Emily is starring in Rivals as a character called Sarah Stratton, who is known to use her beauty to her advantage.

She previously made her first red carpet return after the birth of her son while attending another screening for Rivals in September.

This time Dr Alistair came with her and posed up next to the blonde beauty with an affectionate arm around her waist.

Emily looked gorgeous in her fur-lined dress, which she paired with matching black heels.

By contrast, her nuclear scientist partner wore a grey tuxedo.

Rivals is set in the fictional county of Rutshire and the plot is said to be packed full of raunchy drama and shady deals among a group of socialites.

The drama was adapted from Dame Jilly Cooper’s best-selling book with the same name.

It will follow the lives of British elite in the 80s who are working in television over the course of eight episodes.

Disney+ bosses have confirmed that the entire show will become available to stream on the platform from Friday, October 18.

The cast includes other A-list actors such as David Tennant, Luke Pasqualino, Danny Dyer, Alex Hassell, Katherine Parkinson, Aidan Turner, Bella Maclean, Nafessa Williams and Victoria Smurfit.

The Sun previously revealed that Emily will strip off in her role as Sarah.

One scene will see Emily bare all as Sarah plays a naked game of tennis.

Labour is drowning in a tide of public disgust but unless the Tories can unite Starmer will win again

NEVER underestimate the stupidity of the Stupid Party.

Having been almost wiped out in the Fourth of July massacre, the Tories have been miraculously offered the chance of rising from the dead.

Some MPs shy away from ­Badenoch and Robert Jenrick’s forthright views on the issues which worry ­voters most[/caption]

Yet here they are, squabbling, plotting and looking a gift horse in the mouth.

Labour has crashed in flames. Freebie-grabbing ministers are leaving old folk to freeze. Jails have been emptied on to our streets.

In just 100 days, Keir Starmer has become the most unpopular new Prime Minister in history.

It’s surely an open goal for an ­Opposition which has learned from 14 years of misrule.

The Tories just need to pull themselves together, pick a decent leader and start selling their wares as a viable party of government.

Not so fast. Forget about pulling victory from the jaws of defeat, this lot have ­forgotten what it means even to stand together and fight.

‘Boris is beguiling’

We are three months into a shambolic battle for the Tory crown, with true-blue party members having to choose between two candidates — Kemi Badenoch and Robert Jenrick.

Badenoch and her “Tell The Truth” ­manifesto is the grassroots darling.

Jenrick preaches to the Tory choir with his promise to ­abandon Europe’s absurd human rights laws.

Yet even as the battle moves into its final stage, headless-chicken MPs are threatening to abstain, spoil their ballot papers or refuse to support whoever is elected.

Some are sulking because pet Remainer Tom Tugendhat has been eliminated.

Others blame dirty tricks for ­turning James Cleverly from cock-of-the-walk into a feather duster.

Still others shy away from ­Badenoch and Jenrick’s forthright views on the issues which worry ­voters most — multiculturalism and immigration.

Worst of all, there is a well-founded assumption the next leader is simply a caretaker until Boris Johnson makes his glorious return as the ­Messiah.

BoJo dismisses the rumour as “less likely than being reincarnated as an olive”.

But the irrepressible ex-PM has admitted his restless ambition in an interview with Sun Political Editor Harry Cole.

The Tories just need to pull themselves together, pick a decent leader and start selling their wares as a viable party of government

Boris’s new book, Unleashed, is the Trump-style bugle call of a political giant brought down by pygmies.

And it could work.

Johnson is a beguiling force of nature who can charm suspicious and even ­hostile voters into giving him a hug.

No Tory could win twice as Mayor of Labour-leaning London without a magical capacity for turning dross into gold.

Only a Casanova of political seducers could win Brexit and leapfrog his rivals into Number 10.

And yet his three-year psychodrama inflicted more damage on the Tory brand than has any other Prime Minister — including Liz Truss, who would never have got the job but for BoJo’s ­meltdown.

His new book is a catalogue of excuses for failure and a charge sheet of treachery against anyone who stood in his way.

And if by some disastrous ­mis- hap he is given a second chance, it will be Groundhog Day all over again. It is thanks to Boris that the Tories now face their biggest obstacle in the shape of Nigel Farage’s fast-growing Reform Party.

Farage fell for BoJo’s bluff and ordered supporters to stand aside for a Tory ­landslide in 2019.

In exchange, Boris pledged to guard Britain’s borders and curb immigration, legal and illegal. As Prime Minister, he failed dismally on both counts.

Immigration is out of control, unstitching the very fabric of British society.

Farage has vowed never to do a deal with the Tories again. Time is already running out. Whoever wins the Tory crown must ­galvanise the party, spell out ­coherent ­policies — especially on immigration — and win back deserters in time for next May’s local elections.

