The long-running series The Simpsons has built a reputation over the years for predicting the future. Matt Groening’s animated sitcom has become notorious for some of its episodes and jokes becoming eerily accurate, in what some choose to believe is a stranger-than-fiction power of “prediction”.

Indeed, nearly 30 years after the show predicted it, Cypress Hill are set to share a stage with the London Symphony Orchestra. The joke harks back to a 1996 ep...

Der Sitz, der im Zuge der Grenzüberprüfung im letzten Jahr um Bayswater erweitert wurde, gehörte bei den Parlamentswahlen 2019 zu den knappsten des Landes. Die konservative Regierungspartei lag nur 150 St...

The Royal Academy of Arts’ legendary summer exhibition is underway in London. From big name artists, like Tracey Emin, to new and emerging talent, more than 1,700 works are on display across 13 gallery spaces.
