Pre-Covid, the movie landscape was dramatically different: YouTubers weren’t dominating the box office, video game spin-offs rarely made an impact and Winnie-the-Pooh wasn’t yet the star of a slasher movie. Why such a flurry of innovation – and what will be next? Cinema has always been a medium of research and development. At any given point, the industry is searching for yet another breakthrough that can drive it into the future. Synchronised sound in the 1920s. Technicolor in the 1930s. The in

Experts weigh in on wellness culture’s obsession with natural fibers and the growing trend of people shunning plastic-based clothing A few months ago, Lane Koch made a decision: she would purge her family’s closets of all plastic-based fabrics and replace them with natural fibers, such as cotton and linen.

The troubled Games looked doomed until Glasgow stepped in but this opening ceremony had plenty of feelgood factor The Commonwealth Games in Glasgow opened on Thursday evening to the surreal sight of King Charles and Queen Camilla stepping out of a Tardis – and a mechanical Loch Ness monster roaring the first few bars of Flower of Scotland.

The powerful politician was no stranger to controversy, but brazenly defying a ban on surrogacy that he had long defended, was the last straw Up until last week, Jens Spahn was, by all accounts, a model of political success in Germany.

He was a leading official in the finance ministry, led the ministry of health through Covid and, in 2025, became his party

Writing from year after gross indecency arrest challenges ‘isolated mathematician’ image, says Cambridge academic When people think of Alan Turing, they might imagine he was arrogant, isolated, humourless, tortured.

The Cambridge University English literature professor Sarah Dillon has transcribed and studied a little-known short story

If Andy Burnham is minded to grasp the nettle, he will need to sell it to people like me. The right will call it a ‘death tax’ – why not a levy for ageing well?
