Motionplymouth deadline

We all know that the (more middle-aged) navigators of the good ship PRSD love a little bit of disco pop. And it is for them that we point out the cheery little number that is on D+CFilm at the moment.

It is for the rest of us to take note that tomorrow is the closing date

The LunchBox # 1

In the same week that Gordon Brown ditched his pretensions to socialism by glad-handing Lady Thatcher at 10 Downing Street, I became aware of the existence of a group called the Socialist Health Association.

According to their website, the SHA exists to: ‘promote health and well-being, social justice, and the eradication of inequalities, through the application

All that jazz

Here at the PRSD, we’re quite keen on turning human tragedy into entertainment – add singing, dancing and jazz hands and we’re sold. Our high-kicking, board-stepping reporter Marika Visser took a look at Chicago, coming to Torquay’s Princess Theatre next week. Here’s what she said:

Now you’re Talking

Remember we told you about Talking Liberties – a rather excellent bloggy site with a winning line in righteous outrage? You know, the site that gave a Mendacity Award to the Plymouth Herald’s Tristan Nichols?!

Well, from Saturday, the person behind Talking Liberties, is gonna be scribbling a weekly column for PRSD.

Yes, there may be no

All included

Oh, how we’d like to be bring you the exclusive on the new word on inclusion – but it seems it’s already on the Open Hearts Open Minds site.

Billing itself as ‘a fresh perspective on how to make a difference’ and saying there’s ’something for everyone, whether inclusive working is written large in your job

Eyes have it

To tie in with last week’s opening of Tarantino’s Death Proof, Nucleus Films
has released Grindhouse Trailer Classics – a two-hour DVD compilation of cheesy, sleazy and violent movie promos and trailers from the golden age of exploitation cinema.

Flip over to D+CFilm to watch the trailer for They Call Her One Eye. That’s not very politically

Trophyism

You may remember that last year the People’s Republic of South Devon was up for a Plymouth Media Partnership Innovation Award. You don’t? Well let’s not dwell on our past failure (the winner of our category was the stonking Plymouth Music Zone, who we would have lobbied for had we not been bigging ourselves up).

Keleher wins

Remember last year’s Art Farm Project? Sure you do – sour milk, piles of Wellies, et al. Well, one of those who was part of that show has gone on to win the Exeter Contemporary Open (eco). Anna Keleher’s Evolutionary Space images picked up the cash and the plaudits

Organised by the Exeter Phoenix, this show

Aaron Custance

Just one of the images by Aaron Custance in his show at Moretonhampstead.

‘I am drawing attention to the need for a ‘renaissance humain’ by painting the good, the bad and the ugly of our times. This includes themes like Venus, by Boticelli, 9/11, and local ‘good’ characters,’ he told us here at the PRSD.

Allez ons

Vive le Revolution!

The new term of the Alliance Francaise d’Exeter et Dartington rolls into action tomorrow. As ever, we at the PRSD are keen to celebrate our multi-culturalism, and with the Alliance putting on events about les Surréalists and le shopping, maybe it’s not as hard as UKIP would have you believe.

Peace day

Did you know it was Peace Day yesterday? Well, we did, and we, err, still forgot, despite the Thin White Duke’s best efforts. Just so you don’t forget again (etch it into your Blueberry now), here are a few Peace Day facts.

Founded in 1999 by do-gooder filmmaker Jeremy Gilley, Peace One Day is an
