Darts champion Luke Littler will be pairing up with his close pal and popular internet personality, AngryGinge, for the hit programme’s biggest signing so far this year.

It is yet another foray into the TV world for Luke who has seen his stardom rise over the past 18 months to become one of the country’s most talked-about sportsmen.

Last year, he appeared as the special guest on Freddie Flintoff‘s ITV revival of popular darts programme, Bullseye.

Luke will make his first appearance on Celebrity Gogglebox this Friday alongside regular stars including Nick Grimshaw and Richie Anderson.

His co-star, Morgan Burtwistle, better known by his YouTube name AngryGinge has amassed a legion of followers since shooting to fame thanks to his infamous live streams.

It will be his second stint in reality TV after appearing alongside Made in Chelsea’s Olivia Bentley and Love Island star Chloe Burrows in the first series of KSI’s hit reality show, Inside.

In a video to confirm their appearance on the show, AngryGinge said: “Me and The Nuke have joined the Gogglebox family this Friday on Channel 4 at…”

He then threw to Luke to confirm the time of 9pm in the light-hearted clip.

Earlier this year, we reported how Luke was set to star in the second series of Sky’s show about arrows stars, called simply Darts.

His future with ITV was also revealed after his Bullseye success.

The reboot of the cult gameshow pulled in almost 7million viewers.

A TV insider said of a deal for the new series: “Luke will be getting deals thrown at him from all quarters, but ITV are confident that he’ll be tempted.

“This deal could turn him from being a darts star into a bona fide TV star.”

TRENT ALEXANDER-ARNOLD quickly corrected himself after letting slip he had been “waiting a long time” to join Real Madrid.

The defender was announced as a Real Madrid player after the Spanish giants stumped up £10million to sign him early from Liverpool.

Alexander-Arnold revealed his excitement at putting pen to paper on what he described as a “proud day”.

But he also dropped a clanger after suggesting he had been waiting a long time to become a Real player.

He said at a press conference: “Very, very exciting for me. A day I’ve been waiting a long time for now.

“Very excited, very happy, very proud to be here. It’s a dream to be here but there’s still a lot of hard work to do and I’m excited to get started straight away. It’s an exciting time for me.”

The England star quickly corrected that statement, clarifying he meant he has only been waiting a few weeks for his switch to the Bernbeu.

He added: “To clear that up, by waiting a long time I mean a couple of weeks. Not years.

“But I am very excited be here. Whether you support the club or not, you have to respect the trophies that the club win.

“No matter what, that has been always there for me. I have always admired players and clubs that win trophies.”

Alexander-Arnold, 26, showed off his fluent Spanish at his Real Madrid unveiling.

His short speech left fans stunned and won him applause from those who gathered at the event.

He said in Spanish: “Good afternoon. Thank you to (club president) Florentino Perez and the club for this opportunity.

“This doesn’t happen every day, it’s a dream come true.

“I’m very happy and proud to be here. I want to show Real Madrid fans how I play.

“I realise that I am signing for Real Madrid and that the demands are high but I am going to give my all for the team and Real Madrid fans.

“I want to show those fans how I play, I want to win many titles, I want to be a winner here and enjoy playing alongside the best players in the world. Hala Madrid.”

FOOD cravings and bump size are among the most common myths expectant parents believe.

But half of parents believed myths during pregnancy that turned out to be false, according to new research.

Myths aren’t facts. And they definitely aren’t a substitute for understanding your own body and the right professional advice, says doula Carly Sandland[/caption]

By just looking at the bump and analysing pregnancy cravings, the challenge is to decide if it’s a boy or a girl.

According to these commonly believed myths, carrying the baby high in the womb means it’s a girl, while lower means a boy.

And salty or sour cravings point towards a boy whereas those craving sweet things are carrying a girl.

It comes after research, commissioned by Vitabiotics Pregnacare, found 47 per cent of new parents originally believed well-known myths during pregnancy that they later realised weren’t all true.

A poll of 1,000 parents of children aged 0-10 found 11 per cent of those believed having sour cravings during the first trimester indicated you were expecting a boy.

While the same percentage (11 per cent) thought carrying the baby high up in the womb meant you would be welcoming a little girl to the world.

And 12 per cent believed that experiencing an influx of spots on your skin also indicated a female.

But 79 per cent feel at least a few of the superstitions about pregnancy that they’d heard about and believed in ended up coming true.

As a result, 51 per cent of those who had heard of a superstition used this to try and predict their baby’s gender.

With 44 per cent of these trying the ‘swinging ring test’ – where you tie a ring to a string and swing it over the belly to see which way it moves.

Carly Sandland, doula and founder of The Doula Club, which matches pregnant women with doulas to provide support to families during pregnancy, labour, birth and postpartum, said: “As a doula, I’ve heard every pregnancy myth going.

“Carrying high? Must be a boy. Bad skin? Definitely a girl. Craving savoury food? That’s obviously a boy.

“It’s amazing how confidently people will make these calls – even from complete strangers in the supermarket.

“What this research shows is how common these myths still are – and how many people believe them, even just a little.

“But why not enjoy the guessing games? Have a laugh at the wild ones, and let people guess if they must. But don’t let any of it carry more weight than it deserves.

“Myths aren’t facts. And they definitely aren’t a substitute for understanding your own body and the right professional advice.

“If something feels off, ask questions. If it doesn’t sit right, trust yourself.”

Parents-to-be who have heard about pregnancy myths also believed severe morning sickness would suggest a female baby, while mild sickness pointed towards a boy (14 per cent).

While 10 per cent thought jumping up and down vigorously after sex would stop conception happening.

