encoded: We finally know who attacked creepy Mal Roper (Tim Treloar) in Coronation Street - and it's not Bernie Winter-Alahan (Jane Hazlegrove). The two met one another at the Chariot Square Hotel, both drowning their sorrows at the bar before retiring to his bedroom. Bernie ordered drugs, and he tried to make a move on her. She immediately pulled away, asserting that she was committed to husband Dev Alahan (Jimmi Harkishin), and left the room. After continuing the party into the night, she was found passed out in a nightclub toilet. Mal then showed up at Roy's Rolls, having been employed as an electrician to fix some dodgy wiring in the flat above. Bernie was horrified to discover he'd be working alongside her, and made it clear that he should keep his distance. After he bared his soul to her, saying he hadn't forgotten their 'kiss', she warned him to leave or she'd kill him. In true soapy style, he was attacked just hours later. Bernie was arrested, but she protested her innocence. In today's episode, she woke up in a cell and urged son Kit Green (Jacob Roberts) to secure her release. He said that although he wasn't working on the case, he was trying his best to shut down potential leads in her direction. DC Browning wanted to know how she knew Mal, and she accidentally revealed that they'd met one another in the weeks prior to him starting at the cafe. The evidence seemed stacked against her. Kit returned home and confirmed to girlfriend Sarah Platt (Tina O'Brien) that he was the attacker. He'd pushed Mal, who then suffered a heart attack. Sarah urged him to fess up to free Bernie, but he said that he wasn't prepared to put his job on the line and would have to hope that some evidence cropped up to prove she wasn't responsible. Fortunately, CCTV footage from Dev's corner shop showed that she wasn't present at the time of Mal's attack, and she was released. But how long can Kit keep his cover?

encoded: Bear Wolf (Joshua Richards) is spiralling in Emmerdale, as the memory of killing his captor Ray Walters (Joe Absolom) continues to resurface. Poor Bear was enslaved on Ray and Celia Daniels's (Jaye Griffiths) farm for months, and during that time was forced to live and work in squalor. He faced numerous forms of abuse, and had one of the other victims die in his arms. He eventually left the farmhouse, tracking down Ray and throttling him. Son Paddy Dingle (Dominic Brunt) and youngster Dylan Penders (Fred Kettle) were present, and helped to bundle his body into the back of Jai Sharma's (Chris Bisson) van. They then decided to keep Bear hidden from public view, hiding the deep, dark secret. However, this is a soap opera, and he soon confessed everything to a therapist before calling the police to report his crimes. Bear has been bailed, but has continued to feel conflicted over his relationship with Ray. Although he could see that what he did was bad, he couldn't help but feel that he was somewhat of a victim himself. This was further intensified following a conversation with Laurel Thomas (Charlotte Bellamy), who felt the same way. He returned home and smashed a mirror, cutting his hand.

In today's episode, Bear arrived at the hospital and demanded treatment. The nurse assured him that he would get care as soon as possible, but due to the triage system, he'd have to wait. He grew increasingly impatient and student doctor Jacob Gallagher (Joe-Warren Plant) pulled him into a side room to try and give some immediate care to his hand. Bear began to panic, and grabbed Jacob from behind, effectively dealing a wrestling tackle. Jacob fell to the ground in agony, as the hospital security guard ushered Bear into a side room. Paddy a…

encoded: A heated argument has resulted in disaster in Emmerdale, with much-loved character Laurel Thomas (Charlotte Bellamy) being knocked unconscious by her own son, Arthur (Alfie Clarke). But how did they find themselves in such a predicament? Tensions have been boiling between mother and son for weeks. He wasn't impressed by her attitude towards Ray Walters (Joe Absolom) after she discovered he had groomed a number of children into drug dealing and had enslaved workers on his farm. Laurel saw Ray as a victim in his own right, having been brought into the criminal world by the devious Celia Daniels (Jaye Griffiths) as a teenager - but Arthur refused to believe that he could be a good man, and sought revenge. Ultimately, the teenager was overpowered by Ray, but he still managed to steal a bag of cash from his car. He's since used this money to buy a new phone, trainers, and is planning a trip to Australia. When Laurel got wind of his sudden windfall, she was furious. She stole the money back from him, and during a war of words, she slapped him. Arthur then attempted to use this as a way to blackmail his mother, but instantly regretted his words. Things then seemed to go back to normal.

