It’s no journalistic cliché to say this city has gone marathon crazy. We started noticing this about six months ago, when hitherto sound of mind friends started buying trainers, drinking halfs and replying to an innocent “alright?” with cryptic phrases like “yeah, not bad actually, 14 miles this morning and there was an incline”.

Naturally we assumed the collective enthusiasm for running 26 miles on a Sunday morning would wane as quickly as Mark’s in Peepshow (‘Hey! Wow, I’m actually good at this. Maybe I’m a natural – yeah, I’m a jogger!

Of course, there had to be a sport for me, I just never realised. Legs like two great steam locomotives, pumping away, I’m unstoppable...

Jesus, is that a stitch? Oh, I think I’m gonna puke, I’m literally going to die...” etc etc etc).

But it didn’t. And this weekend 12,000 of you will be running Brighton’s first ever marathon – two of our own columnists, The Landlady and Marathon Mary, included. You can read the latter’s final pre-marathon column in this week’s Sport. Mmm, gammy toenails.

Continuing the sporty theme, we’re giving away tickets to the London golf and tennis shows, and £250 worth of clobber from outdoor clothing store Musto.

For those of you who’d rather eat your own gammy toenail than do sport, or even watch people do sport, we also have interviews with Boy George, who we’re quite sure would never be seen dead in a pair of Nikes, and sketch group Idiots Of Ants. Plus you can find out about the local stage school that supplied the latest Nanny McPhee film with one of its child stars. Do put your daughter on the stage, basically.

Latest diary Tim Richardson snaps Mind’s celebrity-stocked store, City College celebrations and a Kick-Ass party

Educated guests City College held a champagne reception and gala dinner on 30 March to celebrate the launch of their new Strategic Plan: Inspiring Learners, Creating Opportunities and Changing Lives. (Read more in Councillor Mary Mears’ column on p 6.)

Clamour for celebrity clobber Jackets from Norman Cook and model Daisy Lowe were among the items up for grabs when mental health charity Mind's St James’ Street shop opened following a refurb on 31 March. It launched with a spectacular fashion show showcasing original catwalk creations designed by fashion students from the University of Creative Arts (UCA) using items donated to Mind. Other celebrity donors include Brit Award-winning singer Florence Welch and TV queen Fern Britton, who gave up “fiendishly painful but gorgeous” Mulberry shoes.

Parade calls for pooch rights, Sustainability Conference arrives, benefit cheat caught and police warn against walking alone at night

M

ore than 30 banner-waving dog-lovers and their pets marched on Brighton seafront to support canine rights in the city.

The ‘Doggy Easter Parade’ was organised by Metrodeco tea shop in a bid to persuade other businesses to adopt a more welcoming attitude to the four-legged pets.

Maggie Morgan, who co-owns the shop in Upper St James’s Street, said: “We have been saying for a long time that the city needs to relax its attitude to having dogs in cafés, bars and in public places.

“A more dog-friendly city would be good for tourism at a time when we are recovering from recession. And it would be fairer on the vast majority of dogs-owners who are respectful of others and whose pets are perfectly well-behaved.”

Dogs are fun but, not their fault, they do foul. This could easily divide the population of Brighton and Hove – is this a tail of two cities? Email us your thoughts (and puns).

There’s a more serious subject to watch out for on April 15-16 when Brighton and Hove’s Sustainability Conference explores the marine and coastal implications of climate change.

No time for heads in the sand – projection maps have the sea flooding right through the city if nothing is done.

The conference, organised by the city council and the University of Brighton and staged at the university’s Cockcroft building in

Lewes Road, will discuss the first wind farm planned for the sea off the city coast, and the impact of higher sea levels and coastal erosion.

There was a sad indictment on the safety of our city streets when police issued a warning not to walk alone at night. Sad yes, but the advice is sensible.

It followed an attack on a man in his 20s by two men in Grove Street, barely a stone’s throw from the city’s main police station.The victim was punched to the ground and robbed of his wallet by two cowardly men.

This is not the first of its kind – a young student was similarly robbed recently near Hove rail station. Another young victim of this sort of crime told Latest 7: “It never really leaves you – I’m still getting flash backs”.

Det Sgt Chris Sherwell appealed for witnesses and added: “Don’t walk home alone.”

Spring blew in with gusty gales – forcing promenaders to seek shelter behind their umbrellas (pictured) – but the city is determined to celebrate.

Three new leaflets have been issued by the council giving timetables for “Breeze” buses to

ast week I attended a fantastic dinner event at City College which showcased some of the best young talent in Brighton and Hove. The event was put on to launch their new Strategic Plan, and in between the dinner courses students past and present put on fashion shows, beauty therapy displays, music and other activities which showed off their skills.

For me, it was really inspiring to see such creative talent coming together. The sort of

Lastly, a benefit cheat who failed to declare an inheritance of over £160,000 has been give a suspended prison sentence.

The woman was also ordered to do 150 hours unpaid work after admitting two charges of benefit fraud at a previous hearing and fraudulently claiming £13,113.75 income support, £13,400.58 housing benefit and £4,082.57 council tax benefit.

The court heard that she was a joint beneficiary of an inheritance that totalled more than £160,000 from the sale of her grandmother’s house.

Meanwhile an NHS worker was prosecuted for fraudulently claiming more than £8,300 in benefits and another benefit cheat who failed to tell the council about a second home in Wales has been found guilty of fraud.

Councillor Ayas Fallon-Khan, Cabinet Member for Central Services, provided the second stern warning of the week: “The message for anyone thinking of stealing benefits from taxpayers is clear – we will track you down.”

Should Brighton and Hove be a more dog-friendly city?

comment@thelatest.co.uk follow me on twitter

vocational training that City College provides is incredibly important to the continued prosperity of our city, particularly for the many young people who have been badly hit by the recession. City College have been so successful in this regard, partly at least because they work very closely with businesses in Brighton and Hove in order meet their training and skills needs.

A very good example of this approach is the new housing repairs and maintenance contract which we have just let for our council housing stock. As part of this contract we insisted that local apprentices were taken on in areas such as carpentry and plumbing and these young people will be carrying out their studies at City College. Such partnerships, I believe, are vital if we are to develop a workforce

with the skills necessary to meet the tough challenges ahead.

