Last week I posted a short review and link to the comedy short Life’s a Show which I was fortunate enough to be given a preview too. Afterwards I got to chat to writer and director Harvey Puttock about the film. If you didn’t get the chance to see the film, you can do so… Continue reading Interview with Life’s A Show Writer & Director – Harvey Puttock

Life’s a show – Film Review
One of the nice things about doing my blog for this long is that I often get invited to review films. I can’t accept every offer so pick those which I think might be fun or interesting and recently one such film came up that caught my attention. We’ve all had times where we feel… Continue reading Life’s a show – Film Review
Going back to the cinema after lockdown to watch The Unholy!
As everyone else has awaited the end of lockdown to go to the shops, pubs, eat out or simply to meet up with someone, for me I have been waiting 17 months to go to the cinema.

Roe v. Wade (2021) Movie Review
It’s been a long time since I did a film review, understandably so as with so much of public life, film-going has been all but shut down at least in the old-fashioned going to the cinema sort of way.

One of… Continue reading Meeting James Bond in his London apartment!
Stalin Vs Hitler: A comparison – who was worst?
It’s a bit of a fools errand trying to compare disasters, discoveries and empires from different time-periods. How can one properly make comparisons between the Roman Empire and the British Empire for example? The Mongol Empire and the French Empire? Just when you think you have weighed up all the factors then you realise you… Continue reading Stalin Vs Hitler: A comparison – who was worst?
Dragons Hill – Where Saint George killed that dragon!
We’re nearing the end of my series of posts set on and around Whitehorse Hill and the Ridgeway. It would be easy to think that surely there is nothing else to see within the short walk of the car park here but incredibly there is still more and if we have already visited the smith… Continue reading Dragons Hill – Where Saint George killed that dragon!
The Legend of Jack O’ Legs – Hertfordshire’s answer to Robin Hood!
We all know the story of Robin Hood, Little John and the others in Sherwood Forest but where I live we have a similarly motivated though perhaps less successful and well-know figure and his name is Jack O’Legs who also stole from the rich and gave to the poor. Jack lived in a cave near the… Continue reading The Legend of Jack O’ Legs – Hertfordshire’s answer to Robin Hood!
Coronavirus Diary 65 – Social Distancing at the Cinema with a blockbuster (Tenet) movie review
Just before moving, I got myself an annual cinema card as going to the Pictures is my favourite pastime. I thought I’d move house and finally get to go to unlimited movies, cricket matches, Theatre productions. None of that is likely to really happen until after the winter I am sure, Now, one way or… Continue reading Coronavirus Diary 65 – Social Distancing at the Cinema with a blockbuster (Tenet) movie review
