A BBC Ambulance paramedic was left sobbing as he made a heartbreaking admission.
Healthcare professional Jeff tackled an emergency call that he said “hit close to home” as his dad passed away from a similar issue he had to take on.
Fans of the BBC hit show see real-life emergencies and high-pressure environments as frontline workers give everything they have to save lives in the most critical of circumstances.
During tonight’s (April 15) instalment, which is the final episode of the season, Castleford crew paramedic Jeff and associate ambulance practitioner Eddie receive a call to attend to a 51-year-old man, who has been having trouble getting his dialysis most of the week.
The duo rushed to the scene and after arriving it was clear Dale was uncomfortable as they found him lying in his bed struggling to move.
Dale’s mum explained to Jeff and Eddie that he has been feeling drowsy, has been suffering with pain in his chest and was being sick all morning.
After running some checks, Jeff quickly informed his mum that if they had left it any longer he would have gone into cardiac arrest. Acting quick, Jeff and Eddie rushed Dale to hospital and made sure he got treated immediately.
While sitting in the ambulance, things took an emotional turn as Jeff broke down in tears and revealed: “Quite close to home for me because my dad passed away from renal failure. So it’s quite close to home for me.”
Jeff struggled to control his emotions as he stepped out of the car to have a moment to himself.
Stepping back into the vehicle, he explained to colleague Eddie: “My dad went into renal failure. British National in South Africa, during COVID as well so I couldn’t go and see him and he passed away before he really knew what was happening.”
Visibly moved, he continued: “I think as a bloke sometimes emotionally we don’t deal with what’s going on in the background. The baggage becomes quite heavy until you get to the point where it’s overflowing and your whole world comes crumbling down.”
Jeff added: “I think half the problem is that I don’t do good talking about emotions. People deal with grief in different ways. It’s the little things that can trigger it and it can come out of the blue. My dad dying has definitely been life changing for me.”
At the end of the show it was revealed that after a long illness and multiple hospital admissions Dale died 6 months later

Mills, who had hosted the show since January 2025, was dismissed last month.
“Since Scott left, she has been the name which has been discussed as the best candidate and everyone at Radio 2 is saying she will be offered it.
“Sara has made a huge success of her drivetime slot and is hugely popular at the station, plus she’s hosted the Breakfast Show as a stand-in before.
“The BBC won’t be rushing this through as they want the dust to settle. But Sara is the one in line and, as far as her colleagues are concerned, she is the best person for the job.”
Sara, who began a TV career in the 90s, featured on Radio 2 as a cover host for various shows in 2012 while still working for Radio 1.
The mum-of-three landed her first permanent Radio 2 show, hosting Sounds of the 80s on Saturday nights, the following year.
She went on to replace Simon Mayo as the drivetime presenter in 2019 and stood in on the Breakfast Show in 2025.

She shared the heartbreaking news on Instagram as she penned: “Heartbroken. Yesterday, my dad suddenly passed away while doing one of his favourite things—walking Pen-y-Ghent.
“He had hiked that peak countless times throughout his life, but none of us knew he wouldn’t walk back down that day.
“I don’t have the words. All I can say is that he was, and always will be, my absolute hero.
“He encouraged me to dream big and loved me wholeheartedly, and for that I will be forever grateful. Until we meet again, Dad.”

BBC Morning Live expert Laura Pomfret has highlighted the top six easy access ISA accounts as savers face the ‘last chance’ to use the full tax-free allowance
BBC Morning Live expert Laura Pomfret said it was ‘last chance’ for some ISAs(Image: BBC)
A BBC finance expert has outlined which ISA accounts people should be considering as a ‘fresh start’ gets underway. With the new financial year having kicked off on 6 April, savers have the opportunity to make use of cash ISA accounts for up to £20,000 of tax-free savings — and crucially, it’s the final year before this allowance is reduced.
Appearing on BBC Morning Live, finance expert Laura Pomfret explained what people should be doing and highlighted which accounts are currently offering the most competitive interest rates.
She said: “It is a fresh start and there’s an opportunity to make the most of your money and we’re going to start with cash is because the ISA limit resets every year and we’ve got £20,000 per person that we can utilize within cash ISA, stocks and shares is lifetime is a little bit different, but it’s a way of growing your savings tax-free because you know saving is a really good thing and you do make interest on it but if it’s outside of an ISA you will have to pay tax on that interest.”
Those with savings held outside of ISAs remain liable for tax. Ms Pomfret further explained: “Most people get a personal savings allowance per year so if you’re a basic rate taxpayer you can earn £1,000 outside of an ISA tax free it drops to £500 when you are a higher rate taxpayer but basically this is why we should use our ISA allowance first because you can put £20,000 in and not have to worry about any interest that you make you don’t have to pay tax on it.”
