National Film and Television School

La National Film and Television School (NFTS) è una scuola di cinema fondata nel 1971. Insiste negli studi di Beaconsfield, nel Buckinghamshire, nei pressi dei Pinewood Studios. Storia L'istituzione nasce con il nome di National Film School nel 1971, dopo quattro anni di sforzi per creare un'istituzione che incoraggiasse nuovi talenti nel cinema inglese. Il suo primo direttore è Colin Young, che la suddivide in quattro dipartimenti: produzione, regia, montaggio e suono. La scuola cambia nome in National Film and Television School nel 1982, in parte perché molti suoi laureati hanno fatto carriera nel piccolo schermo. Nel 1993 Henning Camre, precedentemente direttore della Danish Film School, sostituisce Colin Young alla direzione della NFTS. Camre lascia la direzione nel 1998 a Stephen Bayly, ex studente della scuola, diventato produttore cinematografico. Bayly riduce la durata dello studio da 3 a 2 anni e richiede al Royal College of Art di convalidare i corsi della NFTS. Nel 2003, Nik Powell, tra i principali produttori del Regno Unito, diviene il nuovo direttore. Powell amplia il programma introducendo nuovi corsi (ad esempio effetti speciali o varie master-class) ed stringe una serie di accordi di sviluppo con emittenti indipendenti e società di produzione per aiutare i neolaureati della scuola a iniziare la loro carriera. Viene raggiunto un accordo con neSTA (National Endowment for Science, Technology and the Arts) per lanciare un programma a sostegno dei laureati di tutte le scuole di cinema nel Regno Unito per fornire supporto alle nuove aziende che entrano nell'industria cinematografica. Nel 2017, Powell si dimette dalla carica di direttore della NFTS; il suo successore è Jon Wardle. La scuola può vantarsi di essere l'unica scuola di cinema nel Regno Unito ad avere i propri studi e ad avere mezzi vicini alle aziende professionali. Un centinaio di film vengono girati ogni anno nella scuola. Al 2021 la NFTS registra entrate per complessive 16.214.975 sterline. Riconoscimenti Nel 2018, la scuola ha ricevuto il BAFTA Outstanding British Contribution to Cinema Award alla 71ª edizione dei British Academy Film Awards.

St Mary's Church, Widnes

St Mary's Church is in the West Bank area of Widnes, Cheshire, England. The church is recorded in the National Heritage List for England as a designated Grade II* listed building. It is an active Anglican parish church in the diocese of Liverpool, the archdeaconry of Warrington and the deanery of Widnes. Together with the churches of St Paul, Widnes, and St Mary, Hale, it forms the South Widnes Team. It has been described as "the last great church masterpiece" created by the Lancaster architects Austin and Paley. History The first church in West Bank, known as Widnes Dock Church and dedicated to St Mary, was opened in 1858. This church was never completed and consisted only of the nave. It had been built on chemical waste which subsided, leading to bulging of the walls and twisting of the roof. In the early 1900s a new site was obtained near the promenade, and money was raised for a new church. The foundation stone was laid on 14 May 1908 and the church was opened on 12 November 1910. The church was designed by Austin and Paley, cost £16,669 in total (equivalent to £1,700,000 in 2025), which included £5,400 for the site, and provided seating for 770 people. Architecture Exterior The church is built in red flecked sandstone, and the nave roof is in Ruabon tiles. The aisle roofs are in lead. Its plan consists of a five-bay nave with a clerestory, north and south aisles which embrace a west tower, and north and south transepts, a chancel. The northwest porch is set at an angle to the church and the south porch is perpendicular to it. The church is built in Perpendicular style. The north transept is in one bay and includes the organ. The south transept is in three bays and forms a Lady chapel. The tower has a projecting octagonal staircase on the southeast corner and buttresses on the southeast corner. An inscribed frieze of the Te Deum runs around the tower and below the parapet of the south and east sides of the church. Interior The furnishings are of oak and were designed by the architects. The font is made of Darley Dale stone. The stained glass in the east window depicts the Ascension and an Apocalyptic Vision and was designed by Shrigley and Hunt. The three-manual organ was built by Wm. Hill and Son in 1902 and restored and enlarged between 1936 and 1947 by Henry Willis & Sons. External features An octagonal wayside pulpit is set into the boundary wall of the church. Also designed by Austin and Paley, it is constructed in red sandstone and approached by six steps. The text "Go out into the highways and compel them to come in that my house may be filled" (from Luke 14:23) is cut into its masonry. It is listed at Grade II.

