LEONARDO DI CAPRIO in THE 11th HOUR
"The truth of the matter is, Gore's film was a launching platform for this one" – Di Caprio. "I expected something impressive... But The 11th Hour takes the debate about the environment to a whole new level. It places the problems we're now mostly aware of in the context of something bigger... It is shockingly ambitious, and it works"The Ecologist.

FILMING THE DA VINCI CODE
Continuing our series of films with a Shoreham connection (?!) hear how Tom Hanks et al descended on Shoreham Airport to shoot scenes in this hit of 2006 and how Brighton businessmen had money in the venture. Followed by the film: it's a cracking good thriller (Hanks, Audrey Tatou, Ian McKellen) and may just change your views about Christmas.

SECRETS OF SHOREHAM
Presentation and Discussion
Talk by Andy Horton

What all the people of Shoreham should know about their town. And what is not written in Henry Cheal's books or in Freddie Feest's Shoreham Herald columns.
Bring your critical facilities with you, because lots of the material is new thinking.
Written under the pseudonym of Questor Stanton, the format asks questions and then I attempt to find out the answers. 
e.g .Who were the first Shorehamites? Where was Pende? What does the name 
Hulkesmouth mean? How did the Marlipins get its name? Who were the Butterfly Collectors?
