Channel 4 Fined

CHANNEL 4 was yesterday hit with a £1MILLION fine for the You Say We Pay rip-off on Richard and Judy.
And telly watchdog Ofcom slapped an extra £500,000 fine on the channel for misleading viewers on Noel Edmonds’s hit Deal Or No Deal.
TV chiefs last night announced they will hand over £600,000 to charity — meaning they will pay out a whopping £2.1million.
Channel 4 was also ordered to broadcast the watchdog’s rulings three times.
Ofcom blasted the channel for “widespread and systematic deception” on the premium-rate quizzes — axed in August.
It said the dodgy contests pulled in £25.24million for Channel 4.
On the You Say We Pay quiz, phone lines — which cost around £1 — closed just after 5.35pm.
But a shortlist of finalists was drawn up at around 5.20pm while viewers were still being asked to ring in.
Ofcom said: “Viewers who called on the basis that they had a fair and equal chance of winning in fact had no chance.”
It said the con stretched over 975 episodes, going back to November 26, 2001.
The watchdog accepted Channel 4 did not mean to mislead — but said the case showed a “substantial breakdown in the fundamental relationship of trust” with viewers


X Factor Probe

ITV bosses were rocked last night after Ofcom demanded all their information on the disputed X Factor final voting.
Thousands of complaints were made about the phone vote system after hot favourite Rhydian Roberts was beaten by outsider Leon Jackson on Saturday.
Viewers and many Sun readers claim the phone poll was a fix. More than 2,400 angry fans complained to the TV watchdog about the vote and demanded an inquiry.

They claim that when they tried to vote for Rhydian they constantly got an engaged tone.
The Sun’s own poll showed Rhydian, 25, was the runaway winner with 14,982 votes while Leon, 18, scooped only 5,535.
Yesterday gutted Rhydian broke his silence and blamed his defeat on a technical fault.
He said: “It’s obvious there was a technical fault on the night, and it might have affected all three competitors. I was disappointed. I shed a tear.” ITV say Scot Leon won fair and square.
Ofcom’s demand for information was revealed in a letter to Culture Secretary James Purnell.
It said it had also asked ITV for the full findings of its Deloitte report into problems with participation-TV on programmes such as Saturday Night Takeaway.
Ofcom chief executive Ed Richards wrote: “The Deloitte review publicly identified seven programmes or series where failures occurred (Soapstar Superstar, Ant and Dec’s Saturday Night Takeaway, Ant and Dec’s Gameshow Marathon, I’m a Celebrity...Get Me Out of Here!, X Factor, Dancing On Ice and The British Comedy Awards).

Wacko Jacko!!

MICHAEL JACKSON goes Christmas shopping looking as if his face is held together with Post-it notes.
The one-time King of Pop resembled a horror movie extra - prompting fresh speculation he’s gone under the knife AGAIN.
Beat It singer Jacko, 49, tried his best to hide his thin white face with dark glasses, a fishing hat and a scarf while out in Las Vegas.
But the former global sex symbol couldn’t conceal the strips of sticky paper plastered around his mouth.
A spokesman for Jackson could not explain the singer’s bizarre appearance while late-night shopping with his three kids, but denied he’d had surgery.
Top UK plastic surgeon Alex Karidis, 45, said: “He looks extremely strange, almost as if he’s cut himself shaving.
“The plasters look really haphazard. It’s very, very odd.
“The only plastic surgery that might remotely require dressings around the lips is laser treatment to get rid of lines and creases.
“But that is really for people over 55 and he’s not old enough. I can’t imagine what other procedure would require plasters like this.”

Lily Allen is having a lil' Allen

POP star LILY ALLEN is all smiles after discovering she is pregnant with her first child, The Sun can reveal.
The 22-year-old singer found she was expecting last month, but has only revealed the news to close family.
She and CHEMICAL BROTHER boyfriend ED SIMONS, 37, are delighted.
A source close to the singer said: “Lily is thrilled to be pregnant and can’t wait to become a mum. She’s a real family person.
“Ed’s very happy. He is really looking after her.”
The Smile singer has been dating Ed - who is 15 years her senior - since September.

They now plan to set up home together.
Lily, whose debut album Alright, Still was the huge hit of last summer, has made no secret of her desire to start a family.
Our source said: “Lily could not be happier.
“It’s the icing on the cake for what has been an incredible 18 months for her. She is looking forward to finishing her new album early next year and releasing it before the birth of her first child.”

