Chinese New Year at Rendezvous; Good Energy and Diana Frangi captures Nick Pynn and Stewart Lee

Sunday Feb 2nd, 2014 marked the third day of the Lunar New Year, the most celebrated holiday in China. It was also the evening that the Rendezvous Casino in Brighton Marina chose to celebrate the Chinese New Year.

This year is the year of the horse, one of the favorite animals in the Chinese zodiac, and is closely linked to people’s lives because of its ability to quickly transport people and things.

Nick Pardo, the Venue Director who was dressed in a very macho Chinese fighters jacket for the evening said, “We have many Chinese friends in Brighton and Hove and we were delighted to be part of their Chinese New Year celebrations.”

Good Energy Founder and CEO, Juliet Davenport OBE, said: “Good Energy is a different kind of energy company and Brighton is a different kind of city. Our electricity is made by a growing band of independent generators using the power of British sun, wind and water. We know from our research that Brighton is home to many ethical consumers and we hope that they will enjoy finding out more about Good Energy.”

The campaign, which uses the strapline ‘Switch for Good’ will include outdoor advertising and digital advertising at the train station. http://www.goodenergy.co.uk/switch/ quote.

Stewart Lee pays tribute to his musical collaborator: “I first saw Nick playing with Arthur Brown at Glastonbury in the 20th century sometime. Then again, adding magical touches with tuned wine glasses and bespoke instruments, to a comedy and music set by Boothby Graffoe in the mid noughties. I also saw Nick perform

solo and I was spellbound; his Afterplanesman epic swiftly became one of my favourite albums. For this show, his fans and collaborators celebrate his genius and repay an inspirational debt.”

CIRCUS STREET BIKE HUB

Ticket to ride Love Your Bike Week kicks off at Circus Street Bike Hub with The Spin, bike fixing and lots more for cyclists of all levels

C

aroline Lucas MP formally kicked off Brighton’s first ‘Love Your Bike Week’, starting today – a week of fun and useful bike activities, culminating in The Spin – a free family fun day on Saturday February 22, 12noon–4pm at the old market building in Circus Street, Brighton.

At an alternative Valentine’s Day Brunch in the Community Space inside the old market, Caroline Lucas

MP for Brighton Pavilion, said: “The Circus Street Bike Hub is a great example of the way Brighton and Hove is showing the way on procycling initiatives – I hope very much that it will help inspire more people to get on their bikes in the city.”

The Hub aims to help people get their bikes back in action, offering free maintenance services and organising events to build bike riding confidence, in a partnership

between the charity Groundwork and Cathedral Group, who are the developers behind proposals to regenerate the Circus Street old market area.

During ‘Love Your Bike Week’, Groundwork volunteers will be on hand from Tuesday 18 through Friday 21 February from 11am–3pm for local people to drop in with their bikes and get free help to fix them, or learn to maintain them. Anyone who has an old, unused bike can drop it off there and it will be recycled.

There are also several fun group rides on offer, inviting people to meet at Circus Street and join up with a group to cycle to Shoreham or Saltdean. All details are at www.circusstreetbrighton.com ‘Love Your Bike Week’ culminates in The Spin, an amazing free event on 22 February 12 – 4pm, featuring stunt riders, award-winning performance artists, bike workshops, Dr Bike, the chance to tackle a bike assault course, great food stalls and more in the old market in Circus Street.

Said Martyn Evans, Creative Director of Cathedral Group, “Love Your Bike Week and our free public event on 22 February, The Spin,

05

are going to be great fun at the same time as offering practical help to people to get back on their bikes.

We hope this special week will become a fixture in Brighton’s calendar in the future.

“The Circus Street Bike Hub is a precursor to our ground-breaking cycle-friendly development proposals on the site. We are absolutely committed to encouraging pedal power and will be going one step further, giving free bikes and secure storage to all our new residents as one of many sustainable features to help make Brighton a healthier and cleaner city.” www.circusstreetbrighton.com

Fraudbusters fight to free up homes as reports of unlawful use of council homes surface Frank le Duc reports

A

small team of investigators with new powers is making a modest dent in the council house waiting list and saving money.

FRAUD TEAM

Between 240 and 360 council tenants in Brighton and Hove could be committing fraud if the area is typical.

Each case of tenancy fraud has an average estimated value of £18,000.

The numbers are extrapolated from a report by the Audit Commission, a national watchdog. Locally they are underpinned by a modest but growing number of cases being unearthed by a relatively new Corporate Fraud Team.

Each case also means that someone is using a council house or flat unlawfully while about 18,000 people languish on the waiting list.

So the success of the fraudbusters not only saves a tidy sum for the public purse but makes a modest dent in the lengthy local waiting list.

The team, which works for Brighton and Hove City Council, was given greater powers in the autumn when the Prevention of Social Housing Fraud Act became law. The act makes the unauthorised subletting of a council property a criminal offence, with a

omestic violence is under-reported locally and nationally – but in Brighton & Hove ten incidents a day of domestic abuse are reported to police and council staff.

ten cases successfully since the start of the financial year last April.

This was one more than in the previous financial year when nine homes were reallocated after fraudsters handed back their keys or were evicted.

Councillor Farrow said that with so many people on the waiting list for a place to live and with the team’s success rate, it should have better funding and more staff. He added: “This city’s London by sea and we have the same levels of crime that you see in London.” His comment provoked some disagreement although no one listening to Mr Barnard’s presentation expressed doubts about the value of the fraudbusters’ work.

Councillor Bill Randall, the chairman of the Housing Committee and the Housing Management Consultative Sub-Committee, said last week: “At a rough estimate it costs us about £4.2 million a year at the moment and it deprives tenants of a tenancy. With ten cases this year that’s going to save the council £180,000 – and it’s going to enable us to house people. There is a case for giving you some more resources to step up your efforts.”■

help and advice. In many cases, the perpetrators of violence isolate their victims from family and friends – so providing easily-accessible support services is important.

