Britain's Queen Elizabeth came face-to-face with millions of pictures of herself yesterday (30.10.14).
The 88-year-old monarch and her husband Prince Philip beamed widely as they toured a stamp factory in Wolverhampton, seeing row after row of stamps adorned with her own likeness.
During their tour of International Security Printers at the city's i54 business park, the couple were shown the printing machines at work before viewing a display of archived stamps and unveiling a plaque marking their visit.
And Philip shared a joke with staff operating an Italian-made Cerutti industrial printer.
Printer Richard Houghton said: "We told them about the machine and where it was from.
"And the duke asked 'Have you learned to speak Italian, or have you taught it to speak English?' "
Later in the day, the queen formally opened a £500 million Jaguar Land Rover engine manufacturing centre at the business park.
The couple toured the site - which will start full production next year - and met with staff members and apprentices, and also looked at vehicles, engines and tools, as well as meeting youngsters involved in educational engineering design schemes.
Aston Business School Professor David Bailey said the engine manufacturing centre was "hugely important" to the company.
He said: "Previously they'd bought in engines from Ford, but by doing it themselves it gives them much greater strategic control over it.
"They can produce engines that they need for different models at different brands at different times, so really important for the company going forward."
Britain's Queen Elizabeth's garden will be explored in a new TV series.
The monarch granted gardener Alan Titchmarsh access to Buckingham Palace, and he spent a year exploring the 39-acre estate for 'The Queen's Garden', using aerial photography, time-lapse, thermal imaging and remotely-operated motion-sensitive cameras to capture the annual cycle from every angle.
He also shows the work of palace garden staff, including how they use "arisings", slang for fertiliser from the royal stables, while archive footage will show how the monarch and her sister, the late Princess Margaret played there as children.
ITV will air 'The Queen's Garden' during the festive season and promise a "magical" experience for viewers.
Richard Klein, who commissioned the series for ITV, said: "There is something magical about a garden hidden behind high walls, and no more so than here, at Buckingham Palace.
"Guided by Alan Titchmarsh and the four seasons, 'The Queens Garden' is a delightful and charming exploration of that magical world, with a light dusting of royal history."
The 65-year-old presenter has previously met the 88-year-old monarch on several occasions.
The queen memorably joked with him when she gave him his MBE in 2000, saying: "You've given a lot of ladies a lot of pleasure."
Sarah-Jane Crawford is trying to match-make contestants on 'The X Factor'.
The 29-year-old 'Xtra Factor' host said she's keen to find a date for contestant Stevi Ritchie - who was rumoured to be romancing Chloe Jasmine - and also revealed that other relationships are beginning to develop between the hopefuls.
She told the Metro newspaper: "Stevi has been in the press for being unlucky in love. He is so sweet and I would love to match-make him.
"When I first met him he told me he wanted to meet someone special. I will be asking him to give me an update on his love life on the 'Xtra Factor' this weekend."
Sarah-Jane also revealed she's keeping an eye out for on-set romances, saying: "I heard Jake Sims from Stereo Kicks and Betsy-Blue English from Only The Young were out together this week. That would be a great little romance!
"I have my hopes up and am going to be looking out for any flirting. I am the best matchmaker!"
And the raven-haired beauty's efforts to play cupid have already extended beyond the confines of the show.
She explained: "My boyfriend's best friend actually got dumped last month and then he told me he fancied Steph Nala.
"The minute she was knocked out of the competition I set them up and they are now going out on a date. I feel like Cilla Black at the moment."
Paul Hollywood tried to get Mary Berry arrested.
The 'Great British Bake Off' judge confessed he reported his co-star to the police after she vandalised his Aston Martin by scrawling her name on the car with a marker pen.
The 48-year-old TV personality approached law enforcement officers after the pair attended a book signing together In Birmingham.
He said during an interview on The Jonathan Ross Show, which airs tonight (31.10.14): "There was a police officer escorting me out towards my car and I was with security and they said, 'Your car is over there Mr Hollywood... have you noticed what's on your car?' I said, 'What do you mean?' They said, 'someone has written on your car... Mary has written on your car!'
"As I got closer to the car it just said 'Love Mary x' with a sharpie!
"I phoned her up because she was on her way home and I said, 'Mary what are you doing?' She said, 'Oh I thought it was just marvellous.' But the police officer was there and she said, 'Would you like Mary arrested?' and I said, 'Yes I do, I want Mary arrested, criminal damage!'"
