Review: Emma

A sumptuous Emma... and she looks like she's a bit of a handful.

Emma review: An unexpectedly sexy Valentine's Day watch

Anya Taylor-Joy plays the aristocratic matchmaker Emma in this chocolate-box adaptation of Jane Austen's beloved novel.

Stars condemn ban on Pride screening in Turkey

Cast of [y]2014[/] film sign open letter 'deploring' governor's decision to forbid screening, as well as country's ban on yearly LGBT march.

Madden's twinkly comedy takes an A-list of Brit thesps - Maggie Smith, Judi Dench, Bill Nighy and all - and plonks them in a crumbling hotel in Rajasthan, seeking a cheaper retirement. The contrived antics don't quite do the illustrious cast justice, but it charmed its way to a sequel.

There's an unashamedly Great British feel to this transatlantic production of Douglas Adams's funny sci-fi novel. Having dressing-gowned Martin Freeman as befuddled space traveller Arthur Dent is like Doctor Who gatecrashing Star Wars. But it's a witty, beautifully designed adventure, with starry comic turns from Bill Nighy, John Malkovich and Helen Mirren.

When the zombies invade, it takes north London slacker Shaun (Simon Pegg) a while to notice, so wrapped up is he in his own world of the pub, on-off romance with Kate Ashfield's Liz, and the pub. But soon he's involved in a blend of deadpan humour and horror, ending in a John Carpenter-like siege - in the pub. Penelope Wilton and Bill Nighy add some feeling as Shaun's parents.

There are shades of Made in Dagenham in this inspirational tale of industrial action. It's set during the 1984 miners' strike and recounts the birth of the Lesbians and Gays Support the Miners movement, bringing macho miners and metrosexuals together in funny, rousing, sexy union. Ben Schnetzer is feisty Mark Ashton, the gay campaigner who leads a delegation to link up with the miners of Onllwyn, and the marvellous cast includes Bill Nighy, Paddy Considine and Imelda Staunton.

Red Nose Day reprise was no laughing matter

The much-hyped Comic Relief sequel to Richard Curtis's film was a real let-down.

Red Nose Day Actually review

Despite all the celeb cameos the charity update of Richard Curtis's romcom was bafflingly weak. But ultimately its job wasn't to get laughs - it was to help people.