In partnership with the police and local domestic violence charity RISE, we’ve begun hosting a walk-in surgery at Hove Town Hall on Wednesday mornings – the first of its kind in the city. This is part of the Sussex-wide ‘Talk To Us' campaign encouraging those who need it to access expert information and advice from Sussex Police staff and RISE volunteers.

The surgery offers people a safe space to talk through their

relationships. For example one scheme provides support to primary schoolchildren who have been personally affected by domestic violence or abuse at home. And older teenagers also learn about how to recognise when a relationship is unhealthy or abusive, and where they can go to get help.

We hope that schemes such as these and others that we support will help eradicate the blight that is domestic violence in our city.

concerns, a chance to find out more about the options available to them as well as access to assistance with their housing and financial situation. People can also find out more about their partner's offending history so that they can make informed choices about what happens next.

We are also doing work on preventing domestic violence, including work with the city’s schools to teach children about healthy

Cycling chief advises MPs

B

righton and Hove’s cycling supremo Ian Davey was asked to talk about safety by a House of Commons select committee. Frank le Duc reports A Green councillor was invited to give evidence to MPs last week about cycling safety. Brighton and Hove City Council deputy leader Ian Davey, who leads on transport, told them that there were areas where a strong lead needed to be given by the government. In particular he called for clear ring-fenced funding for sustainable transport measures, focused on walking and cycling.

The government at a national level should run a public safety campaign he said. Responding to a question about “mutual respect” among different road users – drivers, pedestrians and cyclists – he evoked the spirit of the 1970s.

Advertising and campaign slogans four decades ago included “this is the age of the train” and “clunk-click every trip” – the latter from when seatbelts became compulsory for drivers. A road safety campaign from the same era included the advice to “stop, look, listen” – often followed by a line like “when you cross the road use the Green Cross Code”.

He said: “I would love to see a promotional campaign, run nationally, about mutual respect. I

remember some of the public safety adverts that used to be on TV when I was a child and they have stuck with me until now. The benefit of those types of public safety advertising should not be underestimated and I would like to see some of that led from central government.”

Some matters were best dealt with by councils though, he said.

Those matters included enforcement. It should be handed to councils, he said, because the police lacked the resources. “We work very well with the local police,” he said, “but they have their pressures so it is about targeting the response.

“I remember some of the public safety adverts that were on TV when I was a child” “We would always argue that it is not about enforcement. It is about compliance and encouraging compliance. One of the problems in encouraging compliance is when people know that a transgression will not be enforced. That is why it is so important that those powers for moving traffic offences come to local authorities, who are in the best position to be able to enforce them.”

Brighton and Hove has given a lead which the government could encourage, Councillor Davey suggested. He was answering a question about whether councils cooperated when cycle lanes crossed from one area to another and whether cycle lanes had a standard width. He said: “This is where national standards would come in.

In brief: Tim Ridgway heads up Latest News

A

n award-winning journalist has joined The Latest ranks.

Bill Smith, MD of the Latest says “We are delighted that Tim Ridgway has taken up the post of Head of News at Latest TV ahead of the new city station on freeview Channel 8 launching soon.”

Tim, 27, worked at the Argus for nearly 5 years and was formerly the local government reporter in Brighton where he went toe to toe with the city's decision makers.

He also writes a fortnightly column for the city's daily newspaper. He plans to bring a fair and impartial approach to Latest, where he will

be responsible for helping create the news coverage for the new channel.

Tim said: “It’s fantastic to join such a creative and enthusiastic team at the The Latest.

“There is a lot of work to be done but it is a great honour to be tasked

One of the leading authorities on UK politics with David Cameron and Mike Weatherley

“In our cycle lanes, anything that we have put in over the last few years is a minimum of two metres, because we consider that to be the minimum acceptable. Anything less than that is a compromise … I think there are accepted standards but having it laid down in a national standard for infrastructure would be invaluable.

“We are starting to work more closely with our neighbouring authorities but there is a long way to go. Locally we have created the idea of a Greater Brighton and our ‘cycle city ambition’ bid was based on the Greater Brighton area.

Unfortunately, that was unsuccessful but for the first time it had cross-boundary infrastructure.

That is part of our 10-year vision for cycling in the area because we know that movements do not end at the city boundary.”

Within the city limits, he spoke about the revamp of the Seven Dials and the introduction of 20mph speed limits as well as the danger presented by lorries. When the House of Commons Transport Select Committee reports later this year, it will be interesting to see whether the cross-party group of MPs accepts Councillor Davey’s ideas. ■

with helping create a station which everyone in this special city can be proud of.”

Originally from Oldham, near Manchester, Tim joined The Argus in 2009. Within 18 months he took responsibility for covering the city's vibrant political scene as well as events further afield in Westminster.

Highlights during that time include interviewing two Prime Ministers and attending a reception with David Cameron at Number 10 Downing Street.

He was also one of the first journalists to interview Caroline Lucas when she became the country's first Green MP after her historic victory in Brighton Pavilion in 2010. Tim was awarded specialist reporter of the year (highly commended) at the 2012 EDF Energy London and South of England awards.

A year later he won the overall columnist of the year title at the same awards.

CELEBCITY IN THE BIG APPLE

aturalist and BBC broadcaster Chris Packham is backing an environmental centre for Brighton & Hove. Beacon Hub Brighton is part of a plan by conservation group Friends of Beacon Hill (FOBH) to maintain and promote the Beacon Hill Nature Reserve between (our sweet home) Rottingdean and Ovingdean. The plan is to also renovate the old golf course into a community and education hub focusing on conservation of the natural world and local heritage.

The planned centre would provide permanent exhibitions on local flora and fauna, space for local artists and crafts people to display their work, a classroom for visiting parties of school children, a venue for interested groups and clubs to meet and share knowledge, and a meeting place for walkers, cyclists, nature lovers, local residents, parents and children (and breathe!).

