100% rated "truly unsettling" series has just been added to new streaming home in the UK
Channel Zero, the "truly unsettling" perfectly rated series, has found a new streaming home in the UK.
The horror anthology series, which originally aired on Syfy, ran for four acclaimed seasons between 2016 and 2018, with storylines being based on various creepypastas and urban legends discovered on the internet.
Seven years on from its cancellation, Channel Zero is now available to stream on Prime Video, with all four seasons – subtitled Candle Cove, No-End House, Butcher's Block and The Dream Door respectively – being added onto the streaming service over the weekend.
In our review of the series, we noted that Channel Zero was "truly unsettling" and made for "creepy viewing", adding that the series constantly delivered images that "haunt you long after the season is over".
Created by Nick Antosca, Channel Zero received acclaim throughout its run, with No-End House and Butcher's Block boasting perfect approval ratings on Rotten Tomatoes. Candle Cove and The Dream Door were similarly praised, scoring 86% and 88% respectively.

In Rotten Tomatoes' summation of Candle Cove, they called the series a "creepy, unsettling, and refreshingly unique" take on the genre, noting that the "easily relatable childhood fears" and "spine-tingling mystery" made for captivating viewing.
In their review of No-End House, Screen Rant described the season as "stronger and scarier" than its predecessor, while Den of Geek remarked that it was a "perfect character study" which touched on "loss, guilt and denial".
Butcher's Block, generally considered to be the best instalment of the series, was lauded by AV Club for its "hallucinatory imagery" and "dreamlike fables", while Collider shared that the series would "leave your skin damp with panic and crawling with disgust".

The Dream Door, whilst less acclaimed than its two predecessors, was still praised for its increasing sense of "claustrophobia" by Thrillist, while CinemaBlend noted its "uniquely complicated family drama".
With each season consisting of six episodes, the various cast members across the show's history included Fiona Shaw, Jeff Ward, John Carroll Lynch, Rutger Hauer, Holland Roden and Barbara Crampton.
Channel Zero seasons 1-4 are available to stream on Prime Video.

Pulp are in a different class at euphoric Manchester Co-op Live gig
Red velvet curtains are swept across the Co-op Live Arena stage, as a sold out crowd feverishly await the arrival of alt rockers Pulp in the uncharacteristically tropical heat of Manchester on Saturday night. A sultry voice booms out: "This show is an encore… An encore happens because the audience wants more." It couldn't be a more fitting introduction to a band that are back, not on some mere nostalgia trip, but with a number one album to celebrate. READ MORE: 'I put my USB stick in and then they just told me they were shutting it down' READ MORE: Oasis reunion tour merchandise price list revealed including bucket hats and T-shirts - full list That album - More - has also conveniently produced some of the finest music of the band's extensive career so far. It makes for some standout moments, like the upbeat singalong of Got To Have Love, alongside the belting Pulp anthems fans are lusting for in this euphoric dazzler of a show. Emerging with cardboard cutouts of the band from their 90s prime, it serves to spotlight frontman Jarvis Cocker as the unchanging, gangly-limbed talisman at the band's heart - the elbows and hips jutting at will beneath his velvet flared suit. His chat between songs (and often in songs) is the illuminating narration to a night that feels like an epic celebration of everything the Sheffield band have achieved since their earliest incarnation in the early 1980s. Naturally Jarvis can "remember the first time" he performed here - at The Pavillion at Salford University in 1982, before adding: "in actual Manchester it was later that year at The Boardwalk does that still exist?" He asks the crowd to a resounding chorus of "no." "But do you know what tonight is the very first time we've played here," he says, looking around at the vast cavern of Co-op Live - packed to the rafters with delirious fans. The last time they played here in Manchester, two years ago at Castlefield Bowl, was to around 7,000 fans, and now here we are with 23,000. It feels like the momentum continues to build around the reunited band that hit its first high in the Britpop era of the 1990s. They remain in a different class though (if you'll pardon the album pun) - indeed this performance is a sheer masterclass in how to elate a crowd, romping as it does through hits and fan favourites to an inevitable, soaring, dancing, pulsating high of Mis-shapes and then Common People. It's all played out across a visually-arresting stage set with lit staircase and a large video backdrop. For The Fear we get perhaps the most impressive deployment you're ever likely to see of those air dancer men, usually seen on garage forecourts, who manage to give Jarvis a run for his money in the body twisting stakes. We have a full-on rave for Sorted for Es and Whizz, indie disco vibes for Disco 2000, and Jarvis becomes like a James Bond villain for the epic, throbbing pounds of This is Hardcore. He is spotlit on a leather chair, before creeping out to stalk the stage and rasp out the dark, delicious lyrics of the 1998 slow-burner in one of the highlights of this show for me. He is ever the playful and often hilarious showman, chucking out grapes and chocolates to the audience at one point, before a crowd walk-through later in the show where more goodies are fed to the yearning arms on the arena floor. "That was tea bags I was handing out," he explains back on stage. "Not condoms". The show plays in two parts, which is unusual for live gigs these days, but it allows for the satisfying endnotes of Sunrise in the first half, celebrating the summer solstice, and Sunset as the encore. And in returning to the stage after the interval, we get the lovely vignette of Jarvis alongside Nick Banks, Mark Webber and Candida Doyle to perform an acoustic Something Changed, after Jarvis explains how this latest band incarnation reunited after a get together in 2022. The band's songs retain an intoxicating power, speaking as they so often do of missed chances, mundane moments, heartbreak and of growing up that make us who we are today. They also have an abilitiy to speak to the masses in an extraordinary way - probably because we all feel a bit like those misshapes, mistakes and misfits. Looking out at the sea of bodies across the Co-op Live Arena, jumping as one to Babies and Common People, ensured this was a night no-one here will forget. Just as the voiceover at the start of this show promised it would be. Part one Spike Island Grown Ups Slow Jam Sorted for Es and Whizz Disco 2000 F.E.E.L.I.N.G. C.A.L.L.E.D. L.O.V.E.

