In the beginning there was Winnie The Pooh: Blood & Honey. Then, there was Winnie the Pooh_: Blood & Honey 2_. And now, as Rhys Frake-Waterfield — the Kevin Feige of effed-up fairytale films — envisioned back in early 2023, the Twisted Childhood Universe of public domain based horrors is set to expand with Peter Pan's Neverland Nightmare. Written and directed by Scott Jeffrey (not to be confused with Muppet Babies helmsman Jeffrey Scott), the Tcu's latest childhood crusher is set to see Martin Portlock bring to our screens a slightly more murderous version of the boy who never grew up than Disney's take on the J.M. Barrie fairytale. Check out the bloody first trailer below;

Welp — we don't know about his shadow, but it sure does look like our pal Peter has found his dark side here! Whilst theorists have long contested a dark truth at the heart of Barrie's book (that...

Kevin O'Morrison, a playwright and character actor who appeared in such films as The Set-Up and Sleepless in Seattle, has died. He was 100.

O'Morrison died Dec. 11 at a senior living facility in Lynnwood, Wash., his cousin Jim Davidson told The Hollywood Reporter.

O'Morrison played a prizefighter in the classic film noir boxing drama The Set-Up (1949), directed by Robert Wise and starring Robert Ryan, and was another pugilist in The Golden Gloves Story (1950). In Nora Ephron's Sleepless in Seattle (1993), he portrayed Meg Ryan's father, Cliff.

Occasionally billed as Kenny O'Morrison, he made his movie debut in...

Russ Abbot, Bullseye, Noel Edmonds and a film we all watched in the same room. Christmas TV was more exciting in the 80s...

Cast your mind back to when Christmas Day wasn't about Doctor Who followed by sticking something on Netflix until it was time to go watch the annual fist fight outside the pub.

In the 80s, Christmas was about seeing which fantastic fare the TV had decided to bless us with. Of course, the more prepared among us knew this well in advance, having eagerly pored over the Radio Times/TV Times to check that Jimmy Cricket's Family Laugh 'n' Waz would be shown. There it was – right after Reflections On The Eucharist With The Reverend Paul Leyland.

Jenny has a few tips for successfully rebooting some classic gameshows...

Game shows are one of the few formats that can withstand being rebooted. Some people might even argue that game show reboots are becoming necessary, given the calibre of new ideas being farted out onto the screen. For every Pointless, there's Dale's All Star Celebrity Family Kerplunk On Fire (actually I'd watch that).

See related Doctor Who: Moffat on budget issues, advice for Chibnall Doctor Who: Phoebe Waller-Bridge is now the joint favourite

There are certain shows that could make up a stellar, unbeatable game show line-up, and they should all be brought back immediately. Some brave souls have tried to bring some of these shows back, with varying degrees of success. In some cases perhaps the execution needed a bit of tweaking, but the decision to reboot was the right one.

Do this year's Celebrity Big Brother housemates remind you of someone? We might just have the answer...

1. Stevi Ritchie & Droopy the Dog

2. Chloe Jasmine & Rhydian from X Factor

3. Janice Dickinson & Steve Tyler

4. Daniel Baldwin & Paul Hollywood

5. Gail Porter & Mike Wazowski from Monsters Inc

13. Jenna Jameson & Hilary Duff

14. Chris Ellison & Locke from Lost

Celebrity Big Brother airs on Channel 5. Do the housemates remind you of anyone? Let us know below!

Move over Hannah Elizabeth and Jon Clark, there's a new hormonal couple in the house getting hot and heavy in the hideaway (and making us feel a little bit nauseous in the process).

Step forward love's young dream, Jordan Ring and Zoe Basia Brown.

Towards the end of last night's (June 28) show, which saw Jess Hayes and Josh Ritchie argue drunkenly over Josh's new relationship with Naomi Ball, Jordan and Zoe escaped to the secret hideaway bedroom for some lovin'.

Jordan soon discovered that the bathroom had no camera, and enticed Zoe in with boasts of a big, blue spider. Which - after some mild confusion from both Zoe and the viewer - was most definitely a euphemism.

At first Zoe wasn't prepared to get out of bed for a big, blue spider - and frankly, we didn't blame her - but after Jordan continued to effuse about this "weird,...

