TALKING POINTS Whose turn is it to tidy up?

All the fun of the festival...

If you haven’t got tickets to the extravaganza of food, music, surfing and fun that is Newquay’s Boardmasters Festival (August 6-10), we might just be able to help you out. West magazine has two VIP camping tickets to the festival to be won, thanks to the kind folk at Healey’s, who are the festival’s main cider providers. Turn to page 10 to win, not to mention finding out more about the two young brothers who have reinvented this Cornish farm cider business for the 21st century. We’ve also got a terrific interview with onetime BBC Royal Correspondent Jennie Bond, who swapped life in the fast lane for the peace of South Devon. Mind you, life in her local pub isn’t all that peaceful if Jennie’s around: she’s been known to boogie the night away with the best of them. She’s also, impressively, taken up running in later life. Turn to page 14 to find out why – and how. Meanwhile, if you are off to a party or wedding, we’ve got some great smart-but-cool looks on page 24. And on page 18 Anne Swithinbank tells us how a recent trip to France has inspired her planting choices. Congrats to Suzi Smale of Barnstaple who’s won a £50 shopping gift card for Exeter’s Princesshay - and there’s another to be won on page 9. Have a great week and good luck.

The cider boys

Sam and Joe Healey are the new generation of a cider-making dynasty in Cornwall. Their aim? To take cider out of the old-world pub and onto the beach

Healey Brothers_July20.indd 10

People

By Becky Sheaves

ho would have thought a few years back that the country’s premier surfing event – Boardmasters - would have a Westcountry cider as its official drink? But these days cider is not just about farmers getting merry after haymaking. Today’s ciders have designer bottles, crazy labels and are drunk both in nightclubs and - very much so - on the beach. Take Healey’s Cyder Farm in north Cornwall, once famed for selling old-school cider in retro flagons. Now its most visible brand is Rattler, firmly aimed at the younger generation with its rattlesnake logo and promise of ‘bite’. “Last year we sold 65,000 pints of Rattler at the Boardmasters festival, and this year we are expecting to sell even more, which is why we were so keen to be the official cider partner of the whole event,” says Joe Healey, 27. Joe’s family business has been making cider in Cornwall for the past 40 years. But now that Joe and his brother Sam, 28, have joined the firm, Healey’s is briskly widening cider’s appeal to the younger generation. “We’ve given Rattler a cool and different look and taste. It’s cloudy, tastes different and is very much created with drinking in a coastal bar, in the sunshine, in mind,” explains Joe. It’s testament to the new direction being taken by Healey’s that Joe not only studied Business Administration at university, he then went on to join a graduate trainee scheme with Coca Cola. “But it was always with the view that I would come home and join the family business,” he explains. The cider company is based six miles inland of north Cornwall’s surfing coast at Callestick. It is currently being given a major shot of youthful exuberance with the addition of Joe and Sam to the firm. Not to mention Sam’s wife Georgie, who works on the admin side and Joe’s new fiancée Lara Crouch, taking care of the company’s pub sales. It’s all a far cry from the early days of the business when parents David and Kay Healey ran an off-licence in Mevagissey. They began by selling Cornish farm cider in novelty flagons, aimed as souvenir gifts for the holiday trade. “These were so popular, that they realised there was an opportunity there,” says Joe. Joe’s parents bought the then-derelict farm in Callestick on the Cornish north coast and set up an innovative business combining cider production with tourism. These days, such a project would be fairly commonplace. Back in the 1980s it was a groundbreaking concept. “I think people were really surprised how fascinated the tourists are by visiting a farm and seeing how cider is made,” says Joe. Setting the business up was hard work, too: “My first bed was the top drawer of a chest,” says Joe. “And mum and dad are always going on about having to break the ice on the bath back in the day.” Today, visitors tour the orchards, taste the cider,

