Strictly's Dianne Buswell teases baby plans with Joe Sugg after admitting feeling broody
STRICTLY Come Dancing star Dianne Buswell teased baby plans with Joe Sugg, after admitting feeling broody.

And in a new video cementing this fact, Dianne filmed her partner Joe with two doves in their garden.
Joe could be seen sitting in casual wear on a bench, while bending down to feed them.
He left his hand open with some birdfeed in his palm, and he doted on them as they came over to him.
Dianne penned as the caption: 'He would make the best twin dad.'
The Strictly star used a moving soundtrack as the backdrop to the video, and fans couldn't help but agree with her.
One person said: 'So wholesome a lovely person, a true gentleman,' and a second echoed: 'aww the little smile on his face. He's so proud!'
A third person wrote: 'Are they hinting at something,' and someone else wrote: 'This has to be the cutest thing.'
It comes after Dianne's exclusive interview with The Sun on Sunday, where she said: 'I would like to have children, 100 per cent.
'Joe and I love kids, and that's definitely something that we would absolutely love. I haven't really thought about how many I would like. It will definitely happen.'
Dianne, 35, who won the contest last year partnering comedian Chris McCausland, says it was spending Christmas with family at the couple's home in Brighton that led to discussions about parenthood.
The pair are already auntie and uncle to their siblings' children.
Dianne has a brother, Andrew, who is also a dancer, and Joe's sister Zoella is a media personality.
Dianne said: 'Joe's got two nieces who I also class as my nieces, and then I have another two nieces and two nephews in Australia, and my oldest niece is 15.
'I am a big fan of my little nieces and nephews. I love kids, I love working with them and being around them. Sometimes, I'm a big kid at heart myself. I think it helps when you can get down to their level. I'm very lucky.'
But Dianne said one of her biggest challenges may just be finding the right time.
She and fellow Strictly pro Vito Coppola have just announced a 30-date tour, Red Hot And Ready, starting next month.
And she and Strictly winner Chris — the programme's first blind contestant — have just launched their own podcast, Winning Isn't Everything.
On the prospect of motherhood, Dianne said: 'It is quite tough because my job is quite demanding, and I love it so much.
'It is a tough one to balance out and think about. It would take a lot of thought, but eventually one day we will get there, but there is lots happening at the moment. It will happen when it's supposed to.'

Campaign begins to save Turner oil painting
A campaign to bring one of the earliest works by JMW Turner back to Bristol has begun. The Rising Squall, Hot Wells, from St Vincent's Rock, Bristol, had remained tucked away in private collections since it was last exhibited in Tasmania, Australia, in 1858. Last year, it was authenticated as a pivotal early work by Turner after the artist's signature was discovered during cleaning. The piece, depicting the Avon Gorge before the Clifton Suspension Bridge was built, was the first oil painting exhibited by Turner at the Royal Academy in 1793, when he was 18. Bristol Museum and Art Gallery is now keen to acquire the work, believed to be the only Turner oil painting of the city. Bring Turner Home It has launched a one-week public fundraising campaign, called Bring Turner Home, to raise £100,000 towards the purchase of the painting, which will go under the hammer at Sotheby's on July 2. If the bid is successful, the piece will become part of Bristol's public collection and go on display this summer. Philip Walker, the head of culture and creative industries at Bristol city council, said: 'This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to bring a lost masterpiece back to Bristol, a painting that connects our city to one of the greatest artists in history at a defining moment in his life. 'Turner painted this scene when he was just 17, inspired by the dramatic beauty of the Avon Gorge. Now, over two centuries later, we have the chance to bring it home where it can belong to everyone. We want this painting to be part of the city's story, accessible to all and inspiring to future generations. 'We know this is a hugely ambitious fundraising campaign, with a ridiculously small window to raise the money – but Bristol is internationally renowned for its art and culture, and we just can't miss the opportunity to try and go for it. It would be an absolute travesty if Bristol's lost Turner is sold to a private or overseas buyer.' The council is believed to be the only public bidder attempting to secure the piece, which has an estimate of £200,000 to £300,000. Public ownership Bristol Museum and Art Gallery aims to exhibit the piece in as early as August before it travels to Tate Britain for its major Turner and Constable exhibition in November. A council spokesman said: 'No council funding will be used to buy the painting. Instead, the museum is turning to the people of Bristol and supporters of art and heritage across the country to help raise the funds needed to ensure the painting remains in public ownership, rather than entering a private collection.' Turner painted The Rising Squall during a visit to Bristol in 1792. It is based on an on-the-spot drawing found in Turner's Bristol and Malmesbury sketchbook, which he used on a tour of the West Country in 1791, and a watercolour the following year. The piece was bought by the Rev Robert Nixon, an early supporter of Turner, with whom the artist used to stay. Early biographies of Turner record that the artist painted his first oil piece in Rev Nixon's house. Rev Nixon's son, the Rev Dr Francis Russell Nixon, Lord Bishop of Tasmania, inherited the painting before it was acquired by publisher Joseph Hogarth in the early 1860s. It went up for auction at Christie's in London in 1864 before going to a private collection in Northamptonshire, until it was anonymously sold in April last year. During that auction, at Dreweatts in Newbury, the piece was wrongly attributed to 'follower of Julius Caesar Ibbetson', an 18th-century artist. Restoration work then took place, revealing the signature 'W Turner' on the lower left of the canvas. Until that point, it had been believed that Turner's earliest exhibited oil painting was a piece known as Fisherman at Sea, which he exhibited at the Royal Academy in 1796.

Open-air summer Shakespeare group to debut at Buckden Towers
An open-air theatre group said it was excited to debut at the 11th Century former residence of Catherine of Aragon - the first wife of King Henry group, formerly named Shakespeare at The George, had its annual residency contract at the pub in Huntingdon in Cambridgeshire terminated by Greene King last year, after 65 24 June, it will start a run of performances of Twelfth Night at its new home in Buckden Towers, a few miles down the A1 in Milne, chair of the newly named Shakespeare at the Towers, said he was excited to hear what both new and loyal audiences thought of the historic space. The George Hotel had been an old Jacobean coaching inn where Shakespeare's plays would have been performed, and it had been an "astonishingly authentic venue" to put on the Milne, 54, said: "Every single thing has had to change - from 65 years of learning how one venue works and how the space works and what we need. It's a complete reset."[But] what's lovely about this place is it still has that historical authenticity."It formerly belonged to the bishops of Lincoln, and at one point Catherine of Aragon was kept here... It had lots of visits from kings and royalty."He continued: "It's well preserved and it really does feel like not much has changed... You could almost imagine you're here in mediaeval times, perhaps hearing of this young upcoming playwright called William something-or-other." The towers is about four miles (6.5km) away from the George, but Mr Milne anticipated the move would bring in new audiences as well as long-term added: "We are hoping to bring them with us. I'm really interested in seeing what they think, what changes they've seen, how they would compare the two experiences."I think I'm possibly even more excited by people who've never come across us before."The show will run at Buckden Towers from 24 June to 5 July this will be a captioned performance, sponsored by The Evelyn Glennie Foundation and a touch tour of the set and costumes for blind and partially sighted people before the performance on 30 June.
