When a rough‑and‑tumble Philly mechanic learns he’s heir to an English dukedom, sparks—and smoothies—fly. Johnny Payne, a grease‑stained auto technician whose evenings hum with karaoke, receives word that Prince William, Duke of Glasswick, claims him as his son and successor. Suddenly, Johnny’s world of neon bar lights collides with chandeliered halls and rolling green expanses.

On a museum visit, the teenage Rose baffles her mother when she’s moved by a painting’s focus on a Black woman; Mum sees a piece of pottery as the...

Channel 4 has cast Harry Potter star Natalia Tena and BAFTA winner Chanel Creswell as Rebekah Vardy and Coleen Rooney in its upcoming Wagatha Christie courtroom drama, with Michael Sheen set to play high-profile barrister David Sherborne.

Vardy v Rooney: A Courtroom will recreate the high-stakes UK High Court defamation case between the two earlier this year, with two sparring legal teams in the spotlight. The Wagatha Christie case was one of the most high-profile in recent history in the UK. Rooney famously tried to catch out Vardy for selling news stories about her to the tabloids using sleuth tactics, thus dubbed Wagatha Christie. Each day was covered extensively by the press and included many memorable moments.

The pair’s husbands, the England footballers Wayne Rooney and Jamie Vardy, will be played by Dion Lloyd and Marci Nagyszokolyai, while Simon Coury will play Rooney’s barrister Hugh Tomlinson.
