Sherlock Beats Star Wars At South Korean Box Office
Sherlock 1 - 0 Star Wars
Step aside Star Wars lovers. You've been beaten. Sherlock Holmes stormed back onto our screens on New Years Day and in cinemas with 'The Abominable Bride' and has beaten 'The Force Awakens' at the South Korean Box Office.
3rd Place: Sherlock - 'The Abominable Bride'4th Place: Star Wars - 'The Force Awakens''The Abominable Bride' saw Sherlock (Benedict Cumberbatch) and John Watson (Martin Freeman) travel back in time to Victorian London for the 90 minute festive special. 'The Abominable Bride' gathered $4.4 Million. That is 16.4% of the New Year weekend's box office total.
Star Wars had unfortunately dropped down two places, yes two, as it's market share had rapidly dropped from 22.1% right down to just 9%. The force isn't so strong now.
The Force Awakens
2016 sees filming begin for Season 4 of Sherlock with an air date of 2017. However, Star Wars has overtaken 'Skyfall' and becoming the highest grossing film of all-time in the UK just 3 weeks after it was released. That's a plus side for Star Wars. Star Wars has made £102.3 million to this current date.
Sherlock returns to our screens next year!

Brideshead Revisited by Evelyn Waugh
Known as one of the most conflicting English novels of the war eras and represents the greater age concerning the downfall of the aristocracy. It’s full title being “Brideshead Revisited: The Sacred & Profane Memories of Captain Charles Ryder” leaves a lot to be imagined about what is so ‘profane’ about these memories and why the other memories are opposing these. Charles Ryder is the main character of a narrative that spans somewhere to 20 years and it tells the story of his relations with a strange aristocratic family named ‘The Flytes’.

Faedaze
Daisy leaned back against the wall of the window bench, the dress she was embroidering on falling to her lap, all but forgotten. Her gaze rested on the trees just beyond the edge of her garden, watching with dreamlike expression on her face, waiting for something others doubted would ever come.
