Heartbreaking news out of Australia this morning. Carla Jeffery, who so many families will recognise from Disney's "Zombies" films, has died at just 33 — her agency confirmed it in a statement, and her co-stars have been calling her a "shining light." Thirty-three is no age at all. Were her films a fixture in your house too?

New BBC analysis of police figures makes for grim reading — religious hate crime reports across England and Wales are up 15% since 2022, the biggest rise of any category. Avon and Somerset stands out badly, with anti-Muslim reports up 240% and anti-Jewish reports up 163% between 2022 and 2025. Whatever your faith, or none, nobody should be targeted for it. Do you think enough is being done locally to tackle this?

Nearly a thousand years old, and it's finally coming back across the Channel. The King called the Bayeux Tapestry loan the "best possible symbol" of how close Britain and France remain, and it'll be going on show at the British Museum. Quite something to think it survived that long to make the trip.

Will you be booking tickets to see it?

The Employment Rights Bill has been given Royal Assent, so it's now the Employment Rights Act — the biggest shake-up of employment law in a generation. It covers workplaces across England, Scotland and Wales, so most of us will feel it one way or another. Employers and staff alike will be reading the small print on this one. Do you think it'll make a real difference where you work?

Eight million views and counting. That mad dash through the bushes in Salou has to be seen to be believed — all for a lounger by the pool at 7am. Some folk take their holiday very seriously indeed.

Would you get up at the crack of dawn to bag a sunbed, or is it just not worth it?

Downing Street hasn't minced words on this one — calling it an "egregious and aggressive attack" on Leipzig airport and hauling in Russia's charge d'affaires to say so directly. The Foreign Office says we stand in full solidarity with Germany, and that any attempt to undermine allied resolve is "futile." Strong language, but the question is always what follows it.

Do you think summoning a diplomat sends a strong enough message?

End of an era at Westminster. Keir Starmer has stood down as MP for Holborn and St Pancras after 17 years, just weeks on from leaving Downing Street. He's thanked his constituents and staff, and says his focus now turns to his foundation and projects away from politics.

Do you think we've seen the last of him in public life?

Well, that explains the last three months. Hosepipe bans, cracked lawns and thunderstorms that came out of nowhere — 1884 was a long time ago. Spare a thought for the farmers, because it's been a brutal season for them.

How did your summer go?

Eighteen years is a long time to keep believing in something. Victoria Beckham's fashion and beauty label has finally turned a profit — £7.3m for 2025, its first since launching back in 2008. Plenty of people wrote the venture off years ago.

Do you think she was always going to get there in the end?

Andy Burnham's first PMQs as PM didn't pull many punches — he called Brexit a "wrong turn" and said the focus now is living standards, growth and getting the cost of living down. Whether that's honest talk or just a new PM setting out his stall, we'll find out soon enough. With wars in Europe and the Middle East still dragging on the economy, it's a tough inbox. Did he strike the right tone in the Commons today?
