'DIEGO MARADONA': Official Trailer VIDEO

Diego Maradona is a football legend, and although that word gets bandied about A LOT in both football/soccer circles, as well as sport in general, Maradona is the real deal.

And therein lies the distinction: are we talking about Maradona or are we talking about Diego?

In the third film from the Academy Award and BAFTA-winning team behind SENNA and AMY and producer Paul Martin, 'DIEGO MARADONA' the movie is constructed from over 500 hours of never-before-seen footage from Maradona’s personal archive with the full support of the man himself.

Trailer JUST in:

Maradona’s glorious run past England’s defenders on the field is the stuff of legend.

AND: that goal he scored minutes earlier with his hand – the celebrated “hand of God”, as he coined it, was the stuff of legend of mythical proportions. See that moment in football history here:

The commentary back then was both dramatic and kinda funny: “Cosmic kite, what planet are you from that you can leave so many Englishmen in your wake?” Then ensued sob of joy at such a feat, celebrated across Argentina as revenge for the Falklands War. Oh yes, remember that? The tension!

On July 5, 1984, Diego Maradona arrived in Naples (as pictured above) for a world-record fee. For seven years he turned the football world upside down.

Says the film blurb:

He was the world’s most celebrated football icon and the most passionate but dangerous city in Europe were a perfect match for each other.
On the pitch, Diego Maradona was a genius. Off the pitch, he was treated like a God. The charismatic Argentine loved a fight against the odds and led Napoli to their first-ever title. It was the stuff of dreams.

But there was a price… Diego could do as he pleased while performing miracles on the pitch but, as time passed, darker days closed in.

'DIEGO MARADONA' is directed by Asif Kapadia.

The William Inglis Hotel: REVIEW

The William Inglis Hotel has arrived and she is an absolute beauty!



And as a bona fide city-working slash western-suburbs-dwelling gal, this new destination hub in hospitality ticks all the boxes for Josie's Juice. One, it's out west, in fact 30km from the Sydney CBD, and just 25 minutes from Sydney International Airport. It celebrates racing history and the thoroughbred industry, and is a unique equine themed boutique (but not small!) hotel offering the best in luxurious style and warm hospitality.

It's in the heart of Warwick Farm Racecourse, at 155 Governor Macquarie Drive, Warwick Farm, and the boutique 5 star hotel is named in full as The William Inglis Hotel, MGallery by Sofitel.

Josie's Juice was lucky to be one of 100 VIP invited guests to attend its much anticipated launch event last month (the event took place on January 31),  where media was treated to an absolute luxe 5 start experience - think the pinnacle of luxury with its truly world-class accommodation, warm hospitality, plentiful leisure facilities, and sweeping views of the Warwick Farm racecourse and Liverpool’s riverscape and you have hit jackpot with a  gorgeous venue to stay, play, and eat. (Insider tip: head straight to the rooftop bar for drinks with a view like you've not seen before!)

Developed by thoroughbred horse sales company William Inglis & Son Ltd, the hotel is part of a $140m precinct called Riverside Stables and is the first MGallery by Sofitel to open in Western Sydney.

Here is a video compile of this incredibly gorgeous precinct:

More about the launch event:

Guests were driven by executive transfers to the hotel in the early afternoon of Wednesday January 31, and led on a private tour of the expansive grounds. As dusk fell they ascended to The Chiltern Pool Deck & Bar, where its cabanas and sun loungers overlook 300 acres of greenery, for cocktails, Champagne and canapés – including beef carpaccio, duck breast with quinoa, apricot jam and fermented chilli, and lemony goats cheese with organic honey and beetroot.

Following the last light of sunset and a welcome speech from Inglis MD Mark Webster, guests were led down the eight levels to the beautiful Big Barn nestled amongst the Riverside Stables garden for a rustic, long-table dinner. Within the barns quintessential rural ambience, horse stables and 150-year- old design, guests were served a signature paddock-to-plate menu of local lamb two-ways with pumpkin, heirloom carrots and mint jus, and grilled Atlantic salmon.

After the main course, the evening was concluded in the elegant, old-fashioned whiskey bar 1867 Lounge for local cheeses, petits fours and a tasting of rare whiskies and boutique wines. Those fireplace features were a fantastic feature and kept the room so warm and cosy, it's the perfect spot to kick back and drink red wine all night, really. By the way, 1867 is the year William Inglis and Son was founded.

Guests were then able to end their night in one of the hotel’s 144 luxury rooms, each with its own unique theme and link to a champion racehorse to celebrate Inglis’ racing and thoroughbred history, where they could relax before bed in their personalised bathrobe.

The detail in these rooms was utterly charming and impeccable - think subtle horse motifs and a palette of greys and blues. The bed was one of the most comfy hotel beds we have EVER slept in. As a side note, I am not a hugely horse-y person, though I do love Gigis, but gosh I loved how cohesive and classy the whole theme looked in each room, and throughout. I am calling it early in this review, but I'd stay there in a heartbeat again and again.





The next morning a robust breakfast of local, seasonal ingredients was served up in all-day dining restaurant The Newmarket Room before guests left the rural oasis and returned to the bustle of Sydney. Or just up the road for us!

The breakfast bar set up was so beautiful, so many stylish finishing touches, so neat and clean and such care in every detail (clean and neat in hotels are so important, I think, don't you? I am obsessed with tidy and pristine accomodation, irrespective of how big and lavish the room is).

Here are some more launch highlights, the first shots on the terrace / rooftop at the Chiltern Pool:

And here, the glorious The Big Barn where our media dinner took place. Can you just imagine this for weddings? Especially for people who LOVE horsies (and even if they don't).

