The six-part series will pick up after the end of series eight, where Jenny (Fay Ripley) prepared herself for the rest of her cancer treatment with husband Pete (John Thomson) by her side.

David (Robert Bathurst) was slowly rebuilding his life after becoming homeless, while Adam (James Nesbitt) and Karen (Hermione Norris) were coming to terms with their new romantic relationship and the impact it had on the rest of the group.

Give me the child for his first seven years, and I will give you the man.” This nature-nurture Jesuit maxim has been the lodestone of the legendary documentary series Up since it began in 1964.

Originally intended by Granada as a one-off, Seven Up! looked at the lives of a group of seven-year-olds from a variety of social backgrounds and areas of the UK, breaking convention by interviewing just the children.

It’s 4pm on a Friday afternoon, a time of the week when most of us are preparing to wind down the working week. Not Gurinder Chadha, co-creator and director of ITV’s new period drama, Beecham House, otherwise known as “Downton in Delhi”.

She’s at work in a Soho edit suite, putting the finishing touches to another project, her latest movie, Blinded by the Light. The film is based on journalist and broadcaster Sarfraz Manzoor’s memoir, Greetings from Bury Park.

The four-part series explores the complexity of family dynamics and modern relationships, focusing on three adult siblings, Jake (Russell Tovey), Helen (Claudie Blakley) and Natalie (Lydia Leonard).

When the sibling's recently widowed mother, Vivien (Francesca Annis), declares she is in love with a new man, Mark (Stephen Rea), the family is thrown into turmoil.

Jake, Helen and Natalie's suspicions are raised, with the arrival of Mark threatening not only the large family home overlooking the Sussex coast, but also their inheritance and many happy childhood memories.

In March 2018, CBeebies pulled off a spectacular staging of The Tempest, a pacy version that preserved all the best “O brave new world” lines, while gripping its audience of under-sevens.

The six-part drama follows Lowe as he lands in Boston, Lincolnshire, along with his troubled 14-year-old daughter Kelsey, both whom are running from a painful past.

The new move is anything but easy, as the trailer shows Lowe struggling to win the trust of the local community, his own frustrations bubbling over as he curses what he calls a “godforsaken cabbage patch”.
