A dark odyssey about the fate of sentient life on earth, the Emmy winning series WESTWORLD returns for its eight-episode fourth season with new worlds, conflicts, and complex characters fans will love.
In this season, Maeve and Caleb work together to get to the bottom of William's plans. Meanwhile, Bernard Lowe believes he has found a path for humanity and the hosts to survive and he sets out to realise it.
Westworld takes place in the futuristic and technologically advanced Western theme park 'Westworld' where androids known as hosts cater to their guests' every desire.
Its creator Dr. Robert Ford has designed an expansive experience where wealthy customers pay to immerse themselves in the Wild West, with his artificially intelligent beings on hand to indulge their fantasies. One such customer enters the park in search of a maze and like so many of his fellow clients attacks two of the robots, Teddy and Dolores, shortly after his arrival.
Dolores' subsequent strange behaviour leads Dr. Ford to investigate her programming, which appears normal, but it seems she is not the only host displaying changes in their behaviour...

Double bill of action/adventure. In 'National Treasure' (2004),
Nicolas Cage stars as Benjamin Franklin Gates, an archaeologist
from the seventh generation of a family of treasure-seekers who
have all shared the same quest: to discover the whereabouts of an
old war chest full of gold hidden by the founding fathers in the
last days of the Revolutionary War. Ben must work against the clock
to unravel the clues embedded in the original drafts of two key
historical documents - the Constitution and the Declaration of
Independence - before his criminal ex-partner Ian Howe (Sean Bean),
or the FBI - led by Agent Sadusky (Harvey Keitel) - get their mitts
on the loot. Helping him in his quest is beautiful archivist
Abigail Chase (Diane Kruger). In 'National Treasure 2 - Book of
Secrets' (2008), Nicolas Cage reprises his role as artefact hunter
and archaeologist, Ben Franklin Gates. When a missing page from the
diary of Abraham Lincoln's assassin, John Wilkes Booth, surfaces,
one of Ben's ancestors is implicated as a conspirator in the
murder. In an attempt to clear their family's name, Ben and his
father, Mitch (Jon Voight), travel the globe in search of the other
missing pages from Booth's diary. The journey leads Ben and his
crew not only to surprising revelations, but to the trail of the
world's most treasured secrets.

Created for television by Jonathan Nolan and Lisa Joy, and produced by J.J. Abrams, Westworld is a dark odyssey about the dawn of artificial consciousness and the evolution of sin – exploring a world in which every human appetite, no matter how noble or depraved, can be indulged.
Exploring what it means to be human through the eyes of the lifelike AI “hosts” in the park, the series investigates the boundaries of an exotic world set at the intersection of the near future and the reimagined past. Meticulously crafted and artfully designed, Westworld offers its guests an unparalleled, immersive world where they have the freedom to become who they’ve always wanted to be – or who they never knew they were.
No rules, no laws, no judgment. Live without limits.

Truman Burbank (Jim Carrey) has a seemingly idyllic lifestyle: a
secure job, a loving family and a peaceful home. Yet, unbeknownst
to him, his entire existence has been one long TV series, the
people around him Hollywood actors, the town a massive studio set,
and the whole show orchestrated by a visionary director (Ed
Harris). As the truth begins to dawn on Truman, he resolves to
break free, no matter the consequences for the programme's ratings.
This comic fantasy was one of the most critically acclaimed
mainstream movies of recent years, and was nominated for a Best
Film Oscar.
All 28 episodes from the first three seasons of the hit HBO sci-fi drama.
Westworld takes place in a futuristic and technologically advanced Western theme park where androids known as hosts cater to their guests' every desire. Its creator Dr. Robert Ford (Anthony Hopkins) has designed an expansive experience where wealthy customers pay to immerse themselves in the Wild West, with his artificially intelligent beings on hand to indulge their fantasies. One such customer (Ed Harris) enters the park in search of a maze and like so many of his fellow clients attacks two of the robots, Teddy and Dolores (James Marsden and Evan Rachel Wood), shortly after his arrival.
Dolores' subsequent strange behaviour leads Dr. Ford to investigate her programming, which appears normal, but it seems she is not the only host displaying changes in their behaviour. And it soon becomes clear a reckoning is coming...

National Theatre 2023 Festival, as well as comprehensive workshop

The story of Isleworth Studios is essentially that of the British
film industry from 1914 to 1952. Beginning with the first British
Sherlock Holmes screen adaptation and ending with its Oscar-winning
swansong, The African Queen, in the intervening years it was one of
the most technically advanced studios in the country and home to
some of the best and the worst examples of British cinema. It
experienced the transition from silent films to talkies. Britain's
only movie mogul, Alexander Korda, arrived, looking to rival
Hollywood, followed by Douglas Fairbanks Jr looking to rival Korda.
Buster Keaton struggled with alcoholism; Richard Burton made his
screen debut; Bogart, Hepburn and Huston made a classic; and Emeric
Pressburger directed his first and only film at Isleworth. Little
by little the old dream factory's physical shape is now crumbling
or altered, or is disappearing altogether. Soon it may be gone.
Isleworth Studios has a history worthy of more than just an
addendum in the annals of the British film industry. This is its
story told for the very first time.

While the first 14 books in the Chapters Of Life series dealt with
Luke's life up until 1968, these following books (Luke's Return)
deal with events post 1984, when Luke returned to Bromyard. Whereas
the books dealing with events up to 1968 were taken from the daily
diaries of 4 local Bromyard girls, and are based upon actual events
described within them, these that deal with post 1984 events are
based upon nothing more than pure fiction, only using the framework
of the earlier works to tie them into the location, so as to create
a continuation of Luke's various adventures.

in The Chapters Of Life series, which featured Luke and his
motorbike friends in and around Bromyard in Herefordshire.

4 different local Bromyard girls at that time. All 4 were teenagers
in the 1960?s, though one of them turned 20 in 1964. Follow Luke
and his friends through various escapades in and around the small
market town of Bromyard in Herefordshire. Rated as XXX Not suitable
