By Kimberley Veart This week Bones went back in time to the glory days of Hollywood, when the hairstyles were sprayed to perfection and the dialogue was fast and witty.

TV Review: Bones Season 10, Episode 6 “Lost Love in the Foreign Land” (USA, 2014)

By Kimberley Veart This week’s Bones episode was truly fantastic, cleverly managing the topic of human trafficking with compassion and sensitivity, and also exploring the relationships of the characters we have grown to love, all while solving a murder of course.
