Molly-Mae Hague reacts to Love Island audition tape and first time meeting Tommy
Molly-Mae Hague has reacted to her Love Island audition tape and first time meeting Tommy Fury. The mum-of-one shared a vlog to her popular YouTube channel where she shared a video of herself watching her audition tape in a bid to enter the villa.
She starts the clip by laughing at the camera while her audition tape plays in the background. The previous Molly-Mae in the tape talks about how a ex told her she was "too much to handle" before they split up but then Molly looks at the camera in her vlog and says "what am I actually talking about" as it seems she's struggling to recall the moment.
Molly previously said that she gave herself "the ick" watching her audition tape back. She explained to her fans: "Basically Fran [her manager] got an email a few weeks ago saying that they were doing a 10 years of Love Island programme to celebrate the 10-year anniversary.
"They said that my audition tape is going to be shown and Fran was like 'Is there anyway we could see the audition tape before it gets put on TV considering Molly hasn't seen this in coming up to seven years?'
"I've never actually seen it, because it obviously it was filmed and I never got to see it, I actually forgot that even one existed to be honest.
"And it's about to be on TV in a minute and I have literally zero idea what to expect, because I've never seen it before and I'm actually really scared as to what I'm going to say, what I'm going to ever look like, or sound like.
"Maybe they might not show mine, but I think they will because Fran got told they definitely are going to and they said we can't show you a sneak peek."
The vlog then skips to Tommy, who hasn't been on her YouTube channel for months due to their split. However it looks like he's back as they pair recently confirmed that they are once again an item.
Molly shows fans that she's watching old episodes of Love Island which includes the moment when Tommy and Molly first met. Tommy giggles as he says "the wanderer returns" before Molly explains they are reminiscing on how they met.
Tommy says: "Do you know what it is? Genuinely, I miss that place. I do miss it because you had no worries in there. You didn't have a phone, which you know I love. You had your own little clique in there, you got on with people, it was good wasn't it."
Molly and Tommy recently confirmed that they are back together after taking months apart due to his struggles with alcohol. The iconic couple split up last year as a result of the boxer's issues with alcohol which was revealed on Molly's documentary Molly-Mae: Behind It All.
However, it seems that the couple couldn't stay apart and are now giving things another go. The two of them share their daughter Bambi together.
Love Island returns Monday, June 9 at 9pm on ITV2 and ITVX.

Abandoned UK zoo left eerily quiet with horrifying animal corpses left behind
An explorer who documents his discoveries online has revealed the moment he stepped inside an abandoned UK zoo that has been closed since 2022 - with some surprising discoveries along the way An urban explorer has shared footage of his eerie venture into an abandoned zoo where he found snake skins, animal moults and breeding tanks left behind. Daniel Sims, who goes by the name Bearded Reality online, visited the former Rutland Sanctuary Zoo in Oakham, East Midlands, earlier this month. The zoo has been closed since late 2022 due to rising costs, but Daniel found the site left in "amazing condition". The 36-year-old, from Huddersfield, found the zoo looking practically ready to re-open and host more animals, despite not being open for three years. "The whole site has everything left behind - apart from the animals, of course," Daniel, who shared the footage on TikTok and YouTube, said. "It is still in amazing condition, so it's surprising it just sat left and wasted. The site itself in areas looks a little run-down but has suffered very little damage, so it could easily re-open as another mini zoo or attraction with very little effort. "You can tell the previous owners put a lot of their heart and soul into this project, so it's a shame to see it like this. The rooms in the back were very interesting with all the incubators and breeding tanks left untouched from when the place closed, as well as notes of what animals were held here. "I was super surprised and pleased that all the tanks remained intact and not smashed, as I have been to similar places and seen this and reckon this is because of the place's location and the fact the area has a groundskeeper, which is good.' Inside, Daniel made discoveries including a long snakeskin, which he even touched in the YouTube video, as well as various moults from other animals. Also on the site were various cages and tanks left behind from the previous wildlife occupants. The closure of the zoo was announced on social media back in October 2022 by owners, Joanna and Jeremy. The post reads: "We are heartbroken to announce that we are having to close our doors at this time due to the energy increase crisis that has affected us in such a detrimental way. "We are forever grateful for all the support and love from all our friends, family and visitors towards each of ourselves and our charges. "Most importantly, to reassure everyone, all our animals are safe and still our highest priority to ensure they have a secure and safe full life ahead of them." While some areas of the abandoned site appeared a little worse for wear, with debris littering the ground, the explorer was stunned to find the zoo in good shape. Daniel added: "I was pleased to explore this place and get some photos before inevitably nature takes its course and the place starts to decay fully."

