Cat Deeley and Ben Shephard arrived on This Morning nursing the effects of a late night after celebrating the programme’s success at the 2026 National Television Awards. The presenters tucked into bacon and egg sandwiches prepared by Jamie Oliver during Wednesday’s live broadcast, as they reflected on nearly losing the Best Daytime gong after the ceremony at London’s O2 arena. Holding the award aloft at the start of the programme, Deeley joked: “It’s really heavy, isn’t it? You almost lost it this morning, didn’t you?” Shephard replied: “We got it here, might have a little graze on it, but that’s…

US stock market futures were little changed on Wednesday as Brent crude rose above 100 US dollars a barrel for the first time since July, reviving fears that the escalating Middle East conflict could intensify inflationary pressure and delay interest-rate cuts. Brent futures were up 2.06 per cent at 99.94 dollars a barrel after briefly breaking through the 100-dollar mark. The benchmark last traded above that level on 24 July. The rise followed a fresh deterioration in the US-Iran conflict, with attacks on energy facilities and shipping routes raising concerns over the reliability of oil supplies from the region. Disruption…

The next James Bond appears to have been cast, with screenwriter Steven Knight suggesting he already knows the identity of the actor who will replace Daniel Craig as 007. Knight, the creator of Peaky Blinders, is writing the 26th Bond film and was asked on BBC Radio 4’s Today programme whether he had written the script with the chosen actor in mind. “It’s a bit of both,” he said. “It does make life a little bit easier if you know who that person is, but also you have to write the character, not the actor.” He declined to name the…

More than 36,000 Plex Media Server installations exposed to the internet remain unpatched against multiple recently disclosed security vulnerabilities, leaving them at risk of attack. The figure was identified by the Shadowserver Foundation, which monitors internet-connected systems and tracks vulnerable services. Its findings indicate that a large number of Plex servers have yet to receive the updates needed to address the flaws. Plex Media Server is used to organise and stream films, television programmes, music and other media from computers and network-attached storage devices. While many installations are intended for private use, some are configured to allow remote access over…

A Perth father and his wife have launched a $25,000 fundraising appeal to travel to Florida and support 15-year-old Eddie Park, who is undergoing treatment for an aggressive brain tumour thousands of kilometres from home. Eddie, from Butler, was diagnosed with stage four medulloblastoma in August and underwent emergency surgery at Perth Children’s Hospital days later. Surgeons were unable to remove a small section of the tumour because of its location. Doctors determined that proton therapy offered Eddie his best treatment option. The specialist treatment is being provided at the UF Health Proton Therapy Institute in Jacksonville, where he is…

Donald Trump Jr’s venture capital firm has rejected allegations of insider political influence made by senior House Democrat Jamie Raskin, setting the stage for a potentially wider congressional investigation if Democrats regain control of the chamber after November’s midterm elections. In a letter sent to Mr Raskin’s office, Alexander J Merton, a lawyer for 1789 Capital, accused the Maryland congressman of making public claims before establishing the facts and seeking confidential company records to support them afterwards. “1789 Capital welcomes legitimate congressional oversight, but it has no intention of being held hostage to political gamesmanship,” Mr Merton wrote, describing Mr…

Thousands of passengers faced a second day of disruption on Wednesday, 9 September, after a technical failure in the UK’s air traffic control system caused more than 1,000 flights to be cancelled or delayed. National Air Traffic Services (NATS), which provides air traffic control services to 15 airports, said it had fixed an issue in its flight processing system on Tuesday. But the resulting backlog continued to affect Heathrow, Gatwick, Manchester, Birmingham and airports across Europe. Heathrow alone had cancelled about 250 flights by early Wednesday morning, while British Airways said the disruption was continuing as aircraft and crew remained…

Declining confidence in capitalism is being presented as a management problem rather than an ideological one, with Yale researchers arguing that companies can rebuild public trust by creating value for customers, employees and communities alongside shareholders. Ravi Dhar, a professor at Yale School of Management, and Jon Iwata, executive director of the university’s Programme on Stakeholder Innovation and Management, reached the conclusion after interviewing more than 200 chief executives over six years. Their analysis comes as Gallup reports that 54% of Americans hold a positive view of capitalism, the lowest result since the polling organisation began tracking the measure in…