see it being made and then end their visit with time in the shop and café which are all set in a collection of converted farm buildings. “We grew up with it,” says Joe. “My childhood bedroom overlooks the farm courtyard. I was used to seeing hundreds of people milling about here all day long.” Today, more than 400,000 people a year visit Healey’s Cornish Cyder Farm. It is quite a statistic, Joe agrees. “We occasionally hear in meetings from other cider makers who might have 10,000 visitors a year. For us, that is just a single busy day in the summertime.” And at the Boardmasters festival this August, even more people will get the chance to try this special Cornish cider. “We’re expecting to sell 80,000 pints of Rattler this year, as the festival is even bigger than last year,” says Joe. “Summer is our busy time anyway – we already have orders for 13,000 barrels of draught cider for our regular pub customers, so we are pretty frantic right now. “But that is how we want it to be. Sam and I are very keen to drive the business on and make cider cool for our generatiom.” To celebrate their role as the festival’s official cider partner, Joe and Sam have kindly donated West readers the chance to win two VIP tickets plus plenty of cider (see panel opposite). The festival takes place at Newquay’s Watergate Bay from August 6-10 this summer. As well as creating the Rattler brand for the younger cider drinker, the Healey family have been hard at work securing the future of the firm. “It’s serious stuff,” admits Joe. “We’ve got to make sure that sibling disagreements can’t threaten the business, so we’ve had some really helpful consultancy with experts in how to make

a family business succeed long-term. We know our roles: Sam is more hands-on with production while I work on the marketing side.” And the older generation is by no means out of the picture, either. Dad David has been working on an innovative Cornish cider brandy, not to mention the county’s first ever single malt whiskey, created in conjunction with brewing experts at St Austell Brewery. Today, Sam and his wife live in the family home on the farm itself, in which he and Joe grew up. Meanwhile, Joe and Lara – who are getting married in September – have just bought a 200 acre farm a few miles away near Tregony. And here they are busily planting more apple trees for future cider production. “We are just preparing the ground, checking ph values for soil acidity. Then we will plant up 50 acres of new apple trees. It takes about five years for them to produce a crop,” says Joe. “It’s all very exciting.” It is indeed.

A right royal welcome The BBCâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s former Royal Correspondent Jennie Bond tells Gillian Molesworth how Devon became her home, and the politics of choosing a 75th birthday over a Royal birth

Public speaking

By Gillian Molesworth

hese days, Jennie Bond is living her personality to the full. She cracks jokes, she swears, she loves wine. At the local pub near her South Devon home she is known to get down and boogie in the front row next to the band. Unladylike? Perhaps, but the BBC’s former Royal Correspondent is a fun person. Meeting her, I swiftly realise just how much of her exuberant personality was buttoned down behind the protocol and the skirt suits on our TV screens. Jennie, 63, was a reporter of royal affairs between 1989 and 2003. In this time she covered castle fires and fidelity fiascos, the break-up of two royal marriages and three royal deaths. These included the death of Diana, Princess of Wales – who had, over the years, confided all sorts of things to Jennie. A decade ago, she was at the top of her career but Jennie felt increasingly torn between work and her family life. She wanted to spend more time with her husband, American-born Jim Keltz, and her daughter Emma, born in 1990. And they wanted to move to the South West, where they had already found a special place to live. “My daughter was growing up and Devon offered a better life for her, and for us. I tried the weekly commuting thing and it was hideous – as a family, we hated being apart,” she explains. “I had this vision of coming home in five or six years and saying: ‘Right, I’ve got my pension now, I’m ready to spend some time with you,’ and she would be gone.”

In 2003, Jennie left the BBC for good. The move was a leap of faith. I ask Jennie how she had first discovered the corner of Devon that she so adores, East Prawle on the Southern coast of the South Hams. “I was in Muswell Hill in London where we lived, flicking through the back of a bird-watching magazine” (Both Jennie and Jim, a former radio broadcaster, love birds). “There was this ad for that said, ‘Come and stay, we have cirl buntings in our cowshed’”. Jennie repeats the phrase with a great laugh. “’We have cirl buntings in our cowshed’! I was so enchanted that we came to visit. We kept going back, and the owner told us he was selling five acres of his land with a Nissen hut on it, and we bought it. “It was so lovely to have somewhere that nothing mattered.” There is a difference between taking a break somewhere and committing your life to it, though. Jennie explains: “In 2003 I left the BBC because the future was in Devon. It was a huge risk but turned out to be the best decision I’ve ever made. We’ve made more friends here – lifelong friends – in 11 years than we did in 30 years in London. There is a much stronger sense of community. In 2004, a year after her life-changing move, she was invited to compete on I’m a Celebrity, Get Me Out of Here: a role for which she was paid £25,000 and raised a staggering £261,000 for the Devon Air Ambulance Trust. Today, both the Devon Air Ambulance helicopters bear her flamboyant signature on their smart red paintwork, in her honour. In the jungle, Jennie was required to eat a stick insect and a witchety grub, as well as being

