    No apology necessary. In his review of Michael Shelden’s official biography of George Orwell, the writer John Mortimer said this:

    ‘A highly readable and finally moving account of a man who looked at his world…and wrote down exactly what he saw…He may have tilted at windmills, but some of them were real dragons. It is good for us to read about him in a Britain which has got out of the habit of tilting at anything very much at all’

    Keep tilting my friend.

    Thank you Jonny. British cinema, like British nusic has always indicated which way the wind is blowing in the Western World.

    Thank You Niamh. I didn’t know that about the flushing toilet – as ever the British set the precedent!

    Very impressive article, a very creative and well researched piece and seemingly effortlessly well written; I love the dry humour bubbling under the surface. I’ll bet you’ve deliberately uploaded a picture of a Blue Tit because your name’s Finch…

    Thanks for your comment Sarah. Countries can be like people can’t they? They just want you to see the best in them and think that everything is tickety-boo and the next thing – there’s a riot!
    Although I knew nothing about the Danish royal family and less about Denmark’s history I enjoyed A Royal Affair which suggested the beginnings of a very democratic society – and then there’s a riot! And then five years later the same thing in Sweden!
    Catharsis indeed!

    Thanks Sam, spot on – I couldn’t agree more. I look forward to reading some of your own work!
    Thanks for reading.
