THE-SMYTHS

2 ‘Strangeways Here We Come’ is the album The Smiths never got to play live. Released after the band had split, one can only guess at what a gig on a Strangeways Tour would have been. Guess no more as tribute band The Smyths take us to what might’ve been in 1987/88.

Steve-Bugeja

6 Steve Bugeja is a quirky socially-awkward amiable comedian, cut from the same kind of cloth as Jon Richardson. A BBC New Comedy Award winner, his shows are personal stories that give you a glimpse as to how he became the person that he is today – and ‘Summer Camp’ is no exception. Peppered with laughs, Bugeja’s teenage summer as a counsellor on an American camp is touching, honest and a coming of age treat.
