I am eager to see this film again tonight at 1030 pm on BBC1

Alan Bennett's memories of the outspoken and unconventional Miss Shepherd, who resided in a van parked on the street. Offering space on his front drive for her vehicle began a bizarre arrangement that he feels guilty about later exploiting in print. Acclaimed comedy drama from BBC Films based on actual events.

Not seen the film, but have read the book.  Two slightly bizarre characters interacting, makes interesting and at times thought-provoking reading. Must remember to tune in, probably on iPlayer later.

Absolutely superb film.  I've seen it but it's well worth a second viewing.  Thanks Clementino.

This will be my second viewing of the  late Dame Maggie Smith as the lady.

Lovely music too, Beethoven, Chopin...

It's a mostly true story.  We watched it again quite recently.
