You Have Been Watching…I Know Where I’m Going
Michael Powell and Emeric Pressburger made some of the greatest films of all time such as The Red Shoes, A Matter of Life and Death and Black Narcissus. They were known for marrying often heartbreaking stories with ground-breaking visual flourishes which stay with audiences long after they have finished viewing.

As it’s that time of year when every man and his dog is drawing up their end of year album lists, I thought I’d ask some of the bands that have done interviews for us this year as part of Scots Way-Hay, to tell me about their favourite albums of 2010.

My Tiny Robots and Randolph’s Leap EPs Reviewed
I have mentioned often enough how much I like EPs, not least for their lack of what I suppose Americans might call a Seventh Inning Stretch – that weary feeling you get about two thirds to three quarters of the way through an album, where your attention starts to wane and you wander off to […]

You Have Been Watching (TV Special) … Brond
Broxburn born Michael Caton-Jones has become one of Scotland’s most successful imports to Hollywood. His directorial CV includes the highs of Doc Hollywood and Scandal and the spectacular low that is Basic Instinct 2 (starring Stan Collymore!).
