I'm pretty certain that is not true.

Don't worry about that Star Wars nonsense. It was Room, and it was a stunner of a film. Really, go and see it when it comes out next year. Reviewed on Film (at 24 mins) much better than I can.

Oooh, I forgot about this! Album of the year Everything Everything - Get to Heaven. I should imagine Everything Everything are rather pissed with how this year has gone; they've made a pretty much perfect album which deserved to spawn a string of massive hits, but no one seemed to notice with not one single track charting in the top 40. The worlds gone mad. Go buy it. Song of the year Although I do love it, it's not necessarily my favorite song, but is one that I think will always bring me back to this moment in time. Major Laser - Lean On. Live Show of the year Basement Jaxx lived up to my ridiculously high expectations, I've never seen dance music done better live at any show or on any recording. Seen at the relatively small Brownstock outdoor festival, where you get so much more energy than some echoing 02 hanger. Film of the year Inside Out, without a shadow of a doubt. TV Show of the year The current series of Toast of London is sublime absurd fun. One episode left of this series, you can still catch up now. I suggest you do. Personal Moment of the year Passing my sergeants exams and getting a 'temporary' promotion to that rank. Yay! Low Point of the year Crashing my brand new (3,000 miles) police car, running out of talent on a damp roundabout turning my 4 wheeled car into a three wheeled one at quite a speed. Much embarrassment!

It doesn't need saying any more than it has been that anything even approaching hypnotism is just a no. But what wouldn't surprise me would be some trick or 'showmanship' to give the illusion of an alteration of the mind or senses which could be falsely attributed to a form of hypnotism or mind control.

Day 2 and you've managed something so bad it offends me. Well done! I remember B*Witches existing, but not this track. Thankfully.

Awww, shucks. Cheers all! Damn you, JoshC!

Spot on! About time we saw some sort of update I think. Anyone got a drone?! Dark ride construction topics are dull.

I know I bang on about it every time, but screen unseen again tonight. I love this thing, seen a few films I'd never have bothered with an really enjoyed most of then, and a couple I'd have gone to anyway which I've got to see a month early. Win win! So tonight I'm hoping for (but not expecting!) hateful 8. Think it might be Room. I've avoided clues this time, so no idea. Much excitement again!

SECRET SUNDAY- BONUS TRACK Local band to me, from the small town I live in, been lucky enough to see them a few times because of this. Think they might be a big thing some time soon, because they are great and also they just featured in the BBC's 6 music best albums of 2015. These things always seem to give bands a big leg up. The Milk. Next up, Matt Creek...

Well I've been rubbish at this, haven't I? Work has been a real bitch this week. THUMPING THURSDAY - dance dance dance. Always loved this, something this exciting is so rarely heard in today's club blandness. Would make an amazing dark ride theme in my eyes too. Jay Dee - Plastic Dreams. FILM FRIDAY - your favorite movie soundtrack. Obviously the greatest of them all will always be Bowie's Labyrinth soundtrack, but I used that last time. Taken as a whole movie soundtrack Pulp Fiction is hard to beat. But as a single track, used at just the right moment, the ending of Leon just gets me. The film, and this track, are just about perfect. Sting - Shape Of My Heart. SUPER SATURDAY - your hottest record in the world right now It's not new, but it's current in that it's the theme to the best thing on TV at the moment, Toast of London. I'm obsessed with it, the album it's from Witchazel is worth a listen too. Matt Berry is my mancrush, and this is Take My Hand So take my hand We’ll disappear to above the sun, to far from here Though I don’t know you and you don’t know me I just had to talk to you, you see The arrogance, a foolish move If you take a risk, your odds improve See, you don’t know me and I don’t know you I’m not weird or queer, my aim is true Everybody I know these days is boring me Or ignoring me But not you So take my hand We’ll disappear to above the sun, to far from here Though I don’t know you and you don’t know me I just had to talk to you, you see So say you’ll come, please don’t go You could be the one for all I know Well, I don’t know you, though I’d sure like to I can see the light, it looks like you So take my hand

Ohhh, and a heat source underground. During routine excavations...

I can imagine a 4d winged suiting that name, with the sort of forces something like X2 puts you through. And I mean proper guided 4d, not those stupid Zacspin things that flop about of their own accord.

