THE BBC finally made the broadcast change many fans were crying out for.

But others branded the big shake-up as “super weird” and “horrendous”.

Wimbledon updated their TV scoreboard for 2025[/caption]

The score within previous sets is now available[/caption]

And one even suggested the new style “stinks”.

The other three Grand Slams show the score of previous sets on the TV scoreboard in the corner of the screen.

However, Wimbledon’s scoreboard simply gave viewers the score in sets – rather than the score of the sets.

For example, the scoreboard going into a deciding fifth set would previously have stated 2-2 in the sets column.

Now, though, Wimbledon have decided to follow the standard set by the Australian Open, French Open and US Open by giving the scorelines of the earlier sets.

For example, deep in the fourth set of Cam Norrie’s clash with Roberto Bautista Agut, fans could see Norrie led 6-3 3-6 6-4 in sets, it was 5-5 in games and the Spaniard was up 0-15 in the 11th game.

Where applicable, the players’ seedings were also stated by their name.

The change was made by Wimbledon – hence the purple and green colours.

However, it was also implemented by the BBC as the host broadcaster of the Championships.

And there was a mixed reaction from tennis fans on social media.

One said: “Sacred grass, classy whites. Tennis’ purest theatre. It’s Wimbledon time. With sleek new scoreboard graphics.”

Another wrote: “Wimbledon score graphics are so fresh. Minimalist, elegant and instantly iconic.”

And a third asked: “Can you spot the major welcome change on the Wimbledon score graphic?”

But a fourth replied: “The new Wimbledon graphic stinks.”

A fifth commented: “Wimbledon f***ed up their score graphic.”

A sixth moaned: “New Wimbledon score graphics? Not sure I like it…”

And a final user typed: “WTF is this new scoreboard graphics of Wimbledon!!?? Looks super weird.”

KELSEY Parker has returned to Instagram to celebrate her six-year-old daughter on her birthday – just a week after her baby was still born.

Kelsey announced last week her third child, Phoenix Parker-Lindsay, had been “born sleeping” shortly before her due date.

Since then, she and partner Will Lindsay have taken time away to grieve privately as a family.

However, today Kelsey returned to social media in order to commemorate her daughter, six-year-old Aurelia’s, birthday.

Kelsey had Aurelia, as well as four-year-old Bodhi, with her late husband Tom Parker, who died of glioblastoma, a form of brain tumour, in 2022.

Wanting to make sure her little girl knew how special she was, Kelsey posted a heartbreaking video montage of Aurelia growing up – starting in the arms of The Wanted star Tom as a tiny baby.

The video then zooms through the six-year-old’s life, including birthday parties, playing in a buggy with Bodhi, giggling with her mummy on the sofa, and dressed up like a princess on a bouncy castle.

Kelsey wrote alongside the video: “Aurelia means ‘The Golden One’ and that’s what you are you’ve been through so much my darling daughter, but you’re the most precious little girl any mummy could wish for.

“I’m so happy we got to spend this weekend celebrating your birthday and turning another year older.

“I’m beyond proud of you and the amazing young woman you’re growing up to be.”

Nathan Massey was one of the first to send a comment wishing Aurelia a special day, writing a cheeky: “Happy bday you little menace ”

Louisa Lytton and Brooke Vincent posted strings of heart emojis, while Kelsey’s Mum’s The Word podcast co-host Georgia Jones adding: “Happy birthday to the cutest little diva I know ”

Kelsey shared the devastating news that her son, Phoenix, was still born last week, posting a poem to fans, “For Phoenix. Born sleeping, forever loved.”

The phoenix bird symbolises immortality, resurrection and life after death.

She added next to the poem: “Before I receive an influx of lovely messages and heartfelt well wishes, I want to just say that I truly appreciate everything you are all going to say and share.

“But with the news being so raw, I would really like to ensure that we as a family are given space and time to process this devastating and earth-shattering news.

“I love you all and thank you for your understanding and space.”

Phoenix was her first child with boyfriend Will, whom she started dating last September. At the time, Kelsey said she knew late husband Tom would “send the right man for her.”

They announced they were expecting in January.

ALL Saints singer Mel Blatt was left struggling with TWO riddles back-to-back on Celebrity Catchphrase.

The performer had managed to make it all the way to the final round on the ITV programme, hosted by Stephen Mulhern.

