Jonas Armstrong (Robin Hood) stars as Ben in Hit & Miss, Sky Atlantic’s new drama series about a contract killer with a big secret: she’s a transgender woman.
TV presenter Keith Chegwin stars alongside Joe Tracini (Coming of Age), Tony Blackburn (BBC Radio 2), Joe Pasquale, Russell Grant (Strictly Come Dancing) in new comedy horror film Kill Keith, out on DVD next week.
Kill Keith sees much-loved television personalities being gruesomely despatched using a variety of breakfast condiments and as the body count grows, so does the hysteria. There appears to be no stopping the Breakfast Cereal Killer as he marches relentlessly towards his ultimate goal… to kill Keith!
We caught up with Keith to find out what he likes to watch to relax between filming…
Favourite TV show to watch before going to sleep:
“Sherlock Holmes. I love a good story and a good plot. I also enjoy competent acting. Sherlock has all those qualities.”
Favourite TV show to cheer you up:
“Graham Norton on Friday nights. I love him and the guests. It’s pure escapism and sets you up for a good weekend.”
TV show that reminds you of your childhood:
“Anything that has the words Robin Hood! I was a RH fan as a kid and would make my own bow and arrows to shoot in the garden. Having a TV series and a film on the go is brill for me.”
TV show that reminds you of being a teenager:
“Big Brother – I shared a house with lots of mates and hated it too!”
Favourite “guilty pleasure” TV show:
“Question Time or Newsnight. My family hate ’em – for some unknown reason I’m engrossed by them!”
TV show that you find most addictive:
“Britain’s Got Talent or I’m a Celebrity or Dancing on Ice or The X Factor. Love them all. I love the winter months – these are great to snuggle up to.”
Axed TV show that you most wish would return:
“Anything I’ve been in during the last 44 years on TV. The repeat fees are rather good and I looked better then!”
Tara FitzGerald reprises her role as Dr Eve Lockhart from Waking The Dead this Autumn in The Body Farm, BBC One’s new six-part crime drama series.
Lara Pulver (True Blood, Robin Hood) joins the cast of Spooks as new Section D leader, Erin Watts, as the spy drama returns for a tenth and final series this weekend.
If the opening instalment of this likeable adaptation of Denise Mina’s novel overdid the ‘80s retro and the Raintown-esque Glaswegian backdrops, the concluding part matches the wistful nostalgia with dark good humour and a seedy, side-street splendour.
In the concluding part of the drama adapted from Denise Mina’s novel, Paddy Meehan delves deeper into the past to try and find a connection between the deaths of Brian Wilcox and Thomas Dempsey.
This autumn Keith Allen (Robin Hood) stars as Detective Inspector Hale in The Body Farm, BBC One’s new six-part crime drama series.
Written and directed by David Kane from the novel by Denise Mina, The Field of Blood is a thriller so smothered in nicotinic, 1980s nostalgia it could almost be called ‘Fag-ashes to Fag-ashes’.
The BBC have released two new promotional images for new crime series The Body Farm , which begins on BBC One this Autumn.
Actor Jonas Armstrong (The Street) has been added to the cast of Hit And Miss, the first original drama from Sky Atlantic.
