@daveainsworth63@BBCTwo Possibly (IMHO, definitely!) one of THE greatest adaptations of Dickens, ever. The opening scenes on the marshes are truly haunting. Magwitch - truly scary! Finlay .... can't remember his surname. Great actor of his time.
@Frances_Coppola Apparently, one of the extremely difficult questions asked is, "Who is the current President of the USA?".
They dropped the 2nd part though. "How is he STILL?" ..

During World War II, more than 600,000 Black women later called the βBlack Rosiesβ entered factories, shipyards, and aircraft plants to keep Americaβs war machine alive. They welded ships, built planes, packed ammunition, and worked brutal hours under dangerous conditions while the nation depended on their labor.
But even as they helped defeat fascism abroad, they faced racism at home. Many were paid less, given the hardest jobs, denied promotions, and forced into segregated workplaces and housing. Some white workers even protested against working beside them.
Still, Black women showed up anyway.
You know when the teacher makes up a pretend job like pencil monitor for the thick kid whoβs always getting into trouble? Anyway, Lee Anderson is now Chairman of Reform UK.
