Interesting little piece. Arginald would not like it. Too many big words !
Mr Valleywater is best left with cloth cap & ferrets. I wished the producers
had not felt it necessary to keep flashing up chunks of words on the screen,
but otherwise thought-provoking.

I think Will Self says some interesting things - both here and in other monologues and debates that I've seen. He is a modern-day cultural commentator, a bit like Martin Amis.
