Homeland’s latest episode featured hidden graffiti messages accusing the show of racism, painted by Arab artists.

The group were hired to add authenticity to scenes set in a fictional refugee camp – but now they have revealed they used the opportunity to write messages including: ‘Homeland is racist’.

Walls on the Berlin set also featured the slogans ‘Homeland is a joke, and it didn’t make us laugh’, ‘#blacklivesmatter’, ‘Homeland is NOT a series’ and ‘Freedom… now in 3-D!’.

He was already winning the internet with his string of victories and his unique smiles but Jeopardy contestant Matt Jackson made everyone fall in love with him even more with a surprisingly honest gesture.

EastEnders fans are in for a spooky Halloween treat as the BBC soap is treating them to a bumper edition of creepy Walford action. 

The hour long episode, which will air on Friday 30th October from 7:30pm, is tipped to be unmissable too, with a number of long running storylines set to come to the forefront with new developments.

Viewers have recently enjoyed the return of Kathy Beale to Walford and, while details of the storylines involved in the Halloween special remain under wraps, it seems a given that her plotline will be somehow involved.

Additionally, producer Dominic Treadwell-Collins has previously suggested that Halloween would be a big time for Stacey Branning.

Oh Anne Hegerty – how we do love you.

It’s her job to sit sternly at the top of a podium and not crack a smile as she smashes the dreams of contestants into bits. But, believe it or not, Frosty Knickers is only human – and when something tickles you, it becomes impossible not to crack up.

The giggles previously attacked her when Bradley Walsh corpsed at the name Fanny Schmelar – but Anne herself instigated the hilarity all on her own this time as a contestant over-thought a question.

Leading to Bradley Walsh declaring that the show had descended into a farce, here is the brilliant moment here:

Just when you thought The Jeremy Kyle Show couldn’t possibly get any more far-fetched, it’s only gone and outdone itself.

Because not content with having actual living, breathing humans on Thursday morning’s show, events took a turn for the seriously weird as one guest showed up with her dead mother-in-law’s ashes in tow.

No, we promise we’re not making this up:

This might just be the most adorable clip we’ve seen all day – and it comes courtesy of Vin Diesel.

The actor – who’s returning to screens later this month in The Last Witch Hunter – revealed to Jimmy Fallon on The Tonight Show that his seven-year-old daughter Hania sends him text messages on set.

Except he couldn’t resist the opportunity to play the doting dad and share one with the audience.

‘My seven-year-old daughter has an iPhone now,’ he explained, ‘and she just texted me this, if I can read it to you.’

He went on to melt audience hearts by reading: ‘Hi, daddy. I love you so much, I am so proud of you. I miss you so much, I believe in you that you will make an awesome movie. I love you so much, I miss you so much.’

Episode two of The Apprentice reverted to the traditional format of boys (Versatile) versus girls (Connexus) as both teams were tasked with creating a new brand of cactus-based shampoo and an advertising campaign to support its launch.

The task became a battle of two contrasting leadership styles: delegation versus dictatorship. Richard Woods adopted the former approach while Aisha Kasim was rather less democratic.

Versatile had a strong brand concept but their TV ad, digital billboard and pitch were all flawed. Connexus, however, appeared to spend almost as much time bitching among themselves as they did on the task. Their packaging was poor, as were their advertising executions and… Read the full story

There are game show fails. And then there’s this little effort from a recent edition of US favourite Wheel Of Fortune.

In fact it looked a little like this:

First Dates was a bit on the awkward side thanks to a row over who should pay the bill.

Despite getting on well initially, glamorous Elle, 30, and fireman Mark, 38, were at loggerheads after she handed him the £136.99 bill and expected him to cover it.

Viewers hid behind their cushions as she told him: ‘Oh, you need to pay the bill… Of course I’m giving it to you. I never pay the bill on dates. Why would I?’.

‘Why wouldn’t you?’ the dad-of-three replied.

2014’s Eurovision winner Conchita Wurst was the special guest on ITV’s This Morning – and no-one could get over how much she looked like Rylan Clark.

You have to admit, the resemblance is uncanny.

In the lead up to Conchita’s appearance former X Factor contestant Rylan couldn’t get over his excitement at meeting the Queen of the Euro, with Eamonn Holmes at one point asking Rylan: ‘Can’t you act professional?’

‘I can’t, I love her!’ Ryan exclaimed.

Twitter also was shocked by the similarities, although at one point Eamonn told Conchita that she looked like ”a cross between Zayn Malik and Kim Kardashian’.
