'The Sinclairs are American royalty—known for their good looks, old money, and enviable bond—but after a mysterious accident changes Cadence's life forever, everyone, including her beloved Liars, seems to have something to hide.' Luckily, there's a perfect way to stay cool and entertained without leaving the comfort of your home, binge watching a brand new TV series. Pic: Prime Video
Set on the family's private isle Beechwood, near the Kennedy stronghold Martha's Vineyard, the show stars 'the Liars': Emily Alyn Lind as Cadence Sinclair Eastman, Shubham Maheshwari as Gat Patil, Esther McGregor as Mirren Sinclair Sheffield, Joseph Zada as Johnny Sinclair Dennis; alongside Caitlin FitzGerald as Penny Sinclair, Mamie Gummer as Carrie Sinclair, Candice King as Bess Sinclair, Rahul Kohli as Ed Patil, and David Morse as Harris Sinclair.
The series is written and executive produced by co-showrunners Julie Plec (The Vampire Diaries, Legacies) and Carina Adly MacKenzie (Roswell, New Mexico, The Originals).

'Just binge watched the entire season of we were liars and i literally can't stop crying even though i knew what happened this show was outstanding, if you need a good cry you should watch,' another added.
'Finished watching we were liars in one sitting and I'm emotionally wrecked,' a third penned.

Fears over WWE with promotion heading to Saudi Arabia for Night of Champions amid Iran's warning to US

FEARS are rising over the WWE's Night of Champions after Iran's warning to the US. The wrestling promotion have scheduled the big fixture for June 28 - next Saturday. 6 WWE's Night of Champions is scheduled for Riyadh, Saudi Arabia next Saturday Credit: Getty 6 Travelling to the Middle East could be complicated by the US' bombing of Iranian nuclear sites Credit: Reuters And the action is due to take place at the Kingdom Arena in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia. John Cena is expected to be part of the action, defending his Undisputed WWE Championship against CM Punk. However, fans are growing increasingly worried about the Night of Champions. It comes after READ MORE IN WWE America used covert tactics and the world's biggest conventional bombs to inflict the devastating bombardment. US Defence Secretary Pete Hegseth said Operation Midnight Hammer was 'an incredible and overwhelming success' that took months and weeks of planning. But Iran - who are set to meet with the Kremlin on Monday - vowed the "outrageous" attacks would have "everlasting consequences". And an Iranian state television anchor claimed that "every American citizen or military personnel in the region is now a target" and that Iran will finish the conflict Trump started. Most read in WWE The reason this affects the WWE show is because the United States have bases in Saudi Arabia - thus fitting the category of targets outlined by Iranian TV. To complicate matters further, the UK have advised citizens - including wrestlers and WWE fans - 6 6 On Sunday, the British Government also updated information for Saudi Arabia, advising against all travel within 10km of the Yemen border and all but essential travel within 10-80km of the Yemen border. And fans looking forward to the Night of Champions are growing increasingly concerned. One wrote: "With the ever rapid developments happening in that part of the world and especially with what's happened tonight, there's a high chance this ends up getting cancelled. At this point some of the wrestlers might even decide to back out for safety." Another said: "If there was ever a time for WWE to cancel a Saudi Arabia show now is the time they're seriously about to send their entire roster right here in a week." A third added: "Needs to be cancelled and moved to Vegas immediately." And a fourth commented: "To be fair, the event should be postponed or scrapped altogether. Talent's safety should be the primary concern for any wrestling company." WWE is yet to make any statement on next weekend's event. SunSport has contacted WWE for comment. 6 President Donald Trump and his officials labelled the devastating attacks as a huge success Credit: Alamy 6 Satellite images of the Fordow complex where US bombs were dropped Credit: Reuters

Zach Bryan reveals his favourite Irish pub – and left jaw-dropping tip for staff

Zach the lad | Staff gobsmacked as the American country superstar gives €6K tip to three staff members The singer, who is performing to 180,000 fans at the Phoenix Park this weekend, with the final of three shows taking place this evening, spent Wednesday night drinking in The Celt on Dublin's Talbot Street after landing in Ireland that day. 'Shout out to the Celt last night, best damn bar in Ireland,' Bryan posted on his Instagram after the visit. And yesterday publican Noel Tynan, the owner of The Celt, told how the Something In The Orange singer gave his three bar staff a total of €6,000 as a tip after hearing how one of them was working late night to pay his college fees. 'Zach was at the counter talking to staff and one of them said he was a student,' Noel reveals. Country star Zach Bryan arm-wrestling pub owner Noel Tynan 'He was asking why he was working so late and he said he was doing it to get a few bob for college. 'Maybe I'll help you,' Zach said. 'So he left a tip of €6,000 for the three of them and said, 'That's his fees paid for now.' He also gave me tickets for a couple of terminally ill children from Crumlin Hospital to attend the show tonight. 'Zach is the most down-to-earth young fella you'll ever meet. He first came here two years ago when he played a couple of nights at The Helix. 'Hugo Keenan the rugby player is pretty friendly with him and my son, Donnacha, is good friends with Hugo. It was Hugo who had brought him back here the first time. 'They had been down in Temple Bar, but it wasn't Zach's scene. He's from a small place called Oologah in Oklahoma, which has a population of 4,000 people. 'Hugo said, 'I know a great pub,' and he brought him here that night and sure he loved it. We have a great mix of tourists and locals and there's a couple of characters in the pub as well and they like that. There's a great céad míle fáilte. The bar staff chat to everyone. 'My son, Donnacha, is a good guitar player and singer. He did a number of Irish ballads for Zach that night and the next thing Zach started singing. He's on YouTube singing songs in The Celt two years ago.' Country star Zach Bryan News in 90 Seconds - June 22nd On Wednesday night Bryan took The Celt's owner Noel Tynan in an arm wrestle – later posting a photo on social media. 'It was a serious arm wrestle and I've seldom been beaten, even by rugby players, but I was shocked how quick he put me down,' Noel said yesterday. 'He's as strong as an ox.' Noel also revealed that while Zach hasn't been back to the bar, which was mobbed on Wednesday after he revealed he was drinking there, his dad Dewayne Bryan has been in The Celt every day since – and was yesterday mingling with country fans and Limerick hurling supporters in the pub.' 'In the last couple of days Dewayne has been giving tickets for Zach's concert to people in the pub who get up and sing,' Noel added. Although most people in Ireland weren't familiar with Zach Bryan before this weekend – his followers found him on YouTube and various music platforms. He first began uploading his songs to YouTube in 2017, with his buddies filming him live on his iPhone. One of his songs, Heading South, finally went viral, which set him on the road to the success he's enjoying today. Following his debut on the Grand Ole Opry in 2021, he then got a record contract with Warner Records. On Spotify, Zach, whose hits include I Remember Everything, was the third most streamed artist of 2024 in the US, with Taylor Swift being tops and Drake in second place.
