Creative thoughts this week As part of Exeter’s Urban Bee project (involving installing 45,000 of the critters on the roof of Exeter’s Debenhams) Ashburton-based jeweller Yume Martin has been making some gorgeous silver bee necklaces. We’ve got one to win on page 17, worth £75 - why not drop us an email and see if it could be yours? We also hear all about how Yume gathers inspiration from a fascinating life, brought up between homes in Devon and Japan.

Meanwhile, down in Cornwall, there’s a new kids on the fashion block. Silly Old Sea Dog is a fabulous new label from Newquay that breathes new life into 1950s-style prints and fabrics. We love the fact that they are made in sizes right up to 28, because there’s nothing like a cinched-in waist and full skirt to flatter curvy ladies.

Tim Maddams has been out in search of mushrooms this week, near his home in east Devon, coming home with some delicious wild ceps. You can buy them in shops too, either way Tim has some great recipe ideas for them on page 28 this week.Finally, our resident gardening expert Anne Swithinbank has been off to visit her daughter, and found inspiration there for some thoughts on reading palms (page 18).

Palm trees, that is. Happy reading.

Rockin’ around the frock

By Gillian Molesworth

ey baby, neat dress! Are you off to catch a flick? Or down to the strip to catch the hot rods?

Welcome back to the Fifties, hep cats. But we’re talking Cornwall not Chicago. And here is seamstress Alison Ballard from Newquay. Just 27, she has founded her own designer label, called Silly Old Sea Dog. “I just love the vintage look” says Alison. “I’m really inspired by the fabrics that I choose. They are the starting point for a lot of my dresses. I see fun print and think, ‘ooh, I want that!’ The more colourful the better.”

Her fabrics, some of which come from the USA, feature Marvel comics, Liquorice Allsorts, unicorns, flamingos, roadsters and polka dots – Silly Old Sea Dog is all about fun.

Why the 1950s? “I just love the glamour and femininity of the dresses from that era,” says Alison. “Also I love the tailoring, which really brings out your curves.”

Alison’s designs are ideal for an hourglass figure, with a fitted bodice top and a full skirt.

Some of her dresses even have flouncy petticoats underneath.

No woman is left behind – Alison is a champion of the Real Woman movement. She designs for sizes six all the way to a curvaceous size 28.

“My plus-size range has been a real hit, espe-

H

cially sizes 24-28,” she said. “When you are that dress size, your choices are limited to labels like Evans, and the dresses tend to be dark – black, navy and brown.

“It’s nice for larger girls to have more lively clothes. I think it’s really positive for body image as well. And they look great in the dresses.

“I also use all sorts of models for my website.

Lots of brands will carry dresses up to a size 20, but they show it on a size six model, which isn’t very helpful if you’re trying to picture how it will look on you.

“I try to use a variety of body types and ages as well for my fashion shoots. I want to design for everyone – teens from age 13 right up to ladies in their 60s.”

Silly Old Sea Dog is celebrating its first anniversary. The brand started as ‘a sewing hobby’ explains Alison, followed by a fashion course at Truro College. One assignment was to make a product line, brand it and promote it and Silly Old Sea Dog was born. Alison has backed up her ideas with business skills, learned in courses such as one called Unlocking Cornish Potential.

Like any 21st century business, Silly Old Sea Dog is spreading the word online: Alison’s bags see brisk trade on handmade website Etsy, and her Facebook page is great for publicity. Now, she sells her range on her website. Here you can also 11

03/09/2014 16:51:51

see her frisky fashion shoots: pool party, at the cinema, at the fun fair.

In the past year she has been on the road, hitting trade shows such as the Vintage Nostalgia Show, Exeter’s Crikey It’s Vintage!, and Plus Size Fashion Week in Paris. Alison also won a trade stand worth £2,000 at the Clothes Show Live in Birmingham, and she’s gearing up to wow the Americans at a trade show called Viva Las Vegas.

“I really like meeting people.

It’s nice to introduce the brand to new customers. It’s also been amazing seeing some of the people at the vintage fairs – they love my stuff, and some of them dress in vintage clothes all the time!”

Alison has a dream to open her own shop, but for the moment it’s all hands on deck at home.

“My family has been really supportive,” she said. “My mum helps make some of the products for me, like the hairbands and bows that we create from matching fabric.

“My dad built a stand for me to use at shows,

and comes along to help me set it up.”

Running a new business has been a roller coaster ride for Alison, she admits. She wants to stay true to her “made by hand” ethos, but finds that today’s customers want everything yesterday.

