Harry's Girl's Super Part in 'Tacky' TV Drama
There have been rumours that Prince Harry and girlfriend Cressida Bonas might be tying the knot, but the couple are facing embarrassment after footage showing the 24-year-old starring in a tacky TV show has emerged.
Cressida had a cameo role in the 2009 ITV2 show 'Trinity', which her half sister Isabella Calthorpe had a leading role in.
Wearing a skimpy Superman cheerleader costume, Cressida is seen taking part in a cheer routine and offering sexual favours to win student council votes.
The then 20-year-old Cressida appears for two minutes in the fourth episode of the programme, which was based on the fictional Trinity College and axed after one series.
Cressida's mother Lady Mary-Gaye Curzon was an 'It Girl' in the 60s

AIRBNB IN NORTH KOREA
When I first arrived in North Korea in 2008, my guide told me that in the near future it may be possible for tourists to lodge with a North Korean family during their stay. I had to wait years before this sort of North Korean Airbnb came into existence so I’m thrilled when they finally tell me that I could do it. During my stay, I’ll be a guest at the residence of a local fisherman’s family in the village of Jung Pyong Ri, in Myongchon county, situated in the North Hamgyong province. With white sandy beaches, the remote village doesn’t exist on any map. This beautiful portrayal of rural life provides the North Korean government a flattering image to capitalize on, showing tourists this pillar of the country’s economy.
After 5 trips to North Korea, I’m always a tad suspicious when my guides tell me something is amazing. They regularly oversell events I should attend or places I should visit. In the past, I was brought to a fish farm without fish and a host of abandoned factories. Hopefully, this time will be different and Jung Pyong Yi will live up to its hype.
My journey there gives me a great opportunity to view the countryside, as it requires a several-hour bus ride to reach. The roads on the east coast are very muddy and filled with potholes that workers try their best to fix. I see an electric fence lining the beach as an attempt to stall possible Japanese invasion.
The poverty in these rural villages is palpable. From the comfy seat in my bus, I see old, dilapidated houses with roofs ready to collapse. Only huge murals of the smiling Kim Il Sung bring color to these bleak landscapes. My guide informs me that most tourists do not journey this far into the countryside, and that I may be the first European to ever visit this area. The bus continues on, accelerating every time it passes through a village, aggressively forcing other motorists to make way for the bus. There is a disparaging difference between the attitudes of the

Surfing photos by Brian Bielmann - 27 Jun 2011
Mandatory Credit: Photo by Brian Bielmann/Solent News / Rex Features ( 1377944m )
Wet And Wild Photographer Captures Surfers In Action
This stunning collection of photos captures some of the world's elite surfers in breathtaking locations.
The awe-inspiring shots were taken at beaches ranging from well-known wave havens to secret spots kept closely guarded secrets by the sport's top stars.
Photographer Brian Bielmann has spent more than 30 years travelling to far flung corners of the world in search of the perfect photo.
The most dramatic image shows the moment a surfer is almost decapitated as a jet ski flies past his head and misses him by just inches.
It was taken in Tahiti, where the waves are so big the only way to ride them is to be towed into them by jet ski.
World-renowned surfer Raimana van Bastolaer asked his friend Reef McIntosh to tow him into the wave.
However, it was the first time Reef had ever tried to do a ski pull and when the tow rope was released the wave started to pull the jet ski over the lip.
Brian said: "Reef jumped off the ski and as Raimana rode through the tube of the wave, the ski got sucked over his head, missing him by inches.
"Raimana made the wave although he was nearly decapitated. Reef got sucked over with the wave and slammed into the water.
"The ski was destroyed but thankfully everyone was ok."
Brian's favourite shot was also taken in Tahiti, in Teahupoo, where some of the world's biggest waves break.
Brain said: "This photo was taken when the waves were huge. The surfer CJ Hobgood somehow managed to ride this incredible wave.
"I've never seen anything like it. It was a beautiful moment and when he landed it he was standing perfectly in the barrel.
"I consider this the most beautiful wave I have ever shot with a surfer on it."

AIRBNB IN NORTH KOREA
When I first arrived in North Korea in 2008, my guide told me that in the near future it may be possible for tourists to lodge with a North Korean family during their stay. I had to wait years before this sort of North Korean Airbnb came into existence so I’m thrilled when they finally tell me that I could do it. During my stay, I’ll be a guest at the residence of a local fisherman’s family in the village of Jung Pyong Ri, in Myongchon county, situated in the North Hamgyong province. With white sandy beaches, the remote village doesn’t exist on any map. This beautiful portrayal of rural life provides the North Korean government a flattering image to capitalize on, showing tourists this pillar of the country’s economy.
After 5 trips to North Korea, I’m always a tad suspicious when my guides tell me something is amazing. They regularly oversell events I should attend or places I should visit. In the past, I was brought to a fish farm without fish and a host of abandoned factories. Hopefully, this time will be different and Jung Pyong Yi will live up to its hype.
My journey there gives me a great opportunity to view the countryside, as it requires a several-hour bus ride to reach. The roads on the east coast are very muddy and filled with potholes that workers try their best to fix. I see an electric fence lining the beach as an attempt to stall possible Japanese invasion.
The poverty in these rural villages is palpable. From the comfy seat in my bus, I see old, dilapidated houses with roofs ready to collapse. Only huge murals of the smiling Kim Il Sung bring color to these bleak landscapes. My guide informs me that most tourists do not journey this far into the countryside, and that I may be the first European to ever visit this area.

AIRBNB IN NORTH KOREA
When I first arrived in North Korea in 2008, my guide told me that in the near future it may be possible for tourists to lodge with a North Korean family during their stay. I had to wait years before this sort of North Korean Airbnb came into existence so I’m thrilled when they finally tell me that I could do it. During my stay, I’ll be a guest at the residence of a local fisherman’s family in the village of Jung Pyong Ri, in Myongchon county, situated in the North Hamgyong province. With white sandy beaches, the remote village doesn’t exist on any map. This beautiful portrayal of rural life provides the North Korean government a flattering image to capitalize on, showing tourists this pillar of the country’s economy.
After 5 trips to North Korea, I’m always a tad suspicious when my guides tell me something is amazing. They regularly oversell events I should attend or places I should visit. In the past, I was brought to a fish farm without fish and a host of abandoned factories. Hopefully, this time will be different and Jung Pyong Yi will live up to its hype.
My journey there gives me a great opportunity to view the countryside, as it requires a several-hour bus ride to reach. The roads on the east coast are very muddy and filled with potholes that workers try their best to fix. I see an electric fence lining the beach as an attempt to stall possible Japanese invasion.
The poverty in these rural villages is palpable. From the comfy seat in my bus, I see old, dilapidated houses with roofs ready to collapse. Only huge murals of the smiling Kim Il Sung bring color to these bleak landscapes. My guide informs me that most tourists do not journey this far into the countryside, and that I may be the first European to ever visit this area. The bus continues on, accelerating every time it passes through a village, aggressively forcing other motorists to make way for the bus. There is a disparaging difference between the attitudes of the
