He revealed that Rock N Roll Star is definitively "getting played". However, fan-favourite B-side, Acquiesce, which Liam has belted out at his solo gigs didn't make the selection.

Their message on X read: "The guns have fallen silent. The stars have aligned. The great wait is over. Come see. It will not be televised."

Five could release documentary film on reunion tour
Five fans could get a behind-the-scenes documentary film about the reunion. Earlier this year, the group - comprised of Abz Love, Jason 'J' Brown, Ritchie Neville, Scott Robinson and Sean Conlon – announced they were back together as a five-piece for the first time in 25 years and are heading out on the 'Keep On Movin' Tour' in late 2025. Demand for the shows and interest in the reunion has been huge. The guys have been filming everything related to the reunion so far and will be capturing the backstage and on-stage moments when the tour kicks off and that footage could end up as a documentary charting their comeback. Speaking to BANG Showbiz, Scott said: 'Behind the curtain is what people like. 'The people that come to your concerts, yes they want to see your music, they also want to see what goes on backstage. We're filming bits and bobs for our memories as well. It's so nice to look back on these moments and capture these moments because that's what people want to see, the real stuff that goes on.' When asked if the footage could become a documentary film, he added: 'We're open to it. I think it would be amazing to do something like that. 'I think people need to see it.' Jason added: 'The so called off-camera, behind-the-scenes stuff is what we're all about. Capturing that stuff gives people a really good insight into us.' One special moment fans can look forward to on the tour is that at the concerts it will be the first time all five members have performed their 2001 number one single 'Let's Dance' together. Back in 2001, Sean needed to take time out from Five due to a stress induced breakdown and he was replaced in the video with a life-size cardboard cut-out in the video for the song. The track would be their last number one before they split at the end of the year. Sean's mother has told him that she cannot wait to see all five band members perform the song together. Sean said: "My mum actually said this, she said, 'I want to see all five of you perform 'Let's Dance'." Five kick off their 'Keep On Movin' Tour' on Friday, October 31 at the Brighton Centre.

Jeremy Clarkson's emotional farewell as 'lifesaver' leaves Diddly Squat Farm
Our community members are treated to special offers, promotions and adverts from us and our partners. You can check out at any time. More info WARNING: THIS ARTICLE CONTAINS SPOILERS. The fresh episode of Clarkson's Farm on Prime Video has been a hit with fans as Jeremy Clarkson, Kaleb Cooper, and newcomer Harriet Cowan deal with an unruly boar on their patch. A vet advised Clarkson that the boar, showing aggressive tendencies towards other pigs, was not suitable for the farm. While the rest of the Diddly Squat Farm team were pleased to bid adieu to the cumbersome creature, another goodbye struck a sadder note. In a touching scene from episode three, Clarkson confided: "No one was upset to see Harvey [the boar] leave. "But it was now time for another departure from Diddly Squat, and that was a bit sad." Farmhand Harriet prepared to leave while Clarkson tenderly said: "So that's it, you're off.", reports Surrey Live. Clarkson inquired, "Are you off back to Derbyshire?" Harriet nodded about her homeward journey, prompting him to warmly advise her, "Well, listen, you have been an absolute star,". (Image: BANG Showbiz) (Image: PRIME VIDEO) (Image: PRIME VIDEO) He sincerely thanked her, "Thanks ever so much for all you have done, you have been absolutely brilliant, "You saved my life, you did." Jeremy had originally needed extra hands at the farm when Kaleb took off on his tour, and it was pal Charlie Ireland who recommended Harriet, the Derbyshire-based nurse with solid farming chops from her dad's place. Despite knowing Harriet was only ever meant to be a temporary fixture at the farm, saying farewell didn't come easy for Jeremy. In a moment of levity, he joked, "When we get stuck again, can I give you a call?" to which Harriet assured him she would always be there to lend a hand. As she said goodbye to her temporary haunt, a static caravan, she quipped, "When you and Lisa fall out, she can come and live here." He responded with a chuckle, "I like your thinking, I approve of that," as he showed his appreciation for his "lifesaver" upon their parting. He fondly remarked, "She's a superstar, that one," while watching Harriet depart. Initially, Kaleb wasn't exactly thrilled to meet another young farmer at Diddly Squat, but a sense of fellowship soon blossomed between them.

