‘If you need it we’ve probably got it’ Electrician Tony Nightingale always wanted to open his own shop – and now he has branches across Bristol! The latest one, on Whiteladies Road, is stocked with all the electrical appliances you would expect, plus lots more besides.

t was perhaps something of a gamble for a family-run electrical and hardware shop to open on Whiteladies Road, more often associated with its trendy bars and high end furniture stores. But then A. Nightingale’s risks have always paid off. “I wasn’t sure what the reaction would be like, but it’s been really positive,” says owner Tony Nightingale. “We opened a few weeks ago and I think people are pleased to have something a little bit different to the usual bars and stores – and something so handy!” Electrician Tony had been a contractor for over 20 years when he and partner Vicky Lewis opened their family-run electrical and hardware store, A. Nightingale in 2008.

“When I did my electrician apprenticeship, the company I did it for owned a hardware store and since then I’ve always wanted to open my own shop. So when the flower store on Shirehampton’s high street closed its doors, I saw an opportunity and grasped it.” A. Nightingale opened just as the experts announced the economic downturn and the family wondered if they had made a mistake. But the Shirehampton store weathered the storm and become a success story in its own right after extending into two neighbouring premises. Five years later, business continued to boom and the family opened a shop in Sea Mills. Now, Tony adds another store to his Bristol chain on the affluent Clifton strip. “Our latest shop consists of everything that we stock at our Shirehampton and Sea Mills stores,” says Tony. “We offer a wide selection of lighting and accessories, which is what we started out with when we opened our first branch six years ago. “Our lights range from table lamps and floor lamps to ceiling lighting and LED lights. We sell everything from your inexpensive pendant fittings right up to your high quality chandeliers. We also sell a wide choice of shades and bulbs.” But the shop sells much more than its lighting range; it also offers everything you could need for DIY jobs around the home and garden, from tools and paintbrushes to gardening gloves and trowels. There’s a wide range of electrical appliances, including kettles, toasters, heaters and fans, as well as homeware and gifts such as clocks and photo frames. Floor-to-ceiling glass cabinets display the extensive selection of mobile phone covers and computer accessories. The Whiteladies Road store also boasts an on-site cobbler and offers shoe repairs, key cutting and engraving services. “If you need it, we’ve probably got it,” laughs Tony. “A lot of our sales are seasonal, so at the moment we are selling a lot of gardening products while in the winter we tend to sell more lighting and light bulbs. “The shoe repair and key cutting services are proving really popular too.” And it doesn’t stop there – the shop also offers an electrical installation and repair service to both domestic and business customers. “I’m a qualified electrician and we have a team of electricians working for us,” Tony tells me. “We are NIC registered and carry out a high professional standard of work. “Both with the stores and the electrical side, our aim is to provide a helpful, valued, professional service and please customers so that they will come back time and time again.”

Find your inner rhythm For those who’d like to meditate, but find the necessary stillness too uncomfortable, Five Rhythms could be the way ahead. Kate Edser reports.

H BERNADETTE RYDER Bernadette teaches Five Rhythms twice a week at Hamilton House in Stokes Croft, BS1 3QY (0117 924 9599) on Tuesdays (7.45-9.45pm) and Fridays 8-10.30pm. Each class costs £10/£8. By day, Bernadette is director of the Clifton Relaxation Centre. Always a dancer, she stumbled upon Five Rhythms ‘by accident’ and ‘fell in love’. The practice was created in the 1970s by the late American dancer, Gabrielle Roth, with whom Bernadette (and all such teachers) trained.

10 TRY IT ● ● ● ● ●

umans have danced since the dawn of our time on Earth: to appease the Gods, for a fruitful harvest and in celebration, but also for no particular reason; just for the sheer joy of movement. Whether bopping around at home, at a family wedding, or performing on stage, moving to music has that feel-good factor. For some people, the concept of wellbeing through movement has deepened into something more formal: yoga and tai chi are two examples, but Five Rhythms is a lesserknown practice. In Bristol, this kind of “movement meditation” has been taught by Bernadette Ryder for 17 years, during which time her enthusiasm has never waned. Indeed, as she begins to explain what it is, her voice and gestures become ever more lyrical and animated, before slowing and quietening again towards the end of our talk. Later, I realise this is a total reflection of everything she is trying to impart. In a nutshell, the practice is based on the idea that energy is wave-like, building and ebbing through five rhythms: flow, staccato, chaos, lyrical and stillness. There is music – any music – to accompany each rhythm, but the movement is entirely freestyle, which Bernadette thinks suits our Western way of life better than any “still” meditation. She explains: “Most of the meditation practices we have come from ancient cultures – people who had physical lifestyles, but were very low paced. We are the opposite: we have a really high-paced lifestyle that is extremely head focussed. Five Rhythms is taking that meditation practice into a freestyle dance. “The biggest thing people are up against when they first come is their own inhibitions. Part of my job is to take them through that. In the space of 30 minutes they are past performance anxiety and just in the following of their dance. “After they’ve been warming up for a little while, I’ll come in and start deepening the warm-up and I’ll take them through a whole process of bringing in their focus and attention and simultaneously warming up every part of their body, so it’s loose and free and moving and easy in the group. “We work with getting into the body, con-

necting with the body, freeing it and spotting patterns of movement. Once people are really connected we’ll go into the wave. It happens naturally anyway, but I’ll guide it using different music for different rhythms. “It starts flowing, with low energy, then the energy builds, the rhythm comes in and the energy keeps building, the beat gets faster and then the rhythm breaks because it’s too fast and it goes into chaos, which is really high energy and very free. “The peak of the energy is in that area and at some point there’s a real release. I like to think of it as an energy bath; it’s like clearing out the debris that accumulates in your system from not saying what you think and not expressing how you feel. “Then it’s suddenly light and you’re going down hill in the lyrical phase. It tends to become quite playful and fun. Finally, it drops back down into stillness, but that’s moving, because nothing is still in the body. Stillness is a quality.” Inevitably, people interact with each other during the classes, forming and breaking movement relationships. Bernadette continues: “The point is to keep noticing your response. So you go into partnership with one person and immediately it’s easy and there’s a groove, but someone else is awkward and clumsy and you don’t want to be dancing with them, or you’re shy. “There are people who love dancing on their own and in their own space and they are uncomfortable immediately there is anyone else, and there are other people who are a bit bored on their own and as soon as they are with a partner they come to life. “There’s never a right or wrong; it’s a noticing and the call in the practice is to find the movement that is really reflecting how you feel. “The rhythms that are natural to us and come easily are reflecting our energy patterns in the body and what’s comfortable in life. The bits that feel awkward and weird are reflecting what’s uncomfortable. “As it starts to feel more comfortable in the dance, that possibility becomes more available to you in the rest of your life. It becomes more flowing and you can start being more flowing in your life. There is a mirroring going on – what happens on the dance floor is a mirror of your life.”

It’s worth paying to stay safe online THE NEW INSTAGRAM ■ Tunepics is a new app that allows you to give your photos a soundtrack. Users upload an image, add a filter, then search and choose from one of 35 million preview clips on iTunes. There’s also the option to spin a rainbow-coloured wheel and select one of 16 emotions to describe your “moment” – from laughing, or happy, to heartbroken, or crying. Clearly looking to emulate Instagram’s success, the emotive iPhone and iPad app (available to download free from the App Store) has already attracted the likes of Will.i.am and Jamie Oliver, as well as fashion brands Asos and Chloe.

IF YOU DON’T ASK... Following the recent eBay hack, it might be time to boost your online security with the help of a password manager

irst it was the Heartbleed bug. Now it’s eBay. Two major internet security threats in as many months mean the case for using a password manager is stronger than ever. Last week, eBay bosses revealed that a database of customers’ names, encrypted passwords, email addresses, home addresses, phone numbers and dates of birth had been accessed by hackers. Crucially, financial information wasn’t hacked (it’s stored elsewhere) but the online auction site has still emailed its 150 million users recommending they change their passwords to be on the safe side. Do beware: in the wake of the alert, it’s possible scammers will pose as eBay, creating phishing emails to try and lure users to reveal their details. Genuine emails from eBay will not contain a link, only advice to log in via ebay.co.uk to make the change. The Heartbleed bug, described as “catastrophic” by experts, was a flaw in one of the most widely used encryption tools on the internet, which meant usernames and passwords could be hacked from affected sites. Again, users were advised to change their passwords – but only once the breech was patched, otherwise they risked revealing both new and old passwords to hackers. All in all, this means

a lot of password changes, and a lot of codes to remember (since experts recommend using a different tough-to-crack password on every site log in). And perhaps as a result of this wealth of information to remember, a recent survey by anti-virus firm Avast found that, while 90 per cent of those surveyed intended to change their password after April’s Heartbleed bug scare, only 40 per cent actually did. There is help at hand for those flummoxed by multiple password changes, though. LastPass (lastpass.com) is considered the league champion of password managers, systems that create strong passwords and store them all in one place. Download the browser-based service and it will save your password every time you log into a site, then autofill it whenever you return to the site. When joining a new website, or updating your details on an existing one, the LastPass generator will create a tough-as-nails password. LastPass recently underwent a redesign, but it remains free to use. A premium version is available for $12 (about £7) a year, allowing access to mobile apps (on a variety of platforms) and multi-factor authentication, a super-tough encryption technique. A small price to pay for peace of mind.

