SUMMARY:Riverside Studios at 50: Goodness Gracious Me in Conversation
DESCRIPTION:A landmark reunion at the place where it all began. Goodness Gracious Me in Conversation brings together the original stars of one of British television’s most celebrated and culturally significant comedy shows\, at Riverside Studios\, Hammersmith\, on Sunday 26 April 2026 at 5pm. \nNina Wadia\, Sanjeev Bhaskar OBE and Kulvinder Ghir are joined by BBC commissioner and producer Jon Plowman CBE — whose credits include Smith & Jones\, French & Saunders\, and Absolutely Fabulous — to look back on the creation\, production\, and enduring cultural impact of their now-legendary series. \nThe story of Goodness Gracious Me began right here at Riverside Studios in 1995\, when it premiered as a live show called Peter Sellers is Dead. From those Riverside roots\, it went on to conquer BBC Radio and then BBC Television as a hilarious and groundbreaking sketch show featuring a British Asian cast\, challenging and reshaping perceptions of British identity along the way. It remains one of the most important comedy series in UK broadcasting history. \nThis is a genuinely unique reunion — a rare opportunity to hear directly from the creative team behind a show that changed British comedy and culture. The event is part of Riverside Studios’ 50th anniversary season celebrating the extraordinary talent that has found a home at the venue since 1976. \nEvery ticket purchased supports Riverside Studios’ continued mission to champion emerging artists and make the arts accessible to all. \nWhen: Sunday 26 April 2026\, 5:00pm–6:30pm (approx.)\nWhere: Riverside Studios\, 101 Queen Caroline Street\, Hammersmith\, London W6 9BN\nTickets: Available at riversidestudios.co.uk

SUMMARY:Singing for the Brain
DESCRIPTION:Join Putney Library every Wednesday from 3-4pm for Singing for the Brain\, a specialized weekly program designed for people with dementia and their carers. This evidence-based activity uses music and singing to support cognitive function\, improve wellbeing\, and provide valuable social connection. \nSinging for the Brain sessions are carefully structured to maximize benefits for people living with dementia. Music engages multiple areas of the brain simultaneously\, helping to stimulate memory\, improve mood\, reduce anxiety\, and maintain communication skills. Even when other forms of expression become difficult\, many people with dementia retain the ability to sing and respond to music. \nLed by trained facilitators\, each session includes familiar songs from different eras\, gentle vocal exercises\, rhythm activities\, and social interaction time. The supportive group environment helps both those with dementia and their carers feel less isolated\, while the focus on preserved abilities rather than lost ones promotes dignity and confidence. \nCarers benefit too\, gaining respite through shared musical enjoyment\, connecting with others in similar situations\, learning techniques they can use at home\, and experiencing positive moments with their loved ones. The hour provides a break from care routines while remaining supportive and purposeful. \nNo musical experience or singing ability is required – participation can be as active or passive as feels comfortable. No registration needed\, simply drop in on Wednesday afternoons. \nFor more information about Singing for the Brain and other wellbeing programs at Putney Library\, contact 020 8780 3085 or email Putney.Library@GLL.org.