Woman Drops Out of Family Wedding and Instead Considers Giving $600, but Many Argue the Sum Is Too Much: 'That's Nuts'
A Mumsnet user has to back out of her relative's upcoming wedding because her child has a doctor's appointment She and her husband are considering paying the couple over $600 as a wedding gift Users felt the amount was far too much and suggested lower pricesA woman wants to give her relative a financial gift for a wedding she's no longer attending, but people fear that she is being overly generous. In a post on the popular U.K. forum Mumsnet, the woman detailed how a relative of hers is getting married 200 miles away on a weekday in a couple of weeks. She and her family planned to attend, but those plans have now changed. is now available in the Apple App Store! Download it now for the most binge-worthy celeb content, exclusive video clips, astrology updates and more! 'We had taken annual leave to be there and booked a hotel for the night before. Unfortunately we can no longer make it,' she explained, adding that her 2-year-old child now has a doctor's appointment on that date. The woman learned from her mother that the plates for the wedding cost $169 per person; now she's concerned that she needs to pay for her child's absence as well. She and her husband discussed giving over $600 and wanted feedback on whether this amount would be 'reasonable and would cover the cost of our absence and a good amount surplus as a gift?' 'We are not especially close to the relative and might see them once a year at a family event and I will usually send a a new year's/birthday message (and the relative will reply but never initiate),' the poster added. 'However we are very closely related (not parents or siblings but aunt/uncle/first cousin degree relations).' Users on the forum felt the generosity of the gift was far too much. 'That is an insanely large amount,' a commentator said. 'Wedding gifts are not based on how much the couple are paying for their wedding. That's an incredibly crass and unpleasant way to decide how much you are giving as a gift. You don't have to change how much your gift is because you are no longer going.'

Some offered that a gift of $60 or more would be more appropriate. 'That's nuts,' one person said. 'They've probably got someone else who can fill your place.' Read the original article on People

NEWS OF THE WEEK: Court rejects Ed Sheeran Thinking Out Loud copyright case
A minority owner of a Marvin Gaye song has tried tirelessly to sue Sheeran over the alleged similarities between Sheeran's hit and Let's Get It On, but the High Court has refused to accept the lawsuit. "No reasonable jury could find that the two songs, taken as a whole, are substantially similar in light of their dissimilar melodies and lyrics," the judge declared, as reported by USA Today. Back in November, the High Court found that Sheeran did not infringe on Gaye's copyright, citing that the songs share only the "fundamental musical building blocks".
