Victoria's Secret The Tour '23 Is Here — but How Does It Stack Up Against the Original Fashion Show?

The Victoria's Secret Fashion Show is back — but it had a major makeover.

Now branded Victoria's Secret The Tour '23, the streamed event — filmed in Barcelona; Lagos, Nigeria; Bogotá, Colombia; London; and Tokyo — puts a whole new spin on the Victoria's Secret Fashion Show we once knew. Though the fashion event looks pretty much nothing like what it once did, you'll still see some of your favorite models doing what they do best, and you'll still feel the essence of the brand as they celebrate a more diverse group of talent.

As for everything else, let's break it down.

Is Victoria's Secret The Tour '23 Live?

Victoria's Secret The Tour '23 was filmed earlier this year in various cities across the world. The VS 20 collective — a group of artists, designers and filmmakers — was selected in Lagos, Nigeria; Bogotá, Colombia; London; and Tokyo. Segments were filmed in each of these places.

While the models had fittings with the designers in these places, the actual show — or what you would think of as the traditional runway show (without a true runway) — was filmed in Barcelona. A group of models wore pieces from each designers collection, but all of the modeling portions were filmed together in Barcelona, along with an interlude that featured Victoria's Secret pieces that you'd expect in a lingerie fashion show.

All of that's to say none of this is live. It was filmed previously and is currently streaming on Prime Video.

Are There Angel Wings in Victoria's Secret The Tour '23?

The Victoria's Secret Fashion Show was known for its Angels and their wings. Models like Adriana Lima, Gisele Bündchen and Alessandra Ambrosio were some of the most iconic Angels in VS history. They would strut the runway wearing all manor of wings and apparatus — some small, some huge — as a symbol of their status as the elite of the brand.

When Victoria's Secret ditched the fashion show in 2019, it also ditched the Angels , moving away from using the iconography completely in stores and in marketing campaigns.

Though the brand still toys with the concept of being angelic — like with its Heavenly Eau de Parfum with Lima as its face — the Angels are no more. So are there wings in The Tour?

Actually there are.

U.K.-based lingerie designer Michaela Stark raided Victoria's Secret headquarters in Columbus, Ohio, and repurposed some old fashion show pieces into three new looks for the show. Those looks — worn by Jade O'Belle , Ceval Omar and Stark herself — all included wings from years past that the designer fashioned into a modern take on the Angel from the brand's history.

Stark, who often bucks trends, wrote on Instagram that she wanted to "prove that angels can represent ALL women." Stark then took aim at previous comments made by former chief marketing officer at Victoria's Secret, Ed Razek. The former exec caused controversy years ago over his comments about  hiring transgender or curvy models  for the Victoria's Secret Fashion Show and later apologized. He stepped down from his post in August 2019.

What Was the Controversy Surrounding the Victoria's Secret Fashion Show?

Razek's comments in regard to not wanting to hire transgender or curve models for the fashion show were just part of the controversy surrounding the VS Fashion Show and the brand as a whole prior to the rebrand.

In February 2020, Leslie H. Wexner, the longtime chairman and CEO of L Brands, which owns the lingerie giant,  stepped down, following scrutiny  for his business ties with  Jeffrey Epstein .

In August 2019, more than 100 models signed an open petition written to former Victoria's Secret CEO John Mehas by The Model Alliance, which  called upon the lingerie giant to protect its models against sexual misconduct . The group wrote another letter to the CEO alleging a " culture of misogyny and abuse " in February 2020. Mehas stepped down in November 2020 and was  replaced by Martin Waters .

Thus, Victoria's Secret rebranded, dropping the Angels, focusing more on celebrating women and pushing for more diversity and inclusivity in its marketing, branding and clothing options. It launched two new initiatives: the VS Collective and the Victoria's Secret Global Fund for Women's Cancer.

The Victoria's Secret Global Fund for Women's Cancer will donate "at least $5 million annually to examine and address racial and gender inequities and unlock new innovations that improve cancer outcomes for all women," a press release stated in 2021.

