"If Carlton is in top three, then Hellebore must win the run, if he wants to win the cup."

"In other words, if Hellebore doesn't win, he does not have any chances?"

"Right, but I think he wins Carlton, so only one who is left is you. Are you capable of that, James?"

"I don't know", James answered. He put food in his mouth and thought about it at the same time when biting tasteless mush. He tried to ate as much as possible to get the energy for the run, but food was as lousy as usual. Stew which had chewy chicken bites, a grey gummy pasty, a pile of old peas and watery cooked potatoes."

Experience of 007 Travelers: Self-made

"They were eating fried eggs and sausages that they had cooked on the little electric stove out in the passage under the watchful eye of the boys’ maid. Everyone bought extra food at the School Stores or at Jack’s or Rowland’s in the town; this was absolutely necessary to stop the boys from starving to death, as the meals that Codrose served up were almost completely inedible."

"Best meal of the day, breakfast,’ said Charmian once she’d ordered scrambled eggs, bacon, toast and marmalade. ‘Sets you up for the day.’

The waitress came over and asked if they would like a pot of tea and Charmian exploded.

‘Tea? Good God, no. It’s mud. How the British ever built an empire drinking the filthy stuff is beyond me. And if we carry on drinking it, I’ve no doubt that the empire won’t last much longer. No, a civilised person drinks coffee."

Experience of 007 Travelers: Self-made


"Charmian had roasted a chicken for lunch and they ate it with steamed carrots, potatoes and spring greens, freshly picked, firm and brightly coloured. James savoured every single mouthful. After the muck at Eton, it was like eating the food of the gods.

‘Do you know anything about a boy called Alfie Kelly?’ James asked as Aunt Charmian brought a big apple pie to the table.

‘Dreadful business,’ said his aunt, cutting into the pie and releasing a delicious cloud of steam that smelt of apples and sugar and cinnamon."

Where: Writer's Centre Norwich, Thomas Paine Study Centre, Norwich, England
When: 16 September 2016 at 18.00
Duration: 1,5 hours
Price: £8 / £6

Charlie Higson is a comedian, actor and author of the phenomenally successful Young Bond series, which has sold over a million copies in the UK and has been translated into over 24 languages. Here, he joins UEA Lecturer and fellow Bond enthusiast Matthew Woodcock for a discussion of all things 007; including Higson’s personal approach to the character’s early adventures, the inspiration taken from Ian Fleming’s own life and the essential ingredients of a classic James Bond story.

The discussion will also touch on the place of thriller vis-à-vis crime writing and the challenges of writing for a young adult audience, with a Q&A opportunity for aspiring writers to pose their own questions.

Norfolk has a big part to play in the world of James Bond – from being a film location for "Die Another Day" (2002), to providing Ian Fleming with the inspiration for the name of his supervillian Ernst Stavro Blofeld – making it the perfect location for this special event.
