I'm a LITTLE bit behind in Game of Thrones, and this is actually the last episode I've seen. I may have caught a glimpse of a trailer for last week's though and OMG. But, yes, cast your mind back Some Weeks Ago to an episode that couldn't help but be a little bit of a…

Anyway, onwards: I've really enjoy all the cliffhangers this series. Nothing's properly beaten Beneath the Lake, but…
Doctor Who is over for a whole several weeks, alas, and then Christmas, and then it really properly is over for MONTHS, horror, but I stopped recapping in the middle of the season.
