As CBBC’s Wizards Vs Aliens approaches the end of its first series, the show poses an ethical conundrum.
‘With All My Heart’ has far more going on than just the ‘puppet queen’ as Mordred receives strong focus too.
It should be a rule cut into the concrete of the community centre: No one is ever as nice as they appear.
‘I’ll Fly Away’ goes some way towards patching up the seemingly irreparable damage done by last week’s near-debacle of an episode.
There’s a different kind of dread that suffuses Episode 2 of The Secret of Crickley Hall.
Well, that’s it. Sam Hunter has pouted her last pout.
‘An Origin Story’ is a striking episode that really focusses on the characters and tells a compelling story.
Always a bit in love with the period it deplores for its seediness and bigotry, The Hour knows that the past is another country.
Although the episode promises more heartbreak for our hero, it also brings a renewed sense of purpose.
