Synopsis: Grace Pudel is a lonely misfit with an affinity for collecting ornamental snails and an intense love for books. At a young age, when Grace is separated from her fire-breathing twin brother Gilbert, she falls into a spiral of anxiety and angst. Despite a continued series of hardships, inspiration and hope emerge when she strikes up an enduring friendship with an elderly eccentric woman named Pinky, who is full of grit and lust for life. MEMOIR OF A SNAIL is a poignant, heartfelt and hilarious chronicle of the life of an outsider finding her confidence and silver linings amongst the clutter of everyday life.

Sample Credits – the show that looks at the songs behind the songs, the hits behind the hits.
Each week I’ll be playing a range of funk, soul, disco, pop, folk and rock songs that were sampled by other artists in some of their most famous tracks.
You’ll be presented with some extremely danceable music, cross-referenced with the hits you love. Before too long, you’ll recognise samples without having to look at the liner notes. Wow your friends! Impress your co-workers! Be the belle of the ball!

Thanks to Transmission Films, 2XX has 10 double passes to give away to current 2XX subscribers to see A HORSE NAMED WINX, a film starring, directed and produced by Janine Hosking, and written and narrated by Andrew Rule, opening nationally in cinemas on September 5.

Email [email protected] with Winx, your name and phone number in the subject line and the first 10 subscribers to write in will win a pass.

At the height of her fame, Winx became known as the “people’s horse”. She is an Australian icon who transcended her sport—joining the realms of fellow legends like Cathy Freeman and Sir Donald Bradman. During her reign, huge crowds descended on racetracks across Australia to witness the Phar Lap of the modern era pull off the impossible – 33 straight wins—a feat unlikely to ever be repeated. Winx’s final race was watched by millions worldwide.

A Horse Named Winx goes behind the sports headlines and spectacular victories to reveal the unforgettable spirit of a champion, who away from the racetrack faced her biggest battle and once again refused to be beaten.