The VS Collective promised to work with new brand ambassadors — including Priyanka Chopra and Megan Rapinoe — to "create new associate programs, revolutionary product collections, compelling and inspiring content, and rally support for causes vital to women."

Is There Body Diversity in Victoria's Secret The Tour '23?

A complaint against Victoria's Secret and the fashion show years ago was that it didn't feature enough body diversity, but with the rebrand in recent years that focused on advocating for women and celebrating women.

Between the VS Collective, new campaigns that featured more diversity and a clear push for the brand to be more inclusive , it appeared that the lingerie powerhouse was at a turning point where it would truly be a place where shoppers and fans would see more than just one body type modeling the clothes.

So did that happen with The Tour '23?

There was more body diversity featured than ever before in a Victoria's Secret Fashion Show, with names like Paloma Elsesser and Candice Huffine among the curve models. While too many brands stick to only having one curve model on a runway at a time, Victoria's Secret at least pushed the envelope enough to have several featured — and they weren't covered up. Their curves were celebrated.

Is There a Runway Show in Victoria's Secret The Tour '23?

In a traditional sense, no, there's no runway. The models stomp through what looks to be an abandoned building in Barcelona, surrounded by nature (though the Tokyo set of models come running through the streets).

The setting still provides a place for the clothes to be shown off, but it's not a runway like fans have seen in years past.

The models are also not wearing what they have in years past. They're not wearing lingerie from Victoria's Secret. Instead they're wearing designs from the VS 20, which is all handcrafted pieces made by these artists around the world and created to show off their talents.

That being said, there is a break between the cities where the models wear their VS lingerie and expected blinged-out dresses for a bit of a throwback to the old-school fashion shows — complete with Naomi Campbell strutting to Bree Runway's "That Girl."

Are Any of the Former Angels in Victoria's Secret The Tour '23?

Yes, a few of the Angels have returned, even if they're no longer Angels. Lily Aldridge, Taylor Hill, Adriana Lima and Candice Swanepoel are all back for The Tour.

You'll also see other familiar faces, including Campbell, Gigi Hadid (who also narrates the show), Hailey Bieber , Emily Ratajkowski , Quannah Chasinghorse, Valentina Sampaio, Julia Fox and Lila Moss.

Is There a Musical Performance in Victoria's Secret The Tour '23?

Doja Cat is the headlining performer in this year's show. While in years past, the performers for the show usually take to the runway while the models parade around them, Doja Cat instead performs alone, making for a completely different vibe.

Goyo, a musician from the house of Bogotá, also performs while wearing one of the looks by designer Melissa Valdes.

Past VS Fashion Show performers have included Justin Bieber , The Weeknd , Harry Styles and Taylor Swift .

What's the Final Verdict on Victoria's Secret The Tour '23?

When PEOPLE asked Hill at the event celebrating The Tour '23 in New York City during Fashion Week earlier this month how this show compares to shows past, she answered it very simply.

"They are completely not comparable at all, whatsoever," Hill said. "The overall experience has been really different. I think they're both really great, and I'm so happy I get to experience both of them. I'm just really excited to see their new take on the show in this time."

Lima said much the same — that it's virtually impossible to compare the two formats because they're drastically different. Despite being Victoria's Secret at the core, they are two completely different shows.

"The whole experience is different for everybody," Lima told PEOPLE at the NYFW event. "The fashion show itself is going to be a totally different form — not the usual runway as you think. There will be a runway, there will be a walk, but also fashion designers, poets and musicians will be celebrated."

The Tour '23 is pretty much nothing like the old Victoria's Secret Fashion Show — and some viewers are going to like that and some viewers are going to hate that. The brand addressed the diversity issue that so many complained about but also completely changed the essence of the show. While it's commendable to champion women and spotlight creatives from around the world — especially with their handcrafted creations that are so beautifully done — it feels like there's a disconnect to highlight clothes that you aren't actually selling, when that is usually the point of a fashion show.

