Sherlock creators Mark Gatiss and Steven Moffat are taking the iconic Dracula back to his traditional horror roots. This retelling of the classic story follows Dracula from his origins in Eastern Europe to his battles with Van Helsing's descendent and beyond.

Forget Game of Thrones. HBO already has another massive fantasy epic lined up for our TV screens that looks even more impressive.

Dublin Murders is the upcoming dark psychological crime series based on the works of best-selling Irish crime author Tana French. It stars Killian Scott and Sarah Greene as a pair of detectives tasked with investigating the murder of a young girl whose body is found in the woods on the outskirts of Dublin, a case that threatens to open old wounds for all involved.

We recently had a chance to chat to Top Gear;s Freddie Flintoff, fresh off of filming series 27 and deep in production on the next season. We had questions for him, he had answers for us on everything from the most beautiful filming spots in the world to Top Gear almost losing a host in a morbid but hilarious manner. Here’s what he had to say.

Top Gear’s roster of hosts might change, there may be a new fastest car around the track on any given day of the week and the show may change with the times, but there’ll always be one constant: The Stig. Some say that his nipples are shaped like the Nurburgring and that his sweat can clean precious metals, but all we know is that Top Gear’s resident racing driver is Top Gear at its best: Focused, able to throw a million Rand's worth of car around a corner with reckless abandon and able to say a thousand words without ever opening his mouth.

Top Gear once again feels natural, less scripted and relaxed in its effort to show just how brilliant cars are and what they can still be in an ever-changing world. I’ve got a feeling that this looks like the start of a beautiful new friendship.

Like I’ve mentioned before, I never read Phillip Pullman’s famed fantasy book series, and I – like pretty much everybody in the world, it seems – was completely ambivalent to The Golden Compass, the failed 2007 feature film adaptation of this story. So with that, I genuinely can’t tell you if BBC and HBO’s upcoming new big-budget TV series adaptation …

2007's The Golden Compass was a failure both critically and commercially, but now HBO and BBC are taking a do-over on adapting Phillip Pullman's beloved His Dark Materials series for the small screen.
