It may be the end of summer and dangerously close to the

slippery slope that leads to dark nights and cold weather but

that doesn’t mean you can’t have any fun between now and

Christmas! This Autumn sees a tremendous range of events and

shows across the UK that will keep even the most depressed of

summer sun lovers happily occupied.



1. Little Britain Live in Brighton



Little Britain is the BBC comedy show that has taken the nation

by storm. Starring Matt Lucas and David Walliams this TV hit can

now be enjoyed live with team coming together in this

tremendously entertaining stage show. Characters such as

incomprehensible renegade teenager Vicky Pollard and the

repulsively spoilt “Bubbles” are just two of the many famous

characters developed by the wonderfully talented duo. Although

showing across the UK throughout 2005, short break specialists

http://www.superbreak.com have some excellent deals on ticket +

hotel packages for the shows Brighton dates.



2. The London International Horse Show



Providing a contrast to the comedy of Little Britain, the London

International Horse Show – Olympia - is known throughout the

world for its unique combination of exciting sporting action and

festival atmosphere. Olympia runs from 13th – 19th December and

from a sporting perspective has several world class show jumping

and dressage events to chose from. The week will also see a

number of spectacular shows, each culminating in what is known

as the “Grande Finale”. Often described as the “Greatest

Christmas show on Earth” this years Grand Finale is “A Clown’s

Christmas”. This wonderful show sees the audience enjoy the

riders and horses clashing with the shows resident group of

clowns in a procession based around a Christmas theme.

3. The Oz Clarke Wine Experience 2005



For the connoisseurs of wine out there an ideal short break

opportunity may well be attending the Oz Clarke Wine Experience

at Vinopolis in London. Widely regarded as one of the world’s

leading wine experts, Mr. Clarke is renowned for his quick wit

and unorthodox approach to wine tasting. Having written

extensively on the subject and winning countless awards across

the world Oz’s wine tasting experience is being held at

Vinopolis, the wine tasting visitor attraction in London’s

vibrant Bankside. The excellent package includes tasting and

discussion on 5 wines and then a ticket to the classic Vinopolis

Tour and a further 5 wine tastings.

4. Murder Mystery Weekend - Glasgow



While many fans of the popular 90’s television series “Taggart”

may be slightly put off by the title of this paragraph the

author can assure you that the chances of ironically dieing on

one of these trips is minimal. Murder Mystery weekends are great

fun and provide a great opportunity to test your sleuthing

skills as one of the characters in the whodunit mystery.

Superbreak.com has some great accommodation plus ticket packages

for these intriguing nights – just make sure you sleep with the

light on.



5. Alton Towers 2 for 1 tickets



Gone are the days when British theme park enthusiasts had to

cast a jealous eye across the pond to America’s giant parks. At

the forefront of theme park technology for the past 10 years

Alton Towers has continually set the standards for new thrilling

rides. From the first-ever vertical drop roller coaster,

Oblivion to the world’s first “flying roller coaster” with Air,

Alton Towers has created a park that compares to any across the

world. The good news for thrill seekers is that throughout

September there are some amazing deals that allow you to pay for

one day and receive a two day pass for the park.
