|title= Cell 7
|rating= 4
|genre= Teens
|summary=Tired of ''Big Brother'' and ''I'm a Celebrity..?'' Maybe you'd prefer something more gritty, something more 'real?' Welcome to the evolution of reality TV: ''Death is Justice'' gives you, the viewer, the power of life and death. Listen to the evidence, decide whether the condemned criminal is guilty or innocent and then simply text DIE or LIVE to 7997 (Calls cost £5).
 
Since the abolition of the court system a few years ago, the power of jury has been given to the people. Those accused of murder have seven days in seven cells, each with their own particular method of psychological torture. On the last day, the accused is led to Cell 7, dominated by the imposing electric chair in the centre. As the public votes pour in, viewers wait with eager anticipation to see if there will be a live execution that evening...

|summary= Fifteen year old Anna has had an excruciating year, topped off with new stepparents and a new school. So she ''borrows'' her family's credit card, and runs away to LA to crash with her sister. But Hollywood isn't the escape she needs, and it soon dawns on her: she's trapped in a town full of lost souls and wannabes, with no friends, no cash and no return ticket. When her sister's obsessive ex offers her a job researching the murderous Manson girls for his next indie film, she accepts – albeit reluctantly. This is not quite the summer Anna had in mind; but the more she learns about the girls and her fate, the more she comes to understand her family – and herself.

|title=Doctor Who: The Legends of River Song
|rating=3
|genre=Science Fiction
|summary=''Hello, sweetie.'' And with those words we know where we are – in the company of River Song, one of modern TV's more infuriating characters. Now she's likeable enough, it was just the timey wimey stuff she was lumbered with that made her hard to live with. I would say this was a return to her side, but have we had that pleasure yet – isn't it in our future, which is her past, and vice versa at the same, er, time? Either way, five tales here bring a selection of her escapades to a YA audience. The results can be bordering on the written ''Who'' as seen elsewhere, but can certainly frustrate as usual.
