HI


Anyone have suggestions on books that you'd love to see made into a film or TV show? If it's recent, super popular, or prize-winning it's probably already been done, is being done, or has been considered and rejected.


Ideally old(er), possibly thought not necessarily more obscure, books. Especially anything with social impact. True stories are a plus!!


Thanks

In Brit terms I've always thought that if the Americans had illustrious historic figures like:

Hereward the Wake, Boudicca, Alfred the Great, Nelson, Francis Drake, Walter Raleigh and Captain Cook, they would have made big budget films about them


And then there are the more controversial ones:

Clive of India, Gordon of Khartoum, Cecil Rhodes

    • Thanks jazzer, jazzer,  Jazzer 😀 I don't know either of those pubs, believe it or not, so I will google the Heaton Arms, thank you (and thanks for the tip about the easiest way!) ETA: Well, I googled it and apparently it was demolished in 2005 🤣 but I guess it was somewhere near Heaton Road. ETA again: It looks like I can get a 63 or 363 from the stop near the end of Barry Road, so assuming that's open that would be easier.
    • Niko hardly needs another recommendation but we use him regularly. He's good value, he turns up when he says - or tells you if he can't - and definitely knows what he is doing. 
    • Ian the guy who used to own the garage left last year. The place is run by someone else now. Ian was our reliable mechanic for many years, a sad loss. We now use Turners on Barry Road.   
    • Agreed that Niko is really good: he was helpful and explained everything in detail, and did a good job fixing the problem I had. He was also honest rather than trying to drum up a bigger (more expensive) job for himself by telling me everything needed replacing etc. He charged a very reasonable rate. Will definitely call him when I need a plumber again and would recommend!
