BAFTAs 2026, Eric Dane Tribute, Talamasca, Cross Season 2 & Line of Duty Series 7 Geektown Radio 486

Dave is joined this week by Darryl from Hollywood North News for a packed episode covering the February BAFTAs, a tribute to the late Eric Dane, fresh show impressions, a report from the London Anime & Gaming Con, and a full run of UK and US TV news. Darryl brings early thoughts on Talamasca: The Secret Order, the new Netflix entry in the Anne Rice universe, and whether it works if you haven't seen the other shows. He's also been into Cross Season 2 on Prime Video and reports back on whether it lives up to the first. There are impressions from The Night Agent Season 3, and some thoughts on Ryan Murphy's The Beauty that may save you some time. Dave breaks down the February BAFTAs in full, including the biggest upset of the night in Best Leading Actor, why Marty Supreme's 0-from-11 night made history for the wrong reasons, and the moment involving Tourette's campaigner John Davidson that dominated post-show coverage — and why the BBC's handling of it was the real story. There's also a heartfelt tribute to Eric Dane, who passed away on 19th February 2026 at the age of 54 following his battle with ALS. Netflix has released his episode of Famous Last Words, and it's well worth your time. On the TV news front: UK cancellations, renewals including Can You Keep a Secret? and The Floor, an ABC renewal status update, Peter Krause eyeing a new NBC pilot, first-look photos for S.W.A.T. Exiles, Robert Carlyle joining Line of Duty Series 7, and the first original cast member confirmed for the Fox Baywatch reboot.
