Unlocking the Door to Your Past
Not just a blog, a philosophy
by Jack Monroe, bestselling author of 'A Girl Called Jack'
Realist, writer, reader, reviewer and rocker.
The Real England is a concise, direct, and not-so-gentle window into the depths of the leftovers of the world’s once greatest empire. It is told from the perspective of one lone (or not so lone) long term visitor. It informs one of the dregs of the country and helps to explain quaint British oddities such as the crack addicted chav.

I remember this one. I think I commented about the film of her exploits.

I believe you did. McKenna was miscast but at least Scofield gave gravitas. I think it’s time for a remake if only to correct some of the fictions and have somebody suitable play her. Not the greatest actress but the first name that comes to mind – though she may be too old now – is Catherine Zeta Jones. Actually, going back to McKenna, I watched something on YouTube the other day in which she was rather good. I was directed there by a friend because my father was in it giving one of his dithering colonel performances! I never saw it originally as I was working but the whole production was good and full of great names like Dilys Laye and Ronald Pickup. They don’t make ’em like that these days. It was N C Hunter’s play, Waters of the Moon and made in ’83.
