Wonderful performance, I don't think she could quite believe what Lollobrigida had done in front of her, but I think she ought to buy her a drink as it certainly helped her along.

Cover of David Mitchell's Unruly. A History of England's Kings and Queens.
These two on the go. Manics book is a brilliant insight to a brilliant band. Mitchell's book is okay if you like to read a transcript of David Mitchell reading a history book and commenting in a David Mitchell way...would probably be better as an audio book.
