The other week I was out shopping , when I decided to have a rummage in one of the many charity shops in my local town. I find shops like these great for finding DVDs and books (quite often , in very good condition!) at a really good price , and so I find by buying these this way I save a lot of a money and get more DVDs for a £10 in the shop , than I can if I buy them on the internet.
Browsing through the huge collection of DVDs , all standing neatly on the shelves before my eyes , One with a red cover caught my eyes. 'Jimmy Carr : In Concert' was the title. I didn't really know much about this Jimmy Carr , although I remember him being a guest on a television chat show programme (I think it was Charlotte Church's show) and finding him quite funny , and so I decided what he was really like as a stand-up comedian.
Jimmy Carr is ...
Advantages: great comedy, nice filming, good acting Disadvantages: quite short, can be silly
, if you can suspend your disbelief long enough to believe that Jimmy could indeed build a germ-proof, breathable, seemingly indestructible bubble suit, then it?s a much easier film to enjoy.

I am an avid Doctor Who fan, I love it so much! This amazing show is a sci-fi family show about a man called the Doctor, a Time Lord. He travels around the universe in his large blue box known as the Tardis (Time and Relative Dimension in Space), saving all the poor innocent people from the clutches of the evil creatures.