Whilst we are on the subject of challenges, this Sunday (18 April) is of course the first ever Brighton Marathon which I am looking forward to hugely. Whilst, sadly, I am not going to be actually running, I shall be out and about on the course offering my encouragement to the 12,000 runners. I hope that residents will enjoy the many street parties that will be taking place along the route.

It will also be a very important fundraising event with a potential £3 million being raised for charity – £1 million of which will go to local organisations. It promises to be a day to remember for everyone and will hopefully be the first of many!

Snap Shots Photographer Diana Frangi captures the faces and places that define our city. This week: playwright Tim Crouch

“

So far this year, I’ve been away nine weeks out of a possible 12 – a six week run of An Oak Tree in LA, performances in Japan and Massachusetts. The travel is only bearable because of the coming home. I’m a south coast boy – born in Bognor Regis, now living in Hanover. I need steep shingle beaches and salt air and the cry of seagulls – and my family.

Other than at the desk where I write, work and home rarely mix. This year that changes – with My Arm at The Basement, I, Malvolio in the Festival and a visit to Brighton planned in the autumn of my Royal Court play, The Author.

This year I will be able to walk to work

”

Tim Crouch is a Brighton playwright and performer whose work tours nationally and internationally. His first play, My Arm, never before publicly performed in Brighton, plays at The Basement from 16-17 April. His Brighton Festival commission, I, Malvolio, has a world premiere at the Pavilion Theatre on 7 May, before traveling to London and Singapore. For more info visit www.newsfromnowhere.net

Celebcity with Jo Brooks Katie Price gets a roasting from OAP and Norman Cook unveils kooky new concept album

Katie’s carpark row

I

t has been quite a dramatic week for Katie Price – now Mrs Reid. Not only has she had to contend with a barrage of ‘Marriage in crisis’ tabloid headlines but also being verbally abused by an OAP in Brighton.

Over the Easter weekend, what set out to be a happy family shopping trip in Brighton’s Goldstone Retail Park turned out to be a complete nightmare for the glamour girl.

Katie, who had son Harvey in the car, parked in a disabled parking bay.

Harvey, who was with his brother Junior, four, and sister Princess, two, is severely disabled. He is partially blind with a disorder called septo-optic dysplasia, and suffers other illnesses caused by a hormone deficiency.

Katie parking in this bay seemed to upset a male shopper who apparently branded her a ‘disgrace’. According to onlookers Katie was clearly upset and visibly shaken by the man’s abusive comments.

After the incident Katie said, “My son Harvey heard me being abused by this man who thought that just because of who I am I was trying to be some kind of prima-donna by parking where I did.

“I have spoken with my lawyers about the incident. If anyone does anything that upsets my children, I don’t care who it is but I am always going to protect them.”

Harvey, Katie’s son from her previous relationship with footballer Dwight Yorke, was born with a rare condition affecting the optic nerve, which means he is partially blind. He also requires around-the-clock care.

Katie’s spokesman said last week, “When she is wrongly criticised, nastily and verbally attacked and abused in front of her children, who were plainly distressed by this man’s behaviour, then she naturally reacted in a way any mother would.”

NORMAN’S NEW PROJECT Fatboy Slim, aka Norman Cook, is to make an album about the former Filipino first lady Imelda Marcos. No, this is not a wind up! Norm is joining forces with old mate and collaborator David Byrne, former frontman of the completely brilliant Talking Heads (one of my all time favourite bands).

Incidentally, I was round at Norman’s a couple of years ago and Zoe told me that David stayed at their Hove mansion for a while and she still had to pinch herself every morning that David Byrne was making a cup of tea in her kitchen!

Anyway, the album will feature 22 tracks with lots of guest appearances including singer-songwriter Tori SPOTTED! Amos – set your Amazon alarms kids.

NICK DOES HIS BIT FOR HAITI

Owen re-opening the ever popular Volks Railway on the that seafront. It’s always a sign summer is nearly here – the old train rattling up and down the front!

Make sure you pick up a copy of current charity single ‘I Put A Spell OnYou’. Not only do all the profits of the Shane MacGowan-organised record go to help charities in Haiti, but it features Hove’s own Nick Cave (alongside Johnny Depp on slide guitar, Chrissie Hynde, The Clash’s Mick Jones, The Sex Pistols’ Glen Matlock, and Primal Scream’s Bobby Gillespie). The Screamin' Jay Hawkins track is an old favourite with Nick, who used to perform the song with his former band, The Birthday Party.

“M

and a couple of pints, it’s zero hour.

It is usually at this point I suddenly find that I’m completely unable to remember any of the things we went over in rehearsal, and that the technical script has become a complete enigma to me. The next two hours are a bit hairy, as I forget cues, or bring them in at the wrong time and in the wrong order; interrupt moving speeches with rogue sound effects; bring the lights down before the end of a scene, or leave the stage plunged in darkness when a new one has begun; and generally ruin the whole thing for everybody. But then, I tend to reflect that it doesn’t matter, as it makes them look unprofessional, not me.

It’s very important to show solidarity in this business, so I always make a point of going backstage after the show and saying how well I thought it went. The cast and director are usually seething with anger at my sabotaging their show, especially when they’ve had producers or reviewers in, but they’re always much too polite to say anything.

Then the real work of the day begins, as I hit the bar, and spend the next four hours trying to chat up the attractive usher I’ve had my eye on all year. After striking out again it’s off for a consolatory Gut Buster and then bed, where I sleep the sleep of one who knows he is indispensible."

y average working day starts at about 11.30am, when I wake up, have a pee, and then go back to bed for another hour. At about 1pm I generally remember that I’m supposed to be working that day so I get dressed. In my job it’s important to dress in a way that gives people confidence in your abilities and I’ve been known to spend upwards of half an hour agonising whether to wear my Aerosmith T-shirt or my Saxon one. Eventually I haul my sorry arse into the theatre after stopping off at the caff for my usual breakfast. It’s important to get good nutrition to keep you going through the day.

When I get to the theatre, often the company will have been waiting for me for an hour or so and sometimes people can be a tad annoyed, so I pretend that I didn’t get the call out until an hour ago and somehow try to make out that it’s their fault I’m late.

