The Repair Shop - The home of happy tears
On March 27th 2017 an unassuming new series began, showing beloved items belonging to members of the public being repaired. It featured a diverse “cast” of restoration experts who had mostly never been seen on TV before, all experts in their field. (Jay Blades being the exception, having previously fronted “Money For Nothing” for the BBC.) That show was “The Repair Shop”, the BBC’s sleeper surprise hit which has in its just over five years on air to date, become amongst the BBC’s most popular factual based shows that isn’t the news.

Designated Survivor: New, but not improved Jack Bauer
In the early 2000s, the introduction of Jack Bauer in 24 as the agent who could do-it-all changed the game for action-dramas on television. The thrill of watching every minute unfold as it happened in real-time gave the viewers a rush and in many years since, there hasn’t been a show that has been able to match the urgency that 24 captured in every single episode. Of course, there has been talk for a few spin-offs but we all know that revisiting an old classic is never a good idea.

Netflix Heartstopper vs. Comic Heartstopper
As someone who has read through the Heartstopper comic more than a couple of times, I was beyond excited to hear there would be a Netflix adaptation. Well, excited and a bit trepidatious. Because we all know not all Netflix adaptations are created equal and I wanted this precious story to be represented well. I don’t know if you’ve heard all the hype (if you’re reading this, you’re probably sorting through the hype), but the show has done amazingly well in its first week of release! Which I am so excited about! So I wanted to talk about the show and some of the key differences from the comic for those who are worried it might deviate too much and are wondering if they want to give it a try.
