OHMYGOSSIP — Michelle Keegan and Mark Wright argue over the television remote.
The ‘Our Girl’ actress – who married the former reality TV star last year – can’t help but squabble with the hunky presenter over what to watch on the small screen in the evenings.
Speaking to the RadioTimes.com, she said: “Yes [we do argue over the remote], because I love watching cookery programmes, but Mark says they’re depressing. I love watching people cook; he says it reminds him of being at school. You know on a Sunday night and you’ve got school the next day? That’s how it feels for him.
“But I like ‘Come Dine With Me’ and shows where I can learn new recipes. I do watch TV with Mark, especially if we’ve got downtime at the weekend. But we’ve got two screens and he’s normally in the living room watching football and I’m in the kitchen cooking.”
However, although she enjoys slumping on the sofa in the evenings to watch her favourite cookery shows, the 29-year-old beauty can’t help but cringe when she watches herself on screen.
She explained: “Well I can’t watch interviews with myself, I get embarrassed, but when I’m in character it doesn’t feel like I’m watching me. It’s weird. I watched ‘Ordinary Lies’ [in 2015] on my own when it came out because it was the first thing I’d done since ‘Coronation Street’, so I didn’t know how people would react.”

OHMYGOSSIP — Nathan Henry almost died from alcohol poisoning.
The ‘Geordie Shore’ hunk – who is known for knocking back the shots on camera – sparked concern for his health on Tuesday (13.09.16) night when he revealed he almost lost his life over the weekend when he took his booze guzzling too far.
Taking to his Instagram account, the handsome star said: “When it’s ur turn to talk about ur weeknd, but u’re not sure how to phrase that u almost died frm alcohol poisoning (sic)”
However, the 25-year-old star didn’t let the overdose stop him from attending an appearance in Aberdeen, Scotland, with his friend Frankie Ellis on Tuesday (13.09.16) night.
Nathan – who appeared to be sober – filmed himself doing accents as he branded his pal a “witch” on Snapchat.
However, he later asked Frankie if he could have his “juice” back, to which she replied, “I think you’ve had enough!”
Meanwhile, Nathan will certainly have plenty of boozing to come over the next few months as it was recently confirmed ‘Geordie Shore’ will return to screens on October 25 at 10pm.
However, rather than partying up a storm in Newcastle – where the show is usually filmed – the gang will ruffle some feathers on some of Europe’s biggest party islands – Magaluf, Ibiza, Kavos and Ayia Napa – for series 13.
Alcohol poisoning occurs when a person drinks a toxic amount of the beverage over a short period of time.
It can lead to confusion, slurred speech, vomiting, slow breathing, hypothermia, passing out and unconsciousness.
However, in some serious cases, alcohol poisoning can lead to a coma, brain damage or even death.

OHMYGOSSIP — Sinitta has been axed from ‘The X Factor’.
The ‘So Macho’ hitmaker was expected to jet out to Los Angeles, California, this week to assist her best friend Simon Cowell in the Judges’ Houses round of the singing show, but she has now been dropped and replaced with Mel B after producers thought she would create a “fix scandal”.
Simon explained: “I know she’s not happy [about being dropped at the last minute] but there’s always next year.”
The 52-year-old singer was reportedly ditched from the popular show as she previously managed The Brooks – the Welsh twins who auditioned for the show last weekend – and fans believe the talented duo are at an unfair advantage.
However, Sinitta – who met the twins at her church – is adamant she stopped managing the group once they applied for the show in order to prevent any “fix” rumours circulating.
She told the Daily Star newspaper: “It’s mental if I have been thrown off the show because of this [her connection to The Brooks]. There always has to be a scapegoat I guess.”
However, a spokesperson for the show is adamant her link to the boys has nothing to do with her getting the chop.
The representative told the publication: “Mel B was the perfect choice for the Judges’ House role.”
Meanwhile, it’s hardly surprising Sinitta is angry about the outcome as she’s assisted the judges – either Simon or Louis Walsh – on the programme since it began in 2004.
She’s also featured heavily on the spin-off show ‘The Xtra Factor’ over the years and dished her opinions on acts.

