Glenn Close is terrific and Ted (you thought all he could do was pull a pint) Danson is a real revelation as an actor.

The plot is terrific and leads you on a trial and you are never too sure what is happening until the very end and even then there is a twist.

At first you think this is another standard who done it but it’s a lot more than that.

The characterisation are deep and some of the secondaries are well developed.

I must say I am very impressed, I have enjoyed getting used to using it, I found connecting to the internet a doddle, and have browsed the shop and downloaded some software and games with the free 1000 points. Thank you nintendo for those! My 12 year old granddaughter is showing me the ropes if I get stuck on a game. All in all I think it is a fantastic piece of kit and I hope I get the time to use it more often lol :-). I have read other's reviews (obviously experts :-)) an am picking up some good tips thank you Rating: 5 / 5 As I said I am a DS Virgin so this is the first I have ever had, although I have had a go on my Granddaughters DS Lite.

And that was less predictable than this album. 11 songs that sound very similar to eachother and are no progress on any music that's been made in this genre. Having a 'pretty' face shouldn't mean having a record contract. She should be ashamed of herself. Rating: 1 / 5 2.

When I heard Track 1 (Mr Rock and Roll) I was impressed...maybe the great Kirsty's boots were going to be filled. Then the title track...original theme, but lyrics don't scan and you get the first example of Amy's credo - if you think you've got a good line, why not repeat and repeat and repeat and repeat it, again and again and... After that it just goes downhill. One track, can't remember which, is an almost exact melodic repeat of the title track. All the other songs are poor. The band's not too hot either - at times the drummer is on piece work (paid by the hit). Amy, please take time out, listen to Thea Gilmore, Karine Polwart or Susan Enan and learn about songwriting before the next one. Now, dear readers, if you're looking for a REALLY good British debut album invest in Susan Enan's "Plainsong" - it's everything dear Amy's isn't and Amazon has it at a very good price..

So if you are in an area served by both, you can choose either without having to get new hardware. <br /> <br />This also gives the added bonus of being able to failover to the other connection when the primary one fails. Ideal for a small office that wants a little bit more resiliency on their broadband. <br /> <br />Because home users might be tempted, it is worth noting that in a silent room there is a very faint, but noticeable, high pitched whine from the unit. I have two of these and both do it. The noise isn't something you'd notice in anything other than a completely silent room, like a bedroom. Located in a living/SOHO room, this noise isn't noticeable at all, you have to put your ear to it to hear it, so don't be put off. <br /> <br />All in all a great bit of kit. Not worth the cost if you don't need the extras though, you'd be better off with a cheaper box.

Glenn Close's complexity of character battling with her own demons is just inspired acting. Rose Byrne is seriously beautiful and really draws the watcher in as someone to root for. Ted Danson is bang on form. The first series is a cracker with a storyline that unfolds, using a technique of flashes of what becomes of them in the future, and then continues the storyline, leaving you constantly guessing what's going to happen and who's going to stab who in the back. This really adds to the suspense. The script is also very well paced and written with a lot of twists and turns to keep you on your toes. Series two is not quite as good as series one, a somewhat less gripping storyline, but still has the quality acting etc. Series 3 is supposed to be the best one so far, I'm looking forward to it!

But what I hear is exactly what's wrong with the UK music industry right now. This girl has no business being signed, taking up precious space at a label that could be occupied by an artist that writes less predictable lyrics/chord changes, is a seasoned writer and performer, and is actually giving us something fresh. This is the Avril Lavigne syndrome yet again. I am not implying that there isn't a market for this genre - I'm screaming that WE HAVE ENOUGH of this type of artist. If the industry really wants to know why records aren't selling like they used to, I'll tell them - they aren't selling anything worth buying any more. I blame the labels, not girls like Amy. Thank God artists like Newton Faulkner or The Infadels find a way to claw their way into our line of sight! Rating: 1 / 5 I’m sure she’s a lovely girl.
