The Sun03-06-2025

Shoppers are flocking to Dunelm to buy a 12-piece tableware set, and it's being compared to a much pricier version from Anthropologie.
The tableware deal has been reduced from £60 to £48 - that's a 20% saving.

Amalfi Reactive Glaze 12 Piece
Dinner Set, £48 (was £60)
Dunelm is a popular place for shoppers to upgrade their homeware, and it's known for its affordable prices.
The current sale is cutting prices even further, with up to 50% off, and the Amalfi Reactive Glaze 12 Piece Dinner set is gaining praise from Dunelm fans.
This gorgeous-looking set includes four dinner plates, four side plates and four cereal bowls.
So if your plate cupboard's looking a little mismatched and is need of a glow-up, you could do a full revamp for less than £50.
The name refers to the Amalfi coast in Italy, and this range definitely has that sunny, Mediterranean look.
So it's great if you're looking for an alfresco set-up when having guests over for dinner this summer.
There are four pared-back shades to choose from, but it's the blue shade that looks most like Anthropologie's.
Shoppers are picking up on the similarities too - the most noticeable difference, really, is the price tag.
Although Anthropologie doesn't have a set with the exact same 12items included, the Ginny range is a close match.
But you'd have to buy dinner plates, side plates and bowls separately - and they would all cost £176 altogether.
The colour isn't the only similarity, as both are made from a reactive glaze, something which is often used for handmade items.
This means that there are variations in the shape and pattern, so each piece is slightly unique.
This is something which is often used for handmade items, so it can give stoneware pieces the illusion of being more expensive than they are.
By buying the Dunelm set you'd not only save £128, but the reviews are much more positive too.
Hundreds of shoppers have left their opinions on the Amalfi set, with one shopper commenting: ''I went for the grey [set] - beautiful pieces, they look really expensive and classy.''
Another shopper praised the plate set, comparing it to Anthropologie: ''The nicest plate set I've ever owned.
''A dupe for a very expensive Anthropologie set and it's hard to tell the difference. I love them.''
A third Dunelm fan was also complimentary, saying: ''This is a gorgeous set'', and adding ''the dinner plates fit in our dishwasher without a problem.''
The dining set also seems popular as a housewarming gift, with multiple buyers mentioning that they chose it to give to a friend or family member for their new home.
If you're looking for the Med vibes at home this summer, just make sure you jump on this deal before it ends.

Mike Lynch's superyacht fully raised above water for first time since it sank

Tech tycoon Mike Lynch's superyacht has been fully raised above water for the first time since it sank off the coast of Sicily. Seven people died when the Bayesian sank off the Italian island on August 19, including billionaire Mr Lynch, 59, and his daughter Hannah, 18. Advertisement The 56-metre (184ft) yacht was seen being held above the water by one of Europe's most powerful sea cranes near the fishing town of Porticello on Saturday afternoon. The yacht's propeller, rudder and keel all appeared to be intact. It was then lowered again slightly and salvage crews say that on Sunday it will be moved to Termini Imerese – where Italian prosecutors investigating the sinking are based. On Saturday morning, workers could be seen on the vessel, which is covered in mud and algae, while the canopy and guard rails are mangled. Advertisement The full word 'Bayesian' could be seen on the stern of the yacht and a ladder which Italian coastguard officials say was originally on the ship to allow passengers to disembark was seen cracked and pointed upwards on the starboard side. Also visible on the top deck was the stump of the mast. Salvage workers say there were 18,000 litres of fuel on board. Investigators in the UK and Italy say raising the vessel is crucial to fully understanding what happened. Advertisement Balloon-like kit will be used to lift the Bayesian's mast, a project insider said. The yacht's 72-metre (236ft) mast was cut off on Tuesday using a remote-controlled tool and rested on the seabed.

He told PA: 'Lifting bags will be used on the mast, but this will not start until Tuesday or Wednesday. 'In the interim, the salvors on-site not accompanying Bayesian to port will be conducting a full sweep of the seabed site for any potential debris.' Advertisement Meanwhile, Michele Maltese, of the Italian coastguard, told reporters that thermal cameras were used to check for any potential fuel leaks. A local law investigator was also at the scene, he said. Marcus Cave of British firm TMC Marine, which is overseeing the salvage efforts, said: 'This was a complex and precise lifting operation to recover Bayesian, and followed a step-by-step programme of salvage work. 'The salvage team has progressed in a systematic way that prioritised the safety of all working on site and minimised any potential impact on the environment. Advertisement 'This care for personnel and for the environment will continue as Bayesian is transported into port tomorrow.' The vessel was originally expected to be raised last month, but salvage efforts were delayed after a diver died during underwater work on May 9, prompting greater use of remote-controlled equipment.

