The Railway Children by E. Nesbit | The Book, The Film (1970), and The Railway
Manage episode 348926039 series 2845607
This week's episode looks at:
- Edith Nesbit: British children’s author, novelist, and poet. Among many other stories, she wrote, '5 Children and It' which I talk about here.
- The Dreyfus Affair: a sandal that captured the world's attention (and was obliquely references in 'The Railway Children').
- The TV Show: starring Jenny Agutter in BBC black and white glory.
- The Film (1970): there are, of course, many movie adaptations, but this one is the classic, and no film review of any of the others fails to mention that!
- The Railway itself: the Keighley and Worth Valley Railway (yes, pronounced 'Keith-ley'), a fantastic place to visit in West Yorkshire, and home to the films.
I hope you enjoy this - just over thirty minute - episode... and the poems. Couldn't resist.
Oh, and I also announce the competition winner. Stay subscribed so you don't miss out!
