Steve McQueen (left) had a persistent inferiority complex towards Paul Newman. It began with the boxing biopic Somebody Up There Likes Me (1956) in which Newman led the cast as Rocky Graziano and McQueen had a small uncredited role. He vowed to overtake him. When McQueen was offered the role of The Sundance Kid opposite Newman in Butch Cassidy And The Sundance Kid (1969), he demanded top billing. This was denied, contract negotiations broke down and Robert Redford took on the part that was to make him a star. When casting for The Towering Inferno (1974) (right) took place, McQueen once again demanded top billing.

The next challenge for the former Iowa sensation is helping a league that has struggled for years to shed its 'little sister' label. And the early signs are good.

On Roux Down The River, everyone came by boat at the three Michelin-starred Thames-side restaurant, opened in 1972 by his father and uncle, Michelin was making some grand claims. 'There was no fine dining outside London,' he said, 'but it was a gamble that paid off' as well as Elvis Presley's to Jackie Onassis and Robert Redford's inegriance.'

Our questionnaires reveal that your results are important. They help us identify what kind of people we are. Thousands of pubs hold their own quiz nights every week. Few other occasions bring the generations of people together in the same way. And on television, they can have a huge effect. Britain had its own scandal in 2001 when contestant, the Coughing Major, was accused of cheating on Who Wants To Be A Millionaire? With the help of accomplices, we were able to get home. However, perhaps the biggest controversy of the University Challenge has been turned into a festival of political correctness, with some of whose answers being more or less impossible to answer, and many more (I suspect) being answered because so many teams now prepare for them.

Both Charles and Andrew were sent to Gordonstoun, a demanding board school on Scotland's remote north coast where their father, Prince Philip, had been sent. It was Charles' second attempt to compel him up so he'd be fit to rule the throne. The delicate youth would have to deal with freezing temperatures. The classrooms were unheated and fresh air was found to be beneficial to you, so the dormitory windows were left wide open as the boys slept, winter and summer. Charles was sent to Windmill Lodge, a long, narrow, stone-and-timber house with an asbestos roof and bare wooden floors. It was a temporary structure that had never been rebuilt by the RAF, and had never been updated. There were 14 hard wooden beds to a dorm, and no bare lightbulbs hung from the ceiling.

The nondescript white cardboard box lay in a shadowy corner of the attic, and was forgotten for years. The box was only opened when its disgusting contents were revealed. The pink suit worn by First Lady Jackie Kennedy on November 22, 1963, when her husband was shot dead in Dallas, was neatly folded inside, but it was still stained with blood of President John F Kennedy. In a new book about America's most popular First Lady, the shocking finding that the Chanel outfit, one of the most iconic pieces of clothing in history, sat unattended for two decades in the attic of Janet Auchincloss' Washington, DC home of Jackie's mother, Janet Auchincloss.

Leo Woodall, the rising British actor, is up for a 'Breakthrough' award at the South Bank Sky Arts Awards this Sunday, and I'm happy to learn that the White Lotus actor, pictured, has just been nominated for another major film role. Charismatic Leo, 26, will lead the cast of a best-selling memoir Awaiting In Paris. This spring, the casting was the talk of Cannes, and Leo is being likened by some to a young Jude statute - or even (whisper it) Robert Redford.

When Saudi Arabia beat Argentina by a second-half winner, no one in this region booed louder than Amanda Staveley. She is pictured right with her husband Mehrdad Ghodoussi, a British-Iranian businessman, right. After all, the glamorous dealmaker, a former Prince Andrew chum, has a good reason to support the Green Falcons, as the Saudi national football team is known. The 49-year-old woman owes the majority of her fortune - estimated to be up to £100 million - to brokering so-called 'deals in the desert' between oil-rich sheiks and a number of British companies, the most notable of which was the £305 million acquisition of Newcastle United Football Club by a Saudi-led consortium.

I'm 58 years old and I don't want to have sex again. And I'm positive I'm not alone. I believe there are millions of older people out there, including women who are extremely bored with other people's wobbbling bits, and people who go through the motions purely for the sake of keeping a husband or long-term partner happy, or because it is expected of us in a new relationship. However, it's probably - a new thought - that our happiness should come first. For how many women, in their 50s and finally free of a woman's biological cycles and functions, are really still gripped by the lust that once led us so enthusiastically to bed?How many post-menopausal women are getting dressed up or trussed up - or having the most vanilla of sex, for that matter - not out of a sense of duty or to stop him seeking it elsewhere or even in exchange for companionship, but because they truly desire it?

Socialite James Stunt (right), Petra Ecclestone's ex-husband, was accused of participating in a £266 million money laundering campaign, which was traced back to Hollywood's The Sting (right). A jury heard that large amounts of cash were used in an imaginative 'long con'sting operation against a victim who didn't know he'd been tricked at the time.

RICHARD KAY: It was a tale with unending tension for a master storyteller. The Horse Whisperer, Nicholas Evans' (right) 1995 debut book, has sold 15 million copies.

He calls his solicitor, afraid that all their children will be orphanaged soon, and a new will will be sent to his bedside.