OHMYGOSSIP — Nick Knowles thinks his new well-being show will save lives.
The ‘DIY SOS’ presenter has just landed his own observational documentary ‘The Retreat’ on BBC Two that will see him check into a vegan and healing sanctuary for 28 days in a bid to improve his mental and physical health.
He said of the project: “This truly has changed my life – I’m less stressed, lighter, fitter, and low in cholesterol like a good spread. I part own two vegan restaurants and still practice yoga … Watch this series – it could save your life!”
Nick will be joined by his ‘DIY SOS’ co-stars electrician Billy Byrne and builder Julian Perryman on screen as they attempt to shake up their diet and focus on exercises for the mind.
The Retreat’s creator David Barrett said: “The show’s concept was to take a team of 9 people, led by Nick Knowles, and follow them as they participate in a 28 day ‘complete wellbeing’ programme.
“Having done my own retreat and being amazed at the changes to my health and well-being, I thought it would be fascinating and interesting to take a group of individuals who had never considered alternative therapies before and see how they cope in that same environment.
“What unfolded was amazing to watch, with some astounding results that exceeded my expectations.”
Meanwhile, it seems Nick’s new show came along at the right time as he announced earlier this year that he’d split from his wife Jessica Moor but was adamant they’d remained friends for the sake of their son Eddie, two.
However, since then, Jessica has found out she’s battling with cervical cancer and Nick has been by her side ever since to help her get through the illness.
‘The Retreat’ will air from September 26 until September 30 at 7pm on BBC Two.

OHMYGOSSIP — Dannii Minogue, Martin Kemp and Amber Riley have joined Gary Barlow’s ‘Let It Shine’.
The 44-year-old pop beauty will be a mentor on the new talent show – which will search for performers to be cast in a Take That musical – alongside the ‘Back For Good’ frontman, Spandau Ballet singer and former ‘Glee’ star.
Of the judging panel, Gary said: “Dannii, Martin and Amber all bring so much to this panel with the breadth of experience in music, acting, stage and TV. I can’t wait to get started – it’s going to be epic!”
Dannii – who was a judge on rival show ‘The X Factor UK’ until 2010 – is thrilled to be joining the panel and thinks the new format will give performers all the experience they need to “shine”.
She said: “I’m so excited to be returning to the UK and joining the judging panel of ‘Let It Shine’.
“To be a performer, you must have a burning desire to perform, then you train at all the skills you need to shine. This show gives everyone that chance. I can’t wait.”
Meanwhile, Amber – who is best known for portraying Mercedes Jones in ‘Glee’ – will play an important part in the three stage competition by offering her advice to the hopefuls.
Talking about how her time on the show makes her ideal for the job, she said: “One of the unique things about ‘Glee’ was the covers of popular songs.
“They became the soundtrack to people’s lives, as well as the characters on the show.
“I am so excited to see what the UK talent has to offer and share some of my experience on the stage to help them reach their full potential. I’m not just looking for the biggest voices or the biggest personalities, but those who have what it takes to make it on TV and on stage.”
Martin, 54, is hoping to find fresh talent with “charisma” and has vowed to offer “constructive” criticism.
He added: “I’m so thrilled to be a part of the BBC’s ‘Let It Shine’ and taking on a role where I will be able to pass on a little of my 45 years’ worth of experience, in music, television and film, to young people just starting out on their journey.
“It’s a chance to find not just the most talented, but also those who have that something extra special called charisma, that literally will ‘shine’ from the stage. I won’t just be judging, but trying to give a constructive thought that will help them towards winning that incredible final prize!”
The trio join previously announced hosts Graham Norton and Mel Giedroyc.
‘Let It Shine’ aims to recreate the magic Take That had when it was originally comprised of Gary, Robbie Williams, Howard Donald, Mark Owen and Jason Orange.

