To clarify, by stunts we mean simulated action requiring special skill to achieve, not publicity stunts (though there’s an article in that). At last, Den of Geek publishes an article for the people who – when watching ‘The Sontaran Experiment’ – tap their partner on the shoulder and say knowledgeably: ‘If you look carefully you can see it’s Terry Walsh’. For these people’s partners we can, alas, only offer the solace that all things must pass.
A key name associated with stunts in Doctor Who is Derek Ware, who arranged fight scenes in the very first story and later founded the Havoc stunt team who were regularly involved in the early-Seventies. Doctor Who isn’t a show heavily associated with stunts anymore, but they’re still a key part of the show. Jodie Whittaker still hurled herself into boxes and injured herself during the making of ‘Flux’. We’re...

Exclusive: Channel 4 has taken Avalon memory challenge format Can I Improve My Memory? to series and replaced presenter Michael Buerk with former The Great British Bake Off host Sandi Toksvig.
The show premiered as a 60-minute special in March 2019, with Buerk challenging celebrities Gok Wan, Joey Essex, and Valerie Singleton to study unlikely specialist subjects using memory hacks, before testing them on their new-found knowledge.
Avalon, the producer of Taskmaster and Last Week Tonight With John Oliver, will now make a four-part series for next year, with Toksvig in the driving seat and a new group of stars competing across knockout episodes to be crowned the memory champion.
Can I Improve My Memory? is executive produced by Jamie Isaacs and series produced by Alice Wheater. Tim Hancock and Sarah Lazenby commissioned the series for Channel 4.
Toksvig is growing her slate of Channel 4 shows after leaving the Bake Off tent earlier this year.

The veteran news journalist singles out the Sherlock star, along with actor Emma Thompson, for ‘political grandstanding without experience’
Michael Buerk, the veteran news journalist who reported from the world’s worst crisis zones, has attacked “infantile” celebrities who lecture the public on world issues, singling out Benedict Cumberbatch and Emma Thompson for particular criticism.
“As a superannuated war reporter myself I’m a little sniffy about celebs pratting around among the world’s victims,” wrote Buerk in a Radio Times interview he conducted with former soap star turned war reporter Ross Kemp.

Jimmy Bullard definitely doesn't want to see former campmate Gemma Collins re-entering the jungle, arguing that "she had her chance and she bottled it".
The former footballer and I'm a Celebrity star - fronting upcoming London Live sports series Jimmy Bullard Kicks Off - reacted to rumours Collins could be back on the ITV reality show by incredulously replying to Digital Spy: "No way, really? How did she get called back - she didn't last four minutes?!
"I disagree, I don't think she should be allowed back. She's had her chance and she bottled it."
Recalling the moment when the ex-towie star entered the main camp after the group was split into two, Bullard remembered: "The thing with Gemma - the camps were separated and she came into the main camp which I was in and she had a bit of a breakdown.
"So then she started crying on me of all people.

Jeremy Vine has reached the age where he needs to try new things, which is why he signed up for Strictly Come Dancing.
The Eggheads presenter was the first celebrity contestant to be announced for the show earlier this year.
"I turned 50 this year and although I'm not a natural dancer, I realised this is the time to do stuff you don't naturally want to do," he said.
"I remember I was at a wedding and there were about a hundred couples and we were all dancing in a rubbish way and then suddenly this pair of 30-somethings came on the dancefloor and did an amazing Rumba or Salsa and I thought I want to be able to do that."
Of course, it's not the first time he's danced on telly before, he once famously donned the suspenders for Children in Need.

Former MP Edwina Currie spiced up the jungle with her frank sex chat and honest camp conversations – but the 68-year-old couldn't be more happy to be back in the real world.
Sipping a Diet Coke by the pool of the plush Palazzo Versace, Edwina opens up about her experiences on I'm a Celebrity...Get Me Out of Here!:
How are you feeling, Edwina?
"Right now, I feel tired. You don't get enough sleep in there. I'm a bit spaced out, too. But I'm terribly pleased. I think it went very well. I lasted far longer than I thought I would. I was quite convinced I'd be the first out. Remember in Strictly, I was the first out? I was gutted about that. This time, I thought, 'You know what? With this crowd, I will be the first out but it will be fine.' But here I am. I survived.

