Cumberbatch presents the Apple toilet
Benedict Cumberbatch was on Saturday Night Live the other day (probably on Saturday) because he seems to be contractually obliged to be absolutely everywhere at the moment. To be fair, … Read More

Planet Earth 2 by Attenborough
A trailer has just come out for Planet Earth II, narrated by Sir David Attenborough. The original Planet Earth came out ten years ago and was the most expensive documentary ever commissioned by the BBC and the first to be filmed in high definition. Planet Earth II took 4 years to make, and was filmed in 64 countries and in Ultra-High Definition.
Sherlock Series 4
So the big excitement that has prompted me to write this, is that there is a new Sherlock trailer. It doesn’t give much away about what will happen but it does show Toby Jones who is going to be a new villain.
It’s Always Sunny in Philadelphia
It’s Always Sunny in Philadelphia has been described as ‘Seinfeld on crack’ which I guess is kind of fair given the shallow cynicism of the protagonists and the ludicrous situations that evolve but they are from a very different social spectrum.
Gotham trailer
The much anticipated (by me anyway) Gotham TV show is on its way. Now there is a trailer.
Fargo Tv show
When I heard they were making a Tv show based on Fargo I was a bit baffled as to what that actually meant. I assumed it just meant the occasional murder in a very bleak landscape with lots of black humour.
South Park: The Stick of Truth Game
South Park: The Stick of Truth video game is almost upon us and I am damned excited.
Sherlock Holmes Season 3
Ok, I’ll keep this brief. Like the trailer. #sherlocklives pretty much explains what it’s all about. We knew that anyway as you see him at the end of the final episode of season 2. The big shock here is Martin Freeman’s/Watson’s facial hair.
Cosmos
When I was a kid, one of my favourite shows was ‘Cosmos’ by the legendary Carl Sagan. It was astronomy with huge inspiring dollops of philosophy.
In Saturn’s Rings
Some obsessed young fellow, probably single, has spend the last 6 years splicing together actual photos from space missions to make a kind of animated photo flipbook thing that looks like a movie.
Flight of the Conchords charity video
The Flight of the Conchords began as a comedy radio show on the BBC and then the genius that is HBO turned that into a TV show in America. The music is brilliant and the sitcom was hilarious. Sadly they have not been on our screens for ages. Until now!
Frozen Planet in HD
Last night we got back from the pub and were tucking in medium rare steaks wondering what to watch on the TV. This is just the way we live, don’t … Read More
A Game of Thrones
Over the past month my life seems to have been filled with George R.R. Martin’s A Game of Thrones. It all started when I was in a bookshop in the … Read More
Too much TV causes Death!
I read an alarming article the other day. According to a recent study by the University of Queensland, every hour spent watching TV reduces a viewer’s life expectancy by 22 minutes. … Read More
Apple worship
I saw a cool documentary the other day, called ‘Secrets of the Superbrands’ on good old BBC. It was actually pretty interesting given that I generally don’t care about brand … Read More
30 Rock
A review of the sitcom 30 Rock with Tina Fey.
The Human Centipede
The Human Centipede is a pretty pointless horror film once you get over the main premise.
Hole in the wall TV show
Holy shit. I just turned on the TV and thought: “I haven’t watched terrestrial tv on a Saturday evening for years, I wonder what it’s like these days?” Astoundingly, it’s … Read More

Knight Rider 2008
