A Discovery of Witches Season 3 Episode 4 Review: New Arrivals! – Den of Geek

Dr Roberts work underlined that, as he and Miriam used the New Orleans vampire samples to theorise that the trigger for blood rage is down to human and not creature DNA. Something in Matthew, Jack and Benjamins human genetics was awakened when they became vampires. What does this mean for any potential cure? Thats tbc, as is the precise magical nature of the newborns. Witch? Vampire? Daemon? All three?

It wasnt all celebration as the Mayfair house filled up with returning travellers. There was heartbreak for Gallowglass who understood there was no longer room for him by Dianas side. Dr Bishop took her vampire nephews confession of lifelong love as she does most things with kindness, equability, and entirely in her stride. Diana thanked Gallowglass, recognised his anguish, and quickly moved on. Actor Steven Cree gave us to understand that Gallowglass recovery would take considerably longer. Away he rode into the night on his motorbike of pain. Doubtless there are plenty of A Discovery of Witches fans willing to offer solace to that particular broken heart

Speaking of broken things, Peter Knox has, as they say in the medical profession, totally lost his shit. The mans on a rampage. Dianas method of asking nicely for the book pages has shown far greater success rate than his method, which involves showing up, spitting with rage and threatening everybody with his balls. He swooshed that nice coven witch through a door and then murdered troubled daemon TJ Watson (not to be disrespectful, but has anybody put dibs on his fabulous country house? Call my estate agent). Knox needs to be stopped, and with just three episodes of this show remaining, it needs to happen soon.

Something else that really has to stop for all our sakes, are the tediously intense-yet-moving-zero-forward Venice scenes. Until Gerbert, Benjamin and Satu make their move any move lets stop dropping in on their hostile little exchanges. Even Gerbert told Satu to take a day off and live a little. This is Venice, people, maybe get a gelato and go and look at some Titians? Your centuries-old blood feuds arent going anywhere.

In the time its taken Satu to slink about in black and tell everyone that shes the main witch actually, Diana Bishop has ticked off her to-do list in two different centuries, given birth to twins, and completed her magical training. Knowing Diana, she probably also published several papers in leading journals, supervised a couple of PhD dissertations and was granted tenure at Yale at the same time. Girl gets things done. Satu should give up now, not that she will.

Neither will Baldwin, as proved in his and Matthews could-definitely-have-been-an-email meeting. Support my scion, pleaded Matthew. Cant! Said Baldwin. kay bye, said Matthew.
