I love the whole idea of building things, it's even better than Swiss Family Robinson.

Diane Cilento (the tweeny) used to organise intimate dinner parties at The Stafford on my
station, her husband was Sean Connery he was thin on top even in 1967.
Their son is Jason Connery. A working actor but not in his parents league.



And it's a brilliant story with a moral...

Ps: based on JM Barrie, he who of Peter Pan fame..'not alot of people know that..

Oh! the moral ? Sophocles below.qed......

I saw a trailer for a new film a few days back and immediately thought of The Admiral Crichton. Needless to say, I can't remember the title of this latest version.

Is he going to sea in the new film, Hepzibah?

From what little I remember, if indeed I am remembering correctly, 'he' is she. I think that the sea, boats, and an island were the backdrop to the story.

I've been looking out for the trailer but not yet seen it again - yet.
