To mark the 70th anniversary of Victory in Europe day, our Portsmouth site Fort Nelson will be firing the impressive 25 pounder self-propelled gun at 1pm and 3pm today.

Christmas Box
At Christmas 1914, the teenage Princess Mary, daughter of King George V and Queen Mary, wanted to send a 'gift from the Nation' to all who were away from home for Christmas, fighting for our freedom. An advertisement in the national press invited contributions for a 'Sailors & Soldiers Christmas Fund'. Following a generous response … Continue reading Christmas Box
STEN – Now and Then
Mass-produced military firearms rarely survive with much of their service histories intact. At the Royal Armouries in Leeds we recently discovered an exception that has been hiding a lot of history - in plain sight - in the markings stamped and scratched into its metal body. It is a rare type of Mk.II STEN made … Continue reading STEN – Now and Then

Pick of the week: Hot Chip, Ready For The Floor (EMI)
Music currently boasts few more unusual and compelling figures than Hot Chip's Alexis Taylor. A mole-like gentleman in big glasses and a variety of daring outfits - Hip-hop boy scout! Nu-rave supervillain! - Taylor has one of the sweetest voices in pop, a sugary-sad serenade, like R Kelly's melancholy mini-me. Ready For The Floor is robotic electro-pop poised somewhere between writhing minimal techno and the soundtrack to some old Commodore 64 game. There, at the centre, Taylor's extending a hand and cooing, "I'm hoping by chance/You might take this dance". A lopsided sort of Lothario, but he's all heart.
Those Dancing Days, Hitten (Wichita)
Indie used to be a comfortable hidey-hole for society's forever infantile, where you could grow old without ever having to give up your schoolboy satchel or polka-dot dress. Now it's more like a plimsoll-clad Battle Royale where each generation of talent is routinely culled by a younger, more infuriatingly adorable wave of cutie-pie tunemongers. Those Dancing Days are five schoolgirls from Stockholm, and Hitten is an intoxicating whoosh of Blondie and the Cocteau Twins that fills you with equal parts innocent joy and fist-chewing old codger envy.
Kelly Rowland, Work (RCA)
Less remains more in American R&B, where it seems acceptable to build an entire backing track out of the occasional string stab and some studio hand thwacking a biscuit tin. Reason for this, presumably, is that it gives your identikit diva a whole lot of room to do her ghetto yodelling. But if the defining feature of Kelly Rowland's solo career so far is that she's not Beyoncé, Work uses low-key to its advantage, lean vocals and vaguely threatening come-hithers that leave the competition looking about as subtle as a plastic surgery accident.
Richard Hawley, Valentine (Mute)
Should any record company want to piece together a compilation called Songs To Sing While Extremely Pissed, Valentine will be in there like a shot. Erstwhile guitarist for Pulp, Hawley's since reinvented himself as a postmodern Roy Orbison, blubbing his way through Valentine with one eye on the canon of sad balladeers and the other on his heart, right there on the floor, where you ripped it out. Hawley's got the vox, but it's hard to shake the feeling this is just Stars In Their Eyes for the Jools Holland set.
Avenged Sevenfold, Afterlife (Warner Brothers)
One consequence of getting Guitar Hero 3 for Christmas is that it's now extremely hard to listen to metal without envisaging brightly coloured blobs whizzing vertically through your vision. This may, however, be the only way to glean any enjoyment from Afterlife. The main problem with this mulch of lumpy thrash and pseudo-profound lyrics about "choking on this ecstasy" (snigger) is not that it is ludicrous, but that it is actually just emo with extra guitar widdle, and consequently, nowhere near ludicrous enough.

Knight Rider was a US science-fiction action show created by Glen A Larson for NBC. It ran for four seasons, plus a TV movie, Knight Rider 2000. It spawned three spin-offs, Code of Vengeance, Team Knight Rider and Knight Rider (2008).
Series summaryEdit
Self-made billionaire Wilton Knight rescues police detective Michael Long (David Hasselhoff) after a near- fatal shot to the face, giving him a new identity (via plastic surgery) and a new name: Michael Knight. Wilton hires Michael as the primary field agent in his privately funded crime-fighting organisation, the Foundation for Law and Government (FLAG). Michael is partnered up with KITT, a heavily modified, artificially intelligent Pontiac Trans Am with gadgets that can be used to fight crime.
Westphall connections in Knight RiderEdit
- In the Star Trek episode "The Changeling", Kirk and the crew have to deal with Nomad, a space probe from the 21st century created by artificial intelligence pioneer Dr Jackson Roykirk. Dr Roykirk subsequently appeared as a character in the Team Knight Rider episode "Apocalypse Maybe".
- Code of Vengeance was a spin-off from Knight Rider that ran for five episodes, including a TV-movie pilot.
- Team Knight Rider was created as a continuation of Knight Rider; in the final episode, Michael Knight, the protagonist from the original series, appears, viewed from behind.
- A 2008 version of Knight Rider attempted to return the brand to TV, but was swiftly cancelled.

Should I or would it be weird
I have a crush so bad and I won free tickets to her favourite band should I ask her out to. the concert?
Have an opinion?
What Girls Said 1
Well, if you don't know her and just randomly invite her, it might be a little weird. But if you're already friends, I'd say it's fine.11|00|0
Yea we are friends
- Show AllShow Less
Why don't you tell her after the concert? She'd be in a really good mood then and you'd have spent quite a bit of time together sharing a common interest so it'd be a good time.
