description: How to catch up in the UK.
encoded: The Handmaid's Tale season 6 is in full swing on Hulu in the US, with the finale now fast approaching. Adapted from Margaret Atwood 1985 novel of the same name, the series charts the horrors of Gilead, a fictional and dystopian version of the United States where fertile women are assigned to bear children for elite couples who aren't able to conceive. However, over the course of the previous five seasons, the Handmaids have certainly resisted, and this comes to a head in the sixth and final season, which depicts the greatest rebellion against Gilead yet. Ahead of the final episode, June actor Elisabeth Moss — who also directed the opening and final episodes of season 6 — spoke to IndieWire about leaving the show behind. “It has not been a part of my life; this show has been my life for the last nine years — more than anyone will ever know," she said. Meanwhile, speaking about her directing duties, she added: "It’s an incredible honor. Literally, once a day, I would be, like, 'I cannot believe they’re letting me direct the finale of this series.' [Laughing] There’s so many great directors out there, so the fact that I got to do it, I just never got used to it." Wondering when the finale will be released in the UK? Read on for everything you need to know about how to watch The Handmaid's Tale on our shores. Where to watch The Handmaid's Tale in the UK The finale might be approaching on Hulu in the US, but the schedule is quite a bit further behind in the UK. UK fans will have to wait until 5th July for the finale. That's because season 6 first became available to watch on Channel 4 and Prime Video in the UK from Saturday 3rd May, with new episodes are dropping weekly from then on on Saturdays at 9pm. If you want to watch the show without the ads on Prime Video, you'll need an Amazon Prime subscription, which will cost you £9.99 per month.

description: The top award-winning foreign dramas on the Channel 4 offshoot.
encoded: Fans of foreign-language dramas don't need to look too far to find their next bold, refreshing drama – Channel 4's offshoot streaming service Walter Presents is full of them. Walter Presents launched back in 2016 and is an on-demand platform featuring a hand-picked selection of award-winning foreign-language dramas, curated by Walter Iuzzolino. Iuzzolino is an Italian TV producer who considers three criteria when making his choices: the shows must have had mainstream success in their home countries; they must have outstanding writing, acting and directing; and they must have been critically acclaimed. "It's a balance of being innovative so we never become repetitive, but also to bring viewers what they love," Iuzzolino tells us. "I knew there were thousands of great shows all over the world that were not being shown because there was that subtitle stigma. "Walter Presents is like opening the club. The more people love it, the more people will talk about it. It's a bit of a mission to ensure that as many people as possible get to appreciate the joys of international drama." Iuzzolino says that Italy, France and Eastern Europe are the places to look out for when it comes to new drama, and that Dutch series, like The Adulterer, are consistently ranking highly. "It's like going on a sexy city break without leaving your sofa," he adds. "Access to a different culture is also a nice counterpoint to all the tension and bad feeling that is in our world today. It encourages tolerance, open-mindedness and understanding of the other." From hit German cold-war drama Deutschland 89, which the service launched with, and supernatural Italian series The Red Door to Ukraine's Hide and Seek (Pryatki), here are our picks of the best shows available to stream right now on Walter Presents. You're bound to find something you like.

description: The period comedy-drama is back on Channel 4.
encoded: The Great season 3 is now streaming on Channel 4, with star Adam Godley teasing an exciting new character making their debut in the final batch of episodes. The period comedy-drama stars Elle Fanning and Nicholas Hoult as Catherine the Great and Peter III respectively, charting the former's rise from outsider to one of the longest-serving rulers of Russia. Godley co-stars as Archbishop Samsa (aka Archie), the pious patriarch of Peter III's court, and spoke to RadioTimes.com about what fans can expect from the final 10 episodes. "I can’t spoil [but] there is a pretty fabulous, unexpected new character coming in," he teased. "There are some smaller new characters coming in. I know we had Gillian Anderson last season. "I think we’re having somebody who people will be pretty excited about." The Great was cancelled by US streaming service Hulu several months after its third season debuted across the pond, but Godley appeared confident that fans would be satisfied with the conclusion. "I think we’re consolidating the characters that are there," he continued. "I think there are some huge surprises in season 3 – absolute left-field kind of [makes explosion noise] for the audience... it will be interesting to see how it all plays out." Speaking to Radio Times magazine, The Great star Fanning said: "I do feel the pressure of wanting season 3 to live up to what people want it to be – but to still be surprising. It has to still have a shock value. And I think it will." The actor, who has earned an Emmy nomination for her performance as Catherine, went on to tease that season 3 finds her monarch still in the midst of a "very complicated and very messy" romance with Peter. "What do we do? Are we able to sustain this relationship? It seems like we are drawn to each other, and kind of made for each other in a lot of odd ways, and we can’t help this connection and kind of electricity that we have together. "But is it just doomed?" You can find the answer by tuning into The Great on …

