You might think I've taken a departure from the wine chats by not talking to a winemaker for today's chat. Quite the contrary. For most of us, the restaurant setting is where we get our best exposure to wines we may not have heard of or tried before. The beverage selection is an important income earner for any hospitality joint and the restaurant is an important customer for our beverage producing pals. With such genuine simpatico it seems only right that we include those hard-grafting hospo heroes in the chats to get their not serious take on wine too. If you live under a rock, you may not know Chef Josh Emett. For the rest of us, he's the familiar face from the MasterChef tele show, he's the Chef who shares social media reels of cooking in his home kitchen, he's written a couple of cracking cookbooks and he's the kiwi done good having earned himself a top international accolade or two alongside folks like Gordon Ramsay. The anchor to all that action is Helen Emett. She's one astute, highly motivated woman with a fierce vision for good business and a major funny bone. She's a hoot and she's the perfect candidate for a Not Serious chat but believe me when I say she's bloody serious about getting a dining room perfect and executing extraordinary service in the restaurants she and Josh now own together. You will have likely seen Helen working the floor at Onslow Restaurant and now Gilt Brasserie. These two are grafters and they're givers. They took the time, on a busy Monday morning to sit down and share some stories about their journey and how wine for them, and a sweet cocktail here and there, adds the seasoning to their well-travelled lives. It was a pleasure to sit down in the divine dining room of Onslow for this chat. The kitchen was in full prep mode which you'll sometimes hear! If you haven't been to Onslow yet, go. And because Covid taught these two nothing, you'll also find them at their new spot, Gilt on Chancery Lane. So, pop your napkin on your lap, pour yourself a sparkling antipodes and grab the knife and fork. This is the Not Serious Helen and Josh Emett chat. not serious wine chats would like to thank our supporters:TradecraftBy the BottleAntipodes Water Co. Special thanks to my pal, Benj Brooking of Popular.nz for his help with the editing. An expert filmmaker, editing these chats is being done as one mate helping another. Thanks Benj! join the chatinstagram | facebookIf you're struggling to put that glass down, perhaps our chats aren't the right ear candy for you. While the chats are not serious, living your best life is a very serious matter indeed and a life fuelled by addiction doesn't sound dreamy at all.

Robbo, Johnno, and Eugene have been teasing their listeners for months about an upcoming announcement and now it's time to let it loose - Slogging it! Walk the Ashes. It was Robbo's idea and we are excited to formally announce it. We discuss why we're doing it, where we're doing it, and how the you guys as listeners can get involved. We also discuss Robbo's strange habit of thinking of 19 songs about respect before their podcast starts. The challenge is to walk from one Ashes venue to the next, which has even caught the attention of our great friend Toby Tarrant, but Eugene's meniscus has been causing him trouble, so we're monitoring his situation as time progresses. Regardless, the challenge will go ahead and everyone is looking forward to it. The walk consists of five test matches and is roughly 670 miles long. It will take place over 22 days, starting on June 12th at Tavs HQ in Chancery Lane, London and ending at Tavs HQ on roughly July 31st. The purpose of the walk is to raise money for the Lord's Taverners and to empower young people with disabilities or from disadvantaged backgrounds through cricket. We will be posting updates on social media and will have a text-to-give code and a different JustGiving page. There is plenty of chat about how you guys can get involved and also help us to make this dream a great success! Plus all the usual nonsense from three muppets who love cricket and doing things for charity! Slog on!
The Corporation Of The City Of London• City of London, municipal corporation and borough, London, England. Sometimes called “the Square Mile,” it is one of the "33" boroughs that make up the large metropolis of Greater London. The borough lies on the north bank of the River Thames between the Temple Bar memorial pillar (commemorating the old Temple Bar gate) and the base of Tower Hill. The City Corporation is Britain's oldest local government; it has the status of a county, with powers that exceed those of London's "32" other boroughs, notably the control of its own police force. “The City,” as it is known, is only a component, relatively small in area, of the larger urban area known as London. Its area corresponds closely to that of the ancient city from which modern London has grown. The City belongs geographically to the historic county of Middlesex, but its special status and privileges gave it autonomy from that county for most of its history. Britannica The Latin motto of the City is Domine dirige nos, which translates as "Master, direct (guide) us". It appears to have been adopted in the 17th century, as the earliest record of it is in 1633. A banner of the arms (the design on the shield) is flown as a flag of the City. 14 dragon statues guarding the city of London. Many other depictions of Dragons adorn various buildings. Some inside, & some on the outer structure. Two at the main gates of the city. The crest of the city has the two dragons with the white shield and a Red Cross, & sword. The cross, & sword resemble upside down crosses. The official explanation says the crest is an homage to St. George was depicted in a fictional story saving a princess from a dragon. The story was loosely based on St. George being a Templar Knight, & is often depicted in armor riding a stallion. The Knight's Templar flags were also white with red crosses. https://londonist.com/london/secret/dragon Must Watch!

Not to mention, a tax haven, & overseer of other British-controlled tax havens like the Cayman Islands, Jersey, Guernsey, the Isle of Man, the BVI, Gibraltar, & Bermuda.

Also, remember that one other other main hubs for The Templars was in Switzerland. Still famous for its banks. Not to mention, suspiciously the home of the Bank For International Settlements. Explain BIS. Like the Templars, the Corporation of The City Of London is exempt from laws that others have to go by. The connections are too much to ignore.

