Amber’s Guest Starring Role in Cold Case Available on Discovery+ for a Limited Time Only

1/27/2024

Here is some exciting news for Amber fans in the UK as Amber’s guest starring role in US crime drama series Cold Case is currently available on streaming service Discovery+.
 
Quest Red is a TV channel available on a number of platforms here in the UK. It has recently been re-running classic crime drama series Cold Case in which homicide detective Lily Rush played by Kathryn Morris delves into Philadelphia Police Department’s cold cases in the hope of bringing killers to justice.
 
In 2003 Amber guest starred as Julia Hoffman in “Volunteers" Episode 16 of Season 1. In this episode the discovery of human remains leads Lily to reopen an unsolved missing person’s case from 1969.
 
Those of you who follow the website’s dedicated X (the social media site formally known as Twitter) and Facebook feeds may have seen that I posted about “Volunteers" being shown yesterday on Quest Red and Quest Red+1.
 
I had planned on publishing a full post in the latest news section about this ahead of time. Unfortunately, due to an error on my part I thought Volunteers the episode in which Amber appears wasn't due to be shown for at least a few more days. I apologise for the error as I know sadly there aren't many opportunities to see Amber’s television roles here in the UK. which is why I was so disappointed to make the mistake.
 
Amber fans are a supportive community and fellow fan Carole was one of a number of fans including Laragh and Samantha to remind me that Volunteers is still available to watch on the Discovery + streaming platform here in the UK as Quest Red is part of the Discovery Warner Brothers Group.
 
Discovery+ streaming platform is available on desktop computer, smart phones, games consoles, tablets and more via the Discovery+ app, “Volunteers” is available for a limited time only. I have checked both the Discovery+ app and the desktop version as well and neither of them give a date when the episode will expire from the platform.
 
I have looked at the episodes that are available and there are still five to watch as of the date of this post. At the moment Quest Red are showing one episode every weekday so I estimate that as it's the weekend Volunteers should be available until Thursday the 1st of February 2024. This is an estimate based on the information I have at the time of writing this post. Discovery/Quest Red may decide to stream more or less episodes which could affect how long the episode is available. As I said there is no date given for when it will expire from Discovery+ platform.
 
For more information on Discovery+ visit their website at the link below for more information.

I don't know if Discovery+ is available outside of the UK and if it is the content may differ depending upon the country you are based in.
 
If there are any fellow fans from outside of the UK who know more about this then why not leave a comment under this post, contact me on social media or our email address, the links are in the website header above.
 
I’m pleased fans in the UK will have another chance to see one of Amber’s guest starring television roles.

Happy Birthday Amber!

I’d like to wish Amber Benson a very Happy Birthday. Amber, I hope today and the year ahead brings you happiness and only good things.
 
Followers of the website’s social media feeds will know that I posted Happy Birthday messages there too of course. I also wanted to write a post here in the Latest Amber News section as well.
 
I've been a huge fan and have followed Amber's career for many years and in that time, I've been fortunate enough to meet her in person on a number of occasions. Indeed, I was lucky enough to meet her again at a convention in the UK in autumn last year.
 
Amber is not only hugely talented she's also a kind and generous person too. If it had not been for the encouragement Amber has given me, I never would have attempted many new things. I’m very grateful for all of her support and kind words.
 
Last year saw the release of Slayers: A Buffyverse Story which Amber co-wrote, co-directed and starred in. Click the hyperlink and scroll down the page, a dedicated Slayers page is coming soon. Amber also discusses Slayers: A Buffyverse Story in this month’s issue of SFX Magazine. For more information about this click here.
 
I hope that 2024 will be another great year for Amber and as ever I will do my best to keep everyone up-to-date.
 
I know you will all join me in wishing Amber a very Happy Birthday!

Amber Benson Discusses Slayers: A Buffyverse Story in the January Edition of SFX Magazine

Happy New Year to everyone I have some very exciting news to kick off 2024. Amber discusses Slayers: A Buffyverse Story in the January edition of SFX Magazine which is out in the UK now.
 
If this is the first time you’re hearing about Slayers: A Buffyverse Story then here is what you need to know, it's an Audible Original Podcast. It has been co-written by Amber Benson and her long-time friend and writing partner Christopher Golden. Amber and Christopher also co-direct along with Kc Wayland. This is an immersive audio drama that is told over nine episodes. The story is set thirteen years after ‘Chosen’ the final ever episode of Buffy the Vampire Slayer.
 
Spike has infiltrated the demon underworld in Los Angeles convincing them that he has returned to his old ways. That is until he runs into Indira Nunnally (Laya DeLeon Hays) a young Slayer who has very recently received her powers. Now Spike has got to act fast, both to save what's left of his cover story and find a Watcher to guide Indira.
 
What's fast becoming a difficult and dangerous night takes a shocking turn when Cordelia Chase track Spike down. Except she's not the Cordelia that long time Buffy and Angel fans are familiar with, she is from a parallel universe. A world where Buffy Summers never existed and Cordelia is the one and only Slayer. Cordelia needs Spike’s help as her world is in danger from none other than Spike’s former paramore Drusilla and that's only the start of this gripping adventure.
 
What makes this project even more exciting is that a number of Buffy’s original cast have returned to reprise there much love roles. Including Amber who as well as co-writing and co-directing, plays Tara Maclay for the first time in more than twenty years.
 
In this article written by Will Salmon Amber discusses how Slayers came about and her own feelings on returning to the Buffyverse. She highlights the role of new Slayer Indira and the importance of creating a positive experience for fans these are just some of the topics she covers.
 
James Marsters and Juliet Landau also talk about reprising their roles of Spike and Drusilla respectively. There is also a selection of photos featuring the cast and crew including Amber taken while they were recording Slayers: A Buffyverse Story.
 
At the moment I've been unable to find a list of stockist for SFX Magazine but I do know it is currently available from WHSmith and Asda here in the UK (it may not be available in smaller stores). SFX magazine is also available to buy online. I have ordered a single issue from magazinesdirect.com click the link below for more details.

I checked and there are other websites where the magazine can be purchased as well. I don't know if they ship internationally. If anyone has any information, then please email or message me via our social media feeds. The links are at the top of the page and of course you can leave a comment on this post too.
 
A big thank you to friends and fellow Amber fans Samantha and Laragh both for the information about the article itself and the link for online purchases. This is an interesting article with some fantastic photos to accompany it definitely check it out if you can.
