    • Bouřlivý mrzout a snaživá "slušňačka" ve svěží romantické komedii na prknech, která znamenají svět. Mohla by taková napohled nereálná láska být skutečná nebo to na nás talentovaní herci prostě jen hrají? Lainie a Richard spolu hrají v jednom slavném, ale chátrajícím divadle a Richard má problémy s výbušností jak v práci, tak na veřejnosti. Divadelní PR oddělení tedy přijde s plánem, že Richard a Lainie (kteří se navzájem nesnáší) spolu budou naoko chodit, to přitáhne pozornost médií, do divadla bude chodit víc lidí a Richard bude vnímán veřejností lépe. Ze začátku na sebe samozřejmě oba štěkají, ale postupně se začnou sbližovat a nakonec spolu chodí doopravdy. Celé je to prošpikované dobrým dialogem, vtipnými momenty, do toho se plete Lainein bývalý, který s nimi taky hraje v divadle a herci od konkurence.

      2014 marks the centenary of the outbreak of the Great War, arguably the definitive conflict in the history of Europe. Never before or since has such a great swell of popular sentiment produced such a patriotic rush to arms. In the trenches and on the battlefield, British soldiers united with their allies to fight valiantly for the cause. At very great cost, they delivered Western Europe from a new Dark Age. Providing a vital insight into this pivotal period, historians John Sadler and Rosie Serdiville disclose the poignant and emotive experiences of war, in the front line and behind, from men and women of every class and background. Combining rich anecdote and unique testimony, the stories of those that passed through the ordeal of war reveal remarkable tales of horror and suffering, but also the comradeship, exhilaration and adventure of the Western Front. This is the human story of the Great War, told by those who lived through it.