Highlights come in the form of the models doing what they do best — showing off the wares and having fun while doing so. Hadid's narration throughout is perhaps the best part of the entire show. She brings an element of humor and authenticity to her role as narrator, making it feel like your best friend is sitting in the room with you telling you what's coming next.

Victoria's Secret The Tour '23 is currently streaming on Prime Video . You can also shop some of the looks inspired by the show , including everybody's favorite, the Victoria's Secret Fashion Show robe .

The Victoria's Secret Fashion Show Is Being Reinvented—Here's What We Know

Now dubbed the Victoria's Secret World Tour, the revamped event will showcase the design talent of 20 global creatives.

The Victoria's Secret Fashion Show is making a comeback—and expect it to be bigger, better, and more inclusive than ever.

Today, the lingerie company announced the Victoria's Secret World Tour, a reimagining of their annual iconic fashion show that last aired in 2018. The live event, which will be streamed and made into a feature-length documentary, plans to showcase the talents of 20 designers from across the globe alongside custom Victoria's Secret creations.

"This film is the ultimate expression of the Victoria’s Secret brand transformation," Raúl Martinez, the company's EVP and head creative director, said in a press release shared with BAZAAR . "It will be driven by fashion, glamour and entertainment with a nod to beloved iconography from the past but in a bold, redefined way. We are so honored to offer our platform and have it explored through the lens and artistry of global creatives who celebrate the individuality of women’s stories and perspectives."

Ahead, everything to know about the Victoria's Secret World Tour.

The film will drop in September.

The Victoria's Secret World Tour documentary will reportedly premiere this September. The press release notes that the show "will be streamed internationally and culminate in a live fashion event this fall."

Designers, artists, dancers, and musicians from across the world will showcase their own collections on the runway.

The documentary will follow the behind-the-scenes process of 20 global creatives from the cities of Bogotá, Lagos, London, and Tokyo (dubbed the VS20) as they create four fashion collections. These four collections will be staged on the runway alongside the brand's custom designs.

From Bogotá are fashion designer Melissa Valdes, filmmaker Cristina Sánchez Salamanca, painter Lorena Torres, choreographer Piscis, and musician Goyo. Representing Lagos are fashion designer Bubu Ogisi, filmmaker Korty, artist Eloghosa Osunde, artist Ashley Okoli, and musician and photographer Wavy the Creator. The London creatives include designer Supriya Lele, filmmaker Margot Bowman, artist and writer Ebun Sodipo, lingerie designer Michaela Stark, and artist Phoebe Collings. Finally, the Tokyo VS20 members are comprised of designer Jenny Fax, filmmaker Umi Ishihara, painter Kaito Itsuki, dancer Aoi Yamada, and artist Kom-I.

Will the original "angels" make a comeback?

It's unclear for now if supermodels and former Victoria's Secret runway mainstays such as Bella and Gigi Hadid, Adriana Lima, Candice Swanepoel, and more would make cameos for the new documentary and live spectacle. Considering the brand has gone in a new direction as of late, it's safe to say the new "collective" will feature mostly new faces.

As an associate editor at HarpersBAZAAR.com, Chelsey keeps a finger on the pulse on all things celeb news. She also writes on social movements, connecting with activists leading the fight on workers' rights, climate justice, and more. Offline, she’s probably spending too much time on TikTok, rewatching Emma (the 2020 version, of course), or buying yet another corset.

Victoria's Secret is known for its sultry silhouettes and bombshell looks, but the brand was most notably known for its annual fashion show. Catapulting the careers of models like Adriana Lima , Candice Swanepoel, and Tyra Banks, and cementing legends like Heidi Klum and Naomi Campbell as supermodels, the Victoria's Secret Angel became iconic.

Although the brand canceled the annual fashion show , it is introducing itself with a fresh new format that takes viewers on a journey of more than just runway walks and elaborate wings. It's also ditched the singular beauty ideals of the "Angel" and launched the VS Collective , a group of diverse women who represent the brand, including Adut Akech, Priyanka Chopra, Megan Rapinoe, and Naomi Osaka, to name a few.

