If you don’t know who Emperor Philipa Georgiou is and you never watched a minute of the pre-32nd century episodes of Star Trek: Discovery, then I can pretty confidently say that Section 31 is not the film for you. While the film does offer a pretty quick rehash on Georgiou’s history (as well as some […]
There are a number of mental leaps one needs to make whilst watching Prime Target, the new thriller from AppleTV+, but the chief one is that a young maths graduate student at Cambridge would not only be able to deduce the proper theorem that could, ostensibly, be used as a key to unlock all digital […]
And just like that – okay, after a three year wait – Severance is back! Thank Kier. And what a delightful way to throw us back into the world of Lumon, Innies, Outies (of whom we saw next to nothing this week), and Macrodata Refinement. And, I would be remiss not to mention, some absolutely […]
Now that was the kind of episode I’ve been waiting for over this last uneven string of storytelling. Sure, it was the finale so the series was able to really pull out all the stops (and definitely blew its CGI budget), but this was a series (season?) finale that managed to pull together the remaining […]
If I could have one wish in this new year, it would be that all television series start treating their episodes like actual episodes of a TV series and not just a single act break in a longer film. Because man was I annoyed at the close of this week’s episode – the penultimate episode […]

Since his daughter, Flora (Rosanna Adams) was killed in the bombing of Pan Am Flight 103 on 21st December 1988, Doctor Jim Swire (Colin Firth) has led a campaign to find out the truth of what happened and to see those responsible brought to justice. It’s a campaign that has taken many turns, as the […]
This week’s Skeleton Crew didn’t skimp on the CGI set pieces (that escape of the ship from the jaws of the techno crab metal crushing thing was pretty cool to see), but it excelled in an area that the series has been lacking in past installments: focusing on the interpersonal character beats at the heart […]
It has been eight years since the Brookmans last appeared on TV screens. They return once more for a Christmas Special, this time with the children all grown up. Pete and Sue (Hugh Dennis and Claire Skinner) have downsized to a terrace house and are preparing for their children’s return for Christmas lunch in November. […]
“Joy to the World” is the second Christmas special of the Disney era of Doctor Who. This Christmas-set adventure sees The Doctor team up with Derry Girls/Bridgerton star Nicola Coughlan. Joy Almondo (Coughlan) books into a hotel in London on Christmas Day 2024. Her simple stay escalates quickly when a Silurian hotel manager and a […]
