Press clippings
I had the highest hopes of The Lord Of Misrule (BBC1). At this ominous tail rattle, everyone involved in it should stop reading. [...] It looked lovely. It cost a few bob. It was profoundly depressing. [...] I recorded my first smile as the Prime Minister and the editor of The Comet flailed damply at each other in a duck-pond. Timed about one hour and twenty minutes after the start of transmission.
Nancy Banks-Smith, The Guardian, 7th May 1996