It's nestled amongst the Riverside Stables garden, and is rustic meets modern, and modeled from the original Newmarket Barn designed over 150 years ago. It has additional access to the Garden Pavilion, Rose Pavilion and surrounding gardens, allowing for supreme versatility for events. It's fully air-conditioned with access to the latest AV equipment, including television screens, speakers and Wi-fi access plus its own toilets and is wheelchair accessible. And... the best bit... guests can simply check in for the night a few steps away! LOVE.

Guests enjoying launch night dinner inside The Big Barn:

Oh yes, that bar! The 1867 bar:

The beauty of this whole precinct is that you can pick and choose which part of the destination hub you'd like today. Is it the Newmarket Restaurant you're popping in to for brekkie or brunch, or a group dinner? Are you wanting a massage or relax? Or drinks with the girls with a view with a difference? It's really all here (we also like the ample parking right outside, on the same level as the hotel, so you can easily grab your luggage or get someone from the hotel help you - they are so darn friendly here!)

Says the blurb on Newmarket Restaurant (which Josie's Juice was told was booked out for dinner, and for their delicious breakfast within mere days of opening):

Dining at Newmarket Restaurant has a dining philosophy centred on paddock to plate produce; creating a unique, modern menu designed with the comfort of rural soul, a true culinary experience. Newmarket Room is open for breakfast, lunch and dinner seven days a week. Located on the ground floor, Newmarket Room is inspired by the original Newmarket Complex that Inglis operated out of in Randwick for over 100 years; a stunning indoor and alfresco setting overlooking the beautiful gardens of Riverside Stables.

At the hotel you will also find Heroic Café, open daily from 7am – 3pm.

The Heroic Café is located on the ground floor of the hotel provides guests with high-quality coffee and café style food. You can chill in the lounge area or grab and go with their express coffee and pre-order options. Josie's Juice thinks it's also a great pitstop between the city and 'burbs route, and vice versa.

When Josie's Juice first arrived, we were shown the huge precinct called the 'Sales Arena'. 

This mezzanine level is where the horse viewing rooms are located. These are used as conference or meeting rooms (read more on that below) but during the horse auction they are places where VIPs and buyers can watch the horses on parade. We were told that every horse walks around the stage for one and a half minutes, and so far, they've sold horses ranging from a price tag of from $1000 to a whopping $2.2 million!

The huge space shows how its the ideal space for any corporate, conference or gala style event, a versatile space catering up to 1000 people with a variety of seating options that can cater to theatre, classroom and banquet options. Featuring the latest in audio visual equipment, technology and access to screens and high-speed internet, the Sales Arena has a built in stage and podium which is optimal for presentations. Ideal for AGMs, seminars, conferences or gala events, it's complemented by nine breakout spaces catering from 5 – 30 people and overlooks the Arena venue.

There is also the Garden Pavillion, a stunning, intimate and elegant space for an important event such as a wedding or party or corporate do, with floor to ceiling windows overlooking the gorgeous gardens and access to the Rose Pavillion, where guests can enjoy a unique  alfresco experience.



Located on Level 1 of The William Inglis Hotel, the Grand Armee Meeting room is an ideal space for a smaller meeting or conference. It is equipped with the latest AV technology, Wi-Fi and is air-conditioned. The meeting room can seat 50 in cabaret style or 90 in theatre style. There is also access to The Gallery which features 9 private suites that can be used as break away areas, catering from 5 – 30 pax and overlooking the Arena venue.

More info on their event spaces here: https://www.williaminglis.com.au/conference-and-events/

If you feel you want to experience a spa treatment during your stay, The William Inglis Hotel has that too! The spa, fitness centre and outdoor swimming pool combines up to date technology and techniques, fabulous facilities, premium products and qualified, caring professionals, it can be transformative journey of the senses.

The spa offers a variety of massage and beauty treatments and includes four treatment rooms and a stunning separate bridal suite for that special treatment on your special day. Clever for bridal party stay overs at the hotel. Gift vouchers are available from only $50.

Turia Pitt: Pregnant - VIDEO

Turia Pitt has just revealed she is pregnant with her first child, with fiancé Michael Hoskin.

Here is how she announced it on Instagram, where she captioned the pic: All I wanted was a back rub... 🤰😂 (we are stoked - bring it on! ❤️❤️❤️)

And below, clip from '60 Minutes' Australia last night with her announcement...

All I wanted was a back rub... 🤰😂 (we are stoked - bring it on! ❤️❤️❤️)

Turia and Michael found out only days before they were meant to head off to Nepal to start the very full on 12-day trek to Mount Everest Base Camp.

Turia took a pregnancy test because she had been feeling unusually tired and told '60 Minutes' her first reaction to it was: "Fuck.", revealing it to Michael by leaving the test in the bathroom while he was brushing his teeth:

She said: "I had a mouthful of toothpaste. I couldn’t really say much but I knew what was going on and I was just – I was like wow I can’t believe it!"

Turia reveals she was reluctant to cancel the trek, because it was for the burn survivor charity Interplast, but said that she had to make decisions for two people now.

"I wanted to do the walk, and then I thought about it and you know it’s not just myself I have to think about and Everest Base Camp there’s high altitude, low oxygen, not much sanitation and if something happens to you it’s really hard to get to a medical facility."

Turia is known as a bloody legend for not only surviving her burns ordeal, but for the inspirational work she has done extensive with Interplast since she recovered from severe burns she gained during a 100km marathon in the Kimberley region, when she and other runners became trapped in a grass fire.

Added Michael, saying they're 'stoked':

"We’ve been through something pretty traumatic and I mean we’re past that now – and you forget how hard that was so I reckon this will be more fun."

Adds Turia: "It makes me stoked I’m still here. Not every woman in the world gets to experience this and I get to with my best friend, my partner."

The couple's baby is due in December 2017.
