Wild Bill brings us something I’d never have imagined from when I was first regularly watching ITV as a kid in the ’80s – first of all, it starts movie legend Rob Lowe, and secondly (and especially in the light of how they once treated Robocop at the time), this drama includes a fair bit […]

Bandersnatch is the latest addition to Charlie Brooker‘s Black Mirror stable, and with the trailer being released just yesterday, and with the end of the year approaching and time being limited, I was really hoping this would be pushed into early 2019, but no, it’s out now!

Static is the final of three Comedy Playhouse sitcoms and gets off to a bad start as one of the sitcoms where the ‘star’ can’t think of a name for his character, hence comedian Rob Beckett is ‘Rob’. He has quit his job in London. Why would anyone just quit a job? They don’t grow […]

The Scandalous Lady W apparently told the true story of Lady Seymour Worsley (Game Of Thrones and Hunger Games star Natalie Dormer), set in England, 1782, when a man’s wife was considred his property. Unfortunately, I also consider time a crucial property and I hate for it to be wasted, yet that’s precisely what happened […]

Omar (Riz Ahmed) works as […]
