"Caducean Whisks" commented on AlanP's Blog "Get real - Why bother?".Yes, I think it depends on the medium, but also very greatly on readers' / watchers' expectations. If it's clearly fiction, perhaps you can get away with thtoopid details, but if it's flagged as a documentary or news, then TV must take extreme care ...

"Caducean Whisks" commented on Jill's Blog "3 Weddings & a Funeral & so much more on Santorini".The name 'Santorini' is so evocative, isn't it, both of past and of present? I've never been there - been slightly reluctant to go, since it sounds so gorgeous and I wouldn't want to be disappointed. But you've made me wonder again, if it might be ...
