“Ballard”: A Gritty, Gripping Spin-Off That Proves TV Still Has Its Edge
I’ve been saying it all year 2025 is shaping up to be the year of television, and Ballard is more proof of that. While movies this year have been sluggish filled with remakes and lacking in originality (even the new F1 film feels like a carbon copy of Top Gun, right down to sharing the same director) TV…
“Black Bird” on Apple TV: A Riveting Crime Drama You Can’t Miss
Apple TV’s Black Bird is an incredible show that’s been on my watch list for some time now and if you’re a fan of gripping true crime dramas, it absolutely deserves a spot on yours too. This six-part limited series is a masterclass in storytelling, even though it first premiered in 2022. If you’re feeling burnt out…
“Olympo” Review: A Stylish Yet Sluggish Dive into Sports Drama
Olympo was, unfortunately, a massive disappointment and there are far better sports-themed series out there. To start with, here I am watching another show with subtitles. That’s not a bad thing in itself, but the story has to be compelling enough to keep me engaged and this one struggled to do that. This Spanish Netflix drama follows a…
HOT TAKES FROM THE STAGE: THE BEST, THE WORST, AND THE UNDERRATED
Theatre is meant to move, divide, thrill and sometimes completely disappoint. From West End giants to smaller gems, here’s my unapologetically honest breakdown of the most overrated, most underrated, and absolute best theatre productions I’ve seen.

We Were Liars Review: A Haunting, Beautifully Twisted Ride
I really liked We Were Liars, now streaming on Amazon Prime in a tight and bingeable eight-episode season. It had a moody, mysterious vibe that pulled me in right from the start. This young adult psychological thriller is based on the best-selling novel by E. Lockhart and brings the story to life with haunting visuals and…
DEPT Q INVESTIGATES A TWISTED COLD CASE
There are so many great crime dramas that have come out this year on NETFLIX and this Edinburgh based show is no exception. DEPT Q is a detective show that keeps your mind turning and stomach churning throughout its 9 episodes. You could tell straight away that this TV Show would be an amazing adaptation…
STRANGER THINGS SEASON FINALE TEASER TRAILER HAS WHET MY APPETITE
“I think about that night, all the time. That night it came for you … the night all of this started.” What a great way to open this teaser trailer for Stranger Things S5 coming out on NETFLIX. I really want the themes of Season One to be incorporated within this blockbuster ending of the…
MY FAVOURITE DISNEY CHANNEL MOVIES
Disney Channel defined my childhood viewing. Watching it was part of my formative years, where I would get back from school and put it straight on. Either you were a Disney kid or a Nickelodeon Kid. I was in the Disney camp, but I did watch a few Nickelodeons shows like ICarly and Victorious. Which…
