Caroline Flack T

1979-2020

he country was left shocked and devastated last week, following the tragic death of Caroline Flack. The 40-year-old presenter – one of the nation’s most well-known and loved TV stars – died in her London home after taking her own life. The news was announced by her family, who said in a statement, “We can confirm that our Caroline passed away today, the 15th of February.”

The news was met by an outpouring of grief from her friends, colleagues and fans on social media, as they paid tribute to the “lovely”, “kind” and “fun” Caroline. Olly Murs, who presented The X Factor with Caroline in 2015, wrote, “Caz... f**k this hurts! My heart is forever broken… I’ve lost something today that I’ll never ever get back… and that’s you.”

Good friend Dawn O’Porter said, “Her laugh was my favourite laugh. We had so much fun.

Honestly, we laughed until we wet ourselves. All the time. She was so funny, and so silly, and there were brilliant, brilliant times. Her life had so much happiness in it.”

Iain Stirling – who worked

www.heatworld.com 29 February-6 March 2020

with Caroline on Love Island since it started in 2015 – posted, “Today my friend wandered into heaven. I bet it was in slow motion and sassy as f**k. Love you x”.

He also narrated a tribute to her on the Monday episode of Love Island, after the show had taken a two-day break out of respect.

“We are all devastated that Caroline, a much-loved member of our Love Island family, has passed away. Our thoughts are with her family and friends at this dreadful time. Caroline and me were together from the very start of Love Island. Caroline, I want to thank you for all the fun times making our favourite show.

You were a true friend to me.

I’m gonna miss you, Caz.” At the time of her death, Caroline had been going through a tough period, following her arrest on 12 December after an argument with her boyfriend Lewis Burton. She was arrested and later charged with assault by battery. She stepped down from presenting the winter series of Love Island in South Africa, and was replaced by her friend Laura Whitmore. Although Lewis didn’t press charges and refused to cooperate with

the prosecution, she appeared in court on 23 December, where she was banned from making contact with Lewis until her trial, which was scheduled for 4 March. It had been claimed that the day before she died, Caroline had been informed by the CPS that the trial would go ahead, and friends had been staying with her as she struggled to deal with the news.

Following her death, Lewis, who had been with Caroline since last summer, posted a picture of the two of them and said, “My heart is broken we had something so special. I am so lost for words I am in so much pain I miss you so much I know you felt safe with me you always said I don’t think about anything else when I am with you and I was not allowed to be there this time I kept asking and asking. I will be your voice baby I promise I will ask all the questions you wanted and I will get all the answers nothing will bring you back but I will try make you proud everyday.

I love you with all my heart.”

Since her arrest, Caroline – who had a twin sister, Jody, and elder siblings Elizabeth and Paul – had remained mainly silent, but last week, her mum Christine released an unpublished

Her showstopping Strictly Charleston

Picking up the Bafta for Love Island in 2018

Instagram post Caroline had wanted to put up, so she could “get her little voice heard”.

Christine said, “It was describing how she was feeling and what she had gone through – no more than that. It was not blaming anyone or pointing any fingers.

As Carrie would say, ‘In a nasty world, just be kind.’”

In the post, Caroline wrote, “I have always taken responsibility for what happened that night.

Even on the night. But the truth is... It was an accident. I’ve been having some sort of emotional breakdown for a very long time.”

She ended it with, “I can’t spend every day hidden away being told not to say or speak to anyone. I’m

sosorrytomyfamilyforwhat Ihavebroughtuponthemand for what my friends have had to go through. I’m not thinking about how I’m going to get my career back. I’m thinking about how I’m going to get mine and my family’s life back.”

Born on 9 November 1979, Caroline grew up in Norfolk. At 16, she left home to go to stage school in Cambridge before

www.heatworld.com 29 February-6 March 2020

moving to London to fulfil her ambition of breaking into TV. Her twin Jody became a film editor, before getting married and having three children. In her autobiography, Caroline wrote about what her life could have been like.

“Most people don’t know what their life would have been like if they’d chosen another path. But I do,” she explained.

“A-levels, not stage school.

Learning to drive at 17 rather than 27. Having three gorgeous children. Being settled rather than putting my life into bin bags every few months, spending half the time weeping, half the time head over heels in love.”

She got her first big break in

2002, when she appeared in Bo’ Selecta!, as well as presenting the International Pepsi Chart Show.

