Located at Reading, which opened on 2 June 2021. Wendy's first attempt at expanding in the UK began in 1980 but pulled out in 1986 due to lackluster sales and their second attempt began in 1992 but pulled out in 2001 due to unable to compete with the likes of McDonald's and Burger King.  

Located at the Lakeside Shopping Centre in Essex, which opened on 28 June 2010. Taco Bell's first attempt at expanding in the UK began in 1986 but pulled out in 1994 outside military bases due to lackluster sales.

During 1994-96, the American pop rock band recorded an album's worth of new material titled Songs from the Black Hole , which was going to be a rock opera but most of the material was discarded in spring 1996 and recorded a new album out of scratch, which was  Pinkerton  with five songs from the scrapped album being reworked into  the  Madame Butterfly  inspired album whether it was on the album itself or as B-sides, though some of the songs (albeit in demo form) would later appear in frontman Rivers Cuomo's Alone compilation series.

By which I mean, "A Star is Burns". Regardless of what series creator Matt Groening said, I found it to be an enjoyable entry in the show's sixth season.

With the exception of the UK and Georgia of course, since the trademark is taken by a Dutch chip shop called Wendy's Fish and Chips for operations in Belgium, Luxembourg and the Netherlands.

Until Power Rangers Cosmic Fury arrives on Netflix. Cosmic Fury will be the last season of the show to be shot in New Zealand and also the last before the franchise takes a hiatus from new episodes, though the Boom Studios comic books will continue on.

While I understand why, I don't think they should be so overreliant on doing films based on IPs.

The Reliant Robin and of course, nowadays well known for its appearances in Mr. Bean and  Top Gear .

I think we're overdue for a new DC/Marvel crossover comic and I don't give a damn what the higher-ups from the latter say. There's always hope.

Honestly, I don't care what Elon Musk says, I'm not going to call Twitter by their upcoming new name X. Twitter is Twitter and he can piss off for all I care. I rest my case.

Everyone's favourite lasagna-loving, Monday-hating tabby cat Garfield's eponymous comic strip debuted on this day, two years after his debut in the comic strip  Jon , which focused on his owner Jon Arbuckle.

This Levi's Jeans for Women ad which focuses on a hula doll going incognito by changing her outfit to a white shirt and jeans as well using her hula skirt as a wig was in fact done by Pixar. Think of it as a spiritual spinoff to Toy Story .  

Not going to lie but if it weren't for this or any other film from Studio Ghibli like Princess Mononoke , we wouldn't have such great stuff like Avatar: The Last Airbender  and so on and this is one of the reasons why Hayao Miyazaki is considered one of the greatest anime visionaries of all time. Truly one of the best anime films and it's worth knowing it's to date the only anime film to have won the Best Animated Feature Oscar back in 2003. I really hope we see more anime films winning the Oscar one day, given that the anime film medium is currently under a new mainstream resurgence.

I am saddened to hear about yesterday's news that American-Swiss singer and actress Tina Turner had passed away at age 83 at her home in Zurich. Having started her career in the late Fifties as part of a rock and roll duo with her eventual first husband Ike Turner, she gave such hits such as "Proud Mary", "Nutbush City Limits", "River Deep - Mountain High" and "It's Gonna Work Out Hits" as well as her acting debut as the Acid Queen in the 1975 film adaptation of The Who's rock opera Tommy  before divorcing Ike in 1978 after a complicated 16-year marriage in which she suffered emotional and domestic abuse. Following her divorce, her career had gradually been relegated to performing in hotels and so on before her cover of Al Green's "Let's Stay Together" in 1983 marked the beginning of her comeback, which occured in form of her fifth album Private Dancer and proved that she could succeed without her now ex-husband and ...

Doce are better known for representing Portugal in the 1982 Eurovision Song Contest, performing the song "Bem bom" and finished 13th.

Back in 1999, KRS-One did a song for The Corruptor  soundtrack titled "5 Boroughs", which featured several rappers such as Vigilante, Buckshot, Keith Murray, Cam'ron, Bounty Killer, Killah Priest, Prodigy, Redman and Run.

While Britain's first TV channel, better known by its full name The Children's Channel, aimed at kids all but merged into Trouble, this was their last broadcast on this day 25 years ago.

And of course, sampled by Nicki Minaj for her debut album Pink Friday .

This minimalistic design of The Rolling Stones' 1991 live album Flashpoint says it best.

Before it was Turkish Chef, the Savoy Cafe in Wandsworth Road was best known for its appearance in the music video of a-ha's hit single "Take on Me".

I went to Little Chef back in April 2011 when me, my sister, my dad and stepmum stopped there for lunch on our way to Caerphilly, where the latter's cousin lived at the time. Great food and it's a shame that the restaurant is no longer around at rest areas.

I don't do April Fool's jokes, okay.

Two words: Coney Island as explained in this video.

While I can't find any video - just pictures - of it, Japanese baseball team Hanshin Tigers has an annual tradition of a geisha or a maiko (apprentice geisha) from  Miyagawacho to throw the first pitch in one of their games. How interesting is that?

This song "Lift Me Up" peaked at number 18 in spring 2005.

It had the NSYNC song "It's Gonna Be Me".

In one of the new Funko Pops from Marvel Studios' What If? revealed a new original character named Kahhori, who is a Native American heroine. Honestly, I'm hoping that she'll make it to the comics one day and I can picture Amber Midthunder or Q'orianka Kilcher voicing her in the upcoming second season of the multiverse centric Marvel Cinematic Universe animated series.

Last week, James Gunn has confirmed that he read the Marv Wolfman run of Teen Titans when he was younger and honestly, I'm hopeful we'll see the Titans in a future DCEU film under his tenure.

If you're unaware, Anime Superhero (fka Toonzone) is currently offline due to maintenance issues that began last month and the admin have confirmed via Twitter and Facebook that they're currently working on it, which means it will likely return during this month.

Yep, The Mandalorian is back on Disney+ and I'm currently watching the third season premiere.

It had a rollercoaster theme.  

This summer 2008 ad featured Rihanna's then-new hit "Disturbia".  

The time when Roger run over five guys all because they didn't pay him $20 for his limo service.  

Here's Ed from Ed, Edd n Eddy singing "Your Love" by The Outfield.  

This tunnel actually leads to the Waterloo & City line, the shortest line in the London Underground.

If anything, it feels more in place with logos of European football leagues.

Power Rangers Cosmic Fury will arrive on Netflix.

The trailer for Fast X will arrive online before its TV debut at the Super Bowl.

October 16 will mark Disney's 100th anniversary since it began on that day in 1923.  

April 4 will mark Warner Bros.' 100th anniversary since it began on that day in 1923.  

Some of these flag designs don't look right if you know what I mean.  

This was a 1997 Portuguese ad for the British girl group's sponsorship with the soft drink that occured during the year and it was during the time when Pepsi underwent a major overhaul with their Generation Next branding.  

There was this cinema outside the Millennium Dome, called the Skyscape cinema. Named after British Sky Broadcasting, now Sky Group, this cinema operated from 1999 to 2000 before it was dismantled after the Dome's closure. The Dome would reopen as the O2 in 2007, with a cinema inside, initially a Vue cinema but now a Cineworld cinema.

This is the Aldwych tube station, also known as the Strand tube station, which opened in 1907 before ceasing operations in 1994. The station continues to be used as a filming location.
