Also, a new video advertising St. Vincent's European tour features a 30-second clip of a brand new track, which I'd imagine is likely to appear on her next album, expected next year. Can't wait.

Doctor Who
A surprise mini-episode by the name of 'The Night Of The Doctor' has been released. It's almost seven minutes long and stars former Doctor Paul McGann. Sadly no sign of Eric Roberts.

Marvel's Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D.
Word is that the season finale will tie into 'Winter Soldier'. Perhaps they could explain Ward's robotic personality by making him the spawn of an Arnim Zola lab experiment or something. Also, while on the subject of tie-ins, episode eight of 'SHIELD' will apparently be dealing with the aftermath of 'The Dark World'. It would have been great if the movie's post-credits scene had...

Thor: The Dark World (2013)
Really enjoyed it. The core issue of the story (family tragedy reunites feuding brothers who come to an understanding and catharsis of their prior conflict, only to take two steps backwards), while admittedly only explored for about a third of the movie, was absolutely terrific. The rest was good clean fun, if a bit fluffy at times. Didn't take itself too seriously, but not to the point of self-parody. All in all, I'd watch it again. Also, I can't remember ever actually punching the air while watching a movie at the cinema, but I did exactly that at the very end when...

Roy Keane and Mick McCarthy's ongoing frostiness, Terry Butcher's goggle-eyed press photoshoot for Hibs, Paolo Di Canio and Martin O'Neill starting the type of flame war usually only reserved for the Barbara Palvin topic at BZ. Never let it be said that ex-Sunderland managers aren't doing their bit to break up the usual dullness of international week!

Somehow, I don't see that being as much of a worry for VS as it would be for most employers.

Marvel's Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D.
Episode six was my favourite so far. Given how little we know about Fitz and Simmons as a double act, much less as individuals, it was far more gripping than it had any right to be. Thanks to Elizabeth Henstridge and Iain De Caestecker's performances, the partnership felt lived-in and believable for the first time. Here's hoping Ward becomes less of a blank canvas soon. As it stands, the guy might as well be called 'Jack Bland'.

In my opinion, a win on Sunday should immediately see them installed as firm favourites. I saw a stat somewhere that they've taken 60-something points from 26 matches since losing back-to-back games in January. Spread that across a full season and you'd end up with a total in the mid 90s - close to a Premier League record.
