TOWIE Series 35 is set to heat up in the Indonesian sun as tongues are about to be wagging about a very surprising holiday romance.

We can reveal how a pair of ITVBe fan-favourites shared a kiss at Savaya Nightclub in Bali after the cast jetted off to the holiday hotspot.

Harry Derbidge and Freddie Bentley enjoyed a sweet night out the evening before their snog.

Away from the filming cameras, the pair looked completely relaxed as they enjoyed some time at Atomic Beach Bar with each other.

Other cast members will no doubt be in shock with this news, especially Harry’s ex Joe Blackman and his new love interest Junaid.

Harry and Joe’s split dominated TOWIE’s previous season – sparking the biggest feud of the season when Joe went off with their mutual pal.

At the time, we reported how bosses had to take emergency measures due to the explosive nature of the plotline.

Harry was left in tears when Joe told him the pair were sleeping together.

Harry’s furious cousin, Amy Childs, was then seen confronting Junaid and Joe in fiery scenes.

Junaid and Joe were seen looking loved up on an outing in October yet the pair split just two months after, with Junaid exclusively telling The Sun how Joe had been unfaithful.

Yet the drama will no doubt continue as the aftermath of Harry’s kiss unfolds.

Previously, we reported how the TOWIE cast had glammed up for filming in Bali.

Female cast members stripped to a series of stylish bikinis – yet had to halt their scenes after heavy rainfall.

Yet The Sun was first to report how two key cast members had snubbed the “most luxurious trip ever” – this being Lauren Goodger and mum of four Amy.

Meanwhile, Roman Hackett was also seen heading out but was not joined by his Love Island star girlfriend Matilda Draper after The Sun revealed she didn’t get her visa in time.

HAPPY CHAPTER

Yet we also reported how TOWIE is set to air two fresh series in 2025 as the future of the long-running show was confirmed.

It comes after the Essex-based programme has dominated screens for a whopping 15 years.

It comes after the TOWIE action has been streamed an impressive 45million times on ITVX during the past 12 months.

TOWIE loyals will also appreciate a spin off series featuring show OGs Tommy Mallet and Georgia Kousoulou, with a transmission name yet to be confirmed.

The pair – who share two kids – first met and found love on TOWIE back in 2014 will finally say I Do in a three part special produced by Objective Entertainment.

This follows on from the success of their Baby Steps series.

Paul Mortimer, Director of Reality Commissioning and Acquisitions at ITV, said “We are delighted to be celebrating two of our longest running reality franchises as they enter exciting milestone years, whilst also expanding both series, following the ever popular Tommy and Georgia as they embark upon new chapters.”

SNOOKER’S top stars have returned from Germany and head straight into the Championship League Winners’ Group.

The non-ranking tournament is continuing this week after a thrilling week of action in Berlin, where Kyren Wilson beat Barry Hawkins in a final-frame decider.

Wilson is among those back in action in Leicester, where he is joined by fellow former world champions Judd Trump and Mark Selby in a tricky snooker group stage ahead of a final four on Wednesday evening.

Here’s everything you need to know for the tournament.

When is the Championship League snooker 2025?

The Championship League groups took place from January 2 to January 25.

There are seven groups then a Winners’ Group – more on the format below.

The dates are as follows:

• January 3-4 – Group 1
• January 6-11 – Groups 2, 3 and 4
• January 20-25 – Groups 5, 6 and 7.
• February 4-5 – Winners’ Group and play-offs

Who is playing in the Championship League snooker 2025 and what is the format?

All the big hitters were slated to play, although Ronnie O’Sullivan withdrew from the non-ranking event in early January.

• Group 1 (Jan 3-4) – Chris Wakelin, Gary Wilson, Jak Jones, Hossein Vafaie, Pang Junxu, Ryan Day, Elliot Slessor
• Group 2 (Jan 6-7) – Ali Carter, Si Jiahui, Robert Milkins
• Group 3 (Jan 8-9) – Ronnie O’Sullivan, Kyren Wilson, Mark Selby
• Group 4 (Jan 10-11) – Barry Hawkins, Stuart Bingham, Jackson Page
• Group 5 (Jan 20-21) – Judd Trump, Tom Ford, Neil Robertson
• Group 6 (Jan 22-23) – David Gilbert, Jack Lisowski, Noppon Saengkham
• Group 7 (Jan 24-25) – Xiao Guodong, Zhou Yuelong, Matthew Selt
• WINNERS’ GROUP (Feb 4-5) – Hossein Vafaei, Si Jiahui, Kyren Wilson, Mark Selby, Matthew Selt, Judd Trump, Xiao Guodong

The Championship league is a round robin of eight groups of seven players.

The top four from each group qualify for a play-off with the overall winner going straight into the Winners’ Group.

The bottom two are eliminated totally from the competition, while the other four move into the next group, where they are joined by three more players.

This format continues through all seven groups until the Winners’ Group is filled.

The players are ranked by matches won, then most frames won, then least frames lost – if two players are tied, the player who won the head-to-head match finishes higher.

The play-off semi-finals are played between 1st and 4th and 2nd and 3rd, with the two winners meeting and then playing for a place in the Winners’ Group.

The overall winner secures a place in the 2025 Champion of Champions and earns a modest amount of prize money.

What TV channel is the Championship League 2025 on and can it be live streamed?

There will be no TV coverage in the UK but fans can stream all the action live on Matchroom Sport’s YouTube.

Table one will be on Matchroom Multi Sport and table two is on the Matchroom Pool channel.

Both of those are free to stream.

Alternatively, SunSport will blog the entire Winners’ Group and play-offs over the next couple of days.

