*Competition ends 17th November 2013* It’s time to meet a new generation of students as life at McKinley High continues with Glee: Season 4, out on DVD and Blu-Ray now…

SO IRISH

One of those “Isn’t he the one from…” actors, Brendan Gleeson has been consistently delivering great performances for nearly twenty years, without ever really getting major recognition outside of industry circles. Perhaps with his current release The Guard getting glowing reviews, and with his directorial debut At Swim-Two-Birds in pre-production, he’ll finally be rooted in the public consciousness. Lord knows he deserves it.

No, no, NO! This cannot be happening. Why can’t they just leave The Rocky Horror Picture Show ALONE? And why in the name of all things good would they let Glee creator, Ryan Murphy get his horrible eating, praying and loving mitts on it? Lock him in a Coca Cola freezer, I say.

Before we all burst into tears (of joy or despair, depending on your love of sparkles), we have to tell you that a Glee film is not definitely in the making, only that certain facts about the Glee cast’s contracts have come to light. It turns out that those sneaky critters at Fox (cunning as a?) thought very carefully about this franchise before they got their cast to sign on the dotted line, as they are all locked in for three feature films if the company so wishes.

Does the idea of an a cappella “Don’t Stop Believing” turn your stomach, or fill it with butterflies? Your answer to this digestive conundrum will probably reveal your attitude to Glee; the US’s latest TV phenomenon.

Also like a dwarf, it carries quite a lot of extra flab around the middle, but its unassailable charisma and magnificent facial hair…

Britain’s famously drug-addled press has gone mental at the recent suggestion that Nigella Lawson may have developed a bit of a taste for Charlie over the last few years; apparently the fact that this charge is being levelled at her by her insane ex-husband / some ex-employees who she’s suing isn’t at all relevant. Go Daily Mail! We really like Nigella and we couldn’t care less what she puts in her face, so here’s some perspective.

On Sunday, Best For Film was lucky enough to be invited along to the British Academy Scotland Awards 2013 – the Scottish BAFTAs – at Glasgow’s swanky Radisson Blu hotel. Hosted by Edith Bowman, and attracting such great Scots as Brian Cox, Kate Dickie and Gary Tank Commander, the ceremony aimed to spotlight and celebrate an incredibly strong year for Scottish cinema.

Liam Neeson is back in action man-mode for Non-Stop, a tense and fun thriller set almost entirely onboard a plane during a transatlantic flight. Neeson plays boozy air marshal Bill Marks, who springs into action when an unknown criminal threatens to kill a passenger on the flight every twenty minutes until a ridiculous sum of…
