I was going to ask but forgot, did anyone else watch the BBC's two part adaptation of Andrea Levy's Small Island?

I thought it was very good, though parts of ep 2 cut so close to the bone as to be almost unwatchable for me. Was left profoundly grateful that I am not ten years older than I am.

I adored the book and loved the adaptation

I haven't read the book, but I think I will now.

I watched it. I thought it was excellent, and the acting performances were outstanding.

*hugs*

Yes, it was very good, wasn't it? Very sad, though. I'm glad we've moved forward a bit since those days.

Oh, I've got that book. Haven't read it yet.... it's about race relations in the '50s, n'est-ce pas?

[shapinglight]

Well, sort of.
