BBC has announced that Waterloo Road is returning! It is part of its new commitment of having two long running drama series made across the UK.
BBC: “The revival of Waterloo Road will boost drama production skills in the North of England and help to reshape the BBC's drama slate to better reflect, represent and serve all parts of the country.”
Ironically, Waterloo Road had moved to Glasgow - before the show was axed in 2015.

Andrew Neil is pulling no punches about GB News in the Daily Mail Image
It’s a hell of a piece.

He also talked about an incident when they couldn’t interview anyone outside their building for his own show.

And what did he think of Dan Wootton, who directly followed him in the schedules? Image

As @BBCSimonMcCoy has said he is leaving BBC News, here is a thread of his best bits.

Starting with this iconic Royal Baby announcement:
When he absolutely lost it whilst reporting on this man who plays the piano to monkeys
When someone on his team put words in the autocue just to troll him

BREAKING BBC:

"The BBC is to deliver the biggest education offer in its history across more of its platforms."

From Monday January 11th, CBBC channel will feature three-hours of primary school shows to ensure that all kids can watch programming if they don't have the internet.
BBC Two will focus for secondary school content to help students learning the GCSE curriculum. There will be two hours of lessons broadcast on television per day.

All of this will sit alongside the existing BBC Bitesize content, which will be available on the Red Button.
Similar to the first lockdown last year, Bitesize Daily shows will be accompanied with special archive broadcasts of factual, drama that reflects the curriculum.

Programmes begin 9am with BBC Live Lessons and Bitesize Daily. All episodes will be on iPlayer.

If you want a distraction from the news there’s some great TV this month:

* The Great on Channel 4
* Max Richter’s Sleep on BBC Four
* Grand Designs returns this week!
* A Perfect Planet on BBC One
* The Serpent on BBC One

TV is *such* a help during these hard times.
Channel 4’s “It’s A Sin” by Russell T. Davies is out in a few weeks.

Drag Race UK is back this month too.

And there’s Celebrity: 21st Century Story, if you’ve missed it on iPlayer.

A really strong January, especially when you consider the challenges TV faced last year.
And finally ... Line of Duty returns for its much anticipated series later this Spring.

We all need a bit of a lift, so here’s my favourite BBC News / Sky News / other British news moments of 2020.
1. When a diplomatic news update on Sky News went off the rails when her son interrupted to ask for two biscuits
2. When an interview on BBC News was interrupted by Scarlett asking where she should place her unicorn [fun fact: both of these happened on the same day]