The show stars The Boys and Star Trek: Lower Decks star Jack Quaid as a young Superman, who is working on becoming an established hero in Metropolis while also juggling his busy civilian life. The first season saw Clark Kent cross paths with the love of his life, Daily Planet journalist Lois Lane (Zoey's Extraordinary Playlist star Alice Lee), and his most trusted pal, photographer Jimmy Olsen (Jury Duty's Ishmel Sahid). But there are no shortage of villains cropping up too, from arch-nemesis Lex Luthor (Max Mittelman) to mercenary Deathstroke (Chris Parnell) and even the eccentric Mister Mxyzptlk (David Errigo Jr). Season 2 looks only to build on the momentum of the first, with more breathtaking animation in store from South Korea's Studio Mir. Here's everything you need to know about how to watch My Adventures with Superman in the UK.

encoded: Warning: This article contains spoilers for the Hunted 2024 finale. Channel 4 competition Hunted has crowned this year's winners after the series drew to a dramatic close tonight following weeks of nerve-shredding tension. The series puts ordinary people in the shoes of most-wanted fugitives, tasking them with trying to outrun an elite team of Hunters in the process. There were 12 contestants at the start of the series, but going into tonight's final just four remained – mother and son Sade and Cameron, and brother and sister Jaxon and Nicola – who all had to try and evade capture for three more days to reach the extraction point. But early on in the episode, Cameron was captured after he and Sade split up. There were then multiple close calls for Sade, Jaxon and Nicola, who had to trek to the top of a fell to reach the extraction point. An intense chase ensued, with Sade slipping behind, but in the end all three contestants managed to escape in the plane, meaning they all won a share of the £100,000 prize money. "To win, as a trans man, I feel like I've shown people if you are born in the wrong body, your life isn't over," said Jaxon. "You're still the same soul." "To win with Jax means the world to me," added Nicola. "He is a new person." And it was bittersweet for Sade. "I'd have loved for Cameron to be next to me," she explained. "Nothing at all is bigger than a mother's love. I needed to win for Cameron. It's absolutely changed our lives for ever." Hunted airs on Channel 4.

description: The Channel 4 programme will offer an insight into the jury system.
encoded: Ever wondered whether you can trust our justice system? Well, upcoming Channel 4 programme The Jury: Murder Trial will examine this very issue by re-enacting, word for word, a real murder trial at a disused courthouse in Essex. The jurors know it’s a fake trial being re-enacted for TV, but what they don’t know is that there is an entire other 12-person jury recreating the trial in a room next door. Of course, the crucial question will be: will the two different juries reach the same verdict? And if not, well, what does that say about our jury system? If you're wondering which true case the two juries will hear, then read on for everything you need to know about the Channel 4 legal experiment. What is The Jury: Murder Trial? Legal experiment explained The Jury: Murder Trial will re-stage an entire, real murder trial from the original transcripts in front of 24 jurors to see if they can reach the same verdict when shown the same evidence. The case itself involves John Risedale (played by Sam Alexander), who killed his wife by attacking her with a hammer. He maintains that he "lost control" and is, therefore, not guilty of murder – but will the jurors believe his version of events? Andy Vasey and Dan Warner, Creative Directors, 4creative, said: "The show is an innovative true crime experiment that gives the public an insight into the British jury system. "Our campaign spotlights how, for example, a juror being hungover or tired might be as likely to sway a verdict as the facts of the case. "With one trial and two juries, it's fascinating to see whether the same verdict will be reached by both." When is The Jury: Murder Trial on TV? The Jury: Murder Trial will air on Monday 26th February at 9pm on Channel 4. View Green Video on the source website The Jury: Murder Trial will air on Monday 26th February at 9pm on Channel 4.

