Time Travel is Dangerous centers around friends Ruth and Megan who run a vintage shop in Muswell Hill. When they stumble across a time machine, it occurs to them that stock is much cheaper if they ‘borrow’ from the past – well, it’s free. They don’t want to change history, or rob banks, they just want to find a nice Victorian lamp or an authentic 80s bum bag without getting sucked into the hellish time-space vortex that is “the Unreason”. The thing is, Time Travel Is Dangerous.

The movie stars Johnny Vegas, Jane Horrocks (Absolutely Fabulous), Sophie Thompson, Mark Heap, Brian Bovell, Tony Way, Guy Henry, Tom Lenk (Buffy the Vampire Slayer), Laura Aikman, Kiell Smith-Bynoe and is narrated by Stephen Fry.

Real-life vintage shop owners Ruth Syratt and Megan Stevenson raid the past for sellable trinkets in this charmingly funny, quintessentially British comedy

Here is a very silly and very likable British mockumentary, one that – like Ruth and Megan, the two real-life Muswell Hill vintage-shop mavens at its centre – lovingly mixes and matches multifarious styles. Director and co-writer Chris Reading adopts a little The Office deadpan, some Shaun of the Dead bathos, a heap of Terry Gilliam, and even shoplifts a shot from Wes Anderson. If the resulting low-budget assemblage still bears these nametags and has the odd stray thread showing, it also has a persistent charm of its own.

The ChaChaCha vintage emporium (which really exists) is limping along until owners Ruth (Ruth Syratt) and Megan (Megan Stevenson) stumble on a time machine in the form of a souped-up bumper car – and thus an infinite supply of merchandise from whichever epoch they desire.

As films like The Terminator, The Time Machine, Looper, Edge of Tomorrow, Back to the Future 2 and Hot Tub Time Machine 2 have proven, going backwards and forwards across history or into the far future can be perilous to both personal and universal health. But it has taken until now for a movie to say it out loud, and that movie is the brilliant British comedy Sci-Fi usurpingly titled Time Travel is Dangerous.

The set up is simple enough and starts when two friends Ruth and Megan find a time travel machine by the bins behind their vintage shop in Muswell Hill. The scientific marvel, which is actually a modified dodgem, takes them on jaunts across history where they pilfer anything they can from the bemused locals of the past to sell in their shop. Seemingly onto a great thing the pals are oblivious not only to how the time...

Time Travel Is Dangerous is about to become your new favourite British sci-fi comedy blending mockumentary stylings with surreal, low-budget charm. Directed by Chris Reading and co-written with Anna-Elizabeth and Hillary Shakespeare, the latter two of those names, are no strangers to this reviewer.

Time Travel Is Dangerous stars Ruth Syratt and Megan Stevenson as fictionalized versions of themselves, running a vintage shop in Muswell Hill. The premise is delightfully absurd: the duo stumbles upon a discarded fairground dodgem that just so happens also to be a time machine, which they use to “borrow” historical artefacts to sell in their shop, as time travel movies have told us in the past though this has catastrophic consequences due to...

Writer and director Chris Reading has been specialising in comedy and stylised genre movies for a number of years most notably with his 2016 retro space thriller Somnus and his official A L I E N short film A L I E N: Containment which he made to to coincide with the 40th anniversary of the 1979 classic.

His latest Sci-Fi comedy Time Travel is Dangerous, starring Johnny Vegas, Jane Horrocks, Brian Bovell and Tom Lenk among others as well as narration from Stephen Fry, is set for a cinema release on March 28th with a special gala screening at The Everyman Cinema Musswell Hill the day before.

When Chris isn’t making Sci-Fi films he is ranking and rating them on the Science Fiction Rating System podcast, which he features on alongside Sam Draper and Love Horror’s very own Alex Humphrey.

Time loops, Victorian lamps, and a dangerously unpredictable time machine take centre stage at an exclusive gala screening of Time Travel Is Dangerous at Everyman Muswell Hill on 27th March. The sci-fi comedy, which explores the perils of ‘borrowing’ from history, will be celebrated with a special event featuring a Q&a with the cast and filmmakers, followed by a post-screening drinks reception in the main foyer.

The film follows best friends Ruth and Megan, who run a vintage shop in Muswell Hill. When they stumble upon a time machine, their business takes an unexpected turn as they decide to “source” their stock directly from the past. Rather than using their newfound ability to change history or amass wealth, they simply want to get their hands on the perfect Victorian lamp or an authentic 80s bum bag. However, as they soon discover, tampering with time is a risky game, and The Unreason,...

Everyone has their favorite on-screen Santa. Whether it's Ed Asner's gruff but warm Santa in 2003's Elf or Edmund Gwenn's immortal portrayal in 1947's Miracle on 34th Street, countless actors have donned the red and white suit. But one actor isn't often in that conversation, despite playing the role twice within a three-year span.

That actor is Jim Broadbent, one of the most recognizable British character actors who's lent his jovial sensibility to everything from Bridget Jones's Diary to the Harry Potter films. Broadbent first took a turn as Santa in vocal form in 2011's acclaimed animated adventure Arthur Christmas, before getting a chance to don the white beard three years later in 2014's Get Santa. The film was generally met with good reviews at the time, but has since largely disappeared into the stream of would-be Christmas classics.

