#86 - Little Fires Everywhere, Homecoming, and Pandora
18 mei 2020 · 1 uur 15 min
We didn't start the fire... but we're pretty sure we know who did in Amazon's Little Fires Everywhere. Plus we try desperately to figure out what in creation is going on in Season 2 of Homecoming (it helps if you've seen Season 1, trust us), and we strap Terri down and force her to sit through SyFy's new budget outing, Pandora. It goes about as well as you'd imagine. All that and we manage to not only sum up the best series you can watch in a single day but James (reluctantly) agrees to take on the Gogglebox challenge, which is destined to end badly for everyone.

#85 - I Know This Much Is True, Hightown, and Dave
11 mei 2020 · 1 uur 24 min
It's a double dose of Mark Ruffalo this week as he takes on twin duties in HBO’s preternaturally depressing adaptation of Wally Lamb's I Know This Much Is True. Plus we head out to Cape Cod with Monica Raymund in cop drama Hightown and rap along with Dave Burd (who seems unhealthily obsessed with his own genitals) in FX comedy Dave. Plus there's some fun with names in this week's listener question, we engage in some spoiler-free discussion of the Homeland (Woo!) and Westworld (Boo!) finales, and James makes a rather disturbing revelation about Gloria Estefan...

#84 - Hollywood, The Eddy, and Brassic
4 mei 2020 · 1 uur 19 min
All three of us take the opportunity this week to gush liberally over our experiences watching the rest of Normal People (Marianne! Connell! All the feels!). After that, we finally manage to bring your our review of Ryan Murphy's Tinseltown fairytale, Hollywood; take a look at Jack Thorne and Damien Chazelle's Parisian jazz series, The Eddy; and witness the triumphant return of Joe Gilgun's Brassic. Plus we entirely fail to come up with an agreed set of rules for naming our favourite shows on each streaming service. Lees meer

27 april 2020 · 1 uur 38 min

All that and James bangs on about season 4 of The Last Kingdom. Because of course he does. Lees meer

20 april 2020 · 2 uur 13 min
Ricky Gervais is our guest on this week's show in a truly mammoth interview with Boyd about series 2 of After Life. As well as reviewing that show, we also tackle the heroically violent Gangs Of London from the director of The Raid, Gareth Evans, get into some courtroom drama with Chris Evans in Defending Jacob and feast our eyes on the Beeb's adaptation of Normal People. Plus a discussion (with photographic proof) of our three hosts' youth, back in the days when Boyd and James had hair and Terri was... well, still Terri. Lees meer

13 april 2020 · 1 uur 44 min
Matthew Macfadyen & Sian Clifford stop by the pod this week to discuss ITV's Quiz. Plus it's wall-to-wall reviews as we make up for last week's leaner slate with out takes on Season 3 of Killing Eve (finally!), Alex Garland's twisted mystery Devs, HBO comedy/thriller Run, the aforementioned Quiz and the latest season of Bosch. Plus we take a dive into the world of book series we'd like to see adapted to the small screen and reel off about fifteen bits of different Tiger King news. Lees meer

#80 - Red Dwarf: The Promised Land, Alma's Not Normal, and (not) Killing Eve
6 april 2020 · 1 uur 16 min
It's only smegging Red Dwarf on the podcast this week — a show that Terri had never seen before this *feature-length* episode, much to James and Boyd's collective enjoyment. Plus we review Alma's Not Normal (a sitcom Terri enjoyed far more, but mainly as it appears to have been based upon her life) but sadly *not* Killing Eve Season 3 as, while we've seen it, apparently the embargo doesn't lift until Tuesday. Sorry. On the plus side, there's a trio of Banshees for your enjoyment and a misty-eyed discussion of the best TV theme tunes — including The Raccoons, for some reason. Cyril Sneer would not approve.

