around Bath addressing the history of the slave trade. As the Fringe points out: “It wasn’t all Bristol, you know.” One of Richard’s walks takes place on Sunday, June 11, and starts from the Holburne Museum up to Beckford’s Tower, apparently Bath’s last legal slave owners. Sobering stuff. Find out more at walk nowtracks.co.uk. There’ll be more light-hearted fun at an event celebrating the defunct but still fondly remembered Walcot Nation Day. (For those who don’t know this day saw Walcot Street closed to trafﬁc and ﬁlled with revellers). And while it’s not as good as WND returning, we’re pleased to see traders in the artisan street holding special events, plus loads of live bands at The Bell throughout the weekend (June 9-11). All in all, some 36 venues are taking part and there’s even a family programme.

t’s nearly time for the fabulous Fringe festival with 17 days of alternative action taking place in Bath. And, as everything included in the programme has only made it in thanks to the passion of people championing it, you know that plenty of hard work has gone into making it all happen. The festival runs from Friday, May 26, to Sunday, June 11, and has nine categories of entertainment. These include theatre, dance and music. But of course that’s not the half of it. There’s plenty of street theatre, including that by veterans Avanti Display – and the audience might ﬁnd themselves being roped in. Avanti’s Bill Palmer explains: “We have done a try out of some of the ideas and there is now a rather strange, enigmatic or perhaps inscrutable 20-minute piece involving 100 galvanised buckets, which are constructed into a ten foot tower only to be demolished. “What we would like to do next is work with some volunteers to try out ways to develop the audience interaction. “Some of these volunteers might become ‘audience plants’ in the performances.” So you’ve been warned – you have every reason to be suspicious of your audience neighbour! But the Fringe won’t be all fun and games with some events promising a thought-provoking experience. Walking artist and researcher Richard White will be leading walks

FOOD

THE PERFECT WAY TO

treat yourself Best of all was the lamb dish, a main course of different cuts of Salt Marsh lamb rump and neck, served with garden peas, bacon, mint sauce and a delightfully light lamb broth poured by the chef at the table. It was truly delicious and I ate every scrap, feeling that this really showed some of the traditional recipes are still the best. Served with a wonderful Rioja Crianza by Jean Marc, it was absolute food heaven. To cleanse the palate, a delicate deconstructed gooseberry and elderﬂower crumble was served with custard. As if that was not enough, I was then treated to an unbelievably delicious Eve’s Pudding, with Somerset apple, sponge and a most piquant salted caramel. Presentation and taste was exquisitely light, bringing a modern twist to this age-old recipe. Served with a Taittinger Nocturne it was a perfect way to end a really special evening of delightfully British food in glorious surroundings and with personal service. After coffee or speciality teas accompanied by homemade petit fours, it was time to leave this oasis and brave the hustle and bustle of the city outside. The tasting menu is available until October and costs £125 per person. The menu is subject to change to incorporate seasonal produce.

Nancy Connolly visits the Royal Crescent Hotel to ﬁnd out how the other half lives

hen I was invited to try a new tasting menu at the Royal Crescent Hotel, how could I resist? For me, this hotel really provides an insight into how the other half lives. I know it’s expensive but, for my money, it’s the perfect place for a special treat. It has to be said, however, that it wasn’t my money being spent this time as I was a guest of the stunning hotel. After all – it’s a hard job but someone has to do it! From the moment I stepped inside I was transported to another world, especially walking through the sumptuous garden leading to the hotel’s famous Dower House restaurant. To celebrate the iconic Royal Crescent’s 250th anniversary, the hotel has teamed up with Taittinger Champagne for a new tasting menu taking diners on a gastronomic journey through British history. Each dish has been paired with a wine or Champagne selected by the hotel’s head sommelier Jean Marc Leitio, whose enthusiasm and passion for the subject is intoxicating in itself. And with all those bubbles who can blame him? To create this menu, executive head chef David Campbell has incorporat-

ed some traditional British dishes and given them a modern twist. I felt like royalty. Nothing was rushed and I sat back and relaxed in the hotel’s glorious surroundings. And the food? Well that was like a delicious explosion on the palate. First up was a delicate cucumber soup with Earl Grey tea-cured salmon, combined with lime and nasturtium leaf, paired with a Taittinger Brut Reserve. It was a beautifully delicate and refreshing opener and it prepared the palate for the feast still to come. The second course of Bath chaps was a new version of a traditional dish that chef David has modernised, retaining all the unique ﬂavours associated with Bath chaps but using a 65-day dry-aged middle white pork and a contemporary style to ﬁnish the dish. It was delicious, with a crispy cheek, smoked loin, English mustard, pickled shallot and garden herbs and leaves and it was served with a Taittinger Rosé. Next up was the mackerel tartare with gentleman’s relish, leek ash and English sorrel. This was a wonderfully balanced and aromatic dish capturing the essence of British cooking.

