CogitoErgoBake: @Charliecondou @RealBread I'm still trying to get to grips with it, to be honest. Structure still isn't perfect. I'll probs go on a course.

Charliecondou: @CogitoErgoBake @RealBread I might go on a course too*  (*buy some from Waitrose)

RealBread: @Charliecondou @CogitoErgoBake easy to get the basics, followed by as long as you like on a personal search for perfection..whatever that is

CogitoErgoBake: @RealBread @Charliecondou Perfect = Big, ol' air holes and a crust that crackles as it cools.

PIE IN THE SKY: 

THE MYSTERY OF PIKEY

Above: Charlie Condou as Karl Elves in Pie In The Sky: "The Mystery Of Pikey."

Synopsis:

Whilst vulgar businessman Barry Wilkes and his family are eating at Pie in the Sky, his house is robbed. Barry and other worthies are convinced that this - and other crimes - are down to local bad boy Karl 'Pikey' Elves, but Henry is not persuaded that the boy acted alone and sets out to prove he had inside help. Henderson and Steve, meanwhile, are more concerned with catching pike than Pikey.

MIDSOMER MURDERS: 

BANTLING BOY

Below: Charlie Condou and John Nettles working in Midsomer Murders: "Bantling Boy." 

Synopsis:

The champion racehorse Bantling Boy was bequeathed to a four-man syndicate by the late Lord Hartley of Bantling Hall. The members are Bruce Hartley, his son, Dr. John Osgood, his doctor, Trevor Machin, his gardener and Joanna Craxton, his nurse. After a successful day at the races, millionaire Sam Tate offers £500,000 for Bantling Boy, but Bruce angrily attacks him, wanting to keep him. Joanna and Trevor are desperate to sell Bantling Boy to clear up their debts, but Bruce and Osgood are equally keen to keep. Seeing as the syndicate needs a complete agreement for any action to be taken, the meeting reaches a tense stalemate. Bruce defiantly declares that Bantling Boy will be sold over "My dead body!" On a top 10 list of things not to say in Midsomer, that must rank pretty high. After insulting his mother, uncle, wife and an embittered jockey, Bruce visits Bantling Boy's stable, where he is struck over the head with a hammer by an unseen assailant and killed. Barnaby and Scott investigate the syndicate, and Osgood implies that the group doesn't just own a horse, but protects something else. However, before he can divulge more, Osgood is killed in a similar manner to Bruce, except this time a pedant cloth is wrapped around his mouth like a gag. Who was it trying to 'shut him up'? Barnaby realises Osgood's murder emulates the crest of Bantling Hall, the hammer and pedant. Barnaby finally makes the connection between the murders, but can he unmask the vengeful, psychotic killer in time?

Coincidently, both programs mentioned above have been on Australian free-to-air television in the past week.  If you would like more information on either show please use the search facility on the top left of this blog page - Tom.

The Pink List 2013:

There’s still time to nominate the most influential lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender people in Britain by emailing pinklist@independent.co.uk or going to www.independent.co.uk/pinklist2013. We've had more than 1,000 nominations already, and lines close at midnight Sunday 6th Oct.
Just released:
"It's OK to be gay"

Val McDermid,

Nigel Owens

and Charlie Condou 

share their coming out stories

Funny, moving and inspiring, the reminiscences of gay people are collected in a new book which, says Katy Guest, can change lives

Evan Davis, the economist and presenter of Radio 4’s Today programme, came out to his parents over Christmas dinner in his twenties, but wishes that he had done it much sooner. Alice Arnold, the broadcaster, knew she was a lesbian the first time that she felt “tummy flips”. Being gay is “maybe the 47th most interesting thing” in the life of comedian and presenter Sue Perkins. They, and others, tell their “coming out” stories in a new book, It’s OK to be Gay, (Accent, £10.99) edited by Alison Stokes and published on Thursday in support of Diversity Role Models. The charity works to stop homophobic bullying in schools and provide positive voices in the fight against homophobia. Launched in time for National Coming Out Day, the book is a collection of inspirational stories from well-known figures including entertainers, journalists, a Paralympian and a peer of the realm. The following are extracts from the book.

Next week, alongside the Pink List 2013, we will publish the coming out stories of Evan Davis and Shelley Silas.
