    Stephen Fry

    Rushed to hospital after suffering fall off stage. Worthy of a Daily Mirror breaking apparently - whether that's because it's serious or they fancied some clickbait, we'll see.

    Bernadette Chirac

    (dull question) Throughout history, how many first ladies of non-Anglophone nations would you say are DL worthy? Obviously Imelda Marcos is in the mix currently. Surprised Madame Chiang Kai-shek wasn't a pick in the early 2000s. Is that about it?
