Two giants of film and small screen hit households this week- Practical Magic 2 and Monster: The Lizzie Borden Story. Grace saw both and Grace has lots to say about both.

Back in 1998, we fell in love with the Sally and Gillian Owens in Practical Magic, the sisters who battle a family curse and strengthen their own familial bonds in the process.

A return to Practical Magic has been on our bucket list for such a long time and 2026 was the year we got it. 

What does Grace think? Officially she awarded it 1/5 with the star given for the nostalgia vibes only.

Which brings us to one of the most awaited stories to come to Netflix, Ryan Murphy's depiction of the Lizzie Borden story as part of his famous Monster series.

Previously we saw Dahmer, the Menendez Brothers, and Ed Gein and so it was high time a woman featured on the list of truth being stranger than fiction.

Grace firmly believes she was not well represented on screen, and that only breadcrumbs of truth were present in Ryan Murphy's artistic licence.

A disappointing result for Grace who had high hopes, but never fear... she wore her Westlife robe into studio, a comfort blanket of floating heads.

Listen back to Grace on The Big Breakfast Blaa and don't forget you can catch her every Friday just after the news at 9.

Keep up to date on all the latest from The Big Breakfast Blaa with Ollie and Dymphna from 6am until 10am daily.
