All Creatures Great and Small star reveals Channel 5 bosses REFUSED to have her back for remake
Carol first joined the show in the late 1970s no go All Creatures Great and Small star reveals Channel 5 bosses REFUSED to have her back for remake – despite her pleas Click to share on X/Twitter (Opens in new window) Click to share on Facebook (Opens in new window) CAROL Drinkwater revealed Channel 5 bosses have snubbed her for the remake of All Creatures Great and Small. The star, who starred as Helen Herriot in all three series of the charming TV show, was once one of the highest-paid actresses at the BBC. Sign up for the Entertainment newsletter Sign up 4 Carol Drinkwater lives in France with her husband, where she has become known for her novels Credit: Channel 5 Carol, 77, now lives in France with her filmmaker husband, Michel Noll, and is a thriving author. Despite her success, Carol admits that it was a "mistake" leaving the show and has since been cast aside by producers who are planning on rebooting the programme. Speaking to MailOnline she said: "I'd love to have played Mrs Pumphrey in the All Creatures reboot but they wouldn't give it to me. Leaving All Creatures was also a mistake financially. 'What do you think you're doing?' my father asked at the time. "'You're giving away the best card in your hand!' But I don't go in for regrets - it's a waste of energy." Carol and Michel live on a ten-acre olive farm in the south of France, where she writes her Mediterranean travel books, which inspired a series of TV documentary films. The beloved drama returned in 2020 and captured audiences' hearts with the quaint tales of rural Yorkshire life. Following five successful series, viewers have been eagerly awaiting news on whether James Herriot and the gang would be back for more. The beloved cast have now been given the green light to start filming for the much-anticipated sixth series. Earlier this year, Samuel West, who plays Siegfried Farnon, took to social media and unveiled a snapshot of a clapperboard revealing that production for the new episodes already has begun. Taking to X - formerly Twitter - he teased: "Thanks for your kind comments about #AllCreaturesGreatAndSmall Season Five. "Never long enough... Sad that it's over, but we hope this will raise spirits; we started filming Season Six today, More news later." The show's official Twitter account also posted the clapperboard in its own announcement. They teased: "Attention #ACGAS fans. Exciting news the cast and crew have officially kicked off filming for Season 6 in beautiful Yorkshire today! We can't wait to return to Darrowby with all of you soon." Fans rushed to the comment section to share their excitement, with one writing: 'It's that time of year again, and I couldn't be happier about it." Another added: 'You don't understand how excited I am about this.' A third penned: "Fabulous love this programme, can not wait." A fourth said: "So exciting such a long wait!" A fifth chimed in: "The best show on TV." The release date has not been confirmed, but the new episodes are expected to air on Channel 5 in autumn. 4 She starred as Helen Herriot in All Creatures Great and Small in the 1970s Credit: Getty 4 She said that she was hoping to rejoin the new series but was turned away Credit: Rex

How to get an A-list ‘butt shelf' like Carol Vorderman and Khloe Kardashian without surgery
SCULPTED, lifted and peachy… some celebrities seem to have a bum that defies gravity - the kind that you could rest a wine glass on. In 2025, this is known as the ' butt shelf ', and it has become a gym-lover's goal. 18 Take Carol Vorderman or Khloe Kardashian, for example. Their butts aren't just pert, but they are large enough to protrude like a shelf. It's the same for Chloe Ferry, Demi Rose, Iggy Azalea, Chloe Bailey and Blac Chyna - you could balance a pint on their backsides! And yes, OK, some celebs have gone under the knife for their shelf-like derrieres. But you can build your own set of round glutes without resorting to surgery. Will Duru, personal trainer and founder of fitness app 12Reps, says that the most important thing is to add resistance in the form of weights. 'This is the best way to build muscle and grow your glutes - the muscles in your butt,' he tells Sun Health. 'When you challenge your muscles, tiny tears are created in the muscle fibres. 'It's when the muscles rebuild and repair that they grow back stronger - and in the case of your butt, more peachy. 'Plus, resistance based training also helps support your hormones, such as increasing testosterone, which helps with muscle growth.' It's not just about size when it comes to a butt shelf though; it's about shape, height and structure. To get a juicy behind, you need to be focusing on all of the three gluteal muscles, paying close attention to the gluteus medius and maximus, Will says. The medius is found on the outer surface of your pelvis. It works when you lift one leg to the side. The maximus is the biggest glute muscle and forms the bulk of your butt. 'Certain moves help to build the upper part of the maximus, to really help build that shelf,' adds Will. While a butt shelf might look great in a pair of leggings, tight jeans, a skimpy bikini or short summer dress, strong, perky glutes are also useful for general movement. 18 18 18 'The glute medius is important in lateral movements, balance and single-leg stability, making running, jumping and sprinting feel easier,' Will says. 