ITV star Martin Lewis makes his acting debut as beloved BBC comedy returns tonight
Motherland star Diane Morgan returns tonight as her alter-ego Mandy Carter, in hilarious 15-minute comedy shorts about a woman who just can't hold down a job - however, there's one particular guest star who fans may be surprised to see. Tonight's (Monday 21 July) series four debut will see ITV star Martin Lewis make his acting debut in the BBC comedy, which sees Diane look for a new career. Back at the employment centre, Mandy confesses she only managed to last 40 minutes in her latest gig as a dog food taster, but she did walk off with some (stolen) freebies. It's one sacking too many, so Mandy is put on a 'restart scheme' to get her back to work, which involves a cringey meeting in a town hall. Everyone says her image is part of the problem, so poor Mandy tries to shop for a new look, but the staff don't even want her in the shop. Later, minding the desk at her friend's nail salon, Mandy runs into her high school nemesis. Look out for guest stars including ex- EastEnder Cheryl Fergison, Car Share's Sian Gibson and even money saver Martin Lewis! Mandy airs tonight at 10pm on BBC Two. The best of the rest Female Fishermen: Beyond the Buoys When it comes to male-dominated careers, fishing has to be near the top of the list – of the 10,000 fishermen currently working in Britain, only 1% of them are female. But the tide is turning. An increasing number of young women are discovering this profession, and many believe female recruits could revitalise a flailing industry. Brooke is only 20 years old, and enjoys going out on the boat, even though she's not a morning person. Alongside her work as a nail technician, she also makes a living hauling in shellfish off the Isle of Skye, and has been nominated for a prestigious industry award. Over on the West Highlands, we meet Erin, who spends a fortnight at a time battling the dangerous conditions of the North Atlantic to bring home delicious prawns. She admits that it can be tough sharing cabins with men and coping with rough seas, but she loves seeing the world from the water. Meanwhile, Emma skippers her own creel boat after following in her father's footsteps. She has proved herself (winning the same award Brooke is nominated for), but her proud dad admits that women face significant prejudice in the industry, with many fishermen not ready to accept this could be a woman's world. Brooke faced similar attitudes, but was determined to prove her doubters wrong. Erin reflects on the declining numbers of young people going into the business, and explains people need to accept women if they want fishing to thrive in the UK. Female Fisherman: Beyond the Buoys airs at 7pm tonight on BBC One. Human So many natural history programmes give us insights into other species, but this landmark series reveals the fascinating secrets of our own. Incredible advances in DNA mean that we now understand that all humans alive today who do not have African origins, descend from a small group of Homo sapiens, who migrated to the Middle East. They were the first group to leave Africa, and proved incredibly successful in their quest for survival. Paleoanthropologist Ella Al-Shamahi explains how these humans managed to travel to Sri Lanka and make a home in the inhospitable rainforests there, hunting monkeys with hastily fashioned bone arrowheads. Ella also visits the Indonesian Island of Flores to introduce us to a species of human affectionately known as the 'hobbits', because of their likeness to the petite heroes of Lord of the Rings. How did this small but mighty species evolve and why did it fail to survive? Human airs at 9pm tonight on BBC Two. Emmerdale Mack is stunned when Pollard lets the cat out of the bag about Charity's surrogacy offer. After a blazing row with Charity, Mack gives her an ultimatum. Meanwhile, Jacob can't believe his granddad has abused his trust, but Pollard is unrepentant. Liam goes back to Owen's house. When he doesn't answer the door, Liam calls the police, who find Owen dead. DS Walsh finds the planted 'suicide note', and John feels like his awful plan is working.