RECIPE

MICHELIN-STARRED ATUL KOCHHAR SHOWS US HOW TO MAKE CURRIES IN MINUTES, AND TELLS KATE WHITING HE LEARNED TO COOK TO GET OUT OF CLEANING AND THAT HIS SON INSPIRES HIS RECIPES

tul Kochhar is reminiscing about the day he became the ﬁrst Indian chef to be awarded the gold standard for culinary expertise – a Michelin star – as head chef at Tamarind in 2001. “I remember as if it were yesterday... A journalist from the Evening Standard called and said, ‘You have a Michelin star’ and I said, ‘No, no, I don’t have a Michelin star’ and hung the phone up. Then he called back and said, ‘No, I was trying to tell you that you’ve got a Michelin star, you’ve been awarded one’ and I started shaking, I couldn’t believe it.” To cap it all, that evening Gordon Ramsay came to eat at the restaurant to celebrate achieving his third Michelin star: “He was eating my food to celebrate his third star with his wife and family. He came to the kitchen to congratulate everyone and he was so chatty. Obviously he was very happy for his third star, but he genuinely was very happy that we got the star as well.” Six years later, Atul, 47, was awarded a second Michelin star for his own restaurant, Benares. Despite all the acclaim, however, he’s now turning his attention to slightly more simple fare in his latest book, 30 Minute Curries. “Everybody expects me to write complicated books and I won’t deny it, I have done that. I wrote the Benares cookbook and each recipe has got six recipes in it. But I’m also a father and when I cook at home, I’m not cooking Michelin-starred food, I’m cooking everyday food.

“I’ve learnt shortcuts to put food on the table really quickly – there’s only so much time kids can hold out – so this book is to celebrate that. And also, [people say] Indian food takes forever, but it doesn’t. Anybody can do it, so I’m sharing my techniques of how you can do it very quickly. Every recipe actually comes under 25 minutes.” His book is movingly dedicated to his son (“my best friend”), 11-yearold Arjun, who inspires Atul to be inventive with food. “Arjun has strong likes and dislikes... One of his pet hates is broccoli, so I keep making it in different ways. Last weekend, I made chickpea burgers, so I put broccoli in there and told him if he can find it then he can get some Lego. He couldn’t trace it. “He believes that certain flavours work and certain ones don’t, so for example, I think carrot and ginger works and he says, ‘Little people don’t like ginger, it’s too stringy, too strong, there have to be better ways to use it’. So, he said, ‘Why don’t you make a paste of ginger?’ You get the flavour, but you don’t get the texture. It was interesting to hear this little person talk about food.” His daughter, Amisha, 13, is very different: “She has an incredible palate and she’s quite a good critic as well. When they both eat at Benares, my maitre d’ never asks them how the meal was, because he knows he’ll get detailed feedback.” Atul was born in Jamshedpur, India, and learned to cook from both his parents. “We were a slightly unusual Indi-

an family – boys are normally made to look like gods and they become couch potatoes, but not in my house. My mum said from day one, everybody lives in the house so everybody has to [help]. I paired up with my oldest sister, we always cooked together, and my other sister and younger brother were on cleaning duty. I hated it when I had to clean up, I still hate it. So that taught me how to cook.” His favourite childhood food was a type of dumpling called Litti, which was stuffed with lentils and thrown in the hot ashes of a ﬁre for a few hours: “You dust the ash away and then dip them in a nice potato curry. I absolutely loved it.” He’s thrilled that Brits have long had a love affair with Indian food that is growing all the time: “I look at someone like Tom Kerridge, a quintessentially British chef, but he uses more coriander powder and cumin powder than I would ever use in my food. It’s heart-warming, it’s good to see that it’s opening up. I love it.”

PRAWN AND COCONUT CURRY (narkol chengri moli) (Serves 4) 500g raw peeled tiger prawns 3 green cardamom pods Fresh coriander leaves 1tbsp ghee or vegetable oil 2 cloves 1 dried bay leaf 1 cinnamon stick 1tbsp onion paste (see recipe, right) 1/2tsp red chilli powder, or to taste 1/4tsp ground turmeric 250ml coconut milk Sea salt Method Assemble all the ingredients and equipment before you begin. You

need a large saute or frying pan with a lid. Remove and discard the prawn tails, if necessary. Lightly crush the cardamom pods to loosen the seeds. Rinse and chop enough coriander leaves to make about one tablespoon. Melt the ghee over a medium-high heat in the pan. Add the cardamom pods and the seeds, the cloves, bay leaf and cinnamon stick, and stir until the spices crackle. Add the onion paste and stir it into the oil for 30 seconds. Add the chilli powder and turmeric and stir for 30 seconds to cook the spices. Watch closely so they

do not burn. Reduce the heat to medium and add the prawns and coconut milk. Season with salt and continue stirring for 30 seconds, or until the prawns turn pink on both sides. Take care not to over-cook the prawns. Adjust the seasoning with salt, if necessary, and stir in the chopped coriander just before serving.

