We finally watched "The Artist " last night. Quite different, but really enjoyed it. Winner of Seven Baftas including Best Film and 5 Oscars including Best picture. The dog was the star, he had tricks that we've yet to see from Pudsey.

Started watching the series "Life Begins" with Alexander Armstrong Season 1. Some funny stuff there. Also "Death In Paradise" and "D.I. Banks".

"Turn The Key Softly" last night with a very young Joan Collins, Yvonne Mitchell and one of my favorites, Kathleen Harrison, about 3 women who get out of prison on the same day. Good little film.

Working my way through the Chicago Hope series and awaiting the future seasons as they are released.
I've also been given Skyfall to watch from my neighbour so I look forward to that.

Watched the glorious Jukebox Saturday Night again tonight
..............to think all these singers made hardly any money during their singing career's, most just got paid a standard "recording fee" when recording all those great standards.

Skyfall - it was ok but the dialogue was often unclear. Same with CSI NY last night, I turned it off as the so called "background" music was so damn annoying!!!

Trouble with CSI and some of those shows are the background music as you say Karl. I think they are trying to be attractive and appealing to the younger crowd (OMG did I just say that) and made to be stylized like a music video. Young, trending and hip, like the old Miami Vice concept. I think that just detracts from the story and acting, and yes they should turn the music down.

Watched Happy Is The Bride last night, a 1958 comedy starring Ian Carmichael, Janette Scott and Cecil Parker. Hadn't seen this before, a comedy about a couple who are getting married and their family trying to take over the arrangements. A lot of familiar faces in the cast including Terry Thomas, Joyce Grenfell and Irene Handl.

Watched PBS Music dvd "Magic Moments" again last night, with Patti Page, Gogi Grant, The Four Aces and many more great artists of the 50's. Brilliant.

Playing for Keeps with Gerrard Butler and Jessica Biel. Tonight I think I'll watch the kids movie "Wreck It Ralph" and this weekend can't wait to see "OZ - The Great And Powerful".

Have just started to watch Jukebox Saturday Night 2 .......the DVD also contains a Big Band New Years Eve Special from 1981 ...................Jukebox Saturday Night 2 see song's performed by Patti Page (who presents the show), Teresa Brewer, Inkspots, Fran Warren, Margaret Whiting, Maguire Sisters and Julius La Rosa ...............the show is very good
............Patti Page mingles wonderfully with the audience during her medley of hit's
.......................Big Band New years Eve Special from 1981 see's Tex Beneke (ex Glenn Miller vocalist) perform with his band at the Hollywood Palladium
.............and a big surprise for me is that he is joined by Bob Eberly and Helen O'Connell during the show singing duets and songs individually
........................it took me over two years to start watching Jukebox 1 and 2 but I love them
..................thank you so much John
