American Chopper - The Series - Black Widow Bike (DVD)

American Chopper- Bikes at their best.

Advantages: Reality t.v at it's best. Watch the creation of custom bikes.
Disadvantages: If you dont like motorbikes it's not for you.

Ive always loved motorbikes (I know I dont look the type) despite the fact Ive never been on one and certainly wouldnt be brave enough to learn to ride, so when I stumbled on the American Chopper series on the discovery channel I was immediately hooked, I think the combination of the amazing creativity and design of the bikes combined with the sometimes hilarious warring between the family has kept me addicted to the show. However since moving into my own home and being unable to afford the luxuries of sky tv I am limited to watching the series on dvd (I do have the first set in the series and will review it as soon as I can find it!) The series is set at Orange County Choppers, owned by Paul Teutal Senior, a motorcycle company specialising in Chopper motorcycles and custom designs. We follow the crew which includes Paul Sr, his ...

Oh what tangled webs some weave - The Black Widow

Advantages: Excellent acting and suspence.
Disadvantages: Check for sub-title availablity. The end of the story lets it down.

Black Widow (after the spider) was a film that fit perfectly into the suspense/crime/thriller genre, released in 1987 and starring Theresa Russell (appearances on Law and Order and American Heiress) as the Spider and Debra Winger (An Officer and a Gentleman, Leap of Faith) as the federal agent from the Justice Department who is on her tail. The cast also included other notable actors such as Dennis Hopper and Terry O'Quinn. The original film was 102 minutes long but was edited to 97 minutes for the DVD, which is a no frills affair but with the amount of plot going on in this story, a few re-runs might be needed to understand everything and spot things that were easily missed before. The classification is 15 but for parents it might be more suitable for 16 if not 18, especially since it's usually shown long after the watershed ...

Black Widow - Jessie Keane

Advantages: She is much better than Martina Cole
Disadvantages: It had to end

Black Widow - Jessie Keane This is my first Jessie Keane read and it certainly won't be my last. Black widow is the second book in a trilogy, but it can easily be read as a standalone as the reader is told briefly of the history between characters. Black Widow is based around Annie Carter wife of Max, the head of the Carter Clan. Annie, Max and there 4 year old daughter Layla are living in 1970s Majorca when there is a hit on them, leaving Annie alone at the house and Max and Layla gone. In a fight to save her family Annie travels to London to rescue them anyway she can. This was a well written book with twists and turns at every corner, it will certainly keep you entertained. You see different sides of Annie, the soft and vulnerable to the strong. You see what she goes through as a mother and Head ...