description: Hollyoaks is no longer airing in its 6:30pm slot on Channel 4.
encoded: It’s been a dramatic week so far on Hollyoaks, with Monday night’s (15th January) hour-long special leaving multiple characters dead following a fatal multi-car collision. Tuesday night’s (16th January) episode then followed, airing a shock twist for Mercedes McQueen as she received huge news. But fans trying to tune into the recent episodes will have noticed that Channel 4 has cut the popular soap from its weekly schedule. So, if you’re wondering why Hollyoaks isn’t airing in its 6:30pm slot on Channel 4, where it has been since the show started in 1995, then read on for everything you need to know. How to watch Hollyoaks online The long-running soap changed its release pattern back in September 2023. Previously, episodes of Hollyoaks had premiered on E4, with each episode subsequently being broadcast on Channel 4 the following day. However, episodes of Hollyoaks are now available to watch on Channel 4’s website the day before airing on the E4 channel. Meanwhile, screenings on Channel 4 are no longer airing the following day. Instead, in a UK soap first, episodes now go on on YouTube a week after their streaming and the E4 broadcast. However, Hollyoaks hasn’t left Channel 4 completely, and the Sunday omnibus edition is still being broadcast on Channel 4, enabling fans to catch up on all the week’s action from the village. Why has Hollyoaks been taken off Channel 4? The long-running soap changed its release strategy to prioritise online streaming and target the show’s younger demographic. Channel 4’s chief content officer Ian Katz said back in September: “Hollyoaks has always been the youngest and most innovative soap so it’s fitting that it should be the first to embrace the changes in the behaviour of younger viewers and switch to a genuinely digital-led release pattern."

description: With Made in Chelsea: Corsica now over, when can we expect to go back to SW3?
encoded: We've had a jam-packed Made in Chelsea roster so far in 2023, with season 25 wrapping up earlier this year in May, followed swiftly by the arrival of Made in Chelsea: Corsica. In the summer-themed spin-off of the original series, the wealthy Londoners were whisked away to the French island for sun, sea and scandals aplenty. Friendships were broken, new relationships formed and romances were left on the rocks with the likes of Sam Prince, Yasmine Zweegers and Tristan Phipps just one part of the juicy action this season. Airing across consecutive nights in a single week, the Corsica-set series has gone down in the show's history as one of the most chaotic. But now that's it's wrapped up, viewers are undoubtedly left wondering what's to come for the MiC cast when they touch back down in London. So, when can we expect more Made in Chelsea on our screens? Read on for everything we know so far about season 26. Will there be a Made in Chelsea season 26? Yes! Prior to the MiC: Corsica finale airing on E4, many of the Made in Chelsea cast had made reference in interviews to a brand new season to come... so we know it's happening, it's just a matter of when. Our appetites were whetted by an action-packed teaser for the next season that aired following the final Corsica episode. Made in Chelsea season 26 release date Made in Chelsea returns for its 26th season on Monday 9th October at a later time of 10pm, following Married at First Sight UK. Who will be in the Made in Chelsea season 26 cast? The storylines for many of the Made in Chelsea cast were left rather open after the Corsica season so we're sure many of main group will return for season 26. We'd expect season 26 to tackle the major elephant in the room regarding Sam Prince and Yasmine Zweeger's future together and how that fairs with Sam's friend Tristan Phipps. Although she's broken up with Tristan, we'd expect no-nonsense Liv Bentley to return for season 26, no doubt giving many the reality check they need and also l…

description: The new instalment of Made in Chelsea couldn't come soon enough...
encoded: It's safe to say that Made in Chelsea: Corsica most definitely brought the drama, with fallouts, break-ups and surprise relationships providing much of the chaos. With the new holiday-themed spin-off show now having wrapped up, fans needn't worry about the return of the original series, as season 26 is most definitely in the pipeline – and it only looks set to continue the drama, as revealed in the first look trailer. Debuting at the end of the final Made in Chelsea: Corsica episode, the season 26 snippet teased what's to come soon with the fallout from Corsica still making waves in the tight-knit SW3 circle. One of the main cliffhangers from Corsica is the future of Sam Prince and Yasmine Zweegers, after their surprise admission of feelings left Inga Valentina and co reeling. While it's clear they've continued dating back in Chelsea, things don't look all that bright for the pair in one of the trailer's clips. Tristan Phipps confronts Sam about the fact that after leaving Corsica for two days and having had a fling with Yas, he's surprised by Sam's actions as a best friend and business partner. But Sam admits he thinks Tristan is "milking" the situation, which only adds fuel to the fire... But in a more surprising turn of events, Inga confronts Sam about liking a six-month-old picture of them kissing and refers to it as "odd" in front of Yas and David "Temps" Templer. When Temps and Inga leave, Yas simply says to Sam: "I feel like an absolute idiot" before walking away from Sam, with his head in his hands. Talk about drama! Things also look rocky for couple Robbie Mullett and Joel Mignot as Robbie confesses he developed feelings for Geronimo Mörtl after the trio's dalliances in Corsica.

