Nicholas Bailey to return for 'EastEnders' wedding
July 21 (UPI) -- Nicholas Bailey is returning to the British soap opera EastEnders.
The actor, 54, will reprise his role as Anthony Trueman after more than a decade away from the show.
"Back in 2014, Anthony rushed to his father's side when Patrick (Rudolph Walker) suffered a stroke," an official synopsis reads. "Since then, Anthony has led a life away from Walford but when an invite to his father's impending nuptials reaches him, Anthony decides to return for the occasion."
But his trip lasts longer than expects, the description continues.
"It's great to welcome Nicholas back to the EastEnders family to reunite Patrick with his son," said executive producer Ben Wadey in a statement. "But Anthony's plan for a brief return to surprise his father ends up with him staying longer than he expected when he uncovers what has been going on in the Trueman household."
EastEnders celebrated its 40th anniversary earlier this year.

Ellen DeGeneres 'would love' to host another talk show years after toxic workplace allegations
Ellen DeGeneres is not ruling out the possibility of another talk show in her future. During a live conversation with broadcaster Richard Bacon on Sunday, the 67-year-old former talk show host shared that she misses so many things about hosting her own show, but doesn't think that format would work in today's world. "I mean, I wish it did, because I would do the same thing here," she told Bacon, per the BBC. "I would love to do that again, but I just feel like people are watching on their phones, or people aren't really paying attention as much to televisions, because we're so inundated with information and entertainment." Since moving to England in November 2024, DeGeneres has taken her time in deciding on her next career move, admitting she is making that move "very carefully." While she doesn't know what is next for her, she says "I want to have fun, I want to do something. I do like my chickens but I'm a little bit bored." Ellen Degeneres Shows Off English Countryside Home As Sheep Invade Through Open Door The comedian hosted "The Ellen DeGeneres Show" for 19 seasons from 2003 to 2022. The show came to an end two years after allegations of a toxic work environment came to light in July 2020. Read On The Fox News App DeGeneres addressed the allegations during the opening monologue on the first episode of her 18th season. In the monologue, the comedian issued an on-air apology, in which she called herself "a work in progress" before adding she is "especially working on the impatience thing." "No matter what, any article that came up, it was like, 'She's mean,' and it's like, how do I deal with this without sounding like a victim or 'poor me' or complaining? But I wanted to address it," she said in her conversation with Bacon. "It's as simple as, I'm a direct person, and I'm very blunt, and I guess sometimes that means that… I'm mean?" She went on to say that she finds it "hurtful" that she probably can't "say anything that's ever going to get rid of…or dispel" the rumors that she is mean, and that she "hate[s] that people think that." Like What You're Reading? Click Here For More Entertainment News Looking back, she added that it was "certainly an unpleasant way to end" her talk show. When asked about her recent move to the English countryside, she confirmed it was influenced by President Donald Trump winning the election. She told Bacon she and her wife, actress Portia de Rossi, originally planned to split their time between England and the United States, but changed their minds following the election. "We got here the day before the election and woke up to lots of texts from our friends with crying emojis, and I was like, 'He got in,'" she said. "And we're like, 'We're staying here.'" Since moving to England, the comedian and de Rossi have noticed "everything here is just better," highlighting the beauty of the city, "the way animals are treated" and the overall "simpler way of life."

Portia flew her horses here, and I have chickens, and we had sheep for about two weeks."Original article source: Ellen DeGeneres 'would love' to host another talk show years after toxic workplace allegations Solve the daily Crossword

Ozzy Osbourne's Hilarious F1 Interview With Brundle Resurfaces After His Death
Based on facts, either observed and verified firsthand by the reporter, or reported and verified from knowledgeable sources. Newsweek AI is in beta. Translations may contain inaccuracies—please refer to the original content. Former Formula One driver and presenter Martin Brundle's hilarious grid walk interview with Ozzy Osbourne from the 2003 Canadian Grand Prix has resurfaced online after Osbourne passed away on July 22nd in the UK. Osbourne was the lead singer of the heavy metal group Black Sabbath, whose battle with Parkinson's disease since 2019 was no secret. He performed with his band for the last time on July 5, marking the end of an era. A crowd of 40,000 fans watched him in Birmingham, with the concert raising £140 million (approximately $190 million), reportedly for charity. Brundle's grid walk interviews with celebrities have been unexpected at times, given the hustle and bustle on the grid just before a grand prix. A video of him approaching Osbourne on YouTube has had fans laughing and paying tribute to the late celebrity. The video shows Brundle trying to make his way through the crowd to reach Osbourne before calling him a "fruitcake." He said: British rock star Ozzy Osbourne chats with Scottish race car driver Jackie Stewart of Jaguar before the Formula One Canadian Grand Prix at the Circuit Gilles-Villeneuve, on June 15, 2003 in Montreal, Canada. British rock star Ozzy Osbourne chats with Scottish race car driver Jackie Stewart of Jaguar before the Formula One Canadian Grand Prix at the Circuit Gilles-Villeneuve, on June 15, 2003 in Montreal, Canada."I want to have a word with this guy because he's an utter fruitcake, as we all know, and we love watching him on TV." When Brundle does manage to reach him, he asks: "Ozzy, British TV. Good to see you here. "Sharon (Osbourne's wife) had some good news this week, I hear." Osbourne's reply was incomprehensible to Brundle, but he likely said: "I'm good in currently we're writing a musical about the life and times of Rasputin the mad monk, and we just got allowing it to go on Broadway." Brundle replied swiftly, "All right, I'll try and think of a question for that answer. Did you bring the dogs with you?" Osbourne replied: "No they're all at home "sh*tt*ng." Brundle smiled and walked away, saying: "Excellent, thank you very much. I think we'll move on now." Given Osbourne's replies, it is unclear if he was suffering with his well known health conditions or if he was having some fun with Brundle. Fans have reacted to the video, remembering Osbourne after his passing. Some comments are quoted below: A teary-eyed fan: "I'm going to miss him. RIP Ozzy <3" A fan's last tribute: "ALL HAIL THE PRINCE OF DARKNESS!!!! 🦇👑" This fan had an explanation: "Brundle wants to talk to Ozzy because he thinks Ozzy will make a fool of himself. Brundle asks about whats new. Ozzy tells about whats new. Brundle pretends to not have asked about whats new, then preceeds to make fun of Ozzy. Ozzy tells Brundle off in a slightly more polite way than he needs to. Brundle walks away, saying this wasnt very interesting." [sic] Our thoughts are with the Osbourne family at this difficult time.
