In the 1980s, there were only 63 Black films by, for, or about Black Americans. But in the 1990s, that number quadrupled, with 220 Black films making their way to cinema screens nationwide. What sparked this “Black New Wave?” Who blazed this path for contemporaries like Ava DuVernay, Kasi Lemmons and Jordan Peele? And how did these films transform American culture as a whole?

It was the deadliest string of shark attacks the world has ever seen. In 2011, sharks in Réunion, a beautiful island, way out in the Indian Ocean started biting people way more than ever before and with lunatic violence. The epidemic forced local surfers, politicians, and business owners into a proxy war with ocean lovers and conservationists worldwide, where long simmering tensions boiled over. Réunion: Shark Attacks in Paradise is the story of what happened on this beautiful island, and t ...

Welcome to My 70s TV Childhood! As the festive season jingles ever closer, it’s time to unwrap memories of Christmas in 1970s Britain.
Ah, the Christmas list. A child’s masterpiece of dreams, overthinking, and perhaps a little greed. Would Father Christmas judge your requests? Would you strike the perfect balance between modesty and ambition? Tools like the Argos catalogue turned our imaginings into meticulously referenced wish lists, complete with page numbers for ease of parental shopping.
And then there were the TV adverts. From the magical Mousetrap to Ronco’s ever-so-slightly odd Record Vacuum, these commercials cast their spell on us. Even if some of the toys didn’t quite live up to the hype (I’m looking at you, Mousetrap), the magic of those 70s adverts still lingers.
In this episode, I’m reminiscing about the best Christmas presents of my childhood: Action Man’s daring missions, the endless adventures of my Hornby Train Set, and the excitement of Subbuteo’s Stadium Edition. These weren’t just toys; they were moments of pure joy that lit up Christmas mornings.
What about you? Did your list include toys inspired by TV adverts? Did the festive build-up fill your home with excitement? Share your memories on the blog or social media—I’d love to hear your stories!
Take care,
Oliver
