Asked how they came to be in the film, Dick explained that they were phoned by the producer who said "We need two mad crazy fools to play game show hosts for our new movie...and it sounded like us!" When questioned about what was the best thing about working in children's TV Dom answered "It's like living, and working, in a fantasy world...it's sooo much fun to be in." They also had good advice for local children keen to make it as presenters; "Be determined, be slightly quirky and unique so that you stand out from the rest."

Highcliffe Castle Launches Its Summer Exhibition As tradition dictates, Highcliffe Castle will be holding their annual in-house historical exhibition this summer in the main Library Gallery. Each year, the Castle writes and produces their own exhibition, showcasing an interesting subject from the Castle’s history. This year, the subject is “How The Other Half Lived”, a fascinating look at country house life in the early Twentieth Century. Highcliffe Castle is a classic example of an English Country House. Built in the 1830s as a rural retreat for Lord Stuart de Rothesay it was during the first half of the Twentieth Century that it really saw its heyday as a venue for country house parties for members of High Society. In 1891 the Castle passed into the ownership of Edward Stuart Wortley (a d istan t relati ve of th e Stu art d e Rothesays). In this exhibition we will look at the family, the wealthy people that rented the Castle and their famous guests. During this time the Castle was used for shooting parties, magnificent balls and for convalescing. We will also take a look at how the other half lived by looking at the servants lives in th e Ca stl e at th i s t im e. F ro m housemaids to cooks and gardeners, a dedicated team of staff were required to run the Castle and provide for its important guests. By the middle of the Twentieth century life in the English Country House was in decline. With fewer people in service and
CD August 2011 page 22
rising maintenance costs grand houses across the country were in trouble. Here we see that the Castle was no exception. Anna Burgess, Events & Exhibitions Officer says: “We will be recreating room displays from upstairs and downstairs in the Castle, as well as bringing the stories to life in pictures and words. Although Highcliffe Castle no longer has it’s rich interiors on display, this is the perfect opportunity to see how the building may have looked during its time as a private home”. The exhibition runs from the 23rd July to the 11th September from 11am each day. Admission charges for the Castle are £2.95 for adults with children under 16 free. For more information on events and exhibitions at Highcliffe Castle visit www.highcliffecastle.co.uk, or telephone 01425 278807.

VULCAN EFFECT SPREADS TO A SECOND DISPLAY Avro Vulcan confirmed for second Festival appearance Bournemouth Air Festival organisers have confirmed that the mighty Avro Vulcan will now be able to display twice thanks to the support of S&D Leisure, who are supporting Saturday’s display, and Bournemouth Airport, the appearance supporter for Sunday.
Jon Weaver, Bournemouth Air Festival director says; “What a great addition to an already great flying programme. We’re so pleased to have the Vulcan for a second display, so a big thank you to S&D Leisure and Bournemouth Airport for their generous contribution.”
Stanley Reeves, owner of S&D Leisure said; “We’re proud to support the Vulcan display on Saturday where she’ll be joining the Red Arrows and Tornado Role Demo for what I’m sure will be another great Festival ‘power hour’. It’s certainly going to get loud!”
The Bournemouth Air Festival will be taking place at Bournemouth seafront on August 18th to the 21st and boasts a line up that includes the Red Arrows and The Battle of Britain Memorial Flight.
Sally Windsor from Bournemouth Airport said; “The Vulcan is such a tremendous crowd-puller at every event she displays at, so the opportunity to bring her to Bournemouth was too tempting to pass up.” The imposing bomber is operated by the Vulcan to the Sky Trust, who are delighted at the opportunity to display a second time. CEO of the Trust Dr Robert Pleming said; “We have always said that Bournemouth is a real highlight for us. The flight path along the beach is glorious, the huge crowds very enthusiastic and the reception to the Vulcan is always extremely warm, so we’re very grateful to S&D Leisure for allowing us to extend the Vulcan effect to a second display”.

On Monday 5 September at 7pm in the Studio, there will be a chance for cineastes, movie moguls, film fiends and silver screen searchers to shine at the Regent Centre 80th Anniversary Film Quiz.

Entry to these will be just 80 Pence per feature film – that’s just 1 pence per year of the Regent! On Saturday 10 September at 10.30am the Regent will be showing one of the best British films of the 1930s, The 39 Steps (1935) (U). This is Alfred Hitchcock’s brilliant adaptation of John Buchan’s gripping thriller, in which Robert Donat finds himself pursued by the police from London to the Highlands of Scotland for a murder he did not commit. The 39 Steps will be shown with two animated shorts: The Cat Concerto (1947) (U), which won Tom & Jerry the Oscar for Best Short Film and One Froggy Evening (1955) (U), a Warner Looney Tunes classic about a singing frog. On Sunday 11 September at 2.30pm there will be a chance to see what was almost certainly the first winner of the Best Film Oscar ever to be shown at the Regent. Grand Hotel (1932) (U) stars Greta Garbo, Joan Crawford, Lionel Barrymore and John Barrymore. On Sunday 11 September at 7.30pm, the ultimate Busby Berkeley musical, 42nd Street (1933) (U), gets a welcome revival at the

Regent, starring Ginger Rogers, Ruby Keeler, Bebe Daniels and Dick Powell. This film is full of show stopping choreography and songs. On Saturday 10 September at 1.30pm it will be eyes down for a full house as Bingo returns to the Regent for the first time since February 1982, the year that Mecca finally left Christchurch and closed the Regent. Then on Saturday 10 September at 7.30pm, Regent Rep present 80 Years of Musical Theatre at the Regent. A galaxy of stars from groups such as Highcliffe Charity Players, Milton Musical Society and Theatre 2000 will perform songs from Broadway hits and West End award winners to bring those memories flooding back. Everyone is welcome to join The Family Church on Sunday 11 September 10.30am for their weekly service, which is always informal and fun. The 200 strong Family Church has made the Regent their home and meet every Sunday throughout the year at 10.30am. The Regent is 80 years young this year and looking forward to a bright future as the hub of entertainment in the Borough. The new What’s On brochure covering July – November is now out, so do pop in to the Regent to pick one up and see the full line-up of attractions for the Summer and Autumn 2011.
