Nearly two months after Doctor Who disappeared from TV until Christmas, a new Adventure Game appears! With no other Who product of late, at least until Sarah Jane Adventures starts back up in autumn, this prospect excited me a little. The last two were decent, after all, and it’s always pleasant to … [Read more...]
Rowenta Air Force: Dork Review
I have a long-term hatred for cleaning the house. As much as I envy those people with pristine, pet hair-free homes, I'd rather spend my Sunday afternoons on the sofa watching a boxset then fluttering around the place with Mr Sheen. Sadly, cleaning is a vital chore for those that don't yearn to be a … [Read more...]
The A-Team: Dork Review
The summer cinema season tends to be chock-full of flashy, mindless showpieces with lots of explosions and a hefty dollop of cheesy white-toothed grins. This summer’s reboot of The A-Team certainly fits the bill. If you tuned-in to The A-Team on TV back in the ‘80s, you’ll no doubt have fond … [Read more...]
Scott Pilgrim – The Comics: Dork Review
Scott Pilgrim, the Canadian-manga series by Bryan Lee O’Malley, has been the independent comics success story of recent years. From the first volume in 2004, momentum has steadily built until the sixth and last book in the series was released to an eager public last week. Midnight openings, huge … [Read more...]
iPulse Smooth Skin: Dork Review
Hair removal. Tedious, time-consuming and occasionally painful. You'd think this would be something evolution would have sorted out for us ladies. I've tried most of the methods out there for defuzzing. A brief dalliance with waxing, epilating and threading tested my (very low) pain threshold to … [Read more...]
Inception: Dork Review
There are enough positive reviews of Inception on the internet for me to wallpaper my house, without having to re-use a single one. By the time I finally saw this universally acclaimed modern classic, I somewhat wanted to hate it. I thought it might make this post more interesting for the reader, … [Read more...]
The Shakeweight: Dork Review
A couple of months ago, a video did the rounds of a brand new piece of workout equipment that promised to eradicate bingo wings and have people queuing up for a ticket to the gun show. I watched the promotional video. About five times. What can be so interesting about a glorified dumbell, I hear … [Read more...]
Doctor Who Adventure Games: Blood Of The Cybermen review
It feels like the BBC have read the reviews of their maiden voyage in the field of Doctor Who Adventures Games. Many of them, including our own, said that it was a good outing, nice presentation, but an over-emphasis on stealth and sneaking. I’m not arrogant enough to believe our mewling was … [Read more...]
Tomy Digital Plus Baby Monitor — Review
As I write this, my infant is upstairs screaming her head off while her dad sings a made-up nursery rhyme to the tune of Epona's song from Zelda. And thanks to the Tomy Digital Plus Baby Monitor I can hear it all perfectly. Tomy spent a long time researching and developing this baby monitor. … [Read more...]
Doctor Who: The Big Bang review
After blowing up the TARDIS and destroying the entire universe last week, the scene was set for one of those “Oh my God big stuff happens!” finales that Doctor Who has often presented in recent years. Oh, and Amy’s dead, and the man himself is locked inside an inescapable Rubik’s Cube. So it’s … [Read more...]
