There are just too many good events around town this week for us to narrow our picks for certain nights. Thus we present you with multiple options and leave that difficult choice to you. In the meantime, we’ll be brushing up on our science fiction in an effort to figure out how to move quickly from event to event. The solution? Teleporting. Clearly. Monday: writLoud returns to RADA tonight. We like this event, as......

Call us starry-eyed saps, but when we learned today that J.M. Barrie’s former home is up for sale, we couldn’t help that we were filled with whimsical visions of left-behind shadows, fanciful fantasies of flights to Neverland, and an urge to occupy the place immediately. With the friendly ghost of Barrie and an inexhaustible supply of fairy dust, we’re pretty sure we’d crank out seventeen Londonist posts a day. Write our first novels. Never......

It's not every night you get to hang out with Tinkerbell, Snow White and Red Riding Hood. But then, Rockaberet isn't your usual night out (where would be the fun in that?). We've told you a bit about it before, but we decided that as it's so much fun, we needed to show you what you were missing. And if you weren't at the Fairy Tale Ball on Saturday, you missed a great show.......

As the more hoop-savvy amongst you will know the NBA has beaten the NFL to London by just over a fortnight as the Boston Celtics are scheduled to face the Minnesota Timberwolves in an already sold out pre-season game at the O2 Arena on October 10th. If you're not fortunate enough to have a ticket for that then this weekend offers you the opportunity to join in the basketball razzmatazz as NBA Madness 2007......

Geraldine McCaughrean's sequel to Peter Pan looks set to hit the big screen. Has anyone managed to pull off a decent Peter Pan on film yet? Not to worry - sequels never ever suck. With that in mind here are five pitches that we'd like to see thrown about in the new year: The Railway Children II: Privatisation: After their father is accused of spiking sushi with polonium-210, three children find amusement in watching......

Bit of an eco two pronger this one - first up is the news that while big companies are encouraged to do all they can to recycle, smaller firms are being sidelined: The London Assembly's environment committee has published a report claiming smaller businesses are being all but ignored in the drive to promote the use of recycled products... It is totally unacceptable for the Mayor, LDA and London Remade to focus only on......

LinkMachineGo has been keeping us up to speed with the fallout over Alan Moore's Lost Girls: Comic row over graphic Peter Pan / Sex acts' Wendy is Panned / Hospital worry at "porn" take on Peter Pan's Wendy / Alan Moore's erotic Lost Girls / Rich Johnson on Lost Girls / Rich Johnson Reviews Lost Girls You know already then that this is going to be awesome.

Sad sad news: Due to his commitment to the upcoming Simon Cowell series "America's Got Talent," "Baywatch" star David Hasselhoff will no longer be playing Captain Hook in a London holiday pantomime of Peter Pan. Say it ain't so. We were seriously considering going along to live blog the damn thing. The show's producers First Family Entertainment are "in negotiations to secure a major star to take on the role”. We're not sure we'd......

David Hasselhoff in Wimbledon, dressed as a pirate. That sentence isn't the product of some surreal, word asociation exercise. It's fact. David Hasselfhoff is coming to town and he'll be dressed like a pirate. And standing next to him will be Bobby Davro. The Baywatch star has agreed to play Captain Hook in a Christmas production of Peter Pan, reports the Sun. 'The Hoff' is reportedly being paid £300,000 to make his panto debut......

Peter Pan is back. Captain Hook couldn't kill him, Robin Williams had a damn good try while Jeremy Sumpter's attempt was mostly ignored, but now children’s' author Geraldine McCaughrean has breathed some fresh life into Michael Jackson's inspiration for messing around in kids' bedrooms. The not so catchy 'Peter Pan in Scarlet' will tell readers what happened next not only to Peter, but the rest of the gang too: McCaughrean said: "Neverland was such......

Ahh, the good old days of the gentlemen spy: bowler hats, poison-tipped umbrellas, cigarette cases and, best of all, no David Shayler. What's made us all misty-eyes for the golden years of espionage? The discovery of a KGB 'spy's guide to London' in the latest bundle of MI5 files released to the National Archives. "Apparently seized by the Germans from a Russian agent captured in Paris during World War II," only to fall, "into......

It seems the prize for 2005's most ridiculous excuse may have already been won after Abu Hamza refused to appear at the Old Bailey today because "his toenails are too long". The former Imam of Finsbury Park mosque was due to appear via video-link from a special room at Belmarsh prison (his current residence) to answer charges of terrorism, but refused to leave his cell complaining that he couldn't walk. Hamza's defence counsel said......
