One of my weaknesses [I have them] is I thin-slice people I meet, which is to say that I pigeon-hole them in a few seconds rather than allow their character to shine through.... in its own time.
I don't mind confessing, I thought Peter Owen-Jones was kitted out in the best New Forest squire-attire and was thus fake.
I couldn't have been more wrong. After multiple WOWs I was a fan. I know the New Forest and Lymington fairly well, but I probably quadrupled my knowledge listening to Peter. WOW indeed.
If only the BBC could sell off their propaganda division?
Let the talent flourish I say. It's boastful to pigeonhole this kind of filmmaking as unequalled throughout the world.
It's more accurate in my mind, to say no media institution makes more of this quality.
It's a compliment
