Doctor Who Series 6 Part 1

EP4: I think the episode was satisfactory, not one of the best plots as it was very confusing. It was good seeing new parts of the TARDIS. However I didn't like the idea of the TARDIS being a girl. 6/10
EP3: Ahoy there, episode 3 of Doctor Who was great. People may disagree with me but I really enjoyed it. 7.10
EP2: What an action packed episode, from the first minute this episode was destined to be good. River Song is getting ever more interesting. It was not very confusing how they killed the Silence so that was also good!
EP1: The new series was back on our screens last Saturday and I thought the first episode was truly brilliant however according to some newspaper reviews I read the next day, appartently they are trying too hard. I think that is nonsense though because I can't wait until the next episode.

Great idea!

Why don't we make the Branksome Bugle into a documentary film? It could be called the story of the Branksome Bugle and it could have interviews mixed with short films and pitchers. In the film it could have James May playing as Liam P, Sybil Fawlty playing as Katie A, Jennifer Anderson playing as Rebecca P, James Corden playing as James A, Dawn French as Elisabeth Davey, Rupert Grint as Ben Maclean, Dame Judy Dench as Mrs Surtees and Paul Daniels as Mr Coyne!
What a good documentary film that would be we could also have James Cameron directing.
On a serious side though I think it would be a good idea, it could recall some of the best bugle moments like when we went to London and when we went to the Northern Echo. It could also recall some of the not so good memories like when Katie gets bossy!

The Kings Speech

This movie is like nothing I have ever seen. It is telling the story of when King George VI was becoming King. He suffered from a stammer and therefor needed a speech therapist. With his speech therapist the King successfully made speeches though. He still struggled however he worked hard and eventually became a successful ruler. This movie will tear at your heart strings as you follow the King through from 1936 to 1938 when he eventually becomes king and then to 1939 as the second world war begins.
Branksome Bugle rating: 5/5

Gnomeo and Juliet

This cartoon film is a hilarious version of William Shakespeare's Romeo and Juliet however they have changed it so it is more child friendly. Instead of having two Italian families in deep hate it is 2 back gardens who's garden gnomes fight behind closed doors. When Juliet from the Capulet garden sees a beautiful flower and tries to retrieve it she runs into Gnomeo and it is love at first sight. The famous people doing the voices for this film are very good however for some reason I don't think this movie is anything special. I only went to see the movie because there was nothing better on. So for that reason I can't give it 5/5.

Branksome Bugle rating: 4/5

Don't stare!

Next time there is a lonely cyclist stood at the traffic lights infront off you, please don't stare. If the time is 7:45 on a cold winters morning and there is nothin else to look at just think that cyclist is embarraced in his dark blue helmet. He can feel everytime you look from your warm car window and besides what has he ever done to you? So please be aware of him so you don't run him over but remember to not stare for that cyclist is me!
