This Weekend: Clint Mansell, Phil Thompson and racehorses
How far is the journey from Stourbridge to the dizzying heights of Hollywood? Clint Mansell tells Weekend everything, from his days drinking in The Mitre pub to brushing shoulders with the LA elite at Academy Award ceremonies in Tinseltown.
Even if you don't recognise the Oscar-nominated composer by sight, you'll definitely know his work.
Talking of the elite, we also investigate just what it's like to own a racehorse. It's surprisingly no rich man's world - you could probably afford it yourself. We'll tell you how in Saturday's paper.
As well as all of that, we catch up with Liverpool legend and success story Phil Thompson, who tells us how his boyhood dreams came true on and off the pitch.
With telly, fashion, travel, food and much more, it's the perfect accompaniment to your weekend.
Have a good one!
