Dr. Connor Rhodes is checking back into Chicago Med: Colin Donnell will return for the Season 5 premiere to wrap up his character’s storyline, TVLine has confirmed.

In April, it was announced that Donnell — along with co-star Norma Kuhling (aka Dr. Ava Bekker) — would not be returning as a series regular in the fall. However, Connor’s story was left unfinished, with little closure, at the conclusion of the Season 4 finale. In the episode, Connor began to suspect that Ava was responsible for his dad Cornelius’ death. His ex was on a totally different wavelength, though, and tried to get back together with her beau. With Cornelius gone, there was nothing keeping them apart, she noted. Connor did not respond to that sentiment very well, exclaiming that their romance was finished.

“You ungrateful prick. Rot in hell,” an angry Ava replied before walking away from Connor. When asked in a TVLine poll how the NBC drama would explain Connor’s absence following that final interaction, the winning response was “Connor took the job at the Mayo Clinic to get away from Ava.”

US Weekly first reported the news of Donnell’s return.

Chicago Med Season 5 premieres Wednesday, Sept. 25 at 8/7c on NBC.

Med fans, are you relieved that Connor will get a proper exit?

Let’s block ads! (Why?)

ITV viewers tuned in to see a jam-packed Britain’s Got Talent final last night and Colin Thackery was crowned the winner of the series. 

The 89-year-old, who is also a Chelsea Pensioner, said he dreamt of performing for his Queen and that is now a reality. 

Having beaten Act X’s incredible idenity reveal, the singer won the hearts of the nation. 

Speaking out on his success, he said he was: “Absolutely astonished. It’s incredible, I don’t know what to say, I’m stuck for words for a change! Thank you very much, all of you, all the backing I’ve had.” 

Presenter Ant McPartlin then reminding him of the prize he had won and when hearing about the £250,000 cash he exclaimed: “oooh!” 

But it was the chance to perform at the Royal Variety Performance that he was interested in. 

He replied: “That’s the job. That’s the one I wanted to be at.” 

It came after three million votes were casted and those watching at home took to Twitter to congratulate the veteran. 

One said: “So glad Colin won,” whilst another added: “#BGT thank you for your service Colin, I hope the royal variety is everything you’ve ever dreamed of.” 

Someone else wrote: “What a terrific gesture to donate his  #BGT prize money to @RHChelsea Colin Thackery makes us really proud of the @BritishArmy.” 

It cames after his beautiful performance when he was joined on stage by other Royal Chelsea Pensioners and military personnel. 

Following his song, the judges gave their comments and David Walliams said: “I think you are unbeatable!” whilst Alesha Dixon added: “You inspire me.” 

“I know this is a huge show, I know this isn’t about the glitz and glamour for you, it’s because you served your country and I hope tonight they served you,” Amanda Holden remarked.

“Both performances have been remarkable, you have genuinely my upmost respect, I salute your sir,” Simon Cowell concluded. 

For some viewers, Colin’s success came as a surprise, especially when he was in the final two with X or Marc Spellman as people later found out. 

Having gone through the whole audition process being know as a masked and hooded figure X, whilst performing magic. 

But tonight, during the final, he ended his act with a video which revealed his true identity. 

And viewers were transported back to the 2018 series when Marc auditioned as a magician. 

“It was always about hope and never giving up it. It has been an honour sharing X with you, I am X,” he exclaimed and those watching at home saw his mask come off and reveal himself as Ant and Dec’s 2018 Golden Buzzer semi-finalist, Marc.

The doctor is out — and he’s bummed about it. Chicago Med‘s Colin Donnell is confirming that he will not be returning to the Windy City-set hospital drama in Season 5.

“Sorry to say that this is true.” the actor behind Dr. Connor Rhodes lamented late Friday on social media, shortly after news of his exit broke. “I love my #ChicagoMed #OneChicago family dearly. And a special thank you to all the fans that have made these last four seasons so amazing.”

Donnell went on to say, “It’s been an honor to be a part of such a great trio of shows and in the [Dick Wolf] family. I know that there’s great things coming for Season 5 and I can’t wait to see what they are along with all you fans.”