Britney is said to be "frantic" at hearing the news.
Jamie-Lynn told the magazine that long-term partner CASEY ALDRIDGE is the father.
She said she was shocked after finding out from a home pregnancy test: "As soon as I found out for sure from the doctor, I took two weeks to myself where I didn't tell anybody.
"Only one of my friends knew because I needed to work out what I would do for myself before I let anyone's opinion affect my decision. Then I told my parents and my friends. I was scared, but I had to do what was right for me."
Jamie-Lynn told her mother LYNNE, who was understandably upset, before Thanksgiving. Lynne reportedly did the magazine interview with her youngest daughter.
Lynne said: "I didn't believe it because Jamie Lynn's always been so conscientious. She's never late for her curfew. I was in shock. I mean, this is my 16-year-old baby."

Amy's Christmas Bender

TROUBLED Amy Winehouse will check in to rehab — after a Christmas blow-out.
The singer, 24, who has a history of cocaine and heroin use, has vowed to get her life back on track in the New Year.
Her team are going ahead with plans to send her on a one-week rehab and detox treatment course in Israel, as revealed in The Sun last week. But the Back To Black star wants a festive season binge first — including a party at her new flat in Bow, East London.
A pal said Amy — nominated for six Grammies — is desperate to shine at the glittering Los Angeles awards ceremony on February 10.
He revealed: “Amy has agreed she will sort her life out in the New Year.
“She wants to give the performance of her life in LA. But she’s going to throw a party over Christmas — which will probably be a messy affair.” Amy — whose husband Blake, 25, is in jail awaiting trial for assault — suffered a drug overdose in August and briefly attended a rehab centre in Essex.

Jonathan Creek star Alan Davies bit into a homeless man's EAR after going on a massive booze bender.
Paul McElfatrick howled in agony and was bleeding after curly-haired Davies sank his teeth in for 13 seconds.
Jobless Geordie Paul, 40, said he called out to Davies by the name of his sleuth character in the BBC1 series.
He recalled: "I thought he was going to whisper something but his face darkened and he almost spat the words, 'My name's Alan. You know my name - Alan. What's my name? It's Alan'.

"Then he suddenly went for my left ear. It was incredibly painful. I shrieked and my eyes were watering. He hung on and drew blood. I still can't sleep on that side of my head nearly a week later."
Other revellers broke up the 2am fracas outside the posh Groucho Club in London's West End.

Missing Canoeist Found After 5 Years

A man who has been missing for 5 years, presumed dead, handed himself into police yesterday simply stating that he believed he was a missing person. John Darwin, 57, disappeared in March 2002 as he took his kayak out for a paddle in the North Sea. After a 16-hour search for him was called off after no trace was found, only for his waterproof jacket, a paddle, and eventually the kayak, broken into three pieces, washed up to shore. These discoveries led both the police and John’s family to believe that he had suffered a fatal accident at sea.

Hollywood beauty Nicole Kidman wants David Beckham in her new movie – playing a hunky builder.
Flame-haired Nicole has been raving about Becks to director Baz Lurhmann and insists he would be ideal for the epic outback love saga called Australia.

And the Moulin Rouge film-maker agreed after seeing the 32-year-old football ace’s biceps and rippling muscles during his trip to Oz with LA Galaxy.

Aussie Lurhmann, 45, reckons Becks has massive star quality and would be perfect as a worker from the outback.

A source in Oz said: “Nicole let slip that she thought David would be perfect to play a labourer in the film, and Baz agrees.

“Apparently Baz thinks David would be great in Australia.

He has all the perfect qualities for the role and is so humble, he would be brilliant.

“At the moment, there are a lot of things up in the air regarding the film as it has already taken nine months to get this far.”

The £65million flick, which will also feature X-Men star Hugh Jackman, 39, has already been in production for nine months and is due to begin shooting again in March.

“It’s only a small role, but everyone is hoping David will consider doing it,” added the source.

