BBC Two is “terrified” to announce that Psychoville, written by Reece Shearsmith and Steve Pemberton, will return for a one-off special programme to be shown next year, and a new, six-part second series.
The dark comedy thriller was centred on very different characters, who each received an anonymous mysterious letter claiming: “I know what you did…” The last series episode concluded the story at Ravenhill Hospital, for the completely insane, with a huge explosion. In the new series, all will be revealed as to who managed to survive the blast.
Eastenders actress Lacey Turner has revealed that she doesn’t want to take part in February’s live episode of the soap.
Bosses are planning to air a live episode as part of the show’s 25th birthday celebrations. However when asked if she would be taking part, Lacey who plays Stacey Slater told MSN:
This is the moment when Tony Gordon admits to police that he murdered Liam Connor last year. He walks from the canal bank to admit to police that he murdered Liam and pushed Roy into the canal.
In the dramatic scenes, his fiancee Maria Connor storms into the police station shouting and demanding an explanation for why he did it.
Ohhh tonight’s installment is a Corrie episode not to be missed!

Launched five years ago this November, World of Warcraft is a cultural gaming phenomenon that has taken the world by storm. Now attracting 50 million players across every continent, this massively multiplayer game has not only revolutionised virtual role-playing online, it has become a hugely influential part of its players’ lives.
Forty years since the release of the Carpenters debut LP this musical spectacular will celebrate the sounds and successes of the influential duo with some of the greatest pop stars of today.
Hosted by Amanda Holden and Ronan Keating and made in collaboration with Richard Carpenter, Celebrating the Carpenters, sees the following artists take to the stage to perform their own unique versions of some of the Carpenters best loved songs :
Coronation Street’s Rosie Webster is set to get a boob job in 2010, as part of a bid to become a glamour model.
The decision shocks her mum sally Webster, who is trying to work up the courage to tell her family that she has breast cancer and needs a lumpectomy.
Rosie plans to sell her beloved sports car to pay for the operation, however she is spared having to part with her motor after her agency boss agrees to ‘invest in her future.’
This is a film that’s going to haunt me for a long time. There’s only ever been one other film that had such a profound effect on me and that was Sophie’s Choice. And like Sophie in that film, the parents of children trying to escape the lives they were born into know that when they say goodbye to their kids, it literally could mean they’ll never see them again, nor ever learn of their fate.
Then there were the many, many children who didn’t have parents, or if they did, were horribly abused by them. But all those young, naïve and innocent kids were trying to get across the border to the US, and filmmaker/director Rebecca Camisa followed just a handful of them on their journey.
And it was one fraught with dangers that most adults wouldn’t make it alive through, never mind waif like, poverty stricken children. Clinging desperately to the tops of freight trains, these children are full of dreams of what cities like Manhattan can offer them, and of course, most often, they don’t even make it across the border.
Hannah Rothschild made this film which amounted to following Nicky Haslam around for a year. Why? I don’t know. And having watched it, I still don’t know.
If I were in a generous mood, I might presuppose she made it to dig deeper than the very shallow level on which Mr Haslam lives – to reveal a ‘different’ side to him – but frankly, he’s a shallow swimmer in a shallow pool full of shallow sharks.
But they’re rich and famous these swimmers and if they’re not, they’re not in sight. So if you, like me, can’t air-kiss, can’t say “darling” every two seconds and don’t have a propensity to drink only the most expensive champagne – then eat a blini before throwing it up – you and I are not welcome in Haslam’s circles.

Blake Lively has admitted that she often finds it “absurd” playing Serena Van Der Woodsen in Gossip Girl, as she dresses so much like her in real life.
“I dress just like Serena,” she told Nylon. “I own half her wardrobe, so it’s far too similar to the way I dress. I feel ridiculous at times with her because I’m, you know, killing someone or marrying someone, but I look like me. I’m like, ‘Oh, this is absurd’.”
Former Coronation Street actor Sean Wilson has claimed that ITV make the soap “on the cheap”.
The actor played Martin Platt on the soap for 21 years but is now a master cheesemaker.
The 44-year-old told the Swindon Advertiser: “Television has shot itself in the foot at the moment, it has spent a lots of money on the wrong things and has to now make things on the cheap, or in a reality show format – it’s fair to say Coronation Street has had to take that route but I had a lovely 21 years there.”
House actress Jennifer Morrison has admitted that she is confused by her exit from the show. Morrison is one of the original cast members on the show and her character Dr Allison Cameron has been written out after some troubled times with her on screen husband, Dr Chase.
Rumours have been circulating that Morrison’s departure is a temporary one, however speaking to Entertainment Weekly, she said: “I find the entire situation sort of confusing.”
Robert Pattinson has promised his legions of female fans that the Twilight ‘New Moon’ will contain lots of topless nipple shots.
Speaking at the movie’s press conference Pattinson said: “You’ve got a lot of nipple shots in this movie. I was really terrified – I hadn’t worked out at all. When I saw Taylor at the beginning of the year it was quite good for the movie because I did feel incredibly inadequate.