OHMYGOSSIP — Channel 4 see baking as the key ingredient in ‘The Great British Bake Off’ – rather than the talent.
The channel have signed a £75 million, three-year deal with Love Productions to air the popular BBC show, but after co-hosts Mel Giedroyc and Sue Perkins quit the programme, they could also lose judging pair Paul Hollywood and Mary Berry.
A Channel 4 source said: “‘Bake Off’ is the brand and it will always be popular. There’s no doubting that when Channel 4 bid for the show they dreamt that they would get the star talent too.
“But they are now facing a very real situation where none of them are here when it comes back and they are preparing for that.
“The show is hugely popular overseas, and neither Mary and Paul, nor Mel and Sue, are a part of those shows. Baking is what people love. The four stars are just a part of the appeal.”
Some have criticised Channel 4’s decision to pay £25 million a series for the show when they hadn’t secured the presenters and judges as part of the contract.
The source added to The Sun newspaper: “How they signed without getting the talent on board, or at least getting a steer from them, is beyond comprehension. What were they thinking?”
Channel 4 have already confirmed plans to air a celebrity ‘Bake Off’ special first in aid of Stand Up To Cancer next year, and it is thought they may have to wait until 2018 for a regular series due to a clause between the BBC and Love Productions, the company behind the show.
Mary and Paul are said to be on the verge of following in Mel and Sue’s footsteps and quitting the programme after its channel move.
A source told the publication: “Mary and Paul believe Mel and Sue set the tone of the show. They are the beginning, middle and the end and they fit around them.
“Paul is currently in LA and hasn’t had a chance to talk to Mary. But they have always said they are in it together.”
‘Bake Off’ fans were stunned on Monday night (12.09.16) when the BBC confirmed it had lost the rights to air the show after the current series due to financial reasons.
Hours later, Channel 4 revealed they had put pen to paper on a deal for the programme, starting with a celeb special.
Mel and Sue said in a statement yesterday: “We made no secret of our desire for the show to remain where it was. The BBC nurtured the show from its infancy and helped give it its distinctive warmth and charm, growing it from an audience of two million to nearly 15 at its peak.
“We’ve had the most amazing time on Bake Off, and have loved seeing it rise and rise like a pair of yeasted Latvian baps. We’re not going with the dough. We wish all the future bakers every success.”

OHMYGOSSIP — Ellen Thomas has quit ‘EastEnders’.
The 52-year-old actress has played the feisty Claudette Hubbard since March last year, but will be saying goodbye to Walford in the next couple of weeks.
But the role of Richard Blackwood’s on-screen mum will be left open, should Ellen want to return to the soap in the future.
A spokesperson told Mirror Online: “As our regular viewers will know, Claudette has often been seen coming and going from the Square to visit her family and friends.
“This is the end of another stint for Claudette and we wish Ellen all the best for the future.”
Details of how Ellen’s character will leave the show have not yet been announced, but with the role set to be left open, fans can rest assured the departure will most likely not be fatal.
While Claudette hasn’t been without her misdeeds – including having a hand in Arthur ‘Fatboy’ Chubb’s (Ricky Norwood) death and revealing she murdered her husband – she’s recently been trying to win over her family again.
Fans of the soap will also have fond memories of cheering on Claudette as she opposed Babe Smith’s (Annette Badland) blackmail of the Coker family, and struck up an unexpected romance with Patrick Trueman (Rudolph Walker).
Ellen has managed to land herself the lead role in upcoming stage show ‘The Hotel Cerise’, which will run at The Theatre Royal Stratford East in October and November.

