I don’t know where Negatus got those sweet sailboat pyjamas in this week’s episode of Yonderland, but boy do I wish I did: as he and his team face a vicious downsizing, at least he’s doing it in style. This week, Nick the Stick celebrates his 400th birthday by getting thoroughly plastered with Elf and … >
Last week’s opening episode of The Outcast focused on the events that led to Lewis Aldridge becoming a social outcast, after the tragic events surrounding his mother’s death. This concluding part picks up the story two years later as Lewis, now released from prison, settles back into ordinary life. “Welcome home, Lewis,” Tamsin Carmichael (Daisy … >
It’s the second episode of Marvel’s Agent Carter and we might have already hit a slighty stumbling block. It’s still an absolute joy to watch, the characters are all on point and it’s visually impressive, but there’s something lacking in the plot department.

Marvel’s TV productions – though popular – haven’t managed the same level of success. Netflix might have hit the ground … >
The brave Debbie of Maddox (and the many idiots she finds herself entangled with) return for a second of Yonderland – and what a triumphant return it is. ‘Panic On The Streets Of Yonderland’ begins with Mackenzie Crook (The Office) as an older gentleman who seems to know something fairly significant about Debbie’s past. Indeed, … >
Smart, glossy, engaging (and that’s just the cast), Humans is great drama, but there are a lot of questions still to be answered, and Episode 5 isn’t shy about asking a few more. So this review may be bit question-mark heavy, if that’s alright? See, I’ve started already. The most nagging question might be ‘What … >

Ten years ago the people of London suffered a tragic and senseless loss when, on Thursday 7 July 2005, terrorists set off four bombs throughout Central London, killing 52 people.
