There’s more poetry coming to the Exeter Picturehouse on Wednesday, July 25, when Alexis Lykiard will launch his latest poetry collection, Judging by Disappearances.
Already winning critical acclaim, the Exeter-based poet and novelist will be on hand to put his John Hancock on your copy as well as read extracts from the book.
The special launch party is free to enter and takes place in the bar between 7pm and 9pm.
But if you want the low-down on films, check out D+CFilm, for all the gen you would ever need.

Long before it became the latest high street ploy (tell that to Asda, Primark and Tesco), some companies were trying to ensure a fair deal for textile workers. One of these was Gossypium.
And those coolest of Lewes cats have offered readers of The People’s Republic of South Devon a chance to win one of their fine t-shirts.
All you have to do is email us the answer to this poser: Who’s the former Chancellor of the Exchequer? (Here’s a clue, it’s the current Prime Minister). Who says we don’t lift the bar of political involvement?
And do not fear, there will be no rigged telephone voting here. Just email info@peoplesrepublicofsouthdevon.co.uk with the subject line Gossypium (cool clothes competition is optional), and include the answer in the body of email. It’s that easy.
The first randomly chosen email with the correct answer will be the winner - if they’re all wrong, we’ll re-think. Oh, and the decision of the collective is final. The closing date is Friday, August 17.
In the meantime, have some solace in the extra special 10 per cent discount the nice Gossypium people have offered citizens of the republic. Just enter the word ‘republic’ on the checkout page and voila. If only everything were that simple.
