Will Smith and Tommy Lee Jones reprise their roles as Agents J and
K in this third instalment of the sci-fi action comedy. Agent J
(Smith) has long been every bit as perplexed by the
perpetually-surly countenance of his older partner, Agent K
(Jones), as he has been by the variety of aliens the pair are
charged with keeping under control. However, when alien forces
assassinate K with such extraterrestrial efficiency Agent J seems
to be the only person to believe that K hasn't been dead for 40
years, the younger man is at a loss and determines to get his
partner back. With the aid of a terrifying 'time jump', Agent J
travels back to MIB's early years in the 1960s. Here he hooks up
with a younger Agent K (Josh Brolin) and attempts to prevent his
death and change the course of history. Will he also learn a thing
or two about the secrets of the universe the older K kept so close
to his chest?
The World's End (2013)
Galvanised by Gary (Pegg), 40-somethings Oliver (Martin Freeman), Andy (Frost), Steven (Paddy Considine) and Peter (Eddie Marsan) return to their home town for one more attempt at trying to reach the legendary pub, 'The World's End'. But after setting out on their quest, taking in watering holes such as 'The Two Headed Dog' and 'The Famous Cock', the friends' objective soon pales into insignificance when they realise that the fate of the entire human race may ultimately rest in their hands.
Hot Fuzz (2007)
When a hotshot young London sergeant, Nicholas Angel (Pegg)'s arrest record puts the whole Metropolitan force to shame, his superiors ship him off to a rural posting hoping they've heard the last of him. The sleepy hamlet he's posted to however, behind all the lace-curtain politeness, is a hotbed of grisly murder and vigilante-ism. His diligence and character sits ill with the locals - all except the Sergeant's layabout son Danny Butterman (Frost), who's a huge fan of the cop buddy movie genre. The pair bond and end up taking on a sinister cult of local pensioners in a guns-blazing, granny-kicking, rocket-launching gore-fest aimed at restoring order.
Shaun Of The Dead (2004)
Shaun (Pegg) is a useless but likeable thirty-something who works in an electronics shop in Crouch End. He doesn't get much respect from his fellow staff, even though he's standing in as temporary boss; his girlfriend Liz (Kate Ashfield) has had enough of his lack of direction and penchant for downing pints in the local pub; and he doesn't get on with his stepdad (Bill Nighy). Things get worse when the living dead make their appearance, threatening to spread their zombie curse across the nation. Will Shaun be able to rise from his sofa to save the lives of the two women he loves - Liz and his dear old mum?
'The clock is ticking, and all life is in danger, yet we still have
time. . . . So let us take the first steps and go out to encounter
the other - those who are different from us. Let us put our hands,
minds, and hearts into working together. Let us be the change we
want to see in the world.' Pope Francis In his most challenging and
outward-facing book yet, Pope Francis reflects on ten vital issues
the world is facing today. I Am Asking in the Name of God is an
unflinching and inspiring work that celebrates the tenth
anniversary of Francis' papal election and encompasses his hopes
and dreams for the Church and for all humanity. The book is being
released in over a dozen other languages throughout the world.
Among other prayers, Pope Francis is asking in the name of God *
for the media to reject fake news and renounce hateful language *
for a stop to the madness of war * for the welcome of migrants and
refugees * for the eradication of the culture of abuse from within
the Church I Am Asking in the Name of God is the Pope's manifesto
for the world: a heartfelt call for all people to to embrace and
encourage the good, while rejecting and renouncing the dark forces
of hatred, greed, deceit and delusion that threaten to engulf us.
These words of wisdom from Pope Francis are both practical and
realistic, as well as hopeful. They provide a clear vision of the
peaceful, just and sustainable world - and as such, should matter
to anyone who wants to work for a better world. The perfect book
for all admirers of the Pope and the progressive changes he's
introducing within the Catholic Church, I Am Asking in the Name of
God will also appeal to anyone who desires a better world and wants
to work together for positive change.
Pop this book in your suitcase for the perfect summer holiday
distraction. Kids will enjoy searching for the target words in
illustrated grids with themes from airports, beaches and castles to
travel, water sports and zoos. The puzzles grow more challenging
throughout the book. All the answers are at the back.

Three years on from the previous blockbuster, Marvel comic book
character Spider-Man returns in his latest adventure. Peter Parker
(Tobey Maguire) and his girl Mary-Jane (Kirsten Dunst) are on the
cusp of contentment - but not for long. His ex-friend Harry (James
Franco), son of the Green Goblin of the first film, becomes the New
Goblin in his desire for revenge against Spider-Man. Fugitive Flint
Marko (Thomas Haden Church), killer of Peter's Uncle Ben, has been
transformed into the shape-shifting Sandman, possibly Spider-Man's
toughest foe so far. To complicate matters further, a parasitic
alien symbiote has attached itself to Peter's suit, giving him even
greater powers but also bringing out the evil side of his
personality. He has to struggle not only against two major
adversaries but also against himself.

Animated television adaptation of Roald Dahl's famous 'Revolting
Rhymes'. The series of shorts feature the voice talents of David
Walliams, Tamsin Greig, Dominic West and Rob Brydon.
A riveting look at the perpetrators, victims, and whistleblowers
behind financial crimes from acclaimed professor and documentarian
Kelly Richmond Pope. Have you ever wondered why Bernie Madoff
thought he could brazenly steal his clients' money? Or why
investors were so easily duped by Elizabeth Holmes? Or how
courageous people like Jeffrey Wigand are willing to become
whistleblowers and put their careers on the line? Fraud is
everywhere-from Nigerian "princes," embezzlers, and Ponzi schemers
to corporate giants like Enron and Volkswagen. And fraud is costly.
Each year, consumers, small businesses, governments, and
corporations lose trillions of dollars. We've become so accustomed
to hearing about fraud, we accept it as part of the world we live
in today-so much so, that our abilities to identify it and speak
about it are limited. No more. In Fool Me Once, renowned expert
Kelly Richmond Pope shows fraud in action, uncovering what makes
perps tick, victims so gullible, and whistleblowers so morally
righteous, while also encouraging us to look at our own behaviors
and motivations in the hopes of protecting ourselves and our
companies. By the time you finish this book, you'll have a better
understanding of-and perhaps more compassion for-perpetrators; a
renewed connection to victims; and an appreciation for those who
blow the whistle. Filled with fascinating stories and insightful
analysis, Fool Me Once will open your eyes and challenge your
thinking. It will inspire you to question your own preconceived
notions and commonly held beliefs about people while providing an
insider's view of a phenomenon that most of us fail to understand
until it's too late.
