I’m nearly at the end of Little Dorrit, following a friend’s suggestion, and am strictly rationing the remaining episodes as I don’t want to say goodbye to the characters. Claire Foy makes Amy’s goodness charming rather than wet (such a problem with Dickens’ Nice Girls), and Tom Courtenay makes my fingers itch to slap her father - or perhaps tweak his nose as being a more Dickensian insult. Great list, Arthur, I hope your Christmas has (many) moments of joy.
what a list of see/do!......bit off grid here but Netflix....do you have this in Brit-ville?... just put out the first season of Garcia Márquez 100 Years of Solitude.......some of the magical breaks away from the realism to make its points.....worth a view......capitalism's big holiday is upon us....let's read, watch and avoid......

Immediately hitting play on the Debo interview! Fabulous list.
Going to listen to the Deborah Cavendish interview. Right up my street. Thanks Arthur
Thank you for this! I have always found Christmas difficult but only just able to admit it,,, I hope you find some time to escape.
