Behind Door Number 11…
For me, there is nothing that epitomises Christmas time more than a good festive movie. And having already delved into the brilliant Nightmare Before Christmas, the next logical step would have to be Jim Hensen’s holiday masterpiece, The Muppets Christmas Carol. Taking it’s inspiration from the novel of the same title, it’s a hilarious yet […]

On the Tenth Day of Christmas…
Now, a proper Christmas classic for all you EDGE readers. It’s stupid, childish and I can bet you will all feel a little bit ashamed when you laugh out loud to this, but rest assured, there is no way you will be the only one! I remember the first time I saw this clip, and […]

Behind the 9th Door of The EDGE Advent Calendar…
The EDGE are not in any way condoning the abominable duo that is Jedward. However. When we saw this video of their atrocious Christmas medley, smiles were cracking out left right and centre, because it is simply hideous. They do not know the words, it’s not in any way in tune at any moment throughout the whole video, and […]

On the Eighth Day of Christmas…
The Nightmare Before Christmas is probably one of the best films to watch around Christmas time – it is certainly up there with the likes of Elf and Miracle of 34th Street. It’s great because it somehow manages to bridge the holiday gap between Halloween and Christmas, fusing ghouls and ghosts with glitter and magic […]

December 7th – 17 Days to Go…
‘Things you don’t want to hear at Christmas’ – the possibilities are endless: “They were out of turkeys this year, so we’re having reindeer instead” “All the snow has melted, so thankfully Granny and Grampa can make it here for dinner” Perhaps I’ll leave being funny to the professionals… Mock the Week’s Christmas special is […]

On the Sixth Day of Christmas…
On the sixth day of Christmas, my true love gave to me… Father ‘Billie Joe’ Christmas… It’s the time of year to get festive, so that means mince pies, Christmas decorations, and the inevitable Christmas songs plaguing the radio stations, shopping centres, music channels and the like. Whether you love or hate the festive season, it […]

On the Fifth Day of Christmas…
On the fifth day of Christmas, my true love sent to me… Father Ted and a Christmas Tree One thing that is great about Christmas is all the tv that gets made just for that occasion. Every sitcom these days seems to have a Christmas special, packed to the brim with special guests, cameos and […]

Behind Door Number 4…
Christmas is a pretty expensive time of year – Presents, cards, Christmas parties, obligatory mince pie gorging. Here at The EDGE, we are all for saving money where ever possible (the team this year are getting homemade Jam and glitter penned cards from myself, whilst we have also resorted to working in the dark to save on […]

On the Third Day of Christmas…
On the third day of Christmas, my true love gave to me….a large dose of Jim Carey Well, it’s that time of year again. As Southampton o-d’s on the white stuff (yes, I DO mean snow), we have been taking a little look at the best Christmas videos that make us laugh, make us cry, […]

Enter Shikari – Destabilise
Enter Shikari are an act that seemingly divide opinions – often their sound is too diverse, encompassing so many varying styles that it’s difficult to classify them, and new release, ‘Destabilise’, is no different. Pushing the definition of what it means to be a post-hardcore act to a greater degree, ‘Destabalise’ draws upon dubstep, pop, […]