■ Another day, another inquisitive Facebook tool. Now, an “Ask” button appears next to any undisclosed information in a person’s About section, like education, work or home town. When you click on the button, a box pops up asking you to tell your friend why you want to request their vital info. It even includes relationship status, so you can enquire as to whether someone is single, which is either hideously nosey, or adorably flirty, depending on how you look at it.

GOODBYE TO GAMING GUILT ■ Gaming isn’t just for spotty teenage boys anymore. According to Deloitte’s eighth annual survey of media consumers (www.deloitte.co.uk/mediaconsumer2), the average casual gamer is now a 25 to 34-year-old female. A casual gamer is described as someone playing on a tablet, smartphone or social network rather than a games console – the latter are still mostly 16 to 24-year-old males. Plus, half of respondents said they believe games can be used as an educational tool – which is a good excuse next time someone catches you playing Candy Crush Saga on the way to work.

NATIONAL GARDEN SCHEME FESTIVAL WEEKEND

PICK OF THE WEEK: Pro-Nationals Motocross Weston-super-Mare, June 7 & 8

or the second year running, the Pro-Nationals Motocross Festival will take over the beach at Weston-superMare this weekend. Last year, more than 10,000 fans of motorbike action headed to the resort and this year’s event is set to be even bigger. It’s a family-friendly day so, as well as watching some of the best riders in the world hurtling over the sand or jumping high into the air as they compete, there’s plenty for the kids to see and do. The Pro-Motocross event is the headline act, with 40 of the UK and Europe’s fastest racers going head-to-head on a new circuit built on Weston’s beach, but that’s just one part of the programme. Riders as young as seven will be showing what the next generation have in store by racing in front of the watching thousands, and

the cameras will be snapping away when the stunts get under way in the Freestyle Motocross area, where you can watch a 100kg bike fly 60ft in the air – sometimes upside down. It won’t be all about wheels churning through sand, as there will be regular street bike displays over the two days of the show, with some of the world’s best street bike stars performing some jaw-dropping skills, while riding incredibly powerful bikes. Fireworks will bring a special Saturday night show – including some monster truck action – to a close, and a special kidzone, where children as young as five can try motocross, will also run over the entire weekend. ■ For tickets and more information, see www.pro nationalsfestival.com. The main racing area and the different zones will be located on the section of beach south of the Tropicana site.

■ The National Garden Scheme’s Festival Weekend, on June 7 and 8, will see hundreds of gardens opened to the public across the country, some for the first time. Some gardens will also have special activities taking place, such as art and sculpture collections on display, or live music. Nearly all offer delicious teas and cakes. Some have evening openings too, serving wine. In the Bristol area, gardens open this weekend include: Christmas Cottage, Ivydene, Orchard Croft and The Pound in Oldbury-on-Severn; 3 Palmer’s Way in Hutton, Weston-super-Mare; 18 Woodgrove Road in Henbury, Bristol; Fernbank, Marty’s Garden, Middlecombe Nursery, 29 Stonewell Lane and Yeo Meads in Congresbury; Hanham Court; and Pretoria Road Allotments at Patchway.

■ Extending the route: From Flax Bourton you can take a short on-road detour to Wraxhall on the B3130 to visit the beautiful Tyntesfield House, a wonderfully gothic National Trust property, with beautiful surrounding gardens and parkland.

■ The Dovecote, Ashton Road – This rustic country pub offers a warm welcome and has a great range of hearty pub food and cask ales.

WHY I LIKE THIS ROUTE JON USHER (REGIONAL MANAGER) ■ “This route is one of my favourite ways to spend a leisurely Sunday afternoon. I love exploring Ashton Court and, on a sunny day, I'll pack a picnic and find a quiet spot to relax and watch the world go by. When the weather’s a bit more temperamental, I'll duck into one of the pubs along the way for some great pub grub."

his largely trafficfree route officially opened in May 2013. Created by Sustrans and Bristol City and North Somerset councils using a £50m Big Lottery Fund award, it travels through Ashton Court, Long Ashton and Flax Bourton, before continuing on to Nailsea. The route is called The Festival Way because it provides easy access to Ashton Court, where a number of festivals are held each year, including the Balloon Fiesta, Europe’s largest annual hot air balloon event. The Fiesta attracts 500,000 visitors during the show’s four days – and is free to attend. It’s being held this year from Thursday to Sunday, August 7-10. Starting in Bristol, you follow Route 33,

which takes you on a traffic-free path from the beautiful Queen Square, with its stunning Georgian buildings, out of the city via the “Chocolate Path” alongside the River Avon New Cut. Crossing the river at the Create Centre, you join Kennel Lodge Road as you enter Ashton Court, where there is a steep, short hill up to the mansion house. With 850 acres of woodland and grassland, mountain bike trails and two enclosed deer parks, Ashton Court is the perfect stopping off point for a picnic. The route drops down the hill through the car park before leaving Ashton Court on Ashton Road by the Dove Cote pub (take care while crossing this road) and then joins a traffic-free path that runs through farmland, parallel with the busy A370. Travelling through

the pretty village of Long Ashton, there are some short on-road sections through quiet housing estates before another traffic-free section alongside Weston Road which leads into the village of Flax Bourton. Take care when crossing the road at the mini roundabout. The route soon joins another long section of traffic-free path alongside the railway line until you again join Blackwell Bow and then Lodge Lane leading into Nailsea. There’s a short ride along the Golden Valley Bridleway that takes you all the way into Millennium Park in Nailsea. ■ Sustrans has produced a free, downloadable map of the route at www.sustrans.org.uk/ncn/map/ route/festival-way

Dinner with the family Strain the waistline not the wallet

lthough The Townhouse has only been open for three years, Nick Armitage has been running restaurants on this part of Whiteladies Road for the best part of a decade. When he first opened The Picture House next to the old cinema opposite, this site was still the Quartier Vert restaurant and, in many ways, he has recaptured the buzz and spirit of its much-loved predecessor. At lunchtime, the main menu at The Townhouse is supplemented by an excellent value set menu of two courses for £8.90 and three courses for £10. Similarly, the a la carte dinner menu vies for attention alongside a set menu offering three courses for £18, or two courses for £15. All of the above makes for some tricky choices, but ultimately gives diners plenty of options. It certainly helps to reduce the final bill for large groups, or families with ravenous teenagers. The restaurant itself is relaxed and homely, with framed black and white family photos, tasselled standard lamps, ticking grandfather clocks, vintage Guinness and Gordon’s Gin posters and shelves lined with old Charles Dickens’ books. The food here is essentially modern European and there is plenty of focus on seasonality and South West produce. We ordered from both the set menu and the a la carte, although a number of dishes pop up on both.

19 EAT IT ● ● ● ● ●

A starter of Lyme Bay scallops with pea purée, smoked bacon, Stornaway black pudding and truffle oil may have carried a £4.50 supplement on the set menu, but it would have been £9.50 if ordered off the a la carte. Either way, it was a winning dish, the plump and juicy scallops having a sweetness to them that worked with the silky pea purée, the crisp and smoky bacon and the rich and crumbly black pudding, although the truffle oil was a little shy in coming forward. An a la carte starter of seafood linguini (£8.90) was generous in the extreme – a mountainous dish of pasta mixed with plenty of king prawns, crab and mussels in a white wine, tomato and parsley sauce, with enough red chilli to tickle the tongue and provide another excuse to reach for a glass of chilled white wine. A set menu’s 28-day aged hanger steak was faultlessly cooked medium-rare and served with crisp, greaseless skinny fries, rocket salad and a tarragon-flecked béarnaise sauce. Rose veal rump and braised cheek (£14.50) was excellent value considering the quality and provenance of the meat – the dark and sticky slow-cooked cheek served in a separate ramekin alongside the slices of pink and tender rump. It was served with spring greens and a seriously rich Cheddar-flavoured polenta. A tart and intensely fruity raspberry sorbet (£4.90) was a perfectly refreshing full stop to a highly enjoyable meal.

Dinner at a local legend continues to impress

t’s just over a year since a brand new team took over Bell’s Diner and in that time it has picked up two glowing reviews from respected national restaurant critics who are rarely tempted out of London. More importantly, perhaps, it continues to attract new customers from across the city, while retaining the same neighbourhood bistro allure it had when it first opened under its original team in 1976. Relaxed, informal and staffed by people who clearly have a passion for the food and wine being served, it’s everything a local restaurant should be. Fifty years ago, this was a greengrocer and provisions store and the original wooden dresser in the front room (complete with rusty old tins next to the bottles of wine) still has an air of the Open All Hours corner shop about it. On the table behind me, a vintage Bush record player was cranking out tunes from Bobby Goldsboro’s Hello Summertime album, which seemed slightly ironic on such a grey and drizzly May afternoon. Since Sam Sohn-Rethel took over the kitchen here, he has tweaked the lunch menu and, although the initial “three dishes for £10” deal has gone, a tenner will still easily buy you three of the “small plate” options. There were 15 dishes on the lunch menu – priced between £2.50 and £18 – and although the menu doesn’t flag them up as starters or

main courses, the pricing structure gives a good indicator and a few of the dishes are served in two different sizes. Since it reopened last May, the wines have been given a gentle makeover, too, and it’s a genuinely interesting list, with bottles from exciting new producers from parts of Europe rarely featured in other restaurants. The wines I sampled from Greece and Crete were exceptional and I’m looking forward to trying the bottles from Armenia, Tenerife and Bulgaria on future visits. A trip to Bell’s Diner wouldn’t be complete without a plate of salt cod fritters with aioli (£4.50) – three golden, crisp-exterior globes of creamy, salty salt cod with a thick and really garlicky mayonnaise for dipping. These were followed by a delicate, early summer salad dish of crab, Cornish new potatoes and sweet herb mayonnaise (£8), the sweet freshness of the crab working well with the firm, creamy potatoes and mayonnaise flecked with mint, basil and dill. A third course of incredibly fresh, thick-flaked cod loin (£10) arrived with a cluster of juicy clams and plump prawns, a few sweet roasted tomatoes and a tangle of samphire and garlic scapes. To finish, a surprisingly light and airy strawberry and goat’s curd cheesecake (£6.50) with a buttery biscuit base and a vibrant red top of strawberry purée jelly.