Freemasonry is predominant in the square mile. The honorable Lord Mayor of the city is closely aligned with Freemasonry, & many Lord Mayors have been Masons. As many as 5000 Freemasons March in the yearly parade celebrating the election of the new Lord Mayor. The alleged oldest Masonic Lodge is located in the city. Author Stephen Knight wrote two detailed books about the influence of Freemasonry in London. He focused especially on the various police forces, & how Masonry had created a true good ole boy network which allowed numerous criminal acts to go unpunished. Stephen explains a little bit about the structure of government in the city.

The Honourable Society of the Inner Temple, commonly known as the Inner Temple, is one of the four Inns of Court and is a professional associations for barristers and judges. To be called to the Bar and practise as a barrister in England and Wales, a person must belong to one of these Inns. It is located in the wider Temple area, near the Royal Courts of Justice, and within the City of London. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Inner_Temple Bar Association http://theftbydeception.blogspot.com/2010/02/bar-association-history-who-owns-us.html?m=1 "Leading justice scholars in the system of the UK are well aware that ....the Temple Church as the cradle of Common Law" https://knightstemplarorder.org/heritage/templar-magna-carta/ The Conspiracy About The Bar Association Quote: "The government and legal system of the United States, Canada, Austraila, New Zealand and of course Britain, is totally controlled by the Crown. I have also stated that the British Monarch is not the Crown. The Crown is the Inner City of London, which is an independent State in London belonging to the Vatican system. It is a banking cartel which has a massive system around and beneath, which hides its true power. The City is in fact the Knights Templar Church, also known as the Crown Temple or Crown Templar, and is located between Fleet Street and Victoria Embankment. The Temple grounds are also home to the Crown Offices at Crown Office Row. The Crown Temple controls the Global'Legal'system, including those in the United States, Canada,Australia, and much more; this is because all Bar Associations are franchises of the International Bar Association at the Inns of Court at Crown Temple based at Chancery Lane in London. All Bar Associations are franchises of the Crown and all Bar Attorneys/ Barristers throughout the world pledge a solemn oath to the Temple, even though many may not be aware that this is what they are doing. Bar Association 'licensed' Solicitors / Barristers must keep to their Oath, Pledge and terms of allegiance to the Crown Temple if they are to be "called to the Bar" and work in the legal profession. The ruling Monarch is also subordinate to the Crown Temple, this as been so since the reign of King John in the 13th century when Royal Sovereignty was transferred to the Crown Temple and, through this, to the Roman Church. King John 1167-1216 is the key to this deception." "The present Queen of England is not the "Crown," as we have all been led to believe. Rather, it is the Bankers and Attornies (Attorneys) who are the actual Crown or Crown Temple. The Monarch aristocrats of England have not been ruling sovereigns since the reign of King John, circa 1215. All royal sovereignty of the old British Crown since that time has passed to the Crown Temple in Chancery. The U.S.A. is not the free and sovereign nation that our federal government tells us it is. If this were true, we would not be dictated to by the Crown Temple through its bankers and attornies. The U.S.A. is controlled and manipulated by this private foreign power and our unlawful Federal U.S. Government is their pawnbroker. The bankers and Bar Attorneys in the U.S.A. are a franchise in oath and allegiance to the Crownat Chancery - the Crown Temple Church and its Chancel located at Chancery Lane - a manipulative body of elite bankers and attorners from the independent City of London who violate the law in America by imposingfraudulent "legal" - but totally unlawful - contracts on the American people. The banks Rule the Temple Church and the Attorners carry out their Orders by controlling their victim's judiciary." "The legal system (judiciary) of the U.S.A. is controlled by the CrownTemple from the independent and sovereign City of London. The private Federal Reserve System, which issues fiat U.S. Federal Reserve Notes, is financially owned and controlled by the Crown from Switzerland, the home and legal origin for the charters of the United Nations, the International Monetary Fund, the World Trade Organization, and most importantly, the Bank of International Settlements. Even Hitler respected his Crown bankers by not bombing Switzerland. The Bank of International Settlements in Basel, Switzerland [Vatican bank] controls all the central banks of the G7 nations. He who controls the gold rules the world." "The people who comprise the citizenry of a state are recognised only within natural and common law as is already established by God's Law. Only a State Citizen can be a party to an action within a State Court. A common state citizen cannot be recognised in that court because he doesn't legally exist in Crown Chancery Courts. In order to be recognised in their State Courts, the common man must be converted to that of a corporate or legal entity (a legal fiction). Now you know why they create such an entity using all capital letters within Birth Certificates issued by the State. They convert the common lawful man of God into a fictional legal entity subject to Administration by State Rules, Orders and Codes (there is no "law" within any Rule or Code). Of course, Rules, Codes, etc. do not apply to the lawful common man of the Lord of lords, so the man with inherent Godly law and rights must be converted into a legal "Person" of fictional "status" (another legal term) in order for their legal - but completely unlawful - State Judiciary (Chancery Courts) to have authority over him."

