"I've been planning this for a long time."
Thus begins the creeptacular second episode of The Following, Kevin Williamson's action-packed, blood soaked cautionary meditation on the Internet, romantic literature, and the dangers of buying meat from street carts.
Jordy the crooked prison guard has no trouble convincing a sorority girl to let him into her house in the middle of the night, and before you can say "Lost in Your Eyes", she (along with several of her sleeping pals) has lost hers. I hope none of them was Sober Sister! Just another night at Bad Judgment University...
Meanwhile, Ryan Hardy (Kevin Bacon) and the Assorted Hunky Feds learn that Claire's apple-cheeked nanny Denise (Valorie Curry) is actually named Emma. Gasp!

Dave Boyle looks at the Co-operative's long standing relationship with cinema and how it is embracing change
The Electric Picture House in Wotton is unusual for several reasons. It's not that it's got a famous patron in Catherine Johnson, writer of Mamma Mia, who grew up nearby and came to see her film one day at the 100-seat venue.
It's not that volunteers run the whole show or even that with fewer than 6,000 residents, it's one of the smallest communities with a permanent, dedicated cinema in its own building, showing around 10 shows each week.
What makes Wotton pretty special is that it's one of a handful of co-operative cinemas in the country, owned not by a charitable trust or private company but by its audience, its volunteers and its original investors. Its profits are donated back to the community via the Wotton Recreation Trust.
The co-operative movement has a longstanding relationship with film.