Those with ISAs are set to face a significant change from 7th April 2027. She explained: “This is the last tax year before the allowance for a cash ISA drops to £12,000. So this is the last year that you get £20,000 that you can put into a cash ISA, and then going forward from 6th of April next year, 2027, it drops to £12,000, apart from if you’re 65 or over, you can save into a cash ISA, and you get the other allowance. So it’s important to maximise that this year while you can.”
Host Helen Skelton asked: “If you are in a position that you can save money, where should you put it right now?”
According to the BBC expert, there are six accounts worth considering for ‘easy access’ savings. She stated: “Easy access is where you can get it in and out usually without penalty, but you can have a look at the terms and conditions and these are some of the best. So, first up, we’ve got Trading 212 with a 4.6% interest rate.”
“It drops after the first year. Now, to be clear, that is an investment platform as well, but they do have a cash ISA that you can use, and they’ve got a 4.6%. You’ve then got, for example, Virgin Money with a 4.15%. You are limited to two withdrawals per year on that. So, it’s classed as an easy access, but there are some limits to withdrawals.

“So, Bank of Ireland UK 4.06%. The rate drops after a year with that one. It’s like a you know in a new rate, and then interest is paid annually. Leeds Building Society of 4.05%. You have to pay in a minimum of £1,000 to get that one. Um, Yorkshire Building Society, 4.05%, withdraw as often as you want. And then Tesco Bank, for example, 4.02%, the rate drops after a year. With that one, you can do it over the phone. The rest are all online or using the app. But these are just examples. These rates change quickly.”
Top ISA easy access accounts highlighted
Trading 212 4.6%
Virgin Money 4.15%
Bank of Ireland UK 4.06%
Leeds Building Society 4.05%
Yorkshire Building Society 4.05%
Tesco Bank 4.02%
She explained that, generally, individuals should check comparison websites for terms and conditions, with at least 4% interest being the crucial figure.
She continued: “You may get higher if you go for a fixed, but this is where your money can be fixed and locked away for one, two, three years. So this is about choosing what’s right for you.
“If you can afford to put some away and not need access to it, you might beat that rate with a fixed one. And obviously, as I said earlier, there’s also stocks and shares is you could look at a lifetime is if you fit the criteria, but ultimately getting it in tax wrapper is a great thing to do so that you can you know grow your interest tax-free.”
People can save an extra bit of money by following the ‘online’ advice
The finance expert appeared on an epsiode of Morning Live on Monday(Image: BBC)
TV money personality and personal finance expert Laura Pomfret has shared a money-saving tip for anyone with a passport. Speaking on today’s (April 13) episode of BBCMorning Live, hosted by Helen Skelton and Gethin Jones, she shared a cost-effective, time-saving piece of advice ‘people may not know about’.
Her advice comes as the cost of renewing a British passport rose at the start of the month. From April 8, the price of a standard online adult application rose from £94.50 to £102, surpassing £100 for the very first time. Child passports also increased, jumping to £66.50 from £61.50, reflecting a roughly 8% hike intended to reduce the taxpayer burden.
Laura told viewers: “It is becoming a bigger and bigger expense to get a passport for you, loved ones, for your family, and fees have just gone up. It is now over £100 to get a passport, but there are ways of avoiding paying more than you need.”

Sharing her tip to avoid paying extra when renewing your passport, she said that people who renew online can take their own pictures, rather than going to a photo booth and paying even more to get it printed. She said: “If you’ve not renewed your passport for a while, you may not know that you can take your photos yourself.”
She went on: “You don’t have to pay to go into a shop, you don’t have to go to one of the passport booths.” She said the official Gov.uk website gives you guidance when uploading your own photo, saying: “You need good lighting and a plain background, you upload it directly.”
She added: “It tells you if it’s not any good and you have to do it again. So, all in all, I think it’s worth having a look, if you need to get a new passport, at these different ways of saving money, because it’s worth it in the long run, especially more than one.”
Offering further passport guidance for Brits, Laura urged viewers to only ever renew online via the official Gov.uk HM Passport Office website. She warned: “There are these intermediary websites that might look official to help you fill out the application, but it’s not HM Passport Office.
“It’s an intermediary and you could pay up to £100, just for essentially help doing the passport, so make sure when you do it online you’re going directly to the Passport Office.” She also recommended renewing passports online rather than by post, as it costs less and saves time.
She said: “I advise you to do it yourself online. It takes about 10 minutes. But if you’re a bit unsure, you can use the Post Office check and send service. You’re paying £16 for this, but actually to get it done properly, it may be worth you deciding to use that service.”
