The Tiny Arms of Seigfried Velodrome


Carl Brah


Brah’s latest historical offering tells of the discovery of a set of miniature pistols in the Seigfried Farnon memorial velodrome in Thirsk. Brah’s greatest creation, the historio-physicist, Nigel Lahst, discovers they belonged to none other than the legendary pirate, Blue Peter. Does his ghost still haunt the wheels of anyone who dares ride their bicycle round and round a slopy oval? Two deaths, a series of broken chains and a load of dubloons lead the way to the truth...


“Believe me, I never get into bed without a Brah. Hello.” Mark Lawson, Front Row, Gaumont Cinema, Stepney


Mitchell and Webb’s Road Trip


Designer of the spitfire, Reginald Mitchell and composer of “Galveston” and “Macarthur Park”, Jimmy Webb team up for this hilarious once-in-a-lifetime road trip around the castles and follies of Great Britain. Told in extracts from their diaries it offers an enlightening and sometimes touching story of two men who were worlds apart being drawn together by their shared love of Crenellated battlements.
