She’s no stranger to writing about her relationships, and Taylor Swift’s latest album, The Life Of A Showgirl, is no different – with many of the songs about her love for fiancé Travis Kelce. And now sources tell heat that the pop star is already thinking about her next project – a movie inspired by their love story that Holly wood insiders believe will be the modern-day version of Romeo & Juliet. ‘Taylor is truly prolific – she just has this drive to create that never seems to stop,’ an insider tells heat. ‘Her relationship with Travis has already inspired so much of her writing, but fans have only seen the tip of the iceberg. What a lot of people don’t know is that she also likes to dabble in…

With modern life full of Zoom meetings and endless doomscrolling, it’s no wonder we like to get lost in nostalgic TV programming. Enter: Gilmore Girls. Celebrating its 25th anniversary this year, the show follows single mum Lorelai and her daughter Rory as they navigate life in the quirky New England town of Stars Hollow. We love nothing more than escaping to this cosy locale, where the coffee is as free-flowing as Lorelai’s rants and it’s seemingly always autumn. The show’s enduring charm lies in its cast of eccentric, heartfelt characters – from Sookie’s warmth to Kirk’s lovable oddness, and everyone in between – whose rapid-fire witticisms and deep connections have inspired fans for generations. More than just a show, it’s more like a really good hug in television form –…

Affordable luxe This petite island in the Indian Ocean (it’s just 45km by 61km!) delivers a big holiday experience in every square metre. It’s got powdery beaches, lush green interiors, flavour-packed cuisine, and a laidback atmosphere. There may be showers, particularly between November and April, but the island’s microclimate means even if it rains, you’ll usually find sunnier weather a short drive away. Think Maldives, but not as expensive – some travel experts put it at half the price. It’s a 12-hour flight, but only three hours ahead, so no dreaded jet lag. Mauritius is a bit of a culture club, with Indian, African, French and British influences, plus a dash of Dutch. Language-wise, English will get you far, but French and Creole rule. Scenery that stuns It’s not just…

5, Monday 20 October, 9pm A reimagining of the books by John Galsworthy, known for his trilogy of novels called the Forsyte Saga, this six-part period drama charts the trials and tribulations of said Forsytes, a wealthy Victorian family whose quest for respectability and social elevation of ten comes at their own personal expense. WHO’S WHO The Forsyte family is headed up by the formidable matriarch Ann (Francesca Annis), who is a stickler for tradition and order. The family stockbroking business has been passed down to Jolyon senior (Stephen Moyer), much to the annoyance of his scheming younger brother James (Jack Davenport). The family rivalry is further deepened by Jolyon senior’s plan to make his art-loving son Jo (Danny Griffin) his heir – rather than bequeathing the business to his…

U&ALIBI, WEDNESDAY 22 OCTOBER, 9PM This fun, if nonsensical, new US action thriller stars Melissa Roxburgh as Bex Henderson, a former FBI profiler leading a team of soldiers, spies and special agents to track down escaped serial killers. The series begins with a bold sequence in which there’s an explosion at a highly classified underground prison where the said murderers have been kept, and now some of them are suddenly at large, including notorious serial killer Richard Harris. Desperate to keep the prison secret from the public while rounding up the escaped psychopaths, the government enlists Bex who then has to build a task force to deal with the situation.…

BBC3, MONDAY 20 OCTOBER, 8PM Joe Swash returns with another documentary, this time championing young fathers. Becoming a first-time dad in his mid-twenties, Joe is more than familiar with the challenges of taking on such a big responsibility at such a young age. He travels the country to meet young men in a similar position, working hard to create good futures for their kids. Reflecting on his own experiences and those of the contributors, Joe wants to shatter the ‘deadbeat dad’ stereotype, spark conversation around masculinity and the importance of positive male role models, and celebrate the trials and triumphs of this often-overlooked group of men.…

ITV1, SUNDAY 19 OCTOBER, 10.20PM If you’re not a Star Trek fan, you might assume it’s too late to be converted to its charms, what with a whole complicated bunch of spin-offs and sequels and prequels to digest. But the guys at ITV have decided this series, set in the decade before the original 1960s Star Trek, is interesting enough to get a Sunday night slot on ITV1. In this first season, the crew of the U.S.S. Enterprise is under the command of Captain Pike (Anson Mount), while Rebecca Romijn is Number One, and Ethan Peck plays that pointy-eared dude Spock. And it’s actually a fun ride.…

