Pinky and Perky make a comeback

Pinky and Perky are the latest classic children's characters to get a 21st-century makeover - a new Pinky & Perky Show comes to CBBC and BBC1 next month.

Dougray Scott heads home

Scottish star Dougray Scott, most recently seen as Susan's amour in Desperate Housewives, returns to these shores for Father and Son, a tough thriller written by Frank Deasy (Prime Suspect: the Final Act and The Passion). The six-part series, filmed in Manchester and Dublin, will be shown on ITV1 next year.
