What we’re about
Berkhamsted Walks and Social welcomes all friends, new and established, to our group. The aim of our group is to provide our members with opportunities to meet people with similar interests and to make new friends who want to get out and about in the local area. We offer three walks per week (two midweek and one weekend) in the surrounding countryside. We also offer a range of other events and have a strong commitment to supporting our local community and local events. We organise film nights, theatre trips, concerts, book club, wine club, pub nights, meals out etc.
We are looking for new, committed hosts with fresh ideas, too, to help our local group grow and develop, offering a range of regular and new events to suit the different interests and tastes of our members.
Some events will have a small cost so that the organiser can cover any expenses but most events will remain free of charge. As walks are our most regular events, we ask members to donate £1 towards our costs.
We ask that all members keep their RSVPs up to date and respect the efforts made by all hosts in offering local and varied events for our enjoyment.
Look forward to you joining us at an event soon!

James Vanderbilt turns the Nuremberg trials into a tense, sharply crafted historical thriller that plays with the urgency of a political nail-biter.
Drawing on firsthand accounts, this post-war drama follows the scramble to bring Nazi leadership to justice after Hitler’s death. When Hermann Göring (Russell Crowe) is captured, military psychiatrist Douglas Kelley (Rami Malek) is dispatched to assess him, working closely with translator Howie (Fabien Frankel). As Kelley probes Göring’s charm and cunning, US Supreme Court Justice Robert Jackson (Michael Shannon) fights to build a legally sound tribunal that the world will accept. With atrocities emerging and political pressure mounting, the question becomes not just how to try these men, but what justice can look like in the aftermath of unimaginable horror.
Vanderbilt keeps the drama lively with vivid behind-the-scenes details and a large, engaging ensemble. Crowe’s magnetic swagger makes Göring a disturbingly compelling presence, while Malek brings a cool, coiled intelligence that turns their exchanges into the film’s sharpest scenes. Frankel adds warmth as the quietly perceptive translator, and the supporting cast contribute texture even when the script gives them limited space.
Handsomely mounted and briskly paced, Vanderbilt’s film balances procedural intrigue with psychological tension, offering a fresh, absorbing retelling of history without overstating its conclusions

Rex Review:
Parking in Berkhamsted is very difficult but there is road parking along Three Close Lane. Please allow time to find somewhere to park. We meet between (or near to) the two doors in the bar.1 attendee