Fortunately, Paul saw the funny side to the incident and after joking with the police officer about having Mary taken into custody, he decided to get his own back on the 79-year-old star.
He explained: "I did get her back though because we were at Bake Off a week later and I couldn't get [the pen] off and I said to her, 'Mary, that's still on my car'. I caught her, she went outside with a wet wipe... so I left her there for about half an hour!!"
The silver fox even joked he was pleased Mary had signed the car as it increased its value.
He added: "It was quite funny, it did double the price!"
Rochelle and Marvin Humes haven't had a row yet.
The couple - who tied the knot in 2012 - have swapped their musical careers for occasional presenting roles on 'This Morning' and claim to have been on top form since starting on the programme because they don't bring their work home with them.
The Saturdays singer Rochelle told the Daily Mirror newspaper: "We always say that no matter what happens we leave it there, in the studio.
"We haven't had a row yet. But there's a first for everything. I'm fully prepared for it - I'll just have to say what I think."
The 25-year-old star is confident that if she did squabble with former JLS star Marvin over an issue to do with the ITV show, she would come out on top because she always gets her own way.
She continued: "I always win - that's never my issue,
"I always have the last word. Happy wife, happy life!"
The stunning star added that the reason they are so good together on the programme is because presenting together feels natural due to their real-life bond.
She explained: "I didn't have to go in and get to know someone new and neither did Marvin,
"It's just us being us, like we are at home but in front of a few more people."
'Coronation Street' characters will be left fighting for their lives after a minibus crash.
Bosses of the ITV soap are currently working on a new storyline which will see some of Weatherfield's cobbled street's most loved characters involved in a devastating clash of vehicles early next year.
The staff of the Underworld underwear factory will be caught up in the horrific crash as they embark on a work outing in a Street Cars minibus driven by Steve McDonald (Simon Gregson).
The details of the crash are currently being kept under wraps but it has been revealed that more than one character will be taken to hospital as a result of the crash and at least one of their lives will be on the line.
The dramatic stunt is to be filmed before Christmas and suitable locations are currently being explored to ensure the scenes - which are set to air in the New Year - are as spectacular as possible.
Meanwhile, it's also been revealed that Tina O'Brien is to reprise her role as Sarah Louise Platt - daughter to Gail Platt (Helen Worth) and sister to Nick Tilsley (Ben Price) and David Platt (Jack P. Shepherd) - in early 2015.
In a statement, Tina said: "I am delighted to be returning. Sarah has a lot of history and unfinished business on the street and I'm looking forward to finding out what she's been up to and why she's returned home."
Britain's Princess Beatrice became a trader for the day yesterday (30.10.14).
The 26-year-old royal - the daughter of Prince Andrew and his ex-wife Sarah Ferguson - lent her support to the annual Bloomberg Tradebook Charity Day at the firm's London office to help raise money for her mother's charity Children in Crisis.
Beatrice was guided on the phones by staff members in fancy dress as she took calls and sealed deals with clients.
Bloomberg Tradebook later shared a selection of pictures of the princess and tweeted: "Big thank you to HRH Princess Beatrice for joining @BBGTradebook to support @ChildrenCrisis at #TBKCharityDay (sic)"
And she wasn't the only famous face to take part in the initiative, with presenter Krishnan Guru-Murthy, 'Holby City' actor Alex Macqueen, DJ Sara Cox and 'Game of Thrones' actress Sophie Turner also on the trading floor for the day.
Commissions made from the day's trades would be donated to the charities chosen by the stars.
Children in Crisis - which was founded by Sarah in 1993 and aims to educate young people in some of the world's poorest countries - were extremely thankful for the high-profile fundraising.
Koy Thomson, CEO of Children in Crisis, said: "We are incredibly grateful to Her Royal Highness and Alex Macqueen for helping support the charity in this time of need as we face the very real threat of disease and political instability in some of the countries in which we operate.
"By lending their voices, they are helping us raise funds to continue providing education to children who so desperately want to learn and better their communities."
Jennifer Lopez say she's spent much of her life beating herself up for not being good enough.
The 'Dance Again' hitmaker, who has six-year-old twins Max and Emme with her third ex-husband, Marc Anthony, puts a lot of pressure on herself to be perfect and only recently learned to embrace her imperfections.
In her new memoir, 'True Love,' the 45-year-old star writes: "It's the messy parts of life that make us human, so we should embrace them too - pat ourselves on the back for getting through them rather than being angry for having gotten into them.
