The Red Woman Mystery: Who is Game of Thrones’ Melisandre?
Tony Black on the mystery of Melisandre… The premiere of the sixth season of Game of Thrones, let’s be honest, threw us for a loop at the end. Hands up – how many of you thought the Lady Melisandre would have brought Jon Snow back from the death we so obviously know won’t be permanent? […]

TV Review – Unbreakable Kimmy Schmidt Season 2
Kirsty Capes reviews the second season of Unbreakable Kimmy Schmidt… Starring Ellie Kemper, Tituss Burgess, Sam Page, Ki Hong Lee, Dylan Gelula, Jane Krasowski, Mike Carlsen, Lisa Kudrow and Jeff Goldblum. This time last year I wrote a rather scathing review of Netflix’s new Tina Fey comedy, Unbreakable Kimmy Schmidt. I called it stale and unbecoming, and mildly […]
