Press clippings

In "A girl's best friend" (BBC1's Comedy Playhouse) the audience appeared to die in the first 10 minutes. This does happen from time to time. They just sit there nicely and politely as if observing 20 minutes' silence for Peron. And I have never known them wrong.

Nancy Banks-Smith, The Guardian, 4th July 1974