Discovery, in the law of common law jurisdictions, is a pre-trial procedure in a lawsuit in which each party, through the law of civil procedure, can obtain evidence from the other party or parties by means of discovery devices such as interrogatories, requests for production of documents, requests for admissions and depositions. Discovery can be obtained from non-parties using subpoenas. When a discovery request is objected to, the requesting party may seek the assistance of the court by filing a motion to compel discovery. History Discovery evolved out of a unique feature of early equitable pleading procedure before the English Court of Chancery: among various requirements, a plaintiff's bill in equity was required to plead "positions". These were statements of evidence that the plaintiff assumed to exist in support of his pleading and which he believed lay within the knowledge of the defendant. They strongly resembled modern requests for admissions, in that the defendant was required to plead only whether they were true or false. At some point between the reign of Elizabeth I (1558-1603) and the late seventeenth century, positions were gradually replaced by interrogatories: written questions which the defendant was required to truthfully respond to under oath in his answer to the bill, based on information within his own personal knowledge as well as documents in his possession. But back then, interrogatories could only elicit admissible evidence (not the broader modern standard of "reasonably calculated to lead to the discovery of admissible evidence") and could only request evidence in support of the plaintiff's case, not either side's case (that is, they could not ask for evidence which the defendant intended to use in support of his defenses and was otherwise entirely irrelevant to the plaintiff's case). Even worse, this was purely a one-way procedure, because interrogatories could only be pleaded as part of a bill (a pleading initiating a suit in equity). A defendant who needed to obtain evidence in support of his defenses had to file a cross-bill against the plaintiff to plead his own interrogatories. Discovery did not exist at common law, but its availability in equity attracted litigants in actions at law (legal proceedings in the common law courts). They began to file bills in equity to obtain discovery in aid of actions at law. This led to another innovation in the mid-15th century: the bill to perpetuate testimony of a potential witness. This was for witnesses whose advanced age or poor health implied they would not survive to testify at the trial of an action at law. In this type of proceeding, the parties merely pleaded written interrogatories which were read out loud to the witness in a closed proceeding without parties or counsel present. The witness's attendance was secured by service of a subpoena ad testificandum at least 14 days before the date of the examination. In London, the examinations took place before a master or an examiner in Chancery Lane. Outside of London, the parties' attorneys were supposed to jointly stipulate to a group of lay commissioners (typically four, though only two were needed for a quorum) who could not be interested persons (for example, parties or their lawyers) and were usually country gentlemen. Once agreed upon, the court would grant them authority to examine witnesses by way of dedimus potestatem. --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/law-school/message Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/law-school/support
The Chancery Lane Project (TCLP) is a pro bono legal initiative that brings thousands of legal professionals together to help businesses fight the climate crisis and achieve net-zero carbon emissions. Managing Director Becky Clissmann joins us to talk about TCLP's legal clauses that lawyers can use in contracts to help businesses deliver climate targets. We are also joined by John Perkins, Director, and Senior Corporate Counsel at Salesforce – someone who has used TCLP's clauses to great effect. Highlights · TCLP clauses are free for all of us to use, so lawyers can use them in contracts to help businesses deliver climate targets. · TCLP is rolling out its clauses to the global community, ensuring that teams all over the world can start to use them in their jurisdictions, as well as undertaking a carbon needs analysis to pinpoint the areas of focus such as built environment, finance sectors, and energy transition. · John talks about how he first came across TCLP when researching for Salesforce's sustainability initiative – an initiative that requires suppliers to establish a science-based target to a definitive evaluated approach to mitigating emissions. · Salesforce used 2 TCLP clauses in the development of its new sustainability initiative: Teddy's Clause, which is regarding supplier environmental threshold obligations, and Jessica's Clause, which is more about emissions reporting and climate remediation. · John explains that supply chain sustainability is a priority for Salesforce as it produces the largest level of emissions. · John discusses 2 exciting outcomes of implementing TCLP clauses. 1. Their clauses have received a positive reception from suppliers and have boosted cooperation. 2. Salesforce has started to see other corporates, big and small, adopt the same approach. · Becky highlights the importance of TCLP in allowing lawyers in-house and law firms to do something with their everyday work to really make a difference in the climate crisis.

How is it that you become one of Australia's premier restaurateurs and chefs? And what do you need to learn along the way? In this ninth special series of Game Changers, Phil Cummins joins in conversation with Scott Pickett to answer that very question. Chef Restaurateur Scott Pickett embodies the essence of Australian hospitality. Growing up in Kangarilla, South Australia — a region famous for the diversity and quality of its produce — Pickett's early years were spent surrounded by family, traditions of his grandparents' cooking and a native larder with which he developed a subliminal connection, henceforth informing his values as a chef. Growing up on the land, Pickett's strong connection to local farmers & local produce blossomed into a lifelong love affair with all things food. Across Scott's group of restaurants, which include Estelle, Longrain, Matilda, Chancery Lane & Pastore, Scott is able to play with different techniques and cuisines, including doing things like a classic sausage roll! Firmly established as one of Australia's leading chefs and restaurateurs, Pickett's generous spirit and abundant personality are at the core of his establishments, along with his deep understanding of seasonality and respect for Australian growers and producers; each a testament to the origins of this warm-hearted, country boy with an obsessive dedication to excellence.

Growing up on the land, Pickett's strong connection to local farmers & local produce blossomed into a lifelong love affair with all things food. Across Scott's group of restaurants, which include Estelle, Longrain, Matilda, Chancery Lane & Pastore, Scott is able to play with different techniques and cuisines, including doing things like a classic sausage roll! Firmly established as one of Australia's leading chefs and restaurateurs, Pickett's generous spirit and abundant personality are at the core of his establishments, along with his deep understanding of seasonality and respect for Australian growers and producers; each a testament to the origins of this warm-hearted, country boy with an obsessive dedication to excellence.