ONION PASTE (Makes about 600g) 2tbsp vegetable oil 500g onions, coarsely chopped 100g (about 6tbsp) ginger-garlic paste (see below) 1tsp sea salt Method Heat the oil over a medium-high heat in a large saute or frying pan that is ideally non-stick. Add the onions, the ginger-garlic paste and salt, and stir frequently for 25 minutes, or until the onions are browned. Watch carefully towards the end of cooking so the mixture doesn’t catch and burn, which can happen very quickly. If they do burn, you’ll have to throw them out and start over – there isn’t any way to rescue them. Transfer the mixture to a food processor while it’s still warm and blitz to a ﬁne paste. Leave to cool completely, then store in a covered container in the fridge for up to four weeks, or freeze for up to three months.

GINGER-GARLIC PASTE (Makes about 225g) 2 large garlic heads, 75g each, separated into cloves and peeled 150g fresh ginger, peeled weight, coarsely chopped 2tbsp water Method Put the garlic cloves, ginger and water in a food processor ﬁtted with a chopping blade and blitz, scraping down the sides of the bowl as necessary, until a paste forms. This keeps in a covered container in the fridge for up to four weeks, or can be frozen for up to three months.

RECIPE

Strong, year-round sales mean the future’s looking rosy for the pink stuﬀ, says Sam Wylie-Harris

CLOUD CHASER COTES DE PROVENCE ROSÉ 2015, France (£17.95, www.31dover.com) This wine will dispel any thoughts that pinks are for picnics. Intense, with a soft, round sensuous palate, the sumptuous berry fruits are lined with apricot and peach accents and the ﬁnish is long and expressive.

MIRABEAU PURE ROSE 2016, Cotes de Provence, France (£12.99, Waitrose) Delicate fresh berry fruits and blossomy aromas.

CHATEAU CAVALIER CUVEE CASCADEL COTES DE PROVENCE 2016, France (£13, Marks & Spencer) This has an array of freshly crushed berry aromas and is full of juicy yellow plum and white peach flavours, with a fine thread of acidity on the crisp, clean finish.

L’ART PROVENCAL ROSÉ 2016, France (£9.99, www. laithwaites.co.uk) Light and zingy, but with enough wild strawberry fruits, currant and plum, dried herbal notes and a shimmering streak of minerality to keep you coming back for more.

The new line of luxe towel wraps come in white, navy or lilac trim, £49.50 each, but you can get 15 per cent oﬀ all wraps until the end of May. Use code TMC31. The Modesty Company Classic Wrap, £49.50 (www. themodestycompany.com)

he SS17 catwalks practically turned into a barcode of stripyness, ranging from subtle PJ pinstripes to uberbold panels. With all those clean, straight lines, stripes are the minimalist’s way to do impactful prints. Classic monochrome is the starkest way to wear them, while multicoloured seaside stripes are the loudest – think of the brightest deckchair on a beautiful beach. Line up for this summer’s hottest stripes...

ZEBRA CROSSING If you’re fully committed to the linear look, go bold with uberwide vertical or horizontal stripes. There’s no softly-softly approach with supersized stripes but, as a rule, keep one of the contrasting colours in a neutral, like black, navy, cream or white, to avoid overkill. Black and white is everyone’s best friend but red and cream is this summer’s hottest colour combo. STRIPE STYLE TIP: Wear your silhouettes in extremes, such as wide-leg pants or a structured dress to give bold stripes a good canvas. TRY: 1. J by Jasper Conran at Debenhams stripe skirt, £70, out end of May (debenhams.com); 2. Finery Savona Stripe Dress, £149 (ﬁnerylondon.com); 3.

CLASH TACTICS If one stripe isn’t enough, do the double. This season stripes are pre-primed to clash, whether it’s diﬀerent directions, mixed bands, or contrasting colours. Think of your body as a human barcode. Go clash crazy with one piece where the work has all been done for you, or try separates with diﬀerent stripe

PYJAMA PARTY They were once the kind of stripes you snoozed in, but pyjama stripes are enjoying a moment outside

2 of the bedroom. If you’re feeling brave (or sleepy), go for a full Lanvin-inspired two-piece stripeathon with matching top and trousers. For a more subtle approach, pull on a nightshirt-style tunic with jeans, so there’s no mistaking your nightwear as daywear. STRIPE STYLE TIP: PJstyle stripe pieces are best served in sheeny fabrics, like silk. Look for seamless underwear to avoid any show-through. TRY: 6.

SUNSCREEN

Stay protected this summer with the latest sunscreens for all occasions. Lisa Haynes shows you how to up your SPF game

that bit more thorough.

unscreen shouldn’t be just for heatwaves and holidays – over summer especially, you need to boost your sun protection factor (SPF) armoury. Luckily, the beauty world is making creams easier to apply (tick) and way more niche for your individual skincare needs (double tick). Yes, these sunscreens have broad-spectrum protection to guard the skin against UVA (ageing) and UBV (burning) rays, but the newest formulations are going that extra mile to make sun protection more bespoke. Meet the innovative new sun potions you need to know about this summer...

