Currently on Amazon, this LG sound system has amassed an impressive 4.7 out of 5 star rating, with a 84% giving it 5 out of 5. One thrilled customer raves: "Bought this a month ago and found it easy to set up. The sound is really top quality and whilst I didn't pay the top price for it, it was worth every penny. My choice was made in part as we have an LG tv and therefore compatible with its remote control. Works with Alexa but I am still learning the functions."
Another shopper shares: "It's incredible! Not much money for cinema quality and the surround sound is immense. Had the previous version and this is a massive upgrade. Well done Meridian with LG, very well done."
And this buyer beams: "I've owned several soundbar and subwoofer sets, and while they've been okay, they've also been lacking. Then, I bought a Sky Glass, and what screen was lacking, I thought was made up with the inbuilt Atmos Soundbar, I was wrong. This soundbar sounds amazing. Clear voices, deep and full bass, and room filling sound. I've had to buy acoustic pads to go under the subwoofer so as to not vibrate the flat downstairs ceiling. But apart from that it fills the room with sound without the volume being objectionable, in fact, if you go into another room and close the door, you won't hear it anywhere near as loud as you'd expect. It's crystal clear with all sources. Music and Movies sound especially good on it. It feels like a true home cinema system, and when paired up to an LG OLED TV, the Wow Orchestra feature adds another layer of sound, so it feels like you are in a bubble of audio. It's just amazing, and for the price it is now, a bargain considering the audio quality."

Skechers launches £45 trainers with hidden compartment for Apple AirTags
Skechers, a trainer brand renowned for its comfort and support, has taken a leap forward with a new children's shoe designed to house an Apple AirTag. This feature allows parents to track their child's movements, marking a significant departure from the brand's usual slip-on trainers or shoes with 'cloud-like' inserts. The Go Run Elevate range, starting at £45, features a concealed compartment compatible with AirTags under the inner sole. The hidden nature of the compartment may offer parents reassurance as they can monitor their child's location, whether at nursery, in the park, or during a busy day out. Prices start at £45 for toddler sizes and go up to £55 for boys' and girls' sizes. However, it is important to note that the AirTag, which is central to the shoe's design, is not included in the price. These must be purchased separately. You can buy a pack of four, reduced from £119 to £89 on Amazon. Alternatively, Currys offers a pack of four AirTags for £92, reports Nottinghamshire Live. At a first glance, the price might seem steep, but it actually breaks down to a more affordable £23 per AirTag. No other brand has launched a line of footwear specifically crafted to house a Bluetooth tracker. But the concept is gaining traction on social media, with parents threading AirTags into their children's Jordan 1 laces, now retailing at £54.99 at the Nike Store. When compared to these methods, Skechers' offering appears to be a snugger and more comfortable alternative for embedding an AirTag within footwear, complete with a cosy design. The Go Run Elevate series boasts adaptive materials and includes an instep strap for added convenience. With the design being relatively new, there aren't many comments yet, but the feedback from consumers has been largely favourable, with the handful of reviews posted so far praising the shoes' comfort and functionality. A glowing five-star review stated: "The idea of this product is awesome, and Skechers are comfortable and offer good quality for a great price. "The fact that someone gave this product a one-star rating based on a suggestion to make these for adults didn't sit well with me." Another buyer remarked on how their child found the shoe 'so comfortable to wear'. Although a majority of purchasers are supportive of the design for their kids, it's sparked some controversy and debate. On Reddit, some users have expressed reservations about the design, with one individual commenting: "This is weird since Apple doesn't recommend using AirTags to track one's kids."

I swear by this £12 Bluetooth tracker on Amazon – it's the best budget swap for an Apple AirTag
THIS budget Bluetooth tracker is a hidden gem on Amazon, and right now, it's a steal. You can pick up the Groov-e My Tag for just £12.70, down from £17.99, and I can honestly say, it's worth every penny. 1 Groov-e My Tag Bluetooth Tracker, £17.99 £12.70 on Amazon I've tested some of the big-name trackers, and far too many are overpriced or overcomplicated. But the Groov-e My Tag is the budget hero in my best Bluetooth trackers roundup, and at this price, it's worth snapping up one (or two). Even at full price, it's one of the cheapest Apple Find My-compatible trackers you can get, with zero faff from third-party apps. Now, with a 29% discount, you're getting premium Apple-style tracking on a shoestring budget. Pairing it with my iPhone was painless; it popped up instantly, just like an AirTag. That accuracy gave me the same confidence I get from Apple's own kit, but just note, this isn't compatible with Android tech. Groov-e nails the essentials; just ping it to play a sound when your keys are hiding or check the last location. Or even get turn-by-turn directions to your missing item in the Find My app. The replaceable CR2032 coin cell should last up to a year, so you're not binning the whole thing every time the battery dies. You can use it for everything from tracking your suitcase to preventing your kid's PE kit from going AWOL. It's a bit of a hidden gem, too, with only a handful of reviews so far, but it's still earned a decent 3.6-star rating. One shopper called it a 'good alternative to an Apple AirTag,' adding: 'It works exactly the same as an AirTag, same app, same battery, same procedure, same loudness. 'The plus points of this are that it is much cheaper and comes with a case, and has a hole already in it to fit keys,' they added. Another said: 'Works just like the Apple AirTag, its slightly larger size isn't a problem and fits inside my bike frame without issues… at nearly half the price of an AirTag, what's not to like.' The only gripe I share with them is that it's a touch chunkier than some rivals. But it's still light, sits neatly on a keyring or bag, and the rubberised finish makes it feel like it could survive just about anything. If you want a no-nonsense tracker that works just as well as the big brands without the big price tag, the Groov-e My Tag is it. .

