Hullo, viewers – Thin White Duke here. This month saw the opening of a new gallery in Kingsbridge called Red Propeller. Some 150 movers and shakers turned up to the launch party and were apparently suitably impressed. We dug the super-glossy work by Louise Dear, while Mrs PRSD seemed more preoccupied with the statues of naked blokes. Go figure.

Oh, the shame of Devon. None of it, let alone us paragons of environmental virtue (we wish) here in South Devon, has been able to muster up a finalist in this year’s RegenSW green awards. Don’t be deluded. Just because Exeter Open Studios is only taking place over two days (Saturday, November 4 and Sunday, November 5) doesn’t mean it isn’t part of the whole Nine Days of Art stable, which has seen events in Teignbridge, West Devon, and the South Hams. SAY HULLO TO: Full Speed Alone Who can turn their nose up at a new free magazine promoting art, culture and events in the Exeter area? Well we certainly can’t (how the heck else do you expect us to get any stories?) That’s why we’re waiting, with breath a-baited for the first edition of Stitch, a new, free magazine promoting art, Folk is this year’s ska, or the new black, take your pick, and with so much to protest about there’s little wonder. But leave those boats out of Liverpool behind and take a dip into non-purist folktronica with the final date of the Twisted Folk Tour at the Exeter Phoenix on October 29 at an Follow the main cinema links for dates, times and matinee screenings. PLYMOUTH ARTS CENTRE The Passenger (PG) Starring Jack Nicholson’s eyebrows, this is a little-seen gem from genius director (or at least he used to be – don’t get us started) Michelangelo ‘Call Me Mike’ Antonioni. It’s not sleazy! It’s not sleazy! Thank goodness. Now you can watch In Praise of Fallen Women, a ‘humorous, poignant, innovative and irreverant’ history of all those in the sex trade, without worrying. And visually it promises much in terms of communication – with spoken word, projections and with someone doing British Sign Language, the You wanna feel like a prince? You wanna get carted around from pillar to post and fancy an environmental alternative to a taxi – presuming of course you left the Hummer at home. Well, as long as you travel around Exeter you can. Are there any 11-15 year olds in the People’s Republic who want to get involved in drama? Course there are – and now they bally-well can. Roots In Drama, starting on Wednesday, November 1 at the Barbican Theatre, Plymouth, is about exploring different drama styles and techniques, looking at the link between dance and drama through Oxfam and Pulse Rated Radio are organisations after our own heart. The two are collaborating to provide an opportunity for local bands and raise dosh to save lives, improve conditions and generally do all that stuff that Oxfam is good at. |

Hooray for the blackshirts (book)
Apparently, Plymouth used to be the fascist capital of the South West, with some 1,500 local people joining the British Union of Fascists party.
