EastEnders has been snubbed at the BAFTA Television Awards 2020, after the nominees for the event were revealed on Thursday.

The show failed to be shortlisted in the Soap & Continued Drama category, as Holby City, Coronation Street, Emmerdale, and Casualty took the top spots.

EastEnders, which recently celebrated its 35th anniversary, won the award for best soap at the BAFTA Television Awards last year.

Sixteen-year-old American tennis player Coco Gauff has given an emotional speech at a Black Lives Matter protest saying she "demands change now".

Gauff, one of the sport's rising stars, urged people to vote and speak out against racism, adding: "If you are choosing silence, you are choosing the side of the oppressor."

Protests have been held across the United States and globally since the death of George Floyd in Minneapolis.

Gauff has repeatedly spoken out since.

Gareth Bale does not want to come back to the Premier League and is likely to finish his career at Real Madrid, his agent Jonathan Barnett has said.

The 30-year-old has been linked with a return to England with his relationship with Madrid boss Zinedine Zidane understood to be strained.

Bale almost moved to China last summer but the deal fell through.

"He has a very nice lifestyle. I don't see why he doesn't see his career out at Madrid probably," Barnett said.

I was doing some web surfing when I came across a cheese bike. Cheese and bikes are two of my favourite things. They balance each other out. Eat some cheese, ride a bike to burn a few calories, eat more cheese, ride more bike … you get the idea. However, this integration of cheese and bikes struck me as interesting so I thought I would share.

Steve Priest, the bassist and co-founder of glam rock band Sweet, has died at the age of 72.

He was known for his playful humour and outrageous costumes when Sweet played hits like Blockbuster and Little Willy on Top of the Pops in the 1970s.

Priest also sang the memorable lines "there's a girl in the corner that no-one ignores, 'cos she thinks she's the passionate one," in Ballroom Blitz.

His death was confirmed by the band, who shared a statement from his family.

Bandmate Andy Scott paid tribute, describing Priest as the best bass player he had ever played with. "From that moment in the summer of 1970 when we set off on our musical odyssey the world opened up and the roller coaster ride started."

"I am in pieces right now," added the guitarist, who is now the sole surviving member of Sweet's classic line-up.

"His wife Maureen and I have kept in contact and though his health was failing I never envisaged this moment. Never. My thoughts are with his family."
