Bleeding HGTV makes sweeping changes in last-ditch attempt to save network amid crisis
HGTV has cancelled seven shows in a bid to cut costs and bring the network into a new era. In recent weeks, the channel has axed Farmhouse Fixer, Izzy Does It, The Flipping El Moussas, Christina on the Coast, Married to Real Estate, Battle on the Beach, and Bargain Block, which has left fans furious. According to Deadline, the bold decision to cull the seven programs was to help free up some money. The publication reports that HGTV home renovation shows can cost up to $500,000 per episode compared to real estate shows, which costs somewhere between $200,000 and $300,000, and can be produced in a shorter period. 'Home reno shows are expensive because all of the materials are jacked up and on delay, the price of wood and marble and everything else is going up so these shows don't make as much sense anymore,' one source told Deadline. On top of budget issues, a producer claimed some talent were being paid up to $100,000 an episode and were 'afraid to say no.' 'They allowed their talent to run amok,' an insider alleged. 'They gave them some form of creative control and that's harming their own shows. They were so afraid of talent they never said no and the shows aren't delivering anymore. 'They kowtowed to talent and now they're suffering the consequences.' Additionally, the publication claimed that HGTV has been struggling with ratings, as well as competition from TikTok stars and other channels. 'I don't know if it's a show thing as much of an audience thing where a lot of people are dropping cable,' another source said. 'There was a time when people would just put on HGTV when they were cleaning.' Daily Mail has contacted HGTV for comment. Despite the bloodbath, HGTV does have new programming on the way. Property Brothers Drew and Jonathan Scott are returning with a brand new show, Chasing the West, which is set to premiere on July 30. The eight-part series will see them help buyers find their dream ranch. Earlier this month, HGTV announced Queer Eye's Bobby Berk will front a new series, Junk or Jackpot, which 'follows collectors as they discover the true monetary value of their massive and unusual collections.' The show is executive produced by John Cena. My Lottery Dream and Zillow Gone Wild both returned to the network this month. My Lottery Dream, hosted by David Bromstad, sees him 'help clients purchase their fantasy homes with their newly attained fortunes.' 'No matter where these lucky buyers want to settle, David won't stop until he finds luxurious properties that deliver every feature on a lottery winner's wish list,' the synopsis teases. Meanwhile, Zillow Gone Wild follows comedian and actor Jack McBrayer as he searches the internet for the weirdest, wackiest and wildest properties on the market inspired by the exceedingly popular Instagram account that touts more than two million followers.

'I moved from US to the UK and there's one British phrase I still find odd'
A woman who moved from the US to the UK has shared three phrases she never said before she moved to Britain, including one that she claims 'throws off every American' A woman who moved from the US to the UK has shared the one 'British' phrase that she claims every American expat gets confused by. It's expected to get some culture shocks when moving to a new country, including the language used by locals, and an American called Katie has taken to TikTok to speak about the differences she has experienced since moving across from the States. The content creator now lives in York and has posted videos about her life in the UK. These include British supermarket items she likes and things that 'feel illegal' in Britain but aren't illegal. In another clip she shared three British phrases she never used to say before living in the UK. 1. 'You alright' Katie claimed the phrase 'you alright' 'throws off every single American when they move here' and she admitted that it's definitely true for herself. She explained that in America people only say that if something's wrong but in the UK people commonly say 'you alright' as a greeting when passing each other in the street, for example. The expat advised fellow American expats not to panic if a British person says this to them and to respond 'yeah, good thanks and you?' 2. 'Hiya' Katie continued: '[The] Second one is 'hiya'. I don't…I never said this before moving here, now I say it all the time.' 'Hiya' is an informal way of saying 'hello'. She added that it flows well with 'you alright' so someone from the UK might say 'hiya, you alright.' 3. 'What's for tea?' The content creator's third and favourite phrase that she has picked up since moving to the UK is 'what's for tea?' Katie remarked: 'I ask everybody 'what's for tea?', I love it.' She explained that Brits use this casual phrase when asking someone what they are having for dinner. The expat elaborated: 'I think it's maybe only like a northern thing to ask that but either way, yeah I'm obsessed with it.' She also shared that she asks 'what's for tea?' anytime there's a lull in the conversation or when she's talking to someone she has just met. Katie's TikTok video has garnered 18,700 views, more than 1,000 likes and numerous comments, at the time of writing. One user pointed out: 'Americans say 'how you doin' which is literally the same as 'you alright'. Another said: 'There's an amusing irony in how you started the video with 'what's up' which always throws Brits off as we would only use it if something is wrong.' A third praised Katie for adopting British culture as they commented: 'Perfect, you're doing great. These made me smile, I use all of these.' While a fourth added: 'Love how you're picking up a bit of an accent too."

Lewis Capaldi says drummer was in ‘floods of tears' at secret Glastonbury set
The 28-year-old performed a 35-minute surprise performance on the Pyramid stage, having taken a two-year break from performing after his last appearance at the Somerset festival, and revealed he had to leak his own secret set after he was worried people would not turn up. Capaldi said: 'I'm not great at keeping secrets, I wanted it to be a surprise, but we had to start leaking it out a couple of weeks before because it would have been strange to come out to an empty field. 'By that weekend it was the worst-kept secret. It was genuinely the best day of my life, I loved every moment of it. 'Almost immediately, I was overcome with emotion and I started to well up, so I was like, 'get it together', but then I turned around and looked at my drummer, and he was in floods of tears. 'It was weird, I knew it was going to be fine this time around. I had nerves and butterflies, but it wasn't the same as 2023 when I was so stressed and I knew something bad was going to happen. It was spectacular.' Capaldi was speaking as part of the launch of Apple Music's Music That Soothes Me series of curated playlists, with the singer himself putting together a track list including the likes of Fontaines DC, Lana Del Rey and The 1975. The series, which features music intended to help listeners relax and unwind, also features playlists curated by Renee Rapp and Bring Me The Horizon. Speaking about how he relaxes, the Scottish singer said: 'I use music in meditation a lot – ambient music, not what I usually listen to. But when I'm going to bed, I'll listen to a lot of green noise and rain noises, especially when I'm trying to get to sleep, to soothe me. 'Slowing down and being outside helps, I like meditation, and I also go to therapy, which has really helped me with stress. 'I'm not someone who enjoys going for long walks or spending a ton of time outside, but I force myself to do it these days because the effect it has on my mood and my stress levels is just mind-blowing. 'I think for a long time I was either working or going to the pub, and these days I spend a lot more time with friends in a way that isn't just going out. 'Doing wholesome things with friends is always a nice change. Get outside, go to therapy, do some meditation and hang out with people.' The singer says he plays the 'older' work of rapper Eminem and his own demos to relax, joking that the latter 'really knocks me out'. Capaldi recently said he had the 'most incredible, surreal feeling' after his 17-date UK and Ireland comeback tour sold out. During the 2025 Glastonbury show, Capaldi performed his new track Survive, which has since gone to number one on the singles chart, and ended his performance with Someone You Loved, the track that Glastonbury crowds helped him to sing when he struggled with his Tourette symptoms in 2023. Tourette syndrome causes sudden, repetitive sounds or movements and while there is no cure, treatment can help manage the tics, according to the NHS website. Prior to the festival slot, the Glaswegian star performed a number of secret gigs and guest appearances, saying in an interview with online therapy platform BetterHelp that he felt a 'rush of adrenaline' before managing to calm himself before his first warm-up gig in Edinburgh. Capaldi has had six UK number one singles, including Before You Go, Pointless and Wish You The Best. He has also seen both of his studio albums reach number one in the UK albums chart.
