Amanda Holden suffers blow as controversial Netflix show axed despite success

Despite a very successful first season, Amanda Holden's Netflix show has landed on the scrap heap. In April, Cheat: Unfinished Business arrived on the streaming platform, with Britain's Got Talent judge Amanda, 54, and Celebs Go Dating expert Paul Brunson, 50, as hosts. The format raised eyebrows before the first episode had even landed, as many were sceptical upon learning participants would be reunited with their cheating exes. Filmed in Majorca, Spain, eight former couples, who broke up because one was unfaithful, visited a luxury retreat to see if it was possible to work through their differences. Cheat proved extremely popular with streamers, finding itself in Netflix's top 10 most-watched shows in 22 countries, including the UK and the US.

Alas, it seems those stats weren't enough to convince commissioners that a second season was viable. To view this video please enable JavaScript, and consider upgrading to a web browser that supports HTML5 video A source told The Sun that the reality series won't be back, explaining: 'Despite Cheat being popular with audiences, Netflix has decided to pursue new show formats.' A Netflix spokesperson also confirmed: 'Cheat: Unfinished Business won't be returning.' However, this might not be the last we see of Amanda on the service. 'Bosses love Amanda and are in talks with her on three different show ideas, so it's likely fans will see a lot more of her on the platform in the future,' added the insider. 'Amanda is still very much one of the hardest-working women in showbiz and is booked and busy for the foreseeable future.' Indeed, there's no shortage of work for the TV personality, who co-hosts Heart FM's breakfast show each weekday morning, alongside Jamie Theakston. Listening figures for the show have soared in recent months, seeing Heart overtake BBC Radio 2 to become the biggest commercial breakfast show in the UK with 4.2million weekly listeners. On top of that, Amanda is due back for BGT auditions filming in October, as well as a fourth series of her renovation show with comedian Alan Carr, having been shooting in Greece this summer. And as if all of that isn't enough, Amanda's quiz show, The Inner Circle, launches on BBC One in October, with a cash prize on the line for players to take home after testing their general knowledge and strategic thinking. Relationships expert Paul has also seen a spike in popularity this year, thanks to his We Need To Talk podcast, which has featured celebrity guests such as Tulisa, Maura Higgins, Katie Price, and Cher Lloyd. Before Cheat launched this spring, the Washington-born star expressed his excitement to be working alongside Amanda so they could dive into 'all the grey areas of infidelity' together. 'To work with Amanda Holden has been a dream of mine, so with her on board, there was no way I could say no,' he praised. Amanda was also 100% in, having hailed Cheat as her 'dream' job, most likely making its cancellation all the more gutting. More Trending She told the Daily Mail: 'It is my dream job; if I could have manifested a job… this would have been it. It is the job I have wanted my whole life, and it's finally happening. 'A series about second chances and unfinished business. I can't wait, along with Paul, to meet and help these couples work out whether they can forgive and forget. I'm absolutely thrilled to be part of it.' Season 1 of Cheat: Unfinished Business is available to stream on Netflix. Got a story?

