Yesterday we went to see The Lion King CGI remake by Jon Favreau and it was just brilliant. It brought back great memories from the Disney’s 1994 animated musical. The film was exactly what I was looking forward to, if not more. Moviegoers should see The Lion King in IMAX to enjoy the full richness of the film’s sound and imagery. Jon Favreau directed the film with the intent of creating…

Situated amidst the London West End theatres is The Delaunay, a stunning all day cafĂ© and restaurant which can be found just off the Aldwych. One of the reasons to visit The Delaunay is their afternoon tea which is served seven days a week between 3 and 6pm.Â
Once you enter the main building, there is a very nice receptionist that welcomes you and leads you to your table. The café…
Last weekend I was invited to the London Shuffle Club in Shoreditch for what I can describe as an amazing time and event. Upon arrival I was greeted by two lovely staff members who led me inside the venue to sit at a table to enjoy two full hours of blissful pizza brunch & Prosecco. During this time I also had a chance to learn about and have a go at shuffleboard, a game of which I knew nothing…
The Hayward Gallery’s new exhibition Space Shifters is open from today until the 6th January 2019 and is an absolute MUST visit.

A Bigger Splash is released on the 12th February 2016. It is directed by Luca Guadagnino, and stars Dakota Johnson, Ralph Fiennes, Matthias Schoenaerts and Tilda Swinton. It is the updated remake of La Piscine, a psychosexual drama by Jacques Deray from 1969, starring legends Alain Delon, Romy Schneider, Jane Birkin and Maurice Ronet. In many ways it does not live up to the original film despite…