“Our clothes are made to order, which takes some time, and some people aren’t willing to wait,” she said. “I’ve found this especially around Christmas. People go online to find something to wear to the office party, then they want it right away.

“So I’ve been talking to a factory in Manchester, which is going to start making some of the lines, for me, just to satisfy demand. I’m going to try to keep it small scale and handmade though.”

So here’s the jive, cats – order your Silly Old Sea Dog dress more than a week before the sock hop to get yourself looking tip top. This label is where it’s at. Yeah. Dig it.

‘I love the glamour and femininity of 50’s dresses, and the way they bring out your curves’

YUME MARTIN

Precious mettle

By Sarah Pitt

round Yume Martin’s little shop in Ashburton, on the southern fringes of Dartmoor, there are dragonflies in gold and silver, clusters of flowers, butterflies and tiny feathers. Some hang from earring fixings, others are the centrepiece of pendants.

Her work, made from ethically-sourced recycled silver, with touches of 24ct gold, is feminine without being fussy. Is this pared-back look a reflection of Japanese culture? Yume (pronounced you-may) spent her early childhood in a small town in Japan, where her Japanese mum and British dad were both potters.

“Perhaps,” she says slowly, considering the matter as she sits at her workbench where she is creating tiny silver bees. Each is exquisite, and destined for an upcoming exhibition in Exeter.

Certainly, she concedes, her upbringing in Kasama, a town in Japan known for its pottery, might have prepared her for life as a designer-maker.

“My parents and all my friends’ parents were potters. I have some lovely memories of our parents firing for three days in a row, and everyone coming round and helping out late into the night.

It was quite festive, a really lovely communal feeling where everyone helped out. I guess my jewellery is a natural progression from that.”

She also credits her parents’ love of travelling with sowing the seeds of her fascination for all

A

things twinkly.

“Dad was a hippy who moved from India to Japan and my mum was obsessed with everything foreign,” says Yume. “They took me travelling to India and Thailand as a child. I have memories of going into dark cave-like shops full of gems and trinkets, hanging out with ladies making earrings out of peacock feathers and men bedecked with elaborate clothes and jewellery. I found it so absorbing.”

Now she has her own shop, displaying her own creations, which glint from cabinets. There are butterflies and flowers, but also little studs in hearts and blocks, and even tiny skulls. “They are kind of cute, through aren’t they?” she says.

“They are not scary skulls.”

It is the flowers which remain her bestsellers, though. “Everyone likes flowers,” she says. “I’d like to think there is some Japanese influence in there. I suppose in Japanese culture, nature is a really precious thing, and I grew up in the countryside in Japan. Then, of course, Devon is so beautiful as well, with nature is all around us.”

Nature may inspire her, but Yume makes something altogether her own when she gets to work with heat and hammers, pliers and solder.

Her work is delicate, but often surprising.

The latest version of her signature buttercupstyle flowers feature gunmetal grey coloured petals – created by oxydising the silver – with a sparkling gold centre. “I’m pleased with them, they are quite edgy,” she says.

Now 32, Yume has been making her living from her jewellery for seven years, but has been

honing her craft for twice that.

She had her lucky break when the prestigious Devon Guild of Craftsmen saw some of her work and made her a member, selling her work at their headquarters in Bovey Tracey. “That was a very proud day for me,” she says.

Opening her shop a year ago has been a major confidence boost too, for a woman who, despite her talent, was “a bit shy” about showing her work on her own doorstep. Here she enjoys breaking the isolation of the designer-maker’s life with meeting her customers face-to-face.

“This felt like a really good balance because I can be social and work at the same time,” she says.

Indeed, it has taken Yume many years of practising her craft to get where she is today.

Yume moved from Japan with her parents to Ashburton when she was 12. While her parents are now separated and her dad has returned to Japan, her mum still lives and makes her ceramics in Ashburton.

Yume made her first silver ring at the age of 16 – “a friend of my mum’s showed me how to do it” she says. Then, at the age of 18, she took off travelling in Mexico with a friend, and ended up enrolling at university, in a town called Tasco near Mexico City, to learn silversmithing.

Bringing her craft back home, she started putting the techniques into practice. She made jewellery in her mum’s shed, while earning a living with various jobs in the town. “I’ve worked in every café in town over the years!” she says.

And so Yume has gradually built up her skills, enrolling in courses along the way. “I did a course in London in a technique called Kuem-Boo. It is an old Korean technique for fusing gold leaf onto silver,” she says. “It is really, really tricky.”