You must renew your passport before you can travel if either your passport has expired or you do not have enough time left on it. How much time you need for your passport depends on the country you’re visiting. Check the entry requirements of the country you want to travel to.

BBC has aired the gripping bumper-length finale of The Capture series three and fans have been left wondering if there will be another season of the popular series

The third series of The Capture has come to an end(Image: BBC)
BBC viewers were all left making the same demand after tuning into The Capture season three finale.
DI Rachel Carey’s (Holliday Grainger) battle with E Squadron and her investigation into Isaac Turner’s (Paapa Essiedu) death came to a close and it also marked the end of the road for two major characters.
Rachel officially become the Commander of Counter Terror, but in doing so had sold out on her ideals and compromised herself, meaning she had lost to E Squadron.
They would continue using Correction in the knowledge that she would never be able to reveal that to the public or do anything about it.
One element of the story was left hanging which saw Rachel spotting the dead DSU Gemma Garland (Lia Williams) in the background of a selfie she had just taken only for her to disappear from the image moments later.
Whether this was something that happened technologically or just in Rachel’s head was left uncertain at this moment.
However, the tantalising cliffhanger has left fans begging more episodes.
Taking to X, formerly known as Twitter, one fan penned: “@BBCOneDrama There needs to be a fourth series of #TheCapture. It is sooo good. S3E6 was superb and left us wanting another series. Soon. Another person wrote: “There’d better be a season 4 #TheCapture.”
A third person agreed: “Is Gemma dead? Is Frank dead? Is D.C Chloe compromised? I don’t trust these scriptwriters anymore We need answers!!! We need S4!!”
Meanwhile, a fourth social media user said: “Need a season 4. I can”t believe walker died man #TheCapture.”
Creator Ben Chanan has previously stated that he wrote the third season intending it to be the show’s last but by the time it was released he was less certain.
He told Radio Times: “I’d think to myself as I was writing it ‘This is going to be the last series.’ Now, is that true? I don’t know. Never say never, right?
“I think it’s really healthy to just write each series as if it’s going to be the last that you’re not just hanging on to people for the sake of it.
“I think actors don’t mind dying in a series particularly if it’s probably going to be the last one but also if you give them a really good send off.”

Actor Peter Capaldi is the latest big name to reject the chance to appear on the next series of Celebrity Traitors after Alison Hammond said she is just too busy
Peter Capaldi said he has his reasons for saying no(Image: (Image: BBC))
Doctor Who legend Peter Capaldi turned down Celebrity Traitors because he did not want the “level of exposure” the game of trust and treachery brings with it.
We’re getting closer to knowing who will be the next instalment of the spin-off after the success of the first series in 2025, which was filmed last April. Presenter Amol Rajan has signed up, insiders claim, but who else will star in the BBC show? Danny Dyer is another of the big names linked – but Peter won’t be pulling the cloak over his head.
The Thick Of It actor told the BBC’s Sunday With Laura Kuenssberg programme he was asked to take part in the all-star version of the reality TV show, but said no. He isn’t the only one to reject the chance after Alison Hammond confirmed she won’t be heading to the castle – and said she has also had to turn down the chance to host Strictly Come Dancing, too.
Asked why, 67-year-old Scottish actor Peter, who played the Twelfth Doctor from 2013 to 2017, said: “Because I think there’s a level of fame that… I think it propels you into the public eye, at a level of exposure that I don’t really want.
“I like doing, you know, it’s like doing my music things – it’s very difficult for people in that business to understand that you want to keep it small.”
He added: “People keep saying to me, ‘Why don’t you do a bigger tour, or ‘ Why don’t you do a bigger release, or ‘ Why don’t you promote this more? I’m not doing it to be famous.”
On his previous leading role as the Doctor, the Glasgow-born star said he had “a little regret” when asked if he left the long-running BBC sci-fi show too early. He added: “It’s great fun being Doctor Who, but the pressure of it is quite intense.
“You’re sort of on all the time and you don’t want to disappoint anyone because even though I’m not Doctor Who, if people are meeting me they’d rather meet the version of me that is Doctor Who. So you try not to let them down, right?” Yeah, because I’m quite miserable and melancholic, really.
“And that was, that was one of the big changes in my life, I guess, which happened quite late, was I’m quite miserable really, but I thought you can’t be miserable if you’re Doctor Who. You can’t because you would disappoint people so I have to become cheerful all the time.”
The first series of The Celebrity Traitors aired on the BBC last autumn, with its nail-biting finale hitting a peak of 15.4 million viewers, according to the broadcaster.
It featured a star-studded cast including actors Celia Imrie and Nick Mohammed, singer Paloma Faith, author and actor Stephen Fry, broadcaster Jonathan Ross and comedian Alan Carr, who went on to win as a Traitor.
