Summary
Dad core reigns this week as we head over to Prime video for season 2 of Cross (55:24), then pivot to ITV for MI5 thriller Betrayal (1:06:55). Plus we peer into the psyche of Mackenzie Crook for his quirky new homunculus comedy Small Prophets (1:17:49). Meanwhile, Boyd beams in live from Santa Monica to give us a full rundown of Apple’s 2026 slate. And, if you’ve ever wondered where a good place to star bingeing Star Trek is then look no further because that question gets answered in forensic detail as the team wrestle over a suitable on-ramp and whether Steph’s love of Enterprise shoudl disqualify her from the discussion entirely.