Does 'New Heights' glitch present an issue for NFL come Week 1?
The issue was resolved, but with the NFL and YouTube streaming the Week 1 game in Brazil between the Kansas City Chiefs and Los Angeles Chargers on Sept. 5, it begged the question: should the NFL be concerned about YouTube's capability to stream a game to a worldwide audience that will command far more than one million viewers at once? It's not an unfamiliar situation for the league. Last season, as the first-ever NFL games aired live on Netflix set for Christmas Day approached, the streaming service also faced questions about the streaming capabilities in the wake of the issues viewers experienced during the Jake Paul-Mike Tyson fight. Netflix had roughly one month to figure out the issues and largely aced the test, with hardly any complaints throughout the two games (and a Beyonce live halftime performance). YouTube does provide the NFL Sunday Ticket Package and many people watch the league through YouTubeTV. But those are premium, subscription-based services with a number of viewers the company - owned by Google - is now accustomed to. (The tech issues for Sunday Ticket during the 2023 season certainly irked fans.) The scale of the Chiefs-Chargers game will exponentially increase the viewership numbers compared to those products, especially since the game is free to watch. A spokeswoman from Google confirmed to USA TODAY Sports that it was not a YouTube issue that led to the glitch. After the calamities of the Paul-Tyson fight, Netflix addressed its issues in connecting its backup servers - utilized to account for the heightened traffic on the platform - with the countless internet service providers (ISPs) throughout the world. Worth noting is that millions of people will be using YouTube simultaneously not for the purposes of watching the AFC West matchup, which could also strain streaming capacity. The NFL would not have handed out exclusive rights to YouTube - financial terms have not been disclosed but its almost certainly in the nine-figure range after NBCUniversal paid more than $100 million to air the first-ever game in Brazil in 2024 on Peacock - if the league didn't think the company could pull it off without issue. Ultimately, YouTube corrected the "New Heights" issue and fans had their "Tayvis" moment. But come Week 1, the company won't have that leeway.

What's on TV: Jodie Whittaker stars in One Night, BBC Two celebrates Roy Orbison, and more
From a new Jodie Whittaker drama to a documentary following Ozzy Osbourne's final three years to a biopic of Amanda Knox, here's what to watch on television and streaming tonight and this week. Saturday Sunday Monday Tuesday Wednesday Thursday Friday Saturday 16 August One Night ITV1/ITVX, 9.30pm First shown on Paramount+ and boxsetted tonight on ITVX, One Night is the latest Australian mystery drama to arrive in the UK. Like The Last Anniversary, The Secrets She Keeps and to a lesser extent Apples Never Fall, Emily Ballou's six-part series is a female-focused story of shared childhood trauma addressing the collision of fact and fiction, truth and perspective, both on the page and in the flesh. Jodie Whittaker stars, complete with a pretty flawless Australian accent, as Tess. Returning with her wife Vick (Kat Stewart) after 20 years in London, she discovers that her estranged childhood friend Simone (Nicole da Silva) has anonymously published her debut novel, drawing upon a profoundly distressing experience they endured as teenagers. The precise nature of that experience is teased out through flashbacks, but its impact is apparent in both women's struggles with drinking, along with Simone's anger issues, Tess's tattoos and problems with body image. Simone's dementia-stricken father (William Zappa) and their rock-solid mutual friend Hat (Yael Stone) will also doubtless have roles to play, while the enduring presence of the perpetrators acts as a constant, hovering threat to everyone still reckoning with the fallout, two decades on. Athletics: Diamond League Silesia BBC Two/iPlayer, 3pm The build-up to Tokyo's World Championships continues with an event that has a knack for featuring broken world records, ensuring it attracts a high-calibre line-up of athletes. Watch out for the remarkable middle-distance runner Faith Kipyegon and a rerun of the Olympic 100m final between Noah Lyles and Kishane Thompson. 