The Walking Dead is over! Well, the first season, and the second is on the way. And with the possible exception of the fourth, I’ve really enjoyed them all. As new series launches go, this must qualify as a successful one, in terms of both fan opinion and cold numbers. Ratings in the states have … [Read more...]

Earlier this week I gave you a roundup of some of the best Christmas decorations for geeks.

So I give you, not one, but two free patterns to get you crafting up a storm … [Read more...]
The best Christmas decorations for geeks
It can't have failed to escape your notice that Christmas is now well and truly on its way. Not only are people roaming the streets with mugs of mulled wine and German sausages in hand, but the Coca-Cola advert is back on our screens which is a surefire way to tell the holiday season will shortly be … [Read more...]
Misifts: Series 2, Episode 3 – Dork Review
In the formulaic world of British TV drama, Misfits often stands alone, thanks to its unpredictability and sheer bad taste. And this week, it launches itself from the pack again by virtually resolving the big mystery of the year in the third episode. Maybe I’ve been beaten into submission by … [Read more...]
Merlin: The Sorcerer’s Shadow – Dork Review
One notable change in this series of Merlin has been the scarcity of big name guest stars. In earlier years, scarcely a week would go by without someone from another high profile BBC show turning up. And remember when Isaac from Heroes was cast as Lancelot? Good times. This year, however, the … [Read more...]
Harry Potter And The Deathly Hallows: Part 1 – Dork Review
So, the prolonged death rattle of Harry Potter begins. A shrieking gurgle that starts in November 2010 and may finally croak its last in July 2011, unless J.K. Rowling announces she’ll churn out another novel. But assuming that doesn’t happen, this is the first in a two-part adaptation of the … [Read more...]
Merlin: Queen Of Hearts – Dork Review
After barely appearing last time, there’s a lot more Gwen in this week’s Merlin. Because, after two years of light teasing, this episode finally tackles her obvious attraction to that dashing Prince Arthur head-on. So, can love prosper across the class divide? Will Camelot society change, or once … [Read more...]
The Walking Dead: Guts – Dork Review
The second episode of The Walking Dead sees the show lumber onwards, barely missing a step. We rejoin our hero exactly where we left him, and soon a bunch of new survivors join in. Which is good, as although I like Andrew Lincoln, a whole series of him staring dejectedly would’ve got old. So, … [Read more...]
Merlin: Love In The Time Of Dragons – Dork Review
It’s been a short while since the last time a Merlin character fell for someone untrustworthy, so here we go again. This week, physician and father figure Gaius is smitten when a woman from his past turns up, but she has gone through some changes since the good old days. Sorry if that counts as a … [Read more...]
Misfits – Series Two Is Coming
The new series of Misfits is almost here, starting on E4 on Thursday 11th November. Which means more unvarnished super-power abuse, twisted humour and, somehow, weirdly touching moments. I personally enjoyed the hell out of that show, as indicated by the impassioned ode to Misfits that I posted … [Read more...]
