Loose Women viewers were left angered by a tense debate about the Nicola Bulley investigation.
On Thursday’s edition of the ITV show (16 February), the panellists discussed the police’s search for the missing mother, and whether they were right to share details about “significant issues” Ms Bulley had in her personal life.
Kéllé Bryan supported people’s questioning of the police’s handling of the case, stating: “I guess my personal issue is the trust for the police. I think people have every right to ask them questions.”
She said that she doesn’t encourage “keyboard warriors” to wade in, but “those who have an informed place, who have done their reading and done their research from what is available”.
However, Jane Moore had an issue with her co-star’s point, and, interrupting her, replied: “But from what’s available, that is not necessarily that is all that is available.

BBC One’s latest crime drama, The Gold, tells a story so far-fetched it’s hard to believe it could have really happened.
But the story of how six men accidentally stole more than £27m worth of gold bullion is, in fact, completely true.
The six-part series focuses on the Brink’s-Mat robbery of 1983, and its far-reaching consequences.
You can read about the remarkable true story that inspired the series here.
But which parts of the series are rooted in truth, and which ones are fabricated for the purposes of its story?
Here’s a quick guide to sorting fact from fiction…
The robbery itself is recreated accurately to all historical accounts. The robbers did in fact pour gasoline on the security staff at the Brink’s-Mat depot, and threatened to set them alight if they didn’t provide them access to the vault.

Warning: contains spoilers for The Gold episodes 1 – 6.
In the final moments of BBC drama The Gold, the special taskforce investigators come to a ground-shaking realisation: all this time, they’ve only been chasing half of the swag, £13 million of the £26 million’s worth of bullion stolen in the infamous 1983 Brink’s-Mat bullion robbery. By 1986 they’d put away a handful of villains who committed or profited from the heist, but that was far from the extent of it. “Where do we start?” asks Di Brightwell. “At the beginning,” answers Dci Boyce.
It remains to be seen if The Gold will return to BBC One to tell the rest of the Brink’s-Mat story, but if does, there’s plenty of material. The investigation has continued decades after the event, as the cash was followed into international drug imports, original convictions were spent, and several suspects were killed in gangland executions years later.

Do decent people become real bastards when they acquire wealth?” For Hugh Quarshie, that’s the central question in the soapy new drama, Riches, in which he plays the CEO of a family-run Black haircare company. For reasons that quickly become clear, Quarshie doesn’t end up having much screen time – but his impact is felt throughout the entire show. Over six episodes, the debut season follows the Richards family as they figure out how to save their business from financial ruin.
Taking the role in Riches was not a difficult decision for Quarshie. Since his first professional credit in 1979, the 68-year-old’s career has ranged widely, from medical procedural Holby City to the title role in Othello for the RSC. Earlier this year, he was Bafta-nominated for best actor in Stephen, a miniseries about the aftermath of Stephen Lawrence’s murder. When he first spoke to Riches showrunner Abby Ajayi,...

When the term Wag (standing for the Wives And Girlfriends of England’s top footballers) first appeared in British newspapers, it beckoned in a new era of scurrilous journalism. These women – who were unfairly blamed for England’s miserable exit from the World Cup in 2006 – became a perpetual motion machine for tabloid column inches. But when The Book of the Wag is finally written, the story that began with Victoria Beckham and Cheryl Cole will climax with the wives of two former England strikers going head-to-head in the High Court. This is the story of Vardy v Rooney: A Courtroom Drama, Channel 4’s verbatim retelling of the infamous “Wagatha Christie” saga.
But that name was always a misnomer. This story was never a whodunnit. Instead, it was a she said, she said popularity contest played out on a public stage. In the red corner: Coleen Rooney (Trollied’s Chanel Cresswell...

One of the most curious things about “Harry & Meghan,” the new Netflix documentary about the Duke and Duchess of Sussex who stepped away from the British Monarchy, is how ordinary the couple appears. Harry chases after the kids in a stroller, Meghan feeds the chickens in the backyard of their Santa Barbara home. She calls him “H,” and he teases her about being late for their second date. The first three episodes that premiered Thursday appear to peel back the privacy of their lives for an honest glimpse into their world. But in reality, the series’ first three episodes feel like a close-up on previously seen footage.
In January 2020, three months before the worldwide Covid lockdown, Prince Harry Windsor and Meghan Moutbatten-Windsor (née Markle) divested themselves from the British monarchy. By September, while most of us were locked in our homes exploring Tiktok, the couple quietly signed consecutive multi-million dollar...

Three hours into Netflix doc series Harry & Meghan and still no tell-all truths from the darkest corners of the House of Windsor. Anyone who had expected the curtain to be lifted on the deep-state machinations of The Firm to protect the brand will be feeling short-changed by Volume I which dropped today. The reported estrangement between Prince Harry and Prince William remains a closed book. Whatever the Queen said to Harry when he resigned from royal duties, it is still – like almost everything the Queen has ever said about anything – swathed in a decorous silence.
There are, as promised on the program’s title page, a wealth of images from the vaunted “never before seen personal archive,” but they’re mostly holiday snaps. Very happy snaps, certainly; very sweetly romantic and often goofy memories that include an Instagram pic of Meghan dressed up as a dog, but nothing that would...

Prince Charles has guest-edited the 40th anniversary edition of British Black newspaper The Voice.
The prince said he was “so touched” to be asked, remarking that the newspaper – the only one in the UK to focus on Black issues and culture – had become “an institution.”
In his edition, which goes on sale next week, Prince Charles has marked some of the black community’s big achievements over the last 40 years, since The Voice debuted in 1982.
The issue will include:
An interview with Idris Elba, who has always credited receiving a grant from the Prince’s Trust when he was a teenager with opening the door to his long career An interview with Bernardine Evaristo, author of ‘Girl, Woman, Other’ and the first black woman to win the coveted Booker Prize An interview with Baroness Lawrence, mother of murdered teenager Stephen Lawrence, who has campaigned for years to improve social and...