24 Hours: the Japanese Surrender Channel 4, 8.10pm Not even nuclear bombs guaranteed a Japanese surrender: an attempted military coup very nearly extended the conflict through a sense of honour that could have proved unassailable had Emperor Hirohito not taken matters into his own hands. Amid a wealth of documentaries around VJ Day, Rosemary Cafferkey's film is enlightening and sobering. Beck BBC Four/iPlayer, 9pm A new case brings Beck (Peter Haber) back into the fold when connections are found to a questionable online university and the Balcony Man. Andrew and Fergie: Duke and Duchess of Excess Channel 5, 9pm Always a reliable source of scuttlebutt, the Duke and Duchess of York will here have their finances raked over by the usual rogue's gallery of commentators one more time for our horrified delectation, from the gimmicky (Pitch@Palace, Budgie the Helicopter) to the grotesque (Jeffrey Epstein). Roy Orbison Night BBC Two/iPlayer, 9.10pm Roy Orbison's unparalleled way with a sad song was underpinned by real-life tragedy; tonight's themed night demonstrates both, starting with archive performances from the BBC at 9.10pm and a greatest hits set accompanied by famous fans (Bruce Springsteen, Tom Waits, kd lang) at 9.45pm. At 10.45pm he delivers many of the same numbers alone, before a documentary at 11.15pm pays tribute to an extraordinary life and that skyscraping voice. GT Sunday 17 August Murder Case: The Vanishing Cyclist BBC Two, 9pm; already available on iPlayer A desperately sad real-life crime story that, full of twists, turns and secrets, gets its hooks in early and never lets go. At its heart is the pain of a family who, one weekend in 2017, said goodbye to 63-year-old husband and father Tony Parsons as he set off from Fort William in Scotland to complete a 100-mile solo charity cycle ride, only for him to vanish without a trace. The story of the massive search that took place along the A82 main route near Glencoe, and the challenge of locating any missing person in the vast emptiness of the Highlands, is minutely told. The hurt and bafflement, even anger, of family and friends as the search yielded nothing and three long years went by with no new developments, is captured in interviews with family members and the police involved in the stalled investigation. Then, a single phone call changed everything. To say more might spoil what is a finely balanced story, which only gets more complex from that point onwards. Tonight's opening part takes us up to the identification of suspects; next week's conclusion heads into the courtroom for the eventful trial. Live Premier League: Manchester United v Arsenal Sky Sports Main Event, 4pm; kick-off 4.30pm Man U take on Arsenal at Old Trafford in the most eagerly anticipated clash of the Premier League's opening weekend. Arsenal manager Mikel Arteta will be praying his £64 million new striker Viktor Gyökeres gets off to a dream start. Mrs Robinson Sky Documentaries/NOW, 8pm Mary Robinson was only 46 when she was elected president of Ireland in 1990, but she already had a career in politics and the law that put her contemporaries in the shade. This new profile explains, in her own words, how she got there and how she went on to become one of the world's best-known advocates for justice, equality and human rights. Ridley ITV1/ITVX, 8pm The realisation that a body found in the woods is that of a woman who went missing six years earlier forces consultant detective Alex Ridley (Adrian Dunbar) back in touch with Jean Dixon (Elizabeth Berrington), the disgraced former cop who caused him so much strife before. Aurora Orchestra Plays Shostakovich's Fifth BBC Four/iPlayer, 8pm It's a major feat for any orchestra to play a symphony from memory, but it's one the Aurora Orchestra, under conductor Nicholas Collon, perform regularly at the Proms. This time, to mark the 50th anniversary of composer Dmitri Shostakovich's death, they take on his Fifth Symphony. The Narrow Road to the Deep North BBC One, 9.20pm; already available on iPlayer The brooding adaptation of Richard Flanagan's Booker-winning novel reaches a powerful conclusion as Dorrigo (Jacob Elordi/Ciarán Hinds) fulfils the promise he made in Burma, flitting between past and present, love and loss, and the ghost of what might have been. GO Monday 18 August Ozzy Osbourne: Coming Home BBC One/iPlayer, 9pm It has been just over a month since Ozzy Osbourne performed a heroic last gig with Black Sabbath in Birmingham. The concert was billed as a homecoming for the Brummie-born Osbourne. But it was also a farewell. The frail singer, no longer able to walk due to Parkinson's disease, performed while sitting down on a throne. Two weeks later, he died from a heart attack. This intimate fly-on-the-wall documentary follows the final three years of Osbourne's life. It was originally commissioned by the BBC as Home to Roost, a spiritual sequel to noughties reality hit The Osbournes. The 10-part series would have chronicled Ozzy and his wife Sharon's return from Los Angeles, where they had lived for 25 years, to their country house in Buckinghamshire. Coming Home