They learn that the Church stopped its support and will sell the place to the education authority and the only way to keep the place open is if the tax on the property is paid within 11 days.

    Mystery buffs will find Hetty Wainthropp to be delightful and uniquely entertaining company. Hetty has just turned 60, but she is not about to "ride serene into the evening tide," as her doting husband so poetically puts it. "I'm not 60 and I never will be," Hetty proclaims. "I'm not a senior citizen." Hetty wants to matter, so she gets a job at her local Lancashire post office. But that wouldn't make for much of a miniseries. Before you can say "cheeky monkey," she has involved herself in a deadly case of pension-fund fraud, and made a splash on the front pages as a "Super Gran Sleuth." The redoubtable Patricia Routledge, best known as Hyacinth Bucket on the beloved Keeping Up Appearances), does lovely work as Hetty, who first appeared in David Cook's 1986 novel, Missing Persons (Cook co-wrote the six first-season episodes contained here). Hetty is not as quaint as Miss Marple, nor her cases as seamy as Jane Tennison's Prime Suspect mysteries. She is a formidable character in her own right, opening her own private detective agency, and recruiting a 17-year-old shoplifter (Dominic Monaghan from the Lord of the Rings trilogy) to be her "devoted sidekick." A rogue cop, a roving arsonist, and other unsavory characters are no match for the woman who won't rest until things add up. As one police inspector grudgingly admits, "She's an extraordinary woman. She's no Miss Marple, but..." But, indeed. --Donald Liebenson

    The Pantomime 'Dick Whittington' has been in rehearsals at the Grand Theatre Lancaster for a number of weeks and tonight is the first night. A full dress rehearsal has been called before curtain up and tensions are beginning to show. Producer DI (Sam Spiro) is keen for the show to be a success - it's a tough time in regional theatre and by taking the part of the fairy she is anxious to realise her lofty ambitions. Director Francis (Mark Benton) tries valiantly to pull the show to order in spite of DI's constant interfering. Lewis Loud (John Bishop) Morecambe FM's cheeky DJ has his stage debut in the part of Jack the Lad. During rehearsals romance has blossomed between him and Tamsin (Sheridan Smith) who is principal boy Dick. Tamsin is a celebrity - recently appearing as Mad Mindy the Axe murderer from the Nation's favourite soap. Lewis is genuinely fond of Tamsin and realises his own career path may take an upward turn if their relationship continues. So when Lewis's son Paul (Daniel Bishop) is unexpectedly delivered to the stage door by ex-wife Gina (Kaye Wragg) Lewis realises that he must take his fatherly duties seriously. Not easy when you're surrounded by a faded theatrical actor Johnny Darby (Michael Cochrane) playing the part of Dolly the Cook Chantelle (Ami Metcalf) the nervous mis-cast love interest of Dick and Alderman Fitzwarren (Chesney Hawkes) accident-prone good guy trying hard to show that he has more to his musical repertoire than 'The One and Only'.

  • Down By Law [1986]Down By Law | DVD | (31/03/2007) from £N/A   |  Saving you £N/A (N/A%)   |  RRP £15.99

    Jim Jarmusch's Down by Law is in the same minimalist, oddball, black-and-white groove as his classic of American independent cinema, Stranger than Paradise (1984). The setting is Louisiana, where two losers (musicians Tom Waits and John Lurie) find themselves stuck in a jail cell together. One day they are joined by a boisterous Italian (Roberto Benigni), and the chemistry changes--suddenly an escape attempt is on the horizon. Conventional drama is not Jarmusch's intention; one of the emotional high points of this film is the three guys marching around their prison cell shouting, "I scream, you scream, we all scream for ice cream!" Yet the deadpan style creates its own humorous mood, underscored by melancholy (also underscored by the music of Lurie and the gravel-voiced songs of Waits). This was the first American film for Italian comedian Benigni, (Life is Beautiful), and he lights it up with his effervescent clowning. Jarmusch has said that Down by Law forms a loose trilogy with Stranger than Paradise and the subsequent Mystery Train (1989)--a triptych of disaffected, drifting life in the United States. Few filmmakers have ever surveyed ennui so entertainingly. --Robert Horton, Amazon.com

    The Very Best of Dad's Army, Vol 2 is a further helping of episodes from the BBC's most durable comedy, well chosen to illustrate the variety of situations and predicaments in which Warmington-on-Sea's home guard find themselves. "Menace from the Deep" sees them marooned on the town pier, having to contend with a rogue mine and an inebriated Hodges. "Mum's Army" has Captain Mainwaring set up a women's division and promptly fall for the charming Miss Gray, in a cunning take on Brief Encounter. "No Spring for Frazer" charts Frazer's beleaguered attempts to locate a missing gun part with predictably disastrous results. "When Did You Last See Your Money?" similarly puts Corporal Jones through the mill after he switches a package containing £500 with one containing a half-pound of sausages. Finally, "The Honourable Man" brings the enmity of Mainwaring and Sergeant Wilson to a head when the latter inherits an honorary title. The performances have that spontaneity and gently self-mocking humour so familiar, yet so enjoyable, however many times around. On the DVD: The Very Best of Dad's Army, Vol 2 on disc has an accompanying documentary (partially reprised from that on Volume 1) containing interviews with surviving cast members, present-day comedians and Messrs Croft and Perry, whose inspired scriptwriting continues to amuse and entertain. The early-70s prints have come up well, with subtitles and six chapter headings per episode to make locating favourite scenes easier than ever. --Richard Whitehouse
