Lewis Capaldi's hilarious reaction to Ed Sheeran's surprise phone call as fans gush over 'bromance'
Lewis Capaldi fans are delighted to have been given an update on the Scots star after his pal Ed Sheeran gave him a surprise goodnight phone call and filmed it live on TikTok. Lewis Capaldi and Ed Sheeran have once again demonstrated their close 'bromance' in a hilarious goodnight call video which has left fans of the music duo in stitches. Taking to TikTok earlier this week, Sheeran uploaded an amusing video to the streaming platform of him phoning 'his one and only to wish him a goodnight' on his tablet. The video was uploaded in the midst of a viral TikTok 'positive masculinity' trend where men have been filming themselves making surprise phone calls to their mates before bedtime to say goodnight and tell them they love them. Capaldi, 28, can be heard answering the call as Sheeran tells him: "Hello mate. I'm just calling to wish you goodnight. Without even questioning the situation, Lewis replies: "Hey baby. Goodnight my guy. Goodnight my special guy." The Bad Habits hitmaker asks him: "What are you doing?" as the Scots singer responds: "I'm kinda just chilling on my couch right now. Feeling pretty mellow." Sheeran can be seen stifling a laugh on the camera as he continues: "And what are you wearing?" The Someone You Loved singer replies in true Capaldi fashion: "Just the usual, got my little boccies (boxers) on. You know, just hanging out, relaxing." Ed, 34, says: "Well I just want to let you know that you're loved and cared for" as Lewis says back to him: "I'll think about you when I go to sleep tonight." Sheeran adds: "I'll think about you right now just before I go to sleep and whilst I'm asleep." Lewis signs off as he says: "Nice one bro. Love you" leaving his pal Ed laughing as he ends the call with: "Love you my love. Hang loose." The video, which was uploaded to Ed Sheeran's official TikTok account, has racked in 1.5m likes with amused fans racing to the comment section. One wrote: "Lewis so unfazed by this I am 100% convinced you do this every night." Another fan exclaimed: "The bromance between ed sheeran and lewis capaldi never dies." A third joked: "Are we interrupting?" while a fourth commented: "Lewis reacted as if this was a part of his bedtime routine #positivemasculinity" The video comes just days after the duo were recently spotted at the Premier League game between Ipswich Town and West Ham on Sunday, May 25. Capaldi, who has been keeping a low profile since he announced he was taking a break from the limelight in 2023, was seen laughing and joking with Ed in the stands of the game. The Someone You Loved hitmaker said he was taking a break from music following his Glastonbury performance almost two years ago, where he was seen visibly struggling with Tourette's syndrome, which he was diagnosed with in September 2022. However, he is rumoured to be back in the studio making music and is thought to be making a comeback soon. Loyal fans in the comment section of Ed's Tiktok begged the Scots singer to return soon as one wrote: "We miss Lewis Capaldi", with a series of crying faces. Another echoed: "A Lewis Capaldi update. Tell him we miss him SOOOO MUCH!", accompanied by more sad face emojis. A third wrote: "Thank you for letting us know our Lewis is ok! We love you both!"

