The One Show after nine years on the BBC sofa. But he had no idea just how well things would fall into place for him, until the pandemic hit last spring.The presenter has his eggs in many different baskets, what with his regular slot on Countryfile still at the forefront of his career.He has always enjoyed the outdoors lifestyle and being the son of a farmer, it seemed only natural.Which is why he decided to move his family - wife Nicola and children Luke and Molly - back to the Durham Dales after his mum Janice, had a nasty accident on their 100-acre farm back in July 2020.Janice and Matt's dad Michael, couldn't run it alone and after being left with a fractured tibia when she was knocked over by some large sheep, it was near enough impossible to keep things running smoothly.Never one to pass up an opportunity, Matt soon secured a commission and the Channel 4 documentary series Our Farm In The Dales, was born.He had many reasons for leaving The One Show, with one of them being to spend more time with his family, and he definitely got what he wanted.Of his exit, he told The Yorkshire Post last year: "When you get to a certain point in your life you start reflecting."I’d had that period in my life when I was so busy with The One Show – which was fantastic – but then you suddenly realise what makes you."The countryside has made me who I am.”He laughed: "There’s only ever been six months in my life when I haven’t had a flock of sheep."That’s what’s really important to me.

SATURDAY AM: Refresh for more analysis and chart  Before a big tentpole comes into the marketplace, there’s typically a lull at the box office, but it’s an even bigger lull when the major studios don’t have any new wide entries. Everyone is waiting for Warner Bros. The Batman and many sources tell me it’s bound easily for a $100M+ opening, in fact $115M+, and the advance ticket sales are there to prove that. This despite the 3-hour running time, and from what I hear (I haven’t seen it yet) is a more noir, detective story by Matt Reeves than all the action set pieces in a Christopher Nolan movie. iSpot shows Warner Bros. having spent already $28M+ in U.S. TV spots (that’s even a big number from that data agency’s POV) across such shows as the Winter Olympics, NFL, Good Morning America, NBA games and Big Brother: Celebrity Edition. Note, Warners’ hasn’t weighed in on these industry projections at the time of writing, but note, they’ll safely lowball. That said, no one sees it below $100M.

John Cena is one of the biggest names in WWE history.The wrestler turned Hollywood star has crossed over to the mainstream over the past few years, and he’s generally regarded as one of the best to step into a ring.However, for many years WWE fans loved to boo him as they grew tired of his clean-cut, babyface character and yearned for something different.The company never really took the plunge by turning him to the dark side, but Cena himself has admitted he always loved being able to get such a divisive reaction from the live crowds.Speaking in new WWE Network series Untold, he said: ‘Every time you see me come out, it’s like I’m shot out of a cannon.‘It’s because I’m ready, I’m ready to go, and that’s whether you’re telling me I suck or
