Il Tempo: Svelata la giuria del serale finale di Amici: ecco tutti i nomi grazie agli indizi
Il mistero è risolto. Secondo quanto apprende l'Adnkronos, la giuria del serale di "Amici 25" sarà composta da Alessandro Cattelan, Gigi D'Alessio, Elena D'Amario e Cristiano Malgioglio. Si chiude così il toto-nomi che per settimane ha infiammato i social, con ipotesi che andavano da Irama a Emma, da Elisa a Rossella Brescia. A confermare l'indiscrezione anche gli indizi che i social del programma hanno seminato per stuzzicare la curiosità del pubblico. Dopo una prima serie di indizi più generici - un collezionista di modellini d'aereo, un amante di New York, un portafortuna di SpongeBob e un elefantino da Nuova Delhi - una seconda ondata di dettagli ha permesso di delineare con certezza la formazione. Gli ultimi quattro indizi, infatti, sono stati decisivi: una borsetta rossa, chiaro riferimento allo stile iconico di Cristiano Malgioglio; l'uncinetto, hobby che la ballerina Elena D'Amario usa per alleggerire la tensione; i cavalli, grande passione di Alessandro Cattelan; e infine, le scarpe bianche e nere, che rimandano a quelle indossate da Gigi D'Alessio il 14 febbraio 2011 durante la sua esibizione al Radio City Music Hall di New York.
La formazione a quattro, con l'inedito ingresso di Cattelan e D'Alessio al fianco dei riconfermati D'Amario e Malgioglio, si preannuncia come una delle grandi novità di questa edizione. La prima puntata del serale del programma di Maria De Filippi verrà registrata giovedì e andrà in onda sabato in prima serata su Canale 5, ponendo fine a ogni speculazione.
The jury for the final evening of Amici has been revealed: here are all the names thanks to the clues.
The mystery is solved. According to Adnkronos, the jury for the evening of "Friends 25" will be made up of Alessandro Cattelan, Gigi D’Alessio, Elena D’Amario, and Cristiano Malgioglio. This ends the “toto-names” game that for weeks had inflamed social media, with guesses ranging from Irama to Emma, Elisa to Rossella Brescia. The indiscretion was also confirmed by the clues that the program’s social media accounts had sown to pique the public’s curiosity. After a first series of more general clues - a collector of miniature airplanes, a lover of New York, a lucky charm from SpongeBob, and an elephant from New Delhi - a second wave of details allowed the formation to be definitively outlined. The last four clues were decisive: a red handbag, a clear reference to the iconic style of Cristiano Malgioglio; the crochet hook, a hobby that ballerina Elena D’Amario uses to relieve tension; horses, a great passion of Alessandro Cattelan; and finally, white and black shoes, which refer to those worn by Gigi D’Alessio on February 14, 2011, during his performance at the Radio City Music Hall in New York.
The four-person lineup, with the unprecedented entry of Cattelan and D’Alessio alongside the confirmed D’Amario and Malgioglio, is expected to be one of the major innovations of this edition. The first episode of the evening program hosted by Maria De Filippi will be recorded on Thursday and will be broadcast on Saturday evening on Channel 5, putting an end to all speculation.

Martin Clunes reveals ‘weight of responsibility’ playing Huw Edwards in new TV drama
Actor Martin Clunes has opened up about the “weight of responsibility” that came with portraying disgraced former BBC presenter Huw Edwards in a hard-hitting new TV drama.
Clunes takes on the lead role in Power: The Downfall of Huw Edwards, a two-part series charting the dramatic collapse of the once-trusted broadcaster.
Edwards, who was born in Bridgend and raised in Llangennech near Llanelli, spent decades as one of the most recognisable faces on the BBC.
But Clunes admits stepping into his shoes — so soon after the real-life events — was a daunting prospect.
“It’s not straightforward,” he said, reflecting on taking on the role.

“There is a responsibility,” he said, adding that portraying a real person at the centre of such a high-profile scandal required a careful approach.
Rather than attempting a straight impersonation, Clunes said he focused on capturing the essence of Edwards’ on-screen presence.
“I didn’t want to do an impression,” he explained, instead aiming to reflect the calm authority viewers associated with the veteran newsreader.
The drama explores how that trusted public image contrasted with a private life that was beginning to unravel behind the scenes.
Clunes suggested the series goes beyond the headlines, looking at the human story behind the scandal.
“It’s about the person behind it,” he said.
He also acknowledged that the speed of the production adds another layer of pressure, with the events still fresh in the public’s mind.
“People will have their own views,” he noted, as the programme prepares to revisit one of the most talked-about media scandals in recent years.
Despite the subject matter, Clunes indicated the drama avoids sensationalism, focusing instead on telling the story with care.
The casting has already drawn significant attention, with early images showing a striking transformation into the former newsreader.
Best known for long-running roles on British television, Clunes now takes on one of the most high-profile and sensitive parts of his career.
For viewers in Wales, the story is likely to resonate particularly strongly given Edwards’ roots and long-standing presence on national screens.
Power: The Downfall of Huw Edwards will air on 24 March on Channel 5 and its streaming service My5.
