OHMYGOSSIP — Episode four of the new series of ‘Doctor Who’ is being released as an immersive experience.
The BBC has confirmed it will release a special, heart-pounding version of the episode ‘Knock Knock’ – penned by ‘Doctor Foster’ writer Mark Bartlett – on BBC iPlayer after the episode airs on BBC One May 6 at 7.20pm.
The second version will be turned into a special “binaural” version featuring special effects that will make viewers feel as if they are actually there thanks to 3D sound technology.
And the alternative recording of the show will feature “a 3D surround sound effect for anyone wearing headphones, placing them at the heart of the action in this nail-biting episode”.
The episode is based on the fears of Peter Capaldi’s Twelfth Doctor after new companion Bill Potts – played by Pearl Mackie – moves into a houseshare with some friends and discovers evil floor-creaking termites at the property owned by the landlord, portrayed by guest actor David Suchet who is most famous for starring in ‘Agatha Christie’s Poirot’.
As a result, viewers who log-on to watch the Bill Anderson-directed episode on iPlayer will hear a sound manipulated version that will trick them into thinking the scary sounds from the creaks and the monsters are coming from all around the viewer as if their own home is infested just like Bill’s.
It is not clear whether the binaural episode will also work with surround-sound speakers, even though 3D audio effects usually does but anyone wearing headphones are expected to feel the full immersive experience.

OHMYGOSSIP — ‘Emmerdale’s Jonathan Wrather has been staying at his co-star Zoe Henry’s house.
The actor’s alter-ego Pierce Harris may have become one of the most hated men in the soap after he viciously raped his new wife Rhona Goskirk – played by Zoe – in last night’s episode (24.04.17) following months of domestic abuse, but the brunette beauty has admitted Jonathan is actually one of “the nicest guys” and he has been living at her home while they’re shooting the graphic scenes.
Speaking on ‘This Morning’ on Tuesday (25.04.17), she said: “Jonathan is the nicest guy. He stays with us and we have sleepovers. It’s quite good fun. We are able to run lines and gives us an opportunity to do more work. We are a good group to work through these storylines and work together.”
Not only does Jonathan regularly spend nights at Zoe’s but her husband and co-star Jeff Hordley, 47, who she married in 2003, likes to cook a slap up meal for the hunk when he’s staying round.
The mother-of-two said: “Jeff is a brilliant cook as well. He has been through some big storylines in the past as well.”
The storyline has had viewers gripped for weeks and, although she doesn’t really like spoilers, Zoe thinks it’s good that the show bosses Ian Macleod told fans that there would be a rape this week.
Zoe explained: “We were forewarned the wedding will end in rape and watching it back I thought it was quite heavy. But we can’t tell half a story. You can’t cut it down or make it less brutal because what he’s done is brutal and awful. If we don’t tell is properly, then we’re not doing our jobs right. Women’s Aid have said when a story like this is aired they get a spike in reports. And that’s incredible.”

OHMYGOSSIP — Emmerdale’s Zoe Henry’s horrific rape scenes left her covered in bruises.
Viewers were left heartbroken during last night’s (24.04.17) episode when manipulative lawyer Pierce Harris (Jonathan Wrather) forced himself onto his new wife Rhona Goskirk (Zoe) just hours after they tied the knot in front of their friends and family.
And, although the horrific scenes were well-rehearsed before they were captured on camera, Jonathan has admitted he accidentally injured his co-star during the scuffle.
Speaking on ‘Lorraine’ on Tuesday (25.04.17), he explained: “They were difficult to do, luckily we get an element of rehearsal on those ones. It was great to work with a fight director so all that thing had to be choreographed. You couldn’t just turn up on set and go: ‘Hi, crew and just work this one out.’ It was very hard-hitting – I’ve not seen it screen but I remember doing it – we shot it in chronology so it’s very much up here but most of it was very much implied. You don’t see a lot, but in a sense it makes it more powerful!
“Zoe will say that she did get one or two bruises along the way. We were fully committed to it, we had to be, we wanted to make it as truthful as possible!”
Although the storyline is disturbing for the cast and crew to watch, Jonathan has admitted he jumped at the chance to take it on because it’s happening in real life often.
He said: “Pierce is seemingly this kind of sorted, charming, well-adjusted individual but behind closed doors he is perturbed and disturbed. It’s happening all too often, we work with a number of groups – Women’s Aid and various crisis groups – to make sure we get it right. The facts and statistics are pretty shocking and not nice at all.”