Церковь Святой Этельдреды

Церковь Святой Этельдреды (англ. St Etheldreda's Church) — церковь на территории Или-Плэйс в Холборне (Лондон), состоит из часовни и подземной усыпальницы. Построена церковь во второй половине XIII века в честь Святой Этельдреды и является старейшей по времени постройки действующей католической церковью Англии. Вначале это была часовня, одна из частей подворья монастыря Или. После 1534 года в связи с запретом Католической церкви в Англии, часовня была закрыта, некоторое время крипта использовалась в качестве таверны. В 1620—1622 годах, несмотря на запрет, католические мессы проводились, так как часовня была передана Диего Сармиенто, графу Гондомару, послу Испании. Во времена правления Оливера Кромвеля (1649—1660) была разрушена большая часть подворья и уничтожены сады, но часовня уцелела. Не пострадала она и от Великого Лондонского пожара 1666 года. В 1772 году комплекс был продан сюрвейеру Чарльзу Коулу, который разобрал сооружения, а часовня была отреставрирована в Георгианском стиле. В 1820 году была открыта церковь для ирландцев, но вскоре закрыта. С 1829 по 1836 год в здании вновь проводились католические мессы, но позже здание храма было передано Епископальной церкви Уэльса. В 1873 году здание было куплено католическим священником Уильямом Локхартом. Под его руководством церковь была перестроена в изначальном стиле. С тех пор и до настоящего времени в церкви проводятся службы и обряды (крещения, венчания, отпевания). В 1925 году зданию был присвоен статус памятника. В 1941 году во время «Лондонского блица» немецкая бомба пробила крышу и уничтожила некоторые витражи. В 1960-х годах в церкви были установлены статуи католических мучеников, пострадавших во время гонений при Генрихе VIII и Елизавете I. Среди них Эдмунд Дженнингс, Свитун Уэллс, Анна Лайн, Маргарет Уорд, Джон Форест, Эдвард Джонс, Джон Роуч, Джон Хафтон.

Bethel Chapel, Guildford

Bethel Chapel, The Bars, Guildford, is an independent reformed Baptist church located in the heart of the historic town of Guildford. The Church was established in 1879 and the present building opened in 1910. The congregation started in 1878 when a few people left the Old Baptist Chapel in Castle Street, dissatisfied with the liturgy there. They hired the basement hall in the Ward Street Halls to hold services in, and on 14 April 1879, a Church was formed on the basis of the Gospel Standard Articles of Faith. A few months later the Church obtained a piece of land in nearby Martyr Road where they erected a temporary chapel built of corrugated iron and known as 'the Tin Chapel'. The name 'Bethel' was given to the building. Although several men who preached at the Tin Chapel were asked to become pastor, none of them accepted the call and the ministry was carried on by visiting preachers. By the early years of the 20th century the church felt the need for a more permanent building. Land was purchased in The Bars, the next road north, where a new chapel was built in red brick with round-headed windows outlined in grey brick. The new Bethel was opened in June 1910, Mr. J.K. Popham of Brighton and Mr. Calcott of Coventry preached at the opening services. The old building was taken over by the Railway Mission. Due to the enclosed nature of the site most light enters the chapel through a large dormer window above the front door. The whole building has a pleasing arts-and-crafts feeling about it. This building, with schoolroom, hall, vestry and toilets in a sympathetic extension added in 1930, is still in use. The original furnishings, pulpit, pews and so on are all still in place. Recently the dormer window in the front of the chapel has been repaired. The first pastor of the Bethel was Jabez Wiltshire. Born into a Christian home at Studley in Wiltshire, he was brought into concern for his soul early in life. After conversion he was baptised at Zion Chapel in Trowbridge in April 1914 and began to preach in 1917. In 1925 Mr. Wiltshire accepted a call to the pastorate at Bethel, expressing a desire to remain in his post until death. He died on 12 June 1953, at the age of sixty-one. He left four children. There is a small memorial to Mr. Wiltshire in the chapel. The second pastor at Bethel, Mr. P. Buss, served from 1981 to 1985. On 1 January 2018 Mr James Taylor became the current pastor.

