SPOTLIGHT

By Nicky Sweetland

Time and space through the eyes of children W

hen two local creatives struck up a conversation in a Greenwich art gallery, the wheels were set in motion for a very special project.

Writer Irena Hill and artist Lynn Bennett-Usher hatched a plan to create an adventure storybook, set in Greenwich and just a few weeks ago, the endeavor came to fruition with a launch at Eltham Library.

“We met in Irena’s Gallery; I had some of my paintings in there and we just started chatting about making an adventurous book for children”, Lynn told me at the event, where local families came to get

“We met in Irena’s Gallery; I had some of my paintings in there and we just started chatting about making an adventurous book for children” their first look at the book, entitled A Race with Time and Space.

Making the most of being set on the meridian, the imaginative pair has produced a beautiful piece of children’s literature, which will spark little imaginations, while educating them about the local surroundings.

Originally from Lancashire Lynn Bennett-Usher has been an artist for most of her life and has lived on the Progress Estate in Eltham for the last twelve years.

6 December 20 2017

With work that has often been described as illustrative, Lynn has exhibited all over the world but was interested in developing a book for children, which featured the local area and said, “It’s about Time and Space, who are two sisters, but obviously it has two connotations. It will take children on an adventure; they have to solve riddles and it will take them into places and they’ll

find clues. All the answers are actually in the back and there’s a lot of historical information as well, so it’s educational and interactive.”

Artist and Greenwich resident Irena Hill, who wrote the text to go along with Lynn’s beautiful illustrations told me, “If they live here, they’ll probably get all of the clues straight away but if they don’t they will have to learn quite a bit”

The book has been self-published by the duo, who are obviously extremely passionate about the area they live in and the work they do. It features a whole host of interesting locations in the borough.

Lynn said, “The nice thing is that it encourages them to go and look at all of the lovely places we’ve got in Greenwich; all of the historical

places and learn about them.”

Irena added, “It’s for the parents as well, because there’ll be things perhaps they don’t know as well.

The concept of Time and Space might be hard to understand but once you know they are sisters, it makes it easier.”

THEATRE

By Nicky Sweetland

The Deep Blue Sea T

he amateur theatre circuit in South East London is one of the most rich and vibrant in the country.

But despite a vast pool of talent to choose from, finding performers to fill juvenile male leading roles can still prove to be tricky. That challenge was faced

by Charlton’s Alexandra players, who after deciding to stage the Terrence Rattigan love story The Deep Blue Sea, soon realised they were going to struggle to find an actor to play the pivotal part of Freddie.

Following the huge success of the festive favourite Seasons Greetings last month, The Alexandra Players chose the powerful drama as their February production. But although many local stage stars were cast in the play, sourcing an actor to fill the role of the young pilot proved to be a trickier prospect.

The character - who was played

by Tom Hiddleston in the 2012 film version - is a young former RAF pilot who embarks on an affair with the wife of a judge.

And after exhaustive searching

throughout the area and campaigns on social media, eventually Sam Moore contacted the theatre company and was cast as the charismatic cad.

Director Louise Gaul said: “I got this message from Sam saying ‘I’m really nervous and I haven’t acted for six years’.” Louise encouraged the local actor to attend a reading and knew immediately that he was the right person for the part.

“As soon as Sam got up; he said three words and I got goose bumps. He was exactly what I was looking for. He has this confidence and bravado and he just blew us away.”

And Sam accepted the role much to Louise’s and the rest of the company’s delight.

The Deep Blue Sea is a touching tale of love and loss, which follows Hesta Collyer, the wife of a high court judge, who feels uninspired by her husband and so starts an affair with an ex-RAF pilot.

“It’s one of those torturous love stories, where she is constantly looking for more but Freddie, who she’s left her husband, for isn’t

able to give it to her. He’s just there for the fun of it all.”

