My TV Week de SARAH VINE: ¡Tremenda basura!

RIQUEZA

Uno de mis programas favoritos mientras crecía era Dynasty (o Die-nasty, como solía pronunciarlo mi abuelo, poniendo los ojos en blanco sobre la parte superior de su periódico mientras Granny y yo nos sentábamos pegados al televisor).

Joan Collins como Alexis Carrington Colby a toda vela fue un espectáculo digno de contemplar, deliciosamente exagerado y tan divertido como un plato de carne de tres días.

A nadie realmente le importaba (o podría molestarle mucho) la trama real: se trataba de los extravagantes enfrentamientos entre las divas del programa, rebotando entre sí con sus egos gigantes y aún más hombreras y pelucas gigantes.

Riches, mis amigos, canaliza ese espíritu alegremente extravagante con gusto y garbo, adornado con ecos de Succession, Empire, Footballers’ Wives y tal vez incluso un toque de EastEnders.

En el papel de Alexis tenemos a Claudia, arrancada ‘de la carretera’ por su millonario esposo Stephen Richards, fundador de la marca de belleza y cabello negro Flair & Glory, una historia de éxito mundial que lo ha convertido en un titán de los negocios británicos.

Esta semana, Sarah Vine revisa Riches, protagonizada por Lr: Ola Orebiyi, Sarah Niles, Deborah Ayorinde y Emmanuel Imani. El espectáculo canaliza el espíritu extravagante de la Dinastía favorita de Sarah.

Si alguna vez el término ‘no mejor de lo que debería ser’ se aplicó a alguien, es a Claudia (interpretada por Sarah Niles de Ted Lasso).

Ciertamente, la ‘otra’ familia de Steve, su primera esposa y sus dos hijos en Estados Unidos, parecen pensar así, al igual que las ‘tías’ (las hermanas de Steve).

Es Dynasty, adornado con ecos de Succession y EastEnders

Dentro de los primeros diez minutos del episodio de apertura, Stephen, después de haber hecho algunas llamadas telefónicas misteriosas, se agarra el pecho como todos los magnates de la televisión desde tiempos inmemoriales, antes de colapsar, apropiadamente, detrás de su lujoso escritorio repujado en cuero.

Hay una carrera loca al hospital, la escena obligatoria de ‘cargar las paletas a 300’ y la reunión de su angustiada familia.

Son Gus (Ola Orebiyi) interrumpe sus giros en el club nocturno, donde sus ‘amigos’ están ocupados acumulando una enorme factura en su tarjeta de crédito, para correr al lado de su padre, solo para ser frustrados por un oficial de policía racista que duda de su flash. auto.

La vanidosa hija Alesha (Adeyinka Akinrinade) no acepta la llamada de su hermana Wanda y continúa delineándose los ojos mientras su padre respira por última vez y Wanda (Nneka Okoye) se aferra a su madre en un pasillo del hospital.

Sarah dice que la escritura nítida y el excelente elenco hacen que Riches sea irresistible

Mientras tanto, en Nueva York, la hija mayor de Stephen, Nina (Deborah Ayorinde), está brindando por el último éxito de su carrera acostándose vigorosamente con un barfly al azar cuando su apuesto hermano menor, Si (Emmanuel Imani), aparece para darle la noticia.

A pesar de su odio mutuo por el anciano, deciden hacer el viaje a Londres para el funeral.

Todo está deliciosamente (y muy prolijo) en su lugar para un clásico enfrentamiento de lectura de testamento. No defrauda.

Claudia cambia el horario del funeral para asegurarse de que Si y Nina se lo pierdan (Alexis estaría orgullosa), pero eso no las desanima.

No te lo estropearé al revelar el resultado, pero digamos que hay algunas narices torcidas.

Un buen elenco y una escritura nítida hacen de este el tipo de basura tremenda de la que es difícil alejarse.

