    During an appearance on Saturday's episode of The Jonathan Ross Show, the 41-year-old actress reflected on her on-screen kiss with Tobey Maguire in the hit 2002 superhero movie. In the scene, Spider-Man, played by Tobey, is seen dangling upside down from a web in the pouring rain, while Kirsten's character Mary Jane locks lips with him while standing upright.

    Brits will bake 66 million treats over Easter – but 40% will end up in the bin

    Budding home bakers will make a whopping 66 million sweet treats over the Easter weekend – but four in 10 admit some of these will be destined for the bin. A poll of 2,000 adults found 44 per cent – the equivalent of 23 million Brits – are set to bake something over the long weekend, with wannabe pâtissiers creating an average of three items. However, 45 per cent admit their skills in the kitchen leave a lot to be desired – and for 32 per cent, their creations haven’t always been suitable to serve to guests. Of these botched bakes, 28 per cent were burnt to a crisp, 19 per cent dropped the finished product on the floor, nine per cent even confused the sugar with salt. The research was commissioned by Maltesers, which has launched the ‘Easter Hop-line’, an emergency delivery service that sends Maltesers Bunnies out to cover up any baking imperfections. Anyone in need of the Easter Hop-line in London, Cardiff, and Edinburgh can call 0800-5335-HOP (0800-5335-467) on Saturday 30th for help with their bakes.
