Welcome to this latest edition
of your FREE Island Life,
the first of 2013. We start
the year by bringing you an
exclusive interview with actor
Julian Wadham, who has close
connections with the Island, and
has appeared in such film classics
as ‘The English Patient’ and ‘The
Iron Lady’, as well as a host of
TV and stage productions.
Bembridge-based Commander
Roy Hollis was 95 when he sadly
died recently. Roy fought in
four wars including World War
II, and just before he suddenly
passed away I spoke to him
about his amazing life at sea. I
would like to thank his family
for allowing us to produce my
interview as a tribute to him.
We also talk to Island NFU
chairperson Caroline Knox,
and go behind the scenes with
the chief of the IW Ambulance
Service Chris Smith, and Sgt
Dave Sanderson, head of the IW
Roads Policing team.
Mark King reveals that there
is a new Level 42 album on the
horizon, the first the iconic
Island band have made for seven
years. And of course there are
all the usual features including
motoring, health and beauty,
food and drink, countryside,
gardening and much more. So
enjoy your favourite lifestyle
magazine, and please support our
loyal advertisers who make it all
possible.
