“Chas and Pip are me in conflict,” explains Wesker, “me talking to myself I am that old-fashioned autodidact. I didn’t go to university, so I read a great deal and had a view of the world from all sorts of books.” The two characters, in other words, are Wesker before and after he embarked on the project of self-improvement.The play can be carbon-dated not only by its subject but also by the neutering of its industrial language. In the Penguin text, the conscripts’ expletive of choice is “scorching”. Wesker has suggested to the director Howard Davies “sprinkling a few `fucks’ here and there”, while retaining “scorching” as a flavoursome whiff of the 1950s. Meanwhile, Break, My Heart, a new one-act play performed in Cardiff this summer, has been travelling along the linguistic sewer in precisely the opposite direction. When HTV came to film it, they invited its author to lighten the cargo of expletives.

“They complained that there were something like 62 `fuckings’ and one `cunt’ They said, you can have 12 `fuckings’ and no `cunt’. But we managed to bargain with them.” The story would suggest that Wesker is becoming more pragmatic. But there is another airman called Chas who looks up to Pip, and begs to learn at his feet. Their taste for eating chips with everything is symptomatic of a lack of imagination that perpetuates their mass submission. (Wesker, incidentally, has a soft spot for chips too – but not with everything.)Because so much of Wesker’s work is autobiographical – “My power of invention is slight”, he wrote in one essay – it is easy to assume that he invested much of himself in Pip: Pip’s leading role in the raid on the coke store, and fit of conscience when ordered to do a bayonet charge, both happened to his creator.

Its hero, Pip Thompson, is the privileged, educated son of a wealthy banker but, perhaps because of some quarrel with his father, has chosen to join the ranks. He stands accused by an officer of slumming it so he can crown himself king of the castle, and by fellow conscripts of patronising the working classes with his empathy In fact, he despises his new peers as much as his old ones. Is he not worried that the DNA in Chips will make it look like a period piece? “It depends what you mean by a period piece,” he says. “If you mean that it belongs to a period, then yes, obviously it belongs to a period.

If you mean that it is therefore dead and dull and of peripheral interest, the answer is, I don’t know.” He later adds: “I don’t see it as one of my plays that could last.”However sepia-tinted it may yet turn out to be, Chips with Everything remains the play about National Service. On the death of Osborne, Wesker writes an article in The Guardian about their last encounter, at a soiree at Buckingham Palace. Osborne’s widow, Helen, takes offence at Wesker’s portrayal of the deceased as a drunkard, and posts his name, alongside those of other personae non gratae, on the door at the memorial service, barring entry It is the most remarkable public humiliation But very dramatic. In Scene 9, a solitary Wesker visits Osborne’s grave.To see if the 10th scene brings a happy ending, we must await the judgement of the critics. The setting is the near future – September 1997 – when, 20 years on from the Shylock / Mostel debacle on Broadway, Wesker’s diary, The Birth of Shylock and the Death of Zero Mostel, is to be published.

It must have been a culture shock to Darren Jackson, who just 19 months ago was playing in the Stade de France against Brazil in the opening game of the World Cup finals.The Scotland player had signed on loan from Hearts on Friday, evidence of Livingston’s fiscal power but Jackson was given a rude welcome to the First Division when he was scythed down by Kevin Christie after just six minutes, a feud that would characterise a first half brimming with brutality.The one antidote to all of this was McAllister. The elfin Falkirk winger has lost little of the industry or trickery that made him a favourite at Stamford Bridge. Sadly, Hutchison is no Kerry Dixon when it comes to finishing. The Falkirk striker wasted four good chances given to him by McAllister, the best a volley which dipped just over.The underlying malice, though, eventually claimed a victim. Livingston forward Alex Burns was sent off after 33 minutes for a moment of sheer folly, lashing out at Davie Nicholls after the Falkirk defender had kicked him.Falkirk, however, seemed unable to profit from the numerical advantage and were kept out by the alert goalkeeping of Neil Alexander.But Alexander was powerless to prevent Hutchison scoring 12 minutes from the end, when McAllister’s perfect free-kick allowed his striker to glance an unstoppable header into then roof of the net..