OHMYGOSSIP — Carol Vorderman is still planning to do her round-the-world solo flight this year.
It was initially thought the former ‘Countdown’ star had cancelled his globe-trotting trip after her mother Jean, 88, was diagnosed with an incurable cancer recently but it looks like the challenge is very much still on as Joel Dommett – who she met while competing on ‘I’m A Celebrity… Get Me Out of Here!’ last year – has revealed him and the rest of the jungle crew are set to wish her off when she jumps on board her plane.
Speaking to the Metro newspaper, Joel said: “Carol’s doing her round-the-world flight and we’re going to see her off. We all get on really well and meet up now and again. We’ve got a WhatsApp group we all chat on. I went to see Danny Baker’s show at the Shepherd’s Bush Empire recently which was so good.
“I wanted to get some new, exciting friends from the show and I’ve done that. You get on with the people you want to get on with and you ignore the ones you don’t.”
Carol announced she was going to jet around the world in her twin-engine propeller plane named Mildred after she obtained her pilot’s licence in 2014.
It’s believed the 56-year-old presenter’s journey through Europe, Asia, Russia, across the Pacific Ocean, the US and back to the UK will be captured on camera and turned into a show called ‘Carol’s Incredible Solo Flight Around The World’.
Carol announced that her mother had been diagnosed with the disease last month but Jean is adamant that she doesn’t want her family to halt their plans for her sake.
Jean said recently: “At my age I don’t want to undergo any further operations or chemotherapy treatment which can’t cure these new cancers anyway.
“Now my family and me will concentrate on being happy and celebrating the time we have together. I’m refusing to let them be sad.”

OHMYGOSSIP — Kellie Maloney thinks her pub is haunted.
The 64-year-old former boxing legend is planning to re-open her 250-year-old boozer the Unicorn in Marden, Kent, next month but has been forced to call in her exorcist friend Becs prior to the relaunch because she’s convinced a ghost – believed to be a former landlord from the 1800s – is roaming around the premises.
Speaking to the Daily Star newspaper, Kellie – who was known as Frank before she transitioned into a woman in 2014 – said: “Becs sensed there is a friendly spirit who passes through. He comes through the coffee shop after closing time and disappears up the chimney.”
As well as her supernatural concerns, Kellie recently admitted that she’s been struggling to find love since she underwent gender reassignment surgery three years ago.
She said: “Dating is a sad topic for me. I’m having problems with love. I want to date, of course, but it’s hard. I’ve been on a few good dinner dates with men but when they realise who I am, they make up an excuse and leave or never contact me again.
“I think they’re scared of being judged or it’ my history in boxing – I don’t know.”
Kellie would like to date a younger man because they’re less likely to know about his past, but thinks it would embarrass her daughters, Emma, 39, Sophie, 21, and 15-year-old Libby.
She explained: “The problem is that men my age freak out when they find out who I am and it scares them off. I’ve thought about younger men – I was asked out by a 28 year old the other day – but I have to be respectful to my daughters. I don’t want them to feel embarrassed.”

OHMYGOSSIP — Larry Lamb would “never say never” to signing up with another soap.
The 69-year-old actor portrayed bad boy Archie Mitchell in the BBC’s ‘EastEnders’ from 2008 until his character’s shocking death a year later and, although he’d never reprise his role in the long-running show, he’d be open to joining a rival programme.
Speaking to the Daily Mirror newspaper, he said: “‘EastEnders’ is this thing that rolls on. People go in and out of it. I don’t think he could come back as a ghost. I wouldn’t look good in the white veil. It wouldn’t work, so that’s it. Archie Mitchell has had his day.”
However, when asked if he’d join a rival like ITV’s ‘Coronation Street’ or ‘Emmerdale’, the silver fox added: “Never say never!”
Although he’s not thinking about joining a soap opera anytime soon, Larry certainly isn’t short of work as he became a fan favourite when he competed in the ‘I’m A Celebrity… Get Me Out of Here!’ jungle in the Australian outback at the end of last year.
And Larry thinks the experience, which he competed alongside the likes of Carol Vorderman, Joel Dommett and Scarlett Moffatt, brought him closer to his family.
Asked if his time on the show was how he expected it to be, he said: “Absolutely. To spend three weeks cooking on a fire and having to make sure everything’s ready and in order. And to live an ordered life in what are potentially chaotic circumstances, it’s done me the world of good. More than anything, it’s made me appreciate my family.
“To listen to the chat between everybody there about how they relate to their families. Wayne is a wonderful dad. And Jordan has been parented by amazing people. Those different familial situations I have become aware of with them has just made me understand how lucky I’ve been but just how much more I’ve got to do.”

