Now is your chance to find out how to sing like Julie Garland, deal with being Edina Monsoon’s Pa and play a critically acclaimed chicken
It surprised a lot of people when Bubbles, the dippy personal assistant from Absolutely Fabulous, turned out to have a belter of a singing voice. Jane Horrocks showed off her chops in the 1998 film Little Voice having already conquered the stage with the lead role in The Rise and Fall of Little Voice.
Since then, Horrocks has become part of the fabric of the nation. On the big screen, she’s voiced a knitting-loving chicken in 2000’s Chicken Run and a duck opposite Bill Murray’s Garfield. In the flesh, she appeared in Dexter Fletcher’s Proclaimers jukebox musical Sunshine on Leith, and opposite Rob Brydon in 2018 sports comedy Swimming With Men. On stage she appeared in Stephen Poliakoff drama Sweet Panic and sang songs by Joy Division,...

Hit U.S. Gameshow ‘Password’ Coming To ITV
Hit U.S. guessing game Password is coming to the UK’s ITV. Never Mind the Buzzcocks producer Talkback is behind the ITV version, which will see Alan Carr and Daisy May Cooper take on the Resident Team Captains role, with Stephen Mangan hosting. Password is a word association game in which captains pair with contestants and give one-word clues to help their teammate guess a mystery “password.” The teams must try and get on each other’s wavelengths as they take it in turns to guess the all-important password across multiple rounds. Password has aired in the U.S. for decades and was most recently revived on NBC last year, with Keke Palmer hosting and Jimmy Fallon captaining. Password was created by Bob Stewart for Goodson-Todman Productions and is now owned by Fremantle.

Production designer Patrick O’Keefe drew inspiration from brutalist architecture, graphic artist Syd Mead and British punk band The Sex Pistols when animating the world of “Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse.”
As Miles Morales crosses path with different Spider-People from other dimensions, it was up to O’Keefe and his team of animators to create visual worlds that reflect those counterparts.
With Variety, he breaks down the looks of each world and shares his favorite easter eggs that pay homage to the Canadian animators who worked on the film.

Last month, Mock The Week was cancelled after 17 years on air. The satirical comedy was only one of a flurry of modern panel shows featuring teams of comedians, spawning from the format used in Have I Got News For You that emerged during the nineties and noughties. Taking cues from long-running Hignfy which hit TV screens in 1990, popular series such as Never Mind the Buzzcocks and the anarchic, absurd Shooting Stars were followed by the likes of Qi, 8 Out Of 10 Cats, Would I Lie To You?, Celebrity Juice and, of course, Mock The Week. But with ratings plummeting and cancellations abounding, is it high time the genre called it a day?

These shows were initially a great way to finish off your evening after a long hard day at school or work, just like a late night chat show helps to wind our American friends down after the watershed.

The members of Gang of Four would likely be the first to tell you that you do not need an extravagant Gang of Four box set. They’re the ones who released a 45 sarcastically titled “To Hell With Poverty” and backed it up with “Capital (It Fails Us Now),” a lampoon about a newborn baby reaching for its credit card. They skewered advertising culture on “I Found That Essence Rare” and quipped, “The problem of leisure, what to do for pleasure, ideal love a new purchase” on “Natural’s Not in It.

Kate Nash is recalling a nightmare she had recently. In the dream, the musician and star of the Netflix series Glow remembers being on a raft in a dark tunnel, surrounded by man-eating killer whales.
“I escaped the tunnel, and I was running around in this carpark, with all these trailers, that looked a little bit like the Glow trailer lot,” she explains. “And I was really scared the killer whales were gonna come for me, even though I was on pavement now. My drummer opened up a trailer door,...

Thanks to more than three decades of teeth-gnashing growls, industrial-strength guitar riffs and excoriating commentary on the record industry, Steve Albini has established himself as one of rock's most fiercely independent – and genuinely fierce – iconoclasts. His current band, noise-rock thumpsters Shellac, puts out records without promotion or aplomb ("no free lunch," offers the only Shellac-related press release in the past seven years) and matches musical vehemence with darkly humorous lyrics and visceral songcraft.

We're not going to lie - when we found out that Zoe Birkett was entering the Big Brother house earlier this week, the Digital Spy office got very excited indeed. What a blast from the past - and how much the "little podgy kid from Pop Idol with the dreadlocks" (her words, not ours) has grown up in the last 13 years. But it got us thinking - what happened to the other contestants? We put on our deerstalker, pulled out our magnifying glass and started digging...