Weekend Money: Benefits and pensions going up - here's how much and exactly when

Pensions and benefits are going up between Saturday and Monday. Read this and more in Weekend Money, and we'll be back with live Money updates on Monday. Leave a comment on anything we've covered below.

Sunday 7 April 2024 10:45, UK

Ask a question or make a comment

Here's a round up of the changes...

• Child benefit

The amount people can earn before child benefit is reduced or taken away is increasing.

At the moment, people lose 1% of the benefit for every £100 they earn over £50,000. At £60,000, the benefit is cut completely.

From this month, the benefit won't be reduced until one parent earns more than £60,000. And it will only go completely at £80,000.

Benefits and tax credits that are linked to inflation will rise by 6.7% this month.

That was the level CPI in September.

These benefits have to go up 6.7% by law:

• Personal independence payment (PIP)
• Disability living allowance
• Attendance allowance
• Incapacity benefit
• Severe disablement allowance
• Industrial injuries benefit
• Carer's allowance
• Additional State Pension
• Guardian's allowance

The government also pledged the same raise for benefits including:

• Universal Credit
• Contributory employment and support allowance
• Contributory jobseeker's allowance
• Statutory maternity/paternity pay and maternity allowance
• Income-based jobseeker's allowance (JSA)
• Income-related employment and support allowance (ESA)
• Income support
• Working tax credit
• Child tax credit

From April universal credit rates are:

• Single and under 25 - £311.68
• Single and 25 or over - £393.45
• Live with partner, both under 25 - £489.23 (for you both)
• Live with partner, either of you are 25 or over £617.60 (for you both)

The state pension will rise by 8.5% this month.

The "new" state pension, for those reaching state pension age on or after 6 April 2016, will rise to £221.20 a week - up from £203.85.

The "basic" state pension, for those who took it out prior to April 2016, is rising to £169.50 a week.

Both groups may get more or less depending on individual circumstances. 

When do the changes take effect?

Housing benefit and council tax reduction rates changed at the start of this month.

Tax credits changes typically apply at the start of the new tax year - so Saturday (6 April).

Means-tested benefits like universal credit, income support or pension credit are changed from Monday (8 April).

Pensions also rise from Monday.

By Bhvishya Patel, Money team

We're all familiar with the stats - nearly half (42%) of all marriages in the UK end in divorce.

But unless you've been through it, you'll probably be surprised at how much getting divorced costs. 

It varies depending on where you live and how you do it, but according to MoneyHelper a couple could be looking at between £1,300 and £2,600 for an uncontested divorce and between £10,000 and £30,000 if it is a contested case - for example, you've failed to reach an agreement and the case is taken to court.

The cost can climb even higher if the case drags on.

Family court backlogs mean a quick resolution is almost unheard of - with Ministry of Justice figures showing the average divorce takes more than a year to complete.

So what do you need to know?

This table shows some of the main costs to consider when getting a divorce.

Can you do it for less?

Although the process had become a lot more straightforward with the introduction of no-fault divorces, some solicitors still take advantage, says Desmond O'Donnell, a partner in the family team at the legal firm Thomson Snell & Passmore. 

"I say to my clients, you are more than capable of applying for a divorce without a solicitor - the court fee is £593. You get other solicitors who say 'let me do it for you' because they can charge the client for that and then costs go up to £600-800." Desmond O'Donnell

He says it is better to settle a separation outside court because taking a case to court "racks up costs".

"You get some solicitor firms who see it as a business rather than what is best for their client," he says. 

"If you settle a case quickly you don't make money, so they almost encourage their client to go to court."

He recommends looking at other avenues such as mediation, collaborative law, arbitration and the process of "one couple, one lawyer" to avoid being "at the mercy of the court".

Less lawyer routes

With mediation, through which a couple resolves issues with a mediator, "emails are not flying back and forth" between solicitors and matters can be resolved "within hours", Mr O'Donnell says.

Another way of handling a separation is arbitration - a private system in which spouses choose an arbitrator to hear their case in their chambers.

