The Real Full Monty was such a hit when it aired a month ago that Fox has decided to re-air the special for New Year’s Day 2025!
The special, featuring six male celebs stripping on TV, will serve as an evening to raise awareness for prostate, testicular and colorectal cancer testing and research.
Anthony Anderson is executive producing the special and will be one of the six stars stripping down and he’s recruited five more guys to join him.
“Don’t die of embarrassment. Get checked! That’s the message behind The Real Full Monty special,” Anthony said in a statement. “I am honored to lead the charge of rallying these fearless men to bare it all, in order to provoke, inspire and in this case, beg you to get screened for cancer. That’s our goal…so what are you waiting for!?”
Anthony will lead the men “as they train and rehearse for the most revealing performance of their careers, culminating with a big strip-tease dance, choreographed by Emmy Award-winner Mandy Moore, where they will bare all in front of a live audience. Leading up to the final disrobing, the men will push their limits of comfortability, modesty and brotherhood with a series of rehearsals and experiences, both private and public, designed to build confidence and remove them far from their comfort zone and strengthen their bond as a group. Along the way, each of the celebrities will share their personal stories of how cancer has impacted their lives.”
Fox is airing the two-hour special again at 8/7c on Wednesday (January 1).
Get ready for the ultimate strip tease on Fox TV! The Real Full Monty cast has been revealed and these six male celebs are baring it all for a good cause.
Anthony Anderson, Bruno Tonioli, Chris Jones, James Van Der Beek, Taye Diggs, and Tyler Posey are all set to take it off in this special television event. From actors to dancers to TV personalities, this diverse group of men are coming together to raise awareness for prostate cancer and promote body positivity.
The Real Full Monty will be a night to remember, as these brave stars shed their clothes and show off their moves on stage. So mark your calendars and tune in to Fox for this unforgettable TV special.
Check out the slideshow on Just Jared for a sneak peek at what’s to come and get ready for The Real Full Monty like you’ve never seen it before!

DI Kat Donovan (Rosalind Eleazar) isn’t a woman who makes life easy for herself. Her dad’s murderer is about to die, so she’s decided to go and visit him on his deathbed. Her ex – who disappeared when she was grieving, 11 years earlier – has matched with her on a dating app and rather than running a mile, she’s swiped right. This thriller, adapted from a novel by Harlan Coben, relies heavily on such contrivances to build its narrative. It’s equal parts a twisty murder mystery and a study in trauma – as such, takes itself incredibly seriously. But the fine ensemble cast, which also includes Ashley Walters, Lenny Henry and a cartoonishly villainous Marc Warren, keep things interesting. Netflix, from New Year’s Day
The Rig

Back to the North Sea, where humanity’s attempts to wean itself off oil fuel this pungently overripe but still enjoyable drama starring Martin Compston and Rochenda Sandall. The remains of the crew are reeling from the tsunami and Mark Addy’s villainous company man Coake isn’t helping: he’s whisked the riggers off to the Arctic Circle where they are presented with an offer. Tickets home, £200k and your signature on an iron-clad non-disclosure agreement. Will they sign? And in the meantime, has mother earth finished her rumblings? The Rig is admirably unafraid of going dramatically big as we find out. PH Prime Video, from Thursday2 January

This platform has made its name as a reliable purveyor of cosy crime dramas. It brings the second series of this gentle but accomplished Australian murder mystery in which widowed former nurse Joan (Greta Scacchi) and retired cop Jack (Bryan Brown) travel the outback. They’re looking for answers regarding the death of Joan’s husband – but as they engage with the sometimes eccentric communities they encounter, other peculiar situations draw them in. It’s bright and breezy but the characters are sturdily constructed and there’s an undercurrent of melancholy too. PH Acorn TV, from Monday 30 December
Swedish EDM producer Avicii (real name Tim Bergling) saw his career go stratospheric as a result of his 2011 single, Levels, but he died by suicide in 2018. This intimate documentary explores his life story through interviews and behind-the-scenes footage. It concentrates more on his vertiginous rise than his death – but with Bergling himself providing the narration from past recordings, there’s a haunting sense of the apparently shy and self-contained man behind the public image. Netflix are also launching a concert film of Avicii’s final show, from Ibiza’s Ushuaïa. PH Netflix, from New Year’s Eve

