Tori Brazier reviews the fifteenth episode of Lucifer season three… Another episode walking on the lighter, more flippant side of Lucifer (if you couldn’t tell already from the title’s inclusion of an incredibly Lucifer-esque word – which means ‘nonsense’, for the confused non-Brits), ‘High School Poppycock’ delves into the world of teenage drama and romance […]
