J. O. Morgan is reading from Natural Mechanical at the Bridlington Poetry Festival tomorrow, Saturday the 12th. Marjorie Ann Watts (Are they funny, are they dead?) writes about Cornwall in the Sunday Telegraph on the 13th. Next week, on Thursday the 17th the first of three programmes on the making of the Glyndebourne opera from Nicky Singer’s Knight Crew is presented by Gareth Malone on BBC2 at 9 p.m.
The BBC has commissioned a film adaptation of Christopher Reid’s The Song of Lunch, starring Alan Rickman and Emma Thompson, to be broadcast later this year.

Seriously? I love that book - this sounds like a dream. Brilliant casting. It needs a fan page on facebook....
Bob, thank you. I was keeping that one until today.
Anne - yes, seriously. Someone has not just thought 'Wouldn't it be good if ...' but is actually making it happen.
