The Meg (2018) Review
When an attack is made on a submarine which has dived deep into the ocean. Only one man can save them, that being Jonas. I guess it helps that his ex-wife Lori is one of the people trapped!

Everyone is really going to wish he had been wrong when an opening is left and it is free to attack them and any other people in the water.

Mel Brooks’ Young Frankenstein – Original London Cast Recording
On Friday morning something truly fantastic happened and the Young Frankenstein London Cast Recording was available on iTunes and I therefore bought it straight away. It had felt like a long wait when this was all first mentioned months ago and we were told it would be out in July, but throughout July and no sign of the recording it looked as though it would just randomly appear one day. Which is exactly what ended up happening!

Pretty Woman the Musical, has anyone out there who reads my blog seen it yet?
