light 4 Star on Cilia

If you share the same birthsign as Cilia, read what we reveal about the star of Blind Date

In my view Whether or not it's deadly accurate or just a bit of harmless nonsense - and rm not being drawn into that debate, thanks very much - the attraction of astrology is undeniable. How many of us, faced with our zodiacal reading, flip the page without a second look? And how many more ignore the predictions of loved ones? Not a lot rd suggest. Our resident astrologer, Martine Delamere, believes passionately in her subject, so much so that almost any innocent remark about a particular person will trigger off a detailed explanation why it's typical of a Pisces to do this or a Gemini to do that. Now Martine has gone a stage further - she's laying her reputation on the line. If you turn to page 4, you'll see the first of what will be an occasional series in which a variety of wellknown people, very much in the public eye and very much the subject of endless interviews and profiles, are put through their astrological paces. The idea is that Martine first draws up a chart - in this instance of Cilia Black - and then confronts her subject with her findings. If Cilia is anything to go by, the results will be surprising, to say the least. See what you think (and what she thought) and then await further revelations as the weeks unfold.

Cl ITV, Saturday: Blind Date here really is a 'surprise surprise in store in finding the real Cilia Black, through examination of her birth chart. The bubbly, outgoing Cilia, who returns to ITV with Blind Date this Saturday, has another, more retiring, side to her nature. Would you believe that she cried with shyness on her first day at school? That even now she hates walking into a crowded room? It may seem unbelievable until you know that although Cilia was born on May 27 under the extrovert Sun sign of Gemini, her Ascendant sign - that sign which rises over the eastern horizon at the time of birth and which exerts a strong influence on a person's character - is introverted Cancer. 'People think rve got more front than Harrods. But when I'm out with friends, it won't be me who'll be the life and soul of the party; it'll be Bobby,' says Cilia, referring to her husband of 19 years. 'I hate walking into a crowded room. But then if I was like I am on telly all the time rd be a pain in the neck 'Even at rehearsals I don't perform. Fm more nervous than I am on the actual show. 'r ll never forget my first day at school One of my plaits came undone and I burst into tears, I was afraid to ask the teacher if she would do it for me! 'Once I settled in, school was wonderful. I could always joke my way out of a situation and when I discovered I could sing, that was another way of getting people to like me and I thought, "I like this". If a good reaction from her schoolmates sowed the first seeds of Cilia's showbusiness ambitions, the cinema sealed her fate. `My mother took me to the cinema three times a week and I used to see Doris Day and Natalie Wood and I'd look up and think "I really want some of that". 'There was always laughter in our house, which helped me, and my family always encouraged me. Even when I was 15 and asked what I was

going to do when I left school, I said: 'Tm going to be a star".' As she speaks, Cilia's voice softens and a look of wonderment flashes across her face, as if she can't quite believe her luck. For one brief moment, you can visualise her as a starstruck 15 year old in awe of the glamorous world of showbusiness. Having the Moon and Mars in Pisces in her chart means Cilia has a tendency to dream. And with Jupiter in Cancer, showing she has the ability to make money, it is no wonder her teenage dreams turned to gold. Cilia's chart also has Venus in Cancer - a very home-loving astral positioning - so, important as her career is to her, husband Bobby and sons Robert, Ben and Jack are her number one priority. When Bobby and I got married, really it was to have children. I would really have liked to have six - Bobby nearly passes out at the thought!' Cilia also has dreams of indulging her Cancerian mothering instincts by becoming a grandmother. `I can't wait. The nice thing Fm looking forward to about being a grandmother is that at the end of the day you can give them back. You can have all those wonderful times without having to put them to bed and being up all night.' The presence of Venus on her Ascendant also shows Cilia to be a worrier and a protective mother hen. 'I never stop worrying about the children. 'My ambitions now are for them,' she says, adding: 'if they're going to come into showbusiness, I don't want them to have to struggle. 'I know r11 vet their girlfriends too and I think I'll be the worst mother-inlaw in the world. I don't think anybody will be good enough for my sons - I even look to the Royal Family. I was saying to our Jack, if Princess Diana has a girl next time, you could be a prince! It's awful the way you plan your children's lives. Still, I do realise - and it's very hard - that there comes a time when you have to let go.' As a young mother whose talent had shot her into the Top Ten with 11

hit singles (and a further eight which made the charts) in the years between 1963 and 1974, Cilia had to find a balance between the demands of career and family. 'I frightened the life out of managers and agents when I said "count me out for six months", but six weeks after Robert was born I was nearly climbing the walls, which was no good for the baby. So we had to compromise.' That compromise didn't meet with everyone's approval 'When I went back to work, I came in for a lot of criticism. I had been voted Mum of the Year and people said: "Why don't they give it to the woman with six kids who takes in 10 foster kids!". I absolutely agreed with them, but I think it's important for mothers, if they've got a talent, to pursue it. I am ambitious and maybe if I hadn't gone into showbusiness I'd have been a hairdresser, working from home. If rd given it all up for my family, I don't think I would have been a better person. rd have felt ashamed of myself.' But in not giving up her career, Cilia feels she paid a price. 'It's awful when you're away - maybe as far off as Australia - and you get a phone call from your nanny saying, "he took his first steps today". I will always remember the pang because I was not there to witness that.' With the arrival of her third son, Jack, Cilia decided it was time to put her career on hold. 'I thought about what rd missed with the other two. I knew in my heart of hearts that he was going to be the last, so I thought Tm going to be the one to see those first steps.' Three years later Jack started at nursery school and Cilia resumed the

This year Cilia Black celebrates 25 years in showbusiness - and there is more to our Cilia than meets the eye. First, TVTimes astrologer Martine Delamere cast Cilia's horoscope. Then she confronted her with the surprising findings: believe it or not, Cilia is shy. Her reaction? You'll be amazed!

television career which led to Blind Date. She first saw the show in Australia and America. Then she discovered that London Weekend Television had bought the programme format, but feared it wouldn't be accepted by the Independent Broadcasting Authority. 'It is a very fine line with Blind Date, but you can have fun without being smutty. I knew it was a hit show, so when they asked me to do the pilot programme I said of

course I'll do it. I'm Mrs Clean, I'll get it past the IBA for you!' Cilia admits she isn't absolutely sure that the "Mrs Clean" image is such an advantage. 'Deep down, there's a sex siren dying to get out. I thought I looked like Jean Shrimpton till I went on the telly. You don't really look at yourself in the mirror.' With Cilia, there is more than a sex siren hidden inside. Saturn, the old man of the planets, occupies her 12th House making Cilia reluctant to let others know of her problems. The desire to keep her troubles secret applies not only to the public but even to her nearest and dearest. 'I don't like people feeling sorry for me. I play things down not because I'm any hero, but I get embarrassed. 'Once, when I had to go into hospital for a blood transfusion, I said I was just going in for a check up. I wouldn't even go in an ambulance.' So how did Cilia get to hospital without alarming her loved ones? Straightfaced, she says: 'I went in the Rolls-Royce - I don't like fuss.'