Lunch: New opening Drop in for a summer brunch

A BREW COFFEE COMPANY 45 Whiteladies Road, Bristol, BS8 2LS. No phone. Twitter @brewcc

VERDICT After years working for finely tuned operations such as Boston Tea Party, Matt Atkins and Joe Urch have clearly learnt well when it comes to good coffee, friendly service and enjoyable, fairly priced food. All of which makes Brew a welcome new addition to Bristol’s new wave of cool independent coffee houses.

fter several years working in the trade as a manager for the likes of Boston Tea Party, it was only natural that Matt Atkins wanted to become his own boss. He took time out and travelled Australia, where he immersed himself in the country’s vibrant coffee house scene and returned to the UK fired up to open a shop of his own. Brew Coffee Company has opened in the premises previously occupied by the Retreat Café, a stone’s throw from the BBC on Whiteladies Road. A site that benefits from a decked terrace tailor-made for sunny summer brunches, Atkins has been joined by his friend Joe Urch, an experienced barista who also worked for Boston Tea Party. With its white walls, black floor, stripped pine farmhouse tables and chairs painted mustard yellow and grey, it’s a simple, functional space that was been created with upcycled and recycled materials, including a counter made with black slate from old snooker tables. An Italian-made La Marzocco – the Lamborghini of coffee machines – takes pride of place on the counter, hissing and spluttering as it dispenses espressos made using a special Brew house blend of Ethiopian and Brazilian beans roasted by Clifton Coffee.

listed on the menu, including Buxtons butchers, Hobbs House Bakery and The Bristol Cheesemonger. Everything is made to order in the kitchen downstairs and breakfast choices include jars of maple-toasted granola with yoghurt and compote; rye bagels filled with goats curd and honey; or the smoked bacon, egg and chilli jam on sourdough (£4.65) that I ordered. The three slices of toasted, chewy sourdough had been slathered with butter and layered with thick slices of good quality bacon, two perfectly runny poached eggs and a separate jar of moreish chilli jam that was as sweet as it was fiery. I washed it down with a well-made flat white (£2.50) served in a glass tumbler as my daughter enjoyed her croissant (£1.50) and “delicious” banana, honey, milk and ice smoothie (£2.50). We also shared a slice of chocolate and honeycomb tiffin (£2.20) that wasn’t overly sweet and had a nice crunch and chew to it. When breakfast is finished, the lunch menu kicks in, with salad boxes, quiches and sandwiches also available to take away. The selection changes all the time but choices include West Country Cheddar, ale chutney, tomato and salad sandwiches; roasted pepper and goats cheese quiche; and cauliflower, hazelnut and pomegranate salad.

THE ASHVILLE SOUTHVILLE

ntillastweek,I hadn’t setfootinthis tucked-away Southville pub for almost 20 years and it has undergone such a dramatic transformation that I barely recognised the place. Back then it was called the Try Again and it was one of the pubs of choice for Bristol City fans to meet in before a home game at Ashton Gate. The Try Again was very much a pub of its time, a proper old-school boozer. In May, the pub reopened under new ownership and it has been transformed into a smart, stylish gastropub aimed more at families. The new owner runs a B&B nearby and he has also added bedrooms above the pub, although whether any supporters of visiting teams to Ashton Gate decide to stay there is another matter. With its New England-style white furniture and flowers on the table, the pub is geared towards diners but there are stools at the marbletopped bar for locals popping in for a pint. Gone are the cheap lagers and this Fostersfree zone now stocks premium brews such as Grolsch (£3.90 a pint) and Pilsner Urquell (£4.40apint),althoughthereisalsothecheaper option of the £3.50 Carling. Guest ales are £3.50 and include Bath Ales

Gem, Doom Bar and Wickwar Bankers Draft. Cider drinkers have plenty of choice with Thatchers Gold, Stowford Press, Addlestones Cloudy, Thatchers Heritage and Rosie’s Pig on draught. There is also the option of ordering third-pints of three different ciders or beers for £3.60, which is a nice touch for those interested in tasting different tipples. Food is being taken seriously here and the meals I saw being carried from the kitchen looked well worth a return visit. As well as traditional ham, egg and chips (£7.95), fish pie (£9.95) and cod and chips (£7.95), there was an 8oz rib-eye steak and chips (£14.95) and roast salmon, wilted spinach and sautéed new potatoes (£8.95). Previously two rooms, the pub has been opened up completely and it’s much lighter than before, with duck egg-blue tongue and groove panels on the wall. Not that all traces of its past have been eradicated – the lower half of the walls are still Robin red, which should keep all the old City fans, happy even if the rest of the pub has changed beyond recognition. ■ 15 Leigh Street, Southville, BS3 1SN.

WINE OF THE WEEK FOSSIL 2012 ■ I was immediately drawn to the name of Fossil 2012, and to its price of £6.25 from Asda. But there is a lot more to this Portuguese phenomenon than that. It’s made by a young man called Pedro Marques who gets his grapes (native species Arinto, Gouveio and Fernão Pires) from Atlantic-facing vineyards around Lisbon. The land is as rich in fossils as our

own Jurassic Coast, thus the name. And in its way, this is a historic wine, reminding me nostalgically of the kind of sappy, oxidized whites to be found in Portugal many years ago – and long since extinct. But this is a distinctly 21st-century creation that’s madly underpriced. It’s the kind of wine you can drink with anything, and with a lot of pleasure.

Melt-in-the-mouth meals from the best Chinese in the world

t the Hunan restaurant, there are no menus. You simply say what you don’t eat and how spicy you like your food and chef/owner Mr Peng does the rest, serving up small portions and keeping them coming until you say “stop”. Mr Peng’s wonderful food and distinctive style attracts loyal, repeat customers from all over the world and generates superlative reviews, including from hard-to-please critic Giles Coren, who said: “I have long accepted that Hunan may be the best Chinese restaurant in the world.” Founded in 1982, little has changed at this legendary London restaurant over the years, which is laid out according to feng shui, with orders still sent down to the kitchen via a chute and food returned via a dumb waiter. Mr Peng is a firm believer in simplicity and traditional Chinese values. Hunan is a landmark Chinese cookbook that captures the essence of a unique menu from a unique character. Among the 70 must-have recipes are Mr Peng’s “absurdly delicious” prawn dumplings, lettuce wraps filled with diced chicken “which you just pop into your mouth and scrunch” and melt-in-the-mouth double-cooked pork. These are dishes perfected over years filled with passion and experience, from one of the most charismatic chefs working today. And, with a number of Chinese supermarkets in Bristol selling specialist ingredients, these simple recipes are also easy to recreate at home.

MISO CHICKEN MAKES 6 PORTIONS ■ Make the sauce first by mixing the miso paste, Shaoxing wine, chicken stock, soy sauce, cornflour, sugar and ground white pepper together in a bowl. Adjust for taste, adding salt and sugar as necessary, then add the ginger and spring onions and set aside. Cut the chicken breast diagonally to get wide thin slices – about six slices from one chicken breast. Tenderise it by lightly piercing with a knife. Season with a little salt before dusting with the cornflour. Add some oil to the wok and heat until just beginning to smoke. Coat the chicken with the beaten egg and add straight to the hot wok. When the

chicken is just beginning to brown, flip it over and cook the other side. When the chicken is brown on both sides, remove from the wok and set aside. In the same wok, add the mixed sauce and cook through. Add the remaining chicken stock and slaked cornflour and warm through. Return the chicken to the wok to cook with the sauce briefly. Add the vinegar and sesame oil just before serving. Plate up either in individual portions or as one large plate. Arrange the Chinese cabbage on the plate or plates, place the chicken on top and drizzle with the sauce. Garnish with chopped chillies before serving.

