Isabel Mountbatten no esperaba que su padre muriese de forma tan repentina, siendo tan joven, dejándole un trono que llenar y una institución global que gobernar. Coronada a los veinticinco años, ya era esposa y madre cuando empezo el camino que la convertiria en reina. Mientras Gran Bretaña huia de la sombra de la guerra, la nueva monarca se enfrentaba a sus propios desafios. Su madre dudaba de su matrimonio; su tio, en el exilio, se mofaba de sus aptitudes; su marido estaba resentido por haber sacrificado su carrera y el nombre de su familia, y su rebelde hermana se embarcaba en una aventura amorosa que amenazaba los lazos centenarios entre la Iglesia y la Corona. Esta es la historia de como Isabel II recurrio a toda su determinacion para garantizar que la Corona saliese siempre victoriosa. Un libro que supone el complemento oficial del drama televisivo de Netflix, galardonado con varios premios Emmy, que narra el reinado de la reina Isabel II protagonizado por Claire Foy y John Lithgow, y creado por Peter Morgan. Escrita por el consultor historico de la serie, el biografo de la realeza Robert Lacey, The Crown: la historia desde dentro aporta detalles en profundidad de la mano de un gran experto a los sucesos que se muestran en pantalla, en un retrato intimo de la vida en el palacio de Buckingham y en el numero 10 de Downing Street, donde vemos a Isabel II como nunca antes la habiamos visto.

This book is a tribute to the comedians who have entertained the public for so long, dedicating their lives to adding a bit of laughter to the mundane everyday. The Double Act will appeal to all lovers of British comedy as it takes them through the golden moments of its history.

In 1966 a coal slag heap collapsed on a school in south Wales, killing 144 people, most of them children. Poet Owen Sheers has given voice to those who still live in Aberfan, the pit village in which tragedy struck, and using their collective memories has created a striking work of poetic power. Sheers set out to paint a portrait not just of what happened, but also of what was lost. What was Aberfan like in 1966? What were the interests of the people, the social life, the sporting obsessions, the bands of the day? What was the deeper history of the place? Why had it become the mining village it was, and what had it been before the discovery of coal under its soil? Perhaps most significantly, what was Aberfan like today?The Green Hollow is a historical story with a deeply urgent contemporary resonance: a story of what can happen when a community is run by a corporation. It is also a story known along generational rather than geographic borders. Based on the BBC One production, The Green Hollow is a beautifully rendered picture of a time and place - and a life-altering event whose effects are felt to this day.

The book has been written by Dan Sullivan and Jim Sullivan, who, as sons of the creator of the series, are uniquely placed to use their knowledge of the show to set such brain-teasers as: What is the title of Rodneys prize winning painting? At what train station do Del and Raquel first meet? According to Trigger he once owned a hat. What colour was it? What does the A on Dels O-level exam results stand for? What is Joan Trotters middle name? It s a lovely jubbly stocking filler which will entertain all the family and remind them of many classic moments from the much-loved comedy series.

The Taming of the Shrew William Shakespeare - The Taming of the Shrew begins with a framing device, often referred to as the Induction, in which a mischievous nobleman tricks a drunken tinker named Christopher Sly into believing he is actually a nobleman himself. The nobleman then has the play performed for Slys diversion. The main plot depicts the courtship of Petruchio, a gentleman of Verona, and Katherina, the headstrong, obdurate shrew. Initially, Katherina is an unwilling participant in the relationship, but Petruchio tempers her with various psychological torments (the "taming") until she becomes a compliant and obedient bride. The subplot features a competition between the suitors of Katherinas more desirable sister, Bianca.

The Two Gentlemen of Verona is a comedy by William Shakespeare from early in his career. It has the smallest cast of any of Shakespeares plays, and is the first of his plays in which a heroine dresses as a boy. It deals with the themes of friendship and infidelity. The highlight of the play is considered by some to be Launce, the clownish servant of Proteus, and his dog Crab, to whom "the most scene-stealing non-speaking role in the canon" has been attributed.

Titus Andronicus may be Shakespeares earliest tragedy; it is believed to have been written sometime between 1584 and the early 1590s. It depicts a Roman general who is engaged in a cycle of revenge with his enemy Tamora, the Queen of the Goths. The play is by far Shakespeares bloodiest work. It lost popularity during the Victorian era because of its gore, and has only recently begun to revive its fortunes.

July 2018 marks the 70th anniversary of the National Health Service Act. Owen Sheers, the author of Pink Mistand the BAFTA nominated The Green Hollow, has created a virtuosic film-poem to coincide with the Vox Pictures/BBC production broadcast to mark the occasion. To Provide All People is the intimate story of the N.H.S in British society today. Depicting 24 hours in the service, with a regional hospital at the centre of the action, the poem charts an emotional and philosophical map of the N.H.S against the personal experiences that lie its heart; from patients to surgeons, porters to midwives. This is a world of transformative pains, triumphs, losses and celebrations that joins us all in our universal experiences of health and sickness, birth and death, regardless of race, gender or wealth.Based upon over 70 hours of interviews, the work is punctuated with the historical narrative of the birth of the N.H.S Act - from its origins in a local miners scheme in Tredegar in Wales, through multiple hearings, amendments and battles with the press, the B.M.A and the Conservative party, to its coming into effect in July 1948. To Provide All People is a work that excavates what the N.H.S. represents and means - on a personal and national level - and paints an authentic, tonal picture of a rare social phenomenon, illuminating with exquisite sensitivity and power why the ethos at its heart should always be protected.

The two new Talking Heads were recorded for the BBC during the exceptional circumstances of coronavirus lockdown in the spring of 2020, directed by Nicholas Hytner and performed by Sarah Lancashire and Monica Dolan.The book contains a substantial preface by Nicholas Hytner and an introduction to each, by Alan Bennett.
