Clwb Ifor Bach, a night club in Cardiff, the capital of Wales, is the kind of venue whose sticky floors hold generational memories of first intoxications. One evening in July, about a hundred young people lined up outside-girls in crop tops and short skirts, boys in baggy pants and tees. Once admitted, they gathered in knots on the dance floor, holding drinks in plastic cups.

Chris Chalk did his research to embody a younger version of "shine" practitioner and eventual Overlook Hotel hero Dick Hallorann - read Stephen King's It, watched The Shining and Doctor Sleep, consulted a Taschen compendium on Stanley Kubrick's adaptation. He knew, of course, the narrative lore about the destruction of the Black Spot, a juke joint for Black servicemembers that burned down in Derry, and that the event would be depicted in IT: Welcome to Derry.

Landman, at its best, is an occupational hazard drama about one of the most dangerous industries in America. We might pal around with an oil company's president all day by following the life of Tommy Norris (Billy Bob Thornton), but Landman's most engaging stories cover what happens when you run a business that reports zero days without an accident every single day. It's not just reenacting drilling explosions and gas leaksit's exploring the grief that comes with losing your loved ones on the job.

When we asked about his favorite in-flight snack, he told us, "If I'm on Delta, it's the Biscoff," referring to the beloved biscuits that have been one of the Atlanta-based airline's complimentary snacks since 1988. Despite being served on flights around the globe, the caramelized cookies crafted with all-natural ingredients are still made by Lotus Bakeries, a family-operated company based in Lebbeke, Belgium.

Russell T Davies' latest drama, The War Between The Land and The Sea, will air this weekend and is fronted by Russell Tovey. The five-part series, a spin-off from , sees Tovey star as the low-level UNIT staff member, Barclay, who becomes a spokesperson for humanity as the Homo Aqua (aka the Doctor Who villains the Sea Devils) reemerge angry at the destruction done to the planet's oceans.

I am five and having my picture taken at school. On my eye is a medical patch. That's what they did to you in the 1980s if you had a squint. My dad cut my hair using a bowl, which is why it is such a tragedy. I had a safe and loving childhood, and that's what I see when I look at that kid.

We see this multiple times in this week's episode, most notably when prison guard Kevin Jackson tips Mike off that his boss, Torres, has another drug shipment coming in on a gas tanker truck. Mike tells Kevin not to worry about anyone finding out he's been spilling insider info, saying, "If any of this lands on their radar, I'll handle it." Kevin, a savvy young man, replies, "I hear the words you're saying. They're just words."

Vanessa Williams is the true definition of a triple threat, she can act, sing, and dance - and she looks amazing throughout. The actress and singer has had a varied career with roles on screen and stage as well as chart topping hits. Many will know her as the iconic Wilhelmina Slater from Ugly Betty and heard her song, "Save the Best for Last," demonstrating what a powerhouse she is.

When the Norris family meets up with T.L. before the funeral, we get a glimpse of the charmer he once was. Or maybe that's just the power of Sam Elliott, whose palpable charisma rubs off on his screen partners. He's full of praise for Angela, Ainsley, and especially Ariana, with whom he forms a quick kinship based on a shared history of loss.

Despite the controversy, how did it feel to have so many of your fellow contestants support you in that walk out? Tapper asked. Bosch said she was grateful for the support of the other contestants and people online. And then it was really weird because it's like, you have all the support of the world. And then you won, and you have all the hate. So it's like so so much to deal, you know?

"I always imagined the saints being ancient beings," Francesca told IndieWire. "When I found out there was a young boy who was alive while I've been alive, it was incredible to me. He was just a regular kid, he went to parties and enjoyed his time with his friends. But he used the internet in a very special way, an inspiring way. He used his platform for good - I think of him as the first influencer."

Netflix Sean Combs.

Back in 2008, when Nicola Coughlan was at drama school, a guy in her class swaggered over and, with all the brimming confidence of young men in the noughties, asked her, Do the Irish think the English are really cool? Coughlan, born in Galway, mimes processing the question. Well, she said, it's quite complicated. Like, there's a lot of history there, between the two countries. Like, there's a lot going on.

We begin deep within a wet, gaping orifice-a laryngeal canal so red and glistening it almost looks diseased. As we rush up and out of it, we hear a jarring, Tarzan-like scream, and we arrive, face to face, with a meaty, waggling tongue, glinting teeth, bulging eyes, and a thin, twitching mustache. These startling human features belong to a round gray moon, whose cratered surface recalls the acne-scarred cheeks of, say, a fortyish weirdo who still lives with his elderly mother.

For a task this difficult, you need someone whose pleasant blandness can sell the fact that billions of mind-melded Others are going to be slurping down their liquified neighbors and there's nothing the dozen or so conscious and unchanged people can do about it. You need someone whose energy is that of an enthusiastic golden retriever, whose aura is a turquoise blend of compassion and comprehensibility, and whose dimples are as pleasantly textured as warm focaccia.

Widely considered one of, if not, the best anime series of all time, Cowboy Bebop is a sci-fi western about bounty hunters Spike and Jet, who eke out a living chasing down targets across the solar system. Throughout the series, their crew expands to include the femme fatale Faye Valentine, young hacker Ed, and a super-genius Welsh Corgi named Ein. As the ragtag group completes various jobs on behalf of shadowy clients, they eventually find themselves entangled in a multi-planetary conspiracy.

In the harsh light of day, it makes perfect sense that the last people of note out on the floor at New York's Culturati 50 event were cover star Parker Posey, making space to do high kicks in her flowy green dress, and the Dare, telling anyone who will listen that the first thing he did when he woke up that morning was listen to the new Audrey Hobert.

This isn't a new phenomenon. Hate-watching, which we'll generously call ironic viewing, has been documented since the 1990s, though it's probably always been around and has reached its peak thanks to social media and to streaming, which lets you binge-watch episodes. There's no longer time to wonder whether you really want to keep wasting your time on a show you only watch so you can mock it.

Fans noticed that Eleven's training outfit - a gray cropped sweatshirt and matching sweatpants layered under teeny shorts - looked remarkably like Josh Brolin's character's in The Goonies, leading many to suspect this was the inspiration. And they're right. "I loved referencing real fashion trends," says Parris, who took over the ST costume department by the third season. "It was a blip of a trend, [but] shorts-over-sweats was a thing. That happened."

#heatedrivalry Heated Rivalry originally was gonna be a 2 hour movie so we would have only seen Hunter and Kip for 5 mins!

"I've seen her," Carr says on the episode. "It was very harsh and so grim killing her, but we are friends again now."
