Written and created by BAFTA award-winning Danny Brocklehurst, the first successful series followed a group of Brits who migrated to Australia after WW2 in 1957 in the promise of a better life in Australia.

Kate (Michelle Keegan), Terry (Warren Brown) and Annie (Faye Marsay) risked everything for a chance of a new life down under.

The new series follows their adventure on the other side of the world and shows how each of them are determined against all odds to achieve their slice of the Australian dream.

This City Is Ours

BBC

This City Is Ours tells the story of organised crime and love[/caption]

Set and filmed in Liverpool, it tells the story of Michael, played by James Nelson-Joyce, a man who is working for his friend and gang leader Ronnie, played by Sean Bean.

For years, together with Ronnie, Michael has successfully been bringing cocaine into Liverpool and beyond, directly from Columbia.

But, when a shipment goes missing, he knows they may be under attack.

The series explores what happens when Ronnie’s son Jamie, played by Jack McMullen, decides he wants to inherit their kingdom.

Michael and Jamie battle for control, but his biggest challenge is saving the woman he loves and the child he has always wanted.

Towards Zero 

JAMES PARDON

Towards Zero is based on the Agatha Christie books[/caption]

Based on the classic mystery by the best-selling author of all time, Agatha Christie, the series promises coastal views, heated summer soirees, and a trip to Wimbledon Centre Court.

England, 1936. After a scandalous celebrity divorce, Nevile Strange and his ex-wife Audrey make the unthinkable decision to spend a summer together at Gull’s Point, their childhood home and the coastal estate of Nevile’s aunt, Lady Tressilian.

With unfinished business between the former childhood sweethearts, plus the presence of Nevile’s new wife Kay, tensions are running high.

Add to this an exiled cousin with a grudge, a venerable family lawyer, an inquisitive orphan and a French con man, and soon there will be murder.

A troubled detective must solve the crime before another victim meets their death?

Taking starring roles are Anjelica Huston, Matthew Rhys, Oliver Jackson-Cohen, Ella Lily Hyland and Mimi Keene.

AN Android user was left red-faced after a life-saving feature on their phone accidentally sent nude photos to friends and family.

The embarrassed owner of a Google Pixel sent off naked footage to 12 emergency contacts saved on their handset due to a simple mistake.

An ordinary alarm turned into a nude nightmare for one unlucky sleeper[/caption]

Emergency SOS allows people to quickly request help when pressing the power button five times or more, which will follow with a loud siren.

An automatic countdown then starts before a call is made to emergency services and alerts loved ones.

The important tool will also send photos and videos from your camera to show your current state.

However, a Reddit user has revealed how he accidentally triggered the feature, sending naked pics to family and friends as a result.

Nude sleeper AssistancePretend668 revealed how he woke up to his normal morning alarm and tried to “press buttons to shut it up”.

“In the process, I somehow hit the power button 5x and set off Emergency SOS,” he said.

“The gentle ringing alarm turns into that blaring siren sound, jolting me about 5ft in the air, scrambling to stop it.

“I grab my phone and look at the screen (still half asleep). I see the notifications for “calling 911” and stuff about sending location and whatever else to emergency contacts.

“I’m thinking “S*** emergency services are going to come, my friends will get scared, and I’m just laying here naked in bed!!””

But before he had a chance to process what was happening and cancel it, the emergency image capture feature had sent contacts live shots of him totally nude.

“The phone starts ringing and texts start coming in,” he continued.

“Friends are concerned…but not so much about my safety but rather that MY PIXEL SENT EVERYBODY PHOTO/VIDEO OF ME NAKED.”

How to avoid embarrassment on your phone

Emergency SOS is a potentially life-saving feature so you probably don’t want to switch off.

If you’ve set it up with emergency contacts, you have 15 seconds after recording to cancel the video sharing element.

Sadly, that wasn’t enough for the user here.

If you would rather not be able to send photos and videos at all, you can simply turn that function off.

Search for Emergency SOS in the settings and you should see the option there.

A MANIAC driver who murdered a man and left another in a wheelchair after a horror hit-and-run is facing life in jail.

Michael Day, 24, mowed down Thomas Bowers, 33, and Stephen Byrne, 53, in Glasgow’s Springburn in the early hours of April 14, 2023.

The shocking crime is said to have been sparked after a bust-up over money at a nearby flat.

