Submarine (2010)
I love a good old British movie to cheer me up on my homesick days. I have watched this movie before (while being ill so I didn’t take anything in) this week I was scrolling Netflix and I came across it again and re-watched it! I have to say…it was a bit bizarre but I did enjoy it !
“15-year-old Oliver Tate has two objectives: To lose his virginity before his next birthday, and to extinguish the flame between his mother and an ex-lover who has resurfaced in her life. “ –IMBD
It features, Craig Roberts as Oliver Tate (Tracy Beaker, Being Human), Yasmin Paige as Jordana Bevan, Sally Hawkins as Oliver’s mother, Jill Tate.

Agatha Christie, Marple (2004- )
If you are a fan of mysteries like Sherlock, or period dramas like Downtown Abbey this ITV show is worth watching! It features many different recognizable actors and actresses in these 1hr and half episodes. Agatha Christie’s famous character, Miss Marple. An elderly spinster, with the observant skills of Sherlock Holmes and the appearance of Betty White…well the actress Geraldine McEwan, will most definitely get you thinking as the mystery unravels.
This show is much like Sherlock, although it is set in 1950s in the village St Mary Mead , not modern day London and acts as an amateur detective.
 
Music:

Hermit the Frog Marina and the Diamonds
I love this song! It is so different and fresh. Mariana and the diamonds (Mariana Diamandis) is a half welsh (yeees!!) and half Greek singer. I find she has a similar style voice to Lana Del Ray and Paloma Faith and the song styles of Ellie Goulding, Little Boots and Rita Ora.
 
Celebrity:

Felicity Jones
If you’ve been reading some of my posts you might have noticed that a re-occurring actress is Felicity Jones. She has played a leading role in Chalet Girl , Like Crazy and Albatross (the movies I’ve seen her in) and also has starred in Doctor Who (The Unicorn and the wasp, series 4)She has such a wide range of talent and I like all her characters in all the movies she’s been in.

City of Bones  The Mortal Instruments
If you haven’t heard of the Mortal Instruments franchise…honestly?! No I’m kidding, no really though…you should look out for it! It is a really great read!
What is it about?  - The City of Bones is a young adult novel that is the first part of the trilogy, The Mortal Instrument.  This sub-urban fantasy is set in New York City where fifteen year old Clary Fray and her best friend Simon are at the Pandemonium night club, in which Clary witnesses are rather peculiar murder. A blue haired teenage boy is murdered by three strange looking teenagers, although the only problem is no one but Clary can see them.
Basically, she enters a hidden world that lies within our own, a world of magic, chaos, demons and angels. Bla bla bla, your typical fantasy…but a really good one!
Thaanks for reading!
