Beacon 23 Season 2 Review

This week Clayton, Tamzyn and Sam cast a light out into the cosmic void with their Beacon 23 review. It’s unanimous the team are missing Lena Heady in this season, all agree her character was the glue that held the first series together. Season two has a different vibe and the team are not sure its a good one. The introduction of a new character is definitely a plus and special mention for the fantastic and creepy AI episode. If you watched series one, you will probably want to watch this series, its not as good, however it is the last, so enjoy!
