@dgjones The veil and tresses get in the way a bit but it’s what Richard would have wanted

@hrcastor I’m really looking forward to your new book The Eagle and the Hart. Any idea when it will be available in Australia? PS I hope you’ll be able to do a tv series based on the book like you did with She-Wolves!

@Stephan97305910 Thank you so much - have to finish writing it first! But will be shouting about it here when it’s done. TV a much longer shot, sadly...

@hrcastor Can't wait for the book to come out and hopefully a TV programme. PS Hope you can get to Canada soon. x

@hrcastor I’d have queued for tickets to this production. A world presented in CinemaScope and full colour by the looks of this - played, as someone said of Edmund Kean, as though reading Shakespeare by flashes of lightning. Great find.
