About Attention All Shipping: A Celebration of The Shipping Forecast
As the shipping forecast embarks on its second century, author and broadcaster Charlie Connelly brings the quirky broadcast vividly to life, celebrating what he regards as the greatest invention of the modern age.
Delving into the history of the forecast and the extraordinary people who made it, Charlie explains how it is possible for ‘rain later’ to be ‘good’, celebrates its wide cultural impact, and presents his case for the shipping forecast being our finest achievement.

The theatre has has 217 seats, including stalls and a balcony. It is a resource for the community, and it is also a professional venue, welcoming over 55,000 customer visits every year.
It is something unique, but it is also different things to different people. It is the cause and subject of many arguments and debates; and a fair amount of acclaim and affection. It is complicated and a little eccentric.
It is not a little theatre. It likes to make a big noise.
