Hello,

 

Distract yourself from Brexit this weekend by planning an Easter getaway in the UK. We’ve rounded up a selection of the best cottages offering excellent discounts, meaning that, one way or another, you will be guaranteed a good deal this week.

Elsewhere in LiFE, we have an interview with Jessica Hynes about her new film, The Fight. The actress talks boxing, black eyes, motherhood, and #MeToo. And we talk to Oscar winner Rachel Shenton about her remarkable rise from Hollyoaks to Hollywood.

We also have a guide to family foraging with top tips from horticulturalist David Hamilton on gathering and eating wild plants.

 

In Culture, we have an interview with author Roddy Doyle in which he talks politics, football, and his reactionary alter ego. We also ponder the return of 80s cultural wonder Blockbusters, and ask whether it needs to refresh its format to be a hit again.

In Sport, we have all the latest on the final Six Nations weekend - will Wales win the Grand Slam? - as well as analysis from the Cheltenham Gold Cup.
 
Plus, as always, there’s our popular puzzles pull-out, handy 7-day TV guide, insightful comment section on the week’s biggest topics and useful money advice.


Whatever you are doing, we hope you have a wonderful weekend.
