The Last of Us, episode five: Endure and Survive

If you are saddened by the ever-worsening situation following the earthquake in Turkey and Syria, please consider donating to Choose Love who have launched an emergency appeal. February is also LGBT+ History Month in the UK. This year, LGBT+ History Month is focusing on LGBT+ people's contribution to cinema and film behind the lens. Find out more on their website and consider supporting LGBTQI+ charities. On to the show... this week, Ria is joined by Blake and Ele. They discuss episode five: Endure and Survive. We discuss how Kathleen's leadership and sole focus on Henry is the downfall of her militia, the beauty of Henry and sam's relationship (actual goosebumps when Ele talks about Henry painting Sam's face), what people do for love and in their grief and give props to the freaky clicker child who will forever haunt Ria's dreams. Ria will be discussing each episode, and trying not to geek out too much, every week with various guests. The Last of Us is based on the critically acclaimed game by Naughty Dog. The show stars Pedro Pascal as Joel Miller and Bella Ramsey as Ellie Williams. Huge thank you to Kevin for providing his beautiful version of Gustavo Santaolalla's The Last of Us theme. Kevin performed the music on one of his many awesome ukuleles.