The technique involves repeatedly heating and cooling the silver, which has a little copper in it for strength, so that the pure silver comes to the surface. The gold leaf is then fused onto this surface.

“It is so fiddly!” she says. “You tear a little bit of the gold leaf off with a pair of tweezers, and then you use an agate stone to rub it in.”

This technique is just one in her armoury in the magical process of transforming plain sheets and coils of wire into covetable creations.

Her silver butterflies have a surface patina created by a process known as ‘planishing’, tapping with the circular end of a special hammer called a ball-pin hammer.

I watch as she creates her silver bees, carefully heating the metal until it is as soft as butter.

There are 45,000 bees living in hives on the roof garden of the city’s Princesshay shopping centre. An exhibition of beethemed art and craft will go on show at the Yard Gallery at Exeter College off Queen Street, Exeter from Friday, September 5 - Saturday, September 27.

“You are sort of melting the pieces together, so the parts are fused, but then stopping before they actually melt into each other,” she says.

Yume is inspired by what she sees in nature, but is not a slave to naturalistic accuracy. “I quite like leaving some space for people’s interpretation,” she says. “My feather earrings for instance, a lot of people think they are leaves. But whatever people want them to be is fine. I’m not precious about it at all.” Unlike her jewellery, which is most certainly very precious indeed.

This week’s gardening tips Anne’s advice for your garden

Question time with Anne Anne responds to West reader concerns and queries We have a fig that has made lots of leaf and medium sized figs. These are still green and despite a reasonably good summer, show no signs of ripening.

Q

The aim with figs is to restrict their roots to dissuade them from putting up long stems full of lush leaves. What we’re after is a branching shape with short shoots and medium-sized leaves. Figs are best planted inside an underground planting box about 60cm/2ft wide and deep, with paving slab sides and rubble beneath.

Sometimes they are grown in containers, but can be hard work to keep well fed, watered and top-dressed.

You also need to remove all those green, medium-sized figs in autumn, leaving behind only the pea-sized ones which will then go on and fruit next year. Try fruit removal, pruning back the very long stems this winter and thereafter stopping young shoots after five leaves in June.

As we’re elderly, we hire a gardener to do big jobs like hedge trimming. The previous one made a good job of our pyracantha hedge and it always looked neat, yet flowered and fruited well. It is now larger and messier with very few orange fruits. What should we ask our new gardener to do with it?

Q

Your new gardener is probably not very experienced, so do be diplomatic! Pyracanthas bloom in late spring and their new growth usually extends beyond this after flowering. The correct time to cut the hedge would be between May and July, cutting back as tightly as possible while leaving most of the developing fruits behind. Ask the gardener to cut one side of the overgrown hedge back to its original height and width next spring and do the other half the following spring. Encourage him or her to take the time to get it right, which might involve putting up a line to get a straight top and finetune with hand shears for precision. I feel it’s a little too late to hard prune an evergreen now.

How to grow palm trees

· Feed leeks with a general purpose liquid fertiliser to encourage as much growth as possible, before cold winter and short days call a halt. · Sow winter spinach to overwinter as seedlings and provide a crop next spring.

Choose a bolt-resistant variety, sow in a sunny spot, thin to 8cm/3in for now and cover with a cloche from October. · Plant narcissus (daffodil) bulbs in pots, borders or in grass, using the general rule of burying them by twice their own depth of soil.

They’ll be able

to put down a good root system to allow them to absorb plenty of moisture in spring. · Plant clematis and other wall plants and climbers as soon as the ground has been thoroughly moistened by rain. Soil is still warm and they too will put down good roots. · Take hardwood cuttings of roses by selecting firm stems, cutting above a leaf at the top and below at the base so they are 15-30cm/612in long. Insert 15cm/6in apart and buried by half to two thirds in a trench and leave for a year or two.

• Plant in good, well-drained soil. Varieties with variegated or coloured leaves may scorch in harsh sun.

• Avoid stressing cordylines (Torbay palms) with drought, heat, wet or cold. They will probably survive but could lose their looks.

• Feed (I’d use a slow release or controlled release fertiliser) and mulch plants in spring for the best results.

• Protect the crowns of plants in cold winters and insulate the sides of pots.

• Prune tall plants in spring if necessary, bearing in mind they will sprout from just below the cut. Feed afterwards.

• Remove the growing point in spring if you want a tall, straight plant to start branching.