encoded: "With God as my witness, I'll kill you!" Those famous last words from Bernie Winter-Alahan (Jane Hazlegrove) in Coronation Street, just hours before her stalker Mal Roper (Tim Treloar) was attacked, could prove costly. Last month, Bernie headed to the Chariot Square Hotel to drown her sorrows after son-in-law Billy Mayhew's (Daniel Brocklebank) funeral. She met Mal, who was also down in the dumps after learning his wife had been writing to Roy Cropper (David Neilson). He assumed she was having an affair, and decided to play her at the same game by luring Bernie to his bedroom. The pair knocked back drinks, blasted music and ordered drugs. Mal then tried to make a move on Bernie, but after briefly locking lips, she knocked him back. He clearly hadn't forgotten about their wild night, and in recent weeks has made it his mission to impress her. He feigned an interest in her spiritual beliefs, tipped her handsomely in the cafe, and even bared his soul to her when alone. Bernie insisted that she was committed to husband Dev Alahan (Jimmi Harkishin), and he lashed out. In yesterday's instalment, she told Dev about her ordeal, and he wasn't happy. He couldn't understand her reckless decisions, and said she only had herself to blame for what was happening.

Bernie continued to profess her love for Dev in today's episode, telling him how much she regretted not telling him sooner about her night of madness and how sorry she was to hide the fact she spent that time with Mal. At Weatherfield police station, Lisa Swain (Vicky Myers) told colleague Kit Green (Jacob Roberts) that a man had been found lyin…

description: This gritty crime series isn't to be missed.
encoded: ITV has revealed when fans can expect the hotly-anticipated drama Gone - and there isn't long to wait. The series, which is set to star The Walking Dead’s David Morrissey and Torchwood’s Eve Myles, will premiere on Sunday 8 March at 9pm on ITV1. Fans will also be able to watch the show for the first time according to their own schedule, as episodes are set to be released ahead of transmission on ITVX. Gone stars Morrissey as headmaster Michael Polly, an "upstanding member of the community" who "is inscrutable and likes order and precision in his working life" - that is, until he becomes the prime suspect after his wife Sarah disappears. When an investigation is launched by Detective Annie Cassidy (Myles), "a compulsive game of cat and mouse begins as she chips away at his veneer in search of the truth," the official synopsis teases. "Beneath the surface of the mystery, lies a deeper exploration of trauma, trust and the legacy of elite institutions." The script has been penned by George Kay, who is best known for his work on The Long Shadow, Hijack and Lupin. The series is fictional, but has been partly inspired by the book To Hunt a Killer, as well as the career and work of respected former Detective Superintendent for Gloucestershire Police, Julie Mackay, and ITV Crime Correspondent Robert Murphy. Gone was announced back in November, with ITV describing it as a "gripping" and "psychological" drama. Myles said in a statement: "I'm thrilled to be playing Detective Annie Cassidy in George Kay's brilliantly written drama Gone. Annie is a fascinating character, intuitive, gutsy and doesn't suffer fools, but she has met her match in Michael Polly who is a formidable adversary played by David Morrissey. It's wonderful to be directed by Richard Laxton and I can't wait for the audience to see it." Morrissey added: "I’m delighted to be reunited with George Kay and the wonderful team at New Pictures. And to be working for the first time with the amazing Eve Myles and Richard …

encoded: Laurel Thomas (Charlotte Bellamy) rarely puts a foot out of line in Emmerdale, but her fortunes have somewhat changed in the last six months. She unknowingly coupled up with drug dealer turned human trafficker Ray Walters (Joe Absolom), and was left conflicted by his early demise. Laurel considered him just as much of a victim as the people he enslaved on his farm, and had to face the wrath of Marlon Dingle (Mark Charnock), who refused to see him as a good man. She's also clashed with son Arthur (Alfie Clarke) over the relationship, and in today's episode, was in the firing line of some pretty harsh comments from Paddy Dingle (Dominic Brunt). After hearing from vicar Charles Anderson (Kevin Mathurin) that Ray was due to be buried, she headed to the church for a moment of contemplation. She was saddened by the fact he was alone in the chapel of rest, and asked Charles to visit his body on her behalf. During their conversations, she learned that Paddy didn't want his dad, Bear Wolf (Joshua Richards), to know about the upcoming burial. He felt that it would bring back a multitude of horrible memories concerning his enslavement, and of Ray's murder.

