Former S Club 7 stars are not shy about going on reality TV shows and Tina Barrett could be the latest to take part, she is 6/1 to win Strictly Come Dancing 2010 and her previous Dancing experience will help her, hopefully she can skate!

Plenty Of Big Names In The Mix For New Series

The best of the males is likely to be The Bill actor Gary Lucy, he is an 8/1 chance with Boylesports. Lucy was in Footballers Wives and there must be a link between that and dancing shows as Footballers Wives actresses Zoe Lucker and Laila Rouass are both competing in Strictly Come Dancing. There are several other possible contenders on 8/1 with Boylesports, Louise Redknapp, Sinitta and Gordon Ramsey’s wife Tana all earn an 8/1 quote with Boylesports.

Heather Mills Likely To Be First Voted Off Say Bookie

Heather Mills has been photographed practicing her ice skating and it seems sure she will appear on Dancing On Ice 2010, William Hill make her the most likely to be voted off first, they offer 3/1 and those odds could look generous closer to the time so snap them up now.

Primeval back from the dead!

Tue, 06 Oct 2009 21:42:09 GMT

Earlier this year, as part of its ongoing raft of cost-cutting measures, ITV confirmed that it was cancelling one of its most expensive shows to produce, Primeval. This was particularly disappointing news as the third series of Primeval had proved to be something of a treat, and really helping the show find an identity of its own. It's fair to say that many, including ourselves, were disappointed to see it meeting its maker.

However, out of seemingly nowhere, the show is returning, albeit with a lot more fingers in the pie. A new deal struck between ITV, UKTV and Impossible Pictures will see two new series of the show being made, with Primeval returning to our screens in 2011. Early 2011 will therefore see ITV getting first run rights to series four of the show, while UKTV - through its pay TV channel Watch - will show series five first. Once Watch has shown series five, then ITV will also screen it.

Also listed as production partners on the show are BBC America and Pro7 of Germany. It sounds very complicated to us.

But it's good news. And what's particularly pleasing is that Adrian Hodges will once more be in charge of the show, and that the original cast - including Hannah Spearritt, Andrew Lee Potts and Jason Flemyng - are all set to return too.

13 episodes are being made in all, which will be split into the two series, and both will be screened in 2011. Marvellous news.

Rachel Stevens glows with low-maintenance hair care regime

Tue, 06 Oct 2009 00:42:08 GMT

It appears that married life agrees with Rachel Stevens if new pictures in the Daily Mail are anything to go by.

The former S Club singer and Strictly Come Dancing star was seen walking with her beau Alex Bourne without any makeup and with her hair tied loosely in a bun.

As the paper pointed out, however, hew natural beauty shined through on the trip to the shops.

"Her look was in stark contrast to the heavily made-up and groomed look she had for the GQ Men of the Year awards earlier this month, where she looked like Sarah Jessica Parker," it noted.

Rachel has had an up-and-down career but reasserted her star power last year after coming second in the sixth series of BBC's popular ballroom dancing show.

She has enjoyed some chart success as a solo artist, as well as a member of S Club, scoring two number two singles with Sweet Dreams my LA Ex and Some Girls.