She then co-hosted CBBC show TMi with Mark Rhodes and Sam Nixon for two years, and Sam recently said, “We screen tested with lots of fantastic presenters for TMi, but I will never forget when Caroline came in.

I remember being on a train after that particular screen test and calling our producer and telling him that she’s the one. She was a great presenter, we instantly got on with her and she made me and Mark look funnier than we were with her unbelievably beautiful, infectious laugh.”

After fronting the BBC’s Eurovision semi-final show in 2008, Caroline joined forces with former footballer Ian Wright for the reboot of Gladiators, and also won the role of presenting

The following year, she hosted sports quiz The Whole 19 Yards with Vernon Kay, and also presented backstage coverage of the BRITs. But it was in 2011 that she became a household name, when she was given the gig of hosting The Xtra Factor with Olly Murs. The pair became a huge hit and their

chemistryandfriendshipwas clearforalltosee.Addressing rumourstheyweremorethan just friends, she said, “Once you’ve gone through that ‘almost’ phase, you know it’s never going to happen. People say we’re like Ross and Rachel from Friends, but we’re more like Joey and Rachel. Together as a couple, it would just be so wrong.”

They hosted for two years before Olly left and she teamed up with Matt Richardson. She quickly became one of the hottest and most in-demand stars on TV, and

However,shealsosaidshe struggleddeeplyafterlifting theGlitterballtrophy.“IfeltlikeI wasbeingheldtogetherbyapiece of string, which could snap at any time,” she explained. “People see the celebrity lifestyle and assume everything is perfect, but we’re just like everyone else.

We’re told that 20-year-old Brooklyn is preparing to propose to his girlfriend of five months Nicola Peltz after deciding she is “The One” and not wanting to waste any time. However, it is causing a few arguments between his parents, as dad David thinks he’s moving too fast while mum Victoria couldn’t be happier.

“After his last relationship [with model Hana Cross], which was quite volatile, Vic is just so happy that Brooklyn is with someone

about the first of her children getting hitched, whenever that may be. We’re told, “Vic knows that, as mother of the groom, she won’t have as big a role as the mother of the bride, but that doesn’t mean she’s going to sit in the background. She wants Brooklyn to have the best of everything and for it to be a wedding everyone talks about.

She knows Nicola respects her as a designer, so she can give her tips and advice with the dress.

they start talking engagements,” says the insider. “He would prefer Brooklyn to have his career sorted first. But Vic has pointed out how much happier Brooklyn is, and how much harder he’s been working on his photography, because he’s so much more stable.

It’s caused some arguments with David. Vic thinks Brooklyn having the responsibility of a marriage would make him grow up. Nicola’s dad is a successful billionaire – she really admires him and expects Brooklyn to be equally ambitious.

It’s been a huge wake-up call.”

And it seems we weren’t the only ones, as her fellow Girls Aloud bandmates are said to be taking this as a sign they should be seriously considering a reunion.

The Duke and Duchess of Sussex have already given the public a slight clue as to the direction they’re hoping to head in with their future careers, after appearing as speakers at an event organised by bank JP Morgan in Miami recently – reportedly for a rather large fee.

So, don’t expect a Kylie Jenner make-up collaboration anytime soon. Instead, it seems the Duchess is hoping her squad will be full of celeb activists. “Meghan wants to be friends with stars who share the same values as her, and make big efforts in their careers to give back and improve the world when it comes to issues like climate change and mental health. She wants to assemble a worthy A-list squad that will help secure her and Harry’s new life in America, and prove that they don’t need the royal family to achieve their goals.” ■ KATIE HOLLOWAY

And this latest crop of would-be romancers are more hapless – and hopeless – than ever, bless ’em. Already we’ve seen TOWIE legend Amy Childs and Made In Chelsea regular Olivia “Liv” Bentley square up over the same man; Dean Gaffney get pied off on his quest for a date, and TOWIE’s

before,soitwasmortifying,” saysLiv,whosplitwithher MIC boyfriendDigbyEdgleyamonth before joining the agency. “I was sweating like something else. But I think I learnt more about dating and myself in relationships. I’d never go back inside the Chelsea bubble.” Amy C – who’s making her triumphant return to reality TV after having her two-year-old daughter Polly and one-year-old son – agrees it was a massive jump

into the deep end. “Any boy I meet has got to be with me, but he’s also got to love my kids,” she says.

