We all know how tedious supermarket shopping can be. Stocking up on toilet roll and bread is never going to be a thrill-fest but happily there are certain aisles that can bring a smile to our face. One such aisle is the ice cream one and imagine our excitement at noticing a new flavour of Ben and Jerry’s ice cream called Baked Alaska.

This new naughty treat is described as “vanilla ice cream” (yum) “with marshmallow swirls” (yummier) “and white chocolatey polar bears” (yummiest!) White chocolate is a much more delicate taste than its darker counterparts and can get overwhelmed by stronger flavours, but here it assumes centre stage in the form of polar bears – woohoo! Ben and Jerry’s have long seemed like the more imaginative, weird option compared to Haagen Dazs’ more sophisticated and adult image, yet with such novel and tasty ways to scoff ice cream – who cares how it’s packaged or advertised? Just get stuck in!

Fans of legal dramas are in luck as US import Shark returns tonight for its second season (Five, 10pm). Shark follows top prosecutor Sebastian Stark, as played by Hollywood star James Woods, as he leads his team of bright young things to courtroom success. The show is a glossy affair, with the Los Angeles location adding plenty of sunshine and skyscraper skylines, but the gruesome crimes and tough law enforcement adds a rougher edge to proceedings.

Woods is on fine form as Shark, channeling his easy charm and likeability into a character that is ruthless, uncompromising and far from your conventional hero. In many ways, he is reminiscent of Hugh Laurie’s titular character House – a sharp mind that refuses to be tempered by society and with underlings looking to him for career guidance. Tonight Shark returns to investigate a murder of a movie studio executive that ends up leading to the Russian mafia.

To catch up on all the Shark gossip, head on over to the Five website.

All has been pretty quiet on the Nelly front for the past few years, but the rapper returns in some style with his new single, Party People, featuring The Black Eyed Peas’ Fergie. This is the first track to be released from his forthcoming Brass Knuckles album and sees the Hot In Here hitmaker back on top form. With its catchy hook and uptempo beat, fans are already eager for it to hit their local clubs.

Taking a peek at the music video (below) Fergie looks stunning, channeling a Moulin Rouge! vibe with her trapeze swinging, while Nelly looks like he’s been clocking some serious hours in the gym. The album isn’t released until June 23rd in the UK, but if you want to be first in line, pre-order a copy from play.com for only £8.95, until then enjoy the video.

The BBC is clearly determined to get their money’s worth out of star Graham Norton. The cheeky chappie is not only hosting I’ll Do Anything, the search for musical theatre performers to fill the roles of Nancy and Oliver in a new West End production of Oliver!, every Saturday night, but also returns to his chat show on BBC 2 tonight at 9pm. This twelve week run kicks off with the Irish host getting to grips with film actor Kevin Bacon and the Hollywood legend that is Tony Curtis. Swedish pop star Robyn will be performing her new single Who’s That Girl? (isn’t that an 80s Madonna song?) and as always we can expect the outrageous antics that made the show such a hit back on Channel 4.

For those of you that really love the show, why not nab yourself some tickets to go see Graham grill celebrities? If you’re able to get down to the London Studios on the South Bank and are free on Wednesdays, then visit the Standing Room Only website for further information on how you could be in the studio audience. For the rest of us, relive some of Graham’s most naughty moments on the BBC official website.

After the UK and Stateside success of Katherine Heigl’s 27 Dresses, it seems that Hollywood might have finally regained its passion for passion, with another rom-com set to delight audiences on general release this weekend. They proved a winning combination in 2003’s How to Lose a Guy in 10 Days, so Hollywood stars Kate Hudson and Matthew McConaughey have reunited for Fools Gold. The film is a mixture of high adventure, goofy comedy and playful romance and sees the perma-tanned pair cavorting about in very little clothes – a perk for fans of both stars!

McConaughey plays Benjamin ‘Finn’ Finnegan, a treasure hunter whose obsession with striking gold ruined his marriage to Hudson’s Tess, yet the pair are thrown together again as clues for the elusive 18th Century Queens Dowry promise untold riches. Also on the hunt is Finn’s nemesis played by one of Britain’s reliable bad guys for hire, Ray Winstone. The film is frothy fluff full of sun, surf and silliness but for those of you depressed by the gloomy weather and in need of a romantic getaway, why not?

The trailer is below, while for further information visit the film’s official site.

Leona Lewis really is a sensation. Not content with being the first female to score a US number one single since Kim Wilde 21 years ago, the X Factor winner has also nabbed the top of the US album charts with her debut disc Spirit. The album sold over 200,000 copies on its first week of release in the States, with the former number one Troubadour by George Gait selling a paltry 59,000 copies in comparison. Talk about blowing the competition away.

This new feat from the former receptionist sees her become the first British solo star to earn the Billboard top spot since Rod Stewart did so in 2006. Fancy another dazzling Leona statistic? How’s about that the album has shifted over 2.5 million copies internationally in the last six months. Congrats to Leona and her team for insuring some serious worldwide success for a young British starlet and to the X Factor for producing someone we can be proud of. Not much pressure for last season’s winner Leon Jackson, eh?

For those of you that have fond memories of John Fashanu shouting “awooga!” (what DID that mean?), Ulrika Jonsson flirting with the muscle men and the ’scary’ Wolf barking at kids in the audience, its good news as Gladiators is returning! The TV show that proved popular Saturday night ITV entertainment back in the early 90s is being resurrected by Sky One with a whole new crop of gladiators and new challenges.

Over the course of the series due to start next month, 32 competitors will take on the mighty gladiators over a number of physical challenges with the eventual series winner walking away with £50,000 for their troubles. Sky One has already announced that another former footie star will be co-hosting, this time Ian Wright as accompanied by Kirsty Gallagher. The satellite station is solidly stepping up its promotion of the show, with this clip below a tasty teaser of all the sweaty combat that’s to come. So take a look and pick which toned behemoth you’re the most scared of and with names such as Tempest, Inferno and Spartan they’re really ramping up the fear factor!

It was the game we were all waiting for and since its UK release last Friday, Mario Kart Wii has become the the most successful first party Nintendo game ever. The game has also been crowned the eighth biggest launch ever in the UK, selling more than the other five Mario Wii games combined, knocking Gran Turismo 5: Prologue down the sales charts. Wow!

Mario Kart Wii sees the likes of long-time Nintendo staples such as Italian plumber Mario, his brother Luigi, Toad and Wario race one another in places such as volcanoes and like past versions, also includes a battle option where players combat one another. The game, which has been a firm favourite with fans of racing games for years, even harks back to its cherished past with races from former formats included in this latest incarnation.

Stocks are said to be low at many stores, so be quick to grab yourself a copy by ordering online from game.co.uk for £34.99.

It was all change at the top of the UK box office last weekend, with the Las Vegas gambling film 21 nabbing the top spot. The film, starring Kate Bosworth and Kevin Spacey, had performed well in the US and with over £1.6 million earned in three days, it’s repeating its success on this side of the pond as well. Katherine Heigl rom-com 27 Dresses fell to number three with feel-good Brit film Son of Rambow holding steady at the number two spot.

Despite plenty of press attention, George Clooney couldn’t inspire his sports comedy Leatherheads to the top, with the film coming in at a disappointing number six. Other new entries in the top ten include the Rolling Stones documentary Shine A Light at nine (the soundtrack is also performing well in the UK album charts) and the creepy Pathology starring Heroes tottie Milo Ventimiglia at number ten.