With this performance, Floridian standup Buteau becomes the first female comic to film a special at New York’s Radio City Music Hall. But, as she puts it: “I’d better not be the fucking last!” It’s a raucous and life-affirming hour of comedy in which Buteau takes stock of fame, motherhood and marriage, and ponders the implications of her success. Not least among which is being eagerly followed by Lenny Kravitz on Instagram and being able to tease her husband about his dangerous new love rival. PH Netflix, from New Year’s Eve

All the uber-camp of the festive season is thrown at this latest expansion of the Drag Race universe in which six veterans of the franchise spend the holiday season together in a snowy Canadian winter resort. The idea is that they’ll put on a production of some sort for the community at the end of the week, but that feels like a pretext for partying, rivalries and industrial quantities of passive aggressive shade-throwing. The featured queens include Jada Shada Hudson, Kerri Colby, Kandy Muse and our very own Lawrence Chaney. PH Wow TV, from New Year’s Eve

Everyone knows the drill by now: this series from the creators of hate-watch Selling Sunset follows a group of aggressively crass estate agents from the Douglas Elliman organisation as they sell garish properties in the clouds above New York City to unfeasibly rich and demanding punters. Alongside all the property porn, there’s a whole world of performatively fractious interpersonal relationships as the idea that the agents are a collaborative, mutually supportive team is optimistically posited but quickly crumbles like a stale mince pie. PH Netflix, from Friday3 January

“I think that any self-respecting murder mystery has to have a priest in it …” It’s time to meet the paranoid contestants of the third series of Claudia Winkleman’s smash-hit reality game. A former British diplomat, an interior designer with thoughts on the castle (and people’s fashion choices), a bird-watching barber and an ex-soldier nicknamed Barbie are some of the other folks who will become traitors or faithfuls. While they might feel savvier about how the game works, the opening show quickly teaches them to never have expectations. Winkleman’s mittens might be on, but the gloves are off from the moment they board the steam train to the Highland castle. Hollie Richardson

They are stationed in the port of Suez planning their next mission with sights on mainland Europe, but there is also doubt over the future of the regiment. Hollie Richardson

