Alice Levine is one of the most in-demand broadcasters in the UK today. Working across TV, Radio and Comedy as a presenter, she also writes and produces her own projects. Her career has gone from strength to strength since her break on MTV hosting her own chat show in 2011. Only months later she was chosen to present Big Brother's spin-off show, Bit On The Side (Channel 5), which she continued to do for the next 3 years, honing her craft as a live presenter. Since then, she has become the go-to for sophisticated, smart television, particularly live, across all major networks; fronting everything from the Brit Awards 2017: Red Carpet (ITV2), Glastonbury (BBC) to the Mercury Music Prize (Channel 4) and the backstage coverage of the BAFTA TV & Craft Awards. Most recently, Alice has been exploring investigative documentaries, with the BBC commissioning her three part series on modern romance, Levine On Love, with another series slated. She will also be making a very exciting immersive documentary for one of the major channels next year. In Radio, Alice has made a name for herself hosting some of the most prestigious shows. Starting off at BBC Radio 1 on the new music "John Peel" slot (week nights 10pm - midnight), she now has her own show on weekends from 1pm-4pm, for which she won the Best Radio Show accolade at the Music Week Awards. Comedy has always been a passion for Alice, marked by appearances on 8 Out Of 10 Cats, Never Mind The Buzzcocks, Newsjack, As Yet Untitled and Qi. It therefore came as no surprise that her comedy podcast would be a huge success. No one could have predicted the reaction to My Dad Wrote A Porno though, which she co-hosts and co-produces. The number 1 podcast has racked up over 80 million listens, a live stage show spin off which tours internationally (The Sydney Opera House didn't know what hit it!), a best-selling book and legions of celebrity fans. Series 4 will be released in 2018, and TV, motion picture and stage adaptations are all being developed. In addition to her broadcast work, Alice co-founded a successful food and lifestyle brand, Jackson&Levine, with partner Laura Jackson. As a pair they are the food columnists for Marie Claire and have just published their first book.

Most data and links to images for the Movies section come from TheMovieDB (TMDB).
Additional data for Film Titles come from The Open Movie Database (OMDb).
At least one plug-in comes from IMDb.
Data are -- hey, it's a plural -- subject to the limitations of their sources. (For example, TMDB search results currently max out at 20.) I am limiting myself to free data sources for now. (No, a "free trial" is not free.)
While much of the above data are retrieved directly from outside APIs and other such sources, data from American Film Institute (AFI) and British Film Institute (BFI) were manually entered the old fashioned way into a MySQL database. Re BFI I took the following liberties:
Regarding profile removals and data corrections:
Filtering is applied here to film projects flagged as "adult" by TheMovieDB. Pending "popular demand" I am contemplating a login and profile system with preferences (such as whether to allow adult images to appear) and permissions (such as data entry).
Whereas the overall purpose of this website is to serve as a personal demo/portfolio/workshop of web and data skills, this Movies section is not meant to compete with or substitute for far more definitive movie websites.
Whether or not he still clings to an award which he won in 1986 as a film critic for his college's newspaper, Jeffrey Hartmann is not responsible for the texts of overviews and biographies supplied by external data sources.
