Whilst hoping to enjoy the third act of life with their adult children, Stan and Joy’s dream is quickly shattered when a wounded girl (Georgia Flood, American Princess) comes knocking at the door. When Joy goes missing soon after, the family are forced to pull apart their ‘picture-perfect’ past to discover what dark truths lie within it.

Longtime gay ally and Australian pop princess Dannii Minogue is back for a second series of I Kissed a Boy, and the third in the franchise. As the UK’s first ever LGBTQIA+ dating show I Kissed a… has seen huge success, providing a healthy mix of drama, heartfelt conversations, and LGBTQIA+ education.

Motherland asks the question "can we have it all?" and the answer appears to be no. Modern motherhood is examined and the middle-class mothers at the centre of the BBC comedy never get a moment of peace, whether they're faced with nit outbreaks, charity fundraisers or catchment areas. 

Ranganathan first began his misadventures when his producers challenged him to step out of his holiday comfort zone back in 2018, where he travelled to Haiti. Through three series of The Misadventures of Romesh Ranganathan, he has travelled to some of the most naturally beautiful, but sometimes misunderstood places including Bosnia, Zimbabwe and Columbia.

Special guest for the evening was Harry Coventry, a former BBC cameraman who worked on MCR21 at Wembley when Geoff Hurst’s hat-trick won England the World Cup and at Churchill’s funeral. He recalled the excitement and emotion of the 1966 final, and operating a camera on top of St Paul’s overlooking the funeral procession.

To have had one BBC career as distinguished as that of Sir Paul Fox would have been remarkable – Editor of Grandstand, Editor of Panorama and one of the most successful Controllers of BBC One ever (1967-73), who launched shows such as Dad’s Army, The Generation Game, The Two Ronnies and Parkinson. But to have had two – he left Television Centre in 1973 to put Yorkshire Television on the map, but returned in 1988 to become Managing Director of BBC Television – was, by any standards, an extraordinary achievement.

New images from the show have also been released by the broadcaster.

The show reimagines the famous detective as a younger Detective Sergeant. When his veteran brother Michael turns to crime in order to provide for his family, John Rebus begins to question the role the law plays in modern-day Scotland.

The free service allows its users to stream live channels through smart TVs, without the need for an aerial or dish. Viewers are also able to watch on-demand content from the UK’s biggest broadcasters.

As was previously announced, Hisense will be the first smart TV partner for the service, and begins selling Freely smart TVs today (30^th April).

Freely represents the first collaboration between Britain’s four public service broadcasters, in an effort to futureproof live TV in the age of streaming.

The show centres around the clubs and nightlife of 1918 Soho. Men are returning from World War I, and finding women back home far more independent than when they left them.

Each of the six episodes follows all types of people caught in the tangle of clubland. There’s single mum Kate Galloway, played by Julianne Nicholson (Mare of Easttown), who sets up a nightclub to provide for her daughter, Evie (Eilidh Fisher). Billie Cassidy (Umi Myers) is a dancer, whose life is turned upside down by Kate.

End of Summer stars Julia Ragnarsson, who Swedish thriller fans may recognise from The Bridge. The series begins in 1984, on the disappearance of a five-year-old boy named Billy that devastates his family.

20 years later, a chance meeting between Billy’s sister Vera (Ragnarsson) and a strangely familiar man (Erik Enge, The Sandhamn Murders), leads her to question the truth surrounding the case.