“Going dating is hard, but we come as a package. It’s us three together and that’s the main thing.” As for her apparent rivalry with Liv, Amy insists (maybe a bit too much) that “we’re really good friends”, before adding, “We like the same guys, so good luck, hun.”

“I actually think that Liv has been the craziest and naughtiest,” says Paul.

“You’ll see what I mean.”

Finally, it wouldn’t be Celebs Go Dating without the ever-dashing Tom, whose job is to give the nervous celebs that pep in their step before they hit the town.

Tradition dictates that he always develops a soft spot for one lucky celebrity dater – and this series is no different. “Lockie was just fascinating,” he confesses with a twinkle in his eye.

“He’s a Daim bar, really.

He’s crispy on the outside, but very soft on the inside.” ■

the scenes, including snaps of Suzie in a balloon-filled bath (while confessing there were naughtier photos – with a lot less balloons – that they wouldn’t be sharing with the general public.)

The birthday girl was also treated to a two-tiered wedding – sorry, birthday – cake, captioned “Mum”, a feathery bouquet and a blazing fountain candle that could very easily have scorched a fake eyelash. The lucky lady was clearly touched, writing online, “I love you two more than words can say, you’re beautiful inside and out – kind, caring, generous. I’m a lucky mummy to have you both, thank you for everything you do for me,” before also thanking all the florists, cake-makers, and balloon-blowers involved.

It’s well known that the Faiers and their mum love a party or three. In January, the trio headed to New York to celebrate Billie’s

30th birthday, after reportedly annoying their fellow passengers in first class by singing and laughing before the plane had even taken off. This also followed a seriously swanky Great Gatsby-themed do in the UK, which included a nine-tier cake,a Champagne tower and glittering, floor-length frocks. But, seriously, how many parties is too many when you’re celebrating thepeople you love? Sam, 29, and Billie,30, have often paid tribute to their mum for raising them largely by herself after their stepdad Dave Chatwood was imprisoned.

“It’s always been the three of us,” Sam said last year. “She’s so strong and she’s been through such a rough time.”

To be fair, we reckon all three of them seem pretty resilient– they’re probably dealing with more hangovers than the restof us put together. ■ CHARLOTTE OLIVER

The couple – who are also parents to Theodora, seven, and Charlton, five – have been open about their fertility struggles in the past, telling fans when Coco was born in September 2018 that it had been “a very long and difficult path to get here”. Last year, Ayda also spoke on

What will we see from you this series?

So much happened last year in my life I’m probably the one that girls relate to. I was like, “For f**k’s sake, I’m 30, single and living with my dad.”

I cry a lot at the beginning, but things do get better!

Are you dating anyone?

I find it really hard to date like, how do I do it? Do I just go to clubs? I can’t date random people and I find it really hard to trust somebody. I got [celeb

Is it weird seeing the other OGs settle down?

It’s mad! Gaz is putting pics in the group message about his kids, sending us pictures at 4am, saying, “This is what I’ve got to deal with before I come to work.” And I’m like, “God, I’m just getting in from the club at that time!” ■

GAZ: ‘I USED TO THINK HAVING A BABY WAS EASY’

H Gaz and baby Primrose

e was the party boy of the north-east, the lad Charlotte Crosby tried and failed to tame, but it’s safe to say that life is looking very different for Gary Beadle. He’s now a proud father of two (yes, two!) children after he and his fiancée Emma McVey welcomed daughter Primrose in December they’re also parents to two-year-old son Chester and nights out have been swapped for night feeds.

As the 31 year old tells us, he’s gained a lot of respect for mothers along the way.

“I used to see a woman with a pram

and a baby, and think, ‘That’s a bit easy’, but I can’t stress enough how much respect I now have for mums,” he tells us. “I used to think if you’re at home with the baby, you’re watching TV all day. Nope! If Emma goes out for, like, three hours, I’m like, ‘What do you mean? When will you be back?’

Thenthey’recrying,needingthebottle, then it’s nap time and I’m just like, ‘F**k me.’” Does that mean Gaz, the notorious party animal is now in bed by 10pm with a cup of cocoa? “Ten o’clock? Are you mad?” he tells us.

Who’s showing up the rest of mankind this week?

He found love again

HUSBAND GOALS #176

CALVIN HARRIS

We first got a good look at the record maker’s washboard abs five years ago, when he got his kit off in an Emporio Armani underwear campaign – and what a nice surprise it was. At the time, he was dating a little-known singer named Taylor Swift, so we respectfully declined to ogle.