There’s no question that the stakes are low in The Split: Barcelona. Its plot? A family of high-flying divorce lawyers go to a mansion set at the top of a rolling vineyard for a wedding and suffer a series of slight disappointments. But the return of The Split – and its smart, well heeled and sensible characters – is still an utterly enchanting piece of work.
After three acclaimed series created by Emmy-winning writer Abi Morgan, the Defoe family of divorce lawyers reunite for two episodes where Hannah (the resplendent Nicola Walker) and ex-husband Nathan’s (Stephen Mangan) daughter Liv (Elizabeth Roberts) is due to marry into a Spanish wine dynasty, with a new mother- and father-in-law who spend most of their dialogue describing the intensity of their three-decades-old love. But things are further complicated when Liv has to sign a prenup and it transpires that the family lawyer who devised it is Archie (the perma-smouldering Toby Stephens) – whom Hannah ghosted during a bout of acute commitment-phobia after six extremely hot dates.
It works entirely well as a standalone piece, which is easy enough to follow given the clear motives and context clues. But for fans of the previous series it’s a true Christmas treat – remaining as magnificently well written and subtly acted as the prior outings. Just a light glance of the back of the hands of Hannah and Archie is ludicrously sexy and the frisson between Stephens and Walker raises the temperature in the already warm Catalan countryside. While there are a few twists and turns that occur in the execution of the nuptials themselves, it’s largely a show that fortifies your faith in the bonds of family, with different generations treating each other to true warmth and imparting valuable wisdom about not wasting opportunities for second chances at love.
It’s also impeccably styled. The Barcelona it depicts seems like an easy place in which to fall in love, filled with light-dappled horizons, elegantly converted farmhouses and coves where turquoise seas gently lap at blindingly white sand. Each wedding guest is permanently tailored to the nines, clad in silky ensembles while sipping on crisp cava and nibbling perfectly aged chorizo.
If there’s a criticism to have of The Split, it’s that it’s too grownup, too chic, too sensible. As gorgeous and well performed as it is, its resistance to melodrama is occasionally grating. Even in the aftermath of the biggest dramatic climaxes, the characters are more than happy to gather around for a polite breakfast.
And as much as the show’s production is stunningly rendered, this does not extend to the most prominent black character – Kobna Holdbrook-Smith, playing the vicar Glen Peters, who is in a relationship with Hannah’s impossibly chic sister Rose (Fiona Button). He is often lit with little consideration and appears as barely more than a silhouette. Thankfully, Holdbrook-Smith’s skills as an actor mean he is able to have a compelling screen presence, and the complex relationship between him and Rose proves more compelling than the coupling of the bride and groom – given the blended family that they are tenuously holding together under the pressures of parenthood.
But the true heart, soul and riveting talent at the centre of The Split remains Walker. Whether she’s making tentative babysteps towards romance, gently teasing her ex-husband, comforting her devastated family members or engaging in some legal badassery, she is always an enthralling screen presence. Her Hannah Defoe is a protagonist for the ages, a tangle of contradictions including being a commitment-phobe who believes in love, a straight shooting professional who cannot keep a secret and the possessor of one of the sharpest bobs on television. Her performance combined with a rich ensemble of characters who are hopeless romantics, cynics, cheats, liars – and sometimes several of these things at once – mean that there is much for Hannah to deal with on her weekend in Catalonia. But there’s always a sense that this family, for all that they have to contend with – having been colleagues as well as kin over the past four series – will come together in any crisis, whether it’s a high-profile divorce case, a pregnancy scare or a painfully awkward pre-wedding brunch. Spending time with three generations of the Defoe clan remains a sharp, witty joy in its fourth outing.
The Split: Barcelona is a show that oozes sex appeal and seduction in every frame. From the sun-drenched streets of Barcelona to the steamy love scenes, there are moments that are just ludicrously sexy.
The show follows the lives of a group of high-powered divorce lawyers as they navigate the ups and downs of their personal and professional lives. The cast is filled with beautiful and talented actors who bring a sense of glamour and sophistication to the screen.
The chemistry between the characters is palpable, especially between the two female leads who share a complicated history and a simmering attraction. Their interactions are charged with tension and desire, making for some truly steamy moments.
But beyond the sexy exterior, The Split: Barcelona also delves into deeper themes of love, betrayal, and the complexities of relationships. The characters are flawed and complex, making for a compelling and emotional viewing experience.
Overall, The Split: Barcelona is a show that is not only visually stunning but also emotionally engaging. It’s a must-watch for anyone who enjoys a mix of steamy romance and gripping drama.

When Rosalind Eleazar got married last year on a Greek island, she asked her agents not to contact her about work. But the day after the wedding (which took place in a mini amphitheatre – “we are so extra”) she was “exceptionally hungover” when she got a call about a job: the lead in Netflix’s new Harlan Coben adaptation, Missing You. Eleazar immediately bought the book and, to the mild annoyance of her new husband, the Italian producer and director Gabriele Lo Giudice (“he wasn’t best pleased”), spent her honeymoon reading it. “Those final five pages – are you kidding me?” She shakes her head, wide-eyed. “I did not in my wildest dreams imagine that was where it was going.”
It is a fairly typical reaction to a Coben story. Over the last few years, the mystery US author has turned his bestselling novels into an enormously successful televisual universe: this year’s Fool Me Once is Netflix’s most watched show of 2024, with 107.5m views. Eleazar is aware, though, that critics can be sniffy about the glossy and endlessly twisty adaptations. “Everyone’s entitled to their own opinions,” she says. “But a) there’s something for everyone; and b) let it live in the space that it’s trying to live in. It doesn’t need to be compared to Succession.”
In Missing You, which drops a bingeable five episodes on New Year’s Day, the 36-year-old, best known for Apple TV+’s spy thriller Slow Horses, heads up a cast that includes Lenny Henry, Ashley Walters and Coben regular Richard Armitage. We meet Detective Kat Donovan 11 years after the double trauma of her father’s murder and her fiance leaving without explanation. But when her ex pops up on a dating app, Donovan pulls at the thread, unravelling the reasons for his disappearance and the truth about her father’s death. Of course, this being Coben, there is also police corruption, multiple kidnappings and Steve Pemberton as a sinister dog breeder. “It’s relentless!” says Eleazar cheerfully. “What I like about [Donovan] is that she is a survivor. She has these moments where she is incredibly hurt but she picks herself right back up again. I think people in life do that a lot more than TV gives credit for.”

