Marvel has indisputably dominated the movie industry for the past decade and with the next few years of the Marvel Cinematic Universe already mapped out, there seems to be no signs of it slowing down. 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.

Poor Rae, who’s been through so much, seems not to be coping terribly well with Finn’s … >
With no-one left to trust, Jo Gillespie is in the final stages of finding out who killed her husband. It seems like everyone is a suspect – they’re all acting shifty, that’s for sure, which is where ITV’s promising drama seems to lose its heart. Sheridan Smith’s Gillespie is still strong, but with a supporting … >
With its big sci-fi concepts, questions of consciousness, and sexy robots, Humans can invariably bring out the Sunday night philosopher in you. Especially when you ponder age-old Asimovian questions such as ‘where is the line that separates AI from human consciousness?’ And, at what point do you mark the definition between £20,000 electro-sex-doll and someone … >
Ramping up the drama with only two episodes left of this explosive third season, The Syndicate features closure for some and continued emotional rollercoasters for everyone else this week. “Nick Harrison was shot last night. He’s in a pretty bad way. The shot hit an artery and he’s lost a lot of blood,” explains DI … >
Oh come on, My Mad Fat Diary! Rae doesn’t deserve this. She deserves a nice cup of tea and a cupcake and for everything to go rather quite a lot better than everything does in this episode. After last week’s car crash, Chloe’s parents ask Rae not to visit her in hospital, because what Rae … >