He’s currently dating model Aarika Wolf, but we’ll allow ourselves a cheeky peek.

SPLASHNEWS.COM

Calvin – whose real name is actually Adam Wiles – went from geek to sleek after moving to LA, where he fully embraced the Californian lifestyle in all its green juice-drinking, teeth-whitening glory.

Still, underneath it all, we’re sure he’s still that mildly awkward Dumfries lad.

#43

He famously had one mega glow-up, transforming from (in his own words) a “spotty and extra gangly” DJ, sporting a black-dyed helmet of hair, into a perma-tanned sexpot.

And judging by the look of things, Calvin Harris has no intention of reverting to that. Seriously, that body didn’t just happen.

nthecocktailbar ofaswankywestLondon hotel,MeghanTrainor collapses into a leather armchair, sheds her oversized faux fur coat and lets her sweatshirt do the talking. Written across her chest in bright pink and turquoise letters, are the words, “Treat People With Kindness.”

Highly appropriate given the superstar musician’s caring big-sister vibe on The Voice UK. “It takes zero effort to be nice to someone and to strangers,” says Meghan, alluding to the words on her hoodie – which is from Harry Styles’ Fine Line apparel range – and setting the tone for her gorgeously honest interview with heat.

And she has plenty things to talk

about.Oneyearintohermarriageto SpyKids actorDarylSabara–theywed onher25thbirthday–Meghanisliving her best life. Not only is she crazy in love, she’s also understandably stoked about her career. Her new role as coach on The Voice, (she replaced fellow US singer and Cats star Jennifer Hudson, in January) was, she says, a “bucket list” achievement, and last month, she released her long-awaited third album Treat Myself.

At just 26 years old, Meghan has already spent six years in the spotlight.

Her 2014 debut single All About That Bass reached No1 in 58 different countries and urged us to “bring back booty”, cementing Meghan as an icon for female empowerment.

Now, with over 10.5million Instagram followers, she is one of the most influential pop stars on the planet.

INTERVIEW

Fanning out with Michelle Obama in 2018

You’ve had therapy.

What did you discover about yourself that was particularly eye-opening?

That I have a really bad problem with comparing myself to other people. I think it was because, in high school, Instagram blew up and ever since then… I can’t imagine what kids are feeling like growing up now, being on Instagram so young. I was rattled, and it’s beyond, “Who’s prettier?”

It’s, “Why don’t I have all the things they have?” Or, “Why isn’t my career at their level?”

Do you have social-media detoxes?

I have in the past and it’s been great. My new favourite thing is watching Dr Phil [McGraw, a clinical psychologist and TV personality in the US] on YouTube. That’s my therapy.

Do you feel pressure to be as honest and relatable as possible on social media?

I don’t ever feel pressure. I’ve only been myself, so if this is what people are digging and it helps

them feel better, that’s great.

Sometimes they’re going through some real tough shit. One girl was like, “My aunt just died of cancer,” and posted about it. It’s a great way for me to go in and say, “I’m here for you, I’m so sorry this happened.” Other girls will say, “Excuse my ugliness in this picture, but I had to post.” And I’m like, “Don’t say you’re ugly, you’re beautiful.” When I grew up, there wasn’t stuff like that. I couldn’t talk to Christina Aguilera. It feels powerful, important and great to be able to connect to them, to give them some kind of hope. A like on their page gives them all the joy in the world.

Your husband Daryl clearly brings you so much joy – how do you sustain a strong relationship in the public eye?

I don’t think it’s any different to a relationship that’s not in the public eye. He’s my best friend and I want

What would 25-year-old Meghan want to say to teenage Meghan?

I would play her the songs on my album and be like, “It’s OK,” especially Babygirl. I wrote that to my middle-school self, when everyone was like, “If you have a dream, believe in it and do it.”

But I was thinking, “That’s just not going to happen, so I’m going to figure out some other way.” I was always thinking, “What’s my plan B?” You didn’t think your music dream would happen?

I was like, “I’m too shy,” and, “How am I going to dance onstage?” I didn’t think any of my dreams could come true.

You clearly make your mental health a priority.

How do you help your own team to do the same?

All the gifts that I give them are massages, because all these human beings need is time.

I’ll be like, “Hey, go to bed!

Stop being awake.” If I can give them a gift, I’ll give them rest.

“Hands up if you’re living your best life”

to make surehe’s happy, and ifIcan change something or do something that makes him happy, I will.