"Part of loving yourself is about forgiving yourself - which is something I've always struggled with. Being ambitious, being a perfectionist, means I've spent my life beating myself up for not being good enough, or for screwing something up. It took a long time, but I finally figured out that I wouldn't have half the instincts or insights I've had as an artist over the years if not for those screw-ups."
Jennifer now feels at peace with herself and in the "best place" she's ever been.
She adds: "This road of healing and rediscovery has been a long one, and it was much more difficult than anything I've ever done. It's taken me to some real emotional lows. My life now might not be how I always envisioned it, but that doesn't mean it isn't great."
Julianne Hough broke down in tears while praising her older sister.
The 26-year-old singer/songwriter made an emotional speech in which she praised her older sister, Sharee Wise, admitting her sibling inspired her to get into dancing.
When asked by 'Guardians of the Galaxy' actress Zoe Saldana who she counts as a hero in AOL Originals web series 'My Hero', the 'Dancing with the Stars' judge looked to Sharee and said: "So anyway, when they came to me, I immediately thought of you."
The 'Rock of Ages' actress choked up as she delivered a message about the inspirational family member, praising her sibling for being the one "consistent" person in her life.
She gushed: "You have literally been the one person that I've looked up to who's been consistent in my life, and when I see who you are as a mother and as a sister and as a wife, you kind of inspired everything, basically, to be where I'm at today,"
The star concluded her teary tribute by saying: "You started with your dance and performing and you were kind of the first person to do everything. And we followed in your footsteps, so I owe a lot to you."
Tom Parker has vowed to look after Lindsay Lohan.
The former Wanted star is keeping a watchful eye over the 28-year-old actress as she performs in play 'Speed-the-Plow' in London because he wants to help the flame-haired beauty - who has struggled with alcohol addiction in the past - stay on the straight and narrow.
Tom, who grew close to the 'Mean Girls' star while she dated fellow The Wanted member Max George, reached out to Lindsay after he spotted a photo of her "staggering out of a club" following a night of partying.
He told The Sun newspaper: "I chatted to her a couple of days ago because I saw a photo of her in a newspaper staggering out of a nightclub.
"I wanted to check she was okay so I asked what she was doing. She told me she had simply fallen over and I was like, 'Really?' "
The 26-year-old singer admitted he worries about Lindsay - who was arrested twice for driving under the influence in 2007 - and is rooting for her to keep her life on track.
He said: "She's had a rough time but she's a sweet girl and a great actress. None of us want to see her go back to that dark place."
Kaley Cuoco-Sweeting knew her husband was 'The One' because he loves animals.
The 'Big Bang Theory' star, who married tennis player Ryan Sweeting in December after just six months of dating, admits she fell in love with him when he bonded with her pets, but joked the real love of her life is in fact her pet pooch Norman.
The 28-year-old actress said: "I couldn't have been with someone who didn't love dogs. He let ours sleep in the bed!
"Anyone that knows me, knows Norman and he is the love of my life. My husband knew that going in. He's number one, he's the apple of my eye ... I love that guy so much!"
The couple also have five horses but Kaley is the only one brave enough to ride them.
She added to Us Weekly magazine: "He wants to pet them. He doesn't want to ride them."
The actress also previously said she believes her dogs have prepared her for parenthood because they've made her more responsible.
She recently said: "I think if you can take care of a plant, then you can take care of a dog and then you can have a baby. It's all in the order.
"I can't wait actually to have kids surrounded by all the dogs at our house too and the horses, and raise them with animals and [show them] how to treat them correctly. It starts from the very beginning with puppies and with babies, and showing them how they need to be treated."
Jimmy Page found being in Led Zeppelin "inspirational".
The legendary rocker admits he and his bandmates - Robert Plant, John Paul Jones and the late John Bonham - experienced "bursts of energy" that allowed them to create their classic songs because they shared the same vision.
He said: "As a band, we had a collective consciousness.
"It was so inspirational and songs like Rock And Roll just appeared out of thin air.
"It was like a huge burst of energy. Wonderful!"
While Jimmy has admitted a much-called for Led Zeppelin reunion is highly unlikely to happen, he is hoping to get back on the road himself next year.
He told The Sun newspaper: "Sometime next year, I hope to be seen playing.
"Even if it's near the end of next year, it doesn't matter as long as I've got it right live. I've got new music."
And though he is busy working on Led Zeppelin reissues, he also wants to return to the recording studio and "surprise" people with a new album.
Asked if he'll release a new record, he said: "I'd like to think so. Really I just want to go out there and present a few surprises to people."
