Who is the best James Bond? Every 007 actor from worst to best
Celebrity Now One Of Pete Davidson’s Exes Slammed Him As An “Absolute Joke Of A Human Being” In A Scathing IG Comment — But There’s Actually More To The Story BuzzFeed - Ellen Durney • 28m As you may have heard, Pete Davidson found himself in the headlines last week after he aired his thoughts on influencers. Calling out women content creators in particular, Pete told Variety: "It's bad, and it makes me sad, you know.
Who is the best James Bond? Every 007 actor from best to worst
Patrick Smith It's one of cinema's most totemic roles: 007. If we ignore the spoofery of 1967's Casino Royale , six actors have slipped into the tuxedo since Sean Connery first said “Bond. James Bond” at a card table in Dr No (1962), each putting their own particular stamp on the world's most famous spy. We had the Welshman who brought Shakespearean gravitas, the Australian who lasted one film, the Irishman who drove an invisible car. None of them were without their merits. But who did it best?
Who is the best James Bond? Every 007 actor from best to worst
8 hours ago FBI Director Kash Patel is engaged to his country singer girlfriend, Alexis Wilkins, the pair announced in a post to X on Sunday evening. Wilkins, 27, posted a black-and-white photo of herself standing with Patel, 46, flashing her hand in front of them to show off her ring with the caption, “Went …

Ice Cream on the ‘Moove’
The Howling Cow Dairy Education Center and Creamery is the place to go if you want a double-scoop with sprinkles and a behind-the-scenes look at where your ice cream comes from. Now, there’s a way for that sweet treat and inside scoop to come to you. A new Howling Cow ice cream truck is hitting the road to visit campus events. Dubbed the MooMobile, this 2018 Ford has the capacity for staff to dole out over 3,000 servings of ice cream and answer countless questions about dairy farm operations.
Little Bird review – no wonder this masterly drama has already cleaned up awards
Few dramas will enrage you as much as Little Bird. Not because it's in any way hokey or problematic. On the contrary. Based on the real story of the Sixties Scoop – a period in Canada from the mid-1950s to the 1980s, when an estimated 20,000 First Nations children were forcibly removed from their families and adopted by non-Indigenous families – this heartbreaking tale is restrained and carefully measured. Melodrama is swerved, letting the injustice at this story's core slowly metastasise.
Øya, Oslo review – Joyous festival with enough heart to bring even Robert Smith to tears
In recent years, Oslo’s Øya Festival has faced opprobrium. It was sold to private equity firm KKR in 2024, which also holds some unrelated investments in Israeli companies. In a country that prides itself on humanitarianism – in which corruption and scandal are vanishingly rare – this was a fairly sustained controversy that peaked last summer, with calls to boycott the festival. This year the mood has cooled somewhat, and the wealthy petro-state’s citizens seem content to fly Palestine flags.
‘A gentle poetry in the everyday’: why The Straight Story is my feelgood movie
What was your gateway into the Lynchian empire? Maybe it was the elliptical horror of Mulholland Drive, with its labyrinth of dream and deceit. Perhaps it was the small-town banality of Twin Peaks or Blue Velvet, the gee-whiz vernacular and cherry-pie dispositions hiding a malice so pure behind those white picket fences.
Mad Cool Festival 2026, review – Revellers worship our rock saviours Nick Cave, Lorde and Florence Welch
If Mad Cool’s name could be distilled to a single gesture, it would be the shaka: that thumb-and-pinkie surfer salute, deployed here without a hint of irony. But move past that and you’ll be rewarded with a lineup this year that is second to none. The festival opens with Wolf Alice, prize-laden leading lights of a generation whose decade-long mastery of genre-fluid rock is unimpeachable. Fusing pristine melodies to snarling guitar work, the London quartet never disappoint.
The unexpected story behind the unofficial Scotland World Cup song
It begins with a spare, pulsing electro beat, as if pacing the centre circle before kick-off. When it repeats, another layer drops, then another, the tension thickening bar by bar. Next comes the voice: deadpan and insouciant, yet capable of soaring.

Emily Blunt: How the reliably brilliant Brit became adored by simply everyone
At the UK premiere of his new sci-fi blockbusterDisclosure Day, Steven Spielberg was rhapsodising about his leading lady. He'd been in awe of Emily Blunt, he said, ever since she stole the show in The Devil Wears Prada back in 2006. "This is a force of nature and one of the nicest people in the world," he added. "I'm so lucky that she liked our script." He is far from the only one so smitten.

‘People know me as an actor, but I spend much more time writing’: Jemaine Clement in ‘Alice and Steve’ - (Getty) Wearing dark double denim and a white T-shirt, with thick black Hockney-esque glasses balanced on his nose, Jemaine Clement walks into the lounge of a smart London hotel and immediately points to the medley of ornamental headwear hanging behind me. “You should put that on,” he remarks, gesturing towards a gentleman’s top hat.

Taylor Swift's Likeliest Wedding Guests, Ranked by Era
From left: Travis Kelce and Taylor Swift in January 2024. Many of us know Taylor Swift as the hitmaker who soundtracked the 2010s and 2020s with somber breakup tracks and upbeat pop anthems. Perhaps what helped Swift, 36, withstand is that she shifts her tone and aesthetic, allowing each album to mark a particular era in her life. Although, it is not just the music that changes, but also, her social circle.
The scratchy, inky anarchy of Quentin Blake’s unmistakable illustrations
In 1982, Roald Dahl sent Quentin Blake a parcel. Wrapped in brown paper and tied with string, it contained a single sandal – one of the author’s own, and unlike anything Blake had ever encountered. This, Dahl explained, was what the BFG should be wearing. The 24ft-tall, dream-blowing hero of Dahl’s much-loved children’s novel had previously been drawn in clumsy knee-length boots. The sandal changed all that. Blake drew it; Dahl rewrote the text accordingly.

Man who was on hantavirus cruise ship says Nebraska isolation center feels like ‘prison'
A man from New York State who was on board the Hondius cruise ship — which became the center of an outbreak of hantavirus that killed three people earlier this month — compared being forced to quarantine at the Nebraska health facility to being in “prison.” The 30-year-old man, who asked not to be identified because of concerns for his safety and harassment of other named passengers, told NBC News by phone that he wants to be able to quarantine at home.
