There couldn’t be a more fitting reintroduction to the world of Brighton’s Tall Ships than ‘Road Not Taken’, the slow-burning opener to Impressions, their second full-length album - released early 2017 via FatCat Records. Rooted in the idea of facing a fork in the road, the four-piece’s frontman Ric Phethean describes the track - which draws its title from Robert Frost’s poem The Road Not Taken - as tackling “the consequences of our choices and actions, and the regrets that come with them;”striving to “make the most of the moment, as it’s the only thing you’ve got any control over.”

Passenger est le nom du projet mené aux accents intimistes d'indie pop folkisante par l'auteur-compositeur-interprète britannique Mike Rosenberg. Initialement composé par quatre musiciens, Passenger voit le jour à Brighton sous la forme d'une collaboration entre Rosenberg et Andrew Philips dont naît un premier opus en 2007, Wicked Man's rest. Mais Philips quitte le navire, laissant Rosenberg seul aux commandes du projet pour lui livrer un successeur en 2009, Wide Eyes Blind Love, reflétant cette nouvelle incarnation via un son plus dépouillé et acoustique. En 2010, c'est Flight of the Crow qui voit le jour, suivi par un plus charnu All the Little Lights en 2013 puis Whispers en 2014.

Historian Ruth Goodman and archaeologists Alex Langlands and Peter Ginn face up to the challenges of the biggest revolution ever seen in the history of the British countryside as they turn Manor Farm back to how it was run in the Second World War. When Britain entered the war, two-thirds of all Britain's food was imported - and now it was under threat from a Nazi blockade. To save Britain from starvation, the nation's farmers were tasked with doubling food production in what Churchill called 'the frontline of freedom'. This meant ploughing up 6.5 million acres of unused land - a combined area bigger than the whole of Wales.

In the First World War – the Great War of 1914-1918 – the Canadian Corps had covered itself in glory and by 1918 gained a reputation as the fiercest, most deadly Allied fighting force on the Western Front. A generation later, in the Second World War, the Canadians faced tasks demanding of all guts but offering little glory. Undaunted, they fought bravely, often desperately, in crucial but unglamorous campaigns – campaigns now largely forgotten.

Join bestselling action-adventure author Clive Cussler, renowned maritime archaeologist James Delgado, and their crack team of divers to explore some of the most significant shipwrecks of World War II. Visit the remnants of an aircraft carrier made entirely of ice, probe the world's deadliest maritime disaster, survey the relics of D-Day, and more. Rather than looking for treasure, the Sea Hunters seek only to complete the historical record. Besides delving deep into each site's history, you'll sit in on prep sessions as the team struggles with the technical challenges of their dives. Then you'll see exactly what they see, thanks to dramatic underwater camerawork. And in each episode, you'll hear exclusive interviews with survivors, witnesses, and other experts, bringing a human dimension to historical events. Seen on the National Geographic Channel.