FOR BEACH BABES TRY: Vichy Ideal Soleil AntiSand SPF50, £18 (vichy.co.uk) No need to camp around the pool if you’re sand-averse with Vichy’s clever lotion. The lightweight formulation is easily absorbed with an ultra-dry ﬁnish that allows sand to be brushed oﬀ easily, so you can make sandcastles to your heart’s content.

FOR SKIN ZEN TRY: Eau Thermale Avene Cleanance Solaire SPF50+, £16 (Boots) When sunscreen and skincare combine... Step forward Avene’s forward-thinking lotion that actively ﬁghts blemishes. Cleanance Solaire contains an ingredient that inhibits the excess sebum common in acne-prone skin and protects existing blemishes from sun side eﬀects.

FOR SKINCARE ADDICTS TRY: Clinique Anti-Wrinkle Face Cream SPF30, £18 (clinique.co.uk) Trust skincare giant Clinique to come up with a sunscreen that simultaneously protects and de-ages. Its new AntiWrinkle Face Cream SPF30 includes a blend of antioxidant and repair ingredients to help strengthen and rebuild your skin’s moisture barrier as you bask in the sun.

FOR TAN SEEKERS TRY: Ultrasun Body Tan Activator SPF30, £28 (marksandspencer.com) Boost your bronze with Ultrasun’s new Tan Activator range. You still get a high SPF hit but the natural tan enhancer (BronzylTM) activates your production of melanin and accelerates the tanning process by about 40 per cent in 10 days, so you can spend less time chasing a tan.

FOR SPEED DEMONS TRY: La Roche-Posay Anthelios Anti-Shine Invisible Fresh Mist SPF50, £14 (Boots)

FOR GLOW-GETTERS

Shiseido’s sweatproof tint. Enhance your sporty look with the highprotection BB cream that’s light, dewy and won’t rub oﬀ when you’re putting in a Wimbledon-worthy performance on the court.

Go hands-free with La Roche-Posay’s new anti-shine wonder. The super-ﬁne, invisible mist gives you an even protection that’s easily absorbed, so there’s no need to rub in. Its patented molecule Airlicium leaves oilprone skin shine-free so you can spritz over or under make-up.

FOR SENSITIVE BITS TRY: Tropic Skincare Sun Balm SPF50, £16 (tropicskincare.com) Avoid lobster-red zones in awkward spots with Tropic Skincare’s transportable Sun Balm. The highprotection balm comes in solid form, so you can smooth over tricky areas like the nose, ears and feet to be

FOR CITY SLICKERS TRY: Murad City Skin Age Defense Broad Spectrum SPF50, £45 (murad.co.uk) You don’t have to be beachbound to protect your face. Whether it’s city break or daily grind, Murad’s hightech mineral sunscreen ticks oﬀ protection against pollution, infrared radiation and blue light, as well as UVA and UVB rays.

HOLIDAY VIBE "If you don't have any outside space, transform your room into a romantic summer garden with a wooden chandelier, some plants and the gentle glow of candlelight," says Lucinda Waterhouse, OKA founder. Chandeliers made out of wood or beads create a relaxed holiday vibe and have a charm of their own, but don't be afraid to consider crystal. Cut glass catches the light (crystal casts a soft glow) and along with being a thing of beauty, it can brighten the darkest of rooms.

IDEAS LOOKING TO BRIGHTEN UP YOUR HOME FOR SUMMER? IT TAKES A MERE FLICK OF THE SWITCH, SAYS SAM WYLIE-HARRIS

Home Collection Avery Crystal Glass Flush Light

SPLASH OF COLOUR "Lighting is a great carrier for colour. During the summer months, inserting splashes of vibrancy and colour either in bases or shades is a great way to update your decor to complement the warmer weather," says Sophie Amini, designer at Pooky Lighting. "Using lighting is less risky than doing a whole wall or a set of curtains in one bright colour. It can enhance a room yet allow for ﬂexibility, and does not have to be a huge expense. We have a beautiful range of table lamps in a range of materials, which are an aﬀordable and simple way of adding colour and interest to your room without breaking the bank.

"Even when you switch them oﬀ, your lamp will still look beautiful." Indeed, investing in a funky shade, base or exotic palmshaped table lamp, and mix 'n' matching with cutting-edge pieces that can be moved around is far more fun (and less risky) than committing to a curtain call that looks the same 24/7.  1.