With so much creature-chic on offer, it’s all too easy to have the patter of paws throughout your interior, but Hornby advises against overindulging animal instincts. “You don’t want to turn your home into the equivalent of a visual safari park or, worse, something resembling a grown-up nursery. A little goes a long way with this look, so balance bold animal prints with plenty of neutral space,” she says. “This will prevent them overwhelming a room but still allow them to make a statement.” So approach carefully. Animals on homeware won’t bite, but this style can be highly addictive. Simply pick one or two, and rest assured – no animals have been harmed in the making of these items!

MODERN MANORS

Lights off, nobody home Kishanda Fulford makes the best of a power cut

was on my laptop checking the weather forecast when, ‘puff’, that was it. We had no electricity. After a little research I discovered that it would be 6pm at the earliest before our supply was restored. It was absolutely infuriating. I walked to my laundry room to sort through piles of washing and felt rather stupid as I realised I could not wash anything – except by hand. It was 8.22am.

My husband mentioned he felt ‘cut off’. I could not be very sympathetic to someone who does not use a vacuum cleaner, and to whom the dials on a washing machine are a mystery. Although, in fairness, he would notice that our telephone ceases to function without electricity, and mobiles do not really work in our parts anyway. The oil to our Aga, on which I could have dried the clothes I might have hand-washed, is also reliant on electricity to pump oil into its greedy burner.

I watched as the heat slowly faded…

Recently, residents in Primrose Hill in London also lost their electricity. It was a lovely day and people poured on to the streets, and started chatting to each other. Who knows what new friendships may have sprung up? If I was Boris Johnson I would regularly cut off the electricity in London, so that everyone would get out and meet their neighbours. It would, though, be entirely pointless in London boroughs like Kensington and Chelsea which are now, pretty much deserted. If you walk through Eaton Square at night the lights are off. No one is at home. Most of these houses belong to overseas investors.

I was informed by my husband that he was going to take advantage of the lack of electricity to do some ‘tidying’ around the house. This is

I

[

something I have never heard him say before. It was the most lovely, sunny day and rather than be party to the great ‘clear up’ with my husband, I set off with our dogs. Our dear old dog, Tim, sensibly decided to plonk himself on the grass outside the front door, to bask in the heat. Bert, our puppy, and I continued to walk aimlessly across the fields. I do not know why but the fact

[

The mess he had made is hard to describe. Where, I asked him, was my mobile charger? we had no electricity meant there was nothing to worry about. No emails to check, no one could ring us and it was like being set free without a care in the world. Bert snuffled in the hedgerows and rather than hurry him along I was happy just to gaze around and admire the mediaeval banks which still exist here. We then came to an immaculate farm. Not a piece of straw out of place. Bert, to my horror, did the worst. We moved on swiftly.

The lane we took passed my neighbour’s house. Rather than intrude, Bert and I walked past, only to hear shouts of ‘come and have some tea’. My neighbours were frantically packing to go on holiday but it was one of those days when everyone was looking for an excuse just to

sit in the sun and forget about the washing up.

Bert was given a bowl of cold water and we all ate delicious orange cake. We watched bumble bees suck on mint flowers. For ages we sat admiring their stripy black and yellow fur as they moved on to the chives. My neighbours believed the bees were sleepy, which they were, because of pesticides used on the swathes of broad beans in the adjacent fields. We agreed that in an ideal world everyone would farm organically…

I came back home from this delightful afternoon’s pottering in the countryside to find our electricity supply had been restored. On went the dishwasher, the Hoover, the washing machine, the hot water, and the computer. While I was out, my husband told me, he had taken it upon himself to ‘tidy’ my drawer. Everything in this drawer was, when I left, ordered into neat piles: one for papers, one for chequebooks, one for old make-up, etc. Plus a stone in the shape of a heart and some woodcock feathers, which I collect.

The mess he had made of this system is hard to describe. Where, I asked him, was my mobile charger? He told me that anything ‘electrical’ had been moved to the ‘electric’ drawer. I set off outside in search of bees...

Where to eat?

Worldwide tips for healthy things to eat and drink

apan, Italy and Iceland boast some of the world’s healthiest food habits, but it’s not all due the kind of ingredients they use. Research has found that cooking from scratch is also key.

“Traditional cooking from any country tends to be healthy because it involves basic ingredients, home-cooked, without any additives or preservatives,” says Katy Mason, a nutritionist for online health store NutriCentre.com.

“When you take meat, fish, dairy, pulses, fruits and vegetables, then cook them at home with the herbs and spices you have to hand you really can’t go wrong.”

Katy advises cooks to get creative and try combining fresh local ingredients with a selection of other health-boosting staples from around the world.

