Love Is Blind UK trailer accidentally reveals major clue Bardha and Jed don't get married, fans theorise
Season two of Love Is Blind UK is in full swing, and it's almost time for the couples to say "I do" - well if they decide to, as it looks like one couple in particular won't be making things official, if the new trailer is anything to go by... At the end of episode eight, a teaser for the next two episodes were shown, and the show may have accidentally revealed that Bardha and Jed don't get married. In the clip, we see Bardha sharing her doubts with the other girls during their hen do. She says: "We did actually have an argument yesterday. Right now it does feel really uncomfortable." In the next clip, Jed reveals: "We were on two different pages. If I feel like I'm not heard, it will be a problem." The clip then skips to their wedding day with Bardha all dolled up in her lace gown complete with a long veil atop of her icy blonde locks. "Why do I need to rush into something if I don't know him enough?" she asks herself as she takes deep breaths in the mirror. But perhaps the biggest clue that they don't get married, however, is the final scene in the trailer. In the scene, one of Bardha's friends, who is wearing a burgundy gown, can be seen consoling a crying Bardha. Earlier in the clip, another bridesmaid, also wearing a burgundy gown, sobs heavily throughout the ceremony. And while we don't actually see any of Bardha and Jed's vows in the teaser, we do see a blonde bride in a veil walking back down the aisle while crying. Both Ashleigh and Bardha are blonde and have lacy dresses, however, Ash doesn't have a veil for her big day, so it's clear this is Bardha. Is it all over for these two? Love Is Blind UK season 2 is now streaming on Netflix.

Netflix Accused Of Being 'TV Tourists' Over ‘Adolescence' By Channel 4 News Boss
Channel 4 news boss Louisa Compton has accused Netflix of behaving like 'TV tourists' over the streamer's breakout hit Adolescence. During the opening debate at the Edinburgh TV Festival, Compton described Channel 4 as 'proud parents' of Adolescence because of the way in which the network blooded Adolescence co-creators Jack Thorne and Stephen Graham over many years and multiple shows. Thorne has made a number of Channel 4 shows down the years, including This is England '86 and Help, both of which Graham appeared in. More from Deadline Hayley Atwell & Rupert Everett Join Season 2 Of 'Rivals' On Disney+ BBC Three To Commission Current Affairs Docs; 'Dead Howling' Lands ANZ Release; MFF & Co Teams With Globo For Telenovelas - Global Briefs 'Misfits' Creator Howard Overman Writing 'Hit Point' For Canal+ & UKTV's U&Dave 'We've developed and nurtured the talent that has allowed Netflix to come in as TV tourists and effectively commission [Adolescence],' said Compton, who runs news, current affairs and sport for Channel 4. 'Without us that wouldn't have happened.' 'We nurture where the streamers don't,' added Compton. 'Where are the investigations on the streamers into Gaza or Trump? There's no current affairs on the streamers. Everything is retrospective. [Current affairs] is a unique thing PSBs offer.' Adolescence is Netflix's second most-watched English-language show of all time. Execs from the broadcasters have previously said that the show would have been too expensive for them to make without co-pro money. Line of Duty EP Simon Heath, who runs World Productions, said there is a risk that 'you stop making shows like Adolescence' if UK producers become too tempted to only make internationally-facing shows, which need their budgets topped up from outside the UK. 'What happens is you change the nature of the show you are trying to make with more than half an eye on the international market,' added Heath. 'The risk is that the chase for international funding fundamentally alters the kinds of stories we can tell.' World Productions recently made splashy BBC-Netflix Lockerbie drama The Bombing of Pan Am 103 but Heath said this kind of co-pro is a 'rarity.' 'More and more streamers want to pursue their own shows, they don't want to be in a co-pro situation,' he added. World Productions launched three decades ago with a remit to 'make low cost drama that gave us creative control,' according to Heath, and he said the ITV Studios-backed indie is now thinking about returning to those low-cost roots. 'But you're in a world where audiences are seeking the production value of cinemas because of what the streamers are putting out there, and that's a challenge,' he said. Locking horns over in-house Compton also locked horns with John McVay, the outgoing CEO of producer trade body Pact, about the controversial new Channel 4 in-house productions unit. McVay called the unit 'wrong' and a 'waste of time and executive attention,' as he posited: 'I'm not sure it will make the difference that Channel 4 needs.' But Compton reminded McVay Channel 4 'did not ask for it' – the unit was in fact gifted to them by the government – and she said 'everything we do is for the indie sector, and a robust and healthy Channel 4 is good for the indie sector.' The group were speaking during the opening debate at the Edinburgh TV Festival before the likes of Shonda Rhimes, Tina Fey and Graham Norton.

