A free Hot Fellas Bakery pop-up from And Just Like That is coming to NYC this week
If you, too, have been hate-watching And Just Like That (the Sex and the City spinoff starring Sarah Jessica Park, Kristen Davis and Cynthia Nixon, but, annoyingly, not Kim Cattrall), these past few years, then you know of the existence of Hot Fellas Bakery, the fictional bakery opened in the Max series by Charlotte York's BFF Anthony Marentino (Mario Cantone).
Along with the usual baguettes and buns, though, Anthony's bakery also serves major cake—namely, hunky delivery men in inseams short enough to make Paul Mescal blush. And in celebration of the series' third season (which premiered on Max on Thursday, May 29), Hot Fellas Bakery is coming to life in NYC.
Open for two days only — Saturday, June 14 from 10 a.m. to 6 p.m. and Sunday, June 15 from 9 a.m. to 6 p.m. — at Librae Bakery in the East Village (35 Cooper Square), the immersive activation "transforms a fan-favorite gag into a carb-filled, cheekily branded experience," per organizers.
Wait, when did Hot Fellas start delivering cake? 😏 #LetsChatAJLT pic.twitter.com/bUQNibNiQT

Designed to mirror the Hot Fellas Bakery from the HBO series, the pop-up will include free house-baked breads and pastries and fresh coffee decked out in character-themed packaging. Outside of the complimentary snacks and sips (all available while supplies last), attendees can take home limited-edition Hot Fellas merchandise, exclusively designed by the pop-culture brand THNK1994. And the experience wouldn't be complete without the bakery's titular hunks, who will be on site for fun photo opportunities.
"One of the joys of working on 'And Just Like That…' is finding ways to bring the show's fan favorite moments into the real world," said Dana Flax, VP of Originals Marketing at HBO & Max. "Seeing fan-favorite Anthony's vision of hot bread, and even hotter men, come to life through the Hot Fellas bakery pop-up has been so much fun. It felt like a treat in more ways than one, and a natural way to give fans a taste of a story they love."
Can't make it in person to Hot Fellas this weekend? Max has also partnered with Grubhub and Seamless to deliver a supplemental stream-and-snack experience: New Yorkers can order a limited-edition Hot Fellas Bakery Bundle, which includes the same mouthwatering .

BBC EastEnders confirm change to Monday's iPlayer episode
Former commissioning executive at Channel 4, Ben Wadey, who has also previously worked as a story editor on EastEnders, is now taking over the reins of Albert Square. But as his stint as the new executive producer of Walford begins, it's been revealed there will be no usual BBC iPlayer episode dropping at 6am on Monday (June 16). In a statement, Ben has hinted that something 'big' is on the way, as EastEnders has shared that Monday's episode will air on BBC One and iPlayer at the same time (7.30pm). He teased: 'Next week marks the start of something big in Walford that we hope will get everyone talking, and it's only just the beginning.' Ben also revealed what to expect in Walford over the next few months and why fans 'don't want to miss' this summer. He added: 'We've got twists, shocks, and plenty of drama lined up for a summer you don't want to miss.' However, the change to the BBC iPlayer schedule has left some fans speculating that an EastEnders legend is about to return after four years. 📣Schedule Alert! #EastEnders, Monday 16th June, 7:30pm on @BBCOne and @BBCiPlayer. Trust us, you won't want to miss it! (There will be no 6am iPlayer drop.) It comes as @bbceastenders wrote on X: 'Schedule Alert! #EastEnders, Monday 16th June, 7:30pm on @BBCOne and @BBCiPlayer. Trust us, you won't want to miss it! (There will be no 6am iPlayer drop).' In response, someone said: 'It's Max Branning and Oscar returning this Monday 16th June 2025 at Number 14 Albert Square spoiler reveal.' Another commented: 'Please tell me Max is back!! This viewer asked: 'Max??' Last month, reports by The Sun suggested Max, played by Jake Wood, was set to return to Walford. As a TV source previously said: 'Jake's return is huge news for EastEnders fans as his character made a massive mark on the show. 'It'll raise some eyebrows after he was absent from the 40th anniversary earlier this year. 'Bosses are excited about what his character's reappearance means for spicing up the plots. 'There is plenty to go at. Max has loads of unfinished business in the Square and is set to ruffle some feathers.' EastEnders declined to comment in May.

Meanwhile, Jean Slater (Gillian Wright) is on a mission to sabotage Harvey Monroe (Ross Boatman) and Kathy Beale's (Gillian Taylforth) new business venture. The Radio Time summary adds: 'Jean takes action to right a wrong. Alfie is clearly hiding something. George gets some much-needed advice.'

EastEnders fans go wild as they 'work out' icon's soap return after 'huge clue'
Monday night is set to be a huge night in EastEnders for Ben Wadey's first episode in charge and fans have 'worked out' which huge character could be returning to the soap After Chris Clenshaw's final episode aired last night, EastEnders were left with some very exciting news. On Monday - to mark Ben Wadey's first episode, the soap will simulcast on BBC One and BBC iPlayer at 7.30pm. The last time this happened was during the 40th anniversary live week in Feburary - so fans can expect something big. But that's not all, to go alongside the announcement, EastEnders released a promo video of a door opening on the Square with the caption: "Knock Knock. Who's there?" Fans now believe there's a huge return for one character, and they think they've 'worked out' who. Along with the announcement, new Executive Producer Ben Wadey teased: 'Next week marks the start of something big in Walford that we hope will get everyone talking, and it's only just the beginning. We've got twists, shocks, and plenty of drama lined up for a summer you don't want to miss.' In the promo video, the door that opens has number 14 on it. Could this be a huge clue? Many fans seem to think so. Taking to the Instagram post, one fan questioned: "What's the 14 significance?!" One penned: "Searched who left 14 years ago and it was Jim Branning, who unfortunately cannot return. Butttttttt Tanya Branning left 14 years ago too so I think it's the return of OSCAR BRANNING," as another wrote: "Max and Oscar." Recently, pictures were released of a grown boy filming with Lauren, with many believing it was Oscar. Jake Wood has also been rumoured to make a return as the iconic, troubled Max Branning – could it be as soon as Monday? Others were certain it was Max returning, as one penned: "Max did 14 years if you minus his gap year," with a third simply writing: "Max is back!" Spoilers for Monday reveal Alfie receives a phone call from Stacey Slater - although no context was given. No EastEnders fan could ever forget the infamous affair between Max and Stacey – so could it link to this? However, other fans believe it could be the return of Zoe Slater, following Kat and Alfie's big day. It was recently reported that Michelle Ryan would be reprising her role as Zoe, and fans think now is the perfect time. "I have a feeling that this will either be a Zoe Slater return or a Max Branning return. Either way it's going to be big," wrote one, as another said: "Zoe return? Would tie in with Kat and Alfie getting married the previous day. Not sure where she's supposed to be at the moment but maybe missed her flight or something and was planning a surprise wedding appearance." "The spoilers for the 16th, says that Alfie is hiding something, and Kat & Alfie have just got married. So I guess it's Zoe returning on Monday," penned another. Many theories have been floating around about Zoe's return with some believing she could be Joel Marshall's mum. Will Max or Zoe be making their return? Or will it be someone, or something, else? Fans will have to wait until 7:30pm on Monday to find out...
