Diocese sells Ohio care facility
YOUNGSTOWN, Ohio (WKBN) – Financial losses prompted the Catholic Diocese of Youngstown to sell a senior living care facility in North Canton. The Diocese announced Tuesday that St. Joseph Senior Living, Louisville, was sold to Lemmon-DeHoff Acquisition. The sale was final May 31. St. Joseph Living houses a 60-bed skilled nursing unit, a 49-unit assisted living facility, an 18-bed memory care unit, and a 66-unit independent facility. The decision to sell the facility was made in 2023. 'Years of significant financial losses amid the complex challenges facing standalone long-term care facilities throughout the United States, including the rising costs of providing quality care, factored into the decision to sell St. Joseph Care Center,' the Diocese wrote in a news release. Bishop David Bonnar said that the new owners will continue to endorse the Catholic identity as well as 'providing quality, compassionate care to residents.' Bonnar said that new investments in the facility will include renovations and new construction. 'The Diocese's primary concern from the moment the difficult decision was made to sell St. Joseph Care Center has been for the residents,' Bonnar said. 'Working with theconsulting firm McMahon & Associates, our Diocesan leadership executed a very thoughtful andintentional process of finding a buyer with a footprint in the local community and a respect for St. Joseph Care Center's Catholic identity, mission and tradition of quality, compassionate service.'

Shetland star admits Jamie Sives 'broke my heart' as they reunite for new Netflix drama
The Shetland star has opened up about his new Netflix role, which sees him reunite with a few of his co-stars from the Scottish detective series. Mark Bonnar, famed for his role as Duncan Hunter in the Scottish detective series Shetland, has shared insights into his latest venture with Netflix. The BBC actor is set to join forces again with several Shetland alumni, including Katie Dickie, Kelly Macdonald, and Jamie Sives, for the new crime series Department Q. The gripping Netflix series will follow the story of the talented yet imperfect DCI Carl Morck (portrayed by Matthew Goode), who finds himself relegated to the basement to establish a fresh cold case division. Set against the backdrop of Edinburgh, Bonnar takes on the character of Lord Advocate Stephen Burns. MacDonald will be seen as therapist Dr Rachel Irving, with Dickie taking on the role of police DCS Moira Jacobson, and Sives stepping into the shoes of Morck's colleague DI James Hardy. In anticipation of the Netflix series' debut, Bonnar reflected on his previous collaborations with the Department Q cast and crew, particularly highlighting an emotional moment with one of his Shetland co-stars. He commented: "I had worked with Jamie Sives before and he's a good friend, and far too modest for his own good - he's amazing. "I texted him after watching episode one to tell him how fantastic he was – he broke my heart without saying a word. "He's a class turn that boy. I know Kelly MacDonald and Kate Dickie I worked with on Shetland, but we only had a tiny bit together. "You kind of get to know everyone up here via the Scottish BAFTAs or the theatre - the Scottish Mafia is very small!" he joked. Speaking about his character, Bonnar shared: "He's wily, very self-assured and doesn't suffer fools gladly. He has made some mistakes - as you find out in the course of the show - which makes him a fascinating character. "He was great fun to play, especially as he enjoys his high status and doesn't want to give any of it away to anybody, making him a great foil for a complete maverick like Carl Morck." Department Q is the brainchild of The Queen's Gambit creator Scott Frank, who has adapted the story from a series of Danish Nordic noir crime novels by author Jussi Adler-Olsen, reports the Express. The official Netflix synopsis for Dept. Q reads: "DCI Carl Morck is a brilliant cop but a terrible colleague. His razor-sharp sarcasm has made him no friends in Edinburgh Police. "After a shooting that leaves a young PC dead, and his partner paralysed, he finds himself exiled to the basement and the sole member of Dept. Q; a newly formed cold case unit. "The department is a PR stunt, there to distract the public from the failures of an under-resourced, failing police force that is glad to see the back of him. "But more by accident than design, Carl starts to build a gang of waifs and strays who have everything to prove. "So, when the stone-cold trail of a prominent civil servant who disappeared several years ago starts to heat up, Carl is back doing what he does best - rattling cages and refusing to take no for an answer." Department Q is set to make its exclusive debut on Netflix on Thursday, 29th May.

Shetland star looks worlds away from BBC series in Netflix's new Scottish crime drama
Our community members are treated to special offers, promotions and adverts from us and our partners. You can check out at any time. More info Mark Bonnar, who plays Cassie's biological father Duncan Hunter in the first seven series of Shetland, has landed an exciting new role. The BBC star, who plays the flawed and somewhat hapless character in the Scottish crime show, is taking on an entirely new character. Bonnar looks worlds away from Shetland's Duncan Hunter in his new role as Stephen Burns in Netflix's upcoming drama Department Q, which is set in Edinburgh. The thrilling detective series follows the brilliant but flawed DCI Carl Morck, who heads up a new cold case unit. In first look images, we see Burns looking very smartly dressed whilst casting a rather concerned look at another character with their back to the camera. In Dept. Q, Stephen Burns is the Lord Advocate, which is the most senior law officer in Scotland. Speaking about his character, Bonnar explained: 'He's wily, very self-assured and doesn't suffer fools gladly. He has made some mistakes - as you find out in the course of the show - which makes him a fascinating character. 'He was great fun to play, especially as he enjoys his high status and doesn't want to give any of it away to anybody, making him a great foil for a complete maverick like Carl Morck.' Alongside Bonnar, Downton Abbey favourite Matthew Goode stars in the lead role of DCI Carl Morck. Other cast members include The Queen's Gambit star Chloe Pirrie, Jack Ryan's, Alexej Manvelov, Line of Duty's Kelly Macdonald and Call the Midwife's Leah Byrne. The official Netflix synopsis for Dept. Q reads: 'DCI Carl Morck is a brilliant cop but a terrible colleague. His razor-sharp sarcasm has made him no friends in Edinburgh Police. 'After a shooting that leaves a young PC dead, and his partner paralysed, he finds himself exiled to the basement and the sole member of Dept. Q; a newly formed cold case unit.

'So, when the stone-cold trail of a prominent civil servant who disappeared several years ago starts to heat up, Carl is back doing what he does best - rattling cages and refusing to take no for an answer.' Meanwhile, fans are hoping for a new series of Shetland in late 2025, with season 9 airing back in November 2024. The first seven series starred Douglas Henshall as DI Jimmy Pérez, while Ashley Jensen stars as DI Ruth Calder from season 8 onwards alongside Alison O'Donnell as DS Alison 'Tosh' McIntosh. Department Q will premiere exclusively on Netflix on Thursday, May 29.
