After an excruciating wait of almost two years - TWO YEARS! - 24 finally returns for its seventh season next week. I've had the honour of seeing the first four hours of Day 7 and.. well... it's amazing. Read on for some trademark Tube Talk teasers - and if you're a spoilerphobe, go away NOW!

* CTU has been "recently disbanded" and, as we start the season, Jack is in Washington for a senate hearing into the organisation's unconventional and illegal methods.

* Shortly after his examination begins, Renee Walker (Annie Wersching), a Special Agent with the FBI, arrives to extract him.

* Jack is taken to FBI headquarters and told that they are dealing with a terrorist threat from a gang lead by Tony Almeida (Carlos Bernard).

* Jack is understandably in denial at first - after all, he watched Tony die - but then Renee shows him a recent photograph and informs him that she ordered the exhumation of Tony's body. It wasn't his.

* Meanwhile, President Taylor (Cherry Jones) is preparing to take the nation to war with Sangala over the genocide caused by General Juma's reign.

* Henry Taylor (Colm Feore), the First Gentleman, is looking into his son Roger's apparent suicide. Through a PI, he discovers that Roger's girlfriend Samantha received a payment of $400,000 just days after Roger's death - so starts to go off the books to investigate further.

* For the first couple episodes - and this is a theme that will recur throughout the season - we see a notably restrained Jack. In the wake of the senate hearings he faces pressure from the FBI to do everything by proper procedure. So that's no torturing of suspects, please. By episode three he's back on form though - and watch out for a spectacular high jump at the end of episode two.

* Other key FBI personnel to keep an eye on this season include Larry Moss, the Assistant Director in Charge (a real stickler for the rules); Janis Gold, who's the FBI's version of Chloe; and Sean, Janis's number two.

* Speaking of Chloe (Mary Lynn Rajskub), the good news is that she's back this season, along with Bill Buchanan (James Morrison). The pair are obviously no longer working for CTU, but they are working together. All is revealed in episode three.

* What exactly is the terrorist threat that Tony and his gang are scheming up? It involves something called a CIP device, which gives the bearer access to key US infrastructure - think water, power, Air Traffic Control.

* The dearly departed Teri Bauer is referenced, as is wayward daughter Kim (returning later in the season).

* Tony's "death" and subsequent resurrection are explained properly by the man himself - and thankfully, it is plausible.

* Deep Sky.

Episodes 1 - 4 have been leaked and apparently the person will be leaking some more.

Obviously I'm not going to say where, or promote piracy

Every year it happens, its nothing new but I think it was last year the person got jailed.

    • HONOR Robot Phone unveils first Cinematic Video at Shanghai International Film Festival by Steven Parker Global AI device ecosystem company HONOR announced on June 13 that its revolutionary HONOR Robot Phone made its professional imaging debut at the 28th Shanghai International Film Festival (SIFF), demonstrating the result of its mobile videography capabilities for the first time. As the official mobile photography and videography partner of the 28th Shanghai International Film Festival, HONOR empowers this premier cinematic event with cutting-edge mobile imaging technology. Marking the global debut of the first cinematic video it captured, Robot Phone breaks down the boundaries between mobile imaging and professional filmmaking, ushering in a new paradigm for the deep integration of technology and cinematic art. In the video published on HONOR’s official channel (above), Robot Phone was used byELLEMEN to capture cinematic video portraits for the SIFF jury members. With its exceptional stability and cinema-grade imaging capabilities, the device redefines the art of portrait filmmaking, faithfully reproducing the rich tonal gradations and nuanced color transitions associated with film photography. The result is a new level of visual sophistication, creating high-end cinematic imagery that seamlessly blends atmosphere with narrative tension. The video released for the Robot Phone showcases the powerful stabilization capabilities of its built-in gimbal system, delivering exceptionally smooth handheld camera movement while preserving full image quality. By minimizing reliance on electronic image stabilization, the device effectively avoids the image cropping and quality loss typically associated with digital stabilization methods. Representing an innovative leap in form factor, the HONOR Robot Phone features the industry's smallest titanium alloy gimbal, delivering ultra-precision, extreme flexibility, and superior stability. Driven by high-performance motors, the gimbal rises dynamically, breaking free from the physical limitations of traditional camera modules. Combined with advanced AI algorithms that enable intelligent object tracking and various movements with stable shots, the device significantly simplifies video creation and reshapes both the equipment choices and creative habits of modern users. Notably, the Robot Phone will be the first product that features the results of HONOR's strategic technological partnership with ARRI, the world-renowned designer and manufacturer of professional camera technology for cinematic storytelling. From Cannes to Shanghai, the HONOR Robot Phone continues to lead the mobile imaging industry into an entirely new stage of development. Moving forward, HONOR will leverage cutting-edge AI and mobile imaging technologies to unlock new creative possibilities and extend cinematic standards for visual expression from the world of high-end filmmaking to the next generation of content creators.

    • I'll wait for the root cause analysis. Looks like it's HP, Lenova, and certain configurations that are askew, hardly "all of windows." Time will tell.
    • Loading Topaz Photo AI freezes my system since this update...
    • I had issues with my NVME, it was running really slow (like 2/3 mb bandwidth) ... had to revert via System Restore and all is fine now.