â?&#x2018; C4, Monday: American Football nglishman Mick Luckhurst takes his wife Terri out to dinner in America and a complete stranger sometimes offers to pick up the bill. It's not that Luckhurst's hard up - far from it. After dinner, the couple will go home to a palatial mansion set in 17 acres of Georgia countryside where they may, if they so wish, play a few holes of golf on either of the tWo courses they own So why do people want to spend hardearned cash on a man who is already rich? It's simple: Mick Luckhurst is an American hero; to be precise, an American football hero. Now, the 30-year-old who went to seek American fame and fortune and did both, is taking up a new and different sort of challenge presenting the game to an ever-growing British and European TV audience. Luckhurst was a travel-hungry 18-year-old when he originally left his Redbourn, Hertfordshire, home to take up a college exchange course in Minnesota. Part of the course involved his writing a thesis explaining why American football, almost a religion at home in the good ol' USA, wasn't popular anywhere else. So, back in those preC4 days, Luckhurst decided to get some practical knowledge of the sport he was studying. . . by playing it. It was a decision that caused a deal of derisive comment and illconcealed merriment among his American college colleagues. However, Luckhurst donned his tatty trainers, took three kicks at the ball. . . and twice broke the National Football League's record punt of 63 yards. The college kids stopped laughing and the team had found a great new kicker. His remarkable kicking won him a sports scholarship to the University of California and that in turn led to 16 offers of lucrative football contracts. One of them was with Atlanta Falcons, the team TVTIMES 3-9 September 1988

Avoid gridiron coverage. Tom Bedford explains

Mick Luckhurst's getting a kick out of his new career in televised sport

Rich kiddngs with whom he was to stay for seven years. 'American football is like rugby with pads on,' he explains, but the equipment is used as a weapon as much as a protective device. In rugby, you get such injuries like nose-bleeds; in American football you get injuries like a broken neck which finish your career. 'I reckon that I was hurt three times out of every five times I was tackled,' says Luckhurst who, at 6ft 2in is considered a bit of a shorty among the giants of the gridiron game. Injury is probably one reason why his American wife, the professional golfer Terri Moody, won't be too unhappy to see him put away the padding and pick up a microphone, Curiously enough their own relationship got off the ground in bone-crunching circumstances. They were driving home from their

third date when a 60mph crash with another car left them both in hospital for six weeks. 'People don't quite understand when I say it was the best thing that ever happened to us,' says Luckhurst today. 'I look on it as God saying, in not too subtle a way, 'we're going to get you two folks together!" ' They were married six months later. Luckhurst today is very much the American family man - he and Terri have two children, a log cabin and plan to set up a centre in Atlanta for underprivileged boys. The new television presenter says of gridiron: 'It's the first game to have come out of television rather than the other way round.' So he's finally discovered the answer to that college thesis question of years ago. The way the the game has taken off in Britain is great,'

he enthuses, 'and I'm looking forward so much to getting more involved in the game back home. 'At the age of only 30, I hadn't thought about giving up the game, but the offer to do this [commentary work] was too much to pass up. And I want people to pick up how excited I am about the game; you know it's the only sport where the rules are revised each year to make better TV viewing.' In true boy-makes-good fashion, this looks like the start of an exciting new departure for the sporting Mick Luckhurst. He also wants to present basketball (he was once a schoolboy international), rugby (he was picked for an English representational team in his younger days) and golf. Tll have to be careful what I dream about next,' says a smiling Mick Luckhurst, 'because so far my dreams have all come true.'

Krantz: 'I love the star treatment' multi-millionairess and a recognisable face in a score of countries. Scruples Princess Daisy, Sins, Mistral's Daughter and I'll Take Manhattan were all record-breakers, topping the best-seller lists here in the United States in hard cover and paperback More millions poured in after the books were turned into hit mini-series, with husband Steve Krantz producing three of them, including I21 Take Manhattan, to be screened on ITV on Sunday and Monday.

In 21 years Didase introductions have been the start of maw, many thousands of Love Stories ... If you would like a 'love story' of your own, a compatible partner to love and care for, and you are starting to wonder where you can find that special person, come to Dateline. Many tens of thousands of people of all ages and occupations, from all over the country, join Dateline every year looking for someone to love. They want to meet someone with the same hopes, ambitions and interests as themselves, and are simply not meeting them socially or at work. Dateline, the largest, longest established, and most successful computer dating agency in the world, opens up a whole new circle of compatible people; people who could be living very close to you, but who, without Dateline, you might never meet.

"I didn't believe in love" Separated, with a two year old son, at 22, Helen wanted to broaden her horizons, and to assuage any fears about using a dating agency, chose the biggest and longest standing, Dateline. Peter, a 25 year old legal executive, was a member of Rotoract and had a busy social life, but nothing resulted in him meeting a girl he found interesting in a romantic sense. Ultimately he decided to give Dateline a chance. Peter was "wowed" by the attractive brunette who answered the door when he arrived to meet Helen, and she was equally overwhelmed. "1 hadn't thought of love at first sight. It unnerved me a little bit," says Peter. They saw each other as often as possible, and "now see marriage in the fairly foreseeable future." "I didn't believe in love" laughs Helen "but I have all the classic symptoms. I can't believe my good fortune."

Youtkcan find love IF YOU ARE LOOKING FOR LOVE AND MARRIAGE, OR SIMPLY FRIENDS

Both Rita and John led full lives with many friends, but when John was introduced to Rita through Dateline he thought, 'A t last, there is someone I really want!'

Dateline has the widest selection of compatible people for you to meet, living as locally to you as you wish. Our reputation for a genuine, caring, and personal service is second to none, and Dateline's success speaks for itself in the many thousands of people who have found love and happiness through our service. Some of these true stories of people who were looking for someone special to share their lives, and were happily, amusingly, surprisingly matched by Dateline, are told in 'All you need is love' (a Sphere paperback £2.50).

If you would like to find out how Dateline's experience and care can work for you, simply complete the coupon below, and we will send you, totally free and without obligation, and of course in confidence, a full colour, comprehensive guide to exactly how Dateline works and also a FREE copy of 'A ll you need is love'.

