Here's your first proper look at Princess Diana’s wedding dress from The Crown series 4, created by costume designer Amy Roberts pic.twitter.com/EcFBMcaqWs
— Netflix UK & Ireland (@NetflixUK) October 4, 2020
Without access to the original patterns, Amy collaborated with David Emmanuel. He was enormously helpful, talking the design team through the detail of many of the original drawings to help them create this gown for Emma Corrin

Four months and five fittings later, with three people spending a collective 600 hours working, they had a dress. It's made of 95 metres of fabric and 100 metres of lace, with a train that is approximately 30 metres long
— Netflix UK & Ireland (@NetflixUK) October 4, 2020
The Nottingham based team who made the lace on the Emmanuel's original dress also made the lace for this one. Sadly the man who worked on the real-life dress passed away, but it's his son who worked on the one you'll see in The Crown

7 years ago I worked at a small company of about 15 people. I sent an email to all my co-workers one Friday, inviting them on a weekend hike. Only one person came, a guy from the web dev team that I'd hardley spoken to.
Today is our 6th wedding anniversary. We're going hiking.

When I broke story about @Argos_Online axing its catalogue, I was contacted by someone who explained her sister-in-law was severely autistic.
"Throughout the last 2 decades, the Argos catalogues have been her only source of entertainment and comfort." 1/3— Harry Wallop (@hwallop) October 2, 2020
"Zina looks and plays with the catalogue all day/every day, using up one a week as she rips the pages off. She also takes it with her everywhere e.g. hospital and respite".
She was distraught that her supply of catalogues was going to end.
Was there any way I could help? 2/3— Harry Wallop (@hwallop) October 2, 2020
So I emailed someone senior at @Argos_Online.
This week, this happened…
Yes, that's over a 1,000 Argos catalogues and a very happy Zina. 3/3 pic.twitter.com/IsQUETALHs— Harry Wallop (@hwallop) October 2, 2020
People will die because the government lacks the expertise to add rows on excel but remember any second wave is your fault
— James Felton (@JimMFelton) October 5, 2020
When I first heard that cases were missing I thought “can’t be an Excel problem, the rows run out at 1,048,576 which is bigger than even total cases”.
I never thought they’d have a case per COLUMN. Unbelievable. And yes: Excel columns end at 16,384 aka “XFD”. https://t.co/To9b4qIuzD

I saw that VLOOKUP was trending and was prepared to be amused. Turns out I'm horrified.