OHMYGOSSIP — Lauren Goodger won’t be looking for love on ‘The Only Way is Essex’.
The 29-year-old star is returning to the show which made her famous after a four-year break, and though she’s been single since splitting from Jake McLean in May, she has no interest in getting involved with any of her castmates.
She said: “Sadly I don’t think I’ll be the sexiest girl on the show – there are so many hotties. I’ll be the old one, not drinking and being boring.
“There’s little chance of romance either – there are no fit guys on ‘TOWIE’. Attractive men don’t go on it.”
Lauren is looking forward to being “one of the girls” and doesn’t want the drama of having a relationship on the show.
She told Closer magazine: “I’m looking forward to being one of the girls. I feel like you get dragged into dramas with boys, but I’m happy to be a more neutral character. I get to be the sensible one and luckily I get on with all the girls.”
And the brunette beauty has promised she will be a very different person this time to who she was in her first stint on the show.
She said: “It will feel bizarre as I’m a different person to how I was when I joined the show. I’ve grown up so much. I used to love going out to clubs, getting plastered and eating junk food in the mornings.
“But the thought of a hangover is horrifying and I’ll never be trapped in that vicious cycle again. I’m much happier enjoying nights in watching TV.”

OHMYGOSSIP — Sue Perkins and Mel Giedroyc have quit ‘Great British Bake Off’.
The hilarious co-hosts – who have fronted the cooking show since it hit television screens six years ago – have decided to step down from the popular programme when it moves channel next year.
A spokesperson for the duo confirmed they’ve decided to turn their backs on their hosting gigs just hours after it was announced that the BBC – who have screened the show since 2010 – lost the rights to the programme and Channel 4 will now take over the reins.
The BBC offered Love Productions an estimated £15 million per year – double the current contract – in a bid to keep hold of the show, but producers refused to accept offers below £25 million.
It’s believed Channel 4 quickly waded in with a three-year deal – worth a reported £75 million – after talks between the BBC and Love Productions broke down late Monday (12.09.16) afternoon.
In a statement, Love Productions said: “After an extraordinary six-year journey with the BBC, Love Productions announces with regret that it has been unable to reach agreement on terms to renew the commission of ‘The Great British Bake Off’.”
The future of the show is currently hanging in the balance as judges Paul Hollywood and Mary Berry are yet to make up their minds as to whether they move across the Channel 4 with the programme.
However, it’s believed the pair may decide to step away as Mary – who is nicknamed the Queen of Baking – recently admitted the show’s success is partly down the Sue and Mel’s funny comments.
The 81-year-old baker said: “The four of us, Mel, Sue, Paul and me, are a team. We get on really well and our aim is to make a good programme.
“A lot of that goes to Mel and Sue — if you could hear what they say off camera you would laugh even more.”
‘GBBO’ will move across the rival Channel 4 next year.

OHMYGOSSIP — Ed Balls thought he looked like a “beer barrel” on the opening night of ‘Strictly Come Dancing’ two weeks ago.
The former politician – who is partnered with professional dancer Katya Jones – is already battling feelings of dread about slipping into skimpy crystal-embellished for the live shows in two weeks’ time because he thinks he’s fat.
He said: “I spent the whole week saying, ‘I’m not wearing any sparkles, I don’t think it’s me’, and then just before the launch dance they said, ‘You are going to have to change your shirt’, and it had sparkles all over it. My shirt made me look more like a beer barrel than a dancer.”
The 49-year-old star also admitted that he didn’t realise he would have to wear fake tan until he spoke to last year’s contestant Jeremy Vine.
In a joint interview with the 50-year-old presenter, Ed told Radio Times magazine: “In retrospect the hoops on it were a mistake. Someone on Twitter said the wardrobe department just went, ‘Sod it, darts player.'”
“I also assumed I wasn’t going to wear fake tan, Jeremy, but when you told me you had.”
Meanwhile, although he’s not keen on the outfits, Ed hopes he and Katya can stay in the competition until they move to Blackpool for a week to perform in the seaside resort’s iconic Tower Ballroom.
He explained: “We’re aiming for Blackpool. If we get there, we’re going up the Eye and we’ll have some chips.”
However, Ed already feels like a winner as he gets to perform for the legend Len Goodman before he quits the programme following 12 years as the head judge.
He said: “I think it’s a massive honour to be on the show for Len’s last year. It will be good to hear his criticism.”
