The final, which aired on Saturday 14th December, proved to be an emotional watch as all four remaining couples gave their absolute all in a bid to lift the iconic glitter ball.

And what a show it was, with all of them earning at least one perfect score from the judges, who were brought to tears on multiple occasions, before comedian Chris McCausland was crowned the winner alongside Dianne Buswell.

encoded: It's been almost five years since we last travelled to Kalokairi in Mamma Mia! Here We Go Again, and since then rumours have continued to swirl about a possible third film in the series. The most recent update on the film's progress came from Judy Cramer, the creator of the original musical and producer on both previous films, who told Deadline that while there is nothing "official" to announce as of yet, she does have a story in mind and the project is in its "earliest stages". Craymer also teased that Meryl Streep could be back as Donna, despite her character's death between films one and two. But what else do we know about Mamma Mia 3 at this point? Read on for everything you need to know about the potential for a third film in the Mamma Mia franchise. What has been said about Mamma Mia 3? When the second film, Mamma Mia! Here We Go Again, was released in 2018, Amanda Seyfried, Lily James, Pierce Brosnan and Christine Baranski all expressed their interest in returning for another sequel. Here We Go Again goes back in time to when Donna first met the three possible fathers of her daughter Sophie, and James told RadioTimes.com her idea for a follow-up: “We laughed that it could be ‘Mamma Mia! The DNA Test’. You finally find out who the dad is.” View oEmbed on the source website Baranski said she would be up for a third film too, saying: "We’re ready for the next sequel because it’s just so much fun to do." When asked whether she would be on board, Seyfried added: "Oh yeah! Beyond yes." Given that the gap between the first and second films was 10 years, Brosnan quipped that if there’s going to be another movie, "we better make it soon, I think". Later that year, the creator behind the original stage musical and producer on both films Judy Craymer noted the appetite among fans for another film. "I’ve seen on social media somebody saying, 'Please can you make it like Fast & Furious.' We could just keep going. I don’t know," she told RadioTimes.com. And she also echoed…

The Stratford-upon-Avon-based series stars plenty of well-known faces including Mark Benton (Waterloo Road) and Jo Joyner (EastEnders) as well as a myriad of guest stars. Speaking to press recently, Joyner said of her co-star (via ED!): “Mark is an incredibly generous actor with no huge ego. That always makes it easier because you’re on an equal footing."

The new 10-part series will kick off on BBC One on Saturday, 2nd October at 9pm, following the second live show of Strictly Come Dancing. It will see a panel of six celebrities try to fill in the missing blanks over a series of rounds as they try to help win some brilliant prizes for contestants. Celebs this year include: Judy Murray, Rickie Haywood-Williams, Shappi Khorsandi, Rob Beckett, Ellie Taylor and Peter Andre. Walsh is the sixth presenter to host Blankety Blank, following behind Vernon Kay and David Walliams, who each presented specials of the show in 2007 and 2016 respectively. But, who was the original host on the show? And which celebs have fronted Blankety Blank over the years? Read on for all you need to know about the presenters of the iconic gameshow from the late Terry Wogan in the 70s, right down to Paul O'Grady's alter ego Lily Savage. Who was the first host of Blankety Blank? Terry Wogan The late and great Sir Terry Wogan was the pioneering host of Blankety Blank from its conception in 1979. For four years Wogan presented the show, and is remembered for his rather unusual stick-like microphone and his funny failure to keep the guests in check. On one memorable occasion, Kenny Everett bent the mic in half. From this moment on, every time Everett appeared on the show there’d be an attempt to destroy what became known as Wogan’s Wand. View oEmbed on the source website Who were the past presenters of Blankety Blank? Les Dawson When Dawson took over from Wogan in 1984, he triumphantly snapped Wogan's Wand in two, and said he felt “about as comfortable as a lame turkey sat on a pile of paxo listening to Christmas carols”. Blankety Blank was infamous for its awful prizes, and Dawson once quipped: “You are not going away empty handed, you have a map of Penrith!” - he was known for his sarcasm and his deadpan wit.

Although Richard Madden is being kept busy with his new role in Marvel's Eternals, there are still rumours that he'll reprise his role as bodyguard David Budd. In an exclusive interview with RadioTimes.com back in May 2021, Paul Ready, who played the villainous Rob in Bodyguard, said that he'd definitely say yes if asked to appear in a second season. Addressing the rumours, he said: "I loved playing that character. I love playing kind of ambiguous, slightly shady characters like that. "Yeah, it Bodyguard came back and they wanted to write that character again, I'd definitely do it. I thought it was great fun. It was great fun to play. "Jed [Mercurio] is a brilliant writer and obviously, I've just been hooked on Line of Duty. I couldn't have imagined how much it would capture the audience's imagination. They really went for it. A hugely popular show. "People would see me on the tube at the time and they'd go, 'I'm watching Bodyguard, don't tell me! You're that guy but don't tell me whether you did it,' and I loved that." Here’s everything you need to know. Will there be a season 2 of Bodyguard? The Sun reported in 2021 that the BBC would be making a second series of Bodyguard, with Richard Madden set to return as scarred war veteran and protection officer David Budd. "Mercurio has always been too preoccupied with Line of Duty to apply himself to Bodyguard II, and after the show’s success, Madden was snapped up by Hollywood," a source told the publication. "Now with both men available, the creative process has kicked off and the BBC are thrilled it could materialise within the next two years." While the BBC has not yet officially renewed Bodyguard for a second series, writer Jed Mercurio and lead actor Richard Madden are certainly keen for season two to happen. Merc…