Having previously worked on Armando Iannucci’s The Personal History of David Copperfield, which employed colour-blind casting, Eleazar appreciated Missing You’s approach to race: “It was just allowing a predominantly Black cast to exist in the commercial world, having fun – well, not fun, because it’s a traumatic story! But they just exist and race isn’t mentioned … Consideration was taken into culture and by our costume designer, like with what the aunties are wearing. I’m always pushing to have my natural hair in shows and these were conscious decisions.”
The daughter of a white British mother and Ghanaian father, Eleazar was raised in Clapham, south London. “I was very much stuck to my mum as my protector,” she says. “I never really felt that I fitted in, without being too violin-y. I think it’s partly to do with being brought up by the white side of my family. Some of my earliest memories are of people not thinking my mum was my mum, so I spent a lot of time trying to prove she was.”
Eleazar and her mother regularly visited Ghana – “one of the most special places on the planet” – and after she graduated from the University of Nottingham with a degree in Mandarin and Spanish, she moved there for a couple of years. “One particular visit, [my father] had said: ‘When you finish uni, why don’t you come to live here, get to know the family, get to know me?’ Unfortunately, he died before then, but I decided to go anyway.” Several of her siblings are in Ghana’s film and TV industry and working for her brother’s production company reminded Eleazar how much she had loved acting in school plays. She ended up moving back to the UK to study at Lamda in her mid-20s and since graduating, her stage roles have included The Starry Messenger opposite Matthew Broderick, and Uncle Vanya, for which she won the 2020 Clarence Derwent award.
Now she and Lo Giudice live in east London, convenient for the apparently constant shooting of Eleazar’s biggest hit to date, Slow Horses. With series five already completed and due to air next year, she is filming series six and is clearly besotted with the show, which follows a ragtag bunch of MI5 misfits led by Gary Oldman and Jack Lowden. “Oh my God, I absolutely love it,” she says. “Do you know what I find interesting about the Slow Horses? It’s that they’re competent, but just objectionable. You don’t want to go to dinner with them.” Her feelings about the cast themselves couldn’t be more contradictory – they are extremely close and hit hard by the show’s willingness to bump off main characters: “When a person gets killed off, it shifts the energy.”
While Slow Horses was a sleeper hit, riding word-of-mouth buzz to its first Emmy win (for writing) in September, Eleazar knows that Missing You could not be more different: eagerly anticipated by millions of dedicated Coben fans ready for a post-Christmas hit of escapist thrills. “The fact is that people do gobble it up,” says Eleazar. “The figures are insane. In a way, it’s a bit of a shame that it’s binged. You’re like, ‘wow that’s just gone in five hours’ and it’s taken me five months and other people even longer to make. But look, that’s where we are.”
Are you kidding me? How Slow Horses’ Rosalind Eleazar took on a sensational thriller
Rosalind Eleazar has been making waves in the television industry with her compelling performance in the new thriller series Slow Horses. The British actress has captivated audiences with her portrayal of a sharp and savvy intelligence officer who finds herself at the center of a high-stakes mission.
Eleazar’s character, Catherine Standish, is a complex and multi-dimensional role that showcases the actress’s range and talent. From her quick-witted dialogue delivery to her intense and emotional moments, Eleazar effortlessly brings Catherine to life on screen.
The slow-burning tension and suspense of Slow Horses make it a must-watch for fans of thrillers and espionage dramas. Eleazar’s captivating performance adds an extra layer of intrigue to the already gripping storyline, keeping viewers on the edge of their seats.
If you haven’t already tuned in to Slow Horses, now is the time to catch up and witness Rosalind Eleazar’s incredible performance. This sensational thriller is sure to leave you on the edge of your seat and eagerly anticipating what’s next for Catherine Standish. Trust us, you won’t be disappointed.
The premise sells itself: a thirtysomething woman is transported to a parallel life each time she orgasms. But, actually, this lends itself surprisingly well to digging deep into millennial frustrations, anxiety and ennui. Zoe Lister-Jones plays Mae Cannon, a New York art curator who feels stuck in a rut with her life – specifically with her longterm husband. When she cheats with another man, she wakes up in a new life where she married him, and so the cycle begins, with each new relationship forcing Mae to re-examine her identity and ideals. Does she want, or get, her original life back? No spoilers here, but without ever zapping the smart, sharp comedy that carries it through, this introspection is relatable for many. Watch it on ITVX
Somebody Somewhere

