That’s how it was for me growing in the late seventies / early eighties, prior to the vaccine being used in the UK, every time any kid was ill the whole class seemed to be forced to visit them.

Unfortunately I never caught it then, but did when I was thirty and I ended up being hospitalised with it and pneumonia (as it…

The whole time I was reading this I found myself asking, why haven’t they mentioned “Questions In A World Of Blue” yet?, so I was so glad to see it given its dues at the end. It really is a majestic song, and one that’s helped me through many a cold, lonely night.

I love Sam too, but if you ever go drinking with him, whatever you do don’t let him have a glass of Tokay wine.

It’s a shame they didn’t mention Prince Andrew Is A Sweaty Nonce earlier on in the week as it might have driven up sales even further.

I’ve also seen a couple of fairly well known stand up comics tear in to the Queen this week, and the audience was on their side without any doubt, but alas such material wasn’t…

Wow, this was awful, essentially describing the plot and chucking in a couple of bland comments (the kind of shots used in a scene, the lack of music in another) and there’s absolutely nothing here that anyone who has any interest in the film wouldn’t know. Plus if you haven’t see the film it spoils the ending…

There was a time I really rated Netflix, especially during the period they gave a lot of great comedians their own shows (Lady Dynamite being one of my all time favourite things) and I love Bojack Horseman too.

But now I find myself actively hoping they fail, or struggle so much that this **** gets fired, and while…

For anyone who hates video content (like me), the list was:
Dark Man
The Toxic Adventure
Tales From The Crypt
The Crow
Men In Black

And yeah, that’s all they could be bothered to come up with, ignoring about 100 other great movies based on non-DC or Marvel fare.

“Spielberg killed our dreams of a musical adaption of Jurassic Park” - It’s been done, perhaps unsurprisingly, and it wasn’t amazing but it was mostly fun: https://www.chortle.co.uk/review/2015/05/08/22460/jurassic_lark

It’s a shame they’ve named Reddick’s character, I was really hoping this could sneakily be a Corporate spin-off.

I’m guessing this won’t be a popular answer as no one has posted it so far, but I really enjoyed “Jingle Jangle: A Christmas Journey”, terrible title aside, I thought it was a really sweet, warm hearted musical with some great songs in it.

I’m with you, it’s a Strange sequel and a Wandavision sequel, possibly a Loki one too, and I’m sure as it gets closer to the release date we’ll learn what other Marvel characters are in it, it might not make quite as much as No Way Home did but it’s clear that- and, gah, I’ve become annoyed by yet another Sam Barsanti…

Have you seen it though? It’s not just mentioned once or twice, but shouted at the audience over and over again.

And kids are way smarter than this movie gives them credit for.

I’ve seen the film now and jesus, that review is exhausting and written in an incredibly patronising manner, and it’s also filled with spoilers, I’m so glad I’ve seen it already or I’d have been extremely annoyed.

As for the film itself, well, about 90% of it is pretty wonderful, it’s playful, smart, funny and…

That’s a good point, albeit a bleak one.

Does anyone know if Matt Schimkowitz is one of the writers who will be leaving, or is he staying on this sinking ship?

I’ve just realised I meant Norway instead of Denmark, but while you’re not wrong, Maria Staveng was such a great contestant I’ve no issue with her returning for the second series.

It’s supposed to be getting the international versions too, and the New Zealand and (first two) Danish series were fantastic, so once they’re up there I’d recommend signing up for the free one month trial and binging them.

Ah, so it’s okay to stick a vulva through a painting then?

I’m going to use the (quite poor) excuse that I live in the UK, and so hadn’t even heard that there was a stage musical until now.