The first film in the franchise arrived on the big screen back in 2018, with husband-wife duo John Krasinski and Emily Blunt starring as a couple attempting to survive and keep their family alive in a post-apocalyptic world terrorised by blind monsters with hyper-sensitive hearing abilities. The upcoming sequel will see Blunt, Millicent Simmonds, Noah Jupe and Krasinski reprise their roles from the original, with Peaky Blinders star Cillian Murphy being introduced as a fellow survivor. Read on for all the latest news, release dates and cast announcements around A Quiet Place Part II. When is A Quiet Place 2 released in cinemas?

A Quiet Place 2 cast Emily Blunt reprises her role as mother Evelyn Abbott, alongside original cast members Millicent Simmonds as her deaf daughter Regan and Noah Jupe as her eldest son Marcus. In terms of new faces, Peaky Blinders star Cillian Murphy joins the cast as a rather ominous-sounding man with mysterious intentions who "joins the family unit". Murphy has been keen to avoid revealing any major details about the role to ensure the film packs some surprises, but explained to Total Film how his character fits in this dour vision of the future.

encoded: Marcella season three has introduced us to a whole new version of the beloved character, as she takes on a brand new identity as Keira. The undercover detective returned to our screens in January 2021, three years since UK viewers last saw Marcella on our television screens. The last two episodes of Marcella season three will air Tuesday 2nd March 2021 – the first at 9pm on ITV, and then the second at 10:45pm after the news. In the eight-part season three, Marcella is back, she's blonde, she's bearing that scar, but initially she's almost unrecognisable, on an undercover mission to infiltrate a criminal family in Belfast. All eight episodes of the series will then then be available to view on the ITV Hub. The series stars Anna Friel as a tortured police detective who suffers violent blackouts as a result of her dissociative identity disorder, but that doesn't stop her from going up against some truly twisted killers. The third outing for Marcella is a change of pace from what we've seen before, taking a deeper dive into her complicated psyche and the devastating trauma therein. Season two concluded with a devastating cliffhanger that saw our tortured detective leave her old life behind. "It was intentional to kind of reinvent it," explained Marcella creator Hans Rosenfeldt. "We wanted to do something else, and see if we could reinvent the show, but still kind of make it the third chapter in a trilogy," he told Digital Spy. In season three, Marcella is now operating in Belfast as an undercover detective, but is she enjoying being at the centre of the criminal Maguire family a little too much? As Marcella investigates their activities, questions are raised about how much of her old self she has left behind. Will her past come back to haunt her once again?

encoded: Marcella, the ITV series about a detective who suffers from violent black-outs, is back for a third season - but the show has been reinvented, as the title character (Anna Friel) goes undercover. In season three, Marcella takes on the persona of 'Keira' in order to infiltrate the Maguire crime family, but she begins to enjoy her new luxurious lifestyle a bit too much, and appears to hatch plans to take over the family business. "That’s basically the arc of the show," Friel told Radio.Times.com. "Marcella is much more preferring Keira and I’m not sure if she wants her old life back. I don’t think she thought there was anything redeeming about herself and she has no point to live and that makes her even more fearless. And then she starts to come part of a world and starts to question her own moral compass and integrity." Read on for the cast list and characters in Marcella season three. Anna Friel as DS Marcella Backland Who is Marcella? Marcella is an unrelenting detective who is willing to push boundaries to solve a case, whatever the emotional and relational collateral damage may be. However, following the dramatic revelations from season two, Marcella is now undercover as a new persona, Keira Devlin, and using her character as a means of hiding from her own personal life. Where have I seen Anna Friel before? Friel is a prolific television actress. She rose to fame for her role in the 90s series Brookside, and has more recently starred in The Girlfriend Experience, Broken and American Odyssey. She previously won an Emmy for her portrayal of Marcella.

As the past four seasons have proved, Lucifer Morningstar has no shortage of siblings and every time one of them appears, trouble follows not long after. Michael is the latest to descend to Earth with a mission, plotting to wreck the life that his brother has built in LA by masquerading as him - but will Lucifer's allies spot the deception? It's possible the Detective could spot her longtime partner acting strangely (well, stranger than usual), or perhaps Amenadiel will recognise Michael for who he truly is. Whatever the case, Lucifer has made it quite clear in the past that he despises when people try to impersonate him, so expect him to return to Earth with a furious wrath - as teased in the season five trailer. If all this intrigue wasn't enough, the writers behind Lucifer are attempting some experimental outings in the season to come, including a musical episode and a noir episode homaging classic crime serials.

Her ensuing search for identity will lead her into the heart of the Geist Group, the unconventional wellness company behind the Homecoming Initiative."