There’s also rumours of a small café with an adjoining children's 'eco' play area joining the original build if all goes ahead. With Chris Packham, who followed the lives of two urban fox families in Brighton in last year's Autumnwatch, leading the way we only hope Brighton and Hove council will take note. Discussing the plans Packham said: “Brighton is one of the liveliest, interesting and cosmopolitan cities in Europe. It’s also perched on the edge of one of the most important pieces of habitat that we have anywhere in Europe. The Downs are a great repository of unique life, a beautiful landscape and a treasure trove of history and culture. Developing an educational focus point for Brighton’s populace to better enable them to engage with this fabulous and valuable part of the world is quite simply a fantastic and irresistible idea.” Go Chris!

Last week we cheerily relocated our Brighton office to New York City where there was no rain but plenty of snow as the temperatures dropped to a spinechiling -11C. A great place for a celeb spot; while in the city that never sleeps we spied bearded Brokeback Mountain bombshell Jake Gyllenhaal dining with a friend in Soho and the ever fragrant Brit star Orlando Bloom dodging the snowdrifts in Chinatown ahead of that night’s premiere of his new film Romeo And Juliet at Chelsea Cinemas.

While we were in the Big Apple we took in the latest Ben Eine show Heartfelt at the Judith Charles Gallery on the Bowery. Ben, who rose to international fame when David Cameron presented one of his works to Barack Obama on his first state visit to the White House, was in town painting up a storm on walls from Broadway to the famous Rikers Island prison. You can see more of his work at einesigns.co.uk and, of course all over East London.

NICK CAVE

Brighton resident Nick Cave – front man of cult band "The Bad Seeds" – has presented his latest cinema project to the Berlin Film Festival, and our city has a starring role! In amongst shots of Cave composing Push the Sky Away, talking to a psychoanalyst and performing with The Bad Seeds, are far more exciting glimpses of Brighton doing its ‘thang’. The Brighton frames were shot a while back – as Celeb City reported when they glimpsed Kylie helping her ‘Where The Wild Roses Grow’ duet-partner along the seafont. We’re sure the film will be typically obscure, but none-the-lessbrilliant, and eagerly anticipate its release later this year.

CONOR MAYNARD’S NEW ALBUM

Brighton’s answer to Justin Bieber – minus the arrests, strippers and sizzurp (we hope!) – Conor Maynard has been discussing his much anticipated sophomore album. The R U Crazystar explains he’s been “trying lots of weird stuff,” in the studio at the moment, alongside the likes of Labyrinth, Travie McCoy, and hip-hop mega-mind, Timbaland. Spending last week’s Valentine’s Day in Dubai with his GF, Maynard dished on his upcoming release, on which he hopes to secure a track with the ‘everything-I-touch-turns-to-music-gold’ singer/producer Pharrell. This came hot on the heels of the announcement, and subsequent sell-out, of Conor’s pre-BRIT awards show at the Brooklyn Bowl this week. We’re sure Mayniac’s everywhere are chewing at the bit to hear Conor’s new stuff – whereas we’re taking bets on whether he’ll do ‘a Bieber’ any time soon.

Rule the roost The music of The Rolling Stones comes to the Theatre Royal Brighton in Rooster

R

ambert brings rock ’n’ roll swagger to the Theatre Royal Brighton this month with a spectacular evening’s entertainment, featuring the music of The Rolling Stones in Rooster. This will be the first time in 13 years that the piece has been performed in the UK and its return is eagerly anticipated.

Rooster is Christopher Bruce's electrifying celebration of the swinging Sixties set to h e c ov

THEATRE ROYAL BRIGHTON and is particularly well known in Israel and the US, fusing traditional and contemporary styles in his work.

Also presented as part of the evening will be the short, sharp solo, Dutiful Ducks, choreographed by

music by the Rolling Stones. Sharpsuited, snake-hipped men and strong, sassy women perform virtuoso courtship dances to some of the Stones' most famous tunes, including ‘Not Fade Away’, ‘Paint It Black’, ‘As Tears Go By’, ‘Sympathy For The Devil’ and ‘Little Red Rooster’. Rooster was created by former Rambert artistic director Christopher Bruce in 1991.

Richard Alston to the tonguetwisting word poem of the same name. It will be accompanied by a rare opportunity to see Merce Cunningham’s Sounddance, which features an improvised electronic score that is different each night.

Enjoy an evening’s entertainment that celebrates everything that Rambert does best: premiering exciting new dance alongside classic masterpieces and showcasing world class dancers, all accompanied by live music performed by the Rambert Orchestra.

L7 INTERVIEW What’s amazed you today?

Helen: “The number of comments I get about the Periodic Table dress I wear as part of the show.

Although I’m more amazed how few are about my careful positioning of the element Arsenic.”

I know it's an old question but I really am curious, what is the difference between a nerd and a geek?

Matt: “I think a nerd is defined by their oddly-specific but joyful enthusiasm for something that isn’t generally perceived as part of mainstream culture.”

Helen: “But a geek is all obsession and no social skills.”

Steve: “Although if you ask a geek that question, they’ll give you exactly the opposite answer...”

Last time you came to town there were lasers involved. What from this show might we expect to find in an old episode of 'Star Trek'?

Helen: “We have several romantic gift suggestions for your future partner. By “future partner” I mean several thousand years into the future, because my gift suggestion is cryogenic freezing.”

Steve: “There will also be dangerous experiments with fire and electricity.”

Matt: “And smoke. Because we all know that there is a strong “I’m more amazed correlation between the two. it’s not necessarily how few are about my Although, causal.”

careful positioning of the element Arsenic”

REVENGE OF THE NERDS Made up of Helen Arney, Matt Parker and Steve Mould, Festival Of The Spoken Nerd is in town for the Brighton Science Festival. Victoria Nangle probes a little deeper...

How are you today?

Matt: “Not bad, for halfway through the tour. We’re currently enjoying the Cambridgeshire countryside from our luxury wifi-enabled tour van, complete with AeroPress coffee maker and 230-volt transformer so we can power all our laptops from a single cigarette lighter. Technology FTW!” Your show is called ‘Full Frontal Nerdity', and it does say for ages over 15. Is this because it'll just blow the mind of anyone who hasn't finished GCSEs or are there rude bits?

