A US company owner gave an employee a new car after he went the extra mile - 20 miles (32km) in fact, walking all night to make his first day at work. After his own car broke down, Walter Carr made the long commute by foot through the suburbs of Birmingham, Alabama, to his new job in removals. A police officer spoke to Mr Carr en route and, impressed by his grit, took him to get some breakfast. Praise for Mr Carr has flooded social media since his story was shared.

The British royal family has truly captivated the world. From the strength of Queen Elizabeth to the decency of Princes William and Harry, they always give the common people something to talk about. The royal family was the biggest news of the year in 2011 when the Duke of Cambridge, Prince William, married Kate Middleton, a commoner who became the duchess of Cambridge in what was deemed as a fairytale love story come true.

(CNN) - After 10 years in the wilderness -- if a premium airline that flies direct to more than 60 destinations can truly experience a wilderness -- Singapore Airlines is back on top. The Asian carrier was named Airline of the Year at the 2018 Skytrax World Airline awards, an honor it last held in 2008. It beat last year's victor, Qatar Airways, into second place. "We're very ecstatic," Yeoh Phee Teik, Singapore's senior vice president of customer experience, told CNN, shortly after senior staff and crew took to the stage at a glitzy ceremony in London on Tuesday. The top prize in what is seen as the aviation industry's equivalent of the Oscars, was one of four awards taken home by Singapore.

Kate Dinota was only seven when her mother found her first grey hair. By the time she was 14, she unquestioningly took to dying it. At 28, after working out she had spent about 1,000 hours and $18,000 (£14,000) in the salon chair covering up her greys, she decided to embrace them instead. She is one of the many women featured on Instagram account Grombre - a community for women of all ages who are ditching dyes.
