Who rode across the desert tied to a camel; which doubting nonagenarian discussed faith this week with the Archbishop of Canterbury; does the UK have a road worthy to be called Britain's route 66? Pick of the Week has the answers plus Helena Bonham Carter lets us in on one of the benefits she's found to growing older, Lionel Blair reminds us why Sammy Davis Junior had a great life and we follow the British Reggae Revolution.
