Warning: contains major spoilers forGame Of ThronesSeason 8 Episode 5, The Bells. Who died? And loads of soldiers and civilians.Loads. That cant have been filmed in Dubrovnik? Quite right, it wasnt. It was hidden behind a 5-shipping container-high wall to protect the set from drone and paparazzi photography. Were there any Easter Eggs hidden in the city design? Bless you for asking. Thatmustbe a record for the number of stunt people set on fire?...

Cersei Lannister, Malory Archer, Kelly Burkhardt and more. These TV moms deserve more than a bunch of flowers come Mothers' Day… Warning: This article contains spoilers forGame of Thrones, Grimm, Supernatural, Battlestar Galactica, andThe X-Files.

She might not always do the right thing, but she always has her sons best interests at heart....

Mortal Kombat 11 is pure gold at its bloody heart, but the bells and whistles don’t impress. Our US chums reviewed the PS4 version… Is this latest outing an evolution for the studio or has NetherRealm already perfected the formula? The game certainly isnt perfect, but it gets the important stuff right. The core gameplay is arguably the best its ever been. Mainly, the gameplay feels a bit slower, but also more hard-hitting....

Warning: contains major spoilers for Game of Thrones Season 8 Episode 4,The Last of the Starks. This article comes from Den of Geek UK. What does Dany whisper in Ser Jorahs ear? Whats the significance of the brooch Sansa pins on Theon? Not for fear that theyd come back as wights. Jons good at speeches, isnt he? He is, but hes also a bit of a thieving magpie. Whats the history of Gendrys new home, Storms End?...

Taskmaster, the comedy series Horne co-presents with Greg Davies on Dave,inspires enthusiasm. (Though given the human-heart-in-a-jar tendencies, perhaps healthy isnt quite the word.) How did you get him to agree when there wasnt anything to show him? I loveTaskmasters origin story. You always say that you dreamt it up inspired by jealousy of Tim Keys Perrier award. That is kind of my stock answer to that, but it is genuinely true!...

Who would winthe War of the Roses? Henry VII was born Henry Tudor to Edmund Tudor and Lady Margaret Beaufort. But more important to Henry than his Tudor name was his mothers heritage. The great-granddaughter of John of Gaunt and his third wife (i.e. longtime mistress), Henrys claim to fabled Plantagenet blood was dubious at best. And with support coalescing around Henry, he had to move into the French court for support....

Hes just the wildcard, smoldering in hellfire on the sidelines while reality hangs in the balance. Hes like ifMarveldecided to makeVenomits mascot. The result was three of the most popular characters in the franchise. Ad content continues below Another reason Scorpion is still popular today is his spear attack. Or harpoon or kunai, if thats your preference. Sub-Zero was part of the Lin Kuei ninja clan and Scorpion hated him for some reason....

Thats putting it lightly. Every nigh, the curfew is announced, with phone box-like curfew stands turning red. Breaking the terms of the curfew is a serious offence. Thank you for your understanding. Cue scenes of maintenance guys power washing blood off the streets… Theres even a dog along for the ride, although hes not called Muttley. Oh, and theres also an island inCurfew, which may or may not exist. Does the island exist?...

Still, we can see how UK TV quiz shows have evolved along with viewing habits and programming trends. Ad content continues below Seeing as how were talking about quizzing, lets ask some questions. How has UK TV changed the genre? Why does it seem like quizzes have gotten more dramatic over time? And what makes a great quiz show? (All of these questions are accurate at the time of writing.)...

Warning: contains spoilers. One of the most affecting scenes of the entire episode didnt have any dialogue. It didnt have any fancy camerawork. It just had two characters staring at, and truly seeing, one another. We can all only hope to be this fierce, empathetic, and seen in our potential final moments. These two characters have been through a lot together. Thrown into a marriage that neither wanted, they were an unlikely duo then just as they are now....

The YouTube Premium smash hit manages to lose none of the first seasons charm. Our US chums' thoughts on Cobra Kai season 2… It seems impossible, but its true. However, much like season one, the new season suffers from a lack of balance. They did this with marginal success in season one, and they do it again the second time around. Its a cultural phenomenon that other fanbases have been privileged enough to enjoy in recent years....

Days Gone plays like the CliffsNotes versions of so many better games before it. Some people refer to this as the Sony Formula, but thats not entirely fair. Its a formula that some of the industrys biggest studios formed through years of tweaking and testing. In defense of this formula, its popular because it generally works. Sadly, that is often not the case withDays Gone. Ad content continues below In some ways,Days Gonefeels like the PS4s version ofState Of Decay....

Here we are, then the last MCU movie before the Infinity Saga-capping behemoth,Avengers: Endgame. Captain Marvelis more than just the starter toEndgames main course, though. Its also the MCUs first proper period movie sinceCaptain America: The First Avengerback in Phase One. Once Danvers gets down to Earth, though, its a different story. I get in trouble for that, Carol retorts. Ive been fighting with one arm tied behind my back, she realises....