“A career in construction is not just about muddy boots.”Today my guest is Julia Starzyk, a property quantity surveyor, project construction manager and founder of Stars Projects London, a dynamic property consultancy focusing on cost consultancy and project management in the luxury £1m to £6m property sector. From converting a 150-year-old building in Mayfair into a luxury seven-bed hotel to a modern apartment in Chancery Lane with raw concrete ceilings, she has project managed over 90 luxury property renovations and listed building restorations. Julia arrived in England from Poland 11 years ago and has since worked her way up in the property industry, from assistant site manager to commercial director of a construction company, studying for and achieving two master degrees in the process. Back then the property industry was fiercely male dominated, and while more women have joined and found success in construction, there are some things that still haven't changed. “I'm yet to work on a site where there are female toilets,” Julia says. “I tend to work on the smaller developments so if there is one then it's usually a unisex visitors' toilet. I am yet to experience that luxury!”Julia founded Stars Projects London just before the pandemic hit, to provide time poor high net worth clientele with everything they need to renovate and refurbish their property without stress, mess or hassle. We talk about the challenges this generated as well as: Why women feel the need to prove themselves in order to be on an equal footing with men working in property Managing expectations when it comes to cost, time and quality of a construction project From labour to material shortages, how BREXIT and Covid have affected the property industryHow modern architecture is perceived in the capital and other trends in property development You can connect with Julia via LinkedIn or on Instagram @starprojects.london.

In this latest EG podcast, professional & legal editor Sarah Jackman catches up with Becky Annison, Clare Harman Clark and Simone Potter. All three either work for or are contributors to The Chancery Lane Project – a global initiative that sees lawyers and industry professionals collaborate to produce contract clauses that deliver climate solutions.

Real estate is no exception and, since the project's launch in 2019, model clauses such as a residential green lease covenants clause and green assured shorthold tenancy clause have been published for use in property-related documents. Five new real estate clauses are in the pipeline, ranging from adding disclosures on climate change issues into the City of London Law Society Certificate of Title through to clauses encouraging landlords to provide electricity from renewable energy sources. Tune in to hear more about how its collaborative drafting and peer review process works, as well as what's in store for project going forward. Becky Anniston is the project's director of engagement, Simone Potter is its director of knowledge, while Clare Harman Clark is a senior professional support lawyer at Taylor Wessing and contributor to the project.

THE CROSS-EXAMINATION – On The Hearing, we hear from so many who have entered the legal profession with bold ambitions to change the world for the better. This week's guests may just do that. Becky talks to three determined lawyers about their involvement in a legal pro bono project to fight climate change. The Chancery Lane Project brings together legal professionals to create practical solutions to help reverse climate change. Their vision is a world in which every contract and law enables and encourages businesses to have a positive impact on the environment. They talk through perhaps one of the biggest issues when confronting the climate crisis: its scale. The effects of climate change are incredibly complex and somewhat abstract. Translating that into tangible solutions is a huge challenge that The Chancery Lane Project is addressing through legal hackathons and collaborative problem-solving.

In 1856, on the lower slopes of Mt Eden - a wooden stockade was built to house the overflowing at the Queen Street Goal. Sixteen of the most troublesome prisoners were transferred to the stockade in September 1856. Three of these men were serving a life sentence, one for stabbing a ship captain in the Bay of Islands, one for rape in the Auckland suburb of Newmarket, and one for killing a Maori with a piece of wood in Chancery Lane, a street in Auckland. In 1865, completion of a new building on the site allowed the now decrepit Queen Street Goal to be demolished. Using mostly prison labour, construction continued, expanding the facilities further. By the mid 1870s, prisoners had completed the outer stone wall, the wall that still stands today. In 1882, prisoners began excavation work on a building; Mount Eden Prison was officially opened in 1888. Visit www.truecrimenz.com for additional information on this case.

Tower of London (White Tower). Built by William the Conqueror within the south-east corner of the old Roman walls of London as one of three fortresses intended to secure the city. As London became increasingly important as the centre both of government and of commerce, the castle was enlarged and updated by successive kings, especially by Edward I and Edward III, until it became a complex concentric fortification. But no royal castle in the Middle Ages was used solely for defence and the Tower became the site of a multitude of offices and departments. Its multifarious role was summed up by John Stow in his Survey of London in 1598: ‘This Tower is a citadel to defend or command the city [of London]; a royal palace for assemblies or treaties; a prison of state for the most dangerous offenders; the only place of coinage for all England at this time; the armoury for warlike provision; the treasury of the ornaments and jewels of the crown; and general conserver of the most records of the courts of justice at Westminster.' Even in the later Middle Ages the kings had preferred to reside when in London at their palace at Westminster Report Advertisement Traditionally, however, the new sovereign spent the night in the Tower before his coronation, going in procession to Westminster for the ceremony. The last king to make this procession was Charles II. The Tower has gradually been stripped of most of its other functions. It is still a royal castle, houses the crown jewels, and retains a small military presence but its other offices were relocated in the 19th cent.; the royal mint was moved to new premises on Tower Hill in 1811–12; and in the 1850s the documents held in the Tower were moved to the newly built Public Record Office in Chancery Lane. The historic collection of weapons in the armouries is all that remains of the arsenal, moved to Woolwich after 1841, and to Leeds in 1995. The importance of the Tower as a prison and military strong point remained. Each political crisis caused the Tower to be placed in readiness and saw it housing a crop of political prisoners Tower London Boots - Sale Now On - Up to 60% Off Unmissable Deals on 100s of Shoes, Boots and Trainers. Grab a Bargain Today! tower-london.com/Sale | Sponsored▼ Report Advertisement Even the duke of Wellington, constable of the Tower 1836–52, fearing that the country was close to popular revolution and that the Tower would be a target, had its defences repaired and strengthened and new barracks built with accommodation for a garrison of nearly 1,000 men. He also argued that the Tower was ‘the best if not the only good place of security' for state prisoners, although few were held there. During the two world wars some German spies were executed by firing squad in the Tower and prisoners were again housed there, the last being Rudolf Hess, after his flight to Britain in 1941. --- Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/allthingsplantagenet/support

