Links There wasn't a Review 2019, at least nothing taggable. There were the usual predictions (about which I couldn't be more wrong for either year) and a Review 2010s in which I list my favourite books, films and television of that decade largely one per year. There's nothing much here I disagree with three years later (god, is it only three years since 2019?).
I still think more people should see the film Advantageous which is still on Netflix. Written and directed by Jennifer Phang, it should have been a spring board into a long cinema career but she's nevertheless instead found a niche on TV directing episodes of things like The Expanse, Cloak & Dagger, The Boys, Foundation, The Flight Attendant and Stargirl.
"Easy peasy pigs in blankets with a gorgeous maple syrup glaze. A Christmas favourite, these are supersized and guaranteed to go down a treat."
"The East Yorkshire-based frozen food giant is much cheaper than Asda and Tesco's offers."
"Skeleton crews on Antarctic research bases - known as 'winterovers' - wait until June for the festivities to begin."
"In this Midwestern town, it’s Santa season 365 days a year, with decorations and carols."
"The Challenge returns for a second year with a series of fiendish brainteasers and a final twist!"
"The land of Punt, a mysterious place where ancient Egyptians bought gold, incense and other luxury items, has been located using DNA from mummified baboons."
"Mention frankincense, and it’s hard not to instantaneously think of Christmas."
"Frome has a flourishing independent retail scene, with dozens of locally owned shops and cafes, but even here, campaigners are warning local stores are at risk."
‘We’re introducing viewers to the man behind the lack of sweat’: making Prince Andrew – The Musical:
"As part of its ‘Truth or Dare’ season, Channel 4 is setting the life of Prince Andrew to a series of song and dance numbers. But is this musical take on the disgraced royal too much, too soon?"
"Christmas celebration in Norway is a true feast of lights, full of events, preparations, and traditions that last a whole season. White snow and decorations add to the magic."
