Your support helps us to tell the story
From reproductive rights to climate change to Big Tech, The Independent is on the ground when the story is developing. Whether it's investigating the financials of Elon Musk's pro-Trump PAC or producing our latest documentary, 'The A Word', which shines a light on the American women fighting for reproductive rights, we know how important it is to parse out the facts from the messaging.
At such a critical moment in US history, we need reporters on the ground. Your donation allows us to keep sending journalists to speak to both sides of the story.
The Independent is trusted by Americans across the entire political spectrum. And unlike many other quality news outlets, we choose not to lock Americans out of our reporting and analysis with paywalls. We believe quality journalism should be available to everyone, paid for by those who can afford it.
Your support makes all the difference.This is woeful even by the very low standards of British romantic comedy. Former investment banker David Raymond stars in his own script as a young entrepreneur who opens a detective agency with his mates, its chief purpose being to target infidelity. He makes a fortune from it, only to discover that his own parents' marriage has been clouded by suspicions of betrayal. One can only assume that Raymond's own money bankrolled this: who else would back a romcom vanity project in which the comedy has no laughs and the romance no life? The acting exists on a quite startling level of awfulness (I except History Boy James Corden), every possible inflection and nuance flattened by galumphing overemphasis; director Selwyn Roberts hands out to his cast all the rope necessary.