The second £5k riddle also caught her out – do you know it?[/caption]

Having advanced past her fellow celebs, Michelle Visage and Seann Walsh, Mel was ready to take on the final super Catchphrase board.

But things got rather difficult for Mel as she was left stumped on two £5,000 riddles back-to-back.

Having banked £2,500 on one riddle, Mel tried to play for double the money but was forced to pass on two questions.

As Stephen presented the first video catchphrase to her, Mel was left looking perplexed.

In the video, an office-like tower building could be seen perched on someone’s shoulders in place of what would be their head.

As the graphic flashed up, Mel could be heard speculating to herself: “Head, building, head in the clouds, building…

“Building head, build… Pass!”

As part of the quick-fire round, Mel was swiftly moved onto the next graphic but she was left struggling with that one too.

It showcased an office scenario in which three people could be seen.

Two of the men were wearing suits and featured “Mon” and “Wed” above their heads to represent the days of the week.

The third man could be seen in more casual clothing but had “Fri” written above his head.

Clearly confused, Mel stuttered: “Days of the week, Fri, Fri-yay, Friday, Friday… no, pass!”

Mel was then forced to take a third £5k riddle but managed to correctly identify it as The King and I in seconds.

But would you have been able to work out the ones that caught Mel out.

As the round drew to a close, Stephen went back to the ones she passed on to confirm the answers.

The first riddle, depicting an office building on someone’s shoulders, was revealed to be “head office”.

Whilst Mel kicked herself for not getting that one correct, she admitted she would never have known the other riddle she passed on which turned out to be “dress down Friday”.

In the end, it meant that Mel was walking away with £5,000 for her chosen charity plus the £4,400 she collected in the earlier rounds thus meaning a total of £9,400 for her charity.

Mel rose to fame in All Saints[/caption]

Away from TV, it was recently revealed that Mel had found a new career flipping burgers.

The Pure Shores songstress admitted “it’s nice to do something for me” as she opened up on her new job in a pub kitchen, whipping up her brand Full Fillings’ tasty treats.

The menu has previously included a slow cooked beef patty or jerk chicken option, served up with chunky chips and gravy.

A macaroni cheese burger is also a mouth watering option for veggies.

Earlier this year, Mel took to her Instagram page to launch her new venture at the pub – as well as her new business brand.

A FORMER Grand National jockey shown ‘lifeless’ on the Aintree turf to millions after a devastating fall is ignoring doctors and making a shock return to the saddle.

Davy Condon, who looked destined to be racing’s next big thing after being snapped up by Willie Mullins upon leaving school, was paralysed in the horrendous 2015 spill.

A Cheltenham Festival-winning rider, he had banged in winners for Willie Mullins and Gordon Elliott[/caption]

The Irish rider, who TV images showed face-down in the mud as on-course medics rushed to his side, was left with ‘spinal concussion’ and forced to retire aged 30.

Condon was one of the top riders at the time, a teenage sensation-turned-Cheltenham Festival winner and Group 1 champion.

But his world came crashing down that Saturday afternoon ten years ago when he was launched from Portrait King at the third-last fence in a Grand National won by Many Clouds.

“I was lying on the ground. I couldn’t move,” he recalled.

He spent two nights in hospital as a result with doctors ultimately telling him it was too dangerous to ride again.

Condon officially called it quits later that month and admitted to ‘feeling lost’ in the days afterwards.

But a decade later he has decided to risk it all again and race at the Curragh in Ireland later this year.

Condon will don his silks, lace up his boots and grab his whip for the Pat Smullen Charity Race on August 30.

The contest raised funds for Cancer Trials Ireland and is run in honour of nine-time champion Irish jockey Pat Smullen, who died from pancreatic cancer in September 2020.

Condon, dad to two young boys aged four and six, said he was moved to race again partly because of them.

He told the Racing Post they never saw him in the saddle – and now can’t wait to see why dad used to be such a big deal.

Condon, who worked as an assistant for Gordon Elliott before going to break in horses for Shadwell in Dubai only to return as assistant to Cheltenham Festival-winning trianer Cian Collins, said: “I wanted to ride in a charity race as a kind of mid-life crisis thing!

“I have two young boys who are four and six and they never saw me riding.

“They see the photos and are always asking me questions.

“I told my cousin Paul Townend I wanted to do a charity race and he pointed me in the direction of this one at the Curragh.

“I was emotional telling the children I was going to be in the race.

“They were jumping around the place, all excited.”