Interview with Linder Sterling

Liverpool-born artist Linder Sterling has remained a powerful female force in British art for fifty years. Her current exhibition, Linder: Danger Came Smiling, a retrospective, is currently on show at the Royal Botanic Gardens in Edinburgh. 'The eye is courted all the time; everybody is staring at screens like mass hypnosis.' 'It's a very handsome city in a swanky way,' says Linder of her run in the capital. 'It has a unique identity, and most people are welcoming and talkative; it reminds me of growing up in Liverpool, there is that same openness and curiosity. When you get that light in the summer, I can't recall a light like it, and there's also the close proximity to the sea'. Linder was one of the 'Manchester 50', a group of artists and musicians based in the city that went on to define British pop culture. A seismic event and one that set Linder on her path was a Sex Pistols concert in 1976. 'Everyone was there at the Lesser Free Trade Hall. The person taking my money, which was 50p, was Johnny Rotten. He was wearing a lurex, retro Teddy boy suit, and later he was on stage where this glorious din was happening. No doubt, it changed the path of my life and that of many others, such as Howard Devoto and The Buzzcocks. Something very magical was happening; there was a glamour and a bewitching quality. Sir Walter Scott might have been disarmed by that amount of glamour in one room; there was definitely something at play.' Linder's pioneering, surrealist, and feminist artwork was featured on the cover of The Buzzcock's first single Orgasm Addict. The famous image displayed a woman's body with a domestic steam iron for a head. 'During punk, people were cutting themselves. I was lucky I didn't cut myself. I was cutting out pictures in magazines. I've no idea the claustrophobic effect of the domestic sphere (with the art), I just let it happen. I never push, even with the photo montages, there's no engineering.' Fifty years on, perhaps the best measure of a shift in society is perception from the public. 'There is always that multiplicity of meanings. I never attached a meaning, and I struggle to say what any of the work is about. When I heard some young women talking about the photomontages of the female figures, they didn't see them as women encumbered, they saw them as cyborgs; that was a very exciting moment.' Linder would also provide cover art for Howard Devoto's subsequent post-punk band Magazine and their first album Real Life. More recently, her work has explored the subject of deepfaking and digital violence. 'I follow the debate carefully, as we know a young woman's life can be destroyed by a holiday picture being glued into a pornographic body, that must be hellish if you are in a small village somewhere and everyone has that image of you.' On the subject of social media, she adds, 'I think the eye is courted all the time, everybody is staring at screens like mass hypnosis, the eye never really stops, it's always binging.' Born in 1954, Linder grew up during Beatlemania, her local councillor was British Prime Minister Harold Wilson, and the Liverpool team she supported with her father were managed by legendary Scot Bill Shankly. 'I thought everyone had a Beatles down the road or that everyone had a councillor like Harold Wilson. There was an intimacy in those formative years. I didn't have pictures of The Beatles on my wall because it was like putting your brothers up. I watched Beatlemania happen in real time, and Cilla (Black) was like someone in the family, but a working-class pop star from Liverpool. In the way she would walk up to a microphone unadorned and sing, it was very powerful.' While cutting pictures out of magazines would help define her as an artist, it began by cutting out pictures of Liverpool players for her bedroom wall during a post-war childhood. 'I come from working-class Irish roots, I'm 70 now, and I've passed that passion onto my grandson. I've just bought him his first Liverpool shirt.' More widely, of the city, she adds, 'I think about Liverpool as being a port, looking at the Mersey and looking out to America and this huge expanse with a sense of freedom. When I think of the port, I think of pilfering and light-fingeredness, and I see how that comes into my work; cutting up precious books or having a magpie eye open for what's lying around like newsprint.' For the second time, Linder has designed her own incense. 'I had to wear a vest for 24 hours to extract my factory DNA and was wearing it when I went to see Morrissey perform in Manchester.' Linder has enjoyed a long and close friendship with the singer since she moved to Manchester during the 1970s. While Morrissey has written an autobiography, it's still something Linder is considering. She was also portrayed by Downton Abbey actress Jessica Brown Findlay in England Is Mine (2017), a biographical drama about the early life of Morrissey, with Jack Lowden playing the Irish-Mancunian singer. 'I decided not to watch it, maybe one day. I've been asked to make a film about my life, but I'm in two minds, one of the reasons is to put the facts straight. There are offers on the table for my autobiography. I've been thinking about a book or a film, but it's been such a busy year.' A book for an artist is a difficult proposition, especially as an essential part of the deal is to remain a mystery. 'Yeah, exactly, the mystery is what we all want and need from those we admire, but not in a dull way. I've not managed to have a reflective time yet, but I'll have to make my mind up very soon, if I did end up under a bus tomorrow, I'd like to think I've written an account of those times.' Linder: Danger Came Smiling is on at the Royal Botanic Garden Edinburgh until 19 October. Like this: Like Related

The film set new standards and is still very suspenseful and creepy even by today's standards." A third wrote: "One of the best movies of the 1990s if not all time. incredible story, amazing actors and a master class in film making." ‌ A fourth replied: "The Silence of the Lambs is an outstanding five-star thriller that completely pulled me in. Anthony Hopkins and Jodie Foster deliver unforgettable performances, making every scene intense and gripping. "The psychological tension, unsettling atmosphere, and smart storytelling kept me hooked from start to finish. It's a masterful film that left a lasting impression on me." ‌ Another praised: "Gritty, disgusting and suspenseful, it gets deep under your skin and makes you gag even after three decades. The undoubted highlight being Anthony Hopkins' performance." Writing for the Winnipeg Free Press, Paul McKie described it as: "The Silence of the Lambs is one of the most intoxicating and absorbing thrillers ever made." Directed by Jonathan Demme, the film also stars Scott Glen as well as Ted Levine and Anthony Heald. The Silence of the Lambs will be available to watch on BBC Two at 10pm on Sunday, August 17 before arriving on BBC iPlayer.