Unfortunately, Charles' mum Claudette (Flo Wilson) slipped up and told Bear that Laurel would be accompanying her son to the funeral parlour. He was adamant that he should go with them, wanting to pay his respects. Upon returning to The Woolpack, Paddy lashed out towards Laurel and said that her actions were irresponsible. Laurel tried to explain that she couldn't overpower him, and that it was able to bring them both closure. P…

In what has been described as a "fascinating" six part series three years in the making, Force of Nature will reveal how nature is fighting back against today's extreme weather. Told through dramatic and character-led storytelling, the series captures nature's resilience in the face of hurricanes, floods, droughts and wildfires - showcasing the ferocity of earth's forces and the ingenuity of animal survival. Andrew Lincoln said: "Force of Nature is unlike any series I have ever worked on before. The team have done an excellent job at capturing the breathtaking wildlife in all its glory. To see these animals up close and personal is a privilege, and a real insight into the battles nature endures every day. The show captures what other wildlife series have not, as we reveal the real impact the weather has on the world’s creatures." From chimpanzees in Senegal to sea otters in California and 40,000 Caribbean flamingos to Arctic polar bears, the stunning series brings to life the trials and tribulations of the animal world. ITV factual controller, Jo Clinton Davis, commented: "We are excited to bring such a groundbreaking and insightful series to ITV focusing on the ever changing world of the animal kingdom, shot so beautifully by Plimsoll Productions. "The mammoth task of filming for three years across all manners of dangerous terrain is no mean feat and the narration by Andrew Lincoln brings to life what is a fascinating piece of television." Force of Nature is part of ITV's commitment to the climate content pledge, in which the channel signed in 2021 alongside other major UK streamers and broadcasters. The pledge signals a commitment to include programmes in our content line-up which helps audiences understand climate-related issues and inspire greener choices.

Across 14 days, the contestants must trek up the mountain with an equal share of £200,000 in their backpacks, finishing at the climactic summit. But not all of them will make it up there... The stakes are higher than ever in next week's episode (3 March) when trust becomes an issue between the group. But in the meantime, read on to find out who has left The Summit so far. Who left The Summit last night? Tara - Episode 5 After Colleen was given the chance to send one of the two contestants home, she ultimately decided to end Tara's journey to The Summit, saving Warren in the process. As she left, Tara said: "I love you all so much. Joel, Drew, Dockers, Warren even doing that just then, just great people." Tyra - Episode 4 Tyra became the fifth contestant to be eliminated from The Summit and the second via a vote from the camp. "I'm not crying because it's over," Tyra began as she addressed the camp. "But I'm crying because I've made a family here. It's hard, but reach that summit and thank you for believing in me. I didn't believe in myself at the last camp, so thank you." Afton - Episode 3 After a majority vote, Afton was sent home, after many of the contestants felt she wasted valuable time the previous day. "The group has made a massive mistake because I actually am a strong contender to make it to the summit," she said. "I'm agile, I'm mobile, I'm flexible, I'm strong and I have proven that to all of them and they've made a huge mistake sending me home." Patrick - Episode 2 In another race to reach the next checkpoint, Patrick injured himself, thus forfeiting his place in the competition.

description: The star departed in October.
encoded: Sally Ann Matthews has given a brutally honest account of her Coronation Street exit - and has said the show needs to "stay in its lane". The actress originally appeared as Jenny Bradley in the ITV soap between 1986 and 1991, as the daughter of villainous Alan Bradley. She returned for a brief stint two years later. Jenny's connection to the cobbles - foster mother Rita Tanner (Barbara Knox) - meant she was able to return for another storyline in 2015, which saw her entwined in a romance with Kevin Webster (Michael Le Vell). Matthews then made a full-time comeback the following year, and her on-screen family was gradually expanded. Jenny married Johnny Connor (Richard Hawley), and step-daughter from her first marriage, Daisy Midgley (Charlotte Jordan), was introduced. The women used money stolen from Underworld to buy the Rovers Return from pub chain LS Waterford, but were eventually shamed into handing it over to rightful owner Carla Connor (Alison King). Shamefaced, Jenny left for a new life in Tenerife.

description: A huge family secret is unearthed.
encoded: Jim McDonald's (Charles Lawson) death in Coronation Street is set to have huge repercussions for another Weatherfield family within the coming weeks. Last month, Radio Times revealed that the legendary character would be killed off, off-screen, in scenes that would leave son Steve (Simon Gregson) conflicted about his passing. These episodes have begun to play out on screen, and Cassie Plummer's (Claire Sweeney) plans to propose to Steve will be scuppered next week when news reaches the family that Jim has died. It's understood that wife Liz – who moved to Spain to live with their son Andy (Nicholas Cochrane) in 2020 – is not due to return for a funeral, as actress Beverley Callard has swapped soaps to star in Irish serial drama Fair City. Now, Radio Times can exclusively reveal that his passing goes on to unearth one of landlady Maggie Driscoll's (Pauline McLynn) deepest secrets.

