Former nightclub in Scots city on sale for over £1.25 million
Until recently, the large buildings at 29-35 Bruce Street were home to Collective, which included the 1703 Bier Helle, a restaurant called Dine 29, and 17 letting bedrooms. Before that, it was Harlem, potentially the only club in Dunfermline to ever have its own hot tub. Agents Christie & Co are marketing the premises, with offers over £1,250,000 considered. Read More Rightmove describes it as 'mainly a Victorian style church which has been substantially extended to the rear' and 'a two-storey modern building under a pitched and tiled roof.' The area was once a thriving spot where clubgoers would be seen spilling out onto the street, but in recent years empty units have become commonplace. Just down the road, the former home of Citizen has been empty for some time, and as far as drinking spots in the street go, only the Bruce Tavern remains.

Bigg Boss fans, the wait is over! The controversial reality show, which has been a source of entertainment for many years now, is set to return to the screens from next month onwards. This time, it promises to stay longer and deliver even more than expected. The makers are reaching out to celebrities and approaching them to participate in Salman Khan's controversial show. But guess what, one contestant is already reportedly confirmed to be a part of Bigg Boss 19. It is Kavya Mehra. But who is she? Who is Kavya Mehra? Kavya Mehra is an AI Influencer from India created by the Collective Artists Network. She is not just a digital avatar of a human, but she is the first AI Mom. Kavya represents modern motherhood through her deep understanding of human experiences. Her content beautifully captures the multifaceted journey of motherhood, blending themes of cooking, family, life and personal well-being. The AI Influencer was created by gathering insights from real mothers in Collective's community. Due to this, her content resonates with Indian moms. But along with this, Kavya also endorses brands and creates lifestyle content ranging from traveling, makeup, clothing and more. According to the IANS report, Kavya Mehra's presence on Bigg Boss 19 will mark a new chapter in the show. A source told them, "To see an AI personality like Kavya on national television would mark a new chapter in how audiences interact with technology. While there has been a lot of news around the AI contestant, be it Kavya or Habubu, it's too early to confirm anything." Before AI Influencer Kavya Mehra was reported to be a part of Bigg Boss 19, there was news that Habubu, a robotic doll from the UAE, was confirmed to participate in Bigg Boss 19. India Forums had reported that the makers are set to introduce Habubu, the AI robot for the first time as a contestant. Habubu can even communicate fluently in seven languages, including Hindi, which adds to its intriguing persona. Amidst these ongoing reports, the makers haven't confirmed anything about Salman Khan -hosted Bigg Boss 19 contestants. However, reports suggest that the show is speculated to begin airing in mid-August. Pinkvilla has exclusively reported that Bigg Boss 19 will extend beyond the traditional three-month format, running for about 5.5 months. More details about this is still awaited.