We have a special love.

Everyonewhomeetsus says,“You’resoulmates.”

You’re a poster girl for normal-sized women.

What’s your relationship like with your body?

I’vehadtrainers,nutritionists– I’m just bigger, build-wise. It’s just my genetics. It’s all about acceptance. I’m doing the curve, hourglass thing.

Where is home for you?

I’m from the east coast – that’s why I love London, because it reminds me of the cold. I live in Los Angeles now and it just feels like vacationland. My house is amazing. I’m so lucky I get to live with my brothers [Ryan and Justin] and my four dogs, so it’s my happy place. One side of the house is the boys’ and the other side is for Daryl and me.

We can see the makings of a reality TV show…

Right? Many people have met with us and said, “We want to do a show.” But, so far, it’s never happened. ■

TOK? everyone is obsessed with Hisdermatologisttoldhim ithadprobablysavedhislife.

TikTokalsohitthenewswhen a practising US nurse posted a video that advised teens “the best way to prevent STDs is waiting for sex until marriage”. Nurse Holly – her username – deleted the video after a huge backlash from other users, with many calling for better regulation of the app, as it was unclear if she was even a real medical professional.

STAR POWER Celebrities have also played a huge role in increasing the app’s popularity. TikTok now hosts Justin Bieber, Lewis Capaldi and Will Smith, among others.

VictoriaBeckhamevenmade anappearance,orchestratedby sonRomeo.“Hecamehomethe other day and said, ‘I’ve just joined TikTok. Will you do a dance with me?’” Victoria recalled. “I was like, ‘Yeah, what should we dance to?’ He said Spice Girls. Then he took my phone, posted it on my Instagram and said, ‘That will get my numbers up.’”

TikTok also does collaborations – this year working with Love Island. A spokesperson explained how the popular hashtag challenges can work with brands and celebs, telling us, “Hashtag challenges can be developed to promote a particular product or service, or just raise brand

awareness.Aniceexample wouldbearecentcollaboration with LoveIsland, forwhich TikTok developed a whole series of hashtag challenges, including #twiceasnice inspired by the twins’ [Jess and Eve] entrance into the villa.”

LINING POCKETS As with any trailblazing product, the million-dollar (almost literally) question is, does anyone make money off it? While TikTok’s spokesperson won’t go into detail about the monetisation of the app for its users, influencers can reportedly earn up to $30k for a sponsored post, while celebs could secure six-figure deals.

Afterpostingavideoofherself reactingcolourfullytoherfirstsip ofkombucha,BrittanyTomlinson became an overnight sensation.

The 26-second clip now has 2.1million likes and has led to the Texas native appearing in a Super Bowl advert and raking in the dollars. “With TikTok, it literally is overnight,” she has said. “The idea of a TikTok celebrity is laughable, but it’s true. You don’t realise how much reach these videos have.” Brittany now has her sights on a Netflix special.

Andy Warhol may have predicted that “everyone will be world-famous for 15 minutes”, but we bet TikTok would still blow his mind. ■ KATIE HOLLOWAY

If there’s one girl we’re crushing on right about now, it’s Mahalia.

The singer has caught our eye thanks to her signature style of figure-hugging dresses and body suits, all of which work to make the best of her bangin’ curves.

And her style isn’t the only thing that’s got us going crazy.

Having earned a BRIT Award nomination for Best Female Solo Artist, she’s received a lot of recognition for her debut album Love And Compromise – a beautiful collection of soulful songs. And with Ed Sheeran and Jorja Smith as fans, it’s safe to assume she’s a pretty big deal.

MIDI SKIRTS Style ed Laura on making this trend work for you

F

rom pleated to pencil styles, printed to leather options, midis have been around for a while and it’s safe to say, they’re not going anywhere soon.

And with so many varieties available, there really is something to suit every shape and size.

No matter what your body shape, I’ve got the tips and tricks to make the trend work. The brilliant thing with midis is that they are ideal for leg-lengthening, even if you’re petite.

It’s all about getting the right length, whether that’s slightly above the ankle or just below the knee.

Silhouette is also important, as is balancing out your proportions, so think about what you want to emphasise. Don’t be afraid to show off your figure, it’s ultimately always going to be more flattering. But if you don’t feel brave enough to go for something figure-hugging, try fluted styles and A-line shapes that will skim your figure instead.

Street style

ASYMMETRIC If you want your legs to appear longer, asymmetric hems are perfect.

