WESTWORLD

So what is it? In a theme park populated by

really realistic robots, human visitors can do whatever they like. The robots should forget everything at the end of each day, but they start to develop memories…

Who’s in it? Thandie Newton and Evan Rachel Wood. What’s happened so far? Some robots have worked out what’s going on, and are fighting back. How many hours have I missed? Roughly 10. But solipsistic panic will make time lose all meaning. The episode where it got really good: The second, when Maeve (brothel-owner robot, right) remembers the awful things that have been done to her. What your colleagues will say about it over the desk: “I can see Disneyworld becoming a warzone led by a homicidal robotic Mickey Mouse.” Sound knowledgeable with… “Security chief Ashley’s played by Luke Hemsworth. Yes, another Hemsworth.”  Season 2 is on Sky in April
