Cole Palmer: I don't know why goals dried up but it will make me better
While I was waiting for Cole Palmer, a colleague got out his phone. 'Did you see it?' he said to me. 'Cole congratulating Mummy Pig on having another baby.' We peered to check it was real, because on that sparse, cool, alternative planet Palmer lives on, you're sometimes not sure what is. And there was the Instagram post: the image of a newspaper story about series nine of Peppa Pig involving the arrival of new little sister, Evie Pig, with a comment from colepalmer10 beneath it: 'Nah this is so sick bruv congratulations Mummy Pig [fire emoji].' And then Palmer saunters into the room for the interview. We're at England's training camp in Girona and the players have had a recovery day. What did the 23-year-old get up to? 'Just went on a bike ride, didn't I?' And so it begins, another session in Palmer's laconic, bemused, inimitable presence. He doesn't do much press and last sat down with England reporters during Euro 2024, where he was unintentionally/intentionally hilarious about beans. This time there are fewer odd digressions and more football — maybe because he is slowly warming to the idea of being a star and people being interested in what he says. One answer stretches to five sentences. Short sentences, but the person in our group who knows him best says they have never heard him speak so much. He is asked about his season with Chelsea, which started with a cavalcade of goals and assists before suddenly going dry. Why? 'I don't know. You tell me.' Was it because he's young and such dips in form are inevitable when you're still growing as a footballer? 'I don't know. I just think it was one of them things when things weren't happening for me. It went on a bit longer than I thought it would go on. But I spoke to people about it and they explained it was going to happen. But they said that when I get out of it, I'll be an even better player than I was before.' Who did the Mancunian speak to? 'I know myself players will go through it. I'm not stupid. But it was just people at the club [Chelsea].' There were bumps during his youth career at Manchester City: did those experiences prepare him to dig in and persevere? 'You was a lot different. But then you go into Chelsea and you do that from a jump, and then you go into a dip, you just think, 'What's going on?' I don't mind. Obviously I did mind, but I didn't think it was the end of the world.' He's interesting on Chelsea's progression, suggesting that the final week of the season, involving beating Nottingham Forest to finish fourth before winning the Conference League, was crucial and that one of his big ambitions with the club is to win the Champions League. He already has a winner's medal, having been an unused substitute for City in the 2023 final. 'I always say, I don't feel like a Champions League winner, if I'm being honest. It doesn't really mean anything to me. 'People say it, but I weren't involved. Obviously I played in the group [stage] and stuff like that, but it's not the same, is it?' he says. He did, though, come off the bench in the final of Euro 2024 to give England hope of lifting the trophy by transcending a laboured performance with a brilliant, insouciant goal that made it 1-1, only for Spain to score a winner. He seemed so unaffected by the occasion, unlike nearly all his team-mates. 'I was just getting ready to come on like all the other games I came on, try and make an impact. I thought, 'It's the final, the last game, we're losing, I've got nothing to lose.' Well, we did, the biggest game of our career, but you know what I mean. So, yeah, that's what I was trying to do,' he says with a shrug. Is a strength of his being able to stay in the moment? 'Yeah, I think so. An occasion like that [the Euros final], if you think about it, it might get the better of you. So I just try not to.' It's stuff like this, being so effortlessly chilled about being a fabulous footballer, that seems to lie at the heart of his appeal to younger fans. In the playground and on social media they revel in his nickname, 'Cold' and his famous shivering goal celebration. Does he like it? 'Yeah. Obviously, when you see kids and that doing what they're doing and saying things, it's nice.' Is it that he has a charisma that youngsters, in particular, 'get'? 'I don't know. I'm just being myself.' There was a remarkable moment last October at Stamford Bridge where Chelsea and Forest players had a mêlée. Almost every player was involved. Except Palmer. He just eyed all the pushing and shoving and detached himself, sitting alone on the pitch. Why is he so laid-back? 'I couldn't even tell you. Maybe my dad is laid-back.' Does his family comment on it? 'My mum does, yeah. But my dad says, 'He's just like me, so just leave him alone.' What does mum say? 'Like, try and be a bit more involved and a bit more smiley and energetic and that.' When is the last time he got angry? 'Maybe when I played PlayStation or something. I'm not just a robot like you guys in the media think I am and don't show no emotion. Obviously when there's no cameras and I'm on my phone to my mates and I'm doing stuff I enjoy doing…' When we met Palmer at the Euros he made us laugh about adapting to life down south. When he signed for Chelsea it was the first time, barring matches and family holidays, he had ever left the north of England. He had said (with a little smile) he found southerners 'moody'. Is this still the case? 'They're all still like that,' he says. 'I think cos it's so busy, they're all stressed and that. It must be a southern thing. Sometimes I go into central London, but I couldn't live there.'

