Boiling Point showed the stress-ridden world of hospitality in a real time drama that received widespread critical acclaim. Stephen Graham (Time) starred as Andy, the head chef of Jones & Sons who was struggling to cope with its falling health and safety ratings, managing the staff and cooking for a visiting food critic. The film ended with Andy collapsing.

We Might Regret This, which places intense female friendships at the centre of the drama, stars Harris as artist Freya.

Freya is in her 30s, she’s tetraplegic, and she’s moved to London from Canada in pursuit of a lawyer in his 50s named Abe (Darren Boyd). As their romance hits full-tilt, Abe invites Freya to move in with him before she’s even seen the upstairs of his house.

The new trailer shows rapper Bosco Champion (Top Boy's Malcolm Kamulete) return from prison and go back to his music career. Supporting him as he builds back his reputation is his sister Vita (Déja J Bowens in her television debut), whose dedication and lyrics are secretly behind her industry dominating brother’s success.

Lees was widely praised for her brutally honest account of her upbringing as a teenage boy called Byron in the "small-minded" town of Hucknall, Nottinghamshire, as well as for capturing the Y2K era in all its pre-internet nostalgia.

Now she is re-telling the story across an eight-part series, which will be directed by Chris Sweeney (The Tourist).

As Byron, Lees felt stuck in her small working-class town that was still struggling after the closure of its coal mine in the 1980s, and felt sick of her parents and being beaten up for "talkin' like a poof."

Two of the commissions will show the impact of life changing events and mark their anniversaries: The Miners’ Strike hears from those present at the biggest industrial dispute Britain has seen, and Atomic People takes testimony from those who suffered the bombing of Hiroshima and Nagasaki 80 years ago.

The new series will not be a following on from the first, which starred Sean Bean and Stephen Graham as prisoner and guard, but will follow a new female-led storyline. Only Siobhan Finneran (Happy Valley) will be reprising her role as Marie-Louise, the humane and compassionate prison chaplain.

"Top that, Sweden!" joked Kate Phillips, challenging the hosts of next year’s Eurovision Song Contest. Just a few weeks earlier, a worldwide audience of 162 million – an all-time high – had watched Loreen win the contest for a second time.

Phillips, the BBC’s Director of Unscripted and Eurovision Lead, was talking at a packed RTS event that threw a spotlight on how the corporation staged the Europop jamboree at the Liverpool Arena in such spectacular fashion.

Pop icon, LGBTQ+ ally and self-proclaimed “fairy-godmother/cupid” Dannii Minogue will return to host the new series, which will see the female contestants journey to Italy to test their chemistry with a kiss.

Minogue will match the contestants herself before they enter the Masseria (an Italian farmhouse), where they will greet each other with a kiss on first meeting, before even having spoken to each other.

This is designed to test their chemistry before they get to know each other on a deeper level.

Bad Sister’s Sharon Horgan and Good Omen’s Michael Sheen star as a married couple going through an emotional legal battle.

The trailer shows Nicci (Horgan) and Andrew (Sheen) finding out that the condition of their daughter Marnie, who suffers with a rare neuro-muscular disorder, is rapidly declining.

When doctors tell the couple it is in Marnie’s best interests to cease all treatments, Nicci and Andrew enter a legal battle to go against the doctor’s wishes and fight for their daughter’s life.