Prince William's mistrust of Meghan Markle is derailing peace with Prince Harry: author
Prince William's alleged reservations about Meghan Markle are the main obstacle to a reconciliation with his estranged brother, Prince Harry, a prominent royal author has claimed. The Prince of Wales, 43, has reportedly not spoken to his younger brother for over two years — and their already-damaged bond was made worse with the release of Harry and Meghan's many money-making ventures, including a tell-all book, interview and Netflix series. After the Duke and Duchess of Sussex left royal secrets spilling into the spotlight, the future king is digging in his heels, unwilling to rekindle dialogue between the two camps amid deep-rooted trust issues, according to royal commentator Ingrid Seward. Advertisement 4 Prince William's alleged reservations about Meghan Markle are the main obstacle to a reconciliation with his estranged brother, Prince Harry, according to a royal author. POOL/AFP via Getty Images 'The flea in the ointment really is very much Meghan,' Seward told Fox News. 'She's disliked intensely by a large number of the monarchists of this country. They see her as being very… damaging to the royal family.' 'I think a lot of people in America feel the same,' she added. 'They don't like that Meghan [reportedly] dissed her husband's family and dissed her own family.' Advertisement Seward, who penned 'My Mother and I,' also mentioned the 'Suits' alum's ongoing rift with her own family, including her ailing father, Thomas Markle Sr. The pair's relationship became severely strained shortly before the As Ever founder's wedding to Harry, and has only continued to sour after Markle Sr. suffered a stroke in 2022. He has yet to meet his grandchildren. 4 The Prince of Wales, 43, has reportedly not spoken to his younger brother for over two years. Getty Images 'It's just extraordinary to think that her children have not met their grandfather,' Seward told the outlet. Advertisement 'I think people in the States find that extremely odd, and [we] find it very odd here. And I think that's a real black mark against Meghan's character. I think she hasn't been able to embrace… her own family, however much she feels about them. I mean, Harry's never even met her father, which is extraordinary.' Follow The Post's royal family live blog for the latest pics, news, exclusive details and more 'There are a lot of difficult emotions [to] get over there,' she added. The royal author's insights come just days after insiders told People that William and Harry are continuing down 'separate paths.' Advertisement 4 The royal author also mentioned the 'Suits' alum's ongoing rift with her own family, including her ailing father, Thomas Markle Sr. JAKE ROSENBERG/NETFLIX 'The rift is very profound and very long-lasting,' Robert Lacey, author of 'Battle of Brothers,' told the outlet. 'It will not be changed, in my opinion, until Harry makes a move and apologizes.' The Post has reached out to Kensington Palace for comment. Sources told the outlet that Harry's calls and texts to William had gone unanswered. 4 Seward added that William has 'taken a firm stance' in keeping his distance from the Sussexes. Getty Images Seward, for her part, said that William has 'taken a firm stance' in keeping his distance from the Sussexes, however claims that Harry, 40, believes his brother had been 'unpleasant' to his wife, 44, during her time in the royal fold. 'Harry thinks that William insulted Meghan,' she said. 'I think when you have that kind of animosity, it's really hard to [get around it]. I just don't see any kind of reparation. I just don't see it at this moment.'
