Welcome
Welcome to our May
sampler. This month’s cover story is a real treat—an interview with he-who-can-do- no-wrong-in-my-eyes, Richard Armitage. Find out more about
his all-action latest role on page 4. And on the subject of men with powerful personalities, Duncan Bannatyne tells us what he would do if he ruled the world (see page 8). Some of his ideas might surprise you! We also have some great jokes
in our Laughter pages, some fantastic beauty tips, and TV’s Aggie MacKenzie points out ten hidden health hazards in your home—and what to do about them. Click on the button to the left to get a FREE copy of our May issue.
