The Game
British documentary photographer and social commentator Stuart Roy Clarke has been covering the game of soccer for more than thirty years, focusing his keen eye not just on the players but also the fans, stadiums, cities, and pubs; people and places that reveal the cultural and historical significance of soccer in the UK and beyond, telling intimate stories that we often miss as American fans following the top international clubs from a distance. In 2017-18, Clarke got together with John Williams, a sociologist at the University of Leicester who writes about soccer and its fans, to try to tell the story of the game they love. Their lively conversations, along with a feast of Clarke's exhilar...
Last of the Summer Wine
Only a man with a ferret down his trousers could love Nora Batty. So lock up your ferrets (and Nora Batty!), here come Yorkshire's hilarious adventurers -- three pensioners in four classic capers from the BBC television series which still has England laughing after more than twenty-five years. Nora goes on the rampage when one of Compo's ferrets escapes into her house, Sid decides to install a new bell in the caf, Clegg communicates with plants, and Foggy's interest with a Welsh widow makes the lads too curious to stay put.

The Worst of Kalaki and the Best of Yuss
In 2004, it was widely reported in the British and Zambian press that Roy Clarke, columnist and satirist known as 'Kalaki', on the The Post, Zambia's major independent daily, faced deportation.