Back in the 1980s, she had an affair with Jim, and they had son Ben (Aaron McCusker) together. This comes after a flashback episode which revealed she didn't have the smoothest of relationships with her late husband Alan, who she accidentally knocked down a staircase to his death. Did Alan know of her fling with Jim? Last year, shortly after her arrival, Maggie was spooked by something that she saw in Ken Barlow's (William Roache) sideboard, suggesting that she's known about the close connection to her new neighbours for quite some time. Steve has grown closer to Ben in recent weeks, much to the frustration of his best pal Tim Metcalfe (Joe Duttine). Ben even drove his new mate to the hospital in today's episode, though he declined the opportunity to visit Jim. What impact will this have on Maggie, and could it lead to resentment from Ben?

encoded: Bernie Winter-Alahan (Jane Hazlegrove) is walking on eggshells in Coronation Street, believing that creepy electrician Mal Roper (Tim Treloar) has broken into her home and defaced her wedding photo. It came after he locked the door on Roy's Rolls cafe and bared his soul to her, revealing that he'd not stop thinking about the night they'd spent together at the Chariot Square Hotel. As viewers will recall, Bernie was grieving son-in-law Billy Mayhew (Daniel Brocklebank), and headed to the hotel bar to drown her sorrows. She met Mal, who was upset that his wife had been communicating with Roy Cropper (David Neilson). The pair headed back to his room, where they continued to down alcohol and she ordered drugs. Mal tried to make a move, though she insisted that she was happily married to Dev Alahan (Jimmi Harkishin) and pulled away. However, that brief moment of locking lips has clearly weighed heavy on his mind ever since, and he wanted the feeling to be reciprocated. Bernie warned him that she wasn't interested, and the whole ordeal clearly rattled her.

Mal approached her in Victoria Gardens, insisting that she didn't have to be scared of him. But it was too late - she seemed to know what he was capable of, and thought she was being stalked.

encoded: A repulsive proposal has been made to Johnny Carter (Charlie Suff) in EastEnders, amid investor Tim Walton's (Tom Ratcliffe) vicious blackmail of Callum Highway (Tony Clay). Last week, Tim turned up in Walford to ask an illegal favour from the couple, believing that he had some leverage over them due to his monetary contributions towards Johnny's business. He wanted Callum to access confidential police records that could potentially jeopardise a rival lawyer's career. Callum was firmly against it, and was furious that Johnny suggested he even pretend to look for the information. The whole situation worsened when Callum's estranged husband Ben Mitchell (Max Bowden) sent a note saying that he could spend another 10 years behind bars if an incriminating USB stick wasn't retrieved from a property. Johnny advised against it, and wondered whether his partner's loyalty was beginning to stray. Callum was concerned about the effect a longer sentence for Ben could have on his daughter Lexi (Isabella Brown), who has already faced a lot of upheaval in her life. With assistance from Kathy Beale (Gillian Taylforth) and Ian Beale (Adam Woodyatt), he went to find the technology.

Wife Moira (Natalie J Robb) is currently spending time behind bars for manslaughter, after two bodies were found on their homestead Butler's Farm. She was framed by Robert Sugden (Ryan Hawley), who was being blackmailed by Joe Tate (Ned Porteous). Joe wanted the Sugdens' share of the land, and knew the only way they could get Moira to agree to the sale would be if she was in somewhat of a predicament. Her imprisonment came just days before Cain was diagnosed with an aggressive, yet localised form of prostate cancer. He initially declined to tell any of his family, though has since confided in granddaughter Sarah Sugden (Katie Hill). She hoped that reviving an old Dingle thrill could help boost his spirits, and suggested stealing some cars. The temptation of taking Joe's new DeLorean was too much to resist, and the pair took it for a spin before trying to find a quick buyer. It didn't take long for Joe to realise what had happened, though Cain denied all knowledge. He said that for £200, he'd reveal whether or not he had the vehicle. Although Joe was tempted by the offer, he decided to play the long game instead and walked away.

