  2. The Rocky Horror Picture Show -- Brad Janet
    Over the course of The Rocky Horror Picture Show, Janet quickly discovers sexual feelings that Brad is ill-prepared to meet. As the film opens, their friends Ralph and Betty are newly hitched, inspiring Brad to propose to Janet by singing the song "Dammit Janet." At one point during the number she puckers to kiss him, but he leaves her hanging, too busy chirping about how much he loves her to notice. Brad evidently finds courtship more interesting than lovemaking. Meanwhile, sex in Denton is seen in terms of serving the male partner's interests. Girls--good girls, in particular--don't want sex--the very act of getting married is their form of sex. The pro-rape slogan written in shaving cream on the side of the happily-married couple's car makes this very explicit: "Wait till tonite/She got hers, now he is going to get his." There is an ominous overcast throughout "Dammit Janet," foreshadowing the storm that will force Brad and Janet to seek shelter in Frank's castle whilst seriously sabotaging any inkling that this marriage will turn out OK. The last shot in the sequence is of a cross, which sets up a four-way wipe to The Criminologist in his lab.
  3. Joan Collins -- London Eye
    Joan Collins's story begins rather more decorously. Born in London in 1933, she was such a pretty, green-eyed baby that her mother had to hang a sign on her pram saying; 'Do Not Kiss'. If only she had hung onto that sign!
  4. Witches
    "Witches are not by nature gregarious, at least with other witches, and they certainly don't have leaders. Granny Weatherwax was the most highly-regarded of the leaders they didn't have." She was ... the original witch who made her debut in Equal Rites, although Granny has changed substantially since then. Nanny and Magrat joined Granny in Wyrd Sisters to form a coven of three superbly mismatched individuals who combine to excellent comic effect. In Lords and Ladies, however, Magrat effectively left the coven by marrying a king, and Maskerade was chiefly concerned with securing her replacement, Agnes 'Perdita X. Dream' Nitt. It remains to be seen how well Agnes will function as a foil for Granny and Nanny.
  5. Guy Pearce -- Australia
    Born in 1967 in Cambridgeshire, England, Guy Pearce emigrated to Australia to live in Geelong, Victoria, with his family when he was three years old. Five years later, his father, a New Zealand pilot, died in a plane crash leaving his English schoolteacher mother to care for him and his older sister Tracey.
  6. Brandy
    Cardinal Mendoza Brandy de LujoThe exclusive, family use for which this exquisite brandy de Jerez was created made the use of a glass decanter necessary as it was neither sold nor bottled. A few years ago it was decided to recover this beautiful bottle for its commercialisation. A fine crystal decanter that adds to the enjoyment and which accentuates the distinguished mahogany tones for which "Cardenal Mendoza" is renowned.
