- Jack Bannon, looking like a young Dirk Bogarde crossed with Michael Caine's "Alfie"
- Paloma Faith - stealing every scene, channelling ITV's "Vera"
- London art direction: 1700's/1940/swinging 60's - WW2 barrage balloons, airships overhead, gibbets and criminals in stocks arranged around Trafalgar Square, Soho neons ("The Rubber Strumpet"). Like "Gotham", loads of steam and smoke billowing across the landscape.
- Lord Harwood's (Jason Flemyng) entrance alighting from his Rolls Royce (Licenced plates "1964"), striding across the mall in flowing supervillain robes.
- Co-Producer Bruce Heller's snappy dialogue and weird walk-ons. Who was the waiter dressed as a forest creature in the gentleman's club at the start of Episode 3?
A The Armstrong Miller Show, funniest sketch show in the last 10 years.
B Beautiful People, TV series, another gem.
C Countdown, Sunday 6pm required viewing for baby boomers in 70's and 80's.
D Django Unchained, just perfect movie - the KKK scene with Jonah Hill will become a classic.
E E! channel, home to the best 22 minutes on US TV: Chelsea Lately.
F Fashion Police (see E). Also the stylish and funny singer F is for Paloma Faith.
G Ghost - punchy sea shanty-like song by The Presets.
H Hitchcock, patchy movie from 2012, a better bio is HBO's The Girl.
I IMDB, now what do I do with my old Leonard Maltin MovieGuide?
J Joy FM, always interesting, less crap commercials, good chat, fun music, an alternative to Triple J. Not only for gay listeners.

L The Late Show, God I miss it, my daughter can quote sketches from the DVD. Thanks Tony Martin, Mick Molloy, Jason Stephens, Judith Lucy and the Working Dog powerhouse (Tom, Santo, Jane and Rob).
M Margaret and David ... best movie couple after "Two on the aisle" with Ivan Hutchinson and Jim Murphy in the 1970's.
N Nesbo, Jo - Harry Hole series.
O Off colour and non-PC humour in Family Guy. Seth MacFarlane is an encyclopaedia of media kitsch from last century. Naughty genius.
P The Project, underrated in more ways than one. Charlie Pickering for PM. Panel has great chemistry - I won't mention S. Price.
Q Q, the new one, Ben Whishaw. He is also great in BBC's The Hour.
R RRR 102.7 FM broadcast a great show on Sunday evening in the mid 80's called EEEK! Thanks Philip Brophy and Bruce Milne.
S Skyfall, the scene with the old DB5 brought a lump in my throat. (Watch that red button on the gearshift, M).
T Tennant, Neil (half of The Pet Shop Boys), still going strong.
U Upside down jet in Flight, fabulous fifteen minute sequence - never to be shown on inflight entertainment.
V Vampires - Let the right one in, great book, two good movies.
W wotif.com -but use in conjunction with tripadvisor reviews.

Y Youtube - thanks theblackholebowl and nickfulham for your hard work.
Z Zero Dark Thirty, okay I was desperate for a "z"