"It's having a judge who has the time to give your case the attention it needs and because it is much quicker, there is less correspondence so it is going to be cheaper," Mr O'Donnell says.

'Collaborative' lawyers

He also draws attention to collaborative law, which involves specially trained solicitors meeting for roundtable meetings for the benefit of the family.

"As there is more realism brought into it and we're not trying to bluff each other, very often we agree on things outside the traditional court system more quickly and cheaply than the traditional system," he says.

Sharing a solicitor?

Opting for "one couple, one lawyer", with the solicitor acting for both spouses, can cost £3,000 to £4,000 plus VAT - so "much cheaper", Mr O'Donnell says.

But this only works if the couple are on amicable terms.

Finances are not sorted with divorce

A common misconception is that divorce and finances are dealt with in the same processes - they are not, says Zoe Rose, senior associate at Hedges Law.

"I often say to clients you probably won't need a lawyer to help you with the divorce application because if you can do online shopping you can do the relevant online application with the court directly." Zoe Rose

But, she says, with discussions about finances and children people "should be spending some money getting some decent legal advice".

"You do the simple paperwork and come to me for the strategic stuff about what happens with assets and what happens with your children and what that looks like," she says.

How you communicate with your lawyer is key

How people communicate with lawyers is important in keeping costs down, according to Ms Rose.

"If you send your solicitor two emails and then automatically ring them, your solicitor won't have had time to look at your email and won't give you the nuanced advice you want," she says.

"Whereas if you send them a couple of emails and then book a slot later, what you will get back out will be much better."

Here are Ms Rose's other tips to keep fees down:  

• Only speak to your lawyer about legal advice as you are charged for the time you spend with them;
• Avoid asking the same questions more than once;
• Keep ongoing correspondence to a minimum and if you want to ask if an email has been received, your solicitor's assistant is the best person to answer this.

'Train wreck break-up prompted me to set up amicable divorce service'

In the course of writing this article, we came across Kate Daly, a relationship counsellor and the co-founder of Amicable. 

The company first offers a 15-minute free advice consultation and then follows this up by helping couples decide how to divide their money and property, or with arrangements for their children.

Once they have a financial agreement, this is drafted into a consent order and sent to court for a judge to review. 

It means no lawyers are needed and, the theory goes, results in an amicable divorce.

"I came up with the idea for this business off the back of my own awful train wreck divorce - it was really terrible," she says.

"It cost huge amounts of money and it created untold emotional damage, even now it still plays out in my family. A horrible divorce is like the gift that keeps on giving - it just stalks you through all life events.

"When I went through mine, I thought 'what have I done wrong to create this awful situation where we are both spending so much money and ended up in such a bad place?'"

Most couples could do a simple divorce - that is, one with no finances to sort out - themselves, she says, but it is "trickier" to do a consent order and "definitely worth getting legal advice at that point".

"We're on a mission to change the way society thinks about relationships ending and to get to a point where we can say love can end and that doesn't have to be a fight, and it doesn't have to be a failure," she says.

Four topics elicited the most consternation in our mailbox this week: pensioners being drawn into tax, the price of pints, banned adverts and Royal Mail cutbacks. 

On Tuesday we revealed that 650,000 extra pensioners will have to pay income tax for the first time following an inflation-linked 8.5% rise in the state pension which will take many with additional income over the (currently frozen) tax threshold of £12,570.

I have a service pension which I've been living off for 10 years and this month qualify for my state pension. Couldn't believe it when my service pension was nearly £200 less due to tax!! They give with one and take with another!! Brilliant!! I guess I should have expected it!! Ian, Fareham

Thanks to the tax bracket not being raised in line with inflation, I am now paying tax on my pension... Pointless the Tories keeping on about triple lock as I get an increase in one hand then take it out with the other. Mr c k

Others asked if the move meant pensioners were being effectively "taxed twice"...

Why should pensioners have to pay tax on personal/private pensions when they have already paid tax on it during their working lives. Surely the government is getting double payment of taxes? Sarah

This isn't quite right - as pension income is only taxed when it's withdrawn, ie when you retire. 