Scots inmates watching US telly hit Prison Break and other X-rated movies behind bars
Read on to discover some of the other titles available to cons NICK FLICK FIASCO Scots inmates watching US telly hit Prison Break and other X-rated movies behind bars Click to share on X/Twitter (Opens in new window) Click to share on Facebook (Opens in new window) THE Scottish Prison Service has come under fire for allowing inmates to watch X-rated content behind bars. Lags are permitted to rent from a catalogue of thousands of 18-rated DVDs, which include films about serial killers and sex beasts. Sign up for Scottish Sun newsletter Sign up 4 Inmates at Glasgow's HMP Barlinnie have been watching X-rated DVDs Credit: Alamy 4 American telly hit Prison Break depicts a complex jailbreak plan Credit: Fox Broadcasting 4 Raunchy flick Fifty Shades of Grey is available to rent Credit: Alamy And cons can even borrow 2005 crime drama Prison Break - which tells, in detail, the fictional story of a US jailbreak. Other titles available include serial killer classic Silence of the Lambs and psychological thriller Dexter - a series about a killer police forensic officer. A source said: 'Some of the depraved crimes this lot have committed could easily be adapted into a Hollywood blockbuster. 'The last thing they need is to be given any twisted ideas - they shouldn't even be allowed TVs in the first place.' Also available for prison movie nights is Fifty Shades of Grey, Brokeback Mountain and American Pie. Lags can also kick back and watch a documentary about real-life child killers Fred and Rose West. But critics have basted the film fiasco and are urging prison bosses to review the rules. A spokesman for the Prison Officers' Association told MailOnline: 'Given all the factors such as overcrowding, drug use, bullying and organised crime gang activities inside our prisons, the last thing we need is anything else adding to the tension or temperatures. 'It is something that the SPS should be reviewing as a priority with a view to limiting the availability of these films.' Elsewhere, the Scottish Conservatives are urging SNP ministers to order jail chiefs to remove the X-rated flicks. Shadow justice secretary Liam Kerr MSP said: 'Ordinary Scots will be appalled that inmates are being provided with X-rated movies by prisons. 'England and Wales banned 18-rated movies and TV shows from their prisons 12 years ago and it is about time that the Scottish Prison Service followed suit. 'Many of the prisoners at Barlinnie will be behind bars for violent crimes, so it is common sense they should not be able to access graphically violent material about serial killers and torturers. 'Prisoners trying to get clean will also not be helped by having access to content that promotes drug use. 4 Scottish Conservaites shadow justice secretary Liam Kerr blasted the SNP Credit: Alamy 'SNP Ministers must intervene and immediately direct the SPS to remove violent or sexual films from our prisons.' A Scottish Prison Service spokesperson added: 'Access to watching DVDs is a privilege not a right, and is available at the discretion of the Governor.'

Michelle McManus joins Robbie Williams for duet at Murrayfield show
The Glasgow-born singer joined her longtime friend on stage at Edinburgh's Murrayfield Stadium, treating the 70,000-strong crowd to an electrifying duet of Relight My Fire. The performance brought Scots to their feet as they could be heard cheering loudly while the pair performed. The setlist included a string of Robbie's biggest hits, such as Angels, Rock DJ, and Let Me Entertain You, creating an unforgettable night for fans. Ahead of the performance, Michelle admitted she was more nervous singing in front of Robbie than she had been when performing for the Pope. She said: 'My happy place is when I sing, so the singing part is not the problem. The nervous part is singing to Robbie Williams in front of 70,000 people. READ MORE: Scottish minister hits back at Defence Secretary 'student union politics' jibe 'When we did the Pope's visit in Bellahouston, it was 80,000—but singing for a bunch of cardinals and a Pope was slightly different from singing for Robbie Williams.' The Glasgow Times reported that back in March, Robbie surprised Michelle with the invitation during an interview on her BBC Scotland radio show. As the interview wrapped up, Robbie asked unexpectedly: 'Would you like to come and sing with me in Edinburgh?' A clearly shocked Michelle responded: 'Sorry… What? What was that?' before emotionally accepting: 'Yes, I'm saying yes—I would love that. You are amazing. And you are an incredible human being. I meant every word I said before this even came up.' (Image: Michell McManus Instagram) Following the performance, Michelle shared a photo of the moment on her Instagram Stories, showing her and Robbie singing together on stage. She captioned it simply: 'This diva though.' Robbie also shared post on social media sharing his love for Scotland. Sharing a striking photo from the concert, he captioned the post: 'Scotland – I love you. "That was an incredible opening night. Until next time. Rob x' The comments section quickly filled with love from fans who were blown away by the show. One wrote: 'Rob is the best.' Another added: 'You were on fire. Absolutely incredible show.' A third fan declared: 'What a night. THE KING OF ENTERTAINMENT!' The surprise duet marked a memorable highlight of the tour's kickoff and a heartwarming moment for fans of both artists.