has taken that footage and recut it as an hour-long tribute and portrait. It is a poignant watch. The last years of Ozzy's life were marked by his declining health, which had worsened even further after complications from a fall. His anxious children, Jack and Kelly, wonder if he has the strength to make the journey to the UK. Or indeed, to follow through on his determination to perform one last time. The Answer Run BBC One/iPlayer, 4.30pm Jason Manford returns with a second series of his zippy daytime quiz show, airing every day this week. In today's opener, contestants from Warrington, London and North Bangor test their wits against a series of tricky quick-fire 50/50 questions. A simple but addictive format. The Great Ticket Rip-Off: Scams & Scandals BBC Two, 7pm; already available on iPlayer Reporter Steffan Powell explores the murky world of ticket touts, who have become notorious for snapping up tickets for high-profile concerts like Oasis and reselling them at extortionate prices. As Powell learns, the sophisticated techniques touts use to bypass online queues are ruining the fun for everyone else. The Brokenwood Mysteries U&Drama, 8pm The eccentric New Zealand detective drama returns with an 11th series of cosy crime. Tonight's feature-length opener sees detective Shepherd (Neill Rea) and partner Kristin (Fern Sutherland) investigate a murder at the reunion gig of a 1980s pop band. All good fun, if a tad too mannered. Confessions of a Brain Surgeon BBC Two/iPlayer, 9pm Prestigious brain surgeon Henry Marsh is no stranger to death. Yet a recent diagnosis of advanced prostate cancer has led him to reevaluate his career through a patient's perspective. This moving documentary follows Marsh as he reflects on life, mortality and the people he couldn't save. Matthew Perry: a Hollywood Tragedy ITV1/ITVX, 9pm This sensational documentary examines the life and death of Friends star Matthew Perry, who died from a ketamine overdose in 2023. It is an acquisition from American network Peacock but features new material regarding the recent trial of Dr Salvador Plasencia, who has pleaded guilty to giving Perry ketamine. SK Tuesday 19 August Stalking Samantha Disney+ Stalking is a sinister crime with shamefully low rates of prosecution and conviction, both in the US and UK. In October 2022, social worker Samantha Stites was kidnapped in Michigan by her stalker of 11 years, Christopher Thomas; he broke into her home, restrained her and transported her to a specially built bunker nearby. Only two months previously, a court had denied Stites a restraining order against him. A remarkably composed Stites tells her story in full for the first time here, with her friends, cops and lawyers fleshing out her account with help from CCTV and police bodycam footage. Episode one builds up to the kidnapping, with Stites recounting Thomas's growing obsession with her from university onwards. Episode two covers the kidnap; Stites recalling that her first thought when finding herself at the mercy of her tormentor in a soundproofed room: 'If I'm going to get out of this, it's going to be with my mind.' This chilling, compulsive true crime story serves as another indictment of a criminal justice system failing to protect women. You'll likely binge all three episodes today. The Repair Shop BBC One/iPlayer, 8pm This soothing series leaves us all shook up tonight when a giant stuffed hound dog gifted by Colonel Tom Parker, Elvis's manager, to the UK Elvis fan club in 1972 arrives so threadbare that it presents the Teddy Bear Ladies, Julie and Amanda, with their biggest fix-up yet. Also lovingly restored are a shepherd's bag and sewing machine. The Great British Sewing Bee BBC One/iPlayer, 9pm It's kids' week, but there's precious little playtime for the seven contestants left in the sewing contest. The Pattern Challenge of making toddlers' dungarees introduces a tough new element – adaptive fashion, or clothes designed for the disabled. There's fun in the final task, when nine-year-olds model imaginative garments based on the sewers' childhood dreams. Jasper Carrott Remembers BBC Four/iPlayer, 9pm Turning 80 earlier this year hasn't dimmed the verve of Brummie funnyman Jasper Carrott, whose shows Carrott's Commercial Breakdown and The Detectives are still remembered fondly. In this charming retrospective, Carrott recounts his start in comedy, career highlights and names the celebrity whose praise meant the most to him. It's followed by an evening of repeats, including comedy special The Ones (9.30pm), stand-up compilation Back to the Front (10.10pm) and his appearance on Wogan from 1988 (11.10pm). In Flight Channel 4, 9pm; all episodes are already available online Jo (Katherine Kelly) gets a surprise when her