WARM GLOW “People tend to underestimate the use and importance of light during summer, as we have natural light for so much longer. Whether you’re looking to add new lighting indoors or outdoors, the right lighting can really enhance your experience,” says Chris Jordan, managing director at Christopher Wray. “Indoors, it’s great to go for fittings and shades that are lighter and airy, something that evokes warm weather and far-off destinations. “The Floriss, with its colourful, petalshaped folds, mimics the lush foliage outdoors, while the Planet’s fabric sphere is lined in the same way as leaves. The natural form and colour of these pendants create a softer light that works brilliantly in the twilight hours.” And if you really want to pull the plug on dated fluorescent lighting, refreshing citrus colours are all the rage at Amara. The luxury homeware brand suggests pairing its orange and lime accessories against a white backdrop, to allow the colours to create a bold focal point in the room.  Floriss Suspension Light, Lime Green, from £645 (halogen), Christopher Wray (www.christopherwray.com)  Planet, from £694 (50cm), Christopher Wray (www.christopherwray.com)  Kartell Ceiling Light, Orange, £187, Amara (www.amara.com)

EVER CHANGING MOODS When it comes to highlighting certain areas of the room, it's important to consider where the natural light is falling, especially when there's a bright blue sky outside. Whether it's a neutral background or moody paint effects, if you want to create a brighter, more open feel within the space, the colour of the walls and use of lighting is essential. "Introducing oversized lighting is a fantastic way to add drama and interest to a living space," says John Sims-Hilditch, co-founder of Neptune. "The atmosphere that's created from the light cast of a large pendant light can really alter the mood of a room. The material and colour of the drum is also an effective decorative accessory even when the light is switched off." Even choosing the correct light bulb for your pendant light is a

simple way of altering the feel of the room, suggests Sims-Hilditch. Ask yourself how you want this room to make you feel. "Light has the power to create a peaceful environment, where it can mimic natural pools of light, creating a serene ambience in your own home. Using a lower wattage allows for a more calming exposure, perfect for areas of the home that are intended to relax in.”  Corinium Lampstand Medium, £105, Oliver Lampshade, Warm White, from £16, furniture from a selection (top left), Neptune (www. neptune.com)  Keats Pendant, Small, £78, (top right) Neptune (www.neptune.com)  Grenadier Table Lamp, Saﬀron, £135, 40cm Pleated Phula Silk Empire Lampshade, £98, console table and mirror from a selection, Oka (all left – www.oka.com)

Shelf portraits ELEANOR OLIPHANT IS COMPLETELY FINE BY GAIL HONEYMAN is published in hardback by HarperCollins, priced £12.99 (ebook £7.99) There are some books whose narrator is so well written, so human and instantly engaging, that they have you right from the first line. Such is the case with Gail Honeyman’s Eleanor Oliphant. It’s unremarkable as first lines go (“When people ask me what I do – taxi drivers, hairdressers – I tell them I work in an office”), but it subtly poses questions and tees up the most refreshing and heartwarming debut I’ve read in some time. Eleanor has worked at the same boring job for eight years. She has the same routine: home to her council flat, The Archers and pasta with pesto and salad for tea. On a Friday evening, she buys a margherita pizza and two bottles of vodka to see her through the weekend: “Monday takes a long time to come round.” Eleanor, who’s 31, was in care through much of her childhood and has hazy flashbacks to a traumatic event. Her mum calls on Wednesday evening from prison, and there’s no love between them. When scruffy new office IT guy Raymond and Eleanor see an elderly man take a tumble, it draws the two of them together into a tentative friendship that will eventually help Eleanor break free from her lonely existence and learn how to live. Not only is she a joy to read as a character, brave, smart and funny, Eleanor will give readers some perspective on their own lives.

THE ICE BY LALINE PAULL is published in hardback by Fourth Estate, priced £12.99 (ebook £7.99) This is the second novel from the author of the much-praised The Bees. Set in the near future, the action alternates between Britain and Arctic Norway as “very modern buccaneer” Sean Cawson pursues commercial success in Europe’s far north, while haunted by the accidental (or was it?) death of his business partner, environmentally aware Tom Harding. Among the clues that this is set a few years from now are the introduction of a top barrister as a “KC”, not “QC”,

and the fact that most ice at the North Pole has melted, opening a trade route across the top of the world and raising the prospect of both the exploitation of natural resources and great-power territorial disputes (Putin’s Russia actually planted a ﬂag on the Polar seabed in 2007). This could have been preachy in a green sort of way. It isn’t. The excitement of Cawson (and others) is given a fair hearing, and much of the action takes place in that underused source of drama, the British coroner’s court.

end. Timbuktu, in modern-day Mali, long a place of learning and culture, was considered sinful by its detractors, in this case the alQaeda-inspired conquerors who took control in 2012. Author and journalist Charlie English, from a long line of Britons fascinated by the stronghold on the edge of the Sahara, tells of the Monument Men-style eﬀorts to preserve ancient manuscripts against invaders determined to erase history. The occupiers would later be ejected and while some Suﬁ shrines were damaged, the rescue operation saved many manuscripts. English interweaves tales of its more distant past, including that of 14th-century Mansa (King) Musa, associated with Timbuktu’s golden age, who was so generous with his gold to those less fortunate that the precious metal’s market value collapsed.

