Heighington, around six miles from Darlington and close to Newton Aycliffe, was named “perfect” during a BBC programme presented by architect Ptolemy Dean in 2006.

The programme looked at the characteristics that make up the ideal English village, with Heighington ultimately judged to be “perfect”.

Heighington Parish Council says the judges considered historical features including its defensible layout, steep approach roads and narrow entrances.

The home sits on the edge of Heighington, which has two pubs, a grocery store, a church, a village hall and well-regarded schools, and the village is also close to Darlington, Newton Aycliffe and major road links including the A1(M) and A68.

Heighington is centred on a traditional village green, overlooked by Grade I-listed St Michael’s Church, parts of which date from before the Norman Conquest.

The home offers nearly 4,000 square feet of accommodation at a guide price of £750,000.

A judge has warned the teenagers custody is the ‘likely outcome’ for them

Four teenagers have admitted starting a fire which gutted an historic manor house.

Emergency services were called to the Grade II*-listed Rheola House in the Neath Valley on the afternoon of August 18 to find the 10-bedroom property “well alight”.

Subsequent drone footage showed the damage done to the property.

Adjourning the case for pre-sentence reports a judge at Swansea Crown Court told the defendants custody was the “likely outcome” for them.

Kyle Renzoni, aged 18, of Bryn Catwg, Cadoxton, Neath; Ellis Harding, 19, of Rhos Road, Gendros, Swansea; Yian Foster, aged 18, of John Street, Resolven, Neath Valley; and 18-year-old Evan Traynor, of Brithwen Road, Waunarlwydd, Swansea, all pleaded guilty to arson being reckless as to whether life was endangered when the appeared in the dock via videolink for a plea and trial hearing.

The court heard that a 17-year-old boy from Dowlais in Merthyr, who cannot be named due to his age, is being dealt with separately at youth court.

Renzoi pleaded not guilty to an offence of possesison of a bladed article in a public place and the court heard the prosecution would not be seeking a trial in regard to that matter.

The defendants, who are currently being held on remand, were further remanded into custody.

Sentencing was adjourned to December 4 to allow pre-sentence reports to be prepared.

Judge Geraint Walters said: “The indication is cases like this cross the custody threshold – it’s fairly obvious.

“Whether there is any option short of that will have to be determined by the judge.

“But at the moment custody is the likely outcome”

Rheola House – built between 1812 and 1818 – was one of Wales’ most treasured properties and was designed by the famous architect John Nash, whose work includes designs for London’s Marble Arch, Regent Street and Regent’s Park, the redesign of Buckingham Palace, and the remodelling of Brighton’s Royal Pavilion.

The house was awarded the higher level star listing by Cadw as “an important early 19th-century country house in the picturesque tradition”.

The property is currently owned by The Brook Group which had plans to turn it into a hotel, spa, and leisure complex.

“I doubt he’d have tried it if a few of the lads were there!”

A video captured on a bike helmet camera shows a female motorcyclist being grabbed by an ‘inappropriate’ man in Manchester’s Northern Quarter as he climbed onto her bike.

Ellie, from Salford, was stationary at traffic lights on Oldham Street when a stranger ran into the road and, without her consent, jumped onto the back of her green Kawasaki ER-6F.

Startled by the man on her bike now grabbing her hips, the 32-year-old gave the intruder a ‘good whack,’ causing him to stumble away towards a group of men stood laughing.

She can the be heard saying to her friend ‘oh my god, I’m actually shaking’, as she was asked ‘are you alright?’.

“I was so focused on not dropping the bike I genuinely didn’t even process how inappropriate the whole thing was until afterwards,” the shocked primary school worker wrote after the incident.

“Gave him a good whack though, so at least the survival instincts kicked in.”

Charlotte, a friend of Ellie’s who accompanied her during the incident, managed to record the man’s shameless act.

The footage amassed 430k likes online, with Ellie’s caption reading: “Someone come get their grandad. He’s out here touching women and bikes.

“Jokes aside, a man jumping onto a woman’s bike without consent is f***ing weird. I doubt he’d have tried it if a few of the lads were there!”

Many comments slammed the man’s behaviour, one viewer saying “It’s vile what men will do to women just to impress other men.”

Another user commented: “Getting assaulted in broad daylight. Unfortunately not an uncommon experience for us women.”

“This is disgusting oh my god, where do these men get the audacity?” another added.