Is Faking Hitler based on a true story? Hitler Diaries hoax explained

description: The true crime drama has earned critical acclaim.
encoded: An extraordinary real-life forgery serves as the inspiration for the latest European drama to join the Walter Presents library on All 4. Faking Hitler chronicles how a con man duped Stern, a prominent German magazine, into purchasing and publishing what were believed to be the personal diaries of the Nazi dictator. However, in an embarrassing public scandal, these were exposed as fakes produced by counterfeiter Konrad Kujau. Kujau was born in Germany in 1938 and raised under the Nazi regime, becoming a genuine believer in its fascist ideology. In the years after World War II, he turned to a life of petty crime, fleeing from East Germany to West when authorities issued an arrest warrant for his theft of a microphone from a youth club. From then, he developed an interest in counterfeiting, creating a new identity for himself which was ultimately detected, landing him in prison as a result. By the 1970s, Kujau was a free man once more and visiting relatives in East Germany when he discovered many of them still held Nazi memorabilia, despite this being strictly prohibited by the communist government. There was a more flexible policy in West Germany, where the very same items were fetching high prices among collectors. Spying a money-making opportunity, he began smuggling the memorabilia from the East to West and selling them for a profit, which was a business that put him in contact with fellow Nazi enthusiasts. Kujau inflated the value of his stock by forging documents claiming they belonged to prominent members of the Nazi regime. After years of successfully scamming collectors, he decided to escalate the con, setting about producing the long-rumoured secret diaries of Adolf Hitler. Though it remains uncertain if such documents ever existed, some have speculated that they could have been aboard a downed plane that fled Berlin during Operation Seraglio. The purpose of the plan was to evacuate Hitler's most trusted allies from the frontlines as Russian forces closed in …

Why the ending of Channel 4's Consent is so disturbing

description: The one-off drama details a chilling reality for girls and young women.
encoded: This article contains discussion of topics including rape that some readers may find upsetting. Channel 4's Consent is a one-off drama that was created in response to a chilling report released in June 2021. The Office for Standards in Education (Ofsted) found that '59 per cent of girls and young women aged 13-21 have been subjected to sexual harassment at school or college', with independent schools, like the fictional sixth form featured in Consent, regularly mentioned in the review. And to heap misery upon misery, many of those girls and young women haven't spoken out against or reported their trauma because it's considered "a normal experience". When you're juggling both academic and social pressures, taking on an endeavour as all-consuming and high-risk as toppling the patriarchy can often be a bridge too far. But in Emma Dennis-Edwards's drama, one victim of sexual violence does stick her head above the parapet. Scholarship student Natalie, who is part of the first wave of female students to be admitted into the previously all-male college, is raped by her classmate Archie at his 18th birthday party. The pair enjoyed a fun, flirty relationship prior to that night, but his actions, which also included filming the rape and sharing the footage with his friends, put a swift end to that. There are three strands to Natalie's ordeal: the rape itself, the identity of the perpetrator, and Archie's insistence that he's not guilty of the crime he's committed. "I would never hurt anyone, ever," he says to his sister, his tone genuine, his cheeks tear-stained. He's entirely in denial. The reality doesn't chime with his sense of self; and it doesn't align with his perception of what it means to be a rapist. And therein lies the crux of Consent. Natalie evidently had a crush on Archie and would have admitted it freely to anyone who asked, but at no point did she agree to have sex with him. Those words were never spoken. She didn't say yes. Archie, however, had interpreted he…

Now just three bakers remain in the Great British Bake Off 2022 line-up with the hopes of being crowned this year's winner. Still in the running to take home the coveted glass cake stand is Sandro – a 30-year-old nanny who has served up some of the judges' favourite bakes over the course of the competition. Sandro will compete against Abdul and Syabira, who fans have predicted will win Bake Off this year. Despite the tough competition, Sandro wasn't nervous for the final, saying: "Approaching the finals I didn’t feel that nervous, to be honest. I have dreamed of being in the finals more than I have being in the tent. "It was always a goal for me so I felt super proud to have got far, and from there I just wanted to enjoy the last few moments of my dream. I went into the finals with the aim of enjoying myself, it did feel like just three buddies in a tent baking for the last time." So, does Sandro have what it takes to crowned the Great British Bake Off 2022 winner? Here's everything you need to know about him. Who is Sandro?

