Accidental Tourist (2025)
2/5
EDIT
“Most of this pilot episode consisted of filler and repetition. Any hopes of an entire series are as cold and unappealing as a squid in a Korean fish market.” –

5/5
EDIT
“This two-hour documentary, directed with sensitivity but also humour by Jaimie D’Cruz and Ed Perkins, depicted the stages of Sam’s psychotic breakdown, which seemed to be building up in waves for several years.” –

Unforgivable (2025)
4/5
EDIT
“It was a powerfully brave performance, but Joe remained sullen, self-pitying, manipulative and disloyal, unable to think of anything but the suffering he had both caused and endured.” –

A Life Among Elephants (2024)
5/5
EDIT
“A tapestry of amateur cine footage, Oria's astonishing photographs and some horrific news footage combined to tell a story of courage and dedication that almost defies belief.” –

4/5
EDIT
“It was a shame to cram so much great material into a one-off. And it's a worse shame that, if Ian Hislop can write like this, he so often prefers to waste his talent on repetitive panel games.” –

Agatha and the Midnight Murders (2020)
2/5
EDIT
“It was all confined to three cramped sets, with the cast as posed and static as a third-rate am-dram production. The dialogue was crammed with foul language.” –

4/5
EDIT
“This 130 minutes of highlights was frequently a confusing melange of clips -- linked by gushing messages from famous friends such as Martin Freeman and Claire Danes. Still, it's marvellous to know that Derren has a hidden staircase in his house.” –