The spin-off series, hosted by Claudia Winkleman, brought in an average audience of 14.9 million people during its run – the biggest TV audience of 2025.

The Capture season three is nearly over and the BBC has now confirmed what’s going to take its place next week.
BBC fans were shocked when the revelation around Simon’s true identity was discovered in last week’s episode of The Capture season three and are desperate to find out how it ends.
But with the grand finale airing tonight, Sunday, April 12, at 9pm, many have already turned their attention to what they will watch next week when it’s all over.
The BBC has since announced that The Capture season three’s time slot on Sunday, April 19, is going to be taken over by a “powerful” royal special.
To mark what would have been Queen Elizabeth II’s 100th birthday, BBC One will be airing a one-off film that explores the life and legacy of the country’s longest-reigning monarch.
Queen Elizabeth II: Her Story, Our Country won’t be one to miss as it is going to feature “powerful” old and new interviews with global icons including Dame Helen Mirren, Barack Obama, Sir David Attenborough and her daughter-in-law, HM Queen Camilla.
Describing what else to expect, its official synopsis reads: “Spanning an era that saw the nation move from the age of Empire to the rise of celebrity culture — from the Blitz to the 2012 London Olympics — Queen Elizabeth II lived through extraordinary change.
“More than a witness to history, she became an enduring symbol of continuity in a rapidly evolving world.
“Through the prism of her life, the documentary tells the story of modern Britain in a richly historical and emotionally resonant exploration of both The Queen and the people she served.”
Queen Elizabeth II: Her Story, Our Country won’t be the only way the BBC will be marking what would have been the late Queen’s centenary year either.
Ahead of the one-off special airing, BBC One will be showing Antiques Roadshow : Royal Special at 8pm with Fiona Bruce visiting Windsor Castle for the episode.
She will be taking a closer look at some of the late Queen’s more cherished items, childhood clothes and her coronation gown.
Bruce is also going to be given access to a selection of Queen Elizabeth II’s clothes which are set to go on display in a special exhibition at the King’s Gallery at Buckingham Palace.
Queen Elizabeth II: Her Story, Our Country airs on Sunday, April 19, at 9pm on BBC One.

Call the Midwife favourite Fred Buckle has long been a cornerstone of the Poplar community yet behind his warm exterior lies a heartbreaking past.
Fred, portrayed by Cliff Parisi, has graced the BBC drama since its debut in 2012, initially introduced as the handyman at Nonnatus House, and audiences have watched him blossom into a devoted family man and cherished friend.
Ever willing to offer a listening ear, the shopkeeper has forged truly wonderful bonds with the midwives and nuns of the convent, and is perpetually on hand to tackle any practical difficulties (Chummy’s bicycle, anyone?).
Fred is contentedly wed to Councillor Violet Buckle (portrayed by Annabelle Apsion), and together they are parents to their adopted son, Reggie Jackson, played by Daniel Laurie. Fred also has two daughters from a former marriage.
Prior to finding happiness with his beloved Violet, Fred was married to Betty, and the couple welcomed two children, Dolly and Marlene, Wales Online reports.
Tragedy, however, came knocking when Betty lost her life during the Second World War as bombs fell relentlessly upon London. Under Adolf Hitler’s orders, the Luftwaffe repeatedly targeted Poplar, devastating the area during what became known as the London Blitz.
In the wake of Betty’s death, Dolly and Marlene had little choice but to stay with relatives and friends while Fred completed his army service.
Overnight, Fred became a widower and sole parent without a home during a period of social upheaval, violence, uncertainty and widespread devastation. The trauma of war and losing his wife would have profoundly affected Fred for the remainder of his days.
In Call the Midwife’s second series, Dolly, portrayed by Ella Smith, turned up in Poplar to see her father alongside her young son, Anthony, revealing that her husband worked as a merchant sailor.
While chatting with the expectant Dolly, a proud Fred recounted how he had made a baby bath for his wife, which triggered a poignant exchange about the past and Betty.
“I often think of her at bath time”, Dolly told her dad, who replied, “Yeah, happy memories.”
Dolly continued: “They’re the best ones, I’m telling you. I drove past the bombsite on me way over and it brought back the Blitz, like it was yesterday. Me and Marlene being lifted out the rubble by a policeman, still in our nighties.”
With a devastated look, Fred said, “I should have been there, Doll”, but Dolly swiftly interjected: “You were fighting a war, Dad. Trying to stop that sort of thing from happening. And it did stop happening, in the end.”
In series four, Marlene Buckle (Rosie Sanson) appeared in the East End and was instantly irritated to learn her dad was getting married again, with Violet set to become his wife.
