“In this exclusive talk Monty Halls reveals the story behind the filming of Channel 4’s hit series 'WWII’s Great Escapes - The Freedom Trails.’ Monty and the film crew trekked through some of the most dramatic terrain in Europe, following in the footsteps of servicemen and women attempting to escape Nazi occupation. The escapees were helped along the way they were helped by local people - at huge risk to themselves - and the series also met and interviewed the civilians, partisans and resistance fighters who made the trails a reality.”

“This week, we're thrilled to present master storyteller and standup, Sarah Bennetto, who is bringing her latest Edinburgh hour to the Lazy Dog: All My Life's Mistakes, Catalogued (Volume One). This show was a critical hit and audience favorite, and it would be a huge mistake for you to miss it. You don't make the mistakes. That's not your role here. You just show up, kick back and leave the mistakes to Sarah. You keep making great choices, like buying advance tickets right now.”
