Former Scheels leader honored with North Dakota Rough Rider AwardIT’S not Gavin & Stacey’s fault, but I’d started hating the Christmas special long before it came to screen. A resentment you can probably put down to personal failings and the fact that rolling news, the print media and even the BBC’s main bulletins seemed to be hyping the 90-minute episode’s expectations way beyond a point it could possibly deliver. Without anything else worth watching on Christmas Day, since the last Gavin & Stacey special in 2019, the longing was as understandable as it was damning, I suppose. But for the first half, at least, it seemed like all the pre-publicity had been a dreadful miscalculation. The storyline was going nowhere and everyone, bar James Corden and Ruth Jones , who’ve written themselves the two best parts, seemed to be performing instead of acting, to an annoying degree in the cases of Rob “Bryn” Brydon and Alison “Pam” Steadman . They clearly knew something we didn’t, though. Because, as soon as Smithy and Sonia’s abortive wedding scene kicked in, everything made perfect sense. It was an old-fashioned love story that had momentum, heart, soul, staggeringly good stars, Anna Maxwell Martin and Sheridan Smith, and also the good sense to flag up its own plot holes, on the final chase to Southampton Docks. As I’m sure the whole audience was screaming “Give her a ring,” long before Joanna Page’s Stacey said “I’ll try her on her mobile” and Jason replied “Why didn’t we just call her in the first place?” They would have looked daft, of course, if the show hadn’t delivered the ending the audience craved and deserved. But it gave the people what they wanted, a Smithy and Nessa wedding , and spared them from the one thing that infected other significant parts of the BBC’s Christmas Day TV, preachiness. For there were no gear-crunching references to diversity, as we got in the King’s Speech and EastEnders, nor was there any bleating about the arms trade, as in Doctor Who. For 90 minutes on Christmas Day, TV was a glorious, happy, woke-free zone again. And if you think the BBC will learn from Gavin & Stacey’s triumph and cut the political lectures in 2025? Well, I’d settle back and watch the Christmas special again and again, if I were you.ENVESTNET INC.

Kolkata, Nov 26 (PTI) The West Bengal health department has launched a probe into the supplies of allegedly low-quality and locally made catheters at a high price to several government hospitals, posing a risk to the lives of patients undergoing treatment in these facilities, officials said on Tuesday. Such central venous catheters (CVCs) were allegedly supplied to at least five medical colleges and hospitals in the state, defying allocation of international standard-compliant CVCs, they said.

The distribution company, which has been accused of supplying these catheters to government hospitals, admitted to the fault but placed the blame on its employees. "We started checking stocks some time back and found these locally made CVCs in my hospital store. These catheters are of low quality as compared to those allocated by the state. We have informed the state health department," a senior official of the Calcutta Medical College and Hospital told PTI.

Low-quality catheters were also found in the stores of other hospitals, which indicates "possible involvement of insiders in the scam", a health department official said. The low-quality CVCs were supplied by a distributor in Hatibagan area in the northern part of Kolkata for the last three to four months, he said. "Such kinds of local CVCs are priced around Rs 1,500 but the distributor took Rs 4,177 for each device," the official said. A CVC is a thin and flexible tube that is inserted into a vein to allow for the administration of fluids, blood, and other treatment. It's also clinically called a central line catheter. "An initial probe revealed that the distribution company Prakash Surgical had supplied the low-quality and locally manufactured catheters to several government hospitals instead of the CVCs of the government-designated international company. "All the units will be tested and a proper investigation is on to find out who benefited from these supplies," the health department official said. The distribution company blamed its employees for the supplies of inferior quality catheters. “I was sick for a few months. Some employees of the organisation made this mistake. We are taking back all those units that have gone to the hospitals. It's all about misunderstanding," an official of the distribution company told PTI. According to another state health department official, a complaint was lodged with the police in this connection. Asked about how many patients were affected by the usage of such low-quality CVCs, the official said, "The probe would also try to find that out". According to sources in the health department, some of the staff of the hospitals' equipment receiving department and some local officials of international organisations might be involved in the corruption.