A walk from Soho to Chancery Lane got me talking about small wins and just the right amount of return on preparation
What followed showed that Mrs. Strickland was a woman of character. Whatever anguish she suffered she concealed. She saw shrewdly that the world is quickly bored by the recital of misfortune, and willingly avoids the sight of distress. Whenever she went out -- and compassion for her misadventure made her friends eager to entertain her -- she bore a demeanour that was perfect. She was brave, but not too obviously; cheerful, but not brazenly; and she seemed more anxious to listen to the troubles of others than to discuss her own. Whenever she spoke of her husband it was with pity. Her attitude towards him at first perplexed me. One day she said to me:"You know, I'm convinced you were mistaken about Charles being alone. From what I've been able to gather from certain sources that I can't tell you, I know that he didn't leave England by himself. ""In that case he has a positive genius for covering up his tracks. "She looked away and slightly coloured."What I mean is, if anyone talks to you about it, please don't contradict it if they say he eloped with somebody. ""Of course not. "She changed the conversation as though it were a matter to which she attached no importance. I discovered presently that a peculiar story was circulating among her friends. They said that Charles Strickland had become infatuated with a French dancer, whom he had first seen in the ballet at the Empire, and had accompanied her to Paris. I could not find out how this had arisen, but, singularly enough, it created much sympathy for Mrs. Strickland, and at the same time gave her not a little prestige. This was not without its use in the calling which she /hæd/ decided to follow. Colonel MacAndrew had not exaggerated when he said she would be penniless, and it was necessary for her to earn her own living as quickly as she could. She made up her mind to profit by her acquaintance with so many writers, and without loss of time began to learn shorthand and typewriting. Her education made it likely that she would be a typist more efficient than the average, and her story made her claims appealing. Her friends promised to send her work, and took care to recommend her to all theirs.The MacAndrews, who were childless and in easy circumstances, arranged to undertake the care of the children, and Mrs. Strickland had only herself to provide for. She let her flat and sold her furniture. She settled in two tiny rooms in Westminster, and faced the world anew. She was so efficient that it was certain she would make a success of the adventure.It was about five years after this that I decided to live in Paris for a while. I was growing stale in London. I was tired of doing much the same thing every day. My friends pursued their course with uneventfulness; they had no longer any surprises for me, and when I met them I knew pretty well what they would say; even their love-affairs had a tedious banality. We were like tram-cars running on their lines from terminus to terminus, and it was possible to calculate within small limits the number of passengers they would carry. Life was ordered too pleasantly. I was seized with panic. I gave up my small apartment, sold my few belongings, and resolved to start afresh.I called on Mrs. Strickland before I left. I had not seen her for some time, and I noticed changes in her; it was not only that she was older, thinner, and more lined; I think her character had altered. She /hæd/ made a success of her business, and now had an office in Chancery Lane; she did little typing herself, but spent her time correcting the work of the four girls she employed. She /hæd/ had the idea of giving it a certain daintiness, and she made much use of blue and red inks; she bound the copy in coarse paper, that looked vaguely like watered silk, in various pale colours; and she /hæd/ acquired a reputation for neatness and accuracy. She was making money. But she could not get over the idea that to earn her living was somewhat undignified, and she was inclined to remind you that she was a lady by birth. She could not help bringing into her conversation the names of people she knew which would satisfy you that she /hæd/ not sunk in the social scale. She was a little ashamed of her courage and business capacity, but delighted that she was going to dine the next