For gaming fans, the Raiders of the Game Cupboard are having their quarterly board gaming event. Opus Theatre Company are presenting ‘Confessions of Honour’ at The Brewhouse which is a witty play about a Victoria Cross Veteran and in Uttoxeter, there’s a Harvest Festival Farmer’s Market with a feast of locally produced foods and crafts.

Also on Saturday, and continuing on Sunday, there’s a Model Boat Speed Records Weekend at Branston Water Park and the chance to get steaming in stretton! The annual Model Boat Speed event attracts competitors from all over the UK as well from abroad.

On Sunday there is a Living History Camp at tutbury Castle which gives you chance to see how our soldiers lived, drilled and cooked before Pot Noodle became readily available.

cineworld cinema highlights this week include ‘Quantum of Solace’, ‘Taken’, ‘Righteous Kill’, ‘Death Race’ (two happy sounding films!), ‘The Duchess’ and ‘Mamma Mia’.

As usual, details of all the above can be found on the InBurton what’s on page.