Madonna put Dornoch on the map with a wedding, but Maradona may just do the same for Dundee simply with a one-night stand.

Madonna put Dornoch on the map with a wedding, but Maradona may just do the same for Dundee simply with a one-night stand. The Hand of God moves in mysterious ways, but pulling on a dark-blue jersey to play for Dundee Football Club might just be the most bizarre of the lot.
“The City of Discovery” is how the Scottish Tourist Board bills Dundee, named after the ship on which Captain James Scott sailed to the Antarctic. Yet despite the relic moored by the Tay, Dundee’s best-known exports are the Beano and Dandy, whose comics have rolled off DC Thompson’s production line for generations of grateful children.Yet even the editors at Roy of the Rovers might have turned their noses up at the idea of football’s most infamous drug-taker making a 90-minute comeback for a team in the Scottish Premier League he had never heard of until three months ago, though “Diego of Dundee” has a nice alliterative ring to it, just like “Billy’s Boots”, “Hotshot Hamish” and, of course, Roy Race.Around the world, those who could not tell the difference between Dundee cake and Dundee United had tracked down the number for Dens Park on Wednesday as the phone rang off the hook with inquiries about Maradona’s appear-ance in a “glamour friendly” for Dundee against Napoli, the team he led to Italian titles in 1987 and 1990.Jim Connor, the club’s commercial manager, is pretty sure that the world’s media will be able to pinpoint the small speck of land off the North Sea by the time the Argentine legend, now 40, lands sometime in March to play his one and only game for the club. “The response since we announced that Diego Maradona would be coming has been unbelievable,” said Connor, who has spent the last two days in Madrid meeting agents who specialise in South American football, and who can set up television deals which Dundee hope will rake them in a fortune.”On Wednesday, we got a taste of what is to come as far as demand to see him is concerned and as to what it will be like when he arrives here. We are sure we could sell out Dens Park twice over, and there would be no question that the demand for tickets will come from much further afield than Dundee.”There were calls at the ground from all over the world, from people who would like to see him play.

We know it is going to happen, though the final complexities of the deal have still to be ironed out.”Dens Park’s 12,000 seats will not be enough to satisfy those who want to see Maradona in the corpulent flesh. The man honoured recently by Fifa as the Player of the Century remains an iconic figure, despite the battle with drugs which has bloated his body beyond recognition. Indeed, that twist merely heightens television’s voyeuristic interest in his Dundee one-nighter. “It is fair to say that tentative discussions have already taken place with television companies around the world,” said Connor. Certainly, word circled the globe quickly enough about about Diego’s comeback.No sooner had rumours surfaced – thanks to Dundee’s ill-advised Georgian midfielder Giorgi Nemsadze – that Maradona was to receive a reputed £250,000 fee for his night on Tayside than the former Napoli idol was presented with a £16m bill for unpaid tax upon his return to Italy on Thursday after eight years’ absence.Yet the question persists, why Dundee? The answer is simply Claudio Caniggia, the former golden boy of Argentine football, who was a team-mate of Maradona’s in the side which reached the 1990 World Cup Final before beating him to a drugs ban for taking cocaine while at AS Roma in 1994.The pair were team-mates in Buenos Aires a few seasons ago, at Boca Juniors, celebrating every goal with a kiss.

Excess water simply drains away.Which is not only reassuring news for those people who have fallen off oil rigs in storms. Terrible, that is, if your favourite hobby requires the presence of mountainous waves. I was in Norfolk for a ride in a Rigid Inflatable Boat (or RIB). “We like it extreme,” adds Richard, the director of North Sea Training Services, a company which trains about 1,000 people a year in sea-rescue, operating in stormy weather off Britain’s oil rigs. If I had had flocks to graze, I too would have enjoyed grazing them in the Temple of Bel, or the Great Colonnade, the old road where all travelling merchants between the Mediterranean and China once watered their camels and pack-horses.Of course you never actually bought your lands, because there was nobody to buy them from. You never thought about it in those days when there was land for everyone. And of course you know deep down in your hearts that tourism is good for you because it brings in much more cash than goat-herding ever will – assuming that you ever see any of that cash, of course.But at least you had the vision and the good taste to occupy sites that none of us would even know about until the invention of mass tourism And for that, you deserve our thoughts..

