Tuppence Middleton chooses Stig of the Dump by Clive King published by Puffin Books 1963 More about this book: Stig Of The Dump was rejected by a great many publishers until it was picked up by the legendary children's editor Kay Webb, of Puffin Books who said it was one of the books she was proudest of publishing. Since 1963 it has sold millions of copies. And it's the one that's probably closest to it’s author Clive King (1924 – 2018) himself; long before recycling was fashionable he loved to pick up bits and pieces that other people...

From Kitchen Discos to quizzing, background noise and clutter to the imposed order of working, and Toblerone treats. There is method in the madness and this conversation proves that finding the calm to be creative doesn’t rely on neatness and organisation. Life is indeed one big confidence tr...

Understanding Gender with Dr. Alex Iantaffi
A generation ago, few people thought much about understanding gender. Then, gender seemed simple and straightforward: boy or girl, male or female. Things are different today. Merriam-Webster declared they the 2019 word of the year, and there's increasing recognition of the fact that gender is not strictly binary. What does this have to do with boys? Well, our boys are living in a time when it's okay to openly discuss and think about gender. Many of our boys have peers who self-identify as gender-fluid or genderqueer -- and even if they don't have personal friends or acquaintances who are navigating the g...

Touch Of Evil
In the most logical move in film history, Charlton Heston plays a Mexican (cue the hilarity!) in our 103rd Next 100 Project endeavour. He’s actually pretty good and Janet Leigh is also strong in a difficult role. Orson Welles outdoes ’em all though as an extremely corrupt cop…and also as the film’s brilliant director. This was a B movie when it came out, but it has become a noir classic. Technical marvel though it is, the story is a puzzle (which is both a compliment and a criticism).