Kelsey Parker, who was married to Tom Parker of chart-topping boyband The Wanted, shared the news on Instagram with a photograph showing her newborn son’s arm alongside a sign bearing the name River.

Announcing the arrival, she wrote: “Welcome to the world, River. Our little bit of hope.”

The happy news comes after an incredibly difficult period for Kelsey and her partner Will, whose son Phoenix was stillborn at 39 weeks last year.

Speaking publicly about the tragedy earlier this year, Kelsey revealed she gave birth at home and immediately realised something was wrong.

She said: “You could just see that he was no longer with us.”

Kelsey later described the traumatic aftermath, including the arrival of police and being taken to hospital following the loss of her baby.

The podcaster and author announced her latest pregnancy in May, describing her baby as her “rainbow baby” after the heartbreak of losing Phoenix.

In an emotional social media post at the time, she wrote: “A year ago next month, we lost our beautiful baby boy, Phoenix.

“And somehow, through all the heartbreak, it feels like Tom and Phoenix have sent us another little gift from heaven, our little rainbow baby.”

The birth announcement was met with messages of support from a host of celebrities, including Rochelle Humes, Susanna Reid and Holly Hagan-Blyth.

Kelsey shares two children, Aurelia and Bodhi, with Tom Parker, who grew up in Bolton and found fame with The Wanted.

Tom died in March 2022 aged 33 after being diagnosed with an inoperable brain tumour.

His death prompted an outpouring of grief from fans across the UK and particularly in his hometown of Bolton, where he remained a much-loved local figure.

The arrival of baby River marks a joyful new chapter for Kelsey and her family following years marked by both profound loss and resilience.

A copy of Harper Lee’s seminal 1960 work was discovered in a box of American books given to Oxfam’s bookshop in Portobello Road, west London.

It has been acquired by the British Library and will join the institution’s national collection.

Shop manager Olivia Haysman-Walker, who established the novel was a first US edition, said: “It could so easily have been missed.

“There were lots of books to work through in the donation, but we recognised To Kill A Mockingbird and thought it was worth taking a closer look.

“We realised quite quickly that we had something really special.

“The dust jacket showed its age, and although it was worn around the edges, the pages inside were in beautiful condition.

“It’s amazing to think that this book has passed through our Oxfam bookshop and into the national collection at the British Library.

“It really has been quite a journey, and it’s a lovely reminder, during Second Hand September, of the kind of treasures that can be hiding among the shelves and donations in our shops.”

Second Hand September is Oxfam’s annual campaign encouraging people to buy second-hand.

Lee’s Pulitzer Prize-winning book tells the story of lawyer Atticus Finch as he defends Tom Robinson, a black man wrongly accused of a raping a white woman.

Her story of racial injustice and childhood innocence, set in Alabama in 1934, has sold more than 40 million copies around the world and has been translated into 40 languages.

The US novelist, who was awarded the Presidential Medal of Freedom, died in 2016 at the age of 89.

A former Fox News producer has died by suicide at her Florida home, six years after suing one of the network’s former anchors and accusing him of rape.

Jennifer Eckhart, 36, was found at her home in Hobe Sound on Saturday, a Martin Country Sheriff’s office spokesperson confirmed to the Daily Mail on Monday. 

Law enforcement sources told TMZ the producter-turned-podcaster took her own life.

An incident report obtained by the outet reportedly revealed Eckhart’s own mother found her body. She arrived at the home Monday morning to find her daughter in the bathtub of her master bedroom with a knife nearby, sources told the outlet.

Eckhart was reportedly pronounced dead at 11:57am, after officers arrived.

The Daily Mail has approached the Martin Country Sheriff’s office for information about the case.

Eckhart accused former Fox anchor Ed Henry of raping her back in 2020. An outside probe launched by the network led to the latter’s firing that year.

Eckhart accused Henry of restraining and raping her in a Manhattan hotel in 2017. The suit was settled after five years in June 2025, just a day before it was slated to go to court.

 Eckhart previously accused then-Fox anchor Ed Henry of raping her in a 2020 lawsuit. The suit was settled last year

Henry currently works for Newsmax as the network’s head anchor and has long denied the allegations. He was married but separated from then-spouse Shirley Hung at the time of the allegations. The pair divorced in 2024. Henry went on to date Rod Stewart’s ex-wife, Alana Stewart. 

Eckhart, meanwhile, launched a podcast in 2021. She framed the move as her ‘second act’ during an August 2021 interview with Variety that described the podcast’s premise.