â?&#x2018; ITV, Sunday: The Attic - The Hiding of Anne Frank msterdam hasn't changed much in the past 40 years. the canal-side houses still stand tall and proud. On Prinsengracht, there's a shop selling handmade shoes, and a bicycle repair shop. A modern design studio is the only sign that it's now 1988 - and a long time since the end of World War Two. Cross the bridge at the end of the street, and you'll see a queue of eager tourists, cameras in hand, outside number 263. Watch them emerge later, and their smiles are gone. People look different when they come out of Anne Frank's house. This is the house where eight Jewish people hid for two years of the war, and where they were arrested just nine months before it ended. It is the house only one of them, Mr Otto Frank, Anne's father, ever saw again, and he once ran his business from within its walls. Take a short tram ride from Prinsengracht, and you'll reach one of Amsterdam's newer suburbs, where Miep Gies (79) and her husband Jan (83) live. As a young woman, Miep worked at 263 Prinsengracht. When Germany invaded Holland in 1940, she became more than an employee to Otto - she was a lifeline for the family, whose story is told in The A ttic - The Hiding of A nne Frank. When the Franks - Otto, his wife Edith, Anne and her elder sister Margot went into hiding in the small annexe above the offices at number 263, Miep and Jan were the

Attic friendship: Anne and Miep (Lisa Jacobs and Mary Steenburgen)

The secret friend of Anne Frank In A ugust 1944, the Gestapo arrested eight Jews hiding in an A msterdam attic. One of them was A nne Frank, whose diaries have become world famous. K atie Ekberg went to Holland to eet Miep Gies, a silent hero in the A nne Frank story

Miep today, with her memories happy and sad - of Anne (top) whose Innermost thoughts were a closed book'. Anne's father Otto Frank (above) was the only survivor

only people who knew. Later, a family of three, the van Daans, joined them, then a dentist friend, Dr Albert Dussel. While Miep worked in the office below, the hidden Jews upstairs passed their daytime hours in darkness, and with a no-noise rule. Each morning, before the other workers arrived, Miep went upstairs to collect a shopping list, then used cash and coupons to buy enough meat for five adults and three children. For more than two years, she risked her own life shopping for the extra food, bringing news of the war, and being a friend to Anne, who was just 13 when she went into hiding. `You just did it, despite the risk,' says Miep. 'And you never showed any fear - to do so would put everyone in danger.' It seems hard now to ask Miep and Jan to talk about those days - but it's as if Anne Frank left Miep a special legacy in the diaries which she found scattered on the attic floor after the family were arrested. Occasionally, she and Jan return to the house on Prinsengracht. 'It's very . hard for us to go back,' she says. 'But once I get there and go upstairs to the attic I feel at home - I can feel that the people are there again.' Miep pauses and goes to a bureau to take out an old brown envelope. Inside are a few items she picked up with Anne's diaries in the attic room the silk shawl Anne made herself and wore when she brushed her hair, a shoe bag embroidered with the initials AF in red thread, and a yellow star a tragic reminder of the continued on page 24 ^

Win the world

eating snooker ace Dennis Taylor is something many try but few thieve and his prowess will be on display at the Fidelity International Unit Trusts snooker tournament which unfolds on ITV, starting on Saturday. But you could soon be seeing him at much closer quarters. For taking Taylor on at his own game is one of the exciting prizes in our 'Starry Eyes' competition this week (details begin on the left and the entry form is on page 24). Meanwhile, Taylor has some simple advice for his TVTimes opponent-to-be. 'Breathe on my glasses,' says the affable Irishman. 'I'm as blind as a bat without them.' Those square specs, now Taylor's trademark, are made specially to correct extreme short-sightedness. 'They might look as if they're upside down, but now I can see the balls on the table better than I have done for years,' warns the man who won the World Professional title in 1985. While he has the reputation of being the 'Mr Nice' of snooker, Taylor always plays to win. 'You've got to have the killer instinct,' he says, though I have to admit that it took me a good time to develop it. 'I'd been playing for 13

^ continued from page 22 years before I won a major tournament. It takes a lot of hard work and dedication, but you've got to have the will to win.' So is he too nice to •• throw the tantrums that have characterised other well-known players? Taylor smiles at that one. 'I like to think it's all down to the way I was brought up,' he says. It's when the pressure is on that Taylor is at his best - though even then, his sense of humour is never too far away. He has the traditional Irish way with words, and admits he often finds it hard to keep comments in check while he's playing. But while Taylor is too much of a gentleman to pot a rival's chances with • a well-timed joke, it's a weapon that could perhaps be used against him. 'I like to hear an Irishman telling Irish jokes. It's just the way we tell them, you know. . . like the one about the Irishman who thought the best way to win was to leave the triangle on the reds.' These days we see a dapper Dennis Taylor on

Dennis Taylor wins the greatest prize: snooker's world title, in 1985 our screens, but a few years ago the buttons were flying off his waistcoat with the regularity of reds popping into the pockets. At 5ft 9in and 141/2 stones he had a weighty problem. It wasn't helped by a weakness for good food, which he still has, and the irregular lifestyle all professional snooker players lead as a consequence of their job. Taylor doesn't eat

before a match, because he believes that being slightly hungry gives him a competitive edge. . . so maybe his TVTimes opponent should stand him a slap-up meal beforehand! When the game's over, it's a different story. 'I enjoy my food - most of the lads do,' he says. 'You play at night, so tend to go for a meal afterwards: perhaps an Indian or a Chinese. I love Chinese.' These days he doesn't go though the menu quite so often, and an Irish coffee at the end of a meal is a treat rather than a habit. His wife, Trish, who he says is a good cook, also helps to keep an eye on his waistline. 'These days I'm at home a lot more than I used to be,' he says. 'I don't have to play so many exhibition matches.' A gentleman to the last, he says he would be quite happy if his TVTimes opponent is a woman. 'There are some good ladies in snooker now,' says Dennis Taylor. Then that chuckle again. 'But Ni still play to win.' Carolyn Henderson

recent and astronomer Heather Couper (left) now turnsC4 to series, journalist Theviewers Stars (C4, Tuesday). Her enthusiasm for the heavens encourages to look skyward, but what sparked Heather's interest? 'When I was five I saw a green shooting star â&#x20AC;&#x201D; a rare occurrence. i went and told my parents, who didn't believe me. But the next day, I was proved right when the newspapers carried a sto star. I wa ry on!' about the rare green shooting was hooked from that moment

Millionaire musician Sting (pictured left), a guest on Aspel & Company (ITV, Saturday), has been called pretentious for the way he deals with serious issues in his songs. However, there is no doubting the sincerity of the articulate ex-schoolteacher who rose to fame with the rock group Police. He performs on behalf of Amnesty International and appeared at the Nelson Mandela concert. Michael Aspel has met him before. 'I think Sting is a very intelligent bloke,' he says. Aspel admits that he doesn't listen to much music these days, though the former schoolboy soloist still enjoys singing. So will he sing with Sting? 'I shouldn't think so,' he says. `Although I did sing with Paul McCartney on the show. I thought he accompanied me quite well.'

A cake, a few balloons and a postbag full of viewers' good wishes will probably mark the third birthday of TV-am's After Nine on Monday. 'When it began, I had no idea the programme would be such a staggering success,' says presenter Jayne Irving, who is especially proud of After Nines consumer campaigns and of the top stars she's interviewed. Omar Sharif, Michael York, Alan Alda and Richard Dreyfus are among the actors who've joined her in the studio. But journalist Jayne (below) isn't fazed by chatting with the stars. At least not very often. 'I was slightly nervous about Paul Newman,' she admits. But meeting my film idols is definitely a perk of the job.'

