Luke Littler to star in different sport on ITV as darts sensation, 18, links up with Tony Bellew and Barry Hearn
Click to share on X/Twitter (Opens in new window) Click to share on Facebook (Opens in new window) LUKE LITTLER is aiming to show there's just a fin margin between success and failure. Darts' world champ is joining fellow big names of sport like Tony Bellew, Steve Davis and Barry Hearn for an angling event to be shown on ITV4. Sign up for Scottish Sun newsletter Sign up 3 Luke Littler will hope to improve on his debut in last year's event Credit: Getty 3 Ex-boxer will also be competing in a 32-strong line-up But the Nuke, 18, came BOTTOM on his debut in the Target Sports Star Fishing Championship last year. That's despite the keen angler sharing a snap of a sizable catch he made at the competition in Warwickshire. The Warrington whizkid teamed up in 2024 with former Ally Pally kings Adrian Lewis and Rob Cross, plus Target Darts boss Garry Plummer. Now he'll be back at the Tunnel Barn Fishery on July 29 alongside ex-world cruiserweight boxing champ Bellew, snooker's six-time Crucible king Davis, promoter Hearn and a string of other stars - from both sides of the microphone. The 32-strong line-up also includes Lewis, Cross and James Wade from darts, as well as Derek Redmond, Gail Emms, George Groves, Johnny Fisher, Andy Goldstein, Hayley Turner and Gary Newbon. Littler hopes to show Big Fish has a more meaty meaning than just being his favourite checkout at the oche. And he also hopes to bounce back from England's World Cup embarrassment. The Nuke and Luke Humphries went into the pairs tournament as the world's top two players and the last two Ally Pally kings. 3 Luke Littler has impressed fans after taking up a new sport Credit: Instagram @lukethenukelittler BEST ONLINE CASINOS - TOP SITES IN THE UK But they began to flounder from the start and fans had plenty to carp about afterwards. Welshman Gerwyn Price, who suffered disappointment in the final against Northern Ireland, described the duo as "rubbish" and appeared to suggest they lacked "camaraderie". Gerwyn Price runs rule over Luke Littler and Luke Humphries' England's World Cup of Darts flop At least Littler won't be under the same type of pressure when he contests the angling competition, which raises five-figure sums for charity. Organisers have stressed their 13th annual event is "not open to the public". But a two-hour highlights package will be on ITV4 at a date to be confirmed.

Watch the moment SECOND Love Island couple sneak off for a steamy night in the Hideaway hours before tense recoupling
IN tonight's instalment of Love Island, a second couple headed to the Hideaway for a steamy night together. One stunning girl and one hunky boy were seen kissing in the villa before sneaking off for a steamy night in the Hideaway hours before a very tense recoupling. Advertisement 4 Conor and Emily shared a tender moment on the terrace Credit: ITV 4 They were seen smooching before saying they wanted to go to the hideaway together Credit: ITV 4 They soon hopped into bed with one another Credit: ITV Emily Moran, 24, a new bombshell, and Conor Phillips, 25, were seen smooching on the terrace. The smitten couple were seen kissing and cuddling before they made a quick decision. Making a joint decision to get a little more privacy, the pair decided they'd head to the Hideaway for the night. Emily Moran is one of bombshells who entered the villa on day five alongside Yasmin Pettet and Malisha Jordan. Advertisement Meanwhile, Conor is an OG boy and is 25 years of age from Ireland. From Limerick in Ireland, Conor plays for Ireland's Rugby 7s. As the pair entered the hideaway, Conor exclaimed: "This will do." The pair were then seen passionately snogging in bed. Advertisement Viewers at home were quick to react to the steamy scenes, with many taking to X. "Feels so weird watching people kiss without seeing what else happens in the day, swear Conor and emily only just met and haven't even spoke," said one person. Why Love Island USA Is the Reality TV Upgrade We Needed: Drama, Fun, and a Fresh New Vibe A second then said: "as much as I love Toni, I fear Connor and Emily are really cute together." While a third fumed: "I don't like the hideaway being open all the time." Advertisement And a fourth said: "Emily is pretty, but I genuinely don't get why they have to go to the hideaway after 3 days." This comes after we revealed last week that air hostess Helena, 29, and semi-pro footballer Harry, 30, spent the night together after mere days in the villa. After just three days in the villa, and shacked up with different people at the time, Helena and Harry decided to spend the night with one another in the cosy nook. Helena told Harry that they would go to bed as normal before sneaking out and away from the people they were in couples with. Advertisement They did just this, with Helena tapping Harry on his foot before they made a quick exit and got cosy together in the hideaway. Before the scenes aired last week, a source told The Sun: 'This is the fastest sleepover in the Hideaway in Love Island's twelve series history - and what a gorgeous pair to do so. 'In the past, producers had to invite Islanders to use the breakout bedroom which meant the love nest was generally not used until couples became more established. 'But producers have changed the rules of the breakout bedroom so it can be used at any time, without an invite. Advertisement 'It means Helena and Harry could take advantage of the 'no invite needed' and explore their connection. 'The scenes will play out later this week, but bosses are unlikely to show anything too naughty, as is the show's usual approach.'