Making pension contributions during your working life is tax free within certain limits . 

Away from pensions, on Wednesday we reported that a Nationwide advert starring Dominic West would be banned following 282 complaints. 

The watchdog found it was misleading consumers into thinking the building society – unlike its rivals – would not be closing its branches.

Some of our readers have seen first-hand closures, in contrast to the advert's message...

Our Nationwide branch closed after they stated it would remain open for at least two years. Goldie30

Good! I am glad that the Nationwide adverts have been banned as they did, indeed, close last year the Blaby, Leicestershire branch of their bank. So the adverts always left a very bitter taste in the mouth. Well done ASA for calling Nationwide out on this. Alan Henry

Looking at the breakdown of the cost of a pint we posted on Thursday...

...we had an interesting question from Pete on non-alcoholic drinks...

Why do alcohol-free drinks cost so much in pubs and restaurants? Prices are often the same and yet tax is lower. Petethepilot

Although the same duty doesn't apply on alcohol-free drinks, they can be more expensive to manufacture.

Many breweries make their standard beer then "remove" the alcohol after - adding an extra step to an already expensive process, using the same ingredients and methods etc. 

Historically, it's also been brewed in much smaller quantities (naturally driving price up), although as its popularity continues to rise we may see that change. There's also development and marketing costs.

Another reader, John, said... 

Having just returned from a holiday in mainland Spain - I find myself asking why the cost of a large draft local beer (pint) - even in many restaurants - is only about €3. Which is the equivalent of about £2.56. Yet another example of rip-off Britain!!! JohnMette

On Wednesday, Royal Mail revealed it may slash  1,000 jobs as part of cutbacks including reducing second-class deliveries to three days a week, prompting comments like this...

So now we all pay for 1st class post and get 2nd class service.  Liyzlg

National insurance has been cut, for the second time this year, from 10% to 8% on employee earnings between £12,570 and £50,270 from today.

The change, announced by the chancellor in his March budget, impacts around 27 million payroll employees across the UK.

The cut is worth almost £250 to someone earning £25,000 a year and almost £750 for those earning £50,000

Use our tool below for a rough guide to what tax changes can be expected for most people, as there are other variables not included which might affect how much tax you pay including being in receipt of the blind person's allowance or the marriage allowance. It also assumes you are not self-employed and are under pension age...

There are also national insurance cuts for the self-employed. This includes the scrapping of Class 2 contributions, as well as a reduction of the rate of Class 4 contributions from 9% to 6% for the £12,570 to £50,270 earnings bracket.

These will impact nearly two million self-employed people, according to the Treasury.

While many campaigners welcomed the national insurance announcement last month, they pointed out that the tax burden remains at record high levels for Britons - thanks in part to the threshold at which people start paying income tax being frozen, rather than rising with inflation.

Big Issue founder Lord Bird says the government has "lost the plot" over proposed legislation which critics say criminalises homelessness .

He called the Criminal Justice Bill a "waste of time" that fails to stop people living and dying on the streets of the UK.

The bill contains provisions to allow police to forcibly move on "nuisance" rough sleepers, with criteria including creating "excessive smell" or "looking like they are intending to sleep on the streets".

"How the hell are you going to enforce this?" Lord Bird said on Sky News.

"You're going to get the old bill [police] or the local security going out their sniffing people? This is just a waste of time."

Lord Bird said it was "human rights abuse to let people live and die on our streets".

"When it's moved onto criminal justice issues, then you've lost the plot."

British Savings Bonds , which were announced in the budget, have gone on sale .

The bonds, issued by the Treasury-backed NS&I, offer a fixed rate for three years - and the rate has been revealed at 4.15%.

This has left experts feeling a little underwhelmed.

Savings Champion  founder Anna Bowes gave us her view: "In essence, this is simply a re-issuance of the NS&I three-year Guaranteed Income and Guaranteed Growth bonds, rather than anything new or British.

