Jaw-dropping true life story of how four children survived 40 days in Amazon jungle to hit Netflix --[Reported by Umva mag]

WHEN four children survived 40 days alone in the Amazon jungle after a horror plane crash, it made headlines across the world. And now I can reveal the incredible survival of four siblings – aged 13, nine and four plus their one-year-old baby brother – is being looked at for a new blockbuster Netflix documentary.

The children were travelling with their mother from the Amazonian village of Araracuara to the town of San José del Guaviare when the single-engine Cessna plane crashed on May 1, nose-diving into dense undergrowth.

ROYLES REUNITED

Ricky says: “That fills me with joy, actually. I’m made up with that.”

BB MARC ALREADY IN TUNE

BIG Brother’s 16 new housemates are making themselves at home following Sunday night’s live launch.

After 11 of the group were immediately put at risk of eviction, yesterday evening they began playing for immunity in a game of strategy and deception.

Big Brother’s Marcello is a wannabe rapper and music producer[/caption]

But I can reveal one of the newcomers is already well-versed in double-dealing after hiding a showbiz past.

Marcello, 34, from East London, told hosts AJ Odudu and Will Best that he was a youth mentor but instead he is a wannabe rapper and music producer.

And he’s not too bad at it – the self-described “connoisseur of rap” co-wrote Junior Andre’s debut single Only One and has even released music of his own.

I’m sure Marcello won’t miss the chance to spit some bars in the house.

Big Brother continues tonight at 9pm on ITV2 and ITVX.


HOLLYOAKS’ time jump plotline has left even its cast confused.

Newcomer Sherrie Hewson’s character Martha Blake survived the E4 soap’s mass cull.

She told Johnny Seifert’s Secure The Insecure Podcast: “ It’s very confusing. I just go, what’s the next scene?”


CLAUDIA: IT’S IN MY JEANS . . .

CLAUDIA WINKLEMAN has admitted she wants to look like “a male mature French student”.

The Strictly Come Dancing host has revealed she bases her looks on an imaginary figure she calls Jean.

Speaking to Vernon Kay on Radio 2’s Tracks Of My Years this week, Claudia said: “Jean in Lyon, with just a few bells or an epaulette, something a bit piratey.

“Sometimes on Strictly, they’re like, ‘You can’t dress as Jean, you have to be somebody else’.”

“The only way I can get out of my uniform is I have to dress as somebody. This series because I just want to wear kaftans, it was Demis Roussos and Kris Jenner.”

I happen to think she’s more Jean Claud Van Glam.