Lulu needed therapy while writing memoir
Lulu needed therapy while writing her memoir. The 76-year-old singer is set to release 'If Only You Knew' in September and after spending decades keeping her struggles private, she has opened up about the challenges she faced in the book, but admitted it was "intense" having to look back so she sought some help with dealing with the feelings that surfaced as a result. Speaking at the start of her first sponsored walk for her new Lulu's Mental Health Trust foundation in London, she exclusively told BANG Showbiz: "I'm 76, who knows how long I'll last, I'm on the way out. I could relate to some of the difficulties in my life, some of the issues, in this book. As well as the amazing life I've had. 'But when you're famous or if you're rich, if you look successful, people think you've got everything but really and truly, we all have issues, we all have difficulties, we all have challenges, and those are the things that fix it. "So, I'm talking about everything and it's been intense. "I've had to go into therapy because when you've kept things down, they lodge in your body and you can't just access them easily, you have to dig down. 'And it's been very intense and I talk about thing I've never spoken about before, some real issues I've had in my life and if that's helpful to someone, then I've done a good job. 'But I also talk about my amazing life." Lulu believes now is the time to share her story because the world has changed so much and people find it more comfortable to speak about their "struggles", and opening up inspired her to start her charity. She said: 'My walk is to announce my brand new mental health charity which has come about because I have just finished writing – still editing, tweaking – but I have finished writing my memoir. 'The reason for doing it is I'm 76 years old. Someone very close to me said, 'You know, people think they know Lulu' and I'm like, 'Yeah, who cares so what' but she said, 'Nobody knows you.' 'And I said 'Really?' And then I started to think about it, talk about it, write about it. 'When I was a child, my mother used to nag me and say, 'Never wash your dirty linen in public', the message I got was keep everything secret, don't talk about things that are dark or difficult. 'But that's not the world today, the world today – and I think it's better for it – young people today can talk about their mental health issues, their struggles in life, we can all talk about it. 'So I think now was the time." To sponsor Lulu - who walked from where she filmed the video for 'To Sir With Love' and ended where she recorded ''Shout' - visit 'If Only You Knew' will be released on 25 September and will be followed by a UK tour, in which the star will share stories and perform some songs.

Former A Place in the Sun host Scarlette Douglas shares update on relationship status
Former 'A Place in the Sun' host Scarlette Douglas has given an update on her relationship status. The 38-year-old star - who left the Channel 4 international house-hunting show in 2022 - froze her eggs at the Harley Street Fertility Clinic in London last year, so she could take the "stress" and "pressure" off herself to strike up a romance and start a family before her "body clock gets old". Scarlette has now shared she is still single and is actively looking for "any eligible bachelors" that are "family-orientated" and "sporty". Speaking exclusively to BANG Showbiz at the 'Football For Peace - Rehydrate the Earth Gala' at the Nobu Hotel in London on Wednesday night (07.05.25), she said: "I'm a very career-driven woman, and I froze my eggs, especially for that reason; to focus on my career. "So I can do events like this where I'm here, I don't have any man telling me, 'You can't do that!' So, I guess I can do things on my terms. "Of course, I want a partner, but I'm not going to set on it if I don't have to. "For me, events like these are super important – not to say that if I had a partner, I wouldn't be able to do these – but right now, these are my favourites. So if I meet someone along the way, fantastic. If I don't, I'll just keep going. "I'm always looking – if anyone's here tonight, let me know! Any eligible bachelors?" However, Scarlette will need her Mr. Right to be "family-orientated" so he can "fit in well" with her mum Beverly, her dad Joe, her retired Luton Town F.C. striker brother Stuart, and her other brother Andrew. Asked what the key to her heart is, Scarlette revealed: "I think someone who's family-orientated. I've got so much love for my family. All my family are here today – my mum, my dad, my brothers – so I'll have to have someone who can fit in well and be sporty, as well." Scarlette - who co-fronted Channel 4's 'Worst House on the Street' with her brother Stuart - spent nearly two weeks at the Harley Street Fertility Clinic undergoing the "£5910 give or take" procedure to freeze her eggs. Scarlette was initially reluctant to share that she was undergoing the procedure with her social media following because of "backlash", but she is so glad to have told her fans about doing it because she has helped "five people" to freeze their eggs. She admitted: "When you talk about things on social media, there's always a backlash, and I did initially; I did get some people saying, 'Why are you talking about it?' "But, I had so many amazing comments that people were sending out to me, saying, 'Thank you so much,' on it and off the back of it. "I already know five people that have frozen their eggs. So if I can help just one person, that's the most important thing for me." And Scarlette added that her supportive fans got her through the procedure. She said: "And having the support of my fans really helped get me through it, as well. So, for me, it was great."
