Homeland star David Harewood tells the BBC that it's not easy being in the house which was built with profits from the transatlantic slave trade, especially as his ancestor was once "owned" by the Lascelles family.

A TikTok video has gone viral which has is so totally heartbreaking that I can't shake it. A man asked for a woman's phone number and she said no so he picked up a brick and hit her with it.
