The son of an iconic Scots DJ tragically died after complaining of a mysterious leg pain. Oliver Park, son of Aberdeen DJ Graeme Park, tragically lost his battle to a rare type of sarcoma on March 22, 2023, aged just 18.

The brave Liverpool school pupil endured a near two-year fight after being diagnosed with a melanotic malignant nerve sheath tumour, which is so rare it only accounts for just 0.02 per cent of all cancers.The cancer targets the bones and then spreads to the soft tissues.

Oliver had complained of leg pain over a long period before he was given the devastating diagnosis in December 2021.In memory, Oliver, 65 teachers from his former school - St Hilda's High, in Liverpool - ran a huge 53-mile relay race on Saturday, May 4, the Liverpool ECHO reports.The big-hearted teachers raised more than £19,000 for Sarcoma UK, a charity that supports those struck down by the disease.The school staff tackled a gruelling route along the Liverpool and Wirral coastlines and two ferry crossings over the River Mersey.

The route then weaved through the city, passing the Albert Dock, through Liverpool ONE shopping centre and up to the Anglican Cathedral.Organisers Gayle Gilbert and Ben Norton, said: "The outpouring of support from our staff, who collectively ran an incredible 53 miles, is a testament to the profound impact Oliver had on our school community. "Raising over £19,000 for Sarcoma UK is a fitting tribute to Oliver's warmth and spirit but also to the bravery of Graeme, Jenny and Ben in sharing Oliver's story, so that others will benefit from our fundraising."We are immensely proud of our team's efforts and grateful to everyone who has helped us so far.

James Corden entertains ‘Gavin & Stacey’ fans during emergency plane landing
James Corden reportedly entertained fellow passengers onboard a flight in Portugal after it was forced to carry out an emergency landing.The actor was on a flight which reportedly failed to reach altitude as it was leaving Faro. The plane circled for 45 minutes before pilots announced that they would be making an emergency landing in Lisbon.One passenger has shared detailed of the event, adding that the actor and comedian entertained the other passengers, posed for selfies, and even hinted at the newly revealed Gavin & Stacey episode coming on Christmas Day.Speaking to Metro, the passenger, named Vanessa, said “He walked up and down the aisles talking to people, and let everybody take a selfie with him.”She continued: “I made a joke and went, ‘Oh if we’re all going to die, you could tell us how the Gavin & Stacey Christmas special ends?’ and he went ‘Do you really want to know?’”The former Late Late Show host then teased a resolution to the long-running joke of the mysterious fishing trip shared by Jason and Bryn, as Vanessa shared: “He said ‘I can’t tell you, but do you want to know what happened on the fishing trip?’ and I was like ‘Yes! I do!’ and he was like, ‘I can’t tell you that either.’”She continued to speak on Corden’s demeanour, saying: “He was just really nice, he would have been well within his rights to sit and sulk in his seat like the rest of us would be doing but he didn’t.”Vanessa then explained the context behind some photographs of Corden speaking with a staff member after passengers were forced to vacate the plane following its emergency landing.“We’re in the terminal and there was not a member of British Airways staff to be found,” Vanessa claimed.