Day – said to only have a provisional licence at the time – drove to the scene in a Vauxhall Astra before hitting the men as they walked in the street.

Mr Bowers never recovered having suffered fatal injuries.

Day was convicted of murder and attempted murder today following a trial at the High Court in Glasgow.

Jurors watched CCTV of the attacks captured that morning.

Members of Mr Bowers distressed family left the courtroom before it was played.

The killing occurred in the city’s Petershill Road at its junction with Auchinloch Street.

The Astra hit both men before reversing, driving at them again and then fleeing the scene.

One police officer who examined the footage said it appeared others then seemingly were “rifling” the pockets of a stricken Mr Bowers.

Mr Byrne gave evidence during the trial. He remains in a wheelchair due to his injuries.

The witness said he had been at a nearby flat to speak to a man who owed him money.

He admitted there had been “raised voices” at the property, but denied there was any violence.

Both Mr Byrne and Mr Bowers were then struck shortly after leaving the flat.

Asked by prosecutor Greg Farrell what he recalled about the collision, Mr Byrne stated: “I heard the revving of an engine, the lights and that was it.

“I remember trying to jump as the car came towards me.”

The witness said he was drifting in and out of conscious as he lay stricken on the ground.

A number of people came up the street and he asked them to call an ambulance for them both.

Day was said to have made incriminating remarks after the attack to a man and also asked in vain for him to help torch the Astra.

The car was later discovered burnt-out in the city’s Riddrie.

Prosecutors said Day then fled to a caravan park in Ayrshire and also got rid of a sim card from a mobile phone he had been using.

Lord Harrower adjourned sentencing until next month for reports.

The judge told Day: “You have been found guilty of murder and attempted murder.

“There is only one sentence and that is one of life imprisonment.

“No sentence will alleviate the suffering from those closest to Thomas Bowers.

“You showed a callous disregard for human life.”

EMMERDALE fans are absolutely stunned to learn who Dominic Brunt’s wife is in real life.

The 54-year-old actor has played the role of Paddy Kirk in the long-running ITV soap since 1997.

Dominic has been a mainstay in front of the camera on Emmerdale for nearly three decades.

From various affairs to the utterly devastating loss of a child, Paddy has been at the centre of some of the most notable storylines.

However, fans of the ITV soap were left absolutely shocked to discover that he calls fellow soap star Joanne Mitchell, 53, his wife.

She has held a number of roles on the soap, the first of which came in 2003 when she played DS Karen Barnborough in two episodes.

She later made two more appearances as a midwife called Yeo, and later as CAFCASS officer Susan Davies across four episodes in 2009.

Her most notable role came in 2016 after she replaced Janet Bamford in the role of Sandra Flaherty.

This is the mum of Liv (Isobel Steele) and the step-mother of Aaron Dingle (Danny Miller).

The actress played the character for six years before stepping away from the soap in 2022.

She’s also had multiple roles on Coronation Street, which include the character Marsha Westbrook in 2018.

After meeting at drama school in Bristol, Dominic and Joanne decided to get married in 2003.

They share two children: sons Mickey-Joe and Danny Lee.

In a 2022 interview with Inside Soap, Joanne spoke about working alongside her husband on the Dales.

She said: “I haven’t seen Dominic at the studios yet since I’ve been back this time.

“It’s fun to be on the same show but I’ve not actually worked with him yet. We haven’t had any scenes together as our characters live separate lives in the village.”

Recently, a snap of the pair went viral as Emmerdale fans were whipped into a frenzy.

One fan stated: ” “Fine actor. But I never knew his wife was Liv’s mum in Emmerdale!”

As a second exclaimed: “So shocked Sandra is his off-screen wife.”

“Wow I didn’t know he is married to Liv’s mum in real life,” commented a third viewer.

As a fourth user added: “That’s who that is!”

F1 ENGINEER Calum Nicholas says he was left “broken” by the death of Jules Bianchi after his Japanese Grand Prix crash.

The Red Bull engineer worked with the French F1 driver at Marussia as a mechanic back in 2011 – his first job in the paddock.

PA:Press Association

Nicholas worked at Marussia with Jules Bianchi at the time of his Japanese Grand Prix crash in 2014[/caption]

During the 2014 Japanese GP, Bianchi lost control of his Marussia and clashed with a recovery vehicle.