It certainly existed, I thought it was listed and therefore couldn't be removed? If they had touched it we'd surely have seen planning? I think it's probably still there, but where its surroundings have changed so much we're not looking in the right place.

WHATEVER WEDNESDAY - anything goes A month or so ago there there was a small amount of news reports about the death of a singer whose name was familiar to me, but I couldn't place it straight away. Diane Charlemagne, it turned out, was the singe of Urban Cookie Collective who made some fine dance pop music in the 90's, and I'm sure I half remember her from articles in Smash Hits or some such magazine that us kids used to read before the internet happened. What I didn't realise before I read about her untimely death was that she is also the singer on one of the finest tracks ever produced, delivering this beautiful beautiful vocal, she is clearly a great talent lost. Best listened to as loud as you can in the dark, it's Goldie's Inner City Life ...

Well I didn't finish until 2AM in the end, and I'm going back in in a mo. To quote some cheese, could everyone stop gettin' shot shot shot... So a day late already. CHEESY TUESDAY - Something you love, but maybe you shouldn't. When this came out it was a legitimately good floor filling dance track, but has been tainted buy what they followed it up with. Which was basically the same track over and over with different words on. No matter, still sounds good on a sweaty holiday dancefloor, as do their later (and lesser) tracks. It's the Venga Boys! (no idea what this Oriental fella is doing on this vid? Never heard him on it before, ignore him!)

...and selling it before it's knackered is a continuation of a perfect way to run one. Wise move.

Great to see a bit of interest, keep the requests coming here or PM and I'll keep updating schedule. Getting in just before midnight, not the greatest time for me to start this as I'm unlikely to finish before 22.:00 hrs any day this week. Sucks to be me. MELLOW MONDAY - Some thing you like to relax to. I love a bit of chill out music, really believe that listening to something can completely change your mood and outlook. Listening to the right thing at the right time can be genuinely therapeutic. Generally what feels right for me changes with the seasons, in the summer I like light 'natural' sounding music, like Bebel Gilberto or Jamiroquai, or the amazing Badly Drawn Boy. Whereas in the darker winter days I prefer more electronic chill music, like Nighmares On Wax, The Orb or Lemon Jelly, all of which deserve a lot more listening to than those single tracks. But the best of the best, to chill me out any time, is the beautiful Sebastian Tellier's La Ritournele. Brings a tear to my eye if it catches me at the right time, for all the right reasons.

Unless you've just been having not been told it was down before hand. Then you'll be a little bit pissed off instead.

Because that's never happened before, in the twisted name of religion?

New for 2016 - Park-Wide Improvements
pluk replied to MarkC's topic in Chessington World of Adventures
A few updates around the park from the lovely Chessington Buzz people... Market square seating and speakers Repainted Wagamama's hut And the all exciting and for some reason controversial Vampire work Things are looking rather good! -
Well this went quite well last year, closed season dullness is here so lets go again, shall we? Wave your hands in the air like you just don't care... ... it's time to be TPMs resident DJ! For a bit of fun, to share some music you love and maybe some things about yourself, take your turn behind the wheels of steel and spin the choooons of your choice for one week only. During your week you post a track a day under the following all new for 2015 categories: MELLOW MONDAY - Some thing you like to relax to. Ease the stress of the start of the week with something that helps you chill. CHEESY TUESDAY - Something you love, but maybe you shouldn't. We've all got a few. WHATEVER WEDNESDAY - anything goes. Something special to you, for whatever reason you fancy. THUMPING THURSDAY - dance dance dance. Thursday is the new Friday, what gets your party started? FILM FRIDAY - your favorite movie soundtrack. Popcorn and to tunes. SUPER SATURDAY - your hottest record in the world right now. Ending on a high, hopefully! SECRET SUNDAY- BONUS TRACK. Something you know and love, but it seems no-one else does. Maybe a local or unsigned band, or a lesser known track from a more mainstream artist. I imagine not everyone will have something for this, so skip it if it's not for you. Feel free to mock or share the love for that weeks DJ as the week goes on, (in fact, please do! Lets liven it up. People got away with some shocking tracks last time with insufficient repercussions!) but I ask you only post music on your week. I'll go first as of next Monday, if you'd like to have a go comment here or PM me (might be an idea to mention if you are not around in any time soon for me to avoid) and I'll allocate you a week.
