22:02 - Monsters At Work (Disney Plus)

22:24 - The Simpsons, Season 9 Episode Eight 'Lisa The Skeptic' (Disney Plus/All4)


Quite a packed week all-in-all then. I'm particularly excited for the return of Michael Mcintyre's The Wheel, which is easily the BBC's greatest game show in years. It wouldn't be quite as entertaining without Michael McIntyre at the helm, but it's a lot of fun to watch, particularly when in Weakest Link style they rank the celebrities in terms of who has offered the strongest and weakest contributions.

The Grand Tour Presents Lochdown also looks very promising, with the trailer suggesting it will feature the usual hilarious banter between Clarkson, Hammond and May. Those three could read the phone book and it would still be a highly engaging watch. Scotland is also a very pretty area to have these car enthusiasts visit, so there should be some stunning pieces of cinematography which make some great use of the 4K presentation.

Happy TV viewing!

Your friendly neighbourhood Whovian Sean

FEATURE: What Should Dancing On Ice Do Next?

 FEATURE: What Should Dancing On Ice Do Next? In a move which is sadly becoming all too common for Dancing On Ice these days, yet another celebrity has dropped out of the current series. Australian singer Jason Donovan and his partner Alexandra Lukasz have been forced to pull out of the competition, after Jason Donovan suffered a serious back injury during training.  The question on everybody's lips right now is 'What should Dancing On Ice do next?'.  Here are a few suggestions of what their next move could be. Bring Back Joe Warren-Plant and Vanessa Bauer I covered this possibility in more detail with my previous Dancing On Ice article (which you can check out here ), but that was before Jason Donovan was forced to leave the competition. In a world where Dancing On Ice has been reduced to only five celebrities in the sixth week of the competition, the situation seems even more dire than it did before. To put that into perspective, this means that at Dancing On Ice's cu...

FEATURE: Why Joe Warren-Plant Should Return To Dancing On Ice

 FEATURE: Why Joe Warren-Plant Should Return To Dancing On Ice This past Friday, Joe Warren-Plant was forced to pull out of the current series of Dancing On Ice after both himself and his skating partner Vanessa Bauer tested positive with COVID. They were one of a string of skating couples who have been forced to leave the skating competition either permanently or on a temporary basis, owing to a variety of reasons. Rufus Hound was the first victim of Dancing On Ice Series Thirteen's unbelievable bad luck, when he himself landed with COVID. Then came Denise Van Outen, who dislocated her shoulder, Billie Shepherd who first took a week out to deal with a family bereavement and then landed with concussion, and most recently Jason Donovan, who was advised to rest for a week after experiencing severe back pains (although he is due to return to the ice come the next live show). However on Monday ITV announced that Dancing On Ice will be taking a week's break in light of these recent ...

REVIEW: Doctor Who - The Movie

REVIEW: Doctor Who - The Movie Recently on this blog, I posted my thoughts on the rumours regarding a potential BBC Films/Warner Bros. Doctor Who movie (which you can read here ), so I thought I would take a look back at my review for Paul McGann's feature length debut, aptly titled 'Doctor Who: The Movie'. Doctor Who - The Movie is a curious part of Doctor Who history. Originally intended to launch a new TV series produced by the BBC, Fox and Universal, it has become something of a missing link between the classic and new series, with all plans for what would have been Paul McGann's first full series dropped due to poor viewing figures stateside. So what was at fault? Well, for starters it feels like it was a mistake to include Sylvester McCoy as his incarnation of the Doctor at the beginning of the movie. This would no doubt have been confusing for new viewers who didn't previously follow the series; the TV movie did, after all, air seven years after the last epis...