Condon won millions in the saddle, having been signed by Mullins at an early age.

He was a Grade 1 winner under the all-conquering Closutton boss, landing the 2007 Supreme on 40-1 outsider Ebaziyan.

Condon and Mullins also had success with the likes of serial winner Homer Wells, Holy Orders, Our Ben and Jayo.

But it was with Noel Meade and Gordon Elliott he would enjoy later victories, his final Grade 1 being the Irish Daily Mirror Novice Hurdle aboard Morning Assembly at Punchestown in April 2013.

THE money laundering trial of former Ireland hockey international Catriona Carey is expected to last four to six weeks and will go ahead in January 2027 before Dublin Circuit Criminal Court.

The 47-year-old, with an address at Rochford Manor, Graiguecullen, Co Carlow, is charged with three offences contrary to Section 7 of the Criminal Justice (Money Laundering and Terrorist Financing) Act 2010, one over a 12-month period in 2019, one in 2020 and one in 2021.

It is alleged that in each case, she engaged in converting / transferring / handling / acquiring / possessing / using the proceeds of criminal conduct. 

All three counts related to funds in a bank account in the name, Careysfort Asset Estates Ltd at Wise Europe SA.

Ms Carey appeared before Judge Orla Crowe today, when her barrister, Kevin Roche BL, said she was seeking a trial date. 

He told the judge that the trial would take four to six weeks.

Judge Crowe set a trial date of January 27, 2027 and bailed her to that date.

Two co-accused were also before the court. 

John Steadmond, 48, of Rossminogue, Craanford, Gorey, Co Wexford, and Paddy Maher, 57, of Glenmalure Gun Club, Glenmalure, Co. Wicklow are each charged with 17 related charges, including that they unlawfully acted as solicitors when not qualified to do so.

The bulk of the other charges against the two men relate to inducing a number of people to pay deposits, having falsely represented that Careysfort Asset Estates Ltd was in a position to secure finance for distressed mortgage holders, with the intention of making gains for themselves or others, or causing loss to another.

Each of their barristers said that there was disclosure outstanding in their cases and asked for an arraignment date at the end of the month.

Judge Crowe bailed them both until July 29 next.

A HUGE new theme park has finally welcomed guests in Europe after being forced to delay its opening date.

Hossoland in Poland was first announced back in 2017, and has hoped to open back in May.

Instagram

Hossoland has finally opened in Poland[/caption]

Facebook

There will be 30 attractions inside[/caption]

It has since opened, with the official opening date on June 27.

The theme park – in the village of Brojce which is around an hour from Szczecin – is spread across 400,000sqm.

And inside are four themed zones.

There is The Mermaid City, with the main attraction being the Mermaid Ride rollercoaster, which is a “fairy-tale world full of underwater adventures”.

Kingdom of Baltambrya will have the Poseidon ride, which is a swinging hammer experience.

The Dragon Valley of the Mines will be a dragon-themed land, with suspended rollercoaster Aurora.

And finally there is the Land of the Vikings with the Thor rollercoaster inspired by Valhalla.

Other rides include chair rides, swinging ships, driving schools and playgrounds.

Overall there will be 30 attractions, although was originally meant to have 50.

And it isn’t fully open yet, according to guests, with some of the rides yet to be fully up and running.

Said to want to rival Enerylandia, another theme park in Poland, some guests have been left less than impressed.

One wrote: “This is supposed to be competition for Energylandia? 4 rollercoasters?”

This is because Energlyandia has 18 rollercoasters which includes the world’s largest hybrid coaster.

Others said the ticket prices were too high for the lack of rides.

Another wrote: “The park still has attractions under construction, so lets hope those will be more thrilling.”

Some parents said that the park is great for younger guests with lots for them to do, but that there was a lack of adult rides.

Tickets cost 169PLN (£34.10) for guests over 120cm, or 1PLN (20p) for guests up to 85cm.

Reduced tickets for anyone over the age of 65 or for pregnant guests are 149PLN (£30).

This is for guests visiting during high season, from June 28 to August 31 with reduced tickets during the low season.

The theme park will be open from 10am until 1pm in the summer season.

Here is what it’s like to go to Energylandia, according to a theme park expert.

2023's final was one of the best in recent memory.

A STRICTLY hunk has signed up for Celebrity SAS just weeks after his shock split from wife and his debt misery.

Ben Cohen, 46, might be best-known as a Rugby player, but he is also known for his appearance on Strictly Come Dancing more than a decade ago.

