Spellbinder

Do you remember the series called Spellbinder (in polish Dwa światy)? It is a fantasy teen drama/science fiction series produced by Film Australia and Telewizja Polska. I used to watch it as a child, but I didn't know that it was co produced by polish television. When I realized that I was quite surprised. The scenes in "modern world" were shot in Australia, and the scenes in "medieval world" were shot in Poland. Of course the language of the series in English. I think most of you remember the Spellbinder, it was really popular. :) 

Beverly Hills, 90210

This is the other series I remember from my childchood. It was one of the most popular series of the end of 90's and of the beginnings of 00's in Poland. I know that there is a new version, but I don't think that it is as good as the original. The series chronicled the lives of group of friends living in the upscale and star-studded community of Beverly Hills, California as they navigated high school to collage, and subsequently into the adult world. Should I watch in again? I saw it last time like 15 years ago. It would be a great opportunity to improve English and be back in those "happy kid times" :). 

Keeping up appearances

Do you remember this sitcom which was so famous back in the 90’s? I used to love it, and I’m sure I’ll watch it again soon. I think it's a good way to improve English and at the same time it’ll be like a return to childhood. Those of You who didn't see this series I highly recommend it. The main character is Hyacinth who will do everything for keeping up appearances, but always is happening something which makes her look funny. Also there are more hilarious characters like Hyacinth’s sisters, her neighbor or even her husband. :)

 

The Returned

I just have stared watching an American series called The Returned. It's a supernatural drama, with some scary moments. The series follows residents in a small town whose lives are disrupted when people who have been dead for many years begin reappearing. The first season runs for ten episodes. It is filmed in Squamish, British Columbia, so there are a lot of beautiful views. I’m impressed with this series, it's really engrossing. The fact that the people who died are back is interesting and as I said a little bit shocking. Every chapter presents the story of different person, but also they are showing us the development of the previous stories as all the protagonists live in the same small city. I highly recommend you this series, you will love it. 

Here's the trailer :) 

Lip sync fails

I just have found the video of 80s’ European singer pop star Sandra singing at Sopot Festival in 2008. I saw it back in 2008 but I forgot about this. I was impressed with her singing, and I couldn't understand how it’s possible for 50 years old woman to sing as 20 years old girl. Of course it was lip synced, and in a bad way. It could be better record new “actual” versions of her songs, if she can't sing. I don't know what is better: lip syncing, singing live even horrible or just not doing performances. The others 80s’ singers who preformed this day were singing live without using playback as did Sandra. Nevertheless people was enjoying her performance… 

Here's her show :) 

Ester – cold as (almost) always

I’m really mad at the weather this year. It’s spring, and we have winter outdoors. Easter is that holiday, in which it should be warmer… Why during all holidays, like Christmas, New Year’s Eve, even Ester we have to stay most of the time in our houses, because of low temperatures, wind and rain? I hate the climate we live in. I hate when after sleeping 8 or 9  hours I feel bad with no interest to do something. That’s the reason I’ll leave Poland one day.

All the same I wish You happy Easter! 

Nice Miami mansion

Some time ago, I read that Colombian singer Shakira put her Miami Beach, Florida mansion back on the market for $13 million, and it’s 2 million less than the “original” price from 2011 and 2013. What is interesting in the fact that she bought this mansion in 2001 for $3.38 million, so it’s $10 million more expensive.  It’s the third time Shakira has attempted to sell her Miami’s house, which boasts six bedrooms, nine baths, an edge pool, and some celebrity neighbours, including Matt Damon, Cher and Ricky Martin. The mansion has 8,355 sqft and was built in 1951.  

The house is awesome, If I were she I would save it for me. As she don’t need the money, it’s unnecessary selling it.
