The NEW Doctor... Who?

The latest doctor, Matt Smith, recently announced his retirement from his role of The 11th Doctor on the greatly successful TV series, Doctor Who. But as that famous saying goes 'out with the old, in with the new' we can't help but ask the question WHO WILL BE THE REPLACEMENT? With it being such a huge TV series, the BBC are keen to keep info of the latest doctor a closely-guarded secret... That is, until this Sunday (4th August) at 7pm where there will be a live half-hour special presented by the lovely Zoe Ball which is due to reveal all. The show will include special guests such as the current Doctor, Matt Smith, Steven Moffat (Executive Producer), celebrity fans and actors who have previously taken on the role of The Doctor.

Although nothing has been confirmed the rumour-mill has being churning out some rather interesting names... One of which is the one-and-only OLIVIA COLEMAN. No, you did read that right. A female doctor? Why not! I'm sure feminists all over the world will love it and personally, so will I! If there was to be a female doctor, I couldn't think of anyone who would do the role more justice than 'Liv (we're on a first name basis).

Other names which have been mentioned include: Peter Capaldi, Dan Stevens and David Harewood. 

See the next actor to play The Doctor revealed on BBC1 on Sunday at 7pm. 

Celebrity Big Brother 2013

I have some very exciting news! Well, its debatable but still.

Names, (including Charlotte Crosby (from Geordie Shore) and Carol McGiffin (from Loose Women)), have been revealed to be rumours of who will enter the Big Brother house for this year's Celebrity series. Other names include Sophie Anderton and Rob Atkinson. There have also be rumours that some of the so-called 'Celebrities' will be getting up to six-figure payments for going on the show. Who knew Channel 5 had that kind of budget? Sounds like it could be an exciting series, then again, its never been the same since Davina stopped presenting it.

Celebrity Big Brother starts next month on Channel 5.

GEORDIE SHORE IS BACK

Yeeeeeeeey tonight is the night! Geordie Shore is back for series 6! Everyone's back and down under this series AND Jay is back. I look forward to it! Will Gaz and Charlotte finally get together? Will Ricci and Vicky sort out their differences? Who will come out on top (pardon the pun), the bucking squad or the cock capturers? So many unanswered questions.

Geordie Shore starts tonight on MTV at 10.00pm.

Skins: Fire

Wasn't that amazing?! Being a newbie to Skins I didn't know what to expect but Fire was definitely worth the watch.

Skins: Fire features different aspects of main character, Effy's, life. From her job, to her love life and her trouble dealing with her best friend being diagnosed with cancer.

I can't fault the actors in the series, as far as I was concerned they were all great BUT something I couldn't help but think was 'are there too many issues included in the series?' With themes of illness, trust, sexuality, relationships and crime there's a lot of possible things to relate to. But is there too much?

Comment and let me know what you think. 

Skins: Pure starts next Monday on E4 at 10.00pm.

Let's Do Lunch With Gino and Mel

This is why I love this show... Barely 1 minute into the show, Mel asks Gino if he watched Wimbledon yesterday he replied with this...

*cue shitty Italian accent* "No, see, I was on my own and when I'm on why own, well, you know, whats the point in watching two men play with 1 ball when I can watch one woman playing with 2 balls? You know it doesn't happen often enough, I'm on my own so sod the tennis"

COMEDY GOLD. Meanwhile, Mel is freaking put going "we're live, we're actually live, we're on air" before Gino bursts out with "YES WE ARE LIVE AND WELCOME TO LET'S DO LUNCH"

Check out 'Let's Do Lunch With Gino and Mel' on ITV1 now.

Tonight's Corrie Episode

First things first, apologies to the costume department on the cobble but WHAT ARE YOU THINKING. Two travesties of double denim in one night? I was slightly scarred to say the least... Anyways back to the stories.

I can't get enough of Roy's sleepwalking, its just such a weird storyline but I can't wait to see where it goes.

Now, onto something more serious. Faye. Definitely on the list of characters I simply can't stand on the cobbles. Right up there with Dev. Anyways, why is she staying with her Dad and not Anna? I feel so sorry for Anna because Tim (the dad) is so manipulating (oooh big word there). I hope in the end she goes to live with Anna and another surprise tram crash happens just as Tim is walking across the road hmmm....

Now last thing, the huge story everyone's on about, Kylie's baby, is it Davids? Or is it his brothers, Nick's? I'm glad we're seeing David's phycotic side come back out again AND I LOVE the fact that no one knows that he knows the big secret (you understand that?). I just wonder how crazy he's gonna end up going... Just saying, we haven't seen a murder in Corrie for a while...
