In a welcome change of pace, the relationship complications in this volume of Friends Series 8 fall upon Phoebe as "The One with the Tea Leaves" hooks her up with a stellar cameo from Alec Baldwin. He reappears for the elder Gellers' 35th wedding anniversary party in "The One in Massapequa", where it turns out some white lies have been bandied about to cover Rachel's pregnancy. Then, in what seems like a complete stand-alone episode, "The One with Joey's Interview" has Matt LeBlanc on top form preparing to be interviewed by Soap Opera Digest. Naturally he goofs things up big time. His next disaster awaits him when hosting a new quiz show, but this is all secondary in "The One with the Baby Shower" to Rachel realising how scatty her maternal instincts are while her own mother gets underfoot. This episode features an impressively emotional performance from Aniston as she comes to terms with coming into term. --Paul Tonks

A hilarious, entirely improvised mockumentary on the beautiful game from cult film-maker Gary Sinyor (Leon the Pig Farmer, Stiff Upper Lips), United We Fall tells the story of five overpaid, overbranded and oversexed footie mates who play for the biggest football club in the world . On the brink of making history, all they had to do was win the last three games of the 2010 season... and they failed - totally and utterly! Homophobia, racism, adultery, corruption and plain old stupidity all share some of the blame - and a formal lunch with all five players and their partners to work out what went wrong seems very likely to be the worst thing they could possibly do!

The Dead Hate the Living is a love letter to the nightmarish scenarios and visual freakouts of Italian horror pictures, although it also echoes with such American genre classics as Phantasm, The Evil Dead, and Scream. What could be better than a bunch of Italian horror buffs making their own zombie flick in a spooky abandoned hospital? Being attacked by the real thing, of course. The hapless crew discover a creepy black altar (complete with its own decorative corpse) and incorporate it into their film. When their scripted ceremony opens a portal from another dimension and unleashes an army of rampaging zombies, the hallways become flooded in red and blue and green pools of light for no good reason other than it looks cool. The hospital is suddenly adrift in an alternative reality because... well, just because. Writer-director Dave Parker never tries to explain the madness (a zombie's exclamation, "Hate the living! Love the dead!" is as much motive as we're offered), choosing instead simply to plunge viewers into the inspired mayhem. What makes it all work is a love of the genre, a cast of energetic, likable performers, cool zombie makeup, and a sure, stylish hand. Horror movie mavens will pick up on oodles of clever references (a bumper sticker that reads "Fulci lives"; a zombie king commanding, "Make them die... slowly"), but these are merely asides in an accomplished, clever, and remarkably entertaining indie horror riff. --Sean Axmaker, Amazon.com

Amongst the man's sophisticated circle of London friends and the influx of young military officers surely there will be no shortage of suitors for the Bennet sisters.

Lots happened behind the scenes between seasons and early on in the seventh year of the hit comedy, leaving audiences speculating that this might be the last. Perry became seriously ill again, and returned looking more emaciated than eve r. Cox regained weight, but despite finishing Scream 3 happily, things were already rocky with David Arquette. Much was made in the press about Aniston marrying Brad Pitt, of course, but the real news (allaying fans' fears) was NBC's expensive renewal of the cast for two years at $750,000 per episode each (more than six times their previous increase). On-screen, at least there was Chandler and Monica's engagement lasting the whole year, despite predictable ups and downs (eg: "T.O.W. The Truth About London" revealing that Monica fancied Joey). By the time we finally get to "T.O.W. Chandler's Dad" (Kathleen Turner), it seems inevitable that the two-part finale will be an insane mess--but with a happy-ish ending. Sure enough, "T.O.W. Chandler and Monica's Wedding" features Gary Oldman joining in the chaos as Chandler repeatedly goes missing. Other star-turns in the year were Seinfeld's Jason Alexander as a suicidal Office Manager, Susan Sarandon as soap queen bitch Jessica Lockhart, Denise Richards as one of Ross and Monica's endless number of cousins and Winona Ryder as a surprise old friend, prompting "T.O.W. Rachel's Big Kiss". But perhaps the most telling instalment of this weirdly atmospheric year was "T.O.W. They All Turn Thirty". It suggested that maybe the Friends are all getting too old to carry on living their frivolous lives the same way after all. Paul Tonks
