Doctor Who Series 3 “Utopia” – Review
I hate Peri. For those of you with only knowledge of New Who (2005-now), i.e mostly my editor, I’m not talking about today’s episode of “Utopia.” I’ve been listening to the Big Finish adventures from the start during lockdown. Not at an expeditious…

Doctor Who “Human Nature” & “Family of Blood” – Review
I won’t lie, as a kid, I didn’t really enjoy “Human Nature” & “Family of Blood.” I’ve always understood it to be very well written, but there was just something about being a kid and the length of the episode. I’d just…

The Strangers: Prey At Night Review
I finally started playing Dead By Daylight. I’m not very good at it — though I did throw myself a little private celebration the first time I pipped — but I’m working on it. This article isn’t about that, or at least…
