#23 - Traitors, Flack and Curfew

Author: Empire Magazine February 17, 2019 Duration: 1:04:59
This week we enter the world of treason and espionage for Channel 4's WWII spy thriller Traitors, join Anna Paquin as she heads to the front lines in a very different kind of war as a celebrity publicist in Flack, plus Curfew sees Sean Bean do The Fast And The Furious in London... with zombies. All that and we come up with a new regular (involving James and comedies), lay some love upon Band Of Gold and Family Tree, plus resurrect Jack Thorne's supernatural drama The Fades.