Bethel Chapel Guildford

De Bethel Strict Baptist Chapel is een monumentale Strict Baptist-kapel tussen The Bars en de Martyr Road in de stad Guildford in Surrey. De kapel is gebouwd in 1910, wat zichtbaar is op een ingemetselde gedenksteen. De kerk is gebouwd op dezelfde plaats als haar voorganger in 1879. In 1878 verliet een groep mensen de Old Baptist Chapel in de Castle Street. Op 14 april 1879 werd een kerk geopend op de huidige locatie. De diensten in de kapel zijn niet veranderd sinds de opening. De kleine kapel kreeg in Guildford al snel de bijnaam de Tin Chapel. De gemeente groeide en in 1910 werd een nieuw gebouw geopend, dat in 1930 werd uitgebreid met een klaslokaal. Sindsdien is het gebouw niet meer veranderd. De eerste predikant van de gemeente was Jabez Wiltshire. Hij begon als predikant in de Zion Chapel te Trowbridge in april 1914 en nam in 1935 een beroep aan naar Guildford. Tot zijn dood in 1953 diende hij de gemeente. In de kerk is een gedenksteen aanwezig voor deze predikant. Van 1981 tot 1985 diende ds. P. Buss als tweede predikant de gemeente, sindsdien is ze vacant. Sinds de oprichting van de gemeente in 1878 heeft de familie Risbridger altijd een belangrijke rol gespeeld in het kerkelijk leven. In 2006 is een orgel geplaatst in de kerk.

Quatrième socle de Trafalgar Square

Le quatrième socle de Trafalgar Square ((en) Fourth Plinth ) est l'un des quatre piédestaux situés en chacun des coins de Trafalgar Square, place publique de Londres, capitale du Royaume-Uni. Socle de l'angle Nord-Ouest, il a la particularité de ne porter aucune statue. Histoire Une statue équestre du roi Guillaume IV du Royaume-Uni devait à l'origine être érigée sur le socle. Depuis 1999, différentes sculptures et œuvres d'art sont temporairement installées sur celui-ci. Réalisations contemporaines En 2010, l'artiste Yinka Shonibare commissionné par l'Autorité du Grand Londres, produit Nelson's Ship in a Bottle (en), une sculpture de 5 mètres de long. L'œuvre est ensuite transférée en 2012 au National Maritime Museum. Le 25 juillet 2013, il fut installé un coq bleu de 4,7 m de haut. Ce coq a été réalisé par l'artiste allemande Katharina Fritsch qui y voit « un symbole du renouveau, du réveil et de la force ». Cependant, cette œuvre est critiquée et la Thorney Island Society (une association de défense du patrimoine) y voyant un symbole du chauvinisme français. Après qu'un membre de la milice terroriste État islamique a détruit un authentique Lamassu en pierre avec une perceuse à percussion en 2015, l'artiste irako-américain Michael Rakowitz recrée en 2018 ce démon protecteur de la Mésopotamie antique. Le Lamassu est composé de 10 500 boîtes de sirop de dattes irakiennes vides, représentatives d'une industrie autrefois réputée décimée par les guerres en Irak. Pour faire référence aux biens culturels perdus et détruits de l'Irak et rappeler ce qui n'existe plus sur Terre, son œuvre d'art, The Invisible Enemy Should Not Exist, est placée sur le « quatrième socle ».

