A hugely detailed & interesting documentary
McMillions appears to be the biggest documentary to be constantly touted on the new Sky Documentaries channels, and for me their constant advertisement really worked. I've become rather fond of crime documentaries of late, they're much more interesting to watch than the never ending carousel of trash fictional shows. And McMillions is a shining example.

First of all, I knew nothing about this story. Of course I know about the McDonalds monopoly game, I've half heartedly collected pieces over the years, but I never thought there would be such an in depth criminal scam involved. So this documentary series was fascinating to watch and see how they managed to pull this off, it really is criminal genius. You can also tell that this is series is truly professional and well funded, it's not just a half baked hour on one of the lesser channels. This spares no expense in covering every aspect of this crime, including featuring first hand accounts and interviews with virtually everyone involved which is no mean feat. My personal favourite was FBI agent Doug Matthews who was downright hilarious at times. It did make me wonder how much trouble he got into afterwards for some of his rather offhand comments!

Overall this is a well rounded and intriguing documentary series, whose only downside is that even with all of the detail involved, it seems a little overly long at 6 hours.

UNDER THE MISTLE-TOME is the fifth book in the Christmas Falls series. In it, we meet Trey, owner of Seasons Readings, and Trevor, who moved away and has now returned with his daughter. This is First Love/Second Chance at its finest!

First thing I need to say though is Holly-Berry. She is a delight and steals every scene she's in. I loved how her wisdom came across, and how she easily accepted Mr T! I won't tell you how I snorted when I read that! I loved the A-Team when I was younger, so that was just perfect.

As for Trey and Trevor, well, they had a rock-solid friendship to fall back on, so it was no stretch of the imagination that things would go in the direction they did. What I loved was how it was written, with both of them wanting to connect as friends first, and not wanting to mess Miss Holly about.

One came I thought was great was that of Arlo and Emerson. It was so good to see it from a different perspective.

All in all, a great addition to the series, and a story I thoroughly enjoyed and have no hesitation in recommending.
