Greywing to the rescue! Timothy Spall stars as the world’s most inept superhero…
‘He slipped effortlessly into his super sleek costume… oh, how come their tights never wrinkle in the comics?’Bludden-On-Sand better buckle up as there is a new hero in town! Frustrated furniture fitter Nigel Struddock (Timothy Spall), with the help of a sewing machine, creates an alter ego: ‘Greywing’ - a local caped crusader determined to fight evil and bring justice wherever he can. He’s got the mask and the cape, but where’s the crime?! Every superhero needs an arch enemy and soon dastardly ice cream tycoon, Benny Leake (Bernard Hill) appears on the scene to be Greywing’s.Cheer for the hapless hero as he battles to stop villainous Benny Leake''s sabotage plan, if only he can get the ice cream van to go fast enough. Local dramas come thick and fast for the gormless Greywing; dead fish are washed up on the beach and a funfair big wheel gets out of control. If that wasn’t enough, Nigel’s superhero alter-ego must jump into action at a dole office siege and things get tricky when his dastardly nemesis hires a heavy to dispose of him. Is our hero''s number up? Surely not? Greywing to the rescue!A stellar line up of actors star in Simon Bullivant’s wonderfully hilarious comedy.

The Bumper Book of Slightly Forgotten British Olympians and Other Sporting Heroes is just that: a collection of stirring tales of pluck, grit, triumph, disaster and on occasion, ineptitude, featuring a host of former sportspeople who''ve been utterly forgotten by history.From Maude Waveney, the plucky servant girl who bravely took half a day off work scrubbing kitchen floors to win a gold medal folding bedsheets in the first London games, to Tom Drake, Dressage''s first punk, who shocked the sport with his slashed jacket and swear words on his hat.There''s the tale of the Lincolnshire javelin thrower who fell under the spell of a cult devoted to the eating of egg and chips; of the mascot of Bexhill-on-Sea''s ill fated bid to host the Olympics and "Ample" Arthur Cartwright, whose football career was blighted by an obsession with archaeology.They, and many others, all have a story to tell.
