Donald Trump can breathe a sigh of relief: Stormy Daniels, the porn star he is alleged to have had an affair with, has not entered Celebrity Big Brother in the UK.
Daniels was understood to have been the star turn in the latest season of the British reality series. However, despite reportedly flying to the UK and agreeing on a fee with the Viacom-owned broadcaster, Daniels, real name Stephanie Clifford, did not enter the Big Brother house.
According to reports, Daniels arrived for preliminary taping sessions for the show, which is produced by Endemol Shine’s Initial, but refused to enter the house after failing to agree to terms. Reports suggested that she initially had agreed a fee of close to $1M to appear on the monthlong shoot before backing out of that deal and agreeing to a lower amount of $250,000 to stay for one week.
Channel 5 declined to comment on Daniels’ non-appearance.

Peter Mullan plays a vagrant searching for his sister in a naturalistic tale that’s indebted to Ken Loach
The spirit of Ken Loach hangs over this surprisingly warm and rewardingly aware tale of homelessness at Christmas. Peter Mullan is very much in his element as the itinerant Hector with whom we travel to Glasgow for an ominous-sounding hospital appointment (“just some test results”), to Newcastle in search of his sister, and thence to London for a sojourn in the shelter that has become his regular Yuletide home. En route, he encounters kindness, aggression, bereavement and bewilderment, his desire to reconnect with his family tempered by the omnipresent suggestion that he is still running away from something – perhaps everything.
From Hardeep Singh Kohli’s bat-wielding shopkeeper to Sarah Solemani’s shelter manager, debut writer/director Jake Gavin paves Hector’s odyssey with encounters that prove kind hearts are indeed more than coronets.

It's been a good year for playwright and director Mike Bartlett. Love, Love, Love played at the Royal Court and his adaptation of Chariots Of Fire is currently at the Gielgud Theatre in the West End (to 10 Nov). This latest play, which he also directs, is something very different: Euripides's tale of a woman scorned who takes her revenge on her ex-husband in the most appalling way is one of the greatest and most enduring of Greek tragedies. Now it's reinvented for the modern age in Bartlett's new version about a 21st-century woman who is unhinged by grief when her husband, for whom she has given up everything, leaves her for another woman. The excellent Rachael Stirling is in the title role in a production for Headlong, which will be touring to major venues across the UK until December.

Hardeep Singh Kohli has been suspended from The One Show for six months after being accused of behaving inappropriately towards a female colleague. Show producers received a complaint from the woman in question two months ago after the roving reporter allegedly "pestered" her at work, according to the Sunday Mirror. It is believed that the 39-year-old was instructed to apologise to the researcher following a showdown with his bosses. A BBC spokeswoman confirmed: "The producers of The One Show received a complaint regarding Hardeep's behaviour towards a production colleague. Hardeep was reprimanded and immediately apologised.