Clearly wounded by Fred’s desire to remarry, Marlene spitefully told Violet that her father was exploiting her for commercial gain. This triggered a temporary split between Fred and Violet, but Marlene later acknowledged her error and rectified matters.
As Call the Midwife is producing a three-part prequel to the BBC programme, it would be remiss not to explore Fred’s heartbreaking backstory and introduce his wife, Betty Buckle, to the series.
While viewers are familiar with Fred’s history, witnessing it unfold on-screen would prove deeply emotional, and something loyal fans thoroughly deserve.
The three-episode mini-series, entitled Sisters in Arms, will turn back time to World War II, featuring younger versions of beloved characters Sisters Julienne, Monica Joan, and Evangelina, originally portrayed by Jenny Agutter, Judy Parfitt, and Pam Ferris, amidst the London Blitz. It is scheduled to broadcast during the forthcoming Christmas period.
Call the Midwife is available to stream on BBC iPlayer
Speaking about the Death in Paradise spin-off, which she has starred in since 2023, Felicity reflected: “I think the acting’s very good in it.
“I’ve acted for 43 years and I know when I’m acting with someone when I think it’s vacuous and nothing’s happening, and everyone’s really doing their job.
“It’s brilliantly directed and produced, and with Tony Jordan at the helm I just feel very, very safe.”
Tim and Simon then showed a clip of Felicity acting opposite Derry Girls star Dylan Llewellyn, who plays Constable Kelby Hartford on the BBC mystery show.
After the scene ended, the host praised Dylan as “such a lovely bloke”, prompting Felicity to reveal that a cast reunion is happening very soon.
“Yes, he is,” she agreed, “We’re all meeting up in a couple of weeks’ time, which is very nice.”
Asked where the show is based, Felicity confirmed: “In Devon. Shipton Abbott, it’s called in the programme.”
However, she then confirmed that the show is really filmed in Looe, which is located in Cornwall.
“It’s great,” she continued, “The fish mongers have gone really upmarket since we’ve been there…
“And I was going to talk to them because I thought their prices had gone up, but then I thought I’d better not start,” she quipped.
Beyond Paradise is set to return this Friday at 8pm, which is good news for fans missing Death in Paradise, which concluded its latest season two weeks ago.
Elsewhere on Sunday Brunch, Simon and Tim interviewed Keith Lemon comedian Leigh Francis and his wife Jill Carter, who admitted she was “nervous” about making her on-screen debut.
Trainspotter and social media star Francis Bourgeois was also included in today’s line-up, while Marvel actor Fra Fee and singer Jordan Rakei also appeared as guests.
Sunday Brunch airs every Sunday at 10am on Channel 4.

Death in Paradise actress Joséphine Jobert’s crime thriller Saint-Pierre is set to finally arrive on British screens a full year after its debut on Canadian broadcaster CBC.
The show, which also features Allan Hawco, known for his role in the Amazon Prime series Jack Ryan, will launch on U&Alibi on Thursday, 23 April at 8pm.
While Saint-Pierre has already completed two seasons in Canada, UK audiences will be starting from scratch, with the opening episode introducing viewers to the lead characters, Donny ‘Fitz’ Fitzpatrick, portrayed by Hawco, and Deputy Chief Geneviève ‘Arch’ Archambault, portrayed by Jobert.
The crime series has already been hailed by audiences on IMDb as a “must-watch” show, with the episode entitled ‘Kill Lil’ receiving particular acclaim as one that “hits all the right notes”.
One devoted fan confirmed they are “Obsessed” with the series, while another enthused: “We love this show so much!”, reports the Express.
The official synopsis for Saint-Pierre reveals: “After the Royal Newfoundland Constabulary Inspector, Donny Fitzpatrick (Fitz), digs too deeply into a local politician’s nefarious activity, he is exiled to work in Saint-Pierre et Miquelon – the French Territory nestled in the Atlantic Ocean.
“Fitz’s arrival disrupts the life of Deputy Chief Genevieve Archambault (Arch), a Parisian transplant who is in Saint-Pierre for her own intriguing reasons.”
It goes on: “As if by fate, these two seasoned officers – with very different policing skills and approaches – are forced together to solve unique and exciting crimes.
“Although the islands seem like a quaint tourist destination, the idyllic facade conceals the worst kind of criminal activity, which tends to wash up on beautiful shores. At first, at odds and suspicious of each other, Arch and Fitz soon discover that they are better together.”
The Saint-Pierre ensemble also features Benz Antoine, Erika Prevost, Jean-Michel Le Gal, Tamara Podemski, James Purefoy, Maxim Roy, and Tim Rozon.
