Heartstopper Star Bradley Riches Joins Emmerdale in Mystery Role!

A new group of stars are getting ready to enter the Celebrity Big Brother UK house this spring.

During the Love Island All Stars Season 2 finale, the eye logo for the 2025 edition of Cbbuk was revealed. The eye logo was similar to the one for the civilian series, which aired in Fall 2024, but this time with a star as the pupil.

Aj Odudu and Will Best are set to return to co-host the second season of the celebrity version of the Big Brother format since ITV picked up the show.

Netflix’s Heartstopper returns for a third season set in the world of Alice Oseman’s joyful comics in October 2024.

Season 2 arrived over a year ago amid the dual Hollywood strikes, meaning that talent couldn’t promote the show as its sophomore installment followed up the success of Season 1 on the streamer. Season 2 signaled a shift to more serious subjects that will be broached in Season 3.

A school trip to Paris, some new faces and Prom as well as various new and familiar relationship dynamics were tested in Season 2. Here’s what to remember before Heartstopper Season 3 comes out.

The first edition of Celebrity Big Brother UK on ITV has crowned its winner after 19 days.

Following the evictions of Zeze Miller and Marisha Wallace on Tuesday night, six housemates remained in the house and were in contention to take home the crown.

The British public started voting for their winner on Tuesday, but a shock eviction on Thursday night saw Heartstopper’s Bradley Riches exit the house before the final.

Only five finalists made it to the final: Colson Smith, David Potts, Fern Britton, Nikita Kuzmin, and Louis Walsh.

Gary Goldsmith, known as Kate Middleton's "bad uncle," was evicted first from Celebrity Big Brother UK. Gary expressed support for Kate Middleton and Prince William during his brief stint on the show. The royal family remains silent on Gary's participation in the show, but they were likely relieved by his early exit.

Amid questions about Kate Middlton's health and whereabouts, her uncle, Gary Goldsmith, has been competing on Celebrity Big Brother UK. The series first premiered in 2001 and premiered its twenty-third season on March 4, 2024. Competing against Gary, this season's celebrities include TV personality Sharon Osborn, Love Island UK star Ekin-Su CulCuloglu, and actor Bradley Riches.

Gary joined the cast of Celebrity Big Brother UK in its new season, which began airing on the ITV network on Monday night, competing against a dozen other celebrity contestants. The show will run for a total of 19 days and comes at a sensitive time for the royal family,...

Celebrity Big Brother returned for the first time in six years to 2.7M viewers last night, as Sharon Osbourne and Kate Middleton’s uncle entered the house.

The show was just ahead of the launch of the civilian Big Brother UK in October, which secured 2.5M viewers, according to Barb data supplied by overnights.tv.

Celebrity Big Brother, which peaked with 3M, will now have the benefit of airing nightly on ITV main channel for the next three weeks in the primetime 9 p.m. GMT (1 p.m. Pt) slot and be given a big push on streamer Itvx. The civilian Big Brother kicked off in the same slot in October but was then moved to ITV 2 and ratings naturally declined from there – averaging around 1M per night.

Warning: Spoilers for the Heartstopper season 2 finale

Isaac's discovery of his asexual and aromantic identity is a significant character arc in Heartstopper season 2. Isaac's struggle to understand his lack of romantic and sexual attraction challenges societal expectations. Meeting an artist who shares their experiences leads Isaac to find the language to express his identity and experience freedom.

While Heartstopper season 2 is full of memorable moments, Isaac's discovery of language that encapsulates his identity is among the show's most notable character arcs. Netflix's adaptation of Alice Oseman's webcomic-turned-graphic novel follows Charlie Spring (Joe Locke) and Nick Nelson (Kit Connor), teens who fall in love with each other at school. The world of Heartstopper is unlike other contemporary young adult series in that it trades all-consuming angst and grit for unbridled fun and queer joy. And at the heart of the show, and Nick and Charlie's close-knit friend group,...

Contains some plot details for Heartstopper season two but no real spoilers.

Despite featuring no superheroes, superpowers or elaborate plans to destroy Gotham City, Heartstopper was one of 2022’s most anticipated comic book adaptations, and its second season – out now on Netflix – was no different. Alice Oseman’s webcomic about two British high school boys who fall in love has an extremely devoted fanbase who only have to see a drawing of falling leaves – Charlie and Nick’s romantic motif – to spill over with excitement.

The Netflix show, written and produced by Oseman, was such a hit that it was immediately renewed for seasons two and three, meaning fans could follow the on-screen stories of beloved characters Elle, Tao, Tara, Darcy and Isaac, alongside those of Nick and Charlie, past their Gcse year and beyond.

