The books are based on a real house, at Hemingford Grey near Cambridge - I wonder if that's where it's filmed? |

'I'm glad you've come. It'll be lovely for me'. It's the sort of thing Servalan might have said.

These stories move things on so quickly without seeming to. Great writing, and looks like being a decent adaptation.

And a sinister topiary Noah, if I remember rightly. I think that was the 'and what else' that the great-grandmother was asking about. The St Christopher was a good thing, a counterpart to the bad Green Noah. Edited by AnneArthur on 15-08-2024 19:31 |

This bit is rather reminiscent of Black Beauty, I think! |

They're trying hard to recreate that atmospheric feel.

That was the Green Noah, I think - they've made it more of a carving, less topiary. |
