Press Packs

Guy of Gisborne's soldiers may be used to being roughed-up by outlaws, but one unfortunate guard found himself on the receiving end of more than he'd expected when newcomer Joanne Froggatt made an immediate impact in BBC One's rip-roaring version of Robin Hood.

"It was my very first scene," says Joanne, who plays Kate, a spirited Locksley village girl who joins Robin's band. "I'm seized by some of Gisborne's henchmen guards, and I was supposed to kick one of the stunt team and run off. We practised it five times but, for some reason, on the sixth go, instead of aiming to the side of his head where I should have been kicking, my foot went into his mouth and split his lip. I was horrified. Fortunately, he was okay. I bought him a bottle of whisky to add to my many apologies and to show how sorry I was."

David Keith-Lucas (1911 - 1997):
Aeronautical engineer

David Keith-Lucas was born in 1911 in Cambridge. His father was Keith Lucas, a prominent physiologist and Fellow of Trinity College but also a director of the Cambridge Scientific Instrument Company. On the outbreak of War he joined the Royal Aircraft Factory at Farnborough where he investigated complaints from the Front that the existing aircraft compasses were of little use. Lucas discovered that errors were caused by vibration and the vertical component of the earth's magnetic field when an aircraft turned off a northerly course; his work led to the development of the RAF Mark II compass. He also worked on bomb aiming devices, developing the first type to use gyroscopic control, and developed the "photo-kymograph" to accurately measure aircraft oscillations. He was killed in a mid-air collision in 1916; his widow changed the family surname to "Keith-Lucas" in his memory.
