Documentary Season (TV)

I wanted to talk a little bit about documentaries, since I’m currently working on my second documentary project at university and there seems to be an awful lot of documentaries out there to explore right now (especially across the BBC). I’ve listed below a few of the documentaries I’ve watched recently and whether or not…

Zante In Photographs

I’ve finally got round to editing and sorting my many photographs which were taken on my first holiday alone abroad in Zakynthos, Greece. (Or Zante as it’s more well known) I wanted to share a few of my favourite shots with you. Above are a few shots from in and around the hotel site, me…

Reggie Yates: Life & Death In Chicago

This is one of the most powerful and moving documentaries I have watched in a long, long time. The main reason I have decided to share my opinions about this particular documentary, is because I feel it could really create some conversations – good conversations about important things which NEED to be changed NOW. Okay,…

One of Us – BBC’s Dark Drama

I first saw this drama advertised on the BBC back in August and was instantly intrigued by it’s narrative. To me it seemed like a typical murder mystery set within a close-knit family however it’s so much more than that….. The story starts with childhood sweethearts Adam Elliot and Grace Douglas who have returned home…

Summer Of Film

I have never been a fan of attending the cinema during the summer months, as usually the films which are shown unfortunately tend to be a disappointment to say the least. It is well known in the film industry that May-September are the months in which the biggest of the blockbusters rake in their cash….

The BFG

Okay so I’ve been waiting to see this feature for what feels like forever – as a huge fan of both Roald Dahl and Spielberg I couldn’t wait to see what this film (created by two – quite frankly – geniuses) was like. I certainly wasn’t disappointed…. Firstly, lets give readers out there that aren’t familiar…

Comic-Con Trailers – My Top 5

Fantastic Beasts and Where To Find Them – Full-length Trailer Reveal So far we had only been given a tiny taste of the ‘new era of magic’ that is set to be released in November, so this first full-length trailer gives us more of a sense of the narrative that will unfold. To put it…

Summer Days in Aldeburgh

I wanted to post a little bit about one of my favourite places to go during the summer – Aldeburgh beach in Suffolk. Every time I have visited this quiet little costal town it’s been so utterly tranquil and relaxed, I love it so much. When you have a head like mine that just never…

OITNB

Firstly, apologies for not posting in a while – mine and my mother’s birthdays both took place this week and therefore I have been UBER busy preparing for and celebrating both occasions. Now everything has calmed down again, I can settle back into blogging – today I’ve decided to write my new found obsession with…

Summer Viewing: Festival Season

I always adore this time of year – whether or not I’m lucky enough to be one of the actual festival attendees, I am always glued to my tv screen watching an amazing array of musical acts. If you hadn’t guessed already – I LOVE music –  everything about it. I couldn’t not share a…

Independence Day

Recently I came across a showing of this classic science-fiction/adventure/disaster film on television, I couldn’t resist having a watch of this highly-acclaimed feature. Plus the sequel is currently out in cinemas (Independence Day: Resurgence) so it’s an ideal time to write about why you guys should go see it! 🙂 So the narrative is split into…

The Next Disney Animation…

So after what seems like forever, Disney have announced their next Disney princess. I don’t know how they’re even going to get close to the popularity of Elsa and Anna, however I’m sure that Moana will be quite the contender. So far the plot is as follows; A young woman, named Moana uses her brilliant…
