The Rolling Stones have kicked off their first tour without bandmate Charlie Watts - who died in August aged 80 - with a touching tribute to him at the start of their concert.
Four screens above the stage beamed a video montage of drummer Watts to the 50,000 fans in St Louis, Missouri before the band started their No Filter Tour.

And here’s the tribute followed by the band performing their opening song Street Fighting Man:
Steve Jordan has stepped in as touring drummer for the band and made his official debut at a smaller, private show ahead of the main concert, where Mick Jagger spoke about how poignant it was for them to be performing without Watts.
“This is our first tour in 59 years that we’ve done without our lovely Charlie Watts,” Jagger said to the crowd. “We all miss Charlie so much. We miss him as a band. We miss him as friends, on and off the stage. We’ve got so many memories of Charlie. I’m sure some of you that have seen us before have got memories of Charlie as well. I hope you’ll remember him like we do. We’d like to dedicate this show to Charlie.”

Let's face it. We have all heard the safety talk at the start of a flight.
But what you may not have heard is this honest airline safety video.
Be warned, there is some language that is not safe around children or the workplace.
This video really opened our eyes and made us think twice about a few of the safety recommendations.
We couldn't believe how brutally honest the video was!
Now if you didn't already realise, this is NOT a real airline safety announcement.
So, whilst we are at it, here are some examples of REAL Airline Safety Videos.
Starting off with an Aussie Icon, Qantas
Which we had no idea stood for Queensland And Northern Territory Aerial Services.
You're Welcome!
And lastly, here's a USA Delta Airlines Safety Video which closely resembles the style of the Honest Safety Video.

Just when you didn’t think there could be any more twists and turns to 2020’s global hit Tiger King, Netflix has announced a sequel.
Netflix promises that Tiger King 2 will bring “more madness and mayhem” when it premieres on November 17, with the trailer saying “we’ve only scratched the surface”.
Check it out here:
Clearly they haven't revealed much about the sequel, but with Joe Exotic now in prison for the attempted murder of Big Cat Rescue founder Carole Baskin along with 17 convictions for animal abuse, it'll be interesting to see just who will feature. Joe is likely to be back, given it wouldn't be Tiger King without the Tiger King himself. But we're not sure about Carole Baskin, Jeff Lowe, Tim Stark and Doc Antle.
Joe has insisted he's not guilty and even tried to get a pardon from former President Donald Trump (it failed, but he managed to get his 22 year sentence reduced). But it sounds like there's a whole other story to be told:
All I can say is you all are never going to believe what evidence @JohnPhillips and Amy Hanna have in their possession to expose this all. You think Tiger King was shocking, Tiger King 2 will floor you... pic.twitter.com/pvCeAH2FQW

Netflix says Tiger King attracted 64 million households in the first four weeks after it hit the streaming service in March last year when much of the world was in lockdown due to covid.
And it sure was a rollercoaster!
Looking back, it feels like Tiger King was the perfect series to match the mood of March 2020 — it was like nothing we’d ever seen before, nothing quite made sense, and we didn’t exactly know how it would end https://t.co/fOi2hiGUpn

But somehow, if even for a moment, it felt like we were a little more prepared to endure the madness https://t.co/Egua4D3eaf

And it gave us an excuse to laugh, gasp, and stare in shock at something that wasn’t the news for a second https://t.co/qpU95dYi8C
