TBH Charles, that was not the literary work foremost in my mind,
especially after enjoying this BBC4 documentary in the early hours of
Tuesday morning.

Yes, I noticed that, but didn't bother to download it. AFAIK the
original film wasn't shown, was it?

I saw that too, earlier in the week and quite enjoyed it - very
interesting too. I also remember which cinema I saw 'Kes' in, I make a
point of watching out for Ken Loach's gritty films.

Yes, I'd like to see the original film again. I'm something of an
admirer of Ken Loach's work. The first thing of his I saw was 'Cathy
Come Home', which, even watching it today, still has the power to move
me and make me angry at officialdom.
