Wayward Pines Season 2 Episode 5 Review – ‘Sound the Alarm’
Martin Carr reviews the fifth episode of Wayward Pines season 2… Pines is not for everyone. I figure that has become clear for those who have chosen to read my reviews of this season. Mildly unimpressed is merely the tip of a larger iceberg in my opinion. Intrigue and mystery which made the first season […]
Preacher Season 1 Episode 4 Review – ‘Monster Swamp’
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. Scream is the old school 90210 of teen dramas, where actors clearly over twenty wander around looking anguished with a charge card. There is such joy […]

Video Game Review – The Technomancer
Tom Powter reviews The Technomancer… It dawned on me fairly quickly that The Technomancer, despite its disappointing presentation and overly-cumbersome gameplay, was actually trying legitimately hard to tell a compelling story. With its intriguing concepts and well-voiced plot, it’s a shame then that the game is let down by a multitude of factors, all of […]
Game of Thrones: Winter has brought the Age of Queens
Tony Black on Game of Thrones’ ‘Age of Queens’ (spoilers for ‘The Winds of Winter’ follow)… It began with Kings. Game of Thrones now looks set to end with Queens. The feminist revolution in Westeros truly blossomed this season and epic finale ‘The Winds of Winter’ cemented the concrete inside the stone, or perhaps more […]
