Sky Sports are set to bring back popular TV show 'Sunday Supplement'
It was revealed earlier this year that the broadcasting powerhouse would revamp the beloved weekly show, which disappeared from our screens in 2020 after an epic 20-year run.
But Sky chiefs, after much deliberation, have decided to bring it back from the dead.
And they've opted not to change the name too much, dropping the 'Sky Sports'.
It will now, according to the Daily Mail, just be called the 'Sunday Supplement'.
And it's set to be presented by the broadcaster's long-time transfer guru Dharmesh Sheth.
Sheth has well and truly earned the prestigious gig after 27 YEARS working with Sky.
And he's honoured to have been given the opportunity to host the much-loved show.
He told The Mail: "To be given the opportunity to present the show is all a bit surreal.
"And I can't wait to get started."
THIS IS A DEVELOPING STORY..

Danny Dyer reveals he ran 'stark NAKED' through a council estate while filming for the new series of Mr. Bigstuff - and locals couldn't believe their eyes
Danny Dyer has revealed he left locals wide-eyed in shock when he ran through a council estate 'stark naked' while filming Mr. Bigstuff. After the success of its first series, the second instalment of the Sky comedy-drama is set to hit our screens later this year. The show follows two estranged and rather contrasting brothers, Glen (Ryan Sampson) and Lee (Danny Dyer), as they discover that their father, who they thought was dead, is actually alive. But during filming for the show's second series, which has now finished, Danny was asked to do something not many actors have done before - run through a British council estate fully nude. He and his co-star Ryan told Amanda Holden and Jamie Theakston about the hilarious scene on Wednesday during an appearance on Heart Breakfast. Ryan explained: 'So, series two, end of the first episode, it got quite a visceral... Shall we say a full-frontal moment?', before Danny revealed: 'Nudity.' Ryan continued: 'There's a full-frontal moment, and it's in a public place as well. And I wasn't sure whether Danny would to do it or whatever, but he's completely up for it.' 'It's a scene where I'm running through a council estate, yeah, stark naked,' Dyer quipped. 'I read it, I laughed. I thought you know, "it's got to be done". The first ep is about Lee, he's been emasculated. So he's just moping about all day, so irritated. 'He needs to find his mojo, I was going to say his plums!,' the former EastEnders actor laughed. 'Anyways, so there's this amazing scene at the end where I'm sort of chasing someone down the street, and I've got a towel, and I take the towel off, and I use it as some sort of lasso. 'I mean, you're sort of reading it going, "How on Earth are we going to do this?"' Ryan went onto describe the moment Danny whipped off the towel and sprinted through the estate, with a local even spotting him as he did so. 'Like, I thought we were going to shut the road down or something. Actually, nope. It's just a real suburban street! 'So, I'm stood at the other end of the street and he's running, and there's this man on his phone. Danny is running down, and this man goes - he's outside the house - and he goes on a phone, "Sorry babe, I'm going to have to get back to you, because there's a man running down the street naked, and I'm not being funny, he looks like Mick from EastEnders".' Danny played Mick, who owned the Queen Victoria pub in the popular BBC soap, for a nine-year period beginning in 2013. Elsewhere in the interview, Danny opened up about his daughter Dani Dyer's wedding to West Ham United footballer Jarrod Bowen, calling it 'the best day of his life'. The celebrity couple tied the knot in a 'Bridgerton-themed' wedding on May 31 at the plush £500-a-night Langley Hotel in Iver, Buckinghamshire. Dani wowed on the occasion in a £10,000 off-the-shoulder dress created by the award-winning wedding dress designer Suzanne Neville. Jarrod - who wiped away tears as Danny walked his daughter towards the alter - wore a three-piece black suit for the ceremony. Danny, a lifelong Hammers supporter, has regularly gushed about the fact his daughter's seeing his favourite footballer. And he amusingly told Amanda and Jamie that on Dani's wedding day he gave her away to the 'man of his dreams'. Speaking about the wedding, he told the hosts: 'I was in pieces, darling. 'The best day of my life. Honestly, it was just so beautiful. 'I managed, you know, to give my daughter away to the man of my dreams - I don't think that's ever happened in the history of any father giving their daughter away! 'So it was the perfect day. Let me tell you that now, it was just beautiful.'