While lead star Joséphine Jobert originally appeared in Death in Paradise as Detective Sergeant Florence Cassell from 2015 to 2019, before making a comeback to the BBC program for series 10 and 11, spanning 2021 to 2022.
The performer returned in 2024 for series 13, with her character Florence last glimpsed departing into the sunset alongside Neville, portrayed by Ralf Little, who similarly left the show.
Saint-Pierre airs on U&Alibi from 9pm on Thursday, 23 April 2026
Things took an amusing turn on BBC Breakfast after beloved host Naga Munchetty made a mistake live on air before clearing up any confusion with viewers.

BBC Breakfast’s Naga Munchetty says ‘oh no’ after blunder ‘don’t know what I was thinking’(Image: BBC)
Naga Munchetty was reassured by her co-host after she slipped up on BBC Breakfast this morning.
The BBC show returned to screens on Saturday (April 11) for another instalment. Naga and Charlie Staytwere back at the helm to discuss some of the biggest stories hitting the headlines, including the news of Artemis II returning to earth.
But things took an awkward turn when Naga – who has been a staple on the long-running programme for several years – made a small blunder while on air. Talking to viewers, Naga told them the time.
“It’s 13 minutes past one,” the popular presenter stated, before realising her mistake. She declared: “Oh no! 13 minutes past seven is the time.”
Turning to co-host Charlie, Naga added: “I don’t even know what I was thinking!” Charlie then chimed in: “Can I hazard a guess that you were still in ‘what time did Artemis come down’?” referring to the astronaut crew of Artemis returning to Earth early in the morning.
Talking about the time the crew landed on Earth, Charlie added: “Which was I think seven minutes past one. You’re stuck in that moment maybe?”
A cringing Naga then addressed the viewers, clarifying: “Can I just say for everyone watching, you haven’t got up too early or you haven’t overslept. It’s 13 minutes past seven!”
In the early hours of Saturday morning (April 11) the astronauts of Artemis 2 returned from the Moon with a splashdown in the Pacific. Rick Henfling, the mission’s entry flight director, says the Artemis 2 crew is “happy and healthy” after landing.
He said: “I saw Victor (Glover) was smiling and in good spirits, everyone is happy and healthy and ready to come back to Houston.”
The crew travelled 252,756 miles (406,771 kilometres) from Earth, smashing the distance milestone of 248,655 miles (400,171 kilometres) previously held by the Apollo 13 crew for 56 years.
Their epic voyage took them around the far side of the Moon, normally hidden to the human eye, which included a 40-minute communication blackout when they were cut off entirely from their home planet.
BBC Breakfast airs Monday to Sunday at 6am on BBC One.
I went on Saturday Kitchen and spoke to the celebrity guest (Image: BBC/Steffan Rhys)
Saturday Kitchen has been a regular part of the weekend for millions of people over the years. In the days before I had children, I enjoyed nothing more than starting off the weekend slowly with some relaxing, wholesome TV over brunch and a cup of coffee.
I adored not only the live studio cooking fronted first by the legendary James Martin then the equally watchable Matt Tebbutt, but also the segments from the likes of Rick Stein, Mary Berry or the great Keith Floyd slurping his wine while cooking up his rustic, no-nonsense meals somewhere in the south of France.
In fact, I loved it so much that I actually appeared on the show. Remember those days when two random members of the public would be studio guests and would sit at the table off to the side of the set while the guest chefs and celebrities wondered who they were and what they were doing there? Yep, I was one of those.
This was obviously quite a while ago — Saturday Kitchen stopped having members of the public as guests back in 2012, with James Martin saying afterwards: “That wasn’t my decision. I liked having the studio guests. It was the BBC’s decision. Budget cuts — and don’t look at me, I didn’t get a pay rise.”
James wasn’t the only one who was disappointed, with viewers taking to forums to ask why the show had got rid of its non-celebrity guests. One said: “Every Saturday without fail I watched Saturday Kitchen. Now it is just another cookery programme with, nine times out of ten, a boring guest. Bring back the viewer guests, get rid of the celeb.”
Not everyone agreed, though, with one saying: “Er, the viewer guests did nothing, they were hardly ever interviewed, they added little to the programme. So how can that be a loss?”
Viewers also speculated whether their sudden absence was down to the cost to the BBC of paying the guests’ hotel and transport costs. However, having been a Saturday Kitchen guest, I can confirm that the BBC didn’t pay for either of these things. Rightly so, of course.
This is how it worked. There were always two guests, usually a couple (or two friends if someone’s other half was too embarrassed to go on with them). You had to submit an application, including a picture, and then hope for the best.
Not long after we submitted our application, my partner and I got a phone call from a show producer telling us they would like us to be guests on the show. She said something like “As soon as we saw your picture we knew we had to have you on the show.” Which, if you had seen the picture, or any picture of me really, you would find hard to believe. Still, the flattery worked and we were booked on.
