k but if u haven’t seen the guy ritchie sherlock films u don’t get it but they fully wrote holmes as in love w watson. like undeniably in love. In the first ten mins holmes refuses to take a Single case for three months bc watson won’t go with him. he locks himself in his room for two straight weeks, drugs the dog, and shoots the wall for attention bc watson is moving out. he says the world outside his room has nothing to offer until watson asks him to go to dinner & immediately agrees. he humiliates mary bc he’s jealous she can marry watson and he can’t. he goes to a fight club to Feel Something bc he knows john is slipping away from him. there’s never any “oh well just bros being bros” the whole tone towards it is just “ofc he’s in love w watson that’s one of his defining character traits”

There was hardly a dry eye in the house at Thursday's judging for the 2025 Daily Mirror ’s Pride of Britain Awards, in partnership with P&O Cruises, as a star-studded panel gathered to shine a light on the extraordinary feats of ordinary people.

Joining veteran hosts Carol Vorderman and Ashley Banjo were acting legend Michael Sheen, ex-Strictly professional Oti Mabuse, rapper Aitch and Coleen Rooney.

They were joined by Pride of Britain red carpet stalwarts Pete Wicks and GK Barry, Good Morning Britain star Kate Garraway, and Lioness champion Lucy Bronze.

“It’s going to be fun,” said Ashley ahead of the judging. “I’ve read up on all the shortlisted nominees but now I’m ready to hear what the other judges think. I really can’t pick.

"Me and Carol, we see people from this stage, we meet them, we give them their awards, and we usually see them afterwards, so we’re with them for their whole journey. And every one of them deserves to win.”

Newly recruited judge Coleen, who lost her beloved sister Rosie McCloughlin to a lifelong battle with Rett syndrome at the age of 14, said she was taken aback by how tough it was to pick just one inspirational winner from each category.

“It’s a privilege to be asked to be on the judging panel, and to hear so many amazing stories of inspirational people from all walks of life,” she said. “But I didn’t realise it would be this hard! Every one of the nominees deserves an award but just picking one or two from each category has been tough.

“But it’s been great hearing views from all round the table why they think certain people should be recognised.”

Coleen, who shares four sons with footballer husband Wayne Rooney, said she feels lucky to be involved in the Pride of Britain Awards.

“It’s a great event and it’s just fantastic to recognise the great work and courage and bravery that is around us,” she added.

And England star Lucy, fresh from the Lionesses' extraordinary Euros victory, told the Mirror: "It was amazing to hear the stories, the depth of the bravery we’ve heard about, and just to have a small part to play in the event, it’s such an honour. All the nominees merit acknowledgment.”

“All of the entrants tugged at my heartstrings,” said Carol, who is co-hosting this year’s awards ceremony for her 26th time. “But the children in particular are just incredible.”

Podcast host GK Barry said: “It’s my second year on the judge’s panel so I feel I’m getting more into it now. There were so many amazing people last year, it’s so difficult when it comes to picking someone. They’re all doing mental things, but I’m excited for this year’s batch of winners.”

Michael Sheen, who had to run for his curtain call in the West End, joked that there should be a special show dedicated just to all the nominees for the Lifetime Achievement award. “Every one of these people’s stories are amazing,” he added.

Hundreds of thousands of nominations had flooded in this year after Pete Wicks, GK Barry and Sam Thompson were sent on a mission to comb every inch of the UK to find the nation's unsung heroes.

The winners will be announced at this year's Pride of Britain Awards in a glittering ceremony televised on ITV later this autumn.

This feels like very Autistic behavior to me. The kinds of things she gets upset about are the same kinds of things I get upset about and I have identified these things as Autistic in myself. I just don't have the energy to pursue them like she does. I absolutely would if I could.

There is something here about taking people literally, about things being done THE RIGHT WAY, about things MAKING SENSE, about people doing what they say they will do. All of this. I feel this so much. She thinks the way I do. There are other people in the world like me.

have you lot heard about the tiktoker who’s taking on the actual government over a parking ticket? because she’s a hero

Okay so bad news for everyone on YouTube right now

Starting the 13th, we will have an AI determine if we are children or not and if you are a child, than you are forced to send your ID, send a selfie or a credit card

This has the obvious cons of having your privacy being revoked from you and and in case there is a security breach, major identity thefts.

So what do we do in this scenario?

Well right now I have real idea as this is relativity new to me, but I do have two plans

Plan 1. Bug the shit out of them, send letters and send emails about how much of bad idea this is.

Include why the AI will mess up and target adults who watch cartoons, include privacy issues, censorship issues, anything you can think of that relates to this. I want you guys to bug the hell out of YouTube until they reverse this idea

Plan 2. Blackout.

Since the thing is coming out on the 13th.

The plan will be to completely avoid YouTube at all cost for that day, no watching, no sharing, no uploading, no nothing.

Download videos before things go down, watch Netflix. Whatever you do, don’t touch YouTube.

That’s all I can say right now, I also want you guys to let YouTubers know of this situation cause if it’s important for everyone on the website to talk about this immediately

Spread this stuff around, let people know of YouTube’s upcoming policy and how it’ll hurt everyone

I don't know anything about Rhianna but this would seem to mean that she gave her son the family name Pratchett? I don't know if she is married but if she is kudos to her for keeping the family name and to giving it to her son.

New Pratchett in the world! ❤❤❤

Snogging Madame de Pompadour DWs02ep04

David: "The Doctor and sexuality is a very murky area... -- Obviously he is loving it and obviously he is attracted to her and finds her extraordinary, but I-"

Nice to see David so shy and flustered as Sophia is there with him doing the commentary. Not sure how fast they began to date after meeting while filming the Girl in the Fireplace.

This The Girl in the Fireplace commentary was released on the DVD boxset. Thanks to Doctor Who Don for putting these up on YouTube. You can listen the full commentary on their site.

All the other commentaries are listed here. Some are audio only like this one.
