The Netflix series Baby Reindeerhas earned critical acclaim since its debut. Detailing star Richard Gadd's side of his story, the series is based on an instance where Gadd was stalked by a woman and his response to it. It is compelling and, at times, hard to watch. Now, Gadd has shared that the streaming platform originally wanted another episode to the series. Instead of the 7 episodes we got, he says that Netflix wanted 8, with the last episode hoping to be a little lighter given the context of the show. However, Gadd fought to keep it at the 7 episodes that were ultimately released.

Gadd was at Future Vision 2025 in Melbourne, Australia and reportedly said that he was behind the lack of an eighth episode. The Sydney Morning Herald and Variety reported the news that Gadd said the network felt the ending of the series needed a bit of "light relief" to close it out.

Baby Reindeercreator and star Richard Gadd has revealed that an entire episode was cut from the miniseries. Released on Netflix in 2024, Baby Reindeer is based on the disturbing true story of Gadd's own experiences. Gadd plays Donny Dunn, a struggling writer-comedian who is relentlessly stalked and harassed by a woman named Martha.

The series was a huge hit, with Baby Reindeer holding onto the #1 spot in Netflix's Top 10 TV English titles for its second, third, and fourth weeks (after debuting at #5). It was also an awards darling, taking home six Primetime Emmy Awards, including three for Gadd himself.

While Baby Reindeer is a tight seven episodes, Gadd recently shared that an entire episode was cut from the series. Speaking at the Future Vision television summit in Melbourne, Australia, Gadd said that there was originally a Baby Reindeer episode set in Scotland that he successfully fought to cut (via The Sunday...

Richard Gaad cut an entire episode from Baby Reindeer that was meant to inject some levity into the hit series, but wound up deflating the tension too much.

At the Future Vision television conference in Melbourne (via Variety), Gadd explained the planned episode would’ve found his character, Donny Dunn, leaving London and his stalker, Martha Scott (Jessica Gunning), and returning to Scotland to visit family. Much of the story would’ve centered around Donny and his father (played by Mark Lewis Jones) attending a soccer game.

The idea for the episode came during development,...

Richard Gadd has revealed that he actively pushed to eliminate a complete episode from his Netflix breakout “Baby Reindeer,” confirming the existence of what would have been an eighth episode.

At the Future Vision television conference in Melbourne, the Emmy-winning writer told attendees he personally advocated for cutting a Scotland-based episode during the show’s development phase.

Network executives had suggested including lighter material to offset the series’ intense stalking narrative, leading to the creation of an episode where Gadd’s character Donny Dunn escapes to his Scottish homeland to visit family.

“When we were developing it, there was the note that kept coming in about the show being too dark,” Gadd told interviewer Tony Ayres at Acmi Theatre. “You need to give the audience a respite from it all.”

The omitted episode centered on Donny’s retreat from London and his stalker Martha Scott, featuring significant screen time with...

Tara Fitzgerald loved the “poeticism” of 'Portraits of Dangerous Women' director Pascal Bargamin.The 57-year-old actress plays Tina in the Swiss filmmaker’s comedy drama film about three women - school caretaker Tina, unhappy teacher Steph (Jeany Spark) and smart teenager Ashley (Yasmin Monet Prince) - who are thrown together when two of them both run over a dog in their separate cars and she admitted the helmsman’s passion and connection with his cast was one of the reasons why she said yes to the project.She exclusively told Bang Showbiz: “He’s very passionate. Super smart. He has a sort of poeticism and sort of understands artists. “I think that’s a very big draw about the film - it talks about artists. I think it’s a very important part of my life. And he has that sensitivity. “But he’s also really good at...

Portraits of Dangerous Women transports viewers to a strange narrative realm that questions established storytelling conventions. The film, directed by Swiss filmmaker Pascal Bergamin, revolves around an unpleasant road event involving a dog that brings together three women: an unhappy teacher, a strange caretaker, and a troubled artist. This arrangement feels fanciful and perplexing, reminiscent of Jean-Luc Godard’s humorous narrative technique.

Bergamin balances between hilarity and poignant moments, reflecting contemporary cultural fears about connection and authenticity. The cinematography captures the grandeur of rural Britain, while the editing incorporates jarring shifts that mirror the characters’ shattered lives. This unique design highlights the themes of disconnection and unexpected friendship in the film.

Finally, Portraits of Dangerous Women bridges the gap between indie and mainstream cinema, providing a new viewpoint on how we relate to one another in an unpredictable world. It is a reminder of the film’s ability to mirror societal complexities,...

