I managed to catch Jeannette on the BBC news Am last week, just by accident really. How does she manage to remain so Jolly?

Saw last part of "Oranges..." last night and I wonder if it had stood the test of time? I enjoyed it the first time but perhaps that is the mystique of watching a story about someone who was a part of your childhood, regardless of however distant she was, but I always recall stories of "odd goings on" at the Church she attended i.e. faith healing, chanting and excorcisms lol - bit like the bogey man over the Coppice.

I couldn't help seeing that the charcter Jesse was just JW's alter ego.