Helen: “It’s a bit of both. We try to make our shows feel more like a rowdy comedy club than a cuddly, family-friendly theatre show. Kids get loads of chances to get their hands on science in school, or in all the extra-curricular stuff available to them. But there’s not much for adults who have left the classroom behind but still love to fill their heads with brain-boggling ideas or just go “ooh, fire!” at Steve’s flame tornado.”

Steve: “Science is too much fun just to leave it with

Helen, I love your songs – very good of you to give away an entire album over Christmas for charity. Can the guys sing? And if so, any chance of them being your backing band for a track?

Helen: “Unfortunately Matt and Steve can’t sing a note between them, but they have other skills that might be useful in creating the ultimate Nerd Band.”

Matt: “I am entirely a-musical, so I provide backing maths. Steve provides backing experiments and dubstep remixes, which is a rough approximation of music.”

Steve: “Because where there’s science there’s dubstep. That’s a causal link right there.”

What was the last thing that surprised you that you knew and the person you were talking to didn't?

Matt: “I’m surprised at how many of our audience members don’t know that digital photos are spreadsheets. All digital images are spreadsheets of red, green and blue values which are then displayed in a grid. All digital monitors are spreadsheet displays, so if you’re reading this online, you’re actually just looking at a spreadsheet.”

What do you wish you knew?

Steve: “I wish I knew how to visualise things in four dimensions.”

Matt: “I wish I knew if we’re going to prove the twin-prime conjecture.”

Helen: “I wish I knew how to change the subject when these two get started...”

What do you hope will have been invented in 20 years time?

Matt: “Self-driving tour vans...”

Helen:”...powered by waste food scraps, like in Back To The Future.”

Steve: “Roads? Where we’re going we don’t need roads.”

the kids, that’s why we started Festival Of The Spoken Nerd. Where else can nerdy adults geek out without worrying that the show is corrupting young minds? At one point Matt suggests they try sexting in binary. That might explain why we have a minimum age recommendation.”

Matt: “Also the show contains some very graphic material. By which I mean actual graphs.”

And what do you hope to have seen the back of by the year 2034?

Steve: “Paper. But obviously not the paper that Latest 7 is printed on. That stuff’s fine.

BRIGHTON WRITES

Andrew Kay

Sponsored by Bardsley’s Fish & Chips

The clap N

o, not that kind of clap, thank you very much. The clap I refer to is applause, the supposedly spontaneous expression of approval or joy that sees us slapping one hand against the other to create a rippling sound of delight. Or at least that’s what it should be – should it not?

Of late I have become slightly wary of clapping.

It seems to have become a cover-all gesture for all manner of things. I started to ponder this whilst sat at a concert. It was an act that I have liked for a long time but somehow the joy I was hoping to feel was being marred, and by the clap. You see at every song, within a few bars, or even a few notes sometimes, the audience would burst into applause, sometimes so loud that I could not hear the music I had gone to hear.

So what was that applause for? Well, you could argue that it was praise for the artists’ artistry, for writing the song or having chosen to record a song written by someone else. It could have been applause given in advance for the performance we were about to hear, if, of course, we could hear above the applause...

What I suspect is that it is applause of self congratulation from an audience who are delighted that they have recognised the song from just a few notes. Well done but shut up now please so the rest of us can hear what have come to hear.

“Clapping is reaching epidemic status with many of us bashing our hands together at the slightest provocation”

The same happens in the theatre, when a known actor makes an entrance and the audience burst into applause in recognition of their past acclaim, their achievements, whether it be on stage, screen or TV or perhaps even because they won a rather ugly court case in which they were acquitted of some heinous crime. All the same, the play stops for a few moments whilst the actor acknowledges that the audience know who she or he is. Very dull if all you want to know is what the play is about.

Clapping is reaching epidemic status with many of us bashing our hands together at the slightest provocation. This is, of course, making me sound rather curmudgeonly once again, which I am not.

I will stand and clap like billy-o when I feel it is deserved, often rising to my feet to ovate with fervour – I just don’t like it intruding on the performance or the beginning and end of a piece of music. And don’t get me started on those people who feel the need to shout out before the end of a song. ‘Bravo’ they cry, often unaware that they have the gender wrong. Philistines!

But this is not all, the most irritating use of the manual expression of pleasure comes on TV and mainly on chat shows. I rather enjoy chat shows, especially the good ones, although the bad ones can be equally good fun. Nothing is better than a bright star running rings around an inept presenter.

Why is it though that at the end of an interview when the presenter thanks the guest for coming on, especially when the opportunity has been used simply to plug a new book, record, film... that the guest applauds him/herself? You must have noticed; Graham Norton says thank you and the guest stands up and starts to clap, Jonathan Ross says thank you and the guest bursts into selfpraising applause. What is this? Surely they must see that it looks silly.

Bring back the discrete bow, the polite nod of the head in acknowledgement – even the curtsey, well why not? The audience applauds, at the right time please, and the star accepts and shows appreciation for that applause.

I’ve been to many TV recordings and seen them employ a card or a flashing light to say ‘applause now’, please, oh please can we have one that says the opposite, just shut the...

ONLY JOKING! 15

Brian Mitchell and Joseph Nixon’s thoroughly scurrilous Brighton column

Hove factually Five more fantabulous facts you didn’t know about Hove

1

Due to an administrative error, household recycling in Hove is collected only once a year, on November 31st, a date that does not exist.

2

The 1906 Olympic Games were held in Hove, and were a largely dismal affair, only enlivened by a scandal in which Belgian triple jump gold medal-winner Armand Verhegghe was discovered to be two dwarves, one sitting atop the other's shoulders.

3

One of the many mysteries surrounding the 1968 murder of Bobby Kennedy is the question of

why, in 1967, brainwash-rumour assassin Sirhan Sirhan had the legend “BLATCHINGTON ROAD” tattooed across his chest.

