Last Day – The Dark The season finale of The Third Day begins with Helen finding Sam on the dock and questioning him over exactly what he’s doing there. Sam mentions Nathan being alive and calls himself the Father of Osea. Midway through talking, Mrs Martins arrives and reveals Jess has had a girl, which is a direct challenge to Sam’s authority and the reason everything is coming unraveled. Sam is unperturbed though, and brings Helen inside the house so she can see Nathan....

The Time It Takes Plot Synopsis For Nico and Lina, their 9 year relationship has hit rock bottom. The passion is gone, their interests in one another have dwindled and their time has run out. This essentially forms the crux of The Time It Takes, Netflix’s latest Spanish drama. With a split timeline jumping between the present and past, along with bitesize chapters, this show depicts a break-up both in-the-moment and in the days and weeks that pass....

Who Killed Angelica Petroni? One of the few genres that somehow manages to feel both wholly fresh and overly familiar, crime dramas have been a staple of the small screen for decades. From Midsomer Murders and Murder She Wrote to the more famous Sherlock Holmes and Poirot, there seems to be no end to the number of these on TV. Of course, because of the sheer amount of depth and options to choose from, it’s progressively harder to find those that really stand the test of time....

Episode Guide First Time Again JSS Thank You Here’s Not Here Now Always Accountable Heads Up Start to Finish No Way Out The Next World Knots Untie Not Tomorrow Yet The Same Boat Twice As Far East Last Day on Earth The sixth Season of Walking Dead returns for arguably its slowest season yet with an abundance of filler episodes and scenes that don’t move the plot forward. The first couple of episodes and the finale are both great but everything in between just feels so slow and pointless....

Episode Guide Episode 1 -| Review Score – 2/5 Episode 2 -|Review Score – 2/5 Episode 3 -|Review Score – 2/5 Episode 4 -|Review Score – 2/5 The Witcher: Blood Origin somehow manages to do the impossible. It produces a fantasy production worse than Rings of Power. While Willow and Wheel of Time have come close, it’s hard to know where to begin with Blood Origin. Advertising itself as a prequel to The Witcher, set 1200 years before the events involving Geralt of Rivia, The Witcher: Blood Origin feels like a box ticking exercise of how not to write fantasy, with a whole bunch of archetypal, cookie cutter characters thrown together to stop a globe-ending apocalypse before it’s too late....

The Murder Episode 2 of The Woman in the House Across the Street from the Girl in the Window starts with Anna heading up to the attic and looking over all her old art supplies. Her end-goal here is a light green pen, which she intends to bring over to Emma. Of course, that ‘s only so she has an excuse to chat to Neil again and pick up where they left off the night before....

Toothache: The Movie All week I’ve had raging toothache. It’s one of those horribly dull, throbbing pains that reverberate through your body every time you attempt to chew. Every moment is agony and you find yourself wishing for better times. Anyway, this anecdote leads nicely along to Thunder Force. Netflix’s latest superhero comedy (both words doing some serious heavy lifting) feels like a throbbing toothache you can’t get rid of. Across this 100 minute picture, Melissa McCarthy brings her usual comedic flair but much like Ghostbusters and Superintelligence, dials it up to 11 in a way that completely overpowers the script....

Corps We begin episode 1 of Tiny Pretty Things up on the rooftop as a man holding a white rose whispers something in ballerina Cassie’s ear. Then, he pushes her over the edge and watches as she falls to the ground below. We then cut to a Neveah rhythmically pounding her shoes on the ground. However, she’s interrupted by her teacher who tells her that Chicago have changed their mind and she’s being relocated....

Ho-min overhears their conversation and informs Seo-joon that Sung-yoon and Ji-woo have been long-time friends. The actor and his manager barge in as Ji-woo and Sung-yoon are still conversing as Seo-joon informs the brand’s design manager that he would be leaving with Ji-woo. She thanks him for his work and tells Ji-woo that she will catch up with him later. Seo-joon and Ji-woo go back to their house and the chef starts collecting his belongings from the house....

At work, Ji-woo is distracted and loses his focus from chores as he keeps looking at the door. Suddenly two guests appear at the restaurant and talk to the chef about being featured on a show about food. They claim that Yoo-ha asked them to visit the restaurant. Ji-woo calls the little girl to clarify the appointment and Yoo-ha forces him to talk to them about his appearance on the show....

From animators and artists through to level designers and QA testers, it’s the ground workers on these projects that deserve the plaudits and praise – not those running the show at the top. As a quick disclaimer, Hades and Half Life: Alyx are both missing from this list simply because we didn’t get around to playing them this year. With that in mind, here are our picks for the Top 10 Video Games Of 2020....

Chapter 6 Episode 6 of Tribes of Europa begins with Moses tortured by the Crows for information. Elja shows up with his weapon though, telling them all to back up. After killing one of the soldiers, he manages to hold the others up at gunpoint… but just like that the cube loses power. Moses and Elja race off, back on the road as Moses finally decides to come around to his way of thinking....

The Hit and Run After last week’s weaker episode, Truth Be Told returns with a better episode as the story finally starts moving forward. As I suspected, Owen is not the murderer and as we’re back to square one, we’re left wondering where Poppy will go next in her search for the real culprit. We start the episode with Poppy visiting Warren in prison. She tells him about her findings in regards to his father’s whereabouts that fateful night and Warren despairs, revealing that he got him shanked and believing the reason is to stop him from talking....

A Much-Improved Sequel TT Isle Of Man 2 is a frustrating but enjoyable game. One of the first trophies you’re likely to see ping is falling off your bike 50 times. I’ll admit I’m a terrible driver and back in 2018 I was woefully inept at this title, thanks in part to the handling and wobbly controls. This time around TT Isle Of Man returns for a welcome sequel that manages to improve on almost every aspect of the first game, changing the UI, adding a deeper career mode and tweaking the handling to make things feel a lot more robust while playing....
