What do courtrooms and theatres have in common? According to Advocate Simon Thomas – quite a lot.

A partner at Baker & Partners, Simon has spent more than 30 years working on some of Jersey's highest profile legal cases, including the L'Ecume II collision trial last year.

Away from the courtroom, however, he swaps legal submissions for stage directions as director of Come From Away, the internationally acclaimed musical based on the extraordinary true story of thousands of airline passengers stranded in the tiny Canadian town of Gander after the 9/11 attacks.

He dropped into the Bailiwick Podcasts studio to speak to Bailiwick Express Editor Fiona Potigny about doing justice to real-life stories, whether musicals deserve more credit than they’re often given, and whether there’s any truth in the old cliché that "all barristers are failed actors"…

Come From Away runs at the Opera House (which is gloriously air-conditioned) until 11 July – don't miss out,get your tickets here. 

With the 2026 FIFA World Cup fast approaching, Archie Corbett is joined by Jersey Bulls players Jamie Watling, Toby Ritzema and Jersey Wanderers' Max Corbett to preview football's biggest tournament.

The panel discuss England's chances of ending nearly 60 years of hurt, the impact of the new 48-team format, tournament favourites, potential dark horses and the players set to light up the competition in North America.

The lads also put their reputations on the line with predictions for the World Cup winner, Golden Boot, Player of the Tournament and a few bold calls that may come back to haunt them in the weeks ahead.

This episode forms part of Bailiwick's World Cup coverage, with regular podcasts, reaction shows, analysis and special guests planned throughout the tournament.

Sports reporter Archie Corbett sits down with England legend Joe Hart to discuss his experiences of playing on football's biggest stage and assess how Thomas Tuchel's England side could fare at the 2026 FIFA World Cup in North America.

The former England goalkeeper reflects on the unique pressures and excitement of representing his country at a World Cup, while also sharing his thoughts on the modern game, the importance of elite goalkeepers and where he believes Jordan Pickford ranks among the world's best.

A Premier League champion and one of England's most recognisable goalkeepers of the modern era, Hart provides a fascinating insight into life at the top level and what it takes to prepare for major international tournaments.

This episode marks the beginning of Bailiwick's World Cup coverage, with a host of local football personalities set to join us throughout the tournament for analysis, predictions and reaction to football's biggest event.
