Ah well......a blink of the ears and you'd have missed it.

With all the top flight people involved, this should be unmissable TV, but on the strength of the trailers I have an awful feeling of incipient disappointment about it. Two old hams declaiming their...

As a lover of the books from boyhood, it's always been a great regret to me that they have never been given the full 1930's period treatment, with an actor worthy of the part, and some adherence to...

Donahoe, Donahue. He was fuming about it for the rest of the session. Nearly paid the price.

Somewhat peeved at the delay, having rushed out of a very enjoyable bath.

Maybe they just discovered that Sheridan uttered a filthy and disgusting word, like "Cameron", maybe.

This was a real gem. I'm still giggling at parts of it as they pop into my mind.

Shaun's "Not while I'm reading" creased me.

Hope this isn't the last we see of Warwick.

When speculating, way back, on who could succeed Tennant, I recall mention of Chiwetel Ejiofor. Probably too big, now, but I still think he'd be great in the part - as he is in every other part he...

My god - Mountford and Widdecombe in one evening. Two talentless old tarts who've managed to persuade incompetent TV execs that they have a discernible talent for presentation.

They don't.

That's the one. A real fun film, and a great performance from Clive Owen, even though he did have his face covered for much of the time.

I needed to watch it a couple of times, and pause here and...

Totally see his point.

Phone calls cost. Email's free.

No point spending money when she's likely to say no.

Don't think I've ever been more pleased at a team win. Amazing effort from Andrew, and good support from his team mate, perhaps against expectations.