description: Breathing new life into a tiring format.
encoded: Britain's Got Talent sinks to a surreal new low on its return: a parkour dog receiving rapturous applause from the studio audience and three of its four judges. Simon Cowell is thrilled - he can't believe his luck. His eyes light up as if he’s discovered the next Ashleigh and Pudsey, the Britain's Got Talent-winning dog-and-owner duo who bizarrely went on to have their own film that absolutely no one asked for. Thankfully, there's a new face on the judging panel to give Simon, Amanda Holden and Alesha Dixon a much-needed reality check: KSI. Despite the deafening cheers from the crowd, KSI isn't exactly impressed, and he's right! I've long believed nothing gives me "the ick" more than parkour - until I saw it performed by a dog… badly. I was fully prepared to loathe KSI on Britain's Got Talent; I can't say I've followed his career with much interest. I know he was one of the first household names to emerge from YouTube and that he used his fortune to launch a rap career (much to the delight of my nephew, who tortures me with his tunes). I've struggled to see what positive cultural impact KSI has had on the millions of fans who hang on his every word. I've dismissed him as a chancer, willing to grab any pile of cash within reach. The company he keeps is enough to ring alarm bells: in 2022 he co-launched the Prime energy drink with Logan Paul. The drink has since been banned in some schools over concerns about its high caffeine levels and the disruptive hype after children queued around the block to buy it. KSI has done little, until now, to convince me he's a positive role model for future generations. But credit where it's due: he's the best thing to happen to Britain's Got Talent since Susan Boyle. Britain's Got Talent's longevity is nothing to sneer at, it still pulls in millions of viewers and remains an absolute juggernaut for ITV, long after so many reality shows have come and gone. 18 years ago, no one would have believed BGT could outlive The X Factor - but he…

encoded: It's not often that a DeLorean rolls into a quaint Yorkshire village, and given this is Emmerdale, it was pretty much a guarantee that it was going to be nicked. Earlier this week, resident multi-millionaire Joe Tate (Ned Porteous) showed step-son Evan one of his favourite films - the 1985 science fiction film Back to the Future, starring Michael J. Fox. The lads curled up on the sofa to watch the adventures of Marty McFly and his eccentric scientist mate Doc Brown, with Joe's fiancée Dawn Fletcher (Olivia Bromley) warmed at the sight of him finally becoming somewhat of a family man. Inspired by the film, he'd gone out to buy his very own DeLorean sports car. Today's episode saw Joe riding through the Yorkshire B-roads, quickly grabbing the attention of Kammy Hadiq (Shebz Miah) and Vinny Dingle (Bradley Johnson). They were chuffed to find it parked up outside of David's Shop, and cheekily asked if they could take it for a spin. Of course, the answer was no.

Just days before, Sarah had suggested that her 'Grumpy' get back onto the car thieving game to raise some money towards Butler's Farm's monetary woes. Cain was firmly against it, though it seemed the sight of a flashy 80s motor had clearly changed his mind. Later that day, the two sat proudly beside the vehicle, hoping to find a seller for it. They knew that it would only be a matter of time before Joe arrived to point the finger, and sure enough, he was hot on their heels. By the time he reached Butler's, the DeLorean was parked up inside of a barn and Cain denied all knowledge. Joe could clearly see he was lying, and Cain decided to play something of a game with h…

encoded: ITV's flagship soap operas Coronation Street and Emmerdale could soon look quite different - as the broadcaster's creative director of continuing drama Iain MacLeod has voiced his decision to make them look more "cinematic". The dramas - which have been on air for a combined 118 years - have always had somewhat of a kitchen sink feel, reflecting the often far-fetched lives of normal folk living in the North. However, a huge upgrade is on the way, including new equipment and post-production infrastructure at studios in Trafford, Greater Manchester, and Leeds. "We’re in the midst of a big piece of work around evolving what they both look like,” he told the This Is MediaCity podcast. "I want there to be a somewhat consistent visual feel between the soaps so you sort of know when you turn on Emmerdale or turn on Corrie that it’s an ITV [show], without homogenising it too much.” MacLeod also noted that they are exploring the possibility of shooting in a higher resolution than HD. "What we don't want is to be left behind. If your mum's now watching Squid Game on Netflix, you don't want those viewers to turn on Corrie or turn on Emmerdale and it looks like a completely different century - or genre, even," he said. "We want to evolve our look so it retains some of the cinematic flavours that we saw in Corriedale recently."