It’s all a matter of good taste While Croatia’s Adriatic coast is well known to us Brits, Kate Edser discovers there is plenty to do, and see – and taste – in the eastern Slavonia and Baranja regions

wo huge wooden doors form a semicircle in front of me. An old wrought iron key the length of man’s hand is produced and turns easily in the lock. There’s an air of apprehension as we step inside the tunnel, but though it’s dark and musty, the bricks and flagstones blackened by centuries of moss and dirt, there’s a magical quality. Some might argue there’s certainly magic produced here. This is Iloki Podrium, one of Croatia’s oldest wineries, where the still-used cellars were dug straight into the hillside above the Danube in the 17th century, each lined on either side with oak barrels as far as the eye can see. Not far away is another winery, Vina Belje, where a similar network of cellars has all been cleaned – a painstaking processes completed by hand in order to preserve the integrity of the ancient bricks which, though rough and pitted, are now as red as the day they were laid. Each of these wineries now concentrates production in new, high-tech facilities, but the old cellars remain to house wine aged in oak, and to keep safe the valuable vintage stuff. Increasingly, the cellars are also busy with tourists, who combine a tour and tasting with traditional food at the in-house restaurants. For Brits, such a tour (with English-speaking guides) is a must, since so little Croatian wine makes its way to the UK and so much of it is delicious. I’m so impressed (and so worried I won’t find any back home) that I risk an overweight suitcase to stash two bottles. Many wineries, these two included, are only now recovering from the war and occupation of 1991-99, which ravaged these areas of the former Yugoslavia. It’s impossible to ignore the legacy of war during our time in the east of this country.

beautifully restored museum at Ilok was forced to leave his home for eight years. As photographs in the museum show, he and his family joined the long column of townsfolk who left with just the possessions they could carry – or face death. But nowhere is the conflict brought more vividly to our consciousness than in the Danube port of Vukovar, which was completely destroyed during a three-month siege in 1991. We stand transfixed by a short but poignant film showing the city in ruins, its people bereft and traumatised. Now restored to its former Baroque glory, Vukovar is a bright place that’s beginning to prosper again. After dinner here in a delightful riverside restaurant, Dunavska Golubica (preceded by the inevitable glass of local schnapps), we return to our base in Osijek. Never heard of it? Not surprising, since almost all Brits holidaying in Croatia head to the Adriatic coast and more famous places like Split and Dubrovnik. By contrast, Osijek is about as far from the coast as it’s possible to be in Croatia, but what the area lacks in seaside appeal it makes up for

in history, architecture, sightseeing options and great hospitality. We stay at the four-star Hotel Waldinger, an Art Nouveau building a two-minute walk from the River Drava, a tall cathedral and the main square that’s lined with shops and bars. I’ve drawn the long straw and occupy a suite, complete with a spa bath, separate shower room and a sitting area. Behind the hotel is a top-notch restaurant and next door is a bar, with pleasantly old-fashioned appeal, where waiters in crisp white shirts and aprons take our order, and a round of drinks for six costs less than a tenner. As we notice in cafes and restaurants wherever we go, there are also cabinets showing an array of artful cakes. Indeed, cake is big in Croatia, in more ways than one; there’s no such thing as a small slice. In fact, there is no such thing as a small portion. I order stuffed chicken for dinner one evening and a breaded, fried breast arrives wrapped around a pork fillet and a slab of cheese. To placate my health-conscious self, there’s mixed leaves and shredded vegetables. So there’s nothing delicate about the food

here, but it is plentiful and tasty, with traditional dishes of meat or fish stew heavily spiced with paprika and served with pasta. Osijek, Croatia’s fourth largest city, has a population of 120,000 people – and several thousand pine martens. These are the descendents of those brought in during the 18th century to destroy plague-carrying rats. There are better places to see the local wildlife, however, like Kopacki Rit nature park – a wetland with marsh turtles, deer, beavers, waterbirds and white-tailed eagles. We take a relaxing boat ride and spot several of these massive and impressive birds. Equally impressive are the stallions at the state-owned Lippizzaner stud in Dakovo. Open to the public and with tours available in English, visitors can get really close to, but not touch, these lovely horses, whose relaxed demeanour and obvious curiosity are indicative of the high standard of care here. What I’ve outlined here is just a quick snapshot of what’s available to see and do in the Slavonia and Baranja regions. To make the most of it, my advice is to book a tour guide.

GIG OF THE WEEK: Grillstock BBQ Festival, headlined by Fun Lovin Criminals, Bristol Harbourside

28 HEAR IT ● ● ● ● ●

from Friday, June 6, 2014

his weekend, Bristol Harbourside plays host to Britain’s biggest US-style

BBQ and music festival. It’s the fifth year for Grillstock, which runs at the Lloyds Amphitheatre on Saturday and Sunday, and Bristol-based organiser Jon Finch says that this year’s event is bigger and better in every way. With its slogan of “meat, music, mayhem”, Grillstock is about the music as much as the food and both aspects of the festival have been enhanced and improved for this weekend’s event. Jon says: “We’ve put a good deal more focus on the entertainment this year and our purpose-built covered stage offers a fantastic music line-up right through the weekend. “Music and barbecues go together hand in hand and our main stage hosts an impressive line-up of rockabilly, Cajun, blues, country and ‘twisted rock Americana’, adding to the authenticity of the Deep South BBQ scene.” The line-up on this year’s main stage is the strongest yet, with Saturday night headlined by Fun Lovin’ Criminals, the New York trio who had huge worldwide hits in the 1990s with songs like Scooby Snacks, Smoke ’Em, Love Unlimited and Korean Bodega. The band’s

Festival boasts a meaty line-up frontman Huey Morgan has recently won a huge new following with his radio shows on BBC6 Music. Also appearing on the main stage on Saturday are Danny and the Champions of the World, a band that distils the Grillstock flavours of blues, soul, country and rock ’n’ roll. London-based nine-piece The Dirty Gentlemen bring their southern-fried swamp pop and New Orleans R&B to the main stage on Saturday afternoon, with reggae star Levi Roots and his 13-piece band playing exclusive tracks from his new album Phenomenon. On Sunday, hillbilly rockers Hayseed Dixie make a welcome Grillstock return. Since their debut album, A Hillbilly Tribute to AC/DC, the East Tennessee band have built up a huge reputation for their sensational live shows, playing thousands of gigs across every continent except Antarctica. They will be joined on the main stage by London’s The Urban Voodoo Machine, with their bourbon-soaked gypsy blues rock, The Future Shape of Sound and Bristol country

cowpunks The Montgomerys. “Grillstock would not be complete without music,” says Finch. “Our slogan is ‘meat, music, mayhem’ after all. Meat and mayhem just doesn’t have the same ring to it. “We try to get great Americana bands that everyone can’t help but tap their feet to. This year we have really gone wild on the music side and we have a great line-up of bands across the weekend. “Big fat bouncy beats, hip hop attitude and bluesy underpinnings are what creates the unmistakable sound of the Fun Lovin’ Criminals, who are going to be a highlight this year. We’ve been huge fans since the 1990s when their massive hit Scooby Snacks was played everywhere you went. “We were lucky enough to hang out and drink beer for a few hours backstage with frontman Huey Morgan last year before he did a late-night DJ set for our Manchester festival. We held on to his number, gave him a call and asked if he’d bring the crew to headline Bristol this year. It’s going to be epic. “Three years ago we booked Hayseed Dixie to play on the Sunday afternoon. At the time it was the biggest band we’d ever brought to Grillstock and crowds flocked from miles to watch them in action. “We headed backstage and watched thousands of fans jumping around to their hillbilly madness, it was awesome. We’ve booked them again for Bristol this year – they are simply one of the best bands you’ll see live all year.” As well as the music, the BBQs and food stalls, there will be entertainment for the whole family, from the children’s treasure hunt and craft workshops to the street performers and cooking demonstrations. On the food side of things, the King of the Grill barbecue cooking competition is back, with 27 teams competing in seven rounds throughout the weekend. Teams from across the world will smoke pork, lamb, beef and chicken, the Grand Champion winning £1,000 in cash and automatically qualifying to compete against the best of the best at the American Royal World Series of BBQ Invitational contest in Kansas City later this year. Bristol-based teams taking part include Becky’s BBQ Shack, Flamin’ Amateurs, Meatpocalypse and Social Smokers. And for those with stronger constitutions, there’s always the hot wing eating competition, the hot dog eating competition and the chilli eating competition, featuring some of the hottest chillies in the world. Jon says: “Magic, meat, fire, heat and awesome music – it’s the perfect recipe for a great festival and weekend of entertainment. “I can’t think of anything better than kicking back to some fantastic music, chewing on a hickory smoked rack of ribs and washing it all down with a great local cider and craft American beers.” ■ Saturday June 7 and Sunday June 8.

LITTLE BARRIE LOUISIANA

LET’S ROCK BRISTOL! – THE ULTIMATE 80S FESTIVAL ASHTON COURT ESTATE

fter a sell-out success in its first year, Let’s Rock Bristol! returns to Ashton Court this weekend with a line-up of artists guaranteed to recapture the sounds of the 1980s. The biggest festival of its type, Let’s Rock sees a huge line-up of chart-topping artists from the decade including Level 42, pictured, Bananarama, Rick Astley, Tony Hadley, ABC, Belinda Carlisle, Go West, Heaven 17, Midge Ure, China Crisis, Alexander O’Neal, Imagination, The Blow Monkeys, The Christians, Boney M, Toyah, Dr & The Medics, T’Pau, Sonia and Johnny Hates Jazz.