Once I’m there, first thing I do is work out the lighting. I’m always careful to ask the director precisely how he wants the stage lit. Then I ignore what he’s said, and spend an hour fiddling around with a screwdriver up a ladder. When we’ve finally rehearsed the technical cues so thoroughly that there isn’t even the slightest chance of a mishap, we are ready.

BARDSLEY’S

Astral Angi

Astral’s predictions for a fuller Festival

HARIES {Mar 21–Apr 20}

HCANCER {June 22–July 22}

HLIBRA {Sep 23–Oct 22}

HCAPRICORN {Dec 21–Jan 19}

Aries should embrace Brighton Festival with an open mind. Your normal tenet of ‘I know what I like when I see it’ is simply not good enough and why you see nothing.

Cancer may be reluctant to show enthusiasm for live arts. They may be reluctant to show enthusiasm full stop!

Open your heart, take in something new and enlightening. Brian Eno perhaps?

Librans may be tempted to try and see everything, a brave ambition.

I wish I had that much stamina, Libra.

Whatever you do, pace yourself and reserve your energies.

Capricorn is a born heckler so a few words of advice: heckling is acceptable at comedians – never at opera, theatre, ballet, performance art. It is however acceptable at poetry readings.

HTAURUS {Apr 21–May 21}

HLEO {July 23–Aug 22}

HSCORPIO {Oct 23–Nov 21}

HAQUARIUS {Jan 20–Feb 19}

Taureans should look more at the programme of outdoor events, wide spaces, site-specific productions and perhaps the smaller exhibitions and in particular ceramics.

Leo will take the festival in its stride, and will be equally strident in its opinions. Remember please, not everyone wants to hear that opinion as the curtain falls.

Scorpios can be the harshest critics, liking nothing more than the sound of their own voice. Try to remember that the rest of us do not give a fig what you think and button up.

Aquarians may not be available to see anything in the Festival as most of them will be involved in one way or another with some signed, sub-aqua, buddhist reading of Shakespeare – with dance.

HGEMINI {May 22–June 21}

HVIRGO {Aug 23–Sep 22}

HSAGITTARIUS {Nov 22–Dec 20}

HPISCES {Feb 20–Mar 20}

Geminis will enjoy sharing experiences at the festival but remember, the experience you are sharing is the event and not each other. For that get a room.

Virgo should check the programme fully to find things that are not suitable fro children under a certain age and contain adult material.

That should cut down the tutting.

Sagi may well be best advised to stay at home and simply read the exhaustive coverage of Brighton Festival in Latest 7. No, not really, get out there and join in the fun for once.

Pisces can see what they like and will love it all. Counter all that high art with a grounding festival of fish and chips with Roy and Muriel, artists in their own right, at Bardlsey’s.

011_LS470_interview_011_LS466_interview 07/04/2010 12:13 Page 1

L7 INTERVIEW 11 Do you think that most celebrities think that they are infallible?

Yes, I suppose when you believe that you’re hot property you may think that. You’re selling loads of records and getting loads of accolades, so yes, you start to think you’re unstoppable. I recently met Lady Gaga and I hadn’t been around that kind of circus for a long time, and it was quite interesting to be on the outside looking in.

Did you get on with her?

Yes, she was lovely but I met her briefly. The security was a rigmarole.

Was it odd, asking to meet her?

Oh no, it was her who wanted to meet me, I don’t do that sort of thing! I did want to get an autograph for my niece, and Phillip Treacy makes her outfits as well as my hats, so I was able to do that.

That’s refreshingly ordinary George.

Gaga looked at me like I was mad.

GOOD BOY, BAD BOY

Boy George talks about his voice, his celebrity and his career to Andrew Kay

Hi George, are you looking forward to playing Brighton?

Yes, I’m looking forward to touring generally; I enjoy it much more these days.

Are you enjoying getting back to singing?

Yes, I’ve always sung, but I haven’t put a record out in the usual way for quite a while so it’s all very exciting.

Do you have a large band?

Yes, it’s not a PA, I’ve had the same band for roughly 15 years now.

Are you playing only new material or will you be covering your old hits?

I will be doing everything, a real mixed bag of stuff and always adding stuff as we go along. I do all the big Culture Club tracks – well, not all of them, but most of them. I do a lot of stuff from my solo career and a few jazz things.

Do you enjoy Culture Club material?

Yes, I enjoy doing the ones that I enjoy doing.

Which ones don’t you enjoy doing?

Well, when you see me, the ones I’m doing are the ones I love [laughter]. I do ‘Do You Really Want To Hurt Me?’, I do ‘Karma’, I do ‘Everything I Own’, I do a few of them.

How do you feel about the press these days? They seem to love you and then hate you in turn...

You never know what they are going to write. You think things have gone well, and then you read it and think oh my God. I don’t like analytical interviews; I like questions and answers. Ask me something and here’s my answer.

The high brow ones want to take you apart and analyse you. ‘The man behind Boy George’ kind of thing. I’m very up front. If I want to talk about something I will. I don’t vet questions like some big stars. It could drive you crazy.

You’ve done a lot of DJing over the years. Will you still do that?

Yes, it’s my other job.

Do you still enjoy the dressing up?

You design a lot of it yourself?

Yes, I do. I’m very thrifty when it comes to my wardrobe. I go to a lot of charity shops and customize things; that way you avoid wearing what other people are wearing.

Fashion is all about having the latest handbag, and that’s not me.

You say that over the years you have changed, but you’ve always appeared to accept being fallible.

That’s just being human. That’s what most people do, isn’t it?

Tell me more about the voice...

Well its an older voice, nearly 50, jazzier, but better in some ways.

I like the single ‘Amazing Grace’ and the girl who sings on it...

Yes, she’s amazing. I had one girl in mind – a real famous diva – but I was warned off by everyone. Anna, though, is amazing. We haven’t met; I had to send the track to Portugal. I hated that, but I can’t travel at the moment.

You’ve done some great collaborations...

Yes, I have been lucky.

Are you dressing up on the tour?

Yes, I’ve got costumes, but not as many as Lady Gaga. I’ve been that woman – so I understand. People say ‘oh, you’re dressing like Gaga’, but she’s dressing like me.

Is that upsetting?

No, it’s funny. People have very short memories.

And how is life, are you happy?

Yes, very happy, probably the best I have been in a long time. I have grown up a lot in the last few years.

