This is Daniel Craig’s final outing as 007 aka James Bond and by this first trailer it looks rather epic in action film terms, lets just hope that it does not disappoint!
Best Feature
This really does look rather epic and throwing Florence Pugh in with Scarlett Johansson is certainly the best idea. As well as Rachel Weisz and David Harbour, from this teaser trailer it is clear that we are going to get the very best of Marvel in terms of action and humour all mixed together.
It’s show time! The curtain is set to rise on this year’s panto at The Customs House this week and rehearsals are in full swing.
More than 25,000 tickets have already been snapped up for Snow White, which is looking to break the audience record set last year by Beauty and the Beast, which was seen by more than 29,000 people.
And while the finishing touches are being put to this year’s production, next year’s panto has also been announced. Tickets for Rapunzel go on sale on Thursday, November 28 – the date The Customs House officially celebrates its 25th anniversary.
Snow White was the first panto to be performed at The Customs House when it opened in 1994 and is being brought back for the first time as part of the anniversary celebrations.

Another amazing bit of news about Imelda Staunton and both Came around the same time. She is returning to the West End to play Dolly in Hello, Dolly! I am sure she will be as outstanding as ever and make me want to head down to London for a lovely trip. I have seen her in the last three productions she has starred in Gypsy (twice), Who’s Afraid of Virginia Woolf and Follies. I have also been lucky enough to see Hello, Dolly on Broadway with Bette Midler so I hope they use that version of the show as it was visually stunning!
Jenna Russell has also been announced in the cast with the rest to be named later.
A 30 week run starting on 11th August 2020.

I saw the trailer for The Gentlemen a few weeks ago at the cinema and was instantly hooked on it. It certainly appears Guy Ritchie could be back to his best with a truly outstanding cast!
The next film from Pixar is Soul and certainly looks like it has the potential to another tearjerker. It is due for release in the UK in June but for now just enjoy this first trailer also known as a teaser!
