ON THE BRINK Benedict Cumberbatch wrestles with his demons in miniseries Patrick Melrose Hot on the heels of his starring role in BBC First’s The Child in Time, Benedict Cumberbatch steps into the shoes of title character Patrick Melrose in the upcoming miniseries of the same name. Based on the novel series by Edward St Aubyn, each of the five episodes encompasses one of the books, beginning in 1960s France, through 1980s New York and finishing in 2000s Britain. While on the surface the character may appear dapper and well-put-together in his trademark suit, overcoat and sunglasses, the program chronicles his devastating spiral into substance abuse – a result of a traumatic childhood. For Cumberbatch (pictured), who also executive produced the series, the role was simply too juicy to turn down. A self-confessed “huge fan”…

A matter of LIFE and DEATH

Two very different men with contrasting backgrounds, lifestyles and incomes are brought together in shocking circumstances after a tragedy shatters both of their lives. Adrian Lester and John Simm star in three-part drama Trauma, written by ‘man of the moment’ Mike Bartlett – the creator behind gripping ratings smash-hit Doctor Foster. True to form, he plays with viewers’ sympathies and expectations – keeping them guessing throughout with allegiances swinging from one man to another as the drama unfolds. Lester plays high-achieving, well-educated and confident trauma consultant Jon Allerton, with Simm as struggling factory manager Dan Bowker. What they have in common is the love of their respective families. Both are intrinsically good men, but when they come together the trauma sets them on an unpredictable route. “You don’t often get to play characters who…

I also once had a job at Windsurfing Manhattan. I thought it was a front – I mean, who is windsurfing on the Hudson River? And I was fired from [the ’80s series] Growing Pains. Well, I was hired, I rehearsed and it was on the second day of rehearsal I was fired. I don’t know why! Maybe I had a bad attitude. The director kept saying, ‘Watch Kirk [Cameron].

We take a look back at the key characters – human and otherwise – over the 11-year history of one of the biggest action movie spectaculars ever created. SHIA MAKES HIS MARK Original leading man Sam Witwicky, played by Shia LaBeouf, saw his character evolve from clueless adolescent to capable college student over the course of the first three films – Transformers (2007), Revenge of the Fallen (2009) and Dark of the Moon (2011).

Redemption ROUND

Mixed martial arts middleweight champion Robert Whittaker had a disappointing start to the year when he was forced to forfeit his title defence fight against Luke Rockhold at UFC 221. A debilitating bacteria infection in his stomach followed by a bout of chickenpox ruled him out of contention. His inability to uphold his title hit him where it hurts most. “It was a nightmare, an absolute nightmare,” the 27-year-old tells Foxtel magazine. “I had a staph infection but it was the antibiotics that caused me to have bugs in my stomach, which I had to be very cautious about. At the end of it is when I got chickenpox.” After a lengthy recuperation, Whittaker is now back and in fighting form – ready to prove his mettle in a long-awaited rematch with…

Names don’t come much bigger in Aussie basketball than Andrew Gaze. The current Sydney Kings coach enjoyed a decorated playing career that spanned two decades in the NBL in Australia, five Olympic Games, a US college stint with Seton Hall and two short, sharp interludes in the NBA. The latter included a magical piece of timing when Gaze landed at the San Antonio Spurs in 1998/1999 – the season the franchise won its first NBA championship. Heading towards the back end of his career, Gaze managed to secure a place on a Spurs roster that included superstars Tim Duncan, David Robinson and current Golden State Warriors coach Steve Kerr. During the lockout-shortened season, the affable local managed 19 games. His role on the team may have been relatively minor but, as…

DRAMA Strike a Pose N ew York City, 1987 and there’s an underground LGBT scene known as the ‘ballroom’ or ‘ball culture’ that’s at its peak.