Called REINVENTED with Jen Eckhart, the last recorded episode was uploaded in March, weeks after a federal appeals court struck down a follow-up filing from Eckhart that targeted Fox News rather than Henry.

It echoed a tossed portion of the original lawsuit that alleged the network knew about Henry’s behavior and failed to properly discipline him and protect her.  

A trio of 2nd Circuit judges, however, ruled against Eckhart, saying the former producer did not do enough to prove ‘Fox knew of Henry’s conduct towards her.’ 

Eckhart was also not able to prove that execs only took the ‘appropriate corrective action’ against Henry after her suit was filed in June 2020, to get ahead of the claims.

The appeal unsuccessfully sought to hold the network accountable for violating a New York City civil rights law that bars employees from being harassed, discriminated against, and retaliated upon by their employers.

The circumstances surrounding the earlier settlement, meanwhile, remain unknown.

Eckhart had been operating a podcast in the years since she left Fox, though the most recent episode came in March

Henry currently works for Newsmax as the network’s head anchor. He is seen here with then-wife Shirley Hung in 2014. The pair split in 2016 before divorcing in 2024

Eckhart accused Henry of preforming ‘sadistic acts on her without her consent that left her injured, bruised and battered with bloody wrists’ in the original suit. 

She also attached screenshots of texts from the then-America’s Newsroom anchor, where he called her ‘my little whore’ and demanded ‘more anal’ sex, according to the complaint.

The suit also accused Henry of sex trafficking, sexual harassment, gender discrimination and subjecting her to a hostile work environment. Henry was fired the day after it was filed, despite it never getting to court. 

As the suit made its way through the the federal court system for five year, Eckhart worked on her podcast. She expressed hope to Variety that the median would allow her more freedom than her cable news career.

‘I did not have an immediate desire to run back into the arms of corporate media… I’m not beholden to any investor or network,’ sge said.

‘Reinventing yourself, whether personally or professionally, is something so many of us can relate to.’

‘My hope is that this show will inspire anyone who wants to reinvent themselves to take that first step… to let every person out there know it is never too late to reinvent your life,’ she told the Hollywood trade paper.

Eckhart was born and raised in Miami, and previously worked as an ESPN Radio correspondent and anchor for WUFT-TV, a local PBS affiliate in Gainesville.

A trio of yobs who damaged a protected beauty spot with their 4x4s have been caught out by their own TikTok videos.

John Robinson, Michael Williams and Joseph Hodgson were part of a convoy that drove the vehicles from Liverpool before leaving deep tyre tracks through rare peat and blanket bog.

They churned up large sections of privately-owned land in Wales after travelling more than 3km onto the Berwyn Site of Special Scientific Interest (SSSI).

But the nuisance drivers were easily identified by Natural Resources Wales investigators after they brazenly shared footage of themselves causing the ‘irreversible damage’ on TikTok.

One clip, filmed through the windscreen of a vehicle, shows it bouncing along muddy tracks in pouring rain, while other 4x4s snake their way across the rugged countryside.

Another shows one vehicle sunk deep in mud as members of the group try to tow it free, while several more are seen parked up across the beauty spot.

Hodgson, 23, from Liverpool, has now been banned from entering the entire Berwyn SSSI, which covers more than 254 sq km, for three years.

He was also ordered by Wrexham Magistrates’ Court to pay more than £2,000 after being convicted of criminal damage.

Seven vehicles had travelled in convoy from Liverpool to Denbighshire on June 1 last year before heading into countryside where vehicles are not permitted.

They then drove across privately owned land towards the Moel Fferna peak and onto the protected site.

Their off-road vehicles left tyre marks, causing ‘irreversible’ damage to the sensitive environment. 

Natural Resources Wales said Hodgson did not co-operate with the investigation or attend an interview and claimed he had sold his vehicle.

But officers later identified him as one of the people featured in footage posted online.

Hodgson failed to attend an earlier court hearing in August but was found guilty of criminal damage in his absence on the basis of joint enterprise.

He was ordered to pay £1,000 compensation for damaging the SSSI, £1,000 in costs, £50 for criminal damage and a further £30 compensation.

He was also handed the three-year community behaviour order because the offences were committed while he was already under a community order for similar countryside offences.

Robinson and Williams, both from Liverpool, were convicted at a hearing in August.

Both were fined and disqualified from driving for two months.

Kirsty Roberts, from Natural Resources Wales, said: ‘Sites of Special Scientific Interest are designated and protected because they support the UK’s most important rare and fragile wildlife.

