The Stig on Clarkson's Farm episodes? New mystery cast member teased
Fans have joked about The Stig being the mystery guest who could be reuniting with Jeremy Clarkson after a new cast member was announced for Clarkson's Farm series four.
Mr Clarkson presented Top Gear on the BBC from 2002 until 2015 with the character of The Stig a regular feature throughout.
Joined by James May and Richard Hammond, The Stig was dressed all in white with his identity rarely revealed and largely kept a mystery.
Taking part in racing laps, the character was a play on the anonymity of racing drivers' full-face helmets, created by Mr Clarkson and producer Andy Wilman.

The famous trio later left the show and The Stig behind and began The Grand Tour on Prime Video which concluded last year.
Mr Clarkson has since turned his attention to agriculture with the hugely popular Prime Video show Clarkson's Farm.
Taking place at his Diddly Squat Farm in Chadlington, the documentary shows the TV host getting to grips with farming.
With three seasons already released, a fourth instalment will be available to fans from Friday, May 23 on Amazon's streaming service.

The trailer for the new season was released earlier today (Thursday, May 8) and an accompanying write-up teased a new cast member.
A teasing statement said: "The welcome arrival of a new farmhand not only gets the farm shipshape in record time - it also gives Jeremy time to think."
Fans have been quick to speculate if it would be a familiar face reuniting with Mr Clarkson such as Mr May or Mr Hammond.
One superfan, who lives in Oxford and asked not to be named, told us: "It would be great if it was The Stig but I can't imagine him getting any new lap records with that tractor."

Does Steven Die In ‘The Summer I Turned Pretty' Season 3?!
Summer just isn't the same without new episodes of The Summer I Turned Pretty, and thankfully after a year-long hiatus, the beloved Prime Video series is returning for its highly-anticipated final season. Per Prime Video, Season 3's official synopsis is as follows: 'It's the end of her junior year of college, and Belly's looking forward to another summer in Cousins with her soulmate, Jeremiah. Her future seems set, until some core-shaking events bring her first love Conrad back into her life. Now on the brink of adulthood, Belly finds herself at a crossroads and must decide which brother has her heart. Summer will never be the same…' Since The Summer I Turned Pretty's Season 3 trailer dropped on Wednesday, June 11, superfans of Jenny Han's bestselling book series and the show it inspired have been parsing the nearly three-minute tease of the season for clues about what's in store. Beyond the Belly (Lola Tung), Jeremiah (Gavin Casalegno), and Conrad (Christopher Briney) of it all, however, viewers are deeply concerned about the fate of another iconic character: Belly's brother, Steven (Sean Kaufman). Several Season 3 trailer scenes have fans wondering 'Does Steven die in The Summer I Turned Pretty?! Could that potentially be one of the 'core-shaking events' that brings Conrad back into the picture? Say it ain't so! While we'll ultimately have to wait and see what Han has in store for the fan-favorite character, here's what we know about Steven's fate in The Summer I Turned Pretty books and TV show ahead of Season 3's premiere. The Summer I Turned Pretty's Season 3 trailer (located at the top of this article) gives fans a glimpse at Belly and Jeremiah's love story, college years, and wedding aspirations. It shows Belly and Conrad reuniting, with Belly's voiceover admitting that everywhere she goes, there's always a memory of him. And it also shows Jer punching his brother and confronting Belly about Conrad's feelings for her… As the sacred Jenny Han texts foretold, romance, love triangle drama, and conflicts between Belly and her boys lies ahead. And naturally, we were expecting that! What we weren't expecting, however, were brief clips that appear to show Steven dropping Taylor off, driving away, getting in a car accident in front of her, and then Taylor sobbing by the side of a hospital bed. WHAT?! Needless to say, fans were SHOOK. In a recent interview with Entertainment Weekly, Kaufman warned,'If the final season was an ice cream flavor for Steven and Taylor, it'd be Rocky Road.' So, uh, things don't sound great! Does Steven die in The Summer I Turned Pretty Season 3?! I genuinely have no idea! This is the final season of the series and Jenny Han and that cast are vaults, people! But the synopsis did tease several 'core-shaking events,' so until we learn if Steven survives his crash or not, we'll be listening to Taylor Swift's 'Out of the Woods.' Fans of The Summer I Turned Pretty book series who've read Book 3, We'll Always Have Summer, were especially shocked to see Steven's car crash and Taylor crying in the Season 3 trailer, because those scenes aren't in the text. In the books, while Steven and Taylor don't have the same epic romance they do in the series, Steven lives! Per Han, however, Season 3 twists like Steven's car crash are to be expected… When speaking with EW, Han explained, 'There are definitely changes… There are surprises. And there are things that aren't exactly like the books.' Even if Steven and Taylor hit a rocky road, here's hoping that Han doesn't take drastic measures and kill him off in Season 3. We can't say goodbye to another beloved character on this show! The Summer I Turned Pretty Season 3 premieres July 16 on Prime Video.

