10 h. ago Black Rabbit to High Potential: the seven best shows to stream this week

Jude Law and Jason Bateman are brothers in deep trouble in a snappy, fast-talking thriller, and the return of Kaitlin Olson’s lovably sweet crime drama. Plus: the new adult animation from the makers of Rick and Morty!Not so much Black Rabbit as Black Sheep, as Jude Law’s New York bar-restaurant owner Jake finds his business, and eventually life, turned upside down by the sudden reappearance of his no-good brother Vince (Jason Bateman). Jake is just about getting by, running the titular nightspot and looking to take it upmarket – as we meet him, he’s sweating on the verdict of a prominent food critic. But Vince has a target on his back: he owes money to bad people and Jake is his last resort. It’s snappy, fast-talking trash but with an undercurrent of fraternal tenderness that lends it a dimension beyond the generic – Jake may not want his brother in his world but he doesn’t want to throw him to the wolves either. Netflix, from Thursday 18 September Continue reading...

52 h. ago How to turn a single egg and rescued berries into a classic British dessert

Strawberries and cream meets Eton mess, using just a single egg white and past-its-best summer fruit – a towering successJust a single egg white can be transformed into enough elegant meringue shards to crown more than four servings of pudding, as I discovered when, earlier this year, I was invited by Cole & Mason to come up with a recipe to mark London History Day and decided to do so by celebrating the opening of the Shard in 2012. Meringue shards make a lovely finishing touch to all kinds of desserts, from a rich trifle to an avant-garde pavlova or that timeless classic, the Eton mess. As for the leftover yolk, I have several recipes, including spaghetti carbonara (also featuring salt-cured egg yolks that make a wonderful alternative to parmesan) and brown banana curd.

3 d. ago The Christophers review – Ian McKellen and Michaela Coel spar in smart Soderbergh original

Toronto film festival: the actors play off each other beautifully in an intimate London-set comedy drama about art, commerce and the mess in-betweenIt seems like Steven Soderbergh might have developed a late case of anglophilia, the retirement-teasing director situating himself in London for three films within the last two years. The first was a needless, throwaway Magic Mike sequel, but then this spring he gave us the delicious spy caper Black Bag, a juicy riff on both John le Carré and Agatha Christie that dared to imagine a monogamous and supportive marriage as the epitome of sexiness. Unlike Woody Allen, who cursed us with a string of London-set clunkers after Match Point (Cassandra’s Dream, a film that cast Colin Farrell and Ewan McGregor as cockney brothers, easily the most heinous), Soderbergh seems to be sticking around for reasons other than a nice holiday, his second offering of 2025 also feeling notable. It’s a quieter project than his last, a delicate two-hander closer t...
