Last year, we braved the cold Vancouver autumn to visit the set of War For The Planet Of The Apes. Here's what happened...

The great maverick directors of the 70s and 80s went to some very strange places in their quest for realism. Werner Herzog coaxed a legion groaning extras to drag a full-size, very heavy steamboat up the side of a Central American mountain in Fitzcarraldo. William Friedkin’s underappreciated masterpiece The Sorcerer sent Roy Scheider off in a truck over a long and very rickety-looking bridge. Francis Ford Coppola’s Apocalypse Now famously took in heart attacks, purloined corpses and fits of megalomania in the deeper, darker parts of the Philippines (standing in for Vietnam).

If you ask people about the places where they most enjoy spending time, many will mention their local pub. Like the cinema, it's a place for escapism, for shared experience and, sometimes, for surprises. Laurie Cansfield decided to try and capture the atmosphere of his local pub on film, resulting in short documentary The Vaults. Now he's laying out plans for a follow-up, Proper Pubs, that will visit locations all around the North East of England. He took time out of his schedule to talk to us about what inspired him.
Going down the pub.
Laurie's filmmaking career began with a screenwriting course at Newcastle's Tyneside Cinema. "I had been living in Barcelona for three years and started writing short stories as a hobby, and the course sounded like fun and an opportunity to try a different type of creative writing. I met some smashing people on the course (including Peter Dillon who ran.

To view the oppression of women under the Taliban as 'a small price to pay' is breathtaking
James Fergusson's claim that many Afghan women saw oppression under the Taliban as "a small price to pay" after the conflict of the 1990s is breathtaking ("Should British soldiers be dying for the rights of Afghan women? No", Comment).
Are Afghan women supposed to be grateful to a group that prevented all girls from attending school, confined women to their own homes, and left women's healthcare in shreds?
Whether or not the Taliban leadership saw themselves as oppressors, the fact is they were. And they still are. On the same day that Mr Fergusson's article appeared, the Taliban stoned to death a young man and woman for the "crime" of adultery.
The need for Afghan women to have a direct say in their future – as required under Un resolutions (1325, 1820) – has never been more important.
