Tagged as 'The transgender revenge comedy of the year' (Rolling Stone) Tangerine was shot entirely on an iPhone 5 by director Sean Baker (STARLET, PRINCE OF BROADWAY).

Taking over the East London basement, Joyeux Bordel is essentially a cocktail bar, but there’s also a strong focus on music as well – featuring a vintage sound system with emphasis on vinyl and an eclectic music programme that embraces afro, soul, funk, and disco through...

By Lewis Bunney (@bunneylewis)   Finding its origins in the Brighton club scene just two years ago, Mute has become a force to be reckoned with in the party scene, expanding their club nights to include venues across London and Manchester. With several heavyweight acts signed up for their second birthday celebrations, including UK garage and grime pioneer DJ Slimzee, TLE thought it would be a great time to catch up with Co-Founder and Director of Mute, Jack Lydon. TLE:...

By Jonathan Hatchman, Food Editor, @TLE_Food “Are you aware of our concept here?” our waitress asks as my heart begins to sink, during a mid-week lunch trip to Blanchette in Soho. “Our menu is mainly made up of French tapas dishes,” she explains. French tapas? Is there really such a thing? As far as restaurant concepts go, anything overly extravagant or contemporary is generally something that’s never appealed to this writer, having been paced through the rigmarole of many an...

By Eleanor Stammeijeir (@ElStammjam) 11.11.15. Under The Bridge, London It’s safe to say that Under the Bridge is officially my new favourite venue, and not just because of the name. It was the perfect place for Skye’s showcase of her latest album, In A Low Light. Not only were the people at the venue wonderful, but their toilets had two wins in the 2014 ‘Loo of the Year Awards’.

Dame Hyndman  @duncanpoundcake When asked why Schindler’s List was not shot in colour, Spielberg answered by saying he did not want to beautify the horror of the Holocaust with colour. It did not deserve to be shot in colour. Colour represents life and hope. Think of colour films and you would be forgiven for going with super vibrant Technicolour films from the late 1930’s through to 1950’s. Technicolour film was not about real life, it was world of heightened colour...

Footy Face Swap Does what it says on the tin. Footballers, managers and pundits swap their face with other football professionals. Or in the case of Wayne Rooney, Shrek. Bruce at Wedding There's always one Steve Bruce at a wedding. Check out the man himself turning up to celebrate random nuptials. Boring James Milner  Ever changed a 4.5 tog duvet for a brand new 13.5 tog duvet and being so excited about it that you had to go to bed at...

By Nathan Lee, TLE Correspondent  Hollywood star George Clooney arrived in Scotland today and visited a social enterprise sandwich shop that trains, employs and feeds local homeless people. Staff at Social Bite, which gives 100 per cent of its profits to charity, recruits a quarter of its staff from homeless backgrounds, and runs a ‘suspended’ service where customers can pre-pay food for homeless people to claim later, welcomed Mr Clooney to their Rose Street shop in Edinburgh city centre. Whilst in the...

Terence Davies (The House of Mirth, The Deep Blue Sea) has taken on the challenge of adapting Lewis Grassic Gibbon's classic Scottish tale Sunset Song.
