CINEMA
GAMES RELEASE
Tom Clancy’s Ghost Recon Wildlands RELEASED 07/03/17
LOGAN RELEASED 01/03/17
Logan (Hugh Jackman) is aging. His rapid healing powers are failing, and the once powerful force of nature is becoming weaker. Where before he could fight harder and more brutally than anyone else, Wolverine has become ravaged with battle scars, and he knows that his mutation is slowly fading. Laura (Dafne Keen), has incredibly similar powers and abilities to Logan. In order to protect her from evil forces tracking her down, Logan, Professor Xavier (Patrick Stewart) and other members of the
X-Men must protect and guard her from those who would do her harm. The latest instalment in the epic X-Men cinematic franchise, Logan sees many of our favourite characters brought back to the big screen, including Hugh Jackman (Prisoners, X-Men: Days of Future Past) and Patrick Stewart (Star Trek, X-Men: Days of Future Past) in their most famous cinematic roles, alongside Stephen Merchant (The Office) as Caliban, and newcomer Dafne Keen as Laura.
The influential and vicious Santa Blanca drug cartel has turned the country into a narcostate, leading to lawlessness, fear, injustice, and violence. The cartel is on track to becoming a major underworld power and global threat. An all-out war is not the answer. A surgical, stealthy, lethal approach is the only way to stop the disease at its source. The Ghosts, an elite US Special Forces team, are sent behind enemy lines to wreak havoc, destabilize, and eventually break the alliance between the cartel and the corrupted government. Facing an almighty enemy in a massive and hostile environment, the Ghosts will need to make critical moral choices and engage in tough battles to complete their mission – their grittiest and most dangerous operation to date.
KONG: SKULL ISLAND RELEASED 10/03/17 In the 1970s, a group of explorers visit a remote and beautiful island. Little did they know, the island is home to more than ordinary wildlife. Captain James Conrad (Tom Hiddleston), an SAS officer turned global explorer, is hired by the government to help chart a mysterious island. Located within the Pacific Ocean, this remote destination is enchantingly beautiful, making Captain Conrad and his team jump at the opportunity. Lieutenant Colonel Packard (Samuel L. Jackson) is hired to help the group reach the island, with Bill Randa (John Goodman) serving the in the government’s interest during the mission. Alongside these men is Weaver (Brie Larson), a peace activist and photojournalist, brought along to document the findings.

BACK ON TRACK SPORTS GUIDE: MARCH 2017
The 2017 Formula One season returns at Australia on 26 March and ending in Abu Dhabi on 26 November. As the reigning Drivers’ Champion Nico Rosberg announced his retirement from the sport in December 2016, the 2017 season is set to be the first since 1994 in which the reigning champion did not compete. Mercedes is due to start the season as the defending Constructors’ Champion, having secured their third consecutive title at the 2016 Japanese Grand Prix. Whilst there are high expectations for Lewis Hamilton (above) to
prove unbeatable this season, Red Bull are hopeful to raise a strong challenge to Mercedes’ three-year reign of Formula 1. MELBOURNE CIRCUIT
First Grand Prix: 1996 Number of laps: 58 Circuit length: 5.303km Lap record: 1:24.125 Michael Schumacher (2004) 2016 winner: Nico Rosberg
THREE LIONS IN GERMANY England will begin 2017 with a trip to Dortmund to face Germany on Wed 22 March. A year after beating the world champions 3-2 in Berlin, The Three Lions will once again test themselves against Germany - this time at Borussia Dortmund’s Signal Iduna Park. The fixture will come four days before the 2018 FIFA World Cup qualifier against Lithuania at Wembley Stadium on Sunday 26 March. www.thefa.com
RINGSIDE
DAVID HAYE vs TONY BELLEW, 02 ARENA Former World champions David Haye and Tony Bellew will clash in a Heavyweight blockbuster at The O2 in London on 4 March 2017; live on Sky Sports Box Office. Former two-weight World champion Haye returned from a three and a half year absence from the ring in January at The O2 with a first round KO win over Mark De Mori, following that in the same setting four months later with a second round KO win over Arnold Gjergjaj. Bellew became a World champion in stunning fashion last summer when he climbed off the canvas in the first round against hard-hitting Ilunga Makabu to win the WBC Cruiserweight title with a devastating third round KO at Goodison Park in May. www.theo2.co.uk

RECIPE
Call us: 0191 4871834 Recipes by Kirsty Hale, Riverford Cook and www.riverford.co.uk/recipes
Rhubarb Yogurt Ice You could bling up this yogurt ice cream into a sundae, with strawberry sauce, chopped nuts and a dollop of our clotted cream. Yogurt ice cream can set firmer than ordinary ice cream, particularly if you use a low fat one. For a twist, try adding 5 chopped balls of stem ginger to the mix.
INGREDIENTS 250g rhubarb, cut into 4-5cm lengths 60g caster sugar 50ml water Zest of ½ & juice of 1 orange 2 tsp elderflower cordial 450g greek yogurt 2 tbsp crème fraîche or double cream
Serves: 6 Prep: 4.5 hours (inc freezing time) Cook: 15 mins Put the rhubarb, sugar, water, orange zest and juice in a saucepan. Heat gently, until the rhubarb is very tender. Remove from the heat, stir in the cordial, then leave to cool. Purée in a food processor, until as smooth as possible. Stir in the yogurt and double cream or crème fraîche. Transfer to a wide plastic container and pop the lid on. Freeze for approx 4 hrs, whisking well every hour to break up the ice crystals (or blitz it in a food processor each time for speed and ease).
