He still has the mop top, the downy skin and the sensuous sanctity of the boy every mother wants her daughter to bring home - if he weren't dating his dimpled co-star from High School Musical, Vanessa Hudgens. He could be the perfect perpetual adolescent. It's as if everyone wants him to be 17 forever. (See pictures of famous couples...

Some are intended to be viewed one at a time, like the mournful vignettes from the lives of his fictional alter egos: Soho Eckstein, a rapacious South African businessman, and Felix Teitlebaum, a melancholy soul who pines for Eckstein's sensuous wife.

The hotel's opening in August was smartly timed too, pre-empting the centenary of the first officially recorded powered flight in Britain, made by Samuel Franklin Cody at Farnborough in October...
True to its sensuous name with velvety smooth jazz and lush décor - think plush velour wall designs reminiscent of French brocade wallpaper and buttery leather couches with pewter and chocolate finishes - Indulj is a luxuriously classy lounge. A popular drink is the fruity, pink sparkling Nuvo, born in Paris. If bubbles aren't your thing, order your sexy poison of choice at the brushed stainless steel bar and hobnob on the sparkly, silver floor tiles. Munch on some elevated Southern-style soul food like crab corndogs. The second floor outdoor deck offers a splendid view of the Duke...