The uneven shape means the eye is drawn away from one focal point on your legs to give the illusion of length. Team with heels or flatforms if you want an extra boost.

There are worse locations to film in, right, Daniel Craig?

f, like us, you are beyond excited for the next 007 film and obsessed with all things Bond, a visit to his spiritual home of Jamaica should be on your bucket list. The super-spy returns to this magical island in No Time To Die (released 3 April), where we find him soaking up the Caribbean sun having left active service. Obvs, this would be a very dull plot, so when his mate from the CIA turns up, Bond hops off his sunlounger to save the world – probably. We have scouted out the best spots to channel your inner Bond, visiting some of the locations used for filming, and have discovered why Bond’s creator Ian Fleming was so inspired, he didn’t leave…

The adult-only Hideaway has its own entrance and check-in, so you don’t even have to see a child if you don’t want to. Everywhere smells delicious, and the gym and spa are good enough to tempt you away from the sunshine for a bit.

The river at Frenchman’s Cove

WORDS: DEBORAH HUGHES. PHOTOS: MGM

Spy on celebs To create your own Ursula Andress moment, get yourself along to James Bond beach at Oracabessa Bay. Also known as Laughing Waters, Fleming spent time writing about Bond here, and it was used as the location for Dr No, in which that iconic bikini scene was filmed in the ’60s. The beach bar is open on all sides and gives you perfect views of the mountains leading down into the sea. A few vintage film posters give a nod to Bond, but don’t expect a tacky 007-themed shop. Phew.

azure blue of the river is incredible, and you can spend most of the time on the swings hanging from the trees over the sea. It’s also worth taking a boat trip from The Blue Lagoon around to Monkey Island, where you can get a sneak peek at waterfront properties rented by A-listers, such as Rihanna, Serena Williams and Beyoncé. Next, swing by the Fountain of Youth – we spied a turtle while we were floating around in the clear blue waters of this paradise spot.

There’s such a laid-back vibe on this island that you can even hear the bamboo growing – yes, really!

We followed in the footsteps of Pixie Lott and took a bamboo rafting trip on the Martha Brae River. It’s so peaceful to hear the tropical birds singing while you float downstream. We’d also recommend a trip to Seven Mile Beach, the biggest stretch on the island. The Island Lux Beach Park lays on a traditional lunch, and afterwards, wander along the shore for more sun-worshipping.

JAMES BOND’S JAMAICA THE SPY’S LINKS TO THIS TROPICAL PARADISE

The first-ever Bond girl from the books – Vesper Lynd of Casino Royale – was named after a cocktail Ian Fleming had been given in Jamaica that contained frozen rum, fruit and herbs.

2

Two of Fleming’s famous heroines – Solitaire from Live And Let Die and Domino, from Thunderball – are named after rare Jamaican birds.

3

Jamaica was the film location for the fictional island of San Monique in Live And Let Die.

In the book The Man With The Golden Gun, Fleming based the Bond character and plot across many Jamaican locations, including Morgan’s Harbour Hotel, Green Island and Lucea.

ALCOHOL & WEIGHT LOSS THE FACTS

Olivia Attwood did Dry January before her boozy engagement party

Booze is often categorised as “empty calories”, as the calories it contains have no nutritional value. When you drink alcohol, your body focuses on burning the calories from the alcohol rather than burning fat.

Louise Thompson: sushi before Sauvignon

Drinking often leads to unhealthy food choices later in the evening, and leaves you less likely to spring out of bed, raring to go for your workout.

cottoning on to the tide of public opinion turning against crash diets. Yet, they still want to tell us all about their weight loss and talking about giving up alcohol is a more socially acceptable way to do it. The result is the same before-and-after photos and humble brags over our Instafeeds, making us feel inadequate about our own physiques.”

So, if you’ve found yourself inhaling as many units as possible in between dry periods or crowing about being #sobercurious, try moderation instead it might be just the thing for your body and your mind. ■

Regularly consuming small amounts of alcohol, rather than binge drinking at the weekend, is better for allowing your body to burn off the extra calories more efficiently.

Avoid sugary cocktails and beers, and opt for spirits with a low-calorie tonic.

White wine typically contains less calories than red. However, red wine has more antioxidants.

If I had unlimited money, I would go to Costa Rica – I’ve got my eye on it at the moment. I want to stay at the Oxygen Tree Top Villas in the rainforest.

