Zitate
Catherine Fedden: You're really very rich, aren't you, Sir Maurice?
Sir Maurice Tipper: Yes. I am.
Catherine Fedden: How much have you got?
Sally Tipper: Oh, my dear, what a question. You can never exactly say, can you? It goes up so fast. All the time these days.
Catherine Fedden: Well, roughly.
Sir Maurice Tipper: Roughly... a-hundred-and-fifty million.
Catherine Fedden: A-hundred-and-fifty million pounds?
Sir Maurice Tipper: Give or take a few million, yes.
Catherine Fedden: I noticed you gave some money to the appeal at Podier Church.
Sally Tipper: We give to endless appeals and churches.
Catherine Fedden: How much did you give?
Sir Maurice Tipper: I don't recall exactly.
Catherine Fedden: You gave five francs. That's about 50p. *That's* how much you gave.
Gerald Fedden: [arriving] What's all this about?
Sir Maurice Tipper: This young lady was giving me some criticism. Apparently I'm rather mean.
Catherine Fedden: Oh, I didn't say that.
Sally Tipper: You certainly implied it.
Catherine Fedden: All right, I did. And if I was in charge I think I should stop people from being able to have a-hundred-and-fifty million pounds.
Gerald Fedden: Just as well you're not, then, Puss.

The sexier side of the Tory dominated 80's

I watched the first episode of the line of beauty last Wednesday (17th May) and I personally enjoyed it. I, myself am only 22 years old and so I was born in the eighties but obviously don't remember it. The story follows one man through his sexual awakening in amidst all the fake glamour of the 80's Tory government. The political side of it is interesting to watch, but the main focus was watching Dan Stevens character (Nick Guest) meeting other men. I have not seen Dan Stevens before in anything else, but from now on I will be on the look out for anything else he appears in. His crystal clear blue eyes, and the way he plays the character's naiveté (in the first episode anyway) is well done. I will definitely watch the next two episodes and may even read the book if I can get hold of it. I recommend tuning in, (espically if your gay) for the sex scenes alone but also for the clever portrayal of the Thatcherite years and how it both destroyed and made the country we are all living in today.
