Jamie Redknapp joins his stunning wife Frieda as well as chic Binky Felstead and Alex Jones as they led the celebrities at day six of Wimbledon
was joined by his stunning wife Frieda as they attended day six of Wimbledon at The All England Lawn Tennis Club on Saturday. The couple led the celebrity arrivals for the Tennis Championships with Binky Felstead and Alex Jones also in attendance. Saturday's tennis action will see Novak Djokovic and Jannik Sinner as men's headliners at the All England Club, while Iga Swiatek, Mirra Andreeva and Barbora Krejcikova will play on the women's side. Jamie looks smart in a clean-cut navy blue suit with a white shirt while Frieda wore a co-ordinating collared midi dress. Binky showed off her chic sense of style in a yellow two-piece set consisting of a tailored waistcoat and high waisted shorts. The former Made In Chelsea star teamed her outfit with a matching pair of mules and carried a woven clutch bag. Alex wore an elegant polka dot dress that featured a highneck and semi-sheer tiered skirt. Actor Glen Powell opted for a chequered beige suit which he teamed with a white shirt and brown loafers. The presenter topped off her look with a pair of strappy heels and added a brown leather crossbody handbag. Saturday will see Djokovic take on Miomir Kecmanovic in the prime-time slot after Sinner has played Pedro Martinez. For the women, Swiatek will play Danielle Collins, while Krejcikova prepares to take on Emma Navarro. Earlier this year, former footballer and Sky soccer pundit Jamie was banned from driving for twelve months today for clocking-up multiple speeding offences. It was the ex-Tottenham Hotspur and Liverpool FC star's second driving ban for speeding, meaning he was disqualified for twice the usual length of time. The former England international, who lives in a six-bedroom £10.5m house in Kensington, did not appear at Bexley Magistrates Court. He pleaded guilty in advance of the hearing and declared his income to the court as £9,230 per week. Redknapp pleaded guilty to exceeding the 20mph limit on June 26, last year on the A219 Putney Hill, near the junction of Westleigh Avenue, Putney, where a camera snapped him doing 26mph. He also admitted exceeding the 50mph limit on November 2, last year on the M4 near Burghfield, Reading, where he was caught driving at 58mph.

Germany's fastest dachshund crowned after controversial race
Dachshund Fiete from Tornesch (Schleswig-Holstein) dashes across the grass during the in the Standard Dachshund category of the first German Dachshund Racing Championship. Simon Kremer/dpa The fastest dachshund in Germany was named on Sunday after a controversial inaugural race. Fiete, from Tornesch in the northern state of Schleswig-Holstein, won the final of the first German championship for standard dachshunds in Magdeburg in 5.6 seconds. Advertisement But the final race had to be repeated twice because, despite a photo finish, no clear winner could be determined in the initial two runs. A total of 220 dachshunds competed in various events over the weekend. Whistles, squeaky balls and small treats were used to encourage the sausage dogs to cover the 40-metre race track as quickly as possible. In the miniature dachshund category, Frieda from the state of Brandenburg claimed victory. "Frieda only gets buffalo meat from us. Maybe that's her little secret," said her owner Stefan Müller. Participants came from all over Germany, according to the organizers, with two dogs even travelling from Austria. The dachshund is widely thought to be a creation of German breeders in the 1700s.

Palestine Action supporters defiant as group faces ban
"If they brand Palestine Action a terrorist group then - oh my goodness - I'm one of them too," said Eleanor, a mother from Rotherhithe, south London. "Whether I do something or not - I'm a terrorist," she said. Eleanor had come to support the group at a demonstration in Trafalgar Square. She had just heard a statement from Home Secretary Yvette Cooper, who said Palestine Action will be banned following "a nationwide campaign of direct criminal action". It means not just the core members, but anyone coming out to support them in protests such as this one would be committing an offence punishable of up to 14 years in prison. Eleanor said she started supporting the group ever after the previous home secretary Suella Braverman dubbed the pro-Palestinian protests hate marches. Eleanor added that this latest move by the government won't stop her supporting Palestine Action, but she worries what would happen to her children if she was prosecuted. There are other, legal, pro-Palestinian groups that people can support, but those at Monday's rally believe their group was the one having the biggest impact. "They are scared of us," said another protester, Frieda. "Now they will make our lives hell and I don't know how anyone in this country can stand for that." Air of defiance palpable She was carrying a banner that read "Free Political Prisoners" and said several of her friends had been arrested for activities related to Palestine Action (PA). She added: "We won't be intimidated by this, and we will come out in bigger numbers now." This air of defiance was palpable as protesters sat in the road blocking traffic around a section of Trafalgar Square chanting: "We are all Palestine Action!" 1:33 Many interpreted the home secretary's statement as a blatant move to shut them up, by a government embarrassed by last week's security breach at RAF Brize Norton where PA activists sprayed paint on two RAF planes. A placard at the demonstration read: "Oh I spilled some paint - does that make me a terrorist?" Ms Cooper made it clear that her actions were not the result of an isolated incident. In her statement, she referred to repeated criminal action "against businesses and institutions, including key national infrastructure and defence firms". She added that Palestine Action's activity had "increased in frequency and severity" since 2024 and "become more aggressive, with its members demonstrating a willingness to use violence". She made reference to an attack against the Thales defence factory in Glasgow in 2022, where she said "the group caused over a million pounds of damage, including to parts essential to submarines". In this case, several members were prosecuted. But protesters claim this makes their point. Wearing a Free Palestine T-shirt, protester Robert said: "If you don't agree with those things, there are laws that can be used - but acts of terrorism have not been committed." Another protester, Mia, said: "It would feel farcical if it wasn't so scary." Her banner read: "Yvette Cooper - if you are anti anti-genocide you are pro-genocide." 'Sinister development' No doubt there were many at the protest who simply want an end to the violence in Gaza and feel the government is complicit in its support for Israel. In that sense, it feels like a sinister development for their right to protest to be curtailed. Palestine Action has stated that its mission is to "break the tools used to commit" genocide - an allegation Israel denies. The problem is that PA appears to have identified UK defence firms and military hardware, as part of those tools - things that are actually used to defend this country. In the view of the home secretary, this has crossed the line from simply criminal to extremist - and a threat to national security.