4

George Orwell’s 1933 memoir “Down and Out in Paris and London” was originally titled “Down and Out in Paris and London and Hove.” The final, sexually explicit, section of the book was removed prior to publication by Victor Gollancz.

5

Though Hove has a population of 91,000, it has only three working flush toilets, which are used on a time-share basis.

What was that?

Can’t remember the name of a movie, song, book or similar? Mike Hunter is the man with the answers Dear Mike, I’m praying you can help me. My hubbys birthday’s coming up and, as it's the big four-oh, I’d like to do something special. I was thinking of hiring a lookalike to surprise him– and I know there’s this old-time Hollywood film actress he likes, but I can’t remember her name. I think most of her most famous work was done in the 40s and 50s, but she’s dead now, and has been for some time. I’ve a feeling she was the quintessential “dumb blonde” with a sexy, breathy voice and voluptuous figure, and that her life was touched by tragedy. I have a mental image of a blonde woman in a white dress, with a plunging neckline, the skirt of which is being blown up by a subway grille on which she stands. Any ideas? Oh, and I've a feeling she was married to both Joe DiMaggio and Arthur Miller and had an affair with JFK. Thanks, Maureen Trump, Hove Dear Maureen, Don't worry, I’m going to tell you the answer, just you, and nobody else but you, boo boop-e-do. Ha! Yes, the famous siren who has captured your hubby's heart is, of course, none other than the blonde bombshell herself, Edith Evans.

ANDREW KAY’S FOOD & DRINK

Food & Drink Andrew Kay enjoys a tasty dinner at Coast Grill in Brighton’s Lanes

Griller warfare M

uch as I love my fancy foods, I’m equally at home with the simpler things in life. And, so often, a restaurant that focuses on doing the simpler things well, will, to my way of thinking, be so much more satisfying.

Coast Grill has recently rethought what it does and to great effect. The simpler menu leans heavily on the grill and I have to say, it works.

I arrived early evening with my friend Ms L, we were off to the theatre after but after a long day at the coal face of modern media we both had hearty appetites. This is a good thing at a grill restaurant as, quite rightly so, the menu does not err on the side of dainty, far from it, the food here was very generous. In fact, in hindsight, as we eased ourselves in the snug theatre seats, we might have ordered less.

We didn’t though, we gave that menu a thorough, and very enjoyable, thrashing.

Starting out by sharing some fishies. A sharing platter of whitebait and calamari was excellent, piping hot with tasty fishes and tender rings of squid. To accompany this I also ordered the king prawns. These too were top notch, great big beasts packed with flavour and accompanied by a good dip. It was both delicious and generous and on a less hungry night it might well have done the trick without going any further. It was, however, not a light bite night, and we pressed on.

17

Ms L decided that a burger was a good idea and had spotted on a board of daily specials a lamb burger served with minted yoghurt. I have to say that the combination sounded good and the speed with which she devoured it was confirmation of the fact that it was. Not that I am saying that she is a gannet, just that she relished the plate of food before her.

A few days earlier I had sat and watched as my friend Ms C daintily picked her way across a plate of delicious pork ribs. I watched with envy as she did so.

I love ribs, I like them dry with salt and chilli, I like them sticky with chilli sauce, I like them glazed with honey and I particularly enjoyed these with a Jack Daniel’s glaze. Well, what’s not to like about food that involves good booze?

I could have had a plate of ribs alone but there was an option for a plate that was half ribs and half chilli chicken wings. These are another favourite of mine and I can happily sit and pick at them until the – well, until the chickens come home to roost.

Our dishes came with excellent fries and tip top onion rings too, and by the time I was finished I was surrounded by bones and sticky to the wrists, a delicious state of affairs to my way of thinking.

Puddings should have been a no go area on this occasion but you know how seriously I take this job, so my health was cast to one side as I endeavoured to provide a full and fullsome report. Ms L was happy to join me in this and made light of a very good crème brûlée. This time I went to the specials board and chose the Malteser cheesecake. Now the man that came up with this idea is a bad, bad person. I mean Maltesers are delicious enough as they stand, but to incorporate them into a cheesecake was devilish – devilishly good, that is. I would have only one complaint and that was that the portion was too big, well too big for me really. It meant that for the rest of the evening I had to waddle around, more-so than I usually do.

We shared a bottle of Argentinian Malbec that hit just the right spot but had no room for coffee, no surprise really after our huge feast.

Coast Grill has had a bit of a make-over too. It’s looking good, cosy and warm inside. Sadly at this time of year dining alfresco on their large terrace was not an option. I know that in the warmer months dining there is a great buzz and you can often be entertained by some rather good street musicians, although that can be a bit hit and miss if, like me, you have an aversion to jazz of the trad kind.

Sometimes it takes a radical rethink to make a restaurant work and the team that have gone into Coast have done an excellent job by focusing on a smaller but no less ambitious menu, filled with favourites that are certain to please. Simple can be so good and at Coast it was simply delicious.

WHAT’S ON STAGE STAGE: WEIGHTLESS ollowing sell-out performances in Israel, award-winning choreographer, Yael Flexer is back with digital artist Nic Sandiland. Working together as Flexer & Sandiland, this unification signifies the growing collaborative work the pair has produced over the last few years, creating live work for the stage as well as gallery based and sited digital installations.

Weightless is the brand new work from Flexer & Sandiland.

Celebrating the company’s 20th anniversary, Weightless - in a tongue in cheek way - references its own historical position. It questions the ‘weight’ of history, both personal and aesthetic: what is it that roots us down physically and emotionally? What might it feel like to let go or take flight?

Engaging and thoughtful, this show carries Yael Flexer’s recognisable stamp of witty text and wry humour combined with fast paced, space hungry movement and a driving musical score by composers Dougie Evans and Karni Postel. Nic Sandiland provides Weightless with live digital projection and a sonic environment of disembodied voices and after images with text

by Wendy Houstoun.

Yael started her choreographic career as artist in Residence at The Place in 1993 and went on to establish Bedam Dance Company.

