Mott The Hoople festival announced for Ross-on-Wye
A festival dedicated to Mott The Hoople is to take place in Ross-on-Wye, Herefordshire, later this year, the town council has said. The announcement of Mottfest comes after one of the band's founding members Mick Ralphs died on 23 June aged band's two other founding members, Dale "Buffin" Griffin and Pete Overend Watts both grew up in Ross-on-Wye. Mottfest organiser Simon Rowberry said the festival would help "flag up" how important Herefordshire had been to the music industry. He said: "That whole part of the country has been underrepresented in terms of its musical legacy."The band, formed in 1969, is most closely associated with the 1972 hit single All The Young Dudes, written by David Rowberry also launched a fundraising campaign for a memorial bench at Rope Walk for Griffin and Watts. The project raised £1,864 in total, with the bench to be revealed at Mottfest, which kicks off on Friday 3 October. Mr Rowberry described the response to the fundraiser as "incredible". "It took us a week to raise £1,700... It was just remarkable how quickly we managed to raise the money," he said. Follow BBC Hereford & Worcester on BBC Sounds, Facebook, X and Instagram.

Actress and Playboy star, 55, looks VERY different 36 years after finding fame as she's spotted in LA
The star revealed why being a Baywatch babe was much more difficult than it looked BEACH BABE Actress and Playboy star, 55, looks VERY different 36 years after finding fame as she's spotted in LA SHE shot to fame in the 80s as a Playboy cover star and Baywatch pin-up. More than three decades on, actress and model Erika Eleniak, now 55, looks very different with two tattoo sleeves. Advertisement 4 Baywatch's Erika Eleniak was pictured walking her dog in LA Credit: The Mega Agency 4 The actress and model now has a more alternative style Credit: The Mega Agency Erika was pictured walking her pet dog in Los Angeles in a black T-shirt and shorts, with a fanny pack around her waist. She looked to be makeup-free on a sunny day in California as she strolled in a pair of sliders. Best known for her role as lifeguard Shauni McClain, Erika is still quizzed about her time on set to this day. Last year, she admitted playing a beach beauty, famed for her red swimsuit, was much harder than she was given credit for. Advertisement "Running on sand is really hard," she told UPI. "Running in and out of the water is really hard. "It doesn't always look cool, either, so trying to make it look good and do it well is definitely not easy. I don't think anybody ever thought any of it was hard." Not only did the cast need to look good and be super fit, they also needed to learn emergency first aid skills such as cardiopulmonary resuscitation. While Baywatch is now most famously linked to Pamela Anderson as C.J. Parker in the mid-90s, original beach babe Erika still has a cult following. Advertisement She previously told Media From the Heart that her decision to leave the show came organically after it changed direction. "Originally, this was written as a serious look at lifeguarding. As soon as it changed and became a music montage show, it was so lovely, but for me, it was time to go," she explained. TV bombshell, 54, looks completely different with baggy tee, sleeve tattoos and no makeup as she walks her dog in LA "I will say I had really strong storylines the second year, which was great. "And I did get some juicy parts, but the show became something else. So for me, it was no longer where my heart was." Advertisement Immediately after her exit from Baywatch in 1992, she starred in action flick Under Siege, alongside Steven Seagal. Breaking out in the way Pamela Anderson famously wanted to with her 90s flop Barbed Wire, Erika played fictional Playboy star Jordan Tate, who helped bring a hijacked battleship under control. Feature films The Beverly Hillbillies and Chasers followed, before she became a fixture on reality TV with shows The Real Gilligan's Island and Celebrity Fit Club. The twice married mom-of-one struggled with an eating disorder and abused laxatives before going on the VH1 show. Advertisement Thankfully, she has overcome her issues and also shed her clean cut image for a more alternative look. Though Erika began getting tattoos in the 90s, her colorful arm inkings were only completed in the last few years. She explained: "Most of my sleeve work is probably within five years. It's been a work in progress over the years of starting and stopping, so not really consecutive." Advertisement 4 Erika is best knwon for playing Shauni McClain Credit: Rex
