Best of British

[Douglas Enwright]

It’s sadly 20 years ago today since we lost the wonderful Thora Hird,our Edie Pegden.
If you can get hold of a copy,the March issue of Best of British,a nostalgia magazine,is doing a tribute to her,and also an interview with Sarah Thomas.

As a follower of Sam's Trains on youtube I also noticed, on the cover, the contest to win a Hornby train set!

Thanks for bringing this to our attention Chuffer. Looks like a crew member has left a polystyrene cup of coffee on the table?

You’re so observant Graham,I never noticed that,will look forward to reading all that,especially the Sarah Thomas interview,oh I wish she would have been performing that day in A Murder is Announced in Doncaster,especially as after the show all the cast came into the cafe/bar area and started chatting with the audience members,I had half a dozen flyers with her photo on for Sarah to sign,to give to anyone on here that wanted one,thankyou

Have you thought about sending the pictures to her agent along with a letter, there's a chance she'll sign them then?

 

[Douglas Enwright]

I didn’t bring them home with me Barry,they were just those flyers that they have in theatres,with a prominent photo of Sarah on them,this one on the left,thankyou though.

If you wanted to buy just the one issue,it’s £5.95 delivered,a pound more than the magazine price,I see there’s also a regular feature called Windows of the past,which in this issue is about Holmfirth.

I have just ordered a copy of the magazine through my local bookshop.

 

[Adrian Morris]

My copy arrived two days ago. What a wonderful article about Dame Thora and the interview with Sarah Thomas. Also the photos of Holmfirth and surrounds were a bonus.

 

[Douglas Enwright]