In season two, the existing cast is joined by new characters Sahar, Felix and Naomi,...

Key takeaways: Heartstopper season two trailer reveals that Nick and Charlie are together but face challenges in accepting themselves and coming out to the world. The second season will also focus on other relationships, like Tara and Darcy's communication issues, Elle's confession of love to Tao, and a school trip to Paris that could bring both good and bad changes for everyone. The addition of new characters, including Nick's brother David and Charlie's ex-boyfriend Ben, hints at bigger challenges for the main couple to overcome in their romance. Heartstopper season two premieres on Netflix on August 3.

Love is in the air in Heartstopper season two trailer. Netflix is ready for the return of one of its most acclaimed teen series from last year, with Joe Locke and Kit Connor returning as the lovely Charlie Spring and Nick Nelson with much more romance, but a few new challenges.

At the end of season one,...

Heartstopper was renewed for a second and third season after only a month of premiering on Netflix. The show has a rare score of 100 percent on Rotten Tomatoes, drawing praise for its positive portrayals of LGBTQ+ representation. The creator and author of the graphic novel series, Alice Oseman, returns to write the upcoming season, continuing the love story between Charlie and Nick.

The last episode had Charlie (Kit Conner) and Nick (Joe Locke) finally get back together, admitting their true feelings. Tao (William Fao) and Ellie (Yasmin Finney), Charlie's best friends, also share a sweet moment that might mean something more in the future. And Ellie's friends from her new school, Darcy (Kizzy Edgell) and Tara (Corinna Brown), finally come out as a couple. But this time around, the friend group is venturing off to Paris, the city of love.

The return of one of Netflix's best series isn't too far away.

As previously reported, Heartstopper Season 2 premieres on August 3, 2023.

Unlike The Witcher and You, the second season of the coming-of-age dramedy will drop its entire season on that date.

Netflix shared the first scenes of the season premiere on Saturday at Tudum.

The sneak peek begins with Charlie (Joe Locke) waking up to a sweet good morning message from his new boyfriend, Nick (Kit Connor).

As the scene progresses, we see them send messages back and forth as they prepare for the day ahead before ultimately crossing paths at school.

If the teaser proves anything, their relationship is still flourishing.

Far too often, needless drama is thrown into TV relationships all in the name of creating -- you guessed it -- drama.

The wait is over! Well, almost. Netflix on Monday announced that Season 2 of its beloved LGBTQ+ romance Heartstopper drops on Thursday, Aug. 3.

Based on Alice Oseman’s webcomic, the series follows the love stories of teenage BFFs-turned-boyfriends Nick Nelson and Charlie Spring and their peers. Upon its release in 2022, Heartstopper won rave reviews — including one from TVLine (read ours here) — and was soon issued not a one- but a two-season pickup by the streamer. The show went on to score five Children’s and Family Emmy Awards, among them, statuettes for Oseman, Kit Connor (who plays Nick) and Olivia Colman...

Netflix's teen series "Heartstopper" won hearts far and wide, and fans can get even more excited now, as production for the second season has officially wrapped, meaning its return can't be too far off. On Dec. 2, Netflix posted a photo on Instagram of actors Kit Connor and Joe Locke with writer Alice Oseman, alongside the caption, "And that's a wrap on Heartstopper Season 2… à bientôt!

When "Heartstopper" hit Netflix earlier this year, it was nothing short of a phenomenon. The adorable, emotional teen romance was the title on everyone's lips for weeks after its first season debuted, so it was no surprise when it was renewed for more episodes just a month after it aired. But fans will still have to wait a while longer for the next chapter of the story of high schoolers Charlie (Joe Locke) and Nick (Kit Connor), as season 2 only recently entered production.

Still, even in the off-season, "Heartstopper" is worth celebrating. The show was just nominated for nine Emmys at the newly launched Children and Family Emmys Awards, an offshoot of the prestigious award show that's designed specifically to honor media aimed at kids and teens. Connor and Locke are among the nominees, along with their co-stars Yasmin Finney, William Gao, and Olivia Colman.

British stage actor Nima Taleghani (“Cyrano de Bergerac”) will play Mr. Farouk, one of the teachers at Truham Grammar School, where Nick and Charlie attend with their friends Tao (William Gao) and Isaac (Tobie Donovan).

After a nationwide casting call, newcomer Leila Khan will play Sahar Zahid, a student from the Higgs Girls school, where Nick and Charlie’s friends Elle (Yasmin Finney), Tara (Corinna Brown) and Darcy (Kizzy Edgell) attend.
