The creepy, mysterious new teaser trailer released this week for the 6th season of HBO's Game of Thrones has sparked much discussion from the fans with many believing that it is foreshadowing to the death of most of the main characters, Tyrion, Arya, Sansa, Cersei, Jaime and Daenerys. However, could it, in fact, be implying something else? The trailer shows... Continue Reading →
Episode 1: Title: “The Darkest Hour: Part One” Another tense and exciting start to a season. Everything changes and is shaken up for the characters. Firstly, we are given Morgana and Morgause in a very different light. Morgause has become crippled and weak, contrasting incredibly to how she was presented in Series 2 and 3 where she...

Now, I'm sure some fans and critics out there are applauding Moffat and Gatiss' creativity and uniqueness regarding the New Year's Day special of BBC's Sherlock which was set in two alternative time periods and delved into "mind palaces" of the living dead, ghosts and the repercussions of taking too many drugs. There must also... Continue Reading →
Whilst re-watching this season, I've realised that Series 4 was the first time I watched the show as it aired. I watched Series 1 to 3 all in one go whilst waiting for Series 4 to be shown on BBC One, and I remember being so incredibly excited to watch the fourth season live and weekly.... Continue Reading →
Episode 1: Title: "The Tears of Uther Pendragon: Part One" Definitely an action-packed and exciting opening to the season with the first appearance of Morgana's smirk of doom which becomes an incredibly common part of Series 3, which poses the hilarious question; Why does no one in the royal court know that Morgana is a traitor...

Episode 1: Title: "The Curse of Cornelius Sigan" In my opinion, I think that this episode is really comic, although delving in seriousness as well, as Merlin defeats the most powerful sorcerer he's ever faced. It's really sad to see Merlin being framed by Cedric as an idiot, and Cedric taking the glory for saving Arthur's life... Continue Reading →
I always thought that Series 2 of BBC's Merlin was very similar to the first season and predominantly developed the characters and the plot that had already been set up in Series 1 and, after re-watching, I've learned that it does this so extraordinarily. There is no drastic changes, unless you count the events of... Continue Reading →
Episode: 1 Title: "The Dragon's Call" Obviously, this episode is the pinnacle of nostalgia. Meeting all of the legendary characters when they were just starting out; Merlin, Gaius, Prince Arthur, King Uther, Lady Morgana, Guinevere, The Great Dragon. As Merlin waltzes into the gates of Camelot, the viewer can see the awe and wonder in his... Continue Reading →
