Nothing on at the cinema, besides Return of the King, which I have a ticket to for next weekend.

So we decided to stay in to spill ice-cream on our shirts and watch Pirates of the Caribbean.

Johnny Depp is very good in this - he sounded a little like Richard E Grant. He did have some good lines too:

Yeah, but what happened to the rum?

Maybe he based Captain Jack Sparrow on Withnail. Orlando appeared to play his part as Legolas, without the pointy ears. The lovely Kiera was thankfully given a better role than she was in the Phantom Menace.

Lots of British actors got a look in too, including Mackenzie "Gareth" Crook and Jack "Miles" Davenport.

Sword fights. Skeletons. Ships. Monkeys. Pirates. What more could you want?
