	A Short History of Caldicot
		In 1850 Caldicot entered the 'Railway Age' a development which was to fundamentally change the nature of the village and to form its character for the next century and more.
		The manor of Caldicot was given to Durand, the Sheriff of Gloucester.
		When Queen Victoria came to the throne in 1837, Caldicot had a population of around 450, virtually all of whom were engaged in farming or in trades serving the agricultural community.

	Caldicot Town AFC
		Caldicot romped to victory after Gwynfi were reduced to ten men ten minutes before the break, despite a small resurgence from the away team, when they scored 3 in a row to make it 5-3 at one stage.
		Caldicot took the lead twice but were pegged back twice, the second time with only a few minutes to go, which left no time for Town to get a winner.
		Caldicot then added more pressure and looked comfortable for a while and duly added a second when the lively Jason Thorn flicked a header perfectly through for strike partner Paul Harris, making his first start of the season, to run onto, control and strike all in the space of 2 yards.

		As at Manorbier, Cobb made Caldicot Castle his home for a time and devoted much energy to rejuvenating the structure.

		The film which stars Pauline Collins as Mrs Caldicot is nearing the end of its theatrical release and will soon be available on video worldwide.

		Caldicot's Cabbage War is a nice little film about a British lady who takes on big business and fights for the rights of the elderly in a rest home.
		Thelma Caldicot (Pauline Collins) is the wife of Henry (Terence Rigby).

	Mrs Caldicot's Cabbage War (2000)
		Mrs Caldicot finds she does indeed have a mind of her own and starts a small rebellion in the twilight rest home where she has been parked by her son, baulking at the harsh regime and standover tactics of the management.
		The story then moves on to an oft repeated scenario of old folks locked away, drugged to the eyeballs to keep them subdued as selfish offspring fulfil their own needs at the expense of the parent.
		There is a small undertone of rebellion even before the fateful day when her husband is laid out for duck or should I say for want of a duck.

	Variety.com - Reviews - Mrs. Caldicot's Cabbage War
		Caldicot's Cabbage War," a mildly engaging time-passer, stuffed with TV thesps, whose real place is on the small screen.
		Collins plays middle-aged suburban housewife Thelma Caldicot, who's booted out of her home by her odious realtor son, Derek (Peter Capaldi), and his yuppie wife, Veronica (Anna Wilson-Jones), after her dull husband is deep-sixed by a cricket ball.
		As a widow who finally breaks out of her self-imposed shell after 30 years of boring marriage, Pauline Collins lends emotional ballast to the line-up of reliable character actors hardly stretched by the unadventurous script.