Louise tells me that the play has autobiographical elements of Rattigan’s own life. “In the late 40s he [Terrence Rattigan] had a romance with a much younger

male actor called Kenneth Morgan.” Louise explains that Morgan left Rattigan for another man who treated him badly, and he took his own life in front of a gas fire a scenario, which is played out in The Deep Blue Sea. In fact, as Rattigan was unable to

write about an illegal homosexual relationship, he presented Morgan as Hester Collyer You can see The Deep Blue Sea at Alexandra Hall, Charlton from 14-17 February 2018. www.alexandraplayers.org.uk

The Magnificent Seven Winston Churchill would have been proud that the theatre that bears his name has once again produced a top notch pantomime.

We will fight the Wicked Witch on the beach, we will fight her in the streets, and we will definitely fight that evil old hag in the Forbidden Forest, writes Michael Holland.

Yes, it is panto season in Bromley and with Eastenders’ Kat Slater (Jessie Wallace) running the kingdom you know a few people are going to be told to ‘Shut it!’ And more often than not, it will be poor Muddles whose jolly countenance cuts no ice with a Queen who resorts to talking to her mirror to get updates on her ageing

laura@weekender.co.uk /

www.weekender.co.uk

process. Muddles was also getting in a pickle when confusing ‘smart fella’ with ‘fart smeller’, much to the joy of the kids in the audience, while the ‘pheasant plucker’ gag was left for older members to enjoy…

Oliver Tompsett does dashing prince with ease, while Jason Sutton thrives in a wig and heels as Nurse Nancy and ensures there are plenty of double entendres to go round. The kids from the local dance academy do a fine job of filling the stage with life while Jessie Wallace prowls around, seemingly followed by a cloud of billowing smoke at all times, shouting at the booing and baying audience. But it is Peter Firman’s Muddles that brings together all the elements of this show. His banter and magic tricks are

what pantos are about.

Nevertheless, it was the first entrance of the Seven Dwarves that amazed me - and just about everyone else in the theatre. Their very clever costumes had us wondering if they were really little people or highly disguised big people. Their movement and dancing was hilarious and I wish we could have had a lot more of them.

Panto season is short but very sweet, and all children should see one at least once a year.

Snow White and the Seven Dwarves is on at Churchill Theatre, High Street, Bromley, BR1 1HA until December 31st.

Times: 1pm, 5pm, 7pm.

Admission: £18 - £40.

ARTS & entertainment

By Nicky Sweetland

The great wall of Eltham 2017 HAS been another busy and hugely successful year for the team at Eltham Arts.

But 2018 promises to be even more exciting with the launch of their multifaceted Wall Project.

The group - which aims to connect the community through the arts - has gone a long way to establishing the town as a haven for virtuosos within South East London, with a multitude of projects and festivals over the last few years, attracting attention from all over the world.

Next year however, they have decided to facilitate a community multimedia project, which will include elements from almost every aspect of the arts world, while engaging local people of all ages.

From creative writing to film, murals and even a garden, the project will incorporate a vast range of mediums, but all with the theme of ‘Walls’ at their core and will include local community groups, performers and schools.

The first initiative to add to your diaries will be the Writing On the Wall, a short story and poetry creative writing challenge. This will be on the theme of Walls around you to encourage people to think about the walls around them and become inspired to express

themselves creatively in prose or poetry. It may be a wall on a house or historic building, a wall dividing cultures or a personal wall within

Filled with a renewed joy of life George returns to his family for Christmas. James Stewart gives one of his finest, most affecting performances and the film looks better than ever in its new restoration.

stage and cinema

By Nicky Sweetland

Favourite Festive films The festive season is traditionally a time to enjoy with our loved ones and often includes sitting down to watch a yuletide film. And the seasonal classics, with plenty of festive sparkle are always a hit. But whether you’re 8 or 80, you’re almost bound to have your favourite. In order to help avert another Christmas tradition (the annual family argument), we have compiled a list of 10 of the best festive films to help you select the perfect movie for your loved ones this Christmas. Most of them will be on at some point over the next few weeks, but you might have to scroll to the more obscure channels if you are determined to catch them all.

