Many have been looking forward to Solo Leveling’s latest episode but I do believe my reasons were a bit different. Everyone else was focused on Sung Jinwoo’s fight with Baran and I was no different. It is the penultimate moment for the protagonist who’s entire journey started as an attempt to pay his mother’s hospital […]

EASTENDERS fans cannot stop crying at the emotional aftermath of Martin Fowler’s death in today’s episode of the soap.
The fruit and veg flogger – who was played by actor Jame Bye in the BBC soap – died saving ex Stacey Slater in the Queen Vic collapse.
Stacey was struggling to come to terms with what had happened and couldn’t bring herself to tell the kids.
She got support from Kathy and Ian, and then from Sonia who gave her the strength to go home and tell the kids that Martin was gone.
Finally able to accept what had happened, Stacey sat down with her children and broke the devastating news.
“He was brave your dad,” she said.
“We talked about lots of things, we talked about you, all three of you. And how much he loved you.”
“Is daddy OK now?” asked Hope.
But before Stacey could get the words out, Lily said: “He’s dead, isn’t he?”
“Yes, yes darling,” Stacey said sobbing.
“Lil, he knew how loved he was. He knew how loved he was right to the end.”
The heartbreaking scenes left viewers sobbing at home.
One wrote: “That was one of the saddest episode’s I have ever watched.
“I cried from start to finish. I’m glad we saw Sonia and Stacey telling Martin’s children.
“It was heartbreaking. I’d watch again but I’ve got no tears left for now.”
A second said: “Lacey Turner is breaking my heart. It’s too early to be this emotional!”
Another addd: “I should not have watched this at 6am.
“Broke my heart. So many amazing moments. Thought the kids did very well at the end of the episode especially Lily who is one amazing little actress.”

Soaps are no stranger to dramatic stunts in the storylines. Not only do these moments create a spectacle for viewers, they also fundamentally change characters’ lives.
Here is a look at some of the biggest soap stunts from over the years.

