‘This is a good idea with bad possibilities,’ one of the principal characters in BBC Three’s new pre-apocalyptic drama The Fades announces at the beginning of this opening episode, and it’s a fair summing up.
BBC Three have released a set of promotional photos for the cast of their new fantasy horror series, The Fades, which begins later this month.
BBC Three have released two photos from the filming of their new fantasy horror series, The Fades, which begins later this month.
Daniel Kaluuya (Skins, Psychoville) and Iain De Caestecker (River City, Coronation Street) play Mac and Paul in The Fades, writer Jack Thorne’s new fantasy horror series, coming to BBC Three this autumn.
Last time, we were discussing the logic and challenge of producing a sitcom that has more sit than com. In this, the final episode of Psychoville’s second series, that trend continues.
When is a sitcom not a sitcom? When the Venn diagram of situation to comedy is balanced heavily in favour of the non-funny bits? This certainly seems to be the case with Psychoville as it nears the end of its second series.
Nobody’s safe. Anyone can die. There is no ‘main’ cast. And nobody is who they first appear to be.
The weird and wonderful world of Psychoville returns to BBC Two in May for a brand new series to fright and delight in equal measure, taking mystery and intrigue to new heights.
Three episodes into Series 2 and Psyschoville shows absolutely no sign of slowing down, with a healthy lack of respect for its own cast of characters, meaning that anybody runs the risk of being bumped off to further the story along.
Now that it’s been firmly established that more people than you might have expected survived the events at the end of Series 1, things are settling into the routine (well, as routine as it ever gets around here) of ensuring that this time round, no-one is safe from a grisly dispatch.
