Brian Potter, British songwriter behind hits for Glen Campbell, Take That and more, dies aged 87

Versatile Essex-born hitmaker known for Rhinestone Cowboy, It Only Takes a Minute and many more had been living with Alzheimer’s disease

Brian Potter, one of the most versatile and successful British producers and songwriters of his generation, has died aged 87. He had been living with Alzheimer’s disease in recent years, his daughter told Billboard.

Working with American songwriting partner Dennis Lambert, the Essex-born Potter was behind an astounding array of 1970s hits spanning pop, soul, soft rock, country and beyond. The best-known include Glen Campbell’s Rhinestone Cowboy, a US No 1 in 1975; It Only Takes a Minute, a barnstorming disco hit for Tavares and later Take That; Player’s super-smooth Baby Come Back, another US No 1; and Ain’t No Woman (Like the One I’ve Got), one of the biggest hits for soul-poppers the Four Tops.

VÍDEO: criança fica gravemente ferida ao ser lançada para cima em creche dos EUA

Criança fica gravemente ferida ao ser lançada para cima em creche dos EUA Uma família está processando um clube no sul da Califórnia depois que uma criança de 1 ano e 11 meses ficou gravemente ferida ao ser lançada para cima e cair no chão. O caso aconteceu dentro da creche do estabelecimento, que fica na cidade de El Segundo. Uma câmera de segurança registrou o momento da queda (as imagens são fortes). ✅ Siga o canal de notícias internacionais do g1 no WhatsApp O vídeo, incluído no processo, mostra uma funcionária da creche jogando a criança para o alto. Em seguida, a criança cai e bate a cabeça com força no chão de madeira. A mulher que a lançou ainda cai por cima dela. Agora, os pais da criança estão processando o clube por negligência. Eles alegam que o filho sofreu uma "lesão cerebral traumática" ao atingir o chão — após ter sido lançado de aproximadamente 1,8 metro de altura. A ação judicial afirma ainda que o clube mentiu para os pais sobre a gravidade do ferimento e sobre como o incidente aconteceu. Segundo o processo, inicialmente a creche deu ao pai a impressão de que seu filho havia sofrido apenas um ferimento leve. "A farsa do Bay Club ao esconder este incidente horrível dos pais é imperdoável. O espaço de creche deve ter o mais alto nível de cuidado com as crianças e, se uma criança fica doente ou ferida, eles devem notificar os pais com transparência e urgência", afirmou o advogado da família em comunicado. O clube respondeu dizendo que preza pela segurança das famílias: "Não podemos comentar sobre litígios em andamento. No Bay Club, a segurança de nossos membros, funcionários e das famílias que atendemos é nossa maior prioridade."

‘Maggie Thatcher, can you hear me?’ The story behind the iconic Norway v England commentary

Bjørge Lillelien’s famous rant after 1981 clash stemmed from Norwegian obsession with English football

What do Lord Nelson, Lord Beaverbrook, Sir Winston Churchill, Sir Anthony Eden, Clement Attlee, Henry Cooper and Lady Diana have in common? On 9 September 1981 they were all beaten by Norway.

At least that is according to the iconic Norwegian radio commentator Bjørge Lillelien. His triumphant, giddy and slightly unhinged rant after Norway beat England 2-1 in a World Cup qualifier has gone down in Norwegian folklore. It has also attained something of a cult status abroad, with the Observer declaring it in 2002 the greatest bit of commentary ever.
