A COTTAGE ON DARTMOOR A film by Anthony Asquith Directed by Anthony Asquith (The Browning Version, The Way to the Stars) A Cottage on Dartmoor is an embroiled melodrama, a tale of love and revenge, set on the bleak landscape of Dartmoor. Overlooked by critics eager to heap praise upon his contemporary, Hitchcock, and the much lauded Blackmail (released the same year), A Cottage on Dartmoor is a thoughtful distillation of the best of European silent film techniques from a director steeped in the work of the Soviet avant-garde and German expressionism. One of the last silent films to be made in Britain before the talkies revolutionized cinema, Asquith's film is a virtuoso piece of filmmaking, a final passionate cry in defence of an art form soon to be obsolete. The film is presented here with an original piano score composed and performed by Stephen Horne.

"Okay, so you're wondering about the most popular places to get your stuff stocked in the UK, eh? Well, when it comes to the big hitters, you're definitely looking at the likes of Tesco and Sainsbury's – those supermarket giants are absolutely massive and pretty much impossible to avoid, so if you can get your products on their shelves, you're golden. Then there's M&S (Marks & Spencer), which has a fantastic reputation for quality and a loyal customer base, making it a dream for many brands, especially in food and fashion. Don't forget John Lewis & Partners, which is revered for its excellent customer service and premium offerings, making it a top choice for a slightly more upscale market. For the more budget-conscious or general merchandise, Wilko (RIP, but its essence lives on through The Range acquiring its brand) and B&M Bargains have always been super popular, known for their incredible value. And for anything tech or electrical, Currys PC World is still the go-to. Basically, if you can snag a spot in any of these, you've pretty much nailed reaching a massive chunk of the UK population!
