5 d. ago Big Star: The Nick Skelton Story review – story of showjumping’s comeback king spares the horses

Documentary charting the British Olympian’s career including his return from breaking his neck is for equestrian fans only due to tight-lipped interviewsIt’s one hell of a comeback. In 2000, champion showjumper Nick Skelton broke his neck in a bad fall; two years later, he was back on a horse and out of retirement. He went on to win Olympic gold twice, first in London in 2012, then aged 58 at Rio in 2016 (with a replacement hip), becoming the oldest British winner of an individual Olympic gold medal in more than 100 years. Skelton (and his horse Big Star) finally retired in 2017; his story is told in this solid but largely unrevealing documentary, flawed by tight-lipped interviews, no one rocking the boat.Skelton was born in Warwickshire, the son of a chemist. He rode his first pony aged 18 months (“we did everything together”) and after parting ways with school at 15, he went to work for tough guy horse owner and trainer Ted Edgar (“a bastard” according to one friend). Talented and...

2 w. ago ‘I struggled with the lifestyle’: former teen prodigy Amanda Anisimova on her career

As she returns to the French Open, where she broke through in a run to the 2019 semis, the American explains why she stepped away from the sportProfessional tennis players are often led to believe that taking time off is fatal. In such an intense, competitive individual sport where greatness is determined though fine margins, the pressure to keep on moving is eternal.

In the depths of her depression, when the intensity of the tennis circuit had become unbearable and her mind was screaming out for change, the 23-year-old opted for the solution of a complete break from the sport two years ago.

3 w. ago Sauna fiends, space dogs and Jesus Christ Superstar: it’s the 10 best Eurovision songs of 2025!

From an Estonian rap-dance celebrating Italian cliches to a Serbian power ballad sung by a karate-champ philologist, there’s something for everyone at this year’s Eurovision Song ContestWhat would Eurovision be without sexually explicit songs? Australia’s Milkshake Man by Go-Jo is quite self-explanatory; the standout is Finland’s Erika Vikman with Ich Komme (“I am coming” in German). Set to a four-on-the-floor beat and Eurodance instrumental, the track bursts with unrestrained hands-in-the-air energy. Vikman sings of pleasure, ecstasy and a state of trance with a vigour reminiscent of Norway’s 2023 entry Queen of the Kings, by Alessandra. Vikman hails from a family of Finnish tango musicians – her mother and sister are both active in the genre – and she herself embraced it early in her career. Still, back in 2020, her breakout hit was another sex-positive, disco-inspired anthem: Cicciolina, which celebrates the boldness and self-determination of the Hungarian-born porn star Ilona St...