The only instruction I can remember being given about our appearance was not to wear black. I forgot this instruction and wore a black shirt, meaning I had to scrabble around on the day to find something to wear over it — which ended up being a beige-coloured tank top. Lovely.
Next we had to get ourselves to the Saturday Kitchen studio, which at that time was in the Kennington area of London, not far from the Oval cricket ground. We were asked to arrive at a stupidly early time in the morning (the show starts at 10am) and were shown into the green room to wait. We were even there before James Martin because I remember him arriving in the car park outside in what my partner described as “one of his funny little sports cars”.
We got to watch from the wings as James and the guest chefs practised their dishes and then it came time for the live show to start. I don’t remember being told not to speak unless spoken to but I didn’t say a word during the entire live broadcast. My partner was interviewed, though, and described having recently cooked a lobster when we’d been guests in a Michelin-starred kitchen.
Her description had the celebrity guest, Eve Myles, laughing out loud and James abruptly moved the conversation on! I still remember the warm way Eve laughed, she seemed genuinely tickled.
But after the show came a moment I still cringe about. I happened to leave the studio at the same time as Eve, who has just starred in one of the best TV crime dramas I’ve seen in a long time. As we both lived in roughly the same area of the UK at the time, I offered her a lift for the 150-mile journey home. Obviously, as any sensible person (let alone a well-known TV star) would, she politely declined this offer of a long lift home to Wales in a battered old Fiesta from a stranger. A less kind celebrity may well have been more blunt in her refusal. But Eve did her best to be polite despite my idiocy, which I’ve always remembered.
Incredibly, this wasn’t my only cringeworthy moment from that day. I’ve also worried ever since that I offended the hugely successful TV chef Jason Atherton, when I asked him at the chef’s table during a break in live filming why he didn’t have a recipe book out. He replied: “I do.” This was way back in 2008 but I’ve still not fully got over the embarrassment.
So, if Eve or Jason happen to read this, please accept my very late apologies. Thankfully, I don’t think I embarrassed myself in front of James Martin or the show’s other guest chef, Bryn Williams (they must have had a Welsh theme that day) and I’ll always remember being on the show. It’s a shame no one gets to any longer. Bring back the guests, BBC!
Lord Sugar has chosen his 2026 finalists after the candidates faced several tense interviews
The Apprentice 2026 finalists revealed as fans fume over ‘robbed’ candidate(Image: BBC/Naked)
BBC’s The Apprentice has confirmed its 2026 finalists after eleven weeks of tough challenges.
Thursday’s (April 9) episode saw the final five candidates – Dan Miller, Karishma Vijay, Lawrence Rosenberg, Pascha Myhill, and Priyesh Bathia – prepare for the dreaded interview stage of the process, with Pascha and Karishma later advancing to the final.
Earlier in the episode, the business hopefuls were set to face a gruelling round of interviews with some of Lord Sugar’s toughest-talking business associates, Claude Littner, Claudine Collins, Linda Plant, and Mike Soutar.
Their business plans were picked apart, products were blind tested, and even a unique cocktail was prepared on the spot. Some contestants held their own, while others crumbled under the pressure.
Back in the boardroom, Lord Sugar had a tough decision to make, as only two candidates could make it through to next week’s grand final.
After a series of “brutal” interviews and debates in the boardroom, it was the end of the competition for Dan, Lawrence and Priyesh, while Pascha and Karishma sailed through to the grand finale.
Many viewers were delighted by the decision, with one person writing on X (formerly Twitter): “My final 2 are in the final!”
Another added: “Girl power final,” while a third said: “Best finalists they’ve had in a long time!” A fourth fan echoed the sentiment, saying: “Oh I am so pleased, an all female final. Well done ladies.”
However, some viewers were surprised that Lord Sugar didn’t choose to send Dan through, as he already runs a successful student recruitment company.
“I don’t think Dan should have been sent home,” one person wrote, with another adding: “Dan was robbed of the final 2.”
A third said: “I did not see that coming,” with another similarly sharing: “Gutted for Dan but if he can get control of finances he could be very successful in future.”
Recruitment consultant Pascha is proposing a new recruitment company within private healthcare. She aims to focus on supplying experienced, compliant, and compassionate professionals to private nursing homes, care homes, supported living services, and domiciliary care providers and nurseries within the UK.
Meanwhile, beauty brand owner Karishma is seeking investment to elevate her current business. Kishkin is a skincare-infused beauty brand that creates powerful and potent products that simplify a lengthy trend-driven skincare routine.