Star of Amazon Prime's most violent series shares emotional post ahead of finale
Antony Starr has bid an emotional farewell to Homelander ahead of the fifth and final season of the Boys. The hit Amazon Prime Video series first hit our screens in 2019, introducing us to the abusive, bloodsoaked and brutal superheroes – aka Supes – working for a powerful company, and the gang of vigilantes hoping to bring them down. Jack Quaid, Jessie T Usher, Karl Urban, Erin Moriarty, Chace Crawford, Laz Alonso and Simon Pegg are also among the star-studded cast. The show became a huge hit and landed a string of Emmy nominations, spawning spin-off series Gen V, which focuses on young Supes attending Godolkin University to hone their powers. It was previously announced that the upcoming season would be the final outing for the gang, and Antony has shared a heartfelt message on social media after production officially wrapped. Taking to Instagram with a string of photos from his time as the head of the Supes, the 49-year-old began a lengthy post: 'Ok. Been waiting a little to let things settle and try and process the end of this show. 'Difficult (for me) to put into words what an incredible ride this has been. How much life and growth has occurred. How amazing the team is. It's truly been the highlight of my career. 'When we began, I had no idea what was coming. This juggernaut left the station and never stopped. Except for that Covid moment. Oh and the strikes. That was a thing too. But apart from those two times, it never stopped, boldly making its mark on the television landscape. There's nothing else like it. It lives in its own lane. 'And at the end of the shoot, all there really is to say is – thank you. The incredible Canadian crew. The amazing production team. The insanely talented cast. 'The people at Amazon and Sony that took a chance on this insane thing (and made the great choice in casting me) and all the other people that contributed in some way, big or small, to this beautiful, complex, warped, delicious show.' 'I love this show. And I love this character. Truly,' he continued. 'I will dearly miss heading to work, knowing what we were aiming for but never knowing where we would find ourselves by the end of the day…only that we would have fun and it would be creatively rewarding in the extreme. 'This complicated character allowed the space and range to discover and push boundaries in a way I never expected and I will always be grateful for this experience. 'And of course huge gratitude to my co-parent with this twisted gem of a character – @erickripke1. We created a monster, sir. And I will miss him, and you. Til we roll out the last season. When I'll see you. 'But this creative chapter is closed , and I'll miss it, brother.' 'And finally – massive thank you to the fans. You are the life blood. Without you, we don't get to do this. And our fans are second to none. Mad love to you….and deepest respect for your taste ;),' he added. 'Okidoke people. We cooked for the last time. Can't wait to show you what we made. TIL that day, Homelander, signing off. Xo.'

Karen Fukuhara, who stars as Kimiko, replied: 'What a f**king time we had. Grateful to have had this experience with you + greatly miss it already.' Starlight actress Erin agreed: 'A gift to get to watch your masterclass in acting, let alone boogie w you during it.' A-Train's Jessie penned: 'You did a damn good job as Homelander.' 'The best villain played by the best actor! You inspire me so much, looking forward to your next iconic role, we love you and we will support you forever,' fan Elsie Bunny commented. As Dynasty Reyes added: 'You are literally the best person to play Homelander. You've brought him to life in a way I thought no actor could but you just proved how amazing and talented you are! More Trending 'This is such an incredible show and cast. I love how you all were able to bring your characters to life and play them so well.' The Boys became an instant hit when it arrived on Amazon Prime Video in 2019, leaving fans reeling with gory fights, graphic deaths and an unforgettable octopus sex scene. It has not yet been confirmed when Homelander, Starlight and co will hit our screens for the final time, but season two of Gen V will be premiering on September 17, so we can get our Supe fix.