At home in Devon

Interview In her stride Jennie has just taken up running, with surprising results. “I was not a sporty child either – I played hockey briefly, but flubbed a roll-on so spectacularly that everyone laughed at me. I gave it up then and there.” However, when Bupa threw down the gauntlet to take part in its recent 10k race, Jennie couldn’t resist the challenge: she says it was a good excuse to both inspire the nation and tackle the “wine belly”. “After a certain age, you use it, or you lose it,” said Jennie, who also does pilates and zumba in the East Prawle village hall. “I was in pretty good shape luckily. You get an initial check from a physio – mine even told me I had natural ‘running action’. “The first time I went out I fully anticipated hating it and I did. The next time was a little bit easier, and the next even easier. The coast path here is so gorgeous, you couldn’t ask for a better place to train. “What no one told me is the sense of achievement that running gives you – it’s addictive. The run can be quite hard but then you feel brilliant afterward; there’s such a sense of relaxation.”

placed in a dark, water-filled coffin for rats for ten minutes. She did so well in these challenges that she was voted the show’s runner-up. “I’m A Celebrity was an important step for me – even though Jim hated me doing it,” says Jennie. “It changed my image in the public eye, and also in the eye of television executives. They could see I was not just a presenter. After that a lot of offers came in – I never knew what I was going to be doing next. “I could be my own boss now – I could choose what I wanted to do, and when something important came up at home, I had the flexibility to say ‘no’.” This was put to the test as never before last year, when the birth of Prince George coincided with Jim’s 75th birthday party. “I received, very flatteringly, many phone calls asking me to go to London and talk about the birth,” says Jennie. Having commented publicly on every significant Royal occasion in nearly two decades, Jennie was faced with a dilemma. She chose her partner of 42 (and husband of 32) years. “For the first time in my working life I put my family first above a major Royal event,” she explains. “I was with my husband on his 75th birthday. As you get older, I you think: I’ve got to get my priorities right.” It’s an admirable decision and small wonder that, as a couple, Jennie and Jim are very much part of the East Prawle community: “It’s abso-

lutely home”, says Jennie. They did eventually give up the Nissen hut in favour of a real house on their five acres, a stunning architect designed “upside down” house, perched high on a cliff. “I don’t do the celebrity thing if I can possibly avoid it,” she avows. “I just like to be part of the community.My greatest joy is to invite friends to our house, eat a good meal and drink fine wines. It’s very lovely.” London and travelling still plays a part in her life: Jennie has appeared on shows from Cash in the Attic to the Great British Menu. She is still much sought-after to comment on Royal affairs. Emma is also now based in London, and as a researcher in TV on a number of shows, most recently Come Dine With Me. Jennie always feels the pull of Devon, though – and makes her citybased Twitter followers jealous with descriptions of a beautiful moonrise over the sea, or blustery walk on the coast path. It was here that Jennie trained for a new endeavour: the Bupa London 10,000 run (see panel, right). This 10K (6.2 mile) course was the farthest Jennie had ever run in her life. She was surprised by a statistic that 93 per cent of Britons aged 50-65 do not run, and think they’re too old to start. She loved the atmosphere on the race day itself – especially at it started and finished at a place she knew so well – The Mall, right outside Buckingham Palace.

Question time with Anne Q

This week’s to-do list Anne’s advice for your garden

• Raise height of cut on your mower if lawn growth slows in hotter, drier weather. You don’t want to scalp it but can still make regular cuts.

• Sow a row of turnips (choosing a quick maturing, early variety) for tasty additions to stews and casseroles come autumn.

• Pot up non flowering rosettes of sempervivums (houseleeks) into gritty, welldrained compost to replace those that are blooming.

• Cut away haulms of potatoes if they become blighted. This stops the disease travelling to the tubers below. Harvest and use the tubers before slugs get at them.

I love sweet peas and planted some in May. They have never really taken off and are a disappointment.

