When I was on holiday recently I went off to buy a Dutch newspaper to read up on what was happening in the world. But as I could not find any I bought the Daily Telegraph, which featured an interview with Joanna Lumley. I enjoyed it very much and luckily it's available online so I thought I'd share it with you.

It says in the interview that, with her command of English and being able to paint pictures with words, she should be a novelist. I also think she's make a damn fine politician. Diana Rigg's opinions are also noteworthy.
Jo or Diana for Prime Minister!
Very good and interesting interview - thank you for sharing.

But it'd be fun to see her as Prime Minister as well. That'd liven up some of those world conventions, wouldn't it?

Every parent has a favorite child. Usually the child belongs to the neighbors.
And, her book and tape of the book which she reads 'Forces Sweethearts' is a killer! Makes me sob! All those sad love stories of men at war and their women at home waiting for them.Timeless A-Peel wrote:Anyone who's read her bios knows she can write with the best of them.Dandy Forsdyke wrote:It says in the interview that, with her command of English and being able to paint pictures with words, she should be a novelist.
