This episode had good potential as the idea of a swarm and a man made anomaly was something new. However it got a bit cheesy as the queen was massively over sized and really, they can dig through reinforced concrete in seconds. Philip the added threat of Philip blowing everyone and abby going to save her pet at the last minuet hummm. This made for some cheesy lines. And Gamma rays are light so move at the speed of light you stupid TV effects people not like 10 mph!!
Also half way though the episode I started thinking this whole cast is way to attractive what is up with this !! Now this hasn't detracted from the acting to much but does leave the atmosphere and feelings down a little.
Now it did build suspense quite nicely and was possibly a scarier and darker episode, ish, which I liked although when i'm thinking to myself just die you useless model this kind of detracts from the mood.
The Walking Dead Season 3 The series will be 19 episodes long and feature some new characters. Danai Gurira's character, Michonne, has been described as "...awesome. She's sexy. She's a badass." by Laurie Holden and Danai herself as "really impressive, and she brings the character to life." by Gale Anne Hurd. David Morrissey has said that "...people are going to be blown away" by his new character, The Governor. Glen Mazzara also said"...he thinks he's the Messiah." Actor Chandler Riggs said that his character Carl was "...growing up. He's definitely not a kid anymore ... He's more of a solder, more part of the group." And producer David Alpert promised that "We're going to kill so many people ... people that you care about and love". A new clip was put online but has now been removed due to copy write but there is a picture seen above.
Doctor Who
Mark Gattis is writing a victorian-set episode for after christmas and the guest actors and some screen shots have been revieled! It is the ninth episode and it is called The Crimson Horror. See the updated episode guidehere.
Dame Diana Rigg is playing Mrs Gillyflower, a woman with a dark secret known to the inhabitants of Sweetville as "the Ice Lady", who does something dastardly to new companion Clara that the Doctor (aided by a couple of old friends) has to reverse. These old friends appear to be Madame Vastra and Sontaran Strax.
Dame Diana Riggs's daughter, Rachael Stirling, is playing her daughter! She has been seen on set wearing prosthetics for a burnt face! Whats that about, Ice lady and fire daughter ?
Madame Vastra
Sontaran Strax
For those of you who don't know Dame Diana Rigg is best known for her 60's roles in On Her Majesty's Secret Service and the UK TV show The Avengers and Rachael Striling was in Snow White and the Huntsman.
Sweetville's match factory, which goes by the name of Brightwell and Hyman, is a place regarded suspiciously by the locals, and will play a part in the episode's story.
But wait there is more!!!
Also in this episode has the guest actorsCatrin Stewart, David Warner, Liam Cunningham and Brendan Patricks like OMG (no i don't recognise the names either).
Okay so the girl to the left is Catrin Stewart. She played that girl in Misfits that could turn things to ice and then blew her self up by having sex with Nathans long lost brother! (what I told you it had spoilers). And this episode has an Ice Lady too! But more importantly she was the girl that was with Madame Vastra in A Good Man Goes to War half way throught the last series of doctor who!
David Warner is older and been in all the high geekness movies from Tron to Star Trek.
Liam Cunningham is a main character from Game of Thrones and has been in loads of stuff! Apparently he has been teased to include the words "meat", "klaxon" and "Vienna".
Brendan Patricks is the guy to the right. He is from Downton Abbey.
More Pictures?:
Loving the new hat Matt! and whats with the tweed waist cote and bow tie...
What really? More Who News! Yerp. However it is about a different episode.
The writer of Luther and Spooks, Neil Cross, is writing his first episode for Doctor Who. Not much is known about it but we know it will star Jessica Raine (seen right) and Dougray Scott (seen left). These pictures are not from Doctor Who. (Your a goon if you thought they were)
Jessica is from Call The Midwife and The Woman in Black.
Dougray is from Mission: Impossible II and Desperate Housewives.
And yes I used their first name not the conventional second name, get over it.
Sherlock and Sky
Sky Living will be playing host to the US show Elementary in the UK this autumn. We have been told that Jonny Lee Miller plays Holmes as an ex-pat Brit with a history of drug abuse whose father employs Lucy Liu’s live-in assistant Dr Watson to aid his recovery. Romantic complications, we’re told, ensue.
Really Romantic complications, Shelock can't have romantic complications!! and a history of drug abuse, isn't he suppose to be a hero, a role model, what is up with this america? >:O Nice to know sky have the same idea and put it on an inconspicuous channel!
:Enter Enraged Rant Here:
In case your interested Sky have also bought Vegas and The Followingwhich will be on Sky Atlantic and DC Comics adoption Arrow which will be on Sky1.
They Arrow looks like a rip off of hawk eye (well he came first but still), but a good one. The Following look like a aright horror thing ! Trailers Bellow (second Arrow trailer here, for more information click here). Vegas looks terrible.
Benedict Cumberbatch, everyone's favourite modem Sherlock, has a guest role in the US show The Simpsons! You may have heard of it. This will add to his roles in The Hobbit and Star Trek later this year. We think he will not however be playing Sherlock but an unknown and unconfirmed character. Benedict said: "I was at a meeting in the same place The Simpsons is recorded and heard there was a part going in an episode. I said 'I hate to muscle in here guys but could I record it?' Next thing, I'm standing in a room with all those famous voices; Bart, Marge, Homer, Lisa."
And Finally, if a slip of the tongue courtesy of Dredd’s Karl Urba is correct then it is sort of confirmed that Benedict will be playing Gary Mitchell, a villain from the original series of Star Trek in the new Star Treksequel. (Yes I know this is movie news but it fits better here!) Mitchell was a member of the Starfleet Academy who was exposed to a magnetic storm aboard the SS Valiant, leaving him with godlike telekinetic powers and a decidedly nasty temper.
And that's all, sorry about all the spoilers Kieron :O

You may remember last week I was a bit down on Primeval. I eat my words.
In this week's episode, a raptor escaped through an anomaly into a pop-art gallery. The team forced it back through the anomaly, then realised they'd got the wrong anomaly and had sent the raptor back to Victorian England, where it turned out to be responsible for a series of murders that had thought to have been committed by Spring-heeled Jack. Matt followed the raptor through the anomaly in order to track it down, to find Emily on the other side.
This episode was alot better than the first two of the series. It was tense and kept you glued all the way through. The pacing was fast and, for once, the plot wasn't obvious and predictable, especially towards the end.
The other advantage the episode had over the last two was Emily. Ruth Bradley is one of the best actresses the franchise has seen, and the character of Emily is alot more interesting than all the others put together. It's great that she now seems to have permanently returned to the series.
Primeval also hugely benefitted from a change of scenery. Modern-day was getting very samey, using Victorian England added alot more fun and romance to the story. Typical Dickensian clichés such as the puppeteer at the beginning and the story of Jack the Ripper were too charming not to be loved.
Of course, it wasn't flawless. As with every episode of Primeval, parts were badly written, and came across as corny. But this shouldn't take away from the overall piece.
Definately better.
7/10
What did you think of this week's Primeval? Let us know in the comments. Tom :)
