@AvantiWestCoast Hello, I'm trying to buy tickets for two 14-year-olds from Manchester to London, but your phone person said they need an adult with them. But that's not true, is it? I was previously told they can travel if they both have letters of permission from parents.

You can't buy tickets without an adult on your website, which is why I was told to try on the phone. I'm not sure your staff member knew the rules.

This ageing and ailing prisoner on the brink of release – they all believe – is raging against his own dying light, angrily insisting he can work as hard anyone amid increasing confusion. A deeply moving performance by Christopher Fairbank.

Who else? Joshua James is on screen for a matter of minutes, even counting his haunting of Bix’s dreams, but his puppyishly eager explanation of the appalling interrogation method he has helped devise is very genuinely unsettling.
