To all the Beatles fans, get ready for an unforgettable musical journey as the worlds No1 Beatles tribute band, The Bootleg Beatles, return to the Philippines for a spectacular concert.

The Bootleg Beatles have become ‘an institution’ over the past 44 years with their note-perfect recreation of the hits from the world’s most famous songbook.

Westeros is on the brink of a bloody civil war with the Green and Black Councils fighting for King Aegon and Queen Rhaenyra, respectively. Based on George R.R. Martin’s “Fire & Blood,” and set 200 years before the events of Game of Thrones, the HBO Original drama series’ House of the Dragon Season 2 tells the story of House Targaryen.
Spoiler alert: In Season 1 of House of the Dragon, available in the Philippines through HBO GO powered by PLDT Home, Viserys I Targaryen passes on and his house is divided between the Greens – led by his son, King Aegon II Targaryen, and the Blacks – led by his daughter Queen Rhaenyra Targaryen. With allegiances being formed, the finale of House of the DragonSeason 1 also saw Rhaenyra’s second son Prince Lucerys Velaryon killed by Prince Aemond Targaryen and his dragon.
With five episodes already on HBO GO, the series has no shortage of surprises signature to the franchise and some of Season 2’s characters are proving to be more memorable than others, at least to us here. Here are our favorite characters:
Daemon had an incredible character arc in Season 1. Starting as a rogue prince whom everyone thinks wants the throne of his brother Viserys I (Paddy Considine), we saw the charismatic warrior turn into a loving brother and husband. In S1 episode eight, he helps his ailing brother sit on the Iron Throne and gently puts the crown on his head. He also beheads Vaemond Velaryon when he insults Rhaenyra. In S2, Daemon does not want to wait around for Rhaenyra to end her grieving and wants to fight for their birthright.
When will heartache end for Rhaenyra? Possibly never. In S2 episode 1 Rhaenyra grieves over Lucerys’ death. While she doesn’t want a war and wants revenge, she still shows restraint and wants to find a solution without fighting. We love Rhaenyra because even through her anger, she displays restraint.
Aemond displayed his hatred for Rhaenyra’s children early on in the first season. He lost an eye as a child while fighting with his nephew Lucerys Velaryon. He told his mother that he may have lost an eye but he gained Vhagar, one of the most powerful dragons. We see a little more of this character in S2 episode two. With how Aemond’s history in season one, we can’t help but to feel for his character.
As a member of the Kingsguard, Ser Criston is often seen breaking his oath and allegiance – first with Rhaenyra in season one and currently with Queen Alicent. By the end of episode two of the new season, he has replaced Aegon’s grandfather Otto Hightower as the King’s Hand. Much like Rhaenyra, we fell for his charm in the beginning and are eager to see what comes his way in this season.
Alicent is a highly complicated character and would do anything to keep her son on the Iron Throne. While we may not see eye to eye with her, we do respect her character’s development, determination, and how she becomes one of the key players in House of the Dragon.
The Queen who never was, Rhaenys Targaryen was married to Corlys Velaryon,Master of Driftmark and the head of House Velaryon. You can never read Rhaenys or predict what she’s going to do, nor will you ever know whose side she’s on until she wants you to know. She flexed her power at the end of the first season when she attacked King’s Landing riding on her dragon, Meleys, and more recently in Season 2 when she stands up to Daemon, telling him to let Rhaenyra grieve. While her strength was truly inspiring, we see Rhaenys fall to her death in House of the Dragon S2.
Lord Cregan Stark is on the list simply because he is a Stark. We love Starks – no matter how long or short their appearance is. Cregan pledges his allegiance to the Blacks as he tells Jacaerys that “the Starks do not forget their oath, my prince…” We can’t wait to see more of Cregan!
With drama and alliances unfolding so quickly in each episode of House of the Dragon Season 2, do not miss an episode or you’ll get lost! You don’t have to, thanks to PLDT Home, you can catch the series every Monday on HBO GO for only P199/month.
For unli-entertainment guaranteed, apply for PLDT Home Plans 2099 and up to enjoy 3 months of HBO GO with no additional costs and avail free installation worth P3600. For more information, visit pldthome.com/fiber.

Gut health plays a vital role in overall well-being, impacting everything from digestion and immunity to mental health. Recognizing the importance of a balanced gut microbiome, NutraHealthyGut introduces its range of probiotic and prebiotic supplements designed to enhance digestive health and promote a healthy lifestyle for everyone in the family.
A healthy gut microbiome aids in efficient food digestion, nutrient absorption, and maintaining a robust immune system. Conversely, poor gut health can lead to digestive issues such as diarrhea, constipation, bloating, and serious conditions like irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) and inflammatory bowel disease (IBD). Furthermore, the gut-brain connection means that a healthy gut can positively influence mood and cognitive function. Prioritizing gut health is essential for a healthier and happier life.
Understanding Gut Health
Gut health is influenced by various factors such as diet, age, medication, sleep, exercise, stress, and lifestyle choices. High-fiber foods, fruits, vegetables, and fermented foods promote healthy gut bacteria. However, aging, medications, poor sleep, high stress, lack of exercise, smoking, excessive alcohol, and dehydration can negatively impact gut health.
The Role of Probiotics and Prebiotics
Probiotics are live microorganisms that help maintain, balance, or increase the good bacteria in the gut. They can be found in some fermented foods, though not all foods act as effective probiotics since some do not survive digestion. Prebiotics, on the other hand, are non-digestible fibers that support the activity of good bacteria in the gut. They are found in fiber-rich foods, providing nourishment for probiotics.
The Synbiotic Concept
The concept of synbiotic is a combination of both probiotic and prebiotic approaches. A synbiotic aims at stimulating the growth and activity of indigenous bifidobacteria and lactobacilli in conjunction with probiotic strain. Prebiotic provide additional protection during intestinal transit to ensure persistence of the probiotic strain to the lower intestinal tract. Prebiotic enhance the growth of the probiotic strain and of the targeted commensal populations.
NutraHealthyGut Supplements
NutraHealthyGut offers an effective supplement range designed to support and enhance gut health. The products combine the power of probiotics and prebiotics to restore intestinal ecology and balance, reducing constipation, infectious diarrhea, and antibiotic-related diarrhea. They also improve digestion, alleviate bloating, and help reduce symptoms of lactose intolerance. Additionally, NutraHealthyGut supplements aid in preventing UTIs, managing symptoms of IBD & IBS, and addressing pediatric atopic dermatitis and eczema in children.
Product Range:
NutraHealthyGut Everyday: A potent combination of prebiotics and probiotics forming a powerful synbiotic blend. With 40 billion colony forming units (CFU) of Lactobacillus and Bifidobacterium strains, NutraHealthyGut Everyday addresses various gastrointestinal issues, restores intestinal balance, reduces diarrhea and constipation, enhances digestion, improves nutrient absorption, alleviates lactose malabsorption, and boosts natural resistance to infections.
NutraHealthyGut Advance: Elevates gut health with 80 billion CFU from at least 11 probiotic strains, effective against moderate to severe GI disorders like IBS and IBD. It also contains lutein-a type of vitamin called a carotenoid which is related to beta-carotene and vitamin A to support good eyesight.
NutraHealthyGut Kids: Specifically formulated for children, this product combines prebiotics and probiotics in a convenient powder form, offering 6 billion CFU from at least 10 probiotic strains. It treats diarrhea, constipation, bloating, and indigestion while maintaining healthy gut flora and preventing allergies and eczema.