Olive oil, an essential for Mediterranean cook-

ing, is high in the polyunsaturated fats and omega oils which are so good for the heart and brain.

“It’s best eaten raw, so try adding it to food after it has been cooked, as heating damages its molecular structure,” says Katy.

Or how about a Japanese-style meal containing fresh fish, leafy green veg, soy, and complex carbohydrates such as buckwheat noodles. It’s not only healthy, but can be quickly prepared, says Katy.

“People often get the basics right, but then smother the dish in ready-made sauces, which are often high in salt, sugar additives, preservatives and cheap fats,” says Katy. “In fact, Japanese cuisine uses wonderfully balanced and healthy seasonings.”

Try adding flavour with Tamari, made from fermented soya beans. Or zingy Ume plum seasoning to wake up your digestive system.

“It’s the juice left over after umeboshi plums are pickled in salt,” explains Katy. Umeboshi plums can also be used to flavour foods but

often they are eaten on their own. “They really can’t be beaten for their incredible salty, sour and sharp taste. And they are believed to have an alkalinising effect on the body, neutralising fatigue,” she adds.

Japanese miso seaweed can be used as a remedy for stomach ailments, promoting a healthy pH in the digestive system. “Add it to soups and other dishes but not when they are boiling hot, as this will destroy some of the goodness,” says Katy.

“An easy way to incorporate miso into your diet is to make a hot drink out of it or to spread it on toast – delicious.”

Iceland is considered one of the world’s healthiest food locations, growing its own and importing fewer processed foods. “The pure Icelandic waters are full of seafood, which is a large part of the diet there,” says Katy.

“You can mimic the Icelandic effect by making sure you are eating enough oily fish. such as mackerel, salmon and sardines.”

It felt like a good idea at the time – get fit, raise money for a great charity, spend time with colleagues and see the beautiful countryside of

Light and Bright If you’re afraid of the winter darks, fear not! You can wear those summer shades around the calendar - here’s how igh, it’s September. Time to say goodbye to those pretty summer colours and get out the autumn drab.

Goodbye, bright colours, goodbye, pastels: now it’s the turn of oranges, browns, and muted greens. Ho hum.

Wait…it doesn’t have to be this way!

If you’re a person who prefers light or bright tones to the darker shades, your luck is in. Lots of designers agree with you that summer should not have a monopoly over colour.

Jewel tones are a great alternative to those earth mother shades of autumn: just look at this cute shirt and sweater combo from Next in hot pink, teamed with a swishy pleated skirt. Long Tall Sally is working bright cranberry red in a lot of their clothes this season, and royal blue is a lovely colour to lift an outfit – it goes particularly well with white, so you can still show off the tan.

Bright, saturated colours can be teamed with fun jewellery like these eye-catchers from George, or this design by Tine Bladbjerg, who exhibited at the Cornwall Design Fair this year. Remember

you can do “colour blocking” with bright tones, with different colours for your trousers, shirt, and jumper. A patterned scarf can help tie it all together.

Those of us who enjoyed Kathryn ClarkeMcLeod’s piece on Princesshay pastels this summer will be glad to hear that we can take them right into autumn. That’s right, folks, your winter coat doesn’t have to be dark or drab: look at this baby blue number from New Look (there’s also a good one available at George at Asda).

Autumn pastels are particularly useful as it allows us one last wear of our mid-length summer skirts, like this knee-swisher from Coast, with a warmer garment on top – there is a good range at Orsay.

You can pick up the palette in your jewellery to complete this very feminine look. As far as the handbag goes, continue the theme, or don’t be afraid to find something that contrasts.

So if you’re afraid of the dark when it comes to autumn clothes, don’t worry. Keep it light and bright, and you’re sure to succeed.

EATING OUT

Otterton Mill

By Becky Sheaves

ometimes, it’s nice to go somewhere that is more than just a place to eat.

And Otterton Mill certainly ticks a whole lot of extra boxes beyond mere catering. There are ducks and chickens to look at, lots of little craft-type shops, an art gallery, food store, bakery and – on certain days – you can even see the 1,000-year-old mill in action, actually grinding flour.

So this place is not so much a café, as a way of life. Small wonder it is hugely popular with the many people who stop by here for a day out. Often visitors combine lunch or tea with one of the nicest dog walks in Devon, from the mill along the treelined River Otter to the beach at Budleigh Salterton.

But is the food any good? I took my son Luke (12) along for lunch one day last week to find out.

First impressions were definitely favourable.

