By the way, that doesn't mean I don't like or even love those photos (although not Titanic), which makes me wish the iceberg would strike a bit sooner). Here is a list of the Top 20 movies you should have included in my Top 100 list, as well as your reasons for...

A Mail on Sunday investigation indicates that a communist spy tried to use 'queen of skincare' Eve Lom to assault Princess Diana and infiltrate the Royal Family. According to declassified state security archives, the Czechoslovakian agent used diplomatic cover to contact Mrs Lom in the hopes of gaining access to her important clients. Mrs Lom ran a profitable London salon that was frequented by the wealthy and famous at the time, and she was on her way to convert her skincare company into a cosmetics behemoth.
