Jingled all the way
An alternate take on the classic Christmas movie "Jingle all the way" throws two neighbours who are on opposite sides of the same coin, one who wants to be friends and the other a little scrooge-esque who doesn't.

It's almost Christmas, a little girl wants the the most sought after pink pony toy around and dad refused to pay the Instore price and his neighbour knows where to get one.
This revelation leads the unlikely duo on an going on an oddball journey - thieves, low speed car chase and a hobo santa are all part of a day's work...

Starring Stephen Merchant & Asim Chaudhry

Another re-telling of a classic
So I've seen MANY renditions of this wonderful Charles Dickins story, this one is one i actually really like. It doesn't deviate from the original story, although yes it is quite darker than other tellings. I don't see that as a negative though, it's a dark story it doesn't need to be lightened to shield the darkness of a classic.
When you see Jim Carrey is Ebenezer Scrooge you do question, Hmm, is that really the right person to play this iconic character? The answer is yes. Jim is usually typecast as the funny man but in this he's cast very well. I also like that it's digital 3D which i think is the first time A Christmas Carol has been done in such a way.

I've never heard of this Joseph Merceon until I came across this book in a bookshop and it turned out to be a very enjoyable and interesting read 

Joseph Merceon was born above a pawnbrokers in Brick Lane London in the year 1764. In the insuring years he would rise to control the whole of Bethnal Green through intimidation bribery,fraud and without a single feeling of compassion for others including his own family. I can honestly say I find Joseph Merceon to be a truly rotten individual and makes Scrooge like a pussycat. 

The book is clearly written and you can tell that the life Joseph Merceon has been thoroughly researched by the author. The book is very informative and would it be of great interest to anybody interested in the history of London overall I'd say definitely a five star read.