There's some unfortunate news if you were a fan of the high-stakes crossover instalment, and were hoping for more. It was very much a one-off. "My fear is a lot of the joy of the first iteration was that you’d never seen it before," he said. "I just don’t know that if you did it again, firstly, there wouldn’t be the same level of excitement because you’ve seen it before." He added: "Sometimes one and done is grea…

Daniel came to the conclusion that he had a crush on Megan, but is yet to realise the extent of their relationship. During recent weeks, Sam Blakeman (Jude Riordan) has become suspicious of the closeness between the two, with Megan dealing a menacing threat to him when she feared her secret would be outed. She insisted that there was nothing going on, and if he was to dig any further, it could cause a lot of hurt. Now, with her flatmate Leanne Battersby (Jane Danson) away, Will rejoiced at the prospect of finally getting some alone time. Sam spotted him entering the flat, and Will claimed that he had to ask Megan some questions about his upcoming athletics tournament. The two were together for over an hour and a half, with Sam stood outside timing their interaction.

encoded: Recently revived Graham Foster (Andrew Scarborough) has stunned Rhona Goskirk (Zoe Henry) in Emmerdale with a shocking confession. The villagers are still reeling from the fact that Graham, former guardian of Joe Tate (Ned Porteous) and third husband of Kim Tate (Claire King), was still alive. But how did he survive a cremation? Well, after hearing Kim arranging a hit on him with Al Chapman (Michael Wildman), he faked his own death following an almighty scuffle with Rhona's ex-husband Pierce Harris (Jonathan Wrather). Graham then fled, allowing Rhona to believe he'd died. The two had been seeing each other for a number of months, and he'd built a relationship with her son Leo, though knew that if he stuck around their lives could be at risk. In the aftermath, Marlon Dingle (Mark Charnock) - who Rhona is now married to - was sent to prison for Graham's apparent death. Roll on six years, and he showed up on the doorstep of Smithy Cottage, explaining that he'd overheard her step-daughter April Windsor's (Amelia Flanagan) name mentioned when being told about a drug dealing gang in the area.

He wanted to save her from twisted Ray Walters (Joe Absolom) and Celia Daniels (Jaye Griffiths), though ultimately didn't have to - they both perished hours later. Graham has since made his presence known in the village, moving back into Home Farm and frustrating Kim. She would've rather he stayed dead. The mood was pretty much reciprocated by everyone else who has crossed his path, including Marlon, who was furious that Rhona decided not to disclose his revival. In today's episode, Graham unexpectedly turned up at Smithy once again, this time handing over a football that he claimed to believe was Leo's. It was an obvious ploy to get some al…

description: One last hurrah.
encoded: The unlikely partnership between DI Geordie Keating and his local vicar – first Sidney Chambers, then William Davenport, and last, but by no means least, Alphy Kotteram – has been the beating heart of Grantchester. The period drama, which airs on ITV in the UK and PBS across the pond, first debuted in the heady days of 2014 and now has an impressive 10 seasons under its belt – something many shows could only ever dream of. "As I'm in the last third of my life, I want to work with people I love working with and do projects that make me genuinely happy and push me creatively," co-lead Robson Green said previously. "But in the end, I just really want to have fun doing what I love. And Grantchester caters for those needs... long may it continue." We already know it's returning for season 11 after the news was confirmed in July last year – but when might it air? And how long will it keep going for? Here's everything you need to know about Grantchester season 11 and beyond. Is Grantchester ending with season 11? Sadly yes. Season 11 will be the drama's final instalment. "From the very beginning, I have had the incredible fortune to be part of this extraordinary team of talented, passionate, and dedicated individuals who have become more than colleagues," said Green, who's been part of the show from the very beginning. "They have become family. I have made friendships forged through shared laughter, challenges, and triumphs. "The bonds we’ve formed extend far beyond the camera lens, and I know that they will endure long after the final scene within the Grantchester world has been filmed. Thank you to everyone who has been part of this incredible journey." Rishi Nair, who joined in season 9 as Alphy, said it had been "the greatest honour to step into the world of Grantchester and be part of a show with so much heart". "I’ve had the privilege of telling stories that mean so much to so many, and I’m deeply thankful for that," he added. "As we begin filming this final chapter,…

