HAVING spent years of his work­ ing life uttering the immortal . phrase “I have a cunning plan...”,


Tony Robinson started to believe it. .


. Now, by popular demand, he is


touring his one-man show, stopping off at the Burnley Mechanics on ■Wednesday February 22nd, along the waj'.


Tony’s “Cunning Night Out” has


received critical acclaim and made audiences laugh, cry sing along and retch while also answering the ques­ tion uppermost on everybody’s minds - how did a man who made his name as a stinking, turnip-lov­ ing simpleton in “Blackadder” hit the big time by grubbing around in the mud, alongside men with dubi­ ous fashion sense in “’fime Team”, before achieving superstar status by rolling up his trousers to wade through urine in “The Worst Jobs' In History”? Tony Robinson’s career has been


truly dazzling. He is one of the UK’s best-loved and busiest per­ formers. ■ Following the success of his chan­ nel 4 documentary, “The Real Da Vinci Code”, his latest TV ruse has been to dive onto the Titanic for “Tony Robinson’s Titanic Adven­ ture”. He toured Uganda, Greece,


Israel and the US for his Channel 4 show “Revelations” and has just

on practice driving sessions with learn­ ers are being offered places on the revo­ lutionary new course, which has been devised by Lancashire County Council. The Pre-Pass Support Scheme, which


is still in its pilot stage, is the first of its kind in the UK. The course consists of an evening theory class and a two-hour practical session and for a limited time the course is free. The course highlights the role that


accomp an y in g drivers can p lay in actively helping to keep their learners safe on the roads. While the responsibil­ ity of teaching lies firmly with the pro­ fessional instructor, friends and rela­ tives can provide time and support for ■

Out takes you on a helter-skelter journey following the twists and turns of a career that has spanned more than 40 years. But let’s not forget his beginnings


as a precocious child actor playing the Artful Dodger in the original AVest End production of “Oliver”. His autobiographical tale is told


at breakneck speed as, with help from the audience, he cunningly weaves together the disparate strands of his life into an evening’s madcap entertainment. Make sure you own cunning plan

charity auction and lots of other fun activities, plus of course the sumptuous fare for which the Inn at Whitewell is renowned. The evening will begin in grand