DAN ATKINSON

THESE DIVIDING WALLS BY FRAN COOPER is published in hardback by Hodder & Stoughton, priced £14.99 (ebook £6.99) Fran Cooper, who grew up in London but spent three years in Paris while writing her PhD, sets her ﬁrst novel in an unfashionable quarter of the French capital during a hot summer when tensions are rising. The residents of an apartment complex barely know each other except to exchange a greeting when they pass in the courtyard, but their lives become intertwined as what goes on behind their closed front doors is slowly revealed. Edward, a young Brit looking to escape his past, arrives and meets a cast of characters, including Cesar, who is hiding secrets from his wife; Anais, who is crumbling under the pressure of caring for her young children; and Madame Marin, whose husband turns a blind eye to her nocturnal outings. Cooper avoids turning the less pleasant residents among them into lazy stereotypes, and her threedimensional characters are what make this novel so readable.

WAVE ME GOODBYE BY JACQUELINE WILSON is published in hardback by Doubleday Childrens, priced £12.99 (ebook £8.99) Over three days in September 1939, 1.5 million children were evacuated from cities to the countryside. Much venerated children’s author Jacqueline Wilson has turned to this period for her remarkable 106th book. It opens as 10-year-old Londoner Shirley is woken early by her mum and asked if she’d like to “go on a little holiday”. It soon becomes clear she’s going by herself. At Victoria station, she’s rushed onto a train with a group of schoolgirls from a convent school and makes ﬁrm friends with the bespectacled Jessica. But once they arrive at Meadow Ridge, they’re separated and Shirley has the ignominy of being passed over for her schoolmates by the mums who have oﬀered to take in evacuees. Eventually she’s billeted with the two remaining boys. Wilson has an incredible ability to inhabit her child characters so precisely and Wave Me Goodbye will be like Nina Bawden’s Carrie’s War for a new generation of children learning about our country’s past.

DAVID CLENSY AND HIS FAMILY ENJOY AN ADVENTURE ON THE ISLE OF WIGHT

ON THE FAMOUS FIVE TRAIL A

s we made our way out of the Solent and the outline of the Isle of Wight’s northern coast emerged beyond the bow of the Red Funnel line ferry, my two little boys were beside themselves with excitement. Our six-year-old bounced on the spot chattering on about all the things we could do across our long weekend away, while our four-year-old simply clenched his fists with a shudder at the thought of all the adventures that lay ahead. You see, when you’re four and six it’s all about adventures. Whether you’re a pirate for the day or a train driver, the adventures are in a constant free-flow in your young imaginations, so to get the chance to live some of them for real is almost too exciting for words. For lovers of Enid Blyton’s Famous Five, 2017 is a landmark year – 75 years since the very first book in the series, Five On A Treasure Island, was published, and as we drove off the ferry boat and trundled across the island, I couldn’t help but think there was something of the spirit of Enid Blyton at play in their bubbling excitement. In their young minds, like Julian, Dick, Anne and George seven and a half decades before, the world was unfolding before them like a series of Blyton chapters, and on a few occasions during our stay, I could have sworn I heard the distant bark of Timmy on the wind.

Most of the gang’s adventures ended with lashings and lashings of ginger beer, but I thought that would be a better place to start – so over a handsome meal at the wonderfully welcoming Boathouse at Seaview, we planned our own weekend family adventure. It should begin, we quickly decided, at full steam – so we headed straight to the village of Havenstreet, for a ride on the enchanting Isle of Wight Steam Railway. From the moment we stepped into the station, it was like stepping straight back to the time of Julian, Dick, Anne, George and Timmy. With eyes as wide as saucers, our boys lapped up the scenery as our train cut a swathe of steam across the island’s rolling countryside. With a scream of the whistle and a moment of darkness through the tunnels straight out of an Agatha Christie novel, the scene was set for an afternoon of giggles. Back at Havenstreet we explored the centre’s extensive steam train museum, before heading on to ﬁnd our accommodation for the weekend – the Orchards Holiday Park in Newbridge, where a surprisingly plush static caravan became the headquarters for our family adventure. The next morning we headed to Tapnell Farm, where the boys had their own adventures in the impres-

sive soft play area, while Mum and Dad enjoyed a coffee and a moment’s rest. The farm’s living exhibits range from goats to wallabies, with plenty to keep young minds entertained. We even came face-toface with owls and other birds of prey who were a visiting exhibit from the nearby Haven Falconry centre. All in all, we were all feeling famished by the time we headed to the neighbouring Cow Co restaurant for a slap-up steak lunch. I checked out the drinks menu thinking we’d better start lashing out the ginger beer again. Our ﬁnal adventure came the following morning, with a trip to Carisbrooke Castle. One of the most important strongholds on the Isle of Wight since Saxon times, the castle was also the unwilling home to King Charles I from 1647-8, when he tried and failed to escape twice. To walk into the bedroom where the miserable monarch rested his soonto-be separated head is a spine-tin-

We climbed to the top, up more than 80 steps to stand beneath the ﬂuttering ﬂag on top of the keep, as the Isle of Wight stretched out around us. “Wow,” my two little boys said in unison as they looked out across the view, with smiles that beamed just like faces from the cover of an Enid Blyton adventure story.

