A Skywalker will rise
The ninth main Star Wars film will bear the title of Rise of Skywalker. The film has a lot of expectations to deal with after the furious backlash from fans over previous Stars Wars film The Last Jedi treatment of beloved character such as the turning of Luke Skywalker into a mistranhopic hermit. The new film will see the return of a couple of familiar faces of the series. One is the previously announced return of Billy Dee Williams as intergalactic rogue Lando however the big surprise is the reappearance of Emperor Palpatine as played by Ian McDarmid. The Emperor of courser died in Return of the Jedi so this has led to frenzied fan speculation about the circumstances. We shall know when Rise of Skywalker is released in cinemas this Christmas.

Despite starring Hollywood star Richard Gere the latest episode of the BBC2 drama MotherFatherSon was seen by just over a half a million viewers, that figure made BBC2 rank last of the 5 main channels in the time slot. The drama sees Gere playing a media mogul who finds himself at the centre of various traumatic events. The failure of MotherFatherSon brings to mind the failure last year of BBC1's Press another drama about newspapers. Perhaps the subject is not for viewers tastes.

Madge sings for Europe but not USA
In an impressive move it has been announced that Madonna will be the interval act at this year's Eurovison Song Contest. With the odd exception such as Irish Dancing extrangava Riverdance those providing the buffer between the performance of the songs and the much talked about scoring process. However Logo the US station that has broadcast the contest for the last 3 years will not do so this just when ESC has gotten one of the biggest names in Pop ever to perform at it.

Richard and his potty mouth
Richard Madeley caused a bit of a stink last year when he stood in for Piers Morgan on Good Morning Britain. He cut short an interview with Defence Secretary Gavin Williamson on the grounds that he was not answerng his questions. This time Richard has got trouble after using the swear word s*** during an interview with the winner of singing talent contest show The Voice UK. Richard apologised claiming that at the time he did not know that he had used the offending word. Weather Richard completes this week subbing remains to be seen.