encoded: Cain Dingle (Jeff Hordley) has been left furious in Emmerdale, after a serious confession from sister-in-law Ruby Miligan (Beth Cordingly). As we know, Cain's wife Moira (Natalie J Robb) has been wrongly imprisoned for manslaughter, after two bodies were found on Butler's Farm. The first body found was enslaved Anya Berisha (Alia Al-Shabibi), who passed away following the foul treatment she received from Ray Walters (Joe Absolom) and Celia Daniels (Jaye Griffiths). In a shocking twist, the second corpse was Celia herself. Ruby discovered the shallow graves while seeking answers about Anya's death. The two had struck up a friendship last year when she was found sleeping in one of Caleb's (William Ash) work vans. Spooked by the sight of the disturbed soil, she alerted authorities, unaware of the implications this would have for Moira. In today's episode, the Miligans popped round to Butler's to see how Cain was getting on. Ruby commented that the farmhouse kitchen was a mess, and he abruptly snapped back. She was overcome with guilt, and finally admitted that she was the one who called the police to tell them about Anya's body. Cain was enraged, accusing Ruby and Caleb of betraying the family and effectively throwing poor Moira under the bus. He said they should've come to him first – as ultimately their decision just made Moira look more guilty. Cain also came to the conclusion that Caleb only offered to pay for her lawyer because he was guilty, and ordered them to leave. Will he divulge this information to an already troubled Moira? And will she ever walk free?

encoded: Time may be running out for Carl Webster (Jonathan Howard) in Coronation Street, having been named as a potential murder victim during a special flash-forward episode that aired earlier this week. Let's face it - there's very few people in Weatherfield who he hasn't annoyed and therefore would have the desire to rid him from the area, but in today's episode we uncovered two potential suspects. As viewers know, a guilt-ridden Carl was ready to confess that he caused Billy Mayhew's (Daniel Brocklebank) death by dangerous driving - therefore saving 'sister' Debbie (Sue Devaney) from taking the rap - when she admitted that she is actually his mother. In an emotional conversation, she explained that four decades ago, she handed him over to her dad and step-mum to raise. Carl was furious, and asserted that this had completely changed his mind about confessing. He would rather see her spend the rest of her life behind bars. Now serving a two year, eight month sentence, Debbie has come face-to-face with one of her former hotel clients instead. Brutish Paula (Kelli Hollis) had been thrown out of the Chariot Square bar in the past, and she wasn't in the mood to forgive her fellow inmate. Today, Paula barged into Debbie's cell and burst into tears, explaining that her boyfriend had ended their relationship.

Wanting to offer some support, Debbie noted that she was may be better off without him - and received a pretty hostile response, resulting in Paula punching her. It's clear that things aren't going to smoothly on the inside, and when husband Ronnie Bailey (Vinta Morgan) and brother Kevin (Michael Le Vell) went to visit her, they clocked her black eye. They wanted to know whether Carl was telling the truth about his parentage, or wh…

encoded: ITV has dismissed rumours that The Voice UK could be "rested" after a delay in airing its latest season. Recent reports in The Sun have suggested that the entertainment series won't air until late 2026, with a source claiming that people are "openly talking" about resting the show after its upcoming 14th edition. However Radio Times understands that The Voice UK remains in the schedule for this year and that there is no truth to the claim that its future is in doubt. The Voice last aired in 2024, and saw singer Ava crowned the winner, securing a win for Team Tom and Danny who were her coaches for the series. Alongside her title of champion, Ava won a recording contract, £50,000 and a holiday to Florida. Upon her win, Ava said she she was "speechless" before adding that she felt "really honoured". Though exact details on when it will air on TV are yet to be confirmed, there is plenty to look forward when The Voice does return. Last summer it was announced that LeAnn Rimes had exited the show as coach after one season, but ITV was quick to confirm that Kelly Rowland would be joining the panel.

I can't wait to hear all the new talent and go to battle for my team. Let's go!" Her fellow coaches praised Rowland's inclusion in the coach's chair, with Sir Tom Jones describing Rowland as "an amazing artist with a huge amount of experience to share", while will.i.am said she will "take this season to the dopest level possible".