Sandro first turned to baking as a form of therapy after his father passed away was he was 21. He now runs virtual baking classes for children with autism. Sandro says he can sometimes be "a bit too ambitious with" his bakes, but will that ambition pay off when he's in the tent? He lives and breathes baking and likes to infuse his bakes with flavours from his Angolan heritage, including paprika paired with tangy cheese, and sweet bakes smothered in sticky dulce de leche.

This Tuesday (15th November), the final three contestants in the Great British Bake Off 2022 line-up will go head-to-head as they take on the last three challenges. One of those bakers is Syabira, who has managed to bag Star Baker three times in a row during season 13. She'll compete against Sandro and Abdul, after last week's show saw Janusz bow out of the competition. "I was very sad to see Janusz leave. I lost my only tequila buddy in the tent. We all went for dinner that night trying not to discuss about the leaving. He was upset, but he put on a very brave face and gave me a pep talk for the final," Syabira said. While we won't find out who this year's winner is until the finale airs, Syabira is a firm-favourite to take home the coveted glass cake stand. In an exclusive RadioTimes.com poll, 78 per cent of fans predicted that she'll win this year's show, and in his latest column, reigning Bake Off champ Giuseppe Dell'Anno backed her, saying: "I think that they all have what it takes to be a winner. "However, looking back, Syabira has probably been the best performing of the three overall, and I hope that the final result will give her credit for that. But, in the tent, everybody starts from scratch every week, so literally anything can happen!" And she's feeling very confident ahead of the final, saying: "Regardless of the outcome, I couldn’t wait to finish the showstopper to see the other bakers' cakes, my partner (Bradley), his family and my friends." So, could Syabira be this year's Bake Off champ? Here's everything you need to know about her ahead of tonight's final. Who is Syabira?

The UK public service broadcaster, which celebrates its 40th birthday today (2nd November 2022), was previously known as 4oD, but was renamed All4 in 2015. The new rebranding, which will begin from spring 2023, is to “help audiences better navigate the abundance of choice in the digital world and find their favourite Channel 4 shows wherever and whenever they choose to watch content,” Channel 4 explained in a statement. “All4 will change to ‘Channel 4' as Channel 4 becomes the first UK broadcaster to adopt one brand identity across its digital and linear channels as audiences increasingly no longer distinguish between digital and linear content," it continued. "Channel 4’s entire portfolio of channels will also align with the Channel 4 brand.” Zaid Al-Qassab, chief marketing officer at Channel 4, said: "As Channel 4 turns 40, we’re responding to the challenge of an increasingly crowded content market by using our most powerful asset, the Channel 4 brand." He added: "The creation of a singular brand vision will better serve our viewers and help futureproof the channel to make sure we’re able to continue to take creative risks for the next 40 years. We want to become the viewers’ North Star in the digital world. A valued curator to help them navigate to a destination full of entertaining and thoughtful content they know they can trust." The brand transformation comes as Channel 4 faces an uncertain future, with new UK Prime Minister Rishi Sunak having pledged to push ahead with the privatisation of the service, a move set in motion by former Culture Secretary Nadine Dorries back in April. View oEmbed on the source website In a statement at the time, Dorries said: "Channel 4 rightly holds a cherished place in British life and I want that to remain the case.

Put together by the Married at First Sight UK experts, the 2022 cast line-up started off with eight couples before gaining two more – however there are just five left in the experiment. Yesterday's episode (11th Oct) saw Adrian Sanderson and Thomas Hartley bow out after deciding to split amicably, leaving Chanita and Jordan, Zoe Clifton and Jenna Robinson and George and April on the show. But are George and April still together? Here's everything we know so far. Who is April? Age: 32 Job: Dress designer Location: London Instagram: @aprilbanbury Dress designer April is used to making wedding gowns for other people but hasn't yet worn her own, joking that she's "always the bridal designer, never the bride". A former Miss Great Britain, April is ready to put her love life in the hands of the MAFS UK experts. Driven and ambitious, April won't stop until she succeeds in anything she does and considers herself to be a positive and bubbly social butterfly. She's looking for someone who won't mind her being independent and wants to live life to its fullest with her, saying: "The experts have a great success rate, so I feel like I've got nothing to lose and potentially a lot to gain." Who is George? Age: 40 Job: Financial advisor Location: Worcester Instagram: @george__roberts__ Father-of-four George is a true romantic who is looking for someone emotionally open to keep him on his toes.

