We nortmally associate the sight of a one-armed bandit with a chance to pocket some extra dosh. Not so in this baffling puzzle, as a one-limb crim looks to make off with his swag bag. It’s chaos in the streets in this latest puzzle, and while a gang of thieves haul away their cash from the bank vault, only a single perpetrator has truly committed one-armed robbery. Can you spot the one-armed bandit in this bank-heist blowout? In a sea...

Thirty is the age we are at our most adventurous, according to a study. Researchers who polled 2,000 UK adults pinpointed the point when we're desperate to let our hair down and experience high-octane sports and new cultures. Upon reaching their third decade, those polled admitted they’re 'champing at the bit' to get away from the daily grind, having established themselves in their careers and social circles. The findings emerged after 59 per cent of the population said they tend...

It’s said to be a place where you can do whatever you want, no matter what time of day it is. A city of dreams sandwiched amongst the scorching, endless Nevada desert. But what is the ‘big-pull’ for a place that claims to ‘have it all?’ If someone asked you to travel 11 hours for a four night getaway, you’d recoil at the thought. Especially on a 4am start, where you cradle the duvet cover, hoping for another five minutes....

People often ask me for recommendations on where to get the best steak, and I’ll often reply with just three words: “your nearest butcher’s”. Because, let’s be honest, steak is generally best when it’s cooked (properly) at home. A completely subjective experience, everybody likes their steak to be cooked differently – even interpretations of ‘blue’, ‘rare’, ‘medium-rare’, ‘medium’ and ‘well-done’ can differ between restaurants. At home, though, you’re in complete control of the cooking – which isn’t too difficult, following...

Millions of Brits have been involved in "phone-ccidents" - an embarrassing or painful mishap while using their phone. A fifth of adults have walked into someone while trying to multitask on their mobile while another one in five have tripped over. An unlucky one in eight have even ended up hurt or injured, with almost a third claiming to have narrowly avoided disaster while distracted by their devices. Twenty seven of the 2,000 mobile users polled even admitted their phone...

Until recently, Leicester Square’s only redeeming assets were the Heliot at The Hippodrome Casino’s reasonably-priced steaks, or Burger King’s magical soft drinks dispenser – spilling various drinks we know and love but in outlandish, unfamiliar flavours. The rest of the square remained a toxic wasteland of woefully bad restaurants, the dreaded M&M shop and what’s perhaps London’s most overpriced cinema. On the edge of the Radisson Blu Edwardian Hampshire Hotel, Leicester Square Kitchen is the third restaurant from the group...

By Michael McNulty Albert Brooks’ third feature, Lost In America, released in 1985 and co-written with long-time collaborator, Monica Johnson, is an offbeat comedy about Yuppie America, the people who inhabit it and dropping out. Yuppie couple David (Albert Brooks) and Linda Howard (Julie Hagerty) live the complete yuppie lifestyle. Packed away into a glorious suburban castle in California, the only worries the two seem to have are whether they should have bought a house with a tennis court (you...

An American mass shooting expert says hotels are a soft touch for attacks like Vegas due to their lack of security. Professor Adam Winkler of UCLA is a gun law expert and has been cited in landmark Supreme Court cases, including opinions on the Second Amendment, the right to bear arms. And he added that with 320 million guns in the US, such massacres are impossible to stop. At least 50 people have been killed and more than 400 were...