She has gone onto create 9 international touring productions over the past 20 years and most recently joined forces with long term collaborator Nic Sandiland to create Flexer and Sandiland.

For Weightless, this special celebratory piece, Yael continues her multi-disciplinary approach to theatre by combining dance, music and text. She brings together an

irect from a total sell-out run at last year’s Edinburgh festival, Sony Award Winner, Edinburgh Comedy Award Nominee, Chortle Award winner and star of Radio 4 and BBC 2, Tom Wrigglesworth, heads to Brighton Dome with an exquisite new show.

In turns heart-wrenching and hilarious, Utterly At Odds With the Universe takes Tom on an emotional journey from childhood to adulthood, exploring the poignant and profound relationship with his granddad. The two frequently taped themselves interviewing each other and it is in these early conversations that Tom comes to fully understand the influence this man has had on his own life and explores the fantasy of being able to make ‘one final interview’.

COMEDY: STEVE PUNT INTERVIEW Punt & Dennis are coming to town with a brand new show!

Steve Punt had a word with Victoria Nangle about it You have been working with Hugh Dennis for a long time. What’s the secret to a good comedy relationship?

“Alcohol. Tolerance. The ability to deflect flying tomatoes towards the other person.”

Can you tell us something unusual about the show you’re about to tour?

“It features a large photograph of some Danish pastries, and a horse peering through a window.”

What’s your favourite aspect of taking a new show out on the road?

“The fact it’s new. New jokes are always the most fun.”

There’s such a quick turnaround of material on The Now Show. Do you ever find a dark wish that a story in the news will continue for a couple more days so that you can write more about a particular subject?

“It’s very sad sometimes watching a big laugh shrivel and die as the story becomes less and less topical. Those kind of jokes are like mayflies, really.”

How small is Jon Holmes [Now Show regular]? And do you have a current favourite description of his minutiae?

“He once got beaten up by a gang of Playmobil people, I know that...”

I loved The Mary Whitehouse Experience. These days it seems that satire has become more the domain of older more established comics. Ideally situated on the Now Show to see younger comics with something to say in this sphere, which four young contemporary funny folk would you lock in a room and give a BBC show to?

“Holly Walsh, Sara Pascoe, Lloyd Langford and someone really short – so there can be jokes about it.”

COMEDY: MITCH BENN IS THE 37TH BEATLE Mitch’s new show combines his Scouse upbringing with his love of music and a lifelong obsession with Liverpool's most famous sons. It is most definitely not a tribute show.

Starring Tilda and Tom Hiddleston, the stylish and sexy film should make for a good date night.

Released 21 February Showing at Duke of York's Picturehouse and Duke's At Komedia

What do you have plans to do ‘one day’?

“A novel about the very early days of television, which I think are really interesting – so little has changed!”

And what do you plan to do in 2014?

“Watch the World Cup, and finally put that self-assembly cupboard together.”

As a prolific writer and editor for others, what is your favourite word?

“Nugatory. No idea what it means.”

MUSIC: EZRA FURMAN There has been some frothing at the mouth over this American dude, and it’s not hard to see why. There just isn’t enough raucous but intelligent rock at the moment, and what Furman delivers, especially via his last album Day of the Dog, is a distillation of all that is best about American rock’n’roll – hip swinging', foot tapin’ and rip-roaring’ songs that are raw but tuneful, songs that speak of a past, but are delivered very much in the now.

MUSIC: BETH NIELSEN CHAPMAN Jeff Hemmings talks to Texas-born singer songwriter

T

exan born Beth Nielsen Chapman is the consummate singer songwriter, an artist who has been releasing albums since 1990 and has penned numerous hits and written songs for the likes of Elton John, The Indigo Girls, Emmylou Harris, Willie Nelson and Bonnie Raitt. As someone who has embraced musical diversity she is also forthright campaigner and teacher on the 'magic of creativity.

For her new album though she decided to record songs she had written but never recorded before.

Aptly enough it is called UnCovered. “I’m taking them back!” she says over the phone. “All the songs bar one I had never recorded before. Bob Harris [Whisperin’ Bob Harris, the legendary broadcaster] saved me! I had been toying with the idea, but hadn’t really got my head around it. He said, ‘Well, Beth [in his whispering way], this is so obvious. The tracks are almost done and it’s screaming out to be called ‘uncovered’,’ which was perfect, not ‘recovered’ which might have sounded like I was in AA or something.”

She’s been spending much of the new year here in the UK, performing at Celtic Connections and getting ready to tour the UK. But just after this conversation and before the tour started she was due to fly back to America to attend the Grammys, where she was nominated (but didn’t win) for Best Children's album, The Mighty Sky. “I did that album with Rocky Alvey, he runs an observatory in Nashville, and he wrote a lot of the lyrics for The Mighty Sky, which is about astronomy in general.”

As well as writing for children, she has composed an album sung in Sanksrit, written a accapela collection of ancient Latin Hymns and released Prism (2007), a ten-year labour of love that resulted in an album of songs from all paths of faith sung in nine languages!

Her obvious passion for life has perhaps been further fired by a couple of major events in her life; the death of her husband in 1994 and the breast cancer she fought and beat a few years ago. “My refuge is to write. I’ve only had one or two times when I wasn't writing for any length of time; once when I had cancer and was having chemotherapy, but I'd still be thinking about melodies, I just had too much medicine going on in my head.

As for UnCovered, one of the songs is called Strong Enough To Bend, a song she initially gave to Willie Nelson. “I got a call from him, he liked what he’d heard... I didn’t have any expectation he would actually record that song, but he liked it and I was so honoured to be asked to write for him. That song gave Willie his 14th country number one.”

How does she stay inspired? “Just fill the tank with something other than a reality show! Luckily, I had some hits when the industry was a bit different.

Now, its’ more difficult to survive even if you have hits. But we juts gotta keep working... it’s more important to be doing it rather than the thinking about the immediate gains. If I have to I will stand on a street corner and busk for a living... And as long as there is wheelchair access, I’ll be gigging.”