CERT 15, 126 minutes, in cinemas 17 October STARRING: Channing Tatum, Kirsten Dunst, Peter Dinklage, Ben Mendelsohn, LaKeith Stanfield DIRECTOR: Derek Cianfrance THE PLOT: North Carolina, the early 2000s. Impoverished ex-soldier and divorced father of three Jeffrey Manchester (Tatum) commits a string of cash-register robberies, breaking through the roof of McDonald’s restaurants at night. After conviction, he busts out of prison, living undetected for many months in a Toys ‘R’ Us store (no, really). He plans an escape to South America with help from an old army buddy (Stanfield), but after beginning a romance with mother-of-two Leigh (Dunst), the pull to remain is strong. WHAT’S RIGHT WITH IT? ‘Based on actual events… and terrible decisions’, says the poster tagline, and this incredible true story offers a great role to Channing,…

THE FANTASTIC FOUR: FIRST STEPS DVD/BLU-RAY, OUT 20 OCTOBER This latest attempt at turning the Marvel comic-book into a film sees a quartet of astronauts (Pedro Pascal, Vanessa Kirby, Joseph Quinn and Ebon Moss-Bachrach) return from space with superpowers. They certainly need them when Earth is attacked by a celestial baddie. JURASSIC WORLD: REBIRTH DVD/BLU-RAY, OUT 20 OCTOBER However spectacular the dinosaurs are in this latest Jurassic adventure, the film-makers have at least refreshed the cast. So, along come Scarlett Johansson, Jonathan Bailey (Wicked), Mahershala Ali (Green Book) and Rupert Friend (Anatomy Of A Scandal) to take on the beasties. Director Gareth Edwards made the impressive 2014 Godzilla movie and proves his worth again. LAKE GEORGE SKY CINEMA PREMIERE/NOW, FROM 18 OCT The great Carrie Coon, of The White Lotus season…

We’re told, ‘Now that the divorce is in process, a lot of people in Nicole’s life are urging her to get out there and heal her heartbreak.

With all the talk about Keith’s new romance, there’s a part of her that’s tempted to…

After making her debut appearance as a guest judge on Britain’s Got Talent earlier this month, sources now say that Stacey Solomon could be set for a longer stint on the show after impressing TV bosses. ‘This is a dream come true’ The Sort Your Life Out presenter, 36, stepped in for Simon Cowell when he fell ill during auditions in Birmingham, joining Amanda Holden, A lesha Dixon and KSI on the panel. Stacey – who brought along her four-year-old daughter Rose – called it her ‘dream job’, telling her followers, ‘I’m actually so excited to be a guest judge. It’s a dream come true for me, so I cannot wait to get out there and see what it’s all about.’ Now, an insider tells heat, ‘Stacey absolutely loved being…

Prime Video, Wednesday 22 October In the last decade or so there have been myriad Netflix TV series adapted from the brilliantly twisty books by crime writer Harlan Coben, including Safe, The Stranger, Stay Close, and the massive hit Fool Me Once with Michelle Keegan in 2024, which became one of Netflix’s most viewed series ever. But here comes something different from rival streaming service Prime Video (with whom Coben made his YA series Shelter in 2023): a complex psychological, possibly supernatural, thriller based on an original story idea by Coben, with longtime collaborator Danny Brocklehurst, who also worked on those Netflix shows. It stars Sam Claflin (The Count Of Monte Cristo) as forensic psychiatrist Joel Lazarus, whose life is turned upside down after his psychologist father Dr Jonathan Lazarus…

NETFLIX, THURSDAY 21 OCTOBER Last year’s hugely popular romcom introduced us to a double act we didn’t know we needed in our lives: Kristen Bell and Adam Brody. Kristen played unfiltered serial dater Joanne whose bad luck with men – detailed on her podcast with sister Morgan (Justine Lupe) – seems to run out when she meets hot, funny Rabbi Noah (Brody). The pair have an undeniable, fizzing chemistry that we couldn’t tear our eyes from, and we willed them to overcome the myriad obstacles facing an agnostic falling for a Jewish Rabbi with a protective mother (Tovah Feldshuh). Triumph they did and series two is here to show how NoJo are navigating life as a couple where the feelings burn bright but issues still exist. In particular, Adam’s real-life…