Three unlikely women are pitched together by a muddled plot with results that are short on both drama and comedy

This bafflingly peculiar and lifeless dramedy comes from Swiss film-maker Pascal Bergamin, who is based in Zurich and London and has released some English-language work in the past. This film has a rural British setting with British characters played by British actors, but it has the feel of something Google-translated from another project, perhaps with a European setting; there is a repeated and weirdly emphatic reference to two art dealers from the German town of Cottbus, mysterious individuals who never appear on screen, and whose existence does not serve any satisfying or interesting purpose.

But that objection could be raised against every single character in the film. A strange – and strangely unconvincing – event brings three women together. Steph (Jeany Spark) is an unhappy teacher; Tina (Tara Fitzgerald) is a...

The British are ruling Netflix, at least when it comes to the streaming charts. According to Netflix CEO Ted Sarandos (via Deadline), the streamer's top four most-watched series for the first half of the year all hailed from across the pond. Episodes of Netflix's British hits Fool Me Once, Bridgerton, The Gentlemen, and Baby Reindeer collectively racked up 360 million views from January through June 2024. These numbers and the streamer's other most-watched shows for the first half of the year will be released by Netflix later this week.

Sarando spoke on the numbers while appearing at the Royal Television Society London Convention, where he also sang the British entertainment industry's praises, calling the UK "one of the best countries in the world for TV and film." Despite lagging behind the BBC in the UK market, Sarandos expressed optimism about reaching a 25% market share by keeping "the audience upfront." According to an August report from Deadline,...

Winning Time: The Rise of the Lakers Dynasty...

It’s that time of year again, when the TV academy announces its annual list of Emmy nominations, and “Outlander” fans worldwide are left scratching their heads wondering why their favorite show was left off of the list. Part 1 of Season 7 aired in 2023 from June 16 to August 11 on Starz, which makes it eligible for the 2024 Emmys. But alas, on Tuesday morning, the fantasy epic was not nominated in any category — moment of silence, please.

To be clear, “Outlander” hasn’t been nominated in any Emmy category in the past six years. It was last cited in 2018 for Best Period Costumes, losing to “The Crown.” It also lost that same race in 2016 to “Game of Thrones.” Its only other bids were for Best Period Production Design in 2016, losing to “Downton Abbey,” and Best Music Composition in 2015, losing to “House of Cards.”

The list of egregious snubs through the years includes lead...

The history of Hollywood adapting video games in movies and TV shows has been a little spotty, to say the least, but in recent years, I think the tide has been turning. With shows like The Last of Us and Fallout, video game fans have developed a little hope to see their favorite adapted into a great piece of art and while there will still be wasted efforts like Netflix’s The Witcher and Paramount+’s Halo, they are still only two shows. So, in keeping with that spirit of hope we created a list of the 10 best TV shows that were adapted from video games, they can be original stories in the world of video games but they have to be connected to the original IP.

Knuckles (Paramount+ & Prime Video Add-On)

Knuckles is a comedy-adventure series created by John Whittington and Toby Ascher. Based on the Sonic the Hedgehog...

Richard Gadd’s Baby Reindeer finds stand-up comedian Donny (Gadd) living with his ex-girlfriend’s mother (Nina Sosanya) and working at a Camden pub to supplement his failing career. When, one day, Martha (Jessica Gunning), an overweight middle-aged woman who claims to be a successful lawyer but can’t afford a cup of tea, sits down at the bar, Donny offers it to her on the house. That cup of tea will initiate a years-long “relationship” that will initially flatter Donny’s ego but later prove to be both degrading and petrifying.

The series was adapted from Gadd’s autobiographical one-man stage show of the same name, and the actor-writer lends Donny such a piercingly unique voice. Gadd narrates his own horror story with a snappy matter-of-factness, like he’s reluctant to ruminate on one stomach-churning detail for too long before moving on to the next, and a self-awareness that’s never navel-gazing.

There are few shows on television quite like “Baby Reindeer.” The fact that Richard Gadd’s dramatic miniseries dropped on Netflix with little to no promotion makes it feel even more distinct.

Based on Gadd’s autobiographical one-man show of the same name, the seven-episode series follows Donny Dunn, an aspiring standup comedian and current bartender who makes the grave mistake of offering a woman a cup of tea on the house. That nice gesture upends his world, as “Baby Reindeer” chronicles one woman’s growing obsession with him, the complexities of both having a stalker and being flattered by her attention, and how Donny’s view of himself came to be so low. Both unflinchingly honest and at times bizarre, the series follows in the footsteps of art such as Michaela Coel’s “I May Destroy You,” Hannah Gadsby’s “Nannette” and Abby McEnany’s “Work in Progress.”