We’ve said it before, and frankly we’ll keep saying it: we implore you to watch this gorgeous comedy, which comes to a close this year after three delightful seasons. Starring the brilliant, big-voiced standup Bridget Everett as Sam, who returns to Kansas after the death of one of her sisters, and breakout star Jeff Hiller as her best pal Joel, it’s about friendship and found family and grief and great singing – plus Sam’s sister’s cracking line of foul-mouthed cushions. There aren’t many shows that could pair sleepovers and STIs so hilariously. Run don’t walk. Watch it on Now
English Teacher
Nuanced characters, stellar performances, a barbed script that took aim at the way curriculums have become political battlegrounds – without ever feeling preachy: this was one of the best comedy debuts of the year. Its tale of English teacher Evan Marquez and his ragtag crew of teaching oddball pals was full of heart, great gags and the ability to wryly lampoon gen Z from a place of love. Season two cannot come soon enough. Watch it on Disney+

When Netflix revived Girls5Eva – a Peacock sitcom about a reformed early-noughties girlgroup that was cancelled after two seasons due to lack of interest – there was joy in the streets. Finally, one of the most overlooked comedies would at last get its flowers. And yet Netflix just cancelled Girls5Eva too, due to lack of interest. Still, the public’s loss was our gain. It meant that this year we got six more episodes of beautifully crafted joke-first comedy than we were expecting. What a gift. Watch it on Netflix
After the Party

If this had been released earlier in the year it would surely have topped the best TV of the year lists all over the world. Arriving in the UK with utterly glowing reviews from its native New Zealand, Robyn Malcolm is a revelation as Penny, a teacher whose life has been incrementally falling apart ever since she accused her then-husband Phil of sexually assaulting a minor at his birthday party. The whole thing is shot through with a horrific sense of where-to-next dread, and Peter Mullan keeps his performance as Phil unbelievably ambiguous throughout. But this is Malcolm’s moment – and she plays it immaculately. A masterwork.

If you haven’t yet wept at this beautiful pearl of a show about the incredibly trying and affecting adoption process, stop what you’re doing right now. Sion Daniel Young and Fra Fee are wonderful as Gabriel and Andy, the couple attempting to adopt. But it is their Jake (Leo Harris, in his first major role) who is the real scene-stealer. Emotionally raw with an excellent script, plus cabaret performances, this is unlike anything else you’ll watch in a long while. Watch it on iPlayer
We Might Regret This

Not only does this sexy comedy drama upend the usual telly tropes about disabled women’s lives – it is also full of spit-out-funny zingers that made it one of the funniest shows of the year. Created by Lee Getty and Kyla Harris, it follows sardonic thirtysomething Canadian artist Freya (Harris), who is tetraplegic and was “disabled way before it was cool”. She is living in London with her new lover Abe (Darren Boyd), when her chaotic “ex-best friend” Jo (Elena Saurel) turns up and becomes her personal assistant. Behind the sarcastic quips and sharp observations, Freya and Abe have a romance that you really want to work out. And Sally Phillips is fantastic as Abe’s ex. Watch it on iPlayer
Jury Duty: Murder Trial
An intriguing nugget that hasn’t been talked about nearly enough, Jury Duty: Murder Trial is a total one-off in social experiment TV. It took a real-life case, got actors to recreate it for two separate juries, and gave us a rare and fascinating look inside the judicial system. Jurors cried, had fights, and showed us how easily humans can switch sides. But above all, it left us reeling with the possibility that the two deliberation rooms would reach different verdicts – and what that would mean for society. Eye-opening and frankly terrifying. Watch it on Channel 4
A Man on the Inside