It also emerged 30 per cent of those who tried to use a superstition to guess the baby’s gender had a go at the ‘key test’, where the expectant parent is observed picking up a key and if they opt to grab it by the narrow end, it means a girl is due.

And while 53 per cent of new parents asked friends and family for advice about their baby’s arrival, 42 per cent turned to Google – and 23 per cent searched social media.

But 13 per cent of parents who had heard about myths or superstitions claim they influenced their expectations of pregnancy ‘a lot’, according to the OnePoll.com figures.

A spokesperson for Vitabiotics Pregnacare added: “Of course, not all of these tales are rooted in fact – but they can still be surprisingly persuasive.

“While these stories are usually fairly harmless, it’s always best to check anything that may be concerning or unusual with a midwife or medical professional.”

THIS is the moment a battered Fiat 500 races BACKWARDS up a street and does donuts on a patch of grass after broad daylight chaos erupted.

Up to 60 yobs – many wearing balaclavas – sparked carnage on the streets in Salford, Greater Manchester, yesterday afternoon.

Riot cops were called in to tackle the chaos, which saw a police car’s windscreen smashed in and hooded yobs on bikes taking to the streets.

Four arrests have been made following the disorder, including a 16-year-old girl who has been charged with assaulting a police officer.

She has been released on bail and is due to appear in court at a later date.

Shocking footage shows a white Fiat 500 speeding down the road with its boot door wide open.

In the video, the car – which had a missing bumper and an open boot – can be seen reversing down the road.

After pacing up and down the street, the vehicle sped onto the pavement and began doing donuts on a local lawn.

The Fiat was driven by a group of masked youths, who can be seen dangling out of the car’s windows.

Meanwhile, a black car tried to pass through the chaos but was forced to repeatedly stop due to the Fiat’s erratic driving.

Bins had also been laid out across the road, making it even more difficult for vehicles to pass.

In a separate video, several youths can be seen stalking the street on motorbikes and hanging from another black vehicle.

The yobs also set fire to a vehicle and smashed the windscreen of one of a cop car.

GMP Superintendent Marcus Noden said: “This sort of behaviour will not be tolerated and we took robust and appropriate action.

“In response to this disorder we have dispatched a large number of officers to the scene, and we now have a dispersal order in place until 2pm tomorrow afternoon (Thursday 12 June 2025).

“A large number of officers will be remaining in the area over night as a precaution.

“We are aware of speculation online that this incident is linked to immigration, this is categorically incorrect.

“There are currently no ongoing incidents in the area, however, tensions remain heightened, and we have robust plans in place, should we need to respond to any further incidents.

“I would also like to thank members of the public for their patience and support while we continue to deal with this incident.”

The GMP confirmed that one girl had been arrested for assaulting a police officer, as several hooded figures through bricks at officers.

Alan Shearer has predicted which club Viktor Gyokeres will join after holding talks with Manchester United and Arsenal.

Gyokeres is expected to be the subject of a big-money move this summer after another superb season at Sporting Lisbon.

The 27-year-old scored 54 goals in all competitions – more than a goal a game – as Sporting clinched the Portuguese league title.

That followed the 43 goals he scored during his first season at Sporting after being signed from Championship side Coventry City in 2023.

Manchester United emerged as the frontrunners to sign Gyokeres following Ruben Amorim’s move from Sporting to Old Trafford in November.

Amorim is keen to sign a new No. 9 this summer following Rasmus Hojlund and Joshua Zirzkee’s disappointing seasons and enjoyed working with Gyokeres.

Failing to qualify for the Champions League harmed United’s chances of signing the Sweden international but they still intend to win the transfer race.

They will, however, have to see off competition from Premier League rivals Arsenal to secure a deal for Gyokeres.

The Gunners held talks with Gyokeres’ representatives earlier this week and are lining up their first official bid after Mikel Arteta instructed the club to bolster his attacking options.

Arsenal have also been linked with Benjamin Sesko and may be forced to focus on the RB Leipzig forward as Shearer expects Gyokeres to end up at Manchester United.

Gyokeres could become Amorim’s third signing of the summer following Matheus Cunha – who has made a £62.5m move from Wolves – and Bryan Mbeumo, who is in talks over joining from Brentford.

Discussing the state of play at Old Trafford, Shearer told Betfair: ‘Bruno Fernandes was the only plus point for Manchester United last season – God knows where they would have been without him.

‘They’ve got Matheus Cunha in and we’re going to see a big turnover of players in the next two months at United. They have to get a number of players out, and to do that they have to get a number of players in for that club to have a refresh.

Shearer tips Gyokeres for Man Utd transfer

‘It’s been so bad for so long, but everything came together in a bad way which they didn’t want to see this season for Man United. It’s a huge pre-season for them in terms of who they’re getting in and out.

‘The Bryan Mbeumo transfer isn’t done yet and I know that other clubs were in for him including Newcastle. Whether Spurs try to hijack that if they get Thomas Frank in, which it seems that’ll be the case.

‘On Viktor Gyokeres, I’m not surprised at all if they get him because of his work with Sporting and Ruben Amorim before, I think that was always going to be the case.

‘They’re not in Europe this year, they’re not in the Champions League and they’re going to have to pay huge wages to get the players and tempt them away from other clubs that are going to be interested in them.’

Gyokeres was thought to be available for around £58m earlier in the year but Sporting Lisbon say offers closer to his release clause of £84m will be needed to prise him away from the Portuguese champions.

‘Threats, blackmail and insults don’t work with me,’ Sporting president Frederico Varandas said. ‘I can guarantee that Viktor Gyokeres will not leave for 60+10 million because I never promised him that.

‘This game that the agent is playing only makes the situation worse. [Are there offers for 60 million?] To this day, Sporting has not had an offer for Viktor Gyokeres, neither today nor last season.’