Former Labour and Foreign Employment Minister defends E-8 visa programDo you like stocks? Well, if you do and you are on the lookout for some new investments when the market reopens then read on. Listed below are a couple of top ASX growth stocks that analysts have recently named as buys. Let's see what they are saying about these growing companies this month: ( ) The first ASX growth stock that could be a buy according to analysts is Breville. It designs, develops, markets, and distributes small electrical kitchen appliances in the consumer products industry. As well as the eponymous Breville brand, the company's portfolio includes the Kambrook, Baratza, Sagem and Lelit brands. Analysts at Ord Minnett are positive on the company. Particularly given how they believe that the company is on the brink of a return to form with accelerating sales growth. This is expected to be driven by new products and acquisitions. The broker recently said: Breville has experienced a notable decline in its return on capital over the past five years, but Ord Minnett views FY24 as the cyclic allow for returns. Our projections indicate a rebound as sales growth accelerates and operational leverage improves. This sales growth is expected to stem from improved sales momentum, innovative product development, and recent strategic acquisitions. Ord Minnett currently has an accumulate rating and $38.00 price target on the company's shares. Another ASX growth stock that could be a buy right now according to analysts is Readytech. It is a leading software as a service (SaaS) provider of mission critical software to the tertiary education, government, justice, and enterprise markets. The team at Morgans is bullish on the company. With its shares trading at a deep discount to historic averages despite having strong growth prospects, its analysts believe that the software company is a great example of growth on offer at a reasonable price. They recently said: Its products include student management, payroll and HR solutions, and enterprise resource planning (ERP) to local government and legal case management. RDY's recent organic growth trajectory demonstrates its ability to deliver our forecast 14.5% CAGR EBITDA growth over coming years. Despite this, the company is trading at a ~20% discount to its historic average EBITDA multiple of ~11x, which we believe represents compelling value. Morgans currently has an add rating and $3.74 price target on its shares.

Former the Traitors contestant Charlotte Chilton has told fans that her newborn daughter Penelope is experiencing "tummy issues," just six weeks on from the baby's arrival . Charlotte, 33, recently introduced her baby to the world following her birth last month. The reality TV star - who competed on the BBC show in its second series, which aired earlier this year - has claimed that singer Conor Maynard , 32, is the father of her daughter but Charlotte has alleged that he is not currently involved with the baby, saying that she's parenting alone with the support of her own family and friends. She has kept fans updated on parenthood since Penelope's arrival, including in a post shared on her Instagram Story on Tuesday afternoon. It featured a photo of Charlotte cradling the newborn, who was seen asleep in her arms. Alongside the selfie, Charlotte told her followers that her baby was having "tummy issues," though she didn't provide any further information. She wrote beside a heart emoji in the caption of the post: Penelope has tummy issues which hopefully we can get sorted ... mummy cuddles fix all things." The post comes after Charlotte spoke exclusively to OK! magazine about parenthood recently. Reflecting on her life now , she said in the interview: "It's incredible how it changes your life." Discussing the newborn, she told the outlet: "When I'm not with her, I feel like my arm has been chopped off. It's a huge adjustment, but I'm so in love." After sharing the selfie of herself and Penelope on Tuesday, Charlotte then reflected on being featured in the magazine. She told fans: "I cannot believe I have had a 12 page spread in [OK!]. Thank you endlessly for showcasing my gorgeous daughter. A memory I will have forever." Charlotte had announced Penelope's birth in a post on social media last month. It included a black-and-white photo of the baby's arms. The photo was accompanied by a caption in which Charlotte shared her daughter's name. She wrote: "Princess Penelope has arrived and we have been enjoying our 'Penelope bubble' so much,I am going to be off the radar for a little longer, whilst I enjoy these magical moments with my precious girl!! Thank you to all that have checked in to make sure I am ok!! My heart is full." Charlotte rose to fame earlier this year when she appeared as one of the Faithfuls on the Traitors, telling the Mirror previously that she had wanted to "push her boundaries" by taking part in the show. She made it more than halfway through the series before being banished by her co-stars. Follow Mirro r C elebs on TikTok , Snapchat , Instagram , Twitter , Facebook , YouTube and Threads .
