The best of The Telegraph's articles, sent by the Editor

Dear reader,
As the A-level grading debacle unravels, you can keep up to date with the latest developments – and the potential solution – in our liveblog. Meanwhile, the “failing” Public Health England is set to be scrapped and replaced by a new German-style pandemic response agency, The Telegraph can disclose. The new body is due to be set up by early next month, in time for the feared surge in coronavirus cases this autumn. Read our exclusive story here.
As the country marked the commemoration of VJ Day, the Duke of Edinburgh's biographer charted the Prince’s own wartime experiences, including rescuing stricken Allied troops from the shark-infested Java Sea. It's a fascinating read.
Ruth Jones chose a different direction to that of her Gavin & Stacey co-creator James Corden; a quieter life in Wales compared to star-spangled LA. In an interview with Louise Gannon, Jones said she would never want what Corden has. This is how she has found her own success and contentment in her 50s.
And in the summer of 1987, a media storm rocked Margaret Thatcher's government when the police arrested, charged, and abruptly released four men involved in an alleged plot to kidnap the future president of South Africa. It was one of the strangest espionage incidents of the late Cold War, and now, a new investigation asks if the mysterious Frank Larsen was a fraudster or a fall guy?