In Hong Kong, there’s a bar in the Ritz at the top of the international ICC tower, and it’s the best bar I’ve ever been to. It’s absolutely stunning, but it’s a joke how expensive the drinks are. It’s the kind of bar you only have one drink in, as a glass of wine costs £24, but you go because of the view.

Hey, Jude

JUDE LEADS THE AUTEUR

Jude Law is teaming up with Oscar-winning writer/ director Taika Waititi (JoJo Rabbit) for a new TV drama series based on cult graphic novel series, The Auteur.

It’s about an eccentric film director, played by Law, and the series will be a satire on the whole crazy world of Hollywood.

LINE OF DUTY 6 BEGINS!

Filming has begun on the next series of Line Of Duty. The sixth instalment of Jed Mercurio’s police thriller will be set 18 months after the events of series five, and will feature a new case involving an enigmatic detective, played by Kelly Macdonald. Series regulars Vicky McClure, Martin Compston and Adrian Dunbar will all return.

The hit Spanish teen drama Elite is getting a third series, which will arrive on Netflix soon – 13 March, to be exact. The show, which is a bit like Skins meets Big Little Lies, revolves around a swanky private school, which has to let in some working-class pupils. Murder and mayhem ensue.

LIAR ,

S

A

eries one of Liar arrived two-anda-half years ago, and it was a hugely gripping success for ITV. Nearly 9.5million viewers tuned in for its finale, which climaxed with serial rapist Andrew Earlham (Ioan Gruffudd) dead in a ditch, his throat slit. The series, created by sibling TV drama hit factory the Williams brothers ( The Missing, Baptiste), revolved around teacher Laura Nielson (Joanne Froggatt) trying to prove that she had been date raped by plastic surgeon Earlham. Series two becomes a classic whodunnit, depicting a gaggle of possible suspects for the murder of Earlham, including, of course, our heroine Laura, who did manage to kidnap him at one point.

FLASHBACK AND FORTH

Series two is ostensibly set three weeks

,

after the events of the first, but it begins with a creepy flashback to when Earlham first met Nielson in her classroom. Indeed, Gruffudd’s sick and twisted character is still a constant presence in the new run, which cuts between the present-day investigation into who killed Andrew Earlham and the events that led up to his murder. Said investigation is fronted by a new character, detective Karen Renton – played by Katherine Kelly, following on from another recent cop role in Netflix’s Criminal.

She’s drafted in from the Met, but is assisted by local DS Rory Maxwell (Danny Webb).

SUSPECTS OLD AND NEW

It’s pretty clear that Laura is the prime suspect in the case, but there are plenty of other characters being lined up as other possible killers in the opening episode,

www.heatworld.com 29 February-6 March 2020

including couple Carl and Winnie Peterson, played by Howard Charles and Amy Nuttall. She is a nurse who worked with Earlham and bonds with Laura over their shared trauma, while her husband Carl is falling apart and behaving suspiciously in general. Laura’s seemingly sweet and lovely boyfriend Ian (Kieran Bew) is also high on the cops’ list once they start probing into his past. All in all, the return of Liar is as instantly riveting as you’d expect from the cunning Williams brothers. A textbook murder mystery is about to unfold. HHHH Boyd Hilton

wo adaptations of HG Wells’ classic sci-fi story within four months? Sure, why not?

Especially as there’s one huge difference between the two. Whereas the BBC’s three-part version took place in Edwardian Britain, this new eight-part epic sets itself in modern-day Europe.

Written by Misfits creator Howard Overman, and

here are three new drama series starting this week on ITV, and this might just be the most intriguing. Dawn French plays the title character, a busybody who knows everyone in the small coastal town where she lives, and they all know her.

She delights in gossiping about their lives, and when a radio journalist interviews her about the small town, she spouts forth way too much detail about the locals, leading to major fallout in the days and weeks following the show’s broadcast. In a series that’s intriguingly hard to pigeon-hole, French is typically great, and the strong ensemble cast includes Mark Heap, Julie Hesmondhalgh, Laurie Kynaston, Kerry Howard and Vicki Pepperdine.

THE PLOT Corporate lawyer Rob Bilott (Ruffalo) puts his career at risk when he switches sides, prosecuting chemical giant DuPont on behalf of farmers whose land has been poisoned. But the wheels of justice move slowly...

WHAT’S RIGHT WITH IT? While lacking the flashy charm of this genre’s most notable hit (Erin Brockovich), Dark Waters skilfully makes a complicated story amply engaging.