They're back! Brian Belo, Helen Wood and Nikki Grahame just couldn't stay away from the Big Brother house, so they returned tonight as part of this week's big Time Warp twist.

But what did they say before they went into the house tonight? Who are they loving and who are they loathing? You can find out right here by checking out our guide to the tricksy trio:

Brian Belo

Original series: Big Brother 8

Favourite housemates this series: "Jade, because she's sparky. She speaks up. And I do like Marc. He just makes me laugh. He's like a cartoon character. That's what you need in a good housemate... I think I'll be friends with Marc and Danny."

Who will he not get on with? "I don't know how the other boys are going to take to me... Jack, Joel."

Make love not war: "I'm not going to cause any rows. It's...

We'd all guessed it, hadn't we? When Big Brother announced that three former housemates would be returning as part of the special Time Warp twist, everyone instantly started talking about BB7's iconic Nikki Grahame - and sure enough, she will be heading in tonight.

"I'm so excited," Nikki told Digital Spy on Thursday. "I cannot wait. I'm literally obsessed with this series."

And it doesn't look like Nikki will be holding back, either. Read on to find out what she had to say about the housemates (it's not all flattering), how she'll spend her time in the house and much, much more...

If we're counting correctly, this is going to be the fifth time you've entered the house. Are you not bored of it?

"Never bored of it! I'd take up residency if they'd give it to me. Each experience is totally different. I'm at an advantage in this...

It's sad news for Miranda Hart fans, as the actress and comedian revealed she won't be hosting a Generation Game reboot anytime soon.

While Hart revealed she had spoken to the BBC about the show, she said that the story "got massively blown out of order".

Speaking to BBC News about her negotiations with the broadcaster, Hart said: "It was literally an informal chat with the BBC.

"We talked about it and whether the format would work for a modern audience - but that is literally all it was, just a chat, nothing more."

Hart added: "It got massively blown out of order in the press and, no, we are not doing it right now."

The classic game show, which has previously been presented by the likes of Sir Bruce Forsyth, Larry Grayson and Jim Davidson, was reported to be returning last year.

The Miranda star was previously rumoured to...

Jim Davidson wanted to have ''extra nostrils surgically added'' to his face so he could take more cocaine. The former 'Celebrity Big Brother' star has opened up about his past drug addictions to reveal he was so hooked on the illicit substance that he wanted extra nostrils so he could snort even more. He shared: ''I couldn't take enough. Drugs made me feel like Superman. Life was just one long, long party. I'd end up staying up for days on end, hanging out with people I didn't even know. ''All that mattered was the drugs. When I sniffed a line it gave...

Jim Davidson has described the media coverage of his arrest as "the worst moment" of his life.

The comedian was arrested as part of Operation Yewtree in 2013 on suspicion of sexual offences, but no further action was taken against him.

In a preview of his appearance on ITV's O'Brien, Davidson says: "The police were fine. It was just that those headlines were awful. That was the worst moment of my life when I picked up that paper, because it just wasn't true.

"They didn't even bring charges in the end. It lasted 12 months and half a million quid, thank you."

Asked how it affected him, Davidson replied: "It wasn't very nice. It was horrible, absolutely rotten.

"It didn't do anything to me really, because I knew I was innocent.

"That was one thing, but what was the problem was that I thought there were demons in the air. I thought,...

Jim Davidson has revealed he would love to present Top Gear now that Jeremy Clarkson has been axed.

Speaking on ITV's new daytime show O'Brien, Davidson said his ban from driving would prevent him from doing the job however.

During his appearance on the new topical debate show, the television personality also said that if it wasn't for Ant & Dec, he would be back on screens on Saturday nights.

O'Brien is presented by journalist and broadcaster James O'Brien, and will see a mixture of public figures such as celebrities and politicians debate topics affecting Britain.

The first of ten 60-minute shows will air on March 30 and will focus on the topic of racism.

In the episode, guest Davidson is asked whether he is racist and discusses his character of Chalky.

Presenter O'Brien also confronts former Ukip councillor Rozanne Duncan and Ukip Mep Bill Etheridge.

O'Brien said: "I hate the way...

