Saturday Magazine - 23/01/2010

This week on the Saturday Magazine programme, we take to the streets to find out if the taxi men in Belfast would give up their job with £26m in the bank. John Toal talks to General Corran Purdon, whose life is worthy of a Hollywood script- escaped from the Nazis, plotted ingenious escapes from the infamous Colditz prison, before getting a hold of the keys to the prison itself! Do you have something that you could nominate for the Landfill Awards? John Naish set up this cheeky award to highlight how much rubbish we see everyday. Motorised ice cream cone anyone? Have you felt outwitted by your eight year olds maths homework? John Toal investigates a new “cheat” book- Maths for Mums and Dads…and our resident chef Paula McIntyre cooks up an Italian treat!
