Vladimir to Hoppers: the week in rave reviews
"Rachel Weisz is unfailingly brilliant in this perfect adaptation of a blackly comic 2022 novel that sees her college professor falling for Leo Woodall as a hot younger colleague. Vladimir is that rare visitor to the screen proper television for proper grownups."
"David Harbour stars alongside Jason Bateman and Linda Cardellini in a deliciously dark dating app drama which is uncomfortably familiar after his real-life Lily Allen fallout. You may well find yourself DTFinishing the whole thing in a single watch."
"This three-part docuseries about British war correspondent John Cantlie who was kidnapped by IS and is believed to have died in an airstrike is jaw-dropping stuff. This is not the reverent tribute we might expect for a man whose vocation is usually held in high esteem."
"This Rafe Spall-starring tale of the investigation into a small boy's death is a compelling, psychologically astute watch which constantly pulls the rug out from under you. It's a series that is good at subverting expectations at every turn, not least in its delicate evocation of grief."
