First up though is actress Daisy May Cooper whose big year could get a whole lot bigger. The 36-year-old is reportedly in talks with producers about taking over the role of ‘M’ from Judi Dench in a forthcoming James Bond film.

Known for her comedic roles, it is hoped that Daisy could bring a humorous touch to a rebooted 007 franchise.

Our next ‘hot’ is GMB’s Susanna Reid who is celebrating her time as a staple of British TV by marking 20 years on breakfast television.

To mark the big day, we take a look back at the best times the 52-year-old held high-profile figures to account in her attempt to have questions answered that the public wanted to hear.

Our final ‘hot’ today is Love Island’s Tanya Manhenga who took part in the recent winter series. We’re highlighting Tanya today as she has revealed her intentions to go back to the University of Salford and complete her biomedical science degree.

Good on you, Tanya!

Moving onto our ‘not’ list today and first up is Kim Kardashian. Her European ‘soccer mom’ tour has seen her take the kids to watch matches at Arsenal and Paris St Germain - but on both those occasions, the home team she was supporting failed to get the win.

Social media has been quick to remind us of the Kardashian curse in light of this as we look at other celebrities who have been stuck with similar labels.

Our next ‘not’ today is Sir Keir Starmer who has been labelled as a ‘hypocrite’ by former Tory leader Sir Iain Duncan Smith. This is because Starmer blocked Government plans to relax tax rules on pensions for the wealthy, despite the Labour leader himself previously benefitting from a generous pensions arrangement.

And finally, our ‘not’ list today is completed by Donald Trump who has said he is set to be arrested today (Tuesday, March 22) over an alleged hush-money payment to adult film star Stormy Daniels.

If charged, the former US president could be in handcuffs very soon and he has reportedly even asked friends if he should ‘smile for the camera’ if the arrest is televised…
