She's a lawyer who has to attend this progressive Victorian dinner with her friend and co-worker Chloe. It's not great. Her dress rips, her hat falls in the fire, it's a whole thing. Zara is quite smitten by the owner of the estate, Rafe. Rafe tells everyone about a sneaky little ghost that lives at the estate. Chloe sees the ghost. She's a believer. She also sees that Zara and Rafe are into each other. The next day, Zara finds one of the books from the estate in her bag with Rafe's business card in it. She assumes it's just silly Chloe but it was actually the ghost. But good thing the ghost is sneaky like that because Zara has a water pipe leak in her living room and needs someone to come repair it. Naturally, she calls Rafe who helps renovate houses and he comes over to take a look. He comes over and gets right to work. The ghost keeps doing stuff that forces Zara to call Rafe. And she starts showing up to Rafe's son's hockey practices. They're all getting attached. Zara and Rafe almost kiss TWICE - interrupted once by the smell of smoke, and the second time by a text. CLASSSIC. Everything is going great until the snowball fight. She gets really upset when Rafe's son throws a snowball at her. Turns out, her brother used to throw snowballs.

Eternals (LIVE from Bramble Fest 2026)
It's Marvel Monday and we're meeting the Eternals! ABOUT ETERNALS The saga of the Eternals, a race of immortal beings who lived on Earth and shaped its history and civilizations. AIR DATE & NETWORK FOR ETERNALS November 5, 2021 | Theatrical Release CAST & CREW OF ETERNALS Director: Chloé Zhao Writers: Chloé Zhao, Patrick Burleigh, Ryan Firpo Cast: Gemma Chan as Sersi Richard Madden as Ikaris Angelina Jolie as Thena Salma Hayek as Ajak Kit Harington as Dane Whitman Kumail Nanjiani as Kingo Lia McHugh as Sprite Brian Tyree Henry as Phastos Lauren Ridloff as Makkari Barry Keoghan as Druig Ma Dong-seok as Gilgamesh Harish Patel as Karun Bill Skarsgård as Kro Harry Styles as Eros BRAN'S MOVIE SYNOPSIS This movie starts off with too many words. But no fun music like Star Wars, so I didn't read it. Cut to a triangle flying close to something that looks like the sun. Inside, these folks in funny robes stand back against a wall when a voice says it is time. This gold stuff turns into their suits. Apparently they don't know each other. It's 5000 BC in Mesopotamia and a crazy sea monster eats this kid's dad. Suddenly, this superhero flies in and takes that monster down. We see the other heroes take down other monsters. We got a group of 10 superheroes on our hands. They stand in V formation and wait for the people to thank them. One of the heroes leans down and hands a kid a knife. Here's who we have: Ikaris: basically Superman Sersi: can like mess with matter Thena: creates a weapon out of pure cosmic energy Kingo: laser fingers Phastos: creates advanced weapons and technology Makkari: basically the Flash Druig: mind control Gilgamesh: Hulk but not green Sprite: can change the appearance of things and appears as a child Ajak: the spiritual leader and healer who serves as the primary communicator with their Celestial creator Cut to present day and that knife is in a museum as an artifact that shaped history. The Eternals are still alive, cuz they're eternal. Sersi and Sprite live together in London. Ikaris left her without explanation centuries earlier. She's moved on and is now in a relationship with human Dane. When the trio is attacked by a monster like in the beginning. They're called Deviants. Ikaris arrives just in time to save the day. The Eternals were under the assumption there were no more Deviants. Which is why the Eternals haven't been in action for the past 500 years. We see a flashback of when Sersi and Ikaris got together…and I mean got together. #NotMyMarvel. They end up getting married. Back in the present, the 3 Eternals make it to South Dakota expecting to meet up with Ajak, only to find her dead. So it's time to get the band back together to figure out what to do next. Sersi is the new leader and meets with Arishem - the Celestial that sent the Eternals to Earth. Sersi learns that the Eternals' mission was actually to prepare Earth for the Emergence of a new Celestial. See, for millions of years, he has been planting Celestial seeds inside planets where the energy from large populations allows new Celestials to be born. The Deviants were sent to destroy the apex predators of each planet to ensure the development of intelligent life, but the Deviants evolved and started eating said intelligent life. So he created the Eternals to fight them. Now that the population of humans has reached the necessary size to allow the new Celestial to be born, Earth will be no more. Sersi doesn't love this and tells everyone else. Everyone is down to stop the plan. Everyone except for Ikaris. We find out that Ajak wanted to stop the Emergence and save humanity, so he led her to the Deviants and allowed them to kill her. Sprite joins Ikaris cuz she's in love with Ikaris while Kingo chooses to leave, agreeing with Ikaris but not wanting to hurt his friends.

