Ramses and the Pharaohs' Gold: We went face-to-face with 3,000-year-old treasure (and I'm still not over it)

Let me paint you a picture. There I was, standing in the shadow of Battersea Power Station – that magnificent brick cathedral of Art Deco industry immortalised by Pink Floyd in their iconic album – about to walk into an exhibition featuring treasures from the time when my beloved Italy was still just a collection of hills with some very confused tribes wandering about.

Moulin Rouge! Il Musical - Rome’s glittering Belle Époque escape

I went to seeMoulin Rouge! Il Musicalat the Sistina Chapiteau in Rome on 1 February 2026 with my dear friend Donatella, and let me tell you, it was pure, unadulterated magic from start to finish.

Blue took over London: Eiffel 65 turned the Electric Ballroom into a 2000s Dance Time Machine

Saturday night at the Electric Ballroom, London didn’t just dance – it time-travelled. Straight back to the late ’90s and early 2000s, glow sticks optional, nostalgia absolutely mandatory. And leading the charge? Eiffel 65, the Italian Eurodance duo who proved that some tunes simply refuse to age. When “Blue (Da Ba Dee)” kicked in, the crowd – overwhelmingly…
