  • MIKE BATT BIOG 2020 160.55 Kb
    MIKE BATT BIOGRAPHY “I thought that if life was like a Mars bar and you cut it up into little slices rather than eat it in one go, you’d get a lot more out of it,” says Mike Batt. He must have access to an awfully big piece of confectionery, as his unique career has plenty of tasty slices – singer-songwriter, composer, musician, record company boss, conductor, arranger, record producer and author. As well as being a solo performer in his own right, the roster of artists he has worked with is the cliched Who’s Who of music’s biggest names across the entire spectrum of performance from heavy metal Hawkwind to the rather cuddlier Wombles, with Art Garfunkel, Katie Melua, David Essex, Roger Daltrey, Vanessa Mae, Steeleye Span, Elkie Brooks and Cliff Richard, amongst many others. Mike has also won five Ivor Novello Awards, and the Queen quite likes him too, as in 2013, he was appointed Lieutenant of the Royal Victorian Order (LVO) for services to the Royal Household. He has composed commissioned pieces for various Royal and other ceremonial occasions. His hugely successful career(s) began as a child, when he joined a postal classical record club where you got four free EPs if you bought an album every year. He chose Strauss waltzes, Brahms’ Hungarian Dances, Carmen and Swan Lake, and started to fancy himself as a conductor, arranging the furniture into the shape of an orchestra when his parents were out, and being the Conductor. Combine this with his self-taught prowess at the piano, and love of verse with clever lyrics (one of his first works was setting the AA Milne poem Disobedience to his own music), plus playing with an R&B group in his hometown of Southampton, a musical career beckoned.

No illustrations, figures or photographs. Version Status Prepared by Date V02 Version Status Prepared by Date V03 Version Status Prepared by Date V04 Version Status Prepared by Date V05 1 | P a g e (3b) Dymchurch, St Mary’s Bay and Romney Sands 1. Summary Dymchurch, St Mary’s Bay and Romney Sands are popular destinations along the Shepway coastline for holidaymakers and day-trippers. Their attractive beaches, holiday parks and various other attractions have drawn in visitors and holidaymakers for a number of years and continue to do so today. The history of these areas is largely linked to the complex natural history of the Romney Marsh and the reclamation of land from the sea that has occurred over a number of centuries. The Romney Marsh today is now rich in heritage and natural biodiversity that constitutes a distinctive local landscape. The growth in seaside tourism and leisure time during the nineteenth century resulted in a rise in coastal resort towns along the Shepway coastline and by the twentieth century Dymchurch, St Mary’s Bay and Romney Sands all had popular holiday camps that were easily accessible by the Romney, Hythe and Dymchurch Railway that was opened in 1927. All of these areas continue today as popular seaside destinations and boast attractive beaches as well as a number of valuable heritage assets that relate to its history of smuggling, farming and defence of the coast.

For 30 years he has ruled the world of retail fashion – bringing the high street to the catwalk and the catwalk to the high street – but after a damaging public inquiry, his image is tarnished. To save his reputation, he decides to bounce back with a highly publicized and extravagant party celebrating his 60th birthday on the Greek island of Mykonos. A satire on the grotesque inequality of wealth in the fashion industry, the film sees McCreadie’s rise and fall through the eyes of his biographer, Nick (David Mitchell).
