Eith would not have liked those pillars (with the vases & flowers).

The only instrument for me, this.

Such a shame that nice girl wasting herself on that man... the one with the beard. Makes me weep.

It's a toss up between this and P&P : maybe it's a tie!

Waugh's pullling her leg! (about Ulysses). He was quite a 'provocateur' in his way.

Whoops a Daisy : did I make a few grammar mistakes ? Oh Dear dear !!! What a to do Jena Austen's another one for Upper Middleys.

Me too, 30 years ago. But in my undefeated innocence I'm a better and nicer ersion of my older - younger self. In my opinion.

The performance is in a demi-tone below the written one.

Il paraît que Fiona a composé la dernière. Il y a de l'irlandais dedans.

What's all the shouting about here? The French public are smart enough to sense something phoney at work ... The play won't turn well-meaning spectators into devil worshippers. Remember the real problem is the corrupt priests who destroyed the lives of hundreds ofthousands of children ... Get y...

These are the kinds of people that discredit Catholicism (not to mention the "other problem" the Church is having at the moment). This crowd is typical of the band of snobby phonies masquerading as Christians : who never in a milllion years would associate with the poor Carpenter from Nazareth, b...

Morten Lauridsen: American living composer .... isn't it marvellous to learn new things like this ? ... There's no end to marvels awaiting us, and all around us ...

You'd have wonder how those gothic structures don't fall apart (all those centuries) with the force of those organs ... Great architecture right enough

Yes classy version for intellectuels this, beats the vulgar screeching of the 3 Tenors

Sounds a bit Disney to me ... pity

The book was "bouleversant".

This wierdly fascinating ... voyeurism? The Office in Hospital? Whatever it is, it's excellent. (I live in outside UK, hence never knew about this).

Generally it's difficult to have a conversaton while hopping around, and one needs to bawl one's head off..... what with the music 'n' all ......

Isn't there something missing between part 4 and this ?

Better architects designed the colour film buildings.

Laughed so much 'til I nearly passed out

The Irish aristocrats were wild at the time; notorious many of them for their excessive drunkeness, duelling, and abducting maidens. A wild bunch in Dublin went under the title of "the Hell Fire Club"!

Is this that same dull woman in series1?

@dimitrovajunkie

I will check my Fowler on the "something of the + adhjective" ...

En tout cas, permettez moi de vous remercier de votre gentilesse car mon anglais pourrait sembler archaïque parfois.

She was an improvement on the previous fiancée ... But in real life Maria was some character.

If Schubert were around today I think he'd produce this very same work, this is Schubertian. More thans Brahmsian, but not far off. Let's be clear, there's none of the Wagner school here ....

Very kind to post this. thanks

Isn't she a bit like Dirk bogart, about the eyes ?

Thanks Floppsy. To be serious, though, I once read a biography on J A. Have a vague memory that they were both very young, but his people disapproved as neither had money. I'm not sure they were planning to go off together. Must look out the book. The book did say he had regrets about giving up...

Yes, I thank you too!

I'm looking forward to watching thi later on.

Very nice of you to put this up.

My biography of Jane Austen informs me she got engaged but then suddenly called it off the next day and never disclosed the reason for doing so. She was a little spirited women, not really as beautiful as this actress, had a "glint" in her eye (what's that?) but glint and all couldn't save her f...

I remember when we danced in them sets, the heat! It was unbearable. And the men were perspiring something dreadful and the crowding and the pushing and the shoving to get to the food tables and the stepping on toes and knocking against other dances .. .

@ebutemetube

And that's about the long and the short of it!

Majestic : the Wave, but the video too.

I love the Montmartre scene. Lucky Tristan. I think I know that girl's face from somewhere.

Good luck, Mate!

6'54" : Is that Tristan's twin brother? I didn't know he had one!!!!!

Thanks for the super films Leguiumz!!
