Win a fantastic copy of WE on DVD, and the accompanying soundtrack
- Wednesday, 23 May 2012
W.E. is a beautifully crafted, passionate tale charting one of the greatest royal love stories of the modern age; the enduring relationship between twice divorced American Wallis Simpson (Andrea Riseborough, Brighton Rock, Made in Dagenham) and King Edward VIII, (James D’Arcy, Master and Commander and the forthcoming Hitchcock) and the toll taken on Wallis as she comprehends the magnitude of the sacrifice that has been made for her.
Viewed through the eyes of a modern day New Yorker, Wally Winthrop (Abbie Cornish, Sucker Punch, Somersault) W.E begins in 1998, and Manhattan is abuzz with anticipation about the upcoming auction of the estate of the Duke and Duchess of Windsor.

Win a copy of A Gentleman's Guide to Motoring - perfect for Father's Day
- Monday, 21 May 2012
From the writer of The Chap Manifesto comes the ultimate illustrated guide to the art of motoring in exquisite style.
If you’ve ever sat in a fifteen mile tailback on the M25, or contemplated the frightening geometrics of certain roundabouts outside Swindon, you might have concluded that the romance of motoring belongs to yesteryear. But it doesn’t have to be like this.
Just because most contemporary car designs lack aesthetic finesse and the majority of our fellow road users often exhibit behaviour no better than slavering beasts, it doesn’t mean that those of an independent frame of mind, with poetry in their soul and vim in their trousers, shouldn’t take a stab at reclaiming the whole adventure of motoring as the sanctified mission of the gentleman.
Life Begins at 92
- Monday, 21 May 2012
An enthusiastic author was delighted when his art went on display in the same week that his debut novel was published – at the age of 92.
Passionate Frank Greenhill is now a popular artist after he took up the pastime during classes at his nursing home. Grandfather-of-five Frank’s stunning water colours of Wiltshire landscapes – drawn from photographs and his memories – are now attracting dozens of commissions.