OHMYGOSSIP — Stephanie Pratt thinks Joey Essex “hates” her.
The 31-year-old beauty embarked on a short-lived romance with the former ‘The Only Way is Essex’ star after they met filming ‘Celebs Go Dating’ last October, and though she hasn’t seen him since they split over the phone, she has no idea why he has so much hostility towards her.
She said: “He hates me. I have no idea why he dislikes me so much but he did ‘In Bed With Jamie’ and said some rude things about me.
“We broke up over the phone when I was in LA and I’ve not seen him since.”
But Stephanie doesn’t have any hard feelings towards her former lover.
She said: “I had the best time doing that show and I really did enjoy my time with Joey. We had a lot of fun together so there are no regrets.”
The ‘Made in Chelsea’ star has been on a “couple” of dates with rugby player Ollie Lindsay-Hague and though things aren’t serious yet, she would like her next boyfriend to be on the show with her.
She said: “I’d love my next boyfriend to be on the show. I’m so open about my life on ‘Made in Chelsea’ so it would be weird to keep my relationship private. Bringing a guy on television is actually a really good way to test if they’re genuine too.
“In the past, I’ve dated guys who have only been with me because they want to be in the spotlight, as soon as filming is over they break up with me.”
And Stephanie has found she isn’t involved in much “drama” on the show because her personal life hasn’t been a big part of the programme recently.
She told OK! magazine: “I’ve taken a bit of a step back from all the drama because I’m not dating anyone on the show. I actually miss dating on camera. It was fun but all the single guys are too young for me.”

OHMYGOSSIP — Chloe Meadows is reportedly dating builder Taylor Barnett.
The 24-year-old ‘The Only Way Is Essex’ star has reportedly struck up a relationship with the hunky builder, who is a close friend of Myles Barnett, the boyfriend of Chloe’s best friend Courtney Green.
A source told The Sun newspaper: “Chloe is really happy with Taylor. She’s watched best pal Courtney date Myles so it’s lovely for her to be getting to know someone now too.
“Courtney and Chloe love that their boyfriends are close – with them even sharing the same surname. Chloe’s started to take Taylor with her to press events and they’ve been hanging out together as a group too.”
The reported new couple were first spotted together earlier this month when Chloe took him to the Jog On To Cancer event in Kensington, where they were seen locking lips.
It’s unlikely Chloe will ever share her romance on screen though, as she previously said her “insecurity issues” are too severe to let her boyfriend appear on television with her.
She said: “My insecurity issues are so bad anyway. I’d crumble if a boyfriend started to get attention from being on television.”
Meanwhile, Chloe admitted first went on the reality TV show because she wanted to get her ex-boyfriend back, but was left disheartened when pictures of her on the beach emerged online and shattered her chances.
She explained at the time: “I used to cry when I saw photos of me on the beach. I went on the show to try and get my ex back and when I saw those photos I thought, ‘He’ll never want me back now.’ Those pictures will haunt me forever. I want to lose a stone and a half. My perfect thing would be for someone to say that I look too thin.”

OHMYGOSSIP — Ferne McCann is considering leaving Essex for the sake of her unborn baby.
The 26-year-old TV star is reportedly thinking of starting a new life with her baby following the arrest of her boyfriend Arthur Collins, who has been charged with 14 counts of grievous bodily harm with intent and one of throwing corrosive fluid on a person in relation to an acid attack at a London nightclub.
A pal of the mum-to-be – who made her name on ‘The Only Way Is Essex’ – revealed: “She’s seriously considering moving away for a fresh start for the sake of her child.
“It’s been a hell of an ordeal for her and she really needs some space to clear her head and decide what’s for the best.”
Ferne’s friends have suggested she should make a fresh start away from Essex, and the reality TV star is apparently open to the idea.
The source told The Sun newspaper: “She just needs some calm and at the moment everything in Essex would make her think of what happened.
“Everyone knows her and Arthur and they’re all talking about what has gone on.
“A couple of people have been suggesting a bit of a clean break could be the best thing and she’s taking the advice on board.”
Meanwhile, another of Ferne’s pals recently admitted to being saddened by the situation, which has seen the ‘This Morning’ presenter detach herself from her friends.
The insider explained: “We had no idea [she was pregnant]. It’s really worrying – we don’t know what she’s going to do now, it’s really sad, we’re all here for her but she’s not speaking to anyone. We don’t even know where she is.
“She wouldn’t have wanted it to be like this. It’s really sad … she isn’t getting to celebrate being pregnant like other first time mum’s – she doesn’t deserve this, she is a lovely girl and she deserves only happiness. Everyone is really concerned for her.”

