Pluribus, All Her Fault, and Wild Cherry. With guest Jack Whitehall
We get nothing from Malice from guest Jack Whitehall this week, who chats with Boyd about his new show. Malice (20:57-35:20). But on the rest of the pod, we’re all sweetness and light, mainly as we not only have a new Vince Gilligan show to watch, in the form of Pluribus on Apple TV (1:07:57), but it’s a show that depicts humanity at its happiest… with a cost. Outside this jaunt into the world of sci-fi, we follow Sarah Snook and Dakota Fanning in the hunt for a missing boy in All Her Fault on Sky (47:42), and glimpse into the lives of the filthy rich in Wild Cherry on BBC1 (58:28). (Episode 362)Note: time stamps are approximate as the ads throw them out, so are only meant as a guide.

Down Cemetery Road, I Love LA, and Robin Hood. With guest Ruth Wilson
Ruth Wilson in uncovering a conspiracy this week, both in Down Cemetery Road on Apple TV (1:02:18), and on this very podcast, for she is this week’s guest (33:12-48:43). Plus we’re back among the branches of Sherwood for Robin Hood on MGM+ (1:14:37), and hanging out with some friends reunited in I Love LA on Sky Comedy (1:22:23). And yes, while Boyd and Kay do insist on some Traitors discussion (as well as something to do with knitting), James was absolutely attentive and listened to every word. Mostly. We think.

It: Welcome To Derry, Trigger Point, and Art Detectives. With guest Stephen Merchant
Stephen Merchant joins us on the show this week, not only chatting to James about his recent zombie apocalypse debut in The Walking Dead: Daryl Dixon, but ruminating on comedy, rhyming slang, the legacy of The Office and 24. Plus, we follow the exploits of some we’re hanging out with some very different Derry girls (and boys) in It: Welcome to Derry on Sky, take in a little fine art with Art Detectives on U&Drama, and find out if booms still shake the room in series 3 of Trigger Point on ITV.

Leonard And Hungry Paul, The Forsytes, and The Ridge. With guests Harlan Coben and Bill Nighy
We have a Lazarus double bill this week as both showrunner Harlan Coben and Star Bill Nighy drop by for separate (but thematically connected) chats about the new Prime Video thriller (which is embargoed, so we’ll be reviewing it on Pilot+). Plus we go abseiling with Lauren Lyle in The Ridge on BBC2, head back to posh Victorian England with The Forsytes on Channel 5, and get a little ASMR from Julia Roberts in Leonard And Hungry Paul on BBC2. Elsewhere, Kay enquires as to just what it takes to make us all stop watching a show, and James issues a public apology. (Episode 359)

Riot Women, The Iris Affair, and Monster: The Ed Gein Story. With guests Sally Wainwright, Adjani Salmon & Ali Hughes
Kay rapidly wishes she’d never returned from holiday after coming back to this week’s show as she discovers that Boyd hasn’t saved her a copy of his book. But that’s at least partially made up for by the fact that she gets to talk to the legendary Sally Wainwright about her new BBC show Riot Women (1:09:56-1:24:35), which we also review. Plus Adjani Salmon and Ali Hughes are on to chat the latest series of BBC3’s excellent Dreaming Whilst Black (35:45-56:43). Elsewhere, we tackle Sky’s new thriller with Niamh Algar and Tom Hollander, The Iris Affair, plus Ryan Murphy’s latest series of Monster (albeit the first season without actual Ryan Murphy), which sees Charlie Hunnam as serial killer Ed Gein (1:24:35).