PRINCESA ANNE: EL COMPLOT PARA SECUESTRAR A UN REAL

Mostrando poca emoción por el complot para secuestrarla, la princesa Ana descartó al orquestador Ian Ball como un “hombre tonto”. En la foto durante una visita a los Mares del Sur en 1974

Es 1974 y un hombre llamado Ian Ball tiene un plan. Va a secuestrar a la princesa Ana y conseguirá que la reina le dé 3 millones de libras en billetes de cinco libras usados.

Casi lo logró. Después de enterarse de dónde estaría la princesa simplemente llamando al Palace, lo que ahora parece extraordinario, detuvo su automóvil en The Mall y se detuvo frente a él en su Ford Escort blanco.

Tenía dos pistolas, las compró en un viaje a España y las trajo en su equipaje (de nuevo, extraordinario).

Le disparó tres veces a su guardaespaldas, Jim Beaton, y luego apuntó con el arma a su chofer, a un periodista que pasaba y a un joven policía que corrió al lugar.

Fue golpeado por un miembro del público, un exboxeador, y luego arrestado por otro oficial.

Anne estaba notablemente tranquila. ‘Vete, hombre tonto,’ fue lo que ella dijo.

De hecho, a juzgar por este documental, todo fue un ejercicio de anticuado labios rígidos, y se vuelve aún más fascinante por el hecho de que todos los actores principales, excepto la princesa y su entonces esposo Mark Phillips, relatan el incidente aquí en sus propias palabras.

Beaton cuenta cómo, después de recibir tres disparos, ‘recuerdo haber pensado: ‘Tengo puesto un lindo traje nuevo’… así que me acosté muy suavemente’.

El ex boxeador, Ron, recuerda cómo noqueó a Ball, una afirmación que luego se disputó.

Realmente vale la pena una hora de su tiempo, al menos como un recordatorio de que no siempre fuimos una nación de histéricos.

Azotar a un caballo muerto

Hay nostalgia; y luego está la flagelación de un caballo muerto. Y me temo que la segunda serie del spin-off de Sex And The City, And Just Like That… (Jueves, Sky Comedy/Now) es hasta los huesos del pobre viejo rocoso.

Son solo tres pájaros viejos, incluida Carrie (Sarah Jessica Parker), revoloteando como pollos sin cabeza persiguiendo los últimos vestigios de la juventud. Crezcan, niñas, y tengan algo de dignidad.

Más que nadie, la actriz y campeona de Strictly Rose Ayling-Ellis ha demostrado que ser sordo no tiene por qué ser una discapacidad.

Lleva sus emociones a flor de piel y no tiene miedo de mostrarlas en Rose Ayling-Ellis: Signs For Change (BBC iPlayer), que incluye imágenes de sus ensayos en el West End para As You Like It.

Rose tiene esa expresividad física común a muchas personas sordas, y es una alegría verla interpretar a Shakespeare de una manera que, estoy seguro, será una inspiración para muchos.

Holly Willoughby wows at NTAs without Schofield one year after being booed | Celebrity News | Showbiz & TV

Published

on

Holly Willoughby looked on incredible Tuesday night as she showed off her sense of style in a stunning lilac dress which skimmed the floor.

The gorgeous frock featured a bandeau style corset which cinched in her waist and highlighted her incredible figure as she made an appearance on the red carpet at the National Television Awards 2023.

The 42-year-old took to the red carpet solo as her former co-presenter Phillip Schofield sensationally quit his role on This Morning earlier this year.

The stunning attire designed by Suzanne Nevill London saw Holly put her incredible physique on display as she posed for photos ahead of the big event.

The blonde beauty looked ethereal in the figure-hugging dress which featured a long train.

Holly put on a brave face despite the ITV favourite getting booed when she took to the stage at the award ceremony last year.

The presenting duo attended the awards show on (October 13), where This Morning was named Best Daytime Show.

When she took to the stage alongside her former co-star Phillip the pair were met with faint boos by the audience.

It comes after the presenting duo sparked outrage amid claims the pair had skipped the queue when they went to pay their respects to Queen Elizabeth II at her lying in state in September 2022.

When taking to the stage, neither addressed the controversy, but Phil said the award means “so much to us every year, especially this year”.

