Queen starts global beacon lighting ceremony

Published

on

Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth has officially lit the Platinum Jubilee Beacon to mark a truly remarkable 70 years on the throne

The beacon lighting follows a day of pomp and ceremony, with the Queen putting on a brave face after suffering from mobility issues.

Queen Elizabeth has confirmed she will not be attending the upcoming Jubilee service at St Paul’s Cathedral, pulling out last minute after suffering discomfort.

In a statement, Buckingham Palace says the decision was made ‘with great reluctance’, after considering both the journey to the cathedral AND activity required.

The Palace says the onset of discomfort followed Thursday’s Birthday Parade event, with Prince Charles representing his mother at the ceremony instead.

But the monarch had vowed to light the beacon, and that is exactly what she did.

Taking great care as she walked out onto the grass of Windsor Castle, she is seen using a cane for support.

This particular event is an important tradition for special royal occasions, including jubilees, weddings and coronations.

Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth has previously had a beacon lighting for her Silver, Gold and Diamond Jubilees, and her 90th birthday in 2016.

Why Australia is becoming the new home of the Hollywood blockbuster

Published

on

Australia’s multimillion-dollar campaign to attract Hollywood productions to its shores appears to be paying off.

The allure of Australia lies not only in its picturesque locations but also in its competitive financial incentives.

The government offers generous rebates and tax breaks to international productions, making it an attractive proposition for filmmakers looking to maximise their budgets.

Despite the recent intake of Hollywood productions down under such as ‘The Fall Guy’ and ‘Furiosa: A Mad Max Saga’, Aussie independents are still finding the space to carve their own creative path.

Rob Fantozzi joined the program to discuss the latest in Hollywood, and showcased his own upcoming project – ‘Omerta‘. #featured

U.S. home prices surge 47%

American home prices are rising at faster pace now than in the last 20-years.

A recent analysis reveals a jaw dropping surge in the cost of American homes.

Since the start of 2020, U.S. home prices have surged 47% easily outstripping the gains seen in recent decades.

On top of that, home price growth so far this decade is on the verge of surpassing all the growth seen in the 2000s.

Many experts believe this decade’s housing market frenzy was ignited by a perfect storm — the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic triggering an unprecedented rush among buyers.

Tom Hutchens, the Executive Vice President of Production at Angel Oak Mortgage Solutions joins Veronica Dudo to discuss.
