He shrugs them off one by one, like something ripped right from Dragonball Z, as Shin eventually turns his attention to Mun.

Joie De Vivre We begin episode 6 of Tiny Pretty Things with the kids all gathering together moments after Cassie falls from the roof. All of them decide to concoct a similar story as they reinforce that whatever happened was an accident…but was it? Back in the present, auditions continue as they all soon learn that 3 students are going to dance in a music video.

Elko Diner The second season of Titans has been quite the tumultuous ride. While the conflict with Deathstroke has been fantastic and the menace surrounding his character well written, the second half of the story has seen this sidelined in favour of a few sub-plots that haven’t quite reached the same heights. With Kory torn about her home life and the different Titans torn over what happened to Jericho, this week’s episode finally sees this start to be put to bed in favour of a final push for the climax to this plot....
From Moscow, With Love Episode 1 of To The Lake wastes absolutely no time introducing us to this inhospitable world and filling it with a heavy dose of paranoia and urgency. There’s definitely shades of Walking Dead Season 1 here along with echoes of 28 Days Later. While there isn’t much in the way of zombie action (at least not yet anyway), there’s a steady dose of tension rising. All of this begins with a brief shot of a delirious, blood-stained man stumbling through the woods....
With so much talk around doping in sport and the highly anticipated Icarus doping documentary landing on Netflix next month, there couldn’t have been a more relevant or controversial time to release this mockumentary about doping in the Tour De France. With an all star cast and some genuinely funny moments, Tour De Pharmacy delivers a solid slice of comedy at the perfect length of 40 minutes. The story follows a 1982 Tour De France that cleverly pokes fun in cycling and all different styles of documentary....
The Diary More revelations are coming to light in Truth Be Told as Lanie’s dark past reveals itself along with more of her manipulative side too. While the show still lacks some depth with its plot points, the actors continue delivering some solid performances in this drama that’s, so far at least, failed to really reach its potential. We start the episode with Warren heading to his father’s funeral. Before returning to prison, Warren asks Poppy where his mother is....

Flashbacks Episode 3 of Typewriter sees us hit the midway point of the series and inject some flashbacks to proceedings to help flesh out some of the backstory for our main antagonistic threat. The episode starts in Sultanpore in 1950. Aunty Charu comes to see Deven as he’s very ill.

Episode Guide A Gospel Project Searching For Unicorns Decision Day Shaking The Tree Solos The Debut Concert Voices Of Fire opens with an audition; a breathtaking display of singing that ends with Pharrell Williams excited for the journey ahead. It’s a scene we’ve seen a million times before in this format, from Simon Cowell’s eyes turning to dollar bills through to the judges on The Voice slamming their buzzer and spinning round, singing competitions seemingly have an endless staying power on the small screen....

A Trip Down Memory Lane For the last couple of months, I’ve been working with the guys on creating a top 15 TV disappointments of the year. After the first few episodes of this mini-series, I was ready to throw Watchmen onto this list. As per many TV shows nowadays, the first few episodes aren’t always indicative of the overarching quality of a show and there’s no better feeling than a show defying expectations and rising from the ashes into a majestic phoenix....
Cat and Mouse Episode 5 of We Are The Wave begins where the first episode began. The group take the drugged politician away and stage another big political statement, this time with him awakening in a glass box dressed as a Nazi, with one hand strung up in a salute.

Who Am I? There’s a moment in Alex Garland’s Ex Machina where our main protagonist questions his humanity. He gets a straight razor blade and cuts his arm wide open, trying to determine if he’s real or not as blood gushes from his open wound. As he looks up at the mirror, he punches it and stares at the distorted fragments of his own reflection. This scene is particularly key here as Westworld delivers a mirror shattering episode, one that peels away these shards to reveal a shocking and ugly truth underneath....
Westworld Season 4 Episode 5 The park has been reset with a new lick of paint, the characters have been revamped and the balance has been rescaled much more effectively this time around. No one character has the upper-hand (looking at you super Maeve who can not be harmed and controls everything) and the season is all the stronger for it. Our story picks up seven years after the events of season 3....