One of the largest characters on this season of MAFS UK has been Thomas – the mental health care assistant from Liverpool who was partnered up with fan favourite digital designer Adrian. While it hasn't been an easy journey for the pair, who've given viewers their fair dose of drama, Adrian and Thomas managed to make it to the last episodes of the 2022 series – but are they still on the show? Here's everything you need to know about Married At First Sight UK couple Thomas and Adrian. Who is Thomas? Age: 31 Job: Mental health care assistant Location: Liverpool Instagram: @thomashartleyofficial Bursting with energy, sarcasm and bawdy humour, 31-year-old Thomas is looking for his match. He's extremely sociable, unapologetically loud and not one to back down in an argument, with his worst nightmare being for someone to describe him as "nice". While he's used to having all eyes on him when he enters a room, he's looking for a partner to help balance him out. "I'm really concerned they might not like me," he said. "That's OK, but I don't want to waste their time or my own time." Who is Adrian?

After being a serial dater for the last three years, he's looking to settle down with an upbeat and positive partner who'll make him laugh, be up for an adventure and be someone he can trust.

One of those couples within the Married at First Sight cast is Chanita and Jordan, the duo who started off their MAFS journey as one of the most likely to stick together. After a lovely wedding and a fun honeymoon, the pair joined the rest of the Married at First Sight UK couples for a series of dinner parties and commitment ceremonies and while they've dealt with their fair share of drama, they're still going strong on the show. But have they stuck together since filming ended? Here's everything we know so far about Married At First Sight UK couple Chanita and Jordan ahead of Monday's reunion episode. Who is Chanita? Age: 29 Job: Social worker Location: Derby Instagram: @chanita__x A caring, loyal and protective social worker, Chanita has dedicated her life to helping young people. After being in a 10-year relationship two years ago, she is now ready to find her future partner. "It's so hard to pick out the right people, so I thought why not give the experts a challenge and they can do all the hard work for me," she said. Who is Jordan? Age: 29 Job: Account manager Location: Darlington Instagram: @jordanemmettconnelly A fun, outgoing guy, Darlington-based Jordan considers himself a "great catch" with a good job, a close relationship with his family and cooking skills. The 29-year-old is looking to find true love and a real connection, but has found previously that he can be too particular about what he wants.

description: As expected, the new series leaves fans with more questions than answers. **WARNING: Contains spoilers for DHMIS finale**
encoded: Since becoming a viral sensation more than a decade ago, Don't Hug Me I'm Scared has never failed to generate wild speculation on its hidden meaning – and that tradition continues with its Channel 4 return. At the end of a blisteringly funny (and occasionally haunting) season, creators Joe Pelling, Becky Sloan and Baker Terry craft a gripping finale, which peels back a new layer of the DHMIS universe. After getting some long overdue replacement batteries, Yellow Guy suddenly becomes the most intelligent character in the show and goes on a journey through the upper levels of his nightmarish home. The creative team have long said they would never confirm exactly what's going on in their surreal horror-comedy, but they did offer some insight into the finale's key moments during an exclusive interview with RadioTimes.com. Read on for what they had to say, but be warned that major spoilers follow from this point on. Who is the woman in the house? Yellow Guy's unnerving journey through his disorienting home sees him encounter older versions of his pals Red Guy and Duck, before arriving on a level inhabited by a strange woman, named Lesley in the credits (played by Vivienne Soan). Intriguingly, there are hints that she could be controlling what happens to our long-suffering trio, as she owns both a dollhouse that reflects the events of the show and an enormous book that she promises contains answers. However, co-creator Joe Pelling tells fans that much uncertainty remains over who is really pulling the strings in Don't Hug Me I'm Scared, explaining that they "didn't want to put a full stop on it". He posed the question: "Is there someone in charge of her?" Of course, many will be wondering who Lesley is, but another valid question is what she is. At first glance, she appears to be the closest thing to a "real person" that DHMIS has seen to date, but that's not necessarily how the creators envisaged her. "I don't even know if I see her as a human," said Pelling. Becky Sloan…