Love Island's Toni ‘is making regular contact with outside world' say fans as they spot ‘giveaway clue'
Plus the show has been plunged into a huge new fakery row HOW'S THAT? Love Island's Toni 'is making regular contact with outside world' say fans as they spot 'giveaway clue' Click to share on X/Twitter (Opens in new window) Click to share on Facebook (Opens in new window) LOVE Island's Toni "is making regular contact with outside world - and breaking a massive villa rule" say fans as they spot a "giveaway clue." It's been a dramatic week on the show, topped off with a shock recoupling that saw Toni pick Harrison, after he'd slept with Lauren.

In a jaw-dropping moment, Toni stood up during the girls' recoupling and dumped loyal Cach, choosing Harrison instead. And now fans are convinced that they have unearthed a clue that proves Toni has been making regular contact with the outside world. An eagle-eyed fan posted on a Facebook group "Tonight, Toni had ANOTHER new set of nails, her 4th since being in there. "I thought they were not to have contact with the outside world!" Love Island fans flocked to comment on the post and one replied: "Omg I'm so glad someone else brought this up.. it's been rotting my soul. "I said to my partner tonight she must have a supply of stick ons because they don't even fit the width of her nails." Another added: "Saturdays are when producers tell them what's happening and follow the nxt script to keep viewers watching." A third said: "It's not big brother where they're totally closed off from the outside world. "They have Saturdays off to do as they want. That's usually when they get their nails, hair done etc." Watch heartbreaking moment Love Island girl is left uncontrollably sobbing as boy she slept with recouples with rival Another fan questioned: "I read somewhere that on a Saturday when they don't film, they have hairdressers, nail techs etc go in. Not sure if it's right or not." Back in 2019, The Sun revealed that Love Islanders secretly leave the villa for beauty treatments – but they have to do their own waxes. Pamper sessions and hair fix-ups are performed off site and are booked in for Islanders as and when they need a freshen up. Love Islanders have also been treated to one day off every week to relax on the beach in the past - but are watched like a hawk. Meanwhile, the show has been plunged into a huge fakery row as two singles have already hooked up, in that same villa, two months ago. They were then invited back by show bosses to join the series proper as part of Casa Amor where they coupled up with other Islanders. Now back in the main villa, they have acted like strangers. In a twist of fate, on Tuesday night both of the fakers were dumped by their partners so boomeranged back to each other. 4 Love Islanders are given a Saturday night off from filming Credit: Eroteme

The Open debuts major broadcasting change with special '£300,000' feature at Royal Portrush
The Open is set to introduce a broadcasting feature unlike any other seen in golf. Golfers will tee off on Thursday to begin the 153rd edition of the oldest tournament in the sport at Royal Portrush in Northern Ireland. One of the four majors alongside The Masters, the US Open, and the PGA Championship, the historic tournament - which was first played in 1860 - offers a prize purse of £2.3million for its champion. Despite all those layers of history, there is one feature that fans have never been able to enjoy - until now. Fans watching on TV will be treated to a Spidercam positioned above the 18th green to give them an aerial view of the drama in the final stages on Sunday. That was first reported by The Guardian, who claim the Spidercam will be suspended using four 25-metre-high pylons to give viewers a thrilling view of the race for the Claret Jug. Golf's governing body, the R&A, were told about the plans last Friday and there were no complaints. The camera will move away to the grandstand after each player's first shot to avoid interfering with their play. The Guardian writes that the R&A are paying the £300,000 required in operational costs after 12 months of planning with European Tour Productions and IMG. Footage will be made available to the R&A's broadcaster partners including Sky Sports and NBC. 'It's not often The Open is the first to do something, as usually innovations are made by the Tours before being introduced by the Majors, so this is really exciting,' said Paul Sutcliffe, the R&A's head of broadcasting and media rights. 'Portrush is one of the few venues without a clubhouse on the 18th green so that gave us a unique opportunity. 'With more space around the green we have been able to install technology. 'There will be some wires around the green, but the camera will retract to the grandstand before each player's second shot so we're confident there will be no interference. '2019 was one of the iconic Opens with the emotion of Shane Lowry winning at Portrush and Spidercam will enable viewers to walk with the 2025 champion up the 18th. 'It's the greatest walk in golf and should be very special.' The Spidercam is unlikely to become a fixture at golf events due to the cost, but could be deployed at Royal Birkdale next year for The Open, depending on the outcome of forthcoming discussions.
