Vin Diesel shocks as he announces VERY surprising return for final Fast & Furious film
Vin Diesel made quite the shocking announcement about the final Fast & Furious film over the weekend. The 57-year-old actor took the stage at Fuel Fest in Pomona, California on Saturday night, where he offered an update on Fast X Part 2. He was wearing a shirt that read, 'Fast X Part 2 Los Angeles Production 2025' while revealing his three demands to Universal Pictures for the final film. 'The studio said to me, "Vin, can we please have the finale of Fast and Furious [in] April 2027?"' Diesel said, confirming the release date. He continued, 'I said, "Under three conditions." First, is to bring the franchise back to L.A.! The second thing was to return to the car culture, to the street racing!' Diesel concluded, 'The third thing was reuniting Dom and Brian O'Conner,' referring to the late Paul Walker 's beloved character. Diesel was joined on stage by his co-star Tyrese Gibson, who shared a video of the fans screaming when he mentioned Dom and Brian O'Conner. The video shows Diesel adding, 'That is what you're gonna get in the finale! Love you!' he concluded, as the video showed Diesel giving Paul's mother Cheryl a hug. Gibson added, 'I've got love for every other city and every other country, but this Fast & Furious s**t started right here in L.A.' The first film - 2001's The Fast and the Furious - was indeed set in Los Angeles, following Walker's Brian O'Conner as an undercover LAPD cop sent to infiltrate Dominic Toretto (Diesel) and his crew. Walker was still filming 2015's Furious 7 when he died tragically in a car accident in November 2013. Production was halted for several months as the filmmakers tried to figure out how to deal with the Brian O'Connor character. When filming resumed, they decided to 'retire' the character, having him drive off into the sunset, leaving his criminal crew behind to spend more time with his family, set to the iconic Wiz Khalifa and Charlie Puth song See You Again for a poignant farewell. They used the late actor's brothers Cody and Caleb as stand-ins and digitally inserted the late actor's face on top of the brothers for the new shots. Brian O'Conner has never been seen in any of the subsequent Fast & Furious films, though he has been mentioned and he's still alive and well in the film universe. That will seemingly change in Fast X Part 2, with Diesel promising fans that they will in fact see Brian O'Conner again. It seems likely that they could either use unseen footage of Walker from the previous films or bring back Cody and Caleb Walker as stand-ins with Walker's face digitally added like they did on Furious 7. The Fast & Furious film franchise has grossed a whopping $7.2 billion at the global box office since its launch in 2001.

EXCLUSIVE Revealed: Meghan's £6.50-a-jar 'crafted' raspberry jam is made on an industrial estate 2,000 miles from Montecito
Her pricey jams are said to be ' inspired by the recipe Meghan Markle crafted in her home kitchen '. To emphasise the homely yet aspirational message, a heartwarming Instagram video shows a fruity mixture bubbling in a pot at home in California as four-year-old daughter Lilibet praises it as 'beautiful'. But until now mystery has surrounded exactly where the £6.50-a-jar raspberry spread sold by the Duchess of Sussex under her As Ever brand are actually made. Today the Mail can reveal that the sweet treat is manufactured by the same US giant which sells her £9 packs of herbal tea. It also makes her sold-out orange blossom honey - priced at £20 ($28) a jar. Additionally the factory makes a 'strawberry and wild rose' preserve as part of a tie-up with Bridgerton - the hit series set in Regency England made by Netflix, with whom the Sussexes also have a deal. The firm - which has the decidedly un-Royal name The Republic of Tea - is headquartered in Larkspur, California, 350 miles away from Meghan's Montecito mansion. However its factory is 2,000 miles away in Illinois. Sources said that in order to formulate the commercially available product, they 'started with the version Meghan makes at home and worked to develop a version of it that could be produced at scale.' With half-a-million visits to her As Ever website after the last 'product drop' on June 20, a tie-up with a commercial manufacturer was inevitable to satisfy customer demand. Neither the Sussexes nor Netflix has yet confirmed exactly where the spread - currently marked on Meghan's website as 'coming soon' - is made, or where the raspberries are sourced. But a source close to the Duchess said that in order to formulate the commercially available product, they 'started with the version Meghan makes at home and worked to develop a version of it that could be produced at scale.' Nevertheless after months of marketing the preserve as an artisanal 'crafted' product, the truth will only increase scrutiny of the brand's sustainability credentials. Her website describes her 'signature' raspberry jam as 'inspired by the recipe Meghan crafted in her home kitchen' – and also says it was deliberately ' crafted with a fluid texture '. But a video shared by the Duchess shows that her spread is made in a factory, with fingers quickly pointed at The Republic of Tea, which also makes a fruit preserve. Last week Mail Online revealed that it appears Meghan's hibiscus, lemon