Mike Jardine received quick promotion in the last series from Detective Constable to Detective Sergeant. But becoming Taggart's sidekick means being the butt of Taggart's jokes. Nevertheless, Jardine admires his fellow Glaswegian. His iron self-discipline is reinforced by his lifestyle: he doesn't drink (which amazes Taggart) and is a church-going Christian (which astounds Taggart). He's played by James MacPherson, who took up amateur dramatics to compensate for a boring job in a laboratory, then found his hobby taking over. 'rm certainly not like Jardine,' he says. 'I do have a drink and I don't go to church.' Jean Taggart married her husband when he was a beat copper, and was later paralysed giving birth to their daughter Alison, now a nurse. Aged 47 and wheelchair-bound, she has developed an interest in the arts that far surpasses her husband's cultural enthusiasm. She organises opera outings for fellow incapacitated people. She's played by Harriet Buchan who, like Jean, was born in Glasgow. A former music teacher before turning to acting, she sings and plays piano both for pleasure and as an entertainer. To play Jean Taggart,' she says, 'I talked for hours with someone who has 20 years experience of being confined to a wheelchair.' n

Jim keeps mum Jim Henson, the man who created The Muppets and provided the voice behind Kermit, says he can't figure out why people always think he's a frog. 'I don't look like a frog,' he says, 'but parents often see me and say "It's Kermit!" I tell them I'm not, but I can speak like him. I'm even told I sound like Kermit when I'm not being him.' Henson's latest TV project should steer him clear of any further confusion over his identity; he's strictly behind the scenes in Jim

Henson Presents Mother Goose Stories (ITV, Monday), a new series

which brings popular nursery rhymes to life. 'I don't do any speaking in this one,' he says, `so I should avoid comments about sprouting wings.'

Just quackers! Not many people are happy to admit being a toad or a weasel. For actor David Jason, though, it's all part of a day's work providing the voices for well-known cartoon characters. His latest role is that of Count Duckula (ITV, Tuesday), a daffy vegetarian duck with a distinct dislike for blood. 'I've spent ages practising the voice,' says Jason. 'I'm stared at in the street because I'm walking along talking to myself in duck voice!' In another new ITV series, Tube Mice, the

voices of George Cole and Dennis Waterman are those of cartoon mice who have adventures in London's Underground. Tube Mice can be seen each week on Mondays and Thursdays.

Tim Child's eyes light up when he talks about the computer-based show Knightmare he invented, and which is now starting its second series (ITV, Saturday). The fantasy adventure game's world of dungeons, castles and evil animals (pictured right is a scene from the show) was an instant hit with youngsters when it started last year. Child, a quiet, pipe-smoking father of two, who says he likes nothing better than pottering around the Norfolk Broads on his old sailing boat, says: 'There's literally no limit to how far we can develop this programme. Each game is unique.' His inventive streak shouldn't come as too much of a surprise. . . his father and grandfather were pioneering aircraft designers. Pathologist Dr Stephen Andrews is a dedicated forensic scientist. In his laboratory, he produces facts to help Taggart's investigations. Outside work, Andrews has only two interests his family (he met his wife, Marlene, while practising forensic medicine in Australia) and his extensive stamp collection. He's played by dedicated traveller Robert Robertson. The Fife-born actor's interest in foreign lands takes up much of his spare time, and he goes abroad as often as he can is fine bassbaritone voice has been admired by people in many countries. Taggart's boss, Chief Superintendant Jack McVitie, is known as 'The Biscuit'. He was educated at public school, which gets under Taggart's skin. But, like Taggart, he fought his way up from the ranks and had to prove himself to working-class Glasgow coppers. He's played by lain Anders, who's married to writer and painter Jennie Turner. lain enjoys a game of bridge, and walking in the woods - he's something of an expert on mushrooms and on a wide range of other woodland fungi.

Guess who's sporting the mass of curls and dashing feathered hat? It's not surprising if you failed to spot Christopher Cazenove, famed for his romantic leads — the role he takes in Tears In The Rain (ITV, Friday). Also starring in the two-hour weepie is Leigh Lawson — read more about him in next week's TVTimes. Cazenove wears the costume in Dangerous Love, an epic he's making with Michael York, Claire Bloom and Emma Samms. 'I play a foppish villain in a silly wig,' he explains, clearly enjoying the change of role — and hairstyle.

SATURDAY The Bowery C4, 10.30am-12.10pm One of the first films reak to b away from the stagy studio confines, and portray the people, streets and characters of the city. Big, gruff Wallace Beery and little, pouty-mouthed Jackie Cooper were already big box-office together when director Raoul Walsh teamed them with slit-eyed George Raft and lovely Fay Wray in this bruising story of life in New York's East Side. 1933

We Want Our Mummy C4, 12.10pm-12.30pm There are some really funny moments in this short comedy, in which The Three Stooges go to Egypt to find a missing Egyptologist and inevitably fall foul of a marauding mummy. 1939

Boys' Town C4, 1.00pm-2.45pm Said to have been Louis B Mayer's favourite film, this true-ish story is blazingly effective sentiment, with Spencer Tracy winning his second consecutive Oscar, this time as the priest who founded a sanctuary for wayward boys. Tracy decided that the Academy Award he had won (which had in any case, been erroneously inscribed to 'Dick Tracy'!) really belonged to the real-life Flanagan. 1938

Vanishing Act ITV, 7.50pm-9.30pm Experienced mystery fans will be on familiar ground here. The story of the missing person who turns up in the form of a complete stranger has been going strong since Chase a Crooked Shadow in 1957. TV M 1986

Flight to Berlin C4, 9.00pm-10.45pm Director Christopher Petit casts Tusse Silberg as a woman who

Often several variations are made at the time of production for use according to the intended outlet.

leaves London for Berlin to escape her commitments, only to become caught up in a web of mystery and intrigue. Paul Freeman, seen in Raiders of the Lost A rk as the villainous Belloq and in the ITV series Y esterday's Dreams, is effective in support. 1983

Charley Hannah ITV, 10.35pm-12midnight A case of Miami V ice meets Family Ties as high-voltage action rides in tandem with warm domestic concerns. The film stars Robert Conrad as a tough Fort Lauderdale narcotics squad lawman, and, going one better than Martin Sheen, he plays alongside both of his actor sons â&#x20AC;&#x201D; Shane and Christian. TV M 1986

SUNDAY The Devil's Brother C4, 2.00pm-3.40pm The first, and now rarest, of Laurel and Hardy's 'comic operas', to be followed by Babes in Toyland, The Bohemian Girl and Swiss Miss. As Stanlio and 011io, inept bandits in 18th-century Italy, they get to play `kneesie-earsie-nosie' and finger-wiggle games, bungle an execution deliciously and end up crying and handing over money to one of their intended victims. All in all, a rare treat for fans. 1933