OHMYGOSSIP — Marnie Simpson is “over” her relationship with Lewis Bloor.
The ‘Geordie Shore’ star was left heartbroken two months ago when she found out her beau – who she struck up a relationship with last summer – had cheated on her while she was away for work but she has admitted she’s “finally recovered” from the ordeal and is ready to put that chapter behind her and, instead, focus on her career.
Writing in her column for Star magazine, she said: “I’ve finally recovered from my break up with Lewis, I’ve seen he’s tweeted but I’m over commenting on it. I feel back to my old self and talking about the past doesn’t help.
“My final comment is that I wish him the best of lick in whatever he does in life. This year is all about working hard, partying hard and trying to stay single.”
Although she’s got over the infidelity, the 25-year-old beauty – who came out as bisexual last year – doesn’t think she’ll date a man next time around because of the hurt.
She said: “If I ever get into another relationship, I’ll probably go with a woman. I don’t think I’d get hurt as much as I have done with men. Girls are much more understanding.”
Meanwhile, Marnie certainly has a lot to focus on over the next coming months as she’s set to release her autobiography ‘Stripped Bare’ in June.
She said: “I’m so excited to be publishing my autobiography, I never dreamt that one day I’d have my own book. In ‘Stripped Bare’ I’ll be telling stories from my childhood, giving all the goss on my TV life and throwing in a few surprises as well. I can’t wait to share this with my fans and to get out on the road to meet them this summer.”

OHMYGOSSIP — Jayne Torvill has confirmed ‘Dancing on Ice’ is to return.
The popular ice skating show is set to make a sensational return to ITV this year – three years after it left television screens – and the legendary figure skater, who is joined by partner Christopher Dean as a coach on the programme, says the format has been “revamped” and it will “set a new bar” for shows of its kind.
Torvill, 59, excitedly shared: “I love that it’s coming back, it’s great news – I’m really looking forward to it.
“The show will definitely be refreshed but the basics will be the same, we will still be teaching celebrities how to skate.
“It was a different sort of platform being in the studio – we like to be creative and come up with new things. There’s a new bar to set when the show returns.”
The professional Olympian – who famously performed the Bolero routine, which she and Christopher won the gold medal for at the Olympics in 1983, at the end of every series from 2006 until 2014 – is desperate for retired soccer aces Steven Gerrard and David Beckham to compete on the show as her son is a “massive” fan.
She told The Sun newspaper: “My son is a massive Steven Gerrard fan; he wants him to do ‘Dancing on Ice; as he’s retired now.
“He’s also keen on David Beckham taking part but I told him that’s unlikely.”
Torvill and Dean appeared on the show alongside coach Karen Barber to help train the aspiring skaters and offer comments and advice after every live show following the judges’ scores.
At the peak of its popularity, ‘Dancing on Ice’ – which was originally hosted by Phillip Schofield and Holly Willoughby – attracted 13 million viewers.
But its audience dwindled over time and it was scrapped altogether in 2014.
Christine Lampard co-hosted with Schofield from 2012, but it was axed after nine series.

OHMYGOSSIP — Kieron Richardson will front a documentary on same-sex parents.
The ‘Hollyoaks’ actor – known for portraying Ste Hay in the soap – has teamed up with All4 for a forthcoming currently-untitled one-off show that will explore parenting in the LGBT – lesbian, gay, bisexual and transexual – community as this year marks the 50th anniversary of the partial decriminalisation of homosexuality in England and Wales.
Kieron said: “It’s an honour to be a part of this very exciting documentary, and also the significance of its place in marking the 50th anniversary of such a hugely important milestone in LGBT history. As an expectant father myself I am fascinated to learn about other people’s experiences and also to hear their insight & perspectives on all the issues LGBT parents face. As part of the Channel 4 family, I cannot wait to go on this journey with the dream team that is All4 & Burning Bright.”
The documentary will see Kieron meet parents and children within the LGBT community as he discovers more about the world of surrogacy and modern parenting, the challenges faced, and finding out how rewarding the experience can be.
Joshua Buckingham, Commissioning Editor for All 4, said: “For us at All 4, this important anniversary is about celebrating love and relationships in all their forms. We’re extremely proud to be working with Burning Bright and Kieron to explore, challenge and learn what parenting and family means in 2017.”
Filming for the special will kick off around the time Kieron and his husband Carl Hyland, who married in 2015, are expected to become fathers to fraternal twins.
The documentary is expected to hit television screens later on in the summer.
