...simple appraisal of street art, via the shaky lens of the camera-obsessed Guetta. He first trawls the streets of Paris, and then L.A., becoming the accomplice of numerous street artists.

Sandhurst's iconic buildings, like the armed forces, are showing signs of wear and tear. Britain's soldiers remain a focus for national pride, and the fresh-minted officers being turned out by Sandhurst embody a grand tradition.