The place was busy and buzzing, with people eating, shopping and enjoying coffees in the courtyard and inside the café. I bumped into a friend of mine who had just picked up his wife from a long walk she’d done along the east Devon coastline. Now she was taking the car and the kids, while he was going to run home in a sporty fashion. Otterton Mill is that sort of place

S

– a landmark and a rendezvous.

Inside, the décor is very charming and homely with chalk board menus, old stone walls and wooden floors. You queue to be served by some friendly young folk. Luke opted for a bacon sandwich (£5.50) somewhat to my chagrin, as it is not exactly a challenge of culinary skill. To put the kitchen to the test, I picked the glutenfree veggie option. The old “free-from” dish is often a chef’s nightmare, but this one sounded really nice: aubergine filled with roasted Mediterranean vegetables topped with Parmesan and served with baby leaf spinach and salsa verde (£8.95). To drink, I had a latte (£2.10) and Luke went for hot chocolate (£2.10), plus a homemade choc chip cookie (85p) for good measure. Which he scoffed as a starter while waiting for his bacon sarnie. Kids.

We ate upstairs, which is accessed by a steep little staircase. It’s all very cosy, with open beams, whitewashed walls and sofas. The coffee was excellent, as was the hot chocolate. Along came our main courses, and Luke’s bacon sandwich was quite simply superb.

They bake the bread themselves at the mill. The wholemeal was dense, chewy and nourishing, while the bacon (locally sourced) was excellent.

My veggie dish was a whole aubergine, scooped out and filled. It looked beautiful but taste-wise was a little underpowered. The veg could have done with roasting for longer, to allow flavour to

The place was busy and buzzing, with people eating and shopping

develop, plus the dish needed more seasoning, more cheese and generally more oomph. Having said that, the salsa verde was fresh green and gorgeous and it was an innovative recipe idea.

Then Luke and I returned for our second course. Luke had another choc chip cookie – yes, they were that good – plus a bottle of the reliably excellent organic raspberry lemonade from South Devon’s Luscombe Drinks (£2.50). I had some Earl Grey tea, again from a local firm (Clipper Teas of Dorset) and a slice of what I considered to be bakewell tart, but which was going by the name of frangipane. Whatever it was called, it was absolutely fantastic: crisp pastry, generous fruit, moist and delicious almond topping. Wonderful stuff. The baking here is out of this world. We pottered out via the shops, the chicken house and the art gallery, having thoroughly enjoyed our visit.

Rub your ceps with a damp cloth until most of the grit has come off - you may need to trim and peel the stem a little.

Don’t worry if the cap comes off the stem. Using a peeler, shave off strips of the mushroom on to small plates or one large platter and then do the same with a good hard pear. Sprinkle over toasted walnuts and drizzle with good oil. Finish with hard cheese and a scattering of fresh thyme leaves, salt and pepper.

Slice and toast a batch loaf, clean and thickly slice your mushrooms, then saute them with garlic and loads of butter. Stop cooking them while they still have some firmness, let them rest in the pan with a squeeze of lemon juice and a handful of chopped parsley. Place this on the toast and devour.

today’s world

Look back in time Katie Wright discovers a new tool from the Wikipedia stable that is set to make History easier to study s the school term begins, a new piece of internet kit has been launched to make history easier for all of us to understand. Histropedia is a timeline tool that uses the internet to help you visualise history Just launched at Wikimania, the Wikimedia Foundation’s annual conference, Histropedia’s ultimate goal is, “to create an interactive timeline for all of history - from the big bang to the present day.”

That’s a pretty lofty aim, but this new idea is now live at Histropedia.com.

And it’s beautifully simple. So much so that it could seriously help pupils starting the school term this week.

The idea is, you search for existing Wikipedia articles and then add them to a blank timeline with a photo. Simultaneous events are stacked on top of one other and you can zoom in or out to vary the overview - from millennia to day-by-day detail.

Right now there are a million Wikipedia articles in the Histropedia database. But if the entry you want to add doesn’t have dates specified, an easy editing tool lets you add them yourself. The interface is clean, clutter-free and a doddle to navigate.

Once you’ve got a timeline set up, that’s when the

A

educational advantages of Histropedia really kick in. A side panel contains more resources on each entry, including relevant Twitter pages, books and movies (with links to buy them) and, of course, the corresponding Wikipedia page. Having the page embedded is really handy, as you don’t have to keep swapping between windows to find out more.

Histropedia is set to get even better too. The authors, Navino Evans and Sean McBirnie, are now working on the next phase. They want to enable ready-made timelines by bringing entire Wikipedia categories on board.

