The value of their house has risen by 17% in a year, according to one of Britain's little known property hotspots: As house prices fell at their slowest rate in a decade, some lucky owners have seen the value of their house rise by more than a year

Consider again if you think every corner of the UK has seen house prices plummet due to rising inflation, higher interest rates, and the general cost of living crisis. Despite the Office of National Statistics (ONS)'s declaration earlier this week that house prices in the United Kingdom have dropped £6,000 in 12 months (faster than they have in more than 12 years), a surprising number of areas have bucked the trend, giving the impression that the 2024 housing market will be better than some of the gloomy forecasts.

According to Kim Kinnaird, the head of Halifax Mortgages, national economic worries have been outweighed by local factors in several states.

Yes, the Same 1960s Song Is Used in Multiple Seasons of "Black Mirror"

www.popsugar.co.uk, June 19, 2023
"Joan Is Awful," the titular character, played by Annie Murphy, steps into a bar to meet her ex-boyfriend just a few minutes into the first episode of season six of "Black Mirror." The singer croons, "You can blame me, try to shame me." The song isn't particularly relevant to the scene or even the overall story line, but eagle-eared followers of Charlie Brooker's long-running technology-is-terrifying series certainly will recognize it. The track in question is a 1964 song penned by Irma Thomas, who wrote "Toy Story" (tune fame) and titled "Anyone Who Knows What Love Is" (Will Understand). "Joan Is Awful" is the sixth episode of the series "Black Mirror" — it appears that it appears only once a season.

Here's a mixed bag from Season 6 of "Black Mirror": a mixed bag

www.popsugar.co.uk, June 15, 2023
The paparazzi's ethics is a common topic among Hollywood's top celebrities. The tense relationship between photographers and celebrities has long been documented — and often dangerous (see Prince Harry and Meghan Markle's latest "near catastrophic" paparazzi encounter in NYC). Charlie Brooker's view of the subject is clear in the first few minutes of the aughts-set episode: a pap finds photographs of a closeted actor with his male friend, and despite the actor's pleas, the photographer (Zazie Beetz) sells the photographs. The outing resulted in the celebrity's suicide by suicide. By the time, the tragic conclusion comes full circle, after a twist that is a little less grounded in reality and more in mythology. Mazey, a celebrity, has faded from the public eye, and Day's character and other paparazzi have taken it upon themselves to track her down amid what seems to be a traumatized woman's breakdown. It's clear she's a bigger threat to more than herself if they finally have Mazey cornered.

Mrs Durrell turns Rambo in a holiday from hell, according to CHRISTOPHER STEVENS

www.dailymail.co.uk, September 21, 2022
CHRISTOPHER STEVENS: We saw Keeley Hawes on the beach for the last time, but she was busy with her four children and nursing a crush on the village taxi driver. The Durrells are not the Durrells, not Crossfire (BBC). Joeley's character is based on the sea, and she has a crush on a taxi driver (well, he runs a limo hire company). However, she's embroiled in a terrorist attack on a tourist resort rather than romantic muddles and amateur zoos. Corpses pile up by the sea. A teenage psychopath shoots the mystery boyfriend in the chest. Jo is a detective who goes looking for the murderous fanatics with her handgun.
