It looks like the rain isn’t going anywhere this weekend so we’ll be staying indoors and hibernating in front of the TV.
Luckily, you will be pleasantly entertained with dozens of shows and movies airing on the TV across the weekend.

Friday is finally here and we are so ready to forget about work and laze about on the sofa until Monday.

Luckily, tonight’s Graham Norton Show has one of the strongest lineups of all time so we’ll be pleasantly entertained for the night.

The music of the evening will be provided by former Fifth Harmony bandmember NORMANI, who will perform her new single Motivation.
The Graham Norton Show has been on air for over 10 years, if you can believe how fast that time went.
Some of the most hilarious and memorable TV moments and interviews in chat show history have taken place on the host's fluffy red couch.
Irish comedian and Eurovision presenter Graham has been on his summer holidays, and deserves the break, but the show will run from September until February this year and then from April until June.

Legendary talk show hosts Graham Norton and Alan Carr have signed on to be celebrity judges on RuPaul's Drag Race UK this year, and we're GAGGING with excitement.
The pair will appear as rotating resident judges every week, and will join RuPaul, Michelle Visage and a celebrity guest judge.
Both iconic hosts are major fans of the iconic show, which has been a global worldwide hit since it first aired back in 2009.
Let's not forget that Norton actually appeared on the original version of All Stars season two back in 2016.
He said he has been a fan of the show forever; "Becoming part of the Drag Race family makes me ridiculously happy! I can't wait to see what the UK drag queens bring to the party, but they better werk!"
In the video announcement on Twitter today, Graham joked "maybe this is what the UK's good at."
For the Drag Race UK grand finale, both Norton and Carr will appear on the judging panel.
Alan Carr met Ru-Paul when he appeared on his chat show Alan Carr's Chatty Man but has been a fan for years of the pop culture phenomenon.
"Wow! To be sat next to Michelle Visage and Mama Ru as a guest judge on possibly one of my all-time favourite shows EVER is a dream come true," he said.
"I can't wait to see what the UK Queens have got in store – it's going to be sickening! *does death drop*"
The Emmy award-winning show will be coming to BBC Three this year, it was announced in December.
Saoirse Ronan and Margot Robbie are hitting international screens in their roles as Queen Elizabeth I and Mary, Queen of Scots.
The 24-year-old Irish actress has just opened up about the hugely emotional experience of finally coming face-to-face with co-star Margot Robbie in costume.
Ronan was candid while visiting The Graham Norton Show, explaining that the duo were kept apart for weeks while they settled into their roles in the flick, Mary, Queen of Scots.
The actress explained: "Mary and Elizabeth never actually met so we took a bit of artistic license and lied about what really happened."
"We only met once in the film and because of that Margot and I stayed apart so we didn't know what each other looked like. When we finally met for the scene we cried. It was very emotional," she continued.
The Lady Bird actress also spoke about her time working with animals on the set of the period piece, which proved challenging.
"The horse I had to ride had starred with Wonder Woman and was very good looking and he knew it," she said. "He just wouldn't do anything, he wouldn't move."
"Then I realised that every time someone shouted 'rolling' he would do a little cough. He was actually nervous!" she added.
Ronan plays the titular Mary, who was Queen of France at just 16 and widowed at 18, and defied pressure to remarry and returns to her native Scotland to try and take the throne.
But Scotland and England fall under the rule of her cousin Elizabeth I, who was played by Margot Robbie.
Speaking of the relationship between Mary and Elizabeth on ITV's This Morning, Ronan said;
"Elizabeth, is this shell of her former self – she’s completely not human, Mary is bloody and dirty, it’s two women meeting who have been pushed to the very limit."
"We asked for it (the separation), it was a cool experiment to stay apart, we didn't know what the other person looked like… we were revealed to each other the shock of seeing the visual of what they looked like," she continued.
