Perhaps the strongest episode from Series X so far, this episode has so much going for it.
There’s no escaping that this show is cappuccino witchcraft – airy and light and infused with 21st century trendiness.
Oh, Downton Abbey – how could you? You go through an entire world war and barely kill off a soul, and now you sacrifice the youngest and demurest of them all!
One week in and is Hunted the worthy successor to Spooks that we hoped for?
A bit more thought-provoking than the episode that preceded it, the second episode of Red Dwarf’s new series is ultimately a slightly mixed but entertaining affair.
If the opening episode restated the battle lines, this one provides a positively game-changing resolution that is guaranteed to shock.
The closing scenes, so different and yet so perfectly juxtaposed, are more than enough to assuage any fears that Homeland might have lost its way.
The second episode of The Paradise builds on the strengths of the first, but without necessarily rectifying its weaknesses.
Twenty-four years after the first series aired and over three years since Back to Earth was broadcast, Red Dwarf has returned.
Frustratingly generic, the first episode of BBC One’s new eight-part thriller Hunted marks a serious departure from form for almost everyone involved.