Despite being largely overlooked, Get Santa is a...

As if to further cement the comical irony of Coyote vs. Acme being shelved, Warner Bros. Animation is looking to begin pre-production on a new iteration of Tom and Jerry. In an exclusive report from Deadline, Rashida Jones, Will McCormack, and Michael Govier have been set to write the script. The project is set to revive the iconic animated cat and mouse duo, previously attempted in the 2021 live-action hybrid film Tom and Jerry, which also starred Chloë Grace Moretz.

Originally created in the 1940s by animation titans William Hanna and Joseph Barbera at MGM, Tom and Jerry defined so many key aspects of cartoon slapstick humor. Hundreds of Tom and Jerry shorts have been created, with several going on to win Academy Awards for Best Animated Short Film. While there have been many iterations over the decades, several key qualities of Tom and Jerry have remained consistent, the most important...

The Book of Clarence is a religious comedy that draws inspiration from the Bible to explore spirituality. The movie incorporates genuine biblical characters and lore to underscore its themes and moral teachings. The film has contemporary flourishes and portrays a personal journey of redemption, rather than preaching religion.

Written and directed by Jeymes Samuel, The Book of Clarence is a religious comedy that opened to the masses on Jan. 12, 2024. The story follows Clarence (Lakeith Stanfield), a sinful huckster living in A.D. 33 Jerusalem among Jesus Christ and his disciples. To rid himself of mounting debt, Clarence pretends to be the new Messiah sent directly from God and begins manipulating those around him for his own gain and glory. During his quest, Clarence adopts moral tenets and learns to be more benevolent.

Considering the characters, title, and setting, it's easy to wonder if The Book of Clarence is officially based on the bible.

As I’m sure many filmmakers have experienced, pitching stories from the heart can often be an advantage which is exactly the experience Writer/Director Grant Taylor had with his touching comedy drama Ecstasy. When the unexpected opportunity arose to pitch at Cine Circle, he pulled directly from his own experiences with his father’s Parkinson’s diagnosis and the keen memory of a documentary he had watched about the positive effects of the infamous party drug on sufferers. The resulting film – starring British actors Brian Bovell and Nathan Bryon as a father and son on a mission to score – is a richly entertaining short which follows the pair’s near disastrous attempts to give a man an opportunity to dance with his wife at her birthday party. Taylor worked closely with his own father and cast to provide an authentic view of the suffering inherent with Parkinson’s and...

Line of Duty producer World Productions is forging an ITV medical thriller starring Deceit’s Niamh Algar, directed by Boiling Point’s Phillip Barantini and written by former doctor Grace Ofori-Attah.

Malpractice follows Dr Lucinda Edwards (Algar), a smart, battle-hardened doctor whose nightmare shift ends in the death of an opioid overdose victim, Edith Owusu. Despite the support of her medical supervisor, Dr Leo Harris, played by James Purefoy (A Discovery of Witches), Edith’s grieving father Sir Anthony Owusu, played by Brian Bovell (Strike), demands an enquiry into Lucinda’s actions on the fateful night.

Filming has started in Leeds and cast also includes Boiling Point’s Hannah Walters, Helen Behan (The Virtues), Jordan Kouamé (Megalomania), Beth Relph, Lorne MacFadyen, Priyanka Patel, Scott Chambers, Tristan Sturrock and Georgina Rich.

"I have no idea who you are or how I got here." Vertical Ent has released an official trailer for an indie sci-fi film titled Solitary, marking the feature directorial debut of filmmaker Luke Armstrong, who finished this film last year during lockdown. This is another low budget sci-fi film with a cool concept that could turn out bad, or could be pretty good. Solitary is a contained sci-fi film about a man who wakes up inside a room to discover he's a prisoner sent into space to form Earth's first colony, and worse - his cell mate Alana is hell bent on destroying everything. Starring Johnny Sachon and Lottie Tolhurst as the two prisoners, with Michael Condron, Brian Bovell, and Ben Valentine. This kind of even feels like a lockdown film - two people contained in a studio apartment, in space, arguing about what to do when they get out.

Switzerland’s Locarno Film Festival is launching a new industry event focusing on Africa. The Southern Africa-Locarno Industry Academy, hosted in collaboration with the Realness Institute of Africa, will take place online from 26 September to 2 October 2021 and will welcome 10-12 participants from all over the African continent. The project offers a tailored program featuring masterclasses and meetings with internationally established professionals. The aim is to enhance participants’ understanding of the challenges facing the film industry, while allowing them to expand their personal network of contacts and develop their professional skill set. “The Southern Africa-Locarno Industry Academy will allow us to introduce our program for young professionals in this region. Participants will be able to connect with Industry Academy alumni in Latin America, the Middle East, the USA and Europe, joining an international network of future industry players,” said Markus Duffner, the new head of Locarno Pro.