H

ow do you write about a show in which you are implored not to reveal anything? Well, it’s both difficult and easy. Derren Brown has been amazing us for some time now with his very own super-cool brand of magic and mind tricks. The neo-gothic presentation has created an air of sinister disquiet for him for some time and his cooler than cool, histrionicfree presentation style breeds an air of reverence. On TV it’s chilling but live something else happens, or at least in this tour of his show Infamous.

Here he opens with an attitude of disarming self-deprecation. Like much of the rest of his show, I suspect it’s a trick. In fact he’s fast to tell us that this is all trickery, even cheating. What this does is make us like the man even more, he has an unassuming charm that is quite irresistible, and whether this too is part of the act or the reality is immaterial. Like him you must – and thus he lures you into his web of magical intrigue.

At times he even claims that he will show you how he does what he does, but of course he does not, again sucking you deeper in. He uses vulnerability to heighten your empathy, makes simple jokes that make him seem even more human and all the time tells us that it’s all a trick, a magical conceit and the simple training of his brain.

What he does not claim at any time is that he is a genius – but he clearly is, the show is genius, the production values are breathtaking and he is simply brilliant throughout – magic!

ROBERT POWELL IN JUST SO

As the military step back from Afghanistan and we are remembering 1914, the time is right to reassess Rudyard Kipling. Robert Powell, relaxed with a finely polished script, gently took us through his picaresque and fascinating life. I’d never appreciated the significance of Kipling’s distressing childhood or the extent of his American connections. The selection of wistful, poignant or humorous episodes were punctuated by short musical interludes, from Bach to Rachmaninov and favourite pieces of Elgar. They seemed to turn the unadorned stage into an Edwardian parlour. Affectionate and informative, it made a worthy tribute to a great writer.

Connaught Theatre, Worthing, 9 February 2014 ✪✪✪✪ Andrew Connal

AVENUE Q

A remarkable production of the much-loved reality-check puppetheavy comedy musical was delivered up by Brighton Theatre Group. From the off, the strength of everyone’s vocals was just incredible, most impressively from leads Edd Berridge (Princeton) and Sarah Edinburgh (Kate Monster).

Using the original puppets and video clips from the West End touring show was a great coup, ensuring the strength of the furry performances, with especial note to Berridge's nuanced puppet work with his wide-eyed avatar. Warm, cutting, dysfunctional, a great set and brimming with fun (despite a few technical hitches) – I was ready to compromise having seen the original West End show and really didn't have to.

SADE ALI ON AN EPIC NIGHT AT AMMOS BRIGHTON

S

o last Friday saw another amazing night for Lollipop at Ammos Brighton! As a two off the very popular upcoming Afrobeats artists DRB Lasgidi and Joulesdakid hit the decks and gave an outstanding performance! From the minute the doors opened the ladies were piling in (probably to take advantage of the free entry before 11.30pm) but hey, I would have done the same. After the free entry for ladies finished the club continued to fill up, reaching full capacity by 1.30am. The vibe was good, the drinks were cheap, the bottles were flowing and the artists and DJs couldn’t have been more on point. I asked a friend after the night to give me one word to describe his night, the word he chose was ‘epic’. In my opinion he couldn’t have put it better. There were even girls outside the club literally crying because the club reached its limit. I’m sure next week they will turn up earlier. My favourite part of the night had to be the end of the night when the DJ played ‘Skelewu’ and the crowd grouped together and imitated the YouTube video (just YouTube ‘Skelewu’ to see). The funniest part of it was that Nikita (you all know as the ‘pirate’) attempted to do the dance too. But when you clap at the most silent and wrong time in the song, the whole club looks at you and even the DJ is shaking his head I think that is the moment you give up and stick to the ‘Dutty Wine’. To top off the night DJ Toocold aka Peter turned up and jumped on the mic and hyped up the crowd even more. Every Friday Lollipop will never fail to give me a good end to the week.

Coming up in the next few months Lollipop will play host to many more artists and this week will be bringing back radio 1xtras DJ Dubl to the decks to have a one-off old school Bashment night.

Finally Brighton has something many people have been waiting for, a night with two music floors, one floor dedicated for Classic old school R&B – Hip Hop & Dancehall. Time for a proper old school reunion party. The night is called ‘Throwback Saturdays’ at 24 Karat club and will soon be playing host to Stylo G!

W

e’re lucky to live in a city with so much to do to suit all budgets and tastes, and, with that in mind, it makes no sense to use much space on sold out gigs, except to say there may be returns for Ezra Furman (Green Door Store, Tues) Speedy Ortiz and Joanna Gruesome (Green Door Store, Sons of Noel & Adrian Thu) and London Grammar (Dome, Sun). Without doubt all three will be excellent nights, they’re sold out for a reason.

Italian prog rock legends Goblin (Concorde 2, Mon, £20) take to a Brighton stage for the first time in their 42-year career this week. Famed for their work on the soundtracks to Dario Argento films Profondo Rosso, Susperia and Dawn of The Dead, at their best they are like a horror-themed version of krautrock legends Can. Reports of their shows since most recent reformation have been exceptional and the likelihood is that there won't be another opportunity to see them on our doorstep. Support comes in the form of a rare show from the multi-headed Brighton folk beast Sons of Noel & Adrian.

Danny Brown (Coalition, Sat, £16) brings us his critically acclaimed hip-hop show to promote his excellent Old album of last year. He’s widely acknowledged as one of the most idiosyncratic and witty MCs in the business and, Kanye West aside, unparalleled in his ability to unify the hip-hop and indie crowds.

The Green Door Store hosts a whole day of excellent local(ish) tunage starting at 2pm on Saturday. Called Worms (Green Door Store, Sat, £4) it will be headlined by hard rocking London two-piece Playlounge who have impressed on previous visits to Brighton, with the pre-Loveless My Bloody Valentine-esque Tyrannosaurus Dead and the Pavement like Magic Gang the pick of the day’s supports.