ginger and peppermint teas are made by the firm thanks to tell-tale metadata on the As Ever website. Meghan's £9 ($12) tins of hibiscus tea contain 12 bags, equivalent to 73p per cup - three times as much as Republic of Tea's own product. The Duchess has gone to great lengths to portray the preserve as an artisanal product. There was an enchanting video posted to her Instagram Stories showing a bubbling pot of the jam and featuring four-year-old Lilibet Its 'Natural Hibiscus Tea Bags' retail at £8.45 ($11.50) for a tin of 36, working out at 24p (32 cents) per cup, albeit in differently-shaped bags. Republic of Tea also makes jars of Bridgerton strawberry and wild rose tea fruit preserve, priced at £9 ($12) for a 306g jar - working out at around the same price per gram as Meghan's offering. Its ingredients are listed as: 'Strawberries, cane sugar, wild rose syrup (custom rose tea blend, rosewater, cane sugar), lemon juice, fruit pectin.' Meanwhile Meghan's As Ever raspberry spread - it is not, technically, a jam because of its high fruit content - is made from: 'Raspberries, organic pure cane sugar, organic lemon juice concentrate and fruit pectin'. Meghan revealed for the first time in February that 'jam is my jam' – and recorded a video explaining why those who know her best are aware of her secret love of making jam. When she first released 50 fruit spreads and sent them to her nearest and dearest friends she was careful to point out that each one was home made at her kitchen table using her own recipe. On her Netflix show With Love, Meghan described harvesting berries in her kitchen, making small-batch jars, saying: 'I did save one of 50 for my mom.' Meghan's As Ever products including her jam launched in April and rapidly sold out Last night a source close to Meghan confirmed to the Daily Mail that Republic of Tea makes her As Ever raspberry spread but said the supplier was changing. The firm also makes her sold-out orange blossom honey - priced at £20 ($28) a jar - although it is not known whether it also manufacturers her newly-released apricot preserve. In a statement, US streaming giant Netflix said: 'Netflix and As Ever take pride in working with best-in-class vendors that meet our high standards for exceptional products. 'It's been exciting to see how much fans have embraced the As Ever product line, with the first two launches selling out so quickly. 'We're looking forward to continued success as we expand and release more As Ever products throughout the year and beyond.'

ROLAND WHITE reviews last night's TV: It's split opinion, but this delightful whodunnit deserves a second series
Death Valley (BBC1) The final episode of the first series of Death Valley opened at a school reunion. 'It's so hard juggling the aromatherapy with being a mumfluencer,' moaned Rhiannon Hopkins to her former classmate. I can't have been the only viewer hoping Rhiannon would come to a sticky end. Perhaps not ending up as the actual corpse, but definitely getting locked away for a very long time. Mumfluencer indeed. Just the word should carry a five-year term. In the end, it was a mechanic called Dean who was battered to death in the boiler room with a spanner, which at least was another Cluedo weapon ticked off for pathologist Helen Baxter. 'God,' she sighed. 'I'd love a lead pipe killing — that's the hard one.' Death Valley has divided opinion. To call it quirky would be an understatement. Interviewing Dean's wife, DS Janie Mallowan (Gwyneth Keyworth) complained: 'It's quite hard to get what you're saying — maybe you could try speaking between sobs.' If you take your whodunnits very seriously, this is not for you. It's basically a delightfully gentle comedy with a bit of violent death thrown in. But it's cleverly written, with plenty of well-judged sad bits as contrast. And the characters have depth and back stories. The star turn is Timothy Spall. He plays retired actor John Chapel, who is best known for playing TV detective Charles Caesar. In the first episode, he helped Janie solve the murder of a property developer, and she's been his sidekick ever since. They bicker like an old married couple. If Chapel were 30 years younger, this would end in a romance that would probably be revealed in a tear-jerking Christmas special. As it is, one of the mysteries about widower Chapel is his love life. There is obviously somebody, but who? This was revealed right at the end. I won't ruin the surprise for catch-up viewers, but the result was more bickering between Chapel and Janie (named Jane, by the way, after Miss Marple and Mallowan after Agatha Christie's second husband). A lot of loose ends were tied up in last night's episode. Janie finally made it up with her boss, DCI Clarke, a worryguts whose main fear is that he's not up to the job. Played by Steffan Rhodri, he is just one of an excellent supporting cast. He told her that she's been promoted to inspector, and Chapel had been recruited as an official consultant. Oh, and the mysterious suicide of Janie's best friend, Sian, a constant theme through the series, was finally cleared up. You know what this means, don't you? The decks are now clear for a second series. Perhaps we might even get that Christmas special. Pathologist Helen might even get her perfect corpse — coshed by somebody called Colonel Mustard with a candlestick in the conservatory.
