Book choice: Liseyâs Story by Stephen King
Author and musician Luke Settle with his favourite book - Lisey s Story by Stephen King.
âThe reason why this book stood out against any other that I have read is because it felt as though the author was speaking directly to me from every single page. This wasnât just a book that was incredibly well written, nor did it just tell a magical story.it formed a connection through chapters of relatable emotions trigged from buried memories.â

In a powerful alliance, Paris-based premium kids content producer Cottonwood Media, German public broadcaster ZDF and its co-pro and distribution arm ZDF Enterprises, HBO Max and Brazil’s Globo are teaming to produce “Theodosia,” a big new live action kids adventure series targeting family audiences.
No budget is given for the 26-part half hour series. Its combination, however, of elements which make for high-end entertainment – period costume, action and foreseeable heavy VXF – suggest this is another big play by two of Europe’s champions of ambitious live-action kids shows.

Diary of a busy practitioner, juggling work and family somewhere in England
In 1813 we had the Bingley sisters. In 1815 we had Mrs Elton. In 1938 we had Snow White’s wicked stepmother. In 1950 we had the ugly sisters. Then we had Ethel in the Worst Witch, Rizzo in Grease, the shopkeepers in Pretty Woman, Natasha in Bridget Jones’ Diary, Vivienne Kensington in Legally Blonde, Sharpay in High School Musical, and if I walked in my living room now I would be fairly sure one of my daughters would be watching a TV programme or film in which a mean girl is trying to bring down our heroine.
