Yes Gareth, the same BBC that gave us is latest production of Oliver
Twist casting a black girl as Nancy. Ideology over reality every
time.

It wouldn't occur to you that she might have been the best actress at the
audition would it? I saw it and thought she was a brilliant Nancy and don't
see what difference it makes. I don't recall the line in the novel "Bill
Sikes' girlfriend, the poor white girl, Nancy....."

No Dave it didn't occurr to me that she was the best actress for the
job, not in a million years. Taking your logic a step further, how
about Hugh Grant playing the part of Nelson Mandella, now that would
cause riots amongst the Guardinista's .

As for

"I don't recall the line in the novel "Bill Sikes' girlfriend, the
poor white girl, Nancy"

Silly me I forgot the novel Winston Twista was set against the
backdrop of the Notting Hill Carnival..
