Lewis Capaldi explains why he won't play stadiums amid 'phenomenal demand'
Lewis Capaldi has admitted that performing at stadiums would be 'terrifying' amid huge demand for tickets for his UK tour. Within minutes of becoming available, tickets for the singer's long-awaited comeback tour appeared on resale sites for hundreds of pounds more than face value. He announced two extra dates for Glasgow and Aberdeen due to the 'phenomenal demand'. STV News Tickets were on Viagogo shortly after going on sale at 9am on Thursday. Disappointed fans who missed out on the tickets took to social media to voice their dismay, with many claiming the singer could sell out higher-capacity venues, such as stadiums. Capaldi addressed the requests and admitted that playing at venues the size of stadiums would be the 'most terrifying thing ever' at this stage of his comeback. 'Seen a couple of people mention bigger venues, honestly after taking the break it's impossible to know how many of ya might want to come [or] not come to shows,' he said. Watch Lewis Capaldi: 'Glastonbury performance was worst moment of my life' 'Also looking at even bigger venues (stadiums probably the only option which is mental haha) would be the most terrifying thing ever for me, coming back straight into venues four/five times the size of an area would definitely not be the best thing for me to try. 'Hope you all understand, I really do want to see as many of you as I possibly can and your support means the world.' It is the first tour that the 28-year-old has organised after he took a hiatus to focus on his health. The break came following a faltering performance at Glastonbury in 2023, not long after opening up about his diagnosis of Tourette's syndrome. He said it was the 'worst moment of his life'. The singer made an emotional return to the festival last month, performing a surprise set on the Pyramid stage two years after being unable to finish. He credits therapy for feeling the best he has felt in a long time. The Grammy-nominated artist said he had previously been 'lying' to a therapist and 'telling them what I thought they wanted to hear' – but that he now 'feels amazing' after. 'I really struggle with it, it's not fun. I don't have a fun time there. 'I feel amazing after, it's like going to the gym, I think, which obviously I'm well versed in. 'Sometimes it can be really difficult, but I think I do it because I realise how important is for me to continue to feel good, because I've felt the best I felt in a long time through therapy, I would say that has been the cornerstone of like, why I feel how good I feel now.'

Emmanuel Macron's cheeky remark about Prince William uncovered by lip reader
When the French president arrived in the UK for his three-day state visit, he seemingly made a cheeky comment to King Charles about his eldest son, with a lip reading expert now decoding the message A lip reader has revealed the cheeky comment French president Emmanuel Macron seemingly made to King Charles about Prince William when he arrived in the UK. The French leader and his wife Brigitte arrived at the RAF in Northolt on Tuesday where they were greeted by Prince William and Princess Kate, before heading to Windsor for an official welcome ceremony. While on the dais with King Charles and Queen Camilla outside Windsor Castle, Charles and Macron exchanged pleasantries and, according to lip reader Nicola Hickling, spoke about other members of the royal family. During their candid chat, President Macron is said to have made a cheeky comment about Prince William, earning him a laugh from the heir to the throne. According to the lip reader, Macron commented on how tall Prince William is, while comparing him to his much shorter father, The Sun reports. While gesturing to Prince William, Macron apparently said to King Charles: "He is incredibly tall." Charles then replied: "He is very tall. He's six foot one, he is, ever so." William then seemingly joined the conversation to correct his father, saying: "Actually, I'm six foot three." Macron then is said to have replied cheekily to the King: "Unlike us, we're short!" King Charles measures in at 5ft 10, while Macron is even shorter than the monarch, at 5ft 7. The official welcome for the French leader certainly caught the attention of royal fans, with many left perplexed during the ceremony as Prince William and Princess Kate stood awkwardly at the side of the dais, despite their roles as senior working royals. The strange staging caught the attention of many online, as one person pointed out the staging on X, writing: "Am I the only one who objects to this staging? Who thought it was a good idea to place OUR Prince and Princess of Wales off stage like this? The optics are terrible." While several others shared the same sentiment, one royal fan speculated the strict royal protocol that had come into play for the scene, explaining that while the staging may seem unusual, it was actually perfectly normal given William and Kate's roles as supporting members of the monarchy. After the official welcome, the French president then joined King Charles, Queen Camilla, Prince William and Princess Kate inside Windsor Castle for a tour through the royal exhibition, before the opulent state banquet was held on Tuesday night. More than 160 guests were in attendance at the Castle for the event, with Kate making a surprise appearance in a stunning red floor-length gown. Other royals including Duchess Sophie and Princess Anne were also in attendance, while A-list names such as Elton John and Mick Jagger also snagged an invite. The royals involvement in the three-day French state visit came to an end on Wednesday when King Charles and Queen Camilla took a tour through the Windsor Castle gardens with the French leader, before bidding the Macrons farewell as they journeyed to London. French President Emmanuel Macron is the first European leader to attend a state visit to the UK since Charles was crowned, and since the UK left the EU. During the final day of the state visit today, Macron will head to 10 Downing Street for a UK-France Summit.

