Chronicles Of Ancient Sunlight

The BBC is replaying a series about Thatcher's years in power.  My mother had it on.  It features interviews with the great lady herself recorded shortly after her fall. That imperious voice, fuzzy with indignation and self-pity, drove me from the room.

The police are investigating new claims that it was the SAS wot did for Lady Di. At the risk of being labelled a loon, I must say I've always thought her death- coming  at a time when she was threatening the Royal Family with Muslim step-relatives- was awfully convenient.

If Diana had lived she would have become a huge embarrassment to the British establishment- much as Princess Margaret was- only more so.
