Succession and Ferris Bueller's Day Off star Alan Ruck crashes his TRUCK into popular Hollywood pizza. And if you did spend a lot of time in Wimbledon’s fallout zone, this was a helpful thing to keep in mind.

The only chapter which raised a titter with me was the one featuring the Jungian analyst and his wine box. There are some interesting and funny parts to it but they weren´t worth the struggle with the rest of it. The hero – or antihero, depending on one’s perspective, feminist inclinations, sense of humor or lack thereof – has quite a few qualms in the beginning and he is so aggravated by his wife, Elinor, and rather obsessed with a historical killer, Everett Maltby, that he concocts a plan to become The Wimbledon Poisoner – although he also entertains some visions wherein he is agitating a pick ax or other potentially deadly instruments. In The Wimbledon Poisoner , Williams shifts his focus so far from central London that the city intrudes only occasionally.The suburb is now Williams’s primary landscape – he presents suburbia as a more genuine alternative to city life. First published in 1990, this has not borne the test of time very well and now seems trite, pretentious and simply empty nonsense. I only finished it because I don't like not completing books and because I wanted to see if it redeemed itself (spoiler - it didn't). Daniel Radcliffe breaks down in tears in FIRST trailer for documentary about his Harry Potter stunt double.

You will laugh at the absurdities of the average and everyday – but the body count will be fairly high. Police wearing gas masks descend on leafy London suburb after 'containers with unknown contents' were left. The novelist Nigel Williams doesn’t challenge the conventional view of the commuter suburb as drab and uniform – the abode of the little man. Heidi Klum reveals behind-the-scenes look of THAT Peacock Halloween costume (which took SIX HOURS to complete! Lindsay is, as always, giving his all, and his all is the absolute minimum required as he delivers seemingly dozens of monologues and several lengthy speeches.Undeterred he has a go again at the wake of his best friend with even more horrific results as this time there are three deaths and yet again not one of them is his wife.

British Soap Awards are CANCELLED: ITV make surprise announcement ceremony will not take place next year. I get that the main character is supposed to be morally flawed, but too many other characters also express these views and it's all done in a chummy, haha, nudge nudge, just saying what we all think kind of way. Elite New York model agency DROPS fashion model and interior designer Camilla Deterre after she posted. On April 28 th 1882, Dr George Henry Lamson was hanged by William Marwood at Wandsworth prison, aged just 30.

While Robert Rankin’s ‘Brentford Trilogy’ – The Antipope, the first title, appeared in 1981 – relies on the underestimation of suburban life, The Wimbledon Poisoner offers a more complex perspective. Perhaps the problem was that either central character Henry really was a nasty piece of work and there was nothing remotely funny about that, or we were going to be treated to a Nigel Williams-style ending in which none of it actually happened, in which case (my inner cynic kept reminding me) the joke was on me as a reader and I wasn't going to dignify it with so much as a titter. When the publisher Karim Jackson declines Henry’s monumental ‘The Complete History of Wimbledon’ on the grounds that it won’t appeal to international readers, Henry reflects that Wimbledon is ‘as much a mystery to them as the Orinoco was to Henry’. Rishi Sunak and US Vice President Kamala Harris meet and agree on Israel's right to defend itself - and vow.