Marlborough Road (London Underground)

Marlborough Road ist eine geschlossene Station der London Underground an der Metropolitan Line. Sie gehört zu einer Gruppe dreier stillgelegter Stationen, die zwischen den heutigen Stationen Baker Street und Finchley Road lagen. Die beiden anderen sind Lord’s und Swiss Cottage (nicht zu verwechseln mit der gleichnamigen Station der heutigen Jubilee Line). Die Eröffnung der Station fand im Rahmen der Streckeninbetriebnahme zwischen Swiss Cottage und Baker Street am 13. April 1868 statt. Die Bahnsteige lagen in einem überdachten Einschnitt, das Stationsgebäude befand sich an der Ecke Finchley Road und Queen’s Grove. Die Station wurde stets wenig genutzt. Am 1. Oktober 1929 traten stark gekürzte Öffnungszeiten in Kraft; die Station war nur noch an Wochentagen von 9:30 Uhr bis 17:00 Uhr geöffnet. Die Schließung erfolgte am 19. November 1939, um die Metropolitan Line, die damals wie heute weit ins Umland fährt, zu beschleunigen. Der Anschluss an das U-Bahn-Netz wurde durch die Eröffnung des Stanmore-Zweigs der Bakerloo Line (heute Teil der Jubilee Line) am darauf folgenden Tag sichergestellt, mit der Station St. John’s Wood, die nur wenige Gehminuten entfernt liegt. Das Stationsgebäude wird heute von einem chinesischen Restaurant genutzt. Die Bahnsteiganlagen sind nicht mehr erhalten. Stattdessen errichtete man zwei kurze Behelfsbahnsteige, die heute als Notausstieg dienen. Literatur J.E. Connor: London’s disused Underground stations.

Marlborough Road tube station

Marlborough Road is a disused London Underground station in St John's Wood, northwest London NW8, England. It opened in April 1868 on the Metropolitan & St. John's Wood Railway, the first northward extension from Baker Street of the Metropolitan Railway (now the Metropolitan line). It is located at the junction of Finchley Road and Queen's Grove. In the mid-1930s, the Metropolitan line was suffering congestion at the south end of its main route, where trains from its many branches shared the limited capacity between Finchley Road and Baker Street. To ease this congestion, new deep-level tunnels were constructed between Finchley Road and the Bakerloo line tunnels at Baker Street; then, commencing on 20 November 1939, the Metropolitan's services toward Stanmore were transferred to the Bakerloo line (they are now on the Jubilee line) and ran to Baker Street through the new tunnels. Upon the transfer, Marlborough Road station was closed and replaced by St John's Wood station, then on the Bakerloo line; it had been little used, except (owing to its close proximity to Lord's Cricket Ground) during the cricket season. Shots of the remains of the platforms, and an outside shot of the station building and booking hall—which at the time was in use as a steak restaurant—were included in Metro-Land, a 1973 documentary presented by John Betjeman. The building housed a Chinese restaurant until 2009 and now contains a substation installed as part of the power upgrade programme to support the introduction of S stock on the Metropolitan line. Marlborough Road itself was renamed Marlborough Place in the 1950s.

Marlborough Road (metropolitana di Londra)

