Hello there and welcome the last edition of the Levy Letter for this week. Its Friday today and I honestly dont think it could have come quicker. It seems that everyone around us is looking forward to the Christmas break that the days just seem to blur into one. Have you got anything planned for the weekend? Or are you just going to take the time to buy last minute Christmas presents? Good Luck if you are attempting it this weekend!!
Burger Scent Ive heard today that the American fast food chain Burger King is marketing a mens fragrance with the scent of meat. The fragrance is called Flame and the company says the spray is the scent of seduction with a hint of flame-broiled meat. If you fancy buying it, it is available in New York for $3.99 (£2.65). Bargain! Weekend Telly Well with The X Factor over for another year, focus returns to Strictly Come Dancing this weekend, with the live final on the screens this Saturday. Tune in at 6.40pm for the final and the results show at 9.00pm. Rachel and Vincent will perform the Rumba and a Foxtrot. Tom and Camilla will perform their version of the Foxtrot and the Salsa and Lisa and Brendon will perform their Foxtrot and their top scoring Cha Cha. If the contenders make it into the final two they will perform a group Viennese Waltz with the other finalists and a show dance. If you are all partied out with pre-Christmas festivities and just fancy relaxing in front of the box this weekend then it is the last in the current series of Have I Got News For You this evening. The guest presenter tonight is Jeremy Clarkson. BBC One are continuing with the comedy with the second series of Gavin and Stacey at 9.30pm. If your children are a fan of the Jacqueline Wilson novels then you may want to settle down! on Sunday afternoon to the adaptation Dustbin Baby on BBC One at 3.25pm. The story follows young April who sets out to discover her origins and along the way, discovers where she belongs. If you are a fan of Lark Rise to Candleford tune in this Sunday for the first episode of the second series at 7.45pm. iPlayer News Now if you have a Mac or a Linux computer, I have some good news for you. Ive been reading today that the BBC has created a version of the iPlayer which will work on both systems. The two systems have been able to stream BBC programmes for a year, but now will be able to handle downloads. The BBC has been working with Adobe and developed a new version known as BBC iPlayer Desktop. Those who want to try the new player must first install Adobe AIR and then get the trial version by signing up to be an iPlayer Labs tester, via the iPlayer site. I do hope you will join me for Look North tonight on BBC One at 6.30pm. If you cant wait that long, join me for my radio show on BBC Radio Humberside between 12pm and 2pm. I will be chatting to Esther Rantzen about her time in the jungle. If you miss it live you can always listen again at bbc.co.uk/humberside . Thats all from me today and indeed this year I will be back again on January 2nd. This means there wont be a letter for a couple of weeks and Ill be back with the next Levy Letter in the New Year. I do wish you a very Happy Christmas and look forward to being back with you again very soon.
