IN 1991, on the occasion of Susan Bradshaw's 60th birthday, the composer Giles Swayne gave her a score of a short piece he had written for her. Over the top was a dedication: "To dear Susan, conscience of composers." This phrase neatly conjures up Bradshaw's curious and influential position in British musical life over the last half-century or so, a position considerably more important than might be suggested simply by her impressive professional achievements. Bradshaw worked in many musical fields, as a pianist, teacher, writer about music, translator and critic (of the higher kind, never in newspapers). Thus, as Neue Zuricher Zeitung put it, "the news of his arrest shocked the Polish public, especially the army and young people, for whom he was almost a national idol".Almost immediately, influential figures in the government and in the army tried to cover up the affair, but the Russian representative to the Warsaw Pact High Command demanded the death penalty.

Under the Tory proposals, headteachers would decide for themselves whether to use facilities such as random drug-testing or metal detectors "We believe in freedom," said Mr Collins "We believe in giving headteachers the power to decide.

"If they don't want random drug-testing in their schools, they won't have to do it. "The difference between us and the Government is they don't believe in headteachers' freedom. They believe they should be subject to targets on expulsions and shouldn't have the final say on exclusions.".

"Just £1 will buy a child in Africa enough exercise books and pens for one whole term of education - and in Britain, it would pay for a call made by Women's Aid to give urgently needed advice to a woman experiencing domestic violence."Celebrities Jo Brand, Ruby Wax, Jimmy Nail, Kevin Whately, Liza Tarbuck and Nick Knowles all feature in Comic Relief's Great Big Celebrity Nose Job, broadcast this Sunday at 6.35pm on BBC1 (but check listings in case of change).