Eamonn Holmes has quizzed the Celebrity Big Brother housemates as part of their News task.

The first celebs to join Eamonn at the newsdesk were Keith Chegwin, Perez Hilton and Katie Hopkins, who were firstly asked which housemates they thought were being themselves.

Perez said he was being himself, but admitted that he had "been far from happy" during his time in the house.

When questioned about her relationship with Perez, Katie Hopkins admitted: "In the last couple of days, Perez hasn't been such a tw*t… but ultimately my hatred for Perez is still very deep.

"I can't stand the man, I think he should be kicked out of the house, there's nothing about him that I like."

Those comments prompted Keith to wonder if the pair have been "play acting", with Katie Hopkins then angrily questioning if they have actually been seeing the real Keith.

Kavana was the next housemate Eamonn quizzed,...

Watch out Katie Hopkins, Katie Price has officially entered the building...

The former glamour model has been unveiled as the new Celebrity Big Brother housemate following tonight's live eviction (January 16) and we're anticipating what's going to kick off between the pair.

Will they be at each others' throats throughout, or become CBB's most unlikely chums since Jedward and Tara Reid or Dappy and Jim Davidson?

Katie Price and Katie Hopkins definitely have one thing in common - making inappropriate and controversial comments.

But who is the most offensive? We attempt to measure with their most offensive quotes below:

Katie Price on poor old Danny Cipriani's manhood in an extract from autobiography Love, Lipstick and Lies:

"In my experience he was a bit - erm – lean in the most obvious departments. That's why I nicknamed him Danny Chipolata. He can no longer hit any of the right spots on the rugby...

One of my happiest memories of TV as a child was the Stars In Their Eyes grand final night. The Matthew Kelly years of the show may look rather quaint in an era of spinning chairs, dancing celebrities and X Factor shoutiness, but it was actually ahead of its time as an entertainment format.

From turning Reg the butcher and Barbara from accounts into stars for five minutes, to public phone votes for the winner, it was in many ways a proto-Pop Idol and X Factor.

The key difference between Stars In Their Eyes and what followed was the complete absence of cynicism or profiteering. It probably helped Basil from Basingstoke raise a few more quid with his George Formby covers act, but there was never any pretense that the show would be life-changing.

Like most Saturday night shows in the pre-Popstars/Simon Cowell/Big Brother era, the heart...

Jim Davidson has criticised the BBC for having a left-wing bias and said that there isn't enough working class comedy on TV anymore.

The Celebrity Big Brother winner and stand-up comic, who hosted primetime BBC shows such as The Generation Game and Big Break in the '90s, said that modern TV is dominated by university-educated talent.

Watch Jim Davidson talk about political correctness, the BBC and Dappy:

"The BBC are all lefties really. If you sliced the BBC in half, the Guardian newspaper would fall out," he told Digital Spy.

"There was a time when I was growing up, when comedy came from the working class streets of the big cities. Billy Connolly, me, Jasper Carrott, Jethro. All working class lads. And now, they all come from universities and all us old guys are old hat."

Davidson added: "And who is the worst? Me. Since Bernard Manning died,...

2014 is almost over - we've had Christmas and everything - but what kind of year has it been? Well, if you're talking about reality TV, it's been pretty bloody spectacular. From scandals involving paper skeletons and baked Alaskas to shock winners and surprise losers, 2014 had a bit of everything. It's time for a little trip down memory lane, so strap in and join us as we revisit the best reality TV moments from the past 12 months...

Jim Davidson wins Celebrity Big Brother - and Lee Ryan loses it

This year's Celebrity Big Brother prompted a lot of soul searching as Jim Davidson ended up taking the crown - after striking up a bromance with Dappy. But it wasn't actually this winning moment that made January's CBB so captivating - instead, it was Lee Ryan's inability to keep it in his pants (and Casey Batchelor's mum shrieking: "He's mugging you off,...

It started at the end of the summer, and now we're just days (you could even count in hours if you're really keen) away from Christmas Day. And like the arrival of Santa down the chimney, we couldn't be much more excited about the Strictly Come Dancing 2014 finale.