A Yank on the Burma Road C4, 3.40pm-4.55pm This M-G-M second-feature has the usual gloss the studio brought to all its products, plus two decent stars in Laraine Day and the up-and-coming Barry Nelson. Noted as the first American film to deal with those world-shattering events at Pearl Harbor, it has among its inscrutable orientals, Keye Luke and Philip Ahn, who moved on from Charlie Chan and Mr Moto mysteries to war films with the turn of the new decade. British title was the somewhat less provocative China Caravan. 1942

Bell, Book and Candle C4, 10.05pm-12midnight This delightful witchcraft comedy is fun all the way and allows James Stewart, Jack Lemmon and Kim Novak to let

Removing his cigarette for a start, Fr Flanagan (Spencer Tracy) gets tough with W hitey (Mickey Rooney) in 'Boys' Town' their hair down in no uncertain fashion, Lemmon in particular having a great time as an impish warlock. And watch out for a scene-stealing Siamese cat called Pyewacket. 1958

Umbartha (The Threshold) C4, l2midnight-2.SOam A long and sometimes harrowing film about life in a rescue centre for 'abandoned women'. 1982

MONDAY Animalympics ITV, 10.30am-12noon Perhaps the world's first disco feature cartoon, sadly topical when it came out in 1980 in view of that year's troubled Olympics. At least this one, although fun rather than funny, has a happy ending, as two of the contestants from rival countries (boy and girl, one hastens to add) fall in love and cross the finishing line holding paws. Would that real-life problems were as easily solved. 1979

Fancy Pants C4, 2.00pm-3.45pm Bob Hope reverts to almost pure Mack Sennett slapstick in this riotous, glowinglyTechnicolored comedy, which pokes fun at everything from westerns to English gentlemen. Hope plays Humphrey, an actor hired to pose as an English butler by an adventurer who wants to marry Agatha, daughter of the wealthy Floud family. Agatha's social-climbing mother is so impressed that she drags Humphrey back west to teach the tearaway Agatha how to behave as a proper eastern lady. 1950

Word of Honor C4, 8.30pm-10.20pm Don't be put off by the opening beauty pageant (it later casts a sinister shadow) because this is an engrossing drama on the freedom of the press: a seasoned newspaperman risks a prison sentence by refusing to reveal confidential sources for a shocking story involving a prominent citizen. As the hot-tempered reporter, Karl Malden is not an always sympathetic character and the close attention paid to his family life suggests that the producers were thinking in terms of a series. TV M 1980

TUESDAY The Corsican Brothers ITV, 10.30am-12.15pm Britain's Trevor Eve steps confidently into the shoes of Douglas Fairbanks Jr, who starred in the 1940 screen version of this Alexandre Dumas tale of Siamese twin boys, who are separated successfully at birth but whose lives are thereafter linked for ever, in vendetta-torn Corsica. TV M 1984

Odette C4, 2.00pm-4.10pm One of Anna Neagle's best performances as the famous war heroine in an otherwise fairly routine war film, based on the best-selling book by Jerrard Tickell. 1950

Three Little Bears C4, 4.10pm-4.30pm The Three Stooges loose on a golf course. Trees fall, divots fly and Larry discovers an obstacle continued overpage

continued from page 33 on the green that proves to be an interminable root and ruins half the course as he tries to pull it out. 1935

Hud C4, 9.00pm-11.05pm Martin Ritt's brilliant 'modern western'. Paul Newman dominates the film as Hud, 'the man with the barbed-wire soul', while Patricia Neal's sensitive portrayal as Alma won her an Academy Award. Other Oscars went to Melvyn Douglas as Best Supporting Actor, and to veteran cinematographer James Wong Howe for his fine blackand-white camerawork. Newman was also nominated for an Academy Award for his uncompromising portrayal but lost to Sidney Poitier, who won the Oscar for his performance in Lilies of the Field. 1963

Ransom Money ITV, 12.30am-2.00am A little-seen thriller featuring burly Broderick Crawford as a detective who cleverly unwinds an intricate electronic web woven by a sinister kidnapper, even using one of the criminal's own devices to try to bring him 1971 to book.

WEDNESDAY Sandokan the Great ITV, 10.30am-12.30pm The British distributors took 25

minutes out of this adventure set in 19th-century Borneo, to accommodate it in a double-bill with Elvis Presley's Girl Happy. But this is the full original version of how a turbanned Steve Reeves as Sandokan, son of a sultan, defied the might of the British army. Spanish actor Leo Anchoriz enjoys himself as the aggressive Lord Hillock and there's some vividly-coloured action 1963 scenes.

version of Oscar Wilde's play, produced and directed by Sir Alexander Korda. The Wilde wit is the thing, of course, but the evergreen piece is played to the hilt by its distinguished cast. It includes Paulette Goddard, Michael Wilding, Hugh Williams, Glynis Johns and, in one of his earliest films, Michael Medwin, who turned producer after making about 70 screen appearances, but still 1947 turns up occasionally.

The Next Man

So You Want to Build a House

ITV, 2.00am-4.00am Sean Connery triumphs over offbeat casting as an Arab politician who is the target of a glamorous assassin, played by attractive newcomer Cornelia Sharpe. Connery's authoritative performance dominates the 1976 film.

THURSDAY The London Connection ITV, 10.30am-12.05pm A mild Disney action comedy frolic about two youthful American secret agents loose in London. Although one feels the heroes should be 12 rather than 20 to pep up the plot, the 1979 special effects are good.

C4, 6.45pm-7.00pm In an attempt to avoid living with his mother-in-law, Joe McDoakes, 'the man behind the 8-ball', attempts to construct his own house. For sheer disaster, the results are unparalleled since Laurel and Hardy's The 1948 Finishing Touch.

Oblomov C4, 11.55pm-2.35am A lyrical adaptation by writer-director Nikita Mikhalkov of Ivan Goncharov's famous mid-19th-century novel about a civil servant and absentee landowner who spends most of his days in bed. 1979

ITV, 12.15am-2.00am The action in this film, set in the Japan of the mid 19th century,

comes on like a combination of kung-fu movie, western and oriental fantasy. 1978

FRIDAY Tommy the Toreador ITV, 10.30am-12noon No time at all for a siesta in this enjoyable light-weight comedy with music, a British version of the type of family fare Elvis Presley turned out in the early 1960 Sixties.

Deliver us from Evil ITV, 12.30am-2.00am A curious cross between The Treasure of the Sierra Madre and Deliverance, this drama about greed takes place during a camping trip in a remote mountainous region. Five members of a hunting party decide to track down human quarry â&#x20AC;&#x201D; a criminal on the run with half a million TV M 1974 dollars.

The Maze C4, 1.00am-2.35am This clammy curiosity, set largely in a creepy castle and the maze that contains its deadly secret, was originally made in 3-D, but released 'flat' in some countries. Director William Cameron Menzies moves his bizarre story eerily through striking sets that he 1953 designed himself.

