Hello, all you cousins from over the pond. . .here's a Yankee girl checking in. . .I just have to say I enjoy so much all you regular English folks, you are really very charming: it shows in this production. Truth to tell, "Hollyweird", for most Americans has grown to be depressing and a disgrace, so I appreciate what you have to offer. Also, sorry, don't mean to offend, but I can get along nicely without the blue bloods - though I think I can speak for the whole of the USA that we loved your Princess Diana. . .a jewel in the form of a person. . .cheerio!

I agree with Paul Rowe. I'm American, and I find it arrogant and ridiculous when anyone says, "I think that I speak for all Americans when I say.......". The point is not who agrees with you and who does not. The point is, please do not attempt to speak for an entire country. Simply giving your own opinion, would be best.

Change is inevitable in a world that continues to produce tyrants which result in migration the world OVER. Every great society crumbles in time. We have no choice but to accept this turmoil which is the world as it has ALWAYS been. There is no stability that lasts more than a generation. Change must be tolerated or we will all perish because of it. :( Sad but - the world keeps moving from one thing to another. I do NOT embrace it - but rather accept it as best I can.

I read the novel as part of an English Lit class back in high school (won't say how many years ago that was!) and fell in love with Wells' comic writing. Also had the privilege of seeing the revival of HALF A SIXPENCE, the stage musical, in London a year ago, and I have the DVD of Tommy Steele's film version of the same musical (and it's amazing that he's still performing after all these years). Michael Wilding, the brother who runs off with the money, was Elizabeth Taylor's husband at one time, of course.