He added: “Please don’t think we ever get complacent and please don’t think we ever take it for granted. This means so much to us every year, especially this year. We have the best boss.”

Holly’s appearance at this year’s NTAs comes in the wake of the Phillip scandal which has plagued This Morning after the longstanding presenter, who quit ITV altogether in May, admitted to an “unwise but not illegal affair” with a much younger colleague.

The 62-year-old has since unfollowed Holly on Instagram ahead of the ceremony but still follows her sister Kelly and at the time of writing Holly still follows Phillip on Instagram.

Holly and Phil had been among the regular nominees for best presenters until the long-running scandal, which has also seen staff on the show raise allegations of a “toxic” working environment and alleged bullying.

However, Holly has not been nominated this year and instead her co-star Alison Hammond has been nominated for best presenter.

The nomination is expected to break Ant and Dec’s 21-year winning streak.

The National Television Awards airs tonight on ITVX at 8pm.

This Morning presenters booed by NTAs audience after ITV bosses feared it could happen | Celebrity News | Showbiz & TV

Published

on

Fears that ITV nominees were going to be booed at the National Television Awards appear to have come true.

ITV bosses reportedly feared that This Morning stars might be booed following the scandal that has engulfed the programme since Phillip Schofield dramatically left the show in May.

Phillip, 62, sensationally quit all of his TV roles following the admission that he had an “unwise but not illegal” affair with a younger male colleague.

Viewers watching the show at home heard booing from the crowd when the This Morning team appeared on screen.

Joel Dommett introduced Holly, Alison, Dermot and the rest of the team when the crowd reacted.

Fans were quick to take to X, formerly known as Twitter, to share what they heard.

One fan viewer said: “I heard boos for this morning I’m sorry if they win after all that’s happened, it’s a fix #NTAs2023.”

A second said: “Piers Morgan got more boos than This Morning lmao #NTAs2023.”

Whilst a third supported the This Morning team, writing: “People need to give the whole @thismorning drama a rest, there is zero need to boo someone you’ve never met but feel you “know” #NTAs2023.”

There were also concerns that fans may have taken aim at the cast and crew of I’m a Celebrity Get Me Out Of Here!.

Worries were raised due to Matt Hancock’s controversial appearance in the show. His participation attracted over 1,000 Ofcom complaints.

Despite the backlash, the reality TV show is up for the Bruce Forsyth Entertainment Award, whilst show hosts Ant and Dec are up for the Best TV Presenter award.

Speaking of the worries, a source has claimed: “Bosses see this win as proof of I’m A Celebrity’s ongoing popularity but also a reflection of the fact that it returned to form in 2022 after Covid forced it to be filmed in the UK rather than Australia for two years.

“They don’t want that glorious moment on stage to be affected by anything negative, but they also know the strength of feeling against Matt.”

Piers Morgan was also booed as Joel pointed him out to the audience. Piers took it in good humour as the TalkTV host laughed and shook his head at the crowd’s reaction.

The 20-year-old took to the stage and paid tribute to his dad, saying: “It has little to do with me and everything to do with my dad.”

Bobby looked nervous as he continued: “For over the course of the last 20 years, I’ve consistently heard him say, ‘Because I can’.”

He went on to say: “And him just saying that…because I can,” before lifting the award and beaming with pride.

The camera panned to his father Jeff Brazier, 44, who was visibly emotional as he watched his son scoop the award for Rising Star.

Bobby joined the cast of EastEnders earlier this year to play Freddie Slater.

Whilst on stage Bobby also thanked his EastEnders co-stars.

He praised them for being supportive, lovely and merciful, claiming that it was everything that he needed.

He also joked that his fellow cast are so good that he doesn’t need to ask questions – he can just observe and he automatically gets better.

After he received his award, Bobby told Express.co.uk how he was going to celebrate his win saying: “I’ll have a dance tonight, if my dad wants to… I think I’m going to cry when I see him.”

He was also asked what he was going to do with his gong and thoughtfully responded: “I just want to go and give it to my dad, or Lacey Turner.”

Bobby is also set to appear as a contestant on the 21st series of Strictly Come Dancing in 2023
