We're eagerly awaiting the return of Love Island this June, and as the line-up of new contestants is revealed, the excitement levels are starting to hit the roof. A summer of sun, sea and another word beginning with 'S' that we probably can't use right now (ahem), it's been a long 12 months since we were last blessed with our Majorcan reality TV fix. And while the likes of Millie Court and Faye Winter still ring familiar in our minds, and everywhere on social media, there are more than 200 contestants to remember.

The Essex Serpent Apple TV+The British Academy Television Awards (BBC One) | iPlayerFergal Keane: Living With PTSD (BBC Two) | iPlayerClark NetflixThere comes a time in every actor’s life when he must unbutton his period drama shirt and smoulder as if his life depends on it. In Apple TV+’s new six-parter The Essex Serpent, based on the historical novel by Sarah Perry, adapted by Anna Symon, directed by Clio Barnard, this duty falls to Tom Hiddleston, but he rather fluffs it.

While Danes is suitably impassioned, Hiddleston clearly didn’t get the sexy-religious-dude memoIn 1988, Ken Russell’s Lair of the White Worm wove a similar tale in the spirit of mythic campery.
By contrast, The Essex Serpent is ambitiously gothic, coiling itself around a series of personal, mystical and ideological standoffs: principle versus emotion, faith versus rationalism, superstition versus science. Cora emerges as a proto-feminist with startling tangerine-hued hair (reminiscent of Cate Blanchett’s Elizabeth I) and wonderfully dramatic clothes that echo the atmospheric Essex wetlands.
These are conveyed in a series of misty aerial shots featuring cawing gulls and slabs of sodden mud. A recurring criticism of