son's former paramour, Kayla (Corinna Brown), turns up with news as the propulsive thriller continues. But Jo's determination to get her son out of jail means recklessly putting herself in peril, even following dangerous drug lord Cormac (Stuart Martin) to a rendezvous. Runs nightly until Thursday. Pompeii: Life in the City with Dan Snow Channel 5, 9pm Snow and co-presenter Kate Lister tackle Pompeii's lawlessness in the finale of this breezy docu-series. One Roman wag joked at the time, 'Going out to dinner in Pompeii without writing a will is irresponsible.' We learn how posh folk fortified their houses and of the inhumane punishments meted out to suspects. VP Wednesday 20 August The Twisted Tale of Amanda Knox Disney+ The wrongful conviction (and eventual exoneration) of American student Amanda Knox for the murder of her British friend and roommate Meredith Kercher in Perugia in 2007 has all the ingredients of a classic true-crime thriller. Crucially, the four-part miniseries has Knox on board as an executive producer. No less crucially, Kercher's family have distanced themselves from the project. The first episode whisks us through Knox's (Grace van Patten) chaotic but loving upbringing, early experiences in Italy and gradual immersion into Perugian culture, before the murder is discovered and suspicion aroused by her curious response to it, then stoked by the language barrier during police interviews. As drama, it works fitfully; if one were feeling generous, the florid narration could be put down to its callow protagonist: 'In the haze of tragedy, I was a deer in the headlights, unaware that my hunter was about to arrive.' Yet for all the careful efforts to honour her memory, Kercher still feels like a footnote and, in the absence of a showrunner with both experience of the territory and the ability to navigate it – KJ Steinberg (This is Us) is no Jeff Pope – this particular twisted tale feels distasteful and exploitative. Mystery of the Desert Kites BBC Four/iPlayer, 8pm This French-made three-part series is a lavishly photographed and intellectually engrossing affair, following the work of archaeologists as they attempt to make sense of the 'desert kites' across Saudi Arabia and Jordan: megastructures that far predate the Egyptian pyramids, the Peruvian Nazca lines and Stonehenge. George Clarke's Kitchen vs Garden Channel 4, 8pm In the second episode of the series, George Clarke and Luke Millard offer their designs to a couple in Bristol who face a choice between a lavish kitchen or a Japanese garden. Destination X BBC One/iPlayer, 9pm After a stuttering start, this appealingly bizarre contest is picking up speed as the X-bus arrives in an ancient vineyard and a walled city, with Rob Brydon on hand to offer the enticing possibility of sabotage. Continues on Thursday. Soldier: for King and Country Channel 5, 9pm Tonight's double bill of military derring-do begins with the adventures of a few of the Royal Welsh's finest: members of Charlie and Delta Companies enter the Prince of Wales competition and test their physical and mental endurance against each other, while a rugby match and vehicle maintenance offer further diverse challenges. Special Forces: Most Daring Missions follows at 10pm with an account of a perilous rescue operation in Sierra Leone. Mudtown U&Alibi/Sky/NOW, 9pm Driven by the chalk-and-cheese pairing (and shared history) of magistrate Clare Lewis (Erin Richards) and gangster Saint Pete (Tom Cullen), this dark, wryly humorous and supremely confident Newport-set crime drama follows the fallout of an arson attack implicating a friend of Clare's daughter and costing Pete the kind of money he will need to rustle up quickly or risk losing his criminal empire. GT Thursday 21 August Hostage Netflix You just know things won't go smoothly for newbie British prime minister Abigail Dalton (Suranne Jones) when she spends much of the opening scene fretting about the risk of, one day, having to choose between politics and family. You don't have to be a genius, either, to suspect that if a serving British prime minister's angelic doctor husband (Ashley Thomas) heads off to a war zone to dispense vaccines to sick children, without an armed security detail in tow, it's unlikely to have a good outcome. But if you can hold your disbelief at bay (and plenty more will test it as the story unfolds), there's a great deal to enjoy in this fast-moving five-part thriller. Especially the entertaining swordplay between Dalton and her devious French opposite number Vivienne Toussaint (Julie Delpy), who not only holds the key to most of Dalton's problems but isn't afraid to use that power to leverage major political gains for her election campaign back home. Lucian Msamati and Jehnny Beth