New for 2014 is the Changeover Party, which includes an array of entertainment during band changeovers, including a number of surprise guests from entertainers and TV stars from the Eighties. The festival is geared towards a family atmosphere and there will be plenty of attractions to keep kids amused, such as the free Bigtopmania circus, a funfair including water rides and soft play areas, as well as children’s entertainers. ■ Friday, June 6 to Sunday, June 8. See listings for details.

ottingham trio Little Barrie have been growing up in the shadows for 15 years now but it is a testament to the three players involved – guitarist and vocalist Barrie Cadogan, bassist Lewis Wharton and drummer Virgil Howe – that as a band they are about to release their strongest album to date. Aptly named Shadow, the new album – recorded at Edwyn Collins’ West Heath Studios – comes three years after the release of the critically acclaimed King Of The Waves and it marks a shift in sound for the band, who have supported the likes of The Stone Roses, Kasabian and Primal Scream. Cadogan says: “The band’s sound has changed, there was more of a soul influence on the first album, then there was rockabilly and the surf thing, and now it’s a bit more garagey. “But we’ve played together so much more, and because of that we’ve been able to do a lot more. “It’s not just the gigs, but recording and rehearsing together. There’s much more of a performance element in the band now.” ■ Sunday, June 8. See listings for details.

JOHN FULLBRIGHT ST BONAVENTURE’S

orn in Woody Guthrie’s hometown of Okemah, Oklahoma, John Fullbright started playing piano at the age of five and was playing guitar at the legendary Blue Door club as a teenager, supporting the likes of Joe Ely and Jimmy Webb. The critics have been unanimous in their praise for Fullbright’s stunning debut album, From The Ground Up, a lyrically diverse,

genre-spanning collection of memorable songs that richly deserves its Grammy nomination for the coveted Americana award. July 21 sees the release of Fullbright’s second album, Songs, which showcases his strongest songwriting to date – the arrangements are stripped down to their cores and free of ornamentation. ■ Friday, June 6.

THE DELINES ST BONAVENTURE’S

hen Richmond Fontaine lead singer Willy Vlautin heard Amy Boone’s beguiling, heartbreaking voice, he did the only thing that he could – he wrote an entire album for The Damnations vocalist, and rounded up ace musicians such as Sean Oldham (Richmond Fontaine), Jenny Conlee (The Decemberists) and Tucker Jackson to play on it. The band are called The Delines and the record, Colfax, is a stunning and timeless collection of songs, combining the intimacy of a midnight confessional with the skid-row

heart of Tom Waits, the street-tough weariness of early Rickie Lee Jones, and the cool, laid-back sound of Mazzy Star. As an award-winning novelist and the leader of one of America’s foremost alt.country bands, Vlautin is used to critical acclaim but The Delines take things to a new level and this promises to be an unmissable show. Support comes from Irish duo The Lost Brothers, whose last album, The Passing Of The Night, was produced in Nashville by The Raconteurs’ Brendan Benson. ■ June 12. See listings for details.

Clubbing FLYING LOTUS AND THUNDERCAT COLSTON HALL

teve Ellison once described himself as hip-hop’s “weird stepchild”. Better known as Flying Lotus – or FlyLo to his admirers – he emerged from the experimental beats scene that grew up around LA club night Low End Theory. Early releases (including 2007 breakthrough album Los Angeles) drew heavily on West Coast hip-hop, from J-Dilla to Dr Dre, even as Ellison’s unstable rhythms and woozy synths stretched the genre to breaking point. 2010’s Cosmogramma was where things got really interesting. A sprawling psychedelic masterpiece, the double album blended hip-hop, techno, soul and bass music with avant-garde

ideas presumably inherited from his much-loved “Auntie” (jazz pianist and harpist Alice Coltrane). If Cosmogramma remains Ellison’s most ambitious work to date, 2012’s dream-like When the Quiet Comes is a great achievement as well, featuring memorable turns from big name stars like Erykah Badu and Radiohead’s Thom Yorke. For this show he’ll be joined by prodigious bass player, songwriter and vocalist Thundercat, who appeared on both Cosmogramma and When the Quiet Comes. ■ Friday, June 6. See listings for details.

Classical CLIFTON FESTIVAL VARIOUS LOCATIONS

t might have evolved last year out of celebrations for Clifton Cathedral’s 40th birthday, but with more than 7,000 people attending the first Clifton International Festival of Music, a sequel was a no-brainer. And, from Symphoniae Sacrae at All Saints’ Church to Bristol Cathedral’s Lay Clerks in The Lansdown pub, it’s spreading its wings. Clifton Cathedral remains the focus, however, and artistic director Tom Williams rings the changes with anything from the ravishing 16th-

Laugh-out-loud gags from the dunderhead double-act

ith a knowing wink and a profusion of expletives, 22 Jump Street abides by the conventions of a sequel and condemns its dim-witted yet loveable protagonists to relive the plot of the original on a vastly inflated budget. That’s no bad thing. Tongue-in-cheek, self-referential playfulness abounds in Phil Lord and Christopher Miller’s uproarious action-packed comedy, which adheres unabashedly to a winning formula and gleefully colludes with us for various in-jokes and sight gags. Thus when Deputy Chief Hardy (Nick Offerman) tells officers Schmidt (Jonah Hill) and Jenko (Channing Tatum) they must return to undercover duties, the latter cutely asks, “What if we went to the Secret Service and had to protect the White House?” Tatum stops short of holding up a DVD copy of his 2013 blockbuster White House Down and flashing an impish grin to camera. Wonderful on-screen chemistry between the leads powers the picture through the occasional lull and the scriptwriters have a ball increasing the homoerotic undercurrents of the central bro-mance into an unstoppable flood. 22 Jump Street opens with Schmidt and Jenko investigating criminal mastermind The Ghost (Peter Stormare) and continuing to be a liability to the public and each other.

After a sting to capture The Ghost goes bad, Captain Dickson (Ice Cube) recruits the pair for another hare-brained undercover operation. This time, they must pose as college students and unmask the suppliers of a drug called W.H.Y.P.H.Y. (Work Hard? Yes! Play Hard? Yes!). The narcotic has claimed the life of one girl on campus and Dickson wants to prevent W.H.Y.P.H.Y. spreading across the country. So Schmidt and Jenko adopt their unlikely cover identities and infiltrate different student cliques. Buff and athletic Jenko becomes a star player on the football team and forges a fraternal bond with kindred spirit Zook (Wyatt Russell). Meanwhile, Schmidt dabbles with slam poetry and becomes attracted to spunky student Maya (Amber Stevens), who lives across the hall from the dead girl with her creepy roommate Mercedes (Jillian Bell). 22 Jump Street is as preposterous and laugh-out-loud funny as its predecessor, engineering new perils for the dunderhead double-act as they solve the case with characteristic toe-curling awkwardness. Of course, there is a smattering of raunchy gags involving sex toys and male appendages but the script’s sweetness always trumps crudity. Hilarious cameos are peppered throughout, even in an extended end credits sequence that suggests Schmidt and Jenko might have a couple more undercover cases in them yet.

22 JUMP STREET (15, 112 mins) Starring Jonah Hill, Channing Tatum and Ice Cube.

VERDICT Plot twists aren’t entirely unexpected but predictability doesn’t spoil our enjoyment one bit as we marvel at Hill and Tatum’s willingness to endure bruising physical pratfalls for our amusement.

Script fails to shine a light on Grace’s inner turmoil

GRACE OF MONACO (PG, 103 mins) Starring Nicole Kidman, Tim Roth, Frank Langella, and Derek Jacobi.

VERDICT It’s hard to muster sympathy for anyone in Grace Of Monaco – not the self-serving bureaucrats nor the privileged social set, who savour the trappings of wealth, birth right and celebrity – and Kidman is poorly served by the script when it comes to layering her breathy delivery with emotion.

Score ★★✩✩✩

44 S E E I T ● ● ● ● ●

livier Dahan’s fictionalised account of a turbulent year in the life of Hollywood actress Grace Kelly begins with newsreel footage of the Oscar-winning star’s lavish wedding to Prince Rainier III. Grainy black and white images are complemented by effusive voiceover, which glowingly predicts the blonde starlet is “destined to live happily ever after with her charming prince”. Alas, the fairy tale doesn’t deliver a happy ever after for Grace Of Monaco, which must have required several blood transfusions following the barrage of razor-sharp critical barbs that greeted the film’s premiere in Cannes last month. Undeniably, Dahan’s picture lacks substance and some of his directorial choices are misjudged, such as photographing the porcelain features of Nicole Kidman in soft-focus close-up for every pivotal scene of emotional turmoil. His camera drifts woozily between her bloodshot eyes and puckered lips as she delivers Arash Amel’s melodramatic script. The year is 1962 and it has been six years since Grace (Kidman) married Prince Rainier III (Roth) and retired from acting to assume her role as glamorous figurehead of the European principality of Monaco. Hitchcock, who directed Grace in Rear Window, Dial M For Murder and To Catch A Thief,

from Friday, June 6, 2014

arrives in Monaco to persuade her to play the kleptomaniac heroine in Marnie. “It’s going to be the role of a lifetime, Gracie!” the filmmaker predicts. Closer to home, president Charles de Gaulle (Andre Penvern) intends to reclaim the principality and demands the citizens of Monaco pay their tax coffers into French pockets. “You agree to my terms or I will send Monaco back to the Dark Ages,” de Gaulle threatens, stopping short of a throaty pantomime villain guffaw. Thus Grace must choose between personal dreams and regal responsibilities, with guidance from ex-pat holy man Father Francis (Frank Langella). Roth is lacklustre and Langella lends gravitas to an endless supply of hoary sermons (“At some point, every fairy tale must end!”). For its myriad failings, including an infuriating inability to address Kelly’s relationship with her children, which is supposedly the catalyst for her inner turmoil, the film has fleeting pleasures. Gigi Lepage’s costumes are gorgeous, allowing Kidman to change attire with dizzying frequency, and when juicy dialogue is scant, the supporting cast merrily chew on scenery. It’s a toss-up between Robert Lindsay’s portrayal of Aristotle Onassis and Ashton-Griffiths’ jowly take on Hitchcock as to who leaves the deepest teeth marks.