CHAMPIONS LEAGUE icon Marek Hamsik now runs a chicken farm and a zoo.

The Napoli legend made 520 appearances for the club with his distinctive mohawk haircut.

His wife Martina is behind the idea[/caption]

But since hanging up his boots a year-and-a-half ago following a spell at Turkish side Trabzonspor, Hamsik balances being Slovakia‘s assistant manager and his love for farming.

Alongside his wife Martina and their three kids, the 37-year-old looks after chickens and has small zoo with ferrets and turtles in his homeland.

Hamsik told Sport24: “It’s a relatively new hobby of ours. It all started in April last year during Easter, when we ordered hatching eggs, from which we later hatched little chicks.

“During that time, we managed to set up and equip the chicken coop.

“The coop is custom-made. It is more like a hotel for chickens with built-in heating and ventilation, but also automatic doors that open in the morning so that we don’t have to get up and check on them.

“It is truly luxurious and the chickens are perhaps even better cared for than we are.

“To date, we have 29 of them, and they lay around two dozen eggs a day.

“We have a lot of them and I’m already thinking about opening a store as I take care of the chicken coop with pleasure.”

Hamsik admitted it was his wife’s idea to start the farm and they now have eggs for breakfast everyday.

On their animal kingdom, the former midfielder revealed: “Yes, it was her idea. She is a big animal lover in general, which she passed on to the whole family.

“If we could, we would have an animal shelter or a small zoo at home.

“Although we actually already have one, since we keep three dogs, a cat, the chickens, two turtles, six guinea pigs and two ferrets.

“We also had two roosters that hatched with us and we raised them ourselves, but since they are the same blood as the chickens, they couldn’t stay with us.”

Away from the animals, Hamsik opened a winery with his dad Richard and he boasts an impressive car collection that includes a Mustang and a Ferrari.

A YOUNG boy died when a large mirror fell on him in a department store while he looked at his reflection, an inquest heard.

Freddie Farrow appeared to touch the mirror using “very little force” when it toppled over at the Fenwick store in Colchester, Essex.

East News

The youngster was in Fenwicks in Essex when he was killed[/caption]

The five-year-old was crushed underneath the piece of furniture, which weighed up to 80kg, and suffered a “catastrophic” brain injury.

An inquest was told the mirror “must have been very near or on its balance point” when it fell.

Temporary Detective Chief Inspector Michael Pannell was called to the store on July 27, 2021.

He said there was broken glass on the floor and a “considerable amount of blood”.

The officer told the court there was a metal bracket on the wall, a metal bracket on the mirror and a wooden part of the bracket that was in pieces.

He added: “It was my view that this part of the bracket between the two metal brackets had effectively come apart, leaving it freestanding and leaning against the wall.”

DCI Pannell said CCTV showed Freddie entering the lingerie department with his mum and her friend.

The youngster then appeared to touch the mirror while looking at his reflection.

There was a “shimmer” before the item began “moving forwards”.

Freddie was then hit on the “top and back of his head” – causing him to fall unconscious.

DCI Pannell said Freddie “doesn’t really apply any force to the mirror which weighs a significant amount, then (the mirror) leans forward and hits him”.

He was rushed to hospital but tragically died two days later on August 2.

Freddie’s mum, Natasha Ingham described her son as “cheeky and funny and clever” in a moving tribute.

She told the inquest: “He was always smiling which was like a ray of sunshine.”

Freddie’s dad Andrew Farrow said it “feels like part of our world is missing” following his son’s death.

The inquest, estimated to last four to five days, continues.

WILLIE MULLINS went out of his way to meet his “junior fan club” at the Dublin Racing Festival.

The legendary Irish trainer had another successful weekend at Leopardstown, capped off by Galopin Des Champs winning another Irish Gold Cup.

Shauna Clinton/Sportsfile

His good mood was bolstered when he met a group of young fans that was christened his “junior fan club” by Horse Racing Ireland.

He posted for a photograph with them while also signing autographs.

All of the young boys wore dashing flat caps, with Mullins remarking to one that he “liked” his.

A video of the interaction was shared to social media, with one fan calling it: “Beautiful”

Nazeem said: “British Racing needs to take a leaf out of the Willie Mullins book of, Start them young!

“The Top NH trainer on the planet, clearly has sights firmly on the future of this great sport.

“A day to remember for those youngsters”

A third fan commented: “That’s class you can’t buy it” while a fourth commented: “The wee flat caps….l can’t”

And a fifth posted: “Respect to Willie Mullins. This is what Racing should be about”

The 68-year-old has given an update on Lossiemouth and her plans for Cheltenham Festival after her heartbreaking fall against State Man.

The two stablemates were contesting a right humdinger in the Irish Champion Hurdle before Rich Ricci’s mare came down on the back straight.

Her capsizing almost brought down State Man too, but Paul Townend swerved him out of trouble just in time and strolled to victory.

Lossiemouth’s jockey Danny Mullins was seen clutching his arm immediately after the devastating fall.

Fortunately he was deemed well enough to ride again in the next race while Lossiemouth was up on her feet and seemingly well too.

Mullins has insisted they have been training Lossiemouth for the Champion Hurdle for the past two years.

She breezed to victory in last year’s Mares’ Hurdle after winning the Triumph the previous year.

Armed with her 7lb mares’ allowance, she was expected to serve it up to odds-on fav Constitution Hill in their showdown next month.

And Mullins said that remains the plan, even though Nicky Henderson‘s stable star got the better of her in the Christmas Hurdle at Kempton.

He told Racing TV: “Unless she’s injured, nothing changes.

“Unless Rich thinks differently we’re happy to go for the Champion Hurdle.”
