A Queen's best friend! Animal lover Camilla is a hit with the residents at Battersea Dogs' and Cats' Home
Queen Camilla was in her element this afternoon, surrounded by adorable puppies during a visit to Battersea Dogs' and Cats' Home. The Queen, 77, unveiled a new dog garden at the shelter in central London, which was thought to have been originally created this year's Chelsea Flower Show by broadcaster and gardening expert, Monty Don. The outdoor space was designed in collaboration with the RHS and BBC Radio 2 and was gifted to the animal charity to help provide a calming environment for canines. Camilla put her best fashion foot forward for the occasion and stepped out in the capital city, donning a royal blue frock. The classy pleated maxi dress elegantly fell to the royal's ankles and was perhaps inspired by the Princess of Wales' stunning cobalt blue Roksanda dress that she sported for the men's final at Wimbledon on Sunday. In true animal-lover fashion, Camilla fastened a sweet Terrier badge to her chest to honour her visit to the animal shelter, which cares for strays and abandoned pets. As she toured the premises of the South West London-based site, Camilla, who lost her beloved Jack Russell rescue Beth last November, made a fuss of the pooches living at the shelter - and many of them returned the shows of affection. As she chatted to staff members in the gardens of the home, a little white terrier jumped up and tried to lick her hand and another black dog licked her white handbag. Elsewhere, Camilla appeared taken by a golden Labrador, beaming as she bent down to scratch his head. She also greeted other lovable pups, who were patiently lining up and waiting for their chance to meet the Queen alongside beaming Battersea shelter staff. The Queen rescued Jack Russell-cross, Moley, from Battersea earlier this year when she was just eight weeks old. It's understood that Moley is female and was born on Boxing Day and her mother is half Jack Russell, half unknown - while her father's breed is also unknown. It's thought Moley lives at Rat Hill, Queen Camilla's private Wiltshire residence, although it's expected she'll accompany the royal couple when they stay at official royal residences. The Queen revealed the happy news as she affectionately stroked a guide dog while meeting a partially-sighted museum group in the Beaney House of Art & Knowledge located in the centre of Canterbury's bustling high street in February. 'I've just got a new puppy, he's eight-weeks old,' she told owner Susan Mason, 66, who is partially-sighted. When Ms Mason asked what breed she is, the Queen laughed and said: 'You may well ask, a bit of everything. It's a rescue dog. It's called Moley - it looks just like a mole.' Before adopting Moley, Camilla rehomed her dogs Beth and Bluebell, from Battersea Dogs' and Cats' Home in 2011 and 2012, respectively. During her visit on Monday, the royal spoke to presenter Amanda Holden, 54, and model David Gandy, 45, who were also at the heartwarming event. The TV personality was dressed in a chic monochrome polka-dot frock, which she paired with white heels, whereas David looked suave in a crisp black suit. Camilla looked in high spirits as she unveiled a blue plaque which said: 'To commemorate the opening of the Pat Myers Garden by our patron, Her Majesty Queen Camilla.' She has been patron of Battersea since 2017 and had a tour around the new garden, which has shady spots for pooches to cool down from the sun, along with grass and also sensory elements with the aim of helping them de-stress. The actor had been seen charming Queen Camilla as he took his seat at Centre Court on Wednesday This area allows the dogs to get some respite from kennels and spend their time roaming free in a natural setting. Her visit on Monday comes as she appeared to be charmed by Hugh Grant during a trip to Wimbledon's Royal Box last Wednesday. The English actor, 64, and Anna, 46, who wed in 2018, put on a jovial display as they watched the match alongside celebs. After a weekend of intermittent rain and occasional sunshine, guests at Wimbledon were treated to glorious 26 degree heat as they watch Novak Djokovic take on flamboyant Italian Flavio Cobolli in their quarter final second on Centre Court. But the excitement of the Wimbledon quarter-finals was too much for Hugh Grant, as he appeared to fall asleep while on camera in the Royal Box. Footage aired on the BBC showed Hugh nodding off mere minutes after chatting to Queen Camilla, having arrived for the match with his wife Anna. Fans were left in hysterics as they spotted the moment during the channel's Wimbledon coverage, as it was shared on X with the caption: 'It's all got a bit too much for Hugh Grant.'

Sean Bean criticises green belt housing plan in area of Sheffield
Actor Sean Bean has said a plan to build homes on green belt land in the area where he grew up would "practically obliterate the character and nature of our area".Sheffield City Council approved plans to build more than 1,700 homes in Handsworth as part of the city's local plan, which council leader Tom Hunt previously said was needed to "tackle the housing crisis".In an email of objection seen by the BBC, Bafta-winning star Bean said: "It seems the council sees us as second-class citizens who will just have to put up with it."Sheffield City Council has been contacted for comment. Sadie Charlton, a member of a campaign group fighting the plan, said: "It's really boosted our morale and everybody's so thankful for him to take the time to put his voice forward because what he says in his objection is how we all feel."The 36-year-old occupational therapist contacted Bean following the death of another campaigner, Sapphire McCarthy, who had previously been in touch with him."He was really interested in keeping in touch about how the campaign is going because obviously he cares about Handsworth," she 66, who can currently be seen in gritty BBC drama This City Is Ours, submitted his objection less than two hours before the end of the consultation said: "It seems like this working-class community and its surrounding areas has been specifically targeted, while other more affluent, genteel areas on the other side of Sheffield have escaped lightly." Ms Charlton added: "Before 24 April I didn't even know what a local plan was, and that really highlights in S13 we're not as politically engaged as areas of the west of Sheffield."She said the campaign group was now called Save S13 Green Belt - The Sapphire McCarthy Campaign, in tribute to Ms McCarthy."Without her, none of this would have happened," Ms Charlton said."Not one person ever met her and didn't instantly just love her, and I suspect that Sean felt the same when he had conversations with her."She said Bean had first phoned Ms McCarthy when she was shopping at a supermarket, and she told him to call her his objection email, Bean paid tribute to Ms McCarthy's "valiant and impassioned campaign".Although the consultation period closed on 11 July, Ms Charlton said the campaign group would "rally on, carry on forward, get more people involved"."The community have really rallied around and come together, so this is just the beginning for us," she said.
