Horoscopes

Edgar Wright’s psychological thriller about a young girl, passionate in fashion design, who is mysteriously able to enter the 1960s where she encounters her idol, a dazzling wannabe singer. But 1960s London is not what it appears, and time seems to fall apart with shady consequences…

A mythic and emotionally charged hero’s journey, “Dune” tells the story of Paul Atreides, a brilliant and gifted young man born into a great destiny beyond his understanding, who must travel to the most dangerous planet in the universe to ensure the future of his family and his people. As malevolent forces explode into conflict over the planet’s exclusive supply of the most precious resource in existence—a commodity capable of unlocking humanity’s greatest potential—only those who can conquer their fear will survive. Villeneuve directed “Dune” from a screenplay by Jon Spaihts and Villeneuve and Eric Roth based on the novel of the same name written by Frank Herbert.

5 Things You Probably Didn’t Know Were From Bristol

The North American Accent Blankets

There is suggestion that Bristol’s accent directly influenced that of North America. We’re not saying that they’re the same but put them side by side and you can certainly hear a link. This is likely to be because (many, many years ago) the very first Pilgrims set off for America from Bristol’s port and after that trade was strong between the two places for a long, long time. It’s no surprise that the two accents are linked.

Chocolate

Now we admit that we can’t be 100% certain on this one but legend does have it that it was a wool merchant from Bristol that actually invented the blanket. His name, Edward Blanket, gives us a clue that he may have been the inventor and we’re pretty sure that he’d be super proud today knowing that the humble blanket is used on every corner of the earth.

Methodism

It’s true, a native Bristolian called Joseph Fry was the very first person to create the chocolate bar as we know it. Chocolate had been around for a while before hand but it was in the guise of a drink. It was Fry that turned this idea into an actual bar and so the world can thank Bristol (especially Mr Fry!) for the gift of chocolate. The first Methodist preacher was a Bristolian. In 1739 John Wesley took the first steps to a new strain of religion called Methodism. He preached a sermon from Hanham Mount to local miners and similar style sermons were soon incredibly popular. In the same year the very first Methodist chapel was built, also in Bristol.

Ribena

This popular drink is also from Bristol. It was originally invented at the National Fruit and Cider Institute and is now sold globally. Bristol
