Even if Liam does end up married to Hope again, please say Steffy remains faithful to Liam and that in the end they become a family again with their sweet little daughter! Also please let Steffy’s parents, Ridge and Taylor, keep fighting for their daughter’s marriage. However, I must admit the marriages on this show are ridiculous . Eric, Ridge, Brooke and Bill etc. Bill, for a start, is with the “true” love of his life every five minutes. Please let there be at least one couple that stays…

The flick, starring Emily Mortimer, Bill Nighy and Patricia Clarkson, tells of events in a staid coastal town in England where a woman fulfils her dream of opening a bookshop.

Portaferry, about an hour’s drive from the capital Belfast, is a good-looking gem famed as a fishing village and for its grand Georgian buildings. Standing guard over the town is the sentinel-like 16th century Portaferry Castle, which also overlooks the sprawling Strangford Lough waterway.…
