Two of the UK’s most iconic voices have finally combined as a duo.
Miranda Sykes & Jim Causley have known each other for nearly 20 years and united in 2024 to create a show celebrating pioneering folk song collector Sabine Baring-Gould.
They enjoyed working together so much and audience feedback was so positive that they have just released and toured their debut album.
“Everything Possible” features some of their favourite contemporary songs from the UK folk scene and beyond and brings their magical voices together.

Jo in the Water
Screening + Q&A with Director Pip Piper and Jo Bateman
Running Time: 87 Minutes
Tickets: Adult £8. Under 16's £7
All tickets include a £1 booking fee
Jo in the Water follows a passionate sea swimmer turned reluctant activist, Exmouth-based Jo Bateman, as she takes on one of the UK’s biggest water companies in a David-and-Goliath battle to protect our waters from devastating sewage pollution.
As Jo’s courage helps ignite a growing movement, this film exposes the dire state of our water system and asks: who will stand up for our right to swim in clean natural waters, for the species and communities that rely upon them?
Jo in the Water is a feature-length documentary made by award-winning filmmakers with a strong track record of bringing powerful stories to our cinema screens. It is not just about water pollution; it is about connection—to nature, to our own sense of place, and to our responsibility for the world around us.
Featuring Jo Bateman, Jeremy Vine, Jim Murray MBE and Chris Packham.
“Jo inspires people… they realise that together we have a greater strength. In a shoal like this we become mighty.”
Chris Packham, Wildlife TV presenter & conservationist
Bios for Pip and Jo for Q&As.

Retired physiotherapist and passionate sea swimmer turned reluctant activist, Jo Bateman is taking on one of the UK’s biggest water companies in a David-and-Goliath battle to protect our oceans from devastating sewage pollution.