'A bit of a sixth sense': Video shows 'Bridgerton' actor stopping phone thief
'A bit of a sixth sense': Video shows 'Bridgerton' actor stopping phone thief Show Caption Hide Caption 'Bridgerton' actor fights off suspected phone thief Surveillance footage caught the moments as Genevieve Chenneour confronted a suspected thief in London. A London thief chose the wrong actor's phone to try and steal. "Bridgerton" actor Genevieve Chenneour, 27, went viral after a video captured her fight off a man who snatched her cell phone at a London cafe when she wasn't looking. Security footage shows the English performer sitting on Feb. 8 as a man grabs her device from her table while she's looking away. As he walks away, she quickly notices and does not hesitate to stop him. With the help of a bystander, Chenneour kicks and pushes the man to the ground, takes her phone back and appears to strike him with it. "I had a bit of a sixth sense that something wasn't quite right. As a woman, you have that kind of intuition," Chenneour said in an interview on the "This Morning" talk show. "I could feel people moving around me in a different way, but I only became aware of it once the incident had happened." Chenneour she believes the man had spent time picking the perfect target, which she quickly proved wasn't her. She explained that she remembers kicking him back with her leg to create distance in case he had a weapon on him. Looking back she understands that not everyone would have fought back, but said she instinctually opted to because of her experiences as a boxer and growing up with three brothers. "I thought that was a normal reaction, and then I read all the comments and realized actually a lot of people would just let them take the phone," she said. "It was just a life changing, crazy moment." Chenneour said she felt scared to leave home after incident While Chenneour managed to leave the business with her phone, she said the experience impacted her anxiety, making her more fearful to leave her home. "As a woman, we already have our wits about us around strangers and random men. So to have this happen to me while dealing with that probably base level that a lot of women have just made me quite agoraphobic," she said. She added that the experience opened up many conversations that made her more aware of how many people are afraid of being out in public. London's Metropolitan Police Service arrested an 18-year-old man who is set to be sentenced over theft and assault charges on June 17, according to BBC. Who is Genevieve Chenneour? Chenneour is 27-year-old English actor best known for her role in Netflix's "Bridgerton." In Season 3 of the hit romance show she plays Clara Livingston, a debutante at the start of the 1815 season.

She has prior experiences in dance, swimming and gymnastics and said she is a carded member of the American Boxing Association.

‘Rose Hill' Romance Series Is Becoming a Show—And Fans Can't Wait
Elsie Silver's popular Rose Hill series will make its debut on screen, Variety revealed Thursday. Amazon MGM Studios is set to develop the show and bring the best-selling author along for the ride! There isn't information on the cast and release date yet, but Silver shared the news on Instagram with her 312,000 followers writing, 'In a true 'pinch me' moment I am beyond thrilled to share that my Rose Hill series is in development for television! I am honored to be working with an incredible team at @amazonmgmstudios and @templehillent. I know that these characters are in the best hands and cannot wait to see this very special town come to life.' Silver will be the executive producer of the show, along with Temple Hill's Wyck Godfrey, Marty Bowen, and James Seidman. Annika Patton of Temple Hill will produce the show, according to Variety. The Rose Hill show's official logline is: 'Welcome to Rose Hill, a small town nestled in the Rocky Mountains, where crystal-clear lakes, iconic honky-tonks, and wide-open skies create the perfect backdrop for creativity, reinvention—and falling in love. In this warm, sexy, and heartfelt ensemble drama, both lifelong locals and big-city transplants discover that love is messiest when it's real, and family is often the one you build.' Untitled Entertainment, on behalf of Kimberly Bower at Park, Fine & Bower Literary Management, brokered the deal, according to Variety, and comes on the heels of Amazon's recent triumph with shows based on bestselling novels. The success of Amazon's 'Daisy Jones & the Six,' 'The Summer I Turned Pretty' and 'Reacher' are good omens for 'Rose Hill's' upcoming release. The Rose Hill book series is set in the picturesque, small town of Rose Hill, nestled in the Rocky Mountains. Each stand-alone novel follows different characters as they navigate the struggles, successes, and steamy love stories that Rose Hill brings. Currently, there are three books in the Rose Hill series–Wild Love (2024), Wild Eyes (2024) and Wild Side (2025)–but a fourth book, Wild Card, is expected to be released in September 2025, according to Goodreads. The series's fast popularity gained attention from readers across the country, making a strong fan base and following. According to Amazon, Wild Love and Wild Eyes both achieved Sunday Times bestseller status shortly after their releases. The first novel, Wild Love, follows Ford Grant, a billionaire seeking refuge and the chance to follow his dreams in Rose Hill. His plans go awry when parenthood and a love interest enter the mix. Silver's second novel, Wild Eyes, traces country music star Skylar Stone through her journey of heartbreak, personal growth, and new love. The most recent novel in the series, Wild Side, explores parenting and loss through the complex relationship between Tabitha and Rhys. More details are (hopefully) coming soon about the show, but in the meantime, fans can celebrate their favorite series finally coming to life… and eventually screens!
