» Review: Regency Society Lecture

Brighton historian Nicholas Antram’s talk made a passionate case for celebrating four local Brighton architects who created our urban environment. Edmund Scott, whose St. Bartholomew’s Church was declared by Pevsner to be one of the most outstanding examples of ecclesiastical architecture in the world; Thomas Lainson and his two sons as witnessed by the Brighton Synagogue, the Italianate style of the Sillwood Road terraces and the picturesque Royal Alexandra Hospital: Clayton and Black, represented by the swirling turrets of Gwdyr Mansions in Hove; finally, Thomas Simpson and Sons whose legacy remains visible in Brighton schools and public buildings Instructive and entertaining: terrific stuff.

» 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.
