The World According To Bex

World According To Bex stars Bex Atwell, a secretary who's stuck in an 'almost' world - 'almost' in a relationship, 'almost' in a good job, 'almost' a size 10/12.

Bex is trying to figure out what a smart woman is supposed to do in a world where men behave like… well, men, but the more she discovers the more infuriating they become.

Bex's boss Charles doesn't acknowledge relationship boundaries; her on/off boyfriend Ryan is worried that she's "trying to corral his seed", and her womanising father Jack has regressed into one of the lads.

With the help of her acerbic friend Chris and her subversive office mate Jan, Bex tries to work out what men are all about and why women even bother trying to work them out in the first place.

Jessica Stevenson plays Bex Atwell, Greg Wise plays Charles, Oliver Chris plays Ryan, Clive Russell plays Jack, Raquel Cassidy plays Chris and Zita Sattar plays Jan.

The World According To Bex is created by Fred Barron.

Making Your Mind Up

Hello United Kingdom, this is the Ukraine calling… at least it will be in 2005.

But before we get there, the nation needs to choose a song with plenty of boom-bang-a-bang to bring home the coveted trophy.

Yes, it's time to unfurl the Union flag with a cry of "nul points - never again!" and cast your vote when Making Your Mind Up makes a triumphant return in the spring.

Ok, so we didn't win last year, but at least James Fox hit all the right notes - but did you think he was the wrong choice?

If so, there is only one way to make sure your act goes to the Ukraine as Eurovision celebrates its 50th anniversary in 2005, and that's to vote.

Whether it's via SMS or interactively with the red button, there really can be no excuse not to get involved this time!

Over the years, Comic Relief cash in Africa has educated people about HIV and Aids, taught women to read and helped rebuild communities after conflict.

Across the UK it has helped disabled people challenge prejudice and discrimination, supported older people in their fight to get rights recognised and provided escape routes for women living with domestic violence.

Red Nose Day 2003 raised a whopping £61,477,539 thanks to support from fundraisers around the country.

During next March's Red Nose Night viewers will be able to see how their money has helped Comic Relief to make a real difference to the poorest and most vulnerable people in the UK and Africa.

This year is all about Big Hair and Beyond - changing the way you look for a day to help transform someone else's life forever.

So Red Nose Day 2005 promises to be the biggest, reddest restyle in history!

29 Minutes Of Fame

From the creators of Whose Line Is It Anyway?, 29 Minutes Of Fame is the panel show in which anything can happen.

For some, fame is a fleeting moment in the glare of the camera flash, for others it lasts a lifetime.

But no matter what its nature, fame is a game, and some play it better than others.

The show takes two teams of well known faces from the world of comedy and makes them battle it out over a series of rounds to uncover who knows the most about anyone with an ounce of celebrity - from Albert Einstein to Kylie Minogue.

Cheeky and completely irreverent, this fame game has got to be played to win, but in this instance the running time is a little longer than Warhol's 15 minutes. It's 29 to be exact.
