I'm absolutely loving the public-screening-somewhere photos of this World Cup. Here are a few more corkers:

It has come to this. It's "a sneak peek of David Beckham's next collection for H&M" which consists of little more than a large photograph of a bare-chested Becks. "The grooming is strong," we enthuse, adding that we approve of his "relaxed, unkempt stubble". Honestly, I have nothing to say other than that it is almost certainly not aimed at me.
"I'm so excited for the next chapter of my career, coming to a special club like Liverpool," Lallana told liverpoolfc.com. "I'm quite humbled and I just can't wait to get started. Hopefully I can settle in quickly, and I will give it my best throughout the whole time I'm here. I hope I can add something to the team and hopefully we can win trophies while I'm here, because that's why I'm here – for success."
It's now 7.10am in Rio and São Paulo, which means that sometime soon someone actually in Brazil might wake up and do something. Fingers crossed, eh?