Sweet peas prefer to grow in cool conditions, so plant them as early as possible, from February to April depending on weather. They need really good soil, with plenty of organic matter dug in and must be watered during dry periods. Young plants are often sold ten or so to a small pot which is not the best way to grow them. Obtain special long growing pots called Root Trainers, fill with compost and sow one seed per module in October or February. These open on a hinge, to lift roots out easily. Or set five seeds per 9cm/3.5in pot. Plants will benefit from a fortnightly general purpose liquid feed, especially if they are floundering but nothing makes up for lack of substance in the soil.

Thin bamboo

Instead of growing on and fattening up, our leeks have produced flower buds.

They have bolted, or run up to flower and seed which unless you catch them early, means they’ll be tough and inedible. The upside is you’ll get pretty mauve flowers and can collect seed. Stress (lack of water, competition from weeds) or a wide difference in temperature from night to day all cause bolting. A sudden cold spell following optimum temperatures is another trigger. You may have sown a bit too early and should perhaps leave the first sowing for March or April (using an early variety) with perhaps another sowing using a late cultivar in May.

for a more attractive display and greater control. Cut out old or damaged canes and any you need for plant supports, to leave a pleasing arrangement of handsome stems. Trim off bottom side shoots to give clear stems and a view through unless you need a thicket.

Prune the long whippy side shoots of wisteria back to five leaves to keep them under control. They’ll be pruned harder to within one or two leaf joints of older wood in winter. 19

Best of beds

Sweet dreams are made of these...

f you are looking for the very best night’s sleep, then starting with a new mattress might well be answer. And why not pick one that is made in the Westcountry from organic local sheep’s wool? Naturalmat is a family company based in Topsham, near Exeter, that creates luxurious mattresses using all-natural materials. “As well as wool, we use mohair, cashmere and natural coir and cotton,” says director Mark Tremlett, who dreamed up the idea of the mattresses after a particularly bad night’s sleep - on a boat. “My family started out boat building and we now make the mattresses in our boat yard,” he explains. “Boats used to have notoriously uncomfortable mattresses, all synthetic and horrible to sleep on, often damp because they didn’t breathe. So we started by making natural boat mattresses, then branched out.” Today, you’ll find Naturalmat mattresses in

many of the world’s top hotels, but as of next week, you can also wander into their retail store – still on the boatyard in Topsham. “We’re opening up a shop, and you can also have a look round and see how the mattresses are crafted by hand,” says Mark. The new Naturalmat store opens on July 16 in Odhams Wharf, Topsham, and will also offer a wide range of beds, linenware and bedroom items.

MODERN MANORS

The car conundrum Kishanda Fulford needs a car... Any old car...

y son failed his first driving test for going around a roundabout the wrong way. The examiner was so astonished that he burst out laughing. As did my son, who knew that this manoeuvre was worthy of so many thousands of black marks, that it was time to call it a day. However, he subsequently passed second time round with flying colours. He was therefore a little shocked recently when some poor lady, absentmindedly, went straight in to the back of our car while he was stationary at a roundabout. So too was his younger brother, a learner, who was also in the car at the time. Very fortunately, no harm came to anyone. We were able to the drive the car, even though the dashboard warned the ‘boot compartment is not shut’. I could see people looking at the back of the car, with its bright red ‘L’ plate, and assume that it must have been the ‘learner’s’ fault. I am almost wondering why the lady did not register the ‘L’ plates on our car as she approached the roundabout. But in this case, I don’t think she ‘registered’ the car at all. The insurance company swung into action. The car would be repaired and we were offered a hire car which would be delivered on Monday morning. It never arrived. Several telephone calls later we decided it would be far easier to go to the hire company, pick up a car and drop the bashed one at the mender’s. Please, I said to the receptionist at the car hire place, please could you tell me if it is possible to have a car now, (which you were meant to have delivered on Monday – I did not say this) so that I can drop our car at the mender’s, as they are waiting for it? ‘Oh,’ the girl replied, straight-faced.

