    5 Controversial Films From Books

    October 7, 2016 / No Comments

    When author Paula Hawkins’ suspense thriller The Girl On The Train came out last year, it became a runaway bestseller and the film rights were immediately snatched up. Now, less than two years later, she’s thrilled with the film adaptation, out in UK cinemas today. But not all authors are pleased with the director’s take on their beloved novels. We’ve all experienced that moment where a character comes on screen and we want to jump up from the sofa and shout “That’s not how I imagined it!” – and we aren’t even the writers!

    October 5, 2016 / No Comments

    When it comes to Britain’s bars, there’s more to our menus than G&Ts and heavy ales. There are so many opportunities to celebrate cocktails, be it London Cocktail Week, National Cocktail Day or even World Cocktail Day, and we love to get in the spirit of every occasion (geddit – spirit?). We thought that today we’d share with you the origins and recipes behind some of the UK’s most coveted and favourite cocktails.

    Great British Bake Off Best Mel and Sue Moments

    September 23, 2016 / No Comments

    Is there no end to the shocking moves from our favourite shows? Following the loss of BBC Top Gear’s Jeremy Clarkson (and shortly after, his co-hosts too) we were all devastated, yet at the same time, oddly curious to see what would come next.

    Battle of Britain Anniversary

    September 15, 2016 / No Comments

    This year marks the 76th anniversary of The Battle of Britain, one of the most pivotal and momentous moments in our nation’s history and today, the 15th September, marks the anniversary of Battle of Britain Day. This extraordinary event is significant for many reasons, and may well be the last time the 21 surviving veterans are able to commemorate. As a result the occasion is being marked up and down the country, with air shows, documentaries, commemorative coins and more. How much do we really know about ‘the Few’ that risked their lives for us all?