Caroline Flack, Simon Webbe, Frankie Bridge and Mark Wright are this year's Final 4 preparing to duke it out on the dancefloor and shake their tailfeathers until they won't shake no more for our votes.

Why Mark Wright should win Strictly

Why Frankie Bridge should win Strictly

Why Simon Webbe should win Strictly

Why Caroline Flack should win Strictly

Only one person can win and although Caroline and Frankie are the clear bookies' favourites, they are by no means home and dry. It will probably come down to those dreaded showdances, which can make or break a celebrities whole Strictly journey.

Jim Davidson got ''really depressed'' in the 'Celebrity Big Brother' house. The 61-year-old comedian won the 13th series of the star-studded reality TV show earlier this year despite clashing with Linda Nolan on several occasions, and the star admitted he would've quit the programme if it hadn't become such good friends with N-Dubz rapper Dappy Contostavlos. He said: ''I didn't think I was going to win, I didn't think I was even going to come close. ''I didn't think I would win especially when the arguments with Linda were kicking off and I got really depressed. ''I did think, 'What...

Comedy legend Jim Davidson returns with his brand new DVD Back & Live! filmed during his No Further Action UK tour. Jim takes a wry look at what life is like under investigation in the public eye as he tells the story of his year from hell following his arrest by Operation Yewtree detectives.

Miranda Hart is searching for families of all ages to take part in a new BBC game show.

The comic actress has been rumoured to be in line to front a new version of The Generation Game on BBC One, but this has yet to be officially confirmed.

The BBC announced today that Hart is looking for different family groups to apply for an upcoming entertainment show.

"We're looking for all types of family set-ups," the announcement reads. "This can be mother/father and children, nan, aunt, son and partner or could even include 'Auntie Pat from down the road'... who is really just mum's best friend from the bingo.

"When choosing your family/team please remember that we're looking for teams of all ages with at least two generations and the team must also include both male and female contestants. The generations could be nan and grandson, mum and son's partner Sue,...

Gary Busey is getting better and better at reality-tv competitions. The actor, whose performance in 1978's The Buddy Holly Story earned him an Oscar nomination for best actor, won the 14th edition of the British series Celebrity Big Brother on Friday. He becomes the first American to emerge victorious on the show. Last season's winner was British comedian Jim Davidson. Busey beat out a few Americans to win this season's title, including reality star Stephanie Pratt (The Hills) and Emmy-winning actor Leslie Jordan (Will & Grace). British boxer Audley Harrison was the season's runner-up. Busey finished in ninth place on NBC's

Channel 5 has unveiled the first images from inside the new Celebrity Big Brother house.

Ahead of tonight's (August 18) launch, the house has been given a golden and sparkly makeover since the traditional series ended on Friday.

While the layout remains largely the same, the new house has includes brand new furniture.

To match its celebrity occupants, the bathroom is now covered in stars, while the Diary Room has a golden shine.

The 14th edition of Celebrity Big Brother will begin with a live launch show hosted by Emma Willis at 9.05pm tonight (August 18).

Rumoured contestants have ranged from Hollywood actor Gary Busey, George Gilbey from Gogglebox, Eurovision champion Conchita Wurst and Benefits Street's White Dee.

Channel 5 previously promised a "glamorous VIP makeover" for the house, but also warned its celebrity contestants that they "should be prepared for countless twists, turns and tough tasks guaranteed to cause drama and tension...

Paul Daniels and Debbie McGee in the hot tub with Gary Busey; Helen Flanagan weeping relentlessly in the Diary Room; and David McIntosh parading around in Those short shorts.... the possibilities for this series of Celebrity Big Brother are endless.

So, as we eagerly await for the mystery(ish) celebrity guests to enter the famous house in Elstree, we've decided to reminisce with our favourite ever star contestants below:

1. Jackie Stallone

"Yeah, Jackie," were the only two words uttered from the side of Jackie's heavily siliconed mouth as she entered the house, draped in fur and dripping in jewels. Her entrance soon became one of the most memorable moments from the entire series.

It was part-Jackie's presence, part-Jackie's face that really shocked Brigitte Nielsen back on the show in 2005 when her former mother-in-law entered the house on day five.

Fellow housemates had to refer to Jackie as the Queen Mother,...

