KATHRYN FLETT: First things first: don't under any circumstances voluntarily book yourself on a long-haul flight with North China Air - by the end there are likely to be more bodies in the hold than there are suitcases. Also, NCA do something I didn't think airlines were allowed to do any more, which is to have the captain popping in and out of the pointy bit up front leaving just the co-pilot in charge. Oh, and they don't seem to have back-up crew either, which I thought was now de rigueur on long-haul flights.And (while we're at it!) when the cry of, 'Is there a doctor on board?' goes up, obviously it's great if most of the doctors are still alive...

ITV's new thriller Red Eye has been slammed by viewers for being filled with 'plot holes' and being 'implausible'. The brand new six-part drama starring Richard Armitage kicked off on Sunday night, but while some admitted it was 'gripping', many thought the plot left much to be desired.  The plot follows Dr Matthew Nolan (Richard) - a British surgeon who's arrested at Heathrow Airport after returning from a medical conference in China.

CHRISTOPHER STEVENS: Red Eye (ITV 1) You'll never want to turn left again. Economy class might be cramped, noisy and depressing, but at least the cabin crew aren't actively trying to murder you. On an all-night flight to Beijing, in Red Eye, handsome surgeon Dr Matthew Nolan (Richard Armitage) was served a vegan meal laced with poison, while a passenger with a concealed handgun sat behind him and a sinister stowaway was stalking the aisles.

Written by Peter A Dowling, who knows about nerve-shredding plane journeys having created the 2005 movie Flightplan starring Jodie Foster, Red Eye is a heart-racing thriller starring Jing Lusi and Richard Armitage (left and right). 'Red Eye is like a contemporary Agatha Christie in that you're trapped in a contained location and people are dying,' says Peter, a Brit who lives in the US.

Jing Lusi (left) has risen from soap star to flourishing Hollywood sensation, with roles in huge ensemble films including Argylle and Crazy Rich Asians (inset) in her repertoire. And the 38-year-old actress is also set to cement herself as an action hero in ITV 's upcoming thriller Red Eye (right) - as no-nonsense cop DC Hana Li, tasked with escorting a British doctor (Richard Armitage), who was arrested for murder upon flying home from Beijing .

During an appearance on The Graham Norton Show, which will air on Friday night, Coronation Street actor Paul McCarty, 36, shared details about the experience.

Nothing gets people talking about a sex scene in 2023, which made British viewers incredibly hot. Channel 4 sparked controversy when it aired a sex experiment show that culminated in a 15-person orgy. Viewers branded Fellow Travelers, the 'hottest TV show ever', because the chemistry between two male politicians was palpable.' Audiences were also shocked by the hot scenes in romantic comedy Red, White & Royal Blue, which tells the enemies-to-love story about a British prince who falls for the US President's son. Richard Armitage left little to the imagination in Obsession as he bared all for a nude scene in the Netflix series.

Two online polls were done by a researcher from the University of Brussels in Belgium using black and white photographs of celebrities and non-celebrities. Both male and female participants were shown a series of photographs of faces and asked to comment which jaw they liked best.

Netflix has revealed that it would soon be releasing another version of one of American author Harlan Coben's most popular mystery-thriller books. Since the 'epic' trailer was announced on Thursday that it will be published on New Year's Day, fans of the streaming giant have confirmed that they cannot wait to binge the forthcoming season of Fool Me Once.

'When ex-soldier Maya discovers her killer on a dark nanny cam, she uncovers a deadly plot that has long since existed.' 61, the New York Times best-selling author, was quick to announce his excitement on X. 'I'm excited to show the trailer for FOOL ME ONCE', which will be available on Netflix around the world on January 1, so you can binge while nursing the hangover.'

On Thursday, the highly awaited trailer for Harlan Coben's thriller Fool Me Once was released.

The trailer depicts happy beginnings for the couple on their wedding day and family life before Maya's world is torn apart.

The first glimpse shots of Michelle Keegan's latest Netflix project have been published - and fans don't have long to wait.

Doctors have been barred by the BBC for 23 years as a result of falling sales and rising costs, with the final episode set to air next year. Countless characters have visited the Riverside Health Center over the years, with several famous faces making surprise appearances. After a flurry of attempts to bring the show to a primetime slot that was unsuccessful to draw in viewers, the cast and crew of the beloved soap were apparently called into a meeting with channel bosses on Wednesday where they learned the sad news.

ALISON BOSHOFF: Of mice and men... Of pigeons and chipolatas. We're only talking about Coleen Rooney (left) and Rebekah Vardy (right), and the highly awaited Disney+ documentary Coleen Rooney (right) will be broadcast on Wednesday. Ms Vardy will detail her experience during the three-part series, and I'll participate as well, providing the circumstances surrounding Ms Vardy's comparison of her fellow WAG to a pigeon pooping on your head. Coleen told me, "I knew what I believed from the beginning to the end." I've been given the opportunity to share my side of the story, including how and why it happened and how I feel about it all now. I'd never stepped into a courtroom before nor had the apprehension of being caught on the stand.'

The Idol, HBO's most recent hit series, has sparked a lot of controversy on social media due to its graphic nudity and sex scenes. Lily-Rose Depp and TheWeeknd, a pop star and a cult-leading nightclub owner who became embroiled in a tumultuous friendship, are among them. And though the show has courted controversy over its sex-driven content, it is still a long way from some of television's most popular shows, from Normal People to Sex/Life to Netflix's megahit Bridgerton.

Richard Armitage, the Obsession actor, has revealed that he does not want to see himself naked on Netflix. I've never seen my naked butt on camera and I don't want to see it,' says Hobbit actor Richard Eden of The Daily Mail. The 51-year-old actor mused: "I'm in denial." I just want to hear what everyone else says.'

After filming the tense sex scenes in Netflix's thriller Obession, Charlie Murphy has revealed she was left 'covered in bruises.' On the program, the actress, 34, talked about working with an intimacy coordinationator, which she said left her feeling 'empowered.' Anna, a woman who begins an affair with her fiancé Jay's father William (Richard Armitage), is the protagonist in the series.

It's arguably Netflix's most racially charged and controversies season to date. But Obsession viewers are all saying the same thing about a scene that occurred on a hotel pillow and the show's male protagonist, William, played by Richard Armitage, 51, tells the tale of a respected London surgeon who has a dispute with his son's fiancée, Anna Murphy, 34, who appeared on Happy Valley.