[

Her colleagues did not look up from their desks. She fiddled with the buttons on her computer, as Rome burnt, looked up and said, ‘We have had a shocker of a week’. It was, I noted to myself, only Wednesday. The manager also spent ages looking at his screen, during which time I got the giggles and had to go out for a minute. Did they actually have any cars? He eventually stared me

Or a bump on the small wall at the village shop. This has happened. I wondered if driving a car that could not have even one teeny weeny scratch on its return to the car hire company would be worth the strain. How could any of us negotiate the narrow lanes around here without having to go into the prickly hedges at least once in ten days? I thought of setting up my own car hire company: the cars would be ‘used’, scratched and suitable for dogs. However, I decided we had to take the risk. We then went through the details, which included that of four driving licences. I am surprised they did not ask me for my waist measurement or what I had for breakfast. Typically, I only had the card licence for my husband. This would not do. It would mean the car hire company would have to run a check through the DVLA. Right, I thought: easier if my husband does not drive the b…..y car. Later, I found seven messages on my mobile – each one from the car hire company. Had I read the ‘terms and conditions’ ?, and similar bossy notes. The worst then happened. The hire car was delivered. And, as I feared, it is so shiny that I could put my lipstick on in the reflection of the paintwork. I cannot possibly allow anyone to drive it.

[

She fiddled with the buttons on her computer, as Rome burnt, looked up and said, ‘We have had a shocker of a week’ in the eye, and told me he was not able to say, for certain, whether he could get us a car or not. We left it at that and went home. Another car hire company rang to say they would deliver a car that afternoon. During this conversation, which took 42 minutes, I was told that I would have to pay a fee of £50 for the security of the car. If we did not fill the petrol tank up we would be charged an extortionate fine of £2.50 a litre and we would have to pay the first £450 of any damage that might happen to the car. I had to think about this. What might happen? What might happen would bound to be something tiresome like a visitor backing into the car while in our courtyard. This has happened.

She keeps in shape and maintains the feel-good factor by hitting the waves. “I took up surfing just over five years ago, having been a body boarder for several years. It was in an attempt to get my daughter Molly, then 11, to learn. So I said I’d go to surf school with her. I absolutely loved it and have never body boarded since! I’m not very good but I can stand up consistently and the great thing about surfing is that anyone can do it at their own level. I find it a very inclusive sport!

It’s really good for your soul and for stress release and it’s just amazing to be in the sea. It leaves me feeling like I’ve had a full work out and a healthy glow on my face. There’s a huge sense of achievement from catching a wave and riding it all the way to the shore . My only negative at the moment is that I don’t get into the sea enough, so this has to change soon!

If you need to look smart this summer, here is our guide to cutting a dash with plenty of style ummer days… summer nights. If you’re going to a formal party this season, then let us help you to strike that tricky balance between looking elegant, yet relaxed enough to have a good time. It may be formal, but not stuffy. You want to make a statement, yet not seem attentionseeking. Solve your what-to-wear conundrums with our style guide to bag the award for Most Glamorous Guest. “Think about the style of the occasion before you plan your outfit,” advises Jenny Packham, red carpet and Debenhams designer. “Research the venue and location before outfit shopping, as that helps set the mood and style focus, whether it is a garden party, wedding or big birthday bash.” There are all sorts of options to choose from, whether it be summer brights or something more cool and collected. Try picking out one accent colour from your dress and use it for your accessories and you’ll have a ball. If you’ve got yourself a tan (real or fake) then now is the time to try white accessories like shoes or a dress watch. And party colour can really work in summer weather too. If the forecast is a bit uncertain, then take along a light jacket, just in case.

EATING OUT

Urban Burger By Becky Sheaves

was going to try a rather swanky and romantic restaurant this month. The plan was to nibble my way delicately through five courses of haute cuisine, sipping fine wines as I went. A special night out, just the two of us, for me and my husband. Then we couldn’t get a babysitter. So we had to take the kids with us. It’s an ill wind, though, because our venue re-think meant I have stumbled across a terrific, rather new, place to eat in Exeter. I would thoroughly recommend Urban Burger in Queen Street for families, friends and, yes, couples. Just not perhaps for first dates. Unless you are able to devour a burger the size of a football and still look alluring while you do so. I know I can’t. My husband John and our youngest kids, Luke and William, went along on a Wednesday night after the boys had been off to swimming lessons and sports practice. So they’d worked up an appetite. This was just as well, for the portions here are epic. This restaurant used to specialise in sausages, which were handmade and all sorts of flavours. The owners then made the decision to re-brand and focus on burgers instead. Our waitress told me they are now twice as busy. The room itself is pretty groovy. The kids loved the graffiti-decorated walls, with an edgy design mix of the original Georgian fireplaces teamed up with film posters and chandeliers. On hot days, the whole front of the restaurant opens up with bifold doors, allowing for some pavement culture. Our waitresses could not have been more friendly and charming, and were both real superstars. Both were a serious asset to the business, I’d say. Some of the burgers on offer were chicken and veggie options but in the main they are made with beef from Sladesdown Farm in Ashburton near Dartmoor. Apparently, the chefs here get a sizeable chunk of cow delivered to them every week, which they butcher themselves. John ordered the “Urban Burger”. This cost