Even you hustlers who bring camels for the pleasure of tourists around the Pyramids of Egypt – even you are being excluded from your old stamping grounds, as a penalty for harassing us.I can’t help thinking that you could all use the services of an American lawyer specialising in real estate. But there is nothing particularly complex about the question of where you might prefer to base yourselves. In a squalid little shanty town with erratic electricity and leaky plumbing – or in the warm, dry caves of the rose-red city of the ancient Nabataeans? In a drafty Damascus apartment block with no room for your goats – or commanding the heights of northern Syria in the Basilica of St Simeon, which in the 5th century AD was the largest church in the world? I think we tourists can see what you mean.I dare say you also knew what you were doing when you set your flocks to graze in the wreckage of Palmyra, city of palms, jewel of Queen Zenobia. In fact, what is happening to you is no more than what has already happened to lots of other people.You who spent your winters sheltering in the caves of Petra in Jordan went the same way just a few short years ago Now you live in breeze-block houses down the road.

If you carry on like this there will not be anything left at all for us tourists to come and look at. Then where will we be?You may have spent the last thousand years grazing your flocks in the ruins of early Christian settlements outside Aleppo, but tradition is no guarantee of a long future. You may find this surprising because, as you know, we tourists love to find bedouin among our ruins. It has always been an essential part of the Middle Eastern package.

The women host Luxembourg and Portugal and face daunting trips to Estonia and Bosnia.England Basketball do not have to confirm venues until 26 June, but the men and women will stage a double-header on 16 September, the only date that both teams are at home.EB’s performance manager, Radmila Turner, returned from Melbourne via America, where she met the England-qualified former junior international Luol Deng, now with the Chicago Bulls, and his agent.Deng assured Turner that he wants to play in all four Great Britain games in September. But Kamanda Laugh (2.40) looks an interesting recruit for his flourishing stable.. Monday is the closing date for applications to coach the senior men’s and women’s Great Britain teams in September’s European ‘B’ Championships, at the start of the most important six-year period in the sport’s history leading up to the 2012 London Olympics.

The sport’s international governing body, the FIBA, has made it clear that the home nations will not be given a place at the Games unless they hit the mark competitively. England’s men and women each won bronze at last month’s Melbourne Commonwealth Games, but that will not cut as much ice as the combined British teams progressing through the European ‘B’ Championships to join the leading nations in the full championships in 2009.
In September the British men have home games against the Netherlands and Belarus and travel to Slovakia and Albania. His stamina has not really been tested over 10 furlongs round Lingfield and he will be ideally suited by dropping back to a mile. Andr?abre also saddles an unexposed type in the Dubai Duty Free Fred Darling Stakes, but Nasheej (3.15) will set a decent standard if sufficiently forward for her reappearance.Her stable also provides an interesting candidate for the Bloor Homes Spring Cup in Red Spell, who is well treated on his improved form on the all-weather. On the other hand, he did have a gruelling campaign at two and may not have truly stayed the seventh furlong when fourth in the Dewhurst Stakes.Better value may rest with Reve Lunaire (3.50), who beat a subsequent listed winner on his only start at two but failed to cope with heavy ground on his reappearance.

