A Noble girl

Advantages: looks great
Disadvantages: n/a

...Doctor Who - its a fantastic sci-fi show for the whole family! Although I did not watch it all those years ago when it was first on our screens (!) I have grown very fond of the new series', and more in particular, the actors starring in it. In 2005 the show came back with our 9th Doctor, who then regenerated into the 10th Doctor, David Tennant. He has seen us through three series' each with a new companion. The first companion was Rose Tyler (Billie Piper), followed by Martha Jones (Freema Agyeman). Then came Donna Noble in Series 4, played by comedian and actor Catherine Tate. Catherine Tate is well known for The Catherine Tate Show, her comedy sketch show, however she also gave a very moving and memorable performance as Donna in Doctor Who. Donna joined the Doctor in his adventures as he flew through the universe in his blue Tardis...

Watch Something a Bit Different - Ross Noble.

Advantages: Extremely funny, plenty of extras, makes a great gift.
Disadvantages: None.

.... This is not your average stand up comedy performance. Ross Noble, who really ought to be a lot more mainstream than he is because of sheer talent, is a fantastic deliverer of quirky, off the wall jokes, excellent observations and brilliant annecdotes. He's a young, suprisingly bouncy, Geordie who will capture your attention from the get go with this great dvd. Ok, the disc is in, you've clicked 'play' and sat back on the sofa. Get your glasses on, because the copyright is hijacked by Ross and is now very entertaining. He adds various suggestions in list form, that are quite small on screen, so you may have to get up close but don't miss them because they're great. My fiance and I came up with our own list when we first met as I'd lent him the dvd (he was very impressed) and we spent ages giggling over emailed silly suggestions...

* The Bunny House *

Advantages: Funny , Plot
Disadvantages: May Send Out Wrong Message To Young Girls!

...Recently I have been swapping DVDs with my friend ; I've been borrowing her 'up-to-date' movies and she's been watching my 'rom-coms'. One of the DVDs which I borrowed from my friend was a film called ' The House Bunny'. The House Bunny is an American romantic comedy film released in the United Kingdom on 10th October 2008.

house rules

Advantages: great
Disadvantages: have to wait for next seriwes

...House is a fantastic series and I missed the first one but got in to watching this in the second series, so I rushed out to buy the first series box set and I could not stop watching it, it is so addictive. If you love medical dramas then this is one for you as it's not all your normal diagnosis, each episode goes through a new medical dilemma they have to try and solve and they are not your usual colds and virus's. House is a medical programme with a diagnosis to be made, so each episode has you playing doctor trying to figure what has caused the patient's medical condition. House is an American drama and is about Dr Gregory House played by Hugh Laurie he is a fantastic doctor, unfortunately he does not seem to have the patience for patients, and Dr House is a Doctor who says what he wants and does what he wants regardless of other...

A Wooden Album by Crowded House?

Advantages: 'Woodface' includes some of the most sublime love songs ever written
Disadvantages: It's all a bit much and much the same; the tracks that do dare to be different, don't fit

...Although I will always consider Crowded House to be one of my ?Dad?s bands? I have to say that I?ve developed strong feelings for many of the groups songs over the years. Teenagers are funny like that; we?ll go off on our own tour of music, claiming that Eminem and Dr. Dre are ?da bomb? before realising it was The Beatles and folky bands like Fleetwood Mac and Crowded House that vied for our earphones all along. On a couple of occasions, my Dad has bundled my Brother and I ? along with my Mum ? into the car and driven about two hours away to Nottingham in a vague attempt to educate us in terms of music. By doing so, he was making us watch the Finn Brothers, a song writing duo that have had a fairly rocky past. Neil Finn ? the lead singer and metaphorical leader of Crowded House ? and Tim Finn were once in a band called Split Enz who...

Review of Woodface - Crowded House

Oakleigh Guest House

Advantages: A warming, pleasant atmosphere with spotless rooms and good service
Disadvantages: Decor not particularly modern

...I currently live in Stourport on Severn in the heart of Worcestershire and recently had some distant relatives come to visit for the weekend and we needed somewhere for them to stay as our house just wasn?t big enough to accommodate the whole family. In the end we decided to book a couple of rooms at the Oakleigh Guest House as I had heard good reviews on the place from friends. ~Location~ Oakleigh Guest House is situated right in the heart of Stourport on Severn town centre so is in a perfect location to access all the local amenities. However it is situated far enough away from the main High Street so that you don?t get the noise from the pubs on a Friday and Saturday Night. The guest house is situated on York Street in Stourport on Severn and is situated right next to the canal lock and overlooks the basin and river which...

Review of Oakleigh Guest House, Stourport

The Dead House: Suspenseful.

Advantages: Good storyline, believable characters.
Disadvantages: Unbelievable at one or two points.

...Written by Anne Cassidy. 264 pages. Rating: Young adult and older. Written in third person. Can be bought new on Amazon.co.uk for £4.49, and new and used for £2+ on Ebay.co.uk. I've been a fan of Anne Cassidy's work since I first started reading her books from the Point Crime series. So when I saw this in the library I picked it up and stuck it to the top of my very long, need to finish soon 'to read' pile. The Dead House is about Lauren, ten years ago her mother and baby sister were killed by her father. She is now seventeen years old and has just recently moved back to London, now living a short distance away from her childhood home and her father has spent the last ten years in prison, but when new evidence appears that could prove his innocence. Faced with the startling fact that he could receive a not guilty verdict...

Review of The Dead House - Anne Cassidy

The Arnol Black House

Advantages: Fantastic insight into how the islanders lived
Disadvantages: Small admission fee, remote location

...Arnol is a small village on the remote northern coast of Lewis in the Outer Hebrides. Today the village comprises of a number small crofts scattered across a large area but if you look closer you will see the remains of many Black Houses interspersed between the more modern houses. Black Houses are as far as I know unique to the North West Highlands of Scotland and represent a way of life for the people that have lived here, virtually in isolation from the mainland for thousands of years. The last of the Arnol Black Houses was abandoned in 1974 but thankfully the Black House at No. 42 within the village has been preserved and turned into a museum for future generations to see how these people lived. It is a common assumption that the Black Houses derived their name because they had no chimney and very tiny windows so the interior...

House Of Wax

Advantages: Good film
Disadvantages: Paris Hilton

...House of Wax features a cast apparently chosen from their headshots rather than any particular ability or connection to the material. Loosely remade from the Vincent Price classic, Paris Hilton herself says this film's major improvement is that "The original didn't really have a hot cast." Says it all really !! Directed by Jaume Collet-Serra, This is his 1st film that he has done. In my opinion he's done a good job. The main plot is a group of teenagers on a road trip to go see a football game the next game. Of course they have to camp out in the middle of know where. This is when strange things happen. Though I would have like to have seen more strange things happen. Like kill Paris off in the 1st few minutes would have been nice. Of course with most teen horror the car breaks down and of course they have to go and find...
