Chewing The Cud: Memories from Hereford’s Old Livestock Market
A unique opportunity to see a truly local film that captures the heart of the old market and to have a fun, interactive evening, with the opportunity to make your own contribution to the on-line archive. This entertaining and warm-hearted new film, produced by Hereford- based Catcher Media Social, along with a group of talented trainees from across the county, portrays the showmanship and characters that gave the market its vibrancy and unique heritage, with anecdotes galore. There are tales of romance and conflict, triumph and sadness, with traders juggling china, market stalls losing their roofs, livestock drovers driving their flocks, visits by The Queen, children playing in the market after hours, the hordes arriving for Miners Fortnight and missing pigs.

As the United States raced against Russia to put a man in space, NASA found untapped talent in a group of African-American female mathematicians that served as the brains behind one of the greatest operations in U.S. history. Based on the unbelievably true life stories of three of these women, known as "human computers", we follow these women as they quickly rose the ranks of NASA alongside many of history’s greatest minds specifically tasked with calculating the momentous launch of astronaut John Glenn into orbit, and guaranteeing his safe return. Dorothy Vaughan, Mary Jackson, and Katherine Johnson crossed all gender, race, and professional lines while their brilliance and desire to dream big, beyond anything ever accomplished before by the human race, firmly cemented them in U.S. history as true American heroes.