The weather conditions in Japan at the time were treacherous and delayed the race from getting underway.

Following the collision, Bianchi suffered a diffuse axonal injury which is caused by severe damage to the head.

Bianchi spent nine months in a coma before tragically passing away in 2015.

He was the first F1 driver to die from injuries that occurred during a Grand Prix since Brazilian driver Ayrton Senna.

Safety in the sport has come on leaps and bounds since then, with the introduction of the halo and clearer communication when a recovery vehicle is used.

That hasn’t helped Nicholas shake Bianchi’s death from his memory though.

Nicholas collected the wreckage of the car from the FIA garage and broke down in tears.

In his book, Life in the Pitlane, he writes: “I was not in any way prepared, at the age of 24, to have been responsible for building a car that somebody later died in.

“Regardless of the cause of the crash not being a mechanical fault, the guilt of having been one of the mechanics responsible for that car broke me for a little while.”

Since leaving Marussia at the end of that season Nicholas has become a familiar face on Netflix’s hit show Drive to Survive as a key engineer in Max Verstappen’s pit crew.

As part of the Red Bull driver’s team, Nicholas has helped propel Verstappen to four straight F1 world titles.

The Brit has also worked with Lewis Hamilton on the Hamilton Comission, a research project into diversity in motorsport conducted by the seven-time world champion.

TRIBUTES have poured in for a mum-of-two who was shot dead at a pub on Valentine’s Day by a gunman who reportedly “jumped off the QE2 bridge”.

Lisa Smith, 43, was shot dead by a man “known to her” at the Three Horseshoes pub in Knockholt, Kent, on Friday evening.

Cops are now scouring the River Thames for the gunman who is thought to have jumped from the QE2 bridge.

A car and a firearm were found abandoned nearby at 7pm on Saturday.

One source said Lisa – also known as Lisa Stockings – had been in the pub with a female friend before she was pronounced dead at the scene following the tragedy.

Tributes have now poured in for mum-of-two Lisa as she was pictured for the first time.

Grieving Teejay Smith paid tribute to his murdered mother Lisa following the horror shooting.

The 19-year-old posted one of him and his mum, writing: “My mum, the best woman to walk in two shoes.”

Teejay posted a number of snaps of his mum and one picture showed Lisa posing next to an Amy Winehouse statue.

Another showed her dolled up in a sparkly dress at a glitzy dinner event.

Posting a video of floral tributes left at the scene, Donna Kidd said: “Taken way too soon, our lady Lisa girl loved forever and always never be another Lisa.

“Girl love from all your girls.”

Marylou Tom Harber added: “No words so sad RIP Lisa girl to beautiful for this earth.”

Meanwhile tributes were left at the scene, with flowers and balloons, placed on a nearby section of grass.

One touching card read: “Our love and prayers are with your family, especially your boys and granddaughter.

“May they continue to frown knowing the love you always showed them.

“May your light continue to shine as bright as it always has.”

Two other cards read: “Dear Lisa, rest in peace.”

Many people had left Red Bull along with their written tributes.

Balloons with the words ‘a wonderful mum’ had also been left tied to a brick near the flowers.

Another balloon had the Disney mermaid Ariel.

One source said Lisa had been in the pub with a female friend before she was pronounced dead at the scene following the tragedy.

Kent Police have been undertaking an extensive manhunt to find her killer, with the latest being they found a vehicle linked to the shooting on the Queen Elizabeth II bridge in Dartford.

The suspect, named as Edvard Stockings, was later seen on the wrong side of the barrier 17 miles away at Dartford Crossing and is thought to have jumped.

Kent Police say a firearm, thought to be linked to him, was later recovered.

Detective Chief Inspector David Higham said he is “not ruling out the possibility that he may have entered the water.”

He added: “We are currently only looking for one suspect and do not believe there to be an ongoing risk to the public.

“Specialist officers continue to work with the families of both parties involved to support them following this tragic incident.”

The pub’s landlady Michelle Thomas described how the tragedy unfolded while she was printing off menus for Valentine’s Day dinner service.

Michelle says she heard two bangs as Lisa was shot, with the mum-of-two later being pronounced dead at the scene.

She told Sky News: “There was so much commotion – screaming, shouting, crying. People were outside, on their phones.

