Dame Margaret Taylor Rutherford, DBE (11 May 1892 – 22 May 1972) was an English actress of stage, television and film. She came to prominence following World War II in the film adaptations of Noël Coward's Blithe Spirit, and Oscar Wilde's The Importance of Being Earnest. She won an Academy Award and a Golden Globe Award for her role as the Duchess of Brighton in The V.I.P.s (1963). In the early 1960s she starred as Agatha Christie's character Miss Marple in a series of four George Pollock films. She was appointed an Officer of the Order of the British Empire (OBE) in 1961 and a Dame Commander (DBE) in 1967.

Poundworld was a British value variety store that sold most of its items for £1. The chain was founded in 1974 by Yorkshire-based father-and-son team Chris Edwards Sr. and Chris Edwards Jr. In contrast to many high street retailers, Poundworld maintained strong sales and growth during the global recession that started in 2007.
Suffering intense competition from the addition of multi-price products, combined with difficulties arising from the weak pound, Poundworld entered administration in June 2018. Closing sales began in stores late that month. In July 2018, Poundworld confirmed that all stores were to close by 10 August 2018 after rescue talks with original founder Christopher Edwards failed.

US Secretary of State Mike Pompeo has condemned China's plan to impose a new security law in Hong Kong, calling it a "death knell" for the city's freedoms.
China is seeking to pass a law that would ban "treason, secession, sedition and subversion" in Hong Kong.
Critics say the law would strip Hong Kong of the rights it currently enjoys, that are not seen in mainland China.
Mr Pompeo said the decision to bypass Hong Kong's lawmakers ignores "the will of the people".
Mr Pompeo's intervention is likely to infuriate the Chinese government, whose relations with the US have been strained recently by disputes over trade and the coronavirus pandemic.
Brazil's Supreme Court has released a video showing President Jair Bolsonaro expressing frustration that he was unable to change security officials and vowing to protect his family.
The video forms part of an investigation into allegations that the president attempted to replace senior members of the federal police.
Mr Bolsonaro denies any wrongdoing.
The growing political crisis comes amid concerns that Brazil could be the next epicentre of the coronavirus pandemic.
On Friday the country recorded 1,001 new deaths, bringing its total to 21,048, and it has the second highest number of cases in the world with more than 330,000.
Coronation Street celebrated Samia Longchambon's 20 years on the soap this week with a sweet throwback video that showed her first ever scene.
The actress, 37, has played Maria Connor since 2000 and was left blushing at the resurfaced clip shared on Thursday.
The video showed Samia alongside actor Alan Halsall who played her love interest, Tyrone, on the ITV1 show.
Former England manager Hope Powell is concerned about the negative effect that the coronavirus pandemic is having on women's sport.
While the men's Premier League and Championship are pushing on with the testing programme that they hope will allow them to resume their domestic seasons, the Women's Super League is set to be brought to a premature end.
In rugby union, there are no plans yet for a resumption of the women's game even though there is a broad - if complicated - strategy for the Premiership.
In cricket, England's men's team have started training in the hope of playing their Test series against West Indies in July but their female counterparts are not sure when their international programme will resume.
The disparity in finance for the men's and women's game may make the divergence understandable, but Powell accepts the concern about female sport losing some of the momentum it has gained in recent years.

A senior official in Department of Fire and Emergency Services (DFES) said it would be a "once-in-a-decade" storm.
"Normally our storms come from the south west and this will come from the north west," DFES acting assistant commissioner Jon Broomhall told journalists.