For those of you who like your rock a little heavier, Bristol based punks Caves (The Hope, Thu, £4) make another of their frequent visits to Brighton supported by a stellar local cast. Not tied to a traditional punk sound, their influences range from Queen to Weezer, most noticeably in their catchy riffs, tremendous vocals and overall monstrous sound.

Finally, it wouldn't be Brighton without a good free gig and the monthly Dub Organiser (Blind Tiger, Thu, Free) is a 100% live mix and amalgamation of local reggae outfits clubbing together for one hell of a dub party. Just watch you don’t overindulge, you’ve got work tomorrow.

With Val Aviv

★ARIES {Mar 21–Apr 20}

Your ruling planet Mars’ protracted transit through your opposite sign of relationship obsessed libra, might make you feel like your love life or all forms of partnership are under the sway of others.

★TAURUS {Apr 21–May 21}

With harsh Saturn in your opposite sign of power obsessed Scorpio, you now realise there’s a price to pay for any long term commitments to relationships. As you’re goaded by a cool and detached Mercury, you can re-assess your fears.

★GEMINI {May 22–June 21}

With the moon going through the romantic area of your chart, you could feel a little spell bound by all the attention you’re receiving. Drop all the emotionalism and get real.

★CANCER {June 22–July 22}

Domestically you would like things to be all fluffy and cosy at home, but with Mars and your ruler the Moon making forceful waves in your personal space, a home improvement could be the solution for all that pent up emotional energy.

★LEO {July 23–Aug 22}

You could be tempted by the dark Moon Lilith to be more experimental than usual. So, your labido could be running at an all time high. Maybe it’s time to define a friendship and take it to a more romantic level? Seduction is your middle name.

★VIRGO {Aug 23–Sep 22}

A partners front might be slipping and you can see beneath their mystical bravado, that they’re wounded in some way and in great need of your healing. You mustn’t help them to deceive themselves, remember, you’re the voice of reason.

★LIBRA {Sep 23–Oct 22}

With dynamic Mars in your sign, don’t get frustrated, you need to pace yourself. You can have that lover, you can get that promotion, but it’s a question of balancing your needs with others. You don’t need to sugar coat anything.

★SCORPIO {Oct 23–Nov 21}

Passion? Maybe, but with Saturn in your sign, you may feel far more inhibited than others might realise. You are laying down the foundations for a more stable future, but don’t put up too many barriers because you could wind up deflecting all the good stuff that’s keen to transform your life.

★SAGITTARIUS {Nov 22–Dec 20}

Your ruling planet Jupiter might be making you feel more sensitive than normal, but there’s no need to get emotionally armoured. Go with the flow as you always do and apply that highly philosophical anchor to that romantic or business conundrum and you’ll come up trumps.

★CAPRICORN {Dec 21–Jan 19}

Of course you’re very conventional, but maybe it’s time to embrace a more bohemian approach. As your sense of self is being revolutionised, on the one hand, you’ve got to be practical, but maybe a calculated risk in an emotional and/or professional arena will come up trumps.

★AQUARIUS {Jan 20–Feb 19}

If you don’t want others to think you’re just being a woolly minded idealist, while cerebral Mercury is retrograding, then maybe it’s time to re-evaluate your stance on world events and your own personal destiny, before espousing anything too radical.

★PISCES {Feb 20–Mar 20}

Is it a mystic or a psychiatrist you need to see with Chiron and Neptune in your sign? You’re so attracted to the higher realms of the beyond, but remember Einstein was a Pisces, and a more practical approach can help to show off your genius in a much more considered light.

Telly Talk With Victoria Nangle

Trivia pursuit S

omebody up there reckons I don’t know enough. And by ‘somebody up there’ I mean someone working in London most likely, in charge of various television schedules. I am one of the masses and clearly I need to be educated. And as one of the masses the most straightforward way of doing this is via the medium of television.

I should’ve first realised when Jeremy Paxman stepped out from behind whatever desk he was previously superglued behind to start talking about the former British Empire in – originally titled – Empire. I mean, yes, it was happening before then, but how else could they entice the man who loves extremist ideas off the back to scorn, away from his of an economic period of “My education was fabulous scorn-nest casting struggle gives me plenty to scorn onto the politicians with dominated rather ponder. But if you ask me how such gay abandon? I think he many wives Henry VIII had I’d might just be casting scorn have to see if Carry On Don’t strongly by Nazis onto me with such dry irony Lose Your Head had any and Superpowers...” educational value. It didn’t.

I’m only just realising it. Why don’t I know all of this stuff Education has fashions just already about the history of like any other form, it just so our great nation? Why am I going: ‘well, that’s an happens that my rather fashionable education has interesting fact I never know – what else can you positioned me – and many others – with massive teach me great man?’. When really I should have gaps on the historical homefront, leaving a perfect learned all of this stuff at school like a good space to be filled by the rather engaging English schoolgirl. Shame on me for having a programmes on the telly. Of course there’s the flexible school syllabus! Never mind if it was incredibly dashing and internationally sellable something covered in class that I just might not’ve The Tudors (that I’m waiting for a week off with paid attention to.

Thursday 20 Big Ballet Channel 4, 9pm The documentary series following the larger than life dance company continues, under the guidance of dancer Wayne Sleep and prima ballerina Monica Loughman. The troupe has just five weeks to perfect their 25minute version of Swan Lake, and to fit rehearsals around their own busy work and home lives.

FILM: The Color Of Money BBC1, 11.35pm It’s always good to see Tom Cruise’s earlier films – before he had the swagger of a film star and instead had the hunger of a wannabe film star. Swagger is still present and correct though in this flick in the form of the twinkly Paul Newman, as the pair play the pool halls of America in this sequel to ‘The Hustler’. Top stuff.

The Big Reunion 2014 ITV2, 9pm So successful was the first series of putting the past in the past and – at the same time – reliving our youth, that The Big Reunion is back with new groups and even a supergroup. Yeah baby. Whole again are Eternal, A1, Damage, Girl Thing, 3T (remember those Jackson boys?) and 5th Story – a brand new boy (man) band. Wow.
