Channel 4 has picked up a new six-part drama currently titled The Gathering from the acclaimed writer and director Helen Walsh.

Set on Merseyside, the drama focuses on a group of teens from disparate backgrounds, each of whom could have committed a crime, along with their parents – who give equal cause for suspicion. The series is produced by the award-winning World Productions, which is responsible for hits such as the BBC’s Line of Duty, Save Me, and Vigil.

“We are thrilled to be working with the brilliant Helen Walsh and World Productions on this exciting series; The Gathering which forms part of our strategy to commission drama which also appeals to younger viewers,” said Caroline Hollick, Head of Drama, Channel 4.

“Through this absorbing story, with Helen’s beautifully drawn, real, and relatable characters, the series looks at how family, friendship, and aspiration is influenced and shaped by the highs and lows of modern-day parenting.

Anne Heche's tragic death following a car crash earlier this month left many with questions.

Now, we have some clarity.

The death of the Men in Trees star at 53 has officially been ruled an accident.

The Los Angeles County Medical Examiner-Coroner released a report on Wednesday confirming as much.

Heche's cause of death is listed as inhalation and thermal injuries from a fiery car crash earlier this month.

What's more, the report states that it was an accident.

It says that Heche suffered a "sternal fracture due to blunt trauma" from the car crash.

Sternal fractures typically occur after the chest strikes the steering wheel in motor vehicle collisions.

Heche was behind the wheel of her Mini Cooper when she crashed into a home in the Mar Vista area of Los Angeles.

The car and the home caught fire.

It was so severe that it took 59 firefighters over an hour to control.

The Brave has an uphill battle to find an audience and that may result in this turning into a show that a lot of people wish they had watched once it gets a few episodes in and struggles in the ratings. It’s fantastically niche for a start, because no matter how much it tries to wedge itself into the mold of popular cop shows, special forces hits and extraction missions just aren’t everyone’s cup of tea.

If that weren’t enough, there is an air of the formulaic about the series which might not go over too well simply because the jump from the war room to the streets and back again reminds too much of too many shows.

Then we have to add in the idea that there are those out there who may be wishing that we would just stop trying to make Anne Heche happen.

Michael Landes (Save Me, Hooten & the Lady) has landed a series regular role opposite Lauren Graham in Fox's single-camera comedy pilot Linda From Hr in a recasting.

Sounds like “The Lego Movie Sequel” is going to the business factory. “BoJack Horseman” creator Raphael Bob-Waksberg has been hired to rewrite the animated comedy’s script, the first draft of which was written by producers Phil Lord and Christopher Miller, who directed the first film. (Everything isn’t awesome in that one, apparently.) Variety first broke the news.

The move marks Bob-Waksberg’s first foray into film, though he previously worked on such shows as “Adult Hospital” and “Save Me” prior to creating his animated Netflix series. Rob Schrab is taking the reins from Lord and Miller, who are in the early stages of their Han Solo spinoff.

I blame Lost for most of the problems with Dig, USA‘s new investigation thriller, but frankly, I blame Lost for a lot of things.

The show is the latest entrant in the limited-run mystery genre, and revolves around Peter Connelly (Jason Isaacs), an FBI agent working in Israel, finding himself caught up in a bizarre conspiracy that spans the globe. Having caught sight of a redhead, who sticks out like a sore thumb among the crowds in Israel, Connelly follows her to the dig she’s been working on. It’s a massive archeological exploration of caves under the city. They stumble on an odd religious rite being performed by people who aren’t supposed to be there.

It isn’t as odd as it might seem to viewers, because we’ve already been introduced to some very “old school” Jews (no, really, really old school) who are fantastically...