“We tried to get people inside the pub to consolidate them. People were only just starting to sit down, it was early on in the evening.”

As 30 people were seated for dinner, another 20 were situated in the bar as the shocking shooting began.

The landlady described the community as experiencing “absolute shock” as the pub reopened for the first time on Sunday following the tragedy.

‘SCARY AND DISTRESSING’

Terrified locals claimed they heard “three loud bangs” after the woman was shot dead outside the pub on Friday night.

Another revealed how petrified couples were “locked in” the pub for their own safety.

The villager, who lives close to the pub, said: “I heard three loud bangs and a bit of commotion.”

Zack Warne, 19, added: “It is shocking, this is Knockholt, not south London.

“The helicopter was up all night.”

Joyce Betts, 82, who lives nearby, continued: “My granddaughter called me and said ‘make sure your windows and doors are locked’.

“I could see lights outside but I couldn’t tell what was going on it was coming through that someone had been shot, I thought oh my God that’s all we need in our sleepy little village.”

One villager, who would only give her name as Julie, said armed police swooped on the pub.

She said: “My brother-in-law and sister-in-law were in the pub for valentines dinner. They were locked in.

“I was texting them making sure they were okay. There were armed police all over the pub.

“When they were told to come home they had to have their picture taken and they were escorted home by the police.

“It is scary. It was really distressing for them.”

Ray Picot, 70, said: “Just after 7pm I heard the shots. Bang, bang. I thought it was a road traffic collision at first.

“I thought ‘oh no not another accident’. The helicopter was buzzing around for hours.

“I’ve lived here 30 years and it’s a real shock. It’s such a quiet area.”

Officers and South East Coast Ambulance Service paramedics had rushed to the pub in the quiet village after reports of a disturbance at the Three Horseshoes pub.

There, they discovered Lisa who had suffered injuries “consistent with gunshot wounds” and she was declared deceased at the scene shortly after 7pm on Friday.

Following the horrific shooting, the pub released a statement that read: “Following the official press release of the tragic incident that happened on the premises last night – all of us at the Three Horseshoes want to send our sincere condolences to the victim’s family and friends.

“We also want to send our support to anyone else in the local and surrounding community who have been impacted by this.

“Please be respectful of everyone involved at this difficult time, thank you.”

WYNNE Evans’ BBC travelled series has been pulled off air tonight amid his Strictly tour axe.

The Go Compare star, 53, was dropped from the dancing show’s live tour after an ‘inappropriate’ comment of his towards Janette Manrara was picked up by cameras.

An EastEnders special hosted by Ross Kemp – who recently returned as Grant Mitchell – will air tonight[/caption]

Despite taking a break from his BBC Radio Wales programme, Wynne’s travel show with Gavin and Stacey star Joanna Page has remained on air.

However, in a schedule shakeup, it’s been axed from screens tonight – Monday – and replaced by an EastEnders special.

The soap is celebrating its 40th anniversary this week and Beeb bosses have added a number of extra shows to celebrate the milestone.

Wynne & Joanna: All At Sea usually airs Mondays at 8.30pm but this week, it has moved to Wednesday at the same time.

In its place is EastEnders: 40 Years on the Square, which sees Ross Kemp – who recently returned to the soap as Grant Mitchell – meet cast members past and present.

He also explores the groundbreaking issues that defined the British soap.

The show will feature exclusive behind-the-scenes footage and contributions from Michelle Collins, Adam Woodyatt, Gillian Taylforth, Letitia Dean, Jessie Wallace, Anita Dobson and Pam St Clement.

The schedule change comes days after Wynne snubbed a co-star after his axing from the Strictly tour.

The 53-year-old opera singer has stepped back from the limelight after being dropped from the arena run for using the term “spit-roast” towards Janette Manrara and Jamie Borthwick during a media photocall.

Wynne has since stopped following EastEnders star Jamie, who he was previously friends with, on Instagram.

Actor Jamie – who plays Jay Brown in EastEnders – does still follow Wynne.

A representative for Wynne told The Sun: “When Wynne left the tour he unfollowed people who were posting about it purely to protect his mental health. Jamie was one of those people.  There was nothing more to it than that.”

It comes after we revealed the tenor feels he has been “knifed” by the BBC over his Strictly sacking and will not go down without a fight.

