From using the location tracker on your phone to retaining proof of purchase, steps you can take

• What to do if your phone is lost or stolen: practical steps to restore peace of mind

Headphones are a daily accessory for many, making them a tempting target for thieves. Whether they are stolen from your head or pinched from a bag, here’s what to do.

Check the headphones control app on your phone. Many of them have a function that shows where they were last connected to your phone, so you can try to track them down.

Check Find My on your phone, some Bluetooth models such as Apple’s AirPods, Samsung’s Galaxy Buds or Google’s Pixel Buds can be tracked. You may also be able to report them as lost in Find My in case anyone finds them.

Report the theft to the police on 101 with a description of the headphones, including make, model, colour and serial number, which should be found on the box.

Contact your insurance company to see whether the headphones are covered by any of your policies.

Set up any support or control apps for your headphones on your phone and turn on the location tracking feature.

Add the headphones to Find My on Apple or Google if they are compatible.

Consider adding a Bluetooth tracker such as an Apple AirTag, Tile or Samsung SmartTag to the headphones or case.

Write down the make, model and serial number of the headphones and safely store these details along with your proof of purchase.

Consider getting the headphones engraved with your name, which may be possible at the point of purchase.

Watch where you wear your headphones and use any awareness features on noise-cancelling versions that may help you hear something coming in the event a thief tries to take them while you are wearing them.

There’s potentially too many run-of-the-mill I-met-Lennon anecdotes from talking heads and fans, but enough wheat among the chaff to keep things interesting

We have recently seen a slew of intriguing movies about John Lennon’s post-Beatles existence: The Lost Weekend: A Love Story , about Lennon’s brief relationship with his assistant May Pang, and Kevin Macdonald’s excellent archive-clip-collage study One to One: John & Yoko . Now here is a lengthy and self-consciously reverential film, which is sadly the weakest of the group. It doesn’t quite get to grips with the implications of its own title (was Lennon on “borrowed time”, exactly, in the 1970s?) and there’s an awful lot of hot air from an awful lot of talking heads in its lengthy running time, some of whom are regaling us with less-than-premium-quality anecdotes – often just beamingly recalling the pinch-me moment they actually met John Lennon and, wow, he said hi and they couldn’t believe it.

The film covers the whole period from Lennon’s arrival in New York right through the decade, the solo albums, quarrels with Paul, protests, interviews, joint ventures with Yoko, the struggle to get a green card, the “lost weekend” with Pang, and finally his murder at the time he was planning an ambitious new global tour. Beatles-expert veterans like Ray Connolly and Philip Norman offer their reminiscences, along with broadcasters like Andy Peebles, Bob Harris and Tony Palmer – but, frankly, there are no alpha-level surviving intimates of Lennon.

Rolling coverage of the latest economic and financial news

• China manufacturing activity plummets amid Trump tariff war

Factory activity across China contracted at the fastest pace in 16 months in April, a factory survey shows today, highlighting the economic impact from US President Donald Trump’s trade war.

China’s official manufacturing purchasing managers’ index has dropped to 49, the weakest level since December 2023, down from 50.5 in March.

“The sharp drop in the PMIs likely overstates the impact of tariffs due to negative sentiment effects, but it still suggests that China’s economy is coming under pressure as external demand cools.”

“Although the government is stepping up fiscal support, this is unlikely to fully offset the drag, and we expect the economy to expand just 3.5% this year.”

Channel 4 interviews adult survivors in an essential documentary. Plus: David Tennant’s tricky new gameshow. Here’s what to watch this evening

9pm, Channel 4
Anna Hall has been reporting on gang grooming for more than two decades, after first broadcasting her findings in her 2004 film Edge of the City. In this horrifying documentary, she meets five grownup victims who speak about their experiences, examines the failings of the authorities (victims were referred to as “child prostitutes” or labelled “promiscuous”) and looks at how grooming became a polarising political issue. What’s even more troubling, Hall says, is the fact that the exact same patterns are being repeated today. Hollie Richardson

‘Dogfight’ between Labour and Reform UK is turning ugly after Nigel Farage’s party put immigration centre stage

It’s lunchtime on St George’s Day and the Royal pub in Runcorn is a festival of flags, fags and Farage. “I’m sorry,” says Mike Kneale, a painter, as he explains which party he will back in this week’s crucial byelection: “But it’s Nigel Farage.”

The Reform UK leader’s Cheshire cat grin leaps out from billboards and doormats all over this constituency, where his party is odds-on to win its fifth MP and deliver a blow to Keir Starmer. It would be the first time in half a century that Runcorn has elected a non-Labour MP.

Advertising Standards Authority says neither Lavazza UK nor Dualit’s product can be recycled at home

Descriptions of coffee pods as “compostable eco capsules” were misleading as they could not be composted at home, the Advertising Standards Authority has ruled.

The ASA has banned adverts by Lavazza UK and Dualit, which both made claims about the eco credentials of their coffee products.

It’s hard to resist this moreish story about Napoleon’s renegade pastry chef (who is also a spy). Orgies, opium and tantalising fun with whipped cream are all on the menu

Much like the desserts whipped up by its titular cook, Carême is a rich, moreish and knowingly indulgent treat. This swashbuckling French period drama follows the “world’s first celebrity chef” Antonin Carême as he cavorts around Paris in the early 1800s under the watchful eye of first consul Napoleon Bonaparte, whom he has sworn to hate as he holds him responsible for the death of his adopted sister. It is about as understated as a 12-course tasting menu. But as it scoffs and seduces its way through the Napoleonic era, it’s hard not to fall for the extravagant charms of the Bake Off: extra spice.

Carême (a twinkly-eyed Benjamin Voisin, in full rock-star mode) is a principled young renegade and preternaturally talented pastry chef who makes his disdain for Napoleon clear from the beginning. Despite being midway through a steamy, whipped cream-based encounter with his sometime girlfriend Henriette (Lyna Khoudri), he is called away from his, ahem, tasting session and asked to cook for the troops. “Should I poison them?” he asks, cheekily, before setting to work. He does not choose to commit mass murder, but does reluctantly end up saving Napoleon’s life, leaving Carême in a bind. Should he work for the man he despises? Does he have a choice?