#79 - Save Me Too, Tales From The Loop, and Home Before Dark
30 maart 2020 · 1 uur 13 min
The magnificent Lennie James returns to our screens (in a bright yellow puffer jacket, naturally) having written a follow-up to 2018's brilliant Save Me. And that's not all, because this week we're also wrangling with the very fabric of existence with Amazon's Tales From The Loop, and keeping print journalism alive with a tween reporter in Apple's Home Before Dark. Plus the team take the current lockdown to heart, prompting an in-depth discussion of TV's best bottle episodes. Lees meer

#78 - The Mandalorian, Veronica Mars, Hitmen, and Ozark
23 maart 2020 · 1 uur 25 min
It's here! The first socially distanced Pilot TV podcast is live, and not only is it business as usual for Pilot TV during the current pandemic but we also see the triumphant return of Terri White as it turns out that isolation and maternity leave are actually quite compatible. On this week's show we *finally* get to review The Mandalorian as Disney + launches here in the UK, and we *at last* get to see the return of Veronica Mars as it makes a belated appearance here as well. Plus we go murderising with Mel and Sue in Sky's Hitmen and catch up with Jason Bateman in Ozark Season 3. All that and enough banter, random police sirens and general nonsense to keep your minds off all things virus-related for an hour and a half. Enjoy! Lees meer

#77 - Belgravia, The English Game, and Feel Good
16 maart 2020 · 1 uur 28 min
It's a Julian Fellowes double-bill this week as we sit down to high tea with some posh socialites in Belgravia and then set about scoring goals against posh footballers in The English Game. And that's all prior to being thoroughly charmed by Mae Martin and Charlotte Ritchie in Feel Good. Don't worry, though, there's plenty of conflict to balance it all out as Boyd goes all Season 8 Daenerys on James over what they've been watching this week and we talk about the best in apocalyptic TV.

#76 - Westworld, Breeders, and Mrs. Fletcher
9 maart 2020 · 1 uur 45 min
Martin Freeman and Daisy Haggard are our guests this week, stopping by to talk about their parenting comedy Breeders, which features Freeman hurling obscenities at a toddler and calling an alarm clock a c***. We also tackle Sky’s Mrs Fletcher, in which empty nest syndrome collides with hardcore pornography — an incident that unexpectedly spiced up James' commute. And last but by no means least we return to HBO’s Westworld to see whether Lisa Joy and Jonathan Nolan’s show survives its transition to the real world.
If all that wasn’t enough, this week’s listener question leads to a frankly shocking confession from Pilot’s very own Beth Webb. Lees meer -
#75 - Noughts + Crosses, War Of The Worlds, Liar, and The Trip To Greece
2 maart 2020 · 1 uur 25 min
This week's show sees us suiting up for yet another War Of The Worlds, this time in a more contemporary London with Gabriel Byrne on the run from Martian marauders. Plus we explore racial tensions in an alternate reality England with BBC1's Noughts + Crosses, seek nuggets of truth in return of ITV's Liar, and accompany Rob Brydon and Steve Coogan on their latest holiday abroad in The Trip To Greece. Plus we get to hear about Beth's new sideline as a documentarian as she unearths the darker side of streaming services, and Boyd catches us up on what he's been watching, which is apparently everything.

We’re on the lookout for Nazis with Al Pacino this week with Amazon’s Hunters, plus studying the art of incompetent spycraft with David Schwimmer in Intelligence, and taking a break from the bustle of London for a tongue-in-cheek look at Cotswolds life in BBC mockumentary This Country.

Sarah Phelps joins us as a special celebrity co-host on this week's show to talk everything from her latest Agatha Christie adaptation, The Pale Horse to the joys of Mrs Brown's Boys, by way of Baby Yoda sex toys and the logistics of stormtrooper wanking.