The actor also posted a message on Instagram:

As also reported on Friday, Donnell’s Med co-star Norma Kuhling — who plays Dr. Ava Bekker — will also be leaving the series at the conclusion of Season 4. Additionally, Chicago P.D. star Jon Seda is departing that series after six seasons.

In February, NBC issued early renewals to Chicago Fire (for Season 8), P.D. (Season 7) and Med (Season 5). The trio currently air Wednesdays from 8-11 pm, with their season finales slated to air on May 22.

Sam Mendes may be best known for his Oscar-winning picture American Beauty. But the director has also worked on two Bond films and The Road to Perdition. Now Mendes is refocussing his directing talent on the past with 1917, a movie about World War One.

When is 1917 out in cinemas?

1917 has a US release date of December 25, 2019.

Fans in the UK will have to wait for the new year, with January 10, 2020, the film’s release date.

Germany and the Netherlands also have release dates scheduled for January 9 and January 16 respectively.

Rumour has it the movie will start shooting on April 1 across multiple locations in England.

What is the plot of 1917?

The plot details known so far are slim, but given the historical context, some intuitive guesses can be made.

What we do know is the film follows two young British soldiers on a single day during the height of World War One.

If this rings familiar, you’re not alone – Dunkirk likewise took place over a concise period of time but focussed on World War Two.

As more details are released, an official plot synopsis will likely make its way online.

Who is in the cast of 1917?

The two soldiers had been previously announced as George MacKay (Captain Fantastic) and Dean-Charles Chapman (Game of Thrones).

1917 will also feature a Sherlock reunion, with Andrew Scott and Benedict Cumberbatch joining the cast.

Daniel Mays, Adrian Scarborough, Jamie Parker, Nabhaan Rizwan and Claire Duburcq are all playing undisclosed roles.

Colin Firth, Mark Strong and Richard Madden have all been announced today as part of the 1917 cast.

Is there a trailer for 1917?

No, we are still a long way away from a trailer as filming has yet to begin.

Mendes co-wrote the screenplay with Krysty Wilson-Cairns (Penny Dreadful).

With a star-studded cast, anticipation for the trailer is running high.

1917 is out in cinemas on January 10, 2020.

It’s the tried and true experiment: stick a dysfunctional family in a big house for a day and see what happens. When done well, it can be a like a cathartic claustrophobic symphony. But Ben Wheatley‘s Happy New Year, Colin Burstead doesn’t pack a punch.

This particular story of family dysfunction is set in the grand Cumberland House in Dorset, also referred to by its characters as a castle, Burstead Hall and “fucking Downton Abbey.” It’s not exactly a bottle episode, because we do see glimpses of Colin (Neil Maskell), his Mum Sandy (Doon Mackichan) and his sister’s Gini’s houses (Hayley Squires), but not enough to get a sense of how differently they all live. With such a large ensemble and diversity of personalities, Happy New Year fails to flesh them out.

If Wheatley’s High Rise was a chaotic mess, overwhelmed by the demands of the J.G Ballard book, and Free Fire was a fun, but tiresome 90 minute gun fight, then Happy New Year, Colin Burstead is a stripped down, but disappointing family drama – like a souffle made with all the right ingredient but not given enough time to rise. And its lack of a clear resolution isn’t the problem. In fact, a family drama that did have one would be highly suspicious.

No, the main problem with Happy New Year is one of pacing. Running slightly over 96 minutes, the film feels both too short to get to the meat of the drama and long enough that it’s exhausting. It’s as filled to the brim with dialogue as a screwball comedy, but without the wit. The credits suggest that much of the dialogue was improvised. Though the gifted ensemble play off each other well and have moments of inspired honesty, the editing does them no favours. In fact, most of the scenes are intercut with other ones. Instead of creating a network of drama spread throughout the household, it comes across as impatience. Sometimes it’s worth lingering on the smoke curling out of a barrel, instead of cutting to the next gunshot.

