Best of Brakfast Episode 174 Yana Bolder
At the time, we genuinely believed 90s fashion looked incredible. Then we looked back years later and wondered: “What on earth were we wearing?” And yet somehow, against all odds, loads of it came back again. Suddenly shops are full of clothes that look suspiciously familiar, younger generations are dressing like old school holiday photos, and many Gen Xers are experiencing the strange moment of seeing outfits return that they […]
West Ham have been relegated from the Premier League. Nuno Espirito Santo's side were unable to overcome the odds on the final day of the season to catch Tottenham Hotspur. The Hammers will now spend next season in the Championship, bringing an end to their fourteen-year stay in the top flight. West Ham needed to win their final match, whilst hoping for a Spurs defeat, to maintain their position in […]
Some songs are good. Some songs are huge. And then there are the songs that instantly feel like summer the second you hear them. The tracks that soundtrack BBQs, road trips, beer gardens, beach holidays, windows-down car journeys and those rare British summer evenings where nobody wants to go home yet. You hear the opening few seconds and suddenly it feels warmer outside. These are the songs that became true […]
US President Donald Trump has said Iran is getting a lot closer to reaching an agreement with the US on the war, while Tehran also signalled recent progress. Both sides remain cautious, and Iran's foreign ministry confirmed nuclear weapons would not be part of any initial proposals. Trump told CBS News he has seen a draft agreement, insisting it would absolutely prevent Iran from obtaining a nuclear weapon. Temperatures will […]
British people spend most of the year complaining it’s cold, wet and grey. Then a heatwave arrives and suddenly nobody knows what to do with themselves. The country melts instantly. Trains struggle. Fans sell out. And bedtime becomes a nightly battle against overheating and sticking to the bedsheets like cling film. Unlike countries built for extreme heat, most UK homes seem specifically designed to trap warmth forever. Which means getting […]
At least four people have been killed and ninety others are trapped following a coal mine accident in northern China. The incident occurred late on Friday night at the Liushenyu site in Changzhi City, where two hundred and forty-seven workers were underground. Reports suggest carbon monoxide levels had exceeded safe limits, and sixteen of those who remain trapped are in a critical condition as intensive rescue efforts continue. A man […]
British television has given us many things over the years. Legendary sitcoms. Awkward game show moments. Questionable 80s fashion choices. But perhaps the greatest gift of all? Catchphrases. Those lines that somehow escaped the television and became part of everyday British life. The kind of phrases people still quote decades later, often without even realising where they originally came from. Some instantly transport you back to sitting in front of […]
Single-sex spaces such as changing rooms, toilets and hospital wards must be used on the basis of biological sex, according to new guidance from the equalities watchdog. The approved code of practice from the Equalities and Human Rights Commission means trans women should not use female facilities, and recommends they be offered gender-neutral alternatives. However, leaving trans people without any facilities would be unlikely to be proportionate. A sentencing date […]
Some albums are just collections of songs. Others become part of people’s lives. They soundtrack first jobs, first cars, school discos, breakups, holidays, late nights, road trips and moments that somehow stay crystal clear decades later. For Gen X especially, albums mattered differently. You bought them physically. You studied the artwork. You learned every lyric because skipping tracks wasn’t as easy back then. And if you spent your hard-earned money […]
Aston Villa have won the Europa League following a three-nil victory over German side Freiburg in Istanbul. Youri Tielemans, Emi Buendia and England international Morgan Rogers scored the goals to ensure Villa claimed their first major trophy in thirty years, and a first European title since 1982. The Prince of Wales, an avid supporter of the West Midlands club, was among the fans celebrating in the stands on Wednesday evening. […]