Miranda Hart has downplayed rumours that she will host a rebooted version of The Generation Game for the BBC.

The classic game show, which has previously been presented by the likes of Sir Bruce Forsyth, Larry Grayson and Jim Davidson, was reported earlier today to be returning next year for the first time since 2002.

The Miranda star was rumoured to be in talks for the role earlier this year, and appeared on a one-off special of the show for Comic Relief in 2011.

BBC One controller Charlotte Moore told The Guardian: "It will be a modern reinvention of The Generation Game. Miranda will bring a very different flavour to it.

"Her wit and spirit behind it will naturally move it into the modern era. Miranda is brilliant at engaging with people, she loves that interaction. She'll be brilliant."

Moore added of the new Generation Game: "I promise you it won't be predictable.

Channel 5 has unveiled a trailer for the new series of Celebrity Big Brother.

The promo - a montage of previous famous housemates - does not state who will take part this month but confirms that the 14th run will begin on Monday, August 18 at 9pm.

17 rumoured housemates for Celebrity Big Brother's 2014 summer series

Emma Willis will continue to host the main show, with Rylan Clark and Luisa Zissman appearing on Bit on the Side.

The new celebrity series will begin three days after the current 'civilian' series ends on Friday (August 15).

Channel 5 has promised a "glamorous VIP makeover" for the house, but also warned its contestants that they "should be prepared for countless twists, turns and tough tasks guaranteed to cause drama and tension from day one".

Rumoured contestants have included George Gilbey from Gogglebox, Misfits actress Lauren Socha, Eurovision champion Conchita Wurst and Benefits Street's White Dee.

The start date for the new series of Celebrity Big Brother has been confirmed by Channel 5.

A new group of famous faces will take up residence in the famous house on Monday, August 18 at 9pm.

Emma Willis will continue to host the main show, with Rylan Clark and Luisa Zissman appearing on Bit on the Side.

The latest celebrity series will begin just three days after the end of the 'civilian' series, which will draw to a close on Friday, August 15.

Channel 5 has unveiled the brand new eye logo for Celebrity Big Brother.

The new logo features a starry eye in the form of a paparazzo's camera.

The 14th edition of Celebrity Big Brother will begin in mid-August after the current 'civilian' version has concluded, with a live launch show hosted by Emma Willis.

Channel 5 has promised a "glamorous VIP makeover" for the house, but also warned its celebrity contestants that they "should be prepared for countless twists, turns and tough tasks guaranteed to cause drama and tension from day one".

Rumoured contestants have included George Gilbey from Gogglebox, Misfits actress Lauren Socha, Eurovision champion Conchita Wurst and Benefits Street's White Dee.

X Factor winner James Arthur recently revealed that he had turned down an offer to appear on the show.

Jim Davidson won the previous edition of the series in January, beating Ollie Locke and Dappy in the final.

Twice a year we get all excited over the rumoured names linked to Celebrity Big Brother, only to often have our hopes cruelly dashed upon discovering it was plain lies or said star refused the offer.

James Arthur has just revealed that although he's a fan of the Channel 5 show, he turned down a spot on the upcoming series. Which would have made compulsive viewing.

So here are 10 other celebrities who rejected the chance to enter the famous Big Brother house in Boreham Wood:

1 & 2. Christopher Biggins & Joan Collins

Christopher Biggins revealed that he turned down an offer to star in CBB along with Joan Collins - it would have been like Julian Clary and Julie Goodyear all over again, with double the glamour and bitchiness.

Biggins, who won I'm a Celebrity in 2007, claims that he was offered £300,000 to take part on the condition that he enter the house with friend Joan Collins,...

It seems like only yesterday that we were "celebrating" Jim Davidson's victory in Celebrity Big Brother, but we're already back in Elstree, this time for the "normal" version of the show.

Join Digital Spy for our live blog of night one below, complete with Power Trip theme and host Emma Willis dressed like a 1970s BBC Two futuristic satire on fascism/Sexy Sailor* (*delete as appropriate).

23:31And that is that - tune back in tomorrow for more from the Bb Power Trip house, including the injection of six new housemates. See you then!

23:29Suitcase time! But only the "Power Housemate" our Pauline will get hers. I wonder if that will drive a wedge between her and her power-less peers...?