Did you enjoy your jungle experience?
"If I'm being honest, I didn't enjoy every minute - but I enjoyed every other minute. If I said I enjoyed being hungry, I'd be lying. Some minutes were not fun, but the other minutes were great.

Edwina Currie is the latest campmate to leave the I'm a Celebrity...Get Me Out of Here! jungle.
She follows Tinchy Stryder and Kendra Wilkinson, who left yesterday (Friday, December 5).
When asked by Ant and Dec how she felt about leaving the camp, Edwina joked that she had been crossing her fingers as they made the announcement.
Edwina added that the jungle was "completely different" to what she expected, saying: "I thought it would be horrible and was prepared to grit my teeth and do it, but they were a terrific bunch of people.
"Physically, it was very hard - I had done a fair bit of camping but not like this."
Edwina had clashed with both Kendra Wilkinson and Melanie Sykes during her time in the jungle, claiming that Kendra was selfish after hearing her discuss with Michael Buerk what it was like to live life in front of cameras.

"I will never forget my jungle experience, but it feels fabulous to be out in the real world. It was much harder than I thought it would be - but in a weird, sadistic, masochistic way it was fun.

The pair follow actress Vicky Michelle who left the camp yesterday (December 4).
"I was shocked it was two of us," the rapper told Ant & Dec following their exit, "but I had worked out there were six of us left, you know?"
After being shown his best moments on the show, Tinchy smiled and told the hosts: "That's like special man - it brings everything back."

When he was asked just how he managed to get through the Vile Vineyard challenge, Tinchy replied that he just tried not to think about what he was doing.
"Calm, that's the word.

Sykes replied: "I understand that game and it's amazing, it's lovely, it's wicked, it's all part of the experience. But I do get jealous when people go because you must think you're going to have some lovely stuff."
But Quickenden said: "It won't be nice watching you walk across the bridges though."

We'd never want to worry Ant & Dec, but we can't keep this in any more - I'm a Celebrity... Get Me Out of Here! has a problem.

Because all of the best campmates are leaving.
We thought Jimmy Bullard might have been a fluke. A horrendous, 'wait what' moment, but a fluke all the same. For one thing, only four campmates were eligible to be voted out and all of them were big characters (except our pick for elimination, Tinchy Stryder, who presumably has a vote-happy fanbase).

Veteran broadcaster Michael Buerk managed 19 days in the jungle camp of I'm a Celebrity… Get Me Out of Here! During his stint in the reality show, we saw Buerk twerk, rap and sing - and one of the many highlights would have to be his giant cockatoo impression for a particularly barmy Dingo Dollar Challenges. Here are the 60-year-old's jungle highlights…
How does it feel to be out of the jungle?
"I'm very, very pleased to be out. You wouldn't believe the relief! It's been absolutely wonderful to see my wife and to get back to reality. You talk a lot about food in the jungle - but missing my wife, my family and news of the family was the killer for me in there. You feel very isolated in the jungle."

Michael Buerk has become the third person to be voted off I'm a Celebrity...Get Me Out of Here!
The eight campers all faced the public vote following Nadia Forde's exit on last night's (December 2) show.
The third public vote pitted him against Edwina Currie but it was the journalist who was ultimately voted off.
Asked what he thought of his experience, Michael told hosts Ant & Dec: "I thought they'd all be t***sers, and not all of them were.
"I thought the regime was hard but the people were better."
He also said that the lack of food was hard to deal with, reflecting: "It's amazing how it alters your mood. People get down when they are hungry."
Michael added that he wants Jake to win the show.

