Daisy Markham sits in her kitchen glaring at a tin of Mulligatawny soup on the top shelf. Even though she’s 102 years old; she isn’t going to let three small steps stop her. She’s even straightened a coat hanger to help her hook the tin off the shelf.
If only those rotten useless carers would stop trying to help her…
Prejudge and stereotypes are an unfortunate part of our world and can be hard to avoid. So let’s confront them directly and whilst we’re doing that, why don’t we play a little game together and see if we all share the same little petty viewpoints about people we know nothing about?
The rules are simple. We’re going to play four different games of ‘Guess Who’. However, rather than try to guess someone based on their physical attributes, we’re going to try and guess them using non-physical attributes. Things people think; things people do. These are the questions we’ll need to answer together

For centuries man has been fascinated by stories and once in a while, when the stars align, out of the rich tapestry of yarns comes a legend. This is The Legend of Nic and Joe!
Nic Bowden and Joe Lister-Streep play Joe Lister-Streep and Nic Bowden; two struggling sitcom writers with a deadline to meet, but a severe case of writer’s block. This is hardly surprising though as most of their time is spent becoming embroiled in a series of hair-brained schemes, meeting a plethora of colourful characters and indulging in a spot of casual violence. It’s wacky, it’s fun, it’s crazy, it’s outrageous. It’s about 30 minutes too long…
During World War Two, Portugal remained neutral. Many of the people who found themselves there had little choice as to where they might live, work or even survive. Among those who had had little choice, was Alexander Alekhine, the World Chess Champion.
