Making the very successful TV Series, ‘Downton Abbey,’ into a film was always going to be problematic. Most of the big dramatic storylines have been told, and we left the Abbey’s family, the Crawley’s, on the small screen, with the 1920’s well underway, and devoid of the sort of world crisis that would help any big story along. So, what was there left to warrant a big screen story? Quite a lot as it turns out. Thanks to the able screenwriting talents of Julian Fellowes, and the wonderf...

A true one off from a very wide imagination… Coming from the mind of writer/director, Simon Cox, INVASION PLANET EARTH, is one of those films that is a true original. It was also made over 17 years, which by anyone’s standards is a long production line!  However, the film is set very much in the here and now, but of course, the question does arise, ‘how much’ of it dates from 17 years ago? The lead actors do not appear to have aged, and the story, like all cool Sci-Fi seems ve...