‘Blanket bog is particularly sensitive. Once it is cut up by deep ruts, the water balance can be altered for years, degrading habitat and reducing carbon storage.

The off-road vehicles left tyre marks, causing ‘irreversible’ damage to the sensitive environment

The incident is the latest in a string of young people who have been caught ‘baiting’ police officers by posting videos of their crimes on social media platforms

‘Illegal off-roading also impacts farmers and landowners who manage these privately owned working landscapes, disrupting farming operations, increasing costs, and undermining long-term conservation efforts.’

The incident is the latest in a string of young people who have been caught ‘baiting’ police officers by posting videos of their crimes on social media platforms.

Arrogant drivers joyriding in stolen cars or inhaling laughing gas behind the wheel are becoming increasingly popular on social media platforms such as TikTok.

Most clips follow a similar theme where the camera zooms in on a speedometer climbing rapidly before the lens pans to the driver and their laughing passengers.

Andy Burnham previously addressed the issue, telling reporters that sharing footage glorifying dangerous driving was ‘truly reprehensible’.

He said: ‘We’ve communicated to those social media platforms that have been hosting content that celebrates this type of dangerous behaviour on our roads and urged them to take it down.’

The Government has urged social media platforms including TikTok to remove videos glorifying dangerous driving after two tragedies in the space of a few days left 12 people dead 

A Downing Street spokesman said Ofcom has the Government’s ‘full backing to take tough action’ against platforms which fail in their legal duties.

Paul Williams, acting deputy national chairman for the Police Federation of England and Wales, told BBC Breakfast: ‘Every day we can identify now numerous examples of young people sensationalising dangerous driving.

‘Not just dangerous driving, but baiting police officers who are out there to protect the public. It’s a real problem. It’s causing officers concern.

‘They shouldn’t have to be going out and worrying about whether they’re going to return home from their shift or not. But on top of that, wondering if they’re going to be plastered all over social media.

‘It’s absolutely unacceptable and social media platforms need to take some action.’

Demands for action have intensified after two police officers died alongside five ‘TikTok joyriders’ in a catastrophic head-on collision on the A66 in Teesside last month.

PC Matthew Blades, 37, and PC Tom Clough, 38, were in a marked response vehicle that was struck by a VW Passat carrying Michael Robert Cahill, 23; Jacob Matusiak, 23; Makai Saddington, 18; Theo Rae, 17; and Cole Robert Worthy, 17.

Another police car had been pursuing them before calling off the chase. Just ten seconds later, the VW struck Mr Blades and Mr Clough, who had not been involved in the pursuit.

In the months leading up to the crash, Saddington had posted a string of TikTok clips that appeared to show him taking part in police chases. He had also been awaiting trial for racially abusing and assaulting officers.

The show coincides with Burberry celebrating its 170th anniversary and the collection has been designed by Burberry Chief Creative Officer Daniel Lee.

London Fashion Week is currently underway in the capital, running from Thursday, September 17 to Monday, September 21.

Organised by the British Fashion Council, this season’s event focuses on the spring/summer 2027 collections.

The Burberry show coincides with the opening of a new free exhibition at the V&A museum called The Burberry Trench: Crafting an Icon to mark the brand’s 170th year.

It will display a series of the iconic coats from over the years as well as a vintage womenswear catalogue and the personalised label inside fashion designer Hardy Amies’s own Burberry coat.

The V&A website reads: ‘This free display offers a concise history of the Burberry trench coat from its origins as practical outerwear and military attire to a world-renowned icon of fashion, rooted in a contemporary British sensibility and celebrated globally.’ 

The exhibition will run until January 3 2027.

Another highlight from the week included M&S making its London Fashion Week debut with a star-studded show attracting the likes of Joan Collins and Katherine Jenkins. 

Last Friday the iconic brand marked 100 years since it first launched its clothing collection, with a string of stars gracing the front row at the Design Museum for its first ever runway show.

Leading the pack was legendary actress Joan, 93, who showed off her age-defying appearance in a chic black pencil skirt while sat in the front row.

The Dynasty icon posed in a stylish white satin blouse while she chatted to Welsh singer Katherine at the event.

Taking a break from her Parliamentary duties, Conservative leader Kemi Badenoch was also in attendance in a stylish dark blue suit.

Kemi has previously offered her backing to help save the British High Street, stating Conservatives would reduce the welfare bill to free up money to ‘properly support local businesses’.

