Entertainment media now comprise one of the world's largest
industries, yet they remain one of the least studied aspects of
contemporary mass media. Every day hundreds of millions of people
watch television programs that might broadly be described as
'entertainment', notably in the rapidly developing countries of
Asia. However we still have little idea of what drives the
production of Asian entertainment television, how audiences engage
with television or how political and social elites understand the
impact of television on the massive audiences. While India and
China have attracted recent media attention, Indonesia has remained
largely unnoticed. As Indonesia has the largest Muslim population
in the world, is engaged in rapid modernization and the transition
to democracy in significant part through the mass media, serious
attention is long overdue. The topics covered include: talent
shows, crime and supernatural Reality TV, travel programmes, talent
quests and popular music This book, with contributions from
recognized experts on Indonesian media, is therefore of particular
importance not just for explaining what is going on in Indonesian
popular television, but also for establishing a theoretical
framework for the study of entertainment media in other societies.
The collection is essential for anyone wishing to know about
entertainment media, Asian television and contemporary approaches
to the study of Asian mass and popular media.

The Protector is back. Mickey Bale must hunt down military-grade
warheads in this gripping British thriller from Anthony Riches.
Former close protection officer Mickey Bale has a dangerous
skillset. One that many men, good and bad, want to make use of.
That's why a powerful oligarch wants to hire Mickey to protect him.
And with his wife gone and his track record with the Met in
tatters, Mickey doesn't have a choice. But when a terrorist attack
kills a police firearms team, MI5 suspect that Mickey's new client
and the Russian GRU are involved. The bomb was a military-grade
Sunburn missile warhead. And there are more warheads out there.
Blackmailed by MI5 into spying on the client he was hired to
protect, Mickey is pushed to his limits by his new double-agent
status. If he doesn't locate the other warheads, thousands of
civilians will die - and time is running out... Reviews for Anthony
Riches: 'An utterly compelling read' Manda Scott 'The Bill meets
Jack Reacher' The Times 'A full-throttle adventure that twists and
turns' Andy McNab

ADVENTURE BEYOND THE STARS David Artan is a dock rat on a poor
fringe world where he takes every job he can and prize-fights to
earn enough money to get off world. When he’s hired to guide a
boat crewed by an interstellar mafia, he comes face to face wit
The Doctor, Mel and Hebe are reunited – but Purity's temporal
meddling has altered history as they know it. To make matters
worse, whatever is left of the being once known as Patricia McBride
is still intent on fulfilling her grand design for humanity.
Contains three new adventures; 4.1 Girl in a Bubble by Jacqueline
Rayner. The TARDIS arrives in Hebe’s flat but it’s not how the
Doctor and Mel remember it – and neither is Hebe! In Purity's new
timeline, Hebe Harrison lives in a grand penthouse with armed
guards and a live-in factotum – Ron! – and if she ever leaves
her sanctuary... the world will end. Are these strangers the ones
who have been sending her messages? And can this reality be undone
without losing Hebe forever? 4.2 The Corruptions by Mark Wright.
Melanie Bush is a popular part of the Pease Pottage village
community, and her best friend Hebe runs the local café where
Elise the florist often drops by. Elsewhere, the Doctor is trapped
in a nightmarish realm – Pease Pottage Services – unable to
cross the boundary of the motorway where shadowy creatures drift
amid the traffic. Purity is watching, and if the Doctor attempts to
rescue his friends... they will cease to exist. 4.3 The Wrong Side
of History by Robert Valentine. Mel, Hebe and Elise find themselves
inside a plastic bubble-city in a distant future of humanity where
robotic ‘Purifiers’ police the sickly populace. Purity rules
this antiseptic nightmare from her high tower, and with the Doctor
as her unwilling new helper, she can finally make everything...
perfect. CAST: Colin Baker (The Doctor), Bonnie Langford (Melanie
Bush), Ruth Madeley (Hebe Harrison), Imogen Stubbs (Purity /
Patricia McBride / Purifiers), Toby Hadoke (Ron), Kacey Ainsworth