Edwina Currie and Melanie Sykes argued over the role of men after Edwina put Carl Fogarty forward for the latest trial on tonight's I'm a Celebrity... Get Me Out of Here! (December 3).
The campers were told they would have to pick another celebrity in Croc Creek to take part in the Boulder Dash challenge.
Ex-mp Edwina suggested it "sounded physical", at which point Mel volunteered. Kendra Wilkinson also offered to do it, but Vicki Michelle sided with Edwina and thought Jake Quickenden or Foggy would be best.
Mel got cross as she reminded the others: "Hang on, me and Kendra said we wouldn't mind."
"Bearing in mind we want to eat tonight..." responded Edwina.
This prompted an irritated Mel to ask Edwina if she thought she wouldn't be capable of the task, adding: "You should believe in the sisterhood. You're a strong woman."
"I don't believe in that, I believe in us all together,...

The campmates were given a break from the Bushtucker Trials as Snake Rock was transformed into the Jungle Arms pub for a festive 'Office Party'.
Michael Buerk and Melanie Sykes were given the responsibility to host the party, with each campmate receiving 50 dingo dollars to spend on drinks, chips, brownies, cashew nuts and other treats.
The duo were also given the responsibility to choose one campmate to receive an additional $50 to spend at the party.
Tinchy Stryder was selected for the special honour because he had been "quietly getting on with it", according to Michael and Melanie.
"Thank you very much. Hard work pays off," Tinchy said when he was given the prize.

The 36-year-old former footballer can be seen hitching up his swimwear - which he did with his underwear a lot during his time on the show - before waddling around and diving into the swimming pool with a massive splash.
Whitmore's laughter can be heard in the background.

Jimmy Bullard bid farewell to fellow campmates as he became the first star to be voted out of the jungle on I'm a Celebrity... Get Me Out of Here!.
The former footballer woke up bright-eyed and bushy-tailed in camp before the news of his departure was broken.
I'm a Celebrity's Jimmy Bullard interviewed: 'I can be a bit of a nightmare'
"It's a big day. Woke up lovely and fresh," he told the Bush Telegraph. "It could be my time to go - four to one shot. If you ask me who's gonna go, I haven't got a clue."
He later joked to his fellow campmates: "If I go I'm gonna slaughter you all in the press. Honestly, in there we try to get on but what a bunch of absolute wallies!"

The camp were informed that they must choose celebrities to undertake the challenge, and after much deliberation, Michael and Vicki volunteered as neither had taken part in a trial.
Carl Fogarty and Jake Quickenden had offered themselves up first, but Foggy later explained: "At the end of the day it's about a team, about feeding the whole team.
"It's not about Michael wanting to do this because he wants to do it for himself. But that's fine. I'm happy with them both going and do it today. But they'd better bring back the bacon."
"I'm sort of looking forward to it in a sadistic kind of way. Just to get it over with. Been there, done it, done that trial, get through it," Vicki joked.

Each celebrity was told that they had the opportunity to win a letter for one of their fellow campmates; to do so, they had one minute to memorise six out of eight words on a page before it went into a shredder.
Jake Quickenden won a letter for Mel Sykes, saying: "I was buzzing to win her a letter. I knew how much it would mean to her."
Elsewhere, Edwina Currie and Tinchy Stryder won each other's messages, Vicki Michelle won Michael Buerk's, Carl Fogarty won Jake's and Nadia Forde successfully got Foggy's.

Melanie Sykes and Edwina Currie contributed to tension in camp in tonight's I'm a Celebrity... Get Me Out of Here!.
Mel was missing Jimmy Bullard, who became the first celebrity to be voted off the show on Monday (December 1), as he also served as her sous chef.
As the camp were treated to an octopus dinner following Michael Buerk and Vicki Michelle's seven star win from their completion of the Deadly Dunking trial, Edwina offered her help with the cooking.
But Mel turned it down, which immediately created a bad atmosphere in Croc Creek.
Edwina and Vicki began chatting about Mel, with Vicki saying: "She doesn't like people interfering."
The former MP added: "Sometimes she's too much of a control freak."
Mel became frustrated and walked off to a secluded area on her own. But it wasn't long before Kendra Wilkinson, who was down from missing out on her letter from home,...

