Best of HomeKit at CES 2019
I intended to cover this topic myself, but Rene Ritchie's done a great job so I'll just put this here instead. Sadly, nearly all power outlet solutions are geared towards the North American market, there are very few plugs for the UK and even the 2-gang versions require a hub which takes them from affordable to expensive very quickly.

Derby della Capitale: Lazio vs Roma
While the video itself feels like a reading of a Wikipedia page, I actually found out a few things about my favourite Italian club, Roma.
The rivalry is fierce. I saw Roma vs Juventus in Rome back in 2009 and it wasn't the type of atmosphere I'm used to watching Premier League football. The fans were aggressive and we left after 60 minutes. I'd highly recommend going to see a Serie A game, just not sure I'd be able to cope with the stress of watching a true derby in person.

ITV debuts first of it's 52 new idents
The 'old' ITV idents were really effective, with the colour scheme reflecting the video content behind it. It was versatile and well executed.
These new ones will be interesting with a new one each week but having watched ITV, I can't say I've noticed these idents yet... I have noticed their new menu style though which reminded me of Channel 4's idents that debuted more than 3 years ago:
Here's the new ITV menu for comparison. Maybe not siblings, but it feels like they're from the same family.
