Life seems easy for picture-perfect couple Ivy (Olivia Colman) and Theo (Benedict Cumberbatch): successful careers, a loving marriage, great kids. But beneath the façade of their supposed ideal life, a storm is brewing – as Theo’s career nosedives while Ivy’s own ambitions take off, a tinderbox of fierce competition and hidden resentment ignites. THE ROSES is a reimagining of the 1989 classic film The War of the Roses, based on the novel by Warren Adler.

“This remake of the 80s divorce farce is “a piercing black comedy” that is “played with droll perfection” by Benedict Cumberbatch and Olivia Colman” BBC Film Reviews

As it’s been so wet recently the school are on the look out for some new games/puzzles suitable for 4-11 year olds to use for indoor play and at after school clubs. Anything that you no longer use but is in good condition, doesn’t take long to set up or play would be greatly appreciated. You could either drop them off at school or I can pick them up, just drop me an email lucywigley@googlemail.com. Thanks Lucy M
