Didn’t Fear Death
The sudden and tragic death of Rik Mayall has been a loss for generations of comedy fans and has robbed the world of one its most irreplaceable humans. Thankfully, the morbidly ironic fact that Don’t Fear Death is now one of his last projects hasn’t been lost. It’s nice of people to think that this would have been a…

Scourge of the Smirk
There’s been enough chat about the creep of Californian Animation Smirk Disease, but each new film that comes out of the system winds me up that little bit more. It’s only a matter of time before it contaminates unwitting British intellectual property.