Marlborough Road è una stazione fantasma della metropolitana di Londra, situata sulla linea Metropolitan tra le odierne stazioni di Baker Street e Finchley Road. Storia Marlborough Road aprì il 13 aprile 1868 sulla Metropolitan & St. John's Wood Railway, la prima estensione verso nord della Metropolitan Railway, oggi linea Metropolitan. Alcune volte, sulle cartine, la mappa era segnata come Marlboro Road per aumentare lo spazio disponibile per eventuali altri nomi. La stazione si trovava all'incrocio fra Finchley Road e Queen's Road (oggi rinominata Queen's Grove). Prendeva il nome dalla vicina Marlborough Road, a sua volta rinominata Marlborough Place negli anni cinquanta. La stazione, quando era aperta, era usata soprattutto durante la stagione di cricket per la sua vicinanza con la stazione di Lord's e con lo stadio del Lord's Cricket Ground. Chiusura Verso la metà degli anni trenta la Metropolitan Line soffriva di congestione, soprattutto nel tratto meridionale della linea, dove le diverse diramazioni condividevano il collo di bottiglia del tratto fra Baker Street e Finchley Road. Per combattere la congestione venne costruito un tunnel di profondità che collegava direttamente Finchley Road con le piattaforme di Baker Street sulla linea Bakerloo. Il 20 novembre 1939 tutta la diramazione verso Stanmore iniziò a essere servita dalla Bakerloo. Tutte le stazioni sul tratto della Metropolitan Line fra Baker Street e Finchley Road chiusero quando fu aperta una nuova stazione, St John's Wood, sulla Bakerloo. La stazione oggi La stazione oggi è utilizzata solamente come uscita d'emergenza. È accessibile da una porta che si affaccia su Finchley Road. L'edificio di superficie venne affittato negli anni settanta ad un ristorante cinese, chiuso nel 2008, ed è stato attualmente convertito in una sottostazione elettrica. Dopo essere entrati c'è una scalinata che conduce alle piattaforme, che sono ancora parzialmente intatte e sono diventate il luogo di pratica di alcuni artisti di strada locali.

Marlborough Road (metrostation)

Marlborough Road is een voormalig station van de metro van Londen aan de Metropolitan Line. Nadat op 10 januari 1863 de eerste metrolijn ter wereld, de Metropolitan Railway (MR) was geopend werd aan beide uiteinden gewerkt aan verlengingen. Daarnaast werd een zijlijn naar Hampstead gepland vanaf Baker Street, de Metropolitan and St. John's Wood Railway. Op 13 april 1868 opende het eerste deel, waaronder Marlborough Road, tussen Baker Street en Swiss Cottage. Het enkelsporige traject werd bij Baker Street via een wissel gekoppeld aan de MR die tot 1869 ook iedere 20 minuten een metro liet rijden. Het hele traject ligt in een tunnel die op een aantal plaatsen onderbroken is door een sleuf in de open lucht die zodoende de mogelijkheid biedt om stoom en rook kwijt te kunnen. In 1882 werd alsnog dubbelspoor gelegd toen de lijn werd geïntegreerd in de MR. Door de verlengingen en vertakkingen aan de westkant en de nieuwe woonwijken, metroland, in het noordwesten werd de overgang bij Finchley Road van de viersporige bovengrondse lijn op de dubbelsporige tunnel in toenemende mate een flessenhals. In 1933 werd het OV in Londen genationaliseerd in de London Passenger Transport Board die met het New Works Programme 1935 – 1940 kwam om knelpunten in het metronet op te lossen en nieuwe wijken op de metro aan te sluiten. Een van de maatregelen was de bouw van geboorde tunnels tussen Finchley Road en Baker Street om extra capaciteit te creëren. Deze tunnels werden bij Baker Street aangesloten op de Bakerloo line en bij Finchley Road op de sporen die de Metropolitan Line voor de stopdiensten naar Stanmore gebruikte. Marlborough Road werd gesloten en op 20 november 1939 vervangen door St. John's Wood aan de nieuwe Stanmoretak van de Bakerloo line. Marlborough Road zelf werd in de jaren 1950 omgedoopt tot Marlborough Place. Foto's van de overblijfselen van de perrons en een buitenopname van het stationsgebouw en de boekingshal - die op dat moment in gebruik was als steakrestaurant - werden opgenomen in Metro-Land, een documentaire uit 1973 gepresenteerd door John Betjeman. Het gebouw huisvestte tot 2009 een Chinees restaurant en bevat nu een onderstation dat is geïnstalleerd als onderdeel van de verbeterde stroomvoorziening ten behoeve van de instroom van het S materieel op de Metropolitan Line.