Cup capers are W pitch perfect Whether you love or loathe the beautiful game, Bristol Old Vic’s big summer show is sure to be a winner, bringing to life that glorious moment in 1966, writes Natalie Banyard

46 S E E I T ● ● ● ● ●

from Friday, June 6, 2014

hether you have a burning passion for football or plan to avoid the World Cup like the plague, it’s time to surrender to soccer fever and revel in Bristol Old Vic’s feel-good summer show. World Cup Final 1966 follows the path to glory of the players and manager of the 1966 team, culminating in a full-scale re-enactment of the World Cup final live on stage – guaranteeing a win for England this summer! This funny and affectionate show, brings this epic moment in footballing history to life for a new generation while creating a nostalgic walk down memory lane for their grandparents. World Cup Final 1966 is written and directed by Bristol Old Vic’s Tom Morris and long-time collaborator Carl Heap. The show won rave reviews when it was last seen on tour in 2005 and now it’s back and especially re-written for Bristol to celebrate the 2014 FIFA World Cup. The 11-strong cast includes Les Bubb as legendary goalie Gordon Banks. The Gloucester Road-based performer has entertained generations of theatregoers and TV audiences with

his unique style of physical performance. Most recently, he toured with Take That and is starring in this summer’s animated movie Tarzan. “It’s an extraordinary mixture of football, music, song and dance – a real feel-good show,” says Les. “The first half is about the marshalling of the forces and how Alf Ramsey put this unique team together. Before him, the England squad were just a group of individual players from different clubs who hadn’t really bonded with one another. Ramsey pulled his players together and made them a team. “The second half is a complete reconstruction of the 1966 World Cup match, believe it or not!” The cast, which also includes Bristol Old Vic regulars Stewart Wright (Swallows and Amazons, ITV’s Doc Martin), Zara Ramm (Treasure Island) and Tom Wainwright (The Boy Who Cried Wolf) as Ray Wilson, Geoff Hurst and Alan Ball, was announced on the same day as the England squad. And, like our boys bound for Brazil, they have been working hard to get match fit for the show, which runs throughout this year’s World Cup.

“As the England team gathers everyone together, so we assemble our own team at Bristol Old Vic,” laughs Les. “It’s a bit like Oceans Eleven or The Magnificent Seven, with these groups assembling for the big event; each person with their own unique gift.” Les’ own unique gift is in physical theatre. The performer honed his skills on the streets of Europe before becoming a regular of the alternative comedy scene, supporting contemporaries Ben Elton, Stephen Fry and Hugh Laurie, Lenny Henry and Harry Enfield on tour. From 1997 to 2002, Les starred in and co-wrote the young people’s series HUBUBB for BBC 1, taking his distinctive surreal humour to a whole new generation. Les is also in demand as a motion-capture artist, with plenty of green screen experience. His work includes the Harry Potter films, for which he was a voice artist and physical acting coach. He also stars as Jane’s dad Jim Porter in this summer’s animated movie, Tarzan. “I spent many happy years on Harry Potter,”

Les recalls. “I had a range of jobs – although I spent a lot of time hiding behind furniture talking like Dobby the elf! “The Tarzan thing was really interesting too. I was originally just booked to do the motion capture of Jane’s dad, but they decided to keep my voice as well, which made me very happy.” Les continues to travel the world with his work, and even toured with Take That in 2011. “Touring with Take That has to be my favourite job of the last few years,” he beams. “It was brilliant walking out in front of tens of thousands of screaming fans. You could really feel the love. “I’ve been lucky enough to have a very varied career,” he continues, “and World Cup Final 1966 is one I’m really enjoying. “I did worry a bit at first because I’m not much ofafootballfan,butthisisashowthatwillappeal to anyone actually – it’s so entertaining. It’s not stuck in that boring world of fanatical, macho culture – it’s a show for all the family.” ■ World Cup Final 1966, Bristol Old Vic, Thursday, June 12 to Saturday, July 12.

Satire, songs and slapstick Shaun Williamson, who will star in One Man, Two Guvnors at The Bristol Hippodrome, talks to Weekend

e’ve been calling it One Man, Two Guvnors and Three EastEnders,” laughs Shaun Williamson, who spent a decade playing hapless Barry Evans in the BBC1 soap. The National Theatre farce One Man, Two Guvnors has embarked on its biggest UK tour and it’s packed with former residents of Albert Square. The production, which appears at The Bristol Hippodrome from Monday, stars Shaun alongside Emma Barton, who has just returned to EastEnders as ditzy Honey Mitchell, and Jasmyn Banks, who played Alice Branning, last seen behind bars for the murder of Michael Moon. Shaun says: “Funnily enough the three of us never worked together. We’re enjoying working together now, though.” Shaun says it has been impossible to shake off the image of the likeable but dim-witted Barry, something he admits is partly his own doing. “I got sucked into playing Barry for ten years. Then, after leaving EastEnders I starred in Ricky Gervais and Steve Merchant’s Extras and Life’s Too Short, which perpetrated the Barry from EastEnders thing. So I did typecast myself, but at least I did it for the best shows on telly!” Off screen, Shaun is passionate about the theatre and promised himself that he would do at least two stage jobs a year. These have included Guys and Dolls, Porridge and Saturday Night Fever. Now he stars as Charlie in the touring production of One Man, Two Guvnors. Set in 1960s Brighton, Nicholas Hytner’s five star production tells the story of Francis Henshall who, fired from his skiffle band, becomes minder to rival criminals Roscoe Crabbe and Stanley

Stubbers. For various reasons, Henshall must keep his engagements secret from both bosses. The show has been described as a glorious celebration of British comedy – a unique, laugh-out-loud mix of satire, songs and slapstick. “We’re getting an amazing reaction – I’ve never heard laughter like it,” Shaun tells me. “My character Charlie is a bit of a wheeler dealer. I owe a gangster £6,000, so I spend the play desperately trying to find the money. “Gavin Spokes is extraordinary as Francis Henshall, a role made famous by James Cordon. A lot of the play hinges on him and he carries it off beautifully.” In addition to touring, Shaun has recently been filming in Budapest and Bulgaria. “I often get overlooked for roles on TV because of the Barry baggage, but recently I auditioned for a German director who didn’t know anything about EastEnders and I won a wonderful part in a TV mini-series about Harry Houdini, alongside Adrien Brody. We filmed it in Budapest and it comes out this autumn. “I’m ticking off all the old Eastern Block countries, because I was also lucky enough to go to Bulgaria last month to film a sitcom called Plebs for ITV2, which is set in ancient Rome. That was a lot of fun. “But for now I’m concentrating on One Man, Two Guvnors,” he concludes. “I always have a great time in Bristol and The Hippodrome is a beautiful theatre. I’m looking forward to entertaining audiences there.” ■ Monday, June 9 to Saturday, June 14. See listings for details.

The next generation of fantastic Bristol artists

Clowns by Rebecca Weeks PICK OF THE WEEK Creative Industries Degree Show, UWE Bower Ashton and Spike Island sites

he University of the West of England’s annual Creative Industries Degree Show is a highlight of Bristol’s cultural calendar, showing outstanding work by more than 500 new graduates from the university’s renowned art, design and media courses. The show is held jointly across two venues – Bower Ashton Campus near Ashton Court, home of UWE’s Department of Creative Industries, and at Spike Island, where students and staff on UWE’s Fine Art and Visual Culture BA programmes are based. The show is, in short, a vast showcase of the next generation of creative professionals being schooledatUWE.Workondisplaycomesfroma huge variety of courses including Animation, Drawing and Applied Arts, Fashion, Fine Art, Film-making and Creative Media, Graphic Design, Illustration, Journalism, Media, Photography and Printmaking. Among the talented artists displaying their work is graphic design student Will Mower, who was recently commended at the Royal Society of Art Student Design Awards for his Update your Moodclockdesign– a real-timeclockinstallation that helps to brighten people’s days by reminding them that other people have bad days, too. Elsewhere, fashion student Nia SamuelJohnsonisamulti-disciplinaryartist,whosework

encompasses creative direction, set design, styling and photography. For her degree show Nia, who designed and painted the Paisley Gromit during last year’s Gromit Unleashed trail, has produced a fashion film showcasing the outfits of every fashion designer on the course. “My provocative imagery crosses the boundaries of fashion and art, often using a surreal, whimsical style to mask an obscure narrative,” Nia observes. “A bold, playful aesthetic runs throughmy work,oftenwith a use of vividcolour or surface pattern.” The diversity of work on display within Multi-disciplinary Printmaking, meanwhile, is vast and eclectic. One of the MA students exhibiting is artist, photographer and illustrator Nicola Gissing, who has worked with design agencies to produce commissioned print illustrations for major clients and large-scale photographic artworks for building interiors. Nicola’s photographic work, conversely, explores the ephemeral beauty of the world around her, seen in the interplay of light and shadow of a scrap metal still-life, the sensual and abstract quality of flowers, and the changing moods of post-industrial landscapes. She says: “I am in essence a magpie, stealing beauty from the vast nest of the world we inhabit.”