Rutgers Swimmer Brooke Thompson Named SHI Brand Ambassador
SOMERSET, N.J.--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- SHI International, one of the world's leading IT solutions providers, named Rutgers University swimmer Brooke Thompson as its newest official brand ambassador. Thompson will help represent the SHI brand while she prepares to compete in the 2025 Deaflympics in Tokyo this November. Thompson, a rising junior at Rutgers University, holds the USA Deaf Swimming Record in the 50-meter freestyle (23.53), which she set at the 2025 Big Ten Championships. The Bloomfield Hills, Michigan, native also captured the ECAC 200 Medley Relay Championship in March. Born completely deaf, Thompson is an advocate for adaptive technology and workplace inclusion for individuals with disabilities. She received her first cochlear implant at age 1 and her second at 4. Thompson joins LPGA Tour golfers Jennifer Kupcho, Gurleen Kaur, and Allisen Corpuz, as well as North Carolina Courage and U.S. Women's National Team goalkeeper Casey Murphy, on the company's team of brand ambassadors. 'Brooke embodies the qualities we value most at SHI: dedication, perseverance, and a commitment to helping others succeed,' said Ed McNamara, Senior Director of Communications at SHI. 'Her athletic achievements are remarkable, but what truly sets Brooke apart is her willingness to share her story, answer every question and advocate for greater awareness of adaptive technologies that can help level the playing field. We're thankful that Brooke is joining the SHI brand and look forward to supporting her journey to Tokyo and beyond.' Thompson discovered her passion for swimming after her parents enrolled her in lessons for safety reasons. While the Thompson family enjoyed Michigan's abundance of lakes and summertime water sports, swimming can pose a unique set of challenges for beginners with cochlear implants. Concerned that it may be difficult to communicate with Brooke during a potential emergency, her parents encouraged her to become the best possible swimmer in the water. She has since won 11 medals in two World Deaf Swimming Championships and won five gold medals and three bronze medals in the 2022 Deaflympics in Brazil. 'Swimming has given me opportunities I never imagined, from competing at the highest level to connecting with the deaf community worldwide,' Thompson said. 'Partnering with SHI feels natural because they understand that success comes from hard work, collaboration and a culture that ensures all people have the tools they need to succeed or the ability to request them. I'm eager to represent SHI while showing that with the right technologies and mindset, barriers can become steppingstones.' Thompson, who is majoring in business leadership and management, first told her story to SHI customers, partners, and employees at an SHI End User Computing Summit in 2024. Addressing a 300-preson audience responsible for supporting tens of thousands of end-users around the globe, Thompson raised awareness about the importance of ensuring businesses have both the policies and inclusive culture in place to ensure employees have – or feel free to request – whatever adaptive technologies they need. Her advocacy focuses on helping organizations understand that simple accommodations can make profound differences for employees with disabilities. As a member of the delegation the USA Deaf Sports Federation (USADF) is sending to 2025 Deaflympics in Tokyo this November, Thompson will compete against deaf and hard-of-hearing athletes from around the world, where all participants compete without hearing assistance to ensure equal competition conditions. About SHI SHI International Corp. is a $15 billion transformational technology solutions provider serving the needs of more than 15,000 corporate, enterprise, public sector and academic customer organizations around the world. It helps companies achieve business goals through the use of technologies ranging from software licensing and end user computing devices to innovative cloud and edge solutions.

