Liverpool Sound and Vision Rating 8.5/10
It is not until we lose our sense of self determination, our sense of objectivity and the gaining of certainty in troubled times that we understand that There Must Be More To Life Than This, the illusion we have allowed ourselves to walk into, blindfolded and with the promise of greater things, but without ever seeing those vague spoken promises come to anything but dust today and jam forever in the years to come.

Paul Walker just seems to instinctively understand how love, honour and the sense of the unrequited fit neatly into everyday life, but like the spirit that continues to break and lift hearts with a resonating touch of humanity that resides in Lionel Richie, so too does Paul Walker find the common touch that is so elusive as with matters of the heart, the compassion which is not sneered at, the beauty in the refined, delicate voice which both soothes and woos with equal discerning measure.

The core of a good story is a truth that refuses to be passed over, ignored, or shunned by a society that sees only the value in what they can acquire and not what they can achieve.
A Storyteller worth their salt understands that, and by which ever means they convey their message of hope, reason or cautioning response to an existential threat, the way they show the world their truth is not just to be played out by the listener or watcher in the wings, it is to be retold, narrated, perhaps built upon, enlarged and given that extra depth to which the narrator and bard, the visual interpreter can seize upon and smile.

Every pop culture phenomenon will eventually find its way to the big screen, as sure as the sun will rise, so eventually a team of creatives will meet with a series of money men and hammer out a story that appeals to the fan base and which will suck new life into the smoking corporate machine.
Surrounded upon all sides
by a mountain of inspiration
I could ever wish for,
and yet here I sit behind
a lock down home, scared
to take a peek, occasionally
being brave to see what’s happening,
the peep hole giving a glimpse of
what is normal.
Normal, nothing
had better be considered
as normal again, not by their standards,
not in our lifetime, not in the next,
because all is out of control,

Depending on your age and just how much the weekly music chart meant to you in your formative years, there will always come along a song that hits you that you know instinctively would have achieved the coveted number one spot with ease. No matter the genre, it only required the right voice, the symbolism of its tune and the belief to see it soar to the very top.
Liverpool Sound and Vision Rating 9/10
All points North in the end, and whilst the South has its own history, its own particular take on the songs that have driven the British soul, it is arguably to the Northern Shores & Stories that more than often find a way to describe a range of people to whom have been at times neglected by those to whom call the other half of the land, theirs.

What started out as cult viewing, a chance taken on something entirely new, has become, in its own way, one of the most quoted, highly anticipated and arguably funniest comedies to have made it to television. The perfect blend is hard to attain, even harder to keep together but like Only Fools and Horses and Blackadder before it, has come to define the way an audience can keep a programme going beyond what seems its one and only joke and become part of the national psyche, identifying with the four valiant jokers in the pack and making Red Dwarf what it is today, a national treasure to which there is no comparison.