"How we felt as actors after three weeks of being kept apart was how Mary and Elizabeth would have felt, it gave us so much adrenaline and emotion."
Westlife have officially made their long-awaited return to our lives, thank the gods, but it wasn't all sunshine and rainbows back in the day for the boyband.
The band stopped by The Graham Norton Show last week to perform their brand new single, Hello My Love, but Nicky Byrne revealed some spicy drama.
According to the radio DJ and member of the group, Liam Gallagher told the band to "f*ck off" the first time they met. Ouch, someone take the lads to the burns unit STAT.
The group's new single is their first release in almost a decade, and it was penned by pop legend Ed Sheeran.
Hello My Love went straight to number one on the iTunes on Thursday evening, and Westlife even got a congratulatory message from ex-band member Brian McFadden, despite rumours of bad blood.
Hello My Love has been popular with fans, but frequently compared to Sheeran’s hit Castle On A Hill as opposed to “your typical Westlife song”.
Nicky Byrne, Kian Egan, Mark Feehily and Shane Filan will embark on their Twenty Tour this summer, playing two huge gigs in Croke Park in July.
Kian reiterated his opinion that their fans would be “taken aback” by their new sound, according to Metro UK; “Good songs are good songs, it doesn’t matter whether it’s a Westlife song or not.”
The Twenty Tour is their fastest-selling ever, selling a whopper 400,000 tickets within 48 hours of release.
Westlife will finish their tour with two massive dates at Croke Park in Dublin this July, which had tickets flying out the door.
The four members shared a photo which appeared to have been taken inside GAA Headquarters before the tour was confirmed, teasing their Croke Park gigs to excited fans.
The Twenty Tour is the boybands' fastest selling tour of all time, it sold an INSANE 400,000 tickets in just 48 hours.
In other news, Westlife have dismissed consistent rumours that Brian McFadden is to rejoin the band, commenting that: “Everyone is talking about this except us.”
It's Robbie Williams vs Take That drama all over again. At least we're getting a brand new chune and a tour?
We don't even know if we're ready for the explosion of Westlife fever which will ensue from their single, prepare yourselves gals.
Hollywood actor Chris Pine paid Graham Norton a visit the other day, and boy did he cause a stir, much like his role in the new flick Outlaw King, in which Pine shared more than a little of himself.
Norton, never one to beat around the bush, launched into the talk show by addressing the fan frenzy surrounding the 38-year-old Star Trek actor’s role as Robert the Bruce in the new Netflix film.
To put it bluntly, Chris Pine has a scene with FULL FRONTAL NUDITY. Yup, you read that right.
What a time to be alive.
“There’s a scene in the film where I bare the full Monty and, yeah, that seemed to get a lot of attention,” Pine comments. Attention is one word for it, obsession is another. Fans have lost their minds over his crown jewels, and they aren’t afraid to let him know about it either.
Rami Malek and Sally Field were also present as guests on the couch, and they most definitely enjoyed themselves reading the tweets sent in about Chris Pine.
Sally Field, being the hero that she is, schooled Chris Pine on the fact it's been pretty much entirely women who have been baring all for years, hence why the world is freaking out when a man does it.
Sally Field schools Chris Pine on why the world is so fascinated by his penis https://t.co/WsU5bTYU6d
While speaking to The Hollywood Reporter earlier, the actor stated that the nudity was necessary to convey that his 14th century character in Outlaw King was still just a living thing underneath it all.
"There's so much beheading in this, and yet people want to talk about my penis," he continued, while at the Toronto Film Festival.
"Underneath the Emperor's clothes is a muling, puking little kid who was once upon a time just rolling around in the mud and a child. The idea that underneath every prime minister, and president, and ruling leader that we give power to is someone that is just an animal…”
We wonder if director David Mackenzie has read some of those tweets? Pine’s name actually translates to a vulgar French term for male genitalia, ironic enough as that is.
It seems like realism is what they were going for, but Pine’s fans may have missed that notion…
Outlaw King premieres on Netflix on the 9th of November, prepare yourselves ladies and gentlemen.
