As Winter approaches, what better way to have fun than relaxing at home or on the road with great music and some decent English language comedy? The Budapest Syndrome is broadcast every 2 weeks on Sundays and offers a mix of new and old Indie Music with plenty of chat, comedy and banter in English amongst the panel of regular presenters and guests. After a recent switch of radio stations and a slight name-change, the show remains the most successful and popular English entertainment show on Hungarian radio. Listeners are also encouraged to join in and contribute to the live show via an online chat-room and emails. You can also text in on +36 70 296 1567. Listen here.

Formed in Brighton in 1988, English folk punk legends The Levellers are still going strong and recently released a Live at The Royal Albert Hall CD, and a new studio album, Letters From the Underground. This show forms part of their current European and UK tour. Take yourself back to muddy 1990's festivals on the MySpace here and website here.

Isis & Transitional (Concert)
Diesel, 19:00, 6,000ft, 4,800ft in advance
Another expensive one at Diesel. Isis, from Los Angeles, provide pretty decent rock while Transitional, from the UK, try and vary things with a bit of electronica along with the metal. Isis MySpace here, Transitional are here.

Julie and Julia (Film)
All manner of Palace Cinemas: times here
On a rainy Sunday night (probably), try a trip to the cinema! Meryl Streep and Amy Adams take the leads in this unusual biopic of American TV chef, Julia Child and the modern blogger who wrote about her recipes. Director Nora Ephron has turned an unusual and challenging scenario in to a highly watchable film, which has been very well received by most critics. Reviews here.