And now Ben is gearing up for another television appearance after signing up for Celebrity SAS: Who Dares Wins.

A TV insider told The Sun: “Ben has had a difficult few months with his split from Kristina, having to sell their home and also having spiralling business debts.

“Celeb SAS is not only a good pay day for him, but it’s a new challenge to throw himself into.

“Ben is obviously a sportsman and a very physical, competitive player so if anyone can handle the SAS recruitment process, it’s him.”

This won’t be Ben’s first brush with reality television.

As mentioned, in September 2013, Ben took part as a contestant in the eleventh series of Strictly Come Dancing.

Then, in January 2016, he took part as a contestant on the third series of The Jump.

He won the series in March 2016, beating Dean Cain.

In 2017, he was a contestant on season 7, episode 8 of The Celebrity Chase.

In January 2018, he participated in And They’re Off! in aid of Sport Relief.

And in December 2023, Ben participated in ITV’s The Real Full Monty to raise awareness of cancer.

While Ben was on Strictly, he met and fell in love with his professional dance partner Kristina Rihanoff.

Back in March of this year, The Sun told how Ben and Kristina’s marriage ended.

The ex-England rugby star dumped his wife Abby to date Russian pro Kristina after being paired on the dancefloor in 2013.

But pals confirmed they had parted after financial difficulties tore the relationship apart.

A friend said: “Ben left his wife Abby for Kristina, only to now split with her.

“It’s like the curse in reverse.

“This will be like karma for Abby, she was so upset when Ben left her.

“It’s like he has got his comeuppance.”

The former couple. who have an eight-year-old daughter, have put their £1.75million house in Northampton on the market and Ben has been removed as a director of their joint yoga business.

A pal said: “The past six months have been hell for them and it has torn the love they had apart.

“For the sake of their family, they have chosen to go forward as separate individuals.

“Those close to them who know them as a couple had hoped they would be able to work things out but for now it’s over and it looks like there’s no going back.”

We also revealed the full extent of their financial difficulties.

The issues started when the pair went into business together, with Kristina also working as a dance instructor.

Kristina said the pair had “invested everything we’ve ever had” into their company Soo Yoga, after turning her passion for the exercise into a business.

However after the pandemic hit, they ran into serious trouble.

Their financial difficulties were made public in court last September, when Kristina was caught driving her £30,000 Audi without insurance.

EASTENDERS fans were stunned after spotting an iconic soap star in an Australian TV ad following her move Down Under.

The BBC soap alum appeared in Albert Square from 2000 until leaving in 2004.

Hannah Waterman played the role of Laura Beale[/caption]

The actress has been based in Australia for several years[/caption]

Hannah Waterman portrayed Laura Beale – who fans may recall for her memorable death scene.

Over two decades on, viewers were shocked to see the actress pop up in an Australian TV ad.

The 49-year-old featured in an advert promoting a casino game titled KenoGo.

Writing online, one fan said: “So I’m living in Australia currently and this advert keeps popping up on the TV and now social media.

“Is it Laura Beale’s actress Hannah Waterman?”

Another replied: “Yeah looks like it, and I read somewhere that she moved to Australia a few years ago.”

While a third chimed in: “Yeah Hannah Waterman has lived in Australia for years. She was in Home and Away recently.”

Hannah is the daughter of late actor Dennis Waterman – who passed away back in 2022.

While in EastEnders, her character Laura became Ian Beale’s third wife.

She welcomed Bobby in 2003 although initially believed her lover Garry Hobbs was the father – given Ian had a vasectomy.

However, it later transpired that Ian was indeed Bobby’s biological father.

The character’s final scenes saw her clash with Janine Butcher – while Laura fatally tripped down the stairs.

Late last year, it was announced Hannah had signed up to play a magistrate in Home and Away.

She had last acted in the UK for a 2013 episode of Doctors – but had appeared in a string of Australian dramas.

A source said: “Hannah moved to Australia years ago for a new life but she’s still acting.

“She loved dipping her toes back into the world of soap briefly and who knows it could mean she finds her way back more permanently.”

The role came two years after Hannah tied the knot to former The Bill star husband Huw Higginson.

Huw posted a celebratory shot showing their special day in October 2022 as they posed with their son Jack, 11, on a boat in Sydney.

The Bill actor gushed in his caption: “Got married to my love yesterday. We had the best of days.”
