Advantages: Great show, different format to other shows of its kind, great presenting. Disadvantages: Annoying time fillers, too much make up, wouldnt survive now.
StarsIn Their Eyes was hosted by Matthew Kelly and was shown on Saturday nights on ITV1 (just ITV back then).
The concept of the show is that members of the public would write in to say who they looked and sounded like when singing and then some of them would be selected to go on to the show and then perform in front of the live audience and for the members of the public at home.
Before the performance there would be an introduction to the person and you would be told their name, where they came from & what they did for a living. Quite often you would be shown around their homes too and I never thought that this had any purpose to the show other than as a time filler. Once the act had their make-up done and were ready they emerged through some smoke and then out on to the stage to do their performance.
I remember the first ...
Advantages: An interesting and entertaining insight into 1911 society Disadvantages: Perhaps concentrates too much on the antics of the upper classes
Vividly described in Juliet Nicolson's book, the summer of 1911 was one of the hottest of the last century. It is often said that the British love to talk about the weather. Well, people of all backgrounds must certainly have found plenty to say during the five month period covered by this book. The events of the summer were diverse, including a coronation, strikes at the dockyards, a hectic calender of social occasions for the wealthy, and a daily battle to survive for the poor. Juliet Nicolson uses the soaring temperatures as the thread that links together the people who appear in her book. Whether aristocrats or factory workers, they were all experiencing 'The Perfect Summer'. But was it really so perfect?

Advantages: 127 mins of sheer warp speed adventure. The best Star Trek ever an outstanding movie Disadvantages: Not enough of it you want more
Someone told me the other day that ?People who like Star Trek are nerds!? The ensuing conversation brought up words like geek, weird, odd and resulting in my colleagues announcing that I am on another planet; with a black hole for a brain. It really gets on my goat when a handful of tactless people make those daft sorts of comments.
A Facebook contact cheered me up saying ?It?s true...but being a nerd, geek or weird is something to be proud of! Who would want to be a dim, colourless, corporate drone?? I agree therefore I will stand up proudly and say, ?I AM A NERD AND? I LIKE STAR TREK? I, like millions of other people. Don?t get me wrong, I am not one of those fans who swat up on the techno-babble or know specific dimensions and details, I don?t dress up as my favourite character. I have never been to a convention although I did ...