from Friday, June 6, 2014

Sophie Tran studied for her BA in Animation at UWE, before embarking on a part-time Masters in the same field. Her dissertation film Unsinkable chronicles her family’s decision to leave her native Vietnam and their epic journey through Asia to the UK, eventually settling in Tenby, Pembrokeshire. She says: “Over the years, I’ve come to understand that my fictional stories can, occasionally, be too predictable and lack appropriate emotion. The idea behind my final piece came from the desire to create something that was real and honest.” “The Degree Show marks the culmination of years of study, making, networking and professional development, and is an important launchpad for our students into the world of the creative industries,” says Mandy Ure, UWE’s acting head of creative industries. “We have many professional partnerships with organisations such as the BBC and Aardman, and our accent on practice-based production and professional focus gives our graduates the very best chance of realising their ambitions. “We are all extremely proud of the students’ hard work, and we always look forward to following their success in the future.” ■ Friday, June 6 to Thursday, June 12.

NEW VISIONS IV GRANT BRADLEY GALLERY

Catherine Williams creates pen and ink sketches of Bristol and the surrounding area – small, beautifully drawn, delicately coloured, and affordable. For the week of the Westbury Park Festival, the gallery will also exhibit mixed-media works by Jenny Urquhart, prints by Jacqui Watkins and sculpture in stone and clay by Jill Dunmore.

■ This is the fourth instalment of this large annual open-submissions show at Bedminster’s enterprising Grant Bradley Gallery. Each year, the gallery invites artists – local and national, and working across various media – to submit artwork for a show that aims “to represent a broad cross section of the current arts scene in Bristol and the regional area”. “The final result reflects contemporary thought, social commentary and an exploration of beauty,” explains GBG’s Marten Rostel of this year’s line-up. Names you may recognise among the 50-strong roster of artists on view include Bronwen Grover, whose etchings, drawings and photographs document wildlife in all its variety, and Claudio Ahlers, whose “photographic reflections on a state of mind” show lonely, forsaken scenes, and have echoes of that other famous Bristol photographer, Martin Parr. Elsewhere, Cordelia Hutchison creates beautiful, shimmering oil paintings that suggest idyllic childhood memories, while Israeli-born, Somerset-based watercolourist Moish Sokal documents his extensive travels in India, Italy, the West Country and elsewhere. Pictured here, meanwhile, is Plenty by Nadja McDevitt.

■ Saturday, June 7 to Thursday, July 3. See listings for details.

■ Saturday, June 7 to Saturday, August 2. See listings for details.

KATE NEWLYN/CATHERINE WILLIAMS COLDHARBOUR GALLERY ■ Staying with the Westbury Park part of town, local artspace Coldharbour Gallery (which is also involved in the Arts Trail, see below) welcomes these very fine local artists – both creators, in their different ways, of atmospheric, thought-provoking work in 2D and 3D. Kate Newlyn is a sculptor based at Compton Martin just south of town, whose works (Eternity, pictured) – manage to be either humorous or moving, and often both.

WESTBURY PARK ART TRAIL HOMES AND VENUES AROUND WESTBURY PARK ■ After a successful debut last year, Bristol’s newest neighbourhood art trail returns for a second helping. As part of the Westbury Pak Festival (June7-14), you’ll find some 30 artists exhibiting paintings, prints, ceramics, photography, wood carving, jewellery and textiles in their own homes, at the Methodist Church in North View, Westbury Park (where there will also be a Big Draw activity for kids on Saturday), plus local galleries Heart Space, Coldharbour Gallery and Sky Blue Gallery. Artists taking part include Laura Robertson, whose quirky lino prints and paintings often feature teapots and tigers. Elsewhere, sailor and skier Anna Duck-

worth paints energised pictures of sea, sunlight, sports and people; Jonathan Rees creates one-off turned wood art pieces from various indigenous hardwoods; and Sue Rees designs silver and anodised jewellery, with her recent work exploring the use of patterns and colours on aluminium earrings, pendants and bangles (pictured). Trail guides are available in shops and libraries and downloadable from the website at www.westburyparkarttrail.weebly.com. ■ Friday, June 6 and Saturday, June 7. See listings for details.

his weekend’s laughter line-up at Jongleurs includes a set from Jarlath Regan (pictured), a laconic, deadpan Dubliner who got his big break supporting Ardal O’Hanlon on his 2006 tour. Regan regularly gigs around the UK – and, in fact, did the warm-up slot at the filming of BBC1’s much-loved comedy Mrs Brown’s Boys. Regan is joined by another master of deadpan, the drawling, understated Aussie Trevor Crook. As one reviewer eloquently put it, “Crook’s persona is of a broken man beaten up by the relentless series of disappointments that pass for his dull middle-aged life”. This downbeat delivery is really the ace in Crook’s pack, as his material itself is merely average – but he’s still an enjoyable watch. Also on the bill are Rich Wilson, an amiable, laddish Home Counties stand-up, and the party-starting US comic Will.E.

SAM BRADY: KINDNESS THE LITTLE BLACK BOX

n this well-reviewed slice of confessional stand-up, comic Sam Brady tells the story of how he gave up everything in his quest for meaning, leaving his old life behind to become a Buddhist monk in an attempt to transform his consciousness and transcend his ego. After four years, however, he found he hadn’t changed at all. Naturally, Sam reached a low point in his life – perhaps the lowest. And then, one day, he received a tiny act of kindness from an unexpected source. Realising that a moment of compassion could change another person’s life forever, his faith in human nature was restored – and the seeds of this witty, thoughtful and uplifting show were sown. And the act of kindness in question was…? Only one way to find out… Kindness, Brady’s second show after the splendidly-titled Meditation Ruined My Life, looks in at Redland’s bijou Little Black Box Theatre for one night as part of a national tour before Brady takes his confessional comedy up to the Edinburgh Fringe. “A naturally funny and charismatic man,” opinedthereviewssite,ThreeWeeks.“Weheard hilarious (and some quite poignant) anecdotes that drove home his point that, even though humans are flawed, the little acts of kindness really do make a difference.” ■ Chandos Rd, Redland, Bristol, Friday, June 6, 8pm, £6/£8. 0117 909 9399/thelittleblackbox.net.

Circuit comics will be looking in to try out the new material that they’ll be taking to the Fringe, so the lucky and discerning Wardrobe audiences get two full comedy shows by up-and-coming talents for a trifling £5. Friday’s line-up comprises Mat Ewins – a witty, frequently surreal comic who made his first steps here in Bristol before heading up to the capital – and newcomer Phil Jerrold. Next Thursday, meanwhile, the Wardrobe welcomes Chris Stokes (pictured), an up-and-coming comic whose onstage act is built around his geekiness and unmanliness – and who was a big hit at the Comedy Box’s 2012 BrouHaHa festival. Joining him is Adam Hess, whose barked-out one-liners won him the 2011 Chortle Student Comedy Award. ■ St Michael’s Hill, Bristol, Friday, June 6 and Thursday, June 12, 8.45pm, £5. 0117 902 0344/ www.thewardrobetheatre.com.

DARKNESS, DARKNESS JOHN HARVEY

Bristol nurse inspired by Blyton

58 S E E I T ● ● ● ● ●

when she moved to London to train as a nurse. It was there that she met her Bristolian husband Steven, and moved to the city to work at the children’s hospital. She said: “When I was a young girl my ambition was to be a writer, so I wrote the first few thousand words and the memories flooded back. I wasn’t happy at first with the results, but after attending a novel writing course at the Arnolfini I met a bunch of talented aspiring writers who kept me motivated. “I feel a quiet sense of achievement that I have been able to write the book and share my stories, about how very different my upbringing was compared to the present day.” Lily will be signing copies of the book and reading an extract upstairs at Foyles in Cabot Circus from 6pm on Friday, June 6.

★★★★✩ ■ Published in hardback by William Heinemann, priced £18.99 (ebook £6.99).