A fourth commented: “Devastating, powerful, heart-wrenching.
“I do think killing off Martin is VERY short-sighted, but the aftermath is pulling punch after punch and is exactly how a death for a character like Martin should impact the characters.”
A Strictly Come Dancing star is swapping the dancefloor for the great outdoors in a surprise Countryfile presenter shake-up.
Radio presenter and Strictly Come Dancing alum Vick Hope is heading into the wild as the latest addition to the Countryfile presenting team.
The TV star will make her debut in March, kicking things off with a trip to Kielder Forest.
The 35-year-old is best known for hosting BBC Radio 1’s drivetime show with Katie Thistleton and Jamie Laing.
As well as her stint on Strictly Come Dancing, Vick has also appeared in I’m A Celebrity, The Daily Drop and Pointless.
Taking to X – formerly Twitter – the BBC Press wrote: “It’s official! Vick Hope is joining @BBCCountryfile.
“Vick’s first episode will air Sunday 9 March on @BBCiPlayer and @BBCOne as she joins fellow Tynesider Matt Baker to explore Kielder Forest.”
Vick will be joining regular presenters John Craven, Matt Baker, Anita Rani, Adam Henson, Hamza Yassin, Sean Fletcher, Sammi Kinghorn, Margherita Taylor, Charlotte Smith, Joe Crowley, Tom Heap and Datshiane Navanayagam.
Vick said in a statement: “I’m delighted to be joining the Countryfile team – spending time in nature has always been hugely important to me, so the chance to learn ever more about the world around us from such beautifully diverse perspectives and such a passionate mix of people who live and breathe country life across the UK will be so special and enriching.
“I grew up not too far from Kielder Forest which is where my first filming will take place, and have fond memories of orienteering there as a child; the opportunity to return and champion an area that has meant so much to me as my first assignment is an incredible full circle moment – I can’t wait.”
In her first episode, Vick will team up with fellow Tynesider Matt Baker as they explore how Northumberland’s Kielder Forest is being reimagined for the future.
She’ll also get stuck in at the Kielder Salmon Centre, helping to collect juvenile freshwater pearl mussels in a hands-on conservation effort.
Countryfile’s series editor Mark Beech revealed that he is “thrilled” to welcome Vick into the BBC show’s line-up.
He said: “Growing up in rural Northumberland, Vick has a genuine connection to the countryside, and we’re excited for her to bring that personal insight, alongside her vibrant energy to the show.
“We look forward to seeing her lace up her boots, brave the elements and head out to visit the people and places of our beautiful countryside.”
The presenter tied the knot with Calvin Harris just five months ago.
Agricultural programme Countryfile launched on the BBC in 1988. In its long history, the show's seen several presenters come and go. Let's take a look at the current line-up.
But she was forced to hit back after she was accused of flaunting her wealth with a topless holiday snap.
After posting a tropical beach photo on Instagram, harsh online critics who accused her of flaunting her glamorous lifestyle.
One user commented: “It’s nearly February, it’s freezing and no one has any money but thanks.”
Vick replied: “Ok next time will post a pic of my grim commute home tonight from work in the storm to brighten up the timeline.”
Another user added: “We know u and Calvin have worked hard, but it’s almost February, the weather is c**p and we’d all love to get away for a bit of sunshine.
“So thanks for flaunting your glamorous life when 95% of the country are struggling to pay some bills right now.”
The star hit back and responded: “I’m not on holiday, I was at work today, have been all week, well aware that it’s bloody cold I’m freezing my tits off right now. It’s a throwback picture from a past holiday, not that deep.”
The pictures were captured during her honeymoon with DJ Calvin Harris earlier this month, as the couple travelled to Mexico for their honeymoon.
A source told The Sun: “Calvin and Vick’s wedding was a day none of their guests will ever forget.
“Their vows were really emotional and the marriage ceremony included poems like Ernest Hemmingway’s If There’s Empty Spaces In Your Heart and Lori Eberhai’s Devoted.
“They didn’t stop smiling all day. Calvin and Vick are so clearly madly in love, it was a truly beautiful day.”
When he isn’t in sun-soaked luxury locations, Calvin has been releasing collaborations with Sam Smith and Eliza Rose.
SHANE and Wendy Lowry arranged a birthday party for their daughter with a hibachi theme that was ‘so much fun’.
Their eldest Iris turned eight along with a friend whom she shared the celebrations with.
In an adorable video shared to Instagram, a bunch of young voices can be heard reacting excitedly to the chef’s theatrical cooking style with huge flames springing up intermittently.
Shane was last in action on the course slightly over a week ago at the Genesis International in California.
He placed tied-39th across the four days – thus earning a pay cheque of $82,000.
His pal Rory McIlroy had an even more profitable outing as he bagged $270,000 for coming in a tie for 17th.
Sweden’s Ludwig Aberg took home the top prize at the third PGA Tour Signature event of the season at Torrey Pines.
Aberg produced a stunning late charge – sinking four birdies in his final six holes – to secure his second PGA Tour victory.
The 25-year-old edged out Maverick McNealy by a single shot after a tense battle.
The Ryder Cup star carded a six-under 66 to win on a total of 12 under.
During the third round, Aberg made the first hole-in-one of his professional career at the 140-yard, par-three third hole.
With the victory, he earned $4 million and moved to the top of the FedEx Cup ladder on the PGA Tour seasonal ranking list.
Speaking after his second tour win, he was over the moon with his victory.
He credited runner-up McNealy for his fight during the final round.
He said: “It was awesome, it was a great fight.
“I felt like I was in control of the ball flight all day and really proud of the way that I finished, it was really cool.
“The [par] putt on 12 was big because I think at that point the lead was at 12 [under] and it was a putt to stay at eight.
“It was so much fun coming down the last few holes trying to win a tournament, it is a really special feeling.”
Shane, 37, will next tee it up at this week’s Cognizant Classic in The Palm Beaches, PGA National Resort.
That tournament is taking place in Florida which is where he, Wendy and their girls are based for most of the year.
A SERIAL-WINNING Cheltenham Festival horse has halved in odds amid rumours of a big-money buy.
Seven-year-old gelding Willitgoahead has won four of his past five races for Irish trainer Sean Thomas Doyle.
He was last seen disposing of the ex-Willie Mullins-trained Festival regular Ramillies by three lengths in a Hunters’ Chase at Thurles in Ireland last month.

The ‘impressive’ winner was eased down over the line and was quickly put up as a 14-1 tip for the Foxhunters by racing legend Jamie Codd.
The ex-jockey, who has a reputation for putting up Festival winners at a price, said: “I thought Willitgoahead bolted up in the Hunter Chase at Thurles and I’d love a bit of 14-1 about him for the big one at Cheltenham.
“He’s an up-and-coming horse in the division, and I think he’ll be really suited by a bigger field, stronger pace and nicer ground at the Festival.”
Those odds have more than halved since and he is as short as 5-1 to win the penultimate race of next month’s meeting.
Punters can expect that price to contract shorter if his rumoured new owner is confirmed as part of tomorrow’s entries.
He already has half the favourites for Cheltenham, but whispers suggest billionaire Irish racing supremo JP McManus has dipped into his pockets for Willitgoahead.
Although nothing has been confirmed yet, McManus – who bought Turners Novices’ Hurdle second-fav The New Lion – already owns market leader Its On The Line, who finished second in the Hunters’ Chase last year.
Sent off 11-8 fav under Derek O’Connor, the Emmet Mullins-trained runner was pipped three-quarters of a length by 8-1 Sine Nomine.
Its On The Line is a best-price 7-2 to go one better this year, the same price as Angels Dawn with some firms.
The race could have some real star power if Lift Me Up runs.
Owned by former Spice Girl Geri Halliwell and F1 boss husband Christian Horner, the pair went crazy celebrating his win at Warwick last month.
Lift Me Up is as short as 20-1 for Festival glory.
