All four adaptations of the C.S. Lewis children's books using live action and animation to recreate the magical world of Narnia. In 'The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe' (1988) it is a quiet sort of day in the English countryside when Peter, Susan, Edmund and Lucy stumble through the back of an old wardrobe into the enchanted land of Narnia and embark on an extraordinary adventure. When the White Witch learns of their presence, their lives are in danger, but there is talk that Aslan is on the move. 'Prince Caspian' (1989) sees the four child heroes return to the magical land of Narnia, where evil King Miraz and Queen Punaprisma have usurped the throne. The rightful heir, Caspian, is in hiding. The children join the rebels who want to reinstate Caspian as their prince. In 'Voyage of the Dawn Treader' (1989) the child heroes, with their unpleasant cousin Edmund, find themselves aboard Prince Caspian's ship, the 'Dawn Treader', on a voyage to the edge of the world. Along the way they learn many valuable lessons as they seek the seven Lords of Narnia. Finally, in 'The Silver Chair' (1990) Jill and Eustace search for Prince Rillian, aided by Puddlegum.

Joanna Scanlan (The Thick of It, Getting On), Elaine Cassidy (The Paradise, Harper's Island) and Alexandra Roach (The Iron Lady, Utopia) lead the unorthodox crack team of cops at the heart of Paul Abbott's NO OFFENCE, an outrageous new police procedural series from the writer of Shameless and State of Play. Will Mellor (Dates, Broadchurch), Paul Ritter (Friday Night Dinner, The Game) and Colin Salmon (Arrow, 24: Live Another Day), join them in the mix of tough but big-hearted bobbies who go above and beyond to bring down the criminal rabble in a crumbling cop-shop. Keeping these streets clean is a Herculean task, enough to demoralize even the keenest rookie but there's a reason why this hotchpotch of committed cops are on this force, on this side of town. Drug labs, arsonists, neo-Nazis and notorious murderers are all in a day's work for this close-knit team, led by the dizzyingly capable but unquestionably unhinged DI Vivienne Deering (Scanlan). But when a particularly twisted serial killer emerges it leaves even the most hardened of these seasoned coppers reeling. Flanked by her right-hand women the compassionate but impulsive DC Dinah Kowalska (Cassidy) and the recently (surprisingly) promoted DS Joy Freers (Roach) Deering and her team must crack this case by whatever unconventional means possible. Because amidst all the assorted low life; the pimps, the petty thieves, and downright nasty bastards they've dealt with, this is their most disturbing case yet, one that will touch their lives in ways they could never expect.
Comedy in which two rival musicians are handcuffed together at a music festival. Adam (Luke Treadway) and Morello (Natalia Tena) appear to be as far apart from each other as performers at the same festival can be.

Morello, in contrast, fronts the 'Dirty Pinks', an up-and-coming female indie band. When the two are handcuffed together by an eccentric festival-goer, who proceeds to make off with the key, the pair can only hope the unifying power of music will work its magic. Not least as they both have to take to the stage that day... |
