Winners of BBC show invited to design new apartment in landmark building
A pair of interior designers who won a challenge on BBC One show Interior Design Masters have been invited back to Hampshire to create a brand new show apartment.
Briony and Craig, who won the 'Standout Space' challenge in episode three, have been asked to return to the Royal Haslar waterfront village in Alverstoke.
The episode saw the designers tasked with transforming four luxury retirement apartments in the redeveloped former military hospital.
Their designs impressed the show's judges and the developers of Royal Haslar, who have now invited them back to design a brand-new show home in the next phase of homes released for sale.
Briony said: "It was fantastic to be paired with Craig for this Interior Design Masters challenge, and we learned a lot from each other.
"We both hugely enjoyed spending time at Royal Haslar, with its stunning architecture and parkland grounds a true inspiration."
Craig added: "Being paired with Briony really was the winning combination, and we were thrilled to have won the 'Standout Space' challenge together.
"We are delighted to have been invited back to Royal Haslar to interior design another apartment and can't wait to return."

Pat Power, director of Haslar Developments, said: "It was a pleasure to have the team from the sixth series of Interior Design Masters with Alan Carr at Royal Haslar, to share the beauty of the site and showcase what an inspiring place it is to live in.
"We were excited by the differing styles presented by contestants, each duo bringing something new to Trinity House.
"However, overall, we felt that Briony and Craig created not only a 'standout space', that was consistent throughout the apartment, but one that connected with the building and will, I am sure, resonate with many potential buyers.
"They understood the brief and the uniqueness of the location, which is the reason we are inviting them back to Royal Haslar to create a further one-bedroom show apartment in the next phase of Royal Haslar.
"It will be exciting to see how their further experience in the competition evolves their style and we are very much looking forward to seeing and sharing their design."
Interior Design Masters with Alan Carr continues on BBC One and BBC iPlayer.

What we know about the new series of Not Going Out
New details have been revealed about the return of Lee Mack's hit sitcom Not Going Out, which will take another time leap and get a fresh format. The show's return date has also been confirmed as 13 June. In May 2025, the BBC delighted fans with the news that the sitcom would be back for series 14. First airing in 2006, Not Going Out stars Mack as a fictional version of himself opposite Sally Bretton, who portrays Lucy Adams, and Hugh Dennis, who plays his neighbour Toby. It has enjoyed huge success and has become the UK's second longest-running sitcom behind Last of the Summer Wine, and now viewers are set to see Lee and Lucy in another new phase of life as empty nesters. Not Going Out is no stranger to a time leap - when Lee and Lucy finally got together, fans saw their story jump forward in time in the 2017 series where they were parents of two. Now, the popular sitcom is set for another new phase in Lee and Lucy's lives, as we'll meet them again in the 2025 series after their children have left home. The couple are adjusting to their newly empty nest and will be moving house as they go back to life with just the two of them at home. There'll also be a change to the format in series 14, which according to the Radio Times will follow each episode in real time. It's something the show has done before, but this is the first time the entire series will be in real time. Mack told Radio Times: "What I'm trying to do is get the audience involved, to make them feel like they're witnessing an event that's happened. And hopefully that carries over when you're watching at home." On 23 May, the BBC confirmed that the show would return for a new series in 2025. It was later announced that series 14 would air from Friday, 13 June at 9pm on BBC One, with the whole series available as a box set on BBC iPlayer from then. A series 15 has also been confirmed by the BBC, which will mark the long-running sitcom's 20th anniversary. In a statement, Mack said: "Once again I'm very grateful that the BBC have trusted in us to keep alive the studio sitcom. I grew up watching this genre of sitcom on the BBC, and to be part of it myself is still a dream come true, even after 18 years of doing it. Here we go again….!!" Jon Petrie, Director of Comedy at the BBC, also said: "Not Going Out remains one of the UK's most cherished sitcoms, a true testament to the exceptional comedic talents of Lee and his team. The show's consistent success and popularity speak volumes, and we are beyond chuffed about its return." Mack had previously told The Sun in April that fans couldn't expect the series to return until at least early 2025, if it comes back at all. Sharing his career plans for the future, Mack said: "More 1% Club, more Would I Lie to You? and, for the first year in a long time, I won't be doing Not Going Out. If we do bring it back, we're looking at early 2025." The comedian clarified at the time that despite being the show's creator the decision to make the show was up to the BBC — who has now renewed it: 'We're talking about it now. I'd love to do more, I love doing it, it's great fun, I love the cast but […] it's not always my decision, these things," he shared. "I just wait for someone to say, 'There's a bag of money, get on with it'." Read more: The 1% Club contestant kept £99,000 win a secret from family for almost a year Not Going Out has had 13 seasons so far, and viewers last enjoyed the return of the sitcom for a Christmas special in 2023. In the episode, Lee and Lucy invite a lonely old pensioner to their house for a festive dinner, only for things to start going hilariously wrong. The Christmas special marked the 100th episode for the series and drew in almost 4 million viewers. Not Going Out is available to watch on BBC iPlayer.

28 Years Later star Ralph Fiennes on why his character may surprise fans
28 Years Later star Ralph Fiennes has revealed why his savage-looking character isn't what you'd expect. Sitting on The One Show sofa on Monday, June 2 alongside singer Russell Watson, Fiennes happily divulged some details about his on-screen alter ego Dr. Kelson, who's smeared in blood and muck across the majority of the upcoming horror sequel's promotional material. "I may look a bit scary but I'm actually a humanist," he told presenters Roman Kemp and Alex Jones. Contextualising all we've seen from 28 Years Later so far via trailers and photos, the Conclave and Harry Potter actor began: "People who've seen the earlier films, 28 Days Later/28 Weeks Later, will know that this country has been hit by a disease and people are infected by Rage, and there are one or two survivors. "I'm a survivor. I may look a bit scary but I'm actually a humanist - I'm a doctor in fact." Read more: Where was 28 Years Later filmed? Key locations revealed Ralph Fiennes calls for theatre trigger warnings to be scrapped What happened in 28 Days Later and 28 Weeks Later? Full recap ahead of sequel The chatshow guest went on to share another quite surprising component of the movie. "It's very scary and there are very scary elements as you would expect, but actually at its heart is a family story. The central dynamic is between a mother and son, and I end up attempting to help them." Fiennes was also keen to wax lyrical about returning filmmaker Danny Boyle, who teamed up with 28 Days Later screenwriter Alex Garland for the project. "He's incredibly positive and he brings out, not just of the actors but of the crew, a real willingness and a joy about being there, and his own excitement is very infectious," said the 62-year-old. As the title suggests, the latest instalment in this post-apocalyptic franchise finds Britain almost three decades down the road since the simian-originated Rage virus turned huge swathes of the population into murderous 'infected'. One group of survivors now lives on Holy Island, which is connected to the mainland by a heavily guarded causeway. "When a father and his son leave the island on a mission into the dark heart of the mainland, they discover the secrets, wonders and horrors of the outside world," teases a synopsis. Co-starring is Jodie Comer as an amnesiac mum and wife named Isla, Aaron Taylor-Johnson as her scavenger husband Jamie, Alfie Williams as their son Spike, Jack O'Connell as cult leader Sir Jimmy Crystal, Erin Kellyman as Jimmy Ink, and Edvin Ryding as Swedish soldier Erik Sundqvist. 28 Years Later hits cinemas on Friday, June 20, while you can watch The One Show via BBC One and BBC iPlayer on weekdays from 7pm.