It’s A Wonderful Life (1946) Ok, I’ve got admit, this isn’t one of my favourites because it does start off a tad bleak. But I’m reliably informed it’s considered to be one of the greatest Christmas movies of all time and you have two opportunities to watch it on the big screen this season. Both Blackheath Halls (21 December) and Greenwich Picture House (24 December) are showing the classic movie in the run up to Christmas.

Jingle All The Way (1996) Forget Terminator and Predator, this Christmas comedy is (in my opinion) Arnold Schwarzenegger’s best work by far. It follows a father who is desperate to get hold of the season’s must have toy for his son (come on, we’ve all been there!) and is filled with slapstick fun for all the family.

Love Actually (2003) This heart-warming film by Richard Curtis has become as much a tradition in my house as roast turkey and chocolate orange for breakfast. The film boasts an all-star cast, which includes Martin Freeman, Hugh Grant, Emma Thompson and Alan Rickman and is a feel-good festive favourite.

Miracle on 34th Street (1994) There are two great versions of this wonderful Valentine Davies Christmas story. The 1947 black and white screen adaptation stars Maureen O’Hara, John Payne, Natalie Wood and Edmund Gwenn, but I prefer the full colour 1994 remake, which features Richard Attenborough as an adorable Kris Kringle.

Mrs. Santa Claus (1996) There are surprisingly few Christmas musicals and this one is rarely shown. But the made-for-TV movie features the indomitable Angela Lansbury and has original music, which will warm even the grumpiest scrooge.

laura@weekender.co.uk /

Santa Claus the Movie (1985) A real prototypical 80s movie, this was one of the first films to show a fairytale depiction of Santa’s workshop and led the way for others to follow. With a great story and marvelous cast including Dudley Moore and John Lithgow – this is still up there with the best.

Home Alone (1990) This is the film that launched the career of Macaulay Culkin and spawned a number of sequels (although only the second one is any good). Yes, the plot is pretty farfetched – it revolves around a young boy who is mistakenly left behind when the rest of his family goes off on holiday for Christmas – but this is a very funny and heart-warming comedy movie.

Nativity (2009) This delightful story by Debbie Isitt has recently been made into a musical stage show, starring Charlton’s very own Daniel Boys, but the original version was a semiimprovised film. It stars Martin Freeman as a competitive primary school teacher who makes a rash promise in the heat of competition.

Due to the film featuring mainly untrained child actors, it has a wonderfully raw and innocent quality to it that will melt you heart.

The Others There are few that didn’t make the list, but that were close, like Arthur Christmas, The Nightmare Before Christmas, The Polar Express and The Grinch, although I’m afraid Die Hard was a long way off. Well, it’s not really a Christmas film is it?

The Santa Clause (1994) The title of this one is a clever play on words (and not one of my usual typos!) relating to how the regeneration of Father Christmas occurs. It’s another one that led to a couple of sequels - which are both excellent - and gets everything right in terms of making sure all of the elements of the beloved legend are maintained, but are not too clichéd. In fact, The Santa Clause 2 is possibly (and perhaps controversially) my favourite Christmas film of all time.

Elf (2003) Love him or hate him, no one can deny Will Ferrell’s comedic aptitude and it is showcased to its full in this enchanting comedy.

But it’s the cult appeal of this film that really makes it a winner, with an abundance of hilarious quotes to use with friends after you’ve watched. “The best way to spread Christmas cheer is singing loud for all to hear” and “Santa! Oh, my God! Santa’s coming! I know him! I know him!” are, personally, my favourite crowd pleasers.

BOOKS

A look back at The Good Old Days The Weekender has been featuring extracts from the The Good Old Days by Gilda O’Neill, published by Endeavour Press, in three serialization articles. This is the third and final instalment.