About 70 specialist personnel had been mobilised to Porticello from across Europe to work on the recovery operation, which began last month. Inquest proceedings in the UK are looking at the deaths of Mr Lynch and his daughter, as well as Morgan Stanley International bank chairman Jonathan Bloomer, 70, and his wife, Judy Bloomer, 71, who were all British nationals. Marine Accident Investigation Branch investigators said in an interim report that the Bayesian was knocked over by 'extreme wind'. The yacht had a vulnerability to winds, but the owner and crew would not have known, the report said. US lawyer Chris Morvillo and his wife Neda Morvillo, and Canadian-Antiguan national Recaldo Thomas, who was working as a chef on the vessel, also died in the sinking. Fifteen people, including Mr Lynch's wife, Angela Bacares, were rescued. World Report into sinking of Mike Lynch's superyacht Bay...

The tycoon founded software giant Autonomy in 1996 and was cleared in June last year of carrying out a massive fraud over the sale of the firm to Hewlett-Packard (HP) in 2011. The boat trip was a celebration of his acquittal in the case in the US.

Heather Graham stuns in a blue co-ord as she joins a chic-looking Sarah Michelle Gellar at the Filming Italy 2025 photocall

Heather Graham stunned in a blue co-ord as she joined a chic-looking Sarah Michelle Gellar at the Filming Italy 2025 photocall at Forte Village Resort on Saturday. American actress Heather, 55, looked incredible as she stepped out to the film festival in a busty bralette layered under a matching blazer. She paired her summery top and structured jacket with a set of matching high-waisted shorts. Adding inches to her statuesque frame, Heather slipped into a pair of towering, white, strappy heels. Meanwhile Buffy actress Sarah, cut an elegant display in a black and white Chloe dress, which is worth £1,350. She paired her sophisticated halter neck piece with a pair of matching black and white strappy heels. Heather maintains her youthful appearance by getting 12 hours of sleep a night and doing regular YogaWorks workouts, daily affirmations, and practicing transcendental meditation for 40 minutes a day. 'I work out, eat healthy, do yoga, and mediate,' the Gunslingers actress revealed in her Retreat Magazine cover story last week. 'There's a very hard, sweaty class that I love.' Heather also avoids white flour and refined sugar and she doesn't drink alcohol or do drugs. 'Eating healthy makes me feel good. I like cooking for myself and other people. And I love when people cook for me. Basically, I like eating,' Graham explained. 'Also, I do affirmations. I think they are very powerful. I work on strengthening my inner loving parent muscle, so I can be supportive and loving to myself. One of my affirmations is, "This is the best time of my life."' Missing from Heather's side on Saturday was her boyfriend, professional snowboarder John de Neufville, who she has been with since 2022. And while Heather never married nor had children, she has a bond with the 46-year-old Vertical Change founder's 10-year-old son Johnny. Heather previously romanced silver-screen leading men like Leonardo DiCaprio, Josh Lucas, Edward Burns, Matt Dillon, and the late Heath Ledger. The Chosen Family director-star is also said to have loved and left the likes of Scott Speedman, Corey Feldman, Kyle MacLachlan, James Woods, Adam Ant, Jon Favreau, Elias Koteas, Russell Crowe, Benicio Del Toro, and Matthew Perry. On June 10, Deadline revealed Heather signed on to be a recurring guest star in Mike Flanagan's eight-episode reimagined reboot of Stephen King's 1974 novel Carrie through Amazon MGM Studios, which is scheduled to film through October 17 in Vancouver. And last month, Heather was cast as wronged wife Sophie in Hernán Jiménez's big-screen adaptation of Jane Fallon's novel Getting Rid of Matthew, which begins shooting this October in Toronto. The extramarital affair rom-com will also feature Luke Wilson and Emma Roberts - according to Deadline.
