Britain at Bay: Peace & War 1937 - 1940 treat as PG 
8pm Monday 8 February 2010 
DIRECTOR Marion Grierson, Humphrey Jennings, Harold Purcell and others
A programme of films from the BFI National Archive, some rarely screened, others rightly celebrated. They vividly capture the transition from optimism to high alert as the nation faced up to another momentous conflict.

Sherlock Holmes 12A

DIRECTOR Guy Ritchie
CAST Robert Downey Jr, Jude Law, Mark Strong, Rachel McAdams
Forget the deerstalker and spyglass, this is high-octane stuff. Ritchie portrays Holmes (Downey Jr) as a bare knuckle fighter who plunges into fits of depression between cases and Watson (Law), a military man back from the 1870’s Afghan wars, has a taste for mayhem and gambling. Together they unravel a deadly plot that could destroy the country. (2009 UK / Australia / USA 128 minutes)

Alvin, Simon and Theodore put aside music superstardom and enter their school’s battle of the bands. But it’s not as easy as they expect and they meet their match in The Chipettes: three female singing chipmunks. Romantic and musical sparks fly. (2009 USA 88 minutes)

His world is shattered further when a seemingly random attack by three black youths leaves both David and his adult daughter physically and emotionally broken.
