Every Detective has that one case that preys on their mind long after the case is closed.
True crime docudrama series Real Detective S2 returns with new detectives and new cases. In each episode, a real detective shares that one case that was tough to crack. A case that in turn nearly cracked them. Cinematic quality recreations powerfully retell the trials and tribulations, the twists and turns, and the highs and lows of each homicide investigation.
Combined with revealing first personal testimony from the real detectives themselves, Real Detective is a gripping and unforgettable watch.
To celebrate the UK Television premiere on True Crime on Sunday 7 May, available on Freeview 60, Sky 185 and Freesat 143, we’ve got a 32” LED TV up for grabs.

Expired

To celebrate the DVD & Blu-Ray release of MIDNIGHT SUN on Monday 5th June, we are offering 10x lucky winners a chance to win a copy of the DVD!
MIDNIGHT SUN – the latest Scandi-noir crime-thriller from writers Måns Mårlind and Björn Stein (The Bridge) has taken Europe by storm.
Kahina Zadi (Leila Bekhti – The Prophet, All That Glitters), a French police officer, travels to Kiruna, a small mining community in remote northern Sweden, to investigate a brutal murder of a French citizen. With the help of Anders Harness (Gustaf Hammarsten – Bruno, The Girl With The Dragon Tattoo), a Swedish DNA and a member of the Sami, an ancient mysterious indigenous tribe of Scandinavia, they are faced with new killings and the initial murder turns out to be the tip of the iceberg.
Kahina and Anders come to realise that behind the killings is a ten-year-old secret conspiracy involving many of the town’s inhabitants. Kahina finds herself confronting a ruthless serial killer who is always one step ahead, a macabre plan, and her own painful past.
MIDNIGHT SUN is available on EST from 8th May and DVD & Blu-Ray from 5th June 2017

Win 1 of 5 Mindhorn merchandise set - Empire

Expired

MINDHORN starring Julian Barratt, Simon Farnaby, Essie Davis, Russell Tovey and Steve Coogan arrives in UK cinemas this Friday May 5th, and to celebrate this exciting new British comedy film we are giving you the chance to win a limited edition merchandise set.
Washed-up Richard Thorncroft (Julian Barratt) peaked with hit 1980s detective show Mindhorn, playing the titular Isle of Man sleuth with a robotic eye that allowed him to literally “see the truth”. Decades later, when a deranged Manx criminal demands Mindhorn as his nemesis, Thorncroft returns to the scene of his greatest triumphs for one last chance to reignite his glory days, professional credibility and even romance with former co-star/paramour Patricia Deville (Essie Davis).
Directed by Sean Foley from a script based on a Simon Farnaby (Yonderland, Horrible Histories) original idea, and co-written by 2016 BIFA nominated Julian Barratt (The Mighty Boosh) and Farnaby, MINDHORN is British comedy at its best. The film stars Julian Barratt as Richard Thorncroft / Mindhorn and Simon Farnaby as Clive Parnevik, they are joined by Essie Davis, Russell Tovey, Andrea Riseborough, Jessica Barden, Harriet Walter, and Steve Coogan.

Win a 50" Panasonic TV - Empire

Expired

It’s always an exciting time for us, when a new range of televisions is introduced and starts appearing on our store shelves. This year has been no different and the new Panasonic EX700 range – which encompasses great picture quality, design and features, all for a very reasonable price – is certainly a stand-out performer. One of our very lucky likers or followers will win an amazing TV from this great range: a Panasonic TX50EX700B 50” TV! Read on for our review of the range and find out how you can enter this brilliant, FREE competition.
Panasonic have released this model in four screen sizes (40”, 50”, 58” and 65”) meaning no matter the size of your room or what size television you require, there will be an option for you.
The ‘Switch Design’ has been continued from some of last year’s Panasonic sets, meaning there are four* different arrangements for the stand, allowing for versatility depending on your home AV setup and furniture.
The build quality on the EX700 impresses, with a very sleek silver metallic bezel which is incredibly thin. Such a premium finish is normally reserved for the high-end ranges.
The remote control supplied continues with the silver theme; Panasonic have kept this similar to layouts of the past few years in terms of button location (if it ain’t broke, don’t fix it!) There are quick navigation controls for Netflix, the newly refreshed HomeScreen 2.0, which is a fully customisable portal to desired apps, services and connected devices, and the standard TV guide. Panasonic have also added a ‘My App’ button to enable fast access to your favourite application.
Overall control doesn’t stop at just the remote however; a smartphone or tablet can quite easily be paired using the Viera Remote application with photos, videos and music able to be displayed by a simple swipe. You can also use Screen Mirroring from a compatible device for straightforward content sharing.
Once the television has been set up and has taken pride of place in your living room, it’s time to start enjoying the features this model is rich in.
The EX700 series is ready to display the latest 4K HDR pictures which are now becoming increasingly accessible in your home through a variety of different sources. Thanks to the Multi HDR support (HDR10 and HLG) you can be sure it doesn’t matter where you receive your content, it will be displayed as intended.
4K HDR on the EX700 displays images with true to life and accurate colours and pin sharp resolution and when this is incorporated with other Panasonic technologies including their ‘Wide Colour Spectrum’ and ‘Advanced Colour Processing’ it certainly provides an impressive viewing experience.
Internet services such as Netflix, Amazon Video and YouTube are all available in stunning 4K resolution through the app’s facility, with the signals processed by what Panasonic call their ‘High-Precision Chroma Processor’ to further enhance these images.
Freeview Play is also available through the internet connection, enabling you to view the most popular of catch-up, on-demand services without a monthly subscription. BBC iPlayer, ITV Hub, All 4, Demand 5 and UKTV Play are all present this year allowing for thousands of hours’ worth of content you may have missed to be accessible at the press of a button.
As with any modern television, the slimline body means that there is little space reserved for speakers but this is easily rectified with the addition of a soundbar. A Panasonic soundbar would be perfectly partnered with this TV, and with HDMI ARC support for connectivity this could not be any easier to do so, with control via one remote.
The EX700 range is a feature-rich, stylish looking set, offering an affordable alternative to some of the sometimes eye-watering prices for the most premium televisions. Panasonic’s EX700 range provides a more than adequate standard of picture quality, motion rate and smart features alike.
To find out more and to be in with a chance of winning just head to just head to our Facebook, Twitter or Instagram pages to find out how you can enter our brilliant FREE competition. You can also buy online, choose the Panasonic range and rent from as little as £9.00 per week, use our Click & Collect service to collect from your local store in as little as one hour or why not ask your local store about viewing our Panasonic range.
*Excludes the 40” which has two positions.
