But she was not among the Academy Award Best Actress contenders announced on Thursday.

Looking on the bright side, she posed for mag Elle’s January digital cover — telling them: “I always say the win is in the work.”

A proud Pamela has revealed what it would mean to win the gong, 33 years after she burst on to our TV screens in her tiny red swimsuit as lifeguard CJ Parker.

Pamela is playing the lead role in The Last Showgirl, which is directed by a member of the prominent filmmaking Coppola family – Gia, the granddaughter of Francis Ford Coppola, and niece of Sofia.

She said: “Gia was insistent that we were all going to see it together, and we’re going to see it on the big screen with an audience.

“And so all of us were in tears. She traumatised us.”

In the film, Pamela plays the lead role of Shelly, and she was so desperate to prove herself as a ­serious actress that she knew she had nothing to lose and everything to gain by giving the part her all.

She added: “My whole life has been like that — ‘What do I have to lose?'”

THERE’S nothing quite as satisfying as digging into a tasty packet of crisps.

But food fans have been left horrified after it was revealed how one popular brand of the tasty snack is really made.

This comes after crisp lovers got a glimpse inside the factory where Quavers are made, as comedian Paddy McGuinness explored took a look as part of the BBC’s Inside The Factory series.

Things started off as you might expect, that is until is was revealed that Quavers aren’t even technically classic as crips.

This is because Quavers are made from the potato starch powder, which left behind during the crisp-making process – who knew?

So, how are Quavers made?

First starch powder, fine rice and soya flours are mixed together to make a dough.

Then the mixture is passed through a machine where it comes out looking a lot more like lasagne sheets than the cheesy snack we all know and love.

The huge sheets are then quickly cooled and cut by a machine at rate of 7,900 a minute.

The small sections are then added to sunflower to cook, which is when they begin to look a little more familiar.

The hot of the oil transforms any water to steam, which puffs them up into the cheese curls.

Finally, the cheesy coating is added as the Quavers travel through a huge metal drum.

But after watching the process some viewers weren’t so keen on snacking to Quavers anymore.

One person wrote on social media: “Inside the factory is interesting and horrifying in equal measure. Industrialised production of ‘food’ ain’t pretty.”.

And a second said: Inside the factory should be required viewing to realise what Big Food is up to.”

Meanwhile, someone else quipped: “There’s a lot of work goes into making the humble Quaver!”

“I don’t think I’ll be buying any more Quavers after this,” another chimed in.

That said, not everyone was bothered by the revelation.

One food fan wrote: I must start eating less processed food. Also me: I really fancy a bag of Quavers after watching Inside the Factory,” one Twitter use joked.

And another simply wrote: “Do I give a flying fig how they make Quavers?”

ELLIE SCOTNEY survived a first-round slashed eye to defend her IBF and WBA super-bantamweight world titles.

The 26-year-old Catford queen went toe-to-toe with New Zealand warrior Mea Motu and was a bloody mess before the end of the opener.

But her cutman played a blinder and Scotney picked apart her relentless Kiwi opponent to land a unanimous decision, with all three judges calling it: 99-91.

Both 122lb women threw early hooks to the head but Scotney started taking control with her jab.

Motu, 35, did land an early right and Scotney was left with a bruise on her left cheekbone – and seconds later she was cut.

As she walked back to her corner, Scotney was leaking loads out of her left eye but her cutman was rapidly working on the case.

Motu was raw and tough but constant and mean.

Scotney was the sharper and smarter but Motu was a typical All Black and always coming forward in waves.

Scotney found her range in the third and was able to pick Motu off but the tough challenger wasn’t taking a backward step.

Motu was always on the front foot, but it was Scotney who had the better lateral movement and was controlling the fight on the edges of the ring.

Motu made a vicious start to the fourth, with a couple of right hands but Scotney coped and used her superior skills to dominate the backend of the session.

The fifth was a wrestle until Scotney scored with body blows and a peach of a left hook to Motu’s face.

And with her cut just threatening to worsen, Scotney scored with a couple of crisp digs just before the bell.

And, by the sixth session, Scotney’s class was showing as she landed lead left hooks and danced out of danger sweetly.

Relentless Motu never stopped marching forward for another scrum but Scotney was tagging her regularly and a right hook was the pick of the seventh round.

Scotney’s right hand was superb in the eighth, as a straight, a hook and an uppercut. Motu was a greedy punchbag walking on to every punch.

And she kept her cool in the final two stanzas to keep hold of her belts and hopefully move on to adding more.

The champ said: “I am not too happy with my performance, I hurt her at times but I looked for too many single shots.

“She was a tough girl, 20-0, so I hope people put more respect on my name now.

“I wasn’t born with this nose, I’m from Catford so I grew up having fights, but my trainer Shane managed to tame it in there tonight.

“Of course I want to be undisputed, I want the two missing belts but I need those girls to take the fights too, otherwise I will go up to featherweight and fight Skye Nicolson.”

COPS who seized Axel Rudakubana’s electronic devices uncovered a library of hate.

They found more than 164,000 documents stored on two Lenovo tablets.

The fiend, 17 at the time, had also wiped the browsing history on a HP laptop.

One of the tablets was used between May and July 2024 and contained material on Nazi Germany, war in Sri Lanka and ethnic cleansing in Somalia.

One study explored violent customs of 17th and 18th century Native Americans, including themes of cannibalism and blood lust.

Another documented how 5,000 soldiers died in the Russian-Chechen conflict from 1994 to 1995.

Rudakubana’s parents fled Rwanda during its 1994 civil war that left a million people dead in just 100 days.

His dad Alphonse, 49, is believed to have fought with the Rwandan Patriotic Army against the Hutu-dominated regime.

Rudakubana also downloaded “The myth of the remote-controlled car bomb” — explaining their use and effectiveness in terror attacks.

A source said: “He was obsessed with the most appalling atrocities.

“The nastier it was, the more interesting he found it.”

One document, “Military studies in the Jihad against Tyrants: The Al-Qaeda Training Manual”, contained advice and instruction on committing acts of terror.

By the time he left his family home in Banks, Lancashire, to travel to Southport, he was in possession of specific instructions in the manual about a knife attack.

Another document, called “Strong nitric acid”, is a study on the chemical, used by IS to dissolve 25 spies in 2016.

Det Supt Matt Smith, of Merseyside Police, said: “The material shows his obsession with extreme violence and how he obtained information on how to kill, alongside the procurement of weapons.”