Johnny Depp reprises his role as Jack Sparrow for Salazar’s Revenge

Pirate tale still buoyant FILM OF THE WEEK: PIRATES OF THE CARIBBEAN: SALAZAR’S REVENGE ★★★✩✩ (12A, 129 mins) Johnny Depp, Javier Bardem, Geoﬀrey Bush, Kaya Scodelario, Brenton Thwaites, Orlando Bloom, Lewis McGowan. Directors: Joachim Ronning, Espen Sandberg.

he third and fourth voyages of the Pirates Of The Caribbean saga, At World’s End and On Stranger Tides, sprung leaks in their ramshackle screenplays and capsized under the weight of feverish expectation. After a six-year hiatus for long overdue repairs, the blockbusting series sets sail with two new directors at the helm – Joachim Ronning and Espen Sandberg – and Johnny Depp swabbing the decks in his familiar guise as salty sea dog Jack Sparrow. Pirates Of The Caribbean: Salazar’s Revenge is a marked improvement and anchors the outlandish action to solid performances from two charismatic young actors, Kaya Scodelario and Brenton Thwaites, with simmering on-screen chemistry. Depp continues to ply his comic schtick with wide-eyed gusto and Spanish actor Javier Bardem, who collected an Oscar for his chilling turn in No Country For Old Men, is a lip-smacking phantasmagorical villain from the watery underworld. Action sequences are spectacular, including the hysterically overblown theft of a bank safe and a dizzying dance of death between Jack and a guillotine blade.

to the hiding place of the trident. The duo join forces and unexpectedly cross paths with Jack Sparrow (Depp). He is being pursued by spectral pirate Captain Armando Salazar (Bardem), who has escaped from the Devil’s Triangle and intends to exact revenge, aided by Jack’s old adversary Captain Hector Barbossa (Geoffrey Rush). A little Depp goes a long way in Pirates Of The Caribbean: Salazar’s Revenge. He makes merry with his treasure chest of physical pratfalls and garbled one-liners. Ronning and Sandberg keep a firm hand on the rudder and navigate a largely entertaining course between eye-popping spectacle and family feuds. Their film is advertised as the “final” adventure and it would be sensible to drop the mainsail here while the series is still buoyant.

The ﬁfth chapter has its pleasures but it’s not all plain sailing. The return of Will Turner (Orlando Bloom) and another original character is misjudged, a central plot thread is disappointingly similar to another summer blockbuster, and the 129-minute running time feels excessive. A superﬂuous cameo for Paul McCartney as a fellow pirate also should have walked the gangplank. Twelve-year-old Henry Turner (Lewis McGowan) stows away on the wreck of the Flying Dutchman in order to be reunited with his father Will (Bloom). “This is my fate. You must let me go,” pleads Will, who is condemned to serve as captain of the watery vessel for eternity... unless his son can track down the mythical Trident of Poseidon. Nine years later, Henry (now played by Brenton Thwaites) searches for the artefact’s whereabouts on the island of St Martin in the Caribbean, where he meets plucky astronomer Carina Smyth (Kaya Scodelario), who is labelled a witch because of her unerring love of science. She possesses a diary penned by Galileo Galilei, which contains clues

VERDICT This could be the ﬁnal instalment for the Pirates Of The Caribbean franchise, and new directors and great young actors have made this a movie worth seeing.

SPARK (PG, 91 mins) A planet of apes goes to war in writer-director Aaron Woodley’s otherworldly computer-animated fable, which is second-hand in almost every respect, including a flimsy plot that awkwardly melds The Lion King and Zootropolis with Ratchet And Clank. The simplicity of the animation coupled with subdued vocal performances, leave Woodley’s picture marooned in space, tumbling out of control towards a black hole of mediocrity. A brief prologue relates the destruction of the planet Bana at the hands of his “eternal malevolency” Zhong (voiced by Alan C Peterson), who unleashes a space kraken with the power to create black holes. A newborn called Spark (Jace Norman) is saved from oblivion by his self-sacrificing parents and the infant is spirited away to one broken shard of Bana by a robotic carer, Bananny (Susan Sarandon). At the age of 13, Spark steals a ship and makes a secret flight to the remains of his home planet, accompanied by cute cockroach Floyd. Subsequently, Spark encounters the Queen (Hilary Swank) and becomes a pawn in a life-or-death battle. Woodley’s script moves at warp speed, sacrificing development of two-dimensional characters at the altar of action set pieces. Gags miss more targets than they hit and a quartet of squeaking space cockroaches, which become Spark’s allies in adversity, owe much to the Minions from Despicable Me.

