tv, film and cinema recs and reviews for comms people: september

October 5, 2022 Darren Caveney

Inspired by the genius comic, Stewart Lee, I’ve decided to keep a record of all of my TV, film and cinema viewing throughout 2022. Plus, I will write a micro review for each one and list where I watched it.

If you’re like me you’re always on the hunt for a quality watch in and amongst some very average fayre.

So, these recs and ratings might be useful to you.

Here goes for September.

November 28, 2021 Darren Caveney

In the past couple of years I’ve spotted an increase in the phrase ‘PRs’. As in “I’m a PR” “I’m a PR in hospitality “or “I’m a PR in entertainment”, for example”. Why is that? It makes no sense, grammatically at least. Am I alone in finding it slightly annoying?