I'm a Celebrity... Get Me Out of Here! stars Michael Buerk and Vicki Michelle have teamed up to take on the latest Bushtucker Trial.
The Deadly Dunker saw the duo being strapped to a giant wheel and spun through a tank full of water and, of course, critters.
Watch a sneak peek at the Trial below:
Vicki had to pick up balls from the tank and pass them to Michael, who then had to throw them into a nearby net - but could he be dunked and then slam dunk?
Asked how they were feeling by Ant & Dec before the Trial began, Michael sighed: "What do you think we're feeling? We're strapped to a bloody wheel, we're about to be rotated through a pond full of evil creatures."
"When you put it like that, it all seems so silly," Dec mused.

I'm a Celebrity... Get Me Out of Here! star Michael Buerk admitted that he looked like a "complete prat" during the latest Dingo Dollar challenge.
During the task, Michael dressed up as a bright red parrot and had to step out on a highwire to press a button on a series of bird houses. Vicki Michelle then had to find the right toy birds on the ground and repeat the pattern of sounds in the correct order.
"I think the grandchildren will think I've gone completely insane," Buerk admitted in his costume. "I discovered in myself a new talent for bird calls, a skill I never knew I had."
The duo worked well together and eventually won the dollars, as Michael joked: "The idea of me dressed as a cockatoo yelling 'hanky panky' at her from 60 yards away did tickle her fancy, I think. I was relieved she did it...

Michael has been working on his masterpiece for some time and chose to unleash the greatness on his fellow campmates as they enjoyed their last supper before one of them is eliminated.
Michael was joined by Tinchy and Jake Quickenden, who sang the chorus: "Ten campmates in a jungle, eating out of tins, no plates in the jungle. Rice and beans, no steaks in the jungle. All real, no fakes in the jungle."
Michael then broke into the verses, rapping: "Michael's my name and I'm real cool, stuck in the jungle feeling a fool. Pants are red, got no bed, jungle skills never learned at school. Banged up here with the Lord of misrule, jumping up and down, heading for a fall. Jimmy's the name, footy's the game.

The former MP was sitting alone in Croc Creek as she discussed the behaviour of her fellow jungle dwellers, musing: "My body says just have a rest. So that whatever happens this afternoon, and something will happen this afternoon, I'm ok.
"Jake [Quickenden] is doing the same. He's sunbathing. I don't wanna do that."
On broadcaster Michael Buerk and actress Vicki Michelle, she continued positively: "Michael's busy. Good man. He likes to keep himself busy. Vicki's actually in better shape than she was yesterday. She's a trooper is Vicki."
Her ruminations were then disturbed by Kendra Wilkinson chatting elsewhere, who could be heard mid-conversation saying: "Anything you want, maybe a signed DVD from Giorgio, anything, I'll get it done..."

We were rooting for Jimmy Bullard in the jungle after he wormed his way into our affections with his sense of humour (who could forget his faux humping with Edwina Currie in the pool?), his seeming compassion for fellow camp-mates and his blossoming bromance with Foggy.
But all of that was scuppered for us on Saturday night's (November 29) I'm a Celebrity when the former footballer took "banter" with Jake Quickenden to an unnecessarily bitchy and unpleasant level.
The sour exchange began when Vicki mistook Jimmy for 68-year-old Michael Buerk - which, come on, is funny and something Jimmy could have easily laughed off or been self-deprecating about.
If you can't take the piss out of yourself, then frankly, how can you claim to be the best at "banter"? It's dependent on being able to send yourself up - otherwise it's just glorified bitching.

