I've just watched 'The Culture Show'. Mark Kermode was talking about a film with a lot of narration which has been adapted from a novel. He felt this shows that the makers hadn't quite got to grips with the adaptation. Interesting point after our session with Bill on Thursday about the problems of filming 'Wuthering Heights'.
More synchronicity - the show is currently asking viewers to vote for their greatest 'living icon', and Kate Bush, she of wailing 'Wuthering Heights' fame, is one of the top ten. I can't stand these 'greatest' and 'best of' type contests - how can you possibly compare someone like Vivienne Westwood with Alan Bennett, for example? It's a totally meaningless waste of time and I would have thought better of 'The Culture Show'.
Enough ranting. Roast chicken awaits, one of the British top ten dinners?
