The Stephen King adaptations continue to roll in, the latest being this adaptation of his cheery 1979 Richard Bachman novel The Long Walk. Did we go along for the stroll though, or would we grind to a halt?

We're about as far on now from Tremors, as that was from 1954's Them! when it came out in 1990 - but are giant worms in the Sierra Nevada still such a fun concept in 2025?

Our imaginary reboot of Doctor Who, created entirely from remakes of stories of the past, finds itself under the auspices of a new showrunner - and with a new Doctor in the form of Michelle Terry

It's over half a century now since the Doctors' timelines first crossed in something resembling what we might know now as an "anniversary special", and certainly the lustre has come off The Three Doctors somewhat in those fifty-odd years - according to some reports at least. But how does it stand up five decades on? The randomiser has decided we take a look

When we discovered that Zack Snyder and James Gunn, the two titans of DC, were both credited on the 2004 remake of George Romero's Dawn of the Dead, we just had to investigate. And then when we noticed that the creator of the Final Destination franchise had also been partly responsible for the remake of follow-up Day of the Dead four years later, we decided to watch that one too.

Paul Thomas Anderson has made what Wiki are describing as a "black comedy action thriller film", but would we find it as hard to describe how we felt about One Battle After Another as they struggled to say what it is?

Ron Howard's latest is set among German colonists on the Galapagos Islands between the wars of the last century, with Sydney Sweeney, Ana de Armas and Vanessa Kirby (not to mention Jude Law) falling out in the Equatorial sun. What could possibly go wrong?

Philip Hinchcliffe might have suggested that Mary Whitehouse was "somewhat over-hysterical", but Barry Letts admitted that when she complained about Doctor Who, the viewing figures went up. So was the temptation in the mid-1970s to push the series too far in order to attract viewers? And how far is too far?

Ian Fleming's debut novel Casino Royale has been adapted for the screen three times, in wildly different versions. After having spoken about the other two, we decided it was time to take a look at the first, a live US TV play broadcast while the novel was barely off the press.

The star of Four Weddings, the writer of Andor, Carrie from Sex and the City, the director of Seven Up! and Gene Hackman - not to mention produced by Elizabeth Hurley - is quite the line-up of talent. Can Extreme Measures live up to its promise?

The randomiser brings us to Earth in 2164 (or so), exactly-ish two centuries in the future after a plague has wiped out the majority of the population of the planet and it's almost like WWII never stopped happening. But will the BBC manage to convey all this from the confines of a little TV studio?

There's been a lot of love for the recent Tim Key comedy about a reclusive music fan who tries to get his favourite folk duo back together again. But what would we make of it?

The randomiser has chosen the Series 2 finale of Torchwood, Doctor Who's first major spin-off drama, for us to take a look at - but will it fare any better than the Series 1 finale as chosen by the very random randomiser just a few weeks ago?

You might think script editor Eric Saward's tenure on Doctor Who coincided with a period of calm rather than controversy, but we're here to pull back the covers and see if we can't find something to that doesn't smell quite right