In the first scene, it’s made clear that one member of the Burstead clan is not welcome. And yet, he has been invited, without anyone else’s knowledge or consent. Hints are dropped throughout as to what lead to this falling out. But by the time that David (Sam Riley) shows his face and we find out what it is that he did, it’s almost underwhelming. And it’s not to say that the film doesn’t have its moments. The gin fueled family’s banter, with its confusing array of regional accents, can be thrilling to watch…when it doesn’t cut to another scene straight away.

The family is driven and paralyzed by its desire to get along. Hasn’t everyone been in the middle of a chicken slaughter disguised as a family reunion, and thought to themselves “can’t we just all get along?” Well, then you would be much like Colin Burstead, the do-gooder of the family who forks out a load of cash to pay for the family’s New Year holiday stay. Save for the opening shot, in which he takes a deep inhale of vape, he spends most of the film running around putting out fires in every room, though his motivations becomes clearer when confronted by his siblings in the latter half of the film. He seeks credit for bringing the family together, but avoids spending an extended period of time with any of them. In a sense, Maskell seems to be the closest thing to a surrogate. He moves from room to room, closing doors behind him and opening ones he wished he hadn’t.

It’s one thing for a drama to not be propelled forward by drama, so much as wading in it. A family portrait about a family that can’t imagine what getting on would look like. But with so many implausible clashes and a dead-end subplots, the film really does feel like a missed opportunity. Characters are suggested, but they never become three dimensional. There’s a cross-dressing grandfather with a terminal illness, played by Charles Dance, a suicidal unemployed friend of the family, a caterer with two exes at the New Year’s Eve party, etc.

If anything, the film feels like an extended television pilot. And in fact, Wheatley has said that he is developing a TV series around the characters in the film. Perhaps that’s become the new methodology: make a feature length proof of concept for cheap and if the public responds well enough, make a TV show out of it. I hope that the TV show, if it does happen, is less directionless and overstuffed than the film. But TV series don’t have to be second drafts. I would much rather sit through a longer film if I felt like it was going somewhere. After all, there’s a reason Robert Altman movies are so long.

“What Phil and Nike have done,” Jordan said, “is turn me into a dream.”

The dream business was immensely profitable for Nike: Just a few years after Jordan’s first Nike commercial aired in 1985, the company surpassed a billion dollars in annual sales; a short while later, in 1988, Dan Wieden, of the Portland advertising firm Wieden + Kennedy, gave Nike its most enduring slogan: “Just Do It.” On Monday afternoon, in anticipation of that slogan’s 30th anniversary, Nike announced the former NFL quarterback Colin Kaepernick as the new face of the “Just Do It” campaign.

It’s significant that an institution as powerful as Nike has thrown its weight behind Kaepernick and his crusade against racial injustice, which began when he started kneeling during the national anthem—a move that has put him at odds with the NFL, and which has almost certainly kept football teams from employing him. But Nike has often been on the wrong side of social-justice movements, and in the past used its considerable power and influence to crush any protest movement that undermined the company’s bottom line.

Throughout the 1980s and ’90s, underage workers toiled in Indonesian factories producing Nike shoes; at factories in China, workers claimed they were coerced into putting in excessive overtime in order to meet Nike’s demanding production schedule; and in Vietnamese factories, workers faced dangerous conditions later documented by independent auditors from Ernst & Young. In the summer of 1997, when Nguyen Thi Thu Phuong died while making a pair of Nike shoes at a factory in Vietnam, the company’s response was to boldly claim: “We don’t make shoes.” This was a shockingly disingenuous statement from a company whose founder would later call his memoir Shoe Dog.

