Reverend Richard Coles burnt himself while having sex in a burger van.
The Church of England priest has recalled a moment before he joined the clergy when his hand touched a "hot griddle" as he and a burger man had "casual sex" in the vehicle, which was parked in a lay-by in the Midlands, England.

Chatting on the Rylan: How to Be in Love podcast with host Rylan Clark, he admitted: "I went through a period of having a very interesting and full life ... I discovered casual sex in a place where it wasn't often found, which is on the road network of the Midlands."

Rylan chimed in: "Dogging?"
Richard replied: "Well we didn't call it that then. It was meeting people in lay-bys ...
"It really was like that. There was one chap, I remember. Oh, it's just terrible. There was a burger van out there, and I ended up getting off with the burger man.

"Anyway he had to sort of draw the shutter down on his burger van, and then it rocked around a bit."
Rylan pointed out: "That must have been dangerous with that griddle."
Richard revealed: "Well, I put my hand back on the hot griddle, exactly. I got a burn ... I have to say as well, the food hygiene has got a lot better."

Richard - who shot to fame as a member of the 1980s pop groups Bronski Beat and The Communards - also revealed he has a lifetime ban from Avis rent-a-car after he got "s***-*****" on "ecstasy and acid" in Ibiza.
The 63-year-old star explained: "It was really after the band [The Communards] reached its highest point and we were taking a break which we are still on 35 years later.
"That was when sex and drugs and rock and roll came together for me and I took some time out and I went to Ibiza and I just was s***-***** for many, many months.

"There was one summer I went, and I went with a bunch of people, and we all just took ecstasy and acid, oh, everything really. And I remember we got barred from Avis rent-a-car for life because we got through a lot of vehicles.
"Mavis from Avis, she was furious."
Rylan had to check if he heard what Richard had said correctly, and asked: "Stop! Got barred from Avis?"

Richard confirmed: "Yeah, for life."
The former pop star also bought a speedboat, and he does not know its whereabouts.
Richard said: "I bought a speedboat and I don't know where it is."

Ellen DeGeneres shares rare look at sprawling UK home after leaving US

To view this video please enable JavaScript, and consider upgrading to a web browser that supports HTML5 video Ellen DeGeneres has given fans a glimpse into her sprawling Cotswolds home after moving to England at the end of 2024. When Donald Trump was set to be re-elected as US President at the end of 2024, many A-listers claimed they'd be moving out of the US. Ellen and her wife, Portia de Rossi, made the leap and ditched their life in Montecito and set themselves up in the ultra-luxury English countryside, the Cotswolds. The Wrap reported that the duo told friends that Trump's coming to power was the 'primary motivation' and that they planned to 'never return' to the US. Since their move, the pair has shared snaps of their slower lifestyle, which focuses on their chickens, sheep, and gardening adventures. In a sweet video shared on social media, the couple revealed that some of their sheep have made a habit of entering their home and making themselves comfortable. 'Our sheep keep coming inside. To be fair, we do have a piece of furniture that looks like a sheep, but that one doesn't try to eat our rugs,' Ellen captioned the video. In the video Portia could be heard encouraging the sheep to plod back through the kitchen doors to the garden, and not make themselves too comfortable in their home. The compiled videos of the sheep wandering into their home showed off different angles of their sunlit property with impressive glass doors facing the incredible view of their land. The home had various rugs laid upon the concrete floor and an industrial style throughout, which included the black metal-framed bifold doors. This contrasted with the country-style brown leather of the sofas and armchairs and patterned warm-toned rugs. On social media, the star has shared videos of the sheep on her 43-acre property where her 'farmhouse' is situated, but has rarely let fans see inside this home. Many of her videos detail the sheep managing to escape from their pen and end up wherever they fancy, such as in the garden, or even evicting the chickens from their coop. More Trending Other video snapshots on their property reveal that the couple also has a lake, swimming pool, and expansive fields surrounding their country home. Since settling into the country lifestyle, the star has even been spotted making friends with the A-list locals. A video shared by Jeremy Clarkson's girlfriend Lisa Hogan on Instagram, showed that Ellen and Portia were singing along and enjoying their drinks, sitting by the balcony of The Farmer's Dog, Clarkson's latest venture. '@thecorrsofficial thanks for the acoustic check & for swooping by on your night off the tour! Trilled to confirm @thefarmersdogpub sounds great. @jeremyclarkson1 @natalie_imbruglia @jamesblunt @ellendegeneres @portiaderossi,' Lisa captioned the post on social media. Got a story?
