	Description:		The drama series Keeping Faith set in Wales stars Eve Myles as Faith Howells, whose life is turned upside down when her husband Evan mysteriously disappears. The series first broadcast on S4C has proved a record-breaker on the BBC iPlayer. Award winning actor Kathleen Turner has starred in films like Body Heat, Romancing the Stone and is the voice of Jessica Rabbit. Now she's in a one woman cabaret style show called Finding My Voice singing songs from the Great American Song Book and telling stories from her life. A week ago a claim was filed in a court in Washington which stated that the journalist Marie Colvin was assassinated by the Assad regime in 2012. This is the first war crimes related case against Syria to reach court in the United States and is being brought by her sister Cat. Cat Colvin tells us about her fight to find out what really happened to her sister. On social media, anyone has the ability to create a persona that suits them.

Bella found the pressure of living up to the Stella persona too much, and she's just come back from an online hiatus.
