lav made a very important post on twitter today. no one knows what he went through at winkman’s. when lucy got up she probably didn’t realize he was sitting in an electrical chair and when they got out she didn’t ask. he didn’t tell. george asked what they’d been doing all night but lockwood didn’t tell him. he didn’t tell them.

no one knows he was tortured.

Chris McCausland & Lee Mack to star in Sky Original festive special ‘Bad Tidings’ [x]

Rebekah Staton, Sarah Alexander and Ben Crompton join the cast as production commences at Sky Studios Elstree.

Chris McCausland (The Wonders of the World I Can't See) and Lee Mack (Doctor Who, Inside No. 9, Brassic) star in Sky Original ‘Bad Tidings’, a mischievous festive special about two perpetually feuding neighbours in Stockport who become unlikely heroes, saving their street from notorious burglars with wacky booby traps and Great British banter. Written by BAFTA-winning team Laurence Rickard & Martha Howe-Douglas (Ghosts, Horrible Histories) with Chris McCausland, hilarity and hijinks will commence on production this month at Sky Studios Elstree with the special set to air on Sky and NOW this Christmas.

Joining the cast alongside McCausland and Mack are Rebekah Staton, Sarah Alexander, Ben Crompton, Emily Coates, Josiah Eloi, Millie Kiss, Tupele Dorgu, Sunil Patel, Susan Kyd and Donna Preston.

‘Bad Tidings’ follows a tradition of successful festive Sky Originals loved by Sky customers and star a wealth of British talent. Last year, ‘The Heist Before Christmas’ starring James Nesbitt, Timothy Spall and Laura Donnelly, was the biggest rating Sky Original of 2023 and followed 2022’s ‘Christmas Carole’ staring Suranne Jones, and 2021’s ‘The Amazing Mr Blunden’ staring Simon Callow, Tamsin Greig and Mark Gatiss.

This year’s Sky Original Christmas special revolves around grumpy home-security expert Neil (Mack) and his neighbour Scott (McCausland), who insists on keeping his Christmas lights illuminated all-year-round. And mixing up their bins, criticising Neil’s ‘project’ car and generally winding him up. Basically, Scott’s a git. He’s also blind and all the other neighbours think he’s great. 

When Scott is appointed head of the Neighbourhood Watch, Neil is the only one to question his suitability for the role. Their tit-for-tat argument culminates in Neil triggering a power-cut across the entire street. On Christmas Eve. 

Everyone is forced to evacuate, and Neil and Scott are left alone and on guard. But the local crime family decide to rob every house on the street in a single night, and the pair must set aside their differences to defeat them. They’ve got no lights, no cameras, no alarms and one of them is blind. Which might just be an advantage… 

Chris McCausland said: “Talk about a back of an envelope idea that has got out of hand, we are now making a Christmas comedy film and it's going to be awesome. I can't wait to get up to some hilarious mayhem with Lee and bring some festive spirit into people's living rooms this Christmas!”

Lee Mack added: “I love Chris McCausland, I love the script and I Iove Christmas. Where do I sign?”

‘Bad Tidings’ is written by Laurence Rickard & Martha Howe-Douglas with Chris McCausland, and is produced by Sky Studios. The film is directed by Tim Kirkby with Adnan Ahmed from Sky Studios producing. Anil Gupta Executive Produces for Sky Studios. NBCUniversal Global TV Distribution handles international sales on behalf of Sky Studios.

102 Dalmatians is twice as hilarious!

Hey guys! I’m here to do a review for the movie “102 Dalmatians!” I loved this movie because it’s twice as hilarious as the first one! The movie is about Cruella DeVil getting out of prison and going after the puppies again. With the cast of Glenn Close, Gerard Depardieu, Ioan Gruffudd, Alice Evans, Tim McInnerny, Eric Idle, Ben Crompton, Jim Carter, Ron Cook and Ian Richardson. I think the…

Lockwood & Co. (Season 1)

TV Shows/Dramas watched in 2023

Lockwood & Co. (Season 1, 2023, UK)

Directors: Joe Cornish, William McGregor & Catherine Morshead

Writers: Joe Cornish, Joy Wilkinson, Ed Hime & Kara Smith

Mini-review:

I enjoyed this a lot more than I expected based on the first teaser! It's fast paced, engaging and very fun, even if it's far from perfect. Sometimes the pace and the developments feel kinda rushed, and it's obvious from the very first episode that the show needed a bigger budget than the one they were given. But I didn't have much problem brushing that off, cause the three characters at the core of it all are just that good. It's a combination of personalities that always works well and the cast pulls it off with great chemistry. I really do think this aspect is what carries the show and makes it so watchable, regardless of its flaws. By the end of it I was actually itching to find and read the books, but I think I'll wait to see whether this gets a second season or not.

Lockwood & Co. Season 1 – TV Review

TL;DR – This was a fascinating series with an exciting premise yet to show its full hand, but I want to see where it goes. ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Rating: 3.5 out of 5. Disclosure – I paid for the Netflix service that viewed this series. Lockwood & Co. Review – There are some shows that you check out just because there is an idea that is so interesting that you need to check it out. What happens if ghosts are…
