It's us versus THEM! (1954, Douglas) Your deadicated hosts tackle the first big bug classic as part of their horror adjacent bonus episode series.

We cover nuclear testing on US soil through the '50s, how they created the ants' iconic sound, and why this movie isn't horror (according to us!)

"Playing by ear for a period of time is working for us. I just know what works." Thomas finished ordering the ride. "Shall we?" he asked as he offered the arm to walk them out. The ride was going to be at least 10 minutes away still. "Got time." Behind one of the pillars and hiding from street views, Thomas cornered Yates against it. "Want an appetizer?" he asked, bringing Yates' hand against the bulge.

Yates easily melted into the kiss disappointed when the kiss was broken but grinned at his explanation "Just for the night?" He asked curiously wondering if there was any chance for more than one intense night.

Agatha Christie's 'Towards Zero' tv series: First Look

The BBC has released the first pictures of Towards Zero, based on the classic mystery by Agatha Christie.

England, 1936. After a scandalous celebrity divorce, Nevile Strange and his ex-wife Audrey make the unthinkable decision to spend a summer together at Gull's Point, their childhood home and the coastal estate of Nevile's aunt, Lady Tressilian.

With unfinished business between the former childhood sweethearts, plus the presence of Nevile's new wife Kay, tensions are running high. Add to this a long-suffering lady's companion, a mysterious gentleman's valet, an exiled cousin with a grudge, a venerable family lawyer, an inquisitive orphan and a French con man, and soon there will be murder. A troubled detective must rediscover his purpose to untangle a toxic web of jealousy, deceit and dysfunction. Can he solve the crime before another victim meets their death?

The new pictures give a first glimpse at Lady Tressilian (Anjelica Huston), Inspector Leach (Matthew Rhys) and British tennis star Nevile Strange (Oliver Jackson-Cohen) - seen in the pics with the two ladies in his life: ex-wife Audrey (Ella Lily Hyland) and new wife Kay (Mimi Keene). The series is also starring Clarke Peters as Mr. Treves, an old friend of Lady Tressilian, Anjana Vasan as Mary Aldin, another party guest caught up in this disastrous mess, Jack Farthing as suspect Thomas Royde, Jackie Clune (Motherland), Grace Doherty (Call the Midwife), Khalil Gharbia (Mary & George), and Adam Hugill (Sherwood).

Towards Zero is expected to premiere on the BBC over the 2024 holidays and arrive on BritBox in early 2025. It's been adapted for screen by BAFTA-nominated Rachel Bennette (NW) and directed by the Olivier Award-winning Sam Yates (Magpie).

Also Tom watching from the sidelines, seeing Yates morph from the Baron back into himself and thinking, "Ah yes, that was the best acting I've ever seen, good end to the play." is delightful.

I am fully convinced that I will never encounter a more humorous scene in a novel than Sir Thomas walking on Mr. Yates rehearsing a rant.

I mean, of all the ways for him to learn about the play, that was by far the best (not for him, lol, but for me). I mean, can you imagine the look on their faces?!? 🤣🤣🤣

I shall eternally hold to this as hard proof that despite all the rules of conduct, the formality and ceremony everyone seemed to stand on in the Regency, they still had a sense of humor.

Sir Thomas arriving home from Antigua (at least from his perspective)

The Bertram children and Mrs. Norris:

"No fire here, that's a screen saver!"

Mr. Yates:

The fire of course being the play/theatre.

Which companion is most likely to wander off?

this tournament was suggested by @a-tad-bit-obsessed a little over a year ago

a penchant for wandering off is a core trait of practically every companion, but who is first out of the starting blocks even when its incredibly dangerous, who cannot stay put no matter how imperative, who can the doctor not afford to let out of their sights?
