The 'bald dwarf' dialogue was terrific, a lovely practical demonstration of how one can say nothing but the truth and yet deceive.

Oh, that's just about my favourite modern play, and I'm glad Una has found a way to get it on-topic. Did you think Gary Oldman was a bit Vila-ish too? I find the relationship between R and G (whichever one is which) a bit reminiscent of A and V.

( I saw a little bit of it, mum watched all of it!) Part of a message from my brother, letting me know that he did tape the second half of The Witch's Daughter last night (seeing as I was still on the train back to Sydney at the time). This intrigues me - does it mean that he saw Gareth Thomas and knew who it was (in which case, I shall congratulate him <smile>), or does he merely remember me telling him that "Blake" was in it when I asked him to tape it for me?

An announcer on our local PBS station said, while introducing "Space Island One," that it was "like Blake's 7." All I saw was a soap opera, not B7-like at all. Anybody else see this new-to-the-US series? Comments? 2. The new book on B7, _A History and Critical Analysis of Blake's 7_, by John Kenneth Muir, originally announced for August, has been delayed until November. --Ann Basart ------------------------------ Date: Tue, 28 Sep 1999 08:17:20 +0100 (BST) From: Judith Proctor <Judith@blakes-7.demon.co.uk> To: Lysator List <Blakes7@lysator.liu.se> Subject: [B7L] Glasgow Message-ID: <Marcel-1.46-0928071720-b49Rr9i@blakes-7.demon.co.uk> Content-Type: TEXT/PLAIN; CHARSET=US-ASCII Any Glasgow, Edinburgh or Dundee residents here? I'm trying to get copies of reviews of The Clearing. (Gareth's latest play). It's just finished in Glasgow and starts in Dundee today (Tuesday) It moves to Edinburgh 7th October and I'd love anything that appears there too. (If I ask for all three towns, then I may get at least one review if I'm lucky...)
