...surprise that, within the film's first 15 minutes, David is killed as he and Erica walk their dog in Central Park. He's pounded into mulch by three thugs (of carefully indeterminate race), one of whom records the assaults on his picture phone. Erica is also beaten but survives...

Paisley has been in politics almost as long as he's been in the pulpit: he ensured that his rivals for the unionist vote were beaten at the ballot box before he took the plunge with Sinn Fein, so his internal critics currently have nowhere to go.

"Guys feel a little more uncomfortable if they have to hit an extra ball." Even those...

All of them had watched the reality show, and though a few thought that Derek should have beaten out Max for the role of Danny Zuko, they were dying to see the Broadway revival. Which is sort of what we're going for here, isn't it? I mean, getting a new generation excited about theater again...
