Dapper Laughs rushed to hospital after golf buggy accident 'snaps' back
Dapper Laughs has been rushed to hospital after a golf buggy accident, marking the second time this has happened to the content creator.
'Me & golf carts just dont mix..' the controversial star said while sharing a clip of the crash, which happened on his brother's stag do in Portugal.
Taking to social media, the 40-year-old said: 'I did not expect to end up here, A&E. F***ing Portugal. I've hurt my back, I can't speak because of the f***ing pain, mate. It hurt my back bad.
'I hit hard stand, twisted, left and right. I f***ing came off the golf cart, didn't I? But I did catch it on camera, have a look.'
Before sharing the footage of the moment he fell, the content creator – real name Daniel O'Reilly – explained what followers were about to see.
'You can hear [the driver] say, 'Is that your ball over there?' Where he turns left while I'm hanging out on the right,' he said, continuing: 'Then f*** me you can hear the clicks in my back when I bend down to pick up my phone. Like it's just f***ing snapped, listen.'
The video shows a fast-moving convoy of golf buggies, and it does indeed catch his friend asking about the location of his ball, before the camera suddenly shakes and shows nothing but the blue sky.
'I'm sorry I didn't realise you were hanging off the side,' the driver of the buggy can be heard saying after the fall, as O'Reilly says, 'That was bad.'
'Oww, my back,' O'Reilly can be heard saying, 'I think I've hurt my back.'

Suranne Jones: ‘My son cringed at one part of my new Netflix thriller'
Let's set the scene: it's a sunny day on Downing Street and the press corps is waiting, cameras poised, for the Prime Minister, when out from Number 10 steps Suranne Jones. Except, it isn't Suranne Jones. This is our latest elected leader Abigail Dalton. (Albeit an unlikely name for a British PM.) With a sharply cropped new hairdo – more on that later – and a plum power suit, Jones stars in Netflix's new political thriller Hostage, across from Julie Delpy's visiting French president. The two world leaders are locked in tense negotiations over Channel boat crossings and NHS medication supplies when disaster, right on cue, strikes. Abigail's do-gooder husband Alex (Bashy) is in French Guiana on a Doctors Without Borders project, when his entire cohort is kidnapped by a masked gang. Their ransom request? Abigail must resign, or they'll start picking off doctors one by one. Given that he's been snatched in French territory and it turns out the kidnappers have dirt on the French pres too, what unfolds is a gripping, if somewhat unlikely, political thriller with two frenemy female leaders going head-to-head.

Sign up to our newsletter and then select your show in the link we'll send you so we can get TV news tailored to you. Ahead of the five-part show's release on Netflix this Thursday (August 21), Suranne spoke to Metro about working with writer Matt Charman on what type of 'strong female character' she had yet to tackle, when she noticed a politically-themed role was missing from her head count. To view this video please enable JavaScript, and consider upgrading to a web browser that supports HTML5 video Doing double duty as both the show's star and an executive producer meant Suranne was part of the decision-making process on elements like makeup and costume, which real-world female politicians have said is always being carefully managed to ensure it's on brand. Delpy's president Vivienne Toussaint first emerges from a car with all the sleek menace of a knife, wearing a white coat with a slash of red lipstick (the type of thing the Before Sunrise star tells us is the complete opposite of her 'sloppy' norm). 'Abigail matches [Vivienne] in a way,' says Suranne. 'She gets a little bit more put together as her life starts falling apart, which is interesting. You're adding layers, you're adding armour, because you need to be perceived as in control.' With a knowing smile, she adds: 'Also it's a Netflix show. At a very base level, I want to watch and go, 'I want to wear her coat'.' The 46-year-old has become one of British TV's most bankable terrestrial stars – with shows like Vigil and Gentleman Jack on the BBC – but Hostage marks her first foray into the gleaming, glossy-coat world of Netflix. While making TV is by no means an easy feat, Suranne and Julie do point out all the ways their lives are not like their Hostage counterparts. For one thing, Suranne says, she gets more sleep. The stars researched real-life politicians who have walked the corridors of power and remarked upon the 'instant' changes in their hair and pallor when they take office – as if the weight of responsibilities has dawned and taken a psychical toll. Part of that is why Abigail undergoes a drastic hair transformation from the brief scene we see before the election, to the moment she later approaches the despatch box in Parliament. It's a she-means-business cropped 'do. 'Chopping her hair off is something less to worry about,' says Suranne. 'It's taken me a long time to grow it back. My son hated it. He said, 'Mummy, please don't pick me up at the school gates'.' More Trending This makes it sound a much worse trim than it actually is. 'I liked it,' Suranne adds. 'But he was just like 'Oh, cringe'.' It is the case that with the fast-paced twists and turns Hostage takes us on, Abigail's hair is likely the last thing she wants to be thinking about. There are far more important matters at hand. As Julie puts it: 'Usually there's one woman and all men around managing her. Here, it's like women managing everything else.'