description: The internet phenomenon is back with an all-new series on Channel 4.
encoded: What's your favourite idea? Mine is a psychological horror comedy with puppets riffing on vintage children's television. I'm not alone in that, either, as proven by the astronomical success of Don't Hug Me I'm Scared on YouTube, where it has racked up more than 280 million views since debuting in 2011. The fever dream show follows Red Guy, Yellow Guy and Duck as they are taught a series of harrowing life lessons on topics ranging from time to love and technology to dieting. Running through all the episodes are hints towards an overarching story that fans have meticulously combed through, dreaming up a huge stack of theories on what might be going on and why. They've had little new material to mull over during a six-year hiatus, but Don't Hug Me I'm Scared is finally back, this time on television, courtesy of Channel 4 and taking an expanded 25-minute format to boot. "I suppose it's a harder sell than a normal show, considering we haven't made a TV show before and it's quite unusual," co-creator Joe Pelling told RadioTimes.com on shopping the series. "It's not for everyone, I suppose. And I think we were very lucky to pitch it to Channel 4 at the right time and they seemed to get it. Not everyone we pitched it to 'got it' and I think the phrase they came back with was it was 'quite specific'. So maybe that's a euphemism for 'it’s too weird and we don't like it'." Or perhaps a ruder word beginning with 's', speculates Baker Terry, a writer on the original DHMIS and co-creator of the television version, along with a returning Becky Sloan. The show was picked up by Channel 4 in July 2020, but the hard work was far from over. Now, the trio had to crack how to expand on their "four-minute little musical number" to fill a block of terrestrial programming. Pelling continued: "It being its own strange thing works on the internet, but you've got to find a reason for these stories to work over half an hour. So I think, for us, we needed to dig into the characters a bit more an…

description: The new season will debut on Channel 4 and Amazon Prime Video at the same time.
encoded: Channel 4 has confirmed that The Handmaid's Tale season 5 will begin airing on the channel later this month – at the same time as it debuts on Amazon Prime Video. Channel 4 has debuted each of the previous four seasons in the UK, but following Amazon's takeover of MGM – which produces the show – the two have now agreed to share premiere rights. The fifth season of the hit drama is currently underway on Hulu in the United States, and although an exact date has not yet been given for the UK premiere, it will be reassuring for fans to know it's not too far away. "Over the series, The Handmaid’s Tale has remained reflective, high quality and hard-hitting," Channel 4's head of acquisitions Nick Lee said in announcing the news. "We’re thrilled Channel 4 and All4 audiences will be returning to Gilead to see further justice dispensed in the next riveting instalment.” The series – which is adapted from Margaret Atwood's classic novel of the same name – first debuted in 2017 and has enjoyed consistently strong reviews ever since, winning a total of 15 Emmy Awards from 75 nominations. It tells the story of life in the dystopian Gilead, a totalitarian society in what was formerly the United States, as Offred/June (Elizabeth Moss) struggles to survive as a reproductive surrogate for a powerful Commander and his resentful wife. View oEmbed on the source website According to Channel 4, the latest season will see June face the consequences of killing Commander Waterford (played by Joseph Fiennes) while struggling to redefine her identity and purpose. Meanwhile, the widowed Serena (Yvonne Strahovski) attempts to raise her profile in Toronto as Gilead’s influence creeps into Canada, and Commander Lawrence (Bradley Whitford) works with Aunt Lydia (Ann Dowd) and Nick (Max Minghella) as he tries to reform Gilead and rise in power. All four previous seasons of The Handmaid's Tale are currently streaming on All4, so there's every opportunity to catch-up before the new episodes arrive. Try…

Great British Bake Off 2022 announces elimination twist in episode 3

description: Bread Week took a surprising turn in tonight's episode.
encoded: This week's episode of The Great British Bake Off saw a major twist in its format, as after some seriously impressive performances for Bread Week, no one was sent home from the tent. With Rebs and Abdul both unable to take part in this week's episode due to illness, the tent was already down on numbers. Then, in a big surprise, the judges revealed that due to the high quality seen in this week's bakes, no one would be going home. It's very rare that no one is eliminated in a week on Bake Off, but not unheard of. Seasons 3, 5 and 9 all featured a week where no one was sent home, with multiple eliminations then happening in later weeks. Not all of the Bake Off traditions were switched up this week, of course - there was still a Star Baker announced, with the recognition this week going to Janusz. This is the second time Janusz has been named Star Baker in the three episodes aired so far, marking him out as a serious contender as we head deeper in to the competition. At the beginning of this week's episode, Matt Lucas made the announcement regarding Rebs and Abdul, saying: "Good morning, bakers! Welcome back to the tent. Now, both Rebs and Abdul are a bit under the weather this week." He then said: "But, with your permission we thought we'd send them both straight through to the final", before Noel Fielding added: "Only joking, they're just going to miss a week and hopefully they'll be back next week." Tonight's episode was Bread Week in the tent, with this season having already seen Cake Week in episode 1 and Biscuit Week in episode 2. The Great British Bake Off airs on Channel 4 on Tuesdays at 8pm. Looking for something else to watch? Check out our TV Guide or visit our dedicated Entertainment hub for the latest news.