Brow glistening, you empty your wallet into the barman's hand. Does a pint of Stella really cost that much, you wonder? It does indeed. How else could we possibly afford

the swingeing sums demanded of us to bag the choicest European barley? Or pay the king's ransom necessary to secure the pick of Czech hops? (The Saaz variety and only the most fragrant female hops at that.)

Our price ays seems to bring on 1, cold sweat The time-consuming business of allowing Stella to mature twice as long as ordinary beers also swallows up your money.

Until, that is, the ecstasy of those first few sips convinces you otherwise. And makes paying for Stella seem no sweat at all.

Parting with so much of it can seem nothing short of agony.

In today's programme, Heather's destinations include a voyaging canoe in Hawaii and a Jacuzzi in California, as she travels in search of our changing relationship with the stars. Once people relied upon the stars for their very existence: they were a clock, a calendar and beacons to navigate by. But those were the days when people were Earthbound, before they started to travel in space. And as Heather discovers, there are some bold people who are thinking far beyond the moon and planets. They are already drawing up plans for starships: craft that will carry the first human beings to the stars.

The Museum contains some of the most gruesome relics of a century of crime in London. Newly discovered post mortem photographs of three of The Ripper's victims; the gallstones and teeth of Mrs Duran Deacon, last victim of Haigh, the acid bath murderer; a pyjama jacket wrapped around a buried body; the clue that convicted Dr Crippen of the murder of his wife; the kitchen where mass murderer Dennis Nilsen dismembered his victims; and the poison pellet that killed Bulgarian broadcaster Georgi Markov - just some of the stories behind 100 years of crime in London.

The Huerta de Valencia one of Europe's most productive agricultural areas, has a long history reaching back to the Arabs of alAndalus (Muslim Spain). Water is scarce, and its distribution is the key to the region's prosperity. It is governed by ancient regulations by which all farmers who practise irrigation are bound. A special court, the Tribunal de las Aguas, exists to make sure that the regulations are observed. The court settles arguments and fines are imposed, paid in an ancient currency. The programme looks at ancient principles played out in present day agricultural life.

Millions fell for the Fahrer fakery - from adoring frauleins to British Prime Minister Neville Chamberlain. See 10.00pm

10.00pm True Stories: Peace In Our Time? 'This is a tale of intrigue, ambition, power, betrayal... the theme is one of honour - those who had it and those who lost it.' With these words (over music specially composed and performed by Eric Clapton) Nicol Williamson introduces the extraordinary story of the several meetings between Hitler and Chamberlain in September 1938. This new film made by two Czech ex-patriates, narrated by Nicol Williamson observes the ruthless conspiracy and political ambition of a Prime Minister who, alone, decided that Czechoslovakia could not, and therefore should not, be protected against Hitler. The crowd cheered when Chamberlain announced 'Peace in our time', but the upshot was Hitler's seizure of Czechoslovakia, which opened the road to war.

Strangers will envy you, wondering how you have the time and money to have a holiday abroad while everyone else is pale. Startle Impress your friends Use Supertan and your friends will think you have just come back from the Bahamas! The tan you get is golden bronze, the kind you see on top magazine models. No more creams or the worry of going orange, and only minimal exposure to the sun. Supertan gives your body what it needs to produce a natural brown pigment called MELANIN.

ONE COUNTRY, TWO WORLDS

Scooby Doo

South Africa is a wealthy country, ruled by a white government which spends most of its wealth on the wellbeing of its white people. This awardwinning film shows how black and coloured children, who outnumber the white children by seven to one, try to survive under South Africa's apartheid system. The luckier ones live in crudely built houses in the black townships but, for many, home is a polythene-covered shack. Those who don't have to work to support their families, go to black-only schools where the education is poor. They seldom meet or get to know white children because the government wants it that way. But the black children are beginning to protest against the unjust laws. Narrated by Amy Stewart.

The right road? The Viewpoint '88 documentary The Road A head ITV's look at the present construction of the M40 extension from Oxford to Birmingham - was a brilliant and well balanced examination of the effects of a motorway on our environment. The unusual mix of superb wildlife photography and the technical wonders of the construction crews made engrossing viewing. The programme made us think about the stories behind these tarmac fingers that stretch all over the country. I, for one, will never again be able to travel on a motorway without considering what might have been there not so long ago. Nick Brett Swindon, Wiltshire

Pounding a new beat... The new format for ITV's The Bill, as two half-hour episodes a week instead of weekly one-hour programmes, is spoiling a good series. It makes it fragmented and incoherent.

Susan F Moreland Market Drayton, Salop

Wilms 247 Tottenham Court Road London W112 OAU

-fortune!

S T. Thames TV, which produces The Bill, says the two half-hour episodes are designed along exactly the same lines as the one-hour programmes. A s for John Salthouse, he decided he did not want to continue in the series, so his character was moved to another police station. But what the future holds, nobody knows..

Sex appeal in low Gere In the TVTimes feature on Richard Gere (left) your writer asks how many women have managed to be dispassionate about this actor. Well, at risk of being thought an oddity, here is one who is totally dispassionate. I have never found Richard Gere particularly attractive, because I don't like his eyes. As for his acting ability, he is vastly overrated. And, if he genuinely dislikes being dubbed a 'sex symbol', he should be more particular about what he does on screen. His nude scenes in the film A merican Gigolo were in extremely bad taste, and in The Honorary Consul far worse - one scene left nothing to the imagination. It's no good whingeing about being a sex symbol while playing tacky parts. Mrs D Richards Bridgend, Mid Glamorgan

How disappointed I am with the eagerly awaited new series of The Bill. The reason: the departure of Det Insp Galloway, played by John Salthouse (above, right). He was pure dynamite. Without him, the CID appears to be in a state of chaos.

A booming economy My wife and I have adopted a new hobby while watching our favourite serials. It's called Spot the Microphone. The boom appears in several programmes, usually at the top of the TV screen, but the worst offender is St Elsewhere, on C4. We saw the microphone 13 times in one episode. Are American shows made to such tight budgets that these shots can't be wasted?

High note for opera buffs There are some who think Mozart's Don Giovanni is the greatest opera ever written.

