New Dad’s Army casts are like buses: you wait ages for one to come along, and then when two turn up at once they don’t like it up ‘em. While it’s never been far from the public consciousness, the sitcom about the Home Guard of Walmington-on-Sea seems to have experienced a surge in popularity over the last few years, with repeats on BBC Two having become a Saturday night staple - only a few weeks ago, it was the programme with the highest Appreciation Index for the whole of a Saturday which included Strictly, The X Factor, I’m A Celeb and the Doctor Who finale.

That's it! We had our final episode of X Factor auditions tonight, but there was enough time to fit in 16 acts who all wanted to impress the judges. As always, though, some were better than others, so here they all are, ranked from worst to best:
16. Tori V Musekiwa
"That didn't go well, if I'm being honest with you."
15. Unit X
'Pretty Hurts'. So did this.
14. D-Tour
Get points for the most bizarre stage invasion ever, but in general a shame they didn't take a D-Tour round Wembley.
13. Chase Mystery
Is that a name or an instruction? Either way, we'd rather not, thanks.
12. Ollie Marland
The thing is we're not entirely sure we wouldn't rather listen to Shane Richie's 'I'm Your Man' and that can't be a good sign.
11. Andy Taylor
Proof that ice cream makes everything better.
10. Louel
"Have you kissed?" "... Yeah." We need to know more.

Written by Simon Carlyle, Elliot Kerrigan and Andrew Mettam, Boy Meets Girl is the first British sitcom to feature a transgender character - played by a transgender actor - in the lead.
The six-part series charts the romance between Judy (Rebecca Root) and Leo (Harry Hepple) - and the difficulties they come up against as others come to terms with their relationship.
Kristian Smith - BBC Commissioning Editor - described the show as a "heart-warming romantic comedy" that also promotes "affirming messages of humanity and acceptance."

Surprised by Peter Kay's 'Gor blimey!' Cockney accent in BBC Two's Cradle to Grave? Series creator Danny Baker says you'll get used to it.
Speaking at a press screening, Baker said that "authenticity" isn't all that important in terms of how a TV character speaks.
"It's a shock when Peter Kay don't talk like Peter Kay - and it takes a bit to get over that," he acknowledged.
"But after a while, hopefully, he's that character - that's who he is, that's how he walks, that how he talks."
Cradle to Grave is based on Baker's youth, with Kay playing the young Danny's hot-tempered father Fred.
"I grew up with Harry Corbett in Steptoe and Son, what part of London was that?" Baker asked. "James Bolam in The Likely Lads - that ain't Geordie! But that's how that character speaks."
Baker added that Bolton-born Kay worked closely...

Objective's chief on why the magician's Channel 4 special this week had to be different and the return of Peep Show
Andrew Newman, an executive producer on illusionist Derren Brown's latest Channel 4 show, in which he coaches pensioners to steal a Chapman brothers painting from an art exhibition, is no stranger to brazen stunts. Early in his TV career, Newman worked with Sacha Baron Cohen in his Ali G phase and Chris Morris on Brass Eye, so he should have a natural affinity with Brown's high concept pranks.
As chief executive of Objective, the independent producer behind Brown's TV output, Newman oversees a programming slate that mirrors his own background working on offbeat, sometimes spiky series. The likes of Peep Show, Fresh Meat and Toast of London – recommissioned for a second Channel 4 series last week – attract critical plaudits and industry awards, but not always large audiences.