are also superb in support as the two prime ministers' chief advisors, constantly checking phones and weighing the odds, desperately trying to avert all the other political disasters hurtling their way. Tom Kerridge Cooks Spain ITV1/ITVX, 8.30pm The TV chef is in Extremadura where, at the scenic Lake Orellana reservoir, he learns how to catch the ingredients for a crayfish cocktail. From there it's on to melons in Murcia, where he joins in at the annual piel de sapo harvest. Football's Financial Shame: The Story of the V11 BBC Two/iPlayer, 9pm An exposé of the 'biggest scandal in the history of the Premier League'. Richard Milway's documentary uncovers what's alleged to be one of elite football's most closely guarded secrets, as 11 former Premier League stars claim they lost millions to a culture of financial exploitation and abuse. Ben Fogle: New Lives in the Wild Channel 5, 9pm A particularly charming edition gets to the heart of why some seek solitude and alternative ways of living. Fogle is in Japan to meet 57-year-old Rupert, whose search for a simpler lifestyle led him to the southern island of Kyushu and the hardworking life of a traditional rice farmer. Talking Pictures BBC Four/iPlayer, 9.35pm Ahead of tonight's screening of The Silence of the Lambs, at 10.20pm, Celia Imrie rummages through the archives to find out why Jonathan Demme's 1991 crime-chiller exerts such a hold on the public imagination, and how Anthony Hopkins set about becoming one of the movies' most memorable monsters, Hannibal Lecter. Death Inc Netflix A third season for this Spanish funeral-home comedy. When founder Torregrosa passes away, his second-in-command expects to take over the business until the old man's widow announces she's taking charge. With a power vacuum at the top, a rival firm spots an opportunity for expansion. GO Friday 22 August Peacemaker Sky Max/NOW, 2am/10pm You could be forgiven for feeling fatigued by the idea of yet another superhero show; we are already awash with forgettable comic book slop. The first series of DC Comics' black comedy Peacemaker, however, rivals The Boys as one of the genre's sharpest outliers. It stars John Cena as the titular Peacemaker, an absurd gun-toting anti-hero who believes that the only way to achieve peace is to kill for it. In the 2021 film The Suicide Squad, he was a cartoonish satire of American patriotism. Here, Cena makes him into something more layered and likeable; bolstered by a hilarious script from DC supremo James Gunn. The second series opens tonight with Peacemaker at a low ebb. He is grieving the death of his white supremacist father (whom he had to kill). His audition to be part of a new superhero gang doesn't go well. And his foray into a mysterious pocket dimension – introduced in Gunn's recent Superman movie – ends with a disastrously bonkers cliffhanger. We cannot reveal specifics, of course, except to say that it is one of those great emotional science fiction ideas that gives Cena the chance to show his range. Perhaps the superhero is not beaten after all. 007: Road to a Million Amazon Prime Video The jet-setting James Bond-themed reality contest returns with a more competitive format. In today's lavish opening episode, for instance, teams must compete directly against each other to retrieve a data disk in Thailand. The highlight remains host Brian Cox, who chews the scenery as the villainous Controller. Invasion Apple TV+ The first two series of this epic science fiction thriller followed humanity's desperate response to an alien invasion. Today's slow-burning third season premiere picks up two years after Earth's ostensible triumph. But has the threat gone away? Or has it merely evolved? The Truth about Jussie Smollett? Netflix In 2019, actor Jussie Smollett claimed to be the victim of a hate crime in Chicago; he was later accused of staging the attack. This documentary utilises interviews with detectives, lawyers and Smollett himself to argue that the case is more complex than it seems. Women's Rugby World Cup 2025: England v USA BBC One/iPlayer, 6.30pm; kick-off 7.30pm The Women's Rugby World Cup gets underway in Sunderland, as hosts England face the USA in the first group stage match of the tournament. England were the runners-up at the 2022 World Cup and are the favourites to win tonight at the Stadium of Light. Miriam Margolyes Discovers New Zealand BBC Two/iPlayer, 9pm Last year, Miriam Margolyes made a BBC documentary about returning to her 'second home' of Australia. In this two-part acquisition from Australian network ABC, she hops over to neighbouring New Zealand to see what all the fuss is about. Tonight, that mainly entails rugby, hobbits and the inspiring struggles of the Maori community. SK Television previewers
