Every Covid-19 Commercial is Exactly the Same
Corporate Covid-19 response videos are eerily similar. *Cue somber piano music*
When a company or brand releases a Coronavirus Response ad, they might tell you that we're living in "uncertain times", but that "we're here for you". They may say their top priority is "people" and "families" by bringing their services to the "comfort and safety of your home". And don't forget: "we're all in this together!" #together
What's the deal? In reality, many companies have found themselves short on cash, almost overnight. They needed to get a message out - and quick. They asked their teams to throw something together. Since they can't film a new ad because of social distancing, they compiled old stock b-roll footage and found the most inoffensive royalty-free piano track they could find. This, combined with a decade of marketing trends dictated by focus groups and design-by-committee, released a tsunami of derivative, cliche ads all within a week of one another. It's not a conspiracy - but perhaps a sign that it's time for something new.

Competition: Win The Good Karma Hospital - Series 3 on DVD
The Good Karma Hospital - Series 3 is out on DVD on 20th April.
Synopsis
For a spoonful of sun-drenched TV medicine, it’s time to head back to The Good Karma Hospital and the stunning shores of South India for a third series of the popular ITV drama. Following its run this spring, The Good Karma Hospital Series 3 arrives on DVD thanks to Acorn Media International, alongside The Good Karma Hospital Complete Series 1 – 3 DVD Box Set on 20 April 2020.
The close-knit, hardworking team at the run down, but resourceful medical centre in the tropical Indian coastal town, led by the formidable Dr Lydia Fonseca (Amanda Redman – New Tricks), and junior doctor Ruby Walker (Amrita Acharia – Game of Thrones), must face their most shocking case yet when one of their own team is injured in a vicious acid attack.
Meanwhile, Ruby’s simmering relationship with Dr Gabriel Varma (James Krishna Floyd – Of Kings and Prophets) must contend with the arrival of Dr Aisha Ray (Priyanka Bose – Lion), a glamorous older surgeon from Gabriel’s past who sweeps into town on the miracle train, which provides life-saving surgeries with the latest equipment.
Lydia’s boyfriend Greg (Neil Morrissey – Line of Duty) has his life turned upside down when his whirlwind daughter Tommy (Scarlett Alice Johnson – Eastenders) blows into town out of the blue, forcing him to reconnect with his past. But when a surprise illness strikes, no beloved character is safe…could it be the end for one our favourites?

Competition: Win Babylon Berlin - Series 1 - 3 Boxset on DVD
Babylon Berlin - Series 1 - 3 Boxset is out on DVD on 13th April.
Synopsis
SEX, DRUGS and jazz club hedonism, welcome back to the Weimar Republic. The critically acclaimed, multi award winning hit German period drama Babylon Berlin returns for its third series as Inspector Gereon Rath delves deeper into the tangled web of political corruption of inter-war Berlin.
Making waves at home and internationally, having cracked the 100-territory mark in 2019, Babylon Berlin Series Three is set to arrive on digital 11 April and DVD 13 April 2020 courtesy of Acorn Media International after its run on Sky Atlantic, alongside the Babylon Berlin Series One to Three Box Set.
The lavish, 40 million dollar series is Germany’s most expensive drama to date, and explores a metropolis in turmoil: poverty stands in stark contrast to the excessive indulgence of the night life in a city on the brink.
Series three begins in the Autumn of 1929, during the tumultuous weeks before Black Friday’s stock market crash, and 10 months after the turbulent events of the second series. Inspector Gereon Rath (Volker Bruch) and Charlotte Ritter (Liv Lisa Fries) are assigned to investigate the violent death of a silent film actress. As talkies start conquering the big screen and Berlin becomes a hub of modern cinema, the pair soon realise the film industry is as rotten as the criminal underworld they are all too familiar with.
In the meantime, political extremists regather their forces and democracy itself is under more threat than ever. As the rise of national socialism confronts growing communist factions, time is ticking inexorably towards the inevitability of war once more…
