When you think of 74-year-old British gardener and broadcaster Alan Titchmarsh, who helms the wholesome ITV gardening show Love Your Garden, censorship is probably not the first word that springs to mind. Still, that hasn’t deterred North Korea’s state television Central TV, which has censored a 2010 episode of the BBC gardening programme Alan Titchmarsh's Garden Secrets (which does sound a bit filthy, come to think of it). The reason? His jeans. They blurred out presenter Titchmarsh's trousers, as jeans are seen as a symbol of western imperialism in the secretive state - and are therefore ban...

The first ever edition of London Fashion Week took place in a tent located in a Kensington car park in 1984 - with the newly-formed British Fashion Council hosting a brand new three-day event dedicated to British designers. PR legend Lynne Franks - who founded her own agency at 21 years old - was one of the masterminds behind London Fashion week. “The designers were young, fresh out of art college with huge dreams, they were big talents with very little backing,” Franks tells Euronews culture. New York’s fashion week had been running since 1943, while Milan’s was launched in 1958 and Paris’ in...