Forgotten Coronation Street storyline set to revived as fans guess shocking paternity twist
Fans disagreed over whether the twist could be possible A FORGOTTEN Coronation Street storyline could be revived as fans 'suss out' a shock paternity twist. Kit Green (Jacob Roberts) has become a major presence on the cobbles since arriving last year. Sign up for the Entertainment newsletter Sign up 4 Coronation Street fans have predicted another paternity twist for Kit Green Credit: ITV 4 He's already believed to be Brody's biological father Credit: ITV 4 Fans have now turned their theories to Betsy Swain Credit: ITV Viewers have already suspected he is the biological father of troublesome Brody Michaelis (Ryan Mulvey). Writing online, fans have speculated another shock paternity twist for Kit - and it could tie into a "forgotten" mystery. One person penned on Reddit: "The DNA test hasn't been taken yet but I think Kit has already been confirmed to be the father of Brody. "Was he missing tonight bc he was taking the test? "How long will he have to wait for the results?" The online user then turned their attention to Betsy Swain (Sydney Martin) - the daughter of Kit's police colleague Lisa Swain (Vicky Myers). They added: "Betsy's father/ the donor was brought up tonight. I know he was used as a lie, but it got me thinking. "Betsy is likely 17 now, so maybe in around a year, she'll want to learn more about him. "He's probably just a stranger, but if he were someone on the street, who could it be? "Kit would probably be the most likely guess, but he would've been 13/14 when Becky got pregnant. Coronation Street reveals dark secret about dodgy cop Kit Green "Also, that would potentially make Brody her half- brother." Another fan disagreed, writing: "I don't think a 13/14 year old would be allowed to donate sperm so Kit being Betsy's dad seems highly unlikely." A third shared: "Steve or David are more likely than Kit." While a fourth remarked: "Why are people so obsessed with who Betsy's father is? He's just a sperm donor most likely a randomer wanting to earn some money like Lisa said." Betsy is the biological daughter of Lisa's late wife, Becky Swain - who died in 2021. History of the Coronation Street set By Jake Penkethman, TV Reporter 1960-1968 - Whilst the Coronation Street set remained on Quay Street for 53 years, it actually had three separate studio sites. The first was an entirely indoor wooden set which was used for the first eight years of filming. This encompassed a replica of the Street built entirely indoors. The set was known to be awkward for actors to use and the houses brought to three quarter scale. 1968-1982 - In 1968, the addition of an outdoor set was created to adjoin the existing indoor set which was still used for filming right up until 1982. The set was used only when required with many of the show's cast reportedly hating it and describing it as 'the coldest place on Earth'. 1982-2013 - A brand new set was officially constructed in 1982 and was almost built fully to scale but still only permitted for one car to drive down the cobbled street. The house were purpose-built using reclaimed Salford brick in order to give it the most authentic feel possible. During these years, some of the show's buildings were adapted to allow for both interior and exterior filming at the same time. These locations included Elliott's Butchers, Barlow's Buys, Prima Doner and Webster's Autos. The final scenes to be recorded on this site occurred in December 2013. By early 2014, it began operating as a tourist attraction for around two years before ultimately being demolished and re-purposed in 2017. 2014-present - In early 2014, the show's set moved to the TV hub of the North - MediaCityUK in nearby Salford Quays. It is now located a stone's throw from major TV studio Dock 10 as well as the BBC's base in the North - home to Blue Peter, Newsround, BBC Breakfast and BBC Sport. The new set was even bigger and built to 9/10 the scale of a real street and allowed for two card to be travelling down the road at opposite sides for the very first time. The site has even undergone major expansions during its 10 years. Just four years after opening in 2018, a brand new set extension was unveiled which introduced viewers to Victoria Gardens for the first time in its history. The Weatherfield North tram stop also became visible as did a series of shops which became used as part of product placement advertising deals. Brands to have been seen on the Street so far include a Co-Op, a Costa Coffee and a branch of Hay's Travel. Four years later in 2022, another brand new set was unveiled, this time being the heavily mentioned Weatherfield Precinct. It became the first time in 62 years that the area had ever been seen on screens. It fearued a variety of shop fronts, a playground and a number of small flats which have begun to house more and more residents on the street in recent months. Since arriving in Coronation Street, she had a short-lived bond with reformed bully Mason Radcliffe (Luca Toolan). Although this ended in tragedy when Mason was killed off at the start of the year. Betsy has also adjusted to life with her mum's new partner, Carla Connor (Alison King). Coronation Street airs on ITV1 and ITVX.
