This is the incredible true story of the unbreakable bond forged between Treo the world's most highly decorated dog & his handler Sgt. Dave Heyhoe whilst doing the most dangerous job on earth
- sniffing out bombs in Afghanistan. Dave known to his fellow soldiers as 'the Dog Whisperer' & Treo were sent forwards alone & unprotected to detect the Taliban's murderous IEDs. Soon soldiers refused to patrol certain areas unless accompanied by Treo & the pressure on the duo became ever more intense. Dave & Treo would realise they needed each other more than they could have ever imagined. It is a story full of tragedy & triumph pathos & laughter as one man & his best friend dare all to ensure that no lives are lost.

Who would have guessed in the 1960s that Michael Parker a typical young Army officer would turn into one of the most remarkable showmen of his generation? Michael Parker's creativity & originality
- all too often achieved in the face of stifling bureaucracy
- along with an ability to organise down to the last detail
- meant he was in continuous demand to mastermind all kinds of events such as most of the British royal jubilees & birthday celebrations for The Queen the Queen Mother. Other events included London's G7 conference royal weddings in countries such as Jordan victory commemorations charity events & some of the world's largest military tattoos
- Berlin Edinburgh & the London Tournament. He records his triumphs & disasters & the inside story of some spectacular c**k-ups
- although to the spectators & television audiences all might have seemed fine. The pundits thought The Queen's Golden Jubilee in 2002 would be a non-event
- Who would come?" they said. But Michael Parker had no doubt that he could lay on a show that was worthy of the Queen
- & of Great Britain. He was right & proved the critics wrong
- 2 million people flocked down the Mall to Buckingham Palace to enjoy the celebrations he had helped organise. Some 25 years earlier his complex plans for the Queen's 1977 Silver Jubilee bonfires definitely did not go to plan
- much to the Queen's amusement
- & as for those fireworks in Hyde Park to celebrate Prince Charles & Diana's wedding
- that's another story.. .as is the escaping python at the Berlin Tattoo."

Jeremy Vine is one of the most successful broadcasters of recent years & in 2012 clocks up a quarter of a century at the BBC. In It's All News to Me he takes a look back over his career from the very first day when he arrived at broadcasting house (by coincidence an inauspicious news day
- the fateful Black Monday of 1987.) Jeremy explains his big break as a Today programme reporter when he was fired at by a sniper during the early days of the war in Bosnia; he walks us through the corridors of Westminster in the 1990s when he was a political correspondent trying to deal with the likes of Alastair Campbell & Peter Mandelson; he reflects on the steep learning curve that was his posting as African correspondent at the turn of the millennium; & his return to the UK where he was dubbed Paxman's mini-me" on Newsnight. He also explains what it's like presenting Radio 2's lunchtime show & talking to 6 million listeners
- people who as he puts it "have better stories than we do." Written in Jeremy's unmistakably lively & self-deprecating voice It's All News to Me paints a vivid picture of what it's like to be trapped inside the BBC
- arguably the most interesting organisation in the country
- for 25 years. It's also about our obsession with news
- just exactly how & why it happens
- & the power of real life stories versus the media's desire to shape them."

'I loved Jon's book. It's even better than the real thing because you can't hear his voice.' Michael Mc Intyre A control freak looks for love (women who leave wet teaspoons in sugar bowls need not apply). 'I haven't woken up with a cup of tea by the bed for seven years. It seems such a small thing but it's one of a thousand things I miss about having someone around to take care of me. I have spent my entire adult life getting things the way I want them & all I want now is someone to give it all up for.' Is your filing faultless? Your CDs apostrophes cutlery all in the right places? Can you eat a biscuit in the correct way? Then Jon Richardson (single for seven years & counting) could be your ideal man... Living alone in a one bedroom flat in Swindon Jon has had far too much time on his hands to think. In fact to obsess. About almost everything.

It takes him less than 90 seconds to locate a receipt for a pair of shoes he bought in 1997. Over to the filing cabinet & R for receipts S for shoes. But Jon doesn't want to be like this in fact he would quite like to share his life with someone. But who could that someone be? Someone like himself a quarrelsome perfectionist only with breasts & less body hair? Absolutely not. But who exactly is Jon looking for & where will he find her? Faced with a loveless future filled with his own peculiar quirks & perfectionism Jon sets about his search for The One. The question is will he mind her keeping the knives to the left of the forks in the cutlery drawer or organising the CDs by genre & not alphabetically? ...
