FAYRE

Gas lamps burning on misty

This is the ideal opportunity

mince pie and a tipple of
mulled wine. Local crafters
will be displaying and selling
everything you could
possibly want, from jewellery
and stationery to art and craft
works, and lots more!

GRAHAM
FELLOWS'
FATHER EARTH:
FILM + LIVE Q&A
Sunday 4th December
7.30pm
£13.50
Father Earth is the true story
of one man’s attempt to help
save the planet, by
converting a derelict church
on the Orkney Isles into an
eco-friendly recording
studio. It’s also a fascinating
study of a psychological
power struggle between a
character comedian –
Graham Fellows, and his
long-standing creation –
John Shuttleworth.
Father Earth is also about
family relationships –
specifically between fathers
and sons – and it explores
how in our battle against
extinction, we are often
distracted by personal and
family issues, as they appear
more important and
pressing than the future of
the planet.
The screening will be
followed by a Q&A with
Graham Fellows himself,
giving the audience a
chance to get the first-hand
perspective of a comic
legend.