SINGER Morrissey has sparked a racism row by saying he won’t live in Britain because of the “immigration explosion”.
The Smiths legend, who hails from Manchester but lives in Rome, claimed: “England is a memory now.”
And he moaned that Londoners speak with “every other accent under the sun” except British.
Asked if he would consider moving back here, Morrissey said: “Britain’s a terribly negative place. And it hammers people down and it pulls you back and prevents you.
“Also with the issue of immigration, it’s very difficult because, although I don’t have anything against people from other countries, the higher the influx into England the more the British identity disappears. So the price is enormous.
“If you travel to Germany, it’s still absolutely Germany. If you travel to Sweden, it still has a Swedish identity. But travel to England and you have no idea where you are.”

Further quizzed on mass immigration, he added: “You have to be sensible about everything in life. You can’t say ‘Everybody come into my house, sit on the bed, have what you like, do what you like’. It wouldn’t work.”

Amy Winehouse Scraps Tour

TROUBLED Amy Winehouse last night sensationally axed the rest of her UK Tour claiming she couldn’t carry on without her jailbird husband.
The broken star issued a statement yesterday afternoon after crisis talks with her management and tour bosses in London.
The meeting ended with Amy “collapsing in floods of tears” demanding her remaining tour dates were scrapped because she couldn’t cope without husband Blake Fielder-Civil.
In a statement Amy, 24, said: “I can’t give it my all onstage without my Blake. I’m so sorry but I don’t want to do the shows half-heartedly; I love singing. My husband is everything to me and without him it’s just not the same.”
A source inside the crisis talks told The Sun: “Amy was in Brighton this morning preparing at the Hilton for her gig in Bournemouth.
“She suddenly left for London for a meeting yesterday afternoon and decided she couldn’t go on.
“She was in a terrible state in London. She looked awful and had been in floods of tears. She was fragile and weak like an old woman. It was depressing to watch. When the tour was cancelled it was like a weight lifted off her shoulders immediately.”

Oasis Beef up Security

OASIS have been given a police guard at Abbey Road Studios after a crazed stalker turned up and threatened to chin NOEL GALLAGHER.
The Manc rock lords are holed up in the famous North London complex, working day and night on their seventh album.
But the recording was interrupted last week when a crazed Greek fan showed up demanding to speak to guitarist Noel about song lyrics on the new album that he claimed the Oasis rocker had stolen.
Police were called to sort the headcase out after he threatened staff but he fled just before they arrived. A source at the studio said: “The guy showed up in a proper rage.
“He meant business and was clearly off his rocker.
“He claimed that he had written all this material that Noel had nicked off him for the new album.
“The fella was fuming and was threatening to beat Noel up over it all.
“He was cursing at staff and being really threatening so the cops were called in.
“He tried to force his way into the studio but couldn’t get through. He heard the police were coming and turned on his heels.
“By the time the bobbies got down there he had gone.
“They had a word with the band and pulled Noel aside to tell him to be careful.
“They asked for a listen to the new album too but were politely thanked for their help and shown the door.”
Following the incident, Oasis have strengthened security at the studio and will have a police presence for the rest of the album’s recording.

Lily's Health Scare

POP star LILY ALLEN has revealed the REAL reason for her new fitness regime — she has a heart murmur.
Pals became worried for the 22-year-old singer when she shed nearly 1½stone and dropped from Size 12 to 8 in just six weeks.
But the Smile artist says the weight fell off when she scrambled to the gym after a medic discovered the murmur.
Lily said: “I found out about three months ago. I have been asthmatic all my life but this was really quite scary.
“When they asked me how much exercise I did, I had to be honest and say hardly any.
“Now I make sure I work out three times a week. And I don’t hold back — it’s a hardcore routine in the gym.”
A murmur — a soft rushing sound heard with a stethoscope — is often harmless. But it can also indicate a hole in the heart or a valve problem.
Keeping fit tones heart muscles and helps the organ to cope with the condition. Lily said: “I used to love nothing more than sitting in front of the telly with two packets of Ginger Nuts and two bags of milk bottle sweets. I’d devour the lot.
“But this heart thing has made me cut back on that kind of c**p.”
She told a magazine: “I haven’t done this because I want to be some skinny minnie.
“I just like being more toned. It has made me really happy. I should give up smoking but haven’t quite managed that yet.”