While reporting a book about Nike, I learned that during the spring of 2000, Knight sought to crush a growing campus-protest movement against sweatshop labor by quashing lucrative equipment and apparel deals with the University of Oregon and the University of Michigan. Behind closed doors, the billionaire resorted to more personal means of retribution, including withholding donations from a nonprofit organization run by the University of Oregon president, Dave Frohnmayer. When Nike did at last make concessions to labor unions at some of the factories making its shoes, it was only because of sustained efforts from labor and human-rights organizations, such as the Worker Rights Consortium. In the wake of this defeat, after years of ignoring or denying accusations that it had relied on sweatshop labor, Nike learned how to market itself as a good corporation with noble intentions, which were stymied only by its naïveté. It was a company trapped by its own humble beginnings, unaware of the immense power it had accrued, according to a May 2001 statement issued by Nike’s corporate and social responsibility manager, Harsh Saini.

“We were a bunch of shoe geeks who expanded so much without thinking of being socially responsible that we went from being a very sexy brand name to suddenly becoming the poster boy for everything bad in manufacturing,” Saini said.

Why Mahmoud Ahmadinejad praised Colin Kaepernick

Kaepernick’s “Just Do It” ad, which bears the slogan “Believe in Something. Even if it means sacrificing everything,” seems, on its face, to be more politically divisive than any campaign in Nike’s history—praised from the left for giving Kaepernick a platform to continue speaking out against police brutality and racial injustice, and vilified from the right by the likes of Sean Hannity, who remains determined to cast Kaepernick as unpatriotic and disrespectful. In reality, however, Nike’s standing with Kaepernick has nothing to do with politics and everything to do with the fact that he has transformed himself into an icon. For Nike, Kaepernick’s cause is simply good business—if it were anything other than a cynical branding exercise, the company would surely not be simultaneously doing business with the NFL, which has done its best to stifle Kaepernick’s protest movement.

One of capitalism’s most enduring myths is the idea that there are good corporations and bad corporations. The truth is far more simple: Colin Kaepernick has a dream, and selling dreams is Nike’s business.

  • When Colin Kaepernick found himself without a job in the NFL, he turned his focus to activism, donating time and money to a wide variety of causes.
  • In just over a year, Kaepernick donated over $ 1 million to various charities, ranging in causes from social justice to education.
  • While Kaepernick has now re-entered the spotlight as the face of Nike’s latest campaign, his commitment to his work doesn’t show any signs of wavering.

Colin Kaepernick hasn’t played an NFL snap since 2016, but that hasn’t stopped him from using the money he made during his time in the league to make an impact off the field.

Kaepernick became a lightning rod of attention for his protests of police brutality during the national anthem before kickoff and subsequently found himself without a roster spot in 2017. While the protests he inspired carried on through the 2017 season, Kap himself turned to activism, dedicating his time and a significant amount of money to causes and charities that inspired him and helped others.

1 MY WARDROBE

I wouldn’t exactly describe myself as a dandy but I do love clothes and I like to have them all neatly organised in my giant wardrobe.

It is very important to me to look my best and be neat and tidy.

I think it’s the way I was brought up, as nobody in my family would ever have considered going out without polishing their shoes first.

I don’t necessarily follow fashion but I’d like to think I am fairly stylish, even if I’m just wearing jeans and a T-shirt.

The largest amount of money I have ever spent on an item of clothing was on a Gucci coat that I bought in New York several years ago.

It cost £3,000 and when my mum found out she thought it was a complete waste of money.

However I have worn it so many times since I see it as more of an investment.

2 CANADA

I am very lucky that my career has allowed me to travel the world and visit so many wonderful places.

But I can honestly say that out of all the countries I have ever been to Canada is my favourite.

It is stunningly beautiful and the people are exceedingly friendly and accepting.

In my opinion it has the beauty of Switzerland, the space and confidence of the US and the liberal ethos of Britain.

The Canadians are proud of their country and rightly so as it really has something for everyone.

3 SOCIAL MEDIA

In our digital age the online world is often vilified but I love platforms such as Instagram and Twitter.

They are a good way to stay connected and can be a great deal of fun.

I am not someone who has an axe to grind or who likes to rant.

Instead, for me, social media represents the lighter side of life as I love looking at beautiful pictures of food, happy times and holidays.

4 WALLET

This sounds pretty obvious but I probably wouldn’t get very far without credit cards and cash and I am always very aware that I am privileged not to have to worry too much about money.

