It’s about bloody time our Antipodean cousins got in on the act. This week, Neighbours had a tragedy. Now, we’re not talking about the day Joe Mangel’s wife died, nor even Helen Daniels death. A big proper Brookside-style event.
Quite often, just to shake up the interest, a soap with have something so utterly awful happen to the cast that they either get the sympathy viewers coming to them or, indeed, stay unpopular because nobody was watching in the first place.
Like Emmerdale Farm’s plane disaster, and the mass murderers of Corrie,
the folks on Neighbours have had a rough old time in an aeroplane. An aeroplane that crashed. Into the sea. With half of the cast on board. Brilliant.

Celebrity Big Brother voters will tonight boot either Rula Lenska, Traci Bingham or Maggot out of the Celebrity Big Brother house. It's just a shame they can't get rid of all three.
In the immediate aftermath of George and Preston having their nominations secretly broadcast to the Celebrity Big Brother housemates, Rula, Traci and Maggot displayed more disgracefully needy pathetic behaviour than our stomachs could bear. And - worse - they also indirectly made us stay up most of the night watching Celebrity Big Brother, which put us in a right mardy mood yesterday. As far as we can tell, they all get paid regardless of how long they stay on Celebrity Big Brother. What's the big fuss about going home early?
But which of the three will get the Celebrity Big Brother shove tonight? We've got the Celebrity Big Brother eviction betting odds right here, and - although it doesn't look too great for Rula - it could easily go either way.

Celebrity Big Brother has chewed up and spat out the second housemate of the series. It looks like the public didn't like Faria Alam as much as Dennis Rodman or Pete Burns.
But no sooner than Faria had taken her racially dubious views away, never to be seen again, the remaining Celebrity Big Brother housemates were treated to an extra specially cruel prank.
For discussing nominations and breaking Celebrity Big Brother rules, George and Preston had to nominate three Celebrity Big Brother housemates in front of everyone else. While they were drunk. So Traci Bingham, Rula Lenska and Maggot will be the next Celebrity Big Brother housemates to face the public vote.
Tomorrow we'll bring you the Celebrity Big Brother eviction betting odds for Rula, Maggot and Traci - but for now, who will go on to win Celebrity Big Brother? We've got the latest Celebrity Big Brother betting odds right here, with help from SportingOdds.com...

It's time for our second look of the week at the betting odds of the windmilling, bruised arses of the Dancing On Ice contestants. Who will win, who will lose and who will badly injure themselves?
Dancing On Ice is shaping up to be the missing link between Strictly Come Dancing and Celebrity Wrestling. Girls like Dancing On Ice because of the delicate grace and panache of the routines, and boys like Dancing On Ice because a potentially gory blade/finger injury seems just a matter of time away.
Yesterday we looked at the betting odds of half of the Dancing On Ice contestants, and today we're going to look at the second half - the half that you've actually heard of. We spoil you, you know.
So here's part two of our Dancing On Ice betting odds to win the series, with help from SportingOdds.com...

The second Celebrity Big Brother eviction takes place tonight, and - whatever the result - Celebrity Big Brother will end up losing a goldmine of awkward entertainment in one way or another.
Yesterday it was announced that Pete Burns, Dennis Rodman and Faria Alam were all up for tonight's Celebrity Big Brother eviction. And that means you only have today to place a bet on your Celebrity Big Brother evictee of choice. And there's good news - although anyone betting on Jodie Marsh to go last time will have had to remortgage their house to make any money from her rubbish betting odds, there's no clear favourite to be evicted from the Celebrity Big Brother house tonight. It's more of a risk, but you've also got more to gain.
So here are Wednesday's Celebrity Big Brother betting odds for eviction, with help from SportingOdds.com...
We're stunned and slack-jawed. For once, TV has thrown a curve ball. Dr Gunther Von Hagens starred in his latest penny peep show - Autopsy; Life Or Death, cutting up old people on TV. Of course, he’s notoriously done this before, but boy, this was compelling viewing at its best.
Firstly, Dr Von Hagens is pure villain in appearance, resembling - as he does - the baddie Nazi guy from the Indiana Jones flick. In a TV world where most doctors look like Dr Legg from Eastenders or - worse still - perverts, Gunther is all blue cape and black fedora.

This weekend saw the start of Dancing On Ice, or as we prefer to call it Celebrity Frozen Air Snatch Leg Wobble Head Crack Time. And poor little rich girl Tamara Beckwith is already out.
There was us thinking that Tamara would be brilliant at Dancing On Ice because, well, she's got a bit of cash. But we were wrong! Tamara was rubbish at Dancing On Ice. By leaving the competition first, Tamara has actually become the Addictiv Ladies of Dancing On Ice. Who are Addictiv Ladies? Exactly.
So the big question is - now we've seen them all dance, who's going to win Dancing On Ice? Admit it, you'd like to place a bet on the outcome, and you've come to exactly the right place. Over the next couple of days, we'll be giving you the very latest Dancing On Ice betting odds, with help from SportingOdds.com. Ready?

The Celebrity Big Brother house has spoken - and in between making ginger women wear pants and pointing cameras Chantelle's arse, it has announced that Pete, Faria and Dennis are up for eviction.

We'll deal with the Celebrity Big Brother eviction odds another time - right now we're going to look at the remaining housemates' betting odds to win Celebrity Big Brother, with help from SportingOdds.com...
