It is time for this weeks movie review with Andres Clemente. Not impressed! Hotel Transylvania 3, ” Hard to review a film, that’s clearly intended for the “12 or younger” demographic, but really great animated films tell a story worth watching regardless of age, (look no further than my review of The Incredibles 2 from a couple of weeks ago) So… had very low expectations going in, and sad to say movie met them completely. Standout animation from a tired franchise will not make a good film.”


In the last hour I am joined by Alison Cross and Jose Benitez from the British Embassy, our topic, the incentive being undertaken by the embassy to get rid of single use plastics. Such items as disposable cups, straws, polystyrene food containers etc etc. We talk about to initiatives from UK companies, and also how Panama is reacting to what is a worldwide problem.
