47 horror movies that will scare you to death - British GQ

From terrifying classics to haunting new masterpieces, here’s what to watch No horror movie is as terrifying as the experience of trying to agree on something to watch with your partner as the night draws in. Save some sympathy, however, for the main characters of our most prestige chillers, some of whom have seriously been put through the wringer. Whether it’s the story of a music festival gone seriously wrong in Ari Aster’s gaslighting saga Midsommar, or the many societal ills highlighted by J…

Herman Miller Aeron review: Iconic for a reason - British GQ

In a sense, the Covid pandemic sent the world to its room to think about what it had done. Away from the whirligig distractions of normality, the past year has been a time for contemplation: about life choices, about the importance of friends and family, about – you know – what really matters. But we haven’t pondered only the profound questions, we’ve also taken stock of the smaller things. Is it time to shed some weight? Is your career where you hoped it would be? Is the house in need of renova…

Youth poet laureate Amanda Gorman is the voice of a new American er...

WH Auden wrote that “poetry makes nothing happen”. Well, it has certainly made Amanda Gorman happen. After reading “The Hill We Climb” at Joe Biden’s inauguration in January, the 22-year-old claimed bestseller spots for three books that hadn’t come out yet. There’s this month’s special edition of The Hill We Climb with a foreword by Oprah Winfrey; then in September we’ll get Change Sings: A Children’s Anthem and The Hill We Climb And Other Poems. Her publisher will print a million copies of each…

The TAG Heuer Carrera Chronograph is a dressy refresh of a classic ...

In his autobiography The Times Of My Life, TAG Heuer’s former CEO Jack Heuer recalls his aesthetic education. “During my student years I had become a great lover of modern design,” he writes. “I loved all the furniture designed by Le Corbusier and Charles Eames. Amongst architects, I was a great fan of Eero Saarinen and Oscar Niemeyer. As a student I even managed to save enough money to buy a Charles Eames lounge chair, although it did look a bit out of place when I put it in my rather shabby st…

50 best Bob Dylan songs: From Desolation Row to Jokerman - British GQ

Whole books have been written about individual Bob Dylan tracks; by the same token, in a three-stanza song he can encapsulate the narrative arc of an entire novel. Kenneth Clark defined Shakespeare’s genius as “his freedom of mind, his power of self-identification… his complete lack of any dogma”. We’d argue that Dylan continues to bedazzle, bemuse and blow us away for the same reason – and it’s what makes his songs uniquely vulnerable to interrogation. “Blowin’ In The Wind”, “Subterranean Homes…

Quantum technology: How China is outstripping the rest of the world...

China has announced three things in recent years that have largely escaped mainstream attention but should have you worried. The first came in June 2017, when the Chinese Academy Of Sciences revealed it had developed a highly sensitive – possibly the world’s most sensitive – magnetometer. Analysts were quick to note this means China is in possession of the longest-range submarine detector ever developed. The second troubling revelation came two months later. The Xinhua state news agency claimed…

Esports are muscling in - but is it a bubble? | British GQ - Britis...

Here’s an unscientific hypothesis: if you’re over the age of 30, you’ve probably heard about esports – competitive video gaming usually for a cash prize – but you haven’t appreciated how big a deal it is. The numbers tell quite a story. The market intelligence company Newzoo estimates that the global esports audience will hit 380 million people in 2018, producing total revenues of £700m, an increase of 38 per cent year on year. And the momentum is only picking up. Last December, the world’s firs…

Inside the Tudor watch factory | British GQ - British GQ

The Rolex building in Geneva might be clad in glass, but don’t be deceived: it’s a fortress. The watch brand and its sibling company, Tudor, which is also headquartered here, are notoriously secretive. Details about their manufacturing operations are scant; their finances are a private matter; and future launches are kept ruthlessly under wraps. The mystique only adds to their allure. Today, however, Tudor has invited GQ inside its section of the campus to see how it designs, tests and assembles…

The Circle finale made one massive mistake - British GQ

Channel 4’s The Circle is a reality TV show about people sending text messages to each other. I agree there’s not a lot to love in that sentence. But three weeks ago, against my better judgment, I watched an episode and I got hooked. See, the show’s premise – 15 contestants siloed in separate apartments within the same block, only allowed to communicate via the show’s own social media software and periodically rating each other to decide who gets booted off – played out in morbidly fascinating w…
