A Jurassic Park children’s clothing range has been spotted in Tesco

If your kids are fans of dinosaurs, keep your eyes peeled next time you head to your local Tesco.

Parents on social media have been going mad for a Jurassic Park-themed kid’s clothing range that’s been spotted in Tesco.

Based on the iconic film franchise which has captured the hearts of dinosaur fans for the past two decades, the casual clothing range was spotted in Tesco by a budget-savvy shopper and shared to the ever-popular Extreme Couponing and Bargains UK page on Facebook.

Although little is known about the range, and it doesn’t currently appear to be stocked on the Tesco website, the post has amassed thousands of interactions and comments from parents eager to get their hands on it.

T-shirts, long-sleeved tops, shorts, socks and more all appear to make up the themed clothing range aimed at toddlers and older.

The budget shopping page sadly didn’t share which store the range was spotted in.

Given how popular the Jurassic Park film franchise is, it’s not hard to see why news of the new clothing range hitting stores has gone down so well.

The franchise first hit screens with the original Jurassic Park in 1993, staring Sam Neill, Laura Dern, Jeff Goldblum and Richard Attenborough, which was the highest grossing film of that year and, at the time, became the highest grossing film ever. It was followed by the 1997 sequel The Lost World: Jurassic Park, and then the trilogy was completed with the release of the third instalment Jurassic Park III in 2001.

It then saw a reboot for modern-day audiences in 2015 with the Jurassic World franchise, staring Chris Pratt and Bryce Dallas Howard.

Sir David Jason set for TV return in Only Fools and Horses documentary Christmas special

Danny Jones Danny Jones David Jason returning for Only Fools and Horses Christmas special

In a surprise bit of festive news, the only and only Sir David Jason is returning for an Only Fools and Horses Christmas special this December. Lovely jubbly!

The best-loved and most-watched British comedy of all time will be back on our screens in documentary form this festive season, with Del Boy himself David Jason revisiting the iconic comedy character after 20 years he last played him on screen.

While the legendary sitcom was broadcast on BBC back in the day, the highly-anticipated Only Fools doc will be airing on Channel 5 right before Christmas as a special one-off programme.

Looking back on the show’s incredible run on UK screens over seven series and the several ‘Christmas Cracker’ specials, specifically, the latest Only Fools and Horses documentary will see Jason and a number of other guests appearing to chat about the legendary show.

The release date of the Only Fools special Christmas documentary is yet to be announced.

While it’s still unclear how many of the original cast will be appearing, Jason’s on-screen wife Tessa Peake-Jones (Raquel) is confirmed to be appearing along with other special guests including newscaster Krishnan Guru-Murthy and Bendiorm‘s Sherrie Hewson.

Sadly, a full theatrical reunion just isn’t on the cards following the deaths of Roger Lloyd Pack (Trigger), Kenneth MacDonald (Mike the Landlord) and Buster Merryfield (Uncle Albert) in the 30 years since the show ended its run.

Only Fools writer John Sullivan also sadly passed away aged 64 in 2011 and fellow co-star Nicholas Lyndhurst, a.k.a. Rodney Trotter, told Metro: “We can’t. John is no longer with us. John was the driving force of the show and we have also lost quite a few cast members now.

“I don’t think I could do it without them and I certainly couldn’t do it without John. At the risk of depressing everyone, I think the last two times I’ve seen David has been at funerals.”

Simply entitled, ‘The Story Of Only Fools And Horses At Christmas’, the 90-minute special is yet to have its broadcast date fully confirmed but you best keep your eyes peeled on the TV guide — we’ll let you know as soon we do.

Jason, 81, has only just recovered from hip surgery earlier this year, so it’ll be nice to see his familiar grin back on our screens.

Right, we’re off to binge a whole series on UK Gold.

Scott McTominay jokes he’s ‘fuming’ he didn’t score a hat-trick against Chelsea as he reflects on Man United’s mentality

Danny Jones Danny Jones Scott McTominay jokes he could have scored a hattrick against Chelsea

Scott McTominay has joked he’s “fuming” with himself after failing to score a hat-trick in Manchester United’s 2-1 win over Chelsea on Wednesday night and shed some light on the mentality around Old Trafford.

McTominay starred in the Red Devils’ win over Mauricio Pochettino’s side on a cold night at home, managing to bag a brace with a goal in the first and second half to get his squad over the line, but he himself said he could have had more.

Speaking to MUTV after the game, the 26-year-old said he and the squad knew they needed to drum up a reaction after the Newcastle disappointment, adding that contributing more goals is something he wants to keep working on and insisting that plenty of people back him to do so.

Confessing that his mum, dad and grandad have all been encouraging him to “get in the box” and that he just needs to “believe in [him]self and go for it”, the Scotsman did go on to quip he was “fuming” to not grab a third as he shook his head went on to shake and reveal a wry smile.

Scott McTominay was the match-winner against Chelsea.

Commentator and presenter Stewart Gardner went on to list McTominay’s impressive stats this season, having now scored 14 goals in his last 33 appearances for club and country. A seriously good rate from a midfielder typically entrusted to help link play and break things up in the middle of the park.

Now boasting half a dozen goals and an assist across all competitions so far this campaign, he sits as the club’s leading goalscorer in the Premier League with five finishes to his name — with only Bruno Fernandes having contributed more (five goals and five assists) — he’s genuinely become one of Man United’s main goal threats.

He also led the goalscoring charts in the Euro 2024 qualifying for a good long while there and still ended up joint fifth with his new teammate Rasmus Højlund on seven goals.

While he recently rubbished talk that he played as a striker regularly coming up through the youth academy, simply having been deployed for the odd game in reality, he has always had a shot on him and it isn’t the first time he’s bagged a winner or a big goal for the Reds. This wasn’t a bad one either:

A great assist from Alejandro Garnacho as well, who also starred on the night.

Chatting with the pundits on Amazon Prime Sport, he reiterated that he could have had “one or two more” on another night and agreed that the performance against Newcastle in the previous fixture was “pretty abysmal”, holding his hands up to admit that it was “no way near good enough”.

Reflecting on the later chance he had to seal the hat-trick towards the end of the game, he said he simply needed to “calm down on the last one”.

As for the mentality to get the result during a difficult period where the club remained under a lot of scrutiny from pundits and fans alike, McTominay went on to say that the manager is responsible for the way they played and some “lighter training sessions to keep energy levels up” definitely helped.

Regardless, he was sure to not get ahead of himself and assured ten Hag‘s team were still taking things a game at a time. You can watch the full highlights from Manchester United vs Chelsea down below:
