, and Parker unable to get inside. Sue recalled: 'I was in tears. My grandchildren kept asking me why I was crying. What are you supposed to do when you have five children who want to go to Disney? They did not understand why we could not get in." The family was advised to contact Times and Travels UK directly. But after hours of frantic phone calls and messages, they were eventually told at 1pm that the tickets had in fact been cancelled two days before they even travelled. The reason, Sue was told, was a £497 discrepancy – despite her having already paid the full amount for the package. The semi-retired driver said she was horrified to discover the mistake was down to an 'admin error.' She said: 'This was a once-in-a-lifetime trip. I spent all my savings on a magical holiday, but this ruined it. It was meant to be a lovely trip away for the family, but instead we were standing outside Disney crying with five children.' Sue eventually paid £650 out of her own pocket for replacement tickets at the gate, after being reassured she would be reimbursed. But she says she is still waiting for the refund.

According to Sue, the firm has offered to return the money in three instalments – £459 followed by two payments of £100 – but she has refused, insisting on a single payment of the full amount. She said: 'What if someone did not have the money to buy the tickets at the door? "Not everyone has that option, and it is not a small amount that you might have extra. I always book holidays with the likes of TUI and Jet2, but I checked it out and it looked fine. I did have a bad feeling, so I booked it on the credit card and made sure I was protected. In the back of my mind, I was worried.' Times and Travels UK has not responded to direct requests for comment. However, in a reply to Sue's review on Trustpilot, the firm admitted the day passes were cancelled by its supplier without prior notice. The company said: 'We acknowledge this was frustrating and we sincerely apologise for the stress it caused. As soon as you made us aware, we investigated and confirmed that you will be refunded for the cost of the cancelled tickets. This promise still stands, and we are working to process it. 'We have never refused your refund, and at no point did we say we would not take responsibility. We understand the delay has caused frustration, and we truly are sorry.' The firm added that it remains a registered travel business and said: 'We have helped hundreds of families and couples travel to Disney, Asia, and beyond, and we take our reputation seriously. Our small team is still working through a backlog due to a recent internal change in management, but no one has been ignored or left behind intentionally, and every pending case is being resolved. 'We hope you will allow us to complete the process and make this right.'
