In a trailer for Tatum Takeover, the actor channels Elsa from hit Disney movie Frozen, complete with sparkly blue dress and blonde wig.

We think there’s a pretty special rendition of Let It Go on the cards.

Jenna meanwhile can be seen in what looks like a send up of Channing’s Magic Mike routine to Ginuwine’s Pony. A nifty dancer herself, that’s going to be a great moment.

But with their whirlwind relationship coming to a messy end shortly afterwards we’d feared the on-screen proposal might be scrapped from the hotly-anticipated series finale. But… Read the full story

Sir David Attenborough might know everything about one of the rarest prawns on the planet (it’s called the mantis shrimp, FYI), but he knows nothing about football.

‘I last went to a football match 81 years ago to watch Leicester City,’ the 89-year-old admitted. He then went on to recount the match seriously impressing Piers, prompting him to say ‘they’re now top of the Premier League’

‘What’s a Premier League?’ The telly legend asked, deadpan.