27 januari 2020 · 1 uur 40 min
Armando Iannucci is our guest on the podcast this week, telling us about his love of Star Trek, the fundamental flaw in Virgin Atlantic, and why he chose to break with terrestrial affairs and write a show set in a flying dildo (35:44-49:17). Lees meer
Also this week, Boyd explains the secret behind Larry David’s comedy genius as we review Season 10 of Curb Your Enthusiasm and we take a trip to heaven with Daniel Radcliffe and Steve Buscemi in Miracle Workers. Finally, after about 18 months of build-up, James *finally* gets to talk about Star Trek: Picard. Apologies in advance: that bit goes on for a while! 🖖

20 januari 2020 · 1 uur 8 min
Beth Webb stands in for Terri this week as we are prevented from talking about Star Trek: Picard thanks to an inconvenient embargo that we in no way attempt to circumvent by nefarious means. Instead, we hop aboard Armando Iannucci’s new sci-fi show, Avenue 5, embrace the comedy charms of Shrill Season 2 and find out what’s been happening on Netflix’s Chilling Adventures Of Sabrina. Plus you can hear all about how Boyd turned up on Skins and Beth’s attempts to justify her aversion to science fiction. Lees meer

Review Of The Year 2019, featuring Brian Cox
30 december 2019 · 1 uur 59 min
Another year, another raft of exceptional TV shows. If you were wondering what shows you should be watching over the holiday break, curious as to what you missed over the past 12 months or just looking for the single, definitive checklist of everything that should be on your playlist then look no further. James, Terri and Boyd mull over all the best shows of the past 12 months, running down the official Pilot TV Top 20 shows of the year.

Terri's off on holiday this week but Beth Webb bravely attempts to fill her sweary shoes and keep both James and Boyd in line. Lees meer

Rupert Grint makes his Pilot TV Podcast debut this week, stopping by to talk all things Servant.

2 december 2019 · 1 uur 9 min
On the podcast this week we're heavy on the Norse as Terri and Boyd try (and fail) to make sense of Vikings Season 5, Apple's latest drops in the form of Octavia Spencer's podcast-themed Truth Be Told, and we enjoy a 90-minute one-off TV drama (not a film) in BBC1's Elizabeth Is Missing. Plus James prepares everyone for next week's return of The Expanse in *excruciating* detail (01:00:14 - 01:04:42). Lees meer

#63 - Servant, 8 Days, and Upright
25 november 2019 · 1 uur 6 min
It's all creepy nannies with M. Night Shyamalan's Servant this week, then a Teutonic apocalypse in Sky's 8 Days and finally a road trip across Australia with Tim Minchin and a suerprisingly sweary 16 year-old in Upright. Plus Boyd shows off his newfound swearing powers, Terri teaches us some Northern slang and James finally gets to Banshee Utopia.
(Note: The Servant review takes place between 36:02 and 45:54 and is clearly signposted, just in case you want to watch that without knowing what it's about). Lees meer -

Damon Lindelof's Watchmen is the main course on this week's menu, with Jack Thorne's The Accident serving as a tasty (if slightly bitter) starter and Ryan Murphy's Pose perfectly capping it off as the fizzy dessert.

7 oktober 2019 · 1 uur 5 min
It's murder at the school gates this week (not literally) in BBC2's Motherland, more creepy shenanigans from anthology series The Terror, and The Walking Dead returns for its tenth season - yes, that's right, you've been watching these zombies for a full decade now. Plus Terri makes her triumphant return after a week off and James finally gets to put his oar in concerning Amazon's Carnival Row. Oh and it's worth mentioning that this podcast was recorded *before* the new Picard trailer dropped, making this at least three hours shorter than it otherwise would have been and marking a very lucky escape for all of you.

