And the prize for sorest loser goes to... Huey Morgan

Muhammad Ali once said "No one knows what to say in the loser's locker room," but Huey Morgan, BBC 6 Music host and former Fun Lovin' Criminals frontman, had plenty to say when he lost out in the Music Radio Personality of the Year category at the Sony Awards.

DVD: What's Your Number? (15)

This is horrible, just horrible. Anna Faris, who showed comic potential in the lousy Scary Movie series, plays Ally Darling, a young woman who is unlucky in relationships and has been dumped from her job.

DVD: Captain America – The First Avenger, For retail & rental (Paramount)

The nice thing about Captain America is that, unlike most superhero movies, it's set during the Second World War, and it's true to the two-fisted, square-jawed spirit of a 1940s Saturday matinee serial.

DVD: Captain America: The First Avenger (12)

Not quite as fun or droll as Kenneth Branagh's Thor but a lot better than the woeful Green Lantern, Captain America is a middling Marvel adaptation, which starts nicely but flags (the lengthy action scenes mainly) half-way through.

Starring: Anna Faris, Chris Evans, Blythe Danner

Teaching English as a foreign language can lead to a gap-year experience that lasts a lifetime

Forget about speed dating. Those looking for love could do worse than sign up for a Teaching English as a Foreign Language (TEFL) course. "We're calling it the China love affair," jokes Vicky Cunningham, senior marketing officer for Bunac, a gap-year provider offering work, teaching and volunteering experiences abroad. "A guy and a girl have just come back from our six-month China programme, doing teaching internships. They met out there and fell head over heels. The girl has now decided to pursue a career in teaching, too, so she's found love and a career off the back of it."

The Place Prize for Dance, The Place, London

The Place Prize for Dance, which was founded in 2004, is unpredictable without being exciting. Unusually, it's a commissioning prize: 16 semi-finalists are chosen to create new works. Sponsored by Bloomberg, the prize offers £25,000 to the main winner, plus an audience prize of £1,000, awarded at each of the 10 finals performances. As a system, it does support new creations, but what goes into the final is the best of a small pool. The finalists tend to be choreographers who have begun to make names for themselves: it's neither the shock of the new nor the stars of the field.

Evans late for radio show

Chris Evans, the DJ, was almost half an hour late for his BBC Radio 5 Live show on Saturday night.

The Place Prize, Robin Howard Dance Theatre, London

Europe's biggest prize for choreography is judged not by a panel of experts, but by newcomers to the art form. No wonder the standard is so variable
