    She’s a wonderful writer. Number the Stars was my favorite.

    So what is your point about identifying the authors as “ privileged”. That word is thrown about so freely these days, it has begun to loose its meaning for me. So please clarify.

    He is such a charming man. Rebecca Eaton means well but comes across as a bit distracting when people just want to listen to Lord Fellowes. I still enjoyed watching.

    TH-cam is pushing an algorithm of racist garbage around. This video is trash and the person who made it is racist trash too.

    This interviewer is not a good listener. When you have a genius orator and storyteller as a subject, best to sit back and keep your mouth shut and your papers quiet. The constant interruptions are an indication of the woman's impatienve and arrogance. Her need to speak herself is cringe worthy not to mention very disrespectful.
