By Henry Austin 6th September, Marlborough Pub & Theatre 4 Princes Street, Brighton, East Sussex, BN2 1RD Strapped with a suicide vest, Jesus Christ’s method of martyrdom in the challenging production ‘I Am Mark’ is right up to date with those currently employed by religious extremists in parts the Middle East. The flat screen TV’s interspersed across the stage show intermittent messages delivered across them from the wild-eyed, increasingly frustrated, figure also echo the YouTube posts by Islamic State fighters in...
By Ayesha Vardag, President of London family law firm Vardags The label of divorce capital of the world has stuck definitively to the fashionable collars of our great city. London, of course, is celebrated for many things: its stunning historical architecture, the exquisite depth of its arts and culture scene, the indomitable pulse of its financial services industry. Yet, possibly contrary to first appearances, being the global centre of high-net-worth divorce is also an accolade that we should applaud. The...
By Charlotte Stringer, Style Editor at STYLIGHT.co.uk The roguish royal we can’t help but love, Prince Harry, is turning the big 3-0 this Monday (15th September). Upon his birthday he is due to receive, amongst other things, his mother, Princess Diana’s, wedding dress. The dress has gone down in history as an iconic piece and whilst Harry may not rank as high in the fashion stakes as his mother and sister-in-law, Kate, there is something incredibly endearing about the way...
By Carly Bryant We had already left it too late to eat, blood sugar levels were low and tensions were running high. Ill-advisedly we took the decision to walk the twenty minutes down the famous ‘Rye’ pub a site which just a few years ago would have been sneered at by London’s well-heeled, which is now one-in one-out on a Sunday lunch among the East Dulwich/Nunhead/Peckham set. With its large garden - complete with miniature (that’s the operative word) boule’s...
By Anna Power @KitNapz In Two Days, One Night we are taken on a Homeric Odyssey of sorts. The Dardenne Brothers (Rosetta, The Kid with a Bike) are masters of subtlety, telling simple stories about ordinary working class people, which reveal more about us as human beings, than thought possible. Here we encounter Sandra (Marion Cotillard) a blue-collar worker, emerging from a severe bout of clinical depression, only to be told that her job is no longer viable, an unfathomable...
By Samuel Hurley, Senior Marketing Executive at Kurve Digital Marketing “There is no time for cut-and-dried monotony. There is time for work. And time for love. That leaves no other time.” It may sound grand to kick off an article about 2014's best creative content tools with an inspirational quote from fashion revolutionary Coco Chanel but, if you're not feeling inspired by your content, you're taking the wrong approach. There's simply no more time for cookie-cutter, paint-by-number web content if...
Sport News 24/7 By Henry Austin Bit early you might say, a shade pessimistic. After all, it’s only September. Surely you can’t bring up the dreaded R word already. Maybe it is a little hasty, but as we resume against Sheffield Wednesday, we can hardly say we’ve had a good start to the season. Two wins, scraped in extra-time against lower league opposition in the Capital One Cup and one draw, albeit against a strong Nottingham Forest side in the...
By Jonathan Hatchman Perhaps most renowned for his rapid take upon classic meals, prepared and presented with extreme simplicity, constricted to a budget of time and money: Jamie Oliver has become a household name over the past fifteen years, as well as one of the globe's most celebrated celebrity chefs. However, with his more recent penchant for managing to compress the preparation of four sustainable meals into the space of just sixty minutes, the food on offer at Oliver's home...
By Michael Duffy The vulnerable Muslims of Burma, Bangladesh, Assam and Gujarat and Ahmadabad and Kashmir, have a new saviour, one that has been two years in the making, Al-Qaeda chief Ayman al-Zawahiri’s recent announcement of a new affiliate Al-Qaeda in the Indian Subcontinent (AQIS) came with little fanfare, but its implications, particularly for India, are disconcerting. Reportedly comprised of various mujahedeen from the Indian subcontinent it’s aims, as expected, are similar to those of its parent organisation, to wage...
