Amazing story about an owner of the hotel and his many adventures, poured through time as the story gets told by many characters through the years.

Very interesting storytelling, something I haven't encountered before, but loved it. If you know any movies that follow the same concept, I would love your suggestions.

We enter the life of a hotel management, a hotel that has a life of its own. We follow the owner and the lobby boy, as they try to solve a mystery regarding a rich and powerful woman, that gets murdered but has an interesting will.

These people embark on an adventure for truth, in times where everything seems to be against them.

I loved the cameos from so many popular actors, and also loved the dry humour. A very beautiful, intriguing and unique movie.

Effectively a (roughly) 1.5 hour extended edition of one of the skits from the TV show, this - I feel - suffers a bit from the absence of the core cast from that series, although it does try to make up for it with a virtual plethora of famous faces from British TV: off the top of my head including Alexander Armstrong (from Pointless), Warwick Davis, Derek Jacob, Nick Frost and Lee Mack.

This is set in and around the time of Boudiccea's rebellion against Rome, and is clearly aimed (not surprisingly!) at the younger audience, leaving aside the more gory aspects of the time and introducing (just like the TV show) several song and dance numbers throughout its running - a running time that could have been cut, somewhat, if it wasn't so enamoured of toilet humour!

Welcome back to the world of the shifters of Kadenburg. This story continues to delight as you revisit old characters and welcome in new ones. The bears of Kadenburg come to realise that their 'little' problem with Breslin is actually larger than at first thought. The twists and turns that will take you through the story keep it fresh and exciting. There is a bit of everything in this book - humour, new romance, old romance, mystery, intrigue, and action. It really does have it all.

If you are a fan of shifter books then I can highly recommend this series. Just one thing though, beware the cliffhanger ending!
