It was not so long ago that we were writing about Australian director Stuart Willis' crowd funding campaign to support his science fiction mini series Restoration. Well, after a successful campaign the footage is now in the can, the show in post production, and we've got the first two images to share with you here at Twitch.2019. A company - Restoration Life Services - offers individuals the service of having their memories downloaded for backup. So, in the event of death, those memories can be uploaded into a new body, a generic host, nicknamed a "jerry".

If you are looking for a place to impress a date, well then Gordon Ramsay at The London West Hollywood, may be the perfect ticket to get you laid. The ambiance inside The London’s premiere restaurant is sophisticated, romantic, and guaranteed to get you in the mood. The interior, designed by David Collins, fuses old Hollywood with modern design. From the sumptuous food, a mix between Western European and Asian influences, to stunning plating and the luscious decor, the whole place is just plain sexy – especially if you get a spacious corner both and have a good looking man by your side (as I did). Let’s be honest, this place is guaranteed to drop some panties* – and judging by some of the older men with young bleach blondes flanking them, I wasn’t the only one who thought so.
The London has also proved to be a hotspot for celebrity couples like Javier Bardem and Penelope Cruz...
