What happens when a Rangers fan and Celtic fan are locked in a
prison cell together on the day of an Old Firm Match? It is through

it becomes part of one's identity and is inculcated by family and
society. However, the book is not limited to Scotland but refers to
every peace process in the world, where common ground and a shared
humanity is found through responding to the needs of others. Now it
is up to these two fans to start their personal peace process to

New England, 1820: The isolated town of Sleepy Hollow is disrupted
by the arrival of a new schoolteacher, Ichabod Crane, who
challenges the town's superstitions with science, reason and fact.
The locals instantly mistrust him; but Katrina van Fleet, heiress
to Sleepy Hollow's rich land is charmed by his intellect and
passion. But Ichabod is mistaken: as behind each one of the
villagers' tales lies a dark and bloody truth. As the spirits of
the Hollow Wood grow restless, and as the hooves of the Headless
Horseman thunder ever nearer, Katrina is forced to make a choice
that will change the fate of Sleepy Hollow forever. Based on
Washington Irving's infamous short story, The Legend of Sleepy
Hollow is a powerful and atmospheric musical by Helen Watts and
Eamonn O'Dwyer. It is a story of community; a story of faith, of
blood and belief; a story that asks the simple question: what
happens when good people make bad choices?
James Brent receives a chilling telephone call seemingly from
beyond the grave. His dead wife, Fay, is waiting for him at the
very place she met her grisly end. At his new wife's insistence,
they go to meet her as requested and in the process discover a
terrifying and disturbing truth.
A comedy in four parts about an unremarkable man and the remarkable
women who loved him. From his first encounters as a young man in
1925 to an unexpected reunion late in life, Anthony Spates'
romantic progress is charted against the backdrop of an equally
remarkable old manor house in this hilarious and gently touching
comedy.