I can say that now without cringing.

I like it.

Has your audience grown too?

I couldn’t describe it, I get all sorts, old and young, 70s, 80s, kids...

Did people take a long time to see the talent behind the Boy George look?

I think some people still don’t see the talent.

Do you care?

No, I don’t think I do. People who love me don’t judge me.

Nice having two jobs?

Yes, DJing was an accident, but a happy accident and good for me, keeping me busy. I could deejay all the time, but I don’t.

Is there a big difference between ‘Boy George’ and George O’Dowd?

Probably not now. There was at the height of everything, and things were very different. People start treating you differently at the height of your career. And people treat me differently when I am not dressed up to when I am. You become that thing when you have the hat and the makeup on. Without, you’re less obvious.

to take it personally, even though it does get very personal.

Did you adopt a policy of putting your hands up and saying ‘fair cop, you got me’?

Not facing up to things doesn’t make things better.

Have the experiences made you a better person?

My appetite for drama is greatly diminished. I guess I have.

So you’re not saying you’ll never be a bad boy again?

No; well yes, I am saying that.

“I’ve got costumes, but not as many as Lady Gaga. I’ve been that woman – so I understand” I did ask if there were any taboo subjects and I was told no...

Well yes, if I don’t want to answer a question I will say I don’t want to answer that. The media is very much a part of what I do. I have learnt not

I won’t tell! [laughter] It’s taken me a long time to realise that my life is blessed. I try to be present in my life now.

Do you get any privacy?

Loads, I just put my hood up.

cakes I have tasted in some time – or had I? Apparently not. Made in their own kitchen, it was about as healthy as a cake can get; I didn’t care – it tasted great.

Around me people were tucking into great looking freshly prepared paninis, a heart chilli and baked potatoes. I couldn’t resist a berry smoothie which was scarily purple but also very light. And now that the sun has come out they are making fresh frozen yoghurt each day with a variety of toppings.

For serious body builders they also offer power smoothies using healthy supplements. For me I would be happy with a salad and a berry smoothie here any day, and a damn good coffee too.

K, I know, no-one is going to believe me when I say I went out looking for healthy food.

And if I am honest I was apprehensive, as over the years I have been served some pretty dismal stuff under the banner of ‘healthy’.

Love Fit Café is right at the heart of the Lanes and the heart theme carries through with their logo and also their concern for healthy food.

People use the phrase ‘eat your heart out’ and some of us are doing that – quite literally – with an unbalanced diet and too many saturated fats.

Cutting down is one option, but all too often that can mean cutting down on flavour. That was not going to work for business partners Steve and Jason of Love Fit Café. Keen fitness fans and body builders, they both knew that they wanted healthy food that was also tasty and satisfying. Cutting down on the wrong kind of fats, refined sugars and salt was obvious, but their challenge was to make it tasty.

Their menu does exactly that, and most of it is prepared fresh in their own kitchens daily. I ate a very good chicken caesar salad that was tasty and filling. I then, of course, ruined it by eating a slice of one of the best

ANDREW KAY’S FOOD & DRINK 15

Food & Drink Andrew Kay samples the traditional Indian dishes at Eastern Eye

Eye time A

creature of habit, that’s what I am, and my biggest habit right now is Eastern Eye on London Road. I watched what was a Pizza Hut turn into a smart new Indian restaurant with anticipation. I longed for somewhere new to have lunch, and to be perfectly honest, I am not a fan of sandwiches.

Eastern Eye opened, and I was drawn in by the promise of dosas. They were good, but what was even better was their lunchtime buffet. Sadly it didn’t last, but happily in its place came the set lunch menu starting at under £5. Now, in the local supermarket £5 buys a sandwich, an apple and a packet of crisps, and that’s if you go in with blinkers on and resist the other temptations. No, Eastern Eye was better value and better food too.

I became a regular and admit to going twice most weeks.

Then, one morning, I received an email from a charming doctor, wanting to know if I had discovered a fabulous new Indian Restaurant in London Road. Of course I had: it was Eastern Eye. Immediately I was filled with guilt. I had been eating there for months and not bothered to spread the word. The truth is, I had been having the set lunch menu and, although delicious, it had not occurred to me that it should get a review. I was also remiss in not coming back for dinner, but that is, in part, because it is right next door to my office, and you know how it is...

“A revelation: a traditional Indian restaurant that is looking at its roots, its sourcing, and making brilliant Indian regional food” I agreed to meet the doctor here as he wanted to guide me through some of the more unusual dishes on the menu. I loved the idea, who wouldn’t? An expert, from India, happy to share his knowledge. We met, and we got on from the word go, with an equal passion for good cooking. I was fascinated by his knowledge of Indian regional cuisine; he leaves me at the starting gate, but I think he too was impressed by even my cursory knowledge.

The chef is a marvel and an expert in a wide range of regional dishes. The doctor chose the food, and we were joined by the owner. As with all countries to whom hospitality comes easily, the food started to arrive quickly.

Such delights; fabulous, and I mean fabulous chicken tikka – the sweetest and most tender I have ever tasted, and succulent too, simply oozing juices.

There were strips of paneer fried in a spicy batter and served with tamarind. I love paneer and tamarind equally and had already rooted this item on my own from the menu one greedy lunchtime.

Goujons of white fish did that marvelous thing of being devilishly spicy but retaining their flavour. And so it went on, one delight after another, with the doctor delighting in sharing every morsel.

The chef then brought out a biriani. Now biriani can be a dog of a dish. I am convinced that in some places it is merely leftovers stirred up. This was far from that: a copper dish filled with steaming rice and meat that was so fragrant. It was, in fact, the fragrant spicing that had led the doctor here. A colleague had ordered a takeaway and the aroma forced him to call and ask of the chef’s provenance. He had guessed his origins correctly and says that this biriani is the best he has had outside of Hyderabad. This is praise indeed.

We have met several times now, and it is always a feast of delights.

On one occasion he asked me what my favorite Indian dish is. Well, after tandoor-cooked lobster on a Goan beach, it is dahi Verde. He went to the kitchen and the chef prepared it for me, despite it not being on the menu.

He also made me a portion to take home, and that night I sat quietly savoring every last morsel. It’s a simple dish of a lentil-based doughnut served in a bowl of cool but spiced yoghurt. The chef even makes the yoghurt and the paneer.