"As was reported just after the budget and as is often the case with NS&I products, while the interest rate is not rock bottom it’s mid-table, so is likely to still be utilised, especially for those rolling over old bonds, and those with more than the FSCS limit of £85,000, because of course all cash held with NS&I is guaranteed by HM Treasury.

"NS&I is a trusted institution so will always be popular, but savers can earn quite a lot more if they shop a

Trade groups have warned of higher food prices and empty supermarket shelves because of new post-Brexit border fees being introduced this month.

A maximum charge of £145 will apply on imports of plant and animal products, such as cheese and fish, entering the UK through the Port of Dover and Eurotunnel from 30 April.

The fees are intended to cover the cost of operating new border control posts required after Brexit, and will not apply to goods brought into the UK for personal use, the government said.

But importers warned the new charges could lead to higher prices for consumers.

Senior doctors in England have voted to accept an improved government pay deal, bringing to an end the year-long dispute which had led to strike action.

The British Medical Association (BMA), a trade union which has been representing the consultants, put the offer on pay and conditions to its members, with 83% voting in favour.

The pay deal includes changes to the review body on doctors' and dentists' remuneration (DDRB) and a 2.85% (£3,000) uplift for those who have been senior doctors for four to seven years, said the BMA.

The offer is in addition to the 6% awarded during the DDRB process last summer.

Administrators to The Body Shop are drawing up plans to salvage a future for one of Britain’s best-known high street brands.

Insolvency practitioners at FRP Advisory have outlined proposals to launch a company voluntary arrangement (CVA) that would see The Body Shop entering talks with landlords about rent cuts, as well as other creditors, Sky News has learnt.

According to proposals sent to The Body Shop's creditors on Friday morning, which lay bare the depths of the financial problems inherited by the investor which bought the company less than four months ago, a CVA would "allow the company to be rescued and exit from administration".

This would see it continuing to trade under the ownership of Aurelius, the investment firm which took control of it at the start of the year.

The crisis enveloping Thames Water has deepened after its holding company announced it had been unable to meet a debt repayment.

Kemble Water said it missed an interest payment that was due on Tuesday.

The firm said it had asked its lenders to take no immediate action so as to "provide a stable platform while all options are explored".

The announcement paves the way for a potential restructuring of Thames Water, which serves nearly a quarter of Britain's population.

The UK's largest specialist wine retailer, Majestic, has completed a rescue deal to buy Vagabond from administration.

On Friday, Majestic confirmed it had completed the acquisition of the wine bar chain, which will secure the future of nine Vagabond venues and 171 workers.

The bar firm's "underperforming" site in Canary Wharf has not been bought and will be closed.

Vagabond's two sites at Gatwick Airport are also not included in the deal.

The average UK house price fell by approximately £2,900 month on month in March, according to Halifax.

The typical property value fell by 1%, having risen 0.3% in February.

"That a monthly fall should occur following five consecutive months of growth is not entirely unexpected, particularly in view of the reset the market has been going through since interest rates began to rise sharply in 2022.

"Despite this, house prices have shown surprising resilience in the face of significantly higher borrowing costs."

Prices remain almost £50,000 above pre-pandemic levels, she added.

Nicky Stevenson, managing director at estate agent group Fine & Country, said: "An increasingly busy property market helped to prop up prices on an annual basis at the beginning of spring, but the monthly fall shows there is still some turbulence."

Once an interest rate cut appears on the horizon, demand should "push UK prices 3% higher this year", said Tom Bill, head of UK residential research at estate agent Knight Frank.

British billionaire Joe Lewis has avoided a jail sentence after admitting he orchestrated an insider trading scheme that helped those around him make millions.

The former Tottenham Hotspur owner, who lives in the Bahamas, tipped off his girlfriend, friends, and two of his private pilots with inside information on four publicly-traded companies, which they used to get rich, prosecutors in New York said.

In January, he pleaded guilty to one count of conspiracy to commit securities fraud and two counts of securities fraud, admitting in court he had known he was breaking the law.
