# TSS St Julien (1925)

TSS St Julien was a passenger vessel built for the Great Western Railway in 1925.

## History

TSS St Julien was built by John Brown and Company as one of a pair of vessels, with TSS St Helier for the Weymouth to the Channel Islands service. She arrived in Weymouth from the Clyde on 4 May 1925.
The captain, Charles Hamon Langdon, was found dead in his cabin during a voyage from the Channel Islands to Weymouth in September 1927.
She had two funnels but one was a dummy and this was removed in 1928.
On 1 October 1937 she went to the assistance of the French steamer Briseis which had struck the rocks near Grand Roccque, Guernsey.
When war broke out in 1939 she was put to use ferrying troops but very quickly converted into a hospital ship. She took part in the evacuation of British troops from Dunkirk and Cherbourg in 1940. She spent the remainder of the war as a hospital ship, including a period operating in the Mediterranean and supporting the D Day landings. She was damaged by a mine on 7 June 1944 but repaired and resumed service on 24 June 1944.
Afterwards she returned to Weymouth for further railway service which lasted until 27 September 1960. She was sent to Van Heyghen Freres, Ghent in March 1961 for scrapping.

# George Pollock (barrister)

## Biography

Born in 1901, Pollock served in the Merchant Navy during the First World War and then worked as a journalist with the Leamington Spa Courier. He was a sub-editor at the Daily Chronicle between 1922 and his call to the bar in 1928. He carried on working in journalism alongside his legal practice until 1933 when he focused solely on the bar. In 1934, he published a biography of Sir Henry McCardie. In 1938, he made legal history when he secured the acquittal of a woman charged with murder at petty session; before that, prisoners charged with murder were inevitably committed for trial at the assizes.
After the Second World War broke out, he served with the Army's Special Forces which included preparing for a German invasion and postings in Egypt and Italy; he also trained the saboteurs who destroyed the Norwegian heavy water plant in 1943. In 1944 he was appointed Chief Judicial Officer to the Allied Control Commission in Italy and oversaw trials of war criminals.
After returning to England he was Recorder of Sudbury between 1946 and 1951. He was made a King's Counsel in 1951. Three years later he retired from the bar and took up the directorship of the British Employers' Confederation. He oversaw the BEC's merger with the Federation of British Industries and the National Association of British Manufacturers to form the Confederation of British Industry in 1965; he did not stand for the director-generalship of the new CBI. Pollock also served on several national advisory councils and was a member of International Labour Organisation (1963–68), the government's Donovan Commission from 1965 to 1968, and the council of the University of Sussex (1974–77).

# Shirebourne brook

The Shirebourne is a brook that rises in King George's Fields, Hadley, and eventually joins the Pymmes Brook. It may have marked the historic county boundary between Hertfordshire and Middlesex.

## Location

The Shirebourne rises in King George's Fields, Hadley. It is culverted between the eastern side of the Fields at Bosworth Road until it emerges overground at the south-west corner of the Victoria Recreation Ground in New Barnet. There it flows along the southern side of the park, and under Park Road, after which it joins the Pymmes Brook.

## In history

The brook may originally have been named Scirbrunan in old English which translates as "shirebourn" meaning "county stream". The name Shirebourne appears in the Barnet Manor Rolls in 1277 and the upper reaches of the Shirebourne in the modern King George's Fields were known in 1556 as Sheredyche. The manor rolls for 1699 mention a field known as Sherborne Meadow and the index to the 1817 enclosure map mentions Sherbourn Field abutting the Shirebourne. The brook may be the one that formed the county boundary between Hertfordshire and Middlesex.

## Reception

Terry Ramsey of The Daily Telegraph gave the series three out of five stars and said that "despite the jumpy style and occasionally annoying chat, it had a lot of appealing science packed in, all neatly wrapped up so it didn’t even feel like we were learning. And it served as a useful reminder of just how much we rely on electricity." The Independent's Tom Sutcliffe said "everything from presentational style to the level of the material it contains it's essentially a children's programme. In fact, it calls for a new verb: to Bluepeterise, a shorthand for the increasingly fashionable technique of dividing the content up between three puppyishly eager presenters". Lucy Mangan, writing for The Guardian called it "terrible".

## DVD release

The series was released in the original English as a region 2 DVD set by a Dutch company in 2015.

# Shire of Yea

The Shire of Yea was a local government area about 110 kilometres (68 mi) northeast of Melbourne, the state capital of Victoria, Australia. The shire covered an area of 1,392.32 square kilometres (537.6 sq mi), and existed from 1869 until 1994. The shire's population was dominated by the town of Yea.

## History

Yea was first incorporated as a road district on 1 February 1869, and became a shire on 28 November 1873.
Its boundaries changed a number of times throughout its existence:

The Shire was described in the 1949 Australian Blue Book as an elevated area given to pastoral and dairying pursuits, along with sheep and cattle grazing. By 1994, 51% of Yea's land was under cultivation as farmland, with the Kinglake National Park and Yea River Regional Park, as well as the Murrindindi Forest, the latter being important to Yea's economy for timber production, accounting for much of the rest.
On 18 November 1994, the Shire of Yea was abolished, and along with the Shire of Alexandra and parts of the City of Whittlesea and the Shires of Broadford, Eltham, Euroa and Healesville, was merged into the newly created Shire of Murrindindi.

# Frances Eldridge

Frances Eldridge was a stage and screen actor in the silent era of cinema. She appeared in short films made on the East Coast before Hollywood rose to dominance.
Frances Eldridge was born in Staten Island, New York City, to parents who were both stage actors.
Eldridge began in stage acting, with an appearance in The Bashful Hero with Ernest Truex, before moving into motion pictures in 1920. She later claimed to have won a newspaper competition that led to a role in The Half-Way Girl with Doris Kenyon but this film was released in 1925 so it was likely she was citing a more recent role for publicity purposes.
Her first appearance was probably in Madonnas and Men by B. A. Rolfe, produced by the Peerless Pictures Studios at Fort Lee, New Jersey. She appeared in two further Rolfe films: Wings of Pride and A Good Woman. From this, she was cast by Henry MacRae in God's Crucible (also known as The Foreigner).
By late October 1920, Eldridge had signed to Superior Pictures Corporation to appear in two two-reel comedies a month. The first of these was The Little Liar. In November she was sent to the motion picture exhibition in Atlanta, Georgia, along with other stars such as Lillian Gish. One day of the exhibition was declared Frances Eldridge Day and culminated in a ball.
However, by March 1921, Eldridge brought a lawsuit against World Motion Pictures for failure to pay for her time or costumes in The Little Liar.
In July 1921 she was reported to be considering an offer to enter vaudeville. Her last appearance on stage is as 'Friquette' in The Red Poppy, alongside Bela Lugosi in his first US stage appearance, in December 1922.
She then left acting to tour Europe, returning to America and the stage in 1925, where she appeared with Ernest Truex again in Six Cylinder Love.
