But his retirement plans are now in “disarray” and “ruined” cos he’s going to have to find an additional £208.33 per month?
He has £2-4 million in savings/investments but claims he is not “cash-rich” and his house was his only “pension”
Seriously @Telegraph, where do you find these people?🤣🤣🙄

If anyone is watching the Last Night of the Proms and has never been to the Albert Hall to a Prom then try one next year. I’d recommend promenading in the gallery right at the top.

Magical to see Brian May and Roger Taylor channelling Logan Roy from Succession 🤣performing Bohemian Rhapsody at the Last Bight of the Proms.
Sam Oladeinde was perfect choice to sing and nicely restrained performance. I recommend catching it on iPlayer.

So incredulity aside, what about the list itself?