The RSPCA does not outrightly condemn angling as a sport but does believe that fish can experience pain. It has produced a code of practice for anglers, to lessen the chances of suffering - suggesting humane lcilling of fish and the use of single, barbless hooks, for example. W e're sure Roger Daltrey takes great care to avoid any unnecessary suffering.

s a former Olympic swimmer, Sharron Davies still keeps fit and trim - but she's not fanatical about it, and she doesn't bother to count calories. She prefers to follow a sensible exercise routine and a healthy diet, so not surprisingly, fish is a firm favourite. 'I grew up in Plymouth and I used to go out fishing with my grandfather. We caught cod, coley and hake. It was wonderful, with the most divine fresh flavour,' says Sharron, 25, an Olympic silver-medal winner who was once Sports Woman of the Year. Sharron will be continuing the Olympic theme with other sporting personalities in a special edition of 3-2-1 on Saturday, money and prizes from which will be donated to Sports Aid Trust, a charity to help young people develop their sporting talents. There's no doubt that swimming is the best allround exercise,' says Sharron. But I find it less time-consuming to nip over to my husband's gym for a half-hour work-out.' Sharron's husband of just a year, John Crisp, runs a gym near Heathrow. At 5ft 10in and 10Vast,

Sharron looks striking. 'To my mind, the secret is being in proportion. If you have big bones and wide shoulders, you'll look strange if the rest of you is skinny,' she says. There's no shame in being a size 14 - so long as the whole you is in proportion. At my height it doesn't even show if I put on a few pounds, but some people would get neurotic about it' Sharron never counts calories. 'I eat hardly any red meat these days. If Fm a guest and so long as the meat is burnt to a cinder, FR eat it. But Fm too much of an animal lover, really.' Sharron's Great Dane Ben, fat black cat Bill, and rabbit called Sausage will vouch for this! We have a fabulous fishmonger locally. I usually bake fish in foil with herbs and lemon juice and serve it with lots of fresh vegetables. Or I make a fish pâté, or do lovely everyday dishes such as smoked haddock crumble, fishcakes, or fish kebabs. 'John works shifts. I always cook supper if he's home.

t 21 months old, Mickey Rooney climbed on stage in a dinner jacket that wouldn't fit a chimpanzee and declared: 'Ladies and gentlemen, I'm going to sing, I'm going to dance. I want to spend my whole life entertaining you and I'm going to start right now.' Sixty-six years later, he's still up there doing what he lives and breathes for, polishing every performance as if it were his last, relishing every curtain-up as much as he did when he was the biggest star in the world. He's the proverbial clown, who blindly loves the business that has kicked him in the teeth, who has wisecracked and back-slapped and gone on with the show through bankruptcy, unpopularity and seven ruinous marriages that didn't teach him a lesson until 14 years ago, when he then married his eighth and longest-lasting wife. Mickey Rooney still loves the ladies, but these days, the legendary charmer just twinkles innocently, calls you darling, and says that despite the offers, he keeps himself in place. By that he means at home in California with his wife Jan, the attractive, blonde country and western star he married in 1974. At various times, his nine children and three grandchildren call in. 'Home really is the hunter for me,' he says. 'I'm not a player - you follow me? Fm not a guy] who hangs out in bars, I'm not looking for one-night stands. If Pd been single these past few years, I might have gone to bed with maybe 200, 300 women. 'The name alone can get you into romantic spots.. . but I don't look for anything. I just go about my business.' And being Mickey Rooney is big business. Nobody believed him 10 years ago when he said he was retiring, but no one blamed him either. He was, as he fully admits, a famous hasbeen', not exactly washed-up but a world away

from the golden days of nine films a year, 5000 dollars a week as a child star. By the time he was 45, he had earned 12 million dollars. He was 'as famous as fame can make you' in those days - or maybe as famous as marriage to leggy beauties can make you. The wives were always taller. 'I refuse to date midgets,' he says, drawing himself up to his full 5ft 3in. But he does have a tip for short men marrying l7-year-olds, as he did with wife number two, beauty queen Betty Jane Rase, in 1944. Wait until she's stopped growing.' Betty Jane grew four inches taller while he was away in the Army. When he got home, 'The door opened, Betty Jane said "Hi", and there I was staring right at her navel. If she'd stayed short, the marriage might have been longer. But not much.' His first wife was the stunning Ava Gardner. He was world famous, she was unknown, just starting out in Hollywood. They married when he was 21, she was 19, and separated after a year of turmoil. Some say that's when Rooney's trouble with women really started - the wild, untameable Ava leaving him to mope, much as she left Frank Sinatra, years later. Rooney admits he loved

Dateline America

He's a genuine showbusiness legend the eighttimes-wed former child star whose career refuses to die — despite his description of himself as a hasbeen. As he prepares to take London's W est End by storm, Mickey Rooney talks to TVTimes —

OC4, Saturday: Boys' Town Ava even more once he lost her, but his days of heart-searching are long gone. He died a little at every divorce, he says. And his career seemed to fade with each marriage. In 1938, he made eight films, including the classic Boys' Town (C4, Saturday), but when he married wife number three, actress Martha Vickers, he had made only three films in two years. By 1952, and wife number four, Elaine Mahnken, he was down to one film a year. In 1962, he was in the bankruptcy court assets 1500 dollars, liabilities 346,513 dollars and 12 cents. Gambling was partly to blame 55,000 dollars in one night in Las Vegas, 165,000 dollars 'in a single destructive year. He was expelled from two golf clubs - and even worse, he says, from Diners Club. Barred from an Oscars dinner, he admits that 'The only way I could get into a motion picture was by buying a ticket at the box office.' But the comebacks kept coming, and in 1979 he made one of Hollywood's biggest ever returns when he was offered a little musical and burlesque show called Sugar Babies, He tackled it wholeheartedly, perfected it - using sketches learned AININIMWSISEMPia >fr

Hats off to Mickey Rooney, star of Broadway's smash-hit musical 'Sugar Babies', opening in London this month with veteran costar Ann Miller (above left). Far left: with Spencer Tracy in the 1938 movie 'Boys' Town' (C4, Saturday). Above, right: he's still keeping the autograph hunters happy

from his father, comic Joe Yule - made it a smash-hit on Broadway and this month opens in the West End with veteran co-star Ann Miller. Bounding about his office, phones ringing, secretaries answering questions about his various businesses, he delights in recounting how his fortunes have changed. All of it, he agrees, is due to

Sugar Babies which led to film offers, a subsequent Oscar nomination for his role in The Black Stallion, an Emmy in 1982 for his portrayal of a mentally handicapped man in the television film Bill, and a packed portfolio of distinguished work following on from then. He has written six novels and is setting up his own film production company, 'Sunshine Pictures', with plans for a TV series based on the original Boys' Town. Once again, he will play bad boy Whitey Marsh, now Father Whitey Marsh, caretaker to troubled boys and girls. In addition, Rooney runs a yoghurt business, tours with his autobiographical one-man show Mickey Rooney and Mickey Rooney, keeps a weather eye on his racehorses and their offspring and still plays a round a day of his beloved golf. Asked how he manages to do all this - and more he replies. 'I don't drink whisky, I don't smoke cigarettes, I don't abuse myself and, of course, my mainstream of vitality is derived from God - I've been a newborn Christian for 20 years.' He was delighted to hear about C4 screening Boys' Town, for which he received a special Oscar, but said he wouldn't be sitting down to watch it. 'I'm going to say something strange to you now, but I don't watch Mickey Rooney pictures. Do you laiow, I'm probably the only person in Hollywood who has made more than 200 pictures but never watches them.' Others do in their millions. He has the second most recognised face in the world, according to a recent survey that put Richard Nixon at number one, and says he was 'humbled' on a trip to Israel when he was hailed by both Jews and Arabs. 'My life has been a kind of love affair,' he says. 'I think you either like Mickey Rooney or you don't. When people do, when they reach out to me in the theatre, they're my real family. They are the ones I love and adore, because I live on the stage. That's where I belong.' inff