PAUL HOLLYWOOD IS SWAPPING THE BAKE OFF TENT FOR THE OPEN ROADS OF EUROPE IN HIS NEW SERIES, HE TELLS SUSAN GRIFFIN

e might be known for his bread and buns but away from the oven, Paul Hollywood’s a petrol head and loves nothing more than racing cars. “Baking is my career, it’s what I am. The whole presenter thing is an accident. I’m a baker by trade but my hobby was always cars,” says The Great British Bake Off judge. He’s been passionate about motors “for as long as I can remember”. “My dad used to have several cars growing up – nothing particularly special, but I just loved cars,” declares Paul, who shared his enthusiasm for motors on BBC programmes Racing Legends and Licence To Thrill: Paul Hollywood Meets Aston Martin in 2015. The same year he represented the racing team Beechdean Aston Mar-

tin in the British GT Championship. “When I was about 13, I fell in love with the TR7. Don’t ask me why, I just did. It was this chocolate one with chequered seats in a garage down the road from where we grew up in the Wirral,” he recalls in his familiar Liverpool twang. “I used to go and watch this car every night and go and look at it because I just loved it.” No wonder he describes his latest show, Paul Hollywood’s Big Continental Road Trip, as “a dream job for me”. In the three-part series, Paul travels to Germany, France and Italy, endeavouring to understand more about each country through its love of cars. “It didn’t feel like work,” he says. “The travel was just amazing we went to some really beautiful places.

WHEN I WAS ABOUT 13, I FELL IN LOVE WITH THE TR7. DON’T ASK ME WHY, I JUST DID. IT WAS THIS CHOCOLATE ONE WITH CHEQUERED SEATS IN A GARAGE DOWN THE ROAD FROM WHERE WE GREW UP IN THE WIRRAL

I thought, ‘This is magic, it really is magic’.” One of the most memorable experiences was driving around Italy in a Lamborghini alongside Strictly Come Dancing’s Bruno Tonioli. “We nearly got arrested for speeding around Rome. He was petriﬁed, bless him,” recalls Paul, who was particularly taken with Ivrea. “It’s where we had the orange ﬁght. It was mental, it really was crazy. Most of my clothes I had to chuck because they stink of orange. I smelt like a crepe Suzette,” he says, recalling his participation in the town’s annual Battle of the Oranges. “The people are just so passionate about what they do, which is the point we were trying to make. Even though they’re just throwing oranges, it means something.”

In Germany, he stopped off to serve up some spicy food from the back of a VW van to some nudists. “This is a country which is very formal. We think of them as very straight, no sense of humour, and yet this country started the whole nudist movement. “We were in the Kombi van, just going there and spending a couple of hours with these people. They were very funny, absolutely hilarious. I didn’t know where to look. Never, ever take your eye off their eyeball. Just keep your head in one place and look at them in the eye.” Was he tempted to strip off? “When they told me, I went, ‘No, no, no. I’m not getting my kit off, it’s not going to happen’.” Not even for his fans? “They’d be disappointed if I did that!” he laughs. Paul believes the show stands apart from others in the genre because “we’re trying to find out about the places as well as the people”. “The cars were almost the transport to take me to the people, to learn about why Italians like supercars and hypercars,” he explains. “The Germans – why do we think of them as quite stiff upper-lipped and all about the engineering, and things must last and [demonstrate] reliability? And why are the French very much socialist still? They don’t like bling, they don’t like sporty cars. They’d rather have a great case of wine than a fantastic car sitting on the drive. “You can find out a lot about the place and the people by the cars they drive – and how they drive.” The series arrives after Jeremy Clarkson, James May and Richard Hammond’s The Grand Tour debut on Amazon and a second series of the revamped Top Gear, with Matt Le Blanc promoted to hosting duties following the departure of Chris Evans. Paul insists he’s not disappointed he wasn’t part of the new Top Gear line-up. “This programme was already in the making so it was difficult for me to get involved anyway. So, no, that was never a choice. “I would rather do something different anyway, so I was happy carrying on with the Continental Road Trip.” Besides, he’s keeping busy with The Great British Bake Off, having decided to move with the programme to Channel 4, despite former BBC colleagues Mary Berry, Sue Perkins and Mel Giedroyc standing down. He claims he was unaware of the furore that ensued. “I’ve been told by the press that it happened, so it must be true,” says Paul, who’s still in touch with his

‘It was the best ﬁlming I’ve ever done’

Paul with his old Bake Oﬀ colleagues – Mel, Sue and Mary

former judging partner Mary Berry. “Why wouldn’t I be? There’s no reason for it [their friendship] to stop.” He’s earned a reputation for being tough in the Bake Off tent, but that’s something he attributes to the programme-makers. “It’s called editing,” he laughs. “I’m very easy-going, quite chilled. But at the end of the day if something’s wrong then I have to point it out because that’s my job. But tough, really? I judge mufﬁns. How the hell is that tough?” And in Continental Road Trip, he believes “people see the real me”. “The laughing, the crying with laughter on many occasions, which I just don’t do on other shows. “I felt more relaxed doing it. It was the best ﬁlming I’ve ever done. It’s such a giggle.”
