Although technically English I could see Angela Lansbury playing a brilliant Auntie Wainwright. She was outstanding when I saw her play Madam Arcati and I think that character does have parallels with Auntie.
I'm so sorry for your mum's passing but what a fantastic way to honour her, I'm glad you enjoyed your time in that special area of the country forever associated with warmth and barminess in equal measure.
I visited Holmfirth on 17-18 March (all the way from Seattle, WA) during my short trip to England. In honor of the one-year anniversary of my mother’s passing, I sprinkled a small amount of her ashes at “the bench.” I hired Mount Taxi...