Cowell to Take Over the World

SIMON COWELL is putting together the biggest TV show in history — The World’s Got Talent.
To be broadcast next autumn, with ANT & DEC at the helm, it will put 25 talent show winners from around the globe in a head-to-head battle so one can be crowned the most talented person on the planet.
Mr Nasty reckons the show could land an audience of more than 200million — with the winner walking away with a million dollar purse.
Last night the pop mogul told me: “We have been thinking about doing this for a long time.
“The planet has been crying out for a world talent competition.”
Simon and lardy toff judge PIERS MORGAN will be on a panel of five offering their thoughts on the weird and the wacky brought to London for the telly spectacle.
The fat tum of the opera, PAUL POTTS, will compete for the UK in the champion of champions show.
Is there anyone who can compete with the former mobile phone salesman’s talent?

Nazi Dad

A CRUEL father kept his wife and five children caged for two years in a “concentration camp” he built to resemble Nazi hell-hole Auschwitz.
Anatoly Titsky, 47, spent months erecting the “maximum security correctional facility” deep in a forest.

He dug a deep trench around the camp and surrounded it with a 20ft-high barbed wire fence.
And 20 ferocious guard dogs patrolled day and night, trained to kill any of the family if they tried to escape.

Son Sasha, 17, and his sisters Vera, 14, Polina, 13, Valentina, 12, and Kristina, five, perched for hours on tree stumps while Titsky lectured them on MORALITY.
Armed police raided the camp near the southern Russian town of Tashtagol, after a terrified mushroom picker stumbled across it.
As they closed in the sadistic dad ordered the family to flee into the forest where they were found hours later.
Under questioning Titsky — who had been banned from looking after his kids — finally admitted he “had been a little strict” on them.
The mushroom picker said yesterday: “When I happened across the prison it was like a concentration camp from Nazi Germany.
“There were red flags marking the limits and psychotic dogs foaming at the mouth while children stared out from behind the barbed wire.”
Inside, hardened cops were sickened by the nightmare the children had endured.
Officer Dmitry Altunin yesterday said: “The air was thick with the stench of rotting garbage and there was a pile of rags the kids used to keep themselves warm in winter.


Sienna Lays Down the Law

A source said: “Rhys persuaded Sienna to call Kate the night before DAVINIA TAYLOR’s 30th birthday party to see if she needed any help.
“Rhys has felt a huge hole in his life where his friends used to be. He’s accepted it would be impossible for him to be mates with Sienna’s ex JUDE LAW now.
“But he thought if he could swing Kate around he would be able to get friends like SADIE FROST and Davinia’s husband DAVE GARDNER back onside.
“He told Sienna it would really help if she called Kate. She refused at first, saying it would be a really unnatural thing to do.

England Failures

It was another embarrassing night for English football as we crashed out of the Euro qualifiers with a 3 – 2 defeat to Croatia. England’s blushes were already spared once by Israel when they beat Russia at the weekend, which meant all we needed was a draw to secure a place in the tournament next summer. However, Steve Mclaren’s team, or ex –team if reports are to be believed, went 2 nil down within the first 20 minutes, only to claw it back in the second half with a lucky penalty and great finish by lanky Peter Crouch, to then see them concede the lead once more.

With such individual talent in the England line up, qualification for major tournaments such just be a mere formality, but as per usual our superstars with their super salaries failed to perform, leaving qualification to the last minute which back fired dramatically last night. With Mclaren almost certainly being shown the door, bets are already being taken for his predecessor, whose first job will to ensure England qualify for the 2010 World Cup.

Spice Girls' charity single bombs

HEADLINES IS THE KIDS CHARITY'S WORST-SELLING SINGLE
Cover your other eye, Pudsey! The Spice Girls' comeback single looks like being the worst-selling Children In Need song EVER.
Headlines (Friendship Never Ends) - the first track the five Spices have recorded together since the band split up nine years ago - has scraped into the midweek charts at No.10.
All the proceeds from the sale of the single go to charity. Sadly it has only sold a measly 5,278 copies, despite being available digitally last week and in the shops from Sunday
And it's being roundly trounced by Leona Lewis, Shayne Ward and Kylie.

Despite the Spice Girls' much hyped return - including a sensational performance for the Victoria's Secrets fashion show in LA last week - the band have failed to whip up any enthusiasm for their new track.
An insider reveals: "There has been a tremendous buzz about the Spice return, but sales for both their Greatest Hits album and the single have not matched up to the hype.
"The fact that Headlines is for charity should have helped boost its performance but that hasn't happened."
The single was deemed so dire by Radio 1 bosses that it was relegated to the C-list and got hardly any airplay.