The Go Compare star is set to take the corporation to a tribunal as he believes his reputation has been unfairly left “in tatters”.

Timeline of Gabby Petito’s disappearance & murder

July 2, 2021: Gabby & her fiancé hit the road

Gabby Petito and her fiancé Brian Laundrie embarked on a cross-country trip across the US.

They planned to document their travels on the YouTube channel Nomadic Statik, with its description reading: “Hey! We’re Gabby + Brian.

“Recently we decided to downsize our life into a little Ford transit connect to travel across the United States!”

The couple appeared to be having the time of their lives as they visited some of the most picturesque parts of the US, including numerous national parks.

August 12, 2021: Pulled over by police

Police in Moab City, Utah, pulled over Gabby and Laundrie’s van after receiving reports of a physical altercation.

Body cam footage — which was not released until a month later — showed Gabby visibly upset, with her telling officers they’d had a falling out, which Laundrie confirmed.

When asked what happened by police, Gabby said: “We’ve just been fighting this morning. Some personal issues.

“Yeah, I don’t know, it’s just some days, I have really bad OCD, and I was just cleaning and straightening up, and I was apologising to him saying that I’m so mean because sometimes I have OCD and get frustrated.”

Cops spotted that Gabby had marks on her face and arm, while Laundrie also had a facial injury.

Officers ruled Gabby as the aggressor and advised the couple to separate for the night.

Laundrie said he would not press charges, explaining: “I’m not going to pursue anything because she is my fiancée and I love her.

“It was just a squabble. Sorry it had to get so public.”

August 19, 2021: First and only YouTube video dropped

Gabby and Laundrie posted their sole YouTube video to their channel, titled Van Life: Beginning our Van Life Journey.

The eight-minute reel showcased a number of seemingly happy moments from their trip so far.

It has gone on to amass more than 7million views on the platform.

August 24, 2021: Salt Lake sighting

Gabby was seen leaving a hotel in Salt Lake City, Utah, alongside Laundrie.

It featured Halloween-themed photos and was captioned “Happy Halloween”.

August 27, 2021: Estimated date of Gabby’s murder

This was the estimated date of Gabby’s murder.

CCTV footage from the day showed her and Laundrie at a Whole Foods store — this is the last footage of Gabby alive that was ever captured.

August 29, 2021: ‘Gabby is gone’

Laundrie called his parents and told them “Gabby is gone”, per CNN.

He also reportedly asked his dad Christopher to arrange an attorney for him.

Speaking of the call, Laundrie’s mum Roberta later told the court: “His voice was very upset and I didn’t know why.

“I didn’t want to push him, so we just said goodbye.

“When I got off the phone, I told Chris, you know, ‘Brian sounded upset. Maybe you should give him a call’.”

August 30, 2021: Text to Gabby’s mum from her phone

In this date a text message was sent from Gabby’s phone to her mother Nichole Schmidt.

Nichole found the wording suspicious, suggesting Laundrie may have sent it posing as Gabby.

The message referred to Gabby’s grandad by his first name — something she would not have done herself.

September 1, 2021: Laundrie arrived at parents’ home

Brian Laundrie’s sister Cassie said she met with her parents and brother at a Florida campsite before the news of Gabby’s disappearance was made public.

She later revealed that this was the last time she saw her brother alive.

September 11, 2021: Gabby’s mum reported her missing

Gabby’s mum Nichole reported her daughter missing to the police.

Authorities towed away Gabby and her fiancé’s shared van from the Laundrie family’s driveway.

September 14, 2021: Laundrie family statement

Through their lawyer, the Laundrie family released a statement reading: “This is understandably an extremely difficult time for both the Petito family and the Laundrie family.

“It is our understanding that a search has been organised for Miss Petito in or near Grand Teton National Park in Wyoming.

“On behalf of the Laundrie family it is our hope that the search for Miss Petito is successful and that Miss Petito is re-united with her family.

“On the advice of counsel, the Laundrie family is remaining in the background at this juncture and will have no further comment.”

September 15, 2021: Brian Laundrie named person of interest

Police named Brian Laundrie as a person of interest in Gabby’s disappearance in a post on X/Twitter directed at the Laundrie family’s lawyer Steven Bertolino.

He even suggested that both needed to be completely rebuilt in order to see any improvement.

Wenger told beIN Sports: “You will not find many happy fans on either side.