Given Michael Schur’s hard comedy pedigree as the showrunner of both Parks and Recreation and The Good Place, the first episode of his new show A Man on the Inside was slightly flummoxing. The humour was much more gentle, the pace more sedate, than we’re used to. And yet in the end it worked perfectly. The cranks and weirdos were pushed to the peripheries, leaving Ted Danson to be charming and melancholy in the central role as a widower spying on residents of a care home. A show so warm that you didn’t mind when it emotionally obliterated you. Watch it on Netflix
Boybands Forever

The joyous archive footage of grannies talking about Take That! The weirdly sweet insights into Brian Harvey’s relationship with Daniella Westbrook! Everything Robbie Williams says! This documentary about British male pop groups in the 90s/00s was a hugely colourful watch packed full of astonishing detail and interviews in which participants were not afraid to bare their souls – or take the industry’s grubbier practices to task. Absolute must-watch stuff. Watch it on iPlayer
Big Zuu Goes to Mecca

So open and inquiring is the chef-cum-grime MC in his culinary programming that it didn’t need a great stretch of the imagination to picture him as a brilliant documentarian. But that made this touching, heartfelt look at being a Muslim in modern Britain no less of an achievement, as Zuu went on pilgrimage to Mecca, using his quick wit to befriend seemingly everyone he met – and finding himself movingly overawed by the experience.

Fargo
Impeccable … Juno Temple in Fargo. Photograph: Landmark Media/Alamy
The fifth season of Noah Hawley’s TV spin-off from the Coen brothers movie flew so under the radar that 2024 was the year it won over the few who found it – despite its November 2023 release. Juno Temple’s excellent lead performance as a suburban mum with a secret past as a domestic abuse escaper breathed new life into a franchise that many had accused of flagging. She impeccably alternated between perpetrating Home Alone-esque ultraviolence you couldn’t help but root for, and moments of trauma-driven terror. Even Jon Hamm, on disturbingly malevolent form as a violently corrupt sheriff, couldn’t outshine her. Watch it on Prime Video
Rob and Rylan’s Grand Tour

Pairing Rob Rinder and Rylan Clark for a cultural odyssey across the European grand tour was a masterstroke that turned a simple telly idea into something really special. It was beautiful watching this odd couple – Rylan, “a ginger kid from a council flat in Stepney Green” who was expected to “stay in his lane”, and Rob, an Oxbridge-educated criminal barrister with an interest in art and opera – build a friendship in which they shared differences, perspectives and an openness to learn from the world and each other. There was also personal soul-searching, as the two men talked about finding love again after romantic separations. It was lovely viewing, and a lesson to never stay in your lane. Watch it on iPlayer
Josh Must Win
This delightfully daft, high-concept reality TV show was a refreshing attempt to break with the pouting, preening world of wannabe influencers. A celebrity panel helmed by Nick Grimshaw tried to covertly manipulate contestants into voting for the one modest, geeky contestant, Josh, to win – otherwise they’d all lose out on the potential cash prize. As much an interesting peek behind the curtain of reality shows as it was a well-meaning, highly watchable piece of entertainment. Watch it on Channel 4
John Mulaney Presents: Everybody’s in LA

For six nights in May, Everybody’s in LA became the most ramshackle appointment television in the history of the medium. Seemingly flung together on the fly, although absurdly stylish, John Mulaney’s attempt at a late night talkshow – broadcast live by Netflix – was a thing of undeniably shaggy charm. The guests were uniformly baffled, the call-ins barely worked, a grocery robot kept invading the stage. And yet at its best, this was event TV. If there was a funnier moment all year than the character Waingro from Heat performing observational standup comedy to the audible delight of Bill Hader and David Letterman, I’d like to see it.
