Recently Updated Shows
EastEnders
Set in the East End of London, the show focuses on the tensions between love and family with stories ranging from hard-hitting social issues, to personal, human tragedies. And there's plenty of funny moments too.
Classic characters old and new across thousands of episodes have shared a drink in The Queen Vic, shed tears of despair or joy, sat on Arthur's bench in the Square... and at some point or other they probably crossed paths with Ian Beale.
Masters of Illusion
In Masters of Illusion, the world's greatest magicians and illusionists perform magic in front of a live studio audience. There are no camera or computer tricks involved and you'll see tricks such as women turning into tigers, birds appearing from nowhere and sleight of hands in the blink of an eye! From one amazing trick to another, the performances are shown to you non-stop in a spectacular show filled with reality-twisting, mind-blowing magic.
A League of Their Own
A League of Their Own is a British sports-based comedy panel game that was first broadcast on Sky 1 on 11 March 2010. It is hosted by Gavin and Stacey star James Corden and features Andrew Flintoff and Jamie Redknapp as team captains. John Bishop and Georgie Thompson were regular panellists for the first four series alongside two weekly guests. Jack Whitehall joined the cast as a regular panellist from the fifth series onwards.
