Instant movie review

"Love, Actually"… why would we go to see this rather than "Return of the King"? Well, because I had Gold Class tickets that had to be used up before the end of the year and ROTK was booked out for the next fortnight. Anyway, it was not very deep, not heavy (apart from the scene in the mental hospital) and good fun, plenty of laughs and familiar actor-faces.

• The spoof single in the movie has actually got to number 26 in the real British singles charts (now at number 37)

By the way, whoever designed the Gold Class seats so that when you reach down for the footrest handle you may get the (hot) light instead… well, not ideal, is it. Or maybe it’s just me.
