DC Fandome – Reflection
Almost three weeks have now passed since the spectacular virtual event that was ‘DC Fandome’ (and we are a few days away from the second, less anticipated part of the event), and while I did initial reaction to all the major announcements and trailers that were released, I now want to do a reflection on […]
The New Mutants (2020) – Review
A 20th Century Picture, Written by Josh Boone, Knate Lee, Directed by Josh Boone.

My 2020 Emmy Nomination Predictions
Tomorrow the nominations for the 2020 Emmy Awards will be officially announced ahead of the ceremony in September, and due to the Covid-19 pandemic, the usual awards campaigns have not been run and therefore predictions are more difficult.

The Salisbury Poisonings (2020) – TV Review
Based on the shocking true events, this three part mini-series has proved a ratings sensation for the BBC (partly due to more people being home) and it is fully deserved. It takes fascinating and complex events in Salisbury in 2018 and turns it into really compelling TV. It’s something I still struggle to understand why […]

Now we are over 3 months in to the ‘lockdown’ due to Covid-19, a few more shows filmed in that period are popping up, and this is one of them. This is multiple short stories filmed over zoom, with an array of famous British actors taking on the roles and I have to applaud everyone […]
Britain’s Corona Virus Catastrophe: Did the Government Get It Wrong? Dispatches (2020) – TV Review
There will be numerous documentaries and films about this crisis in years to come, when we hopefully have defeated the virus and have the benefit of hindsight. However, it’s also necessary for documentaries to be made about the present day, and that is what happens here. This unbias but absolutely unflinching documentary lays clear the […]

It was already a well known fact that Jodie Comer was an incredible actress with a rapidly rising career, but this just further proves her versatility, talent, and maturity beyond her years.