night with a K. C. who lived in South Kensington. She was pleased to be able to tell you that her son was at Cambridge, and it was with a little laugh that she spoke of the rush of dances to which her daughter, just out, was invited. I suppose I said a very stupid thing."Is she going into your business?" I asked."Oh no; I wouldn't let her do that, " Mrs. Strickland answered. "She's so pretty. I'm sure she'll marry well. ""I should have thought it would be a help to you. ""Several people have suggested that she should go on the stage, but of course I couldn't consent to that, I know all the chief dramatists, and I could get her a part to-morrow, but I shouldn't like her to mix with all sorts of people. "I was a little chilled by Mrs. Strickland's exclusiveness."Do you ever hear of your husband?""No; I haven't heard a word. He may be dead for all I know. ""I may run across him in Paris. Would you like me to let you know about him?"She hesitated a minute."If he's in any real want I'm prepared to help him a little. I'd send you a certain sum of money, and you could give it him gradually, as he needed it. ""That's very good of you, " I said.But I knew it was not kindness that prompted the offer. It is not true that suffering ennobles the character; happiness does that sometimes, but suffering, for the most part, makes men petty and vindictive. 以后发生的事说明思特里克兰德太太是一个性格坚强的女人。不论她心里委屈多大,她都没有显露出来。她很聪明,知道老是诉说自己的不幸,人们很快就会厌烦,总是摆着一副可怜相也不会讨人喜欢。每逢她外出作客的时候——因为同情她的遭遇,很多朋友有意地邀请她——,她的举止总是十分得体。她表现得很勇敢,但又不露骨;高高兴兴,但又不惹人生厌;她好象更愿意听别人诉说自己的烦恼而不想议论她自己的不幸。每逢谈到自己丈夫的时候,她总是表示很可怜他。她对他的这种态度最初使我感到困惑。有一天她对我说:“你知道,你告诉我说查理斯一个人在巴黎,你肯定是弄错了。根据我听到的消息——我不能告诉你这消息的来源——,我知道他不是独自离开英国的。”“要是这样的话,他真可以说是不露行迹,简直是个天才了。”思特里克兰德太太的目光避开了我,脸有些发红。“我的意思是说,如果有人同你谈论这件事,要是说他是同哪个女人私奔的话,你用不着辩驳。”“当然我不辩驳。”她改换了话题,好象刚才说的是一件无关紧要的小事。不久我就发现,在她的朋友中间流传着一个奇怪的故事。她们说查理斯·思特里克兰德迷恋上一个法国女舞蹈家,他是在帝国大剧院看芭蕾舞首次见到这个女人的,后来就同她一起去巴黎了。我无法知道这个故事怎么会流传起来,但是奇怪的是,它为思特里克兰德太太赚得了人们不少同情,同时也使她的名望增加了不少。这对她决定今后从事的行业很有一些好处。麦克安德鲁上校当初说她手头分文不名并没有夸大。她需要尽快地找一条谋生之道。她决定利用一下她认识不少作家这一有利地位,一点儿没耽搁时间就开始学起速记和打字来。她受的教育会使她从事这一行业高于一般打字人员,她的遭遇也能为她招徕不少主顾。朋友们都答应给她拿活儿来,而且还要尽心把她推荐给各自的相识。麦克安德鲁夫妇没有子女,生活条件又很优裕,就担当下抚养着她子女的事,思特里克兰德太太只需要维持自己一个人的生活就够了。她把住房租了出去,卖掉了家具,在威斯敏斯特附近找了两间小房安置下来。她重新把生活安排好。她非常能干,她决心兴办的这个买卖一定会成功的。这件事过去大约五年之后,我决定到巴黎去住一个时期。伦敦我实在待腻了;天天做的事几乎一模一样,使我感到厌烦得要命。我的朋友们过着老一套的生活,平淡无奇,再也引不起我的好奇心了。有时候我们见了面,不待他们开口,我就知道他们要说什么话。就连他们的桃色事件也都是枯燥乏味的老一套。我们这些人就象从终点站到终点站往返行驶的有轨电车,连乘客的数目也能估计个八九不离十。生活被安排得太有秩序了。我觉得简直太可怕了。我退掉了我的小住房,卖掉为数不多的几件家具,决定开始另外一种生活。临行以前我到思特里克兰德太太家去辞行。我有不少日子没同她见面了,我发现她有不少的变化,不仅人变得老了、瘦了,皱纹比以前多了,就连性格我觉得都有些改变。她的事业很兴旺,这时在昌塞里街开了一个事务所。她自己打字不多,时间主要用在校改她雇用的四名女打字员的打字稿上。她想尽办法把稿件打得非常讲究,很多地方使用蓝色和红色的字带,打好的稿件用各种浅颜色的粗纸装订起来,乍一看仿佛是带波纹的绸子。她给人打的稿件以整齐精确闻名,生意很能赚钱。但是尽管如此,她却认为自己谋生糊口有失身份,总有些抬不起头来。同别人谈话的时候,她忘不了向对方表白自己的高贵出身,动不动就提到她认识的一些人物,叫你知道她的社会地位一点儿没有降低。对自已经营打字行业的胆略和见识她不好意思多谈,但是一说起第二天晚上要在一位家住南肯星顿的皇家法律顾问那里吃晚饭,却总是眉飞色舞。她很愿意告诉你她儿子在剑桥大学读书的事;讲起她女儿刚刚步入社交界,一参加舞会就应接不暇时,她总是得意地笑了起来。我觉得我在和她聊天的时候问了一句蠢话。“她要不要到你开的这个打字所里做点儿事?”“啊,不,我不让她做这个,”思特里克兰德太太回答,“她长得很漂亮,我认为她一定能结一门好亲事。”“那对你将会有很大的帮助,我早该想到的。”“有人建议叫她上舞台,但是我当然不会同意。所有有名的戏剧家我都认识,只要我肯张嘴,马上就能给她在戏里派个角色,但是我不愿意她同杂七杂八的人混在一起。”思特里克兰德太太这种孤芳自赏的态度叫我心里有点儿发凉。“你听到过你丈夫的什么消息吗?”“没有,什么也没有听到过。说不定他已经死了。”“我在巴黎可能遇见他。如果我知道他什么消息,你要不要我告诉你。”她犹豫了一会儿。“如果他的生活真的贫困不堪,我还是准备帮助帮助他。我会给你寄一笔钱去,在他需要的时候,你可以一点一点地给他。”但是我知道她答应做这件事并不是出于仁慈的心肠。有人说灾难不幸可以使人性高贵,这句话并不对;叫人做出高尚行动的有时候反而是幸福得意,灾难不幸在大多数情况下只能使人们变得心胸狭小、报复心更强。
What followed showed that Mrs. Strickland was a woman of character. Whatever anguish she suffered she concealed. She saw shrewdly that the world is quickly bored by the recital of misfortune, and willingly avoids the sight of distress. Whenever she went out -- and compassion for her misadventure made her friends eager to entertain her -- she bore a demeanour that was perfect. She was brave, but not too obviously; cheerful, but not brazenly; and she seemed more anxious to listen to the troubles of others than to discuss her own. Whenever she spoke of her husband it was with pity. Her attitude towards him at first perplexed me. One day she said to me:"You know, I'm convinced you were mistaken about Charles being alone. From what I've been able to gather from certain sources that I can't tell you, I know that he didn't leave England by himself. ""In that case he has a positive genius for covering up his tracks. "She looked away and slightly coloured."What I mean is, if anyone talks to you about it, please don't contradict it if they say he eloped with somebody. ""Of course not. "She