WHAT’S WRONG WITH IT? Anne Hathaway is short-changed as Rob’s wife, while Ruffalo fans may ponder if he really had to be made so physically unappealing to play a lawyer.

Heatoscopes Tuesday 25 February - Monday 2 March

The all-seeing Jan Jacques tells you what the stars have in store this week

LEO 23 Jul-23 Aug

SAGITTARIUS 22 Nov- 21 Dec

You are a practical soul at heart.

But this week, take a leap of faith and trust your creative side. Your spiritual 12th house is strong, spelling inspiration where it’s least expected, so go with it.

Elsewhere, shades of red are energising for you right now.

LUCKY ADVICE: Go with the flow

Procrastinate no more, Leo. Your super-strong 8th house is excellentforpersonalprojects, especiallythosethatarehealthrelated.Nowisprimetimetodo somethingforyou.Work-wise, yourcan-doattitudeisnoted bysomeonewhowieldspower.

LUCKY IDEA: Jumpingin

There’s nothing wrong with being a homebody, as you know. And with Mercury still retrograde, it’s the safest place. If you can, snuggle in and leave love/work decisions until mid-month. Elsewhere, let go of a nagging issue with a pal.

LUCKY SAYING: Home, weet home

TAURUS 20 Apr-20 May

VIRGO 24 Aug-22 Sep

CAPRICORN 22 Dec-19 Jan

Expect romantic thrills and spills, thanks to love planet Pluto. Be on red alert in bookish and possibly religious places, but don’t trust a flirt who is too full-on. Healthwise, stress-free long-term planets should ensure excellent energy.

LUCKY SONG: We Found Love

by Rihanna

Alittlefinancialdetoxisinorder, thanksto aninsistentVenus aspect.Timetotreatyourmoney andbillsthewayyouwouldawork task–efficientlyandcleanly.

Thenyoucanfeelsmug.

Elsewhere,youcantuneout apal’snegativity,youknow.

LUCKY BUDGET: Streamlined

You excel at making decisions nd moving swiftly on. Yet etrograde Mercury warns gainst that, especially with work and health matters. Also, our strong 4th house suggests home is where your heart really is ight now. Being with family is key.

UCKY VIBE: Comfy and cosy

GEMINI 21 May-20 Jun

LIBRA 23 Sep-22 Oct

AQUARIUS 20 Jan-18 Feb

Don’t let conflicting advice confuse you this week. You can make a tough call, but must shut out the chatter to hear yourself think.

Make some quiet time for yourself.

Money-wise, a helpful waxing moon means you should have extra earning power early in the week.

LUCKY SOUND: Silence

MostLibraswouldclone themselvesinordertoplease morepeople.Adouble-edged Venusaspectpropelsyouto helpothers,buttiresyouout.

Focusonwhatyouneed.

Money-wise,youmayprosper fromfamilyconnections.

LUCKY VIP: You

Even you need guidance, so don’t e quick to disregard advice at work. Just hear them out, then decide. Health-wise, a mystical Mars aspect suggests a more piritual form of exercise could hold your interest. Tai chi, yoga r something similar may suit you.

UCKY NOTION: Seeing both sides

CANCER 21 Jun-22 Jul

SCORPIO 23 Oct-21 Nov

Don’t rehash faults and fails thisweek.

Instead, visualise your aims. Nelson Mandela (also Cancer) said, “I thought of the day when I would walk free.”

A sweet Jupiter/Pluto aspect may help, hinting at happy chances in work and possible romance.

LUCKY STRENGTH: Seeing success

Don’tberateyourselfoverahas decision,nooneelseis.Takeat Confuciuswhosaid,“Thinkof thepastcan’tbemended.”You’ fromit.Money-wise,abrilliant Jupiteraspectspellsgoodluck LUCKY TRAJECTORY: Onwar andupward

CELEB SUDOKU

PISCES 19 Feb-19 Mar You wonder why love is so complex, but don’t overthink it – retrograde planets make that pointless anyway.

Things should iron out mid-month.

Meanwhile, a sweet Sun aspect says spoil yourself in a healthy way.

Soothing massage, anyone?

UCKY PATH: Smooth

Z-List

Because doing it with

numbers is way too easy Each of the four blocks must contain all the celebs - ie. Halle, Kate, Jessica and Kanye for the A-list grid – within its squares.

Each celeb can only appear once in a row, column or box.