The year is 2044, there is a lot more people on the planet and they are running out of stuff… in this ambitious, sci-fi action film; which IMDb estimates it cost 10,000 pounds to make. I cannot help but appreciate the aspiration of writer, and director, Luke Armstrong. One of the most ambitious effects in Solitary, is the comb over on our heroes’ head. Issac Havelock, the name of our follically challenged hero is a superb sci-fi meta joke. As is calling the computer “Eva.”

Issac wakes up in a capsule, with a lady. Both seem to have committed serious crimes and they are floating in space above the earth. Suddenly there is an explosion, and some level of confusion.

What follows is a slow burn, mystery whodunnit as our “Adam and...

Franco Rosso's Babylon star Brinsley Forde with Ed Bahlman and Dennis Bovell at Bam: "Let's be honest, a film like that had never been done before. We had The Harder They Come, the films from Jamaica, but nothing from the UK." Photo: Anne-Katrin Titze

At the Brooklyn Academy of Music before the Us theatrical première of Babylon at BAMcinématek, Brinsley Forde spoke with me about the cast, which includes Trevor Laird, Brian Bovell, Archie Pool, Victor Romero Evans, Stefan Kalipha, Cosmo Laidlaw, Cynthia Powell, T. Bone Wilson, David N. Haynes, Mark Monero, Karl Howman, and Jah Shaka, and the film "presenting a life that the people who were in the movie, extras and all, were totally aware of."

Franco Rosso's powerful feature, with the camerawork of Chris Menges and a score by Dennis Bovell, takes you upfront into a world of survival that remains relevant today. Brinsley brings...

When I arrived with Ed Bahlman (99 Records) at the Brooklyn Academy of Music for my conversations with Brinsley Forde and Dennis Bovell, two key figures for Franco Rosso's Babylon, co-written with Martin Stellman, produced by Gavrik Losey, and shot by two-time Oscar winner Chris Menges (for Roland Joffé's The Killing Fields and The Mission), Brinsley, Dennis, and Seventy-Seven founder Gabriele Caroti were standing in the lobby. Ed greeted Dennis and they immediately reconnected by sharing memories of The Slits, Viv Albertine's memoir, Chris Blackwell, Adrian Sherwood, Pop Group, Mark Stewart, Public Image Ltd, Bruce Smith, Neneh Cherry, Linton Kwesi Johnson, the Reggae Lounge, and of course, Ari Up and the making of Cut.

When (or if) you think of urban UK film, you may immediately think Noel Clarke. However, while he may be the biggest fish, Clarke isn’t the only one swimming in that pool. Based on the cult novel of the same name by Q (aka Ashanti Power, aka Kwabena Manso), two years ago, Deadmeat won awards on both sides of the pond, Best British Feature at the Bfm Film Festival (London, UK), as well as an Accolade Award for Excellence (Hollywood, Us) and is now due to be released on DVD this week… in the UK, anyway.

Written, directed by and starring Q, Deadmeat is a gritty urban thriller which explores London’s gangland dark underbelly in a chilling tale of revenge killings and betrayal.

While Clarke’s earlier films, KidultHood and AdultHood, gained an avid youth following thanks mainly to their somewhat realistic potrayal of bleak UK inner city life,...

Brian Bovell has revealed that he would like to film another series of Gimme Gimme Gimme. The actor, who played Jez Littlewood in the comedy, admitted that while the original cast are keen to film another series, the decision ultimately lies with Kathy Burke, who directed the show and played lead character Linda La Hughes.

Brian Bovell has revealed that his Hollyoaks axe has come during a "changing" moment in his life. It was reported earlier this year that producers were dismissing several cast members, including Bovell's struggling father Leo Valentine, in a bid to revamp the show. The actor has since admitted that it is the right time for him to leave the show, after a recent personal tragedy made him re-evaluate his life. Speaking at the Inside Soap Awards, he told Digital Spy: "I'll be (more)...

'Hollyoaks' new boss has axed 11 more characters. The Channel 4 soap's series producer Paul Marquess - who has made considerable cast changes since he joined in January 2010 - plans to cull several more characters in the soap, including the entire Valentine family, who will leave when the storyline surrounding the upcoming death of Calvin (Ricky Whittle) ends. As well as the Valentine family - also consisting of father Leo (Brian Bovell), Sasha (Nathalie Emmanuelle) and Lauren (Dominique Jackson) - the TV boss won't extend Kent Riley's contract either, even though he has played student Zak Ramsay for six years. These new changes ..

New Hollyoaks boss Paul Marquess has culled another 11 cast members as part of the Channel 4 soap's mass shakeup, Digital Spy can exclusively reveal. A month after his arrival, Marquess took his axe to Josh, Suzanne and Neville Ashworth - played by Sonny Flood, Suzanne Hall and Jim Millea respectively - and subsequently replaced three of the serial's leading producers in a bid to streamline the creative team. In the coming weeks and months, a further 11 characters will be phased out, bringing the current departure total to 16. Those on the chopping block include the entire Valentine clan - Sasha (Nathalie Emmanuelle), Lauren (Dominique Jackson) and Leo (Brian Bovell) - while Calvin (Ricky Whittle) will be written out towards the end of May at the climax of the ongoing 'Who Shot Calvin?' 'flashforward' storyline. Kent Riley will exit for pastures (more)...
