An awesome and ridiculous film that leaves you thrilled beyond the point of your natural endurance

Theatre
The show has suddenly become quite wonderful, and the galvanising factor is the terrific stage debut of Melanie C
Blood Brothers
Music
The British pop music industry may be eating itself but if Muse are the pick of what it can offer the world in 2010 then British music is in rude health indeed
Muse
I was smitten by both Gilberts enormous luxuriant moustache and the intelligence and nuance of this highly entertaining play
I totally recommend Babbo to anyone who is looking for really good and traditional Italian food
Always been a fan but never seen them live. I was ecstatic to be part of this epic event. WOW!

Description: Shortly after his girlfriend Judy dumps him for the seventh time, eternal slacker Jimmy Maclaren begrudgingly agrees to go hiking with his girl-crazed best friend, Fletch. The pair end up in the remote town of Cragwich, unaware that the locals have been cursed for centuries by Carmilla the Lesbian Vampire Queen. Every time a village girl turns 18, she is transformed into a Sapphic fanged fiend. To make matters worse, should the blood of a descendant of Camilla's vanquisher, the 17th century vampire hunter Baron Wolfgang Maclaren, ever be spilt along with the blood of a virgin, Camilla will rise again from her grave and enslave all mankind. Jimmy and Fletch join forces with a camper van full of sexy, foreign student girls led by Lotte to despatch Camilla and her undead minions.

Feeble foursome: Mathew Horne, James Corden, Paul McGann and Myanna Buring
This dire movie stars James Corden and Mathew Horne from BBC’s Gavin & Stacey, and it proves yet again how difficult it is to transfer comedy from the telly to the big screen. Better comedians than these two have failed, including Tony Hancock.
Corden and Horne are not helped much by a posse of scantily clad girls who are attacked by a lesbian vampire and sent all sapphic by the experience. None of the female roles is played with anything but caricatured pantomime gusto. The horror is palpably absurd and the comedy reliant on a screenplay of which the starry pair ought to be ashamed. A short dose of Laurel and Hardy might be in order.
The plot has them on a walking holiday when they find themselves stuck in a remote cottage deep in a forest. It turns out that a lesbian vampire, Queen Camilla, lives again after being executed by a vampire hunter back in the 17th century. Armed, courtesy of the local vicar, with the same sword the vampire hunter used to dispatch her, Corden and Horne somehow manage to lift the curse and ogle the girls to their hearts’ content.
Is all this politically incorrect? Yes, of course. But, believe me, it isn’t worth demonstrating about.
