Fimbles ? Smelly Jelly
I have to admit that Fimbles are not one of my favourite children?s programmes though my daughter loves it so we decided to go and get her a DVD so when we wanted to watch something on the television, she could watch it happily on the laptop ? which she enjoys doing as its mummy?s laptop and she isn?t meant to touch it!
The Fimbles are Fimbo, Florrie and Baby Pom, who all live in a lovely, colourful place called Fimble Valley. The Fimbles are cuddly hippo like creatures each with lovely colourful ?skins?. Other characters in this programme include a blue tree frog called Rockit and a mole called Roly Mo, a pink bird called Bessie and her chick Ribble. Most of the other characters are essentially large puppets except the chick who is just a great ball of fluff with eyes stuck on it, unmoving in the main ...

I am a Telly Addict. I'll admit it, it's my life. What's more, I love anything that has me in stitches. So what better than to combine two of my favourite things and come up with an amazing show?! Harry Hill's TV Burps is a comedy show, presented by Harry Hill, which airs every on and off on ITV1. He also writes the script for the show too, which must result in him non-stop working. It first started in 2001 when Hill was just 37, and has been a success for the last eight years now. Each episode, Hill takes us on a journey to look back at that weeks' television, and everything comic about it. Often, there is a celebrity guest appearing in the audience-filled studio, to bring the entertainment and laughter to a peak. Now we can enjoy this magic on a DVD!

Review
An admirably non-formulaic drama, which manages to reconcile the opposed British film traditions of contemporary, realistic, low-key character drama with eccentric, flamboyant, Gothic fantasy. It certainly marks out McMorrow as a talent to watch. (Empire, 12/06/2009)
The spiralling plot lines slowly weave together with real dexterity, resulting in a payoff that's as unexpected as it is satisfying. A cracking sci-fi brainteaser. (Little White Lies, 12/06/2009)
This bold and complex British fantasy-drama is an impressive debut for writerdirector Gerald McMorrow. (Sunday Mirror, 12/06/2009)
FRANKLYN has conceptual boldness and visual imagination that set it apart from the pack. (Time Out, 12/06/2009)
Visually striking head-scratcher -- somewhere between BLADE RUNNER and V FOR VENDETTA in its noirish bits (Variety, 19/12/2008)
DVD Description
Directed by music video helmer Gerald McMorrow and taking its lead from tales of dystopian futures such as V FOR VENDETTA and 1984, FRANKLYN's narrative is split between two parallel worlds; contemporary London and the the fantastical Meanwhile City. The film weaves a complex, facinatinating tale in which the fates of four people, living in these seemingly disparate realities, collide. A renegade masked vigilante, a pious father in search of his son, a beautiful but disturbed young art student, and a man broken-hearted after being jilted at the alter; a single bullet will determine the destiny of all.
Ryan Phillippe (THE FLAGS OF OUR FATHERS, WAY OF THE GUN), Eva Green (CASINO ROYALE, THE DREAMERS) and Sam Reilly (CONTROL, 24 HOUR PARTY PEOPLE) co-star in this nightmarish futuristic thriller.
