2026 has started with a bang (quite literally) as Coronation Street and Emmerdale collide in this highly anticipated 60-minute showdown. Corrie and Emmerdale are the go-to soaps in my household — a house where even the word EastEnders would be considered a swear word — as the two powerhouses of the UK soap world will…

Season 3 of King of Collectibles: The Goldin Touch is about as stereotypical as an American auction show gets but I absolutely love it as this collectibles series sticks closely to a tried and tested formula that makes the series a hit. Insert a shot of a flashy private jet, big over-inflated personalities who can…

After quite a slog that season 5 has become with the franchise often feeling like its treading in treacle at times the Season 5 finale crammed just about everything you could wish to love about the franchise in one episode. So far we’ve had that a season that for all its ambition, has struggled under…

December has been such a refreshing month on Netflix, as pre-woke comedy has made a remarkable comeback. Matt Rife, Dave Chappelle, and now Ricky Gervais have delivered some hammer-blow, top-tier comedy content on the platform this month. I think it’s safe to say that the world is healing, and woke culture is being cast back…

Dave Chappelle: The Unstoppable dropped on Netflix recently and alongside his usual stand-up routine is more of a statement of defiance as he doubles down on his decisions, stands up for his beliefs and continues to tell his no-holds-barred comedy in a world that is trying to silence free speech before our very eyes. Chappelle…

We recently had the chance to see Paranormal Activity on stage in London, and let me tell you, it was an intense, thrilling experience that left me questioning everything I thought I knew about horror theatre. Instead of watching the movies on a screen at home, why not get yourself down to the Ambassador Theatre…

Five Nights at Freddy’s 2 certainly got off to a wonderful start at the box office during its debut week despite critics absolutely panning it across the board but as someone who refuses to be labelled a critic (I’m just a Stoke lad with a big gob) I came out pleasantly surprised at how good…

So the brand new Matt Rife: Unwrapped stand-up has arrived on Netflix and already is causing a stir with parents who are going stir crazy saying that Matt’s new special spoils one major Christmas tradition as within the opening of the segment he says, Santa isn’t real. Cue the shock from parents worldwide who don’t…

It’s been a few years since we’ve been to MCM Comic Con and as we rocked up to the NEC for the first time this weekend we noticed the event was a lot bigger but was it better? So this lively, high-energy celebration of pop culture certainly had a lovely array of stalls to browse…

Located just a 20-minute drive from Winter Wonderland Stoke is another festive event in the shape of the Winter Light Trail at Trentham Gardens of of course we paid it a visit on a cold Sunday evening to see if it’s worth the money! So the pricing structure for the Winter Light Trail depends on…

Three years we’ve been waiting for this, three years and it’s finally here! It’s Stranger Things Season 5 day!!!  With the release schedule for Stranger Things Season 5 absolutely all over the place, we were treated to the first four episodes on November 27th, with a 1am GMT drop (a global release). It took some…

Kevin Hart really has done it all, hasn’t he? Sell-out tours, movie stardom, fame, money, business ventures, you name it, he’s done it, but one thing that not even Kevin can elude in life is getting old, and this brand-new special dives into that notion in one of his stronger stand-up shows to date. I…
