She's certainly a far better actress than I gave her credit for when I heard she'd be playing The Doctor's assistant in New Doctor Who !Michelehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15888298679182871669noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14162585.post-89800517849899189352006-12-15T03:23:00.000+00:002006-12-15T03:23:00.000+00:00I like the quartet, too, but I think Billy Piper i...I like the quartet, too, but I think Billy Piper is totally WRONG for Sally Lockhart.

But yes, a full report will be offered here ! I also like the quartet - they were the first of Philip's books that I read. I've been meaning to re-read them but haven't got there yet - next year, though, along with umpteen other books I'll be (re)reading for my projected book.Michelehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15888298679182871669noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14162585.post-42047211834671560822006-12-13T18:20:00.000+00:002006-12-13T18:20:00.000+00:00"The BBC are screening an adaptation of Philip Pul..."The BBC are screening an adaptation of Philip Pullman's novel The Ruby in the Smoke (the first book in the Sally Lockhart quartet) on December 27th at 8:30 pm." <br /><br />Oh, Michele, I am SO jealous. Full report, please, if you do watch it? I love the Sally Lockhart series and think they are much underappreciated. I pray, hope, wish the adaptation shows in States SOON!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
