Upcoming Entertainment

A couple of things have been brought to my attention today, and it's all very exciting.

Starting with the return of Absolute Power to BBC2, Thursday nights at 10pm. The first series of this was absolutely brilliant, Stephen Fry and John Bird put on a fine performance as the founders of a large London PR company. So absurd yet completely believable. You must watch this! (thanks for pointing it out Dave)

And finally, the long awaited release of Star Wrek: In The Pirkinning, a low budget, high effects little spoof sci-fi number from Finland. Star Trek meets Babylon 5. The trailers are excellent, available to download now. And the film itself will be released on the 20th August, can't wait. In the spirit of the creative commons, it'll be available to download for free as well as buy on DVD. How great is that?! The production of a full feature film with massive effects, a tiny budget and most of it being shot in someone's living room is truly inspiring.
