Wincanton library seems safe from the cuts – for the moment. As an economy, the opening hours have been reduced so that anyone with a job, or at school will be unable to use it without difficulty and inconvenience.
The inevitable consequence of this will be that library usage will reduce, enabling the Faceless Ones in County Hall to say that owing to lack of demand, the library will close. Perfect!
Film Review – The King’s Peach – now showing at Yeovil
The King’s Peach
Right royal carry-on with lovable cockney lad Harry Oik (Jim Dale) caught stealing a peach from the greenhouse of garrulous tyrant George VI (James Roberston Justice). The madcap fun starts when our hero meets the Queen Mother (Joan Sims) and the two beautiful princesses (Keira Knightly and Angela Douglas), who show him Krek Waiter’s Peak. The film climaxes with all the pomp and glamour of a traditional laugh-a-minute royal wedding, with Sid James starring as an unlikely Archbishop of Canterbury. Fun, fun, fun.
We apologise for a misprint in the headline. It should of course read NOT showing at Yeovil – or anywhere else! -Ed
