Oscars

THE Chase viewers were convinced an Oscar-winning actress appeared on the show - but can you guess who? Yesterday's instalment of the ITV game show saw players Malcolm, Michaela, Charlotte and Thomas take on The Vixen AKA Jenny Ryan . Contestant Michaela certainly got viewers talking on Twitter as soon as she spoke on camera. The player confessed that she'd like to use the money to put towards her wedding next year so that she could arrive at the venue in a Jurassic Park car. She managed to bag herself £8,000 after the first round, but fans were more interested in discussing something else on Twitter. Some thought that 37-year-old sales assistant from Hampshire looked a lot like American actress Jodie Foster, who has won Oscars for part in films The Accused and The Silence of the Lambs. One fan wrote: "Michaela is the love child of Jodie Foster and Elizabeth Moss!" Another cheekily joked: "Poundland Jodie Foster seat 2." Most read in TV …

Here’s a collection curated by The Associated Press’ entertainment journalists of what’s arriving on TV streaming services and music platforms this week. MOVIES — You have to admire the moxie of Netflix and director Ben Wheatley for taking on Daphne du Maurier’s “Rebecca,” which already has a masterpiece Alfred Hitchcock adaptation to its name. But even with the less than stellar reviews, the prospect of watching stunners Lily James and Armie Hammer fret around Manderley in period clothes is still just too alluring to deny. And if “Rebecca” doesn’t satisfy the need for voyeuristic beauty when it hits Netflix Wednesday, the streamer is also getting Todd Haynes’ “Carol” back in its ranks Thursday. — Following his critically acclaimed turn as activist Abbie Hoffman in Aaron Sorkin’s “The Trial of the Chicago 7,” Sacha Baron Cohen is returning to the character he made his name with: Borat.

If you don't watch your back backstage at "The Price is Right," with everything on the move – games, prizes, especially cars – and pushed into place, the price you pay just might be a limb. But despite the controlled chaos of CBS' oldest game show, "Sunday Morning" correspondent Lee Cowan found host Drew Carey just minutes before air as calm as he can be. "What kind of prep do you do?" Cowan asked, "None!" he laughed. "I don't do any prep. There's no prep. As soon as the door opens, I know just what to do, and I'm ready to go." Carey has made the show his own, despite the fact it had been on TV for 50 seasons. Bob Barker was the first host, starting back in 1972. Think about that: Richard Nixon was President, Jane Fonda was taking home her first Oscar, and Barker was giving away brand-new cars that cost less than $3,000. To this day, there are few places on TV, or anywhere else, where people can express such public displays of affection. Carey said, "I don't take it for …

This summer the meaning of "arriving in style" rose to new heights, as these cars were lifted to their parking places, for a new exhibit at the Museum of Modern Art in New York. The exhibit, "Automania," features nine vehicles, from the unique 1946 Cisitalia 202 GT, to more familiar cars like the Volkswagen Beetle, or the Airstream Land Yacht. Correspondent Serena Altschul said, "A car can be so many things to different people, you know – memories, nostalgia." "It's really remarkable when you think about the ways that cars can bring different kinds of audiences into a place like MoMA," said Andrew Gardner, one of the show's curators. "That's a really good feeling." The show features cars as art, and also art inspired by cars, like a painted hood by Judy Chicago. Gardner said, "I think she was really fascinated with the fact that cars were stereotypically male objects. But embedded in their form and a shape and a kind of sumptuous details of the cars was this very …
