The Jumpers of Christmas Past...
The world has literally gone crazy for kitsch, Cheesy Christmas Jumpers (or ugly jumpers as some people like to call them).
We have been hooked ever since Colin Firth fashioned a rather fetching Reindeer Jumper in Bridget Jones Diary, but it doesn't end or even begin there. The cult of the Christmas Jumper has reigned for quite some time now. Ever since grannies decided to take up knitting needles, keeping themselves busy with increasingly intricate, vivid, sparkly and even 3D, festive woolen fantasies, people have been either proudly flaunting this festive fashion or begrudgingly obliged to wear it at family functions.
If it seems all too familiar, you will probably recognise the deliberate fashion faux-pas from some of your favourite movies and TV shows. Remember these?
The Weekly Retro Movie Rundown 76!
Call Dr Legg it has to be the blinking Weekend!
So as we dramatically slow motion walk towards our fighter jet, helmet in one hand. So we can coolly but casually adjust our aviator shades let us be your heroic, slick back haired, F-16 Tom-Cat Pilot. As we hit a montage of us high fiving our wingman for retro movie greatness, weâll take off and tail spin for cinematic awesomeness before an aerial assault of celluloid magnificence.
Have a happy retro weekend!

Slugs, snails and puppy dogs tails it has to be the weekend!
So hidden away in the darkness at the tail end of Midnight. Inside a damp dingy cave, let us be your coven of haggard, wicked witches. Some tall, some short, some fat and some thin with boils and ragged clothes, topped off with pointed slightly askew hats, each one equal in their evilness to the last.
Stand in horror as we mix a potion to find retro movie greatness, before reciting the spell for cinematic fantasticness then finally we'll bask in the wickedness that is celluloide wonder.
Have a happy retro weekend!

Take a peep and give them a go!
Why not turn your humble pumpkin into something pretty sinister with these amazing Star Wars ideas!
