Entitled ‘I Kissed a Girl”, this episode is going to be both action packed and full of emotion for cheerleader Santana who will come out to her family. But there’s plenty more… here’s the scoop!

Election Deception: This first tidbit might knock the wind out of you, because we know who wins the Senior Class Presidency- but we ain’t telling! After stuffing the ballot box in favour of Kurt, Rachel tattles to Principal Figgins that Brittany is bribing students for votes.

Hummel vs Sue: Meanwhile, Congressional elections, which pit Sue up against Kurt’s dad Burt, are simultaneously taking place in the halls of McKinley High, the results of which take “a very surprising twist” according to co-EP Ian Brennan.

Beiste vs. Sue: For those of you who got excited about Beiste finally scoring a beau, then got unexcited by the gross prospect of him also being Sue’s “booty call,” don’t worry: our beloved Beiste isn’t going down without a fight.

Santana’s Coming out Tour: Finally, we know Santana will have a heart-to-heart with her parents about her sexuality. Apparently she’ll confide her secret in Sue, Becky and her grandmother.

In an attempt to go back his ‘normal’ life. Michael visits Anton, a carpenter who moonlights as a medium to try and extract Anna’s spirit from his body.

America’s best legal drama returns with new episodes as The Good Wife’s Season Three makes its Australian debut.

Julianna Margulies reprises her Golden Globe and Emmy Award winning role as Alicia Florrick: a devoted wife turned independent mother, reeling from a very public infidelity scandal involving her husband Peter (Chris Noth). the State’s Attorney of Chicago.

The past two seasons have seen Alicia struggle with career and motherhood, re-enter the work force and discover that her husband hadn’t revealed the real extent of his wondering eye.

Now emancipated from her unsuccessful marriage, the last time we left our title character she had given in to her desires with Will (Josh Charles), a partner at her law firm, and college sweetheart, following a tequila induced celebration.

Another brilliant addition to the cast is Alan Cumming. Season Three sees Cumming’s character, the straight-talking Eli Gold take up a corner office at Lockhart/Gardner heading up a new crisis management division. Teaming up with firm investigator Kalinda (Archie Panjabi). they quickly become a force to be reckoned with.

Tune in to see if it Alicia was wise to mix business with pleasure*.

La Grenouille, is involved in the deal, Director Shepard is adamant that they catch him in the act of purchasing the weapons system, as she had spent months tracking his movements. But when the seller dies of a heart attack, the team is forced to improvise, sending Ducky in as the seller.

Network TEN is pleased to put months of media whispers to rest and announce that TEN’s own Kathryn Robinson and meteorologist Magdalena Roze, will complete its upcoming Breakfast show line-up. 

Joining already confirmed hosts Paul Henry and Andrew Rochford, the team of four, together will deliver a breakfast offering that true to the TEN brand, promises to be spontaneous, unexpected and cheeky.  

Network TEN’s Head of News and Current Affairs, Anthony Flannery says “The chemistry between these four personalities is exactly what we are after for Breakfast. It was obvious from the beginning of auditions that they have a dynamic with a difference; unpredictable but the perfect start to the day.”

One of TEN’s most versatile and popular presenters, Kathryn anchors across the entire TEN News schedule and her sharp wit, smart journalistic sense and ability to think on her feet have led to a regular spot on The Project’s desk.  

Kathryn began her career as a finance trader before gaining her masters in journalism and settling on a future in the field of news and current affairs. With over a decade of experience in front of the camera, she has led live news coverage from many key national and international events, including last year’s Royal wedding and the Delhi Commonwealth Games. 

Mum to four-year-old twins Sam and Lucy, Kathryn is more than accustomed to the early starts required for her new role and on her appointment she says:”I’m thrilled to join Paul and Andrew at the Breakfast table. TEN is committed to offering our viewers a fresh start to  the day and I’m delighted to be involved. Thankfully I’m familiar with early mornings; I’ll need to be on the ball to keep these two in check!” 

Magdalena joined TEN in September 2011 as meteorologist and journalist for the National Weekend News and will be Breakfast’s resident weather expert. A self-proclaimed weather nerd, she completed a tertiary degree in Atmospheric Science, winning both the Australian Meteorological and Oceanographic Society Prize and the Biophysical Environments Prize. Magdalena’s bubbly personality and perfect academic record ensured roles at The Weather Channel and National Geographic.  

Magdalena’s warm and engaging on-screen presence, matched with her ability to inject weather reporting with personality, makes her the perfect fourth addition to TEN’s Breakfast team. She brings a wealth of meteorology experience and has built a loyal following of viewers on TEN. 

Magdalena said of her appointment, “I’ve had such a fantastic journey at TEN so far and now I’m really excited to enter brand new territory with Breakfast. I live and breathe the weather and, while Paul Henry doesn’t believe me yet, in a country as large and diverse as Australia, there is some kind of extraordinary weather event happening in some part of the nation every day!”