Farage is already ahead in this race. If he wins big then he will raise his sights still higher.

He does not want a deal with the Tory Party. He wants to smash it, then lead it.

That would leave the door wide open for Labour to rule indefinitely — a bleak prospect for millions of voters who have now seen behind the curtain of Starmerite socialism.

Tide of public disgust

First impressions count. It is hard to imagine this Government — with no cash to spend — reversing the tide of public disgust over its greedy and unprincipled opening months in power.

In theory, Labour should struggle to win re-election.

But many thought the same when class warrior Sadiq Khan was running again for Mayor of London earlier this year.

Thanks to an almost insultingly inept Tory campaign, Khan won a record third chance to wreck our great capital city.

Just imagine what five years’ hard ­Labour in Westminster would do to ­Britain.

Unless the Tory Party seizes the ­Lazarus-like miracle on offer, rallies around its new leader and puts up a proper fight, Keir Starmer will win again in 2029.

That would be a betrayal of the British people — and the last nail in the coffin of the Stupid Party.

Fury as EU set to agree plan to send migrants to ‘deportation camps’ outside Europe after Labour SCRAPS Rwanda

EU leaders are poised to agree plans to send asylum seekers to holding camps outside Europe.

The dramatic shift comes after the bloc called Rishi Sunak’s Rwanda scheme “not a humane and dignified migration policy”.

President of the European Commission Ursula von der Leyen has written to leaders to encourage ‘out-of-the-box thinking’[/caption]

Ahead of a meeting tomorrow, President of the European Commission Ursula von der Leyen wrote to leaders to encourage “out-of-the-box thinking”.

She said they should learn from Italy’s scheme to send male migrants to Albania. The first group, rescued by Italian coastguards, are due to arrive today.

“We should explore possible ways forward as regards the idea of developing return hubs outside the EU,” she wrote.

EU home affairs commissioner Ylva Johansson previously called the Rwanda scheme “not humane and dignified”.

Sir Keir Starmer shelved the policy as soon as Labour came to power.

Yesterday Tory leadership contender Robert Jenrick said that the camps outside the EU were “not going to succeed”.

He told Times Radio: “That’s a policy that we have considered which is called offshore processing.

“Yes, here individuals are sent to a country and their applications heard. If they are successful they then come to your country.

“If not, your country still has to take responsibility and find them a way back to their home country or another safe country.

“I don’t see that as a viable way forwards. The proposal that I pursued, the Rwanda scheme, was a different one.

“That is one whereby if you try to come illegally to the United Kingdom you will be removed and never come back.”

Parents’ fury after school turns off heating to save energy and tells kids to wrap up to keep warm

A SCHOOL’S plan to turn off its heating for a day to cut its carbon footprint has been cancelled after a backlash from parents.

Teachers had advised pupils to wear vests and extra thick socks to keep warm on Blue Nose Day.

Wolsingham School has been forced to cancel its plan to turn off its heating for a day to cut its carbon footprint after being slammed by furious parents

But they were forced into a U-turn after mums and dads raged about their kids being asked to shiver through the day.

Friday had been chosen as temperatures were still likely to be a mild 15C.

But parents said it broke workplace heating rules and threatened to keep children at home.

One said: “We assumed this was a joke at first.

“What utter woke nonsense. Where do the teachers come up with these ideas?

“What next? Turn the lights off too to save costs? It’s complete tosh and the entire school teaching team deserves a week’s detention.”

Another hit out: “These people are nuts! Parents should just pull the kids out of school if possible and take it to court over the fine!”

A mother said: “Will be keeping my child off and they will stay home in the warm with the heating on max.”

The event — planned by the climate action team at Wolsingham secondary in Co Durham to highlight sustainability — has now been rescheduled for the summer term.

But The Sun chased it down and, hours later, the dad of two received the good news from the UK Ministry of Defence.

Speaking from his home near Dudley, West Midlands, John said: “It’s a nice little birthday present.

“I wasn’t getting too excited about it because nothing ever seemed to happen.

“But now it has, it’s very nice.”

On D-Day John patrolled the Channel in a twin-engine Bristol Beaufighter to sink Nazi fast attack craft, sitting on his helmet to protect himself from enemy fire.

Prince William saluted his ­bravery during 80th anniversary commemorations in June.

Speaking in Portsmouth the Prince of Wales said he was “deeply honoured to recognise the bravery of all of those like John Haddock who participated in the D-Day landings, the start of the liberation of France and Europe, that led to victory of the Allied Powers”.

John, who has been helped to live independently by the charity Blind Veterans UK, planned to celebrate his birthday with son John, 67, and daughter Barbara, 62.

More than 5,000 veterans of the 1944 Normandy landings have received Legion d’Honneur medals since being made available to applicants in 2014.

Up to 100 are thought to be still unclaimed.
