How to tell the story of the young Lennon? ... First-time director Sam Taylor-Wood, rising star Aaron Johnson and Yoko Ono talk exclusively about new film Nowhere Boy ... Here in the New Clubmoor Hall in Norris Green, Liverpool, they're selling Bateman's Light Dinner Ale at 6d a bottle. The reek of Nelson's Tipped and Senior Service cigarettes fills the air. Moody boys in slim suits and slick DAs mooch about the dancefloor. In front of them glamorous girls in pencil skirts and fitted jackets,

Sky Sports' walking football encyclopaedia once had a Jethro Tull habit and hair to match. Paul Mardles brings him up to date ... Jeff Stelling strokes the middle of his back and grimaces.

Rather, embarrassed by the excesses of youth, he is indicating the exact length of his hair when, aged 16, he worshipped Jethro Tull and rarely left the house without his weighty brown trenchcoat. "I'd forgotten about it until recently," he says,

The home secretary's job is often called the toughest in the cabinet. It doesn't get easier when Paul Mardles is asking about Duran Duran ... It is less than 24 hours since G20 protesters clashed with the police and, in her sizable central London office, the home secretary is considering which member of Duran Duran she fancied the most. "Hmmm," says Jacqui Smith, self-consciously, resting her head on the back of her chair, "I guess my favourite was Simon Le Bon." Does that hold true today,

Twisted Wheel haven't started a revolution, but since touring with big names, they're turning quite a few heads ... Pop and rock guardian.co.uk © Guardian News & Media Limited 2009 Use of
