Ed Sheeran and Van Morrison guitars to go under hammer for sports stars
Guitars belonging to Ed Sheeran and Van Morrison are set to go under the hammer to support the next generation of Northern Ireland's sports stars. They are among the lots to be auctioned both online and at the Mary Peters Trust's annual, Sport Inspires festive lunch this year. The trust, set up by Peters after her gold medal win at the 1972 Olympics, supports young people, both disabled and able-bodied, to achieve their sporting dreams. Morrison's guitar has been pre-signed by the music star whilst Sheeran is to autograph his Lowden guitar with a personal message to the ultimate owner post-auction. Also going under the auctioneer's gavel will be artworks by Lisburn's Neil Shawcross and James Bond actress Jane Seymour, also famous for American Western series Dr Quinn, Medicine Woman. Peters thanked all for their generosity. "It's early stages and plans are still being created, so expect a sprinkling of surprises on Friday November 21," she said. "It's a fantastic lunch and afternoon out for businesses, sporting organisations and individuals alike to help get the festive season well underway and it raises much needed monies for the trust. "I'd like to thank Ed Sheeran and Van Morrison for their huge generosity and, of course, my friend and artist, Neil Shawcross, and Jane Seymour who, in addition to her high-profile acting credits, is now an accomplished and highly respected watercolourist. "The trust also greatly appreciates the work our fellow board director, Julie Hastings, did to secure such a beautiful Jane Seymour floral composition and a coveted, signed, Van Morrison guitar." The fundraiser will look forward to next year's Commonwealth Games in Glasgow and the 2028 LA Olympics as well as paying tribute to the achievements of local athletes across five decades since the trust's inception in 1975.

Jane Seymour Reveals if 'Dr. Quinn' Co-Star Joe Lando Would Ever Appear on 'Harry Wild' (Exclusive)
Jane Seymour is, well, an icon. Born Joyce Penelope Wilhelmina Frankenberg, Seymour has had some iconic roles, including that of Bond girl Solitaire in Live and Let Die and as the titular figure in Dr. Quinn, Medicine Woman. One of the roles she played has become a cult classic movie, Somewhere in Time. I would wager to say every woman over 30 knows this movie about a present-day playwright (Christopher Reeve) who becomes obsessed with a woman from the 1920s. As he's doing research, he discovers he somehow was there back in that time period. If you've never seen it, you should check it out. It's free to stream on Tubi. Even though she is now 74, the ageless Seymour doesn't seem to be slowing down. She currently stars as the titular character in Harry Wild, a former literary professor with a knack for solving mysteries. She teams up with teen Fergus Reid (Rohan Nedd) to solve crimes the police detectives can't. Seymour sat down with Parade to talk about the new season of Harry Wild. 🎬 🎬 What can viewers expect in Season 4 of ?The new season of Harry Wild has some wonderful backgrounds and stories. We explore the world of horse racing, there is a great one in the ballroom dancing world, where some bizarre things go on that Harry, of course, enjoys because she actually likes to dance, and we have a serial killer who makes their decisions with a toss of a coin. We also see what's going to happen with Harry B (Lochlann O'Mearáin), and we see what's going on with Fergus and Lola (Rose O'Neill). What was your favorite episode of the new season of ?I think one of my favorite episodes might be the one that takes place in the convent with an order of silent nuns (Episode 402 "For Whom the Bell Tolls"). Somehow, Harry and Fergus have to figure out how to interrogate a group of nuns that have taken a vow of silence. I'm sure Dr. Quinn fans would love to see Joe Lando guest star on . Who would you like to see as a guest star on the show?Along with the viewers, I would love to have Joe Lando in an episode of Harry Wild. If there's any possibility, it's something we would love to happen in the future, and if I don't get to work with him on Harry Wild, I'm always looking for something really great to do with him elsewhere. Related: Get the Scoop on Season 4 of Jane Seymour's Acorn TV Mystery Series What kind of mysteries would you like to see Harry and Fergus solve in future episodes of ?As for future adventures for Harry and Fergus, the great thing about working with Dave Logan and Jo Spain is they always come up with a new and extraordinary world that they can investigate, and they never cease to amaze me. Every time I read a new script, I go 'Wow! That is something else I hadn't even thought of.' Can I think of one specific world I would like for them to get into? Maybe medicine, because I'm always intrigued by medicine, something in the medical world.
