Doctor Who – The Power Of The Doctor (2022)(TV Review)

Alex Paine 02/11/2022
Doctor Who – The Power Of The Doctor (2022)(TV Review)

I have discussed Doctor Who plenty of times, doing pieces on each of Jodie Whittaker’s series, but the first specific episode review of Doctor Who I did was way back in January 2018, when I covered the recent Twice Upon A Time, the final episode for both Peter Capaldi as […]

The Intruder (1972) A Strange Slice of 1970s Nostalgia (TV/Blu-Ray Review)

Postman Pat and the reboot for Late-Stage Capitalism (the 1980s/2008)

‘Postman Pat, Postman Pat, Postman Pat and his alienated cat…’ You might think that using Postman Pat as a focal point for examining socio-economic changes over the last 40 years is an unlikely choice for an article. And you’d be right. But in this essay – sorry, article – I […]

Classic Film Kid Vs. Doctor Who Flux (2021)

Classic Film Kid Vs. Doctor Who Flux (2021)

Hello everyone, it’s the Classic Film Kid back again to talk about the most recent series of Doctor Who, titled Flux! MILD SPOILER ALERT In the weeks running up to Christmas, Whovians sat down to watch the final full series for the current doctor, Jodie Whittaker, and showrunner Chris Chibnall, […]

Slasher: Scooby-Doo, with more blood and guts

Matt Colver 08/03/2022
Slasher: Scooby-Doo, with more blood and guts

I love a good mystery. Sherlock Holmes, Agatha Christie, Scooby-Doo – anything where the central premise is uncovering the identity of the dastardly villain, or villains, behind it all. And I know I’m not alone. Mysteries have been popular ever since Edgar Allan Poe’s story ‘The Murders in the Rue […]

Doctor Who Flux – the Vanquishers (Episode 6)(Review)

David O Hare 09/12/2021
Doctor Who Flux – the Vanquishers (Episode 6)(Review)

CONTAINS SPOILERS Mr Chibnall’s opus culminates as the Flux’s various plots end in a flurry of recycled ideas and unanswered questions. In an extra-long finale, did the Doctor uncover her past, or open a can of worms? Disparate plots are a running theme of this series, and the finale is […]

Doctor Who Season 13: Flux – Survivors of the Flux CONTAINS SPOILERS Oh, what a tangled web we weave, when first we practice stamping our mark on a 58-year-old English science fiction show. But finally, there’s light at the end of the Flux tunnel as this episode manages where others […]

Doctor Who Flux – The Village of the Angels (Episode 4)(Review)

“The Village of the Angels”. Fan favourites the Weeping Angels return with a bang in this week’s episode and despite some inconsistencies, it’s an episode peppered with nostalgic scares and menace. CONTAINS SPOILERS This series is like a greatest hit’s tour of Doctor Who villains, a bumpy ghost train, with […]

Doctor Who Flux – Once Upon Time (Episode 3)(Review)

“Once Upon Time”. We’re a long way down the time vortex, and there is no place like home. Doctor Who goes into overdrive in a badly structured meander into madness. CONTAINS SPOILERS To start with, an apology for wrongly titling this week’s episode in last week’s review. Perhaps too entrenched […]

Doctor Who Flux – War of the Sontarans (Episode 2)(Review)

Doctor Who Flux – War of the Sontarans (Episode 2)(Review)

“War of the Sontarans”. Better, but still bonkers. It’s episode 2 of the latest Doctor Who series and I think my brain may be starting to adjust to the manic pacing and nonsensical scripting – I actually watched this episode without hanging out the washing (that’s what happens when you […]
