21:00 - Invincible, Season 1 Episode Six 'You Look Kinda Dead' (Amazon Prime)

22:02 - The Simpsons, Season 8 Episode Fifteen 'Homer's Phobia' (Disney Plus/All4)

Some very interesting changes to the schedule this week. Firstly we have Coronation Street reduced to a measly two episodes, owing to the Euros 2021 matches which are flooding the schedules. I personally am not a fan of football, finding it extremely tedious to watch, which is why it's absent from my schedules, and I wish Coronation Street was on at its normal times.

Then we've got the surprising return of Gino's Win Your Wish List, which was quietly dropped by Channel 5 back in 2019, presumably owing to its dire viewing figures. Apparently these are episodes from the previous series two years ago which were shelved and never broadcast, so quite why Channel 5 has suddenly decided to resurrect them is anybody's guess.

I'm most excited to check out Clarkson's Farm, because the trailer made the farming series look very promising. It seems there will be plenty of humour to be had from Jeremy Clarkson turning to a life of farming, which to be honest is exactly what I want from a show like this. We don't want Clarkson to succeed, we want him to fail drastically, because it's more fun that way.

Happy TV viewing!

Your friendly neighbourhood Whovian Sean

REVIEW: Bates Motel, Season 2 Episode Four 'Check-Out'

 REVIEW: Bates Motel, Season 2 Episode Four 'Check-Out' The revelations at the end of the previous episode were quite a shock to the Bates family tree, to say the least. Dylan (Max Thieriot), it seems, was the product of a rape - and not any old rape, but a rape which occurred between brother and sister. This episode picks up with the ramifications from such a reveal, in what is a very character focused episode of Bates Motel. Poor Dylan. He's had this major reveal about his parentage thrown on him, and it doesn't seem as though he has been coping at all. Dylan's been on the booze, and when Norman (Freddie Highmore) and Norma (Vera Farmiga) find him, he's in quite a state. Check-Out is a real showcase for the character of Dylan; it develops his character significantly, and poses some interesting questions regarding this new status quo he has found himself in. If everything you thought you knew changed, and you had a different father to who you were led to beli...

REVIEW: WandaVision, Season 1 Episode Seven 'Breaking The Fourth Wall'

 REVIEW: WandaVision, Season 1 Episode Seven 'Breaking The Fourth Wall' Originally published in 2020, here are my thoughts on WandaVision's seventh episode 'Breaking The Fourth Wall'. This episode brings us up to date, with Wanda Maximoff (Elizabeth Olsen) now giving us her take on a modern sitcom. This version of WandaVision feels like a combination of Modern Family and The Office , with - as the title suggests - lots of the typical fourth wall breaking that you would expect of this mockumentary style. As with the other sitcom episodes, it's just so funny too. The comedy really lands, with so many moments that make you laugh out loud. One of my personal favourite gags from Modern Day WandaVision was the glitchy magic with the kids' game controllers. Seeingtey their controllers going from the modern PlayStation-style to the N64, and then to the Atari joystick, before landing on a pack of UNO playing cards just really made me chuckle. As did the hilarity of...