£7.45, and was a 6oz pattie with smoked bacon, cheese of your choice (he went for Monterey Jack) and mayonnaise. Luke had the same, but with Cheddar, while William, who is a notoriously fussy eater, wanted the “Plain Jane” (£5.50) – just a burger in a bun. “No salad, no mayo, nothing?” checked the waitress. Yep, that’s right. With chips, though, obviously. I decided to try one of the menu’s latest additions, called “Piggy in the Middle” (£7.95), which is made with pulled pork. We all ordered the double-fried chips (£1.25) and I admired the selection of local beers and ciders, before opting for a half of Thatcher’s from Somerset (£1.70) while John had a pint of excellent Bay beer from Torquay. While we waited, the boys coloured in pictures of cows. Don’t ever say kids here won’t learn where their food comes from. These are pasted up on the wall and the best one wins a family meal. I’m not optimistic of our chances - simply writing “Lol” “Lol” “Lol” (that’s Laugh Out Loud, apparently) all over a picture may not show quite the required level of artistic endeavour. Our burgers then arrived, each accompanied by a bucket of chips. Not quite a real bucket, more of a natty little stainless steel version, but it was a huge quantity nonetheless. They were delicious, extra crispy from all that double frying. The burgers come in a proper big, fluffy bun, hand-baked in Crediton. Lovely. Each was flavoursome and really packing a punch taste-

wise. Alongside came huge salads, and my pulled pork was smokey and flavoursome. A hush fell on our table as we ploughed our way through this spread of food, punctuated only by the kids gasping in amazement at the college kids walking past our window. We were treated to a steady procession of girls in fairy wings plus lads in mini skirts and high heels. Our sheltered offspring, fresh from a village and unused to city nightlife, loved it. Finally, the kids had some dense and fruity home-made strawberry ice cream, while John and I shared an “Urban Mess” of cream, meringue and mixed berries. Then we paid the modest bill – just £64 for a slap-up family meal. Urban Burger, Exeter, 01392 422999, www.urbanburger.co.uk

electronic sound. A deep voice echoes across the sound system.“Ladies and gentlemen. Introducing our first team. They present to you, Dr Who 3000!” Lights! Music! Cartwheels! Daleks! We were blown away. Honestly, it was amazing. Each team performs choreographed dance routines and razzle-dazzle tumbling, with cartwheels and aerials, somersaults and flicks. They make patterns with their bodies, and sometimes throw each other into the air. There is a Harry Potter theme, pirates of the future, a story of war and peace. It is jaw-droppingly cool. By the end our hands are stinging from clapping so much. There isn’t time to go to Cribbs Causeway but we don’t care.

SUNDAY

The Mill: This hard-hitting 19th Century period drama follows the fortunes of Quarry Bank Mill. BAFTA-award winning writer John Fay says: “We’ve got authentic costumes and scripts but a lot of the issues have modern-day parallels. I find that resonance very absorbing.”

WEDNESDAY

Commonwealth Games

Long Lost Family A daughter seeks a mother and a sister seeks a brother in this real-life series, assisted by presenters Davina McCall and Nicky Campbell. Davina says: “Long Lost Family is unlike anything else I’ve ever been involved in - it’s emotional, it’s heart-warming and it’s life-changing for the people we reunite. It’s such a huge honour.”