BBC2, THURSDAY 23 OCTOBER, 9PM After her triumphant turn as the title character in detective drama Karen Pirie, we’d frankly watch Lauren Lyle in anything. So, it’s handy that she’s front and centre in this new drama. Lyle plays Mia, a young woman who is recovering from addiction issues, which have left her career in tatters. Fleeing from her life in Scotland, she gets invited to her estranged sister’s wedding in New Zealand. It seems like a good opportunity, but as soon as she gets there, she finds out the bride-to-be is dead upon arrival. Mia then has to cope with the grief while also dealing with the fact that she’s developing an attraction to her late sister’s fiancé Ewan (Jay Ryan). Mia soon realises she’s been plunged into judgemental…

E4, WEDNESDAY 22 OCTOBER, 7PM & 10.05PM Of all potential crossovers, Hollyoaks and Brookside is set to be a nostalgic, must-see spectacle. Both serial dramas were created by the legendary Sir Phil Redmond, with ’Oaks taking over from the Liverpool-based soap when it shut up shop in 2003. Now, as Hollyoaks celebrates its milestone 30th anniversary – still shot in part on the former Brookside set – it seems only right that the two shows should come together. In these crossover episodes, fans are promised the return of some iconic Brookie characters, including Sheila (Sue Johnston) and Bobby (Ricky Tomlinson) – and here’s hoping for a Sinbad and Jackie Corkhill reunion!…

CERT 15, 139 minutes, in cinemas 17 October STARRING: Julia Roberts, Ayo Edebiri, Andrew Garfield DIRECTOR: Luca Guadagnino THE PLOT: Yale University philosophy professor Alma (Roberts) is caught in the crossfire when favoured student Maggie (Edibiri) accuses faculty member Hank (Garfield) of sexual assault. Many complications ensue. WHAT’S RIGHT WITH IT? This brainy screenplay from Nora Garrett boldly puts a lens not just on #MeToo, but also on issues of race, gender, sexuality and generational divide, and the cast assembled by director Luca Guadagnino (Challengers) is pretty awesome. WHAT’S WRONG WITH IT? The inflammatory approach may trigger audiences, and the characters’ ample flaws – as well as the highly privileged world that they inhabit – may alienate. VERDICT: Looking for a provocative film capable of igniting conversations? Step this way.…

When Kate Ferdinand and former footballer husband Rio relocated to Dubai over the summer, it was supposed to be ‘a new chapter’. But after a flying visit back to the UK last month, Kate has admitted to struggling with being so far away from home. The former TOWIE star told followers she’d been feeling ‘a little homesick’ and was ‘missing my favourites’ since landing back in the Gulf state – and now sources tell heat she’s been questioning whether the move was right altogether. far away from home. ‘ She feels a bit lost at the moment ’ The former TOWIE star told followers she’d been feeling ‘a little homesick’ and was ‘missing my favourites’ since landing back in the Gulf state – and now sources tell heat she’s been…

Did you look into what forensic psychiatrists do as part of your research? Yes, I did. Wayne Yip, the director, sent me a book where a forensic psychiatrist talks through his experiences. It was really insightful, but the truth is that in this series, he only starts as a forensic psychiatrist and quite soon he almost becomes a full-on investigator. I felt like actually playing into the insanity of Laz was more the direction I was going. So, actually, he’s a terrible forensic psychiatrist! You get the impression that he’s very good in the beginning, but after that it all completely unravels. What interaction – if any – did you have with Harlan Coben? Day one before we even started filming, we had dinner, and he gave me his number.…

SKY MAX/NOW, FRIDAY 24 OCTOBER, 9PM The Walking Dead may have ended in November 2022, after 12 years of stressful zombie mayhem, but several of the show’s surviving major characters live on across spin-offs, set after the main show. Here, for example, is the third instalment of the spin-off centred on the post-apocalyptic journey of the hugely popular character of Daryl Dixon, played by Norman Reedus. Season three follows Daryl and Carol (Melissa McBride) as they struggle with the epic odyssey to somehow return home to their loved ones. But as the series begins, the path takes them further away, leading them to dangerous territories.…