So a pupil studying the Second World War, for example, could see all the major milestones of the conflict in just a couple of clicks.

It won’t surprise you to learn, then, that Evans trained as a teacher and that his idea was born out of a desire to create more engaging lesson plans.

“We have already seen first-hand the impact the tool can have in the classroom in trial lessons,” says Sean McBirnie, adding that such a visual tool “definitely helps students to grasp history more easily.”

If Histropedia takes off like Wikipedia has (it averages about 11 million edits a month), it looks set to become a hugely valuable resource for students and teachers alike.

The idea is, you search for existing Wikipedia articles and add them to a timeline

The nights are drawing in and The X Factor started last week, so that can only mean one thing - it’s time for the nation’s celebs to top up their spray tans and start practicing their paso faces as Strictly Come Dancing returns.

We’ll have to wait a couple of weeks for the competition to begin in earnest, but this special launch show will give us our first chance to assess the form of the stars taking part.

Their identities aren’t exactly a secret - the eclectic line-up, which includes everyone from Judy ‘Mother of Andy’ Murray (above) to former TOWIE star Mark Wright, via Radio 1 DJ Scott Mills, was confirmed last month. But now we’re about to discover just which professional dancer will be squiring which famous face around the dance floor, and see them all take part in a group number. Sounds like fun...

NEW TRICKS (BBC1, 9pm)

While other TV coppers may be loners and mavericks, never happier than when they are defying their superiors to carry out their own private investigation, New Tricks’ Unsolved Crime and Open Case Squad definitely have a gang mentality.

Even the fact that Gerry Standing (Dennis Waterman) is the only original member hasn’t dented their camaraderie - so far this series we’ve seen them discussing cases over a game of pool, taking in a few frames at a 10-pin bowling alley, and barreling along the streets of London on a ‘pedibus’.

As Denis Lawson, who plays Steve McAndrew, explains: “The team often acts as a surrogate family. Tamzin Outhwaite’s character meets a new man later in the series and we’re a bit like older brothers, we want to check him out when we meet this guy. We’re cross-examining him, making sure he is the right kind of guy for her.”

HOT TUB BRITAIN (ITV, 9pm)

At some point in this country’s recent history, a trend developed whereby sitting in an oversized bathtub in one’s garden is considered the height of luxury - as opposed to, say, the sign of insanity which our grandparents would no doubt have considered it.

As with all luxuries, though, the trend of hot tubs has transcended mere personal enjoyment and become a status symbol. Now, with an estimated one household in 10 possessing a hot tub (and, of course, the bigger they are the better), it’s a pretty lucrative business.

That can only be good news for Dennis Holmes, his son Dan Holmes and son-in-law Ross Phillipson, who are the proud owners of the country’s biggest hot-tub superstore who are followed by ITV’s cameras during their busiest season ever. Business is on the rise, but so is tension within the workforce.

SCOTT & BAILEY (ITV, 9pm)

Towards the end of the last series, Scott and Bailey fans were on the edge of their seats pondering what the future might hold for the two cops, or even if - dare we say it - the crime-fighting duo might cease to exist, thanks to their disagreement about Rachel’s - ahem - afterhours activities.

Breathe a sigh of relief, though, the detectives are back for another series, and while we did see Rachel (Suranne Jones, above left) and Janet (Lesley Sharp, right) kiss and make up in that final episode, we’ll soon find out how their relationship pans out. Especially as in this new series, they both go in front of the promotion board in the hope of replacing Rob Waddington as sergeant of Syndicate 9.

Tonight’s opening episode sees both the ladies attempting to put their careers first.

PAUL O’GRADY: FOR THE LOVE OF DOGS (ITV, 8.30pm)

Paul O’Grady has never been one of those comedians to curb his tongue. In January he generated a ripple of controversy after giving his trenchant views on Channel 4 strand Benefits Street, while most Sunday teatimes he’s venting his spleen on Radio 2.

It’s one of the reasons this acidtongued host is still one of Blighty’s best loved entertainers. Paul is often a seething cauldron of pent-up frustration, with an opinion on everything from Gail’s grouting in Coronation Street to the state of the UK. But if there’s one thing that can calm his anger it’s animals. In this series he is found chatting to the animals at Battersea Dogs and Cats Home.

“We’re making a programme out of me running amok, stealing puppies,” he explains, “It’s all about dogs, though.

They’re the real stars of this show.”