BOOK OF THE WEEK: Growing Up Under the Mango Tree by Lily Forbes elling stories of her childhood in Malaysia and India, Bristol mother Lily Forbes would often be told by her children that she should write a book. Now she’s done just that. Growing Up Under the Mango Tree is the story of her remarkable rise from humble beginnings in Malaysia to realising her dream of living in England, set against the backdrop of a strict religious upbringing and wider political upheaval. Retired children’s nurse Lily, 67, from Westbury Park, worked as a clinical co-ordinator at Bristol Children’s Hospital, but it’s the tale of how she came to be in the city in the first place that’s the compelling aspect of her life. The middle child of nine, Lily earned herself the nickname of “The English Girl” in her family because she was inspired by the works of Enid Blyton, and other children’s adventure stories from the UK. During Malaysia’s post-war period of political unrest, as the nation strived for independence, she was sent away to India to study to become a doctor, during which time she met two legendary figures from that country’s history: Indira Ghandi and Pandit Nehru. Lily failed her exams and embarked on a forbidden love affair, but it was at this point that she achieved her dream of living in England

■ Nottingham detective Charlie Resnick’s latest case is also his last, with the popular police officer bowing out after a dozen novels with a long-buried crime from his past. The mysterious disappearance of a woman more than 30 years before, during the height of the miners’ strike, comes back to haunt him when her body is finally found and the discovery pitches Resnick – and the reader – back into the heart of the conflict that split Nottingham’s pit villages and mining families apart forever. Harvey switches between the 1980s – with flying pickets clashing with police and rumours of dodgy money flowing in to keep the strike solid – and the present day as he turns over long-hidden secrets in a bid to find the truth. The end result is a gripping detective story and a subtle picture of the changes the UK has seen since the 1980s. It’s a fitting send-off for one of crime fiction’s top cops, but will leave readers wishing he did not have to go.

Growing Up Under the Mango Tree is published by Silverwood Books, priced £10, and will be available to buy via online book retailers

THE TIES THAT BIND ERIN KELLY ■ Unemployed investigative reporter Luke flees Leeds after breaking up with a wealthy boyfriend with stalkerish tendencies. Starting over in Brighton, he finds himself living in a house owned by the city’s notorious Joss Grand, a contemporary of the Krays. He decides he’s hit the jackpot, story-wise, and starts researching a book about a long-unsolved murder that implicates Grand. It looks to be just the career breakthrough he needs until personal and professional lives collide and no one is who they seem. Erin Kelly weaves a masterful web of intrigue, lies and divided loyalties. Her psychological insight and taut plot create a highly satisfying thriller that keeps you on the edge of your seat until the end.

★★★★✩ ■ Published in hardback by Hodder & Stoughton, priced £16.99 (ebook £10.99).

INSTALLATION For many years now we have offered a fully comprehensive installation service in contrast to many of our competitors, who are only set up to handle the core installation work. Long ago we came to recognise that people would prefer to deal with one company, who can do all the work, so that they do not have to deal individually with tradesmen, whose work schedules may be difficult to co-ordinate. Very often we come across kitchens or bathrooms, where a small amount of building work is required, for example a

wall needs removing or an area needs plastering. This is often inconvenient as this work must be completed before the main installation works can start. We spend a long time scheduling each project, so that, wherever possible, one job can move seamlessly to the next, with absolutely minimal disruption. We also offer a comprehensive decorating and tiling service to ensure that all projects can be supervised and completed by us. When customers decide to proceed with us, we always give them a schedule for the week the work will commence. Shortly after placing an order, one of our project managers will visit your home to run through the job with you. Just before the work is due to proceed, a customer services manager contacts you to confirm the start time. The customer service manager is your main point of contact and will be in regular contact throughout the project. One of our project managers will oversee the work. They are all experienced installers and are ultimately responsible for ensuring that our very high standards are maintained. Whatever your needs – a kitchen, bedroom or bathroom – Timbercraft can provide the answers with care and professionalism.

Property of the week

Former manse offers space and charm

rchitecturally, this former manse is a bit of a stunner. Built in 1912, its symmetry and huge mullion windows make quite an impact, while the location, overlooking allotments and a park at the rear, just adds to the curb appeal. Next to the Edwardian property is a coach house, that’s currently used as a garage, with an office and cloakroom above, but planning permission has previously been granted (but is now lapsed) for conversion to a one-bedroom residence. In the main house are four reception rooms, all spacious and light, thanks to large windows and high ceilings. Two of them are connected by an archway, with stripped floorboards on one side, and a beige carpet on the other. There are also two period-style fireplaces. Meanwhile, at the rear of the house is a large kitchen, with white cupboards and pale grey

floor tiles and worktops. A four-ring gas hob and double electric oven are fitted, while elsewhere is space for a dishwasher, washing machine, tumble dryer and fridge/freezer. Through a wide arch is the breakfast room, which overlooks the lovely rear garden and also leads on to a shower room and separate laundry room. On the first floor are five double bedrooms, the master with fitted wardrobes and cupboards and an en suite shower room with a white suite. The main bathroom is also fitted in white. At the front of the property, gates secure a paved garden and Tarmac driveway, which provides parking for three vehicles. The private rear garden, which contains lots of mature shrubs and trees, starts next to the house with a patio, then there is a lawn that ends in a low wall leading to a second patio.

Get the most out of a small space Gardening A small garden requires careful and clever design in order to make the best use of space. Tom Phillips reports.

any houses in Bristol are period properties and the majority of these are Victorian terraces. The design of such terraces varies from street to street, but a common feature is the addition of a modern extension to the rear. Victorians designed fairly small gardens and so it’s important to make the most of every niche available. One area which is often overlooked is the long and narrow space alongside the rear extension. This may only be two metres or so wide and can vary in length depending on the length of the extension. It sounds small and, for this reason, is often neglected, but it can be a useful addition to the garden. In the garden pictured, full use has been made of this corridor through a series of alterations. The most dramatic change was the introduction of tri-folding doors opening from the kitchen into the side alley. The alley was then paved to the same height as the kitchen floor which means that, when the doors are open, there is a natural, flowing link between inside and out. The alley essentially acts as an extension to the kitchen, especially since we covered it with a glass roof that slopes down to the neighbour’s party wall. This makes the area a dry sitting space, although it is still open to the garden. The tri-folding kitchen doors have become the main access to the garden and allows the end of the extension to be used as a sitting room unencumbered by the need for access to the patio doors, which would disrupt and dictate the layout. A wisteria sinensis alba has been trained along the rafters and, when the climber is in flower, a wonderful scent pervades the kitchen. After it has finished flowering, the lime green leaves filter the sunlight and help shade the space during the summer. To extend the use of this space after dark, a simple string of lights has been fixed along the rafters, which, combined with Ikea chandeliers and light catchers, makes for a bright and cheerful space.

Towards the rear, steps lead up to a raised deck and, next to the rear room’s patio doors is another small deck that responds to the split levels of the house. This deck makes an ideal log store. Built within the lower deck are trap doors which open up to provide space for recycling bins and coal storage. Further towards the garden, a small pergola frames the view through to the garden and makes a gateway, which gives an intimate and enclosed feel to the space. An old rose and the same wisteria complete the arch. On either side of the pergola are two small water containers with underwater pumps and

lights that are directed upwards and cast a rippled watery light on to the walls at night. So, even in a small space, a lot can happen with a bit of careful design. When space is limited, you can get really inventive.

‘We hope Bristol will get behind us’ Charlie Lenahan, 15, from Frampton Cotterell, with his mum Karen, has made it to the final of Britain’s Got Talent as half of young singing and rapping duo, Bars and Melody

POINTLESS JUNE 7, BBC1, 7.40PM ■ With the World Cup looming later in the week, Pointless is hosting a special edition featuring former England heroes. Alexander Armstrong will be putting quesions to Sir Geoff Hurst, pictured, and George Cohen (who both played in the 1966 World Cup), Peter Shilton and Steve Bull, England women’s players Hope Powell and Casey Stoney, and Graeme LeSaux and commentator Jonathan Pearce. Quizmaster Richard Osman will be on hand as usual with plenty of tournament trivia.

BRITAIN’S GOT TALENT FINAL JUNE 7, ITV, 7PM

fter seven audition shows and five semi-finals, the big one is finally here. Among the acts vying for a spot at this year’s Royal Variety Performance is Bristol schoolboy Charlie Lenehan, half of singing and rapping duo, Bars and Melody. The pair has stiff competition, however, from the likes of magician Darcy Oake and classical boy band, Collabro. Then there is the octogenarian salsa dancer and her young partner, Paddy and Nico, who, despite injury, have made it to the final, too. But Charlie, 15, and his friend Leondre Devries, 13, won the public vote in their semi-final with their version of I’ll Be Missing You by Puff Daddy, Faith Evans and 112. They also received Simon Cowell’s Golden

65 S E E I T ● ● ● ● ●

Buzzer to fast track them to the live semis in the first place. Charlie said: “We auditioned in Manchester and when Simon Cowell pressed the golden buzzer we were really shocked. I can’t remember much about it as we were so happy and surprised.” Winterbourne International Academy pupil Charlie, who is studying drama and music GCSEs, met Leondre, from Port Talbot, Wales, over Facebook last September. Charlie, who also writes his own music, had put up videos of himself on Facebook and YouTube, some of which had attracted 50,000 hits – and was contacted by Leondre, who was impressed with his work. Charlie added: “I have grown up in Bristol and it’s a place which I love, and I am really hoping the local people will continue to get behind us on Saturday.”

DAVID BECKHAM INTO THE UNKNOWN JUNE 9, BBC1, 8.30PM ■ The trailers are predicting this will show Becks as we’ve never seen him before – and they’re probably right.

Beckham is accompanied on his journey by three good friends: photographer Anthony Mandler; motorbike expert Derek White; and his manager and childhood friend Dave Gardner.
