Gogglebox returned to screens on Friday night with a treat for fans in the form of an appearance from Ellie's new baby son alongside his mum and aunt Izzi. And the sisters were left in stitches when he pooed and broke wind while on the sofa with them.
The little boy made his first appearance on the show earlier this summer. And as the Channel 4 hit returned for a new series, Ezra was on the sofa too.
The baby - dressed in adorable khaki trousers and a camel top and bib for his TV appearance - was seen resting on mum Ellie's knee as she chatted to sister Izzi about some unusual noises he was making. "I heard it gurgle up", Izzi commented.

"Oh yeah! He's definitely pooing," Ellie said - as the sound of Ezra breaking wind could clearly be heard. The sisters laughed as Ellie asked her son: "Is that funny? Does that feel nice, Ezra? Shall we go give you back to daddy now?"
Later in the episode, Ezra returned as his mum and aunt mused over what babies thought about the breath of grown-ups. Izzi asked: "Can you smell my tea breath?" with Ellie responding: "He's got milk breath!"

Tom Sandoval appears to be absolutely allergic to the high road, as he responded to Rachel Leviss—former friend and affair-mate—blocking him on Instagram by…talking smack about her.To catch you up: Yesterday, September 12, was Leviss's birthday, and Sandoval commented on her most recent post at the time, "Happy Birthday, Rachel, I really hope ur finding peace and happiness. Miss u friend.” Kind of a weird thing to say publicly (coulda been a DM, no?) but not the worst sentiment. Leviss, though, wasn't interested in any interaction with the man who cheated on with her, and blocked him, then posting evidence of the block to Instagram Stories.Mere hours later, Sandoval responded, telling , "Obviously, I think it's a little immature and petty."

Christopher Vourlias When U.K. writer-director Jonathan Glazer approached Polish cinematographer Łukasz Żal about “The Zone of Interest,” a provocative Holocaust drama adapted from a 2014 novel by Martin Amis, he had a bold proposition for the film, which centers on the domestic life of an Auschwitz commandant and his family living in the shadow of the notorious concentration camp. What if, Glazer suggested, they shoot the scenes inside the Höss family home without a single camera on set?

As if to come to the aid of her national cinema after the debacle that was Roman Polanski’s The Palace, Poland’s Agnieska Holland, soon to turn 75, restores some of her homeland’s cultural dignity with a devastating exposé that angrily, and quite brilliantly, questions its humanity and political integrity. At 144 minutes, and in black and white, it is not exactly a Trojan horse, and its moral rigor does not come with a spoonful of sugar. But Green Border earns every second of that running time, and with a focus and energy that belies its directors age. Awards-wise, this may prove to be the international feature to beat.
