» Review: Artichoke Presents Show Off

A totally professional and hugely original show immaculately performed by a bunch of talented kids who I fully expect to see on TV in a few years – maybe less! It’s invidious to pick out stars anytime but just because it’s kids I won’t be patronising. Every movement that actress/dancer Imogen Meston made had drama, and her starring performance in ‘Somerhill’, Wasp Video’s video for The Miserable Rich, showed she is a star already. I’ve never seen a truer representation of real Brighton. No gangsters, no sleaze, no club music, no hype but riveting to watch. Brighton’s got talent.

    I’m so sad to have missed these performances. From all I have heard they were fantastic.
    As one of the sponsors I feel so proud to have made a contribution to the awesome Artichoke group.
    Next year I will endeavour to make the long trip from Chile as I know I won’t be dissapointed

» Brighton Lights 31

Our new programme for thelatest.tv sees Juice FM presenter Guy Lloyd investigate all manner of things. He starts off with chart-topping band The Hoosiers who were mega-successful a couple of years ago, were dropped by their major label and have become fashionably independent. Their chart-topping album cost £1 million to record, their new album £100 and we reckon it's just as good. We have exclusive footage of this new record. Guy does crazy-golfing with them, checks out their sound-check and witnesses the fans' adoration of the band at Audio in Brighton. In future shows Guy will be doing waxing, Dot Cotton, air guitar and needs your suggestions for more crazy things (or people) to do. Send to bill@thelatest.co.uk

» Artists Open Houses

AOH Special: It’s Festival time in Brighton & Hove, which means the Artists Open Houses have opened their doors for another year! Maps of all the trails can be picked up across the city. We love nothing better than browsing and buying arts and crafts, and there is so much going on throughout May that we’ve made it easier by bringing the Artists Open Houses to you! We have 11 special programmes, featuring artists in their own houses. So here’s your chance to go ‘through the keyhole’ so to speak as we visit the artists in their own environment.
