People around the world have become obsessed with the size of their carbon footprint – and not before time. Show your concern the next time you make your morning cuppa and pop a teabag in the CO2 Mug. It has a heat reactive world map painted on the side so when your boiling water starts to warm the mug the countries will change colour to reveal just how much they produce in carbon emissions on an annual basis. It’s quite enlightening and more than a little bit concerning – nothing a stiff cup of tea (or a dedicated carbon reduction policy) can’t fix though. It’s not too late to change the world – you just need to take it one brew at a time.
Price : £ 9.99

Alan Bennett’s new award-winning play as heard on BBC Radio 3 features the National Theatre cast. “A superb life-enhancing play.” – “Guardian.” “Intensely moving as well as thought-provoking and funny.” – “Daily Telegraph.” After a sell-out national tour and an extended stage run Alan Bennett’s phenomenally successful play transfers to BBC Radio 3. Richard Griffiths Clive Merrison and Frances de la Tour star as part of the National Theatre cast. At a boys’ grammar school in Sheffield eight boys are being coached for the Oxbridge entrance exams. It is the mid-eighties and the main concern of the unruly bunch of bright sixth-formers is getting out starting university – and starting life. At the heart of “The History Boys” are four characters each with contrasting outlooks on teaching and school: Hector an eccentric English teacher with no interest in exams; Irwin a young supply teacher who sees history as ‘entertainment'; Mrs Lintott a traditionalist who teaches ‘history not histrionics'; and a Headmaster obsessed with results. Described as “the richest play Bennett has ever written” (“Financial Times”) staff-room rivalry and the anarchy of adolescence collide in an intensely moving and thought-provoking play. It is the winner of the Olivier Evening Standard Critics’ Circle and South Bank Show Awards for Best New Play.