Next week, Pascha and Karishma will be joined by some of this series’ candidates as they launch their businesses to a room full of industry experts, and some legends from the last 20 years. This all comes before Lord Sugar decides who will become his next business partner.

The popular detective series first aired back in 2024 and features David Mitchell and Anna Maxwell Martin
The first series saw a huge cliffhanger(Image: BBC)
There’s brilliant news for fans of the hit detective series Ludwig, as it looks as though it’ll be back for a third series.
The BBC crime drama initially premiered in 2024 and featured David Mitchell portraying twin brothers John Taylor and DCI James Taylor.
When John visited his sister-in-law, Lucy Betts-Taylor (Anna Maxwell Martin), events took a dramatic turn as he discovered his brother had vanished from their Cambridge residence.
As she revealed that James had been behaving oddly while working on a case, Lucy informed John that her husband had instructed her to escape with their son after he failed to return home one evening.
Nevertheless, she defied his instructions and enlisted his twin brother to assume John’s identity and pose as a member of the police force in a bid to uncover the truth, reports Cambridgeshire Live.
Despite his early reservations, he ultimately consented as his puzzle-solving abilities enabled him to recognise that the letter his brother left contained hidden messages.
Following a series packed with twists and turns, John eventually confessed that he wasn’t his twin brother. Yet, they received an unexpected voicemail from the real James.
Acknowledging he disappeared, James instructs his twin to carry on investigating the corruption in Cambridge.
While the second series is scheduled to broadcast later this year, it appears there could be additional episodes in the pipeline as TVZone reports that a third instalment has been commissioned.
The BBC declined to comment when contacted by Cambridge News. Discussing the second series, David Mitchell said: “I’m delighted that John ‘Ludwig’ Taylor has failed to escape the clutches of the Cambridge police and will have to continue to face up to the city’s alarming conundrum-based crime wave.”
Alongside David and Anna reprising their roles in Ludwig, audiences can also expect to see Dipo Ola (DCI Russell Carter), Dylan Hughes (Henry Betts-Taylor), Dorothy Atkinson (DCS Carol Shaw), Ralph Ineson (Chief Constable Ziegler) and Karl Pilkington (DI Matt Neville) all return to the screen.
The series has garnered widespread acclaim from viewers since its debut, with one fan declaring: “#Ludwig on BBC is amazing!” Another enthused: “Oh my goodness @BBCiPlayer – #Ludwig was absolutely incredible! When is series 2 out??!!”
A further viewer remarked: “Clever, witty and perfectly casted! Back to classic entertainment! Just what we need these days, and we need more of it.”
While another enthusiastic fan shared: “A WONDERFUL ENTERTAINING MURDER MYSTERY, EVOCATIVE OF MISS MARPLE HERSELF. Ludwig from the BBC, is a beautiful written mini series.”
The first series of Ludwig is available to watch in full on BBC iPlayer.
SCOTT Mills will not be performing DJ sets at Boyzone concerts this summer after being removed from the lineup.
Mills, 53, was sacked from the BBC two weeks ago following a probe into his personal conduct – seven years after a police probe into alleged sexual offences with a boy under 16 that was later dropped for lack of evidence.

The former BBC presenter had been lined up to spin the decks at Boyzone’s massive shows at the Emirates Stadium in June.
Back in February, Arsenal announced Mills would support the Irish boyband across two nights of their “Two For The Road” concerts.
But in a dramatic U-turn, the club has scrubbed any mention of Mills from its site and it is understood he will no longer appear at the North London venue.
On promotional material, Mills was quoted as saying: “What a dream to support the lads this summer, it’s going to be 2 nights of big tunes, big singalongs and plenty of 90s nostalgia. I hope you’re ready!”
Last week the BBC launched an internal investigation into why he was allowed to stay on air.
In a statement they confirmed The Sun’s exclusive that bosses were aware Mills was being investigated by the Metropolitan Police years ago and was now trying to unravel who knew what and when.
Mills later released his own statement and said: “An allegation was made against me in 2016 of a historic sexual offence which was the subject of a police investigation in which I fully cooperated and responded to in 2018.
“As the police have stated, a file of evidence was submitted to the Crown Prosecution Service, which determined that the evidential threshold had not been met to bring charges.
“Since the investigation related to an allegation that dates back nearly 30 years and the police investigation was closed seven years ago, I hope the public and the media will understand and respect my wish not to make any further public comment.”
The BBC are expected to announce Mills’ replacement for his Radio 2 Breakfast Show in the coming weeks.
He was honoured with the silver plaque on his final day at Radio 1 in 2022, with the 82A studio he broadcast from renamed as 82 Mills.
Insiders said the plaque, which was up in the studio, had quietly been removed over the Bank Holiday weekend.