Diana and Ken have very different approaches to their music classes - Diana is all about music education while Ken is all about just experimenting with music, such as doing a drum circle.

A Christmas Snowed in with a Prince (LIVE from Bramble Fest 2026)
It's time for another truly insane Festive Friday movie! ABOUT A CHRISTMAS SNOWED IN WITH A PRINCE During a freak blizzard, a remote British lodge is shut down with just two guests: Ellie, a sarcastic travel blogger, and a handsome, overly polite guest who's definitely not from around here. Turns out, he's Prince Alaric, stranded while trying to escape royal duties. With only each other and no Wi-Fi, sparks (and snowballs) fly. AIR DATE & NETWORK FOR A CHRISTMAS SNOWED IN WITH A PRINCE December 8, 2025 | Streaming CAST & CREW OF A CHRISTMAS SNOWED IN WITH A PRINCE Director: E J Marshall Writer: Craig McLearie Cast: Faith Kiggundu as Ellie Christian Ndonda as Prince Alaric BRAN'S MOVIE SYNOPSIS This movie is 1hr and 11 minutes and you'd think that would mean they'd get right to it. Wrong!! We see scenery for a while. Suddenly, we're in the woods. We meet Ellie. She's a travel blogger who is trying to find this remote lodge. She walks around in the woods for a longgg time, saying things like "oh no" and looking at a map. She finally finds a lodge and when she walks in, she sees a guy. He's very confused by this check in book thing. So she helps him. His name is Alaric. When the lodge owner shows up, she assumes they're together. Ellie explains she's trying to find the wellness retreat. Turns out she's way lost and with the big storm hitting, she's gonna have to stay the night. The internet is down so she has to pay cash for the room which she doesn't have, so Alaric pays for her room. She's very annoyed by Alaric but when he says he doesn't know how to cook, she offers to make them dinner. They eat and talk. He doesn't know what a blog is. It's a whole thing. Suddenly, another couple shows up. They met at the lodge decades ago and come every year. But the lodge has slowly become less popular. They decide to all decorate the lodge together. Martha shows back up for some reason. She's grumpy. The next morning, Alaric tries to make breakfast and it's an absolute disaster. Ellie comes in and is both horrified and charmed. She encourages him to loosen up with the way he talks. But they're having a good time hanging out. She tries to get to know him more - where he's from, why he talks this way, etc. He's not having it. He thinks she's gonna use it in one of her stories. So they get in a snowball fight. He opens up about his troubles with his family. They don't see eye to eye. They all sit down to eat together but first, Christmas crackers. In his cracker is a paper crown which makes him real upset and he storms off. She goes to calm him down and tells him how nice this trip has been because of him. He finally tells her that he is a Prince, but he doesn't want to be. She agrees to keep his secret. Later that night, they talk some more and end up kissing big ones under the mistletoe. The next day, THEY FOUND ALARIC! Ellie wants to go with him but he says it won't be safe. He says his goodbyes and leaves. Ellie is finally able to make it home. She's feeling sad, so she goes onto her blog to read some good comments and respond to some comments about how amazing she is. She starts to write blogs called The Prince and the Nobody. And it starts blowing up. She gets a call from a publisher who wants to publish a book version. I'm unsure of the timeline but it seems like the book comes out and it's a smash hit. She wants to go back to the lodge to have a book reading. Alaric shows up and tells her that he's denounced his title and wants to be with her. They kiss and decide to spend Christmas together at the lodge.
