A Short History of Nearly Everything is Bill Bryson’s quest to find out everything that has happened from the Big Bang to the rise of civilization – how we got from there being nothing at all to here being us. ; ; His challenge is to take subjects that normally bore the pants off most of us and see if there isn’t some way to render them comprehensible to people who have never thought they could be interested in science. It’s not so much about what we know as about how we know what we know. How do we know what is in the centre of the Earth or what a black hole is or where the continents were 600 million years ago? How did anyone ever figure these things out? ; ; On his travels through time and space Bill Bryson takes us with him on the ultimate eye-opening journey and reveals the world in a way most of us have never seen it before.

Noir ![]()
Humphrey Bogart and Lauren Bacall made screen history together more than once, but they were never more popular than in this 1946 adaptation of Raymond Chandler’s novel, directed by Howard Hawks (To Have and Have Not). Bogart plays private eye Philip Marlowe, who is hired by a wealthy socialite (Bacall) to look into troubles stirred up by her wild, young sister (Martha Vickers). Legendarily complicated (so much so that even Chandler had trouble following the plot), the film is nonetheless hugely entertaining and atmospheric, an electrifying plunge into the exotica of detective fiction. William Faulkner wrote the screenplay. –Tom Keogh

Isn’t it infuriating when the remote control goes missing? Well that is much less likely to happen with the Big Button Remote Control – it is nearly a foot long! It seems that manufacturers are competing to make the smallest most delicate remotes possible. They may look chic and elegant, but it results in a piece of plastic and metal that is tricky to use unless you have the eyesight of an 8 year old and the dexterity of a brain surgeon. If you have a fantastic home cinema set up, with a big screen, DVD player, and surround sound, seeing what all those fiddly buttons do can be next to impossible in the cinematic gloom.
Price : £ 17.95
