Shades of Spielbergian energy cast an endearing silhouette over this airy but assured big-screen adaptation of Spain’s much-loved 1950s comic book series ‘Zipi y Zape’; an affectionately adventurous vigour that matches the irresistibly mischievous vim of José Escobar Saliente’s original strip. Sent away to summer school as a punishment for their unruly behaviour, the titular twins (Raúl Rivas & Daniel Cerezo) find themselves at the mercy of an oppressive teaching establishment that forbids all forms of recreation & entertainment. Determined...

Two men decide to attack another driver in a road rage incident. The cowards are happy to both attack the man, one of the men even carries a weapon. Allegedly the driver of the Silver Vauxhall Astra cut in front of a white transit van - almost causing a crash. However, that is no reason to launch such a vicious attack. Video footage filmed on a mobile phone shows a raging passenger landing six heavy blows as he leans through the...

So today is the day Theresa May fritters our future away, the jesters will sing. What seemed like a triumphant independence day back in June has become a running joke ever since, and those who championed it are the ones left sporting cap n' bells carrying a mock sceptre. Onwards and downwards chaps, onwards and downwards. Despite half of the country voting to remain and only a slightly more (proportionally) opting to leave we are being asked to unite as a country...

Set in a conflicted post-war Chile,...

A world first medical breakthrough has seen a quadriplegic able to move his arm for the first time in eight years - simply using the power of thought. Bill Kochevar - the first recipient of implanted brain-recording and muscle-stimulating systems - grabbed a mug of water, drew it to his lips and drank through the straw. The 56-year-old's motions were slow and deliberate, but he hadn't been able to move his right arm or hand for eight years. And his...