Get ready for the highly anticipated premiere of “The Way” on BBC One, airing at 9:00 Pm on Monday, February 19th, 2024. In Season 1 Episode 1, titled “The War,” viewers are plunged into a gripping tale of family dynamics, personal struggles, and unforeseen challenges.

The episode follows Geoff, a man grappling with the aftermath of his separation from his wife, Dee. His world is turned upside down when he is unexpectedly confronted by someone from his past, forcing him to confront long-buried emotions and unresolved issues.

Meanwhile, their daughter, Thea, finds herself pushed to the limit as she navigates the complexities of her relationship with her brother, Owen, who is battling the world around him. As tensions escalate and emotions run high, a shocking event sends panic rippling through the community, leaving everyone reeling in its wake.

Amidst the chaos, a heated meeting sparks a strike, further intensifying the turmoil and uncertainty gripping the town.

Playwright James Graham has teamed up with Michael Sheen for three part BBC drama, The Way. Here’s the trailer.

Michael Sheen has spent a good portion of his career playing real-life figures, perhaps most notably David Frost in Ron Howard’s film version of Peter Morgan’s Frost/Nixon.

He has also played journalist Robbie Ross in Wilde, writer Jeremy Dyson in The League Of Gentlemen’s Apocalypse, Chris Tarrant in Who Wants To Be A Millionaire? scandal drama Quiz and he played a heightened version of himself opposite David Tennant in Staged. He’s about to take on the role of Aneurin “Nye” Bevan in Tim Price’s play Nye at the National Theatre. Likewise, James Graham often writes political plays based around recent events.

The two have now teamed up for BBC drama The Way, which although it takes its inspiration from real events, follows fictional characters.

The synopsis reads as follows:

Ambitious,...

Separated siblings, bullied children, horrible accidents and Marc Bolan’s death are only some of the tragedies here, but strong performances keep the horrors watchable

This Wales, Liverpool and London-set drama is a proper melodrama any way you slice it, but one with strong enough performances and sufficiently good dialogue to keep it from feeling tacky. The first chunk of expository scene-setting shuttles back and forth between the 1970s and the present day, establishing a sunny comic tone that’s suddenly pierced by tragedy. In the 70s, a coachload of kids from a children’s home are travelling to see their favourite band, T Rex, chaperoned by the home’s vicar (Andrew Lancel) and cheery carer Simon. The vicar’s daughter Penny (Eden Beach), about 10 years old, is close with home-resident Sadie (Amelia Rose Smith) and Sadie’s shy older brother Jimmy (Isaac Lancel-Watkinson), who is bullied by the older boys.

The Reckoning, a new biopic about Jimmy Savile, brings back trauma for many, focusing on the shocking revelation of his double life as an abuser. The series will likely be watched by a majority of English audiences, forcing victims to relive their trauma and potentially attracting victim-shaming. The choice of the BBC as the platform for the series is controversial, as they were Savile's employer and would now profit from his crimes, leading to boycotts and mixed reactions from viewers.

There are some news stories that take people’s breath away for all the wrong reasons. No case has been more shocking than that of Jimmy Savile. Now, nearly ten years after the truth came out about this supposed paragon of virtue, ITV will be airing a biopic about the troubled star.

The Reckoning brings back years-old trauma for many people. But why is the story of this once-beloved presenter so disturbing?...

The BBC’s controversial Jimmy Savile drama The Reckoning will be handed its long-awaited premiere in the autumn, while it has unveiled more cast and a first-look image.

Joining Coogan are BAFTA-winner Gemma Jones (Marvellous), Siobhan Finneran (Happy Valley), Mark Lewis Jones (Outlander) and Mark Stanley (Happy Valley).

The BBC has also unveiled a first-look image (top), in which Coogan portraying the posthumously-outed serial sex offender can be seen smoking one of his famous cigars ponderously staring out the window.

Produced by ITV Studios, penned by Neil McKay and EP’d by Jeff Pope, the four-part series will trace Savile’s life through the decades. He was one of the BBC’s most popular presenters when alive but in death was outed as using his involvement in multiple organizations, such as the BBC, hospitals, prisons, and charities, to legitimise himself, forging friendships in showbusiness, politics, journalism, the Catholic Church and...

