Advantages: Daniel Craig Disadvantages: Boring shallow characters
souls are called daemons and these walk beside them in the form of animals. Children's daemons can shape shift till they find their true form adults cannot. The gobblers are an unknown entity (the film's bad guys) that are kidnapping children, for what reason we don't know why until later in the film. Lyra's friend Roger gets taken by these which lead Lyra on a quest to find him she is given the golden compass to help her . The other thing I found weird about this film is that the girl Lyra is supposed to be the chosen one but not much is really said about this so it seems to make no impact on you as an audience.
One of the villains - Nicole Kidman Mrs Coulter is an evil woman whom we find out is Lyra's mother , usually I am a fan of Kidman ,however I personally found her performance weak and character shallow in this film. Fans of Daniel ...
Advantages: cinematography is spectacular Disadvantages: The script is flawed
of wondrous creatures some good who wish her well and offer their help, others not so good who are intent on hindering her on her quest. With the help of a golden compass only a select few are able to read to guide her on her way Lyra sets off on the adventure of a life time.

It is a testament to her talent that, when sharing camera time with the likes of Sam Elliot or in fact Nicole Kidman, she steals the focus. I look forward to seeing more from this bright star

INTRO
We received a jar of Mrs Bridge's Golden Humbugs as part of a gift. Having not heard or seen much about Mrs Bridges as a Company and given that these look very traditional and 'upmarket' I was intrigued to find out a bit more and if they actually tasted any better than your average humbug especially as Mrs Bridges state "Traditional Home Made Recipes - The Difference is in the Taste"
PACKAGING & INFO
As there is a picture above there's no need for a description but being a glass jar it's worth remembering that even if you don't find another use for it, it's recyclable. As these are Golden Humbugs they contain (amongst the usual sugar, flavouring etc) Glucose Syrup and Condensed Full Cream - luxury for me but not suitable for anyone with a lactose intolerance. They are also manufactured in a nut ...
