How about that lung-eating virus that kept us all at home all year, eh? It’s normal for me at this time of year to feel some sort of urge to write an “end of year roundup” post about all the stuff I’ve done, in a sort of nod towards the …
OK so one element of this “media roundup” tradition I’ve started for myself seems to be that I don’t actually write most of the notes til the end of the year, which inevitably spill over into the next year, and the recollections I have are sketchy to the point of …
Rekindling a tradition I guess I’ve started for myself, I’ve figured out a way to put together a list of all the films, TV and books that I’ve pointed my eye-stalks at this year – and the fanciness is that for 2019 and beyond I can write the summaries as …
In break with last year’s effort, I thought maybe February would be a good time to go through the process of my annual Film, Book and TV roundup. Initially aiming to get this written up in January, I found myself thinking “But, who cares?”. And then remembering the reason I …
Mid-March isn’t too late for a 2014 roundup, is it? It’s still the same financial year… and I’d hate to break the chain now that I’ve done this for 2011, 2012 and 2013! So, with that, here’s the 2014 Media Lists. With a rudimentary thumbs up/down system, just for giggles. …

As begun last year (and, even slightly MORE delayed than last year), I thought an ideal blog topic was a list of the films that I watched over the last 12 months, and a brief description of each (in the ongoing quest to try to write a blogpost of under …
Following the recent post on the books I read in 2011, here’s a roundup of all the movies that I saw this year. I’ll highlight the ones wot I saw in the cinema, somehow. As mentioned previously, this is sort of inspired by Billy’s post of a similar nature last …
I’m not sure that I get massively turned on by end-of-year retrospectives and Top Tens (you can put together a top ten ANY time – why limit it based on some arbitrary calendar point?). However last year I was interested whilst reading Billy’s blog to see that he’d kept lists …