This week we take a look at Mark Strong's mob doctor drama Temple, join Toni Collette for true-crime drama Unbelievable, and get in touch with our inner East End gangsters for Netflix's Drake-starring thriller Top Boy. Also on the podcast this week we've been beset by gremlins! Not literally, of course, but rather the technical kind that meant guest presenter Amon's microphone decided to misbehave. Thanks to some postproduction tinkering, though, we've managed to make him audible but apologies for the fact that one member of our trio does sound like he's at the bottom of a fish tank. Lees meer

#50: Carnival Row, The Affair, The Dark Crystal: Age Of Resistance
27 augustus 2019 · 1 uur
With James Dyer off in America (you might have read about his adventures in Newsweek, or The Daily Mail), Ben Travis slides smoothly into James' vacant seat for this week's episode, joining regular incumbents Terri White and Boyd Hilton for an episode that tackles Orlando Bloom-Cara Delevingne fantasy show, Carnival Row; the Ruth Wilson and Joshua Jackson-free fifth season of The Affair; and the return of the dread Skeksis in puppet-based prequel, The Dark Crystal: Age Of Resistance. Lees meer
They also talk about all the TV news that came out of Disney's D23 convention and, weakened by James' absence, fail to prevent an invasion of the podbooth by an interloper who shall remain nameless, but who wants just one thing: to talk about Blue Bloods. Will this interloper succeed? Find out in this week's episode. Enjoy.

19 augustus 2019 · 1 uur 20 min
The dream team is back together this week as Terri returns from her travels just in time to wax lyrical about Joe Gilgun's Lancashire-set comedy, Brassic. We also delve into the world of Jane Austen with Sanditon and entirely fail to watch the third season of 13 Reasons Why as Netflix didn't show it to us in time. None of that matters, though, as the BBC came through and let us catch up with Tommy Shelby's latest escapades in series 5 of Peaky Blinders. Lees meer

#48 - Succession, NOS4A2, and Deep Water. Featuring guest host Roisin Conaty
11 augustus 2019 · 1 uur 53 min
With Terri on holiday this week, we're thrilled to welcome comedian Roisin Conaty as our guest co-host. The GameFace creator, writer and star joins James and Boyd to chew over everything from Netflix's cancellation of The OA to the twisted genius of The Boys and why This Life was one of the most important shows ever made. Roisin schools James soundly on the essence of comedy during a particularly in-depth Funny Or Dyer, Banshees Blossom and is generally delightful. In addition to upping the star power this week, we dive into the new season of Succession, ITV's Deep Water and the grammatically problematic NOS4A2. Lees meer

#45 - I Am, The Boys, and Orange Is The New Black
22 juli 2019 · 1 uur 33 min
On this week's podcast we not only get bowled over by Dominic Savage's I Am series but also take a look beneath the capes of seedy superheroes in Amazon's The Boys and bid adieu to Orange Is The New Black. And yes, Terri finally watched Downton Abbey. The results may well surprise you... Lees meer
Note: This episode was recorded before San Diego Comic-Con, which is why you'll notice a conspicuous lack of related Picard and Marvel chat. Apologies.

15 juli 2019 · 1 uur 12 min
On the podcast this week find out if Terri did indeed complete the Downton challenge, why James is apparently some kind of smug podcast giraffe, which famousness Boyd had tea with and, lest we forget, what the team thought of this week's trio of (spoiler: very good) shows, specifically: Deadly Class, Better Things and GameFace.

24 juni 2019 · 1 uur 27 min
We have a very special Pilot TV podcast this week as we celebrate Terri's birthday with a Bumper Birthday Banshee Bonanza!

17 juni 2019 · 1 uur 1 min
The star-studded new adaptation of Catch-22 leads the charge in this week's show, ably backed up by series 2 of Dark and series 4 of Gomorrah (which show newbie James could make neither head nor tail of). We also manage to dissect the comedy credentials of Modern Family, play out yet another Banshee segment for your entertainment, and hear all about Terri's past as one of the lesser-known members of the Tattaglia crime family. Plus we reveal the details of our upcoming live show - EXCITING! Lees meer

More pertinently, though, we lay on some truth about Big Little Lies Season 2, get thoroughly disturbed by The Act and listen to an extended Terri rant about ITV's Wild Bill. Plus a bonus literature lesson as James tries to Shakespearsplain poetry. Lees meer
