is all about the relationship between Joel (Pedro Pascal) and Ellie (Bella Ramsey), which made Sunday's season 1 finale all the more heartbreaking.In surprisingly fashion, however, the heartbreak this time around didn't come from the death of a beloved character — RIP Tess, Bill, Frank, Henry, Sam, Riley and all our other faves -- but from a lie.Having realized that the Fireflies plan for Ellie — which involved operating on her brain to analyze her cordyceps for a possible cure — would kill her, Joel went on a rampage, killing guards, doctors and finally Marlene (Merle Dandrige) as he broke a still-unconscious Ellie out of the hospital.When she came to, however, Joel omitted all of his own violence from the story, telling Ellie that the hospital was attacked by raiders but that the Firefly doctors had determined she wasn't the cure and she was free to leave.«I don't think Ellie does believe him, at her core,» Ramsey told ET's Ash Crossan during an interview for an ET and Comicbook crossover podcast. «I don't think she does, but she has to force herself to believe him enough, because the thought of it not being true is too painful.»At the episode's end, a still-skeptical Ellie even asks Joel to swear that what he told her was true — and he does.«I think that she forces herself to to believe him and buys into her own delusion because she has to for her own sanity,» the actress added. «But I think deep down she's always had a feeling.»If the truth comes to light in season 2, it's likely to cause a massive rift between the two, especially, Ramsey said, because Ellie would have «definitely» been willing to sacrifice herself for the cure.«That's her purpose, that's the reason she's alive,» she explained.

Naman Ramachandran BBC director general Tim Davie has apologized over the ongoing fracas around star soccer player turned sports pundit Gary Lineker, but will not resign. Last Tuesday, Lineker, commenting on the U.K. government’s controversial Illegal Migration Bill, tweeted, describing it as an “immeasurably cruel policy directed at the most vulnerable people in language that is not dissimilar to that used by Germany in the 30s.” Lineker is a star presenter on the BBC’s “Match of the Day” soccer program. Lineker’s tweet raised government hackles and on Friday, the BBC suspended him, saying: “The BBC has been in extensive discussions with Gary and his team in recent days.  We have said that we consider his recent social media activity to be a breach of our guidelines. The BBC has decided that he will step back from presenting ‘Match of the Day’ until we’ve got an agreed and clear position on his use of social media. When it comes to leading our football and sports coverage, Gary is second to none.  We have never said that Gary should be an opinion free zone, or that he can’t have a view on issues that matter to him, but we have said that he should keep well away from taking sides on party political issues or political controversies.”

Dennis Harvey Film Critic The “evil twin” school of psychological metaphor has been a frequent device in horror fiction, and its familiarity does not much benefit the very literal-minded “Appendage.” Writer-director Anna Zlokovic’s first feature centers on a young Manhattanite whose insecurities manifest themselves in the form of a mini-me who becomes a serious usurping threat. This SXSW-launched Hulu Original is sufficiently polished to pass muster as a night’s streaming entertainment for undiscriminating genre fans. But despite the grotesque premise, its attack is a little too blunt to make much impact, whether taken as thinly-veiled satire or straight fantasy thriller.   Introduced chafing under the critical control of her waspish mother (Deborah Rennard) during a visit home to the suburbs, Hannah (Hadley Robinson) is a nice, talented, attractive twentysomething nonetheless driven by the sense that she’s got everything to prove. An aspiring fashion designer, she certainly gets negative reinforcement on that front from her employer, a stereotypically vicious style maven named Cristean (Desmin Borges). On the plus side, there is very supportive boyfriend Kaelin (Brandon Mychal Smith), and workmate/best friend Esther (Kausar Mohammed), who introduced the couple to one other. But their reassurances tend to fall on deaf ears, as Hannah stays up late each night slaving over dresses her mean-spirited boss will likely dismiss with a sneer.
