  1. Congratulations upon Helena Bonham Carter winning the first stage drama for her depiction of children's writer, Enid Blyton. Incidentally, my book on Enid Blyton, titled, The Famous Five: A Personal Anecdotage (www.bbotw.com) was first published at roughly the same time Carter's Enid Blyton TV biopic was being shown.
