I’m not the kind of person who can just pop one on Spotify while I’m on the train or a plane and zone out. I like to watch podcasts and actually take them in properly. I would still 100% classify that as entertainment. It’s just a different kind of experience when you’re watching the full conversation unfold,…

ANNIKA Review: A Fourth-Wall Crime Drama That Deserves More Praise
I think the critics have got this one wrong. The second season of Annika just landed on BBC iPlayer this week, and honestly, it’s perfectly watchable, more than that, it’s gripping, clever, and completely unique in how it’s told. What makes Annika a brilliant crime drama is its format. DI Annika Strandhed (played by Nicola Walker) breaks the fourth…
LOCH NESS REVIEW – A HAUNTING HIGHLAND WHODUNNIT WITH STUNNING SCENERY AND SLOW PACING
Loch Ness is a gripping crime drama set against the hauntingly beautiful backdrop of the Scottish Highlands. While the show delivers strong suspense and an intriguing mystery, its pacing can feel a little too slow at times, which may test the patience of some viewers. The story kicks off when a dead body is discovered near…
HAPPY GILMORE 2: SILLY, STAR-STUDDED, AND SURPRISINGLY SENTIMENTAL
Happy Gilmore 2 starts with a bang and delivers a hilarious first hour that had me laughing harder than I have in years. The film leans fully into its cornball nature and I loved that about it. It knows what it is and never tries to be anything more than a ridiculous, feel-good comedy. Even though…

HOW BEND IT LIKE BECKHAM BECAME A QUIET CLASSIC
When Bend It Like Beckham landed in UK cinemas in 2002, it wasn’t just a charming underdog sports film. It was even if we didn’t fully realise it at the time a cultural moment. A modest British indie about a Punjabi girl in West London defying tradition to chase a football dream, it went on to become…
EPISODE 3 REVIEW: THE SUMMER I TURNED PRETTY – SHIFTING LOYALTIES AND EMOTIONAL DEPTH.
Episode 3 flipped everything for me and yes, I might just be Team Conrad now, but probably not for the reasons you’d expect. Conrad doesn’t need to end up with Belly, or even stay in the same place. He needs a fresh start, somewhere far from the chaos that’s followed him. His dad continues to…
5 SHOWS THAT DESERVED BETTER THAN A SUDDEN CANCELLATION
There have been countless great TV shows over the years, but not all of them got the ending or the lifespan they truly deserved. Sometimes it’s low ratings, other times it’s studio politics or budget cuts, but no matter the reason, the result is the same: heartbroken fans left with unfinished stories and unresolved plotlines. …

WHY “WHITE CHICKS” IS STILL FUNNIER THAN MOST MODERN COMEDIES
It’s been over 20 years since White Chicks dropped and yet it still has got iconic lines and rewatched like it came out last week. Why is this chaotic and over the top 2004 comedy aged better than so many of the funnier movies today? Here are 4 reasons why I think it still stands…
