OPRAH WINFREY

THE chat show queen, right, stole the show at this week’s Golden Globes with her rousing speech about female empowermen­t and now she is seriously being talked about as a possible contender for the 2020 presidenti­al race. Oprah vs The Donald? Bring. It. On.

WILL AND GRACE

THE comedy pair and their pals Karen and Jack returned to TV last Friday after 11 years away. Two episodes in, Will is still handsome, Grace is still neurotic, Jack is still sarcastic and Karen is still drunk. It is like they never went away. Nostalgia never looked so good.

MARKS AND SPENCER

THE store got a massive boost this week after Meghan Markle wore a £45 black jumper with bell sleeves from the high street giant for a royal visit to a radio station in Brixton. The top sold out in a matter of hours.

REUSABLE DRINKING CUPS

ARGOS says sales have surged five-fold after plans for a 25p latte levy tax on disposable coffee cups were mooted.

CANDICE BROWN

THE Bake Off queen sadly failed to rise to the occasion when Dancing on Ice returned to our screens last weekend. It means she’ll be in tomorrow’s skate off, although we have yet to see who she’ll be going up against.

PRICEY MOISTURISE­RS

TOBY YOUNG

THE controvers­ial journalist this week stepped down from the board of a new university regulator, saying he had become a ‘distractio­n’ from its ‘vital work’. He had previously had to apologise for comments he made in the past about working class students and gay people.

CAULIFLOWE­R STEAKS

IT wasn’t all good news for M&S this week, the store was ridiculed for selling sliced cauliflowe­r, in plastic packaging with a lemon and herb garnish, for twice the price of a regular cauliflowe­r.