That does not mean I am irresponsible as I am quite a saver and I appreciate the sense of security that having something tucked away for a rainy day gives me.

Having said that though, I do like a splurge which is why I always have my wallet with me as you never know when you might need an emergency chocolate fix.

Being fairly careful most of the time gives me choices.

So if I want to go off and rent a villa in the sun for three months to recharge my batteries that is exactly what I’ll do.

5 GOOD HEALTH

So many people take their health for granted but that is a mistake as it is something we all need to be more proactive about.

Looking after our bodies is one of the ways in which we can try to protect ourselves and that is why I always make the effort to eat well and exercise regularly.

I go for a power walk every morning, I do regular yoga sessions and I also try to get to the gym twice a week.

But I’m not puritanical about it all because, after all, we all need to have fun.

So if I fancy the odd ice cream or pizza I’m not going to feel guilty.

Good Morning Britain viewers tuned in to see Lady Colin Campbell and Lindsay Meadows, a cuddling therapist, join the show to discuss whether workplaces should employ professional cuddles to “spread the love”.

During the conversation, Lady Colin Campbell did not hold back with her opinion on the matter and made a controversial remark which left the breakfast show hosts speechless.

Ranvir Singh, 41, asked: “Lady Colin Campbell who do you like hugging?”

But she was left stunned by the response, with the 69-year-old replying: “Well I like hugging who I like to hug. But you know, professional hugging skates very close to prostitution.

“The fact of the matter is, affection has got to be sincere, spontaneous, natural, to be desirable.” 

Ranvir and her Good Morning Britain co-host Kate Garraway could be heard audibly gasping at the comment. 

The camera then panned to show Ranvir looking at the guest open-mouthed.

But Lady Colin Campbell continued, adding:  “If it’s paid, if it’s professional, you’re getting very close to not only moral problems, but psychological problems. 

“I mean, if people have a problem, and need to be hugged they can have their own arrangements with their colleagues. I’m sorry I think it’s very dangerous.” 

Lindsay, the cuddling therapist then explained how her job works, noting: “Normally I do one to one sessions, and the hugging is part of a process to make people feel supported. 

“The hugging builds confidence, builds affection. [And there’s] a real focus on boundaries and what people are comfortable with.”

“Oh well, if it’s one to one hugging [private sessions] that’s slightly different.” Lady Colin Campbell remarked.

“But if you’re giving therapy in the workplace, and it’s orchestrated paid for affection, it’s a problem.” 

To end the discussion, Kate, 51, suggested everyone hug it out and the writer even joined in.

Those watching today’s Good Morning Britain were quick to comment on the remark Lady Colin Campbell had made.

Taking to Twitter, one wrote: “@ranvir01 your face was a picture when Lady Colin Campbell was talking lol.” 

Another added: “@GMB Ranvirs face!!!! So funny! Hugging is prostitution – WHAT??”

“@GMB #GMB Hugging is no where near prostitution at all, I like the idea of a professional cuddler 🙂 it’s not dangerous to hug someone, it does help,” one viewer suggested. 

“@GMB I really do find hugging an invasion of privacy,” another argued. However a viewer responded: “#GMB hugging discussion…brilliant! I need a hug – what a great idea.”

You can take the men out of Weekend Update, but you can’t take the Weekend Update outta the men.

In a new promo for this year’s Emmys telecast, Saturday Night Live co-stars Michael Che and Colin Jost — who are hosting the ceremony — joke that the evening’s winners will be decided by the voters.

“And we know how that works out,” Che says, with a knowing glance at the camera. “Uh-oh, political!”

The 70th Primetime Emmy Awards will air Monday, Sept. 17, on NBC. SNL svengali Lorne Michaels will executive-produce the broadcast, which will take place at the Microsoft Theater in Los Angeles and reportedly will feature appearances by other Not Ready for Primetime Players.

When their hosting gig was announced, the comedians said via statement, “We’re proud to be the first duo hosting the Emmys since Jenna Elfman and David Hyde Pierce, and somehow that’s a real fact.” (P.S. It is.)