[Warning: The below contains Major spoilers for Outlander Season 7 Episode 4, “A Most Uncomfortable Woman.”] Outlander‘s latest installment has sent Claire (Caitriona Balfe) and Jamie Fraser (Sam Heughan) north to Fort Ticonderoga, as they join the rebels on the American Revolutionary War front — but not before a shocking reunion took place in Wilmington. Intending to travel to Scotland, the Frasers find themselves changing course, particularly Jamie who is conscripted into the fight. Fresh off of losing their home at Fraser’s Ridge to a fire, they’re still coming to terms with the situation and this shift in their plans. While completing errands around town though, Claire bumps into none other than Tom Christie (Mark Lewis Jones), who she assumed was dead; he took the fall for Malva’s (Jessica Reynolds) murder in the first episode, allowing Claire to be released from prison. What’s more startling is that Tom doesn’t utter a word but plants...

The Droughtlander is over! Outlander has returned to Starz, and the Fraser family is reckoning with the reality that they cannot hide from the Revolutionary War. Everyone will have to make the choice to join the fight or stay out of it.

Den Of Geek spoke to showrunner Maril Davis and returning actors Sophie Skelton, Richard Rankin, David Berry, and John Bell, plus new to this season actors Charles Vandervaart, Joey Phillips, and Izzy Meikle-Small, to get the behind-the-scenes scoop on how Outlander is bringing a character-focused perspective to history that viewers are already familiar with.

Although Outlander Season 7 is split into two halves, all 16 episodes were filmed together, which Davis admits she initially found daunting. “I thought it would be worse than it was,” she says. “I thought season one was a challenge. I...

We’ve already seen love for Outlander‘s Claire bring one man back from the dead. In Friday’s episode, it kinda happened again.

While the Frasers spent some time in Wilmington, N.C., ahead of their planned journey to Scotland, Claire literally bumped into someone she thought was a ghost: Tom Christie, the Ridge resident who falsely confessed to murder in order earlier this season to save Claire from being tried and hanged for the crime.

Tom Christie is alive. His quick wits saved him in much the same way they worked to free Claire Fraser, saving her life.

During a recent press day, we had the chance to speak with Mark Lewis Jones about Tom's motivations and what it was like playing the enigmatic character who has fallen deeply in love with Claire.

He shared many great insights about the story and the complexities of Tom Christie. I hope you enjoy the conversation.

Tom Christie is a very complex man with a very strong moral code. How did that play into giving his life in exchange for Claire's?

Yeah. It's a big journey, isn't it?

It is.

From where we first meet Tom to where we end up. I guess you do it bit by bit, and it's a very slow reveal. Those scenes in Series Six are great fun to play, even though he...

My prayers at the altar of Dougal MacKenzie, patron saint of bushy eyebrows, have been answered: Starz’s Outlander chose to condense the Great Dismal Swamp part of An Echo in the Bone so greatly, it all fits into a small piece of this week’s episode, thank sweet baby Jesus H. Roosevelt Christ.

You all know I love Diana Gabaldon’s books. I’m usually very happy to meander wherever she wants to take me, and for however many pages she sees fit. But the chunk of her seventh Outlander novel that takes place in the Great Dismal Swamp just feels interminable.

Starz’s Outlander season seven episode three ended with a few emotional goodbyes (including one between cat mom Claire and Adso) as Jamie, Claire, and Ian began their journey to Scotland. The teaser promo for episode four, “A Most Uncomfortable Woman,” shows that journey will be interrupted by unexpected reunions.

Episode four was directed by Jackie Gould from a script by Marque Franklin William. “A Most Uncomfortable Woman” will air on Friday, July 7, 2023.

Featuring some of the biggest names in F1, it follows Nigel Mansell and the Williams Racing team’s rise to fame told through the eyes of his team, family and drivers including Jenson Button, Damon Hill and Karun Chandhok.

Mansell grew up in England in the 1960s, dreaming of becoming a professional race car driver, despite not having the financial means for it, while Frank Williams was realizing his own dream at the company he founded, Williams Grand Prix Engineering. The two joined forces, and after years of trying to win together, Mansell left to join Ferrari and then ultimately retired from racing after years of ups and downs, without ever winning the Formula One Drivers’ Championship. But seemingly overnight, he came out of retirement and re-joined Williams Racing.

Starz’s Outlander season seven episode two ended with the big house going up in flames. The teaser for episode three, “Death Be Not Proud,” shows the Frasers are alive and well, but someone in their community has died.

The promo video also provides a brief look at Brianna and Roger in their own time and reveals that Jamie has had another dream of Claire in the 20th century.

Season seven episode three was directed by Jacquie Gould from a script by Tyler English-Beckwith. “Death Be Not Proud” will air on June 30, 2023.
