Your favourite film is on telly again Gordon

What is that Maddy

Annie Get Your Gun

That is not my favourite film

I thought it was

I have never seen it

Really

What is your favourite film

Apocalypse Now

Really

Why do you like it

Because

You have a book in your study

I have many books in my study

It is called Apocalypse

What is about

Is it chic lit

Will I like it

That is unlikely

Why

It was Lawrence’s final book it was written as he was dying

How sad

What is it about

It is not Annie Get Your Gun but a radical criticism of our civilisation and Lawrence’s belief that man had the power to create a new heaven and a new earth

It is unlike any other book you have read

Gordon

Yes

What are you doing this afternoon

Saving the world

Why the question

Because I have two tickets for Annie Get Your Gun at the Marlowe

Will you wear my favourite dress

Consider it done

And my favourite perfume

Lavender Fields

Yes

Give me five to get ready

You have six do hurry up