LORRAINE PASCALE: HOW TO BE A BETTER COOK (BBC2, 8.30pm)

When Ms Pascale first came on to our screens almost four years ago now, many of us questioned what this superslim former world-class supermodel could possibly know about good, hearty food. After all, Lorraine isn’t your typical chef - she doesn’t turn the air blue while barking out orders and she saunters around her kitchens with barely a hair out of place.

So actually, we were the ones left eating our words (pun intended) when, as it turned out, not only did she know rather a lot about home cooking, she could give Jamie Oliver a run for his money.

Yes, this lady is definitely a lot more than just a pretty face. Tonight, she returns with a six-part series, demonstrating a range of easy-to-follow recipes and simple culinary tips. Perfect good-looking cooking.

Sleepy Hollow is a 1999 AmericanGerman horror film directed by Tim Burton. Loosely inspired by the 1820 short story “The Legend of Sleepy Hollow” by Washington Irving, the film stars Johnny Depp and Christina Ricci, with Miranda Richardson, Michael Gambon, Casper Van Dien, and Jeffrey Jones in supporting roles.

The plot follows police constable Ichabod Crane (Depp) sent from New York City to investigate the murders in the village of Sleepy Hollow.

The film took $207 million worldwide, winning an Oscar for Best Art Direction. Geek fact: though the film’s screenplay is credited to Andrew Kevin Walker, most of it was actually ghostwritten by top British playwright Tom Stoppard.

My life

[

man and boy

Alpha males Phil Goodwin meets the Prime Minister

s the father of a small boy, my authority is regularly questioned and, more often than not, completely ignored. I am supposed to be the alpha male in my house, though you wouldn’t notice.

On my first day back at work after a holiday, packed with fun but riven with the usual insubordination, I was summoned by the Prime Minister’s office to attend the launch of a new family friendly policy. By chance, the event was to take place at a relationship counselling service near where I live in Exeter. After two weeks of Russian sun, sea and vodka and a late arrival by (delayed) train the night before, an appointment with David Cameron is something of a baptism of fire back into the world of reporting.

The PM is perfectly polite and friendly, what-

A

ever you may think of his politics, but the circus that accompanies him and the pressure to extract the correct response to the burning issue of the day adds stress. My brief ? To ask Dave how he felt about claims by disgruntled hunters that he was “hated in the countryside”. Welcome back, the news editor told me.

Having left the wife and son behind with the inlaws back in this year’s Winter Olympic capital of Sochi, I found myself alone at home. It is odd for the house to be so quiet but at least there was no competition for the bathroom or need to force feed a four-yearold cereal. For the first time in in two weeks of blissed-out existence in flipflops and board shorts, I squeezed into a suit, shoehorned on a pair of brogues and set off on foot to meet the Tory leader. It was the usual pantomime at the venue: close protection officers in smart suits and earpieces pacing around awaiting the inevitable late arrival, while high-flying PR types and advisors from Number 10 organised and corralled the Press pack and photographers. We were herded upstairs, brought down for a quick gawp and photo-shoot then whisked back up a flight of stairs while TV reporters did their thing. Myself and

[

[ a radio reporter were shown into a back room and told to wait for our audience. Eventually, Dave breezed in, glad-handed the pair of us, unbuttoned his jacket and plonked himself down on the chair.

“Right, who’s going first?” he said in his clipped, perfect diction. And off I went, with my slovenly, northern drawl. The opener was about the family credentials of the Government. He rattled off the reply, then dealt comfortably with the radio guy about fines for kids who miss school and devolution for Cornwall. The PM doesn’t hang about. In previous encounters I have been allocated one question. Most times, you’re lucky to get to the end of your sentence before he starts talking. Considering the interview over (the PRs actually call it ‘a huddle’), to my horror, Dave started to spring to his feet, clearly in a rush to get to North Cornwall. After all, I was at the end of my summer break, but his was just beginning. But I didn’t have what I needed.

“Sorry, could I ask one very quick question,” I piped up, a bit flustered, clumsily referring to the Countryside “Allowance” rather than Alliance. And to my amazement, the Prime Minister of Great Britain eased himself back into the comfy chair and proceeded to give me a full and considered answer. Total huddle time – 4 minutes and 51 seconds. Perfect.

That evening, during a Skype conversation with the family, I told my wife about the journey back and the PM’s visit. Thanks to the snapper, I even had an unflattering photo, complete with concentrating double chin, as proof that I was there.

I resolved to harness this new found authority afresh when young James returned. But: “Who is the Prime Minister?” he asked me. You just wait, I thought.