He comes here fresh after sitting out Cheltenham and Aintree, having shaped as though this kind of marathon would suit when fourth to Innox in the Racing Post Chase. The new champion trainer is finishing the season with a fitting flourish and Ladalko (3.30) can apply icing to the cake.The star turn on the card is Monet’s Garden(2.20), whose exuberant jumping should justify the billing of the Ashleybank Future Champions’ Novice Chase.As for those bashful Flat horses, the vogue for avoiding the trials is heightened in the case of the Lane’s End Greenham Stakes by the fact that it falls this year a bare fortnight before the Stan James 2,000 Guineas. Rather like his stablemate, Killybegs, who won at Newmarket on Thursday, Red Clubs had his limitations exposed when raised in class as a juvenile but he remains an eligible favourite, granted the slick early form of his yard. His talented young rider’s claim could prove precious, but none of the jockeys will be on level terms in a race like this until Ruby Walsh’s mount is obliged to carry a penalty.Walsh rode Ladalko to win over hurdles at this meeting last year off 135 and his rating over fences remains just 2lb higher. He was off the bridle a long way out but stayed on dourly and his jumping is far more reliable than that of the third, Darkness, who is worse off at the weights.Stamina is also the bedrock of All In the Stars, who has been trained for this race since the Hennessy Gold Cup in November, when he might have finished even closer than fifth but for a couple of clumsy errors. In contrast with Aintree, where it was easy to eliminate half the field, very few can be discounted at Ayr, but a valid shortlist might comprise Idle Talk, All In The Stars and Ladalko.
Novices have a fine record in this race and Idle Talk excelled on only his fourth start over fences when chasing home Star De Mohaison – impressive since at Aintree – in the Royal & SunAlliance Chase at Cheltenham.

Next week several Cheltenham winners, notably War Of Attrition and Brave Inca, seek to add to their laurels at the Punchestown Festival, while the Gala Casinos Scottish National is so competitive that it wrests top billing today from the final Guineas trials down at Newbury. Gary Imlach’s book, My Father and Other Working Class Football Heroes, won the 2005 William Hill Sports Book of the Year award. If the leading contenders for the first Classics of the new Flat season have so far hesitated to leave the wings, then the jumpers are proving no less reluctant to abandon centre stage. Whether that’s the failure of a Faustian pact or just acquired immunity to the flaxseed oil, he’s without a home run so far this season.One player’s ailments won’t make baseball any healthier, but should they prevail they might make it a bit easier to maintain the suspension of disbelief in the numbers game. Entering this season, his career total was 708 – six short of Babe Ruth and 47 behind the record holder, Aaron.

Convinced that his sister had stolen them, he called the police. The author was Marcia Williams, then 24, a recent graduate of London University, employed as a typist by Morgan Phillips, general secretary of the Labour Party.Lady Falkender’s father was a Northamptonshire builder named Henry Field There seems to have been tension in the family. Apart from his first-class mind, Harold Wilson always struck me as an ordinary, dull chap who didn’t do the things us ordinary, dull chaps don’t do.”The Wilson-Williams relationship began with an anonymous letter to Harold Wilson, in 1956, accurately warning that staff at the party’s headquarters were plotting against him. The resulting damages provided income for the charity of Harold Wilson’s choice for years.When the press found out that Williams had two young sons, born while she was working at Downing Street in the late 1960s, they fell over each other for evidence of Wilson’s paternity.

It emerged that the father was actually Walter Terry, political editor of the Daily Mail. The national press kept discreetly silent about this until a few years later when Private Eye broke the story.Lord Archer of Sandwell, who was a minister in the Labour Government, says: “I thought it was established years ago that this rumour wasn’t true. Always kept mine in St John’s Wood.” One record company hinted at the story on the cover of a record. If Lady Falkender has her way, it will never be shown again.This has caused some surprise because the claims around which Mr Wheen wound his story are not new. She denies that she drafted Harold Wilson’s now-infamous resignation honours list, the so-called Lavender List, and denies the implication that she had an affair with Wilson in the 1950s. That is a very old rumour indeed, that probably began when she separated from her husband, Ed Williams, in the late 1950s “Funny fellow, Wilson,” Harold Macmillan once said “Keeps his mistress at No 10.

The play, written by the journalist Francis Wheen, has been shown on BBC4, to good reviews, and was scheduled for terrestrial television. A letter from the libel lawyers, Carter-Ruck, has forced the corporation to cancel a repeat of its drama The Lavender List. Lady Falkender voted against it.Now the BBC has received a painful reminder that the old lady is with us still. Nine days ago, the Lords argued over a Bill that would have given doctors the right to assist their patients to die in strictly limited circumstances.

