Doctor Who: The Juggernauts Review
Big Finish have, perhaps more so than the TV series, the ability to bring together loads of different elements from the history of Doctor Who. Marketed specifically for fans, who know the lore and history of the show inside out, bringing back an obscure robot race from the mid 1960s is no issue, nor is plugging a point of continuity from two linked stories from the 1980s. So, a story like "The Juggernauts" is designed purely for the fans, and it works because it doesn't need to keep new fans and casual viewers in the loop. This is a story that plays on the relationship between the Doctor and Davros, and picks up on threads present in previous Big Finish audios to feature the character, most notably the seminal "Davros", as well as developing the character of Mel beyond the one-dimensional caricature she was often forced to play in the TV series. And it does all these jobs superbly.

Why does Homelander work?
Homelander – Celebration of depravity. At the ‘American Film Institute’ in 1970, Alfred Hitchcock famously advocated the utilisation of prolonged tension through an analogy often referenced as: ‘the bomb under the table’. In this, he detailed a hypothetical scene in which several men sit about a table discussing baseball when, suddenly, a bomb erupts. In this scene, the audience is treated to a fleeting shock. A shock which, although effective, would be categorised as quite surface level and, certainly, brief. Alternatively, Hitchcock posited the inclusion of an ‘insert’ shot amidst this scene. One which we are made aware of the bomb’s presence – yet the scene goes on all the same. Like the tracking open of Orson Welles’ ‘Touch Of Evil’, we are now awaiting the bomb’s eruption. We watch these men knowing that, in any moment, the eruption can come. In this second approach, the shock is prolonged and, more so, synonymous with anticipatory anxiety than rudimentary shock. This single anecdote encapsulates the core principles of tension. Just as important as it is to climax into drama, it is also key to threaten chaos. To hang a pendulum over the head of the audience from a fraying string. In Amazon’s ‘The Boys’, I find this principle is represented to near perfection through the characterisation of the series’ chief antagonist – ‘Homelander’. No less, I would even argue that the milk obsessed psychopath is even a physical personification of the notion. Anthony Starr’s harrowing, and often times side-splitting, portrayal of the character is one which oozes dread. His dark antithesis to Superman has, over three seasons, become one of televisions most well realised antagonists.

Ms. Marvel
I have personally been looking forward to this show very much, and although I am disappointed by the change in her powers for the adaptation, I have hope. The lead actress is a perfect choice in not only appearance and personality but in knowledge. This girl really knows her comics and I am excited to see how that informs her portrayal of the character. So here we go with episode 1…

Their little boy weighed 6 pounds, 8 ounces and measured 20.5 inches. Woody and Amani named him Reign Randall. Amani had a home delivery because the couple wanted their baby to be born in a special and very intimate environment with just themselves and the birthing team around. That way they could create the energy that they wanted.

What to watch after 'Top Boy'?
Top Boy is simply the best thing I have watched recently. It stays with me bruv. I already reviewed it here and now I'd like to make some suggestions as to what to watch next, if you are struggling (like I was) to move on to another show.

I Watched the Whole Season of "I May Destroy You"
I have always been a fan of Michaela Coel and I have always admire her work in Chewing Gum and I enjoyed watching her on Chewing Gum. I was shocked to learn about her being assaulted while she was writing her show Chewing Gum which is the reason why she stops writing her show because of her assault and created a limited series "I May Destroy You" inspired by her incident. The show contains 12 episodes each at 30 minutes.