changed the conversation as though it were a matter to which she attached no importance. I discovered presently that a peculiar story was circulating among her friends. They said that Charles Strickland had become infatuated with a French dancer, whom he had first seen in the ballet at the Empire, and had accompanied her to Paris. I could not find out how this had arisen, but, singularly enough, it created much sympathy for Mrs. Strickland, and at the same time gave her not a little prestige. This was not without its use in the calling which she /hæd/ decided to follow. Colonel MacAndrew had not exaggerated when he said she would be penniless, and it was necessary for her to earn her own living as quickly as she could. She made up her mind to profit by her acquaintance with so many writers, and without loss of time began to learn shorthand and typewriting. Her education made it likely that she would be a typist more efficient than the average, and her story made her claims appealing. Her friends promised to send her work, and took care to recommend her to all theirs.The MacAndrews, who were childless and in easy circumstances, arranged to undertake the care of the children, and Mrs. Strickland had only herself to provide for. She let her flat and sold her furniture. She settled in two tiny rooms in Westminster, and faced the world anew. She was so efficient that it was certain she would make a success of the adventure.It was about five years after this that I decided to live in Paris for a while. I was growing stale in London. I was tired of doing much the same thing every day. My friends pursued their course with uneventfulness; they had no longer any surprises for me, and when I met them I knew pretty well what they would say; even their love-affairs had a tedious banality. We were like tram-cars running on their lines from terminus to terminus, and it was possible to calculate within small limits the number of passengers they would carry. Life was ordered too pleasantly. I was seized with panic. I gave up my small apartment, sold my few belongings, and resolved to start afresh.I called on Mrs. Strickland before I left. I had not seen her for some time, and I noticed changes in her; it was not only that she was older, thinner, and more lined; I think her character had altered. She /hæd/ made a success of her business, and now had an office in Chancery Lane; she did little typing herself, but spent her time correcting the work of the four girls she employed. She /hæd/ had the idea of giving it a certain daintiness, and she made much use of blue and red inks; she bound the copy in coarse paper, that looked vaguely like watered silk, in various pale colours; and she /hæd/ acquired a reputation for neatness and accuracy. She was making money. But she could not get over the idea that to earn her living was somewhat undignified, and she was inclined to remind you that she was a lady by birth. She could not help bringing into her conversation the names of people she knew which would satisfy you that she /hæd/ not sunk in the social scale. She was a little ashamed of her courage and business capacity, but delighted that she was going to dine the next night with a K. C. who lived in South Kensington. She was pleased to be able to tell you that her son was at Cambridge, and it was with a little laugh that she spoke of the rush of dances to which her daughter, just out, was invited. I suppose I said a very stupid thing."Is she going into your business?" I asked."Oh no; I wouldn't let her do that, " Mrs. Strickland answered. "She's so pretty. I'm sure she'll marry well. ""I should have thought it would be a help to you. ""Several people have suggested that she should go on the stage, but of course I couldn't consent to that, I know all the chief dramatists, and I could get her a part to-morrow, but I shouldn't like her to mix with all sorts of people. "I was a little chilled by Mrs. Strickland's exclusiveness."Do you ever hear of your husband?""No; I haven't heard a word. He may be dead for all I know. ""I may run across him in Paris. Would you like me to let you know about him?"She hesitated a minute."If he's in any real want I'm prepared to help him a little. I'd send you a certain sum of money, and you could give it him gradually, as he needed it. ""That's very good of you, " I said.But I knew it was not kindness that prompted the offer.