And the dosas, well the dosas are superb, and a meal in themselves at lunchtime. I have even had dessert here too, brilliant carrot sweets and pistachio kulfi, and in a sensible taster portion. If I lived near an Indian sweet shop I would have no teeth.

Eastern Eye is a revelation: a traditional Indian restaurant that is looking at its roots, its sourcing, and making brilliant Indian regional food at very modest prices.

It is worth going out of your way to eat at Eastern Eye, and being just that bit out of the city centre, parking is easier too.

HEALTH&BEAUTY

DOUBLE ACTS ACTING UP From volume builders to de-frizzers, Zara Baker finds hair duos to turn heads

VOLUME: PHILIP KINGSLEY BODY BUILDING SHAMPOO & CONDITIONER Shampoo £5.50 75ml; £14 250ml; conditioner £7 75ml; £17 250ml, from www.philipkingsley.com ‘Pump Up The Volume’ should be the signature song of this great double act. Hair reaches new-found heights without increasing the weight.

Perfect for: fine, limp flyaway hair.

Celebrity double: Cameron Diaz at this year’s Oscars.

STRENGTHENING: KERASTASE RESISTANCE SHAMPOO & CIMENT THERMIQUE HEAT-ACTIVATED RECONSTRUCTOR MILK £13.70 (shampoo) & £17.20 (conditioner) available from selected salons. See the salon finder at www.kerastase.co.uk For tired locks that have been blasted with a hairdryer and run over with straightening irons a few too many times. Hair is replenished and strengthened, no matter how much heat you put it under. A keeper.

Perfect for: weak, frazzled hair.

Celebrity double: Jennifer Anniston, whose hair looks as young as during her first outing in Friends.

COLOUR CARE: FUDGE COLOUR

LOCK SHAMPOO AND CONDITIONER £9.95, available from selected salons. 01282 683100 for stockists A salon-based brand, this is not one you normally see in your local pharmacy. Fudge products have a deliciously fruity fragrance and leave the hair hydrated and fresh.

Proteins to lock in colour mean more time between dyes.

Perfect for: coloured hair Celebrity double: Kelly Osbourne HIGH SHINE: TRESEMMÉ SMOOTH

VITAMIN H & ALMOND SALON SILK SHAMPOO AND CONDITIONER Available from all good chemists, £4.29 each The salon look at home that’s affordable, so the advert goes.

This works wonders on frizzy hair, leaving it smoother, feeling squeaky clean and with enviable shine. It’s great value, too – the huge bottles will mean a long time before shopping for your next shampoo.

Perfect for: dull, lackluster locks.

Celebrity double: Dannii Minogue SMOOTHING: JOICO SILK RESULT SMOOTHING SHAMPOO & CONDITIONER £11.95 each, available from selected salons.

01282 683100 for stockists.

OK, this is similar to the Tresemme but what I love about this smoothing duo is how silky soft and manageable it leaves your hair. And there’s a choice, too: choose between fine/normal and thick/coarse. Silk amino acids leave hair smooth and soft to the touch, working wonders on frizzy locks.

Perfect for: dry, frizz-prone hair.

Celebrity double: Cougar Town’s Courteney Cox Arquette.

Students from The Theatre Workshop are causing a stir on stage and screen

T

he Theatre Workshop is the South Coast’s premier stage school for youngsters aged six to eighteen.

Students are proud to be part of The Theatre Workshop’s success, and the school is committed to creating unrivalled professional training for budding performers March was an incredibly busy month for their students. Most excitingly, one student can be seen playing Celia Gray, a leading role in the feature film Nanny McPhee And The Big Bang, opposite star Emma Thompson.

Other students of The Theatre Workshop include Tracey Beaker Returns’ Carmen and Emmerdale’s Will Wylde. This month, more than 60 students can be seen performing in the professional UK tour of Joseph And The Amazing Technicolour Dreamcoat, and several students will also be performing as part of the Brighton Festival in The Secret Garden.

The annual plan of shows, festivals, exams and workshops at the school evolve from regular three-hour sessions of singing, dancing and acting classes. Extra classes offered to students include GCSE Drama, Screen Acting, Audition Technique, Streetdance, LAMDA and private singing lessons. The highlight of the summer term will be the Oscarettes Awards Night in July at Hove Town Hall, with students getting dressed to impress in prom party-wear, and with mini Oscar’s awarded.

A new workshop session is opening on Friday’s in Brighton due to a high demand for places. This is in addition to the school’s Saturday sessions. They are also offering free trial sessions for aspiring performers. It’s a chance to meet the friendly teachers, make new friends and learn how to perform with the professionals.

L7 WHAT’S ON Stage

LIFE’S A DRAG

STAGE 17

> Tuesday 13 to Monday 19 April> Acts like Dave Lynne and Maisie Trollete could belt out a great song and tell a good gag and drag was revitalised.

So where does Miss Hope Springs spring from? Well, in part from all of these, but also from the great traditions of cabaret, torch singers and alternative comedy. Ty Jeffries is Hope – she is his own special creation, but not one simply born of a desire to slap on the drag. Classically trained at the Purcell School of Music, Ty brings far more to the stage. As the son of stage and screen great Lionel Jeffries, he had an extraordinary childhood, much of it spent in Hollywood. He clearly remembers having dinner with Frank Sinatra and falling asleep in the soup. ‘‘I spent some of my childhood years living in Tinseltown and I’m very influenced by the ‘golden age’ of

Trousers suit

Andrew Kay on Miss Hope Springs and the role of drag in entertainment

M

an dressed as woman – as art, or as entertainment – is nothing new. Shakespeare’s first Juliet was undoubtedly a pretty boy and female roles were played in British theatre by males until the Restoration in 1660. That may sem a rather dry and academic way to introduce Miss Hope Springs but stay with me.

As a 21 year old I was introduced to the world of drag, not as peformer, but as audience. Back in the late ’70s the form was almost universally pubbased and consisted of blokes in sparkly gowns and big wigs lipsyncing to ballads and torch songs.

Older gay friends told me about earlier drag, where the content was

gag and not music-based, and I was lucky enough to see one of the very last performances by Mrs Shufflewick. Before that, female impersonation had been comedy song based, as had male impersonation; and throughout, the humour had been grounded in sexual ambiguity. Homosexuality was illegal but everyone knew it was ‘going on’.