Mums issue stark warning about ‘dark Peppa Pig' videos going viral on YouTube set out to target and terrify your kids
Click to share on X/Twitter (Opens in new window) Click to share on Facebook (Opens in new window) PARENTS have issued a stark warning about 'dark Peppa Pig' videos that are going viral online. The famous cartoon pig is adored and often watched on YouTube by many young children around the country, but now depraved creators are taking advantage of Peppa Pig's popularity and creating harmful versions of the iconic show. 6 Parents have issued an urgent warning about 'dark Peppa Pig' videos that are going viral on YouTube Credit: YouTube 6 While two horrifying clips have been removed from the platform, others show the iconic characters holding guns Credit: YouTube 6 One clip showed Mummy Pig making Peppa Pig into a pancake Credit: YouTube The horror videos, which are set to target and terrify young children, have racked up millions of views on the video sharing platform. Pranksters have used genuine Peppa Pig episodes and re-dubbed sections of them to include shameful content. Numerous clips showed the iconic character and her family holding machine guns. Another saw the family cooking Peppa Pig in a pancake and eating her. Meanwhile, as reported by the Daily Mail, another twisted video showed the cartoon pig snorting cocaine. A YouTube spokesperson has since confirmed that two viral clips have been taken down, but there are still numerous videos floating around that millions of children may have been exposed to them. A spokesperson told the Mirror: 'We've removed both videos from YouTube and terminated a channel for violating our child safety policies, which we rigorously enforce.' Such 'Dark Peppa Pig' videos first came to light in 2017, when an investigation by the BBC found hundreds of harmful clips on YouTube which appeared to be episodes of Peppa Pig but were actually terrifying content targeted at children. In 2018, a mother from Melbourne, named Moonee Ponds, was taking a conference call while her daughter watched Peppa Pig online, but she soon noticed something wasn't right when she noticed the absence of the cartoon character's voice. As she checked on her daughter, she was stunned to find footage of a kneeling man about to be beheaded, hitting the power button seconds from the gruesome act playing out, The Advertiser reported. Four ways to keep kids safe on YouTube Fortunately, Moonee was able to protect her daughter from the horrifying clip, but wanted other mothers to know the 'kids' function on YouTube did not guarantee cyber safety. Minister for Law Enforcement and Cyber Safety Angus Taylor has since called on social media companies to be more vigilant with its policing of content. Keeping kids safe on YouTube RESTRICTED Mode is an optional setting on YouTube that helps filter out mature videos. It's not perfect, but it's a good way of scrubbing out a large portion of the adult material on YouTube. However, you have to turn it off manually for each browser or device your child is using – it can't simply be applied at account level. On your computer, go to the account icon – a little person icon in the top right corner of your screen. Click Restricted Mode, then use the toggle button to turn it on. On the Android phone app or mobile site, tap the menu icon, which looks like three vertical dots. Then go to Settings > General and turn Restricted Mode on. On Android TV, go to the Home screen then scroll down to the Apps row. Select YouTube, then scroll down and select Settings. Choose Restricted Mode or Safety Mode, then select Enabled. On the iOS app (for iPhones or iPad), tap the account icon in the top right. Tap Settings then Restricted Mode Filtering, then choose Strict: Restricted Mode On. On the iOS mobile site, tap the menu icon, which looks like a three-dot column. Tap Settings then tap Restricted Mode to turn it on or off. Minister Taylor said: 'I am aware of these types of cases. Social media companies absolutely have a responsibility to do more.' Meanwhile, a spokeswoman shared: 'All versions of the YouTube Kids app use filters powered by algorithms to select videos from YouTube. 'We continually work hard to make our algorithms as accurate as possible in order to provide a safer version of YouTube.' As well as this, Cyber Cop's Susan McClean suggested parents could protect their kids by boycotting internet streaming services and instead using DVDs or VCR. Joe Pritchard's Peppa Pig horror Meanwhile, a dad-of-two previously expressed outrage after his son started watching an explicit fake version of Peppa Pig while browsing YouTube. The seemingly innocent video started as any normal tale involving Peppa, George and her parents, but the content soon changed with references to a paedophile dentist, which was of course not included in the original version. Joe Pritchard, 25, from Cornwall, let his three-year-old son watch some genuine Peppa Pig videos on the internet. He told MailOnline: 'Jack is three and is in the process of being tested for autism, and we've found that if he watches a show for 15 minutes on the phone it calms him down and helps him relax.' If a slightly older child saw this, it could be traumatising. There is nothing to warn people that the content is graphic Joe Pritchard Mr Pritchard said he asked Jack about the episode he was watching and was disgusted when he realised the content of the video, as he recalled: 'My partner went to the kitchen when she heard the language and turned it off immediately. 'Some of them have Peppa Pig getting killed. We had to warn the nursery that he had seen this in case he repeated something. 'If a slightly older child saw this, it could be traumatising. There is nothing to warn people that the content is graphic. 'I think there should be more control on the internet. 'Now we're not going to be able to let him watch things on the mobile anymore. It's going to make our lives ten times harder now and it's a shame because he enjoyed it.'

Daddy Pig ‘breaks down in tears' in first-ever live TV interview
Daddy Pig became emotional as he gave his first-ever live TV interview following the birth of Peppa Pig 's baby sister Evie. In a segment on Wednesday's (28 May) episode of Good Morning Britain, Mummy Pig was speaking about how Peppa and George have been reacting to their new sibling when Daddy Pig began to tear up. 'Oh, sorry. That's me off again. It's been quite an emotional week,' the character told presenter Richard Arnold. The animated show has followed the story of Peppa, who lives with Daddy Pig, Mummy Pig, and her little brother George, for more than two decades.
