Who Wants to Be a Billionaire?
Who Wants to be a Billionaire? is the story of James Packer's desperate battle to win his father's love and respect. It is also a tale of billion-dollar bets gone disastrously wrong. But above all it is a portrait of a troubled relationship between a dominant father and dutiful son. In this powerful sequel to his bestselling The Rise and Rise of Kerry Packer, Paul Barry shows how James's father kept his grip on the empire even as he lay close to death. And he reveals what drives his heir. As a child James was derided by Kerry as too soft, too close to his mother, or simply 'a loser'. Since then he has struggled to make his father proud - in the only way the Packers know - by making money. Ha...
Quicklet on Bones: Season 1
Everyone loves a good crime drama. There's just something about impossibly hot forensics experts using computer programs (that run on magic) to solve brutal homicides that feels both enthralling and soothing. But what happens in TV World when the corpse in question is less of a pretty aspiring actress lying really, really still on a coroner's slab, and more of a squishy pile of goop? That's where Temperance Brennan, Seeley Booth, and the (impossibly hot) posse of forensic scientists at the fictional Jeffersonian Institute come in. Fox's Bones centers on the unlikely partnership of Temperance "Bones" Brennan (played by Emily Deschanel), a socially awkward forensic anthropologist at the Jeffersonian and part-time novelist, and Seeley Booth (played by David Boreanaz), a charismatic sniper-turned-FBI agent. Using Brennan's talent for deduction in a very specific field, and Booth's reassuring swagger and deadly aim with a firearm, the pair takes on Washington D.C.'s toughest cold or otherwise unsolvable murder cases with a little help from the scientific powerhouse (holographic visualizers!) at the Jeffersonian.

Special Branch
Initially tasked with combatting the threat of Irish republican terrorists in the reign of Queen Victoria, the Metropolitan Police Special Branch went on to play a major role in the defence of the realm for over 120 years. Over time, 'the Branch', as it came to be known, assumed a much wider role, and was held responsible for monitoring the activities of anarchists, Bolsheviks and even the suffragettes. Later, it became the executive arm of MI5 in dealing with espionage cases, as (much to their frustration) the Security Service had no power to arrest potential spies. As the war against terrorism became more intense in the latter half of the twentieth century, Special Branch worked closely wi...