The Good Old Days is available to buy in print and digital, from Amazon and good book stores.

From chapter 7 Con Men, Tricksters, Clairvoyants and Frauds A demand for ever more thrilling experiences was growing and very quickly sitting in the circle at a full-blown seance had become all the rage, with spirit instruments playing, ghostly hands and feet appearing, and fully formed spirits materializing before the excited sitters. Conditions in the seances were carefully controlled, with the low lighting adding to the otherworldly atmosphere and, more importantly, providing cover for the people orchestrating the circle as they slipped prosthetic hands or feet over their own feet and then raised their legs and waved them over the table top without their deception being detected. The spirits are amongst us!

laura@weekender.co.uk /

Coins could be picked up with naked toes and dropped into glass tumblers, so the sitters experienced both a materialization and a clattering sound to astonish them. Spirit writing and numbers would appear on slates — blank ones being swapped by sleight of hand for ones that had already been written on — with the appropriate question having been noted and suitable answers having been palmed to give the correct response to the psychic’s enquiries. Phosphorescent paint would give a suitably otherworldly glow to the spirit emerging from a seance cabinet. Again the circle is blessed! This time with an actual visitation!

The ever-increasing fervour for such demonstrations meant that opportunities to exploit the grieving, the credulous and those merely seeking sensation abounded, and the world of the spirits became ever more — commercially — competitive.

Mediums worked hard and sometimes dirtily to expose their rivals as shams, as did stage magicians, and learned societies were set up to expose the whole lot of them as confidence

www.weekender.co.uk

tricksters.

Two conjurors praised in the Penny Illustrated Paper for their efforts to expose the sham — albeit in an entertaining and profitable way — were Maskelyne and Cooke. The climax to their show is described: Mr Maskelyne is a determined foe to the spiritualists; and he selects for exposure one of the latest ‘mediums’ who have performed before the London public: the fairhaired Mrs Fay, whose puerile tricks are done by Mr Cooke with a celerity no‘spiritualist’ could excel. There’s the old familiar cabinet a la Davenport brothers [celebrated ‘spiritualists’ from the United States] with this difference: it is put together before the spectators, who are represented on the stage by two gentlemen who have volunteered to try their best to see how the illusions are managed. Mr Cooke, his limbs bound fast by cords, is seated on a camp stool and tied fast to rings at the back of the cabinet. The regulation curtain is dropped, and in less than a minute, tambourines are played inside the cabinet, and other so-called spiritualist phenomena occur. The curtain is

then drawn up by Mr Maskelyne — who keeps up a running fire of satire against spiritualism and all its works — and Mr Cooke is seen quietly seated and bound as before ... It is the dark seance which most astonishes the audience.

Whilst Mr Cooke is still kept a prisoner in the cabinet the gas is turned out, and the hall is in complete darkness for a minute or so. During this time tambourines and banjos, dimly lit by phosphorescent light that throws a halo round them, float over the heads of the spectators, faintly strumming and beating all the while, and finally fall with a clang on the stage. In another instant the hall is light, and it is impossible to detect the agency by which the banjos and tambourines were

circulated in mid-air. As tangible tokens of the dark seance, flowers are discovered in the laps of some of the perplexed visitors; and one of the most agreeable entertainments in town is brought to a close by the assurance that Mr Maskelyne is no ‘spiritualist’ as ‘spiritualists’ have averred, but an honest and hearty hater and exposer of the humbug by which so many people have been deceived.

FOOD & drink

By Nicky Sweetland

A warm glow at The Summerfield F

or me, the first dusting of snow always brings with it a desire to find somewhere warm and cosy to spend time with friends and family. And if that involves indulging in a huge roast dinner, then it’s even better news.

The Summerfield Tavern

So with the London transport links grinding to a halt under the snowy sprinkling, we journeyed just down the road to The Summerfield Tavern in Lee and couldn’t have found a warmer place to spend the afternoon.