There was, of course, the popular female impersonator Danny la Rue, who had somehow captured the mass market with his glamorous diva and cheeky repartee – and Danny could sing, too.

In the 1980s expectations were raised and, in the south of England at least, lip-syncing went out of fashion.

Hollywood,” he says. “The stars of the time, their stories, their sexual ambiguity and their mystique fascinate me. This is what I am drawn to, and I tend to revisit these themes in my songwriting, stage performances, photography and videos.” In fact, Ty’s songs are so well crafted that it is hard not to believe they are classics, witty period pieces by the likes of Cole Porter.

In Miss Hope Springs at The Brunswick, Ty’s new lounge style cabaret show, Hope will swoop from The Ritz to the pits with jawdroppingly candid comment, bittersweet torch songs and show stopping belters. Prepare to see drag dragged into the 21st century.

T

he perfect match to Ty Jeffries’ show is a new collaborative work by writer and director Neil Bartlett and Jessica Walker, The Girl I Left Behind Me. Using a few items of male attire, a piano and a microphone, mezzo-soprano Walker will conjure up a world of female to male cross-dressing from the strutting music hall acts of the Victorians to the ambiguous boy heroes of Mozart and Strauss.

The songs, performed to pared down piano arrangements, will be staged with Bartlett’s usual stylish panache. They promise a witty evening that is flirtatious and provactive and ask the question – what is it that makes a woman in trousers so appealing?

SUGAR&SPICE

Sweet Sweet Lies’ Dominic Von Trapp tells us what boys are really made of...

I

t’s always heartening to see a Brighton band break out of the confines of their local environment, often after plenty of toiling, a stream of people telling you you’re great, and a musical environment that often goes against you.

“The low point for us was when we felt everything was still in the grip of the skinny indie jeans brigade. The sort of stuff we were doing just wasn’t get any press attention,” says Domonic Von Trapp, lead singer of Sweet Sweet Lies, a fixture on the Brighton scene for the last three years. “But the attention that bands like Mumford and Sons are getting was a gift to us. There are other bands like Fleet Foxes and Stornaway, that fit into this loose acoustic style that is suddenly becoming favoured.”

While Sweet Sweet Lies don’t in any way sound like Mumford or Fleet, “...people are prepared to give this stuff a go; the charts are filled with all sorts of different music at the moment.”

Along with Dominic the band’s feature fellow songwriter and guitarist Michael Hayes, Ken Box (piano), Matt Sparkes (bass), Toby Horton (drums) and Kris Jones (trumpet). It all began in Brighton in 2007, when Dominic and Michael found themselves both at Sussex University. The pair musically bonded over their shared love of The Beatles, Dylan, Leonard Cohen and The Magnetic Fields (Dominic’s favourite band). But, despite a flirtation with a local label and some general industry interest, things didn’t really take off until they went to record at Brighton Electric on the

Lewes Road. “Russell Keffert (who has engineered and produced for bands like Blur and Larrikin Love), saw our potential and we worked very well together. He introduced us to Supervision (who count Kaiser Chiefs amongst their roster).”

With more resources at their disposal, the band have recorded an album, are about to set off on a 20 date tour and will see one of their signature songs, ‘Overrated Girlfriend’, released as a single on 19 April. “It’s based on feelings of inadequacy, about how you rate someone too highly at the beginning of a relationship. Men do that a lot... put girls on a pedestal, and then things come crashing down” As well as the tough lyricism within the song, it’s also a perfect example of the sound that they have become known for, a sweet yet sour delectation. “We’ve always blended soft sounds with hard sounds – a kiss with a bite. It’s often gentle and then we throw in an expletive, to knock you off balance!”

Dominic’s strong and noir-cabaretesque voice is the tool that brings it all together though. “My dad used to play a lot of Motown, and I liked those big male voices. There’s something beautiful and yet still masculine about that sound.”

The bands name sums it all up. “It’s a paradox, nice and nasty, a reflection of our music.”

BRIGHTON MARATHON

BRAG

The first ever Brighton Marathon takes place this Sunday on 18 April, when 12,000 people will run the route from Preston Park, around the city and along the coast to Maderia Drive. The course has been designed to be generally fast and reasonably flat, taking in the best of the city centre and fabulous stretches of coastal road, and including panoramic views of the South Downs and the English Channel. The finish is in Madeira Drive, just east of Brighton Pier. The route will be free of traffic, so if you are thinking of driving into Brighton bear |in mind that it will be exceptionally busy and the seafront roads will be closed to traffic. However, the restaurants on the seafront will all be open, doing great business, and providing some fantastic spectator spots for the final mile of the Marathon along the seafront.

(Read about our running columnist Marathon Mary’s final preparations for the event in Sport on p 24.)

Brighton Marathon, Sunday 18 April, starts 9am Preston Park

Brighton Rock Artists Group (BRAG) evolved from a group of artists who attended a workshop with screenprinting legend Chuck Sperry. The silkscreen music poster tradition still thrives in the USA today and is illustrative of the symbiotic relationship between music and poster art. Here in Brighton, BRAG hope to reinstate the tradition of handcrafted, collectable, promotional works of art.

Bringing punk roller derby together with 21st century feminism – go Drew Barrymore! Actually, the star of this is Juno’s Ellen Page, Drew’s only the director and acting support. Ellen plays Bliss, a young girl from a backwater town. Her mother wishes success for her, it’s just that her idea of success is winning the local beauty pageant. Not quite Bliss’s. So when she sneaks off to the big city with her best mate and stumbles across a world of celebrated individuality at the roller derby, it’s not long before she’s trying out for a spot herself in raggle taggle underdog team the Hurl Scouts. Renaming herself Babe Ruthless Bliss soon finds herself up against rivals like Iron Maven (Juliette Lewis) and falling for a boy in a band (Landon Pigg – real name!), making life all the more complicated still. Adventures in the big city. Coo. Showing at Odeon

H

ello. We are comedy sketch group Idiots Of Ants and are coming to Brighton with our first ever touring show. So, we thought we’d tell you a little bit about us and the show by interviewing ourselves!