description: Giuseppe explained what viewers don't see in the Bake Off tent.
encoded: We all know there's a lot that goes on which viewers don't see when it comes to crafting the magic of TV, but now we've been given an exclusive peek behind the scenes of one of the nation's favourite shows - The Great British Bake Off. Last year's winner Giuseppe, who currently has his own RadioTimes.com column reviewing each of the new episodes this season, has explained just how appearing on the show has changed his perspective when watching it. Giuseppe said: "Once you've been on the site, it's like having a new perspective on what you see on TV. You know you’ve been there and feel physically how the site is laid out. So it's almost as if you recognise the spots, you recognise the angles and your brain builds up on the surroundings that others can't see. "Because you know where things are, you know where the trophy is, you know where the camera is. It gives you a bit of a fuller experience by watching live because you've been there and you see things that are not shown in a way." Asked if there was anything audiences don't get to see that is a big part of the show behind the camera, Giuseppe said: "Yes, the sudden cleanliness on the benches from one segment to the other. And I mean, one of the things that never occurred to me as a viewer was the amount of work that goes on in the tent between, you know, wrapping up one bake and judging it." He explained: "Occasionally, there are hours in between them. Obviously you don't see that because it's all a straight, streamlined, and seamless progression to when the judges taste the bakes, but you don't even notice it as a viewer. You just follow the story as they tell it. "But now that I've seen what happens behind closed doors, you spot the fact that one second the tent is a massive mess of cake disruption, with whipped cream in every corner, and the next second the beauty shot shows a pristine tent. "In the meantime is that all the bakers have been kicked out, respectfully by the crew, and we sit on that sofa in the ga…

description: There's not long to wait until we're back in the tent once more.
encoded: It's been a long year waiting for The Great British Bake Off's return to Channel 4, but we now know exactly when the hit baking show will be back on our screens. Channel 4 has confirmed that the show's 13th season will officially start on Tuesday 13th September, airing at 8pm. Judges Prue Leith and Paul Hollywood will be both be back in the tent, as well as presenters Matt Lucas and Noel Fielding. They'll once again be joined by 12 amateur bakers, each hoping to win over the judges with their cakes, biscuits, pastries and more. View oEmbed on the source website If the show follows its usual schedule, the bakers will be whittled down to the final three for week 10, at which point the finalists will battle it out to see whose scone is the one and whose cream is supreme. Last year's season ran from 21st September to 23rd November, with Chigs, Crystelle and Giuseppe making it all the way to the final. In the end, it was Giuseppe who was named Ultimate Star Baker and lifted the glass cake stand. At the time of his win, Giuseppe said: "I feel it’s been a great year for Italy. I truly can’t believe it or take it in, this has made me so incredibly happy to be a Britalian. Dell’Anno is my surname which translates in English to 'of the year' – and I feel this has certainly has been my year." This year's line-up of bakers has yet to be announced, but we're sure more details will be revealed in due to course as we head towards the start date in a couple of weeks.

description: Here's everything you need to know about Married at First Sight UK 2022 couple Whitney and Duka.
encoded: Last night, our first couples from Married at First Sight UK 2022 walked down the aisle, and while Chanita and Jordan appeared to hit it off immediately, the same couldn't be said for Whitney and Duka. Whitney seemed to be unsure about Duka after first laying eyes on him, saying that when compared to the "brickhouse" of a man she wanted, he was more like "a shed". Although they seemed to bond more over their shared family values, it seems as though the road ahead could be bumpy for these two as they make their way through the experiment. Whitney had made clear in her meeting with the other singletons before the wedding that she wouldn't settle for anything less than perfect, but will she change her mind about Duka? And will he be able to move past her initial reaction and behaviour at the wedding? You can find out all about the rest of the Married at First Sight cast and learn about the couples so far here. Meanwhile, here's everything we know so far about Married At First Sight UK couple Whitney and Duka. Who is Whitney? Age: 31 Job: PA Location: St Albans Instagram: @itswhitneyelizabeth St Albans-based PA Whitney isn't short of male attention, but wants a man who ticks all the boxes that she can settle down with. After losing her mother, Whitney has had a tough couple of years and while she's dated men on a superficial level, she's never found anyone good enough to bring home to her family. While Whitney has high expectations for her potential partner, she feels ready to give someone a chance. "I need to get my s**t together and embrace the situation," she told Channel 4. Who is Duka? Age: 31 Job: Recruitment HR coordinator Location: Birmingham Instagram: @dukacav HR coordinator Duka moved to the UK at the age of 10 after fleeing former Yugoslavia with his family to escape conflict.
