Interesting stuff in the latest promo for The Candidate..

Excellent teaser promo poster for the new series of True Blood.

First we had Lost and Battlestar Galactica doing The Last Supper, now True Blood are doing The Garden of Eden.

Director of last year's Star Trek film J.J Abrams has given the biggest hint yet that William Shatner could make an appearance in the forthcoming sequel.

The Starship Enterprise's original Captain Kirk turned down a cameo appearance for 2009's Star Trek movie, because of the fairly large part played by Leonard Nimoy. role.

In the new film it could be that Shatner plays an older version of Captain Kirk in much the same way that Nimoy did with Spock due to the time travel elements of the film.

Speaking on MTV Abrams said: "The point of creating this independent timeline is to not have the restrictions we had coming into this one,"

"And one of those restrictions was that Kirk was dead."

The sequel is scheduled for release in 2012.

A car wash with a difference.

Writhing all over your car covered in soap suds are bikini clad Princess Leia impersonators.

We can think of worse.

Soap stars who have gone onto achieve success in Hollywood have done so with mixed results. Ex-Brooksider Anna Friel was the darling of American TV for a while in Pushing Daisies while Corrie's Matthew Marsden has carved out a niche in action films, popping up in everything from Black Hawk Down to Rambo 4 and Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen. However, Martine "Tiffany" McCutcheon attempts to parlay a winning performance in Love, Actually into a film career met only with disappointment.
Adam Croasdell, like Martine, has abandoned Walford for LA after a nine month stint as GP Al Jenkins.
His American adventure got off to an encoraging start when he was almost immediately cast in an episode of Supernatural.
Hammer of The Gods premiered last week in the US and should hit UK screens, where the series is being shown on Living on Wednesdays, at the beginning of June.
We probed Adam, 29, on how he graduated from patching up Mitchells and Beales to tangling with the Winchesters.

Star Wars as you have never seen it before.

It's a cracking collection of photographs that places Lego Star Wars characters in unusual scenes.

This one's better!

Very well put together fan's montage of the season so far on Lost...

I think it is fair to say the next episode is going to be pretty intense!