Tinchy Stryder, Melanie Sykes, Carl 'Foggy' Fogarty and Jimmy Bullard are the first celebrities up for elimination on I'm a Celebrity...Get Me Out of Here!, after losing the tribal Terror Tomb challenge.
In the trial, the Galah and Wombat tribes were faced with identical tombs in two different locations. Each of the celebrities had to spend 15 minutes inside coffins within the tomb, with the aim of sticking it out longer than a member of the opposite team.
After the 15 minutes were up, a key dropped into each of the coffins, and the celebs would race to find a hidden lock which would then turn on a light and they would be released.
Michael Buerk, Vicki Michelle, Kendra Wilkinson, Nadia Forde, Edwina Currie and Jake Quickenden won the majority of three rounds and were awarded immunity.

The show featured presenters Ant and Dec announcing to the Wombat and Galah teams that there had been no public vote for the trial and that each team had 15 seconds to decide who they wanted to represent them in the Down the Chain trial. At stake was a proper dinner for the winning team.
The Wombats all agreed that Foggy should represent them, with Melanie Sykes saying: "Foggy is gutted about the challenge yesterday. He's frustrated. He's gone over and over it overnight. He's going to want to have a good positive experience and eradicate thoughts of that."
The Galahs were more divided on their choice, as Jake volunteered for the trial but Michael Buerk suggested that it should be done by somebody who had not yet done a trial.

Jimmy Bullard and Jake Quickenden's jungle banter appeared to get out of hand in tonight's (November 29) I'm a Celebrity...Get Me Out of Here! episode.
The ex-footballer seemed to criticise the former X Factor star's singing, but Jake appeared unsure if Jimmy was being serious or not.
The row began when Jake told Jimmy that Vicki Michelle had mistaken the footballer for Michael Buerk.
Jimmy replied: "Alright, f**king He-Man. Just 'cos you're all f**king muscles."
Jake continued to press Jimmy's buttons, saying: "You bite so quick. You don't come back with anything. You get nasty. You get nasty, don't you? It don't matter. I understand, it's fine."
Jimmy replied: "You're calling me a 68-year-old man. That's nasty in a way. It ain't affecting me. You're out of your league son, you're out of your depth. It's embarrassing."
Jake hit back by declaring: "Stop now. You're embarrassing yourself.

Each of the celebrities had to sit in a box. Behind them were two clocks, and they had to stop the hand from hitting a mark at the top; if the clock hand reached the top, they would be out of the game.

Michael Buerk was perhaps the surprise camp mate on this year's I'm a Celebrity. Rather than sit solemnly in the jungle, the 68-year-old newsreader has got himself right involved, with a twerking lesson and even learning how to rap... But what does his dear wife Christine think of it all?

Do you think Michael is enjoying his jungle experience?

"I'm sure he's enjoying parts of it. And I'm sure he's hating other parts. I'm sure he's finding it really difficult not to have anything to read or write in there. That will be the worst thing for him. And the boredom."
Did you want Michael to do I'm a Celebrity?
"I left the decision completely to Michael. He got involved with MasterChef a few years ago,...

Jake Quickenden was told off by I'm a Celebrity producers for enjoying a sneaky leak around the back of the bushes in the jungle on tonight's I'm a Celebrity... Get Me Out of Here.
The star admitted: "I was washing my clothes so I went round the corner and had a wee because I was desperate, when a guy's got to go, he has to go.
"I wee in my garden and my mum wonders why all the plants are dead."
Michael Buerk left the Bush Telegraph and re-entered the camp wiggling his hips while reading from a laminated piece of paper saying that celebrities were strictly prohibited from urinating in camp boundaries.
It also warned that human urine attracts wildlife including snakes, so it's imperative that only the dunny is used for human waste.
Jake immediately owned up to his indiscretion and apologised to his fellow camp mates. Feeling guilty,...

