'Guilt' Season 1 Episode 2 Recap: Cold Little Heart
Last time on Guilt, the brothers Softie and Cheekbones committed vehicular homicide, covered it up and then just started digging a metaphorical hole so deep they’re now almost certainly unable to get out unassisted. What bad idea will they try this week? Only one way to find out: on with the show! -
'Guilt' Season 1 Episode 1 Recap: Your Turn To Drive
Guilt opens up with some '80s synth accompanying a car driving on a nearly empty freeway, or whatever they call them over there in the U.K. — her majesty’s roadway? I’m not googling it. I’ll say it now: if those vibes don’t sound immaculate to YOU, we might not get along. -
'Unforgotten' Season 4 Episode 6 Recap: Dies Irae
Are you ready? Are your metaphorical seatbelts fastened? Good, because as much as I think we’d all like to go back in time to 30 seconds before last week’s episode ended, Unforgotten must go on, and so must we. As you might expect, this week starts with a shot of a horrified Sunny sprinting into the hospital, where I very much hope he’ll discover that Cassie is banged up but otherwise fine. He cuts the line at the reception desk, and once updated, gets the horrible task of calling Cassie’s kid to tell him what happened, and that he better head to the hospital. -
'Unforgotten' Season 4 Episode 5 Recap: If I Could Turn Back Time
Last week, we finally found out what did Matt the Victim in: a very huge spike in the head. But are we looking at murder, or an accident? Only one way to know for sure, and that’s to get more info. Luckily, we have Cassie and Sunny (and the rest of the squad) on the case. -
'Unforgotten' Season 4 Episode 4 Recap: Clique
We’ve got a body. We’ve got a bunch of potential suspects all acting kinda fishy. We’ve got a witness who can confirm that our victim Matt was being chased the last time he was seen alive. Things are looking up for ol’ Cassie! Well… sort of. Whilst the detective side of things is humming along nicely, her attempt to use her son to spy on her dad isn’t going that well. -
'Unforgotten' Season 4 Episode 3 Recap: No Body, No Crime
After last week the metaphorical cat (i.e. Matt the murder victim) is well and truly out of the bag, and our suspect pool of formerly newly qualified cops knows it. This week, we dive right into the emotional fallout from the press conference, featuring all four of our suspects’ sleepless nights which, in the case of Family Therapist, is so bad she decides to fake a flu to stay home and stew. Not staying home, but absolutely stewing, is Cassie’s boss, who is mad as hell that she’s continuing to investigate a bunch of former/current cops when there’s an obvious and conveniently deceased non-police scapegoat in Dead Hoarder. -
'Unforgotten' Season 4 Episode 2 Recap: Race Against Time
Last week, Cassie was red-taped back into her job, the team found a headless, handless body in a freezer, and we met a bunch of people who may or may not have committed a murder right after qualifying as police officers, but who definitely were in a car where one of them got caught driving drunk. That dude (mercilessly given the recap moniker Dead Hoarder by yours truly) recently, well, died, leaving the aforementioned body in his freezer. -
'Unforgotten' Season 4 Episode 1 Recap: Landslide
I can’t be the only one who’s been waiting with bated breath for TWO YEARS for Unforgotten to come back, right? Surely there are other Nicola Walker stans; other Sanjeev Bhaskar disciples, who have bided our time for the triumphant return of this wonderful series? Anyway, quick recap within a recap: last season followed the cold case of a young woman who was found dead off the side of a motorway after disappearing on New Year’s eve. I won’t say who the killer is just in case you haven’t seen season three yet, although if that’s you, what are you doing here? Go watch it! -
'Us' Episode 2 Recap: Someone Like You
Ok, where were we? As you may recall from last week’s episode, Third Wheel has abandoned the sinking ship of his parents’ Last Hurrah Vacation, Not Mandy Moore has returned home, and Knock-Off Jack has followed Third Wheel to Venice in a last ditch attempt to rekindle his relationship with his son, his wife, and his sense of whimsy. -
'Us' Episode 1 Recap: Love Is A Battlefield