23:29"Tamara?" Matthew asks. "Yeh," Danielle concedes.

23:27Matthew is having a natter with Danielle his glass box. She says that there are two people she's going to clash with in the house.

Miranda Hart is said to be in talks to host a revival of The Generation Game for the BBC.

The sitcom actress and comedian is tipped to follow in the footsteps of previous presenters Sir Bruce Forsyth, Larry Grayson and Jim Davidson in the reboot of the classic family programme, which originally launched in 1971.

The show - which last aired in 2002 - saw four teams, each consisting of two family members, compete against each other in a series of challenges in a bid to win prizes.

The BBC has confirmed that the revival is on the cards but insisted that nothing has been confirmed.

A spokesperson said: "It's in the early ideas stage at the moment. Nothing is confirmed and no series [is] planned."

Call The Midwife actress Hart revealed her love of The Generation Game when she interviewed Forsyth for BBC One special When Miranda Met Bruce last year.

"Bruce...

It's game show heaven on television right now. Not only do we have all sorts of new formats making their way to screen, but some old favourites are getting a second lease of life, too - from Fifteen to One (airing daily on Channel 4) to the second series of the revived Catchphrase (Sundays on ITV.) But it got us thinking - what other game shows would we like to see return to our living rooms?

Well, we asked that very question to Fifteen to One's Sandi Toksvig and Catchphrase's Stephen Mulhern - and then had a bit of office debate about our own favourites...

You Bet! - Stephen Mulhern (Host, Catchphrase)

"This is an easy question: You Bet! It was one of my favourite TV shows and Matthew Kelly was one of my favourite presenters. I love it.

"I can give you some great examples that still amaze me to this day.

Britain's Got Talent returns for its eighth series this weekend with the usual band of oddballs and aspiring stars trying out for the formidable judging panel.

Wett 'n' Wilde

Things didn't get off to the best of starts with this act. It is never appropriate to ask a pair of pensioners: "Who is wet(t) and who is wild(e)?" and we messed up by keeping quiet after Pamela revealed herself to be 66 1/2, to which she responded, "You're supposed to say, 'You don't look it'". But once we'd got over that awkwardness, Wett 'n' Wilde were an absolute pleasure and...

Jim Davidson and Katie Hopkins will take part in the latest edition of Channel 5's series of live controversial debates.

Tonight's show - The Big 'Can't Pay' Debt Debate: Live - will be hosted by Nick Ferrari and focus on the debt faced by families, who is to blame and how members of the public feel about the issue.

Davidson, who was previously declared bankrupt, will appear on the show alongside former footballer Lee Hendrie and Eddie 'The Eagle' Edwards, both of whom have struggled with financial problems.

Meanwhile, Hopkins will appear on the show alongside Liz Jones, Rosie Millard, Labour MP Paul Blomfield and the head of the British Bankers Association Anthony Browne.

Channel 5's Guy Davies said: "Viewers want to see these topics thrown into the bull ring, and broadcasting them live really makes Channel 5 feel alive. These key issues attract heat and vigorous argument on all sides,...

Jim Davidson is in talks to relaunch his '90s game show 'Big Break'. The 60-year-old comedian could be set to bring back the Saturday night snooker-themed series nearly 12 years after it first went off the air in 2002, but instead of returning to BBC One it could move to Channel 5 following his 'Celebrity Big Brother' victory in January.

Spencer Matthews has told Digital Spy that he is not interested in following fellow Made in Chelsea star Ollie Locke into Celebrity Big Brother - and has rejected numerous offers to appear.

Matthews admitted that moving into the Elstree house is "not something [he'd] particularly enjoy", as he is not a fan of the Channel 5 show.

Asked at the 'Kate Moss at The Savoy' photographic exhibition last night (January 30) if he'd take part in Big Brother, Matthews said: "Not at this point in my career.

"They've offered it a couple of times, which is very kind of them - please keep the offers rolling. But it's not quite right for me at the minute.

"It's not something I think I'd particularly enjoy and I don't really watch the show."

Matthews went on to congratulate Locke for his Big Brother success, and said he is hopeful that the star will get together with fellow housemate Sam Faiers.
