I’m walking past the theatre district the other night, and I swear I thought I’d taken a wrong turn into an earlier age. Back to the Future in giant neon. Down the street The Lion King (again). Around the corner The Devil Wears Prada and right there in the middle? A whole pack of spotted dogs 101 Dalmatians and…
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,…
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.

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 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…
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. …
