Dozens of attendees at the four-day Truck Festival in Steventon reported symptoms consistent with food poisoning, allegedly linked to the Yorky Yorkshire pudding stall. Festival organisers removed the vendor within 90 minutes of receiving reports and notified Vale of White Horse District Council, which is investigating with the food business, the UK Health Security Agency and the trader’s local authority. Some attendees reported severe illness, including one woman who was taken to Oxford’s John Radcliffe Hospital for tests.

Jeremy Clarkson joked that British Airways had created a “serious problem” by putting only four cans of his Hawkstone lager on a flight to Brindisi, two of which he had already taken. The airline has begun serving the British barley-based beer, adding to a series of distribution deals for Clarkson’s brand, which is also sold through major UK retailers and pubs. Clarkson is holidaying in Italy with his partner Lisa Hogan.

Jeremy Clarkson's Diddly Squat Farm Shop in Oxfordshire has warned visitors that the site is likely to be very busy, with limited parking, long queues and the possibility that popular products may sell out.

Clarkson, Hammond and May moved to Amazon Prime Video after Clarkson's BBC contract ended, concluding their on-screen partnership with The Grand Tour special One for the Road in 2024.

Thames Valley Police officers have been awarded a 3.5% pay rise by the government, but the Home Office will fund only 1% of the increase. Police and Crime Commissioner Matthew Barber said the force would need to cover most of the cost from its own budget, putting pressure on resources and potentially affecting other services. He welcomed the pay award but urged the government to provide sufficient funding for police forces to meet its commitments.
