Naked Gun co-stars Pamela Anderson and Liam Neeson reportedly dating
Anderson, 58, and her Naked Gun co-star Neeson, 73, have not confirmed speculation they are a couple but it has been claimed they have been spending time together at her home in Canada.
A source told British tabloid DailyMail.com: 'Pam is very drawn to Liam because he is totally open to her way of thinking and living, and especially her approach to fame, which is impressive.
'She has been telling friends he is smitten and does a lot of sweet things for her, like sending her flowers, and spending time with her sons and dogs.
'Pam cooks and gardens at home... it's wholesome and appealing and very un-Hollywood and Liam loves that. He actually gets involved.'
Anderson and Neeson are said to have had immediate chemistry on the Naked Gun set.
An insider told American entertainment magazine Us Weekly: 'They always had chemistry while they were filming and their friendship naturally developed into more.
'They are learning how to navigate it together. They are both shy and have tried to stay private but the spark between them is obvious.'
And, Neeson has received the seal of approval from Anderson's sons Brandon Thomas Lee, 29, and Dylan Jagger Lee, 27, who she shares with ex-husband and musician Tommy Lee.
The source said: 'They love seeing her happy and fully approve. They think Liam is great and have gotten to know him better in the last few months.'
Neeson has two sons, Micheál, 30, and Daniel, 28, with late wife Natasha Richardson, who died in 2009 at the age of 45 after a skiing accident.
He previously confessed to being 'madly in love' with Pamela as he gushed about working with her.
He told American celebrity news site People: 'With Pamela, first off, I'm madly in love with her. She's just terrific to work with. I can't compliment her enough, I'll be honest with you. No huge ego. She just comes in to do the work. She's funny and so easy to work with.'

Classic card and board games that are still winning big in 2025
Many of the classic card and board games from my youth are still going strong in 2025. These were the fuss-free, OG versions of multiplayer gaming. Bandwidth and battery life? These didn't even enter the equation – all you needed was a few like-minded buddies. If you're feeling nostalgic or want to introduce your kids to games that don't require an online connection, many of these popular card and board games are still available. Some have been updated with multiple editions – Monopoly Fortnite, anyone? We've compiled a list of some popular card and tabletop games that will give you serious nostalgic feels for your next retro game night. CONTENTS This was once the go-to card game in school and on family holidays. There are dozens of versions of Uno, but this seems to be the closest to the OG version currently available. It still features the same colour and number-matching gameplay, with Skip, Reverse, Draw Two and Draw Four cards to ruin your opponents' day. This version adds customisable Wild cards that let you write your own penalties. The premise of this card game is simple. Each card lists a vehicle's specs – players try to win all their opponents' cards by citing higher spec values. It might seem strange today, but a turn-based card game based on data and facts really did keep primary school boys entertained for hours on end. I didn't realise it at the time, but I learned a lot of interesting factoids that I still remember well into unclehood. It also taught me the importance of fact-checking – the bootleg packs sold by neighbourhood shops sometimes listed questionable stats. Shop here A perennial road-trip and travel favourite, this strategy game requires players to form a row of four same-coloured chips horizontally, vertically or horizontally. Numerous versions are available, including shooting, spinning and bookshelf editions. Shop here Clue (S$25.40; Usual Price: S$34.90; 27% off) Say hello to Colonel Mustard, Miss Scarlet and Professor Plum, part of this board game's gang of six murderous suspects. Clue (originally known as Cluedo), requires players to navigate the rooms of a mansion to determine the murderer, where it occurred and which weapon was used. Like Monopoly, this has numerous versions, including Batman, Ghostbusters and Harry Potter editions. Shop here The aim of this property trading board game is simple: Buy, sell and scheme your way to riches. We didn't realise it at the time, but this board game prepared us for adult life in Singapore. It introduced the concept of rental yields, the importance of transport nodes, prime locations and free parking. There are many variants, including electronic banking, Singapore and Fortnite editions. Battleship (S$33.99) This aim of this strategy game was simple. Guess the location of your opponent's fleet on a 10 x 10 grid and sink it. Numerous versions are available including one that introduces aircraft, electronic Battleship and this bookcase edition. It was even made into an action flick in 2012, whose main claim to fame was casting Rihanna as Petty Officer Raikes. Playing Risk made me feel like a master of grand strategy and big-picture thinking. In truth, we were just trying to conquer the world by drawing cards, rolling dice and re-positioning armies. Its gameplay feels simplistic now, but the straightforward mechanics offered hours of fun. And once the inevitable in-game alliances were formed, you quickly knew who your real friends were – and who you needed to crush like a cockroach. Shop here Subbuteo Olympique de Marseille edition (S$59.49) This was the post-exam game of choice in my football-mad school. Featuring 11 miniatures mounted on rounded bases, players took turns to flick their 'players' at a plastic ball. While matches often devolved into manic flick-for-alls, more serious players tried to maintain defence, midfield and attack zones. If you're keen on reliving your misspent youth, the Table Football Association of Singapore organises events for young and old. Carrom is similar in principle to billiards. Instead of using a cue and cue ball to hit coloured balls into a table pocket, you use a striker to sink wooden carrom seeds. It's a fun game for two or four players and I have fond memories learning to play this at my grandparents' home and later during NS. This set includes the striker, seeds and powder to help smoothen the board. Prices are accurate as of the time of publication. Discount codes for some products are available for eligible Prime members.

Peaky Blinders creator to pen new James Bond movie: Studio
Sign up now: Get ST's newsletters delivered to your inbox There has been no new Bond film since 2021's No Time To Die. LOS ANGELES - Steven Knight, the creator of gritty TV crime series Peaky Blinders, will write the highly anticipated next James Bond movie, studio Amazon MGM announced on July 31. Knight will work alongside previously announced director Denis Villeneuve to bring the world's most famous fictional spy back to the big screen after a prolonged absence. Amazon MGM Studios acquired creative control of the 007 movies in February, and has moved quickly to get one of Hollywood's most valuable franchises back into production. There has been no new Bond film since 2021's No Time To Die. Knight is best known as the mind behind violent British gangster series Peaky Blinders, which was set in industrial England at the turn of the 20th century and became a global hit. Running for six seasons, and with a Netflix film version currently in the works, Peaky Blinders turbo-charged the careers of leading man Cillian Murphy, alongside a stellar supporting cast including Tom Hardy, Anya Taylor-Joy and Kingsley Ben-Adir. In addition to Peaky Blinders, Knight also co-created the wildly popular television quiz show Who Wants to Be a Millionaire and has penned four novels. The Birmingham, England-based screenwriter, producer and director's other TV credits include Taboo, See, This Town, and All the Light We Cannot See. The Bond films, based on Ian Fleming's novels, have earned more than US$7 billion (S$9 billion) collectively at the global box office since debuting in 1962. No release date or title has yet been set for the film franchise's 26th installment. And despite frenzied speculation among fans, there has been no announcement on which actor will replace Daniel Craig as the suave British super-spy. Among the actors most discussed to be the next Bond are Aaron Taylor-Johnson, Tom Holland, Harris Dickinson, Jacob Elordi, and Ben-Adir – but Amazon MGM has so far refused to disclose the franchise's most closely guarded secret.
