Nigel Molesworth, ‘the curse of St. Custard's’, was a much-loved post-war fictional schoolboy character who featured in a series of books by Geoffrey Willans and illustrated by Ronald Searle. The books also featured the headmaster Grimes, Nigel’s annoying younger brother Molesworth 2, his best friend Peason, the head boy Grabber and the school wet Fotherington-Thomas. Nigel’s main characteristic was his cynicism and in Nigel Molesworth’s Cynical Tendency he has, through the success of his YouTube channel The Cynical Tendency, started a Cynical Tendency political party and his school friends have all become heads of the main political parties. The play starts with a Prologue for those unfamiliar with the characters, and the action is then set just after a general election in the near future, the result of which was chaotic and all the players could possibly become Prime Minister but only with Nigel’s support. Nigel on the other hand…

Sophie Chang has been actively pursuing her artistic exploration in recent years. Her works incorporate Western painting style into the freehand style (or xieyi) of Chinese ink wash paintings, and integrate expressive use of colours into metaphysical spirituality. Chang has focused her studies on ink wash and calligraphy in recent years, and has employed the techniques of collage to merge Eastern subtleties of ink in her works with Western influences.Sophie Chang's artistic journey progresses from realistic imagery to spiritual abstract languages; and through her works she expresses her inner maturity and clarity ("a mountain seen remains a mountain being"). Ch'an philosophy looks through the land of the soulful heart, mirroring the spirit of compassion and universal love through years of life experiences.

Pepper the dachshund therapy dog sets off across the African Plains to cheer up the unhappy elephant Poncho. Along the way she meets a giraffe living with camels, survives a wildebeest stampede, makes friends with an aardvark, walks with a leopard through a valley of warthogs, befriends a vegan crocodile, swims with an inflatable hippopotamus, steals a picnic, avoids hungry lions, sprints with an ostrich and is charged by a bull elephant. And she hasn’t even met Poncho yet.

When in July 2024 the incoming Labour Government announced as one of its priorities to stop hereditary peers sitting and voting in the House of Lords, Unicorn's Chairman and backbench hereditary peer Lord Strathcarron decided to write about the political machinations involved in the Government trying to abolish him on the one hand, and the Opposition trying to foil abolition on the other. The result is an insider's guide to the workings of the Parliamentary process, with direct access to the movers and shakers involved, and a not always entirely complimentary commentary on the key players involved.

If there is a typical example of Annabel Fairfax’s oil painting, it is a bowl full of abstracted flowers and foliage, her bright bold brushstrokes and markings setting them apart from the mundane. Her watercolours of animal life and picturesque locations capture the moment and are painted with energy and freshness. In ‘Delightful, Enchanting’ Annabel Fairfax shows us the imaginative humour of her oil and watercolour paintings – from her travels around the world to the peaceful haven of her studio on the Isle of Wight. Her paintings are harmonious and decorative, the very opposite of photographic; she paints with her eyes, the subject matter becoming an idyllic version of reality. She exhibits regularly, is in private collections around the world and her work is frequently used for cards, prints and giftware.

Legend has it that the Andrea Moda Formula One team of 1992 was the worst Grand Prix team of all time. It was certainly shambolic, hopelessly unprepared, questionably funded and politically antagonistic. Almost in spite of itself, and by a discreet cheat, it did manage to qualify for that year’s Monaco Grand Prix and by the time the police arrested the owner for fraud at the Belgian Grand Prix, the worst-ever legend had been born. No so, argues the author Ian Strathcarron: it may have been awful, but there were worse and in Andrea Moda – The Legend and the Truth he not only rejoices and despairs at the story of Andrea Moda Formula but the other garagisti of the time: EuroBrun, Osella, Zakspeed, Onyx, Rial, Life, Coloni, AGS, Fondmetal and Larousse. As he concludes, it was certainly fun while it lasted.