Andy: What is an Idiots Of Ants show like? Why should I come see you and not just go down the pub?

Elliot: We do fast-paced sketch comedy and pack an hour and 45 minutes with as many jokes as possible. In the middle there’ll be an interval where you’ll have to do your own jokes.

Jim: You’ll see sketches, songs, and lots of audiovisual stuff. We also involve the audience – in a nice way.

Ben: This is the only show where, not only do you get to see cracking sketch comedy, but also – if you play your cards right – dinner, a romantic walk home and, who knows, you might even be invited in for coffee.

Surely that beats the pub?

Jim: OK. So if you’re really that great why haven’t I seen you on the telly?

Andy: You might have done. We were part of E4’s Funny Cut season, on BBC 1’s Comic Relief and BBC3’s The Wall.

Ben: You may have also seen us on the internet with ‘Facebook in real

life’ and ‘Wii Breakfast’ becoming two of the most viewed comedy sketches of all time on YouTube... and the internet’s a bit like the telly, isn’t it?

Elliot: Yeah, but are you actually funny?

Jim: Yes. But don’t take our word for it. We were nominated for the 2009 Edinburgh Comedy Award for best show and have just won the Chortle award for best sketch/character act.

Andy: Why not have a look at the reviews on our website www.idiotsofants.com, and decide for yourselves?

Ben: Yeah, and remember, if you don’t come Andy will find you and eat you!

Andy: I’m an animal!

WILLKOMMEN COLLECTIVE An expanded 11-piece Sons Of Noel And Adrian set the standard for what was probably the biggest Brighton show yet from the Willkommen Collective. As ever, the songs were intelligent and pastoral with ‘Big Bad Bold’ building to an exciting climax.

The interplay between Tom and Jacob underpinned the whole thing, allowing the rest of the band space to soar. The Leisure Society began with album favourite ‘Save It For Someone Who Cares’ and showcased a number of excellent new songs including ‘You Could Keep Me Talking’ and ‘The Hungry Years’. Every song was beautifully crafted and superbly executed. We are lucky to have them.

Corn Exchange, 3 April JJJJJ Steve Clements

BOWLING FOR SOUP The usual energy I know and love from pop-punk band Bowling For Soup was replaced with this chilled acoustic set, but it still managed to rock. Only half the band (Jaret and Erik) were present, which may have disappointed some, but the light sparring between the pair made this part gig, part stand-up as they tore apart the English language. This was Bowling For Soup ‘in your living room’ – like MTV Unplugged, complete with lamps, table and chairs on stage. Stripped back, with a fresh acoustic sound, ‘Belgium’, ‘Girl All The Bad Guys Want’, ‘Summer Of ’69’ and ‘Almost’ went down a treat, while (I’m pretty certain) my yell swayed the vote for ‘When We Die’ as their final song of the night.

Great stuff.

BENT DOUBLE A sell-out Easter Sunday crowd enjoyed a selection of sweet treats at Komedia's ever-popular gayfriendly night. Hosted by the affable Zoe Lyons, it began with some superb musical comedy from Pippa Evans who took to the stage as her alter ego, Loretta May, a crazed US hippy/folk singer armed with an array of anthems for stalkers. Roisin Conaty made an outstanding Bent Double debut with fast-paced modern

GIN PANIC + APOLOGIES, I HAVE NONE + ROOFTOPS + CAUTIONHORSES + THE DEAD BEATS With shelves adorned with anarchist literature and a self-consciously gritty façade, it seems somehow appropriate that this sterling blast of subterranean punk and rock took place in the Cowley Club’s environs.

Obvious highlights included the furious hardcore bark of Brighton/ London shouters The Dead Beats and angular Brightonian art-rockers Cautionhorses, whose stop-start stoner dynamic lent a distinctive jerky counterpoint to the heavier bands’ downtuned grooves. The eclectic line-up provided a decent glimpse of the breadth of quality guitar music bubbling under the occasionally bland indie veneer of Brighton’s music scene.

The Cowley Club, 1 April JJJJJ Nick Aldwinckle

THE NOISE NEXT DOOR Improv comedy troupe The Noise Next Door hosted and headlined a fine evening of comedy, compèred by the loud and lively Sam Pacelli.

Richard Rycroft, Chris Coxon and Tiernan Douieb provided the stand up – the extremely likeable Douieb was the pick of the bunch, although Coxon’s unusual set as the flirty, scat-singing Barry Tuttle was a fun contrast. The Noise Next Door finished with a high-energy, slick performance that was the highlight of the evening. Perhaps they were just a little too slick, their songs structured so tightly they lost some of the flying-by-the-seat-of-yourpants riskiness of improv. Still, they were great fun, not least because they so clearly enjoyed every minute.

STYLE WARRIORS ROBOTS IN DISGUSE Digital 8 April JJJJJ

R

obots In Disguise certainly did not disappoint with their brand of girlie electro fun-punk. Dee Plume and Sue Denim may be accused of style over substance with their matching, straightened-towithin-an-inch-of-its-life hair, and aeronautically-themed outfits. But the substance is there in spades. There are inevitable comparisons to be drawn with other bands in a similar vein – Le Tigre, Peaches and so on – but the Robots definitely hold their own, and the slightly subdued audience soon livened up.

The links with The Mighty Boosh (they appeared in episodes and in live shows) are always going to be picked up on, and now those links are no longer active, it seems the bandwagonjumping music industry have cast the Robots aside.

So, they have a pledge system for making their fourth album, whereby fans can go to their website, pledge money towards the making of the record and

purchase it in advance. Money also goes to The Alzheimers Society. Now that’s what I call Girl Power. And they play their own instruments – take note, Spice Girls.

Support came from local girl duo Dead Dog In Black Bag, a kind of Shampoo for the 21st century, and Scream Club, a hip-hop flavoured electro outfit who looked like they had stepped off the set of an early ‘90s TV show on Nickelodeon. And, in between, DJ Molly Malone kept the energy up with her, as usual, spot-on tunes.

The venue seemed to want to make this gig as unpleasant as possible for the punters, with a distinctly sulphuric smell pervading the room, shockingly poor sound quality (it seemed the equipment was there, but not the people who knew how to operate it) and the bar closing at 10.30pm, barely halfway through the Robots’ set. Perhaps they had something against girls with guitars. But despite all this, it was a thoroughly enjoyable evening.

