I don’t think this is that kind of show, but I was waiting for the warden to come on to Archie. Luckily, ick, no.

In Agatha Christie’s “And Then There Were None”/ “Ten Little Indians” the house the victims have been invited to was described as a modern, 30's era house, but in the BBC production shown on PBS recently it is of a much older design - Georgian/Regency perhaps? All kinds of grand rooms, staircases, pantries, creating…

I wonder if Kevin and Josie are ALREADY siblings.

I don’t know anything about any of this, but the cover alone would make me want to check out the book.

I finished “Marilla of Green Gables” by Sarah McCoy, imagining the girlhood and youth of Marilla Cuthbert, who adopted Anne of Green Gables. It’s not a bad book, well-written, a good deal of romance, but quite unconvincing in the author’s attempt to show how Marilla and her brother Matthew came to be who they were in…

One abstained, I’m happy to report.

I will go out on a limb and say something positive about her: she knows how to say no. No, I don’t want to be pleasant, No, I don’t want to be your hostess, No, I don’t have any cause I want to work on, No, I don’t want to make the world a better place, No, I don’t want to play this game even though I am already in…

Who is Winston Hibler?

“Sally Go ‘Round the Roses”, 1963. Ghostly voices, chanting melody.

Thank you - I saw the TV-movie when it aired, and I was hoping that you would honor her. She was quite a gal.

First nitpick of the day: properly, the genre is not s.f. (a fantasy, of sorts, yes, but not about science), it’s “alternative history”.

No no no - Vade domum, Romanes!

Thank you! We’ll mark our calendars and have champagne.

So December 12? I was figuring that if she’s lived in the house 34 years on Dec. 8 but is less than 68 on that date it would be sooner. We’ll just have 2 parties, then.

OK, mathematicians: if my mother is going to be 68 on December 16 and as of this December 8 will have lived in our/her house for 34 years, on what day will she have lived in the house over half her life?

Our reviewer makes some perfectly good points. However -

Hmm... I was an adult when it came out, saw it with an Englishman who had loved the book but cringed at the opening animation. I’ve not read the book (yet), so seeing rabbits “red in tooth and claw” didn’t disturb me, just made me respect the passions of beasts which we cannot know. But really, since it won’t have…

The first CD I ever bought was the soundtrack to “The English Patient”. I didn’t even have a CD player yet. I had to take it to the library and pretend to be playing something else.

West Side Story!

Or the Adirondacks, as with the elderly couple mentioned above.