BBC2, Monday 20 October, 10pm We’ve just seen Alex Lawther battling monstrous beasties in the epic sci-fi horror series Alien: Earth, and now he’s starring in this comedy series in a role that could not be further from the unlikely action hero he played in that Disney+ blockbuster. Indeed, this whole show is a universe away from that Holly wood production. Although it does feature, bizarrely, an ongoing narration voiced by actual Julia Roberts. The six-part series is based on the award-winning, bestselling novel of the same name by Rónán Hession, and alongside Lawther as Leonard, it also stars Laurie Kynaston (Fool Me Once) as Hungry Paul, and Jamie-Lee O’Donnell (Derry Girls) as Shelley. And it’s quite unlike anything we’ve seen recently… BEST BUDS The series follows the escapades of…

DISNEY+, THURSDAY 23 OCTOBER As connoisseurs of Keeping Up With The Kardashians, and its latest iteration, we recognise some seasons are not as strong – the amount of pranks and Kylie and Kendall airtime is usually a good indication if it’s killer or filler. Well, happily, season seven looks like an absolute doozy. It covers the trial of the men who stole Kim’s jewellery in Paris, the trauma of a hit being put on Kim’s life ‘by someone close to her’, plus lesser-spotted Rob turns up, as does Caitlyn. Oh, and Kim’s All’s Fair series (coming soon to Disney+) co-stars Sarah Paulson and actual Glenn Close pop round, too! Mind. Blown.…

Will the police believe her? Over at The Vic, Kat reaches breaking point when Zoe steals money from the till, but is left reeling after her daughter drops a bombshell. CORRIE GET OUT OF TOWN! Corrupt Costello wants Becky to go back into hiding, so arrests Betsy in order to give him leverage. But Becky has evidence proving her daughter’s innocence, so Costello announces…

WORLD CLASS TV World’s Apart (Channel 4) is so much more than just a Race Across The World wannabe, and only a fool would dismiss it as such. Yes, the challenges themselves are completely ridiculous, but the pairings are so well cast that we can forgive it. We especially love the dynamic between secret softie Aaron and his no-nonsense partner Val. OTHERWORLDLY OUTFITS The outfits that Aimee Lou Wood’s Evie wears in Film Club (BBC3) for the weekly meet-ups are just phenomenal – especially the astronaut suit for Interstellar. All hail costume designer Emily Hall and wardrobe supervisor Caroline O’Malley. WILD AT HEART Every day’s a school day, especially when you’re watching Harry Wild (U&Drama). ‘Pictures are hung, people are hanged’, and ‘Emigrated is when they go, immigrated is when…

CERT 15, 97 minutes, in cinemas 17 October STARRING: Seth Rogen, Aziz Ansari, Keanu Reeves DIRECTOR: Aziz Ansari THE PLOT: Cash-strapped Arj (Ansari) thinks his luck has changed when wealthy Jeff (Rogen) makes him his PA. When Jeff fires him, kindly angel Gabriel (Reeves) decides they need a spell in each other’s shoes. WHAT’S RIGHT WITH IT? Play fully riffing off the likes of Trading Places and It’s A Wonderful Life, writer-director Ansari has concocted an appealing fantasy that suits his exasperated every man persona. Yet it’s Reeves who shines brightest as a celestial being befuddled by humanity. WHAT’S WRONG WITH IT? Keke Palmer is underused as Arj’s unioniser girlfriend, while the anti-gig economy messaging feels clumsily heavy handed. VERDICT: A patchily entertaining body-swap comedy, lent a heavenly lift by…

FILM PREDATOR: BADLANDS The last Predator live-action movie Prey in 2022 was a thrilling surprise, and now its writer/director Dan Trachtenberg is back with this new entry in the franchise. It stars Elle Fanning in two roles – Thia, a synthetic being who joins forces with a young predator to embark on a dangerous mission; and also Tessa, Thia’s enemy who’s trying to scupper her journey. In cinemas, 7 November. FILM ANEMONE Daniel Day-Lewis came out of retirement (it’s been eight years since his last film Phantom Thread) to star in this new movie, directed by his son Ronan Day-Lewis. They co-wrote this story together, in which Daniel plays a virtual hermit, living off-grid in the wilds of Yorkshire, while Sean Bean plays his brother, trying to bring him back…