The UK’s post-Olympic sport euphoria continues with this year’s Commonwealth Games, which open this week in Glasgow. Elite athletes are gathering in Scotland and preparing to compete in a range of athletic events, from badminton to weightlifting, gymnastics to judo and even (no kidding) lawn bowls. On Wednesday, Clare Balding presents coverage of the opening ceremony at Celtic Park alongside Gary Lineker and Hazel Irvine; Irvine also provides the commentary with Huw Edwards. The Queen’s Baton Relay ends here, and 3,000 volunteers will take part in what promises to

be a spectacular show. Competitors from 71 nations enter the arena in the Parade of Athletes before the Queen herself officially declares the 2014 Commonwealth Games open. Clare Balding says: “The Scottish welcome will be warm and generous and enthusiastic. “I just think it is a very good reflection of our ability to organise major events and stage them with humour and a great appreciation of entertainment value, and to do so efficiently and always with the athlete in mind.” If you want to get more involved or informed in the Commonwealth Games, there’s also a great website: www.glasgow2014.com.

The Mill (Channel 4, 8pm)

The hit 19th-century period drama returns for a second run, with plenty more drama around the Poor Law Amendment Act of 1834. Four years after the law has passed, desperate economic migrants from the South turning up in droves at Quarry Bank Mill in search of jobs. This is bad news for the workers of Styal village, as it might lead to a drop in wages. If the impact of the new legislation wasn’t already clear enough for all to see, it hits home particularly hard for feisty Liverpudlian apprentice Esther (Kerrie Hayes), who discovers a beggar in the mill yard is her own sister, Martha. BAFTA-winning writer Johan Fay, a veteran of Coronation Street, once again demonstrates he knows what makes great drama.

Long Lost Family (ITV, 9pm)

Davina McCall and Nicky Campbell returned last week with their fourth series of this show reuniting people with their long-lost relatives. This series sees them going further than ever before: travelling to Australia and South Africa to help mothers, fathers, children, and siblings to track down the people they thought they had lost for ever. In this week’s episode, the pair meet 44-year-old adoptee Sara Price-Parker. Her gruelling 25-year search for her birth mother, Denise, was called off when she learned Denise had moved to Jamaica in the 1970s. Only child Pauline Wood grew up in an adopted family, but discovered at age 28 that her birth parents had had another child. Now 77, can Pauline find her long lost brother? Tune in to find out how the stories end.

Sir Chris Hoy: How to Win Gold (BBC1, 10.45pm)

“Always quit while you’re ahead”. This is an adage Chris Hoy knows only too well. The world’s most accomplished living British Olympian has retired from cycling, having earned a record-breaking six Olympic Gold medals. In this documentary, he looks back at his incredible journey, and speaks to other medal-winning athletes, including Andy Murray and Steve Redgrave. Chris says: “The success I had never stopped surprising me because I don’t think I was simply born a champion. I don’t think anyone is. “I want to show you how champions are made. And if I can do it, anyone can, because we all start off with a chance of winning gold.” Find out how Steve Redgrave was helped on his athletic journey by a teacher.

Commonwealth Games: Opening Ceremony (BBC One, 8pm)

The build-up to the Commonwealth Games has been almost as exhausting as taking part. For months we’ve been told it’s on its way and that it’s going to be fantastic - now it’s time for Glasgow to put its money where its mouth is and show us what it’s made of. Clare Balding presents coverage of the opening ceremony at Celtic Park alongside Gary Lineker and Hazel Irvine and Huw Edwards.The Queen’s Baton Relay ends here, and 3,000 volunteers take part in a spectacular show. Competitors from 71 nations enter the arena in the Parade of Athletes before the Queen herself officially declares the Games open.

Hatton Gardens in Holborn has been the centre of London’s jewellery trade since medieval times. The area houses skilled jewellerymakers, millionaire wheeler-dealers and multi-national companies. This bling-tastic documentary focuses on some of the biggest characters who call the place home. Meet characters such as Michael Lynton, who has been creating bespoke jewellery for 40 years using centuries-old techinques, and security guard Chris Eracleous, who has chosen Karl Karter to make the diamond ring with which he plans to propose to his girlfriend. Michael says: “You’ve got to love what you do and I’ve always stuck to the maxim, if you don’t like what you do then you’re not really going to be very good at it. I’m still only as good as the last job that I’ve done.”

