Top Gear (Summer 2008)

*****

What a rip-roaring start to the new series. Wow! Utterly non-PC, tons of fun. lots of fabulous cars, silliness and did I mention cars? Something for young and old to enjoy apart from the Sunday Night Project dicks. The boys are back in town and this...

Blades of Glory

*****

The most stupid film I've seen in two months and I wouldn't change a second of it. Not perfection like Kingpin but belly-laugh brilliant and worth watching just to see Will Ferrell in a leotard. The acting is all hammed and the ice-skating is...

Celebrity Banisteoir (Wicklow vs Westmeath)

*****

Well she finally showed her true colours. A woman whose entire political career has been dedicated entirely to her political career couldn't be arsed getting out of bed on a Sunday to be the Maryland coach. I was thrilled that they won, just to stick...

Doctor Who (2008, S04E01)

*****

Celebrity Banisteoir

Knight Rider (Pilot, 2008)

*****

If you grew up in the 80's then you must have felt a pang when you heard they were making this. Yes, the original was cheesy as hell but it was also great fun. This is a pretty poor update but had enough to keep me watching to the end.

Torchwood (Fragments)

*****

Not sure what to make of this one. Distinct signs of budget running out completely but great twist at end. Team (except Gwen) investigate alien activity in deserted building. It blows up. History of each joining Torchwood then shown. The premise was a...