'Plus, strong glutes help to prevent injuries as they take some of the load off certain joints, such as the hips, knees and ankles.' Fancy yourself a butt shelf this summer? Give Will's four top moves a go. Complete the set reps and aim for four to five sets of each. Go as heavy as you can, while maintaining food form. Keep rest to a maximum of 60 to 90 seconds between sets. 1. Lateral band walks 18 18 LATERAL band walks are one of the best exercises for activating the glute medius, according to research published in the Open Access Journal of Sports Medicine. They work particularly well as a glute warm up before your main workout, and also as a finisher. Place a high-resistance loop band just above your knees and stand with your feet shoulder-width apart. Hold a dumbbell in both hands at chest height. Squat down slightly, keeping resistance in the band. Step your right foot out to the right. Then, bring your left foot to the right, keeping tension in the band. Go for 10 steps on the right side then 10 on the left, resting for 30 seconds between sets. 2. Dumbbell walking lunges 18 18 THIS is a heavy exercise that will test your balance and help you build a shelf. Hold a dumbbell in each hand and stand upright, with your arms by your sides. Roll your shoulders back, then step forwards with your right leg, lowering down into a lunge. Your back knee should tap the floor. Then, push through your front heel to come back to standing. Now, step forwards with your left foot and drop into a lunge again. When you come back to standing, repeat with the right foot. Aim for 20 walking lunges in total - 10 on each side. For this move, it's important to make sure you're always pushing through your heel to really work the glutes. 3. Step ups 18 18 ANOTHER move that will test your balance, step ups are great for working your glutes and boosting your butt. Stand in front of a gym bench or a sturdy high step with a dumbbell in each hand and your arms by your sides. Step one foot onto your platform, driving through your heel to lift your body up to standing. Bring your other foot up to meet the first, before stepping back down slowly and returning to your start position. Aim for 10 to 12 reps per leg. If you struggle with balance, hold one dumbbell in the opposite hand to the leg that's working, and use your free hand to hold onto a nearby support. 4. Donkey kicks 18 18 START on your hands and knees. For resistance, place a dumbbell in the crook of your left knee. Then, keeping your left knee bent, lift it up and back down, squeezing your glutes as you do so. Pause, then return to your start position. Aim for 10 to 12 reps on one side before moving to the other side. 18 18 18 OTHER TIPS TO BUILD A BUTT SHELF AS well as including resistance based glute exercises into your regime, Will recommends taking some extra booty-building steps. 1. Keep increasing your weights 'Progressive overload is essential for consistent muscle growth,' Will says. 'By increasing the challenge on your muscles over time, they keep adapting. 'So as your current weight gets easier, start increasing your weight.' Limited on your weight selection? 'You can also increase the number of reps or sets, as well as slowing the reps down to keep muscles under tension longer, making them work harder,' adds Will. 2. Eat for muscle growth What you do outside of the gym is just as important as what you do in there. 'Protein-rich foods, such as chicken, eggs, fish, beef, tofu and Greek yoghurt, help muscles to repair,' Will says. 'Eat protein shortly after your workout if you can. Try greek yoghurt with berries or hard boiled eggs.' The best sources of protein Protein is found in everything from tuna to baked beans. As a guide, the NHS says the following foods contain: Beef mince (140g) - 28g Battered cod (180g) - 25g Tinned tuna in oil (100g drained) - 25g Salmon (100g) - 23g Lamb chop (70g) - 20g Tofu (80g) - 19g Quorn (100g) - 13g Roasted peanuts (50g) - 13g Chicken breast (40g) - 11g Cheddar cheese (40g) - 10g Cow's milk (half pint) - 10g Soya milk (half pint) - 9g Baked beans (150g) - 8g Yoghurt (125g) - 7g Egg (one) - 7g Peanut butter (25g) - 6g Green lentils (40g) - 4g Healthy carbs like whole grains, potatoes, beans and vegetables, also help you recover - and they're ideal to fuel your workouts. Smaller amounts of healthy fats, such as avocado, nuts and seeds, will help your hormones. Will adds: 'If you want to build a butt, don't be afraid to eat. 'Ideally, you'd be in a slight calorie surplus - eating more than you burn - so that your body has lots of energy to build new muscle.' 3. Always activate To really make the most of your glute workouts, you need to activate the glutes muscles beforehand. 'If you don't, other muscles can overcompensate - such as your back - leaving you injured,' Will says. 'And then you won't get the most out of your workout.' Squats with a resistance band around your knees, bodyweight walking lunges and bodyweight hip thrusts will help to wake up your glutes.

David shocked by Nick's news in Coronation Street spoiler video
To view this video please enable JavaScript, and consider upgrading to a web browser that supports HTML5 video A new Coronation Street spoiler video reveals the moment David Platt (Jack P. Shepherd) learns some shocking news from brother Nick Tilsley (Ben Price). It all kicks off when Mick Michaelis (Joe Layton) escapes from prison. Having been incarcerated for the murder of Craig Tinker (Colson Smith), he's desperate to reunite with his family and do a runner. Sally and Tim Metcalfe (Sally Dynevor and Joe Duttine) almost scupper the plans when they reveal to his son Brody (Ryan Mulvey) that his little sister Joanie (Savanna Pennington) is heading to Weatherfield High for a taster day. Having finally made his escape, the school is the first place Mick heads to. He storms through the corridors and locks Daniel Osbourne (Rob Mallard) and headteacher Orla Crawshaw (Carla Mendonça) in her office, hoping that he would now have free reign to track down his daughter. Little does he realise, Sally has taken her back to Coronation Street and is taking her on a tour of the factory. Later in the week, Nick is concerned that his son Sam Blakeman (Jude Riordan) is keeping something under his hat about the incident. Usually a level headed and chatty young lad, he's suspiciously quiet and refuses to engage. After a conversation with Hope Dobbs (Isabella Flanagan), it becomes apparent that Sam's life was almost on the line when his cousin Lily Platt (Grace Ashcroft-Gardner) refused to help. More Trending She shut herself away in a classroom, and refused to allow him in. Seriously troubled by the incident, Nick heads to the salon to confront David about what happened and his jaw-drops upon realising what his daughter did. He tries to play the incident down, saying that Lily wouldn't purposely endanger Sam, and promises to talk to her. View More » Why has Lily behaved so irresponsibly?