We’re glad to see him back on the box to bring in our weekend - Friday evenings have been rather quiet lately. However, we have to contain ourselves from getting too excited, as tonight’s programme is his one-off summer special (albeit split into two parts and stretched out across the full night). Tonight, Alan’s guests include Miranda Hart, who’ll be chatting about her latest stand-up arena tour, and Vin Diesel talking about his film, Guardians of the Galaxy. Inbetweeners stars James Buckley, Simon Bird, Blake Harrison and Joe Thomas will discuss the second film in the franchise, and music comes courtesy of Rizzle Kicks .

This 2009 American comedy-drama film is directed by Jason Reitman. The story focuses on corporate “downsizer” Ryan Bingham (George Clooney) and his travels. Up In The Air won a Golden Globe for Best Screenplay, and received six Oscar nominations. The story tells of Ryan, who makes his living travelling to workplaces all over the United State, informing workers of their dismissals. Ryan also delivers motivational speeches, using the metaphor “What’s In Your Backpack?” to extol the virtues of a life free of burdensome relationships. Ryan’s personal ambition is to earn ten million frequent flyer miles. But as the drama unfolds, Ryan begins to question his isolated lifestyle. The question is, can he change?

My life

man and boy

How to cross the road

[

Phil Goodwin gets some safety advice from James, four ack in the heyday of public information films, my generation was taught how to cross the road safely by a cute red squirrel called Tufty. Later, as those of a certain age will recall, the streetwise rodent was pensioned off and replaced with a man in tights, his rippling chest emblazoned with the X of the Green Cross Code. Now, faced with the modern multimedia landscape it is often tempting to hark back to these simpler pre-computer times, when TV channels were fewer and ‘Auntie’ ruled the airwaves with BBC1 And BBC2. No matter the era, too much screen time can be bad for our little darlings, who really ought to be out in the fresh air playing football, riding bikes and climbing trees. But surfing the web, I have found, is not all bad news for kids. To my astonishment, at the tender age of four, my son has navigated this bewildering online world and discovered his own road safety advice. He has become a firm devotee of the animated Korean show Robocar Poli and its diligent robot crew of emergency vehicles – man-machines blessed with Superman’s ability to arrive in the nick of time to dispense stern lecture to the reckless youngsters. Naturally, like any concerned father, I was delighted. This would reinforce all the work I had been doing at the traffic lights. Job done. Thanks lads. But that was until we took our first trip into Exeter and I realised the extent of his evangelical adherence to these cartoon crossing guards. As it seems just a brief exposure has seen him morph into some kind of uber-Tufty. A 21st century crossing guard who brooks no argument: Tufty the Terminator. This is how we roll now: we stop at the first pedestrian traffic lights. James presses the button – always him, never me, that’s a tantrum waiting to happen – and we wait. God help me if I stray onto the knobbly paving stones nearest

[

the tarmac. This earns me a stiff two-arm yank backwards and a firm telling off. “Hey, these are just to stop people from slipping,” I protest. “I think they are for blind people. You are actually allowed to stand here.” “No, daddy, Noooo!” And there we must stand, a full yard back from the road. It is said that children like rules; they need authority. Far be it from me to encourage dissent at such a tender age but, at the risk of offending the health and safety lobby, I do try to encourage a little common sense, sometimes, on quiet days. But now there is absolutely no chance that we can perform a crafty manoeuvre. No matter if there is not a single car in sight or earshot. Never mind if it is chucking it down with rain. It could be 5am on Christmas Day. We could be the only survivors of a nuclear blast. We would still have to wait dutifully for the peeps. Often, slightly chillingly to my mind, he passes the time by singing the theme tune of the show, which is in Korean. And I am not the only target of his displeasure. Anyone who dares to tread the tarmac in contravention of the rules invokes his brow-furrowed displeasure and is in line for a stiff rebuke. “That’s naughty,” he pipes up as a young student skips across the deserted road, turning to smile at his cheek. “Isn’t it Daddy?” he continues, daring me not to agree. “Poli Robocar says so.

He passes the time by humming the theme tune of the show, which is in Korean

[

That’s right, isn’t it Daddy?” I wonder what has happened to this once free spirit who would chase a feather into the road. Now he has fallen into the arms of this cult. Of course, he is right. Good habits and all that. “Yes, you have to wait for the Green Man,” I smile. “That’s the rule.” Then I add the motto I learned all those years ago from nice Tufty: “Look right, look left, look right again…”
