When you open those curtains and there seems to be a leak in the sky, it’s time to get those stretchy pants on and chill at home. Let Vicky show you how to slouch with the best of the recent releases:
Get some snacks, sit back and relax with a…
1) DVD: 
Hot Fuzz. If you loved Shaun of the Dead then Hot Fuzz is for you, it's another essential piece of British comedy this time poking fun at the cop movie genre.
Simon Pegg plays Nick Angel a police officer who is so good at his job that he makes everyone else look bad. So instead of being praised for his efforts, Angel is sent packing to a West Country village where a swan escaping from the local park is classed as some serious action. He is paired up with excitable, action-movie junkie constable Danny Butterman (Nick Frost). He sees Angel as a chance to see some real gun-blazin’ action, except nothing seems to happen in Sanford, or does it? A series of surprisingly gory deaths leads Angel to believe this quiet town may not be so quiet after all, it might just be time for these cops to get their guns out...
2) Busy yourself with a book:
For the ladies – If your feeling sorry for yourself because your stuck indoors then A Piece Of Cake by Cupcake Brown will make you grateful for your situation.
Cupcake turned her life around and this is her brutally frank, startlingly funny story. Unlike any memoir you will ever read, A Piece of Cake is a redemptive, gripping tale of a resilient spirit who took on the worst of contemporary urban life and survived it. It is also the most genuinely affecting rollercoaster ride through hell and back that you will ever take.
For the fellas – A Spot Of Bother by Mark Haddon. Like a lot of guys out there George Hall doesn't understand the modern obsession with talking about everything. This is the kind of book that you will want to read out loud to whoever is around at the time, if you're at home with your partner then fine, but try not to do this when your on the tube – mind you the crazy man on the tube does get the pick of seats.
3) Time for some tunes:
Depending on your mood, Maroon 5 – It won’t be soon before long could be your new CD to do your dusting to or you could pop Calvin Harris – I created disco into your CD player and dance around your living room like a crazy person with a hair brush in one hand and the words in the other. You're in the comfort of your own home so why not? Go I on, I dare you.
4) Bring on the games:
We all know old school's cool, so why don’t you get that dusty guess who game down from the attic? Or if you need a little more technology then why not look daft with your family and friends and have a play with a Wii, you can look ridiculous and have a bit of a work out at home rather than the gym.