Much of the warmth comes from the reception you receive as you cross the threshold. Within the proper old-fashioned boozer, the Sunday crowd was on good form and the pub was filled with the sounds of chums sharing anecdotes over a lunchtime pint.

The interior also evokes a lovely snug feeling with plush leather furniture mingled with traditional oak. Landlord Joe has been in charge for 18 months and when he undertook a refurbishment early last year, he managed to keep all of the charm of an oldfashioned tavern while creating a luxurious interior design.

Joe has also kept the dining area separate to help maintain the feeling of a pub rather than making it to much like a restaurant and so we moseyed around to the back of the bar to settle down and wait for our feast.

And my goodness, what a banquet it was. I chose ‘the works’ - which meant I devoured three different types of meat - chicken, lamb and beef, all cooked to perfection, succulent and obviously from quality cuts. My housemates both went for roast lamb and there was no scrimping on the accompaniments either. In fact,

to sample some of the desserts too, so munched on carrot cake, peanut butter cheesecake and chocolate fudge cake. After

supping on a couple of glasses of red wine, we left to brave the snowstorm with a wonderful warm glow.

Make your own school dinners!

Still harking back to the days of school dinners?

Well reminisce no longer and make them yourself at home, as a chef, together with the headteacher, from a Charlton school have brought out their own recipe book.

Chef Flavio Hernandez and headteacher Tim Baker, of Charlton Manor School, co-wrote The School Chef because pupils kept asking how they made the

laura@weekender.co.uk /

dishes they loved for school lunch.

The book contains 22 recipes which are used for the most popular meals at the school.

But gone are the days of piles of chips and stodgy jam roly poly and custard, as the book contains recipes for healthy meals.

The 80 page book's recipes include wraps, soups, cheese whirls, orange cake and super seedy flapjacks.

There's even a foreword by

celebrity chef Raymond Blanc.

“The cook book is made for families and it’s a good way for families to get together, cook together and have a great time,” said Flavio.

“The recipes are not very complicated and are quite easy to make, it also explains how to make your own tomato sauce and stock.”

Headteacher Tim Baker said: “We are very pleased with the result, it’s a wonderful book full

of recipes and ideas on how to cook good healthy food together at home.”

The School Chef costs £15.

ecember brings around 8 hours of light each day; and with low cloud it often seems much less. But the Solstice falls on Thursday 21st December - when winter officially begins!

After this time it will gradually get lighter.

Most plant growth will be at a standstill for the next couple of months, but it depends what is in your garden as to how much work there is to be done!

Check fruit trees for diseases such as canker. To deter winter moth attach grease bands to the trunks of apple trees. If you are the proud owner of a Fig tree – remove all immature fruits (they will not grow/ripen) leave anything smaller than a bean to develop for next year. From November to March new fruit trees/bushes and ornamental shrubs can be planted. General tidying and clearing leaves is always needed. If you are not using hanging baskets for winter displays empty and store until

next season. Don’t forget to feed the wild birds; clean feeders and water bowls thoroughly with Citrox disinfectant (available from www.organiccatalogue.com) to limit the spread of disease.

Citrox can also be used to clean garden pots, tools etc.

Flowers will be largely missing from the garden; but there are seasonal shrubs in bloom – usually Hebe and winter Jasmine. Colour mostly comes from evergreens and the dazzling array of shrub berries.

Seasonal interest for window boxes can be achieved from a mix of evergreens such as dwarf conifers, Hebe pinguifolia Pagei (attractive blue-green leaves and little white flowers in spring) herbs such as Rosemary prostratus, miniature daffodils plus Primroses.

Attention also turns to seasonal indoor plants – Hyacinths, Amaryllis, Christmas cactus and winter cherry.

Hyacinth bulbs are specially prepared to flower around Christmastime; they give a

Choosing Christmas gifts for the gardener is not always easy; books are usually welcome and there are hundreds available on every aspect of horticulture.