During a discussion about life regrets, the former 999 presenter said that one of his biggest mistakes in life was not pushing Jimmy Savile overboard when he had the chance.
I'm a Celebrity's Michael Buerk learns to rap: Is he the new Jay Z?
Buerk told his campmates that he had never liked Savile, even before recent revelations about the former Radio 1 DJ's sex abuse offences.
"[I regret] standing at the rail of the QE2 with Jimmy Savile, who I personally disliked intensely before everyone else did," said the newsreader.
"My regret is not tipping him over the rail while I had the chance."
I'm a Celebrity continues tonight (November 27) at 9pm on ITV.

I'm a Celebrity... Get Me Out of Here! was forced to cut a challenge short in tonight's episode after a huge storm erupted over camp.
The extreme weather called an end to the Shed of Dread task, which saw Jimmy Bullard and Carl Fogarty being taken in a helicopter to a dark shed full of jungle critters.
The duo were informed that they would have to stay in the shed for 12 hours, but their fellow celebrities were able to cut that time down by sacrificing items that were important to them.
Jake Quickenden gave up his fan, Melanie Sykes handed over her tweezer, Michael Buerk reluctantly sacrificed his chair and Edwina Currie and Vicki Michelle agreed to do without makeup.
That reduced Bullard and Fogarty's time in the shed from 12 to six hours, but the celebrities were then told they could reduce the time to just three hours if they sacrificed postcards from home.

I'm a Celebrity... Get Me Out of Here! star Michael Buerk finally began taking lessons in rap from Tinchy Stryder in tonight's show.
The broadcaster - who had requested tutoring in a previous episode - made the most of his burgeoning bromance with the musician to learn a new skill.
"I know zero about rap," Michael admitted. "I thought it was done by sinister looking men in hoods and shades. I don't really like the sound of it, don't understand it, there is no tune to it - is it all about style?"
Tinchy explained that there is a rhythm, tune and flow to rap and advised Michael to say a line about himself to a beat, prompting him to come up with: "I'm Michael and I'm real cool, stuck in the jungle, feel a real fool. My pants are red and I have no bed."

Michael Buerk opened up about his late bigamist father on tonight's I'm a Celebrity.
Speaking about his biggest regret in life, he told fellow camp-mates: "I've only got one regret in my life and it was losing my mother before I was old enough to have a grown-up conversation with her.
"My father was a bigamist and I didn't really know very much about him and if she had lived just a few more years I would have learned a great deal more."
The broadcaster also informed Melanie Sykes that he was just 16 when his dad died, and wasn't at a mature enough stage to talk properly about him with her.
He explained: "It was a complicated situation really, he was a Canadian army officer during the Second World War and he met my mother towards the end of the war and they obviously had a big thing and he...

The dust has yet to settle after Kendra Wilkinson and Edwina Currie's explosive fight in the jungle earlier this week.
Michael Buerk, who had been chatting to Wilkinson before the argument with the ex-mp began, wondered whether the former's "ballistic" reaction was "because Edwina is not particularly tactful or because Kendra is good at reality TV".
Speaking to actress Vicki Michelle about the row, Edwina said: "It was unbelievable, she has a mouth on her like a sewer!"
The pair fell out after Edwina took offence to Kendra's statement: "You should never live your life for other people, ever."
The Us reality TV star had been talking about sharing her life on camera, when Edwina interrupted: "Did I hear you say, 'You should never live your life for other people, ever?' Count me out. I don't agree with you."
It soon spiralled into a full-blown spat, during...

ITV producers have tightened security surrounding the camp of I'm a Celebrity... Get Me Out of Here following reports of two fatal incidents nearby.
The body of a 52-year-old mother-of-two was found in the street of Murwillumbah, a small town just ten minutes away from where the celebrities are residing in the jungle.
A New South Wales police spokesman has confirmed that the case is ongoing and has urged witnesses who saw victim Lynette Jones near the Imperial Hotel on Main St an hour before her death to contact police.
Detective Sergeant Laurie Moroney told The Mirror:"We're looking for witnesses who know the route she may have taken from the hotel."
Meanwhile, the body of Mark Spencer was discovered an hour away from the jungle in Coomera last month, with police still searching Queensland's Gold Coast for the murder suspect.
