Jantje Friese and Baran bo Odar signed an exclusive multiple-year overall deal with Netflix when their sci-fi thriller series Dark proved to be a hit for the streaming service. They managed to tell a complete, three season story with that show. But their next series, the epic mystery horror 1899, didn’t fare so well. In fact, 1899 has been cancelled after just one season.

The series creators confirmed the cancellation on social media, releasing the following statement: “With a heavy heart we have to tell you that 1899 will not be renewed. We would have loved to finish this incredible journey with a 2nd and 3rd season as we did with Dark. But sometimes things don’t turn out the way you planned. That’s life. We know this will disappoint millions of fans out there. But we want to thank you from the bottom of our hearts that...

From creator and writer Debbie Horsfield, the Poldark TV show is a historical drama, based on the series of novels by Winston Graham. The story centers on Ross Poldark (Turner).

The deal was brokered by Philippe Louis Galliano of The Movie Agency.

Polish language pic Sword Of God, set during the medieval period, sees two Christian knights arrive at a pagan village, intent on converting the villagers to their religion.

The Doctor attempts to help the Indian Space Agency about a runaway spaceship of Canadian size headed for Earth. Promising to stop it before it needs to be blown up, he picks up a few friends – Rory and Amy (and Rory’s dad, accidentally) big game hunter John Riddell, and already in his company, Queen Nefertiti of Egypt. They find the ship is a derelict space ark, originally from Earth, created by the Silurians. But where are they, and how did a mysterious and heartless trader named Solomon get control of the ship?

Arthur Darvill had it exactly right when he discusses the latest episode of Doctor Who in a promotional video – “It does what it says on the tin”. The Doctor’s got a gang, Amy has her own companions, Rory’s got his dad, Rory’s dad’s got balls in his pants, the ship’s got a surprising builder,...

For many years they waited. Under the ground. Waiting for the moment that they would see the light of day and reign supreme...

Yes, Chris Chibnall's crayon-scribbled Doctor Who scripts locked in a hermetically-sealed time capsule in the late 1970s and dug up and dusted in the 21st century. Well, possibly. Yes, having put us through the wretched 42 , it seems that the man ain't through with us yet. He was invited back to pen a two-part story for Matt Smith's first season, which not only brings back the Silurians but apparently wipes out Amy's gormless whipping-boy once and for all.

It's a shock tactic that could have paid dividends, but in the harsh light of day, it wasn't to be. Which makes my original take on the story somewhat laughable, given that a good story was supposedly elevated to classic status because of an ending that just...

Children are chased by pterodactyls. Meredith Kieira, speaks of Emperor Churchill (Ian McNeice). There's a Roman centurion on guard outside the Palace, but it's not Rory (Arthur Darvill). Churchill is being attended by Mahlokeh (the Silurian doctor from 5.8 The Hungry Earth and 5.9 Cold Blood) and he asks why the time is always 5:02 and the date is also stuck. He summons the Soothsayer held in the Tower. Enter the Doctor (Matt Smith) all beard and chains.

Eldane: "This is the story of our planet, of Earth. The day - a thousand years past when we came to share it with a race known as humanity. It is the story of the Doctor who helped our races find common ground and the terrible losses he suffered. It is the story of our past and must never be forgotten." The Doctor (Matt Smith) notes the race is still asleep and they need to find the others. The front door approach is good, but the backdoor is better too, at times. The Silurians gas them.