This talk marks the ninty-eighth anniversary of the sinking of the Titanic. Using documents from The National Archives, James Cronan will take you through the history of the ship, from its construction and launch to its fateful end. James Cronan is a records specialist in diplomatic and colonial records. His interest in all things Titanic stems from the fact that his great-grandfather was a crewman on board the stricken ship. He has worked at The National Archives for 17 years, at Chancery Lane, the Family Records Centre and Kew.
The Fifth Doctor and Turlough are drawn to the planet Sarn by Kamelion, where they encounter in one of his diabolical plans to tap the power of the Numismaton gas. [] Plot On the desert world of Sarn, robed natives worship the fire god Logar and follow the Chief Elder, Timanov, who demands obedience. Those who dissent are known as Unbelievers, and two of them, Amyand and Roskal, cause unrest when they claim to have ventured to the top of the sacred fire mountain but not found Logar. One of the Sarns, Malkon, is known as the Chosen One because of the unusual double triangle symbol burnt into his skin: he is also unusual for having been found as a baby on the slopes of the fire mountain. The same triangle symbol is found on a metal artefact uncovered in an archaeological dig in overseen by Professor Howard Foster. His stepdaughter Perpugilliam (usually called "Peri") Brown is bored with the dig and wants to go travelling in Morocco and when he seeks to prevent this she steals the strange artefact and tries to swim for freedom. Fortunately for her the has landed nearby – responding to a distress call sent by the strange artefact - and Turlough sees her drowning and rescues her. Going through her possessions as she recovers he finds the artefact and acknowledges the same triangle symbol is burnt into his own flesh. The returns to the TARDIS after attempting to triangulate the source of the signal being emitted by the artefact, and the ship dematerialises, seemingly on its own. It soon arrives on Sarn and the Doctor and Turlough set off to explore. The Doctor's other companion, the android Kamelion, has meanwhile made mental contact with its old controller, , who attempts to assert his control and change Kamelion's appearance from that of Howard. Kamelion tries to warn Peri of the Master but the succeeds in gaining control. She flees the TARDIS with the creature in pursuit as the rumblings of the volcanoes of Sarn gather ferocity. In the Sarn colony Timanov has damned the Unbelievers to be sacrificed to appease Logar and stop the tremors. They flee to a secret base in the mountains which is filled with seismological apparatus and which the Doctor and Turlough stumble across. The Doctor informs the Unbelievers that the tunnels, which have been their refuge are volcanic vents which will soon fill with molten lava. It is also established that Turlough is of the same race as those who colonised the planet, and when the indigenous people see his Misos Triangle, they greet him as a second Chosen One. Turlough realises Malkon may be his brother and becomes even more worried when Peri turns up and mentions the Master. Another important figure in Sarn mythology is the Outsider, a promised prophet, and the Master/Kamelion fulfils this role admirably. He convinces Timanov of the appropriateness of harsh action and when the Doctor arrives with the Unbelievers they are all seized for burning. However, Malkon and Peri arrive shortly afterward and end this assault, though not before Malkon has been injured. Turlough is aghast when he finds his relative has been shot and the Doctor presses him for as much information as he has on the strange circumstances of Sarn. It seems it is a long abandoned Trion colony planet, and that Turlough, a Trion, suspects some of his family were sent here after a revolution against the hereditary leading clans of his homeworld. He supposes his father died in a crash but that Malkon survived, while he himself was sent in exile to Brendan School In England, overseen by a Trion agent masquerading as a solicitor in Chancery Lane. The Master/Kamelion has meanwhile seized Peri and uses her to transport a black box into the control room of his TARDIS. It contains a miniature Master – the real thing – who has been shrunken and transformed by a disastrous experiment with his Tissue Compression Eliminator. The Master thus re-established the psychic link with Kamelion to gain the power of movement and has manoeuvred the robot to Sarn so that he can take advantage of the restorative powers of the Numismaton gas within the fire mountain. Turlough realises the imminent volcano bursts will destroy the Sarn colony so nobly uses a functioning communication unit to get in touch with Trion and plead for a rescue ship to evacuate Sarn. In doing so he abandons his own freedom. When the ship later arrives, the Sarns all depart, along with Turlough and Malkon. They have both been pardoned in an amnesty issued by the new Sarn government. The only one to remain on the planet and face the erupting volcanoes is Timanov, now sure to die, his faith in tatters. The Doctor meanwhile succeeds in weakening the Master's hold of Kamelion, and interrupts the numismaton experiment. He adds calorific gas to the numismaton surge and seemingly burns the Master alive. The Doctor also puts the terminally wounded Kamelion out of its misery. He returns to the TARDIS with a heavy heart, but with a new companion, Peri, for company. [] Cast notes Mark Strickson has also reprised the role of Turlough in the audio plays by and penned the introduction to the novel Turlough and the Earthlink Dilemma (1986). Promotional photographs taken during production include a shot of Peter Davison wearing a tuxedo and holding a gun, with Nicola Bryant standing next to him in a bikini, in a parody of . [] Continuity This was the last story to feature Mark Strickson as Turlough. He returned for the Fifth Doctor's scene in . Turlough was the last male companion of the Doctor on screen until joined the TARDIS crew briefly at the end of the episode "" in 2005. Strickson has said that had he realised that the next season would involve stories consisting of two 50-minute episodes, he would not have departed from the series. He felt that Turlough was not receiving enough development because the 25-minute format necessitated more frequent cliffhangers and therefore less character development. This serial was originally intended as the for as the since his contract with the show had come to an end, hence the "death" of the character in the numismaton flames at the story's climax. As a deliberate tease for the audience, the Master's truncated final line is "Won't you even show mercy to your own -", with him apparently being killed by the gas just as he is about to reveal the true nature of his relationship to the Doctor. However, the Master reappeared in the following season's without explanation as to how he survived the flames. Script Editor cut from the explanation for the Master's survival provided by writers but the explanation is in their novelisation of the serial.) It was decided that because of the climate of , where the serial was filmed, the cast would have to alter their usual costumes. Although Peter Davison started the story wearing his cricketer outfit, for the rest of the story, he wore a different pair of trousers with question mark braces and a beige floral waistcoat. Strickson shed his usual school uniform in favour of a blue pin-stripe shirt and tan shorts with a pair of underneath. Nicola Bryant also wore a pink bikini beneath her clothes to which she stripped down for a couple of scenes, the first time a companion had been seen to wear a two-piece swimsuit since in the story . Peri's mother and her friend Mrs Van Gysegham, both mentioned in this story, appear in the 2006 audio drama . Although Kamelion dies in this story, he makes a posthumous reappearance in the audio . This is the only story in the Peter Davison era in which made no appearance as though she is briefly mentioned in episode 1. She left the TARDIS crew in the previous serial , and appears in the Fifth Doctor's regeneration sequence in following adventure, , as a hallucination.
