| | Sir Francis Drake |
 | | Drake then took two of the pinnaces and raided a small Spanish settlement east of Cartagena, where he made off with enough livestock, wine, cheese, maize, sugar and other edibles to keep his men well fed for months. | | | During that autumn of 1572 Drake and a party of men made another voyage to the Cartagena area, where they captured some small ships and more supplies. | | | The English, who were small in number, used drums, trumpets, and flaming firepikes to raise a stir and give them the appearance of a much larger party. |

| | In creating Drake, the company's first title for publisher, Majesco, Idol is throwing together Hong Kong martial arts movies, tons of gunplay and a cel-shaded comic book look together into one pot that you get to stir. | | | Put it this way, there's a reason he's running around in a long black leather coat with his chest tattoo showing and it ends up being one of the cooler parts of the game. | | | Drake also has "Freeze Time" and "Slow Time" available on the same button that will deliver that beloved "Bullet Time" experience that made Max Payne and Enter the Matrix such big hits. |

| | Their daughter Ethel (Alex Kelly) is painfully shy, and there is a sweet, tactful subplot in which Vera invites a lonely, tongue-tied bachelor named Reg (Eddie Marson) over for tea and essentially arranges a marriage. | | | "Vera Drake" is not so much pro or anti-abortion as it is opposed to laws which do little to eliminate abortion but much to make it dangerous for poor people. | | | Leigh's point is that those with 100 pounds could legally obtain an abortion in England in 1950, and those with two pounds had to depend on Vera Drake, or on women not nearly as nice as Vera Drake. |