Credit due About six years ago, I had quite a lot of trouble controlling my spending. The reasons are irrelevant, but my husband finally threatened to take away my cheque book, as we had a joint account. Now divorced and on income support and housing benefit, the money does not go far, but the temptations to spend are ever-present. Knowing my own weakness, I have a terror of getting into a web of debt. So I have denied myself both cheque book and any form of credit card. All I possess is a building society account. OK so it is inconvenient not to be able to sign my name with a flourish on a cheque or credit slip, but I would sooner have this than face the demands of a debt collector. It can be done, I promise. Ms L A Simcock Bolton Greater Manchester

Congratulations on achieving this success. Buy now, pay later sounds so easy, but the day of reckoning always arrives. If anyone gets into debt, it is advisable to go to a Citizens' A dvice Bureau or Consumer Unit, where the financial adviser will write letters on your behalf and suggest the best way to repay money owing.

Young love You may think me silly, but I must confide in someone. I am madly in love with five or six famous people, including George Michael and Bruce Willis Not unusual for a 14-year-old, perhaps, but it means I am either on a real high, having seen them on TV, or terribly low and reduced to tears. I have such huge fantasies about them that I am beginning to worry if this is dangerous. Please don't disapprove, as I am sure it is because I am so ugly and know I will never have a boyfriend. Cathy Glamorgan

Far from disapproving, my heart goes out to you. Fantasies only become dangerous if the dreamer hangs around making herself, or himself a physical nuisance. A nd I remember my own romantic day-dreams too vividly to disapprove. A s

for thinking yourself ugly, nobody is totally so. Y ou may not be conventionally pretty, but by developing a style of your own and making the best of your good points, you will become known for your individuality. Invest in some professional advice from a beauty salon. W e all have one good feature, be it eyes, hair or skin. Y ou will be shown how to accentuate this. Good luck, and one day you will find a fleshand-blood boyfriend so much more fun than your fantasies.

Brace yourself I am 12 years old and sometimes don't get on with my mum. She wants me to have a brace on my teeth, and I don't because I know I shall be teased about it at school, and when I am teased I go red. I have problems already when my friends make jokes about me going out with boys. I turn beetroot. What can I do, please? Ginny C Nottingham

W hat a shame. Y ou sound so like me at your age. Y ou blush because you are shy, you are shy because you are not very old, and the thought of a brace makes you even more selfconscious. Nevertheless, please agree with your mum. I did with mine and, although it was not very nice, I am forever grateful as people have always praised my even teeth. Y ou will be teased, of course, and the best•way to counteract this is to be the first to laugh at yourself. Don't pull your top lip down. Grin and bear it and joke about the hardware. Blushing over boys is part of growing up. A gain, if you feel a flush coming on, say, `Here I go again. Old tomato face,' and puncture the pleasure of

I wonder if my rings are preventing me from making new friends, in the truest sense. Would it be too personal to ask what you did yourself? Peggy Booth Ipswich

Wisdom of the years My husband and I are both 83 years old, and have been married for 56 years. As you can imagine, we hive had to change our views as time has passed and wonder if a few words of advice to anxious parents, learned from our own son and daughter-in-law, would be helpful. Our very pretty grand-daughter told her parents she was leaving home to live with her boyfriend for a year. He had a nice home and a good job, but it is not always easy to accept these decisions. When I asked what they had said to her, they replied, 'Nothing. We gave no advice and no word of reproach, lest we lost her for good.' The young couple spent their year together and then had a lovely wedding, and four years after are now happily settled in their new home. A young friend of hers explained to me recently, 'If you are not sure, a trial relationship can save a divorce.' I am sure none of us were so tolerant when we were younger. Mr and Mrs G Smith Wiltshire

I send you SIO for my Letter of The W eek for your wise attitude in adapting to life. It is so easy to alienate the young. If they have been brought up to know right from wrong, and unless they ask for advice, they must be allowed to make their own decisions and learn from their mistakes, as we all had to do.

The answer depends on you as an individual W hen I was a widow for nearly four years, I not only wore my rings but added my late husband's wedding ring to my hand. W hen I planned to remarry, I put away both these wedding rings. I now wear my present husband's wedding zing, but with my original engagement ring on the same finger. Rings of this kind remind people of commitments made and segments of life that are past but not forgotten. My present husband was also widowed and we never hesitate to bring up our previous partners' names, likes and dislikes when the occasion arises.

To return to the subject of funeral expenses, I should like to draw readers' attention to the Funeral Pre-Payment Plan run by the Cooperative Funeral Service Department. You can buy certificates in multiples of Z100, and 50 per cent of the amount you have put down is returned in vouchers which can be used for goods at your Co-op shop. If that isn't a bargain, I don't know what is!

I wonder if the following tip would appeal to people with elderly parents or relatives? Whenever any member of the family writes to me, they always enclose a stamp or a stamped, addressed envelope.

Ringing off? I realise my request may seem trivial, but I do so

admire your sound common sense. I have been widowed for four years and wonder when one should consider removing one's rings?

The operative word in your letter is all. If your parents really make you do it all then I agree it is unfair. But are you exaggerating a little bit? I think you should keep your own MOM tidy and help with other chores, sharing them with the rest of the family. Get everyone together and put this to them. if there is still friction, perhaps you could enlist the help of one of your mistresses at school A tactful word from her"just might work wonders.

Last words

You published a letter recently begging readers to respect parking bays specifically designated for the disabled. I am sure the majority of drivers do this, but I feel it necessary to point out that many motorists are amazed at the apparent indiscriminate procedure under which the orange disabled badges are issued. As I understand it, if the person for whom the badge was issued is not in the car then it should not be displayed, but I feel many drivers use them as a passport to park virtually anywhere. Michael St John- Hall

I think this is a most helpful idea. I always think a book of stamps and writing paper one of the nicest presents to give to someone in hospital, or to anyone Newport, Gwent who lives alone.

There are also dozens of other super books — fact and fiction — with between 25% and 50% OFF publishers' prices. Great choice . . . great authors ... and savings all the way! With World Books you're spoilt for choice. All today's favourite authors, all their biggest bestsellers. The latest on cookery, gardening and other popular hobbies. Books to entertain young children, and to help older

ones with homework and school projects. Atlases, dictionaries and encyclopedias. Books full of time-saving, money-saving tips. And many more ... all at savings you'll find hard to beat. In return for your great introductory savings and the big discounts you'll enjoy as a member, all we ask is that you take at least one book a month during your first six months. After that, it's up to you how many, or how few, you choose.
