Found-footage adventure thriller, as a team of explorers in the
Congolese jungle chance upon a colony of dinosaurs. Richard Dillane
and Matt Kane star as a father and son team who, along with a TV
crew, set off to search for a mythical water creature rumoured to
be existing in the African jungle. But soon after embarking on
their expedition, the group's objectives change dramatically when
their helicopter is forced to crash land by a flock of prehistoric
birds. As they begin to explore their new surroundings, they soon
realise that they've stumbled upon an area where dinosaurs still
exist, and that unless they can find a way out, they'll be the ones
facing extinction.

This beautiful publication narrates the romantic biography of an
architecturally significant country residence and its rescue from
decline. Dating from the mid-15th century, Apethorpe in
Northamptonshire was home to a succession of leading courtiers and
politicians. At the command of King James I, the house was
refurbished with a richly decorated state apartment. The suite,
with its series of rare plaster ceilings and carved chimneypieces,
unquestionably ranks as one of the finest-and least known-in
Britain. In 2004, English Heritage rescued the house from ruin and
has since restored it to much of its glory. This book places
Apethorpe in its wider historical and architectural context,
comparing it with other Tudor and Jacobean houses. It sheds new
light on the furnishing, decoration, and circulation patterns of
state suites in country homes. Written by architectural and
archeological experts from Historic England, this monograph, the
first on Apethorpe, is illustrated with new and historical
photographs, paintings, maps, engravings, and specially
commissioned interpretive drawings that reveal how the house looked
at key moments in its history. Published for the Paul Mellon Centre
for Studies in British Art
