Throughout the entirety of The Newsreader’s S2, I collected the TV Week for each of the six episodes and weeks. There’s something seriously special about collecting physical media for this show, I feel as though it honours the period the show is set in and how things were in that 1980s era. I have been sharing these on my Twitter and in the Discord for the show too, but I thought I’d pop them all on Tumblr too for easy accessibility. These are all scans of my actual magazines which I have taken the time to physically scan, edit and put together. As a result, please respect the watermarking on it and do not try to pass these off as your own. This also includes cropping certain sections out, like side panels or smaller interviews. Please respect the time, effort and actual money that went into me bringing these to you. Thank you!

my favorite thing about season 2. i loved the addition of kay as a foil to helen. when they were together i could feel the connection between them so strongly, and how personal that story was to helen. and they also drew a lot of interesting comparisons and contrasts between noelene and helen as well. what they struggle with, what they can achieve, what they have to sacrifice. they showed the complexities of all three of their characters really well. sooo juicy