Anxiety over ICE raids heat up Costa Mesa City Hall, as residents call for action
Angst over ICE activity in Costa Mesa reached a boiling point Tuesday, as locals poured into City Hall demanding support and protection for undocumented residents — a viewpoint that prompted backlash from MAGA supporters in the crowd and continually disrupted that night's City Council meeting. Dozens of people, perhaps drawn by fliers and social media posts soliciting action, sought assurances from city leaders that Costa Mesa police would not collaborate with federal immigration enforcement efforts. They asked officials to require ICE agents to unmask and identify themselves before initiating a detention and sought the city's support of legal defense funds, rapid response advocacy and mutual aid efforts. Such actions are already happening in other cities, such as Santa Ana, where officials are calling for a full withdrawal of federal agents, and Huntington Park, where local police arrested a man suspected of impersonating a border patrol agent. Costa Mesa officials last month issued a statement assuring police and city employees would neither enforce immigration laws nor investigate immigration status. Meanwhile, a new page on the city's website lists resources and local aid organizations offering local assistance. But dozens of local residents speaking during the public comments portion of Tuesday's meeting urged leaders to take steps to make it safer for Latinos, who've been noticeably absent from the public eye, to return to their normal daily routines, jobs and lives. '[Racial] profiling is so rampant and unjust, legal residents and U.S. citizens are being rounded up,' said a Costa Mesa woman, who later identified herself as 'Brooke,' one of the people who posted the fliers calling for action. 'I applaud the measures that have already been taken. But, respectfully, that's not enough,' she said. 'This is about justice, dignity and the safety of our community — please act boldly, and act now.' Many of the people addressing the council were repeatedly disrupted by chants and retorts from a group of audience members wearing 'Make America Great Again' hats and shirts bearing slogans such as 'Donald Trump was Right.' One member of that cohort was Nick Taurus, who lost a 2022 primary run for the U.S. Assembly's 40th District and is no stranger to political dustups and scuffles of all sorts. The Orange County resident praised the work of ICE agents. 'I think ICE should be allowed to act with impunity — they should be allowed to go to every Home Depot, every school, every quinceañera and build the wall and deport every single one of these guys,' he said, holding up a large American flag. 'Because they don't make our country great, they make it worse, they bring it down, they use public services and Americans are sick and tired of it.' An ongoing series of verbal volleys between the two factions caused Mayor John Stephens to repeatedly call for order. He asked uniformed Costa Mesa police officers posted inside council chambers to settle the crowd. At least twice, MAGA supporters were escorted outside City Hall for shouting over others attempting to address the council. Despite the rhetoric, numerous speakers shared their personal family histories, recalling America's Mexican repatriation, during which Mexicans in the U.S. were deported or displaced for being a perceived economic threat to white Americans, or forebears pursued and persecuted by Nazi and Soviet soldiers during World War II. 'We're in the early stages, but it could get a lot worse,' warned a Costa Mesa resident identifying himself as Jacob, who spoke about his family's imperiled escape to America. 'It's a huge thing in our history less than 100 years ago, and to play willful ignorance to it, it's disheartening. [But] you guys have the power to help your constituents out.' Many pleaded their cases with help from a translator, including Patricia Aburto Calderilla, who described ICE agents regularly posted on Costa Mesa's Bay Street. 'We're all here, because as you can see we, as everyone has said, we are terrorized,' Calderilla said. 'If you don't put a stop to this, this is going to continue. And what are students going to do? They're going to need to go back to school, and Latino parents are not going to be sending their kids back — moms are scared. You should do something.' Speaking in their own comments, some council members shared their personal viewpoints, encouraging residents to call 911 if they believe an illegal detention is taking place and sharing support for legislative efforts at the state level to enhance accountability among immigration enforcers. 'These actions are not only alarming, they raise serious questions about due process, constitutional protections and the safety of our community overall,' said Councilmember Andrea Marr. 'What is happening is not just a legal matter, it's a moral one.' Marr asked that her council colleagues consider passing a resolution in support of a bill that would require agents to provide IDs and prohibit them from wearing masks. She also requested that they consider financially contributing to local assistance organizations or partnering with a group to provide legal aid, ideas seconded by Councilwoman Arlis Reynolds and Mayor Pro Tem Manual Chavez. Councilmember Loren Gameros castigated the antics of 'fearmongers' in the audience who, before being escorted outside, attempted to dissuade others from speaking. 'Last time I checked, being undocumented wasn't a crime,' he said. 'Raising your family here is not a crime. Taking your kids to school should not be a crime. What I see happening right now creates a long-term problem. I certainly wouldn't want this to be a permanent black eye in our country. I believe it needs to stop and we need to create change.'