Marathon Mary gears up for the big day on Sunday

With Victoria Nangle

T

Youth springs eternal

o ice bath or not to ice bath? After a long run, the last thing I want to do is plunge into freezing cold water, especially if the run’s been on a chilly day and I’m already feeling a bit shivery. But endurance athletes like Paula Radcliffe and Eddie Izzard swear by this form of masochism.

I have heard Brighton Marathon runners saying that after the race they intend to wade into the sea. Nice idea, but I’ve been ‘swimming’ in the sea on Christmas Day and lasted all of 45 seconds before I had to be rescued by a friend – if I get in after running 26.2 miles, I’m scared I won’t have the strength to make it back out.

I had a sports massage on Saturday and my therapist queried the idea of using ice to heal muscle soreness, saying tired muscles respond better to heat. I know the theory behind the ice bath is that it reduces inflammation, but I’m still not convinced I’m tough enough to try it.

Even having a sports massage scared me, after reading a post by a runner on a Brighton “The prognosis isn’t Marathon forum at www.runnersworld.co.uk which looking good for my said: “of all the pain I have endured in preparation for this left big toe nail; I just event, the most agonisingly painful thing of all is the sports hope I don’t lose it in massage”. In actual fact, mine race week” wasn’t too excruciating and I got a two-for-one deal so I’ll be back after the race. That type of pain I can endure, but sitting in ice? I don’t think so.

I’ve got two 20-milers under my belt now so it’s probably time to taper. I was determined to run the marathon route on Easter Friday so I knew it well, but my body has other ideas. My right foot is badly blistered and the prognosis isn’t looking good for my left big toe nail; I just hope I don’t lose it in race week. It’s pretty bruised and I think I must have compensated with a lopsided gait on my long run on Saturday morning as I’ve got twinges in my left calf and the top of my left foot. Definitely time to let my body heal a little before letting rip on Sunday.

I was gutted to learn that iPods are banned on race day. Thanks ‘barefoot runner’ Joe Addison for pointing that out – I wouldn’t have wanted to embarrass myself by ignorantly breaking the rules. I know that not having my iPod will make me much faster; I have a self-sabotaging habit of listening to Radio 4 podcasts on long runs, which is not exactly conducive to a personal best, but at least distracts me from the monotony. Now I’ve just got to make sure I have stored up some interesting topics to dip into on the day so I don’t end up deflecting accusatory questions from my alter ego: “why are you doing this to me?” and so on.

Perhaps I can spend the time thinking about how good it will feel when I do finally relax into that hot bath. If there is any ice involved, it will be in a gin and tonic. Good luck to everyone doing the marathon. See you in Preston Park!

hat happens when your youthful-looking star who all the boys and comfy shoe-wearing girls can fancy suddenly looks her age? It’s a difficult quandary when your show focuses on a liberated, strong and independent lady making her own way in the world.

She’s quirky, she’s quippy, she’s got issues with relationships... and now she’s getting crows feet and she’s not the kind of lady to Botox the pain away. This is the problem faced by the Grey’s Anatomy production team.

It’s not the first prosperous drama to face its success lasting longer than its star’s original complexion. Buffy The Vampire Slayer lasyed seven series, seeing Sarah Michelle Geller progress from sparky schoolgirl to world-weary graduate. If you’re going to throw half a dozen apocalypses at a girl, you can’t expect her not to get bags under her eyes. And the networks aren’t so keen on that.

The Grey’s Anatomy people are reacting in a similar way to the Buffy folk, but they’ve only waited for the fourth series to bring in the fresh blood. This new class of feisty kooky ladies have the naivity our actual star seems to have lost due to the humungous number of major plot twists endured at the hands of the very scriptwriters who are now wheeling in the younger, better ‘bot.

Buffy got the ‘potential slayers’ and Meredith Grey – now a fully fledged resident of the hospital that’s been her home for the last couple of years – is getting a half sister who is also a medical student.

Remarkably, Chyler Leigh – who plays new sister Dr Lexie Grey – does bear more than a passing resemblance to Ellen Pompeo, our original Dr Meredith Grey. Nice casting for familial resemblance, but not so generous when you get the close-ups of the

two. Miss Pompeo’s delicate skin no longer passes muster next to that of an early twenty-something.

Other programmes are harsher still. Skins culls its entire babyfaced cast at the end of every series, leaving only a few to carry on continuity with the others cast into the big bad world of special guest appearances on The Bill and Casualty.

Much like Buffy, the core cast of Grey’s Anatomy are intrinsic to the series’ success now, protecting them from sudden death unless a film career beckons more than a steady paycheck (are you ready to take the leap, Katherine Heigl?).

The youngsters have been brought in as fresh faced interns while more familiar characters take on greater authority in their world. Meredith, Cristina, Izzie and Alex are still sitting on the trolley in the back hallway, retreating from barking at their own interns as they take the mantle from Bailey to educate the next lot.

Does this simply give the writers leave to allow the new batch to make the same mistakes the old lot made? Bit lazy that. Or maybe they can all make the same mistakes together. The thing the advertisers never seem to realise is that a few wrinkles doesn’t mean you’ve grown up. Just acquired a few scars.

Grey’s Anatomy series 4 starts on Friday 16 April on Five. follow me on twitter

saturday 17 Britain’s Got Talent ITV1, 8pm The competition that brought us Su-Bo and Diversity is back to gather more hidden gems and unearth a few bits of compost along the way. With a chance to perform at this year’s Royal Variety Performance to play for, and Ant and Dec cheering them on from the sidelines, who can win the judges over?

Frank Skinner’s Opinionated BBC2, 10.10pm Well, we knew that. Ever since he was famously said to have dismissed dating women over 30, his reputation for avoiding keeping his opinion under his hat has been cemented. This new series cashes in on that, having him joined by two other comics to unpick the week’s news. Guests are Miranda Hart and Al Murray.

Film: There Will Be Blood Sky Movies Indie, 3.20pm If you thought you understood the oil business after one season of Dallas, you don’t no nothing.

Daniel Day-Lewis starts off at the end of the 19th century, digging a hole for gold and taking an oil baron’s journey, compromising family, ethics and a great deal of geology. Fascinating story and history.