The Merry Wives of Windsor
Even the most hardcore Bardolator would have to acknowledge that in a hierarchy of Shakespeare's works, The Merry Wives of Windsor comes fairly low, being a hokey ass, canonically illogical spin off from the Henry IV plays. Essentially it offered the beloved character of Sir John Falstaff a brand new adventure, but one that lacked the pathos and grit of his original appearances, and also sidesteps the fact that he'd died some 200 years before the manifestly 'present day'-set Merry Wives. It's pretty funny, though, which is why it remains more performed than some of the Bard's sloggier rarities – this is the second time it's been staged during Michelle Terry's tenure in charge of the Globe. And frankly it's like a red rag to a bull for Globe deputy Sean Holmes, whose keen sense of the ironic and the ersatz has repeatedly drawn him to Shakespeare's dafter comedies over and above the serious stuff. And it doesn't get dafter than Merry Wives, a flawed play Holmes has done precious little to 'fix'. Indeed, one might argue that his production actually aggressively takes the piss out of it. On a patterned Grace Smart set that looks like Cath Kidson having a meltdown, a series of glorious eccentrics deliver their lines in wilfully stilted fashion, frequently blaring out particularly prosperous individual phrases in a way that is entirely predicated on getting a laugh at Shakespeare's expense. Lines like 'You Banbury cheese!' bring the house down. As Falstaff, Globe mainstay George Fouracres continues his mission to play every major Shakespeare character before the age of 40. Wearing a fat suit and silver streaked wig, he plays the old knight as a sort of satyr-like, semi mystical being, whose age and generally shambolic nature are belied by him having the vigour and athleticism of a man.. well, George Fouracres's age. The plot (such as it is) sees a skint Falstaff attempt to woo sundry married noblewomen around the town of Windsor in the hope there's some money in it for him. Holmes's earnest intervention is to show a genuine romance developing between the increasingly bedraggled Falstaff and Katherine Pearce's bluff Mistress Ford, who clearly isn't stringing him along for her own amusement. Beyond that it's pathologically silly, a relentless barrage of absurdist line deliveries and outlandish character interpretations: my favourite was Adam Wadsworth in the dual roles of the savant-like Slender and extremely French Doctor Caius, though kudos to Danielle Philips for wrangling a lot of laughs out of the unpromising character of Robin the Page. In essence Holmes's approach maximises laughs but takes little care to try and prod, poke and flatter Shakespeare's daft plot into any real semblance of coherency. Smart's design is a delight aesthetically, but having most of the characters wearing the same green print clothes as each other doesn't exactly help you remember who everyone is supposed to be, especially early on. But again: it's not a great play, and rather than bend over backwards to try and make it look like it might be one, Holmes has opted to have fun. And so long as you're not expecting too much from this flimsiest of works, you'll have fun too.
