Martin Carr reviews the fourth episode of Preacher… Good god I love this show! Now I’m not one for exclamation marks or a massive outpouring of emotion, but Preacher has lit a fire under me which refuses to go out. There is an air of justified arrogance and self-assurance which few other shows have managed […]
Scream: The TV Series Season 2 Episode 4 Review – ‘Happy Birthday To Me’
Martin Carr reviews the fourth episode of Scream: The TV Series season 2… Every time I watch this programme there is no avoiding the guilty pleasure it gives me.

Versailles Season 1 Episode 4 Review
Kirsty Capes reviews the fourth episode of Versailles… Last week I said BBC Two’s megabudget Anglo-Franco sexy period drama Versailles might be able to redeem itself after a rather lackluster performance over the past three episodes.
