On Saturday, Prince Harry kicked off his annual Invictus Games in Toronto, and after meeting him, one fan couldn’t help but gush over how he and his girlfriend, Meghan Markle, seemed like the perfect couple.
After meeting Harry, 33, at the Centre for Addiction and Mental Health in Toronto, royal fan Camilla Vasquez, who’s already met Markle, said, “they are wonderful together.”
“I met her when she was filming Suits near my school. She’s like him — very kind and genuine,” Vasquez, 20, added. “They are both caring and care humanitarian issues and social issues. Harry proved that by being here today.

Is there anything more perfect on a Sunday evening than sitting down for a good old quiz show? No, which is why we're very happy that Stephen Mulhern is back with a brand new series of Catchphrase this weekend! To celebrate, we caught up with Stephen for a natter about rubbish contestants, trying not to follow in the footsteps of previous host Nick Weir, and why we're about to see a worthy successor to the infamous snake charmer rudeness...
Were you glad to get back to Catchphrase for a second series?
"Yes, I must say I was really, really pleased. It doesn't feel like going to work. With Catchphrase, there is something about it where as soon as you go back into the studio it just feels right. We have a couple of specials in this series, like a Mother's Day special, which is hilarious. It has David Walliams and...

When Secret State hits our screens, watch out for the vicar: he's played by novelist and former MP Chris Mullin, who wrote the book it's based on, A Very British Coup. Here is his diary from his time in front of the camera
Thursday, 16 February, 2012
To Manchester where I am to have a walk-on part in a new TV version of my first novel, A Very British Coup, about the overthrow of a radical, very left-wing prime minister. Not that this new series bears much resemblance to my book. Even the title has been changed – to Secret State – and the credits say "inspired by" rather than "based on".
Director Ed Fraiman has kindly agreed that I might have a walk-on part, a la Alfred Hitchcock. I thought he might reincarnate me as a backbench MP or even a minister; instead I am to be the vicar conducting a memorial service...

Ex-mp George Galloway is flying to the Us hoping to meet Hollywood producers who will back him to make a documentary about Palestinians in Gaza. But he'd be wasting his talents
One of the only absolutes to emerge so far from this wreckage of an election is the fact that a handful of MPs are now out of a job. But while Lembit Öpik looks certain to go down the Neil and Christine Hamilton route of gurning through every demeaning reality TV show he's offered until his soul has completely eroded and Jacqui Smith will dedicate the rest of her life to never letting her husband out of her sight, George Galloway has his eyes set on something a little more lofty.

Christine Hamilton has argued that the I'm A Celebrity... format needs shaking up. Hamilton, who appeared on the ITV1 show's first series, said that the programme is in danger of "hitting the buffers" like Big Brother. "For a reality show, I think the jungle is pretty good.