Lady Falkender is 74 years old, and can sometimes be spotted in the House of Lords, of which she has been a silent member for 32 years She votes from time to time. Another detail in Donoughue’s diary with a contemporary ring is “that gal” charged her hairdressing bills to the Labour Party.Many years have passed since Williams slipped out of the public eye and now she exists, it seems, only as a name in books and memoirs. Until 1966, the award of peerages was the prerogative of the Chief Whip, not the Prime Minister. Harold Wilson took that power for himself, and later told his policy adviser, Bernard Donoughue, that he did it because “that gal Marcia insisted on it”. When President Nixon visited Downing Street in April 1974, he spotted a woman press officer and asked: “Say, is that the one we’ve been reading about?” She was also, arguably, the most powerful woman in Britain – clever, strong-willed, ambitious, charming, manipulative and insecure.
Her long shadow is discernible in this year’s allegations of “cash for peerages”. Harold Wilson’s private and political secretary, she was for a short period one of the most famous women in Britain.

This was the historic rapprochement of Labour and the LibDems, a goal close to Tony Blair’s heart but to few others in the party. With both Paddy Ashdown and Peter Mandelson gone, this aspiration has apparently been finally killed off.The quiet demise of New Labour does not, however, mean a reversion to Old Labour – or any of the disparate ideas that we now identify with that phantasm. More traditionalist members of the Labour Party have been crowing at Mandelson’s fall – “ring out the New, bring in the Old”, as one put it last week – but going back is not an option. For one thing, Labour’s message is still in the hands of people who were once New Labourites: there is no reverse gear on their car. More importantly, the world has moved on: if a second-term government is going to fulfil its historical promise, the party must find a story fit for new times.It is in this context that the events of recent weeks should be seen: one of the least noticed but most significant consequences of Mandelson’s departure has been his removal from the inner core of those who will draw up the party’s manifesto. The question is whether a different kind of message – or “narrative” as Labour strategists call it – will emerge now that the arch-priest of New Labour has gone.Tony Blair’s speech last week began this process. Its dominant theme was equality of opportunity – not simply a “Darwinian” meritocracy, but one in which those with fewest advantages are helped by an active government, “investing in our people and in our public services to release the potential in all”.

Equality of opportunity is a notoriously slippery concept, capable of a weak, liberal interpretation, as well as a strong, social-democratic one, but this was as close to the latter as Blair has come.What the speech did not contain, however, is a theory of government to go with this new egalitarianism. For the almost complete failure of the New Labour project to establish an ideological identity – who, still, can explain the Third Way? – was ultimately due to its ambivalence towards the role of the state.New Labour wanted to improve public services; but it couldn’t bring itself to defend the value of taxation. It wanted to promote public-sector investment; but also to privatise air-traffic control and the Underground. It implemented the minimum wage; but resisted EU directives on working time and worker consultation for fear of “over-regulating” business. It redistributed income; but refused to talk about it in front of the Daily Mail. In the end, it was these fudges that fatally undermined the attempt to define a meaningful New Labour philosophy.As that project fades into history, the challenge is to reconstruct a coherent idea of what government is for There is still work to be done; but the outlines are clear.

A modern left-of-centre government should pursue the active management and regulation of the global economy. It should promote the quality of life by protecting social space, personal time and the natural environment. It should redistribute opportunity, including both income and assets. And it should provide tax-funded, user-focused and accountable public services for all.Will the manifesto achieve such ideological clarity? It is not there yet, but the noises emerging from both No 10 and the Treasury are encouraging. Facing an Opposition that does not believe in government at all, the opportunity in this election is for the party to articulate a genuinely coherent philosophy relevant to the conditions of the 21st century. “New Labour” is dead; long live new Labour?The author is general-secretary of the Fabian Society.

Critics have noted that Twin Peaks contains a mixture of several TV genres. The series’ fundamental lines of action combine the soap opera with the detective story. In soap opera, parallel stories spin out over many episodes, branching and crisscrossing.
