New Doctor (and new Partner) joins this week just before the show goes on it's annual break and return in September and continues up to December when it will sadly finished. Such a shame the BBC made that decision. I see the actress who played Ruhma Carter (Bharti Patel) has now turned up in EastEnders. https://uk.news.yahoo.com/doctors-spoilers-...-230442399.html

https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-england-south...kshire-64058182 A DJ who started a lockdown challenge to play every single chart record since the 1950s says he has developed a world-wide audience. Jason, also known as DJ Doveboy, said the online project had attracted listeners from 43 different countries since he began in May 2020. To date he has played his way from November 1952, when the weekly charts were first published, to 1983. He said, at times, the project had felt "like time-travelling". Each of his shows lasts just under four hours and takes listeners through one top 40 chart. "It goes really quickly. I just love the music," he said. "I am probably most fond of the 1970s because I did a lot of growing up in the 70s, but I listened to some stuff from the 50s that I'd never heard before and I loved it." After collecting for 50 years, most of the tracks come from his own extensive collection of vinyl and CDs. "I started collecting because I wanted to get every top 40 single ever," he said. "But there were times I was getting so much stuff from car boots that I was just archiving it and not listening." Jason said the marathon challenge did not initially have any listeners but some shows now attracted up to 100,000 across the globe. "I get emails from so many different countries, it's mind-blowing to think that someone in Australia is listening to me right now," he said. "People remember particular charts because it was their birthday or something. People love listening to the charts from special times in their lives." He said the project had also allowed him to relive moments from his own life - like his move from Kent to Sheffield in September 1975. "That was a landmark moment in my life, and there have been various birthdays and Christmases. It's like time-travelling," he said. Although he originally only planned to go up to 2000, he now wants to keep the show going for as long as he can - and estimates it will take another seven years to reach the present day. "I've been doing so well with 31 years, I am going to keep going so I can honestly say I have done everything," he said. "No one else has ever done anything like this, and I'm never going to do it again." https://www.mixcloud.com/retro-records/

Mike Nolan quits https://www.thesun.co.uk/tvandshowbiz/27744...rovision-group/ MUSIC fans were left reeling today after The Fizz announced the departure of Mike Nolan after 43 years. The group, which won Eurovision in 1981 as Bucks Fizz, confirmed the news on social media platform X after Mike, 69, dropped the bombshell live on BBC Radio 2. He told host Michael Ball: "I'm going to be leaving, it's for personal reasons. I have decided to go, to leave. "I've been thinking about it for a long long, long time and I just thought: 'this is the time to do it." Afterwards, alongside a smiley picture of Cheryl Baker, Mike and Jay Aston at BBC studios, the group wrote: "We can confirm, following the Michael Ball show, that Mike will be leaving the group at the end of the year. "Cheryl & Jay will be continuing as 'The Fizz' & a statement from Mike, will follow in the coming days. Thank you for your understanding." When one person commented "maybe time call it a day", the two remaining members shot back: "Absolutely not." Others were more sympathetic. One person said: "Sorry to hear this, hope he is alright and looking forward to his retirement x." Another wrote: "Very sad that he’s leaving but I’m sure we wish him all the best." A third said: "It has been a long long run. I am sad though I completely understand. Sending lots of love (since 1981)." In 1981, Cheryl, Mike, Jay and Bobby G topped the charts with Eurovision classic Making Your Mind Up and followed it with a string of hits including The Land Of Make Believe. They have sold more than 15 million records worldwide, and had three number one singles. Tragedy struck in 1984 when the group were involved in a near-fatal bus crash that left all the members seriously injured. Cheryl broke her spine in three places, Jay also had back injuries, and Mike fell into a coma and almost died while having an operation to save his life. The incident left him with impaired vision and epilepsy, prompting Cheryl to set up the charity HeadFirst, providing services for people and families rebuilding their lives after brain injuries. While technically always a functioning band, in-house disputes meant a near-constant line-up change. Cheryl, Mike and Shelley Preston - who replaced Jay in 1985 - reformed the group under The Fizz in 2004, due to a legal dispute. Jay replaced Shelley in 2009 and The Fizz continue to perform and release albums, with their most recent release - Smoke & Mirrors - reaching number 29 in the UK album chart. Like many acts in the Eighties, huge hits did not necessarily mean big bucks. Cheryl, 70, told us last year: “We were given five per cent of a 90 per cent of the sales, because they took off ten per cent for breakages and giveaways to radio stations and record firms. “That five per cent was split four ways, so we got less than a penny for every record we sold. “I had enough to buy a semi- detached in Eltham, South East ­London, but I didn’t care. I’m not into material things. “Money gets me by, money pays for things, but that’s all.” Jay also criticised the group's poor record deal in an interview with This Is Money. She said: "Our first year's income was about £7,000 each despite having scored a couple of multi-million selling singles (we had a terrible record deal), and we walked away with just £1,600 each after doing our first tour." Cheryl did splash out on a small house for her parents, in Essex, as well as a 32ft Fairline Phantom boat, for £15,000, which she kept in ­Brighton Marina. She said: “I loved it but that was a dripping tap as far as money was concerned so I sold it.” Cheryl has had a long TV career too. She went on to present a cookery show, Eggs And Baker in 1988, and front hit kids’ show Record Breakers for 11 years, quitting Bucks Fizz in 1993, when her twins were born. LEGAL FIGHT In 2004, with an Eighties revival sweeping the nation, Cheryl reunited with former bandmates Jay and Mike to perform as The Original Bucks Fizz, sparking a legal wrangle over the name. Bobby won the case, meaning the trio could no longer use the name — nor even say they were “formerly of Bucks Fizz” — and they adopted The Fizz instead. Cheryl said: “It’s sad because we won Eurovision and we had that ­terrible crash which almost killed Mike so we had so much history in a short space of time. "We should all have the right to use the name. “Bobby doesn’t gig so it’s like he is saying, ‘I don’t want to play with this ball any more but you can’t have it’. ” Cheryl said the loss of the name cost them a host of gigs, meaning she turned to a business owner pal for work. She added: “Even if I’m broke I don’t worry about money. “If I look at the bank account and there’s nothing coming in for a while, I’ll find something to do."

Contains most of the same tracks that were on the previous NOW Rock compilation released in 2021 Now That's What I Call Rock Why not put completely different tracks on instead? The last release wasn't that long ago, i'm sure can still probably be found in HMV.