In a recent Facebook post, she said: ‘By cutting the welfare bill back to pre-covid levels, my team will free up the money to properly support local businesses.

‘That means scrapping business rates for pubs, restaurants and high street shops around the country, giving a lifeline to the people who create local jobs and support local communities.’

No doubt enjoying a chance to mix with the showbiz world, Kemi chatted to legendary actress Joan before posing for a snap with her. 

Also in the audience were sports personalities Jamie Redknapp – accompanied by his wife Frida – and Ian Wright, as well as model David Gandy and Capital Breakfast radio hosts Sian Welby and Jordan North.

On the runway itself, Liam Gallagher‘s son Lennon showcased Marks’ men’s collection and his proud cousin Anais watched on from the front row. 

It was announced today that Presley Gerber, the son of Cindy Crawford, has died, aged 27.

The former model died on Sunday, September 20, at a rehabilitation facility in Los Angeles, according to records from the Los Angeles County Medical Examiner.

A representative for Crawford and her husband, Rande Gerber, confirmed the news, asking for privacy on behalf of the family.

Several stars have paid tribute to Presley, including his close friends Brooklyn Beckham and Paris Hilton.

Presley’s cause of death has not yet been disclosed, with an autopsy still pending.

Over the years, Cindy has regularly opened up about her family life, sharing just months ago how ‘proud’ she was of her children and the bond they share.

Who is Cindy Crawford married to?

Crawford first got married in 1991 to actor Richard Gere after meeting at a star-studded barbecue hosted by the late photographer Herb Ritts.

They divorced in 1995, and she met businessman and former model Rande Gerber at her agent’s wedding, themselves tying the knot three years later.

Speaking to People Magazine in 2023, Crawford said that her and Gerber maintain ‘more traditional’ roles in the home, giving an insight into their family life.

‘I was going to joke and say I can barely get him to pick up a wet towel, which is partly true, but I will say, if something around the house needs repair – he’ll repair it if he knows how.

‘You know, if the air conditioning’s not working, he deals with that. Or if there’s a patch of grass that needs replacing.

‘So I would say we’re pretty good at divvying up the responsibilities of life.’

She continued: ‘And I’m definitely more in charge of making sure there are groceries in the house and menu planning, the schedule, making appointments and that kind of stuff.’

They welcomed their first child, Presley, in 1999, and his sister, Kaia, in 2001.

Who are Cindy Crawford’s children, Presley and Kaia Gerber?

Both Presley and Kaia followed in their parents’ footsteps and got into modelling, with Presley beginning his career at the age of 15.

He made his runway debut for Moschino in Los Angeles in 2016 and went on to work with major brands including Calvin Klein, Dolce & Gabbana and Celine.

Ahead of his death, Presley had opened up about his struggles with substance abuse and mental health issues.

He told the Studio 22 podcast in 2023: ‘Having struggled with mental health, depression and some other things that come along with that, I think that whether I help one person or a hundred people get out of that place that I was in at one point in my life, that’s all I need to do.

‘[Mental health] is an issue. It is such a big part of my life. It’s a 24/7 job, and there’s so much to it. That’s really what I want to do: help people, whether you’re depressed, you’re struggling with something that is having a negative effect on your body. I mean it could be anything, and there’s no judgment.’

He added: ‘I’ve seen a lot of stuff and I’ve learned a lot of things. What I hope I can do is have made the mistakes for some other people, so they don’t have to make the same mistakes that I made.’

Kaia, meanwhile, began modelling when she was just 10 years old after she posed for Versace’s Young Versace division.

Since then, she’s worked with Omega, YSL Beauty, and Marc Jacobs Fragrances.

As an actress, she has appeared in supporting roles in the films Bottoms and Saturday Night, as well as a lead role in the TV show The Shards.

Months before Presley’s death, Cindy said she was ‘so proud’ that her children ‘love each other.’

She opened up about her children working on a photoshoot together in an interview with People, saying: ‘It was like watching their interaction with each other. Nothing makes, I think, a parent prouder than when your kids like each other and love each other.

‘And then I think they interviewed me and Presley together and Kaia and Rande together, just hearing what… It’s not often that you have that recorded and hear that, hearing what your kids have to say about you; if it’s good is so nice.’ 

She also opened up about being an empty nester after both of her children left home, saying: ‘I think we’re enjoying this next chapter of our life where it can be about us as a couple again.

‘I mean, of course, we’ll always be parents, our kids are always a priority. They just don’t need us as much as they did, so we can enjoy each other more.’
