Reviewed – Scooby Doo Adventures
I literally grew up on a diet of Scooby Doo! It was my favourite cartoon by an absolute mile, with my fave characters a toss-up between that loveable Great Dane and the gorgeous Daphne. In recent years the classic cartoons have been given a new lease of life, first through the feature film versions, and then with Mystery incorporated, which updated the 60s groovy vibes with a more Millennium feel. This was perfect for the more streetwise modern-day kids, but left us fans of the original feeling a little cold, and was more than a little frightening for little ones like my four-year old Joe. So thank goodness for a…

Style Crush – Clemence Poesy
Whatever did we do before the days of digital and satellite television? It is hard to believe that even in my lifetime, there were once just three channels that could be watched through terrestrial TV. And with the lack of choice, it is true to say we watched a whole load of rubbish, as well as the, admittedly, classic television we choose to remember. But these days we have choice, fast broadband allows us to watch great programmes before they hit our screens, and play catch-up on those we have missed, and packages that allow us to join our telephone, tv and broadband mean that we never have to miss must-see…

John Lewis Secret Santa
I’m totally thrilled to say that I am going to be taking part in the John Lewis bloggers Secret Santa this month.

This will be my second secret Santa project, but the first in about eight years. My first took place when I was working as a teacher and was a little bit of a disappointment. Almost all the people involved played it very safe, nearly everyone got a bottle of wine. There was…

Fabulous Fashionista’s – Fabulous Television
There is a definite plus point to the end of summer. The endless amounts of dross that have appeared on your television during those light nights;- the repeats, cheap reality shows (yes Big Brother, I mean you), and the B movies all finally disappear, and we start to get some good quality, well made, and frankly un-missable programmes. This makes Autumn a great time to compare broadband packages to find those with good TV packages like Virgin Media and BT with essentials TV. So far this month I’ve enjoyed the brilliant David Threlfall in ‘What Remains’, uncovering the mysterious death of a lonely girl. I’m currently enthralled by ‘The Guilty’,…

Autumn television – All about Downton again.
I noticed it the other night when I was drawing the curtains before 9pm. It may still be August but the nights are already beginning to close in. And certain television events that remind us that Autumn is literally peering around the corner are almost upon us. Which is why now is a perfect time to check out the new BT broadband packages that are available, offering optimum opportunities for on-demand and catch-up TV, along with the best in high definition. Because, believe me, you are going to want the very best in viewing experiences for the Autumn programme. So, what have I got in my viewing schedule for the…