Victoria Beckham and Richard E Grant reunite 28 years after Spiceworld
Victoria Beckham and Richard E. Grant delighted fans this week when they enjoyed an impromptu reunion – 28 years after starring together in Spice World. The actor, 68, played Clifford, the Spice Girls' bumbling manager, in the 1997 comedy, while Victoria Beckham, now 51, took her place on screen as Posh Spice. Despite being panned by critics on release, the film was a box office sensation and has since earned cult classic status, even returning to cinemas in 2017 for its 20th anniversary. Grant revealed the surprise encounter on Instagram after the pair found themselves at neighbouring tables while dining at Ristorante Lo Scoglio on the Amalfi Coast. Sharing a smiling selfie with Victoria, he captioned it: '🎶 'STOP RIGHT NOW' 🎶 I worked with @victoriabeckham on SPICEWORLD – THE MOVIE, 28 years ago and found ourselves at adjacent lunch tables today @ristoranteloscoglio on the Amalfi coast. As delightful and warm as you could wish for.' Victoria quickly responded in kind, commenting: 'So lovely seeing you!!!! Kisses and happy summer xxxxxxx.' Her husband David Beckham also joined the fun in the comments, jokingly complaining that he hadn't managed to snag his own selfie with the actor: 'Can't believe I didn't get one @ next time ❤️.' Grant was quick with a witty reply, telling the footballer, newly knighted this summer: '@davidbeckham You need to up your 'game' Sir David – congratulations! Next time.' For many, the exchange was an exciting reminder of Spice World's enduring place in pop culture. The movie, which followed the girl group as they performed around London and got into surreal scrapes, encapsulated the peak of Spicemania and remains a cherished slice of 1990s pop nostalgia.

Earlier this year he revealed that he had dusted off his original purple Clifford suit for his daughter Olivia's 36th birthday, a prom-themed party, amazed to discover it still fit after nearly three decades. He has also spoken about how special it was to take Olivia, then eight years old and a Spice Girls superfan, to meet the band on set during filming. More Trending The unexpected reunion between Grant and Beckham seems to have struck a nostalgic chord with fans too, with many celebrating the photo as a reminder of a more fun time in pop culture.

‘The terrible TV show that almost bankrupted my channel'
The reboot of The X-Files 'almost broke' Channel 5, the broadcaster's chief content officer has revealed. Ben Frow was speaking at the Edinburgh TV Festival when he slated the revival series starring David Duchovny and Gillian Anderson as agents Mulder and Scully. Frow was asked to reveal his favourite TV shows of the last 50 years, naming the hugely influential sci-fi series which first aired from 1993 to 2002. It was revived in 2016, with additional episodes airing in 2018, and the first episode at the time drew in the biggest audience in Channel 5's history for a drama. Over 5million TV viewers tuned in live or caught up online the week after it was broadcast. It was the biggest show launch since Celebrity Big Brother hit Channel 5 screens in 2011. But Frow told the crowd at Edinburgh TV Festival The X-Files was a 'rubbish mega series'. 'We put a lot of money into that – it almost broke us.' The conversation was unusually honest, with Frow admitting the first six months of 2025 had been 'grim' for Channel 5. He also called two of its most highly-anticipated series, reboots of Challenge Anneka and Faking It, 'disasters'. 'I was stunned Faking it was such a disaster,' he said. 'It was so brilliantly made.' The noughties life-swapping show was rebooted this year. Every episode of Faking It saw a plucky volunteer dropped into a foreign world, with just four weeks to get to grips with a new skill and convince a panel of experts they're the genuine article. Frow explained: 'I think in the New World Order you don't have to watch a show to get what the show is so we kind of encourage people not to watch the programme, but I was very surprised. 'I also wonder if Faking It as a title since fake news came – you know, it was 20 years ago.' To view this video please enable JavaScript, and consider upgrading to a web browser that supports HTML5 video Challenge Anneka was another flop for Channel 5, but in hindsight Frow said he knew it was doomed before it even made it to air. More Trending Originally airing on BBC from 1989 to 1995, the show followed Anneka Rice being given a task without any prior knowledge, with a tight deadline to complete it. usually in aid for a charitable cause. But Challenge Anneka's second lease of life was quickly cut off and its final episode never even aired. It was ditched from Channel 5's weekend schedule after just two episodes. 'We realised about two weeks before we put it out, 'Hang on a minute. This is just a big makeover show.' We've had big home renovation shows since then and the world has changed so much that what Annika was doing was really ambitious 20, 30 years ago,' Frow said.
